Deerfield Reports Stake in Nuo Therapeutics, Inc. (NUOTQ); Enters Into Waiver to DIP Financing Agreement

James Flynn‘s Deerfield Management has reported its position in Nuo Therapeutics Inc (OTCMKTS:NUOTQ) via a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The filing showed that Deerfield owns some 159.92 million shares of Nuo Therapeutics, which represent around 9.99% of the company’s outstanding stock. Moreover, the investor added in the filing:

“On March 9, 2016, the Funds, Deerfield Mgmt, as administrative agent, and the Company entered into a Waiver and First Amendment to the DIP Financing Agreement (the “Waiver and First Amendment”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Funds agreed (i) to waive certain Events of Default (as defined in the DIP Financing Agreement) that occurred under the DIP Financing Agreement and (ii) to adjust the Funds’ total commitment under the DIP Financing Agreement to $6.0 million (including approximately $1.5 million that had been funded to date).

In addition, the Waiver and First Amendment requires that certain actions be taken by the Company, the Bankruptcy Court and other relevant constituencies with respect to a “Chapter 11 Plan” by dates specified in the Waiver and First Amendment. The Waiver and First Amendment defines “Chapter 11 Plan” as a plan of reorganization of the Company consistent with a term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) annexed to the Waiver and First Amendment. The Term Sheet sets forth the material terms of a proposed restructuring of the prepetition and post-petition secured debt, unsecured debt and equity interests of the Company, the terms of which would be effected pursuant to a plan of reorganization to be proposed by the Company in the Company’s bankruptcy case and supported by the Funds and Deerfield Mgmt, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors and the Ad Hoc Committee of Equity Holders. Failure to achieve certain case milestones, including those related to the Chapter 11 Plan, would constitute an Event of Default under the DIP Financing Agreement. The Waiver and First Amendment also modified the definition of “Maturity Date” to mean the earliest of: (a) April 25, 2016, if the Chapter 11 Plan is not confirmed by such date, or May 5, 2016 if the Chapter 11 Plan is confirmed by April 25, 2016, and (b) the date on which the loan is accelerated.”

Flynn, a natural person (“Flynn” and collectively with Deerfield Mgmt, Deerfield Management, Deerfield Special Situations Fund,  Deerfield Private Design II and Deerfield Private Design International II, the “Reporting Persons”), with respect to the securities of Nuo Therapeutics, Inc., as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto, filed on November 18, 2015 by the Reporting Persons, Amendment No. 2 thereto, filed on December 8, 2015, Amendment No. 3 thereto, filed on December 21, 2015, Amendment No. 4 thereto, filed on January 26, 2016 and Amendment No. 5 thereto, filed on February 25, 2016 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”).
Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Scheduled 13D.
Item 4.        Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:
On March 9, 2016, the Funds, Deerfield Mgmt, as administrative agent, and the Company entered into a Waiver and First Amendment to the DIP Financing Agreement (the “Waiver and First Amendment“), pursuant to which, among other things, the Funds agreed (i) to waive certain Events of Default (as defined in the DIP Financing Agreement) that occurred under the DIP Financing Agreement and (ii) to adjust the Funds’ total commitment under the DIP Financing Agreement to $6.0 million (including approximately $1.5 million that had been funded to date).
In addition, the Waiver and First Amendment requires that certain actions be taken by the Company, the Bankruptcy Court  and other relevant constituencies with respect to a “Chapter 11 Plan” by dates specified in the Waiver and First Amendment.  The Waiver and First Amendment defines “Chapter 11 Plan”  as a plan of reorganization of the Company consistent with a term sheet (the “Term Sheet“) annexed to the Waiver and First Amendment.  The Term Sheet sets forth the material terms of a proposed restructuring of the prepetition and post-petition secured debt, unsecured debt and equity interests of the Company, the terms of which would be effected pursuant to a plan of reorganization to be proposed by the Company in the Company’s bankruptcy case and supported by the Funds and Deerfield Mgmt, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors and the Ad Hoc Committee of Equity Holders.  Failure to achieve certain case milestones, including those related to the Chapter 11 Plan, would constitute an Event of Default under the DIP Financing Agreement.  The Waiver and First Amendment also modified the definition of “Maturity Date” to mean the earliest of: (a) April 25, 2016, if the Chapter 11 Plan is not confirmed by such date, or May 5, 2016 if the Chapter 11 Plan is confirmed by April 25, 2016, and (b) the date on which the loan is accelerated.

Page 9 of 11 SEC Filing

The Term Sheet provides for the reorganization of the Company (and the continuation of the Company’s corporate existence whose securities will be publicly traded), and payment, on or after the effective date of the confirmed plan, of all allowed administrative expenses, priority tax claims, unsecured priority claims and payment of general unsecured claims, each as more fully set forth in the Term Sheet.  It further provides for the capitalization of a reorganized Company under two contemplated scenarios:  (i) in the event the Company successfully raises $10,500,000 of committed capital (of which $3,000,000 can be in the form of backstop irrevocable capital call commitments) (“Successful Capital Raise”) by the effective date of the confirmed plan, then (a) the existing common equity shareholders will retain a to be determined percentage of the resulting common equity interests and (b) the Funds would be issued a non-convertible, no dividend preferred security in the amount of approximately $29.3 million which would have a liquidation preference equal to its face amount and receive an assignment of all of Company’s rights, title and interest in the existing Angel product line license agreement with Arthrex, Inc., all associated intellectual property owned by the Company and licensed thereunder and all royalty and payment rights which for purposes of the Chapter 11 Plan is valued at $15,000,000; or (ii) in the event the Company does not have a Successful Capital Raise, then (a) the Funds will receive 95% of the common equity of the Company and receive an assignment of all of Company’s rights, title and interest in the existing Angel product line license agreement with Arthrex, Inc., all associated intellectual property owned by the Company and licensed thereunder and all royalty and payment rights which for purposes of the Chapter 11 Plan is valued at $15,000,000 and (b) existing equity interests will retain 5% of the common equity of the Company.
The Funds have agreed to support the confirmation of a plan of reorganization for the Company that is consistent with the Term Sheet and otherwise acceptable to the Funds and intend to continue to participate in discussions relating to a reorganization of the Company consistent with the Term Sheet. There can be no assurance however that a reorganization of the Company will occur or that any such reorganization will be effected upon the terms set forth in the Term Sheet.
Item 6.        Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:
On March 9, 2016, the Funds, Deerfield Mgmt, as administrative agent, and the Company entered into the Waiver and First Amendment to the DIP Financing Agreement.  The description of the Waiver and First Amendment, including the Term Sheet attached thereto, set forth in Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference.  Such description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Waiver and First Amendment (and the Term Sheet annexed as Exhibit B thereto), which is filed as Exhibit 99.8 hereto.
Item 7.        Material to be Filed as Exhibits
Exhibit 99.8     Waiver and First Amendment (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on March 11, 2016).
