8	ROYALTIES RELATING TO LICENSED IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS

8.1

Royalty Amount. As partial consideration for the exclusive licenses provided herein, and subject to the limitations below, JBI shall pay to Aduro royalties on aggregate Net Sales of Licensed Immunotherapeutics for each Calendar Year during the Royalty Term, applicable on a Licensed Immunotherapeutic by Licensed Immunotherapeutic basis, as follows:

(i) for Net Sales of a Licensed Immunotherapeutic in a Calendar Year of less than an aggregate of [*] worldwide, [*] of that portion of such Net Sales as occurred in the United States and [*] of that portion of such Net Sales as occurred outside of the United States (in each case, as determined in accordance with Section 8.2 below);

(ii) for Net Sales of a Licensed Immunotherapeutic in a Calendar Year of between an aggregate [*] and [*] worldwide, [*] of that portion of such Net Sales as occurred in the United States and [*] of that portion of such Net Sales as occurred outside of the United States (in each case, as determined in accordance with Section 8.2 below); and

(iii) for Net Sales of a Licensed Immunotherapeutic in a Calendar Year of greater than an aggregate of [*] worldwide, [*] of that portion of such Net Sales as occurred in the United States and [*] of that portion of such Net Sales as occurred outside of the United States (in each case, as determined in accordance with Section 8.2 below).

-23-

CONFIDENTIAL

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the three year period commencing with the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Immunotherapeutic, the royalty rate under subsection (i) above shall be [*] for sales in the United States and [*] for sales outside the United States during such period.

8.2

Territorial Pro Ration. In order to determine what amount of Net Sales in each tier shall be applied to Net Sales within the United States versus outside of the United States, such tier shall be pro-rated in a ratio in which global Net Sales for the applicable Calendar Quarter are divided between Net Sales in the United States and Net Sales outside of the United States. For example if, in a given Calendar Quarter, $[*] of Net Sales were made globally, and [*] of such Net Sales occurred in the United States, then JBI would pay royalties under the tier described in Section 8.1(i) on $[*] at the rate set forth for the United States and on $[*] at the rate set forth for outside of the Unites States. With respect to the remaining $[*] JBI would pay royalties under the tier described in Section 8.1(ii) on [*] of such Net Sales at the rate set forth for the United States (e.g. $[*]) and on [*] of such Net Sales (e.g. $[*]) at the rate set forth for outside of the United States.

8.3

Royalty Term. The royalty amounts set forth above shall be payable for each Licensed Immunotherapeutic on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis from the date of First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Immunotherapeutic in such country until the later of: (a) twelve (12) years from the date of First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Immunotherapeutic in such country; (b) until the last to expire of any Valid Claim of an Aduro Patent that Covers the composition of matter of such Licensed Immunotherapeutic or the only approved method(s) of use of such Licensed Immunotherapeutic in such country; or (c) expiry of all Data Exclusivity Rights with respect to such Licensed Immunotherapeutic in such country (the “Royalty Term”).

8.4

Period Pro Ration. If an event that results in a change to the royalty rate payable occurs during a Calendar Quarter (such as a patent expiry or the third anniversary of the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Immunotherapeutic) and it is not practical to determine with certainty which relevant Net Sales took place before and which Net Sales took place after such event, then the Net Sales for such Calendar Quarter affected by such change shall be pro-rated over such Calendar Quarter based upon the number of business days in the relevant country or countries in the Territory in such Calendar Quarter before the occurrence of such event as compared to the total business days in such country or countries in such Calendar Quarter.

8.5

Royalty Rate Adjustments.

8.5.1 Valid Claim. On a Licensed Immunotherapeutic-by-Licensed Immunotherapeutic and country-by-country basis, the royalty rates specified in Section 8.1 above shall be reduced by (x) [*] (i.e. to [*] and [*]) of the applicable royalties payable by JBI, its Affiliates or Sublicensees pursuant to Section 8.1(i) and (y) [*] of the applicable royalties payable by JBI, its Affiliates or Sublicensees pursuant to Sections 8.1(ii) and 8.1(iii), in each case with respect to Net Sales of a Licensed Immunotherapeutic in a country in which there is no Valid Claim [*] of such Licensed Immunotherapeutic in such country.

8.5.2 Third-Party Licenses. The Parties acknowledge and agree that JBI may enter into Third-Party Licenses reasonably useful or necessary for the Exploitation of Licensed Immunotherapeutics. In such event, JBI shall, subject to Section 8.5.4 below, be entitled to deduct from royalties otherwise payable to Aduro in respect of Net Sales in the country or countries in respect of which it has obtained such a license, [*] of the applicable royalty payments actually paid by JBI, its Affiliates or Sublicensees to such Third-Party pursuant to such Third-Party License in the relevant period in respect of sales of such Licensed Immunotherapeutic in such country or countries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no deduction may be taken for any Third-Party License in respect of [*].

