This excerpt taken from the ABII 10-K filed Mar 12, 2010. Investment and License Agreements with ProMetic Life Sciences Inc. In September 2008, we entered into agreements with ProMetic Life Sciences Inc. (ProMetic) to develop and commercialize four biopharmaceutical products targeting underserved medical conditions. We entered into the following agreements: (i) a securities purchase agreement, (ii) a license agreement, (iii) a supply and license agreement, (iv) an exclusive manufacturing agreement, and (v) a services agreement. The transaction included an initial investment in ProMetic of $7 million and optional future investment rights of up to $25 million. Of the $7 million initial investment, $5.2 million was allocated to the purchase of ProMetics common stock and $1.8 million was allocated to the future investment rights option. We will have access to ProMetics proprietary protein technologies to commercialize the biopharmaceuticals and will fund all development costs to regulatory approval. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, we incurred $3.6 and $1.1 million, respectively, in development costs under the license agreements. We may also make potential payments upon achievement of specified milestones and make royalty payments to ProMetic based on the net sales of the four potential new products. Additionally, ProMetic will perform product development activities on behalf of Abraxis under the service agreement. In December 2009, we entered into a collaboration agreement with ProMetic to develop and commercialize various applications deriving from ProMetics prion capture technology platform. As part of the agreement, we will share equally with ProMetic the costs for the development of such new applications and the revenues arising from their commercialization.
