Fannie Mae Loan Modification
Previous report
On June 29, 2023, the Company entered into the Fannie Forbearance with Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) for all 37 of its encumbered communities, effective as of June 1, 2023 (“Fannie Forbearance Effective Date”). Under the Fannie Forbearance, Fannie Mae agreed to forbear on its remedies otherwise available under the community mortgages and Master Credit Facility (“MCF”) in connection with reduced debt service payments made by the Company during the forbearance period. In connection with the Fannie Forbearance, the Company made a $5.0 million principal payment in July 2023. The Fannie Forbearance was the first of a two-step process to modify all existing mortgage loan agreements with Fannie Mae by October 2023 under proposed loan modification agreements, as defined in the Fannie Forbearance (“Loan Modification Agreements”). Terms outlined in an agreed upon term sheet accompanying the Fannie Forbearance were included in the Loan Modification Agreementsas the final step to modify the various 37 Fannie Mae community mortgages and MCF prior to the expiration of the Fannie Forbearance, which was subsequently extended to October 6, 2023.
Previous report
The Company entered into Loan Modification Agreements with Fannie Mae on October 2, 2023. The material terms of the Loan Modification Agreements were as follows:
Previous report
•Maturities on 18 community mortgages, ranging from July 2024 to December 2026, were extended to December 2026. The remaining 19 communities under the MCF have existing maturities in January 2029.
Previous report
•The Company is not required to make scheduled principal payments due under the 18 community mortgages and 19 communities under the MCF through the revised maturity date of December 2026 or 36 months from the Fannie Forbearance Effective Date, respectively.
Previous report
•The monthly interest rate was reduced by a 1.5% weighted average on all 37 communities for 12 months from the Fannie Forbearance Effective Date and deferred (the “Fannie Interest Abatement Period”). The reduced interest rates expired on June 1, 2024.
Previous report
•A second and final principal payment of $5.0 million was due in June 2024, the one-year anniversary of the Fannie Forbearance Effective Date, which the Company made on June 3, 2024.
Previous report
•In the first twelve months following the effective date of the Loan Modification Agreements, the Company was required to escrow 50% of Net Cash Flow less Debt Service (as defined in the Fannie mortgages and MCF) on an aggregate basis over all 37 Fannie Mae communities. The excess cash flow was deposited into a lender-controlled capital expenditure reserve on a monthly basis to support the re-investment into certain communities, as mutually determined by the Company and Fannie Mae. The Company was able to draw down such amounts on qualifying projects as the capital expenditures were incurred.
Previous report
The Company determined that the Fannie loan modification was a troubled debt restructuring where the total cash outflows exceed the current carrying value of the debt. Restructuring costs related to the Loan Modification Agreements are included in deferred loan costs and are being amortized over the lives of the Fannie Mae loans.

2024 Ally Loan Amendments
Previous report
On June 29, 2023, and concurrent with the Fannie Forbearance, we executed an amendment (“2023 Ally Amendment”) to the Ally term loan agreement (“Ally Term Loan” or “Ally Term Loan Agreement”) and an amended guaranty (“Second Amended Ally Guaranty”) with Ally Bank with terms as follows:
Previous report
•With respect to the Second Amended Ally Guaranty, Ally granted the Company, as Guarantor, a waiver (“Limited Payment Guaranty Waiver” or “Waiver”) of the liquid assets minimum requirement of $13.0 million for a 12-month period. On July 1, 2024, a new liquid assets threshold of $7.0 million became effective, with such threshold increasing $1.0 million per month through the earlier of the release of the Waiver period or December 31, 2024.
Previous report
•During the Waiver period, a new and temporary liquid assets minimum threshold (“Limited Payment Guaranty Waiver Minimum Threshold”) was established. The Limited Payment Guaranty Waiver Minimum Threshold is $6.0 million and is measured weekly. If breached, the “Excess Cash Flow Sweep” is triggered and all excess cash from the communities collateralizing the Ally Term Loan will be swept into an “Equity Cure Fund”, as defined in the Ally Term Loan Agreement. As provided for in the 2023 Ally Amendment, the Excess Cash Flow Sweep, if triggered, will cease upon the achievement of meeting or exceeding the Limited Payment Guaranty Waiver Minimum Threshold for four consecutive weeks. Consistent with the Ally Term Loan, all amounts held in escrow (i.e., Debt Service Escrow and IRC Reserve) will be included and combined with the Company’s unrestricted cash for purposes of measurement against the Limited Payment Guaranty Waiver Minimum Threshold.
Previous report
•During the Waiver period, Ally will collect the equivalent of the monthly Ally Term Loan principal payment (as provided for in the Ally Term Loan Agreement) of approximately $117,000 through an Ally controlled escrow (“Waiver Principal Reserve Account”). Per the Fourth Ally Amendment and the expansion of our loan by $24.8 million, this escrow has increased by an average of $36,000 a month.
Previous report
•Upon meeting the Ally Term Loan’s Liquid Assets Threshold of $13.0 million, the Company may elect to remove the Waiver, with initial terms in the Ally Term Loan applicable again, except as described further below.
Previous report
•In July 2023, we were required to fund $2.3 million to an interest rate cap reserve (“IRC Reserve”) held by Ally, which represented the quoted cost of a one-year interest rate cap on the full $88.1 million notional value of the Ally Term Loan at a 2.25% SOFR strike rate. On December 1, 2023, the Company entered into a new SOFR-based interest rate cap transaction for an aggregate notional amount of $88.1 million at a cost of $2.4 million. The interest rate cap agreement has a 12-month term and caps the floating interest rate portion of our indebtedness with Ally Bank at 2.25%. Until the terms of the Limited Payment Guaranty Waiver have expired or have been met and elected at the Company’s discretion, the IRC Reserve is required to be replenished to its replacement cost.

