(“PNC”) The Company has a Loan Facility with PNC that has been amended many times during its term. Substantially all of its assets are pledged as collateral under the Loan Facility. The Company is required to maintain a lockbox account with PNC, into which substantially all of its cash receipts are paid. The Loan Facility provides for a $15,000,000 revolving loan and a term loan with a balance of $1,202,000 at March 31, 2019 (the “Term Loan”). The repayment terms of the Term Loan provide for monthly principal installments in the amount of $123,133, payable on the first business day of each month, with a final payment of any unpaid balance of principal and interest payable on the scheduled maturity date. The terms of the Loan Facility require, among other things, that the Company maintain a minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Facility) for specified periods. In addition, the Company is limited in the amount of Capital Expenditures it can make. The Company is also limited to the amount of dividends it can pay as defined in the Loan Facility. The Loan Facility has been amended many times during its term, most recently on May 30, 2018 (the “Sixteenth Amendment”), January 2, 2019 (the “Seventeenth Amendment”) and February 8, 2019 (the “Eighteenth Amendment”). The Sixteenth Amendment waived Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant violations for the periods ending September 30, 2017, December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018. The Sixteenth Amendment imposes minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) covenants of not less than (i) $75,000 for the three-month period ending March 31, 2018, (ii) $485,000 for the six-month period ending June 30, 2018, and (iii) $1,200,000 for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2018. The Company complied with these new covenants for the three-months ended March 31, 2018, the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 and the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018. In addition, the Company is prohibited from paying dividends to its stockholders and making capital expenditures above prescribed amounts. Under the terms of the Seventeenth Amendment, the revolving loan and the Term Loan bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Loan Agreement) plus four percent (4%). In addition to the amounts available as revolving loans secured by inventory and receivables pursuant to the formula set forth in the Loan Agreement, PNC has agreed to permit the revolving advances to exceed the formula amount by $1,000,000 as of December 31, 2018, provided that the Company reduce the “Out-of-Formula Loan” by $25,000 per week commencing April 1, 2019, with the unpaid balance payable in full on December 31, 2019. The indebtedness under the revolving loan and the Term Loan are classified with the current portion of notes and financing lease obligations. Both the revolving loan, inclusive of the Out-of Formula Loan, and the Term Loan mature on December 31, 2019. As a condition to its agreement to extend the maturity of the obligations due under the Loan Agreement (the “Obligations”) to December 31, 2019, the Company is obligated to pay PNC an extension fee of (i) $250,000 on the earlier of (a) the date the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full or (b) June 30, 2019, (ii) $125,000 on the earlier of (a) the date the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full or (b) December 31, 2019, which amount is deemed earned in full if the Obligations have not been satisfied as of July 1, 2019, (iii) $125,000 on the earlier of (a) the date the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full or (b) December 31, 2019, which amount is deemed earned in full if the Obligations have not been satisfied as of October 1, 2019 (iv) $500,000 on December 31, 2019, which amount is deemed earned in full if the Obligations have not been satisfied as of December 31, 2019. As a further condition to PNC’s agreement to extend the maturity of the Obligations, Michael and Robert Taglich purchased $2,000,000 principal amount of the Company’s Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes and arranged a financing giving purchasers a right to receive a pro rata portion of the AMK Revenue Stream Payments resulting in gross proceeds of $800,000, including $275,000 from Michael and Robert Taglich. The Eighteenth Amendment requires the Company to maintain a minimum EBITDA of not less than (i) $1,500,000 for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2018, (ii) $655,000 for the three-month period ending March 31, 2019, (iii) $1,860,000 for the six-month period ending June 30, 2019 and (iv) $3,110,000 for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2019. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the Company was in compliance with the minimum EBITDA covenant. As of March 31, 2019, the Company’s debt to PNC of $15,264,000 consisted of the revolving credit loan in the amount of $14,062,000 and the Term Loan in the amount of $1,202,000. The revolver balance was increased to include the Company’s negative general ledger balances of its controlled disbursement cash accounts. As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s debt to PNC of $15,615,000 consisted of the revolving credit note of $14,043,000 and the Term Loan of $1,572,000. Each day, the Company’s cash collections are swept directly by the bank to reduce the revolving loans and the Company then borrows according to a borrowing base formula. The Company’s receivables are payable directly into a lockbox controlled by PNC (subject to the terms of the Loan Facility). PNC may use some elements of subjective business judgment in determining whether a material adverse change has occurred in the Company’s condition, results of operations, assets, business, properties or prospects allowing it to demand repayment of the Loan Facility. Interest expense related to these credit facilities amounted to approximately $512,000 and $342,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
