ITEM 1.01
|
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On May 3, 2020, ABCO Energy, Inc., (the “Company”) entered into a promissory note evidencing an unsecured loan in the amount of $124,099.00 made to the Company under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “Loan”). The Paycheck Protection Program (or “PPP”) was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The Loan to the Company is being made through Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association (the “Lender”).
The interest rate on the Loan will not exceed 1.00%. The promissory note evidencing the Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, making materially false and misleading representations to the SBA or Lender, or breaching the terms of the Loan documents. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, or filing suit and obtaining judgment against the Company.
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 PPP. 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. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the Loan in whole or in part. If the SBA does not confirm forgiveness of the Loan, or only partly confirms forgiveness of the Loan, including principal and interest (“Loan Balance”); then. in either such case, the Lender will establish the terms of repayment of the Loan Balance via a separate letter to the Company, containing the amount of each monthly payment, the interest rate, etc.
The foregoing description of the Note do not purport to be complete and are qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated hereby by reference.
