Item 1.02 – Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On February 3, 2021, Nuvera Communications, Inc. (“Nuvera” or the “Company”) was notified by Citizens Bank Minnesota (“Citizens”), the lender on the Company’s Paycheck Protection Program Loan (“PPP Loan”), as described below, that Citizens had received payment in full from the United States federal government for the amount of the Company’s PPP Loan and the Company’s PPP Loan had been fully forgiven.

 

On April 16, 2020, Nuvera received approximately $2.9 million in support from the United States federal government under the PPP established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, or the CARES Act. The PPP was administered by the United States Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and was designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers employed during the COVID-19 crisis. The SBA was given the authority under the PPP to forgive loans if all employees were kept on the payroll for a required period and the loan proceeds were used for payroll, rent and utilities. As previously disclosed, Nuvera retained employment of all employees through the required period and followed all applicable SBA rules regarding its PPP Loan. The Company applied for debt forgiveness in August 2020.
