Alliance will receive GBP6.7m in cash, inclusive of costs, in full and final settlement of Alliance's claims.

Alliance will continue to distribute ImmuCyst in the UK and looks forward to bringing the product back into supply before the end of the year. The Company expects that future stocks of ImmuCyst will be constrained.
