ATRM HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of ATRM Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to (i) “ATRM,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our,” refer to ATRM Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, (ii) “KBS” refers to our Maine-based modular housing manufacturing business operated by our wholly-owned subsidiary KBS Builders, Inc. and (iii) “EBGL” refers to our Minnesota-based operations including Glenbrook Building Supply, Inc. (“Glenbrook”), a retail supplier of lumber and other building supplies, and EdgeBuilder, Inc. (“EdgeBuilder”), a manufacturer of structural wall panels, permanent wood foundation systems and other engineered wood products.

Through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, KBS, Glenbrook and EdgeBuilder, we manufacture modular buildings for commercial and residential applications in production facilities located in South Paris and Waterford, Maine, operate a retail lumber yard located in Oakdale, Minnesota, and manufacture structural wall panels, permanent wood foundation systems and other engineered wood products for use in construction of commercial and residential buildings in a production facility located in Prescott, Wisconsin.
Our previous wholly-owned subsidiary, Maine Modular Haulers, Inc. (“MMH”) was used to provide transportation, logistics and other related services for the transportation of KBS’s completed modular buildings. In 2016, the Company decided that the shipping of KBS’s modular buildings could be done more efficiently and more economically on an outsourced basis. Under the outsourced model, KBS now directly coordinates the transportation and logistics of the delivery of its modular buildings and contracts with third-party hauling companies to transport the modules. As part of the decision to move to an outsourced transportation model, we disposed of MMH’s trucks to an unrelated third party and the frames (trailers) were transferred (at book value) to KBS from MMH. MMH was officially dissolved on March 21, 2017 .
The Company’s corporate headquarters is located at Glenbrook’s offices in Oakdale, Minnesota, a suburb of St. Paul.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2016 , has been derived from our audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year or any future period.
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 .

2 .      FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We acknowledge that the Company continues to face a challenging operating environment, and while we continue to focus on improving our overall profitability, we reported an operating loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 . We have incurred significant operating losses in recent years and, as of September 30, 2017 , we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $87.5 million .  Working capital has remained negative over the past several years. Cash used in operating activities remains negative for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . This has required us to generate funds from investing and financing activities. At September 30, 2017 , we had outstanding debt of approximately $10.1 million .
We have issued various promissory notes to finance our acquisitions of KBS and EBGL and to provide for our general working capital needs. As of September 30, 2017 , we had outstanding debt totaling approximately $10.1 million . Our debt primarily included (i) $3.5 million principal outstanding on KBS’s $4.0 million revolving credit facility under a loan and security agreement





with Gerber Finance Inc. (“Gerber Finance”) (the “KBS Loan Agreement”) and $3.0 million principal outstanding under a loan and security agreement with Gerber Finance used to finance the acquisition of EBGL (the “Acquisition Loan Agreement”), (ii) $2.2 million principal outstanding on EBGL’s $3.0 million revolving credit facility under a revolving credit loan agreement with Premier Bank (the “Premier Loan Agreement”), which became effective on June 30, 2017 and replaced the prior $3.0 million revolving credit facility under a loan and security agreement with Gerber Finance (the “EBGL Loan Agreement”). We also have obligations to make $1.3 million in deferred cash payments to the sellers of EBGL, payable in monthly quarterly installments of $100,000 , inclusive of interest, through November 1, 2018.
Jeffrey E. Eberwein, Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), is the manager of Lone Star Value Investors GP, LLC (“LSVGP”), the general partner of Lone Star Value Investors, LP ("LSVI") and LSV Co-Invest I, and the sole member of Lone Star Value Management, LLC (“ LSVM ”) , the investment manager of LSVI.
At the applicable test dates, we were not in compliance with the following financial covenants under our loan agreements: (i) a requirement for KBS to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 7 :1 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 , as its actual leverage ratio for such period was negative; (ii) a requirement for KBS not to incur a net annual post-tax loss in any fiscal year of the loan agreements, as KBS’s net annual post-tax loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 was $3.2 million ; and (iii) a requirement to deliver the Company’s fiscal year-end financial statements reviewed by an independent certified accounting firm acceptable to Gerber Finance within 105 days from the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 . In August 2017 , Gerber Finance provided us with a waiver for these events. As of December 31, 2017 and 2018, KBS was not in compliance with the financial covenants requiring no net annual post-tax loss for KBS or the minimum leverage ratio covenant as of these test dates. Additionally, KBS was not in compliance with the requirement to deliver the Company's fiscal year-end financial statements reviewed by an independent certified accounting firm acceptable to Gerber Finance within 105 days from the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The occurrence of any event of default under the KBS Loan Agreement may result in KBS’s obligations under the KBS Loan Agreement becoming immediately due and payable. In April 2019 , we obtained a waiver from Gerber Finance for these events. While the Company currently projects that it will be in compliance with the covenant requiring no net annual post-tax loss for KBS, the Company projects that it will continue to not be in compliance with the minimum leverage ratio covenant. If the Company fails to comply with any financial covenants under our loan agreements with Gerber Finance going forward, Gerber Finance may demand the repayment of the credit facilities amount outstanding and any unpaid interest thereon.
During 2016, 2017 and 2018, we implemented several strategic initiatives, effected certain actions and continued to consider additional actions to improve the Company’s overall profitability and increase cash flows, including:
KBS’s strategic shift away from large commercial projects with significant site work to focus on its core competency of manufacturing modular buildings;
KBS’s efforts to improve operating efficiencies, including reconfiguring the South Paris factory to increase production, investments in automated equipment to reduce labor costs, implementing lean manufacturing techniques, and elimination of duplicate overhead costs through the shut-down of the Waterford factory;
Reduction in KBS workforce including manufacturing, sales, engineering and front-office staff;
KBS increased pricing on its base ranch model in 2017 , and in November 2017 , instituted a 6% lumber surcharge on all new orders to help offset the significant rise in lumber and other raw materials costs;
KBS has implemented a new dynamic pricing model for 2018 , which is designed to determine its bid price quoted to customers on the most current cost information to better ensure full recovery of its manufacturing costs and improve overall gross margins;
In July 2017 , KBS made the final payment due to the primary seller of KBS, freeing up $100,000 per month of cash flows to be used for operations;
In November 2018, EBGL made the final payment due to the sellers of EBGL, freeing up $100,000 per month of cash flows to be used for operations;
In 2017 , we instituted a lumber hedging program for EBGL to assist in preserving existing margins against the potential large fluctuations in lumber raw material prices;
In August 2016 , we amended certain of our debt agreements to allow the Company to pay PIK Interest on approximately $11 million of our debt, reducing strain on current cash flows;





In June 2017 , we refinanced EBGL’s revolving credit facility and amended the terms of our agreement with the EBGL Sellers providing for deferred payments to obtain more favorable lending and payment terms and reduce total fees paid under these agreements;
As disclosed in Note 16 , in September 2017 , we converted $13.3 million of the Company’s outstanding debt, including accrued interest, to preferred stock;
As disclosed in Note 20 , in January 2018 and in June 2018 , the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $1.4 million to LSV Co-Invest I to provide additional working capital for the Company;
In April 2019, KBS and EBGL executed sale leasebacks of several of its real estate properties (see further discussion in Note 20); and
We continue to look for opportunities to refinance our remaining debt on more favorable terms.
On September 10, 2018 ATRM entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “ LOI ”) relating to the acquisition of ATRM (the "ATRM Acquisition") by Digirad Corporation ("Digirad"). Under the terms contemplated in the LOI, ATRM stockholders will receive consideration consisting of 0.4 shares of Digirad common stock for each share of outstanding ATRM common stock acquired by the Company in the ATRM Acquisition (see Note 20 for additional information). We anticipate the ATRM Acquisition to close in the third quarter of 2019.
Our historical operating results indicate substantial doubt exists related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We believe that the actions discussed, have already occurred or are probable of occurring, and alleviate the substantial doubt raised by our historical operating results, as well as satisfy our estimated liquidity needs for the twelve months from the issuance of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, we cannot predict with certainty the outcome of our actions to generate liquidity, including the availability of additional debt financing, or whether such actions would generate the expected liquidity as currently planned.
If we continue to experience operating losses, and we are not able to generate additional liquidity through the mechanisms described above or through some combination of other actions, while not expected, we may not be able to continue operations. Additionally, a failure to generate additional liquidity could negatively impact our access to materials or services that are important to the operation of our business. In addition, these losses could further trigger violations of covenants under our debt agreements, resulting in accelerated payment of these loans.
There can be no assurance that our existing cash reserves, together with funds generated by our operations and any future financings, will be sufficient to satisfy our debt payment obligations, to avoid liquidity issues and/or fund operations beyond this fiscal year. Our inability to generate funds from our operations and/or obtain financing sufficient to satisfy our payment obligations may result in our obligations being accelerated by our lenders, which would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Given these uncertainties, there can be no assurance that our existing cash reserves will be sufficient to avoid liquidity issues and/or fund operations beyond this fiscal year.
Although not a binding commitment, LSVM has advised us of its present intention to continue to financially support the Company in the event that additional financing is required. In 2014 , 2015 , 2016 , 2017 and 2018 , LSVM has provided financial support in the form of financing through various debt agreements disclosed in Note 14 . Based on the previous commitments, management believes that additional financing may be provided by LSVM or its affiliates, if necessary, in the future. In addition, it should be noted that LSVM is a related party to Digirad, with whom ATRM has entered into a LOI, as mentioned above.

3.      BUSINESS COMBINATION

On October 4, 2016 , the Company acquired certain assets of EdgeBuilder Wall Panels, Inc. and Glenbrook Lumber & Supply, Inc. (collectively, the “EBGL Sellers”) through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries EdgeBuilder and Glenbrook, respectively, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of the same date, by and among the Company, EdgeBuilder, Glenbrook, the EBGL Sellers and the individual owners of the EBGL Sellers (the “EBGL Acquisition”). The Company operates the businesses of EdgeBuilder and Glenbrook on a combined basis, and such businesses are referred to on a combined basis as EBGL.

EBGL’s results are included in our consolidated statement of operations since October 4, 2016 , the date of the EBGL Acquisition. The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of ATRM and the EBGL





Sellers for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 as if the EBGL Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2016 (in thousands, except per share amount):

4.      RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In May 2017 , the Financial and Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is only required if the fair value, vesting conditions or classification (equity or liability) of the new award are different from the original award immediately before the original award is modified. This update is effective for annual and interim financial statement periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance must be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date; consequently the impact will be dependent on whether the Company modifies any of its share-based payment awards and the nature of such modifications. There were no material impacts on the Company’s results based on the adoption of this update.

In January 2017 , FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . The amendments in this ASU simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test and eliminating the requirement for a reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment. Instead, under this pronouncement, an entity would perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and would recognize an impairment change for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized is not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects will be considered, if applicable. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 201 9. Early adoption is permitted and should be adopted on a prospective basis. The Company has adopted this ASU on a prospective basis in the second quarter of 2017.

