Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 17, 2020, Y-mAbs Therapeutics, Inc., (the “Company”) entered into a license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with SciClone Pharmaceuticals International Ltd. (“SciClone”).

 

Under the terms of the License Agreement the Company granted SciClone an exclusive license to develop and commercialize DANYELZA® (naxitamab-gqgk) for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory high-risk neuroblastoma and omburtamab, if approved, (jointly “Licensed Products”) for the treatment of pediatric patients with CNS/leptomeningeal metastasis from neuroblastoma, as well as certain other indications, in Greater China, including Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau (together the “Territory” and each a “Region”).

 

The Company also agreed to transfer certain know-how including data and regulatory materials related to the Licensed Products and to allow SciClone the right to access and cross-reference filings made by Y-mAbs regulatory authorities and regulatory materials relating to the extent necessary in connection with SciClone’s regulatory activities with respect to the Licensed Products.

 

SciClone has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize the Licensed Products through the term of the License Agreement in all Regions of the Territory.

 

In connection with the execution of the License Agreement, SciClone will make an upfront cash payment to the Company of $20 million. SciClone is obligated to make additional payments of up to $100 million to the Company based on achievement of specified development, regulatory and sales-related milestones relating to the Licensed products. SciClone is also required to make double-digit royalties on net sales of Licensed Products in the Territory.

 

Under the License Agreement SciClone has agreed to purchase exclusively from the Company and the Company has agreed to provide to SciClone, necessary supplies of DANYELZA and omburtamab.

 

The License Agreement continues in force until terminated by either party on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and Region-by-Region basis. Each Party may terminate the License Agreement if the other Party materially breaches the License Agreement and does not cure such breach within a specified period or if a Party experiences certain insolvency events. Each of the Parties also has certain unilateral termination rights, including a right for SciClone to terminate the License Agreement for convenience.

 

The License Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnification provisions subject to certain limitations. 

 

The foregoing description of the License Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the License Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
