Secured Convertible Notes — On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with High Trail Investments ON LLC and an affiliated institutional investor (together, the "Investors") pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell in an offering up to $105 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured convertible notes (the "Secured Convertible Notes"). On August 14, 2023, the Company issued $70 million aggregate principal amount of Secured Convertible Notes to the Investors. In addition, the Company granted the Investors the right to purchase up to an additional $35 million aggregate principal amount of the Secured Convertible Notes so long as the notice to exercise such option was provided no later than August 14, 2024. The Secured Convertible Notes bore interest at 6.00% per annum, payable quarterly in cash on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on October 1, 2023, and would mature on August 1, 2026. The Secured Convertible Notes included covenants requiring the Company to, among others things, maintain minimum levels of quarterly revenue through the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The Company was not in compliance with the minimum revenue covenant for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.
Beginning on January 1, 2024, the Investors had the option to require the Company to repay principal on the Secured Convertible Notes quarterly pursuant to the terms of the Secured Convertible Notes at a repayment price equal to 115% of the Secured Convertible Notes principal balance repaid plus accrued interest. The repayments were calculated at a rate of 12.5% of 115% of the principal balance and would reduce the principal balance of the Secured Convertible Notes by the amount repaid divided by a rate of 1.15. The end of term maturity balance was the principal balance of the Secured Convertible Notes multiplied by 115% (the "Secured Convertible Notes Maturity Balance"). The Secured Convertible Notes were convertible based on a conversion rate of 644.7453 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Secured Convertible Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $1.55 per share of the Common Stock).
The Company used approximately $22.4 million of the net proceeds from the offering of the Secured Convertible Notes to repay all $21.9 million of outstanding principal and $0.3 million of accrued interest under the Company’s Revolving Credit Line and Equipment Loan which resulted in a loss of $0.2 million expensed within “Loss on debt extinguishment”.
The Company incurred deferred financing costs of $4.1 million related to the Secured Convertible Notes, which were capitalized upon issuance and were being accreted over the term of the Secured Convertible Notes using the effective interest rate method with $0.6 million included in “Interest expense” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the year ended December 31, 2023. The unamortized deferred financing costs of $3.5 million, were expensed within "Loss on debt extinguishment" upon the cancellation and exchange of the Secured Convertible Notes for the Secured Notes.
Additionally, the Company was capitalizing discounts of $24.4 million against the carrying value of the Secured Convertible Notes and amortizing the discounts over the term of the Secured Convertible Notes using the effective interest rate method. The $24.4 million discount included $13.9 million related to debt derivatives, $10.5 million related to the Secured Convertible Notes Maturity Balance, with $4.7 million amortized interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2023. The unamortized discount was $19.7 million, was expensed within "Loss on debt extinguishment" upon the extinguishment and termination of the Secured Convertible Notes.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had no outstanding balance, no unamortized discount, or unamortized deferred loan fees due to the cancellation of the Secured Convertible Notes in connection with the issuance of the Secured Notes. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company had paid $1.9 million in interest and incurred a total of $7.2 million in interest expense related to the Secured Convertible Notes. The effective interest rate was 41.1% for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Secured Notes — On November 27, 2023, the Company entered into the Securities Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with the Investors, pursuant to which the Company made a cash payment to the Investors of $16.3 million to repay $12.5 million of aggregate principal amount of the Secured Convertible Notes, together with $1.3 million of accrued and unpaid interest. The remaining Secured Convertible Notes were exchanged for $57.5 million aggregate principal amount of new senior secured notes due 2026 (the "Secured Notes") and 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock with a fair market value of $9.4 million at issuance. The remaining Secured Convertible Notes Maturity Balance of $8.0 million was recognized as a gain within “Loss on debt extinguishment” and was partially offset by $0.2 million of financing costs paid to the Investors. The Secured Notes included covenants requiring the Company to maintain a minimum of $35 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and to maintain minimum levels of available cash, calculated monthly based on a rolling three-month lookback period beginning with the three-month period ending on December 31, 2023.
On December 27, 2023, the Company entered into a note amendment to its Secured Notes with the Investors, pursuant to which the Company made a cash payment to the note holders of $25.0 million to repay approximately $20.8 million of aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest. The amendment was determined to be a modification of the Secured Notes. The amended Secured Notes eliminated the requirement to pay a principal amount of Secured Notes on January 1, 2024, eliminated the requirement to maintain a minimum of $35.0 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and deferred the requirement to, on or before December 31, 2023, establish a new “at-the-market” offering program (or increase the Company’s existing “at-the-market” offering program) with aggregate available, accessible and unused capacity to generate gross proceeds to the Company of at least $75.0 million as of December 31, 2023 to January 31, 2024.
The Secured Notes contain customary affirmative and negative covenants (including covenants that limit the Company’s ability to incur debt, make investments, transfer assets, engage in certain transactions with affiliates and merge with other companies). Additionally, as noted above, the Secured Notes require the Company maintain available cash on a quarterly basis, adjusted for certain financing activity as defined in the Secured Notes, in excess of required minimum balances as defined in the Secured Notes. Furthermore, if an event of default occurs, the holders of the Secured Notes may declare the Secured Notes due and payable for cash in an amount equal to the Event of Default Acceleration Amount as defined in the Secured Notes. If an event of default occurs and the
Company fails to pay the Event of Default Acceleration Amount when due in accordance with the Secured Notes, then the holders may elect to receive such unpaid portion of the Event of Default Acceleration Amount, entirely or partially, in shares of Common Stock calculated based on dividing Event of Default Acceleration Amount by the lowest of the 10 daily volume weighted average prices of the Common Stock immediately prior to the applicable event of default stock payment date.
The Secured Notes bear interest at 6.00% per annum, payable quarterly in cash on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on January 1, 2024, and will mature on August 1, 2026. When the Company repays principal on the Secured Notes pursuant to the terms of the Secured Notes, it will be required to pay 120% of the principal amount repaid (the “Repayment Price”) plus accrued and unpaid interest.
On the first day of each three-month period beginning on April 1, 2024 (a “Partial Redemption Date”), the Company will redeem a portion of the principal amount of the Secured Notes at the Repayment Price plus accrued and unpaid interest, unless the Investors cancel such redemption. The aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes that will be redeemable on a Partial Redemption Date will be $8,750,000 for a Repayment Price of $10,500,000.
The Secured Notes include terms that provide the Investors seniority over other unsecured obligations in any settlement negotiations in the event of liquidation. Additionally, the Secured Notes contain redemption features in the event of default or a fundamental change in control that would make the Secured Notes immediately callable at a predetermined rate as described in the Secured Notes. The redemption features are settled in cash. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has not included the effect of an event of default or the effect of a fundamental change in control in the valuation of the Secured Notes, as the Company believes the likelihood of these occurring to be remote. The Company will continue to monitor the likelihood of these events in future reporting periods.
The Company incurred deferred financing costs of $0.4 million related to the Secured Notes, which were capitalized upon issuance and are being accreted over the term of the Secured Notes using the effective interest rate method and are included in “Interest expense” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). As of December 31, 2023, the remaining unamortized balance of deferred financing costs was $0.4 million and were included in Debt — current portion on the balance sheets.
Additionally, the Company is accreting discounts of $11.5 million and capitalizing to the carrying value of the Secured Notes over the term of the Secured Notes using the effective interest rate method with $1.2 million amortized to interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the unamortized discount was $10.3 million, which includes the difference between the principal and the Repayment Price, and capitalized deferred financing costs. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company paid $0.4 million in interest and incurred a total of $1.6 million in interest expense related to the Secured Notes.
