Item 1.01 Entry into a Definitive Agreement

 

On April 27, 2017, Optical Cable Corporation (the “Company”) and Bank of North Carolina (the “Bank”) entered into a Third Loan Modification Agreement (the “Agreement”) to modify the Credit Agreement dated April 26, 2016 entered into between the Company and the Bank (the “Credit Agreement”) and the associated Term Loan A Note and Term Loan B Note, both dated April 26, 2016 (the “Notes”). The Credit Agreement, Notes and ancillary documents are defined as the “Loan”.

 

The primary purpose of the Agreement was to (i) revise the interest rates of Term Loan A and Term Loan B and the applicable repayment installments, and (ii) extend the maturity date of Term Loan A and Term Loan B. The fixed interest rate of each of the two term loans was revised to 3.95% from 3.75%, and the maturity date of the loans was extended to May 2024.

 

Term Loan A and Term Loan B are generally secured by the land and buildings at the Company’s headquarters and manufacturing facilities located in Roanoke, Virginia and its manufacturing and office facilities located near Asheville, North Carolina and the Company’s personal property and assets.

 

All other terms of the Loan remain unaltered and remain in full force and effect.
