Information to be included in the report

 
Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
MMA Mortgage Investment Corporation ("MMIC"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Municipal Mortgage & Equity, LLC (the "Company"), entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement effective as of November 16, 2005 between U.S. Bank National Association ("U.S. Bank") and MMIC (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement provides for revolving loans to MMIC to finance specified types of mortgage loans and investments in an amount of up to $110 million through December 31, 2005 and up to $75 million thereafter, subject to sub-limits for particular classifications of borrowings. The loans have varying maturities, but all loans mature not later than September 29, 2006. Depending on the type of borrowing, loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at either a fixed rate or a floating rate based on either U.S. Bank's prime rate or the one-month LIBOR rate, plus a spread. The loans are secured by a first priority lien on specified mortgage loans and investments financed under the Credit Agreement and certain servicing rights. The Credit Agreement requires MMIC to maintain a minimum specified servicing portfolio, a minimum adjusted tangible net worth and a minimum ratio of earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization less non-cash revenues to mandatory principal payments of indebtedness plus interest expense. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default including, among others, failure to pay principal or interest, breach of representations, warranties or covenants, insolvency or dissolution of MMIC and acceleration of certain other indebtedness. Upon the occurrence of such events, the obligation to repay outstanding principal and accrued interest may be accelerated.
