Related-Party Lines of Credit

 

In March 2013, the Company entered into the Line of Credit with available borrowings of up to $2,500,000. The Line of Credit was extended by an existing shareholder and member of our Board of Directors.  In March 2014, the Line of Credit’s borrowing was increased to an aggregate total of $3,500,000. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Amendment, the Holder has the right to convert up to $2.5 million of the outstanding balance of the Line of Credit into shares of the Company's Common Stock for $0.95 per share. Any remaining outstanding balance will be convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock for $2.25 per share. 

 

  As consideration for the initial Line of Credit, the Company issued to the Holder the Line of Credit Warrant, exercisable for 1,052,632 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Line of Credit Warrant had a term of two years from the date of issuance and an exercise price of $0.95 per share.  As consideration for entering into the Amendment, the Company issued to the Holder the Amendment Warrant, exercisable for 177,778 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Amendment Warrant expired on March 27, 2015 and had an exercise price of $2.25 per share.

 

The Company estimated the fair value of the Line of Credit Warrant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: term of two years, a risk free interest rate of 2.58%, a dividend yield of 0%, and volatility of 79%. The Company recorded the fair value of the Line of Credit Warrant as a deferred financing fee of approximately $580,000 to be amortized over the life of the line of credit agreement. The Company estimated the fair value of the Amendment Warrant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: term on one year, a risk free interest rate of 2.58%, a dividend yield of 0% and volatility of 74%. The Company recorded the fair value of the Amendment Warrant as an additional deferred financing fee of approximately $127,000 to be amortized over the life of the line of credit agreement.

 

 During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded an aggregate of approximately $41,000 and $182,000, respectively in deferred financing fee amortization expense which is recorded as a component of interest expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

    In April 2014, the Company and the Holder entered into the Second Amendment decrease the available borrowings to $3,000,000. Contemporaneous with the execution of the Second Amendment, the Company entered into the $500K Line of Credit with the Second Holder, which amount is convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock for $2.25 per share. As a result of these amendments, total available borrowings under aggregate lines of credit available to the Company remain unchanged at a total of $3,500,000. In connection with the Second Amendment, the Holder assigned and transferred to the Second Holder one-half of the 177,778 warrants issued by the Company to the Holder to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock, originally granted to the Holder upon execution of the Amendment.

   

    In December 2014, the Company and the Holder entered into the Third Amendment to increase the available borrowing to $5,000,000 and extend the maturity date of the Line of Credit to March 27, 2017. Also, as a result of the Third Amendment, the Holder has the right to convert up to $2,500,000 outstanding principal, plus any accrued but unpaid interest into shares of the Company’s Common Stock for $0.95 per share, the next $500,000 Outstanding Balance into shares of Common Stock for $2.25 per share and any remaining outstanding balance thereafter into shares of Common Stock for $2.30 per share. The Third Amendment also modified the definition of a “Qualified Financing” to mean a debt or equity financing resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $5,000,000.

 

Advances under the credit facility are made at the Company’s request.

 

As of December 31, 2014, advances made under the Line of Credit agreement aggregated $1,550,000 and there were no borrowings under the $500K Line of Credit. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company borrowed $750,000 under the Line of Credit and borrowed $0 under the $500K Line of Credit.  During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company repaid $350,000 in principal borrowings under the Line of Credit.

In February 2015, as a result of the Series E Financing discussed under Note 1 above, the Company issued 1,978 shares of Series E Preferred to the Holder of the Line of Credit to satisfy $1,950,000 in principal borrowings under the Line of Credit plus approximately $28,000 in accrued interest.  As a result of the Series E Financing, the Company’s borrowing capacity under the Line of Credit agreement was reduced to $3,050,000 with the maturity date unchanged and the $500K Line of Credit was terminated in accordance with its terms.

 

    The Company evaluated the lines of credit agreements and determined that the instruments contain a contingent beneficial conversion feature, i.e. an embedded conversion right that enables the holder to obtain the underlying Common Stock at a price below market value. The beneficial conversion feature is contingent as the terms of the conversion do not permit the Company to compute the number of shares that the holder would receive if the contingent event occurs (i.e. future borrowings under the line of credit agreement). The Company has considered the accounting for this contingent beneficial conversion feature using the guidance in ASC 470, Debt. The guidance in ASC 470 states that a contingent beneficial conversion feature in an instrument shall not be recognized in earnings until the contingency is resolved. The beneficial conversion features of future borrowings under the line of credit agreement will be measured using the intrinsic value calculated at the date the contingency is resolved using the conversion price and trading value of the Company’s Common Stock at the date the line of credit agreement was issued (commitment date). As of December 31, 2014, the Company had recorded approximately $296,000 in beneficial conversion feature as a debt discount and had amortized approximately $56,000 of such debt discount as a component of interest expense. Pursuant to additional borrowings made during the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recognized an additional $146,000 in beneficial conversion feature as debt discount. As a result of the Series E financing and retirement of all amounts outstanding under the line of credit, the Company recognized all remaining unamortized debt discount of approximately $385,000 as a component of interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2015.
