 in October 2020. In connection with the agreement that we entered into with Gilead pursuant to the binding term sheet entered into in December 2020 to amend the existing arrangement for the commercialization and development of filgotinib, Gilead has agreed to irrevocably pay Galapagos €160 million, subject to certain adjustments for higher than budgeted development costs. Gilead paid €35 million in January 2021 an additional €75 million in April 2021 and €50 million in 2022. In addition, we will no longer be eligible to receive any future milestone payments relating to filgotinib in Europe. However, we will remain eligible to receive tiered royalty percentages ranging from 20% to 30% on Gilead's global net sales of filgotinib outside of Europe and future development and regulatory milestone-based payments of up to $275 million and sales-based milestone payments of up to $600 million. All payments by Gilead to us are made in U.S. dollars. 
Under the terms of the collaboration, Gilead is primarily responsible for seeking regulatory approval of filgotinib in countries outside of Europe. Pursuant to the amended arrangements agreed in December 2020, we are responsible for commercializing filgotinib in Europe.
Under the amended and restated filgotinib agreement, we agreed on a 50% / 50% cost split for development costs of filgotinib, in lieu of the 20% (us) /80% (Gilead) cost split under the original filgotinib agreement. Beginning on January 1, 2021, we bore the development costs for certain studies, in lieu of the equal cost split contemplated by the 2019 agreement. These studies include the DARWIN3, FINCH4, FILOSOPHY, and Phase 4 studies and registries in RA, MANTA and MANTA-RAy, the PENGUIN1 and 2 and EQUATOR2 studies in PsA, the SEALION1 and 2 studies in AS, the HUMBOLDT study in uveitis in addition to other clinical and non-clinical expenses supporting these studies and support for any investigator sponsored trials in non-IBD conditions and non-clinical costs on all current trials. The existing 50/50 global development cost sharing arrangement will continue for the following studies: SELECTION and its long-term extension study (LTE) in UC,
