Canadian Credit Facilities

 

In April 2016, our wholly owned subsidiary, Pioneer Electrogroup Canada Inc., entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“CAD ARCA”) with Bank of Montreal (“BMO”) with respect to our existing Canadian credit facilities (as amended and restated, the “Canadian Facilities”) that replaced and superseded all of our businesses’ prior financing arrangements with the bank. This CAD ARCA extended the maturity date of our Canadian Facilities to July 31, 2017. The CAD ARCA was further amended (the “2017 CAD ARCA Amendment”) on March 15, 2017, and again on March 28, 2018 (the “2018 CAD ARCA Amendment”). The 2018 CAD ARCA Amendment extended the term of our Canadian Facilities to April 1, 2020. On August 8, 2019, BMO agreed to a temporary borrowing base increase until the earlier of the (i) closing of the Equity Transaction and repayment in full of all amounts owned under the Canadian Facilities and the U.S. Facilities, and (ii) August 31, 2019.

 

Our Canadian Facilities provided for up to $8.2 million Canadian dollars (“CAD”) (approximately $6.3 million expressed in U.S. dollars) consisting of a revolving $7.0 million CAD revolving credit facility (“Facility A”) to finance ongoing operations, a $471 CAD term credit facility (“Facility B”) that financed a plant expansion, and a $712 USD Facility (“Facility C”) that financed a business acquisition and the purchase and expansion of its manufacturing facilities. The 2017 CAD ARCA Amendment increased the Facility A to $8.0 million CAD, increasing the total amount of loans available under the Canadian Facilities to $9.2 million CAD. We made the final principal payment under Facility B on April 30, 2018, and the outstanding principal balance under Facility C with proceeds received from the sale of the Farnham, Quebec, Canada, building in December 2018. All outstanding amounts under Facility A were paid in full on August 16, 2019, using proceeds from the Equity Transaction, and the underlying debt agreements were terminated. 

 

United States Credit Facilities

 

In April 2016, we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“US ARCA”) with BMO with respect to our existing U.S. facilities that replaced and superseded all of our businesses’ prior financing arrangements with the bank (the “U.S. Facilities”).The US ARCA was further amended (the “2017 US ARCA Amendment”) on March 15, 2017, and again on March 28, 2018 (the “2018 US ARCA Amendment”). The 2018 US ARCA Amendment extended the term of our US Facilities to April 1, 2020.

 

Our U.S. Facilities, as amended and restated, provided for up to $19.1 million USD consisting of a $14.0 million USD demand revolving credit facility (“USD Facility A”) to finance ongoing operations, a $5.0 million USD term loan facility (“USD Facility B”) that financed the acquisition of Titan, and a new $100 revolving credit facility provided pursuant to a MasterCard is to be used to pay for and temporarily finance our day-to-day business expenses and for no other purpose. The 2017 US ARCA Amendment increased the USD Facility A to $15.0 million, increasing the total amount of loans available under the U.S. Facilities to $20.1 million USD. All outstanding amounts under USD Facilities A and B were paid in full on August 16, 2019, using proceeds from the Equity Transaction, and the underlying debt agreements were terminated.
