7.2 Complaints Procedure. Complaints shall be handled as set forth in, and in accordance with, the QUALITY AGREEMENT.

8. Milestone Events and Payments; Royalty Payments; Royalty Reports

8.1 Milestone Payments. Provided XXXXXX has exercised the option set forth in Section 2.3 above, XXXXXX shall make the MILESTONE PAYMENTS to LIPOXEN in accordance with the occurrence of the MILSTONE EVENTS provided in Schedule III hereto for POTENTIAL PRODUCTS and COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS, as the case may be (subject to the deductions set out in Section 8.2).

CONFIDENTIAL Page 25 of 58

The MILESTONE PAYMENTS shall be in addition to any royalty or other payments due under this AGREEMENT. Once a MILESTONE EVENT has been reached LIPOXEN shall submit an invoice to XXXXXX for the relevant MILESTONE PAYMENT (unless previously been paid under Schedule IV).

8.1.1 There shall be no multiple MILESTONE PAYMENTS for multiple products or multiple indications except that XXXXXX shall be required to make an additional [***] MILESTONE PAYMENT in the event:

(i) XXXXXX has entered into clinical trials for the development of a POTENTIAL PRODUCT for a specific label indication, and

(ii) XXXXXX terminates such clinical trials and elects to pursue the development of this or a different POTENTIAL PRODUCT with a different label indication within the FIELD, and

(iii) the termination of the development of the POTENTIAL PRODUCT in clinical trials is not due to the failure to meet satisfactory clinical endpoints (a “CLINICAL FAILURE”).

In such event, the [***] on the selection of one or more lead candidates to be developed for the new label indication. Any label indication in the same disease area shall be considered the same label indication. For example, an indication for the [***] and an indication for [***] shall be considered the same label indication.

For clarity, in the event XXXXXX develops multiple POTENTIAL PRODUCTS with the same label indication, whether simultaneously or sequentially, whether in preclinical or clinical trials or launches multiple COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS with the same label indication, then no additional MILESTONE PAYMENTS are due. In the event Xxxxxx launches multiple POTENTIAL PRODUCTS with different label

CONFIDENTIAL Page 26 of 58

indications, whether simultaneously or sequentially, whether in preclinical or clinical trials or launches multiple COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS with different label indications, then then no additional MILESTONE PAYMENTS are due. In the event Xxxxxx cancels the development of a POTENTIAL PRODUCT due to a CLINICAL FAILURE and develops another POTENTIAL PRODUCT, whether in the same or different label indication(s), then no additional MILESTONE PAYMENTS are due.

For example, if XXXXXX terminates the development of a POTENTIAL PRODUCT with a targeted indication [***] prior to initiating clinical trials and elects to develop a different POTENTIAL PRODUCT with a targeted indication [***] then no additional MILESTONE PAYMENT shall be due.

For example, if XXXXXX terminates the development of a POTENTIAL PRODUCT with a targeted indication [***] after initiating clinical trials, and there has been no CLINICAL FAILURE, and elects to develop a different POTENTIAL PRODUCT with a targeted indication of [***] then an additional [***] MILESTONE PAYMENT shall be due upon the selection of the lead candidate.

8.2 XXXXXX may extend the date of the due diligence milestone event set out in Schedule IV once only by paying LIPOXEN the corresponding due diligence milestone payment in advance, as set out in Schedule IV. The due diligence milestone payment must be received by LIPOXEN on or prior to the relevant due diligence milestone date in which case the relevant due diligence milestone date shall be extended by the number of corresponding months set out in Schedule IV. XXXXXX shall be entitled to deduct any due diligence milestone payments paid to LIPOXEN from the MILESTONE PAYMENT that becomes due and payable to LIPOXEN following the due diligence milestone date.

8.3 Royalties. XXXXXX shall pay LIPOXEN royalties in an amount equal to the product of the ROYALTY RATE times the annual aggregate NET SALES of all COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS with the same label indication sold or supplied in all countries where the manufacture, import, use or sale of COMMERCIAL

CONFIDENTIAL Page 27 of 58

PRODUCT(S) is covered by a VALID PATENT CLAIM. The ROYALTY RATE shall be [***] in respect of COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS sold or supplied in a country where there is no VALID PATENT CLAIM covering the manufacture, use, import or sale of COMMERCIAL PRODUCT(S). XXXXXX shall not pay any royalty for the POTENTIAL or COMMERCIAL PRODUCT used or sold for clinical trial purposes.

