Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 22, 2018, NeoGenomics Laboratories, Inc. (“NeoGenomics Laboratories”), as borrower, and NeoGenomics, Inc. ("Holdings") and certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the "Amendment") with Regions Bank, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto. The initial agreement was entered into on December 22, 2016 and provided for a $75 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a $75 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”).
The Amendment restates the definition of Consolidated EBITDA by providing for a one-time additional add-back for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017 for loss of gross margin resulting from the impact of hurricanes on Holdings and its subsidiaries in such fiscal quarter. This is in addition to one-time costs that have already been added back to adjusted EBITDA. The Amendment further restates the definition of Consolidated Leverage Ratio to permit the ratio as of the end of any Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower to be greater than (i) for any fiscal quarter ending on or after March 31, 2017 to and including December 31, 2018, 3.75:1.0, (ii) for any fiscal quarter ending on or after March 31, 2019 to and including December 31, 2019, 3.50 to 1.0, (iii) for any fiscal quarter ending on or after March 31, 2020 to and including December 31, 2020, 3.25 to 1.0, and (iv) for any fiscal quarter ending on or after March 31, 2021 and thereafter, 3.00:1.0. This has the impact of increasing NeoGenomics Laboratories overall borrowing capacity from 2018 through 2020.

The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its' entirety by reference to the full text of the document, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
