Item 1.01.              Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On March 27, 2009 P&F Industries, Inc. (the “Registrant”), and its subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”), Embassy Industries, Inc. (“Embassy”), Green Manufacturing, Inc. (“Green”), Countrywide Hardware, Inc. (“Countrywide”), Nationwide Industries, Inc. (“Nationwide”), Woodmark International, L.P. (“Woodmark”), Pacific Stair Products, Inc. (“Pacific”), WILP Holdings, Inc. (“WILP”), Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc. (“Hy-Tech”, and collectively with the Registrant, Florida Pneumatic, Embassy, Green, Countrywide, Nationwide, Woodmark, Pacific, WILP and Continental, the “Co-Borrowers”), Citibank, N.A. and HSBC Bank USA, National Association (collectively, the “Lenders”) and Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”), entered into an amendment (“Amendment No. 17”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2004, by and among the Co-Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, as previously amended (the “Credit Agreement”).  Amendment No. 17 amends the Credit Agreement to provide for second mortgages on real property owned by each of Florida Pneumatic and Countrywide as additional collateral under the Credit Agreement and a first mortgage on real property owned by Hy-Tech as additional collateral under the Credit Agreement.

 

On March 30, 2009, the Registrant, the Co-Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent entered into an amendment and waiver (“Amendment No. 18”) to the Credit Agreement.  Amendment No. 18 (i) extended the maturity date of the revolving loan commitment under the Credit Agreement from March 31, 2009 to March 30, 2010, (ii)  revised certain financial covenants and related definitions, (iii) waived compliance with certain financial covenants as of December 31, 2008 and (iv) restructured the Registrant’s debt under the Credit Agreement.  In connection with the restructuring of debt, Amendment No. 18 replaced the previously existing term loan notes which had an aggregate principal amount of $13,200,000 with new term loan notes (the “Additional Term Notes”) aggregating $7,116,000 (one payable to Citibank, N.A. in the principal amount of $4,625,400 and the other payable to HSBC Bank USA, National Association in the principal amount of $2,490,600).  The principal on the Additional Term Notes is payable in 36 consecutive monthly installments of $148,250, commencing on April 30, 2009, with the final payment on the maturity date to also include the outstanding unpaid principal amount.  The Registrant and the Co-Borrowers have the option to pay interest at a rate based on either the fluctuating prime rate of the Administrative Agent, LIBOR or a combination of the two rates. The Additional Term Notes mature on March 30, 2012.  Amendment No. 18 also replaced the previously existing revolving loan notes which provided for an aggregate principal amount of up to $18,000,000 with new revolving loan notes (the “Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Notes”) which provide for an aggregate principal amount of up to $22,000,000 (one payable to Citibank, N.A in the principal amount of $14,300,000 and the other payable to HSBC Bank USA, National Association, in the principal amount of $7,700,000).

 

The foregoing summaries of Amendment No. 17, Amendment No. 18, the Additional Term Notes and the Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Notes are qualified in their entirety by the terms and provisions of Amendment No. 17, Amendment No. 18, each of the Additional Term Notes and each of the Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Notes, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03.                Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Company

 

Reference is made to Item 1.01 above, which is hereby incorporated herein.

 

Item 5.02.                Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

The Board of Directors of the Registrant (the “Board”) is divided into three classes, each having a term of three years.  Effective March 26, 2009, Robert L. Dubofsky (‘Mr. Dubofsky”), a member of the Registrant’s Board, transferred from the class whose term of office expires at the 2011 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2011 class’) to the class whose term expires at the 2010 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2010 class”) in order to make the size of the classes more equal following the recent resignation of Robert M. Steinberg and death of Sidney Horowitz.   Mr. Dubofsky’s class change was achieved by the technical resignation from the 2011 class by Mr. Dubofsky and the contemporaneous election of Mr. Dubofsky by the Board to fill Mr. Steinberg’s vacancy in the 2010 class.

 

Item 5.03.                Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

 

Effective March 26, 2009, the Board amended (the “By-laws Amendment”) the Registrant’s By-laws, as amended (the “By-laws”). The By-laws Amendment provides that the Board shall consist of eight persons. The By-laws previously provided that the Board shall consist of ten persons. The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of amended Article III, Section 1 of the By-laws, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
