License and Collaboration Agreements

Harbour License Agreement

The Company and Harbour BioMed US Inc. (“Harbour”) were party to a license and collaboration agreement pursuant to which Harbour granted to Cullinan an exclusive license for the development, manufacturing and commercialization of HBM7008 (CLN-418) in the U.S. In August 2024, following a review of the data from the Phase 1 clinical trial of CLN-418, the Company notified Harbour of its decision to terminate the license and collaboration agreement, effective November 2024. In connection with the termination, the Company discontinued development of CLN-418 and returned development and commercial rights for CLN-418 to Harbour.

Taiho Agreements

Cullinan has a co-development agreement with an affiliate of Taiho Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd ("Taiho"), pursuant to which the Company is collaborating to develop zipalertinib and has the option to co-commercialize zipalertinib in the U.S. Development costs for zipalertinib are shared equally between Taiho and the Company with each party receiving 50% of any future pre-tax profits from potential U.S. sales of zipalertinib.

The Company concluded that the co-development agreement with Taiho is a collaborative arrangement because Cullinan is an active participant in the development of zipalertinib. Payments made to or received from Taiho for zipalertinib development activities after the execution of the co-development agreement are recorded within research and development expenses and general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $5.6 million and $6.0 million, respectively, related to its share of research and development costs incurred by Taiho. The Company recorded $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 related to its share of general and administrative costs incurred by Taiho. Cullinan incurred $1.4 million and $1.9 million of costs that were reimbursable by Taiho for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which were recorded as a reduction to research and development expenses. The net amounts of $4.7 million and $6.0 million due to Taiho as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, were recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

Cullinan is also eligible to receive up to $130.0 million from Taiho tied to epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 non-small-cell lung cancer U.S. regulatory milestones.

Other License and Collaboration Agreements

The Company has certain payment obligations that are contingent upon future events under various other license and collaboration agreements. Under these agreements, Cullinan will be required to make milestone payments upon successful completion and achievement of certain intellectual property, clinical, regulatory, and sales milestones and will be required to make royalty payments in connection with the sale of products developed under these agreements. During each of the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no milestones were achieved under the Company’s other license and collaboration agreements.
