DEBT | DEBT Included in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are $36,000 and $87,000, respectively, of amortization of the debt issuance costs and $81,000 and $198,000, respectively, of amortization of the debt discounts including accretion of the exit fee on the term loan. Included in interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are $25,000 and $62,000, respectively, of amortization of the debt issuance costs and $3,000 and $7,000, respectively, of amortization of the debt discount on the revolving facility. The Company’s term loan, net consists of the following at September 30, 2023: (In thousands) Term loan $ 10,000 Unamortized debt issuance costs (414) Unamortized debt discount, including accretion of exit fee (577) Term loan, net $ 9,009 The term loan, net was paid in full on November 8, 2023 in connection with the execution of the Perceptive Credit Agreement. The Company is still determining the appropriate accounting treatment for the MidCap Credit Agreement and Perceptive Credit Agreement. While the Perceptive Credit Agreement contains a subjective acceleration clause, management has determined that there is remote probability that Perceptive would accelerate of the obligations under the subjective acceleration clause. Accordingly, term loan, net has been presented as a long term liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023. The Company expects to record a loss on extinguishment of the MidCap Credit Agreement of approximately $2.5 million in connection with the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs, debt discounts and unamortized debt premiums. MIDCAP CREDIT AGREEMENT On February 17, 2023, the Company entered into a Credit, Security and Guaranty Agreement (the “MidCap Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company (as borrower) and Apyx China Holding Corp., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (as guarantor), and MidCap Funding IV Trust (as agent), and MidCap Financial Trust (as term loan servicer), and the lenders party thereto from time to time (collectively “MidCap”). The MidCap Credit Agreement provided for an up to $35 million facility, consisting of senior secured term loans and a secured revolving facility. The MidCap Credit Agreement provided for senior secured term loans of up to $25 million, comprised of (i) an initial tranche of $10 million, (ii) a second tranche of $5 million, and (iii) a third tranche of $10 million. The secured revolving facility provided for loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10 million, subject to a borrowing base equal to percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory determined in accordance with the MidCap Credit Agreement. The MidCap Credit Agreement was to mature on February 1, 2028. The outstanding borrowings under the MidCap Credit Agreement were repaid in full using proceeds from the execution of the Perceptive Credit Agreement. Term Loans The initial tranche of $10 million was fully funded on February 17, 2023 less transaction costs. Subject to certain terms and conditions of the MidCap Credit Agreement, the second tranche would be available between June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023 and the third tranche would be available between January 1, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively. The Company’s ability to access these additional tranches was conditioned upon, among other things, the achievement of certain minimum revenue targets. Each term loan bore interest at a floating rate reset monthly based on an adjusted one month SOFR plus 0.1%, subject to a floor of 2.5%, plus 7.35% calculated on a 360 day basis (12.8% at September 30, 2023). Interest was payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month. The first twenty-four (24) months of the term loans constituted an interest-only period (with a possible twelve (12) month extension). Subsequent to the interest-only period, the outstanding principal amount of the term loans was to be repayable in thirty-six (36) equal monthly payments (or twenty-four (24) with the extension). All remaining outstanding principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, was to be due at maturity on February 1, 2028. The term loans could be voluntarily prepaid in full, or in part, at any time, subject to terms and conditions set forth in the MidCap Credit Agreement. Additionally, the term loans were subject to mandatory prepayment fees, pursuant to the terms of the MidCap Credit Agreement. Prepayments of the term loans are subject to fees of 3%, 2%, and 1% of the prepayment amounts made during the first year, second year, and thereafter, respectively. At the time of the final payment of the term loans, the Company was also obligated to pay an exit fee of 4% of the total amount funded thereunder. The exit fee was being accreted over the life of the MidCap Credit Agreement utilizing the effective interest method. In connection with the satisfaction of the MidCap Credit Agreement, the Company paid MidCap a prepayment fee of 3% and the full 4% exit fee with proceeds from the Perceptive Credit Agreement discussed below. As the MidCap Credit Agreement contained a subjective acceleration clause and the Company has experienced recurring losses, outstanding borrowings have been presented as a current liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023. Revolving Facility The Company could borrow, repay and reborrow under the revolving facility until February 1, 2028, at which time the facility would terminate and all