Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On February 22, 2018, AirCo 1, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AirCo, LLC, closed a revolving loan in the maximum amount of $5,000,000 (“Loan Agreement”) from Minnesota Bank & Trust to finance, in part, the ongoing purchase of decommissioned Boeing 737 airframes by AirCo 1, LLC for the purpose of disassembling the Boeing 737 airframes and selling them for parts. The Boeing 737 airframes will be disassembled by Jet Yard, LLC, an affiliate, and the parts would be sold on consignment to AirCo, LLC, an affiliate, which will market them to third parties. Borrowings under the Loan Agreement will bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.00% per year with interest payments due on the first day of each month commencing on March 31, 2018. The entire remaining principal balance of this Loan Agreement and any accrued, unpaid interest shall be due and payable on February 21, 2019.

 

While AirCo 1, LLC was originally formed with the intention of being a special purpose entity for the purchase of a specific Boeing 737-800 airframe in October 2017, AirCo 1, LLC will no longer be a special purpose entity and will be involved in the ongoing purchase of Boeing 737 airframes for purposes of disassembling them and selling them for parts. The revolving line of credit described in this paragraph will be available to finance the purchase of additional decommissioned Boeing 737 airframes to be disassembled and sold as parts by AirCo 1, LLC.

 

The loan contains affirmative and negative covenants and is secured by security interests in all of AirCo 1, LLC’s assets, a collateral assignments of the purchase agreements for the Boeing 737 airframes, assignments of the disassembly contracts and the consignment agreements, and bailee agreements with Jet Yard, LLC and AirCo, LLC. The loan is also secured by a pledge by AirCo, LLC of all of the membership interests of AirCo 1, LLC.

 

The above discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second Loan Agreement, Airframe Acquisition Note and Pledge Agreement filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 filed herewith, which are incorporated herein by reference.
