JOINDER AGREEMENT,

SECOND AMENDMENT AND SUPPLEMENT  

TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT

 

THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT, SECOND AMENDMENT AND SUPPLEMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is made and entered into this 13th day of November, 2007, by and among REMINGTON ARMS COMPANY, INC., a Delaware corporation and successor by merger to RA Factors, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as the existing borrower (“Remington”); and RA BRANDS, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Brands”), as the new borrower (Remington and Brands hereafter referred to as “Borrowers”, and each individually as a “Borrower”); WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association with an office at 301 South College Street, Charlotte, North Carolina 28288, in its capacity as administrative and collateral agent (together with its successors in such capacity, “Agent”) for various financial institutions (“Lenders”); and such Lenders.

 

Recitals:

Agent, Lenders and Remington are parties to a certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated March 15, 2006, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 31, 2007 (as at any time amended, restated, modified or supplemented, the “Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which Agent and Lenders have made certain revolving credit loans to Remington.

Remington has requested that Agent and Lenders agree to permit a single proposed Acquisition by Remington or any of its Subsidiaries occurring on or before January 31, 2008 in addition to those acquisitions currently constituting Permitted Acquisitions under the Credit Agreement.

Remington has also requested that Agent and Lenders increase the Revolver Commitments and provide to Borrowers a term loan based on the value of Remington’s and Brands’ intellectual property rights. In connection with the requested term loan, Remington has requested that the current guarantor, Brands, be joined as a “Borrower” under the Credit Agreement. Agent and Lenders are willing to amend the definition of “Permitted Acquisition”, increase the Revolver Commitments, provide a term loan, and give effect to the joinder of Brands as a Borrower under the Credit Agreement, in each case on the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment.

Brands is executing this Amendment to become a party to the Credit Agreement and in order to induce Agent and Lenders to extend additional credit under the Credit Agreement.

The parties now desire to join Brands as a Borrower, and amend and supplement the Credit Agreement as hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, for TEN DOLLARS ($10.00) in hand paid and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby severally acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1.           Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

 



 

2.           Joinder of New Borrower. By its signature below and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, Brands becomes a Borrower under the Credit Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Borrower, and Brands hereby agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement applicable to it as a Borrower thereunder. Each reference to “Borrower” or “Borrowers” in the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to include Brands. Upon the effectiveness of the joinder of Brands to the Loan Agreement, Brands shall be directly and primarily liable as a Borrower for all of the Obligations now or hereafter owing under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and concurrently therewith, Brands shall without further action cease to constitute a Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to such Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents. The Obligations owing by Brands shall henceforth be evidenced by the Credit Agreement and the Notes and the Subsidiary Guaranty previously executed by Brands shall be released and of no further force or effect. The parties hereto agree to execute and deliver such instruments, assignments or documents as are necessary under Applicable Law to give effect to or carry out the intent and purposes of the joinder of Brands as a Borrower and concurrent cessation of Brands as a separate Subsidiary Guarantor.

3.           Joint and Several Liability; Borrowers’ Representative. Brands acknowledges that it has requested Agent and Lenders to extend financial accommodations to it and to the other Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, as hereby amended. In accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, Brands acknowledges and agrees that it shall be jointly and severally liable for any and all Loans and other Obligations heretofore or hereafter made by Agent and Lenders to Brands or any of the other Borrowers and for all interest, fees and other charges payable in connection therewith. Brands shall be liable for, on a joint and several basis, the timely payment by the other Borrowers of, all of the Loans and the other Obligations, regardless of which Borrower actually may have received the proceeds of any Loans or other extensions of credit hereunder or the amount of such Loans received or the manner in which Agent or any Lender accounts for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records, it being acknowledged and agreed that Loans to one Borrower inure to the mutual benefit of all Borrowers and that Agent and Lenders are relying on the joint and several liability of Borrowers in extending the Loans and other financial accommodations hereunder. Brands hereby irrevocably appointsRemington, and Remington agrees to act under the Credit Agreement as, the agent and representative of itself and Brands for all purposes under the Credit Agreement, including requesting Borrowings, selecting whether any Loan or portion thereof is to bear interest as a Base Rate Loan or a Euro-Dollar Loan, and receiving account statements and other notices and communications to Borrowers (or either of them) from Agent. Agent may rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, on any Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Conversion/Continuation, disbursement instructions, reports, information, Borrowing Base Certificate or any other notice or communication made or given by Remington, whether in its own name, on behalf of any Borrower or on behalf of “the Borrowers”.

