Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On May 17, 2018, Dlorah, Inc. (“Dlorah”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of National American University Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), and the Company jointly and severally issued to Black Hills Community Bank, N.A. (“Black Hills Community Bank”) a promissory note in the principal amount of $8,000,000 (the “Note”), which is secured by a mortgage granted by Dlorah to Black Hills Community Bank on certain real property located in Pennington County, State of South Dakota, pursuant to a collateral real estate mortgage (the “Mortgage”, and together with the Note, the “Loan Agreements”) entered into between Dlorah and Black Hills Community Bank on the same date as the Note, and certain related rents, as well as a security interest in certain deposit accounts.
 
The Loan Agreements provide for an $8,000,000 five-year term loan (the “Loan”). The Loan carries a fixed interest rate of 4.0000% (the “Interest Rate”) and is payable as follows: beginning June 17, 2018, 59 monthly consecutive interest-only payments based on the unpaid principal balance of the Loan at the Interest Rate; beginning May 17, 2019, four consecutive annual principal payments of $800,000 each, during which interest will continue to accrue on the unpaid principal balance of the Loan at the Interest Rate; and on May 17, 2023, one payment of the principal balance and accrued interest of the Loan in the amount of $4,816,000. The Company and Dlorah may prepay the Loan at any time without penalty unless the Note is refinanced with proceeds derived from another lender, in which case Black Hills Community Bank will be entitled to a prepayment penalty of 1%. The Loan Agreements also contain various affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants and events of default. Proceeds from the Agreements will be used to augment the Company’s cash position to support the Company’s pursuit of growth opportunities.
