Consideration includes but is not limited to currency, equity of the purchaser, lessee or other transferee, intangible rights, services and other things of value provided or received as part of the transaction for LICENSED PRODUCTS or LICENSED SERVICES, the fair value of which must be included to determine NET REVENUES. NET REVENUES may be calculated using the accrual or cash method, but such calculation must be consistent from month to month and year to year, and must be the same method used by LICENSEE for all similar transactions, or if none, the same method used generally by LICENSEE in reporting its business activity for United States federal tax purposes.

NET REVENUES may exclude the following items, but only to the extent that they are included in gross revenue, and are separately billed to purchaser, and paid or remitted by LICENSEE to third parties:

(i) import, export, excise and sales taxes, custom duties, and shipping charges;

(ii) costs of packing, insurance covering damage during shipping, and transportation from the place of manufacture to the customer’s premises or point of installation; and

1.17 “PATENT COSTS” means all unreimbursed costs of prosecuting and maintaining any LICENSED PATENT, including reasonable attorneys’ fees or costs paid or incurred, and expenses paid or incurred for filing, maintenance, annuities, translation, or other costs directly related to the PATENT prosecution and maintenance.

1.18 “SUBLICENSEE” means any person or entity other than an AFFILIATED COMPANY to which LICENSEE has granted a sublicense of the TECHNOLOGY under this Agreement, but shall not include any service provider of LICENSEE, an AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE obtaining an implied

license under the TECHNOLOGY to perform the contracted services on behalf of LICENSEE, an AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE.

1.19 “SUBLICENSING INCOME” means everything of value received by LICENSEE in consideration for any sublicense which includes rights to the TECHNOLOGY licensed herein. For clarity, and subject in all cases to clause (v) below, SUBLICENSING INCOME is the total amount received, regardless of whether or not the SUBLICENSE includes intellectual property in addition to the licensed TECHNOLOGY, and includes the sublicense fee, milestone payments, stock or other forms of equity, and the fair value of any services or other compensation received. The following may be excluded from the gross amount received for the sublicense when calculating SUBLICENSING INCOME:

(i) The reasonable cost of services to be performed thereafter by LICENSEE or an AFFILIATED COMPANY for or on behalf of the SUBLICENSEE if, but only if, those services are specifically described and the cost itemized and stated separately in the sublicense. Payments on the achievement of results shall be deemed to be milestone payments and are included in SUBLICENSING INCOME.

(ii) Reimbursement of the amount paid for fees incurred by LICENSEE, such as patent costs, or fees paid to governmental agencies, which are incurred after the date of the sublicense and are actually paid to third parties by LICENSEE.

(iii) Royalty payments on SUBLICENSEE’S NET REVENUES, which will be paid to JHU on pursuant to and on the terms of this Agreement.

(iv) The amount of any milestone payment made to JHU under this Agreement as a result of activity of LICENSEE or SUBLICENSEE, which results in a milestone payment by the sublicense to LICENSEE under the SUBLICENSE. The difference between the milestone payment to be paid to JHU and the milestone payment paid to LICENSEE by the sublicensee shall be considered SUBLICENSING INCOME. For clarification, if SUBLICENSEE makes a payment to LICENSEE as a milestone, and LICENSEE is obligated to make a milestone payment to JHU under this Agreement for that same milestone, that milestone payment amount paid to JHU shall be deducted from the milestone amount paid under the SUBLICENSE, and the remainder shall be the SUBLICENSING INCOME.

(v) The amount received for technology independently developed by LICENSEE or its AFFILIATED COMPANIES, or technology of third parties licensed or acquired by LICENSEE or its AFFILIATED COMPANIES and included in the SUBLICENSE, including LICENSEE’S patent rights claiming the composition of galeterone and related methods and formulations, if said amount is separately stated in the sublicense.

If the SUBLICENSE includes the right or obligation of the SUBLICENSEE to purchase equity in LICENSEE at a cost greater than the then current fair market value of the equity, the difference between the fair market value and the amount paid shall be SUBLICENSING INCOME.

