A&R Revolving Credit Facility Agreement Amendments
The A&R Revolving Credit Facility Agreement, which was amended to reflect the terms of the Term Loan Credit Facility, included (among other changes) a reduction in the borrowing base calculation to exclude Eligible Cash On Hand, the revision of the Cash Dominion Trigger Event threshold, and the deletion of the financial covenant, which was replaced with a requirement to maintain a minimum excess availability over the commitments in the revolving credit facility. These amendments aimed to promote financial stability and growth for the company.
ABL Credit Agreement Amendments and Financing Strategy
The recent amendments made to the ABL Credit Agreement allowed for the sale of the intellectual property related to the Vince brand as part of the Asset Sale. It also replaced LIBOR as an interest rate benchmark with Daily Simple SOFR, subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum, and increased the applicable margin in the loans under the ABL Credit Agreement. With these changes, Vince LLC continues to make adjustments to its financing strategy with the aim of optimizing growth and ensuring stability.
Strategic Financial Moves and Compliance
This series of strategic financial moves by Vince LLC illustrates the company’s effort to maintain compliance with applicable covenants while also actively managing its debt and ensuring access to the necessary funds for the business’s growth. As of now, the company is in compliance with applicable covenants, and a significant amount is available under the revolving credit facility, net of the Loan Cap. This leaves Vince LLC in a very strong position for the future.
Conclusion
