Item 1.01.       Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 21, 2013, Crown Crafts, Inc. (the “Company”), together with Hamco, Inc. and Crown Crafts Infant Products, Inc., each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), entered into a Ninth Amendment to Financing Agreement (the “Ninth Amendment”) with The CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc. (“CIT”) to amend that certain Financing Agreement between the Borrowers, Churchill Weavers, Inc. (“Weavers”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and CIT dated July 11, 2006 (as amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Financing Agreement”). The Ninth Amendment extends the termination date of the Financing Agreement to July 11, 2016 and provides for certain other modifications to the Financing Agreement, including releasing Weavers, whose operations were discontinued in 2007, from the Financing Agreement.

 

The Ninth Amendment will become effective on July 11, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), after which the revolving loans under the Financing Agreement will accrue interest at the reduced rates of prime minus 0.50% per annum or the applicable LIBOR plus 2% per annum. After the Effective Date, the Financing Agreement will include a commitment fee payable monthly in arrears on the daily amount of the unused portion of the revolving loan amount at the rate of 0.125% per annum, a reduction from the 0.25% rate previously in effect under the Financing Agreement. In addition, as amended by the Ninth Amendment, the Financing Agreement will no longer include any prepayment or early termination fees.

 

The description contained herein of the Ninth Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of such document, which is attached hereto as an exhibit and incorporated herein by this reference.
