On October 7, 2011, the Company entered into a Collaborative Development and License Agreement (the “Agreement”) with VGX Int’l. Under the Agreement, the Company and VGX Int’l will co-develop the Company’s SynCon® therapeutic vaccines for hepatitis B and C infections (the “Products”). Under the terms of the Agreement, VGX Int’l will receive marketing rights for the Products in Asia, excluding Japan, and in return will fully fund IND-enabling and initial Phase I and II clinical studies with respect to the Products. The Company will receive from VGX Int’l payments based on the achievement of clinical milestones and royalties based on sales of the Products in the licensed territories, retaining all commercial rights to the Products in all other territories. On March 24, 2010, the Company entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement (the “VGX Int’l Agreement”) with VGX Int’l. Under the VGX Int’l Agreement, the Company granted VGX Int’l an exclusive license to Inovio’s SynCon® universal influenza vaccine delivered with electroporation to be developed in certain countries in Asia (the “Product”). As consideration for the license granted to VGX Int’l, the Company received payment of $3.0 million, and will receive research support, annual license maintenance fees and royalties on net Product sales. The Company recorded the $3.0 million as deferred revenue from affiliated entity, and will recognize it as revenue over the eight year expected period of the Company’s performance obligation. In addition, contingent upon achievement of clinical and regulatory milestones, the Company will receive development payments over the term of the VGX Int’l Agreement. The VGX Int’l Agreement also provides Inovio with exclusive rights to supply devices for clinical and commercial purposes (including single use components) to VGX Int’l for use in the Product. The term of the VGX Int’l Agreement commenced upon execution and will extend on a country by country basis until the last to expire of all Royalty Periods for the territory (as such term is defined in the VGX Int’l Agreement) for any Product in that country, unless the VGX Int’l Agreement is terminated earlier in accordance with its provisions as a result of breach, by mutual agreement, or by VGX Int’l’s right to terminate without cause upon prior written notice.
