Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement The information set forth in Item 2.03 is incorporated herein by this reference.
03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off- Balance Sheet
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off- Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. On July 12, 2024, we and VNB New York, LLC (the "Lender") entered into the third amendment dated July 9, 2024 (the "Amendment") to the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement made as of November 18, 2021, as amended, by and between us and the Lender (the "Initial Credit Facility"; the Initial Credit Facility as amended by the Amendment, the "Credit Facility"). The Amendment extended the maturity of the facility by two years (i.e., from September 2025 to September 2027) and reduced the amount available under the facility by $20 million (i.e., from $60 million to $40 million). The Amendment (i) modified several of the covenants under the facility to, among other things, reflect the reduced availability under the facility and (ii) increased the number of wholly-owned properties we are required to own from five properties to ten properties (we currently wholly-own 21 properties). As of July 12, 2024, we are able to borrow $40 million pursuant to the facility. We reduced the amount available under the facility in connection with obtaining approximately $28 million of seven-year mortgage debt (the "Financing") on our Woodland Trails – LaGrange, Georgia property. We anticipate that the Financing will be completed in August 2024, will bear a fixed interest rate of 5.22%, and will be interest only until maturity in 2031. We anticipate using the proceeds from the Financing to invest in multi-family property opportunities and for general corporate purposes (which may include repurchases of our common stock). Such proceeds will be invested initially in short-term US Treasury securities until they are applied. In connection with the Amendment, we paid the lender aggregate fees of approximately $317,000. We can provide no assurance that the Financing will be obtained or that if obtained, that we will invest the proceeds therefrom in accretive/profitable
