Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 14, 2023, Gladstone Land Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), as guarantor, and Gladstone Land Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership, as borrower (collectively, “Gladstone”), entered into a Second Amendment to Loan Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (“MetLife”) amending the terms of the Loan Agreement, dated February 20, 2020, as amended on February 3, 2022, by and among the Company, the Operating Partnership and MetLife (the “Credit Facility”).

The Amendment extends the maturity date of the Company’s revolving lines of credit under the Credit Facility from April 5, 2024 to December 15, 2033. In connection with the maturity date extension, the Amendment also revised certain covenants, including increasing the Consolidated Net Worth covenant to $400 million. As part of the Amendment, Gladstone paid aggregate fees of approximately $187,500 to MetLife. The Amendment does not change the material terms of the existing Credit Facility and includes customary terms, covenants, events of default and constraints on borrowing availability based on collateral tests for a credit facility of its size and nature.

The foregoing summary of the Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy the Amendment, which will be filed with the Company’s next periodic report, as well as the Credit Facility, which was filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 20, 2020 and the First Amendment to the Credit Facility which was filed as Exhibit 10.15 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2022, and are incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
