as supplemented March 6, 1997, April 2, 1997 and May 29, 1997
Completion of $40 Million Credit Facility
On June 26, 1997, COMFORCE Corporation and its operating subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company") completed a $40 million credit facility (the
"Credit Facility") with Fleet National Bank, as lender and agent ("Fleet"), and
U.S. Bank, Washington, as lender (collectively, "Lenders"). The Credit Facility
consists of a revolving credit facility of up to $20 million and a $20 million
term loan.
The Company utilized all of the proceeds of the term loan and a portion of
the availability under the revolving credit facility to redeem the Company's
$25.2 million in outstanding principal amount of Convertible Subordinated
Debentures issued principally to fund the Company's acquisition of RHO Company
Incorporated ("RHO") in February 1997. Additional funds available under the
revolving credit facility were used to retire the existing $7.5 million
revolving credit facility of RHO with U.S. Bank, Washington. The Company intends
to use available funds under the revolving credit facility for working capital
and general corporate purposes, including for acquisitions, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions therefor set forth in the Credit Facility.
Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to various financial
covenants and other conditions. As of July 3, 1997, $19.4 million was drawn or
available to be drawn under the revolving credit facility based on the Company's
satisfaction of borrowing base requirements on such date.
The revolving credit facility and the term loan bear interest at a rate
equal to 0.75% and 1.75%, respectively, in excess of Fleet's prime rate as
announced from time to time. The Company's obligations under the Credit Facility
are secured by substantially all of its assets. In addition, James L. Paterek,
the Chairman of the Company, Christopher P. Franco, the Chief Executive Officer
of the Company, and Michael Ferrentino, the President of the Company, each
pledged 500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock held by them and all of the
options to purchase Common Stock held by them as additional collateral for the
Company's obligations under the Credit Facility. The scheduled maturity date of
the revolving credit facility is July 10, 1998. Subject to Fleet's right to
issue a call notice requiring repayment of the term loan at any time on or after
July 10, 1998, the term loan is payable in quarterly installment as follows:
$750,000 on July 1, 1998 and at the end of each calendar quarter thereafter
through and including December 31, 1999; $1,475,000 at the end of each calendar
quarter beginning March 31, 2000 and ending March 31, 2002, and a final balloon
payment equal to the sum of unpaid principal plus accrued interest on June 30,
2002.
In connection with underwriting and extending the loan, Fleet earned an
underwriting fee of $600,000 and received warrants to purchase (i) 100,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.30 per share ($1.50 per share
in excess of the average closing price of the Common Stock for the five business
days ended June 24, 1997), exercisable until June 25, 2000 and (ii) 100,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share in excess of the
average closing price of the Common Stock for the five business days ending
prior to the date of the occurrence of specified conditions, exercisable
commencing on such date and for a period of three years thereafter.
Conversion of Series D Preferred Stock into Common Stock.
Effective as of June 30, 1997, the Company completed its conversion of the
remaining 5,265 shares of its Series D Preferred Stock into 526,500 shares of
Common Stock. To effect this conversion, the Company reduced the original
conversion price of $12.00 per share to $10.00 per share, which resulted in an
increase in the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion by 87,750
shares. The Company had previously converted other shares of its Series D
Preferred Stock at $12.00 per share. The Company will record a noncash dividend
for the second quarter of $494,000 to reflect this modification to the
conversion price. The Company offered to modify the conversion price to induce
the conversions and thereby eliminate substantially all preferred stock
dividends going forward. Currently, the Company has no outstanding shares of
preferred stock except for 500 shares of its Series F Preferred Stock with a
liquidation value of $500,000 which are held by a single stockholder.
