Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On April 30, 2021, Avid Bioservices, Inc. (the “Company”) and Avid SPV, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into the Company effective April 30, 2021, with the Company as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).
In connection with the Merger, on April 30, 2021, the Company entered into a first supplemental indenture (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) to an indenture, dated March 12, 2021 (as amended or supplemented, the “Indenture”) between the Company, Merger Sub and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, pursuant to which the Company agreed to assume all obligations under the Indenture, along with the related notes issued thereunder (the “Notes”). Immediately prior, the Company was the sole guarantor under the Indenture. Upon the Merger and entering into the First Supplemental Indenture, the Company was discharged from its obligations under the guarantee set forth in the Indenture.
The Notes had an aggregate principal amount of $143.8 million outstanding at April 30, 2021.
