(w) |
if the Subscriber is acting as agent or trustee (including, for greater certainty, a portfolio manager or comparable adviser) for a principal, the Subscriber is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement and all other necessary documents in connection with such subscription on behalf of such principal, and this Subscription Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by or on behalf of, and, when accepted by the Company, will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof (subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws limiting the enforceability of creditors’ rights and subject to the qualification that equitable remedies may only be granted in the discretion of a court of competent jurisdiction) against, such principal; | |

The Subscriber shall promptly notify the Company if the Subscriber discovers that any of the foregoing representations ceases to be true; | |

the entering into of this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in a violation of: (i) any of the terms and provisions of any law applicable to the Subscriber, or (ii) any of the Subscriber’s constating documents, if applicable, or (iii) any agreement to which the Subscriber is a party or by which the Subscriber is bound, except in the case of clauses (i) and (iii) above, for such violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Subscriber to perform its obligations hereunder; | |

The Company shall, within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such notice, make public disclosure of such material, nonpublic information. To the extent that the Company delivers any material, non-public information to the Subscriber without its prior written consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Subscriber shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agents with respect to, or a duty to the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agents not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information.

Without the prior written consent of the Subscriber, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall disclose the name of the Subscriber in any filing, announcement, release or otherwise. | |
5.6 |
Conduct of Business. The business of the Company and its subsidiaries shall not be conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental entity, except where such violations would not result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect.

5.7 |

5.8 |
Public Information. At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date and ending at such time that all of the Shares, if a registration statement is not available for the resale of all of the Shares, may be sold without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act and without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1), if the Company shall (i) fail for any reason to satisfy the requirements of Rule 144(c)(1), including, without limitation, the failure to satisfy the current public information requirements under Rule 144(c) or (ii) if the Company has ever been an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1)(i) or becomes such an issuer in the future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (each, a “Public Information Failure”) then, as partial relief for the damages to any holder of Shares by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Shares (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity), the Company shall pay to each such holder an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the Aggregate Purchase Price of such holder’s Shares on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (i) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (ii) such time that such Public Information Failure no longer prevents a holder of Securities from selling such Securities pursuant to Rule 144 without any restrictions or limitations. The payments to which a holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 5.8 are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (I) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (II) the third Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured.

The Company shall enter into a registration rights agreement with the Subscriber with respect to the resale of the Securities in the U.S., which shall include the foregoing and other customary terms and conditions, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Subscriber and the Company by no later than the date that is thirty (30) days following the Closing Date. |

9.1 |
In consideration of the Subscriber’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and acquiring the Shares thereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Subscriber and each other holder of the Shares and all of their shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Shares, or the status of the Subscriber or holder of the Shares as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. |
22
9.2 |
Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 9, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Indemnitee to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnitee, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnitee and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. Legal counsel referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be selected by the Subscriber. The Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Indemnified Liabilities by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnitee that relates to such action or Indemnified Liabilities. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnitee fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld conditioned or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such Indemnified Liabilities or litigation, (ii) requires any admission of wrongdoing by such Indemnitee, or (iii) obligates or requires an Indemnitee to take, or refrain from taking, any action. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section 9 except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. | |
9.3 |
The indemnification required by this Section 9 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Liabilities are incurred. | |
9.4 |
The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (x) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnitee against the indemnifying party or others, and (y) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law. | |
9.5 |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Indemnitee should be entitled to recover any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent that Indemnified Liabilities are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgement that has become non-appealable to have resulted solely from the Indemnified Party’s material breach of this Subscription Agreement, or the gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or fraud of such Indemnified Party. |
23
10. General
10.1 |
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York.

EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. | |
10.2 |

AND TO: | The registrar and transfer agent for the securities of Trillium Therapeutics Inc. |
The undersigned (A) acknowledges that the sale of the securities of Trillium Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company”) to which this declaration relates is being made in reliance on Rule 904 of Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) and (B) certifies that (1) the undersigned is not an “affiliate” of the Company as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the U.S. Securities Act, a “distributor” or an affiliate of “distributor”, (2) the offer of such securities was made in an “offshore transaction”, (3) neither the seller nor any affiliate of the seller nor any person acting on their behalf has engaged or will engage in any “directed selling efforts” in the United States in connection with the offer and sale of such securities, (4) the sale is bona fide and not for the purpose of “washing-off” the resale restrictions imposed because the securities are “restricted securities” as that term is described in Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act, and (5) the contemplated sale is not a transaction, or part of a series of transactions, which, although in technical compliance with Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, is part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the U.S. Securities Act. Unless otherwise specified, terms set forth above in quotation marks have the meanings given to them by Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.
The undersigned in making this Declaration acknowledges that the Company is relying on the contents hereof and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company for any and all liability, losses, claims and demands in any way related to the subject matter of this Declaration.
