Loan and Security Agreement

 

In June 2013, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “SVB Agreement”), which consists of a revolving credit facility of $13.0 million (subject to certain borrowing base restrictions) and term borrowings to fund purchases of property and equipment. All borrowings under the SVB Agreement are collateralized by the general assets of the Company. The revolving credit facility has a variable rate of interest of prime (as published in the Wall Street Journal) or LIBOR plus 2.50%, as selected by the Company. The rate was 3.25% at March 31, 2014. In addition, the Company pays an annual commitment fee of $20,000 and a quarterly unused line of credit fee of 0.375% based on the difference between the borrowing commitment of $13.0 million and the then current balance. The SVB Agreement provided for an additional $2.75 million in term borrowings to fund purchase of property and equipment through May 2014, of which $2.0 million was available at March 31, 2014. Term borrowings are payable in 33 equal monthly payments of principal plus interest and bear interest at prime plus 0.50%, which was 3.75% at March 31, 2014.

 

Borrowing under the revolving credit facility is subject to certain collateral restrictions relating primarily to the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory levels. As of March 31, 2014, the total borrowing capacity was approximately $13.0 million, and no borrowings were outstanding. The revolving credit facility has a maturity date of May 29, 2015.

 

The SVB Agreement contains various restrictive and financial covenants and the Company was in compliance with each of these covenants as of March 31, 2014.
