Note 1. Nature of the Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of the Business
Karuna Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in July 2009 as Karuna Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. In March 2019, the Company changed its name to Karuna Therapeutics, Inc. The Company is focused on developing novel therapies with the potential to transform the lives of people with disabling and potentially fatal neuropsychiatric disorders.
Since the Company’s inception, it has focused substantially all of its efforts and financial resources on organizing and staffing the Company, acquiring and developing its technology, raising capital, building its intellectual property portfolio, undertaking preclinical studies and clinical trials and providing general and administrative support for these activities. The Company has not generated any product revenue related to its primary business purpose to date and is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other early stage companies, including dependence on key individuals, regulatory approval of products, uncertainty of market acceptance of products, competition from substitute products and larger companies, compliance with government regulations, protection of proprietary technology, dependence on third parties, product liability, the impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, and the need to obtain adequate additional financing to fund the development of its product candidates.
On June 14, 2019, the Company effected a one-for-1.2987 stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock and a proportional adjustment to the existing conversion ratios for each series of the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively, where applicable, to reflect this stock split and adjustment of the redeemable convertible preferred stock conversion ratios.
On June 27, 2019, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 relating to its initial public offering of its common stock (“IPO”) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the IPO, which closed on July 2, 2019, the Company issued and sold 6,414,842 shares of common stock, including full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase an additional 836,718 shares, at a public offering price of $16.00 per share. The aggregate net proceeds to the Company from the IPO, inclusive of proceeds from the over-allotment exercise, were approximately $93.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $7.2 million and offering expenses of $2.4 million. Upon closing of the IPO, all 12,962,045 shares of the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock then outstanding converted into an aggregate of 16,833,790 shares of common stock.
On November 20, 2019, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 relating to its follow-on public offering of its common stock was declared effective by the SEC. In this offering, which closed on November 25, 2019, the Company issued and sold 2,600,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $96.00 per share. The aggregate net proceeds were approximately $234.2 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $15.0 million and offering expenses of $0.4 million.
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company experienced negative operating cash flows of $24.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and had an accumulated deficit of $101.2 million as of June 30, 2020. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future.
The Company expects that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $367.6 million as of June 30, 2020 will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The future viability of the Company beyond that point is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to fund its operations.
If the Company is unable to obtain funding, the Company could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate some or all of its research and development programs, product portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business prospects, or the Company may be unable to continue operations. Although management continues to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding on terms acceptable to the Company to fund continuing operations, if at all.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Karuna Securities Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020, the consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, and redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are unaudited. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2020 and the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the results of its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020, any other interim periods, or any future year or period.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies and estimates used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements are described in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, and the notes thereto, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies, except for the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), as described more fully below.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which replaces the guidance in ASC 840, “Leases.” In addition, in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, and in March 2019 issued ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements. The new leasing standard generally requires lessees to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets on the consolidated balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2020 and did not restate comparative periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance and, as such, the adoption of this ASU did not change the classification of any of our existing leases. The Company elected to combine lease and non-lease components, elected not to record leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the balance sheet and recognized the associated lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of January 1, 2020, the Company recognized $1.5 million as total lease liabilities and $1.2 million as total right-of-use assets on its consolidated balance sheet as a result of the adoption. The deferred lease obligation of $0.2 million outstanding as of December 31, 2019 was recorded as a reduction of the right-of-use asset.
The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in ROU lease assets, current portion of operating lease liability, and operating lease liability, net of current portion, on the Company’s balance sheets.
ROU lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating ROU lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU lease asset excludes lease incentives. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Changes to terms and conditions of an arrangement that contains a lease are evaluated to determine if a modification had occurred and a lease continues to exist. Lease modifications are accounted for as a separate contract or are treated as a change in accounting for the existing lease.
7
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). ASU 2018-13 modifies fair value disclosure requirements, specifically around level transfers and valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities. ASU 2018-13 is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for all entities. Early adoption of all or part of ASU 2018-13 is permitted. Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the standard. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions within the guidance and making various other amendments. ASU 2019-12 is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period for which financial statements have not yet been issued. An entity that elects to early adopt in an interim period should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. In addition, an entity that early adopts must adopt all amendments of ASU 2019-12 in the same period and apply each amendment on either a retrospective modified-retrospective basis as applicable. Effective January 1, 2020, the Company elected to early adopt the standard. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). The new standard adjusts the accounting for assets held at amortized cost basis, including marketable securities accounted for as available-for-sale. The standard eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold and requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, which deferred the effective date of the new standard for certain entities. Under this ASU, the standard is effective for public business entities, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is allowed. The Company has not adopted the standard as it currently meets the designation as a smaller reporting company. The Company does not believe the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Convertible Notes Payable
In June 2018, the Company entered into a Company Funding Agreement with The Wellcome Trust, Limited (“Wellcome Trust”) to receive up to $8.0 million in gross proceeds from the issuance of a convertible note (the “2018 Convertible Note”). The Company received $2.0 million of proceeds in July 2018, $2.7 million in November 2018, $1.6 million in March 2019, and $1.6 million in April 2019.
The 2018 Convertible Note had a stated interest rate of 2% per annum above the three-month Dollar LIBOR rate, which was not payable until settlement of the principal. The note was subject to redemption upon written demand by Wellcome Trust any time after the fifth anniversary of the effective date. The principal due under the 2018 Convertible Note was convertible into the class of the Company’s stock issued in the Company’s next qualified financing or upon an event of default at a discounted conversion price between 0% and 25% of the purchase price per share of such securities issued. The accrued interest in such a circumstance would be forgiven.
At inception, the Company concluded that the 2018 Convertible Note contained a conversion option at a significant discount that was deemed to be an embedded derivative, which was required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately from the debt host. There were no debt issuance costs associated with the 2018 Convertible Note.
The Company recognized the following changes in the debt related to the 2018 Convertible Note during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 (in thousands):

