Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 15, 2021, SINTX Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) received funding under the Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) Second Draw Program under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) (the “PPP Loan”) from First State Community Bank (the “Lender”). The principal amount of the PPP Loan is $509,148.00. The PPP was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The PPP Loan has a five-year term, maturing on March 15, 2026. The interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.0% per annum.

The Company will not be obligated to make any payments of principal or interest if the Company submits a loan forgiveness application to the Bank within 10 months after the end of the Company’s covered loan forgiveness period (as defined and interpreted by the PPP Rules) and such loan forgiveness is allowed. Generally, all or a portion of the PPP Loan may be forgiven if the Company maintains its employment and compensation within certain parameters during the twenty-four (24) week period following the loan origination date and the proceeds of the PPP Loan are spent on payroll costs, rent or lease agreements dated before February 15, 2020 and utility payments arising under service agreements dated before February 15, 2020.

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