East West Bank Line of Credit and Long-Term Debt

On January 12, 2022, the Company entered into a third amendment of the loan and security agreement with EWB (the “Amendment”), which increased the borrowing capacity of the Company’s revolving line of credit to $10.0 million, $2.9 million of which was outstanding at December 31, 2022, and added a term loan not to exceed $20.0 million. Both the revolving line of credit and the term loan mature on January 12, 2026. In January 2022 and August 2022, the Company borrowed $15.0 million and $5.0 million, respectively, against the term loan. The term loan bears interest at a floating rate equal to 1.73% above the prime rate and are payable monthly. The term loan effective interest rate at December 31, 2022 is 9.64%. The term loan contains an interest-only payment period through January 12, 2024, with an extension through July 12, 2024, if certain covenants are met, after which the outstanding balance of each term loan is payable in equal monthly installments of principal, plus all accrued interest, through the term loan maturity date. The Company may prepay all or any part of the term loan without penalty or premium, but may not re-borrow any amount, once repaid. Any outstanding borrowing against the revolving line of credit bears interest at a floating rate equal to 0.70% above the prime rate. The Amendment includes customary financial covenants such as collateral ratios and minimum liquidity provisions. The Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under the Amendment as of December 31, 2022. The remaining $7.1 million revolving line of credit is fully available to the Company without any restrictions, other than certain customary and ordinary closing conditions.

The Company accounted for the Amendment as a debt modification. The remaining unamortized debt issuance costs related to the original revolving facility together with any lender fees and direct third-party costs incurred in connection with the entry into the Amendment are considered associated with the new arrangement. The fees allocated to the revolving line are amortized over the new four-year term of the amended revolving facility. The fees allocated to the term loan are recorded as a debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the four-year term of the term loan under the effective interest method.
