Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On May 23, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), Creative Realities, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries, Reflect Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Reflect”), and Allure Global Solutions, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Allure,” and together with the Company and Reflect, collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with First Merchants Bank, an Indiana state bank (the “Bank”). The Credit Agreement provides Borrowers with a $22.1 million secured revolving credit facility, with an uncommitted accordion feature that provides for additional borrowing capacity of up to $5 million, subject to the Bank’s approval and other customary terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement.
 
On the Closing Date, the Company borrowed approximately $13.9 million under the revolving credit facility to repay all obligations owing to its prior lender, Slipstream Communications, LLC, pay a $150,000 commitment fee, and pay other transaction expenses.
 
The Borrowers may use the proceeds of the revolving credit facility in the future for working capital, general corporate purposes, and any contingent consideration payments to former stockholders of Reflect in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Reflect in 2022 (the “Contingent Consideration Payments”).
 
The advance rate under the revolving credit facility is 85% of the net orderly liquidation value (“NOLV”) of certain subscription-as-a-service (SaaS) contracts of the Borrowers, less a $4 million reserve (subject to a reduction in the Bank’s sole discretion) that applies until the Contingent Consideration Payments have been paid in full. The Bank may require appraisals on a semiannual basis to calculate the NOLV, and upon and during any Events of Default or Unmatured Events of Default, each as defined in the Credit Agreement.
 
The revolving credit facility matures on May 23, 2027, subject to any earlier default under the Credit Agreement (the “Maturity Date”). The revolving credit facility accrues interest at a floating rate equal to the 1-month Term SOFR, plus 0.11%, plus a floating margin ranging from 2.00% to 3.5% that adjusts quarterly, depending upon the Borrowers’ Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The floating margin is determined as follows:
 
Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio     Floating Margin
< 1.00 to 1.00
    2.00%  
≥ 1.00 to 1.00 but < 2.00 to 1.00
    2.50%  
≥ 2.00 to 1.00 but < 3.00 to 1.00
    3.00%  
≥ 3.00 to 1.00
    3.50%  
 
The revolving credit facility is fully secured by all assets of the Borrowers pursuant to a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), and guaranteed by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Creative Realities Canada, Inc., an Ontario corporation (the “Guarantor”), pursuant to a Guaranty. The Guarantor also pledged all of its assets to the Bank pursuant to a Security Agreement (the “Guarantor Security Agreement”) to secure the Guarantor’s obligations under the Guaranty.
 
 

 
The Credit Agreement requires the Borrowers and Guarantor to comply with certain financial covenants on a quarterly basis related to their collective Debt Service Coverage Ratio and Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (each as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement includes certain restrictive covenants and, among other things and subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, limits the Borrowers’ ability to: (i) make any distributions if any default has occurred or will result from such distribution, (ii) enter into agreements that create liens other than liens securing the new revolving credit facility and related documents, and certain other permitted liens, (iii) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, (iv) engage in liquidations, mergers or amalgamations, (v) acquire assets or form or acquire subsidiaries, and (vi) engage in certain transactions with affiliates. The Credit Agreement also contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default.
 
In the ordinary course of its business, Bank has performed and may continue to perform commercial banking and financial services for the Borrowers for which they have received and will continue to receive customary fees and expenses.
