GTC Biotherapeutics obtains license to nuclear transfer patents
Nuclear transfer may also be used to speed the development of large scale transgenic production capacity. Financial terms include an upfront payment of $200,000 to Start and a total of 278,370 shares of GTCB common stock, based on the 10-day average closing price ending April 5, divided equally between Start and Exeter. There will also be a royalty payable to Start for those products developed with the patented nuclear transfer technology. The license agreement remains in place through the last patent to expire, which is expected in 2016 for the currently issued patents.
