THIS SUPPLEMENT to the Master Loan Agreement dated August 21, 2012 (the “MLA”), is entered into as of June 2, 2016 between FARM CREDIT SERVICES OF AMERICA, PCA (“Lead Lender”) and LINCOLNWAY ENERGY, LLC, Nevada, Iowa (the “Company”), and amends and restates the Supplement dated August 31, 2015 and numbered R10218T03B.

 

SECTION 1.          The Revolving Credit Facility.  On the terms and conditions set forth in the MLA and this Supplement, Lead Lender agrees to make loans to the Company during the period set forth below in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2,548,000.00 at any one time outstanding (the “Commitment”).  Within the limits of the Commitment, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow.

 

SECTION 2.          Purpose.  The purpose of the Commitment is to allow the Company to open an irrevocable letter of credit (“Letter of Credit”) for its account.  The Letter of Credit will be issued within a reasonable period of time after Agent’s (as that term is defined in the MLA) receipt of a duly completed and executed copy of Agent’s then current form of Application and Reimbursement Agreement or, if applicable, in accordance with the terms of any CoTrade Agreement between the parties.  Any draw under the Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall be deemed a loan under the Commitment and shall be repaid in accordance with this Supplement.  The Letter of Credit must be in form and content acceptable to Agent and must expire no later than the maturity date of the Commitment.

 

SECTION 3.          Term.  The term of the Commitment shall be from the date hereof, up to and including May 1, 2019, or such later date as Agent may, in its sole discretion, authorize in writing.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Commitment shall be renewed for an additional year only if, on or before the last day of the term (the “Expiration Date”), Agent provides to the Company a written notice of renewal for an additional year (a “Renewal Notice”).  If on or before the Expiration Date, Agent grants a short-term extension of the Commitment, the Commitment shall be renewed for an additional year only if Agent provides to the Company a Renewal Notice on or before such extended expiration date.  All annual renewals shall be measured from, and effective as of, the same day as the Expiration Date in any year.

 

SECTION 4.          Interest.  The Company agrees to pay interest on the unpaid balance of the loan(s) in accordance with the following interest rate:

 

One-Month LIBOR Index Rate.  At a rate (rounded upward to the nearest 1/100th and adjusted for reserves required on “Eurocurrency Liabilities” [as hereinafter defined] for banks subject to “FRB Regulation D” [as hereinafter defined] or required by any other federal law or regulation) per annum equal at all times to 3.15% above the higher of:  (1) zero percent (0.00%); or (2) the rate reported at 11:00 a.m. London time for the offering of one (1)‐month U.S. dollars deposits, by Bloomberg Information Services (or any successor or substitute service providing rate quotations comparable to those currently provided by such service, as determined by Agent from time to time, for the purpose of providing quotations of interest rates applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market) on the first “U.S. Banking Day” (as hereinafter defined) in each week, with such rate to change weekly on such day. The rate shall be reset automatically, without the necessity of notice being provided to the Company or any other party, on the first “U.S. Banking Day” of each succeeding week, and each change in the rate shall be applicable to all balances subject to this option. Information about the then‐current rate shall be made available upon telephonic request. For purposes hereof: (a) “U.S. Banking Day” shall mean a day on which Agent is open for business and banks are open for business in New York, New York; (b) “Eurocurrency Liabilities” shall have the meaning as set forth in “FRB Regulation D”; and (c) “FRB Regulation D” shall mean Regulation D as promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, 12 CFR Part 204, as amended.
