7.	LONG-TERM DEBT

On March 25, 2016 the Company entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) for a $32,000,000 term loan due March 25, 2021 (the “Term Loan”), the proceeds of which were received on March 25, 2016 and were used to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s existing Credit Facility (see Note 6). The interest rate on the Term Loan is equal to a LIBOR rate (with a 1.00% LIBOR floor) plus 7.50%. The Company is required to make minimum repayments of the principal amount of the Term Loan in quarterly installments of $800,000 each, with the remaining outstanding balance payable on the maturity date. Additionally, the Term Loan can be prepaid at the Company's option subject to certain restrictions, in part or in whole at any time, subject to the payment of a prepayment premium as follows: 1) 3% on or prior to the first anniversary of the closing date, 2) 2% from the first anniversary to the second anniversary of the closing date, and 3) 1% after the second anniversary but on or prior to the third anniversary of the closing date. Effective December 19, 2016 the Company’s Term Loan lenders consented to the Merger and the Term Loan Agreement was amended to change the definition of Consolidated EBITDA (see below) to allow the Company to add back certain transaction costs relating to the Merger and modified the financial covenant limiting capital expenditures (see below). Effective April 7, 2017 the Term Loan Agreement was further amended to allow the Company to enter into certain equipment financing arrangements, on the condition that a portion of the proceeds of such financing be applied as a prepayment of the Term Loan. The April 7, 2017 Term Loan Agreement amendment also provides for an additional reserve of $5,000,000 against availability under the Credit Facility that will be reduced dollar for dollar for prepayments of the Term Loan in accordance with the amendment (see Note 6) and eliminates the covenant requiring maintenance of a minimum level of Consolidated EBITDA (see below). On June 6, 2017 $3,401,000 of proceeds from an equipment financing transaction (see below) were used to prepay a portion of the Company’s Term Loan and to reduce the required additional reserve to $1,599,000.

The Term Loan is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company, including accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, letter of credit rights, cash, intellectual property and other intangibles, and certain other assets. The security interest granted to the Term Lenders is, in certain respects, subordinate to the security interest granted to the Credit Facility Lender. The Term Loan Agreement prohibits the payment of dividends or share repurchases by the Company for three years and imposes certain restrictions on the Company's ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness and enter into other various types of transactions. The Term Loan Agreement, as amended on April 7, 2017, requires the Company to maintain Excess Availability (as defined in the related Credit Facility agreement) equal to the greater of 10% of the Combined Loan Cap (as defined in the related Credit Facility agreement) or $10,000,000. Prior to the April 7, 2017 Term Loan Agreement amendment, the Company was required to maintain quarterly Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the related Term Loan Agreement) in an amount not less than the levels specified for each period in the Term Loan Agreement up to $30,000,000 for the four fiscal quarters ending on February 1, 2020 and thereafter. For all periods prior to the elimination of the Consolidated EBITDA covenant, the Company’s Consolidated EBITDA exceeded the Consolidated EBITDA requirements under the Term Loan Agreement. The April 7, 2017 Term Loan Agreement amendment prohibits the Company from making capital expenditures (net of tenant allowances) in excess of a specified amount in any period of four fiscal quarters (subject to carryforward of 50% of any underutilization). The limitation on capital expenditures ranges from $16,000,000 for the four fiscal quarters ending on January 28, 2017 to $10,500,000 for the four fiscal quarters ending on February 3, 2018, and increases to $17,000,000 for the four fiscal quarters ending on May 5, 2018 and thereafter. For the four fiscal quarters ended on April 29, 2017 the Company’s net capital expenditures did not exceed the $14,625,000 limit. Any amounts outstanding under the Term Loan may be accelerated and become due and payable immediately upon an event of default and expiration of any applicable cure period.

In connection with the execution of the Term Loan Agreement and subsequent amendments, the Company incurred deferred financing costs of $1,497,000. These deferred financing costs are reflected as a direct deduction from the Term Loan liability in the consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the term of the Term Loan Agreement and included in “interest expense, net” in the consolidated statements of operations.

As of April 29, 2017 and April 30, 2016 there was $8,562,000 and $11,484,000, respectively, outstanding under a five-year equipment financing arrangement with the Company’s Credit Facility bank. The equipment note bears annual interest at 3.38%, with payments of $272,000 (including interest) due monthly through December 2019. The equipment note is collateralized by substantially all of the material handling equipment at the Company’s distribution facility in Florence, New Jersey. Any amounts outstanding under the equipment note may be accelerated and become due and payable immediately upon an event of default and expiration of any applicable cure period.

On June 6, 2017 the Company received $3,401,000 in proceeds from a three-year financing arrangement in the form of a sale and leaseback for certain furniture, fixtures and software. Monthly payments under the leaseback arrangement are $123,000 for the first 24 months and $48,000 for months 25 to 36. At the end of the leaseback term, the Company has the option to extend the lease for an additional year or to repurchase the financed property for a price to be agreed. All of the proceeds from the transaction were used to prepay a portion of the Company’s Term Loan.
