Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation.
On March 31, 2019, Guaranty Bancshares, Inc., (“Guaranty”) and Frost Bank extended Guaranty’s right to request and receive monies from Frost Bank on Guaranty’s existing line of credit until March 31, 2020.  On that date, Guaranty executed and delivered to Frost Bank of a Renewal Revolving Promissory Note in the principal amount of $25,000,000 (the “Renewal Note”), and Guaranty and Frost Bank entered into a Second Amendment to Loan Agreement, which amended the Loan Agreement between Guaranty and Frost Bank previously entered into on March 31, 2017, as previously amended on March 31, 2018 (as amended, the “Loan Agreement”).  As of the date of the renewal, Guaranty did not have an outstanding balance on its line of credit. The Renewal Note bears interest at the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal, floating daily, and such interest is due and payable quarterly beginning on July 15, 2019.  Any remaining principal and accrued interest shall be paid on March 31, 2020.  The Renewal Note is not secured and, under the terms of the Loan Agreement, Guaranty has agreed not to pledge or grant a lien or security interest in the stock of Guaranty Bank & Trust, N.A., or in any of its other assets without the prior consent of Frost Bank.  The Renewal Note and Loan Agreement, as amended, are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
