 Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

On August 31, 2016, Frankly Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) had entered into (i) a $14.5 million credit facility pursuant to a credit agreement, as amended on December 20, 2016, March 30, 2017, May 25, 2017, October 25, 2017 and December 27, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”) with Raycom Media, Inc. (“Raycom”) and (ii) a share purchase agreement, as amended on December 20, 2016, March 30, 2017, May 25, 2017, October 25, 2017 and December 27, 2017 (the “Raycom SPA”) with Raycom pursuant to which we issued 150,200 common shares in exchange for a promissory note previously issued by us to Raycom, with a principal amount of $14.5 million.

 

On May 7, 2018, the Company had amended and restated the Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) to increase the amount of funding available under the Credit Agreement by $7.5 million. The Amended Credit Agreement superseded the original Credit Agreement. The $1 million that was advanced by Raycom to us on March 13, 2018 was included in the $7.5 million funding increase, bringing the total amount provided to us under the Amended Credit Agreement to $22 million (the “Credit Facility”). Of the $7.5 million, our customer Cordillera Communications (“Cordillera” and together with Raycom, the “Lenders”) participated as a lender for up to $300,000. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, outstanding term loans in the amount of $14.5 million were characterized as Term B Loans under a non-revolving term loan facility in such amount (“Facility B”) and an outstanding term loan in the amount of $1 million was characterized as a Term A Loan under a non-revolving term loan facility in the amount of $7.5 million (“Facility A”).

 

On October 15, 2018, the Company amended the Amended Credit Agreement to reduce its principal debt balance due under the Amended Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2018 from $21,500,000 (“Loan Balance”) to $10,000,000 (“New Loan Balance”) as of October 1, 2018. In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement was amended as follows:

 

a. Commencing on October 1, 2018, interest under the Amended Credit Agreement will accrue on the New Loan Balance at the annual rate of 10%.

 

b. The maturity date of the New Loan Balance was revised to September 30, 2021. The New Loan Balance along with all accrued interest will be due on the revised maturity date.

 

c. Commencing on October 1, 2018, the following provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement will no longer be operative: Section 4.3; Section 6.2; Section 8.1.5; and Article 9, except Sections 9.1.1.1, 9.1.1.2, 9.1.2, 9.1.3, 9.1.4, 9.1.5, 9.1.6, 9.1.7, 9.1.10 (excluding 9.1.10.3 & 9.1.10.6), 9.1.11, 9.1.12, 9.1.13, 9.1.14, 9.1.15.1, 9.1.17 and 9.3; and Sections 10.1.16 and 10.1.18.

 

d. The Company’s debt to Cordillera under the Amended Credit Agreement has been extinguished and Cordillera is no longer party to the Amended Credit Agreement as of October 1, 2018.

 

e. Section 4.2 of the Raycom SPA was terminated as of the date of this amendment.
