These excerpts taken from the ABII 10-K filed Mar 6, 2009. Various Other 2008 Agreements In December 2008, we entered into an agreement to provide a grant to a non-profit US-based incubator for biomedical start-ups. The transaction included an initial grant by us of $4 million, which was charged to research and development expense and additional funding of $0.6 million per quarter for a total of $14 million over 5 years subject to our approval. Additionally, an optional future payment of $3.5 million is possible upon approval of an additional project by us. Our chief executive officer serves on the board of this non-profit entity. In December 2008, we purchased preferred stock of DiThera, Inc. representing 50% of DiTheras outstanding capital stock for $5 million. We have determined that DiThera is a variable interest entity and we are the primary beneficiary. Therefore, we have consolidated DiThera in our financial statements.
