Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On December 9, 2022, Eagle Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
(the “Company”), entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its previously disclosed development and license
agreement with Robert One, LLC (“Robert One”) dated as of February 13, 2009, and amended on May 22, 2009, December 23,
2010, July 16, 2013, and August 5, 2015 (as amended, the “License Agreement”), pursuant to which Robert One assigned
to the Company certain patents relating to pemetrexed and four additional 505(b)(2) products and/or ANDA products under development
(the “Products”) and granted the Company an exclusive, sub-licensable, license under Robert One’s intellectual property
rights to develop make, use, sell and import the Products worldwide (excluding China) with respect to pemetrexed and the other 505(b)(2) product
applications and in North America with respect to ANDA product applications.
Under the original terms of the License Agreement,
the Company was required to make royalty payments on Gross Profits (as defined in the License Agreement) derived from the Products at
rates equal to (i) fifty percent with respect to a 505(b)(2) application; (ii) thirty percent with respect to an ANDA application;
and (iii) twenty-five percent with respect to pemetrexed parenteral formulation. Under the terms of the Amendment, the applicable
royalty rates due by the Company on Gross Profits derived from the Products were amended to (i) thirty percent with respect to a
505(b)(2) application; (ii) thirty percent with respect to an ANDA application; and (iii) with respect to pemetrexed parenteral
formulation, (a) ten percent on Gross Profits greater than $85,000,000 and (b) twelve percent on Gross Profits greater
than $115,000,000. In addition, under the terms of the Amendment, no royalty payment is due on Gross Profits derived from pemetrexed parenteral
formulation that are less than $85,000,000. In exchange for the foregoing amended royalty rates, the Company is required to make a lump
sum payment of $15,000,000 to Robert One on January 3, 2023.
