Tenth Amendment to Credit Agreement; Fifth Amendment to Export Credit Agreement.
On May 21, 2024, SIFCO Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “borrowers”) entered into the Tenth Amendment (the “Tenth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement (as previously amended, the “Credit Agreement”) and the Fifth Amendment (the “Fifth Amendment”) to the Export Credit Agreement (the “Export Credit Agreement”), in each case, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Tenth Amendment.
The Tenth Amendment amends the Credit Agreement to, among other things: (i) reflect the agreement of the Lender to make Revolving Loans to the borrowers from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in the Revolving Exposure exceeding the least of (x) the Revolving Commitment, less the Availability Block, if applicable, (y) the Borrowing Base, and (z) in combination with the Export Revolving Loans under the Export Credit Agreement, (i) $18,000,000 through September 30, 2023, (ii) $19,000,000 from and including October 1, 2023 through May 14, 2024, and (iii) $22,000,000 thereafter until, and reducing to zero and terminating on, the Maturity Date, subject to the Lender’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement; (ii) reflect the agreement of the borrowers to continue to use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to refinance and pay in full the Secured Obligations as soon as practicable and to provide periodic updates and other information with respect thereto as reasonably requested by the Lender, will notify the Lender of any refinancing proposals of any kind and will direct any advisors to respond to any inquiries by the Lender and to fully and candidly discuss with the Lender any matters relating to such refinancing efforts; (iii) modify the definition of Borrowing Base to mean at any time, the sum of (a) 85% of Eligible Accounts at such time, plus (b) the lesser of (i) 70% of Eligible Inventory, valued at the lower of cost or market value, determined on a first-in-first-out basis, at such time, and (ii) 85% of the NOLV Percentage identified in the most recent inventory appraisal ordered by the Lender multiplied by Eligible Inventory, valued at the lower of cost or market value, determined on a first-in-first-out basis, at such time, minus (c) Reserves of $1,500,000, or such other amount, if any, as may be determined in writing by the Lender in its Permitted Discretion (which may be by email from the Lender), plus (d) the PP&E Component; and (iv) increase the Revolving Commitment to $22,000,000.
The Lender’s agreement is subject to the satisfaction by the borrowers of certain conditions outlined in the Tenth Amendment, including the receipt by the Lender of fully executed copies of (i) the Fifth Amendment and (ii) the First Amendment (the “Guaranty Amendment”) to the Guaranty Agreement (the “Guaranty Agreement”) executed and delivered by Mark. J. Silk, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Silk”) in favor of the Lender. The Guaranty Amendment amends the Guaranty Agreement to increase the amount guarantied by Silk thereunder from $19,000,000 to $22,000,000.
The Fifth Amendment amends the Export Credit Agreement to, among other things: (i) reflect the agreement of the Lender to make Revolving Loans to the borrowers from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in the Revolving Exposure exceeding the least of (x) the Revolving Commitment, (y) the Borrowing Base, and (z) in combination with the Revolving Exposure (as defined in the Domestic Credit Agreement) under the Domestic Credit Agreement, (i) $18,000,000 through September 30, 2023, (ii) $19,000,000 from and including October 1, 2023 through May 14, 2024, and (iii) $22,000,000 thereafter until, and reducing to zero and terminating on, the Maturity Date; and (ii) reflect the agreement of the borrowers to continue to use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to refinance and pay in full the Secured Obligations as soon as practicable and to provide periodic updates and other information with respect thereto as reasonably requested by the Lender, will notify the Lender of any refinancing proposals of any kind and will direct any advisors to respond to any inquiries by the Lender and to fully and candidly discuss with the Lender any matters relating to such refinancing efforts.
The Lender’s agreement is subject to the satisfaction by the borrowers of certain conditions outlined in the Fifth Amendment, including the receipt by the Lender of fully executed copies of (i) the Tenth Amendment and (ii) the Guaranty Amendment.
The foregoing descriptions of the Tenth Amendment and the Fifth Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Tenth Amendment and the Fifth Amendment, attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated herein by reference.
