On August 31, 2006, Birner Dental Management Services, Inc. (the "Company") and KeyBank National Association ("KeyBank") entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. This amendment related to a $5 million five year fixed rate term loan (the "Loan"). In connection therewith, the Company executed a $5,000,000 Term Loan Note. The Company also executed a $7,000,000 Fourth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note relating to the Company's existing credit facility. The Fourth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note amended the previous note as necessary to accommodate the Loan. The Company and KeyBank also entered into a Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement. The Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement amended the security agreement as necessary to secure the Loan. The Loan is secured by the Company's management agreements. Although the above described loan agreements were entered into on August 31, 2006, the Company is not obligated to draw on the Loan and has not done so. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Loan to finance the purchase of shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to its recently announced tender offer. The Company does not intend to draw on the Loan if the tender offer is not consummated. The interest rate will be fixed at the time the loan is funded, if at all. The interest rate will be either, or a combination of, a fixed rate, KeyBank's Base Rate or LIBOR plus a LIBOR rate margin, at the Company's option. KeyBank's Base Rate computes interest at the higher of their "prime rate" or the Federal Funds Rate plus one-half percent (0.5%). The LIBOR option computes interest at the LIBOR rate as of the date such LIBOR Rate loan was made plus a LIBOR rate margin of 1.50%. The Company may prepay any fixed rate or Base Rate loan at any time and any LIBOR rate loan upon not less than three business days prior written notice given to KeyBank, but the Company will be responsible for any loss or cost incurred by KeyBank in liquidating or employing deposits required to fund or maintain the LIBOR rate loan. The Loan will amortize quarterly over five years. The Loan requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios on an ongoing basis. As of June 30, 2006, the Company was in compliance with these financial ratios. ITEM 9.01.
