Credit Agreement

 

        On June 19, 2014, Envestnet and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement (the "Original Credit Agreement") with a group of banks (the "Banks"), for which Bank of Montreal is acting as administrative agent, pursuant to which the Banks agreed to provide an unsecured revolving credit facility of $70,000 with a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit of $5,000. Subject to certain conditions, Envestnet had the right to increase the facility by up to $25,000. The Original Credit Agreement was scheduled to terminate on June 19, 2017, at which time any aggregate principal amount of borrowings outstanding would become payable in full. Any borrowings made under the Original Credit Agreement accrued interest at rates between 1.25 percent and 1.75 percent above LIBOR based on the Company's total leverage ratio. There was also a commitment fee equal to 0.25 percent per annum on the daily unused portion of the facility.

 

        On December 8, 2014, Envestnet and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a first amendment to the Original Credit Agreement (collectively with the Original Credit Agreement, the "Credit Agreement"), dated June 19, 2014. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the amount of the unsecured revolving credit facility was increased from $70,000 to $100,000 with a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit of $5,000. Any borrowings made under the Credit Agreement accrued interest at rates between 1.50 percent and 3.25 percent above LIBOR based on the Company's total leverage ratio. There is also a commitment fee equal to 0.25 percent per annum on the daily unused portion of the facility. Subject to certain conditions, Envestnet has the right to increase the facility by up to $25,000. The Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on December 8, 2017.

 

        Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will be guaranteed by substantially all of Envestnet's U.S. subsidiaries. Proceeds under the Credit Agreement may be used to finance capital expenditures, to finance working capital, to finance permitted acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.

 

        The Credit Agreement contains customary conditions, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The covenants include certain financial covenants requiring Envestnet to maintain compliance with a maximum senior leverage ratio, a maximum total leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and minimum adjusted EBITDA, and provisions that limit the ability of Envestnet and its subsidiaries to incur debt, make investments, sell assets, create liens, engage in transactions with affiliates, engage in mergers and acquisitions, pay dividends and other restricted payments, grant negative pledges and change their business activities. As of December 31, 2014, there were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The Company incurred interest expense of $259 for the year ended December 31, 2014 related to the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2014.

 

Convertible Notes

 

        On December 15, 2014, the Company issued $172,500 of Convertible Notes. Net proceeds from the offering were $166,967. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.75 percent per annum payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2015.

 

        The Convertible Notes are general unsecured obligations, subordinated in right of payment to our obligations under our Credit Agreement. The Convertible Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company's existing and future senior indebtedness and will be senior in right of payment to any of the Company's future subordinated indebtedness. The Convertible Notes will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of any of our subsidiaries, other than to the extent the Convertible Notes are guaranteed in the future by our subsidiaries as described in the indenture and will be effectively subordinated to and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. Certain of our subsidiaries guarantee our obligations under our Credit Agreement.

 

        Upon the occurrence of a "fundamental change", as defined in the indenture, the holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the Convertible Notes for cash at 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes being purchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

 

        The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock under certain circumstances prior to maturity at a conversion rate of 15.9022 shares per $1 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which represents a conversion price of $62.88 per share, subject to adjustment under certain conditions. Holders may convert their Convertible Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceeding July 1, 2019, only under the following circumstances: (a) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2015 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the calendar quarter in which the conversion occurs, is more than 130% of the conversion price of the Convertible Notes in effect on each applicable trading day; (b) during the five consecutive business-day period following any five consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes for each such trading day was less than 98% of the last reported sale price of our common stock on such date multiplied by the then-current conversion rate; or (c) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as defined in the indenture.

 

        Upon conversion, the Company may pay cash, shares of the Company's common stock or a combination of cash and stock, as determined by the Company in its discretion.

 

        The Company has separately accounted for the liability and equity components of the Convertible Notes by allocating the proceeds from issuance of the Convertible Notes between the liability component and the embedded conversion option, or equity component. This allocation was done by first estimating an interest rate at the time of issuance for similar notes that do not include the embedded conversion option. The Company allocated $26,618 to the equity component, net of offering costs of $882. The Company recorded a discount on the Convertible Notes of $27,500 which will be accreted and recorded as additional interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes. During 2014, the Company recognized $203 in accretion related to the discount. The effective interest rate of the liability component of the Convertible Notes is equal to the stated interest rate plus the accretion of original issue discount. The effective interest rate on the liability component of the Convertible Notes for the year ended December 31, 2014 was 6.1%.

 

        In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company incurred $4,651 of issuance costs, which are recorded in other non-current assets (see Note 7). These costs are being amortized and are recorded as additional interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes.

 

        Interest expense on the Convertible Notes was comprised of the following:
