Note 15 Sale of ENTADFI

 

On April 19, 2023, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) to sell substantially all of the assets related to ENTADFI® (finasteride and tadalafil) capsules for oral use, a new treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia that was approved by the FDA in December 2021, with ONCO. The transaction closed on April 19, 2023. The purchase price for the transaction was $20.0 million, consisting of $6.0 million paid at closing, $4.0 million payable pursuant to a promissory note due on September 30, 2023, $5.0 million payable pursuant to a promissory note due on April 19, 2024 (the “April 2024 Promissory Note”), and $5.0 million payable pursuant to a promissory note due on September 30, 2024 (the “September 2024 Promissory Note” and, together with the April 2024 Promissory Note, the “ONCO Promissory Notes”), plus up to $80.0 million based on ONCO’s net revenues from ENTADFI after closing (the “Milestone Payments”). The Company believes the probability of receiving any Milestone Payments is remote.

 

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into an Amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) providing that the promissory note for the $4.0 million installment of the purchase price due September 30, 2023 would be deemed paid and fully satisfied upon (1) the payment to the Company of the sum of $1.0 million in immediately available funds on September 29, 2023 and (2) the issuance to the Company by October 3, 2023 of 3,000 shares of ONCO Preferred Stock. The Company received payment of $1.0 million on September 29, 2023 and the ONCO Preferred Stock on October 3, 2023, which the Company determined had a fair value as of October 3, 2023 of $0.9 million. The ONCO Preferred Stock was convertible by the Company at any time and from time to time from and after one year from the date of issuance of the ONCO Preferred Stock into that number of shares of the Purchaser’s common stock determined by dividing the stated value of $1,000 per share by the Conversion Price of $0.5254 per share. The ONCO Preferred Stock issued to the Company was initially convertible into an aggregate of approximately 5,709,935 shares of ONCO’s common stock, subject to certain shareholder approval limitations. ONCO agreed in the Amendment to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such shareholder approval by December 31, 2023. Shareholder approval was obtained on September 5, 2024. Effective September 24, 2024, ONCO effected a reverse stock split of all the outstanding shares of its issued and outstanding common stock at a ratio of one-for-forty (1:40). Proportional adjustments were made to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the ONCO Preferred Stock, such that the ONCO Preferred Stock was convertible into 142,749 shares of ONCO's common stock. On September 24, 2024, the Company converted all of the ONCO Preferred Stock into 142,749 shares of ONCO Common Stock. 

 

On April 24, 2024, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the "Forbearance Agreement") with ONCO, relating to certain defaults under the ONCO Promissory Notes. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, (a) ONCO agreed to make a payment of $50,000 of the principal payable under the April 2024 Promissory Note not later than April 29, 2024, which was paid on April 25, 2024, and (b) the Company agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Forbearance Agreement, to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies on account of the failure by ONCO to pay the amounts due under the April 2024 Promissory Note on the due date of April 19, 2024, and on account of any failure by ONCO to make any mandatory repayment under the ONCO Promissory Notes that may have become due or may become due in connection with certain transactions relating to ONCO’s acquisition of Proteomedix AG, in each case for a period (the “Forbearance Period”) commencing on April 24, 2024 and ending on the earlier of (a) March 31, 2025 and (b) the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement). The Company also agreed that during the Forbearance Period the default provision in the ONCO Promissory Notes relating to insolvency of ONCO will not apply.

 

ONCO agreed in the Forbearance Agreement to make the following required payments during the Forbearance Period towards the remaining principal balance of the April 2024 Promissory Note: (1) monthly payments equal to 15% of cash receipts of ONCO or its subsidiaries from certain sale or licensing revenues or payments; and (2) payment of 10% of the net proceeds from certain financing or other transactions outside the ordinary course of business completed by ONCO or any of its subsidiaries during the Forbearance Period.