outstanding amounts thereunder, including all accrued and unpaid interest, must have been repaid. Borrowings were limited to the lesser of the Company’s borrowing base and the revolving commitment of $10,000,000. In connection with the revolving facility, the Company was required to maintain a lockbox account for the benefit of MidCap. Funds deposited into the lockbox account were swept daily to MidCap and applied to outstanding borrowings under the revolving agreement 5 days after the receipt of the funds by MidCap. Any balances in excess of the revolving borrowings were promptly returned to the Company. Loans made under the revolving facility bore interest at a floating rate based on an adjusted one month SOFR plus 0.1%, subject to a floor of 2.5%, plus 4.00% calculated on a 360 day basis (9.4% at September 30, 2023). The Company was obligated to pay a fee equal to 0.5% per annum on the outstanding balance of the revolving loans and the average unused portion of the available revolving commitments, respectively. Additionally, if the revolving facility was terminated or reduced before maturity, the Company was subject to a deferred origination fee. Terminations and reductions of the commitments were subject to fees of 3%, 2%, and 1% of the terminated or reduced commitments during the first year, second year, and thereafter, respectively. The Company was also required to maintain a minimum balance of 30% of the lesser of the borrowing base or $10 million under the revolving facility. If the average outstanding balance for a month was less than the minimum balance, the Company paid a minimum balance fee for the difference between the minimum balance and the average outstanding balance for the month at the highest rate for the revolving loans during the month. For such loans, interest and fees were payable monthly on the first day of each month. In connection with the satisfaction of the MidCap Credit Agreement, the Company paid MidCap a deferred origination fee of 3% of the revolving commitment with proceeds from the Perceptive Credit Agreement discussed below. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had drawn no amounts on the revolving facility. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $7,800,000 available to be drawn on the revolving facility. As the MidCap Credit Agreement contained a subjective acceleration clause and the Company was required to maintain a lockbox, any amounts drawn on the revolving facility would be presented as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheet. Collateral The obligations of the Company under the MidCap Credit Agreement were secured by first priority liens on substantially all of its assets. Covenants The MidCap Credit Agreement contained customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants limiting the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, among other things, to incur debt, grant liens, make distributions, enter certain restrictive agreements, pay or modify subordinated debt, dispose of assets, make investments and acquisitions, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and undergo certain fundamental changes, in each case, subject to limitations and exceptions. The MidCap Credit Agreement also required the Company to satisfy certain financial covenants, including minimum trailing twelve (12) month net revenue targets relating to its Advanced Energy segment (tested quarterly), with year-end targets of $49 million, $60 million and $70 million for 2023, 2024, and 2025, respectively. Additionally, the Company had to maintain a balance of $10 million in cash and cash equivalents during the duration of the MidCap Credit Agreement’s term. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum trailing twelve month net revenue financial covenant. As a result of the repayment of amounts outstanding under the MidCap Credit Agreement with proceeds from the Perceptive Credit Agreement discussed below, there were no implications to the Company from this event of noncompliance. Events of Default The MidCap Credit Agreement also contained customary Events of Default that include, among other things, certain payment defaults, cross defaults to certain other contracts and indebtedness, covenant defaults, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, bankruptcy and insolvency defaults, judgment defaults, change of control defaults, defaults related to the failure to remain registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and listed for trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market, and any material adverse change. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the MidCap Credit Agreement, the respective administrative agent, if requested by the respective lenders, could, among other things, (i) suspend or terminate commitments, as well as obligations of the relevant administrative agent and lenders, (ii) declare all outstanding obligations under the agreement (including principal and accrued and unpaid interest) immediately due and payable, and (iii) exercise the other rights and remedies provided for under the agreement. The MidCap Credit Agreement provided that, under certain circumstances, a default interest rate would apply on all obligations under such agreement during the existence of an Event of Default, at a per annum rate equal to 2% in excess of the applicable interest rate. The Company bifurcated a derivative liability related to the potential acceleration triggered upon an event of default (contingent put option) and the supplemental interest upon