In consideration of the licenses and rights granted to Licensee hereunder, Iterum shall pay to Pfizer the amounts set forth below within [ * ] following the first occurrence of each event described below (each event, a “Development Milestone” and each payment, a “Development Milestone Payment”).


DEVELOPMENT MILESTONE	Payment for first Product that includes a Sulopenem Compound	Payment for first Product that includes a Sulopenem Prodrug Compound
(1)[ * ]	US$[*]	US$[*]
(2)[ * ]	US$[*]	US$[*]
(3)[ * ]	US$[*]	US$[*]

For the avoidance of doubt: (a) each Development Milestone Payment shall be payable only once upon achievement of the applicable Development Milestone by [ * ], regardless of the number of Products that achieve such Development Milestone, such that the total amount payable under this Section 5.3 will not exceed [ * ], and (b) satisfaction of a Development Milestone by a sublicensee or assignee of, or Third Party retained by, Iterum or its Affiliates shall be deemed to have been satisfied by Iterum for purposes of this Section 5.3.

5.4.1

General. Iterum, in its sole discretion, may defer the Development Milestone Payments for Development Milestone (2) and Development Milestone (3) under Section 5.3 (each event a “Regulatory Approval Milestone” and each payment a “Regulatory Approval Payment”) for up to [ * ] from the occurrence of the Regulatory Approval Milestone. Within [ * ] following the occurrence of a Regulatory Approval Milestone, Iterum shall have the right to provide Pfizer with written notice of (i) Iterum’s election to defer such Regulatory Approval Payment, (ii) the estimated date on which Iterum expects to make such Development Milestone Payment within such [ * ] period and (iii) the execution and delivery to Pfizer, within such [ * ] period, of a promissory note in favor of Pfizer in the form attached hereto as Schedule 5.4.1 in the principal amount of the Regulatory Milestone Payment being so deferred (the “Promissory Note”). Any Regulatory Approval Payment deferred under this Section 5.4.1 shall bear interest at an annual rate of eight percent (8%) on a daily compounded basis until paid in full. For avoidance of doubt, any failure to make such Regulatory Approval Payment that is deferred as set forth in this Section 5.4.1 by the end of the applicable [ * ] period shall be a material breach of this Agreement subject to Section 13.2.

5.4.2

Acceleration. Notwithstanding Section 5.4.1, if Iterum has elected to defer the payment of a Regulatory Approval Payment pursuant to Section 5.4.1, and if the first Change of Control of Iterum occurs during the two (2) year period described

in Section 5.4.1, Pfizer, may in its sole discretion and at its sole option, declare any Regulatory Approval Payments deferred by Iterum under Section 5.4.1 to be immediately due and payable, together with all interest thereon accruing under this Agreement. Upon written notice from Pfizer to Iterum of such declaration, such deferred Regulatory Approval Payments and all interest thereon accruing shall become due and payable within [ * ] after Iterum’s receipt of such notice, without other formalities of any kind.

For the avoidance of doubt, each Sales Milestone Payment shall be payable only once upon the first occurrence of the corresponding Sales Milestone by all Products [ * ] and by all Products [ * ], such that the total amount payable under this Section 5.5 will not exceed US$[ * ].

5.6

Royalty Payments. In consideration of the licenses and rights granted to Licensee hereunder, Iterum shall pay to Pfizer royalties in the amount of the marginal royalty rates (set forth below) on the aggregate Net Sales resulting from the sale of Products, on a Product-by-Product basis, in the Territory during each Calendar Year (collectively, “Royalties”).


