National Institute of Health Grant

In February 2015, the National Institute of Health awarded Denver Health and the Company a five-year, $5.0 million grant to develop a fast and reliable identification and categorical susceptibility test for carbepenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae directly from whole blood. The cumulative amount awarded to date under these subawards is $1.3 million. The amount invoiced for each of the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $0.1 million and $38,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Arizona Commerce Authority

In August 2012, the Company entered into a Grant Agreement (the “Grant Agreement”) with the Arizona Commerce Authority, an agency of the State of Arizona (the “Authority”), pursuant to which the Authority provided certain state and county sponsored incentives for the Company relocating its corporate headquarters to, and expanding its business within, the State of Arizona. Pursuant to the Grant Agreement, the Authority provided a total grant in the amount of $1.0 million, which was recognized in January 2018 as an offset to expense after the achievement of all grant requirements.
