The agreement, which has a maturity of 2022, has seen certain undisclosed financial covenants deferred by twelve months to that of June 30, 2021, giving the company greater financial flexibility. Further, repayments of the principal have been further delayed, with the repayments now not commencing until the first quarter of 2021, with payments to occur on a quarterly basis.
