NOTE 1 CONDENSED FOOTNOTES
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
Commission) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been
condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection
with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Companys
year-end financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2002, as filed with the
Commission.
The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the
Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information
included in this report contains all adjustments (all of which are normal and
recurring) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim
periods. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The
December 29, 2002 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited
financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The Company has announced its intent to sell or otherwise create a joint
venture or strategic alliance for its raised/access flooring business. The
balances of this business have been segregated and reported as discontinued
operations for all periods presented.
NOTE 2 INVENTORIES
Inventories are summarized as follows:
NOTE 3 GOODWILL
We adopted the new standards of accounting for goodwill and other
intangible assets beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. In the second
quarter of 2002, we completed the transitional goodwill impairment test
required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142,
entitled Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. An outside consultant was
used to help prepare valuations of reporting units in accordance with the new
standard, and those valuations were compared with the respective book values of
the reporting units to determine whether any goodwill impairment existed. In
preparing the valuations, past, present and future expectations of performance
were considered. The test showed goodwill impairment in three overseas
reporting units and five Americas reporting units. In all cases, the impairment
primarily was attributable to actual and currently-forecasted revenue and
profitability for the reporting unit being lower (consistent with the
industry-wide decline in carpet sales and related services) than that
anticipated at the time of the acquisition of the reporting unit. The effect of
this accounting change (an after-tax charge of $55.4 million, or $1.11 per
diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2002) has been recorded as the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle effective the first
quarter of fiscal 2002, as required by SFAS 142, and appears in the Companys
results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002. The charge had no cash
effect, and, as required, is presented net of tax.
During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company performed the annual
goodwill impairment test required by SFAS 142 using a methodology similar to
the transitional test. No additional impairment was indicated.
NOTE 4 RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
2002 Restructuring
During 2002, the Company recorded a pre-tax restructuring charge of $23.4
million. The charge reflected: (i) the consolidation of three fabrics
manufacturing facilities; (ii) the further rationalization of the Re:Source
Americas operations; (iii) a worldwide workforce reduction of approximately 206
employees; and (iv) the consolidation of certain European facilities. In the
first six months of 2003, we recognized an additional pre-tax restructuring
charge related to this plan of $4.6 million, primarily related to the
incurrence of facilities consolidation costs and further staff reductions.
Specific elements of the restructuring activities, the related costs and
current status of the plan are discussed below.
-7-
U.S.
Enduring sluggish economic conditions in 2002 caused a decline in demand
for fabrics, floorcovering and related services. In order to better match our
cost structure to the expected revenue base, the Company consolidated three
fabrics manufacturing plants, closed vacated facilities and made other
head-count reductions. In the fourth quarter of 2002, a charge of approximately
$13.2 million was recorded representing the relocation of equipment, the
reduction of carrying value of certain property and equipment, product
rationalization and other costs to consolidate these operations. Additionally,
in the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company recorded approximately $1.7 million
of termination benefits associated with the facility closures and other
head-count reductions. In the first six months of 2003, a charge of
approximately $2.9 million was recorded representing additional costs incurred
to consolidate the three fabrics manufacturing plants, and a charge of
approximately $1.7 million was recorded for additional termination benefits.
Europe/Australia
The softening global economy during 2002 led management to conclude that
further right-sizing of the Europe and Australia operations was necessary. As a
result, the Company elected to consolidate certain production and
administrative facilities throughout Europe and Australia. A charge of
approximately $4.6 million was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2002
representing the reduction of carrying value of the related property and
equipment and other costs to consolidate these operations. Additionally, the
Company recorded approximately $4.0 million of termination benefits associated
with the facility closures.
A summary of the restructuring activities is presented below:
The restructuring charge was comprised of $15.2 million of cash
expenditures for severance benefits and other costs, and $12.8 million of
non-cash charges, primarily for the write-down of carrying value and disposal
of certain assets.
The termination benefits of $7.3 million, primarily related to severance
costs, are a result of aggregate reductions of 271 employees. The staff
reductions as originally planned were expected to be as follows:
As a result of the restructuring, a total of 189 employees were terminated
through December 29, 2002. The charge for termination benefits and other costs
to exit activities incurred during 2002 was reflected as a separately stated
charge against operating income. An additional 82 employees were terminated
during the first six months of 2003.
The following table displays the activity related to the 2002
restructuring for the six-month period ended June 29, 2003:
Termination Benefits
-8-
Other Costs To Exit Activities
2001 Restructuring
During 2001, the Company recorded a pre-tax restructuring charge of $65.1
million. The charge reflected: (i) the withdrawal from the European broadloom
market; (ii) the consolidation in the Companys raised/access flooring
operations; (iii) the further rationalization of the U.S. broadloom operations;
(iv) a worldwide workforce reduction of approximately 838 employees; and (v)
the consolidation of certain non-strategic Re:Source Americas operations. The
Company initially recorded a charge of $62.2 million during the third quarter
of 2001, and in the fourth quarter of 2001 recorded an additional $2.9 million
charge related to pension benefits for terminated European employees. The
Company completed this restructuring plan during the first quarter of 2003.
Specific elements of the restructuring activities, the related costs and
current status of the plan are discussed below.
U.S.
Economic developments had caused a decline in demand for raised/access
flooring, panel fabric and certain of the Companys other products. In order to
better match the cost structure to the expected revenue base, the Company
closed two raised/access flooring plants and one panel fabric plant, eliminated
certain product lines, consolidated certain under-performing distribution
locations and made other head-count reductions. A charge of approximately $28.8
million was recorded representing the reduction of carrying value of the
related property and equipment, impairment of intangible assets and other costs
to close these operations. Additionally, the Company recorded approximately
$5.3 million of termination benefits associated with the facility closures and
other head-count reductions.
Europe
For the past several years leading up to 2001, the Companys European
broadloom operations had negative returns. The softening global economy during
2001, and the events of September 11, 2001 (which severely impacted consumers
of broadloom carpet in the hospitality, leisure and airline businesses) led
management to conclude that positive returns from this operation were unlikely
for the near future. As a result, the Company elected to divest of this
operation. The Company also elected to consolidate certain production and
administrative facilities throughout Europe. A charge of approximately $19.0
million was recorded representing the reduction of carrying value of the
related property and equipment, impairment of intangible assets and other costs
to close or dispose of these operations. Additionally, the Company recorded
approximately $12.0 million of termination benefits associated with the
facility closures.
A summary of the restructuring activities, including activities relating
to the discontinued raised/access flooring business, is presented below:
These amounts include restructuring charges of approximately $10.5 million
related to the discontinued operations of the raised/access flooring business.
The restructuring charge was comprised of $24.0 million of cash
expenditures for severance benefits and other costs and $41.1 million of
non-cash charges, primarily for the write-down of carrying value and disposal
of certain assets.
-9-
The termination benefits of $17.3 million, primarily related to severance
costs, are a result of aggregate reductions of 847 employees. The staff
reductions as originally planned were expected to be as follows:
As a result of the restructuring, a total of 847 employees were terminated
through March 30, 2003 (which completed the 2001 restructuring). The charge for
termination benefits and other costs to exit activities incurred during 2001
was reflected as a separately stated charge against operating income.
In the first quarter of 2003, the Company completed the activity
associated with the 2001 restructuring. The following tables display the
activity within the accrued restructuring liability for the three-month period
ended March 30, 2003:
Termination Benefits
NOTE 5 EARNINGS PER SHARE AND DIVIDENDS
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (or
loss) to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of Class
A and Class B Common Stock outstanding during the period. Shares issued or
reacquired during the period have been weighted for the portion of the period
that they were outstanding. Basic earnings (loss) per share has been computed
based upon 50,275,000 shares and 50,158,000 shares outstanding for the
three-month periods ended June 29, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively, and
based upon 50,274,000 shares and 50,098,000 shares outstanding for the
six-month periods ended June 29, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively. Diluted
earnings (loss) per share is calculated in a manner consistent with that of
basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common
shares that were outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per
share has been computed based upon 50,275,000 shares and 51,404,000 shares
outstanding for the three-month periods ended June 29, 2003 and June 30, 2002,
respectively, and based upon 50,274,000 shares and 50,098,000 shares
outstanding for the six-month periods ended June 29, 2003 and June 30, 2002,
respectively. During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 29,
2003, there were vested, unexercised, in the money stock options for 623,750
shares and 601,250 shares, respectively. During the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 2002, there were vested, unexercised, in the money stock
options for 3,462,400 shares and 2,642,000 shares, respectively. These shares
were not included in the computation of the diluted per share amount because
the Company was in a net loss position and, thus, any potential common shares
were anti-dilutive.
The following is a reconciliation from basic earnings (loss) per share to
diluted earnings (loss) per share for each of the periods presented:

NOTE 6 SEGMENT INFORMATION
Based on the quantitative thresholds specified in SFAS No. 131, the
Company has determined that it has two reportable segments: Floorcovering
Products/Services and Interior Fabrics. The Floorcovering Products/Services
segment manufactures, installs and services commercial modular and broadloom
carpet, and the Interior Fabrics segment manufactures panel and upholstery
fabrics.
The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those
described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies contained in the
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29,
2002, as filed with the Commission. Segment amounts disclosed are prior to any
elimination entries made in consolidation, except in the case of Net Sales,
where intercompany sales have been eliminated. The chief operating decision
maker evaluates performance of the segments based on operating income. Costs
excluded from this profit measure primarily consist of allocated corporate
expenses, interest/other expense and income taxes. Corporate expenses are
primarily comprised of corporate overhead expenses. Assets not identifiable to
any individual segment are corporate assets, which are primarily comprised of
cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, intangible assets and
intercompany amounts, which are eliminated in consolidation.

A reconciliation of the Companys total segment operating income,
depreciation and amortization and assets to the corresponding consolidated
amounts follows:
NOTE 7 LONG-TERM DEBT
On January 17, 2002, the Company amended and restated its revolving credit
facility. The amendment and restatement, among other things, substituted
certain lenders, changed certain covenants, and reduced the maximum borrowing
amount to $100 million. In connection with the amendment and restatement of the
facility, the Company issued the 10.375% Senior Notes discussed below.
On January 17, 2002, the Company also completed a private offering of $175
million in 10.375% Senior Notes due 2010. Interest is payable semi-annually on
February 1 and August 1 (interest payments began August 1, 2002). Proceeds from
the issuance of these Notes were used to pay down the revolving credit
facility. The Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured
senior basis by certain of the Companys domestic subsidiaries. At any time
prior to February 1, 2005, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes with the proceeds of one or more equity offerings
at a redemption price in cash equal to 110 3/8% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued interest at the redemption date. On June 17, 2002, the
Company completed an exchange offer pursuant to which the Notes were exchanged
for substantially similar notes registered under the Securities Act.
