| License Agreements | 4. LICENSE AGREEMENTS Sopharma License and Supply Agreements We are party to a license agreement, or the Sopharma License Agreement, and a supply agreement, or the Sopharma Supply Agreement, with Sopharma. Pursuant to the Sopharma License Agreement, we were granted access to all available manufacturing, efficacy and safety data related to cytisinicline. Additional rights granted under the Sopharma License Agreement include the exclusive use of, and the right to sublicense, certain Sopharma patent rights and the trademark Tabex in all territories described in the Sopharma License Agreement. Under the Sopharma License Agreement, we agreed to pay a nonrefundable license fee. In addition, we agreed to make certain royalty payments equal to a mid-single digit percentage of all net sales of Tabex branded products in our territory during the term of the Sopharma License Agreement, including those sold by a third party pursuant to any sublicense which may be granted by us. We have agreed to coordinate with Sopharma in the defense against any actual or threatened infringement claims with respect to Tabex branded products. The Sopharma License Agreement will terminate under customary termination provisions including bankruptcy or insolvency and material breach. To date, any amounts paid to Sopharma pursuant to the Sopharma License Agreement have been immaterial. We communicated to Sopharma that we had concerns regarding their ability to pass an FDA pre-approval inspection and that if those concerns were not resolved, we planned to engage third-party manufacturers, and include such manufacturers in our NDA, until such time that Sopharma is able to pass an FDA inspection. In June 2025, we submitted our NDA, which included third-party manufacturers. Sopharma has alleged that our engagement of third-party manufacturers is a breach of our agreement, which we have disputed and have proposed steps to resolve.
Share Purchase Agreement
On May 14, 2015, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Sopharma to acquire 75% of the outstanding shares of Extab for $2.0 million in cash and $2.0 million in a deferred payment, contingent on regulatory approval of cytisinicline by the FDA or the European Medicines Agency. The fair value of the contingent consideration on the acquisition date was nil. The contingent consideration liability is measured at fair value in our financial statements.
As of March 31, 2026, the fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $1.3 million. We recognized a gain of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and a loss of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. |
