Item 8.01 Other Events
On April 4, 2013, Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has entered into a definitive agreement with Celgene Corporation (“Celgene”) to sell to Celgene four Cyclacel-owned patents related to the use of romidepsin injection. In connection with the agreement, Celgene has made to Cyclacel a one-time payment of $5.5 million. As a result, the litigation between Cyclacel and Celgene in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, case number 1:10-cv-00348-GMS, is moot. Cyclacel and Celgene have filed a joint stipulation and order for dismissal requesting the Court to enter an order dismissing the litigation. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
