2010, 2011 & 2012 Private Placement Transactions
During 2010, 2011 and 2012 we entered into a series of Note and Warrant Purchase Agreements as described in detail below. On September 26, 2010, the Company’s Board approved an approximate aggregate offering amount of $3 million in secured convertible promissory notes (the “October 2010 Notes”) to be issued by January 31, 2011, including for the exchange of Bridge Notes and Deerwood Notes (as defined below) and interest on those notes. October 2010 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $3,023,900 and warrants to purchase 520,666 (ratchet and reverse split adjusted) shares of common stock were issued by November 12, 2010. On November 23, 2010 the Company’s Board approved an approximate aggregate offering amount of $5 million in subordinated convertible promissory notes (the “January 2011 Notes”) to be issued by July 31, 2011. From January 20, 2011 through April 25, 2011, the Company issued January 2011 Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $2,500,000 and warrants to purchase 446,675 (ratchet and reverse split adjusted) shares of common stock.
On September 30, 2011 the Company’s Board approved an approximate aggregate offering amount of $2 million in subordinated convertible promissory notes (the “October 2011 Notes”) to be issued by April 1, 2012. From October 18, 2011 through January 31, 2012, the Company issued October 2011 Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000 and warrants to purchase 687,174 shares of common stock.
On February 29, 2012, the Company raised $90,000 through the sale of a subordinated unsecured convertible bridge note (the “Unsecured Note”) and a warrant to purchase 30,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. The terms of the February Note and warrant are substantially similar to the October 2011 Notes and warrants except that the February Note is not secured.
From August 17, 2012 through September 30, 2012, the Company issued August 2012 Bridge Notes (August 2012 Notes) in an aggregate principal amount of $400,000 as part of a $2 million bridge financing. No warrants were issued in conjunction with these notes. Furthermore $1,900 of these notes were converted into 40,000 shares of common stock prior to September 30, 2012 leaving an aggregate net $398,100 of convertible promissory August 2012 Bridge Notes outstanding.
The securities issued under the 2010, 2011 and 2012 Note and Warrant Purchase Agreements through September 30, 2012 are summarized in the following table and notes:
On October 1, 2010, we entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “October Purchase Agreement”) with Mr. Pappajohn, pursuant to which we issued to Mr. Pappajohn October 2010 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $761,700 and warrants to purchase up to 126,949 shares of common stock. The Company received $250,000 in gross proceeds from the issuance of October 2010 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000 and related warrants to purchase up to 41,667 shares. We also issued October 2010 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $511,700, and related warrants to purchase up to 85,282 shares, to Mr. Pappajohn in exchange for the cancellation of the two Bridge Notes originally issued to him on June 3, 2010 and July 25, 2010 in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 (and accrued and unpaid interest on those notes) and a warrant to purchase up to 8,334 shares originally issued to him on July 25, 2010. The transaction closed on October 1, 2010.
On October 18, 2011, the Company entered into a new note and warrant purchase agreement in connection with a $2 million bridge financing (the “2011 Bridge Financing”), with Mr. Pappajohn. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company issued subordinated secured convertible notes (the “2011 Bridge Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000 and warrants to purchase 83,334 shares of common stock to Mr. Pappajohn for gross proceeds to the Company of $250,000. The new note and warrant purchase agreement initially provided for the issuance and sale of October 2011 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of up to $2,000,000, and warrants to purchase a number of shares corresponding to 50% of the number of shares issuable on conversion of the 2011 Bridge Notes, in one or multiple closings to occur no later than April 1, 2012. On November 11, 2011, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “2011 Bridge Financing Purchase Agreement”) in connection with the Bridge Financing, which amended and restated the October agreement in that it increased the warrant coverage from 50% to 100%. In addition, each holder’s option to redeem or convert their 2011 Bridge Note at the closing of the Qualified Offering (defined below) can now only be amended, waived or modified with the consent of the Company and that holder.
On each of November 10, 2011 and December 27, 2011, the Company issued a 2011 Bridge Note in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000 and warrants to purchase 83,334 shares of common stock to Mr. Pappajohn for gross proceeds to the Company of $250,000. The combined aggregate amount for these two 2011 Bridge Financings was $500,000 and warrants to purchase 166,668 shares of common stock for gross proceeds to the Company of $500,000.
