country when sold separately, in each case, in the same dosage and dosage form and in the same country as the Combination Product during the applicable reporting period. If the Other Active(s) in the Combination Product is not sold separately in such country during the applicable reporting period, Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of such Combination Product by the fraction A/C where A is the Average Net Selling Price of the Product in such country when sold separately, and C is the Average Net Selling Price of the Combination Product in such country. If neither the Product nor the Other Active(s) were sold separately in such country during the applicable reporting period, then the respective Average Net Selling Prices during the most recent reporting period in which sales of both occurred in the same country as the Combination Product shall be used. In the event that the Average Net Selling Price of the Product is not available in a given country for any reporting period, then the Average Net Selling Prices of the respective products described above (in the same dosage and dosage form as the Combination Product) in a proxy country to be agreed upon by both Parties will be used (such agreement not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and if the Parties cannot agree upon such proxy country, or no such comparable sales figures are available in an appropriate proxy country, Net Sales for the applicable Combination Product shall be allocated based on the relative value contributed by the Compound and the Other Active(s) (such relative value to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties in writing).

1.107 “Other Active” shall mean any active pharmaceutical ingredient that is not a Compound or a product containing any such active pharmaceutical ingredient (and not containing a Compound). For clarity, drug delivery vehicles, [***] and excipients are hereby deemed not to be “Other Actives.”

3.3 Scope of Authority; Exclusions. Notwithstanding the establishment and existence of the JSC or any Subcommittee, each Party shall retain the rights, powers and discretion granted to it hereunder, and neither the JSC nor any Subcommittee shall be delegated or vested with rights, powers or discretion unless such delegation or vesting is expressly provided herein. In addition to any other exclusions from or limitations on its authority set forth in this Article 3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, neither the JSC (including Janssen in the exercise of its final decision-making authority under Section 3.1(f)) nor any Subcommittee shall have any right or authority:

(a) to interpret, modify, amend, or waive compliance with any provision of, or any right or remedy under, this Agreement;

(b) to determine whether or not a Party has complied with any of its obligations under this Agreement;

(d) to make any decision or approve any matter that is expressly stated to require the mutual written agreement of the Parties or the written consent of one or both Parties.

Janssen shall be responsible for the agreed upon Research Program Costs (subject to the [***] variance described below) incurred by Cidara during the Research Program Term (or deemed to have been incurred by Cidara during the Research Program Term as provided in Section 4.5) as documented in the Research Budget. Within 30 days after the end of each Cidara Calendar Quarter during the Research Program Term, Cidara shall provide a written report to Janssen setting forth in reasonable detail the FTE Costs and Out-of-Pocket Expenses actually incurred by Cidara during such Cidara Calendar Quarter, including the type and extent of Research Plan Activities to which such Research Program Costs are attributable, invoices from Third Party vendors or contractors for Out-of-Pocket Expenses, the number of FTEs devoted to such Research Plan Activities, and a written invoice for such costs; provided, that if the total Research Program Costs for such Cidara Calendar Quarter exceeds the Research Budget for such Cidara Calendar Quarter, then Cidara will provide written notice to Janssen as far in advance as reasonably possible of such cost overrun along with a reasonably detailed explanation of such cost overrun. Cidara agrees promptly to provide Janssen with reasonable additional information requested by Janssen related to the Research Program Costs during such Cidara Calendar Quarter to confirm that spending is in conformance with the approved Research Budget. Janssen shall pay each such invoice within [***] of receipt. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in any Cidara Calendar Year, Cidara incurs more than [***] of aggregate Research Program Costs budgeted for the Research Plan Activities performed in such Cidara Calendar Year, Janssen shall not be obligated to reimburse such excess Research Program Costs (over [***] of budgeted Research Program Costs) except to the extent the JSC approves such excess Research Program Costs (either before or after they are incurred). Cidara shall provide to Janssen the estimated Research Program Costs for each applicable Cidara Calendar Quarter within 15 days prior to the end of such Cidara Calendar Quarter to enable Janssen to appropriately accrue the Research Program Costs. Such estimate shall include the Research Program Costs incurred in such Cidara Calendar Quarter to date and a good faith, non-binding estimate of the Research Program Costs for the remainder of such Cidara Calendar Quarter. Cidara shall provide to Janssen an annual Research Budget update for the current Cidara Calendar Year on or before June 1st of each Cidara Calendar Year and an annual Research Budget on or before October 1st of each Cidara Calendar Year detailing the Research Budget and Research Plan for the upcoming Cidara Calendar Year, in each case, during the

Research Program Term. Janssen acknowledges that the annual Research Budget provided by Cidara to Janssen on or before October 1st of each Cidara Calendar Year detailing the Research Budget and Research Plan for the upcoming Cidara Calendar Year will represent Cidara’s good faith estimate, as of such date, of Research Program Costs for the upcoming Cidara Calendar Year. After Cidara provides each such annual Research Budget for the upcoming year to Janssen, Cidara shall promptly inform the JSC upon becoming aware of new information that changes Cidara’s good faith estimate of any item of Research Program Costs in such Research Budget, and the Parties (through the JSC) agree to consider in good faith approving an amendment to such Research Budget to appropriately reflect such new information.

6.3 Manufacturing Cost of Clinical Supply. If, at Janssen’s written request, Cidara supplies, or causes to be supplied, to Janssen or its Affiliate any quantity of Compound or Product for use in non-clinical and clinical research and drug Development activities (including Clinical Trials) to be conducted by or on behalf of Janssen outside of Research Plan Activities as and to the extent permitted by this Agreement, and the Manufacturing Cost of Clinical Supply of such quantity of Compound or Product is not otherwise reimbursed or reimbursable to Cidara as Research Program Costs pursuant to Section 6.2, then Janssen shall be responsible for the Manufacturing Cost of Clinical Supply of such quantity of Compound or Product.

On a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis, upon expiration of the Royalty Term for a Product in a country, the License with respect to such Product in such country shall become royalty-free, fully-paid, irrevocable and perpetual.

6.9 Reduction for No Valid Claim, No Regulatory Exclusivity or Biosimilar Competition.

(a) Regulatory Exclusivity But No Valid Claim. On a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis, during any portion of the Royalty Term for a Product in a country when no Valid Claim of a Cidara Patent or Joint Patent in such country Covers the [***]

[***] of the Compound of such Product in such country [***] and no Valid Claim of a Janssen Patent in such country Covers the [***] of the Compound of such Product in such country, but there is Regulatory Exclusivity for such Product in such country, the royalties due Cidara under Section 6.7 with respect to such Product in such country shall not be subject to any reduction on account thereof, unless Applicable Law in such country requires a royalty reduction under such circumstances, in which even the royalties due Cidara under Section 6.7 with respect to such Product in such country shall be reduced to [***] of the amount otherwise payable, subject to the application of the royalty floor under Section 6.11.

(b) No Valid Claim or Regulatory Exclusivity. On a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis, during any portion of the Royalty Term for a Product in a country when no Valid Claim of a Cidara Patent or Joint Patent in such country Covers [***] the Compound of such Product in such country [***] and no Valid Claim of a Janssen Patent in such country Covers [***] of the Compound of such Product in such country, and there is no Regulatory Exclusivity for such Product in such country, the royalties due Cidara under Section 6.7 with respect to such Product in such country shall be reduced to [***] of the amount otherwise payable under Section 6.7, subject to the application of the royalty floor under Section 6.11.

6.10 Third Party Licenses. Subject to Section 6.12, in the event that Janssen or its Affiliate or Sublicensee (as applicable) obtains one or more licenses under Patent Rights of Third Parties (excluding Sublicensees) that Cover, or are reasonably necessary or useful to make, use or sell, the Compound contained in a Product sold in a country (“Third Party Licenses”), then Janssen may credit against the royalties payable by Janssen to Cidara with respect to Net Sales of such Product in such country for a Janssen Calendar Quarter (i) [***] of the royalties actually paid by Janssen or such Affiliate or Sublicensee (as applicable) under such Third Party Licenses with respect to sales of such Product in such country for such Janssen Calendar Quarter and (ii) [***] of the royalties actually paid by Janssen or such Affiliate or Sublicensee (as applicable) under such Third Party Licenses with respect to sales of such Product in such country for such Janssen Calendar Quarter, in each case ((i) and (ii)), to the extent specifically attributable to such Patent Rights of such Third Parties that Cover, or are reasonably necessary or useful to make, use or sell, the Compound contained in such Product in such country and not to any other intellectual property rights licensed under such Third Party Licenses; provided, however, that in no event will the royalties payable by Janssen to Cidara hereunder with respect to Net Sales of such Product in such country for such Janssen Calendar Quarter be reduced by

more than [***] as a result of any and all such credits in the aggregate, but any portion of such royalties paid under Third Party Licenses with respect to sales of such Product in such country that Janssen would have been entitled to credit against royalties payable to Cidara in the absence of the foregoing limitation on aggregate credits in any Janssen Calendar Quarter shall be carried over and applied against royalties payable to Cidara in respect of such Product in such country in subsequent Janssen Calendar Quarters, subject in each such Janssen Calendar Quarter to the foregoing limitation, until the full deduction is taken; and provided, further, that Janssen will not be entitled to credit any portion of royalties that are paid or payable by Janssen or its Affiliate or Sublicensee to any Third Party with respect to sales of a Combination Product in any country by reason of the inclusion in such Combination Product of any Other Active.

6.11 Royalty Floor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Royalty Term, in no event shall the total deductions and reductions under Sections 6.9 and 6.10 reduce the royalties payable to Cidara under Section 6.7 with respect to a given Product in a given country in any Janssen Calendar Quarter by more than [***]; provided, however, that to the extent Janssen cannot deduct any amounts because of this Section 6.11, Janssen may deduct such amounts from royalties payable in future Janssen Calendar Quarters, subject in each such Janssen Calendar Quarter to this Section 6.11, until the amount of such deduction has been fully applied.

7. Payment; Reports; Audits

7.1 Payment; Reports. Commencing with the First Commercial Sale of a Product by Janssen or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, royalties shall be due and payable [***] after the end of each Janssen Calendar Quarter in which royalties are applicable. Each payment shall be accompanied with a report setting forth, on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis, the Net Sales of Products during such Janssen Calendar Quarter, the applicable royalty rate, the calculation and amount of the royalties due on such Net Sales (including the details of any Combination Product adjustment to such Net Sales and any reductions or offsets applied pursuant to Section 6.9 or Section 6.10) and the exchange rates used in calculating such royalties. All reports delivered by Janssen under this Section 7.1 shall be Confidential Information of Janssen.

7.2 Exchange Rate. All payment amounts specified in this Agreement are expressed in U.S. Dollars, and all payments by Janssen to Cidara under this Agreement shall be paid in U.S. Dollars. During the Royalty Term, Janssen shall provide the Currency Hedge Rate(s) to be used for the local currency of each country of the Territory for the upcoming Janssen Calendar Year not later than 10 Business Days after the Currency Hedge Rate(s) are available from

Janssen or its Affiliates, which is customarily at the beginning of December. Such Currency Hedge Rate(s) will remain constant throughout the upcoming Janssen Calendar Year. Janssen shall use the Currency Hedge Rate(s) to convert Net Sales reported in a currency other than U.S. Dollars to U.S. Dollars for the purpose of calculating royalties.

