TIMCO AVIATION SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2004
(Unaudited)
(Amounts and Shares in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION and LIQUIDITY
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
TIMCO Aviation Services, Inc. (the Company) is a Delaware corporation that, through its subsidiaries, provides aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MR&O) services to commercial passenger airlines, air cargo carriers, aircraft leasing companies, maintenance and repair facilities and aircraft parts redistributors throughout the world.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for reporting on Form 10-Q. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, File No. 001- 11775 (the Form 10-K).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2004, the results of its operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2004 and its cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2004. The results of operations and cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows which may be reported for the year ending December 31, 2004.
LIQUIDITY
The Company has recently refinanced all of its senior debt. On April 8, 2004, the Company closed on an agreement with the CIT Group in which the Company obtained a $35,000 senior secured revolving line of credit (the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit) and a $6,400 senior secured term loan (the CIT Group Term Loan, and collectively with the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit, the CIT Group Credit Facility). The CIT Group Credit Facility matures on December 31, 2007. Effective on the same date, the Company obtained an $8,000 senior secured term loan from Hilco Capital LP (the Hilco Term Loan) and refinanced the $14,412 of aggregate term debt due to its principal stockholder. In addition, on March 31, 2004, the Company sold its office and warehouse facility located in Miramar, Florida and used the proceeds to repay in full the Companys TROL financing obligation ($23,624 as of March 31, 2004). For details of these events, see Notes 5 and 10.
For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company incurred a loss from continuing operations of $3,967. The Company also had a net stockholders deficit as of December 31, 2003 and continued to require additional cash flow above amounts currently being provided from operations to meet its working capital requirements. The Companys ability to service its debt obligations as they come due, including maintaining compliance with the covenants and provisions of all of its debt obligations, is dependent upon the Companys future financial and operating performance. That performance, in turn, is subject to various factors, including certain factors beyond the Companys control, such as changes in conditions affecting the airline industry and changes in the overall economy. Additionally, as a result of the state of the general economy, fluctuations in the price of jet fuel, a significant decline, from calendar year 2000, in passenger airline travel, the currently on-going war on terrorism, the war in Iraq, and a competitive price reduction in airfare prices, the airline industry, and thus the Companys customer base, has been significantly impacted. The result for some carriers has been the filing for protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. These factors have also resulted in some of the Companys competitors exiting the maintenance, repair, and overhaul business.
8
The Company is highly leveraged and has significant obligations under its outstanding debt agreements. As a result, significant amounts of cash flow from operations is required to make required payments of the Companys debt obligations, thereby reducing funds available for other purposes. Even if the Company is able to meet its debt service and other obligations when due, the Company may not be able to comply with the covenants and other provisions under its debt instruments. A failure to comply, unless waived by the lenders and noteholders, would be an event of default and would permit the lenders to accelerate the maturity of these debt obligations. It would also permit the lenders to terminate their commitments to extend additional credit under their financing agreements. If the Company was unable to meet its obligations under its debt instruments, or if the Company could not obtain waivers of defaults under any such agreements (including defaults caused by the failure to meet financial covenants), the lenders could proceed against the collateral securing these financing obligations and exercise all other rights available to them. While the Company expects that it will make all required debt payments and meet all financial covenants in 2004, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so.
2. SALE OF ASSETS AND OPERATING ENTITIES
In March 2004, the Company sold its office and warehouse facility located in Miramar, Florida for a gross sales price of $26,000. See Note 5 for particulars of this sales transaction and resulting repayment of the Companys TROL financing arrangement which was secured by the assets of this facility.
In December 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to sell an idle facility located in Covington, Kentucky. This facility was previously part of the Companys manufacturing operations and had no operations since fiscal 2000. The net sales price was $454 and is included within net assets of discontinued operations as of December 31, 2003 within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The resulting gain on this sale, which was recognized with the consummation of the sale during the fourth quarter of 2003, was $411. The cash proceeds related to this sale were fully funded in February 2004.
3. SENIOR CREDIT FACILITIES
Commencing January 30, 2004, the Company entered into a series of two amendments and limited waiver agreements pursuant to which the maturity date of the Companys existing senior revolving credit and term loan facilities, which were scheduled to mature on January 31, 2004, were extended until July 31, 2004. Through these series of amendments and limited waiver agreements, the Company temporarily extended its senior revolving credit facility and term loan (the Amended Credit Agreement), which was offered through a syndicate of four lenders led by Citicorp USA Inc. and UPS Capital Corporation. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company had a $30,000 senior secured revolving line of credit (the Amended Revolving Credit Facility) and a $3,500 senior secured term loan (the Amended Term Loan and collectively with the Amended Revolving Credit Facility, the Amended Credit Facility). Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility were secured by a lien on substantially all of the Companys assets and the borrowing base consisted primarily of certain of the Companys account receivables, inventory, and machinery and equipment. The interest rate on the Amended Revolving Credit Facility was, at the Companys option, (a) prime plus 3% per annum, or (b) LIBOR plus 4.5% per annum. The interest rate on the Amended Term Loan was 12% per annum.
The Amended Credit Agreement contained certain financial covenants regarding the Companys financial performance and certain other covenants, including limitations on the amount of annual capital expenditures and the incurrence of additional debt, and provided for the termination of the Amended Credit Facility and repayment of all debt in the event of a material adverse change in the business or a change in control, as defined. A default and acceleration of repayment under the Amended Credit Facility could also have potentially resulted in repayment acceleration under other agreements to which the Company is a party, including the TROL financing agreement. Generally, the Amended Credit Agreement required mandatory repayments and reduction of the commitments thereunder from proceeds of a sale of assets or an issuance of equity or debt securities. Mandatory repayments were also required as a result of insufficient collateral to meet the borrowing base requirements thereunder or in the event the outstanding obligations under the Amended Credit Facility exceeded the commitments thereunder. During the first quarter of 2003, the Company was not in compliance with certain covenants contained in the Amended Credit Agreement. The senior lenders, however, waived, and in some instances, amended all such events of non-compliance and as March 31, 2003, the Company was in compliance with all covenant requirements, as amended. As of March 31, 2004, the outstanding aggregate amount borrowed under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility was $17,348, the outstanding Amended Term Loan was $3,500 and the amount of outstanding letters of credit under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility was $9,120. See Note 10 for a discussion of the Companys refinancing subsequent to March 31, 2004 of all amounts due under the Amended Credit Agreement.
9
In addition, the Company had a $5,000 term loan with Bank of America (BofA), which had been credit supported by various parties, including the Companys principal stockholder, and which was scheduled to mature on January 31, 2004. In connection with the above-described short-term extension of the revolving credit and term loan facilities, the Companys principal stockholder repaid BofA and agreed to extend the term of this loan, under the same terms previously extended by BofA, except the maturity date was extended until July 31, 2004. Under these terms, this $5,000 related party term loan bore interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 2%. In April 2004, the Company refinanced all of its previously outstanding debt (principal plus accrued and unpaid interest), including this $5,000 term loan, with its principal stockholder. See Note 10.
4. TERM LOAN TO A RELATED PARTY
As discussed above, in January 2004, the Companys principal stockholder repaid the Companys previously outstanding $5,000 term loan with BofA and continued to extend this loan to the Company under the same terms previously extended by BofA, except the maturity date was extended until July 31, 2004. See Note 3 for particulars of this related party term loan. Also see Note 10 for particulars of a refinancing of all of the Companys outstanding debt obligations due to the Companys principal stockholder.
On May 14, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with its principal stockholder pursuant to which the principal stockholder loaned the Company $6,050. This term loan was used for working capital requirements. This term note had a three-year maturity, was secured and bore paid-in-kind interest at the rate of 16% per annum. From inception through March 31, 2004, all interest obligations of $1,127 had been paid-in-kind and are included within other long-term liabilities within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. Further, the $1,300 loan obtained from the principal stockholder in connection with the acquisition of Brice Manufacturing in October 2002 was added to this $6,050 loan, and the Keepwell agreement, under which the Companys principal stockholder was required to fund any Brice Manufacturing EBITDA losses, was eliminated. Additionally, in September 2003, the Company agreed to increase this note by $900 reflecting the Companys purchase from its principal stockholder of the aircraft parts inventory located at the Goodyear facility (which inventory was acquired by the Companys principal stockholder in the AMS bankruptcy proceedings; see Note 7). This term loan from the Companys principal stockholder contained cross acceleration provisions if the obligations to the Companys senior lenders were accelerated.
Both of these related party term loans were refinanced in April 2004. See Note 10.
In connection with the funding of the $6,050 term loan, the Company issued a warrant to its principal stockholder to acquire, for nominal consideration, 30% of the Companys outstanding common stock (on a fully-diluted basis) as of the day the warrant is exercised. The warrant is exercisable on or before January 31, 2007. The warrant valuation, as determined by an independent business valuation specialist through a fair market value assessment of the Company, was recorded at $1,258 as of May 14, 2003. The Company has recorded the value of this warrant as deferred financing costs and is amortizing this amount to expense over a three-year period.
5. TAX RETENTION OPERATING LEASE (TROL) FINANCING
The Companys TROL financing arrangement was originally utilized to develop two facilities: (i) a corporate headquarters and warehouse facility, which was being subleased to Kellstrom Aerospace, LLC, and (ii) a facility to house the Companys Caribe operations, which was sold in May 2001. Substantially all of the Companys subsidiaries had guaranteed the Companys obligations under the TROL financing arrangement. Payments were at a rate of Prime plus 3.25% to 4.00% and the Company was responsible for all property taxes, insurance and maintenance of the property. Under the terms of the Amended TROL Financing Agreement, entered into in July 2002, the maturity date of the TROL financing was extended until June 30, 2005 and the base monthly rental under the TROL was increased to the greater of: (i) the amount being received by the Company under its sublease for the Companys Miramar facility plus, commencing July 1, 2003, an additional monthly payment by the Company, or (ii) $210.
The TROL financing contained certain financial covenants regarding the Companys financial performance and certain other covenants, which overall substantially mirrored the covenant requirements under the Amended Credit Agreement, and provided for the termination of the TROL financing agreement and repayment of all debt in the event of a material adverse change in the Companys business. For the first quarter of 2003, the Company was not in compliance with certain of the covenants contained in the TROL financing agreement. Additionally, as a result of a cross default provision between the TROL financing agreement and the Amended Credit Agreement, for which the Company was also in violation of covenant requirements during the first quarter of 2003, the Company was also in default of the TROL financing agreement. The lessor under the TROL financing agreement and senior lenders of the Amended Credit Facility, however, waived, and in certain instances
10
amended, all such events of non-compliance and as of March 31, 2003, the Company was in compliance with all covenant requirements, as amended.
On February 5, 2004, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its office and warehouse facility located in Miramar, Florida, and on March 31, 2004, the Company closed on the sale contemplated by this definitive agreement. The gross sales price was $26,000. The proceeds of the sale were used to repay in full the TROL financing obligation ($23,624). The balance, net of transaction expenses and other Miramar property related expenses which the Company was obligated to pay, which approximates $320, was used to repay amounts outstanding under the Amended Term Loan (which repayment occurred in April 2004 as part of Companys refinance of all of its senior debt obligations. See Note 10). Additionally, as a result of this sale, the Company has recorded a gain on disposal of fixed assets of $825. This gain is included within other income-net within the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. Finally, as was required under the Companys previous senior credit facility, in February 2004, the Company entered into an amendment and limited waiver agreement with its previous senior lenders for the purpose of releasing the Miramar facility for sale.
6. SUBORDINATED NOTES
8% SENIOR SUBORDINATED PIK NOTES DUE 2006
On February 28, 2002, in connection with its capital and debt restructuring, the Company issued $100,000 face value, in aggregate, principal amount of 8.0% senior subordinated convertible paid-in-kind (PIK) notes (New Notes), which mature on December 31, 2006. The New Notes bear interest from the date of issuance and are payable at the Companys option either in cash or paid-in-kind through the issuance of additional New Notes semiannually on June 30 and December 31 of each year. See Notes 5 and 10 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Companys 2003 Form 10-K for particulars of the Companys February 2002 capital and debt restructuring and for further details regarding the New Notes.
The New Notes are redeemable for cash at the Companys option at the following percentages of par plus accrued interest on the par value through the date of redemption: 2004 73.0%, 2005 75.625% and 2006 77.5%.

8 1/8% SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES DUE 2008
In 1998, the Company sold $165,000 of senior subordinated notes (Old Notes) with a coupon rate of 8.125%, which mature on February 15, 2008. On February 28, 2002, $149,000 face value of these notes were cancelled as part of a note exchange in exchange for cash and securities, and substantially all of the covenants contained in the indenture relating to the remaining Old Notes was extinguished. As a result of the exchange offer and consent solicitation, $16,247 in aggregate principal amount, net of unamortized discount, of Old Notes remain outstanding at March 31, 2004. Interest on the Old Notes is payable on February 15 and August 15 of each year. See Note 5 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companys 2003 Form 10-K for details regarding the Old Notes.

8% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED PIK NOTES DUE 2007
In September 2002, as part of a class action settlement, the Company issued $4,000 face value, in aggregate, new junior subordinated convertible PIK notes (Junior Notes). The Junior Notes bear interest at 8% and mature on January 2, 2007. Interest on the Junior Notes is payable at the Companys option either in cash or paid-in-kind through the issuance of additional notes semiannually on June 30 and December 31 of each year. Additionally, the Junior Notes have been recorded as of September 20, 2002 (the effective date) at the then current redemption value of $2,500. The discount is being accreted to the maturity redemption value, due in January 2007, of approximately $4,400. See Notes 5 and 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companys 2003 Form 10-K for particulars of the class action settlement and for further details regarding the Junior Notes.
The Junior Notes are redeemable for cash at the Companys option at the following percentages of par plus accrued interest on the par value through the date of redemption: 2004 73.0%, 2005 75.625% and 2006 77.5%.

Holders of Junior Notes will not receive any cash payment representing principal or accrued and unpaid interest upon conversion; instead, holders will receive a fixed number of shares of common stock and a cash payment to account for any fractional shares.
7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The Company is taking remedial action pursuant to Environmental Protection Agency and Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) regulations at TIMCO-Lake City. Testing and evaluation for all known sites on TIMCO-Lake Citys property is substantially complete and the Company has commenced a remediation program. The Company is currently monitoring the remediation, which will extend into the future. Based on current testing, technology, environmental law and clean-up experience to date, the Company believes that it has established an adequate accrual for the estimated costs associated with its current remediation strategies. Based upon the most recent cost estimates provided by environmental consultants, it is estimated that the total remaining testing, remediation and compliance costs for this facility will be $768. Additionally, during 2003 the Company secured an insurance policy to comply with financial assurances required by the FDEP.
Additionally, there are other areas adjacent to TIMCO-Lake Citys facility that could also require remediation. The Company does not believe that it is responsible for these areas; however, it may be asserted that the Company and other parties are jointly and severally liable and are responsible for the remediation of those properties.
Accrued expenses in the accompanying March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 condensed consolidated balance sheets include $768 and $810, respectively, related to obligations to remediate the environmental matters described above. Future information and developments will require the Company to continually reassess the expected impact of the environmental matters discussed above. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from the estimates, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental exposures. These uncertainties include the extent of required remediation based on testing and evaluation not yet completed and the varying costs and effectiveness of remediation methods. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these environmental exposures will not have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
LEASE COMMITMENTS WITH RELATED PARTIES
During December 2002, an entity controlled by the Companys principal stockholder acquired the operating assets of Aviation Management Systems, Inc. (AMS) located in Phoenix, Arizona. Additionally, this entity assumed a lease with the City of Phoenix for facilities previously leased by AMS at the Goodyear Airport. In April 2003, the Company entered into an operating sublease agreement with the principal stockholder to operate the business in the facilities that were previously leased to AMS. The term of the sublease is for three years with rental payments of $432 annually. Under the sublease agreement, the Company is also responsible for insurance, taxes and charges levied by the City of Phoenix under the main lease. In addition, as discussed in Note 4, the Company has agreed to increase its related party term loan by $900
12
reflecting the purchase from its principal stockholder of the aircraft parts inventory located at the Goodyear facility (which inventory was acquired by the Companys principal stockholder in the AMS bankruptcy proceedings). Further, subsequent to March 31, 2004, the Company entered into an equipment lease with its principal stockholder with respect to the equipment and tooling used at the Goodyear facility (which equipment and tooling had been acquired by the Companys principal stockholder in the AMS bankruptcy proceedings). The lease, which will be recorded as a capital lease, is for a two-year term and requires monthly payments of $74. Both the inventory sale and the equipment lease are believed to be on terms not less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from an unaffiliated third party.
During October 2002, the Company sold its real estate and fixtures located at the Companys Aircraft Interior Design, Inc. (AID) operation in Dallas, Texas, to the Companys principal stockholder. The gross sale price for these assets was approximately $2,400, which was the estimated fair market value, based on a third party appraisal, on the sale date. Simultaneous with this sale, the Company entered into a lease agreement with the principal stockholder for substantially all of these assets. The term of this lease is ten years. Annual rental payments are approximately $300 per year, with the Company being responsible for, among other things, taxes, insurance and utilities. The sale and resulting leaseback qualify for sale leaseback accounting pursuant to SFAS No. 98, Accounting for Leases. The Company deferred the gain on sale of approximately $1,700 and is amortizing this gain to income over the term of the lease agreement as an offset to rent expense. Deferred income within the accompanying March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 condensed consolidated balance sheets includes $1,431 and $1,473, respectively, relating to this sale leaseback transaction.
LITIGATION AND CLAIMS
The Company is involved in various lawsuits and contingencies arising out of its operations in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
OTHER MATTERS
In connection with a previously outstanding term loan, the Company granted one of its lenders common stock purchase warrants to purchase 13 shares of the Companys common stock exercisable for par value at any time until December 31, 2005. The warrants entitle the holder to require the Company to repurchase the warrants or common shares issued upon prior exercise of the warrants at $85.00 per share. As of March 31, 2004, the lender has not required the Company to repurchase any warrants. If the repurchase right relating to these warrants were to be exercised in full, the Company would be obligated to pay its lender an aggregate of $1,097. This aggregate obligation is included within accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. In April 2004, in connection with the refinancing of its senior debt, the Company settled its repurchase obligation by making a cash payment of $870. See Note 10.
On June 30, 2003, the Company entered into a long-term purchase agreement for various inventory components to be used in the Companys Oscoda, Michigan engine center. Contingent upon the achievement of guaranteed sales volume to the Company by the third party supply vendor, the Company has committed to this vendor to purchase an aggregate of $2,800 of inventory components over an approximate two-year period. An initial inventory purchase of $500 took place on June 30, 2003. The residual inventory purchase obligation of $2,300 will occur in $100 monthly increments. These monthly purchase commitments will first be reduced by inventory used in the normal course of business that is currently on consignment from this third party supplier. Through March 31, 2004, the third party supply vendor did not achieve the guaranteed sales volume levels and thus was in default of this purchase agreement. The Company is currently considering its options with respect to this default.
The Company has employment agreements with its executive officers and certain of its key employees. The employment agreements provide that such officers and key employees may earn bonuses, based upon a sliding percentage scale of their base salaries, provided the Company achieves certain financial operating results, as defined. Further, certain of these employment agreements provide for severance benefits in the event of a change of control.

8. WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES
Basic income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share uses the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period plus the dilutive effect of stock options calculated using the treasury stock method. Weighted average shares used in the computation of basic and diluted income per share is as follows:
| For the Three | ||||||||
| Months Ended | ||||||||

9. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
As permissible under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company accounts for all stock-based compensation arrangements using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation. Accordingly, no compensation cost is recognized for stock option awards granted to employees at or above fair market value.
The following table illustrates the effects on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition of FASB Statement No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation:
| Quarter Ended March 31, | ||||||||
| 2004 |

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure; an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123. This Statement provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. The Company has currently decided to continue to use the intrinsic value method for accounting for stock-based employee compensation, but has adopted all disclosure requirements for reporting in interim financial statements.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 8, 2004, the Company closed on a refinancing of its senior debt as contemplated by a financing agreement dated April 5, 2004. Under the financing agreement, which is between the Company and the CIT Group, the Company obtained a $35,000 senior secured revolving line of credit (the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit) and a $6,400 senior secured term loan (the CIT Group Term Loan, and collectively with the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit, the CIT Group Credit Facility). The Company used the proceeds from the CIT Group Credit Facility to repay in full amounts outstanding under its Amended Revolving Credit Facility, to repay the warrant repurchase obligation due to a previous lender (as described in Note 7) and for working capital.
The CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit is due December 31, 2007 and bears interest, at the Companys option, at (a) Prime plus an advance rate ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% with the advance rate contingent on the Companys leverage ratio, or (b) LIBOR plus an advance rate ranging from 2.50% to 4.00% with the advance rate contingent on the Companys leverage ratio. The CIT Group Term Loan is due in quarterly installments of $291, commencing on October 1, 2004, with the final quarterly installment due on December 31, 2007. The CIT Group Term Loan bears interest at the prevailing rate of the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit plus one percent. Also, the CIT Group Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants regarding the Companys financial performance and certain other covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of additional debt. In addition, an event of default under the Hilco Term Loan (described below) will also result in a default under the CIT Group Credit Facility. Borrowings under the CIT Group Credit Facility are secured by a lien on substantially all of the Companys assets. Borrowings under the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit are based on a borrowing base formula that takes into account the value of the Companys receivables and inventory from time to time. Further, the amount the Company can borrow under the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit is affected by various availability reserves that are established by the lenders under the financing agreement and the Companys borrowings under the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit are capped based on the ratio of the Companys debt to EBITDA and by the maximum amount of the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit. At May 12, 2004, the Companys availability under the CIT Group Revolving Line of Credit was $13,794.
Additionally, simultaneous with its obtaining the CIT Group Credit Facility, the Company borrowed $8,000 from Hilco Capital LP (the Hilco Term Loan). The Company used the proceeds from the Hilco Term Loan to repay amounts outstanding under its Amended Revolving Credit Facility and Amended Term Loan. The Hilco Term Loan matures on December 31, 2007 and bears interest at Prime plus an advance rate ranging from 3.00% and 6.00% with the advance rate contingent upon the Company meeting (from time to time) a ratio of its secured debt to EBITDA. In addition, the Hilco Term Loan bears PIK interest ranging from 2.00% to 5.00% with the prevailing rate also being contingent upon the ratio of the Companys level of secured debt to EBITDA. At no time during the term of this loan, however, will the combined cash and PIK interest rate be less then 9.00% nor greater then 18.00% per annum. Also, the Hilco Term Loan contains certain financial covenants regarding the Companys financial performance and certain other covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of additional debt. In addition, an event of default under the CIT Group Credit Facility (described above) will also result in a default under the Hilco Term Loan. Borrowings under the Hilco Term Loan are secured by a lien on substantially all of the Companys assets.
In connection with the CIT Group Credit Facility and the Hilco Term Loan, the Company paid aggregate fees of approximately $2,000. These fees will be amortized as deferred financing fees, starting in the second quarter of 2004, over the term of the new loans. In addition, as a result of these financing activities, the Company will expense approximately $145 of deferred financing costs in April 2004 which relate to the Amended Credit Facility.
In connection with the refinancing of its senior debt, the Company settled its warrant repurchase obligations to its prior lender by paying $870 in cash. See Note 7.
On April 8, 2004, the Company also refinanced all of its previously outstanding debt (principal plus accrued and unpaid interest) with its principal stockholder with a new $14,412 term loan due on January 31, 2008 (the LJH Term Loan). The LJH Term Loan combines the $5,000 loan which replaced the BofA term loan, the $6,050 related party term loan made in May 2003, the $1,300 loan relating to the Brice acquisition, the $900 obligation related to the AMS inventory purchase, and PIK interest previously paid on these obligations. See Notes 3 and 4. The LJH Term Loan bears interest at 18% per annum, 6% of which is payable in cash and the balance of which will be PIK. The LJH Term Loan is pari-passu with the New Notes, but is secured by a lien on substantially all of the Companys assets. The LJH Term Loan also contains cross acceleration provisions if the obligations to the CIT Group and Hilco are accelerated.
