Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 12, 2019, Sequential Brands Group, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (“Sequential” or the “Company”)  amended its Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended KKR/FS Credit Agreement”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders party thereto.    Pursuant to the Amended KKR/FS Credit Agreement,  no mandatory amortization payments are required until September 30, 2020.  Thereafter, the loans under the Amended KKR/FS Credit Agreement will be subject to quarterly amortization payments of $1.0 million.    Pursuant to the Amended KKR/FS Credit Agreement,  no payment with proceeds of any consolidated excess cash flow will be required to be made prior to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020.  The Amended KKR/FS Credit Agreement modifies the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the agreement) by permitting additional addbacks and specifying the EBITDA amounts for the quarters ended September 30, 2018, December 31, 2018, March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019.  The Amended KKR/FS Credit Agreement allows for the netting of up to $5 million in cash of the Company and its subsidiaries for purposes of calculating the leverage ratio covenants.  The Amended KKR/FS Credit Agreement reduces the maximum amount of new indebtedness that is allowed to be borrowed under the Bank of America Revolving Credit Facility to $30 million.    

 

The Second and Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreements are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 and are incorporated herein by reference.  The foregoing description of the Amended KKR/FS Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full agreement attached hereto.

-4-

Amendment Effective Date) in an amount not to exceed $30,000,000 and (y) any Permitted Refinancing (which may be in form of Revolving Credit Extensions or other forms of Indebtedness under the BoA Credit Agreement that are permitted hereunder and under the Intercreditor Agreement) of Indebtedness in respect of the BoA Facility outstanding as of the Third Amendment Effective Date (clause (x) and (y) collectively referred to as the “Third Amendment Permitted Debt Basket”) and (B) any Indebtedness in respect of the BoA Facility shall not have an earlier maturity date than the Maturity Date or a Weighted Average Life to Maturity shorter than that of the BoA Facility in effect on the First Amendment Effective Date and (ii) any other Indebtedness outstanding on the Third A&R Effective Date and listed on Schedule 7.03 hereto and, in the case of the foregoing clause (ii), any Permitted Refinancing thereof.”

g.         Section 2.04(d) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following to the end thereof:

“Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payment under this Section 2.04(d) shall be required with respect to Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2019.”

i.          Section 2.08(b) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“(b)      Early Termination Fee.  In the event that the Borrower prepays or repays all or part of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.04 (unless such prepayment or repayment is made pursuant to Section 2.04(b),  2.04(c),  2.04(d) (in each case, regardless of whether any prepayment or repayment is required to be made pursuant to Section 2.04 of the BoA Credit Agreement (as in effect on the Third Amendment Effective Date) at such time from the applicable proceeds) or 2.06(a)) or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 8.02, then the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a fee (the “Early Termination Fee”) equal to (i) if such prepayment or repayment occurs on or after the Third Amendment Effective Date and prior to the twelfth (12th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date, three percent (3%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans prepaid or repaid at such time, (ii) if such prepayment or repayment occurs on or after the twelfth (12th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date and prior to the twenty-fourth

-5-

(24th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date, two percent (2%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans prepaid or repaid at such time or (iii) if such prepayment or repayment occurs on or after the twenty-fourth (24th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date and prior to the thirty-sixth (36th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date, one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans prepaid or repaid at such time; provided, that if such prepayment or repayment occurs on or after the thirty-sixth (36th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date, no Early Termination Fee shall be due and payable; provided further, that if such prepayment or repayment is made in connection with or immediately following a Change of Control or Transformative Acquisition, the Early Termination Fee shall instead be (i) if such prepayment or repayment occurs on or after the Third Amendment Effective Date and prior to the twelfth (12th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date, two percent (2%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans prepaid or repaid at such time, (ii) if such prepayment or repayment occurs on or after the twelfth (12th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date and prior to the twenty-fourth (24th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date, one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans prepaid or repaid at such time or (iii) if such prepayment or repayment occurs on or after the twenty-fourth (24th) month anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date, no Early Termination Fee shall be due and payable.  All parties to this Agreement agree and acknowledge that the Lenders will have suffered damages on account of the prepayment of the Loans during such timeframe set forth in this Section 2.08(b) and that, in view of the difficulty in ascertaining the amount of such damages, the Early Termination Fee constitutes reasonable compensation and liquidated damages to compensate the Lenders on account thereof.”

 

j.          Section 7.03(a) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the proviso that follows immediately after “Permitted Indebtedness” with the following:

“; provided, however, that from and after the Third Amendment Effective Date the only Permitted Indebtedness that may be incurred by the Borrower shall be pursuant to clause (a) thereof but subject to Third Amendment Permitted Debt Basket.”
