Item 8.01 Other Events.
On March 20, 2014, Nuvilex, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Company”), entered into a manufacturing agreement (“Agreement”) with Austrianova Singapore Pte. Ltd. ("Austrianova"), a subsidiary of SG Austria Pte. Ltd. in which the Company is a partial owner, to perform the cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practices)-compliant encapsulation of live cells to be used for the Company’s clinical trials in patients with advanced, inoperable pancreatic cancer and associated conditions and other types of cancer. The Agreement has an indefinite term and may not be terminated by either party except in the case of a continuing and material breach by the other party and failure to cure such within 60 days following written notice or certain events of bankruptcy.
The Company made and initial payment to Austrianova as part of a “set-up fee” to encapsulate the live cells required by the Company for use in its clinical trials. Austrianova was contracted to perform the encapsulation because it developed and matured the cellulose-based live-cell encapsulation process, known as “Cell-in-a-Box®,” that the Company plans to use in the trials.
On March 20, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing that the manufacturing agreement has been entered into by the Company and Nuvilex. A copy of the press release is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit 99.1.
