Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 9, 2022, AnaptysBio, Inc. (“AnaptysBio”) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a wholly-owned subsidiary of DRI Healthcare Trust (“DRI”) to monetize all of AnaptysBio’s future royalties on global net sales of Zejula under AnaptysBio’s Confidential Settlement and Modification Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”), with Tesaro, Inc., Tesaro Development, Ltd., and GlaxoSmithKline LLC (collectively, “GSK”), dated as of October 23, 2020.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, DRI paid to AnaptysBio $35 million in an upfront payment in exchange for all royalties payable by GSK to AnaptysBio under the Settlement Agreement on global net sales of Zejula starting in July 2022 (the “Purchased Royalty Interest”). Under the Settlement Agreement, the royalty is paid at a rate of 1%, but is subject to reduction due to royalties paid to third parties, with a minimum royalty rate payable under the Settlement Agreement of 0.5% of global net sales of Zejula. The current effective royalty rate is 0.5%.
Under the Purchase Agreement, AnaptysBio is entitled to receive an additional $10 million payment from DRI if Zejula is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) for the treatment of endometrial cancer on or prior to December 31, 2025.
Under the Purchase Agreement, and in connection with its sale of the Purchased Royalty Interest, AnaptysBio has agreed to certain covenants with respect to the exercise of its rights under the Settlement Agreement, including with respect to AnaptysBio’s right to amend, assign and terminate the Settlement Agreement. The Purchase Agreement contains other customary terms and conditions, including representations and warranties, covenants and indemnification obligations in favor of each party.
The foregoing summary of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement and the Settlement Agreement. A copy of the Settlement Agreement is available as Exhibit 10.18 to AnaptysBio’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2020. A copy of the Purchase Agreement will be filed as an exhibit to AnaptysBio’s Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q for the quarterly period ending September 30, 2022. The Purchase Agreement will be filed to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about AnaptysBio, DRI or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The representations and warranties of the parties contained in the Purchase Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of the parties thereto.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD.
On September 12, 2022, AnaptysBio updated its corporate investor presentation, a full copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any other filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
