DEBT AGREEMENT DEBT AGREEMENT

On February 5, 2018, the Company entered into the Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement (the “2018 Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association ("PNC"). The 2018 Credit Agreement provides for a term loan in an amount of $1,500,000 (the “Term Loan”) and a revolving line of credit up to a maximum of $4,500,000 (the “2018 Revolving Loan” and together with the Term Loan, the “Loans”). The proceeds of the Loans were used to pay off the Company's existing debt with CNH Finance Fund I, L.P., formerly known as SCM Specialty Finance Opportunities Fund, L.P. (“CNH”), and for general working capital purposes. The Term Loan is payable in consecutive monthly installments of $31,250 commencing March 1, 2018 and bears interest, at the election of the Company, at either the PNC base rate plus1% or 30, 60 or 90 day LIBOR rate plus 3.50%. All outstanding amounts under the 2018 Revolving Loan bear interest, at the election of the Company, at either the PNC base rate plus 0.25% or 30, 60 or 90 day LIBOR rate plus 2.75%, payable monthly in arrears. The Company is also required to pay a quarterly unused line fee and collateral management fee. The commitment under the 2018 Credit Agreement expires three years after the Closing Date. The Loans and all other amounts due and owing under the 2018 Credit Agreement and related documents are secured by a first priority perfected security interest in, and lien on, substantially all of the assets of the Company. Amounts available for borrowing under the Revolving Loan equal the lesser of the Borrowing Base (as defined below), and $4,500,000, in each case, as the same is reduced by the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Loan. “Borrowing Base” under the Credit Agreement means, generally, the amount equal to (i) 85% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable, plus (ii) 65% of the value of eligible inventory, less (iii) certain reserves. The 2018 Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants on the part of the Company, including a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.10 to 1.0. The 2018 Credit Agreement also provides for events of default, including failure to repay principal and interest when due and failure to perform or violation of the provisions or covenants of the agreement, as a result of which amounts due under the 2018 Credit Agreement may be accelerated. On the Closing Date, the Company borrowed the entire $1,500,000 Term Loan. These amounts were used, in part, to pay off the total amount due under the Company's Credit and Security Agreement with CNH .

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on February 8, 2018. The 2018 Credit Agreement contains a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.10 to 1.0 as of the end of each fiscal quarter measured on a rolling four quarter basis.   Although the Company was in compliance with this covenant as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company was not in compliance with this covenant as of the end of the second and third quarters of fiscal 2018 due to the Company's losses in those quarters, which constituted events of default under the 2018 Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the 2018 Credit Agreement, an event of default permits PNC to, among other things, terminate the agreement and accelerate any indebtedness outstanding thereunder.  PNC waived compliance with the financial covenant for the second and third quarters of fiscal 2018. In addition, on October 19, 2018, the 2018 Credit Agreement was amended to reset the commencement date of the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant to begin with the fiscal quarter ending November 30, 2018. For the quarter ending November 30, 2018, the covenant will be tested only for the fiscal quarter then ending; for the quarter ending February 28, 2019, the covenant will be tested for the two fiscal quarter periods ending; and for the quarter ending May 31, 2019, the covenant will be tested for the three fiscal quarter periods then ending. Thereafter, the covenant will be tested on a rolling four quarter basis. As of November 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with the covenant. As of November 30, 2018, there was $1,134,726 borrowed on the Revolving Loan and $1,218,750 borrowed on the Term Loan.

On December 4, 2015 (the “Closing Date”), CCA Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into the Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with SCM Specialty Finance Opportunities Funds, L.P., an affiliate of CNH Finance, L.P. The Credit Agreement provides for a line of credit up to a maximum of $5,500,000 (the “Revolving Loan”). The proceeds of the Revolving Loans were used to pay off the Company's existing debt with Capital Preservation Solutions, LLC and for general working capital purposes.

    

NOTE 7 - DEBT AGREEMENT (Continued)


Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, all outstanding amounts under the Revolving Loan bear interest at the 30 day LIBOR rate plus 6% per annum (currently in the aggregate, 6.21% per annum), payable monthly in arrears. The Company is also required to pay a monthly unused line fee and collateral management fee. The commitment under the Credit Agreement expires three years after the Closing Date. The Revolving Loan and all other amounts due and owing under the Credit Agreement and related documents are secured by a first priority perfected security interest in, and lien on, substantially all of the assets of the Company. Amounts available for borrowing under the Line of Credit equal the lesser of the Borrowing Base (as defined below), and $5,500,000, in each case, as the same is reduced by the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Line of Credit. “Borrowing Base” under the Loan Agreement means, generally, the amount equal to (i) 85% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable, plus (ii) 65% of the value of eligible inventory, less (iii) certain reserves. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants on the part of the Company, including a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.0 to 1.0. The Credit Agreement imposes an early termination fee and also provides for events of default, including failure to repay principal and interest when due and failure to perform or violation of the provisions or covenants of the agreement.

On the Closing Date, the Company drew $4,100,000 on the Revolving Loan. Of the amount drawn, $3,721,583 was used to pay the principal amount of $3,700,000 and accrued interest of $21,583 due under the Company's Loan Agreement with Capital Preservation Solutions, LLC described below. The balance of the funds drawn were used to pay certain fees and expenses related to entering into the Credit Agreement, with a balance of $46,032 remitted to the Company.
On September 5, 2014, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Capital Preservation Solutions, LLC (“Capital”) for a $5,000,000 working capital line of credit and a term loan for working capital purposes not to exceed $1,000,000. The line of credit and term loan had an interest rate of 6% and matured on December 5, 2015. The line of credit and term loan with Capital were paid in full on December 4, 2015 as described above. The advances made under these loan agreements were subject to a borrowing base calculation that included 80% of the eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of the value of the eligible inventory. All amounts outstanding under these agreements were secured by a first priority security interest in all of the assets of the Company. Capital is owned by Lance Funston, the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, who is also the managing partner of Capital Preservation Holdings, LLC, which owns 19,958 shares of the Company's common stock and all of the Class A common stock. Accordingly, the line of credit and term loan interest expense and cash flow activities are shown, respectively, on the consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows as from a related party.
Contemporaneously with the signing of the Agreement, the Company issued a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (the “Warrant”) to Capital whereby Capital may acquire upon exercise of the Warrant 1,892,744 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the exercise period which is five years from the date of the Warrant. The Warrant bears a purchase price of $3.17 per share, subject to adjustments. The value of the Agreement was allocated to the relative fair values of the Loan and Security Agreement and Warrant, resulting in an allocation of value to the Warrant of $1,456,400, which was recorded on the financial statements as additional paid-in capital as of September 5, 2014, with an asset of $1,213,667 recorded as deferred financing fees and a reduction of Term Loan-Related Party of $242,733 recorded as debt discount. The deferred financing fees and related debt discount were fully amortized as of November 30, 2015. At closing, the Company executed a warrant agreement that was exercisable into a variable number of shares. The term was not consistent with the terms agreed to with the lender. The Warrant was corrected in January 2015. The Company has accounted for the transaction as if the corrected Warrant agreement was issued at closing.
