Note 7 – Notes Payable

On March 4, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a $75.0 million long-term debt facility with Runway Growth Finance Corp. (the “Term Loan”). Under the Term Loan, $30.0 million of the $75.0 million loan was funded on the Closing Date, with the remaining $45.0 million fundable if the Company achieved certain predetermined milestones.

On April 11, 2023, the Term Loan was terminated upon receipt by Runway of a payoff amount of $30.7 million from the Company comprised of principal, interest and the applicable final payment amount.

The Term Loan accrued interest at a variable annual rate equal to 8.75% plus the greater of (i) 0.50% and (ii) the three month LIBOR Rate for U.S. dollar deposits or the rate otherwise reasonably determined by the Lender to be the rate at which U.S. dollar deposits with a term of three months would be offered by banks in London, England to major banks in the London or other offshore interbank market  (the “Applicable Rate”); provided that the Applicable Rate will not be less than 9.25%. On December 7, 2022, the Company entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Loan Agreement by and between the Company and Runway. The First Amendment amended certain definitions and other provisions of the Loan Agreement to replace LIBOR-based benchmark rates applicable to loans outstanding under the Loan Agreement with SOFR-based rates, subject to adjustments as specified in the First Amendment. The Applicable Rate at March 31, 2023 and 2022 was 13.77% and 9.36%, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company made interest payments of $1.0 million and $0.1 million respectively, recorded in interest expense in the Unaudited Statements of Operations.
