Greenbrook TMS Inc. (TSX: GTMS, NASDAQ: GBNH)
(“Greenbrook” or the “Company”), announces today that
it has received an aggregate of US$3.0 million in additional debt
financing from its existing lender, Madryn Asset Management, LP
(“Madryn”), alongside Greybrook Health Inc. (“Greybrook
Health”), one of the Company’s existing significant
shareholders to manage the company’s current liquidity
requirements. The Company is also currently considering additional
near-term financing options to address its future liquidity
needs.
Madryn Debt Financing
The Company announces that it has entered into an amendment to
its previously-announced credit facility with Madryn (the
“Credit Facility”), whereby Madryn and its affiliated
entities have extended an additional tranche of debt financing to
the Company in an aggregate principal amount of US$2.0 million,
which was fully-funded at closing (the “New Loan”). The
terms and conditions of the New Loan are consistent with the terms
and conditions of the Company’s existing aggregate US$57.0 million
loan under the Credit Facility (the “Existing Loan”) in all
material respects. In addition, the Credit Facility was amended to
provide that, commencing March 31, 2023, all advances under the
Credit Facility (including the New Loan) will cease to accrue
interest using the London Interbank Offered Rate benchmark and
instead will accrue interest using the 3-month Term Secured
Overnight Financing Rate benchmark plus 0.10%. In connection with
the New Loan, Madryn was also granted the right to appoint one
observer to the board of directors of the Company.
The New Loan also provides Madryn with the option to convert up
to approximately US$182,000 of the outstanding principal amount of
the New Loan into common shares of the Company at a conversion
price per share equal to US$1.90 (the “Conversion Price”),
subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments and approval of the
Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”). This conversion feature
corresponds to the conversion provisions for its Existing Loan,
which provide Madryn with the option to convert up to approximately
US$5.2 million of the outstanding principal amount of the Existing
Loan into common shares of the Company at the Conversion Price.
Shareholder Loan
The Company also announces that, alongside the New Loan, it has
issued and sold an additional US$1.0 million aggregate principal
amount of an unsecured note (the “Note”) to Greybrook Health
(the “Greybrook Note Purchase”) under the
previously-announced note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase
Agreement”) with certain significant shareholders and
management of the Company (the “Noteholders”) for gross
proceeds to the Company of US$1.0 million. The Note bears interest
at a rate consistent with the Credit Facility and matures on
September 30, 2027.
In conjunction with the Greybrook Note Purchase, the Company has
agreed to grant Greybrook Health an option to convert up to
approximately US$1.0 million of the outstanding principal amount of
the Note held by Greybrook Health into common shares of the Company
at a conversion price per share equal to 85.0% of the
volume-weighted average trading price of the common shares on the
TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of
conversion (the “Conversion Price”), subject to customary
anti-dilution adjustments and approval of the TSX.
As additional consideration for the Greybrook Note Purchase,
Greenbrook has agreed to issue 135,870 common share purchase
warrants to Greybrook Health (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant
will be exercisable for one common share of Greenbrook at an
exercise price of US$1.84, subject to customary anti-dilution
adjustments and approval of the TSX. The Warrants will expire five
years from the date of issuance.
The proceeds of the New Loan and the Note are expected to be
used by the Company for general corporate and working capital
purposes.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of any
of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer,
solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The Notes have not been and
will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or any state securities
laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to,
or for account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in
Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) except pursuant to an
available exemption under the U.S. Securities Act and compliance
with, or exemption from, applicable U.S. state securities laws.