In December 2002, we further amended our revolving credit facility. The
amendment, among other things: (1) eased the interest coverage ratio covenant;
(2) added a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant; (3) changed the borrowing
base formula; (4) enlarged the lenders letters of credit subcommitment from
$15 million to $20 million; and (5) increased pricing on borrowings in certain
circumstances.
-12-
On June 18, 2003, we again amended and restated our revolving credit
facility. Under the amended and restated facility, as under its predecessor,
the maximum aggregate amount of loans and letters of credit available to us at
any one time is $100 million. However, the amended and restated facility
differs from its predecessor in several material respects, including the
following:
NOTE 8 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
We use the intrinsic value method of accounting for employee stock options
in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees, as allowed under the provisions of SFAS 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Compensation expense related to
stock option plans was not material for the three-month or six-month periods
ended June 29, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively.
The following table includes disclosures required by SFAS 123, as amended
by SFAS 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and
Disclosure, and illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as
if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123:
-13-
The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model.
NOTE 9 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In the fourth quarter of 2002, management approved and committed to a plan
to sell or otherwise create a joint venture or strategic alliance for its
raised/access flooring business. Management anticipates that this transaction
will take place during 2003. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $12.0
million, net of tax, during the fourth quarter of 2002 to adjust the carrying
value of the assets of this business to their estimated fair values.
Additional information regarding the raised/access flooring business is as
follows:
NOTE 10 SUPPLEMENTAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING GUARANTOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 11 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) No. 46,
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51.
FIN 46 requires a company to consolidate a variable interest entity, as
defined, when the company will absorb a majority of the variable interest
entitys expected losses, receive a majority of the variable interest entitys
expected residual returns, or both. FIN 46 also requires certain disclosures
relating to consolidated variable interest entities and unconsolidated variable
interest entities in which a company has a significant variable interest. The
issuance of FIN 46 had no effect on our consolidated financial statements.
-17-
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.
This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It
requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its
scope as a liability. Many of those instruments were previously classified as
equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or
modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the
first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company adopted this
new pronouncement effective the third quarter beginning June 30, 2003. The
adoption of SFAS 150 did not have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains statements which may constitute forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended by the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Those statements include statements regarding
the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and members of its
management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based.
Any forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and
involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements.
Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results
to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include risks and
uncertainties associated with economic conditions in the commercial interiors
industry as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed under the heading
Safe Harbor Compliance Statement for Forward-Looking Statements included in
Item 1 of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 29, 2002, which discussion is hereby incorporated by reference,
including but not limited to the discussion of specific risks and uncertainties
under the headings We compete with a large number of manufacturers in the
highly competitive commercial floorcovering products market, and some of these
competitors have greater financial resources than we do, Sales of our
principal products may be affected by cycles in the construction and renovation
of commercial and institutional buildings, Our continued success depends
significantly upon the efforts, abilities and continued service of our senior
management executives and our design consultants, Our substantial
international operations are subject to various political, economic and other
uncertainties, Our Chairman, together with other insiders, currently has
sufficient voting power to elect a majority of our Board of Directors, Large
increases in the cost of petroleum-based raw materials, which we are unable to
pass through to our customers, could adversely affect us, Unanticipated
termination or interruption of any of our arrangements with our primary
third-party suppliers of synthetic fiber could have a material adverse effect
on us, and Our Rights Agreement could discourage tender offers or other
transactions that could result in shareholders receiving a premium over the
market price for our stock. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or
revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the
occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over
time.
General
Our
revenues are derived from sales of commercial and residential floorcovering products
(primarily modular and broadloom carpet) and related services, interior fabrics
and other specialty products. During the six-month period ended June 29, 2003,
we had net sales of $444.2 million and a net loss (after giving effect to
restructuring charges) of $15.8 million, or $0.31 per share, compared with net
sales of $460.4 million and a net loss of $54.7 million or $1.09 per share,
after giving effect to a $55.4 million after-tax write-down associated with the
implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142,
in the comparable period last year. All amounts (except for net loss) in the
preceding sentence exclude our raised/access flooring business, which we are
reporting as discontinued operations as discussed below.
During the first six months of 2003, we recorded pre-tax restructuring
charges of $4.6 million in connection with our previously-announced
restructuring initiative designed to rationalize manufacturing operations in
our fabrics division and further reduce worldwide workforce. This charge was
comprised entirely of cash expenditures for severance benefits and other
rationalization costs.
Discontinued Operations of Our Raised/Access Flooring Business
In the fourth quarter of 2002, we decided to discontinue our operation of
our raised/access flooring business, either by an outright sale of that
business to a third party or through creation of a joint venture or other
strategic alliance with a third party to conduct that business. As required by
SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,
we have therefore reported the results of operations for the raised/access
flooring business, for all periods reflected herein, as discontinued
operations. As a result, our discussion of revenues or sales and other
results of operations (except for net income or loss amounts), including
percentages derived from or based on such amounts, excludes the results of our
raised/access flooring business unless we indicate otherwise.
