NOTE 11 – AGREEMENT WITH HEALTHCOR

 

On April 21, 2011, we entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (as subsequently amended) with HealthCor Partners Fund, LP (“HealthCor Partners”) and HealthCor Hybrid Offshore Master Fund, LP (“HealthCor Hybrid” and, together with HealthCor Partners, “HealthCor”) (the “HealthCor Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the HealthCor Purchase Agreement, we sold and issued Senior Secured Convertible Notes to HealthCor in the principal amount of $9,316,000 and $10,684,000, respectively (collectively the “2011 HealthCor Notes”). The 2011 HealthCor Notes have a maturity date of April 20, 2021. We also issued Warrants to HealthCor for the purchase of an aggregate of up to 5,488,456 and 6,294,403 shares, respectively, of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share (collectively the “2011 HealthCor Warrants”). So long as no event of default has occurred, the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes accrue interest from April 21, 2011 through April 20, 2016 (the “First Five-Year Note Period”) at the rate of 12.5% per annum, compounding quarterly and shall be added to the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes on the last day of each calendar quarter. Interest accruing from April 21, 2016 through April 20, 2021 (the “Second Five Year Note Period”) at a rate of 10% per annum, compounding quarterly, may be paid quarterly in arrears in cash or, at our option, such interest may be added to the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes on the last day of each calendar quarter. For the period from April 21, 2016 through September 30, 2018 interest has been added to the outstanding principal balance. Pursuant to the terms of the Ninth Amendment, the accrual of interest has been suspended after September 30, 2018. From the date any event of default occurs, the interest rate, then applicable, shall be increased by five percent (5%) per annum. HealthCor has the right, upon an event of default, to declare due and payable any unpaid principal amount of the 2011 HealthCor Notes then outstanding, plus previously accrued but unpaid interest and charges, together with the interest then scheduled to accrue (calculated at the default rate described in the immediately preceding sentence) through the end of the First Five Year Note Period or the Second Five Year Note Period, as applicable. Subject to the terms of the Ninth Amendment as discussed below, HealthCor’s ability to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid accrued interest on and principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes into fully paid and nonassessable shares of our Common Stock has been eliminated. The warrants issued with this Note were cancelled with the Ninth-Amendment dated July 10, 2018.

 

On April 20, 2021, we agreed with the HealthCor Parties to (i) amend the 2011 HealthCor Notes to extend the maturity date of the 2011 HealthCor Notes from April 20, 2021 to April 20, 2022 by entering into Allonge No. 3 to the 2011 HealthCor Notes (the “Third 2011 Note Allonges”) and (ii) amend the 2012 HealthCor Notes to extend the maturity date of the 2012 HealthCor Notes from January 30, 2022 to April 20, 2022 by entering into Allonge No. 3 to the 2012 HealthCor Notes (the “Third 2012 Note Allonges”) (such amendments to the 2011 HealthCor Notes and 2012 HealthCor Notes together, the “HealthCor Note Extensions”). In connection with the HealthCor Note Extensions, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $0.23 per share (subject to adjustment as described therein) and with an expiration date of April 20, 2031, to the HealthCor Parties (collectively the “2021 HealthCor Warrants”). As a concession has been granted, the agreement is to be accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring by debtors (TDR) under ASC 470-60.

 

Also on April 20, 2021, in connection with the HealthCor Note Extensions and the issuance of the 2021 HealthCor Warrants, we entered into a Consent and Agreement Pursuant to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “2021 NWPA Consent”) with the HealthCor Parties and certain additional Existing Investors (in their capacity as Majority Holders acting together with the HealthCor Parties), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the Majority Holders consented to the HealthCor Note Extensions, (ii) the Majority Holders consented to the issuance of the 2021 HealthCor Warrants and (iii) the parties agreed that the holders of the 2021 HealthCor Warrants would have registration rights for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the 2021 HealthCor Warrants under the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of April 20, 2011, as amended June 30, 2015, by and among the Company, the HealthCor Parties and the additional investors party thereto (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

 

On March 08, 2022, we agreed with the HealthCor Parties to (i) amend the 2011 HealthCor Notes to extend the maturity date of the 2011 HealthCor Notes from April 20, 2022 to April 20, 2023 by entering into Allonge No. 4 to the 2011 HealthCor Notes (the “Third 2011 Note Allonges”) and (ii) amend the 2012 HealthCor Notes to extend the maturity date of the 2012 HealthCor Notes from April 20, 2022 to April 20, 2023 by entering into Allonge No. 4 to the 2012 HealthCor Notes (the “Fourth 2012 Note Allonges”) (such amendments to the 2011 HealthCor Notes and 2012 HealthCor Notes together, the “HealthCor Note Extensions”). In connection with the HealthCor Note Extensions, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $0.09 per share (subject to adjustment as described therein) and with an expiration date of March 08, 2032, to the HealthCor Parties (collectively the “2021 HealthCor Warrants”). The warrants were valued at $240,000 and are amortized over the life of the debt. The conclusion was that this was a debt modification and this was accounted for as such.

