Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 7, 2015, Nortech Systems Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into the Seventh Amendment (the “Seventh Amendment”) to its Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Amended Credit Agreement”).  The Seventh Amendment provides for a $15.0 million line of credit through May 31, 2018, which is a $1.5 million increase from the existing line of credit under the Amended Credit Agreement.  The Seventh Amendment also provides a new equipment term note in the amount of approximately $1.0 million, which is in addition to the existing equipment term notes outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement in the aggregate amount of approximately $2.7 million, all of which equipment term notes having a maturity date of May 31, 2018.  In addition, the Seventh Amendment provides for a new term loan of up to $1.0 million for capital expenditures to be made prior to May 31, 2018 with a maturity date of May 31, 2018.  The Seventh Amendment did not amend any terms of the two real estate term loans outstanding in an aggregate amount of approximately $3.5 million under the existing Amended Credit Agreement.

 

Interest and fees on each loan under the Seventh Amendment are payable at variable rates calculated as specified in the agreement for the particular loan.  The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain covenants which, among other things, require the Company to adhere to regular reporting requirements, abide by annual shareholder dividend limitations, maintain certain financial performance, and limit the amount of annual capital expenditures.

 

The foregoing summary description of the terms and conditions of the Seventh Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Seventh Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
