Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
As previously announced, Technitrol amended its Credit Agreement with JP Morgan. The following is a brief description of the terms and conditions of the amendment that are material to Technitrol:
* an increase in the maximum debt from 3.25 times EBITDA to 4.5 times, decreasing to 3.0 times by December 2010;
* an increase in the EBITDA coverage of fixed charges (mandatory principal, cash interest and tax payments) from 1.5 times under the original agreement to 2.0 times (through the end of the second quarter of 2009), decreasing to 1.25 times by March 2011;
* a return to the bank group of $125 million in unused borrowing capacity, reducing the facility from $500 million to $375 million (comprising the existing $200 million term loan and $175 million in revolving credit). Technitrol had drawn approximately $136 million of revolving credit as of December 26, 2008;
* a pledge of a group of selected assets, which may be eliminated at the company's option when debt decreases to less than 2.5 times EBITDA; and
* increases in the interest rate from a previous maximum of floating LIBOR plus 150 basis points to a maximum of LIBOR plus 325 basis points with no minimum LIBOR provision. At current LIBOR rates, the company's borrowing rate remains less than 5% per annum.
The foregoing summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Investors in Technitrol and other persons not party to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement should not for any purpose rely on the covenants, representations or warranties made in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, or consider them as statements of fact or as representing the current state of Technitrol's affairs.
