The agreements also provide for the potential issuance of $30 million in additional shares of Class A Common Stock to G42 Investments (or cash in lieu of such issuance at the option of G42 Investments) if the United States Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") approves the marketing and sale of a pharmaceutical product containing TTP399, a liver selective glucokinase activator, as the active ingredient for treatment of type 1 diabetes in the United States.

"We have focused substantial energy and resources on TTP399 since obtaining Breakthrough Therapy designation from the FDA in April 2021 and are thrilled to welcome a partner to work with us to accelerate the development and potential approval and commercialization of this treatment. G42 Healthcare brings a unique combination of strong commitment to the development of new impactful drugs and treatments, as demonstrated by their success and their leadership on COVID-19 testing and other product and service offerings in the healthcare spectrum, and substantial resources, making them an ideal partner for this program. This investment into vTv will fund a substantial portion of our Phase 3 clinical trials for TTP399 in the United States and the collaboration with G42 will fund certain of the Phase 3 clinical trials that will be conducted in other territories. We are excited to partner with the G42 Healthcare team as we launch our Phase 3 clinical trials and work together towards approval and commercialization of this treatment for type 1 diabetes," said Rich Nelson, Interim Chief Executive Officer of vTv.
Dr. Fahed Al Marzooqi, the Chief Operating Officer of G42 Healthcare, noted that "We have a deep commitment to collaborating with international organizations to share our knowledge and expertise in the consumer and clinical health spectrum and we look forward to working together with vTv to further develop and commercialize this important treatment. As we move ahead, we will continue to join forces with the world's best to innovate and invest in science and create the next wave of medicines to future-proof the health of nations."
