3. LICENSE GRANT

3.1 Licensed IP Rights. Licensor hereby grants to Company an exclusive license (with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers) under the Licensed IP Rights to conduct research and to develop, make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell and import Products in the Territory for use in the Field. Company shall promptly provide Licensor with a copy of any Sublicense. Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that this grant of rights is limited to the Territory and Company further represents and warrants that it will not either directly or indirectly market or assist with the marketing or sale of Products outside of the Territory, regardless of whether patents for the Products have issued in such countries outside of the Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that Company’s right to make Product or to grant sublicenses to have Product made under the licenses from Licensor is subject to Section 3.5 below. The grant of any such sublicense hereunder will not relieve Company of its obligations under this Agreement.

3.2 Availability of the Licensed IP Rights. Each of the parties shall provide the other with a copy of all information available to such party relating to the Licensed IP Rights, Products or Technology, including without limitation: (a) regulatory submissions, (b) communications with the Competent Authorities (including the minutes of any meetings), (c) trial master files, including case report forms, (d) listings and tables of results from the clinical trials, (e) treatment-related serious adverse event reports from the clinical trials, (f) storage of and access permission to any retained samples of materials used in clinical trials, and (g) access to CROs involved in the clinical trials. Company shall use reasonable efforts to require that each of its Sublicensees and Affiliates also make such information available to Licensor for use outside of the Territory and Licensor shall use reasonable efforts to require that

each of its sublicensees and Affiliates make such information available to Company for use in the Territory.

3.3 Technical Assistance. Licensor shall provide such technical assistance to Company as Company reasonably requests regarding the Licensed IP Rights, Products or Technology.

3.4 Registrations. Licensor acknowledges and agrees that Company shall own all Registrations for Products for use in the Field in each country in the Territory. Additionally, Licensor acknowledges and agrees that Company shall have the right to conduct pre-clinical and clinical development activities outside of the Territory and Company acknowledges and agrees that Licensor shall have the right to conduct pre-clinical and clinical development activities inside the Territory. Each party hereby grants to the other a free-of-charge right to reference and use and have full access to all other Registrations and all other regulatory documents that relate to the Licensed IP Rights, Products or Technology, including INDs, BLAs, NDAs and DMFs (whether as an independent document or as part of any NDA, and all chemistry, manufacturing and controls information), and any supplements, amendments or updates to the foregoing (for the purposes of this Section, the “Right of Reference”). Company shall have the right to (sub)license the Right of Reference to its Sublicensees and Affiliates; provided, however, Company shall use reasonable efforts to require that each of its Sublicensees and Affiliates provide all reference information to Licensor as described in this Section 3.4 for use by Licensor outside of the Territory. Licensor shall have the right to (sub)license the Right of Reference to its sublicensees and affiliates. Each party shall promptly notify the other of any written or oral notices received from, or inspections by any Competent Authority relating to any such Registrations, and shall promptly inform the other party of any responses to such written notices or inspections and the resolution of any issue raised by such Competent Authority.

3.5 Manufacturing and Supply.

3.5.1 Licensor shall supply Company with 100% of Company’s (and its Affiliates’ and Sublicensees’) requirements for clinical supplies of Product and at least 75% of Company’s (and its Affiliates’ and Sublicensees’) requirements for commercial supplies of Products, in each case at a cost not to exceed Licensor’s documented COGS plus [*]% in accordance with the terms and conditions of a manufacture and supply agreement between the parties (the “Supply Agreement”). Company and Licensor will enter into the Supply Agreement in the form to be agreed within forty five days of the date of this Agreement. If Licensor is unwilling or unable, subject to the terms of the applicable Supply Agreement, to perform all of its obligations under the Supply Agreement, Company may elect to have Product made by a second source contract manufacturer (the “Contract Manufacturer”) during the term of such unwillingness or inability, as applicable, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section 3.5. Additionally and for avoidance of doubt, at all times Company is entitled to use a Contract

Manufacturer for up to 25% of Company’s (and its Affiliates’ and Sublicensees’) requirements for commercial supplies of Products.

