Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 12, 2022, The Greenrose Holding Company Inc. (the “Company” or “Greenrose”) as Borrower, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Theraplant, LLC and True Harvest Holdings, Inc. as Guarantors, entered into the Forbearance Agreement with the Lenders party to the Credit Agreement dated November 26, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”) and DXR Finance, LLC as Agent (the “Forbearance Agreement”). Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement the parties thereto have agreed that that the Lenders and the Agent shall provide a limited forbearance (as set forth in Section 2.02 of the Forbearance Agreement) by terms of which the Lenders and the Agent shall forbear from accelerating the Obligations and otherwise exercising any rights, remedies, powers, privileges and defenses under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement), for the Forbearance Period (as defined in the Section 2.02 of the Forbearance Agreement) that shall expire on the Forbearance Termination Date (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement) and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, solely as a result of the existence of the Specified Defaults listed in the Forbearance Agreement.

 

The foregoing description of the Forbearance Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Forbearance Agreement, a copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Credit Agreement, including the Loan Documents, was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as Exhibit 10.3 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 2, 2021, as amended and filed with the SEC as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 6, 2022, as further amended from time to time.

 

Secured Promissory Note

 

On October 12, 2022, simultaneously with entering into the Forbearance Agreement, the Company entered into a secured promissory note in the principal amount of U.S.$15,300,000.00 with DXR Finance, LLC as the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders under the Forbearance Agreement (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to the terms of the Closing Date Warrant and the Delayed Draw Warrant (as defined in the Credit Agreement), as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time prior to the date of the Promissory Note. On each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the Company shall pay to the Agent U.S.$1,912,500.00 of the principal amount of the loan. Subject to the acceleration provisions of Section 6 of the Promissory Note, any unpaid principal, fees and accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts shall be due and payable in full on the date that is two (2) years from the date of the Promissory Note (the “Maturity Date”). The unpaid principal amount of the Promissory Note shall accrue interest daily on the basis of a 360 day year at the LIBO Rate plus sixteen per cent (16.00%) per annum, provided that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement), the outstanding principal amount of this Note and any accrued and unpaid interest and all other overdue amounts shall each bear interest until paid at the stated rate plus two per cent (2.00%) per annum. Interest shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement). After the Maturity Date (as defined in the Promissory Note and referenced above), interest will continue to accrue on any unpaid principal and shall be due and payable on demand. The LIBO Rate shall not at any time be less than one per cent (1.00%) per annum. The Company may at any time and from time to time prepay any principal amount on the Promissory Note in whole or in part without premium or penalty. Payments and prepayments made by the Company shall be applied first to expenses recoverable under the Promissory Note, then to accrued and unpaid interest and lastly to principal. The Promissory Note is being delivered as required under the terms of the Warrants previously filed with the SEC as Exhibit 10.3 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 14, 2022.

 

The foregoing description of the Promissory Note does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Forbearance Agreement, a copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Notice of Additional Default

 

On October 10, 2022, the Company received a Notice of Additional Default (the "Notice of Additional Default") from the legal representatives on behalf of DXR Finance, LLC ("DXR Finance"), in reference to the Credit Agreement, by and among the Company, as Borrower (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the lenders identified on the signature pages of the Credit Agreement ("Lenders"), and DXR Finance, as Agent (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the Lenders. This Notice of Additional Default follows the Notice of Default (“Notice of Default”) filed with the SEC in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 4, 2022.

 

In the Notice of Additional Default, DXR Finance notified the Company that the previously reported Impending Default is now an Event of Default because the Company failed to make the interest payment that was due on September 30, 2022 and has failed to cure the failure by making the payment within five (5) business days. In the Notice of Additional Default, DXR Finance indicates it is considering its rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement), including but not limited to those identified in Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement with respect to the Specified Defaults (as defined in the Notice of Additional Default) and the Notice of Default, without waiving any rights, remedies, powers, privileges and defenses afforded under the Credit Agreement and Loan Documents. The parties have addressed the Notice of Additional Default by entering into the above referenced Forbearance Agreement. A copy of the Notice of Additional Default is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein.
