Item 2.03. 
CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT

On March 11, 2010, CAS Medical Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) amended its existing line of credit with NewAlliance Bank (the “Bank”) pursuant to a Third Modification Agreement (the “Third Modification”).  The Third Modification amends the Company’s Commercial Loan Agreement dated February 11, 2008 (the “Loan Agreement”) and related Commercial Revolving Promissory Note (the “Note”), each as previously amended by a Debt Modification Agreement from the Company dated December 31, 2008 (the “First Modification”) and a Second Modification Agreement by and between the Company and the Bank dated April 3, 2009 (the “Second Modification”).

The Third Modification extends the maturity date of the Note from July 1, 2010 to April 1, 2011.  The Third Modification also increases the interest rate for amounts outstanding under the Loan Agreement from (i) the Bank’s Base Rate (as defined in the Second Modification) plus 1.0%, with a minimum interest rate of 4.0% per annum to (ii) the Bank’s Base Rate (as defined in the Third Modification) plus 2.0%, with a minimum interest rate of 5.0% per annum.  Additionally, the Third Modification amends the existing debt service coverage ratio covenant from 1.5 to 1.0 to 1.25 to 1.0, tested beginning March 31, 2010 and quarterly thereafter, measured on a year-to-date basis.  In connection with the Third Modification, the Bank waived the testing of the debt service coverage ratio as of December 31, 2009.

As a condition of the Third Modification, the Company granted the Bank a security interest in the Company’s United States trademarks and patents and applications therefor pursuant to a Trademarks and Letters Patent Security Agreement dated as of March 11, 2010 (the “Trademarks Agreement”).  In connection with the Third Modification, on March 11, 2010 the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Statcorp, Inc. (“Statcorp”) executed a Guaranty in favor of the Bank (the “Guaranty”) guaranteeing the obligations of the Company to the Bank under the Loan Agreement and a Security Agreement (the “Statcorp Security Agreement”) granting the Bank a first priority lien on all business assets of Statcorp.

On March 11, 2010, the Company also amended its existing term note with the Bank pursuant to a Modification and Reaffirmation of Commercial Loan and Security Agreement (the “Term Note Modification”).  The Term Note Modification amends the existing debt service coverage ratio covenant to conform it to the Third Modification debt service coverage ratio covenant.

The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Third Modification, the Trademarks Agreement, the Guaranty, the Statcorp Security Agreement and the Term Note Modification, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.5 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
