Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
On February 2, 2016, the Issuer entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Boyalife (Hong Kong) Limited, a Hong Kong company (“Boyalife HK”) and Boyalife Investment, Inc. (“Boyalife Investment”, and together with Boyalife HK, the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to issue to issue to the Investors, in two closings, Shares, senior secured three-year convertible debentures, and a five-year warrant to purchase additional Shares, as further described below. The transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are referred to as the “Boyalife Financing” for purposes hereof.
CUSIP No: 88362L209 | 13D | Page 6 of 10 Pages |
In the Boyalife Financing, which closed in two tranches on February 13 and February 16, 2016, (i) Boyalife HK purchased 1,634 Shares, for a purchase price of $1,530.00 per share (after giving effect to the Issuer’s 1-for-20 reverse stock split on March 4, 2016, 1-for-10 reverse stock split on June 4, 2019, and 1-for-forty-five reverse stock split on December 22, 2022, collectively the “Reverse Stock Splits”), (ii) Boyalife Investment purchased Secured Convertible Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $12.5 million initially convertible into approximately 8,167 Shares after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Splits (the “Debentures”), and (iii) Boyalife HK acquired a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 7,843 additional Shares at an exercise price of $3,600.00 per share (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Splits) for a period of five years (the “Warrant”).
In connection with the Boyalife Financing, the Issuer also entered into a Nomination and Voting Agreement with the Investors (the “Nomination Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Nomination Agreement, for so long as the Debentures remained outstanding and Boyalife HK owned of record or beneficially at least twenty percent (20%) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, Boyalife HK had the right to designate one member to the Issuer’s Board of Directors. The Nomination Agreement further provided that, if upon and following the conversion of all of the principal and interest outstanding under the Debentures the Investors owned, in the aggregate, at least 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, the Investors would have the right to designate up to a maximum of three members to the Issuer’s Board of Directors. The Nomination Agreement was amended and restated on April 16, 2018, as described below.
On August 22, 2016, the Issuer elected to convert all outstanding principal, together and interest accrued and otherwise payable (including the interest that would have accrued up to and including maturity) under the Debentures into an aggregate of 13,562 Shares (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Splits).
On December 26, 2016, Boyalife Investment sold and transferred all 13,562 Shares held by it to Boyalife HK for a price per share equal to $1,134.00 (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Splits), resulting in Boyalife HK holding an aggregate of 15,196 Shares (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Splits).
On March 6, 2017, the Issuer entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Boyalife Investment Fund II, Inc., which granted to the Issuer the right to borrow up to $5,000,000 any time prior to March 6, 2022 (the “Debt Facility”). On September 13, 2017, the Issuer and Boyalife Investment Fund II, Inc. entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement increasing the maximum borrowing availability thereunder from $5.0 million to $10.0 million. The Debt Facility originally matured on March 6, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”). Interest accrues under the Debt Facility at a rate of 22% per annum, simple interest, with interest being payable annually.
On April 16, 2018, the Issuer entered into an amendment to the Debt Facility with Boyalife Asset Holding II, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Boyalife Asset Holding II”), the successor by merger to Boyalife Investment Fund II, Inc. (“Lender”). In connection with the April 2018 amendment to the Debt Facility, the Issuer and Lender entered into a First Amended and Revolving Restated Credit Agreement (as amended to date, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) and a Second Amended and Restated Convertible Promissory Note (as amended to date, the “Amended Note”). The Amended Credit Agreement and Amended Note modified and amended the Debt Facility as follows:
● |
The Lender was granted the right to convert, at any time, outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the Debt Facility into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price that was initially equal to $724.50 per share (after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Splits) and is equal to $6.30 per share as of January 31, 2023, subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, reverse stock splits, and the like (the “Fixed Conversion Price”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Amended Note is converted after the Maturity Date, the conversion price of the Amended Note will be the lower of the Fixed Conversion Price or an amount equal to 90% of the average volume-weighted average price of our common stock during the 10 trading days immediately prior to the Maturity Date. Prior to the April 2018 amendment, the Debt Facility was convertible by the Lender only upon maturity of the obligation. |
CUSIP No: 88362L209 | 13D | Page 7 of 10 Pages |
● |
If the Issuer in the future issues shares of Common Stock, or is deemed to issue shares of Common Stock, prior to the full payment or conversion of the Amended Note for a price per share lower than the Fixed Conversion Price then in effect, the Fixed Conversion Price will be reduced to the price per share paid in the future issuance, with certain customary exceptions for equity plan issuances and issuances pursuant to certain strategic transactions. As a result of adjustments through January 31, 2023, the conversion price of the Amended Note was $2.87 per Share as of January 31, 2023. |
In connection with Amended Credit Agreement, on April 16, 2018, the Issuer and Boyalife HK entered into a First Amended and Restated Nomination and Voting Agreement (the “Amended Nomination Agreement”), which amends and restates the above-described Nomination Agreement originally entered into on February 13, 2016. The Amended Nomination Agreement provides that Boyalife HK will have the right to designate a number of members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer that is in proportion to the “Boyalife Ownership Percentage”, which is Boyalife HK’s and its affiliates’ combined percentage ownership of outstanding common stock, treating as outstanding any shares of common stock underlying convertible securities that are immediately exercisable by Boyalife HK and its affiliates’ (including under the Amended Note) without any further payment. The Amended Nomination Agreement will terminate according to its terms when and if the Boyalife Ownership Percentage falls below 20%.
