Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On October 15, 2026, Asure Software, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated October 15, 2026, by and among the Company as the Borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Company as Guarantors, MUFG Bank, LTD (“MUFG”), as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto (such lenders collectively with MUFG, the “Lenders”).
Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may borrow up to $115 million from the Lenders (the “Senior Credit Facility”), comprising a (i) $85.0 million (the “Initial Loan Balance”) term loan facility, all of which was drawn by the Company on October 15, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), (ii) $10.0 million five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”), and (iii) $20.0 million delayed-draw term loan facility (the “DDTL Facility”). After the Closing Date, the Company is permitted to incur (a) additional term loans under a new term facility to be included in the Senior Credit Facility and/or (b) increases in the Revolving Credit Facility, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $30 million, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. As of the date hereof, the Company has not drawn any amounts under the Revolving Facility or the DDTL Facility, and no letters of credit have been issued under the Credit Agreement.
The Company will begin to make principal payments on the Initial Loan Balance in quarterly installments beginning on April 1, 2027, such that 2.5% of the Initial Loan Balance will be paid in the first year, 5.0% of the Initial Loan Balance will be paid in each of the second and third year, and 7.5% of the Initial Loan Balance will be paid in each of the fourth and fifth year, with the last payment being made on October 1, 2031, and the remaining Initial Loan Balance paid on the October 15, 2031 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company may, upon notice to MUFG pursuant to the Credit Agreement, voluntarily prepay amounts loaned under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part without premium or penalty, subject to certain conditions set forth therein.
Subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Revolving Facility is available through October 15, 2031 and the DDTL Facility is available through October 15, 2028.
The interest rates that the Company will be charged under the Senior Credit Facility is generally equal to the Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement’) plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or, at the the Company’s option, the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement ) plus the Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate generally adjusts quarterly based on the Company’s Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio. With respect to Term SOFR loans, the Borrower may select interest periods of one, three or six months. For the Initial Loan Balance, the Company selected a three month interest period for Term SOFR. The Initial Loan Balance is a Term SOFR Loan and the interest rate to be charged during the initial three month interest period is 7.04249%, calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed, reflecting a rate based on Term SOFR plus three percent (3.00%), as provided in the Credit Agreement.
The Company is subject to customary events of default as described in the Credit Agreement, including insolvency of the Company, breaches of certain covenants and representations and warranties, and failures to pay. In such event, and for so long as it continues, the outstanding loan balance will bear interest at a rate per annum, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Credit Agreement, (i) equal to two percent (2.00%) in excess of the rate otherwise applicable thereto, and (ii) with respect to any loan for which a rate is not specified or available, a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus (a) the Applicable Rate for revolving loans that are Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus (b) two percent (2.00%), in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Under the Credit Agreement, the Company covenants to maintain a (i) Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), as tested quarterly, no greater than 3.50 to 1.00 (subject to certain conditions set forth therein), and (ii) Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), as tested quarterly, of not less than 1.25 to 1.00. The Senior Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.
The Company will use the net proceeds of the amounts received at Closing to (i) repay all of its obligations under the MC Credit Agreement (as defined below) and Note (as defined below), (ii) for the payment of transaction fees in connection with entry into the Credit Agreement and (iii) Permitted Acquisitions (as defined in the Credit Agreement), including the acquisition of the assets of the SEUS Seller (as defined below) described in Item 8.01. The Company will use the proceeds of any amounts loaned after the closing for the payment of consideration in connection with Permitted Acquisitions and working capital needs.
