Ligand Pharmaceuticals Incorporated  (&#8220;Ligand&#8221;) announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Palvella Therapeutics, Inc. (&#8220;Palvella&#8221;) to accelerate Phase 3 development of QTORIN&#8482; rapamycin for the treatment of Microcystic Lymphatic Malformations (&#8220;Microcystic LMs&#8221;). According to the terms of the Amendment  No. 2 to Development Funding and Royalties Agreement, dated as of November 29, 2023 (the &#8220;Amendment&#8221;), between Ligand and Palvella, Palvella received an upfront payment of $5 million from Ligand. In return for the upfront payment, among other contractual changes, the tiered royalty payable by Palvella to Ligand was increased to between 8.0% and 9.8% based on annual aggregate worldwide net sales of QTORIN rapamycin, Palvella&#8217;s right to reduce the royalty rates by making payments in certain circumstances was eliminated, and, in the event that Ligand&#8217;s right to the royalties is later held to not be a sale, Ligand received a security interest in such royalties and Palvella&#8217;s patents and know-how necessary to commercialize QTORIN rapamycin worldwide. Ligand was also granted an option to acquire in the future a single-digit royalty interest on U.S. sales of each novel topical product candidate generated from Palvella&#8217;s QTORIN platform. Such option terminates in the event of a change of control or initial public offering of Palvella or its parent.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:27pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">QTORIN rapamycin, the lead product candidate from Palvella&#8217;s QTORIN platform, is a novel, 3.9% rapamycin anhydrous gel currently under development for the treatment of Microcystic LMs and other serious, functionally debilitating skin diseases driven by the overactivation of the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway.

The U.S. FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to QTORIN rapamycin for the treatment of Microcystic LMs in November 2023. Palvella announced that based on the positive Phase 2 results and a productive end-of-Phase 2 meeting with FDA, Palvella plans to conduct a pivotal Phase 3 study in approximately 50 adult and pediatric patients. In addition to Breakthrough Therapy Designation, the FDA previously granted Fast Track Designation and Orphan Drug Designation to QTORIN rapamycin for the treatment of Microcystic LMs.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:27pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The above summary of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment which will be filed as an exhibit to Ligand&#8217;s Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed with respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:27pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Todd Davis, Ligand&#8217;s Chief Executive Officer, is a member of Palvella&#8217;s board of directors.
