Under the terms of that certain Notice of Imposition of Reserves and Reservation of Rights dated November 13, 2014 from Agent to Borrower (“Notice of Reserves”) (i) a reserve in the amount of $500,000 has been imposed against the amount available to be drawn as Revolving Advances and (ii) commencing November 17, 2014 and continuing weekly thereafter until such time as the Agent may determine otherwise in its sole Credit Judgment, an additional reserve has been imposed in the amount of $50,000 per week; furthermore, any such reserves may be increased or modified by the Agent as it deems proper and necessary from time to time in its Credit Judgment.

 

C. Certain Events of Default under Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement have occurred and are continuing as a result of (i) Borrowers’ failure to comply with the minimum EBITDA covenant set forth in Section 6.5(a) for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014, (ii) Borrowers’ failure to comply with the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio set forth in Section 6.5(b) for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014, (iii) the incurrence of debt under the Stephen Cope Notes (as defined below) and the making of any payments in respect of the Stephen Cope Notes (as defined below), all of which actions are prohibited under Section 7.8 (Indebtedness) of the Credit Agreement, and (iv) the failure to make any payments when due in respect of the Stephen Cope Notes, which would constitute a failure to pay Material Indebtedness pursuant to Section 10.12(c) of the Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Existing Defaults”).
