Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Subordinated Promissory Note with Nant Capital, LLC
On November 21, 2022, NantHealth, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an unsecured
subordinated promissory note (the "Nant Capital Note") with Nant Capital, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("Nant Capital"), whereby Nant Capital loaned
$7,000,000 to the Company. Nant Capital is an entity affiliated with Dr. Patrick
Soon-Shiong, our Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.
The Nant Capital Note contains an interest rate equal to the Term Secured
Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR") plus 8.5% per annum, compounded annually
and a maturity date of October 31, 2026. The Nant Capital Note also contains
semiannual interest payments due on April 15 and October 15 of each year. The
payment of the Nant Capital Note shall be subordinated and subject in right of
payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt (as defined in the Nant
Capital Note).
The description of the related-party Nant Capital Note contained herein is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Nant Capital Note attached hereto
as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by
reference.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
See Item 1.01 above for a discussion of the Nant Capital Note.
In addition, the Company notes that the existing $125,000,000 demand promissory
note with Nant Capital expires on December 31, 2022, and there can be no
assurance that Nant Capital will renew the demand promissory note and that the
Company will be able to find alternative financing sources after that time.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company has received an aggregate of
$11,000,000 in gross proceeds for working capital from Dr. Soon-Shiong and his
affiliates pursuant to the Nant Capital Note and the unsecured subordinated
promissory note with Airstrip Technologies, Inc. (the "Airstrip Note," and
together with the Nant Capital Note, the "Notes"), which was previously
disclosed by the Company on a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on October 6, 2022. The Company believes that the Notes together with
other anticipated sources of capital will enable it to fund the Company's
liquidity needs through the fourth quarter of 2022 and beyond. In addition, the
Company's existing $125,000,000 demand promissory note with Nant Capital expires
on December 31, 2022, and there can be no assurance that Nant Capital will renew
the demand promissory note or that the Company will be able to find alternative
financing on terms that are satisfactory to the Company or at all.
Forward-Looking Statements:
In addition to historical information, this Current Report on Form 8-K contains
or may imply forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal
securities laws, such as any implication regarding the Company's ability to
obtain, or its current anticipated ability to raise, additional capital and its
future business and financial performance. Such forward-looking statements
include projections regarding the Company's beliefs and expectations about
future performance and, in some cases, may be identified by words like
"anticipate," "assume," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect,"
"intend," "may," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "future," "will,"
"seek" and similar terms or phrases. These statements are based on the Company's
beliefs and assumptions, which in turn are based on information available as of
the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Forward-looking statements involve
known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to
differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement and
could harm the Company's business, prospects, results of operations, liquidity
and financial condition and cause its stock price to decline significantly. Many
of these factors are beyond the Company's ability to control or predict.
Important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ
materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among
others: the ability to meet the Company's liquidity needs, changes in the
Company's future capital needs, the Company's ability to continue to generate
sufficient cash, the Company's ability to repay its outstanding indebtedness and
other macroeconomic, political, and regulatory developments, and the events and
risks referenced in the sections titled "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and subsequent
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in other documents filed or furnished with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result of these factors, actual
results may differ materially from those indicated or implied by forward-looking
statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact
of any acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, business development transactions,
joint ventures or investments we may enter into or make in the future. Given
these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made only as of
the date hereof and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise
publicly any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. New factors
emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such
factors.
