5.4 Sublicense Income Reports. Company shall, along with delivering payment as set forth in Section 4.7, report to Hospital within [**] days of receipt the amount of all Sublicense Income received by Company, and Company’s calculation of the amount due and paid to Hospital from such income, including an itemized listing of the source of income comprising such consideration, and the name and address of each entity making such payments in substantially the format outlined in Appendix D.

5.5 Audit Rights. Company shall maintain, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and Sublicensees to maintain, complete and accurate records relating to the rights and obligations under Agreement and any amounts payable to Hospital in relation to Agreement, which records shall contain sufficient information to permit Hospital and its representatives to confirm the accuracy of any payments and reports delivered to Hospital and compliance in all other respects with Agreement. Company shall retain and make available, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and Sublicensees to retain and make available, such records for at least [**] years following the end of the calendar year to which they pertain, to an independent, certified public accountant chosen by Hospital and reasonably acceptable to Company upon at least [**] days’ advance written notice, for inspection during normal business hours, to verify any reports and payments made and/or compliance in other respects under Agreement. Such accountant shall not disclose to Hospital any information other than information relating to the accuracy of reports and payments delivered under Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Hospital may not cause an audit of any Sublicensee unless Company has not conducted previously an audit of the relevant Reporting Period and fails or refuses to conduct such audit upon the reasonable written request of Hospital. If Company has conducted previously an audit of the relevant Reporting Period, Company shall make the results of such audit available to the independent, certified public accountant chosen by Hospital and reasonably acceptable to Company. If any audit conducted pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.5 shows an underreporting or underpayment of [**] percent ([**]%) or more in any payment due to Hospital hereunder, Company shall bear the full cost of such audit and shall remit any amounts due to Hospital (including interest due in accordance with Section 4.8) within [**] days of receiving notice thereof from Hospital. Hospital may exercise its rights under this Section 5.5 only [**] and only [**].

6. PATENT PROSECUTION AND MAINTENANCE

6.1 Prosecution. Hospital shall be responsible for the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of all patent applications and patents included in Patent Rights. Company will have sufficient rights to influence the prosecution of Patent Rights within the scope of Exclusive License Field and Non-Exclusive Field. With respect to national stage entry of a patent application, Company shall provide Hospital with a list of countries in which Company would like Hospital to file patent applications. Hospital shall file, prosecute and maintain such patent applications and resulting patents in all jurisdictions requested by Company. If with respect to any patent application, Hospital wishes to file patent applications in additional countries not requested by Company, Hospital shall notify Company, and Company and Hospital shall discuss the commercial value of filing such patent applications in such additional countries. If Company does not agree in writing to the filing of such patent applications in such additional countries within [**] days from said notification, (i) all costs incurred by Hospital in connection with the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of such patent applications in such additional countries shall be excluded from Patent Costs for which Company shall pay or reimburse hereunder, (ii) Hospital may file such patent applications in such additional countries at its own expense, and (iii) such patent applications filed by Hospital in such countries shall not be considered in Patent Rights. Company shall reimburse Hospital for Patent Costs incurred by Hospital relating thereto in accordance with Section 4.2.

6.2 Copies of Documents. With respect to any Patent Right licensed hereunder, Hospital shall instruct the patent counsel prosecuting such Patent Right to (i) copy Company on patent prosecution documents that are received from or filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and foreign equivalent, as applicable; (ii) if requested by Company, provide Company with copies of draft applications and other submissions to any patent office prior to filing; and (iii) give due consideration to the comments and requests of Company or its patent counsel, which Hospital and its patent counsel will not unreasonably refuse to incorporate or address.

6.3 Company’s Election Not to Proceed. Company may elect to surrender any patent or patent application in Patent Rights in any country upon [**] days advance written notice to Hospital. Such notice shall relieve Company from the obligation to pay for future Patent Costs but shall not relieve Company from responsibility to pay Patent Costs incurred prior to the expiration of the [**] day notice period. Such U.S. or foreign patent application or patent shall thereupon cease to be a Patent Right hereunder, Company shall have no further rights therein and Hospital shall be free to license its rights to that particular U.S. or foreign patent application or patent to any other party on any terms.

