On September 17, 2021, or the Closing Date, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, or, the Loan Agreement, with Hercules Capital, Inc., in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent and as a lender, or, in such capacity, the Agent or Hercules, and the other financial institutions that from time to time become parties to the Loan Agreement as lenders, or, collectively, the Lenders. The Loan Agreement provides for term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200.0 million, or the Term Loan, under multiple tranches. The tranches consist of (i) a first tranche consisting of term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million, all of which was funded to the Company on the Closing Date, or First Advance, (ii) a second tranche consisting of up to an additional $50.0 million, which became available to the Company upon achievement of the protocol-specified primary efficacy endpoints in the Company’s Phase 3 trial studying vonoprazan for the healing and maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis with acceptable safety data, such that the results support the submission of a New Drug Application, or NDA, or supplemental NDA without the need to conduct another Phase 3 study and will be available, if specified conditions are met, through December 15, 2022, (iii) a third and fourth tranches consisting of an additional total $50.0 million, which became available to the Company in May 2022 upon the achievement of (a) Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, approval of the Company’s NDA for vonoprazan and amoxicillin, or its New Drug Application for vonoprazan, amoxicillin and clarithromycin, in each case for an indication relating to the treatment of Helicobacter pylori, or H. pylori, with an approved indication on the claim that is generally consistent with that sought in the Company’s NDA submission; and (b) filing of the Company’s NDA or supplemental NDA for vonoprazan for indications relating to the healing and maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis. The Company paid a $1.25 million facility charge in connection with closing of the Loan Agreement and would need to pay 0.5% of any advances made under the third and fourth tranches. T he Term Loan will mature on October 1, 2026, or the Maturity Date. The Term Loan bears (i) cash interest at a variable annual rate equal to the greater of (a) 5.50% and (b) the Prime Rate (as reported in the Wall Street Journal) plus 2.25%, or the “Interest Rate”, and (ii) payment-in-kind interest at a per annum rate of interest equal to 3.35%. Phathom may make payments of interest only through October 1, 2024, which was extended to October 1, 2025, upon the achievement of the Second Performance Milestone in May 2022 prior to September 30, 2024 and met the condition that no default or event of default exists, and which is further extendable to October 1, 2026, subject to FDA approval of the Company’s NDA (or supplemental NDA) for vonoprazan for an indication relating to the healing and maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis with an approved indication on the label that is generally consistent with that sought in the Company’s NDA submission (or supplemental NDA submission), or the Third Performance Milestone, on or prior to September 30, 2025 and no default or event of default exists (the “interest only period”). After the interest-only period, the principal balance and related interest will be required to be repaid in equal monthly installments and continuing until the Maturity Date. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay a final payment fee of 7.50% of the original principal amount of amounts actually advanced under the Term Loan, or, each a Term Loan Advance and together, the Term Loan Advances. As of June 30, 2022, the aggregate final payment fee for the first Term Loan Advance of $7.5 million has been recorded as an other long-term liability. T he Company may elect to prepay all or a portion of the Term Loan Advances prior to maturity, subject to a prepayment fee of up to 1.25% of the then outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan Advances being prepaid. After repayment, no Term Loan amounts may be borrowed again. As collateral for the obligations, the Company has granted to Hercules a senior security interest in all of Company’s right, title, and interest in, to and under substantially all of Company’s property, inclusive of intellectual property. T he Loan Agreement contains customary closing fees, prepayment fees and provisions, events of default, and representations, warranties and covenants, including a financial covenant requiring Phathom to maintain certain levels of cash subject to a control agreement in favor of the Agent (minus accounts payable not paid within 120 days of invoice), or Qualified Cash, and commencing on May 15, 2023, trailing three-month net product revenue from the sale of vonoprazan and products containing vonoprazan. The revenue covenant will be waived at any time in which the Company maintains Qualified Cash equal to at least 60.0% (prior to the Third Performance Milestone), and 35% (following the Third Performance Milestone) of the total outstanding Term Loan principal amount, or the Company’s market capitalization is at least $900.0 million. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, subject to any specified cure periods, all amounts owed by the Company may be declared immediately due and payable by Hercules, as collateral agent. As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants under the Loan Agreement. I n connection with the entry into the Loan Agreement, the Company issued to Hercules a warrant, or, the Warrant, to purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 2.5% of the aggregate amount of the Term Loan advances funded, and will issue to Hercules additional warrants when future Term Loan advances are funded. On the Closing Date, the Company issued a Warrant for 74,782 shares of common stock. The Warrant will be exercisable for a period of seven years from the date of issuance at a per-share exercise price equal to $33.43, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on September 16, 2021. The Warrant is exercisable any time until September 17, 2028 and had an initial fair value of approximately $1.3 million. The initial $1.3 million fair value of the Warrant, the $7.5 million final interest payment fee and $3.1 million of debt issuance costs have been recorded as debt discount and are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the Term Loan. Future minimum principal and interest payments under the Term Loan, including the final payment fee, as of June 30, 2022 are as follows (in thousands):
Year ending December 31: |  |  |
2022 |  | $ | 3,638 |

2024 |  |  | 7,790 |

Total principal and interest payments |  |  | 154,850 |
Less interest and final payment fee |  |  | (54,850 | )
Total term loan borrowings |  | $ | 100,000 |
Prior to the Loan Agreement with Hercules, the Company had a loan with Silicon Valley Bank, or SVB, and approximately $54.3 million of the proceeds from the First Advance was used to satisfy in full and retire the Company’s indebtedness under the SVB Term Loan with SVB, including accrued interest through the payoff date. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $3.0 million and $5.8 million, respectively, of interest expense, including amortization of the debt discount, in connection with the Hercules Loan Agreement compared to $1.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2021 in connection with the SVB Term Loan. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding loan balance of $102.7 million and accrued interest of $0.6 million.
