(f) If Rosetta provides any software (in addition to the Mets Software and Improvements thereto) to Prometheus during the Term, such software shall be deemed to be licensed to Prometheus on the terms and conditions (mutatis mutandis) set forth in Section 2.14 unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties.

2.1.5 Right of First Negotiation for Specified Diagnostics Rights. Rosetta hereby grants to Prometheus a right of first negotiation (“ROFN”) to acquire or license from Rosetta rights to the following diagnostic tests or programs under development by Rosetta: (a) colorectal cancer prognosis regarding the risk of reoccurrence, (b) ovarian cancer responsiveness to carboplatin, and (c) lung cancer diagnostic tests regarding small cell versus non-small cell lung cancer (collectively, the “Specified Diagnostics Rights”). In the event that Rosetta proposes to sell, license, offer for sale, offer for license or agree to sell or license any of its Patent rights or assets relating to the Specified Diagnostic Rights (other than as part of a single disposition of all or substantially all of Rosetta’s assets, which for the avoidance of doubt must include all of Rosetta’s rights in the Licensed Products), and prior to Rosetta offering such Patent rights or assets for sale, it shall first provide Prometheus with (a) a summary of all material economic and financial terms upon which such Specified Diagnostic Rights are available (such terms to be commercially reasonable and provided by Rosetta to Prometheus in good faith), and (b) a period of [***] to negotiate with Rosetta with respect to a definitive agreement for an acquisition or license of the offered Patent rights and/or assets (the “ROFN Period”). During the ROFN Period, Rosetta shall not negotiate with or enter into any definitive agreement with any Third Party regarding the applicable Specified Diagnostic Rights. In the event that the Parties do not agree, after using good faith efforts, to definitive terms within such ROFN Period, then solely with respect to such Specified Diagnostic Rights, Rosetta shall be free to sell or license the applicable Specified Diagnostics Rights to a Third Party on either (a) if less than [***] from the time initially offered to Prometheus in accordance with this Section 2.1.5, terms not (i) less favorable than the terms last offered by Prometheus to Rosetta in writing prior to the expiration of the ROFN Period nor (ii) more favorable than those offered by Rosetta to Prometheus in writing prior to the expiration of the ROFN Period, or (b) if more than [***] after the time initially offered to Prometheus, on any terms which Rosetta so desires. If Rosetta has provided Prometheus with at least one (1) written offer proposing terms for Prometheus’ acquisition of the Specified Diagnostic Rights and Prometheus has rejected such offer and declined to make any other written offer during the ROFN Period, Rosetta shall be relieved of all obligations under this Section 2.1.5 upon the expiry of the ROFN Period. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) the ROFN shall not apply to Rosetta’s or its Affiliates’ own development or commercialization of the Specified Diagnostic Rights, and (b) neither Rosetta nor its Affiliates shall have any obligation to research or develop any of the Specified Diagnostic Rights, which activities shall be at Rosetta’s sole discretion.

2.1.6 Repurchase Right. Except to the extent covered by a Force Majeure Event or Rosetta’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and compliance therewith by Rosetta, Rosetta shall have the right to repurchase from Prometheus (in accordance with the terms hereof) and terminate the License if Net Sales of the Licensed Products by Prometheus and/or its Affiliates for the entire 2013 calendar year are less than [***] US dollars [***] in the aggregate (the “Repurchase Right”). Rosetta may elect to exercise such Repurchase Right by (a) providing written notice to Prometheus within thirty (30) days of Prometheus’ notification to Rosetta of the Royalties earned for the fourth (4th) calendar quarter of the 2013 calendar year, and (b) payment to Prometheus of an amount equal to [***] the aggregate Net Sales for the 2013 calendar year within five (5) business days of such election.

2.1.7 Retained Rights. Notwithstanding the licenses granted in Sections 2.1.1, 2.1.2 and 2.1.4, Rosetta retains the right for itself and its Affiliates under the Licensed Intellectual Property in the Prometheus Territory (a) to provide the Services pursuant to the Services Agreement for such period as Rosetta has any obligations to provide Services thereunder; (b) to conduct Diagnostic Tests or perform in the Prometheus Territory on a non-commercial, pre-commercial or non-clinical basis any validation studies or other support for research and development, in each case consistent with, and as limited by, Section 2.1.3(b); and (c) to conduct Diagnostic Tests on a commercial basis at its laboratory facilities located inside the Prometheus Territory using specimens initially collected from patients at a facility located outside the Prometheus Territory.

2.1.8 Prometheus Affiliates. In the event that Prometheus wishes any of its Affiliates to benefit from the licenses granted in Sections 2.1.1, 2.1.2 or 2.1.4 , Prometheus shall (a) notify Rosetta in writing of such fact and provide Xxxxxxx with the full name and primary business address of the relevant Affiliate, and (b) require such Affiliate to confirm in writing to Rosetta that it has read and will comply with the following Articles and Sections of this Agreement, mutatis mutandis: 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 2.1.4, 2.1.9, 2.4.2, 2.5, 3.3.3, 3.3.4, 6 and 12.2, and all definitions used in the foregoing. Any breach by a Prometheus Affiliate of the foregoing provisions shall be deemed to be a breach by Prometheus. In no event shall any Prometheus Affiliate have the right to grant sublicenses or assign its rights hereunder. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 8.1, neither Rosetta nor Prometheus intend that Rosetta shall have any contractual liability directly with any Prometheus Affiliate in connection with this Agreement, but in the event that such direct contractual liability may nonetheless arise (other than pursuant to Section 8.1), Article 10 shall apply thereto. Any license granted hereunder to a Prometheus Affiliate shall terminate immediately and automatically if such entity ceases to qualify under the definition of “Affiliate” provided in Article 1.

2.1.9 No Implied Licenses. For the avoidance of doubt, the License excludes any Exploitation of the Licensed Intellectual Property for the research or development of any products or services other than the Licensed Products or for general research or development of microRNA technology that is not specifically related to the Licensed Products.

2.4.1 By Rosetta. During the Term of this Agreement, neither Rosetta nor any of its Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, Exploit a Significant Direct Competitor in the Prometheus Territory or assist, transfer or license rights to any business that Rosetta knows intends to use such assistance or rights to Exploit a Significant Direct Competitor in the Prometheus Territory. Each of the Parties hereto recognizes that the restrictions contained in, and the terms of, this Section 2.4.1 are properly required for the adequate protection of Prometheus’ rights hereunder, and agree that if any provision in this Section 2.4.1 is determined by any court to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographic area, or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, such covenant shall be interpreted to extend only for the longest period of time and over the greatest geographic area, and to otherwise have the broadest application as shall be enforceable. [***]. If Rosetta or any of its Affiliates are acquired by or merge with a Third Party that has a Significant Direct Competitor, neither Rosetta nor any of its Affiliates will have any obligations under this Section 2.4.1 with respect to such Significant Direct Competitor; provided that the division, subsidiary or business group of the surviving party in such change of control that pursues such Significant Direct Competitor shall not have access to, and shall not refer to, rely upon or use in any manner, the Licensed Intellectual Property with respect to such Significant Direct Competitor.

2.4.2 By Prometheus. During the Term of this Agreement, neither Prometheus nor any of its Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, Exploit a Significant Direct Competitor that is not a Licensed Product in the Prometheus Territory, or otherwise assist or transfer or license rights to any business that Prometheus knows intends to use such assistance or rights to Exploit a Significant Direct Competitor in the Prometheus Territory. Each of the Parties hereto recognizes that the restrictions contained in, and the terms of, this Section 2.4.2 are properly required for the adequate protection of Rosetta’s rights hereunder, and agree that if any provision in this Section 2.4.2 is determined by any court to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographic area, or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, such covenant shall be interpreted to extend only for the longest period of time and over the greatest geographic area, and to otherwise have the broadest application as shall be enforceable. [***]. If Prometheus or any of its Affiliates are acquired by or merge with a Third Party that has a Significant Direct Competitor that is not a Licensed Product, neither Prometheus nor any of its Affiliates will have any obligations under this Section 2.4.2 with respect to such Significant Direct Competitor; provided that the division, subsidiary or business group of the surviving party in such change of control that pursues such Significant Direct Competitor shall not have access to, and shall not refer to, rely upon or use in any manner, the Licensed Intellectual Property with respect to such Significant Direct Competitor, except with Rosetta’s prior written consent and on the condition that such Significant Direct Competitor be treated as a Licensed Product hereunder.

2.5 Compliance with Upstream License Agreements.

2.5.1 Prometheus acknowledges its receipt prior to the Effective Date of copies of the Xxx Xxxxxx Agreement, Rockefeller Agreement, THM Agreement and JHU Agreement. Prometheus agrees to accept and comply, and to ensure that its Sublicensees and any Affiliates that receive the benefits of the Licenses accept and comply, with the following:

(a) Sections 3.2, 4.2, 4.3, 4.5, 4.6, 5.5 and 8 of the Xxx Xxxxxx Agreement.

- 17 -

(b) All terms and conditions of the Rockefeller Agreement except for Rosetta’s payment and reporting obligations.

(d) Prometheus agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates or Sublicensees shall have any claims and/or demands of whatever type and nature against THM or its Affiliates, including in the event of termination of the THM Agreement by THM according to its terms.

(e) Prometheus acknowledges and accepts that, subject to the direct license to be provided by THM to Prometheus pursuant to that certain letter agreement to be executed by Rosetta, THM and Prometheus on or before the Closing, the sublicense of THM’s rights under Sections 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 hereof shall expire automatically upon the termination of the THM Agreement for any reason, provided that, THM’s termination of such sublicense license shall in no way affect any Co-Exclusive rights Prometheus may have obtained or obtain in the future by virtue of Rosetta’s joint ownership to inventions which were developed under the THM Agreement.

2.5.2 In the event that the Committee determines by a unanimous, formal decision documented in writing that any microRNAs that are subject to the JHU Agreement will be included in the Second Generation Mets Test (which determination shall automatically result in the JHU Agreement becoming an Upstream License Agreement hereunder), the following terms and conditions shall apply (mutatis mutandis) effective as of the date of such determination:

(a) The terms and conditions of the JHU Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference, including the terms and conditions reproduced in Annex G to this Agreement.

(b) JHU and Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Medical Institute (“HHMI”) shall be deemed to be third party beneficiaries of the obligations of Prometheus hereunder without imposition of obligation or liability on the part of JHU, HHMI or their Inventors (as defined in the JHU Agreement) to Prometheus.

Prior to a final determination by the Committee that any microRNAs that are subject to the JHU Agreement will be included in the Second Generation Mets Test, Rosetta shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to procure JHU’s consent to an amendment to the JHU Agreement that (at a minimum) expressly relieves Prometheus and its Affiliates of any obligation with respect to Rosetta’s payment and reporting obligations under the JHU Agreement that might otherwise be deemed to apply to Prometheus or its Affiliates as a consequence of Section 2.5.2(a).

