Item 1.01                                           Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On March 15, 2013, MAXIMUS, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an unsecured five-year revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. as arranger and book manager with Bank of America, N.A. and HSBC Bank USA, N.A. as co-syndication agents and SunTrust Bank as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s existing revolving credit agreement entered into in January 2008.

 

The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving line of credit up to $100 million and, subject to customary conditions, an uncommitted $50 million increase option. The facility is available for general corporate purposes, including working capital expenses, capital expenditures and certain permitted acquisitions. The arrangement terminates on the fifth anniversary of entry into the Credit Agreement, at which time all outstanding borrowings must be repaid.

 

The interest rates under the Credit Agreement are floating rates that, at the Company’s option, equal a base rate, a Eurodollar rate or an index rate plus, in each case, an applicable percentage based upon the Company’s total leverage ratio.

 

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants including a maximum total leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The Credit Agreement contains customary restrictions on liens, sales of assets, agreements containing certain restrictions, affiliate transactions and other customary restrictive covenants. In the event that the Company’s total leverage ratio equals or exceeds 2.5:1.0, the Credit Agreement also includes restrictions or limits on our ability to guarantee or incur additional indebtedness, make loans or investments, declare dividends and buy back common stock.

 

The obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by material domestic subsidiaries of the Company. In the event that the Company’s total leverage ratio equals or exceeds 2.5:1.0 or the Company incurs a certain level of indebtedness outside of the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement will become secured by the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries.

 

This summary of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the redacted Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
