ARTICLE I:      SCOPE OF THE AGREEMENT

A.           Background

Amyris has been a leader in the synthetic biology technologies, using living organisms as “factories” or “manufacturing systems” to produce compounds. Although the synthetic biology movement has been intermittently successful in certain directed endeavors, there has been insufficient effort toward standardizing and optimizing synthetic biology tools, procedures and platforms. By focusing on the same principles that made the United States the leaders in traditional manufacturing, namely consistent engineering and efficiency, Amyris seeks, through funding in this Agreement , to research and develop a state of the art development cycle for an enhanced engineering cycle to realize living foundries. Amyris aims to achieve these innovations by developing tools increasing the speed of engineered DNA and microbes while simultaneously expanding the scope of the living systems that are readily engineered. Engineering living systems is slow, expensive, and unreliable. Even for seemingly straightforward applications such as developing a fermentable microbe capable of turning sugar into higher value chemicals can take many hundreds of person-years of effort. For example, genetic engineering has enabled the microbial production of non-native natural products such as 1,3-propanediol made in engineered E. coli (~575 years of effort) or artemisinic acid made in engineered S. cerevisiae (~130 years of effort).

For microbes to become a routine manufacture paradigm, offering an alternative to traditional chemicals and petroleum feedstocks, and for living systems eventually to enable novel commercial and military applications (self-healing or corrosion-resistant materials) the effort and expense associated with developing new applications must be reduced by an order of magnitude. This entire enterprise is in its infancy and the work required to reduce the time and effort needed to develop a new microbe is risky and at odds with the work also needed to bring a product to market in a one-off manner, the chief goal of any company seeking to capitalize on the technology. This Agreement supports research with a long-term perspective to support that entire industry by funding efforts that will enable everyone to do more with less.

B.           Definitions

Agreement: The body of this Agreement and Attachments 1 – 4, which are expressly incorporated in and made a part of the Agreement.

Collaborators: A third party in a contractual arrangement with the Performer whereby Amyris has agreed to jointly research, develop and/or commercialize and has an active role in such arrangement. For the avoidance of doubt, an “active role” by Amyris is a contractual relationship (1) that involves more than the mere transfer of intellectual property, and (2) where Amyris has a significant participation in decisionmaking and/or funding of the activities. Collaborators include all parties in collaborations with Amyris as of the effective date, even if the collaboration is modified or amended after the effective date.

Data: Recorded information, regardless of form or method of recording, which includes but is not limited to, technical data, software, and trade secrets. The term does not include financial, administrative, cost, pricing or management information and does not include Subject Inventions, included in Article VII.

Foreign Firm or Institution: A firm or institution organized or existing under the laws of a country other than the United States, its territories, or possessions. The term includes, for purposes of this
 
 
4 of 23

 
Agreement, any agency or instrumentality of a foreign government; and firms, institutions or business organizations which are owned or substantially controlled by foreign governments, firms, institutions, or individuals.

Government: The United States of America, as represented by DARPA.

Government Purpose Rights: The rights to use, duplicate, or disclose Data, in whole or in part and in any manner, for Government purposes only, and to have or permit others to do so for Government purposes only.

Government Purpose: Any activity in which the United States Government is a party, including cooperative agreements with international or multi-national defense organizations or sales or transfers by the United States Government to foreign governments or international organizations. Government purposes include competitive procurement, but do not include the rights to use, modify, reproduce, release, perform, display, or disclose Data for commercial purposes or authorize others to do so.

Invention: Any invention or discovery which is or may be patentable or otherwise protectable under Title 35 of the United States Code.

Know-How: All information including, but not limited to discoveries, formulas, materials, Inventions, processes, ideas, approaches, concepts, techniques, methods, software, programs, documentation, procedures, firmware, hardware, technical data, specifications, devices, apparatus and machines.

Limited Rights: The rights to use, modifiy, reproduce, release, perform, display, or disclose Data, in whole or in part, within the Government. The Government may not, without the written permission of the party asserting limited rights, release or disclose the Data outside the Government.

