DEBT

NOTE 11 DEBT

On April 18, 2020, the Company entered into a loan in an aggregate principal amount of $1,357,000 under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP loan”) pursuant to the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The loan was unsecured, bore interest at a rate of 1% per annum, and was scheduled to mature on April 18, 2022. In October 2020, the Company filed for forgiveness of this loan and in December 2020, the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) approved its forgiveness request. The forgiveness has been accounted for as an extinguishment of debt and the resulting gain has been recorded as forgiveness of note payable on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended March 31, 2021. There is a six-year period during which the SBA can review the Company’s forgiveness.
