Lines of Credit
BB&T Bank
At June 30, 2016, the Company had a Master Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") and Revolving Credit Note with BB&T Bank.  The Company and its subsidiary, GSE Performance Solutions, Inc., were jointly and severally liable as co-borrowers.  The Loan Agreement provides a $7.5 million revolving line of credit for the purpose of (i) issuing stand-by letters of credit and (ii) providing working capital.  Working capital advances bear interest at a rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate of Interest, floating with a floor of 4.5%.
The agreement would have expired on June 30, 2016, but on June 17, 2016, the Company and BB&T Bank amended the Loan Agreement to extend the expiration date until September 30, 2016.  All other terms and conditions remained the same.
As collateral for the Company's obligations, the Company granted a first lien and security interest in all of the assets of the Company, including but not limited to, contract receivables, intangible assets, equipment, software and leasehold improvements.

The Company is to maintain a segregated cash collateral account at BB&T Bank equal to the greater of (i) $3.0 million or (ii) the aggregate principal amounts of all loans outstanding under the revolving credit facility (including any issued and outstanding letters of credit, working capital advances, and negative foreign exchange positions) as security for the Company's obligations.  Under this amendment, BB&T Bank has complete and unconditional control over the cash collateral account.
At June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2015, the cash collateral account totaled $3.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The balances were classified as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Loan Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants regarding future acquisitions and incurrence of debt.  In addition, the Loan Agreement contains financial covenants with respect to the Company's minimum tangible capital base and quick ratio.
