Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 10, 2017, Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) and Patheon UK Limited (“Patheon”) entered into an Amended and Restated Product Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Product Agreement”), which amends and restates in its entirety the Product Agreement entered into on November 28, 2016 between the Company and Patheon (the “Original Product Agreement”), for Patheon’s manufacture of commercial supplies of INGREZZA® (valbenazine) capsules at Patheon’s manufacturing site.

The Amended and Restated Product Agreement contains the following changes from the Original Product Agreement: (i) the finalization of the batch sizes and the corresponding pricing for 80 mg INGREZZA capsules; and (ii) a clarification of the testing requirements related to the manufacture of INGREZZA. All other terms and conditions of the Original Product Agreement, as described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 25, 2017, and attached to such Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.2, remain substantially the same.

The foregoing does not purport to be a complete description of the Amended and Restated Product Agreement, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Product Agreement, a copy of which will be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017.
