Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On December 28, 2020 Gaia, Inc. successfully completed the refinancing of its corporate campus, reducing the interest rate from 5.75% to 3.75% per annum.
Boulder Road LLC (“Boulder Road”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gaia, Inc. (“Gaia”), and Westside Boulder, LLC (“Westside” and, together with Boulder Road, “Borrower”) entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Great Western Bank, as lender, providing for a mortgage loan in the principal amount of $13 million (the “Loan”). The Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.75% per annum and matures on December 28, 2025. Principal and interest on the Loan is payable in equal monthly installments of $66,837. Westside and Boulder Road each received 50% of the Loan and will be responsible for 50% of the monthly installments. The Loan is secured by a deed of trust, assignment of rents, security agreement and fixture filing on Gaia’s corporate campus in Louisville, Colorado, a portion of which is owned by Boulder Road and Westside as tenants-in-common and the remainder of which is owned by Boulder Road. Borrower may prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, at any time, subject to a prepayment premium if the Loan is refinanced with another financial institution within three years. The Loan Agreement and related documents evidencing and/or securing the Loan contain customary terms and conditions, including customary events of default and remedies of the lender. Pursuant to an unconditional guaranty of payment dated as of December 28, 2020 (the “Guaranty”), Gaia guaranteed the Loan plus any additional amounts for which Boulder Road and Westside may be liable to the lender. Gaia used a portion of the net proceeds from the Loan to repay a $4 million loan from an affiliate of Westside Boulder on December 29, 2020. Gaia will use the remainder of its portion of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes.
The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement and the Guaranty do not purport to be complete and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreement and the Guaranty, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
