Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 7, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiary, Halozyme, Inc., a California corporation (“Halozyme” and together with the Company, the “Borrowers”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Oxford Finance LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Oxford”), and Silicon Valley Bank, a California corporation (“SVB” and together with Oxford, the “Lenders”), providing a senior secured loan facility of up to an aggregate principal amount of $70 million. On the Effective Date, the Borrowers drew $55 million at an annual interest rate of 8.25% and used the proceeds to refinance its current outstanding term loan and to pay associated final payment fees. The Borrowers have the option to draw the remaining $15 million during the second calendar quarter of 2017 at an annual interest rate equal to the then-current prime rate plus 4.75%. The proceeds are to be used for working capital and general business requirements.

The term loan facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers, except that the collateral does not include the Company’s equity interest in Halozyme, any intellectual property (including all licensing, collaboration and similar agreements relating thereto), and certain other excluded assets. The term loan repayment schedule provides for interest only payments for the first 18 months, followed by consecutive equal monthly payments of principal and interest in arrears through the maturity date of January 1, 2021. The Loan Agreement provides for a final payment equal to 5.50% of the initial $55 million principal amount and, if the Company exercises its option to draw an additional $15 million in 2017, 7.25% of the principal amount of second draw. The final payment is due when the term loans become due or upon the prepayment of the facility.

The Loan Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Borrowers, as well as customary events of default and indemnification obligations of the Borrowers.
