Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 10, 2016, The New Home Company Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with U.S. Bank National Association d/b/a Housing Capital Company, as Administrative Agent, and the other lenders party thereto (each a “Lender” and together, the “Lenders”), which amended and restated the Company’s existing credit agreement dated June 26, 2014. The Agreement provides for a $260 million unsecured asset based revolving credit facility, with an accordion feature that allows, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions (including the availability of additional bank commitments), borrowings thereunder to be increased up to an aggregate of $350 million at any time outstanding (the “Credit Facility”).

The Credit Facility matures April 30, 2019 and is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s significant wholly-owned subsidiaries. In addition to customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, the Credit Facility contains financial covenants relating to tangible net worth, liquidity, interest coverage and leverage (including a separate adjusted leverage test of the Company’s joint ventures, which terminates upon achievement of a consolidated tangible net worth of $250 million), and a limit on secured indebtedness of $55 million. The interest rate on borrowings are LIBOR-based plus an applicable margin which varies based on the Company’s leverage ratio. In addition, there are commitment fees on the unused portion of the Credit Facility which vary based on the Company’s leverage ratio.
 
The Credit Facility contains customary events of default, subject to cure periods in certain circumstances, that would result in the termination of the commitments and permit the Lenders to accelerate payment on outstanding borrowings and require cash collateralization of letters of credit. These events of default include nonpayment of principal, interest and fees or other amounts; violation of covenants; inaccuracy of representations and warranties; cross default to certain other indebtedness; unpaid judgments; change in control; and certain bankruptcy and other insolvency events.

The Company has banking relationships in the ordinary course of its business with U.S. Bank National Association and with certain of the other Lenders. In addition, certain of the Lenders and their respective affiliates have in the past performed commercial banking, investment banking, underwriting, and/or advisory services for the Company from time to time for which they have received customary fees and reimbursement of expenses, and may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for the Company for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
