As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, loans payable primarily consisted of the BankUnited Term Loan (as defined below) payable to BankUnited N.A. (“BankUnited”).

Each of the BankUnited Loans is evidenced by a promissory note in favor of BankUnited (the “BankUnited Notes”).

 

On May 6, 2019, we entered into that certain First Amendment to Loan Agreement, effective February 26, 2019, with BankUnited (the “First Amendment”).

The Second Amendment also granted us a waiver of compliance for the Financial Covenants (as set forth in the Amended Loan Agreement) for the periods ended December 31, 2021, March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. Based on the waiver, we were no longer in default of the Amended Loan Agreement.

 

On May 11, 2022, we entered into the Third Amendment to the Loan Agreement dated February 26, 2019 (the “Third Amendment”; and, together with the First Amendment, the Letter Agreement and the Second Letter Agreement, the “Amended Loan Agreement”), which further amended the Loan Agreement with BankUnited.

In accordance with the Fifth Amendment, the parties agreed to the following terms, among others: (i) BankUnited agreed to release its security interest in the collateral securing the BankUnited Loans other than a cash collateral account maintained at BankUnited, initially in the amount of approximately $2,457,000, with a portion of such cash collateral to be released on a quarterly basis equal to 110% of the principal reductions effected during that quarter, and (ii) certain other requirements and restrictions of the Loan Agreement were removed, including, among others, financial covenants, restrictions on acquisitions, and limitations on other financing sources. The cash collateral is reflected as Restricted Cash in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023.

  

BankUnited Term Loan

 

Pursuant to the Amended Loan Agreement, BankUnited advanced the Company $5,813,500 to satisfy in full the amounts owed to Avidbank and to pay the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the closing of the BankUnited Loan. The Term Loan is for a 5-year term, but co-terminus with the Revolving Line should the Revolving Line not be renewed beyond February 26, 2022. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, the maturity date of the Term Loan is December 31, 2024.

The Term Loan initially bore interest at a per annum rate equal to 2.75% above the 30-day LIBOR. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, beginning on December 20, 2021, each facility bore interest at BankUnited’s then-prime rate of interest minus fifty (50) basis points, as adjusted from time to time. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, commencing on March 1, 2023, each facility bears interest at BankUnited’s then prime rate of interest, as adjusted from time to time (8.5% as of December 31, 2023).

 

Equal monthly principal payments of approximately $48,446, plus accrued interest, were due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month during the term. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the monthly payment, including principal and interest, increased to $100,000, commencing November 1, 2022. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, commencing on March 1, 2023 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until December 31, 2023, monthly payments were reduced to $75,000, and commencing on January 1, 2024 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the maturity date, monthly payments will increase to $100,000, with each such payment applied first to interest, costs and expenses and then to principal. Upon maturity, all principal and interest shall be immediately due and payable.

 

Security and Guarantees

 

Our obligations under the Amended Loan Agreement were previously collateralized by a first priority security interest (subject to permitted liens) in all of our assets and the assets of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries, GelTech, Inc. (“GelTech”), and ISP, pursuant to a Security Agreement granted by GelTech, ISP, and the Company in favor of BankUnited. The Company’s equity interests in, and the assets of, its foreign subsidiaries were excluded from the security interest. Pursuant to the Fifth Amendment, the security interest in certain of the collateral then securing the BankUnited Loans terminated and was replaced by a security interest in a cash collateral account maintained at BankUnited, initially in the amount of approximately $2,457,000, with a portion of such cash collateral to be released on a quarterly basis equal to 110% of the principal reductions effected during that quarter. In addition, all of the Company’s subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Amended Loan Agreement and related documents, pursuant to Guaranty Agreements executed by the Company and its subsidiaries in favor of BankUnited.

 

General Terms

 

The Amended Loan Agreement initially contained customary covenants, including, but not limited to: (i) limitations on the disposition of property; (ii) limitations on changing the Company’s business or permitting a change in control; (iii) limitations on additional indebtedness or encumbrances; (iv) restrictions on distributions; and (v) limitations on certain investments. The Amended Loan Agreement also contains certain financial covenants, including obligations to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 and a total leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00. The Letter Agreement granted us a waiver of default arising prior to the Letter Agreement from its failure to comply with the fixed charge coverage ratio measured on June 30, 2021. The Second Amendment to the Amended Loan Agreement granted us a waiver of compliance for the Financial Covenants (as set forth in the Amended Loan Agreement) through June 30, 2022. Based on the waivers, we were no longer in default of the Amended Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the Fifth Amendment, certain other requirements and restrictions of the Loan Agreement were removed, including, among others, financial covenants, restrictions on acquisitions, and limitations on other financing sources. As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all required covenants.

 

We may prepay any or all of the BankUnited Loans in whole or in part at any time, without penalty or premium, other than the exit fees, as discussed above. Late payments are subject to a late fee equal to five percent (5%) of the unpaid amount. Amounts outstanding during an event of default accrue interest at a rate of five percent (5%) above BankUnited’s then prime rate of interest, as adjusted from time to time, applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the event of default. The Amended Loan Agreement contains other customary provisions with respect to events of default, expense reimbursement, and confidentiality.

 

Financing costs incurred related to the BankUnited Loans were recorded as a discount on debt and amortized over the term. Amortization of approximately $19,000 and $37,100 is included in interest expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively. There was no amortization for the three and six-month periods ended December 31, 2023, as all costs have been fully amortized in prior periods.

In December 2020, ISP Latvia entered into an equipment loan with a third party (the “2020 Equipment Loan”), which party is also a significant customer, and which the 2020 Equipment Loan is subordinate to the BankUnited Loans, and collateralized by certain equipment. The initial advance under the 2020 Equipment Loan was 225,000 EUR (or USD $275,000), payable in equal installments over 60 months, the proceeds of which were used to make a prepayment to a vendor for equipment to be delivered at a future date. An additional 225,000 EUR (or USD $267,000) was drawn in September 2021, which proceeds were paid to the vendor for the equipment, payable in equal installments over 52 months. The 2020 Equipment Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.3%.

 

In May 2023, ISP Latvia entered into an equipment loan with a third party (the “2023 Equipment Loan”). The 2023 Equipment Loan is collateralized by certain equipment. Through December 31, 2023, ISP Latvia has received two advances under the 2023 Equipment Loan totaling 260,258 EUR (or USD $284,000), the proceeds of which were used to make installment payments to a vendor for equipment to be delivered at a future date. The 2023 Equipment Loan will be payable over 48 months, with monthly installments beginning January 1, 2024.

In July 2023, the acquisition of Visimid included a promissory note of $150,000 in favor of The American National Bank of Texas (the “ANBTX Note”).

The cash collateral is reflected as Restricted Cash in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023.
