Item 2.03

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

 

On May 8, 2019, an existing investor of Bionik Laboratories Corp. (the “Company”), who is an affiliate of Andre-Jacques Auberton-Herve, the Chairman of the Board of the Company, loaned $500,000 (the “$500K Loan”) to the Company evidenced by a promissory note, dated May 8, 2019 (the “$500K Note”). The $500K Note bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.0% per month, beginning on the Issue Date (as defined in the $500K Note). Interest will be computed based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and will be payable, along with the principal amount, on the earlier of: (i) May 8, 2021, (ii) the date of receipt of an aggregate of $10,000,000 in gross proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Company’s securities subsequent to the Issue Date, or (iii) upon a Change in Control (as defined in the $500K Note). The $500K Note contains customary events of default, which, if uncured, entitle the holder of the $500K Note to accelerate the due date of the unpaid principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the $500K Note. The foregoing is a brief description of the terms of the $500K Note and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the $500K Note, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the $500K Loan for the Company’s working capital and general corporate purposes.
