Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 11, 2014, Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiary Macrophage Therapeutics, Inc., as guarantor, executed a Term Loan Agreement (the “CRG Loan Agreement”) with Capital Royalty Partners II L.P. in its capacity as a lender and as control agent for other affiliated lenders party to the CRG Loan Agreement (collectively, the “Lenders”) in which the Lenders agreed to make a term loan to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000 (the “Term Loan”), with an additional $10 million in loans to be made available upon the satisfaction of certain conditions stated in the CRG Loan Agreement. Closing and funding of the Term Loan occurred on May 15, 2014 (the “Effective Date”). The principal balance of the Term Loan will bear interest from the Effective Date at a per annum rate of interest equal to 14.0%. The Company will make quarterly payments of interest only in arrears commencing on June 30, 2015. Commencing on the fourth anniversary of the first quarterly interest payment date, the Company has the option of paying (i) 10.00% of the 14.00% per annum interest in cash and (ii) 4.00% of the per annum interest as compounded interest, added to the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan. Principal is repayable in eight equal quarterly installments during the final two years of the term.

 

The Company may voluntarily prepay the Term Loan in full, upon fifteen business days’ prior written notice to Lenders, with a prepayment premium beginning at 5% and declining by 1% annually thereafter, with no premium being payable if prepayment occurs after the fifth year of the term. The Term Loan requires the payment on the borrowing date of a financing fee of 1.25% of the amount borrowed, and facility fee payable at the end of the term or when the loan is repaid in full equal to 2% of the principal amount.

 

The CRG Loan Agreement requires that the Company adhere to certain affirmative and negative covenants, including, without limitation, financial reporting requirements and a prohibition against the incurrence of indebtedness, or creation of additional liens, other than as specifically permitted by the terms of the CRG Loan Agreement. The Lenders may accelerate the payment terms of the CRG Loan Agreement upon the occurrence of certain events of default set forth therein, which include, without limitation, the failure of the Company to make timely payments of amounts due under the CRG Loan Agreement, the failure of the Company to adhere to the covenants set forth in the CRG Loan Agreement, and the insolvency of the Company. The covenants of the CRG Loan Agreement include a covenant that the Company shall have EBITDA of no less than $5 million in each calendar year during the term or revenues from sales of Lymphoseek® in each calendar year during the term of at least $11 million in 2015, with the target minimum revenue increasing in each year thereafter until reaching of $45 million in 2020, which will also be the target minimum revenue in each calendar year thereafter during the term. If the Company fails to meet the applicable EBITDA or minimum revenue target in any calendar year, the Loan Agreement provides the Company a cure right if it raises 2.5 times the EBITDA or revenue shortfall in equity or subordinated debt and deposits such funds in a separate blocked account. Finally, the events of default under the CRG Loan Agreement include a failure of Platinum-Montaur Life Sciences, LLC (“Platinum”) to perform its funding obligations under the Platinum Loan Agreement (as defined below) at any time as to which the Company had negative EBITDA for the most recent fiscal quarter, as a result either of Platinum’s repudiation of its obligations under the Platinum Loan Agreement, or the occurrence of an insolvency event with respect to Platinum.

 

Pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement with the Lenders, the Company granted the Lenders a security interest in the Company’s tangible or intangible personal property of every kind, including, without limitation, all accounts, chattel paper, equipment, inventory, contract rights or rights to payment of money, general intangibles, commercial tort claims, documents, instruments (including any promissory notes), cash, deposit accounts, fixtures, letters of credit rights, intellectual property, securities, and all other investment property, and any and all claims, rights and interests in any of the above (collectively, the “Collateral”). The Collateral does not include capital stock of any foreign subsidiary of the Company in excess of 65% of the voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote, if a pledge of more than 65% of the capital stock of such subsidiary creates an adverse tax consequence to the Company under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.

