Table of Contents UBS AG, Stamford Branch, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Credit Suisse AG, New York Branch, affiliates of the underwriters in this offering, have provided a line of credit of up to $500 million to Adam Neumann, of which approximately $380 million principal amount was outstanding as of July 31, 2019. The line of credit is secured under a security and pledge agreement by a pledge of approximately shares of our Class B common stock beneficially owned by Adam and held through WE Holdings LLC, of which Adam serves as a managing member. The line of credit has a scheduled maturity of September 18, 2020 and may be extended from time to time at the discretion of the lenders. The lenders have received and will receive customary fees and expense reimbursements in connection with the loan. In the case of nonpayment at maturity or another event of default (including but not limited to the borrower’s inability to satisfy a margin call, which must be instituted by the lenders following certain declines in our stock price), the lenders may exercise their rights under the loan agreement to foreclose on and sell the amount of shares of our Class A common stock into which the shares of Class B common stock pledged by Adam and WE Holdings LLC would be converted upon transfer, provided that no sales of the pledged shares may be made to third parties until after 180 days following the final prospectus relating to this offering. In addition, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A, an affiliate of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, has made loans and extended credit to Adam Neumann totaling $97.5 million across a variety of lending products, including mortgages secured by personal property and unsecured credit lines and letters of credit. The terms of the loans and other credit products described above were negotiated directly between the lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and, where applicable, certain other financial institutions thereto, and Adam Neumann. We are not party to the loan agreement, the security and pledge agreements or other credit products. As a regulated entity, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. makes decisions regarding making and managing its loans independent of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC. The lock-up agreement between the underwriters and Adam includes an exception to allow for the transfer of shares of our common stock beneficially held by WE Holdings LLC to the lenders in connection with the exercise of their rights under the security and pledge agreement; provided that any pledged shares acquired from WE Holdings LLC upon foreclosure during the 180 days following the final prospectus relating to this offering will not be sold until the expiration of such 180-day period, and the lenders have agreed that they will not take any action in contravention of such lock-up agreement. Certain of the underwriters and their affiliates have memberships at our locations and from time to time utilize our other offerings.
