Item 2.03 Creation of Direct Financial Obligations

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities

 

Forbearance Agreement

 

Dreams, Inc.’s (the “Company) credit facility with Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services (“MLBFS”), which as of December 31, 2004, had an outstanding balance of approximately $5.3 million, expired by its terms on November 30, 2004. MLBFS advised the Company that it did not intend to renew the line of credit facility. The Company on December 31, 2004 entered into a Forbearance Agreement with MLBFS pursuant to which MLBFS agreed to forbear from the exercise of its rights and remedies under its line of credit facility to permit the Company to pay the outstanding obligations over a period of time ending April 29, 2005, provided that the Company repays $1 million of outstanding indebtedness to MLBFS by March 31, 2005. On March 11, 2005, MLBFS agreed to extend the initial repayment date to April 15, 2005 provided that Company agrees to pay MLBFS a $50,000 exit fee if the Company fails to repay its outstanding obligations by April 29, 2005.

 

Unitas Litigation

 

The Company was a defendant in an action in United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland in an action brought by Unitas Management, Inc. Unitas Management, Inc. has brought a claim against us for damages of up to $419,000 based upon an alleged breach of contract. On January 10, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court granted Unitas Management, Inc.’s Motion for Summary Judgment and entered a judgment for Unitas Management, Inc. for approximately $435,000. The Company is formerly appealing a judgment and it is unable to predict the results of such appeal. In order to secure the bond necessary to stay the judgment pending our appeal, the Company has provided $440,000 to the Bankruptcy Court as substitute collateral for the appeal bond.

 

In order to fund the substitute collateral, on February 16, 2005 the Company issued subordinated convertible promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $440,000. The notes include notes issued to our President and Chief Executive Officer, and his brother-in-law and father-in-law, in the amounts of $121,080, $125,000 and $100,000, respectively. This note provides for interest at the rate of 12% per annum and are due on (i) December 31, 2005, if the bond is either released or drawn upon prior to December 31, 2005, or (ii) the date that is ten (10) business days after the bond is released if the bond is released on or after December 31, 2005, or (iii) the date that is forty-five (45) business days after the bond is drawn upon if the bond is drawn upon on or after December 31, 2005. Each noteholder is entitled to an origination fee of the 10% original principal amount of the note. Such amount shall be paid no later than the earlier to occur of the maturity date of the note and December 31, 2005. The notes are convertible any time at (i) the average closing sales price for a share of Company common stock from three (3) trading days prior to conversion or (ii) in the event the Company sells or issues common stock or other convertible securities after February 16, 2005 (including any shares issued in connection with the Company’s proposed rights offering) at the lowest issue or conversion price per share of such securities as applicable.

Re: Amendment to Loan Documents

 

Ladies & Gentlemen:

 

This Letter Agreement will serve to confirm certain agreements of Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services Inc. (“MLBFS”), Dreams Products, Inc. (“Customer”), Dreams, Inc. (“Dreams”), and Dreams Franchise Corporation (“Franchise”) with respect to: (I) that certain FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT dated as of December 30, 2004 between MLBFS on the one hand, and Customer, Dreams and Franchise (collectively, Customer, Dreams and Franchise, the “Obligors” or the “Parties”) on the other hand (including any previous amendments and extensions thereof), and (ii) all other agreements between MLBFS and Obligors including without limitation the Loan Documents. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Forbearance Agreement, or if not defined in the Forbearance Agreement, the Loan Documents.

 

Subject to the last sentence of this Letter Agreement, effective as of today, the Loan Documents are hereby amended as follows:

 

(a) Section 4(e)(i) of the Forbearance Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: The term “Maximum WCMA Line of Credit” shall mean, (i) as of the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined) through and including the calendar day immediately preceding the “Change Date” (as hereinafter defined), $4,500,000.00 and (iii) effective the Change Date through April 29, 2005, $3,500,000.00. For purposes hereof, the term “Change Date” shall mean the earlier to occur of (a) the date of the closing of any transaction involving the sale of $2,200,000.00, or any other sum, in equity by the Customer or any Obligor through a “rights offering” or any other equity offering consummated by Customer or any Obligor (the “Rights Offering”), or (b) April 15, 2005. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT IT WILL, WITHOUT DEMAND, INVOICING OR THE REQUEST OF MLBFS, FROM TIME TO TIME MAKE SUFFICIENT PAYMENTS ON ACCOUNT OF THE WCMA LOAN BALANCE TO ASSURE THAT THE WCMA LOAN BALANCE WILL NOT AT ANY TIME EXCEED THE MAXIMUM WCMA LINE OF CREDIT, AS REDUCED EACH MONTH PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION IN THE AMOUNTS SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION.

 

(b) Obligors hereby agree to pay to MLBFS, the sum of $50,000.00 (“Exit Fee”) if the Obligations under the Forbearance Agreement and Loan Documents are not fully repaid by April 29, 2005. The Exit Fee shall be in addition to all other charges under the Forbearance Agreement and Loan Documents, and shall become a WCMA Loan, due immediately and added to the WCMA Loan Balance in the same manner as provided for accrued interest with respect to the WCMA Line of Credit.

 

By their execution of this Letter Agreement, the Obligors hereby consent to the foregoing modifications to the Forbearance Agreement, and hereby agree that except as expressly amended hereby, the Forbearance Agreement and Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect upon all of their terms and conditions.

 

Obligors acknowledge, warrant and agree, as a primary inducement to MLBFS to enter into this Agreement, that: (a) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Forbearance Agreement or Loan Documents, other than the Defaults or Events of Defaults referenced in the Forbearance Agreement; (b) each of the warranties of Obligors in the Forbearance Agreement and Loan Documents are true and correct as of the date hereof and shall be deemed remade as of the date hereof; (c) no Obligor has any claim against MLBFS or any of its affiliates arising out of or in connection with the Forbearance Agreement or Loan Documents or any other matter whatsoever; and (d) no Obligor has any defense to payment of any amounts owing, or any right of counterclaim for any reason under, the Forbearance Agreement or Loan Documents.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, if each Obligor does not execute and return the duplicate copy of this Letter Agreement to MLBFS by 5PM CST March 11, 2005, then all of said amendments and agreements will, at the sole option of MLBFS, be void.

 

Very truly yours,
