The September 7, 2026 Letter Agreement was funded on or about September 9, 2026.
On September 10, 2026, the Company, through its subsidiaries, entered into a letter agreement (the “September 10, 2026 Letter Agreement”) with Hazel, in its capacity as administrative agent and lender under the Company’s existing working capital credit facility, for Hazel to provide funding of $0.03 million. The September 10, 2026 Letter Agreement was funded on or about September 10, 2026.
On September 18, 2026, the Company, through its subsidiaries, entered into a letter agreement (the “September 18, 2026 Letter Agreement”) with Hazel, in its capacity as administrative agent and lender under the Company’s existing working capital credit facility, for Hazel to provide funding of $0.11 million.

The September 24, 2026 Letter Agreement was funded on or about September 24, 2026.
On September 25, 2026, the Company, through its subsidiaries, entered into a letter agreement (the “September 25, 2026 Letter Agreement”) with Hazel, in its capacity as administrative agent and lender under the Company’s existing working capital credit facility, for Hazel to provide funding of $0.04 million. The September 25, 2026 Letter Agreement was funded on or about September 25, 2026.
On September 29, 2026, the Company, through its subsidiaries, entered into a letter agreement (the “September 29, 2026 Letter Agreement,” and collectively with the September 2, 2026 Letter Agreement, the September 7, 2026 Letter Agreement, the September 10, 2026 Letter Agreement, the September 18, 2026 Letter Agreement, the September 24, 2026 Letter Agreement, and the September 25, 2026 Letter Agreement, the “Hazel Letter Agreements”) with Hazel, in its capacity as administrative agent and lender under the Company’s existing working capital credit facility, for Hazel to provide funding of $0.04 million. The September 29, 2026 Letter Agreement was funded on or about September 29, 2026.
Pursuant to the Hazel Letter Agreements, Hazel has agreed, in its sole discretion, to make these six one-time advances (the “Advances”) to increase the Operational Collection Floor beyond the previously disclosed level. Each of the Hazel Letter Agreements stipulates that the proceeds advanced are to be used solely as approved by the majority of the Borrower’s Operating Committee members, and each were funded subject to the conditions set forth in the Hazel Letter Agreements and the underlying credit agreement, including the absence of any event of default or default at the time of funding.
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 (the “Q3-2025 Form 10-Q”), the Company is party to a working capital credit facility with Hazel (the “Working Capital Credit Facility”), which includes a discretionary funding mechanism referred to as the Operational Collection Floor. Advances under the Operational Collection Floor are made solely at Hazel’s discretion, are not subject to any commitment or minimum availability, and are conditioned on the satisfaction or waiver of applicable conditions under the governing credit documentation. The Working Capital Credit Facility does not provide the Company with committed liquidity, does not establish a borrowing base, and does not obligate Hazel to fund any amounts.
As of the filing of the Q3-2025 Form 10-Q, the Company disclosed that aggregate advances under the Operational Collection Floor had reached approximately $6.0 million, and that no remaining funding capacity was available under the facility at that time.
The Advances are standalone accommodations, and do not reinstate, replenish, or otherwise reopen availability under the Working Capital Credit Facility or the Operational Collection Floor. Other than these specific advances, no additional funding is currently available to the Company under the Working Capital Credit Facility, and the Company has no rights to, and no reasonable basis to expect, any further advances thereunder. The Hazel Letter Agreements do not modify the discretionary nature of the facility, do not create any commitment for future funding, and do not provide the Company with access to ongoing or recurring liquidity.
| 1 |
The Company cautions that the receipt of the Advances should not be viewed as indicative of Hazel’s willingness to provide future funding, the availability of additional liquidity, or the Company’s ability to meet its operating or debt service obligations beyond the funding of this specific amount.
The foregoing description of the Hazel Letter Agreements does not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Hazel Letter Agreements, copies of which are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