3.5.2 Notwithstanding Company’s obligation to purchase 75% of commercial supplies of Products as set forth in Section 3.5.1, and subject to the approval rights in Section 3.5.3 below, if Company delivers to Licensor a bona fide arms length quote from a Contractor Manufacturer to produce the Product at price less than Licensor’s price under the Supply Agreement (the “Quote”) and provided that all other terms of the Quote (including but not limited to supply quantities, delivery terms and Product quality control) are substantially similar to the terms of the Supply Agreement, then Licensor shall have [*] ([*]) days to either agree to match the terms provided in the Quote for the quantity of Product specified, or waive its right to provide such Product. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this waiver shall be effective only with respect to the quantities included in the Quote and shall not waive any future rights of Licensor to manufacture the Product under the terms of the Supply Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the price or other terms of any Quote, Licensor shall have the right to supply a minimum of at least 25% of Company’s (and its Affiliates’ and Sublicensees’) aggregate requirements for commercial supplies of Products at a cost not to exceed Licensor’s documented COGS plus [*]% in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Supply Agreement.

3.5.3 The selection of the Contract Manufacturer shall be subject to the approval of Licensor, which shall not be unreasonably withheld as long as the Contract Manufacturer meets reasonable commercial and industry standards, and executes a confidentiality and non-use agreement with Licensor that is acceptable to Licensor in its reasonable discretion. In the event that Company (or an Affiliate or Sublicensee) elects to have a Contract Manufacturer supply Product: (a) Licensor shall, upon Company’s request and at Company’s expense, provide reasonable technology transfer assistance sufficient to enable Company or its designee to manufacture the relevant Product; and (b) Company shall have the right to sublicense to the Contract Manufacturer the right to use all necessary Licensed IP Rights belonging to Licensor as reasonably necessary for Contract Manufacturer to manufacture such Product. Should Company (or an Affiliate or Sublicensee) engage a Contract Manufacturer, Company shall: (i) defend, indemnify and hold Licensor harmless from all losses, liabilities, damages and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred as a result of any claim, demand, action or proceeding arising in connection with any Product produced by the Contract Manufacturer, except to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Licensor; and (ii) include in the contract manufacturing agreement an obligation that the use of Licensor’s technology shall be restricted to that necessary to manufacture the Product in the Territory for the term of the contract manufacturing agreement (and for no other purpose).

If a Product consists of components that are covered by Licensor’s Valid Claims, plus additional active pharmaceutical agents, or functional components reasonable necessary for formulation or delivery of the Product that are not covered by a Valid Claim, but that are covered by a valid claim of a third party patent, then for purposes of the royalty payments under Section 4.4 for Net Sales of such Products, such Net Sales, prior to the royalty calculation set forth in Section 4.4, first shall be multiplied by the fraction A/(A+B), where “A” is the value of the component covered by the Valid Claim, and “B” is the value of the active pharmaceutical agents, or the additional function components reasonable necessary for formulation or delivery of the Product that are not covered by a Valid

Claim, but that are covered by a valid claim of a third party patent, and such resulting amount shall be the “Net Sales” for purposes of the royalty calculation in Section 4.4.1 for such Product. To the extent the parties are unable to agree on the values described above, any dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 13.3 of this Agreement.

The fees charged by such accounting firm shall be paid by Licensor; provided, however, if the audit discloses that the royalties payable by Company for such period are more than one hundred five percent (105%) of the royalties actually paid for such period, then Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses charged by such accounting firm.

5.2.3 Licensor shall cause its accounting firm to retain all financial information subject to review under this Section 5.2 in strict confidence; provided, however, that Company shall have the right to require that such accounting firm, prior to conducting such audit, enter into an appropriate non-disclosure agreement with Company regarding such financial information.

7. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OBLIGATIONS

7.1 Development Committee. Upon execution of this Agreement, the parties shall establish a development committee (the “Development Committee”).

(b) [*];

(d) [*];

7.4.3 Without prejudice to any remedies as provided in this Agreement and appropriate laws, in the event Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates fails to achieve a Development Milestone, and such failure was not due to reason(s) beyond their reasonable control, Licensor shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt and without prejudice to other reasons that may be deemed beyond the reasonable control of Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates, should the failure to achieve a Development Milestone be caused by (a) a requirement by the FDA or other Competent Authority that Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates perform additional studies or trials, that Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates reformulate or alter the manufacturing process of any Product, that Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates cease any clinical trial or redesign any clinical trial, or that Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates perform any other action or cease to perform any action that otherwise delays the clinical development of any Product; or (b) the inability to procure, manufacture or have manufactured GMP-grade clinical or commercial supplies due to factors beyond the reasonable control of Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates, then such evidence presented to Licensor by Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates shall be deemed by Licensor to be beyond the reasonable control of Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates, and Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates automatically shall be granted reasonable time extensions or milestone adjustments to the extent of any such delay (the “Excused Delay”).