On July 5, 2010 and August 20, 2010, we issued unsecured promissory notes (each, a “Deerwood Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 to Deerwood Partners LLC and Deerwood Holdings LLC, with each investor purchasing two notes in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000. The Deerwood Notes were to mature on December 15, 2010. We received $250,000 in gross proceeds from the issuance of the first two notes on July 5, 2010 and another $250,000 in gross proceeds from the issuance of the second two notes on August 20, 2010. In connection with the August 20, 2010 transaction, each of the two investors also received a warrant to purchase up to 2,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price (subject to anti-dilution adjustments, including for issuances of securities at prices below the then-effective exercise price) of $16.80 per share.
SAIL Venture Partners L.P. (“SAIL”) issued unconditional guaranties to each of the Deerwood investors, guaranteeing the prompt and complete payment when due of all principal, interest and other amounts under each Deerwood Note. SAIL’s general partner is SAIL Venture Partners, LLC. At the time of issuance, our director David Jones was a managing member of SAIL Venture Partners, LLC, and he remains a limited partner of SAIL. The obligations under each guaranty were independent of our obligations under the Deerwood Notes and separate actions could be brought against the guarantor. We entered into an oral agreement to indemnify SAIL and grant to SAIL a security interest in our assets in connection with the guaranties. In addition, on August 20, 2010, we granted SAIL warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,334 shares of common stock at an exercise price (subject to anti-dilution adjustments, including for issuances of securities at prices below the then-effective exercise price) of $16.80 per share.
Each Deerwood Note accrued interest at a rate of 9% per annum and was convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $15.00. The conversion price was subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, but would never be less than $9.00.
On November 3, 2010, Deerwood Partners LLC, Deerwood Holdings LLC and BGN Acquisition Ltd. LP, executed the October Purchase Agreement. In connection therewith, we issued October 2010 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $762,200 and warrants to purchase up to 92,895 shares of common stock, as follows: (a) We received $250,000 in gross proceeds from the issuance to BGN Acquisition Ltd., LP, of October 2010 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000 and related warrants to purchase up to 41,667 shares. (b) We also issued October 2010 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $512,200, and related warrants to purchase up to 51,228 shares, to Deerwood Holdings LLC and Deerwood Partners LLC, in exchange for the cancellation of the Deerwood Notes originally issued on July 5, 2010 and August 20, 2010 in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 (and accrued and unpaid interest on those notes) and warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 5,000 shares originally issued on August 20, 2010. The related guaranties and oral indemnification and security agreement that had been entered into in connection with the Deerwood Notes were likewise terminated. SAIL, of which our director David Jones is a senior partner, issued unconditional guaranties to each of the Deerwood investors, guaranteeing the prompt and complete payment when due of all principal, interest and other amounts under the October 2010 Notes issued to such investors. The obligations under each guaranty are independent of our obligations under the October 2010 Notes and separate actions may be brought against the guarantor. In connection with its serving as guarantor, we granted SAIL warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 34,152 shares of common stock. The warrants to purchase 3,334 shares of common stock previously granted to SAIL on August 20, 2010 were canceled.
Monarch has also acted as non-exclusive placement agent with respect to the placement of January 2011 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $550,000 and related warrants, pursuant to an engagement agreement, dated January 19, 2011 which has the same terms as the September 30, 2010 agreement between the Company and Monarch. In connection with acting as nonexclusive placement agent with respect to January 2011 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $550,000 and related warrants, Monarch received aggregate cash fees of $55,000 and an aggregate cash expense allowance of $11,000 and five-year warrants (the “2011 Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of up to 18,334 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. The 2011 Placement Agent Warrants have an exercise price equal to 110% of the conversion price of the January 2011 Notes and an exercise period of five years. The terms of the 2011 Placement Agent Warrants, except for the exercise price and period, are identical to the terms of the warrants related to the January 2011 Notes.
Monarch has acted as non-exclusive placement agent with respect to the placement of certain of the abovementioned January 2011 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000 and related warrants, pursuant to an engagement agreement, dated January 19, 2011 which has the same terms as the above mentioned September 30, 2010 agreement between the Company and Monarch. In connection with acting as nonexclusive placement agent with respect to two January 2011 Notes dated April 5, 2011 and April 25, 2011 in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000 and related warrants, Monarch received aggregate cash fees of $20,000 and an aggregate cash expense allowance of $4,000 and 2011 Placement Agent Warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 6,667 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share.
