March 2023 Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement On March 6, 2023, Odyssey entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “March 2023 Note Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor pursuant to which Odyssey issued and sold to the investor (a) a promissory note (the “March 2023 Note”) in the principal amount of up to $14.0 million and (b) a warrant (the “March 2023 Warrants” and, together with the March 2023 Note, the “Securities”) to purchase shares of our Common Stock. On January 30, 2024, the March 2023 Warrants were amended to add a cashless exercise provision. Due to that amendment, the Company determined that the March 2023 Warrants meet the definition of a derivative and are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock due to the settlement adjustment that provides that the share price input upon cashless exercise is always based on the highest of three prices. As such, the March 2023 Warrants are now recognized as a derivative liability, which was initially measured at fair value and any subsequent changes in fair value will be recognized in earnings in the period incurred. The amended March 2023 Warrants were measured using the Black-Scholes valuation method on January 30, 2024, and re-classified from equity to warrant liability. The difference between the warrant liability and the initial equity balance was recognized as an additional discount to additional paid-in capital (“APIC”). The change in fair value of the March 2023 Warrants for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was a decrease of $5.9 million and a decrease of $6.2 million, respectively, which has been recorded in the change in derivative liabilities fair value in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The fair value of the March 2023 Warrants at September 30, 2024 was $1.5 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of interest expense from the amortization of the debt discount and $12,157 and $16,447, respectively, interest from the fee amortization which has been recorded in interest expense on the condensed consolidated Statement of Operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred $1.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of interest expense from the amortization of the debt discount and $44,693 and $37,363, respectively, interest from the fee amortization which has been recorded in interest expense on the condensed consolidated Statement of Operations. The September 30, 2024 carrying value of the debt was $12.7 million, which includes interest Paid-In-Kind (“PIK”) of $1.7 million. The total face value of this obligation on September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, was $12.7 million and $14.9 million, respectively. On September 5, 2024, the Company entered into amendments of the March 2023 Note with the holders thereof pursuant to which the maturity date of the March 2023 Note was extended from September 6, 2024 to December 6, 2024. In connection with the amendments, the Company repaid an aggregate amount of $3.0 million of the principal outstanding on September 6, 2024. December 2023 Notes and Warrant Purchase Agreement On December 1, 2023, we entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “December 2023 Note Purchase Agreement”) with institutional investors pursuant to which we issued and sold to the investors (a) a series of promissory notes (the “December 2023 Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $6.0 million and (b) two tranches of warrants (the “December 2023 Warrants” and, together with the December 2023 Notes, the “December 2023 Securities”) to purchase shares of our Common Stock. The Company determined that the December 2023 Warrants meet the definition of a derivative and are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock due to the settlement adjustment that provides that the share price input upon cashless exercise is always based on the highest of three prices. As such, the December 2023 Warrants were recognized as derivative liabilities and were initially measured at fair value with subsequent gains or losses due to changes in fair value recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company noted that when debt is issued with liability-classified stock purchase warrants, the residual method should be used so that the warrants are recognized at fair value at issuance and the residual proceeds are allocated to the debt. We incurred $65,500 in related expenses, which are being amortized over the term of the December 2023 Note Purchase Agreement and charged to interest expense. The total proceeds of $6.0 million were allocated between debt and warrant liability by recognizing the warrants at their full fair value and allocating the residual proceeds to the December 2023 Notes. The initial fair value of the December 2023 Warrants was $2.4 million, resulting in a corresponding discount on the December 2023 Notes which is being amortized over the remaining term of the December 2023 Note Purchase Agreement using the effective interest method, which is charged to interest expense. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded $0.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of interest expense from the amortization of the debt discount and $10,996 and $32,750, respectively, of interest from the fee amortization. At September 30, 2024, the carrying value of the debt was $5.3 million and was net of unamortized debt fees of $29,045, net of unamortized debt discount of $1.1 million associated with the fair value of the warrants. The change in fair value of the December 2023 Warrants for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was a decrease of $2.7 million and a decrease of $1.7 million, respectively, which has been recorded in the change in derivative liabilities fair value in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The total face value of this obligation at September 30, 2024 was $6.4 million. The current interest rate of the December 2023 Notes was 11.0%. Emergency Injury Disaster Loan The Company obtained an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (the “EIDL Loan”) from the United States Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) with a principal amount of $150,000, which was used for working capital purposes. The Company made payments amounting to $2,193 and $6,579 for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. All payments reduced accrued interest first and were then applied against principal. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s principal balance on the EIDL Loan amounted to $150,000 and is recorded as Loans payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Vendor Note Payable We currently owe a vendor $0.5 million as an interest-bearing trade payable. This trade payable bears simple annual interest at a rate of 12.0%. As collateral, we granted the vendor a primary lien on certain of our equipment. The carrying value of this equipment is zero. This agreement matured in August 2018. Even though this agreement has matured, the creditor has not demanded payment. There are no covenant requirements to meet that would expose the Company to default situations. AFCO Insurance Note Payable On November 1, 2023, we entered into the Premium Finance Agreement (“AFCO Insurance Note Payable”) with AFCO Credit Corporation (“AFCO”). Pursuant to the Premium Finance Agreement, AFCO agreed to finance the D&O Insurance premiums evidenced by the promissory note, bearing interest at a rate of 4.95% per annum, maturing on October 31, 2024. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company paid $468,751 on AFCO Insurance Note Payable; therefore, as of September 30, 2024, the Company had paid off any remaining amounts owed under the AFCO Insurance Note Payable and the balance amounted to zero. Pignatelli On March 6, 2023, Odyssey issued a new unsecured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $0.5 million to Mr. Pignatelli bearing interest at the rate of 10.0% per annum convertible into Common Stock of Odyssey at a conversion price of $3.78 per share. On September 13, 2024, Mr. Pignatelli converted all outstanding principal and interest under the note, amounting to $0.6 million, to shares of our Common Stock. Accordingly, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued 152,461 shares of our Common Stock to Mr. Pignatelli and the balance of the note at September 30, 2024 amounted to zero. 37North On June 29, 2023, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (“Note Agreement”) with 37North SPV 11, LLC (“37N”) pursuant to which 37N agreed to loan us $1.0 million. The proceeds from this transaction were received in full on June 29, 2023. Pursuant to the Note Agreement, the indebtedness was non-interest bearing and matured on July 30, 2023. At any time from 31 days after the maturity date, 37N has the option to convert all or a portion of the outstanding amount of the indebtedness into conversion shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) 120% of the amount of the indebtedness, by (B) the lower of $3.66 or 70% of the 10-day volume-weighted average principal (“VWAP”) market trading price of Common Stock. The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with conversion of the indebtedness is not to exceed (i) 19.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock prior to the date of the Agreement, (ii) 19.9% of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities, or (iii) such number of shares of Common Stock that would violate the applicable listing rules of the Principal Market if the stockholders did not approve the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the indebtedness. Any time prior to maturity, the Company had the option to prepay the indebtedness at an amount of 108% of the unpaid principal. From the maturity date to 29 days after the maturity date (August 27, 2023), we were permitted to repay all (but not less than) of an amount equal to 112.5% of the unpaid amount of the indebtedness. At any time after the 30th day after the maturity date (August 28, 2023), we are permitted to repay all (but not less than) of an amount equal to 115% of the unpaid amount of the indebtedness after 10 days’ notice. If 37N delivers an exercise notice during this 10-day period, the note issued pursuant to the Note Agreement (the “37N Note”) would be converted to shares of Common Stock, instead of being repaid. As of September 30, 2024, we have not repaid this Note Agreement. If 37N delivers an exercise notice and the number of shares issuable is limited by the 19.9% limitation outlined above, then we are permitted to repay all the remaining unpaid amount of the Loan in an amount equal to 130% of the remaining unpaid amount. On December 27, 2023, 37N delivered an exercise notice to us pursuant to which it exercised its right to convert $360,003 of the outstanding indebtedness under the Note Agreement into shares of our Common Stock. In accordance with the Note Agreement, based on the applicable conversation rate of $2.3226 under the agreement, we issued 155,000 shares of our Common Stock to 37N on December 29, 2023. In June 2024, 37N delivered an exercise notice to us pursuant to which it exercised its right to convert $200,701 of the outstanding indebtedness under the Note Agreement into shares of our Common Stock. In accordance with the Note Agreement, based on the applicable conversation rate of $3.6491, we issued 55,000 shares of our Common Stock to 37N on June 24, 2024. In July 2024, 37N delivered an exercise notice to us pursuant to which it exercised its right to convert $101,621 of the outstanding indebtedness under the Note Agreement into shares of our Common Stock. In accordance with the Note Agreement, based on the applicable conversation rate of $3.2781, we issued 31,000 shares of our Common Stock to 37N on July 18, 2024. In September 2024, 37N delivered an exercise notice to us pursuant to which it exercised its right to convert $250,633 of the outstanding indebtedness under the Note Agreement into shares of our Common Stock. In accordance with the Note Agreement, based on the applicable conversation rate of $2.8161, we issued 89,000 shares of our Common Stock to 37N on September 12, 2024. We evaluated the indebtedness and, based on the criteria of ASC 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and 815 Derivatives and Hedging, the 37N convertible note is classified as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet with a share settled redemption feature that is recorded as an embedded derivative. As a result, the share settled redemption and conversion features were recorded at fair value at each reporting period outstanding with changes recognized through Interest expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. The Company analyzed the conversion feature of the note and determined that, because it includes a conditional obligation to issue a variable number of shares based on a fixed amount known at inception, the debt is properly classified as a liability in the balance sheet. The Company identified seven embedded features, all of which were of de minimis fair value other than the Share Settled Redemption Feature. As such, only that was bifurcated and accounted for separately from the debt host. Certain default put provisions were not considered to be clearly and closely related to the debt host, but management concluded that the value of these default put provisions was de minimis. At September 30, 2024, the debt instrument and embedded derivatives were recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, under Loans payable – short term and Litigation financing and other – long term. At December 31, 2023, the debt instrument and embedded derivatives were recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value of $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively, under Loans payable – short term and Litigation financing and other – long term. Accrued interest Total accrued interest associated with our financings was $1.1 million and $0.9 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
