Business Plan

I. Executive summary

Our mission is to develop therapeutics targeting the tumor microenvironment to complement conventional and targeted therapies designed against the cancer cells. The focus on the non-tumor supportive cells of solid tumors has emerged from the Bhowmick laboratory, where multiple viable therapeutic targets have been identified in the last 15 years. One such target for the depletion of mitochondrial DNA is of therapeutic interest for Enviro Therapeutics. Strong preclinical data demonstrate mitochondrial DNA secretion illicit an inflammatory response that contributes to therapeutic resistance to standard of care chemotherapy for prostate cancer patient with advanced disease.

ENV205, is a mitochondrial DNA depletion compound that is being developed in partnership with Xencor Co. ENV205 is found to serve as a synergistic taxane sensitizer. The further capacity to limit co-morbidities of cardiac toxicity and chemo-brain associated with taxane-based therapy will be tested. The intellectual property owned by Cedars-Sinai Medical Center will be licensed by Enviro Therapeutics.

ENV205 will be aggressively pursued in pre-clinical and clinical trials. Future therapeutic targets will be developed based on the overriding mission to complement traditional cancer-targeted drugs with those that address the tumor microenvironment. Enviro Therapeutics will strive to co-develop companion biomarkers with all drugs in its portfolio.

II. Leadership team

Enviro Therapeutics Inc. was incorporated on November 15, 2019 in the state of California. Neil Bhowmick is the CEO and Secretary. John Yu is the Treasurer and Director.

III. Market analysis

The initial market for ENV205 will be for prostate and breast cancer patients. Breast cancer therapeutics market size was valued over $16 million in 2018 and the specific chemotherapy drug sector is expected to grow 6.6% (2019-2025). Prostate cancer afflict an estimated 174,650 men in the United States per year. The market share of this population that require chemotherapy is approximately $56.5 million. The market of prostate and breast cancer is highest in the Americas. The diseases are significant in the Europe and rapidly growing in east Asia.

Taxane based therapy, inclusive of docetaxel, paclitaxel, and cabazataxel, is standard of care for majority of solid tumors (inclusive of breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, advanced stomach cancer, head and neck cancer and metastatic prostate cancer). Mortality for these diseases is primarily due to the development of resistance to the taxane. ENV205 is designed to extend the efficacy at lower doses of taxane-based therapy. The application in other traditional chemotherapies (e.g. anthacyclins, 5-flurouracil) have yet to be explored. Neurologic and cardiac comorbidities from this class of drugs can be dose limiting for patients. The capacity for ENV205 to limit these comorbidities provide an added advantage over their primary objective.

IV. Value Proposition

-	No sensitizers for chemotherapy for prostate and breast cancer patients exist
-	There are no companies that have the goal of making cancer therapeutics that target the non-vascular tumor microenvironment.
-	Partnership with Xencor Co. provide experience in therapeutic development.

V. Milestones and Timeline

-	Produce ENV205 for preclinical testing.
-	Demonstrate ENV205 efficacy in synergizing with docetaxel in breast cancer mouse models.
-	Measure changes in cognitive impairment and cardiac toxicity with ENV205.
-	Study biomarkers for ENV205
-	Develop Phase 1 clinical trial for ENV205 combination with paclitaxel for metastatic breast and prostate cancer.

Licensee acknowledges that it is important to CSMC, and a requirement of the United States Government under Title 35, Section 203 of the United States Code, that Licensee pursue the development, commercialization and marketing of Products and otherwise exercise commercially reasonable efforts to maximize the value of this Agreement to CSMC. Without limiting the foregoing, Licensee shall maintain a bona fide, funded, ongoing and active research, development, manufacturing, regulatory, marketing or sales program (all as commercially reasonable) to make Products commercially available to the public as soon as commercially practicable in the Territory. Should CSMC determine that Licensee fails to use commercially reasonable efforts to maximize the Patent Rights in any national political jurisdiction in the Territory at any time following the one (1) year anniversary of the Effective Date of this Agreement, CSMC shall provide Licensee with notice of such determination and give Licensee a period of ninety (90) days to provide written evidence satisfactory to CSMC that Licensee or its Permitted Sublicensee(s) has sales of Products in such jurisdiction in question or an effective, ongoing and active research, development, manufacturing, marketing or sales program, as appropriate, directed toward obtaining regulatory approval, and/or production and/or sales of Products in such jurisdiction in accordance with Licensee’s business, legal, medical and scientific judgment and Licensee’s normal practices and procedures for products having similar technical and commercial potential. Should Licensee fail to provide such written evidence satisfactory to CSMC within such ninety (90) day period, CSMC shall have the right, at CSMC’s sole and absolute discretion, to either: (i) terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable national political jurisdiction within the Territory or (ii) require Licensee to negotiate in good faith a sublicense with a Permitted Sublicensee(s) in the applicable national jurisdiction to maximize the Patent Rights in such jurisdiction.

