8. Oxford Finance Loan Agreement

On February 12, 2020, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Oxford Finance LLC (the “Lender”). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, a term loan of up to an aggregate principal amount of $60.0 million is available to the Company. A first tranche term loan for $20.0 million was funded on February 12, 2020, and a second tranche term loan for $20.0 million was funded on December 23, 2020. The remaining $20.0 million is still available under the Loan Agreement, at the sole discretion of the Lender.

The term loan initially bore interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (i) 7.75% and (ii) the sum of 5.98% and the greater of (A) one-month LIBOR or (B) 1.77%. The Loan Agreement initially provided for interest-only payments until March 1, 2023, and repayment of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the term loan in monthly installments starting on March 1, 2023 and continuing through February 1, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”). Pursuant to the terms of an amendment to the Loan Agreement dated July 3, 2022 (the “Loan Agreement Amendment”), effective September 16, 2022, Oxford agreed to extend the interest-only period from March 1, 2023 to March 1, 2024 and to extend the Maturity Date from February 1, 2025 to February 1, 2026, and upon the achievement of certain milestones and subject to the payment of certain fees, further extend the interest only period to September 1, 2024 and the Maturity Date to August 1, 2026. Pursuant to the terms of a subsequent amendment to the Loan Agreement dated November 15, 2022, the floating annual rate for each term loan was amended to equal the greater of (i) 7.75% and (ii) the sum of (a) the 1-month CME Term SOFR reference rate, (b) 0.10%, and (c) 5.98%.

The Company paid a facility fee of $0.1 million upon the funding of the first tranche, paid a facility fee of $75,000 upon funding of the second tranche and must pay a $50,000 facility fee if and when the third loan tranche is funded. The Company also paid fees of $300,000 related to the Loan Agreement Amendment. The Company will be required to make a final payment fee of 5.00% of the amount of the term loan drawn payable on the earlier of (i) the prepayment of the term loan or (ii) the Maturity Date. At the Company’s option, the Company may elect to prepay the loans subject to a prepayment fee equal to the following percentage of the principal amount being prepaid: 2% if an advance is prepaid during the first 12 months following the applicable advance date, 1% if an advance is prepaid after 12 months but prior to 24 months following the applicable advance date, and 0.5% if an advance is prepaid any time after 24 months following the applicable advance date but prior to the Maturity Date.

In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company granted the Lender a security interest in all of the Company’s personal property now owned or hereafter acquired, excluding intellectual property (but including the right to payments and proceeds of intellectual property), and a negative pledge on intellectual property. The Loan Agreement also contains certain events of default, representations, warranties and non-financial covenants of the Company.

In connection with the funding of the first tranche in February 2020, the Company issued the Lender warrants to purchase 2,754 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price per share of $72.60. In connection with the funding of the second tranche in December 2020, the Company issued the Lender warrants to purchase 1,738 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $115.00 per share (collectively, the “Oxford Warrants”). The Oxford Warrants are exercisable within five years from their respective dates of issuance.

The Oxford Warrants are classified as a component of permanent equity because they are freestanding financial instruments that are legally detachable and separately exercisable from the shares of common stock with which they were issued, are immediately exercisable, do not embody an obligation for the Company to repurchase its shares, and permit the holders to receive a fixed number of shares of common stock upon exercise. In addition, the Oxford Warrants do not provide any guarantee of value or return.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, interest expense related to the Loan Agreement was approximately $1.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively. For three and six months ended June 30, 2022, interest expense related to the Loan Agreement was approximately $1.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
