As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, loans payable primarily consisted of the BankUnited Term Loan (as defined below) payable to BankUnited N.A. (“BankUnited”). On February 26, 2019, we entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with BankUnited for (i) a revolving line of credit up to maximum amount of $2,000,000 (the “BankUnited Revolving Line”), (ii) a term loan in the amount of up to $5,813,500 (“BankUnited Term Loan”), and (iii) a non-revolving guidance line of credit up to a maximum amount of $10,000,000 (the “Guidance Line” and, together with the BankUnited Revolving Line and BankUnited Term Loan, the “BankUnited Loans”), which Guidance Line has since been terminated. Each of the BankUnited Loans is evidenced by a promissory note in favor of BankUnited (the “BankUnited Notes”). Simultaneously with the execution of the Loan Agreement, we used the proceeds from the BankUnited Term Loan to pay in full, all outstanding amounts owed to Avidbank Corporate Finance, a division of Avidbank (“Avidbank”) pursuant to an acquisition term loan.

On May 6, 2019, we entered into that certain First Amendment to Loan Agreement, effective February 26, 2019, with BankUnited (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment amended the definition of the fixed charge coverage ratio to more accurately reflect the parties’ understandings at the time the Loan Agreement was executed.

On September 9, 2021, we entered into a letter agreement with BankUnited (the “Letter Agreement”). The Letter Agreement: (i) reduced the fixed charge coverage ratio to 1.0 for the quarter ending September 30, 2021 and to 1.1 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021; (ii) modified the calculation for both the fixed charge coverage ratio and the total leverage ratio to provide for adjustments related to expenses incurred in connection with the employee matters that occurred during fiscal 2021 at LPOI and LPOIZ, which expenses must be approved by BankUnited; (iii) terminated the Guidance Line; and (iv) required approval from BankUnited prior to our being able to draw upon the Revolving Line, subject to our compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio for the quarters ending September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021. The Letter Agreement also granted us a waiver of default arising prior to the Letter Agreement for our failure to comply with the fixed charge coverage ratio measured on June 30, 2021. Based on the waiver, we were no longer in default of the Amended Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2021. Finally, in connection with the Letter Agreement, we paid BankUnited a fee equal to $10,000.

On November 5, 2021, we entered into a letter agreement with BankUnited (the “Second Letter Agreement”). In accordance with the Second Letter Agreement, the parties agreed to initiate discussions regarding a possible modification, forebearance, or other resolution of the Amended Loan Agreement (as defined below), which resolution would occur on or before December 31, 2021. On December 20, 2021, we entered into the Second Amendment to the Loan Agreement dated February 26, 2019 (the “Second Amendment”), which further amended the Loan Agreement with BankUnited. In accordance with the Second Amendment, the parties agreed to the following terms, among others: (i) a maturity date of April 15, 2023 with respect to the Term Loan (as defined in the Amended Loan Agreement); (ii) an increased monthly payment amount of $100,000 commencing on November 1, 2022; (iii) beginning on December 20, 2021, each facility will bear interest at BankUnited’s then-prime rate of interest minus fifty (50) basis points (3.0% as of March 31, 2022), as adjusted from time to time, (iv) the Term Loan will bear a higher interest rate commencing on August 1, 2022; (v) an exit fee equal to 4% of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan on April 15, 2023 (to the extent the Term Loan is still outstanding on such date and has not been refinanced with another lender); and (vi) a fee of $50,000 payable upon execution of the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment also granted us a waiver of compliance for the Financial Covenants (as set forth in the Amended Loan Agreement) for the periods ended December 31, 2021, March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022.

On May 11, 2022, we entered into the Third Amendment to the Loan Agreement dated February 26, 2019 (the “Third Amendment”; and, together with the First Amendment, the Letter Agreement and the Second Letter Agreement, the “Amended Loan Agreement”), which further amended the Loan Agreement with BankUnited. In accordance with the Third Amendment, the parties agreed to the following terms, among others: (i) an amended maturity date of April 15, 2024 with respect to the Term Loan (as defined in the Amended Loan Agreement); and (ii) an amended exit fee equal to (a) 2% of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan on September 30, 2022, (b) 1% of the outstanding principal balance on December 31, 2022, (c) 1% of the outstanding principal balance on March 31, 2023, and (d) 4% of the outstanding principal balance on April 15, 2024 (to the extent the Term Loan is still outstanding on the respective dates and has not been refinanced with another lender).

We have commenced discussions with other lenders, with the intent of refinancing our credit facility prior to maturity with reasonable commercial terms, of which there can be no assurance. If we are unable to refinance the credit facility with other commercial lenders prior to maturity, we may need to raise additional equity financing, source financing through non-commercial lenders or further reduce certain operating expenses and capital expenditures. For additional information, see Note 14, Liquidity.

BankUnited Revolving Line

Pursuant to the Amended Loan Agreement, BankUnited agreed to make loan advances under the BankUnited Revolving Line to us up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed $2,000,000, which proceeds could have been used for working capital and general corporate purposes. There were no amounts outstanding on the BankUnited Revolving Line as of June 30, 2021 and no amounts were due upon its expiration on February 26, 2022.

BankUnited Term Loan

Pursuant to the Amended Loan Agreement, BankUnited advanced us $5,813,500 to satisfy in full the amounts owed to Avidbank, including the outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest under the acquisition term loan and to pay the fees and expenses incurred in connection with closing of the BankUnited Loans. The Term Loan was for a 5-year term, but co-terminus with the BankUnited Revolving Line should the BankUnited Revolving Line not be renewed beyond February 26, 2022. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the maturity date of the Term Loan was April 15, 2023, and pursuant to the Third Amendment, the maturity date of the Term Loan is April 15, 2024. The Term Loan initially bore interest at a per annum rate equal to 2.75% above the 30-day LIBOR. However, pursuant to the Second Amendment, beginning on December 20, 2021, each facility bears interest at BankUnited’s then-prime rate of interest minus fifty (50) basis points (3.0% as of March 31, 2022), as adjusted from time to time. Equal monthly principal payments of approximately $48,446, plus accrued interest, are due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month during the term. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the monthly payment, including principal and interest, will increase to $100,000, commencing November 1, 2022. Upon maturity, all principal and interest shall be immediately due and payable.

Security and Guarantees

Our obligations under the Amended Loan Agreement are collateralized by a first priority security interest (subject to permitted liens) in all of our assets and the assets of our U.S. subsidiaries, GelTech, Inc. (“GelTech”), and ISP, pursuant to a Security Agreement granted by GelTech, ISP, and us in favor of BankUnited. Our equity interests in, and the assets of, our foreign subsidiaries are excluded from the security interest. In addition, all of our subsidiaries have guaranteed our obligations under the Amended Loan Agreement and related documents, pursuant to Guaranty Agreements executed by us and our subsidiaries in favor of BankUnited.

General Terms

The Amended Loan Agreement contains customary covenants, including, but not limited to: (i) limitations on the disposition of property; (ii) limitations on changing our business or permitting a change in control; (iii) limitations on additional indebtedness or encumbrances; (iv) restrictions on distributions; and (v) limitations on certain investments. The Amended Loan Agreement also contains certain financial covenants, including obligations to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 and a total leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, compliance for both the fixed charge coverage ratio and total leverage ratio was waived for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and we were in compliance with all other required covenants, as amended.

We may prepay any or all of the BankUnited Loans in whole or in part at any time, without penalty or premium. Late payments are subject to a late fee equal to five percent (5%) of the unpaid amount. Amounts outstanding during an event of default were to accrue interest at a rate of five percent (5%) above the 30-day LIBOR applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the event of default. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, beginning on December 20, 2021, the default rate was converted to five percent (5%) above BankUnited’s then-prime rate of interest minus fifty (50) basis points, as adjusted from time to time. The Amended Loan Agreement contains other customary provisions with respect to events of default, expense reimbursement, and confidentiality.

Financing costs incurred related to the BankUnited Loans were recorded as a discount on debt and will be amortized over the term. Amortization of approximately $33,400 and $13,900 is included in interest expense for the nine-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

In December 2020, ISP Latvia entered into an equipment loan with a third party (the “Equipment Loan”), which party is also a significant customer, and which the Equipment Loan is subordinate to the BankUnited Loans, and collateralized by certain equipment. The initial advance under the Equipment Loan was 225,000 EUR (or USD $275,000), payable in equal installments over 60 months, the proceeds of which were used to make a prepayment to a vendor for equipment to be delivered at a future date. An additional 225,000 EUR (or USD $267,000) was drawn in September 2021, which proceeds were paid to the vendor for the equipment, payable in equal installments over 52 months. The Equipment Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.3%.
