Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 28, 2016, Princeton Capital Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a loan agreement and related security agreement (collectively, the “Loan Agreement”) with Munish Sood in the amount of $390,000. Mr. Sood is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company. The board of directors of the Company, by unanimous written consent, authorized and approved that the Company enter into the Loan Agreement.
Under the Loan Agreement, Mr. Sood agreed to extend a term loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to $390,000, the proceeds of which were used solely by the Company to make a deposit in connection with the purchase on margin of approximately $43,000,000 in U.S. treasury bills by the Company on or before June 30, 2016 in order for the Company to take proactive steps to ensure its compliance with the regulated investment company (“RIC”) diversification requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The U.S. treasury bills will be sold on July 7, 2016 and the loan will be repaid in full together with interest at an annualized rate of 10% per annum on July 8, 2016. While the Company from time to time has borrowed funds in due course in order to maintain its RIC status (and Mr. Sood has previously participated in a similar loan which was principally funded by a non-officer/director), this time the lender was solely Mr. Sood, a director and officer of the Company.