6.4 Patent Term Extensions. Company shall have the exclusive right to seek patent term extensions or supplemental patent protection, including supplementary protection certificates, in any country in the License Territory in relation to Products and Processes in the Exclusive License Field at Company’s expense. Hospital shall cooperate with Company in connection with all such activities. Hospital will promptly provide any instruments, agreements or other documents reasonably requested by Company in connection with any patent term extension or supplemental patent protection sought by Company that relates to a Patent Right.

6.5 Confidentiality of Prosecution and Maintenance Information. Company agrees to treat all information related to prosecution and maintenance of Patent Rights as Confidential Information (as defined in Appendix E) in accordance with the provisions of Appendix E. In addition, Company and Hospital acknowledge and agree that, with regard to filing, prosecution and maintenance of Patent Rights, the interests of the Parties as licensor and licensee are aligned and are legal in nature. The Parties agree and acknowledge that they have not waived, and nothing in Agreement constitutes a waiver of, any legal privilege concerning Patent Rights or a Party’s Confidential Information, including privilege under the common interest doctrine and similar or related doctrines.

7. THIRD PARTY INFRINGEMENT AND LEGAL ACTIONS

7.1 Hospital Right to Prosecute. Hospital will protect its Patent Rights from infringement and prosecute accused infringers when, in its sole judgment, such action may be reasonably necessary, proper and justified except Company will have the sole right to enforce Patent Rights against accused infringers within the scope of Exclusive License Field. Company will have the second right to prosecute accused infringers of Patent Rights within the scope of Non-Exclusive License Field. If Company shall have supplied Hospital with written evidence demonstrating to Hospital’s reasonable satisfaction prima facie infringement of a claim of a Patent Right in the Non-Exclusive License Field in the License Territory by a third party which poses a material threat to Company’s rights under Agreement, Company may by notice request Hospital to take steps to protect such Patent Right. Hospital shall notify Company within [**] months of the receipt of such notice whether Hospital intends to prosecute the alleged infringement. If Hospital notifies Company that it intends to so prosecute, Hospital shall, within [**] months of its notice to Company either (i) cause such infringement to terminate, or (ii) initiate legal proceedings against the infringer. Hospital shall consult with Company prior to initiating any legal proceedings against an alleged infringer in the Non-Exclusive License Field and shall give due consideration to Company’s reasons, if any, for not initiating a legal proceeding or otherwise making or prosecuting a claim of infringement, which reasons will not be unreasonably disregarded, prior to initiating such legal proceedings.

7.2 Company Right to Prosecute. In accord with Section 7.1, Company may, upon notice to Hospital, initiate legal proceedings against an accused infringer at Company’s expense with respect to a claim of a Patent Right in the License Territory. Before commencing such action, Company and, as applicable, any Affiliate, shall consult with Hospital, concerning, among other things, Company’s standing to bring suit, the advisability of bringing suit, the selection of counsel and the jurisdiction for such action (provided Company must have Hospital’s prior written consent with respect to selection of jurisdiction for any action in which Hospital may be joined as a party-plaintiff) and shall use reasonable efforts to accommodate the views of Hospital regarding the proposed action, including without limitation with respect to potential effects on the public interest. Company shall be responsible for all costs, expenses and liabilities in connection with any such action and shall indemnify and hold Hospital harmless therefrom, regardless of whether Hospital is a party-plaintiff, except for the expense of any independent counsel retained by Hospital in accordance with Section 7.5 below.

