Question:

If I recall correctly, you said sometime back that you felt that KDUS might be earning $4 or so per share by 2004 or 2005 from royalties from their patents (which was why you were long the stock as I recall). What I don't get is the mechanics of how this happens. From the 10-Q:

On July 30, 1999, the Company sold its drug discovery assets to OSI Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. ("OSI") and ceased its internal drug discovery operations and research efforts for
collaborative partners.

The Company expects to generate revenues in the future only if it is able to license its technologies.


If the assets are sold, wouldn't that include patents? Or does the sale of assets to OSI include a royalty provision? Or would the royalties come via KDUS's interest in Axiom or Laurel Partners? Any clarification would be appreciated.
