Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 3, 2021, Remark Holdings, Inc. (“we”, “Remark”, “us” or “our”) entered into senior secured loan agreements (the “Loan Agreements”) with certain of our subsidiaries as guarantors (the “Guarantors”) and certain institutional lenders affiliated with Mudrick Capital Management, LP (the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders extended credit to us consisting of term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million (the “Loans”). The Loans bear interest at 16.5% per annum, which shall be payable on the last business day of each month commencing on December 31, 2021. All amounts outstanding under the Loans, including all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable in full on July 31, 2022. To secure the payment and performance of the obligations under the Loan Agreements, we, together with the Guarantors, have granted to TMI Trust Company, as the collateral agent for the benefit of the Lenders, a first priority lien on, and security interest in, all assets of Remark and the Guarantors, subject to certain customary exceptions. The Loan Agreements contain representations, warranties, events of default, indemnifications and other provisions customary for financings of this type. The occurrence of any event of default under the Loan Agreements may result in the principal amount outstanding and unpaid interest thereon becoming immediately due and payable. In connection with our entry into the Loan Agreement, we paid to the Lenders an upfront fee equal 5.0% of the amount of the Loans, which was netted against the drawdown of the Loans.
The foregoing description of the Loan Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety to the full text of the form of the Loan Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 6, 2021, we used the proceeds of the Loans to repay in full all outstanding obligations under, and terminated, the senior secured promissory note dated February 10, 2021, among us, certain of our subsidiaries as guarantors and Jefferson Remark Funding LLC.
