Item 1.01.         Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 21, 2022, Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. (the “Company”), as borrowing agent; Build-A-Bear Retail Management, Inc., together with the Company, as borrowers (collectively, the “Borrowers”); and Build-A-Bear Workshop Franchise Holdings, Inc., Build-A-Bear Entertainment, LLC, Build-A-Bear Card Services, LLC and Build-A-Bear Workshop Canada, Ltd. (collectively, the “Guarantors”); entered into a Second Amendment to Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”); and PNC Bank, National Association, as agent for Lenders (in such capacity, “Agent”). The Second Amendment amended the Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of August 25, 2020 (the “Original Credit Agreement”), as amended by the First Amendment, dated as of December 17, 2021 (the “First Amendment”, and together with the Original Credit Agreement and the Second Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the Borrowers, the Guarantors, the Lenders, and the Agent. All capitalized terms used in this Item 1.01 and not otherwise defined in this Item 1.01 shall have the meanings given in the Credit Agreement.

 

In light of the upcoming cessation of LIBOR, the Second Amendment (i) changed the interest calculation from a LIBOR based reference rate to secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) based reference rate, (ii) updated the mechanics to use a future reference rate in the event that SOFR is no longer available, (iii) updated various provisions regarding compliance with sanctions and anti-money laundering laws, and (iv) implemented certain other technical amendments.

 

As a result, any borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest by reference to, at the Borrower’s option, either (a) a base rate determined under the Credit Agreement, or (b) at a rate based on SOFR, plus in either case a margin based on average undrawn availability as determined in accordance with the Credit Agreement, as such rates and floor were reduced by the First Amendment.

 

At the closing date of the Second Amendment, the Borrowers had a $500,000 letter of credit issued and no outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreement and the Company is currently in compliance with the Credit Agreement covenants.

 

Relationship to PNC

 

The Company has or may have had customary banking relationships with PNC based on the provision of a variety of financial services, including lending, commercial banking and other advisory services.

 

The foregoing description of the Second Amendment is only a summary of material terms and conditions of such document and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. In addition, the Company has previously filed (i) the Original Credit Agreement as Exhibit 10.1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on August 31, 2020 and (ii) the First Amendment as Exhibit 10.1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on December 22, 2021.
