Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 23, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), BioDelivery Sciences International, Inc.

The Loan Agreement replaced the Company’s existing Term Loan Agreement (the “Original Loan Agreement”) with CRG Servicing LLC and the Term Loan was used to repay in full all of the outstanding term loans under the Original Loan Agreement.
The facility carries a72-month term with interest only payments on the term loan for the first 36 months. The Term Loan will mature in May 2025 and bears an interest rate of 7.5% plus the LIBOR rate. The Term Loan is subject to mandatory prepayment provisions that require prepayment upon change of control.
The obligations under the Loan Agreement are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries and are secured by a first priority security interest in and a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.
The Loan Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company is required to comply at certain times with a financial covenant consisting of a minimum net sales test. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, Pharmakon may, among other things, accelerate the loans and foreclose on the collateral.
The foregoing description of the Loan Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Loan Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.
