Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Bridge Financing

 

On August 5, 2016, Superior Drilling Products, Inc. (the “ Company ”) entered into a private transaction with a private investor pursuant to which they issued a promissory note in the aggregate principal amounts of $1,000,000 (the “ Bridge Note ”) and a warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”), at an exercise price of $1.38 per share, subject to certain adjustments to the number of shares and the exercise price described in the warrant. The exercise price shall automatically be adjusted to equal the per share offering price of the Common Stock in the first qualified financing completed following the date of the warrant. A qualified financing is a sale of Common Stock to investors on or before February 5, 2017, with total proceeds to the Company of not less than $2,000,000.

 

The Bridge Note matures on February 5, 2017, subject to the Company’s option to extend maturity for an additional three months, and accrues interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The Bridge Note may be prepaid by the Company at any time, provided that the Company is required to pay a minimum of $40,000 of interest on the Bridge Note at the time of prepayment. In the event that the Company fails to repay or prepay in full the indebtedness under the Bridge Note on or before the maturity date, the Company is required to issue shares of the Common Stock in an aggregate amount representing 200% of the principal amount of the Bridge Note outstanding at the maturity date, based on a per share price equal to the 30-day volume weighted average trading price of the Common Stock on the NYSE MKT calculated as of the maturity date, and to file a resale registration statement covering such shares. Such penalty payment would be in replacement and satisfaction of the amounts then due and owing by the Company under the Bridge Note. In the event that the Company completes a debt or equity financing prior to the maturity date, it is required to repay all amounts outstanding under the Bridge Note. Until the payment in full of the indebtedness under the Bridge Note, the Company has also agreed not to grant, convey, create or impose any lien or security interest on any of its real or personal property other than liens existing on the date of the Bridge Note.

 

The foregoing description of the Bridge Note and the warrant is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Bridge Note and the warrant, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Hard Rock Note

 

On August 10, 2016, certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into an amended and restated note with the seller in its acquisition of Hard Rock Solutions, LLC (as so amended and restated, the “ Hard Rock Note ”). The Hard Rock Note currently accrues interest at 5.75% per annum and matures and is fully payable on January 15, 2020. Under the current terms of Hard Rock Note, the Company is required to make the following payments: payments of $1,500,000 (plus accrued interest) on or before October 15, 2016, accrued interest on each of January 15, March 15, May 15 and July 15, 2017, $500,000 (plus accrued interest) on each of January 15, March 15, May 15 and July 15, 2018, and $1,000,000 (plus accrued interest) on each of January 15, March 15, May 15 and July 15, 2019, with the remaining balance of principal and accrued interest on the Hard Rock Note due on January 15, 2020.

 

In connection with the amendment and restatement, the Company made an interest payment of approximately $300,000 on the Hard Rock Note. In addition, the Company shall issue 700,000 restricted shares of common stock (having an agreed per share value of $1.43, or $1,000,000 in the aggregate) to the noteholder which will satisfy $1,000,000 of the $1,500,000 of principal which is due on or before October 15, 2016. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of these shares of common stock, provided that interest will continue to accrue on the Hard Rock Note based on the $1,000,000 value of the shares until the registration statement is declared effective.

 

 

 

 

The foregoing description of the Hard Rock Note is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Hard Rock Note, which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

C.      Net Issue Exercise.

 

                                                                             (i)             In lieu of exercising this Warrant in the manner provided above in Section 1(A), Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrendering this Warrant, with the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit A completed in accordance with the instructions thereto and duly executed by such Holder or by such Holder’s duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate, in which event the Company shall issue to Holder a number of shares of Warrant Stock computed using the following formula:

 

X = Y (A - B)

             A

 

Where                    X = The number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to Holder pursuant to this net exercise.

 

Y = The number of shares of Warrant Stock in respect of which the net issue election is made (at the date of such calculation).

 

A = The fair market value of one share of Warrant Stock (at the date of such calculation).

 

B = The Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

 

                                                                           (ii)             For purposes of this Section 1(C), “ fair market value ” of a share of Warrant Stock as of a particular date (the “ Determination Date ”) shall mean (A) the average of the closing price of a share of the Warrant Stock of the Company on the last twenty (20) trading days prior to the Determination Date reported on the NYSE MKT (the “ Exchange ”) as reported in The Wall Street Journal , or (B) if shares of Warrant Stock are not traded on the Exchange but trade in the over-the-counter market and such shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (the “ OTCBB ”), (I) the average of the last sales prices reported on the OTCBB or (II) if such shares are an issue for which last sale prices are not reported on the OTCBB, the average of the closing bid and ask prices, in each case on the last twenty (20) trading days (or if the relevant price or quotation did not exist on any of such days, the relevant price or quotation on the next preceding business day on which there was such a price or quotation) prior to the Determination Date as reported at www.otcbb.com; or (C) if the shares of Warrant Stock are neither traded on an exchange or in the over-the-counter market, then as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company.

