8. Debt
Long-term debt at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 consists of the following (in
thousands):
Line of Credit with Fifth Third Bank
The Company had a demand revolving credit line through Fifth Third Bank with a maximum
principal amount at December 31, 2010 of Canadian $6.0 million and availability based upon eligible
accounts receivable and inventory. At December 31, 2010, the outstanding balance in U.S. dollars
was $2.4 million with $3.1 million available for borrowings by its subsidiary, Engine Control
Systems, in Canada. The loan was collateralized by the assets of the Company. On March 31, 2009,
CSI failed to achieve two of the covenants under its Fifth Third Bank credit facility. These
covenants related to the annualized EBITDA and the funded debt to EBITDA ratio for its Engine
Control Systems subsidiary. Beginning in March 31, 2009 and through repayment in full, Fifth Third
Bank extended forbearance of the default, while converting the facility into a demand facility,
reducing the size of the
facility and increasing the rate for borrowings. The entire debt due to
Fifth Third Bank was repaid with the
completion of the financing facility with Faunus Group International (“FGI”) on February 16, 2011.
Secured Demand Facility with FGI
On February 14, 2011, the Company entered into Sale and Security Agreements with FGI to
provide for a $7.5 million secured demand facility backed by its receivables and inventory (the
“FGI Facility”). The FGI Facility has an initial two-year term and may be extended at the Company’s
option for additional one-year terms. In addition to the Company, the following subsidiaries
entered into Sale and Security Agreements with FGI: Catalytic Solutions, Inc., Engine Control
Systems Limited, Engine Control Systems Ltd. and Clean Diesel International, LLC (the “Credit
Subsidiaries”). The Company and the Credit Subsidiaries also entered into guarantees to guarantee
the performance of the others of their obligations under the Sale and Security Agreements. The
Company also granted FGI a first lien collateral interest in substantially all of its assets.
Under the FGI Facility, FGI can elect to purchase eligible accounts receivables from the
Company and the Credit Subsidiaries at up to 80% of the value of such receivables (retaining a 20%
reserve). Purchased receivables are subject to full recourse to the Company in the event of
nonpayment by the customer. FGI becomes responsible for the servicing and administration of the
accounts receivable purchased. The Company is not obligated to offer accounts in any month and FGI
has the right to decline to purchase any accounts. At FGI’s election, FGI may advance the Company
up to 80% of the value of any purchased accounts receivable, subject to the $7.5 million limit.
Reserves retained by FGI on any purchased receivable are expected to be refunded to the Company net
of interest and fees on advances once the receivables are collected from customers. The Company may
also borrow up to $1 million against eligible inventory subject to the aggregate $7.5 million limit
under the FGI Facility and certain other conditions.
The interest rate on advances or borrowings under the FGI Facility will be the greater of (i)
7.50% per annum and (ii) 2.50% per annum above the Wall Street Journal “prime rate” and was 7.50%
at June 30, 2011. Any advances or borrowings under the FGI Facility are due on demand. The Company
also agreed to pay FGI collateral management fees of: 0.44% per month on the face amount of
eligible receivables as to which advances have been made and 0.55% per month on borrowings against
inventory, if any. At any time outstanding advances or borrowings under the FGI Facility are less
than $2.4 million, the Company agreed to pay FGI standby fees of (i) the interest rate on the
difference between $2.4 million and the average outstanding amounts and (ii) 0.44% per month on 80%
of the amount by which advances or borrowings are less than the agreed $2.4 million minimum.
The Company paid FGI a one-time facility fee of $75,000 upon entry into the FGI Facility, and
agreed that it will pay a $150,000 termination fee if it terminates within the first 360 days
($76,000 if it terminates in second 360 days and prior to the expiration of the facility). FGI may
terminate the facility at any time. As such, the facility fee was
expensed in the first quarter of 2011. The termination fee is not payable upon a termination by FGI or upon
non-renewal.
The Company accounts for the sale of accounts receivable under the FGI Facility as a secured
borrowing with a pledge of the subject receivables as collateral, in accordance with ASC 860,
“Transfers and Servicing.” At June 30, 2011, the Company had $4.2 million of gross accounts
receivable pledged to FGI as collateral for short-term debt in the amount of $3.4 million. At June
30, 2011, the Company also had $1.0 million in borrowings outstanding against eligible inventory.
