than Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000), and (B) less than or equal to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000); and

(c)Twenty-Five Percent (25%) of Net Sales for such calendar quarter with respect to any portion of Net Sales during such Commercialization Year greater than One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000).

As a financial contribution to the development of Mere Extensions, Sentynl shall have the right to invoice and charge Cyprium a fee, invoiced separately, but chargeable by Sentynl against portions of Royalty Payments attributed to the applicable Mere Extension, equal, in the aggregate to fifty percent (50%) of the Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions for such Mere Extension; provided, however, that such fees shall not, in any event, equal an amount in the aggregate in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of the portion of Royalty Payments attributed to the applicable Mere Extension that would otherwise be due and owing from Sentynl to Cyprium during any calendar quarter in which Sentynl seeks to collect such fees. Fees for Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions do not need to be invoiced in the calendar quarter in the period where such Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions are incurred and such fees may be invoiced and charged against Royalty Payments attributed to the applicable Mere Extension in subsequent quarters in the event there are no Royalty Payments attributable to the applicable Mere Extension or such Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the portion of Royalty Payments attributable to the applicable Mere Extension in such calendar quarter.  For the avoidance of doubt Sentynl’s invoicing and collection of such fees shall have no effect on the calculation for determining the applicable royalty tier percentage for the Royalty Payments due and owing under Subsections 2.6.4(a)-(c) or on the calculation for determining the triggering of payment of the Milestone Payments due and owing under Section 2.6.5.

2.6.5Milestone Payments.  Subject to Section 2.6.6 and Section 2.6.7, Sentynl shall pay Cyprium the following one-time payments (the “Milestone Payments”):

(a)Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), within thirty (30) days of achieving Net Sales of Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000) during any Commercialization Year;

(b)Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000), within thirty (30) days of achieving Net Sales of One Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($125,000,000) during any Commercialization Year;

(c)Thirty-Five Million Dollars ($35,000,000), within thirty (30) days of achieving Net Sales of One Hundred Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($175,000,000) during any Commercialization Year;

(d)Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000), within thirty (30) days of achieving Net Sales of Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000) during any Commercialization Year;

13


(e)Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000), within thirty (30) days of achieving Net Sales of Three Hundred Million Dollars ($300,000,000) during any Commercialization Year; and

(f)Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000), within thirty (30) days of achieving Net Sales of Four Hundred Million Dollars ($400,000,000) during any Commercialization Year.

2.6.6Approval Deadline Transfer.  In the event Cyprium fails to obtain FDA Approval as of September 30, 2023, Sentynl shall have the option (in its sole discretion) to assume and take over the Development of the Product (the “Approval Deadline Option”), which Sentynl shall have the right to exercise by providing Cyprium with written notice no later than forty-five (45) days thereafter (the “Approval Deadline Option Date”).  If Sentynl exercises the Approval Deadline Option in a timely manner (the “Approval Deadline Transfer”), then: (a) any Development following the Approval Deadline Transfer shall be at Sentynl’s sole discretion and expense; (b) Cyprium shall no longer be obligated to perform under Section 5.1; and (c) each of the NDA Acceptance Payment (solely to the extent not due and payable by Sentynl to Cyprium prior to the consummation of the Approval Deadline Transfer), the Purchase Price, the Royalty Payments and the Milestone Payments shall be reduced by Fifty Percent (50%), and shall be paid by Sentynl to Cyprium as and when due in accordance with Sections 2.6.2, 2.6.3, 2.6.4, and 2.6.5.

2.6.7Development Termination.  In the event that (a) Cyprium delivers to Sentynl written notice that it desires to terminate or cease the Development of the Product, or (b) Cyprium delivers to Sentynl written notice in accordance with Section 5.4 (in each case, a “Development Termination”), then (y) Cyprium shall no longer be obligated to perform under Section 5.1, and (z) Sentynl shall be permitted to either terminate this Agreement or effect the Closing, as specified by Sentynl in its sole discretion in a written notice delivered to Cyprium within five (5) Business Days of delivery of the notice described in the foregoing (a) or (b).  In the event that Sentynl desires to effect the Closing following a Development Termination, Sentynl’s obligations to pay each of the NDA Acceptance Payment (solely to the extent not due and payable by Sentynl to Cyprium prior to the consummation of the Development Termination), the Purchase Price, the Royalty Payments, and the Milestone Payments shall terminate immediately, and, as the only additional consideration and payments contemplated under this Agreement, Sentynl shall pay Cyprium One Percent (1%) of Net Sales during such calendar quarter with respect to any portion of Net Sales for (A) the life of the Product in the case of the Product (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Mere Extensions), and (B) the applicable Derivative Product Restrictive Period with respect to any Derivative Products (excluding Mere Extensions), on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) calendar day following the completion of each calendar quarter during a Commercialization Year.

2.7Closing.  Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article 7 (or the waiver thereof by the Party entitled to waive such condition), the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place on the fifth (5th) Business Day following the date that all of the conditions set forth in Article 7 have been satisfied or waived, or at such other time as Cyprium and Sentynl agree in writing.  The Closing shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents, signatures, and payments, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time (or at such place as the Parties may otherwise designate in writing).

2.8Net Sales Statements.

2.8.1Simultaneous with the payment of the Royalty Payments, the Milestone Payments, and any royalty payments following Closing based on a Development Termination, as applicable, Sentynl shall deliver to Cyprium a statement setting forth Sentynl’s calculation of Net Sales and Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions during such calendar quarter (the “Net Sales Statement”).  In order to allow Cyprium to reasonably verify Sentynl’s calculation of Net Sales and Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions, Sentynl shall provide Cyprium with (a) copies of any books, records, or other documentation reasonably requested by Cyprium that were used by Sentynl (and/or its Affiliates) to calculate the Net Sales and Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions, and (b) reasonable access during normal business hours to appropriate Sentynl personnel to discuss such books, records, or other documentation.  If Cyprium has any objections to the calculation of Net Sales and/or Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions as set forth the Net Sales Statement, then Cyprium may object by delivering to Sentynl a written objection notice (a “Notice of Objection”) within thirty (30) days of delivery of the Net Sales Statement, and the Parties shall proceed to resolve such disagreement in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 2.8.2.

2.8.2Unless Cyprium provides a Notice of Objection within thirty (30) days of delivery of the Net Sales Statement, the determination of Net Sales and Derivative Product Costs for Mere Extensions set forth therein shall be final and binding for all purposes hereunder.  Any Notice of Objection shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for the objections set forth therein.  If Cyprium provides such Notice of Objection to Sentynl within such thirty (30)-day period, Cyprium and Sentynl shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disputed amounts.  If Cyprium and Sentynl are unable to resolve all such disputed amounts within thirty (30) days, the matters remaining in dispute shall be submitted to a nationally recognized public accounting firm mutually agreed upon by Cyprium and Sentynl (the “Independent Accountant”). The resolution of the disputed amounts by the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding. Any overpayment or underpayment as per the audit findings, shall be adjusted accordingly in the next Royalty Payment, Milestone Payment, and/or any royalty payment following Closing based on a Development Termination (as applicable).   Cyprium and Sentynl shall each pay their own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the resolution of the disputed amounts; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by the Parties equally.

2.9Withholding; Tax Documentation.  Sentynl shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from payment of any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment or any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement under the Code or any other applicable Law.  To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Sentynl and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

3.CYPRIUM’S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS

The representations and warranties contained in this Article 3 are the sole and exclusive representations and warranties of Cyprium under this Agreement.  Except as set forth on the

15


disclosure schedules (the “Disclosure Schedules”) delivered by Cyprium to Sentynl concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Cyprium hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to Sentynl as follows:

3.1.2This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Cyprium and (assuming due authorization, execution, and delivery by Sentynl) constitutes a legal, valid, and binding obligation of Cyprium, enforceable against Cyprium in accordance with their respective terms, except: (a) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other Laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; and (b) as limited by Laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

3.1.3Cyprium has full corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and each other agreement, document, instrument, or certificate contemplated by this Agreement to be executed by Cyprium in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

3.2No Conflicts, Consents, or Approvals.  Neither the execution or delivery by Cyprium of this Agreement, nor the performance by Cyprium of its obligations hereunder, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, will (a) result in any breach of any provision of Cyprium’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws, each as amended from time to time, (b) result in any breach of, require (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) any payment, consent, or notice, or constitute a default (or give rise to any right of purchase, termination, amendment, acceleration, or cancellation) under, any material agreement or other instrument to which Cyprium is a party or by which Cyprium or any of its assets (including the Purchased Assets) are subject or bound, including the Material Contracts, (c) result in the creation of an Encumbrance, or (d) violate or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any applicable Law.  To Cyprium’s Knowledge, neither Cyprium nor Sentynl will need to make any royalty payment or other payment to any Third Party (that is not a Governmental Authority) for the right to use the Purchased Assets, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any payments owed

16


to any Third Party in the ordinary course of Commercializing the Product, including, without limitation, payments owed to distributors, manufacturers, and others.

3.3Purchased Assets

3.3.1Cyprium has good and freely transferable title to the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Encumbrances, and has the complete and unrestricted power and right to sell and transfer the Purchased Assets to Sentynl in accordance with the terms hereof.

3.3.2Neither Cyprium nor any of its Affiliates has (a) transferred, sold, assigned, licensed, or given any rights, title, or interest to the Purchased Assets to any Third Party, or (b) granted any license or right to any Third Party to Develop or Commercialize the Product, in the case of (a) or (b), that would conflict with the rights granted to Sentynl hereunder.

3.3.3Cyprium has provided Sentynl with a true and complete copy of each Material Contract. Each Material Contract is valid and binding on Cyprium and, to Cyprium’s Knowledge, the other party thereto, and is in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other Laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (b) as limited by Laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.  Neither Cyprium nor, to Cyprium’s Knowledge, any other party thereto is in material breach of, or material default under, any Material Contract, and, to Cyprium’s Knowledge, no event has occurred that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material breach or material default thereunder.

