Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 17, 2020, Twin Disc, Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into a promissory note (the “Note”) evidencing an unsecured loan in the amount of $8,199,500 (the “Loan”) made to the Company under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The Loan to the Company is being made through BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”).

 

The Loan has a two-year term and bears interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments are deferred for six months. Beginning November 17, 2020, seven months from the date of the Note, the Company is required to make monthly payments of principal and interest to the Bank. Subject to certain notice requirements applicable if the Note is sold by the Bank, the Loan may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The Note matures on April 17, 2022. The Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, making materially false and misleading representations to the SBA or the Bank, or breaching the terms of the Loan documents. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, or filing suit and obtaining judgment against the Company.

 

Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payment of payroll costs and any payments of mortgage interest, rent, and utilities. The Company intends to use the Loan proceeds in accordance with PPP loan forgiveness requirements. However, no assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness for any portion of the Loan.

 

The above description of the Note is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

In connection with the Loan, the Company entered into an Amendment No. 4 to Credit Agreement (the “Fourth Amendment”) on April 17, 2020 that amends the Credit Agreement dated as of June 29, 2018 (the “Credit Agreement”) between the Company and the Bank. The Fourth Amendment: (1) permits the Company to incur indebtedness in the form of the Loan notwithstanding the Credit Agreement’s restrictions limiting the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness, and (2) provides that the Loan (to the extent that the Loan is forgiven) shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating financial covenants in the Credit Agreement (the “Covenants”). Any unforgiven portion of the Loan and the interest thereon will not be disregarded for purposes of calculating the Covenants.

 

 

 

The above description of the Fourth Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.03     Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above with respect to the Loan is incorporated herein by reference.