NET SALES PER PRODUCT		Marginal royalty rate
(1) Net Sales up to and including [ * ] per Calendar Year		[ * ] %
(2) Net Sales above [ * ], up to and including [ * ] per Calendar Year		[ * ] %
(3) Net Sales above [ * ], up to and including [ * ] per Calendar Year		[ * ] %
(4) Net Sales above [ * ], up to and including [ * ] per Calendar Year		[ * ] %
(5) Net Sales above [ * ] per Calendar Year		[ * ] %

Each marginal royalty rate set forth in the table above shall apply only to that portion of the Net Sales of each Product in the Territory during a given Calendar Year that falls within the indicated range. Iterum shall pay to Pfizer the applicable Royalties within [ * ] following the end of each Calendar Quarter after the date of First Commercial Sale. Royalties will be payable on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis during each Calendar Quarter of the applicable Royalty Term for each Product. All Royalty payments shall be accompanied by a report that includes reasonably detailed information, on a country-by-country basis, regarding a total [ * ] calculation of Net Sales of Product (including all deductions) and all Royalties payable to Pfizer for the applicable Calendar Quarter (including any foreign exchange rates employed). Iterum acknowledges and agrees that royalty payments made under this Agreement in the absence of a Valid Claim covering a Product are in partial consideration for all other rights and licenses granted to Licensee under this Agreement.

5.7

Royalty Adjustment.

5.7.1

Royalty Floor. In no event shall net adjustments reduce the Royalties payable to Pfizer to less than [ * ] of such Net Sales for any Product.

5.7.2

Responsibility for Payments in Respect of Third Party Right. Subject to Section 5.7.1, in the event that Iterum reasonably determines that it is necessary or useful to obtain rights under a Patent Right held by one or more Third Parties in order to Develop, Manufacture, Commercialize or use any Product in any country, then Iterum may, in its sole discretion, negotiate and obtain a license under such Patent Right(s) (each such Third Party license referred to herein as a “Third Party License”). Iterum may credit [ * ] of the [ * ] in the relevant country paid under such Third Party Licenses on Net Sales in any country against the royalties payable under Section 5.6 on such Net Sales if, and only if, such Third Party License is Necessary. As used in this Section 5.7.2, “Necessary” means (a) [ * ], and (b) [ *].

For example, if Iterum is required to pay Pfizer [ * ] under this Agreement and Iterum is also required to pay [ * ] and [ * ]. If Iterum is subsequently required to obtain a second Third Party License and is required to pay [ * ].

5.7.3

Generic Entry. Subject to Section 5.7.1, any royalty payments owed with respect to Net Sales of a Product in a country pursuant to Section 5.6 shall be reduced by [ * ] beginning in any Calendar Quarter and for the remainder of the applicable Royalty Term, if at any time a Generic Product achieves more than a [ * ] market share by unit volume of combined unit sales of such Product and such Generic Product(s) in the corresponding Calendar Quarter in such country.

5.8

Transaction Completion Payment.

5.8.1

Iterum shall pay to Pfizer a one-time, non-refundable and non-creditable payment of [ * ] upon the earlier to occur of either of the following: (a) Iterum completes its first Change of Control prior to the IPO, the Return to Preferred Investors (based on Adjusted Payments actually received) is greater than or equal to [ * ], and the sum of all Adjusted Payments actually received equals or exceeds [ * ], or (b) Iterum actually receives, under a transaction to sublicense or divest to a Third Party any rights related to a Product (excluding to a CMO or CRO), a cumulative sum of all Sublicensing Income received, during the first [ * ] following the closing of such transaction, in an amount greater than [ * ] (such [ * ] payment in (a) or (b), the “Transaction Completion Payment”). For clarity, (i) should Iterum complete its IPO prior to the occurrence of the first Change of Control of Iterum, no Transaction Completion Payment would be owed upon completion of such Change of Control under clause (a) of this Section 5.8.1 and (ii) the Transaction Completion Payment shall be payable only once under this Section 5.8.1.

5.8.2

Such payment shall be accompanied by a report that includes (a) for a Change of Control transaction, a calculation of the Return to Preferred Investors, or (b) for a transaction to sublicense or divest to a Third Party, a calculation of all such Sublicensing Income actually received by Iterum.

5.8.3

For a Transaction Completion Payment due under clause (a) of Section 5.8.1, Iterum or its Affiliate shall make such Transaction Completion Payment within [ *] following (i) the closing of Iterum’s first Change of Control, if the Adjusted Payments actually received at such closing cause clause (a) of Section 5.8.1 to be satisfied, or (ii) the subsequent receipt of any Adjusted Payments that cause clause (a) of Section 5.8.1 to be satisfied, if not satisfied previously based on previously received Adjusted Payments, as applic0able.