-18-
In the six-month period ended June 29, 2003, the raised/access flooring
business generated revenues of $10.1 million, compared with $14.6 million in
the comparable period last year. Loss from operations of the raised/access
flooring business, net of tax, in the first six months of 2003 was $2.8
million, versus loss from operations of $0.7 million in the comparable period
last year.
Goodwill
We adopted the new standards set forth in SFAS 142 for accounting for
goodwill and other intangible assets effective on the first day of fiscal 2002,
and in the second quarter of 2002, we completed the transitional goodwill
impairment test required by SFAS 142. As a result of that testing, we
determined that a portion of our goodwill and other intangible assets had been
impaired, and we wrote down their value accordingly. The effect of that
write-down (an after-tax charge of $55.4 million, or $1.11 per diluted share in
the quarter ended March 31, 2002) has been recorded as the cumulative effect of
a change in accounting principle effective the first quarter of fiscal 2002, as
required by SFAS 142. The charge had no cash effect and, as required, is
presented net of tax. However, it affects significantly the comparisons of our
results from period to period, both directly because of the charge itself in
the first quarter of 2002, and indirectly because of the subsequent elimination
of amortization of those assets.
Results of Operations
For the three-month period ended June 29, 2003, the Companys net sales
increased slightly by $0.2 million (0.0%) compared to the same period in 2002.
This increase is due primarily to stabilizing economic conditions and continued
progress on our market segmentation strategy, whereby we are enhancing our
efforts to penetrate relatively untapped segments. For the six-month period
ended June 29, 2003, the Companys net sales decreased $16.3 million (3.5%)
compared to the same period in 2002. This decrease is primarily attributable
to (i) reduced corporate profits in general, which has led to decreased
spending in commercial interior markets, and (ii) the decline of panel fabrics
sales to certain OEM furniture manufactures as a result of reduced demand in
the interiors market.
Cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 72.3% for the
three-month period ended June 29, 2003, compared with 70.3% in the comparable
period in 2002. For the six-month period ending June 29, 2003, cost of sales,
as a percentage of net sales, increased to 72.9%, versus 70.7% in the
comparable period in 2002. The percentage increases are primarily due to (i)
the under-absorption of fixed manufacturing cost due to lower sales volume,
(ii) a fluctuation in our relative sales mix from products which have had
traditionally higher margins to those with traditionally lower margins, (iii)
other manufacturing cost associated with scaling production to meet current
demand levels, and (iv) unanticipated disruptions associated with the
integration and restructuring of our fabrics division.
Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net
sales, increased to 25.1% and 26.1% for the three-month and six-month periods
ending June 29, 2003, respectively, versus 24.1% and 24.2% in the comparable
periods in 2002. The percentage increases are primarily due to (i) increased
marketing costs incurred in connection with our launches of InterfaceFLOR (our
residential modular carpet business), the Prince Street House and Home
Collection (our residential broadloom offering), and our i2 marketing campaign
during the first six months of this year, (ii) unanticipated disruptions
associated with the integration and restructuring of our fabrics division, and
(iii) currency fluctuations that negatively affected the value of the dollar.
For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 29, 2003, interest
expense decreased $0.6 million and $0.8 million respectively, compared with the
same periods in 2002. The decreases are due primarily to (i) our repurchase of
$5 million of our Senior Subordinated Notes in 2002, (ii) a lower average
balance on our revolving credit facility during the first six months of 2003,
as compared to the same period in 2002, and (iii) year over year
decreases in average LIBOR rates, upon which certain of our
borrowings were based.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In our business, we require cash and other liquid assets primarily for
purchases of raw materials and to pay other manufacturing costs, in addition to
funding for normal course selling, general and administrative expenses,
anticipated capital expenditures, and possible special projects. We generate
our cash and other liquidity requirements primarily from our
operations and borrowings or letters of credit under our revolving credit facility with a banking
syndicate. Prior to June 18, 2003, we also generated liquidity through our
accounts receivable securitization program (which was terminated on that date
in connection with an amendment and restatement of our revolving credit
facility). Our management believes that our liquidity position will provide
sufficient funds to meet our current commitments and other cash requirements
for the foreseeable future, and that we will be able to continue our initiative
to enhance the generation of free cash flow.
At June 29, 2003, we had $24.2 million in cash, and had $43.3 million of
available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility, subject to
continued compliance with its covenants.
The Companys primary source of cash during the six months ended June 29,
2003 was a $6.9 million reduction in trade payables and accrued
expenses. The primary uses of cash
during the six-month period ended June 29, 2003 were (i) $8.4 million for
additions to property and
-19-
equipment in the Companys manufacturing facilities, (ii) $13.5 million
related to an increase in inventory levels, and (iii) a $6.9 million net
increase in accounts receivable associated with increasing sales volumes.
Management believes that cash provided by operations and long-term loan
commitments will provide adequate funds for current commitments and other
requirements in the foreseeable future; however, certain factors could affect
the Companys free cash flow, including, but not limited to, the following
factors discussed under the heading Safe Harbor Compliance Statement for
Forward-Looking Statements in Item 1 of the Companys Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2002: Sales of our principal
products may be affected by cycles in the construction and renovation of
commercial and institutional buildings, Our substantial international
operations are subject to various political, economic and other uncertainties,
Large increases in the cost of petroleum-based raw materials, which we are
unable to pass through to our customers, could adversely affect us, and
Unanticipated termination or interruption of any of our arrangements with our
primary third-party suppliers of synthetic fiber could have a material adverse
effect on us.
