Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Highbridge Loan Agreement

 

On April 21, 2020, Senseonics Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and Senseonics, Incorporated, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (together with the Company, “Senseonics”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Highbridge Loan Agreement”) with certain funds managed by Highbridge Capital Management, LLC (“Highbridge”), as the lenders (together with the other lenders from time to time party thereto, the “Lenders”) and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, SCB, as collateral agent.

 

Pursuant to the Highbridge Loan Agreement, the Company may borrow up to an aggregate of $20.0 million in aggregate principal through the issuance and sale of First Lien Secured Notes due October 2021 (the “First Lien Notes”). The first tranche of borrowing, in which the Company will issue and sell First Lien Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million, is expected to close on or about April 24, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), subject to customary closing conditions. Under the terms of the Highbridge Loan Agreement, the Company may issue up to an additional $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of First Lien Notes in a subsequent closing, conditioned upon the effectiveness of the registration statement described below. In connection with the Highbridge Loan Agreement, the Company has also agreed to issue 1,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) to the Lenders as a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee Shares”) on the Closing Date. The Company expects to use the proceeds of the First Lien Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The First Lien Notes are secured, senior obligations of Senseonics Interest in cash at the annual rate of 12% or, at the Company’s option, payment in kind at an annual rate of 13%, on the First Lien Notes will be payable monthly in arrears. The maturity date for the First Lien Notes will be October 24, 2021 (the “First Lien Maturity Date”), unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms. The obligations under the First Lien Notes are secured by substantially all assets of Senseonics.

 

The Company will have the right to prepay the First Lien Notes at any time, subject to a prepayment premium, which in certain circumstances the Company may elect to pay in common stock, equal to the aggregate amount of interest payments through maturity. However, if the date of payment in cash of such prepayment premium is on or before August 22, 2020, the prepayment premium will be reduced by 25%.

 

Subject to certain conditions, if the Company retains or reinvests proceeds of an asset sale pursuant to the asset sale prepayment provisions in the Highbridge Loan Agreement, the Lenders shall be entitled to convert First Lien Notes and Holders (defined below) shall be entitled to convert Second Lien Notes in aggregate combined principal amount equal to 45% of such net proceeds retained or reinvested (together with any applicable prepayment premium) to Common Stock at a price per share equal to 90% of the greater of (i) the daily volume weighted average of the price per share of the Common Stock, on the conversion date, or if the conversion date is not a trading date, the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date and (ii) $0.57 per share. This conversion option has a daily limit of $1,000,000 in aggregate converted principal (inclusive of principal amount of Second Lien Notes that are voluntarily converted by the Holders).

 

From and after a Strategic Transaction Announcement (as defined in the form of First Lien Note), the Company may elect to convert up to $9,375,000 in aggregate principal of the First Lien Notes to Common Stock at a price per share equal to 90% of the greater of (i) the daily volume weighted average of the price per share of the Common Stock, on the conversion date, or if the conversion date is not a trading date, the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date and (ii) $0.57 per share of Common Stock. This conversion option has a daily limit of $300,000 in aggregate converted principal. If the Company or the Lenders elect to convert any of the First Lien Notes, the amount converted will be equal to the principal and unpaid accrued interest plus the applicable prepayment premium.

 

The Highbridge Loan Agreement contains customary terms and covenants, including without limitation: financial covenants, such as operating within an approved budget and maintaining a minimum cash balance; and negative covenants, such as limitations on indebtedness, liens, mergers, asset transfers, certain investing activities and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. Most of these restrictions are subject to certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. The Highbridge Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default, after which the First Lien Notes may be due and payable immediately, including, without limitation, payment defaults, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, material adverse changes, bankruptcy and insolvency proceedings, cross-defaults to certain other agreements, judgments against us, and change of control, termination of any guaranty, governmental approvals, and lien priority.

 

 

 

 

Exchange Agreement with Highbridge

 

In addition, on April 21, 2020 the Company entered into a Note Purchase and Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with certain funds managed by Highbridge providing for the exchange (the “Exchange”) of $24.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 5.25% Senior Convertible Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) for (i) $15,675,000 aggregate principal amount of newly issued Second Lien Secured Notes due January 2022 (the “Second Lien Notes” and, together with the First Lien Notes, the “Senior Notes”), (ii) 11,026,086 shares of Common Stock, (iii) warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.66 per share, and (iv) $346,500 in accrued and unpaid interest on the 2025 Notes being exchanged.  The Exchange is expected to close on or about April 24, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions. The Warrants may be exercised in cash or on a cashless basis at any time through the three year anniversary of the issuance date. The Exchange is being made in reliance on Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

The Second Lien Notes are secured, senior obligations of Senseonics, junior only to the First Lien Notes. Interest in cash at the annual rate of 7.5% or, at the Company’s option, payment in kind at an annual rate of 8.25%, on the Second Lien Notes will be payable monthly in arrears. The maturity date for the Second Lien Notes will be January 24, 2022 (the “Second Lien Maturity Date”), unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms. The obligations under the Second Lien Notes are secured by substantially all assets of Senseonics.

