BroadOak Loan
On October 29, 2021, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into the Term Loan with BroadOak, providing for a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $8,000,000. Funding of the Term Loan took place on November 1, 2021. The Term Loan was scheduled to mature upon the earlier of (i) October 31, 2024 or (ii) the occurrence of a change in control, and bears interest at the rate of 9% per annum. The Term Loan is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets and was subordinate to the Company’s $7,500,000 revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank. See Note 16, Revolving Line of Credit. The Term Loan had an origination fee of 3% of the Term Loan amount, and a terminal payment equal to (i) 15% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan, (ii) 20% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs after the first anniversary but on or prior to the second anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan and (iii) 30% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs after the second anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan, or if the Term Loan is repaid on its maturity date.
The Term Loan contains affirmative and negative restrictive covenants that are applicable from and after the date of the Term Loan advance. These restrictive covenants, which include restrictions on certain mergers, acquisitions, investments, encumbrances, etc., could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. The Term Loan also contains customary events of default.
The Company concluded that the Note met the definition of a “recognized financial liability” which is an acceptable financial instrument eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10-15-4, and did not meet the definition of any of the financial instruments listed within ASC 825-10-15-5 that are not eligible for the fair value option. The Note is not convertible and does not have any component recorded to stockholders’ deficit. Accordingly, the Company elected the fair value option for the Note.
In May 2022, the Company issued a convertible note to BroadOak, pursuant to which BroadOak funded a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $2.0 million, which was converted into a subordinated term loan and was added to the outstanding balance of the Term Loan.
On October 24, 2023, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with BroadOak. The primary changes to the original Term Loan were as follows:
On March 29, 2024, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement with BroadOak (the “Third Amendment”). The primary changes to the Second Amendment were as follows:
The Third Amendment was treated as a debt modification which is accounted for prospectively. Since the Term Loan is carried at fair value under the fair value option, the Second Amendment did not result in any extinguishment gain or loss upon amendment, and the impact of the revised terms was incorporated into the Company’s first quarter 2024 fair value calculation.
The balance of the loan outstanding at June 30, 2024 was $7.4 million.
