Note Payable
 
As part of the license arrangements with Spectrum (see Note 2), the Company issued to Spectrum a $1.5 million 0.5% secured promissory note originally due March 17, 2016 which was subsequently amended and extended to March 17, 2018. All other terms remain the same. The promissory note was recorded initially at its fair value, giving rise to a discount of approximately $136,000; the promissory note is presented as note payable, net of discount in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $5,607 and $21,015 of non-cash interest expense, respectively, related to the amortization of the debt discount, using the effective interest rate method.
