The royalty term will continue until the later of the expiration of the last Galapagos patent covering the product, the expiration of regulatory exclusivity, or twenty years after the separation date..
In the framework of this intended separation, Gilead has furthermore agreed to waive its rights under the option, license and collaboration agreement with respect to all of Galapagos’ and its affiliates’ small molecule research and development activities and programs. This waiver allows us to wind down, license, divest, partner, or take other similar actions in respect of the small molecule programs without Gilead’s consent or veto.

We would also share future global development costs for filgotinib equally with Gilead until a predetermined level, in lieu of the 80/20 cost split provided by the original agreement.
In December 2020, we agreed under a binding term sheet to further amend the collaboration agreement between us and Gilead, and as a result of such amendment we have assumed all development, manufacturing, commercialization and certain other rights for filgotinib in Europe.

Until December 31, 2021, we continued to share equally with Gilead in the net profit and net losses in each of the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and UK. All commercial activities and economics concerning filgotinib in Europe transferred to us as of January 1, 2022, subject
