ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On October 30, 2017, Synalloy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Synalloy”), and its subsidiaries entered into a Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Branch Banking and Trust Company (“BB&T”). The description of the Credit Agreement is set forth in Item 2.03 of this report and is incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.
The description of the Credit Agreement contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of such agreement. The Company will file the Credit Agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to its next Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
On October 30, 2017, Synalloy and its subsidiaries, as borrowers, entered into the Credit Agreement with BB&T to refinance and increase its asset-based revolving line of credit (the “Line”) from $45.0 million to $65.0 million. The Line will be used to finance working capital needs and as a source for funding future acquisitions. The new maturity date is October 30, 2020. Interest on the Line is calculated using the One Month LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus 1.85%. Borrowings under the Line are limited to an amount equal to a Borrowing Base (as defined in the Credit Agreement) calculation that includes eligible accounts receivable and inventory.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Synalloy was required to pledge all of its tangible and intangible properties, including the stock and membership interests of its subsidiaries. Covenants under the Credit Agreement include maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a limitation on Synalloy’s maximum amount of capital expenditures per year, which is in line with currently projected needs. Management does not believe that these covenants and restrictions will have an adverse effect on its operations.
The description of the Credit Agreement contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of such agreement. The Company will file the Credit Agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to its next Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
