13.Sale and Exclusive License/Supply Agreement with Bimini Technologies LLC

On July 30, 2013, we entered into a Sale and Exclusive License/Supply Agreement with Bimini Technologies LLC (“Bimini”), pursuant to which we sold to Bimini substantially all of the assets (other than certain retained rights and licenses) of our Puregraft® product line, a series of standalone fat transplantation products that were developed to improve the predictability of outcomes for autologous fat grafting and aesthetic body contouring. The aggregate value of the consideration paid by Bimini at the execution of the agreement was $5.0 million.

In connection with the sale, Bimini granted to the Company an exclusive, perpetual, royalty bearing license to market and sell the Puregraft products for use in combination with adipose derived regenerative cells, and non-exclusive rights for use in connection with the Company’s licensed cell and tissue banks. The Company will supply Puregraft products to Bimini on an interim basis until the Company transfers the manufacturing of the Puregraft products to Bimini. After the transfer, Bimini will supply the Puregraft products to the Company.

Pursuant to the sale agreement, the Company has also granted to Bimini the global, exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable royalty bearing license to purchase from Cytori, use and sell the Celution® System products for Alopecia (hair loss). Cytori will supply Celution devices and consumable sets to Bimini, and Bimini will be responsible for all costs associated with commercial development in the Alopecia market. Bimini has also been granted an exclusive option through the end of 2013 to license Celution products for the global aesthetics market.

The agreement includes certain obligations to be performed by the Company on the behalf of Bimini, which includes transferring the manufacturing of Puregraft products to an agreed upon third party on or before December 31, 2014 and training. The Company recorded a gain on the Puregraft divestiture of $4.4 million in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations, which is net of $608,000 in estimated future transfer and training obligations. Bimini is obligated to make certain additional milestone payments to the Company (in an aggregate amount of up to $10.0 million), contingent upon the achievement of certain milestones relating to Bimini’s gross profits from sales of the Puregraft products.