7.4.4 If Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates fails to achieve a Development Milestone, taking into account any Excused Delay to which Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates may be entitled, then Licensor shall grant to Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates additional time in which to achieve such Development Milestone subject to the payment to Licensor of [*] Dollars ($[*]) for each of the first two three (3) month extension periods (“Extension Periods”), and subject to the payment to Licensor of [*] Dollars ($[*]) for each of the next two Extension Periods that is requested by Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates, and subject to the payment to Licensor of [*] ($[*]) for each of the next two Extension Periods that is requested by Company, its Sublicensee or their respective Affiliates.

7.6 Reports. Within [*] ([*]) days following the end of each calendar year during the term of this Agreement, Company shall prepare and deliver to Licensor a written summary report which shall describe (a) the research performed to date employing the Licensed IP Rights, (b) the progress of the development, and testing of Products in clinical trials, and (c) the status of obtaining regulatory approvals to market Products.

To the extent that Company owns or has a sublicensable right to such Improvements, the Company hereby grants Licensor an exclusive, royalty-free (except for any royalty payable to a Third Party owner of such Improvement), fully sublicensable license to make, have made, use, sell have sold, import and export any products that include Improvements outside the Territory during the term of this Agreement. In addition, to the extent Licensor desires to continue with such right following the termination or expiration of this Agreement, Company shall grant Licensor such a license right for use outside the Territory subject to a commercially reasonable royalty.

8. CONFIDENTIALITY

8.1 Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement, and for a period of five (5) years following the expiration or earlier termination hereof, each party shall maintain in confidence all information of the other party that is disclosed by the other party and identified as, or acknowledged to be, confidential at the time of disclosure (the “Confidential Information”), and shall not use, disclose or grant the use of the Confidential Information except on a need-to-know basis to those directors, officers, affiliates, employees, permitted licensees, permitted assignees and agents, consultants, clinical investigators or contractors, to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary in connection with performing its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement. To the extent that disclosure is authorized by this Agreement, prior to disclosure, each party hereto shall obtain agreement of any such Person to hold in confidence and not make use of the Confidential Information for any purpose other than those permitted by this Agreement. Each party shall notify the other promptly upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information.

8.2 Permitted Disclosures. The confidentiality obligations contained in Section 8.1 above shall not apply to the extent that (a) any receiving party (the “Recipient”) is required (i) to disclose information by law, regulation or order of a governmental agency or a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) to disclose information to any governmental agency for purposes of obtaining approval to test or market a product, provided in either case that the Recipient shall provide written notice thereof to the other party and sufficient opportunity to object to any such disclosure or to request confidential treatment thereof; or (b) the Recipient can demonstrate that (i) the disclosed information was public knowledge at the time of such disclosure to the Recipient, or thereafter became public knowledge, other than as a result of actions of the Recipient in violation hereof; (ii) the disclosed information was rightfully known by the Recipient (as shown by its written records) prior to the date of disclosure to the Recipient by the other party hereunder; (iii) the disclosed information was disclosed to the Recipient on an

unrestricted basis from a source unrelated to any party to this Agreement and not under a duty of confidentiality to the other party; or (iv) the disclosed information was independently developed by the Recipient without use of the Confidential Information disclosed by the other party.

8.3 Terms of this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2 above, Licensor and Company shall not disclose any terms or conditions of this Agreement to any Third Party without the prior consent of the other party.

9. PATENTS

9.1 Patent Prosecution and Maintenance. Company shall have the right to control, at its sole cost, the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of all patents and patent applications within the Licensed Patent Rights in the Territory and shall be solely responsible for all costs incurred in the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of such patents and patent applications from the Effective Date through the termination of this Agreement. All such applications within the Licensed Patent Rights shall be filed in the name of Licensor as assignee. Company shall give Licensor an opportunity to review and comment on the text of each patent application subject to this Section 9.1 before filing, and shall supply Licensor with a copy of such patent application as filed, together with notice of its filing date and serial number.

