Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership

Chapter 11 Filing

On July 5, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), Endologix, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, the “Company,” or the “Debtors”) each filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”).

The Debtors filed motions with the Bankruptcy Court seeking authorization to continue to operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under the caption “In re: TriVascular Sales LLC, et. al., Case No. 20-31840-sgj11.”

The Debtors will continue to operate their business and manage their property as debtors-in-possession pursuant to sections 1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. On July 6, 2020, the Company also filed the Debtors’ Joint Plan of Reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code [Docket No. 19](the “Plan”) which sets forth a proposed restructuring transaction aimed to address the Company’s outstanding debt structure through a significant de-leveraging and to position the Company for long-term growth. To ensure their ability to continue operating in the ordinary course of business, the Debtors have filed with the Court motions seeking a variety of “first-day” relief (collectively, the “First Day Motions”), including to: (a) authorize the Debtors to continue using their existing cash management system, (b) authorize the Debtors to pay prepetition wages, compensation and employee benefits, (c) establish procedures with respect to the transfer of equity interests, and (d) authorize the Debtors to pay prepetition amounts owed to certain vendors, suppliers and contract counterparties in the ordinary course of business as the debts come due.

Restructuring Support Agreement

On July 5, 2020, the Debtors entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Restructuring Support Agreement”) with the lenders under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of August 9, 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), with the Lenders party thereto from time to time, and Deerfield ELGX Revolver, LLC, as agent for itself (the “ABL Agent”) (collectively, the “ABL Creditors”) and Amended and Restated Facility Agreement, dated as of August 9, 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Existing Facility Agreement”), with the Lenders party thereto from time to time, and Deerfield Private Design Fund I.V., L.P. as agent for itself (together with the ABL Agent, “Deerfield”) (collectively with the ABL Creditors, the “Supporting Creditors”). Among other things, the Restructuring Support Agreement provides that the Supporting Creditors will support the Debtors’ restructuring efforts as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Restructuring Support Agreement. The Restructuring Support Agreement also provides that the Supporting Creditors will consent to the Debtors’ use of cash collateral pursuant to the proposed form of order governing the Debtors’ use of cash collateral, under which the Supporting Creditors will receive administrative and priority status for adequate protection claims equal in amount to the aggregate diminution in the value of the Supporting Creditors’ prepetition security interests in the Debtors’ collateral. In exchange, the Debtors have agreed to seek approval of the Plan and complete their restructuring efforts subject to the terms, conditions, and milestones contained in the Restructuring Support Agreement and otherwise comply with the terms and requirements set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement. The Restructuring Support Agreement is subject to a number of conditions, including, among others, material compliance with the obligations set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement.

DIP Credit Agreement

In connection with the Chapter 11 Case, on July 5, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an interim order (the “Interim Order”) approving the Company’s debtor-in-possession financing (“DIP Financing”) pursuant to terms set forth in a secured priming, delayed draw term loan debtor-in-possession credit agreement, dated as of July 8, 2020 (the “DIP Credit Agreement”).

by and among the Company, as borrower, each lender from time to time party to the DIP Credit Agreement, including, but not limited to Deerfield, Deerfield Private Design Fund III, L.P., and Deerfield Partners, L.P. (collectively, the “DIP Lenders”) and Deerfield., as agent (the “DIP Agent”) for itself and the DIP Lenders. The DIP Lenders comprise 100% of the lenders under the Existing Facility Agreement.

The DIP Credit Agreement, subject to the conditions therein, provides for senior secured term loans in the aggregate principal amount of up to $130,800,000 in post-petition financing, consisting of: (i) an initial term loan of $10 million advanced on the closing date, (ii) a delayed draw term loan commitment of $20.8 million, the draw of which is subject to certain conditions, including the occurrence of entry of a final order and occurrence of September 1, 2020 and (iii) a roll-up loan refinancing, in part, term loans under the Existing Facility Agreement, which roll-up loan will be in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000 and advanced upon entry of a final order (collectively, the “DIP Loans”). The Company is also required to pay the DIP Lenders a closing fee equal to 2.0% of the aggregate committed loan amount, less the amount of the roll-up loan.

The proceeds of the DIP Loans will be used for: (i) the payment of the allowed administrative costs and expenses of the Chapter 11 Case (including the carve-out), (ii) the payment of certain payments pursuant to first day orders, (iii) the payment of adequate protection payments as set forth in financing orders, (iv) current interest and fees due to the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement, (v) working capital purposes and, (vi) upon entry of a final order, as a deemed repayment and refinancing of a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the Existing Facility Agreement in an aggregate amount equal to $100,000,000, in each case, consistent with the budget (as in effect from time to time and subject to the permitted variance) and financing orders.

The maturity date of the DIP Credit Agreement is the earliest of: (i) October 5, 2020; (ii) the date of acceleration of the DIP Loans and termination of the commitments under the DIP Credit Agreement following an event of default thereunder; (iii) the effective date of a plan of reorganization or liquidation confirmed in any of the Chapter 11 Case, (iv) the consummation of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Debtors pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, other than in connection with a confirmed plan of reorganization or liquidation in the Chapter 11 Cases or as otherwise approved by the Agent in its reasonable discretion (v) the date of termination of the Restructuring Support Agreement, (vi) without the Agent’s prior written consent, the date of filing or express written support by any Debtor of a plan of liquidation or reorganization and related disclosure statement, or order of dismissal and (vii) the date that is 60 days after the Petition Date (or such later date as agreed to by the Lenders), unless a final order has been entered by the Bankruptcy Court on or prior to such date.

The outstanding principal amount of the DIP Loans will bear interest from the date of each loan’s disbursement at per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus twelve percent (10%). Upon an event of default, all obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to then current interest rate applicable thereto plus two percent (2.0%) per annum.

[All obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement and related transaction documents will: (i) constitute an allowed superpriority administrative expense claim against the Debtors with priority in the Chapter 11 Cases over any and all administrative expense claims and unsecured claims against the Debtors and their estates, now existing or hereafter arising, of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, administrative expenses of the kinds specified in, arising under, or ordered pursuant to sections 105, 326, 328, 330, 331, 503(b), 506, 507(a), 507(b), 546(c), 546(d), 726(b), 1113 or 1114 respectively, of the Bankruptcy Code, subject in each case only to certain professional fees, amounts expended under the budget, and certain prior liens, and (ii) be secured by liens on all property of the Debtors (except for certain excluded liens and subject to certain professional fees) in accordance with the priorities set out in the applicable Bankruptcy Court order.][NOT REVIEWED]

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On July 7, 2020, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying it that, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases and in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5101, 5110(b) and IM-5101-1, Nasdaq has determined that the Company’s common stock will be delisted from Nasdaq. Accordingly, unless the Company requests an appeal of this determination, trading of the common stock will be suspended at the opening of business on July 16, 2020 and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which will remove the common stock from listing and registration on Nasdaq. The Company does not intend to appeal Nasdaq’s determination and, therefore, it is expected that the common stock will be delisted. It is expected that the Company’s common stock will be quoted on the OTC under the symbol “ELGXQ” following its delisting from Nasdaq.
