Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

​

Amendment to Centurion Commitment Letter

​

On November 23, 2021, Assure Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) entered into an amending agreement (the “Amending Agreement”) to its commitment letter dated March 8, 2021 (the “Commitment Letter”), with Centurion Financial Trust, an investment trust managed by Centurion Asset Management Inc. (“Centurion”) in respect of the Company’s previously disclosed $11,000,000 credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Centurion comprised on a $9,000,000 senior term loan (the “Senior Term Loan”), funded in two tranches of $6,000,000 and $3,000,000, and a $2,000,000 revolving loan (the “Revolving Loan”).  The first tranche of the Senior Term Loan and the Revolving Loan were previously funded in June 2021.  The Credit Facility, including the Commitment Letter and the related Debenture dated June 9, 2021, Guarantee dated June 9, 2021, Security Agreement dated June 9, 2021 and Contract Assignment dated June 9, 2021, were previously described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the Commission on June 16, 2021.

​

The Amending Agreement amended the terms of the second tranche of the Senior Term Loan.  Previously, the Commitment Letter had provided that the Company could only access the second tranche of the Senior Term Loan solely for funding certain acquisition transactions.  As amended, the Company may now access the second tranche of the Senior Term Loan of up to $3,000,000 for growth initiatives and general working capital purposes.  Further, the Amending Agreement clarified the Company’s reporting requirements in relation to the “Borrowing Base” which had previously been left undefined.  Under the Amending Agreement, the Company will (i) continue to provide Centurion monthly financial reporting of its detailed aging account receivable balances along with supporting details, (ii) update the monthly reporting information to include any and all new subsidiaries that are to be formed for the Company’s business to ensure the reports capture all invoicing, billings and collections for the consolidated business for purposes of determining the “Borrowing Base”, and (iii) the “Borrowing Base” covenant, which was previously undefined, is defined as combined advances under the Credit Facility (both tranches combined, “Combined Advances”) are not to exceed the Borrowing Base, which is defined as 75% of accounts receivable under 240 day less priority payables. A monthly Borrowing Base covenant calculation is to be provided to Centurion within 25 days of month end. If for any reason whatsoever, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Combined Advances shall, at any time, exceed the Borrowing Base (any such amount of the excess at any time,  an "Excess Amount"), then promptly on demand from Centurion, the Company shall repay in an amount equal to or greater than the Excess Amount so as to reduce the Excess Amount at the time of repayment to zero.

​

The Amending Agreement also provides for certain conditions precedent, including completion of a concurrent $4,000,000 equity raise, which the Company completed on November 15, 2021 and delivery of additional documentation as requested by Centurion.  The Amending Agreement contains several conditions subsequent including delivery of (i) an updated financial model, (ii) an updated accounts receivable as of November 16, 2021, (iii) an updated organizational chart, (iv) confirmation of additional security registrations and (v) such additional information as Centurion may request in its analysis of the above items.

​

The Amending Agreement provides that each of the Debenture, Guarantee, Security Agreement and Contract Assignment are deemed to have been amended, effective the same date as the Amending Agreement, to the extent necessary to give effects to the amendments in the Amending Agreement, with formal amendments to occur with 90 days of the date of the Amending Agreement or such longer period as the parties may agree.

​

The above summary of the material terms of the Amending Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Amending Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.  

​

Management Private Placement

​

On November 27, 2021, Assure Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) entered into binding securities purchase agreements (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain of its officers, directors, employees and consultants (the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company sold and issued to the Investors an aggregate of

​

​

70,300 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 (“Shares”) at an issue price of $6.19 per Share, for gross proceeds of $435,157 (the “Management Private Placement”). The Shares were issued to the investors for cash pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) and Section 4(a)(2) thereunder pursuant to the representations and warranties of the Investors. The purchase price per Share was determined based on the closing bid price of the Company’s Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market on November 26, 2021, the day immediately preceding the date the Company and the Investors entered into binding agreements in relation to the Management Private Placement.

​

The above summary of the material terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the form of Securities Purchase Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

​

​

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

​

The disclosure set forth in Item 1.01 regarding the Amending Agreement is incorporated herein by reference.  On November 24, 2021, in connection with the Amending Agreement and the satisfaction of the conditions precedent thereunder, the Company drew upon the second tranche of the Senior Term Loan in the full amount of $3,000,000.

​

​

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.

​

The disclosure set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K related to the Management Private Placement is incorporated herein by reference. In connection with the Management Private Placement, the Company issued the Shares to the Investors on November 29, 2021.

​

​

and to the laying of venue in such court. Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. If any party hereto shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

​

7.11Counterparts; Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

​

7.12Severability. If any provision hereof should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) all other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall be liberally construed in order to carry out the intentions of the parties as nearly as may be possible, and (b) the parties shall use their best efforts to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) with valid, legal and enforceable provision(s) which, insofar as practical, implement the purposes of such provision(s) in this Agreement.

​

In the event of any stock split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in shares of Company Common Stock (or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly shares of Company Common Stock), combination or other similar recapitalization or event occurring after the date hereof, each reference in any Transaction Document to a number of shares or a price per share shall be deemed to be amended to appropriately account for such event.