The party controlling any such enforcement action shall not settle the action or otherwise consent to an adverse judgment in such action that diminishes the rights or interests of the non-controlling party without the prior written consent of the other party. All monies recovered upon the final judgment or settlement of any such suit to enforce the Licensed Patent Rights in the Territory shall be shared in relation to the damages (including attorneys’ fees and expenses for the enforcement action) incurred by each party as a result of such infringement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any part of the recovery includes a reasonable royalty, such royalty amounts shall be deemed Sublicensing Royalties and paid in accordance with Section 4.6. and to the extent that any part of the recovery includes punitive damages, such amounts shall be distributed [*]% to the controlling party and [*]% to the other party.

In addition, Licensor may terminate this Agreement upon not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice if Company fails to meet a Development Milestone, subject to the right to extend such Development Milestone as set forth in Section 7.4.

10.4 Effect of Expiration or Termination. Expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the parties of any obligation accruing prior to such expiration or termination, and the provisions of Sections 1, 2, 3.4, 5.2, 6, 7.7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. Upon any termination of this Agreement, Licensor shall grant a direct license to any sublicense of Company hereunder having the same scope as such sublicense and on terms and conditions no less favorable to such Sublicensee than the terms and conditions of this Agreement, provided that such Sublicensee is not in default of any applicable obligations under this Agreement and agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of such direct license. Upon any termination (but not expiration) of this Agreement, Company shall assign to Licensor all of Company’s rights in and to the Registrations, except to the extent said Registrations continue to be needed or used by a Sublicensee.

11. INDEMNIFICATION

11.1 Indemnification. Company shall defend, indemnify and hold Licensor harmless from all losses, liabilities, damages and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred as a result of any claim, demand, action or proceeding arising out of any breach of this Agreement by Company, any damages or personal injury resulting from the use or application of

the Product used, distributed or sold by Company, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Company in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except in each case to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Licensor or the breach of this Agreement by Licensor.

11.2 Procedure. Licensor promptly shall notify Company of any liability or action in respect of which Licensor intends to claim such indemnification, and Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by Company. The indemnity agreement in this Section 11 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of Company, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably. The failure to deliver notice to Company within a reasonable time after the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve Company of any liability to Licensor under this Section 11, but the omission so to deliver notice to Company will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to Licensor otherwise than under this Section 11. Licensor under this Section 11, its employees and agents, shall cooperate fully with Company and its legal representatives in the investigation and defense of any action, claim or liability covered by this indemnification.

11.3.2 Product liability insurance in such amounts as are customary and reasonable in the Company’s industry.

11.3.3 Maintenance of such insurance coverage shall not relieve Company of any responsibility under this Agreement for damage in excess of the insurance limits.

11.4 Certificates of Insurance. Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Licensor a certificate of such insurance promptly upon request by Licensor. Each such certificate shall name Licensor an additional named insured.

11.5 Notice of Cancellation or Expiration. Any such insurance policy shall provide that the insurer will give Licensor at least sixty (60) days prior written notice of any impending cancellation, nonrenewal, expiration, or reduction in coverage of the insurance.

12. FORCE MAJEURE

Neither party shall be held liable or responsible to the other party nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any

term of this Agreement to the extent, and for so long as, such failure or delay is caused by or results from causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected party including but not limited to fire, floods, embargoes, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), acts of terrorism, insurrections, riots, civil commotions, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, acts of God or acts, omissions or delays in acting by any governmental authority or the other party.

13.4 Assignment.

Any permitted assignee shall assume all obligations of its assignor under this Agreement. For the purpose of this Agreement, a “Qualified Affiliate” shall mean an Affiliate with a tangible net worth of not less than five million dollars ($5,000,000) at the time of the assignment.

13.5 Waivers and Amendments. No change, modification, extension, termination or waiver of this Agreement, or any of the provisions herein contained, shall be valid unless made in writing and signed by duly authorized representatives of the parties hereto.

13.7 Severability. Any of the provisions of this Agreement which are determined to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability in such jurisdiction, without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining provisions hereof and without affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

13.8 Waiver. The waiver by either party hereto of any right hereunder or the failure to perform or of a breach by the other party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by said other party whether of a similar nature or otherwise.
