Notes Payable
In March 2014, we executed a Loan and Security Agreement (the Oxford Loan Agreement) with Oxford Finance, LLC (Oxford), providing for a loan to the Company of $30 million. Pursuant to the Oxford Loan Agreement, we issued Oxford: (1) Term Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $30,000,000, bearing interest at 8.5% (the Oxford Notes), and (2) Series KK warrants to purchase an aggregate of 391,032 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.918 per share, expiring in March 2021 (the Series KK warrants). We will make monthly payments of interest only commencing on April 1, 2014, and continuing through April 1, 2015 (the Amortization Date, which may be extended to April 1, 2016, and again to April 1, 2017, if the Company achieves certain milestones associated with the Company’s Lymphoseek product). Commencing on the Amortization Date, the Company will make consecutive equal monthly payments of principal and interest, in arrears, to the lenders then party to the Oxford Loan Agreement based on a repayment schedule of 48 months if the Amortization Date is April 1, 2015, 36 months if the Amortization Date is April 1, 2016, and 24 months if the Amortization Date is April 1, 2017. All unpaid principal, and accrued and unpaid interest, with respect to the Oxford Notes is due and payable in full on March 1, 2019. We will also make a final payment to the lenders in an aggregate amount equal to the original principal amount of the loan multiplied by 7.95% if the Amortization Date is April 1, 2015; 8.95% if the Amortization Date is extended to April 1, 2016; or 9.95% if the Amortization Date is extended to April 1, 2017. The Oxford Notes are collateralized by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets except for intellectual property, as to which the security interest is in rights to income or proceeds from the sale or licensing thereof. The Oxford Loan Agreement requires that the Company adhere to certain affirmative and negative covenants, including, without limitation, financial reporting requirements and a prohibition against the incurrence of indebtedness, or creation of additional liens, other than as specifically permitted by the terms of the Oxford Loan Agreement. As of September 30, 2014, the outstanding principal balance of the Oxford Loan Agreement was $30 million, and we were in compliance with all covenants of the Oxford Loan Agreement.
The Company recorded a debt discount related to the issuance of the Series KK Warrants and other fees to the lenders totaling $3.0 million. Debt issuance costs directly attributable to the Oxford Loan Agreement, totaling $120,000, were recorded as a non-current asset on the consolidated balance sheet on the closing date. The debt discount and debt offering costs are being amortized as non-cash interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the Oxford Loan Agreement. As of September 30, 2014, the balance of the debt discount was $2.6 million, and the balance of the debt issuance costs was $99,000.
Also in March 2014, in connection with the consummation of the Oxford Loan Agreement, we repaid all amounts outstanding under the General Electric Capital Corporation (GECC) and MidCap Financial SBIC, LP (MidCap) Loan and Security Agreement for a payoff amount of $26.7 million, which included payments of $500,000 as a pre-payment fee and $1,000,000 as an end-of-term final payment fee.
In March 2014, in connection with entering into the Oxford Loan Agreement, we entered into a second amendment to the Platinum Loan Agreement (the Second Platinum Amendment). Concurrent with the execution of the Second Platinum Amendment, the Company delivered an Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the Second Amended Platinum Note) to Platinum, which amended and restated the First Amended Platinum Note. The Second Amended Platinum Note adjusted the interest rate to the greater of (i) the United States prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 6.75%, (ii) 10.0%, and (iii) the highest rate of interest then payable by the Company pursuant to the Oxford Loan Agreement plus 0.125% (the effective interest rate at September 30, 2014 was 10.0%). Navidea, Platinum, and Oxford also entered into a Subordination Agreement, providing for subordination of the Company’s indebtedness under the Platinum Loan Agreement to the Company’s indebtedness under the Oxford Loan Agreement, among other customary terms and conditions. As such, no payments may be made under the Platinum loan until the Oxford Notes have been paid in full and therefore, the current balance outstanding under the Platinum loan has been classified as long-term notes payable to coincide with the maturity of the Oxford Notes. The fair value of the Second Amended Platinum Note includes the estimated fair value of an embedded conversion option. The net increase in the estimated fair value of the Second Amended Platinum Note of $104,000 was recorded as a non-cash change in fair value of financial instruments during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014. The estimated fair value of the Second Amended Platinum Note was $4.4 million as of September 30, 2014. As of September 30, 2014, the remaining outstanding principal balance of the Second Amended Platinum Note was approximately $3.2 million, with $31.8 million still available under the credit facility.
In July 2014, in connection with entering into the R-NAV joint enterprise, Navidea executed a promissory note in the principal amount of $666,666, payable in two equal installments on July 15, 2015 and July 15, 2016, the first and second anniversaries of the R-NAV transaction. The note will bear interest at the applicable federal rate, currently 0.31% per annum, compounded annually. Also in connection with entering into the R-NAV joint enterprise, we executed an amendment to the Oxford Loan Agreement that amended certain covenants to permit our investment in R-NAV, and R-NAV entered into a Subordination Agreement with Oxford to subordinate our indebtedness to R-NAV to our obligations under the Oxford Loan Agreement. See Note 7.
During the three-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we recorded interest expense of $921,000 and $976,000, respectively, related to our notes payable. Of these amounts, $201,000 and $258,000, respectively, related to amortization of the debt discounts and deferred financing costs related to our notes payable. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we recorded interest expense of $2.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively, related to our notes payable. Of these amounts, $638,000 and $502,000, respectively, related to amortization of the debt discounts and deferred financing costs related to our notes payable.
