TIF Loan

 

For the Company, the Development Finance Authority of Summit County (“DFA Summit”) offered a private placement of $10,030,000 in taxable development revenue bonds, Series 2018. The bond proceeds are to reimburse the developer for costs of certain public improvements at the Hall of Fame Village powered by Johnson Controls, which are eligible uses of tax-incremental funding (“TIF”) proceeds.

 

Under the cooperative agreement entered into by the Company, two subsidiaries, the City of Canton, DFA Summit, Stark County Port Authority, and the bank trustee, the Company and certain subsidiaries have been exempted from certain real estate taxes. However, the Company must make real estate tax payments on the TIF parcels sufficient to cover future required payments on the bond debt service until the 2018 bonds are no longer outstanding. This is a significant commitment made by the Company and is guaranteed by an individual’s trust, an individual, and two subsidiaries of the Company.

 

Since the bond debt service is fixed and determinable, a liability has been recorded as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, representing the present value of the future bond debt service payments. The term of the TIF requires the Company to make installment payments through July 31, 2048. The current imputed interest rate is 5.2%, which runs through July 31, 2028. The imputed interest rate then increases to 6.6% through July 31, 2038 and finally increases to 7.7% through the remainder of the TIF. The Company is required to make payments on the TIF semi-annually in June and December each year.

 

7.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (Preferred Equity Loan) 

 

On April 1, 2021, the Company received $900,000 in advance of a subscription agreement to purchase shares of 7.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). On August 12, 2021, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with ACC to issue to the Investor 900 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of $1,000 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $900,000.

 

On September 22, 2021, the Company issued an additional 900 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the Investor at a price of $1,000 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $900,000.

 

The Company had 3,600 and 1,800 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding and 52,800 and 52,800 shares of Series A Preferred Stock authorized as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
