7. LINE OF CREDIT

 

On February 27, 2015, the Company entered into the Credit and Security Agreement with Webster. The Webster Credit Line provided for an interest rate (until amended – as described below) of either LIBOR plus 4.75% or the base commercial lending rate of Webster plus 3.25% as chosen by the Company for each drawdown. The Webster Credit Line contains various covenants and restrictions including, among other covenants and restrictions, limiting the amount that the Company can borrow relative to the value of the underlying collateral, maintaining various financial ratios and limitations on the terms of loans the Company makes to its customers, limiting the Company’s ability to pay dividends under certain circumstances, and limiting the Company’s ability to repurchase its common shares, sell assets, engage in mergers or consolidations, grant liens, and enter into transactions with affiliates. In addition, the Webster Credit Line also contains a cross default provision which will deem any default under any indebtedness owed by us or our subsidiary, MBC Funding II, as a default under the credit line. Mr. Assaf Ran, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, has personally guaranteed all of the Company’s obligations to Webster.

 

Total costs to establish the Webster Credit Line were approximately $144,000. These costs are being amortized over three years, using the straight-line method. The amortization costs for each of the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $24,083.

 

At June 30, 2017, the outstanding amount under the Webster Credit Line was $13,165,999. The interest rate on the amount outstanding fluctuates daily. The rate for June 30, 2017 was 5.97611%.

 

Effective July 7, 2017, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to Credit and Security Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to Guaranty Agreement (the “Amendment”), with Webster. In conjunction with the execution of the Amendment, the Company also entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note (the “Amended Note”), and Amendment No. 3 Fee Letter (the “Fee Letter”), each dated July 7, 2017, with Webster. Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the Webster Credit Line was increased by $1 million to $15 million in the aggregate, with an option, at the discretion of Webster, to increase the Webster Credit Line to $20 million in the aggregate. The term of the Webster Credit Line was extended to February 28, 2021, unless sooner terminated, and contains a provision that permits a Company option for a further extension of the Webster Credit Line until February 28, 2022, subject to Webster’s consent. Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the terms of the personal guaranty provided by Mr. Ran were amended such that the potential sums owed under Mr. Ran’s personal guaranty will not exceed the sum of $500,000 plus any costs relating to the enforcement of the personal guaranty.

 

In addition, the interest rates relating to the Webster Credit Line were amended such that the interest rates now equal (i) LIBOR plus 3.75% plus the 0.5% Agency Fee (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) a Base Rate (as defined in the Credit and Security Agreement) plus 2.25% plus the 0.5% Agency Fee, as chosen by the Company for each drawdown. Finally, the Amendment provides that the Company shall not permit mortgage loans that are outstanding more than 24 months after their origination date to comprise more than 17.5% of their total portfolio of mortgage loans at any time. Pursuant to the terms of the Fee Letter, the Company agreed to pay Webster an agency fee equal to 0.5% per annum (the “Agency Fee”) on the actual principal amount of advances outstanding during any month, as well as a $15,000 syndication fee.
