Item 1.01               Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On July 16, 2010, Comfort Systems USA, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amended and restated senior credit facility (the “Facility”) arranged by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and provided by a syndicate of banks including Bank of Texas, N.A., Capital One, N.A., Regions Bank, and Branch Bank & Trust Company (BB&T). The Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets except for assets related to projects subject to surety bonds.  The Facility consists of a revolving credit facility that provides a $125 million line of credit to the Company.   This line of credit replaces the Company’s prior credit facility, which was entered into on February 20, 2007.

 

The new Facility will expire in July 2014.  The Facility contains only two financial covenants, which are:

 

Leverage Ratio — The Facility requires that the ratio of the Company’s Consolidated Total Indebtedness to its Consolidated EBITDA not exceed 2.50.

 

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio — The Facility requires that the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA, less non-financed capital expenditures, tax provision, dividends and amounts used to repurchase stock to (b) the sum of interest expense and scheduled principal payments be at least 2.00; provided that the numerator of the fixed charge coverage ratio will be reduced by stock repurchases and dividends as specified above only if the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio (Consolidated Total Indebtedness minus cash in excess of $30 million, divided by Consolidated EBITDA) exceeds 1.0 to 1.0.  Capital expenditures, tax provision, dividends and stock repurchase payments are defined under the Facility for purposes of this covenant to be amounts for the four quarters ending as of any given quarterly covenant compliance measurement date.

 

Other Restrictions — The Facility permits acquisitions of up to $5 million per transaction, provided that the aggregate purchase price of such an acquisition and of acquisitions in the preceding 12 month period does not exceed $10 million.  However, these limitations only apply when the Company’s Net Leverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 1.5 to 1.0.

 

The Company also issued a press release announcing the new Facility.  A copy of the press release has been furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report.

 

The foregoing description does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights and obligations under the Facility.  The above description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Facility, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report.
