In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company agreed to issue warrants to each of Oxford and SVB to purchase that number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 4% of the amount loaned under the Loan Agreement by Oxford and SVB, respectively, divided by the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 10 trading days prior to funding, which average closing price is also the exercise price per share for the warrants. At the initial funding of the Term Loan Facility on July 30, 2015, the Company issued to Oxford a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 48,840 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Oxford Warrant”) and to SVB a warrant to purchase 48,840 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “SVB Warrant” and, together with the Oxford Warrant, the “Warrants”). The exercise price for each Warrant is $4.095 per share. The Warrants are immediately exercisable, and excluding certain mergers or acquisitions, will expire on July 30, 2025.
I.e., OCRX issued only 98K warrants (at an exercise price of $4.095) for the first $10M borrowed. My previous post assumed that OCRX would have to issue 800K warrants if the entire $20M were eventually borrowed, but the actual warrant issuance for the full $20M borrowed will likely be about 25% of that—or less, if the share price has risen when the second $10M tranche is borrowed.
The interest rate on the loan has a floor of 8.3% and there are termination fees of $300K for the first $10M tranche and $132.5K for the second $10M tranche (if borrowed). All told, this isn’t too bad, IMO.
