CIRM GRANT

NOTE 6. CIRM GRANT

 

In November 2020, California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (“CIRM”) awarded the Company $2.3 million in support of the research project related to a monoclonal antibody that depletes blood stem cells and enables chemotherapy-free transplants. The award is payable to the Company upon achievement of milestones over the next three years that are primarily based on patients’ enrollment to the Company’s clinical trials. Funds received under this grant may only be used for allowable project costs specifically identified in connection with the CIRM-funded project. Such costs can include but are not limited to salary for personnel, itemized supplies, consultants, and itemized clinical study costs. Under the terms of the grant, both CIRM and the Company will co-fund the research project and the amount of the Company’s co-funding requirement is predetermined as a part of the award. Under the terms of the CIRM grant, the Company is obligated to pay royalties and licensing fees based on 0.1% of net sales of CIRM-funded product candidates or CIRM-funded technology per $1.0 million of CIRM grant. As an alternative to revenue sharing, the Company has the option to convert the award to a loan. In the event the Company exercises its right to convert the award to a loan, it would be obligated to repay the loan within ten business days of making such election. Repayment amounts vary dependent on when the award is converted to a loan, ranging from 60% of the award granted to amounts received plus interest at the rate of the three-month LIBOR rate plus 25% per annum. Since the Company may be required to repay some or all of the amounts awarded by CIRM, the Company accounted for this award as a liability. Given the uncertainty in amounts due upon repayment, the Company has recorded amounts received without any discount or interest recorded, and upon determination of amounts that would become due, the Company will adjust accordingly. As of December 31, 2020, the Company met a milestone and had recorded $0.6 million in other receivables for the milestone that was met and $0.6 million in other long-term liabilities related to this grant. The Company received an aggregate of $0.6 million from CIRM in January and March 2021. As of December 31, 2021, the Company recorded $0.6 million in other long-term liabilities related to this grant. As of December 31, 2021 $1.7 million is available for future distribution to the Company under the grant upon achievement of milestones.
