Item 8.01.
Other Events.
 
On October 31, 2017, Humanigen, Inc. (the “Company”) obtained an extension from its lenders of the maturity of the Company’s obligations under the Credit and Security Agreement dated December 21, 2016, as amended on March 21, 2017 and on July 8, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”) with Black Horse Capital Master Fund Ltd., as administrative agent and lender (“BHCMF” or “Agent”), Black Horse Capital LP, as a lender (“BHC”), Cheval Holdings, Ltd., as a lender (“Cheval”) and Nomis Bay LTD, as a lender (“Nomis” and, together with BHCMF, BHC and Cheval, the “Lenders”). As of October 31, 2017, the aggregate amount of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement, including accrued interest and fees, approximated $16.1 million.

The Company does not have access to sufficient funds to repay the outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement. Accordingly, the Company has been discussing and continues to discuss with its Lenders alternative asset-based transactions that might result in the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations. There can be no assurances that the Lenders will agree to continue discussing any such alternative transactions or that the Company ultimately will be able to reach agreement with such Lenders on the terms of any alternative transaction.

The extension agreed with the Lenders extends the maturity date of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement to the earlier of (i) November 10, 2017, or (ii) the date that the Company consummates one or more alternative transactions with the Lenders. Aside from the extension of the Maturity Date, the extension did not modify any of the terms under the Credit Agreement.
