Note 7 - Loan Payable

In connection with the purchase of our new facility, on November 27, 2018, a wholly-owned subsidiary (the ““mortgagor subsidiary”) of the Company entered into a Fee Mortgage and Security Agreement (the “mortgage agreement”) with Citibank, N.A. (the “mortgagee”). The mortgage agreement provides for a loan of $4.5 million for a term of 10 years, bears a fixed interest rate of 5.09% per annum and requires monthly mortgage payments of principal and interest of $30. Debt issuance costs of $72 are being amortized over the life of the mortgage agreement. The balance of unamortized debt issuance cost was $66 at October 31, 2019. At October 31, 2019, the balance owed by the subsidiary under the mortgage agreement was $4.4 million. The Company’s obligations under the mortgage agreement are secured by the new facility and by a $750 cash collateral deposit with the mortgagee as additional security. This restricted cash is included in other assets as of October 31, 2019.

The mortgage agreement includes affirmative and negative covenants and events of default, as defined. Events of default include non-payment of principal and interest on debt outstanding, non-performance of covenants, material changes in business, breach of representations, bankruptcy or insolvency, and changes in control. The mortgage includes certain financial covenants. As of October 31, 2019, required financial covenants have been met.

We assumed from the seller an operating lease for a current tenant at the facility which may be extended to February 29, 2020. Rental income from the assumed lease is included in other income.

Minimum future annual principal payments under the mortgage agreement as of October 31, 2019, are as follows:
