Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 5, 2016, Nemus Bioscience, Inc., or Nemus, entered into a letter agreement, or Agreement, with Albany Molecular Research Inc., or AMRI, pursuant to which AMRI is to provide services to Nemus for process development and analytical method development and qualification for Nemus’ prodrug of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, as well as for sample production and a stability study.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Nemus will pay an estimated $154,000 to $183,000 in fees and expenses for the initial evaluation and development of a process for the production of Nemus’s pro-drug of THC to ensure reproducibility, quality and safety and an estimated $142,900 for analytical method development and qualification.  After the initial evaluation and development, Nemus has agreed to pay additional fees and expenses for sample production of Nemus’s pro-drug of THC and a stability study, as well as possible extensions to or modifications of the aforementioned projects.

Nemus may at any time cancel or delay any project under the Agreement prior to the scheduled start date.  Nemus must reimburse AMRI for costs incurred prior to and including the date of cancellation plus any reasonable and foreseeable costs associated with stopping work on any project, including AMRI’s loss of revenue incurred as the result of reserving production facilities for Nemus’ exclusive use.  If any final product or step of manufacture fails or results in a deviation or unexpected result through no fault of AMRI, the parties will mutually agree in writing on a supplemental proposal or work order for additional fees.

Nemus may terminate the Agreement in whole or in part at any time upon 30 days’ written notice.  Either party may terminate the Agreement in writing in the event of default by the other party that is not cured within 30 days of receipt of notice of default for the following events of default: (i) insolvency of such party, (ii) any assignment for the benefit of creditors of such party, (iii) voluntary or involuntary filing of a petition order or other decree in bankruptcy by or against such party, (iv) commencement of any proceeding for liquidation of, reorganization of, or the composition, extension, arrangement or readjustment of the obligations of such party, (v) failure by such party to comply with any provision of the Agreement in any material respect, and (vi) proof that any representations by such party were false when made.

The foregoing description of the Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement.
