Oxford Term Loans Overview. Lexicon and one of its subsidiaries entered into a loan and security agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Oxford Finance LLC and the lenders listed therein (“Oxford”) in March 2022 (as subsequently amended) that provides up to $150 million in borrowing capacity (the “Oxford Term Loans”).
The Oxford Term Loans are available in five tranches, each maturing in March 2029. The first two $25 million tranches totaling $50 million were funded in 2022 and the third $50 million tranche was funded in June 2023. The fourth $25 million tranche will be available for draw at Lexicon’s option upon the achievement of specified INPEFA net sales and until April 15, 2025. An unused fee will be due in the event Lexicon does not draw the full amount when available under the fourth tranche. The fifth $25 million tranche is available for draw at Lexicon’s option, subject to Oxford’s consent, at any time prior to the expiration of the interest-only period in March 2027 as described below.
As of September 30, 2024, the carrying value of the Oxford Term Loans on the condensed consolidated balance sheet was $99.9 million, reflecting an unamortized discount of $7.1 million to the face value of long-term debt related to debt issuance costs, the final payment exit fee, and the warrant fair value described below, which are being amortized into interest and other expense. A final payment exit fee of $7.0 million equal to 7% of the amount funded under the Oxford Term Loans is due upon prepayment or maturity.
Oxford Warrants. Concurrent with the funding of each of the first three tranches, Lexicon granted Oxford warrants to purchase 420,673 shares of Lexicon’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.08 per share, 224,128 shares of Lexicon’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.95 per share and 183,824 shares of Lexicon’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.38 per share, respectively. Subject to and upon funding of the fourth tranche, Lexicon will grant Oxford a warrant to
purchase shares of its common stock having a value equal to 1.75% of such tranche, as determined by reference to a 10-day average closing price of the shares, and having an exercise price equal to such average closing price. All warrants are exercisable for five years from their respective grant dates and feature a net cashless exercise provision. The Company allocated the proceeds from each term loan tranche to the corresponding warrant using the relative fair value method and used the Black-Scholes model to calculate the fair value of the warrants. These warrants reduced the carrying value of long-term debt and are classified as equity instruments in additional paid-in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Interest and Principal Payments. Monthly interest-only payments are due during an initial 60-month period from the original March 2022 borrowing date. The interest-only period will be followed by an amortization period extending through the maturity date with monthly principal payments beginning May 1, 2027. Payments of $34.8 million, $52.2 million, and $20.0 million, including debt principal and final exit fee payments, will be due during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2027, December 31, 2028 and December 31, 2029, respectively, with respect to all borrowed loan tranches as of September 30, 2024. Any prepayment of the Oxford Term Loans is subject to prepayment fees of up to 3% which decline over the three years following the funding date of each loan tranche.
Following the June 2023 amendment to the Loan Agreement, the floating interest rate is currently based on the sum of (a) the 1-month CME Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), (b) 0.10%, and (c) 7.90% for the first and second tranches and 7.00% for the third and fourth tranches. Prior to June 2023, the Oxford Term Loans bore interest at a floating rate equal to the 30-day U.S. Dollar LIBOR plus 7.90%, but not less than 8.01%. As of September 30, 2024, the weighted average interest rate of the Oxford Term Loans was 12.7%.

Restrictive Provisions/Covenants. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, Oxford may declare all amounts outstanding under the Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable. Additionally, Lexicon may prepay the Oxford Term Loans in whole at its option at any time.
Lexicon’s obligations under the Oxford Term Loans are secured by a first lien security interest in all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Loan Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default applicable to Lexicon and its subsidiaries. The Loan Agreement includes a financial covenant which requires Lexicon to maintain a minimum unrestricted cash and investments balance of 50% of the outstanding principal amount through June 30, 2026, tested monthly as of the last day of each month. In addition, Lexicon is separately required to maintain a quarterly minimum unrestricted cash and investments balance of $10 million until the achievement of specified INPEFA net sales (which will be satisfied by meeting the monthly minimum unrestricted cash and investments covenant noted above). Upon funding of the fourth tranche, the quarterly minimum unrestricted cash and investments balance requirement will increase to $25 million. The Loan Agreement also includes a separate financial covenant relating to net product revenue which will be effective as of the quarter ending June 30, 2026. In addition to the financial covenants, additional covenants include those restricting dispositions, fundamental changes to its business, mergers or acquisitions, indebtedness, encumbrances, distributions, investments, transactions with affiliates and subordinated debt. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of September 30, 2024.
