5. DoD expense reimbursement contract

In July 2020, the Company entered into an Other Transaction Authority for Prototype Agreement (the OTA Agreement) with the DoD to fund the Company’s efforts in developing an antibody cocktail therapeutic to treat COVID-19. The amount of funding being made available to the Company under this expense reimbursement contract was $13.3 million. In May 2021, the Company and the DoD amended the OTA Agreement, pursuant to which the DoD award was increased from $13.3 million to $17.6 million. Under the agreement, the DoD shall pay the Company, upon submission of proper invoices, within 30 calendar days of receipt of request for payment.

The Company recorded contra-research and development expense of $15.2 million and $1.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, in the statements of operations. The Company had an expense reimbursement receivable balance of $2.7 million and $0.9 million due from the DoD in prepaid expenses and other current assets for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, on the balance sheet.

Costs that have been reimbursed by the DoD but not yet expensed by the Company are recorded as a deferred research obligation liability for the period. The Company has a deferred research obligation liability of $2.0 million and $0 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. This amount is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet. DoD reimbursable services that have been performed but not yet billed are recorded as an unbilled receivable in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheet. The Company had an unbilled receivable from the DoD of $1.6 million and $0 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company has the potential for $0.2 million of expense reimbursement under the OTA Agreement.
