Line of Credit
On October 1, 2018, the Operating Company, as the borrower, entered into an amended and restated revolving credit note (the “line of credit”) with Fifth Third Bank, for a $15 million revolving credit loan with a maturity date of August 23, 2020. Interest on the principal balance outstanding on the line of credit is due monthly at a rate of LIBOR plus 3.50% per annum provided that no default has occurred. The Operating Company’s obligations under the line of credit are guaranteed by Jacoby & Co. Inc., all of our operating subsidiaries, and, until the agreement was amended in connection with the IPO as described below, personally by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Strategy Officer, and are collateralized by our accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, deposit accounts, intangibles and other assets, and an assignment of member life insurance policies. The line of credit borrowing base is 80% of eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of eligible inventory. The line of credit covenants requires a fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.25, to be calculated on a quarterly basis on the last day of each calendar quarter.
On April 5, 2019, we entered into a second amendment (“Second Amendment”) to our first amended and restated credit agreement, dated October 1, 2018. This Second Amendment amends and restates the definition of the guarantor under the terms of the agreement, wherein both our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Strategy Officer were released from all obligations under the Amended and Restated Guaranty to the Credit Agreement dated October 1, 2018. All other terms of the agreement remain unchanged.
There were no borrowings outstanding on our line of credit at December 31, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
Real Estate Note
On October 1, 2018, one of the Operating Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries closed on the purchase of a building for $10 million, which serves as our corporate headquarters. The purchase was financed through a real estate term note (the “Real Estate Note”) in the principal amount of $8.5 million, with one of the Operating Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries as the borrower and Fifth Third Bank as the lender. Principal amounts plus any accrued interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 2.39% are due monthly. Our obligations under the Real Estate Note are secured by a mortgage on the property. Our Real Estate Note is subject to an interest rate swap contract. See “Note 4—Fair Value of Financial Instruments.”
LIBOR is expected to be discontinued and replaced after 2021 and the credit facility has a maturity date beyond that time. There can be no assurances as to what the alternative base rate will be in the event that LIBOR is discontinued, and we can provide no assurances whether that base rate will be more or less favorable than LIBOR. We intend to monitor the developments with respect to the phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 and work with its lenders to ensure that any transition away from LIBOR will have minimal impact on our financial condition but can provide no assurances regarding the impact of LIBOR discontinuation.
Convertible Notes
On December 21, 2018, the Operating Company issued an aggregate of $40.2 million in convertible promissory notes (the “convertible notes”) and received net cash proceeds of $38.9 million. Approximately $15.1 million of the net cash proceeds received from the issuance of the convertible notes were used to redeem equity interests of existing members of the Operating Company. On January 4, 2019, the Operating Company issued an additional $8.1 million in convertible notes and received net cash proceeds of $6.5 million after approximately $0.4 million of debt issuance costs related to the January 2019 note issuance, and approximately $1.2 million of costs paid in January 2019 related to the issuance of the December 2018 convertible notes. Approximately $3.0 million of the net cash proceeds received from the issuance of the convertible notes were used to redeem equity interests of existing members of the Operating Company. The balance of the net proceeds has been or will be used for general corporate purposes. Total debt issuance costs of $0.4 million and $2.6 million associated with the issuance of convertible notes were expensed and recognized as interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2019, we recognized a change in fair value of the convertible notes of $12.1 million in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The convertible notes did not accrue interest. On April 23, 2019, in connection with the closing of the IPO, we issued 3,547,776 shares of our Class A common stock to the holders of the convertible notes upon conversion of the convertible notes of the Operating Company at a settlement price equal to 80% of the IPO price per share; see “Note 1—Business Operations and Organization.” The convertible notes also contained other settlement provisions if an IPO did not occur within one year of their issuance date. There were no convertible notes outstanding at December 31, 2019.
