11. CONVERTIBLE DEBT OBLIGATIONS
Amounts owed pursuant to the Company’s convertible debt obligations are as follows:
On November 3, 2021, the Company sold senior secured convertible notes of the Company, in the aggregate original principal amount of $6,480,000 (the “GGH Notes”), for gross proceeds of $6,000,000. The GGH Notes are due and payable on the first anniversary of the issuance date (the “Maturity Date”), bear interest at 7% per annum and are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $3.50 (subject to adjustment for standard anti-dilution events). Pursuant to the original terms of the GGH Notes, beginning on February 7, 2022, the Company was to make nine monthly payments consisting of principal in the amount of $720,000, plus (i) accrued interest and (ii) a make-whole amount equal to the additional interest that would accrue if the entire GGH Notes principal remained outstanding through the Maturity Date. Holders of GGH Notes may convert any portion of outstanding and unpaid principal and interest at any time, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation.
On February 22, 2022, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with holders of GGH Notes. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company is able to defer monthly principal payments until May 7, 2022 and will make six monthly payments in the amount of $1,080,000, plus accrued interest and make-whole amount. As consideration for entering into the Exchange Agreement, $300 of aggregate principal amount the GGH Notes was exchanged for three-year warrants (the GGH Warrants”) for the purchase of an aggregate of 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.75 per share, which had an aggregate grant date value of $731,556. The Exchange Agreement was accounted for as a debt modification and the grant date value of the GGH Warrants was recorded as additional debt discount. See Note 18 – Subsequent Events, Convertible Debt Amendment for additional information.
The GGH Notes include several embedded features that require bifurcation. However, management has determined that the value of these bifurcated derivatives is de minimis as of November 3, 2021 (date of the agreement), December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022.
The GGH Notes rank senior to all outstanding and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries and are secured by all existing and future assets of the Company, as well as shares of common stock and certain options to purchase common stock of the Company owned by the President and CEO of the Company.
Holders of GGH Notes are entitled to certain registration rights, pursuant to a registration rights agreement between the holders of the GGH Notes and the Company, dated November 9, 2021.
Upon the issuance of the GGH Notes, the Company recorded a debt discount at issuance in the aggregate amount $950,813, consisting of (i) the $480,000 difference between the aggregate principal amount of the GGH Notes and the cash proceeds received, and (ii) financing costs in the aggregate amount of $446,813. The debt discount is being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the GGH Notes.
