Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Effective July 7, 2017 Manhattan Bridge Capital, Inc. (the “ Company ”) entered into Amendment No. 3 to Credit and Security Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to Guaranty Agreement (the “ Amendment ”) with Webster Business Credit Corporation (“ Webster ”) and Assaf Ran. In conjunction with the execution of the Amendment, the Company also entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note (the “ Note ”) and Amendment No. 3 Fee Letter (the “ Fee Letter ”), each dated July 7, 2017, with Webster.

Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the Company’s existing line of credit with Webster (the “ Webster Credit Line ”) was increased by $1 million to $15 million in the aggregate, with an option, at the discretion of Webster, to increase the Webster Credit Line to an aggregate of $20 million in the aggregate. The term of the Webster Credit Line was extended to February 28, 2021, unless sooner terminated, and contains a provision that permits a Company option for a further extension of the Webster Credit Line until February 28, 2022, subject to Webster’s consent. Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the terms of the personal guaranty provided by Mr. Ran were amended such that the potential sums owed under Mr. Ran’s personal guaranty will not exceed the sum of $500,000 plus any costs relating to the enforcement of the personal guaranty.

In addition, the interest rates relating to the Webster Credit Line were amended such that the interest rates now equal(i) LIBOR plus 3.75% plus the 0.5% Agency Fee (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) a Base Rate (as defined in the Credit and Security Agreement) plus 2.25% plus the 0.5% Agency Fee, as chosen by the Company for each drawdown. Finally, the Amendment provides that the Company shall not permit mortgage loans that are outstanding more than 24 months after their origination date to comprise more than 17.5% of their total portfolio of mortgage loans at any time.

Pursuant to the terms of the Fee Letter, the Company agreed to pay Webster an agency fee equal to 0.5% per annum (the “Agency Fee”) on the actual principal amount of advances outstanding during any month, as well as a $15,000 syndication fee.

The foregoing description of the Amendment, Fee Letter and Note are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the Amendment, Fee Letter and Note, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
