| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
Debt Financings
Debt Facility
Credit Agreement
On November 15, 2018, in connection with the Closing and pursuant to the previously disclosed debt commitment letter, dated October 2, 2018 (the “Debt Commitment Letter”), Merger Sub, as Borrower, entered into a Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Luxor Capital Group, LP (“Luxor Capital”), as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lead Arranger, the various lenders party thereto, Waitr Intermediate Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Intermediate Holdings”), and certain subsidiaries of Merger Sub, as Guarantors. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured first priority term loan facility to Merger Sub in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 (the “Debt Facility”).
Loans advanced under the Debt Facility will mature and be due and payable in full four years after the Closing Date, with no principal amortization payments required prior thereto. During the first 12 months following the Closing Date, Merger Sub is required to pay a prepayment premium of 5.0% of the principal amount to be prepaid in connection with (i) any prepayments (whether before or after an event of default), (ii) any payment, repayment or redemption of the obligations following an acceleration or (iii) certain bankruptcy events. Thereafter, the Debt Facility may be prepaid without penalty or premium.
Interest on borrowings under the Debt Facility accrue at a rate of 7.0% per annum, payable quarterly, in cash or, at the election of the borrower, as a payment-in-kind. Any amounts paid in kind will be added to the principal amount of the Debt Facility on such interest payment date (increasing the principal amount thereof) and will thereafter bear interest at the rate set forth above.
The Debt Facility is guaranteed by Intermediate Holdings and secured by (i) a first priority pledge of the equity interests of Merger Sub and (ii) a first priority lien on substantially all other assets of Merger Sub and Intermediate Holdings (subject to customary exceptions).
The Credit Agreement requires Merger Sub to maintain minimum consolidated liquidity (comprised of unrestricted cash of Merger Sub and its subsidiaries and unused availability under any revolving credit facilities of Merger Sub and its subsidiaries) of $15,000,000 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.
The Credit Agreement also includes a number of customary negative covenants. Such covenants, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of each of Intermediate Holdings, Merger Sub and its subsidiaries to:
| · | incur additional indebtedness and make guarantees; |
| · | incur liens on assets; |
| · | engage in mergers or consolidations or fundamental changes; |
| · | dispose of assets; |
| · | pay dividends and distributions or repurchase capital stock; |
| · | make investments, loans and advances, including acquisitions; |
| · | amend organizational documents and other material contracts; |
| · | enter into certain agreements that would restrict the ability to incur liens on assets; |
| · | repay certain junior indebtedness; |
| · | enter into certain transactions with affiliates; |
| · | enter into sale leaseback transactions; and |
| · | change the conduct of its business. |
The aforementioned restrictions are subject to certain exceptions including (i) the ability to incur additional indebtedness, liens, investments, dividends and distributions, and prepayments of junior indebtedness subject, in each case, to compliance with certain financial metrics and/or certain other conditions and (ii) a number of other traditional exceptions that grant Merger Sub continued flexibility to operate and develop its business.
The Credit Agreement also includes customary affirmative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default.
Debt Warrants
In connection with the Debt Facility, the Company issued warrants to the lenders under the Debt Facility, exercisable for 384,615 shares of common stock (the “Debt Warrants”). The Debt Warrants became exercisable after the consummation of the Business Combination and (i) will expire four (4) years from the Closing Date, (ii) have an exercise price of $13.00 per share, and (iii) include customary anti-dilution protection, including broad-based weighted average adjustments for issuances of additional shares. Holders of the Debt Warrants have customary registration rights with respect to the shares underlying the Debt Warrants. In addition, the Company is required to repay the Debt Facility in full in the event that either (i) the registration statement for the resale of the shares of the Company’s common stock (“common stock”) underlying the Notes (as defined below) and Debt Warrants has not been filed within 30 days after the Closing Date, or (ii) such registration statement is not effective within 180 days after the Closing Date. Such repayment shall be payable within nine months after the Debt Facility becomes due.
The foregoing description of the Debt Warrants does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Debt Warrants, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.4 and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Debt Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Credit Agreement and the Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of November 15, 2018, by and among Merger Sub, the other Grantors party thereto, and Luxor Capital, as Collateral Agent, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.3 and 10.4 and are incorporated herein by reference.
Convertible Notes
On November 15, 2018, in connection with the Closing and pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter, the Company entered into a convertible notes credit agreement (the “Convertible Notes Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company issued unsecured convertible promissory notes to Luxor Capital Partners, LP, Luxor Capital Partners Offshore Master Fund, LP, Luxor Wavefront, LP and Lugard Road Capital Master Fund, LP (collectively, the “Convertible Note Purchasers”) in the aggregate principal amount of $60,000,000 (the “Notes” and together with the Debt Facility the “Debt Financings”). The Notes bear interest at 1.0% per annum, paid quarterly in cash, and will mature four years from the date of the Closing, unless earlier converted at the election of the holder. Upon maturity, the outstanding Notes (and any accrued but unpaid interest) will be repaid in cash or converted into shares of common stock, at the holder’s election.
At any time at the holder’s election, each Note may be converted in whole or in part into shares of common stock at a rate of $13.00 per share (subject to a 9.9% conversion cap). The Notes include customary anti-dilution protection, including broad-based weighted average adjustments for issuances of additional shares, and the shares issuable upon their conversion have certain registration rights.
The Company may only prepay the Notes with the consent of the holders of at least a majority-in-interest of the outstanding Notes.
The Company’s payment obligations on the Notes are not guaranteed. The Convertible Notes Agreement contains negative covenants, affirmative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default that are substantially similar to those that are set forth in the Credit Agreement and applicable to Merger Sub (except those that relate to collateral and related security interests, which are not contained in the Convertible Notes Agreement or otherwise applicable to the Notes).

In addition, the Company repaid FEI $1,250,000 in cash and issued to FEI 75,000 shares of common stock at the Closing in full satisfaction of FEI’s prior $1,500,000 convertible loan to the Company.

The Company intends to enter into agreements with its officers and directors to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification provided for in the Third Amended and Restated Charter. The Amended and Restated Bylaws (as defined below) also permit the Company to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director or employee for any liability arising out of his or her actions, regardless of whether Delaware law would permit such indemnification. The Company may purchase a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures its officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures the Company against its obligations to indemnify its officers and directors.
