Credit Facility
– The Company has a credit facility, as amended in
February 2017 (
the “Credit Facility”), that consists of (a) term loan facilities in an aggregate maximum principal amount of
$40,000,000
comprised of (i) a
$15,000,000
Term Loan A Commitment, which was funded in full on
March 18, 2016, (
ii) a
$12,500,000
Term Loan B Commitment, which is available for draw
June 30, 2017
through
December 31, 2017,
and (iii) a
$12,500,000
Term Loan C Commitment, which is available for draw
December 31, 2017
through
June 30, 2018 (
collectively, the “Term Loans”); and (b) a Revolving Line Commitment in a maximum principal amount of
$5,000,000
(the “Revolving Loans” and collectively with the Term Loans, the “Loans”). Availability of the Term Loan B Commitment is subject to the Company achieving consolidated trailing
six
-month revenues of at least
$13,500,000,
and the availability of the Term Loan C Commitment is subject to the Company achieving consolidated trailing
six
-month revenues of at least
$20,000,000.
 
Based on the Company’s sequential quarterly revenue growth since the commercial release of its Algovita system into the United States market, and on its expectations of future and continued revenue growth, the Company believes that it should be able to achieve these consolidated trailing
six
-month revenue thresholds during the relevant periods, although there can be
no
assurances that the Company will be able to do so due to unforeseen obstacles that
may
negatively affect its business. 
The Company has the right to draw on the Term Loan B and C Commitments within
60
days of achieving the applicable revenue threshold. The Revolving Line Commitment is subject to a borrowing base of
80%
of the aggregate amount of eligible accounts receivable of the Company, which advance rate and eligibility criteria
may
be modified from time to time based on periodic collateral examinations.
 
The Term Loans bear interest at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus
4.15%,
with a floor of
7.65%.
At
June 30, 2017
the interest rate on borrowings under the term loan was
8.15%.
The Company pays monthly accrued interest only on the Term Loans through
December 2017 (
or
March 2018
if the Term Loan B Commitment is funded), and thereafter the Company will pay monthly accrued interest on the Term Loans plus equal payments of principal for
33
months (or
30
months if the Term Loan B Commitment is funded). At the maturity of the Term Loans, on
September 1, 2020,
all principal on the Term Loans then outstanding, plus an additional
7.75%
of the funded loan amounts (the “Final Payment”), will be due and payable. This Final Payment has been treated as an in substance discount and will be amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the loan. The Revolving Loans bear interest at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus
3.45%,
with a floor of
6.95%.
The Company pays monthly accrued interest only on the Revolving Loans until maturity on
March 18, 2018,
at which time all principal on the Revolving Loans will be due and payable. There were
no
borrowings on the Revolving Loans as of
June 30, 2017. 
 
On
March 18, 2016
the Company paid an arrangement fee of
$1,125,000
to Piper Jaffray Companies (“Piper Jaffray”), which equals
2.50%
of the aggregate principal amount of the Credit Facility, a commitment fee of
$200,000
for all of the Term Loan A, B, and C Commitments, and
one
-half of a
$25,000
commitment fee for the Revolving Loans, the remaining
one
-half of which was due and paid on the
one
year anniversary of the initial closing. In connection with the amendment dated
February 14, 2017,
the Company also paid an amendment fee of
$25,000
plus expenses of the lenders. The Term Loan B Commitment and the Term Loan C Commitment are subject to a non-use fee of
2%
of the amount of such commitment if the commitment becomes available, but the Company declines to borrow the Term Loans thereunder. If any Term Loans are voluntarily prepaid prior to their scheduled maturity, the Company must pay, in addition to the Final Payment, a prepayment fee equal to
3%
of the prepaid principal if paid in the
first
year after the initial closing,
2%
of the prepaid principal if paid in the
second
year after the initial closing, and
1%
of the prepaid principal if paid thereafter.
 
The Loans are secured by a
first
priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, including, without limitation, all cash, deposit accounts, accounts receivable, equipment, inventory, contract rights, and the Company’s real property located in Blaine, Minnesota, but excluding all intellectual property of the Company (other than accounts receivable and proceeds of intellectual property). The Company’s intellectual property is subject to a negative pledge. The Company must maintain its primary operating and investment accounts with Silicon Valley Bank, which accounts are subject to customary control agreements.
 
The Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties, reporting and other covenants for credit facilities of this kind including prohibitions on the payment of cash dividends on the Company’s capital stock and restrictions on mergers, sales of assets, investments, incurrence of liens, incurrence of indebtedness and transactions with affiliates. If the lenders fund the Term Loan B Commitment, the Company will be subject to a quarterly financial covenant requiring the Company to achieve consolidated revenues of at least
75%
of Nuvectra’s forecasts that have been previously approved by the lenders. The events of default in the Credit Facility are customary for credit facilities of this kind, and include failure to pay interest or principal, breaches of affirmative and negative covenants, a material adverse change occurring, and cross defaults to other material agreements of the Company.
 
As a condition to the lenders’ funding the Loans under the Credit Facility, concurrently with the funding under the Term Loan A Commitment on
March 18, 2016, (
i) the Company issued to Oxford Finance LLC a warrant to purchase
56,533
shares of Nuvectra common stock at an exercise price of
$5.97
per share, which warrant is exercisable until
March 18, 2026,
and (ii) the Company issued to Silicon Valley Bank a warrant to purchase
56,533
shares of Nuvectra common stock at an exercise price of
$5.97
per share, which warrant is exercisable until
March 18, 2026.
The fair value of the warrants on the date of grant totaled approximately
$0.2
million and was recorded as a discount on long-term debt and as additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, as the warrants met the criteria under the relevant accounting standard for treatment as an equity instrument. The debt discount will be amortized over the term of the Term Loan A Commitment.
 
Upon the funding of each of the Term Loan B Commitment and the Term Loan C Commitment, as applicable, Oxford Finance LLC and Silicon Valley Bank will each be entitled to additional warrants for the purchase of Nuvectra common stock. The number of shares under each warrant will be equal to the amount of the Term Loan made by each lender multiplied by
4.50%
and divided by the then current trading price of Nuvectra common shares. The exercise price of the warrants will be equal to the trading price of Nuvectra common shares on the date of funding. The fair value of these future warrants as of
June 30, 2017
was approximately
$0.6
million and is recorded in other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. These warrants were classified as a derivative liability because the Company did
not
meet the criteria under the relevant accounting standard for treatment as equity instruments. As a result, the derivative liability warrants will be remeasured to its fair value at the end of each reporting period until it meets the requirements for equity treatment or is cancelled. See Note
10