 

D.      As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, Holder, or as such Holder may direct, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled. Issuance of certificates pursuant to this Section 1(D) shall be made without charge to Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expenses in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company.

 

E.       Each certificate for Warrant Stock or for any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall bear the following legend:

 

  - 2 -  

 

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ ACT ”). SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH SALE, PLEDGE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE ACT.”

 

F.       The Company covenants that the Warrant Stock, when issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

 

2.       Adjustments .

 

A.      The exercise price per share of Common Stock of this Warrant shall automatically be adjusted to equal the per share offering price of Common Stock in the first Qualified Financing completed following the date of this Warrant. “Qualified Financing” means a sale of Common Stock to investors on or before February 5, 2017, with total proceeds to the Company of not less than $2,000,000. For the avoidance of doubt, the Promissory Note issued to the Holder of even date herewith and any securities issued pursuant thereto shall not count toward a Qualified Financing.

 

B.      If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a stock dividend shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend, as the case may be, shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced. If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Purchase Price, the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. Any adjustment under this Section 2(B) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.

 

C.      In case of any reclassification, change or conversion of securities of the Company of the class issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant or in case of any reorganization of the Company on or after the date hereof, other than upon a Change of Control Transaction and other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock dividend provided for in Section 2(B) above, then and in each such case Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the consummation of such reclassification, change, conversion or reorganization shall be entitled to receive (and upon written request, the Company shall provide Holder duly executed documents evidencing the same), in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise hereof prior to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation if such Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior thereto, at an aggregate exercise price not more than that payable upon the exercise if this Warrant prior to such consummation, all subject to further adjustment as provided in Section 2(B) above; and in each such case, the terms of this Section 2 shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities properly receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.

 

  - 3 -  

 

 

D.      Whenever the Purchase Price or the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to Holder in the form of a certificate, signed by the chief executive officer and the executive officer responsible for the creation of such certificate, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such adjustment. Such certificate shall be delivered to Holder within thirty (30) days of such adjustment, in accordance with Section 9 hereof.

 

3.       Transfers . Each Holder of this Warrant acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Stock have not been registered under the Act, and agrees not to offer for sale, sell, pledge, distribute, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant and agrees not to offer for sale, sell, pledge, distribute, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Warrant Stock issued upon its exercise in the absence of (i) an effective registration statement under the Act as to this Warrant and the Warrant Stock and registration or qualification of under any applicable Blue Sky or state securities law then in effect, or (ii) an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration and qualification are not required; provided , however , that no opinion need be obtained with respect to a transfer to (A) a partner or member, active or retired, of Holder, (B) the estate of any such partner or member, (C) an “affiliate” of Holder as that term is defined in Rule 405 promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) under the Act, or (D) the spouse, children, grandchildren or spouse of such children or grandchildren of Holder or to trusts for the benefit of Holder or such persons, in each case if the transferee agrees to be subject to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee receiving shares that (A) have been registered under the Act or (B) are resaleable under Rule 144 promulgated under the Act shall not be required to agree in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 3.

 

4.       No Impairment . The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of Holder of this Warrant against impairment.

 

5.       Termination .

 

A.      This Warrant (and the right to purchase securities upon exercise hereof) shall terminate upon the earliest of: (i) August 8, 2021 (the “ Expiration Date ”), and (ii) the closing of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. For purposes of this Warrant, each of the following transactions shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company: (i) a sale, exclusive lease, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (ii) any reorganization, consolidation, merger, stock sale, reorganization or similar transaction in which the Company is a constituent corporation or is a party if, as a result of such transaction, the voting securities of the Company that are outstanding immediately prior to such transaction do not represent, or are not converted into, securities of the resulting or surviving corporation that together represent a majority of the voting power of the surviving or resulting corporation in such a transaction (a “ Change of Control Transaction ”).

 

  - 4 -  

 

 

B.      This Warrant shall be deemed to be exercised automatically in full pursuant to the provisions of Section 1(C) hereof, without any further action on behalf of Holder, immediately prior to the time this Warrant would otherwise terminate pursuant to Section 5(A) above.

