Autoliv Manufacturing and Supply Agreement

11. Autoliv Manufacturing and Supply Agreement

In November 2007, we entered into a Manufacturing and Supply Agreement, or the Manufacture Agreement, with Autoliv relating to the commercial supply of chemical heat packages that can be incorporated into our Staccato device, or the Chemical Heat Packages. Autoliv had developed these Chemical Heat Packages for us pursuant to a development agreement between Autoliv and us.

Subject to certain exceptions, Autoliv has agreed to manufacture, assemble and test the Chemical Heat Packages solely for us in conformance with our specifications. We pay Autoliv a specified purchase price, which varies based on annual quantities we order, per Chemical Heat Package delivered. Upon termination of the Manufacture Agreement, we were to retain full ownership of the production equipment for commercial manufacture of the Chemical Heat Packages developed for us by Autoliv, and Autoliv’s obligations under the Manufacture Agreement will terminate in full. In December 2014, we amended the Manufacture Agreement with Autoliv, or the 2014 Amendment through which we and Autoliv are extending the Manufacturing Agreement through 2018. In addition, we have the right to engage a second source supplier and implement a manufacturing line transfer from Autoliv to manufacture and supply the Chemical Heat Packages to us or our licensees.

We have contracted with Autoliv, through a third-party supplier, to build one additional manufacturing cell to manufacture chemical heat packages at a cost of approximately $2.4 million, or the New Cell. The New Cell was expected to be installed at Autoliv with the cell currently being utilized by Autoliv, or the Original Cell, to be installed at a second source supplier. Due to the Original Cell no longer being utilized and the uncertainty of the timing of engaging a second source supplier (see Note 12), we recorded additional cost of goods sold of $1,381,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2015 due to the impairment of the Original Cell. The $1,381,000 impairment reduced the carrying amount of this cell to $0, which we believe is the fair value of this equipment and is a level 3 fair value measurement. The equipment is specialized and was developed specifically for the manufacture of ADASUVE and would be of limited, if any, utility to a third-party. Thus, we concluded that given the decreased projections of ADASUVE sales and the related decline in production noted below in Note 12, as well as the limited ability to sell this equipment, that its fair value is $0. The New Cell will be utilized if and when commercial production resumes. We did not record additional impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2016.
