MATERIALS TRANSFER AGREEMENT

THIS MATERIALS TRANSFER AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into the [ ] day of [ ], 200 by and between GLOBEIMMUNE, INC. (“GlobeImmune”), with offices at 00000 X. Xxxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, and the Regents of the University of Colorado on behalf of the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center (“Recipient”).

WHEREAS, GlobeImmune owns certain biological materials or has rights to transfer such biological materials to Recipient; and

WHEREAS, Recipient desires to receive the biological materials to conduct certain research and investigations and GlobeImmune desires to permit Recipient to conduct such research and investigation under the terms and conditions as set forth below.

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Provision of Materials Identified in Exhibit A. GlobeImmune shall supply the biological materials identified on Exhibit A (hereinafter “Material”) to Recipient solely for the non-commercial research purposes identified on Exhibit B (“Research Project”). The Material includes any additional progeny, mutants or derivatives which cannot be made but for the use of such Material. The Material may also include Confidential Information (as defined in Section 3.1 below) related to the production of the Material that is disclosed to Recipient in connection with Recipient’s use of the Material, such Confidential Information to be treated as provided in Section 3.1 below. GlobeImmune will deliver a reasonable quantity of Material (to be determined by GlobeImmune) to Recipient within a reasonable period of time after execution of this Agreement by both parties. That Material will be provided to [ ] (“Principal Investigator”). GlobeImmune shall retain all right or interest in and to the Material.

2. Use of Material. The Material will be used only by Principal Investigator or by individuals working under Principal Investigator’s direct supervision for the Research Project and will not be transferred, distributed or released to any other person outside Principal Investigator’s immediate research group without GlobeImmune’s prior written consent. The Material is only made available to Recipient for investigational use in laboratory animals or in in vitro experiments and will not be used in humans or in contact with any cells or other materials to be infused into humans. Recipient shall use the Material in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, including those relating to the handling of containment of the Materials. Recipient shall use the Material solely for academic research purposes and not for any commercial purpose.

3. Confidential Information, Research Information and Publications.

3.1 No Disclosure. Recipient agrees that it shall not disclose the Confidential Information (as defined below) to any third party other than the Principal Investigator or individuals working under Principal Investigator’s direct supervision and shall use the Confidential Information solely for the purposes specified in Section 2 above. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information”

means the Material, any information related to the Material and any other information disclosed by GlobeImmune to Recipient and identified as confidential or proprietary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the confidentiality obligations specified in this Section shall not apply to: (a) information that is at the time of disclosure or subsequently becomes, part of the public domain through no fault of Recipient; (b) information in Recipient’s possession before receipt from GlobeImmune; (c) information that is received from a third party without breach of confidentiality obligations; (d) information that is independently developed by an employee or consultant of Recipient who has not had the particular information disclosed to him/her; or (e) information which Recipient is required by law to disclose, provided that Recipient gives GlobeImmune reasonable prior notice of the intent to disclose and cooperates with GlobeImmune to seek a protective order or other restrictions. Recipient’s obligations under this Section 3.1 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

3.2 Material Tracking. Recipient will store all Material in a secure location under direct control of Recipient, separate from other publicly available banks or libraries of materials, even when stored within the laboratory of the Principal Investigator. Recipient will track each distribution and use of Material to individuals working under Principal Investigator’s direct supervision. Recipient will keep a written record that includes the individual’s name, date of distribution and purpose.

3.3 Publications. Recipient shall have the right to publish the results of the Research Project so long as such publication does not violate Section 3.1. Recipient agrees to submit to GlobeImmune for its review and comment, a copy of any proposed publication, abstract or other disclosure resulting from such activities, such as by oral presentation, manuscript or abstract, at least forty-five (45) days prior to any such presentation or publication. If no response from GlobeImmune is received by Recipient within thirty (30) days of the date received by GlobeImmune, it will be conclusively presumed that the publication may proceed without delay. If GlobeImmune feels that the conclusions are not supported by the data, then the parties shall make a good faith attempt to resolve such issues, and at GlobeImmune’s request Recipient shall delay publication for an additional thirty (30) days to allow such discussion. Recipient shall comply with GlobeImmune’s request to delete any references to GlobeImmune’s Confidential Information contained in the proposed publication or disclosure. At GlobeImmune’s request, Recipient will, for a reasonable period up to ninety (90) days from initial delivery to GlobeImmune, delay revealing any patentable subject matter in the disclosure in order to permit the filing of patent applications.

4. Inventions. Except as otherwise agreed by the parties pursuant to their Intellectual Property License Agreement dated September 18, 1997 (as amended), any inventions, innovations or ideas resulting from Recipient’s use of Material, including improvements to or derivatives of the Material (“Inventions”), shall belong solely to GlobeImmune. GlobeImmune may, at its election and expense, pursue and obtain patent protection for any inventions that may incorporate use of the Material or the Research Information. Recipient is granted no other right or license to the Material under any patent rights now or hereafter held by GlobeImmune, nor is any implied hereby. Recipient shall notify GlobeImmune in a timely manner of any Invention conceived, discovered or reduced to practice in connection with this Agreement and shall exert best efforts, in cooperation with GlobeImmune and at GlobeImmune’s expense, in the filing and subsequent prosecution of any patent applications based upon any such Inventions.

5. Warranties. RECIPIENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE MATERIAL IS EXPERIMENTAL IN NATURE AND, THEREFORE, IS SUPPLIED TO RECIPIENT “AS IS,” WITH NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY WARRANTY OF NON-INFRINGEMENT OR TITLE. GLOBEIMMUNE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY USE OF THE MATERIAL BY RECIPIENT OR FOR ANY LOSS, CLAIM, DAMAGE OR LIABILITY OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHICH MAY ARISE FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR FROM THE USE, HANDLING OR STORAGE OF THE MATERIAL.

6. Term and Termination. This Agreement shall be effective upon the date first above written and shall continue for one (1) year after Recipient’s receipt of the Material. This Agreement may be extended beyond such initial term upon the mutual written agreement of the parties, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other party. Within ten (10) days after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Recipient shall return all Material and any copies of the Confidential Information and Research Information in Recipient’s possession or within its control to GlobeImmune or shall deliver written notice certifying that all Material, Confidential Information and Research Information has been destroyed. The obligations of each party under Sections 3, 4 and 5 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

7. Miscellaneous.

The parties agree that this Agreement, including the exhibits, contains the entire understanding and agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous communications, proposals, representations and agreements, whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

The parties hereby represent and warrant that the officials signing this Agreement have the power to do so on behalf of the parties.

7.2 Successor and Assigns. Neither party shall assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that no consent shall be required for any assignment in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of the business of the party to which this agreement relates.
