Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Effective June 30, 2013, Actuate Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with US Bank National Association (“US Bank”) as a lender, issuing bank, and administrative agent through and until June 29, 2017 (“Credit Agreement”). A copy of the Credit Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Credit Agreement for working capital, acquisitions, issuance of commercial and standby letters of credit, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.

The Credit Agreement allows for cash borrowings and the issuance of letters of credit under a secured revolving credit facility of up to a maximum of $50.0 million (with a $10.0 million sublimit for letters of credit and an accordion feature whereby the facility may be increased by up to $25.0 million). Interest will accrue based on, at the Company’s election, (i) LIBOR plus an applicable spread of between 1.50% and 2.00% based on Company’s consolidated total cash flow leverage ratio or (ii) the greater of: (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus one half of one percent, (b) one month LIBOR plus one percent, and (c) U.S. Bank’s prime rate, in each case plus an applicable spread of between 0.50% and 1.00% based on Company’s consolidated total cash flow leverage ratio. The Company will be required to make interest payments on a monthly basis. The Credit Agreement provides for certain covenants of Borrower during the term of the credit facility, including maintenance of a consolidated total cash flow leverage ratio of at least 2.50 to 1.00, and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.75 to 1.00. The Credit Agreement includes limitations on the Company’s ability to incur debt, grant liens, make acquisitions, make certain restricted payments such as dividend payments, and dispose of assets. The events of default under the Credit Agreement include payment defaults, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness, breaches of covenants and bankruptcy events. In the case of a continuing event of default, the lenders under the Credit Agreement may, among other remedies, eliminate their commitments to make credit available, declare due all unpaid principal amounts outstanding, and require cash collateral for any letter of credit obligations and foreclose on all collateral.
