Item 1.01 |
Entry
into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
On June 15, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries
entered into a first amendment (the “Amendment”) to its existing
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, dated as of February 5, 2021
(the “Existing Loan Agreement”), with Toronto Dominion (Texas) LLC
as administrative agent and certain lenders signatory thereto.
The Amendment provides for the following changes to the Existing
Loan Agreement: (i) the revolving credit facility has been
increased to an aggregate principal amount of up to $125 million;
and (ii) the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) has replaced
the LIBOR interest rate benchmark for all loans outstanding under
the Existing Loan Agreement, as amended, provided that any LIBOR
loans outstanding (“Existing LIBOR Loans”) as of the Amendment date
shall continue to the end of the applicable interest period for
such Existing LIBOR Loans and the provisions of the Existing Loan
Agreement applicable thereto shall continue and remain in effect
until the end of the applicable interest period for such Existing
LIBOR Loans, after which such provisions shall have no further
force or effect. Outstanding loans under the Existing Loan
Agreement (including Existing LIBOR Loans for which the applicable
interest period has ended), as amended, will bear interest at a per
annum rate elected by the borrower that is equal to (i) term SOFR
plus 0.10%, 0.15% or 0.25% in case of, respectively, a one-month,
two-month or three-month interest period (“Adjusted Term SOFR”) or
(ii) an alternate base rate (which is equal to the greatest of the
prime rate, the Federal Funds effective rate plus 0.50%, and
one-month Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.0%), in each case plus the
applicable margin.
Except as stated above, the Amendment does not result in any other
substantive changes to the Existing Loan Agreement, including
without limitation changes in the credit facilities, interest rate
margin applicable to the loans, guarantees, collateral, prepayment
requirements, covenants, representations and warranties or events
of default under the Existing Loan Agreement.
The foregoing summary of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is attached
as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
