The CDCI Preferred Stock was repurchased at fair market value $15,925,000 which equates to a discount of 7% to par, or $1,198,000.
In connection with the repurchase of the CDCI Preferred Stock, the Company also entered into a loan agreement (the “Agreement”) with First Tennessee Bank National Association (the “Lender”).

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company is required to pay quarterly payments of interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Line of Credit.
The interest rate on the Line of Credit is subject to change from time to time based on changes in the London Interbank Offered Rate of interest for an interest period of three (3) months (“LIBOR Rate”). The initial interest rate to be applied to the unpaid principal balance of the Note will be at a rate of two and 50/100 percent (2.50%) over the LIBOR Rate.
In connection with the Line of Credit, the Company executed a negative pledge agreement with the Lender pursuant to which it agreed not to pledge any capital stock of the Bank so long as any indebtedness is outstanding under the Line of Credit.
The Agreement includes financial covenants and other restrictions customary in financings of this nature. Outstanding indebtedness under the Agreement can be accelerated by the Lender upon the occurrence of customary events of default.
