Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 31, 2014, Mistras Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Third Amendment and Modification Agreement (the “Amendment”), dated October 31, 2014, to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”), dated December 21, 2011, with Bank of America, N.A., as agent for the lenders and a lender, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Keybank, National Association and TD Bank, N.A., as lenders.  The Amendment increased the Company’s revolving line of credit to $175 million and provides that under certain circumstances the line of credit can be increased by up to $50 million, for a total potential line of credit of $225 million.  The Amendment also extended the original maturity date of the Credit Agreement from December 20, 2016 to October 30, 2019.  Interest rates on loans under the Credit Agreement remain the same, except if the Company’s Funded Debt Leverage Ratio exceeds 2.5 to 1, the maximum rate is now LIBOR plus 1.75% (previously Libor plus 2.0%), or the base rate less .35% (previously base rate less .25%).  In addition, the Amendment modified the financial covenant for Funded Debt Leverage Ratio by increasing the maximum permitted ratio to 3.25 to 1 from the previous ratio of 3.0 to 1.

 

All other materials terms of the Credit Agreement are unchanged, and the Credit Agreement continues to be secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company.
