LMAO !
There was NO payment made to CBAI....PERIOD.
CBAI paid a royalty....instead of litigating..
Management of Cord Partners determined to settle, rather than to litigate, this matter. As a result, PharmaStem and Cord Partners entered into a Patent License Agreement in March 2004. Pursuant to the Patent License Agreement, Cord Partners may, on a non-exclusive basis, collect, process and store cord blood utilizing PharmaStem technology and processes covered by its patents for so long as the patents may remain in effect. All of the patents are scheduled to expire in 2010. Cord Partners is obligated under the Patent License Agreement to pay royalties to PharmaStem of 15% of all revenues generated by Cord Partners from the collection and storage of cord blood on and after January 1, 2004. Other than royalties, no amount is payable by Cord Partners to PharmaStem
