On February 2, 2021, the Company issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior secured notes due on February 1, 2026 (the “Notes”) under an indenture dated February 2, 2021 (the “Indenture”). Interest on the Notes accrues at the rate of 8.625% per annum and is payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year. The Notes are secured on a first-lien priority basis by substantially all assets of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries and are guaranteed jointly and severally by the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. The Company used the net proceeds from the Notes, to refinance in full our previously outstanding credit facility, to repay a previously outstanding promissory note and loan from George Beasley (see Note 18) and to pay related accrued interest, fees and expenses. The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, guarantee indebtedness or issue disqualified stock or, in the case of such subsidiaries, preferred stock; pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect of our capital stock or make other restricted payments; make certain investments or acquisitions; sell, transfer or otherwise convey certain assets; create liens; enter into agreements restricting certain subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make other intercompany transfers; consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; enter into transactions with affiliates; prepay certain kinds of indebtedness; and issue or sell stock of its subsidiaries. Prior to February 1, 2025, the Company will be subject to certain premiums, as defined in the Indenture, for optional or mandatory (upon certain contingent events) redemption of some or all of the Notes. In connection with the issuance of the Notes and the repayment of the previously outstanding credit facility, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of long-term debt of $5.0 million during the first quarter of 2021. In the third quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased $5.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes for an aggregate price equal to 77% of the principal amount and recorded an aggregate gain of $1.0 million as a result of the repurchases. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased $5.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes for an aggregate price equal to 96% of the principal amount and recorded an aggregate gain of $0.1 million as a result of the repurchases. On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into a loan with Synovus Bank for $10.0 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The loan bore interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum and was scheduled to mature on March 1, 2026. Principal and interest payments were deferred, with interest accruing, until after the period in which the Company was allowed to apply for loan forgiveness pursuant to the PPP. In September 2021, the Company submitted an application for forgiveness, and, in November 2021, the loan was forgiven in full. As of December 31, 2020, the previously outstanding credit facility consisted of a term loan facility with a remaining balance of $238.0 million and a revolving credit facility with an outstanding balance of $20.0 million and a maximum commitment of $20.0 million. The revolving credit facility carried interest, based on LIBOR, at 4.4% as of December 31, 2020. The term loan carried interest, based on LIBOR, at 5.25% as of December 31, 2020. As noted above, the credit facility was repaid on February 2, 2021, using a portion of the proceeds from the Notes offering. On November 14, 2019, the Company acquired a majority interest in an esports team and issued a promissory note for $16.5 million to the seller. On June 30, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to the promissory note applicable to the remaining balance. As amended, the promissory note bore cash-pay interest at 5 % per annum payable quarterly in arrears and additional payment-in-kind interest at 10 % per annum. The promissory note had a remaining balance of $ 5.5 million as of December 31, 2020. As noted above, the amended promissory note was repaid on February 2, 2021, using a portion of the proceeds from the Notes offering.
