Item 1.01
|
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
|
On June 1, 2016, Blonder Tongue Laboratories, Inc. (the “Company”), R. L. Drake Holdings, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“RLD” and with the Company, collectively, “Borrower”), and Santander Bank, N.A. (“Santander”) entered into a Fifteenth Amendment to Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement (the “Fifteenth Amendment”), to amend that certain Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement dated August 6, 2008, as amended by the previous thirteen amendments (as amended to date including the Fifteenth Amendment, collectively, the “Loan Agreement”).
The Fifteenth Amendment extends the termination date of the Loan Agreement and the “Additional Availability Period” under the Loan Agreement from June 1, 2016 to September 1, 2016 and amends certain of the Company’s financial covenants. In particular, the amended covenants (i) extend the existing requirement that the Company maintain a balance sheet leverage ratio of not more than 2.00 to 1.00, to include the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2016 and (ii) require the Company to achieve EBITDA of not less than negative (-) $82,000 as of June 30, 2016 (calculated on a trailing six month basis). In addition, the Fifteenth Amendment eliminates the Company’s ability to request LIBOR Loans under the Loan Agreement.
The foregoing summary of the Fifteenth Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Fifteenth Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
