NOTE 9 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In July 2017, we completed a $4.0 million private placement with John Schutte (sometimes referred to as the “Investor”), consisting of 8,912,655 units (“Units) of the Company, at a price of $0.4488 per Unit (the “Transaction). Each Unit consists of one share of Common Stock and a Warrant to purchase one fifth (0.2) of a share of Common Stock. The issue price of the Units was equal to 85% of the average last sale price of our Common Stock for the five trading days prior to completion of the Transaction. The Warrants are immediately exercisable at a price of $0.528 per share (which equals the average last sale price of the Company’s Common Stock for the five trading days prior to completion of the Transaction) and expire five years after issuance (subject to earlier expiration in event of certain acquisitions). We have assigned a relative fair value of $495 thousand to the warrants out of the total $4.0 million proceeds from the private placement transaction and have accounted these warrants as equity. The Transaction was completed through a private placement to an accredited investor and was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

Investor is a principal of MainPointe, a Kentucky limited liability company. In March 2017, we granted MainPointe an exclusive license to our Impede technology to commercialize our Nexafed® and Nexafed® Sinus Pressure + Pain Products in the United States and Canada for an upfront licensing fee of $2.5 million plus approximately $309 thousand for transferred inventory and equipment. The Company will receive a 7.5% royalty on sales of licensed products. MainPointe also has options to expand the territory and products covered for additional sums. Included in the reported revenue for the three month period ending March 31, 2018 is $8 thousand of royalty revenue from MainPointe. (See Note 3).

As part of the closing of the Transaction, the Company, Essex Woodlands Health Ventures V, L.P. (“Essex”) and Galen Partners III, L.P. (“Galen”) amended and restated the existing Voting Agreement including such parties to provide for the Investor to join as a party (as so amended, the “Second Amended and Restated Voting Agreement”). The Second Amended and Restated Voting Agreement provides that our Board of Directors shall remain comprised of no more than seven members (subject to certain exceptions), (i) one of whom is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, (ii) three of whom are independent under Nasdaq standards, and (iii) one of whom shall be designated by each of Essex, Galen and Investor, and the parties to such agreement would vote for such persons. The right of each of Essex, Galen and Investor to designate one director to our Board will continue as long as he or it and their affiliates collectively hold at least 600,000 shares of our Common Stock (including warrants exercisable for such shares). Immanuel Thangaraj is the designee of Essex. Galen has not designated a director and lost that right in December 2017 when it disposed of its shares. Investor has not designated a director as of the date of filing of this Report. Once such shareholder no longer holds such securities, the additional forfeited seat would become a seat for an independent director to thereafter be nominated to the Board of Directors from time to time by the then current directors and as applicable, to be elected by the directors to fill the vacancy created by the forfeited seat or submitted to the vote of shareholders at the Company’s next annual meeting.

During the second quarter of 2018, we borrowed $1.5 million from John Schutte and issued two promissory notes in that aggregate principal amount to him. See Note 16 for a discussion of this transaction.
