The Company had previously extended credit to FCCG pursuant to a certain Intercompany Promissory Note (the “Original Note”), dated October 20, 2017, with an initial principal balance of $11,906,000. Subsequent to the issuance of the Original Note, the Company and certain of its direct or indirect subsidiaries made additional intercompany advances in the aggregate amount of $10,523,000. Pursuant to the Intercompany Agreement, the revolving credit facility bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum, has a five-year term with no prepayment penalties, and has a maximum capacity of $35,000,000. All additional borrowings under the Intercompany Agreement are subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, in advance, on a quarterly basis and may be subject to other conditions as set forth by the Company. The initial balance under the Intercompany Agreement totaled $21,067,000 including the balance of the Original Note, borrowings subsequent to the Original Note, accrued and unpaid interest income, and other adjustments through December 29, 2019. As of March 29, 2020, the balance receivable under the Intercompany Agreement was $26,854,000.

During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020, the Company recorded a receivable from FCCG in the amount of $121,000 under the Tax Sharing Agreement, which was added to the intercompany receivable. During the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded a receivable from FCCG in the amount of $467,000 under the Tax Sharing Agreement. (See Note 8).

Effective July 5, 2018, the Company made a preferred capital investment in Homestyle Dining LLC, a Delaware limited liability corporation (“HSD”) in the amount of $4.0 million (the “Preferred Interest”). FCCG owns all of the common interests in HSD. The holder of the Preferred Interest is entitled to a 15% priority return on the outstanding balance of the investment (the “Preferred Return”). Any available cash flows from HSD on a quarterly basis are to be distributed to pay the accrued Preferred Return and repay the Preferred Interest until fully retired. On or before the five-year anniversary of the investment, the Preferred Interest is to be fully repaid, together with all previously accrued but unpaid Preferred Return. FCCG has unconditionally guaranteed repayment of the Preferred Interest in the event HSD fails to do so.
