Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following sales of a Licensed Product shall be excluded from Net Sales calculations for all purposes: (i) transfer or dispositions of reasonable quantities of samples of such Licensed Product at no cost for promotional or educational purposes; (ii) transfers or dispositions of reasonable and customary quantities of such Licensed Product as free samples or donations, or for patient assistance, testing marketing programs or other similar programs at no cost; and (iii) use or sale of such Licensed Product for Clinical Trial or other scientific testing purposes, early access programs (such as to provide patients with such Licensed Product prior to Marketing Approval pursuant to treatment INDs or protocols, named patient programs or compassionate use programs) or any similar use.

In the event a Licensed Product is sold as part of a Combination Product in a country, the Net Sales with respect to the Combination Product in such country (for all financial terms pursuant to Article 7) shall be determined by multiplying the Net Sales amount for the Combination Product during the applicable reporting period, calculated as set forth above, by the fraction A/(A+B), where A is the weighted average sale price (by sales volume) of the Licensed Product in such country when sold separately, and B is the weighted average sales price of the other active ingredient(s) or product(s) in the Combination Product in such country when sold separately, in each case in the same dosage and dosage form and in the same country as the Combination Product during the applicable reporting period. If the other active ingredient(s) or product(s) in the Combination Product is not sold separately in such country during the applicable reporting period, Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of such Combination Product by a fraction A/C where A is the weighted average sale price (by sales volume) of the Licensed Product in such country when sold separately, and C is the weighted average sale price (by sales volume) of the Combination Product in such country. If neither the Licensed Product nor the other active ingredient(s) or product(s) were sold separately in such country during the applicable reporting period, then the respective average sales prices during the most recent reporting period in which sales of both occurred in the same country as the Combination Product shall be used. In the event that the weighted average sale price (by sales volume) of the Licensed Product is not available in a given country for any reporting period, then the average sales prices (weighted by sales volume) of the respective products described above (in the same dosage and dosage form as the Combination Product) in a proxy country to be agreed upon by both Parties will be used (such agreement not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and if the Parties cannot agree upon such proxy country, or no such comparable sales figures are available in an appropriate proxy country, Net Sales for the applicable Combination Product shall be allocated based on the relative value contributed by each component (such relative value to be agreed upon by the Parties or, if the Parties cannot agree, to be determined by the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article 13).

Xxxxxxx would have the right to audit Protagonist’s records regarding performance under the Co-Detailing Agreement, solely for the purpose of determining Protagonist’s compliance with the Co-Detailing Agreement.

(8)Xxxxxxx would have the right to terminate the Co-Detailing Agreement immediately by written notice if (i) Protagonist fails to contribute at least [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the Details for such Licensed Products in the U.S. for a Calendar Quarter that Protagonist is obligated to provide under the Co-Detailing Agreement and fails to remedy such shortfall within [ * ] after receiving written notice of such shortfall from Xxxxxxx or (ii) Protagonist materially breaches the Co-Detailing Agreement and fails to cure such breach within [ * ] after receiving written notice of such breach from Xxxxxxx. The Co-Detailing Agreement would be subordinate to and coterminous with this Agreement.

(9)The Co-Detailing Agreement would not be assignable by Protagonist without the consent of Xxxxxxx, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed with respect to assignment to an Affiliate of Protagonist. The Co-Detailing Agreement would terminate in the event of the occurrence of a Restricted Change of Control of Protagonist if Xxxxxxx terminates Protagonist’s rights as set forth in Section 5.6.2(b).

(10)Protagonist would have the right to terminate its obligations under the Co-Detailing Agreement on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis upon [ * ] prior written notice (or sooner, at Xxxxxxx’x election).

This Agreement has been executed by the Parties as of the Restatement Effective Date, with the Parties’ mutual intent that on the Restatement Effective Date, the Existing Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in, and thereupon superseded by, this Agreement.

12.3.1.A Party (the “Terminating Party”) may terminate this Agreement in its entirety if the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) has materially breached this Agreement and such material breach has not been cured within [ * ] (or, if the basis of such material breach is failure to make payment, [ * ]) after written notice of such breach is given by the Terminating Party to the Breaching Party (the “Cure Period”). The written notice describing the alleged material breach shall provide sufficient detail to put the Breaching Party on notice of such material breach. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.3.1 shall become effective at the end of the Cure Period unless the Breaching Party has cured any such material breach prior to the expiration of such Cure Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such breach (other than a breach of payment obligations) is capable of being cured but is not reasonably able to be cured within the Cure Period, such termination shall not become effective until the earlier of the date such breach is cured or [ * ] after notice of termination is given pursuant to this Section 12.3.1, provided that (a) the Breaching Party notifies the other Party of its plan for curing such breach during the Cure Period, (b) the Breaching Party commences such plan during the Cure Period and

(c) the Breaching Party uses diligent efforts to perform such plan and cure such breach as soon as reasonably practicable.

