NOTE 6. LONG-TERM DEBT

On September 3, 2020, the Company entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and certain banks (the “Fourth Amended Credit Facility”). The Fourth Amended Credit Facility amends and restates the Company’s $250.0 million credit facility, dated as of July 20, 2016 (the “Amended Credit Facility”). On September 29, 2020, the Company and its lender executed an Amendment to the Fourth Amended Credit Facility, which amends the definition of “Financial Covenant Start Date”.

The Fourth Amended Credit Facility extends the maturity date of the Amended Credit Facility from July 20, 2021 to September 3, 2023. In addition, the Fourth Amended Credit Facility increases the aggregate principal amount of the credit facilities to $270.0 million. The $270.0 million Fourth Amended Credit Facility consists of: $200 million term loan (“Term Loan Facility”) and $70 million revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”).

The Company is required to make quarterly principal payments under the Term Loan Facility on each Term Loan Installment Date, commencing on December 31, 2020, in an amount equal to (x) the percentage set forth opposite the applicable period during which such Term Loan Installment Date occurs (i.e., 1.25% for the period from December 31, 2020 to September 30, 2021, and 2.50% for the period from December 31, 2021 and thereafter) multiplied by (y) $200.0 million. Commencing with the delivery of the compliance certificate for fiscal year 2021, the Company may be required to prepay borrowings under the Fourth Amended Credit Facility using excess cash flows for each fiscal year, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio. The estimated amount of the mandatory principal payments due in the next twelve months is $10.0 million.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had an outstanding principal balance of $185.0 million under the Term Loan Facility, from which $10 million is expected to have a maturity date in next twelve months. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had no borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, therefore all $70.0 million remained available for borrowing.

Borrowings are secured by liens on substantially all of the Company’s real and personal property.

In addition to other customary covenants for a facility of this nature, as of September 30, 2020, the Company is required to maintain a Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Fourth Amended Credit Facility) of no more than 4.75:1 and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Fourth Amended Credit Facility) of at least 1.15:1. As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio were 2.2:1 and 9.1:1.

The Fourth Amended Credit Facility added a new definition, “Operational Liquidity”, to the Amended Credit Facility. Operational Liquidity as defined is, as of any date of determination, the amount by which (a) (i) the Unused Revolving Commitment as of such date, plus (ii) cash (including cage cash) as of such date exceeds (b) (i) $24,000,000 minus (ii) any retainage costs with respect to the expansion project and any settlement or judgment under the PCL Litigation paid in cash; provided that from and after the expansion project completion date, the receipt of a final certificate of occupancy (or its local equivalent) for the expansion project and the final resolution or disposition of the PCL Litigation, the amount in this clause (b) shall be deemed to be zero. The Borrowers shall not permit Operational Liquidity to be less than $25,000,000 at any time. In addition, any borrowing under the Amended Credit Facility, greater than $51,000,000 shall be used solely to pay retainage costs with respect to the Expansion Project and any settlement or judgment under the PCL Litigation. As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s Operational Liquidity were $76.5 million.

The interest rate under the Amended Credit Facility is LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.75% to 3.25%, or a base rate (as defined in the Fourth Amended Credit Facility) plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to 2.25%, or the Prime Rate. The applicable margins vary depending on Company’s leverage ratio. Commitment fees are equal to the daily average unused revolving commitment multiplied by the commitment fee percentage, ranging from 0.35% to 0.575%, based on our leverage ratio.

On the terms and subject to some conditions, the Company may, at any time before the Maturity Date, request an increase of Revolving Credit Facility, provided that each such increase is equal to $15.0 million or an integral multiple of $1.0 million in excess and, after giving effect to the requested increase, the aggregate amount of the increases in the total revolving loan commitment shall not exceed $75.0 million.

The Company may prepay borrowings under the Fourth Amended Credit Facility revolving loan without penalty (subject to certain conditions and certain charges applicable to the prepayment of LIBOR borrowings prior to the end of the applicable interest period). Once reduced or cancelled, the Revolving Credit Facility may not be increased or reinstated without the prior written consent of all lenders.

The Company believes that the $4.0 million cash in its interest-bearing money market fund and the $70.0 million available under its Amended Credit Facility as of September 30, 2020 will be sufficient to support its current operations, meet its debt obligations and fulfill its capital expenditure plans for the twelve months from filing of Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020; however, the Company is surrounded by uncertainty about COVID-19 and the reopening of its operations, as well as financial, economic, competitive, regulatory, and other factors, many of which are beyond its control. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow in the upcoming months or if its cash needs exceed the Company’s borrowing capacity under the Fourth Amended Credit Facility, it could be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as reducing, delaying or eliminating planned capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring debt or issuing additional equity.
