On July 2, 2019, LogicBio Therapeutics, Inc.

Any prepayment of the Term Loan in full, whether mandatory or voluntary, must include an amount equal to the sum of (i) all outstanding principal of the Term Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the prepayment date, (ii) the Final Fee, (iii) the Lenders’ expenses and all other obligations that are due and payable to the Lenders, plus (iv) a prepayment fee of (1) 3% of the principal amount of the Term Loans prepaid if payment is made on or before July 2, 2020, (2) 2% of the principal amount of the Term Loans prepaid if payment is made after July 2, 2020, but on or before July 2, 2021; and (3) 1% of the principal amount of the Term Loans prepaid if payment is made after July 2, 2021 and before June 1, 2024 (the “Prepayment Fee”).

The Company is required to make monthly interest-only payments on the first calendar day of each month beginning on August 1, 2019. Beginning on July 1, 2021, the Company is require to make consecutive equal monthly payments of principal, together with applicable interest, in arrears, based upon a repayment schedule equal to 36 months, with a final maturity date of June 1, 2024.

The Loan Agreement contains representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries and events of default, in each case subject to grace periods, thresholds and materiality qualifiers, as more fully described in the Loan Agreement. The affirmative covenants include, among others, covenants requiring the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain their legal existence and material governmental approvals, deliver certain financial reports, maintain insurance coverage and maintain certain cash balances in controlled accounts. The negative covenants include, among others, restrictions on dispositions, changes in business, management, ownership or business locations, mergers or acquisitions, indebtedness, encumbrances, maintenance of collateral accounts, distributions, investments, transactions with affiliates and subordinated debt.

If an event of default occurs, the Lenders are entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Loan Agreement, termination of the commitments under the Loan Agreement and certain other actions available to secured creditors.

On July 2, 2019, in connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company granted warrants to the Lenders to purchase fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock (the “Warrants”), which are exercisable for an aggregate of 31,372 shares of the Company’s common stock with a per share exercise price of $12.75.
