This Fifth Amendment to License Agreement (this “Fifth Amendment”) effective as of September 11, 2020 (this “Fifth Amendment Effective Date”), is made by and between The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania (“Penn”) and REGENXBIO Inc. (“Company”) (collectively, the “Parties”) and amends the License Agreement between the Parties, which was effective as of February 24, 2009, as subsequently amended by a First Amendment dated March 6, 2009, a Second Amendment dated September 9, 2014, a Third Amendment dated April 29, 2016, and a Fourth Amendment dated April 4, 2019 (the “License Agreement”). All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the License Agreement.
BACKGROUND
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to amend the License Agreement to clarify the division of recoveries in infringement litigation, to correct a scrivener’s error in Section 8.5 and to update payment and notice addresses;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein, the Parties, intending to be bound, hereby mutually agree to the following:
|
|
1. |
Section 8.5 of the License Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety: |

If Penn prosecutes any infringement claims independent of [****], then Penn will prosecute such infringement at [****] expense and will retain any financial recoveries [****].”
