3.  Notes Payable

On May 4, 2020, the Company obtained a loan (Loan) from the Bank of America (Lender) in the aggregate amount of $0.4 million, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Plan (PPP), established as part of the CARES Act. The Loan is evidenced by a promissory note dated May 4, 2020 issued by the Company and will accrue interest at a fixed interest rate of 1% per annum from the funding date of May 4, 2020. Payments of principal and interest have been deferred  since the funding under the original terms of the promissory note. However, the Loan and accrued interest may be forgivable at the conclusion of this period.

Under the terms of the PPP, certain amounts of the Loan may be forgiven if they are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act. The terms of the promissory note, including eligibility and forgiveness, may be subject to additional requirements adopted by the SBA. Any unforgiven portion of the PPP loan, including principal and interest, will mature on May 4, 2022 and will be required to be payable monthly. The Note may be prepaid by the Company at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties.

The Company has accounted for the loan under FASB ASC 470, Debt. Repayment amounts due within one year have been recorded as current liabilities, and the remaining amounts due in more than one year as long-term liabilities. On December 18, 2020, the Company submitted the loan forgiveness application for the entire borrowings of $0.4 million to the Lender and was notified on January 7, 2021 that the application was submitted to the Small Business Administration (SBA) for review. The SBA had up to 90 days from the date of submittal to make a final decision on loan forgiveness. The Company has yet to be notified of the SBA’s forgiveness decision.

If the Company is successful in receiving forgiveness for any portion of the loan used for qualifying expenses, those amounts will be recorded as a gain upon extinguishment.