5.8.4

For any Transaction Completion Payment due as a result of a sublicense or divestiture under clause (b) of Section 5.8.1, Iterum or its Affiliate shall make such Transaction Completion Payment within [ * ] following the receipt of any amount of Sublicensing Income where the cumulative sum of all Sublicensing Income received after the receipt of such amount exceeds [ * ].

5.9

IPO Participation.

5.9.1

Pfizer shall have the right to submit to the managing underwriter(s) in Parent’s (or, if applicable, an Affiliate of Parent (with all references to the definition of IPO being deemed to be the initial public offering of such Affiliate and with all references to “Parent” in Section 5.9 being deemed to reference such “Affiliate”)) initial public offering (“IPO”), at least [ * ] prior to the date of the final prospectus for the IPO, a non-binding indication of interest (the “Indication of Interest”) to participate in the IPO by purchasing that number of ordinary shares of Parent (“Ordinary Shares”) equal to the greater of (a) [ * ] or (b) [ * ]. If the Indication of Interest is delivered by Pfizer at least [ * ] prior to the date of the final prospectus for the IPO, Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (which must include, but is not limited to, [ * ]) to cause the managing underwriter(s) of the IPO to offer to Pfizer the right to purchase, subject to the same conditions as are applicable to the public in the IPO, the Pfizer IPO Shares at a price per share equal to the Public Offering Price. Pfizer may apportion such Pfizer IPO Shares in such proportion as it deems appropriate, among itself and its Affiliates.

5.9.2

Pfizer hereby acknowledges that the managing underwriter(s) of the IPO may determine in its or their sole discretion that it is not advisable to make available to Pfizer some or all of Pfizer IPO Shares, in which case the number of Pfizer IPO Shares may be reduced or no Pfizer IPO Shares may be designated. If the managing underwriter reduces, or does not make available to Pfizer, the Pfizer IPO Shares in the IPO, Parent shall notify Pfizer of its right to purchase in a concurrent private placement offering Ordinary Shares at the Public Offering Price (the “Private Placement”). The number of Ordinary Shares offered by Parent in such Private Placement shall equal the difference of (A) [ * ] minus (B) [ * ]. Pfizer may in its sole discretion exercise its right to purchase such Ordinary Shares in the Private Placement within [ * ] following delivery of notice by Parent containing the terms and conditions of such Private Placement purchase. The closing of the IPO shall be a condition to the closing of such Private Placement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent’s obligation to offer Pfizer the option to

participate in the Private Placement shall be subject to the determination by Parent, in good faith, after consultation with Parent’s legal counsel, that such offer or sale would not be in violation of Applicable Laws. In the event that Parent determines the offering as set forth above in this Section 5.9.2 to not be in compliance with Applicable Laws, the Parties will work in good faith to structure a sale of securities to Pfizer in a manner that is compliant with Applicable Laws to effect the intent of this Section 5.9.2.

5.9.3

Pfizer agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be required of all participants in the IPO or Private Placement or as may be deemed reasonably necessary by the managing underwriter(s) of the IPO or Parent, as applicable, including, without limitation, a “lock-up” agreement, provided, that all officers and directors of Parent and holders of at least one percent (1%) of Parent’s voting securities are bound by and have entered into similar agreements. The holders of all shares subject to such restriction agreements shall be pro rata released from any such lock-up period if any other locked-up party is released from such restriction.

5.9.4

Subject to Pfizer’s election to participate in the IPO in Section 5.9.1 or the Private Placement in Section 5.9.2, the rights and obligations described in this Section 5.9 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the earlier of (i) immediately following the closing of the IPO, (ii) a Change of Control of Iterum and (iii) termination of this Agreement.

5.10

Other Payments. Iterum shall pay to Pfizer any other amounts due under this Agreement within [ * ] following receipt of invoice.

