5. | LONG-TERM DEBT
Revolving Credit Facility On June 28, 2013, as amended on March 31, 2015 and June 3, 2015, Lakeland Industries, Inc. and its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Lakeland Protective Wear Inc. (collectively the “Borrowers”), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “AloStar Loan Agreement”) with AloStar Business Credit, a division of AloStar Bank of Commerce (“AloStar”). The AloStar Loan Agreement provided the Borrowers with a $15 million revolving line of credit (the “AloStar Credit Facility”), at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR, with a first priority lien on substantially all of the United States and Canada assets of the Company, except for its Mexican plant and the Canadian warehouse. After these amendments the maturity date of the AloStar Credit Facility was extended to June 28, 2017 and the minimum interest rate floor became 4.25% per annum. On May 10, 2017, the AloStar Loan Agreement was terminated, and the existing balance due was repaid with the proceeds from a new loan agreement with SunTrust Bank. On May 10, 2017, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with SunTrust Bank (“Lender”). The Loan Agreement provides the Company with a secured (i) $20.0 million revolving credit facility, which includes a $5.0 million letter of credit sub-facility, and (ii) $1,575,000 term loan with Lender. The Company may request from time to time an increase in the revolving credit loan commitment of up to $10.0 million (for a total commitment of up to $30.0 million). Borrowing pursuant to the revolving credit facility is subject to a borrowing base amount calculated as (a) 85% of eligible accounts receivable, as defined, plus (b) an inventory formula amount, as defined, minus (c) an amount equal to the greater of (i) $1,500,000 or (ii) 7.5% of the then current revolver commitment amount, minus (d) certain reserves as determined by the Loan Agreement. The credit facility matures on May 10, 2020 (subject to earlier termination upon the occurrence of certain events of default as set forth in the Loan Agreement). At the closing, the Company’s existing financing facility with AloStar was fully repaid and terminated using proceeds of the revolver in the amount of approximately $3.0 million. Borrowings under the term loan and the revolving credit facility bear interest at an interest rate determined by reference whether the loan is a base rate loan or Eurodollar loan, with the rate election made by the Company at the time of the borrowing or at any time the Company elects pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement. The term loan is payable in equal monthly principal installments of $13,125 each, beginning on June 1, 2017, and on the first day of each succeeding month, with a final payment of the remaining principal and interest on May 10, 2020 (subject to earlier termination as provided in the Loan Agreement). For that portion of the term loan that consists of Eurodollar loans, the term loan shall bear interest at the LIBOR Market Index Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.0% per annum, and for that portion of the term loan that consists of base rate loans, the term loan shall bear interest at the base rate then in effect plus 1.0% per annum. All principal and unpaid accrued interest under the revolver credit facility shall be due and payable on the maturity date of the revolver. For that portion of the revolver loan that consists of Eurodollar loans, the revolver shall bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin rate of 1.75% per annum for the first six months and thereafter between 1.5% and 2.0%, depending on the Company’s “availability calculation” (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and, for that portion of the revolver that consists of base rate loans, the revolver shall bear interest at the base rate then in effect plus a margin rate of 0.75% per annum for the first six months and thereafter between 0.50% and 1.0%, depending on the availability calculation. As of the closing, the Company elected all borrowings under the Loan Agreement to accrue interest at LIBOR which, as of that date, was 0.99500%. As such, the initial rate of interest for the revolver is 2.745% per annum and the initial rate of interest for the term loan is 2.995% per annum. The Loan Agreement provides for payment of an unused line fee of between 0.25% and 0.50%, depending on the amount by which the revolving credit loan commitment exceeds the amount of the revolving credit loans outstanding (including letters of credit), which shall be payable monthly in arrears on the average daily unused portion of the revolver. There was a $0 balance on revolver at