7.3 Hospital Joined as Party-Plaintiff. If Company elects to commence an action as described in Section 7.2 above, Hospital shall have, in its sole discretion, the option to join such action as a party-plaintiff. If Hospital is required by law to join such action as a party-plaintiff, Hospital may either, in its sole discretion, permit itself to be joined as a party-plaintiff at the sole expense of Company, or assign to Company all of Hospital’s right, title and interest in and to the Patent Right which is the subject of such action (subject to all of Hospital’s obligations to the government under law and any other rights that others may have in such Patent Right). If Hospital makes such an assignment, such action by Company shall thereafter be brought or continued without Hospital as a party (unless Hospital remains a necessary party as found by the relevant court or tribunal); provided, however, that Hospital and Company shall enter into a separate agreement providing Hospital with continuing rights of prosecution and maintenance of and requiring Company to continue to meet all of its obligations with respect to prosecution and maintenance of Patent Rights as if the assigned Patent Right were still licensed to Company hereunder.

7.4 Notice of Actions; Settlement. Company shall promptly inform Hospital of any action or suit relating to Patent Rights and shall not enter into any settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any action relating to Patent Rights, including but not limited to appeals, that admits liability, wrongdoing, or fault by Hospital without the prior written consent of Hospital, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

7.5 Cooperation. Each Party agrees to cooperate reasonably in any action under Section 7 which is controlled by the other Party, provided that the controlling party reimburses the cooperating party for any reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the cooperating party in connection with providing such assistance, except for the expense of any independent counsel retained by the cooperating party in accordance with this Section 7.5. Such controlling party shall keep the cooperating party informed of the progress of such proceedings and shall make its counsel available to the cooperating party. The cooperating party shall also be entitled to independent counsel in such proceedings but at its own expense, said expense to be offset against any damages received by the Party bringing suit in accordance with Section 7.6 only if representation of the cooperating Party by counsel to the Party bringing suit would be inappropriate because of conflict of interests.

7.6 Recovery. Any award paid by third parties as the result of such proceedings (whether by way of settlement or otherwise) shall first be applied to reimbursement of any legal fees and expenses incurred by the Party bringing such proceeding and by the other Party if representation of such other Party by counsel to the Party bringing such proceeding would be inappropriate because of conflict of interests and then the remainder shall be divided between the Parties as follows:

(a) for any proceedings related to the Exclusive License Field:

(i) Company shall receive an amount equal to its lost profits or a reasonable royalty on the infringing sales, or whichever measure of damages the court shall have applied; and

(ii) Hospital shall receive an amount equal to the royalties and other amounts that Company would have paid to Hospital if Company had Sold the infringing Products and Services rather than the infringer, provided that the amounts payable under this clause (ii) shall in no event exceed the amounts payable under clause (i) above; and

(iii) the balance, if any, remaining after Company and Hospital have been compensated under Section 7.6(a)(i) and (ii) that is attributable to the infringement of Patent Rights shall be shared by the Parties as follows: [**] percent ([**]%) to Company and [**] percent ([**]%) to Hospital if Company brought and prosecuted such proceedings and [**] percent ([**]%) to Company and [**] percent ([**]%) to Hospital if Hospital brought and prosecuted such proceedings.

(b) for any proceedings related to the Non-Exclusive License Field:

(i) Company shall receive an amount equal to its lost profits or a reasonable royalty on the infringing sales, or whichever measure of damages the court shall have applied; and

(iii) the balance, if any, remaining after Company and Hospital have been compensated under Section 7.6(b)(i) and (ii) that is attributable to the infringement of Patent Rights shall be shared by the Parties as follows: [**] percent ([**]%) to Company and [**] percent ([**]%) to Hospital if Hospital brought and prosecuted such proceedings and [**] percent ([**]%) to Company and [**] percent ([**]%) to Hospital if Company brought and prosecuted such proceedings.

7.7 Patent Validity Challenge by a Third Party. Each Party shall promptly notify the other in the event it receives notice of any legal or administrative action by any third party against a Patent Right, including any oppositions, interference, derivation, revocation, reexamination, inter partes review, post-grant review, nullity action, compulsory license proceeding, or declaratory judgment action. Except as provided in the following sentence, opposition, interference and derivation proceedings shall be addressed as provided in Section 6.1. Company shall have the first right to defend in all revocation, reexamination, inter partes review, post-grant review, nullity action, compulsory licensing proceeding, or declaratory judgment actions as provided in Section 7.2. If Company elects not to participate in such action, it shall promptly notify Hospital in writing of its decision not to proceed and Hospital may elect to take over the defense at its own expense. Hospital shall give due consideration to Company’s reasons for not participating

or initiating in such action, which reasons will not be unreasonably disregarded, prior to initiating the defense of such action.