In March and April 2019, all outstanding principal under the 2018 Convertible Note was converted into Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock in connection with the Company’s Series B preferred stock financing.
Note 5. Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
As of December 31, 2018, the Company had 7,539,200 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding which were redeemable and convertible by the holders under specified conditions. The redeemable convertible preferred stock was classified outside of stockholders’ equity (deficit) because the shares contained redemption features that were not solely within the control of the Company.
In March 2019, the Company authorized 5,422,845 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Company then issued and sold 4,953,758 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at an issuance price of $15.14 per share resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $75.0 million. There were $0.2 million of issuance costs associated with the Series B Preferred Stock.
In conjunction with the March 2019 issuance of Series B Preferred Stock, all outstanding principal under the 2018 Convertible Note converted into 331,344 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. In April 2019, the Company received an additional $1.6 million pursuant to the 2018 Convertible Note, which was subsequently converted into 137,743 shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
9
Upon closing of the Company’s IPO on July 2, 2019, the then-outstanding shares of the redeemable convertible preferred stock converted into common stock. There were no shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock authorized, issued or outstanding as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
Note 6. Stockholders’ Equity
Preferred Stock
On July 2, 2019, in connection with the closing of the Company’s IPO, the Company filed its amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation, which authorizes the Company to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share. There were no shares of preferred stock outstanding as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
Common Stock
As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation authorized the Company to issue 150,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share.
Holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held at all meetings of stockholders and written actions in lieu of meetings. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available, as declared by the board of directors. These dividends are subject to the preferential dividend rights of the holders of the Company’s preferred stock. Through June 30, 2020, no cash dividends have been declared or paid.
Upon completion of the Company’s IPO on July 2, 2019, all outstanding shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock converted into common stock. As of June 30, 2020, there were 26,580,533 shares of common stock outstanding.
Note 7. Net Loss per Share

The Company’s potentially dilutive securities, which include stock options and convertible preferred stock, have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share. Therefore, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same.
Prior to the IPO, the Company’s outstanding shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock contractually entitled the holders of such shares to participate in distributions but contractually did not require the holders of such shares to participate in losses of the Company. Accordingly, these shares have not been included in the denominator used to calculate net loss per share.

Common Stock Equivalents
The following common stock equivalents, presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because including them would have had an anti-dilutive impact:

Note 8. Stock-based Compensation
Stock Options
In September 2009, the Company’s board of directors approved the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”) which provided for the grant of incentive stock options to employees and non-statutory stock options to directors, consultants, and non-employees of the Company. The aggregate common shares issuable were 3,911,138 under the 2009 Plan, as amended. The 2009 Plan terminated in July 2019 effective upon the completion of the Company’s IPO. No additional options will be granted under the 2009 Plan. As of June 30, 2020, there were 3,039,491 options outstanding under the 2009 Plan.
In May 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved the 2019 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”) which became effective on June 26, 2019, the date immediately prior to the date on which the registration statement related to the IPO was declared effective by the SEC. The 2019 Plan will expire in May 2029. Under the 2019 Plan, the Company may grant incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards. There were 1,709,832 shares of the Company’s common stock initially reserved for issuance under the 2019 Plan. The number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2019 Plan automatically increases on January 1 of each calendar year, commencing on January 1, 2020 and each January 1 thereafter by 4% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or such lesser amount determined by the Company’s board of directors or the compensation committee of the board of directors. In addition, any shares of common stock underlying any awards from the 2009 Plan that are forfeited, cancelled, held back, reacquired, or otherwise terminated shall be added back to the shares of stock available for issuance under the 2019 Plan. As of June 30, 2020, there were 1,158,680 common shares available for issuance and 1,728,024 options outstanding under the 2019 Plan.
Options under the 2019 Plan generally vest based on the grantee’s continued service with the Company during a specified period following a grant as determined by the board of directors and expire ten years from the grant date. In general, awards typically vest in four years, but vesting conditions can vary based on the discretion of the Company’s board of directors.

The aggregate intrinsic values of options outstanding, exercisable, vested and expected to vest were calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of June 30, 2020.
As of June 30, 2020, there was $41.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.3 years.
Warrants
In October 2016, PureTech Health LLC, a related party (“PureTech Health”), agreed to provide management services to the Company in exchange for a warrant to purchase up to 19,998 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2018, the warrant was fully vested and PureTech Health had partially exercised the warrant to purchase 12 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The fair values of the Company’s corporate bonds are based on prices obtained from independent pricing sources. Securities with validated quotes from pricing services are reflected within Level 2, as they are primarily based on observable pricing for similar assets or other market observable inputs. Typical inputs used by these pricing services include, but are not limited to, reported trades, benchmark yields, issuer spreads, bids, offers or estimates of cash flow, prepayment spreads and default rates.
The estimated fair value and amortized cost of the Company’s short-term investments by contractual maturity are summarized as follows (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had recorded a derivative liability of $0.4 million in connection with the 2018 Convertible Note. The derivative liability was considered a Level 3 liability because its fair value measurement was based, in part, on significant inputs not observed in the market. In March and April 2019, additional derivative liabilities of $0.8 million in the aggregate were recognized in connection with the 2018 Convertible Note (see Note 4). For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized a change in fair value of derivative of $0.1 million in the consolidated statement of operations. Upon the Company’s issuance of Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock in March and April 2019, all outstanding principal under the 2018 Convertible Note was converted into redeemable convertible preferred stock.
There was no derivative liability recorded as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies
Leases
The Company entered into an agreement to lease approximately 7,050 square feet of office space in Boston, Massachusetts (“Original Premises”) that began in December 2018 and had an original expiry in February 2023. In January 2020, the Company entered into an amended agreement (“Amended Lease Agreement”) to gain access to approximately 4,175 square feet of additional office space (“Expansion Premises”) beginning in March 2020, and to extend the maturity of the agreement for the Original Premises to December 2023. The Amended Lease Agreement provides for future minimum annual rental payments as defined within the agreement. Under the terms of the amended agreement, the Company is required to maintain a cash balance of approximately $0.2 million to secure a letter of credit associated with this lease. The amount was classified as restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The amended agreement also provides for approximately $0.1 million in leasehold incentives which may be applied to base rent or improvements to the Expansion Premises, subject to limitations.
The Company determined the Amended Lease Agreement represented a lease modification, and the Original Premises and Expansion Premises were identified as separate lease components. The extension of maturity with respect to the Original Premises was treated as a modification not accounted for as a separate contract, in which the lease classification was reassessed and the lease liability was remeasured. The effect of the remeasurement, in the amount of $0.4 million, was recorded as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset as of February 1, 2020, the effective date of the modification. The addition of the Expansion Premises was accounted for as a separate contract which granted the Company an additional right of use not included in the original lease, in which the lease payments increased commensurate with the standalone price for the additional right of use. As the leasehold incentives were not paid or payable at commencement, the Company will account for the incentives once the contingency is resolved.
13
In February 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to lease approximately 5,050 square feet of office space, and furniture within the office space, in Carmel, Indiana (“Indiana Lease Agreement”), which began in June 2020 and expires in July 2023, with the option to renew for an additional three-year term. In addition, the agreement provides an option to purchase the office furniture at the expiration of the agreement.
The office space and office furniture within the Indiana Lease Agreement were each determined to represent separate lease components. Consideration for the contract was allocated to each lease component based on their relative stand-alone selling price. The options to renew the lease for an additional three-year term as well as purchase the office furniture at the expiration of the agreement were excluded from the determination of lease liabilities arising from obtaining the ROU assets, as they were not considered probable of being exercised at commencement.
For each of the lease agreements entered into or modified, the Company identified certain non-lease components. Lease and non-lease components were combined into a single lease component. In addition, all identified leases were assessed as operating leases.
As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a term equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment in determining the present value of lease payments for each identified lease at the lease commencement date.
In addition to the lease liabilities arising from ROU assets recognized upon adoption of ASC 842, Leases (see Note 2), the Company recognized approximately $1.4 million in incremental lease liabilities arising from obtaining ROU assets as a result of the Amended Lease Agreement and Indiana Lease Agreement.