7.3 Income Tax Withholding. Each Party shall make all payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding for Taxes except to the extent that any such deduction or withholding is required by law in effect at the time of payment; provided, however, that the paying Party shall use reasonable, good faith efforts to give the recipient Party advance notice of its intention to make such deduction or withholding and the Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to take all such actions as shall enable them to take advantage of any applicable double taxation agreement or treaty. Prior to making any payment subject to deduction or withholding, the paying Party shall request from the recipient Party any documents reasonably required to reduce or eliminate any deduction or withholding from the payment due to the recipient Party. Any Tax required to be withheld on amounts payable under this Agreement will be timely paid by the paying Party on behalf of the recipient Party to the appropriate Governmental Authority, and the paying Party will promptly furnish the recipient Party with proof of payment of such Tax as well as any official receipts issued by the applicable Governmental Authority or other evidence as is reasonably requested to establish that such Taxes have been paid. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.3, in the event there is no double taxation agreement or treaty, or if the applicable double taxation agreement or treaty reduces but does not eliminate such deduction or withholding for Taxes, any such Tax required to be withheld will be an expense of and borne by the recipient Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that if Janssen (or its Affiliates or successors) is required to make a payment to Cidara subject to deduction or withholding of taxes, as described in this Section 7.3, and if the obligation to deduct or withhold taxes arises, or if the amount of such taxes required to be deducted or withheld is increased solely as a result any action taken by Janssen or its Affiliates or a successor or assignee including the assignment or transfer of all or a portion of this Agreement by Janssen pursuant to Section 15.6 or otherwise, or there is a change, whether by corporate continuance, merger or other means, in the tax residency of Janssen, or payments arise or are deemed to arise through a branch of Janssen (each a “Withholding Tax Action”), then notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the payment by Janssen (in respect of which such obligation to deduct or withhold taxes is required) shall be increased by the amount necessary to ensure that Cidara receives an amount equal to the same amount that it would have received had no Withholding Tax Action occurred. The Parties shall cooperate with respect to all documentation required by any taxing authority or reasonably requested to secure a reduction in the rate of applicable withholding taxes, and the Parties shall provide reasonable mutual assistance with respect to any claim of refund or exemption from Taxes under any relevant agreement or treaty.

7.4 Indirect Taxes. Amounts payable under this Agreement do not include any sales, use, excise, value added or other applicable taxes, tariffs or duties. If any taxing authority imposes a VAT, GST, sales, use, service, consumption, business or similar tax (any such tax, an “Indirect Tax”) with respect to the work undertaken under this Agreement, then Janssen agrees to pay that amount if specified in a valid invoice or supply exemption documentation. For avoidance of doubt, Cidara will not be entitled to pass on to Janssen, and Janssen will not be obligated to pay or bear, any tax that is based on Cidara’s real, personal or intangible property

(whether owned or leased), corporate structure, franchise, continuing business operations, income, gross receipts, capital stock, net worth or imposed with respect to Cidara’s engagement of employees or independent contractors or that Cidara incurs upon subcontracting any work hereunder, in whole or in part, to any Affiliate or Third Party. Cidara is solely responsible, to the extent required by Applicable Law, for identifying, billing, and collecting any Indirect Tax payable by Janssen with respect to payments under this Agreement in all relevant federal, state, county, municipal and other taxing jurisdictions and for filing all required tax returns in a timely manner. To the extent that Cidara does not provide Janssen a valid invoice (i.e., an invoice compliant with this Agreement and the rules and regulations of the jurisdictions of both Cidara and Janssen, including separate identification of the tax where legally required), Cidara shall be responsible for any penalty resulting directly from such noncompliance. The Parties will cooperate in good faith to minimize taxes to the extent legally permissible.

7.5 Records; Audits.

(a) Research Program Costs. During the Research Program Term and for a period of three calendar years thereafter, Cidara and its Affiliates shall keep complete and accurate records pertaining to Research Program Costs incurred by them in sufficient detail to permit Janssen to confirm the calculation of Research Program Costs and the accuracy of Cidara’s invoices delivered to Janssen pursuant to Section 6.2. Janssen shall have the right, once annually and during normal business hours and on no less than [***] prior written notice, to cause an independent, certified public accountant that is an internationally recognized expert in the field of audit with offices in the Major Markets and reasonably acceptable to Cidara to audit such records to confirm the calculation of such Research Program Costs and the accuracy of Cidara’s invoices therefor for a period covering not more than the preceding three calendar years. The records for a given calendar year shall be subject to audit no more than one time.

(b) Net Sales and Royalties. During the Term and for a period of three Janssen Calendar Years thereafter, Janssen shall keep, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to keep, complete and accurate records pertaining to the sale or other disposition of Products in sufficient detail to permit Cidara to confirm the accuracy of all royalty payments and Sales Milestone Payments due hereunder and Janssen’s reports with respect thereto, for at least three full Janssen Calendar Years following the end of the Janssen Calendar Year to which they pertain. Cidara shall have the right, once annually and during normal business hours and on no less than 30 days’ prior written notice, to cause an independent, certified public accountant that is an internationally recognized expert in the field of audit with offices in the Major Markets and reasonably acceptable to Janssen to audit such records to confirm Net Sales, royalties and the timing of achievement of Sales Milestone Events, for a period covering not more than the preceding three full Janssen Calendar Years. The records for a given Janssen Calendar Year shall be subject to audit no more than one time.

(c) Audit Procedures. The independent public accounting firm conducting an audit of a Party pursuant to Section 7.5(a) or Section 7.5(b) shall execute a reasonable confidentiality agreement with the audited Party prior to commencing any such inspection. Following completion of an inspection pursuant to Section 7.5(a) or Section 7.5(b), the independent public accounting firm shall, prior to distribution to the auditing Party, share its report with the audited Party. If the audited Party provides the independent public accounting

firm with justifying remarks for inclusion in the report, the independent public accounting firm shall incorporate such remarks into its report prior to sharing the conclusions of such independent public accounting firm with the auditing Party. The final audit report shall be shared with both Parties at the same time and shall specify, as applicable: (i) whether any Research Program Costs reported by Cidara during the audited period were correct and, if incorrect, the difference between the reported amounts and the amounts actually incurred; or (ii) whether (A) any Net Sales reported or royalties paid by Janssen during the audited period were correct and, if incorrect, the amount of any underpayment or overpayment, and (B) any Sales Milestone Event achieved during the audited period was timely reported and, if not timely reported, when such Sales Milestone Event should have been reported. The audit report shall contain only such information as is reasonably necessary to provide the auditing Party with information regarding any actual or potential discrepancies. The auditing Party shall bear the costs and expenses of any inspection conducted under this Section 7.5 unless such inspection reveals, as applicable: (1) an over-reporting of Research Program Costs by Cidara in the audited period of more than [***] percent of the actual Research Program Costs incurred by Cidara during such audited period, or (2) an underpayment of royalties payable by Janssen pursuant to Section 6.7 in the audited period of more than [***] percent of the amount payable for the audited period, or late reporting of any Sales Milestone Payment payable by Janssen pursuant to Section 6.6 during the audited period, in which case ((1) or (2)) the audited Party shall bear the costs and expenses of such inspection. If the audited Party disagrees with the findings of the audit report, the Parties will meet to attempt to mutually agree upon a resolution to the dispute. If such resolution cannot be reached, such disagreement shall be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article 13.

(d) Reconciliation.

(i) If an inspection of Cidara’s records pursuant to Section 7.5(a) reveals an overpayment by Janssen of Research Program Costs, then Janssen shall invoice Cidara for the excess of the amount paid over the amount actually due, and Janssen shall offset the invoiced amount against future payments due by Janssen to Cidara. If an inspection of Cidara’s records pursuant to Section 7.5(a) reveals an underpayment by Janssen of Research Program Costs, then Cidara shall invoice Janssen for the excess of the amount actually due over the amount paid, and Janssen shall pay such invoice within [***] after receipt thereof.

(ii) If an inspection of Janssen’s records pursuant to Section 7.5(b) reveals an underpayment by Janssen of royalties, then Cidara shall invoice Janssen for the amount of such underpayment, and Janssen shall pay such invoice within [***] after receipt thereof. If an inspection of Janssen’s records pursuant to Section 7.5(b) reveals an overpayment by Janssen of royalties, then Janssen shall invoice Cidara for the amount of the overpayment, and Janssen shall offset the invoiced amount against future payments due by Janssen to Cidara.

7.6 Late Payments. In the event that any payment due under this Agreement (other than any portion thereof that is subject to a good faith dispute between the Parties during the pendency of dispute resolutions pursuant to Article 13) is not made when due, simple interest shall accrue on the late payment at a rate per annum that is [***] basis points (i.e., [***] percentage points) above the overnight London Inter-Bank Offering Rate (LIBOR) or a comparable reference interbank rate per currency (or such other rate and source as the Parties

mutually agree in writing) for the period from the due date for payment until the date of actual payment or the maximum rate allowable by Applicable Law, whichever is lower. The payment of such interest shall not limit a Party from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment.

7.7 Paying Agent. Janssen Research & Development, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company having its principal place of business at 920 U.S. Route 202 (P.O. Box 300), Raritan, NJ 08869, acting as paying agent for Janssen, may make certain payments due under this Agreement.

8. Intellectual Property

8.1 Ownership.

(a) Inventorship. Inventorship of Inventions in the Territory shall be determined in accordance with U.S. patent laws; provided, however, that constructive reduction to practice through the mere filing or prosecution of a patent application shall not constitute inventorship or give rise to any ownership rights.

(b) Ownership of Inventions. Cidara shall solely own all Cidara Inventions. Janssen shall solely own all Janssen Inventions. The Parties shall jointly own all Joint Inventions. Except to the extent Cidara has granted Janssen the License under Cidara’s joint ownership interest in Joint Technology, and subject to Janssen’s payment, reporting and accounting obligations with respect to Products under this Agreement, each Party shall have the right to practice and use, and to grant licenses under, such Party’s own joint ownership interest in Joint Technology without the other Party’s consent, and shall have no duty to account to the other Party for such practice, use or license, and each Party hereby waives any right it may have under the laws of any country to require such consent or accounting.

8.2 Patent Prosecution and Maintenance. For purposes of this Section 8.2, the terms “prosecution” and “maintenance” (including variations such as “prosecute” and “maintain”) shall mean, with respect to a Patent Right, the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance (including payment of any patent annuity fees) of such Patent Right, as well as re-examinations, reissues, appeals, post grant reviews (PGR), inter partes reviews (IPR) and requests for patent term adjustments and patent term extensions with respect to such Patent Rights, together with the initiation or defense of interferences, oppositions and other similar proceedings with respect to the particular Patent Right, and any appeals therefrom. For clarification, “prosecution” and “maintenance” (including variations such as “prosecute” and “maintain”) shall not include any other enforcement actions taken with respect to a Patent Right.

(a) Cidara Patents.

(i) Cidara Compound-Specific Patents.

counsel selected by Cidara and reasonably acceptable to Janssen [***], and Janssen shall reimburse Cidara for the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in such prosecution and maintenance within [***] of receipt of invoice from Cidara. For clarity, Cidara’s obligation to prosecute and maintain the Cidara Compound-Specific Patents under the preceding sentence shall not be construed to prohibit ordinary course prosecution actions, including amending, or agreeing to amend, the scope of a claim of a pending patent application within the Cidara Compound-Specific Patents, or filing a terminal disclaimer with respect to or abandoning a claim of a pending patent application within the Cidara Compound-Specific Patents in favor of a related claim contained in another patent application filed by Cidara that would constitute a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent. Cidara shall consult with Janssen as to the prosecution and maintenance of such Cidara Compound-Specific Patents reasonably prior to any deadline or action with any patent office, shall furnish to Janssen copies of all relevant drafts and documents reasonably in advance of such consultation, and shall consider in good faith Janssen’s reasonable comments thereon. Cidara shall keep Janssen reasonably informed of progress with regard to the prosecution and maintenance of such Cidara Compound-Specific Patents and shall provide to Janssen copies of all material patent office submissions within a reasonable amount of time following submission thereof by Cidara. In the event that Cidara desires to abandon or cease the prosecution or maintenance of any such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent in any country, Cidara shall provide reasonable prior written notice to Janssen of such intention to abandon (which notice shall, to the extent possible, be given no later than 30 days prior to the next deadline for any action that must be taken with respect to any such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent in the relevant patent office). In such case, at Janssen’s sole discretion, upon written notice to Cidara, Janssen may elect to assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance of such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent, at Janssen’s sole cost and expense and by counsel of its own choice. For clarification, if a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent is licensed to Cidara by a Third Party, Cidara’s rights and obligation to prosecute and maintain such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent shall be subject to the applicable provisions of the applicable license agreement between Cidara and such Third Party.

