Conduct of Research Program Each Party:
Development Program A. Development Activities to be Undertaken (Please break activities into subunits with the date of completion of major milestones)
Research Plan The Parties recognize that the Research Plan describes the collaborative research and development activities they will undertake and that interim research goals set forth in the Research Plan are good faith guidelines. Should events occur that require modification of these goals, then by mutual agreement the Parties can modify them through an amendment, according to Paragraph 13.6.
Research Term The Research Program will be carried out during the two (2) year period following the Effective Date, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 13 (such period, as may be extended pursuant to this Section 3.2, being the “Research Term”).

In order to exercise its option to extend the Research Term, BMS must provide Ambrx a written notice exercising BMS’ option to extend the Research Term at least ninety (90) days prior to the scheduled expiration of the Research Term (i.e., the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date). If BMS does not provide such written notice, the Research Term will end when scheduled (i.e., on the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date). For each extension of the Research Term, subject to Section 3.4, the JRC will prepare an update to the Research Plan which will include an updated Budget for the BMS-funded Ambrx FTEs to perform the work required under such Research Plan and the projected Third Party Costs.
