NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTY DEBT AGREEMENTS

Subordinated Line of Credit Facility

On May 11, 2022, the Company entered into a Credit Facility Agreement (the “Subordinated LOC”) with Cleveland Capital, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Cleveland”), Herndon Plant Oakley, Ltd., (“HPO”), and other lenders (together with Cleveland and HPO, the “Lenders”). The Subordinated LOC provides the Company with a short-term line of credit (the “LOC”) not less than $3,000,000 and not more than $5,000,000, the proceeds of which shall be used by the Company for working capital purposes. In connection with the LOC, the Company issued a separate subordinated unsecured promissory note in favor of each respective Lender (each promissory note, a “Note”) for each Lender’s commitment amount (each such commitment amount, a “Commitment Amount”). As of June 30, 2022, the Lenders committed an aggregate of $4,000,000.

Pursuant to the terms of the Subordinated LOC, each Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such loan, an “Advance”) up to such Lender’s Commitment Amount to the Company from time to time, until December 31, 2022 (the “Due Date”). The Company may, from time to time, prior to the Due Date, draw down, repay, and re-borrow on the Note, by giving notice to the Lenders of the amount to be requested to be drawn down.

Each Note bears an interest rate of 15.0% per annum on each Advance from and after the date of disbursement of such Advance and is payable on (i) the Due Date in cash or shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at the sole election of the Company, unless such Due Date extended pursuant to the Note, or (ii) on occurrence of an event of Default (as defined in the Note). The Due Date may be extended (i) at the sole election of the Company for one (1) additional year period from the Due Date upon the payment of a commitment fee equal to two percent (2%) of the Commitment Amount to the Lender within thirty (30) days prior to the original Due Date, or (ii) by the Lender in writing. In addition, each Lender signed a Subordination Agreement by and between the Lenders and Silicon Valley Bank, a California corporation (“SVB”), dated as of May 11, 2022 (the “Subordination Agreement”) for the purposes of subordinating the right to payment under the Note to SVB’s indebtedness by the Company now outstanding or hereinafter incurred.

The Subordinated LOC includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and the Lenders. The Company has also agreed to pay the legal fees of Cleveland’s counsel in an amount up to $10,000. In addition, each Note also provides that, upon the occurrence of a Default, at the option of the Lender, the entire outstanding principal balance, all accrued but unpaid interest and/or Late Charges (as defined in the Note) at once will become due and payable upon written notice to the Company by the Lender.

In connection with entry into the Subordinated LOC, the Company paid to each Lender a one-time committee fee in cash equal to 3.5% of such Lender’s Commitment Amount. In addition, in consideration of the Lenders’ commitment to provide the Advances to the Company, the Company issued the Lenders five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 128,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.53 per share that are, subject to certain ownership limitations, exercisable immediately (the “Warrants”) (the number of warrants issued to each Lender is equal to the product of (i) 160,000 shares of common stock multiplied by (ii) the ratio represented by each Lender’s Commitment Amount divided by the $5,000,000).

Pursuant to a selling agreement, dated as of May 11, 2022, the Company retained HPO as its placement agent in connection with the Subordinated LOC. As compensation for services rendered in conjunction with the Subordinated LOC, the Company paid HPO a finder fee equal to 3% of the Commitment Amount from each such Lender placed by HPO in cash.

Esenjay Loan

On March 9, 2020, the Company and Esenjay Investments, LLC (“Esenjay”) entered into a certain convertible promissory note (“Original Esenjay Note”) pursuant to which Esenjay provided the Company with a loan in the principal amount of $750,000 (the “Esenjay Loan”). On June 2, 2020, the Original Esenjay Note was amended and restated to (i) extend the maturity date from June 30, 2020 to September 30, 2020, and (ii) to increase the principal amount outstanding under the Original Esenjay Note to $1,400,000 (the “Esenjay Note”).

Between June 26, 2020 and July 22, 2020, Esenjay assigned a total of $900,000 of the Esenjay Note to three (3) accredited investors and the $900,000 note balance was converted into shares of common stock at $4.00 per share, which was the cash price per share, and resulted in the issuance of 225,000 shares of common stock.

On August 31, 2020, the Company entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Facility Agreement and pursuant to which the Company further amended the Esenjay Note to, among other items, transfer all remaining principal and accrued interest outstanding of approximately $564,000 into the amended Credit Facility Agreement. (See “Credit Facility” below).

Cleveland Loan

On July 3, 2019, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Cleveland, pursuant to which Cleveland agreed to loan the Company $1,000,000 (the “Cleveland Loan”) and issued Cleveland an unsecured short-term promissory note in the amount of $1,000,000 (the “Unsecured Promissory Note”). The Unsecured Promissory Note had an interest rate of 15.0% per annum and was originally due on September 1, 2019, unless repaid earlier from a percentage of proceeds from certain identified accounts receivable. In connection with the Cleveland Loan, the Company issued Cleveland a three-year warrant (the “Cleveland Warrant”) to purchase the Company’s common stock in a number equal to 0.5% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding after giving effect to the shares of common stock sold in a contemplated public offering and with an exercise price equal to the per share price of the common stock sold in the public offering.

On September 1, 2019, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Unsecured Promissory Note pursuant to which the maturity date was extended to December 1, 2019 (the “First Amendment”) and the Cleveland Warrant terms were amended (the “Amended Warrant”). The Amended Warrant increased the warrant coverage from 0.5% to 1% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding after giving effect to the shares of common stock sold in the next private or public offering and with an exercise price equal to the per share price of common stock sold in such private or public offering, as the case may be.

On July 9, 2020, the Company made a payment to Cleveland in the amount of $200,000 as a partial payment of the Cleveland Loan. On July 27, 2020, in connection with the outstanding loan from Cleveland to the Company in the principal amount of $957,000, the Company entered into the Eighth Amendment to the Unsecured Promissory Note which extended the maturity date from July 31, 2020 to August 31, 2020, and capitalized all accrued and unpaid interest as of July 27, 2020 to the principal amount. On August 19, 2020, the Company paid Cleveland the entire remaining principal balance due under the Cleveland Loan, together with all accrued interest payable as of August 19, 2020, in an aggregate amount of approximately $978,000.

On March 22, 2018, Flux Power entered into a credit facility agreement with Esenjay with a maximum borrowing amount of $5,000,000 (the “Original Agreement”). The Original Agreement was amended multiple times to allow for, among other things, an increase in the maximum principal amount available under line of credit (“LOC”) to $12,000,000, the inclusion of additional lenders and extension of the maturity date to September 30, 2021.

In August 2020, the Company paid down an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1,402,000 of the outstanding balance under the LOC.

In November 2020, lenders holding an aggregate of approximately $2,161,000 in principal and accrued interest elected to convert their notes into 540,347 shares of common stock at a price of $4.00 per share. In January and March 2021, the lenders holding an aggregate of approximately $2,632,000 in principal and accrued interest elected to convert their notes into 658,103 shares of common stock at a price of $4.00 per share of which approximately $1,045,000 was held by Esenjay and converted to 261,133 shares of common stock.
