Notes Payable | 8. NOTES PAYABLE Horizon Credit Agreement On June 27, 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Horizon Technology Finance Corporation (“Horizon”) that provided $10 million in new capital (the “Horizon Credit Agreement”). The Company drew down $10 million upon closing of the Horizon Credit Agreement on June 27, 2018. On August 28, 2020, Horizon and the Company amended the Horizon Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) whereby Celsion repaid $5 million of the $10 million loan and $0.2 million in related end of term charges, and the remaining $5 million in obligations were restructured as set forth below. Pursuant to the Amendment, the remaining $5 million in obligations of Celsion under the Initial Horizon Credit Agreement are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all assets of Celsion other than intellectual property assets. The obligations bear interest at a rate calculated based an amount by which the one-month LIBOR exceeds 2% plus 7.625%. In no event shall the interest rate be less than 9.625%. Payments pursuant to the Amendment are interest only for the first twelve (12) months after August 1, 2020, followed by a 21-month amortization period of principal and interest through the scheduled maturity date. In addition, the remaining $5 million in obligations is subject to an end of term fee equal, in the aggregate, to $275,000, which amount shall be payable upon the maturity of the obligations or upon the date of final payment or default, as applicable. In connection with the Amendment, Celsion agreed to a liquidity covenant which provides that, at all times, Celsion shall maintain unrestricted cash and/or cash equivalents on deposit in accounts over which the applicable Lenders maintain an account control agreement in an amount not less than $2.5 million. In addition, pursuant to the Amendment, Celsion has agreed to provide evidence to Horizon on or before March 31, 2021, that it has received aggregate cash proceeds of not less than $5 million from the sale of equity, debt, its New Jersey net operating losses, or a combination thereof, subsequent to the date of the Amendment. The Company met this requirement during the fourth quarter of 2020. In connection with the Horizon Credit Agreement, the Company incurred financing fees and expenses totaling $175,000 which were recorded and classified as debt discount. In addition, the Company paid loan origination fees of $100,000 which were recorded and classified as debt discount. These debt discount amounts totaling $782,116 were being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the loan. Also, in connection with each of the Horizon Credit Agreements, the Company is required to pay an end of term charge equal to 4.0% of the original loan amount at time of maturity. Therefore, these amounts totaling $400,000 were being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the loan. As a fee in connection with the Horizon Credit Agreement, Celsion issued Horizon warrants exercisable for a total of 190,114 shares of Celsion’s common stock (the “Existing Warrants”) at a per share exercise price of $2.63. The Horizon Warrants were immediately exercisable for cash or by net exercise from the date of grant and will expire after ten years from the date of grant. The Company valued the Horizon Warrants issued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recorded a total of $507,116 as a direct deduction from the debt liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts, and are being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the loan. Pursuant to the Amendment, one-half of the aggregate Existing Warrants, exercisable for a total of 95,057 shares of Celsion’s common stock, have been canceled, and, in connection with the Amendment, Celsion issued Horizon new warrants exercisable at a per share exercise price equal to $1.01 for a total of 247,525 shares of Celsion’s common stock (the “New Warrants” and, together with the Existing Warrants, the “Warrants”). The remaining 95,057 Existing Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Horizon Credit Agreement remain outstanding at a per share exercise price of $2.63. The New Warrants are immediately exercisable for cash or by net exercise from the date of grant and will expire after ten years from the date of grant. Effective October 27, 2020. The Horizon Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and affirmative and negative covenants including, among other things, covenants that limit or restrict Celsion’s ability to grant liens, incur indebtedness, make certain restricted payments, merge, or consolidate and make dispositions of assets. The Amendment was evaluated in accordance with FASB ASC 470-50, Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments, for debt modification and extinguishment accounting. We accounted for the $5 million we repaid as a debt extinguishment thereby reducing the principal obligations accordingly. Also, in connection with the $5 million repayment, we recognized as interest expense, approximately $0.2 million of unamortized debt discount, deferred financing and end of term fees related to the repaid obligation in August 2020. We accounted for the remaining $5 million of obligation under the Amendment as a debt modification to the initial agreement with respect to the minor changes in cash flows. Also, in connection with the $5 million remaining obligations, we recorded $5,000 of financing fees and the New Warrant fair value of $247,548 as additional debt discount on the $5 million remaining obligation. Therefore, approximately $109,706 of unamortized debt discount will be amortized over the remaining life of the new obligations. The $275,000 of end of term fees, net of previously amortized end of term fees totaling $142,605 previously accrued on the original note associated with the $5 million remaining obligation, will be amortized as interest expense over the remaining life of the new obligations. During 2020, the Company incurred $808,899 in interest expense and amortized $483,439 as interest expense for debt discounts and end of term charges in connection with the Horizon Credit Agreement. During 2019, the Company incurred $1,006,760 in interest expense and amortized $386,640 as interest expense for debt discounts and end of term charges in connection with the Horizon Credit Agreement. Following is a schedule of future principal payments, net of unamortized debt discounts and amortized end of term charges, due on the Horizon Credit Agreement:

Paycheck Protection Program On April 23, 2020, we entered into a loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “April PPP Loan”), pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”), established pursuant to the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). We thereafter received proceeds of $632,220 under the April PPP Loan. The April PPP Loan application required Celsion to certify that there was economic uncertainty surrounding the Company and that, as such, the April PPP Loan was necessary to support our ongoing operations. Celsion made this certification in good faith after analyzing, among other things, its financial situation and access to alternative forms of capital and believed that the Company satisfied all eligibility criteria for the April PPP Loan, and that our receipt of the April PPP Loan proceeds was consistent with the broad objectives of the PPP of the CARES Act. The certification given with respect to the April PPP Loan did not contain any objective criteria and was subject to interpretation. Considering subsequent guidance issued by the SBA in consultation with the U.S. Department of the Treasury at that time, out of an abundance of caution we returned the proceeds of the PPP Loan in full on May 13, 2020. Shortly after the April PPP Loan was repaid, the SBA provided further guidance with respect to these certifications providing a safe harbor under which companies such as Celsion with PPP loans of less than $2 million will be deemed to have made these certifications in good faith. Therefore, as the Company continued to believe it qualifies for a loan under the PPP, it reapplied for and eventually received the new PPP Loan for $692,530 on May 26, 2020 (the “May PPP Loan”). The May PPP Loan was guaranteed by the SBA and evidenced by a promissory note of the Company dated May 26, 2020 (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $692,530 payable to the lender. Pursuant to the terms of the Note, was payable in part or in full, at any time, without penalty. On June 22, 2020, as disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on the same date, the Company commenced an offering of 2,666,667 shares of its common stock which closed on June 24, 2020 (Note 10) and received net proceeds of approximately $9.1 million. In light of the proceeds received from this equity offering, the Company elected to repay the May PPP Loan in full (including interest accrued of $577) on June 24, 2020, terminating all obligations of the Company under the Note.