3.3.4To Cyprium’s Knowledge as of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Development Plan and the Pre-NDA Meeting Minutes and Written Responses, and except for any studies and tasks contemplated to be conducted under each of the foregoing, whether pre-NDA submission or post-FDA Approval as a post-marketing study or requirement, the Purchased Assets include the data and information reasonably required to (a) Develop the Product, and (b) manufacture the Product; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, Cyprium does not have any Knowledge of any FDA requirements or positions with respect to the submission of the Product NDA relating to the manufacture of the Product for the Primary Indication other than as set forth in the Development Plan and/or the Pre-NDA Meeting Minutes and Written Responses.

3.4Development Plan. To Cyprium’s Knowledge as of the Effective Date, so long as the studies and other tasks and steps set forth in the Development Plan are successful and the FDA does not deviate from the positions described in the Pre-NDA Meeting Minutes and Written Responses, the Development Plan is reasonably likely to generate the data that the FDA has indicated to Cyprium that it is likely to require in connection with the submission of the Product NDA.  Without limiting the foregoing, Sentynl acknowledges and agrees that the Development of pharmaceutical products is inherently unpredictable, and the Product, as of the Effective Date, remains under Development.  The FDA may request additional Development work, including issuing a complete response letter with respect to the Product NDA and/or withholding approval following the pre-approval inspection of the Product manufacturing facility, and such facts, standing alone, shall not be deemed a breach of this or any other representation or warranty.  The FDA may also agree that certain studies can be performed following FDA Approval as post-

17


marketing studies, and such changes in timing shall be deemed automatically incorporated into the Development Plan.  Sentynl acknowledges that Cyprium has the right to modify the Development Plan, subject to approval of the JSC with respect to any material modifications as set forth in Section 5.1.4(b), and such modifications shall be deemed disclosures set forth in Schedule 3.4.

3.5Litigation and Other Proceedings; Orders.  No Proceeding is or has ever been pending or, to Cyprium’s Knowledge, threatened that (a) affects or relates to the Purchased Assets, or (b) seeks to enjoin, restrain, or prohibit the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Cyprium is not operating under or subject to any injunction, writ, temporary restrain­ing order, decree, or any order by any Governmental Authority that relates to the Purchased Assets.

3.6Governmental Consents and Approvals.  The execution, delivery, and performance by Cyprium of this Agreement and the consummation by Cyprium of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not require any material filing or registration with, notification to, or authorization, permit, license, declaration, order, consent, or approval of, or other action by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority in the United States, other than the filing of the Product NDA and the FDA Approval.

3.7Intellectual Property.

3.7.1To Cyprium’s Knowledge, Cyprium solely and exclusively owns, or has the sole and exclusive valid and legally enforceable right to use, all Intellectual Property currently used by Cyprium and its Affiliates and as contemplated to be used to perform the Development activities set forth in the Development Plan, including to submit the Product NDA to the FDA, and to further Develop and Commercialize the Product for the Primary Indication (collectively, the “Cyprium IP”).  Additionally, Cyprium has the right to include in the Product NDA all data, information, and methods set forth, included or referred to therein, whether or not patentable, confidential, or otherwise subject to Laws related to Intellectual Property.

3.7.2To Cyprium’s Knowledge, no Person (including any current or former employee or consultant of Cyprium) has infringed, misappropriated, or violated, or is currently infringing, misappropriating, or violating, the Cyprium IP.

3.7.3To Cyprium’s Knowledge, performance of the Development activities contemplated by the Development Plan and Commercialization of the Product do not, and shall not, infringe or misappropriate the Intellectual Property of a Third Party.  Cyprium has not received any written claim or notice from a Third-Party alleging that the Development, manufacturing, and/or Commercialization of the Product in the United States constitutes an infringement or misappropriation of the Intellectual Property of a Third Party.  Cyprium has not obtained from patent counsel any freedom-to-operate opinion with respect to the Product for the Primary Indication.  For the avoidance of doubt, Sentynl acknowledges and agrees that the sole representations and warranties provided by Cyprium with respect to the infringement and/or misappropriation of the Intellectual Property of a Third Party is set forth in this Section 3.7.3.

3.7.4The Cyprium IP is free and clear of any Encumbrances.

Section 1320a-7 or any other Law. Cyprium has not received any written notice from a Governmental Authority alleging that Cyprium has materially violated, or inquiring into allegations related to the material violation of, any Laws applicable to the Purchased Assets.

