In July, mBlox, Inc. (“mBlox”) was acquired by CLX Communications AB. In connection with the acquisition, mBlox prepaid the outstanding principal balance of $8.6 million on two of its venture loans, plus interest, end-of-term payments, prepayment fees and a success fee.
In September, LifePrint Group, Inc. (“LifePrint”) prepaid the outstanding principal balance of $1.6 million on its venture loan, plus interest, end-of-term payment and prepayment fee. Horizon continues to hold warrants in LifePrint.

Refinanced Principal Balances, Early Principal Payoffs, and Principal Payments Received
As noted above, Horizon experienced early pay-offs during the third quarter of 2016 totaling $17.0 million, compared to early pay-offs totaling $8.6 million during the second quarter of 2016. During the third quarter of 2016, Horizon received regularly scheduled principal payments on investments totaling $10.3 million compared to regularly scheduled principal payments totaling $13.8 million during the second quarter of 2016.
Commitments
During the quarter ended September 30, 2016, Horizon closed new loan commitments totaling $17.0 million to two companies, similar to the quarter ended June 30, 2016, wherein Horizon closed new loan commitments totaling $17.5 million to four companies.
Pipeline
As of September 30, 2016, Horizon's unfunded loan approvals and commitments (“Committed Backlog”), all priced at floating interest rates, were $19.5 million to three companies. This compares to a Committed Backlog of $3.0 million to one company as of June 30, 2016. While Horizon's portfolio companies have discretion whether to draw down such commitments, the right of a portfolio company to draw down its commitment is often subject to achievement of specific milestones and other conditions to borrowing.
Warrant and Equity Portfolio
As of September 30, 2016, Horizon held a portfolio of warrant and equity positions in 87 portfolio companies, including 74 private companies, which provides the potential for future additional returns to Horizon's shareholders.