In November 2015 , the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740 ) : Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes . ASU 2015-17 was issued to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. The amendments in this guidance require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. ASU 2015-17 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 , and interim periods within those annual periods. As required, ATRM adopted this update effective January 1, 2017 . There were no material impacts on the Company’s results based on the adoption of this update.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” , which requires all inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, except for inventory that is accounted for using the LIFO or the retail inventory method, which will be measured under existing accounting standards.  The new guidance must be applied on a prospective basis and was adopted on January 1, 2017 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The Company performs an annual assessment of goodwill during the second quarter. Since the acquisition of EBGL in 2016 , EBGL’s operating results have lagged behind management’s expectations. Rising lumber costs and other factors have resulted in lower-than-expected gross profit margins and net losses. We completed our annual goodwill impairment assessment as of June 30, 2017 and determined that the carrying value of the EBGL goodwill exceeded the estimated fair value by $3.0 million at that date. Accordingly, a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $3.0 million was recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2017 .
    
We completed a goodwill impairment assessment as of September 30, 2016 and determined that the carrying value of the KBS goodwill exceeded the fair value by $1.7 million at that date. Since the acquisition of KBS in 2014, KBS’s operating results had lagged behind management’s expectations. Despite the implementation of its strategic plans for change at KBS, which had begun to materialize in KBS’s overall operating results, KBS continued to underperform our projected levels of net revenue and net income. Accordingly, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $1.7 million in 2016.
 
Amortization expense amounted to approximately $79.0 thousand and $0.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , and approximately $51.0 thousand and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 , respectively.

13 .    NOTES PAYABLE
As of September 30, 2017 , we had outstanding revolving lines of credit of approximately $5.7 million . Our notes payable primarily included (i) $3.5 million principal outstanding on KBS’s $4.0 million revolving credit facility under the KBS Loan Agreement and (ii) $2.2 million principal outstanding on EBGL’s $3.0 million revolving credit facility under the Premier Loan Agreement, net of an immaterial amount of unamortized financing fees.
KBS Loan Agreement
The KBS Loan Agreement provides KBS with a revolving line of credit with borrowing availability of up to $4.0 million . Availability under the line of credit is based on a formula tied to KBS’s eligible accounts receivable, inventory, real estate and other collateral. The KBS Loan Agreement was scheduled to expire on February 22, 2018 , but, under the terms of the agreement, was extended automatically for an additional one -year period ending on February 22, 2019 . Under the terms of the agreement, the KBS Loan Agreement was extended automatically for an additional one-year period ending on February 22, 2020. The KBS Loan Agreement will extend again automatically for an additional one -year period unless a party provides prior written notice of termination. Upon the final expiration of the term of the KBS Loan Agreement, the outstanding principal balance is payable in full. Borrowings bear interest at the prime rate plus 2.75% , with interest payable monthly. The KBS Loan Agreement also provides for certain fees payable to Gerber Finance during its term, including a 1.5% annual facilities fee and a 0.10% monthly collateral monitoring fee. KBS’s obligations under the KBS Loan Agreement are secured by all of its property and assets and are guaranteed by ATRM. Unsecured promissory notes issued by KBS and ATRM are subordinate to KBS’s obligations under the KBS Loan Agreement. The KBS Loan Agreement contains representations, warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and other provisions customary for financings of this type. Financial covenants require that KBS maintain a maximum leverage ratio (as defined in the KBS Loan Agreement) and KBS not incur a net annual post-tax loss in any fiscal year during the term of the KBS Loan Agreement. At September 30, 2017 , approximately $3.5 million was outstanding under the KBS Loan Agreement, which, after offset of an immaterial amount of unamortized deferred financing costs, is presented at a net amount of approximately $3.5 million on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.





On June 30, 2017 , the parties to the KBS Loan Agreement entered into a Second Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement to amend the Acquisition Loan Agreement to waive certain covenants and to make certain amendments in connection with the termination of the EBGL Loan Agreement and refinancing under the Premier Loan Agreement.

On June 30, 2017, the parties to the KBS Loan Agreement entered into a Third Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement providing for increased availability under the KBS Loan Agreement to KBS under certain circumstances, and certain other changes, as well as a waiver of certain covenants.

On July 20, 2017, the parties to the KBS Loan Agreement entered into a Fourth Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement providing for increased availability under the KBS Loan Agreement to KBS for new equipment additions, as well as a waiver for certain covenants.

On September 29, 2017, the parties to the KBS Loan Agreement entered into a Fifth Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement and the parties to the Acquisition Loan Agreement entered into a Third Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement in conjunction with the Exchange with LSVI and LSV Co-Invest (see discussion below).

As of December 31, 2017 and 2018, KBS was not in compliance with the financial covenants requiring no net annual post-tax loss for KBS or the minimum leverage ratio covenant as of these test dates. Additionally, KBS was not in compliance with the requirement to deliver the Company's fiscal year-end financial statements reviewed by an independent certified accounting firm acceptable to Gerber Finance within 105 days from the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The occurrence of any event of default under the KBS Loan Agreement may result in KBS’s obligations under the KBS Loan Agreement becoming immediately due and payable. In April 2019, we obtained a waiver from Gerber Finance for these events. While the Company currently projects that it will be in compliance with the covenant requiring no net annual post-tax loss for KBS, the Company projects that it will continue to not be in compliance with the minimum leverage ratio covenant. If the Company fails to comply with any financial covenants under our loan agreements with Gerber Finance going forward, Gerber Finance may demand the repayment of the credit facilities amount outstanding and any unpaid interest thereon.
EBGL Line of Credit

On October 4, 2016, concurrently with the EBGL Acquisition, the Company entered the EBGL Loan Agreement providing EBGL with a revolving working capital line of credit of up to $3.0 million . Availability under the EBGL Loan Agreement was based on a formula tied to the borrowers’ eligible accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. The initial term of the EBGL Loan Agreement was set to expire on October 3, 2018, but extended automatically for additional one-year periods unless a party provided prior written notice of termination. Borrowings bear interest at the prime rate plus 2.75% , with interest payable monthly and the outstanding principal balance was payable upon the expiration of the term of the EBGL Loan Agreement. Initially, availability under the EBGL Loan Agreement was limited to $1.0 million , which amount could be increased to up to $3.0 million in increments of $0.5 million upon the request of the borrowers and in the discretion of Gerber Finance. Obligations under the EBGL Loan Agreement were secured by all of the borrowers’ assets and were guaranteed by the Company and its other subsidiaries. The EBGL Loan Agreement contained representations, warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and other provisions customary for financings of this type. Financial covenants required that EBGL maintained a minimum tangible net worth and a minimum debt service coverage ratio. The Company refinanced the EBGL Loan Agreement through a new $3.0 million revolving working capital line of credit with Premier Bank on June 30, 2017.


On June 30, 2017 , EBGL entered into the Premier Loan Agreement with Premier providing EBGL with a working capital line of credit of up to $3.0 million . The Premier Loan Agreement replaced the EBGL Loan Agreement with Gerber Finance, which was terminated on the same date. Availability under the Premier Loan Agreement is based on a formula tied to EBGL’s eligible accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, and borrowings bear interest at the prime rate plus 1.50% , with interest payable monthly and the outstanding principal balance payable upon expiration of the term of the Premier Loan Agreement. The Premier Loan Agreement also provides for certain fees payable to Premier during its term. The initial term of the Premier Loan Agreement was scheduled to expire on June 30, 2018 , but was extended by Premier until February 1, 2019 . In February 2019, the Premier Loan Agreement was extended further by Premier until August 1, 2019. The Premier Loan Agreement may be further extended from time to time at our request, subject to approval by Premier. EBGL’s obligations under the Premier Loan Agreement are secured by all of their inventory, equipment, accounts and other intangibles, fixtures and all proceeds of the foregoing.
 
The Premier Loan Agreement contains representations, warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and other provisions customary for financings of this type. The occurrence of any event of default under the Premier Loan Agreement may result in the obligations of EBGL becoming immediately due and payable.
 





As a condition to closing the Premier Loan Agreement, each of the Company and Jeffrey E. Eberwein, Chairman of the Board, executed a guaranty, dated as of the same date, in favor of Premier, absolutely and unconditionally guaranteeing all of EBGL’s obligations under the Premier Loan Agreement.

In connection with EBGL’s entry into the Premier Loan Agreement, and on the same date, EBGL repaid in full all of their obligations under and terminated the EBGL Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the termination of the EBGL Loan Agreement, all obligations of the Company in favor of Gerber Finance in connection with the EBGL Loan Agreement were extinguished.

Under the terms of the amended LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I promissory notes, the Company, at its sole option, may elect to make any interest payment in PIK Interest at an effective rate of 12% per annum (versus the 10% interest rate applied to cash payments) for that period. The Company elected to make the PIK Interest option for its interest payments in 2016 and recorded approximately $1.1 million of PIK Interest as part of the principal balance of the LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I promissory notes at December 31, 2016 . An additional $0.6 million of PIK Interest was added to the principal balance of the LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I promissory notes as of June 30, 2017 .
On March 31, 2017 , ATRM entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with LSV Co-Invest I. Pursuant to this agreement, LSV Co-Invest I purchased for $0.5 million in cash, an unsecured promissory note dated March 31, 2017 , made by ATRM in the principal amount of $0.5 million . The note bears interest at 10.0% per annum, with interest payable semiannually in January and July ; provided, however, LSV Co-Invest I may elect to receive any PIK Interest at an annual rate of 12.0% , so long as any such interest payment is made either (x) entirely in PIK Interest or (y) 50% cash and 50% PIK Interest. Except for the principal amount and the PIK Interest feature, the terms of this promissory note are identical to the terms of the previous LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I promissory notes.
On September 29, 2017 , the Company, LSVI, and LSV Co-Invest I entered into an exchange agreement whereby the outstanding LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I promissory notes, along with accrued interest, were exchanged for 132,548 shares of the Company’s 10.0% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock ("Series B Stock"). Subsequently, in 2018 , the Company issued new promissory notes to LSV Co-Invest I in the total principal amount of $1.4 million . See further discussion in Note 16 .
The Company is party to a Registration Rights Agreement with LSVI, providing LSVI with certain demand and piggyback registration rights, effective at any time after July 30, 2014 , with respect to the 107,297 shares of our common stock issued upon the conversion of a convertible promissory note held by LSVI in 2014 .
As of September 30, 2017 , LSVI owned 1,067,885 shares of our common stock, or approximately 45.1% of our outstanding shares, including 900,000 shares purchased in a common stock rights offering we completed in September 2015 . Jeffrey E. Eberwein, ATRM’s Chairman of the Board, is the manager of LSVGP, the general partner of LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I, and the sole member of LSVM, the investment manager of LSVI.
ATRM’s entry into the securities purchase agreements with LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I was approved by a Special Committee of our Board consisting solely of independent directors.
On June 30, 2017, the Company entered into a Second Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement to amend the Acquisition Loan Agreement to waive certain covenants and to make certain amendments in connection with the termination of the EBGL Loan Agreement and refinancing under the Premier Loan Agreement.

Amended Asset Purchase Agreement

On June 30, 2017 , the Company and the EBGL Sellers agreed to amend the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 4, 2016 (as amended, the “EBGL Asset Purchase Agreement”). Under the terms of this amendment, EBGL’s obligations to pay certain deferred payments to the EBGL Sellers ( $0.75 million ) and the contingent earn-out payment (carrying value of $0.89 million ) were replaced with set monthly payments totaling $1.8 million , payable with an initial $0.2 million payment on or about July 3, 2017 and 2016 monthly installments of $0.1 million beginning August 1, 2017 and ending on November 1, 2018 . The initial $0.2 million payment was made on June 30, 2017 . The restructured obligation was accounted for as a modification of the original obligations. Accordingly, the carrying value at June 30, 2017 of the remaining obligations under the amended agreement (totaling $1.6 million , comprised of the remaining 16 monthly installments of $0.1 million per month, after the initial payment of $0.2 million was made on June 30, 2017 ) is equivalent to the total carrying value of the original obligations totaling $1.44 million at June 30, 2017 , immediately prior to the amendment. This represents the estimated fair value of the amended obligation to the EBGL Sellers (future cash flows discounted using a rate of 15.14% ). The Company has subsequently made all remaining payments with the final payment made in November 2018 in full satisfaction of the obligations to the EBGL Sellers.

Preferred Stock Exchange

On September 29, 2017 , the Company, LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I entered into an Exchange Agreement, dated as of the same date (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company issued to LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I a total of 132,548 shares of a new class of 10.00% Series B Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company in exchange for the return and cancellation of all of the unsecured promissory notes of the Company (the “Notes”) held by LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I (the “Exchange”). The Notes had an aggregate of $13.3 million unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest outstanding at the time of their cancellation (see Note 16 for additional information).






On September 29, 2017 , in connection with the Exchange, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of the same date (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), with LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I. The Registration Rights Agreement provides that at any time after October 15, 2018 , upon the written request of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the shares of Series B Stock issued in the Exchange that qualify as registrable securities as defined therein, the Company will prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement covering the resale of those shares by their holders. No request has been made to date.

At the time of the Exchange, LSVI also owned 1,067,885 shares of the Company’s common stock, or approximately 45% of the shares outstanding. Additionally, 10,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were held in an account managed by LSVM, an affiliate of LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I. Jeffrey E. Eberwein, Chairman of the Board, is the manager of LSVGP, the general partner of LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I, and the sole member of LSVM, the investment manager of LSVI, and therefore may be deemed to beneficially own the securities owned by LSVI and the securities held in the account managed by LSVM. The terms of the Exchange and the Series B Stock were negotiated and approved by a special committee of the Board consisting solely of disinterested and independent directors.

On September 29, 2017 , in connection with the Exchange, the Company entered into amendments to its two Loan and Security Agreements (as amended, the “Loan Agreements”) with Gerber Finance to permit the Exchange and the Company’s payment of in-kind dividends on the Series B Stock, by the issuance of additional shares of Series B Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Series B Stock (as described below). Under the Loan Agreements, the Company is not permitted to pay cash dividends on the Series B Stock without the consent of Gerber Finance. Additionally, in connection with the Exchange, the subordination agreements by and among the Company, LSVI, LSV Co-Invest I and Gerber Finance, providing for the subordination of the Company’s obligations under the Notes to its obligations to Gerber Finance, were terminated.


 15.    STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN AND SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

ATRM uses the fair value method to measure and recognize share-based compensation. We determine the fair value of stock options on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. We determine the fair value of restricted stock awards based on the quoted market price of our common stock on the grant date. We recognize the compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the applicable awards.

2014 Incentive Plan

The Company has a stock incentive plan that was approved by the Board and became effective on December 4, 2014 (the “2014 Plan”) upon approval by shareholders. The 2014 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The purpose of the 2014 Plan is to provide employees, consultants and Board members the opportunity to acquire an equity interest in the Company through the issuance of various stock-based awards such as stock options and restricted stock.
Under the 2014 Plan, prior to January 1, 2016 , 60,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock were granted to its directors and its then Chief Financial Officer. The shares vested one year after the grant date and the fair value of the awards was determined to be $4.48 per share, the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. Compensation expense related to these grants amounted to approximately $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and is included in the caption “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
On October 19, 2016 , ATRM granted 30,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and former Chief Financial Officer ( 10,000 shares each). The shares vest one year after the grant date and the fair value of the awards was determined to be $2.25 per share, the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. Compensation expense related to these grants amounted to approximately $16.9 thousand and $50.6 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , and is included in the caption “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The remaining compensation expense of approximately $3.2 thousand will be recognized on a straight-line basis through October 19, 2017 , subject to forfeitures.





2003 Stock Incentive Plan
A stock incentive plan approved by our shareholders and adopted in May 2003 (the “2003 Plan”) terminated in February 2013. Stock options granted under the 2003 Plan continue to be exercisable according to their individual terms. The following table summarizes stock option activity under the 2003 Plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 :

All stock options outstanding at September 30, 2017 , are nonqualified options which expire at varying dates through November 2017 . The aggregate intrinsic values in the table above are zero because the option exercise prices for all outstanding options exceeded ATRM’s closing stock price on September 30, 2017 .
 
16 .    EQUITY

On September 29, 2017, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Minnesota a Statement of Designation of the Series B Stock (the “Statement of Designation”) creating the Series B Stock. The Statement of Designation authorizes the issuance of 160,000 shares of Series B Stock, having a par value of $0.001 per share and a stated value of $100.00 per share (subject to adjustment). Holders of Series B Stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board, cumulative preferential dividends, payable quarterly in cash at a rate per annum equal to 10.0% multiplied by the stated value; provided that the Company may pay dividends in-kind through the issuance of additional shares of Series B Stock at a rate per annum equal to 12.0%  multiplied by the stated value, at the sole option of the Company, for up to four quarterly dividend periods in any consecutive 36-month period (determined on a rolling basis).
 
In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or distribution to holders of junior shares, holders of Series B Stock will be entitled to receive an amount of cash per share of Series B Stock equal to the stated value plus all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not earned or declared).

As of September 30, 2017, there were 160,000 authorized and 132,548 shares of Series B Stock issued and outstanding.

  17.    INCOME TAXES

We record the benefit we will derive in future accounting periods from tax losses and credits and deductible temporary differences as “deferred tax assets.” We record a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of our net deferred tax assets if, based on all available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Since 2009, we have maintained a valuation allowance to fully reserve our deferred tax assets. We recorded a full valuation allowance in 2009 because we determined there was not sufficient positive evidence regarding our potential for future profits to outweigh the negative evidence of our three-year cumulative loss position at that time. We expect to continue to maintain a full valuation allowance until we determine that we can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates our ability to realize these assets. To the extent we determine that the realization of some or all of these benefits is more likely than not based upon expected future taxable income, a portion or all of the valuation allowance will be reversed. Such a reversal would be recorded as an income tax benefit and, for some portion related to deductions for stock option exercises, an increase in shareholders’ equity.
At September 30, 2017 , we have recorded a deferred tax liability of $26.4 thousand for the taxable differences related to our indefinite-lived intangible assets when calculating our valuation allowance due to the unpredictability of the reversal of these differences.








18.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is and may become involved in various lawsuits as well as other certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Information regarding certain material proceedings is provided below.

UTHE Technology Corporation v. Aetrium Incorporated
Since December 1993, an action brought by UTHE Technology Corporation (“UTHE”) against ATRM and its then sales manager for Southeast Asia (“Sales Manager”), asserting federal securities claims, a RICO claim, and certain state law claims, had been stayed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. UTHE’s claims were based on its allegations that four former employees of a Singapore company, which UTHE formerly owned, conspired to and did divert business from the subsidiary, and directed that business to themselves and a secret company they had formed, which forced UTHE to sell its subsidiary shares to the former employee defendants at a distressed price. The complaint alleged that ATRM and the Sales Manager participated in the conspiracy carried out by the former employee defendants. In December 1993, the case was dismissed as to the former employee defendants because of a contract requiring UTHE and them to arbitrate their claims in Singapore. The district court stayed the case against ATRM and the Sales Manager pending the resolution of arbitration in Singapore involving UTHE and three of the former employee defendants, but not involving ATRM or the Sales Manager. ATRM received notice in March 2012 that awards were made in the Singapore arbitration against one or more of the former employee defendants who were parties to the arbitration. In June 2012, UTHE filed a motion to reopen the case against ATRM and the Sales Manager and to lift the stay, which the court granted. On September 13, 2013, the court entered final judgment dismissing all remaining claims UTHE asserted against ATRM in the litigation. On September 23, 2013, UTHE appealed the district court judgment to the United States Court of Appeal for the Ninth Circuit only as to the dismissal of UTHE’s RICO claim. The appeal was argued in a court hearing on November 19, 2015. On December 11, 2015, the court of appeal issued an order reversing the district court’s grant of summary judgment of UTHE’s RICO claim and remanded the case back to the district court for further proceedings. On July 14, 2016, ATRM filed a motion for summary judgment in the district court seeking dismissal of the sole remaining RICO claim. On August 26, 2016, the district court granted ATRM’s motion for summary judgment and dismissed the case. On September 19, 2016, UTHE filed its appeal to the Ninth Circuit of the district court’s grant of summary judgment and dismissal. The parties completed the appellate briefing on February 13, 2017. Oral arguments were held by the appellate court on February 14, 2018. On July 2, 2018, the Ninth District Court of Appeals rendered its decision affirming the District Court’s opinion and upheld the dismissal of the case against ATRM. UTHE did not appeal that decision to the Supreme Court of the United States by the October 1, 2018 deadline. As such, this Ninth Circuit affirmance of the case dismissal stands, and the lawsuit has been successfully and completely defeated by the Company.
KBE Building Corporation v. KBS Builders, Inc., and ATRM Holdings, Inc., et. al.
At the time of the KBS acquisition in April 2014, KBS purchased receivables for a construction project known as the Nelton Court Housing Project (“Nelton Court”) in Hartford, CT, and also performed certain “punch-list” and warranty work. Modular units for Nelton Court were supplied by KBS Building Systems, Inc. (“KBS-BSI”) pursuant to a contract with KBE Building Corporation (“KBE”). KBE has asserted claims against KBS-BSI, KBS and ATRM arising out of alleged delays, and for the repair of certain alleged defects in the modular units supplied to the project. KBE’s claim seeks an unspecified amount of damages. The action has been transferred to the complex litigation docket of the Hartford Superior Court. On December 18, 2017, KBS was notified that a global settlement had been reached between all defendants and the plaintiff. Under the settlement, the Company’s insurance carriers have agreed to pay $300,000 to the plaintiff in full settlement on KBS’s behalf. KBS paid a $10,000 deductible to its insurance carriers for this claim.
From time to time, in the ordinary course of ATRM’s business, it is party to various other disputes, claims and legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, based on information available at this time, such disputes, claims and proceedings will not have a material effect on ATRM’s consolidated financial statements.

 
19.    OPERATING SEGMENTS

Prior to the EBGL Acquisition in October 2016 , the Company’s operating results reflected the operating results of KBS, along with certain corporate overhead and corporate borrowing activity. Since the EBGL Acquisition, the Company manages and organizes its business in two distinct reportable segments: (i) modular building manufacturing and (ii) structural wall panel and wood foundation manufacturing, including building supply retail operations. The modular building manufacturing segment, through KBS, manufactures modular buildings for both single-family residential homes and larger, commercial building projects. The structural wall panel and wood foundation manufacturing segment (which also includes the building supply retail operations)





manufactures structural wall panels for both residential and commercial projects as well as permanent wood foundation systems for residential homes, through the EdgeBuilder subsidiary, in addition to operating a local building supply retail operation, through the Glenbrook subsidiary. The Company also has corporate level activities and expenditures which are not considered a reportable segment.

Each segments’ accounting policies are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 . There are no intersegment sales.
The Company’s reportable business segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. Each segment is managed separately because they have different manufacturing processes and market to different customer bases, in geographically different markets.
The following table presents certain financial information regarding each reportable segment as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 (in thousands):

20 .    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Amendments to Gerber Finance Loan Agreements

On December 22, 2017 , the parties to the KBS Loan Agreement entered into a Sixth Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement providing for increased availability under the KBS Loan Agreement to KBS under certain circumstances, and certain other changes. In connection with this amendment to the KBS Loan Agreement, Jeffrey E. Eberwein, a director of the Company, executed a guaranty dated November 20, 2017 in favor of Gerber Finance unconditionally guaranteeing up to $0.5 million of KBS’s obligations under the KBS Loan Agreement arising from certain permitted overadvances. On December 22, 2017 , the Company also entered into a Fourth Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement to amend the terms of the Acquisition Loan Agreement to reflect certain changes made to the KBS Loan Agreement.

Through a series of correspondence between KBS and Gerber, on or about January 15, 2018 , which the parties to the KBS Loan Agreement deemed to be the Seventh Agreement of Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, the parties clarified certain definitions in the KBS Loan Agreement.

On October 1, 2018 , the parties to the KBS Loan Agreement entered into an Eighth Agreement of Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement to extend the availability of up to $0.6 million of overadvances to KBS above the borrowing base in order to provide KBS with additional working capital. The overadvance was scheduled to be paid down by $75.0 thousand per week beginning January 4, 2019 in order to be fully repaid on or before February 23, 2019 to coincide with the expiration date of the line of credit. As the line was automatically renewed through February 23, 2020 , Gerber has subsequently agreed to begin the





scheduled pay down of $75.0 thousand per week to begin on February 15, 2019 for eight weeks with final repayment scheduled for April 8, 2019 . The $0.6 million overadvance was paid in full on April 3, 2019.

On February 22, 2019, the Company entered into a Ninth Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Ninth KBS Loan Amendment”) to amend the terms of the KBS Loan Agreement to extend the availability of up to $0.6 million of overadvances through no later than May 3, 2019 in order to provide KBS with additional working capital. The overadvance was paid in full on April 3, 2019.

On April 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Tenth Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Tenth KBS Loan Amendment”) to amend the terms of the KBS Loan Agreement, and a Fifth Agreement of Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Fifth EBGL Loan Amendment”) to amend the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of October 4, 2016 (as amended, the “EBGL Acquisition Loan Agreement”), by and among the Company, KBS, Edgebuilder, Inc., Glenbrook Building Supply, Inc., and Gerber Finance, providing financing for the Company’s acquisition of its EBGL business. The Tenth KBS Loan Amendment and the Fifth EBGL Loan Amendment amended the terms of the KBS Loan Agreement and the EBGL Acquisition Loan Agreement, respectively, to permit the Company’s acquisition of LSVM and to clarify the parties’ rights and duties in connection therewith, among other things.

In connection with each of the Ninth KBS Loan Amendment and the Tenth KBS Loan Amendment, Mr. Eberwein executed a reaffirmation of guaranty in favor of Gerber Finance relating to his unconditional guaranty of $0.6 million of KBS’s obligations under the KBS Loan Agreement arising from the $0.6 million of overadvances permitted under the Ninth KBS Loan Amendment.

Charter Amendments

At the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on December 4, 2017 , shareholders approved amendments to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Existing Charter”) to:

(i) increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s capital stock from 3,200,000 to 10,000,000 , and make corresponding changes to the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock;
(ii) effect a 4-for-1 forward stock split of the Series B Stock; and
(iii) effect an extension to December 5, 2020 of the provisions of the Existing Charter designed to protect the tax benefits of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards by generally restricting any direct or indirect transfers of the Company’s common stock that increase the direct or indirect ownership of the Company’s common stock by any Person (as defined in the Existing Charter) from less than 4.99% to 4.99% or more of the Company’s common stock, or increase the percentage of the Company’s common stock owned directly or indirectly by a Person owning or deemed to own 4.99% or more of the Company’s common stock (the “Extended Protective Amendment”).

On December 4, 2017 , the Company filed Articles of Amendment with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Minnesota to effect these amendments.

Promissory Notes Sales to LSV Co-Invest I

On January 12, 2018 , the Company issued to LSV Co-Invest I an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $0.5 million in exchange for the same amount in cash (the “LSV Co-Invest I January Note”). The LSV Co-Invest I January Note was issued pursuant to a securities purchase agreement by and between the Company and LSV Co-Invest I dated as of the same date. The LSV Co-Invest I January Note bears interest at 10.0% per annum, with interest payable semiannually; provided, however, LSV Co-Invest I may elect to receive any interest as PIK Interest at an annual rate of 12.0% , so long as any such interest payment is made either (x) entirely in PIK Interest or (y) 50% cash and 50% PIK Interest . Any unpaid principal and interest under the LSV Co-Invest I January Note is due on January 12, 2020 . The Company may prepay the LSV Co-Invest I January Note at any time after a specified amount of advance notice to LSV Co-Invest I (subject to certain restrictions under the Company’s existing loan agreements). The LSV Co-Invest I January Note provides for customary events of default, the occurrence of any of which may result in the principal and unpaid interest then outstanding becoming immediately due and payable.

As of January 12, 2018 , LSVI owned 1,067,885 shares of our common stock, or approximately 45.1% of our outstanding shares, including 900,000 shares purchased in a common stock rights offering we completed in September 2015 . Jeffrey E. Eberwein, ATRM’s Chairman of the Board, is the manager of LSVGP, the general partner of LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I, and the sole member of LSVM, the investment manager of LSVI. ATRM’s entry into the securities purchase agreement with LSV Co-Invest I was approved by a Special Committee of our Board consisting solely of independent directors.





On June 1, 2018 , the Company issued to LSV Co-Invest I an additional unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $0.9 million in exchange for the same amount in cash (the “LSV Co-Invest I June Note”). The LSV Co-Invest I June Note was issued pursuant to a securities purchase agreement by and between the Company and LSV Co-Invest I dated as of the same date. The LSV Co-Invest I June Note bears interest at 10.0% per annum, with interest payable semiannually; provided, however, LSV Co-Invest I may elect to receive any interest payment entirely in-kind at an annual rate of 12.0% . Any unpaid principal and interest under the LSV Co-Invest I June Note is due on June 1, 2020 . The Company may prepay the LSV Co-Invest I June Note at any time after a specified amount of advance notice to LSV Co-Invest I (subject to certain restrictions under the Company’s existing loan agreements). The LSV Co-Invest I June Note provides for customary events of default, the occurrence of any of which may result in the principal and unpaid interest then outstanding becoming immediately due and payable.

As of June 1, 2018 , LSV Co-Invest I held 353,060 shares of the Company’s 10.00% Series B Stock and the LSV Co-Invest I January Note in the principal amount of $0.5 million . Also, as of June 1, 2018 , LSVI, an affiliate of LSV Co-Invest I, held 209,800 shares of Series B Stock, and LSVGP held 3,005 shares of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, as of June 1, 2018 , 415,012 shares of the Company’s common stock, or approximately 17% of its outstanding shares, were owned directly by Jeffrey E. Eberwein, Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors. Mr. Eberwein is the manager of LSVGP, the general partner of LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I, and sole member of Lone Star Value Management, LLC, the investment manager of LSVI. The Company’s sale of the LSV Co-Invest I June Note to LSV Co-Invest I was approved by the independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Merger with Digirad Corporation

On September 10, 2018 , Digirad announced that its board of directors had approved the conversion of Digirad into a diversified holding company and in conjunction with that new structure, that it would be acquiring the Company. In the transaction, shareholders of the Company will receive consideration consisting of 0.4 shares of Digirad common stock for each share of ATRM common stock, which is the approximate price ratio between the two stocks over the prior year.

The issuance of Digirad common stock in connection with the ATRM Acquisition is expected to increase the number of shares of outstanding Digirad common stock by just under 5% . The ATRM Acquisition will be subject to, among other things, ATRM becoming current with its SEC filings and the negotiation and execution of definitive documentation. The final terms of the ATRM Acquisition are subject to change depending on the outcome of the Company’s due diligence investigation and may differ from those reflected in the LOI. The ATRM Acquisition was approved by a special committee of independent directors of the Company.

As of September 10, 2018, Jeffrey E. Eberwein, the Chairman of the Company’s Board, owns approximately 17.4% of the outstanding common stock of ATRM. Mr. Eberwein also is the Chairman of the Board of Digirad and beneficially owns 544,152 shares of Digirad's common stock, or approximately 2.7% of the shares outstanding. Mr. Eberwein is also the Chief Executive Officer of Lone Star Value Management, LLC, which is the investment manager of LSVI. LSVI owns 216,094 shares of the Company’s Series B Stock and another 363,651 shares of Series B Stock are owned directly by LSV Co-Invest I. Through these relationships and other relationships with affiliated entities, Mr. Eberwein may be deemed the beneficial owner of the securities owned by LSVI and LSV Co-Invest I.

The Oxford Transaction is pursuant to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement between 56 Mechanic and RJF. The Oxford Lease has an initial term of 120 months, which is subject to extension. The base rental payments associated with the initial term under the Oxford Lease are estimated to be between $1.4 million and $1.6 million in the aggregate. ATRM has unconditionally guaranteed the performance of all obligations under each of the Leases to be performed by KBS, including, without limitation, the payment of all required rent.

Results of Operations

Net Loss. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was approximately $7.4 million as compared to net loss of approximately $5.3 million for the same period in 2016 . The increase was primarily due to a one-time non-cash write-off of goodwill of approximately $3.0 million in June 2017, compared to a one-time non-cash write-off of approximately $1.7 million in the prior period. For the three months ended September 30, 2017 , net loss was approximately $1.9 million as compared to net loss of approximately $2.5 million for the same period in 2016 . The decrease was primarily due to a one-time non-cash write-off of goodwill of approximately $1.7 million in September of 2016, without a similar write-off in the 2017 period.
Net Sales . Net sales were approximately $30.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared with approximately $17.9 million for the same period in 2016 . The increase was due to the addition of the EBGL operations, which were acquired in October 2016. The EBGL operations added approximately $12.7 million of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . KBS’s net sales were approximately $17.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as well as for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . Net sales were approximately $10.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to approximately $6.9 million for the same period in 2016 . The increase was due to the addition of the EBGL operations, which added approximately $4.3 million of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 .
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales amounted to approximately $28.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to approximately $17.2 million for the same period in 2016 . This increase of approximately $10.9 million was primarily due to the addition of the EBGL operations, which were acquired in October 2016, which added approximately $11.5 million in cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . This increase due to the EBGL acquisition was partially offset by a decrease of approximately $0.4 million in the cost of sales for KBS. This decrease in cost of sales for KBS as compared to the prior year reflects the results of KBS’s strategic initiatives including more selectivity in the commercial projects the Company undertakes, improved project pricing (implementing regular price increases to its customers) and ongoing cost control and efficiency measures, as disclosed in Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, resulting in lower direct and overhead costs. Cost of sales amounted to approximately $10.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to approximately $6.3 million for the same period in 2016 . This increase of approximately $3.8 million was primarily due to the addition of EBGL operations, which added approximately $4.0 million in cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 .
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense was approximately $5.1 million and $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The increase in SG&A expense of approximately $1.9 million is primarily attributable to the addition of the EBGL operations, which were acquired in October 2016, which added approximately $4.5 million of SG&A expenses (including approximately $0.3 million of amortization expense related to the acquired intangible assets) to the Company’s operating results. In addition, SG&A increased due to higher legal fees incurred related to post-acquisition related matters with respect to the EBGL Acquisition, as well as higher costs for KBS related to bank service charges incurred in 2017 which were incurred to a lesser extent in 2016. The bank service charges related to the KBS line of credit with Gerber Finance added in February 2016. These increases were offset by a $1.7 million decrease in SG&A expense at KBS due to ongoing cost control measures, as disclosed in Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. SG&A expense was approximately $1.5 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The increase in SG&A expense was primarily due to the addition of EBGL operations, which added approximately $0.5 million of SG&A expenses to the operating results.
Goodwill Impairment Charge. We completed a goodwill impairment assessment as of June 30, 2017, and determined that the value of goodwill related to the EBGL Acquisition was zero versus the carrying value of goodwill of $3.0 million as of that date. Since the acquisition of the EBGL operations, the results of those operations have underperformed the pre-acquisition expectations from a net sales, gross profit margin and net income perspective. Additionally, given the significant increase in raw material costs, more specifically, lumber and sheet goods, the projection of EBGL’s profits are projected to be lower than initially





expected. Accordingly, management’s updated projections for the EBGL operations could not support the carrying value of goodwill. Accordingly, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge in the amount of $3.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . A goodwill impairment charge of $1.7 million related to KBS was recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . See Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , for further details of the Company’s goodwill.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by approximately $0.9 million from approximately $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to approximately $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . Interest expense increased by approximately $0.2 million from approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 to approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 . The increase is attributable to the increase in overall debt for the company from approximately $12.9 million at September 30, 2016 to approximately $21.7 million immediately prior to the Preferred Stock Exchange on September 29, 2017. During the three months ended September 30, 2017 we converted $13.3 million of the Company’s outstanding debt, including accrued interest, to preferred stock. See Notes 13 and 14 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , for further details of the Company’s outstanding debt.
Income Taxes. Since 2009, we have maintained a valuation allowance to fully reserve our deferred tax assets. We expect to continue to maintain a full valuation allowance until we determine that we can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates our ability to realize these assets. To the extent we determine that the realization of some or all of these benefits is more likely than not based upon expected future taxable income, a portion or all of the valuation allowance will be reversed. Such a reversal would be recorded as an income tax benefit and, for some portion related to deductions for stock option exercises, a decrease in shareholders’ deficit. We recorded income tax expense of $10,000 and $7,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, which included deferred income tax expense associated with taxable differences related to our indefinite-lived assets which are omitted from the calculation of our valuation allowance due to the unpredictability of the reversal of these differences.
Change in Fair Value of Contingent Earn-outs, net. We assess the fair value of our contingent earn-outs at the end of each quarter. The contingent earn-out receivable included in our balance sheets at September 30, 2017 and 2016 is related to the transfer of our test handler product line to Boston Semi Automation LLC in April 2014. Change in fair value of contingent earn-out receivable during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 represented a net increase of approximately $0.04 million in the fair value of this earn-out as a result of our assessments to fair value. In addition, the contingent earn-out liability is related to the EBGL Acquisition in October 2016 as a contingent payment to the EBGL Sellers.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by approximately $0.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 .

Cash flows used in operating activities . In the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , cash flows used in operating activities were approximately $2.2 million , consisting primarily of our net loss of approximately $7.4 million which were partially offset by (i) the non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $3.0 million , (ii) non-cash PIK Interest of approximately $1.3 million , and (iii) approximately $1.1 million of non-cash depreciation amortization and share-based compensation expense, as well as $0.4 million for the non-cash changes in fair value and changes in net working capital of approximately $0.4 million . Working capital changes for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , netted to approximately $0.4 million and included a $1.3 million increase in trade accounts receivable due to the timing of customer payments and increased production activity in the quarter ended September 30, 2017 , offset by an increase in accounts payable of $1.0 million due to higher production levels.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , cash flows used in operating activities was approximately $1.8 million , consisting primarily of our net loss of approximately $5.3 million , partially offset by approximately $0.6 million in non-cash depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation expense and approximately $0.7 million in working capital changes.

Cash flows generated by investing activities . Net cash flows generated by investing activities were approximately $0.03 million for the nine -month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 . Net cash flows generated by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 included $0.4 million proceeds from earn-out consideration, partially offset by $0.4 million net purchases of property and equipment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , net cash flows generated by investing activities included $0.2 million proceeds from earn-out consideration and $0.1 million net sales of equipment.

Cash flows generated by financing activities . In the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , cash flows generated by financing activities was approximately $1.3 million , which included approximately $2.0 million of net advances under the KBS





Loan Agreement and the EBGL Loan Agreement, $0.6 million of proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, partially offset by the approximately $1.3 million to reduce principal balances of our long-term debt. In the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , cash flows generated by financing activities was approximately $1.0 million , which consisted primarily of $3.0 million of net advances under the KBS Loan Agreement, partially offset by principal repayments of approximately $1.9 million .
We acknowledge that the Company continues to face a challenging operating environment, and while we continue to focus on improving our overall profitability, we reported an operating loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 . We have incurred significant operating losses in recent years and, as of September 30, 2017 , we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $87.5 million .  Working capital has remained negative over the past several years. Cash used in operating activities remains negative for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . This has required us to generate funds from investing and financing activities. At September 30, 2017 , we had outstanding debt of approximately $10.1 million .
We have issued various promissory notes to finance our acquisitions of KBS and EBGL and to provide for our general working capital needs. As of September 30, 2017 , we had outstanding debt totaling approximately $10.1 million . Our debt primarily included (i) $3.5 million principal outstanding on KBS’s $4.0 million revolving credit facility under a loan and security agreement with Gerber Finance Inc. (“Gerber Finance”) (the “KBS Loan Agreement”) and $3.0 million principal outstanding under a loan and security agreement with Gerber Finance used to finance the acquisition of EBGL (the “Acquisition Loan Agreement”), (ii) $2.2 million principal outstanding on EBGL’s $3.0 million revolving credit facility under a revolving credit loan agreement with Premier Bank (the “Premier Loan Agreement”), which became effective on June 30, 2017 and replaced the prior $3.0 million revolving credit facility under a loan and security agreement with Gerber Finance (the “EBGL Loan Agreement”). We also have obligations to make $1.3 million in deferred cash payments to the sellers of EBGL, payable in monthly quarterly installments of $100,000 , inclusive of interest, through November 1, 2018.
Jeffrey E. Eberwein, Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), is the manager of Lone Star Value Investors GP, LLC (“LSVGP”), the general partner of Lone Star Value Investors, LP ("LSVI") and LSV Co-Invest I, and the sole member of LSVM , the investment manager of LSVI.
At the applicable test dates, we were not in compliance with the following financial covenants under our loan agreements: (i) a requirement for KBS to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 7:1 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 , as its actual leverage ratio for such period was negative; (ii) a requirement for KBS not to incur a net annual post-tax loss in any fiscal year of the loan agreements, as KBS’s net annual post-tax loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 was $3.2 million ; and (iii) a requirement to deliver the Company’s fiscal year-end financial statements reviewed by an independent certified accounting firm acceptable to Gerber Finance within 105 days from the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 . In August 2017 , Gerber Finance provided us with a waiver for these events. As of December 31, 2017 and 2018, KBS was not in compliance with the financial covenants requiring no net annual post-tax loss for KBS or the minimum leverage ratio covenant as of these test dates. Additionally, KBS was not in compliance with the requirement to deliver the Company's fiscal year-end financial statements reviewed by an independent certified accounting firm acceptable to Gerber Finance within 105 days from the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The occurrence of any event of default under the KBS Loan Agreement may result in KBS’s obligations under the KBS Loan Agreement becoming immediately due and payable. In April 2019 , we obtained a waiver from Gerber Finance for these events. While the Company currently projects that it will be in compliance with the covenant requiring no net annual post-tax loss for KBS, the Company projects that it will continue to not be in compliance with the minimum leverage ratio covenant. If the Company fails to comply with any financial covenants under our loan agreements with Gerber Finance going forward, Gerber Finance may demand the repayment of the credit facilities amount outstanding and any unpaid interest thereon.
During 2016, 2017 and 2018, we implemented several strategic initiatives, effected certain actions and continued to consider additional actions to improve the Company’s overall profitability and increase cash flows, including:
KBS’s strategic shift away from large commercial projects with significant site work to focus on its core competency of manufacturing modular buildings;
KBS’s efforts to improve operating efficiencies, including reconfiguring the South Paris factory to increase production, investments in automated equipment to reduce labor costs, implementing lean manufacturing techniques, and elimination of duplicate overhead costs through the shut-down of the Waterford factory;
Reduction in KBS workforce including manufacturing, sales, engineering and front-office staff;
KBS increased pricing on its base ranch model in 2017 , and in November 2017 , instituted a 6% lumber surcharge on all new orders to help offset the significant rise in lumber and other raw materials costs;





KBS has implemented a new dynamic pricing model for 2018 , which is designed to determine its bid price quoted to customers on the most current cost information to better ensure full recovery of its manufacturing costs and improve overall gross margins;
In November 2018, EBGL made the final payment due to the sellers of EBGL, freeing up $100,000 per month of cash flows to be used for operations;
In 2017 , we instituted a lumber hedging program for EBGL to assist in preserving existing margins against the potential large fluctuations in lumber raw material prices;
In August 2016 , we amended certain of our debt agreements to allow the Company to pay PIK Interest on approximately $11 million of our debt, reducing strain on current cash flows;
In June 2017 , we refinanced EBGL’s revolving credit facility and amended the terms of our agreement with the EBGL Sellers providing for deferred payments to obtain more favorable lending and payment terms and reduce total fees paid under these agreements;
As disclosed in Note 16 , in September 2017 , we converted $13.3 million of the Company’s outstanding debt, including accrued interest, to preferred stock;
As disclosed in Note 20 , in January 2018 and in June 2018 , the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $1.4 million to LSV Co-Invest I to provide additional working capital for the Company;
In April 2019, KBS and EBGL executed sale leasebacks of several of its real estate properties (see further discussion in Note 20); and
We continue to look for opportunities to refinance our remaining debt on more favorable terms.
On September 10, 2018 ATRM entered into a non-binding LOI relating to the acquisition by Digirad . Under the terms contemplated in the LOI, ATRM stockholders will receive consideration consisting of 0.4 shares of Digirad common stock for each share of outstanding ATRM common stock acquired by the Company in the ATRM Acquisition (see Note 20 for additional information). We anticipate the ATRM Acquisition to close in the third quarter of 2019.
Our historical operating results indicate substantial doubt exists related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We believe that the actions discussed, have already occurred or are probable of occurring, and alleviate the substantial doubt raised by our historical operating results, as well as satisfy our estimated liquidity needs for the twelve months from the issuance of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, we cannot predict with certainty the outcome of our actions to generate liquidity, including the availability of additional debt financing, or whether such actions would generate the expected liquidity as currently planned.
If we continue to experience operating losses, and we are not able to generate additional liquidity through the mechanisms described above or through some combination of other actions, while not expected, we may not be able to continue operations. Additionally, a failure to generate additional liquidity could negatively impact our access to materials or services that are important to the operation of our business. In addition, these losses could further trigger violations of covenants under our debt agreements, resulting in accelerated payment of these loans.
There can be no assurance that our existing cash reserves, together with funds generated by our operations and any future financings, will be sufficient to satisfy our debt payment obligations, to avoid liquidity issues and/or fund operations beyond this fiscal year. Our inability to generate funds from our operations and/or obtain financing sufficient to satisfy our payment obligations may result in our obligations being accelerated by our lenders, which would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Given these uncertainties, there can be no assurance that our existing cash reserves will be sufficient to avoid liquidity issues and/or fund operations beyond this fiscal year.
Although not a binding commitment, LSVM has advised us of its present intention to continue to financially support the Company in the event that additional financing is required. In 2014 , 2015 , 2016 , 2017 and 2018 , LSVM has provided financial support in the form of financing through various debt agreements disclosed in Note 13 . Based on the previous commitments, management believes that additional financing may be provided by LSVM or its affiliates, if necessary, in the future. In addition, it should be noted that LSVM is a related party to Digirad, with whom ATRM has entered into a LOI, as mentioned above.

Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2017, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Description of Material Weaknesses
In April 2014, we acquired the assets and assumed certain liabilities related to the operations of KBS and subsequently, in October 2016, we acquired certain assets related to the operations of EBGL.  Prior to the acquisitions, the KBS and EBGL operations were privately-owned businesses with very limited administrative and accounting resources, outdated accounting software and generally weak accounting processes and internal control procedures.  Specifically, material weaknesses existed in KBS’s and EBGL’s financial reporting processes with respect to (1) control over accounts payable cut-offs, (2) inventory accounting, (3) contract accounting and (4) inadequate segregation of duties in certain accounting processes, including the payroll, cash receipts and disbursements processes and management of user access rights in our accounting system, partly as a result of our limited size and accounting staff.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses
We are working to remediate these material weaknesses.  Since the April 2014 acquisition of KBS, we have implemented organizational changes to strengthen the accounting and other administrative functions at KBS and improvements in processes, procedures and controls, including in the areas of payroll processing, contract accounting, proper transaction cutoffs, inventory controls, financial reporting and management oversight. In January 2016, we installed a new management information system at KBS that we believe, when fully implemented, will significantly improve our reporting and controls. At EBGL, we installed a new upgraded financial management information system, which was completed in September 2017. The upgrade of the old system, which was over 20 years old, is expected to improve EBGL's financial reporting capabilities and provide enhanced controls. In addition, at EBGL, we continue to implement improvements in internal processes, procedures and controls and have established regular reporting and routine management oversight.
Although significant progress has been made in improving the controls at KBS, additional time is required to fully develop adequate processes, procedures and controls and to determine whether such processes and controls are effective. At EBGL, we have made significant improvements since the acquisition, however, the improvements are at an early stage, so we expect it will take significant additional time to fully develop and implement an adequate system of internal controls. We will continue to work to improve such processes, procedures and controls, and will disclose in future periods the progress we have made in our efforts to remediate these material weaknesses.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
As a result of the control deficiencies at KBS and EBGL discussed above, we determined that we have material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We are working to remediate these material weaknesses as discussed above.







PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
 
The Company is and may become involved in various lawsuits as well as other certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Information regarding certain material proceedings is provided below.
UTHE Technology Corporation v. Aetrium Incorporated
Since December 1993, an action brought by UTHE Technology Corporation (“UTHE”) against ATRM and its then sales manager for Southeast Asia (“Sales Manager”), asserting federal securities claims, a RICO claim, and certain state law claims, had been stayed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. UTHE’s claims were based on its allegations that four former employees of a Singapore company, which UTHE formerly owned, conspired to and did divert business from the subsidiary, and directed that business to themselves and a secret company they had formed, which forced UTHE to sell its subsidiary shares to the former employee defendants at a distressed price. The complaint alleged that ATRM and the Sales Manager participated in the conspiracy carried out by the former employee defendants. In December 1993, the case was dismissed as to the former employee defendants because of a contract requiring UTHE and them to arbitrate their claims in Singapore. The district court stayed the case against ATRM and the Sales Manager pending the resolution of arbitration in Singapore involving UTHE and three of the former employee defendants, but not involving ATRM or the Sales Manager. ATRM received notice in March 2012 that awards were made in the Singapore arbitration against one or more of the former employee defendants who were parties to the arbitration. In June 2012, UTHE filed a motion to reopen the case against ATRM and the Sales Manager and to lift the stay, which the court granted. On September 13, 2013, the court entered final judgment dismissing all remaining claims UTHE asserted against ATRM in the litigation. On September 23, 2013, UTHE appealed the district court judgment to the United States Court of Appeal for the Ninth Circuit only as to the dismissal of UTHE’s RICO claim. The appeal was argued in a court hearing on November 19, 2015. On December 11, 2015, the court of appeal issued an order reversing the district court’s grant of summary judgment of UTHE’s RICO claim and remanded the case back to the district court for further proceedings. On July 14, 2016, ATRM filed a motion for summary judgment in the district court seeking dismissal of the sole remaining RICO claim. On August 26, 2016, the district court granted ATRM’s motion for summary judgment and dismissed the case. On September 19, 2016, UTHE filed its appeal to the Ninth Circuit of the district court’s grant of summary judgment and dismissal. The parties completed the appellate briefing on February 13, 2017. Oral arguments were held by the appellate court on February 14, 2018. On July 2, 2018, the Ninth District Court of Appeals rendered its decision affirming the District Court’s opinion and upheld the dismissal of the case against ATRM. UTHE did not appeal that decision to the Supreme Court of the United States by the October 1, 2018 deadline. As such, this Ninth Circuit affirmance of the case dismissal stands, and the lawsuit has been successfully and completely defeated by the Company.
KBE Building Corporation v. KBS Builders, Inc., and ATRM Holdings, Inc., et. al.
At the time of the KBS acquisition in April 2014, KBS purchased receivables for a construction project known as the Nelton Court Housing Project (“Nelton Court”) in Hartford, CT, and also performed certain “punch-list” and warranty work. Modular units for Nelton Court were supplied by KBS Building Systems, Inc. (“KBS-BSI”) pursuant to a contract with KBE Building Corporation (“KBE”). KBE has asserted claims against KBS-BSI, KBS and ATRM arising out of alleged delays, and for the repair of certain alleged defects in the modular units supplied to the project. KBE’s claim seeks an unspecified amount of damages. The action has been transferred to the complex litigation docket of the Hartford Superior Court. On December 18, 2017, KBS was notified that a global settlement had been reached between all defendants and the plaintiff. Under the settlement, the Company’s insurance carriers have agreed to pay $0.3 million to the plaintiff in full settlement on KBS’s behalf. KBS paid a $10,000 deductible to its insurance carriers for this claim.
From time to time, in the ordinary course of ATRM’s business, it is party to various other disputes, claims and legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, based on information available at this time, such disputes, claims and proceedings will not have a material effect on ATRM’s consolidated financial statements.

Except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 3, the Dividend Rate shall be equal to the Stated Rate. Such dividends shall accrue and accumulate, whether or not earned or declared, on each issued and outstanding share of the Series B Preferred Stock from (and including) the original date of issuance of such share and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last calendar day of each Dividend Period, except for dividends for the Dividend Period ending September 30, 2017, which shall be payable at the end of the next Dividend Period (each such day being hereinafter called a “ Dividend Payment Date ”); provided that (i) Series B Preferred Stock issued during any Dividend Period after the Dividend Record Date for such Dividend Period shall only begin to accrue dividends on the first day of the next Dividend Period; and provided, further, that (ii) if any Dividend Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the dividend that would otherwise have been payable on such Dividend Payment Date (if declared) may be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if paid on such Dividend Payment Date, and no interest or additional dividends or other sums shall accrue on the

3
4066855-8



amount so payable from such Dividend Payment Date to such next succeeding Business Day. Any dividend payable on the Series B Preferred Stock for any partial Dividend Period shall be prorated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Dividends shall be payable to holders of record as they appear in the stock records of the Corporation at the close of business on the applicable record date, which shall be the 15 th day of the month in which the applicable Dividend Payment Date occurs, or such other date designated by the Board or an officer of the Corporation duly authorized by the Board for the payment of dividends that is not more than 30 nor less than 10 days prior to such Dividend Payment Date (each such date, a “ Dividend Record Date ”).
(b)      Upon the occurrence of four accumulated, accrued and unpaid Dividend Defaults, whether consecutive or non-consecutive, then:
(i)      the Dividend Rate shall increase to the Penalty Rate for each subsequent Dividend Payment Date thereafter until such time as the Corporation has paid all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock in full and has paid accrued dividends for the two most recently completed Dividend Periods in full in a timely manner, at which time the Dividend Rate shall revert to the Stated Rate for cash dividends; and
(ii)      until such time as the Dividend Rate reverts to the Stated Rate pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph (b), the holders of Series B Preferred Stock will have the voting rights and director election rights described in Section 7(a) hereof.
After the Dividend Rate reverts to the Stated Rate pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph (b), the Dividend Rate shall not again increase to the Penalty Rate for cash dividends and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall not again have the voting rights and director election rights described in Section 7(a) hereof until the subsequent occurrence of an additional four accumulated, accrued and unpaid Dividend Defaults, whether consecutive or non-consecutive.
(c)      No dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock will be declared by the Corporation or paid or set apart for payment by the Corporation at such time as the terms and provisions of Senior Shares or any agreement of the Corporation, including any agreement relating to its indebtedness, prohibit such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment or provide that such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment would constitute a breach thereof or a default thereunder, or if such declaration, payment or setting aside of funds is restricted or prohibited under applicable law; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Dividend Default may be deemed to occur and dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall continue to accrue and accumulate regardless of whether: (i) any or all of the foregoing restrictions exist; (ii) the Corporation has earnings or profits; (iii) there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends; or (iv) such dividends are authorized by the Board. Accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will accumulate as of the Dividend Payment Date on which they first become payable.
(d)      Except as provided in the next sentence, if any Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding, no dividends will be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any Parity Shares or

