AGC Letter of Intent

 

On October 31, 2024, Genenta Science S.p.A. (“Genenta”) entered into a letter of intent (the “LOI”) with AGC Biologics S.p.A. (“AGC”), pursuant to which Genenta and AGC agreed to negotiate the terms of a development and manufacturing services agreement for Genenta’s cell therapy products (the “Proposed Agreement”) and to execute the Proposed Agreement by December 15, 2024 (the “Negotiation End Date”). Pursuant to the LOI, AGC shall: (i) reserve an exclusive GMP suite (the “EGS”) in accordance with the terms of the LOI; and (ii) commit a dedicated team of five (5) full-time employees where, upon approval of the EGS by the Agenzia Italiana del Farmaco, shall be made available for the exclusive benefit of Genenta for use in connection with the services pursuant to the Proposed Agreement. If the Proposed Agreement is not executed by the Negotiation End Date, Genenta shall pay to AGC: (i) €100,000 for the reservation of the EGS; and (ii) €140,000 per month for twelve (12) months starting from the Negotiation End Date.

 

The above description of the LOI is qualified in its entirety by reference to the LOI, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Update Regarding Intellectual Property

 

In April 2024, Genenta filed a patent application relating to methods of treating solid cancers with Temferon in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor and, in September 2024, Genenta filed a patent application relating to methods of treating renal cell carcinoma with Temferon in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor (together, the “Provisional Patents”). The Provisional Patents are wholly owned by Genenta.

 

In addition, Genenta’s option rights to include three additional patent families in the license granted to Genenta under the Original License Agreement with San Raffaele Hospital (Ospedale San Raffaele or “OSR”) expired. The expiration of these option rights will not have a material adverse effect on Genenta’s business, financial condition or results of operations. Genenta is able to make Temferon without access to these patent families. The patent families to which Genenta has rights under the Amended and Restated License Agreement (“ARLA”) are set forth in the table below:
