$200M seems like an exorbitant price to pay for a 2% reduction in royalties. Wouldn't that same amount invested in CTIC, for example, produce a lot more value than the royalties saved????

re:

16:15 ET Cubist Pharma to purchase 2% reduction in Cubicin royalty rate from LLY (CBST) 10.44 -0.08: Co today announced that it entered into definitive agreements to purchase from Eli Lilly (LLY) a 2% reduction in the royalties payable to Lilly on net sales of Cubicin. Cubist acquired worldwide development and commercialization rights to daptomycin from Lilly in 1997. Upon the closing of the transaction, Cubist will issue to Lilly $20 mln in Cubist common stock with associated registration rights.
