WHEREAS, Borrowers have requested that Agent and Sole Lender amend certain provisions of the Loan Agreement and provide certain other accommodations to Borrowers;

 

WHEREAS, notwithstanding that Agent and Sole Lender are under no obligation to amend the Loan Agreement, Agent and Sole Lender are willing to make certain additional financial accommodations as requested by the Borrowers, such that Obligors, Agent and Sole Lender have agreed to amend the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents on the terms and subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, each Obligor is entering into this Amendment with the understanding and agreement that, except as specifically provided herein, none of Agent’s or any Lender’s rights or remedies as set forth in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are being waived or modified by the terms of this Amendment.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements and covenants herein contained and for the purposes of setting forth the terms and conditions of this Amendment, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

AGREEMENT

 

1.                                      Capitalized Terms.  Capitalized terms used herein which are defined in the Loan Agreement have the same meanings herein as therein, except to the extent such terms are amended hereby.

 

2.                                      Acknowledgements and Stipulations. In order to induce Agent and Sole Lender to enter into this Amendment, each Obligor acknowledges, stipulates and agrees that:

 

(a)                                 Recitals True and Correct.  Each of the Recitals contained at the beginning of this Amendment is true and correct;

 


 

(b)                                 Obligations Outstanding.

(c)                                  No Defense or Counterclaim.  All of the Loans and other Obligations are not subject to any defense, deduction, offset or counterclaim by Obligors to Agent or any Lenders (and, to the extent any Obligor had any such defense, deduction, offset or counterclaim on the date hereof, the same is hereby waived by each such Obligor in accordance with Section 9 below);

 

(d)                                 Loan Documents Binding and Enforceable.  The Loan Documents executed by Obligors are legal, valid and binding obligations enforceable against each Obligor in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally;

 

(e)                                  Liens Valid.  The Liens granted by Obligors to the Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Lenders, in the Collateral are valid and duly perfected, first-priority liens, subject only to any Permitted Encumbrances;

(a)                                 The definition of “Applicable Margin or Applicable Unused Line Fee Rate” is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

Applicable Margin or Applicable Unused Line Fee Rate: with respect to any Type of Loan, the margin set forth below, or with respect to the unused line fees payable under Section 3.2.1, the rate per annum set forth below, in each case, as determined for the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter:

Until Lender shall have received the Revolver Borrowing Base Certificates for each week through the week ending December 28, 2019, the Applicable Margin and the Applicable Unused Line Fee Rate shall be determined as if Level II were applicable (plus or minus, if applicable, 25 basis points in accordance with the following paragraph).  Thereafter, the Applicable Margin and the Applicable Unused Line Fee Rate shall be determined based upon Average Quarterly Availability for each Fiscal Quarter as determined by Agent based upon the Revolver Borrowing Base Certificates delivered pursuant to Section 8.1 for each week during such Fiscal Quarter, which determination shall be effective on the first day of the calendar month after receipt by Agent of the Revolver Borrowing Base Certificate for the last week in such Fiscal Quarter.  If any financial statement, Revolver Borrowing Base Certificate, Term Loan Borrowing Base Certificate or Compliance Certificate due in the preceding month has not been received, then, at the option of Agent or Required Lenders, the Applicable Margin and the Applicable Unused Line Fee Rate shall be determined as if Level II were applicable, from such day until the first day of the calendar month following actual receipt.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in the event that the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is at any time (regardless of whether a Financial Covenant Testing Period is in effect) less than 1.00 to 1.00, the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Revolver Loans and LIBOR Revolver Loans shall each be increased by 25 basis points from the amounts set forth in the table above; and (ii) in the event that the Leverage Ratio is at any time less than 3.75 to 1.00, the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Revolver Loans and LIBOR Revolver Loans shall each be reduced by 25 basis points from the amounts set forth in the table above; provided, that (x) the reductions described in clause (ii) of this sentence shall automatically cease to be in effect if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) if any calculation of Leverage Ratio or Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is at any time restated or otherwise revised or if the information set forth in any Compliance Certificate otherwise proves to be false or incorrect such that the Applicable Margin would have been higher than was otherwise in effect during any period, without constituting a waiver of any Default or Event of Default arising as a result thereof, interest due under this Agreement shall be immediately recalculated at such higher rate for any such applicable periods and shall be due and payable on demand.”

 

(b)                                 The definition of “Financial Covenant Trigger Amount” is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

Financial Covenant Trigger Amount:  (a) at any time through and including, January 15, 2020, $4,000,000; (b) at any time from January 16, 2020 through March 31, 2020, if (i) the Borrowers shall be in compliance with Section 10.1.14(3), $4,000,000, or (ii) if the Borrowers shall have failed to