-24-

CONFIDENTIAL

8.5.3 Compulsory License. If at any time a Third-Party in any country shall, under the right of a Compulsory License manufacture, use, sell, offer to sell, or import any Licensed Immunotherapeutic, then with respect to the royalties that would be payable hereunder JBI may reduce the royalty rate on sales in such country of such Licensed Immunotherapeutic to the compulsory royalty rate.

8.5.4 Cumulative Adjustments; Exclusions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, under no circumstances will aggregate royalties due to Aduro in any Calendar Year in any country with respect to a given Licensed Immunotherapeutic be reduced by the application of the reductions and offsets set forth in this Section 8.5: (i) with respect to royalty amounts due under Section 8.1(i), by an aggregate amount greater than the reduction permitted under Section 8.5.1(x) and (ii) with respect to royalty amounts due under Sections 8.1(ii) and 8.1(iii), by an aggregate amount greater than [*] of the royalty amount that would otherwise be payable (assuming no deductions) to Aduro pursuant to Sections 8.1(ii) and 8.1(iii).

9	PAYMENT TERMS

9.1

Currency of Payment and Related Matters.

9.1.1 All payments under this Agreement will be made in United States dollars.

9.1.2 For purposes of computing royalty payments for Net Sales made in currencies other than United States Dollars, such Net Sales shall be converted into United States dollars using the Currency Hedge Rate(s).

9.1.3 For the upcoming calendar year, JBI shall provide in writing to Aduro not later than [*] business days after the Currency Hedge Rate(s) are available from the GTSC (which is customarily at the end of October): (i) a Currency Hedge Rate(s) to be used for the local currency of each country of the Territory; and (ii) the details of such Currency Hedge Rate(s).

9.1.4 The Currency Hedge Rate(s) will remain constant throughout the upcoming Calendar Year and JBI shall use the Currency Hedge Rate(s) to convert Net Sales to the Dollars for the purpose of calculating royalties.

9.1.5 All royalties shall be paid through wire transfer at the bank(s) and to the account(s) designated by Aduro.

9.2

Late Payments. If JBI fails to pay a sum payable by it under this Agreement within [*] business days after the due date for payment, JBI shall pay interest on such sum for the period from and including the due date up to the date of actual payment at the rate that is [*]. The interest will accrue from day to day on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 365-day year and shall be payable on demand and compounded quarterly in arrears.

9.3

Reports and Payments. JBI shall make all royalty payments due within [*] days following the end of each Calendar Quarter. Furthermore, each royalty payment due shall be accompanied by a written report showing the Net Sales and the royalty amount payable during the relevant Calendar Quarter. At the end of each Calendar Year, the Parties shall calculate whether there has been any underpayment or overpayment by JBI during the course of that Calendar Year. In the event that an overpayment has occurred, JBI shall be entitled to offset such overpayment against royalties payable to Aduro in the first Calendar Quarter of the subsequent Calendar Year and in the event that an

-25-

CONFIDENTIAL

underpayment has occurred, JBI shall pay a sum equal to such underpayment to Aduro in addition to the royalties paid in the first Calendar Quarter of the subsequent Calendar Year. If prepared by JBI for its own internal purposes, JBI will provide Aduro [*] within the first [*] days of the end of the applicable Calendar Quarter. Such [*] shall be reasonably based on information then-currently available and is non-binding [*]. JBI will not be responsible for Aduro’s use of [*] and shall have no liability with respect thereto.

Upon the request of a Party, but not more often than once per Calendar Year, such Party may, at its expense (except as otherwise provided herein), designate an independent public accountant acceptable to the other Party (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to review such books and records to verify the accuracy of the payments made or payable hereunder during the preceding three (3) Calendar Years. The report of the independent public accountant may be provided with the other Party prior to distribution to the auditing Party such that the other Party can provide the independent public accountant with justifying remarks for inclusion in the report prior to sharing the conclusions of such independent public audit. The final audit report will be shared with JBI and Aduro at the same time and specify whether the amounts paid to a Party pursuant thereto were correct or, if incorrect, the amount of any underpayment or overpayment. The non-auditing Party shall promptly pay any underpayment to the auditing Party, together with interest calculated in the manner provided in Section 9.2. If the independent accountant discovers any inaccuracy that has caused any underpayments to the auditing Party by the non-auditing Party of [*] or more in the relevant audit period, the expenses of the accountant shall be borne by non-auditing Party.

