5.Intellectual Property Rights.

(a)Advisor hereby assigns and agrees to assign in the future to the Company all rights, titles and interests in and to any and all inventions (and all proprietary rights with respect thereto (e.g., trade secret, patent, copyright, mask work and/or other intellectual property rights throughout the world)), trade secrets, confidential and proprietary information, software programs, discoveries, conceptions, preparations and developments, whether or not eligible for or covered by patent, copyright or trade secret protection (collectively, “Inventions”) and whether or not such Inventions constitute works for hire or would otherwise belong to the Company by operation of law, which (i) are related to the Company’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development and limited to pulmonary, dermatologic and ophthalmic technologies, or any devices or treatments involving spray technologies to treat a medical condition; or (ii) were developed during Company time or using Company resources that become known to, or are made, conceived, reduced to practice or learned by Advisor, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of Advisor’s employment with the Company and limited to ophthalmic spray technologies, or any devices or treatments involving spray technologies to treat a medical condition (“Company Inventions”). Advisor acknowledges that all original works of authorship which are made (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of this Agreement and

which are protectable by copyright are “works made for hire,” pursuant to United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §101). Advisor further acknowledges and waives any moral rights, if any, which may be had in any copyrightable subject matter of any Company Inventions. Advisor understands and agrees that the decision whether or not to commercialize or market any Company Invention is within the Company’s sole discretion and for the Company’s sole benefit and that no royalty will be due to Advisor as a result of the Company’s efforts to commercialize or market any such Company Invention.

(b)Advisor shall disclose, as Exhibit 3 (if any), a list describing all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, improvements and trade secrets that were made prior to this Agreement, relate to the Company’s proposed business, products or research and development, are owned in whole or in part by Advisor, and limited to pulmonary, dermatologic and ophthalmic technologies, or any devices or treatments involving spray technologies to treat a medical condition (“Prior Inventions”); or, if no such list is attached or if Exhibit 3 is blank, Advisor affirms there are no Prior Inventions. During the term of this Agreement, Advisor will promptly disclose to the Company all inventions that are developed individually or jointly with others which Advisor believes are non- assignable inventions under any applicable state or federal law (inventions that Advisor develops on personal time without using the Company’s equipment, supplies, facility or trade secret information and that do not (a) relate to the Company’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development and limited to pulmonary, dermatologic and ophthalmic technologies, or any devices or treatments involving spray technologies to treat a medical condition; or (b) result from any work performed by Advisor and not limited to pulmonary, dermatologic and ophthalmic technologies, or any devices or treatments involving spray technologies to treat a medical condition; for the Company) and Advisor will at that time provide to the Company in writing all evidence necessary to substantiate that belief (an “Other Invention”). Advisor agrees that he/she will not incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, any Prior Invention or Other Invention into a Company product, process or service without the Company’s prior written consent. Nevertheless, if such incorporation occurs, Advisor hereby grants to the Company a nonexclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, sublicensable, worldwide license to reproduce, make derivative works of, distribute, perform, display, import, make, have made, modify, use, sell, offer to sell, and exploit in any other way such Prior Invention or Other Invention as part of or in connection with such product, process or service, and to practice any method related thereto.

(c)Advisor will assist the Company in every proper way to obtain and enforce the Company’s proprietary rights relating to Company Inventions.This obligation continues beyond the termination of this Agreement, but the Company shall compensate Advisor at a reasonable rate after the termination of this Agreement for the time actually spent by Advisor and for any reasonable expenses actually incurred at the Company’s request. If the Company is unable for any reason to secure Advisor’s signature to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or foreign patents or copyright

registrations covering any Company Inventions or original works of authorship assigned to the Company as above, then Advisor hereby irrevocably appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as agent and attorney in fact, to act on Advisor’s behalf and to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent or copyright registrations with the same legal effect as if done by Advisor.

0.Xx Conflicting Obligation.

(a) If, as permitted under the terms of this Agreement, Advisor provides advisory services to others or acquires independent employment, any such activity will be subject to: (i) Advisor’s performance of all of the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) the performance of any such activity does not, and will not, create a breach or conflict with this Agreement or any related agreement with a third party, including an agreement to keep in confidence any proprietary information of another entity acquired by Advisor in confidence or in trust prior to the date of this Agreement. Advisor will not engage in or undertake any other employment, occupation, advisory relationship, or commitment that is related to the business of developing, selling, or marketing technologies, or any devices or treatments involving spray technologies to treat a medical condition; in which the Company is now involved or becomes involved or has plans to become involved.

(b)If, during the term of this Agreement, potential conflicts of interest develop in advisory with another concern, Advisor agrees to immediately advise Eyenovia in writing.

Advisor understands that Advisor is not to breach any obligation of confidentiality that Advisor has to present or former employers or clients, and agrees to fulfill all such obligations during the term of this Agreement.
