Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
On December 23, 2014, ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. (the Company) entered into the First Amendment (the Citizens First Amendment) to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated November 10, 2014, by and among the Company, and its subsidiaries Advanced Forming Technology, Inc., ARC Wireless, Inc., Flomet LLC, General Flange & Forge LLC, Tekna Seal LLC, 3D Material Technologies, LLC, and Quadrant Metals Technologies, LLC, the Borrowers party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto, Citizens Bank, N.A. (formerly known as RBS Citizens, N.A.), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Book Runner, and Capital One, National Association, as Syndication Agent (the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and referred to together with the Citizens First Amendment as the Senior Credit Facility).
The purpose of the Citizens First Amendment is to make technical corrections to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and to clarify, among other matters, that mandatory prepayments of the loans will not be required in connection with any issuance of equity interests of the Company so long as the Companys senior leverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00 (as calculated five business days after the closing date of the issuance of such equity interests) and the proceeds thereof are utilized within 90 days to (i) finance a permitted acquisition or other permitted investments; or (ii) to finance consolidated capital expenditures. If after issuance of equity interests the Companys senior leverage ratio is greater than 2.25:1.00 (as calculated on a pro forma basis), then the proceeds of the issuance of the equity interests will be utilized as follows: 100% of the amount, if any, of such net cash proceeds necessary to reduce the senior leverage ratio to 2.75:1.00 on a pro forma basis, plus (y) 75% of the balance, if any, of such net cash proceeds remaining, to the extent necessary to reduce the Senior Leverage Ratio to 2.25:1.00 on a Pro Forma Basis, plus (z) 50% of the balance, if any, of such net cash proceeds remaining. In the event that any proceeds from the issuance of equity interests are to be applied as cure amounts under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, then 100% of such net cash proceeds will be required to be paid as mandatory prepayments of the loans.
The foregoing description of the Citizens First Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the document. The Citizens First Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.40 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
First Amendment to Subordinated Loan Agreement.
On December 29, 2014, the Company entered into the First Amendment (the McLarty First Amendment) and its subsidiaries Advanced Forming Technology, Inc., ARC Wireless, Inc., Flomet LLC, General Flange & Forge LLC, Tekna Seal LLC, 3D Material Technologies, LLC, and Quadrant Metals Technologies, LLC, together with McLarty Capital Partners SBIC, L.P. (McLarty), as administrative agent, and other lenders from time to time party thereto (the Subordinated Loan Agreement).
The purpose of the McLarty First Amendment is to make technical corrections to the Subordinated Loan Agreement and to clarify, among other matters, that mandatory prepayments of the subordinated loans will not be required in connection with any issuance of equity interests of the Company so long as, after satisfaction of mandatory prepayment obligations under the Senior Credit Facility, the Companys senior leverage ratio is less than 2.25:1.00 (as calculated five business days after the closing date of the issuance of such equity interests) and the proceeds thereof are utilized within 90 days to (i) finance a permitted acquisition or other permitted investments; or (ii) to finance consolidated capital expenditures. If after issuance of equity interests the Companys senior leverage ratio is greater than 2.25:1.00 (as calculated on a pro forma basis), then the proceeds of the issuance of the equity interests will be utilized as follows: 25% of the amount, if any, of such net cash proceeds necessary to reduce the senior leverage ratio to 2.25:1.00 on a pro forma basis, plus (y) 50% of the balance, if any, of such net cash proceeds remaining, to the extent necessary to reduce the Senior Leverage Ratio to 2.25:1.00. In the event that any proceeds from the issuance of equity interests are to be applied as cure amounts under the Subordinated Loan Agreement, then 100% of such net cash proceeds will be required to be paid as mandatory prepayments of the subordinated loans.
