Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 29, 2021 (the "Closing Date"), Weis Markets, Inc.; Dutch Valley Food Company, LLC; Weis Transportation, LLC and WMK Financing, Inc. (collectively, the "Company") entered into an Amendment to Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement"), which amends the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated September 1, 2016 and previously amended on August 21, 2019 with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "Lender"). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility with an aggregate principal amount not to exceed thirty million dollars ($30,000,000.00), with an additional discretionary availability of seventy million dollars ($70,000,000.00) (the "Commitment").
Maturity: The Amended Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature, and the commitments thereunder will terminate, on September 1, 2024, or earlier pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement.
Payments of Principal: No payments of outstanding principal are due until the maturity date of the Amended Credit Agreement.
Letters of Credit: The Amended Credit Agreement can be utilized by the Company for standby letters of credit provided, however, (A) the aggregate amount of outstanding letter of credit liabilities cannot at any time exceed eighteen million dollars ($18,000,000.00) and (B) the sum of any amount of any outstanding loans under the line of credit and outstanding letter of credit liabilities cannot at any time exceed the Commitment. Upon termination of the Commitment, any letter of credit then outstanding which has been fully cash collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender will no longer be considered a "letter of credit" as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement but the letter of credit fees payable will continue to accrue to the Lender with respect to such letter of credit until the expiry thereof.
Interest Rate and Fees: The loans will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made until paid at the Daily Simple SOFR Rate plus the applicable margin rate of seventy-six hundredths of one percent (0.76%). In the event that the Daily Simple SOFR Rate is less than the Benchmark Floor, the Daily Simple SOFR Rate becomes the Benchmark Floor. The Benchmark Floor is a rate of interest equal to zero percent (0.00%). If the Daily Simple SOFR Rate cannot be determined or becomes unlawful, the loan shall bear interest to be equal to the Prime Rate.
During the existence of any event of default, at the election of the Lender, the loans will bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of two percent (2%) per annum plus the prevailing rate identified above.
The Company will pay to the Lender quarterly in arrears on each quarterly payment date, at any time there shall be a reduction in the amount of the Commitment and on the maturity date, a non-refundable unused fee (the "Unused Fee") (calculated on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual days elapsed) equal to the product of the Unused Fee Rate of one eighth of one percent (0.125%) times the average daily unborrowed portion of the amount of the Commitment during the period ended on the quarterly payment date, Commitment reduction date or maturity date.
The Company will pay to the Lender a fee in arrears on the first quarterly payment date occurring after the date of the issuance of the first letter of credit and on each quarterly payment date thereafter until the date of expiration or termination of all letters of credit, calculated by reference to the product of the actual daily undrawn face amount of all issued letters of credit multiplied by a rate per annum equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The Company will also pay to the Lender all customary issuance and other fees for issuing and processing letters of credit and for amendments to and processing of the letters of credit.