1.20 “TECHNOLOGY” means the LICENSED PATENT(S) and KNOW HOW.

1.21 “VALID CLAIM” means those claims of an issued patent in any country that (i) has not expired; (ii) has not been disclaimed; (iii) has not been revoked, held invalid, or otherwise declared unenforceable or not allowable by a tribunal or patent authority of competent jurisdiction over such

claim in such country from which no further appeal has or may be taken; and (iv) in the case of a pending application, was filed and is being prosecuted in good faith towards allowance.

8.3.1 No indemnification will be provided for claims arising from the practice by a JHU INDEMNITEE of the LICENSED PATENTS, or exercise of rights retained by JHU under this Agreement, or the practice of the LICENSED PATENTS outside the FIELD OF USE by a third party licensee of JHU.

8.3.2 No indemnification will be provided for a claim against a JHU INDEMNITEE for injuries allegedly caused solely and directly by negligent use or administration by a JHU INDEMNITEE of a LICENSED PRODUCT or LICENSED SERVICE, but any products liability or similar claim based upon a LICENSED PRODUCT or LICENSED SERVICE, made by or provided by LICENSEE or any AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE will be covered by this indemnification requirement.

8.4 Survival after Termination. The obligation of LICENSEE to defend and indemnify as set out in this Paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement, shall continue even after assignment of rights and responsibilities to an AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE, and shall not be limited by any other limitation of liability elsewhere in this Agreement.

8.5 Rights and Obligations of JHU.

9.	PATENT PROSECUTION, MAINTENANCE, & INFRINGEMENT

9.1 Prosecution & Maintenance.

9.1.1 Filing and Prosecution. JHU, at LICENSEE’s expense, shall file, prosecute and maintain all patents and patent applications specified under LICENSED PATENTS. Title to all such patents and patent applications shall reside in JHU. JHU shall have final decision authority over all patent matter. JHU shall (a) request its patent counsel to timely copy LICENSEE on all official actions and written correspondence with any patent office, and (b) allow LICENSEE an opportunity to comment and advise JHU on all matters relating to the prosecution and maintenance of the LICENSED PATENTS. JHU will consider any of LICENSEE’s comments and advice in good faith.

9.1.2 Responsibility of Licensee. LICENSEE shall be responsible for assuring that LICENSED PATENTS desired by LICENSEE are protected to the extent and in the areas desired by LICENSEE, including assuring timely review of patents drafted or filed, timely filing as necessary and payment of required costs.

9.1.3 Election Not to File in Certain Jurisdictions. By concurrent written notification to JHU and its patent counsel at least [**] days in advance (or later at JHU’s discretion) of any filing or response deadline, or fee due date, LICENSEE may elect not to have a patent application filed in any particular country or not to pay expenses associated with prosecuting or maintaining any patent application or patent, provided that LICENSEE pays for all costs incurred up to JHU’s receipt of such notification. Failure to provide such notification will be considered by JHU to be LICENSEE’s authorization to proceed at LICENSEE’s expense. Upon such notification, JHU may file, prosecute, and/or maintain such patent applications or patent at its own expense and for its own benefit, and any rights or license granted hereunder held by LICENSEE, AFFILIATED COMPANIES or SUBLICENSEE(S) relating to the LICENSED PATENTS which comprise the subject of such patent applications or patent and/or apply to the particular country, shall terminate, and thereafter reside solely in JHU.

9.2 Notification of Infringement by Third Party. Each party will notify the other promptly in writing when any infringement by another is uncovered or suspected.

9.3 Suit for Infringement.

9.3.1 LICENSEE shall have the first right to enforce the LICENSED PATENTS in the FIELD OF USE against any infringement or alleged infringement thereof, and shall at all times keep JHU informed as to the status thereof. This right to xxx for infringement shall not be used in an arbitrary or capricious manner. Before LICENSEE commences an action with respect to any infringement of such patents, LICENSEE shall give careful consideration to the views of JHU and to potential effects on the public interest in making its decision whether or not to xxx. Thereafter, LICENSEE may, at its own expense, institute suit against any such infringer or alleged infringer and control and defend such suit in a manner consistent with the terms and provisions hereof.

