Exhibit 10.16
CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN EXCLUDED FROM THIS EXHIBIT BECAUSE IT (I) IS NOT MATERIAL AND (II) IS THE TYPE THAT THE REGISTRANT TREATS AS PRIVATE OR CONFIDENTIAL.
THIRD AMENDMENT TO ONCOSIGNATURE COMPANION DIAGNOSTIC AGREEMENT
This Third Amendment to Oncosignature Companion Diagnostic Agreement (the “Third Amendment”) is made and entered into as of December 4, 2023 (the “Third Amendment Effective Date”) by and between:
Acrivon Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxx, XX 00000 (“Acrivon”), and
Akoya Biosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx, 0xx xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000 (“Akoya”).
Acrivon and Xxxxx are each referred to individually as a “Party” and together as the “Parties.”
Whereas, Acrivon and Xxxxx are parties to that certain Oncosignature Companion Diagnostic Agreement, dated June 17, 2022 (as amended, the “Agreement”), under which the Parties are collaborating to develop, validate, obtain regulatory approval for, and commercialize a companion diagnostic test for use with Prexasertib; and
Whereas, the Parties now wish to amend certain terms of the Agreement, as set forth in more detail below.
Now therefore, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreement set forth herein, and for other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
Development Milestone Payments by Xxxxxxx. Acrivon shall pay to Xxxxx the non- refundable, non-creditable milestone payments corresponding to Xxxxx’s achievement of diligence obligations as set forth in Schedule 3.5; provided, that Xxxxx shall provide written notice to Acrivon regarding achievement of each such milestone and an invoice for the milestone payment due. Commencing the first quarter of 2025, in the event that any milestones set forth in Schedule 3.5 denoted as “Prexasertib Clinical Trial Dependent Milestone Payments,” are not achieved in accordance with the timeline set forth in such Schedule due exclusively to a delay in any Prexasertib Clinical Trial then (i) Acrivon shall grant Akoya a reasonable extension of time to attain any such milestones and (ii) if such delay results in Xxxxx having to extend OncoSignature clinical trial assay, regulatory and/or CDx project staffing and/or operations, then Acrivon will pay Akoya an additional Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000.00) (each such payment, a “Prexasertib Clinical Trial Support Payment”), payable in arrears, for each additional quarter required to support the Prexasertib Clinical Trial(s). The Prexasertib Clinical Trial Support Payment for any partial quarter shall be prorated on the basis of the actual amount of days of the calendar quarter involved. For clarity, any Prexasertib Clinical Trial Support Payments will be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any Prexasertib Clinical Trial Dependent Milestone Payment(s) payable to Akoya upon achievement of the corresponding milestone(s). Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, no Prexasertib Clinical Trial Support Payment shall be payable with respect to “PMA Approval – Indication 1,” PMA Approval – Indication 2” or “PMA Approval – Indication 3” milestones.
