NOTES
TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(Tabular
information in thousands, except per share amounts)
1. OVERVIEW
Nature
of Business
Interpace
Biosciences, Inc. (“Interpace” or the “Company”) is a company that provides molecular diagnostics, bioinformatics
and pathology services for evaluation of risk of cancer by leveraging the latest technology in personalized medicine for improved patient
diagnosis and management. The Company develops and commercializes genomic tests and related first line assays principally focused on
early detection of patients with indeterminate biopsies and at high risk of cancer using the latest technology.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes (the “Interim Financial Statements”)
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (Interpace
Diagnostics Lab Inc., Interpace Diagnostics Corporation, and Interpace Diagnostics, LLC), and related notes as included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
on March 27, 2023 and as amended on April 28, 2023.
The
Interim Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Interim Financial Statements
include all normal recurring adjustments that, in the judgment of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such interim financial
statements. Discontinued operations include the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries: Group DCA, LLC, InServe Support Solutions;
and TVG, Inc., its Commercial Services business unit which was sold on December 22, 2015 and its Interpace Pharma Solutions business
(“Pharma Solutions”) which was sold on August 31, 2022. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.
3. GOING CONCERN
In
October 2021, the Company entered into a $7.5 million revolving credit facility with Comerica Incorporated (“Comerica”) (the
“Comerica Loan Agreement”). See Note 17, Revolving Line of Credit, for more details. Also in October 2021, the Company
entered into an $8.0 million term loan with BroadOak Fund V, L.P. (“BroadOak”) (the “BroadOak Term Loan”), the
proceeds of which were used to repay in full at their maturity the existing secured promissory note with Ampersand Capital Partners (“Ampersand”)
(the “Ampersand Note”) and 1315 Capital II, L.P (“1315 Capital”) (the “1315 Capital Note”). In May
2022, the Company entered into a Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note agreement with BroadOak for an additional $2.0 million (the
“Convertible Note”), which was converted into a subordinated term loan and was added to the outstanding BroadOak Term Loan
balance. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details.
In
January 2022, the Company’s registration statement for a rights offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
became effective; however, the rights offering was subsequently terminated later in January 2022 when the Company announced that the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, issued a new billing policy whereby CMS will no longer reimburse for the use of
the Company’s ThyGeNEXT® and ThyraMIR® tests when billed together by the same provider/supplier for
the same beneficiary on the same date of service. However, on February 28, 2022, the Company announced that the National Correct Coding
Initiative (NCCI) program issued a response on behalf of CMS stating that the January 2022 billing policy reimbursement change for ThyGeNEXT®
(0245U) and ThyraMIR® (0018U) tests has been retroactively reversed to January 1, 2022. In May 2022, the Company
was notified by CMS/NCCI that processing of claims for dates of service after January 1, 2022 would be completed beginning July 1, 2022.
However, on June 9, 2022, the Company was notified that our local Medicare Administrator Contractor, Novitas re-priced ThyGeNEXT®
(0245U) from $2,919 to $806.59 retroactively effective to January 1, 2022. On July 20, 2022 the Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory
Tests (CDLT) Advisory Panel affirmed a gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT® of $806.59. As a result of the ThyGeNEXT®
pricing change, the Company reduced its net realizable value, or NRV rates, for ThyGeNEXT® Medicare billing to reflect
the $806.59 pricing for tests performed during the second quarter of 2022. In addition, in order to reflect the retroactive pricing change
to January 1, 2022, the Company recorded an NRV adjustment of $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2022 to reduce revenue recorded
during the first quarter of 2022. Effective January 1, 2023, the gapfill price for ThyGeNEXT® was set at $1,266.07.
Further,
along with many laboratories, the Company may be affected by the Proposed Local Coverage Determination (“LCD”) DL39365, which
was posted on June 9, 2022 and is currently under consideration by Novitas. If finalized, this Proposed LCD, which governs “Genetic
Testing for Oncology,” could impact the existing LCD for one of our molecular tests, PancraGEN®. If Novitas restricts
coverage for PancraGEN®, the Company’s liquidity could be negatively impacted beginning in Fiscal 2023.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company had operating income from continuing operations of $0.7 million. As of March 31, 2023,
the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5.6 million, total current assets of $12.5 million and current liabilities of $13.9 million.
