ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On January 12, 2009, DexCom, Inc. (“DexCom”), entered into an Amended and Restated Joint Development Agreement and OUS Commercialization Agreement (collectively, the “Agreements”) with Animas Corporation (“Animas”) with respect to DexCom’s continuous glucose monitoring (“CGM”) technology. Animas makes and sells insulin pumps, and pursuant to the Agreements, Animas will receive an exclusive right to develop and market CGM-enabled ambulatory insulin pumps outside the United States. Animas also retains the non-exclusive right to develop and market CGM-enabled ambulatory insulin pumps within the United States. Under the Amended and Restated Joint Development Agreement, Animas will pay DexCom a one-time $5 million milestone payment upon the first regulatory body approval outside the United States for the new system. In addition, Animas will contribute $300,000 to offset a portion of DexCom’s development expenses for the new system. The OUS Commercialization Agreement provides Animas with non-exclusive distribution rights of DexCom sensors and transmitters to users of the integrated system and provides DexCom with a royalty of $200 for each CGM-enabled pump sold outside the United States. The initial term of the Amended and Restated Joint Development Agreement is three years and the initial term of the OUS Commercialization Agreement is three years from the first commercial product launch. The initial terms of both Agreements automatically renew unless either party notifies the other that it desires the Agreements to expire upon their initial term.
