M&T Bank Loan

 

On April 17, 2019, SeD Maryland Development LLC (“SeD Maryland”) entered into a Development Loan Agreement with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T Bank”) in the principal amount not to exceed at any one time outstanding the sum of $8,000,000, with a cumulative loan advance amount of $18,500,000. The line of credit bore interest rate of LIBOR plus 375 basis points. SeD Maryland was also provided with a Letter of Credit (“L/C”) Facility in an aggregate amount of up to $900,000. The L/C commission is 1.5% per annum on the face amount of the L/C. Other standard lender fees apply in the event L/C is drawn down. The loan was a revolving line of credit. The L/C Facility was not a revolving loan, and amounts advanced and repaid could not be re-borrowed. Repayment of the Loan Agreement was secured by $2,600,000 collateral fund and a Deed of Trust issued to the Lender on the property owned by SeD Maryland. The loan has expired during 2022 and only L/C is outstanding as of December 31, 2024. On March 15, 2022 approximately $2,300,000 was released from collateral, and on December 14, 2023 approximately $200,000 was released from collateral, leaving $107,874 as collateral for outstanding letters of credit as of December 31, 2024. Following the completion of the distribution of shares of Alset Real Estate Holdings Inc. in 2025, the collateral referenced above is no longer held by the Company.
