5. Term Loan

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. Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, the first Term Loan tranche was drawn down 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 was to be made available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25.0 million and (ii) the third Term Loan tranche was to be made available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $15.0 million. The fourth Term Loan tranche was to be made available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $45.0 million subject to the approval of the lenders. The Term Loan had interest rate 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.

On November 5, 2025, (the “Amendment Closing”), the Company entered into an amendment to the Loan Agreement with Hercules and the lenders party thereto, pursuant to which the lenders will, subject to certain terms and conditions, increase the availability under the Term Loan from an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million to $125.0 million. The Term Loan, as amended, is structured in four tranches. As described above, the first Term Loan tranche was drawn down on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million. The second Term Loan tranche was drawn down on the Amendment Closing in an aggregate principal amount of $20.0 million. Upon the achievement of certain milestones and subject to other terms and conditions set out in the Loan Agreement, as amended, the third Term Loan tranche will be made available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million. The fourth Term Loan tranche will be made available in an aggregate principal amount of up to $80.0 million subject to the approval of the lenders. The Term Loan, as amended, bears interest equal to the greater of (a) 9.70% per annum and (b) the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus 2.45% per annum. The interest-only period has been extended to 30 months from May 13, 2025.

The Term Loan will mature on January 1, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company may make payments of interest only through December 1, 2027, which will be extended to June 1, 2028, or December 1, 2028, if certain conditions described in the Loan Agreement, as amended, are met. Thereafter, the Company is obligated to make payments that will include installments of principal and interest through the Maturity Date.

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, transfers, mergers or acquisitions, taxes, corporate changes, and deposit accounts. Compliance with the financial covenant will be conditionally waived pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement when the Company’s market capitalization exceeds $800 million. 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. As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Loan Agreement.

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 will be entitled to exercise remedies, including acceleration of the Term Loan obligations and foreclosure on collateral.

The Loan Agreement, as amended, provides for a prepayment charge equal to 3.0% of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan if prepayment is made within the twelve months after Amendment Closing, 2.0% if within the twenty-four months after Amendment Closing, 1.0% if within the thirty-six months after Amendment Closing and 0.0% thereafter. The Loan Agreement provides for an end of term charge of 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 (the “End of Term Charge”). 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 accounted for the End of Term Charge, Facility Charge, and other direct costs incurred in connection with the Loan Agreement and its amendment as a debt discount and issuance costs, and they are being amortized over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. The weighted-average effective interest rate on the Term Loan is 13.37%.

The Company incurred interest expense on the Term Loan, including debt discount and issuance costs amortization, of $1.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
