On January 15, 2020, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) between the Company which includes its wholly-owned subsidiaries MotherLode LLC, an Oregon limited liability company, Big Bottom Distilling, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company, Craft Canning + Bottling, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company, Redneck Riviera Whiskey Co., LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company, and Outlandish Beverages LLC, an Oregon limited liability company collectively, (the “Borrowers” and each a “Borrower”) and Live Oak Banking Company (“Live Oak”), a North Carolina banking corporation (the “Lender”) to refinance existing debt of the Borrowers and to provide funding for general working capital purposes. Under the Loan Agreement, the Lender has committed to make up to two loan advances to the Borrowers in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) $8.0 million and (ii) a borrowing base equal to 85% of the appraised value of the Borrowers’ eligible inventory of whisky in barrels or totes less an amount equal to all service fees or rental payments owed by the Borrowers during the 90 day period immediately succeeding the date of determination to any warehouses or bailees holding eligible inventory (the “Loan”).

 

The Loan matures on January 14, 2021 and all amounts outstanding under the Loan will become due and payable. The Lender may at any time demand repayment of the Loan in whole or in part, in which case the Borrowers will be obligated to repay the Loan (or portion thereof for which repayment is demanded) within 30 days following the date of demand. The Borrowers may prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium.

 

The Loan bears interest at a rate equal to the prime rate plus a spread of 2.49%, adjusted quarterly. Accrued interest is payable monthly, with the final installment of interest being due and payable on the Maturity Date. The Borrowers are also obligated to pay a servicing fee, unused commitment fee and origination fee in connection with the Loan. The Company paid $0.4 million in interest during the year ended December 31, 2020. The balance of the Loan was $6.4 million as of December 31, 2020.

 

The Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that include covenants restricting each Company’s ability to, among other things, incur indebtedness, grant liens, dispose of assets, merge or consolidate, make investments, or enter into restrictive agreements, subject to certain exceptions.

 

The obligations of the Borrowers under the Loan Agreement are secured by substantially all of their respective assets, except for accounts receivable and certain other specified excluded property.

 

The Loan Agreement includes customary events of default that include among other things, non-payment defaults, covenant defaults, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross default to material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency defaults and change in control defaults. Under certain circumstances, a default interest rate will apply on all obligations during the existence of an event of default under the Loan Agreement at a per annum rate equal to 2.00% above the applicable interest rate.

 

In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company issued to the Lender a warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $3.94 per share (the “Warrant”). The Warrant expires on January 15, 2025. In connection with the issuance of the Warrant, the Company granted the Lender piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, subject to certain exceptions. On June 3, 2020, the Company entered into a Modification Agreement with Live Oak that made changes to the Financial Reports and Other Data Section and restated Exhibit B.

 

On January 16, 2020, in connection with the Company’s consummation of the Loan Agreement, Eastside repaid in full and terminated the Secured Line of Credit Promissory Note that Eastside had issued to TQLA, LLC (“Holder”) on November 29, 2019 (the “TQLA Note”). Since Eastside repaid the TQLA Note in full prior to its maturity date, the Common Stock Purchase Warrant that Eastside had issued to Holder on November 29, 2019 is not be exercisable and is cancelled. No prepayment or early termination penalties were incurred by Eastside as a result of repaying the TQLA Note. In addition, Eastside repaid in full and terminated the $3.0 million credit and security agreement (the “Credit and Security Agreement”), by and between the Company and The KFK Children’s Trust, Jeffrey Anderson – Trustee (the “Lender”).

Those technical defaults included the failure to timely deliver information and its belief that the Company owed certain taxes and did not relate to any failure to pay amounts owing under the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement provides that upon an event of default, the Lender may, at its option, declare the entire loan to be immediately due and payable. Further, a default interest rate may apply on all obligations during the existence of an event of default at a per annum rate equal to 2.00% above the applicable interest rate. On June 3, 2020 the Company entered into a Second Modification to Loan Agreement (“Modification”) with the Lender agreeing to waive the technical defaults upon the satisfaction of certain conditions by September 30, 2020.

The Loans are secured by all of the Company’s bulk whiskey, bourbon and rye inventory held in third-party storage facilities (“Specified Inventory”). The Company may borrow 80% of the value of the Specified Inventory it is able to purchase under the Credit and Security Agreement.

 

The proceeds of the Loans are to be used by the Company to purchase the Specified Inventory for use in distilling and producing its spirits products, and for no other purpose.

 

The Loans have an annual interest rate of 7.00%. The Company will pay accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, for the period commencing on the date each such Loan is made and continuing until each such Loan is paid in full. During 2019, The Company paid $0.2 million in interest on the Loans. The Company must pay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in a one-time payment on the termination date of the Credit and Security Agreement (June 10, 2021), or earlier pursuant to other provisions thereof. The Company may prepay the Loans or any portion thereof at any time, and from time to time, without premium or penalty. As of December 31, 2019, the Company has borrowed the full $3.0 million available under the agreement. The Loans were paid in full on January 30, 2020.

 

The current market value of the Company’s bulk whiskey, bourbon and rye inventories must be at least 120% of the outstanding Loan balance. In addition, the Credit and Security Agreement contains other customary covenants including, among other things, certain restrictions on incurring indebtedness.