7.8 Third Party Patent Oppositions and Other Proceedings. If Hospital desires to bring an opposition, action for declaratory judgment, nullity action, interference, inter partes review, post-grant review or other action to challenge the validity, title, enforceability of a patent owned or controlled by a third party that covers or may cover the composition, manufacture, use or commercial sale of any Product or Process in the Exclusive License Field, Hospital shall first consult with Company prior to initiating such action. The Parties shall discuss in good faith the rationale for, and the proposed actions to be taken, with respect to such opposition or other action. Company shall have the first right, but not the obligation to take action. Hospital shall give due consideration to Company’s reasons for not initiating such action, which will not be unreasonably disregarded, prior to initiating such action.

8. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

8.1 Indemnification.

(a) Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Hospital and its Affiliates and their respective trustees, directors, officers, medical and professional staff, employees, and agents and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (the “Indemnitees”), against any liability, damage, loss or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses of litigation) incurred by or imposed upon the Indemnitees or any one of them in connection with any claims, suits, actions, demands or judgments arising out of any theory of product liability (including, but not limited to, actions in the form of contract, tort, warranty, or strict liability) concerning any product, process or service made, used, or sold or performed pursuant to any right or license granted under Agreement, except to the extent any such claim, suit, action, demand or judgment results directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnitee.

(b) Hospital agrees to provide Company with prompt written notice of any Claim for which indemnification is sought under Agreement. Company agrees, at its own expense, to provide attorneys reasonably acceptable to Hospital to defend against any actions brought or filed against any Indemnitee with respect to the subject of indemnity contained herein, whether or not such actions are rightfully brought; provided, however, that any Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, at the expense of Company, if representation of such Indemnitee by counsel retained by Company would be inappropriate because of conflict of interests of such Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel. Company agrees to keep Hospital informed of the progress in the defense and disposition of such claim and to consult with Hospital prior to any proposed settlement. Hospital may not settle any claim, suit, action, demand or judgment for which it is claiming, or may in the future may make a claim for indemnification, hereunder without the prior written consent of Company.

8.2 Insurance.

(a) Beginning at such time as any such product, process or service is being commercially distributed, sold, leased or otherwise transferred, or performed or used (other than for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approvals), by Company, an Affiliate or Sublicensee, Company shall, at its sole cost and expense, procure and maintain commercial general liability insurance in amounts not less than $[**] per incident and $[**] annual aggregate and naming the Indemnitees as additional insureds. Such commercial general liability insurance shall provide (i) product liability coverage and (ii) broad form contractual liability coverage for Company’s indemnification under Section 8.1 of Agreement. If Company elects to self-insure all or part of the limits described above (including deductibles or retentions which are in excess of $[**] annual aggregate) such self-insurance program must be acceptable to Hospital and the Risk Management Foundation. The minimum amounts of insurance coverage required under this Section 8.2 shall not be construed to create a limit of Company’s liability with respect to its indemnification under Section 8.1 of Agreement.

(b) Company shall provide Hospital with written evidence of such insurance upon request of Hospital. Company shall provide Hospital with written notice at least [**] days prior to the cancellation, non-renewal or material change in such insurance; if Company does not obtain replacement insurance providing comparable coverage prior to the expiration of such [**] day period, Hospital shall have the right to terminate Agreement effective at the end of such [**] day period without notice or any additional waiting periods.

(c) Company shall maintain such commercial general liability insurance beyond the expiration or termination of Agreement during (i) the period that any such product, process, or service is being commercially distributed, sold, leased or otherwise transferred, or performed or used (other than for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approvals), by Company or by a licensee, affiliate or agent of Company and (ii) a reasonable period after the period referred to in (c) (i) above which in no event shall be less than [**] years.

