Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
September 30, 2021, STRATA Skin Sciences, Inc. (the
“Company”) entered into (a) a credit and security agreement (the
“MidCap
Credit Agreement”) among MidCap Financial Trust (
“MidCap”), as administrative agent, and the lenders identified therein, (b) an intellectual property security agreement (the
“IP Security Agreement” and together with the MidCap Credit Agreement,
the
“Financing Agreements”) with MidCap, (c) a warrant agreement to purchase shares of the common stock of
the Company (the
“Warrant”) with MidCap Funding XXVII Trust (together with any registered holder from time to time or any holder of the
shares issuable or issued upon the exercise or conversion of the Warrant, the
“Warrantholder”), and (d) a registration
rights agreement (the
“Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Warrantholder.
The MidCap Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan facility of $8.0 million, of which the full amount was drawn
by
the Company on
September 30, 2021. Borrowings under the MidCap Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR (with a LIBOR floor rate of 0.50%) plus 7.50%.
The Company is obligated to make only interest payments (payable
monthly in arrears) through
September 30, 2024. Commencing on
October 1, 2024 and continuing for the remaining twenty-four months of the facility,
the Company will be required to make monthly interest payments and monthly principal payments
based on the amortization schedule set forth in the MidCap Credit Agreement, subject to certain adjustments as described in the MidCap Credit Agreement. The final maturity date under the MidCap Credit Agreement is
September 1, 2026, unless
earlier terminated. The MidCap Credit Agreement requires
the Company to dedicate 100% of certain insurance proceeds to the prepayment of outstanding term loan, subject to certain exceptions and net of certain expenses and repayments. The
Company may voluntarily prepay the outstanding term loan under the MidCap Credit Agreement, with such prepayment at least $5.0 million, at any time upon 30 days’ written notice.
In connection with both mandatory and voluntary prepayments,
the Company will be required to pay a prepayment fee equal to (i) 4.00%
of the outstanding principal prepaid or required to be prepaid (whichever is greater), if the prepayment is made within twelve months of
September 30, 2021, (ii) 3.00% of the outstanding principal prepaid or required to be prepaid (whichever is
greater), if the prepayment is made between twelve months and twenty-four months after
September 30, 2021, (iii) 2.00% of the outstanding principal prepaid or required to be prepaid (whichever is greater), if the prepayment is made between
twenty-four months and thirty-six months after
September 30, 2021, or (iv) 1.00% of the outstanding principal prepaid or required to be prepaid (whichever is greater), if the prepayment is made after thirty-six months after
September 30, 2021
and prior to the maturity date.
Subject to customary exceptions and exclusions, all obligations under the MidCap Credit Agreement are secured pursuant to the
terms of the Financing Agreements.
The MidCap Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and conditions. The
MidCap Credit Agreement also contains a number of negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions and waivers, restrict
the Company’s ability to:
•
|
incur additional indebtedness;
|
•
|
pay cash dividends on its capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire its capital stock (other than repurchases pursuant to the terms of
employee stock purchase plans, employee restricted stock agreements or similar plans in an aggregate amount not to exceed $500,000 in any twelve month period);
|
•
|
make investments, loans and acquisitions;
|

make any significant change in accounting treatment or reporting practices; and
|
•
|
amend, modify or waive certain material agreements (if the effect on the Company or loans would be material) or its organizational
documents.
|
Further, the MidCap Credit Agreement contains a quarterly financial covenant that requires
the Company to not have less than $24.0 million of net
revenue (raised to $30.0 million by
December 31, 2023) for the trailing 12-month period as of
September 30, 2021, with compliance measured on the last day of each fiscal quarter beginning on
September 30, 2021.
The MidCap Credit Agreement contains various events of default, including the following:
•
|
failure to make any payment of principal or interest under the MidCap Credit Agreement when due;
|
•
|
failure to comply with any term contained in the MidCap Credit Agreement or related documents;

|
•
|
commencing a voluntary case or other proceeding, or having such case or proceeding commenced against the Company, seeking liquidation,
reorganization or other relief with respect to debts under any bankruptcy or insolvency;
|
•
|
any payments of any subordinated debt (other than specifically permitted payments);
|
•
|
if the Company’s common stock fails to remain publicly traded and registered with a public securities exchange;
|

(i) suspend or terminate the term loan commitment and Midcap and the other lenders’ obligations with respect thereto, and (ii) by notice to
the Company, declare all or any portion of the obligations under the MidCap Credit Agreement to be
immediately due and payable.
In addition to MidCap’s other rights and available remedies, but subject to applicable cure periods, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an event of default, MidCap may, and at the direction of a requisite percentage of the lenders must, terminate the MidCap Credit Agreement.
Additionally,
in connection with the MidCap Credit Agreement,
the Company agreed to pay customary fees including an origination fee and monthly administration fees.
Pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Warrant, the Warrantholder can purchase 373,626 shares of the
Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.82 for a period ending on
September 30, 2031. Pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement,
the Company shall register the shares underlying the Warrant, with an initial filing due on the
