Loan Payable

On September 21, 2022, we entered into the Loan Agreement that provides for a five-year senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $65.0 million, available to us in four tranches. Upon entering into the Loan Agreement in September 2022, we borrowed $30.0 million in term loans (the “Term A Loan”). Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, we may borrow up to an additional $35.0 million in term loans subject to us achieving the following milestones:

a.Through December 20, 2022, $10.0 million (the “Term B Loan”) if we provide satisfactory evidence that the FDA has approved the New Drug Application (“NDA”) for poziotinib for non-small cell lung cancer in previously treated patients with HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations with a label materially consistent with our filing of such NDA;

b.Through May 15, 2023, $15.0 million (the “Term C Loan”) if we provide satisfactory evidence that we have achieved a minimum of $15.7 million in Net Product Revenue (as defined in the Loan Agreement) calculated on a trailing six (6) month basis for any measuring period ending on or prior to March 31, 2023; and

c.Through November 15, 2023, $10.0 million (the “Term D Loan”) if we provide satisfactory evidence that we have achieved a minimum of $40.0 million in Net Product Revenue calculated on a trailing six (6) month basis for any measuring period ending on or prior to September 30, 2023.

The Loan Agreement contains customary events of default and representations, warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to (i) maintain certain levels of cash in accounts subject to a control agreement in favor of the Agent of at least $25.0 million at all times commencing from September 21, 2022 and ending on the later of (A) July 31, 2023 and (B) the date Company either (1) receives, on or after September 13, 2022, at least $40.0 million in net cash proceeds from equity raises and/or business development or collaboration agreements or (2) (x) receives, on or after September 13, 2022, at least $30.0 million in net cash proceeds from equity raises and/or business development or collaboration agreements and (y) achieves at least $25.8 million in trailing 6-month net revenue from the sale of any products (on or prior to the period ending July 31, 2023) and (ii) maintain, commencing March 31, 2023, on a monthly basis until the end of 2023, and on a quarterly basis thereafter, either (A) net revenue from the sale of any products of at least $100 million on a trailing 12-month basis, or (B) net revenue from the sale of any products of an amount set forth in the Loan Agreement, on a trailing 6-month basis.

The Term Loans will be guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). Our obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by a pledge of substantially all of our assets and will be secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the Guarantors.

The Term Loans bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the 1-Month CME Term SOFR (subject to a 2.3% floor) plus 5.7%. Interest-only payments are due beginning on November 1, 2022 through September 30, 2025, and the interest-only period may be extended to September 30, 2026 (“Principal Extension”) provided the Company and its subsidiaries have achieved a minimum of $40.0 million in net product revenue on a trailing six-month basis for any measuring period ending on or prior to September 30, 2023. We are also required to make monthly principal payments beginning on October 1, 2025 in an amount equal to 1/24th of the aggregate amount of the Term Loans outstanding if the Principal Extension is not executed, or, beginning on October 1, 2026, 1/12th of the aggregate amount of the Term Loans outstanding if the Principal Extension is executed. On the Maturity Date, we are required to pay in full all outstanding Term Loans and other amounts owed under the Loan Agreement.

At the time of borrowing any tranche of the Term Loans, we are required to pay an upfront fee of 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount borrowed at that time. We may prepay all of the Term Loans, and are required to make mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans upon the occurrence of a bankruptcy or insolvency event (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law). All mandatory and voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans are subject to prepayment premiums equal to (i) 3% of the principal prepaid if prepayment occurs on or before September 21, 2023, (ii) 2% of the principal prepaid if prepayment occurs after September 21, 2023 but on or before September 21, 2024, or (iii) 1% of the principal prepaid if prepayment occurs after September 21, 2024.

We will pay facility fees and success fees upon borrowing the future tranches as follows:

a.Facility fee of $0.1 million and success fee of 0.75% of the principal of the Term B Loans,

b.Facility fee of $0.2 million and success fee of 0.75% of the principal of the Term C Loans, and

c.Facility fee of $0.1 million and success fee of 0.75% of the principal of the Term D Loans.

In addition, we are required to pay an exit fee in an amount equal to 4.75% of all principal repaid, whether as a mandatory prepayment, voluntary prepayment, or a scheduled repayment. In connection with the Loan Agreement, we granted warrants (“Warrants”) to the Lenders to purchase up to 454,454 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.66 per share, which had a fair market value at time of issuance of $0.2 million. The number of shares and exercise price are subject to anti-dilution adjustments for splits, dividends, capital reorganizations, reclassifications and similar transactions. Upon borrowing the future tranches, we will issue warrants to the Lenders to purchase an aggregate number of shares of common stock equal to 1.0% of the Term Loan amount funded divided by the applicable Exercise Price (as defined below). The Exercise Price is defined as the lesser of (a) the 10-day trailing average of the Company’s closing common stock price ending on the trading day immediately prior to the funding date of the applicable Term Loan and (b) the Company’s closing common stock price on the trading day immediately prior to the funding date of the applicable Term Loan. The Warrants are immediately exercisable, and the exercise period will expire 10 years from the date of issuance. During our evaluation of equity classification for the Warrants, we considered the conditions as prescribed within ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, Contracts in an Entity’s own Equity. The Warrants do not fall under the liability criteria within ASC 480, Distinguishing

Liabilities from Equity as they are not puttable and do not represent an instrument that has a redeemable underlying security. The Warrants do meet the definition of a derivative instrument under ASC 815, but are eligible for the scope exception as they are indexed to our common stock and would be classified in permanent equity if freestanding.

The Loan Agreement contains customary events of default that entitle SLR to accelerate the repayment of the Term Loans, and to exercise remedies against the Borrowers and the collateral securing the Term Loans. Upon the occurrence and for the duration of an event of default, an additional default interest rate of 4.0% will apply to all obligations owed under the Loan Agreement.

In September 2022, we borrowed $30.0 million upon the signing of the Loan Agreement and incurred debt issuance costs of $3.0 million, including the exit fee of $1.4 million, that are classified as contra-liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being recognized as interest expense over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized interest expense related to the Term Loans of approximately $0.1 million, approximately $17 thousand of which was noncash.
