Collaborative Agreements | Collaborative Agreements Roche Collaboration In December 2006, we and Roche entered into a collaboration and license agreement, under which Roche obtained a worldwide, exclusive license to develop and commercialize product combinations of rHuPH20 and up to thirteen Roche target compounds (the “Roche Collaboration”). As of June 30, 2016, Roche has elected a total of five targets, two of which are exclusive, and retains the option to develop and commercialize rHuPH20 with three additional targets. In August 2013, Roche received European marketing approval for its collaboration product, Herceptin SC, for the treatment of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer and launched Herceptin SC in the European Union (“EU”) in September 2013. In March 2014, Roche received European marketing approval for its collaboration product, MabThera SC, for the treatment of patients with common forms of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (“NHL”). In June 2014, Roche launched MabThera SC in the EU. Roche assumes all development, manufacturing, clinical, regulatory, sales and marketing costs under the Roche Collaboration, while we are responsible for the supply of bulk rHuPH20. We are entitled to receive reimbursements for providing research and development services and supplying bulk rHuPH20 to Roche at its request. Under the terms of the Roche Collaboration, Roche pays us a royalty on each product commercialized under the agreement consisting of a mid-single digit percent of the net sales of such product. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the Roche Collaboration continues in effect until the expiration of Roche’s obligation to pay royalties. Roche has the obligation to pay royalties to us with respect to each product commercialized in each country, during the period equal to the longer of: (a) the duration of any valid claim of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the Roche Collaboration which valid claim covers the product in such country or (b) ten years following the date of the first commercial sale of such product in such country. In the event such valid claims expire, the royalty rate is reduced for the remaining royalty term. Payments received from Roche, excluding royalties and reimbursements for providing research and development services and supplying bulk rHuPH20, since inception of the collaboration agreement are as follows (in thousands):
Due to our continuing involvement obligations (for example, support activities associated with rHuPH20), revenues from the upfront payment, exclusive designation fees, annual license maintenance fees and sales-based milestone payments were deferred and are being amortized over the remaining term of the Roche Collaboration. For both the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recognized $0.8 million of Roche deferred revenues, excluding reimbursements for providing research and development services and supplying bulk rHuPH20, as revenues under collaborative agreements. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recognized $1.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of Roche deferred revenues, excluding reimbursements for providing research and development services, as revenues under collaborative agreements. Roche deferred revenues, excluding deferred revenues related to reimbursements for providing research and development services, were $37.4 million and $39.0 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Baxalta Collaboration In September 2007, we and Baxalta entered into a collaboration and license agreement, under which Baxalta obtained a worldwide, exclusive license to develop and commercialize HYQVIA, a combination of Baxalta’s current product GAMMAGARD LIQUID™ and our patented rHuPH20 enzyme (the “Baxalta Collaboration”). In May 2013, the European Commission granted Baxalta marketing authorization in all EU Member States for the use of HYQVIA (solution for subcutaneous use), a combination of GAMMAGARD LIQUID and rHuPH20 in dual vial units, as replacement therapy for adult patients with primary and secondary immunodeficiencies. Baxalta launched HYQVIA in the EU in July 2013. In September 2014, the FDA approved HYQVIA for treatment of adult patients with primary immunodeficiency. In October 2014, Baxalta announced the launch and first shipments of HYQVIA in the U.S. The Baxalta Collaboration is applicable to both kit and formulation combinations. Baxalta assumes all development, manufacturing, clinical, regulatory, sales and marketing costs under the Baxalta Collaboration, while we are responsible for the supply of bulk rHuPH20. We perform research and development activities and supply bulk rHuPH20 at the request of Baxalta, and are reimbursed by Baxalta under the terms of the Baxalta Collaboration. In addition, Baxalta has certain product development and commercialization obligations in major markets identified in the Baxalta Collaboration. Under the terms of the Baxalta Collaboration, Baxalta pays us a royalty consisting of a mid-single digit percent of the net sales of HYQVIA. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the Baxalta Collaboration continues in effect until the expiration of Baxalta’s obligation to pay royalties to us. Baxalta has the obligation to pay royalties to us with respect to each product commercialized in each country, during the period equal to the longer of: (a) the duration of any valid claim of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the Baxalta Collaboration which valid claim covers the product in such country or (b) ten years following the date of the first commercial sale of such product in such country. In the event such valid claims expire, the royalty rate is reduced for the remaining royalty term. Payments received from Baxalta, excluding royalties and reimbursements for providing research and development services and supplying bulk rHuPH20, since inception of the collaboration agreement are as follows (in thousands):
