ITEM 1.01
ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
 
On November 1, 2021, RGC Midstream, LLC (“Midstream”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of RGC Resources, Inc. (“Resources”), entered into a Loan Agreement ("Agreement") and an unsecured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $8,000,000 (the “Note”) with Atlantic Union Bank (“Atlantic Union”). The Note bears an interest rate of one month LIBOR plus 115 basis points with interest payable monthly and will convert to an installment loan with principal pay-down beginning in fiscal 2023. In connection with this Note and Agreement, Resources executed a Guaranty in favor of Atlantic Union guaranteeing timely payment and performance of obligations by Midstream. The loan matures on December 1, 2027.
 
The proceeds from this note will be used to refinance a portion of Midstream's existing debt under its current Promissory Notes ("Current Notes") and revolving Credit Agreement with Atlantic Union Bank and Truist Bank, originally dated December 29, 2015, as amended. As a result of this refinancing, the corresponding available balances on the Current Notes declined by the $8,000,000, thereby reducing the previous available $41,000,000 to $33,000,000.
 
Also, on November 1, 2021, Midstream executed an interest rate swap agreement for $8,000,000 corresponding to the term and draw provisions of the Note, which effectively converts the variable rate note to a fixed rate instrument with an effective annual interest rate of 2.443%.
 
The Agreements referenced above contain the same financial covenants included in other debt agreements including the limitation of Consolidated Long Term Indebtedness to not more than 65% of Consolidated Total Capitalization and Priority Indebtedness to not more than 15% of Consolidated Total Assets.