(d) This Section 8.2 shall survive expiration or termination of Agreement.

9. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

9.2 No Warranties. HOSPITAL MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, CONCERNING PATENT RIGHTS AND THE

RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, VALIDITY OF PATENT RIGHTS CLAIMS, WHETHER ISSUED OR PENDING, AND THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE, AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS THE SAME. SPECIFICALLY, AND NOT TO LIMIT THE FOREGOING, HOSPITAL MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION (i) REGARDING THE VALIDITY OR SCOPE OF ANY OF THE CLAIM(S), WHETHER ISSUED OR PENDING, OF ANY OF PATENT RIGHTS, AND (ii) THAT THE EXPLOITATION OF PATENT RIGHTS OR ANY PRODUCT WILL NOT INFRINGE ANY PATENTS OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF HOSPITAL OR OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

9.3 Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL HOSPITAL OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE TRUSTEES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, MEDICAL OR PROFESSIONAL STAFF, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS BE LIABLE TO LICENSEE OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, SUBLICENSEES OR DISTRIBUTORS FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF AGREEMENT OR THE LICENSE OR RIGHTS GRANTED HEREUNDER, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ECONOMIC DAMAGES OR INJURY TO PROPERTY OR LOST PROFITS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER HOSPITAL SHALL BE ADVISED, SHALL HAVE OTHER REASON TO KNOW, OR IN FACT SHALL KNOW OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE FOREGOING.

10. TERM AND TERMINATION

10.1 Term. The term of Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until the date on which there are no more pending or issued and unexpired Claims within Patent Rights (“Expiration Date”), unless Agreement is terminated earlier in accordance with any of the other provisions of Section 10. Only upon Expiration Date and all payments from Company to Hospital have been made as required by Agreement, Company shall have a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid up, freely sublicensable license under the rights and licenses granted to Company under Section 2.1; provided, however, that the obligation of Company to pay royalties on Net Sales of Products and Processes for which the royalty term has not expired in accordance with Section 4.5(e) at Expiration Date shall continue uninterrupted until such expiration of Agreement in accordance with Section 4.5(e).

10.2 Termination for Failure to Pay. If Company fails to make any payment due hereunder, Hospital shall have the right to terminate Agreement upon [**] business days written notice, unless Company makes such payments within said [**] day notice period. If payments are not made, Hospital may immediately terminate Agreement at the end of said [**] day period.

10.3 Termination for Insurance and Insolvency.

(a) Insurance. Hospital shall have the right to terminate Agreement in accordance with Section 8.2(b) if Company fails to maintain the insurance required by Section 8.2.

10.4 Termination for Non-Financial Default. If Company, any of its Affiliates or any Sublicensee shall default in the performance of any of its other material obligations under Agreement not otherwise covered by the provisions of Section 10.2 and 10.3, and if such default has not been cured within [**] days after notice by Hospital in writing of such default, Hospital may immediately terminate Agreement, and/or any license granted hereunder with respect to the country or countries in which such default has occurred, at the end of said [**] day cure period.

10.5 Challenging Validity. During the term of Agreement, Company shall not challenge, and shall restrict Company Affiliates and Sublicensees from challenging, the validity of Patent Rights and in the event of any breach of this provision Hospital shall have the right to terminate Agreement and any license granted hereunder immediately. In addition, if Patent Rights are upheld Company shall reimburse Hospital for its legal costs and expenses incurred in defending any such challenge. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if a Sublicensee is the party so challenging the validity of Patent Rights, Hospital may immediately terminate the rights hereunder only as and to the extent sublicensed to such Sublicensee. For clarity, in the case of any such termination of rights hereunder as and to the extent sublicensed to a Sublicensee, such termination shall not affect the rights hereunder held by Company or any other sublicense, and Agreement and such other sublicenses shall remain in full force and effect.

10.6 Termination by Company. Company shall have the right to terminate Agreement by giving ninety (90) days advance written notice to Hospital and upon such termination shall immediately cease all use and Sales of Products and Processes, subject to Section 10.10.

