Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On October 30, 2012 Orgenesis Inc. (the “Company”) and Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology (“Fraunhofer IGB”) entered into a service agreement to develop a pilot process to manufacture human autologous insulin-producing cell transplants based on the Orgenesis technology. It is anticipated that the subsequent establishment of a fully GMP-compliant production process will, in turn, enable Orgenesis to obtain authorization for the production of clinical grade material to be used in a first-in-man study of the Company’s diabetes treatment product candidate.
The Company will provide Fraunhofer IGB with required information and cell material to perform certain experiments set out in work packages. Times for each of the work packages are dependent on a close collaboration with the Company providing sufficient amounts of cell material in time, method transfer and performing functional studies with cell material produced by the Fraunhofer IGB.
The Company will access and pay for the work packages on a case by case arrangement. Agreements on new work packages to be included during the project and the elimination of work packages can be made during the tenure. Payments by the Company are due on the receipt of the final work package reports from Fraunhofer IGB by work package:
The agreement will continue until Fraunhofer IGB completes all their work packages or, should no essential progress in work be achieved within a significant period of time, then each contracting party shall be entitled to terminate the contract with one month notice.
A copy of the service agreement is attached as exhibit 10.1 to this current report on Form 8-K.
