Aurora Spine Corporation ("Aurora Spine" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:ASG) (OTCQB:ASAPF) announced today that it has received
loan proceeds of $350,140 (“PPP Loan”) under the Second Draw
Paycheck Protection Program. The Paycheck Protection Program
(“PPP”) was established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and
Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) in order to enable small
businesses to pay employees during the coronavirus crisis and
provides loans to qualifying businesses for up to 2.5 times their
average monthly payroll costs. The amount borrowed under the PPP is
eligible to be forgiven provided that the borrower uses the loan
proceeds during the eight week or 24 week period after receiving
them and provided that the proceeds are used for payroll costs
(including benefits), rent, mortgage interest, utility costs and
worker protection costs related to COVID-19.
Principal and interest payments on any
unforgiven portion of the PPP Loan will be deferred for ten months
and will accrue interest at a fixed annual rate of 1%.
Additionally, the remaining PPP Loan balance will carry a five-year
maturity date. There is no prepayment penalty on the PPP Loan.
