| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On July 19, 2022, TransAct Technologies Incorporated (the “Company”) and Siena Lending Group LLC (the “Lender”) entered into Amendment No. 2 (the “Credit Facility Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of March 13, 2020, between the Lender and the Company, as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of July 21, 2021, between the Lender and the Company (such Loan and Security Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Credit Facility Amendment, the “Existing Loan Agreement” and, as amended by the Credit Facility Amendment, the “Amended Loan Agreement”). Also on July 19, 2022, the Company and the Lender entered into an Amended and Restated Fee Letter (the “Amended Fee Letter”) in connection with the Amended Loan Agreement. The Amended Loan Agreement did not modify the aggregate amount of the revolving commitment or the interest rate applicable to the loans.
The changes to the Existing Loan Agreement provided for in the Credit Facility Amendment include, among other things, the following:
| (i) | The extension of the maturity date from March 13, 2023 to March 13, 2025; and |
| (ii) | The termination of the existing blocked account control agreement and entry into a new “springing” deposit account control agreement, permitting the Company to direct the use of funds in its deposit account until such time as (a) the sum of excess availability under the Amended Loan Agreement and unrestricted cash is less than $5 million for 3 consecutive business days or (b) an event of default under the Amended Loan Agreement occurs and is continuing. |
In addition, the Amended Fee Letter requires the Company, while it retains the ability to direct the use of funds in the deposit account, to maintain outstanding borrowings of at least $2,250,000 in principal amount. If the Company does not have the ability to direct the use of funds in the deposit account, then the Amended Fee Letter requires the Company to pay interest on at least $2,250,000 principal amount of loans, whether or not such amount of loans is actually outstanding.
Copies of the Credit Facility Amendment and the Amended Fee Letter are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions of the Credit Facility Amendment and the Amended Fee Letter do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Facility Amendment and the Amended Fee Letter.

Terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement defined below.
RECITALS
A. Lender and Borrower have previously entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of March 13, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of July 21, 2021 (the “First Amendment”) (as further amended, modified and supplemented from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which Lender has made certain loans and financial accommodations available to Borrower.
B. Borrower has requested that Lender amend certain terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement as set forth herein.
C. Borrower is entering into this Amendment with the understanding and agreement that, except as specifically provided herein, none of Lender’s rights or remedies as set forth in the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document is being waived or modified by the terms of this Amendment.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Amendments to Loan Agreement. As of the effective date of this Amendment, the Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
(a) Section 4.1. Section 4.1 of the Loan Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
4.1 Lock Boxes and Blocked Accounts. Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants that all Deposit Accounts and all other depositary and other accounts maintained by each Loan Party as of the Closing Date are described in Section 39 of the Information Certificate(s), which description includes for each such account the name of the Loan Party maintaining such account, the name, of the financial institution at which such account is maintained, the account number, and the purpose of such account. After the Closing Date, no Loan Party shall open any new Deposit Accounts or any other depositary or other accounts without the prior written consent of Lender and without updating Section 39 of the Information Certificate(s) to reflect such Deposit Accounts or other accounts, as applicable. No Deposit Accounts or other accounts of any Loan Party shall at any time constitute a Restricted Account other than accounts expressly indicated on Section 39 of the Information Certificate(s) as being a Restricted Account (and each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants that each such account shall at all times meet the requirements set forth in the definition of Restricted Account to qualify as a Restricted Account). Each Loan Party will, at its expense, establish (and revise from time to time as Lender may require) procedures acceptable to Lender, in Lender’s Permitted Discretion, for the collection of checks, wire transfers and all other proceeds of all of such Loan Party’s Accounts and other Collateral (“Collections”), which shall include (a) directing all Account Debtors to send all Account proceeds directly to a post office box designated by Lender either in the name of such Loan Party (but as to which Lender has exclusive access) or, at Lender’s option, in the name of Lender (a “Lock Box”), and/or (b) depositing all Collections received by such Loan Party into one or more bank accounts maintained in the name of such Loan Party or, at Lender’s option, in the name of Lender (each, a “Blocked Account”) and/or (c) a combination of the foregoing. Each Loan Party agrees to execute, and to cause its depository banks and other account holders to execute, such Lock Box and Blocked Account control agreements and other documentation as Lender shall require from time to time in connection with the foregoing, all in form and substance acceptable to Lender. As of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, Lender has exclusive access to the Blocked Account. Lender agrees to release such exclusive access upon execution and delivery of a “springing” deposit account control agreement by the depository bank where the Blocked Account is maintained, in form and substance acceptable to Lender and which provides, among other things, that upon receipt of a notice from Lender (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”), the depository bank will only comply with instructions originated by Lender directing the disposition of the funds in the Blocked Account and will not honor any request or direction from any officer or other representative of Borrower to direct disposition of funds in the Blocked Account, withdraw any amount from the Blocked Account or otherwise with respect to the Blocked Account. Lender agrees that the form of deposit account control agreement attached as Exhibit A to Amendment No. 2 is acceptable as a “springing” deposit account control agreement. Once the “springing” deposit account control agreement has been implemented, Lender agrees not to issue a Notice of Exclusive Control with respect to the Lock Box and Blocked Account unless a Cash Dominion Event has occurred. Any event such arrangements and documents must be in place on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date with respect to accounts in existence on such date, or prior to any such account being opened with respect to any such account opened after the date hereof, in each case excluding Restricted Accounts. At the request of Lender, each Loan Party shall provide Lender with online read-only access to such Loan Party’s Deposit Accounts and maintain such access in effect for Lender throughout the term of this Agreement and until all Obligations have been paid in full, all in a manner acceptable to Lender in its Permitted Discretion. Prior to the Closing Date, Borrowing Agent shall deliver to Lender a complete and executed Authorized Accounts form regarding Borrowers’ operating account(s) into which the proceeds of Loans are to be paid in the form of Exhibit D annexed hereto.
| 2 |
(b) Section 4.7. The third sentence in Section 4.7 of the Loan Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Such inspections and examinations shall be at Borrowers’ expense and the charge therefor shall be $1,200 per person per day, plus out-of-pocket expenses; provided, that Lender shall conduct such field inspections and examinations no more frequently than once per Fiscal Quarter and Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay more than $15,000 per Fiscal Year for costs and expenses relating to field examinations; provided further, however, that the foregoing limitations on the frequency of and on Borrowers’ obligation to pay for costs and expenses relating to field inspections and examinations shall not apply to costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) the field examination conducted prior to the Closing Date, (ii) any field examination conducted in connection with a Permitted Acquisition, or (iii) any field examination commenced while an Event of Default exists.
(c) Section 4.8. Section 4.8 of the Loan Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
4.8 Appraisals. Each Loan Party will permit Lender and each of its representatives or agents to conduct appraisals and valuations of the Collateral at such times and intervals as Lender may designate. Such appraisals and valuations shall be at Borrowers’ expense; provided, that Borrowers shall only be required to reimburse Lender for up to one (1) appraisal and valuation in any Fiscal Year plus any additional appraisals and valuations that are conducted during the existence of an Event of Default.
(d) Schedule A. Section 6 of Schedule A to the Loan Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
6. Scheduled Maturity Date: March 13, 2025
(e) Schedule B. Schedule B to the Loan Agreement is amended by the addition, in alphabetical order, or by the amendment and restatement, as applicable, of the following definitions to read in their entirety as follows:

Capitalized words used, but not specifically defined, herein shall have the meaning provided for such terms in the Loan Agreement. References herein to “Sections” or “Schedules” shall be to Sections of or Schedules to the Loan Agreement unless otherwise specifically provided. References herein to “paragraphs” shall be to paragraphs of this letter agreement.
In consideration of the willingness of Lender to enter into Amendment No. 2, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender the following fees:
(a) Amendment Fee. A fee equal to $25,000 (the “Amendment Fee”). The full amount of the Amendment Fee shall be deemed to be fully earned and due and payable in full on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date.
(b) Collateral Monitoring Fee. A fee equal to $120,000 (the “Collateral Monitoring Fee”). A portion of the Collateral Monitoring Fee, in an amount equal to $72,000, was fully earned on the Closing Date; as of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date $14,000 remains outstanding. A portion of the Collateral Monitoring Fee, in an amount equal to $48,000, shall be deemed fully earned on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date.
The unpaid balance of the Collateral Monitoring Fee as of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, in an amount equal to $62,000, shall continue to paid as follows: (i) equal payments of $2,000 on the first day of each month, commencing with the first day of the calendar month immediately following the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date and (ii) the remaining amount of the Collateral Monitoring Fee (if any) shall be paid in full on the Maturity Date.
(c) Unused Line Fee. An unused line fee equal to 0.50% per annum of the amount by which (i) the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount, calculated without giving effect to any Reserves, if any, applied to the Maximum Revolving Facility Amount, exceeds (ii) the average daily outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Balance during the immediately preceding month (or part thereof), which each such monthly fee shall be deemed to be fully earned and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month until the Termination Date.