2.6 Milestones. As part of Licensee’s diligent commercialization efforts under Section 2.5, CSMC and Licensee have agreed on the Milestones set forth on Schedule C, with each such Milestone being deemed a separate and independent condition. Within sixty (60) days after each anniversary of the Effective Date, Licensee shall prepare and deliver to CSMC an annual written report (to be certified by an executive officer of Licensee) indicating its compliance with the Milestones. If Licensee believes that it is or will be unable to achieve such Milestones despite its diligent efforts, Licensee may request amendments or reasonable extensions to Schedule C in writing for CSMC’s consideration. Licensee agrees to provide any additional information reasonably required by CSMC to evaluate Licensee’s performance under this Agreement. If Licensee fails to meet any annual Milestone designated in Schedule C hereto, and has not obtained an extension or amendment to such Milestone(s), CSMC may, at its option and as its sole remedy for Licensee’s breach of this Section 2.6, upon written notice to Licensee, convert the exclusive license granted under Section 2.1 hereof to a non-exclusive license or to a co-exclusive license, or terminate the license.

2.7 Preference for United States Industry. To the extent that the Patent Rights and Technical Information have been developed using funding from the United States Government, Licensee agrees that any Products made, used or sold in the United States shall be manufactured substantially in the United States.

3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

3.1 Rights to Technology. Except for the rights, if any, of the Funding Agencies or the United States Government, CSMC represents and warrants to Licensee that, to the best of its actual, current knowledge (without investigation outside of CSMC as to such representations and warranties) (a) it has the right to grant the licenses in this Agreement, (b) it has not granted licenses to the Patent Rights or Technical Information to any other party that would restrict the rights granted hereunder except as stated herein and (c) there are no claims, judgments or settlements to be paid by CSMC with respect the Patent Rights or Technical Information or pending claims or litigation relating to the Patent Rights or Technical Information. Except for any potential or actual rights of Funding Agencies or the United States Government, CSMC is not aware that any additional rights or licenses are necessary for Licensee to exercise its licensed rights granted by CSMC under this Agreement.

3.2 Limited Warranty; Certain Damages.

(a) Limited Warranty. CSMC makes no representation or warranty other than those expressly specified in this Agreement. Licensee accepts the Patent Rights and the Technical Information on an “AS-IS” basis. CSMC MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES CONCERNING PATENT RIGHTS OR TECHNICAL INFORMATION COVERED BY THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AS TO PATENT RIGHTS, TECHNICAL INFORMATION OR ANY PRODUCT. CSMC MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION AS TO THE VALIDITY OR SCOPE OF PATENT RIGHTS, OR THAT ANY PRODUCT WILL BE FREE FROM AN INFRINGEMENT ON PATENTS OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES, OR THAT NO THIRD PARTIES ARE IN ANY WAY INFRINGING PATENT RIGHTS COVERED BY THIS AGREEMENT. LICENSEE HEREBY AGREES THAT LICENSEE WILL NOT GIVE, AND SHALL NOT PERMIT ANY AFFILIATES OR SUBLICENSEES OR AFFILIATES THEREOF TO GIVE, ANY SUCH WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION TO THIRD PARTIES ON BEHALF OF CSMC.

(b) Certain Damages. EXCEPT FOR THE BREACH OF THE CONFIDENTIALITY PROVISIONS IN SECTION 10 OR IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE OBLIGATION TO INDEMNIFY SET FORTH IN SECTION 8, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR EXPECTED SAVINGS OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSSES, OR FOR INJURY TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ITS SUBJECT MATTER, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH PARTY KNOWS OR SHOULD KNOW OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE FOREGOING EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY TO ALL CLAIMS AND ACTIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER GROUNDS.

