Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 9, 2022, Air T, Inc. (“Company”), Jet Yard, LLC and Minnesota Bank & Trust (“MBT”) entered into Amendment No. 1 to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Amendment”) and a related Overline Note (“Overline Note”) in the original principal amount of $5,000,000. The Amendment and Note memorialize an increase to the amount that may be drawn by the Company on the MBT revolving credit agreement from $17 million to $22 million. The total amount of borrowings under the facility as revised is now the Company’s calculated borrowing base or $22 million. The borrowing base calculation methodology remains unchanged.
The interest rate on borrowings under the facility that are less than $17 million remains at the greater of 2.50% or Prime minus 1%. The interest rate applicable to borrowings under the facility that exceed $17 million is the greater of 2.50% or Prime plus 0.5%. The commitment fee on unused borrowings below $17 million remains at 0.11%. The commitment fee on unused borrowings above $17 million is 0.20%. The Amendment also includes an additional covenant to the credit agreement, namely the requirement that the Company provide inventory appraisals for AirCo, AirCo Services and Worthington to MBT twice a year.
The Overline loan and commitment mature on the earlier of March 31, 2023 or the date on which the Company receives all funds from the Company’s Employee Retention Credit application (estimated at approximately $9.1 million) filed on or about January 24, 2022 plus the full receipt of the Company’s carryback tax refund for the year (estimated at approximately $2.6 million) filed on or about August 19, 2021. Both were applied for under different components of the CARES Act. It is not possible to estimate when, or if, these funds may be received.
Each of the Company subsidiaries that has guaranteed the MBT revolving facility executed a guaranty acknowledgment in which they agreed to guaranty the Overline Loan and acknowledged, among other things, that the Overline Loan would not impair the lenders rights under the previously executed guaranty or security agreement.
The foregoing summary of the terms of the Amendment and the Overline Loan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, the form of Overline Note and the form of Guarantee Acknowledgment filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 filed herewith, which are incorporated herein by reference.
