The loan commitment for the Credit Agreement between The Dixie Group, Inc. and Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, the Agent, dated as of September 13, 2011 and most recently amended by the Fourteenth Amendment dated as of May 14, 2020, was reduced from $120,000 to $100,000 and the availability limitation related to the fixed coverage ratio was reduced from $15,000 to $12,500 . The fourteenth amendment included a covenant requiring the Company to pursue and consummate a permitted fixed asset loan. By letter agreement dated July 13, 2020, the Company was given until August 31, 2020 to obtain the additional financing. The borrowing base is currently equal to specified percentages of the Company's eligible accounts receivable, inventories, fixed assets and real property less reserves established, from time to time, by the administrative agent under the facility. The revolving credit facility matures on September 23, 2021. The revolving credit facility is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Company's assets. At the Company's election, advances of the revolving credit facility bear interest at annual rates equal to either (a) LIBOR for 1, 2 or 3 month periods, as selected by the Company, plus an applicable margin of 3.25% , or (b) the higher of the prime rate, the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% , or a daily LIBOR rate plus 1.00% , plus an applicable margin of 2.25% . The Company’s applicable margin has been amended to no longer be subject to average daily excess availability. The Company pays an unused line fee on the average amount by which the aggregate commitments exceed utilization of the revolving credit facility equal to 0.375% per annum. The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility was 7.39% at June 27, 2020 and 4.79% at December 28, 2019, respectively. The revolving credit facility includes certain affirmative and negative covenants that impose restrictions on the Company's financial and business operations. The revolving credit facility restricts the Company's borrowing availability if its fixed charge coverage ratio is less than 1.1 to 1.0. During any period that the fixed charge coverage ratio is less than 1.1 to 1.0, the Company's borrowing availability is reduced by $12,500 . Effective May 14, 2020, as part of the amendment, the Company’s availability block has been amended to $3,500 . The availability block will increase to $6,500 after August 31, 2020. As of June 27, 2020, the unused borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility was $29,012 ; however, since the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio was less than 1.1 to 1.0, the unused availability accessible by the Company was $16,512 (the amount above $12,500 ) at June 27, 2020. Availability under the credit agreement will vary based on seasonal business factors and periodic changes to the qualified asset base, which consists of accounts receivable, inventories and fixed assets. Notes Payable - Buildings On November 7, 2014, the Company entered into a ten-year $8,330 note payable to purchase a previously leased distribution center in Adairsville, Georgia. The note payable is scheduled to mature on November 7, 2024 and is secured by the distribution center. The note payable bears interest at a variable rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 2.0% and is payable in equal monthly installments of principal of $35 , plus interest calculated on the declining balance of the note, with a final payment of $4,269 due on maturity. In addition, the Company entered into an interest rate swap with an amortizing notional amount effective November 7, 2014 which effectively fixes the interest rate at 4.50% . Notes Payable - Equipment and Other The Company's equipment financing notes have terms ranging from 1 to 7 years, bear interest ranging from 1.60% to 7.00% and are due in monthly installments through their maturity dates. The Company's equipment financing notes are secured by the specific equipment financed and do not contain any financial covenants. Finance Lease - Buildings On January 14, 2019, the Company, entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”) with Saraland Industrial, LLC, an Alabama limited liability company (the “Purchaser”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company sold its Saraland facility, and approximately 17.12 acres of surrounding property located in Saraland, Alabama (the “Property”) to the Purchaser for a purchase price of $11,500 . Concurrent with the sale of the Property, the Company and the Purchaser entered into a twenty -year lease agreement (the “Lease Agreement”), whereby the Company will lease back the Property at an annual rental rate of $977 , subject to annual rent increases of 1.25% . Under the Lease Agreement, the Company has two (2) consecutive options to extend the term of the Lease by ten years for each such option. This transaction was recorded as a failed sale and leaseback. The Company recorded a liability for the amounts received, will continue to depreciate the asset, and has imputed an interest rate so that the net carrying amount of the financial liability and remaining assets will be zero at the end of the lease term. Concurrently with the sale, the Company paid off the approximately $5,000 mortgage on the property to First Tennessee Bank National Association and terminated the related fixed interest rate swap agreement. Finance Lease Obligations The Company's finance lease obligations have terms ranging from 3 to 7 years and are due in monthly or quarterly installments through their maturity dates. The Company's finance lease obligations are secured by the specific equipment leased. See Note 10 for further discussion of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's finance lease obligations. |