On May 7, 2018, the Issuer and Boyalife Asset Holding II entered into an Amendment No. 1 to the Amended Credit Agreement pursuant to which the Issuer granted to Boyalife Asset Holding II a security interest in shares held by the Issuer of ThermoGenesis Corp., a subsidiary of the Issuer, to secure repayment of the Amended Note.
On December 26, 2019, Boyalife HK sold to Boyalife Asset Holding II an aggregate of 15,196 Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $2,227,134 (or $146.56 per share, as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Splits) and warrants to purchase 7,843 shares (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Splits) of issuer common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $10.00. Accordingly, the transaction resulted in merely a change in the form of beneficial ownership of the subject Shares. The warrants expired on February 16, 2021.
On December 20, 2019, Boyalife Asset Holding II sold to a third party in a private transaction a participation interest in the Amended Note. Boyalife Asset Holding II sold to the third party a participation interest in the Convertible Note equal to $1,080,000 in face value of the Amended Note plus interest accruing thereon after December 20, 2019. Boyalife Asset Holding II retains sole voting and dispositive power over the Amended Note and is therefore deemed to own all Shares issuable upon any conversion of the Amended Note.
On March 4, 2022, the Issuer and Boyalife Asset Holding II entered into an Amendment No. 1 to the Amended Note, together with an Amendment No. 2 to the Amended Credit Agreement, to amend the maturity date thereunder to March 6, 2023 and to provide for payment on March 6, 2023 of accrued but unpaid interest through March 6, 2023 and to provide for payment of accrued interest thereafter on December 31 of each year.
On July 28, 2022, Dr. Xu, Boyalife Asset Holding II, and Boyalife Group consummated a transaction pursuant to which (i) Boyalife Asset Holding II sold to Boyalife Group all 272,913 Shares held by Boyalife Asset Holding II for a price of $9.45 per Share (as adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Splits), and (ii) Boyalife Asset Holding II sold to Boyalife Group all of its interest under the Amended Note and Debt Facility for an aggregate price of $7,000,000, which was the outstanding principal amount of the Amended Note as of July 28, 2022. Boyalife Asset Holding II is wholly owned by Boyalife Group, and Boyalife Group is wholly owned by Dr. Xu. The purpose of this transaction was to effect an internal reorganization of the personal entities through which Dr. Xu beneficially holds his Shares and the Amended Note, and, accordingly, this transaction merely represented a change in the form of Dr. Xu’s beneficial ownership in the Issuer and did not result in any change in the amount of Dr. Xu’s beneficial ownership. As a result of this transaction, Boyalife Asset Holding II no longer holds any securities of the Issuer.
CUSIP No: 88362L209 | 13D | Page 8 of 10 Pages |
On January 31, 2023, the Issuer entered into an amendment to a convertible promissory note held by a third party, which amendment resulted in the change in the conversion price of the Amended Note.
On March 15, 2023, the Issuer entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor, pursuant to which the Issuer, among other things, agreed to issue and sell to the investor 125,000 shares of Common Stock, as well as certain warrants and pre-funded warrants. This offering closed on March 20, 2023. The issuance of the 125,000 shares of Common Stock resulted in the change in the respective ownership interests of the Reporting Persons reflected herein.
On July 31, 2023, the Issuer entered into an amendment to a convertible promissory note held by a third party, which amendment resulted in the change in the conversion price of the Amended Note to $1.07.
On September 28, 2023, Boyalife Group converted a total of $700,000 of the outstanding accrued interest under the Amended Note into an aggregate of 654,206 Shares.
On November 17, 2023, Boyalife Group sold an aggregate of 600,000 Shares at a price of $1.02 to four separate buyers.
