DEBT
Debt as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was all current and was as follows (in thousands):
Insurance Financing In October 2023, the Company entered into a financing agreement with First Insurance Funding in order to fund a portion of its insurance policies for the upcoming policy year. The amount financed is $0.3 million, which incurs interest at a rate of 8.42% per annum. The Company is required to make monthly payments of $29,781 from November 2023 through July 2024. In November 2022, the Company entered into a finance agreement with First Insurance Funding in order to fund a portion of its insurance policies for the most recent policy year. The amount financed was $0.2 million, which incurred interest at a rate of 6.32% per annum. The Company was required to make monthly payments of $27,900 from November 2022 through July 2023. There was no outstanding balance as of March 31, 2024. Cultured Foods Notes Payable The Company assumed the outstanding notes payable of Cultured Foods. The notes payable to the prior owner of Cultured Foods was due within the next 12 months. The notes carried an interest of 9% per annum. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repaid the entire outstanding amount of the notes payable including interest. Note Payable In August 2022, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement with Streeterville, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to Streeterville the secured Streeterville Note in the original principal amount of $2.0 million. The Streeterville Note carried an original issuance discount of $400,000. The Company incurred additional debt issuance costs of $23,000. As a result, the Company received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $1.6 million in connection with the sale and issuance of the Streeterville Note. The Streeterville Note was scheduled to mature on May 19, 2023 and the Company was required to make weekly repayments to Streeterville on the Note in the following amounts: (a) $40,000 for the first 8 weeks after issuance; and (b) $56,000 thereafter until the Streeterville Note was paid in full. No interest was to accrue on the Streeterville Note until an occurrence of an Event of Default, as defined in Section 4 of the Streeterville Note, if ever. The Streeterville Note provided for customary events of default, including, among other things, the event of nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, a representation or warranty proving to have been incorrect when made, failure to perform or observe covenants within a specified period of time, a cross-default to certain other indebtedness of the Company, the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or any significant subsidiary, monetary judgment defaults of a specified amount and other defaults resulting in liability of a specified amount. In the event of an occurrence of an Event of Default by the Company, Streeterville could have declared all amounts owed under the Streeterville Note immediately due and payable. Also, a late fee and interest penalty of equal to either 22% per annum or the maximum rate allowable under law, whichever is lesser, could have been applied to any outstanding amount not paid when due or that remains outstanding while an Event of Default exists. The unpaid amount of the Streeterville Note, any interest, fees, charges and late fees accrued was due and payable in full within three trading days of receipt by the Company of any employee retention credit funds owed to the Company under the CARES Act, provided, further, that if at least $1.0 million in CARES Act proceeds were not remitted to Streeterville within ninety days of August 19, 2022, the outstanding balance under the Streeterville Note was to be increased by five percent (5%). The Company did not receive the CARES Act proceeds within 90 days of August 19, 2022; as a result, the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note was increased by five percent (5%). The Streeterville Note was secured by all of the Company’s assets as set forth in the Security Agreement dated August 19, 2022. The Company made principal payments to Streeterville of $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Subsequent to March 31, 2023, the Company repaid the entire remaining outstanding balance to Streeterville of $0.4 million. As a result, the Streeterville Note has been fully repaid and satisfied as of December 31, 2023, and the Company's obligations thereunder, were cancelled and terminated. |
