ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On September 8, 2006, LaCrosse Footwear, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as lender. The new agreement supersedes the former credit agreement between the parties and extends the term of the credit arrangement to June 30, 2009. The former credit agreement between the parties was scheduled to expire on June 30, 2007.
As with the superseded credit agreement, amounts borrowed under the revised agreement are primarily secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. The maximum aggregate principal amount of borrowings allowed from January 1 to May 31 remains $17.5 million. The maximum aggregate principal amount of borrowings allowed from June 1 to December 31 remains $30 million. There continues to be no borrowing base limitations under the new agreement.
In connection with the amended and restated credit agreement, the Company executed and delivered a new revolving line of credit note to supersede the note under the prior credit agreement. The new note provides for an interest rate at the Company’s option of the prime rate minus 0.50%, or LIBOR plus 1.5%. The rate on the superseded note was the prime rate, or LIBOR plus 1.5%, also at the Company’s option.
Copies of the amended and restated credit agreement and the new note are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this report and are incorporated herein. The foregoing descriptions of the agreement and note do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such exhibits.
