We may need additional funding to support our operations. We were formed in 1991 and have incurred losses of approximately $22 million since that date. We have primarily financed research, development and operational activities with issuances of our common stock and warrants, the exercise of stock options to purchase our common stock, stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and, in some years, by operating profits. On August 9, 2019, we entered into a loan and security agreement with Crestmark Bank. The loan is due on demand, has no financial covenants and is secured by all of our assets. Under the agreement, we were provided with a line of credit that is not to exceed the lesser of $1,000,000 or 85% of eligible accounts receivable. The interest rate is prime rate (3.25% at March 31, 2020) plus 1.5%, with a floor of 6.75%, plus a monthly maintenance fee of 0.4%, based on the average monthly loan balance. Interest is charged on a minimum loan balance of $500,000, a loan fee of 1% annually, and an exit fee of 3%, 2% and 1% during years one, two and three, respectively. At March 31, 2020, we had $385,132 in cash available to fund future operations, borrowed $370,498 and had $233,103 available to borrow. On April 17, 2020, we entered into an unsecured promissory note under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) for a principal amount of $598,567. The PPP was established under the recently congressionally approved Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The term of the PPP loan is for two years with an interest rate of 1.0% per year, which will be deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. After the initial six-month deferral period, the loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest until maturity with respect to any portion of the PPP loan which is not forgiven. Under the terms of the CARES Act, a PPP loan recipient may apply for, and be granted, forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined based upon the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs, rent and utility costs, and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. There can be no assurance that we would be successful in obtaining alternative sources of funding to repay this obligation. Should we need additional financing, we may not be able to obtain it on terms acceptable to us or at all.

As of March 31, 2020, the following table shows our contractual obligations for the periods presented: At March 31, 2020, we had $385,132 in cash available to fund future operations, borrowed $370,498 and had $233,103 available to borrow.

On April 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 842 “Leases” using the initial date of adoption method, whereby the adoption does not impact any periods prior to April 1, 2019. ASC Topic 842 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases’ guidance. We recorded an operating Right of Use (“ROU”) asset of $1,555,150, and an operating lease liability of $1,619,842 as of April 1, 2019. The difference between the initial operating ROU asset and operating lease liability of $64,692 is accrued rent previously recorded under ASC 840. We elected to adopt the package of practical expedients and, accordingly, did not reassess any previously expired or existing arrangements and related classifications under ASC 840.


Except for the two events that follow, management evaluated all of our activity and concluded that, as of the date the financial statements were issued, no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the financial statements.

On April 20, 2020, we entered into a Master Services Agreement (“MSA”) with Auris Health, Inc. (“Auris Health”), which is based in Redwood City, CA and a part of Johnson & Johnson Medical Devices Companies. The MSA (and the initial related Statement of Work thereunder) are effective as of March 3, 2020. Under the MSA, we and Auris Health will collaborate on the development of equipment designed to enable the compatibility of our AEM technology with monopolar instruments produced by Auris Health. The MSA has a term of up to three years, but either party can terminate the MSA sooner upon 10 business days’ prior written notice. The initial phase under the MSA is expected to last six months. We expect to receive up to approximately $320,000 in service fees for work during the initial phase. After completion of the initial phase, the parties will mutually agree on the timing, parameters and compensation for additional phases under the MSA (if any).