 

Also on March 08, 2022, in connection with the HealthCor Note Extensions and the issuance of the 2021 HealthCor Warrants, we entered into a Consent and Agreement Pursuant to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “2022 NWPA Consent”) with the HealthCor Parties and certain additional Existing Investors (in their capacity as Majority Holders acting together with the HealthCor Parties), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the Majority Holders consented to the HealthCor Note Extensions, (ii) the Majority Holders consented to the issuance of the 2021 HealthCor Warrants and (iii) the parties agreed that the holders of the 2021 HealthCor Warrants would have registration rights for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the 2021 HealthCor Warrants under the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of April 20, 2011, as amended June 30, 2015, by and among the Company, the HealthCor Parties and the additional investors party thereto (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

 

On July 1, 2022, we entered into amendments to the 2014 HealthCor Notes, 2015 Supplemental Notes, Eighth Amendment Supplemental Closing Notes, Tenth Amendment Supplemental Closing Notes, Twelfth Amendment Supplemental Closing Note and Thirteenth Amendment Supplemental Closing Note (collectively, the “2022 Allonges”) to suspend the accrual of interest on the 2014 HealthCor Notes as to 100% of the outstanding principal amount under such notes, 2015 Supplemental Notes as to 100% of the outstanding principal amount under such notes, Eighth Amendment Supplemental Closing Notes as to 100% of the outstanding principal amount under such notes, Tenth Amendment Supplemental Closing Notes as to 100% of the outstanding principal amount under such notes, Twelfth Amendment Supplemental Closing Note as to 100% of the outstanding principal amount under such note, and Thirteenth Amendment Supplemental Closing Note as to 100% of the outstanding principal amount under such note, for all periods beginning on and after January 1, 2022. This was determined to be a Troubled Debt Restructure and is accounted for accordingly.

 

Also on December 30, 2022, the Existing Investors agreed to the cancellation by the Company and the forfeiting of their respective rights in and to the 2011 Warrants, 2014 Supplemental Warrants, Fifth Amendment Supplemental Warrants, Sixth Amendment Supplemental Warrants, Eighth Amendment Supplemental Warrants, 2021 Warrants and 2022 Warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”); and the Existing Investors have agreed to waive any and all interest that has accrued, but remains unpaid on the Existing Notes held by the Existing Investors; in exchange for releasing its second senior secured position they hold in connection with the 2011 Notes and 2012 Notes. The Existing Investors have agreed to waive any and all interest that has accrued, but remains unpaid on the Existing Notes held by the Existing Investors with the 2014 Notes along with the 2015 Notes, 2018 Notes, 2019 Note and 2020 Note. In exchange for releasing its second senior secured position they hold in connection with the 2011 Notes and 2012 Notes, the HealthCor Parties will receive an additional $5,000,000 in value in the Replacement Notes. In this troubled debt restructuring, all the conversion rates were changed to $0.10. The gain from this troubled debt restructuring was $1,489,357.

 

On March 30, 2023, HealthCor noteholders owning an aggregate of $36,000,000 Replacement Notes, entered into a Replacement Note Conversion Agreement, wherein half, fifty percent, of the HealthCor Replacement Notes were converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.10 per share, resulting in the issuance of an aggregate of 180,000,000 shares. The other related and non-related parties Replacement Notes of $8,200,000 were likewise converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.10 per share, resulting in the issuance of a combined total aggregate of 262,000,000 shares (the “Conversion Shares”). The shares bear a lockup legend that expires December 31, 2023.

Accounting Treatment

 

When issuing debt or equity securities convertible into common stock at a discount to the fair value of the common stock at the date the debt or equity financing is committed, a company is required to record a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) charge. We had three separate issuances of equity securities convertible into common stock that qualify under this accounting treatment, (i) the 2011 HealthCor Notes, (ii) the 2012 HealthCor Notes and (iii) the 2014 HealthCor Notes. Because the conversion option and the 2011 HealthCor Warrants on the 2011 HealthCor Notes were originally classified as a liability when issued due to the down round provision and the removal of the provision requiring liability treatment, and subsequently reclassified to equity on December 31, 2011 when the 2011 HealthCor Notes were amended, only the accrued interest capitalized as payment in kind (‘‘PIK’’) since reclassification qualifies under this accounting treatment. We recorded an aggregate of $0 and $1,406,760 in interest for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to these transactions. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we recorded $0 and $860,728, respectively, of PIK related to the notes included in the HealthCor Purchase Agreement. Under the accounting standards, we determined that the restructuring of the HealthCor notes, pursuant to the terms of the Ninth Amendment, resulted in a troubled debt restructuring.

 

Warrants were issued with the Fourth, Fifth, Eighth, Ninth, and Allonge 3 Amendment Notes and the proceeds were allocated to the instruments based on relative fair value as the warrants did not contain any features requiring liability treatment and therefore were classified as equity. At each amendment date, the warrants were recorded as debt discount, as a reduction of the net carrying amount of the debt. The debt discounts are amortized into interest expense each period under the effective interest method. The value allocated to the Ninth Amendment Warrants was $378,000. The value allocated to the Allonge 3 Amendment Warrants was $420,000.

 

Warrants were issued with Allonge 4 Amendment Notes and the proceeds were allocated to the instruments based on relative fair value as the warrants did not contain any features requiring liability treatment and therefore were classified as equity. At each amendment date, the warrants were recorded as debt discount, as a reduction of the net carrying amount of the debt. The debt discounts are amortized into interest expense each period under the effective interest method. The value allocated to the Allonge 4 Amendment Warrants was $240,000.
