During Fiscal
2021,
we made voluntary principal payments totaling
$10,000,000
to certain Lenders, which decreased the principal balance outstanding to
$10,000,000
under our Credit Facility.
 
Pursuant to the terms of our Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, during Fiscal
2021,
we issued an aggregate of
1,249,039
shares with a fair value of
$1,170,000,
representing
6.5%
of the
$18,000,000
principal balance outstanding at the time; and during Fiscal
2020,
we issued an aggregate of
1,743,462
shares with a fair value of
$1,400,000,
representing
7%
of the
$20,000,000
principal balance outstanding at the time; as payments of anniversary fees to the Lenders.
 
During Fiscal
2021
and Fiscal
2020,
the amortization of debt discount and accrued fees totaled
$1,375,754
and
$1,669,514,
respectively, which was recorded as interest expense and included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. During Fiscal
2021
and Fiscal
2020,
we paid
$1,255,556
and
$1,626,667,
respectively, in cash for interest on our long-term debt.
 
The shares issued to the Lenders either as the
third
extension fees or the anniversary fees have been recorded as discounts on long-term debt, which are amortized using the respective effective interest rates at the time of issuance over the remaining contractual life of the long-term debt.
 
The Company's Credit Facility with our remaining Lender has a maturity date on
January 31, 2022,
with an interest rate of
8%
per annum and an underlying effective interest rate of
18.10%.
 
As of
July 31, 2021,
our working capital ratio, excluding the current portion of the long-term debt, was
23:1,
which was in compliance with the debt covenant requirement under our Credit Facility being a working capital ratio, excluding any current portion of the long-term debt, of
not
less than
1:1.
The Credit Facility is secured against all of the Company's current and after-acquired assets until terminated in accordance with its terms.