On June 18, 2003, we amended and restated our primary revolving credit
facility. Under the amended and restated facility, as under its predecessor,
the maximum aggregate amount of loans and letters of credit available to us at
any one time is $100 million. However, the amended and restated facility
differs from its predecessor in several material respects, including the
following:
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We previously had in place an accounts receivable securitization program
that provided funding from the sale of trade accounts receivable generated by
certain of our operating subsidiaries. (The accounts receivable securitization
program was described in more detail in Item 5 of our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2002.) The amendment and
restatement of our revolving credit facility replaced and superseded our
accounts receivable securitization program. Consequently, at the closing of
the amendment and restatement, the balance outstanding under the securitization
facility, which was $26.0 million, was paid off with borrowings under the
revolving credit facility, and therefore that debt is now reflected on our
balance sheet.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements. We
prepare these financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United
-20-
States. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the periods presented. We base our estimates on historical
experience, available information and various other assumptions we believe to
be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events
occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained
and as our operating environment changes. There have been no material changes
or developments in our evaluation of the accounting estimates and the
underlying assumptions or methodologies that we believe to be Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2002.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a result of the scope and volume of its global operations, the Company
is exposed to an element of market risk from changes in interest rates and
foreign currency exchange rates. The Companys results of operations and
financial condition could be impacted by this risk. The Company manages its
exposure to market risk through its regular operating and financial activities
and, to the extent appropriate, through the use of derivative financial
instruments.
The Company employs derivative financial instruments as risk management
tools and not for speculative or trading purposes. The Company monitors the use
of derivative financial instruments through the use of objective measurable
systems, well-defined market and credit risk limits, and timely reports to
senior management according to prescribed guidelines. The Company has
established strict counterparty credit guidelines and only enters into
transactions with financial institutions with a rating of investment grade or
better. As a result, the Company considers the risk of counterparty default to
be minimal.
Interest Rate Market Risk Exposure.
Changes in interest rates affect the
interest paid on certain of the Companys debt. To mitigate the impact of
fluctuations in interest rates, management of the Company has developed and
implemented a policy to maintain the percentage of fixed and variable rate debt
within certain parameters. The Company maintains the fixed/variable rate mix
within these parameters either by borrowing on a fixed-rate basis or entering
into interest rate swap transactions. In the interest rate swaps, the Company
agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and
variable interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional
principal linked to LIBOR.
At June 29, 2003, the Company had no interest rate swap agreements in
place. The Company does not plan to utilize swap agreements or other derivative
financial instruments to convert variable rate to fixed rate debt, or vice
versa, during the rest of fiscal 2003.
Foreign Currency Exchange Market Risk Exposure.
A significant portion of
the Companys operations consists of manufacturing and sales activities in
foreign jurisdictions. The Company manufactures its products in the U.S.,
Canada, England, Northern Ireland, the Netherlands, Australia and Thailand, and
sells its products in more than 100 countries. As a result, the Companys
financial results could be significantly affected by factors such as changes in
foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign
markets in which the Company distributes its products. The Companys operating
results are exposed to changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and
many other currencies, including the Euro, British pound sterling, Canadian
dollar, Australian dollar, Thai baht, and Japanese yen. When the U.S. dollar
strengthens against a foreign currency, the value of anticipated sales in those
currencies decreases, and vice-versa. Additionally, to the extent the Companys
foreign operations with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar
transact business in countries other than the U.S., exchange rate changes
between two foreign currencies could ultimately impact the Company. Finally,
because the Company reports in U.S. dollars on a consolidated basis, foreign
currency exchange fluctuations can have a translation impact on the Companys
financial position.
To mitigate the short-term effect of changes in currency exchange rates on
the Companys sales denominated in foreign currencies, the Company regularly
hedges by entering into currency swap contracts to hedge certain firm sales
commitments denominated in foreign currencies. In these currency swap
agreements, the Company and a counterparty financial institution exchange equal
initial principal amounts of two currencies at the spot exchange rate. Over the
term of the swap contract, the Company and the counterparty exchange interest
payments in their swapped currencies. At maturity, the principal amount is
re-swapped, at the contractual exchange rate.
The Company, as of June 29, 2003, recognized a $16.4 million increase in
its foreign currency translation adjustment account compared to December 29,
2002, primarily because of the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro.
Sensitivity Analysis.
For purposes of specific risk analysis, the Company
uses sensitivity analysis to measure the impact that market risk may have on
the fair values of the Companys market sensitive instruments.
To perform sensitivity analysis, the Company assesses the risk of loss in
fair values associated with the impact of hypothetical changes in interest
rates and foreign currency exchange rates on market sensitive instruments. The
market value of instruments affected by interest rate and foreign currency
exchange rate risk is computed based on the present value of future cash flows
as impacted by the changes in the rates attributable to the market risk being
measured. The discount rates used for the present value
-21-
computations were selected based on market interest and foreign currency
exchange rates in effect at June 29, 2003. The market values that result from
these computations are compared with the market values of these financial
instruments at June 29, 2003. The differences in this comparison are the
hypothetical gains or losses associated with each type of risk.
