In December 2016, the Company entered into a loan agreement and received $7,000 that bears interest on the outstanding daily balance at a floating per annum rate equal to the 30 day U.S. LIBOR rate plus 5.41%. The agreement also allows the Company to borrow an additional $3,000 if certain conditions are met, which as of March 31, 2017 had not been met. The loan agreement created a first priority security interest with respect to substantially all assets of the Company, including proceeds of intellectual property, but expressly excluding intellectual property itself.
 
The Company is required to pay accrued interest on the current loan on the first day of each month through and including January 1, 2018. Commencing on February 1, 2018, the Company is required make equal monthly payments of principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest. The principal balance of the current loan amortizes ratably over 36 months and matures on January 1, 2021, at which time all unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable in full. In addition, a final payment of $245 will be due on the maturity date, of which $24 has accreted as of March 31, 2017 to be paid in 2021 and is included as a component of note payable in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
 
In December 2016, and pursuant to the loan agreement, the Company entered into a success fee agreement with the lender under which the Company agreed to pay the lender a $250 success fee upon the first to occur of any of the following events: (a) a sale or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets; (b) a merger or consolidation of the Company into or with another person or entity, where the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities immediately prior to such merger or consolidation hold less than a majority of the issued and outstanding voting equity securities of the successor or surviving person or entity immediately following the consummation of such merger or consolidation; or (c) the closing price per share for the Company’s common stock being $8.00 or more for five successive business days. The estimated fair value of the success fee was determined using the Binomial Lattice Model and was recorded as a discount to the debt obligation. The fair value of the contingent success fee is re-measured each reporting period with any adjustments in fair value being recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The success fee is classified as a liability on the consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2017, the carrying value of the contingent success fee liability was $117.
 
The loan agreement includes a liquidity covenant requiring that the Company maintain unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in accounts of the lender or subject to control agreements in favor of the lender in an amount equal to at least three months of “Monthly Cash Burn,” which is the Company’s average monthly net income (loss) for the trailing six-month period plus certain expenses and plus the average monthly principal due and payable on interest-bearing liabilities in the immediately succeeding three-month period. Such amount was determined to be $6,678 as of March 31, 2017, the most current determination, with the amount subject to change on a month-to-month basis. At March 31, 2017, with cash on hand of $9,426, the Company was in compliance with this liquidity covenant and all other covenants.
 
The final payment fee, debt issuance costs, and the initial fair value of the success fee combined with the stated interest result in an effective annual interest rate of 8.78% for three month period ended March 31, 2017. The final payment fee, the initial fair value of the success fee and debt issuance costs will be accreted and amortized, respectively, to interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the loan.
