4. REGULATORY MATTERS.
4.1 Transfer of Data and Regulatory Materials. The JDC shall determine the content and manner
for sharing data and Regulatory Materials between the Parties. The lead Party for regulatory
activities with respect to a particular Collaboration Product in a particular country (such Party,
the “Lead Regulatory Party”), as provided in Section 4.3, shall provide the other Party with copies
of the IND and of such other Regulatory Materials Controlled by the Lead Regulatory Party, in each
case with respect to Collaboration Products. Specifically, within [ * ] after the Signing
Date, Trubion shall provide Facet with a copy of all TRU-016 related Regulatory Materials
in the form then existing, generated as of the Signing Date and Controlled by Trubion. The
non-Lead Regulatory Party shall have the right, without any additional consideration, to use any
and all such data and reports supplied by the Lead Regulatory Party under this Section 4.1 in
connection with the Development and/or Commercialization of any Collaboration Products or Royalty
Products in the Field, in the Territory in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including
the incorporation of such data or reports in any regulatory submissions.
4.2 Ownership of Regulatory Dossier. The Lead Regulatory Party will own all regulatory
filings for each Collaboration Product in each country where such Party is the Lead Regulatory
Party in order to facilitate such Party’s interactions with Regulatory Authorities in such country
with respect to each such Collaboration Product. Trubion, as initial Lead Regulatory Party for
TRU-016 in the Unites States, will initially own all Regulatory Materials for [ * ] in the [ * ],

decision to change the Lead Regulatory Party or the delivery of a Pursuit Notice or a deemed
Pursuit Notice if the Lead Regulatory Party has exercised or has been deemed to have exercised its
Opt-Out Option pursuant to Article 7, Section 8.5 or Section 14.2(b), the former Lead Regulatory
Party shall transfer and assign to the other Party (and the other Party hereby agrees to receive
from the former Lead Regulatory Party) all of the former Lead Regulatory Party’s right, title and
interest to the applicable regulatory filings.
4.3 Lead Regulatory Party. The Parties intend that each Development Plan shall set forth the
regulatory strategy approved by the JSC for the applicable Collaboration Product. The JSC shall
select the Lead Regulatory Party for each Collaboration Product, provided that Trubion shall be the
initial Lead Regulatory Party for TRU-016 in the United States and the JSC may change the Lead
Regulatory Party for any Collaboration Product at any time. The Lead Regulatory Party shall be
responsible for the implementation of such strategy in the applicable country. The Lead Regulatory
Party shall comply with applicable Laws and other regulatory obligations related to the submission
and maintenance of any Regulatory Materials for Regulatory Approval of a Collaboration Product, in
the Field, in the applicable country(ies) of the Territory. The Party that is not the Lead
Regulatory Party shall have a participatory role in all material regulatory activities that would
have a potential impact on Collaboration Products in the relevant country, including all
interactions with Regulatory Authorities. All material regulatory decisions (including the content
of any regulatory filing or dossier, pharmacovigilance reports, patient risk management strategies
and plans, Product Labeling and safety) will be made by the JSC and implemented by the Lead
Regulatory Party. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the decision to [ * ] any
[ * ] for a [ * ] must be the result of consensus by the JSC or, in the event that the JSC is
unable to reach consensus with respect to such a [ * ] decision

and the matter is submitted to the Parties’ Executive Officers pursuant to Section 2.7(b), the
unanimous agreement of the Executive Officers pursuant to Section 2.7(c) to [ * ] such [ * ]. If
the Executive Officers are unable to reach consensus on any such matter within the applicable [ * ]
period, then the JSC will be deemed to have decided not to [ * ] such [ * ]. In no event will a
dispute regarding whether to [ * ] a [ * ] for a [ * ] be resolved through arbitration under
Article 15.
4.4 Regulatory Filings.
(a) The Lead Regulatory Party shall prepare, for timely review by the JDC, all IND and BLA

give the other Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in such meetings, conferences and
discussions). The other Party shall be entitled to be present at, and to participate in, all such
meetings, conferences or discussions. Facet’s and Trubion’s respective members of the JDC shall
use reasonable efforts to agree in advance on the scheduling of such meetings and on the objectives
to be accomplished at such meetings, conferences, and discussions and the agenda for the meetings,
conferences, and discussions with the Regulatory Authority. The Lead Regulatory Party shall
reasonably attempt to include the other Party in any unscheduled, ad-hoc meetings, conferences and

4.7 Common Database. If deemed appropriate by the JDC, the Parties will establish a common
database to be controlled, maintained and administered by the Party designated by the JDC for the
receipt, investigation, recordation, communication, and exchange (as between the Parties) of data
arising from Clinical Trials for Collaboration Products. The Parties shall agree upon guidelines
and procedures for such common database that shall be in accordance with, and enable the Parties to
fulfill their reporting obligations under applicable Law. Furthermore, such guidelines and
procedures shall be consistent with relevant International Council for Harmonisation (“ICH”)
guidelines. The Parties’ costs incurred in connection with receiving, investigating, recording,
reviewing, communicating, and exchanging such data shall be included as an element of Development
Costs or as Commercialization Costs, as applicable, calculated on a FTE cost (calculated at the FTE
Rate) and direct out-of-pocket cost basis.
4.8 Rights of Reference. Each Party shall have the right to cross reference, file or
incorporate by reference any regulatory filing or drug master file (as defined in 21 C.F.R.

contained therein) for any Collaboration Product, or any component thereof, made in any country in
the Territory (including all Regulatory Approvals) in order to support regulatory filings that such
Party is permitted to make under this Agreement for any Collaboration Product or Royalty Product
and to enable either Party to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement to Develop, Manufacture
or Commercialize in the Territory any such Collaboration Product or Royalty Product. Each Party

such agreement and to allow for assignment of such agreement, or, if such agreement also applies to
products that are not Products, assignment of all rights and obligations to the extent related to
such Product, in each case from Trubion to Facet without consent from such Third Party
manufacturer.
6.2 Pre-Clinical and Clinical Supply. The Lead Manufacturing Party with respect to a
particular Collaboration Product shall, by itself or through its Third Party contract
manufacturers, timely supply all quantities of such Collaboration Product agreed upon by the JDC as
required by the Parties to carry out all Development activities (pre-clinical and clinical) for
such Collaboration Product pursuant to the Development Plan. Such quantities of Collaboration
Product, and the schedule for such supply, shall be confirmed and if necessary updated by the JDC
in a manner consistent with the Development Plan. Such supply shall be considered a Development
Cost and charged on an accrual basis; provided that any [ * ] of [ * ] of the [ * ] shall [ * ] as

agreement, (iv) ensuring that in the event of the exercise or deemed exercise of an Opt-Out Option
by a Party, the remaining Party shall be the sole obligor pursuant to such Third Party Agreement,
(v) providing that the Parties shall have joint rights and obligations under the agreement with
respect to Collaboration Product, but that one Party shall be designated as the “principal party”
under such agreement, (v) providing both Parties with the right to audit and inspect such Third
Party’s facilities on at least [ * ], which efforts shall be coordinated between the Parties in the

sharing of any and all information under and the terms and conditions of such agreement between the
Parties. The Lead Manufacturing Party shall be responsible for negotiating the terms of such
agreement, with the other Party having consultation and review rights on the terms of such Third
Party agreement.
6.5 Commercial Supply Agreement. Unless a Party has already exercised its Opt-Out Option or
is deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out Option under Section 14.2(b), at least [ * ] prior to the
anticipated commercial launch of a Collaboration Product, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith
and enter into a manufacturing and supply agreement (the “Commercial Supply Agreement”) governing
the commercial supply of such Collaboration Product. Such Commercial Supply Agreement shall contain
customary terms governing such manufacturing and supply relationships, but shall in any event
provide as follows:
(a) Collaboration Product (i) shall meet the agreed specification, then-current GMP and be
manufactured in accordance with applicable Laws including prohibitions on adulteration and
misbranding, (ii) shall be supplied by or on behalf of the Lead Manufacturing Party in a timely
manner consistent with established and agreed manufacturing and delivery schedules; and (iii) shall
be supplied at a cost equal to the Manufacturing Cost of such Collaboration Product.
(b) Upon a material and uncured breach by the Lead Manufacturing Party of its supply
obligations, the other Party shall have the right to obtain the transfer and the Lead Manufacturing
Party shall have the obligation to (i) effect such transfer [ * ] to the other Party, without undue

assignment of any Third Party manufacturing agreement in each case as reasonably necessary to
enable the other Party to Manufacture or have Manufactured Collaboration Product in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, provided, however, that the Lead Manufacturing Party shall be required
to assign any such agreement solely to the extent assignment is permitted by such agreement,
provided that the Lead Manufacturing Party uses Diligent Efforts to obtain any consent necessary
for such assignment, and the Lead Manufacturing Party is not required to pay any consideration or
commence litigation in order to effect an assignment of any such agreement to the other Party. In
the event the Lead Manufacturing Party exercises or is deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out Option
pursuant to Article 7, Section 8.5 or Section 14.2(b), then Sections 7.5(b)(iii) and 7.5(b)(x)
shall apply.
(c) The Manufacturing Costs of commercial supplies of Collaboration Product as well as the
duty, freight, postage, shipping, transportation, insurance, warehousing and handling charges
actually allowed or paid with regard to such Collaboration Product shall be included in the
calculation of cost of goods sold as part of Commercialization Costs.
6.6 Facility Audits. The JDC shall propose and submit to the JSC for approval a schedule for
periodic audit and inspection of the facilities of any Third Party contract manufacturer on at
least an annual basis subject to the terms of any applicable existing contract with a Third Party
contract manufacturer. Pursuant to the schedule approved by the JSC, or upon request of the JDC,
the Lead Manufacturing Party shall conduct an inspection or audit of the facilities of such Third
Party contract manufacturers. The Lead Manufacturing Party shall provide not less than [ * ]
notice to the other Party of any planned inspection and such other Party shall be permitted to
participate in any audit, provided that, if the consent of the Third Party contract manufacturer is
required under the applicable contract to allow such other Party to participate in such audit, the
Lead Manufacturing Party shall use Diligent Efforts to obtain such consent. Any inspection or audit
requested by the JDC (other than pursuant to the schedule approved by the JSC) shall be conducted
no more frequently than [ * ] at a given facility, and shall occur as promptly as possible
following written notice by the JDC of its desire for such inspection or audit, but in no event
shall such inspection commence later than [ * ] thereafter (unless such audit is triggered by a
material safety or GMP non-conformance issue, in which case the audit may be conducted as
frequently as necessary and the maximum notice period shall be [ * ] if permitted under the
applicable contract). Costs associated with auditing shall be Development Costs or
Commercialization Costs as applicable.
6.7 Quality Agreement. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith and enter into a quality
agreement governing the quality control, quality assurance and validation of the commercial and
clinical supply of Bulk API and Product.
7. OPT-OUT.
7.1 General. Each Party shall have the right to opt-out of all of its rights and obligations
to Co-Develop and Co-Commercialize any Collaboration Product pursuant to Sections 7.2 and 7.3 below
(an “Opt-Out Option”). In addition, each Party may also exercise its Opt-Out Option pursuant to
Section 8.5, and may be deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out Option pursuant to Section 14.2(b).
The Opt-Out Party may exercise its Opt-Out Option pursuant

43
to Sections 7.2, 7.3 or 8.5 by providing a written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the
Non-Opt-Out Party.
7.2 Opt-Out Option. Each Party may, on a Product-by-Product basis, exercise its Opt-Out
Option with respect to any Collaboration Product by providing an Opt-Out Notice to the other Party
during one of the following periods: (a) the period beginning with the [ * ] for such Collaboration
Product and ending [ * ] later; (b) the period beginning with the [ * ] for such Collaboration
Product and ending [ * ] later. In addition, Trubion may, on a Product-by-Product basis, exercise
its Opt-Out Option with respect to any Collaboration Product by providing an Opt-Out Notice to
Facet at any time after [ * ] after the [ * ] and prior to the [ * ] for such Collaboration
Product. Each such Opt-Out Notice shall identify the Collaboration Product for which the Opt-Out
Party is exercising the Opt-Out Option (the “Opt-Out Product”). If a Party is deemed to have
exercised its Opt-Out Option pursuant to Section 14.2(b), all Collaboration Products shall be
deemed Opt-Out Products and Royalty Products.
7.3 Opt-Out Option Following Change of Control. If either Party (the “Acquired Party”)
experiences a Change of Control, it shall inform the other Party within [ * ] following the
effectiveness of such Change of Control and it shall use Diligent Efforts to arrange for the
acquiring entity to discuss with the other Party the acquiring entity’s (a) intentions with respect
to the Development and Commercialization of the Collaboration Products and (b) contemplated
proposals for amending the Development Plan and, if applicable, Commercialization Plan for each
Collaboration Product, and the other Party may exercise its Opt-Out Option with respect to all
Collaboration Products by providing an Opt-Out Notice to the Acquired Party or its successor in
interest within [ * ] of such Change of Control and all Collaboration Products shall become Opt-Out
Products on the Opt-Out Effective Date.
7.4 Opt-Out Effective Date. An Opt-Out Option shall become effective [ * ] after the
Non-Opt-Out Party’s receipt of such Opt-Out Notice (the “Opt-Out Effective Date”). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if a Party, after uncured material breach, is deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out
Option pursuant to Section 14.2(b), then both the date of the Opt-Out Notice and the Opt-Out
Effective Date for such Opt-Out Option shall be deemed to be the date on which the other Party
provides the notice under Section 14.2(b) to continue this Agreement and all Collaboration Products
shall become Royalty Products on such date.
7.5 Consequences of Opt-Out.
(a) The Opt-Out Party’s obligations and rights to Co-Develop and Co-Commercialize a particular
Opt-Out Product shall terminate upon the applicable Opt-Out Effective Date, and the Opt-Out Party
shall have no liability for Development Costs or Commercialization Costs incurred by the
Non-Opt-Out Party in respect of the Opt-Out Product(s) following the Opt-Out Effective Date,
provided, however, that the Opt-Out Party shall remain liable for its share of (i) [ * ] for all [
* ] for the [ * ] that were [ * ] to the [ * ] to the extent that such [ * ] for such [ * ] by [ *
] the [ * ] therefor in the [ * ] that was [ * ] on the [ * ], (ii) all other [ * ] and all [ * ]

extent provided in Section [ * ].
(b) The Non-Opt-Out Party may, in its sole discretion, elect to continue the Development and
Commercialization of the Opt-Out Product by notice (the “Pursuit Notice”) to the Opt-Out Party. If
the [ * ] does not [ * ] a [ * ] with respect to [ * ] within [ * ] following the [ * ] of the [ *
], the [ * ] shall not [ * ] to [ * ] the [ * ] and [ * ] of the [ * ] and the [ * ] to the [ * ]
shall [ * ] with respect to that [ * ]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Party is deemed to have
exercised its Opt-Out Option pursuant to Section 14.2(b), then the Non-Opt-Out Party shall be
deemed to have provided a Pursuit Notice to the Opt-Out-Party by providing a written notice of
continuation of the Agreement pursuant to Section 14.2(b). If the Non-Opt-Out Party delivers a
Pursuit Notice with respect to an Opt-Out Product [ * ] such [ * ] or is deemed to have delivered
such Pursuit Notice, such Opt-Out Product shall become a Royalty Product, and:
(i) the Non-Opt-Out Party shall be solely responsible, at its sole cost and expense (except
for those costs for which the Opt-Out Party remains responsible pursuant to Section 7.5(a)) for the
Development of such Royalty Product, the preparation and filing of Regulatory Materials for such
Royalty Product, the receipt of Regulatory Approval for such Royalty Product, and the
Commercialization of such Royalty Product, in each case in the Field in the Territory. The
Non-Opt-Out Party shall use Diligent Efforts to Develop and obtain Regulatory Approval for Royalty
Products and to Commercialize such Royalty Products in the Field in the Major Market Countries;
(ii) the Non-Opt-Out Party will inform the Opt-Out Party of the status of the Non-Opt-Out
Party’s Development and Commercialization of Royalty Products through [ * ] progress reports
submitted in writing to the Opt-Out Party, provided that if the Opt-Out Party remains responsible
for the costs of any [ * ] pursuant to Section 7.5(a), the Non-Opt-Out Party shall additionally
provide [ * ] reports and invoices with respect to such [ * ];
(iii) the Opt-Out Party shall provide reasonable consultation and assistance during a period
of [ * ] following the Opt-Out Party’s receipt of the Pursuit Notice or written notice of
continuation of the Agreement pursuant to Section 14.2(b), (“Transition Assistance”) for the
purpose of transferring or transitioning to the Non-Opt-Out Party, (i) all Facet Applied Know-How
or Trubion Know-How, as applicable, which is reasonably necessary for the continued Development,
Manufacture or Commercialization of the Royalty Product not already in the Non-Opt-Out Party’s
possession in the form and format in which such Know-How is maintained by the Opt-Out Party or its
Affiliate or subcontractor in the ordinary course of business, and (ii) at the Non-Opt-Out Party’s
request, the Opt-Out Party shall use Diligent Efforts to assign to the Non-Opt-Out Party all
then-existing Third Party agreements that relate solely to the Royalty Product, in the Territory,
in the Field and are reasonably necessary for the Non-Opt-Out Party to continue researching,
Developing, Manufacturing, or Commercializing such Royalty Product in the Territory, in the Field;
provided, however, that the Opt-Out Party shall be required to assign any such agreement solely to
the extent assignment is permitted by such agreement provided that the Opt-Out Party uses Diligent
Efforts to obtain any consent necessary for such assignment, and the Opt-Out Party is not required
to pay any consideration or commence litigation in order to effect an assignment of any such
agreement to the Non-Opt-Out Party;

(iv) the Opt-Out Party shall transfer and assign to the Non-Opt-Out Party, in the form and
format in which such materials are maintained by the Opt-Out-Party in the ordinary course of
business, all Regulatory Materials for such Royalty Product, in the Territory, in the Field, that
are Controlled by the Opt-Out-Party or its Affiliates or permitted sublicensees; the Non-Opt-Out
Party shall have the right, without any additional consideration, to use any and all such data and
reports supplied by the Lead Regulatory Party under this Section 7.5(b)(iv) or pursuant to Section
4.1 in connection with the Development, Manufacture and/or Commercialization of such Royalty
Product in the Field, in the Territory in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including
the incorporation of such data or reports in any regulatory submissions; and the Opt-Out Party’s
rights to participate in regulatory activities and meetings shall terminate;
(v) all Committees except the JPC shall cease to have any rights, obligations or
decision-making capabilities with respect to such Royalty Product and, if there are no
Collaboration Products still being pursued at such time, shall disband until such time, if ever,
that a Collaboration Product is being pursued. All decisions that were made by such Committees
under this Agreement with respect to the Royalty Product prior to the Opt-Out Effective Date shall
thereafter be made solely by the Non-Opt-Out Party consistent with such Party’s obligations under
Section 7.5(b)(i). The JPC shall continue subject to Section 10.3 unless a Party has exercised or
is deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out Option in respect of all Collaboration Products, in which
case all decisions that were made by the JPC prior to the Opt-Out Effective Date shall be made
solely by the Non-Opt-Out Party consistent with such Party’s obligations under Section 7.5(b)(i);
(vi) if the Opt-Out Party is the Lead Manufacturing Party of the Royalty Product(s), as part
of and during the period of the Transition Assistance (1) the Non-Opt-Out Party shall have the
right to require the Opt-Out Party to continue supplying Bulk API and finished Product for such
Royalty Product(s) under the terms of Article 6 for a period of up to eighteen (18) months

