Contributions under the grant were made through 2014 and no further funds are available. Amounts claimed by the Canadian Subsidiary must be repaid in the form of a 10% royalty on any products that are commercialized out of this research project until the loan is fully repaid. Revenue from the sale of AquAdvantage Salmon are not subject to the royalty, and the Company does not expect to commercialize products that would be subject to the royalty in the next five years.

All available funding under the agreement was disbursed through May 2017, and no further amounts are available. The loan is being repaid over a period of nine years. On November 13, 2018, the Canadian Subsidiary executed a second agreement with ACOA to partially finance the renovations to the Rollo Bay site. The terms of the agreement include funding up to C$500 thousand ($367 thousand) with repayment commencing after the final draw-down of the funds.

In August 2016, the Canadian Subsidiary obtained a loan from FPEI to partially finance the purchase of the assets of the former Atlantic Sea Smolt plant in Rollo Bay West on Prince Edward Island. On October 16, 2018, the Canadian Subsidiary obtained a new loan from FPEI, which incorporates the existing loan and provides C$2.0 million ($1.5 million) of additional funds. As of December 31, 2018, C$1.0 million ($734 thousand) has been drawn down. Payments will commence once all funds have been drawn.
