Item 1.01 Entry into A Material Definitive Agreement.





PPP Loan


On May 6, 2020, TearLab Corp. (the "Company") entered into a loan agreement to receive funding under a United States Small Business Administration ("SBA") loan (the "PPP Loan") from a commercial bank under the SBA's Payroll Protection Program ("PPP"). The Company received the funds on May 7, 2020. The principal loan amount is $801,030.

The PPP Loan has a two-year term, maturing on May 6, 2022. The interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.0% per annum. Principal and interest are payable in monthly installments, beginning six months after the date of disbursement, until maturity with respect to any portion of the PPP Loan which is not forgiven as described below. The Company did not provide any collateral or guarantees for the PPP Loan, nor did the Company pay any facility charge to obtain the PPP Loan. The PPP Loan provides for customary events of default, including, among others, those relating to failure to make payment, bankruptcy, breaches of representations and material adverse effects. The Company is permitted to prepay or partially prepay the PPP Loan at any time with no prepayment penalties.

The PPP Loan may be partially or fully forgiven if the Company complies with the provisions of the CARES Act, including the use of PPP Loan proceeds for payroll costs, rent, utilities and other expenses. The PPP Loan is forgivable in its entirety if the Company supplies verifying documentation that it has used 75% of the PPP Loan proceeds for covered payroll costs and not more than 25% of the PPP Loan proceeds for SBA approved non-payroll costs incurred before February 15, 2020, over the eight week period from the date of disbursement of the loan.

The foregoing description of the PPP Loan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the PPP Loan agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
