All remaining ADSs shall remain subject to the lockup for the full Term of this Agreement.

2.3.2 During the Term, NVS shall not sell more than [*]% of its holdings in BioLine during any rolling 6-month calendar period, based on the holdings existing at the beginning of such 6-month period.

2.3.5 For clarification, where ADSs are subject to a lock up restriction or a restriction on “sale” as stated in Subsections 2.3.1 through 2.3.4, then NVS shall not (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any ADSs or Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for ADSs or Ordinary Shares, (2) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the ADSs or Ordinary Shares or such other securities of the Company, or (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any ADSs or Ordinary Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares without the prior written consent of BioLine, in each case other than (a) transactions relating to ADSs acquired in open market transactions (not in violation of the Stand-Still Agreement) other than pursuant to this Agreement; or (b) transfers of ADSs to entities which are Affiliates of NVS.

2.4 Information Disclosure. BioLine will update NVS, as may be reasonable and appropriate in the circumstances in light of the Collaboration, with respect to the following material corporate developments or decisions of the Board of Directors of BioLine (aside from matters related to partnering or potential partnering with Third Parties, which BioLine will not be required to disclose to NVS): (a) ongoing financial condition of BioLine on a quarterly basis (such as general budget, cash and cash forecasts); (b) material financing activities; (c) material decisions regarding projects (such as closing projects and increasing investment significantly in projects); (d) in-licensing of projects to BioLine (other than through the Collaboration); and (e) major human resource issues. The foregoing updates will be provided to NVS on the condition that any material non-public information provided by BioLine to NVS hereunder will result in a “black-out period” (the scope of which will be defined by BioLine’s General Counsel in his or her sole discretion) during which period NVS will be restricted from trading in BioLine shares.

2.5 No Representation on Board. For clarity, NVS will not be entitled to appoint a director on, or observer to, BioLine’s board of directors.

ARTICLE 3

Joint Steering Committee

3.1 Joint Steering Committee.

3.1.1 Formation and Purpose. Within 30 days of the Effective Date, the Parties will establish a joint steering committee (the “Joint Steering Committee” or “JSC”) to oversee, implement and coordinate the Collaboration established pursuant to this Agreement. The JSC shall, inter alia, evaluate projects presented by BioLine and decide whether to proceed with further development thereof and on what terms, and shall generally be a forum for consultation and information exchange.

BioLineRx - Novartis Pharma AG Collaboration Agreement

3.1.2 Members. Each of BioLine and NVS shall appoint representatives to the JSC, each of whom will have sufficient seniority and expertise within the applicable party to make decisions arising within the scope of the JSC’s responsibilities.

(a) NVS Representatives. The initial NVS representatives shall be: [*].

(b) BioLine Representatives. The initial BioLine representatives shall be:[*].

(d) Attendance by Non-Members. Each Party may also invite non-members to participate in the discussions and meetings of the JSC on an ad hoc basis where appropriate (e.g., representatives from regulatory, IP, commercial, franchise/business units, as well as corporate executives), subject to such individuals being subject to reasonable and customary binders of confidentiality). For clarity, non-member shall have no voting authority at the JSC.

3.1.3 Chairperson. The JSC shall have a chairperson, who shall serve for a term of one year, and who shall be selected alternately, on an annual basis, by BioLine or NVS. The initial chairperson shall be selected by NVS. The role of the chairperson shall be to convene and preside at meetings of the JSC and to ensure the preparation of minutes, but the chairperson shall otherwise have no additional powers or rights beyond those held by the other JSC representatives.

3.1.4 Meetings. The JSC shall meet at least once every 2 months during the Term to evaluate and discuss new opportunities, review any Flagged Projects, and address the progress and implementation of the Collaboration, as well as various matters addressed herein as applicable. The Parties may mutually agree in writing to a different frequency for such meetings; provided that there should be a face-to-face in-person meeting at least three times per year at a location and time agreed by the Parties (the “In-person Meeting”). No later than 10 days prior to any scheduled meeting of the JSC, the chairperson of the JSC shall prepare and circulate an agenda for such meeting and, as soon as practicable, materials for the meeting; provided, however, that either Party may propose additional topics to be included on such agenda prior to such meeting. The JSC may meet in person, by video conference or by teleconference (except for the In-person Meetings which shall be in-person). Meetings of the JSC shall be effective only if at least one representative of each Party is present or participating in such meeting. The chairperson of the JSC will be responsible for preparing reasonably detailed written minutes of all JSC meetings that reflect, without limitation, material decisions made at such meetings. The JSC chairperson shall send draft meeting minutes to each member of the JSC for review within 15 days after each JSC meeting. The members of the JSC shall then have 15 days to provide comments. The JSC chairperson shall incorporate timely received comments and distribute revised minutes to all members of the JSC for their final review and approval by the later of 45 days after the relevant meeting or the next regularly scheduled meeting of the JSC.

