Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On September 21, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), FAT Brands Inc. (the “Company”) completed the issuance and sale in a private offering of $40.0 million in principal amount of Series 2020-2 9.75% Fixed Rate Subordinated Secured Notes, Class M-2 (the “Class M-2 Notes”) through the Company’s whole business securitization facility established under its special purpose subsidiary, FAT Brands Royalty I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Issuer”). The Class M-2 Notes were issued pursuant to the Base Indenture, dated as of March 6, 2020 (the “Base Indenture”), as amended by the Series 2020-2 Supplement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Series 2020-2 Supplement”), by and among the Company and UMB Bank, N.A., as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), and Supplement Number One, by and among the Company and the Trustee (“Supplement One”).

 

Scheduled payments of interest on the Class M-2 Notes are required to be made on a quarterly basis commencing in October 2020 and principal on a quarterly basis commencing in July 2021, in each case from amounts that are available for payment thereon under the Base Indenture. The legal final maturity date of the Class M-2 Notes is April 27, 2026. If the Issuer has not repaid or refinanced the Class M-2 Notes prior to April 2026, additional interest will accrue thereon in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 5.00% per annum and (ii) a per annum interest rate equal to the amount, if any, by which the sum of the following exceeds the original interest rate on the Class M-2 Notes: (x) the yield to maturity (adjusted to a quarterly bond-equivalent basis) on the Class M-2 anticipated repayment date of the United States Treasury security having a term closest to 5 years plus (y) 5.0%, plus (z) 9.48%.

 

The Class M-2 Notes are subordinated to the Class A-2 Notes and Class B-2 Notes issued by the Issuer in March 2020. All Notes issued under the Base Indenture, including the Class M-2 Notes, are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Issuer, including the Johnny Rockets companies contributed to the Issuer on the Closing Date (discussed further in Item 2.01 below), and are obligations only of the Issuer under the Base Indenture and not obligations of the Company.

 

The Class M-2 Notes are subject to customary rapid amortization events provided for in the Base Indenture, including events tied to failure to maintain stated debt service coverage ratios, the sum of system wide retail sales for all stores being below certain levels, certain manager termination events, an event of default and the failure to repay or refinance the Class M-2 Notes on the scheduled maturity date. Rapid amortization events may be cured in certain circumstances, upon which cure, regular amortization will resume. The Class M-2 Notes are also subject to certain customary events of default, including events relating to non-payment of required interest, principal or other amounts due on or with respect to the Class M-2 Notes, failure to comply with covenants within certain time frames, certain bankruptcy events, breaches of specified representations and warranties, failure of security interests to be effective and certain judgments.

 

The foregoing summary of the issuance of Class M-2 Notes does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the complete copies of the Base Indenture, Series 2020-2 Supplement (including the form of Class M-2 Notes), and Supplement One, copies of which are filed or incorporated herein by reference.

 

 
 

 

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On the Closing Date, the Company completed its previously announced purchase of the Johnny Rockets branded restaurants and franchising business through the acquisition of Johnny Rockets Holding Co., a Delaware corporation (“Johnny Rockets”), from Sundae Group Holdings I, LLC pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated August 12, 2020.

 

Upon the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, on September 21, 2020 the Company purchased all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Johnny Rockets for a purchase price of approximately $24.6 million (as adjusted and paid pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement), which was paid from the proceeds of the sale of Class M-2 Notes. The purchase price was subject to certain adjustments, including with respect to net working capital, Johnny Rockets’ cash on hand, tax liabilities and outstanding indebtedness as of the closing and certain transaction expenses payable at closing, all of which were estimated at closing and will be finalized no later than no later than 75 days after the closing. 

 

Immediately following the closing of the acquisition of Johnny Rockets, the Company contributed to the Issuer the restaurant franchising business of Johnny Rockets through the contribution of Johnny Rockets Licensing, LLC and Johnny Rockets Licensing Canada, LLC to the Issuer pursuant to a Contribution Agreement. These companies also entered into a joinder to the existing Management Agreement, dated March 6, 2020, by and among the Company and the Issuer, pursuant to which the Company acts as manager of the Issuer and performs certain franchising, distribution, intellectual property and operational functions on behalf of the Issuer’s various restaurant franchising subsidiaries. The Management Agreement provides for a management fee payable monthly by the Issuer to the Company in the amount of $200,000, subject to three percent (3%) annual increases.

In addition, the Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Notes are subject to mandatory prepayment as provided for in the Indenture. As described above, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Legal Final Maturity Date. All payments of principal of the Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Notes will be made pro rata to the Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholders entitled thereto.

 

Principal of and interest on this Note which is payable on a Quarterly Payment Date, Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Note Prepayment Date, or on any date on which payments are permitted to be made as provided for in the Indenture shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date or Prepayment Record Date, as the case may be.

Exhibits to Series 2020-2 Supplement

 

Amounts payable in respect of this Note shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by DTC or its nominee.

 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the Issuer and the Note Registrar duly executed by, the Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholder hereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in the Security Transfer Agent Medallion Program (“STAMP”) or such other “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and accompanied by such other documents as the Trustee and the Note Registrar may require and as may be required by the Series 2020-2 Supplement, and thereupon one or more new Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Notes of authorized denominations in the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be charged for any registration of transfer or exchange of this Note, but the transferor may be required to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any such registration of transfer or exchange.

 

Each Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholder, by acceptance of a Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Note, covenants and agrees by accepting the benefits of the Indenture that prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing note issued under the Indenture, such Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholder will not institute against, or join with any other Person in instituting against, any Securitization Entity any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings, under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law; provided, however, that nothing herein shall constitute a waiver of any right to indemnification, reimbursement or other payment from the Securitization Entities pursuant to the Indenture or any other Transaction Document.

 

It is the intent of the Issuer and each Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholder that, for federal, state, local income and franchise tax purposes only, the Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Notes will evidence indebtedness of the Issuer secured by the Collateral. Each Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholder, by the acceptance of this Note, agrees to treat this Note (or beneficial interests herein) for all purposes of federal, state, local income or franchise taxes and any other tax imposed on or measured by income, as indebtedness of the Issuer or, if the Issuer is treated as a division of another entity, such other entity.

 

The Indenture permits certain amendments to be made thereto without the consent of the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative or any Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholders, provided that certain conditions precedent are satisfied. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholders under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer with the consent of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) and without the consent of any Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholders. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences without the consent of any Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholders. Any such consent or waiver of this Note (or any one or more predecessor Notes) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholder and upon all future Series 2020-2 Class M-2 Noteholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
