ITEM 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Pursuant to a Pledge Agreement dated as of March 31, 1999 between Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association (the “Lender”) and the co-executors of the Estate, solely in their capacities as co-executors, the Estate pledged 3,085,000 of its shares of Common Stock to secure its obligations under the Loan Agreement dated as of March 31, 1999 between the Lender and the Co-executors, solely in their capacities as co-executors. The Loan Agreement pertains to borrowings of $13,500,000, the proceeds of which were used primarily to pay estate taxes.
On March 6, 2000, the Lender notified the Estate that it was in default under the Loan Agreement because the decline in market value of the Common Stock pledged as collateral for the Loan Agreement had caused the Estate to have insufficient collateral for the loan. Copies of the Loan Agreement and the related Pledge Agreement were filed as exhibits to the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Person on December 16, 1999 and are incorporated herein by reference. On March 21, 2000, the Estate paid in full all obligations under the Loan Agreement, using the funds made available under the Credit Agreement described in the following paragraph.
On March 21, 2000, the Estate borrowed $13,500,000 from Harris Trust and Savings Bank and SunTrust Bank under a Credit Agreement of that date. The entire proceeds were used to pay off the Estate’s loan from Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association. The loan under the Credit Agreement is secured by the Estate’s pledge of all of the shares of Common Stock of the Company owned by the Estate. The new loan requires that the ratio of the principal amount of the loan, divided by the market value of the pledged Common Stock, not exceed 60%. In making this calculation, the value of the pledged Common Stock is its market value, except that if the market value is less than $5.00 per share the Common Stock is deemed to have no collateral value. In addition, in
5
| CUSIP No. 800013 | Page 6 of 7 |
making this calculation the principal amount of the loan is reduced by any cash collateral held by the banks, and also by the principal amount of any guaranty of the loan that the Company may decide to provide to the banks. The Bank of America loan did not make provision for a guaranty by the Company. If a guaranty is provided by the Company, it will be released at the request of the Estate or the Company if, on the last day of any calendar quarter, the abovementioned ratio is 50% or less. The Estate has agreed to indemnify the Company against any loss from any such guaranty. Upon payment in full of the banks, the Company would succeed to the banks position as pledgee of the Common Stock, and the shares would secure the Estate’s obligations to the Company.
On March 30, 2001, the Estate entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Term Notes between the Estate and the Banks. This amendment, among other things, provides for an extension of the first principal payment date from April 1, 2001 to April 1, 2002, and provides for the addition of certain real estate owned by the Estate as additional security for the loan. Pursuant to this amendment, the principal amount of the loan will be repaid in 16 consecutive quarterly installments beginning April 1, 2002, rather than 20 installments beginning April 1, 2000 as previously provided.
On July 6, 2001, the Estate entered into a Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Term Notes between the Estate and the Banks. This amendment, among other things, provides for the release of certain real estate interests owned by the Estate and held by the Banks as security for the Notes. Subsequent to this Amendment, on July 30, 2001, the Estate requested and received a waiver from the Banks allowing the Estate to distribute the Estate’s real estate interests to the beneficiaries of the Estate, which distribution was made on July 30, 2001.
On May 13, 2002, the Estate entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Term Notes between the Estate and the Banks. This Amendment, among other things, provides for the release of 400,000 shares of Sanderson Farms, Inc. as security for the Notes, waives certain financial covenants to allow the distribution of such stock to the primary beneficiaries of the Estate under the will of Joe Frank Sanderson, deceased, removes the requirement that the Estate provide annual audited financial statements to the Banks, and waives the past failure to provide audited financial statements to the Banks.
On January 3, 2002, the co-executors of the Estate entered into a stock purchase agreement, which is incorporated by reference herein (see Item 7, below) with the Company pursuant to which the Company acquired 320,000 shares of Common Stock from the Estate pursuant to the Company’s stock repurchase program, at a price of $20.42 per share.
On September 12, 2003, the Estate obtained a waiver from the minimum net worth requirement contained in the Credit Agreement to the extent necessary to permit the Estate to distribute up to 7,000 shares of the Common Stock of Sanderson Farms, Inc. to its legatees in accordance with the Last Will of Joe Frank Sanderson, deceased.
On November 7, 2003, the Estate entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement between the Estate and the Banks. This amendment increased the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of Sanderson Farms, Inc. permitted for distribution by the Estate. The Estate also obtained a waiver from the minimum net worth requirement contained in the Credit Agreement to the extent necessary to permit the Estate to distribute up to 400,000 shares of the Common Stock of Sanderson Farms, Inc. to its primary beneficiaries in accordance with the Last Will of Joe Frank Sanderson, deceased.
