Exhibit 10.1
THIS LOAN AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 10, 2019 by and between Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Lender”), and AP-AMH Medical Corporation, a California professional medical corporation (“Borrower”), with reference to the following facts:
A. Borrower was incorporated in California in 2019 for the purpose of purchasing shares of the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”) of Allied Physicians of California, a Professional Medical Corporation, a California corporation doing business as Allied Pacific Corporation (“APC”), for Five Hundred Forty Five Million Dollars ($545,000,000).
B. The rights and preferences of the Preferred Shares are governed by a Certificate of Determination of Preferences of Series A Preferred Stock in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (the “Certificate of Determination”), to be filed on or before the Funding Date (as defined below) with the Secretary of State of the State of California.
C. Lender is willing to loan Five Hundred Forty Five Million Dollars ($545,000,000) to Borrower to purchase the Preferred Shares.
D. Certain defined terms used in this Agreement are set forth on Exhibit A hereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual premises and covenants contained herein and other valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Loan.
1.1 Loan Amount. Lender hereby agrees to make a loan (the “Loan”) to Borrower in the amount of Five Hundred Forty Five Million Dollars ($545,000,000) in cash or equivalent consideration on the Funding Date (as defined below), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Loan will be evidenced by the secured promissory note dated as of the Funding Date (the “Note”) of Borrower in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C.
1.2 Maturity Date. The maturity date of the Loan is the date that is ten (10) years after the Funding Date (the “Maturity Date”).
1.3 Interest. The outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall bear simple interest at rate of ten percent (10%) per annum; provided, however, that the portion of outstanding principal that is the result of any increase in outstanding principal pursuant to Section 1.4 shall bear simple interest at the rate of ten and 75/100 percent (10.75%) per annum.
1.4 Payments. Interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears within three (3) business days after each Series A Dividend Payment Date (as defined in the Certificate of Determination) (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), solely out of Series A Dividends (as defined in the Certificate of Determination) received by Borrower. To the extent that Borrower is unable to make any interest payment due hereunder on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to any Series A Dividend Payment Date because it has received Series A Dividends with respect to such Series A Dividend Payment Date in an amount insufficient (or because it has not received any Series A Dividends on the Series A Dividend Payment Date) to pay in full such interest payment, the then outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall be increased by the amount of any such accrued but unpaid interest. Borrower may not prepay any principal amount of the Loan prior to the Maturity Date without the written consent of Lender; provided, however, that Borrower shall apply any Series A Dividends that are received after any Interest Payment Date corresponding to the immediately preceding Series A Dividend Payment Date to prepay the principal amount of the Loan in the amount equal to the portion of any such scheduled interest payment that was not paid as scheduled and was added to the principal amount of the Loan.
1.5 Security Interest. On Funding Date, Lender and Borrower shall enter into the Security Agreement in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit D, pursuant to which Borrower has granted a first priority security interest in all of its assets (including the Preferred Shares) to secure payment of its obligations under the Loan Documents.
1.6 Funding; Termination. Lender’s obligation to fund the Loan is subject to the fulfillment, to the satisfaction of Lender, of each of the conditions precedent set forth on Exhibit E. If for any reason the Funding Date has not occurred on or before the Termination Date, or if the Series A Preferred Shares Purchase Agreement or the Apollo Stock Purchase Agreement is terminated, Lender may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Borrower.