2.6 After-acquired Rights. In order for an Upstream License Agreement entered into by Rosetta after the Effective Date to be deemed to be Controlled by Rosetta, Prometheus also must first accept in writing any obligations thereunder that are required by the Upstream Licensor to be imposed upon sublicensees (other than Rosetta’s own payment and reporting obligations) as a condition of the grant of a sublicense thereunder. Rosetta will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to avoid the inclusion in an Upstream License Agreement entered into after the Effective Date of any term or condition that would require Prometheus or its Affiliates to make payments or supply reports directly to the Upstream Licensor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any technology covered by the rights licensed to Rosetta under such future Upstream License Agreements shall only be incorporated into the Licensed Products in accordance with Section 3.3.1 and the sections cross referenced therein.

3.2 Development Program.

3.2.1 Development Program. Within one hundred twenty (120) days of the Effective Date, the Parties shall commence a development and feasibility assessment program for the purposes of:

(a) developing the Licensed Products for use with microarray technology as an alternative to Real-time PCR Technology;

(b) obtaining Regulatory Approval for the Mets Test; and

(c) designing, developing, testing, refining, and obtaining Regulatory Approval for each of the IBD Test, the IBS Test and the Second Generation Mets Test (collectively, the “Development Program”).

3.2.2 Development Plan. As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date, the Committee shall agree upon a development plan to carry out and complete the Development Program which shall be substantially in the form set forth in Annex B, as may be amended by agreement of the Parties from time to time (the “Development Plan”), acting reasonably. The Development Plan shall include Rosetta’s good-faith estimate of the time and actual costs required to conduct the Development Program (the “Budget”).

3.2.3 Responsibility. Subject to oversight by the Committee and in accordance with the Development Plan, Rosetta shall assume primary responsibility for the validation of the Licensed Products in the Prometheus Territory in accordance with the Development Plan.

3.2.4 Development Expenses.

(a) Prometheus shall contribute, subject to the offsetting provided in Section 3.2.4(c), up to a maximum of [***] US dollars [***] to the Development Fund, which amount shall be paid in accordance with the Budget (the “Prometheus Development Contribution”). The Prometheus Development Contribution shall be comprised of an initial payment of [***] US dollars [***], which Prometheus has committed to pay at the commencement of the Development Program to support transition of the Licensed Products from a Real-Time PCR Technology-based platform to a microarray platform, and up to [***] additional payments of [***] US dollars [***], subject to attainment of certain development milestones to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties and set forth in the Development Plan. In addition,

(i) if an FDA Clearance is required in order for Rosetta to perform the Services with respect to a Licensed Product, and Rosetta requires the benefit of such FDA Clearance for its activities with respect to such Licensed Product in the Prometheus Territory as permitted hereunder, Rosetta shall so notify Prometheus in writing and the Parties shall share the costs of obtaining such FDA Clearance.

(ii) if an FDA Clearance is required in order for Rosetta to perform the Services with respect to a Licensed Product, but Rosetta does not require the benefit of such FDA Clearance for its activities with respect to such Licensed Product in the Prometheus Territory as permitted hereunder, Rosetta shall so notify Prometheus in writing and Rosetta shall obtain such FDA Clearance on Prometheus’ behalf, provided that Prometheus shall reimburse Rosetta for all of Rosetta’s reasonable costs of obtaining such FDA Clearance at such time as the FDA Clearance is transferred to Prometheus;

- 22 -

(iii) if an FDA Clearance is not required in order for Rosetta to perform the Services with respect to a Licensed Product, but Rosetta nonetheless requires the benefit of such FDA Clearance for its own activities with respect to such Licensed Product in the Prometheus Territory as permitted hereunder, Rosetta shall bear [***] of the costs of obtaining such FDA Clearance;

(iv) if an FDA Clearance is required for a Licensed Product in order to transfer such Licensed Product to a laboratory owned or operated by Prometheus, Rosetta shall bear [***] of the costs of obtaining such FDA Clearance up to a maximum of [***] US dollars [***] and any costs in excess of that amount shall be borne solely by Prometheus; and/or

(v) if an FDA Clearance is required for a Licensed Product during any period in which Prometheus is performing Diagnostic Tests in laboratories owned or operated by Prometheus, Prometheus shall bear [***] of the costs of obtaining such FDA Clearance.

Each Party shall work together to minimize the costs and expenses of the other Party when such other Party is seeking to obtain FDA Clearance (including, without limitation, by taking advantage of and sharing any applicable existing data, documents and/or reports which such Party may have in its possession and is necessary or useful in order to receive FDA Clearance). Each Party shall bear the cost of any CLIA certifications or approvals or other state or local Regulatory Approvals required for the operation of its own laboratories. With respect to any other Regulatory Filings and/or Regulatory Approvals not expressly addressed in this Section 3.2.4(a) that are required to be submitted or obtained by either Party, the Party in whose name such Regulatory Approvals are to be submitted and obtained shall bear all costs and expenses associated therewith, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties pursuant to the applicable Development Plan. Prometheus shall be responsible for obtaining, at its expense, all samples required for the research and development of the IBS Test and IBD Test. Except as expressly provided herein or in the Development Plan, all other additional costs and expenses required to conduct the Development Plan shall be borne solely by Rosetta, provided that Rosetta shall receive compensation, in the form of an increase to the Royalty, equal to [***] of Prometheus’ net savings in cost of goods resulting from developing the Licensed Products with an alternative technology to Real-Time PCR Technology. By way of example only, if Prometheus’ net costs to utilize Real-Time PCR Technology are equal to [***] of Net Sales (including but not limited to Prometheus’ direct cost of goods and any amounts which Prometheus or Rosetta is required to pay to a Third Party in royalties or other consideration), and through the success of the Development Plan, a Diagnostic Test no longer relies on Real-Time PCR Technology, such that Prometheus’ net costs are reduced to [***], then the Royalty due to Rosetta shall be increased from the Royalty stated in Section 4.3.1 by [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, the costs of any freedom to operate opinions desired after the Effective Date are outside the scope of the Development Program and shall not be payable from the Development Fund.

(b) In addition, Prometheus shall contribute to the Development Fund, subject to the offsetting provided in Section 3.2.4(c), up to an additional [***] US dollars [***] in funding for the development and validation of the Licensed Products over a [***] period following the Effective Date (of which up to [***] US dollars [***] may be used to develop the Second Generation Mets Test) to the extent that such additional development and validation work is deemed to be required by the Committee. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, as of the Effective Date, Annex E sets forth the good-faith pre-estimate of the Parties regarding the amount of additional funding required to conduct the further development and validation of the Licensed Products described in Annex E.

- 23 -

(c) Rosetta shall contribute to the Development Fund [***] (such contribution to be made no later than five (5) business days after receiving [***] from Prometheus) up to an initial maximum of [***] US dollars [***], and up to a total maximum of [***] US dollars [***] if the Committee determines that the amounts contributable by Prometheus pursuant to Section 3.2.4(b) should be contributed. Prometheus shall be entitled to reduce its contributions to the Development Fund under Sections 3.2.4(a) and (b) by [***] contributed to the Development Fund.

3.2.5 Development Program Payments.

(a) In partial consideration of the development and validation of the Mets Test and Second Generation Mets Test, Prometheus (or a designated Affiliate) shall pay to Rosetta:

(i) a one-time payment of [***] US dollars [***] upon the publication of clinical utility data from a clinical utility study (i.e. the MD Xxxxxxxx study) supporting the current product profile related to the Mets Test or the Second Generation Mets Test in a scientific peer-reviewed journal that is recognized by the scientific community in the Prometheus Territory as reputable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the clinical utility data is not submitted by Rosetta for publication on or prior to [***], then the aforementioned payment shall be reduced to [***].

(ii) a one-time payment of [***] US dollars [***] upon the publication of a pharmacoeconomics study supporting the current product profile related to the Mets Test or the Second Generation Mets Test in a scientific peer-reviewed journal that is recognized by the scientific community in the Prometheus Territory as reputable.

(b) In partial consideration of the development and validation of the IBS Test and IBD Test, Prometheus (or a designated Affiliate) shall pay to Rosetta a one-time payment of [***] US dollars [***] upon the achievement of the preferred product profile for the IBS Test and a one-time payment of [***] US dollars [***] upon the achievement of the preferred product profile for the IBD Test. The preferred profile for each of the IBS Test and the IBD Test shall be defined in advance by the Committee and documented in the Development Plan prior to Rosetta’s commencement of development work relating thereto. In addition, Prometheus (or a designated Affiliate) shall pay to Rosetta a one-time payment of [***] US dollars [***] if the preferred product profile for the IBS Test is achieved by the target date defined in advance by the Committee and documented in the Development Plan.

3.2.6 Diligence Obligations.

(a) The Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to adequately and timely comply with, execute and complete the tasks set forth in the Development Plan and in accordance with the Budget. Rosetta shall consider any comments provided by Prometheus through the Committee with respect to such development activities, including the submission of Regulatory Filings.

(b) If, during the Term, Prometheus notifies the Committee that any other Regulatory Approval is required for any Licensed Product anywhere in the Prometheus Territory, then the Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain Regulatory Approval for such Licensed Product with the applicable Regulatory Authority in the Prometheus Territory.

- 24 -

(c) The term “Commercially Reasonable Efforts” shall mean that level of effort as is customary in the laboratory services industry for carrying out in a reasonably sustained manner a particular task or obligation to develop and commercialize diagnostic products in the United States, taking into consideration the market potential, regulatory pathways and cost of development in the United States. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party’s achievement, by itself or through its Affiliates or Sublicensees, of any diligence milestone set forth in the Development Plan by the date set forth therein shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy the requirement to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts under this Section 3.2 as of such date provided all previous diligence milestones set forth in the Development Plan have also been satisfied or waived in writing by that date, but the failure to do so shall not, in and of itself, be deemed a failure to satisfy the requirement of Commercially Reasonable Efforts.

3.3 Improvements.

3.3.1 Rosetta Improvements. From time to time during the Term, Rosetta or its Affiliates or its licensees outside the Prometheus Territory may independently develop or otherwise acquire Improvements to one or more Licensed Products for use in the Field over which Rosetta obtains ownership or Control (a “Rosetta Improvement”). In such case, Rosetta shall promptly present to Prometheus any such Rosetta Improvement for potential inclusion in the Licensed Products. Prometheus shall consider such proposal in good faith (including making the appropriate personnel of Prometheus available to discuss any such proposal with Rosetta); provided that Prometheus shall solely control and retain final decision-making authority with respect to incorporating any such Rosetta Improvements into the Licensed Products. Prometheus shall notify Rosetta of its decision to include or exclude such Rosetta Improvement in a signed writing. To the extent Rosetta owns or Controls any Patents with Valid Claims covering the subject matter of a Rosetta Improvement and such Rosetta Improvement is incorporated by Prometheus into the Licensed Products during the Term, such Patents shall be deemed Licensed Patents and added to Annex A and as such shall be licensed to Prometheus according to the License in Section 2.1 subject to all terms and conditions hereunder applicable to Licensed Patents including those set forth in Article 5, and the Term shall be extended accordingly. Any incremental costs in sublicensing to Prometheus Rosetta Improvements which were licensed by Rosetta pursuant to an Upstream License shall be borne by the parties consistent with the terms of Section 4.4.1(a). In connection with the foregoing, when Rosetta enters into any agreement or other arrangement with a Third Party, an Affiliate or a licensee that may result in the development, creation or acquisition by Rosetta, its Affiliates or licensees of any Improvements relating to the Licensed Products for use in the Field, Rosetta will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts not to limit or otherwise restrict Rosetta’s ability to grant a license or sublicense to any such Improvements as provided for herein without violating the terms of any such agreement or other arrangement and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to minimize any sublicense fees or pass through royalties which will be owed to the Upstream Licensor thereunder.

3.3.2 Ownership of Improvements. The Parties acknowledge that Prometheus and Rosetta have collaborated and intend to continue to collaborate in the development of Licensed Products, and that such collaboration may generate Improvements whether or not patentable. In order to permit and encourage a successful collaboration and protect the key business interests of both Parties, the Parties agree that, as between the Parties, ownership of any Improvements to Licensed Products arising from the development of the Licensed Products in the Prometheus Territory made by one or both of the Parties shall be determined in accordance with United States laws of inventorship. To the extent any Improvements are deemed by applicable Law to be jointly owned by the Parties (“Joint Improvements”), then notwithstanding any rights of the Parties under the United States laws of inventorship, and notwithstanding any rights of the Parties under laws of any jurisdiction regarding the use or licensing of jointly owned Patents, Prometheus shall have the royalty-free sole and exclusive right (even as against Rosetta and its Affiliates) to Exploit and license such Joint Improvements for Licensed Products inside the Prometheus Territory during the Term and Rosetta shall have the royalty-free sole and exclusive right (even as against Prometheus and its Affiliates) to Exploit and license such Joint Improvements for Licensed Products outside the Prometheus Territory during the Term, provided that Rosetta shall retain the right to Exploit such Joint Improvements inside the Prometheus Territory for the purposes set forth in Section 2.1.7. For the avoidance of doubt, either Party shall remain free to Exploit and license such Joint Improvements anywhere in the world in connection with products and services other than the Licensed Products. Notwithstanding this Section 3.3.2 (but subject to Section 9), as between the Parties:

- 25 -

(a) Prometheus shall exclusively own: (i) all data generated by or on behalf of Prometheus in connection with Licensed Products, except as set forth in Section 3.3.2(c); (ii) any and all Regulatory Approvals filed or awarded (y) in any jurisdiction in the Prometheus Territory related to the Licensed Products, all of which shall be filed by Rosetta for and on behalf of Prometheus in Prometheus’ name, and (z) in any jurisdiction inside the Prometheus Territory related to Prometheus’ laboratory facilities; (iii) any Prometheus Confidential Information; and (iv) as between the Parties, the Prometheus Product Improvements. Rosetta shall have a non-exclusive right of reference to the Regulatory Approvals for use outside the Prometheus Territory for any products and services, and inside the Prometheus Territory for products and services that are not Licensed Products.

(b) Rosetta shall exclusively own: (i) all data generated by or on behalf of Rosetta in connection with the Licensed Products, except as set forth in Section 3.3.2(c); (ii) any and all Regulatory Approvals filed or awarded (y) in any jurisdiction outside the Prometheus Territory related to the Licensed Products, or (z) in any jurisdiction inside the Prometheus Territory related to Rosetta’s laboratory facilities; (iii) any Rosetta Confidential Information; and (iv) as between the Parties, the Rosetta Improvements. Prometheus shall have a non-exclusive right to use all data generated by Rosetta on behalf of itself, its other licensees (to the extent permitted) and Prometheus in connection with the Licensed Products and a right of reference to the Regulatory Approvals for use inside the Prometheus Territory in connection with the Licensed Products.

(c) Data relating to the Mets Test or the Second Generation Mets Test that is generated by either Party under the Development Program will be jointly owned by the Parties. Data relating to the IBS Test or the IBD Test that is generated by either Party under the Development Program will be solely owned by Prometheus.

3.3.3 Prometheus Product Improvements. Prometheus agrees that any research or development activities that it wishes to pursue using the Licensed Intellectual Property shall be brought to the attention of the Committee and, subject to the approval of the Committee, shall be pursued solely through the Development Program. Nevertheless, if during the Term Prometheus or its Affiliates or its Sublicensees independently develop or otherwise acquire Improvements (other than a Platform Improvement, which shall be subject to Section 3.3.4) to one or more Licensed Products for use in the Field over which Prometheus obtains ownership or Control (a “Prometheus Product Improvement”) this Section 3.3.3 shall apply. In such case, Prometheus shall promptly after any decision to incorporate such Prometheus Product Improvement into a Licensed Product inside the Prometheus Territory present to Rosetta any such Prometheus Product Improvement for potential inclusion in the Licensed Products outside the Prometheus Territory. Rosetta shall consider such proposal in good faith (including making the appropriate personnel of Rosetta available to discuss any such proposal with Prometheus); provided that Rosetta and its licensees shall solely control and retain final decision-making authority with respect to incorporating any such Prometheus Product Improvements into the Licensed Products outside the Prometheus Territory. To the extent Prometheus owns or Controls any Patents with Valid Claims covering the subject matter of a Prometheus Product Improvement and such Prometheus Product Improvement is incorporated by Rosetta or its licensees into the Licensed Products outside the Prometheus Territory during the Term, such Patents shall be licensed to Rosetta (with the right to sublicense to the extent permitted by any applicable Third Party license agreement) on a royalty-free basis (other than amounts due to any Third Party that has licensed such Prometheus Product Improvement to Prometheus, to the extent that such amounts are due to Prometheus’ grant of a sublicense to Rosetta, and the payment by Rosetta of [***] of all of Prometheus’s development costs incurred in connection with the applicable licensed Prometheus Product Improvements and [***] of all patent prosecution and maintenance expenses (including attorney fees) for such Patents outside of the Prometheus Territory, provided that Rosetta shall only be entitled to grant sublicensees to its licensees that have granted a reciprocal license option to Prometheus under such licensee’s Improvements to Licensed Products, which, for clarity, may include development cost reimbursement and patent prosecution contributions substantially similar to the foregoing. In connection with the foregoing, when Prometheus enters into any agreement or other arrangement with a Third Party, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee that may result in the development, creation or acquisition by Prometheus, its Affiliates or licensees of any Prometheus Product Improvements for use in the Field, Prometheus will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts not to limit or otherwise restrict Prometheus’s ability to grant a license or sublicense to any such Prometheus Product Improvements as provided for herein without violating the terms of any such agreement or other arrangement and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to minimize any sublicense fees or pass through royalties which will be owed to the licensor thereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Prometheus Product Improvement Patent has been licensed by Prometheus from a Third Party, then neither Rosetta nor any of its sublicensees shall receive a license under such Prometheus Product Improvement Patent unless and until Rosetta and its sublicensees, as applicable, have agreed in writing to be bound by any and all applicable restrictions set forth in the license agreement between Prometheus and such Third Party and a copy of such agreement to be bound has been provided to Prometheus. Any breach by a sublicensee of any of the applicable obligations under such Third Party license agreement shall be deemed to be a breach by Rosetta of this Agreement.

- 26 -

3.3.4 Prometheus Platform Improvements. Prometheus shall notify Rosetta in writing of any Platform Improvements conceived and reduced to practice by Prometheus and/or its Affiliates promptly upon Prometheus’ senior management or patent counsel being notified of the same. Rosetta shall solely own all intellectual property rights in and to the Platform Improvements developed by Prometheus and/or its Affiliates. Prometheus, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby makes all assignments, and agrees to execute, at Rosetta’s costs and expense, all documents, necessary to perfect Rosetta’s ownership of such intellectual property rights as set forth in the preceding sentence. Prometheus shall have the right to elect to include such Platform Improvements in the Licensed Products. To the extent Rosetta owns or Controls any Patents with Valid Claims covering the subject matter of a Platform Improvement and such Platform Improvement is incorporated by Prometheus into the Licensed Products during the Term, such Patents shall be deemed Licensed Patents and added to Annex A and as such shall be licensed to Prometheus on according to the License in Section 2.1 subject to all terms and conditions hereunder applicable to Licensed Patents including those set forth in Article 5, and the Term shall be extended accordingly, provided that if such Patents constitute the only Licensed Patent for which there is a Valid Claim covering the Licensed Product the royalty set forth in 4.3.1 shall be reduced by [***].

- 27 -

3.4 Commercialization.

3.4.1 Control. Prometheus shall solely control and assume all responsibility, at its own cost, for conducting all commercialization activities within the Prometheus Territory relating to the Licensed Products, including marketing, promotion, sales detailing and any other activities relating to the Exploitation of the Licensed Products or Sublicense of rights to perform Diagnostic Tests for Prometheus. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Rosetta shall have the right to participate separately (or if the Parties mutually desire, with Prometheus) in industry conferences, industry exhibitions and industry events within the Prometheus Territory for purposes of promoting the Licensed Products outside of the Prometheus Territory.

3.4.2 Marketing Plans. Each Party may, in its sole discretion, share marketing plans and materials with the other Party with the object of coordinating a world-wide marketing effort to maximize the commercial potential of the Licensed Products.

3.4.3 Diligence Obligations. Prometheus shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to commercialize each of the Licensed Products in the Prometheus Territory during the Term, provided that neither Prometheus’ failure to reach any particular sales level by any particular time, nor Prometheus’ failure to market or continue to market any Licensed Product(s) due to any Potential Blocking Patents, shall, in and of itself, be deemed a failure to satisfy the requirement of Commercially Reasonable Efforts.

3.4.4 Regulatory Action Letters. The Parties shall promptly notify each other in writing of the receipt of any action letters from any Regulatory Authority in connection with quality or other issues concerning the Licensed Products. Within a reasonable time frame prior to submission of responses to any Regulatory Authority on such quality or other issues concerning the Licensed Products, a copy of a near final draft response will be provided to the other Party for review. Final copies of responses submitted to any Regulatory Authority will be provided to the other Party within two (2) weeks of submission. Furthermore, Prometheus shall promptly notify Rosetta in writing of any complaints received by Prometheus regarding any Licensed Product, including the performance of any Diagnostic Test or the results thereof, in the Prometheus Territory.

3.5 Patent Marking. Subject to applicable laws and regulations, labeling on all Licensed Products sold by or on behalf of Prometheus or its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement and on all product literature will (a) identify Rosetta as licensor of the Licensed Patents where required by applicable Law, (b) display any specific patent and patent application numbers as identified by Rosetta, and (c) comply with all patent marking requirements as specified in 35 U.S.C. § 287.

PAYMENTS

4.1 Up-Front Equity. In partial consideration of the License granted hereunder and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in that certain Stock Purchase Agreement entered into between the Parties concurrently with this Agreement, Rosetta shall sell, convey, assign and deliver to Prometheus, and Prometheus shall purchase and accept from Rosetta, two million (2,000,000) ordinary shares at a price of four US dollars ($4.00) per share for the aggregate purchase price of eight million US dollars ($8,000,000) (the “Up-Front Stock Issuance”).

4.2 Milestone Payments.

- 28 -

4.2.1 Commercial Milestone Payments. In partial consideration of the License granted hereunder and subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, Prometheus (or a designated Affiliate) shall make the following one-time payments to Rosetta subject to the occurrence of the corresponding milestone events specified below. Such payments shall be allocated at the time of payment among the Diagnostic Tests according to the proportion of total Net Sales attributable to each Diagnostic Test for the period to which the milestone payment relates.

