ITEM 1.01 |
ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT |
On June 28, 2013, NIC Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amendment to extend its $10 million unsecured revolving credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. to May 1, 2015. This revolving credit facility is available to finance working capital, issue letters of credit and finance general corporate purposes. The Company can obtain letters of credit in an aggregate amount of $5 million, which reduces the maximum amount available for borrowing under the facility. Interest on amounts borrowed is payable at a base rate or a Eurodollar rate, in each case as defined in the agreement. The base rate is equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% or the bank’s prime rate. Fees on outstanding letters of credit are either 1.50% (if the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio is less than or equal to 1.25:1) or 1.75% (if the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio is greater than 1.25:1) of face value per annum.
The terms of the agreement provide for customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The amendment also continues to require the Company to maintain compliance with the following financial covenants (in each case, as defined in the agreement):
● Consolidated minimum annual EBITDA of at least $12 million, computed quarterly on a rolling 12-month basis;
● Consolidated tangible net worth of at least $36 million; and
● Consolidated maximum leverage ratio of 1.5:1.
A copy of the amendment is furnished with this report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated by reference herein.
