Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On
September 29, 2017, Celadon Group, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Sixth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amendment") by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, Bank of America, N.A., as lender and Administrative Agent, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., and Citizens Bank, N.A., both as lenders, which amends the Company's existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated December 12, 2014, among the same parties (as amended, the "Credit Agreement").  Among other changes, the Amendment
(i) amended the lease adjusted total debt to EBITDAR ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenants so that such covenants would not be tested for the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2017 (testing to resume for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2017); (ii) decreased the maximum amount of outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, including loans and letters of credit, from $226.3 million to $221.3 million, maintaining the existing loan sub-limit of approximately $192.2 million and decreasing the letter of credit sub-limit from $35.0 million to $30.0 million; (iii) amended the asset coverage ratio financial covenant so that a ratio of 0.70 to 1.00 is required for periods prior to December 31, 2017, and 1.50 to 1.00 for each week ending thereafter

; (iv) reset the other financial covenant levels for the months of September through December; (v) added a requirement that the Company deliver by October 15, 2017 indications of interest from one or more term loan lenders and a certificate confirming that the Company has received one or more indications of interest from prospective asset-based lenders with respect to a new asset-based credit facility, which proposed term loan and asset-based credit facility would enable the Company to repay all outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement; (vi) added a requirement that the Company deliver by November 22, 2017 executed letters of intent with prospective lenders with respect to the abovementioned new term loan and asset-based credit facility and a certificate that any due diligence or similar upfront fee owed by the Company thereunder has been paid; (vii) added additional financial reporting requirements; (viii) extended the deadline for certain perfection and collateral diligence obligations; (ix) shortened the maturity date from December 12, 2019 to December 12, 2018; (x) required an amendment fee of $1,659,750, of which $1,106,500 was paid upon closing the Amendment, with the balance due upon the earlier of January 1, 2018 and acceleration or repayment in full of the obligations under the Credit Agreement; and (xi) required an extension fee of $221,300 payable upon the earlier of January 1, 2018 and acceleration or repayment in full of the obligations under the Credit Agreement, provided that this extension fee is waived if the Credit Agreement is repaid in full on or prior to December 31, 2017.
