Note 15 – Subsequent events

​

On April 12, 2024 we announced the termination of the strategic collaboration between us and Genentech in relation to the research, development and commercialization of cancer targeted allogeneic T-cell therapies. The termination becomes effective 180 days after the date of receipt of the notice of termination (the “Genentech Termination Date”). As a result of the termination of the Agreement, Adaptimmune will not be entitled to receive any further milestones or other payments that become due after the Genentech Termination Date. We will also cease to have any development obligations after the Genentech Termination Date and all licenses granted to Genentech pursuant to the Agreement will cease to be in effect as of the Genentech Termination Date. The termination is expected to result in the deferred revenue associated with the agreement of $146,287,000 as of March 31, 2024, being recognised as revenue in the remainder of 2024. However, the Company is still evaluating the terms of the termination and therefore an estimate of the other financial effects of this event on the Company cannot yet be made.

On February 27, 2024 we announced the return of Cintia Piccina as our Chief Commercial Officer, effective March 18, 2024.

On May 14, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), with several banks and other financial institutions or entities (each, a “Lender”, and collectively “Lenders”) and Hercules Capital, Inc. (the “Agent”), for a term loan facility of up to $125.0 million (the “Term Loan”), consisting of a term loan advance in the aggregate principal amount equal to $25.0 million on the Closing Date (the “Tranche 1 Advance”), a term loan advance available to the Company subject to certain terms and conditions in the aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million (the “Tranche 2 Advance’), a term loan advance available subject to certain terms and conditions in the aggregate amount of $5.0 million (the “Tranche 3 Advance”), a term loan advance available subject to certain terms and conditions in the aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million (the “Tranche 4 Advance”) and a term loan advance available in the sole discretion of the Lenders and subject to certain terms and conditions in the aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million (the “Tranche 5 Advance” and together with each Tranche Advance, the “Term Loan Advances”). The proceeds of the Term Loan will be used solely to repay related fees and expenses in connection with the Loan Agreement and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
