Net revenues primarily consist of revenue from collaborative arrangements and product sales. Revenue from collaborative arrangements was primarily related to revenue recognized from our agreement with R-Pharm CJSC, which was transferred to Theravance Biopharma as a part of the Spin-Off. Products sales were generated from sales of VIBATIV® in the U.S. through a limited number of distributors, and title and risk of loss transfer upon receipt by these distributors. Healthcare providers ordered VIBATIV® through these distributors. Commencing in the first quarter of 2014, revenue on the sale of VIBATIV® was recorded on a sell-through basis, once the distributors sold the product to healthcare providers. Product sales were recorded net of estimated government-mandated rebates and chargebacks, distribution fees, estimated product returns and other deductions.

Loss from discontinued operations includes the reimbursement of research and development costs from our former collaborative arrangements, excluding GSK, which we accounted for as reductions to research and development expense. Reimbursement of research and development costs from discontinued operations from our collaborative arrangements was $2.0 million and $5.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, and was not material for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

In addition, the loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 includes the special long-term retention and incentive cash awards program. In 2011, we granted special long-term retention and incentive cash bonus awards to certain employees. The awards have dual triggers of vesting based upon the achievement of certain performance conditions over a six-year timeframe from 2011 through December 31, 2016 and continued employment.

As of March 31, 2014, we determined that the achievement of the requisite performance conditions for the first tranche of these awards was probable and, as a result, $9.1 million of cash bonus expense was recognized in the first quarter of 2014, the majority of which is included in discontinued operations. In May 2014, the total cash bonus of $9.5 million for the first tranche was paid.