(a) Cumulative Net Sales during the Term of [***]	[*] US dollars [*]
(b) First calendar year during the Term in which annual Net Sales exceed [***]	[*] US dollars [*]

Such milestone payments shall be paid by Prometheus, or its designated Affiliate within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of the applicable milestone event set forth above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, only one (1) milestone payment due pursuant to this Section 4.2.1 shall be payable in any single calendar year during the Term. In the event that two (2) or more milestone payments become due to Rosetta in any single calendar year during the Term pursuant to this Section 4.2.1, the first milestone payment shall be due and payable by Prometheus as set forth herein, and the payment date for any subsequent milestone payments accrued during the applicable calendar year shall be automatically delayed until the date that is thirty (30) days after the last day of the calendar year in which the immediately preceding accrued milestone payment has been paid.

4.3 Royalty.

4.3.1 In partial consideration of the License granted hereunder and subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, until the expiration of the Term, Prometheus shall pay to Rosetta a royalty (“Royalty”) on Net Sales by Prometheus, its Affiliates and Sublicensees at the royalty rate, in each case subject to the permitted reductions set forth in Section 4.4, of:

(a) [***] on annual Net Sales of all Licensed Products within the Prometheus Territory other than the IBS Test and the IBD Test; and

(b) [***] on annual Net Sales of the IBS Test and the IBD Test.

4.3.2 The annual Net Sales set forth above shall be measured from the beginning of each calendar year. Royalties payable under this Section 4.3 will be payable only once with respect to a particular Licensed Product, regardless of the number of Licensed Patents, if any, with claims covering a Licensed Product.

4.4 Permitted Reductions.

4.4.1 License of Third Party Intellectual Property.

(a) As between the Parties, Prometheus shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary licenses for any Commercial Technology Platform used in connection with the Exploitation of Licensed Products. However, if Rosetta is required to obtain a license under any Commercial Technology Platform which is necessary to perform the Services, Rosetta (and, unless otherwise also required, not Prometheus) shall be responsible for obtaining such license during the period in which Rosetta is providing the Services. Prometheus shall be responsible for paying directly to Third Parties, or increasing its Royalty payments to Rosetta (if and to the extent Rosetta is required to make payments directly to a Third Party), any amounts due from Rosetta or Prometheus to any Third Parties under any Commercial Technology Platform license agreements or due from Prometheus or Rosetta under any Upstream License Agreements, but solely to the extent, in each case, such amounts due arise directly from the performance of the Services on Prometheus’ behalf or Prometheus’, its Affiliates’ and/or its Sublicensees’ Exploitation of the Products in the Prometheus Territory, and in each case, solely up to a maximum aggregate amount of the Third Party Royalty Cap. To the extent such amounts due exceed the Third Party Royalty Cap, the excess costs shall be borne by and timely paid by Rosetta.

- 29 -

(b) Except when Prometheus has elected to proceed under Section 5.3, the Royalty during the Term may be reduced in the Prometheus Territory by [***] of any and all royalties paid by Prometheus, its Affiliates and/or Sublicensees to any Third Party (other than amounts for which Prometheus is responsible pursuant to Section 4.4.1(a) above), [***]. Prometheus shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to minimize any such royalties or other payments to Third Parties on account of sales of Licensed Products hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, no reduction shall be available with respect to a Combination Product if the actual, alleged or potential infringement that Prometheus wishes to avoid would not occur if the Licensed Product component of such Combination Product was Exploited without the other diagnostically active components, or in the case of (iii), the Third Party intellectual property rights are primarily useful or necessary for the other diagnostically active components.

4.4.2 Combination Products. Prometheus shall not promote, offer for sale or sell any Licensed Product in combination with another diagnostically active product or products that are not Licensed Products (each a “Combination Product”) unless such Combination Product has first received the unanimous consent of the Committee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the sale of such a Combination Product is permitted by the Committee, the Royalty payable by Prometheus to Rosetta with respect to such Combination Product shall be reduced by an amount which is calculated based on the following formula:

[***]

[***]. The amount included in Net Sales with respect to each Combination Product for which the Licensed Products and other components, products, processes or systems contained therein do not have established, stand-alone CPT value in a particular jurisdiction in the Prometheus Territory, shall be based on the actual price of such items when sold separately or the relative fair market value of each if not sold separately or, if none of the foregoing can be reasonably determined, based on the relative cost of goods (determined according to GAAP). Any disagreement between the parties regarding the value for any aspect of a Combination Product shall be determined by the parties through good faith negotiations.

4.5 Payment and Reports. Within forty-five (45) days after the final calendar quarter of each year during the Term, and within thirty (30) days after the end of each other calendar quarter during the Term (each such quarter, a “Royalty Reporting Quarter”), Prometheus shall provide Rosetta with an updated written report setting forth on product-by-product basis the Net Sales during such Royalty Reporting Quarter and the calculation of the Royalty payable to Rosetta for such Net Sales pursuant to this Section 4, including the allowances for bad debt and any other any reductions to or deductions from gross sales taken by Prometheus in accordance with this Agreement. Such report shall be accompanied by a payment equal to the total Royalty due, if any, to Rosetta pursuant to this Section 4. All payments shall be made to Rosetta on or before the due date for each such report following the end of the Royalty Reporting Quarter in United States Dollars. Sales made in currencies other than United States Dollars shall be converted to United States Dollars in accordance with GAAP, treating United States dollars as the reporting currency.

- 30 -

4.6 Record Keeping. Prometheus shall keep, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to keep, complete and accurate books of accounts of record in connection with the sublicensing and sale of Licensed Products to permit verification of payments made hereunder. Such records shall be maintained for the period equal to the later of (a) three (3) years from the date on which they were generated, or (b) as required by applicable Law.

4.7 Audit Rights. Rosetta shall have the right to have an independent Third Party nationally-recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Prometheus access the books and records of Prometheus, its Affiliates and Sublicensees solely to the extent necessary to verify the accuracy of the reports and payments made hereunder. Such audit shall be conducted upon at least thirty (30) days advanced written notice to Prometheus and shall commence on a date reasonably acceptable to both Parties, not to be later than one (1) calendar quarter after Rosetta’s notice. Such audit shall only be during Prometheus’ normal business hours. Such audit shall not be more frequent than once (1) per calendar year, may occur only with respect to the immediately preceding three (3) calendar years, may not audit less than a full calendar year, and may not be conducted more than once with respect to any particular calendar year. The auditing party shall be required to sign a confidentiality agreement for the benefit of, and in a form reasonably acceptable to, Prometheus. Prometheus shall be provided the opportunity to discuss any discrepancies found during such audit with the auditors prior to such auditor issuing its final report. In addition, the auditors shall redact any confidential information disclosed in the proposed final report identified by Prometheus as confidential and not necessary for purposes of calculating the Royalty owed. The final report shall be shared with both of the Parties and may be shared with any Upstream Licensors if its interests are affected by the findings in such report, or if the audit was performed at its request or in fulfillment of a contractual obligation of Rosetta under the applicable Upstream License Agreement, provided that the applicable Upstream Licensor must at all times agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information on terms no less restrictive than those set forth in Section 6. If any audit discloses any underpayments by Prometheus to Rosetta, then unless contested by Prometheus within thirty (30) days after receipt of the necessary documentation of the amount owed, any underpayment shall be paid by Prometheus to Rosetta within thirty (30) days of it being so disclosed. If any audit discloses any overpayments by Prometheus to Rosetta, then unless contested by Rosetta within thirty (30) days after receipt of the necessary documentation of the amount owed, Prometheus shall have the right to credit the amount of the overpayment against each subsequent quarterly payment due to Rosetta until the overpayment has been fully applied. If the overpayment is not fully applied prior to the final quarterly payment of Royalties due hereunder, Rosetta shall promptly refund an amount equal to any such remaining overpayment. If Rosetta’s audit demonstrates an underpayment of more than [***] for the payment due to Rosetta during the audited period, Prometheus shall be liable for Rosetta’s reasonable cost of the audit that discovered such underpayment. Otherwise, Rosetta shall bear the costs of such audits. Any contested amounts shall be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 11.

4.8 Withholding Taxes. Where required to do so by applicable Law or order of a governmental body, a Party making payments hereunder shall withhold taxes required to be paid to a taxing authority in connection with any payments to the other Party hereunder, and, upon request of the Party to which the payment is due, the paying Party shall furnish the receiving Party with satisfactory evidence of such withholding and payment. Any amounts withheld pursuant to this Section 4.8 shall be treated as having been paid by the Party making such withholding for all purposes under this Agreement. To the extent any payments are made hereunder without withholding (at the request of the Party which was to receive such payment), and withholding is later determined to have been required, or is assessed, by an governmental entity, the Party receiving such payments shall indemnify the other Party, including, without limitation, for any withholding tax, interest and/or penalties thereon, and any other reasonable expenses related thereto. The Parties shall give reasonable assistance to each other in obtaining exemption from withholding taxes where available under applicable Law, or recovering the same where an exemption is not available.

5.	INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

5.1 Patent Prosecution and Maintenance; Product Technical Information.

5.1.1 Prosecution and Maintenance of Licensed Patents.

(a) As between the Parties, Rosetta shall have the right and obligation, at its sole cost and expense (subject to Section 5.1.3), to conduct and control prosecution, maintenance, challenges against validity and unenforceability or patentability with respect to the Licensed Patents in the Prometheus Territory, or to cause its Upstream Licensors to do the same, to the extent that Rosetta has the right to do so under the applicable Upstream License Agreement (and if not Rosetta shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such rights pursuant to an amendment to such Upstream License Agreement). At Rosetta’s request, Prometheus shall reasonably cooperate with and assist Rosetta in connection with such activities.

(b) Rosetta shall not abandon, and, to the extent that Rosetta has the right to do so under the applicable Upstream License Agreement (and if not Rosetta shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such rights pursuant to an amendment to such Upstream License Agreement), shall not permit its Upstream Licensors to abandon (i) any Platform Patent in the Prometheus Territory, but only to the extent that, considering the Licensed Patents as a whole, such abandonment would materially reduce Prometheus’ ability to protect any Licensed Product from competition in the Prometheus Territory, or (ii) any of the Product Patents in the Prometheus Territory, without providing in each case reasonable prior written notice to Prometheus of such intention to surrender (which notice shall, in any event and to the extent Rosetta receives such notice from its applicable Upstream Licensor, be given no later than sixty (60) days prior to the loss of any rights in such Licensed Patent) and, to the extent permitted by any applicable Upstream License Agreement, providing Prometheus an opportunity to assume responsibility for the prosecution and maintenance of such Licensed Patent and obtain reimbursement from Rosetta for such payments in the amounts set forth in paragraph (d) below.

(c) If Prometheus reasonably believes that Rosetta or its Upstream Licensor may fail to make any required payments or take any action required for the preparation, filing, prosecution, defense or maintenance of any Upstream Licensed Patent in the Prometheus Territory within a reasonable time, but solely in cases where Prometheus would have the right to assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance pursuant to paragraph (b) above, Prometheus shall provide Rosetta with written notice of such deficiency. If, having received such notice, Rosetta or the Upstream Licensor fails to take the required action at least five (5) business days before the deadline for taking such action, Prometheus shall have the right (but with respect to Controlled Patents, solely to the extent that Rosetta has the right to do so under the applicable Upstream License Agreement, and if not Rosetta shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such rights pursuant to an amendment to such Upstream License Agreement) to thereafter make any such required payments or take any such required action and obtain reimbursement from Rosetta for such payments in the amounts set forth in paragraph (d) below

- 32 -

(d) In the event Prometheus elects to assume responsibility for any Licensed Patent in accordance with Section 5.1.1(b) or incurs any costs and expenses in accordance with Section 5.1.1(c), Rosetta shall reimburse Prometheus, within thirty (30) days after the date of a reasonably detailed invoice and back-up therefor provided by Prometheus: (i) [***] of Prometheus’ expenses associated with the prosecution and maintenance of any Platform Patents, and (ii) [***] of Prometheus’ expenses associated with the prosecution and maintenance of any Product Patents.

(e) The Parties acknowledge that it is not the intention of either Party for any Platform Patent to include any method of use claim directed to the use of microRNAs for any indication that is a target of a Diagnostic Test. In the event that an application for a Platform Patent nevertheless includes a method of use claim directed to the use of microRNAs for an indication that is a target of a Diagnostic Test, Rosetta shall promptly upon notice of the existence of such claim file a divisional application for such method of use and abandon the correlative claim in the Platform Patent application, provided that if such method of use claim is needed to preserve the viability of the Platform Patent application prior to a showing of the utility of a composition of matter therein, no such divisional or abandonment shall be required until such showing of utility is made.

5.1.2 Co-operation and Exchange of Information. Except to the extent restricted by any of the Upstream License Agreements, Rosetta shall (a) use counsel reasonably acceptable to Prometheus for the prosecution and maintenance of the Product Patents in the Prometheus Territory, (b) keep Prometheus reasonably informed as to the status of any of the Licensed Intellectual Property in the Prometheus Territory, (c) consider in good faith the reasonable requests, suggestions and advice of Prometheus with respect to the prosecution, maintenance and defense of the Licensed Patents in the Prometheus Territory, and (d) promptly provide Prometheus with copies of correspondence and materials (both received and filed from/with) the receiving office of any PCT application, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”) and/or other equivalent intellectual property regulatory authority within the Prometheus Territory to the extent they relate exclusively to the Licensed Patents.

5.1.3 Reimbursement of Rosetta’s Costs. Prometheus shall reimburse Rosetta for its prosecution and maintenance expenses for the Licensed Patents incurred prior to the Effective Date and during the Term as follows: [***]. Any payment due to Rosetta pursuant to this Section 5.1.3 for prosecution and maintenance expenses incurred prior to the Effective Date shall be due and payable by Prometheus within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Any payment due to Rosetta pursuant to this Section 5.1.3 for prosecution and maintenance expenses incurred during the Term shall be due and payable by Prometheus within thirty (30) days after the date of a reasonably detailed invoice and back-up therefor provided by Rosetta, provided Rosetta shall not invoice Prometheus more than once (1) per calendar quarter.

5.2 Infringement or Misappropriation of Licensed Intellectual Property.

5.2.1 Notice of Infringement by Third Parties. If either Party should become aware of any infringement or misappropriation or threatened infringement or misappropriation of the Licensed Intellectual Property by a Third Party, it shall promptly notify the other Party in writing and provide any information available to that Party relating to such alleged infringement.

- 33 -

5.2.2 Responsibility for Enforcement.

(a) Rosetta shall have the initial right (but not the obligation) to bring or control, at its own expense, any enforcement action directed to an alleged infringement or misappropriation of the Rosetta Owned Patents and/or the Rosetta Owned Technical Information by a product or service that competes with a Licensed Product in the Field in the Prometheus Territory, but shall consult Prometheus in good faith with regard to all significant decisions, including without limitation, joining Prometheus as a co-party (e.g., if Prometheus believes it will need to be joined in order for the party plaintiffs to have standing and/or a viable claim for lost profit damages).

(b) To the extent permitted by the applicable Upstream License Agreement, Rosetta shall have the initial right to bring or control, at its own expense, any enforcement action directed to an alleged infringement or misappropriation of the Upstream Licensed Patents and/or the Upstream Licensed Technical Information by a product or service that competes with a Licensed Product in the Field in the Prometheus Territory, but shall consult Prometheus in good faith with regard to all significant decisions, including without limitation, joining Prometheus as a co-party (e.g., if Prometheus believes it will need to be joined in order for the party plaintiffs to have standing and/or a viable claim for lost profit damages).

(c) In the event that the enforcement of any Upstream Licensed Patent and/or any Upstream Licensed Technical Information is the responsibility of the applicable Upstream Licensor pursuant to Upstream License Agreements or an enforcement action cannot be brought by Rosetta for lack of standing, Rosetta agrees that, to the maximum extent that Rosetta has the right to do so under the Upstream License Agreement (and if not permitted Rosetta shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such rights pursuant to an amendment to such Upstream License Agreement), Rosetta (i) shall cause such Upstream Licensor to bring or control, at such Upstream Licensor’s and/or Rosetta’s own expense, any enforcement action directed to an alleged infringement or misappropriation of the Upstream Licensed Patents and/or the Upstream Licensed Technical Information by a product or service that competes with a Licensed Product in the Field in the Prometheus Territory, (ii) shall consult Prometheus in good faith with regard to all significant decisions, including without limitation, joining Prometheus and/or Rosetta as co-parties, and (iii) shall not permit such Upstream Licensor to settle (or make any stipulation during) such enforcement action in a manner that would negatively affect Prometheus’ License without first obtaining Prometheus’ prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(d) In the event that Rosetta or an Upstream Licensor does not file suit against or commence and conclude settlement negotiations with the party responsible for an alleged infringement of any Licensed Intellectual Property within [***] days of receipt of a written demand from Prometheus that Rosetta and/or its Upstream Licensor bring suit, and it is determined by Prometheus after good faith consultation with Rosetta that a suit should be filed by Rosetta and/or the applicable Upstream Licensor, but Rosetta and/or the applicable Upstream Licensor does not file suit or commence settlement negotiations forthwith against the infringer, then Prometheus shall have the right, at [***] expense, to bring or control, at [***] expense, any enforcement action directed to the alleged infringement on behalf of itself, Rosetta, and/or the Upstream Licensor, to the extent permitted by the relevant Upstream License Agreement (and if not permitted Rosetta shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such rights pursuant to an amendment to such Upstream License Agreement).

- 34 -

5.2.3 Cooperation and Joinder.

(a) Prometheus shall reasonably cooperate in any enforcement action brought by Rosetta or an Upstream Licensor pursuant to Section 5.2.2(a), (b) or (c) above, and, as necessary (or requested by Prometheus), be permitted to join or be joined as a party therein, provided Rosetta or the Upstream Licensor, as applicable, agrees to reimburse Prometheus for all out-of-pocket costs, damages and expenses, (excluding reasonable attorneys’ fees unless the Parties are unable to utilize the same legal counsel due to an ethical conflict), that it may incur in connection with such assistance or joinder, including any award of costs against it.

(b) Rosetta shall reasonably cooperate in any enforcement brought by an Upstream Licensor pursuant to Section 5.2.2(c), and as necessary join or be joined as a party therein, provided the Upstream Licensor agrees to reimburse Rosetta for all out-of-pocket costs, damages and expenses, (excluding reasonable attorneys’ fees unless the Parties are unable to utilize the same legal counsel due to an ethical conflict), that it may incur in connection with such assistance or joinder, including any award of costs against it.

(c) Rosetta shall and shall cause the applicable Upstream Licensor to the extent permitted by the relevant Upstream License Agreement (and if not permitted Rosetta shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such rights pursuant to an amendment to such Upstream License Agreement) to reasonably cooperate in any enforcement brought by Prometheus pursuant to Section 5.2.2(d), and as necessary join or be joined as a party therein, provided Prometheus agrees to reimburse Rosetta for all out-of-pocket costs, damages and expenses, (excluding reasonable attorneys’ fees unless the Parties are unable to utilize the same legal counsel due to an ethical conflict), that it may incur in connection with such assistance or joinder, including any award of costs against it.

(d) Any costs, expenses or damages hereunder to be reimbursed by one Party to the other shall be paid by the owing Party within thirty (30) days of receipt of evidence that such costs, expenses or damages have been incurred.

5.2.4 Retention of Amounts Recovered. Except as otherwise required by the terms of any applicable Upstream License Agreements, any amount recovered in any action or suit brought in accordance with Section 5.2, whether by judgment or settlement, shall be applied as follows, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties:

(a) First, to reimburse the Parties for their respective costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred in prosecuting such infringement action;

(b) Second, if and to the extent lost sales are specifically determined by the adjudicating authority, to Prometheus in reimbursement for lost sales (net of royalties) associated with Products and to Rosetta in reimbursement for lost royalties owing hereunder based on such lost sales;

(c) Third, any amounts remaining shall be allocated [***] to the Party that controlled the prosecution of the infringement action and [***] to the non-controlling Party.

- 35 -

In the absence of any conflict of interest, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to utilize the same legal counsel. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Section 5.2.4 and the terms of any Upstream License Agreement, amounts recovered in any enforcement action or suit brought in accordance with Section 5.2 that pertain to the Upstream License Agreement shall be paid or retained in accordance with the terms of the applicable Upstream License Agreement.

5.2.5 Notification of Infringement by a Party. If the Exploitation of the Licensed Products results in a claim alleging Patent infringement against either Party (or its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party hereto in writing. As between the Parties, Prometheus shall have the initial right to defend and control the defense of any infringement claim pertaining primarily to infringement inside the Prometheus Territory, and Rosetta shall have the initial right to defend and control the defense of any infringement claim pertaining primarily to infringement outside the Prometheus Territory. Each Party (a) may use counsel of its own choice as applicable, and (b) shall keep the other Party informed of all material developments in connection with any such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the other Party (or its Affiliates or Sublicensees) is joined in any such action, then it shall have the right to defend such action and be represented by separate legal advisors.

5.2.6 Settlement. Without prejudice to the foregoing, neither Party shall settle or compromise any legal action referred to in Section 5.2 without the prior written consent of the other Party (not to be unreasonably withheld), provided that Rosetta shall not be required to obtain Prometheus’ consent to the settlement or compromise of an infringement claim or action subject to Section 5.2.5 to which Prometheus has not been joined and which pertains solely to infringement outside the Prometheus Territory.

5.3 Resolution of Potential Blocking Positions.

If a claim alleging Patent infringement arises that is subject to Section 5.2.5, or if the senior management of either Party become aware of a Third Party Patent that, if issued, is likely to provide a basis for such a claim in the Prometheus Territory (collectively, a “Potential Blocking Patent”), the following provisions shall apply:

5.3.1 To the extent such notice has not been provided pursuant to Section 5.2.5, the Party that first becomes aware of such Potential Blocking Patent shall provide written notice that such a situation may exist to the other Party, following which the Parties shall discuss and determine whether they wish to enter into a commonality of interest agreement and to conduct any further discussion through their respective US counsel before proceeding to discuss the Potential Blocking Patent.

