Pursuant to the CTS Agreement, the Company recorded expenses of $2,327, $2,278 and $2,466 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, and included in cost of goods sold. The CTS Agreement was amended on December 31, 2023, extending the term through December 31, 2026. The CTS Agreement may be terminated by either party by providing an eighteen-month written notice.

The Cook Biotech agreement establishes a formula for the transfer cost of the Axoguard products and requires certain minimum purchases by the Company, although, through mutual agreement, the parties have not established such minimums; and, to date, have not enforced such provision. Under the Cook Biotech agreement, the Company provides purchase orders to Cook Biotech, and Cook Biotech fulfills the purchase orders. The agreement allows for termination provisions for both parties. The loss of the ability to sell the Axoguard products could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business until other replacement products would be available.

On January 31, 2024, RTI Surgical, Inc. announced the acquisition of Cook Biotech. Although we do not expect the acquisition of Cook Biotech to have a material impact on our relationship with Cook Biotech or our operations. Processing Facilities The Company is highly dependent on the continued availability of its processing facilities at CTS and APC in Dayton, Ohio and could be harmed if the physical infrastructure of this facility is unavailable for any prolonged period of time. Certain Economic Development Grants The Company obtained certain economic development grants from state and local authorities totaling up to $2,685 including $1,250 of cash grants to offset costs to acquire and develop the APC Facility. The economic development grants are subject to certain job creation milestones by December 31, 2023, and have clawback clauses if the Company does not meet the job creation milestones. The Company requested an extension from the grant authorities to extend the job creation milestones and received approval to extend the evaluation date to December 31, 2024, and the expiration date to December 31, 2026. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had received $1,188 in cash grants during the years ended 2021 and 2020. Fair Value of the Debt Derivative Liabilities The fair value of the debt derivative liabilities is $2,987 as of December 31, 2023. The fair value of the debt derivative liabilities was determined using a probability-weighted expected return model based upon the four potential settlement scenarios for the Credit Facility which are described in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Derivative Instruments. The estimated settlement value of each scenario, includes any required make-whole payment see Note 9 - Long- Term Debt, Net of Debt Discount and Financing Fees, is then discounted to present value using a discount rate that is derived based upon the initial terms of the Credit Facility at issuance and corroborated utilizing a synthetic rating analysis. The calculated fair values under the four scenarios are then compared to the fair value of a plain vanilla note, with the difference reflecting the fair value of the debt derivative liabilities. The Company estimated the make-whole payments required under each scenario according to the terms of the Credit Facility to generate an internal rate of return equal to 11.5% through the scheduled maturity dates, less the total of all quarterly interest and royalty payments previously paid to the Lender. The calculation utilized the XIRR function in Microsoft Excel as required by the Credit Facility. If the debt is not prepaid but instead is held to its scheduled maturities, the Company’s estimate of the make-whole payment for the first and second tranches of the Credit Facility due on June 30, 2027, and June 30, 2028, respectively, are approximately zero. The Company has consistently applied this approach since the inception of the debt agreement on June 30, 2020. The Company has become aware that the Lender may have an alternative interpretation of the calculation of the make-whole payments that the Company believes does not properly utilize the same methodology utilized by the XIRR function in Microsoft Excel as described in the Credit Facility. The Company estimates the top end of the range of the make-whole payments if the debt is held to scheduled maturity under an alternative interpretation to be approximately $9,000 for the first tranche of the Credit Facility on June 30, 2027, and approximately $4,000 for the second tranche of the Credit Facility on June 30, 2028. Further, if the debt is prepaid prior to the scheduled maturity dates and subject to the alternative interpretation, the make-whole payment would be larger than the amounts herein. Other Commitments Certain executive officers of the Company are parties to employment contracts. Such contracts have severance payments for certain conditions including change of control. During 2023, the Company entered into certain severance agreements with former employees to pay $755 in severance and $300 in consulting fees in 2024, these amounts were included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheet. The Company also entered into a Transition and Separation Agreement with its CEO on January 4, 2024, which will result in potential payments of $1,538 and $1,646 in 2024 and 2025, respectively, which i ncludes the CEO's 2023 bonus to be paid in March 2024, salary, 2024 bonus to paid in March of 2025, accrued PTO through January 5, 2025, nine months of senior advisory fees, and eighteen months of COBRA payments. Actual timing of payments are subject to the determination of the end of CEO Term per the Transition and Separation Agreement. Legal Proceedings The Company is and may be subject to various claims, lawsuits, and proceedings in the ordinary course of the Company's business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. While there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of any legal proceeding or other loss contingency involving the Company. In the opinion of management, such claims are either adequately covered by insurance or otherwise indemnified, or are not expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a material, adverse effect on the Comp any's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows in a particular period could be materially affected by these contingencies.
