The Company paid $7.0 million for financial advisory fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, equal to 2% of $225.0 million received for the sale of shares and 2% of $125.0 million received for the upfront fee.

The Company believes that the allocation of fees on a relative fair value basis between the two agreements is reasonable.

This balance will be amortized and included in general and administrative costs on a systematic basis consistent with the transfer of the services to Biogen in accordance with ASC Topic 340, Other Assets and Deferred Costs. The Company amortized $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The Company recognized $2.9 million, which represents 2% of the $145.4 million estimated fair value of the equity issued, as a share issuance cost and recorded this amount in equity as reduction in proceeds.
