Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

On September 5, 2019, ImmuCell Corporation (the Company) entered into a Development Services and Commercial Supply Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Norbrook Laboratories Limited of Newry, Northern Ireland (“Norbrook”), which Agreement replaces and supersedes in its entirety the Product Development & Contract Manufacture Agreement (the “2015 Agreement”), dated as of December 17, 2015, between the Company and Norbrook. As previously disclosed, Norbrook had the potential right to terminate the 2015 Agreement if the Company did not receive U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval to commence commercial sales of the Company’s subclinical mastitis treatment, Re-Tain™, by December 19, 2019, which is no longer achievable in that timeframe.

Under the Agreement, Norbrook will continue to provide formulation, aseptic filling and final packaging services at its FDA-licensed facility as required in order for the Company to make the needed submissions to obtain the FDA’s approval of the Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls Technical Section for Re-Tain™, which is the final critical step to full FDA approval and commencement of commercial product sales in the U.S. Given a current assessment of the work that needs to be performed and allowing for statutory review periods by the FDA, the Company expects to be able to achieve FDA approval during 2021. The Agreement also provides for Norbrook to perform formulation, aseptic filling and final packaging services with respect to Re-Tain™ in accordance with purchase orders submitted by the Company from time to time for inventory build and subsequent product sales worth up to approximately $7 million in projected sales value for orders placed through December 31, 2021. The Company believes that the Agreement will enable it to commence sales of Re-Tain™ without delay upon receipt of the anticipated FDA approval.

Through a public offering of its common stock in March 2019, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $8.3 million, of which approximately $4 million has been allocated to the equipping and commencement of operations of a new formulation and aseptic filling facility for Re-Tain™ to be located within the Company’s existing Portland, Maine manufacturing facilities. Based on current construction plans and equipment ordering and installation timelines, the Company expects this facility to be operational during 2022. This new facility will have the formulation and aseptic filling capacity to exceed the expected production capacity of the Company’s Drug Substance (Nisin) facility, which is approximately $10 million in annual sales. The formulation and aseptic filling operation will utilize space that had been intended for potential expanded production of the Drug Substance for Re-Tain™. As a result, the Company would need to further expand its facilities in order to meet Re-Tain™ sales in excess of approximately $10 million per year. The Company has not determined if it will perform the final packaging services in-house or contract to have those services performed by a third party.

It is the Company’s objective to meet market demand for Re-Tain™ with product produced by Norbrook under the Agreement until long-term supply is available from its new, in-house facility. This integrated manufacturing capability for Re-Tain™ will substantially reduce the Company’s dependence on third-parties for the production of this important new product. Upon completion of its formulation and aseptic filling facility, the only significant third-party input for Re-Tain™ will be the Drug Product syringes. It is anticipated that Hubert De Backer of Belgium (“HDB”) will supply these syringes in accordance with purchase orders submitted by the Company from time to time. HDB is a syringe supplier for many of the largest participants in the human and veterinary medical industries, and with whom Norbrook presently works. As a consequence, the Company has discontinued its syringe supply agreement for Re-Tain™ with Nordson Corporation (f/k/a Plas-Pak Industries, Inc.). Based on HDB’s performance history and reputation in the industry, the Company is confident that HDB will be a dependable supplier of syringes in the quantity and at the quality needed for Re-Tain™.
