On January 29, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed a financing transaction (the “2020 Financing Transaction”) with the 2020 Convertible Noteholders, whereby the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $17,500,000 of the First Closing Notes pursuant to the SPA dated January 11, 2020. Unless earlier converted or redeemed, the First Closing 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 (a) the three (3)-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and (b) two percent (2%), plus (ii) a margin of 2% on the outstanding balance of the First Closing Notes, payable quarterly on the first business day of each calendar quarter. The First Closing Notes may be converted at a price of $6.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the SPA, and 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.

 

At the Closing Date, the SPA gave the Company the right, but not the obligation, to request at any time on or prior to January 11, 2022, that one of the 2020 Convertible Noteholders purchase an additional $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Second Closing Note and an additional $10.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Third Closing Note (as defined in the SPA; together, with the Second Closing Note, the “Additional Convertible Notes”), provided that such 2020 Convertible Noteholder has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase such notes. The Additional Convertible Notes would also mature on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date.

 

On December 29, 2020, the Company and the 2020 Convertible Noteholders entered into an amendment to the SPA (the “Amendment”), the terms of which, among other provisions, provided for: (a) an increase in the principal amount of the Second Closing Note to $7.5 million; (b) a revision of the interest rate to be borne by the Second Closing Note to consist of: (i) cash interest of 2% per annum, payable quarterly; and (ii) payment-in-kind interest of 5% per annum, accruable quarterly as an addition to the unpaid principal balance of the Second Closing Note; and (c) an increase in the conversion price of the Second Closing Notes to $10.14 per share, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the SPA. Upon execution of the Amendment, the Company issued the Second Closing Note.

 

The aggregate carrying amount of the First Closing Notes in the accompanying March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 condensed consolidated balance sheets is presented net of: (a) financing costs, comprised of commissions and legal expenses, having an unamortized balance of $0.3 million and $0.4 million at those respective dates; and (b) a discount, comprised of a commitment fee paid to one of the 2020 Convertible Noteholders, having an unamortized balance amounting to $0.2 million at each of those respective dates. The unamortized balance of the financing costs and the discount are charged to interest expense over the term of the First Closing Notes under the effective interest method.

 

The carrying amount of the Second Closing Note in the accompanying December 31, 2020 consolidated balance sheet is presented net of a discount, amounting to approximately $3.1 million at December 31, 2020, and representing the value of the deemed beneficial conversion feature embedded in the Second Closing Note. A beneficial conversion feature is deemed to be beneficial when the conversion price, discussed above, is lower than the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock, which was $14.34 on the date of issuance of the Second Closing Note. Under GAAP in existence at the date of issuance of the Second Closing Note, the resulting discount was calculated as the product of (i) the number of shares into which the Second Closing Note could be converted, multiplied by (ii) the difference between the closing price per share and the conversion price. Upon recordation of the discount, a corresponding amount was added to additional paid-in capital. As discussed in Note 2, effective January 1, 2021, the Company adopted the provisions of the ASU that no longer required such beneficial conversion features to be separately accounted for as previously described in this paragraph. As a result, the accompanying March 31, 2021 condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects the elimination of both the discount and the corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital previously described in this paragraph.

 

Under the terms of the SPA, as amended, the Company retains the right, but not the obligation, to request the 2020 Convertible Noteholder to purchase the Third Closing Note, and the 2020 Convertible Noteholder has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase such note. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had not made such a request.

 

The 2020 Secured Notes are secured by all the assets of the Company.

 

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 a representative to attend and observe meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors. On February 25, 2021, such 2020 Convertible Noteholder terminated the Board Observer Agreement, thus precluding its representative from attending future 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 notes 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 the three months ended March 31, 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 $0.9 million, resulted in the full retirement of the 2010 Secured Notes.
