Credit Facilities

AloStar Credit Facility

On August 23, 2012, the Company established a $20,000 secured revolving line of credit (the “AloStar Credit Facility”) with AloStar Bank of Commerce (“AloStar”). On June 29, 2015, the AloStar Credit Facility was amended to extend the maturity date to August 31, 2016, modify the applicable interest rate and minimum quarterly interest charges and convert $5,000 of the original AloStar Credit Facility amount to a term loan (the “Term Loan”). Under the AloStar Credit Facility, AloStar advanced funds when requested against a borrowing base consisting of approximately 85% of the face value of eligible A/R of the Company and approximately 50% of the book value of eligible inventory of the Company. Borrowings under the AloStar Credit Facility bore interest at a per annum rate equal to the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin of 3.25%. The Company also paid an unused facility fee to AloStar equal to 0.50% per annum on the unused portion of the AloStar Credit Facility along with other standard fees. AloStar funded the full amount of the Term Loan on June 30, 2015. Borrowings under the Term Loan bore interest at a per annum rate equal to 3.50% plus the applicable daily weighted average LIBOR. The Term Loan payments were amortized at approximately $60 per month. In June 2016, the Company paid off the remaining $2,441 outstanding under the Term Loan.

In connection with the AloStar Credit Facility, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, dated August 23, 2012 (as amended, the “AloStar Loan Agreement”), which contained customary representations and warranties. The AloStar Loan Agreement contained a requirement that the Company, on a consolidated basis, maintain a minimum monthly fixed charge coverage ratio (the “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Covenant”) and achieve minimum monthly  earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring and share-based payments (the “Adjusted EBITDA Covenant”), along with other customary restrictive covenants, certain of which were subject to materiality thresholds, baskets and customary exceptions and qualifications. The Company’s obligations under the AloStar Loan Agreement were secured by, subject to certain exclusions, (i) a first priority security interest in all of the A/R, inventory, chattel paper, payment intangibles, cash and cash equivalents and other working capital assets and stock or other equity interests in the Company’s subsidiaries, and (ii) a first priority security interest in all of the equipment of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Brad Foote Gear Works, Inc. an Illinois corporation (“Brad Foote”). On February 23, 2016, the parties executed the Ninth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Ninth Amendment”), which waived the Company’s non-compliance with the Adjusted EBITDA Covenant as of December 31, 2015, amended the Adjusted EBITDA Covenant going forward, provided that the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Covenant would be recalculated for future periods commencing with the quarter ending June 30, 2016, reduced the amount of the AloStar Credit Facility to $10,000 and extended the maturity date of the AloStar Credit Facility to February 28, 2017. The Ninth Amendment also contained a liquidity requirement of $3,500 and established a reserve against the borrowing base in an amount equal to the outstanding balance of the Term Loan at any given time. On August 29, 2016, the parties executed a Tenth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement which removed the liquidity requirement set forth in the Ninth Amendment and removed the exclusion of certain customer A/R.

The PrivateBank Credit Facility

On October 26, 2016, the Company established the New Credit Facility with PrivateBank to replace the AloStar Credit Facility. The Company incurred extinguishment losses of $77 related to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs. Under the New Credit Facility, PrivateBank will advance funds when requested against a borrowing base consisting of up to 85% of the face value of the Company’s eligible A/R, up to 50% of the book value of eligible inventory and up to 50% of the appraised value of eligible machinery, equipment and certain real property up to $10,000. Upon achieving at least $7,000 in EBITDA during fiscal year 2016, the Company has the ability to request a $5,000 increase in the amount of the New Credit Facility. Borrowings under the New Credit Facility bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to 3.00%, or the applicable base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.00%, both of which are based on the our trailing twelve-month EBITDA. The Company will also pay an unused facility fee to PrivateBank equal to 0.50% per annum on the unused portion of the New Credit Facility, along with other standard fees. The New Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties. It also contains a requirement that the Company, on a consolidated basis, maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Covenant, along with other customary restrictive covenants. The obligations under the New Credit Facility are be secured by, subject to certain exclusions, (i) a first priority security interest in all accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, cash and investment property, and (ii) a mortgage on the Abilene, Texas tower facility. On February 10, 2017, a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement and Joinder to Loan and Security Agreement were executed to add Red Wolf as a borrower under the New Credit Facility.

As of December 31, 2016, there was no outstanding indebtedness under the New Credit Facility. The Company had the ability to borrow up to $17,226 under the New Credit Facility as of December 31, 2016.
