Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 24, 2020, Prosper Marketplace, Inc. (the “Company”) received $8,447,100 in loan funding from the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), established pursuant to the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The unsecured loan (the “PPP Loan”) is evidenced by a promissory note issued by the Company (the “Note”) in favor of Broadway National Bank, the lender. The Company plans to use the PPP Loan proceeds to cover payroll costs, rent and utilities in accordance with the relevant terms and conditions of the CARES Act.  

 

Subject to the terms of the Note, the PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of one percent (1%) per annum, with the first six months of interest deferred, has a term of two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the SBA.

 

Under the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of the loan granted under the PPP, with such forgiveness to be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of the loan proceeds for payment of payroll costs and any payments of rent, as well as certain other factors. The terms of any forgiveness may also be subject to further requirements in any regulations and guidelines the SBA may adopt. While the Company currently believes that its use of the Note proceeds will meet the conditions for forgiveness under the PPP, no assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the Note in whole or in part.

 

To the extent the PPP Loan amount is not forgiven under the PPP, the Company is obligated to make equal monthly payments of principal and interest, beginning seven months from the date of the Note, until the maturity date. The Note may be prepaid in part or in full, at any time, without penalty. The Note provides for customary events of default, and the PPP Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain such events.

 

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Note, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporated herein by reference.
