Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Company enters into a new $45 million credit facility

On July 20, 2016, Manitex International, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with The PrivateBank and Trust Company. The Loan Agreement provides the Company with a $45 million revolving credit facility, which has a maturity date of July 20, 2019.

Borrowing under the credit facility is limited to existing collateral, as defined in the Loan Agreement. The indebtedness under the Loan Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, except for the assets of A.S.V., LLC, PM Group S.p.A. and CVS Ferrari srl and their respective subsidiaries.

The Loan Agreement provides that the Company can opt to pay interest on the revolving credit at either a base rate plus a spread, or a LIBOR rate plus a spread. The base rate spread ranges from 0.25% to 1.00% depending on the Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement), but is fixed at 1.00% for the first six months. The LIBOR spread ranges from 2.25% to 3.00% also depending on the Senior Leverage Ratio, but is fixed at 3.00% for the first six months.

The Loan Agreement has a Letter of Credit facility of $3 million, which is fully reserved against availability.

The Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict the Company and its subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, make investments, make acquisitions, pay dividends or make distributions, repurchase stock, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a credit facility of this size and type.

The Loan Agreement includes customary events of default that, include among other things, non-payment, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross default to material indebtedness, bankruptcy, insolvency defaults, and a change of control default. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the Loan Agreement.

The above summary of the Loan Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full terms thereof, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

The Loan Agreement replaces the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 9, 2015 by and among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and Comerica Bank, certain of its subsidiaries and Fifth Third Bank, as amended, which was terminated in connection with the closing of the Loan Agreement.
