2020 Convertible Notes

On January 3, 2020 (“issuance date”), the Company issued convertible promissory notes (the “2020 Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $3.0 million. The 2020 Notes bore interest at a rate of 1.21% per annum, were unsecured and were due and payable, including accrued interest, on May 2, 2020 (“maturity date”). The Company was not permitted to prepay the outstanding principal and interest without the consent of the note holders. In the event of a default, all unpaid principal and accrued interest would become immediately due.

On the issuance date the Company determined that the conversion option associated with the 2020 Notes met the definition of a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) as the fair value of the underlying instrument at the time of issuance exceeded the contractual conversion price. The BCF was recognized at its aggregate intrinsic value of $1.1 million as a debt discount with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital in the Company’s balance sheet. The debt discount was amortized over the term of the 2020 Notes through the recognition of interest expense via the effective interest method.

On March 17, 2020 (the “settlement date”), the Company issued and sold 2,545,277 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock at $4.712 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $12.0 million (see Note 8, “Convertible Preferred Stock”). On the settlement date, the principal and accrued interest then outstanding under the 2020 Notes of $3.0 million were converted into 638,270 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock (“March 2020 conversion”).

On the settlement date, the unamortized debt discount on the 2020 Notes was $0.4 million and the intrinsic value of the BCF was $2.6 million representing an increase of $1.5 million from the issuance date of the 2020

Notes. The March 2020 conversion was accounted for as a debt extinguishment. However, as the note holders were previous investors of the Company, the increase in the intrinsic value of the BCF was deemed to be a capital contribution and therefore not income attributable to common stockholders, and accordingly, the Company recorded the $1.5 million gain on extinguishment of the debt within additional paid-in capital.