As of May 8, 2023, the Company had approximately $6.7 million of cash on hand.
The
Company may not generate positive cash flows from operations for the year ending December 31, 2023. The Company intends to meet its ongoing
capital needs by using its available cash and availability under the Comerica Loan Agreement, as well as through targeted margin improvement;
collection of accounts receivable; containment of costs; and the potential use of other financing options and other strategic alternatives.
However, if the Company is unable to meet the financial covenants under the Comerica Loan Agreement, the revolving line of credit and
notes payable will become due and payable immediately. As of May 1, 2023, the Company had $2.2 million available under the Loan Agreement.
The
Company continues to explore various strategic alternatives, dilutive and non-dilutive sources of funding, including equity and debt
financings, strategic alliances, business development and other sources in order to provide additional liquidity. With the delisting
of its common stock from Nasdaq in February 2021, and the possible removal of its common stock from trading on the OTCQX® if
it fails to meet minimum market capitalization of $5 million by July 3, 2023, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital
on terms acceptable to it has been adversely impacted. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such
funding on terms acceptable to it.
The
Company’s consolidated financial statements assumes the Company will continue as a going concern. Its ability to continue as a
going concern depends on having working capital for vendor payments, meeting short-term obligations on other accrued liabilities, and
amongst other requirements, making interest payments on its debt obligations. Without positive operating margins and sufficient working
capital and the ability to meet its debt obligations, our business will be jeopardized and we may not be able to continue in our current
structure, if at all. Under these circumstances, the Company would likely have to consider other options, such as selling assets, raising
additional debt or equity capital, cutting costs or otherwise reducing our cash requirements, or negotiating with our creditors to restructure
our applicable obligations. With the proceeds received from the sale of the Pharma Solutions business, as well as the expected improvement
in future operating cash flows associated with the disposition, as of the date of this filing, the Company anticipates that current cash
and cash equivalents and forecasted cash receipts will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements through the next twelve
months.

5. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting
Estimates
The
preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management’s estimates are based on historical
experience, facts and circumstances available at the time, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Significant estimates include accounting for valuation allowances related to deferred income taxes, contingent consideration,
allowances for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition, unrecognized tax benefits, and asset impairments involving intangible assets.
The Company periodically reviews these matters and reflects changes in estimates in earnings as appropriate. Actual results could materially
differ from those estimates.
Revenue
Recognition
We
derive our revenues from the performance of proprietary assays or tests. The Company’s performance obligation is fulfilled upon
the completion, review and release of test results to the customer. The Company subsequently bills third-party payers or direct-bill
payers for the tests performed. Under Accounting Standards Codification 606, revenue is recognized based on the estimated transaction
price or net realizable value, which is determined based on historical collection rates by each payer category for each proprietary test
offered by the Company. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, for all third party and direct-bill payers
and proprietary tests, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price using
the expected value method based on historical experience.
We
regularly review the ultimate amounts received from the third-party and direct-bill payers and related estimated reimbursement rates
and adjust the NRV’s and related contractual allowances accordingly. If actual collections and related NRV’s vary significantly
from our estimates, we will adjust the estimates of contractual allowances, which affects net revenue in the period such variances become
known.
For
our Pharma Solutions services, project level activities, including study setup and project management, were satisfied over the life of
the contract while performance-related obligations were satisfied at a point in time as the Company processes samples delivered by the
customer. Revenues were recognized at a point in time when the test results or other deliverables are reported to the customer.
Financing
and Payment
For
non-Medicare claims, our payment terms vary by payer category. Payment terms for direct-payers in our clinical services are typically
thirty days and in our pharma services, up to sixty days. Commercial third-party-payers are required to respond to a claim within a time
period established by their respective state regulations, generally between thirty to sixty days. However, payment for commercial third-party
claims may be subject to a denial and appeal process, which could take up to two years in some instances where multiple appeals are submitted.
