B.    Borrower has requested and Bank has agreed to amend the terms of the Loan Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

 

C.    Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings set forth therefor in the Loan Agreement.

 

NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

“Contract Period means September 19, 2027.”

 

“Maximum Term Loan Amount means $50,500,000.”

 

“Term Loan Maturity Date means September 19, 2027.”

 

2.       Letters of Credit. The following shall be added to the Loan Agreement at the end of Section 2, as follows:

 

2.       Letters of Credit.

 

 

 

 

2.1    General. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, Bank agrees to issue from time to time under the Revolving Credit Facility until the expiration of the Contract Period, upon the written request of Borrower, standby letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of Borrower. Such Letters of Credit shall be in form and content reasonably acceptable to Bank.

 

2.2    Conditions to Issuance. Bank shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

 

(a)    issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate the terms of any contract, agreement, or other document binding upon Bank or Borrower;

 

(b)    any order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or other governmental authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain issuance of the Letter of Credit;

 

(c)    any law, rule, regulation or directive shall prohibit issuance of the Letter of Credit or result in any liability of Bank as a result of such issuance not otherwise contemplated under the Agreement; or

 

(d)    Bank shall not have received the required issuance fee as set forth in Section 2.12.

 

2.3    Tenor. Each Letter of Credit shall have a term not to exceed the earlier to occur of: (a) twelve (12) months, or (b) twelve (12) months beyond the expiration date of the Contract Period.

 

2.4    Sublimits. Bank shall have no obligation (a) to issue any Letter of Credit, if the aggregate outstanding undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit would exceed $3,000,000 (the “Letter of Credit Sublimit”); (b) to issue any Letter of Credit, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred; or (c) to issue any Letter of Credit if the Revolving Credit Facility usage plus the amount of such new Letter of Credit to be issued exceeds the Maximum Revolving Credit Facility Amount.

 

2.5    Procedure and Determination. Each request for issuance of a Letter of Credit must be received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested issuance and shall be accompanied by a duly executed letter of credit application in the form reasonably required by Bank. Borrower will execute and deliver to Bank such other documents and agreements as may be reasonably required by Bank in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit.

 

2.6    Reduction of Availability. Availability under the Revolving Credit Facility will be reduced by the total outstanding undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit.

 

2.7    Draws. If Bank receives a request for a draw under any Letter of Credit, Borrower agrees to reimburse Bank on the immediately succeeding Business Day after the day upon which Bank has honored such draw request, the amount of such draw request (the “Draw Amount”) in immediately available funds. Until Bank receives the Draw Amount in immediately available funds, the amount advanced by Bank to pay such draw shall be deemed to be a SOFR Rate Loan under the Revolving Credit Facility.

2.8    Cash Collateral. In the event that the Revolving Credit Facility is terminated for any reason or an Event of Default occurs which is continuing after the expiration of all available notice and cure periods, Borrower agrees to deposit with Bank immediately available funds in an amount equal to 105% of the outstanding undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit. Such funds and any proceeds of Collateral or other payments received by Bank with respect to the Obligations owed by Borrower after any such Event of Default, may be held by Bank as cash collateral for the Obligations owed by Borrower, including without limitation, the Obligations owed by Borrower to Bank related to the Letters of Credit.

 

2.9    Indemnification. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold Bank harmless from any loss, cost, expense, or liability, including payments made by Bank, expenses, and attorney’s fees incurred by Bank arising out of or in connection with any Letter of Credit, provided that, Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify Bank for any loss, cost, expense or liability resulting from Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Borrower understands and agree that Bank shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto.

 

2.10   Obligations Irrevocable. The obligations of Borrower to make payments to Bank of each Draw Amount shall be irrevocable and shall not be subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

 

(a)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any documents collateral to any Letter of Credit, the Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(c)    any draft, certificate, or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid, or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

 

(d)    the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents;

 

(e)    the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default;

 

-3-

(g)    payment by Bank to the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit against presentation of documents which do not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to such Letter of Credit;

 

(h)    any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of Bank to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred upon Bank under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, any of the Letters of Credit or any documents collateral thereto or any other acts or omissions on the part of Bank; or

 

(i)    any other event or circumstance that would, in the absence of this Section, result in the release or discharge by operation of law or otherwise of any Borrower, or any Person from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained herein.

 

No setoff, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any obligation or any defense of any kind or nature which any Borrower has or may have against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit shall be available hereunder to any Borrower against Bank.

 

2.11    Risk Under Letters of Credit.

 

(a)    In the administration and handling of Letters of Credit and any security therefor, or any documents or instruments given in connection therewith, Bank shall have the sole right, in its discretion, to take or refrain from taking any and all actions under or upon the Letters of Credit.

 

(b)    Subject to other terms and conditions of the Agreement, Bank shall issue the Letters of Credit and shall hold the documents related thereto in its own name and shall make all collections thereunder and otherwise administer the Letters of Credit in accordance with Bank’s regularly established practices and procedures and Bank will have no further obligation with respect thereto. In the administration of Letters of Credit, Bank shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted in good faith reliance on the advice of counsel, accountants, appraisers or other experts selected by Bank and Bank may rely upon any notice, communication, certificate or other statement from any Borrower, beneficiaries of Letters of Credit, or any other Person which Bank believes to be authentic.

 

(c)    In connection with the issuance and administration of Letters of Credit and the assignments hereunder, Bank makes no representation and shall have no responsibility with respect to (i) the obligations of any Borrower or any other Person or the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any document or instrument given in connection therewith, or the taking of any action with respect to same, (ii) the financial condition of, any representations made by, or any act or omission of, any Borrower or any other Person, or (iii) any failure or delay in exercising any rights or powers possessed by Bank in its capacity as issuer of Letters of Credit in the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

-4-

 

 

2.12    Letter of Credit Fees. For each issuance or renewal of a Letter of Credit, Borrower agrees to pay to Bank an issuance or renewal fee in an amount equal to one percent (1%) per annum of the face amount of such Letter of Credit, payable coincident with and as a condition of the issuance or renewal. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay to Bank such other fees and charges in connection with the issuance, renewal, amendment, negotiation or cancellation of Letters of Credit as may be customarily charged by Bank. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the continuation thereof after the expiration of all available notice and cured periods, at Bank’s option, the fees provided for in this Section shall be increased by the Default Rate. All of such fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days.

 

3.        Term Loan. Section 3.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“3.1   Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, Bank agrees to extend to Borrower a non-revolving delayed draw term loan to finance Permitted Acquisitions, pursuant to which during the twenty-four (24) months following September 20, 2022, Bank agrees to extend to Borrower Advances in an aggregate amount not to exceed Fifty Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($50,500,000) (the “Term Loan”).”

 

4.        Term Notes. Section 3.2 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“3.2    Term Notes. Borrower’s obligation to repay the Term Loan shall be further evidenced by individual promissory notes executed and delivered by Borrower to Bank in the aggregate face amount not to exceed Fifty Million Five Hundred Dollars ($50,500,000) (each a “Term Note”) which shall be substantially in the form and content set forth in Exhibit B.”

 

5.       Advances under Term Loan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 7.4 of the Loan Agreement, Borrower shall pay the principal balance of all subsequent Advances under the Term Loan in equal and consecutive monthly installments of principal in an amount sufficient to amortize the outstanding balance of such Term Loan (on a straight line amortization basis) commencing on the first day of the month following the date of such Advance under the Term Loan, with one final payment of the remaining principal balance plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the Term Loan Maturity Date. For the avoidance of doubt, each subsequent Advance shall be co-terminus.

 

6.        Third Amended and Restated Term Note. Coincident with the execution of this Amendment, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Bank a Third Amended and Restated Delayed Draw Term Note 1A in the original principal amount of $30,000,000 (“Term Note 1A”). Term Note 1A shall be in form and content acceptable to Bank and the Term Note 1A shall re-evidence and increase the existing indebtedness of Borrower to Bank under that certain Second Amended and Restated Delayed Draw Term Note 1A in the original principal amount of $4,500,000 and dated December 30, 2021 (“Prior Note”).

1.    Term Note. This Third Amended and Restated Delayed Draw Term Note 1A is a “Term Note” as defined in that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement of even date herewith between Borrower and Bank (such Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, as the same may be amended, supplemented or restated from time to time, being the “Loan Agreement”) and, as such, shall be construed in accordance with all terms and conditions thereof.