As of June 29, 2003, based on a hypothetical immediate 150 basis point
increase in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, the market
value of the Companys fixed rate long-term debt would be impacted by a net
decrease of approximately $19.0 million. Conversely, a 150 basis point
decrease in interest rates would result in a net increase in the market value
of the Companys fixed rate long-term debt of approximately
$23.5 million.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of
our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design

13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act). Based on that
evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as of the date of that evaluation.

The amended and restated
facility (the Facility) matures on May 15, 2005, but may be
extended to October 1, 2007, upon the following conditions. If, on May
15, 2005, and at all times thereafter until the Companys 9.5% Senior
Subordinated Notes are paid in full, (i) the sum of our excess
availability for domestic loans under the Facility plus unrestricted
cash balances (each as defined in the facility) is greater than or equal
to (ii) the sum of $45 million plus the outstanding principal balance of
the 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes, then the maturity date will be
extended to November 15, 2005. If the maturity date is extended to
November 15, 2005, as described in the preceding sentence, and if the
9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes are paid in full on or before November
15, 2005, then the maturity date will automatically be extended to
October 1, 2007.
The Facility includes a
domestic U.S. Dollar syndicated loan and letter of credit facility
(the Domestic Loan Facility) made available to the Company and Interface
Europe B.V. (a foreign subsidiary of the Company based in Europe), as
co-borrowers up to the lesser of (i) $100 million, or (ii) a borrowing base equal to the sum of specified percentages of
eligible accounts receivable, finished goods inventory and raw materials
inventory in the U.S. (the percentages and eligibility requirements for
the domestic borrowing base are specified in the credit facility)
less certain reserves. Any
advances to the Company or Interface Europe B.V. under the Domestic
Loan Facility reduce borrowing availability under the entire Facility.
Advances to the Company and
Interface Europe B.V. under the Domestic Loan Facility and advances
to Interface Europe, Ltd. under the Multicurrency Loan Facility
(described below) are secured by a first priority lien on
substantially all of the assets of the Company and each of its
material domestic subsidiaries, which subsidiaries also guarantee the
Facility.
The Facility also includes a
multicurrency syndicated loan and letter of credit facility (the
Multicurrency Loan Facility) in British Pounds and Euros
made available to Interface Europe, Ltd.,
(a foreign subsidiary of the Company based in the UK) in an amount up to
the lesser of (i) the U.S. Dollar equivalent of $15 million, or (ii) a borrowing
base equal to the sum of specified percentages of eligible accounts
receivable and finished goods inventory of Interface Europe, Ltd. and
certain of its subsidiaries (the percentages and
eligibility requirements for the UK borrowing base are specified in the
credit facility) less certain reserves. Any advances under the
Multicurrency Loan Facility reduce borrowing availability under the
Domestic Loan Facility.
Advances to Interface Europe, Ltd. under the facility are secured by
a first-priority lien on, security interest in, or floating or fixed
charge, as applicable, on all of the interest in and to the accounts
receivable, inventory, and substantially all other property of Interface
Europe, Ltd. and its material subsidiaries, which subsidiaries also
guarantee the Multicurrency Loan Facility.
The Facility contains certain financial
covenants (including a senior secured debt coverage ratio test and a
fixed charge coverage ratio test) that become effective in that event
that (i) our excess availability for domestic loans falls below $20
million (excluding a specified reserve against the domestic borrowing
base), or (ii) our excess availability for UK loans falls below $3
million. In such event, we must comply with the financial covenants for
a period commencing on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately
preceding such event (unless such event occurs on the last day of a
fiscal quarter, in which case the compliance period commences on such
date) and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately
following the fiscal quarter in which such event occurred.

The amended and restated
facility (the Facility) matures on May 15, 2005, but may be
extended to October 1, 2007, upon the following conditions. If, on May
15, 2005, and at all times thereafter until the Companys 9.5% Senior
Subordinated Notes are paid in full, (i) the sum of our excess
availability for domestic loans under the Facility plus unrestricted
cash balances (each as defined in the facility) is greater than or equal
to (ii) the sum of $45 million plus the outstanding principal balance of
the 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes, then the maturity date will be
extended to November 15, 2005. If the maturity date is extended to
November 15, 2005, as described in the preceding sentence, and if the
9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes are paid in full on or before November
15, 2005, then the maturity date will automatically be extended to
October 1, 2007.
The Facility includes a
domestic U.S. Dollar syndicated loan and letter of credit facility
(the Domestic Loan Facility) made available to the Company and Interface
Europe B.V. (a foreign subsidiary of the Company based in Europe), as
co-borrowers up to the lesser of (i) $100 million, or (ii) a borrowing base equal to the sum of specified percentages of
eligible accounts receivable, finished goods inventory and raw materials
inventory in the U.S. (the percentages and eligibility requirements for
the domestic borrowing base are specified in the credit facility)
less certain reserves. Any
advances to the Company or Interface Europe B.V. under the Domestic
Loan Facility reduce borrowing availability under the entire Facility.
Advances to the Company and
Interface Europe B.V. under the Domestic Loan Facility and advances
to Interface Europe, Ltd. under the Multicurrency Loan Facility
(described below) are secured by a first priority lien on
substantially all of the assets of the Company and each of its
material domestic subsidiaries, which subsidiaries also guarantee the
Facility.
