Pharmaceutical

Represented a privately held pharmaceutical company developing molecular imaging compounds, in its acquisition by a major pharmaceutical company, transaction completed in December 2010. Pepper had represented the client through several rounds of venture capital financing and through much of a proposed IPO before the acquisition was proposed. We then counseled the client through a complex and extremely expedited M&A process involving multiple bidders and intricate milestone provisions. Under the terms of the agreement, the purchaser agreed to an upfront payment of $300 million, with up to $500 million in additional payments contingent upon potential future regulatory and commercial milestones. |
