Section 2 - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

ITEM 2.03.   CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT.

 

On March 1, 2012, Cagle’s, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Cagle’s Farms, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a letter agreement substituting new Sale Transaction Benchmarks under  the Debtor in Possession Credit and Security Agreement signed October 24, 2011 and amended by the First Amendment to Debtor in Possession Credit and Security Agreement on November 23, 2011, and by previous letter agreements dated December 22, 2011, January 26, 2012 and February 16, 2012 (the “Agreement”) with AgSouth Farm Credit, ACA, an agricultural credit association (the “Lender”).

 

The original Debtor in Possession Credit and Security Agreement defined the requirements for an acceptable reorganization plan.  The First Amendment to Debtor in Possession Credit and Security Agreement also required the Company to initiate a process to sell a significant portion or substantially all of the Company’s assets in 90 days and to meet certain progress benchmarks in connection with such sale.  The previous letter agreements extended the benchmarks.

 

This letter agreement dated March 1, 2012, extends until March 16, 2012, the deadline for executing a Sale Transaction Agreement covering substantially all, or a significant portion of, the Company’s assets.  The deadline for filing a motion in bankruptcy court to approve the Sale Transaction is extended until March 19, 2012.

 

No other changes to the Agreement materially modify the description in the Company’s previous 8-K filings.
