Note 7 – Convertible debentures and other current debt

 

On May 19, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with each of the purchasers that are parties thereto (each, including its successors and assigns, a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”) and JGB Collateral, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as collateral agent for the Purchasers (the “Agent”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers (i) 10% Original Issue Discount Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”) with an aggregate principal amount of $7,608 and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), for an exercise price of $2.31 per share, the average of the three (3) daily volume weighted average prices of the Common Stock as defined in the Purchase Agreement (“VWAP”) prior to the closing date (the “Warrants”), subject to adjustments as set forth in the Warrants, for a total purchase price of $7,000. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. The transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement were consummated on May 19, 2023. Pursuant to ASC 825, Fair Value Option, the Company made an irrevocable election at the time of issuance to report the Debentures at fair value with changes in fair value recorded through the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as other income (expense) in each reporting period.

  

Debentures

 

The Debentures bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum (which interest rate is increased to 18% per annum five days after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Debentures)), have a maturity date of May 20, 2024 and are convertible, at any time after their issuance date at the option of the Purchasers, into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $3.01 per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Debentures. Following the July 24, 2023 consummation of the Company’s sale of certain assets and assignment of certain liabilities of Enzo Clinical Labs to Labcorp pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated March 16, 2023, the Company prepaid $4,000 of the outstanding principal amount prior to July 31, 2023.

 

The Company’s obligations under the Debentures may be accelerated, at the Purchasers’ election, upon the occurrence of certain customary events of default. As of January 31, 2024 and July 31, 2023, there were no events of default. The Debentures contain customary representations, warranties and covenants including among other things and subject to certain exceptions, covenants that restrict the Company from incurring additional indebtedness, creating or permitting liens on assets, amending its charter documents and bylaws, repurchasing or otherwise acquiring more than a de minimis number of its Common Stock or equivalents thereof, repaying outstanding indebtedness, paying dividends or distributions, assigning or selling certain assets, making or holding any investments, and entering into transactions with affiliates.

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the convertible debentures measured at fair value on a recurring basis that use significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) and the related change in fair value expense recorded in the consolidated statement of operations during the six months ended January 31, 2024:

 

Fair value, July 31, 2023   $ 2,514  
Change in fair value of convertible debentures     711  
Fair value, January 31, 2024   $ 3,225  

 

During the three months ended January 31, 2024, the change in fair value expense recorded was $383. As of January 31, 2024, the outstanding principal of the convertible debentures was $3,608. Accrued interest as of January 31, 2024 was $29.

 

Security Agreement and Subsidiary Guarantees

 

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, on May 19, 2023, the Company, certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (“Guarantors”), the Purchasers and the Agent entered into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company and the Guarantors granted, for the benefit of the Purchasers, to secure the Company’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement and the Debentures.

 

Warrants

 

The Warrants are exercisable for five years from May 19, 2023, at an exercise price of $2.31 per share, which is the average of three (3) daily VWAPs prior to the closing date, subject, with certain exceptions, to adjustments in the event of stock splits, dividends, subsequent dilutive offerings and certain fundamental transactions, as more fully described in the Warrant.

  

Registration Rights Agreement

 

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, on May 19, 2023, the Company and the Purchasers entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which the Company is obligated to register the shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Debentures and the Warrants. The Company has registered the shares.
