Q-Biologicals Agreement
 
The Company entered into a Manufacturing Services Agreement (the “MSA”) and Quality Assurance Agreement (the “QAA”), each with an effective date of August 12, 2016, with Q-Biologicals NV (“Q-Biologicals”), a contract manufacturing organization located in Belgium. Pursuant to the MSA, Q-Biologicals will produce certain drug substances and product containing certain enzymes at its facility in Belgium. The Company will use these substances and products for development purposes, including but not limited to clinical trials. The MSA contemplates payment to Q-Biologicals pursuant to a pre-determined fee schedule based on the completion of certain milestones that depend on our manufacturing requirements and final batch yield. We anticipate that our payments to Q-Biologicals under the MSA will range between $2.5 million and $5.0 million over five years, with the majority of the expenditures occurring during the first two years of the MSA when the finished drug product is manufactured and released for clinical trials, including a pre-payment to Q-Biologicals of approximately $144,000. The MSA shall continue for a term of three years unless extended by mutual agreement in writing. We can terminate the MSA early for any reason upon the required notice period, however, in such event, the pre-payment paid upon signing the MSA is considered non-refundable. The QAA sets forth the parties respective obligations and responsibilities relating to the manufacturing and testing of the products under the MSA. The agreements with Q-Biologicals contain certain customary representations, warranties and limitations of liabilities, and confidentiality and indemnity obligations. As of September 30, 2016, the pre-payment of $144,000 has not been made.
