Why go through the hassle of pre-paying convertible notes if funding was still needed?
For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we received gross cash proceeds of approximately $33.9 million with respect to prepayments under the November 2017 Investor Notes and issued 705.8 million (23,362 million pre-split) shares with respect to the conversion of the November 2017 Notes, including shares related to the make-whole interest provisions of those notes. From September 30, 2018 through November 14, 2018, we received gross cash proceeds of approximately $4.1 million with respect to prepayments under the November 2017 and January 2018 Investor Notes and issued an additional 233.1 million shares with respect to the conversion of the November 2017 Notes and January 2018 Notes. We used the proceeds from the prepayments of such investor notes to redeem approximately $24,600,000 of the unrestricted principal of our June 2018 Convertible Notes. As a result of such redemptions, as of November 13, 2018, there was approximately $0 million of unrestricted principal (including make-whole interest) outstanding under the June 2018 Convertible Notes. Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the October Exchange Agreement and the netting of the other June 2018 Investor Notes by the other holders of the June 2018 Investor Notes against their corresponding June 2018 Convertible Notes, all of the June 2018 Convertible Notes have been cancelled.
