Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 26, 2018, Invitae Corporation (“Invitae”), together with its subsidiaries PatientCrossroads, Inc., Good Start Genetics, Inc., Ommdom Inc., Combimatrix Corporation and Combimatrix Molecular Diagnostics, Inc., entered into a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “2018 Amendment”) with Oxford Finance LLC (the “Lender”) which amended that certain Loan and Security Agreement entered into as of March 15, 2017 between Invitae, PatientCrossroads, Inc. and the Lender (the “2017 Loan Agreement”). Pursuant to the 2017 Loan Agreement, Invitae borrowed an initial term loan of $40 million and, subject to certain conditions, Invitae is eligible to borrow a second term loan of $20 million during the first quarter of 2018. As amended by the 2018 Amendment, Invitae is eligible under the 2017 Loan Agreement to borrow an additional term loan of up to $20 million during the second quarter of 2018, subject to certain conditions, and subsidiaries of Invitae (Good Start Genetics, Inc., Ommdom Inc., Combimatrix Corporation and Combimatrix Molecular Diagnostics, Inc.) are added to the 2017 Loan Agreement as additional borrowers (together with Invitae, the “Borrowers”).

Term loans under the 2017 Loan Agreement as amended by the 2018 Amendment bear interest at a floating rate equal to an index rate plus 7.73%, where the index rate is the greater of 0.77% or the 30-day U.S. Dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) as reported in the Wall Street Journal, with the floating rate resetting monthly subject to a floor of 8.5%. The Borrowers can make monthly interest-only payments until May 1, 2019 (or, subject to certain conditions, May 1, 2020), and thereafter monthly payments of principal and interest are required to fully amortize the borrowed amount by a final maturity date of March 1, 2022. A fee of 5% of each funded draw is due at the earlier of prepayment or loan maturity, a facility fee of 0.5% is due upon funding for each draw, a prepayment fee of between 1% and 3% of the outstanding balance will apply in the event of a prepayment, and a non-utilization fee of 1% is due on June 29, 2018 with respect to any portion of the $20 million in available term loan during the second quarter of 2018 which is not borrowed. Concurrent with each term loan, Invitae will grant to the Lender a warrant to acquire shares of Invitae’s common stock equal to the quotient of 3% of the funded amount divided by a per share exercise price equal to the lower of the average closing price for the previous ten days of trading (calculated on the day prior to funding) or the closing price on the day prior to funding. In connection with the initial term loan, Invitae granted the Lender a warrant to purchase 116,845 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $10.27 per share. The warrants have a term of ten years from the date of issuance and include a cashless exercise provision.

Obligations of the Borrowers under the 2017 Loan Agreement as amended by the 2018 Amendment are subject to quarterly covenants to achieve certain revenue levels and accessioned test volumes as well as additional covenants, including limits on the ability of Borrowers to dispose of assets, undergo a change in control, merge with or acquire other entities, incur debt, incur liens, pay dividends or other distributions to holders of Invitae’s capital stock, repurchase stock and make investments, in each case subject to certain exceptions. Obligations of the Borrowers under the 2017 Loan Agreement as amended by the 2018 Amendment are secured by a security interest on substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers, excluding intellectual property.

The foregoing description of the 2017 Loan Agreement, the 2018 Amendment and the warrants is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2017 Loan Agreement, the 2018 Amendment and the Form of Warrant to Purchase Common Stock, copies of which are filed (or incorporated by reference) as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, to this report.

A GREEMENT

N OW , T HEREFORE , in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

2. Joinder.

2.1 New Borrower . Each New Borrower hereby is added as a “Borrower” under the Loan Agreement. All references in the Agreement to “Borrower” shall hereafter mean and include the Existing Borrower and each New Borrower individually and collectively, jointly and severally; and each New Borrower shall hereafter have all rights, duties and obligations of “Borrower” thereunder.

2.2 Joinder to Loan Agreement . Each New Borrower hereby joins the Loan Agreement and each of the Loan Documents (other than the Warrants), and agrees to comply with and be bound by all of the terms, conditions and covenants of the Loan Agreement and Loan Documents (other than the Warrants), as if it were originally named a “Borrower” therein. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, each New Borrower agrees that it will be jointly and severally liable, together with Existing Borrower, for the payment and performance of all obligations and liabilities of Borrower under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the Obligations. Each Borrower may, acting singly, request Credit Extensions pursuant to the Loan Agreement.


Each Borrower hereby appoints the other as agent for the other for all purposes hereunder, including with respect to requesting Credit Extensions pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Each Borrower hereunder shall be obligated to repay all Credit Extensions made pursuant to the Loan Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives said Credit Extension, as if each Borrower hereunder directly received all Credit Extensions.

2.3 Subrogation and Similar Rights . Each Borrower waives (a) any suretyship defenses available to it under the Code or any other applicable law, including, without limitation, the benefit of California Civil Code Section 2815 permitting revocation as to future transactions and the benefit of California Civil Code Sections 1432, 2809, 2810, 2819, 2839, 2845, 2847, 2848, 2849, 2850, and 2899 and 3433, and (b) any right to require Collateral Agent or any Lender to: (i) proceed against any Borrower or any other person; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security; or (iii) pursue any other remedy. Collateral Agent and or any Lender may exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it has against any Borrower or any security it holds (including the right to foreclose by judicial or non-judicial sale) without affecting any Borrower’s liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Amendment, the Loan Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other related documents, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Borrower to the rights of Collateral Agent and the Lenders under this Amendment and the Loan Agreement) to seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, for any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Amendment, the Loan Agreement or otherwise and all rights that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the Obligations as a result of any payment made by Borrower with respect to the Obligations in connection with this Amendment, the Loan Agreement or otherwise.

2.4 Grant of Security Interest .

Each New Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral, subject only to Permitted Liens that are permitted by the terms of the Loan Agreement to have priority to Collateral Agent’s Lien. Each New Borrower hereby authorizes Collateral Agent to file financing statements or take any other action required to perfect Collateral Agent’s security interests in the Collateral, without notice to New Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect Collateral Agent’s interest or rights under the Loan Documents, including a notice that any disposition of the Collateral, except to the extent permitted by the terms of the Loan Agreement, by New Borrower, or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Collateral Agent under the Code.

2.5 Representations and Warranties . Each New Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Collateral Agent and each Lender that all representations and warranties in the Loan Documents made on the part of Existing Borrower are true and correct on the date hereof with respect to Existing Borrower and New Borrower, with the same force and effect as if New Borrower were named as “Borrower” in the Loan Documents in addition to Existing Borrower.