3.8.5Cyprium has obtained all necessary and applicable approvals, clearances, authorizations, licenses and registrations required by the United States, other than the FDA Approval, for the conduct of its Development activities conducted with respect to the Product as contemplated by the Development Plan, except where the failure to hold such approvals, clearances, authorizations, licenses or registrations has not had a Material Adverse Effect and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a)Submission of the Product NDA.  Cyprium shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to submit and file, on a rolling basis and in Cyprium’s name, the Product NDA with the FDA.  Upon Cyprium’s request, Sentynl shall provide reasonable cooperation and support

23


in connection with the foregoing activities.  Sentynl acknowledges and agrees that Cyprium shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations set forth in this Section 5.1.3(a) so long as it complies, in all material respects, with the Development Plan (including any additional Development work required by the FDA).

(b)Regulatory Communications.  Cyprium shall be solely responsible for all communications with the FDA and any other Healthcare Regulatory Authority and/or Governmental Authority in connection with the Product NDA; provided, however, that Cyprium shall furnish Sentynl with a copy of any proposed material communication with the FDA at least five (5) Business Days prior to submission to the extent permitted by Law.  Sentynl shall be entitled to review and provide comments to such proposed material communication and Cyprium shall in good faith give due consideration to any such comments from Sentynl; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Cyprium shall have final decision-making authority with respect to any such communication, and Cyprium’s obligation to consult with Sentynl shall be subject to Cyprium’s good faith determination that the time required to so consult would not materially impair the availability of rights or remedies, or increase exposure, in connection with such communication.  Cyprium shall keep the JSC reasonably informed regarding any non-routine communications with the FDA and/or any other Healthcare Regulatory Authority or Governmental Authority in connection with the Product NDA, including any additional Development work required by the FDA which such work shall be deemed to be incorporated into the Development Plan upon delivery of the foregoing notice.

5.1.4Joint Steering Committee.

(a)Cyprium and Sentynl will establish a joint steering committee (the “JSC”), comprised of two (2) representatives from each of Cyprium and Sentynl, which shall oversee the performance of the Development Plan and the development of the newborn screening assay for the Primary Indication. Cyprium’s initial representatives on the JSC shall be Lung S. Yam, M.D., Ph.D. and Robert Niecestro, Ph.D.; and Sentynl’s initial representatives on the JSC shall be Eileen Banaga, MS, RAC and Darren Pincus.  Each of Cyprium and Sentynl may change one (1) or more representatives serving on the JSC at any time upon prior written notice to the other Party.

(b)Cyprium shall provide the JSC with quarterly written reports on the progress of the Development of the Product, and Sentynl shall provide the JSC with quarterly written reports on the progress of the development of the newborn screening assay for the Primary Indication.  All material modifications to the Development Plan, other than those required by the FDA, must be approved by the JSC; provided, however, that such JSC approval shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed, or withheld.  In the event that Cyprium desires to materially modify the Development Plan (other than as required by the FDA), Cyprium shall promptly provide the JSC with written notice of such proposed modification, specifying the rationale for such proposed modification (the “Modification Request”).  The JSC shall respond to any Modification Request within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of the Modification Request.  The failure by the JSC to respond to a Modification Request in a timely manner shall be deemed approval of such Modification Request.  Prior to a Development Termination and any other

24


termination of this Agreement, any approved Modification Request shall be at the sole cost and expense of Cyprium.

(c)Decisions of the JSC shall be made by unanimous consensus, with one vote for Cyprium and one vote for Sentynl.  The members of the JSC shall at all times use good faith to reach unanimous consensus on matters referred to the JSC under this Agreement.  In the event that the JSC is unable to reach consensus with respect to a particular matter, then either Party may, by written notice to the other, refer the matter to the respective business head of each Party or their respective designee of such business head for resolution of such matter in good faith within fifteen (15) Business Days.  In the event that the business head or their designees as may be applicable are unable to reach agreement with respect to such matter within such fifteen (15) Business Days, then Cyprium shall have the right to make the final decision.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Cyprium determines in its reasonable judgment that failing to act in accordance with any Modification Request pending the resolution of any disagreement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.1.4(c) is reasonably likely to adversely and materially jeopardize the success of the Development Plan or any material portion of the Development Plan, Cyprium shall be permitted to act immediately in accordance with such Modification Request, and such actions shall not be deemed a breach of this Section 5.1.4 or Section 5.1.1(a)(i).

(d)The JSC will meet at least quarterly in person or by audio or video teleconference.  Each of Cyprium and Sentynl will be responsible for all of the expenses of its representatives participating in the JSC meetings.  A representative from each of Cyprium and Sentynl will be necessary for a quorum at any such meeting.

For the avoidance of doubt, following the Effective Date and until the Closing, each Party will promptly notify the other Party, in writing, of:

5.5.1the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event, which occurrence or failure would be reasonably likely to cause any representation and warranty of a Party contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate at any time between the date hereof and the Closing;

27


Between the date hereof and the Closing, Cyprium will notify Sentynl of any material change in a relationship with a material supplier, distributor or manufacturer related to the Purchased Assets. The giving of any notice under this Section 5.5 shall in no way change or modify the representations and warranties of the Parties, or the conditions to the obligations of the Parties, contained herein, or otherwise affect the remedies available to the Parties hereunder.

