On October 16, 2024, Lexicon entered into an exclusive license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Viatris Inc. (“Viatris”) for the development and commercialization of sotagliflozin in all markets outside of the United States and Europe (the “Licensed Territory”). Under the License Agreement, Lexicon granted Viatris an exclusive, royalty-bearing right and license under its patent rights and know-how to develop and commercialize sotagliflozin in the Licensed Territory and received an upfront payment of $25 million. Lexicon is also eligible to receive (a) up to an aggregate of $12 million upon the achievement of specified regulatory milestones, (b) up to an aggregate of $185 million upon the achievement of specified sales milestones and (c) tiered royalties ranging from low double-digit to upper-teens percentages of annual net sales of sotagliflozin in the Licensed Territory.

Viatris is responsible for all regulatory and commercialization activities for sotagliflozin in the Licensed Territory as well as conducting any additional clinical trials required to obtain such regulatory approvals. Lexicon and Viatris will enter into a manufacturing and supply agreement pursuant to which Lexicon will supply Viatris’s development and commercial requirements of sotagliflozin, and Viatris will pay an agreed upon transfer price for such supply.