 

In connection with the Company entering into the CRG Loan Agreement, the Company and Platinum entered into a Third Amendment (the “Third Platinum Amendment”) to the Loan Agreement between the Company and Platinum, dated July 25, 2012, as amended June 25, 2013 and March 4, 2014 (the “Platinum Loan Agreement). Platinum and the Lenders also entered into a Subordination Agreement (the “Subordination Agreement”), which the Company consented to and acknowledged, providing for the subordination of the Company’s indebtedness to Platinum under the Platinum Loan Agreement to the Company’s indebtedness under the CRG Loan Agreement, among other customary terms and conditions. Contemporaneously with the execution of the Third Platinum Amendment, the Company delivered a Third Amended and Restated Promissory Note, dated the Effective Date (the “Third Amended Platinum Note”), which amends and restates the Second Amended Promissory Note, dated March 4, 2014, made by the Company in favor of Platinum in the original principal amount of up to $35,000,000. Among other things, the Third Platinum Amendment (i) extends the term of the Platinum Loan Agreement until a date six months following the maturity date or earlier repayment of the Term Loan, and (ii) changes the provisions of the Platinum Loan Agreement governing Platinum’s right to convert advances into common stock of the Company. The Platinum Loan Agreement formerly provided for the optional conversion of advances made on or after June 25, 2013 beginning two (2) years from the date of the advance at conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) 90% of the lowest volume weighted average price for the 10 trading days preceding the date of such conversion request, or (ii) the average volume weighted average trading price for the 10 trading days preceding the date of such conversion request. Under the Third Platinum Amendment, the conversion right now applies to all advances made under the Platinum Loan Agreement, but not until such time as the average daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock for the ten (10) preceding trading days exceeds $2.53 per share. As of the Effective Date, the net advances to the Company under the Platinum Loan Agreement were $7.7 million.

The Grantors acknowledge that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Secured Parties Representative than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Secured Parties Representative shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for public sale.

 

(c)           Notice . The Grantors agree that to the extent the Secured Parties Representative is required by applicable law to give reasonable prior notice of any sale or other disposition of any Collateral, ten business days’ notice shall be deemed to constitute reasonable prior notice.

All rights and remedies of the Lender are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by laws or any other agreement, and may be exercised separately or concurrently.

 

Waiver; Amendment . No delay or omission on the part of the Lender in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right under this Note. No waiver of any right contained in, consent to any departure from, or amendment to any provision contained in this Note shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the Lender, nor shall a waiver on one occasion be construed as a waiver of any such right on any future occasion.

Except as otherwise set forth in the Loan Agreement, the Borrower waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note, and assents to any extensions or postponements of the time of payment or any and all other indulgences under this Note, or to any and all additions or releases of any other parties or persons primarily or secondarily liable under this Note, which from time to time be granted by the Lender in connection herewith regardless of the number or period of any extensions.

Exhibit 99.1

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Navidea Reports First Quarter 2015 Financial Results; Reiterates 2015

Lymphoseek® Revenue Guidance

 

DUBLIN OHIO, May 12, 2015 - Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE MKT: NAVB), today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2015. Navidea reported total revenue for the first quarter of 2015 of  $2.1 million,  including Lymphoseek ®  (technetium Tc 99m tilmanocept) injection sales revenue of  $1.84 million. The net loss attributable to common stockholders was $7.3 million .

 

“Performance year-to-date reflects our aggressive transformation into an organization singularly focused on unlocking the value of our Manocept™ technology as a state-of-the-art cancer imaging agent and as a novel therapeutic platform,” said Rick Gonzalez, Navidea Chief Executive Officer. “We executed on our stated objectives to grow revenues sequentially, continued to take steps to reduce operating cash burn, strengthened our balance sheet, and are positioned to begin realizing the impact of a fully deployed surgical oncology field force in the second half of the year. Based on this progress, we reaffirm our $10 to $12 million Lymphoseek revenue guidance for 2015 and our expectation of achieving cash-flow breakeven from operations during the first quarter of 2016.”

 

Specific milestones achieved in the first quarter and year-to-date include the following:

 

- Achieved sequential quarter-on-quarter Lymphoseek revenue growth of 26% and continued improvement in key performance indicator growth targets;
- Hired Lymphoseek field force of 12 representatives which will be fully deployed in the second quarter;
- Entered a European commercial partnership for Lymphoseek with Norgine BV and received $2 million up-front payment;
- Reported additional validating data at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) meeting demonstrating the potential for our CD206 targeting platform, Manocept, to target and treat Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS), which is an ideal model for other tumor types and infectious diseases;
- Signed a new credit facility that will allow us to restructure our debt and provide us with over $18 million in additional net capital to support the Company’s growth and plans to reach cash flow breakeven;
- Completed an initial external investment into Macrophage Therapeutics, Inc. enabling further development of the promising, early-stage Manocept therapeutic platform ; and,
- Completed the divestiture of the first of two non-core neuroimaging assets.

 

FINANCIALS

Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 were $2.1 million compared to $752,000 in the first quarter last year. First quarter product revenues recognized from the sale of Lymphoseek were $1.84 million, compared to $1.46 million in the fourth quarter of last year and $627,000 in the first quarter of last year. This represents a sequential quarter-on-quarter growth of 26% and year-over-year growth of approximately 200%. During the first quarter of 2015, the Company also received a $2.0 million up-front payment related to the execution of a sublicense for Lymphoseek in the EU with Norgine BV; however, this amount is being amortized over a two-year period in accordance with applicable revenue recognition rules.

 

Gross margins on Lymphoseek product sales remain strong at 76% for the first quarter of 2015 compared to 69% for the first quarter of 2014.

Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2015 were $4.0 million, compared to $5.2 million in the first quarter of last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2015 were $5.5 million, compared to $3.9 in the first quarter of last year. Total operating expenses were $9.5 million, compared to $9.1 million in the first quarter of last year. Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2015 included approximately $1.4 million in estimated one-time severance and stock compensation-related costs associated with the March 2015 reduction in force and approximately $1.5 million in out-of-pocket costs related to the Company’s neuroimaging programs.

 

Navidea’s net loss attributable to common stockholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $7.3 million, or $0.05 per share, compared to $11.7 million, or $0.08 per share, for the same period in 2014.

 

Navidea ended the quarter with $4.9 million in cash. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company entered into a loan agreement with CRG which, after paying off certain outstanding debt, will increase our cash position by over $18 million. The CRG loan agreement provides for an initial funding of $50 million with up to $10 million of additional funding available to Navidea, at its option, through December 2016, subject to the satisfaction of certain revenue milestones and other borrowing conditions.

 

In connection with the CRG financing, the Company also announced certain amendments to the Company’s existing line of credit currently in place with Platinum-Montaur Life Sciences, LLC (Platinum) are being made that allow this facility to remain in place in a subordinated position to the CRG loan. The amendments will allow Platinum to convert the Company’s $7.7 million debt during a time period in which the Company’s average stock price has exceeded $2.53 per share for 10 consecutive trading days.

 

The Company reiterates its 2015 Lymphoseek product revenue estimate of $10 million to $12 million.  Additionally, margins on Lymphoseek product sales are expected to approach and possibly exceed 80% in the coming quarters.  The Company also expects, following completion of the partnering activities for NAV4694, that cash operating expenses on a quarterly basis will continue to decrease to the point necessary for the Company to achieve its goals of cash flow breakeven from operations.  This guidance excludes therapeutic-related research and development costs for the Manocept platform which are expected to be funded separately by Macrophage Therapeutics, Inc.

 

“Our first quarter results are on track with our operating budget and are reflective of the Company’s goal to accomplish our objectives more efficiently,” said Brent Larson, Chief Financial Officer. “Consistent with this effort, we closed our Boston office, reduced headcount and have moved forward with our plans to discontinue development of our non-core neuroimaging products. These events, coupled with the restructuring of our debt, provide us with greater financial flexibility than we have enjoyed for some time. We believe this will not only help us through the point of achieving our stated goal of reaching cash flow break-even from operations early next year, but ultimately sets the stage for achievement of the longer term growth prospects for the Manocept platform.”

 

COMMERCIALIZATION

2015 commercialization efforts will focus initially on breast cancer, melanoma, and oral cavity head and neck cancers, where sentinel lymph node biopsies are already standard of care. Lymphoseek has a highly differentiated label, and the product provides a compelling clinical value proposition.

