Convertible Loan Notes

 

In December 2025, the Company invested $5.0 million in unsecured convertible loan notes issued by a privately-held life sciences company. The notes bear interest at 8% per annum, mature in December 2027, and are subordinated to the issuer's senior indebtedness. The notes automatically convert into equity upon a qualified financing of at least $20 million or an initial public offering with gross proceeds of at least $100 million, in each case at a 20% discount to the applicable offering price. At maturity, any outstanding principal and accrued interest automatically convert into preferred shares at a conversion price based on a valuation cap of eight times the issuer's trailing 12-month revenue. The Company invested in the notes alongside a fund associated with Eli Casdin, a member of the Company’s board of directors and the Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Casdin Capital, LLC, a major stockholder of the Company.
