Note 8 – SBA PPP Loan


On March 27, 2020, former President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (the “CARES Act”), which, among other things, outlines the provisions of the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”). The Company determined that it met the criteria to be eligible to obtain a loan under the PPP because, among other reasons, in light of the COVID-19 outbreak and the uncertainty of economic conditions related thereto, the loan was considered necessary to support the Company’s ongoing operations and retain all its employees. In addition, former President Trump signed into law the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act on April 24, 2020, which increased funding provided by the CARES Act. On May 4, 2020 the Company issued a promissory note (the “Note”) to Bank of America in the principal aggregate amount of $722,577 (the “PPP Loan”) pursuant to the PPP under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The funds were deposited into the Company’s bank account on May 4, 2020. On June 5, 2020 the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act was signed into law and extended the program until December 31, 2020.


Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loan granted under the program. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payment of payroll costs and any payments of mortgage interest, rent, and utilities. The PPP Loan had a two-year term and bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments are deferred for nine months after the date of disbursement. The PPP Loan may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. Based on the June 5, 2020 Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act, certain changes will need to be made to the original Note, based on the new law.


The Company submitted its application for 100% loan forgiveness in October 2020.


In December 2020 the loan was 100% forgiven by the SBA. As a result, the Company recorded a gain on the forgiveness of the loan in the amount of $722,577.
