Item 2.01.
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

Reference is made to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among JG Holdco LLC, as parent and a guarantor (“Justice Cannabis Co.”), certain subsidiaries of Justice Cannabis Co., as borrowers (collectively, the “Borrowers”), the other guarantors from time to time party thereto, AFC Gamma, Inc. (the “Company”), as a lender, A BDC Warehouse, LLC (the “Warehouse”), as a lender and as documentation agent, AFC Management, LLC (“AFCM”), as agent for the lenders under the Credit Agreement (in such capacity, the “Agent”), and the other lenders from time to time party thereto. The Warehouse is an entity beneficially owned by Leonard M. Tannenbaum, a director of the Company and its Chief Executive Officer, and Robyn Tannenbaum, the Company’s Managing Director, Head of Origination and Investor Relations. AFCM is the external manager of the Company and is beneficially owned by Mr. Tannenbaum, Mrs. Tannenbaum, other members of the Tannenbaum family and Jonathan Kalikow, a director of the Company and its Head of Real Estate.

On September 30, 2021, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement with the Warehouse, the Borrowers and the Agent, which increased the Borrowers’ existing senior secured credit facility, from $22.0 million to $75.4 million in total commitments (the “Expanded Credit Facility”). Under the Expanded Credit Facility, the Company’s total loan commitments to the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement increased to an aggregate principal amount of $65.4 million, among three tranches. The remaining $10.0 million was syndicated to the Warehouse, an affiliate of the Company. The Expanded Credit Facility is secured by a first-lien mortgage on the Borrowers’ owned real-estate in New Jersey and Pennsylvania and other commercial-security interests of the Borrowers.
