Construction Loan Agreement
During December 2017, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Fifth Third Bank (formerly MB Financial Bank, N.A.) (the “Construction Loan Agreement”), which provides the Company with a non-revolving construction loan (the “Construction Loan”) of $25.6 million. The Company is using the Construction Loan proceeds to finance the construction of an additional clinical laboratory and related facilities in Madison, Wisconsin. The Construction Loan is collateralized by the additional clinical laboratory and related facilities.
Pursuant to the Construction Loan Agreement, funds drawn will bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of the 1-month LIBOR rate plus 2.25 percent. Regular monthly payments are interest-only for the first 24 months, with further payments based on a 20-year amortization schedule. Amounts borrowed pursuant to the Construction Loan Agreement may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The maturity date of the Construction Loan Agreement is December 10, 2022.
In November 2017, Fifth Third Bank, on behalf of the Company, issued an Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit in the amount of $0.6 million in favor of the City of Madison, Wisconsin (the “City Letter of Credit”). The City Letter of Credit is deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Construction Loan Agreement. The amount of the City Letter of Credit will reduce, dollar for dollar, the amount available for borrowing under the Construction Loan Agreement.
As a condition to Fifth Third’s initial advance of loan proceeds under the Construction Loan Agreement, the Company was required to first invest at least $16.4 million of its own cash into the construction project. The Company fulfilled its required initial investment and made its first draw on the Construction Loan in June 2018. Starting in December 2019, the Company began making monthly payments towards the outstanding principal balance plus accrued interest. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance was $24.7 million and $25.0 million, respectively, including $0.7 million of interest incurred, which is accrued for as an interest reserve and represents a portion of the loan balance. The Company capitalized the $0.7 million of interest to the construction project. The Company incurred approximately $0.2 million of debt issuance costs related to the Construction Loan, which are recorded as a direct deduction from the liability. The debt issuance costs are being amortized over the life of the Construction Loan.
The Company has agreed in the Construction Loan Agreement to various financial covenants including minimum liquidity and minimum tangible net worth. As of March 31, 2020, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum tangible net worth financial covenant. Fifth Third Bank waived the default for the period ending March 31, 2020. The loan balance is included in debt, current portion in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2020.
Tax Increment Financing Loan Agreements
The Company entered into two separate Tax Increment Financing Loan Agreements (“TIFs”) in February 2019 and June 2019 with the City of Madison, Wisconsin. The TIFs provide for $4.6 million of financing in the aggregate. In return for the loans, the Company is obligated to create and maintain 500 full-time jobs over a five-year period, starting on the date of occupancy of the buildings constructed. In the event that the job creation goals are not met, the Company would be required to pay a penalty.
The Company records the earned financial incentives as the full-time equivalent positions are filled. The amount earned is recorded as a liability and amortized as a reduction of operating expenses over a two-year period, which is the timeframe when the TIFs will be repaid through property taxes.
By the end of 2019, the Company had earned and received payment of $4.6 million from the City of Madison. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company has recorded a liability of $ $2.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively, in other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, reflecting when the expected benefit of the financial benefits amortization will reduce future operating expenses.
