Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 15, 2013, the registrant, Lantheus Medical Imaging, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a Fission Mo-99 Supply Agreement, effective January 1, 2013 (the “Agreement”), with the Institute for Radioelements (“IRE”). Under the terms of the Agreement, which has an initial term of five years expiring on December 31, 2017, the Company is committed to purchase a supply of molybdenum-99 (“Mo-99”) based upon a percentage of the Company’s total volume requirements. The Agreement provides for certain increased quantities of Mo-99 during periods of supply shortage or failure. The Agreement also provides for increased quantities of Mo-99 derived from Low-Enriched Uranium (LEU) targets upon IRE’s completion of its ongoing conversion program to modify its facilities and processes in accordance with Belgian nuclear security commitments. The Agreement allows for termination upon the occurrence of certain events, including failure by IRE to provide the Company’s required amount of Mo-99, material breach of any provision by either party, bankruptcy by either party and force majeure events.
A copy of the press release announcing the Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
