Item 1.01                                             Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On November 21, 2005, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) by and among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) and Bank of America, N.A. (as assignee of Banc of America Leasing & Capital LLC, as successor to Fleet Capital Corporation) (the “Lender”).  This Amendment amends certain provisions of that Credit and Security Agreement between the Borrowers and the Lender dated as of February 28, 2003, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of March 24, 2004 and that certain Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of June 28, 2004.

 

The Amendment increases the Company’s revolving credit facility from $12 million to $17 million, subject to available collateral, and extends the revolving credit facility’s maturity date to February 29, 2009.  Extensions of credit under this facility are subject to available collateral based upon accounts receivable and inventory levels.  Therefore, the entire $17 million may not be available to the Company.  The amount of availability can fluctuate significantly.  Subject to terms and conditions, amounts borrowed under the facility may be used to fund acquisitions by the Company.

 

The Amendment also restates the terms of the Company’s previously existing term loans.  The Amendment provides for two equipment term loans in an aggregate amount of approximately $3.7 million, each of which is collateralized by the Company’s property, plant and equipment.  The Amendment also provides for a real estate term loan in the amount of approximately $2.3 million with a 15-year straight-line amortization that is collateralized by a mortgage on the Company’s real estate located in Georgetown, Massachusetts.  The Company’s equipment term loans and its real estate term loan are due November 21, 2011.

 

The Amendment calls for interest of Prime or LIBOR plus 1.25% on the revolving credit facility and each of the term loans.  Both the revolving credit facility and the term loans allow for a decrease or increase in interest rates based upon the Company’s operating performance.  Under the Amendment, the Company is subject to certain financial covenants including maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage and maximum capital expenditures covenants.