4
4066855-8



Junior Shares, unless all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are contemporaneously declared and paid, or declared and a sum of cash sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for such payment, for all past Dividend Periods with respect to which full dividends were not paid on the Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with this Section 3. When dividends are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart for payment) upon the Series B Preferred Stock and upon all Parity Shares, all dividends declared, paid or set apart for payment upon the Series B Preferred Stock and all such Parity Shares shall be declared and paid pro rata or declared and set apart for payment pro rata so that the amount of dividends declared per share of Series B Preferred Stock and per share of such Parity Shares shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated dividends per share of Series B Preferred Stock and such other Parity Shares (which shall not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid dividends for prior dividend periods if such other Parity Shares do not bear cumulative dividends) bear to each other. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on Series B Preferred Stock which may be in arrears, whether at the Stated Rate or at the Penalty Rate.
(e)      Except as provided in paragraph (d) of this Section 3, unless all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are contemporaneously declared and paid, or declared and a sum of cash sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for such payment, for all past Dividend Periods with respect to which full dividends were not paid on the Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with this Section 3, no dividends (other than in Common Stock or Junior Shares ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to dividends and upon liquidation) may be declared or paid or set apart for payment upon the Common Stock or any Junior Shares or Parity Shares, nor shall any Common Stock or any Junior Shares or Parity Shares be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired directly or indirectly for any consideration (or any monies be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such stock) by the Corporation (except by conversion into or exchange for Junior Shares or by redemption, purchase or acquisition of stock under any employee benefit plan of the Corporation).
(f)      Holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividend in excess of all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock as described in this Section 3. Any dividend payment made on the Series B Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accumulated accrued and unpaid dividend due with respect to such shares which remains payable at the time of such payment.
Section 4.      Liquidation Preference.
(a)      Subject to the rights of the holders of Senior Shares and Parity Shares, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or distribution of the assets of the Corporation (whether capital or surplus) shall be made to or set apart for the holders of Junior Shares, as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, each holder of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an amount of cash per share of the Series B Preferred Stock equal to the Stated Value plus an amount in cash equal to all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not earned or declared) to the date of final distribution to such holders. If, upon

5
4066855-8



any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation, or proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount aforesaid and liquidating payments on any other shares of any class or series of Parity Shares as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and any such other Parity Shares ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such Series B Preferred Stock and any such other Parity Shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. For the purposes of this Section 4, none of (i) a consolidation or merger of the Corporation with one or more corporations or other entities, (ii) a sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets or (iii) a statutory share exchange shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, of the Corporation.
(b)      Written notice of any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the amounts distributable in such circumstances shall be payable, shall be given by first class mail, postage pre-paid, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of the Series B Preferred Stock at the respective address of such holders as the same shall appear on the stock transfer records of the Corporation.
Subject to the rights of the holders of Senior Shares and Parity Shares upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, after payment shall have been made in full to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, as provided in this Section 4, any other series or class or classes of Junior Shares shall, subject to the respective terms and provisions (if any) applying thereto, be entitled to receive any and all assets remaining to be paid or distributed, and the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to share therein.
Section 5.      Status of Acquired Shares . All shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of undesignated Preferred Stock of the Corporation.
Section 6.      Ranking . Any class or series of shares of stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to rank:
(a)      prior to the Series B Preferred Stock, as to the payment of dividends and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if the holders of such class or series shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference or priority to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock (“ Senior Shares ”);
(b)      on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock, as to the payment of dividends and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, whether or not the dividend rates, dividend payment dates or redemption or liquidation prices per share thereof be different from those of the Series B Preferred Stock, if the holders of such class or series and the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends and of amounts distributable upon liquidation,

6
4066855-8



dissolution or winding up in proportion to their respective amounts of accrued and unpaid dividends per share or liquidation preferences, without preference or priority one over the other (“ Parity Shares ”); and
(c) junior to the Series B Preferred Stock, as to the payment of dividends and as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if such class or series shall be the Common Stock or any other class or series of shares of stock of the Corporation now or hereafter issued and outstanding over which the Series B Preferred Stock have preference or priority in the payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (“ Junior Shares ”).
Section 7.      Voting Rights; Director Election Rights.
(a)      The Series B Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights, except as set forth in this Section 7. In the circumstances identified in paragraph (b) of Section 3 hereof, the number of directors then constituting the Board shall increase by at least two, if not already increased by reason of similar types of provisions with respect to Parity Shares which are entitled to similar voting rights, and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, together with the holders of shares of every other series of Parity Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable (any such other series, the “ Voting Preferred Shares ”), voting together as a single class regardless of series, shall be entitled to elect two directors. Such directors shall be elected at any annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof, or at a special meeting of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Voting Preferred Shares called as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section 7; in each instance in accordance with the Bylaws. Such voting rights shall continue unless and until terminated as provided in paragraph (b) of Section 3 hereof, whereupon the terms of all persons elected as directors to the Board by the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Voting Preferred Shares shall terminate effective immediately and the number of directors constituting the Board shall decrease accordingly.
(b)      At any time after the voting power conferred in paragraph (a) of this Section 7 shall have been so vested in the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and the Voting Preferred Shares, the Secretary of the Corporation may, and upon the written request of any holder of Series B Preferred Stock (addressed to the Secretary at the principal office of the Corporation) shall, call a special meeting of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and of the Voting Preferred Shares for the election of the two directors to be elected by them to the Board as herein provided, such call to be made by notice similar to that provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation for a special meeting of the shareholders or as required by law. If any such special meeting required to be called as above provided shall not be called by the Secretary within 60 days after receipt of any such request, then any holder of Series B Preferred Stock may call such meeting, upon the notice above provided, and for that purpose shall have access to the share records of the Corporation for the Series B Preferred Stock and Voting Preferred Shares. The directors elected at any such special meeting shall hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in lieu thereof if such term shall not have previously terminated as above provided. If any vacancy shall occur among the directors elected by holders of Series B Preferred Stock and holders of the Voting Preferred Shares, a successor shall be elected by the Board, upon the nomination of the then-remaining director elected

7
4066855-8



by holders of Series B Preferred Stock and holders of the Voting Preferred Shares or the successor of such remaining director, to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof if such term shall not have previously terminated as above provided.
(c)      So long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Voting Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, acting as a single class regardless of series, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary for effecting or validating:
(i)      Any amendment, alteration or repeal of any of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation or this Statement that materially and adversely affects the rights, preferences or voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Voting Preferred Shares; provided, however, that (A) the amendment of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation so as to authorize or create, or to increase the authorized amount of, the Series B Preferred Stock or any Parity Shares shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the rights, preferences or voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Voting Preferred Shares and (B) the amendment of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation so as to authorize or create, or to increase the authorized amount of any Junior Shares shall not be deemed to materially or adversely affect the rights, preferences or voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Voting Preferred Shares;
(ii)      A statutory share exchange that affects the Series B Preferred Stock, a consolidation with or merger of the Corporation into another entity, or a consolidation with or merger of another entity into the Corporation, unless in each such case each share of Series B Preferred Stock (A) shall remain outstanding without a material and adverse change to its terms, voting powers, preferences and rights or (B) shall be converted into or exchanged for preferred shares of the surviving entity having preferences, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption thereof identical to that of a share of Series B Preferred Stock (except for changes that do not materially and adversely affect the Series B Preferred Stock);
(iii)      The authorization, reclassification or creation of, or the increase in the authorized amount of, any Senior Shares, other Parity Shares or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Senior Shares or other Parity Shares; or
(iv)      an increase to the size of the Board above five (5) directors other than as set forth herein.
For purposes of this Section 7, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall have one vote per share, except that when any other series of Voting Preferred Shares shall have the right to vote with the Series B Preferred Stock as a single class on any matter, then the Series B Preferred Stock and such other series shall have with respect to such matters such number of votes equal to the stated liquidation preference thereof divided by the Stated Value. Except as set forth herein, the Series B Preferred Stock shall not have any relative, participating, optional or other special voting

8
4066855-8



rights and powers other than as set forth herein, and the consent of the holders thereof shall not be required for the taking of any corporate action.
No amendment to these terms of the Series B Preferred Stock shall require the vote of the holders of Common Stock (except as required by law) or any series of Preferred Stock other than the Voting Preferred Shares.
Section 8.      Information Rights . During any period in which the Corporation is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall (a) transmit by mail to all holders of Series B Preferred Stock, as their names and addresses appear in the Corporation’s record books and without cost to such holders, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports that the Corporation would have been required to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Corporation was subject to such sections (other than any exhibits that would have been required); and (b) promptly upon written request, supply copies of such reports to any prospective holder of Series B Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall mail the reports to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock within 15 days after the respective dates by which the Corporation would have been required to file the reports with the SEC if the Corporation were then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, assuming the Corporation is a “ non-accelerated filer ” in accordance with the Exchange Act.
Section 9.      Record Holders .

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises, covenants and understandings set forth in this Amendment and the benefits to be received from the performance of such promises, covenants and understandings, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:






AGREEMENTS

1.    Lender and Borrower reaffirm, consent and agree to all of the terms and conditions of the Credit Documents as binding, effective and enforceable according to their stated terms, except to the extent that such Credit Documents are hereby expressly modified by this Amendment.

2.    In the case of any ambiguity or inconsistency between the Credit Documents and this Amendment, the language and interpretation of this Amendment is to be deemed binding and paramount.

3.    The Credit Documents (and any exhibits thereto) are hereby amended as follows:

A.      As to the Loan Agreement:

(i)     Section 1.1 is hereby amended to read as follows with respect to the
following definition:

Equipment Availability ” means the amount of such Revolving Credit Advances against Eligible Equipment as set forth on the attached Schedule VI, and the amount of such future Revolving Credit Advances against Eligible Equipment as may be added to Schedule VI from time to time in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, based upon seventy percent (70%) of the appraised forced liquidation value of such Eligible Equipment, as determined by an appraiser then acceptable to Lender, each of which amounts shall be reduced in equal monthly installments as set forth on Schedule VI, as such schedule may be amended by the Lender from time to time.

7.    This Amendment is binding upon, inures to the benefit of, and is enforceable by the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties. This Amendment is not assignable by Borrower or Guarantor without the prior written consent of Lender.

8.    To the extent that any provision of this Amendment is determined by any court or legislature to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or part either in a particular case or in all cases, such provision or part thereof is to be deemed surplusage. If that occurs, it does not have the effect of rendering any other provision of this Amendment invalid or unenforceable.

(e)      Ownership of the Note . The Holder is the beneficial owner of its Notes, free and clear of all liens (other than obligations pursuant to this Agreement).
(f)      Purchase Entirely for Own Account .

4




(g)      Investment Experience . The Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business affairs that the Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares. The Holder is either a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act or an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act, and was not organized for the purpose of acquiring the Shares. The Holder has previously invested in securities similar to the Shares. In making its decision to invest in the Shares, the Holder has relied upon independent investigations made by the Holder and, to the extent believed by the Holder to be appropriate, the Holder’s representatives, including the Holder’s own professional, tax and other advisors. The Holder and its representatives have been given the opportunity to examine documents and to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the Company and its representatives concerning the terms and conditions of its investment in the Shares. The Holder is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Shares and is presently able to afford the complete loss of such investment. The Holder acknowledges that the Company is relying on the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties in the offering of the Shares to the Holder without first having registered the Shares under the Securities Act.
(h)      Restricted Securities . It has been advised by the Company that (i) the offer and sale of the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act; (ii) the offer and sale of the Shares are intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to either Rule 144A or Regulation D under the Securities Act; and (iii) there is no established market for the Shares, and it is not anticipated that there will be any active public market for the Shares in the foreseeable future. The Holder is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

WHEREAS , the rights, preferences and restrictions of the Preferred Stock are set forth in the Statement of Designation of 10.00% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock of the Company (the “ Statement of Designation ”).
NOW, THEREFORE , in consideration of the mutual promises, representations, warranties, covenants and conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement and this Agreement, the Company and Lone Star Value agree as follows:
1. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Exchange Agreement or the Statement of Designation, as applicable. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

Holder ” and “ Holders ” shall include Lone Star Value and any transferee or assignee thereof owning or having the right to acquire Registrable Securities (as defined below) which securities have not been sold to the public and to whom the registration rights conferred by this Agreement have been transferred in compliance with this Agreement; provided that neither such person nor any affiliate of such person is registered as a broker or dealer under Section 15(a) of Exchange Act, or a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.




