Litigation against BioSpecifics Technologies Corp.
On February 15, 2011, we filed a complaint against BioSpecifics Technologies Corp. (BioSpecifics) alleging that BioSpecifics has breached the Amended and Restated Development and License Agreement, dated as of December 11, 2008, between us and BioSpecifics (the BioSpecifics Agreement) by its commencement of clinical trials for the use of injectable collagenase to treat canine lipomas without the prior knowledge and approval of the parties Joint Development Committee (JDC). We are seeking preliminary and permanent injunctions ordering BioSpecifics to, among other things, (a) suspend its canine lipoma clinical trial known as Chien-803 and (b) refrain from initiating any new clinical trials related to collagenase until such time as any such trial has been reviewed and approved by the parties JDC pursuant to the terms of the BioSpecifics Agreement. In addition, we are seeking a declaratory judgment as to the rights and responsibilities of the JDC under the Biospecifics Agreement. The suit was filed in the Court of Common Pleas, Chester County, Pennsylvania. The court ordered that the papers filed with the court were to be deemed under seal and not available to the public until further order.
