The Registrant owns an ownership interest in LEAF Commercial Finance Fund, LLC which, through a subsidiary, Resource Capital Funding II, LLC, has a line of credit with Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. Resource Capital Funding II, as borrower, entered into a Seventh Amendment to the Receivables Loan and Security Agreement and Waiver, dated as of July 14, 2009, with Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., as lender and as collateral agent. Other parties to the amendment are LEAF Financial Corporation, as servicer; U.S. Bank National Association, as custodian; Lyon Financial Services, Inc. (d/b/a U.S. Bank Portfolio Services), as the back-up servicer; and Morgan Stanley Capital Servicers Inc., as the qualifying swap counterparty.
The agreement contains a covenant related to the minimum tangible net worth of Resource America, Inc., the parent company of the Registrant’s general partner. The amendment lowers this covenant and irrevocably waives any covenant failures that would have resulted from Resource America’s tangible net worth being below the previous threshold. The borrower has agreed not to make any additional borrowings under this agreement and the existing amounts outstanding shall amortize. In addition, excess cash received from the payment of leases by obligors shall be used to repay the principal amount owing under this line of credit. As a result, certain covenants were modified or eliminated, including the elimination of all overconcentration limits and borrowing base events of default. In addition, the borrower does not owe any additional unused fees, and all breakage fees and prepayment premiums have been removed from the agreement. The interest rate for the remaining balance shall now be calculated at LIBOR plus 3.00%.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
