10. The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) effective November 18, 2011. The Company entered into the Tenth Amendment to Credit Agreement effective March 22, 2019. The Company had previously entered into nine separate amendments to the Credit Agreement. Cumulatively, the amendments were entered into by the Company to, among other things, (i) modify certain of the financial covenants, (ii) adjust the amount of the Revolving Commitment, (iii) terminate the Term Loan Commitment upon the repayment in full of the outstanding principal balance (and accrued interest thereon) of the Term Loan, (iv) modify the Borrowing Base calculation to provide for borrowing availability in respect of new Capital Expenditures, (v) decrease the interest rates on the Revolving Loans, (vi) extend the maturity date and (vii) decrease the Letter of Credit fee rate. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, inventories, machinery, equipment, vehicles, certain real estate and the common stock of all of the Company’s subsidiaries. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest based on a London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or prime rate based option. The Company was not in complicance with the Fixed Coverage Charge Ratio as of June 29, 2019. The lender has provided a waiver of the covenant violation for the period ended June 29, 2019. The Company and the lender will work to address terms of the existing loan agreement prior to the end of the third quarter of 2019.

The Credit Agreement either limits or requires prior approval by the lender of additional borrowings, acquisition of stock of other companies, purchase of treasury shares and payment of cash dividends. Payment of accrued interest is due monthly or at the end of the applicable LIBOR period.

The Credit Agreement as amended provides for the following:

The Revolving Commitment is $20,000,000.

Borrowings under the Revolving Commitment are limited to (a) 80% of eligible accounts receivable, (b) the lesser of 50% of eligible inventories and $8,500,000 plus (c) 80% of new qualifying Capital Expenditures not to exceed $5,500,000 in any fiscal year (excluding the aggregate amount of any Capital Expenditures financed with the proceeds of a Revolving Line Advance).

The Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is not permitted to be below 1.06 to 1.0 for each trailing twelve month period measured at the end of each Fiscal Quarter.

The maturity date of the credit facility is May 1, 2020.

Interest rate pricing for the revolving credit facility is currently LIBOR plus 2.25% or the prime rate.

Definitions under the Credit Agreement as amended are as follows:

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as, for any computation period, the ratio of (a) the sum for such period of (i) EBITDA, as defined, minus (ii) the sum of income taxes paid in cash, the amount expended related to the development of the mining property discussed in Note 12 and all unfinanced capital expenditures to (b) the sum for such period of interest expense related to the Credit Agreement.

EBITDA means for any Computation Period (or another time period to the extent expressly provided for in the Credit Agreement) the sum of the following with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries each as determined in accordance with GAAP: (a) Consolidated Net Income, plus (b) federal, state and other income taxes deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (c) Interest Expense deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (d) depreciation, depletion and amortization expense deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (e) non-recurring fees and costs paid by the Company in respect of the following: (i) fees and due diligence costs associated with the Company’s permitted acquisitions; (ii) legal fees and costs associated with the Valco trial preparation; (iii) executive recruitment fees for the Company’s new Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer; and (iv) additional fees and costs associated with the exploration of the Company’s Hitch Rack Ranch facility in Colorado Springs, Colorado to determine the suitability for mining and the pursuit of mining permits, plus (f) any other non-cash charges and any extraordinary charges deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, including any asset impairment charges (including write downs of goodwill), minus (g) any gains from Asset Dispositions, any extraordinary gains and any gains from discontinued operations included in the determination of Consolidated Net Income.

Outstanding funded revolving debt was $300,000 as of June 29, 2019 compared to $2,200,000 as of December 29, 2018. The highest balance outstanding during the first six months of 2019 and 2018 was $2,200,000 and $9,800,000, respectively. Average outstanding funded debt was $407,000 and $5,779,000 for the first six months of 2019 and 2018, respectively. At June 29, 2019, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling

$4,745,000. At all times since the inception of the Credit Agreement, the Company has had sufficient qualifying and eligible assets such that the available borrowing capacity exceeded the cash needs of the Company and this situation is expected to continue for the foreseeable future.

The Company believes that its existing cash balance, anticipated cash flow from operations and borrowings available under the Credit Agreement will be sufficient to cover expected cash needs, including planned capital expenditures, for the next twelve months. The Company expects to be in compliance with all debt covenants, as amended, throughout the facility’s remaining term.
