LSC 1543 7th LLC Loan

 

On June 30, 2022, LSC 1543 7th LLC obtained a loan of up to $33.1 million (the “LSC 1543 7th LLC Loan”) which bears interest at SOFR + 3.50% (7.86% as of December 31, 2022). The LSC 1543 7th LLC Loan is initially scheduled to mature on December 30, 2023, but may be further extended through December 30, 2024 and September 20, 2025, through the exercise of two extension options. The LSC 1543 7th LLC Loan requires monthly interest-only payments with the outstanding principal balance due at its maturity date and is collateralized by a nonrecourse loan originated by LSC 1543 7th LLC (the “LSC 1543 7th LLC Note Receivable”). As of December 31, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the LSC 1543 7th LLC Loan was $32.2 million. See Note 6.

 

Moxy Construction Loans

 

On June 3, 2021, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, closed on a recourse construction loan facility (the “Moxy Senior Loan”) providing for up to $90.0 million of funds for the development, construction and certain pre-opening costs associated with the Lower East Side Moxy Hotel. At closing, $35.6 million of proceeds were initially advanced under the Moxy Senior Loan, which were used to repay in full a then outstanding mortgage loan. The Moxy Senior Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 7.50%, subject to an 7.75% floor, and initially matures on June 3, 2024, with two one-year extension options, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Additionally, the Moxy Senior Loan provides for a replacement benchmark rate in connection with the phase-out of LIBOR, which is expected to be for periods after June 30, 2023. The Moxy Senior Loan is collateralized by the Lower East Side Moxy Hotel. As of December 31, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the Moxy Senior Loan was $82.8 million, the interest rate was 11.89% and the remaining availability under the facility was up to $7.2 million, which is expected to be used to fund the remaining construction and pre-opening costs for the project. Additionally, the Company was required by the lender to deposit the $4.7 million of key money received from Marriott into an escrow account (included in restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022) which may also be used to fund the remaining construction costs for the project.

 

Simultaneously on June 3, 2021, the Company, through the same wholly owned subsidiary, also entered into a mezzanine construction loan facility (the “Moxy Junior Loan” and together with the Moxy Senior Loan, the “Moxy Construction Loans”) providing for up to $40.0 million of additional funds for the development, construction and certain pre-opening costs associated with the Lower East Side Moxy Hotel. The Moxy Junior Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 13.50%, subject to a 14.00% floor, and initially matures on June 3, 2024, with two one-year extension options, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Additionally, the Moxy Junior Loan provides for a replacement benchmark rate in connection with the phase-out of LIBOR, which is expected to be for periods after June 30, 2023. The Moxy Junior Loan is subordinate to the Moxy Senior Loan but also collateralized by the Lower East Side Moxy Hotel. The Company has provided a principal guarantee of up to $7.0 million with respect to the Moxy Junior Loan. As of December 31, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the Moxy Junior Loan was $40.0 million and its interest rate was 17.89%.

 

In connection with the Moxy Construction Loans, the Company has provided certain completion and carry cost guarantees. The Company has also entered into two interest rate cap agreements with notional amounts of $90.0 million and $40.0 million pursuant to which LIBOR through June 30, 2023 and its replacement rate thereafter is capped at 3.00% through June 3, 2024. Furthermore, in connection with the Moxy Construction Loans, the Company paid $5.3 million of loan fees and expenses and accrued $1.1 million of loan exit fees which are due at the initial maturity date and are included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

 

Exterior Street Loans

 

On March 29, 2019, the Company obtained a $35.0 million loan (the “Exterior Street Loan”) from a financial institution which, commencing on October 10, 2020, bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% through November 24, 2022. On December 21, 2021, the loan agreement was amended to provide an additional $7.0 million loan (the “Exterior Street Supplemental Loan” and collectively with the Exterior Street Loan, the “Exterior Street Loans”) which bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% through November 24, 2022. The Exterior Street Loans require monthly interest-only payments with the outstanding principal balances due in full at their maturity date. The Exterior Street Loans are collateralized by the Exterior Street Project. On November 22, 2022, the Company and the financial institution entered into an additional amendment to the Exterior Street Loans pursuant to which the interest rate on the Exterior Street Loans were adjusted to SOFR plus 2.60% (6.96% as of December 31, 2022) and their maturity dates were extended to November 24, 2023.

 

Gantry Park Mortgage Loan

 

On November 19, 2014, the 2nd Street Joint Venture entered into a $74.5 million mortgage loan (the “Gantry Park Mortgage Loan”). The Gantry Park Mortgage Loan has a 10-year term with a maturity date of November 19, 2024, bears interest at 4.48%, and required monthly interest-only payments for the first three years and monthly principal and interest payments pursuant to a 30-year amortization schedule thereafter. The Gantry Park Mortgage Loan is collateralized by Gantry Park Landing.

 

Certain of the Company’s debt agreements require the maintenance of certain ratios, including debt service coverage. As of December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial debt covenants. Additionally, certain of our mortgages payable also contain clauses providing for prepayment penalties.

 

Debt Maturities

 

The Exterior Street Loans (outstanding aggregate principal balance of $42.0 million as of December 31, 2022) mature on November 24, 2023. The Company currently intends to seek to extend or refinance the Exterior Street Loans on or before their maturity date.

 

The LSC 1543 7th LLC Loan (outstanding principal balance of $32.2 million as of December 31, 2022) is scheduled to initially mature on December 30, 2023, but may be further extended through December 30, 2024 and September 20, 2025, through the exercise of two extension options. The Company currently intends to repay the LSC 1543 7th LLC Loan with the proceeds from the expected repayment of the LSC 1543 7th LLC Note Receivable, which has an outstanding principal balance of $49.0 million, or to seek to extend the LSC 1543 7th LLC Loan pursuant to the extension option on or before its maturity date.

 

However, if the Company is unable to extend or refinance its maturing indebtedness at favorable terms, it will look to repay the then outstanding balance with available cash and/or proceeds from selective asset sales. The Company has no additional significant maturities of mortgage debt over the next 12 months.
