Waiver and Amendment to Loan Agreement
 
On September 12, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 1 and Waiver to the Loan Agreement, dated as of February 25, 2022, (the “Loan Amendment”) with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Bank”). The Loan Amendment, among other matters, provided for a one-time waiver of our failure to maintain (i) consolidated debt to EBITDA ratio not exceeding 3.00 to 1.00 (the “Debt Test”), measured as of the last day of each calendar quarter, for the period ended July 31, 2023; and (ii) consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.25 to 1.00 (the “FCCR Test”), measured as of the last day of each calendar quarter, for the period ended July 31, 2023. The Loan Amendment also waives testing for compliance with the Debt Test and FCCR Test for the quarterly periods ending October 31, 2023, January 31, 2024, April 30, 2024, and July 31, 2024, with the Debt Test and FCCR Test resuming with the period ending October 31, 2024, and continuing thereafter on a trailing 12-month basis. Further, pursuant to the Loan Amendment, we are required to maintain (i) (a) until September 21, 2023, minimum liquidity (week-end cash balance plus availability from the revolving line of credit) of $4.0 million, and (b) from September 22, 2023 and thereafter, liquidity equal to the greater of (1) $4.0 million or (2) 80% of the liquidity that was forecast for this date at the fourth week of the forecast; and (ii) minimum EBITDA of ($400,000), $500,000, $1.0 million, and $1.0 million for the quarters ending October 31, 2023, January 31, 2024, April 30, 2024, and July 31, 2024, respectively. The effectiveness of the Loan Amendment is conditioned upon, among other things, our payment of a waiver fee of $50,000, and each guarantor’s execution of a consent to the Loan Amendment and reaffirmation of its obligations under its respective guaranty.
 
The foregoing summary description of the Loan Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Loan Amendment, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.3 and is incorporated herein by reference.