12.3.2.If the Parties reasonably and in good faith disagree as to whether there has been a material breach or a cure thereof, the Party that disputes whether there has been a material breach or a cure may contest the allegation in accordance with Article 13.

During the pendency of such Dispute, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect and the Parties shall continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder; provided that the Parties’ performance of their respective obligations and exercise of their respective rights hereunder that specify a date by which such obligations must be performed or such rights must be exercised shall be tolled through the resolution of such Dispute pursuant to Article 13 and for 10 days thereafter.

Whenever Protagonist or any of its successors or assigns provides to Xxxxxxx any of the intellectual property licensed hereunder (or any embodiment thereof) pursuant to this Section 12.4.2, Xxxxxxx shall have the right to perform Protagonist’s obligations hereunder with respect to such intellectual property, but neither such provision nor such performance by Xxxxxxx shall release Protagonist from liability resulting from rejection of the license or the failure to perform such obligations. Protagonist (in any capacity, including debtor-in-possession) and its successors and assigns (including a trustee) shall not interfere with Xxxxxxx’x rights under this Agreement, or any agreement supplemental hereto, to such intellectual property (including such embodiments), including any right to obtain such intellectual property (or such embodiments) from another entity, to the extent provided in Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(d)All rights, powers and remedies of Xxxxxxx provided herein are in addition to and not in substitution for any and all other rights, powers and remedies now or

hereafter existing at law or in equity (including the Bankruptcy Code) in the event of the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Protagonist.

13.3.3.The arbitration tribunal shall consist of three (3) arbitrators, of whom each Party shall designate one in accordance with the “screened” appointment procedure provided in CPR Rule 5.4.

13.3.4.The hearing on the merits shall be concluded within [ * ] after the initial prehearing conference and the award shall be rendered within [ * ] of the conclusion of the hearing, or of any post-hearing briefing, which briefing shall be completed by both sides within [ * ] after the conclusion of the hearing, unless the arbitrator(s) determine(s), in a reasoned decision, that the interest of justice or the complexity of the case requires that the time limit for concluding the hearing on the merits and/or rendering the award be extended.

13.3.5.

13.3.7.The arbitrator(s) shall decide the merits of any Dispute in accordance with the law governing this Agreement, without application of any principle of conflict of laws that would result in reference to a different law. The arbitrator(s) may not apply principles such as “amiable compositeur” or “natural justice and equity.”

13.3.8.The arbitrator(s) are expressly empowered to decide dispositive motions in advance of any hearing and shall endeavor to decide such motions as would a United States District Court Judge sitting in the jurisdiction whose substantive law governs.

13.4.Waiver of Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL OF ANY ISSUE BY JURY.

Article 14

MISCELLANEOUS

14.1.Performance by Affiliates. To the extent that this Agreement imposes obligations on Affiliates of a Party, such Party agrees to cause its Affiliates to perform such obligations. A Party may use one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations and duties or exercise its rights hereunder, provided that such Party will remain directly liable hereunder for the prompt payment and performance of all their respective obligations and duties hereunder. Any breach by an Affiliate of a Party of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate.

14.2.Entire Agreement.

14.2.1.Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the amendment and restatement of the Existing Agreement shall not affect any rights or obligations of the Parties that accrued under (a) the Original Agreement between the Original Execution Date and May 7, 2019 (b) the Existing Agreement between May 7, 2019 and the Restatement Effective Date.

14.2.2.Subject to Section 14.2.1, this Agreement together with the Schedules and Exhibits hereto constitute and contain the entire understanding and agreement of the Parties respecting the subject matter of this Agreement and cancels and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, correspondence, understandings and agreements between the Parties respecting such subject matter (including the Nondisclosure Agreement, provided that all information shared by the Parties or their Affiliates pursuant

to such Nondisclosure Agreement shall be deemed Confidential Information of the disclosing Party under this Agreement, and the use and disclosure thereof shall be governed by Article 9 and each Party shall retain all rights and remedies available at law or equity with respect to any breach of the Non-Disclosure Agreement occurring prior to the Original Execution Date, whether oral or written, regarding such subject matter).

