On April 20, 2020, Apex Global Brands Inc. (the “Company”) received loan proceeds of $0.7 million through the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act.

The loan, which was in the form of a promissory note, dated April 14, 2020, between the Company and Bank of America as the lender, matures on April 20, 2022 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.0% per annum, payable monthly commencing in six months.  Under the terms of the PPP loan, the principal, or a portion of the principal, may be forgiven if the loan proceeds are used for certain expenses as described in the CARES Act, such as payroll costs, employee benefits, rent, utilities and interest.

The description of the PPP loan set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K is intended to be a summary and does not purport to be complete.  As a result, such description is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the applicable document, which will be filed as an exhibit to our next periodic filing.
