Item 8.01.                                          Other Events.

 

As a consequence of the closing by BioOne Corporation (“BioOne”) of a Series B Preferred Stock financing on December 9, 2005, BioOne has an obligation to issue to the Company the Yen equivalent of $5,000,000 of BioOne Series B Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Company is not required to make any payment to BioOne for the issuance of such shares or warrants. The warrant is exercisable at a nominal price. Combining the shares being issued to the Company currently with the shares to be issued to the Company upon exercise of the warrant, the constructive price per share in the transaction equals the average of the share issuance prices in the above-referenced Series B Preferred Stock financing and in the previous BioOne Series A Preferred Stock financing. The issuance of the securities may be subject to completion of subscription documentation and Japanese legal procedures. Such issuances by BioOne are partial consideration for the license and related rights granted to BioOne pursuant to that certain Commercialization Agreement, dated as of May 27, 2005, by and among the Company, BioOne and subsidiaries of Baxter International Inc. The amount of consideration represented by the Series B Preferred Stock and warrants will be recognized by the Company over the remaining development period.