For purposes of calculating the applicable royalty rate the NET SALES of all COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS with the same label indication shall be combined in order to determine XXXXXX'X applicable royalty rate tier. In addition and by way of example, if XXXXXX were to have NET SALES of [***] in a given calendar year, the royalty payable by Xxxxxx pursuant to Section 8.2 would be [***] (a ROYALTY RATE of[***] applied to the [***] plus (a ROYALTY RATE of [***] applied to the next [***] for such year).

8.4 Royalty Term. The obligation of XXXXXX to pay royalties to LIPOXEN pursuant to Section 8.2 above shall expire [***] after the FIRST COMMERCIAL SALE of a COMMERCIAL PRODUCT in a particular country or [***] whichever is longer.

8.4 SEPARATE COMPONENTS. If components of a COMMERCIAL PRODUCT are sold separately, the NET SALES of such COMMERCIAL PRODUCT shall be calculated as if the components of the COMMERCIAL PRODUCT were not sold separately; provided that no provision of this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the payment of more than a single royalty per single COMMERCIAL PRODUCT. For example, if a COMMERCIAL PRODUCT [***] which is intended to be used with and to improve the [***] the NET SALES of such COMMERCIAL PRODUCT shall be deemed to include the amount invoiced (less the reductions set out in the definition of NET SALES) by XXXXXX, its SUBLICENSEES and/or their respective AFFILIATES[***] with which such COMMERCIAL PRODUCT is intended to be used.

Commencing upon the FIRST COMMERCIAL SALE of a COMMERCIAL PRODUCT, XXXXXX shall furnish to LIPOXEN a quarterly written report (per QUARTER) showing, on a country-by-country basis, according to the volume of units of such COMMERCIAL PRODUCT sold in each such country (by SKU) during the reporting period: (a) the gross invoiced sales of the COMMERCIAL PRODUCT sold in each country during the reporting period, and the amounts deducted there from to determine NET SALES from such gross invoiced sales; (b) the royalties payable in DOLLARS, if any, which shall have accrued hereunder based upon the NET SALES of the COMMERCIAL PRODUCT; (c) the withholding taxes, if any, required by LAW to be deducted in respect of such sales; and (d) the date of the FIRST COMMERCIAL SALE of the COMMERCIAL PRODUCT in each country during the reporting period. With respect to sales of COMMERCIAL PRODUCT invoiced in DOLLARS, the gross invoiced sales, NET SALES, and royalties payable shall be expressed in the report in DOLLARS. With respect to sales of COMMERCIAL PRODUCT invoiced in a currency other than DOLLARS, the gross invoiced sales, NET SALES and royalties payable shall be expressed in the report provided hereunder in the domestic currency of the PARTY making the sale as well as in the DOLLAR equivalent of the royalty payable and the exchange rate used in determining the amount of DOLLARS. The DOLLAR equivalent shall be calculated using the average exchange rate (local currency per DOLLAR) published in The Wall Street Journal, Western Edition, under the heading "Currency Trading," on the last business day of each month during the applicable calendar quarter.

For the avoidance of doubt, the determination as to whether an INVENTION has been “solely” or “jointly” made shall be based upon whether employees, agents or independent contractors of a PARTY would be or are properly named as an inventor on a corresponding PATENT APPLICATION under United States patent LAWS.

13.4 LIPOXEN CORE TECHNOLOGY INVENTIONS.

Each PARTY shall confer with the other PARTY, and make every reasonable effort to adopt the other PARTY’S suggestions regarding the prosecution of such PATENT APPLICATIONS, and shall copy the other PARTY on any official actions and submissions in such PATENT APPLICATIONS. Costs incurred with respect to PATENT APPLICATIONS shall be borne by the PARTY with the right to prosecute each such PATENT APPLICATION.

13.7 Joint PATENT Filings. With respect to all PATENT APPLICATIONS on JOINT INVENTIONS that are jointly owned by the PARTIES (i.e., JOINT INVENTIONS that have not been assigned nor are assignable to the other PARTY pursuant to Sections 13.4 and 13.5) (the "JOINT PATENT APPLICATIONS"), the PARTIES shall determine which PARTY shall be responsible for filing, prosecuting and maintaining PATENT APPLICATIONS and PATENTS on behalf of both PARTIES (the "RESPONSIBLE PARTY") based on a good faith determination of the relative contributions of the PARTIES to the INVENTION and the relative interests of the PARTIES in the INVENTION. At least twenty (20) days prior to the contemplated filing of such PATENT APPLICATION, the RESPONSIBLE PARTY shall submit a substantially completed draft of the JOINT PATENT APPLICATION to the other PARTY for its approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

CONFIDENTIAL Page 41 of 58

14.1.2 Litigation Unrelated to LIPOXEN Licensed Technology. Except to the limited extent provided for in Section 14.1.3, XXXXXX shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless each LIPOXEN INDEMNITEE from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and costs of investigation and litigation, regardless of outcome) resulting from any CLAIM that the development, manufacture, use, import or sale of POTENTIAL PRODUCTS or COMMERCIAL PRODUCT(S) infringes a THIRD PARTY patent or misappropriates THIRD PARTY know-how.

