Insurance Financing
In July 2023, the Company obtained financing for director and officer and other insurance premiums. The agreement for such financing assigns to the lender a first priority lien on and a security interest in the financed insurance policies and any additional premium required in the financed insurance policies including (a) all returned or unearned premiums, (b) all additional cash contributions or collateral amounts assessed by the insurance companies in relation to the financed insurance policies and financed by the lender, (c) any credits generated by the financed insurance policies, (d) dividend payments, and (e) loss payments which reduce unearned premiums. If any circumstances exist in which premiums related to any financed insurance policy could become fully earned in the event of loss, the lender will be named a loss-payee with respect to such policy.
The total premiums, taxes and fees financed was approximately $0.6 million with an annual interest rate of approximately 8.0%. In consideration of the premium payment by the lender to the insurance companies or the agent or broker, the Company promised to pay the lender the amount financed plus interest and other charges permitted under the agreement. The Company will make monthly installment payments on the financed amount through April 20, 2024. The financed amount, or note payable, is recognized as an insurance financing cost included in other current assets and accrued expenses in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2024, the Company's remaining obligation under the agreement was approximately $67,000.

In July 2021, the Company entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement, or the CRADA, with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, as represented by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, or NICHD, for the conduct of a multi-center, non-comparative, pivotal Phase 3 clinical study of Ovaprene, or the Ovaprene Phase 3. The Ovaprene Phase 3 will be conducted within NICHD’s Contraceptive Clinical Trial Network with NICHD's contract research organization providing clinical coordination and data collection and management services for the Ovaprene Phase 3. The Company and NICHD will each provide medical oversight and final data review and analysis for the Ovaprene Phase 3 and will work together to prepare the final report of the results of the Ovaprene Phase 3. The Company is responsible for providing clinical supplies of Ovaprene, coordinating interactions with the FDA, preparing and submitting supportive regulatory documentation, and providing a total of $5.5 million in payments to NICHD to be applied toward the costs of conducting the Ovaprene Phase 3. NICHD is responsible for the other costs related to the conduct of the Ovaprene Phase 3. The Company has made aggregate payments of $5.0 million to NICHD, all of which was paid before January 1, 2023. The Company's remaining obligation under the CRADA at March 31, 2024 was $0.5 million.
