Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Agreement.

 

The information set forth in Item 2.03 is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

 

Item 2.03Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

 

On February 24, 2021, Bionik Laboratories Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a Term Loan and Security Agreement dated as of February 12, 2021 (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company may borrow up to $3,000,000 (such borrowed amount, the “Loan”) from lenders from time to time. On February 24, 2021, the Company borrowed an aggregate of $500,000 (the “Initial Loan”) pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, with $300,000 of the Initial Loan from RGD Investissements S.A.S., an affiliate of Mr. Remi Gaston-Dreyfus, a director and existing stockholder of the Company, and $200,000 of the Initial Loan from 4 Star, an affiliate of Dr. Andre-Jacques Auberton-Herve, the Chairman of the Board and an existing stockholder (each, along with any other lenders under the Agreement, a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”).

 

RGD Investissements S.A.S., is acting as collateral agent under the Agreement on behalf of the Lenders with customary rights and obligations (as such, the “Collateral Agent”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, after the Initial Loan, the Company may elect to borrow an additional up to $2,500,000 (such increases, the “Additional Loans”), subject to the following: (a) the original principal amount of the Additional Loans shall not exceed $2,500,000; (b) an event of default shall not have occurred or be occurring before or immediately after each such Additional Loan is given effect; (c) Additional Loans are only to be provided by existing Lenders (or their respective affiliates) and other lenders approved by the Collateral Agent; and (d) any Lender may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide any amount of any requested Additional Loan.

 

Each Additional Loan is to be executed, on the same terms as the Initial Loan, pursuant to one or more joinder agreements.

 

The principal amount of and interest on the Loan will be due and payable on the earlier of: (i) February 12, 2023 and (ii) the date of receipt by the Company of a minimum of $3,000,000 in equity.

 

The Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 1% per month. Without penalty, the Company may prepay the Loan in whole or in part.

 

The Loan contains customary events of default, which entitles the Lenders holding a majority of the principal amount of the Loan to declare the unpaid principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the Loan, due and payable.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company (a) granted to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and to secure the payment and performance in full of the payment obligations of the Company under the Agreement, security interests in, and (b) pledged and collaterally assigned to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, the Company’s inventory (the “Security Interest”).

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Security Interest shall remain fully subordinated for all purposes to the security interests of certain existing lenders of the Company, until March 31, 2021.

 

The foregoing is a brief description of the Loan and the material terms of the Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is incorporated herein by reference.
