Item 8.01   Other Events.
 
American Shared Hospital Services (the “Company”) is a party to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of April 9, 2021 (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), between Fifth Third Bank, National Association (the “Lender”), on the one hand, and the Company, PBRT Orlando, LLC (“PBRT”), GK Financing, LLC (“GKF,” together with the Company and PBRT, the “Borrowers”), and American Shared Radiosurgery Services (together with the Borrowers, the “Loan Parties”), on the other hand. Capitalized terms that are used but not defined in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Form 8-K”) have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lender made a Revolving Loan Commitment to make Revolving Loan Advances to the Borrowers under a $7,000,000 revolving loan of credit in addition to lending the Borrowers certain supplemental term loans.
 
On December 10, 2025, the Loan Parties received a notice from the Lender (i) asserting that an Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement due to the Borrowers’ failure to maintain minimum unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents of at least an aggregate of $5,000,000 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2025 (the “Specified Event of Default”), and (ii) informing the Loan Parties that the Lender has suspended the Revolving Loan Commitment with respect to additional Revolving Loan Advances (the “Notice”). In addition to confirming that the Lender has not waived the Specified Event of Default or any other Event of Default, the Notice reserves all of the Lender’s other rights, powers, privileges, and remedies under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, applicable law, and otherwise with respect to any Event of Default, including but not limited to the Lender’s right to accelerate the Borrowers’ payment obligations in respect of all Advances and other Obligations owing under the Credit Agreement and to repossess, liquidate, or take any other action with respect to any or all Collateral. Furthermore, the Notice serves as a demand for certain attorney’s fees incurred by the Lender to be paid by the Loan Parties not later than December 15, 2025.
 
As of the date of this Form 8-K, the Lender has not accelerated the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents. The Loan Parties are reviewing and evaluating the Notice and the matters described therein, including any impact on the financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2025. The Loan Parties are also evaluating the implications of the asserted Specified Event of Default and the suspension of the Revolving Loan Commitment on the Borrowers’ liquidity, financial conditions, and operations, and whether it could adversely affect the Loan Parties under their other credit arrangements and facilities. The Company is currently in discussions with Fifth Third regarding a waiver and an amendment to the Credit Agreement. However, there can be no assurances regarding the outcome of such discussions.
