As per each of the respective Agreements, each of the Company and BIOFIRST shall receive a total licensing fee of $33,500,000, composed of an upfront payment of $30,000,000, which can instead be paid with 5 million shares of FEYE stock at $6/share within 30 days after the execution of the Agreement, and a $3,500,000 cash milestone payment, due 30 days upon completion of next round fundraising. Additionally, each of the Company and BIOFIRST are eligible to receive royalties of 5% of net Sales.
