Mr. Raab was appointed as a director pursuant to that certain Investor Rights Agreement (the “Masters IRA”), dated August 9, 2020, by and between the Company and Masters Special Situations, LLC (“Masters”).

Mr. Schumm has also served as the President of Ascensia Diabetes Care US, Inc. since January 2016. Prior to joining Ascensia, Mr. Schumm held roles of increasing responsibility at Bayer Healthcare LLC from 1996 to January 2016, most recently serving as the Vice President, Global Marketing from 2013 to January 2016. Mr. Schumm holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Princeton University and an M.B.A. in Marketing and International Business from New York University’s Stern School of Business.

 

As more fully described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 10, 2020, on August 9, 2020, the Company entered into a Collaboration and Commercialization Agreement with Ascensia Diabetes Care Holding AG (“Ascensia”), an affiliate of Ascensia Diabetes Care AG, pursuant to which the Company has granted Ascensia the right to distribute Eversense, Eversense XL and the new Eversense 180-day product in the global market for an initial term of five years, subject to exceptions as set forth in the agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, Ascensia will receive a portion of net revenue at specified tiered percentages ranging from the mid-teens to the mid-forties based on levels of global net revenues. Ascensia is obligated to achieve specified minimum annual revenue targets and meet specified levels of sales and marketing spend. Ascensia will purchase Eversense, Eversense XL and the new Eversense 180-day product from the Company at prices to be negotiated based on parameters set forth in the agreement. Under the agreement, the Company will be responsible for product development and manufacturing, including regulatory submissions, approvals and registrations, and Ascensia will be responsible for sales, marketing, market access, patient and provider onboarding and customer support.

 

In addition, on August 9, 2020, the Company entered into a financing agreement pursuant to which the Company issued $35.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Convertible Notes due in October 2024 (the “2024 Notes”), to Ascensia’s parent company, PHC Holdings Corporation (“PHC”). The Company also issued 2,941,176 shares of common stock to PHC as a financing fee, which had a value of $1.4 million based on the closing price on August 9, 2020. The Company also has the option to sell and issue PHC up to $15.0 million of convertible preferred stock on or before December 31, 2022, contingent upon receipt of any stockholder approval required by the listing rules of the NYSE American and obtaining approval for the 180-day Eversense product for marketing in the United States before such date.
