Under the terms of the Seventh Gilbert Note, the Company agreed to pay the unpaid interest of $1,107,000 accrued under the Sixth Gilbert Note and included in the Seventh Gilbert Note at the time and on the terms set forth in the Seventh Gilbert Note. Under the terms of the Seventh Gilbert Note, the maturity date of the loan was extended to November 1, 2022, and the annual interest rate remained at 9.75%, with annual interest payments required to be made on October 31st of each year (although any accrued interest can be paid before such time without penalty). The note payable is secured by the Company’s assets. The amendments to the Sixth Gilbert Note were determined to be a modification of the debt instrument and no gain or loss was recorded as a result of the transactions.