The Company generally appeals all denials from commercial third-party payers. We bill Medicare directly for tests performed for Medicare
patients and must accept Medicare’s fee schedule for the covered tests as payment in full.
Costs
to Obtain or Fulfill a Customer Contract
Sales
commissions are expensed in the period in which they have been earned. These costs are recorded in sales and marketing expense in the
condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Accounts
Receivable
The
Company’s accounts receivable represent unconditional rights to consideration and are generated using its clinical services and
Pharma Solutions services. The Company’s clinical services are fulfilled upon completion of the test, review and release of the
test results. In conjunction with fulfilling these services, the Company bills the third-party payer or direct-bill payer. Contractual
adjustments represent the difference between the list prices and the reimbursement rates set by third-party payers, including Medicare,
commercial payers, and amounts billed to direct-bill payers. Specific accounts may be written off after several appeals, which in some
cases may take longer than twelve months.
Leases
The
Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease in whole or in part at the inception of the contract. Right-of-use (“ROU”)
assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term while lease liabilities represent our obligation
to make lease payments arising from the lease. All leases with terms greater than twelve months result in the recognition of a ROU asset
and a liability at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Unless a lease provides
all of the information required to determine the implicit interest rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information
available at the commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. We use the implicit interest rate in the lease
when readily determinable.
Our
lease terms include all non-cancelable periods and may include options to extend (or to not terminate) the lease when it is reasonably
certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with terms of twelve months or less at the commencement date are expensed on a straight-line
basis over the lease term and do not result in the recognition of an asset or liability. See Note 8, Leases.
Other
Current Assets
Other
current assets consisted of the following as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

$ | 2,173 | | |
$ | 2,294 | |
Long-Lived
Assets, including Finite-Lived Intangible Assets
Finite-lived
intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization of finite-lived acquired intangible assets is recognized
on a straight-line basis, using the estimated useful lives of the assets of approximately two years to ten years in acquisition-related
amortization expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The
Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is
less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized by reducing the recorded value of the asset to its fair
value measured by future discounted cash flows. This analysis requires estimates of the amount and timing of projected cash flows and,
where applicable, judgments associated with, among other factors, the appropriate discount rate. Such estimates are critical in determining
whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount of such charge if an impairment loss is deemed to be necessary.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Cash
and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their relative short-term nature. The Company’s
financial liabilities reflected at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements include contingent consideration, warrant
liability and note payable. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including
market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants
would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation
technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market-corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation
techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based upon observable inputs used
in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy
ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values into three broad levels as follows:
|
Level
1: |
Valuations
for assets and liabilities traded in active markets from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical
assets or liabilities. |
|
|
|
|
Level
2: |
Valuations
for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third-party pricing services
for identical or similar assets or liabilities. |
|
|
|
|
Level
3: |
Valuations
incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities. |
In
instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy,
the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to
the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The valuation
methodologies used for the Company’s financial instruments measured on a recurring basis at fair value, including the general classification
of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth in the tables below:

See
Note 10, Other Accrued Expenses |
In
connection with the acquisition of certain assets from Asuragen, Inc., the Company recorded contingent consideration related to contingent
payments and other revenue-based payments. The Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted
income approach derived from revenue estimates. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market
and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.
In
connection with the BroadOak loan, the Company records the loan at fair value. The fair value of the loan is determined by a probability-weighted
approach regarding the loan’s change in control feature. See Note 14, Notes Payable, for more details. The fair value measurement
is based on the estimated probability of a change in control and thus represents a Level 3 measurement.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
From
time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business.
When the Company is aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. If it is probable that a
loss will result and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company will record a liability for the loss. In addition
to the estimated loss, the recorded liability includes probable and estimable legal costs associated with the claim or potential claim.
Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may
harm the Company’s business. There is no pending litigation involving the Company at this time.
Due
to the nature of the businesses in which the Company is engaged, it is subject to certain risks. Such risks include, among others, risk
of liability for personal injury or death to persons using products or services that the Company promotes or commercializes. There can
be no assurance that substantial claims or liabilities will not arise in the future due to the nature of the Company’s business
activities. There is also the risk of employment related litigation and other litigation in the ordinary course of business.
The
Company could also be held liable for errors and omissions of its employees in connection with the services it performs that are outside
the scope of any indemnity or insurance policy. The Company could be materially adversely affected if it were required to pay damages
or incur defense costs in connection with a claim that is outside the scope of an indemnification agreement; if the indemnity, although
applicable, is not performed in accordance with its terms; or if the Company’s liability exceeds the amount of applicable insurance
or indemnity.

11. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Historically,
stock options have been granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the common stock on the date of grant, with expiration
10 years from the date they are granted, and generally vest over a one to three-year period for employees and members of the Board. Upon
exercise, new shares will be issued by the Company. The restricted shares and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted to
Board members and employees generally have a three-year graded vesting period and are subject to accelerated vesting and forfeiture under
certain circumstances.
The
following table provides the weighted average assumptions used in determining the fair value of the stock option awards granted during
the three-month period ended March 31, 2022. There were no stock option awards issued in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

12. INCOME TAXES
Generally,
accounting standards require companies to provide for income taxes each quarter based on their estimate of the effective tax rate for
the full year. The authoritative guidance for accounting for income taxes allows use of the discrete method when it provides a better
estimate of income tax expense. Due to the Company’s valuation allowance position, it is the Company’s position that the
discrete method provides a more accurate estimate of income tax expense and therefore income tax expense for the current quarter has
been presented using the discrete method. As the year progresses, the Company refines its estimate based on the facts and circumstances
by each tax jurisdiction. The following table summarizes income tax expense on income (loss) from continuing operations and the effective
tax rate for the three- month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
We
operate under one segment which is the business of developing and selling clinical services.
14. NOTES PAYABLE
BroadOak
Loan
On
October 29, 2021, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into the BroadOak Loan Agreement, providing for a term loan in the aggregate
principal amount of $8,000,000 (the “Term Loan”). Funding of the Term Loan took place on November 1, 2021. The Term Loan
matures upon the earlier of (i) October 31, 2024 or (ii) the occurrence of a change in control, and bears interest at the rate of 9%
per annum. The Term Loan is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets
and is subordinate to the Company’s $7,500,000 revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank. See Note 17, Revolving Line of
Credit. The Term Loan had an origination fee of 3% of the Term Loan amount, and a terminal payment equal to (i) 15% of the original
principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan,
(ii) 20% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change of control occurs after the first anniversary but on or prior
to the second anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan and (iii) 30% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan if the change
of control occurs after the second anniversary of the funding of the Term Loan, or if the Term Loan is repaid on its maturity date.
The
BroadOak Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative restrictive covenants that are applicable from and after the date of the Term
Loan advance. These restrictive covenants, which include restrictions on certain mergers, acquisitions, investments, encumbrances, etc.,
could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. The BroadOak Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default.
In
connection with the BroadOak Loan Agreement, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into that certain First Amendment to Loan and Security
Agreement and Consent with Comerica, dated as of November 1, 2021 (the “Comerica Amendment”), pursuant to which Comerica
consented to the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ entry into the BroadOak Loan Agreement, and amended that certain Loan and
Security Agreement among Comerica, the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Comerica Loan Agreement”) to, among other things,
permit the indebtedness, liens and encumbrances contemplated by the BroadOak Loan Agreement.
As
a condition for BroadOak to extend the Term Loan to the Company and its subsidiaries, the Company’s existing creditor, Comerica,
and BroadOak entered into that certain Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2021, pursuant to which BroadOak
agreed to subordinate all of the indebtedness and obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries owing to BroadOak to all of the indebtedness
and obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries owing to Comerica (the “Intercreditor Agreement”). BroadOak further agreed
to subordinate all of its respective security interests in assets or property of the Company and its subsidiaries to Comerica’s
security interests in such assets or property. The Intercreditor Agreement provides that it is solely for the benefit of BroadOak and
Comerica and is not for the benefit of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
The
Company concluded that the Note met the definition of a “recognized financial liability” which is an acceptable financial
instrument eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10-15-4, and did not meet the definition of any of the financial instruments
listed within ASC 825-10-15-5 that are not eligible for the fair value option. The Note is not convertible and does not have any component
recorded to shareholders’ equity. Accordingly, the Company elected the fair value option for the Note.
