The Commercial Loan provides the Company with a revolving line of credit for the working capital needs of the Company. Under the terms of the Commercial Loan, the Company may borrow an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of (i) $9.0 million, or (ii) the sum of 85% of certain receivables aged 90 days or less plus 35% of the lesser of $1.0 million or certain foreign receivables plus 25% of certain raw materials inventory.
 
On May 7, 2015, subsequent to the Company’s fiscal second quarter, the Company entered into a commercial note renewal letter (“Binding Letter of Renewal”) extending the maturity date of the Commercial Loan to August 31, 2017. The Binding Letter of Renewal extends the maturity date of the Commercial Loan. All other terms of the Commercial Loan remain unaltered and remain in full force and effect. Within the revolving loan limit of the Commercial Loan and the Binding Letter of Renewal, the Company may borrow, repay, and reborrow, at any time from time to time until August 31, 2017. The Company also entered into an Amended and Restated Security Agreement dated May 7, 2015 which is substantially similar in all material aspects to, and replaces in its entirety, the original Security Agreement dated April 30, 2010.
 
Advances under the Commercial Loan accrue interest at LIBOR plus 2.2% (resulting in a 2.38% rate at April 30, 2015). Accrued interest on the outstanding principal balance is due on the first day of each month, with all then outstanding principal, interest, fees and costs due at the Commercial Loan maturity date of August 31, 2017.
 
The Commercial Loan is secured by a first priority lien on all of the Company’s inventory, accounts, general intangibles, deposit accounts, instruments, investment property, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, documents and chattel paper.
