    Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

    On May 13, 2025 (“Closing Date”), the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (“Loan Agreement”) with Hercules Capital, Inc. (“Hercules”) and the lenders party thereto, pursuant to which the lenders will make available up to four tranches of term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million (the “Term Loan”), subject to certain terms and conditions.

    Amount. The Loan Agreement provides for an aggregate of $100.0 million in term loans, which will be available to the Company in four tranches. The first Term Loan tranche was made on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million. Upon the achievement of certain milestones and subject to other terms and conditions set out in the Loan Agreement, (i) the second Term Loan tranche will be made available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25.0 million and (ii) the third Term Loan tranche will be made available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $15.0 million. The fourth Term Loan tranche will be made available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $45.0 million subject to the approval of the lenders.

    Maturity Date. The Term Loan will mature on June 1, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”).

    Interest Rate. The Term Loan bears interest equal to the greater of (a) the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 2.45% and (b) (i) 9.95% until December 31, 2025, and (ii) 9.45% thereafter.

    Charges and fees. The Loan Agreement provides for an end of term charge equal to 6.25% of the funded loan amount, due at the earlier of prepayment or maturity. Pro-rata payment of any earned end of term charge will be due upon any partial prepayment. In addition, the Loan Agreement requires the Company to pay a facility charge of 1.0% of the Term Loan funded due at the Closing Date and of each subsequent Term Loan tranche at the time such tranche is funded. The Company will be required to pay a prepayment charge to the lenders in connection with certain voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans, which will be determined as a percentage of the Term Loans prepaid that decreases over time.

    Term and Repayment. The Loan Agreement is for 48 months, with interest-only payments for an initial period of up to 24 months from the Closing Date, which may be extended up to 42 months upon achievement of certain milestones and subject to other terms and conditions set out in the Loan Agreement (the “Interest-Only Period”). After the Interest-Only Period, the Company will be required to repay in equal monthly installments the principal and interest until the Maturity Date.

    Representations and Warranties and Covenant. The Loan Agreement includes customary representations and warranties and covenants associated with the Term Loan. Such terms include (1) covenants concerning financial and other reporting obligations, and (2) certain limitations on indebtedness, liens, investments, distributions (including dividends), collateral, investments, distributions, transfers, mergers or acquisitions, taxes, corporate changes, and deposit accounts. The Loan Agreement includes customary events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, breaches of covenants following any applicable cure period and the occurrence of certain events that could reasonably be expected to have a “material adverse effect” as set forth in the Loan Agreement. In addition, the Loan Agreement includes affirmative and restrictive covenants, including maintenance of a minimum cash, cash equivalents and liquid funds covenant that applies beginning on April 1, 2026.

    Collateral. The obligation under the Loan Agreement is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s  assets and the assets of its subsidiaries that are co-borrowers or guarantors. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, Hercules and the lenders will be entitled to exercise remedies, including acceleration of the Term Loan obligations and foreclosure on collateral.

    The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement contained herein do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Loan Agreement to be filed with the SEC in connection with the Company’s first quarter 2025 Form 10-Q filing.
