Purchase Commitments In April 2024, we entered into a Commercial Supply Agreement with Corden Pharma CHENÔVE SAS (“Corden”), under which we engaged Corden to manufacture and supply certain products related to XACDURO® and to perform certain services and studies. Under the agreement, we committed to minimum purchase commitments through December 31, 2027. As of December 31, 2024, we have approximately $6.7 million U.S. dollar equivalent in outstanding purchase commitments under the agreement for the year 2024, which will be utilized in early 2025. We also have approximately $6.5 million, $7.3 million and $5.9 million U.S. dollar equivalent in purchase commitments under the agreement for the years 2025, 2026 and 2027, respectively. Legal Proceedings From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings except as discussed below. On February 15, 2022, La Jolla received a paragraph IV notice of certification (the “First Notice Letter”) from Gland Pharma Limited (“Gland”) advising that Gland had submitted an Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) to the FDA seeking approval to manufacture, use or sell a generic version of GIAPREZA® in the U.S. prior to the expiration of U.S. Patent Nos.: 9,220,745; 9,572,856; 9,867,863; 10,028,995; 10,335,451; 10,493,124; 10,500,247; 10,548,943; 11,096,983; and 11,219,662 (the “GIAPREZA® Patents”), which are listed in the FDA’s Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations (the “Orange Book”). The First Notice Letter alleges that the GIAPREZA® Patents are invalid, unenforceable and/or will not be infringed by the commercial manufacture, use or sale of the generic product described in Gland’s ANDA. On March 29, 2022, La Jolla filed a complaint for patent infringement of the GIAPREZA® Patents against Gland and certain related entities in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in response to Gland’s ANDA filing. In accordance with the Hatch-Waxman Act, because GIAPREZA® is a new chemical entity and La Jolla filed a complaint for patent infringement within 45 days of receipt of the First Notice Letter, the FDA cannot approve Gland’s ANDA any earlier than 7.5 years from the approval of the GIAPREZA® NDA unless the District Court finds that all of the asserted claims of the patents-in-suit are invalid, unenforceable and/or not infringed. On February 22, 2023, La Jolla received a paragraph IV notice of certification (the “Second Notice Letter”) from Gland advising that Gland had amended its ANDA filing to include a paragraph IV certification alleging that all claims of the newly-issued and Orange Book-listed U.S. Patent No. 11,559,559 (“the ’559 Patent”), which covers GIAPREZA®, are invalid, unenforceable and/or not infringed. On March 22, 2023, La Jolla filed a First Amended Complaint in this litigation adding Gland’s marketing and distribution partners for its ANDA angiotensin II product, Fresenius Kabi USA LLC and Fresenius Kabi SwissBiosim GmbH (collectively, the “Fresenius Kabi Defendants”), as co-defendants. On April 7, 2023, La Jolla filed a Second Amended Complaint in response to the Second Notice Letter, adding claims that the manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale, or import of Gland’s ANDA angiotensin II product will infringe the ’559 Patent. On November 14, 2023, La Jolla filed a Third Amended Complaint adding additional infringement claims against the Fresenius Kabi Defendants. On February 18, 2025, La Jolla, as well as The George Washington University (collectively, with the La Jolla entities, the “Plaintiffs”) entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Gland and the Fresenius Kabi Defendants (collectively, “Defendants”) resolving the Hatch-Waxman Act concerning Gland’s ANDA filing. Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Plaintiffs granted Defendants a perpetual, royalty-free and fully paid-up, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable right and license solely to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, import, and/or distribute the product that is subject to Gland’s ANDA in the United States commencing in the early 2030s, subject to certain exceptions as is customary in these type of agreements. As required by law, the settlement is subject to review by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission. Indemnifications and Other Contingencies In the ordinary course of business, we may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to vendors, directors, officers, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements, services to be provided by us, our negligence or willful misconduct, violations of law, or intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with directors and certain officers and employees that will require us, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors, officers, or employees. No material demands have been made upon us to provide indemnification under such agreements, and thus, there are no claims that we are aware of that could have a material effect in our consolidated financial statements. We also maintain director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from our obligation to indemnify our directors. To date, we have not incurred any material costs and, as of December 31, 2024, we have not accrued any liabilities in the consolidated financial statements as a result of these provisions.