Intellectual Property License with Eli Lilly and Company
In May 2012, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement (the “Lilly License Agreement”), with Eli Lilly and Company (“Eli Lilly”), pursuant to which Eli Lilly assigned to the Company all of its rights to certain patents (now expired), regulatory documentation, data records and materials related to xanomeline. The Company is also entitled to sublicense or otherwise transfer the rights granted in connection with the Lilly License Agreement.
Under the Lilly License Agreement, the Company is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, manufacture, commercialize and seek and maintain regulatory approval for xanomeline, in any formulation, for use in humans.
The Company paid Eli Lilly an upfront payment of $0.1 million and has agreed to make milestone payments to Eli Lilly of up to an aggregate of $16 million upon the achievement of specified regulatory milestones and up to an aggregate of $54 million in commercial milestones. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay Eli Lilly tiered royalties, at rates in the low to mid single-digit percentages, on the worldwide net sales of any commercialized product on a country-by-country basis until the expiration of the applicable royalty term, which is the longer of six years from the date of first commercial sale of each licensed product within a country or data exclusivity in such country. During the royalty term, Eli Lilly is prohibited from granting any third party rights to the patents, regulatory documentation, data records and materials that have been licensed to us under the Lilly License Agreement.
The Lilly License Agreement will expire on the later of (i) the expiration of the last-to-expire royalty term on a licensed product-by-licensed product basis or (ii) the date on which the Company has made all milestone payments pursuant to the terms of the Lilly License Agreement, unless terminated earlier by the parties. In no event will the term of the Lilly License Agreement exceed 15 years past the anniversary of the first commercial sale of a xanomeline product. The Company may terminate the Lilly License Agreement for any reason with proper prior notice to Eli Lilly. Either party may terminate the Lilly License Agreement upon an uncured material breach by the other party.
The initial upfront payment of $0.1 million was expensed when incurred in May 2012. As of June 30, 2020, no milestones have been reached and, accordingly, no milestone payments have been made.
Intellectual Property License with PureTech Health
In March 2011, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement (the “Patent License Agreement”) with PureTech Health, pursuant to which PureTech Health granted the Company an exclusive license to patent rights relating to combinations of a muscarinic activator with a muscarinic inhibitor for the treatment of central nervous system disorders.
In connection with the Patent License Agreement, the Company has agreed to make milestone payments to PureTech Health of up to an aggregate of $10 million upon the achievement of specified development and regulatory milestones. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay PureTech Health low single-digit royalties on the worldwide net sales of any commercialized product covered by the licenses granted under the Patent License Agreement. In the event that the Company sublicenses any of the patent rights granted under the Patent License Agreement, the Company will be obligated to pay PureTech Health royalties within the range of 15% to 25% on any income we receive from the sublicensee, excluding royalties.
15
The Company may terminate the Patent License Agreement for any reason with proper prior notice to PureTech Health. Either party may terminate the Patent License Agreement upon an uncured material breach by the other party.
The Company incurred no expenses related to the Patent License Agreement provided by PureTech Health during the six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019. The Company had no outstanding liabilities to PureTech Health related to the Patent License Agreement as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Indemnification
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide for general indemnification obligations. The Company’s exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves claims that may be made against the Company in the future but have not yet been made. To date, the Company has not paid any claims or been required to defend any action related to its indemnification obligations. However, the Company may incur charges in the future as a result of these indemnification obligations.
Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may have certain contingent liabilities that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. The Company accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made, and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated.
Litigation
The Company is not a party to any litigation and does not have contingency reserves established for any litigation liabilities as of June 30, 2020.
Note 11. Related Party Transactions
PureTech Health Management Consulting Services and Overhead Agreement
The Company previously engaged PureTech Health, a related party, to provide, among other things, management expertise, strategic advice, administrative support, computer and telecommunications services and office infrastructure.

In addition, PureTech Health periodically invoiced the Company for out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with providing such business services.
The Company incurred general and administrative costs for management services provided by PureTech Health totaling less than $0.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019.
