Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On March 1, 2022, MainStreet Bancshares, Inc. (the Company”) entered into a Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the purchasers signatory thereto providing for a private placement of $43.8 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.00% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes Due 2032 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued by the Company to the purchasers at a price equal to 100% of their face amount.

The Notes have been sold to accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D. The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be resold absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act. The Notes are subordinate and junior in right of payment to the claims of all general creditors of the Company and are intended to qualify as Tier 2 Capital under applicable rules and regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”).

Interest on the Notes will accrue from March 1, 2022, and the Company will pay interest semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning September 15, 2022, until the Notes mature. Except as provided below, the Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.00% per annum, computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, from and including March 1, 2022 to, but excluding, March 15, 2027. From and including March 15, 2027, but excluding the maturity date or early redemption date, the interest rate will reset quarterly at a variable rate equal to the then current three-month term SOFR plus 233 basis points. The Notes may not be redeemable by the Company, in whole or in part, prior to March 15, 2027. From and after March 15, 2027, The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount being redeemed (plus accrued but unpaid interest) to but excluding the redemption date. Any such redemption shall be subject to receipt of any and all required federal and state regulatory approvals or non-objections, including, but not limited to, the consent of the Federal Reserve, if then required.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and affirmative and negative covenants, including the requirement that, subject to certain limitations, the Company may restructure any portion of the Notes that ceases to be deemed Tier 2 Capital. Payment of the Notes may only be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain events of default, defined in the Agreement, and then only if holders of more than 50% of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding at that time elect to accelerate payments. Any acceleration is subject to prior approval of the Federal Reserve, to the extent such approval is required.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes for general corporate purposes, including capital to support the organic growth of its bank subsidiary, MainStreet Bank.

Janney Montgomery Scott LLC and Performance Trust Capital Partners, LLC served as co-placement agents for the offering.