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 10 to the contrary, if a breach by Company under Section 10.2, 10.3 or 10.4 arises as a result of a breach by a Sublicensee of the terms of a sublicense and Company is using commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach or terminate such sublicense, Hospital may not terminate Agreement during the pendency of such efforts or thereafter if such breach by such Sublicensee is cured or the relevant sublicense is terminated. If Company has used commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach or terminate such sublicense but has not been able to cure such breach or terminate such sublicense within [**] days after receiving the first written notice of termination from Hospital relating to such breach hereunder, Hospital may not terminate Agreement but may terminate the rights hereunder as and to the extent sublicensed to such Sublicensee. For clarity, any such termination shall not affect the rights hereunder held

by Company or any other Sublicense, and Agreement and such other sublicenses shall remain in full force and effect.

10.8 Effect of Termination on Sublicenses. In the event of termination of Agreement, any sublicense granted by Company under Agreement shall remain in effect and is hereby assigned to Hospital, provided that (i) Company or the Sublicensee provides Hospital with an unredacted copy of such agreement within [**] days after termination of Agreement, unless an unredacted copy previously has been provided to Hospital; (ii) the Sublicensee agrees in writing to an assignment of such sublicense to Hospital and to the payment of all consideration to Hospital that otherwise would have been payable in connection with such sublicense to Hospital by Company under Agreement; (iii) any obligations in such sublicense that are greater than or inconsistent with the obligations of Hospital under Agreement or the nature of Hospital as an academic and non-profit entity shall be reduced in scope to match those in Agreement, if practicable, or terminated if such reduction in scope is not practicable; and (iv) the Sublicensee agrees in writing that all obligations arising prior to such assignment remain the responsibility of Company and that Hospital is released from any and all liability relating to such obligations; otherwise said sublicense will be terminated.

10.9 Effects of Termination of Agreement. Upon termination of Agreement or any of the licenses hereunder for any reason, final reports in accordance with Section 5 shall be submitted to Hospital and all royalties and other payments, including without limitation any unreimbursed Patent Costs, accrued or due to Hospital as of the termination date shall become immediately payable. Company shall cease, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to cease under any sublicense granted by Company, all Sales and uses of Products and Processes upon such termination, subject to Sections 10.8 and 10.10. The termination or expiration of Agreement or any license granted hereunder shall not relieve Company, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees of obligations arising before such termination or expiration.

10.10 Inventory. Upon early termination of Agreement other than for Company default under Section 10.2 or 10.3, Company, Company Affiliates and Company Sublicensees may complete and sell any work-in-progress and inventory of Products that exist as of the effective date of termination provided that (i) Company pays Hospital the applicable running royalty or other amounts due on such Net Sales in accordance with the terms and conditions of Agreement, and (ii) Company, Company Affiliates and Sublicensees shall complete and sell all work-in-progress and inventory of Products within [**] months after the effective date of termination.

Agreement may be amended and any of its terms or conditions may be waived only by a written instrument executed by an authorized signatory of the Parties or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance. The failure of either Party at any time or times to require performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect its rights at a later time to enforce the same.

12.4 Binding Effect. Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

12.5 Assignment.

Failure of an assignee to agree to be bound by the terms hereof or failure of Company to notify Hospital and provide copies of assignment documentation shall be grounds for termination of Agreement for default.

12.6 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be responsible for delays resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of such Party, including without limitation fire, explosion, flood, war, sabotage, strike or riot, provided that the nonperforming Party uses commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of nonperformance and continues performance under Agreement with reasonable dispatch whenever such causes are removed.

12.7 Use of Name. Neither Party shall use the name of the other Party or of any trustee, director, officer, staff member, employee, student or agent of the other Party or any adaptation thereof in any advertising, promotional or sales literature, publicity or in any document employed to obtain funds or financing without the prior written approval of the Party or individual whose name is to be used.

