| Item 2.03. | Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
On August 10, 2023, United Homes Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among the Company, Great Southern Homes, Inc., a South Carolina corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“GSH”) (the Company and GSH, individually or collectively, jointly and severally, the “Borrower”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as the sole Lead Arranger and sole Bookrunner, and the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”). The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amends and restates the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 30, 2023 (as the same may have been amended, the “Existing Credit Agreement”) in its entirety and adds the Company as a party. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given them in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for a three-year revolving credit facility of up to $240,000,000 (the “Revolving Loans” or the “Amended Credit Facility”). The Amended Credit Facility also includes a $2,000,000 letter of credit as a sub-facility subject to the same terms and conditions as the Amended Credit Facility. The Company pays a fee ranging between 15 and 30 basis points per annum depending on the unused amount of the Amended Credit Facility. The fee is computed on a daily basis and paid quarterly in arrears. The Maturity Date of the Amended Credit Facility is August 10, 2026.
The Amended Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants, including (a) the Borrower must maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth of no less than the sum of (i) $70 million, (ii) 25% of positive Consolidated Earnings earned in any fiscal quarter ending on or after September 30, 2023, (iii) 100% of new equity contributed to the Borrower following the Effective Date, (iv) 100% of any increase in Tangible Net Worth resulting from an Equity Issuance upon the conversion or exchange of any security constituting Indebtedness that is convertible or exchangeable, or is being converted or exchanged, for Equity Interests; and (v) 100% of the amount of any repurchase of Equity Interests in the Borrower; (b) a maximum leverage covenant that prohibits the Leverage Ratio from exceeding 2.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter until December 31, 2023, or 2.25 to 1.00 thereafter, (c) a minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 2.50 to 1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter, and (d) minimum Liquidity of not less than the greater of (y) $20,000,000 or (z) an amount equal to 1.5 times the trailing twelve month Interest Incurred, at all times and (e) unrestricted cash of not less than fifty percent (50%) of the Liquidity required, at all times.
Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of either Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus an applicable margin (ranging from 275 basis points to 350 basis points) based on the Company’s leverage ratio as determined in accordance with a pricing grid, or the Base Rate plus the aforementioned applicable margin.
The Borrower may voluntarily prepay loans under the Amended Credit Facility, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Borrower may be required to make certain mandatory prepayments prior to the Maturity Date.
The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also contains certain additional affirmative and negative covenants and customary events of default provisions, including, subject to thresholds and grace periods, among others, payment default, covenant default, cross default to other material indebtedness, judgment default, and change of control/change of ownership.
The foregoing description of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
