Item 2.03 | | Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
As previously reported in our Form 8-K filed on April 23, 2008, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, MacroChem assumed all obligations under the convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 issued to Strategic Capital Resources, Inc. by Virium on May 30, 2007 (the “First Convertible Note”). The First Convertible Note was due to mature on April 25, 2008. The First Convertible Note had a 12% annual interest rate until November 30, 2007, which increased to 15% thereafter. MacroChem paid to Strategic Capital Resources, Inc. $44,725.96 in cash which represents all accrued and unpaid interest on such note through the date of consummation of the Merger plus $10,000. MacroChem made this payment in consideration of Strategic Capital Resources, Inc.’s prior agreement with Virium to extend the maturity date on its note from March 26, 2008 to April 25, 2008. Upon closing of MacroChem’s next round of equity financing, the principal amount of the First Convertible Note and all accrued interest may be converted into MacroChem common stock at the discretion of each First Convertible Note holder such that each holder will be entitled to acquire shares of MacroChem common stock at $0.8950 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments.
On June 6, 2008, the Company repaid a principal amount of $400,000 to the holder of the First Convertible Note together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Further, on June 23, 2008, the Company repaid the unpaid principal balance of $100,000 together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the remaining holder of the First Convertible Note. The First Convertible Note was repaid, in part, with funds from new holders of convertible promissory notes whose notes mature on December 6, 2008, subject to certain conditions.
MacroChem also assumed on the Effective Date all obligations under convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 issued by Virium on December 12, 2007 (the “Second Convertible Notes”). The Second Convertible Notes mature on the earlier of (a) the closing of any equity financing by MacroChem or (b) June 12, 2008. The Second Convertible Notes have a 12% annual interest rate with all accrued interest due at maturity. Upon closing of MacroChem’s next round of equity financing, the principal amount of the Second Convertible Notes and all accrued interest thereon will be automatically converted into MacroChem common stock such that each Second Convertible Note holder will be entitled to acquire shares of MacroChem Common Stock at $0.8950 per share.
In June 2008, a principal amount of $200,000 of the Second Convertible Notes were rolled forward to a maturity of December 31, 2008, subject to certain conditions and the Company repaid holders of the Second Convertible Notes a principal amount of $75,000. The Company anticipates rolling forward the remaining principal balance of $225,000 of the Second Convertible Notes in the near future on terms similar to those previously agreed with other holders of the Second Convertible Notes.