The Company was in compliance with the terms of the FGI Facility at June 30, 2011.
Secured Convertible Notes
In June 2010, the Company agreed to issue up to $4 million of secured convertible notes (the
“Secured Convertible Notes”) to a group of accredited investors. As agreed, $2.0 million were
issued in four equal installments ($0.5 million on each of June 2, 2010, June 8, 2010, June 28,
2010 and July 12, 2010), with the remaining $2.0 million issued on October 15, 2010 immediately
prior to the Merger. The Secured Convertible Notes contained two embedded financial instruments
that required separate accounting at fair value, a premium redemption feature related to a 2x
premium and a contingent equity forward related to the future funding commitment. The Secured
Convertible Notes also included a beneficial conversion feature totaling $1.3 million that was
contingent on the approval by the Company’s shareholders of certain amendments to its Articles of
Incorporation. The initial value of the embedded financial instruments was recorded as a discount
to the face value of the Secured Convertible Notes and was amortized using the effective interest
method though the original maturity date, which was August 2, 2010. The embedded financial
instruments were re-measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period with changes in fair
value recorded to other income (expense). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the
Company recognized $0.2 million in gain related to the change in fair value of the embedded
financial instruments
and $0.3 million in interest expense related to the amortization of discount. The aggregate $4.0
million of Secured Convertible Notes was converted into newly created CSI “Class B” common stock
immediately prior to the Merger, and exchanged for shares of CDTI common stock in the Merger.
6% Shareholder Note Payable due 2013 and Payment of Settlement Obligation
On December 30, 2010, the Company executed a Loan Commitment Letter with Kanis S.A., a
shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which Kanis S.A. loaned the Company $1.5 million. The loan
bears interest on the unpaid principal at a rate of six percent (6%), with interest only payable
quarterly on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing March 31, 2011. The
loan matures on June 30, 2013. In addition to principal and accrued interest, the Company is
obligated to pay Kanis S.A. at maturity a “Payment Premium” ranging from $100,000 to $200,000 based
proportionally on the number of days that the loan remains outstanding. There is no prepayment
penalty. The loan is unsecured.
In connection with the loan, the Company issued warrants to acquire 25,000 shares of its
common stock at $10.40 per share. The relative estimated fair value of such warrants represents
a discount from the face amount of the loan and has been recorded as a discount from the loan
amount. The discount is being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of
the loan.
On January 4, 2011, using proceeds of the loan and cash on hand, the Company paid $1.6 million
as satisfaction in full of its obligation to the seller of the Applied Utility Systems acquisition
pursuant to the October 20, 2010 long-term settlement agreement. This $1.6 million was a settlement
obligation and was classified in current liabilities at December 31, 2010.
8% Subordinated Convertible Shareholder Notes Due 2016
On April 11, 2011, the Company entered into a Subordinated Convertible Notes Commitment Letter
with Kanis S.A. (“Purchaser”) that provides for the sale and issuance by the Company of 8%
subordinated convertible notes (the “Notes”). As provided in the Commitment Letter, on May 6, 2011
Purchaser purchased from the Company at par $3.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes,
which bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears.
The Notes have a stated maturity of five years from the date of issuance, which maturity may
be accelerated by Purchaser in the event that: (i) the Company is in breach of the Notes or other
agreements between Company and Purchaser, or (ii) Purchaser provides written notice to the Company,
not less than 30 days prior to such date, that it elects to accelerate the maturity to a date not
earlier than November 11, 2012. Upon such acceleration, the Company would owe 100% of the principal
amount plus any accrued by unpaid interest.
The Notes also provide that the Company has the option to redeem the Notes at any time at a
price equal to 100% of the face amount plus accrued and unpaid interest through the date of
redemption. There is no prepayment penalty. Net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used
for general working capital purposes. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and
subordinated to existing and future secured indebtedness of the Company.
The outstanding principal balance of, plus accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes are
convertible subject to limitation at the option of Purchaser at anytime upon written notice given not less than
75 calendar days prior to the date of conversion into shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01
par value at an initial conversion price equal to $7.044 per share, which is equal to 120% of the
consolidated closing bid price per share of the Company’s common stock on April 8, 2011. The
Company cannot effect any conversion of the Notes, and Purchaser cannot convert any portion of the
Notes, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the aggregate number of shares of
Company common stock issued upon conversion would exceed 369,853 shares.
