Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On January 31, 2020, Giga-tronics Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Microsource, Inc. (together, the “Company”) and Partners for Growth V., L.P. (the “Lender”) entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of April 27, 2017, as amended (the “Loan Agreement”). As of January 31, 2020, the Company owed the Lender $825,000 under the Loan Agreement.

The Amendment, among other things, extends the maturity date of the loan from March 1, 2020 to March 1, 2021; requires that the Company make principal payments of $75,000 on February 1, 2020 and $57,700 on the first day of each month thereafter until maturity; provides for an annual interest rate of 16%, of which 9.5% is payable monthly and 6.5% is deferred until maturity or payoff; and adjusts and extends a modified minimum revenue financial covenant through the maturity date. In the Amendment, the Lender waived the Company’s default arising from its failure to comply with the Loan Agreement’s minimum revenue financial covenant for the calendar quarter ended December 31, 2019, which entitled the Lender to declare all outstanding amounts immediately due and payable.