 

6.       Notices of Certain Transactions .

 

A.                  In the event:

 

                                                                             (i)             that the Company takes a record of Holders of its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right;

 

                                                                           (ii)             that the Company makes any amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation;

                                                                         (iv)             of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

 

then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to Holder a notice specifying, as the case may be, (a) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, (b) a certified copy of the Company’s current articles of incorporation, or (c) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, Change of Control Transaction, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or redemption is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which Holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or redemption) shall be determined. Such notice shall be mailed at least twenty (20) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.

 

B.      The Company shall mail or cause to be mailed to the Holder, by certified mail, return receipt requested, notice of the Expiration Date of the Warrant, no later than twenty (20) days prior to the Expiration Date.

 

7.       Reservation of Stock . The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for the issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of Warrant Stock and other stock, securities and property, as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant and conversion of the Warrant Stock.

pg3

 

3. Maturity Date. The entire outstanding principal balance of this Promissory Note, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date (or, if such date is not a business day, then on the immediately preceding business day), or upon any earlier acceleration of the Maker's obligations hereunder, unless such obligations are earlier satisfied in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

4. Default. If Maker fails to pay, within fifteen (15) days, any principal of or interest on this Promissory Note when due (“Default”), the holder of this Promissory Note or any part thereof may thereafter provide Maker written notice of the Default, and if Maker continues to be in Default for thirty (30) days or more after receipt of written notice, Payee may declare the principal balance hereof and the interest accrued hereon to be immediately due and payable.

 

A default under the terms of the Security and Pledge Agreement securing this Promissory Note (hereinafter “Security Agreement”) also is a default under this Promissory Note. If Maker is in default under the terms of the Security Agreement, Payee shall provide Maker with written notice specifying such default and allow thirty (30) days from receipt of said notice to cure the default. Maker shall not be in default under the terms of the Security Agreement until such notice has been given and Maker has failed to cure the default within the thirty (30) day grace period. In the event of a default under the Security Agreement which is not cured within the time period specified herein, Payee, at Payee's option, may also accelerate the entire balance of this Promissory Note.

 

If Payee elects to accelerate the balance of this Promissory Note as permitted herein, the entire balance of principal, together with interest to the date of default and all other amounts due under this Note or the Security Agreement shall, from the date of default, bear interest at the rate of nine percent (9.00%) per annum (“Default Interest Rate”), and all such amounts shall be immediately due and payable in full. Interest shall continue to accrue on the full amount of principal, interest and such other amounts due as of the default date until the default has been cured. The Payee shall have the right to recover from Maker an additional amount equal to Payee's reasonable costs in enforcing this Promissory Note and the Security Agreement in the event of default, including reasonable attorney's fees and other costs related to the default, whether or not suit is commenced, and whether or not Payee elects to accelerate the balance. All such reasonable fees and costs must be paid before a default will be cured.

 

5. Prepayment. Maker may, at any time, prepay the outstanding balance of principal and interest due under this Promissory Note in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. In the event of prepayment, there shall become due and payable an amount equal to all accrued interest attributable to that portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Promissory Note being prepaid at that time. Partial prepayments shall not defer the due dates for, or the amounts of, succeeding payments. By its execution hereof, Maker agrees that it shall endeavor to make principal and/or accrued interest payments on this Promissory Note prior to the due dates set forth herein if in Maker's good faith determination it has the financial wherewithal to make such prepayments.

6. Payments and Computations. All payments on account of indebtedness evidenced by this Promissory Note shall be made on the day when due in lawful money of the United States. Payments are to be made at such place as Payee or the legal holders of this Promissory Note may, from time to time, in writing appoint, and in the absence of such appointment, then at the place provided in the Notice section of the Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Payee agrees to accept 700,000 unregistered shares of common stock in Superior Drilling Products, Inc., a Utah corporation (“Superior”) valued at One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in exchange for a reduction in the principal amount of the existing indebtedness due on October 15, 2016. Although the Payee will accept the referenced stock for payment toward the principal due on the October 15, 2016 Payment, interest will continue to accrue on the deemed principal amount until said shares become registered.

 

7. Applicable Law and Jurisdiction. Maker represents and agrees that this instrument and the rights and obligations of all parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Colorado without regard to the conflicts of law principles. Maker hereby consents to the jurisdiction in Colorado concerning any enforcement of this Promissory Note.