Monarch has also acted as non-exclusive placement agent with respect to the placement of October 2011 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $160,000 and related warrants, pursuant to an engagement agreement, dated October 20, 2011 which has the same terms as the September 30, 2010 agreement between the Company and Monarch except that placement agent warrants have the same exercise price and term as the investor warrants. In connection with acting as nonexclusive placement agent with respect to October 2011 Notes dated December 16, 2011 and January 30, 2012 in the aggregate principal amount of $160,000 and related warrants, Monarch received aggregate cash fees of $16,000 and an aggregate cash expense allowance of $3,200 and five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 5,334 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share.
On January 27, 2012 we issued Zanett an additional 2011 Bridge Note in the aggregate amount of $40,000 and a warrant to purchase 13,334 shares of common stock for gross proceeds to the company of $40,000.
On February 29, 2012 we issued Zanett a subordinated unsecured promissory note (“Unsecured Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $90,000 and a warrant to purchase 30,000 shares of common stock for gross proceeds to the Company of $90,000. The terms of the Unsecured Notes and related warrants are substantially similar to the terms of the October 2011 Notes and related warrants, except that the Unsecured Notes are not secured by our assets.
Initially, the October 2010 Notes were to mature one year from the date of issuance (subject to earlier conversion or prepayment), earn interest equal to 9% per year with interest payable at maturity, and be convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $9.00. The conversion price was subject to adjustment upon (i) the subdivision or combination of, or stock dividends paid on, the common stock; (ii) the issuance of cash dividends and distributions on the common stock; (iii) the distribution of other capital stock, indebtedness or other non-cash assets; and (iv) the completion of a financing at a price below the conversion price then in effect. The October 2010 Notes were furthermore convertible, at the option of the holder, into securities to be issued in subsequent financings at the lower of the then-applicable conversion price or price per share payable by purchasers of such securities. The October 2010 Notes can be declared due and payable upon an event of default, defined in the October 2010 Notes to occur, among other things, if the Company fails to pay principal and interest when due, in the case of voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or if the Company fails to perform any covenant or agreement as required by the October Note.
Our obligations under the terms of the October 2010 Notes are secured by a security interest in the tangible and intangible assets of the Company, pursuant to a Security Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2010, by and between the Company and John Pappajohn, as administrative agent for the holders of the October 2010 Notes. This agreement was subsequently amended.
The warrants related to the October 2010 Notes expire seven years from the date of issuance and are exercisable for shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $9.00. Exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise are subject to adjustment (1) upon the subdivision or combination of, or stock dividends paid on, the common stock; (2) in case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in capital stock and (3) upon the completion of a financing at a price below the exercise price then in effect. Any provision of the October 2010 Notes or related warrants can be amended, waived or modified upon the written consent of the Company and holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of such notes outstanding. Any such consent will affect all October 2010 Notes or warrants, as the case may be, and will be binding on all holders thereof.
The October 2010 Notes were subsequently amended as detailed in (18) below and in the Subsequent Events footnote.
The terms of the January 2011 Notes are identical to the terms of the October 2010 Notes, except that (i) the January 2011 Notes are subordinated in all respects to the Company’s obligations under the October 2010 Notes and the related guaranties issued to certain investors by SAIL and (ii) the Company is not subject to a restrictive covenant to the use of proceeds from the sale of the January 2011 Notes only for current operations. Initially, the January 2011 Notes were not secured by any of the Company’s assets. The terms of the warrants were identical to the terms of the warrants issued in connection with the October 2010 Notes.
The January 2011 Notes were subsequently amended as detailed in (18) below and the Subsequent Events footnote.
On October 12, 2011, the Company, with the consent of the Majority Holders of its October 2010 Notes, amended all of the October 2010 Notes to extend the maturity of such notes until October 1, 2012 by means of an Amendment and Conversion Agreement. The Majority Holders of the October 2010 Notes also consented to the terms of the Bridge Financing and to granting the investors in such financing as well as the holders of the Company’s January 2011 Notes a second position security interest in the assets of the Company (including its intellectual property). The guaranties that had been issued in 2010 to certain October Note investors by SAIL were extended accordingly. The amendment, which was effective as of September 30, 2011, was also intended to add the same mandatory conversion and conversion price adjustment provisions to the terms of the October 2010 Notes as were added to the terms of the January 2011 Notes.
