The Company maintains an asset-based revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility") that provides for, among other things, a revolving commitment in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30,000, which is subject to a borrowing base derived from certain receivables, inventory, and property and equipment. The Credit Facility matures on April 26, 2017. At October 1, 2016, our outstanding revolving loan balance was $0.

On May 6, 2016, the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) entered into a Ninth Amendment to
Credit Agreement and Second Amendment to Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), which amended the Credit
Agreement previously entered into by the Company, certain of its domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan on April 26, 2012 (as
amended, the “Credit Agreement”) and the Pledge and Security Agreement previously entered into by the Company, certain of
its domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan on April 26, 2012. Pursuant to the Amendment, letters of credit can be issued if after giving effect to such issuance, the letters of credit exposure shall not exceed $15,000, which was an increase from the previously agreed upon $6,000. As of October 1, 2016, our outstanding letters of credit balance was $9,283.
Loans drawn under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a per annum rate equal to either (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.25%, or (b) a “base rate” subject to an increase or reduction by up to 0.25% per annum based on the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio. At October 1, 2016, the Company’s LIBOR based interest rate was 1.81% (on $0 principal) and the Company’s prime based rate was 3.25% (on $0 principal). A commitment fee, based upon undrawn availability under the Credit Facility bearing interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum, is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, cash receipts are deposited into a lock-box, which are at the Company’s discretion unless the “cash dominion period” is in effect, during which cash receipts will be used to reduce amounts owing under the Credit Agreement. The cash dominion period is triggered in an event of default or if excess availability is less than the $3,600 for five business days (on a cumulative basis) and will continue until, during the preceding 60 consecutive days, no event of default existed and excess availability has been greater than $3,600 at all times (with such trigger subject to adjustment based on the Company's revolving commitment). In addition, in the event that “excess availability,” as defined under the Credit Agreement, is less than $2,400, the Company shall be required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 (with the trigger subject to adjustment based on the Company's revolving commitment).
The Company's excess availability was $13,871 at October 1, 2016. As of the date hereof, the cash dominion period has not been in effect; accordingly, no principal payments are due.
