Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 17, 2009, HealthStream, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”) entered into the Third Amendment to Loan Agreement, by and between the Company and SunTrust Bank, a Georgia banking corporation (“SunTrust”) in connection with the revolving credit facility previously extended to the Company by SunTrust (the “Revolving Credit Facility”).
The material terms of the Third Amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility are as follows:
Maturity:
The maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility was extended to July 21, 2011.
Collateral and Guarantees:
The obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries.
Interest:
The interest rate was changed to LIBOR plus a margin determined in accordance with a pricing grid.
Fees:
The Company was not subject to any amendment fees, but did incur a 10 basis point commitment fee and agreed to reimburse SunTrust expenses in connection with extending the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company’s fee for unused funds was increased from 10 to 25 basis points per annum of the average daily unused amount of the loan.
Certain Covenants:
The Company is required to meet certain financial tests under the Revolving Credit Facility. Under the Amendment, the Company is also subject to a Tangible Net Worth requirement, as defined. The Tangible Net Worth covenant was part of the original Revolving Credit Facility and was eliminated in a subsequent amendment. This Third Amendment reinstates the Tangible Net Worth covenant.
The foregoing description of the amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Third Amendment to Loan Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.