an event of default features of the MidCap Credit Agreement. The bifurcated derivative is de minimis to the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Issuance of Warrants In connection with the Company’s obligations under the MidCap Credit Agreement, the Company issued to a statutory trust of MidCap Financial warrants to purchase up to 250,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001, with an exercise price of $3.40 per share. The warrants have a 10 year term and can be exercised by issuing payment to the Company for the number of warrants exercised or exercised net by surrendering warrants with an intrinsic value equal to the cumulative exercise price of the warrants being exercised. The Company determined that these warrants meet the criteria for equity classification and included the proceeds allocated to the warrants, on a relative fair value basis, as a debt discount and additional paid-in capital in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Debt Issuance Costs In connection with entering into the MidCap Credit Agreement, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $1.8 million, comprised primarily of commissions paid to the financial advisor. These costs were allocated to the issued and unissued term loans and the revolving facility. The costs allocated to the issued term loan were being amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the loan. The costs allocated to the unissued term loans have been deferred and were being amortized over the life of the term loans starting at the issuance date. The Company recognized the deferred costs at the point that the Company’s rights to borrow on the term loans expired. The costs allocated to the revolving facility were to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the MidCap Credit Agreement. The Company expects to recognize all unamortized costs in loss on extinguishment of the MidCap Credit Agreement. The costs allocated to the issued term loan have been presented as a reduction of the term loan in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. The costs allocated to the unissued term loans and the revolving facility have been presented in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. PERCEPTIVE CREDIT AGREEMENT On November 8, 2023, the Company entered into a Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Perceptive Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company (as borrower), Apyx China Holding Corp. and Apyx Bulgaria EOOD, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (as subsidiary guarantors), and Perceptive Credit Holdings IV, LP (as initial lender and administrative agent)(“Perceptive”), and the lenders from time to time party thereto. The Perceptive Credit Agreement provides for a facility of up to $45 million, consisting of senior secured term loans. The Perceptive Credit Agreement provides for (i) an initial loan of $37.5 million and (ii) a delayed draw loan of $7.5 million. The Credit Agreement matures on November 8, 2028. Loans The initial loan of $37.5 million was fully funded on November 8, 2023, with approximately $11.0 million of the proceeds used to payoff the obligations under the MidCap Credit Agreement, including approximately $1.0 million of related prepayment penalties and exit fees, and $2.5 million for transaction fees and other expenses incurred in connection with the Perceptive Credit Agreement, which includes a 2% fee of the total facility payable to Perceptive at closing. The delayed draw loan is available until December 31, 2024, conditioned upon, among other things, the achievement of a minimum revenue target. After repayment of the MidCap Credit Agreement and payment of transaction fees and other expenses in connection with the Perceptive Credit Agreement, the net proceeds of these loans will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The initial loan and delayed draw loan bear interest at a floating rate based on one-month SOFR, subject to a floor of 5.0%, plus 7.0%. The first forty-eight (48) months of the loans constitute an interest-only period, with interest payable monthly on the last day of each month. Subsequent to the interest-only period, the outstanding principal amount of the loans is repayable in monthly payments of 3% of the outstanding balance on the payment date. All remaining outstanding principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, is due at maturity. The loans may be voluntarily prepaid in full, or in part, at any time, subject to terms and conditions set forth in the Perceptive Credit Agreement. Additionally, the loans are subject to mandatory prepayment obligations, pursuant to the terms of the Perceptive Credit Agreement. Prepayments of the loans are subject to fees of 10%, 9%, 6%, 4% and 2% of the prepayment amounts made during the first year, second year, third year, fourth year, and thereafter, respectively. Collateral The obligations of the Company under the Perceptive Credit Agreement are secured by first priority liens on substantially all of its assets.

The Perceptive Credit Agreement also requires the Company to satisfy certain financial covenants, including minimum trailing twelve month net revenue targets relating to its Advanced Energy segment (tested quarterly), with year-end targets of $41.6 million, $57.0 million, $70.2 million, and $87.8 million for 2024, 2025, 2026, and 2027, respectively. Additionally, the Company must maintain a balance of $3 million in cash and cash equivalents during the duration of the Perceptive Credit Agreement’s term.