Made: Relates to any Invention means the conception or first actual reduction to practice of such Invention.

Performer: AMYRIS, INC. a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware with its principal place of business at 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, California 94608

Practical Application: To manufacture, in the case of a composition of product; to practice, in the case of a process or method, or to operate, in the case of a machine or system; and, in each case, under such conditions as to establish that the Invention is capable of being utilized and that its benefits are, to the extent permitted by law or Government regulations, available to the public on reasonable terms. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that “practical application” under this Agreement may not include actual commercialization of Subject Inventions hereunder because such Subject Inventions are likely to be research tools and platforms (e.g., it is envisioned that the tools and platforms resulting from the research carried out under this agreement will later – outside of this agreement - be used by the performer to develop commercial products).

Program: Research and development being conducted by the Performer, as set forth in Article I., paragraph C.

Property: Any tangible personal property other than property actually consumed during the execution of work under this agreement.
 
 
5 of 23

 
Subject Invention: Any Invention conceived or first actually reduced to practice in the performance of work under this Agreement that is capable of use as a tool for making or altering a genetically modified organism, provided however, any Inventions, regardless when conceived or reduced to practice, covering the genetically modified organism, a strain, or any compound or product made by or from an organism or strain shall not be considered “Subject Inventions” hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, no work performed prior to the effective date of this Agreement shall be considered performed “under this Agreement.”

Technology: Discoveries, innovations, Know-How and Inventions, whether patentable or not, including computer software, recognized under U.S. law as intellectual creations to which rights of ownership accrue, including, but not limited to, patents, trade secrets, and copyrights developed under this Agreement.

Unlimited Rights: Rights to use, duplicate, release, or disclose, Data in whole or in part, in any manner and for any purposes whatsoever, and to have or permit others to do so.

C.           Scope

1.           Amyris, Inc. (hereafter “the Performer”) shall perform a research and development program (Program) designed to develop improved DNA assembly and integration across platforms. The research shall be carried out in accordance with the Statement of Work incorporated in this Agreement as Attachment 1. The Performer shall submit or otherwise provide all documentation required by Attachment 2, Report Requirements.

2.           The Performer shall be paid for each Payable Milestone accomplished in accordance with the Schedule of Payments and Payable Milestones set forth in Attachment 3 and the procedures of Article V. Both the Schedule of Payments and the Funding Schedule set forth in Attachments 3 and 4 respectively may be revised or updated in accordance with Article III, subject to mutual agreement of the Parties.

3.           The Government and the Performer estimate that the Statement of Work of this Agreement can only be accomplished with a Performer aggregate resource contribution of

D.           Goals / Objectives

1.           The goal of this Agreement is for the Government to fund a performance-based effort by the Performer to investigate and create platforms for increasing the speed of engineering DNA and microbes while simultaneously expanding the scope of the living systems that are readily engineered.

2.           The Government will have continuous involvement with the Performer. The Government will also obtain access to research results and certain rights in data and patents pursuant to Articles VII and VIII. DARPA and the Performer are bound to each other by a duty of good faith and best research effort in achieving the goals of the Program.

3.           This Agreement is an "other transaction" pursuant to 10 U.S.C. § 2371. The Parties agree that the principal purpose of this Agreement is for the Government to support and stimulate the Performer to provide their best effort in advanced research and technology development and not for the acquisition of property or services for the direct benefit or use of the Government. This Agreement can best be described as an accumulation of expenses approach with payments tied to Fixed Payable Milestones. The Performer will be paid for each Payable Milestone accomplished in accordance with the Schedule of Payments and Payable Milestones set forth in Attachment 3 and the procedures of Article V. The Schedule of Payments and Payable Milestones may be revised or updated in accordance with Article III. This Agreement is not intended to be, nor shall it be construed as, by implication or otherwise, a partnership, a corporation, or other business organization.

