Distribution and Supply Agreements
In August 2008, the Company entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with Cook Biotech Incorporated ("Cook Biotech") to distribute the Axoguard Nerve Connector and Axoguard Nerve Protector products worldwide and the parties subsequently amended the agreement on August 4, 2023. The distribution agreement expires on December 31, 2030. The Cook Biotech agreement establishes a formula for the transfer cost of the Axoguard products and requires certain minimum purchases by the Company, although, through mutual agreement, the parties have not established such minimums; and, to date, have not enforced such provision. Under the Cook Biotech agreement, the Company provides purchase orders to Cook Biotech, and Cook Biotech fulfills the purchase orders. The agreement allows for termination provisions for both parties. The loss of the ability to sell the Axoguard products could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business until other replacement products would be available.
In June 2017, the Company entered into the Nerve End Cap Supply Agreement (the "Supply Agreement") with Cook Biotech whereby Cook Biotech is the exclusive contract manufacturer of the Axoguard Nerve Cap; the parties subsequently amended the agreement on August 4, 2023. The Supply Agreement expires on December 31, 2030. The Supply Agreement establishes the terms and conditions in which Cook Biotech will manufacture the product for the Company. Under the Supply Agreement the Company provides purchase orders to Cook Biotech and Cook Biotech fulfills the purchase orders. The Supply Agreement allows for termination provisions for both parties. The loss of the Company's ability to sell the Axoguard Nerve Cap products could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business until other replacement products would become available.
In May 2023, the Company entered into a Supply and Manufacturing Agreement ("HA+ Supply Agreement") with Cook Biotech whereby Cook Biotech is the exclusive contract manufacturer of the Axoguard HA+ Nerve Protector. The HA+ Supply Agreement expires on July 1, 2030. The HA+ Supply Agreement establishes the terms and conditions in which Cook Biotech will manufacture, package, label and deliver the product to the Company. Under the HA+ Supply Agreement, the Company provides purchase orders to Cook Biotech, and Cook Biotech fulfills the purchase orders. The HA+ Supply Agreement allows for termination provisions for both parties. The loss of the Company's ability to sell the Axoguard products could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business until other replacement products would become available. On January 31, 2024, RTI Surgical, Inc. announced the acquisition of Cook Biotech. The acquisition of Cook Biotech has not had any material impact on our relationship with Cook Biotech or our operations.
Insurance Finance Agreement
We finance certain of our commercial insurance policies ("Insurance Financing Agreement"). Outstanding payments owed under the Insurance Financing Agreement are recorded as "prepaid expenses and other" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts owed under the Insurance Financing Agreement included in prepaid expenses and other were $1,012 and $0 as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Processing Facilities
The Company is highly dependent on the continued availability of its processing facilities at CTS and APC in Dayton, Ohio and could be harmed if the physical infrastructure of these facilities is unavailable for any prolonged period of time.
Certain Economic Development Grants
The Company obtained certain economic development grants from state and local authorities totaling up to $2,685 including $1,250 of cash grants to offset costs to acquire and develop the APC Facility. The economic development grants are subject to certain job creation milestones through December 31, 2023, and have clawback clauses if the Company does not meet the job creation milestones The Company requested an extension from the grant authorities to extend the job creation milestones and received approval to extend the evaluation date to December 31, 2024, and the expiration date to December 31, 2026. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has received $1,188 from the cash grants.
Fair Value of the Debt Derivative Liabilities
The fair value of the debt derivative liabilities is $2,458 as of June 30, 2024. The fair value of the debt derivative liabilities is determined using a probability-weighted expected return model based upon four potential settlement scenarios, one of which ended December 31, 2023, with the Credit Facility. The estimated settlement value of each scenario, which includes any required make-whole payment, is discounted to present value using a discount rate that is derived based upon the initial terms
of the Credit Facility at issuance and corroborated utilizing a synthetic rating analysis. The calculated fair values under the four scenarios are then compared to the fair value of a plain vanilla note, with the difference reflecting the fair value of the debt derivative liabilities. The Company estimated the make-whole payments required under each scenario according to the terms of the Credit Facility to generate an internal rate of return equal to 11.5% through the scheduled maturity dates, less the total of all quarterly interest and royalty payments previously paid to the Lender. The calculation utilized the XIRR function in Microsoft Excel as required by the Credit Facility. If the debt is not prepaid but instead is held to its scheduled maturities, the Company’s estimate of the make-whole payment for the first tranche and second tranche of the Credit Facility due on June 30, 2027, and June 30, 2028, respectively, are approximately zero. The Company has consistently applied this approach since the inception of the debt agreement on June 30, 2020.
The Company is aware that the Lender may have an alternative interpretation of the calculation of the make-whole payments that the Company believes does not properly utilize the same methodology utilized by the XIRR function in Microsoft Excel as described in the Credit Facility. The Company estimates the top end of the range of the make-whole payments if the debt is held to scheduled maturity under an alternative interpretation to be approximately $8,000 for the first tranche of the Credit Facility due on June 30, 2027, and approximately $4,000 for the second tranche of the Credit Facility due on June 30, 2028. Further, if the debt is prepaid prior to the scheduled maturity dates and subject to the alternative interpretation, the make-whole payment would be larger than the amounts herein.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is and may be subject to various claims, lawsuits, and proceedings in the ordinary course of the Company's business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. While there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of any legal proceeding or other loss contingency involving the Company, in the opinion of management, such claims are either adequately covered by insurance or otherwise indemnified, or are not expected individually or in the aggregate, to result in a material, adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows in a particular period could be materially affected by these contingencies.
