Note C—Asset Purchase Agreement

 

On December 17, 2014 the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire certain intellectual property and research and development materials from GSK, which the Company renamed RVT-101, in exchange for the following consideration:

 

·

$5,000,000 in cash paid at closing, December 17, 2014;                                                                                                                                

 

·

$5,000,000 in a deferred payment payable upon the earlier of (a) the Company having determined in good faith that it has received definitive guidance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the ‘‘FDA’’) that a single Phase 3 trial with RVT-101 for Alzheimer’s disease will be sufficient for new drug application (‘‘NDA’’) approval, (b) filing of an NDA for RVT-101 for Alzheimer’s disease incorporating data from one Phase 3 trial for Alzheimer’s disease, and (c) the Company not having dosed the first patient in a second Phase 3 trial for RVT-101 within six (6) months following the dosing of the first patient in the Company’s first Phase 3 trial for RVT-101.  Should the FDA require the Company to complete additional clinical work prior to commencement of the first Phase 3 trial, the Company will have no obligation to make this deferred payment to GSK;

 

·

$35,000,000, $25,000,000 and $10,000,000 upon approval of RVT-101 in the United States, the European Union and Japan, respectively;

 

·

A one-time payment of $85,000,000 for the first calendar year in which the Company achieves global net sales of $1,200,000,000 of RVT-101; and

 

·

a fixed royalty of 12.5% on annual net product sales in certain territories, subject to reduction on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis, on account of expiration of patent and regulatory exclusivity or upon generic entry.

 

For the consideration above, the Company also received a small quantity of inventory of RVT-101, and certain research and development historical records.  The Company did not hire, or receive, any GSK workforce or employees working on RVT-101, or any research, clinical or manufacturing equipment.  Additionally, the Company did not assume from GSK any contracts, licenses or agreements between GSK and any third party with respect to RVT-101.  The Company will need to independently develop all clinical processes and procedures for the Phase 3 clinical trial through the use of internal and external resources once appropriate and acceptable resources have been identified and obtained.

 

As the intellectual property and inventory of RVT-101 acquired had no alternative future use on the date of acquisition, the Company recorded the $5,000,000 cash payment as research and development expense at the date of the transaction.  In addition, the Company assessed deferred payment payable as probable to be made (see Note I) and recorded an additional $5,000,000 amount as research and development expense at the date of the transaction.
