Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement

 

The Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement, dated May 8, 2020 (“Loan Agreement”), with PNC National Association (“PNC”), acting as agent and lender. The Loan Agreement provides the Company with the following credit facility with a maturity date of March 15, 2024: (a) up to $18,000,000 revolving credit (“revolving credit”) and (b) a term loan (“term loan”) of approximately $1,742,000, requiring monthly installments of $35,547. The maximum that the Company can borrow under the revolving credit is based on a percentage of eligible receivables (as defined) at any one time reduced by outstanding standby letters of credit and borrowing reductions that our lender may impose from time to time. The Loan Agreement, as amended, also provides a capital expenditure line of up to $1,000,000 with advances on the line, subject to certain limitations, permitted for up to twelve months starting May 4, 2021 (the “Borrowing Period”). Only interest is payable on advances during the Borrowing Period. At the end of the Borrowing Period, the total amount advanced under the line will amortize equally based on a five-year amortization schedule with principal payment due monthly plus interest. At the maturity date of the Loan Agreement, as amended, any unpaid principal balance plus interest, if any, will become due. No advance on the capital line has been made as of March 31, 2022.

 

On March 29, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment to its Loan Agreement with its lender which provided, among other things, the following:

 

  waived the Company’s failure to meet the minimum quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) requirement for the fourth quarter of 2021;
  removes the quarterly FCCR testing requirement for the first quarter of 2022;
  reinstates the quarterly FCCR testing requirement starting for the second quarter of 2022 and revises the methodology to be used in calculating the FCCR for the quarters ending June 30, 2022, September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022 (with no change to the minimum 1.15:1 ratio requirement for each quarter);
  requires maintenance of a minimum of $3,000,000 in borrowing availability under the revolving credit until the minimum FCCR requirement for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 has been met and certified to the lender; and
  revises the annual rate used to calculate the Facility Fee (as defined in the Loan Agreement) on the revolving credit, with addition of the capital expenditure line, from 0.375% to 0.500%. Upon meeting the minimum FCCR requirement of 1.15:1 on a twelve months trailing basis, the Facility Fee rate of 0.375% will be reinstated.

 

In connection with the amendment, we paid PNC a fee of $15,000 which is being amortized over the remaining term of the Loan Agreement, as amended, as interest expense-financing fees.

 

Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, as amended, payment of annual rate of interest due on the revolving credit is at prime (3.50% at March 31, 2022) plus 2% or LIBOR plus 3.00% and the term loan and the capital expenditure line at prime plus 2.50% or LIBOR plus 3.50%. Under the LIBOR option of interest payment, a LIBOR floor of 0.75% applies in the event that LIBOR falls below 0.75% at any point in time.

 

The Company may terminate its Loan Agreement, as amended, upon 90 days’ prior written notice upon payment in full of our obligations under the Loan Agreement. The Company has agreed to pay PNC 0.5% of the total financing if it pays off its obligations after May 7, 2021 but prior to or on May 7, 2022. No early termination fee will apply if the Company pays off its obligations under the Loan Agreement after May 7, 2022.

 

At March 31, 2022, the borrowing availability under the Company’s revolving credit was approximately $4,544,000 based on our eligible receivables and includes a reduction in borrowing availability of approximately $3,020,000 from outstanding standby letters of credit.

 

The Company’s credit facility under its Loan Agreement, as amended, with PNC contains certain financial covenants, along with customary representations and warranties. A breach of any of these financial covenants, unless waived by PNC, could result in a default under our credit facility allowing our lender to immediately require the repayment of all outstanding debt under our credit facility and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. The Company was not required to perform testing of the FCCR requirement in the first quarter of 2022 pursuant to the March 29, 2022 amendment as discussed above, otherwise, it met all of its other financial covenant requirements.
