Amendment to Loan Agreement

 

On December 10, 2015, Summer Infant, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries, Summer Infant (USA), Inc., Summer Infant Canada, Limited and Summer Infant Europe Limited (collectively, the “Summer Entities”) entered into an amendment (the “Loan Amendment”) to that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of April 21, 2015, among the Summer Entities, Bank of America, N.A., as agent (the “Agent”), certain financial institutions party to the agreement from time to time as lenders, and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as sole lead arranger and sole book runner (the “Loan Agreement”).  The senior secured credit facilities under the Loan Agreement consist of a $60 million asset-based revolving credit facility, with a $10 million letter of credit sub-line facility (the “Revolving Facility”), a $5 million “first in last out” revolving credit facility (the “FILO Facility”) and a $10 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”).

 

The Loan Amendment amends the interest rate under each of Revolving Facility, the FILO Facility and the Term Loan Facility as follows: (i) loans under the Revolving Facility will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a base rate or at LIBOR, plus applicable margins based on average quarterly availability under the Loan Agreement and ranging between 2.00% and 2.50% on LIBOR borrowings and 0.50% and 1.00% on base rate borrowings; and (ii) loans under each of the FILO Facility and the Term Loan Facility will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a base rate or at LIBOR, plus a margin of 4.25% on LIBOR borrowings and 2.75% on base rate borrowings.

 

The Loan Amendment also amends the maximum leverage ratio financial covenant in the Loan Agreement and revises certain expenses and fees included within the definition of EBITDA under the Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the Loan Amendment, the occurrence of an event having a material adverse effect on the Company would no longer qualify as an event of default under the Loan Agreement.
