The Company’s credit facility consists of term loans A and B−1 and a $150.0 million revolving credit facility (“credit facility”).
The interest rate under Term Loan A and the revolving credit facility is, at the Company’s option, either (a) the greater of the
federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% or the prime rate (“ABR”), plus a rate not to exceed 0.75%, which varies according to the
Company’s leverage ratio or (b) LIBOR plus a rate not to exceed 1.75%, which varies according to Company’s leverage ratio. The
interest rate for Term Loan B−1 is, at the Company’s option, either (a) ABR, plus a rate of 0.50% or (b) LIBOR plus 1.50%, in each
case so long as the Company’s leverage ratio remains at or below certain levels (but in any event not to exceed 0.75% in the case of
ABR loans and 1.75% in the case of LIBOR loans). The weighted average interest rates related to the Company’s term debt was 4.7%
and 5.1% for the years ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively, which included the impact of interest rate swaps on 73%
and 71% of the Company’s term debt, respectively.
The credit facility contains certain customary financial and non−financial covenants. These covenants impose restrictions on
additional indebtedness, liens, investments, advances, guarantees and mergers and acquisitions. These covenants also place restrictions
on asset sales, sale and leaseback transactions, dividends, payments between the Company and its subsidiaries and certain transactions
with affiliates.
The financial covenants limit the maximum amount of capital expenditures to approximately $200.0 million per fiscal year over
the term of the facility, subject to certain financial ratios. Following the end of each fiscal year, if the Company’s leverage ratio exceeds
3.0x, the Company is required to prepay the term debt in an amount equal to 50% of excess cash flow (as defined in the credit facility
agreement) for such fiscal year. The Company has not been required to make any prepayments in connection with these covenants.
There are other events and transactions, such as certain asset sales, sale and leaseback transactions resulting in aggregate net proceeds
over $2.5 million in any fiscal year, proceeds from casualty events and incurrence of debt that may trigger additional mandatory
prepayment.
The facility also allows the Company to make dividend payments, subject to certain covenant restrictions. As of June 30, 2010, the
Company believes it was in compliance with the financial covenants of the credit facility.
Provided that the Company is in compliance with certain financial covenants, the facility allows the Company to request one or
more tranches of incremental term loans up to a maximum amount of $150.0 million, although no lender is obligated to provide any
incremental term loans unless it so agrees. As of June 30, 2010, the amount available under the revolving credit facility was
$115.8 million, net of $34.2 million of irrevocable standby letters of credit outstanding. BKC incurs a commitment fee on the unused
revolving credit facility at the rate of 0.50% multiplied by the unused portion.
