During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company and GFCM amended the Note to, among other things: (i) increase the principal amount by $2,500,000 to $9,000,000, (ii) extend the maturity dates for $2,000,000 of the obligation to April 1, 2025, $2,000,000 to April 1, 2026 and the balance to April 1, 2027, and (iii) allow for the deferral of payment for up to 60% of the interest due on the Note to April 1, 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company further amended the Note to increase the principal amount by $3,000,000 with a maturity date of April 1, 2029, extend the maturity dates on all tranches by one year and allow for the continued deferral of payment for up to 100% of the interest due on the Note to April 1, 2026. Interest on the Note is payable quarterly, and the rate is reset on April 1 of each year at the greater of 8% or 500 basis points above the five-year Treasury note average during the previous 90-day period.
