NOTE 8—STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Purchase Agreement with GPB—On December 29, 2017, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement with GPB Debt Holdings II, LLC (“GPB”), pursuant to which the Company issued to GPB a $13 million principal amount senior secured convertible promissory note (the “GPB Note”) for an aggregate purchase price of $12.5 million, reflecting a 4.0% original issue discount.

In connection with the issuance of GPB Note, the Company also issued to GPB a warrant (the “GPB Warrant”) to purchase up to 240,764 of common stock at an exercise price of $10.80 per share, with customary adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and other recapitalization events and anti-dilution provisions set forth in the GPB Warrant. The GPB Warrant became exercisable six months after issuance and has a term of five years from the initial exercise date.

The Company determined that under ASC 815-40, GPB Warrant should be separately recognized at fair value as a liability upon issuance. The warrant liability is remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs and any change in the fair value of the liability is recorded in earnings.

The following table sets forth the fair values of the warrants as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands):

Prior to the Merger, the value of warrant derivative liabilities and any change in fair value were determined using a Binominal Monte-Carlo Cliquet Option Pricing Model. After the Merger, the fair value of the warrant derivative liabilities was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing models.

The value as of the dates set forth the in the table below, were based on upon following assumptions:

Purchase Agreement with Holders of 10% Senior Secured Debentures—In October 2018, EMI sold and issued $12.2 million principal amount of 10% Senior Secured Debentures and common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,220,000 shares of EMI common stock to a limited number of accredited investors. EMI’s obligations under the Debentures were secured by a security interest in substantially all EMI assets and guaranteed by EMI’s U.S. subsidiaries. The net proceeds of the sale of the debentures and warrants were used to fund EMI’s original $13.2 million loan to EJ Holdings, Inc. in October 2018 reflected on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

As described in Note 7 above, the Debentures were amended and restated in their entirety in conjunction with the Merger. The common stock purchase warrants issued in conjunction with the original Debentures also were amended and restated in their entirety in conjunction with the Merger.

The Amended and Restated 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures issued in conjunction with the Merger    were convertible at the option of each holder into shares of EMI common stock immediately prior to the Merger at a conversion price of $10.00 a share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, merger reorganizations and other customary events. The related amended and restated warrants were exercisable immediately prior to the Merger for an aggregate of 1,460,000 shares of EMI common stock at an initial exercise price of $10.00 per share. The exercise price of the warrants was subject to reduction in connection with a “going public event” such as the Merger based upon the “VWAP” (i.e., volume-weighted average trading price) of the Company common stock at the time of the Merger. Upon completion of the Merger, the amended and restated warrants became exercisable for shares of the Company common stock and the exercise price of the warrants and the number of underlying warrant shares were adjusted based upon exchange ratio in the Merger. The exercise price of the amended and restated warrants was subsequently adjusted in accordance with their terms to $5.87 per share based upon the VWAP of the Company common stock on the day following completion of the Merger.

Pursuant to the terms of a securities amendment agreement entered into in February 2020, the Amended and Restated 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures were once again amended and restated in their entirety to extend their maturity date to April 21, 2021 and reduce the conversion price of thereof to $3.00 per share from $9.52 per share. The related amended and restate common stock purchase warrants also were amended and restated again to reduce the exercise price thereof to $3.00 per share from $5.87 per share. The newly Amended and Restated 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and related newly amended and restated warrants provide for so-called full-ratchet anti-dilution adjustments in the event we sell or issue shares of common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price per share less than the conversion price of the debentures or the exercise price of the warrants, subject to certain exceptions. The conversion price of the Amended and Restated 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and the exercise price of the related amended and restated warrants were reduced to $2.00 a share as a result of the Company’s sale of 100,000 shares of common stock at a price of $2.00 a share under

the Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park Capital LLC described below and were subsequently reduced again as described in Note 14. See Note 14 for information regarding our recent prepayment of the Debentures.

The Company evaluated the common stock purchase warrants issued in connection with the original issuance of the 10% Senior Secured Debentures in October 2018 under ASC 815-40 and concluded that the warrants should be separately recognized at fair value as a liability. The liability is remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 input and any changes in fair value is recorded in earnings. In 2019, the Debentures were amended and restated to be convertible into common stock of EMI immediately prior to completion of the Merger, which resulted in the related warrants being reclassified to equity.

Purchase agreement with Holder of a Convertible Promissory Note - On June 15, 2020, the holder of a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $3,150,000 agreed to an extension of the maturity date to June 15, 2023 in exchange for an increase in the interest rate on the note from 11% to 12%. In conjunction with this amendment, the Company issued to the holder of note five-year common stock purchase warrants to purchase a total of up to 1,250,000 shares of the Company common stock at an exercise price of $2.05 a share. The modification of debt was considered as debt extinguishment and $1.4 million of loss on debt extinguishment was recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Under ASC 815-40, the Company concluded that the warrants issued to the holder of the notes should be recognized at fair value as a liability. The warrant liability is remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 input and any changes in the fair value of liability is recorded in earnings.

