Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Amendment to Loan Agreement

On May 11, 2020, the Issuer entered into a Consent and Amendment No. 9 (the “Amendment”) to its Term Loan Agreement, dated as of March 4, 2015, as amended by the Omnibus Amendment Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2015, Amendment 2, dated as of August 6, 2015, Amendment 3, dated as of December 31, 2015, Amendment 4, dated as of April 7, 2016, Amendment 5, dated as of October 12, 2017, Amendment 6, dated as of April 4, 2018, Amendment 7, dated as of November 12, 2018, and Amendment 8, dated as of October 4, 2019, by and among the Issuer, certain of its subsidiaries from time to time party thereto as guarantors and the Funds as lenders (the “Loan Agreement”). The Amendment provides for the Funds’ consent to the transactions contemplated in connection with that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Issuer, Accelmed Partners II LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Buyer”), and Accelmed Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Buyer (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”).

Pursuant to the Amendment and related Trigger Exchange Agreement described below, the Issuer prepaid on the Amendment effective date $694,417.68 in aggregate principal of the loans outstanding under the Loan Agreement by issuing to the Funds an aggregate 11,850,131 shares of Common Stock in exchange for and satisfaction of such partial principal prepayment.

The Amendment also provides for, among others, the following additional amendments to the Loan Agreement to become effective upon the consummation of the Merger, the contribution of $17 million to the Issuer from Buyer and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Amendment (the “Accelmed Closing Date”):

•

The Issuer would make a $5 million partial prepayment of the outstanding loans under the Loan Agreement.

•

During the first two years until approximately two years after the date of the Amendment, the outstanding loans under the amended Loan Agreement would not amortize but would continue to accrue interest (the “Interest Only Period”). Following the Interest Only Period, the loans would amortize in eight equal quarterly payments.

•

The existing interest rate on the loans would be reduced from thirteen percent (13%) per annum to eight percent (8%) per annum, which the Issuer may choose to pay in cash or in kind during the Interest Only Period.

•

The maturity date of the loans under the Loan Agreement would be extended to a four (4) year maturity.

•

The Issuer would be allowed to prepay the loans at any time without any prepayment penalties.

•

The existing minimum revenue covenant would be deleted, together with the related right to cure breaches of such minimum revenue covenant with limited equity contributions.

•

The minimum liquidity covenant would be reduced from $3 million to $1 million.

•

The lenders under the Loan Agreement would continue to be able to designate a board observer during any time that the lenders have not designated a director on the Issuer’s board of directors.

•

The definition of a “change of control” would be amended to take the Issuer’s new ownership into account, so that the lenders and/or Accelmed and their respective affiliates owning more than 50% of the Issuer would not constitute a change of control under the Loan Agreement.

•

A new event of default would be added to the Loan Agreement as follows: if the Issuer or any of its subsidiary guarantors breach in any material respect the Merger Agreement, the Trigger Exchange Agreement or any other material agreement contemplated by the Accelmed Transactions referred to in the Amendment, subject to a thirty day cure period so long as the Issuer is using commercially reasonable efforts to remedy such breach.

On May 12, 2020, the Funds and certain other stockholders of the Issuer executed and delivered to Issuer a written consent (the “Written Consent”) approving the Merger and the Merger Agreement.

The foregoing summary of the Amendment and the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the Amendment (including the form of amended Loan Agreement attached thereto) and the Merger Agreement, respectively, attached hereto as Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

Trigger Exchange Agreement

On May 11, 2020, the Issuer entered into a Trigger Exchange Agreement (the “Trigger Exchange Agreement”) with the Funds. Immediately following the signing of the Merger Agreement, pursuant to the Trigger Exchange Agreement, the Issuer prepaid $694,417.68 in aggregate principal of the loans outstanding under the Loan Agreement by issuing to the Funds an aggregate 11,850,131 shares of Common Stock in exchange for and satisfaction of such partial principal prepayment, at a price per share equal to $0.0586.
