Such collaboration and information sharing shall be achieved primarily through the Strategic Collaboration Committee, in accordance with this Article 2.

2.2 Scope of Collaboration. This Agreement and the collaboration contemplated hereby shall relate to all of Aimmune’s Development Programs, including those existing as of the Original Effective Date and those undertaken from time-to-time during the Term, and commercialization plans for AR101; provided, however, that (i) in the event that Aimmune effects a Transfer in respect of an Aimmune Product under Development pursuant to a particular Development Program in all Major Territories, such Development Program shall automatically be excluded from the scope of this Agreement and the collaboration contemplated hereunder, (ii) in the event that Aimmune effects a Transfer in respect of an Aimmune Product under Development pursuant to a particular Development Program in one (1) or more, but not all, Major Territories, then the scope of this Agreement and the collaboration contemplated hereunder shall automatically be adjusted to exclude such Development Program solely in respect of such Major Territory(ies) in respect of which Aimmune has effected such Transfer in respect of such Aimmune Product, and (iii) in the event Aimmune effects a Transfer in respect of the commercialization of AR101 in one (1) or more countries, then the scope of this Agreement and the collaboration contemplated hereunder shall automatically be adjusted to exclude the country(ies) in respect of which Aimmune has effected such Transfer in respect of such Aimmune Product. Aimmune shall disclose to NHSc each new Development Program upon Aimmune’s decision to commence such Development Program and such new Development Program shall automatically be included within the scope of this Agreement and the collaboration contemplated hereby. All Development Programs or parts thereof, as well as commercialization plans for AR101 that are conducted during the Term, in each case that are within the scope of this Agreement at a particular time during the Term, in accordance with this Section 2.2, are referred to herein as the “In-Scope Programs”. For clarity, In-Scope Programs shall not include any products or programs of any counterparty in a Change of Control of Aimmune that were not Aimmune Products or Development Programs immediately preceding the closing of the relevant Change of Control.

2.3 Formation and Composition of the Strategic Collaboration Committee. The governing body for matters within the scope of this Agreement shall be the “Strategic Collaboration Committee” or “SCC”. The SCC shall be comprised of three (3) to five (5) representatives of each Party. The initial members of the SCC shall be:

7

Either Party may replace one (1) or more of its SCC members from time to time with the prior written consent of the other Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Any member of the SCC may designate a substitute to attend and perform the functions of that member at any meeting of the SCC, provided that the other Party has provided its prior written consent to such substitute, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. For clarity, during the Term, the Parties shall consider whether to include alternative members of the SCC having expertise in areas relevant to the collaboration contemplated hereby at such time.

2.4 Role of Strategic Collaboration Committee. The SCC shall serve as a forum for the Parties, through their SCC members, to share information and discuss the In-Scope Programs, including with respect to commercialization plans for AR101. The SCC shall have no decision-making role and neither the SCC nor the SCC members shall have the capacity to bind either Party in any way.

2.5 Information Sharing. At each meeting of the SCC, Aimmune’s representatives shall provide (i) an update on material Development activities in respect of In-Scope Programs, including with respect to material results or data from in vitro and in vivo testing, regulatory developments and strategies, manufacturing activities and commercial plans, and (ii) an overview of Aimmune’s future plans in respect of the In-Scope Programs.

NHSc’s representatives may, but shall not be obligated to, disclose non-public information of NHSc or its Affiliates to Aimmune’s SCC members as further described in Section 2.6. All such information disclosed by NHSc shall be Confidential Information of NHSc.

2.6 Opportunities.

If the receiving Party delivers an Acceptance Notice, then the Parties, through the SCC, shall be free to discuss the New Opportunity, subject to the terms of Article 5 and Article 6, or subject to such alternative or modified terms relating to intellectual property and/or Confidential Information as the Parties may have agreed to in writing prior to the receiving Party’s delivery of such Acceptance Notice.

Neither Party shall obtain any intellectual property or other rights in any Information so disclosed by the other Party with respect to such New Opportunity or in respect of such New Opportunity, unless and until the Parties enter into a separate written agreement in respect thereof.
