Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 1, 2019, FlexShopper 2, LLC (the “Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of FlexShopper, Inc. (the “Company”), received notice from WE2014-1, LLC, the lender (the “Lender”) under that certain Credit Agreement, dated March 6, 2015, by and among the Borrower, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as paying agent, and various lenders from time to time party thereto (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), that the Lender has elected to extend the Commitment Termination Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from June 30, 2019 to February 28, 2021.

 

Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

Effective April 3, 2019, Daniel Ballen resigned from his position as a director of the Company. Mr. Ballen was appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors pursuant to an Investor Rights Agreement, dated June 10, 2016 (the “Investor Rights Agreement”), by and between the Company and B2 FIE V LLC (the “Investor”), an entity affiliated with Pacific Investment Management Company LLC. In light of the Investor’s current ownership percentage of the Company’s outstanding common stock (on a fully-diluted basis, as determined in accordance with the Investor Rights Agreement), the number of directors which the Investor has the right to nominate to the Company’s Board of Directors has decreased from two to one.

 

Mr. Ballen’s resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter related to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

 

Mr. Ballen had been nominated for re-election as a director at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 2, 2019 (the “Annual Meeting”); however, in connection with his resignation as a director of the Company, Mr. Ballen has also confirmed that he will not stand for re-election. The Company’s Board of Directors does not currently expect to nominate a substitute nominee for election at the Annual Meeting.