“Our commercial business achieved its stated objectives this quarter, which position us to realize the full effect of our new field force and commercial strategy,” said Thomas Klima, Chief Commercial Officer. “We have recruited a seasoned and highly-motivated sales team who will cover territories that capture more than 80% of Lymphoseek-applicable cancer diagnoses in the U.S. They will execute a new brand strategy reflective of Lymphoseek’s expanded label directed to the oncology treatment team with a focus on surgeons and other decision makers within the hospital. Based on the anticipated impact of the deployment of this sales force and our positive first quarter revenues and key performance indicators, we remain confident in our 2015 sales projections.”

 

MANOCEPT PIPELINE

The core Manocept CD206 targeting platform, upon which Lymphoseek is based, is central to our future business. As part of this effort, several critical new datasets have been, or are expected to be, reported at recent or upcoming medical conferences. Most recently, the company reported the following data at the AACR meeting:

 

- The Manocept molecule selectively binds to, and is continuously internalized by, tumor-associated macrophages and KS tumor cells in a preclinical model; and

 

- A single, subcutaneous injection of Lymphoseek, a product based on the Manocept platform, detects and localizes in both KS tumors and lymph nodes involved in draining the KS tumor fields.

 

“Our collective body of data reinforces our belief that the modulation or destruction of macrophage and KS expression profiles represents a potential for a paradigm-shifting immunotherapeutic strategy,” said Frederick O. Cope, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Navidea. “We believe these results indicate KS could serve as a model system for future immunotherapeutic development. We look forward to reporting additional data supporting the development of these efforts at upcoming medical conferences.”

About Lymphoseek

Lymphoseek ® (technetium Tc 99m tilmanocept) injection is the first and only FDA-approved receptor-targeted lymphatic mapping agent. It is a novel, receptor-targeted, small-molecule radiopharmaceutical used in the evaluation of lymphatic basins that may have cancer involvement in patients. Lymphoseek is designed for the precise identification of lymph nodes that drain from a primary tumor, which have the highest probability of harboring cancer. Lymphoseek is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in solid tumor cancers where lymphatic mapping is a component of surgical management and for guiding sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with clinically node negative breast cancer, melanoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity. Lymphoseek has also received European approval in imaging and intraoperative detection of sentinel lymph nodes in patients with melanoma, breast cancer or localized squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.

 

Accurate diagnostic evaluation of cancer is critical, as it guides therapy decisions and determines patient prognosis and risk of recurrence. Overall in the U.S., solid tumor cancers may represent up to 1.2 million cases per year. The sentinel node label in the U.S. and Europe may address approximately 235,000 new cases of breast cancer, 76,000 new cases of melanoma and 45,000 new cases of head and neck/oral cancer in the U.S., and approximately 367,000 new cases of breast cancer, 83,000 new cases of melanoma and 55,000 new cases of head and neck/oral cancer diagnosed in Europe annually.

 

Lymphoseek Indication and Important Safety Information

Lymphoseek is a radioactive diagnostic agent indicated with or without scintigraphic imaging for:

Lymphatic mapping using a handheld gamma counter to locate lymph nodes draining a primary tumor site in patients with solid tumors for which this procedure is a component of intraoperative management.

 

Guiding sentinel lymph node biopsy using a handheld gamma counter in patients with clinically node negative squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, breast cancer or melanoma.

 

Important Safety Information

In clinical trials with Lymphoseek, no serious hypersensitivity reactions were reported, however Lymphoseek may pose a risk of such reactions due to its chemical similarity to dextran. Serious hypersensitivity reactions have been associated with dextran and modified forms of dextran (such as iron dextran drugs).

 

Prior to the administration of Lymphoseek, patients should be asked about previous hypersensitivity reactions to drugs, in particular dextran and modified forms of dextran. Resuscitation equipment and trained personnel should be available at the time of Lymphoseek administration, and patients observed for signs or symptoms of hypersensitivity following injection.

 

Any radiation-emitting product may increase the risk for cancer. Adhere to dose recommendations and ensure safe handling to minimize the risk for excessive radiation exposure to patients or health care workers.

In clinical trials, no patients experienced serious adverse reactions and the most common adverse reactions were injection site irritation and/or pain (<1%).

