The closing has led to a payment to IBA of 16.3 million euros. The contract includes an earn out of 1 million euros based on Cisbio Bioassays' full year 2013 consolidated results, an earn out of 1.4 million euros if and when certain long-term receivables are collected (expected in 2015), and a vendor loan of 7.5 million euros repayable over a maximum of seven years based on the achievement of certain milestones.
