Item 1.01                      Entry into a Definitive Material Agreement.

On October 31, 2011, Bovie Medical Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a transaction with respect to the restructuring and reissuance of certain industrial revenue bonds (the “Bonds”) issued by the Pinellas County Industrial Development Authority.  Previously, the Bonds were issued on November 1, 2008 and were secured by a direct pay letter of credit issued by RBC Bank (USA).  The reissued bonds, which had an unpaid principal amount outstanding of $3,560,000 as of the closing, were purchased by PNC Bank, N.A.  The obligations represented by the Bonds are secured by a first mortgage and security interest on the Company’s Clearwater, Florida facility and mature October 31, 2018.

Additionally, the Company and PNC Bank, N.A. entered into a certain revolving credit agreement (the “Revolver”) and a certain non-revolving credit agreement (the “Equipment Loan,” and, together with the Revolver, the “Credit Agreements”).  The Revolver provides for, among other things, a $6 million revolving credit facility.  The Equipment Loan provides for, among other things, a $1 million credit facility, with a one year interest-only draw period ending October 31, 2012 (the “Conversion Date”), followed by an up to five (5) year term loan.

The Revolver is available to the Company to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and is subject to a borrowing base equal to 80% of eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of eligible inventory (each as defined in the Revolver).  The Equipment Loan is available to finance the acquisition of equipment and machinery.  Advances under the Equipment Loan may not exceed ninety percent (90%) of the purchase price of the equipment or machinery being purchased.

The maturity dates for the Revolver and Equipment Loan are October 31, 2013 and October 31, 2017, respectively.

Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 1.75%.  The Equipment Loan prior to conversion into the term loan bears interest on the unpaid balance at the rate of the LIBOR plus 2.25%.  Following conversion into a term loan, interest on the unpaid balance of the Equipment Loan accrues at the rate of the LIBOR plus 2.50%.

The Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreements) are secured by substantially all of the Company’s personal property.

The Credit Agreements contain customary financial covenants, including covenants that the Company maintain: (i) a ratio of total liabilities to Tangible Net Worth (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less 0.75:1.00, and (ii) a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.5:1.0.

The Credit Agreements also contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default.

Item 2.03                      Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The disclosure in Item 1.01 above is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