14.1.3 XXXXXX’X obligations under Section 14.1.2 shall not apply to any claim to the extent that any infringement of a THIRD PARTY patent or misappropriation of THIRD PARTY know-how results from (a) use of the LIPOXEN LICENSED RIGHTS, or (b) the SELECTED DELIVERY AGENT or DELIVERY AGENT in the POTENTIAL PRODUCTS or COMMERCIAL PRODUCT(S).

14.1.4 LIPOXEN shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless each XXXXXX INDEMNITEE from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and costs of investigation and litigation, regardless of outcome) resulting from any claim that use of the SELECTED DELIVERY AGENT or DELIVERY AGENT provided by LIPOXEN to XXXXXX under this AGREEMENT to make POTENTIAL PRODUCTS or COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS for use in the FIELD infringes a THIRD PARTY patent or misappropriates THIRD PARTY know-how; unless XXXXXX was made aware of such potential infringement or misappropriation by LIPOXEN but elected to proceed with the use of such SELECTED DELIVERY AGENT or DELIVERY AGENT in which case this indemnity will not apply. Such indemnification obligations shall be subject to the provisions of Section 12.3.

CONFIDENTIAL Page 42 of 58

14.2 Infringement By THIRD PARTIES.

14.2.1 Notice of Infringement. If any VALID PATENT CLAIM is infringed by a THIRD PARTY, or any KNOW HOW utilized in the manufacture, use, import or sale of SELECTED DELIVERY AGENT or POTENTIAL PRODUCTS or COMMERCIAL PRODUCT(S) is misappropriated by a THIRD PARTY, the PARTY first having knowledge of such infringement or misappropriation shall promptly notify the other PARTY in writing. The notice shall set forth the facts of such infringement or misappropriation in reasonable detail.

14.2.2 Prosecution of Actions Related to the FIELD.

(a) XXXXXX shall have the primary right, but not the obligation, to carry out actions against THIRD PARTIES arising from such THIRD PARTIES' infringement or misappropriation of LiPOXEN LICENSED TECHNOLOGY in the FIELD, including the manufacture, use, import or sale of a POTENTIAL PRODUCT or COMMERCIAL PRODUCT(S).

(b) If XXXXXX fails to bring an action or proceeding within a period of sixty (60) days after receiving written notice from LIPOXEN of the possibility of a claim, LIPOXEN shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any such action using counsel of its own choice, at its own expense. If LIPOXEN determines that XXXXXX is an indispensable PARTY to the action, XXXXXX hereby consents to be joined. In such event, XXXXXX shall have the right to be represented in such action using counsel of its own choice, at its own expense. No settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of a suit under this Section 14.2.2(b) may be entered into without the joint consent of LIPOXEN and XXXXXX (which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably).

15. Term and Termination

15.1 Expiration. The term of this AGREEMENT (the "TERM") shall commence on the EFFECTIVE DATE and shall continue until terminated or until it expires as set forth herein. Once a POTENTIAL PRODUCT has been commercialized, this AGREEMENT shall expire on a country-by-country basis upon the expiration of all royalty obligations in the applicable country, unless earlier terminated as provided herein. Upon the expiration of royalty obligations in any applicable country, provided that this AGREEMENT has not been or is not in the future terminated by either PARTY in accordance with its terms, LIPOXEN hereby grants XXXXXX and its AFFILIATES a paid-up, exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, non-cancelable, license, with rights to sublicense, in the FIELD under the LIPOXEN LICENSED TECHNOLOGY to develop, make, have made, import, export, use, sell and have sold POTENTIAL PRODUCTS and COMMERCIAL PRODUCT(S) in the FIELD.

15.2 Termination without Cause.

15.2.1 XXXXXX shall be entitled to terminate this AGREEMENT by serving written notice on LIPOXEN at any time during the period commencing on the RESEARCH MIDPOINT and expiring sixty (60) days after the RESEARCH MIDPOINT.

