Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies Manufacturing Agreement The Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, PMI, entered into a manufacturing agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”) with Mylan Consumer Healthcare Inc. (formerly known as Meda Consumer Healthcare Inc.) (“MCH”) and Mylan Inc. (together with MCH, “Mylan” in connection with the asset purchase agreement we entered into with Mylan in 2017. Pursuant to the terms of the Manufacturing Agreement, Mylan (or an affiliate or designee) purchased the inventory of the Company’s Cold-EEZE® brand and product line, and PMI agreed to manufacture certain products for Mylan, as described in the Manufacturing Agreement, at prices that reflect current market conditions for such products and include an agreed upon mark-up on our costs. On May 1, 2021, the Manufacturing Agreement was assigned by Mylan to Nurya Brands, Inc. (“Nurya”) in connection with Nurya’s acquisitions of certain assets from Mylan, including the Cold-EEZE® brand and product line. Unless terminated sooner by the parties, the Manufacturing Agreement will remain in effect until March 29, 2023. Thereafter, the Manufacturing Agreement may be renewed by Nurya for up to four successive one-year periods by providing notice of its intent to renew not less than 90 days prior to the expiration of the then-current term. License Agreement On July 19, 2022, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary ProPhase BioPharma entered into a License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Global BioLife, Inc. (the “Licensor”), with an effective date of July 18, 2022 (the “Linebacker Effective Date”), pursuant to which it acquired from Licensor a worldwide exclusive right and license under certain patents identified in the License Agreement (the “Licensed Patents”) and know-how (collectively, the “Licensed IP”) to exploit any compound covered by the Licensed Patents (the “Licensed Compound”), including Linebacker LB1 and LB2, and any product comprising or containing a Licensed Compound (“Licensed Products”) in the treatment of cancer, inflammatory diseases or symptoms, memory-related syndromes, diseases or symptoms including dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease (the “Field”). Under the terms of the License Agreement, the Licensor reserves the right, solely for itself and for GRDG Sciences, LLC (“GRDG”) to use the Licensed Compound and Licensed IP solely for research purposes inside the Field and for any purpose outside the Field. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the License Agreement, the Company may grant sublicenses (including the right to grant further sublicenses) to its rights under the License Agreement to any of its affiliates or any third party with the prior written consent of Licensor, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Either party to the License Agreement may assign its rights under the License Agreement (i) in connection with the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets to a third party, (b) in the event of a merger or consolidation with a third party or (iii) to an affiliate; in each case contingent upon the assignee assuming in writing all of the obligations of its assignor under the License Agreement.
