1. DEFINITIONS

1.1	“Regents' Patent Rights” means The Regents interest in any of the patent applications listed in Appendix A attached to this Agreement and assigned to The Regents (UCLA Case Nos. 1999-560, 2004-331, 2006-369, 2009-271, 2009-569, and 2011-416); any continuing applications thereof including divisions; but excluding continuations-in-part except to the extent of claims entirely supported in the specification and entitled to the priority date of the parent application; any patents issuing on these applications including reissues and reexaminations; and any corresponding foreign patents or patent applications; all of which will be automatically incorporated in and added to Appendix A and made a part of this Agreement.
1.2	“Licensed Product” means any article, composition, apparatus, substance, chemical, or any other material whose manufacture, use or sale would constitute an infringement of any Valid Claim within Regents' Patent Rights, or any service, article, composition, apparatus, chemical, substance, or any other material made, used, or sold by or utilizing or practicing a Licensed Method. This definition of Licensed Product also includes a service either used by Licensee, an Affiliate, or Sublicensee or provided by Licensee, an Affiliate or Sublicensee to its customers when such service requires the use of Licensed Product or performance of Licensed Method.
1.3	“Licensed Method” means any process or method whose use or practice would constitute an infringement of any Valid Claim within Regents' Patent Rights.
1.4	“Field of Use” means use in spinal fusion by local administration, Osteoporosis, and long bones/extremities (trauma), and excludes use in cartilage and all other indications.
1.5	“Affiliate” means any corporation or other business entity in which Licensee owns or controls, directly or indirectly, at least fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding stock or other voting rights entitled to elect directors. In any country where the local law does not permit foreign equity participation of at least fifty percent (50%), then “Affiliate” means any company in which Licensee owns or controls, directly or indirectly, the maximum percentage of outstanding stock or voting rights that is permitted by local law.

2

1.6	“First Commercial Sale” means the first sale of any Licensed Product by Licensee or any Affiliate or Sublicensee, following marketing approval by the appropriate governmental agency for the country in which the sale is to be made. When governmental marketing approval is not required, “First Commercial Sale” means the first sale in that country.
1.7	“Final Sale” means any sale, transfer, lease, exchange or other disposition or provision of a Licensed Product and/or a Licensed Method to a Customer. A Final Sale shall be deemed to have occurred upon the earliest to occur of the following (as applicable): (a) the transfer of title to such Licensed Product and/or Licensed Method to a Customer, (b) the shipment of such Licensed Product to a Customer, (c) the provision of a Licensed Method to a Customer, (d) the provision of an invoice for such Licensed Product or Licensed Method to a Customer, or (e) payment by the Customer for Licensed Products or Licensed Methods.
1.8	“Net Sales” means the total of the gross amount invoiced or otherwise charged (whether consisting of cash or any other forms of consideration) for the Final Sale of Licensed Products or Licensed Methods by Licensee, or by any Affiliate, joint venture or Sublicensee to Customers, less the following deductions (to the extent included in and not already deducted from the gross amount invoiced or otherwise charged) to the extent reasonable and customary: cash, trade or quantity discounts, retroactive price reductions or rebates actually granted to Customers and charge-back payments and rebates granted to managed health care organizations or to any governmental entity (and its agencies, purchasers or reimbursers); sales, use, tariff, import/export duties or other excise taxes imposed on particular sales (excepting value added taxes or income taxes); transportation and delivery charges, including insurance to the extent actually paid by the Customer; and allowances or credits to Customers because of rejections or returns and amounts written off as uncollectible by Licensee. Where Licensee or any Affiliate, joint venture or Sublicensee is the Customer, then Net Sales shall be based on the average Net Sales received from other Customers in an arm’s length transaction for such Licensed Products or Licensed Methods during the same calendar quarter, less the deductions described above. If a Licensed Product is sold in combination with another product, component or service not covered by a Valid Claim in the country in which the combination product is sold, the Net Sales for such combination product shall be calculated by multiplying the net selling price of the combination by the fraction A/(A + B), where A is the average gross selling price of the Licensed Product sold separately in that country, and B is the average gross selling price of the other product, component or service sold separately in that country. If all such items are not sold separately, any item not sold separately shall have a price attributed to it for purposes of this definition consistent with pricing of similar products or their functional equivalents sold separately. If a price for either or both items cannot be determined pursuant to the foregoing, the Net Sales for purposes of determining royalties on the combination product shall be reasonably determined by Licensee based on the relative value contributed by each item to the combination product.
1.9	“Series A Financing” means an investment of at least Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) from a venture capital firm through the sale of equity securities of Licensee or documentation that sufficient funds have been raised from any source to meet all the development milestones set forth up to Paragraph 6.3(e).

1.12	“Customer” means any individual or entity that receives Licensed Products or Licensed Methods, provided however, that Licensee or any Affiliate, joint venture or Sublicensee shall be deemed a Customer only if it receives Licensed Products or Licensed Services for its own end-use and not resale.
1.13	“Valid Claim” means a patent claim contained in (a) a pending application included within the Regents' Patent Rights, unless such application has been pending for more than five (5) years from its U.S. filing date for domestic patents and seven (7) years from the date of the PCT filing for foreign; or (b) an issued and unexpired patent included within the Regents' Patent Rights which claim has not been held unenforceable, unpatentable or invalid by a final decision of a court or other governmental agency of competent jurisdiction, unappealable or unappealed within the time allowed for appeal, and which has not been admitted to be invalid or unenforceable through abandonment, reissue, disclaimer or otherwise.

	(b)	if actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices over the 30-day period ending three (3) days prior to the closing of such transaction. The method of valuation of securities subject to investment letters or other similar restrictions on free marketability shall take into account an appropriate discount from the market value as determined pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above so as to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof.

For purposes of this Paragraph 4.6, “Change of Control Transaction” means the earlier to occur of:

	(a)	any acquisition, consolidation, merger, reverse merger, share exchange, reorganization or other transaction or series of transactions in which (A) Licensee is a constituent party or (B) a subsidiary of Licensee is a constituent party and the Licensee issues shares of its securities pursuant to such transaction, and pursuant to which greater than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of Licensee or subsidiary of Licensee is transferred to a third party (“Merger”),

The payment required pursuant to this Paragraph 4.6 shall be a one-time payment obligation (provided, any Trailing Consideration may occur pursuant to one or more payments in accordance with the terms of this Paragraph 4.6). The Licensee’s obligation to pay any of the above payments will survive termination, expiration or assignment or transfer of this License; provided Licensee closes a financing of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) before February 29, 2016.

By way of example, if FCS took place on February 1, 2008, the first Calendar Year after FCS would be 2009 and the Minimum Annual Royalty would be due on or before February 28, 2009.

5.3	Paragraphs 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 define Regents' Patent Rights, Licensed Product, Licensed Method and the Field of Use so that royalties are payable on products covered by pending patent applications and issued patents. Royalties accrue for the duration of this Agreement.

All payments made by Licensee in fulfillment of The Regents' tax liability in any particular country will be credited against fees or royalties due The Regents for that country.
5.7	If at any time legal restrictions prevent the acquisition or prompt remittance of United States Dollars by Licensee with respect to any country where a Licensed Product is sold, the Licensee shall pay royalties due to The Regents from Licensee’s other sources of United States Dollars.
5.8	If any patent or any claim included in Regents' Patent Rights is held invalid or unenforceable in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal has or can be taken, all obligation to pay royalties based on that patent or claim or any claim patentably indistinct from it will cease as of the date of that final decision. Licensee will not, however, be relieved from paying any royalties that accrued before that decision or that is based on another patent or claim not involved in that decision.
5.9	No royalties will be collected or paid on Licensed Products sold to the United States Federal Government, or any agency of the United States Government. The Licensee and its Sublicensees will reduce the amount charged for Licensed Products distributed to the United States Government by the amount of the royalty.

5.10

No multiple royalties will be due even if a Licensed Product or Licensed Method is covered by more than one of the Regents’ Patent Rights.

5.11

All other requests and instructions for patent prosecution (for example Chapter Two Demands, responses to office actions, utility filings, provisional patent filings, etc.) shall be provided in writing by Licensee to The Regents no later than ninety (90) days prior to the deadline set by the patent office in the territory such patent action is to take place in (also a “Patent Prosecution Request” for purposes of this Agreement). The absence of this Patent Prosecution Request by the deadline specified in this Paragraph 7.1 will be considered an election not to secure the patent rights associated with the specific phase of patent prosecution in such territory, and such patent application(s) and patent(s) will not be part of Regents’ Patent Rights and therefore not subject to this Agreement, and Licensee will have no further rights or license to them.

7.1c Ninety (90) days before the deadline for filing a Chapter Two Demand and ninety (90) days before the deadline for filing a National Phase Filing, but not sooner, The Regents will have the right to file patent applications at its own expense in any territory which Licensee has not identified in written notice pursuant to this Paragraph 7.1 and such patent application(s) and patent(s) will not be part of Regents’ Patent Rights and therefore not subject to this Agreement, and Licensee will have no further rights or license to them.

7.2 Past Patent Costs

Licensee will bear all costs incurred prior to the term of this Agreement in the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of patent applications and patents in Regents’ Patent Rights (“Past Patent Costs”). Prosecution includes, but is not limited to, interferences, oppositions and any other inter partes matters originating in a patent office. Licensee must send payment for such Past Patent Costs to The Regents within thirty (30) days of Licensee’s receipt of an invoice for these costs.

11

7.3 Ongoing Patent Costs

	7.3a	Licensee will bear all costs incurred during the term of this Agreement in the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of patent applications and patents in Regents’ Patent Rights (“Ongoing Patent Costs”). Prosecution includes, but is not limited to, interferences, oppositions and any inter partes matters originating in a patent office. Licensee’s obligation to underwrite and to pay all United States and foreign patent costs will continue for as long as this Agreement remains in effect. Licensee may request a cost estimate for patent filings, chapter two demands and office actions (“Cost Estimate”). Fees and expenses that are due to incidentals (for example photocopy charges or long distance phone charges) are not included within such Cost Estimate unless expressly so stated, nor is Licensee’s direct interaction with Regents’ counsel such as by phone calls, e-mails, in person meetings and the like.
	7.3b	With each Patent Prosecution Request, Licensee must pay in advance to The Regents The Regents’ patent counsel’s estimated costs for undertaking any utility patent filing, National Phase Filing or office action filing before The Regents authorizes its patent counsel to proceed with such patent action (“Advanced Payment”). The absence of this Advanced Payment will be considered an election not to secure the patent rights associated with the specific phase of patent prosecution in such territory, and such patent application(s) and patent(s) will not be part of Regents’ Patent Rights and therefore not subject to this Agreement, and Licensee will have no further rights or license to them.

7.4 Termination of Patent Prosecution by Licensee

Licensee may terminate its obligations with respect to any given patent application or patent within Regents’ Patent Rights by providing written notice to The Regents (“Patent Termination Notice”), and termination of Licensee’s obligations with respect to such patent application or patent will be effective three (3) months after receipt of such Patent Termination Notice by The Regents. The Regents will use its best efforts to curtail patent costs chargeable to Licensee under this Agreement after this Patent Termination Notice is received by The Regents from Licensee. The Regents may continue prosecution or maintenance of these application(s) or patent(s) at its sole discretion and expense, and such application(s) and patent(s) will not be part of Regents’ Patent Rights and therefore not subject to this Agreement, and Licensee will have no further rights or license to them.

8. PATENT INFRINGEMENT

8.1 In the event that The Regents (to the extent of the actual knowledge of the licensing professional responsible for the administration of this Agreement) or the Licensee learns of infringement of potential commercial significance of any patent licensed under this Agreement, the knowledgeable party will provide the other (i) with written notice of such infringement and (ii) with any evidence of such infringement available to it (the “Infringement Notice”). During the period in which, and in the jurisdiction where, the Licensee has exclusive rights under this Agreement, neither The Regents nor the Licensee will notify a third party (including the infringer) of infringement or put such third party on notice of the existence of any Patent Rights without first obtaining consent of the other. If the Licensee puts such infringer on notice of the existence of any Patent Rights with respect to such infringement without first obtaining the written consent of The Regents and if a declaratory judgement action is filed by such infringer against The Regents, then Licensee’s right to initiate a suit against such infringer for infringement under Paragraph 8.2 below will terminate immediately without the obligation of The Regents to provide notice to the Licensee. Both The Regents and the Licensee will use their diligent efforts to cooperate with each other to terminate such infringement without litigation; provided, however, that Licensee shall not be required to sublicense the infringer.

