The total premiums, taxes and fees financed was approximately $0.6 million with an annual interest rate of approximately 8.0%. In consideration of the premium payment by the lender to the insurance companies or the agent or broker, the Company unconditionally promised to pay the lender the amount financed plus interest and other charges permitted under the agreement and the Company assigned to the lender a first priority lien on and a security interest in the financed insurance policies. The Company made monthly installment payments on the financed amount through April 20, 2025. The financed amount is recognized as an insurance financing cost included in other current assets and accrued expenses in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