CONFIDENTIALITY TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. Definition of Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” shall mean any information, including but not limited to data, techniques, protocols or results, or business, financial, commercial or technical information, disclosed by one Party (each a “Discloser” as applicable) to the other Party (each a “Recipient” as applicable) in connection with the terms of that certain Exclusive License Agreement dated August 29, 2014 (the “License Agreement”) and identified as confidential at the time of disclosure (the “Purpose”). Hospital’s Confidential Information shall also include all information disclosed by Hospital to Company in connection with Patent Rights. Capitalized terms used in this Appendix that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed in the License Agreement to which this Appendix is attached and made a part thereof.

2. Exclusions. “Confidential Information” under Agreement shall not include any information that (i) is or becomes publicly available through no wrongful act of Recipient; (ii) was known by Recipient prior to disclosure by Discloser, as evidenced by tangible records; (iii) becomes known to Recipient after disclosure from a third party having an apparent bona fide right to disclose it; (iv) is independently developed or discovered by Recipient without use of Discloser’s Confidential Information, as evidenced by tangible records; or (v) is disclosed to another party by Discloser without restriction on further disclosure. The obligations of confidentiality and non-use set forth in Agreement shall not apply with respect to any information that Recipient is required to disclose or produce pursuant to applicable law, court order or other valid legal process provided that Recipient promptly notifies Discloser prior to such required disclosure, discloses such information only to the extent so required and cooperates reasonably with Discloser’s efforts to contest or limit the scope of such disclosure.

3. Permitted Purpose. Recipient shall have the right to, and agrees that it will, use Discloser’s Confidential Information solely for the Purpose as described in the License Agreement, except as may be otherwise specified in a separate definitive written agreement negotiated and executed between the parties.

4. Restrictions. For the term of the License Agreement and a period of [**] years thereafter (and indefinitely with respect to any individually identifiable health information disclosed by Hospital to Company, if any), each Recipient agrees that: (i) it will not use such Confidential Information for any purpose other than as specified herein, including without limitation for its own benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity; and (ii) it will use reasonable efforts (but no less than the efforts used to protect its own confidential and/or proprietary information of a similar nature) not to disclose such Confidential Information to any other person or entity except as expressly permitted hereunder. Recipient may, however, disclose Discloser’s Confidential Information only on a need-to-know basis to its and its Affiliates employees, staff members and agents (“Receiving Individuals”) who are directly participating in the Purpose and who are informed of the confidential nature of such information, provided Recipient shall be responsible

for compliance by Receiving Individuals with the terms of Agreement and any breach thereof. Each party further agrees not to use the name of the other party or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective trustees, directors, officers, staff members, employees, students or agents in any advertising, promotional or sales literature, publicity or in any document employed to obtain funds or financing without the prior written approval of the party or individual whose name is to be used, in the case of Hospital such approval to be given by the Public Affairs Department. This Section 4 shall survive termination or expiration of Agreement.

5. Right to Disclose. Discloser represents that to the best of its knowledge it has the right to disclose to each Recipient all of Discloser’s Confidential Information that will be disclosed hereunder.

6. Ownership. All Confidential Information disclosed pursuant to Agreement, including without limitation all written and tangible forms thereof, shall be and remain the property of the Discloser. Upon termination of Agreement, if requested by Discloser, Recipient shall return or destroy at Discloser’s discretion all of Discloser’s Confidential Information, provided that Recipient shall be entitled to keep one copy of such Confidential Information in a secure location solely for the purpose of determining Recipient’s legal obligations hereunder.

7. No License. Nothing in Agreement shall be construed as granting or conferring, expressly or impliedly, any rights by license or otherwise, under any patent, copyright, or other intellectual property rights owned or controlled by Discloser relating to Confidential Information, except as specifically set forth in the License Agreement.

8. Remedies. Each party acknowledges that any breach of Agreement by it may cause irreparable harm to the other party and that each party is entitled to seek injunctive relief and any other remedy available at law or in equity.

9. General. These Confidentiality Terms and Conditions, along with the License Agreement, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any prior oral or written understandings between the parties relating to confidential treatment of information. Sections 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 9 of these Confidentiality Terms and Conditions shall survive any expiration or termination of the License Agreement.