January 31, 2018 and $4.8 million at January 31, 2017. The Company agreed to maintain a minimum “fixed charge coverage ratio” (as defined in the Loan Agreement) as of the end of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2017, of not less than 1.10 to 1.00 during the applicable fiscal quarter, and agreed to certain negative covenants that are customary for credit arrangements of this type, including restrictions on the Company’s ability to enter into mergers, acquisitions or other business combination transactions, conduct its business, grant liens, make certain investments, incur additional indebtedness, and make stock repurchases. In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company entered into a security agreement, dated May 10, 2017, with Lender pursuant to which the Company granted to Lender a first priority perfected security interest in substantially all real and personal property of the Company. Borrowings in UK On December 31, 2014, the Company and Lakeland Industries Europe, Ltd, (“Lakeland UK”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, amended the terms of its existing line of credit facility with HSBC Bank to provide for (i) a one-year extension of the maturity date of the existing financing facility to December 19, 2016, (ii) an increase in the facility limit from £1,250,000 (approximately USD $1.9 million, based on exchange rates at time of closing) to £1,500,000 (approximately USD $2.3 million, based on exchange rates at time of closing), and (iii) a decrease in the annual interest rate margin from 3.46% to 3.0%. In addition, pursuant to a letter agreement dated December 5, 2014, the Company agreed that £400,000 (approximately USD $0.6 million, based on exchange rates at time of closing) of the note payable by the UK subsidiary to the Company shall be subordinated in priority of payment to the subsidiary’s obligations to HSBC under the financing facility. The balance under this loan outstanding at January 31, 2018 and January 31, 2017 was USD $0.2 million and USD $0.1 million, respectively, and is included in short-term borrowings on the consolidated balance sheet. On December 31, 2016, Lakeland UK entered into an extension of the maturity date of its existing facility with HSBC Invoice Finance (UK) Ltd. to December 19, 2017. Other than the extension of the maturity date and a small reduction of the service charge from 0.9% to 0.85%, all other terms of the facility remained the same. On September 4, 2017 the facility was amended to include Algeria as an approved country. On December 4, 2017 the facility was extended to March 31, 2018 for the next review period and, as of March 9, 2018 the facility was extended to mature on March 31, 2019 with no additional changes to the terms. Canada Loans In September 2013, the Company refinanced its loan with the Development Bank of Canada (“BDC”) for a principal amount of approximately $1.1 million in both Canadian dollars and USD (based on exchange rates at time of closing). Such loan was for a term of 240 months at an interest rate of 6.45% per annum with fixed monthly payments of approximately USD $6,048 (CAD $8,169) including principal and interest. It was collateralized by a mortgage on the Company's warehouse in Brantford, Ontario. This loan was paid in full on September 26, 2017. The amount outstanding at January 31, 2017 was USD $716,000 (CAD $1.0 million) in long term borrowings, net of current maturities of USD $50,000. Argentina Loan In April 2015, Lakeland Argentina S.R.L. (“Lakeland Argentina”), the Company’s Argentina subsidiary was granted a $300,000 line of credit denominated in Argentine pesos, pursuant to a standby letter of credit granted by the parent company. The line of credit outstanding at January 31, 2018, was approximately $31,000 noted below. The following three loans were made under the $300,000 facility stated above: On July 1, 2016, Lakeland Argentina and Banco de la Nación Argentina (“BNA”) entered into an agreement for Lakeland Argentina to obtain a loan in the amount of ARS 569,000 (approximately USD $38,000, based on exchange rates at time of closing); such loan was for a term of one year at an interest rate of 27.06% per annum. This agreement was paid in full prior to January 31, 2018. May 19, 2017 Lakeland Argentina and BNA entered into an agreement for Lakeland Argentina to obtain a loan in the amount of ARS 1.8 million (approximately USD $112,000, based on exchange rates at time of closing); such loan is for a term of one year at an interest rate of 20.0% per annum. The amount outstanding at January 31, 2018 was ARS $0.6 million (approximately USD $31,000 which is included as short-term borrowings on the consolidated balance sheet.)
