Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

License Agreement

On December 14, 2012, Amarantus Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an exclusive license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Memory Dx, LLC (“MDx”) under which MDx granted to the Company an exclusive worldwide license to develop, manufacture, market, sell and import medical devices under MDx’s intellectual property pertaining to Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis (the “License”).

 

As consideration for the License, the Company will issue 2,000,000 shares of its common stock to MDx and will pay MDx a royalty equal to 9% of the net proceeds of all sales resulting from the License. Further, MDx, with the Company’s engagement, is to complete a validation study regarding a blood test for the detection of Alzheimer’s disease. To prepare the laboratory for this study, the Company is to pay to MDx $15,000 initially upon execution of the License Agreement, $15,000 in 30 days following the execution of the License Agreement, and $20,000 in 60 days following the execution of the License Agreement. The Company will also assist MDx in fund raising, and, upon successful completion of the validation study, pay MDx $1,000,000 in cash or Company stock. The Company may sell, sub-license or assign the License Agreement and has an option to terminate the License Agreement upon 30 days written notice if MDx is unable to meet its obligations regarding the validation study.

 

The above summary of the material terms of the License Agreement does not purport to be complete and provides only a general description of the License Agreement and, thus, should be read together with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the entire License Agreement, which has been filed as Exhibit 10.01 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