5.6Tax Matters.  If the Closing occurs, the Parties agree that the consummation of the Acquisition is intended by each of the Parties to be characterized for U.S. federal and all applicable U.S. state income tax purposes as Cyprium’s sale, transfer and assignment to Sentynl, and Sentynl’s acquisition and purchase of, all of Cyprium’s right, title, and interest in and to the Purchased Assets (i.e., as a “purchase and sale” of property, and not as a “license” by Cyprium (each such term as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) with respect to such Purchased Assets).  Consistent with the foregoing, it is further agreed that the Parties further intend that the payments of the Upfront Payment, the NDA Acceptance Payment, the Purchase Price, and the Royalty Payments from Sentynl to Cyprium pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent allocable to the Acquisition, are to be characterized for U.S. federal and all applicable U.S. state income tax purposes as part of the purchase price paid or payable by Sentynl to Cyprium in respect of such purchase and sale of property.  The Parties covenant and agree to prepare and file their respective Tax returns in a manner consistent in all respects with the foregoing intended income Tax characterization of the transactions contemplated hereby, except as otherwise required by applicable Law following any challenge thereto by an applicable Governmental Authority.

6.1.3Parallel Imports.  To the fullest extent allowable under applicable Law, Cyprium hereby covenants that it shall not knowingly, directly or indirectly, (a) Commercialize the Product to, or solicit orders from, any existing or prospective customer inside or outside the OUS Cyprium Jurisdictions for subsequent sale outside the OUS Cyprium Jurisdictions; (b) deliver or tender (or cause to be delivered or tendered) the Product outside the OUS Cyprium Jurisdictions for use outside the OUS Cyprium Jurisdictions; or (c) Commercialize the Product to, or solicit Product sales from, a customer in the OUS Jurisdictions if Cyprium knows or has a reasonable basis to conclude that such customer intends to resell the Product outside the OUS Cyprium Jurisdictions.  To the fullest extent allowable under applicable Law, Cyprium shall require in its contracts with its licensees and contractors that such licensees and contractors shall comply with the provisions of this Section 6.1.3, and, in the event Cyprium becomes aware, or has

29


a reasonable basis to conclude, that any of its licensees and/or contractors is in breach of this Section 6.1.3, Cyprium shall take all reasonable actions to prevent the continuance thereof, and to remedy such breach, including enforcing its rights under, or terminating, the applicable agreement with such licensee or contractor.

6.1.4Maintenance of the Product NDA.  Following Closing, Sentynl shall maintain the Product NDA.  In the event that Sentynl desires to abandon the Product NDA, it shall provide Cyprium prior written notice; and Sentynl shall, upon Cyprium’s request, assign, transfer, and convey to Cyprium, at no cost, the Product NDA.

6.2Non-Competition.

6.2.1To the greatest extent permissible under applicable Law, each Party covenants and agrees that, following the Closing and until seven (7) years following the first commercial sale of the Product in the United States (the “Restrictive Period”), neither it nor its Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, (a) engage in, (b) have any direct or indirect ownership interest in any Person that engages in, (c) permit their names to be used in connection with, or (d) enter into any joint venture, distribution, profit sharing, or other agreement or arrangement with respect to, in any case (a) through (d), the development, manufacturing and/or Commercialization of any product (other than AAV-ATP7A with respect to Cyprium and its Affiliates and their respective successors and assigns), anywhere in the Territory, that (y) is approved by the FDA or any applicable Governmental Authority for the Primary Indication, and/or (z) is, or can be, used to treat the same indication(s) as the Product; provided, however, that Cyprium acknowledges and agrees that Sentynl and its Affiliates shall not be limited in any way from manufacturing, developing and/or commercializing Derivative Products, dietary supplements, vitamins, and/or other nutraceuticals or bioceuticals for the Primary Indication.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.2.1, Cyprium acknowledges and agrees that Sentynl and its Affiliates (i) may enter into pharmaceutical development, manufacturing, clinical development and other activities related to the development of any other non-copper based pharmaceuticals (or other non-copper based product) for the Primary Indication or acquire (including by merger or consolidation) a Person or substantially all of the assets of a Person developing non-copper based pharmaceuticals (or other non-copper based product) for the Primary Indication and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, may form a joint venture for marketing, distribution, profit sharing, or other agreement or arrangement for the Product in the Territory.

6.2.2Following the Closing and through the Restrictive Period, Sentynl shall not, at any time, enter into an agreement pursuant to which Sentynl agrees to supply the Product to a Third Party for use in connection with the Development of any gene therapy product for the Primary Indication.

