| [02-December-2025] |
BELLEVUE, Wash., Dec. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- OSR Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSRH) today provided an update regarding the previously announced non-binding term sheet between its subsidiary, Vaximm AG, and BCM Europe AG ("BCME"). The parties have agreed to shorten the exclusivity period from six months to three months, reflecting the strong alignment and confidence between Vaximm and BCME in advancing a definitive exclusive global licensing agreement for VXM01, Vaximm's first-in-class orally administered cancer immunotherapy platform.
Under the updated timeline, Vaximm and BCME now expect to negotiate and finalize a definitive agreement within three months, supported by BCME's demonstrated ability to rapidly organize the financing and partnering infrastructure required for a potential global out-license to a major pharmaceutical company, as well as its capacity to expedite and streamline the due-diligence processes. The contemplated financial terms remain unchanged and include:
"Accelerating the exclusivity timeline reflects our confidence in BCME's ability to efficiently mobilize capital and advance due diligence for VXM01," said Andreas Niethammer, Chief Executive Officer of Vaximm AG, who officially assumed the CEO role on December 1, 2025. "This streamlined process puts us in an even stronger position to move quickly toward a definitive global licensing agreement that maximizes the value and reach of our oral T-cell immunotherapy platform. In parallel, we continue to evaluate select in-licensing opportunities that could complement Vaximm's technology base and expand our long-term strategic footprint." "BCME has shown clear commitment and capability to execute on this opportunity at an accelerated pace," said Tim Smith, Head of IR, OSR Holdings. "By moving to a three-month exclusivity period through February 2026, we underscore our confidence in BCME's financial readiness and our shared objective to position VXM01 for a major pharmaceutical partnership." As previously disclosed, the term sheet also includes an optional blockchain-based royalty participation mechanism utilizing "TAC" tokens to represent potential future royalty streams. This mechanism remains available should Vaximm elect to access development capital through the BCM Royalty Fund. During the revised exclusivity period, Vaximm and BCME will continue confirmatory diligence, finalize partnering materials, and complete the documentation required for a definitive agreement. Vaximm retains full ownership of VXM01 intellectual property unless and until a definitive license is executed. About OSR Holdings, Inc. OSR Holdings, Inc.
