The Third Amendment: (i) allows certain Credit Agreement borrowings (designated as “Specified Revolving Loans”) with a higher applicable margin than other revolving loans; (ii) modifies existing restrictive covenants governing the payment of dividends and other cash distributions in order to permit such restricted payments so long as the Company maintains a maximum consolidated leverage ratio less than 2.00 to 1.00 and maintains a minimum total liquidity (cash and revolver capacity) of at least $75 million, after giving effect to any such payments; and (iii) reduces the maximum consolidated leverage ratio to 3.25 to 1.00, from 3.75 to 1:00. The Third Amendment became effective on April 21, 2015. The foregoing brief description is qualified in its entirety by a copy of the Third Amendment, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
