Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 21, 2017, the Lease Amending Agreement Surrender Agreement (“Surrender Agreement”) entered into by Learning Tree International Inc. (“Learning Tree Canada”), the Canadian subsidiary of Learning Tree International, Inc., a Delaware corporation and parent company (“Learning Tree”), and T.E.C. Leaseholds Limited (“Landlord”) became effective, which provided for the amendment and early termination of Learning Tree Canada ’s lease agreement, dated March 6, 2000, as amended (“Lease Agreement”) for its Education Center located in Toronto, Ontario. The Surrender Agreement provides for the early termination of the Lease Agreement to occur on March 31, 2018. A summary of the key provisions of the Surrender Agreement is as follows:
● |
The Surrender Agreement was conditional upon the Landlord entering into a new lease for the premises no later than December 22, 2017. This condition was for the sole benefit of the Landlord and was satisfied by written notification to Learning Tree Canada on December 21, 2017; |
● |
The lease term for the 17,207 square feet facility now expires on March 31, 2018, instead of the original expiration date of October 31, 2020; and |
● |
As consideration for the early termination of the Lease Agreement, Learning Tree Canada paid a one-time fee to the Landlord equal to approximately two months ’ rent or CDN$129,302. |
The foregoing summary of the Surrender Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Surrender Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The early termination of this lease continues Learning Tree ’s cost reduction program to eliminate excess real estate costs by allowing Learning Tree Canada to find a location in Toronto more suitable in size for its current needs.
