On
September 26, 2005, Celadon Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), Celadon Trucking Services, Inc., a New Jersey corporation
and
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and TruckersB2B, Inc., a
Delaware
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into
an
unsecured Credit Agreement with LaSalle Bank National Association,
as
administrative agent, and LaSalle Bank National Association, Fifth
Third
Bank (Central Indiana), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as lenders,
which
matures on September 24, 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit
Agreement will be used to refinance the Company's existing credit
facility
and provide for ongoing working capital needs and general corporate
purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are based, at the
option
of the Company, on a base rate equal to the greater of the federal
funds
rate plus 0.5% and the administrative agent's prime rate or LIBOR
plus an
applicable margin that is adjusted quarterly between 0.75% and 1.125%
based on cash flow coverage. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by
Celadon
E-Commerce, Inc., Celadon Canada, Inc., and Servicios de Transportacion
Jaguar, S.A. de C.V., each of which is a subsidiary of the
Company.
The
Credit Agreement has a maximum revolving borrowing limit of $50.0
million,
and the Company may increase the revolving borrowing limit by an
additional $20.0 million, to a total of $70.0 million. Letters of
credit
are limited to an aggregate commitment of $15.0 million and a swing
line
facility has a limit of $5.0 million. A commitment fee that is adjusted
quarterly between 0.15% and 0.225% per annum based on cash flow coverage
is due on the daily unused portion of the Credit Agreement. The Credit
Agreement contains certain restrictions and covenants in certain
circumstances relating to, among other things, dividends, tangible
net
worth, cash flow, mergers, consolidations, acquisitions, and dispositions,
and total indebtedness. The Credit Agreement includes usual and customary
events of default for a facility of this nature and provides that,
upon
the occurrence and continuation of an event of default, payment of
all
amounts payable under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated, and
the
Lenders’ commitments may be terminated.
