Item 8.01 Other Events.

On February 26, 2021, our partner Eli Lilly and Company (“Lilly”) announced the entry into a purchase agreement with the U.S. government to supply a minimum of 100,000 additional doses of bamlanivimab (LY-CoV555) 700 mg and etesevimab (LY-CoV016) 1400 mg together. The doses are expected to be delivered through March 31, 2021. The U.S. government has the option to purchase up to an additional 1,100,000 doses from Lilly through November 25, 2021, under the same terms as the initial purchase. Bamlanivimab is an antibody co-developed by us and Lilly designed to treat and prevent COVID-19. Pursuant to our multi-year strategic Research Collaboration and License Agreement (the “RCLA”), with Lilly, for COVID-19, we are eligible to receive royalties in the low- to mid-teens for aggregate sales of bamlanivimab below $125.0 million and mid-teens to mid-twenties on aggregate sales above $125.0 million. In the event that bamlanivimab is sold together with other antibodies, such as etesevimab, then the royalty will be based on the portion of the revenue from such sales attributable to bamlanivimab as set forth in more detail in the RCLA.