The Facility also includes a
multicurrency syndicated loan and letter of credit facility (the
Multicurrency Loan Facility) in British Pounds and Euros
made available to Interface Europe, Ltd.,
(a foreign subsidiary of the Company based in the UK) in an amount up to
the lesser of (i) the U.S. Dollar equivalent of $15 million, or (ii) a borrowing
base equal to the sum of specified percentages of eligible accounts
receivable and finished goods inventory of Interface Europe, Ltd. and
certain of its subsidiaries (the percentages and
eligibility requirements for the UK borrowing base are specified in the
credit facility) less certain reserves. Any advances under the
Multicurrency Loan Facility reduce borrowing availability under the
Domestic Loan Facility.
Advances to Interface Europe, Ltd. under the facility are secured by
a first-priority lien on, security interest in, or floating or fixed
charge, as applicable, on all of the interest in and to the accounts
receivable, inventory, and substantially all other property of Interface
Europe, Ltd. and its material subsidiaries, which subsidiaries also
guarantee the Multicurrency Loan Facility.
The Facility contains certain financial
covenants (including a senior secured debt coverage ratio test and a
fixed charge coverage ratio test) that become effective in that event
that (i) our excess availability for domestic loans falls below $20
million (excluding a specified reserve against the domestic borrowing
base), or (ii) our excess availability for UK loans falls below $3
million. In such event, we must comply with the financial covenants for
a period commencing on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately
preceding such event (unless such event occurs on the last day of a
fiscal quarter, in which case the compliance period commences on such
date) and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately
following the fiscal quarter in which such event occurred.

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances a subsidiary which becomes a guarantor of any Indebtedness shall, and other Subsidiaries may, execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company's Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the "GUARANTEE"); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:
Section 1. Capitalized Terms.
Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
Section 2. Agreement to Guarantee.
Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary signatory hereto hereby agrees as follows:
(a) Along with all other Guarantors, to jointly and severally Guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately.
(b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.
(c) The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever.
(d) This Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and the Indenture.
(e) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors, or any custodian, Trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.
(f) None of the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries signatory hereto shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.
(g) As between the Guarantors, including each Guarantor Subsidiary signatory hereto, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Guaranteeing Subsidiary for the purpose of this Guarantee.
(h) Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor (including any other Guaranteeing Subsidiary) so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee.
(i) Pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, after giving effect to any maximum amount and any other contingent and fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections from the Company and any of the other Guarantors, the rights of each Guaranteeing Subsidiary signatory hereto to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor (including any other Guaranteeing Subsidiary) in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 10 of the Indenture shall result in the obligations of each Guaranteeing Subsidiary under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.
3. Execution and Delivery.
Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee.
4. Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms.
(a) No Guarantor may merge or consolidate with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets, as an entirety, to any Person or Persons, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless:
(i) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and
(ii) either:
(A) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture, its Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee, or
(B) the Guarantor is released pursuant to Section 11.07 and such sale or other disposition complies with Section 4.12 of the Indenture, including the application of the Excess Proceeds therefrom.
(b) In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the successor corporation, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor corporation thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Indenture as the Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.
(c) Except as set forth in Article 4 and Article 5 of the Indenture, and notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor.
5. Release of a Guarantor.
(a) Upon the sale or disposition of all of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, or upon the consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into any Person (in each case, other than to, with or into, as the case may be, the Company or an Affiliate of the Company), such Guarantor shall be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all obligations under Article 11 of the Indenture without any further action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder; provided, however, that each such Guarantor is sold or disposed of in a transaction which does not violate Section 4.12 and Section 11.06 of the Indenture;
(b) The Trustee shall deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing the release of a Guarantor upon receipt of a request of the Company accompanied by an Officers' Certificate certifying as to the compliance with Section 11.06 of the Indenture. Any Guarantor not so released or the entity surviving such Guarantor, as applicable, will remain or be liable under its Guarantee as provided in Article 11 of the Indenture.
The Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably requested by the Company or a Guarantor in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee endorsed on the Securities and under Article 11 of the Indenture.
6. No Recourse Against Others.
No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any Guarantees, the Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy.
7. Governing Law.
NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.
8. Counterparts.
The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement.
9. Effect of Headings.
The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by each Guarantor signatory thereto and the Company.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Second Supplemental Indenture to be duly executed, and their respective corporate seals to be hereunto affixed and attested, all as of the day and year first above written.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE
INTERFACE, INC. NONQUALIFIED SAVINGS PLAN
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT to the Interface, Inc. Nonqualified Savings Plan (the "Plan") is made on this 20th day of December, 2002, by the Administrative Committee.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Interface, Inc. maintains the Plan for the benefit of certain of its key management and highly compensated employees; and
WHEREAS, Section 8.1 of the Plan provides that the Administrative Committee has the right to amend the Plan at any time; and
WHEREAS, the Administrative Committee desires to amend the Plan to provide different deferral limits for base pay (including commissions) and bonuses;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended, as follows:
1. Effective January 1, 2003, a new Section 1.2A is added to the Plan to read as follows:
1.2A BASE PAY shall mean Compensation minus Bonuses and Commissions.
2. Effective January 1, 2003, a new Section 1.4A is added to the Plan to read as follows:
1.4A BONUSES shall mean such portion of a Participant's Compensation designated as Bonuses by the Administrative Committee.
