9. Senior Bank Loan, Security and Guarantee Agreement

On May 14, 2021, the Company and its subsidiaries entered a Loan, Security and Guaranty Agreement for a $20 million asset-based senior secured revolving credit facility with CIT Bank, N.A. The CIT Facility is collateralized by 100% of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries who are co-borrowers and/or guarantors. The CIT Facility matures on the fifth anniversary of the closing date (May 14, 2026).

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding borrowings and $12,434 available for borrowing under the terms of the CIT Facility. The Company also had $446 in unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the CIT Facility. The amortization expense of these debt costs totaled $38 for the three-month periods and $115 for the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Under the CIT Facility, advances will be subject to a borrowing base formula that is computed based on 85% of eligible accounts receivable of the Company and subsidiaries as defined in the CIT Facility, and subject to certain other criteria, conditions, and applicable reserves, including any additional eligibility requirements as determined by the administrative agent. The CIT Facility is subject to usual and customary covenants and events of default for credit facilities of this type. The interest rate, at the Company’s election, was based on either the Base Rate, as defined, plus the applicable margin; or the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), or any successor thereto, for the applicable interest period, subject to a 1% floor, plus the applicable margin.

On May 18, 2023, the Company entered into a Consent and Amendment No. 1 to the Loan and Security and Guarantee Agreement (the “Amendment”), by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company as Borrowers, the Guarantors, the financial institutions party to the agreement from time to time as the Lenders, and CIT BANK, a division of First-Citizen Bank & Trust Company (successor by merger to CIT Bank, N.A.), as Agent for the Lenders. Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Amendment, CIT, and Lenders consented to the Company’s previously announced 2023 Stock Repurchase Program (as defined in the Amendment), which program will continue through December 31, 2023; provided that (i) the aggregate amount paid for all such repurchase transactions shall not exceed $20,000,000, and (ii) no Default or Event of Default (as defined in the Amendment) exists or would exist after giving effect to each repurchase transaction consummated thereunder. In addition, effective as of the date of the Amendment, the London interbank offered rate, LIBOR, is no longer used as a benchmark rate or otherwise operative within the Amendment and was replaced with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, SOFR, as well as other conforming changes. In addition to interest costs on advances outstanding, the CIT Facility will provide an unused line fee ranging from 0.37% to 0.50% depending on the amount of undrawn credit, original issue discount and certain fees for diligence, implementation, and administration. The unused line fees incurred and included in interest expense totaled $25 for both the three-month periods and $76 for both the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