(2) After Delivery of Election to Proceed Notice. From and after Janssen’s delivery to Cidara of an Election to Proceed Notice in accordance with Section 4.8(b), Janssen shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to prosecute and maintain Cidara Compound-Specific Patents, at Janssen’s sole cost and expense and by outside counsel selected by Janssen and reasonably acceptable to Cidara. Janssen shall consult with Cidara as to the prosecution and maintenance of such Cidara Compound-Specific Patents reasonably prior to any deadline or action with any patent office, shall furnish to Cidara copies of all relevant drafts and documents reasonably in advance of such consultation, and shall consider in good faith Cidara’s reasonable comments thereon. Janssen shall keep Cidara reasonably informed of progress with regard to the prosecution and maintenance of such Cidara Compound-Specific Patents and shall provide to Cidara copies of all material patent office submissions within a reasonable amount of time following submission thereof by Janssen. In the event that Janssen desires to abandon or cease the prosecution or maintenance of any such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent in any country, Janssen shall provide reasonable prior written notice to Cidara of such intention to abandon (which notice shall, to the extent possible, be given no later than 30 days prior to the next deadline for any action that must be taken with respect to any such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent in the relevant patent office). In such case, at Cidara’s sole

discretion, upon written notice to Janssen, Cidara may elect to assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance of such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent, at Cidara’s sole cost and expense and by counsel of its own choice, and such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent shall cease to constitute a “Cidara Patent” for purposes of this Agreement, including the License granted to Janssen hereunder. For clarification, if a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent is licensed to Cidara by a Third Party, Janssen’s rights to prosecute and maintain such Cidara Compound-Specific Patent shall be subject to the applicable provisions of the applicable license agreement between Cidara and such Third Party.

(ii) Other Cidara Patents. Cidara shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to prosecute and maintain Cidara Patents other than Cidara Compound-Specific Patents, at Cidara’s sole cost and expense and by counsel selected by Cidara.

(b) Janssen Patents. Janssen shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to prosecute and maintain Janssen Patents, including Janssen Compound-Specific Patents, at Janssen’s sole cost and expense and by counsel selected by Janssen. Janssen shall consult with Cidara as to the prosecution and maintenance of Janssen Compound-Specific Patents reasonably prior to any deadline or action with any patent office, shall furnish to Cidara copies of all relevant drafts and documents reasonably in advance of such consultation, and shall consider in good faith Cidara’s reasonable comments thereon. Janssen shall keep Cidara reasonably informed of progress with regard to the prosecution and maintenance of such Janssen Compound-Specific Patents and shall provide to Cidara copies of all material patent office submissions within a reasonable amount of time following submission thereof by Janssen.

(i) Joint Compound-Specific Patents.

(1) Before Delivery of Election to Proceed Notice. Prior to Janssen’s delivery to Cidara of an Election to Proceed Notice in accordance with Section 4.8(b), Cidara shall have the sole right, and the obligation (except as expressly set forth below in this Section 8.2(c)(i)(1)), to prosecute and maintain Joint Compound-Specific Patents, by outside counsel jointly selected by and mutually agreeable to the Parties (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and Janssen shall reimburse Cidara for the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in such prosecution and maintenance within [***] of receipt of invoice from Cidara. For clarity, Cidara’s obligation to prosecute and maintain the Joint Compound-Specific Patents under the preceding sentence shall not be construed to prohibit ordinary course prosecution actions, including amending, or agreeing to amend, the scope of a claim of a pending patent application within the Joint Compound-Specific Patents, or filing a terminal disclaimer with respect to or abandoning a claim of a pending patent application within the Joint Compound-Specific Patents in favor of a related claim contained in another patent application filed by Cidara that would constitute a Joint Compound-Specific Patent. Cidara shall consult with Janssen as to the prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Compound-Specific Patents reasonably prior to any deadline or action with any patent office, shall furnish to Janssen copies of all relevant drafts and documents reasonably in advance of such consultation, and shall consider in good faith Janssen’s reasonable comments thereon. Cidara shall keep Janssen reasonably informed of progress with regard to the

prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Compound-Specific Patents and shall provide to Janssen copies of all material patent office submissions within a reasonable amount of time following submission thereof by Cidara. In the event that Cidara desires to abandon or cease the prosecution or maintenance of any such Joint Compound-Specific Patent in any country, Cidara shall provide reasonable prior written notice to Janssen of such intention to abandon (which notice shall, to the extent possible, be given no later than 30 days prior to the next deadline for any action that must be taken with respect to any such Joint Compound-Specific Patent in the relevant patent office). In such case, at Janssen’s sole discretion, upon written notice to Cidara, Janssen may elect to assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Compound-Specific Patent, at Janssen’s sole cost and expense and by counsel of its own choice.

(2) After Delivery of Election to Proceed Notice. From and after Janssen’s delivery to Cidara of an Election to Proceed Notice in accordance with Section 4.8(b), Janssen shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to prosecute and maintain Joint Compound-Specific Patents, at Janssen’s sole cost and expense and by outside counsel selected by Janssen and reasonably acceptable to Cidara. Janssen shall consult with Cidara as to the prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Compound-Specific Patents reasonably prior to any deadline or action with any patent office, shall furnish to Cidara copies of all relevant drafts and documents reasonably in advance of such consultation, and shall consider in good faith Cidara’s reasonable comments thereon. Janssen shall keep Cidara reasonably informed of progress with regard to the prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Compound-Specific Patents and shall provide to Cidara copies of all material patent office submissions within a reasonable amount of time following submission thereof by Janssen. In the event that Janssen desires to abandon or cease the prosecution or maintenance of any such Joint Compound-Specific Patent in any country, Janssen shall provide reasonable prior written notice to Cidara of such intention to abandon (which notice shall, to the extent possible, be given no later than 30 days prior to the next deadline for any action that must be taken with respect to any such Joint Compound-Specific Patent in the relevant patent office). In such case, at Cidara’s sole discretion, upon written notice to Janssen, Cidara may elect to assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Compound-Specific Patent, at Cidara’s sole cost and expense and by counsel of its own choice.

(ii) Other Joint Patents. The Parties shall decide on a case-by-case basis which of the Parties shall have primary responsibility for prosecuting and maintaining Joint Patents other than Joint Compound-Specific Patents and how the costs and expenses of such prosecution and maintenance shall be allocated between the Parties. The Party with primary responsibility for prosecution and maintenance of any such Joint Patent (the “Responsible Party”) shall use patent counsel reasonably acceptable to the other Party. The Responsible Party shall consult with the other Party as to the prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Patent reasonably prior to any deadline or action with any patent office, shall furnish to the other Party copies of all relevant drafts and documents reasonably in advance of such consultation, and shall consider in good faith the other Party’s reasonable comments thereon. The Responsible Party shall keep other Party reasonably informed of progress with regard to the prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Patent and shall provide to the other Party copies of all material patent office submissions within a reasonable amount of time following submission thereof by the Responsible Party. In the event that the Responsible Party desires to abandon or cease the prosecution or maintenance of such Joint Patent in any country, the Responsible Party shall

provide reasonable prior written notice to the other Party of such intention to abandon (which notice shall, to the extent possible, be given no later than 30 days prior to the next deadline for any action that must be taken with respect to any such Joint Patent in the relevant patent office). In such case, at the other Party’s sole discretion, upon written notice to the Responsible Party, the other Party may elect to assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Patent, at the other Party’s sole cost and expense and by counsel of its own choice.

(d) Cooperation of the Parties. Each Party agrees to cooperate fully in the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of Patent Rights pursuant to this Section 8.2. Such cooperation includes, but is not limited to: (A) executing all papers and instruments, or requiring its employees or contractors, to execute such papers and instruments, so as to effectuate the ownership of Inventions set forth in Section 8.1(b), and Patent Rights Covering such Inventions, and to enable the applicable Party to apply for and to prosecute patent applications in any country as permitted by this Section 8.2, and (B) promptly informing the other Party of any matters coming to such Party’s attention that may affect the prosecution and maintenance of any such patent applications.

(i) During the Term and subject to this Section 8.2, each Party will, in the preparation, filing, prosecution or maintenance of any Patent Right (including any patent application) within the Cidara Patents (including the patent applications set forth on Exhibit D), Janssen Patents or Joint Patents, use reasonable efforts to segregate (1) claims [***] from (2) claims [***], such that the claims described in clause (2) are not included in Cidara Compound-Specific Patents, Janssen Compound-Specific Patents or Joint Compound-Specific Patents (as applicable), provided that if such Party determines, in good faith and upon advice of outside patent counsel, that it is not practicable or not consistent with applicable patent law or patent office requirements to segregate a given claim described in clause (1) above and a given claim described in clause (2) above in separate Patent Rights as provided herein, such Party shall provide notice to the other Party thereof prior to filing such Patent Right and the Parties will meet and discuss in good faith how to prosecute such claims and attempt to mutually agree on a prosecution strategy prior to the filing of such Patent Right. In the event that the Parties are unable to mutually agree on a prosecution strategy for such claims within 30 days after such notice, either Party may, by written notice to the other Party, refer the matter to the Senior Executives, who shall promptly meet and attempt in good faith to resolve such issue within 30 days after such referral. If the Senior Executives cannot resolve such matter within 30 days after the date such matter is first referred to them, then, upon the written request of either Party to the other, the Parties shall jointly select a U.S.-based attorney currently registered to practice before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office with at least 15 years of relevant patent prosecution experience in private practice (unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing) and who is not a current or former employee of, or outside patent counsel to, either Party or any of their respective Affiliates (such jointly selected attorney, the “Independent Patent Attorney”). Each Party shall provide the Independent Patent Attorney with a draft reflecting its proposed patent filing strategy for such claim(s) and rationale therefor, and the Parties shall provide to the Independent Patent Attorney a copy of this Section 8.2(d)(i) and relevant definitions set forth in this Agreement. The entire scope of the Independent Patent Attorney’s authority shall be to select the proposal of one of the Parties that most equitably

balances the interest of Cidara in securing Patent Rights Covering AVCs or AVC Components more broadly and the interest of Janssen in securing Patent Rights Covering Compounds and Products specifically, and takes into consideration the risks posed by each Party’s proposal, in each case, consistent with applicable patent law or patent office requirements. The Independent Patent Attorney shall issue such determination in writing to both Parties within 14 days of being provided all necessary materials to issue such determination (or such other timeframe mutually agreeable to the Parties), and such determination shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Parties shall initially share the fees and costs of the Independent Patent Attorney equally, but following issuance of the Independent Patent Attorney’s determination, the Party to which the Independent Patent Attorney’s determination was adverse shall reimburse the other Party for the share of such fees and expenses initially borne by the other Party (provided, for clarity, that in any event each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses in connection with such proceeding). No matter within the scope of this Section 8.2(d)(i) shall be subject to the dispute resolution mechanisms set forth in Article 13.

(ii) During the Term and subject to this Section 8.2, each Party will, in any Patent Right filing, use reasonable efforts to segregate (1) claims Covering (at the time of filing) Cidara Inventions or Janssen Inventions from (2) claims Covering (at the time of filing) Joint Inventions, such that the claims described in clause (1) are not included in any Joint Patent, provided that if such Party is not able to segregate claims as provided herein, such Party shall provide notice to the other Party of such prior to filing such Patent Right and the Parties will meet and discuss in good faith how to prosecute such claims and mutually agree on a prosecution strategy prior to filing on such claims. No matter within the scope of this Section 8.2(d)(ii) shall be subject to the dispute resolution mechanisms set forth in Article 13.

