Attention:  Curt Kroll

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is made to that certain Second Lien Credit and Security Agreement dated as of April 7, 2015 (as amended, restated, extended, renewed or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Katy Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company;”), Continental Commercial Products, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, FTW Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Fort Wayne Plastics, Inc., an Indiana corporation (each of the foregoing, individually and collectively, “Borrower” or “Borrowers”), the other Persons that are parties to the Credit Agreement as Guarantors, VPC SBIC I, LP, as a Lender, the other financial institutions and other entities that are parties to the Credit Agreement as Lenders, and Victory Park Management, LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent for Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors and permitted assigns, “Agent”).  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.  This Limited Waiver is a Loan Document.

1.            Limited Waiver.          Borrowers have advised Agent and Lenders that certain Events of Default have occurred and are continuing pursuant to Section 9.01(b) of the Credit Agreement, as a result of the Loan Parties’ failure to meet the minimum Consolidated EBITDA covenant set forth in Section 8.12(c) of the Credit Agreement and the Leverage Ratio covenant set forth in Section 8.12(e) of the Credit Agreement, in each case, for the Fiscal Quarter ended December 31, 2015 (each a “Specified Financial Covenant Default” and, collectively, the “Specified Financial Covenant Defaults”).  The Loan Parties have requested, among other things, that Agent and Lenders waive the Specified Financial Covenant Defaults and the following Defaults and Events of Default resulting directly from the occurrence of any Specified Financial Covenant Default (including each Specified Financial Covenant Default, each a “Specified Default” and, collectively, the “Specified Defaults”):  (a) that certain Event of Default under Section 9.01(e) of the Credit Agreement resulting from the Loan Parties’ failure to meet the minimum Consolidated EBITDA covenant set forth in Section 8.12(c) of the First Lien Credit Agreement and the Leverage Ratio covenant set forth in Section 8.12(e) of the First Credit Agreement, in each case, for the Fiscal Quarter ended December 31, 2015 (each a “First Lien Specified Financial Covenant Default”) and any other Default or Event of Default (each as defined under the First Lien Credit Agreement) under the First Lien Credit Agreement resulting directly from the occurrence of any other Specified Default, (b) any Event of Default under Section 9.01(k) of the Credit Agreement, if applicable, resulting directly from the occurrence of any other Specified Default, and (c) any Event of Default under Section 9.01(b) under the Credit Agreement arising from any failure to promptly notify the Agent of the occurrence of (i) any Default under the Credit Agreement with respect to any Specified Default pursuant to Section 7.03(a) of the Credit Agreement and (ii) any Default or Event of Default (each as defined under the First Lien Credit Agreement) under the First Lien Credit Agreement due to the occurrence of any First Lien Specified Financial Covenant Default or any other Default or Event of Default under the First Lien Credit Agreement resulting directly from the occurrence of any of the Specified Defaults pursuant to Section 7.03(b) of the Credit Agreement.

 

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, Agent and Lenders are willing to accommodate such request, on the terms set forth herein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth herein, Agent and Lenders party hereto hereby waive the Specified Defaults and, except as expressly set forth herein, their right to take any action under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents that they may otherwise have had as a result of the occurrence of any of the Specified Defaults.

This is a limited, one-time waiver and shall not be deemed to: (a) constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default or any other breach of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, whether now existing or hereafter arising, except as expressly set forth herein with respect to the Specified Defaults, (b) constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Agent or any of Lenders under the Loan Documents which does not arise as a result of any Specified Default (all such rights and remedies being expressly reserved by Agent and Lenders) or (c) establish a custom or course of dealing or conduct between Agent and Lenders, on the one hand, and Borrowers or any other Loan Party on the other hand.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, the Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms.

2.             Amendment to Credit Agreement.          The Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(i)          Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” in its entirety and substituting the following language therefor:

Therefore, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein and other sufficient consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Borrower and the Lender hereby agree as follows:

2.             Effectiveness of Agreement.  This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written above, but only if this Agreement has been executed by each Borrower and the Lender, and the other items listed on Exhibit A attached hereto to be delivered prior to this Agreement becoming effective have been delivered and, as applicable, executed, attested, acknowledged, certified, or authenticated (or such delivery or execution, attestation, acknowledgement, certification or authentication is waived by the Lender), each in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, and all fees and expenses of the Lender have been fully reimbursed for which invoices or amounts have been presented.

3.             Waiver.

The Loan Parties have requested, among other things, that the Lender waive the Specified Financial Covenant Defaults and the following Defaults and Events of Default resulting directly from the occurrence of any Specified Financial Covenant Default (including each Specified Financial Covenant Default, each a “Specified Default” and, collectively, the “Specified Defaults”):  (a) that certain Event of Default under Section 9.01(e) of the Credit Agreement resulting from the Loan Parties’ failure to meet the minimum Consolidated EBITDA covenant set forth in Section 8.12(c) of the Second Lien Credit Agreement and the Leverage Ratio covenant set forth in Section 8.12(e) of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, in each case, for the Fiscal Quarter ended December 31, 2015 (each a “Second Lien Specified Financial Covenant Default”) and any other Default or Event of Default (each as defined under the Second Lien Credit Agreement) under the Second Lien Credit Agreement resulting directly from the occurrence of any other Specified Default, (b) any Event of Default under Section 9.01(k) of the Credit Agreement, if applicable, resulting directly from the occurrence of any other Specified Default, (c) any Event of Default under Section 9.01(b) under the Credit Agreement arising from any failure to promptly notify the Lender of the occurrence of (i) any Default under the Credit Agreement with respect to any Specified Default pursuant to Section 7.03(a) of the Credit Agreement and (ii) any Default or Event of Default (each as defined under the Second Lien Credit Agreement) under the Second Lien Credit Agreement due to the occurrence of any Second Lien Specified Financial Covenant Default or any other Default or Event of Default under the Second Lien Credit Agreement resulting directly from the occurrence of any of the Specified Defaults pursuant to Section 7.03(b) of the Credit Agreement, and (d) any Event of Default under Section 9.01(d) of the Credit Agreement arising from a breach of any representation, warranty, certification or statement regarding the occurrence or existence of any Specified Default.

 

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, the Lender is willing to accommodate such request, on the terms set forth herein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth herein, the Lender hereby waives the Specified Defaults and the Specified Defaults shall no longer exist and, except as expressly set forth herein, its right to take any action under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including any right to terminate the Commitment) that it may otherwise have had as a result of the occurrence of any of the Specified Defaults.

This is a limited, one-time waiver and shall not be deemed to: (a) constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default or any other breach of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, whether now existing or hereafter arising, except as expressly set forth herein with respect to the Specified Defaults, (b) constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of the Lender under the Loan Documents which does not arise as a result of any Specified Default (all such rights and remedies being expressly reserved by the Lender) or (c) establish a custom or course of dealing or conduct between the Lender, on the one hand, and Borrowers or any other Loan Party on the other hand.  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, the Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms.
