Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 20, 2020, NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation (“NeuroOne”) entered into an exclusive development and distribution agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Zimmer, Inc. (“Zimmer”), pursuant to which NeuroOne granted Zimmer exclusive global rights to distribute NeuroOne’s strip and grid cortical electrodes (the “Strip/Grid Products”) and electrode cable assembly products (the “Electrode Cable Assembly Products”). Additionally, NeuroOne granted Zimmer the exclusive right and license to distribute certain depth electrodes developed by NeuroOne (“SEEG Products”, and together with the Strip/Grid Products and Electrode Cable Assembly Products, the “Products”). The parties have agreed to collaborate with respect to development activities under the Development Agreement through a joint development committee composed of an equal number of representatives of Zimmer and NeuroOne.

 

Under the terms of the Development Agreement, NeuroOne will be responsible for all costs and expenses related to developing the Products, and Zimmer will be responsible for all costs and expenses related to the commercialization of the Products. In addition to the Development Agreement, Zimmer and NeuroOne have entered into a Manufacturing and Supply Agreement (the “MS Agreement”) and a supplier quality agreement (the “Quality Agreement”) with respect to the manufacturing and supply of the Products.

 

Except as otherwise provided in the Development Agreement, NeuroOne will be responsible for performing all development activities, including non-clinical and clinical studies directed at obtaining regulatory approval of each Product. Zimmer has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to promote, market and sell each Product following the “Product Availability Date” (as defined in the Development Agreement) for such Product.

 

Pursuant to the Development Agreement, Zimmer will make an upfront payment of $2.0 million to NeuroOne within 10 business days of the effective date of the Development Agreement. Additionally, in order to maintain the exclusivity of its distribution license for the SEEG Products, Zimmer must pay an additional fee to NeuroOne within 60 days following the Product Availability Date for the SEEG Products.

 

The Development Agreement will expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of the first commercial sale of the last of the Products to achieve a first commercial sale, unless terminated earlier pursuant to its terms. Either party may terminate the Agreement (x) with written notice for the other party’s material breach following a cure period or (y) if the other party becomes subject to certain insolvency proceedings. In addition, Zimmer may terminate the Development Agreement for any reason with 90 days’ written notice, and NeuroOne may terminate the Development Agreement if Zimmer acquires or directly or indirectly owns a controlling interest in certain competitors of NeuroOne.

 

Each of Zimmer and NeuroOne has agreed to indemnify the other party against certain losses and expenses relating to the development or commercialization of a Product by the indemnifying party, the negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnifying party or its directors, officers, employees or agents or a breach of the indemnifying party’s representations, warranties or covenants.

 

The foregoing description of the Development Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Development Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
