By an amendment dated April 5, 2011 (“Amendment No. 1”), Movado Group, Inc. (the “Company”), together with Movado Group Delaware Holdings Corporation, Movado Retail Group, Inc. and Movado LLC, each a wholly-owned domestic subsidiary of the Company (together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), Bank of America, N.A. and Bank Leumi USA, as lenders (“Lenders”), and Bank of America, N.A., as agent, amended the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement previously entered into by and among the parties dated as of July 17, 2009 (the “Existing Loan Agreement”).
Modifications to the Existing Loan Agreement effected by Amendment No. 1 include the following:
|
●
|
The applicable margins for LIBOR rate loans and for base rate loans were reduced by 1.25%.
|
|
●
|
The definition of LIBOR was changed to eliminate a floor of 2.0%.
|
|
●
|
The unused line fee was reduced from 0.75% to 0.375% per annum times the amount by which the revolver commitments exceed the average daily balance of revolver loans and the stated amount of letters of credit. In addition, the rate to which the unused line fee is increased, for any month in which the average daily balance of revolver loans and the stated amount of letters of credit is less than 50% of the revolver commitments, was reduced from 1.0% to 0.5%.
|
|
●
|
The number of examinations of the Company’s books and records for which Borrowers are required to reimburse Lenders was reduced from two to one per year if certain financial conditions are met. In addition, those conditions were modified to reduce the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio from 1.25/1.00 to 1.00/1.00 and to establish the other conditions as availability greater than $25 million and outstanding obligations of less than $15 million.
|
|
●
|
Borrowers are permitted to pay dividends through July 17, 2012 in an aggregate amount not to exceed (a) $4 million during any four fiscal quarters or (b) $5.5 million during the entire period from February 1, 2011 through July 17, 2012, provided that no event of default has occurred and that, for the four fiscal quarter period most recently ended prior to the proposed dividend payment date, the Borrowers have achieved an adjusted consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.25 to 1.0 and have pro forma availability greater than $12.5 million.
|
The guarantees and collateral securing the credit facility remain unchanged. The representations and warranties and events of default remain unchanged as well and, except as described above, the covenants and all other provisions of the Existing Loan Agreement remain unchanged.
