Item 1.01. Entry Into or Amendment of a Material Definitive Agreement.
Indenture and Notes
On November 1, 2022, NextGen Healthcare, Inc. (the “Company”) issued $275,000,000 principal amount of its 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of November 1, 2022, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Pursuant to the purchase agreement between the Company and the initial purchasers of the Notes, the Company granted the initial purchasers an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the Notes are first issued, up to an additional $45,000,000 principal amount of Notes. The Notes issued on November 1, 2022 include $45,000,000 principal amount of Notes issued pursuant to the full exercise by the initial purchasers of such option.
The Notes will be the Company’s senior, unsecured obligations and will be (i) equal in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent the Company is not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s subsidiaries.
The Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 3.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2023. The Notes will mature on November 15, 2027, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before August 16, 2027, noteholders will have the right to convert their Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after August 16, 2027, noteholders may convert their Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The Company will have the right to elect to settle conversions either entirely in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of its common stock. However, upon conversion of any Notes, the conversion value, which will be determined over an “Observation Period” (as defined in the Indenture) consisting of 60 trading days, will be paid in cash up to at least the principal amount of the Notes being converted. The initial conversion rate is 38.9454 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $25.68 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time.
The Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations described below), at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after November 20, 2025, and before the 61st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. However, the Company may not redeem less than all of the outstanding Notes unless at least $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes are outstanding and not called for redemption as of the time the Company sends the related redemption notice. The redemption price will be a cash amount equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, calling any Note for redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted with a conversion date that is on or after the date the Company sends the related redemption notice and on or before the second business day immediately before the related redemption date.
If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Indenture) occur, then, subject to a limited exception for certain cash mergers, noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving the Company and certain de-listing events with respect to the Company’s common stock.
The Notes will have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the Indenture), which include the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the Notes (which, in the case of a default in
the payment of interest on the Notes, will be subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) the Company’s failure to send certain notices under the Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) the Company’s failure to comply with certain covenants in the Indenture relating to the Company’s ability to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by the Company in its other obligations or agreements under the Indenture or the Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in accordance with the Indenture; (v) certain defaults by the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $50,000,000; (vi) the rendering of certain judgments against the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries for the payment of at least $50,000,000, where such judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed within 60 days after the date on which the right to appeal has expired or on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries.
If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to the Company (and not solely with respect to a significant subsidiary of the Company) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the Trustee, by notice to the Company, or noteholders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may elect, at its option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the Notes for up to 365 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50% on the principal amount of the Notes.
The above description of the Indenture and the Notes is a summary and is not complete. A copy of the Indenture and the form of the certificate representing the Notes are filed as exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the above summary is qualified by reference to the terms of the Indenture and the Notes set forth in such exhibits.
Second Amendment to Credit Agreement
On October 27, 2022, the Company entered into that certain Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), and the lenders party thereto. The Second Amendment amends the Company’s existing credit agreement dated March 12, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”) with the Administrative Agent and the lenders from time to time party thereto.
The Second Amendment modifies the Credit Agreement to make certain updates to the conditions restricting the making of certain dividends, distributions, and other restricted payments by the Company so that the Company’s compliance with the net leverage ratio governor contained in such conditions is calculated net of the net cash proceeds of the Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture.
The above description of the Second Amendment is a summary and is not complete. A copy of the Second Amendment is filed as exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the above summary is qualified by reference to the terms of the Second Amendment set forth in such exhibit.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.
The disclosure set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The disclosure set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The Notes were issued to the initial purchasers in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in transactions not involving any public offering. The Notes were resold by the initial purchasers to persons whom the initial purchasers reasonably believe are “qualified institutional buyers,” as defined in, and in accordance with, Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Any shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued upon conversion of the Notes will be issued in reliance upon Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act as involving an exchange by the Company exclusively with its security holders. Initially, a maximum of 14,458,455 shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued upon conversion of the Notes, based on the initial maximum conversion
rate of 52.5762 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On October 27, 2022, the Company issued a press release relating to its proposed offering of Notes, and on October 28, 2022, the Company issued a press release relating to the pricing of its offering of Notes, in each case to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Copies of the press releases are attached as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K nor the press releases constitutes an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the Notes or the shares of the Company’s common stock, if any, issuable upon conversion of the Notes.