BioLineRx - Novartis Pharma AG Collaboration Agreement

3.1.5 Decision-Making. Unless otherwise set forth in this Agreement or as may be mutually agreed by the Parties, the JSC will take action by unanimous consent, with each Party’s representatives’ (collectively) having a single vote on the JSC, irrespective of the number of representatives actually in attendance at a meeting (i.e., a total of two votes).

3.1.6 Joint Discussion Teams. Once a Project is brought into the Collaboration such that the JSC decides to pursue its further development in accordance with one of the mechanisms set out in this Agreement, the JSC will establish a Joint Discussion Team (“JDT”) with representatives from the Parties (who may, but need not, be members of the JSC) to provide ongoing practical input into and oversee the initial development of the applicable Project. There will be a JDT for each Project. The JDT will meet at least quarterly and in addition ad hoc on an “as needed” basis. The JDT will report regularly to the JSC. The JDT is intended to serve in an advisory capacity only, and will not have decision-making authority unless otherwise agreed in writing by the representatives of the Parties on the JSC.

3.1.7 Costs. The Parties agree that the costs incurred by each Party in connection with its travel to and participation in the JSC and the JDT shall be borne solely by such Party.

3.1.8 Discontinuation of JSC. The JSC shall continue to exist throughout the Term unless the Parties mutually agree to disband the JSC.

6.4 Payment of Option Fee. Within 60 days following (i) the Selected Project Selection Date, and (ii) receipt by NVS of an invoice in the form attached as Exhibit 6.4 attached hereto (subject to BioLine holding the license to the relevant project from the relevant IP owner at such time), NVS shall pay BioLine a non-refundable $5 million option fee (the “Option Fee”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon payment by NVS of the Option Fee and continuing through the end of the ROFN Period, the arrangements and restrictions set out in Section 6.8 shall apply with respect to the applicable Selected Project.

6.5 Budget and Funding for Selected Projects. The budget for each Selected Project would be funded as follows:

6.5.1 50% of the balance of the agreed development budget (after taking into account the Option Fee) (the “Development Budget Balance”) will be provided by NVS in the form of an equity investment in the ADSs of BioLine. The equity investment will be made no later than 30 days following the Selected Project Selection Date at a price per ADS reflecting a 5% premium over the VWAP, as reported on the Nasdaq, for the 10-day period ending on the day prior to the Project Selection Date. The terms and provisions of Section 2.1 and 2.3 above shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the aforesaid investment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BioLine will have the option to request that such funding be made in the form of debt, including convertible debt on terms that are to be agreed at the time, or in any other form as will be agreed by the Parties.

6.5.2 BioLine will be responsible for funding the remaining 50% of the Development Budget Balance for the Selected Project.

6.5.3 The budget will include all expenses related to the continued development activities for the Selected Project, including expenses for dedicated employees and consultants, as well as IP-related expenses, but will not include specific non-project-related expenses such as overhead costs incurred by either of the Parties. The budget will also include a reserve equal to at least 25% of the total of all other items in the budget, for cost-overruns, or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties.

6.6 Cost Overruns for Selected Projects. The following arrangements shall apply to cost overruns that may arise during the course of performing the development activities for a Selected Project:

6.6.1 If the costs exceed the agreed budget by up to [*]%, the Parties will fund such excess on an equal basis; provided, however, that where the costs exceed the agreed budget by [*]% or more, the Parties will have the option to choose whether they want to continue with the agreed development plan (as included in the Core Terms) or modify it. If both Parties agree to modify the development plan and agree on the allocation of costs with respect thereto (whether on an equal basis or otherwise), then the development plan and budget will be amended accordingly and the Selected Project will continue in accordance therewith.

6.6.2 If there is no agreement on modifying the development plan and the related allocation of costs, the Parties may either negotiate a new arrangement with respect to the Selected Project, including a new development plan and related budget, or the Party supporting the increase in the budget may elect to (i) assume the additional costs in excess of what the Party not supporting the increase is willing to fund - in which event the Selected Project shall continue, or (ii) stop its investment in the project - in which event the Selected Project shall cease to be included in the Collaboration, and BioLine shall be free to proceed with the development and commercialization thereof without any further obligation to NVS (subject, however, to BioLine’s obligation to pay NVS the Option Fee Repayment Amount pursuant and subject to the arrangements in Section 6.9.5 below).

