Note 6 – License Agreements During the year ended May 31, 2016, the Company executed a license agreement with a third-party licensor covering the licensor’s “system know-how” technology with respect to the Company’s use of proprietary cell lines to manufacture new PRO 140 material. The agreement required payment of £600,000 (approximately US$915,000) by December 15, 2015, which was timely paid during the year ended May 31, 2016. In connection with this license agreement, the Company became the primary obligor of an additional £600,000 (approximately US$807,000 utilizing current exchange rates), which was timely paid by June 30, 2016. During the year ended May 31, 2016, the Company accrued an additional expense of £600,000 (approximately US$870,000) in connection with the June 30, 2016 obligation. Future annual license fees and royalty rate will vary depending on whether we manufacture PRO 140 ourselves, utilize the third-party licensor as a contract manufacturer, or utilize an independent party as a contract manufacturer. The licensor does not charge an annual license fee of £300,000 (approximately US$432,000) when it serves as the manufacturer. |
