Debt
On September 23, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with JPMorgan, BMO, and City National Bank, as lenders (collectively, the “Lenders”), and JPMorgan as administrative agent, pursuant to which the Lenders provided the Company with a $100.0 million revolving line of credit (the “Revolver”) and a $50.0 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan”), guaranteed by each of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, with the exception of the Company’s investment in Windset.
On November 30, 2018, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the "Amendment"), which increased the Term Loan to $100.0 million and the Revolver to $105.0 million. Both the Revolver and the Term Loan continue to mature on September 23, 2021, with the Term Loan requiring quarterly principal payments to increase to $2.5 million beginning March 1, 2019, with the remainder continuing to be due at maturity.
The primarily purpose of the Amendment was to fund the Company's acquisition of Yucatan Foods and its related entities on December 1, 2018, to pay certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the Amendment, and for other general corporate purposes. See Note 2 - Acquisitions for more details on Yucatan Foods acquisition.
Interest on both the Revolver and the Term Loan continues to be based upon the Company’s leverage ratio (generally defined as the ratio of the Company’s total indebtedness on such date to the Company’s consolidated EBITDA for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ended on or most recently prior to such date), at a per annum rate of either (i) the prime rate plus a spread of between 0.25% and 2.25% or (ii) the Eurodollar rate plus a spread of between 1.25% and 3.25%. The Amendment increased the leverage ratio covenant to 4.50 to 1.00 from 3.50 to 1.00 through August 25, 2019, which decreases to 4.00 to 1.00 effective November 24, 2019.
The Credit Agreement provides the Company the right to increase the Revolver commitments and/or the Term Loan commitments by obtaining additional commitments either from one or more of the Lenders or another lending institution at an amount of up to $10.0 million.
The Credit Agreement continues to contain customary financial covenants and events of default under which the obligation could be accelerated and/or the interest rate increased. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of May 26, 2019.
As of May 26, 2019, $52.0 million was outstanding on the Revolver, at an interest rate of 5.24% under the Eurodollar option.