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Navidea Secures $60 Million Loan with CRG; Funding to Support Lymphoseek ® Commercialization and Advancement of Development Pipeline

 

DUBLIN, OHIO — May 11, 2015 — Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE MKT: NAVB), today announced that it has entered into a term loan with CRG (formerly Capital Royalty L.P.), which provides for an initial funding of $50 million at closing. The majority of the funds provided by CRG will be used by Navidea to retire its debt from Oxford Finance LLC in its entirety. After repayment of the Oxford debt, this transaction will provide a net amount of $18 million in capital to Navidea. Proceeds will be used to support the growth of the Company’s Manocept™ technology, initially as a state-of-the-art FDA-approved cancer imaging agent, Lymphoseek ® (technetium Tc 99m tilmanocept) injection, and for general operating purposes.

 

Lymphoseek received FDA approvals in 2014 that made it the first and only imaging agent indicated for sentinel lymph node detection in breast cancer, melanoma and oral cavity head and neck cancers. This provides surgeons with a tool to determine the extent a cancer has spread in the body, which may inform accurate staging and patient management. This is accomplished through Lymphoseek’s distinct ability to target the cell surface protein CD206, a marker of disease-associated macrophages.

 

“As a premier lender that has invested in companies across all healthcare sectors, CRG is the ideal strategic partner for providing us with growth capital under attractive terms. Our relationship with CRG will allow us to execute on our Lymphoseek commercial plan and advance our Manocept diagnostic and therapeutic platform development programs," commented Rick Gonzalez, Navidea’s President and Chief Executive Officer. "Importantly, this provides us with substantially greater financial flexibility to achieve our goal for cash flow breakeven in the first quarter of 2016 and with the options to access additional capital or to accelerate principal payment. In addition, CRG offers Navidea its breadth of healthcare experience, deep knowledge of our business, and access to its impressive network and resources."

 

“Navidea represents a compelling investment opportunity for CRG with a first-in-class diagnostic imaging agent, Lymphoseek, and its Manocept platform, which has the potential to treat cancer and other conditions in a new way by targeting disease-associated macrophages,” said Charles Tate, Chairman of CRG.  “We believe that Navidea is poised to become a major player in the oncology market and CRG is pleased to provide the Company with capital as it grows Lymphoseek revenues and advances more innovative products to market.”

 

Select terms of the transaction include the following:

- Navidea will receive an initial $50 million loan with a term of six years, an interest only period for the first four years, and a 14% annual interest rate.
- Up to $10 million of additional funding will be available to Navidea, at its option, through December 2016, subject to the satisfaction of certain revenue milestones and other borrowing conditions.
- At the Company's option, during the first four years, a portion of the interest payments may be compounded and paid together with the principal in the fifth and sixth years.

 

In connection with the CRG financing, the Company also announced certain amendments to the Company’s existing line of credit currently in place with Platinum-Montaur Life Sciences LLC (Platinum) are being made that allow this facility to remain in place in a subordinated position to the CRG loan. The amendments will allow Platinum to convert the Company’s $7.7 million debt during a time period in which the Company’s average stock price has exceeded $2.53 per share for 10 consecutive trading days.

About Lymphoseek

Lymphoseek ® (technetium Tc 99m tilmanocept) injection is the first and only FDA-approved receptor-targeted lymphatic mapping agent. It is a novel, receptor-targeted, small-molecule radiopharmaceutical used in the evaluation of lymphatic basins that may have cancer involvement in patients. Lymphoseek is designed for the precise identification of lymph nodes that drain from a primary tumor, which have the highest probability of harboring cancer. Lymphoseek is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in solid tumor cancers where lymphatic mapping is a component of surgical management and for guiding sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with clinically node negative breast cancer, melanoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity. Lymphoseek has also received European approval in imaging and intraoperative detection of sentinel lymph nodes in patients with melanoma, breast cancer or localized squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.

 

Accurate diagnostic evaluation of cancer is critical, as it guides therapy decisions and determines patient prognosis and risk of recurrence. Overall in the U.S., solid tumor cancers may represent up to 1.2 million cases per year. The sentinel node label in the U.S. and Europe may address approximately 235,000 new cases of breast cancer, 76,000 new cases of melanoma and 45,000 new cases of head and neck/oral cancer in the U.S., and approximately 367,000 new cases of breast cancer, 83,000 new cases of melanoma and 55,000 new cases of head and neck/oral cancer diagnosed in Europe annually.