During 2024, the Company entered into a credit agreement with BMO Bank, N.A. and Royal Bank of Canada for a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of up to $150.0 million, a term of three years, a leverage-based pricing matrix between SOFR plus 2.10% margin and SOFR plus 2.60% margin and is fully recourse to Sonida Senior Living, Inc. and its applicable subsidiaries. The borrowing base by which borrowing availability under the Credit Facility is determined is generally based upon the value of the senior living communities that secure the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2025, $60.0 million of borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of 6.9%, which was secured by 13 of the Company’s senior living communities. As of March 31, 2025, we had an additional borrowing capacity of up to $43.2 million under our Credit Facility. See “Note 17–Subsequent Events” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

We entered into an agreement with one of our previous lenders whereby the Company agreed to purchase the outstanding indebtedness it owed to such lender for a purchase price of $40.2 million (plus the reimbursement of certain amounts advanced to the Company by such lender). On February 2, 2024, the Company completed the purchase of the total outstanding principal balance of $74.4 million from the lender that was secured by seven of the Company’s senior living communities (such transaction, the “2024 Loan Purchase”). The 2024 Loan Purchase was funded by expanding the Company’s existing loan facility with Ally Bank (“Ally”) by $24.8 million and the remainder was funded by proceeds from the 2024 Private Placement, see “Note 7–Securities Financing” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The 2024 Loan Purchase and Ally financing closed on February 2, 2024, reduced notes payable by $49.6 million, and resulted in a gain on debt extinguishment totaling $38.1 million. The Company incurred deferred loan costs of $0.5 million as part of the Ally financing that are amortized over the loan term. As part of the agreement with Ally, the Company expanded its current interest rate cap to include the additional borrowing at a cost of $0.6 million. The expanded Ally debt facility is secured by six of the Company’s senior living communities involved in the transaction.

As part of the Ally Third Amendment, the Company expanded its current interest rate cap to include the additional borrowing at a cost of $0.6 million and increased the monthly interest rate cap reserve (“IRC Reserve”) held by Ally to match the notional amount required under the increased obligation. The expanded Ally debt facility is secured by six of the Company’s senior living communities involved in the transaction.
Previous wording
On May 22, 2024, the Company executed an amendment (“Ally Fourth Amendment”) to the Ally term loan agreement. Ally Bank successfully syndicated a portion of its total term loan commitment to Cross River Bank. Following the syndication, Ally Bank and Cross River Bank owned 67.5% and 32.5% of the outstanding principal balance, respectively. As each lender loans a specific amount to the debtor and has the right to repayment from the debtor this transaction is considered a loan syndication and the guidance in ASC 470-50 should be applied to the modified loans on a creditor-by-creditor basis. As Ally Bank was the sole lender prior to the syndication, there is no change in the allocation of deferred loan costs, and they will continue to be amortized over the loan term.

During 2023, we entered into loan modifications with Fannie Mae, an amendment with Ally Bank, including a revised Limited Payment Guaranty, and an Equity Commitment with Conversant. During 2024, we completed the 2024 Private Placement pursuant to which we issued and sold an aggregate of 5.0 million shares of our common stock to several of our shareholders for gross cash proceeds of $47.8 million, which enabled us to purchase all of the Company’s debt then outstanding with a certain lender at a substantial discount, as well as fund future working capital and growth initiatives.
