Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions Third Security and Affiliates The Company reimburses Third Security for certain administrative services and out-of-pocket expenses incurred on the Company's behalf. The total amount of expenses reimbursed by the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was $41 and $24, respectively. The Manager of Third Security is also the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. Prior to 2015, the CEO did not receive compensation for his services as CEO, and as a result, the Company recorded $470 in compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 based on the estimated salary and benefits appropriate for the role. The Company anticipates that the CEO will participate in the Company's executive annual incentive compensation plan beginning in 2015. Transactions with ECC Parties In addition to entities controlled by Third Security, any entity in which the Company holds equity securities, including securities received as upfront or milestone consideration, and which also are party to a collaboration with the Company are considered to be related parties. In March 2015, the Company purchased 13,939,392 shares of common stock of AmpliPhi Biosciences Corporation ("AmpliPhi"), a collaborator, and 3,484,848 warrants for $2,300. Of the total purchase price, $1,979 was allocated to the value of the shares of common stock and $321 was allocated to the value of the warrants. The AmpliPhi warrants have been included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet with a value of $756 as of March 31, 2015. In conjunction with the ECC with ZIOPHARM (Note 5), the Company agreed to purchase up to an additional $50,000 of common stock in conjunction with securities offerings that may be conducted by ZIOPHARM in the future, subject to certain conditions and limitations. Between February 2011 and October 2013, the Company purchased an aggregate of $30,982 of ZIOPHARM securities. In February 2015, the Company purchased an additional $12,600 of ZIOPHARM securities. See Note 19 for additional discussion regarding this commitment. The Company entered into an ECC with Histogenics Corporation ("Histogenics") in September 2014 and received a $10,000 convertible promissory note as upfront consideration. The note originally matured in September 2015 and accrued interest at 6.0% per annum. Upon the closing of Histogenics' IPO in December 2014, the note, with accrued interest, was converted to Histogenics common stock. Additionally, the Company purchased 1,772,364 shares of Histogenics common stock at $11.00 per share in the IPO. In conjunction with the ECC with Oragenics (Note 5), the Company is entitled to, at its election, purchase up to 30% of securities offerings that may be conducted by Oragenics in the future, subject to certain conditions and limitations. In November 2013, the Company purchased 1,100,000 shares of Oragenics common stock at $2.50 per share.