14.3.Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments and to do all such other acts as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

14.4.Binding Effect. This Agreement and the rights granted herein will be binding upon, and will inure to the benefit of Janssen, Protagonist and their respective lawful successors and permitted assigns.

14.5.Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement in its entirety or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that:

(a)either Party may assign or transfer this Agreement in its entirety or any rights or obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of such Party without the other Party’s consent;

(b)either Party may assign or transfer this Agreement in its entirety to a Third Party acquirer of that portion of its business relating to the subject matter of this Agreement in a sale of assets or other similar transaction without the other Party’s consent; and

(c)either Party may assign or transfer this Agreement in its entirety pursuant to any Change of Control of such Party

The assigning Party shall provide the other Party with prompt written notice of any such assignment pursuant to Section 14.5(a), Section 14.5(b) or Section 14.5(c). Any permitted assignment shall be binding on the successors and permitted assignees of the assigning Party, and the successor (if the successor is an entity other than a Party) or assignee shall confirm the same in writing to the other Party. Any assignment, transfer or attempted assignment or transfer by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section 14.5 shall be null, void and of no legal effect.

14.6.Use of Names. Neither Party shall use the name, physical likeness, employee names or Trademarks of the other Party for any purpose without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to prevent either Party from using the name of the other Party for purposes of preparing necessary filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or complying with its regulations, or other regulations applicable to the public sale of securities, including preparing proxy statements or prospectuses, or in connection with the attribution of data in accordance with good scientific practices. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as granting either Party any rights or license to use any of the other Party’s Trademarks without separate, express written permission of the owner of such Trademark.

14.7.Amendment; No Waiver. No waiver, modification or amendment of any provision of this Agreement will be valid or effective unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of each Party. The failure of either Party to assert a right hereunder or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse a similar subsequent failure to perform any such term or condition.

14.8.Force Majeure Event. Any delay in performance by a Party under this Agreement shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement if and to the extent such performance is prevented by occurrences beyond the reasonable control of the Party affected, including acts of God, embargoes, governmental restrictions (other than those imposed as a result of such Party’s failure to comply with Applicable Law), strikes or other concerted acts of workers, fire, flood, earthquakes, explosions, pandemics, riots, wars, civil disorder, rebellion or sabotage (but not including delays incident to the ordinary course of drug development); provided, however, the payment of invoices due and owing hereunder may not be delayed by the payor because of a force majeure affecting the payor. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Development Plans attached to this Agreement reflect any expected delays in performance related to the COVID-19 pandemic that is ongoing on the Restatement Effective Date. The Party suffering such occurrence shall immediately notify the other Party, and any time for performance hereunder shall be extended by the actual time of delay caused by the occurrence so long as the nonperforming Party has not caused such event(s) to occur and takes reasonable efforts to remove the condition. In the event that the suspension of performance continues for [ * ] after the date such force majeure commences, the Parties shall meet to discuss in good faith how to proceed in order to accomplish the objectives of this Agreement.

14.9.Independent Contractors. Neither Party is, nor will be deemed to be, an employee, agent or legal representative of the other Party for any purpose. Neither Party will be entitled to enter into any contracts in the name of, or on behalf of the other Party, nor will a Party be entitled to pledge the credit of the other Party in any way or hold itself out as having authority to do so. It is expressly agreed that Protagonist, on the one hand, and Janssen, on the other hand, are independent contractors, and that this Agreement is an arm’s-length agreement between the Parties and shall not constitute or be construed as a partnership, joint venture or agency. All individuals employed by a Party shall be employees of that Party and not of the other Party and all costs and obligations incurred by reason of such employment shall be for the account and expense of such Party.

14.10.Notices and Deliveries. Any notice, delivery or other communication required or permitted to be given to either Party hereto shall be in writing unless otherwise specified and shall be deemed to have been properly given and to be effective on the date delivered, if delivered personally, or on the next business day after being sent by reputable overnight courier (with delivery tracking provided, signature required and delivery prepaid), in each case to the other Party at the following address (or such other address as a Party may specify in writing pursuant to this Section 14.10):

If any provision of this Agreement is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other provision hereof, and this Agreement will be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein. The Parties will in such an instance use their reasonable efforts to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable provision that accomplishes, as nearly as possible, the original intention of the Parties with respect thereto.

14.13.Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference to its choice of laws or conflicts of laws provisions.
