Notes Payable and Bank Debts
Row 44 Bridge Loans
In December 2011 and March 2012, Row 44 entered into convertible bridge loans with existing preferred shareholders for debt raises of $10,000,000 and $10,000,000, respectively. The bridge loans bore interest at the rate of 12% per annum and matured on May 31, 2012. The bridge loans and related interest were convertible into shares at such time as the Company raised additional equity funding through the issuance of a future round of qualified financing, as defined in the agreement, which was ultimately the capital raise in June 2012. The conversion price of the loans was to be determined based on a 20% discount of the issuance price such qualified financing. Row 44 granted the note holders a security interest in substantially all of the assets of Row 44 at the time. Additionally, and in connection with these two rounds of bridge loans, Row 44 also granted warrants to purchase a total of 3.4 million shares of Row 44 common stock at $0.003 per share. The Company determined that the bridge loans constituted share-settled debt, and as such the convertible bridge loans were initially recorded at an amount equal to their residual allocated amount and were accreted to their redemption amount, which is approximately 20% greater than its face amount, through the maturity date using the effective interest method. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company amortized $0.3 million of the note discount to interest expense, resulting in a net carrying amount of the note of $7.3 million at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2011, the Company had accrued but unpaid interest amounting to less than $0.1 million included in the notes payable balance. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recognized interest expense of $9.6 million relating to the accretion of the bridge loans and amortization of the related note discount. The Company converted each of the bridge loans, with an aggregate value of $20.0 million of principal and $0.8 million of related accrued interest, into units of common stock in conjunction with the Business Combination.
During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s effective interest rate on convertible bridge loans was 421% and 126%.
Bank loan
AIA has an unsecured four-year loan of $15.9 million from UniCredit Bank AG, Munich, Germany. The loan is subject to initial repayment of $0.7 million and thereafter regular half-yearly repayments of $2.2 million, no prepayment penalties and variable interest based on the six-month Euribor plus 2.35%. In order to avoid any exposure to the risk from rising interest rates associated with variable interest obligations, a portion of the variable interest payments was converted into fixed interest obligations by means of interest rate swaps over the term of the loan.
Under the terms of the loan agreement, mandatory special loan payments are agreed under certain conditions. The provision regarding mandatory special loan payments resulted in a mandatory special loan payment of $1.4 million on June 30, 2013. As a result, the repayment period and thus the loan will now end six months earlier than originally envisioned. These special loan payments result in a reclassification of the amount of the special loan payments to the current portion of the loan.
As of December 31, 2013, the principal and accrued interest outstanding on the bank loan was $3.4 million.

With the acquisition of PMG in July 2013, the Company assumed approximately $3.3 million of debt in the form a $1.5 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a $1.8 million line of credit (the “LOC”) with a bank.

Interest is paid on a monthly basis. Accrued interest on the credit facilities was $0.0 million at December 31, 2013.
