OTHER EVENTS. DHB Industries, Inc. (the "Company") has entered into a second amendment (the "Amendment"), dated as of February 17, 2003, to that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of September 24, 2001 (the "Loan Agreement") (previously filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2001, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2001), by and among the Company, LaSalle Business Credit, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (successor by merger to LaSalle Business Credit, Inc., a Delaware corporation) ("LaSalle"), and the Company's subsidiaries, Protective Apparel Corporation of America ("PACA"), Point Blank Body Armor, Inc. ("Point Blank") and NDL Products, Inc. ("NDL", and together with PACA and Point Blank, the "Borrowers"). The Company anticipates that the Amendment will assist the Company in meeting increased short-term working capital requirements. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, the maximum amount of revolving credit advances which may be provided by LaSalle to the Borrowers has been increased from $25,000,000, as previously provided in the Loan Agreement, to $35,000,000. This increased amount will decrease to $30,000,000 on September 1, 2003 and to $25,000,000 on December 1, 2003. In connection with the Amendment, the Borrowers have agreed to pay LaSalle an amendment fee in the amount of $25,000. In the event the Borrowers terminate the Loan Agreement and prepay all of their liabilities thereunder on or before February 28, 2004, the Borrowers have agreed to pay to LaSalle a prepayment fee of 1% of the Maximum Revolving Loan Limit (as that term is defined in the Loan Agreement) in effect at that time. Further pursuant to the Amendment, the minimum collection percentage during any sixty-day period to avoid a "Triggering Event" (as that term is defined in the Amendment) has been increased from 70% to 90%. The Amendment, including the availability of the increase in the revolving credit facility, became effective on February 25, 2003. The foregoing description of certain provisions of the Amendment and the Loan Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendment and the Loan Agreement, respectively filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto, and as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2001, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2001, both of which are incorporated herein by reference.
