PR Newswire (US)
ADDISON, Texas, July 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ULURU Inc. (NYSE
Amex: ULU) ("the Company") today announced that it has collected
$1,024,544 which represents all of the accrued and unpaid principal
and interest associated with the Promissory Note ("Note Agreement")
between the Company and York Pharma, plc ("York"). In order to
consummate the remittance, on July 22, 2009, the Company entered
into a Forbearance Agreement where the Company agreed, in exchange
for a payment of $250,000, to forbear for a period of no more than
seven days from exercising its rights and remedies under the Note
Agreement and certain related loan documents. The payment received
from York was applied first to unpaid interest and then the
remainder to reduce the aggregate principal amount owed to the
Company. Accordingly, the aggregate principal amount payable to the
Company was reduced to $774,246. The Forbearance Agreement provided
that the remaining principal would accrue interest at an increased
rate of 14% per annum. On July 24, 2009, the Company assigned all
of its interest in and to its rights, benefits and obligations
under the Note Agreement to an unrelated third party in exchange
for a cash payment of $774,246 plus all accrued but unpaid
interest. As a result of such assignment, the Company no longer has
any interest in the Loan Documents. Renaat Van den Hooff, President
& CEO of ULURU Inc., commented: "We are very pleased that we've
