Item 1.01      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 28, 2015, Patrick Industries, Inc. (the “Company” or “Patrick”) entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 28, 2015, (the “2015 Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, the Lenders party thereto, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent. The 2015 Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s existing credit agreement, which was scheduled to expire in October 2017, and extends the maturity to April 2020.

 

The 2015 Credit Agreement provides for a $175 million revolving credit facility and a new $75 million term loan (“the 2015 Credit Facility). The 2015 Credit Agreement also provides for a $50 million expansion option, which may be exercised by the Company subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under both the revolving credit facility and the term loan will mature on April 28, 2020. The 2015 Credit Agreement continues to be secured by substantially all personal property assets of the Company and any domestic subsidiary guarantors. The proceeds of the term loan and the revolving credit facility will be used to finance ongoing working capital needs of the Company.

 

Immediately after the closing, the Company had outstanding $69.5 million of revolving loans, all of which initially bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.50%. The $75 million term loan also initially bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.50%. The interest rate spreads above LIBOR or the base rate are subject to adjustments based on the Company’s total leverage ratio, ranging from 1.50% to 2.25% in the case of loans bearing interest at LIBOR, and from 0.50% to 1.25% in the case of loans bearing interest at the base rate. In addition, a non-use fee is payable quarterly on the average unused credit line under the revolver ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum, based on the Company’s total leverage ratio.

 

The term loan will be repaid in installments of approximately $2.68 million per quarter starting on June 30, 2015, with the remaining balance due at maturity. The 2015 Credit Agreement contains customary limits and restrictions concerning investments, sales of assets, liens on assets, dividends and other payments. The two financial covenants included in the 2015 Credit Agreement are a maximum total leverage ratio of 3.00:1.00 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.50:1.00.

 

The events of default under the 2015 Credit Agreement include, but are not limited to, the following: failure to pay outstanding principal or interest, failure of applicable representations or warranties to be correct in any material respects, failure to perform any other term, covenant or agreement and such failure is not remedied after notice of such failure within the applicable grace period with respect thereto, if any, a cross-default with other debt in certain circumstances, certain defaults upon obligations under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act or bankruptcy. Such events of default would require the repayment of any outstanding borrowings and the termination of the right to borrow additional funds under the 2015 Credit Facility.

 

The foregoing description of the 2015 Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the actual agreement, which is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference into this Report.
