7. FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS 

Notes Payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets consists of:

Paycheck Protection Program Loans

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries received proceeds under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP, established as part of the CARES Act, provided for loans to qualifying business for amounts up to 2.5 times the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business. The PPP Loan (“Note”) and accrued interest are forgivable after twenty-four weeks as long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities and maintains its payroll levels. The amount of forgiveness will be reduced if the borrower terminates employees or reduces salaries during the eight-week period.

During April and May 2020, the UL US Entities received aggregate proceeds of $1,646,062 through this program. The promissory notes mature for dates ranging from April 2022 through May 2022. As of February 28, 2021 and May 31, 2020, the outstanding balance due under these promissory notes was $0 and $1,646,062, respectively.

The interest rate on the above PPP notes is 1.0% per annum, with interest accruing on the unpaid principal balance computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. No payments of principal or interest are due during the six-month period beginning on the date of the Note (“Deferral Period”).

As noted above, the principal and accrued interest under the Note evidencing the PPP Loans are forgivable after twenty-four weeks as long the Company has used the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if the Company terminates employees or reduces salaries during the twenty-four-week period. The Company used the proceeds for purposes consistent with the PPP. In order to obtain full or partial forgiveness of the PPP Loan, the Company must request forgiveness and must provide satisfactory documentation in accordance with applicable Small Business Administration (“SBA”) guidelines. Interest payable on the Note may be forgiven only if the SBA agrees to pay such interest on the forgiven principal amount of the Note. The Company will be obligated to repay any portion of the principal amount of the Note that is not forgiven, together with interest accrued and accruing thereon at the rate set forth above, until such unforgiven portion is paid in full.

Beginning one month following expiration of the Deferral Period and continuing monthly until 24 months from the date of the Note (the “Maturity Date”), the Company is obligated to make monthly payments of principal and interest to the Lender with respect to any unforgiven portion of the Note, in such equal amounts required to fully amortize the principal amount outstanding on the Note as of the last day of the Deferral Period by the Maturity Date. The Company is permitted to prepay the Note at any time without payment of any premium.

During January 2021, the PPP notes, which were assumed without recourse in the May 2020 acquisition (see Note 2) were utilized for eligible purposes under the terms of the agreements and were forgiven after the expiration of the twenty four week period discussed above. The total amount forgiven was $1,646,062 and is included in gain on forgiveness of promissory notes on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