5.3.2 The Parties shall enter into good faith discussions for a period of up to [***] with the objective of determining whether a license under the Potential Blocking Patent or a modification or redesign (hereinafter “modification”) to one or more of the Licensed Products is necessary for the Exploitation of one or more of the Licensed Products in the Prometheus Territory, taking into account considerations such as, without limitation, the time required to obtain a license versus the time required to modify the Licensed Product to make it non-infringing, and the cost of obtaining a license versus the cost of modifying the affected Licensed Product. During such [***] period, the Parties shall discuss and agree upon the appropriate parameters for obtaining such license and/or developing such modification, [***] (the “Third Party License Negotiation Period”) and develop such modification (the “Modification Development Period”) as well as the overall time limit for attempting both options should the first chosen option fail, provided that in no event shall such overall time period exceed [***] (the “Overall Time Period”). To the extent necessary, the parties shall discuss in good faith extending the term of any of the aforementioned periods for a reasonable duration to conclude any negotiations or development work than in progress.

- 36 -

(a) If the Parties agree that such a license or modification is necessary, the Parties shall immediately proceed as set forth in Section 5.3.3 below, without regard to Section 5.3.2(b).

(b) If the Parties fail to agree as to the necessity of such a license or modification, the Parties shall within five (5) business days after the conclusion of the foregoing [***] discussion period select a mutually acceptable Third Party neutral patent expert with expertise in patent damages and licensing (the “Expert”) to determine whether it is more likely than not that the patent would be infringed, where such standard is interpreted in accordance with standard jury instructions for United States Federal Courts in cases dealing with patent infringement, by the unlicensed Exploitation of the Licensed Product(s) in the Prometheus Territory. Prior to any substantive communications to the Expert, the Parties and the Expert shall enter into a suitable confidentiality agreement, and take measures to preserve to the maximum extent possible each Party’s legal privilege concerning the subject matter of the determination. The Expert will determine the procedures for his decision making, including procedures for presenting information to him and the Parties agree to provide to the Expert all information and documents that are requested. The Expert’s final decision shall be made no more than [***] after initiating the proceeding. If the Expert determines that it is more likely than not (applying the standard described above) that the Potential Blocking Patent would be infringed by the unlicensed Exploitation of the Licensed Product(s) in the Prometheus Territory, the Parties shall proceed as set forth below. If the Expert determines that it is not more likely than not that the Potential Blocking Patent would be infringed by the unlicensed Exploitation of the Licensed Product(s) in the Prometheus Territory, neither Party shall have any further obligation under the following subsections of this Section 5.3 solely with respect to the Potential Blocking Patent in question (without prejudice to any right of Prometheus to avail itself of Section 4.4.1(b)). The cost of the Expert shall be borne equally by the parties.

5.3.3 Prometheus shall within a reasonable time determine whether it wishes to avail itself of the royalty reductions available to it pursuant to Section 4.4.1(b), or to continue to proceed under this Section 5.3. Prometheus shall notify Rosetta in writing of such election, and any election to proceed under Section 4.4.1(b) shall discharge Rosetta of any further obligations under this Section 5.3 solely with respect to the Potential Blocking Patent in question.

5.3.4 If Prometheus elects to proceed under this Section 5.3 and the parties have agreed on Rosetta initially attempting to obtain a license over developing a modification (taking into account the discussions set forth in Section 5.3.2), Rosetta shall use best commercial endeavors to promptly obtain a license to the Potential Blocking Patent, [***]. Rosetta shall keep Prometheus reasonably informed as to the progress of Rosetta’s negotiations with the Third Party that owns or controls the Potential Blocking Patents. Prometheus shall not engage in any discussions or negotiations with such Third Party relating to the Potential Blocking Patent prior to the expiration of the Overall Time Period except (a) with Rosetta’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, and subject to a joint negotiation strategy, or (b) after giving written notice to Rosetta that Prometheus wishes to enter into sole negotiations with such Third Party and is electing to proceed under Section 4.4.1(b), which election to proceed under Section 4.4.1(b) shall discharge Rosetta of any further obligations under this Section 5.3 solely with respect to the Potential Blocking Patent in question. If Rosetta is unable, despite using best commercial endeavors, to obtain a license to the Potential Blocking Patent, and provided that there is still sufficient time to successfully modify the Licensed Product and obtain a non-infringement opinion from reputable outside patent counsel to the effect that the Licensed Product, as so modified, does not infringe the Potential Blocking Patent within the Overall Time Period, Rosetta may notify Prometheus, via a signed writing given to Prometheus no more than five (5) business days after the expiration of the Third Party License Negotiation Period (the “Plan B Notice”), that it desires to develop the necessary modifications in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.3.5.

- 37 -

5.3.5 If Prometheus elects to proceed under this Section 5.3 and either (a) the parties have agreed on developing a modification prior to first attempting to obtain a license (taking into account the discussions set forth in Section 5.3.2) or (b) Rosetta has properly provided Prometheus with a Plan B Notice, Rosetta shall promptly modify the affected Licensed Product and obtain a non-infringement opinion from reputable outside patent counsel to the effect that the Licensed Product, as so modified, does not infringe the Potential Blocking Patent prior to the expiration of the Modification Development Period and/or the Overall Time Period, which ever comes first. Prometheus shall reimburse [***] of the costs for developing such modification and obtaining such opinion upon successfully completion of the modification and obtainment of said non-infringement opinion. In return, Prometheus shall be entitled to reduce its royalty payments hereunder to Rosetta by [***] until Prometheus has recouped in full its contributions to such development costs, at which time no further reduction shall be available under this Section 5.3.5. If Rosetta is unable, despite using best commercial endeavors, to successfully modify the Licensed Product or to obtain a non-infringement opinion from reputable outside patent counsel to the effect that the Licensed Product, as so modified, does not infringe the Potential Blocking Patent within the Third Party License Negotiation Period within the Third Party License Negotiation Period, and provided that Rosetta has not provided Prometheus with a Plan B Notice and there is still sufficient time to successfully license the Potential Blocking Patent from a Third Party within the Overall Time Period, Rosetta may notify Prometheus, via a signed writing given to Prometheus no more than five (5) business days after the expiration of the Third Party License Negotiation Period (the “Plan C Notice”), that it desires to license the Potential Blocking Patent from a Third Party in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.3.4.

5.3.6 If Rosetta is unable, despite using best commercial endeavors to either modify the Licensed Product and obtain a non-infringement opinion from outside patent counsel to the effect that the Licensed Product, as so modified, does not infringe the Potential Blocking Patent or to obtain a license under the Potential Blocking Patent within the Overall Time Period, Rosetta shall so notify Prometheus in writing within five (5) business days after making such determination. [***]. Prometheus shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to minimize any such royalties to Third Parties.

5.3.7 If (a) Rosetta is unable to modify the Licensed Product and obtain a non-infringement opinion from outside patent counsel to the effect that the Licensed Product, as so modified, does not infringe the Potential Blocking Patent and neither Party is able to obtain a license under the Potential Blocking Patent within the Overall Time Period and (b) Prometheus stops selling, or its Board determines to stop selling, the affected Licensed Product (notice of which decision shall be promptly given to Rosetta), the Parties may mutually agree to terminate the license with respect to the affected Licensed Product(s), provided that prior to the effective date of such termination the parties shall negotiate a reasonable royalty (and if such royalty cannot timely be agreed upon by the parties, such royalty may be determined pursuant to the Dispute Resolution procedures set forth in Section 11) which Rosetta shall pay to Prometheus in connection with Rosetta’s or its Affiliates’ Exploitation of such Licensed Product(s) in the Prometheus Territory for a period of [***] subsequent to termination. For clarification purposes, unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties, Rosetta shall have no obligation to Exploit the Licensed Product in the Prometheus Territory. Upon the effective date of termination of such Licensed Product(s) Rosetta shall also reimburse Prometheus the development costs for such Licensed Product(s) which were actually paid to Rosetta pursuant to Section 3.2.4 (crediting to Prometheus any offsets actually taken thereunder), excluding any performance-based incentives. Development costs for development work that benefited more than one Licensed Product shall be reasonably apportioned between or among the applicable Licensed Products. In addition, if subsequent to the effective date of termination, Rosetta and/or any of its Affiliates license any Third Party the right to Exploit any Licensed Product(s) subject to this Section 5.3.7 in the Prometheus Territory, Prometheus shall receive [***] of all consideration (including, without limitation, all upfront fees, milestone fees and royalties, whether monetary or otherwise) received by Rosetta and/or its Affiliates but excluding investments in Rosetta made at fair market value, loans made at reasonable commercial terms and amounts paid for research funding under a written agreement with a research project and a budget.

6.1.4 Each Party shall procure that all its employees, contractors and licensees, who have access to any information of the other Party to which the obligations of clauses 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 as the case may be apply, shall be made aware of, subject to, and comply with the above obligations.

6.1.5 Rosetta shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to identify in writing any Rosetta Confidential Information disclosed by Rosetta to Prometheus that is proprietary to an Upstream Licensor. To the extent Rosetta properly identifies in writing at the time of disclosure to Prometheus the Upstream Licensor whose Confidential Information Rosetta is disclosing, and provided further that, Rosetta has also disclosed to Prometheus the applicable confidentiality terms and restrictions under Rosetta’s Upstream License Agreement, then the confidentiality terms of such Upstream License Agreement shall supersede the terms of this Section 6 with respect to Prometheus use and disclosure of such Upstream Licensor Confidential Information.

6.1.6 The obligations of confidentiality herein shall survive for a period of [***] following the date of expiration or termination of this Agreement, and shall apply to Rosetta Confidential Information and Prometheus Confidential Information exchanged between the Parties, both prior to and after entering into this Agreement. This Agreement supersedes the mutual confidentiality agreement between the Parties dated August 27, 2008 (the “Mutual Confidentiality Agreement”). All information exchanged between the Parties under the Mutual Confidentiality Agreement shall be deemed to have been disclosed under this Agreement on a going-forward basis and shall be subject to the terms of this Article 6 as of the Effective Date.

6.2 Publicity and Permitted Disclosures. Each of the following provisions of this Section 6.2 shall apply except as otherwise required by Law or court order or as otherwise permitted under this Agreement: Prometheus shall not use the name of any Upstream Licensor, or any variant thereof, in any promotional materials or other public announcement or disclosure without the prior written consent of such Upstream Licensor. All publicity, press releases and public announcements, in each case relating to the Licensed Products as licensed hereunder in the Prometheus Territory and/or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be reviewed in advance by, and shall be subject to the written approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) of both Parties; provided that such publicity, press releases and other public announcements shall not disclose any confidential information of the other Party hereunder and shall give appropriate attribution to the other Party’s role(s) in the project contemplated herein. Each Party shall provide the other Party an opportunity to review and comment on the language of such attribution prior to first use thereof in a press release or other public disclosure. Furthermore, each Party shall notify the other Party prior to the first public disclosure of any data generated by it, its Affiliates, Sublicensees or licensees (as applicable) relating to the Licensed Products in the Prometheus Territory, and shall provide the other Party an opportunity to review and comment on the language of such disclosure. Any information that is contained in an approved disclosure as described in the preceding sentences may be disclosed subsequently by either Party without the need to seek any further approval, subject to any restrictions that apply to the original disclosure. Prometheus hereby approves the Rosetta press release attached hereto as Annex H for release on or after the Effective Date. Either Party may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the terms and conditions hereof, without the prior written consent of the other Party, as may be required by applicable Law (including, without limitation, disclosure requirements of the SEC, NYSE, or any other stock exchange or NASDAQ), in which case the Party seeking to disclose the information shall give the other Party reasonable advance notice and review of any such disclosure and shall seek confidential treatment of such information to the extent possible under applicable Law. Furthermore, either Party may disclose the other Party’s Confidential Information, the existence of this Agreement and the terms and conditions hereof, to its legal advisers subject to a duty of confidentiality. Finally, either Party may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the terms and conditions hereof under a written confidentiality agreement to its Affiliates, actual and prospective investors, other financing sources, or acquirers, and in the case of Rosetta, the Upstream Licensors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party shall have the right to disclose such information to a Competitor of the other Party except if such Competitor is an acquirer or investor receiving at least [***] of the Party’s voting shares and either (a) the other Party has consented in writing to the disclosure to such Competitor, or (b) the disclosure is made to the Competitor after the full execution (but not necessarily after the closing) of a definitive agreement for such acquisition or investment. Prometheus may disclose Rosetta’s Confidential Information to its Sublicensees solely on a need-to-know basis subject to Section 2.2.1. Rosetta may disclose to its other actual or prospective licensees Section 3.3.3 (Prometheus Product Improvements) of this Agreement and the definitions of terms used therein in connection with Rosetta’s negotiation or enforcement of reciprocal obligations and rights relating to Improvements on the part of such other actual or prospective licensees.

