2020 Secured Notes

 

On January 29, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed a financing transaction (the “2020 Financing Transaction”) with two investors (the “2020 Convertible Noteholders”), whereby the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $17,500,000 of the 2020 Secured Notes pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) dated January 11, 2020. Unless earlier converted or redeemed, the 2020 Secured Notes will mature on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, and bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the three (3)-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and (y) two percent (2%), plus (ii) a margin of 2% on the outstanding balance of the 2020 Secured Notes, payable quarterly on the first business day of each calendar quarter. The 2020 Secured Notes may not be pre-paid without the consent of the noteholder, provided that the Company must offer to pre-pay such other noteholder on the same terms and conditions. Prior to maturity, the 2020 Convertible Noteholders will have the right to convert all or any portion of the outstanding balance of their notes, including any accrued but unpaid interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $6.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the 2020 Secured Notes. The 2020 Secured Notes are secured by all the assets of the Company.

 

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the SPA, at any time on or prior to January 11, 2022, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to request that one of the 2020 Convertible Noteholders purchase an additional $5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Second Closing Notes (as defined in the SPA) and an additional $10,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of additional Third Closing Notes (as defined in the SPA) (together, the “Additional Convertible Notes”), provided that such 2020 Convertible Noteholder has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase such notes. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had made no requests of the 2020 Convertible Noteholder to purchase any of the Additional Convertible Notes. The terms of the Additional Convertible Notes are the same as the terms of the 2020 Secured Notes, except that: (a) the Additional Convertible Notes would bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (i) the greater of (x) the three (3)-month LIBOR and (y) 2%, plus (ii) a margin of 7% on their outstanding balance; and (b) only 70% of the Additional Convertible Notes’ principal amount outstanding would be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

The carrying amount of the 2020 Secured Notes in the accompanying June 30, 2020 condensed consolidated balance sheet is presented net of: (a) financing costs, comprised of commissions and legal expenses, having an unamortized balance of $408,631; and (b) a discount, comprised of a commitment fee paid to one of the 2020 Convertible Noteholders, having an unamortized balance amounting to $277,270 at that date. The unamortized balance of the financing costs and the discount are charged to interest expense over the term of the 2020 Secured Notes under the effective interest method. 

 

An executive officer of one of the 2020 Convertible Noteholders is a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, and, pursuant to the terms of the SPA and a Board Observer Agreement entered into by the other 2020 Convertible Noteholder and the Company, the other 2020 Convertible Noteholder appointed an individual to attend and observe meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

On January 27, 2020, as a condition to completion of the 2020 Financing Transaction, the Company entered into the Fourth Omnibus Amendment to the 2010 Secured Notes, whereby the 2010 Secured Notes were subordinated to the Company’s obligations under the terms of the 2020 Secured Notes and the Additional Convertible Notes, as applicable. During its first fiscal quarter of 2020, the Company repaid in full the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2010 Secured Notes, amounting to approximately $2.8 million, which, along with the Company’s payment of accrued interest amounting to approximately $920,000, resulted in the full retirement of the 2010 Secured Notes.

 

Payroll Protection Program Loan

 

In April 2020, the Company received $896,000 in proceeds through an unsecured loan funded under the Payroll Protection Program as part of the CARES Act, which was enacted by the U.S. Congress in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The loan has a two-year term, bears an interest at rate of 1% per annum, and is payable monthly from November 2020 through the remainder of the note’s term in equal monthly installments of principal and interest amounting to $50,424.18. Management’s plan during the period in which the Company is affected by the COVID-19 pandemic is to retain its employee base and, pending the ultimate duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and by using the funds for the purposes described under the terms of the loan, consider whether to repay the loan in conformity with its terms or request that all or a portion of the loan, as applicable under its terms, be ultimately forgiven. However, there is no assurance that the Company would be successful in obtaining such forgiveness.

 

2010 Secured Notes

 

The indebtedness outstanding under the 2010 Secured Notes at December 31, 2019 was $2.8 million. As discussed above, during the first fiscal quarter of 2020, the Company repaid in full the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2010 Secured Notes, together with accrued interest. The Company’s Chairman of its Board of Directors and one of the Company’s officers held 2010 Secured Notes purchased at the date of original issuance having an aggregate principal balance of $197,000.

 

The carrying amount of the 2010 Secured Notes in the accompanying December 31, 2019 condensed consolidated balance sheet is presented net of a discount, having an unamortized balance amounting to $765,073 at that date, arising from shares issued to the noteholders at issuance of the 2010 Secured Notes. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the unamortized balance of this discount was charged to interest expense upon the Company’s repayment of the 2010 Secured Notes.
