Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
On August 19, 2024, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements (the "Securities Purchase Agreements") with certain accredited and/or sophisticated investors (the "Purchasers") to sell convertible subordinated promissory notes (the "Convertible Notes") in aggregate principal amount of $2.1 million. The Convertible Promissory Notes mature on April 2, 2029, bear interest at 13% per annum payable quarterly in kind or may be paid in cash (subject to payment conditions in the Subordination Agreement described below). Subject to the payment conditions in the Subordination Agreement described below, the Company may prepay the Convertible Notes in whole or in part at any time upon ten days’ written notice; provided that, no prepayment will be permitted prior to the stockholder approval described below without the consent of the applicable holder.
Each holder of a Convertible Note is entitled to convert the Conversion Amount (as defined below) into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $3.01, and (ii) the greater of (A) the consolidated closing bid price of the Company’s common stock as reported on Nasdaq on the applicable conversion date and (B) $1.00, in each case subject to adjustments for stock splits, recapitalizations and the like. However, the applicable conversion price will in no event be lower than the price established by clause (ii) above unless and until the Company’s stockholders have approved matters related to the issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, which vote is expected to take place at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. The “Conversion Amount” is the sum of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Note, as designated by the holder upon exercise of its right of conversion, plus all accrued and unpaid interest. The Convertible Notes are subject to additional limits on conversion until stockholder approval is obtained, including an aggregate limit on the number of shares that may be issued upon conversion to 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock and provisions to prevent a change of control as defined in the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. Holders of the Convertible Notes will be permitted to vote on such stockholder approval, but may not vote any shares obtained from conversion of the Convertible Notes prior to such vote. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to the Convertible Notes.
In connection with the Second Amendment and the Purchase Agreements, the Company, SLR and the purchasers of the Convertible Notes entered into a Second Amendment Subordination Agreement dated August 19, 2024 (the "Subordination Agreement"). The Subordination Agreement confirms the subordinated nature of the Convertible Notes and restricts payments to and remedies of the holders of the Convertible Notes for so long as the SLR Credit Agreement has indebtedness outstanding. The Subordination Agreement provides that the Company may not make any payment of principal or interest on the Convertible Notes unless the conditions set forth in either in clause (i) or clause (ii) below are satisfied:
(i) (a) no event of default under the SLR Credit Agreement exists before or immediately after giving effect to such payment, (b) the Borrower has demonstrated to the satisfaction of SLR compliance with certain financial covenants on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the payment, and (c) SLR’s receipt of the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.
(ii) (a) no event of default under the SLR Credit Agreement exists before or immediately after giving effect to such payment, (b) the Company has raised equity capital excluding the proceeds from the sale of the Convertible Notes prior to June 30, 2025 and the payments made in respect of the Convertible Notes do not exceed an amount that equals the positive difference of the amount of such equity raise and $7,000,000, and (c) the Borrower has demonstrated to the satisfaction of SLR compliance with certain financial covenants on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the payment.
