Item 1.01

Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On September 13, 2021, AutoWeb, Inc. (“Company”) entered into a Third Amendment to Loan, Security and Guarantee Agreement (“Credit Facility Third Amendment”) with CIT Northbridge Credit LLC (“CNC”), to amend the Company’s existing Loan, Security and Guarantee Agreement with CNC initially entered into on March 26, 2020, as amended on May 18, 2020, and further amended on July 30, 2021 (the existing Loan Agreement, as amended to date, is referred to herein collectively as the “Credit Facility Agreement”). The Credit Facility Third Amendment provides for, among other changes to the Credit Facility Agreement, a change in the available borrowing base calculation for the acquisition of used motor vehicle inventory by Tradein Expert, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Company (“Tradein Expert”), from up to (A) the lesser of (i) $3,000,000.00 and (ii) 85% of the value of eligible accounts receivable arising from the sale of used motor vehicles by Tradein Expert to (B) the lesser of (i) $3,000,000 and (ii) eighty percent (80%) of the purchase price (subject to certain limitations set forth in the Credit Facility Third Amendment) for eligible vehicles (as defined in the Credit Facility Third Amendment) in Tradein Expert’s used motor vehicle inventory. The Credit Facility Third Amendment also reduces the minimum borrowing usage requirement from fifty percent (50%) to forty percent (40%) of the aggregate revolver amount, which is a minimum borrowing usage requirement reduction from $10,000,000 to $8,000,000.

    

The foregoing description of the Credit Facility Agreement and Credit Facility Third Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Loan, Security and Guarantee Agreement dated as of March 26, 2020, by and between the Company and CIT Northbridge Credit LLC, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 10. 1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020 (SEC File No. 001-34761), as amended by the First Amendment to Loan, Security and Guarantee Agreement dated as of May 18, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 10. 1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 19, 2020 (SEC File No. 001-34761), the Second Amendment to and Consent Under Loan, Security and Guarantee Agreement dated as of July 30, 2021, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 10. 1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 2, 2021 (SEC File No. 001-34761), and the Third Amendment to Loan, Security and Guarantee Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is hereby incorporated by reference.
