Term Loan

The Company has a $160,000 senior secured term loan facility (“Term Loan”) with a financial institution. The Term Loan was issued at a price of 99% of the aggregate principal amount and has a maturity date of December 3, 2020.

All of Sportsman’s Warehouse, Inc.’s obligations under the Term Loan are guaranteed by Holdings, Minnesota Merchandising Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings, and each of Sportsman’s Warehouse, Inc.’s subsidiaries.

The Term Loan is secured by a lien on substantially all of the Company’s tangible and intangible assets. The lien securing the obligations under the Term Loan is a first priority lien as to certain non-liquid assets, including equipment, intellectual property, proceeds of assets sales and other personal property.

The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments of $400 payable on the last business day of each fiscal quarter up to and including October 30, 2020. A final installment payment consisting of the remaining unpaid balance is due on December 3, 2020.

Sportsman’s Warehouse, Inc. may be required to make mandatory prepayments on the Term Loan in the event of, among other things, certain asset sales, the receipt of payment in respect of certain insurance claims or the issuance or incurrence of certain indebtedness. Sportsman’s Warehouse, Inc. may also be required to make mandatory prepayments based on any excess cash flows as defined in the agreement for the Term Loan. Due to the Company not having excess cash flow as of January 28, 2017, no mandatory prepayment will be required to be made during the fiscal year 2017.

The Term Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the one-, two-, three-, or six-month LIBOR (or, the nine- or 12-month LIBOR), as defined in the term loan agreement, at the Company’s election, which cannot be less than 1.25%, plus an applicable margin of 6.00%.

The Term Loan contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit the Company’s ability to incur, create or assume certain indebtedness, to incur or assume certain liens, to purchase, hold or acquire certain investments, to declare or make certain dividends and distributions and to engage in certain mergers, consolidations and asset sales. The Term Loan also requires the Company to comply with specified financial covenants, including a minimum interest coverage ratio on a trailing twelve month basis and a maximum total net leverage ratio. The Term Loan also contains customary events of default.

As of January 28, 2017, the Term Loan had $134,704 outstanding, net of an unamortized discount of $877 and debt issuance costs of $1,146. During fiscal year 2016, Company recognized $411 of non-cash interest expense with respect to the amortization of this discount. During fiscal year 2015, the Company recognized $266 of non-cash interest expense with respect to the amortization of the discount on the term loan.

Restricted Net Assets

The provisions of the Term Loan and the Revolving Line of Credit restrict all of the net assets of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries, which constitute all of the net assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 28, 2017, from being used to pay any dividends without prior written consent from the financial institutions party to the Company’s Term Loan and Revolving Line of Credit.
