On June 22, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with the Purchasers, including certain funds managed by Sabby Management, LLC and Broadfin Capital LLC (existing Company shareholders), in connection with a private placement. The Purchasers were issued Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 0.6 million shares of common stock, having an exercise price of $3.75 per share. We also issued $32.5 million aggregate principal amount of Debentures that, subject to certain ownership limitations and stockholder approval conditions, were convertible into 8,666,668 shares of 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. Refer to Note 8 for additional information on the terms of the Debentures and for information on the interest expense relating to the Debentures. On September 30, 2015, the Company repriced outstanding Warrants held by certain investors to reduce the exercise price to $3.75 per share.
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 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 principal 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. See Note 12 for additional information on Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.
On November 4, 2015, the Company entered into consulting agreements with two of its directors, Jeffrey F. O'Donnell, Sr. and Samuel E. Navarro, the terms of which are the same. Under the terms of their respective agreements, each director agrees to provide strategic support, advice and guidance to the Company and its management team in connection with the integration and operation of the expanded business, investor relations and internal and external business development activities. The consultant will make himself available to the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer and the management team on request at mutually convenient times and will report to the Board of Directors quarterly and otherwise when requested by the Board. The agreements had been extended through June 30 and December 31, 2017 for Mr. Navarro and Mr. O'Donnell, respectively. The directors were each to be paid an up-front fee of $40 for advice and services rendered prior to the date of the agreement, including advice related to the acquisition of the XTRAC and VTRAC assets and the structuring of the financing for that acquisition, a retainer of $10 per month, commencing November 10, 2015 and continuing on the tenth day of each month through the expiration of their respective agreements, and reimbursement of pre-approved, out-of-pocket expenses. The agreements expired per their terms on June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and no extensions or renewals of the agreement were entered into. The Company expensed $180 and $240 related to these agreements during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These amounts are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
