Sale of Product Line | SALE OF PRODUCT LINE On July 1, 2014, we entered into a Surveyor Kit Patent, Technology, and Inventory Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Integrated DNA Technologies, Inc. (“IDT”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on July 1, 2014, we transferred and sold to IDT all of our right, title and interest in and to our Surveyor Kits product line and related technology, including, without limitation, all patents, patent applications, licenses, technology, know-how and trademarks relating to the Surveyor Kits product line technology and our inventory of Surveyor products (collectively, the “Surveyor Technology”). In consideration for the purchase of the Surveyor Technology, IDT paid us an initial payment of $3.65 million. IDT will pay us an additional amount equal to an aggregate of $600,000 in four equal installments, the first of which was required to be made by, and was received on, October 1, 2014, and the last of which must be made by July 1, 2015. Additionally, if net sales of the Surveyor Kits by IDT exceed a certain threshold during the period beginning on October 1, 2014 and ending on September 30, 2015, IDT will be obligated to pay us an additional earn-out payment equal to a percentage of the net sales exceeding the threshold that is in the middle double digits. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, IDT granted us a worldwide, irrevocable, exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty-free, transferable right and license to the Surveyor Technology for clinical uses, including, without limitation, the provision of diagnostic and pharmaceutical services and any other clinical uses in connection with our Laboratory Services segment. In the quarter ended September 30, 2014, we recorded a gain on the sale of the Surveyor Technology of approximately $4.1 million, based on the net proceeds in excess of the total divested net assets.
