Exhibit 10.3
LOAN EXTENSION AND MODIFICATION AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT, (Agreement) made on November 30, 2011, at Canton, Ohio, by and among Magnetech Industrial Services, Inc. (Magnetech), an Indiana corporation, and MISCOR Group, Ltd. (MISCOR), an Indiana corporation, both with an address at 800 Nave Road, SE, Massillon, Ohio 44646 (collectively, Borrowers, and sometimes individually a Borrower) and BDeWees, Inc. (Lender), an Ohio corporation with an address at 6424 Selkirk Circle NW, Canton, Ohio 44718.
RECITALS:
A. On or about November 30, 2007, Borrowers and Lender closed on a transaction (the Transaction) in which, among other things, Borrowers became indebted, jointly and severally, to Lender in the amount of $2,000,000.00, as evidenced by Borrowers promissory note dated November 30, 2007, for the principal amount of $2,000,000.00, executed and delivered to Lender and payable to it or its order, which contained additional terms and provisions, which such note was amended and restated on December 1, 2010 (collectively, the Note).
B. Borrowers indebtedness to Lender as of the date hereof under all of the terms of the Note is $2,000,000.00, plus any interest accrued on the Note since Borrowers last payment of interest on the Note. Borrowers are not delinquent on payment of interest.
C. As used in this Agreement, the term Indebtedness will mean Borrowers indebtedness to Lender under the Second Amended Note (defined herein) including principal, interest, and all other amounts which Borrowers now and in the future may owe to Lender under the terms of the Second Amended Note together with any additional amounts Borrowers and either of them may owe now or in the future to Lender pursuant to the terms of any of the other documents the parties executed as a part of or in connection with the said closing of the Transaction or as a part of the Loan Modification (defined below), including this Agreement.
D. Borrowers wish to extend the time for Borrowers to repay the $2,000,000.00 presently owed to Lender in exchange for additional payments of principal, a first priority interest in certain collateral (subject to the prior interests of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (Wells Fargo), and certain other changes (the Loan Modification).
AGREEMENT:
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:
1
1. Incorporation of Recitals. All of the recitals set forth above, including the definitions, are incorporated herein by reference.
2. Second Amendment and Restatement of Note. The Note will be amended and restated as set forth in the form of the Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note, labeled as Exhibit A, attached and incorporated herein by reference (the Second Amended Note).
3. Continued Effect of Intercreditor Agreement and Cross-Default. XGen III, Ltd. (XGen), an Ohio limited liability company, was also a party to the Transaction in 2007, received its own promissory note from Borrowers, entered into a commercial security agreement to secure said note, and filed a UCC-1 financing statement, just like Lender. In order to memorialize their respective rights and obligations, Lender and XGen entered into an Intercreditor Agreement dated November 30, 2007 (the Intercreditor Agreement). All provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the Loan Modification; provided, however, that references in the Intercreditor Agreement to the BDeWees Note, the BDeWees Security Agreement, the XGen Note, and the XGen Security Agreement will now refer to, respectively, the Second Amended Note, the XGen Note as amended in connection with loan modifications identical to those for Lender (XGens own loan extension and modification agreement with Borrowers, which contains those identical modifications, will sometimes be referred to herein as the XGen Loan Modification) and the BDeWees Security Agreement and the XGen Security Agreement, respectively, as amended. Any default under any one of the following four documents the Second Amended Note, the BDeWees Security Agreement, as amended, the XGen Note as amended in connection with the XGen Loan Modification, and the XGen Security Agreement, as amended shall also constitute a default under the remaining three of those documents.
4. Special Repayments Expected to Reduce Principal Payments. As a part of the Loan Modifications, Borrowers and Lender further agree that Borrowers shall be required to make certain extra payments of principal to Lender on the Second Amended Note (each a Special Repayment) as follows:
(a) Scheduled Special Repayments. Borrowers shall make Special Repayments on the dates and in the amounts set forth below:
(i) November 30, 2011- $316,666;
(ii) December 29, 2011- $300,000; and
(iii) No later than June 30, 2012- $250,000.
In addition to the Special Payments set forth in this subsection (a), Borrowers shall make regularly scheduled payments as more fully set forth in the Second Amended Note.
2
(b) Additional Special Repayment. An additional Special Repayment shall be owed in the circumstances described below.
Change in Control. At any time there is a Change of Control (as defined in this paragraph) of a Borrower as a result of or contemporaneously with an exchange or issuance of securities to one or more persons, Borrowers will be required to pay the then remaining principal balance (plus all then accrued but unpaid interest) under the Second Amended Note. For purposes of this Agreement, the term Change in Control shall mean a situation (whether occasioned by issuance, sales, or transfers of a Borrowers securities or by any merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reorganization, or other transaction involving a Borrower) in which: (A) for Magnetech, MISCOR no longer holds record or beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of Magnetechs outstanding capital stock and/or no longer possesses the voting power to elect directly a majority of Magnetechs board of directors; and (B) for MISCOR, any person, company or organization, not a five percent (5%) or more shareholder as of the date of this Agreement, acquires record beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of MISCORs outstanding capital stock.
(c) Application and Effect of Special Repayment. Any Special Repayment shall be applied to reduce outstanding principal on the Second Amended Note; provided, however, that if Borrowers are at that time delinquent in any installment payment or other amount then owed under the Second Amended Note, the Special Repayment will be applied first to satisfy the delinquency and the balance, if any, will be applied to reduce outstanding principal. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Second Amended Note will be deemed to prevent or excuse any delinquency in making installment payments under the Second Amended Note, nor will any Special Repayment be deemed any type of prepayment of one or more monthly installment payments under the Second Amended Note. Except as expressly provided above in this subsection (iv), each Special Repayment shall be applied to principal payments in the inverse order of their due date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender acknowledges that payment of the foregoing Special Repayments shall be subject to the terms of a Subordination Agreement in favor of Wells Fargo.
5. Lenders Consent for Additional Indebtedness. Neither Borrower shall incur additional indebtedness in excess of the Permitted Indebtedness without the written consent of Lender given in advance which Lender may grant or withhold in the exercise of its sole discretion. For purposes of this Agreement the term Permitted Indebtedness shall mean (a)
3
amounts owed from time to time to Wells Fargo pursuant to its revolving and term loan facility (including any obligations pursuant to letters of credit issued thereunder) in the maximum aggregate amount of $6,000,000, (b) existing notes and capital leases with (i) Centier in the amount of $103,697, (ii) Freeman-Spicer in the amount of $100,671 and (iii) Visalia Equipment Lease in the amount of $868,279, (d) amounts owed to John A. Martell (Martell) in the amount of $2,078,841, (e) certain miscellaneous other capital leases in the amount of $18,778 and (f) indebtedness incurred for capital expenditures that do not exceed $100,000 in the aggregate per calendar year and is secured only by the capital asset acquired with the indebtedness.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither Borrower shall make any scheduled payment or prepayment of principal to Martell on account of loans or other extensions of credit or any other financial accommodations or payment to Martell (other than for reasonable compensation for services provided to a Borrower, including reasonable expenses), excepts as follows:
(A) | $316,666 payment of principal on November 30, 2011; |
