NOTE 5  DEBT OBLIGATIONS

On April 14, 2020, the Company issued a promissory note to KeyBank in the aggregate principal amount of $3.5 million (the “Note”) as an extension of its line of credit, replacing its then current line of credit agreement.    The $3.5 million Note is in the form of a variable rate non-disclosable revolving line of credit with an interest rate of Prime Rate announced by the Bank minus 0.75%.  Interest is due monthly, and all principal and unpaid interest is due on June 1, 2021.  The $3.5 million Note may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties.  The $3.5 million Note contains events of default and other provisions customary for a loan of this type.  

In connection with the Note, the Company entered into a Commercial Security Agreement with the Bank dated April 14, 2020 (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company granted a security interest in substantially all assets of the Company to secure the obligations of the Company under the Note.  The Security Agreement contains terms and conditions typical for the granting of security interests of this kind.

The Company had no amount outstanding against the line of credit as of March 31, 2021.

On April 27, 2020, the Company entered into a Progress Payment Loan and Security Agreement (“PPLSA”) and a Master Security Agreement (the “MSA”), each dated as of April 20, 2020, with Key Equipment Finance, a division of the Bank (“KEF”), to provide up to $2.5 million in financing for equipment purchases from third party vendors.  The PPLSA allows the Company to make draws with KEF to make certain payments to the equipment suppliers prior to the commencement of periodic payments under a term loan. Each draw under the PPLSA will bear interest at a variable rate equal to the then-current Prime Rate and will be secured by the financed equipment under the MSA.  At the end of each calendar quarter or year, the advances made under the PPLSA will be converted to term loans, subject to KEF’s approval of the equipment and certain other closing conditions being met.  Once the draws under the PPLSA are converted into a term loan, each promissory note will bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.07% per annum, subject to adjustment based on KEF’s cost of funds, with principal and interest payable in 84 equal consecutive monthly installments.  Each fixed rate installment promissory note may be prepaid, subject to a penalty if prepaid before the fifth anniversary of its issuance.  As of March 31, 2021, the Company had no amount outstanding against the PPLSA.
