Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Creation of a Direct
On September 11, 2009, Volt Information Sciences, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the "Amendment") among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, the financial institutions party thereto as lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and L/C issuer. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Credit Agreement dated as of February 28, 2008 (the "Credit Agreement") was amended to, among other things:
• Amend the definition of EBITDA (i.e., earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to: (a) add back (i) losses on sales of assets outside the ordinary course and (ii) non-recurring restructuring and impairment charges (subject to a cumulative cap of $50.0 million for such charges after April 30, 2009, of which no more than $20.0 million may be cash charges or accruals or reserves for cash payments in any future period); and (b) subtract gains on sales of assets outside the ordinary course.
• Eliminate the requirement to give pro-forma effect to the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement for certain acquisitions and dispositions that do not exceed $10 million.
• Increase the applicable rates set forth in the pricing grid for the facility fee and the interest rates payable on loans depending on various degrees of Company consolidated leverage.
• Eliminate the $25 million limit on alternate currency borrowings.
• Eliminate the requirement for the Company to deliver a pro forma compliance certificate to the banks for certain acquisitions of $5 million or less.
• Add Volt Delta Resources, LLC, Volt Delta Resource Holdings, Inc. and LSSi Data Corp. (collectively, the "Volt Delta Group") as guarantors and generally provide that the Volt Delta Group will be subject to the same limitations applicable to other material subsidiaries of the Company. The Volt Delta Group previously had been treated separately under the Credit Agreement in light of the separate credit facility that had been maintained by the Volt Delta Group. That separate credit facility was repaid in August 2009.
• Add additional "baskets" for (i) indebtedness of foreign subsidiaries of up to $7.5 million, (ii) liens to secure up to $10 million of indebtedness of foreign subsidiaries, and (iii) unsecured indebtedness of up to $15 million (previously $10 million).
The foregoing description of the provisions of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full and complete copy thereof which is included as Exhibit 4.1(q) to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by this reference. In addition, the original Credit Agreement was attached as Exhibit 4.1(p) to a Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 5, 2008; such Form 8-K and Exhibit 4.1(p) thereto are also incorporated herein by this reference.