BroadOak
Convertible Note
On
May 5, 2022, the Company issued a Convertible Note to BroadOak, pursuant to which BroadOak funded an aggregate principal amount of $2
million (the “Convertible Debt”).
The
Convertible Note was to be converted into shares of common stock of the Company in connection with, and upon the consummation of, a private
placement transaction pursuant to which the Company would issue common stock to certain investors, and such conversion would be subject
to the same terms and conditions (including purchase price per share) applicable to the purchase of common stock of the Company by such
investors. Since the private placement transaction was not consummated by August 5, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”), the Convertible
Note was converted into an additional term loan advance under the Company’s existing BroadOak Loan Agreement on the Maturity Date.
The Convertible Debt bore interest at a fixed rate of 9.0% per annum and was unsecured. There were no scheduled amortization payments
prior to the Maturity Date. The Convertible Note contained customary representations and warranties and customary events of default.
The
Company entered into a) a consent letter (the “Comerica Consent”) with Comerica, pursuant to which Comerica consented to
the issuance of the Convertible Note, the incurrence of the Convertible Debt and the conversion of the Convertible Debt into common stock
of the Company or an additional term loan advance under the BroadOak Loan Agreement.

16. MEZZANINE EQUITY
Redeemable
Preferred Stock
On
January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement (the “Securities Purchase and Exchange
Agreement”) with 1315 Capital and Ampersand (collectively, the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to
sell to the Investors an aggregate of $20.0 million in Series B Preferred Stock of the Company, at an issuance price per share of $1,000.
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase and Exchange Agreement, 1315 Capital agreed to purchase 19,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock
at an aggregate purchase price of $19.0 million and Ampersand agreed to purchase 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at an aggregate
purchase price of $1.0 million.
In
addition, the Company agreed to exchange $27.0 million of the Company’s existing Series A convertible preferred stock, par value
$0.01 per share, held by Ampersand (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), represented by 270 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
with a stated value of $100,000 per share, which represents all of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock,
for 27,000 newly issued shares of Series B Preferred Stock (such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the “Exchange Shares”
and such transaction, the “Exchange”). Following the Exchange, no shares of Series A Preferred Stock remained designated,
authorized, issued or outstanding. The Series B Preferred Stock has a conversion price of $6.00.
Voting
On
any matter presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company
(or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), each holder of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled
to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of the Company’s Common Stock into which the shares of Series B
Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter.
Except as provided by law or by the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”), holders of Series B Preferred Stock will vote together with the holders of Common
Stock as a single class and on an as-converted to Common Stock basis.
Director
Designation Rights
The
Certificate of Designation also provides each Investor with the following director designation rights: for so long such Investor holds
at least sixty percent (60%) of the Series B Preferred Stock issued to it on the Issuance Date (as defined therein), such Investor will
be entitled to elect two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), provided that one of the directors
qualifies as an “independent director” under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the listing rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market (or any successor
rule or similar rule promulgated by another exchange on which the Company’s securities are then listed or designated) (“Independent
Director”). However, if at any time such Investor holds less than sixty percent (60%), but at least forty percent (40%), of the
Series B Preferred Stock issued to them on the Issuance Date, such Investor would only be entitled to elect one director to the Board.
Any director elected pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation may be removed without cause by, and only by, the affirmative
vote of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock. A vacancy in any directorship filled by the holders of Series B Preferred Stock may
be filled only by vote or written consent in lieu of a meeting of such holders of Series B Preferred Stock or by any remaining director
or directors elected by such holders of Series B Preferred Stock.
