CREDIT AGREEMENT CREDIT AGREEMENT
In April 2020, we entered into a credit agreement, or Credit Agreement, among us, certain of our subsidiaries (such subsidiaries, together with us, the Loan Parties), funds or accounts managed or advised by GSO Capital Partners LP (now Blackstone Alternative Credit Advisors LP) and certain other affiliates of The Blackstone Group Inc., and the other lenders from time to time parties thereto, collectively, the Lenders, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as the administrative agent for the Lenders. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured delayed draw term loan facility, referred to as the Term Loans, which consists of three tranches providing funding of $700.0 million. The Tranche 1 Loan of $200.0 million, the Tranche 2 loan of $250.0 million and the Tranche 3 Loan of $250.0 million were drawn as of December 31, 2020, June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2021 respectively, and are included in long-term debt in the consolidated balance sheets. In addition to the $700.0 million previously drawn under the Credit Agreement, we may also request an increase in an amount not to exceed $50.0 million on terms to be agreed and subject to the consent of the Lenders providing such increase.
The Term Loans mature in December 2027. We may, at our option, pay interest in kind on interest due through 2023 at a rate that is 1% higher than the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Term Loan. As of December 31, 2021, we had elected a LIBOR Rate plus 7%, and paid $17.5 million in total funding fees in connection with such Term Loans. Our interest rate was 8% as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.
We are obligated to pay interest due on the Term Loans from 2021 through 2022 which will be calculated without regard to the Term Loans being prepaid. Any prepayments of Term Loans that occur between 2023 and 2025 are subject to a fee of up to 5% of the loan principal that is prepaid.
All obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by security interests in the following assets: (i) intellectual property owned by us relating to ONPATTRO, GIVLAARI and vutrisiran, (ii) the equity interests held by the Loan Parties in their subsidiaries, (iii) all of our ownership of the inclisiran royalty remaining after the royalty purchase under the Purchase Agreement, and (iv) material real property, and certain personal property, including, without limitation, cash held in certain deposit accounts of the Loan Parties and equipment.
The Credit Agreement contains negative covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, could restrict our ability to, incur additional liens, incur additional indebtedness, make investments, including acquisitions, engage in fundamental changes, sell or dispose of assets that constitute collateral, including certain intellectual property, pay dividends or make any distribution or payment on or redeem, retire or purchase any equity interests, amend, modify or waive certain material agreements or organizational documents and make payments of certain subordinated indebtedness. Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and provisions relating to events of default, including nonpayment of principal, interest and other amounts; failure to comply with covenants; the rendering of judgments or orders or default by us in respect of other material indebtedness; and certain insolvency and ERISA events. The Credit Agreement also requires us to have consolidated liquidity of at least $100.0 million as of the last day of each fiscal
quarter. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, we were in compliance with the applicable terms and conditions of the covenants under the Credit Agreement.
