Collaboration and License Agreement | Collaboration and License Agreement March 2016 Hitachi Transaction On March 11, 2016, PCT entered into a global collaboration with Hitachi. This collaboration consists of an equity investment in and a license agreement with PCT. Under the equity investment agreement, Hitachi purchased a 19.9% membership interest in PCT for $19.4 million of which $15.0 million of proceeds was distributed to Caladrius from PCT and $4.4 million remained at PCT to be used for the continued expansion and improvements at PCT in support of commercial product launch readiness as well as for general corporate purposes. Caladrius remains the majority shareholder retaining an 80.1% ownership interest. PCT and Hitachi also entered into an exclusive license agreement for the acceleration of the creation of a global commercial cell therapy development and manufacturing expertise in Asia pursuant to which PCT received $5.6 million from Hitachi in 2016. PCT licensed certain cell therapy technology and know-how (including an exclusive license in Asia) and agreed to provide Hitachi Chemical with certain training and support. As additional consideration, Hitachi Chemical will pay PCT royalties on contract revenue generated in Asia for a minimum of ten years. Lastly, as part of the transaction, PCT and Hitachi Chemical agreed to explore the possibility of pursuing a collaboration in cell therapy contract development and manufacturing in Europe. 2017 Hitachi Transaction On March 16, 2017, Caladrius entered into the Purchase Agreement, by and among Caladrius, PCT and Hitachi America, pursuant to which Hitachi America has agreed to acquire the 80.1% membership interest in PCT that it does not already own from Caladrius for $75.0 million in cash, subject to potential adjustment, based on PCT’s cash and outstanding indebtedness as of the closing of the transaction, a potential future milestone payment of $5.0 million based on PCT's revenue in 2017-2018 and certain transaction expenses. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Hitachi America paid Caladrius $5.0 million in March 2017 as an advance payment pending shareholder approval of the transaction, expected to occur on May 16, 2017, and other closing conditions included in the Purchase Agreement. Upon closing of the Sale this $5.0 million advance payment, which is included in the liability section of the balance sheet as an Advance Payment Received From Potential PCT Sale, will be applied toward the total $75.0 million purchase consideration. At the closing of the Sale, Caladrius will receive $65.0 million, with $5.0 million of the purchase consideration to be deposited into an escrow account to cover potential indemnification claims against Caladrius. As part of the Purchase Price, Hitachi will pay Caladrius the $5.0 million Milestone Payment if PCT achieves $125.0 million in cumulative revenue (excluding clinical service reimbursables) for the period from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2018. For purposes of the Milestone Payment, cumulative revenue will be calculated based on PCT’s revenue from all customers (including Caladrius and its subsidiaries) in accordance with the financial accounting and reporting standards set forth in the statements and pronouncements of the FASB, consistently applied. Generally, in the event of a Change in Control of Caladrius (as defined in the 2009 Plan and the 2015 Equity Plan, and, together with the 2009 Plan, the “Equity Compensation Plans”), (a) all outstanding options and stock appreciation rights of each participant granted prior to the change in control shall be fully vested and immediately exercisable in their entirety, and (b) all unvested stock awards, restricted stock units, restricted stock, performance-based awards, and other awards shall become fully vested, including without limitation, the following: (i) the restrictions to which any shares of restricted stock granted prior to the change in control are subject shall lapse as if the applicable restriction period had ended upon such change in control, and (ii) the conditions required for vesting of any unvested performance-based awards shall be deemed to be satisfied upon such change in control. The approval of the Sale by our stockholders will result in a Change in Control under our Equity Compensation Plans. Accordingly, all outstanding unvested equity awards will be accelerated if the Sale is approved by our stockholders. Concurrent with the signing of the Purchase Agreement, on March 16, 2017, Caladrius entered into a Retention and Incentive Agreement with Robert A. Preti, a former Caladrius director and a co-founder and the President of PCT, (the “Retention Agreement”). The Retention Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between Dr. Preti and Caladrius regarding the subject matter of the Retention Agreement. Among other things, the Retention Agreement provides for:
• | Simultaneously with the Closing, Caladrius will pay to Dr. Preti $1.375 million (the “First Retention Payment”).
• | As an incentive to remain employed with PCT and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause PCT to maximize its overall performance and in particular to achieve the Milestone (but not contingent upon achieving the Milestone), Dr. Preti will receive a lump-sum cash retention and incentive payment equal to $1.375 million for the period from Closing until the date one year after the date of the Closing (the “Anniversary Date”), subject to Dr. Preti’s continued employment with PCT through the Anniversary Date (the “Second Retention Payment”).
• | Dr. Preti will be entitled to 5% of the Milestone Payment if it is successfully earned.
All payments are contingent on Closing of the Sale.