8.3 Patent Enforcement.

(a) Notice. Each Party shall notify the other Party in writing within [***] (except as expressly set forth below) of becoming aware of any actual infringement or threat of infringement of any Cidara Compound-Specific Patent, Janssen Compound-Specific Patent or Joint Compound-Specific Patent: (i) on account of a Third Party’s Manufacture, use or sale of a Third Party Competitive Product or a Biosimilar Product with respect to any Compound or Product; (ii) either, as applicable (1) a Party’s receipt of an application submitted to the FDA under subsection (k) of Section 351 of the Public Health Service Act (“PHSA”) or equivalent in any other jurisdiction pertaining to and naming a Product as a reference product (a “Biosimilar Application”) or otherwise becoming aware that such a Biosimilar Application has been filed (such as in an instance described in Section 351(l)(9)(C) of the PHSA); or (2) any certification filed in the U.S. under 21 U.S.C. § 355(b)(2) or 21 U.S.C. § 355(j)(2) or similar provisions in other jurisdictions in connection with an ANDA (an Abbreviated New Drug Application in the U.S. or a comparable application for Marketing Approval under Applicable Law in any country other than the U.S.) or other Marketing Approval Application for a Third Party Competitive Product (a “Patent Certification”); or (iii) if any Cidara Compound-Specific Patent, Janssen Compound-Specific Patent or Joint Compound-Specific Patent is challenged in any action or proceeding (other than any oppositions, cancellations, interferences, reissue proceedings or reexaminations, which are addressed above) as invalid or unenforceable (such infringements, Biosimilar Application filings, Patent Certifications and challenges described in clauses (i) through (iii), collectively, “Product

Infringement” with respect to such Compound or Product); provided, however, that: (1) within three Business Days of receipt or becoming aware of any Biosimilar Application, such Party shall notify the other Party so that the other Party may seek permission to view the application and related confidential information from the filer of the Biosimilar Application under Section 351(l)(1)(B)(iii) of the PHSA or equivalent in any other jurisdiction; and (2) within five Business Days of receipt of any Patent Certification, such Party shall notify the other Party and provide the other Party with a copy thereof. Promptly following such notification, the Parties shall confer. As used in this Section 8.3(a), a “Third Party Competitive Product” means any product of a Third Party that directly competes with a Product and is approved for at least one of the same Indications as such Product.

(b) Conduct of Patent Litigation Under the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act. Janssen shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to initiate an Infringement Action against the filer of the Biosimilar Application to enforce any Cidara Compound-Specific Patent, Janssen Compound-Specific Patent or Joint Compound-Specific Patent, including whether or not to utilize, in whole or in part, the procedures provided in Section 351 of the PHSA or equivalent in any other jurisdiction. If Janssen institutes any such Infringement Action to enforce any Cidara Compound-Specific Patent or Joint Compound-Specific Patent, then Cidara shall join as a party to such claim, suit or proceeding requiring it as a party at Janssen’s sole cost and expense. With respect to a Cidara Patent that is not a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent or a Joint Patent that is not a Joint Compound-Specific Patent and to the extent the action is under this Section, Cidara shall determine in its sole discretion whether any Infringement suit or other action shall be initiated shall have the sole right to initiate and undertake such action and other matters pertaining to such action.

(c) Enforcement of Cidara Compound-Specific Patents, Janssen Compound-Specific Patents and Joint Compound-Specific Patents.

(i) Janssen shall have the first right to institute infringement suits or take other action under the Cidara Compound-Specific Patents and Joint Compound-Specific Patents, and under the Janssen Compound-Specific Patents, in each case, to the extent the same is directed to a Product Infringement, including defense of a declaratory judgment action with respect to a potential Product Infringement (whether prior to or after the First Commercial Sale of such Product) (each, an “Infringement Action”), and in each case, Janssen shall have the right to institute such suit or other appropriate action in the name of Cidara or of Janssen, or in the names of both of them. For clarity, Janssen shall have the right to institute infringement suits or take other action under Janssen Patents that are not Janssen Compound-Specific Patents, provided that Janssen shall keep Cidara reasonably updated on the progress of any such suits or actions.

(ii) In the event that Janssen institutes or undertakes an Infringement Action in accordance with Section 8.3(c)(i), Cidara shall cooperate fully with Janssen in its efforts to protect such Patent Rights and shall agree to be a party in any suit, if required, in each case, with respect to such Infringement Action, in each case, at Janssen’s sole expense. Further, Cidara shall have a right, in Cidara’s sole discretion and at Cidara’s expense, to join or otherwise participate in such Infringement Action with legal counsel selected by Cidara. Janssen shall

notify and keep Cidara apprised in writing of such Infringement Action and shall consider and take into account Cidara’s reasonable interests and requests regarding such Infringement Action.

(iii) In the event that Janssen does not institute or undertake an Infringement Action in accordance with Section 8.3(c)(i) for a period of [***] after being requested by Cidara to do so, or (if sooner) at least [***] prior to the last date such Infringement Action may be brought, Cidara may institute or undertake and thereafter control such Infringement Action. In such event, Cidara shall have the right, but not the obligation, to institute or undertake such suit or other appropriate Infringement Action in the name of Cidara or of Janssen or in the names of both of them. Janssen shall cooperate fully with Cidara in its efforts to protect such Patent Rights and shall agree to be a party in any suit, if required, in each case, with respect to such Infringement Action, in each case, at Cidara’s sole expense.

(d) Enforcement of Cidara Patents (Other Than Cidara Compound-Specific Patents) and Joint Patents (Other Than Joint Compound-Specific Patents).

(i) Cidara shall have: (A) the sole right to institute infringement suits or take other actions directed to a Product Infringement of Cidara Patents that are not Cidara Compound-Specific Patents; and (B) the first right to institute infringement suits or take other actions directed to a Product Infringement of Joint Patents other than Joint Compound-Specific Patents; in each case, including defense of a declaratory judgment action with respect to a potential Product Infringement, and in each case, Cidara shall have the right to institute such suit or other appropriate action in the name of Cidara or of Janssen, or in the names of both of them. Janssen shall cooperate fully with Cidara in its efforts to protect such Patent Rights and shall agree to be a party in any suit, if required, at Cidara’s sole expense. Cidara shall notify and keep Janssen apprised in writing of such action and shall consider and take into account Janssen’s reasonable interests and requests regarding such action.

(ii) In the event that Cidara does not institute or undertake an action directed to a Product Infringement of Joint Patents other than Joint Compound-Specific Patents in accordance with Section 8.3(d)(i) for a period of [***] after being requested by Janssen to do so, or (if sooner) at least [***] prior to the last date such action may be brought, then upon Cidara’s written consent, which may be granted or withheld in Cidara’s sole discretion, Janssen may institute or undertake and thereafter control such action, in the name of Cidara or of Janssen or in the names of both of them. If Cidara consents to such action, Janssen shall cooperate fully with Cidara in its efforts to protect such Patent Rights and shall agree to be a party in any suit, if required, at Janssen’s sole expense. For clarity, Cidara shall have no obligation, and Janssen shall have no right, to institute or undertake an action directed to a Product Infringement of any Cidara Patent that is not a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent.

(e) Cooperation. In the event a Party brings an Infringement Action in accordance with this Section 8.3 (such Party, the “Enforcing Party”), the other Party shall cooperate fully, including, if required to bring such action, the furnishing of a power of attorney or being named as a party. The Enforcing Party shall not enter into any settlement or compromise of any action under Section 8.3 that: (i) would in any manner alter, diminish, or be in derogation of the other Party’s rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of such other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; or (ii) would impose any cost or

liability on the other Party, or admit the invalidity or unenforceability of any Patent Right Controlled by the other Party, without such other Party’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in such other Party’s sole discretion.

(f) Recoveries. Except as otherwise agreed by the Parties in connection with a cost-sharing arrangement, any recovery as a result of any action or proceeding pursuant to Section 8.3, whether by way of settlement or otherwise, shall first be used to reimburse the Enforcing Party for its documented, unreimbursed out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including court, attorneys’ and professional fees) incurred in connection with such action or proceeding and then, following payment in full of all such costs to the Enforcing Party, to reimburse the non-Enforcing Party for its documented, unreimbursed out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including court, attorneys’ and professional fees) incurred in connection with such action or proceeding. Any remainder of the recovery after reimbursement of the litigation costs and expenses of the Parties (“Remainder”) shall be retained by the Enforcing Party; provided, however, that:

(i) any Remainder of a recovery realized by Janssen as a result of any action brought and controlled by Janssen pursuant to Section 8.3(b) or 8.3(c) that is specifically attributable to Product Infringement of a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent, a Janssen Compound-Specific Patent or a Joint Compound-Specific Patent, shall be allocated as follows: (A) to the extent it represents compensatory damages for such Product Infringement, [***] to Janssen and [***] to Cidara; and (B) to the extent it represents [***] for such Product Infringement, [***] to Janssen and [***] to Cidara; and

(ii) any Remainder of a recovery realized by Cidara as a result of any action brought and controlled by Cidara pursuant to Section 8.3(d)(i) that is specifically attributable to Product Infringement of a Cidara Patent other than a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent or of a Joint Patent other than a Joint Compound-Specific Patent, shall be allocated as follows: (A) to the extent it represents compensatory damages for such Product Infringement, [***] to Cidara and [***] to Janssen; and (B) to the extent it represents [***] for such Product Infringement, [***] to Cidara and [***] to Janssen.

(g) Other Enforcement. Cidara shall have the sole right, in its sole discretion, to enforce any Cidara Patent that is not a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent against any infringement that is not a Product Infringement, and to retain all related recoveries. Janssen shall have the sole right, in its sole discretion, to enforce any Janssen Patent against any infringement that is not a Product Infringement and to retain all related recoveries. If there is any infringement of any Joint Patent that is not a Joint Compound-Specific Patent and that is not a Product Infringement, then the Parties shall mutually agree in good faith on a case-by-case basis whether to jointly bring and control any action or proceeding to enforce such Joint Patent, or whether one Party will bring and control any action or proceeding to enforce such Joint Patent, and, in each case, how the costs and expenses of such action or proceeding, and any recovery from such action or proceeding, will be allocated between the Parties.

8.4 Patent Term Extension. Janssen shall have the sole discretion, after consultation with Cidara, to determine which Cidara Compound-Specific Patents, Janssen Compound-Specific Patents or Joint Compound-Specific Patents, if any, are extended with respect to any Product pursuant to U.S. Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, the Supplementary Certificate of Protection of Member States of the EU and other similar measures in other jurisdictions worldwide. Upon Janssen’s request, the Parties will discuss whether any other Joint Patent that is not a Joint Compound-Specific Patent will be extended with respect to any Product, which extension may be made only with Cidara’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Cidara and Janssen shall each cooperate and use reasonable efforts to gain any such patent term extension permitted under this Section 8.4. All filings for such extensions shall be made by the Party responsible for the prosecution of such Patent Rights. For clarity, and notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, Janssen shall have no right to extend any Cidara Patent that is not a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent with respect to a Product, and Cidara shall have no obligation to allow, or consider allowing, any Cidara Patent that is not a Cidara Compound-Specific Patent to be extended with respect to any Product.

8.5 Infringement of Third Party Rights. Each Party shall promptly notify the other in writing of any allegation by a Third Party that Manufacture, use or sale of Product infringes or may infringe the intellectual property rights of such Third Party. Cidara shall have the sole right to control any defense of any such claim involving alleged infringement of Third Party rights by Cidara’s activities at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice, and Janssen shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice. Janssen shall have the sole right to control any defense of any such claim involving alleged infringement of Third Party rights by Janssen’s activities at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice, and Cidara shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice. Neither Party shall have the right to settle any patent infringement litigation under this Section 8.5 in a manner that diminishes the rights or interests of the other Party without the written consent of such other Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

8.6 Patent Marking. Janssen shall mark (or cause to be marked) Product marketed and sold hereunder with appropriate Cidara Patent numbers or indicia to the extent required by Applicable Laws.

8.7 Trademarks. Janssen shall have the sole and exclusive right to develop, clear, and select the Product Trademarks. As between the Parties, Janssen shall own all rights in and to the Product Trademarks and shall register and maintain, in its sole discretion and at its own cost and expense, the Product Trademarks in the countries and regions in the Territory that it determines to be appropriate. Janssen shall have the sole right, in its discretion and at its expense, to defend and enforce the Product Trademarks.

9. Confidentiality

9.1 Confidentiality. Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, each Party agrees that, during the Term and for seven years thereafter, a Party (the “Receiving Party”) receiving or otherwise in possession of

(itself or through its Affiliates) Confidential Information of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) or its Affiliates shall keep confidential and shall not publish or otherwise disclose and shall not use for any purpose, other than as expressly provided for in this Agreement, any such Confidential Information. The Receiving Party may use Confidential Information only to the extent expressly authorized by, or required to accomplish the purposes of, this Agreement, including exercising its rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Receiving Party shall use at least the same standard of care as it uses to protect proprietary or confidential information of its own, but no less than reasonable care, to ensure that its, and its Affiliates’, employees, agents, consultants, advisors, contractors and other representatives (“Representatives”) do not disclose or make any unauthorized use of the Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will promptly notify the Disclosing Party upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information. All Data generated during the Research Program Term (other than Data within the Manufacturing Improvement Know-How) will be considered (i) during the Research Program Term, the Confidential Information of both Parties, (ii) following Janssen’s timely delivery to Cidara of an Election to Proceed Notice in accordance with Section 4.8(b), the Confidential Information of Janssen, and (iii) following termination of this Agreement in its entirety by Cidara, the Confidential Information of Cidara. For clarity, (A) all AVC Improvement Know-How and Manufacturing Improvement Know-How will be deemed to be the Confidential Information of Janssen to the extent it was made, conceived, generated or reduced to practice solely by Janssen, (B) all AVC Improvement Know-How and Manufacturing Improvement Know-How will be deemed to be the Confidential Information of both Parties to the extent it was made, conceived, generated or reduced to practice jointly by the Parties, (C) all other Cidara Know-How (except, in the case of Data, to the extent otherwise provided in clause (A) or (B) or the previous sentence) will be deemed to be the Confidential Information of Cidara, and (D) all other Janssen Know-How (except, in the case of Data, to the extent otherwise provided in clause (A) or (B) or the previous sentence) will be deemed to be the Confidential Information of Janssen.

9.2 Exceptions. Confidential Information shall not include any information that the Receiving Party can prove by competent evidence: (a) is now, or hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act on the part of the Receiving Party in breach of this Agreement, generally known or available; (b) is known by the Receiving Party at the time of receiving such information, as evidenced by its records; (c) is hereafter furnished to the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis by a Third Party, as a matter of right (i.e., without breaching any obligation such Third Party may have to the Disclosing Party); or (d) is independently discovered or developed by the Receiving Party, independently of the activities undertaken by the Receiving Party pursuant to this Agreement and without the use of Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, as evidenced by the Receiving Party’s contemporaneously-maintained written records. For purposes of clause (a) of this Section 9.2, no combination of elements within the Confidential Information shall be deemed to be generally known or available merely because the individual elements of such combination are generally known or available, unless the entire combination itself, or the entire principle of use or operation of such combination (if any), is generally known or available. In addition, no element within the Confidential Information shall be deemed to be generally known or available merely because it is embraced by more general information or data that is generally known or available.

9.3 Authorized Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information as expressly permitted by this Agreement, or if and to the extent such disclosure is necessary in the following instances:

(a) filing or prosecuting Patent Rights as permitted by this Agreement;

(b) enforcing such Party’s rights under this Agreement and performing its obligations under this Agreement;

(d) complying with applicable court orders or Applicable Laws, or the listing rules of any exchange on which such Party’s securities are traded;

(e) in INDs, Marketing Approval Applications and other applications for Regulatory Approvals that the Receiving Party has the right to file, or holds, as expressly set forth in this Agreement;

(f) disclosure to the Receiving Party’s Affiliates and, in the case of Janssen, to Sublicensees and potential Sublicensees, and to the Receiving Party’s and its Affiliates’ Representatives who, in each case, need to know such information in order for the Receiving Party to exercise its rights or fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, provided, in each case, that any such Affiliate, actual or potential Sublicensee, or Representative agrees to be bound by terms of confidentiality and non-use at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Article 9; and

(g) disclosure to Third Parties in connection with due diligence or similar investigations by such Third Parties, and disclosure to potential Third Party investors or other financing sources in confidential financing documents, provided, in each case, that any such Third Party agrees to be bound by reasonable obligations of confidentiality and non-use.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Receiving Party is required to make a disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to Section 9.3(c) or 9.3(d), it will, except where impracticable or legally impermissible, (i) give reasonable advance notice to the Disclosing Party of such disclosure, (ii) use efforts to secure confidential treatment of such information at least as diligent as the Receiving Party would use to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable efforts, and (iii) cooperate with any efforts by the Disclosing Party, at the Disclosing Party’s request and expense, to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information. Disclosure by the Receiving Party of Confidential Information in accordance with any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.3 shall not, in and of itself, cause the information so disclosed to cease to be treated as Confidential Information under this Agreement, except to the extent that, by virtue of disclosure by the Receiving Party in full compliance with this Section 9.3, such information becomes generally known or available.

9.4 Confidentiality of this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 9, each Party agrees not to disclose to any Third Party the terms of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto, except that each Party may disclose

the terms of this Agreement that are otherwise made public as contemplated by Section 9.5 or to the extent such disclosure is permitted under Section 9.3.

9.5 Public Announcements.

(a) The Parties have agreed upon the content of a press release which shall be issued by Cidara (or jointly by the Parties, if mutually agreed) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I, the release of which the Parties will coordinate in order to accomplish the same promptly upon execution and delivery of this Agreement. Except to the extent already disclosed in a press release or other public communication issued in accordance with this Agreement, no public announcement concerning this Agreement, its subject matter or the transactions described herein shall be made, either directly or indirectly, by either Party or its Affiliates, except as may be required by Applicable Law (including disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)), judicial order, or stock exchange or quotation system rule, without first obtaining the approval of the other Party and agreement upon the nature, text and timing of such announcement, which approval and agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Party desiring to make any such voluntary public announcement shall provide the other Party with a written copy of the proposed announcement in reasonably sufficient time prior to public release to allow the other Party to comment upon such announcement, prior to public release. In the case of press releases or other public communications required to be made by law, judicial order or stock exchange or quotation system rule, the Party making such press release or public announcement shall provide to the other Party a copy of the proposed press release or public announcement in written or electronic form upon such advance notice as is practicable under the circumstances for the purpose of allowing the notified Party to review and comment upon such press release or public announcement. Under such circumstances, the releasing Party shall not be obligated to delay making any such press release or public communication beyond the time when the same is required to be made. Neither Party shall be required to seek the permission of the other Party to repeat any information regarding the terms of this Agreement or any amendment hereto that has already been publicly disclosed by such Party or by the other Party in accordance with this Section 9.5(a); provided that such information remains accurate as of such time and provided the frequency and form of such disclosure are reasonable.

(b) Each Party may make public statements regarding this Agreement in response to questions by the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences or financial analyst calls, provided that any such public statement or press release: (i) is not inconsistent with prior public disclosures or public statements made in accordance with Section 9.5(a) or as permitted by Section 9.3; and (ii) does not reveal (A) information regarding the terms of this Agreement that have not previously been disclosed in accordance with Section 9.5(a) or as permitted by Section 9.3 or (B) non-public information about the other Party.

(c) The Parties shall coordinate in advance with each other in connection with the filing of this Agreement (including redaction of certain provisions of this Agreement) with the SEC or other governmental agency or any stock exchange on which securities issued by a Party or its Affiliate are traded, and neither Party shall make any such filing unless the Parties have mutually agreed upon the provisions to be redacted (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld). Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to seek and obtain confidential treatment for

the provisions of this Agreement that the Parties mutually agree to redact from such filing; provided that each Party shall ultimately retain ultimate discretion to disclose such information to the SEC or any stock exchange or other governmental agency (as the case may be) as such Party determines, based on advice of legal counsel, is required to be so disclosed. Except as expressly set forth in this Article 9, neither Party (or its Affiliates) shall be obligated to consult with or obtain approval from the other Party with respect to any filings with the SEC or any stock exchange or other governmental agency where such filings do not disclose Confidential Information of the other Party.

9.6 Publication. Each Party recognizes that the publication of papers regarding results of and other information regarding Products, including oral presentations and abstracts, may be beneficial to both Parties, provided that such publications are subject to reasonable controls to protect Confidential Information. Accordingly (i) with respect to activities conducted prior to delivery of an Election to Proceed Notice, publications and the timing thereof shall be coordinated in accordance with Applicable Law through the JSC, and a Party shall have the right to review and comment on any material proposed for disclosure or publication by the other Party, such as by oral presentation, manuscript or abstract, relating to the Development or Manufacture of Compounds, and (ii) with respect to activities conducted following delivery of an Election to Proceed Notice, a Party shall have the right to review and comment on any material proposed for disclosure or publication by the other Party, such as by oral presentation, manuscript or abstract, relating to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Products that includes Confidential Information of the non-publishing Party. Before any such material is submitted for publication or disclosure (other than oral presentation materials and abstracts, which are addressed below), and subject to the foregoing, the Party proposing publication shall deliver a complete copy of such material proposed for publication to the other Party at least 45 days prior to submitting the material to a publisher or initiating such other disclosure, and such other Party shall review any such material and give its comments to the Party proposing publication within 30 days of the delivery of such material to such other Party. With respect to oral presentation materials and abstracts, the Party proposing publication shall deliver a complete copy of such material or abstracts proposed for publication to the other Party at least 21 days prior to the anticipated date of the submission or presentation, and such other Party shall make reasonable efforts to expedite review of such materials and abstracts, and shall return such items as soon as practicable to the Party proposing publication with appropriate comments, if any, but in no event later than 14 days from the date of delivery to the non-publishing Party. The publishing Party shall comply with the other Party’s request to delete references to the other Party’s Confidential Information in any such material and agrees to delay any submission for publication or other public disclosure for a period of up to an additional [***] for the purpose of preparing and filing appropriate patent applications. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9.6 shall limit Cidara’s right to publish or disclose (including oral publications and disclosures) data and information relating to AVCs other than Compounds and Products.

CIDARA EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, DESPITE THE EFFORTS AND OBLIGATIONS REQUIRED BY THIS AGREEMENT, THE DEVELOPMENT MILESTONE EVENTS, THE REGULATORY MILESTONE EVENTS, THE SALES MILESTONE EVENTS, OR NET SALES OF PRODUCT MAY NOT BE ACHIEVED AND CIDARA, IN THAT CASE, WOULD NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE DEVELOPMENT MILESTONE PAYMENTS, REGULATORY MILESTONE PAYMENTS, SALES MILESTONE PAYMENTS OR ROYALTIES, AS THE CASE MAY BE, CORRESPONDING TO SUCH UNACHIEVED EVENTS OR UNACHIEVED NET SALES, AS THE CASE MAY BE.

11. Term and Termination

11.1 Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 10.4(c) or this Article 11, shall expire upon the expiration of the last-to-expire Royalty Term for any Product.

11.2 Termination for Material Breach.

(a) A Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety (except as expressly set forth below in this Section 11.2(a) or in Section 11.2(b)) upon written notice to the other Party if such other Party is in material breach of this Agreement and has not cured such breach within [***] (or [***] with respect to any payment breach) after notice from the first Party requesting cure of the breach. In addition, a Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to a particular country, Compound or Product, on a country-by-country, Compound-by-Compound or Product-by-Product basis, upon written notice to the other Party if such other Party is in material breach of this Agreement (other than a payment breach) with respect to such country, Compound or Product and has not cured such breach within [***] after notice from the first Party requesting cure of the breach. Any such

termination shall become effective at the end of such [***] (or [***] with respect to any payment breach as set forth in the first sentence of this Section 11.2(a)) period unless the breaching Party has cured such breach prior to the end of such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such material breach (other than a material breach arising from a failure to make a payment) cannot be reasonably cured during the foregoing cure period, but is capable of cure within [***], then the breaching Party may submit to the non-breaching Party a reasonable cure plan to remedy such material breach that is reasonably acceptable to the non-breaching Party, and upon such submission, the applicable cure period will automatically be extended for so long as the breaching Party continues to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cure such material breach in accordance with such cure plan, but for no more than [***] from receipt of notice of such breach (subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth below). Any right to terminate under this Section 11.2(a) shall be stayed and the cure period tolled in the event that, during any cure period, the Party alleged to have been in material breach shall have initiated dispute resolution in accordance with Article 13 with respect to the alleged breach, which stay and tolling shall continue until such dispute has been resolved in accordance with Article 13.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a material breach of this Agreement by Janssen that is not cured within the applicable notice period set forth in Section 11.2(a) and that solely pertains to one or more specific Compounds or Products or one or more countries in the Territory, Cidara may terminate this Agreement solely with respect to those Compounds, Products or countries (as applicable), in each case, to which such breach pertains; provided, however, that (i) if the material breach pertains to [***], then Cidara may terminate this Agreement with respect to [***] and (ii) if the material breach pertains to [***], then Cidara may terminate this Agreement with respect to [***].

(c) For clarity, in the event of material breach of this Agreement by Cidara that is not cured within the applicable notice period set forth in Section 11.2(a), Janssen, at its sole discretion, may either: (i) terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.2(a) (in addition to pursuing any remedy that may be available to Janssen at law or in equity as a result of Cidara’s breach of this Agreement); or (ii) elect (A) not to terminate this Agreement, (B) to retain the License, subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (C) pursue any remedy that may be available to Janssen at law or in equity as a result of Cidara’s breach of this Agreement, without prejudice to Janssen’s right to terminate this Agreement at a later date pursuant to Section 11.2(a) (for that uncured material breach or any other uncured material breach of this Agreement by Cidara).

11.3 Termination for Bankruptcy. A Party may terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon written notice to the other Party if the other Party files in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any state or country, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of the Party or of substantially all of its assets, or if the other Party is served with an involuntary petition against it, filed in any insolvency proceeding, and such other Party consents to the involuntary bankruptcy or such petition is not dismissed within 90 days after the filing thereof, or if the other Party shall propose or be a party to any dissolution or liquidation, or if the other Party shall make an assignment of substantially all of its assets for the benefit of creditors.

11.4 Termination for Failure to Deliver Election to Proceed Notice. Cidara shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon written notice to Janssen if Janssen fails to deliver the Election to Proceed Notice to Cidara in accordance with Section 4.8(b) prior to expiration of the Election Period.

11.5 Termination by Janssen for Safety Concern. Janssen may terminate this Agreement in its entirety or on a Product-by-Product basis by written notice to Cidara in the event that Janssen determines, in its reasonable and good-faith judgment, that continued Development or Commercialization of a Product would be unethical or unreasonable due to a safety-related reason, such as if Janssen believes, based on its reasonable and good-faith assessment of relevant data, that continuation of human use of a Product has resulted in, or has a significant risk of resulting in, the occurrence of a safety or tolerability finding that would raise material concerns regarding the clinical benefit of the Product for its target population (for example, harm significantly in excess of an acceptable side-effect profile). Such termination shall be effective immediately upon Janssen’s written notice to Cidara.

11.6 Discretionary Termination by Janssen.

(a) During the Research Program Term either prior to the Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study Completion Date or after delivery of the Election to Proceed Notice, Janssen may unilaterally terminate this Agreement in its entirety for any reason and without penalty upon 90 days’ written notice to Cidara, provided that if any Cidara Phase 1 Trial, or, solely in the case of termination prior to the Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study Completion Date, the Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study, has been Initiated and is ongoing at the time of such termination, such Cidara Phase 1 Trial or Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study will be completed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 6.2. In the event of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.6(a) during the Research Program Term either prior to the Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study Completion Date or after delivery of the Election to Proceed Notice, Janssen shall, in addition to complying with its obligations with respect to completion of any such ongoing Cidara Phase 1 Trial, or, solely in the case of termination prior to the Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study Completion Date, ongoing Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study, as set forth above and its obligations under Sections 11.7 and 11.8, reimburse Cidara for any non-cancelable commitments for Out-of-Pocket Expenses incurred by Cidara in accordance with the Research Budget prior to Janssen’s delivery of written notice of termination.

(b) After the Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study Completion Date and prior to expiration of the Election Period, Janssen may unilaterally terminate this Agreement in its entirety for any reason immediately upon written notice to Cidara, provided that if any Cidara Phase 1 Trial has been Initiated and is ongoing at the time of such termination, such Cidara Phase 1 Trial will be completed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 6.2. In the event of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.6(b) after the Cidara Phase 2 [***] Study Completion Date and prior to expiration of the Election Period, Janssen shall, in addition to complying with its obligations with respect to completion of any such ongoing Cidara Phase 1 Trial as set forth above and its obligations under Sections 11.7 and 11.8, reimburse Cidara for any non-cancelable commitments for Out-of-Pocket Expenses incurred by Cidara in accordance with the Research Budget prior to Janssen’s delivery of written notice of termination.

(c) After delivery of the Election to Proceed Notice, Janssen may unilaterally terminate this Agreement for any reason, in its entirety, or on a country-by-country, Compound-by-Compound or Product-by-Product basis, upon 90 days’ written notice to Cidara, provided, however, that (i) if Janssen terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.6(c) with respect to [***], then Janssen shall be deemed to have terminated this Agreement with respect to [***] pursuant to this Section 11.6(c); and (ii) if Janssen terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.6(c) with respect to [***], then this Agreement shall be deemed to have been terminated [***] pursuant to this Section 11.6(c).

(ii) Effective upon such termination, Janssen shall, and it hereby does, grant to Cidara an exclusive, perpetual license, with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers, under (A) Janssen Technology (subject to Cidara agreeing to assume Janssen’s obligations to any Third Parties), including AVC Improvement Technology and Manufacturing Improvement Technology within the Janssen Technology, solely to the extent that (1) such Janssen Technology was actually used by Janssen, its Affiliates or Sublicensees in IND-Enabling Studies, Janssen Clinical Activities, Manufacture or Commercialization of any Terminated Compound or Terminated Product prior to the effective date of such termination, but excluding any such Janssen Technology (except as set forth in clause (2) below) that Janssen, its Affiliates and Sublicensees had ceased to use in the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of any Terminated Compound or Terminated Product prior to the cessation by Janssen, its Affiliates and Sublicensees of Development, Manufacture or Commercialization, respectively, of such Terminated Compound or Terminated Product, or (2) in the case of any Janssen Patent, such Janssen Patent Covers any Terminated Compound or Terminated Product; and (B) Janssen’s interest in Joint Technology, including AVC Improvement Technology and Manufacturing Improvement Technology within the Joint Technology; in each case ((A) and (B)), to Develop, have Developed, Manufacture, have Manufactured, use, sell, offer for sale, have sold, promote, distribute, import, export and otherwise Commercialize any such Terminated Compound and Terminated Product in the Field in the Terminated Countries (the “Termination License”); provided, however, that Cidara shall agree to assume all payment obligations to any Third Parties arising from Cidara’s, or its Affiliates’ or Third Party sublicensees’ exploitation of the Termination License. If such termination occurs [***], the Termination License granted upon such termination shall be [***]. If such termination occurs [***], then [***], Cidara will [***]. For the purposes of this Section 11.7(c)(ii), [***];

(iii) As promptly as practicable (and in any event within [***]) after such termination, Janssen shall: (A) to the extent not previously provided to Cidara, deliver to Cidara true, correct and complete copies of all Regulatory Documentation for Terminated Compounds and Terminated Products in the Field in the Territory (in each case, whether held in the name of Janssen, its Affiliate or a Sublicensee), and disclose to Cidara all previously-undisclosed: (1) [***]; and (2) such other Janssen Inventions and Janssen Know-How [***] IND-Enabling Studies, Janssen Clinical Activities, Manufacture or Commercialization of any Terminated Compound or Terminated Product prior to the effective date of such termination, but [***] Janssen Invention or Janssen Know-How that Janssen, its Affiliates and Sublicensees [***] in the Development, Manufacture or

Commercialization of any Terminated Compound or Terminated Product [***] by Janssen, its Affiliates and Sublicensees of Development, Manufacture or Commercialization, respectively, of such Terminated Compound or Terminated Product; (B) transfer or assign, or cause to be transferred or assigned, to Cidara or its designee, or to the extent not so assignable, take all reasonable actions to make available to Cidara or its designee the benefits of all Terminated Product Regulatory Documentation in the Field in the Territory (in each case, whether held in the name of Janssen, its Affiliate or a Sublicensee); and (C) take such other actions and execute such other instruments, assignments and documents as may be necessary to effect, evidence, register and record the transfer, assignment or other conveyance of rights under this Section 11.7(c)(iii) to Cidara;

(iv) Without limiting the generality of Section 11.7(c)(iii), at Cidara’s request, Janssen shall promptly transfer all safety data from Development or Commercialization of any Terminated Product in the possession or Control of Janssen or its Affiliates to Cidara, and Cidara shall accept such transfer of such data. Cidara shall assume all pharmacovigilance responsibility for such Terminated Products, including but not limited to serious adverse event and pregnancy reporting, in accordance with Applicable Law;

(v) Janssen shall, at Cidara’s option, either: (i) promptly wind-down any ongoing Janssen Clinical Activities or other Development activities with respect to a Terminated Compound or Terminated Product in the Field in the Territory in an orderly fashion; or (ii) promptly transition such activities to Cidara or its designee, in which event Cidara shall assume any and all liability for such activities arising after the completion of such transition; in each case ((i) and (ii)), with due regard for patient safety and in compliance with all Applicable Laws and international guidelines. In addition, Janssen shall, as directed by Cidara, assign to Cidara or its designee any or all clinical trial agreements or commercial agreements with respect to Terminated Product (or to the extent not so assignable, take all reasonable actions to make available to Cidara or its designee the benefits of such agreements);

(vi) Janssen shall reasonably cooperate, at Cidara’s request and expense, with Cidara and its designee(s) to facilitate a smooth, orderly and prompt transition of any or all ongoing CMC Development and Manufacturing activities with respect to Terminated Product to Cidara or its designee(s);

(vii) Cidara shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to prosecute and maintain all Joint Patents in the Terminated Countries, at Cidara’s sole expense and by counsel selected by Cidara. In the event that, after the effective date of such termination, Cidara desires to abandon or cease prosecution or maintenance of any Joint Patent, Cidara shall provide written notice to Janssen of such intention to abandon promptly after Cidara makes such determination (which notice shall be given no later than 30 days prior to the next deadline for any action that must be taken with respect to such Joint Patent in the relevant patent office). In such case, Janssen shall have the right, in its discretion, exercisable upon written notice to Cidara, to assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance of such Joint Patent, at its sole cost and expense and by counsel of its own choice. Janssen will cooperate with Cidara and provide Cidara with reasonable assistance with such prosecution and maintenance activities with respect to Joint Patents;

(viii) Cidara shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any action or proceeding to enforce any Joint Patent with respect to Product Infringement in the Terminated Countries, at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice. If Cidara fails to bring and control any such action or proceeding within (A) [***] following the notice of alleged infringement, or (B) [***] before the time limit, if any, set forth in the Applicable Laws for the filing of such actions, whichever comes first, then Janssen shall have the right to bring and control any such action, at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice, and Cidara shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice. In the event a Party brings an infringement action in accordance with this paragraph, the other Party shall cooperate fully, including, if required to bring such action, the furnishing of a power of attorney or being named as a party. The Party that brings such infringement action shall not enter into any settlement or compromise of any action under this paragraph: (1) in a manner that would diminish the rights or interests of the other Party without the written consent of such other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; or (2) that would impose any cost or liability on the other Party, or admit the invalidity or unenforceability of any Patent Right Controlled by the other Party, without such other Party’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in such other Party’s sole discretion. Except as otherwise agreed by the Parties in connection with a cost-sharing arrangement, any recovery as a result of any action or proceeding pursuant to this paragraph, whether by way of settlement or otherwise, shall first be used first to reimburse Party that brought and controlled such action or proceeding for its documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including court, attorneys’ and professional fees) incurred in connection with such action or proceeding, and then to reimburse the other Party for its documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including court, attorneys’ and professional fees) incurred in connection with such action or proceeding (to the extent not previously reimbursed by the Enforcing Party), and any remainder of the recovery after reimbursement of the litigation costs and expenses of the Parties, shall be retained by the Enforcing Party. In the case of infringement of a Joint Patent other than Product Infringement, the Parties shall mutually agree in good faith on a case-by-case basis whether to jointly bring and control any action or proceeding to enforce such Joint Patent, or whether one Party will bring and control any action or proceeding to enforce such Joint Patent, and, in each case, how the costs and expenses of such action or proceeding, and any recovery from such action or proceeding, will be allocated between the Parties;

(ix) Janssen shall assign to Cidara, all right, title and interest in and to all Product Trademarks for Terminated Products in each Terminated Country, including all trademark applications and registrations and all goodwill therein, and all Product Domain Names for Terminated Products in each Terminated Country. For clarity, Product Trademarks do not include the Janssen Housemarks. Cidara shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses related to the assignments, including recordal of the same. For a period of up to [***] after the termination date, at Cidara’s cost and expense, (1) Janssen shall provide to Cidara the necessary information to permit Cidara to effect and perfect the transfer of the applications and registrations of the Product Trademarks and Product Domain Names and (2) Janssen shall reasonably cooperate with Cidara in executing appropriate documents to effectuate the transfer or assignment of the Product Trademarks and Product Domain Names that are in the name of Janssen or any of its Affiliates. After such period, Janssen shall have no further obligation with respect to the matters covered by this Section 11.7(c)(ix);

(x) Subject to Section 11.7(c)(xi), Cidara shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase from Janssen any or all usable inventory of Terminated Compound and Terminated Product in Janssen’s or its Affiliates’ possession as of the date of termination at a supply price equal to [***] such inventory, determined in accordance with Janssen’s standard cost accounting policies that are in accordance with GAAP and consistently applied across all of Janssen’s manufacturing network to other products that Janssen manufactures. Any packaging, transport, insurance and other costs relating to delivery shall be at Cidara’s expense;

(xi) Janssen will have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of any inventory of any Terminated Product on hand at the time of such termination or in the process of Manufacturing for a period of [***] following the effective date of termination; provided that any revenue obtained from such disposal will be treated as Net Sales and the provisions of Article 6 will apply to such Net Sales;

(xii) If Janssen was, prior to termination, Manufacturing, or having Manufactured on its behalf, any quantities of Terminated Compound or Terminated Product, then at Cidara’s request, until the earlier of (A) such time as Cidara has secured another source thereof that is able to meet Cidara’s quality and quantity requirements, and (B) [***] after such termination, Janssen shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to supply, or cause to be supplied, to Cidara such quantities thereof as Cidara may reasonably require for the Development and Commercialization of Terminated Products in the Field in the Territory; provided that Cidara shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to secure another source of supply as soon as reasonably practicable. Such material shall be provided at a transfer price equal to [***] incurred in the Manufacturing or acquisition of (and to the extent directly attributable to) such inventory, determined in accordance with Janssen’s standard cost accounting policies that are in accordance with GAAP and consistently applied across all of Janssen’s manufacturing network to other products that Janssen manufactures [***]. Any packaging, transport, insurance and other costs relating to delivery shall be at Cidara’s expense;

(xiii) Janssen shall, at Cidara’s request, use Commercially Reasonable Efforts (provided that, for clarity, such efforts shall not require Janssen to make any payments unless Cidara agrees in writing to reimburse Janssen for such payments) to facilitate negotiations between Cidara and any of Janssen’s Third Party subcontractors performing any ongoing Development, Manufacturing, or Commercialization activities with respect to any Terminated Compound or Terminated Product, or, at Cidara’s reasonable request, and to the extent permissible under any agreement between Janssen and such Third Party subcontractor, provided that such agreement relates only to Terminated Compound or Terminated Product and subject to Cidara’s agreement to bear any associated costs, assign such agreement related solely to Terminated Compound or Terminated Product to Cidara; and

(xiv) In the event that Cidara requests any manufacturing technology transfer for Compound or Product in connection with the exercise of licenses granted to Cidara upon termination of this Agreement, Cidara shall be responsible for all the costs of effecting such manufacturing technology transfer.

(d) Worldwide Termination for Compound or Product. Following termination of this Agreement with respect to a particular Compound or Product in all countries but not of this Agreement in its entirety, if Cidara is not aware of any other Compound or Product that is being Developed, Manufactured or Commercialized by or on behalf of Janssen, Cidara may inquire of Janssen whether any other Compound or Product is then being Developed, Manufactured or Commercialized by or on behalf of Janssen, and Janssen shall promptly discuss such issue with Cidara in good faith.

11.8 Accrued Obligations; Survival. Neither expiration nor termination of this Agreement shall relieve either Party of any obligation or liability accruing prior to such expiration or termination, nor shall expiration or termination of this Agreement preclude either Party from pursuing all rights and remedies it may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity, with respect to breach of this Agreement.

12.1 By Janssen. Janssen will indemnify, defend and hold Cidara and its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, a “Cidara Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses or loss, including reasonable legal expense and attorneys’ fees (collectively, “Losses”) to which any Cidara Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding in each case, by any Third Party (“Claim”) to the extent such Losses arise directly or indirectly out of: (a) the practice by Janssen or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees of the License; (b) the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Compounds or Products by or on behalf of Janssen or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees; (c) the breach by Janssen of any provision of this Agreement (including any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Janssen

herein); or (d) the negligence or willful misconduct of any Janssen Indemnitee (defined below), except, in each case ((a)-(d)), to the extent such Losses result from the negligence or willful misconduct of any Cidara Indemnitee or the breach by Cidara of any provision of this Agreement (including any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Cidara herein).

12.2 By Cidara. Cidara will indemnify, defend and hold Janssen and its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, a “Janssen Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all Losses to which any Janssen Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any Claim to the extent such Losses arise directly or indirectly out of: (a) the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of any Compounds or Products by or on behalf of Cidara or any of its Affiliates or licensees or sublicensees prior to the Effective Date; (b) the breach by Cidara of any provision of this Agreement (including any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Cidara herein); (c) the negligence or willful misconduct of any Cidara Indemnitee; (d) in the event of termination of this Agreement by Cidara pursuant to Section 11.2(a), Section 11.3 or Section 11.4, or termination of this Agreement by Janssen pursuant to Section 11.3, Section 11.5 or Section 11.6, the practice by Cidara or any of its Affiliates or sublicensees of the license granted to Cidara pursuant to Section 11.7(c)(ii) after such termination of this Agreement; or (e) in the event of termination of this Agreement, the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Terminated Compounds or Terminated Products by or on behalf of Cidara or any of its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees after such termination of this Agreement, except, in each case ((a)-(e)), to the extent such Losses result from the negligence or willful misconduct of any Janssen Indemnitee or the breach by Janssen of any provision of this Agreement (including any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Janssen herein).

12.3 Procedure. In the event that a Party (the “Indemnified Party”) seeks indemnification under Section 12.1 or 12.2, the Indemnified Party shall: (a) inform the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of a Claim as soon as reasonably practicable after it receives notice of the Claim (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure by an Indemnified Party to give notice of a Claim as provided in this Section 12.3 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually damaged as a result of such failure to give notice); (b) permit the Indemnifying Party to assume direction and control of the defense of the Claim (including the right to settle the Claim solely for monetary consideration); and (c) cooperate as requested (at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) in the defense of the Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume control of such defense within 15 days after receiving notice of the Claim from the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party may control such defense and, without limiting the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all reasonable and documented costs, including reasonable attorney fees, incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending itself within 30 days after receipt of any invoice therefor from the Indemnified Party. The Party not controlling such defense may participate therein at its own expense. The Party controlling such defense shall keep the other Party advised of the status of such Claim and the defense thereof and shall consider recommendations made by the other Party with respect thereto. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of such Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of such Claim or consent to any judgment in respect thereof that does not include a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability

with respect thereto, that imposes any liability or obligation on the Indemnified Party or that acknowledges fault by the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party.

12.4 Insurance. During the Term and for a period of not less than three years thereafter, each Party, at its own expense, shall maintain (a) general liability insurance including product liability-completed operations coverage or separately maintain product liability-completed operations insurance that, on its own or together with an umbrella policy, is in an amount not less than [***] per occurrence, and (b) clinical trial insurance in full compliance with local regulations for all clinical studies it sponsors. In the event clinical trial insurance is not required by local insurance regulations, each Party’s products-completed operations insurance shall provide coverage for products undergoing clinical study. Janssen shall have the right to self-insure all such coverage. Each Party shall provide a certificate of insurance (or evidence of self-insurance) evidencing such coverage to the other Party upon request.

13. Dispute Resolution

13.1 Exclusive Dispute Resolution Mechanism. The Parties agree that, except as expressly set forth in Article 3 or Section 4.11, 8.2(d)(i), 8.2(d)(ii) or 13.4, the procedures set forth in this Article 13 shall be the exclusive mechanism for resolving any dispute, controversy, or claim between the Parties that may arise from time to time pursuant to, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any Party’s rights or obligations hereunder or any questions regarding the formation, existence, validity, enforceability, performance, interpretation, tort, breach or termination hereof (collectively, “Disputes”) that cannot be resolved through good faith negotiation between the Parties.

13.2 Resolution by Senior Executives. In the event of any Dispute, the Parties shall first attempt in good faith to resolve such Dispute by negotiation and consultation. In the event that such Dispute is not resolved through such negotiation within 30 days after either Party’s request, either Party may, by written notice to the other Party, refer the Dispute for attempted resolution by good faith negotiation between the Senior Executives within 30 days after such notice is received. Except as set forth in Section 13.4, if any Dispute is not resolved by the Senior Executives within the above 30-day period, either Party may, in its sole discretion, seek resolution of such Dispute in accordance with Section 13.3, and each Party hereby expressly waives its right to seek resolution of such Dispute in a court of competent jurisdiction.

13.3 Arbitration.

(a) With respect to any Disputes that are not resolved by the Senior Executives in accordance with Section 13.2, the Dispute shall be submitted by either Party for resolution in arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to its then current Commercial Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”), except where they conflict with this Section 13.3, in which case this Section 13.3 shall control.