9.5

No Further Payment Obligations. JBI shall have no payment obligations to Aduro except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Except as may otherwise be expressly agreed to in writing by JBI, Aduro is solely responsible for any royalties, milestones, or any other payment or consideration due to any Third-Party as a result of JBI’s Development or Commercialization of the Licensed Immunotherapeutics, including any consideration due to The [*] pursuant to the [*]Agreement.

00.0 XXX and Aduro will cooperate with respect to all documentation required by any taxing authority or reasonably requested by the other to secure a reduction or exemption in the rate of applicable withholding taxes.

10.4 If JBI had a duty to withhold taxes in connection with any payment it made to Aduro under this Agreement but JBI failed to withhold, and such taxes were assessed against

-26-

CONFIDENTIAL

and paid by JBI, then Aduro will indemnify and hold harmless JBI from and against such taxes (including interest and penalties). If JBI makes a claim with respect to the foregoing, it will comply with the obligations imposed by 10.2 above as if JBI had withheld taxes from a payment to Aduro.

Such attempted resolution shall take place no later than [*] days following receipt of such notice. The designated management for JBI is the head of oncology research and development and/or

CONFIDENTIAL

commercialization (as applicable) and for Aduro is the CEO. Any Dispute that senior management has not resolved shall, upon the request of a Party given not later than [*] days after the initial discussion, be mediated through non-binding mediation in accordance with The CPR Mediation Procedure for Business Disputes then in effect of the CPR, except where that procedure conflicts with these provisions, in which case these provisions shall prevail. The mediation shall be conducted in San Francisco, CA and shall be attended by a senior executive with authority to resolve the dispute from each Party. The mediator shall confer with the Parties to design procedures to conclude the mediation within no more than [*] calendar days after initiation. Under no circumstances may the commencement of arbitration be delayed more than [*] calendar days by the mediation process specified herein absent contrary agreement of the Parties. No statements made by either Party during the mediation may be used by the other or referred to during any subsequent proceedings.

16.2

Arbitration.

16.2.1 Binding Resolution. Any Dispute that has been referred to senior management for resolution and that has not been resolved within [*] days after the initial discussion of such matter by senior management, shall, upon referral or submission by either Party, be submitted for final, binding resolution by arbitration in accordance with the then current CPR Non-Administered Arbitration Rules (“CPR Rules”) (xxx.xxxxxx.xxx), except where those rules conflict with these provisions, in which case these provisions control. The arbitration shall be held in San Francisco, California.

16.2.2 Panel. The panel shall consist of three arbitrators chosen from the CPR Panel of Distinguished Neutrals in accordance with the CPR Rules (unless the Parties otherwise agree on the selection of the arbitrators) each of whom shall be a lawyer with at least fifteen (15) years’ experience with a law firm or corporate law department, each of which shall have had over twenty five (25) lawyers or who was a judge of a court of general jurisdiction. In the event the aggregate damages sought by the claimant are stated to be less than $[*], and the aggregate damages sought by the counterclaimant are stated to be less than $[*], and neither side seeks equitable relief, then a single arbitrator shall be chosen, having the same qualifications and experience specified above. Each arbitrator shall be impartial and independent of the Parties and shall abide by the Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes (available at xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/XxxxxxXxxXxxxxxxxx).

16.2.3 Procedures if Arbitrator(s) Not Agreed. In the event the Parties cannot agree upon selection of the arbitrator(s), CPR will select arbitrator(s) as follows: CPR shall provide the Parties with a list of no less than twenty-five (25) proposed arbitrators (fifteen (15) if a single arbitrator is to be selected) having the credentials referenced above. Within [*] days of receiving such list, the Parties shall rank at least 65% of the proposed arbitrators remaining on the initial CPR list after exercising cause challenges. If the Parties do not agree on an arbitrator following such ranking, the Parties may then jointly interview the five (5) candidates (three (3) if a single arbitrator is to be selected) with the highest combined rankings for no more than one hour each and, following the interviews, may exercise one peremptory challenge each. The panel will consist of the remaining three candidates (or one, if one arbitrator is to be selected) with the highest combined rankings. In the event these procedures fail to result in selection of the required number of arbitrators, the CPR shall appoint the appropriate remaining number of arbitrators having the credentials referenced in Section 16.2.2 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitrators shall be finally selected by the Parties (or the CPR, if required) no later than [*] days prior to the commencement of the arbitration proceedings.

16.2.4 Timing. The Parties agree to cooperate (i) to attempt to select the arbitrator(s) by agreement within [*] days of initiation of the arbitration, including jointly interviewing any candidates pursuant to Section 16.2.3; (ii) to meet with the arbitrator(s) within [*] days of

-42-

CONFIDENTIAL

selection; and (iii) to agree at that meeting or before upon procedures for discovery, if any, and as to the conduct of the hearing that will result in the hearing being concluded within no more than [*] months after selection of the arbitrator(s) and in the award being rendered within [*] days of the conclusion of the hearings, or of any post-hearing briefing, which briefing will be completed by both sides within [*] days after the conclusion of the hearings.