12

8.2	If infringing activity of potential commercial significance by the infringer has not been abated within ninety (90) days following the date the Infringement Notice takes effect, then the Licensee will have the initial right, but not the obligation, at its expense, to institute suit for patent infringement against the infringer. The Regents may voluntarily join such suit at its own expense, but may not thereafter commence suit against the infringer for the acts of infringement that are the subject of the Licensee’s suit or any judgment rendered in the suit. If, in a suit initiated by the Licensee, The Regents is involuntarily joined other than by the Licensee, then the Licensee will pay any costs incurred by The Regents arising out of such suit, including but not limited to, any legal fees of counsel that The Regents selects and retains to represent it in the suit. In the event that (1) Licensee is unable to proceed with an infringement actions because The Regents is deemed to be a necessary party and The Regents declines to be joined in the Licensee’s infringement action; (2) The Regents does not pursue an infringement action in its own name; and (3) Licensee is unable to reach a mutually acceptable business solution with the alleged infringer (e.g. sublicense from Licensee), The Regents agrees to reduce by fifty percent (50%) the royalty rates payable by Licensee under the Agreement to account for the impact of the alleged infringement on Licensee.
8.3	If, within a hundred and eighty (180) days following the date the Infringement Notice takes effect, infringing activity of potential commercial significance by the infringer has not been abated and if the Licensee has not brought suit against the infringer, then The Regents may institute such suit for patent infringement against the infringer. If The Regents institutes such suit, then the Licensee may not join such suit without The Regents consent and may not thereafter commence suit against the infringer for acts of infringement that are subject to The Regents suit or any judgment rendered in that suit.
8.4	Any recovery or settlement received in connection with any suit will first be shared by The Regents and the Licensee equally to cover any litigation costs each incurred and next shall be paid to The Regents or the Licensee to cover any litigation costs it incurred in excess of the litigation costs of the other. In any suit initiated by the Licensee, any recovery in excess of litigation costs will be shared between Licensee and The Regents as follows: (a) for any recovery other than amounts paid for willful infringement: (i) The Regents will receive fifteen percent (15%) of the recovery if The Regents was not a party in the litigation or was involuntarily joined but did not actively participate in the litigation, (ii) The Regents will receive forty percent (40%) if The Regents was party in the litigation, and actively participated in the litigation (and incurred litigation costs); and (b) for any recovery for willful infringement, The Regents will receive fifty percent (50%) of the recovery. The Regents and the Licensee agree to be bound by all determinations of patent infringement, validity and enforceability (but no other issue) resolved by any adjudicated judgment in a suit brought in compliance with this Article 8 (Patent Infringement).
8.5	Any agreement made by the Licensee for purposes of settling litigation or other dispute shall comply with the requirements of Article 3 (SUBLICENSES) of this Agreement.
8.6	Each party will cooperate with the other in litigation proceedings instituted hereunder but at the expense of the party who initiated the suit (unless such suit is being jointly prosecuted by the parties).
8.7	Any litigation proceedings will be controlled by the party bringing the suit, except that The Regents may be represented by counsel of its choice in any suit brought by the Licensee.

13

The Regents will pay the fees and expenses of these inspections. If an error favoring Licensee of more than five percent (5%) of the total annual royalties is discovered, for the period being audited, then Licensee will pay the fees and expenses of these inspections. Any auditor shall enter into a confidentiality agreement with Licensee, reasonably acceptable to Licensee, prior to conducting any inspection and shall not disclose any Licensee Confidential Information except to the extent necessary to verify the accuracy of the payments made by Licensee hereunder and compliance with other provisions in this agreement.