of the Opt-Out Option), and (2) the Non-Opt-Out Party shall have the right to obtain transfer, and
the Opt-Out-Party shall have the obligation to effect transfer, without undue delay, of any and all
manufacturing technology included in the Facet Applied Know-How or Trubion Know-How, as applicable,
that is reasonably necessary to enable the Non-Opt-Out Party to Manufacture, or have Manufactured
such Royalty Product(s). The Non-Opt-Out Party automatically owns one-half (1/2) of any or all of
the inventory in existence as of the Opt-Out Effective Date of Bulk API and/or finished Product for
such Royalty Product (such inventory, the “Existing Inventory”). In addition, the Non-Opt-Out
Party shall have the right to purchase the other half of the Existing Inventory from the Opt-Out
Party by reimbursing the Opt-Out Party for the Manufacturing Costs with respect to such Existing
Inventory. The Non-Opt-Out Party shall notify the Opt-Out Party within [ * ] after the Effective
Opt-Out Date whether the Non-Opt-Out Party elects to exercise such right to purchase the other half
of the Existing Inventory;
(vii) the Opt-Out Party shall, as promptly as commercially practicable, assign to the
Non-Opt-Out Party all right, title and interest in and to the Marks owned by the Opt-Out Party that
were used or intended to be used with the Royalty Products (excluding any

its Affiliates or permitted sublicensees), including any goodwill associated therewith. For the
avoidance of doubt, only those Marks that have been (A) identified as the single designated lead
candidate Xxxx for a non-commercialized Royalty Product, or (B) actually used in connection with a
Commercialized Royalty Product, shall be assigned. The Non-Opt-Out Party shall be responsible for
recording such assignment in the Territory with the appropriate Governmental Authority and will
bear all costs associated with such assignment and recordation. The Opt-Out Party shall cooperate
in facilitating such assignment and recordation by timely executing all necessary documents
provided to it by the Non-Opt-Out Party;
(viii) in lieu of the Product Profit payments it would have received if the Opt-Out Party had
not exercised its Opt-Out Option or the Opt-Out Party had not been deemed to have exercised its
Opt-Out Option under Section 14.2(b) with respect to such Royalty Product, the Opt-Out Party shall
receive from the Non-Opt-Out Party royalties on the Net Sales of the Royalty Product(s) as provided
for under Section 9.5;
(ix) the Opt-Out Party shall use Diligent Efforts to effect the assignment or the granting of
a sublicense or equivalent right of access to the Non-Opt-Out Party, whether through novation or
sublicensing of such contracts or otherwise, of any and all rights under any contract between the
Opt-Out Party and any Third Party that are reasonably necessary for the Non-Opt-Out Party to
continue with Development or Commercialization of such Royalty Product, and the Non-Opt-Out Party
shall reasonably cooperate in connection therewith, provided that if such assignment, novation or
sublicense is not permissible, the Parties shall discuss in good faith potential alternatives that
would enable the Non-Opt-Out Party to exercise at the Non-Opt-Out Party’s expense (on a
pass-through basis) the rights and perform the obligations of the Opt-Out Party under such
contracts with respect to such Royalty Product while minimizing the continuing obligations of the
Opt-Out Party under such contract with respect to such Royalty Product, and, unless the Non-Opt-Out
Party informs the Opt-Out Party in writing that it is [ * ] in [ * ] such [ * ] and [ * ] such [ *
] or it is [ * ] for the [ * ] to [ * ], the Opt-Out Party shall [ * ] such [ * ] in [ * ] for the

subject to Sections 3.5(a) and 3.5(b), to subcontractors or consultants to perform such
Party’s assigned Development, Manufacturing or Commercialization responsibilities under this
Agreement with respect to Collaboration Products, further provided that (A) such Party remains
responsible for the work allocated to, and payment to, such subcontractors and consultants to the
same extent it would if it were doing such work itself, (B) such sublicense shall be subject and
subordinate to, and consistent with, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (C) such
sublicense shall not in any way diminish, reduce or eliminate any of such Party’s obligations under
this Agreement, and (D) such Party uses Diligent Efforts to include in such sublicense agreement a
provision which permits such Party to provide a copy of such sublicense agreement to the other
Party, which copy may be redacted to exclude confidential information not related to the applicable
Collaboration Product. Unless prohibited by the terms of the sublicense, such Party shall provide
the other Party with a copy of each such sublicense agreement entered into after the Signing Date
within [ * ] after the execution thereof, which agreement may be redacted to exclude confidential
information not related to the applicable Collaboration Product.
(b) Joint Sublicense. The Parties acknowledge that they may, upon mutual agreement, both
grant sublicenses to a Third Party with respect to a particular Collaboration Product, including
with respect to a particular country or indication.
(c) Upon Opt-Out. At any time after its delivery or deemed delivery of a Pursuit Notice with
respect to a particular Royalty Product, the Non-Opt-Out Party may grant to one or more Third
Parties sublicenses of some or all of the rights granted to it under Section 8.1 or 8.2(b), as
applicable, but only with respect to such Royalty Product; provided that the Non-Opt-Out Party
shall execute a written agreement with each such permitted sublicensee, which sublicense (i) shall
be subject and subordinate to, and consistent with, the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
(ii) shall not in any way diminish, reduce or eliminate any of the Non-Opt-Out Party’s obligations
under this Agreement, (iii) shall require each such permitted sublicensee to comply with all
applicable terms of this Agreement, including to keep books and records, and (iv) shall permit the
Non-Opt-Out Party to audit (either directly or through an independent auditor) such books and
records. The Non-Opt-Out Party shall provide the Opt-Out Party with a copy of each such sublicense
agreement within [ * ] after the execution thereof. Such copy may be redacted to exclude
confidential, non-Royalty Product-related information and financial information (other than such
financial information that is necessary for assessing the obligations to the Opt-Out Party under
this Agreement). Upon the Opt-Out Party’s request and at the Opt-Out Party’s expense, the
Non-Opt-Out Party shall exercise its right to conduct an audit of a sublicensee’s books and records
pertaining to the sale of the applicable Royalty Product under any such sublicense agreement at the
next time that conducting such an audit is permissible under such sublicense agreement. The
Non-Opt-Out Party shall provide the Opt-Out Party with a copy of the report of the findings made in
any such audit. If such audit reveals that such sublicensee has understated its Net Sales by [ * ]
or more, the Non-Opt-Out Party shall be responsible for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of the
Opt-Out Party in conducting the audit. The Non-Opt-Out Party shall remain responsible for its
obligations hereunder and for the performance of its sublicensees (including, without limitation,
making all payments due to the Opt-Out Party by reason of any Net Sales of Royalty Product), and
shall ensure that any such sublicensees comply with all relevant provisions of this Agreement. In
the event of any uncured material breach by any sublicensee under a sublicense agreement that would
constitute a material breach of the Non-Opt-Out Party’s obligations under this Agreement, the
Non-Opt-Out Party

will promptly inform the Opt-Out Party in writing and shall take such action which in the
Non-Opt-Out Party’s reasonable business judgment will address such default; provided, however, any
such uncured material breach by such sublicensee of an obligation that would constitute a material
breach of the Non-Opt-Out Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed an uncured
material breach of the Non-Opt-Out Party hereunder unless the Non-Opt-Out Party cures such material
breach within the time provided under Section 14.2.
8.4 No Implied Rights. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Party shall be
deemed by estoppel or implication to have granted the other Party any license or other right with
respect to any intellectual property of such Party.
8.5 Exclusivity. Except for the Development and Commercialization of Products pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, during the Term neither Party shall Develop or Commercialize any protein
therapeutic, including any [ * ], that binds to the CD37 Antigen (or a [ * ]) [ * ] of [ * ] and
wherein such protein therapeutic is [ * ] or [ * ] to [ * ] its [ * ] through [ * ] the [ * ] (or a
[ * ]) (a “Competing Program”). In the event that, due to a Change of Control of a Party, such
Party, or its successor in interest, is conducting a Competing Program during the Term of this
Agreement, then such Party, or its successor in interest, shall either (a) exercise its Opt-Out
Option with respect to all Collaboration Products by providing an Opt-Out Notice to the other
Party; or (b) divest such Competing Program to a Third Party, in each case within [ * ] of such
Change of Control.
8.6 [ * ]. Each Party shall promptly bring to the attention of the JSC (or the other Party if
there is no JSC in place at the time) any [ * ] that such Party wishes to Develop and Commercialize
during the Term. Upon the recommendation of the JSC (or the mutual agreement of the Parties if
there is no JSC in place at the time), the Parties shall negotiate in good faith an agreement to
Develop and Commercialize such [ * ] on commercially reasonable terms.
8.7 Third Party Licenses. If the JPC determines that it is advisable or necessary to obtain a
license (“Future Third Party License”) to any intellectual property right that is owned or
controlled by a Third Party and is reasonably necessary or useful to the Development, Manufacture,
or Commercialization of a Collaboration Product, the JPC shall so advise the JSC. If the JSC
determines to seek a license, the JSC shall designate a Party to negotiate the terms on which such
a Third Party license would be granted and to serve as the primary point of contact with the
applicable Third Party licensor following the execution of the license agreement. Upon approval of
the terms of such Future Third Party License by the JSC, the designated Party may execute such
Future Third Party License and any payments that become due pursuant to a Future Third Party
License agreement executed pursuant to this Section 8.7 will be treated as Development Costs or
Commercialization Costs, as applicable, if incurred prior to the Opt-Out Effective Date or after
the Opt-Out Effective Date but with respect to a Collaboration Product. If a Party delivers or is
deemed to have delivered a Pursuit Notice for a Collaboration Product, any payments arising under a
Future Third Party License from the Development, Manufacturing or Commercialization of the
applicable Royalty Product shall be paid by such Non-Opt-Out Party, subject to Section 9.5(e)(iii).

