In January 2021, Adara Enterprises, Corp. (“Adara” or “AEC”) received notice from ESW Holdings, Inc. (“ESW”) that Adara had defaulted on its obligation to pay at maturity, i.e., on January 20, 2021, $11,000,000 in principal and all other amounts due to ESW under a Loan and Security Agreement (“ESW Loan Agreement”), dated July 21, 2020. Pursuant to the ESW Loan Agreement, AEC gave to ESW a security interest in all of AEC’s assets, and GlassBridge pledged to ESW all of GlassBridge’s AEC stock and 30% of GlassBridge’s SportBLX stock. The Loan Agreement provides that, upon AEC’s default, AEC may elect to cooperate with ESW to effect a prearranged reorganization of AEC in bankruptcy, pursuant to which ESW would acquire all equity in AEC, as reorganized, and indirectly certain of AEC’s assets, most notably property and equipment consisting of quantitative trading software, as well as deferred tax assets resulting from AEC’s net operating losses. Within the agreement, ESW agreed to provide $8.5 million to the bankruptcy estate to cover costs of administering the AEC bankruptcy case and to satisfy the claims of valid creditors, with all residual funds to be paid to GlassBridge. The $8.5 million was to be paid upon the effectiveness of AEC’s Chapter 11 plan (less any amounts advanced to AEC in the form of a DIP loan) and maintained awaiting outside creditor claims. Neither GlassBridge nor AEC can predict at this time how much, if any, of the $8.5 million will remain after such creditor claims and other administrative expenses.

 

AEC’s prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of reorganization was confirmed at a hearing on June 9, 2021 and became effective on June 15, 2021 (the “Effective Date”). Upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, ESW deposited $8.5 million, less $325,000 that ESW had previously funded in the form of a post-petition debtor-in-possession loan, into a distribution trust established pursuant to AEC’s Chapter 11 plan to fund the costs of administration associated with AEC’s bankruptcy case and to satisfy valid creditor claims. Also on the Effective Date, by order of the Bankruptcy Court, GlassBridge shares of AEC were terminated, and shares in reorganized AEC were issued as follows: 50% of the equity in reorganized AEC was issued to ESW, and the other 50% of the equity in reorganized AEC was issued to ESW’s affiliate, ESW Capital LLC. Finally, on the Effective Date, GlassBridge received a release of its guaranty obligations to ESW as well as a license to use AEC’s quantitative trading software in connection with the sports industry.

 

On May 20, 2021, the Company received notice from OTCMarkets that, because we had not yet filed Form 10-K for 2020, quotation of the Company’s shares would be moved from the OTCQB market to Pink at market open on May 21, 2021. Upon the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company will seek to restore quotation of the Company’s shares to the OTCQB market.

 

On June 30, 2021, the Company received notice that the $0.4 million Bank Loan from Signature Bank pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program was forgiven in full.

 

On July 31, 2021, Mr. Hall and Mr. De Perio agreed to accept $2,354,736 and $1,060,264, respectively, from the Company in satisfaction of its obligations to them in the amounts of $12,116,718 and $5,455,782, respectively. The obligations were due December 12, 2022 and bore interest at a 5% annual rate. Accordingly, GLAE’s obligations in the amounts of $12,116,718 and $5,455,782 are now paid in full.

 

Also, on July 31, 2021, the Company assigned obligations owed to it from its 50.1% subsidiary, Sport-BLX, Inc., totaling $4,176,102.11, to Fintech Debt Corp., of which Mr. Hall and Mr. De Perio are controlling stockholders, for $400,000.

 

On August 6, 2021, agreements, each dated August 2, 2021, except as otherwise stated, between the Company and the other parties, identified below were released from escrow, thereby becoming effective.

 

The Company entered into a Term Loan and Security Agreement (“GHI Loan Agreement”) with Gazellek Holdings I, LLC (“GHI LLC”), pursuant to which GHI LLC lent $3,450,000 to the Company on August 6, 2021. The loan bears in-kind interest at the annual rate of 7%, is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets and those of all of its subsidiaries, which are required to guarantee the loan, and matures August 2, 2024.

 

The Company is required to prepay the loan upon receiving proceeds from future indebtedness exceeding $5,000,000 (other than indebtedness that is junior to the loan), or if the Company issues any capital stock (provided that the Company is allowed to retain up to 20% of the proceeds from such issuance). The GHI Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and events of default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the loan bears interest at a rate 5% above of the then-effective interest rate and, at GHI LLC’s option, is payable either in cash or in cash and shares of GLAE common stock, valued at market, equal to up to 10% of the outstanding principal amount of the loan. A default fee equal to 0.5% of the outstanding principal applies in the case of any default existing for 10 days or more.

 

In connection with the loan, the Company issued to GHI LLC, for $120,000, a Common Stock Purchase Warrant entitling GHI LLC to purchase 4.8% of GLAE’s outstanding common stock, at the price of $0.01 per share, and a second Common Stock Purchase Warrant entitling GHI LLC to purchase 5.2% of GLAE’s outstanding common stock, at the price of $169.62 per share. The second warrant is automatically canceled if the Company consummates a Sale Transaction that is sourced other than by GHI LLC or its affiliates. A “Sale Transaction” is a merger, consolidation, combination or similar transaction (in one or a series of related transactions), such that the beneficial owners of shares of GLAE common stock immediately prior to the transaction or transactions will, immediately after such transaction or transactions, beneficially own less than a majority of the shares of common stock or outstanding equity of the surviving corporation (on a fully diluted basis). Each warrant expires August 2, 2026, is exercisable on a net basis; entitles its holder to receive certain distributions on GLAE’s common stock, as if the warrant had been exercised; and bears registration rights respecting the underlying common stock. The first warrant purports to give its holder voting rights, as if the warrant had been exercised. The sale was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Sec. 4(a)(2), as not involving any public offering, because no general solicitation was involved, and GHI LLC is an accredited professional investor, which agreed to accept restricted securities. Also, in connection with the loan, the Company and GHI LLC entered into a consulting agreement, pursuant to which the Company will pay GHI LLC a $2,100,000 consulting fee, in three installments, by January 1, 2023.
