Item 1.01. |
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On May 20, 2024, Power Solutions International, Inc. (the “Company” or “PSI”) amended and restated its $25 million shareholder’s loan agreement (the “$25 Million Third Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement”) with its majority stockholder, Weichai America Corp. (“Weichai”), to extend the loan maturity date to May 20, 2025. The $25 million loan under the $25 Million Third Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement has been fully drawn as of the date of this report and is subordinated in all respects to the Company’s existing $50 million senior secured revolving credit facility with Standard Chartered Bank (of which $40 million has been borrowed as of May 20, 2024).
Borrowings under the $25 Million Third Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement will incur interest at the applicable Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), plus 4.05% per annum. Further, if the applicable term SOFR is negative, the interest rate per annum shall be deemed as 4.05% per annum. If the interest rate for any loan under the $25 Million Third Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement is lower than Weichai’s borrowing cost, the interest rate for such loan shall be equal to Weichai’s borrowing cost plus 1%.
The Company previously entered into two separate loan agreements with Weichai, including the $50 million second amended and restated shareholder’s loan agreement (the “$50 Million Second Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement”) on November 29, 2023, and the $30 million second amended and restated shareholder’s loan agreement (the “$30 Million Second Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement”) on March 22, 2024. As of May 20, 2024, PSI had $50 million of borrowings under the $50 Million Second Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement and $19.8 million of borrowings under the $30 Million Second Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement.
The foregoing description of the $25 Million Third Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the $25 Million Third Amended and Restated Shareholder’s Loan Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
