11.  Term Note Payable

Three-Year Term Note

On February 4, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (as amended, the “Note Purchase Agreement”), by and among us, certain subsidiaries of us party thereto as guarantors, Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Holdings, Inc. and any other purchasers party thereto from time to time (collectively, the “Purchaser”). Under the Note Purchase Agreement, we sold to the Purchaser $30.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes (the “Notes”), which bear interest at a rate of 13.0% per annum and payable quarterly on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year until maturity. The entire principal amount of the Notes is due and payable on February 4, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”). The Notes do not amortize and the entire principal balance is due in a single payment on the Maturity Date. As of June 30, 2020, $30.0 million in borrowings were outstanding under the three-year term note.

Obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement are secured by all of our assets, including intellectual property and general intangibles. The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants, including, among others, covenants that restrict our ability to incur debt, grant liens, make certain investments and acquisitions, pay dividends, repurchase equity interests, repay certain debt, amend certain contracts, enter into affiliate transactions and asset sales or make certain equity issuances (including equity issuances that would cause an ownership change within the meaning of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code), and covenants that require us to, among other things, provide annual, quarterly and monthly financial statements, together with related compliance certificates, maintain its property in good repair, maintain insurance and comply with applicable laws.

On December 9, 2019, the Company entered into a Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Note Purchase Agreement. Under the Second Amendment, the Parties agreed to amend Section 6.21 of the Note Purchase Agreement to increase the Section 382 Ownership Shift threshold to not exceed 40.0%.  On June 16, 2020, the Company entered into a Fifth Amendment (the “Fifth Amendment”) to the Note Purchase Agreement. Under the Fifth Amendment, the Parties agreed to amend Section 6.21 of the Note Purchase Agreement to increase the Section 382 Ownership Shift (as defined therein) threshold to not exceed 42.0% until April 1, 2021, and 40% thereafter.

The financial covenants of the Note Purchase Agreement require the Company not to exceed specified levels of Adjusted EBITDA losses relative to its financial model, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2020. Additionally, we shall not permit our minimum consolidated liquidity, which consists of our cash and cash equivalents, to be less than $12.0 million through February 4, 2020, and $9.0 million thereafter. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the covenants contained in the Note Purchase Agreement.

The three-year term note has been recorded net of a discount based on the fair value of the associated common stock warrants and debt issuance costs totaling $2.0 million. Amortization of the debt discount and debt issuance costs was $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, based on an effective interest rate, and has been recorded as interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Interest expense related to the term note payable during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1.3 million, which includes $0.3 million in amortization of debt issuance costs, respectively.

SBA Paycheck Protection Program Loan

On April 15, 2020, the Company submitted an application to its banking partner Western Alliance Bank, an Arizona corporation (“Western Alliance”) under the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program enabled by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the “CARES Act”). Western Alliance entered into a Note on April 24, 2020 (the “Note”) with the Company and agreed to make available to the Company a loan in the amount of $2,610,200 (the “Loan”). The Company received the full amount of the Loan on April 24, 2020 (the “Initial Disbursement Date) and currently plans to use the proceeds to support fixed costs such as payroll costs, rent and utilities in accordance with the relevant terms and conditions of the CARES Act. On May 13, 2020, the Company repaid $660,200 of the loan in accordance with the Fourth Amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement between the Company and Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Group, L.P.

The advance under the Loan bears interest at a rate per annum of 1%. The term of the Loan is two years, ending April 24, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”).

Beginning on the seventh month following the Initial Disbursement Date, the Company is required to pay monthly principal and interest payments, with each installment payment first to pay interest accrued since the Initial Disbursement Date, then to bring principal current. The Company may adjust the payment amount periodically to amortize the principal over the remaining term of the Note.

The Loan may be forgiven partially or fully if the funding received are used for payroll costs, interest on mortgages, rent, and utilities, provided that at least 75% of the forgiven amount has been used for payroll costs. Forgiveness is based on the Company maintaining, or quickly rehiring employees and maintaining applicable salary levels.

Forgiveness will be reduced if full-time headcount declines, or if salaries and wages decrease. Any forgiveness of the Loan shall be subject to approval of the SBA and will require the Company and Western Alliance to apply to the SBA for such treatment in the future.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements and the accounting will largely depend on the Company’s ability to have the loan forgiven.