 

On September 19, 2024, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Forbearance Agreement and Amendment to September 2024 Note (the “Amended Forbearance Agreement”) with ONCO. The Amended Forbearance Agreement amends and restates the entirety of the Forbearance Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the Amended Forbearance Agreement, the forbearance period relating to the Company’s agreement to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies on account of the failure by the Borrower to pay the amounts due under the April 2024 Promissory Note on the due date of April 19, 2024 continues to end on the earlier of (a)  March 31, 2025 and (b) the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Amended Forbearance Agreement) (such period, the “April 2024 Forbearance Period”). The Amended Forbearance Agreement extends the due date for the September Promissory Note until the earlier to occur of: (i)  June 30, 2025 or (ii) the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Amended Forbearance Agreement. The Amended Forbearance Agreement also effected certain modifications to the payment terms in the Forbearance Agreement and amended certain terms of the September 2024 Promissory Note as summarized below.

 

The Borrower agreed in the Amended Forbearance Agreement to make the following required payments (the “Required Payments”) during the April 2024 Forbearance Period first to accrued and unpaid interest under the April 2024 Promissory Note and then any remainder to the outstanding principal amount of the April 2024 Promissory Note:

 

monthly payments equal to 25% (increased from 15% in the Original Forbearance Agreement) of cash receipts of the Borrower or its subsidiaries from certain sale or licensing revenues or payments, which increased amount shall begin on October 20, 2024 for cash receipts in September 2024; and
  payment of 20% (increased from 10% in the Original Forbearance Agreement) of the net proceeds from certain financing or other transactions outside the ordinary course of business completed by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries during the April 2024 Forbearance Period, which increased amount will begin for any net proceeds received after September 19, 2024.

 

The remaining balance of the April 2024 Promissory Note will be due at the end of the April 2024 Forbearance Period.

 

The Borrower and the Company also agreed to the following amendments to the September 2024 Promissory Note in the Amended Forbearance Agreement:

 

As noted above, an extension of the maturity date to June 30, 2025;
  The accrual of interest at the rate of 10% per annum on any unpaid principal balance of the September 2024 Promissory Note commencing on October 1, 2024 through the date that the outstanding principal balance under the September 2024 Promissory Note is paid in full.
  Any amounts owed on the September 2024 Promissory Note, including but not limited to unpaid principal and accrued interest, will be paid in cash or, upon the mutual written consent of the Borrower and the Company, in shares of the Borrower’s common stock or a combination of cash and the Borrower’s common stock.
  Following full repayment of all principal and interest under the April 2024 Promissory Note, the Borrower will make the Required Payments first towards accrued and unpaid interest under the September 2024 Promissory Note and then towards the remaining principal balance payable under the September 2024 Promissory Note.
  If the aggregate unpaid principal outstanding under the April 2024 Promissory Note and the September 2024 Promissory Note and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon is repaid in cash on or before December 31, 2024, then the total principal balance under the September 2024 Promissory Note that will be payable by the Borrower in satisfaction of its obligations under the September 2024 Promissory Note will be reduced from $5,000,000 to $3,500,000.

 

The Company and ONCO entered into a Waiver and Amendment No. 1 to the Forbearance Agreement, dated November 26, 2024, that (x) extended the time for the payment by ONCO of the monthly payment of a percentage of its cash receipts referenced above and conditioned the payment of those amounts upon ONCO being able to raise capital of at least $97,000 and (y) increased the percentage of the net proceeds from certain financings payable to the Company from 20% to 25%. 

 

The Company received payments of $0.3 million during the year ended September 30, 2024 and $0.4 million subsequent to September 30, 2024 under the Forbearance Agreement and the Amended Forbearance Agreement. 

 

The Company determined that it was not probable, at the time of the transaction and at September 30, 2024, that substantially all of the consideration promised under the Asset Purchase Agreement would be collected. Therefore, the Company recognized the difference between the nonrefundable consideration received and the carrying amount of the assets as a gain. The Company recorded a gain of approximately $5.7 million on the transaction during fiscal 2023. The Company recognized a gain on sale of $1.2 million during year ended September 30, 2024 based on the determination of the fair market value of the ONCO Preferred Stock when received and the cash received from ONCO under the Forbearance Agreement and the Amended Forbearance Agreement. Additional gain could be recognized in future periods if additional consideration is received or when it is deemed probable that substantially all of the consideration promised will be collected. The Company will continue to evaluate the collectability of the ONCO Promissory Notes for future installments of the purchase price.
