SECOND AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

TO THE

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

BETWEEN

GENERAL EMPLOYMENT ENTERPRISES, INC., TRIAD PERSONNEL SERVICES, INC.,

BUSINESS MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL, INC., BMPS, INC., BMCH, INC., BMCHPA, INC.,

AND TRIAD LOGISTICS, INC.

AND

ACF FINCO I LP

DATED AS OF SEPTEMBER 27, 2013

 

 

Effective Date: December 3, 2014


SECOND AMENDMENT AND WAIVER TO LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

This Second Amendment and Waiver (this “Agreement”) is entered into between GENERAL EMPLOYMENT ENTERPRISES, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Illinois (“GEE”), TRIAD PERSONNEL SERVICES, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Illinois (“TPS”), BUSINESS MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Ohio (“BUMPS”), BMPS, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Ohio (“BMPSOH”), BMCH, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Ohio (“BMCH”), BMCHPA, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (“BMCHPA”), and TRIAD LOGISTICS, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Ohio (“Triad”, and collectively with the foregoing, “Borrower”), and ACF FINCO I LP (successor-in-interest to Keltic Financial Partners II, LP), a limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Lender”), this 3rd day of December, 2014.

RECITALS:

Borrower and Lender are parties to a Loan and Security Agreement dated September 27, 2013, as amended by a First Amendment effective as of December 31, 2013 (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”), and the other agreements, documents and instruments in connection therewith (all of the foregoing, as the same may be amended, restated, or otherwise modified from time to time, to be collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents”).

Keltic Financial Partners II, LP sold substantially all of its assets to, and transferred substantially all of its liabilities to, Lender effective June 4, 2014 pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement dated May 12, 2014 and the other agreements, documents and instruments executed and/or delivered in connection therewith (the “Keltic Acquisition”).

Pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Credit Agreement Borrower is prohibited from permitting any person other than Michael J. Schroering (“Schroering”) to be elected Chairman or CEO of GEE, or other than Andrew J. Norstrud to be elected CFO or Treasurer of GEE. On or about March 11, 2014 Andrew J. Norstrud was elected as CEO of GEE, and on or about May 9, 2014 Frank Elenio was elected as CFO of GEE (together, the “Change of Management”). Additionally, pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Credit Agreement Borrower is require to provide Lender with notice prior to the reduction, on an as-diluted basis, of the equity securities of Schroering below 51% of the equity securities of GEE on an as-issued and as-diluted basis.

Pursuant to Section 8.20 of the Credit Agreement Borrower is required to satisfy certain “EBITDA” covenants as contained therein. Borrower has failed to satisfy Section 8.20 of the Credit Agreement for the measurement periods ending on March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014 (the “2014 EBITDA Defaults”).

GEE intends to issue up to 200,000 shares of “Series A Preferred Stock” (the “Preferred Stock”) pursuant to the terms of one or more Securities Purchase Agreements between GEE and each party executing the same, for an aggregate purchase price of up $2,000,000, as further described in Schedule 14C filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2014 (the “Preferred Offering”). Pursuant to the terms of the Preferred Stock Certificate of

 

Page 1 of 8


Designations each share of Preferred Stock will, among other things, accrue dividends at a rate of 8% per annum, and will be convertible into shares of GEE’s common stock, as further provided in such Certificate of Designations. Additionally, as a result of the issuance of the Preferred Stock the equity securities of Schroering in GEE will fall below 51% of GEE’s equity securities on an as-issued and as-diluted basis (the “Change of Control”).

Borrower has requested that Lender waive all “Defaults” and “Events of Default” (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement) in connection with (i) the Change of Management, (ii) the 2014 EBITDA Defaults and (iii) the Change of Control, and modify the EBITDA covenants contained in the Credit Agreement.

Upon the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement Lender shall agree to the foregoing.