4.           Amendments to Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8 of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(a)        By deleting the definitions of “Applicable Margin”, “Borrower and Borrowers”, “Default Rate”, “Formula Amount”, “Inventory Formula Amount”, “Loan”, “Minimum Availability Condition”, “Notes”, “Pro Rata”and “Revolver Commitment” contained in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement and by substituting in lieu thereof the following:

 

 

-2-

 



 

 

Applicable Margin - a percentage determined on the Second Amendment Date by reference to the immediately preceding Pricing Determination Date and on each Pricing Adjustment Date thereafter, the Applicable Margin shall be increased or decreased, based upon Average Excess Availability for the Fiscal Quarter ending on such Pricing Determination Date, as set forth in the table below (but decreased only if on the relevant Pricing Determination Date no Default or Event of Default exists):

Tier

Average Excess Availability

Applicable Margin for Euro-Dollar Loans

Applicable Margin for

Base Rate Loans

I

Less than $22,000,000

2.00%

0.50%

II

Equal to or greater than $22,000,000 but less than $33,000,000

1.75%

0.25%

III

Equal to or greater than $33,000,000 but less than $44,000,000

1.25%

- 0.25%

V

Equal to or greater than $55,000,000

1.00%

- 0.50%

 

Any such increase or reduction in the Applicable Margin shall be effective on the first day of the Fiscal Quarter following Agent’s receipt of the applicable financial statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate (each a “Pricing Adjustment Date”). If the financial statements and the Compliance Certificate of Borrowers setting forth Average Excess Availability for the applicable period are not received by Agent by the date required pursuant to Section  10.1.3 of this Agreement, the Applicable Margin shall be determined as if Average Excess Availability is less than $22,000,000 until such time as such financial statements and Compliance Certificate are received and any Event of Default resulting from a failure to timely deliver such financial statements or Compliance Certificate is waived in writing by Agent and Lenders in their sole discretion; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent Agent and Lenders from charging interest at the Default Rate for so long as an Event of Default exists. In the event that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered by Borrowers is shown to be inaccurate (whether such inaccuracy is discovered at any time during the effectiveness of this Agreement or up to six months thereafter), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) Borrowers

shall immediately deliver to Agent a correct Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period shall be deemed to be the Applicable Margin that would have been in effect for such Applicable Period had the financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered by Borrowers not contained the inaccuracy, and (iii) Borrowers shall immediately pay to Agent the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Neither the recalculation of the Applicable Margin for such an Applicable Period, nor the payment by Borrowers of the accrued additional interest required hereunder, shall limit the rights of Agent and Lenders with respect to their ability to charge interest at the Default Rate, or to declare any Event of Default or exercise any of their remedies during the existence of such an Event of Default.

 

Borrower and Borrowers - shall mean each of (a) Remington, (b) on and after the Second Amendment Date, Brands, and (c) any other entity which becomes a borrower under this Agreement from time to time pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent and approved by Remington.

 

Default Rate - on any date, a rate per annum that is equal to (i) in the case of each Revolver Loan outstanding on such date and the principal balance of Term Loans outstanding on such date, 2% in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to such Loans on such date, and (ii) in the case of any other Obligations outstanding on such date, 3.25% in excess of the Alternate Base Rate in effect on such date.

 

Formula Amount - on any date of determination thereof, an amount equal to the lesser of (a) (i) the sum of the Inventory Formula Amount and the Accounts Formula Amount on such date, minus (ii) the Availability Reserve on such date, or (b) the sum of (i) the amount on such date that constitutes “Permitted Indebtedness” under clause (i) of the definition of that term in the New Senior Notes Indenture as in effect on January 24, 2003 plus (ii) the amount of Obligations that Borrowers would be permitted to incur hereunder on such date under clause (xiv) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” without causing a breach or violation of the New Senior Notes Indenture as in effect on January 24, 2003, minus (iii) the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan on such date.

 

Inventory Formula Amount - on any date of determination thereof, an amount equal to the least of (i) $77,500,000, (ii) the sum derived by multiplying the Applicable Inventory Percentage by the Value of Eligible Inventory consisting of Finished Goods and the Applicable Inventory Percentage by the Value of Eligible Inventory consisting of Raw Materials, or (iii) the Appraised NOLV as of such date.

Loan - all or any portion of a Revolver Loan or a Term Loan Advance (and each Base Rate Loan and Euro-Dollar Loan comprising such Loan).

(e)        By deleting Section 3.1 of the Credit Agreement and by substituting in lieu thereof the following:

 

3.1

Interest.

3.1.1       Rates of Interest. Borrowers agree to jointly and severally pay interest in respect of all unpaid principal amounts of the Revolver Loans from the respective dates such principal amounts are advanced until paid (whether at stated maturity, on acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the applicable rate indicated below:

 

(i)         for Revolver Loans made or outstanding as Base Rate Loans, the Applicable Margin plus the Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time; or

 

(ii)        for Revolver Loans made or outstanding as Euro-Dollar Loans, the Applicable Margin plus the relevant Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate for the applicable Interest Period selected by each Borrower in conformity with this Agreement.

