NOTE 9 – DEBT

On April 24, 2019, we entered into a Financing Agreement, as amended, or the Financing Agreement, with TPG Specialty Lending, Inc., as administrative agent, or the Administrative Agent, various lenders from time to time party thereto, and certain of our subsidiaries party thereto from time to time as guarantors, which provides us with up to a $300,000,000 first lien secured term loan credit facility, or the Facility. The Facility provides for availability to us in three tranches: (i) $200,000,000 was drawn upon entering into the Financing Agreement; (ii) $50,000,000 was drawn on February 18, 2020 following our achievement of more than $11,000,000 in net revenues from IMVEXXY, BIJUVA and ANNOVERA for the fourth quarter of 2019 and (iii) $50,000,000 was previously available to us in the Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion either contemporaneously with the delivery of our financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 or at such earlier date as the Administrative Agent may have consented to. We and the Administrative Agent are not moving forward with the undrawn $50,000,000 tranche under the Financing Agreement, which was designed to be drawn following the successful full commercial launch of ANNOVERA in the second quarter of 2020, due to the pause in the launch timing caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Administrative Agent has agreed to continue to discuss with us the terms upon which additional financing could be made available to us by the Administrative Agent in the future at our request and in its discretion. Borrowings under the Facility accrue interest at either (i) 3-month LIBOR plus 7.75%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 2.70% or (ii) the prime rate plus 6.75%, subject to a prime rate floor of 5.2% as selected by us. Interest on amounts borrowed under the Facility is payable quarterly. The outstanding principal amount of the Facility is payable in four equal quarterly installments beginning on June 30, 2023, with the Facility maturing on March 31, 2024. We have the right to prepay borrowings under the Facility in whole or in part at any time, subject to a prepayment fee on the principal amount being prepaid of (i) 30.0% for the first two years following the initial funding date of the applicable borrowing, (ii) 5.0% for the third year following the initial funding date of the applicable borrowing, (iii) 3.0% for the fourth year following the initial funding date of the applicable borrowing and (iv) 1.0% for the fifth year following the initial funding date of the applicable borrowing but prior to March 31, 2024. In connection with the initial borrowing under the Facility, we paid, for the benefit of the lenders, a facility fee equal to 2.5% of the initial amount borrowed and will be required to pay such a facility fee in connection with any subsequent borrowings under the Facility. We are also required to pay the Administrative Agent and the lenders an annual administrative fee in addition to other fees and expenses. The Financing Agreement contains customary mandatory prepayments, restrictions and covenants applicable to us that are customary for financings of this type. Among other requirements, we are required to (i) maintain a minimum unrestricted cash balance of $60,000,000, and (ii) achieve certain minimum consolidated net revenue amounts attributable to commercial sales of our IMVEXXY, BIJUVA and ANNOVERA products beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2020. The Financing Agreement also includes other representations, warranties, indemnities and events of default that are customary for financings of this type, including an event of default relating to a change of control of the Company. Upon or after an event of default, the Administrative Agent and the lenders may declare all or a portion of our obligations under the Financing Agreement to be immediately due and payable and exercise other rights and remedies provided for under the Financing Agreement. The obligations of our company and its subsidiaries under the Financing Agreement are secured, subject to customary permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions, by a first priority perfected security interest in all existing and after acquired assets of our company and its subsidiaries. The obligations under the Financing Agreement will be guaranteed by each of our future direct and indirect subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.

On May 1, 2018, we entered into a Credit and Security Agreement, or the Credit Agreement, with MidCap Financial Trust, or MidCap, as agent, or Agent, and as lender, and the additional lenders party thereto from time to time (together with MidCap as a lender, the Lenders), as amended. The Credit Agreement provided a secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200,000,000, or the Term Loan. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Term Loan was available to be made in three separate tranches, with each tranche to be made available to us, at our option, upon our achievement of certain milestones. Amounts borrowed under the Term Loan bore interest at a rate equal to the sum of (i) one-month LIBOR (subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.50%) plus (ii) 7.75% per annum.

On April 24, 2019, we terminated the Credit Agreement. A portion of the initial tranche of borrowing under the Financing Agreement in the amount of approximately $81,661,000 was used to repay all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement, which included a prepayment fee of 4%, a repayment fee of 4% and other fees and expenses payable to the lenders under the Credit Agreement. As a result of the termination of the Credit Agreement, we recorded $10,057,632 in loss on extinguishment of debt in the second quarter of 2019. Interest expense for the six months ending June 30, 2019 related to the Credit Agreement was $1,816,747. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, and prior to the repayment of the Credit Agreement, we amortized $120,146 of deferred financing fees as interest expense in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2020, we had $250,000,000 in borrowings outstanding under the Financing Agreement, which are classified as long-term debt in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. We incurred $7,902,270 in deferred financing fees related to the Financing Agreement. Deferred financing fees related to the entire Financing Agreement have been allocated pro rata between the funded and unfunded tranches. Allocated deferred financing fees related to the two tranches of borrowings that we received of $7,626,891 have been reflected as a debt discount and are accreted to interest expense using the effective interest method. Deferred financing fees associated with an unfunded tranche are deferred as assets until such tranche has been drawn. As of June 30, 2020, deferred financing fees related to the unfunded tranche of $50,000,000 were included in other current assets in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we amortized $373,034 and $692,442, respectively, of deferred financing fees related to the two tranches that have been received as interest expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we amortized $196,734, of deferred financing fees related to the Financing Agreement as interest expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Interest on amounts borrowed under the Financing Agreement is due and payable quarterly in arrears. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $6,653,819 and $12,596,458, respectively. The overall effective interest rate under the Financing Agreement was approximately 11% as of June 30, 2020.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying value of our debt consisted of the following:

	June 30, 2020			December 31, 2019
Financing Agreement	$	250,000,000		$	200,000,000
Debt discount and financing fees		(6,198,295	)		(5,365,357	)

On April 27, 2020, we received a loan pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), as administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The loan in the principal amount of $6,477,094 (the “PPP Loan”) was disbursed by Bank of America, NA, a national banking association, pursuant to a promissory note issued by the Company. Although we believed, in good faith, we were qualified for the PPP Loan under the available regulations, as a result of newly-issued guidance, particularly with respect to publicly traded companies receiving funding under the CARES Act, we voluntarily returned the PPP Loan proceeds on May 14, 2020.