Due to our continuing involvement obligations (for example, support activities associated with rHuPH20 enzyme), the upfront license fee and sales-based milestone payments were deferred and are being recognized over the term of the Baxalta Collaboration. For both the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recognized $0.2 million of Baxalta deferred revenues as revenues under collaborative agreements. For both the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recognized $0.4 million of Baxalta deferred revenues as revenues under collaborative agreements. Baxalta deferred revenues totaled $8.6 million and $9.0 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Other Collaborations In December 2015, we and Lilly entered into a collaboration and license agreement, under which Lilly has the worldwide license to develop and commercialize products combining our patented rHuPH20 enzyme with Lilly proprietary biologics directed at up to five targets (the “Lilly Collaboration”). Targets, once selected, will be on an exclusive, global basis. As of June 30, 2016, Lilly has elected two specified exclusive targets and one specified semi-exclusive target. Lilly has the right to elect up to two additional targets for additional fees. The upfront license payment may be followed by event-based payments subject to Lilly’s achievement of specified development, regulatory and sales-based milestones. In addition, Lilly will pay royalties to us if products under the collaboration are commercialized. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the Lilly Collaboration continues in effect until the later of: (i) expiration of the last to expire of the valid claims of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the collaboration which valid claim covers a product developed under the collaboration, and (ii) expiration of the last to expire royalty term for a product developed under the collaboration. The royalty term of a product developed under the Lilly Collaboration, with respect to each country, consists of the period equal to the longer of: (a) the duration of any valid claim of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the collaboration which valid claim covers the product in such country or (b) ten years following the date of the first commercial sale of such product in such country. In the event such valid claims expire, the royalty rate is reduced for the remaining royalty term. Lilly may terminate the agreement prior to expiration for any reason in its entirety upon 60 days prior written notice to us. Upon any such termination, the license granted to Lilly (in total or with respect to the terminated target, as applicable) will terminate provided, however, that in the event of expiration of the agreement, the licenses granted will become perpetual, non-exclusive and fully paid. In June 2015, we and AbbVie entered into a collaboration and license agreement, under which AbbVie has the worldwide license to develop and commercialize products combining our patented rHuPH20 enzyme with AbbVie proprietary biologics directed at up to nine targets (the “AbbVie Collaboration”). Targets, once selected, will be on an exclusive, global basis. As of June 30, 2016, AbbVie has elected one specified exclusive target, TNF alpha. AbbVie has announced plans to develop rHuPH20 with adalimumab (HUMIRA®) which may allow reduced number of induction injections and deliver additional performance benefits. AbbVie has the right to elect up to eight additional targets for additional fees. The upfront license payment may be followed by event-based payments subject to AbbVie’s achievement of specified development, regulatory and sales-based milestones. In addition, AbbVie will pay tiered royalties to us if products under the collaboration are commercialized. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the AbbVie Collaboration continues in effect until the later of: (i) expiration of the last to expire of the valid claims of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the collaboration which valid claim covers a product developed under the collaboration, and (ii) expiration of the last to expire royalty term for a product developed under the collaboration. The royalty term of a product developed under the AbbVie Collaboration, with respect to each country, consists of the period equal to the longer of: (a) the duration of any valid claim of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the collaboration which valid claim covers the product in such country or (b) ten years following the date of the first commercial sale of such product in such country. In the event such valid claims expire, the royalty rate is reduced for the remaining royalty term. AbbVie may terminate the agreement prior to expiration for any reason in its entirety or on a target-by-target basis upon 90 days prior written notice to us. Upon any such termination, the license granted to AbbVie (in total or with respect to the terminated target, as applicable) will terminate provided, however, that in the event of expiration of the agreement, the licenses granted will become perpetual, non-exclusive and fully paid. In December 2014, we and Janssen entered into a collaboration and license agreement, under which Janssen has the worldwide license to develop and commercialize products combining our patented rHuPH20 enzyme with Janssen proprietary biologics directed at up to five targets (the “Janssen Collaboration”). Targets, once selected, will be on an exclusive, global basis. As of June 30, 2016, Janssen has elected one specified exclusive target, CD38. Janssen has the right to elect four additional targets in the future upon payment of additional fees. In addition, Janssen will pay royalties to us if products under the collaboration are commercialized. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the Janssen Collaboration continues in effect until the later of (i) expiration of the last to expire of the valid claims of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the collaboration which valid claim covers a product developed under the collaboration, and (ii) expiration of the last to expire royalty term for a product developed under the collaboration. The royalty term of a product developed under the Janssen Collaboration, with respect to each country, consists of the period equal to the longer of: (a) the duration of any valid claim of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the collaboration which valid claim covers the product in such country or (b) ten years following the date of the first commercial sale of such product in such country. In the event such valid claims expire, the royalty rate is reduced for the remaining royalty term. Janssen may terminate the agreement prior to expiration for any reason in its entirety or on a product-by-product basis upon 90 days prior written notice to us. Upon any such termination, the license granted to Janssen (in total or with respect to the terminated target, as applicable) will terminate provided, however, that in the event of expiration of the agreement, the licenses granted will become perpetual, non-exclusive and fully paid. In December 2012, we and Pfizer entered into a collaboration and license agreement, under which Pfizer has the worldwide license to develop and commercialize products combining our patented rHuPH20 enzyme with Pfizer proprietary biologics directed at up to six targets (the “Pfizer Collaboration”). Targets may be selected on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis. As of June 30, 2016, Pfizer has elected five specified exclusive targets. One of the targets is proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9, also known as PCSK9. Pfizer has the right to elect one additional target in the future upon payment of additional fees. In addition, Pfizer will pay royalties to us if products under the collaboration are commercialized. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the Pfizer Collaboration continues in effect until the later of (i) expiration of the last to expire of the valid claims of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the collaboration which valid claim covers a product developed under the collaboration, and (ii) expiration of the last to expire royalty term for a product developed under the collaboration. The royalty term of a product developed under the Pfizer Collaboration, with respect to each country, consists of the period equal to the longer of: (a) the duration of any valid claim of our patents covering rHuPH20 or other specified patents developed under the collaboration which valid claim covers the product in such country or (b) ten years following the date of the first commercial sale of such product in such country. Royalties are subject to adjustment as set forth in the agreement. Pfizer may terminate the agreement prior to expiration for any reason in its entirety or on a target-by-target basis upon 30 days prior written notice to us. Upon any such termination, the license granted to Pfizer (in total or with respect to the terminated target, as applicable) will terminate, provided, however, that in the event of expiration of the agreement, the licenses granted will become perpetual, non-exclusive and fully paid. Payments received from other collaborators for upfront license fees, license fees for the election of additional targets, maintenance fees and event-based payments since inception of the collaboration agreements are as follows (in thousands):
At the inception of the Pfizer, Janssen, AbbVie and Lilly arrangements, we identified the deliverables in each arrangement to include the license, research and development services and supply of bulk rHuPH20. We have determined that the license, research and development services and supply of bulk rHuPH20 individually represent separate units of accounting, because each deliverable has standalone value. We determined that the rights to elect additional targets in the future upon the payment of additional license fees are substantive options that are not priced at a significant and incremental discount. Therefore, we determined for each collaboration that the rights to elect additional targets are not deliverables at the inception of the arrangement. The estimated selling prices for the units of accounting we identified were determined based on market conditions, the terms of comparable collaborative arrangements for similar technology in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry and entity-specific factors such as the terms of our previous collaborative agreements, our pricing practices and pricing objectives. The arrangement consideration was allocated to the deliverables based on the relative selling price method and the nature of the research and development services to be performed for the collaborator. The amount allocable to the delivered unit or units of accounting is limited to the amount that is not contingent upon the delivery of additional items or meeting other specified performance conditions (non-contingent amount). As such, we excluded from the allocable arrangement consideration the event-based payments, milestone payments, annual exclusivity fees and royalties regardless of the probability of receipt. Based on the results of our analysis, we allocated the $12.5 million license fees from Pfizer, the $15.3 million license fee from Janssen, the $23.0 million upfront license fee from AbbVie and the $33.0 million license fees from Lilly to the license fee deliverable under each of the arrangements. We determined that the upfront payments were earned upon the granting of the worldwide, exclusive right to our technology to the collaborators in these arrangements. As a result, we recognized the $12.5 million license fees under the Pfizer Collaboration, the $15.3 million license fee under the Janssen Collaboration, the $23.0 million upfront license fee under the AbbVie Collaboration, and the $33.0 million license fees under the Lilly Collaboration as revenues under collaborative agreements in the period when such license fees were earned. We recognized revenues of $6.0 million related to event-based payments or milestone payments under these collaborations for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. We did not recognize any such revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. The collaborators are each solely responsible for the development, manufacturing and marketing of any products resulting from their respective collaborations. We are entitled to receive payments for research and development services and supply of bulk rHuPH20 if requested by any collaborator. We recognize amounts allocated to research and development services as revenues under collaborative agreements as the related services are performed. We recognize amounts allocated to the sales of bulk rHuPH20 as revenues under collaborative agreements when such bulk rHuPH20 has met all required specifications by the collaborators and the related title and risk of loss and damages have passed to the collaborators. We cannot predict the timing of delivery of research and development services and bulk rHuPH20 as they are at the collaborators’ requests. Pursuant to the terms of our collaboration agreements with Roche and Pfizer, certain future payments meet the definition of a milestone in accordance with the Milestone Method of Accounting. We are entitled to receive additional milestone payments under our collaboration agreements with Roche and Pfizer for the successful development of the elected targets in the aggregate of up to $62.5 million upon achievement of specified clinical development milestone events and up to $12.0 million upon achievement of specified regulatory milestone events in connection with specified regulatory filings and receipt of marketing approvals. |
