Convertible Notes and Warrants

 

On July 13, 2023, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “July Purchase Agreement”) whereby the Company agreed to issue and sell to certain investors affiliated with certain directors, officers and beneficial owners of the Company, in a private placement (i) an aggregate principal amount of up to $3.25 million in junior secured convertible promissory notes (the “July Convertible Notes”) and (ii) an aggregate of up to 7,738,094 warrants (the “July Warrants”) to purchase the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.42 per share. All the disinterested directors of the Company’s Board of Directors, as well as the disinterested directors of the Audit Committee, reviewed and approved the terms of the July Purchase Agreement, July Convertible Notes and July Warrants.

 

The July Convertible Notes issued to the non-insider purchaser accrues interest at 7.75% per annum, compounded semi-annually. Effective on the maturity date, if the July Convertible Notes have not otherwise been repaid by the Company, then at the option of the purchasers, the outstanding balance of the July Convertible Notes, including any accrued but unpaid interest thereon (the “July Note Amounts”), shall convert into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Upon the Company’s sale and issuance of equity or equity-linked securities pursuant to which the Company receives aggregate gross proceeds of at least $10.0 million (an “Equity Financing”), the Company shall repay the Note Amounts in cash. In addition, upon a Change of Control (as defined in the July Convertible Notes) of the Company, the July Convertible Notes shall be repaid in full at or before the closing of such transaction in cash. The Convertible Notes are strictly subordinated to the Lind Senior Notes (described below) and are secured by a junior security interest in all the Company’s right, title, and interest in and to all the Company’s assets. The July Convertible Notes mature on July 13, 2024.

 

The July Warrants will expire after 5 years from the date of issuance and the July Warrants issued to the non-insider Purchaser may be exercised on a cashless basis. The July Warrants provide that a holder of July Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its July Warrants, if such holder, together with its affiliates, and any other party whose holdings would be aggregated with those of the holder for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act would beneficially own in excess of 4.99%, of the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that each holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation by giving notice to the Company, with any such increase not taking effect until the sixty-first day after such notice is delivered to the Company but not to any percentage in excess of 9.99%; provided that any holder of the July Warrants that beneficially owns in excess of 19.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the issuance date of the July Warrants shall not be subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The July Convertible Notes and the July Warrants were issued by the Company in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The July Purchase Agreement provides for customary shelf registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the July Convertible Notes and July Warrants.

 

On July 13, 2023, the Company used proceeds from the July Convertible Notes and the Lind Financing (as described below) to repay the Lenders and the JGB Loan Agreement was thereby terminated upon the receipt by the Lenders of a payoff amount of $4,318,444.46 which included the outstanding principal balance due under the JGB Loan Agreement, accrued but unpaid interest thereon and Lenders’ and Agent’s legal fees and other expenses. The payoff amount paid by the Company in connection with the termination of the JGB Loan Agreement was made pursuant to a payoff letter. As a result, the JGB Loan Agreement, together with all documents and agreements executed in connection therewith, have terminated and all liens associated therewith have been released, subject to the Company continuing to be bound by certain terms under the JGB Loan Agreement that customarily survive the termination of similar agreements, including, without limitation, certain indemnification obligations and the terms of the warrants previously issued to the Lenders.

 

Lind Financing

 

On July 14, 2023 (the “Initial Lind Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Lind Purchase Agreement”) with Lind Global Partners II, L.P. (“Lind”) and one other external investor. The agreement provides for loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million under various tranches. On the Initial Lind Closing Date, the Company received funding in the amount of $3.75 million and pursuant to the terms of the Lind Purchase Agreement, Lind agreed to fund an additional $1.0 million within 5 business days of the Company (i) having a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) declared effective by the SEC for the registration of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Lind Note (as defined below) and Lind Warrant (as defined below) and (ii) the receipt of Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Lind Purchase Agreement), if necessary. In consideration for the $4.75 million, the Company issued and sold to Lind, in a private placement, (a) a senior secured convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $5,367,500 (the “Lind Note”) and (b) 12,837,838 warrants (the “Lind Warrant”) to purchase the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share.

 

At any time while the Lind Note is outstanding, the Company may deliver a written notice requesting an increase in the amount of funding equal to no less than $1.0 million and shall not exceed $5.25 million. Lind shall, within 7 business days of receiving the notice give a written response to the Company stating that Lind has elected (in its sole and absolute discretion) to (i) advance the full requested amount, (ii) advance an amount less than the full requested amount or (iii) not advance any of the requested amount. In addition, Lind may, in its sole discretion and without any action by the Company, deliver written notice to the Company of its election to advance up to an aggregate of $2.0 million of increased funding to the Company.

 

The Lind Note was issued at a discount and matures on July 14, 2024. Following the date that is sixty (60) days after the earlier to occur of (A) the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC or (B) the date that any shares issued pursuant to the Lind Note may be immediately resold under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, the Company may repay all, but not less than all, of the then outstanding principal amount of the Lind Note, subject to a 5% premium. If the Company elects to prepay the Lind Note, Lind has the right to convert up to 33 1/3% of the principal amount of the Lind Note at the Conversion Price (as defined in the Lind Note) into shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Lind Note is convertible, at the option of Lind, into shares of the Company’s common stock at price per share equal to the lower of $0.50 or 90% of the average of the 3 lowest daily VWAPs during the 20 Trading Days (as defined in the Lind Note) prior to conversion.

 

As collateral for the obligations under the Lind Purchase Agreement, the Company has granted to Lind a senior security interest in all of Company’s right, title, and interest in, to and under all of Company’s property (inclusive of intellectual property), subject to certain exceptions.

 

The Lind Warrant expires 5 years from the date of issuance and may be exercised on a cashless basis. The Lind Warrant provides that Lind will not have the right to exercise any portion of the warrant, if, together with its affiliates, and any other party whose holdings would be aggregated with those of the holder for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99%, of the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall automatically increase to 9.99% if Lind, together with its affiliates, owns in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. The note and the warrant were issued by the Company in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act.

 

The Lind Warrant provides for customary shelf and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Lind Note and the Lind Warrant.

On July 14, 2023, in consideration for its services in respect of the Lind Financing described above, the Company also issued to Titan Partners Group LLC, a division of American Partners, LLC (the “Placement Agent”) warrants to purchase 536,570 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price per share of $0.625 (the “Placement Agent Warrant”). The Placement Agent Warrant has a 5-year term. In addition, the Company paid the Placement Agent a commission of $285,000. The Placement Agent Warrant also provides for customary demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Placement Agent Warrant.