ARTICLE II:     TERM

A.           Term of this Agreement

The Program commences upon the date of the last signature hereon and continues for:

Phase 1 – Twelve (12) months.
Phase 2 (Exercised via P00005) – Twenty-two (22) months from date of option exercise.

If all funds are expended prior to the duration of any Phase of the Agreement, the Parties have no obligation to continue performance and may elect to cease development at that point.

Provisions of this Agreement, which, by their express terms or by necessary implication, apply for periods of time other than specified herein, shall be given effect, notwithstanding this Article.

B.           Termination Provisions

Subject to a reasonable determination that the program will not produce beneficial results commensurate with the expenditure of resources, either Party may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other Party, provided that such written notice is preceded by consultation between the Parties. In the event of a termination of the Agreement, it is agreed that disposition of Data developed under this Agreement, shall be in accordance with the provisions set forth in Article VIII, Data Rights. The Government and the Performer will negotiate in good faith a reasonable and timely adjustment of all outstanding issues between the Parties as a result of termination. Failure of the Parties to agree to a reasonable adjustment will be resolved pursuant to Article VI, Disputes. The Government has no obligation to pay the Performer beyond the last completed and paid milestone if the Performer decides to terminate. For the avoidance of doubt, any such termination does not require repayment of milestone amounts already received by Performer.
 
 
7 of 23

 
C. Extending the Term (Phase 2)

The Parties may extend by mutual written agreement the term of this Agreement if funding availability and research opportunities reasonably warrant. Any extension shall be formalized through modification of the Agreement by the Agreements Officer and the Performer’s Administrator.

(i) The Government may extend the term of this agreement by written notice to the Performer within 12 months; provided that the Government gives the Performer a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend at least 14 days before the agreement expires. The preliminary notice does not commit the Government to an extension.

(ii) If the Government exercises this option, the extended agreement shall be considered to include this article.

(iii) The total duration of this agreement, including the exercise of any options under this article, shall not exceed 34 months.

Any interest earned shall be remitted annually to the DARPA Agreements Officer, or designee. Interest payments shall be made payable to the U. S. Treasury. Interest amounts less than $250 per year may be retained by the Performer for administrative expenses.

5. Payments will be made by the cognizant Defense Agencies Financial Services office, as indicated below, within thirty (30) calendar days of an accepted invoice in Wide Area Workflow (WAWF). Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) is a secure web-based system for electronic invoicing, receipt and acceptance. The WAWF application enables electronic form submission of invoices, government inspection, and acceptance documents in order to support DoD’s goal of moving to a paperless acquisition process. Authorized DoD users are notified of pending actions by e-mail and are presented with a collection of documents required to process the contracting or financial action. It uses Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to electronically bind the digital signature to provide non-reputable proof that the user (electronically) signed the document with the contents. Benefits include online access and full spectrum view of document status, minimized re-keying and improving data accuracy, eliminating unmatched disbursements and making all documentation required for payment easily accessible.

The Performer is required to utilize the Wide Area Workflow system when processing invoices and receiving reports under this Agreement. The Performer shall (i) ensure an Electronic Business Point of Contact is designated in Central Contractor Registration at http://www.ccr.gov and (ii) register to use WAWF–RA at the https://wawf.eb.mil site, within ten (10) calendar days after award of this Agreement. Step by Step procedures to register are available at the https://wawf.eb.mil site. The Performer is directed to use the “2-in-1” format when processing invoices.

ARTICLE VI:      DISPUTES

A.           General

The Parties shall communicate with one another in good faith and in a timely and cooperative manner
when raising issues under this Article.

B.           Dispute Resolution Procedures

1.           Any disagreement, claim or dispute between DARPA and the Performer concerning questions of fact or law arising from or in connection with this Agreement, and, whether or not involving an alleged breach of this Agreement, may be raised only under this Article.

2.           Whenever disputes, disagreements, or misunderstandings arise, the Parties shall attempt to resolve the issue(s) involved by discussion and mutual agreement as soon as practicable. In no event shall a dispute, disagreement or misunderstanding which arose more than three (3) months prior to the notification made under subparagraph B.3 of this article constitute the basis for relief under this article unless the Director of DARPA in the interests of justice waives this requirement.

3.           Failing resolution by mutual agreement, the aggrieved Party shall document the dispute, disagreement, or misunderstanding by notifying the other Party (through the DARPA Agreements Officer or the Performer’s Administrator, as the case may be) in writing of the relevant facts, identify unresolved issues, and specify the clarification or remedy sought. Within five (5) working days after providing notice to the other Party, the aggrieved Party may, in writing, request a joint decision by the DARPA Senior Procurement Executive, and senior executive (no lower than Vice President, Legal) appointed by the Performer. The other Party shall submit a written position on the matter(s) in dispute within thirty (30) calendar days after being notified that a decision has been requested. The DARPA Senior Procurement Executive, and the senior executive shall conduct a review of the matter(s) in dispute and render a decision in writing within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of such written position. Any such joint decision is final and binding.

4.           In the absence of a joint decision, upon written request to the Director of DARPA, made within thirty (30) calendar days of the expiration of the time for a decision under subparagraph B.3 above, the dispute shall be further reviewed. The Director of DARPA may elect to conduct this review personally or through a designee or jointly with a senior executive (no lower than (Vice President, Legal)
 
 
13 of 23

 
level) appointed by the Performer. Following the review, the Director of DARPA or designee will resolve the issue(s)and notify the Parties in writing. Such resolution is not subject to further administrative review and, to the extent permitted by law, shall be final and binding.

C.           Limitation of Damages

Claims for damages of any nature whatsoever pursued under this Agreement shall be limited to direct damages only up to the aggregate amount of DARPA funding disbursed as of the time the dispute arises. In no event shall DARPA be liable for claims for consequential, punitive, special and incidental damages, claims for lost profits, or other indirect damages.

ARTICLE VII:    PATENT RIGHTS

A.           Allocation of Principal Rights

Unless the Performer shall have notified DARPA (in accordance with subparagraph B.2 below) that the Performer does not intend to retain title, the Performer shall retain the entire right, title, and interest throughout the world to each Subject Invention consistent with the provisions of this Article and 35 U.S.C. § 202. With respect to any Subject Invention in which the Performer retains title, DARPA shall have a nonexclusive, nontransferable, irrevocable, paid-up license to practice or have practiced on behalf of the United States the Subject Invention throughout the world.

B.           Invention Disclosure, Election of Title, and Filing of Patent Application

1.           The Performer shall disclose each Subject Invention to DARPA within four (4) months after the inventor discloses it in writing to his company personnel responsible for patent matters or, in the case of no internal writing from the inventor, within two (2) months after filing a provisional application, provided however that in the event the Performer does not file a provisional application, it shall disclose the Subject Invention to DARPA within two (2) months of determining that a particular set of experiments and or data qualify as a Subject Invention. The disclosure to DARPA shall be in the form of a written report and shall identify the Agreement under which the Subject Invention was made and the identity of the inventor(s). It shall be sufficiently complete in technical detail to convey a clear understanding to the extent known at the time of the disclosure, of the nature, purpose, operation, and the physical, chemical, biological, or electrical characteristics of the invention. The disclosure shall also identify any publication, sale, or public use of the invention and whether a manuscript describing the invention has been submitted for publication and, if so, whether it has been accepted for publication at the time of disclosure. The Performer shall also submit to DARPA an annual listing of Subject Inventions.

2.           If the Performer determines that it does not intend to retain title to any such Subject Invention, the Performer shall notify DARPA, in writing, within eight (8) months of disclosure to DARPA. However, in any case where publication, sale, or public use has initiated the one (1)-year statutory period wherein valid patent protection can still be obtained in the United States, the period for such notice may be shortened by DARPA to a date that is no more than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the end of the statutory period.

3.           The Performer shall file its initial patent application on a Subject Invention to which it elects to retain title within one (1) year after election of title or, if earlier, prior to the end of the statutory period wherein valid patent protection can be obtained in the United States after a publication, or sale, or
 
 
14 of 23

 
public use. The Performer may elect to file patent applications in additional countries (including the European Patent Office and the Patent Cooperation Treaty) within either ten (10) months of the corresponding initial patent application or six (6) months from the date permission is granted by the Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks to file foreign patent applications, where such filing has been prohibited by a Secrecy Order.

4.           Requests for extension of the time for disclosure election, and filing under Article VII, paragraph C, may, at the discretion of DARPA, and after considering the position of the Performer, be granted.

C.           Conditions When the Government May Obtain Title

Upon DARPA’s written request, the Performer shall convey title to any Subject Invention to DARPA under any of the following conditions:

1.           If the Performer fails to disclose or elects not to retain title to the Subject Invention within the times specified in paragraph C of this Article; provided, that DARPA may only request title within sixty (60) calendar days after learning of the failure of the Performer to disclose or elect within the specified times.

2.           In those countries in which the Performer fails to file patent applications within the times specified in paragraph B of this Article; provided, that if the Performer has filed a patent application in a country after the times specified in paragraph B of this Article, but prior to its receipt of the written request by DARPA, the Performer shall continue to retain title in that country; or

3.           In any country in which the Performer decides not to continue the prosecution of any application for, to pay the maintenance fees on, or defend in reexamination or opposition proceedings on, a patent on a Subject Invention.

D.           Minimum Rights to the Performer and Protection of the Performer’s Right to File

1.           The Performer shall retain a nonexclusive, royalty-free license throughout the world in each Subject Invention to which the Government obtains title, except if the Performer fails to disclose the invention within the times specified in paragraph B of this Article. The Performer’s license extends to subsidiaries and affiliates and Collaborators, if any, within the corporate structure of which the Performer is a party and includes the right to grant licenses of the same scope to the extent that the Performer was legally obligated to do so at the time the Agreement was awarded. The license is transferable only with the approval of DARPA, except when transferred to the successor of that part of the business to which the invention pertains. DARPA approval for license transfer shall not be unreasonably withheld.

2.           The Performer’s license may be revoked or modified by DARPA to the extent necessary to achieve expeditious practical application of the Subject Invention pursuant to an application for an exclusive license submitted consistent with appropriate provisions at 37 CFR Part 404. This license shall not be revoked at any time when the Performer continues to practice the general technology developed hereunder in pursuit of commercial goals, including the goal of making the products derived from such platforms reasonably accessible to the public.

3            Before revocation or modification of the license, DARPA shall furnish the Performer a written notice of its intention to revoke or modify the license, and the Performer shall be allowed thirty
 
 
15 of 23

 
(30) calendar days (or such other time as may be authorized for good cause shown) after the notice to show cause why the license should not be revoked or modified.

E.           Action to Protect the Government’s Interest

1.           The Performer agrees to execute or to have executed and promptly deliver to DARPA all instruments necessary to (i) establish or confirm the rights the Government has throughout the world in those Subject Inventions to which the Performer elects to retain title, and (ii) convey title to DARPA when requested under paragraph D of this Article and to enable the Government to obtain patent protection throughout the world in that Subject Invention.

2.           The Performer agrees to require, by written agreement, its employees, other than clerical and non-technical employees, to disclose promptly in writing to personnel identified as responsible for the administration of patent matters and in a format suggested by the Performer each Subject Invention made under this Agreement in order that the Performer can comply with the disclosure provisions of paragraph C of this Article. The Performer shall instruct employees, through employee agreements or other suitable educational programs, on the importance of reporting inventions in sufficient time to permit the filing of patent applications prior to U. S. or foreign statutory bars.

3.           The Performer shall notify DARPA of any decisions not to continue the prosecution of a patent application, pay maintenance fees, or defend in a reexamination or opposition proceedings on a patent, in any country, not less than thirty (30) calendar days before the expiration of the response period required by the relevant patent office.

4.           The Performer shall include, within the specification of any United States patent application and any patent issuing thereon covering a Subject Invention, the following statement: “This invention was made with Government support under Agreement HR0011-12-3-0006, awarded by DARPA. The Government has certain rights in the invention.”

F.           Lower Tier Agreements

The Performer shall include this Article, suitably modified, to identify the Parties, in all subcontracts or lower tier agreements, regardless of tier, for experimental, developmental, or research work.

G.           Reporting on Utilization of Subject Inventions

 
1.
The Performer agrees to submit, during the term of the Agreement, an annual report on the general subject matter research at Performer or its Collaborators, licensees or assignees in connection with utilization of a Subject Invention or on efforts at obtaining such utilization that is being made by the Performer or its Collaborators, licensees or assignees. Such reports shall include information regarding the general fields of potential products where such Subject Inventions may ultimately assist in commercial sales. The Performer also agrees to provide additional reports as may be requested by DARPA in connection with any march-in proceedings undertaken by DARPA in accordance with paragraph J of this Article. Consistent with 35 U.S.C. § 202(c)(5), DARPA agrees it shall not disclose such information to persons outside the Government without permission of the Performer.

 
2
All required reporting shall be accomplished, to the extent possible, using the i-Edison reporting website: https://s-edison.info.nih.gov/iEdison/. To the extent any such reporting cannot be
 
 
16 of 23

 
carried out by use of i-Edison, reports and communications shall be submitted to the Agreements Officer and Administrative Agreements Officer.

H.           Preference for American Industry

Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause, the Performer agrees that it shall not grant to any person the exclusive right to use or sell any Subject Invention in the United States or Canada unless such person agrees that any product embodying the Subject Invention or produced through the use of the Subject Invention shall be manufactured substantially in the United States or Canada except when such such rights are in connection with a Collaborator. However, in individual cases, the requirements for such an agreement beyond what is contemplated herein may be waived by DARPA upon a showing by the Performer (1) that reasonable but unsuccessful efforts have been made to grant licenses on similar terms to potential licensees that would be likely to manufacture substantially in the United States or (2) that, under the circumstances, domestic manufacture is not commercially feasible.

I.           March-in Rights

The Performer agrees that, with respect to any Subject Invention in which it has retained title, DARPA has the right to require the Performer, an assignee, or exclusive licensee of a Subject Invention to grant a non-exclusive license to a responsible applicant or applicants, upon terms that are reasonable under the circumstances, and if the Performer, assignee, or exclusive licensee refuses such a request, DARPA has the right to grant such a license itself if DARPA determines that:

1.           Such action is necessary because the Performer or assignee has not taken effective steps, consistent with the intent of this Agreement, to achieve practical application of the Subject Invention;

2.           Such action is necessary to alleviate health or safety needs which are not reasonably satisfied by the Performer, assignee, or their licensees;

3.           Such action is necessary to meet requirements for public use and such requirements are not reasonably satisfied by the Performer, assignee, or licensees; or

4.           Such action is necessary because the agreement required by paragraph (I) of this Article has not been obtained or waived or because a licensee of the exclusive right to use or sell any Subject Invention in the United States is in breach of such Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII:     DATA RIGHTS

A.           Allocation of Principal Rights

1.           This Agreement shall be performed with mixed Government and Performer funding. The Parties agree that in consideration for Government funding, the Performer intends to reduce to practical application items, components and processes developed under this Agreement.

In the event of exercise of the Government’s March-in Rights as set forth under Article VII or subparagraph A.3 of this article, the Performer agrees, upon written request from the Government, to deliver at no additional cost to the Government, all Data necessary to achieve practical application within sixty (60)
 
 
17 of 23

 
calendar days from the date of the written request. The Government shall retain Unlimited Rights, as defined in paragraph A above, to this delivered Data.

3.           The Performer agrees that, with respect to Data necessary to achieve practical application, DARPA has the right to require the Performer to deliver all such Data to DARPA in accordance with its reasonable directions if DARPA determines that:

(a)           Such action is necessary because the Performer or assignee has not taken effective steps, consistent with the intent of this Agreement, to achieve practical application of the technology developed during the performance of this Agreement;

(b)           Such action is necessary to alleviate health or safety needs which are not reasonably satisfied by the Performer, assignee, or their licensees; or

(c)           Such action is necessary to meet requirements for public use and such requirements are not reasonably satisfied by the Performer, assignee, or licensees.

4.           With respect to Data developed, generated or delivered under this Agreement, the Government shall receive Government Purpose Rights, except as noted in subparagraph (5) of this article.

5.           With respect to all Data delivered, in the event of the Government’s exercise of its right under subparagraph B.2 of this article, the Government shall receive Unlimited Rights.

6.           Any pre-existing Data to be utilized and delivered under this Agreement shall be delivered with restrictions as delineated in the Performer Identification and Assertion of Use, Release, or Disclosure Restrictions provided in Attachment 5.

B.           Marking of Data

Pursuant to paragraph B above, any Data delivered under this Agreement shall be marked with the following legend:

Use, duplication, or disclosure is subject to the restrictions as stated in Agreement HR0011-12-3- 0006 between the Government and the Performer.

Living Foundries
 
Improving DNA Assembly and Integration Across Platforms with Better Systems and Tools
 
30 May 2012
(Amended through 10 October 2014)


Advanced Tools and Capabilities for Generalizable Platforms (ATCG) Program Background

Current approaches to engineering biology rely on an ad hoc, laborious, trial-and-error process, wherein one successful project often does not translate to enabling subsequent new designs. As a result, the state of the art development cycle for engineering a new biologically manufactured product often takes 7+ years and tens to hundreds of millions of dollars (e.g. microbial production of artemisinic acid for the treatment of malaria and the non-petroleum-based production 1, 3-propanediol). The impact of current approaches is two-fold. First, the number of new entrants and innovators into the biomanufacturing space is immediately limited – few have the expertise, capital and/or time necessary to develop and engineer a new product. Second, combined with the complexity of biological systems, an ad hoc approach results in one-off efforts limited to modifying only a small set of genes and constructing simple, isolated genetic circuits and metabolic pathways. Consequently, while progress has been made, industry is constrained to producing only a tiny fraction of the vast number of possible chemicals, materials, and functional systems that would be enabled by the ability to truly engineer biology. A new approach is needed.

This new approach is Living Foundries: develop and apply an engineering framework to biology that decouples biological design from fabrication, yields design rules and tools, and manages biological complexity through abstraction and standardization. One analogy is that Living Foundries aims to do for biological design what verylarge-scale integration (VLSI) did for integrated circuits. Applying an engineering framework to biology will remove barriers to researchers outside the biological sciences, bringing diverse expertise and new methods to biological design. The best innovations will introduce new architectures and tools that will form the foundational technology for engineering biology.

The vision of Living Foundries is one where new and multiple cellular functions are readily constructed, combined, and controlled by an integrated genetic circuitry. The ultimate effect of which will be to open up the full space of biologically produced materials and systems. To achieve this, new tools, technologies and methodologies that directly address our current limitations and expand our capabilities must be developed. The outcome should be an open technology platform that integrates these tools and capabilities, allowing new designs to rapidly move from conception to execution.

Advanced Tools and Capabilities for Generalizable Platforms, (ATCG) seeks translatable tools that can serve as parts of an “end-to-end platform” to support rapid, specific in its goals: DARPA seeks new technology to enable low-cost and rapid DNA synthesis and assembly, especially to shorten the design-test cycle surrounding the ambitious constructs that characterize the broadest visions in modern synthetic biology.

Task G (Bio-safety/Security)

Task Background: The research and engineering depicted in this Statement of Work seeks to make existing capabilities (e.g. genetic modification of microbes to produce commodity chemicals) more efficient with the intended purpose of speeding the development of Living Foundries. The goal of this research is to make better engineering tools, and not to produce microbes that may have Dual-Use potential. As noted in the performer’s technical proposal, a review of the research activities identified within this Statement of Work determined that this project will not enable technologies that are related to human, animal, or plant health. The performer’s choice of potential chassis or hosts will be made from amongst the list of microbes that, prior to genetic modification, are designated safely handled in a Biosafety Level 1 facility. Additionally, the resulting genetically modified organisms have no selective advantage in the environment.
 
Metrics/Completion Criteria: The performer shall demonstrate throughout the program that all methods and demonstrations of capability comply with national guidance for manipulation of genes and organisms and follow all guidance for biological safety and biosecurity. Demonstrations and testbeds must meet any applicable regulations designed to protect human health and the environment promulgated by the Environmental Protection Agency, National Institutes of Health, or other relevant agencies of the Federal Government. The performer shall use, store, and destroy biological material in accordance with all applicable regulations.
 
Deliverable: Include as part of the required monthly technical status reports an on-going status of efforts to develop and/or carry out their Advanced Tools and Capabilities for Generalizable Platforms (ATCG) Bio-Safety and Security plan.
 
 
[*] Certain portions denoted with an asterisk have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

Task H (Intellectual Property and Data Sharing)

Task Background: It is the goal of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) that its investment in the tools and capabilities developed under the ATCG program to be multiplied many-fold by adoption and improvement by researchers across the United States. In order to achieve this vision, the Living Foundries program aims to facilitate interoperability and open the field to new entrants.

Metrics/Completion Criteria: To facilitate interoperability, all applicable design tools and databases developed under the ATCG program should be compatible with Synthetic Biology Open Language (SBOL) core data model. The Performer shall make available the technologies developed under the ATCG effort to the broader synthetic biology community by presenting its ATCG research data at public meetings/conferences/workshops and publishing results in peer-reviewed journal articles. At a minimum, the types of information that will be made available to the broader synthetic biology community are as discussed below:

(i) Data and analysis necessary to evaluate the utility of the technologies, as well as standard operating procedures and design specifications enabling others to reconstitute the equipment, set up, and approaches developed.

(ii) The results of Design of Experiment work to arrive at the conditions for the best performance for untested or early stage technologies, describing the correlation between:

 
DNA ligase cycling parameters and the complexity, size, and success rate of the assembled full length DNA constructs.
 
Reaction parameters and the success and cost of performing sequencing QC on DNA assemblies.
 
Designer nuclease number, type, and targeting site and the integration efficiency in to the chassis genome.

(iii) Details required for both technical evaluation and transfer, including: full protocols, technical drawings of equipment built and specifications met, data on accuracy and precision of these systems, and results on procedures performed against large number of samples to investigate the robustness and readiness of the approaches for broader distribution – providing a trained reader with the information needed to recapitulate the methods and results described. In addition, the Principal Investigator shall be available to consult with third parties seeking to replicate the results.

If the work performed under this Statement of Work results in one or more patents, the Performer shall grant licenses on a royalty-free basis to academic and non-profit institutions. Additionally, the Performer shall make licenses available to commercial entities outside its key business areas.

Deliverable/s: The Performer shall include as part of required monthly technical status reports an on-going status of efforts to develop and/or carry out their proposed ATCG Intellectual Property and Data Sharing plan. Reporting shall include a summary of data sharing activities that have taken place during the reporting period and any data sharing activities planned to take place within three months of the reporting period. Reporting shall include a listing of the performers Subject Invention disclosures, Subject Invention patent applications and a brief discussion summarizing plans, if any, to license the resulting technology (e.g., intent and rationale regarding whether the performer intends to seek non-exclusive licensing, exclusive licensing for a particular field of use, or exclusive licensing across the board, etc.).