6.3Further Action.  From time to time, as and when reasonably requested by the other Party, each Party will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and will take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other actions, as the requesting Party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in any such case, at the requesting Party’s sole cost and expense, including (a) Cyprium shall take any action reasonably necessary or desirable to transfer to, and

30


vest in, Sentynl, its successors and assigns all of Cyprium’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Purchased Assets and (b) Sentynl shall take any action necessary or desirable to (i) confirm that it does not have, and has never had, any right, title, or interest in or to the PRV, and (ii) provide Cyprium with reasonable access to any of the Purchased Assets, including by means of a royalty-free license, to the extent useful solely in connection with the Gene Therapy Program.

6.4Insurance.  From and after the Closing, Cyprium or its Affiliate, as applicable, shall maintain the coverage under the Insurance Policies or maintain comparable insurance policies, including the purchase of a 4-year prepaid tail policy for the Insurance Policies or substantially similar coverage which shall name Sentynl and its Affiliates as an additional insured.

6.5Expanded Access Program.  Without limiting the generality of Sections 2.1 and 2.2, in the event that the Closing takes place prior to the granting of the FDA Approval, Sentynl shall, from and after the Closing and until the granting of the FDA Approval, continue to maintain and operate the Expanded Access Program, substantially in the same manner as operated by Cyprium immediately prior to the Closing and in compliance with all applicable Laws.  During the sixty (60) days following a Closing that takes place prior to the granting of the FDA Approval, Cyprium shall, upon Sentynl’s request and at Sentynl’s cost, reasonably cooperate and provide reasonable assistance in connection with the maintenance and operation of the Expanded Access Program.

6.6Gene Therapy Program.  Sentynl shall consider in good faith, but not be bound to agree to, any reasonable request by Cyprium to support Cyprium’s Gene Therapy Program, including by providing clinical and commercial supplies of the Product upon commercially reasonable terms.

8.3Cooperation.  Upon Cyprium’s request and at Cyprium’s reasonable expense, Sentynl shall cooperate and provide assistance as Cyprium may reasonably deem necessary or desirable, including joining any lawsuit or other proceeding, (a) to confirm that Sentynl does not have, and has never had, any right, title, or interest in or to the PRV, and/or (b) to obtain the PRV, including in the event of an initial FDA denial relative to the Product NDA’s qualification for the PRV.

35


Indemnified Party”) from and against all Damages incurred by the Sentynl Indemnified Parties to the extent based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of:

9.1.1any breach of any of Cyprium’s representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement;

9.2.2any breach of any of Sentynl’s covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement; or

9.2.3the Assumed Liabilities.

9.3Indemnification Procedures.

9.3.1The party making a claim under this Article 9 is referred to as the “Indemnified Party” and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article 9 is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party.”  If any Indemnified Party receives written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding or the assertion of any claim by a Third Party or the imposition of any penalty or assessment for which a claim for indemnification may be made under this Article 9 (a “Third Party Claim”) or otherwise discovers the liability, obligation, or facts giving rise to such claim for indemnity, and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity pursuant to this Article 9, such Indemnified Party shall promptly provide the Indemnifying Party with written notice of such Third Party Claim, stating the nature, basis, and the amount thereof, to the extent known, along with copies of the relevant documents evidencing such Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification sought.  Failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice will not prohibit such Indemnified Party from seeking indemnification hereunder, except if and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby.  The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of a Third Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes, to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, if, within thirty (30) days from receipt of any such notice of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party provides written notice to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party intends to undertake such defense; provided, however, that if the

36


Third Party Claim (a) involves a Governmental Authority, potential criminal liability, or is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on any other matter beyond the scope or limits of the indemnification obligation of the Indemnifying Party, or (b) seeks specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim by providing written notice to the Indemnifying Party.  If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in (but not control) the defense thereof, provided that the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party.  If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 9.3.2, pay, compromise, and/or defend such Third Party Claim, and seek indemnification for any and all reasonable Damages based upon, arising from, or relating to such Third Party Claim.  Cyprium and Sentynl shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

9.3.2Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except in the event that such settlement (a) would not lead to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party, and (b) provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim.  If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 9.3.1, it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

9.3.3Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Damage that does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim.  The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby.  Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall state the nature, basis, and the amount of the Direct Claim, to the extent known, along with copies of the relevant documents evidencing such Direct Claim and the basis for indemnification sought.  The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request.

37


9.4Limitations on Indemnification.

9.4.1Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay for any Damages under Section 9.1 until the amount of all such Damages exceeds, in the aggregate, $50,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall only pay or be liable for the Damages in excess of the Deductible.  For purposes of this Section 9.4.1, any inaccuracy in or breach of any representations, warranties, covenants, and/or obligations shall be determined without regard to any materiality, Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation, warranty, covenant, and/or obligation.

9.4.2Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the maximum aggregate liability of Cyprium for indemnification under Section 9.1.1 shall not exceed [***] (the “Cap”); provided, however, the maximum aggregate liability of [***] shall not exceed [***].

9.4.3Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the Sentynl Indemnified Parties shall have no right to indemnification under this Article 9 with respect to any Development Claim and/or Ancillary Claim unless Cyprium has engaged in gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct, or intentional misrepresentation in connection with such Development Claim and/or Ancillary Claim.  For the avoidance of doubt, Cyprium’s election to terminate or cease the Development of the Product, by itself, is not a valid basis for a Development Claim.

9.4.4The amount of any Damages that any Indemnified Party is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article 9 shall be reduced by any related recoveries which such Indemnified Party actually receives under applicable insurance policies or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any such Damages.  If an Indemnified Party actually receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any Damages, subsequent to an indemnification payment being made by the Indemnifying Party hereunder, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to such indemnification payment, up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of any previously unpaid or unreimbursed expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in collecting such amount and the aggregate increase in insurance premiums that are directly and proximately caused by such Damages.

9.4.5Each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing,  its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims and Damages relating to or arising from this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (other than claims of, or causes of action arising from, fraud) shall be governed by, and subject to, the terms and provisions set forth in this Article 9.

9.4.6The Indemnified Parties shall have no right to recover any amounts pursuant to this Article 9, unless on or before the applicable General Survival Date (as defined below), the Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing pursuant to Section 9.3.1.  Additionally, and for the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnified Parties shall have no right to recover any amounts pursuant to this Article 9 prior to the Closing or in the event that either Party terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.5.1.

38


9.5Survival of Representations, Warranties, and Covenants.  Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, claims for indemnification brought under Article 9 will survive (the “General Survival Date”) until, as follows:  (a) with respect to claims for indemnification under Sections 9.1.1 and 9.2.1, (i) except with respect to the Fundamental Representations, fifteen (15) months following the Closing, and (ii) in the case of the Fundamental Representations, the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations; and (b) with respect to claims for indemnification under Sections 9.1.2 and 9.2.2, the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.  Claims for indemnification under Sections 9.1.3, 9.1.4, and 9.2.3 shall survive indefinitely.  It is the express intent of the Parties that if an applicable survival period as contemplated by this Section 9.5 is shorter than the statute of limitations that would otherwise apply, then, by contract, the applicable statute of limitations shall be reduced to the survival period contemplated hereby.  The Parties further acknowledge that the time periods set forth in this Section 9.5 for the assertion of claims under this Agreement are the result of arms’ length negotiation among the Parties and that they intend for the time periods to be enforced as agreed by the Parties.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.5 to the contrary, any claim based on fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

10.AFFILIATE FINANCIAL GUARANTY

10.1Affiliate Financial Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a continuing obligation, the due and punctual payment by Sentynl of the Upfront Payment, the NDA Acceptance Payment and the Purchase Price, to the extent such payments are actually earned by Cyprium in accordance with this Agreement.  If Sentynl fails to pay such amount when due, then Affiliate Financial Guarantor shall pay such amount to Cyprium within ten (10) Business Days of receiving written demand from Cyprium.  This guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, and Affiliate Financial Guarantor shall be liable under this guaranty as if it were a primary obligor and not merely as a surety.  The guaranty hereunder shall be a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier of (i) the payment of the Upfront Payment, the NDA Acceptance Payment and the Purchase Price, (ii) the termination of this Agreement with no disputed obligations with respect to the payment of the Upfront Payment, the NDA Acceptance Payment and the Purchase Price or (iii) the Closing with satisfaction of any of Sentynl’s payment obligations with respect to the Upfront Payment, the NDA Acceptance Payment and the Purchase Price to the extent relevant for such Closing.  This guaranty is in addition to, and independent of, any lien, guarantee, or other security or right or remedy now or at any time hereafter held by or available to Cyprium.  Affiliate Financial Guarantor hereby waives any requirement of promptness, diligence, or notice with respect to the foregoing guaranty and any requirement that Cyprium exhaust any right or take any action against Sentynl in respect of the payment of the Upfront Payment, the NDA Acceptance Payment and/or the Purchase Price.

10.2Sentynl hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to Cyprium that, as of the Effective Date, Sentynl’s direct and indirect parent companies do not intend, and Sentynl is not aware of any intention, to transfer, assign, or convey to any other party any of its ownership interests in Sentynl.

39

12.5Public Announcements.  Except as required by Laws or by the requirements of any stock exchange on which the securities of a Party or any of its Affiliates are listed, neither Party

41


will make, or cause to be made, any press release or public announcement related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or otherwise communicate with any news media with respect to the foregoing, without prior written consent of the other Party.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties intend to issue a press release announcing the entry into this Agreement and upon the Closing, with the mutual consent of the Parties for each press release, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

12.6Severability.  Each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Laws, but if any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid under applicable Laws, including by reason of such covenant or agreement extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographical area, or by reason of it being too extensive in any other respect, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such unenforceability or invalidity, and the Parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so that the unenforceable or invalid provision is replaced by such valid and enforceable provision which the Parties consider, in good faith, to match as closely as possible the invalid or unenforceable provision and to achieve the same or a similar economic effect and to give effect to the Parties’ original intent.  The remaining provisions of this Agreement will continue to be binding and in full force and effect.