Conversion
The
Certificate of Designation provides that from and after the Issuance Date and subject to the terms of the Certificate of Designation,
each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time and from time to time, at the option of the holder into a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to dividing the amount equal to the greater of the Stated Value of such Series B Preferred Stock, plus any
dividends declared but unpaid thereon, or such amount per share as would have been payable had each such share been converted into Common
Stock immediately prior to a liquidation, by six dollars ($6.00) (subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split,
combination, or other similar recapitalization affecting such shares). The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued
through conversion of all of the New Investment Shares and Exchange Shares is 7,833,334 shares (subject to appropriate adjustment in
the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization affecting such shares).
Mandatory
Conversion
If
the Company consummates the sale of shares of Common Stock to the public in a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act pursuant to which the price of the Common Stock in such offering is at least
equal to twelve dollars ($12.00) (subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination, or other similar
recapitalization affecting such shares) and such offering does not include warrants (or any other convertible security) and results in
at least $25,000,000.00 in proceeds, net of the underwriting discount and commissions, to the Company, and the Common Stock continues
to be listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market or another exchange, all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically
be converted into shares of Common Stock, at the then effective Series B Conversion Ratio (as defined in the Certificate of Designation).
Liquidation
Upon
any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or Deemed Liquidation (as defined in the Certificate
of Designation) (a “Liquidation”), the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding will be entitled to
be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders (on a pari passu basis with the holders of any
class or series of preferred stock ranking on liquidation on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock), and before any payment will
be made to the holders of Common Stock or any other class or series of preferred stock ranking on liquidation junior to the Series B
Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the greater of (i) the
Stated Value of such share of Series B Preferred Stock, plus any dividends declared but unpaid thereon, or (ii) such amount per share
as would have been payable had each such share been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such Liquidation.
As
of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 47,000 Series B issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock, respectively.
17. REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT
On
October 13, 2021, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into the Comerica Loan Agreement with Comerica, providing for a revolving
credit facility of up to $7,500,000 (the “Credit Facility”). The Company may use the proceeds of the Credit Facility for
working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The
amount that may be borrowed under the Credit Facility is the lower of (i) the revolving limit of $7,500,000 (the “Revolving Line”)
and (ii) 80% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable plus an applicable non-formula amount consisting of $2,000,000 of additional
availability at close not based upon the Company’s eligible accounts receivable, with such additional availability reducing by
$250,000 per quarter beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 2022. Borrowings on the Credit Facility are limited to $5,000,000 until
80% of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ customers are paying into a collection account or segregated governmental account
with Comerica. The Revolving Line can also include, at the Company’s option, credit card services with a sublimit of $300,000.
Borrowings on the Revolving Line are subject to an interest rate equal to prime plus 0.50%, with prime being the greater of (x) Comerica’s
stated prime rate or (y) the sum of (A) the daily adjusting LIBOR rate plus (B) 2.5% per annum. The Company is also required to pay an
unused facility fee quarterly in arrears in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum on the average unused but available portion of the Revolving
Line for such quarter.
The
Credit Facility matures on September 30, 2023, and is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company
and its subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2023, the balance of the revolving line was $2.2 million.
The
Comerica Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative restrictive covenants that are applicable whether or not any amounts are outstanding
under the Comerica Loan Agreement. These restrictive covenants, which include restrictions on certain mergers, acquisitions, investments,
encumbrances, etc., could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. The Comerica Loan Agreement also contains financial covenants
requiring specified minimum liquidity and minimum revenue thresholds, which the Company was in compliance with as of March 31, 2023,
and also contains customary events of default. In April 2022, Comerica waived certain covenants specifically relating to the Company
receiving financial statements with a going concern comment or qualification. In April 2022 and August 2022, Comerica waived certain
covenants specifically relating to failure to maintain bank accounts outside of Comerica in an aggregate amount not to exceed $0.5 million
during the transition period. Additionally, in August 2022, Comerica waived certain covenants relating to failure to segregate collections
made from government account debtors from collections made from all other account debtors and customers.