(d) Letter of Credit Fees. A fee equal to 1.75% plus the Base Rate per annum of the face amount of each Letter of Credit, which each such fee shall be deemed to be fully earned and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month until the Termination Date, plus all costs and fees charged from time to time by the issuer, payable as and when such costs and fees are charged.
(e) Early Payment/Termination Premium. In the event that for any reason (including without limitation as a result of any voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Loans, any acceleration of the Loans resulting from an Event of Default, any foreclosure and sale of Collateral, or any sale of Collateral in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) (i) all or any portion of Lender’s commitment to make Revolving Loans is terminated prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date, in each case pursuant to Section 1.8(e), Section 7.2 or otherwise, then in each such case, in addition to the payment of the subject principal amount and all unpaid accrued interest and other amounts due thereon, Borrower immediately shall be required to pay to Lender an early payment/termination premium (an “Early Payment/Termination Premium”) (as liquidated damages and compensation for the cost of Lender being prepared to make funds available under the Loan Agreement with respect to such Loans during the scheduled term of the Loan Agreement) in an amount equal to the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) of the amount of any such Revolving Loan commitment termination. With respect to any such event, the “Applicable Percentage” shall be (i) 2.00%, if such event occurs on or before March 13, 2023, (ii) 1.00% if such event occurs after March 13, 2023, but on or before March 13, 2024, or (iii) 0% if such event occurs after March 14, 2024. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (x) the provisions of this paragraph shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any rescission by Lender of an acceleration with respect to all or any portion of the Obligations pursuant to Section 7.2 or otherwise, (y) payment of any Early Payment/Termination Premium under this paragraph constitutes liquidated damages and not a penalty and (z) the actual amount of damages to Lender or profits lost by Lender as a result of such early payment or termination would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain, and the Early Payment/Termination Premium under this paragraph is provided by mutual agreement of Borrower and Lender as a reasonable estimation and calculation of such lost profits or damages of Borrower and Lender.
(f) Minimum Loan Balance; Minimum Borrowing Fee.
(i) Borrower shall not permit the outstanding principal balance of Revolving Loans to be less than $2,250,000 at any time, unless Lender shall have exclusive access to the Blocked Account pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Loan Agreement.
(ii) If, at any time Lender has exclusive access to the Blocked Account pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Loan Agreement, the outstanding principal balance of Revolving Loans is less than $2,250,000, Borrower shall pay to Lender a minimum borrowing fee (the “Minimum Borrowing Fee”) equal to the excess, if any, of (x) interest which would have been payable in respect of each month if, at all times during such month, the principal balance of the Revolving Loans was equal to $2,250,000 over (y) the actual interest payable in respect of such month on the Revolving Loans, which each such fee shall be deemed to be fully earned as of the last day of each such month and payable on the first day of the first month following the end of such period until the Termination Date.
The fees described in paragraphs (a) through (f) above are referred to herein collectively as the “Fees.” Nothing contained in this letter agreement shall amend, alter or change any of the terms, covenants and provisions contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, any provision governing the payment of any other fees by Borrower to Lender. The Fees shall be payable in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to Lender and in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. Once paid, the Fees shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
| 2 |
This letter agreement is a Loan Document and is the “Fee Letter” referred to in the Loan Agreement. This letter agreement amends and restates that certain Fee Letter dated March 13, 2020 made by Borrower in favor of the Lender (the “March 2020 Fee Letter”); provided, however, that no fees previously earned by Lender and no fees previously paid by Borrower pursuant to the March 2020 Fee Letter shall be subject to refund for any reason and this letter agreement does not relieve the Borrower from its obligation to pay any fees owing, but unpaid, as of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date.
It is understood and agreed that this letter agreement shall not constitute or give rise to any obligation to provide any financing; such an obligation will arise only under the Loan Agreement in accordance with its terms. This letter agreement is binding upon Borrower and Lender and may not be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified, except by an instrument in writing signed by Lender and Borrower. This letter agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Lender is entitled to rely on this letter agreement in connection with the Loan Agreement. Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, incurred in connection with the collection or enforcement of any terms of this letter agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this letter agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this letter agreement. This letter agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Any right to trial by jury with respect to any claim or action arising out of this letter agreement or conduct in connection with this letter agreement is hereby waived.
