Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 26, 2022, on October 21, 2022 (the “Issue Date”), PARTS iD, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with JGB Collateral, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as collateral agent (the “Agent”) and the several financial institutions or entities that from time to time become parties to the Loan Agreement as lenders (collectively, the “Lender”).

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 6, 2023, PARTS iD, Inc. (the “Company”) notified the Agent and the Lender that it will not be in compliance with the Consolidated Quarterly Net Revenue Covenant (as defined in the Loan Agreement) for the calendar quarter ended December 31, 2022 (the “Subject Default”). As a result of the Subject Default, an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) was triggered under the Loan Agreement and the Company had $5,507,333.33 immediately due and payable under the Loan Agreement, unless a forbearance agreement was reached with the Agent and the Lender.

On January 17, 2023, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement and Reservation of Rights (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with the Agent and the Lender with respect to the Subject Default. The Forbearance Agreement provides that both the Agent and the Lender will not exercise or pursue any rights or remedies under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document (as defined in the Loan Agreement) until the earlier of (i) April 30, 2023 or (ii) that certain date when the Lender or Agent become aware that any Event of Default (other than the Subject Default) has occurred and is continuing, in exchange for certain forbearance payments in the aggregate amount of $50,000 to be paid by the Company to the Lender pursuant to Section 3.3 of the Forbearance Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Forbearance Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Forbearance Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
