Item 1.01 — Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement and Item 2.03 — Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
Business Loan Agreement and Change in Terms Agreement between Homeland Energy Solutions, LLC and Home Federal Savings Bank
The following disclosures are made in compliance with (i) Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement; and (ii) Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant:
On March 23, 2007, we entered into a Promissory Note and Business Loan Agreement (the “Bridge Loan”) with Home Federal Savings Bank establishing a credit facility for interim financing in the amount of $3,517,572.00. We previously filed a current report on Form 8-K on March 27, 2007, which erroneously stated that the amount of the loan was $4,517,572.00. In addition, on April 23, 2007, we entered into a Change of Terms Agreement with Home Federal Savings Bank on April 23, 2007, which revised the terms of our repayment obligations regarding the payment of interest. Previously, we were obligated to begin making monthly interest payments on April 23, 2007, at an interest rate of 8.25%, with a final payment of the principal amount plus any accrued interest due on March 23, 2008. Under the Change in Terms Agreement, we agreed to pay the loan in one principal payment of $3,517,572.00 plus interest at a rate of 8.25% on March 23, 2008. We expect to pay the balance when we close on our senior debt financing and release equity proceeds from escrow; however, there is no assurance or guarantee that we will be able to successfully close our project financing.
We previously obtained certain real estate options in Chickasaw County, Iowa in order to secure land to construct our proposed 100 million gallon per year ethanol plant. In order to exercise the options before they expired on April 1, 2007, we used the loan funds to purchase most of the land for our plant site.
