medac Matter In April 2021, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Delcath Systems Ltd, issued to medac GmbH, a privately held, multi-national pharmaceutical company based in Germany (“medac”), an invoice for a €1 million milestone payment under a License, Supply and Marketing Agreement dated December 10, 2018 (the “medac Agreement”) between medac and the Company. The medac Agreement provided to medac the exclusive right to market and sell CHEMOSAT in all member states of the European Union, Norway, Liechtenstein, Switzerland and the United Kingdom for which the Company was entitled to a combination of upfront and success-based milestone payments as well as a fixed transfer price per unit of CHEMOSAT and specified royalties. In response to medac’s subsequent dispute and non-payment of the invoice, on October 12, 2021, the Company notified medac in writing that it was terminating the medac Agreement due to medac’s nonpayment of the €1 million milestone payment, with the effective date of termination of the medac Agreement being April 12, 2022. medac disputed having an obligation to make the milestone payment and demanded withdrawal of the termination notice. In response to medac’s continued failure to make the milestone payment and its demand for the Company to withdraw its termination notice, on December 16, 2021, the Company initiated an arbitration proceeding pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures of the medac Agreement. Thereafter, on December 30, 2021, the Company received a letter from medac stating that, due to the Company’s failure to withdraw the termination notice, medac was terminating the medac Agreement with immediate effect. In a separate letter, medac agreed to orderly transition through February 28, 2022 , in order to minimize the impact of any termination on patients and physicians. The Company agreed to purchase inventory held at medac in March 2022 for approximately $0.2 million. On December 30, 2022, the parties reached a final settlement of the matter and the Company agreed pay medac a royalty on sales of CHEMOSAT units over a defined minimum for a period of five years or until a maximum payment has been reached. The settlement terms also contain a minimum annual payment of $0.2 million in the event the annual royalty payment does not reach the agreed minimum payment amount. The Company has estimated the fair value of the settlement to be $1.3 million as of March 31, 2023 and recorded $1.1 million as other liabilities, non-current and $0.2 million as accrued expenses on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2023. Lachman Consulting Services, Inc On January 24, 2023, Lachman Consultant Services, Inc (“Lachman”) served the Company with a Complaint alleging that Delcath owes Lachman approximately $0.9 million in unpaid consulting fees plus interest, costs and attorneys’ fees. The lawsuit is Lachman Consultant Services, Inc. v. Delcath Systems, Inc., Index No. 650103-2023 (New York Supreme Court, New York County. The Company filed an answer to Lachman’s Complaint on February 22, 2023. On March 17, 2023, Delcath responded to Lachman’s March 3, 2023 Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. On March 20, 2023, the Court denied Lachman’s request that the case be moved into the Commercial Division. The current return date of Lachman’s motion for partial summary judgment is March 31, 2023. The dispute arises from a July 22, 2021 agreement between Lachman and Delcath under which Lachman was to provide assistance to the Company in regard to preparing for a FDA inspection and good manufacturing practices, training and support. In August 2022, the Company disputed $0.3 million of charges from Lachman As of March 31, 2023, the Company has accrued $0.9 million as accrued liability on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company plans to vigorously defend this lawsuit and has reserved its rights to dispute all of Lachman charges as the litigation proceeds.
