In connection with the settlement, the parties to the Infringement Case issued the following joint statement:  "The parties have agreed to settle the dispute.  All claims and counter-claims will be dismissed with prejudice.  Each party believes that this settlement will allow it to focus greater time and resources on its ongoing clinical programs." <br><br>On September 14, 2015, the Company also announced the settlement of its wrongful termination litigation with Rob Williams (the "Employment Litigation"), captioned Rob Williams v.
