The responses to Items 3 and 5 and Exhibits 1 through 2 are incorporated herein.

 

On August 27, 2018, JIG LLC entered into an additional financing transaction pursuant to a First Omnibus Amendment, Joinder and Reaffirmation Agreement, (the “First Omnibus Amendment”) by and among JIG LLC, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries as guarantors (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), which among other things amended that certain Amendment and Restated Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 15, 2017 between JIG LLC, the Company and certain of the Subsidiary Guarantors (as amended, the “A&R Note Purchase Agreement”). 

 

On August 27, 2018, in accordance with the terms of the First Omnibus Amendment, the Company issued to JIG LLC the August 27, 2018 Note in the aggregate principal amount of $8,427,794 which has a maturity date of September 15, 2020 and accrues interest at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, due quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 in each year, with the first such payment due on October 1, 2018. Interest on any overdue payment of principal or interest due under the August 27, 2018 Note will accrue at a rate per annum that is 5% in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable thereunder. The Subsidiary Guarantors guaranteed to JIG LLC the prompt payment of the obligations of the Company owed to JIG LLC under the First Omnibus Amendment, including the repayment of the August 27, 2018 Note. A portion of the proceeds of the sale of the August 27, 2018 Note were used to fund the KRI Transaction. The First Omnibus Amendment is Exhibit 3 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Company may prepay the amounts due on the August 27, 2018 Note in whole or in part from time to time, without penalty or premium, subject to the conditions set forth in the A&R Note Purchase Agreement, and such prepayments, depending on the timing of the prepayments, may result in a discount on the principal amount to be prepaid as set forth in the A&R Note Purchase Agreement.

 

The Company paid a closing fee of $319,000 in connection with its entry into the First Omnibus Amendment and agreed to issue 192,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock as a closing commitment fee.

 

The obligations of the Company under the August 27, 2018 Note are secured by liens on and security interests in substantially all of the personal property (other than accounts receivable) of the Company and certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company (the “Borrowers”), pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined below).

 

The foregoing descriptions of the First Omnibus Amendment and the August 27, 2018 Note do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the First Omnibus Amendment and the August 27, 2018 Note (respectively).

The foregoing description of the First Amendment to Intercreditor Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment to Intercreditor Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4 and incorporated herein by reference.
