On March 12, 2020 Inuvo, Inc. closed a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) dated February 28, 2020 by and between our company and our subsidiaries and Hitachi Capital America Corp. (“Hitachi”). Under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement Hitachi has provided us with a $5,000,000 line of credit commitment. We are permitted to borrow (i) 90% of the aggregate Eligible Accounts Receivable, plus (i) the lesser of 75% of the aggregate Unbilled Accounts Receivable (as those terms are defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) or 50% of the amount available to borrow under (i), up to the maximum credit commitment. On March 12, 2020 we drew $5,000,000 under this agreement, using $2,959,573 of these proceeds to satisfy our obligations to Western Alliance Bank under our credit agreement with it and the balance is being used for working capital. Following the satisfaction of our obligations to Western Alliance Bank, all agreements with that entity have been terminated.
We will pay Hitachi monthly interest at the rate of 2% in excess of the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate, with a minimum rate of 6.75% per annum, on outstanding amounts. The principal and all accrued but unpaid interest are due on demand. In the event of a default under the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, the interest rate increases to 6% greater than the interest rate in effect from time to time prior to a default. The Loan and Security Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants to which we are also subject.
We agreed to pay Hitachi a commitment fee of $50,000, with one half due upon the execution of the agreement and the balance due six months thereafter. Thereafter, we are obligated to pay Hitachi a commitment fee of $15,000 annually. We are also obligated to pay Hitachi a quarterly service fee of 0.30% on the monthly unused amount of the maximum credit line. In addition to a $2,000 document fee we have paid to Hitachi, if we should repay the amounts due under the Loan and Security Agreement before March 1, 2022, we are obligated to pay Hitachi an exit fee of $50,000.
The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the Loan and Security Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report.