(b) The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA Rules by an arbitral tribunal of three neutral arbitrators; provided that: (i) no such arbitrator shall be

current or former employee or director, or current stockholder, of either Party, any of their respective Affiliates or any Sublicensee; (ii) each arbitrator shall have experience and familiarity with commercial licensing practices in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries; and (iii) each arbitrator shall be a lawyer with at least 15 years’ experience with a law firm or corporate law department of over 25 lawyers or who was a judge of a court of general jurisdiction. Each Party shall be entitled to nominate one arbitrator. The other Party may object to the nomination on grounds of bias, lack of subject matter experience, or any other legitimate grounds. AAA will be the final decision maker if there is a dispute over the objection. Once the Party-nominated arbitrators are established, the two Party-nominated arbitrators shall nominate a third arbitrator, who shall act as chairperson. Each arbitrator shall abide by the Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes.

(c) The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be New York, New York, and the language used in any such proceeding shall be English.

(d) Any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et. seq.). The arbitrator(s) shall be guided, but not bound, by the CPR Protocol on Disclosure of Documents and Presentation of Witnesses in Commercial Arbitration (www.cpradr.org) (“Protocol”). The Parties will attempt to agree on modes of document disclosure, electronic discovery, witness presentation, etc. within the parameters of the Protocol. If the Parties cannot agree on discovery and presentation issues, the arbitrator(s) shall decide on presentation modes and provide for discovery within the Protocol, understanding that the Parties contemplate reasonable discovery. The arbitral tribunal shall, in rendering an award, apply the substantive law of the State of New York, USA, without giving effect to any conflicts of law provisions thereof that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction, and without giving effect to any of its rules or laws relating to arbitration. The award shall include a written statement describing the essential findings and conclusions upon which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitral tribunal’s authority to award special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages or lost profits shall be subject to the limitation set forth in Section 10.7, except to the extent the substantive laws of the State of New York, USA, do not permit such limitation.

(e) Except to the extent necessary to confirm or enforce an award or as may be required by Applicable Law, neither a Party nor the arbitral tribunal may disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties.

(f) The award rendered by the arbitral tribunal shall be final, binding and

non-appealable (subject only to the Parties’ right to request correction of any errors in computation, clerical or typographical errors, or other errors of a similar nature, and the arbitral tribunal’s right to make any such correction on its own initiative, in each case, in accordance with the AAA Rules), and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(g) Each Party shall bear its own costs and attorney’s fees, and the Parties shall equally bear the fees, costs, and expenses of the arbitrators and the arbitration proceedings, including costs and expenses of translators for the arbitration proceedings; provided, however,

that the arbitrators may exercise discretion to award arbitration costs and translation costs, excluding attorney’s fees, to the prevailing Party.

13.4 Injunctive Relief; Court Actions. Either Party may apply to the arbitral tribunal for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or other equitable relief in the context of a bona fide emergency or prospective irreparable harm, and such an action may be filed and maintained notwithstanding any ongoing discussions between the Parties or any ongoing arbitration proceeding. In addition, either Party may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to resolve disputes pertaining to the scope, construction, validity, and enforceability of any patent, and no such claim shall be subject to arbitration pursuant to Section 13.3.

14. Efforts to Obtain Clearances

14.1 Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Except for this Article 14 and Article 9, which shall become effective as of the Execution Date, this Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from the Execution Date to the Effective Date, each of the Parties will use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions, to file or cause to be filed all documents, to give or cause to be given all notices to Governmental Authorities or other Persons, to obtain or cause to be obtained all authorizations, consents, waivers, approvals, permits or orders from Governmental Authorities or other Persons, to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other order in any suit or proceeding which would otherwise have the effect of preventing or delaying the Effective Date, and to do or cause to be done all other things necessary, proper or advisable, in order to cause the Effective Date to occur as soon as practicable following the Execution Date. If the Effective Date has not occurred within 180 days after the Execution Date, then either Party may terminate this Agreement upon notice, in which case, all provisions of this Agreement shall terminate and be of no force or effect whatsoever, except only that: (a) any liability of either Party for failing to comply with this Article 14 or Article 9 shall survive; and (b) Article 9 shall survive. Upon the request of either Party, the Parties will memorialize the Effective Date in a written document for the Parties’ records.

14.2 Antitrust Filing.

(a) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of the Parties will prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, any required notification pursuant to the HSR Act that is required to be made by such Party or its ultimate parent with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Contemplated Transactions”) as promptly as reasonably practicable after, and in no event more than 10 Business Days following the Execution Date. The Parties will (i) furnish each other with all necessary information, (ii) cooperate with each other in connection with the preparation of such filings, submissions and registrations and seek to secure the expiration or termination of all applicable waiting periods (or any extension thereof) under the HSR Act, (iii) give the other Party prompt notice of the making or commencement of any request, investigation, or action brought by a Governmental Authority or Third Party, (iv) keep the other Party informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation or action and (v) obtain all such authorizations, consents, waivers, approvals,

permits and orders as soon as practicable following the Execution Date. Each Party will provide the other Party’s counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment in advance, and in good faith consider the views of the other Party’s counsel, incorporating the other Party’s counsel’s comments where appropriate, on any substantive filing, submission, registration or other written communication to be given to, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting or conference with, the FTC, the Antitrust Division of the DOJ or any other Governmental Authority in connection with the efforts taken pursuant to this Section 14.2 or otherwise in connection with the Contemplated Transactions. Janssen shall be responsible for any filing fees required under the HSR Act. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Janssen shall, on behalf of the Parties, control and lead all communications and strategy for dealing with any Governmental Authority under the HSR Act.

(b) If any investigation, inquiry or other action, whether initiated by a Governmental Authority or a private party, arising out of or relating to any such filing, submission or registration or otherwise relating to the Contemplated Transactions is initiated or threatened, each Party will keep the other Party reasonably informed of any material communications and developments in connection therewith. Subject to Applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information and appropriate confidentiality protections, Cidara and Janssen, or their counsel, to the extent practicable, shall have the right to participate in all substantive communications or meetings with any Governmental Authority in connection with review of the Contemplated Transactions under the HSR Act, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority.

(c) The Parties will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to promptly respond to all inquiries made by the FTC, DOJ and any other applicable Governmental Authorities in connection with such filings, submissions or registrations or otherwise in connection with the Contemplated Transactions and to promptly provide to such Governmental Authorities any additional information and documentary material requested under Applicable Law. If any objections are raised or asserted with respect to the Contemplated Transactions under Applicable Law or if any action is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by the FTC, the DOJ or any other applicable Governmental Authority or any private party challenging any of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement as being in violation of any Applicable Law or which would otherwise prevent, impede or delay the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, the Parties will use their Commercially Reasonable Efforts to resolve any such objections or actions so as to permit consummation of the Contemplated Transactions as soon as reasonably practicable, provided that Commercially Reasonable Efforts of Janssen will not require Janssen or any of its Affiliates to agree to any prohibition, limitation, divestiture or other requirement that would (a) limit or otherwise adversely affect the right of Janssen to exploit the Compounds and Products or (b) require or compel Cidara, Janssen or any Affiliate of Janssen to dispose of all or any portion of its properties or assets.

15. Miscellaneous

15.1 Rights Upon Bankruptcy. The Parties acknowledge and agree that all rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement to Janssen or Cidara are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and other similar foreign laws, licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined under

Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or other similar foreign laws. The Parties agree that the Parties shall retain and may fully exercise all of their rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (or any comparable provision of the laws applicable to bankruptcies or insolvencies), and other similar foreign laws. The Parties further agree that, in the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against a Party under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the non-debtor Party shall be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual property and all embodiments of such intellectual property and the same, which, if not already in the non-debtor Party’s possession, shall be promptly delivered to it (a) upon any such commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding upon the non-debtor Party’s written request therefor, unless the debtor Party continues to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement or (b) if not delivered under clause (a) above, following the rejection of this Agreement by or on behalf of the debtor Party upon written request therefor by the non-debtor Party. Whenever a debtor Party or any of its successors or assigns provides to the non-debtor Party any of the intellectual property licensed hereunder (or any embodiment thereof) pursuant to this Section 15.1, the non-debtor Party shall have the right to perform the debtor Party’s obligations hereunder with respect to such intellectual property, but neither such provision nor such performance by such non-debtor Party shall release the debtor Party from liability resulting from rejection of the license or the failure to perform such obligations.

Form of Press Release

Cidara Therapeutics Announces Agreement with Janssen to Develop and Commercialize AVCs for the Prevention and Treatment of Influenza

Collaboration includes exclusive worldwide rights to Cidara’s CD388 and other influenza Antiviral Conjugates (AVCs) for up to $780 million in upfront, milestone payments and R&D funding

Cidara to advance CD388 through Phase 2 development funded by Janssen

Conference call and webcast today at 8:30 AM Eastern Time

SAN DIEGO, March XX, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cidara Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDTX), a biotechnology company developing long-acting therapeutics designed to transform the standard of care for patients facing serious fungal or viral infections, today announced that it has entered into an exclusive worldwide license and collaboration agreement with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Janssen), one of the Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson, to develop and commercialize Cidara’s Cloudbreak® antiviral conjugates (AVCs) for the prevention and treatment of seasonal and pandemic influenza. This agreement was facilitated by Johnson & Johnson Innovation.

Under the collaboration, Cidara will be responsible for the development and manufacturing of the first influenza AVC, CD388, into the clinic and through Phase 2 clinical development, and Janssen will be responsible for late-stage development, manufacturing, registration and global commercialization. Cidara will receive an upfront payment of $27 million and Janssen will fund all future research, development, manufacturing and commercialization for CD388. In addition to the upfront payment, Cidara is eligible to receive up to an aggregate of $753 million in budgeted R&D funding and in development, regulatory and commercial milestones, plus tiered royalties on worldwide sales in the mid to high single digits. Cidara has the option to co-detail CD388 in the U.S.

“In the U.S. alone there are an estimated 100 million individuals who are at high risk for complications due to seasonal influenza, and each year there are up to 650,000 influenza deaths worldwide. This collaboration represents a significant advancement toward fulfilling our vision of providing universal, seasonal protection against all seasonal and pandemic strains of influenza,” said Jeffrey Stein, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Cidara. "We believe Janssen, with its expertise in the development and commercialization of vaccines and therapies for viral respiratory diseases, is the ideal partner to rapidly advance CD388. Importantly, this

I-1

agreement validates our Cloudbreak® antiviral platform as we continue to advance our AVC programs in RSV, HIV and SARS-CoV-2.”

CD388 is a long-acting antiviral immunotherapy designed to deliver universal protection for an entire influenza season. By targeting a highly conserved region on the influenza virus, CD388 has the potential to protect individuals from all influenza strains, including seasonal and pandemic influenza A, influenza B and major clinically characterized drug resistant influenza strains. CD388 retains its potent antiviral activity even in immunocompromised animal models of influenza infection and thus is expected to be clinically effective across all patient populations, regardless of immune status and circulating strains. Cidara expects to file an Investigational New Drug Application for CD388 with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration by the end of 2021.

The effectiveness of the agreement is subject to the expiration or earlier termination of all applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act.

Forward-Looking Statements

I-2

This release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. “Forward-looking statements” describe future expectations, plans, results, or strategies and are generally preceded by words such as “anticipates,” “expect,” “may,” “plan” or “will”. Forward-looking statements in this release include, but are not limited to, statements related to the potential for influenza AVCs, including CD388, to provide universal protection against all influenza strains for an entire season, whether CD388 will be clinically effective in immunocompromised patients, whether Cidara will file an IND for CD388 by the end of 2021, and whether clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act will delay the effectiveness of the collaboration or whether or not the collaboration will ultimately receive such clearance and become effective. Such statements are subject to a multitude of risks and uncertainties that could cause future circumstances, events, or results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements, such as unanticipated delays in or negative results from Cidara’s pre-clinical or clinical trials, impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic or other obstacles to the development of CD388. These and other risks are identified under the caption “Risk Factors” in Cidara’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings subsequently made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All forward-looking statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date on which they were made and are based on management’s assumptions and estimates as of such date. Cidara does not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of the receipt of new information, the occurrence of future events or otherwise.
