Patent issue settled and new 5 year agreement with BSP
On 14 October 2024, based on the information we had on hand at the time, we advised the market
about a breach of contract by Bluestone Pharma GmbH (BSP) and Lactosan GmbH & Co. KG
(Lactosan).
Since then, BSP and BLIS Technologies Limited (BLIS) have been progressing communications in
relation to the patent applications filed by BSP. BLIS and BSP are pleased to report that these
negotiations have concluded, with BSP and BLIS agreeing that the patent applications will be jointly
owned. This is a positive step forward for both BLIS, BSP and Lactosan, and provides certainty of
access for BLIS and its licensees to this market leading technology developed, and contributed to, by
BLIS, BSP and Lactosan. As part of this arrangement, BLIS, BSP and Lactosan have released each
other of all claims and causes of action arising from the publication of the patent applications.
BLIS would like to thank both BSP and Lactosan for their willingness to engage positively on this
matter and the transparent and ethical manner in which both parties have conducted themselves
during the course of the negotiations.
BLIS and BSP are also pleased to announce they have renegotiated a five year extension to their
existing supply agreement that was scheduled to expire this month.