BioLineRx - Novartis Pharma AG Collaboration Agreement

6.6.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Party will be required, without its prior agreement, to accept a budget for a Selected Project which exceeds the agreed budget by more than [*]%.

6.7 Development Activities for Selected Project. BioLine will retain full control over the development process of Selected Projects until the execution of a Sublicense Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, BioLine and NVS shall continue to consult on the progress of the implementation of the development plan for the Selected Project via the JDT.

6.8 Right of First Negotiation. At least six months prior to the expected availability of the draft clinical study report in respect of the Clinical Proof of Concept study defined in the Core Terms (the “CSR”) BioLine shall notify NVS in writing as to the expected date of sending the draft CSR with respect to a Selected Project. Upon receipt of such notice, NVS shall be entitled to access all due diligence materials for the Selected Project. For each Selected Project, NVS shall have a right of first negotiation (meaning, for the purpose of clarity, that BioLine will not actively solicit research, collaboration, co-development, commercialization, licensing or other similar opportunities with Third Parties) (“ROFN”) for a period of time commencing on the Selected Project Selection Date (in accordance with Section 6.3) and continuing until the later to occur of (i) the expiration of 4 months following the presentation to NVS of the draft CSR with respect to such Selected Project, and (ii) the expiration of 30 days following the presentation to NVS of the final CSR with respect to such Selected Project (the “ROFN Period”). NVS shall have the right, at any time during the ROFN Period, to commence a period of exclusive negotiations to obtain, to the maximum extent possible, an exclusive, sublicenseable, worldwide sublicense to develop, manufacture, exploit, sell and otherwise commercialize products based on, arising from and/or related to the particular Selected Project, by providing a good faith non-binding term sheet to BioLine, in which case the Parties will in good faith negotiate the terms of a definitive Sublicense Agreement. If no definitive Sublicense Agreement has been entered into prior to the end of the ROFN Period (or any longer period that may be agreed in writing between the Parties), then BioLine shall be entitled, without notice to NVS, to pursue Third Party Opportunities with respect to such Selected Project; [*]

7.2 BioLine Commitment. From and after the Effective Date and continuing until the end of the Term, except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, BioLine shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into any discussions or negotiations with a Third Party with a view to out-licensing or otherwise partnering any projects, technology or intellectual property rights sourced from any Israeli sources, or consummate any such transactions in a manner that is not consistent with the terms of this Agreement.

In such event, the Party seeking such disclosure will prepare a draft confidential treatment request and a proposed redacted version of this Agreement to request confidential treatment for this Agreement, and the other Party agrees to promptly (and in any event, no more than 7 days after receipt of such confidential treatment request and proposed redactions (or such lesser period of time as required by Law)) provide its input in a reasonable manner in order to allow the Party seeking disclosure to file its request within the time lines proscribed by applicable SEC regulations or equivalent foreign agency regulations. The Party seeking such disclosure shall exercise reasonable commercial efforts to obtain confidential treatment of the Agreement and its terms (as applicable) from the SEC or equivalent foreign agency as represented by the redacted version reviewed by the other Party.

11.4 Equitable Relief. Each Party acknowledges that a breach of this Article 11 may not reasonably or adequately be compensated in damages in an action at law and that such a breach shall cause the other Party irreparable injury and damage. By reason thereof, each Party agrees that the other Party may be entitled, in addition to any other remedies it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, to seek preliminary and permanent injunctive and other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent or curtail any breach of the obligations relating to Confidential Information set forth herein by the other Party.

Term and Termination

12.1 Term. The term (“Term”) of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Article 12, will continue in effect until the first to occur of (i) payment by NVS of the Option Fee in respect of three Projects or (ii) the later of (A) three years from the Effective Date or (B) the presentation by BioLine to NVS at the Joint Steering Committee of [*]

12.2 Termination for Breach.

12.2.1 Notice. If either Party believes that the other Party is in material breach of this Agreement, then the Party holding such belief (the “Non-Breaching Party”) may deliver written notice of such breach to the other Party (the “Notified Party”). The Notified Party shall have 30 days after receipt of such notice to cure such breach.

12.2.2 Failure to Cure. If the Notified Party fails to cure a material breach of this Agreement as provided for in Section 12.2.1, then the Non-Breaching Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the Notified Party.

