| Debt | 10. Debt Note Purchase Agreement On January 13, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with RGCM SA LLC, as Purchaser Agent, Oberland Capital Management LLC (“Oberland”) and certain funds managed by Oberland Capital Management LLC, as purchasers (together with other purchasers party thereto from time to time, the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company may sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers may buy from the Company, notes (the “Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $150.0 million. On the Closing Date, the Company issued and sold an initial Note in an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million. In addition, the Company may issue and sell additional Notes with aggregate principal amount of up to $50.0 million, exclusive of an option to issue an additional $25.0 million that expired as follows:
The outstanding principal amount of the Notes bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the greater of the Term (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) and 4.29%, and (ii) 3.71%, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement and an overall cap of 9.75%, payable quarterly in arrears until the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date or the date on which all amounts owing to the Purchasers under the Note Purchase Agreement have been paid in full (the “Maturity Date”). For the first eight (8) quarters following the Closing Date, at the Company’s option, up to 50% of the interest due may be paid-in-kind and added to the then-outstanding principal balance of the Notes. Through June 30, 2026, the Company has not elected to defer any interest through its paid-in-kind option. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) under the Note Purchase Agreement, the then-applicable interest rate on all outstanding obligations may be increased by an additional 5.00%. Beginning on January 13, 2025 and continuing until the Maturity Date, the Purchasers will receive 1.00% (the “Revenue Participation Percentage”) of the first $100.0 million of net sales of each Included Product (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) by the Company or its affiliates or licensees in each calendar year, payable quarterly. “Included Products” is defined in the Note Purchase Agreement to include (a) avutometinib and defactinib, including any product that contains either one of the foregoing in combination with any other active ingredient(s), and (b) all other compounds, chemical entities or pharmaceutical products being designed, developed, licensed, manufactured or commercialized by the Company or its subsidiaries from time to time. The Revenue Participation Percentage will increase pro rata immediately upon the occurrence of the Second Purchase and the Third Sale, such that the Revenue Participation Percentage shall increase to a maximum of 2.00% in the event that $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes has been purchased pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement following the Third Sale. The outstanding principal amount of the Notes, interest accrued thereon and any other amounts owing to the Purchasers under the Note Purchase Agreement will be due in two equal instalments on (a) the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date, and (b) the Maturity Date. All of the Notes may be redeemed prior to the Maturity Date at the option of the Company, subject to payment of the Repayment Amount (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement). The Purchasers may demand redemption of the Notes prior to the Maturity Date in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) of the Company or an Event of Default (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) under the Note Purchase Agreement, subject to payment of the Repayment Amount. The Repayment Amount is due at the earlier of the Maturity Date and when payment of all obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement are otherwise due. The Repayment Amount is (a) 135% of the principal amount of the Notes if redemption occurs before the second anniversary of the Closing Date upon a Change of Control; (b) if the preceding clause (a) does not apply, 175% of the principal amount of the Notes if redemption occurs prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date; and (c) thereafter, 195% of the principal amount of the Notes if redemption occurs after the third anniversary of the Closing Date, minus, in each case, the sum of regularly scheduled interest paid in cash, payments of principal in cash, and payments of revenue participation in cash prior to such redemption date. The Note Purchase Agreement contains no financial covenants. The Company’s obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement are subject to customary covenants, including limitations on the Company’s ability to dispose of assets, undergo a change of control, merge with or acquire other entities, incur debt, incur liens, pay dividends or other distributions to holders of its capital stock, repurchase stock and make investments, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The Company’s obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement are secured by a security interest on substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets, including its intellectual property related to avutometinib and defactinib, and a negative pledge on intellectual property related to the Company’s collaboration and option agreement with GenFleet (the “GenFleet Agreement”), subject to certain exceptions relating to the Company’s development of its intellectual property. A portion of the proceeds of the Note Purchase Agreement were used to repay the Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement (as defined below) in full. The Loan Agreement was terminated concurrently with entry into the Note Purchase Agreement. The Company assessed the terms and features of the Note Purchase Agreement and determined that the Company is eligible to elect the fair value option under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 825, Financial Instruments. The Note Purchase Agreement contains various embedded features and the election of the fair value option allows the Company to bypass analysis of potential embedded derivatives and further analysis of bifurcation of any recognized financial liabilities. Under the fair value option, the financial liability is initially measured at its fair value on the issuance date and subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting date. Changes in the fair value of the Note Purchase Agreement, which include accrued interest, if any, are recorded as a component of change in fair value of Notes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company has not elected to present interest expense separately from changes in fair value and therefore will not separately present interest expense associated with the Note Purchase Agreement. Changes in fair value caused by instrument-specific credit risk are presented separately in other comprehensive income or loss within the condensed statements of equity (deficit). The portion of total changes in fair value of Notes attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk are determined through specific measurement of periodic changes in the discount rate assumption exclusive of base market changes and are presented as a component of comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The change in fair value attributable to instrument specific credit risk recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2026, June 30, 2025 and cumulatively life to date for the debt was a decrease of $2.8 million, $5.3 million and $8 million, . Under the fair value option, debt issuance costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred $0.7 million of debt issuance costs which was recorded within selling, general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Second Purchase and Third Sale were replaced and the related potential increases in the Revenue Participation Percentage were fixed pursuant to an amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement. See Note 21, Subsequent Events for further detail. The following table reconciles the change in fair value of the Notes during the six months ended June 30, 2026 (in thousands):
As of June 30, 2026, future principal payments under the Note Purchase Agreement are due as follows (in thousands):
Loan Agreement On March 25, 2022 (the “Loan Agreement Closing Date”), the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (the “Original Loan Agreement”) with Oxford Finance, LLC (“Oxford”), as collateral agent and a lender, and Oxford Finance Credit Fund III LP, as a lender (“OFCF III” and together with Oxford, the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to lend the Company up to an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million in a series of term loans (the “Term Loans”). On January 4, 2024, the Company amended the Original Loan Agreement (as amended, the “Loan Agreement”) to extend the date by which it may draw down the Term C Loan from March 31, 2024, to March 31, 2025. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Company received an initial Term Loan of $25.0 million on the Loan Agreement Closing Date, and drew down the second term loan of $15.0 million (the “Term B Loan”) on March 22, 2023. The Company was required to make a final payment of 5.0% of the original principal amount of the Term Loans that are drawn, payable at maturity or upon any earlier acceleration or prepayment of the Term Loans (the “Final Payment Fee”). The Company could have prepaid all, but not less than all, of the Term Loans, subject to a prepayment fee equal to (i) 3.0% of the principal amount of the applicable Term Loan if prepaid on or before the first anniversary date of the funding date of such Term Loan, (ii) 2.0% of the principal amount of the applicable Term Loan if prepaid after the first anniversary and on or before the second anniversary of the funding date of such Term Loan, and (iii) 1.0% of the principal amount of the applicable Term Loan if prepaid after the second anniversary of the applicable funding date of such Term Loan. All Term Loans were subject to a facility fee of 0.5% of the principal amount. Substantially concurrently with the closing of the Note Purchase Agreement, on January 13, 2025, the Company terminated its Loan Agreement and repaid in full the balance of its obligations under the Loan Agreement of approximately $42.7 million (the “Payoff Amount”). The Payoff Amount included the Final Payment Fee of $2.0 million, which was due at the earlier of prepayment or loan maturity, and certain prepayment fees as set forth in the Loan Agreement, a prepayment penalty fee of $0.6 million, and unpaid interest of $0.1 million. Upon the Lenders’ receipt of the Payoff Amount, the Loan Agreement was terminated along with the Lenders’ commitment to provide funding under any future term loans. All liens on the Company’s assets to secure the loans under the Loan Agreement have been terminated and released. The Payoff Amount, excluding accrued interest, exceeded the carrying amount of the Term Loan on January 13, 2025 by $1.8 million. As a result, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $1.8 million included in the condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The following table sets forth total interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):
