Loan and Security Agreement | Note 8. Loan and Security Agreement Blackstone Alternative Credit Advisors LP and Blackstone Life Sciences Advisors L.L.C. For the purposes of this Note 8, capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Blackstone Loan Agreement (as defined below). On May 8, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Blackstone Loan Agreement”) with Blackstone Alternative Credit Advisors LP and Blackstone Life Sciences Advisors L.L.C. (collectively, the “Blackstone Representative” and referred to herein as “Blackstone”), certain subsidiaries of the Company party thereto as guarantors, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”). The Blackstone Loan Agreement provides for loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $570.0 million, consisting of (i) a first lien senior secured term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $120.0 million funded to the Company on the Closing Date, (ii) a $180.0 million senior secured term loan available to the Company at its option, of which $90.0 million is available until May 31, 2026, and the remaining $90.0 million is available until May 31, 2027 (the “Term Loans”), and (iii) a super senior revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $70.0 million available at the Company’s option (the “Revolver” and, together with the Term Loans, the “Loans”). The Blackstone Loan Agreement also permits the Company, subject to the consent of the Lenders, to request incremental term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200.0 million at any time and on the same terms as the initial Term Loans, except that any call protection will be determined at the time the incremental term loans are incurred. The proceeds of the Term Loans were used, together with cash on hand, to repay in full the Company’s obligations under the Hercules Loan Agreement (as defined below). The improved financial terms and anticipated use of the Loans are expected to result in a significant reduction in interest expense. As of June 30, 2025, there were $120.0 million and $70.0 million of outstanding principal amounts under the Term Loans and Revolver facilities, respectively. The outstanding balance under the Revolver was classified as short-term based on the Company’s intent and ability to repay this amount in the next twelve months, and included in short-term borrowings on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In July 2025, the Company repaid the entire outstanding balance as of June 30, 2025 under the Revolver. The Term Loans bear interest at a rate equal to the Term (“Secured Overnight Financing Rate”) plus a margin of 4.75%. The effective interest rate on the Term Loans was 9.58% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The Revolver bears interest at plus a margin of 4.00%. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, all amounts outstanding under the Blackstone Loan Agreement will bear an additional 2.00% interest. The weighted-average interest rate on the Revolver was 8.30% as of June 30, 2025. The Loans mature and the principal amount (including any interest and fees) must be repaid on the date that is five years from the Closing Date. Fees and costs that were directly attributable to the Revolver have been capitalized as deferred assets and will be ratably expensed over the life of the Revolver. Deferred assets are included in non-current inventory and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2025, the remaining unamortized balance of deferred assets was $1.1 million. The Loans are subject to mandatory prepayment provisions that may require prepayment upon a change of control, the incurrence of certain additional indebtedness, certain asset sales, or an event of loss, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Blackstone Loan Agreement. The Company may prepay the Loans in whole at its option at any time, subject to certain yield protection premiums. The obligations under the Blackstone Loan Agreement are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries party thereto as guarantors and are secured by a first lien security interest in certain assets of the Company and the guarantors. The Blackstone Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default applicable to the Company and the guarantors. The Blackstone Loan Agreement also contains a minimum liquidity covenant of $30.0 million, tested quarterly. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Lenders may declare all amounts outstanding under the Blackstone Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable. Concurrent with the closing of the Blackstone Loan Agreement, Blackstone purchased $15.0 million of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $107.14 per share in a private placement transaction. The purchase agreement for the private placement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants, and includes a lock-up period that generally prohibits, without the prior written consent of the Company, the sale, transfer, pledge, or other disposition of the securities through the period ending 120 days from the Closing Date. In connection with the Blackstone Loan Agreement, Antecip consented to the collateral assignment of one of the license agreements, among other things, under a direct agreement among the Company, Antecip, a related party, and Blackstone. Hercules Capital, Inc. In September 2020, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement for a term loan with Hercules Capital, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Hercules”), in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent and as a lender, and the other financial institutions that from time to time act as lenders (the “Hercules Loan Agreement”, as amended). On May 8, 2025, the Company repaid in full its obligations under the Hercules Loan Agreement using proceeds from the Blackstone Loan Agreement. Upon repayment, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of approximately $10.4 million in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30, 2025, there are no outstanding obligations under the Hercules Loan Agreement.
