Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As described in Item 2.03 below, on August 3, 2012, we amended and restated our existing credit agreement with U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association. The disclosure provided in Item 2.03 of this report is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

 

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On August 3, 2012, we entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement with U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and LC Issuer and the Lenders, Arrangers and Agents party thereto.

The third amended and restated credit agreement expanded our existing credit facility and provides for a credit facility consisting of a $170 million term loan and a revolving line of credit up to a maximum aggregate amount of $125 million, of which up to $10 million may be used for Swing Line Loans (as defined in the credit agreement) and up to $25 million may be used for letters of credit. The credit facility matures on August 3, 2017.

Advances under the credit facility will bear interest at either (a) the Eurocurrency Rate or (b) the Base Rate (as such terms are defined in the credit agreement).

As security for the credit facility, we and our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries have granted a first priority lien on (i) certain real property owned by our domestic subsidiaries; and (ii) substantially all of our and our domestic subsidiaries’ tangible and intangible personal property, including a pledge of the capital stock of certain of our direct and indirect subsidiaries. The obligations under the credit agreement are also guaranteed pursuant to a guaranty agreement entered into by each of our domestic subsidiaries.

Our credit agreement requires us to meet financial tests, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum cash flow leverage ratio. In addition, our credit agreement contains negative covenants limiting, among other things, additional indebtedness, capital expenditures, transactions with affiliates, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments and advances, prepayments of debt, mergers and acquisitions, and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements.

Our credit agreement also contains customary events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, events of bankruptcy and insolvency, failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the credit agreement to be in full force and effect, and a change of control of our business.

A copy of the credit agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.23 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the credit agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the credit agreement.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On August 3, 2012, we announced our acquisition of substantially all of the operating assets and business of R & M Transportation, Inc. and all of the outstanding stock of Sortino Transportation, Inc., providers of truckload services based in Omaha, Nebraska, for approximately $24.4 million, plus an earn-out not to exceed $5 million. The acquisition was financed with borrowings under our second amended and restated credit agreement described in Item 2.03 of our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 6, 2011. As described in Item 2.03 below, on August 3, 2012, we amended and restated our existing credit agreement with U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association. A copy of the press release announcing these events is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
