Obligations Under the Terms of Other Agreements The Company signed with its bank CIC an acquisition contract of monetary market fund “SICAV CM-CIC” pledged as a guarantee for the ordinary rental agreements of the premises of Bagneux for an amount of €0.3 million. The Company also signed a letter of credit to ensure the sub-lease of its premises of its New York subsidiary company for $164 thousand due on March 17, 2016 and which has been extended for an additional year in 2016. This letter of credit has not been extended for an additional year in 2017. A letter of credit has also been signed by the Company in April 2016 for $143 thousand to ensure the lease of its premises of its Summit (NJ) subsidiary. This credit note has been extended for an additional year. A letter of credit has also been signed by the Company in May 2017 for $300 thousand to ensure the lease of its premises of its New York subsidiary. In addition, in 2015, the Company took a term deposit for a sum of €227 thousand over 3 years. As it has sub-contracted several important functions, the Company has been required to conclude, within the framework of its current operations, sub-contracting contracts or short- or medium-term delegation contracts with various third parties, in France and abroad, which include various obligations that are usual in these circumstances. Within the context of launching its clinical studies for Viaskin Peanuts and Viaskin Milk products, the Company signed agreements with several contract research organizations (CRO). The ongoing studies amount globally to €78.7 million. As of December 31, 2017, the amount remaining to pay as part of these contracts until year end 2021 is €32.6 million. On January 7, 2009, the Company entered into an assignment, development and co-ownership agreement with Public Welfare-Hospitals of Paris (L’Assistance Publique—Hopitaux de Paris), or AP-HP, and Université Paris-Descartes, or UPD, by which the Company agreed to terms of co-ownership with AP-HP and UPD of certain U.S. and foreign patents and patent applications, referred to herein as the shared patents. The Company, and any licensees or sublicensees the Company designates, have the exclusive right to commercial uses of the shared patents. AP-HP and UPD agreed to use the shared patents only for internal research purposes and not to license the shared patents to any third party. Upon commercialization of any product covered by the shared patents, which the Company expects would include its Viaskin product candidates, the Company will be obligated to pay AP-HP and UPD a percentage of net sales as a royalty. This royalty varies depending on the particular patent used in the product and is in the low single digits. Additionally, if the Company licenses any of the shared patents to a third party and a licensee commercializes products covered by such shared patents, the Company will be obligated to pay AP-HP and UPD a percentage in the low single digits of the money it receives from its licensee. If the Company does not sell any of its product candidates covered by the shared patents within 30 months from the date it first markets such product candidates, AP-HP may, upon six months’ notice and subject to certain exceptions, convert its exclusive right to the commercial use of the shared patents to a non-exclusive right. Any party may terminate the license in the event of another party’s substantial breach which remains uncured after six months of receiving written notice of such breach. The agreement will also terminate in the event the Company ceases operations or is subject to a dissolution or bankruptcy proceedings. Absent early termination, the agreement will automatically terminate upon the expiration of the last shared patent. In the event the agreement is terminated, the Company would no longer have the exclusive right to commercial use of the shared patents, though it would retain its shared ownership rights. In addition, its ownership stake in certain jointly made improvements covered by the shared patents would survive termination of the agreement. The longest lived patent rights licensed to the Company under the agreement are currently expected to expire in 2028. To date, this agreement has not had an impact on the Company’s financial statements.