9. CONSIDERATION.
9.1 Upfront Payment. Facet shall pay to Trubion Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000.00)
within ten (10) days after the Signing Date, which payment shall be non-refundable and
non-creditable.
9.2 Equity Investment. Facet and Trubion have entered into the Stock Purchase Agreement
attached hereto as Exhibit C, pursuant to which Facet will purchase from Trubion and
Trubion will sell to Facet Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) of newly issued shares of common
stock of Trubion at a purchase price per share equal to One Hundred Thirty-Five Percent (135%) of
the average closing price of a share of common stock of Trubion over the sixty (60) trading days
prior to the Signing Date provided that such purchase price (including the 35% premium) shall not
be greater than $[ * ]/share or lower than $[ * ]/share of common stock of Trubion.
9.3 Development Milestone Payments. Facet shall make milestone payments (each a “Milestone
Payment”) to Trubion based on the first achievement of each milestone event in the Field, in the
Territory for each Product as set forth in this Section 9.3. No Milestone Payment shall be made
twice with respect to the same Product. For the purposes of this Section 9.3, two Products are
deemed the “same Product” if one Product contains, as its active pharmaceutical ingredient, (i) the
same [ * ] or [ * ] that is [ * ] in the [ * ], (ii) a [ * ] that is a [ * ] or [ * ] form of the [
* ] or [ * ] that is [ * ] in the [ * ] or (iii) a [ * ] that is a [ * ] or [ * ] form of a [ * ]
or [ * ] from which the [ * ] in the [ * ] was [ * ] or [ * ]. Facet shall pay to Trubion the
amounts set forth below, within [ * ] after the first achievement of the corresponding milestone
event with respect to the Product. Each Milestone Payment is non-refundable and non-creditable
against any other payments due hereunder, provided that if the Development of a Product is
abandoned, any Milestone Payments made with respect to such abandoned Product may be credited
against the corresponding Milestone Payments payable on a Product which achieves such milestones
after the abandonment of the other Product. For the purposes of this Section 9.3, the “[ * ]” of a
Clinical Trial shall occur upon the [ * ] of the [ * ] in such [ * ], “[ * ]” and “[ * ]” shall be
[ * ] by the [ * ] in advance with respect to such [ * ] in the [ * ] or, following [ * ] for the
applicable [ * ], [ * ] by the [ * ] in advance with respect to such [ * ] in [ * ] for the [ * ].
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Trubion is deemed pursuant to
Section 14.2(b) to have exercised its Opt-Out Option with respect to all Products on account of an
uncured material breach by Trubion, the amount of the milestone payments due pursuant to this
Section 9.3 with respect to milestone events achieved by all Products after Facet has provided
Trubion with written notice of continuation in accordance with Section 14.2(b) shall be reduced by
[ * ].

9.4 Sharing of Product Profit.
(a) Allocation. Facet and Trubion shall share equally in Product Profit (which, for the
avoidance of doubt, includes sharing of losses in a given period if the calculation of Product
Profit for such period is negative) arising from the sale of each Collaboration Product in the
Field in the Territory.
(b) FTE Records and Calculations. Each Party shall record its FTE effort for the
Commercialization of each Collaboration Product to the extent that such FTE efforts are included in
Commercialization Costs that are, or may in the future be, shared under this Agreement, and shall
report such FTE effort to the JCC, on a Calendar Quarterly basis, in each case in a manner that
allocates such FTE effort to the extent practicable to each applicable Collaboration Product.
Except to the extent provided herein, each Party shall calculate and maintain records of FTE effort
incurred by it in the same manner as used for other products commercialized by such Party in
accordance with a methodology approved by the JSC. The JFC shall facilitate any reporting
hereunder.
(c) Commercialization Costs Accounts. Each Party shall charge all Commercialization Costs as
incurred by it or its Affiliates on its books and records in connection with each Commercialization
Plan. Each Party shall provide the other Party with an interim quarterly report of monthly
estimates for the current Calendar Quarter charges within [ * ] after the end of the second
calendar month in each Calendar Quarter.

52
(d) Other Expenses. Any expenses incurred by a Party for Commercialization activities that do
not fall within the definitions of Commercialization Costs shall be borne solely by such Party
unless the JSC determines otherwise. In addition, each Party shall bear all costs incurred pursuant
to the Commercialization Plan, that exceed the portion of the Commercialization Budget allocated to
the Party with respect to the relevant Calendar Quarter by more than [ * ] unless otherwise
approved by the JSC.
(e) Pre-existing Obligations. Unless otherwise determined by the JSC, any manufacturing
obligations in existence prior to the Signing Date, such as manufacturing capacity reservation or
other obligations described in Section 6.3, other than those disclosed in writing by the obligated
Party prior to the Signing Date and specifically agreed upon by the Parties, will not be considered
Commercialization Costs and will not be subject to expense sharing.
(f) Reporting. Within [ * ] after the end of each Calendar Quarter, commencing with the first
Calendar Quarter in which the Parties are implementing a Commercialization Plan for a particular
Collaboration Product, each Party shall report to the JCC and the JFC its gross sales and
Commercialization Costs for such Collaboration Product in the Territory. In addition, each Party
shall provide the JCC and the JFC with a monthly statement on a Product-by-Product and
country-by-country basis of the amount of gross sales of Collaboration Products.
(g) Payment. Within [ * ] after receipt of such reports, the JFC shall provide for such
Collaboration Product a consolidated financial statement setting forth the Product Profit for such
Collaboration Product and calculating each Party’s fifty percent (50%) share of such Product
Profit. Thereafter the following remittance obligations shall apply for such Collaboration Product
depending on whether such Product Profit is positive or negative:
(i) If there is positive Product Profit for such Calendar Quarter, then one Party shall make a
payment to the other Party within [ * ] following delivery of the financial statement referenced
above in an amount that will cause each Party to have received an equal share of the Product Profit
for such Calendar Quarter.
(ii) If there is negative Product Profit for such Calendar Quarter, then one Party shall make
a payment to the other Party so that each Party will bear an equal share of the Product Profit for
such Calendar Quarter. Such payment shall be made within [ * ] following delivery of the financial
statement referenced above.
(h) Records. Each Party shall keep detailed records of the Commercialization Costs it incurs,
including all supporting documentation for such expenses, and remits for payment. Each Party shall
keep such records for at least [ * ] after the date that such expense was incurred.

(e) Reduced Royalty Rate.
(i) If a Royalty Product is generating Net Sales in a country during the applicable Royalty
Period at a time when there is no Valid Claim covering such Royalty Product in such country of sale

applicable to Net Sales of such Royalty Product in such country shall be reduced by [ * ] percent
([ * ]%) of the applicable royalty rate set forth in Section 9.5(a)-(d).
(ii) If a Royalty Product is generating Net Sales in a country during the applicable Royalty

(g) Cumulative Royalties. The obligation to pay royalties under Section 9.5 shall be imposed
only once with respect to a single unit of a Royalty Product, regardless of how many Valid Claims
included within the Trubion Patent Rights, or Facet Applied Patent Rights would, but for this
Agreement, be infringed by the Manufacture, use, import, offer for sale or sale of such Royalty
Product in the countr(y)ies in the Territory of such Manufacture, use or sale.

notify the receiving Party of such requirement, (b) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount
required to be deducted or withheld promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or
withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed against the

Agreement on or before the date such payment is due, as provided in this Agreement, such late
payment shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, at the [ * ] as [ * ] from
time to time [ * ], effective for the first date on which payment was delinquent and calculated on

which they were generated.
(b) Audits. Upon thirty (30) days prior written notice, a Party (the “Auditing Party”) may
conduct and the other Party (the “Audited Party”) shall permit an independent certified public
accounting firm of nationally recognized standing selected by the Auditing Party and reasonably
acceptable to the Audited Party, to examine, at the Auditing Party’s sole expense, the relevant
books and records of the Audited Party as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of (a)
reports for Development Costs, (b) Manufacturing Costs, (c) Commercialization Costs and (d) the
reports submitted by the Audited Party in accordance with this Agreement in connection with the
payment of royalties and other amounts hereunder. An examination by the Auditing Party under this
Section 9.9(b) shall occur not more than once in any Calendar Year and shall be limited to the
pertinent books and records for any Calendar Year ending not more than [ * ] before the date of the
request. The accounting firm shall be provided access to such books and records at the Audited
Party’s facility(ies) where such books and records are normally kept and such examination shall be
conducted during the Audited Party’s normal business hours. The Audited Party may require the
accounting firm to sign a standard non-disclosure agreement before providing the accounting firm
access to the Audited Party’s facilities or records. Upon completion of the audit, the accounting
firm shall provide both the Audited Party and the Auditing Party a written report disclosing
whether the reports submitted by the Audited Party are correct or incorrect, whether the amounts
paid are correct or incorrect, and in each case, the specific details concerning any discrepancies.
No other information shall be provided to the Auditing Party.
(c) Underpayments/Overpayments. If such accounting firm concludes that additional royalties
or other payments were due to the Auditing Party, the Audited Party shall pay to the Auditing Party
the additional amounts within [ * ] of the date the Audited Party receives such accountant’s
written report so concluding. If an underpayment exceeds [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the amounts
that were to be paid to the Auditing Party, the Audited Party also shall reimburse the Auditing
Party for all costs and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in conducting the audit. If
such accounting firm concludes that the Audited Party overpaid the Auditing Party, the Auditing
Party, within [ * ] of the date the Auditing Party receives such account’s report so concluding,
will refund such overpayments to the Audited Party less the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred
by the Auditing Party in conducting the audit.
(d) Confidentiality. All financial information of the Audited Party with respect to a Royalty
Product which is subject to review under this Section 9.9 shall be deemed to be the Audited Party’s
Confidential Information subject to the provisions of Article 11, and the Auditing Party shall not
disclose such Confidential Information to any Third Party or use such Confidential Information for
any purpose other than verifying payments to be made by the Audited Party with respect to such
Royalty Product; provided, however, that such Confidential Information may be disclosed by the
Auditing Party to Third Parties only to the extent necessary to enforce the Auditing Party’s rights
under this Agreement. All financial information of the Audited Party with respect to a
Collaboration Product which is subject to review under this

Section 9.9 shall be deemed to be the Confidential Information of both Parties subject to the
provisions of Article
(e) Consolidation. In the event that a Party is, in the opinion of its independent registered
accounting firm, reasonably required to consolidate or otherwise report in the financial statements
of such Party (the “Consolidating Party”), all or a portion of the financial performance of the
other Party (the “Consolidated Party”) for any financial reporting periods, then the Consolidating
Party shall promptly notify the Consolidated Party of such determination in writing, and the
Consolidated Party agrees to cooperate and promptly provide reasonable access to its books and
records in order for the Consolidating Party to fulfill its financial reporting obligations.
10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
10.1 Ownership of Collaboration Inventions.
(a) The JPC shall, within a reasonable time after the Signing Date, establish and oversee a
mutually agreeable procedure for (i) identifying and disclosing all inventions and Know-How
generated by one or both Parties, their Affiliates or their respective employees, agents, or
independent contractors in the course of conducting activities under this Agreement (“Collaboration
Inventions”); and (ii) determining inventorship of each such Collaboration Invention, provided that
such determination shall be made in accordance with United States patent laws.
(b) Each Party shall solely own all Collaboration Inventions invented solely by its and/or its
Affiliates’ respective employees, agents and/or independent contractors.
(c) All Collaboration Inventions invented jointly by one or more employees, agents, or
independent contractors of Trubion and/or its Affiliates and one or more employees, agents, or
independent contractors of Facet and/or its Affiliates (collectively, “Joint Inventions”) shall be
owned jointly by the Parties in accordance with joint ownership interests of co-inventors under
United States patent laws (that is, each Party shall have full rights to license, assign and
exploit such Joint Inventions (and any patents arising therefrom) anywhere in the world, without
any requirement of gaining the consent of, or accounting to, the other Party), subject to the
licenses granted herein and subject to any other intellectual property held by such other Party.
(d) This Agreement is intended by the Parties to be entered into pursuant to 35 U.S.C. 103(c),
as such section may be amended from time to time. For clarity, Collaboration Inventions are
intended by the Parties to be subject to 35 U.S.C. 103(c)(1) and this Agreement is intended by the
Parties to be deemed a “joint research agreement” as defined in 35 U.S.C. 103(c)(3), as such
sections may be amended from time to time.
10.2 Disclosure of Inventions. Each Party shall promptly disclose to the JPC all

10.3 Prosecution of Patents.
(a) Trubion Core Patent Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.3, as between
the Parties, Trubion shall have the sole right and authority to prepare, file, prosecute (including
any oppositions, interferences, reissue proceedings, reexaminations and post-grant proceedings) and
maintain the Trubion Core Patent Rights in any jurisdiction in the Territory, provided that
decisions regarding any claims within the Trubion Core Patent Rights that claim the [ * ] or [ * ]
of [ * ] or [ * ] in the [ * ] and do not claim the [ * ] or [ * ] of [ * ] that is [ * ] shall be
made by the JPC. Trubion shall provide Facet (i) a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on
such filing and prosecution efforts regarding the Trubion Core Patent Rights in the Territory; (ii)
a copy of each material communication received from any patent authority in the Territory regarding
the Trubion Core Patent Rights, and (iii) drafts of any material filings or material responses to
be made to such patent authorities a reasonable amount of time in advance of submitting such
filings or responses. If Trubion determines in its sole discretion to abandon, cease prosecution or
not maintain any Trubion Core Patent Right anywhere in the Territory, then Trubion shall provide
Facet written notice of such determination at least [ * ] before any deadline for taking action to
avoid abandonment (or other loss of rights) and shall provide Facet with the opportunity to
prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Trubion Core Patent Right in the affected countries of
the Territory on behalf of Trubion. If Facet desires Trubion to file, in a particular jurisdiction
in the Territory, a Trubion Core Patent Right that claims priority to (or is based on the subject
matter of) another Trubion Core Patent Right, Facet shall provide written notice to Trubion
requesting that Trubion file such patent application in such jurisdiction. If Facet provides such
written notice to Trubion, Trubion shall either (i) file and prosecute such patent application and
maintain any patent issuing thereon in such jurisdiction, or (ii) notify Facet that Trubion does
not desire to file such patent application and provide Facet with the opportunity to file and
prosecute such patent application and maintain any patent issuing thereon on behalf of Trubion.
Facet’s rights under this Section 10.3 with respect to any Trubion Core Patent Right licensed to
Trubion by a Third Party shall be subject to the rights of such Third Party to file, prosecute,
and/or maintain such Trubion Core Patent Right. Facet shall be responsible for [ * ] percent ([ *
]%) of the out-of-pocket costs incurred by Trubion in the course of preparing, filing, prosecuting
and maintaining the Trubion Core Patent Rights and such costs shall not be included in Development
Costs or Commercialization Costs. If Facet provides written notice to Trubion that Facet is no
longer interested in maintaining a license to a particular Trubion Core Patent Right in a
particular country, Facet will not be responsible for any portion of the costs incurred by Trubion
after the date of such notice in connection with the preparation, filing, prosecution or
maintenance of such Trubion Core Patent Right in such country, and the license granted to Facet
under such Trubion Core Patent Right in such country shall terminate upon the delivery of such
notice. If Facet assumes responsibility for any Trubion Core Patent Rights, then all costs
incurred by Facet in the course of preparing, filing, prosecuting and maintaining such Trubion Core
Patent Rights shall be borne by Facet, without reimbursement by Trubion, and such costs shall not
be included in Development Costs or Commercialization Costs. If Trubion has exercised or is deemed
to have exercised its Opt-Out Option in respect of all Products under this Agreement pursuant to
Section 7.2
, 7.3, 8.5 or 14.2(b), following the Opt-Out Effective Date, all costs incurred by
Trubion in the course of preparing, filing, prosecuting and maintaining the Trubion Core Patent
Rights shall be borne solely by Trubion. If Facet has exercised or is deemed to have exercised its
Opt-Out Option in respect of all Products under this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2, 7.3, 8.5 or
14.2(b),

following the Opt-Out Effective Date, all costs incurred by Trubion in the course of
preparing, filing, prosecuting and maintaining the Trubion Core Patent Rights shall be borne solely
by Trubion and Facet shall not have any rights pursuant to this Section 10.3(a) with respect to the
Trubion Core Patent Rights; provided, however, if Facet notifies Trubion in writing within [ * ]
following the Opt-Out Effective Date, with respect to one or more Trubion Core Patent Rights, that
Facet will continue to be responsible for [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the out-of-pocket costs
incurred by Trubion in the course of preparing, filing, prosecuting and maintaining such Trubion
Core Patent Right(s), then Facet will continue to have all rights set forth in this Section 10.3(a)
with respect to such Trubion Core Patent Right(s).
(b) Trubion Product Patent Rights, Facet Product Patent Rights and Joint Patent Rights.
(i) This Section 10.3(b)(i) shall apply if neither Party has exercised its Opt-Out Option, or
is deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out Option under Section 14.2(b). Decisions regarding the
preparation, filing, prosecution, and maintenance of Trubion Product Patent Rights, Facet Product
Patent Rights and Joint Patent Rights, as well as any claims within the Trubion Core Patent Rights
that claim the [ * ] or [ * ] of [ * ] or [ * ] in the [ * ] and do not claim the [ * ] or [ * ] of

designate a Party (the “Implementing Party”) to be responsible, using its in-house counsel or
outside patent counsel reasonably acceptable to the other Party, to implement the decisions of the
JPC regarding the preparation, filing, prosecution, and maintenance of such Patent Rights, provided
that Trubion shall be the Implementing Party for Trubion Product Patent Rights and Facet shall be
the Implementing Party for Facet Product Patent Rights. The Implementing Party shall provide the
JPC (i) a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such prosecution efforts regarding such
Patent Rights in the Territory, (ii) a copy of each material communication received from any
patent authority in the Territory regarding such Patent Rights, and (iii) drafts of any material
filings or material responses to be made to such patent authorities a reasonable amount of time in
advance of submitting such filings or responses. Each Party shall be responsible for fifty percent
(50%) of the out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Parties in the course of preparing, filing,
prosecuting and maintaining such Patent Rights and such costs shall be included in Development
Costs if incurred prior to First Commercial Sale of a Collaboration Product or Commercialization
Costs if incurred after First Commercial Sale of a Collaboration Product.
(ii) This Section 10.3(b)(ii) shall apply if a Party has exercised its Opt-Out Option, or is
deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out Option under Section 14.2(b), the Non-Opt-Out Party has
delivered or is deemed to have delivered a Pursuit Notice, and the Parties are not actively
Developing or Commercializing any Collaboration Products. Subject to this Section 10.3(b)(ii), the
Non-Opt-Out Party shall make and implement decisions regarding the preparation, filing,
prosecution, and maintenance of Trubion Product Patent Rights, Facet Product Patent Rights and
Joint Patent Rights, as well as any claims within the Trubion Core Patent Rights that claim the [ *
] or [ * ] of [ * ] or [ * ] in the [ * ] and do not claim the [ * ] or [ * ] of [ * ] that is [ *

(i) a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such prosecution efforts regarding such
Patent Rights in the Territory; (ii) a copy of material communications from any patent authority in
the Territory regarding such Patent Rights; and (iii) drafts of any

material filings or material responses to be made to such patent authorities a reasonable
amount of time in advance of submitting such filings or responses. If the Non-Opt-Out Party
determines to abandon, cease prosecution or not maintain any such Patent Right anywhere in the
Territory, then it shall provide the Opt-Out Party written notice of such determination at least [
* ] before any deadline for taking action to avoid abandonment (or other loss of rights) and shall
provide the Opt-Out Party with the opportunity to assume the preparation, filing, prosecution and
maintenance of such Patent Right in the affected countries of the Territory. Each Party shall be
responsible for one hundred percent (100%) of the costs it incurs in the course of preparing,
filing, prosecuting and maintaining such Patent Rights and such costs shall not be included in
Development Costs or Commercialization Costs.
(iii) If a Party has exercised its Opt-Out Option and the Non-Opt-Out Party has delivered a
Pursuit Notice, but the Parties still are actively Developing or Commercializing one or more
Collaboration Products (i.e. Products for which neither Party has exercised its Opt-Out Option),
then (i) the provisions of Section 10.3(b)(ii) shall apply to (1) all Joint Patent Rights, Trubion
Product Patent Rights and Facet Product Patent Rights that claim the [ * ] or [ * ] of a [ * ] and
[ * ] in each case in all jurisdictions in the Territory and (2) all claims within the Trubion Core

shall file a continuation or divisional patent application of any Trubion Core Patent Right that
contains a claim that claims the [ * ] or [ * ] of [ * ] or [ * ] in the [ * ] and does not claim
the [ * ] or [ * ] of [ * ] that is [ * ], including U.S. Patent Application Serial Number [ * ],
if permitted by applicable Laws, shall pursue in such continuation or divisional patent
applications claims specifically directed to one or more Products and shall not pursue in such
continuation or divisional patent applications any claims specifically directed to the product
known as [ * ] or any other product that is not a Product. Such continuation or divisional patent
applications shall be deemed Trubion Product Patent Rights.

Patent Rights from a Third Party and such Patent Rights qualify as Trubion Patent Rights or Facet
Product Patent Rights, then each Party’s rights under this Section 10.3 with respect to such Patent
Rights shall be subject to the rights of such Third Party to prosecute, maintain and extend such
Patent Rights.

shall be liable to the other Party under this Agreement for any indirect, incidental, punitive,

Party and its Affiliates and their officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents,

use, handling, storage, promotion, use, sale, license, offer for sale, marketing, import or export

under Section 13.2) on or after the Opt-Out Effective Date. The Non-Opt-Out Party shall not be

13.4 Limitations on Indemnification. The obligations to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless
set forth in Sections 13.2 and 13.3 shall be contingent upon the Party seeking indemnification (the
”Indemnitee”): (i) notifying the indemnifying Party of a claim, demand or suit within ten (10) days

amounts, respectively, which are reasonable and customary in the pharmaceutical industry for
companies of comparable size and activities at the respective place of business of each Party;
provided that such amounts shall not be less than [ * ] Dollars ($[ * ]) before the first dosing of
the first patient in the initial Phase III Clinical Study (or the transition to the pivotal phase
of a Phase II/III Clinical Study) of a Product and shall not be less than [ * ] Dollars ($[ * ])

14. TERM AND TERMINATION.
14.1 Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Signing Date and, unless earlier
terminated pursuant to this Article 14, shall expire on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country
basis (a) in respect of Royalty Products, upon expiration of the Royalty Period for the Royalty
Product in the country and (b) in respect of Collaboration Products, at such time as Facet and
Trubion and their Affiliates and permitted sublicensees have all stopped selling the Collaboration
Product in the country and the Commercialization Plan does not contemplate future sales of the
Collaboration Product in the country (the “Term”). If the Term or license has not been earlier
terminated, upon the expiration of the Term on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis,
the licenses granted to each Party hereunder shall, with respect to such Product(s) and
country(ies), upon and after such expiration, become nonexclusive, royalty-free, paid-up and
irrevocable.
14.2 Termination by Either Party for Breach.
(a) Breach. Subject to Section 14.2(c), each Party shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement upon written notice to the other Party if the other Party materially breaches its
obligations under this Agreement and, after receiving written notice from the non-breaching Party
identifying such material breach in reasonable detail, fails to cure such material breach within [
* ] from the date of such notice (or within [ * ] from the date of such notice in the event such
material breach is solely based upon the breaching Party’s failure to pay any amounts due
hereunder); provided that if such material breach is not reasonably subject to cure within the [ *
] period from notice, then the breaching Party shall have an additional [ * ] to effect such cure
if it is undertaking Diligent Efforts to cure such breach and shall have provided a written plan
reasonably acceptable to the non-breaching Party to cure such breach within such additional period.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the breaching Party shall not have the
right to exercise its Opt-Out Option pursuant to Section 7.2 and Facet shall not have

omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. |
72
the right to terminate the Agreement under Section 14.3 during the period between its receipt
of the notice of a material breach and its cure of such material breach or the resolution of any
dispute with respect thereto pursuant to Section 14.2(c); provided that if such dispute is resolved
in the favor of such alleged breaching Party, such Party shall be entitled to exercise its Opt-Out
Option pursuant to Section 7.2 or, in the case of Facet, its right to terminate the Agreement under
Section 14.3 within [ * ] of such resolution if it was deprived of the ability to exercise its
Opt-Out Option on account of this sentence.
(b) Continuation. If the non-breaching Party has the right to terminate this Agreement under
Section 14.2(a), then, instead of terminating this Agreement, the non-breaching Party may elect to
continue this Agreement by notice to the breaching Party, provided, however, if the non-breaching
Party elects to continue this Agreement, upon written notice of continuation from the non-breaching
Party, then the breaching Party shall be deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out Option and the notice
pursuant to this Section 14.2(b) shall be deemed an “Opt-Out Notice” and a “Pursuit Notice” with
respect to all Products under this Agreement regardless of whether such breach related to any
particular Product and the provisions of Section 7.5 shall apply with respect to all Products under
this Agreement and the breaching Party shall bear [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the reasonable expenses
incurred by the non-breaching Party in the course of performing its transfer obligations pursuant
to Sections 7.5(b)(iii), 7.5(b)(iv), 7.5(vi)(2) and 7.5(vii). The preceding sentence shall not in
any event limit in any manner the non-breaching Party’s other remedies for an uncured material
breach of this Agreement.
(c) Disputed Breach. If the alleged breaching Party disputes in good faith the existence or
materiality of a breach specified in a notice provided by the other Party in accordance with
Section 14.2(a), and such alleged breaching Party provides the other Party notice of such dispute
and its intention to seek arbitration or judgment by a court pursuant to Article 15 within such [ *
] period (or [ * ] period for failure to make any payment), then the non-breaching Party shall not
have the right to terminate this Agreement under Section 14.2(a) unless and until an arbitrator or
court, in accordance with Article 15, has determined that the alleged breaching Party has
materially breached this Agreement and that such Party fails to cure such breach within [ * ]
following such decision of such arbitrator or court (except to the extent such breach involves the
failure to make a payment when due, which breach must be cured within [ * ] following such decision
of such arbitrator or court). It is understood and agreed that during the pendency of such dispute,
all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect and the Parties shall
continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder.
14.3 Termination by Facet at Will. Facet shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in
its entirety upon [ * ] prior written notice to Trubion, provided that, within eighteen (18) months
after the Signing Date, such notice shall only be effective if accompanied by the payment of a
termination fee equal to Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00). Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, Facet shall have no right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the
preceding sentence after Facet has been deemed to have exercised its Opt-Out Option on account of
an uncured breach pursuant to Section 14.2(b).
14.4 Effects of Termination by Facet at Will. Upon termination of this Agreement by Facet
under Section 14.3, the following shall apply (in addition to any other rights and obligations

that if the [ * ] are [ * ] to [ * ] the [ * ] for such [ * ] within [ * ], the [ * ] for such [ *

Facet Applied Technology is licensed to Facet by a Third Party, as a condition precedent for a
license to be granted to Trubion pursuant to this Section 14.4(a), Trubion shall be required to
agree in writing within [ * ] of the effective date of termination to pay any payments, including
royalties on sales by Trubion or its permitted sublicensees, that accrue and become payable to such
Third Party licensor after the effective date of the license to Trubion. Facet will not be
obligated to maintain any Third Party license agreement in effect unless Trubion timely exercises
its rights as provided in the foregoing sentence or to grant sublicenses under this Section
14.4(a), if Facet is prohibited from granting such sublicenses under its agreement(s) with its
licensor(s), but shall be required to use Diligent Efforts to obtain permission to grant such a
sublicense from any such licensor(s).
(b) Marks. Facet shall, as promptly as commercially practicable, assign to Trubion all of
Facet’s right, title and interest in and to the Marks used or to be used with the Products

its Affiliates or permitted sublicensees), including any goodwill associated therewith. For the
avoidance of doubt, only those Marks which have been (i) identified prior to the effective date of
termination of this Agreement as the single designated lead candidate Xxxx for a non-commercialized
Product, or (ii) actually used in connection with a Commercialized Product, shall be assigned.
Trubion shall be responsible for recording such assignment in the Territory with the appropriate
Governmental Authority and will bear all costs associated with such assignment and recordation.
Facet shall cooperate in facilitating such assignment and recordation by timely executing all
necessary documents provided to it by Trubion.
(c) Regulatory Materials. Facet shall transfer and assign to Trubion in the form and format in
which such materials are maintained by Facet in the ordinary course of business, all Regulatory
Materials for Products in the Territory that are Controlled by Facet or its Affiliates or permitted
sublicensees.
(d) Transition Assistance. Facet shall, [ * ], provide Transition Assistance for the purpose
of transferring or transitioning to Trubion, (i) in the form and format in which such Facet Applied
Know-How is maintained by Facet in the ordinary course of business, all Facet Applied Know-How not

agreements relating solely to Products hereunder and that Facet is able, using Diligent Efforts to,
assign to Trubion, in each case, to the extent reasonably necessary for Trubion to continue
researching, Developing, Manufacturing, or Commercializing Products, provided, however, that Facet
shall be required to assign any such agreement solely to the extent assignment is permitted by such
agreement, and Facet is not required to pay any consideration or commence litigation in order to
effect an assignment of any such agreement to Trubion.

of the effective date of termination pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Commercial
Supply Agreement, as applicable. Trubion shall notify Facet within [ * ] after the effective date
of termination whether Trubion elects to exercise such right.
14.5 Effect of Termination by Trubion for Uncured Breach. Upon termination of this Agreement
by Trubion under Section 14.2(a), the licenses granted under Article 8 shall terminate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Facet hereby grants Trubion, effective only upon such termination, a
[ * ] license, with [ * ] to [ * ] of [ * ], under [ * ], to Develop, make, have made, use, import,
export, offer for sale, sell and Commercialize any Products that are [ * ] or are [ * ] as of the [

14.6 Other Remedies. Termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason shall not
release either Party from any liability or obligation that already has accrued prior to such
expiration or termination, nor affect the survival of any provision of this Agreement to the extent
it is expressly stated to survive such termination. Termination or expiration of this Agreement for
any reason shall not constitute a waiver or release of, or otherwise be deemed to prejudice or
adversely affect, any rights, remedies or claims, whether for damages or otherwise, that a Party
may have hereunder or that may arise out of or in connection with such termination or expiration.
14.7 Rights in Bankruptcy. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this
Agreement by Trubion and Facet are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section
365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as
defined under Section 101 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The Parties agree that each Party,
as licensee of certain rights under this Agreement, shall retain and may fully exercise all of its
rights and elections under the United States Bankruptcy Code. The Parties further agree that, in
the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against a Party (such Party, the
”Bankrupt Party”) under the United States Bankruptcy Code, (a) the other Party shall be entitled to

15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; LIABILITY.
15.1 General. Any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement
shall be settled, if possible, through good faith negotiations between the Parties. If, however,
the Parties are unable to settle such dispute after good faith negotiations, the matter shall be
referred to the Executive Officers to be resolved by negotiation in good faith as soon as is
practicable but in no event later than [ * ] after referral.
15.2 Failure of Executive Officers to Resolve Dispute. If the Executive Officers are unable
to settle the dispute after good faith negotiation in the manner set forth above or in Section 2.7,
the matter (a) shall be resolved in accordance with Section 15.3, and (b) either Party may seek
injunctive or other equitable relief in any court in any jurisdiction where appropriate.
15.3 Arbitration. Matters under Section 15.2 which are to be resolved through binding
arbitration shall be settled by traditional arbitration or, for matters specifically identified in
Section 2.7(c)(a), baseball arbitration, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the
American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect, except to the extent such rules are
inconsistent with this Section 15.3. The proceedings and decisions of the arbitrators shall be
confidential, final and binding on the Parties, and judgment upon the award of such arbitrator(s)

76
shall have educational training and industry experience sufficient to demonstrate a reasonable
level of scientific, financial, medical and industry knowledge relevant to the particular dispute.
The written decision of the arbitrators shall state the panel’s findings of material facts and the
grounds for its conclusions and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and
enforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction.
(c) Baseball Arbitration will be conducted by one (1) arbitrator who shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Parties and who shall be appointed in accordance with AAA rules. If the Parties
are unable to select an arbitrator within [ * ] of the notice that initiated the baseball
arbitration, then the arbitrator shall be appointed in accordance with AAA rules. Any arbitrator
chosen hereunder shall have educational training and industry experience sufficient to demonstrate
a reasonable level of scientific, financial, medical and industry knowledge relevant to the
particular dispute. Within [ * ] after the selection of the arbitrator, each Party shall submit to
the arbitrator and the other Party a proposed resolution of the dispute that is the subject of the
arbitration, together with any relevant evidence in support thereof (the “Proposals”). Within [ *
] after the delivery of the last Proposal to the arbitrator, each Party may submit a written
rebuttal of the other Party’s Proposal and may also amend and re-submit its original Proposal. The
Parties and the arbitrator shall meet within [ * ] after the Parties have submitted their final
Proposals (and rebuttals, if any), at which time each Party shall have [ * ] to argue in support of
its Proposal. The Parties shall not have the right to call any witnesses in support of their
arguments, nor compel any production of documents or take any discovery from the other Party in
preparation for the meeting. Within [ * ] after such meeting, the arbitrator shall select one of
the final Proposals so submitted by one of the Parties as the resolution of the dispute, but may
not alter the terms of either final Proposal and may not resolve the dispute in a manner other than
by selection of one of the submitted final Proposals. If a Party fails to submit a Proposal within
the initial [ * ] time frame set forth in the fourth sentence of this Section 15.3(c), the
arbitrator shall select the Proposal of the other Party as the resolution of the dispute. Any time
period set forth in this Section 15.3(c) may be extended by mutual agreement of the Parties.
(d) Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses)
relating to the arbitration proceeding, except that the fees of the arbitrator(s) and other related
costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally by the Parties, unless the arbitrator(s)
determine(s) that a Party has incurred unreasonable expenses due to vexatious or bad faith
positions taken by the other Party, in which event the arbitrator(s) may make an award of all or
any portion of such expenses so incurred.
(e) The arbitrator(s) shall be required to render their decision in writing and to comply
with, and their award shall be limited by, any express provisions of this Agreement relating to
damages or the limitation thereof. No arbitrator shall have the power to award punitive damages
under this Agreement regardless of whether any such damages are contained in a Proposal, and such
award is expressly prohibited.
15.4 Patent and Trademark Disputes. Notwithstanding Section 15.2, any dispute, controversy or
claim relating to the scope, validity, enforceability or infringement of any Patent Rights or
trademark rights covering the manufacture, use, importation, offer for sale or sale of Products
shall be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction in the country in which such Patent Rights
or trademark rights were granted or arose.

Third Party, no intellectual property rights of the Third Party assignee, acquiror or successor of
such Party or any Affiliate of such Third Party shall be included in the subject matter licensed
hereunder, to the extent that such intellectual property rights were held by the Third Party prior
to the acquisition, or are created outside of any activities under this Agreement by personnel who
were not employees of the acquired Party at the time of the acquisition. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that a Party makes an assignment pursuant to
subsection (b) below to a Third Party, no intellectual property rights of the Third Party assignee
or any Affiliate of such Third Party shall be included in the subject matter licensed hereunder, to

(b) Each Party may assign all of its rights and delegate all of its obligations under this
Agreement without the other Party’s consent to a Third Party who is not a successor to such Party
as described in Section 16.1(a), if such Third Party is not a CD37 Competitor, provided that: (i)
before commencing negotiations with such a Third Party for such an assignment, the assigning Party
shall notify the other Party, and the Parties shall have [ * ] to negotiate in good faith a
non-binding term sheet setting forth the principal terms and conditions under which the assigning
Party would assign such rights and delegate such obligations to the other Party. If the Parties
agree on such non-binding term sheet within the [ * ]-period, then the Parties shall have an
additional time period, not to exceed [ * ] from the receipt of the notice from the assigning
Party, to enter into a definitive agreement based on the terms of the non-binding term sheet.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the assigning Party shall at all times be free to
engage in concurrent negotiations with one or more Third Parties but shall not conclude an
assignment with a Third Party during the [ * ] period described above during which the Parties are
negotiating the term sheet and/or during the [ * ] period described above during which the Parties
are negotiating the definitive agreement; and (iii) the assigning Party shall also assign or
otherwise grant a license to such Third Party assignee to all of its Patent Rights and Know-How
under its Control that are specific to the Products, and grant to such Third Party assignee all
other rights and deliver to such Third Party assignee all information and materials in

desirable for the consummation of the transactions as contemplated hereby.
16.4 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable to the other for delay or failure in the
performance of the obligations on its part contained in this Agreement if and to the extent that
such failure or delay is due to circumstances beyond its control which it could not have avoided by
the exercise of reasonable diligence. It shall notify the other Party promptly should such
circumstances arise, giving an indication of the likely extent and duration thereof, and shall use
all Diligent Efforts to resume performance of its obligations as soon as practicable; provided,

16.7 Amendment. No amendment, modification or supplement of any provision of this
Agreement shall be valid or effective unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized
officer of each Party.
16.8 Waiver. Except as expressly limited by the terms of this Agreement, no failure on the
part of any Person to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no
delay on the part of any Person in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this
Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or
partial exercise of any such power, right privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. No provision of this Agreement
shall be waived by any act, omission or knowledge of a Party or its agents or employees except by
an instrument in writing expressly waiving such provision and signed by a duly authorized officer
of the waiving Party. The waiver by either of the Parties of any breach of any provision of this
Agreement by the other Party shall not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of such
provision or a waiver of the provision itself.

to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the same shall not affect any other portion of this
Agreement, as it is the intent of the Parties that this Agreement shall be construed in such
fashion as to maintain its existence, validity and enforceability to the greatest extent possible.
In any such event, this Agreement shall be construed as if such clause of portion thereof had never

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to create an employment, agency, joint venture or
partnership relationship between the Parties hereto or any of their agents or employees, or any
other legal arrangement that would impose liability upon one Party for the act or failure to act of
the other Party. Neither Party shall have any express or implied power to enter into any contracts
or commitments or to incur any liabilities in the name of, or on behalf of, the other Party, or to
bind the other Party in any respect whatsoever.

material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. Except to the extent that information contained in any SEC Report has been updated,
revised, supplemented or amended by a later-filed SEC Report, none of the SEC Reports contains, as
of the Execution Date or as of the Closing Date, as applicable, an untrue statement of material
fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

requirements of the Exchange Act.
(ii) Each of the financial statements (including, in each case, any notes thereto) contained
in the SEC Reports (collectively, the “Financial Statements”): (1) complied as to form in
all material respects with the published rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto; (2)
were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent
basis throughout the periods covered (except as may be indicated in the notes to such financial
statements or, in the case of unaudited statements, as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC, and
except that the unaudited financial statements may not contain footnotes and are subject to normal
and recurring year-end adjustments that did not and will not, individually or in the aggregate, be
material in amount); and (3) fairly present the consolidated financial position of the Company as
of the respective dates thereof and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows of the
Company for the periods covered thereby. The books and records of the Company have been and are
being maintained in accordance with applicable material legal and accounting requirements. The
auditors who have certified the financial statements of the Company contained in the SEC Reports
are registered public accounting firms as required by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and
the rules and regulations under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Except as disclosed in
the SEC Reports or set forth in the Financial Statements, and except for matters which are not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the
Company has no obligations or liabilities, whether or not accrued, contingent or otherwise and
whether or not required to be disclosed.

business plan or practices, in any material respect, from past practices, (ii) entered into any

to be incurred any liability or obligation against any of its properties or assets that would limit

connection therewith (the “Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act”), including Section 402 related to loans and
Sections 302 and 906 related to certifications.
(i) Disclosure Controls. The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in
Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by
the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The
Company’s management (with the participation of its principal executive officer and the principal
financial officer) have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of the period covered by the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and as of the end of the periods covered by the Company’s
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, and its
principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that such disclosure
controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the
Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC.
(j) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. The Company maintains “internal control over
financial reporting” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that complies with the
requirements of the Exchange Act and has been designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Except as disclosed in the
SEC Reports, there are no material weaknesses in the design or operation of the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s
ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information that have come to the
attention of the Company’s management.
(k) Private Offering. Subject to the accuracy of Purchaser’s representations set forth in Section
4.1(c), Section 4.1(f) and Section 4.1(g), the offer, sale and issuance of the Shares in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement is in compliance with all applicable laws, exempt from the

registration or qualification requirements, other than those with which the Company has complied or
will comply.
(l) Subsidiaries. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company does not presently own or
control, directly or indirectly, any interest in any other corporation, partnership, trust, joint
venture, association or other entity.

Administration (the “FDA”) promulgated thereunder) necessary for the Company to own, lease
and operate its properties or other assets and to carry on its business in the manner described in
the SEC Reports (the “Company Permits”), and all such Company Permits are valid, and in
full force and effect, except where the failure to have, or the suspension or cancellation of, or
failure to be valid or in full force and effect of, any of the Company Permits would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The
Company is not in conflict with, or in default or violation of, (1) any federal, state, local or
foreign statute, law, ordinance, regulation, rule, code, order, judgment, writ, stipulation, award,
injunction, decree or arbitration award or finding or rule of common law applicable to the Company

such conflicts, defaults or violations that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

material trademarks, trade names, service marks, service xxxx registrations, service names,
patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations,
trade secrets and rights (the “Proprietary Rights”) necessary to conduct its business as
described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure to so own or possess such Proprietary Rights
will not, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company takes
commercially reasonable security measures to provide adequate trade secret protection in its
non-patented technology. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company does not have any
knowledge of any infringement by the Company of any Proprietary Rights of others which could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and, except as disclosed in the SEC
Reports, there is no claim, action or proceeding being made or brought against, or to the Company’s
knowledge, being threatened against, the Company regarding the infringement by the Company of the
Proprietary Rights of others that, if successful, could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company is not subject to any
judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or any Federal, state, local, foreign or
other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or
foreign, or any arbitrator, nor, has it entered into or is a party to any contract which restricts
or impairs the use of any such Proprietary Rights in a manner which would have a Material Adverse
Effect. The Company has complied, in all material respects, with its respective contractual
obligations relating to the protection of the Proprietary Rights used pursuant to licenses, except
as would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, to the
knowledge of the Company, no person is infringing on or violating the Proprietary Rights owned or
used by the Company in a manner that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER; RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF THE SHARES
4.1 Representations and Warranties. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company the
following:
(a) Authorization. All necessary corporate action on the part of Purchaser for the execution,
delivery and performance of its obligations under this Agreement and for the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby has been taken. This Agreement constitutes a valid and legally
binding obligation of Purchaser enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(b) Corporate Organization and Authority. Purchaser is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Purchaser has the
corporate power, authority and capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its
obligations under this Agreement and any document contemplated to be delivered hereby.
(c) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with Purchaser in reliance upon
Purchaser’s representation to the Company, which by Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement
Purchaser hereby confirms, that the Shares to be purchased by Purchaser will be acquired for
investment for Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the
resale or distribution of any part thereof. Purchaser has no present intention of selling,
granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement,
Purchaser further represents that Purchaser does not presently have any contract, undertaking,
agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person

been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule
24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. |
107
(d) Restricted Securities. Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been, and will not be,
registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act, which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of
the investment intent and the accuracy of Purchaser’s representations as expressed in Section
4.1(c). Purchaser understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S.
federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, Purchaser must hold the Shares
indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities, or an
exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Purchaser further
acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be
conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the
holding period for the Shares, and on requirements relating to the Company that are outside of
Purchaser’s control.
(e) Legend. Purchaser understands that the Shares may bear the following legend:
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE
SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR
SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION
NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO
SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.
(f) Accredited Investor. Purchaser is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of
Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
(g) Investment Experience. Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters that Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the
Shares.
(h) Trading in Company Common Stock. Since January 1, 2009, except pursuant to this Agreement,
neither Purchaser nor any affiliate of Purchaser has directly, or indirectly through an agent,
broker, financial advisor or other third party, sold, bought, made any short sale of, loaned,
granted or received any option for the purchase or sale of, or otherwise directly acquired or
disposed of any securities of the Company, whether on the NASDAQ Global Market or otherwise.
5. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY
The Company covenants and agrees with Purchaser that from and after the Execution Date:

been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule
24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. |
108
5.1 Registration Rights.
(a) At any time after the date that is six (6) months after the Execution Date, upon the written
request of Purchaser, the Company shall prepare and file, as expeditiously as reasonably possible,
a registration statement under the Securities Act (“Registration Statement”) on Form S-3
(“Form S-3”) covering the resale of the Shares. In the event that Form S-3 is unavailable
for such a registration, then the Company will (i) file a Registration Statement on such form as is
then available to effect a registration of all of the Shares, and (ii) undertake to register the
Shares on Form S-3 as soon as such form is available, provided that the Company shall maintain the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration
Statement on Form S-3 covering the Shares has been declared effective by the SEC. The Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the
SEC as soon as practicable. On the business day following the effective date of such Registration
Statement, the Company shall file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act
the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement.
If for any reason the SEC does not permit all of the Shares to be included in such Registration
Statement, or for any other reason any Shares are not then included in a Registration Statement
filed pursuant to this Agreement, then the Company shall prepare, and, as soon as practicable, file
with the SEC an additional Registration Statement covering the resale of all Shares not already
covered by an existing and effective Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a
continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause
each such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as
possible. On the business day following the effective date of such Registration Statement, the
Company shall file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final
prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement.
(b) If, at any time before October 17, 2015, the Company decides to register any of its securities
for its own account or for the account of others, then the Company will promptly give Purchaser
written notice thereof and will use its reasonable best efforts to include in such registration all
or any part of the Shares requested by Purchaser to be included therein. This requirement does not
apply to Company registrations on Form S-4 or S-8 or their equivalents relating to equity
securities to be issued solely in connection with an acquisition of any entity or business or
equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans.
Purchaser must give its request for registration under this paragraph to the Company in writing
within 15 days after receipt from the Company of notice of such pending registration. If the
registration for which the Company gives notice is an underwritten public offering, the Company
will so advise Purchaser as part of the above-described written notice. If the managing
underwriter of any proposed underwritten public offering advises the Company that the total amount
of shares of Common Stock that Purchaser and any other persons intend to include in such offering
exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without being likely to have an adverse effect
on the price, timing or distribution of the Common Stock offered or the market for the Common
Stock, then the shares of Common Stock to be included in such underwritten offering shall include
the number of shares of Common Stock that such managing underwriter advises the Company can be sold
without having such adverse effect, with such number to be allocated (i) first, among the Company
and the investors who are party to that certain Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement,
dated July 13, 2004 (the “Existing XXX”), by and among the Company and the investors set
forth on Exhibit A thereto, pursuant to the terms thereof; (ii) second, to Purchaser; and (iii)
third, to any other person holding Company securities

109
who may also be including any such securities for sale in such underwritten offering. No
registration rights that further limit or subordinate the rights of Purchaser to register the
Shares will be granted by the Company until one or more registration statements covering all of the
Shares have become effective.
(c) The Company will file all reports required to be filed by the Company with the SEC in a timely
manner so as to preserve its eligibility for the use of Form S-3.
5.2 Consents. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to procure, in a timely
manner upon reasonable terms and conditions, all consents and approvals, complete all filings,
registrations and certificates, and satisfy all other requirements prescribed by Law, which are

cause to be taken, any appropriate action, and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary,
proper or advisable under any applicable Law to consummate and make effective the sale and
assignment of the Shares contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable after the
Execution Date.
5.6 Operation of Business. The Company agrees prior to the Closing to (a) maintain its existence
in good standing under applicable Law, (b) conduct its operations in all material respects only in
the ordinary and usual course of business consistent with past practice and (c) not take any action
or establish a record date for the taking of any action with respect to any stock split, stock
dividend, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the structure of the Company
which affects or relates to the Common Stock.
5.7 Form D; Blue Sky Laws. The Company will timely file a Notice of Sale of Securities on Form D
with respect to the Shares, under Regulation D promulgated by the Commission under the Securities
Act. The Company will, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as it reasonably determines
to be necessary to qualify the Shares for sale to Purchaser under this Agreement under applicable
securities (or “blue sky”) laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from
such qualification).
5.8 Issuance of Certificates. The Company will, or will instruct its transfer agent to, issue
certificates registered in the name of Purchaser or its nominee, for the Shares. All such
certificates will bear the restrictive legend described in Section 4.1(e), except as otherwise
specified in Section 5.9. The Company will not give to its transfer agent any instruction other
than as described in this Section 5.8 and Section 5.9 and stop transfer instructions to give effect
to Section 4.1(e) (prior to registration of the Shares under the Securities Act). Nothing in this

Section 5.8 and Section 5.9 affects in any way Purchaser’s obligation to comply with all applicable
prospectus delivery requirements, if any, upon resale of the Shares.
5.9 Unrestricted Securities. If, unless otherwise required by applicable state securities laws,
(a) the Shares represented by a certificate have been registered under an effective Registration
Statement, (b) Purchaser and/or its nominee provides the Company and its transfer agent with an
opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Shares may be made without
registration under the Securities Act and such sale may occur without restriction on the manner of
such sale or transfer, (c) such holder provides the Company and its transfer agent with reasonable
assurances that such Shares can be sold under Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the
Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the SEC having substantially the same effect as such Rule (“Rule
144”), or (d) the Shares represented by a certificate can be sold without restriction as to the
number of securities sold under Rule 144, the Company will permit the transfer of the Shares, and
the Company will instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates, free from any
restrictive legend, in such name and in such denominations as specified by such holder.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Shares may be pledged as collateral in
connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending arrangement; provided, that
such pledge will not alter the provisions of this Section 5.9 with respect to the removal of
restrictive legends.