 

Borrowers agree to jointly and severally pay interest in respect of all unpaid principal amounts outstanding with respect to Term Loan Advances from the respective dates such principal amounts are advanced until paid (whether at stated maturity, on acceleration, or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the applicable rate indicated below:

 

-10-

 



 

 

(i)         for any portion of the Term Loan Advances made or outstanding as Base Rate Loans, 0.50% plus the Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time; or

 

(ii)          for any portion of the Term Loan Advances made or outstanding as Euro-Dollar Loans, 2.00% plus the relevant Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate for the applicable Interest Period selected by Borrowers in conformity with this Agreement.

Upon determining the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate for any Interest Period requested by Borrowers, Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers thereof by telephone and, if so requested by Borrowers, confirmed in writing. Such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on all parties and for all purposes. The applicable rate of interest for all Loans bearing interest based upon the Alternate Base Rate shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, by an amount equal to any increase or decrease in the Alternate Base Rate, with such adjustments to be effective as of the opening of business on the day that any such change in the Alternate Base Rate becomes effective. Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date on which such Loan is made, converted to a Loan of another Type or continued as a Euro-Dollar Loan to (but excluding) the date of any repayment thereof; provided, however, that, if a Loan is repaid on the same day made, one day’s interest shall be paid on such Revolver Loan. The Alternate Base Rate on the Closing Date was 7.50% per annum and, therefore, the rate of interest in effect hereunder on the Closing Date, expressed in simple interest terms, was 8.00% per annum with respect to any portion of the Revolver Loans bearing interest as a Base Rate Loan. The Alternate Base Rate on the Second Amendment Date is 7.25% per annum and, therefore, the rate of interest in effect hereunder on the date hereof, expressed in simple interest terms, is 6.75% per annum with respect to any portion of the Revolver Loans bearing interest as a Base Rate Loan and is 7.75% per annum with respect to any portion of the Term Loan Advances bearing interest as a Base Rate Loan.

5.3.3     Mandatory Prepayments. In addition to Borrowers’ obligation to pay the entire amount of the Obligations upon the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers shall also be required to prepay the Term Loan Advances (and, after payment in full thereof, the remaining Obligations then outstanding as provided in Section 5.3.5), as follows:

5.3.4     Optional Prepayments of Term Loan Advances. Borrowers may, at their option, prepay any portion of the Term Loan Advances consisting of Base Rate Loans in whole at any time or in part from time to time, in amounts aggregating $1,000,000 or any greater integral multiple of $100,000, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with interest accrued or unpaid thereon to the date of prepayment. Any portion of the Term Loan Advances consisting of Euro-Dollar Loans may be prepaid, at Borrowers’ option, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, in amounts aggregating $1,000,000 or any greater integral multiple of $100,000, together with any applicable charges pursuant to Section 3.10 , and interest accrued or unpaid thereon to the date of prepayment.

5.3.5     Application of Prepayments.

(i)         Except as otherwise provided in Section  5.6, each mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section  5.3.3 shall be remitted by Borrowers to Agent for application (i)  first to accrued interest and principal due under the Term Notes, ratably, with amounts applied to principal installments to be applied in the inverse order of maturities until payment in full thereof; and (ii)  second, unless otherwise directed or agreed in writing by Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders), to repay the principal balance of Revolver Loans outstanding (provided that any application of such prepayments to the Revolver Loans shall, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders), automatically result in a corresponding permanent reduction of the Revolver Commitments). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Permitted Asset Disposition of Equipment or Intellectual Property includes the sale or other disposition of Accounts or Inventory then a portion of the Net Disposition Proceeds equal to the greater of (x) the net book value of such Accounts and Inventory or (y) the amount of the reduction in the Borrowing Base immediately after giving effect to such sale or other disposition of Accounts or Inventory, as the case may be, shall be promptly remitted to Agent for application to the Revolver Loans (with the application of any such prepayments to the Revolver Loans to result in a corresponding permanent reduction of the Revolver Commitments, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders)).

