8. LOAN AGREEMENT

 

On January 6, 2017, Oxford Finance LLC, as collateral agent and a lender (the “Lender”), and any additional lenders that may become parties thereto, entered into a loan and security agreement with us (the “Loan Agreement”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Lender issued us a loan in the principal amount of  $15.0 million. The loan will bear interest at the rate equal to (a) the greater of  (i) the 30 day U.S. LIBOR rate reported in the Wall Street Journal on the date occurring on the last business day of the month that immediately precedes the month in which the interest will accrue or (ii) 0.65% (b) plus 6.85%. The applicable interest rate on the loan at March 31, 2017 was 7.83%. We will have interest-only payments for 18 months, followed by an amortization period of 36 months. The maturity date of the loan is July 1, 2021. 

 

The expected remaining repayment of the $15 million loan principal is as follows:

 

2018 $1,667 
2019  5,000 
2020  5,000 
2021  3,333 
  $15,000 

 

Upon the earlier of prepayment or the maturity date, we will pay to the Lender a final payment of 6% of the full principal amount of the loan. We may elect to prepay all amounts owed prior to the maturity date, provided that a prepayment fee also is paid equal to (i) 3% of the outstanding principal balance if prepayment occurs in months 1-12 following the closing, (ii) 2.0% of the outstanding principal balance in months 13-24 following the closing, and (iii) 1% thereafter.

 

We paid the Lender an upfront facility fee of  $75,000.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, we are bound by certain affirmative covenants setting forth actions that are required during the term of the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, certain information delivery requirements, obligations to maintain certain insurance, and certain notice requirements. Additionally, we are bound by certain negative covenants setting forth actions that are not permitted to be taken during the term of the Loan Agreement without consent, including, without limitation, incurring certain additional indebtedness, entering into certain mergers, acquisitions or other business combination transactions, or incurring any non-permitted lien or other encumbrance on our assets. We are in compliance with the loan covenants at March 31, 2017.

 

Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Loan Agreement (subject to cure periods for certain events of default), all amounts owed by us thereunder will begin to bear interest at a rate that is 5% higher than the rate that is otherwise applicable and may be declared immediately due and payable by the Lender. Events of default under the Loan Agreement include, among other things, the following: the occurrence of certain bankruptcy events; the failure to make payments under the Loan Agreement when due; the occurrence of a material adverse change in our business, operations or financial condition ; the rendering of certain types of fines or judgments against us; any breach by us of any covenant (subject to cure for certain covenants only) made in the Loan Agreement; and the failure of any representation or warranty made by us in connection with the Loan Agreement to be correct in all material respects when made.

 

We have granted Lender, a security interest in substantially all of our personal property, rights and assets, other than intellectual property, to secure the payment of all amounts owed to the Lender under the Loan Agreement. We have also agreed not to encumber any of our intellectual property without required lenders’ prior written consent.

 

In connection with entering into the Loan Agreement, we issued to the Lender warrants to purchase an aggregate of 354,330 shares of our common stock (the “Lender Warrants”). The warrants are exercisable immediately, have a per-share exercise price of  $1.27 and have a term of ten years. We have recorded the relative fair value of the warrants as a discount to the carrying value of the notes payable with a corresponding increase to additional paid in capital.