16.2.5 Discovery. The arbitrator(s) shall be guided, but not bound, by the CPR Protocol on Disclosure of Documents and Presentation of Witnesses in Commercial Arbitration (xxx.xxxxxx.xxx) (“Protocol”). The Parties will attempt to agree on modes of document disclosure, electronic discovery, witness presentation, etc. within the parameters of the Protocol. If the parties cannot agree on discovery and presentation issues, the arbitrator(s) shall decide on presentation modes and provide for discovery within the Protocol, understanding that the Parties contemplate reasonable discovery; provided that such discovery will be limited so that the schedule set forth in Section 16.2.4 may be met without undue burden. The Parties agree that discovery shall be permitted in order to permit a Party to obtain documents and in formats that are in the possession, custody or Control of the other Party, to the extent not already in the possession of such Party. The arbitrator(s) shall determine what discovery will be permitted, consistent with the goal of limiting the cost and time that the Parties must expend for discovery; provided that the arbitrator(s) shall permit such discovery as the arbitrator(s) deem necessary to permit an equitable resolution of the dispute, which may in the arbitrator(s)’ discretion include requests for admission or interrogatories. The arbitrator(s) shall not order or require discovery against either Party of a type or scope that is not permitted against the other Party. The arbitrator(s) may require a Party seeking the production of documents to pay all the costs associated with the collection, review and production of the documents. Any written evidence originally in a language other than English shall be translated to English and accompanied by (a) an original or true copy of the source document, (b) an original or true copy of the translation, and (c) a statement signed by the translator or translation company representative, with his or her signature notarized by a Notary Public, attesting that the translator or translation company representative believes the English language text to be an accurate and complete translation of the source-language text The arbitrator(s) shall have power to exclude evidence on grounds of hearsay, prejudice beyond its probative value, redundancy or irrelevance and no award shall be overturned by reason of any ruling on evidence, except to the extent that such exclusion constitutes manifest disregard of the law. A transcript of the testimony adduced at the hearing shall be made and shall, upon request, be made available to either Party.

16.2.6 Motions; Independent Expert. The arbitrator(s) are expressly empowered to decide dispositive motions in advance of any hearing, including motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment, and shall endeavor to decide such motions as would a Federal District Judge sitting in the jurisdiction whose substantive Law governs as set forth in Section 16.3 below. The arbitrator(s) may engage an independent expert with experience in the subject matter of the dispute to advise the arbitrator(s), but final decision making authority shall remain in the arbitrator(s).

16.2.7 Decision of the Arbitrator(s). The arbitrator(s) shall decide the issues presented in accordance with the substantive Law of the State of New York (without reference to conflicts of laws principles) and may not apply principles such as “amiable compositeur” or “natural justice and equity.” The arbitrator(s) shall render a written opinion stating the reasons upon which the award is based.

16.2.8 Confidentiality; Costs. The Parties agree that the decision of the arbitrator(s) shall be the sole, exclusive and binding remedy between them regarding any and all disputes, controversies, claims and counterclaims presented to the arbitrator(s). The arbitration hearings and award shall not be made public by either Party without the joint consent of the Parties, except to the extent either Party is required to disclose such information by applicable Laws (or applicable rules of a public stock exchange) or to enforce the award in accordance with Section

-43-

CONFIDENTIAL

16.2.9, and except as may be required by law, neither a Party nor its representatives, nor a witness nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or result of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. The costs of such arbitration, including administrative and arbitrator(s)’ fees and the fees of any expert retained by the arbitrator(s), shall be shared equally by the Parties, and each Party shall bear its own expenses and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the arbitration.

16.2.9 Courts. Any award of the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction for a judicial recognition of the decision and applicable orders of enforcement, and each Party may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for appropriate temporary injunctive relief to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, or preserve the subject matter of the arbitration, in each case pending resolution of any arbitration proceeding. Rule 14 of the CPR Rules does not apply to this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the district in which the arbitration is held for the enforcement of these provisions and the entry of judgment on any award rendered hereunder.

16.2.10 EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE AS SET FORTH HEREIN.

16.2.11 EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY CLAIM TO PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR MULTIPLIED DAMAGES FROM THE OTHER (EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 19.3).

16.2.12 EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY CLAIM OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FROM THE OTHER (EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 19.3).

16.3

Governing Law. The Agreement shall be construed and the respective rights of the parties hereto determined according to the substantive laws of the State of New York and the patent laws of the United States, without regard to conflicts of laws principles.
