The Amendment provides, among other matters, that (1) the maturity date of the Credit Agreement is extended from August 1, 2010 to August 1, 2012, (2) the applicable interest rate ranges from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 1.60% to LIBOR plus 2.60% and (3) the annual commitment fee ranges from 0.15% to 0.40% of the borrowing limit, with the actual rate and fee determined to be based on the company’s credit rating. The Amendment also includes various other revisions to the Credit Agreement, including changes to certain financial and operating covenants. As of August 2, 2010, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
