On July 9, 2012, Odyssey Marine Exploration, Inc. entered into a project term loan agreement with Fifth Third Bank that provides a credit facility of up to $10.0 million. The facility will mature on January 31, 2013. The term loan bears interest at a floating rate equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus 500 basis points. Odyssey may make prepayments in whole or in part without premium or penalty. An origination fee of $50,000 was payable at closing. A restricted cash deposit of $500,000 would be required to cover any potential interest payments if the full amount of the term loan is advanced.
The term loan will be secured by approximately $15.0 million worth of silver recovered from either the SS Gairsoppa or the SS Mantola shipwreck projects. The Company is required to comply with a number of customary covenants. Advances against the term loan of $5.0 million can be requested when at least $10.0 million worth of silver has been recovered, and a second advance of $5.0 million can be requested when at least $15.0 million worth of silver in total is delivered to the port of entry. The proceeds of the credit facility will be used to fund the project recovery costs. The Company took a $10 million draw against the facility on July 17, 2012.
