Item 2.04.              Triggering  Events That  Accelerate  or  Increase a Direct  Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

 

As previously disclosed in its Form 8-K/A filed on March 5, 2009, on December 10, 2008, CLST Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), through CLST Asset Trust II (“Trust II”), a trust wholly owned by CLST Asset II, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of CLST Financo, Inc. (“Financo”), which is one of our direct, wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a purchase agreement to acquire, subject to certain limitations, on or before February 28, 2009, certain receivables, installment sales contracts and related assets of at least $2 million owned by SSPE Investment Trust I (the “SSPE Trust”) and SSPE, LLC (“SSPE”) (the “Purchase Agreement”).   The purchases of receivables by Trust II were financed by cash on hand and by advances under a non-recourse, revolving loan, effective as of December 10, 2008, by and among Trust II, Summit Consumer Receivables Fund, L.P., as Originator, SSPE and SSPE Trust, as Co-Borrowers, Summit and Eric J. Gangloff, as Guarantors, Fortress Credit Corp. (“Fortress”), as the Lender, Summit Alternative Investments, LLC, as the Initial Servicer, Lyon Financial Services, Inc., as the backup servicer, and U.S. Bank National Association, as the collateral custodian (the “Trust II Credit Agreement”) and the letter agreement, effective as of December 10, 2008, among Trust II, Financo, the Originator, the Co-Borrowers, the Initial Servicer, and the Guarantors (the “Letter Agreement”).

 

On May 13, 2010, the Company received a notice of default from Fortress dated May 13, 2010 (the “Default Notice”) stating that an event of default had occurred and was continuing under the Trust II Credit Agreement, as a result of the three-month rolling average Class A default ratio of the receivables exceeding 5.0%.  The Default Notice is furnished herewith in its entirety as Exhibit 10.1.  We are reviewing the matters described in the Default Notice, and have not formed an opinion as to whether a default under the Trust II Credit Agreement has occurred and remains uncured.

 

If a default in the covenants has occurred under the Trust II Credit Agreement, the interest rate payable by Trust II will increase by an additional 2% per annum, and Fortress will be entitled to accelerate and declare immediately due all of Trust II’s obligations under the Trust II Credit Agreement.  In addition, if a default under the Trust II Credit Agreement exists and is continuing, Fortress is entitled to foreclose on the assets of Trust II and sell them to satisfy amounts due it under the Trust II Credit Agreement.  Only Trust II is liable for amounts due Fortress under the Trust II Credit Agreement. Thus, although the Company could lose some or all of its investment in Trust II, we will not be obligated to pay any amounts due Fortress under the Trust II Credit Agreement.
