The Amendment provides for milestone payments to the Company of up to $973,482. Under the terms of the Research Agreement, Celgene will provide certain proprietary materials to MetaStat and MetaStat will evaluate Celgene’s proprietary materials in the Company’s metastatic cell line and animal nonclinical models. The milestone schedule calls for Celgene to pay the Company $486,741 upon execution of the Amendment and the balance in accordance with the completion of three (3) milestones to Celgene’s reasonable satisfaction. The term of the Research Agreement is one (1) year, unless extended by the parties. Either party may terminate the Research Agreement with thirty (30) days prior written notice.
