Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

 

On June 26, 2015, Gaming Partners International Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a $10.0 million 7-year term loan facility and a $5.0 million 5-year revolving credit facility, for a combined $15.0 million facility with Nevada State Bank. The facility will be used to refinance existing indebtedness and for working capital, capital expenditures and other general purposes.

 

The Company borrowed the full amount under the term loan facility and repaid the $10.0 million demand line of credit with HSBC Bank USA, National Association on June 26, 2015. The Company has not drawn down any funds under the revolving credit facility.

 

Interest on funds borrowed under the term loan facility and the revolving credit facility will be charged at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 2.25%

 

The facility contains customary representations, warranties and affirmative, negative and financial covenants. The covenants contain, among other things, limitations on the Company's and its subsidiaries' ability to merge, consolidate, dispose of assets, or incur liens or certain indebtedness. Under the financial covenant, the Company will not permit its fixed charge coverage ratio to be less than 1.15 to 1.00 or its leverage ratio to be more than 3.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter for the 12 consecutive months ending on such date.

 

The facility includes customary events of default, including events of default relating to non-payment of amounts due, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of covenants, non-payment or acceleration of other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency, and change of control. If an event of default occurs under the facility, the lender will be able to terminate the commitments and accelerate the maturity of the loans and exercise other rights and remedies.

 

The Company and its subsidiary, Gaming Partners International USA, Inc. granted to lender a first priority security interest in substantially all of their assets as collateral for the facility. In addition, the facility is guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries Gaming Partners International USA, Inc. and Gaming Partners International Asia Limited.
