Monroe Term Loans—In March 2022, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Monroe Credit Agreement”) with certain financial institutions from time to time party thereto, as lenders, and Monroe Capital Management Advisors, LLC, as administrative agent and lead arranger (“Monroe Capital”). The Monroe Credit Agreement provides for the following:

In connection with the foregoing, the Company borrowed Term A-1 Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $70.0 million. Proceeds of the Term A-1 Loans were used (a) to repay in full the approximately $24.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Company’s existing first lien loan facility with Silicon Valley Bank, as lender (the “First Lien Loan”), including accrued and unpaid interest and related fees, (b) to pay transaction-related fees and expenses and (c) for general corporate purposes and working capital needs of the Company and its subsidiaries. With respect to the Term A-2 Loans, pursuant to the Monroe Credit Agreement, the lenders thereunder were deemed to have rolled over their $20.0 million aggregate principal amount of term loans outstanding under the Borrower’s existing second lien loan with affiliates of Monroe Capital (the “Second Lien Loan”) in the same aggregate principal amount as their respective commitments with respect to the Term A-2 Loans, following which all obligations in respect of the Second Lien Loan were deemed to be satisfied and paid in full.

The Term A-1 Loans and Term B Loans bear annual interest, payable monthly, at a floating rate measured by reference to, at the Company’s option, either (a) a base rate then in effect (equal to the greater of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the prime rate, (iii) 2.00% and (iv) an adjusted one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 6.00% to 8.25% per annum, depending on whether the “EBITDA Trigger Date” has occurred, the Company’s “Enterprise Value” and, once the EBITDA Trigger Date has occurred, its “Total Debt to EBITDA Ratio” (as such terms are defined in the Monroe Credit Agreement) or (b) an adjusted one-month or three-month SOFR (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 7.00% to 9.25% per annum, depending on whether the EBITDA Trigger Date has occurred, the Company’s Enterprise Value and, once the EBITDA Trigger Date has occurred, its Total Debt to EBITDA Ratio. The Term A-2 Loans bear annual interest, payable monthly, at the greater of (i) 12% and (ii) a floating rate measured by reference to the prime rate plus 5.75% per annum, subject to a cap of 15%. The interest rate as of June 30, 2022 on the Term A-1 Loans and Term A-2 Loans was 9.50% and 12.00%, respectively.

The Term A-1 Loans and the Term B Loans mature on March 24, 2026, and the Term A-2 Loans mature on May 1, 2023. The Monroe Term Loans may be prepaid at the Company’s option at any time, in minimum principal amounts, and are subject to mandatory prepayment in an amount equal to 100% of the net cash proceeds upon the occurrence of certain asset dispositions and equity and debt offerings, 100% of certain extraordinary cash receipts and 0-50% of certain excess cash flow, in each case as specified in the Monroe Credit Agreement and subject to certain reinvestment rights as set forth in the Monroe Credit Agreement. Upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, including any prepayment of any Monroe Term Loans for any reason (subject to limited exceptions), the Company is required to pay a premium ranging from 0.00% to 3.00% of the principal amount of such prepayment depending on the Monroe Term Loans repaid and the date of the prepayment, plus, in the case of any Monroe Term Loans other than Term A-2 Loans and in the event the prepayment occurs within 12 months after the closing date, all interest that would have otherwise been payable on the amount of the principal prepayment from the date of prepayment to and including the date that is 12 months after the closing date.

The Monroe Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to minimum adjusted revenue, EBITDA, liquidity and unrestricted cash (all as defined in the Monroe Credit Agreement). The negative covenants, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the “Loan Parties” (as defined in the Monroe Credit Agreement) and their subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness; incur additional liens; make dividends, distributions and other restricted payments; merge, consolidate, sell, transfer, dispose of, convey or lease assets or equity interests; purchase or otherwise acquire assets or equity interests; modify organizational documents; enter into certain transactions with affiliates; enter into restrictive agreements; engage in other business activities; and make investments.

The obligations under the Monroe Credit Agreement are guaranteed by MoneyLion Inc., as parent, and each of its direct and indirect existing and future wholly-owned subsidiary, other than SPVs, certain foreign subsidiaries, certain regulated subsidiaries and certain other excluded subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). The Monroe Credit Agreement is entered into by MoneyLion Technologies Inc. The Monroe Credit Agreement is secured with a perfected, first-priority security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible assets of MoneyLion Technologies Inc. and each Guarantor, subject to certain customary exceptions.

The settlement of the First Lien Loan was accounted for as a debt extinguishment and the Second Lien Loan was accounted for as a debt modification resulting in total expense recognized of $730 comprised of settlement fees and the write off of unamortized deferred financing costs.