12.7Assignment.  Neither Party may assign, in whole or in part, or delegate all or any part of its rights, interests, or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that each Party shall be permitted to assign this Agreement to any of its Affiliates prior to the Closing and to any Affiliate or any Third Party following the Closing.  Any assignment or delegation made without such consent will be void.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

12.8Confidentiality Agreement.  The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference and will continue in full force and effect until expiration or termination in accordance with the terms therein; provided, however, the confidentiality obligations and non-use restrictions set forth therein shall, notwithstanding the provisions set forth therein, survive termination or expiration and be binding upon the Receiving Party for a period of five (5) years following the termination of this Agreement or through the Restrictive Period in the event of the Closing (except with respect to portions of Confidential Information that constitute trade secrets, which will be subject to the obligations of confidentiality and non-use hereunder for as long as they are protected under applicable Law as trade secrets).  In the event that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7.5, Sentynl shall promptly return to Cyprium all of Cyprium’s Confidential Information.

42


12.9Third-Party Beneficiaries.  With the exception of the provisions of Article 9 which are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, the Indemnified Parties, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to entitle any Person, other than the Parties, their respective transferees and assigns permitted hereby, to any claim, cause of action, remedy or right of any kind.

12.10Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.  This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Law of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflict of laws rules of such state.  Each Party and any Person asserting any rights or defenses under this Agreement hereby irrevocably consents and agrees that it shall bring any action, suit, or proceeding with respect to any matter arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the subject matter herein in the courts of the State of Delaware.  Each Party and any Person asserting any rights or defenses under this Agreement hereby irrevocably accepts and submits, for itself and in respect of its properties, to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware with respect to any such action, suit, or proceeding.  Each Party and any Person asserting any rights or defenses under this Agreement hereby irrevocably consents to service of process in any such action, suit, or proceeding in any such court by the mailing of a copy of such process by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Person at the address specified in Section 12.4 for notices to such Person.  Additionally, service of process may also be made in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.  Each Party and any Person asserting any rights or defenses under this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection or defense that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such action, suit, or proceeding in the courts of the State of Delaware and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim that any such action, suit, or proceeding brought in such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

12.11Specific Performance.  Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be irreparably damaged if the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their terms and that any breach of this Agreement and the non-consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by either Party could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone.  Accordingly, in addition to any remedy to which such other Party may be entitled under Article 9, provisional measures and injunctive relief necessary to protect the ability of each Party to seek specific performance from the other Party from the tribunal referred to in Section 12.10 can be sought from any court of competent jurisdiction.  Each Party (a) agrees that it shall not oppose the granting of any such relief, and (b) hereby irrevocably waives any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such relief (it is understood that clause (a) of this sentence is not intended to, and shall not, preclude any Party from litigating on the merits the substantive claim to which such remedy relates).

12.12Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT: (A) NO

12.13Waiver.  Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition, and no waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty, covenant, or agreement hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any such prior or subsequent occurrence.  No failure or delay of any Party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no waiver by any Party of any term or condition of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term or condition of this Agreement on any future occasion.

12.14Counterparts; Facsimile Signature.  This Agreement may be executed in one (1) or more counterparts, by original or facsimile (or other such electronically transmitted) signature, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which will constitute one and the same instrument.

44


such period shall be excluded; and (m) the Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event that an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

Exhibit A-1

Expanded Access Program

The Expanded Access Program is a means to provide the Product on a compassionate use basis.  As of the Effective Date, physicians are treating twelve (12) patients under Cyprium’s protocol CYP-001.  Upon physician request, Cyprium will continue to accept qualified additional patients into the Expanded Access Program following the Effective Date.  CYP-001 provides that each enrolled patient will be dosed for three (3) years following enrollment.  Although data arising from the Expanded Access Program will be included in the NDA, the Expanded Access Program is not a pivotal study which is being performed to satisfy requirements for FDA Approval.

In March 2019, the FDA contacted Cyprium by telephone and requested that Cyprium consolidate the compassionate use efforts by physicians nationally to make the Product available to pediatric patients.  Prior to that time, physicians administering the Product on a compassionate use basis had been authorized to operate under IND No. 34,166 through investigator-initiated INDs and Letters of Authorization from Cyprium.  Cyprium agreed to the FDA’s request and modified CYP-001 in order to create the Expanded Access Program.  The Expanded Access Program is ongoing.

In November 2019, to enable NICHD to terminate its NIH Protocol 09-CH-0059, NICHD and Cyprium agreed that Cyprium would accept into its Expanded Access Program all patients then-enrolled in such NICHD protocol.  Of the twelve (12) patients currently enrolled in the Expanded Access Program, one (1) is a former NICHD patient.

Here is a list of the documentation supporting the Expanded Access Program and contained in the data room, “Project Copper,” hosted by Intralinks on behalf of Cyprium:

(a)

Copper Histidinate Treatment for Menkes Disease, Protocol Number CYP-001, NCT Identified Number NCT04074512.

(b)