 

8. Severability. The parties hereto intend and believe that each provision in this Promissory Note comports with all applicable local, state and federal laws and judicial decisions. However, if any provision or provisions, or if any portion of any provision or provisions, of this Promissory Note is found by a court of law to be in violation of any applicable local, state or federal ordinance, statute, law, administrative or judicial decision, or public policy, and if the court should declare that portion, provision or provisions to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent of Maker and Payee that such portion, provision or provisions be given force to the fullest possible extent that they are legal, valid and enforceable, that the remainder of this Promissory Note shall be construed as if the illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable portion, provision or provisions were not contained herein, and that the rights, obligations and interest of Maker and Payee or the legal holders hereof under the remainder of this Promissory Note shall continue in full force and effect.

 

9. Maximum Interest. Payee and Maker intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof Payee and Maker hereby stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained herein shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law from time to time in effect. Neither Maker nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any indebtedness hereunder shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully contracted for, charged, or received under applicable law from time to time in effect, and the provisions of this section shall control over all other provisions hereof which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. Payee expressly disavows any intention to contract for, charge, collect or receive excessive or unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any indebtedness hereunder is accelerated or upon the occurrence of any other event. If the maturity of any indebtedness hereunder is accelerated for any reason, any such indebtedness is prepaid and as a result any amounts that constitute interest are in excess of the legal maximum, or Payee or any other holder of any or all of the indebtedness hereunder shall otherwise charge, receive, or collect, or any Person shall pay, moneys which would otherwise increase the interest on any or all of the indebtedness hereunder to an amount in excess of that permitted by applicable law then in effect, then all sums that constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related indebtedness or, at Payee's or holder's option, promptly returned to Maker or the other payor thereof, as applicable, upon such determination. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the maximum amount permitted under applicable law, Payee and Maker (and any other payors thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under applicable law, characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the instruments evidencing the indebtedness hereunder in accordance with the amounts outstanding from time to time thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect under applicable law in order to lawfully contract for, charge, collect, or receive the maximum amount of interest permitted under applicable law. As used in this section the term “applicable law” means the laws of the State of Colorado including the Laws of the United States of America, as such Laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Superior Drilling Products Restructures Hard Rock Note
and Secures Bridge Loan

 

VERNAL, UT, August 11, 2016 — Superior Drilling Products, Inc. (NYSE MKT: SDPI) (“SDP” or the “Company”), a designer and manufacturer of drilling tool technologies, today announced both the restructuring of the promissory note issued to the seller in the Company’s 2014 acquisition of Hard Rock Solutions (the "Note") and the closing of a $1.0 million bridge loan.

 

The amended Note (i) permits the July 2016 principal payment to be paid with a combination of common stock and cash, (ii) changes the payment schedule for the Note and (iii) extends the terms of the Note until January 2020. Of the $1.5 million principal amount that was due in July 2016, $1.0 million will be paid by issuing 700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Interest of $303,805 was paid on August 5, 2016. The remaining $0.5 million principal and accrued interest is required to be paid in cash on October 15, 2016.

 

Christopher D. Cashion, Chief Financial Officer of SDP, noted, “The restructuring of the Note reflects the confidence by the sellers of the opportunity that the Drill-N-Ream offers and we appreciate their faith in SDP. The bridge loan enabled us to execute the Note restructuring and also provides some short-term working capital.”

 

After the stock and cash payments in 2016, the remaining principal amount due on the Note will be $8.0 million. For 2017, interest only payments are to be paid in January, March, May and July. Starting in 2018 during the same months, equal principal amounts of $0.5 million plus accrued interest are to be paid, and in 2019 in the same months, equal principal amounts of $1.0 million plus accrued interest are to be paid. The final payment of $2.0 million in principal plus accrued interest is due January 2020.

 

Separately, in a private transaction on August 5, 2016, SDP issued an 8%, $1.0 million bridge note and a warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in a private transaction. The exercise price of the warrant is $1.38 per share and shall be adjusted to equal the per share offering price of the Company’s common stock in the first qualified financing, as defined in the warrant, completed following the date of the warrant. SDP intends to repay the bridge note using funds raised by such financing.

 

The bridge note matures on February 5, 2017, but includes an option to extend maturity for an additional three months and accrue interest at the same rate. The bridge note may be prepaid at any time with a minimum payment of $40,000 of interest on the bridge note at the time of prepayment. In the event of failure to pay the bridge note in full, on or before the maturity date, the Company is required to issue shares of common stock in an aggregate amount representing 200% of the principal amount of the bridge note outstanding at the maturity date, based on a stock price equal to the 30-day volume weighted average trading price of the common stock on the NYSE MKT calculated as of the maturity date.
