Credit Facility

On March 24, 2016, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement. The BankUnited Facility originally provided for a revolving credit loan commitment of $30 million (the “Revolving Loan”) and a $10 million term loan (“Term Loan”). The Revolving Loan bears interest at a rate based upon a pricing grid, as defined in the Credit Agreement.

On August 24, 2020, the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment and Waiver to the Credit Agreement (the “Sixth Amendment”). Under the Sixth Amendment, the parties amended the Credit Agreement by extending the maturity date of the Revolving Loan and Term Loan to May 2, 2022 and making conforming changes to the repayment schedule of the Term Loan. The availability under the Revolving Loan was reduced by $6 million, to $24 million, and the outstanding principal amount on the Term Note was increased to approximately $7,933,000.

On May 11, 2021, the Company entered into a Waiver and Seventh Amendment (“Seventh Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement. Under the Seventh Amendment, the parties amended the Credit Agreement by (a) extending the maturity date of the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan to July 31, 2022, and (b) amending the leverage ratio covenant for the fiscal quarters ending on and after March 31, 2021, to 4.0 to 1.0, determined at the end of each fiscal quarter for the trailing four-quarter period then ended (or, in the case of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021, determined on an annualized basis for the three-quarter period then ended). Additionally, under the Seventh Amendment, BankUnited waived late delivery of certain financial information. 

On October 28, 2021, the Company entered into a Waiver and Eighth Amendment (the “Eighth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement. Under the Eighth Amendment, the parties amended the Credit Agreement by (a) extending the maturity date of the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan to December 31, 2022, (b) reducing the availability under the Revolving Loan from $24 million to $21 million while eliminating the requirement to maintain a minimum $3.0 million in a combination of Revolving Loan availability and unrestricted cash, (c) providing for the repayment of an additional $750,000 of the principal balance of the Term Loan in three installments of $250,000 on November 30, 2021, December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022 in addition to $200,000 regular monthly principal payments through maturity, (d) amending the minimum debt service coverage ratio covenant for the fiscal quarters ending on and after June 30, 2021 to provide for a ratio of 1.5 to 1.0, and (e) amending the maximum leverage ratio covenant as follows: for the fiscal quarter ending on March 31, 2021 - 5.0 to 1.0; for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021 - 4.75 to 1.0; for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021 - 4.25 to 1.0 and for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2021 and thereafter - 4.0 to 1.0, determined at the end of each fiscal quarter for the trailing four-quarter period then ended (or, in the case of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021, determined on an annualized basis for the three-quarter period then ended). Additionally, under the Eighth Amendment, BankUnited waived certain covenant non-compliance and waived temporarily, late delivery of certain financial information.

The BankUnited Facility, as amended, requires us to maintain the following financial covenants: (a) minimum debt service coverage ratio of no less than 1.5 to 1.0 at December 31, 2020 and for the trailing four quarter period at the end of each quarter after June 30, 2021; (b) a minimum net income, after taxes, of no less than $1.00; (c) a maximum leverage ratio as follows: for the fiscal quarter ended on March 31, 2021 - 5.0 to 1.0; for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021 - 4.75 to 1.0; for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021 - 4.25 to 1.0 and for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2021 and thereafter - 4.0 to 1.0, determined at the end of each fiscal quarter for the trailing four-quarter period then ended (or, in the case of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021, determined on an annualized basis for the three-quarter period then ended); and (d) a minimum adjusted EBITDA at the end of each quarter of no less than $1 million.

The BankUnited Facility is secured by all of the Company’s assets and both the Revolving Loan and Term Loan bear interest at the Prime Rate + 0.75% as of March 31, 2021.

As of March 31, the Company had $21,000,000 million outstanding under the Revolving Loan.

The Term Loan, as amended by the Eighth Amendment, had an aggregate principal amount of $6,708,333, payable in monthly installments, as defined in the agreement, as of March 31, 2021.

PPP Loan

On April 10, 2020, we entered into the Paycheck Protection Program loan (“PPP Loan”), with BNB Bank (now part of Dime Community Bank (“Dime”)) as the lender, in an aggregate principal amount of $4,795,000, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the CARES Act. The PPP Loan is evidenced by a promissory note (the “Note”). Subject to the terms of the Note, the PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of one percent (1%) per annum, with the first six months of interest deferred, has an initial term of two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The Note provides for customary events of default including, among other things, cross-defaults on any other loan with the lender. The PPP Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.

On November 2, 2020, the Company applied to the lender for full forgiveness of the PPP Loan as calculated in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act, as modified by the Paycheck Protection Flexibility Act. All amounts are classified as current or long term in accordance with the Note terms.

On July 13, 2021, the Company received notification through Dime that the PPP Loan and accrued interest thereon have been fully forgiven by the SBA and that the forgiveness payment date was July 1, 2021. The forgiveness of the PPP Loan will be recognized during the Company’s third fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2021.
