Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations
Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 5, 2011, Unigene Laboratories, Inc. issued a press release announcing that it had terminated its amended and restated exclusive worldwide license agreement and related development services and clinical supply agreement with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) pertaining to an oral formulation of a recombinantly produced parathyroid hormone (PTH) analog for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. The termination of these agreements followed notification by GSK of its decision not to proceed based on its internal evaluation criteria. As a result, Unigene regains the exclusive worldwide rights to its oral PTH program with no financial obligations to GSK. Unigene also announced that, taking into account cost saving initiatives along with anticipated licensing and feasibility study payments, as well as Fortical revenues and royalties, cash flow is currently projected by the Company to fund business operations into the second half of 2012.
