7. Debt Financing

On February 20, 2020, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement pursuant to which the lender made term loans to the Company in an aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million. Borrowings under the Loan Agreement were collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, excluding intellectual property.

Interest on the outstanding loan balance accrued at a variable annual rate equal to the greater of (i) the lender’s prime rate plus 0.25% and (ii) 5.00%, and the Company was required to make interest-only payments on the loans on a monthly basis through August 2021. The outstanding borrowings were repaid in October 2020.

As part of the Loan Agreement, a success fee of $0.5 million was required in the event of a liquidation event, including an IPO. The success fee represented an embedded derivative which the Company bifurcated from the debt arrangement and carried at fair value. In September 2020, the Company completed its IPO and paid the success fee of $0.5 million.
