Item 2.04. |
Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement. |
On December 31, 2012, the Company failed to make required payments of $1 million in principal and approximately $180,000 of accrued interest due under its Loan and Security Agreement dated November 9, 2010 (the “Loan Agreement”) with two accredited investors (the “Lenders”) and the 7% Convertible Promissory notes issued thereunder (the “Notes” and, together with the Loan Agreement, the “Loan Documents”). Accordingly, the Company is in breach of its obligations under the Loan Documents and subject to the Lenders’ remedies thereunder.
The Company’s obligations under the Loan Documents are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, including, without limitation, inventory and the equipment the Company uses to fill prescriptions (the “Collateral”). The Loan Documents also require the Company to pay to the Lenders all costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the enforcement and collection of the its obligations under the Loan Documents.
The Lenders have delivered a letter dated as of December 31, 2012, to the Company’s Board of Directors (i) indicating that all amounts owed by the Company to Lenders under the Loan Documents had matured and, as a result, had become immediately due, (ii) alleging that the Company is in violation of certain covenants in the Loan Agreement, including the covenants prohibiting the incurrence of certain additional indebtedness by the Company and prohibiting the existence of certain liens over the Company’s assets that serve as collateral for its obligations under the Loan Documents, and (iii) informing the Company of the Lenders’ intent to pursue all rights and remedies available to them and to take all actions necessary to enforce such rights therein.
In addition, on January 15, 2013 the Company will be required to pay the Lenders $2 million in principal and approximately $193,000 in accrued interest under its Loan and Security Agreement dated September 2, 2011, with the Lenders, and the 7% Promissory Notes issued thereunder (the “2011 Loan Documents”). The Company’s obligations under the 2011 Loan Documents are also secured by liens over the Collateral, and the 2011 Loan Documents also require the Company to pay to the Lenders all costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the enforcement and collection of the its obligations thereunder.
To date, the Company is not aware of the Lenders taking any action to exercise their remedies under the Loan Documents. If the Lenders do elect to exercise these remedies, the Company may no longer be able to operate. In particular, if the Lenders take action against the Company’s inventory or equipment, the Company will not be able to fill customer orders, and if the Company is unable to fill customers’ prescriptions, it will be required by law to transfer those prescriptions to other pharmacies. In addition, the Company’s suppliers and other vendors may be unwilling to provide it goods and services until it has satisfied its obligations under the Loan Documents and the 2011 Loan Documents.
The Company does not currently have sufficient resources to pay its obligations under the Loan Documents and the 2011 Loan Documents, and it does not believe that the value of the Collateral will be sufficient to satisfy these obligations. Accordingly, if the Company enters, or is compelled to enter, a restructuring, reorganization, or liquidation, inside or outside of bankruptcy, it is unlikely that significant, or any, resources will be available for distribution to its unsecured creditors, to its preferred stock holders or to the holders of its common stock.
The Company is considering a broad set of alternatives, including seeking additional financing and negotiating with the Lenders, to address its current liquidity constraints and to satisfy its obligations under the Loan Documents and the 2011 Loan Documents. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to pursue any course of action that will allow it to continue to operate its business as a going concern, or to continue to operate in a manner that preserves the interests of its current creditors and equity holders.
