Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	(7) Debt In December 2013, we entered into a promissory note agreement with our then Chairman of the Board and one of our major shareholders, pursuant to which we borrowed $500,000 (the 2013 Promissory Note). The 2013 Promissory Note is secured and bears interest at 6% per annum and was originally due June 30, 2014. According to the terms of the 2013 Promissory Note, at any time, the lenders may settle any or all of the principal and accrued interest with shares of our common stock. In connection with the 2013 Promissory Note, each of the two lenders was issued 5,000,000 Class L warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.06 per share. The warrants were immediately exercisable. In June 2014, we renegotiated the terms of the 2013 Promissory Note. Pursuant to the modification, the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2017 and each lender was granted an additional 7,500,000 Class L warrants to purchases shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.06 per share. The warrants were immediately exercisable. In February 2017, the 2013 Promissory Note was further modified to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2020, with all remaining terms unchanged. On December 23, 2018, all 25,000,000 Class L warrants expired. In December 2019, the 2013 Promissory Note was further modified to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2021, with all remaining terms unchanged. At September 30, 2020, the principal balance of the 2013 Promissory Note was $500,000 and accrued interest payable on the 2013 Promissory Note was $204,234. Interest expense recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $22,500. In April 2018, we borrowed $120,000 from our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board pursuant to a promissory note (the 2018 Promissory Note). The 2018 Promissory Note accrues interest at 6% per annum, which is payable upon maturity of the 2018 Promissory Note. The 2018 Promissory Note was originally unsecured and originally matured on August 1, 2018. At any time, the holder of the 2018 Promissory Note may elect to have any or all of the principal and accrued interest settled with shares of our common stock based on the average price of the shares over the previous 20 trading days. Pursuant to an amendment to the 2018 Promissory Note in June 2018, the maturity date was extended to March 31, 2019 with all other provisions remaining unchanged. Pursuant to a second amendment to the 2018 Promissory Note in February 2019, the maturity date was extended to July 31, 2019 with all other provisions remaining unchanged. Pursuant to a third amendment to the 2018 Promissory Note in July 2019, the maturity date was extended to January 31, 2020 with all other provisions remaining unchanged. Pursuant to a fourth amendment to the 2018 Promissory Note in December 2019, the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2021, the note was modified to become secured by company assets, with all other provisions remaining unchanged. At September 30, 2020, accrued interest on the 2018 Promissory Note totaled $17,570. In April 2019, one of the prepaid revenue customers requested a refund of the amounts paid. The Company entered into a note agreement to repay $2,182,142 over the next 12 months. The modification was necessary to address the delays to cobalt delivery in 2019 caused by changes to the ATR operating schedule and also to accommodate this customer’s request to reduce their cobalt purchase obligations in future years. The modifications require that the Company refund approximately $1,050,000, of payments received for prior year undelivered material, plus interest at 12% per year, payable over a one-year period on a portion of that amount. The Company has also agreed with this customer to refund approximately $1,100,000 paid for material that was to have been delivered in later years. There will be no interest charge on this refund. In December 2019, this agreement was modified further allowing the Company to delay the original payments by 3 months and refund an additional $462,258 with no interest charge. At September 30, 2020 balance on this refund is $462,258. On December 20, 2019, the Company entered into a promissory note agreement with four of the Company’s major shareholders (the 2019 Promissory Note). The 2019 Promissory Note authorizes the Company to borrow up to $1,000,000. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had borrowed $675,000 under the 2019 promissory note. In February 2020, the Company borrowed an additional $325,000. The 2019 Promissory Note bears an interest rate of 4% annually and is due December 31, 2022. According to the terms of the 2019 Promissory Note, at any time, the lenders may settle any or all of the principal and accrued interest with shares of the Company’s common stock based on the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 20 days preceding the payment. In connection with the 2019 Promissory Note, the lenders were issued warrants totaling 30,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.045 per share. The fair value of these warrants issued totaled $446,079 and was recorded as a debt discount and will be amortized over the life of the 2019 Promissory Note. The Company calculated a beneficial conversion feature of $315,643 which will be accreted to interest expense over the life of the 2019 Promissory Note. At September 30, 2020 accrued interest on the 2019 Promissory Note totaled $29,131. On April 23, 2020, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary entered into a Loan Agreement and Promissory Note (collectively the “SBA Loan”) with KeyBank National Association pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The Company received total proceeds of $546,100 from the SBA Loan. The SBA Loan is scheduled to mature on April 22, 2022 and has a 1.00% interest rate and is subject to the terms and conditions applicable to loans administered by the SBA under the CARES Act. The SBA Loan may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The SBA Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and breaches of representations and warranties. Subject to certain conditions, the SBA Loan may be forgiven in whole or in part by applying for forgiveness pursuant to the CARES Act and the PPP. The amount of loan proceeds eligible for forgiveness is based on a formula based on a number of factors, including the amount of loan proceeds used by the Company during the twenty-four week period after the loan origination for certain purposes, including payroll costs, interest on certain mortgage obligations, rent payments on certain leases, and certain qualified utility payments, provided that, among other things, at least 60% of the loan amount is used for eligible payroll costs, the employer maintaining or rehiring employees and maintaining salaries at certain level. As of September 30, 2020, the Company has used the entire loan proceeds to fund qualifying expenses. As a result, the Company believes that it has met the PPP eligibility criteria for forgiveness and has concluded that the loan represents, in substance, a government grant that is expected to be forgiven. As such, the Company has recognized the entire loan amount as ‘Other Income’ at September 30, 2020. The Company does not anticipate taking any action that would cause any portion of the loan to be ineligible for forgiveness. However, to the extent that any amount is deemed unforgivable, such amount is payable over two to five years at an interest rate of 1%, with a deferral of payments for the first six months.
