 development work as necessary to allow us to seek a PMA from the FDA. ADVA-Tec is responsible for providing us with clinical trial and commercial supplies of Ovaprene, either directly or through a CMO, on commercially reasonable terms, and, except under limited circumstances, we may not obtain supplies of Ovaprene from another source.

Under the license agreement, in addition to an exclusive, sublicensable license to ADVA-Tec’s and its affiliates’ intellectual property rights for all uses of Ovaprene as a human contraceptive device, we have a right of first refusal to license these patents and patent applications for additional indications.

Milestone Payments. We may pay to ADVA-Tec: (1) up to $13.0 million in the aggregate based on the achievement of specified development and regulatory milestones and (2) up to $20 million in the aggregate based on the achievement of certain worldwide net sales milestones. The future development and regulatory milestones include: successful completion of a Phase 3/pivotal clinical trial; the FDA’s acceptance of a PMA filing for Ovaprene; the FDA’s approval of the PMA for Ovaprene; CE Marking of Ovaprene in at least three designated European countries; obtaining regulatory approval in at least three designated European countries; and obtaining regulatory approval in Japan. 

Royalty Payments. ADVA-Tec is eligible to receive royalties based on aggregate annual net sales of Ovaprene in specified regions at a royalty rate that will vary between 1% and 10% and will increase based on various net sales thresholds, subject to customary reductions and offsets.

Sublicense Revenue Payments. If we sublicense our rights under the license agreement, in lieu of royalty payments to ADVA-Tec, ADVA-Tec is eligible to receive a double-digit percentage of sublicense revenue received by us during the royalty term; provided, however, that for sublicense revenue we receive prior to the first commercial sale of a licensed product that represents an upfront payment or license fee due on or around the effective date of the sublicense, ADVA-Tec is eligible to receive a single-digit percentage of that sublicense revenue. 

Term. Unless earlier terminated, the license we received under the agreement continues on a country-by-country basis until the later of the life of the licensed patents or our last commercial sale of Ovaprene. In addition to customary termination rights for both parties: (A) we may terminate the agreement with or without cause in whole or on a country