8.2 Indemnification by Prometheus. Prometheus shall indemnify and hold harmless Rosetta and its Affiliates, and the Upstream Licensors and each of their respective employees, officers, directors and agents (each a “Rosetta Indemnitee”) from and against (a) any and all Losses finally awarded to a Third Party by a court of competent jurisdiction or finally imposed by any government agency that result from any Claim made or bought against an Rosetta Indemnitee by or on behalf of such Third Party or such government agency, and (b) subject to Section 8.3, any Litigation Costs incurred by an Rosetta Indemnitee while investigating or conducting the defense of such Claim, in any such case (a) and (b), solely to the extent such Claim is based on or arises out of (i) the breach by Prometheus of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement; or (i) the Exploitation of the Licensed Products by Prometheus, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees; provided, however, that such indemnification right shall not apply to any Claims, Losses or Litigation Costs (x) to the extent directly attributable to the negligence, reckless misconduct, or intentional misconduct of an Rosetta Indemnitee or Rosetta’s breach of this Agreement, (y) for which Rosetta is obligated to indemnify Prometheus under Section 8.1, or (z) based on or arising out of a breach of any Upstream License Agreement or any indemnification claim by an Upstream Licensor to the extent that such breach or indemnification claim did not arise from a Prometheus Indemnitee’s breach of Section 2.5 (Compliance with Upstream License Agreements) or any requirements binding on sublicensees under an Upstream License Agreement arising after the Effective Date and accepted by Prometheus pursuant to Section 2.6.

- 45 -

8.3 Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by a party seeking indemnification under this Section 8 (an “Indemnitee”) of notice of any pending or threatened Claim against it, such Indemnitee shall give written notice thereof to the Party from whom the Indemnitee is entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to this Section 8 (the “Indemnifying Party”); provided that the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any Indemnitee hereunder, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Claim and, to the extent that it elects within ten (10) business days of its receipt of notice of the Claim from the Indemnitee, to assume control of the defense of such Claim (unless (i) the Indemnifying Party is also a party to such proceeding and the Indemnifying Party has asserted a cross claim against the Indemnitee or a court has otherwise determined that such that joint representation would be inappropriate, or (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnitee of its financial capacity to defend the Indemnitee in such Proceeding) with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnitee for any Litigation Costs subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information and assistance as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request with regard to the Claim. No compromise or settlement of any Claim may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnitee’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless (a) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnitee, (b) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party, and (c) the Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement are not restricted by such compromise or settlement.

8.4 Insurance. Each of Rosetta and Prometheus shall have and maintain such type and amounts of liability insurance covering its activities under this Agreement as is normal and customary in the clinical laboratory industry generally for parties similarly situated. Each Party shall, upon request of the other Party, provide the requesting Party with a copy of the foregoing policies of insurance, along with any amendments and revisions thereto.

9.	TERM AND TERMINATION

9.1 Term. The term of this Agreement shall begin upon the Effective Date and shall continue through the date upon which the last Valid Claim covering a Licensed Product expires, or solely with respect to Royalty-Bearing Technical Information, such additional duration as is required by the applicable Upstream License Agreement (the “Term”).

9.2 Termination of Agreement for Breach. Either Party may terminate this Agreement and the License for material breach of this Agreement by the other Party by giving sixty (60) days’ written notice to the breaching Party (specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such termination) and such breaching Party has not cured such breach within such sixty (60) day period, except in the case of a payment default as to which the breaching Party shall have only a thirty (30) day notice and cure period. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limitation, any material breach by either Party of its diligence obligations under Section 3.2 to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts, Prometheus’ material breach of its payment obligations under Section 4, Rosetta’s material breach of its Limited Exclusive license grant under Section 2.1, and Prometheus’ material breach of its diligence obligations under Section 3.4.3, shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement for the purposes of this Section 9.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any material breach relates to one or more Licensed Products but not all of the Licensed Products then the non-breaching party shall only be permitted to terminate this Agreement on a product-by-product basis with the rights and obligations with respect to unaffected Licensed Products remaining in full force and effect, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to terminate the Mesothelioma Test and the Squamous Test together if the material breach related to either one.

- 46 -

9.3 Termination of Agreement for Insolvency. A Party may terminate this Agreement and the License upon the occurrence of one or more of the following:

9.3.1 immediately upon written notice to the other Party in the event that the other Party initiates a voluntary proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy code; or

9.3.2 immediately upon written notice to the other Party in the event that the other Party becomes the subject of an involuntary proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy code and such proceeding is not dismissed or stayed within ninety (90) days of its commencement.

9.4 Termination of Agreement for Convenience by Prometheus. Prometheus may terminate this Agreement upon not less than [***] written notice to Rosetta in its entirety or as to one or more of the Licensed Products only, provided that any termination as to the Mesothelioma Test shall be deemed also to be a termination as to the Squamous Test, and vice versa. Upon notice by Prometheus of its intent to terminate, Prometheus shall work with Rosetta in good faith to avoid devaluing the Licensed Products during such notice period and to complete any work in progress during such time but Prometheus shall not be obligated to make material expenditures during such notice period.

9.5 Termination for Challenge to Licensed Patents. This Agreement, and all licenses granted to Prometheus hereunder, may be terminated by Rosetta on [***] prior written notice (or with respect to any Upstream Licensed Patent, any shorter period to the extent required under its Upstream License Agreements) in the event that Prometheus or a Prometheus Affiliate directly or indirectly opposes or disputes, or willingly (e.g., it shall not be deemed willing if Prometheus is required to participate in an opposition pursuant to a subpoena or court order or a proceeding is otherwise initiated by the United States Patent and Trademark office other than at the instigation of Prometheus, and not by Prometheus) assists any Third Party to oppose or dispute, the validity or enforceability of any of the Licensed Patents in a court of competent jurisdiction or in proceedings before the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any other national patent office or supra-national patent authority established pursuant to international treaty, including under the auspices of the European Union, provided that (and with respect to any Upstream Licensed Patent, to the extent such an exception is consistent with the applicable Upstream License Agreement) an Upstream Licensor, Rosetta, its Affiliates and/or any of its licensees have not asserted such Licensed Patents against Prometheus.

- 47 -

9.6 Procedure upon Termination or Expiration of Agreement. Termination shall not relieve either Party of any obligations which have accrued prior to the effective date of such termination. In the case of any breach of the terms of the License, a decision not to terminate does not reduce or eliminate any recourse otherwise available to either Party. Upon the natural expiration or any termination of this Agreement by Rosetta pursuant to Section 9.2, 9.3, or 9.5, or by Prometheus pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.4, all rights under the License and any license to Rosetta Improvements granted to Prometheus or its Affiliates hereunder shall automatically terminate and revert to Rosetta. Upon any termination of this Agreement by Prometheus pursuant to 9.3, or the occurrence of any event set forth therein regardless of termination by Prometheus, in addition to any other rights or remedies Prometheus may have at law or in equity for breach, all rights and licenses herein granted to Prometheus in any Licensed Patents shall be irrevocable and shall continue in full force and effect in perpetuity, subject to Prometheus’s payment of all amounts due hereunder, as if this Agreement remained in full force and effect, into the bankruptcy estate or as otherwise directed by a competent legal authority having jurisdiction over such matters. The Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement are fair and reasonable and have been negotiated in an arms-length transaction between unrelated parties with each Party represented by legal counsel. If any provision herein is deemed onerous or otherwise unenforceable by any applicable bankruptcy court, the Parties shall use good faith efforts to amend the Agreement (e.g., removing such onerous provision) so as to avoid any consequences thereof under applicable bankruptcy laws.

9.6.1 Upon termination of this Agreement or a Licensed Product by Prometheus for any reason, Prometheus and its Affiliates and Sublicensees shall have the non-exclusive right to continue to supply the terminated Licensed Products within its Control for a period not to exceed [***] from the date of notice of termination. In addition, upon the termination of this Agreement by Prometheus pursuant to Section 9.4 or by Rosetta pursuant to Section 9.2, Prometheus shall xxxxx Xxxxxxx an exclusive license under and transfer to Rosetta all Prometheus owned rights in the Licensed Products, the Regulatory Filings and Regulatory Approvals (and provide prompt written notice to the applicable Regulatory Authorities of such transfers), any domain names registered to Prometheus or its Affiliates and utilized exclusively in connection with the Licensed Products and not in connection with Prometheus’ and/or its Affiliates’ other products or services, and any Prometheus (or its Affiliates) owned trademarks or trademarks licensed from Third Parties to Prometheus or its Affiliates and utilized exclusively in connection with the Licensed Products and not in connection with Prometheus’ and/or its Affiliates’ other products or services. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith fair and reasonable license and transfer fees for the foregoing, provided that if the Parties are unable to negotiate such financial terms and execute an addendum or agreement with respect thereto, a fair market value shall be determined pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions set forth in Section 11.

9.7 Survival. Except as expressly provided herein, Articles and Sections 5.3.7, 6 (Confidential Information), 8 (Indemnification), 9.6 (Procedure Upon Termination or Expiration of Agreement), 10 (Limitation of Liability), 11 (Dispute Resolution), 12.7 (Injunctive Relief), 12.8 (Notices) and 12.14 (Applicability of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code), all definitions used in any of the foregoing articles or sections, and any accrued rights to payment shall survive any expiration or early termination of this Agreement.

10.	LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO ANY INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION OWED WITH RESPECT TO A THIRD PARTY LOSS, A BREACH OF ARTICLE 6 (CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION) OR INFRINGEMENT OF A PARTY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE (NOR SHALL ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE) TO THE OTHER PARTY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES OR ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE LICENSED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR TO THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OR ANY LIMITED REMEDY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT APPLY TO ANY THIRD-PARTY CLAIM THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF SECTION 9, TO THE EXTENT SUCH THIRD PARTY HAS BEEN AWARDED SUCH DAMAGES.

