| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On September 18, 2015, Regional Management Corp. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks comprised of Bank of America, N.A., BMO Harris Financing, First Tennessee Bank National Association, Capital One, N.A., Texas Capital Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and Capital Bank, N.A., and Bank of America, N.A. as Agent. The Loan Agreement provides for a senior revolving credit facility of up to $538.0 million, with a borrowing base of up to 85% of secured eligible finance receivables and up to 70% of unsecured eligible finance receivables, in each case, subject to adjustment at certain credit quality levels. The Loan Agreement has an accordion provision that allows for the expansion of the senior revolving credit facility to up to $600.0 million. Borrowings under the facility bear interest, payable monthly, at rates equal to LIBOR of a maturity the Company elects between one, two, three, four and six months, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%, plus a margin of 3.00%. Alternatively, the Company may pay interest at a rate based on the prime rate plus a margin of 2.00%. The Company also pays an unused line fee of 0.50% per annum, payable monthly. This fee decreases to 0.375% when the average outstanding balance exceeds $375.0 million. The senior revolving credit facility is collateralized by certain of the Company’s assets, including substantially all of its finance receivables and equity interests of substantially all of its subsidiaries, and matures on September 18, 2018.
The Loan Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants, including maintenance of specified interest coverage and debt ratios, restrictions on distributions, limitations on other indebtedness, maintenance of a minimum allowance for credit losses, and certain other restrictions. The Loan Agreement contains customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the lenders holding more than 66-2/3% of the outstanding amount of the commitments and advances under the senior revolving credit facility may accelerate amounts due under the Loan Agreement (except in the case of a bankruptcy or insolvency event of default, in which case such amounts shall automatically become due and payable).
For a complete description of the terms of the Loan Agreement, see Exhibit 10.1 hereto. The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreement, which is incorporated by reference herein.
Some of the lenders under the Loan Agreement (and their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) have in the past provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking, underwriting, lending, commercial banking, trust and other advisory services to the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. These parties have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation from the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates for such services.
On September 21, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing the Loan Agreement. A copy of this press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