Each Lender shall apply the portion of a prepayment that is to be applied to principal installments first to outstanding Base Rate Loans and then to any outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans with the shortest Interest Periods remaining; but if application to any Euro-Dollar Loans would cause the same to be paid prior to the end of an applicable Interest Period, then, by prior written notice to Agent, Borrowers may elect as to such Euro-Dollar Loan to deliver cash to Agent in the amount of the required prepayment, to be held by Agent as Cash Collateral until the end of the applicable Interest

EXHIBIT A-1

 

FORM OF SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVER NOTE

 

U.S. $__________.__

______________, 20__

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, REMINGTON ARMS COMPANY, INC., a Delaware corporation, and RA BRANDS, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (individually, a “Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”), hereby unconditionally, and jointly and severally, promise to pay to the order of (herein, together with any subsequent holder hereof, called the “Holder”) the principal sum of $_______________ or such lesser sum as may constitute Holder’s Pro Rata share of the outstanding principal amount of all Revolver Loans pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement (as defined below) on the date on which such outstanding principal amounts become due and payable pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement, in strict accordance with the terms thereof. Borrowers likewise unconditionally, and jointly and severally, promise to pay to Holder interest from and after the date hereof on Lender’s Pro Rata share of the outstanding principal amount of Revolver Loans at such interest rates, payable at such times, and computed in such manner as are specified in Section  3.1 of the Credit Agreement, in strict accordance with the terms thereof.

This Second Amended and Restated Revolver Note (“Note”) is issued pursuant to, and is one of the “Revolver Notes” referred to in, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated March 15, 2006 (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Borrowers, the financial institutions from time to time parties thereto as lenders (“Lenders”), Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Administrative and Collateral Agent for Lenders (in such capacity, “Agent”), Bank of America, N.A. as Syndication Agent, and National City Business Credit, Inc. as Documentation Agent, and Holder is and shall be entitled to all benefits thereof and of all Credit Documents executed and delivered in connection therewith. All capitalized terms used herein, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

The repayment of the principal balance of this Note shall be made in the manner and to the extent stated in Section  5.2 of the Credit Agreement. The entire unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest on this Note shall be due and payable immediately upon the Commitment Termination Date.

All payments of principal and interest shall be made in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds as specified in the Credit Agreement.

Upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default exists, the principal balance and all accrued interest of this Note may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Credit Agreement, and the unpaid principal balance hereof shall bear interest at the Default Rate as and when provided in Section  3.1.5 of the Credit Agreement. Borrowers agree to pay, and save Holder harmless against any liability for the payment of, all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, if this Note is collected by or through an attorney-at-law.

All principal amounts of Revolver Loans made by Holder to Borrowers pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be deemed outstanding under this Note and shall continue to be owing by Borrowers until paid in accordance with the terms of this Note and the Credit Agreement.

 



 

In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of money advanced hereunder exceed the highest lawful rate permissible under any law which a court of competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto; and, in the event of any such payment inadvertently paid by a Borrower or inadvertently received by Holder, such excess sum shall be, at such Borrower’s option, returned to such Borrower forthwith or credited as a payment of principal, but shall not be applied to the payment of interest. It is the intent hereof that Borrowers not pay or contract to pay, and that Holder not receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by Borrowers under Applicable Law.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, REMINGTON ARMS COMPANY, INC., a Delaware corporation, and RA BRANDS, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (individually, a “Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”), hereby unconditionally, and jointly and severally, promise to pay to the order of WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (herein, together with any subsequent holder hereof, called “Wachovia”) the principal sum of $10,000,000 or such lesser sum as may constitute the outstanding principal amount of all Settlement Loans pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement (as defined below) on the date on which such outstanding principal amounts become due and payable pursuant to the Credit Agreement, in strict accordance with the terms thereof. Borrowers likewise unconditionally, and jointly and severally, promise to pay to Wachovia interest from and after the date hereof on the outstanding principal amount of Settlement Loans at such interest rates, payable at such times, and computed in such manner as are specified in Section  3.1 of the Credit Agreement, in strict accordance with the terms thereof.

This Third Amended and Restated Settlement Note (“Note”) is issued pursuant to, and is the “Settlement Note” referred to in, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated March 15, 2006 (as the same may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented, from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Borrowers, the financial institutions from time to time parties thereto as lenders (“Lenders”), Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Administrative and Collateral Agent for Lenders (in such capacity, “Agent”), Bank of America, N.A. as Syndication Agent, and National City Business Credit, Inc. as Documentation Agent, and Wachovia is and shall be entitled to all benefits thereof and of all Credit Documents executed and delivered in connection therewith.

Agent may, at its option, enforce its rights against any Collateral securing this Note without enforcing its rights against any Borrower, any Guarantor of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or any other property or indebtedness due or to become due to Borrowers. Each Borrower agrees that, without releasing or impairing such Borrower’s liability hereunder, Agent or Holder may at any time release, surrender, substitute or exchange any Collateral securing this Note and may at any time release any party primarily or secondarily liable for the indebtedness evidenced by this Note.

The rights of Wachovia and obligations of Borrowers hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws (without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof other than Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law) of the State of New York.
