Item 8.01.  Other Events.

 

On November 20, 2018, we borrowed $10.0 million under our $100.0 million secured revolving credit facility, or our credit facility. In connection with this borrowing, at the request of the lenders under our credit facility, on November 15, 2018 we obtained a waiver from such lenders of a condition to this borrowing requiring us to represent that, since December 31, 2015, there has been no material adverse change, as defined in the agreement governing our credit facility, or our credit agreement. The lenders’ request for this waiver was in response to certain disclosures included in our earnings press release and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2018, that certain challenges we are facing which are currently negatively impacting our revenues, expenses, cash flows and results from operations and are expected to continue at least through 2019, have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We agreed to obtain this waiver in order to facilitate the borrowing described herein.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the condition that has been waived and our credit agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of our credit agreement, a copy of which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 10.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 24, 2017.
