We have a Loan Agreement dated March 10, 2016 (as amended the “Loan Agreement”) with MidFirst Bank (“the Bank”) which includes multiple loans. Term Loan #1 is comprised of Tranche A totaling $11.4 million and Tranche B totaling $4.2 million as of May 31, 2020, both with the maturity date of December 1, 2025. Tranche A has a fixed interest rate of 4.23% and interest is payable monthly. For Tranche B, interest is payable monthly at the bank adjusted LIBOR Index plus a tiered pricing rate based on the Company’s Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (2.44% at May 31, 2020). Term Loan #1 is secured by the primary office, warehouse and land.


We also have Term Loan #2 with the Bank totaling $2.9 million as of May 31, 2020, with the maturity date of June 28, 2021, and interest payable monthly at the bank adjusted LIBOR Index plus a tiered pricing rate based on the Company’s Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (2.44% at May 31, 2020).   Term Loan #2 is secured by our secondary warehouse and land. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company paid off Term Loan #2 (See Note 11).


The Loan Agreement also provides a $15.0 million revolving loan (“line of credit”) through August 15, 2020 with interest payable monthly at the bank adjusted LIBOR Index plus a tiered pricing rate based on the Company’s Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (2.44% at May 31, 2020).  


Tranche B of Term Loan #1, Term Loan #2 and the line of credit accrue interest at a tiered rate based on our Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio, which is payable monthly. The variable interest pricing tier is as follows:

Adjusted Funded Debt is defined as all long-term and short-term bank debt less the outstanding balances of Tranche A and Tranche B Term Loans.  EBITDA is defined in the Loan Agreement as earnings before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization expenses, reduced by rental income.  The $15.0 million line of credit is limited to advance rates on eligible receivables and eligible inventory levels.


We had no borrowings outstanding on our revolving credit agreement at May 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020. Available credit under the revolving credit agreement was approximately $9.0 million and $11.0 million at May 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020, respectively.


On August 15, 2019, the Company executed the Tenth Amendment Loan Agreement with the Bank related to our Loan Agreement. The amendment modified the Loan Agreement, extending the termination date of the line of credit to August 15, 2020, amended the definition of LIBOR Margin, reduced the frequency of reports to the Lender, amended the Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio and amended the Compliance and Borrowing Base Certificates reporting requirements.


The Loan Agreement contains a provision for our use of the Bank’s letters of credit. The Bank agrees to issue or obtain issuance of commercial or stand-by letters of credit provided that no letters of credit will have an expiry date later than August 15, 2020, and that the sum of the line of credit plus the letters of credit would not exceed the borrowing base in effect at the time. As of May 31, 2020, we had no letters of credit outstanding.


The Loan Agreement contains provisions that require us to maintain specified financial ratios; restricts transactions with related parties; prohibits mergers or consolidation; disallows additional debt; and limits the amount of investments, capital expenditures and leasing transactions we can make on a quarterly basis. Additionally, the Loan Agreement places limitations on the amount of dividends that may be distributed and the total value of stock that can be repurchased.  


On April 16, 2020, the Company entered into a loan with the Bank of approximately $1.4 million pursuant to the PPP under the CARES Act. The PPP Loan had a fixed interest rate of 1.00%, with principal and interest payments starting December 1, 2020 and a scheduled maturity date of May 1, 2022. The Company determined the PPP loan was no longer needed and repaid the loan in full, including interest accrued to date, on May 12, 2020.