As a result of the issuance of October 2011 Notes (mentioned below) at a conversion price of $3.00 and the associated warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $3.00, the ratchet provision in the October 2010 Notes and January 2011 Notes was triggered, with the result that the conversion price of such notes was lowered from $9.00 to $3.00, the exercise price of the associated warrants was lowered from $9.00 to $3.00 per share, and the number of shares underlying such notes and warrants was proportionately increased.
The Amended and Restated Security Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2011, between the Company and Paul Buck, as administrative agent for the secured parties (the “Amended and Restated Security Agreement”), which replaces the existing security agreement from 2010, and the corresponding security interest terminate (1) with respect to the October 2010 Notes, if and when holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of October 2010 Notes issued have converted their notes into shares of common stock and, (2) with respect to the January 2011 Notes and the October 2011 Notes (defined below), if and when holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of January 2011 Notes and October 2011 Notes (on a combined basis) have converted their notes.
The Company evaluated the Amendment and Conversion Agreements, effective September 30, 2011 under ASC 470-50-40 “Extinguishments of Debt” (“ASC 470”). ASC 470 requires modifications to debt instruments to be evaluated to assess whether the modifications are considered “substantial modifications”. A substantial modification of terms shall be accounted for like an extinguishment. For extinguished debt, a difference between the re-acquisition price and the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt shall be recognized currently in income of the period of extinguishment as losses or gains. The Company noted the change in terms per the Amendment and Conversion Agreements and the October Purchase Agreement, met the criteria for substantial modification under ASC 470, and accordingly treated the modification as extinguishment of the original convertible notes, replaced by the new convertible notes under the modified terms. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,968,000 for the year ended September 30, 2011.
The Company evaluated the agreements amending the October 2010 Notes and January 2011 Notes (which superseded the Amendment and Conversion Agreements) as of September 30, 2012, under ASC 470. The Company noted the change in terms did not constitute a substantial modification under ASC470.
On June 1, 2012, the Company, having received on or prior to such date the consent of the Majority Holders of the October 2010 and January 2011 Notes, amended all of the and the January 2011 Notes to add a mandatory conversion provision to the terms of such notes. Under that provision, the October 2010 Notes and January 2011 Notes would be automatically converted upon the closing of a public offering by the Company of shares of its securities with gross proceeds to the Company of at least $3 million. If the public offering price were less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price would be adjusted to match the public offering price. Pursuant to the agreements amending the October 2010 Notes and January 2011 Notes, which superseded the Amendment and Conversion Agreements, the exercise price of the warrants that were issued in connection with the notes would be adjusted to match such public offering price, if such price were lower than the exercise price then in effect. The warrants were also amended to remove the full-ratchet provision from the warrants for securities offerings occurring after any such public offering. The Company agreed to issue to each holder of the October 2010 and January 2011 Notes, as consideration for the above and, warrants to purchase a number of shares of common stock corresponding to 100% of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest of his or her notes. These warrants would be issued on or within 10 business days after any public offering.
Initially, the October 2011 Notes were to mature one year from the date of issuance (subject to earlier conversion or prepayment), earn interest equal to 9% per year with interest payable at maturity,be convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $3.00, be secured by a second position security interest in the Company’s assets that is pari passu with the interest recently granted to the holders of the January 2011 Notes, be subordinated in all respects to the Company’s obligations under its October 2010 Notes and the related guaranties issued to certain investors by SAIL Venture Partners, L.P. be are pari passu to the obligations under the January 2011 Notes. The second position security interest is governed by the Amended and Restated Security Agreement.
