Since October 2016, we have been party to a loan and security agreement (the “LL Funds Loan Agreement”), with LL Private Lending Fund, L.P. and LL Private Lending Fund II, L.P., both of which are affiliates of LL Capital Partners I, L.P., which holds more than 5% of our Class A common stock. Additionally, Roberto Sella, who is a member of our board of directors, is the managing partner of LL Funds. The LL Funds Loan Agreement is comprised of a senior secured credit facility and a mezzanine secured credit facility, under which we may borrow funds up to a maximum principal amount of $85.0 million and $14.0 million, respectively. The LL Funds Loan Agreement also provides us with the option to borrow above the fully committed borrowing capacity, subject to the lender’s discretion. Refer to Note 8, Credit Facilities and Notes Payable, for further details about the facilities under the LL Funds Loan Agreement.

Since March 2020, we have also been party to a mezzanine loan and security agreement (the “LL Mezz Loan Agreement”), with LL Private Lending Fund II, L.P. Under the LL Mezz Loan Agreement, we may borrow funds up to a maximum principal amount of $65.0 million. Refer to Note 8, Credit Facilities and Notes Payable, for further details about the mezzanine facility under the LL Mezz Loan Agreement.

From September 10, 2021 through December 15, 2021, we were party to a loan and security agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) for which LL Private Lending Fund II, L.P was a lender for the mezzanine facility under the Loan and Security Agreement. On December 16, 2021, we amended the Loan and Security Agreement, which among other things, replaced LL Private Lending Fund II, L.P. as a lender on the facility with an unrelated third-party lender.

We paid interest for borrowings under the LL facilities of $11.7 million, $8.2 million and $16.8 million during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