9.3.2 No settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of the suit may be concluded without the prior written consent of JHU, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. JHU shall reasonably cooperate in any such litigation at LICENSEE’s expense, including being named as a party plaintiff in such action to the extent required.

9.3.3 If LICENSEE elects not to enforce any patent within the LICENSED PATENTS, it shall so notify JHU promptly in writing and JHU may, in its sole judgment and at its own expense, take steps to enforce any patent and control, settle, and defend such suit in a manner consistent with the terms and provisions hereof, and recover, for its own account, any damages, awards or settlements resulting therefrom.

9.4 Patent Invalidity Suit. LICENSEE shall defend at LICENSEE’s expense a declaratory judgment or other action brought by a third party naming LICENSEE or JHU as a defendant and alleging invalidity of any of the LICENSED PATENTS. JHU in its discretion may elect to take over the sole defense of the action at its own expense, in which case LICENSEE shall cooperate fully with JHU in connection with any such action.

9.5 Recovery. LICENSEE shall pay to JHU [**] percent ([**]%) of any monetary award, settlement or recovery, net of all reasonable attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by LICENSEE in connection with each suit or settlement. If the cost and expenses exceed the recovery no additional amount shall be paid to JHU.

10.

HANDLING AND RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES.

10.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed, and legal relations between the parties hereto shall be determined, in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland applicable to contracts executed and wholly to be performed within the State of Maryland without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws. Any disputes between the parties to the Agreement including the applicability or validity of any LICENSED PATENTS may be brought in the state or federal courts located in Baltimore, Maryland. Both parties agree to waive their right to a jury trial and to consent to jurisdiction in such courts.

10.2 Resolution. The parties shall attempt to resolve all disputes through informal means. This may include mediation, arbitration, or any other procedures upon which the parties agree. Each

party agrees that, prior to resorting to litigation, it will confer with other party to determine whether other procedures that are less expensive or less time consuming can be adopted to resolve the dispute.

10.3 Challenges to LICENSED PATENTS, Scope and Applicability – Requirements During and After Challenge of LICENSED PATENTS by LICENSEE. The provisions of this Paragraph 10.3 shall be included in any SUBLICENSE and pertain also to actions by a SUBLICENSEE. If LICENSEE, Affiliate or SUBLICENSEE brings an action against JHU challenging the validity or scope of the LICENSED PATENTS, or applicability of the LICENSED PATENTS to a LICENSED PRODUCT or LICENSED SERVICE the following shall apply.

10.3.1 Actions by a SUBLICENSEE shall be attributed to LICENSEE unless LICENSEE demonstrates that the action was taken independent of any influence by LICENSEE, and LICENSEE fully cooperates in defending the action, including affirming the validity of the LICENSED PATENTS challenged.

10.3.2 If such action determines that at least one claim of a patent challenged by LICENSEE, AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE is valid and, if applicable, but for this Agreement, infringed by a LICENSED PRODUCT or LICENSED SERVICE, the party challenging will thereafter, except as to PATENT COSTS, [**]. For clarity, this shall apply to [**], except incurred PATENT COSTS which will be paid as otherwise agreed.

10.3.3 If such action determines that at least one claim of a patent challenged by LICENSEE, AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE is valid and, if applicable, but for this Agreement, infringed by a LICENSED PRODUCT or LICENSED SERVICE, the LICENSEE, AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE challenging will [**].

10.3.4 During the course of such challenge, all payments otherwise required by this Agreement shall be paid as and when due, to the same extent as if there were no challenge to the LICENSED PATENTS, and LICENSEE, AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE will have no right to recoup any payments, including royalties, which become due before or during the challenge.

10.3.5 LICENSEE, AFFILIATED COMPANY or SUBLICENSEE shall not pay royalties into any escrow or other similar account, but shall make all payments to JHU as due and when due, unless LICENSEE or SUBLICENSEE has prior to the payment becoming due, voluntarily and completely terminated this Agreement. Timely and complete payment and full compliance by LICENSEE, Affiliate and SUBLICENSEE with all terms of this Agreement shall be a condition precedent to bringing and maintaining the legal action challenging the LICENSED PATENTS.

