The total outstanding convertible debentures was exchanged for convertible Preferred C stock on September 20, 2017, thus there was no remaining outstanding balance as of September 30, 2017.
The Company issued $32,500 aggregate principal amount of Debentures (the "June 2015 Debentures") that, subject to certain ownership limitations and stockholder approval conditions, was convertible into 8,666,668 shares of Company common stock at an initial conversion price of $3.75 per share. The Debentures were bearing interest at the rate of 2.25% per year, and, unless previously converted, were to mature on the five-year anniversary of the date of issuance, June 22, 2020.
The June 2015 Debentures included a beneficial conversion feature valued at $27,300 that was recorded as a discount to the debentures. On the date of issuance the beneficial conversion feature value was calculated as the difference resulting from subtracting the conversion price of $3.75 from $6.90, the opening market value of the Company's common stock following the announcement of the transaction, multiplied by the number of common shares into which the June 2015 Debentures were convertible. This discount was being amortized over the five year life of the June 2015 Debentures using the effective interest method. The embedded conversion feature contained an anti-dilution provision that allowed for downward exercise price adjustments in certain situations. The embedded conversion feature was not bifurcated as it did not meet all of the elements of a derivative.
On July 21, 2014, the Company entered into a definitive Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with institutional investors (the "Investors") providing for the issuance of Senior Secured Convertible Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $15,000, due, subject to the terms therein, in July 2019 (the "July 2014 Debentures"), and warrants (the "July 2014 Series A Warrants") to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,239,769 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an exercise price of $12.25 per share expiring in July 2019. The July 2014 Debentures were bearing interest at an annual rate of 4%, payable quarterly or upon conversion into shares of common stock. The Debentures were convertible at any time into an aggregate of 1,169,595 shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $12.825 per share. The Company's obligations under the July 2014 Debentures was secured by a first priority lien on all of the Company's intellectual property pursuant to the terms of a security agreement ("Security Agreement") dated July 21, 2014 among the Company and the Investors. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors pursuant to which the Company was obligated to file a registration statement to register for resale the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock (See Note 8, Warrants) and Debentures and upon exercise of the Warrants. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed a registration statement on August 19, 2014, which was declared effective by the SEC on October 20, 2014 (File No. 333-198249).
For financial reporting purposes, out of the $15,000 funded by the Investors on July 21, 2014 $5,296 was allocated first to the Warrants issued, then $4,565 to the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature on the July 2014 Debentures. The balance was further reduced by the fair value of warrants issued to the placement agent for services rendered of $491, resulting in an initial carrying value of the Debentures of $4,647. The initial debt discount on the July 2014 Debentures totaled $10,353 and was being amortized using the effective interest method over the five year life of the July 2014 Debentures.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the investors converted debentures amounting to $262 into 70,000 shares of common stock for the June 2015 note. The debt discount and deferred financing cost adjustment resulting from the conversions increased interest expense by $197 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
As a condition of the new note facility (See Note 7, Long-term Debt) the Debentures from both the 2014 and 2015 financings were amended. The Debentures holders' first priority lien was subordinated to the new term note facility. Additionally, as a condition of the term note facility, the maturity date of both Debentures was extended to June 30, 2021 and treated as a modification.
On June 6, 2017, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement") with the holders of its 2.25% Senior Series A Secured Convertible Debentures due June 30, 2021 and 4% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures due July 30, 2021, pursuant to which the holders have agreed to exchange all of such outstanding debentures into shares of newly created Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. The elimination of the senior secured debt will also eliminate the Company's obligation to pay approximately $4,000 of interest payments over the next four years. The stockholders approved the exchange at the stockholders' meeting held on September 14, 2017. The closing of the exchange was effective on September 20, 2017 and $40,465 of principle was exchanged for 40,482 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. In accordance with ASC Topic 470, Debt, the aforementioned exchange was treated as an extinguishment of debt. As there was no intrinsic value for the conversion feature on the date of extinguishment, none of the proceeds were allocated to the extinguishment of the beneficial conversion feature. As such, the difference between the fair value of the convertible preferred stock issued (determined based on the market value of the underlying common stock) and the net carrying value of the convertible debentures (adjusted for unamortized premium discount), of $11,799 was recognized as a loss on extinguishment of debentures.
Other than the limitations on conversions to keep each such holders beneficial ownership below 9.99%, the terms of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock generally bestow the same rights to each holder as such holder would receive if they are common stock shareholder and are not redeemable by the holders, except the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock shares do not have voting rights. The Series C Convertible Preferred Stock have the same level of subordination as common stock. Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 and is convertible into 372 shares of common stock (at a conversion price equal to $2.69) for a total of approximately 15,049,000 shares of common stock.
