Item 1.01.  Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously announced on September 10, 2010, EntreMed, Inc. (the "Company") and Selected Value Therapeutics I, LLC ("SVT") entered into an agreement whereby the Company granted SVT an option to acquire certain license, development and commercialization rights for ENMD-2076, the Company's lead compound, in China and certain of its territories (the "China Rights Agreement").   On June 7, 2011, as previously announced, SVT exercised its right under the China Rights Agreement to acquire such license to develop and commercialize ENMD-2076 and the parties commenced negotiations regarding a definitive license agreement.
On December 31, 2011, the parties mutually agreed to amend the China Rights Agreement.  The amendment was solely to extend the termination date of the China Rights Agreement from December 31, 2011 to January 31, 2012 to permit the parties to continue negotiating the terms and conditions of the license agreement.
The China Rights Agreement was previously filed as Exhbit 10.2 to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, and was described in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K on September 10, 2010.
