X. Xxxxx.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, University hereby grants to Company and, upon written notice from Company to University, to any applicable Affiliate of Company, and Company on behalf of itself and such of its Affiliates accepts:

B. Possession of Technical Information.

i. [***]

ii. Technical Information is provided by University to Company solely for the use permitted in Section 2.A.ii or otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, and nothing herein will be construed as constituting a sale thereof.

Page 5 of 40

FINAL

iv. Unless otherwise specified in writing by University, Licensed Entities shall maintain Technical Information as University’s Confidential Information during and, (subject to Section 6 of Schedule G) after, the term of this Agreement in accordance with Schedule G (subject to Section 5 therein).

C. Ongoing Obligations of Former Affiliates.

While an entity is entitled to the benefits of an Affiliate under this Agreement for only the period of time the entity qualifies as an Affiliate under the definition (in accordance with Section 7.C), all obligations under this Agreement that accrued to such entity while an Affiliate will survive until fulfilled even though the entity no longer qualifies as an Affiliate.

D. Sublicense.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Company and its applicable Affiliates and Sublicensees will have the right to grant Sublicenses through multiple tiers. Each Sublicense must be granted pursuant to a valid and binding written agreement that expressly states that such Sublicense is subject to, and the applicable Sublicensee is obligated to comply with, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to the Company: Sections 2.B.iii, 2.E, 2.G.i, 2.H, 8.C, 8.F, 9.A, 9.B and 9.I (the “Flow-Down Provisions”) (including providing that University is a third-party beneficiary to such provisions of such Sublicense).

Company shall pay to University Royalties as follows, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and country-by-country basis:

i. Valid Claims Royalty. Subject to Section 3.B.ix, with respect to a Valid Claim Licensed Product in the country of sale (all such Royalties, in the aggregate, the “Valid Claims Royalty”):

(1) [***]

(2) [***]

[***].

ii. Unique Target Royalty. Subject to Section 3.B.ix, for sales of any Unique Target Licensed Product in a country in which such Licensed Product is not covered by a Valid Claim (all such Royalties, in the aggregate, the “Unique Target Royalty”):

(1) [***]

(2) [***]

iii. Materials Royalty. Subject to Section 3.B.ix, for sales of any Materials Licensed Product that is not a Unique Target Licensed Product, which sales are in a country in which such Licensed Product is not covered by a Valid Claim (all such Royalties, in the aggregate, the “Materials Royalty”):

(1) [***]

(2) [***]

iv. In no event shall more than one Royalty be owed with respect to the individual sale of any Licensed Product in any country, [***]

v. No other Licensed Products shall be subject to any Royalties.

vi. Royalty Period. The Royalties shall be payable only for the following applicable time period (the “Royalty Period”): (a) with respect to sales of a Valid Claim Licensed Product in the country of sale, until the last to expire Valid Claim of the Licensed Patents covering such Valid Claim Licensed Product in the country of sale, (b) subject to Section 3.B.iv, with respect to sales of a Unique Target Licensed Product in a country, [***] from the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country, and (c) subject to Section 3.B.iv, with respect to sales of a Materials Licensed Product in a country, [***] from the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country.

Page 8 of 40

FINAL

vii. Paid-up License. If no Royalty is due with respect to a sale of a Licensed Product in a country, the license granted pursuant to Section 2.A with respect to such Licensed Product in such country shall become royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, freely sublicenseable and freely transferrable and no other payments shall be due to University with respect to such Licensed Product in such country.

viii. Importance of Technical Information. Company has requested, and University has agreed, to grant certain rights to Technical Information. Company requires these rights in order to develop and commercialize the technology licensed. Because of the importance of Technical Information, Company has agreed to pay certain Royalties to University on Licensed Products, as specified above, even if not covered by a Valid Claim, in order to obtain rights to Technical Information. Company has agreed to these payments because of the commercial value of Technical Information, separate and distinct from the commercial value of the Licensed Patents. Company acknowledges that the reduced royalty for certain Licensed Products that are not covered by a Valid Claim is fair and reasonable in order to compensate University for Company’s license of the Technical Information.

ix. Third Party Licenses. In the event that a Licensed Entity acquires a license or other right under any patent owned and controlled by any unaffiliated third party (as defined in Section 9.P.xi) that will otherwise be infringed by, or is necessary for, the manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale or importation of a Licensed Product by a Licensed Entity, then [***] of the amounts paid by any Licensed Entity for such license or rights may be credited against Royalties. However, in no event will the Royalty paid to University be reduced below:

(x) Valid Claims Royalty:

1. [***]

2. [***];

provided, however, that in no event, including the above described reductions on payments of Net Sales of Sublicensees and any offsets, will the Valid Claims Royalty paid to University be reduced to below [***] of Net Sales of Valid Claim Licensed Products.

