Item 1.01              Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 27, 2015, T2 Biosystems, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “First Amendment”) with Solar Capital Ltd., as collateral agent  (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) and lender, and Comerica Bank, as lender (together, the “Lenders”) to modify certain terms of the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, dated as of July 11, 2014.  Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Lenders agreed to loan the Company an aggregate amount of up to $30.0 million in aggregate principal in two tranches: (i) up to $20.0 million available at closing but no later than December 31, 2014, to be drawn in up to three drawings (subject to certain conditions), or tranche A, and (ii) up to $10.0 million available upon the fulfillment of certain conditions but no later than June 30, 2015, or tranche B.  The Company previously drew an initial amount of $10.0 million under tranche A on July 11, 2014 in connection with the entry into the Loan Agreement and an additional amount of $10.0 million under tranche A on December 29, 2014. The First Amendment extends the time period during which the Company can make draws under tranche B from June 30, 2015 to December 31, 2015, and requires the additional payment by the Company of a fee of one percent (1%) per annum on any undrawn amounts under tranche B for the period between July 1, 2015 and December 31, 2015, payable to the Lenders on December 31, 2015; provided, however, that upon any draw under tranche B the Company shall pay the amount of the accrued but unpaid portion of the fee as of the date of that draw.

 

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Loan Amendment, a copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K.
