• Commercialization Plans As soon as practicable after formation of the JCC (following Acucela’s exercise of an Opt-In Right under Section 3.1), the JCC shall prepare and approve the initial Commercialization Plan for Commercialization of the Licensed Product for the Initial Indication in the Initial Formulation (and, if applicable, any New Formulation or Other Indication Product) in the Territory. The Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to ensure that such initial Commercialization Plan for Commercialization of the Licensed Product for the Initial Indication in the Initial Formulation is consistent with the general Commercialization Plan outline set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and incorporated herein (the “General Commercialization Plan Outline”). The JCC shall prepare and approve a separate Commercialization Plan for Commercialization of Licensed Product for the Initial Indication in the Initial Formulation in the Territory and for Commercialization of each Other Indication Product and New Formulation (if any) in the Territory, and shall update and amend each Commercialization Plan not less than annually or more frequently as needed to take into account changed circumstances or completion, commencement or cessation of Commercialization activities not contemplated by the then-current Commercialization Plan. Amendments and revisions to the Commercialization Plan shall be reviewed and discussed, in advance, by the JCC, and Otsuka agrees to consider proposals and suggestions made by Acucela regarding amendments and revisions to the Commercialization Plan. Any amendment or revision to the Commercialization Plan that provides for an increase or decrease in the number of FTEs for any Phase 3b Clinical Trials or Post-Approval Studies as compared to the previous version of the Commercialization Plan, or that provides for addition or discontinuation of tasks or activities as compared to the previous version of the Commercialization Plan, or that moves forward the timetable for activities reflected in the Commercialization Plan, shall provide for a reasonable ramp-up or wind-down period, as applicable, to accommodate a smooth and orderly transition of Commercialization activities to the amended or revised Commercialization Plan.

If a Development Milestone for a Product is achieved without the preceding Development Milestone(s) having been achieved for such Product, then the Development Milestone Payment for such preceding Development Milestone(s) shall be paid by Moderna to Carisma together with ​ ​ the Development Milestone Payment for the Development Milestone that was achieved. For example, if the [**] Development Milestone [**] in the table above is achieved for a Product but the [**] Development Milestone [**] in the table above had not been achieved for such Product, then Moderna would pay the Development Milestone Payment for both such [**] Development Milestone and [**] Development Milestone upon achievement of the [**] Development Milestone. Each of the Development Milestone Payments set forth above shall be payable one time only per Product. If Moderna or its Affiliates or Sublicensees Develops a Product that has achieved at least one Development Milestone and subsequently discontinues Development of such Product and Develops a different Product incorporating or directed to the same combination of Collaboration Targets (whether one Collaboration Target or multiple Collaboration Targets), then Moderna shall be required to pay Development Milestone Payments for such different Product only for Development Milestones that had not been achieved by such discontinued Product.

• Sublicense Rights Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Astellas shall have the right to grant sublicenses of the rights granted to it under Section 3.1.1 and 2.5.3(c) through multiple tiers to its Affiliates, provided that Astellas shall be and remain responsible for performance of all its obligations under this Agreement, and any action by an Affiliate shall be deemed an action by Astellas for which it is responsible. Astellas and its Affiliates may grant sublicenses through multiple tiers to Third Parties (a) whose primary business is contract manufacturing, solely for manufacturing and supplying Licensed Compound or Product to Astellas or any Related Party or (b) to a subcontractor to perform Astellas’s assigned responsibilities under this Agreement or any Research Plan, Development Plan or Co-Promotion Plan. All other sublicenses to be granted by Astellas or any Astellas Affiliate in the Joint Development Territory prior to […***…] will require prior written approval from Ambit, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that in the event such sublicense is to all of Astellas’s rights in the U.S. or the Joint Development Territory to a Person who is not an Astellas Affiliate such approval shall be at Ambit’s sole discretion. In the case of sublicenses pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence above, Astellas shall provide to Ambit, upon Ambit’ written request, a copy of all executed agreements in which rights granted by Ambit under this Agreement are sublicensed (and Astellas shall have the right to make reasonable redactions prior to providing such agreements(s)). Ambit shall treat all such sublicense agreements as Astellas’s Confidential Information. Astellas or its Affiliates may grant sublicenses (i) in the Joint Development Territory at any time after the first NDA Submission in the Joint Development Territory, provided that, with respect to each applicable Product in the U.S., the Required Exercise Date has occurred and Ambit has not exercised the Co-Promotion Option or the Co-Promotion Term has expired or terminated and (ii) outside the Joint Development Territory, in each case ((i) and (ii)) through multiple tiers of Sublicensees without Ambit’s approval. Each sublicense granted by Astellas pursuant to this Section 3.1.2 shall be subject and subordinate to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any sublicense granted by Astellas shall impose on the Sublicensee obligations consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with each Sublicensee being required to comply with the obligations under this Agreement applicable to Sublicensees, and also to comply with the generally-applicable obligations of this Agreement that are appropriate for application to Sublicensees. Astellas shall ensure that all Persons to which it (or its Affiliate) grants sublicenses comply with all applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, and Astellas shall be responsible for any failure of any such Sublicensee to comply with such terms or conditions, with the further understanding that any action or omission by any such Sublicensee that, if committed by Astellas would be a breach of this Agreement (with respect to those country(ies)) in which such Sublicensee is sublicensed), will be deemed a breach by Astellas of this Agreement (with respect to those country(ies) in which such Sublicensee is sublicensed) for which Astellas is responsible. Without limiting the foregoing, no sublicense shall modify Ambit’s rights or obligations under this Agreement (including Ambit’s Co-Promotion rights). Without limiting the foregoing, any sublicense agreement shall contain the following provisions, as applicable: (i) a requirement that such Sublicensee submit applicable Net Sales or other reports consistent with those required hereunder; (ii) audit requirements similar to those set forth in this Agreement; and (iii) a requirement that such Sublicensee comply with the confidentiality provisions of Article 6 with respect to Ambit’s Confidential Information.

• Development Milestone Payments In partial consideration for the rights and licenses granted to Coya hereunder, within ten days after the first achievement of each milestone event in a given Indication set forth in this Section 5.2 (Development Milestone Payments) with respect to a Product (each, a “Development Milestone Event”) by or on behalf of Coya or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees, Coya shall provide ARScience Bio written notice to ARScience Bio identifying the Development Milestone Event achieved. Upon receipt of any such notice of first achievement of a Development Milestone Event by Coya or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, ARScience Bio will promptly invoice Coya for the applicable Development Milestone Event and Coya will make a milestone payment to ARScience Bio in the amount set forth in this Section 5.2 (Development Milestone Payments) corresponding to such Development Milestone Event (each, a “Development Milestone Payment”) within 45 days of receipt of such invoice. On an Indication-by-Indication basis, each Development Milestone Payment shall be payable only upon the first achievement of the corresponding Development Milestone Event by a Product, in any given Indication for which the Development Milestone Events have not been previously achieved (each such Indication, a “New Indication”). No amounts shall be due for subsequent or repeated achievements of such Development Milestone Event with respect to the same or different Mono Product or Combination Product, as applicable, in such Indication. Accordingly and for clarity, the Development Milestone Payment shall be paid only once, when first achieved by Coya, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee, but no payment shall be due if the same milestone is subsequently achieved by one of Coya, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee. For clarity, the amounts owed in Column (a) below shall be due for the first Combination Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication and the amounts owned in Column (c) below shall be due for the first Mono Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication. Any Combination Product or Mono Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication after the first achievement of the Development Milestone Events as described in the foregoing sentence will cause the amounts in Column (b) with respect to a Combination Product and Column (d) with respect to a Mono Product to be due and payable by Coya upon each such occurrence. If the first Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in any Indication is a Combination Product, the amounts in Column (a) below shall be due and payable by Coya. If the next Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in a New Indication is a Mono Product, the amounts in Column (c) below would be due and payable by Coya; provided, that if such next Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in a New Indication is a Combination Product, the amounts in Column (b) would be due and payable by Coya. By way of example, if a Combination Product achieves IND Acceptance in ALS, and is the first Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event under this Agreement, [***] will be due and payable by Coya. If subsequently a Mono Product achieves IND Acceptance in ALS, no Development Milestone Payments will be due and payable by Coya under this Agreement. However, if subsequently any Combination Product achieves IND Acceptance in Alzheimer’s disease, [***] would be due and payable by Coya.

• License Rights The rights granted herein in favor of each Service Recipient are in the nature of a license and shall not create any leasehold or other estate or possessory rights in Shared Real Property, and if the license granted under this Article III expires or is terminated, the Service Recipient shall vacate the Shared Real Property, and any occupancy or activity of the Service Recipient thereafter in the Shared Real Property shall be considered a trespass.

The Copromotion Territory Commercialization Plan shall be updated by the MSC at least once each calendar year such that it addresses no less than the three (3) upcoming years. Not later than thirty (30) days after the filing of the first application for Regulatory Approval of a Product in the Copromotion Territory and thereafter on or before September 30 of each calendar year, the MSC shall prepare an annual commercialization plan and budget (the "Annual Commercialization Plan and Budget"), which plan is based on the then current Copromotion Territory Commercialization Plan and includes a comprehensive market development, marketing, sales, supply and distribution strategy, including an overall budget for anticipated marketing, promotion and sales efforts in the upcoming calendar year (the first such Annual Development Plan and Budget shall cover the remainder of the calendar year in which such Product is anticipated to be approved plus the first full calendar year thereafter). The Annual Commercialization Plan and Budget will specify which Target Markets and distribution channels each Party shall devote its respective Promotion efforts towards, the personnel and other resources to be devoted by each Party to such efforts, the number and positioning of Details to be performed by each Party, as well as market and sales forecasts and related operating expenses, for the Product in each country of the Copromotion Territory, and budgets for projected Pre-Marketing Expenses, Sales and Marketing Expenses and Post-Approval Research and Regulatory Expenses. In preparing and updating the Copromotion Territory Commercialization Plan and each Annual Commercialization Plan and Budget, the MSC will take into consideration factors such as market conditions, regulatory issues and competition.
