DEBT | 7. DEBT Credit Facility On December 1, 2019, in connection with the PCRS Acquisition (as described in Note 10), we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with First Internet Bank of Indiana (“FIB”). The Credit Agreement was amended on March 27, 2020 to modify the definition of Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of covenant calculations and to modify the terms of the Initial Capex Line. The Credit Agreement includes five term loans (the “Initial Term Loan,” “Second Term Loan,” “Third Term Loan,” “Fourth Term Loan,” and “Fifth Term Loan,” respectively), a revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Facility”), a construction draw loan (the “Construction Draw Loan”), an equipment draw loan (the “Equipment Draw Loan”), and two capital expenditure instruments (the “Initial Capex Line” and the “Second Capex Line,” respectively). The Initial Term Loan for $4,500 bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.99%, with monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $33. The Initial Term Loan matures June 23, 2022. The balance on the Initial Term Loan at June 30, 2020 was $3,809. We used the proceeds from the Initial Term Loan to satisfy our indebtedness with Huntington Bank and terminated the related interest rate swap. The Second Term Loan for $5,500 was used to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Seventh Wave acquisition. Amounts outstanding under the Second Term Loan bear interest at a fixed per annum rate of 5.06%, with monthly principal and interest payments equal to $78. The Second Term Loan matures July 2, 2023 and the balance on the Second Term Loan at June 30, 2020 was $4,185. The Third Term Loan for $1,271 was used to fund the cash consideration for the Smithers Avanza Acquisition (as described in Note 10). Amounts outstanding under the Third Term Loan bear interest at a fixed per annum rate of 4.63%. The Third Term Loan required monthly interest only payments until December 1, 2019, from which time payments of principal and interest in monthly installments of $20 are required, with all accrued but unpaid interest, cost and expenses due and payable at the maturity date. The Third Term Loan matures November 1, 2025 and the balance on the Third Term Loan at June 30, 2020 was $1,162. The Fourth Term Loan in the principal amount of $1,500 has a maturity of June 1, 2025. Interest accrues on the Fourth Term Loan at a fixed per annum rate equal to 4%, with interest payments only commencing January 1, 2020 through June 1, 2020, with monthly payments of principal and interest thereafter through maturity. The balance on the Fourth Term Loan at June 30, 2020 was $1,493. The Fifth Term loan in the principal amount of $1,939 has a maturity of December 1, 2024. Interest accrues on the Fifth Term Loan at a fixed per annum rate equal to 4%, with payments of principal and interest due monthly through maturity. The balance on the Fifth Term Loan at June 30, 2020 was $1,907. We entered into the Fourth Term Loan and the Fifth Term Loan in connection with the PCRS Acquisition (as described in Note 10). The Revolving Facility provides a line of credit for up to $5,000, which the Company may borrow from time to time, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, including as may be limited by the amount of the Company’s outstanding eligible receivables. The Revolving Facility has a maturity of January 31, 2021 and requires monthly accrued and unpaid interest payments only until maturity at a floating per annum rate equal to the greater of (a) 4%, or (b) the sum of the Prime Rate plus Zero Basis Points (0.0%), which rate shall change concurrently with the Prime Rate. The Company did not have an outstanding balance on the Revolving Facility as of June 30, 2020. The Construction Draw Loan provides for borrowings up to a principal amount not to exceed $4,445 and the Equipment Draw Loan provides for borrowings up to a principal amount not to exceed $1,429. The Construction Draw Loan and Equipment Draw Loan each mature on March 28, 2025. As of June 30, 2020, there was a $4,337 balance on the Construction Draw Loan and a $1,348 balance on the Equipment Draw Loan. Subject to certain conditions precedent, the Construction Draw Loan and an Equipment Draw Loan each permitted the Company to obtain advances aggregating up to the maximum principal amount available for such loan through March 28, 2020. Amounts outstanding under these loans bear interest at a fixed per annum rate of 5.20%. The Construction Draw Loan and the Equipment Draw Loan each require monthly payments of accrued interest on amounts outstanding through March 28, 2020, and thereafter monthly payments of principal and interest on amounts then outstanding through maturity. We have utilized funds from the Construction Draw Loan and the Equipment Draw Loan in connection with the Evansville facility expansion. The Initial Capex Line previously provided for borrowings up to the principal amount of $1,100, which the Company could borrow from time to time, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement. On March 27, 2020, the parties amended the Initial Capex Line to eliminate the revolving nature of the line in favor of a term loan in the principal amount of $948, equivalent to the amount of borrowings then outstanding on the Initial Capex Line. As amended, the Initial Capex Line matures on June 30, 2025, and