Item 1.01. |
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
|
Royalty Interest Purchase and Sale Agreement
On June 27, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiary Eidos Therapeutics, Inc. (“Eidos”)
entered into a Royalty Interest Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Acoramidis Royalty SPV, LP (“ARS”), as a purchaser and the purchaser representative (in such capacity, the “Purchaser Representative”), and LSI Financing
Fund, LP, as a purchaser (together with ARS as a purchaser, the “Purchasers”).
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Eidos sold to the Purchasers certain of Eidos’ right to receive certain royalty payments (“Purchased
Royalty Payment”) on net sales of certain products containing acoramidis (the “Licensed Products”) made in the European Union and all member and extension states of the European Patent Organization (the “Licensed Territory”) under (i) an exclusive
license agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024, by and among Bayer Consumer Care AG (“Bayer”), Eidos and the other subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, as amended from time to time (the “Bayer License Agreement”) and (ii) an amended and restated
license agreement, effective as of June 30, 2023, by and between Eidos and one of the other Company’s subsidiaries, BridgeBio International GmbH. In consideration for the sale of the Purchased Royalty Payment, the Purchasers agreed to pay Eidos $300
million in cash (“Purchase Price”), which was funded in full on the Closing Date. The Purchasers’ rights to Purchased Royalty Payment are subject to (a) an annual cap equal to 60% of all royalty payments paid by Bayer to Eidos and its affiliates
under the Bayer License Agreement on the first $500,000,000 of annual net sales of Licensed Products in the Licensed Territory under the Bayer License Agreement and (b) an initial hard cap equal to 145% of the Purchase Price.
In addition, the Company and Eidos granted the Purchaser Representative, for the benefit of the Purchasers, a security interest in
specific assets related to the Purchased Royalty Payment. The Purchase Agreement also contains certain representations and warranties, indemnification obligations, events of default and other provisions that are customary for transactions of this
nature.
Upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company, the successor entity has an option to either (a) assume the obligations of the
Company and/or Eidos under the Purchase Agreement or (b) pay the Purchasers the Adjusted Amount, upon payment of which no further payments will be due to the Purchasers or the Purchaser Representative under the Purchase Agreement.
The description of the Purchase Agreement contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the complete text of Purchase Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to a subsequent periodic report of the Company.
