Item1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 28, 2022, the Company entered into a financing agreement with Alterna Capital Solutions, LLC (“ACS”), for a line of credit to replace its existing credit facility with Rosenthal & Rosenthal, Inc. The ACS line of credit is for a term of 3 years and provides for borrowings of up to $13,000. Borrowings are based upon eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Inventory collateral is set to a maximum of 100% of eligible accounts receivable. An over advance rider is in place which provides for up to $400 of additional borrowing beyond those amounts.

Borrowings under the ACS financing agreement bear interest of prime plus 4.75% but not less than 8.0% on receivables. Borrowings based on inventory bear an interest of prime plus 5.25% but not less than 8.5%. The additional over advance rider bears a rate of prime plus 12.75%, but not less than 16.00%. Additionally, the line of credit is subject to monthly monitoring fee of $1 with a minimum usage requirement on the credit facility. A loan balance of less than $1,500 will bear interest at a rate in line with account receivables advances plus the monthly monitoring fee of $1.

The Company incurred $503 of direct costs of the transaction, consisting primarily of broker, bank and legal fees. These costs have been capitalized and are being amortized over the 3-year life of the ACS agreement.

The line of credit is secured by eligible accounts receive and inventory of the Company.

The transaction closed on March 31, 2022, upon payoff in full by ACS of the credit facility with Rosenthal & Rosenthal, Inc.

The description of the ACS line of credit contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal period ending December 31, 2021.