12.2.3 Disputes. If a Party gives notice of termination under this Section 12.2 and the other Party disputes whether such termination is proper under this Section 12.2, then the issue of whether this Agreement may properly be terminated (i.e., whether a material breach occurred or whether a material breach was cured) shall be resolved in accordance with Article 13. If as a result of such dispute resolution process it is determined that the notice of termination was proper, then such termination shall be deemed to have been effective 30 days following the date of the notice of breach. If, as a result of such dispute resolution process, it is determined that the notice of termination was improper, then no termination shall have occurred and this Agreement shall remain in effect.

12.3 Effect of Termination of the Agreement. Expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Parties of any liability which accrued hereunder prior to the effective date of such expiration or termination or to which a Party may be contractually committed as of such effective date nor preclude either Party from pursuing all rights and remedies it may have hereunder or at law or in equity with respect to any material breach of this Agreement, nor prejudice either Party’s right to obtain performance of any obligation.

12.4 Survival. The following provisions shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement for the period of time specified: the provisions of Article 1, to the extent definitions are embodied in the following listed Articles and Sections of this Agreement; Articles 7, 8, 10, 11, 13 and 14; and Sections 6.9.5, and this Section 12.4, to the extent applicable.

Other provisions either required to interpret and enforce the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement shall also survive, but only to the extent required for the full observation and performance of this Agreement, or which by their express terms, survive such expiration or termination of this Agreement.

It is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of disputes arising under this Agreement in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation and without resort to litigation. To accomplish this objective, the Parties agree to follow the procedures set forth in this Article 13 to resolve any controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with any provision of this Agreement, if and when a dispute arises under this Agreement.

13.2 Internal Resolution. With respect to all disputes arising between the Parties under this Agreement, including any alleged breach under this Agreement or any issue relating to the interpretation or application of this Agreement, if the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute within 30 days after such dispute is first identified by either Party in writing to the other, the Parties shall refer such dispute to the Executives of the Parties for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations within 30 days after such notice is received.

13.3 Binding Arbitration. If the Executives are not able to resolve such disputed matter within 30 days and either of the Parties wishes to pursue the matter, each such dispute, controversy or claim shall be referred to and finally determined by arbitration by the International Chamber of Commerce in accordance with its arbitration rules then in effect. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. The dispute, controversy or claim shall be decided in accordance with the law of the State of New York, and U.S. federal law applicable therein. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Parties agree that:

13.3.1 Either Party may apply to the arbitrator(s) for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or provisional relief necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the arbitration award. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a Party’s compensatory damage. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees and an equal share of the arbitrators’ fees and any administrative fees of arbitration regardless of the outcome of such arbitration.

13.3.2 A Party shall be entitled to deduct or otherwise offset any damage finally awarded under a proceeding initiated under Section 13.3 against payments due under this Agreement, subject to any other decision of the arbitrators.

13.3.3 Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. In no event shall arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations under the laws of the State of New York.

13.3.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party shall be prevented from seeking injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction including but not limited to the situation contemplated in Section 11.5 (to prevent or curtail any breach of the obligations relating to Confidential Information as set forth in Article 11).

ARTICLE 14

Miscellaneous

14.1 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, including the Exhibits hereto, sets forth the complete, final and exclusive agreement and all the covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes, as of the Effective Date, all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. There are no covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions or understandings, either oral or written, between the Parties other than as are set forth herein and therein. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties unless reduced to writing and signed by an authorized officer of each Party.

14.2 Payments and Taxes. All payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer to an account designated by BioLine in writing to NVS and shall be made in Dollars. The Parties shall use all reasonable and legal efforts to reduce or eliminate tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of royalties, milestone payments, and other payments made by NVS to BioLine under this Agreement.

14.3 Force Majeure. Each Party shall be excused from the performance of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such performance is prevented by force majeure and the nonperforming Party promptly provides notice of the prevention to the other Party. Such excuse shall be continued so long as the condition constituting force majeure continues and the nonperforming Party takes reasonable efforts to remove the condition. For purposes of this Agreement, force majeure shall include conditions beyond the reasonable control of the nonperforming Party, including an act of God or terrorism, involuntary compliance with any regulation, law or order of any government, war, civil commotion, epidemic, failure or default of public utilities or common carriers, destruction of production facilities or materials by fire, earthquake, storm or like catastrophe. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party shall not be excused from making payments owed hereunder because of a force majeure affecting such Party. If a force majeure persists for more than 90 days, then the Parties will discuss in good faith the modification of the Parties’ obligations under this Agreement in order to mitigate the delays caused by such force majeure.
