(a) Research. Exelixis hereby grants to BMS an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license (without the right to sublicense except to third party contract research providers and manufacturers) under the Exelixis Licensed Know-How and the Exelixis Licensed Patents to research, identify, derivatize, pre-clinically develop, make, have made, and use Licensed Compounds solely for research purposes.

(b) Clinical Development and Commercialization. Exelixis hereby grants to BMS an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license (with the right to sublicense) under the Exelixis Licensed Know-How and Exelixis Licensed Patents to clinically develop, make, have made, use, import, sell, offer to sell and have sold Products incorporating any Licensed Compound.

(c) Exelixis Retained Rights. Exelixis retains all rights to use the Exelixis Licensed Know-How and Exelixis Licensed Patents except those expressly granted to BMS on an exclusive basis under the terms of this Agreement. In addition, notwithstanding the exclusive licenses granted to BMS pursuant to Section 6.1, Exelixis retains the right under the Exelixis Licensed Patents and the Exelixis Licensed Know-How to make, have made, use, and test Exelixis TGR5 Compounds solely for internal research purposes.

(a) All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement, including amendments hereto, by each Party to the other Party are, for all purposes of Section 365(n) of Title 11 of the U.S. Code (“Title 11”), licenses of rights to intellectual property as defined in Title 11. Each Party agrees during the term of this Agreement to create and maintain current copies or, if not amenable to copying, detailed descriptions or other appropriate embodiments, to the extent feasible, of all such intellectual property. If a case is commenced by or against either Party (the “Bankrupt Party”) under Title 11, then, unless and until this Agreement is rejected as provided in Title 11, the Bankrupt Party (in any capacity, including debtor-in-possession) and its successors and assigns (including a Title 11 Trustee) shall, at the election of the Bankrupt Party made within sixty (60) days after the commencement of the case (or, if no such election is made, immediately upon the request of the non-Bankrupt Party) either (i) perform all of the obligations provided in this Agreement to be performed by the Bankrupt Party including, where applicable, providing to the non-Bankrupt Party portions of such intellectual property (including embodiments thereof) held by the Bankrupt Party and such successors and assigns or otherwise available to them or (ii) provide to the non-Bankrupt Party all such intellectual property (including all embodiments thereof) held by the Bankrupt Party and such successors and assigns or otherwise available to them.

Whenever the Bankrupt Party or any of its successors or assigns provides to the non-Bankrupt Party any of the intellectual property licensed hereunder (or any embodiment thereof) pursuant to this Section 13.6, the non-Bankrupt Party shall have the right to perform the obligations of the Bankrupt Party hereunder with respect to such intellectual property, but neither such provision nor such performance by the non-Bankrupt Party shall release the Bankrupt Party from any such obligation or liability for failing to perform it.

(c) All rights, powers and remedies of the non-Bankrupt Party 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 Title 11) in the event of the commencement of a Title 11 case by or against the Bankrupt Party. The non-Bankrupt Party, in addition to the rights, power and remedies expressly provided herein, shall be entitled to exercise all other such rights and powers and resort to all other such remedies as may now or hereafter exist at law or in equity (including under Title 11) in such event. The Parties agree that they intend the foregoing non-Bankrupt Party rights to extend to the maximum extent permitted by law and any provisions of applicable contracts with Third Parties, including for purposes of Title 11, (i) the right of access to any intellectual property (including all embodiments thereof) of the Bankrupt Party or any Third Party with whom the Bankrupt Party contracts to perform an obligation of the Bankrupt Party under this Agreement, and, in the case of the Third Party, which is necessary for the development,

registration and manufacture of Products and (ii) the right to contract directly with any Third Party described in (i) in this sentence to complete the contracted work. Any intellectual property provided pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13.6 shall be subject to the licenses set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and the payment obligations of this Agreement, which shall be deemed to be royalties for purposes of Title 11.