The following table presents the change in fair value of the warrants as of December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

The fair value of the warrant derivative liabilities was determined using the Black-Scholes Merton model and was based upon following assumptions:

Stock Options – Upon completion of the Merger, the EMI Amended and Restated 2011 Stock Incentive Plan was assumed by the Company. The 2011 Stock Incentive Plan permits grants of incentive stock options to employees, including executive officers, and other share-based awards such as stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock units, stock bonus and unrestricted stock awards to employees, directors, and consultants for up to 9,000,000 shares of common stock.   Options granted under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan expire ten years after grant. Options granted to directors vest in quarterly installments and all other option grants vest over a minimum period of three years, in each case, subject to continuous service with the Company. Each stock option outstanding under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan at the effective time of the Merger was automatically converted into a stock option exercisable for a number of shares of the Company’s common stock and at an exercise price calculated based on the exchange ratios in the Merger.

The Company also had an Amended and Restated 2012 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan under which the Company may grant incentive stock options to selected employees including officers, non-employee consultants and non-employee directors. All outstanding stock award under the 2012 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan were fully vested prior to the Merger and the Company intends not to make any further award under thereunder.

Management has valued stock options at their date of grant utilizing the Black‑Scholes‑Merton Option pricing model. The fair value of the underlying shares was determined by the market value of stock of similar companies and recent arm’s length transactions involving the sale of the Company’s common stock. Prior the Merger, the Company lacked company-specific historical and implied volatility information for its common stock. Therefore, the expected volatility was calculated using the historical volatility of a comparative public traded companies. The following table presents the assumptions used on recent dates on which options were granted by the Company.

The risk‑free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with a term approximating the expected life of the options depending on the date of the grant and expected life of the respective options.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company granted options to purchase up to 90,000 shares of common stock. The options have an exercise prices of $2.05 per share. December 31, 2019, the Company granted options to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock. The options have an exercise price of $10.30 per share. All of the options are exercisable with respect to one‑third (1/3) of the underlying shares on the first anniversary of the grant date and as to the remaining two‑thirds (2/3) of shares in twenty‑four (24) approximately equal monthly installments over a period of two years thereafter.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 is presented below:

During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $0.7 million and $3.7 million, respectively, of share‑based compensation cost arising from stock option grants. As of December 31, 2020, there was approximately $474,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share‑based compensation arrangements granted under the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining period of 0.8 years.

Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC—On February 28, 2020, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“LPC”), pursuant to which the Company may elect to sell to LPC up to $25,000,000 in shares of its common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including 100,000 initial shares that the Company sold to LPC at a price of $2.00 per share.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on any business day over the 36-month term of the Purchase Agreement the Company has the right at its discretion and subject to certain conditions to direct LPC to purchase up to 20,000 shares of common stock, which amount is subject to increase under certain circumstances based upon increases in the market price of its common stock. The purchase price of the common stock will be based upon the prevailing market price of common stock at the time of the purchase without any fixed discount. In addition, the Company may direct LPC to purchase additional amounts as accelerated purchases and additional accelerated purchases under certain circumstances. Apart from the initial sale of shares described above, the Company is not obliged to sell any shares of common stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and the Company will control the timing and amount of any such sales, but in no event will LPC be required to purchase more than $1,000,000 of common stock in any single regular purchase (excluding accelerated or additional accelerated purchases).

Concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement on February 28, 2020, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a prospectus supplement pursuant to Rule 424(b) relating to the sale shares of common stock to be issued and sold to LPC under the Purchase Agreement under our effective shelf registration statement or a new registration statement and to use our reasonable best efforts to keep such registration statement effective during the term of the Purchase Agreement.

on the price per share that LPC could be obligated to pay for common stock, but shares will only be sold to LPC on a day the Company’s closing price is less than the floor price as set forth in the Purchase Agreement and if the sale of the shares would not result in LPC and its affiliates having beneficial ownership of more than 4.99% of the Company’s total outstanding shares of common stock. The Company has the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time, at no cost or penalty. As consideration for LPC’s commitments under the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to LPC 415,743 shares of common stock, which valued at $750,000, recorded as an addition to equity for common stock and reduction for cost of capital raised.

As of the date of filing of this Annual Report, we are out of compliance with certain terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and unable to utilize the Purchase Agreement. We intend to seek to bring the Company into compliance or seek an appropriate waiver from LPC to regain our ability to utilize the Purchase Agreement, but there can be no assurance when or whether we may be able to do so. If we are able to utilize the Purchase Agreement, whether or to what extent the Company sells shares of common stock to LPC under the Purchase Agreement will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the company from time to time, including, among others, its net revenue and other results of operations, its working capital and other funding needs, the prevailing market prices of the Company’s common stock and the availability of other sources of funding.
