The Loan Agreement provided funds to refinance all existing indebtedness to the Company’s previous lender and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. In addition, the credit facility provided a sub-line for the issuance of up to $6.5 million of letters of credit at April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018.

At April 30, 2019, there were advances of $9.5 million and $5.2 million in letters of credit outstanding, leaving $5.3 million available under the Line of Credit. The borrowing rate under the Line of Credit at that date was 4.00%. Monthly interest payments under the Line of Credit were payable at the Daily One Month LIBOR interest rate plus 1.50% per annum. Payments are due under Term Loan A in consecutive equal monthly principal payments in the amount of $79,000 until May 1, 2020, and at that time, all principal, accrued unpaid interest and other charges outstanding under Term Loan A shall be due and payable in full. The interest rate on Term Loan A, after consideration of related interest rate swap agreements, is a fixed rate per annum equal to 4.37%. Payments are due under Term Loan B in consecutive equal monthly principal payments in the amount of $18,000 until May 1, 2020, and at that time, all principal, accrued unpaid interest and other charges outstanding under Term Loan B shall be due and payable in full. The interest rate on Term Loan B, after consideration of the related interest rate swap agreement, effective November 3, 2014, converted to a fixed rate per annum of 3.07%.

Scheduled annual principal payments for the term loans are $1,167,000 and $97,000 for fiscal years 2020 and 2021, respectively.

The Loan Agreement includes financial covenants with respect to certain ratios, including (a) senior funded debt to EBITDA, (b) fixed charge coverage, and (c) asset coverage. At April 30, 2019, the Company was not in compliance with all of the financial covenants. The Company received a waiver from its lender for this noncompliance pursuant to a waiver letter executed on June 19, 2019 ("the Waiver Letter"). In connection with the Waiver Letter, the Company entered into a Security Agreement pursuant to which the Company granted a security interest in substantially all of its assets to secure its obligations under the Loan Agreement. On July 9, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to amend the Loan Agreement and the Line of Credit to effect a change in the financial covenants set forth in the Loan Agreement. The amendment does not change the amount of availability provided by Company’s Line of Credit.
