Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 19, 2021, Byrna Technologies Inc. (the "Company") entered into a
Commercial Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Needham Bank
(the "Bank"), pursuant to which the Bank established a revolving line of credit
of up to $5,000,000 as evidenced by a Secured Revolving Line of Credit Note
executed by the Company in favor of the Bank (the "Revolving Note") and (ii) a
non-revolving equipment line of credit of up to $1,500,000 as evidenced by
equipment term notes in the principal amounts drawn from time to time (the "Term
Notes," and together with the Revolving Note, the "Notes"). Pursuant to the Loan
Agreement, the Company granted the Bank a security interest in substantially all
of the assets of the Company to secure the Notes. The Loan Agreement contains
customary affirmative and negative covenants for loans of this nature.
Interest on each of the Notes accrues at a floating rate equal to the greater of
(i) the sum of the Prime Rate (as described below) plus 0.50%, and (ii) 4.00%,
per annum, and is payable monthly in arrears (except as described below). The
"Prime Rate" means the Prime Rate as published in the "Money Rates" Section of
the Wall Street Journal (or, if such rate is no longer published, such other
comparable reference rate as designated by the Bank). If not sooner repaid or
accelerated, the Revolving Note matures on January 19, 2024. After the first
anniversary of each Term Note, the Company is required to pay, in addition to
interest, amortization payments based on a five-year amortization schedule. The
Company may draw down on the non-revolving equipment line of credit until
January 19, 2023. If not sooner repaid or accelerated, each Term Note matures
six years after its issuance date. The Company may prepay the Notes, in whole or
in part, without penalty at any time. The obligations of the Company under the
Notes may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default under the
Loan Agreement, which includes customary events of default. Additionally, the
Company will be required to pay an unused line fee in respect of unused portions
of the revolving line of credit and the non-revolving equipment line of credit.
The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement, the Revolving Note and the
Form of Term Note are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full and
complete terms of these documents, which are attached as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and
4.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by
reference.
Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously disclosed, on December 1, 2020 the Company entered into a Purchase
Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions (the "Purchase Agreement") with Janes
Source Properties LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the "Seller"), which
Purchase Agreement was dated effective November 27, 2020. Pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase, for a price of $2,100,000,