The conversion price of the October 2011 Notes was subject to adjustment upon (1) the subdivision or combination of, or stock dividends paid on, the common stock; (2) the issuance of cash dividends and distributions on the common stock; (3) the distribution of other capital stock, indebtedness or other non-cash assets; and (4) the completion of a financing at a price below the conversion price then in effect. At the closing of a public offering by the Company of shares of its common stock and/or other securities with gross proceeds to the Company of at least $10 million (the “Qualified Offering”), each 2011 Bridge Note would be either redeemed or converted (in whole or in part) at a conversion price equal to the lesser of the public offering price or the conversion price then in effect, with the choice between redemption and conversion being at the sole option of the holder. The October 2011 Notes can be declared due and payable upon an event of default, defined in the October 2011 Notes to occur, among other things, if the Company fails to pay principal and interest when due, in the case of voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or if the Company fails to perform any covenant or agreement as required by the 2011 Bridge Note or materially breaches any representation or warranty in the 2011 Bridge Note or the 2011 Bridge Financing Purchase Agreement.
The warrants related to the October 2011 Notes expire five years from the date of issuance and are exercisable for shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $3.00. Exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise are subject to adjustment (1) upon the subdivision or combination of, or stock dividends paid on, the common stock; (2) in case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in capital stock and (3) upon the completion of a financing at a price below the exercise price then in effect (including the Qualified Offering), except that subsequent to the Qualified Offering, the exercise price will not be adjusted for any further financings. The warrants contain a cashless exercise provision.
With the exception of each holder’s option to redeem or convert their 2011 Bridge Note at the closing of the Qualified Offering, any provision of the October 2011 Notes or related warrants can be amended, waived or modified upon the written consent of the Company and holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of such notes outstanding. Any such majority consent will affect all October 2011 Notes or warrants, as the case may be, and will be binding on the Company and all holders of the October 2011 Notes or warrants. Each holder’s option to redeem or convert the 2011 Bridge Note at the closing of the Qualified Offering cannot be amended, waived or modified without the written consent of the Company and such holder and such amendment, waiver or modification will be binding only on the Company and such holder.
The Amended and Restated Security Agreement and the corresponding security interest terminate (1) with respect to the October 2010 Notes, if and when holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of October 2010 Notes issued have converted their notes into shares of common stock and (2) with respect to the January 2011 Notes and 2011 Bridge Notes, if and when holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of January 2011 Notes and October 2011 Notes (on a combined basis) have converted their notes.
On June 1, 2012, the Company, having received on or prior to such date the consent of holders of October 2011 Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,860,000 (out of a total outstanding aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000), amended such notes to add a mandatory conversion provision to the terms of such notes. Under that provision, the October 2011 Notes would be automatically converted upon the closing of a public offering by the Company of shares of its securities with gross proceeds to the Company of at least $3 million. If the public offering price were less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price would be adjusted to match the public offering price. Pursuant to the agreements amending the October 2011 Notes, the exercise price of the warrants that were issued in connection with the notes would be adjusted to match such public offering price, if such price were lower than the exercise price then in effect. The warrants were also amended to remove the full-ratchet provision from the warrants for securities offerings occurring after any such public offering. The Company agreed to issue to each holder of the October 2011 Notes who executed the agreements, as consideration for the above, warrants to purchase a number of shares of common stock corresponding to 50% of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest of his or her notes. These warrants would be issued on or within 10 business days after any public offering.
The August 2012 Bridge Notes mature on the later of October 1, 2013 or one year from the date of issuance (subject to earlier conversion or prepayment), earn interest at a rate of 9% per year with interest payable at maturity, are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.04718 and, upon consummation, are secured by a first position security interest in the Company’s assets, with the security interest of all previously outstanding convertible promissory notes subordinated. Holders of the October 2010 Notes would hold a second position security interest and holders of the January 2011 and October 2011 Notes would hold a third position security interest, in the assets of the Company. The security interests relating to all such notes will be governed by the second amended and restated security agreement, dated as of August 16, 2012, between the Company and David Jones, as administrative agent for the secured parties (the “Second Amended and Restated Security Agreement”), which replaces the security agreement entered into in September 2011. As of September 30, 2012, David Jones was the Chairman of our Board of Directors and a limited partner and former managing partner of SAIL Venture Partners LP.
The conversion price is subject to adjustment upon (1) the subdivision or combination of, or stock dividends paid on, the common stock; (2) the issuance of cash dividends and distributions on the common stock; and (3) the distribution of other capital stock, indebtedness or other non-cash assets.