as of June 30, 2020, had a balance of $948. Interest accrues on the principal balance of the Initial Capex Line at a fixed per annum rate equal to 4%. The Company is required to pay accrued but unpaid interest on the Initial Capex Line on a monthly basis until June 30, 2020. Commencing August 1, 2020, and on the first day of each monthly period thereafter until and including on the maturity date, the Initial Capex Line requires payments of principal and interest in monthly installments equal to $17. The Second Capex Line provides for borrowings up to the principal amount of $3,000, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, with a maturity of December 31, 2020 and interest payments only until maturity at a floating per annum rate equal to the greater of (a) 4%, or (b) the sum of the Prime Rate plus Fifty Basis Points (0.5%), which rate shall change concurrently with the Prime Rate. At June 30, 2020, the balance on the Second Capex Line was $2,129. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by BAS Evansville, Inc. (“BASEV”), Seventh Wave Laboratories, LLC, BASi Gaithersburg LLC, as well as Bronco Research Services LLC (“Bronco”), each a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the "Guarantors"). The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement and the Guarantor's obligations under their respective guaranties are secured by first priority security interests in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, mortgages on the Company’s, BASEV’s and Bronco’s facilities in West Lafayette, Indiana, Evansville, Indiana, and Fort Collins, Colorado, respectively, and pledges of the Company’s ownership interests in its subsidiaries. Except as provided below, the Credit Agreement includes financial covenants consisting of (i) a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.25 to 1.0, tested quarterly and measured on a trailing twelve (12) month basis and (ii) beginning March 31, 2020 a Cash Flow Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), tested quarterly, as follows: not to exceed (a) as of March 31, 2020, 5.00 to 1.00, (b) as of June 30, 2020, 4.50 to 1.00, (c) as of September 30, 2020, 4.25 to 1.00 and (d) as of December 31, 2020 and each quarter thereafter, 4.00 to 1.00. The amendment to the Credit Agreement on March 27, 2020 modified the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, including for purposes of covenant calculations. As amended, the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA includes (i) the addition of a decreasing amount of proforma EBITDA from Pre-Clinical Research Services, Inc. (which the Company acquired in the first quarter of fiscal 2020) for each quarter of fiscal 2020 and (ii) the addition or subtraction of certain non-cash expenses or income recognized. Upon an event of default, which includes certain customary events such as, among other things, a failure to make required payments when due, a failure to comply with covenants, certain bankruptcy and insolvency events, and defaults under other material indebtedness, FIB may cease advancing funds, increase the interest rate on outstanding balances, accelerate amounts outstanding, terminate the agreement and foreclose on all collateral. The Company has also agreed to obtain a life insurance policy in an amount not less than $5,000 for its President and Chief Executive Officer and to provide FIB an assignment of such life insurance policy as collateral. The Company entered into a Credit Agreement modification on August 13, 2020 with FIB. Based on the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations and financial performance, FIB suspended testing of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and the Cash Flow Leverage Ratio for the June 30, 2020 compliance period. The modification also updated the definition of Total Funded Debt under the Credit Agreement to exclude the funding of the Company’s $5,051 loan pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) under Division A, Title 1 of the CARES Act until the SBA has made a determination regarding forgiveness of the loan. Any PPP loan balance not forgiven will thereafter immediately be deemed funded debt for purposes of the Total Funded Debt definition. In addition to the indebtedness under our Credit Agreement, as part of the Smithers Avanza Acquisition, we have an unsecured promissory note payable to the Smithers Avanza Seller in the initial principal amount of $810 made by BASi Gaithersburg and guaranteed by the Company. The promissory note bears interest at 6.5% with monthly payments and maturity date of May 1, 2022. As part of the PCRS Acquisition, we also have an unsecured promissory note payable to the PCRS Seller in the initial principal amount of $800. The promissory note bears interest at 4.5% with monthly payments and a maturity date of December 1, 2024. On April 23, 2020, the Company was granted a loan (the “Loan”) from Huntington National Bank in the aggregate amount of $5,051, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under Division A, Title I of the CARES Act, which was enacted March 27, 2020. The principal and accrued interest under the Loan is to be repaid in eighteen installments of $283 beginning on November 16, 2020 and continuing monthly until the final payment is due on April 16, 2022. The Company plans to seek forgiveness of the Loan. Long term debt is detailed in the table below.