15.2.2 After the OPTION EXERCISE DATE, XXXXXX may terminate this AGREEMENT, without liability, upon ninety (90) days written notice to LIPOXEN.

15.3 Termination for Cause. Each PARTY shall have the right to terminate this AGREEMENT by written notice to the other PARTY for a material failure to comply with the material terms of this AGREEMENT by the other PARTY,

CONFIDENTIAL Page 44 of 58

provided such failure to comply is not corrected by the failing PARTY within: (i) thirty (30) days of written notice of any failure to make timely payment of royalties or any other amount that is not in dispute, when due hereunder, or (ii) 90 days of receipt of written notice of any other failure from the non-failing PARTY.

15.4 Termination on Challenge. LIPOXEN may terminate this AGREEMENT by giving written notice to XXXXXX if XXXXXX, its AFFILIATES or a SUBLICENSEE initiates a claim against LIPOXEN challenging the validity of any of the LIPOXEN PATENT RIGHTS or to challenge the secrecy or substantiality of any of the LIPOXEN KNOW-HOW; provided that LIPOXEN may not exercise its termination rights under this Section if XXXXXX, its AFFILIATES or a SUBLICENSEE brings such a claim in response to LIPOXEN's termination of this Agreement (except under this Section) or initiates any other claim or action (whether under contract, intellectual property or other legal theory) against XXXXXX, its AFFILIATES or a SUBLICENSEE.

15.5. Termination for Insolvency. Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately by written notice in the event: (i) the other party voluntarily enters into bankruptcy proceedings; (ii) the other party makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (iii) a petition is filed against the other party under a bankruptcy law, a corporate reorganization law, or any other law for relief of debtors or similar law analogous in purpose or effect, which petition is not stayed or dismissed within thirty (30) days of filing thereof; or (iv) the other party enters into liquidation or dissolution proceedings or a receiver is appointed with respect to any assets of the other party, which appointment is not vacated within one hundred and twenty (120) days (herein a BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDING).

15.6 Termination for Lack of Due Diligence. LIPOXEN may terminate this AGREEMENT on giving thirty (30) days written notice to XXXXXX if XXXXXX fails to meet the due diligence milestones set forth in Schedule IV by the corresponding date provided that: (a) XXXXXX has not extended such date by making the corresponding due diligence milestone payment in accordance with Section 8.2; or (b) such failure is not due a force majeure event, or (c) such failure is not due to a material breach or delay by LIPOXEN of the terms of this AGREEMENT which materially affects XXXXXX'X ability to meet the date; or (d)

CONFIDENTIAL Page 45 of 58

such failure is not due to a safety, toxicity, efficacy or pharmacokinetics issue or a new regulatory requirement that results in termination of the development of a POTENTIAL PRODUCT (so long as XXXXXX commences the development of a different POTENTIAL PRODUCT within a reasonable time frame).

For purposes of clarification, none of the due diligence milestone payments are meant to be additive or cumulative to the MILESTONE PAYMENT obligations. For example, if XXXXXX has not achieved the first due diligence milestone entitled "IND Filing" by XXXXXX may extend the due diligence milestone date by paying and another after the expiration of such period; in which case (a) such due diligence milestone is no longer applicable and (b) XXXXXX shall be relieved of its obligation to make the MILESTONE PAYMENT entitled "IND acceptance (or European equivalent)."

(b) XXXXXX shall pay LIPOXEN all accrued MILESTONE PAYMENTS and accrued royalties in accordance with the terms of this AGREEMENT; and

(c) XXXXXX shall be entitled to sell out all remaining stocks of COMMERCIAL PRODUCT(S) under the terms and conditions set forth in this AGREEMENT.

15.7.5 Termination of this AGREEMENT by a PARTY shall not be an exclusive remedy and all other remedies will be available to the terminating PARTY, in equity and at LAW.

15.7.6 In the event that there is an attempt to terminate this AGREEMENT as part of a BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDING, LIPOXEN hereby agrees to grant and hereby grants XXXXXX and its AFFILIATES an exclusive, perpetual, non-cancelable, license, with rights to sublicense, in the FIELD under the LIPOXEN LICENSED TECHNOLOGY to develop, make, have made, import, export, use, sell and have sold POTENTIAL PRODUCTS and COMMERCIAL PRODUCT(S) in the FIELD; provided that XXXXXX shall continue to fulfill its royalty obligations under this AGREEMENT. Xxxxxx agrees to pay LIPOXEN, or any trustee in such BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDING a royalty for such a license equivalent to the license royalty provision provided in this AGREEMENT.
