On November 22, 2019, Bristol-Myers Squibb prepaid in full the outstanding balance of $8.0 billion and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and terminated all commitments thereunder.

Item 2.01
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

As previously announced, on November 20, 2019, Bristol-Myers Squibb acquired Celgene when it consummated the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 2, 2019 (“Merger Agreement”), among Bristol-Myers Squibb, Burgundy Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Bristol-Myers Squibb (“Merger Sub”), and Celgene. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Celgene, with Celgene surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Bristol-Myers Squibb (the “Merger”).

In June 2019, Bristol-Myers Squibb announced the planned divestiture of OTEZLA® (apremilast) in light of concerns raised by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) in connection with the Merger. In furtherance of this plan, on August 25, 2019, Celgene and Amgen Inc. (“Amgen”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Celgene agreed to sell its OTEZLA® (apremilast) product line and related intellectual property, including any patents that primarily cover apremilast, and other specified assets and liabilities related to the OTEZLA® (apremilast) product line for a cash purchase price of $13.4 billion (the “OTEZLA® Divestiture”). The consummation of the OTEZLA® Divestiture was subject to Bristol-Myers Squibb and Celgene entering into a consent decree with the FTC in connection with the Merger and requiring Celgene to divest OTEZLA® (apremilast) to Amgen, the consummation of the Merger and other customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. On November 15, 2019, the FTC accepted the proposed consent order in connection with the Merger. On November 20, 2019, the Merger closed and on November 21, 2019, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the OTEZLA® Divestiture was completed.
