Community Development District Obligation. In May 2020, the Meadow View at Twin Creeks Community Development District issued $8.6 million of community development bonds related to the Company’s Beacon Lake Community development. The bonds issued in May 2020 have fixed interest rates ranging from 4.25% to 5.38% and mature at various times during the years 2026 through 2051. The Company at its option has the ability to repay a specified portion of the bonds at the time that it sells developed lots in the Beacon Lakes Community.   



Toronto-Dominion Commercial Bank (“TD Bank”) Credit Facility.  At September 30, 2020, Renin maintained a credit facility with TD Bank which provided for a revolving line of credit for up to approximately $16.3 million based on available collateral, as defined in the facility, and subject to Renin’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the credit facility, including certain specific financial covenants. Through February 2020, the credit facility also provided for term loans for up to $1.7 million. However, in February 2020, the credit facility was amended to replace the existing debt service coverage ratio with an interest coverage ratio, and in connection with the amendment to the credit facility, Renin repaid the outstanding balance of the term loans with borrowings from the revolving line of credit. In July 2020, the credit facility was also amended to extend the maturity date of the facility from September 2020 to September 2022. As of September 30, 2020, there was $8.3 million available to Renin under the TD Bank revolving line of credit, subject to available collateral and the terms of the facility, and Renin was in compliance with all financial debt covenants under the credit facility.



In October 2020, the credit facility with TD Bank was amended and restated to include a $30.0 million term loan and an operating loan of up to $20 million and extend the maturity of the facility to October 2025, and Renin utilized $30.0 million of proceeds under the term loan and approximately $8.0 million of proceeds under the operating loan in connection with the acquisition of Colonial Elegance. See Note 18 for additional information related to the facility, including BBX Capital’s pledge of its membership interest in Renin.

   

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on Renin’s operations could impact its ability to remain in compliance with the financial covenants and the extent of availability under its credit facility with TD Bank in future periods. If Renin is unable to maintain compliance with its debt covenants or obtain waivers if it is not in compliance with such covenants, Renin will no longer be able to access its revolving line of credit, may have to repay all or a portion of its borrowings prior to the scheduled maturity date, and/or provide additional collateral for such borrowings, any of which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial position, and results of operations. 



Banc of America Leasing & Capital Equipment Note and Bank of America Revolving Line of Credit. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBXRE purchased IT’SUGAR’s revolving line of credit and equipment note from the respective lenders for the outstanding principal balance of the loans plus accrued interest and subsequently advanced an additional $2.0 million to IT’SUGAR pursuant to the terms of the loans. As the Company paid the respective third party lenders and was relieved of its obligations to such lenders under the respective debt arrangements, the Company derecognized the liabilities in its consolidated financial statements in connection with the purchase of the loans by its wholly-owned subsidiary during the three months ended June 30, 2020. However, as described in Note 17, as a result of IT’SUGAR’s filing petitions for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and the related deconsolidation of IT’SUGAR, the loans held by the subsidiary of BBXRE are no longer eliminated in consolidation and are included in investment in and advances to IT’SUGAR in the Company’s statement of financial condition as of September 30, 2020.
