Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On May 2, 2013 we borrowed $5.0 million of unsecured subordinated debt from two of our stockholders, Very Hungry LLC and Scott Reiman 1991 Trust. The lenders and their affiliates currently hold 8,876,467 shares of our common stock (approximately 11.9 % of our outstanding shares) and warrants and options to purchase up to 6,935,295 shares of our outstanding shares. The $5 million of subordinated debt financing is represented by $5.5 million aggregate principal amount of subordinated notes. In consideration for the bridge loan we reduced the exercise price on all warrants to purchase our common stock held by the lenders to $0.25 per share (from exercise prices ranging from $4.25 per share to $3.00 per share) and extended the maturity of all these warrants to August 1, 2016. The lenders of the subordinated loan have agreed to convert their subordinated notes into the securities offered in the rights offering at referred to in Item 8.01 at the rights offering price subject to shareholder approval of such conversion at our annual meeting of stockholders, expected to occur in July 2013.
The notes bear no interest and mature on September 9, 2013 and bear no interest. They are subordinated to our senior debt owed to The Karlsson Group, Inc. The gross proceeds of the loan satisfy a required funding milestone required under the Karlsson Group debt. The notes will convert into equity securities of Prospect upon the closing of the rights offering referred to in Item 8.01. The loan documents are filed as exhibits 10.1 through 10.4 hereto.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On May 8, 2013 we announced that we intend to commence a rights offering to our shareholders. The press release containing this announcement is filed as exhibit 99.1 hereto.
