On June 27, 2020, Aytu BioScience, Inc. (the “Company”) and Biolidics, Limited (“Biolidics”) signed a letter of intent to, among other things, document the parties’ mutual intention to enter into a joint development agreement (the “Joint Development Agreement”) in order to advance the development of and, if successful, commercialize a new SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic test (the \”Proposed Collaboration\”). The Company and Biolidics are in the process of negotiating the definitive terms of this Proposed Collaboration. The Company and Biolidics believe a next generation SARS-CoV-2 test may address an important clinical need as the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (“SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus” or “COVID-19”) health crisis continues to unfold and the needs associated with patient testing continue to evolve. Stockholders are reminded that there can be no assurance the Company will enter into a Joint Development Agreement with Biolidics for the Proposed Collaboration or that a new SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic test will be successfully developed. The Company will make the appropriate announcement(s) if and when there are further material developments relating to the Proposed Collaboration.

As previously announced, the Company also has a distribution agreement in place with L.B Resources, Limited (L.B. Resources) and is sourcing an FDA Emergency Use Authorized SARS-CoV-2 IgG/IgM antibody test kits (“Orient Gene Test Kit(s)”) manufactured by Zhejiang Orient Gene Biotech, Limited (“Orient Gene”). The Orient Gene Test Kits received Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) on May 29, 2020 following the completion of the FDA’s commissioning of an independent validation, which was conducted by the National Cancer Institute. This independent laboratory evaluation demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity of the test. Virtually all antibody test kits in the Company’s warehouse and those tests that have been sold to date have been sourced from Orient Gene. Through its relationship with L.B. Resources in sourcing the Orient Gene Test Kits, the Company believes it has access to adequate supply of these FDA EUA Orient Gene Test Kits now and expects to have supply as needed in the future.

Accordingly, and in connection with the planned Joint Development Agreement, the Company and Biolidics have mutually agreed to terminate their distribution agreement with effect from June 27, 2020. Each party shall release the other party of all the obligations and duties under the Agreement, and all monies paid by the Company to Biolidics for inventory orders placed but not received will be returned. This termination does not materially affect the Company’s supply of test kits. Also, in connection with the planned Joint Development Agreement, Biolidics has begun the process to voluntarily withdraw its application to the US FDA for EUA to the FDA Serology Test Policy.
