Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 2, 2021, Phathom Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Commercial Supply Agreement (the “Supply Agreement”) with Catalent Pharma Solutions, LLC (“Catalent”), pursuant to which Catalent has agreed to supply to the Company commercial quantities of vonoprazan fumarate tablets (“Finished Tablets”).

Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, Catalent has agreed to supply the Company with, and the Company has agreed to purchase from Catalent, Finished Tablets at an agreed upon price per unit. The price per unit may be adjusted annually based on increases in costs incurred by Catalent. The Supply Agreement requires the Company to purchase a specified percentage of its requirements of Finished Tablets from Catalent, which percentage is subject to adjustment following the third (3rd) anniversary of the first day of the calendar quarter during which Catalent is scheduled to deliver to the Company the initial Finished Tablets intended for commercial sale, excluding validation batches (the “Commencement Date”).

Unless terminated earlier, the term of the Supply Agreement extends for a period of five (5) years from the Commencement Date (the “Initial Term”). The Supply Agreement will extend automatically for additional two (2) year periods unless terminated by either party upon at least twenty four (24) months prior written notice. The Supply Agreement may also be terminated at any time upon written notice by either party if the other party has failed to remedy a material breach of the terms of the Supply Agreement within a specified period following receipt of written notice of such breach.

The Supply Agreement also includes customary provisions relating to, among others, forecasts, delivery and payments, handling and transport, intellectual property, confidentiality, warranties and indemnification. The foregoing description of the Supply Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Supply Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The Company intends to redact certain portions of the Supply Agreement for confidentiality purposes.