- 48 -

11.	DISPUTE RESOLUTION

11.1 Informal Resolution. Subject to Section 12.7, in the event of any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, or alleged breach of this Agreement (the “Dispute”), prior to instituting any arbitration on account of such Dispute, the Parties shall attempt in good faith to settle such Dispute first by negotiation and consultation between themselves, including referral of such Dispute to the Chief Executive Officer of Prometheus and the Chief Executive Officer of Rosetta. In the event said executives are unable to resolve such Dispute or agree upon a mechanism to resolve such Dispute within thirty (30) days of the first written request for dispute resolution under this Section 11.1, then the Parties shall resolve all such Disputes in accordance with Section 11.2.

11.2 Arbitration. Subject to Section 12.7, if any Dispute has not been resolved by good faith negotiations between the Parties pursuant to Section 11.1 above, then the Parties shall settle the Dispute by submitting the matter to binding arbitration in accordance with Rules of the International Chamber of Commerce.

11.3 Escrow. In the event that any Dispute in excess of [***] is not resolved by the Chief Executive Officers within thirty (30) days after submission of the Dispute to the Executive Officers, and either Party initiates arbitration pursuant to Section 11.2, Prometheus shall have the obligation to pay into an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) with a mutually acceptable, reputable commercial bank in the USA (the “Escrow Agent”) the amount of royalties are other amounts allegedly owed hereunder which Prometheus withheld as set-off for Prometheus’ reasonably claimed monetary damages in accordance with Section 12.2, subject to the following conditions:

11.3.1 The Parties shall split all costs relating to the Escrow Account, including setting up and maintaining the Escrow Account, provided that, the arbitrator shall have the right to award the costs relating to the Escrow Account to the Party prevailing in such arbitration.

11.3.2 All amounts paid into the Escrow Account in excess of any damages awarded to Prometheus shall be paid by the Escrow Agent promptly to Rosetta upon proof of determination of the Dispute, with interest on such amount calculated from the date such royalties were due at the lower of either [***] per year or the maximum amount permitted by applicable Law.

- 49 -

11.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, excluding that body of law known as conflicts of law.

12.	MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Unenforceability. Both Parties hereby expressly state that it is the intention of neither Party to violate any Law. If any of the provisions of this Agreement are held to be void or unenforceable, then the Parties shall use good faith efforts for a period of no more than ten (10) business days to replace such void or unenforceable provisions with valid and enforceable provisions which will achieve as far as possible the economic business intentions of the Parties, failing which, such void or unenforceable provisions shall be deemed to be severed from this Agreement without replacement.

12.2 Compliance with Law. Each Party shall comply with and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to ensure that its and its Affiliates’ and sublicensees’ respective employees, agents, clinical institutions and clinical investigators comply with all applicable Laws in carrying out its rights and obligations under this Agreement.

12.3 No Waiver. The failure by either Party to take any action or assert any right hereunder shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such right, nor in any way be deemed to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof, or the right of a Party to thereafter enforce each and every provision of this Agreement.

12.4 Drafting; Fairness of Agreement. This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one Party than the other because it may have been drafted by one of the Parties or its counsel, each Party having contributed through its counsel substantially and materially to the negotiation and drafting thereof pursuant to an arms-length negotiation. Furthermore, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the terms and conditions set forth herein and the rights, obligations and consideration afforded to each of the Parties, are fair and reasonable, are not excessively onerous to one Party or the other and are not materially outside the scope of what can reasonably considered market terms.

12.5 Assignment. This Agreement and the Parties’ rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable except with the prior written consent of the other Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except that either Party shall have the right to assign this Agreement or its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the other Party’s prior written consent to any of its Affiliates, successors in interest or acquiror of all or substantially all of its assets relating to the Licensed Intellectual Property and the Licensed Products, including any successor in interest by way of any merger, consolidation, reincorporation or other reorganization; provided that such Affiliate, successor in interest or acquiror assumes all of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement (a “Permitted Successor”). In addition, Rosetta covenants and agrees that it shall not assign, without Prometheus’ consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, any of the Licensed Intellectual Property to any Third Party other than to a Permitted Successor.

12.6 Relationship of the Parties.

Rosetta Press Release

Prometheus and Rosetta Genomics Announce License and Collaboration Agreement

MicroRNA-based Molecular Diagnostics to Xxxx Prometheus’ Entry into Oncology Market; Rosetta to Receive Milestones and Research and Development Funding plus Future Royalties

San Diego, Philadelphia and Rehovot, Israel, April 13, 2009 (tentative) – Prometheus Laboratories Inc., a specialty pharmaceutical and diagnostic company, and Rosetta Genomics Ltd. (Nasdaq: ROSG), an innovative molecular diagnostic company, today announced the execution of a license and collaboration agreement under which Rosetta shall grant Prometheus U.S. rights to three recently introduced, microRNA-based cancer diagnostic tests: miRview™ mets, miRview™ squamous and miRview™ meso.

The terms of the license agreement provide for payments to Rosetta, either as milestones or research and development funding, as well as royalty payments on net sales in the U.S. Under the terms of a separate stock purchase agreement, Prometheus will also make an equity investment in Rosetta of $8 million at $4.00 per ordinary share, representing an approximate 41% premium over the closing price of Rosetta stock over three business days. The license and collaboration agreement and the stock purchase agreement are expected to close before the end of April 2009 and are subject to customary closing conditions.

In addition, Prometheus and Rosetta have agreed to collaborate to develop two new microRNA-based gastroenterology tests, which may result in additional, success-based milestones and royalty payments to Rosetta. Funding for development of these gastroenterology tests will be provided by Prometheus.

“Prometheus has established its position as a leader in the gastroenterology market by building an integrated portfolio of diagnostic and pharmaceutical products as well as a highly trained and efficient sales force,” said Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, President and Chief Executive Officer of Prometheus. “Leveraging our core strengths, we intend to apply this business model to oncology, where there is an unmet need to guide the use of a growing number of targeted therapies. We believe these three molecular diagnostic tests can help oncologists personalize therapy and are ideally suited to lead our entry into the oncology market, while complementing our emerging internal oncology diagnostics program.”

“We believe that with this agreement Rosetta has proven the great commercial value of its first three products, and has established itself as a leader in the development of novel, molecular diagnostic products based on microRNAs. We are delighted to enter into this comprehensive partnership with Prometheus,” said Xxxx Xxxxxx, President and Chief Executive Officer of Rosetta Genomics. “With Prometheus these tests now will be available across the U.S., and will be supported by an organization with a proven ability in diagnostic testing services and in launching new products.”

About miRview™ mets

miRview™ mets is designed to accurately identify the primary tumor site in patients presenting with metastatic cancer, as well as in patients whose tumor has not been identified and consequently has been labeled Cancer of Unknown Primary (CUP). As metastases need to be treated according to their primary origin, accurate identification of the primary origin is critical for determining optimal treatment, enabling better patient outcomes. Current diagnostic methods to identify the origin of a metastasis include a range of costly, time-consuming and at times inefficient tests. miRview™ mets offers physicians a fast, accurate and easy-to-interpret diagnosis of the predicted primary origin.

About miRview™ squamous

Using a single microRNA, miRview™ squamous is designed to differentiate squamous from non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). When administered targeted therapy, whether currently available or under development, patients with differing histology, i.e. squamous or non-squamous NSCLC, have demonstrated histologic-specific response patterns ranging from a high incidence of severe or fatal bleeding in the lungs to poor response to treatment. Current methods for differentiating squamous from non-squamous NSCLC are not standardized, are difficult to reproduce and can have low accuracy. miRview™ squamous produces a single objective measure that indicates whether a sample is squamous or non-squamous NSCLC.

About miRview™ meso

miRview™ meso leverages microRNA’s high-specificity biomarkers to differentiate mesothelioma, a cancer connected to asbestos exposure, from other carcinomas in the lung and pleura, a medically and legally important differential diagnosis. As mesothelioma patients require specific treatment regimens, an accurate diagnosis is critical. Currently there is no single diagnostic test that is conclusive for this differentiation. In addition, pathological diagnosis may suffer from significant inter-observer variability, and in the absence of a single specific and reliable marker, mesothelioma can be difficult to identify from other cancers. miRview™ meso is a highly accurate test that may also assist physicians in ruling out mesothelioma in patients diagnosed with adenocarcinoma in the lung who have been exposed to mesothelioma-related substances, primarily asbestos particles and heavy metals.

About MicroRNA

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are recently discovered, naturally occurring, small RNAs that act as master regulators and have the potential to form the basis for a new class of diagnostics and therapeutics. Since many diseases are caused by the abnormal activity of proteins, the ability to selectively regulate protein activity through microRNAs could provide the means to treat a wide range of human diseases. In addition, microRNAs have been shown to have different expression in various pathological conditions. As a result, these differences may provide for a novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategy for many diseases.

About Rosetta Genomics

Rosetta Genomics is a leading molecular diagnostics company committed to develop and commercialize products based on microRNAs for targeted therapy and preventive medicine. Rosetta developed a unique methodology to find microRNAs in body fluids and other clinical samples, and discovered in the past few years hundreds of novel microRNAs that can be used as important biomarkers and drug targets. Rosetta performs its commercial molecular diagnostics tests at Rosetta Laboratories in Philadelphia. Building on its strong intellectual property position and proprietary platform technologies, Rosetta is working on the application of these technologies in the development of novel molecular diagnostics products.

About Prometheus

Prometheus Laboratories Inc. is a specialty pharmaceutical and diagnostic company committed to developing and commercializing novel pharmaceutical and diagnostic products to help physicians individualize patient care. Prometheus is a leader in applying the principles of personalized medicine to the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases and intends to apply these principles to oncology. Its strategy includes the marketing and delivery of pharmaceutical products complemented by proprietary, high-value diagnostic testing services. By integrating pharmaceutical products and diagnostic testing services, Prometheus believes it can address the full continuum of care, thereby providing physicians with a comprehensive solution to treat chronic diseases. Prometheus’ corporate offices are located in San Diego.

Rosetta Forward-Looking Statements

Various statements in this release concerning Rosetta’s future expectations, plans and prospects, including without limitation, statements regarding the parties’ ability to consummate the transactions, relating to the role of microRNAs in human physiology and disease, the potential of microRNAs in the diagnosis and treatment of disease, the potential for milestone, royalty and other payments under the collaboration with Prometheus, and the potential development of two new microRNA-based gastroenterology tests, constitute forward-looking statements for the purposes of the safe harbor provisions under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including risks related to: Rosetta’s approach to discover microRNA technology and to work on the application of this technology in the development of novel diagnostics and therapeutic tools, which is unproven and may never lead to commercially accepted products or services; Rosetta’s ability to obtain, maintain and protect its intellectual property; Rosetta’s ability to enforce its patents against infringers and to defend its patent portfolio against challenges from third parties; Rosetta’s need and ability to obtain additional funding to support its business activities; Rosetta’s dependence on third parties for development, manufacture, marketing, sales and distribution of products; Rosetta’s ability to successfully develop its candidate tools, products and services; Rosetta’s ability to obtain regulatory clearances or approvals that may be required for its products and services; the ability to obtain coverage and adequate payment from health insurers for the products and services comprising Rosetta’s technology; competition from others using technology similar to Rosetta’s and others developing products for similar uses; Rosetta’s dependence on collaborators; and Rosetta’s short operating history; as well as those risks more fully discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of Rosetta’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2007 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