10.3.6 No less than [**] months prior to bringing an action seeking to invalidate or limit a LICENSED PATENT, LICENSEE or AFFILIATED COMPANY will provide written notice of the expected challenge to JHU which shall include a clear statement of the factual and legal basis for the challenge, and an identification of all prior art and other matter believed to invalidate any claim on the LICENSED PATENTS or which supports the claim that the LICENSED PATENT does not apply to the LICENSED PRODUCT or LICENSED SERVICE.

11.

TERM AND TERMINATION

11.1 Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the EFFECTIVE DATE and shall continue, in each country, until the date of expiration of the last to expire patent included within LICENSED PATENTS in that country or if no patents issue then for a term of ten (10) years from the FIRST COMMERCIAL SALE in such country.

11.2 Termination by Licensee. LICENSEE may terminate this Agreement by giving JHU written notice at least 90 days in advance of the proposed effective date of termination selected by LICENSEE. LICENSEE shall pay all sums due under this Agreement, including MARs, earned royalties, milestone payments or PATENT COSTS which are incurred or are or become due prior to the effective date of termination. In addition, LICENSEE shall also be obligated to pay any PATENT COSTS which are required to be incurred to preserve the patent prior to the effective date of termination. Termination will not preclude JHU from enforcing its right to collect from LICENSEE amounts accrued and payable prior to the effective date of termination.

11.3 Termination by JHU.

11.3.1 JHU may terminate this Agreement if LICENSEE fails to perform or otherwise materially breaches any of its material obligations hereunder, or of any related agreement including a sponsored research agreement if, following the giving of notice by JHU of its intent to terminate and stating the grounds therefor, LICENSEE has not cured the failure or breach within [**] days. If LICENSEE is diligently and in good faith attempting to cure the default, LICENSEE may request, and JHU shall grant an additional [**] days to cure the default. JHU may also terminate this Agreement if LICENSEE voluntarily or involuntarily enters bankruptcy or receivership proceedings.

11.3.2 Failure to Meet a Required Diligence Milestone. If this Agreement provides for diligence milestones which must be accomplished by specified dates or within specified periods of time, LICENSEE may cure any default for failure to meet a required diligence milestone in accordance with this subsection.

(i) LICENSEE must be diligently pursuing the milestone and provides JHU a reasonable explanation of the reasons for such failure and (b) a reasonable, detailed, written plan for promptly achieving a reasonable extended and/or amended milestone. If LICENSEE so notifies JHU and provides JHU with the foregoing explanation and plan, both of which are acceptable to JHU in its reasonable discretion, then the applicable diligence milestone will be amended in writing to incorporate the extended and/or amended milestone set forth in the plan presented by LICENSEE.

(ii) JHU may not withhold its approval to any extended and/or amended milestone if the explanation provided by LICENSEE demonstrates to JHU’s reasonable satisfaction that (A) the existence of technical difficulties or delays in preclinical or clinical studies ( e.g., negative toxicological or pharmacological test results or an adverse clinical event) or regulatory processes that LICENSEE, its AFFILIATED COMPANIES and/or SUBLICENSEES could not have reasonably avoided; (B) the issuance of an injunction or the grant of other equitable relief by a court of competent jurisdiction preventing LICENSEE, its AFFILIATED COMPANIES and/or SUBLICENSEES from practicing an invention under the LICENSED PATENTS; or (C) a failure to achieve, or a material delay in achieving, marketing approval for galeterone, a LICENSED PRODUCT or LICENSED SERVICE.

(iii) If the explanation and plan provided by LICENSEE are not reasonably acceptable to JHU, then LICENSEE may extend the milestone for up to an additional [**] months by paying [**] of the milestone payment associated with the milestone.

11.4 Survival of Sublicenses. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, any SUBLICENSEE shall become a direct licensee of JHU under the terms of this Agreement, provided that JHU’s obligations to SUBLICENSEE(S) are no greater than JHU’s obligations to LICENSEE hereunder.

12.
