Note 8—Related Party Transactions During the six months ended November 30, 2014, the Company issued an unsecured convertible promissory note (see Note 4 and 5) in the aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000 to Alpha Venture Capital Partners, L.P. (“AVCP”), whose principal is now a director of the Company. The AVCP Note bears simple interest at the annual rate of 5%, payable quarterly. The principal balance of the AVCP Note is due and payable in full on September 26, 2016, subject to acceleration of payment in the event of default. Prepayment is permitted without penalty. The AVCP Note includes events of default for nonpayment of principal or interest when due or other breaches of the AVCP Note, as well as for breach of any term of the AVCP Note and related warrant agreement. The principal amount of the AVCP Note plus unpaid accrued interest is convertible at the election of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time prior to maturity at an initial conversion price of $1.00 per share. The conversion price is subject to (i) adjustment for stock splits and similar corporate events and (ii) reduction to a price per share that is 10% below the lowest sale price that is below $.9444 per share, for shares of CytoDyn common stock sold in future securities offerings including sales to AVCP and its designees, subject to certain exempt transactions. Without AVCP’s prior written consent, the Company may not incur additional indebtedness for borrowed money, other than up to an additional $6.0 million in convertible promissory notes that may be issued to AVCP or related parties, unless such indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Company’s obligations under the Note and any additional notes issued to AVCP or related parties. As part of the AVCP investment, the Company issued a warrant to AVCP covering 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock exercisable at a price of $0.50 per share. The warrants are currently exercisable in full, include a cashless exercise feature, and will expire on December 31, 2019. As disclosed in Note 4, during the six months ended November 30, 2014, a director converted a $1,000,000 convertible a Note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 into 1,333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock, resulting in $733,333 of proceeds to the Company. As disclosed in Note 4, this conversion was a result of an offer to induce conversion by all holders of convertible notes with a three year term. The above terms and amounts are not necessarily indicative of the terms and amounts that would have been incurred had comparable transactions been entered into with independent parties. |
