Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 8, 2011, ACADIA Pharmaceuticals Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nordsviten AB, entered into a termination agreement (the "Agreement") with Wihlborgs Fastigheter AB and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Medeon Fastigheter AB. Pursuant to the Agreement, the parties resolved all matters related to Nordsviten's lease for premises located in Malmo, Sweden. Nordsviten had signed a 10-year lease for the premises with Medeon that had begun in June 2005. The premises were constructed pursuant to a general agreement (the "General Agreement") between ACADIA and Wihlborgs.

Pursuant to the Agreement, ACADIA made a one-time payment of approximately $690,000 and issued 782,339 shares of its common stock to Medeon. The shares of common stock were issued pursuant to Registration Statement No. 333-161059. ACADIA and Nordsvisten will not have any future obligations with respect to the leased premises or under the General Agreement and Medeon and Wihlborgs have provided a full release of claims to ACADIA and Nordsviten. As a result of the Agreement, ACADIA expects to save approximately $1.5 million in facility and related expenses on an annual basis.
