Line of Credit
We have a Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement, as amended, (“Revolving Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) that provides us with a $15,000 revolving line of credit. See Note 8 for further discussion regarding the Term Loan entered into with PNC. The Revolving Credit Agreement has a stated maturity date of January 24, 2016, if not renewed. The Revolving Credit Agreement includes a lockbox agreement and a subjective acceleration clause and, as a result, we have classified the revolving line of credit as a current liability. The Revolving Credit Agreement is collateralized by a security interest in substantially all of our assets, and PNC is also secured by an inventory repurchase agreement with Whirlpool Corporation for Whirlpool purchases only. We also issued a $750 letter of credit in favor of Whirlpool Corporation. The Revolving Credit Agreement requires, starting with the fiscal quarter ending March 30, 2014, and continuing at the end of each quarter thereafter, that we meet a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0, measured on a trailing twelve-month basis. The Revolving Credit Agreement limits investments we can purchase, the amount of other debt and leases we can incur, the amount of loans we can issue to our affiliates and the amount we can spend on fixed assets, along with prohibiting the payment of dividends. The affiliate loan balance is to be capped at $300 on December 31, 2014, and thereafter. As of January 3, 2015 and December 28, 2013, we were in compliance with all the covenants of the Revolving Credit Agreement.
Our 2015 financial results are being adversely affected by the low scrap prices and, as a result, it is probable that we may not be in compliance with certain covenants of the Revolving Credit Agreement at some point in 2015. In the event that we are not in compliance with our covenants it is possible our PNC Term Loan could be classified as a current obligation until such time as we obtain a waiver of compliance or amend the terms of our agreement with PNC.
The interest rate on the Revolving Credit Agreement is PNC Base Rate plus 1.75%, or 1-, 2- or 3-month PNC LIBOR Rate plus 2.75%. The PNC Base Rate shall mean, for any day, a fluctuating per annum rate of interest equal to the highest of (i) the interest rate per annum announced from time to time by PNC at its prime rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Open Rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1%. As of January 3, 2015, and December 28, 2013, the weighted average interest rate was 3.30% and 4.27%, respectively, which included both PNC LIBOR Rate and PNC Base Rate loans, and the outstanding balance under the Revolving Credit Agreement was $9,237 and $9,661, respectively. The amount of revolving borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement is based on a formula using accounts receivable and inventories. We may not have access to the full $15,000 revolving line of credit due to the formula using accounts receivable and inventories, the amount of the letter of credit issued in favor of Whirlpool Corporation and the amount of outstanding loans between PNC and our AAP joint venture. As of January 3, 2015, and December 28, 2013, our available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Agreement was $4,882 and $3,966, respectively.
