On June 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Hercules which provided the Company with a $20 million term loan. On June 30, 2014, the Company also entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Magna pursuant to which the Company sold to Magna an initial unsecured senior convertible note (“Initial Convertible Note”) with an original principal amount of $2.9 million for a purchase price of $2.5 million. Additionally, on August 11, 2014, the Company sold to Magna an additional unsecured senior convertible note (“Additional Convertible Note”) with an original principal amount of $3.5 million for a purchase price of $3.5 million. The Initial Convertible Note and the Additional Convertible Note are collectively referred to as the Magna Convertible Notes.
Hercules Term Loan
The Hercules Term Loan matures on January 1, 2018. The Hercules Term Loan included a $200,000 closing fee, which was paid to Hercules Technology on the closing date of the loan.  The closing fee has been recorded as a debt discount and is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the loan. The Hercules Term Loan also includes a non-refundable final payment fee of $1.5 million.  The final payment fee is being accrued and recorded to interest expense over the life of the loan.
The Hercules Term Loan bears interest at the rate of the greater of either (i) the prime rate plus 7.7%, and (ii) 10.95%.  Interest accrues from the closing date of the loan and interest payments are due monthly. Principal payments are required commencing August 1, 2015 and are to be made in 30 equal installments of approximately $700,000, with the remainder due at maturity. 
The Company’s obligations to Hercules are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of its assets, including intellectual property. The Hercules Term Loan contains certain covenants related to restrictions on payments to certain Company affiliates, financial reporting requirements and a minimum liquidity covenant that requires the Company to maintain cash and cash equivalents of not less than $9 million.  Although the Company was in compliance with the liquidity covenant at June 30, 2015, the Company anticipates that it will be non-compliant with the liquidity covenant during the fourth quarter of 2015 if additional financing is not obtained, and has therefore classified the entire obligation as a current liability.
On June 30, 2015, the Company received written notice from Hercules that an event of default had occurred with respect to the Hercules Term Loan. The Hercules notice indicates that an event of default has occurred as the result of, without limitation, that certain Event of Default Redemption Notice dated June 18, 2015 transmitted by MG Partners II Ltd. (“Magna”) to the Company (the “Magna Notice”). The Hercules notice provides that the notice was transmitted solely for informational purposes at this time and that Hercules reserves all of its rights under the Loan and Security Agreement. Hercules has not accelerated or demanded any payment at this time.
Magna Convertible Notes
On April 2, 2015, we entered into an Amendment and Exchange Agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) with Magna. The Amendment Agreement provides for the issuance by the Company to Magna of new senior convertible notes (the “Exchange Convertible Notes”) in exchange for the Initial Convertible Note, the Additional Convertible Note and a warrant issued to Magna ("Magna Warrant") to purchase 568,889 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $4.65. The exchange resulted in the cancellation of the Initial Convertible Note, Additional Convertible Note and Magna Warrant.
The outstanding principal amount of the Exchange Convertible Notes was $4.3 million at June 30, 2015. $798,000 and $3.5 million of the Exchange Convertible Notes mature on June 30, 2016 and August 11, 2016, respectively, and accrue interest at an annual rate of 6.0%.
The Exchange Convertible Notes are convertible at any time after issuance, in whole or in part, at Magna's option, into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $1.00 per share or (ii) at an alternative conversion price equal to the greater of (x) $0.20 and (y) the lower of (i) the conversion price then in effect and (ii) a price equal to 80% of the lowest daily VWAP of the common stock during the five consecutive Trading Day period prior to such Conversion Date (the “Alternate Conversion Price”).
In the event on any conversion date the applicable conversion price for that date is greater than the closing bid price as of the trading day immediately preceding such applicable conversion date (a “Make-Whole Conversion”) and, thereafter, the holder fails to resell such shares of common stock at a price greater than such conversion price, the holder may be entitled to a make-whole of additional shares of common stock (the “Make-Whole Shares”) with respect to such Make-Whole Conversions. The number of Make-Whole Shares to be issued, if any, with respect to such Make-Whole Conversions shall equal the greater of zero and the quotient of (1) the difference of the (x) the aggregate amount of principal and interest of the Exchange Convertible Note converted into shares of common stock during the applicable quarterly period (which excludes the last three trading days in such calendar quarter and includes the excluded trading days from the prior calendar quarter, if any) in which a Make-Whole Conversion occurred (less the aggregate amount of principal and interest relating to shares of common stock that have not been resold during such applicable quarterly period) minus (y) the aggregate gross consideration received by such holder on the resale of any shares of common stock received by such holder on conversions occurring during that applicable quarterly period divided by (2) the Alternate Conversion Price on the date of the Make-Whole Conversion. If the Alternate Conversion Price on the date of the Make-Whole Conversion is less than the closing bid price as of the trading day immediately preceding such date, the issuance of the Make-Whole Shares is deemed to be an additional Make-Whole Conversion for all purposes under the Exchange Convertible Note. The Company’s obligation to issue additional Make-Whole Shares shall terminate at such time as the aggregate gross consideration received by the holder from the resale of shares of common stock issued on conversions exceeds the sum of the total principal amount of the Exchange Convertible Notes and the sum of all accrued and unpaid interest on such notes.
During the six months ended June 30, 2015, Magna converted a total of $202,000 of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes into 373,000 shares of common stock. The Company recorded a loss upon extinguishment of $79,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Pursuant to NASDAQ listing requirements, the securities purchase agreement with Magna contains a provision restricting the number of shares issuable to Magna on conversions to 19.9% of the number of outstanding shares of the Company on June 30, 2014 without obtaining stockholder approval to exceed the 19.9% threshold. Magna has reached that threshold. In May 2015, the Company’s stockholders voted against a proposal to permit Magna to exceed the 19.9% threshold. As a result, until stockholder approval is obtained, we may not issue any additional shares of common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes.
On June 19, 2015, the Company received written notice from Magna that an event of default had occurred with respect to the Magna Convertible Notes and underlying agreements. Magna alleges in the Notice of Default that it has been made aware that certain of the representations and warranties made by the Company in the underlying agreements were not true and correct in all material respects as of the date of signing nor as of the date of closing of the issuance of the Original Notes and the Exchange Notes. Magna has notified the Company of its election of its rights to declare the entire outstanding principal amount and other amounts outstanding under the Exchanged Notes to accelerate and to become immediately due and payable and has demanded payment in the amount of $6.5 million to be made to Magna no later than June 25, 2015. The Company disagrees with Magna’s claims that an event of default has occurred and asserts that no event of default has occurred or is continuing, and consequently the demand for payment is invalid. The Company has invited Magna to immediately reconsider and to rescind its Notice of Default and request for payment.
