Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Convertible Note Purchase Agreements
Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc. (the Company) issued senior secured convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $40 million in July 2008 (the Notes) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 27, 2008 (the Securities Purchase Agreement). The Notes mature on July 15, 2013, bear interest at 5.875% per annum and are currently convertible into common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $30 per share.
On June 22, 2010, the Company entered into Convertible Note Purchase Agreements (the Purchase Agreements) with holders of Notes who hold, in the aggregate, $25.5 million of the principal amount of the Notes, or approximately 64% of all of the Notes currently outstanding (the Participating Holders). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Company has agreed to purchase the Notes held by the Participating Holders for a purchase price equal to 88% of the principal amount of the Notes held by the Participating Holders, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company also agreed to pay the Participating Holders 2% of the principal amount of the Notes (the Lock-Up Fee) in exchange for the Participating Holders agreement not to transfer their Notes for a period of up to 47 days, which may be extended by up to 10 days in limited circumstances (the Lock-Up Period).
The Company intends to conduct a rights offering, pursuant to which the Companys shareholders will have the pro rata right to purchase shares of common stock of the Company in an aggregate amount of up to $40 million. The Company must raise sufficient capital as a result of the rights offering to allow it to purchase all of the Notes held by the Participating Holders. The Company may enter into additional Purchase Agreements with other holders of the Notes prior to completing the rights offering. If the Company is unable to complete the rights offering prior to expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Purchase Agreements will terminate and the Company will not be entitled to a return of the Lock-Up Fee.
Amendments to Notes
The Notes allow the holders to require the Company to redeem the Notes at 100% of the principal amount in the event of a change in control transaction, which includes the acquisition by one or more shareholders acting as a group of 50% or more of the Companys outstanding common stock. The Notes also allow the holders to require the Company to redeem the Notes at 100% of the principal amount on the third anniversary of the issuance date of the Notes, or July 28, 2011.
The Notes may be amended, or provisions of the Notes may be waived, by holders of Notes holding at least 60% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes currently outstanding. Accordingly, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreements, the Participating Holders have agreed to waive the Holders right to require the Company to redeem the Notes in the event of a change in control transaction resulting from the contemplated rights offering and to delete the redemption right on the third anniversary of the issuance date, among other things.
The foregoing summary of the terms of the Purchase Agreements is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Purchase Agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.
