M&T Financing Agreement

On February 21, 2023, we amended our $369 million Senior Secured Credit Facility with M&T Bank.

The material provisions of the amendment were to (i) increase the capacity under the Floor Plan Line of Credit to up to $525.0 million from $327.0 million and increase the capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility to up to $50.0 million from $25.0 million; (ii) remove the mortgage loan facility (“Mortgage Loan Facility”) and M&T term loan facility (the “M&T Term Loan Facility”); (iii) extend the term of the M&T floor plan line of credit (the “Floor Plan Line of Credit”) and the revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) to February 21, 2027; (iv) lower interest rates on the Floor Plan Line of Credit and the Revolving Credit Facility; and (v) remove certain guarantors.

In the first quarter of 2023, at the time of the amendment, we paid off the $5.4 million outstanding on the Mortgage Loan Facility and the $6.7 million outstanding on the Term Loan Facility.

At September 30, 2023, there was $319.4 million outstanding on the Floor Plan Line of Credit at an interest rate of 7.48% and $45.0 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility at an interest rate of 7.84%. We were in compliance with all financial and restrictive covenants at September 30, 2023.

The Floor Plan Line of Credit bears interest at: (a) 30-day SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.90% to 2.05% based on the total net leverage ratio (as defined in the new M&T Facility) or (b) the Base Rate plus a margin of 0.90% to 1.05% based on the total net leverage ratio (as defined in the new M&T Facility). Base Rate means, for any day, the fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of: (a) the Prime Rate for such day, (b) the Federal Funds Rate in effect on such day plus 50 Basis Points, and (c) the one-month Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, determined on a daily basis, plus 100 Basis Points. The Floor Plan Line of Credit is also subject to an annual unused commitment fee at 0.15% of the average daily unused portion of the Floor Plan.

The M&T Revolving Credit facility bears interest at: (a) 30-day SOFR plus an applicable margin of 2.15% to 2.90% based on the total net leverage ratio (as defined in the new M&T Facility) or (b) the Base Rate plus a margin of 1.15% to 1.90% based on the total net leverage ratio (as defined in the new M&T Facility). Base Rate means, for any day, the fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of: (a) the Prime Rate for such day, (b) the Federal Funds Rate in effect on such day plus 50 Basis Points, and (c) the one-month Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, determined on a daily basis, plus 100 Basis Points. The Revolving Credit facility is also subject to a quarterly unused commitment fee at 0.15% of the average daily unused portion of the Credit facility.
