Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement


On March 7, 2023, Baker Bros. Advisors, LP (the “Designated Agent”) provided a Notice of Event of Default and Reservation of Rights (the “Notice of Default”) relating to the Securities Purchase and Security Agreement dated April 23, 2020, and subsequently amended (“SPA”), by and amount the Company, Designated Agent, the Guarantors and the purchasers (each a “Purchaser” and collectively “Purchasers”). The Notice of Default claims that the Company has failed to maintain the “Required Reserve Amount” as required by Section 2.7 of the Third Amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement and Section 8.1(e) of the SPA The Designated Agent claims such failure constitutes an immediate Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(e) of the SPA.

The Designated Agent, at the director of the Purchasers, has accelerated repayment of the outstanding balance payable and elected its remedies pursuant to Section 5.07(b) of the Securities Purchase Agreement. As a result, approximately $92.8 million representing two times the sum of the outstanding balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts due under the SPA and other documents is due and payable within three business days of receipt of the Notice of Default.

The Company disagrees with the Designated Agent’s claims. The Company has invited the Designated Agent to reconsider and rescinded its Notice of Default and request for payment. The Company will explore all available options in resolving this matter.
