NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On April 20, 2020, the Company established QSAM Therapeutics Inc. (“QSAM”), as a wholly-owned subsidiary incorporated in the state of Texas. On the same date, QSAM executed a Patent and Technology License Agreement and Trademark Assignment (the “License Agreement”) with IGL Pharma, Inc. (“IGL”).

 

The License Agreement provides QSAM with exclusive, worldwide and sub-licensable rights to all of IGL’s patents, product data and knowhow with respect to Samaium-153 DOTMP (the “Technology”), a clinical stage novel radiopharmaceutical meant to treat different types of bone cancer and related diseases. The Technology was developed by ISO Therapeutics Group, LLC (“ISO”) and previously transferred to IGL, a company majority owned by the founders of ISO. The License Agreement also transfers to QSAM the rights to the product name CycloSam for the Technology, and provides QSAM a first right of refusal to license other IGL/ISO technologies in the future.

 

The License Agreement is for 20 years or until the expiration of the multiple patents covered under the license, and requires multiple milestone based payments including: $60,000 and other expense reimbursements within 60 days of signing, up to $150,000 as the Technology advances through multiple stages of clinical trials, and $1.5 million upon commercialization. IGL will also receive equity in QSAM equal to 5% of the company to be issued within 60 days of signing. Upon commercialization, IGL will receive an on-going royalty equal to 4.5% of Net Sales, as defined in the License Agreement, and up to 50% of any Sublicense Consideration received by QSAM, as defined in the License Agreement. QSAM will also pay for ongoing patent filing and maintenance fees, and has certain requirements to defend the patents against infringement claims. The parties have agreed to mutual indemnification.

 

Either party may terminate the License Agreement 30 days after notice in the event of an uncured breach, or immediately in the case of bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party. QSAM may terminate for any reason upon 30 days’ notice. In the case IGL terminates due to an uncured QSAM breach, IGL will repay to QSAM 25% of its direct clinical costs to assume ownership of data and other information gained in that process.

 

In connection with the License Agreement, QSAM signed a two-year Consulting and Confidentiality Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with IGL, which provides IGL with payments of $8,500 per month starting 60 days after signing. The Consulting Agreement is to provide QSAM with additional consulting and advisory services from the Technology’s founders to assist in the clinical development of the Technology.

 

Douglas Baum, a Director of the Company, has been named President and CEO of the subsidiary QSAM, with authority to start building a team to oversee clinical trials and other operations for the development and commercialization of the Technology.