13.7 Force Majeure. Each Party shall be excused from the performance of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such performance is prevented by force majeure (defined below) and the nonperforming Party promptly provides notice of the prevention to the other Party. Such excuse shall be continued so long as the condition constituting force majeure continues and the nonperforming Party takes reasonable efforts to remove the condition. For purposes of this Agreement, “force majeure” shall include conditions beyond the control of the Parties, including an act of God, acts of terrorism, voluntary or involuntary compliance with any regulation, law or order of any government, war, civil commotion, labor strike or lock-out, epidemic, failure or default of public utilities or common carriers, destruction of production facilities or materials by fire, earthquake, storm or like catastrophe.

13.15 No Waiver. Any delay in enforcing a Party’s rights under this Agreement or any waiver as to a particular default or other matter shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s rights to the future enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, excepting only as to an express written and signed waiver as to a particular matter for a particular period of time.

EXELIXIS LICENSES PROGRAMS TO BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBB COMPANY

-Exelixis to receive initial payment of $60 million-

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., October XX, 2010 — Exelixis, Inc. (NASDAQ: EXEL) announced today that it has entered into two new collaboration agreements with Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE:BMY). Under the first agreement, Exelixis will grant to Bristol-Myers Squibb an exclusive license to its small-molecule TGR5 agonist program including backups. Under the second agreement, the companies will collaborate to discover, optimize, and characterize small-molecule ROR antagonists. The companies have also made minor amendments to their XL281 and liver X receptor (LXR) agreements. Finally, under the companies’ cancer collaboration agreement Exelixis has opted to exercise its right to opt out of further co-development of XL139 and will receive an accelerated milestone payment.

Under the terms of the new agreements, Bristol-Myers Squibb will make a combined initial payment of $60 million to Exelixis. Exelixis will be eligible for potential development and approval milestone payments of up to $250 million on TGR5 and $255 million on the ROR antagonists. Exelixis will also be eligible for combined sales performance milestones, and royalties on net sales of products from each of the TGR5 and ROR programs. Bristol-Myers Squibb will receive an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize small molecule TGR5 agonists and ROR antagonists. Under the TGR5 agreement, Bristol-Myers Squibb will have sole responsibility for research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization. Under the ROR agreement, Bristol-Myers Squibb and Exelixis will collaborate on ROR antagonist programs up to a pre-clinical transition point and then Bristol-Myers Squibb will have sole responsibility for the further research, development, manufacture, and commercialization.

Exelixis is granting rights to the ROR program in exchange for Bristol-Myers Squibb waiving rights to receive a third Investigational New Drug (IND) candidate as agreed to under a collaboration signed in 2006 between the two companies in the area of oncology.

After Exelixis opts-out of further co-development of XL139, Bristol-Myers Squibb will receive an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize, and will have sole responsibility for the further development, manufacture, and commercialization of the compound.

“We continue our strong relationship with Bristol-Myers Squibb and are excited for these collaborations to maximize the potential of these novel programs and bring benefits to patients with serious diseases,” said Michael M. Morrissey, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Exelixis. “These transactions leverage our discovery expertise with the development expertise of Bristol-Myers Squibb in inflammation and metabolic diseases, and provide important additional resources for us to continue our focus on our clinical stage development pipeline.”

TGR5 is a G-protein coupled bile acid receptor (GPCR) which is highly expressed in the gall bladder and intestine. Through TGR5, bile acids promote the secretion of glucogen-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a hormone that affects multiple metabolic parameters including increased insulin secretion from the pancreas and lowering of blood glucose. Stimulating GLP-1 secretion by activation of TGR5 has the potential to be complementary to the use of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-IV) inhibitors for the treatment of diabetes.

ROR is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor family that is expressed in multiple cell types including T-cells. ROR plays a prominent role in the development and activity of the TH17 subset of T-cells, which secrete IL-17 and are associated with a variety of inflammatory disorders. Small molecule antagonists of ROR inhibit production of these pro-inflammatory cytokines and have broad potential as novel anti-inflammatory compounds.

The TGR5 license agreement and the amendment to the 2007 cancer collaboration agreement are subject to antitrust clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act and other customary regulatory approvals.