 

The Company will have the right to prepay the Second Lien Notes at any time, subject to a prepayment premium, which in certain circumstances the Company may elect to pay in common stock, equal to the aggregate amount of interest payments through maturity. However, if the date of payment in cash of such prepayment premium is on or before August 22, 2020, the prepayment premium will be reduced by 25%.

 

The holders of the Second Lien Notes (the “Holders”) will have the right to convert up to $7,000,000 aggregate principal of the Second Lien Notes (together with any applicable prepayment premium) to Common Stock at a price per share equal to 90% of the greater of (i) the daily volume weighted average of the price per share of the Common Stock, on the conversion date, or if the conversion date is not a trading date, the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date and (ii) $0.57 per share. This conversion option has a daily limit of $1,000,000 in aggregate converted principal (inclusive of principal amount of First Lien Notes that are voluntarily converted by the Lenders). Subject to certain conditions, if the Company retains or reinvests proceeds of an asset sale pursuant to the Asset Sale Prepayment Provisions in the Exchange Agreement, the Holders shall be entitled to convert additional Second Lien Notes and the Lenders shall be entitled to convert First Lien Notes in aggregate combined principal amount equal to 45% of such net proceeds retained or reinvested (together with any applicable prepayment premium).

 

From and after a Strategic Transaction Announcement, the Company may elect to convert up to $8,675,000 in aggregate principal of the Second Lien Notes to Common Stock at a price per share equal to 90% of the greater of (i) the daily volume weighted average of the price per share of the Common Stock, on the conversion date, or if the conversion date is not a trading date, the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date and (ii) $0.57 per share. This conversion option has a daily limit of $300,000 in aggregate converted principal. If the Company or the Holders elect to convert any of the Second Lien Notes, the amount converted will be equal to the principal and unpaid accrued interest plus the applicable premium.

 

The Exchange Agreement contains customary terms and covenants, including without limitation: financial covenants, such as maintaining a minimum cash balance; and negative covenants, such as limitations on indebtedness, liens, mergers, asset transfers, certain investing activities and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. Most of these restrictions are subject to certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. The Exchange Agreement also contains customary events of default, after which the Second Lien Notes may be due and payable immediately, without limitation, payment defaults, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, material adverse changes, bankruptcy and insolvency proceedings, cross-defaults to certain other agreements, judgments against us, and change of control, termination of any guaranty, governmental approvals, and lien priority.

 

 

 

 

Stockholder Approval

 

The Company may not issue shares of its Common Stock, net of the 18,181,818 shares underlying the 2025 Notes exchanged in the Exchange, in excess of 19.99% of the Common Stock outstanding on April 21, 2020; this restriction is subject to removal upon approval by stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholder Approval”). The Company intends to seek the Stockholder Approval at the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

 

Registration Rights Agreements

 

In connection with the entry into the Highbridge Loan Agreement and the Exchange Agreement, the Company has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of two registration rights agreements, to register the resale of the Commitment Fee Shares, any shares issuable upon conversion or exchange of the Senior Notes and shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to the registration rights agreements, the Company has agreed to file no later than April 29, 2020, and to have declared effective no later than 45 days thereafter, such registration statement on Form S-3. The registration rights agreements contains customary other terms, conditions and other provisions.

 

The Company will pay additional interest on the Senior Notes and the shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the Senior Notes if the resale documents are not timely filed or made effective or if the resale documents are unavailable for periods in excess of those permitted. Such additional interest will accrue until the date prior to the day the default is cured at a rate per year equal to an annual rate of 0.50% of the aggregate principal amount of such Senior Notes outstanding (or the principal amount of such Senior Notes converted into Common Stock) for the first 90 days following the default and (ii) thereafter will increase by an annual rate of 0.50% during each subsequent 90-day period of the aggregate principal amount of such Senior Notes outstanding up to an aggregate increase of 2.0%.
