Item 8.01 Other Events
On October 15, 2015, Pathfinder Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) received a loan for $10.0 million in the form of subordinated debt pursuant to the Subordinated Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) entered into with Community Funding CLO, Ltd. (the “Lender”) on September 30, 2015. The Loan Agreement provides that the loan will bear interest at a fixed annual rate of 6.25% and is scheduled to mature on October 1, 2025. For the period beginning immediately after October 15, 2015, through but not including, March 1, 2016, the Lender will rebate an amount equal to 2.75% per annum to the Company, resulting in a net interest rate of 3.50% per annum to be paid by the Company during such period. The Company will pay interest quarterly in arrears during the term of the loan. The loan will be an unsecured and subordinated obligation of the Company and will rank junior in right of payment to any senior indebtedness and obligations to general and secured creditors. Subject to limited exceptions, the Company cannot repay the loan until after October 15, 2020.
The Company intends to use a portion of the proceeds of the loan, along with other capital, to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding 13,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock by the end of 2015, subject to the approval of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The 13,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock was issued to the Secretary of the Treasury as part of the Company’s participation in the Small Business Lending Fund.
