Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 17, 2024, Alico, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Sixth Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) in order to amend its amended and restated credit agreement dated as of December 1, 2014, as amended to date, by and among the Company, Alico Land Development, Inc., Alico Fruit Company, LLC, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, and New England Life Insurance Company (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). Among other things, the Amendment (i) increases the borrowing capacity under the revolving line of credit (the “RLOC Loan”) from $25 million to $95 million, subject to such limitations on disbursements as set forth in the Amendment and (ii) extends the maturity date of its revolving credit facility thereunder to May 1, 2034 (the “Maturity Date”). The RLOC Loan is secured by real property, consisting of approximately 36,800 gross acres of citrus land. In addition, in connection with the Amendment, the Company paid off its current borrowings under the $70 million working capital line of credit, subject to cancellation of its outstanding letters of credit, with Rabo Agrifinance, Inc. and replaced the Rabo Agrifinance working capital line of credit, which was due to mature on November 1, 2025.
In addition, under the Amendment, funds from the RLOC Loan may be used by the Company for general corporate purposes. The RLOC Loan floating interest rate shall be equal to the sum of (i) the RLOC SOFR Credit Spread (as defined in the Amendment) plus (ii) the United States One (1) Month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate as determined by MetLife Investment Management, LLC. The RLOC Loan repayment shall be in interest only until the Maturity Date, and accrued interest on the outstanding principal balance shall be payable on October 1, 2024 and quarterly thereafter. Beginning August 25, 2025 and payable annually, the Company shall pay an unused commitment fee calculated according to the terms of the Amendment. In addition, subject to the terms and conditions specified in the loan documents, the Company may request, subject to specified terms, RLOC advances on the RLOC Loan and each advance shall be in an amount not less than $1 million. In any event of default under the loan documents, the default interest rate shall be 15% per annum.