3. Effective January 1, 2003, a new Section 1.7A is added to the Plan to read as follows:
1.7 A COMMISSIONS shall mean such portion of a Participant's Compensation designated as commissions by the Administrative Committee.
4. Effective January 1, 2003, Section 1.12 of the Plan is hereby deleted in its entirety and a new Section 1.12 is added to read as follows:
1.12 DEFERRAL ELECTION shall mean a written election form (or election in any other format permitted by the Administrative Committee) on which a Participant may elect to defer under the Plan a portion of his Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses.
5. Effective January 1, 2003, Section 3.2 of the Plan is deleted in its entirety and a new Section 3.2 is added to read as follows:
3.2 DEFERRAL CONTRIBUTIONS.
Each Eligible Employee who is or becomes eligible to participate in the Plan for all or any portion of a Plan Year may elect to have Deferral Contributions made on his behalf for such Plan Year by completing and delivering to the Administrative Committee (or its designee) Deferral Elections setting forth the terms of his election. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, Deferral Elections may provide for the reduction of an Eligible Employee's (i) Base Pay and Commissions payable each payroll period and/or (ii) Bonuses payable during the Plan Year for which the Deferral Elections are in effect. Subject to any modifications, additions or exceptions that the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary, appropriate or helpful, the following terms shall apply to such elections:
(a) EFFECTIVE DATE.
(i) INITIAL DEFERRAL ELECTIONS. A Participant's initial Deferral Elections with respect to his Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses for any Plan Year shall be effective for the first payroll period beginning on or after the date the Deferral Elections become effective. To be effective, a Participant's initial Deferral Elections must be made within the time period prescribed by the Administrative Committee (generally, before the first day of the Plan Year for which Deferral Contributions will be made, or, if later, before the date on which his participation becomes effective pursuant to Plan Section 2.1(b)). If an Eligible Employee fails to submit Deferral Elections in a timely manner, he shall be deemed to have elected not to participate in the Plan for that Plan Year.
(ii) SUBSEQUENT DEFERRAL ELECTIONS. A Participant's subsequent Deferral Elections with respect to his Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses for any Plan Year must be made on or before the last day of the Plan Year immediately preceding the Plan Year for which he desires to participate and in which the Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses to be deferred are paid.
(b) TERM. Each Participant's Deferral Elections shall remain in effect for all such Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses payable during a Plan Year and subsequent Plan Years until the earliest of (i) the date the Participant ceases to be an active Participant for such Plan Year, (ii) the date the Participant makes subsequent Deferral Elections applicable for a subsequent Plan Year, or (iii) the date the Participant revokes such Deferral Elections. If a Participant does not make Subsequent Deferral Elections for the 2003 Plan Year, his Deferral Elections with respect to his Compensation for the 2002 Plan Year
will apply to his Deferral Elections for the 2003 Plan Year with respect to his Base Pay, Commissions and Bonuses. If a Participant is transferred from the employment of one Participating Company to the employment of another Participating Company, his Deferral Elections with the first Participating Company will remain in effect and will apply to his Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses from the second Participating Company until the earliest of those events set forth in the preceding sentence.
(c) AMOUNT. A Participant may elect to defer (1) his Base Pay and Commissions payable each payroll period in 1 percent increments, up to a maximum of 20%, and (2) his Bonuses payable in 1 percent increments, up to a maximum of 40%. The deferral percentage(s) elected by the Participant will be applied after subtracting the maximum percentage of before-tax contributions permitted under the Savings and Investment Plan (or such other maximum percentage and/or amount, if any, established by the Administrative Committee from time-to-time). Because Code Section 401(a)(17) limits the amount of compensation that may be taken into account in determining the amount of a participant's before-tax contributions to the Savings and Investment Plan, the percentage of Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses that a Participant elects to defer under the Plan for a Plan Year will not be reduced by the maximum percentage of before-tax contributions permitted under those plans once the Participant's compensation exceeds the Code Section 401(a)(17) limit for the Plan Year.
(d) REVOCATION. A Participant may revoke his Deferral Elections by delivering a written notice of revocation to the Administrative Committee, and such revocation shall be effective as soon as practicable after the date on which it is received by the Administrative Committee. (See also Section 2.3(a)). A Participant who revokes his Deferral Elections may enter into new Deferral Elections with respect to his Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses for any subsequent Plan Year by making such Deferral Elections on or before the last day of the Plan Year immediately preceding the Plan Year for which he desires to participate and in which the Base Pay and Commissions and/or Bonuses to be deferred are paid.
(e) CREDITING OF DEFERRED BASE PAY AND COMMISSIONS AND/OR BONUSES. For each Plan Year that a Participant has Deferral Elections in effect, the Administrative Committee shall credit the amount of such Participant's Deferral Contributions to his Account on, or as soon as practicable after, the Valuation Date on which such amount would have been paid to him but for his Deferral Elections.
6. Except as specified herein, the Plan shall remain in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused its duly authorized officer to execute this First Amendment on the date first written above.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended, as follows:
1. Effective December 30, 2002, Exhibit A of the Plan is amended by adding thereto the following:
Interface Fabrics Group Finishing Services, LLC December 30, 2002 Interface Fabrics Group South Services, LLC December 30, 2002
