B. Gix Media’s Loan Agreement and short-term loans:

 

On October 13, 2021, Gix Media entered into a financing agreement with Bank Leumi Le Israel Ltd (“Leumi”), an Israeli bank, for the provision of a line of credit in the total amount of up to $3,500 and a long-term loan totaling $6,000, which Gix Media used to finance the acquisition of Cortex (the “Financing Agreement”).

 

The Financing Agreement included the following main terms:

 

  1) A loan of $6,000 to be provided to Gix Media which will be repaid in 48 monthly payments at an annual interest rate of LIBOR + 4.12%.
     
  2) A renewable monthly line of credit, of up to $3,500 to be provided to Gix Media, which will be available for utilization for a period of two years and will be determined on a monthly basis, at 80% of Gix Media’s accounts receivable balance (“Line of Credit”). The amounts that will be withdrawn from the Line of Credit will bear annual interest of LIBOR + 3.2%.
     
  3) Gix Media undertook to meet financial covenants over the life of the loans as follows: the ratio of debt to EBITDA, based on the Gix Media’s consolidated financial statements in all 4 consecutive quarters, will not exceed 2.4 in the first two years and will not exceed 1.75 in the following two years. As of December 31, 2023, Gix Media didn’t meet the financial covenants in connection with the Financing Agreement, however, Gix Media has received a waiver by Leumi to be effected until April 16, 2024, according to which, Leumi agreed to delay its right for immediate repayment of the loans.

On October 10, 2023, Gix Media and Leumi entered into a second addendum to the Financing Agreement, according to which, Leumi extended an existing monthly renewable credit line of $3,500 (the “Gix Media Credit Line”) by one year which will expire on October 13, 2024. The amounts that are drawn from the Gix Media Credit Line bear an annual interest of SOFR + 4.05%. In addition, according to the Second Addendum the 2.4 ratio of debt to EBITDA was extended by nine months to June 30, 2024.

 

On June 13, 2024, Gix Media and Leumi entered into a third addendum to the Financing Agreement between the parties which was effective from May 15, 2024, pursuant to which, inter alia: (i) the addendum will be effective until August 31, 2024; (ii) the Company is obligated to transfer to Gix Media $600; (iii) a new covenant which replaced the previous financial covenant, measured by reference to positive EBITDA was implemented; (iv) all payments due to Leumi Long-term bank loan were deferred to August 31, 2024 and from September 1, 2024, payments will be repaid as schedule until the end of the Long-term bank loan; (v) a new loan of $350 was granted to Gix Media on June 13, 2024 which was repaid in full on August 30, 2024, alongside the existing credit facility to Gix Media.

The warrants will be exercisable for a three-year period from the issuance date.

 

In addition, the Company paid to the June 2024 Lead Lender a commission consisting of: (a) 50,000 common stock of the Company, (b) 50,000 warrants to purchase 50,000 common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per share (c) 625,000 warrants for the purchase of 625,000 common stock with an exercise price of $4.00 per share (“June 2024 Lead Lender Fee Warrants”).

The June 2024 Lead Lender Fee Warrants, which were exercisable immediately after the closing of the agreement, were allocated subject to certain ownership restrictions, adjustments, and anti-dilution protections. Furthermore, the Company has committed to submitting a request for the registration of the shares and warrants issued to the June 2024 Lenders within thirty (30) days from the date of the June 2024 Facility Agreement.

 

In July 2024, following the closing of the Private Placement (as defined in note 10.B), the exercise price of the June 2024 Lead Lender Fee Warrants was adjusted to $0.472, which is equal to the effective price per share of common stock in the Private Placement, and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the June 2024 Lead Lender Fee Warrants was also adjusted to a total of 5,296,610 shares, such that the adjusted exercise price and number of warrants issued is equal to an aggregate amount of $2.5 million.

 

The conversion related features of the June 2024 Facility Agreement were bifurcated from their host debt contract and recognized as liabilities measured at fair value at each cut-off date. The facility loan was initially recorded at its fair value and subsequently measured at cost. The shares and warrants issued as prepayment of interest and as commission to the June 2024 Lead Lender were initially recognized at fair value and classified in equity.

 

The June 2024 Lead Lender Fee Warrants were initially recognized in fair value at the amount of $1,833 and classified as a liability measured at fair value at each cut-off date. Following the closing of the Private Placement and the adjustments made to the number of shares in the June 2024 Lead Lender Fee Warrants as part of the June 2024 Facility Agreement, the June 2024 Lead Lender Fee Warrants were reclassified to equity.
