3. | DEBT
On October 31, 2024, Ultralife, SWE, CLB, Excell USA, and Electrochem, as borrowers, and certain other subsidiaries of the Company, entered into a new Credit and Security Agreement with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank” or the “Bank”), as lender and administrative agent (the “New Credit Agreement”). The proceeds of the loans under the New Credit Agreement, were used, in part, to repay outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s Amended Credit Agreement. The New Credit Agreement, among other things, provides in its term loan provisions for a 5-year, $55 million senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan” or “Term Loan Facility”). The Term Loan is subject to repayment in quarterly installments commencing March 31, 2025 in amounts as set forth in the New Credit Agreement. Interest is payable on the unpaid principal outstanding under the Term Loan. All amounts of unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest remaining due under the Term Loan are scheduled to be paid in full October 31, 2029. Upon closing of the Acquisition on October 31, 2024 (see Note 2), the Company borrowed the full amount of the Term Loan Facility. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $50,937 outstanding principal on the Term Loan, $3,781 of which is included in current portion of long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets, and no amounts outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2025, unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the Term Loan of $638 are classified on the consolidated balance sheets as a reduction of long-term debt, and unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the Revolving Credit Facility of $441 are classified on the consolidated balance sheets as other noncurrent assets. Debt issuance costs include lender fees and certain costs paid to third parties, including legal and accountant fees, and are amortized to interest expense over the term of the New Credit Agreement. The New Credit Agreement also provides under its revolving credit provisions for revolving loans, letters of credit, and swing loans (“Revolving Credit Facility”). Upon the effectiveness of the New Credit Agreement, any amounts outstanding under letters of credit issued pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement became issued under the New Credit Agreement. The availability under the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to certain borrowing base limits based on trade receivables and inventories. All unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility is due and payable in full on October 31, 2029. The Company may voluntarily prepay principal amounts outstanding under the New Credit Agreement at any time subject to certain advance notifications and other restrictions. In addition to the customary affirmative and negative covenants, the Company must maintain a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the New Credit Agreement, of equal to or greater than 1.15 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2025, and for each fiscal quarter thereafter, as calculated for the four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters ending on such date, and a consolidated senior leverage ratio, as defined in the New Credit Agreement, not to exceed (i) 3.50 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2025 through December 31, 2025, (ii) 3.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2026 through December 31, 2026, (iii) 3.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2027 and on the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter, for the remaining term of the New Credit Agreement. The Company was in full compliance with its covenants under the New Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2025. Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and certain of its present and future subsidiaries who are or become parties to, or guarantors under the new Credit Agreement. Interest will accrue on outstanding indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facilities at a variable rate of interest based on designated interest rate benchmarks plus a varying margin determined by reference to the consolidated senior leverage ratio in effect from time to time. Our borrowing rate was 6.62% as of September 30, 2025. The Company must pay a fee of twenty, twenty-five or thirty basis points (depending on the consolidated senior leverage ratio in effect from time to time) based on the average daily unused availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company must make payments to the extent borrowings exceed the maximum amount then permitted to be borrowed and from the proceeds of certain transactions. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the outstanding obligations may be accelerated, and the Bank will have other customary remedies including resort to the security interest the Company provided to the Bank. Future minimum principal repayment obligations on our Amended Credit Facilities as of September 30, 2025 are as follows:
2025 |  | $ | 688 |
2026 |  |  | 4,125 |
2027 |  |  | 5,500 |
2028 |  |  | 5,500 |
2029 |  |  | 35,124 |
Total |  | $ | 50,937 |