The terms “ register, ” “ registered ” and “ registration ” shall refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or similar document in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and the declaration or ordering of the effectiveness of such registration statement or document.
Registrable Securities ” shall mean: (i) the Shares held by a Holder; and (ii) any other securities issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, the Shares; provided, however, that securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and only for so long as they (A) have not been sold in a transaction in which the Holder’s rights under this Agreement were not assigned, (B) have not been disposed of pursuant to a registration statement declared effective by the SEC, (C) have not been sold in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act so that all transfer restrictions and restrictive legends with respect thereto are removed upon the consummation of such sale and (D) may not be disposed of under Rule 144 without restriction.

2.      Registration Requirements .
(a)      At any time after October 15, 2018, upon the written request of the Holders of at least sixty-six and two thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 (or on Form S-1 if the Company is then ineligible to use Form S-3) pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act covering resales by the Holders as selling stockholders (not underwriters) of the Registrable Securities (the “ Registration Statement ”) as soon as reasonably practicable following the Company’s receipt of such written request, but in no event later than sixty (60) days thereafter. Thereafter the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement and other filings to be declared effective as soon as possible, and in any event no later than the following date, as appropriate (the “ Required Effective Date ”): (A) if the SEC notifies the Company that the SEC will not review the Registration Statement, the Required Effective Date shall be five (5) days after the SEC provides such notification, or (B) if the SEC notifies the Company that it

2




will review the Registration Statement, then the Required Effective Date shall be sixty (60) days after the Company receives the first written comments on the Registration Statement from the SEC. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company will promptly respond to all SEC comments, inquiries and requests, and shall request acceleration of effectiveness at the earliest possible date.
(b)      In connection with the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as soon as practicable:
(i)      Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement and notify the Holders of the filing and effectiveness of such Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements.
(ii)      Furnish to each Holder that has Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement such number of copies of a current prospectus conforming with the requirements of the Securities Act, copies of the Registration Statement, any amendment or supplement thereto and any documents incorporated by reference therein and such other documents as such Holder may reasonably require in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by such Holder.
(iii)      Register and qualify the securities covered by such Registration Statement under the securities or blue sky laws of all domestic jurisdictions; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.
(iv)      Notify promptly each Holder that has Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement of the happening of any event (but not the substance or details of any such event) of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus (including any supplements thereto or thereof) included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing (each an “ Event ”), and use its best efforts to promptly update and/or correct such prospectus. Each Holder will hold in confidence and will not make any disclosure of any such Event and any related information disclosed by the Company.
(v)      Notify each Holder of the issuance by the SEC or any state securities commission or agency of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the threat or initiation of any proceedings for that purpose. The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order and, if any stop order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible time.
(vi)      List the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement with all securities exchange(s) and/or markets on which the Common Stock is then listed, to the extent such listing is permissible under the rules of such securities exchange or market, and prepare and file any corresponding required filings with such securities exchange or market.

3




(c)      Notwithstanding the obligations under Section 2(b)(iv) or any provision of this Agreement, if (i) in the good faith judgment of the Company, following consultation with legal counsel, it would be detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for resales of Registrable Securities to be made pursuant to the Registration Statement due to the existence of a material development or potential material development involving the Company that the Company would be obligated to disclose in the Registration Statement, which disclosure would be premature or otherwise inadvisable at such time or would have a material adverse effect upon the Company and its stockholders, or (ii) in the good faith judgment of the Company, it would adversely affect or require premature disclosure of the filing of a Company-initiated registration of any class of its equity securities, then the Company will have the right to suspend the use of the Registration Statement for a period of not more than thirty (30) consecutive calendar days, but only if the Company reasonably concludes, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to suspend the use of the Registration Statement as such would create a risk of a material liability or violation under applicable securities laws or regulations.
(d)      During the registration period, the Company will make available, upon reasonable advance notice during normal business hours, for inspection by any Holder whose Registrable Securities are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “ Records ”) as reasonably necessary to enable each such Holder to exercise its due diligence responsibility in connection with or related to the contemplated offering. The Company will cause its officers, directors and employees to supply all information that any Holder may reasonably request for purposes of performing such due diligence.
(e)      Each Holder will hold in confidence, use only in connection with the contemplated offering and not make any disclosure of all Records and other information that the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Holders are so notified, unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, (iii) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement (to the knowledge of the relevant Holder), (iv) the Records or other information was developed independently by the Holder without breach of this Agreement, (v) the information was known to the Holder before receipt of such information from the Company, or (vi) the information was disclosed to the Holder by a third party not under an obligation of confidentiality. However, a Holder may make disclosure of such Records and other information to any attorney, adviser, or other third party retained by it that needs to know the information as determined in good faith by the Holder (each, a “ Holder Representative ”), if the Holder advises each Holder Representative of the confidentiality provisions of this Section 2(e), but the Holder will be liable for any act or omission of a Holder Representative relative to such information as if the act or omission was that of the Holder. The Company is not required to disclose any confidential information in the Records to any Holder unless and until such Holder has entered into a confidentiality agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to the Company) with the Company with respect thereto, substantially to the effect of this Section 2(e). Unless legally prohibited from so doing, each Holder will, upon learning that disclosure of Records containing confidential

4




information is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at the Company’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential. Nothing herein will be deemed to limit the Holders’ ability to sell Registrable Securities in a manner that is otherwise consistent with applicable laws and regulations.
(f)      If the Holders become entitled, pursuant to an event described in clause (ii) of the definition of Registrable Securities, to receive any securities in respect of Registrable Securities that were already included in a Registration Statement, subsequent to the date such Registration Statement is declared effective, and the Company is unable under the securities laws to add such securities to the then effective Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly file, in accordance with the procedures set forth herein, an additional Registration Statement with respect to such newly Registrable Securities. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such additional Registration Statement, when filed, to become effective within sixty (60) days of the date that the need to file the Registration Statement arose. All of the registration rights and remedies under this Agreement shall apply to the registration of such newly reserved shares and such new Registrable Securities.
3.      Expenses of Registration . All Registration Expenses in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance with registration pursuant to this Agreement shall be borne by the Company, and all Selling Expenses of a Holder shall be borne by such Holder.
4.      Registration on Form S-3 . The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take such action as is necessary to enable the Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities.
5.      Registration Period . The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of any Registration Statement until the earlier of such time that all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby (x) have been sold by the Holders or (y) are permitted to be disposed of by each Holder under Rule 144 without restriction.
6.      Indemnification.
(a)      Company Indemnity . The Company will indemnify each Holder, each of its officers, directors, agents and partners, and each person controlling each of the foregoing, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, any underwriter, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any final prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company files any amendment or supplement thereto with the SEC), Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement or any post-effective amendment thereof or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act

5




or any state securities law or in either case, any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and will reimburse each Holder, each of its officers, directors, agents and partners, and each person controlling each of the foregoing, for any reasonable legal fees of a single counsel and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to a Holder to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on (i) any untrue statement or omission based upon written information furnished to the Company by such Holder or underwriter (if any) therefor and stated to be specifically for use therein, (ii) any failure by any Holder to comply with prospectus delivery requirements or the Securities Act or Exchange Act or any other law or legal requirement applicable to them or any covenant or agreement contained in the Exchange Agreement, the Statement of Designation or this Agreement or (iii) an offer of sale of the Shares occurring during a period in which sales under the Registration Statement are suspended as permitted by this Agreement. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).
(b)      Holder Indemnity . Each Holder will, severally but not jointly, if Registrable Securities held by it are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors, officers, agents and partners, and any other stockholder selling securities pursuant to the Registration Statement and any of its directors, officers, agents, partners, and any person who controls such stockholder within the meaning of the Securities Act or Exchange Act, and each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a Registration Statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, each other Holder (if any), and each of their officers, directors and partners, and each person controlling such other Holder(s) against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on (i) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such final prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company files any amendment or supplement thereto with the SEC), Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement or any post- effective amendment thereof or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made or (ii) failure by any Holder to comply with prospectus delivery requirements or the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any other law or legal requirement applicable to them or any covenant or agreement contained in the Exchange Agreement, the Statement of Designation or this Agreement, and will reimburse the Company and such other Holder(s) and their directors, officers and partners, underwriters or control persons for any reasonable legal fees or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such final prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company files any amendment or supplement thereto with the SEC), Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement or any post-effective amendment thereof in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such

6

The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claims, losses, damages or liabilities if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).
(c)      Procedure . Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 6 (the “ Indemnified Party ”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim in any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 6 except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially and adversely affected by such failure to provide notice. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such non-privileged information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.
7.      Contribution . If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 herein is unavailable to the Indemnified Parties in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein (other than by reason of the exceptions provided therein), then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as between the Company on the one hand and any Holder(s) on the other, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and of such Holder(s) in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of any Holder(s) on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by such Holder(s).
In no event shall the obligation of any Indemnifying Party to contribute under this Section 7 exceed the amount that such Indemnifying Party would have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if the indemnification provided for under Section 6(a) or 6(b) hereof had been available under the circumstances.

7




The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraphs. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraphs shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount equal to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement in question. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
8.      Survival . The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in Sections 6 and 7 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement and (ii) the consummation of the sale or initial successive resales of the Registrable Securities.
9.      Information by Holders . As a condition to the obligations of the Company to complete any registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of each Holder, such Holder will furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended methods of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as is reasonably required by the Company to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities. At least ten (10) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement for any registration under this Agreement, the Company will notify each Holder of the information the Company requires from that Holder whether or not such Holder has elected to have any of its Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement. If the Company has not received the requested information from a Holder by the business day prior to the anticipated filing date, then the Company may file the Registration Statement without including Registrable Securities of that Holder.
10.      Further Assurances . Each Holder will cooperate with the Company, as reasonably requested by the Company, in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Holder has notified the Company in writing of such Holder’s irrevocable election to exclude all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.
11.      Suspension of Sales . Upon receipt of any notice from the Company under Section 2(b)(iv) or 2(c), each Holder will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until (i) it receives copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Sections 2(b)(iv) or (ii) the Company advises the Holder that a suspension of sales under Section 2(c) has terminated. If so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy all copies in the Holder’s possession (other than a limited number of file copies) of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities that is current at the time of receipt of such notice.

8




12.      Transfer or Assignment . Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The rights granted to the Holders by the Company under this Agreement to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities may be transferred or assigned (in whole or in part) to a transferee or assignee of the Registrable Securities, and all other rights granted to the Holders by the Company hereunder may be transferred or assigned to any transferee or assignee of the Registrable Securities; provided in each case that (i) the Company is given written notice by the Holder at the time of or within ten (10) days after such transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of said transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned and (ii) the transferee or assignee of such rights agrees in writing to be bound by the registration provisions of this Agreement. In each case, such rights may only be transferred together with the underlying Registrable Securities in a transfer permitted by the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
13.      Miscellaneous.
(a)      Remedies . The Company and the Holders acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.

The Company and the Holders consent to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing in this paragraph shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
