The Loan Agreement provides for a total of $11,727 in senior secured financing (the “Senior Credit Facility”) as follows: (i) discretionary advances (“Revolving Advances”) based on eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory in the maximum amount of $8,000 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and (ii) a term loan in the amount of $3,727 (the “Term Loan”). The Senior Credit Facility is secured by all assets of the Borrowers, including, without limitation, machinery and equipment, real estate owned by IHT Properties, and the iBio Stock owned by the Company. Revolving Advances bear interest at PNC’s Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, at Borrowers’ option, plus 2.75% (3.25% as of December 31 and June 30, 2012). The Term Loan bears interest at PNC’s Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, at Borrowers’ option, plus 3.25% (3.75% as of December 31 and June 30, 2012).  Upon and after the occurrence of any event of default under the Loan Agreement, and during the continuation thereof, interest shall be payable at the interest rate then applicable plus 2%.  The Senior Credit Facility matures on June 27, 2017 (the “Senior Maturity Date”).

The principal balance of the Revolving Advances is payable on the Senior Maturity Date, subject to acceleration, based upon a material adverse event clause, as defined, subjective accelerations for borrowing base reserves, as defined or upon the occurrence of any event of default under the Loan Agreement or earlier termination of the Loan Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof.  The Term Loan shall be repaid in sixty (60) consecutive monthly installments of principal, the first fifty nine (59) of which shall be in the amount of $44, commencing on the first business day of August, 2012, and continuing on the first business day of each month thereafter, with a final payment of any unpaid balance of principal and interest payable on the first business day of July, 2017. The foregoing is subject to customary mandatory prepayment provisions and acceleration upon the occurrence of any event of default under the Loan Agreement or earlier termination of the Loan Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof.
