We also want to thank CRG for their partnership and support over the past several years. They have been an excellent partner in the Company’s development.”

The Company’s new loan agreement includes a maturity date of five years for both the term loan and revolving credit facility. The annual interest rate is equal to SOFR subject to a floor of 2%, plus (1) 5.5% under the term loan and (2) 3.75% under the revolving loan.
