Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures | 7. Investment in S & I Ophthalmic On September 30, 2013, the Company and Sun Pharmaceutical Subsidiary entered into a Limited Liability Company Agreement (“Sun LLC Agreement”) which governs the affairs and the conduct of business of S & I Ophthalmic, a joint venture to develop therapies for the treatment of ocular diseases. S & I Ophthalmic leverages experience and technology from both the Company and Sun Pharmaceutical. Both the Company and Sun Pharmaceutical Subsidiary made an initial capital contribution of $5,000 in October 2013 for a 50% membership interest in S & I Ophthalmic. In cases in which the board of managers of S & I Ophthalmic (“S & I Board”) determines that additional capital contributions are necessary in order for S & I Ophthalmic to conduct business and comply with its obligations under the ECC (Note 3), each of the Company and Sun Pharmaceutical Subsidiary have committed to making additional capital contributions to S&I Ophthalmic subject to certain limits defined in the agreement. Each has the right, but not the obligation, to make additional capital contributions above the defined limits when and if solicited by the S & I Board. Beginning on the seventh anniversary of the effective date of the Sun LLC Agreement, and upon the second anniversary thereafter, the Company, as well as Sun Pharmaceutical Subsidiary, may make a cash offer to purchase all of the other’s interest in S & I Ophthalmic. Upon receipt of such an offer, the other party must either agree to tender its interests at the offered price or submit a counteroffer at a price higher than the original offer. Such offer and counteroffer may continue until one party agrees to the other’s price. S & I Ophthalmic shall be governed by the S & I Board which shall have four members. We, as well as Sun Pharmaceutical Subsidiary, have the initial right to appoint two members to the S & I Board. For so long as Sun Pharmaceutical Subsidiary and/or any of its affiliates is a member of S & I Ophthalmic and holds a percentage interest in S & I Ophthalmic that is at least equal to the percentage held by the Company and/or its affiliates, Sun Pharmaceutical Subsidiary will have the sole authority to select and appoint on behalf of S & I Ophthalmic each of the representatives of the S & I Ophthalmic on the ECC committees, and one such appointee will be an “Empowered Representative” of the S & I Ophthalmic under the terms of the ECC with final authority to resolve certain ECC committee disputes. | 6.
