In 2019, the Company purchased from Messrs. Hall and De Perio, both of whom are related parties, shares of SportBLX common stock in exchange for cash and promissory notes (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”). The Stock Purchase Agreement notes payable bear interest at a 5% annual rate and mature on December 12, 2022. The interest under the notes is payable in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter or, at the Company’s option, in shares of common stock of the Company, at a price reflecting market value. Interest of $508,000 due under the agreement is offset due to the termination of a Credit Facility Letter Agreement with Clinton Special Opportunities Fund LLC (“CSO”), a related party. See Note 13 – Related Party Transactions for more information.

The Company had multiple notes payable with Orix PTP Holdings, LLC (“Orix”). Notes payable of $16.0 million issued in March 2020 bear interest at a 5.0% annual rate and mature on September 18, 2021.

On July 21, 2020, pursuant to a loan prepayment and security termination agreement, the Company prepaid the $16 million notes payable to Orix, together with accrued interest of $171,112. The prior Orix notes payable of $13.0 million, which bear interest at a 7.5% annual rate, were assigned from AEC to Adara Asset Management LLC, which, also on July 21, 2020, was sold to GEH Sport LLC, a related party, and, in effect, no longer an obligation of the Company.

Also on July 21, 2020, the Company borrowed $11.0 million from ESW, the proceeds of which were applied, among other things, to finance the transactions referred to in the preceding paragraph and the Company’s purchase of Orix’s shares of AEC, as described below. The loan was due January 20, 2021, with $1,100,000 interest. Also, AEC granted to ESW a security interest in all of AEC’s assets, pursuant to the ESW Loan Agreement, which, in addition to customary representations and warranties and covenants, prohibits AEC from entering into any agreement without ESW’s consent, or, subject to exceptions, incur or prepay any indebtedness, incur any liens, or make distributions on or payments with respect to its shares, and requires AEC to maintain at least $500,000 in cash or cash equivalents in controlled accounts. ESW may accelerate the loan upon a payment default; covenant default, in some cases after notice; a material adverse change in AEC’s business, assets, financial condition, ability to repay the loan, or in the perfection, value, or priority of ESW’s security interests in AEC’s assets; attachment of a material part of AEC’s assets; AEC’s or the Company’s insolvency; AEC’s default in its obligations under other agreements totaling $100,000 or more; AEC’s incurring judgments or settlements totaling $100,000 or more; or a change in AEC’s ownership; or if any material representation by AEC under the ESW Loan Agreement is untrue. The ESW Loan Agreement provides that, in event of AEC’s default other than for a material representation, AEC and ESW will act in good faith to effect a reorganization of AEC in bankruptcy, pursuant to which ESW acquires from the Company all equity in AEC and certain of its assets, and AEC’s cash, shares of its subsidiaries, including Sport-BLX, Inc., and a right to use AEC software and intellectual property in connection with the sports industry are distributed to the Company. 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 any residual funds to be paid to GlassBridge. In connection with the ESW Loan Agreement, pursuant to a Limited Recourse Stock Pledge Agreement, the Company pledged to ESW all of the Company’s AEC stock and 30% of the outstanding stock of SportBLX, and, pursuant to a Subscription Agreement, ESW purchased 100 shares of AEC’s Series A Preferred Stock for a total purchase price of $25,000. Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of AEC, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to a liquidation preference of $1,500 per share and no more. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock vote together with holders of common stock on all matters, and each share of Series A Preferred Stock entitles the holder to one vote.

In January 2021, AEC received notice from ESW that Adara had defaulted on its obligation under the ESW Loan Agreement. On April 22, 2021, AEC filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. As part of AEC’s prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of reorganization, which became effective on June 15, 2021, GlassBridge received a release of its guaranty obligations to ESW.

In connection with the Chapter 11 reorganization, the Company received $325,000 from ESW in the form of a debtor-in-possession loan. The debtor-in-possession loan is included in the bankruptcy estate and not a liability of the Company.

On May 5, 2020, the Company received funds under the Bank Loan from the Bank in the aggregate amount of $374,065, pursuant to the PPP, under Division A, Title I of the CARES Act, which was enacted March 27, 2020. The Bank Loan, which was in the form of a note, dated April 30, 2020, issued to the Bank, matures on April 30, 2022 and bears interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum, payable monthly commencing on November 30, 2020. The note may be prepaid by the Company at any time prior to maturity, with no prepayment penalties. Under the terms of the PPP, certain amounts of the Bank Loan may be forgiven as long as the Company uses the proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities. The Company used the entire Bank Loan amount for qualifying expenses and, on June 30, 2021, received notice that the Bank Loan was forgiven in full.

On June 30, 2020, SportBLX issued an unsecured demand note to CSO in the aggregate principal amount of $150,000 (the “Demand Note-4”). The Demand Note-4 bears interest at an 8% annual rate and matures upon the earlier to occur of (a) demand by CSO, or (b) July 1, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, SportBLX borrowed $150,000 under the Demand Note-4.

The Demand Note-5 bears interest at an 8% annual rate and matures upon the earlier to occur of demand by Mr. De Perio or July 1, 2021.
