Item 2.03.  Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On June 21, 2011, Kali Tuna, a wholly owned subsidiary of Umami Sustainable Seafood, Inc. (the “Company”), signed loan documents related to a working capital loan totaling approximately $15.4 million with Erste & Steiermaerkische bank d.d.  Kali Tuna may begin drawing down the loan in early July 2011.  The funds are available for working capital needs of Kali Tuna and require that matching funds be provided by the Company or pursuant to sales proceeds for each dollar borrowed.  The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 2.8% per annum for 40% of the loan and a floating rate which is based on treasury notes of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Croatia plus 3% for the remaining 60%.  The effective combined rate is currently approximately 5% per year.  The loan is due no later than December 31, 2014.  The loan is secured by live Bluefin tuna owned by Kali Tuna.  The agreement includes events of default primarily related to Kali Tuna’s ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due including those related to the note.  Interest is paid quarterly.
