Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On January 22, 2024, Mill City Ventures III, Ltd. (“Mill City”), Eastman Investments, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Eastman”), and Lyle A. Berman, as trustee of the Lyle A. Berman Revocable Trust (the “Trust,” and referred to collectively with Eastman as the “Lenders”), terminated the Loan and Security Agreement that the parties had entered into on January 3, 2022 (the “Loan and Security Agreement”). Mill City determined to terminate the Loan and Security Agreement due to the fact that it does not anticipate requiring the liquidity provided under that agreement in the near future.

 

Mill City had earlier satisfied all of its payment obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement, and the termination was deemed effective as of January 1, 2024.

 

Lyle A. Berman, trustee of the Trust, is a director of Mill City.
