CAMP CalAmp Corp

CalAmp Corp. (NASDAQ:CAMP), a leading provider of wireless products, services and solutions, today announced the amendment of its credit facility with the Bank of Montreal and other financial institutions. The credit facility includes a term loan, with a principal balance of $25.3 million as of October 24, 2008, and an undrawn working capital revolver. Under the terms of the amended credit agreement announced today, the maturity date of the term loan and revolver has been extended by six months to December 31, 2009 from June 30, 2009. The annual interest rate on the term loan has been increased by 200 basis points across all levels of the pricing grid and now stands at LIBOR plus 3.75%, or approximately 7.5% based on prevailing LIBOR. The commitment and availability of the revolver are unchanged, except that the interest rate on future draws on the revolver has increased by 200 basis points to LIBOR plus 5.0% as a result of this amendment. "I am pleased with the successful amendment of our credit facility despite today�s very difficult credit market conditions," said Rick Gold, CalAmp�s President and Chief Executive Officer. "We expect to continue reducing the principal balance of the term loan with our cash flows from operations, enabling us to transition to an asset-based loan by the new maturity date." The reader is referred to a Form 8-K that will be filed shortly with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a more complete description of the terms and conditions of this credit agreement amendment.
