ABL Facility

On March 26, 2015, Unifi, Inc. and its subsidiary, Unifi Manufacturing, Inc., entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as subsequently amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) for a $200,000 senior secured credit facility (the “ABL Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders.  The ABL Facility consists of a $100,000 revolving credit facility (the “ABL Revolver”) and a term loan that can be reset up to a maximum amount of $100,000, once per fiscal year, if certain conditions are met (the “ABL Term Loan”). Such principal increases occurred in November 2015 and November 2016 as discussed in further detail below. The ABL Facility has a maturity date of March 26, 2020.

The Amended Credit Agreement replaced a previous senior secured credit facility dated May 24, 2012 with a similar syndicate of lenders, which, after multiple amendments, would have matured on March 28, 2019 and consisted of a $100,000 revolving credit facility and a $90,000 term loan. As used herein, the terms “ABL Facility,” “ABL Revolver” and “ABL Term Loan” shall mean the senior secured credit facility, the revolving credit facility or the term loan, respectively, under the Amended Credit Agreement or the previous senior secured credit facility, as applicable.

The ABL Facility is secured by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all owned property and assets (together with all proceeds and products) of Unifi, Inc., Unifi Manufacturing, Inc. and certain subsidiary guarantors (the “Loan Parties”). It is also secured by a first-priority security interest in all (or 65% in the case of certain first-tier controlled foreign corporations, as required by the lenders) of the stock of (or other ownership interests in) each of the Loan Parties (other than UNIFI) and certain subsidiaries of the Loan Parties, together with all proceeds and products thereof.

If excess availability under the ABL Revolver falls below the defined Trigger Level, a financial covenant requiring the Loan Parties to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio on a monthly basis of at least 1.05 to 1.00 becomes effective. The Trigger Level as of June 25, 2017 was $24,375. In addition, the ABL Facility contains restrictions on particular payments and investments, including certain restrictions on the payment of dividends and share repurchases. Subject to specific provisions, the ABL Term Loan may be prepaid at par, in whole or in part, at any time before the maturity date, at UNIFI’s discretion.

ABL Facility borrowings bear interest at the London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin of 1.50% to 2.00%, or the Base Rate (as defined below) plus an applicable margin of 0.50% to 1.00%, with interest currently being paid on a monthly basis. The applicable margin is based on (i) the excess availability under the ABL Revolver and (ii) the consolidated leverage ratio, calculated as of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Base Rate means the greater of (a) the prime lending rate as publicly announced from time to time by Wells Fargo, (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% and (c) LIBOR plus 1.0%. UNIFI’s ability to borrow under the ABL Revolver is limited to a borrowing base equal to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory and is subject to certain conditions and limitations. There is also a monthly unused line fee under the ABL Revolver of 0.25%.

As of June 25, 2017, the excess availability under the ABL Revolver was $65,064. At June 25, 2017, the fixed charge coverage ratio was 0.84 to 1.0 and UNIFI had $400 of standby letters of credit, none of which had been drawn upon.  Management maintains the capability to quickly and easily improve the fixed charge coverage ratio utilizing existing cash resources.

On November 18, 2016, pursuant to the principal reset conditions of the Amended Credit Agreement, UNIFI, at its discretion, reset the ABL Term Loan principal balance to $100,000. In connection with the principal reset, the ABL Term Loan is subject to quarterly amortizing payments of $2,500.

Second Amendment

On November 19, 2015, UNIFI entered into the Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”). The Second Amendment increased the percentage applied to real estate valuations, on a one-time basis, from 60% to 75%, for purposes of calculating the ABL Term Loan collateral. Simultaneous to entering into the Second Amendment, UNIFI entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Term Note, thereby resetting the ABL Term Loan balance to $95,000.

Capital Lease Obligations

During fiscal 2017, UNIFI recorded capital leases with an aggregate present value of $14,070, inclusive of the reclassification activity described below in the subheading “—Construction Financing.”  The weighted average interest rate for these capital leases is 3.9%.

During fiscal 2016, UNIFI entered into capital leases with an aggregate present value of $4,154.

Construction Financing

During fiscal 2016, UNIFI entered into an agreement with a third-party lender that provided for construction-period financing for certain build-to-suit assets. UNIFI recorded project costs to construction in progress and the corresponding liability to construction financing (within long-term debt). As of June 26, 2016, the principal balance of $6,629 included $790 of cash received by UNIFI and $5,839 for construction in progress paid by the third-party lender.

During fiscal 2017, asset construction was completed and the project costs were reclassified from construction in progress to capital lease assets. The principal balance of $13,725 was reclassified to capital lease obligations and amortizes over a five-year period on a monthly basis through May 2022, with an interest rate of 3.8%.

Renewables’ Term Loan and Promissory Note

During the period that UNIFI held a controlling interest in Renewables, the joint venture borrowed $4,000 against a term loan supplement to a master loan agreement and delivered a promissory note for $135, all in efforts to expand operations and secure additional land. Such borrowings were outstanding at June 26, 2016.  As described in Note 4, “Sale of Renewables,” upon the sale of its 60% equity ownership interest in Renewables in December 2016, UNIFI deconsolidated the corresponding assets and liabilities, and, accordingly, the respective debt principal balances are appropriately excluded from UNIFI’s total long-term debt as of June 25, 2017.  UNIFI has no liability for such debt.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

Entering into the Amended Credit Agreement in fiscal 2015 generated substantially different terms for the ABL Term Loan and resulted in the replacement of an existing lender. Accordingly, in fiscal 2015, UNIFI recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,040 for the write-off of certain debt financing fees related to the previous credit agreement.