5.11

Late Payments. Any amount required to be paid by a Party hereunder which is not paid on the date due shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, at six percent (6%) above the thirty (30) day U.S. Dollar LIBOR rate effective for the date such payment was due, as reported in the Wall Street Journal. Such interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days payment is delinquent.

5.12

Currency. Any payments under this Section 5 that are recorded in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar shall be converted into U.S. Dollars at the average of the daily foreign exchange rates published in the Wall Street Journal (or any other qualified source that is acceptable to both Parties) for the Calendar Quarter in which such payments or expenses occurred, or for periods less than a Calendar Quarter, the average of the daily rates published in the Wall Street Journal for such period.

5.13

Method of Payment. All payments from Iterum to Pfizer shall be made by wire transfer via immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars to credit the bank account set forth below or such other bank account as designated by Pfizer in writing to Iterum at least [ * ] before payment is due. Any payment which falls due on a date which is not a Business Day may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

5.14

Taxes.

5.14.1

General. It is understood and agreed between the Parties that any payments made under this Agreement are exclusive of any value added or similar tax (“VAT”), which shall be added thereon as applicable. In the event any payments made by Iterum to Pfizer pursuant to this Agreement become subject to withholding taxes under the laws or regulation of any jurisdiction, Iterum shall deduct and withhold the amount of such taxes for the account of Pfizer to the extent required by Applicable Law and such amounts payable to Pfizer shall be reduced by the amount of taxes deducted and withheld, which shall be treated as paid to Pfizer in accordance with this Agreement. To the extent that Iterum is required to deduct and withhold taxes on any payments under this Agreement, Iterum shall pay the amounts of such taxes to the proper governmental authority in a timely manner and promptly transmit to the payee an official tax certificate or other evidence of such withholding sufficient to enable Pfizer to claim such payments of taxes. Pfizer shall provide any tax forms to Iterum that may be reasonably necessary in order for Iterum not to withhold tax or to withhold tax at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty. Each Party shall provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by Applicable Law, of withholding taxes, VAT, or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such withholding tax or VAT.

5.14.2

Tax Actions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if an action, including but not limited to any assignment or sublicense of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or any failure to comply with Applicable Laws or filing or record retention requirements (a “Tax Action”) by a Party leads to the imposition of withholding tax liability or VAT on the other Party that would not have been imposed in the absence of a Tax Action or in an increase in such liability above the liability that would have been imposed in the absence of such Tax Action, then (i) the sum payable by the Party that caused the Tax Action (in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made) shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that the other Party receives a sum equal to the sum which it would have received had no Tax Action occurred and (ii) the sum payable by the Party that caused a Tax Action (in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made) shall be made to the other Party after deduction of the amount required to be so deducted or withheld, which deducted or withheld amount shall be remitted in accordance with Applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, a Party shall only be liable for increased payments pursuant to this Section 5.14.2 to the extent such Party engaged in a Tax Action that created or increased a withholding tax or VAT on the other Party.

5.14.3

Cooperation. The Parties agree to cooperate and produce on a timely basis any tax forms or reports, including an IRS Form W-8BEN, reasonably requested by the other Party in connection with any payment made by Iterum to Pfizer under this Agreement.

RECORDS; AUDIT RIGHTS.

6.1

Relevant Records. Iterum shall maintain accurate financial books and records pertaining to sale of the Product by Iterum, its Affiliates or sublicensees, including any and all calculations of the applicable fees (collectively, “Relevant Records”). Iterum shall maintain the Relevant Records for the longer of: (a) the period of time required by Applicable Law, or (b) [ * ] following expiration or termination of this Agreement.

6.2

Audit Request. Pfizer shall have the right during the term of this Agreement and for [ * ] thereafter to engage, at its own expense, an independent auditor reasonably acceptable to Iterum to examine the Relevant Records from time-to-time during the [ * ] period after the end of the Calendar Year to which such records pertain, but no more frequently than once every [ * ], as may be necessary to verify compliance of the payments made by Iterum with the terms of this Agreement.
