Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Effective December 23, 2015, Bone Biologics Corporation (the “Company”) entered into the Ninth Amendment to the License Agreement (the “Ninth Amendment”) with The Regents of the University of California (the “Regents”). Under the License Agreement, as amended, the Company is responsible for the development and commercialization for Nell-1 (the “Licensed Product”). The Licensed Product is a recombinant human protein growth factor that is essential for normal bone development. Under the terms of the License Agreement, the Regents have granted the Company exclusive rights to develop and commercialize the Licensed Product for use in spinal fusions.
Among other things, the Ninth Amendment amends the definition of Field of Use for the Licensed Products, increases the percentage of any sublicense income payable to the Regents, amends the amount and nature of milestone payments, provides for a cash milestone payment upon the earlier to occur of a Change of Control of the Company or a Payment Election by the Regents (as such terms are defined in the Ninth Amendment), changes the provisions regarding minimum royalties, modifies the provisions with respect to the right of the Regents to terminate the License Agreement or reduce the exclusive grant to a non-exclusive license, and adds certain progress reports that the Company is required to furnish.
The Ninth Amendment will become void if the Company fails to close a financing of at least $5,000,000 before February 29, 2016.
The foregoing description of the Ninth Amendment does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Ninth Amendment, which is filed as an exhibit to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
