(“Harbour”) entered into a license and collaboration agreement (the “Harbour License Agreement”), pursuant to which Harbour granted to Cullinan an exclusive license for the development, manufacturing and commercialization of HBM7008 (CLN-418) in the U.S. Under the terms of the Harbour License Agreement, the Company paid Harbour an upfront license fee of $25.0 million at signing. Harbour will be eligible to receive up to $148.0 million in milestone payments based on the achievement of pre-specified development and regulatory milestones. Harbour is also eligible to receive up to an additional $415.0 million in sales-based milestones as well as tiered royalties up to the high teens on a licensed product-by-licensed product basis, as a percentage of U.S. commercial sales.

The Company may terminate the Harbour License Agreement for convenience by providing 90 days written notice to Harbour. In the Harbour License Agreement, each party made customary representations and warranties and agreed to customary covenants, including, without limitation, with respect to indemnification, for transactions of this type. Cullinan evaluated the Harbour License Agreement and determined that the exclusive license for the development, manufacturing and commercialization of HBM7008 (CLN-418) in the U.S represented an asset acquisition of in-process research and development. The Company also determined that the asset had no alternative future use at the time of acquisition, and therefore the upfront license fee of $25.0 million was recorded within research and development expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Co-Development Agreement with Taiho In June 2022, Cullinan and an affiliate of Taiho entered into a co-development agreement, pursuant to which the Company will collaborate to develop zipalertinib and will retain the option to co-commercialize zipalertinib in the U.S. Under the co-development agreement, development costs for zipalertinib shall be shared equally between Taiho and Cullinan with each party receiving 50% of any future pre-tax profits from potential U.S. sales of zipalertinib. The Company concluded that the co-development agreement with Taiho is a collaborative arrangement because Cullinan is an active participant in the development of zipalertinib. Payments made to or received from Taiho for zipalertinib development activities after the execution of the co-development agreement are recorded within research and development expenses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded research and development expense of $5.5 million and $10.2 million, respectively, related to its share of costs incurred by Taiho. Cullinan incurred $2.1 million and $3.1 million of costs that were reimbursable by Taiho during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, which were recorded as a reduction to research and development expenses. The net amount of $3.4 million due to Taiho was recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities as of June 30, 2023.
