(1) Our revolving credit facility is collateralized by our accounts receivable and our term loan is collateralized by our property, plant, and equipment. Effective July 1, 2019, monthly installment principal payment on the Term Loan was amended to approximately $35,500 from approximately $101,600.

(3) Uncollateralized note.

 

(4) Net of debt discount/debt issuance costs of ($198,000) and ($248,000) at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Promissory Note provides for prepayment of principal over the term of the Note without penalty. The Company made prepayments of principal of $312,000 in the first quarter of 2020 and $520,000 in 2019 which were reflected in the current portion of the debt.

 

(5) As discussed in Note 16 – “Subsequent Events – Credit Facility,” on May 8, 2020, the Company entered into a new loan agreement, replacing the Revised Loan Agreement dated October 31, 2011 as discussed below, with PNC. The new loan agreement has a maturity date of May 15, 2024. In accordance with ASC 470, “Debt,” this post balance-sheet date agreement demonstrated the Company’s ability to refinance its short-term obligations on a long-term basis; therefore, the Company has reclassified the current portion of the outstanding debt to long-term except for $427,000 in principal payments that will be due by March 31, 2021 (see Note 16 - “Subsequent Events – Credit Facility” for further details of this new loan agreement).

 

Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement

 

The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement, dated October 31, 2011 (“Amended Loan Agreement”), with PNC National Association (“PNC”), acting as agent and lender. The Amended Loan Agreement has been amended from time to time since the execution of the Amended Loan Agreement. The Amended Loan Agreement, as subsequently amended (“Revised Loan Agreement”), provides the Company with the following credit facility with a maturity date of March 24, 2021: (a) up to $12,000,000 revolving credit (“revolving credit”) and (b) a term loan (“term loan”) of approximately $6,100,000. 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.

 

Payment of annual rate of interest due on the revolving credit is at prime (3.25% at March 31, 2020) plus 2% and the term loan at prime plus 2.5%. Prior to March 29, 2019, the Company also had the option of paying annual rate of interest due on the revolving credit of London InterBank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3% and the term loan at LIBOR plus 3.5%.

 

At March 31, 2020, the borrowing availability under our revolving credit was approximately $8,537,000, based on our eligible receivables and includes a reduction an in borrowing availability of approximately $3,139,000 from outstanding standby letters of credit. This $8,537,000 in borrowing availability included the release of $250,000 in reduction in borrowing availability on March 31, 2020 that the Company’s lender had previously imposed.

 

The Company’s credit facility under its Revised Loan Agreement 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 met its fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) requirement in the first quarter of 2020. Additionally, the Company met its remaining financial covenant requirements in the first quarter of 2020.

 

Loan and Securities Purchase Agreement, Promissory Note and Subordination Agreement

 

On April 1, 2019, the Company completed a lending transaction with Robert Ferguson (the “Lender”), whereby the Company borrowed from the Lender the sum of $2,500,000 pursuant to the terms of a Loan and Security Purchase Agreement and promissory note (the “Loan”). The Lender is a shareholder of the Company. The Lender also currently serves as a consultant to the Company in connection with the Company’s TBI at its PFNWR subsidiary. The proceeds from the Loan were used for general working capital purposes. The Loan is unsecured, with a term of two years with interest payable at a fixed interest rate of 4.00% per annum. The Loan provides for monthly payments of accrued interest only during the first year of the Loan, with the first interest payment due May 1, 2019 and monthly payments of approximately $208,333 in principal plus accrued interest starting in the second year of the Loan. The Loan also allows for prepayment of principal payments over the term of the Loan without penalty with such prepayment of principal payments to be applied to the second year of the loan payments at the Company’s discretion. Since inception of the loan, the Company has made total prepayments in principal of $832,000, of which $312,000 was made in the first three months of 2020. In connection with the above Loan, the Lender agreed under the terms of the Loan and a Subordination Agreement with our credit facility lender, to subordinate payment under the Loan, and agreed that the Loan will be junior in right of payment to the credit facility in the event of default or bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding by us. In connection with this capital raise transaction described above and consideration for us receiving the Loan, the Company issued a Warrant (the “Warrant”) to the Lender to purchase up to 60,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.51 per share, which was the closing bid price for a share of our Common Stock on NASDAQ.com immediately preceding the execution of the Loan and Warrant. The Warrant is exercisable six months from April 1, 2019 and expires on April 1, 2024 and remains outstanding at March 31, 2020. The fair value of the Warrant was estimated to be approximately $93,000 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. As further consideration for this capital raise transaction relating to the Loan, the Company issued 75,000 shares of its Common Stock to the Lender. The Company determined the fair value of the 75,000 shares of Common Stock to be approximately $263,000 which was based on the closing bid price for a share of the Company’s Common Stock on NASDAQ.com immediately preceding the execution of the Loan, pursuant to the Loan and Securities Purchase Agreement. The fair value of the Warrant and Common Stock and the related closing fees incurred totaling approximately $398,000 from the transaction was recorded as debt discount/debt issuance costs, which is being amortized over the term of the loan as interest expense – financing fees. The 75,000 shares of Common Stock, the Warrant and the 60,000 shares of Common Stock that may be purchased under the Warrant were and will be issued in a private placement that was and will be exempt from registration under Rule 506 and/or Sections 4(a)(2) and 4(a)(5) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and bear a restrictive legend against resale except in a transaction registered under the Act or in a transaction exempt from registration thereunder.

 

Upon default, the Lender will have the right to elect to receive in full and complete satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under the Loan either: (a) the cash amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal balance owing under the loan and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Payoff Amount”) or (b) upon meeting certain conditions, the number of whole shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Payoff Shares”) determined by dividing the Payoff Amount by the dollar amount equal to the closing bid price of our Common Stock on the date immediately prior to the date of default, as reported or quoted on the primary nationally recognized exchange or automated quotation system on which our Common Stock is listed; provided however, that the dollar amount of such closing bid price shall not be less than $3.51, the closing bid price for our Common Stock as disclosed on NASDAQ.com immediately preceding the signing of this loan agreement.

 

If issued, the Payoff Shares will not be registered and the Lender will not be entitled to registration rights with respect to the Payoff Shares. The aggregate number of shares, warrant shares, and Payoff Shares that are or will be issued to the Lender pursuant to the Loan, together with the aggregate shares of the Company’s Common Stock and other voting securities of the Company owned by the Lender or which may be acquired by the Lender as of the date of issuance of the Payoff Shares, shall not exceed the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock equal to 14.9% of the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the date immediately prior to the default, less the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock owned by the Lender immediately prior to the date of such default plus the number of shares of our Common Stock that may be acquired by the Lender under warrants and/or options outstanding immediately prior to the date of such default.