(y) Unique Target Royalty:

1. [***]

2. [***]

provided, however, that in no event, including the above described reductions on payments of Net Sales of Sublicensees and any offsets, will the Unique Target Royalty paid to University be reduced below [***] of Net Sales of Unique Target Licensed Products.

(z) Materials Royalty:

A. Prosecution, Defense and Maintenance.

i. University will control the preparation, filing, prosecution, and maintenance and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.A.i, abandonment, of the Licensed Patents. Company shall cooperate, and obligate each other Licensed Entity to cooperate, with University in a timely manner in the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents by disclosing such information as may be requested by University and by promptly executing such documents as University may reasonably request in connection therewith. As between the Parties, Company shall, and shall obligate each other Licensed Entity to, bear its own costs in connection with their cooperation with University under this Section 6.A. University will use reasonable efforts to provide, and will have its legal counsel provide, Company with copies of material documents received or prepared by University in the filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents such that Company has reasonable time for review and/or comment. University will use reasonable efforts to provide, and will have its legal counsel provide, Company with the opportunity to consult with the University regarding all patent prosecution actions for the Licensed Patents. University will reasonably consider Company’s comments with respect thereto and will file any Licensed Patent in any territory requested by Company. Defense of the Licensed Patents is addressed in Sections 6.C.v and 6.D.

ii. [***].

iii. For the sake of clarity and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (a) Company retains all its right, title and interest in any patent right which is jointly owned by University and Company; (b) in no event shall Company lose any such right, title and interest pursuant to this Agreement, even if the license granted to Company under the University’s rights in a jointly owned patent right is terminated, and Company may license or transfer its interest in such patent right; and (c) while such patent right shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6 with respect to University’s interest therein (as a Licensed Patent), Company and University shall coordinate with respect to the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of any such jointly owned patent right.

B. Patent Costs.

University shall conduct the activities it controls pursuant to Section 6.A using patent counsel reasonably acceptable to Company. Company shall pay all necessary and reasonable fees and expenses incurred by University relating to the preparation, filing, prosecution, defense and maintenance of the Licensed Patents (“Patent Costs”).

i. Company shall pay all Patent Costs incurred by University prior to the Effective Date that have not already been paid prior to the Effective Date pursuant to the Option Agreement. Such payment is due and payable in four quarterly installments, the first due upon execution of this Agreement by Company. The remaining three quarterly installments will be due at the end of each subsequent full Calendar Quarter. (For the avoidance of doubt, approximately [***] in such unpaid Patent Costs has been incurred by University prior to the Effective Date.)

ii. Payment for Patent Costs incurred by University on or after the Effective Date will be invoiced to Company and Company shall pay such invoices within [***] of the date on which Company receives the invoice.

iii. If Company fails to pay invoices for Patent Costs more than twice on or before the date such payment is due, then upon request by University, (a) Company shall make timely estimated advanced payments for the filing of applications of Licensed Patents in accordance with this Section 6.B.iii; (b) University will specify the amount of any such advanced payments on an invoice provided to Company, identifying the applicable Licensed Patent, country and estimated cost; (c) Company shall pay all such advance payments of Patent Costs to University on or before the relevant patent deadline, which date shall be specified by University on the invoice; (d) invoices for advanced payments will be reconciled with the advance payments made by Company every six (6) months; and (e) any excess payment by Company will be credited to future Patent Costs specified in this Section 6.B.

iv. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, if University does not receive, by the date specified, full payment for any Patent Costs with respect to a Licensed Patent, then, unless within [***] after written notice from University Company pays such amount or notifies University of a dispute with respect thereto, University may, at its sole discretion at any time, do any one or more of the following: (a) by written notice to Company, abandon such Licensed Patent to which such payment applies; (b) by written notice to Company, revoke Company’s license under such Licensed Patent; or (c) by written notice to Company, convert any license Company receives under such Licensed Patent from an exclusive license to a non-exclusive license.

v. Company may at any time elect to discontinue its support of Patent Costs for one or more patent applications or patents within the Licensed Patents. If Company decides to discontinue its support of Patent Costs for a specific Licensed Patent(s), Company shall notify University in writing at least [***] prior to any such discontinuation. Company will be responsible for reimbursing University for any Patent Costs associated with such Licensed Patent(s) that University incurs up to [***] after the date of the receipt of notice, whether or not such costs were invoiced to University during such period.

Page 15 of 40

FINAL

vi. Upon University’s exercise of its rights under Section 6.B.iv.b following Company’s failure to pay any Patent Costs by the date specified or its discontinuation of support pursuant to Section 6.B.v, all of Company’s rights in or to such Licensed Patents will automatically terminate regardless of whether Schedule A reflects such termination and all rights therein immediately revert to University. Without limiting any other rights of University, University may in its sole discretion, abandon the applicable patent or patent application or license such patent or patent application to a third party at any time after such termination. If:

(1) University continues to prosecute and/or maintain any such former Licensed Patent,

(2) Company has continued to support at least the European and United States counterparts of such former Licensed Patent, and

(3) such former Licensed Patent has not been licensed by University to a third party,

then, at any time on or before the end of the first anniversary after the issuance of any such Licensed Patent, Company may elect to re-acquire its exclusive license to such former Licensed Patent and any patent applications that claim priority to such former Licensed Patent and any patents issuing from any of the foregoing, by paying to University before the end of such period both:

(y) [***]

(z) [***]

Challenges.

If Company brings an action or proceeding, or assists any third party in bringing an action or proceeding, seeking a declaration or ruling that any Valid Claim in any of the Licensed Patents is invalid or unenforceable, then to the extent not prohibited by applicable law and in addition to, not in lieu of, other rights and remedies of University:

i. during the pendency of such action or proceeding, the Royalty rate applicable to payments made pursuant to Section 3.B.i with respect to Valid Claim Licensed Products covered by the applicable Valid Claim that are sold by Company will automatically increase to [***] the royalty rate currently set forth in Section 3.B.i;

ii. should the outcome of such action or proceeding from which no appeal has been or can be taken determine that any such claim of a Licensed Patent challenged is valid and enforceable, the Royalty rate applicable to payments made pursuant to Section 3.B.i with respect to Valid Claim Licensed Products covered by the applicable Valid Claim that are sold by Company will automatically increase to [***] the Royalty rate currently set forth in Section 3.B.i [***] ;

iii. For clarity, Company will have no right to recoup any Royalties or other amounts paid before such action or proceeding or during the period in which such action or proceeding is pending (including on appeal);

Page 16 of 40

FINAL

iv. Company shall continue to make all payments directly to University and shall not, and shall not seek to, pay into any escrow or other similar account;

v. For clarity, University will have full control and authority to defend the Licensed Patents in such action or proceeding (but not other Infringement proceedings); and

vi. Company shall provide written notice to University at least [***] , if practicable, before Company initiates any action or proceeding seeking a declaration or ruling that any claim of any Licensed Patent is invalid or unenforceable. Company shall include with such written notice an identification of all prior art it believes is material.

C. Infringement.

i. Notice. In the event either Party becomes aware of any possible or actual infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of any Licensed Patents in the Field in the Territory, or any opposition, inter-partes review, post-grant proceeding, or any other challenge against the validity or enforceability of any Licensed Patent or any claim therein brought by any unaffiliated third party (each, an “Infringement”), that Party will promptly notify the other Party and provide it with details regarding such Infringement.

ii. Company’s Right to Bring Infringement Action. Company will have the first right, but not the obligation, to take action in the prosecution, prevention, defense or termination of any Infringement and University will join as party plaintiff in any such action if requested by Company. Before Company commences an action with respect to any Infringement, Company shall consider in good faith the views of University and potential effects on the public interest in making its decision whether to xxx. Company shall keep University reasonably informed of the progress of the prosecution, prevention, defense and/or termination of such actions and shall give University a reasonable opportunity in advance to consult with Company and offer its views about major decisions. Company shall give careful consideration to those views, but will have the right to control the action regarding Infringement; provided, however, that if Company fails to defend in good faith the validity and/or enforceability of the Licensed Patents in the action, or if Company’s license to a Valid Claim in the suit terminates, then University may elect, but will not be obligated, to take control of the action and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.D.ii, any costs will be borne by University and any recovery will be apportioned in the same manner as an action initiated by University pursuant to Section 6.D.iii. Any and all out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees for counsel selected by University, incurred by University with respect to the prosecution, prevention of further infringement through the negotiation of a license, termination, adjudication and/or settlement of an Infringement action regarding a Licensed Patent initiated by Company and controlled by Company, including any related appeals, will be paid for entirely by Company, provided that Company, and not University, is controlling the infringement action, and Company shall hold University free, clear and harmless from and against any and all such expenses. Company shall not compromise or settle any action resulting from an Infringement without the prior written consent of University (including any settlement with a potential Sublicensee selling a generic or biosimilar version of a Licensed Product) which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event Company controls the action pursuant to this Section 6.D.ii, it will first reimburse itself from any sums recovered in such suit or in settlement thereof for all out-of-pocket and documented costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, necessarily incurred in the prosecution of any such suit. If, after such reimbursement, any funds remain, then University will receive an amount equal to [***] of such remainder and the remaining [***] of such remainder will be retained by Company.

Page 17 of 40

FINAL

iii. University’s Right to Bring Infringement Action. If Company does not take action in the prosecution, prevention, defense or termination of any Infringement pursuant to Section 6.D.ii above, and has not commenced negotiations with the infringer or challenger for the discontinuance of said Infringement, within [***] after it becomes aware of such Infringement or, at any time thereafter, ceases to diligently continue such prosecution, prevention, defense or termination, University may elect, but is not obligated, to do so, at University’s sole expense. Should University so elect to bring suit against an infringer, Company shall cooperate fully with University, including joining as party plaintiff in any such suit if requested by University. In the event University exercises its right pursuant to this Section 6.D.iii, it will recover for its own account any damages, awards or settlements.

iv. Own Counsel. Each Party will always have the right to be represented by counsel of its own selection and at its own expense in any suit instituted by the other Party under this Section 6.D.

v. Cooperation. Each Party will cooperate fully in any action under this Section 6.D that is controlled by the other Party, provided that the controlling Party reimburses the cooperating Party promptly for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the cooperating Party in connection with providing such assistance. University shall not compromise or settle any action in this Section 6.D without the prior written consent of Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Company may exercise its rights under this Section 6 with or through any other Licensed Entity.

vi. Declaratory Judgment. If a declaratory judgment action is brought alleging invalidity or unenforceability of any claims within the Licensed Patents, the applicable Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing and Company will have the right to control such action pursuant to this Section 6.D; provided, however, that if such declaratory judgment action is brought naming University as a defendant, the Parties will consult regarding such declaratory judgment action and Company will reasonably consider University’s comments with respect thereto.

vii. Technical Information. University will have the exclusive right (but not the obligation), to the extent applicable, to institute legal action against any third party arising out of such third party’s actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of any Technical Information, and University will retain any and all proceeds from any such actions and settlements in connection therewith. Company shall have no right to make any demands or claims, bring suit, effect any settlements or take any other action with respect to any such infringement or misappropriation without the prior written consent of University.

FINAL

This Agreement will be binding on the Parties and upon their respective permitted successors and assigns and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Company may at any time, upon written notice to University, assign or transfer this Agreement to a successor to all or substantially all of its business pertaining to this Agreement. Any such assignment will be conditioned on and will not be effective until the assignee or transferee has executed and delivered a written agreement assuming and undertaking all of the duties and obligations of Company under this Agreement, unless such assumption occurs by operation of law. Except as provided above or elsewhere in this Agreement, Company shall not assign, transfer or delegate any right or obligation hereunder without the prior written consent of University. Any attempted conveyance by a Party in violation of any term of this Agreement will be null and void. University may assign or transfer this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder at any time to any third party to which it also assigns all right, title and interest in and to the Licensed Patents and Technical Information, on written notice to Company. In the event of any such assignment by University, the assignee will be substituted for University as a party hereto, and University will no longer be bound hereby with respect to obligations arising thereafter.

Governing Law.

Illinois law (without regard to any jurisdiction’s conflict-of-laws principles) exclusively governs all disputes, claims or causes of action between the Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement as well as the interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement of this Agreement. To the extent, consistent with Section 9.G, that either Party brings any claim against the other Party in a court of law or equity, such Party will bring such claim in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois situated in Xxxx County, Illinois (applying the applicable patent law, as relevant), and each Party shall submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, and waives any objection to venue, for such purposes.

other Party, which consent may be granted or withheld at such other Party’s sole discretion; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent Company or any Licensed Entity from disclosing factual information regarding the licenses granted under this Agreement or the activities of the Licensed Entities with respect to Licensed Products. Company agrees not to use, and shall obligate each other Licensed Entity not to use, the name of any University employee(s) in any commercial activity, marketing, advertising or sales brochures, except with such University employee’s consent.

Waiver.

No term or provision of this Agreement will be waived and no breach excused unless such waiver or consent is in writing and signed by the Party claimed to have waived or consented. No waiver of a breach will be deemed to be a waiver of a different or subsequent breach. No delay in enforcing a term or provision will be deemed a waiver thereof.

Construction.

Each Party has consulted counsel of their choice regarding this Agreement, and each acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement will be construed without regard to the Party or Parties responsible for the preparation of the same and will be deemed as prepared jointly by the Parties. Any ambiguity or uncertainty existing herein will not be interpreted or construed against any Party because it participated in the drafting of this Agreement. No course of dealing, course of performance, or usage of trade may be considered in the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement. Both Parties waive any right they may have to introduce any such evidence.

Execution.

This Agreement may be executed by the Parties in any number of identical counterparts, each of which, for all purposes will be deemed to be an original, and all of which will constitute, collectively, one instrument.

Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable, or in conflict with any laws of any federal, provincial, state, or local government that may exercise jurisdiction over this Agreement, the validity and enforceability of the remaining portions or provisions will not be affected thereby nor the validity and enforceability of such provision where valid, legal, enforceable and not in such a conflict. Any invalid or unenforceable provision will be promptly reformed by the Parties to effectuate their intent as evidenced on the Effective Date.

Third Party Beneficiaries.

Except with respect to Section 7.E,viii, Section 8.D or as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, all rights, benefits and remedies under this Agreement are solely intended for the benefit of University and Company, and no other person or entity will have any rights whatsoever to (i) enforce any obligation contained in this Agreement; (ii) seek a benefit or remedy for any breach of this Agreement; or (iii) take any other action relating to this Agreement under any legal theory, including but not limited to, actions in contract, tort (including but not limited to negligence, gross negligence and strict liability), or as a defense, setoff or counterclaim to any action or claim brought or made by the Parties.

Confidentiality

1. “Confidential Information” means all information, data, plans, materials, know-how, processes, methods, protocols, procedures, formulations whether written or oral, disclosed by a Party (the “discloser”) to the other Party (the “recipient”) regarding (a) with respect to University as the discloser, technologies developed by Xx. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx or members of his laboratory, and including related business, financial or technical information, blueprints, devices, prototypes, software (which includes source codes, object codes and derivatives thereof), patent applications and biological materials, if any, or (b) with respect to Company as the discloser, any business, financial or technical information of Company or any other Licensed Entity, which information, in each of (a) and (b), is marked as confidential or should, under the circumstances, reasonably be considered confidential information of the discloser. In addition, “Confidential Information” includes (x) any “Proprietary Information” (as defined in the CDA) that is not, as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, subject to Section 5 of the CDA, and (y) the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

2. Each Party agrees not to use the other Party’s Confidential Information except to perform its obligations and exercise its rights under this Agreement. In addition, each Party agrees to hold all of the other’s Confidential Information in confidence and agrees not to publish, disclose or disseminate the same to any other person or entity except as specified herein. Each Party may disclose the other’s Confidential Information to its actual or potential directors, officers, employees, consultants, investors, acquirers, Affiliates, Sublicensees, financing sources and advisors who are bound by confidentiality obligations no less protective of the other’s Confidential Information than this Schedule G and only to the extent that such disclosures are necessary for the purpose of this Agreement or for recipient’s formation, fund-raising, acquisition or other corporate activities related to this Agreement. Each Party agrees to be responsible for any disclosure by its actual or potential directors, officers, employees, consultants, investors, acquirers, Affiliates, Sublicensees, financing sources and advisors. The recipient agrees to preserve the confidentiality of the discloser’s Confidential Information with the same reasonable degree of care which the recipient uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information.

3. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the recipient may disclose the discloser’s Confidential Information to the extent required to comply with a court order or administrative subpoena or order which appears to be lawful on its face, or to comply with securities laws or other applicable law or the rules of Nasdaq or any securities exchange, provided that the recipient gives the discloser timely notice, where possible, of the contemplated disclosure so as to give the discloser an opportunity to intervene to preserve the confidentiality of the information. In any such event, the recipient will use its reasonable efforts to ensure that all the discloser’s Confidential Information that is so disclosed will be accorded confidential treatment.

4. In addition, Company and University may issue mutually agreed press release(s) on the Effective Date. Nothing herein shall prohibit Company or any other Licensed Entity from disclosing its activities under this Agreement, as long as such disclosure does not include the Confidential Information of University.

Schedule G - 1

XXXXX

0. Confidential Information excludes any information that is: (i) in publicly known or subsequently becomes publicly known through no improper act of the recipient; (ii) subsequently acquired by the recipient from a third person having no contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to the discloser known to the recipient; (iii) known to the recipient at the time of disclosure, as established by competent written proof; or (iv) developed independently by or on behalf of the recipient, without reliance on or use of the discloser’s Confidential Information.

6. The obligations of the parties under this Schedule G will survive for [***].

7. It is further understood and agreed that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Schedule G by the recipient and that the discloser will be entitled to equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, as a remedy for any such breach. Such remedies will not be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for a breach by the recipient of this Schedule G but will be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity.
