On October 10, 2022, the Company and Société des Produits Nestlé SA, a société anonyme organized under the laws of Switzerland (NHSc), as successor-in-interest to NESTEC Ltd., entered into an amended and restated supply agreement (the “Supply Agreement”), which amends and restates the supply agreement, dated December 19, 2018, entered into by the Company and NESTEC Ltd. Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, NHSc and its affiliates will exclusively purchase nicotinamide riboside chloride (NRCL) from the Company and NHSc and its affiliates will have the non-exclusive right to manufacture, market, distribute, and sell products using NRCL for human use in the (i) medical nutritional, (ii) functional food and beverage and (iii) multi-ingredient dietary supplements categories sold under one of the NHSc brands (the “Approved Products”) world-wide, but excluding certain countries and ingredient combinations. The term of the Supply Agreement is five years, unless earlier terminated, and is subject to automatic extensions provided certain minimum purchases by NHSc are met.

As consideration for the rights granted to NHSc under the Supply Agreement, NHSc agreed to an initial purchase commitment of NRCL equal to approximately $2.0 million. During the fourth quarter of 2022, NHSc purchased the full consideration under this commitment, of which $1.7 million relates to a bill-and-hold arrangement. The Supply Agreement also provides for NHSc to pay a royalty to the Company at tiered percentage rates in the low-single digits based on worldwide annual net sales of the Approved Products, subject to certain deductions. Furthermore, the Supply Agreement provides for NHSc to pay the Company two separate one-time milestone payments in the low seven figures depending on whether NHSc achieves certain net sales targets in any contract year. No royalty or milestone payments were received during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Under the Supply Agreement, the Company will continue to recognize the deferred revenue balance received in connection with the original Nestec Ltd. agreement utilizing the output method. Deferred revenue will be recognized by the Company based on the percentage of NRCL kilograms delivered to-date compared to the total forecasted NRCL kilograms to be delivered for the duration of the contract term including renewal options as estimated by the Company. Revenue recognized from deferred revenue and the corresponding deferred revenue balance for the years indicated is as follows:
