Under the financing agreement, prepayment of the mortgage note up to $100,000 per year is allowed without penalty so long as the funds used for any repayment are generated through internal cash flow and not borrowed from a separate financial institution. The mortgage note is cross collateralized and cross defaulted with all other credit facilities of Torotel Products and is secured by a first real estate mortgage on the property located at 620 North Lindenwood Drive in Olathe, Kansas.

 

The working capital revolving line of credit is renewable annually. The associated interest rate is equal to the greater of the floating Commerce Bank Prime Rate (currently 5.00%) or a floor of 4% (as listed above).  Monthly repayments of interest only are required under the working capital revolving line of credit promissory note with the principal due at maturity.  This working capital revolving line of credit is cross collateralized and cross defaulted with all other credit facilities and arrangements of Torotel Products with the Bank and is secured by a first lien on all business assets of Torotel Products. This working capital revolving line of credit is scheduled to mature on October 20, 2018, and Torotel Products expects to negotiate an extension of that maturity date.

 

On March 31, 2017, Torotel Products entered into a $500,000 building revolving line of credit, which is available for working capital purposes and is renewable annually. The associated interest rate is equal to the greater of the floating Commerce Bank Prime Rate (currently 5.00%) or a floor of 4% (as listed above). Monthly repayments of interest only are required with the principal due at maturity. The maximum borrowing of this building line of credit is $500,000. This facility is cross collateralized and cross defaulted with all other facilities and is secured by a first lien on the building located at 620 North Lindenwood Drive in Olathe, Kansas. This building revolving line of credit is scheduled to mature on October 20, 2018, and Torotel Products expects to negotiate an extension of that maturity date.

 

The equipment note is a guidance line of credit to be used for equipment purchases. Monthly repayments consisting of both interest and principal are required. This note is cross collateralized and cross defaulted with all other facilities of Torotel Products and is secured by a purchase money security interest in the assets purchased as well as a first lien on all business assets of Torotel Products.  The maximum borrowing of this line of credit is $500,000.

 

Torotel Products is required to comply with specified financial covenants of the financing agreement with Commerce Bank. As of July 31,  2018, Torotel Products was not in compliance with the covenants in such financing agreement that require (1) a ratio of EBITDA (as defined in the financing agreement) to fixed charge coverage (as defined in the financing agreement) in excess of 1.100 to 1.000, and (2) that Torotel maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth (as defined in the financing agreement) of $4,500,000.  A waiver for non-compliance with these covenants was received from Commerce Bank for the period ending July 31, 2018.