3.3 Rights Retained by Funding Agencies. Licensee acknowledges that to the extent that the Patent Rights and Technical Information have been developed in part under one or more funding agreements (“Funding Agreements”) with one or more Funding Agencies, such Funding Agencies have certain statutory, non-exclusive rights relative thereto for use for government purposes as well as regulatory or statutory “march-in rights” (collectively, “Statutory Rights”). Licensee also acknowledges that to the extent that the Improvements may be developed in part under one or more Funding Agreements with one or more Funding Agencies, such Funding Agencies may have certain Statutory Rights relative thereto. This Agreement is explicitly made subject to such Statutory Rights and, to the extent of any conflict between any such Statutory Rights and this Agreement, such Statutory Rights shall prevail.

4. CONSIDERATION

In consideration of the execution and delivery by CSMC of this Agreement, Licensee agrees as follows:

4.1 License Fee.

(a) Upfront Fee. Licensee shall pay to CSMC a non-refundable license fee in two (2) installments in accordance with the following: (i) an amount equal to $5,000 shall be payable within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date, and (ii) an amount equal to $25,000 shall be payable within thirty (30) days of the date on which Licensee has raised at least $250,000 in capital company-wide for any program or purpose; provided, that if Licensee has paid CSMC the second installment of the license fee described in clause (ii) of this Section 4.1(a), then Licensee shall not be required to pay CSMC the second installment of the license fee described in the license agreement between Licensee and CSMC with respect to CSMC’s technology titled “Sensitization of solid tumors to hormonal, chemo-, or radiation therapy through endoglin antagonism” (bho000961) (the “Endoglin Antagonism License”). For the avoidance of doubt, upon raising at least $250,000 in capital company-wide for any program or purpose, Licensee shall only be required to pay CSMC one (1) $25,000 license fee installment in total, and such payment shall satisfy the requirements to make a second license fee installment payment which are set forth in both this Agreement and the Endoglin Antagonism License.

(b) Patent Cost Reimbursement. Within thirty (30) days of the execution of this Agreement, Licensee shall reimburse CSMC for the costs, including attorneys’ fees and filing fees, actually incurred to date by CSMC in the prosecution of the Patent Rights (which have not already been reimbursed by Licensee under the Option Agreement), which are [$ ] as of    , 202_.

4.2 Equity Grant. Licensee shall issue to CSMC that number of shares of Licensee’s common stock as is equal, in the aggregate, to 0.5% of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of Licensee on a Fully Diluted Basis (as defined hereafter), as of the Effective Date, subject to execution of a Stock Issuance Agreement of the form attached hereto as Schedule C. Failure of Licensee to issue such shares shall render this Agreement null and void (ab initio). Such shares issued hereunder shall be of the same class and series as founders’ shares. A true and complete copy of Licensee’s capitalization table as of the Effective Date of the Agreement is set forth in Schedule E hereto. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Fully Diluted Basis” shall include all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, preferred stock and other capital stock of the Licensee (calculated on an as-converted to common stock basis) plus any then issued and outstanding options and warrants to purchase common stock (calculated on an as-exercised, as converted to common stock basis) plus any unissued but reserved for shares of common stock for future issuance as options or stock grants under the Licensee’s stock plan.

(a) Anti-Dilution Protection. Licensee will issue to CSMC, without further consideration, any additional shares of stock of the class issued pursuant to Section 4.2 necessary to ensure that the number of shares issued CSMC pursuant to Section 4.2 does not represent less than 0.5% of the shares issued and outstanding on a Fully-Diluted Basis at any time until the earlier of (i) Licensee’s initial public offering or (ii) Licensee having raised at least $20,000,000 in capital.

(b) Future Offerings. In any private offering of Licensee’s equity securities in exchange for cash (or in satisfaction of debt issued for cash), CSMC may purchase for cash that number of the securities issued in such offering as is necessary for CSMC to maintain its pro rata ownership interest in the Licensee on a Fully-Diluted Basis. This right is in addition to CSMC’s rights under Section 4.2(a). In any offering subject to this Section 4.2(b), (i) CSMC’s purchase right shall be on the same terms as the other investors in the financing in question, except that CSMC shall not have any board representation or board meeting attendance rights, (ii) Licensee will give CSMC notice of the terms of the offering, including the names of the investors and the amounts to be invested by each, and CSMC may elect to exercise its right of purchase, in whole or in part, by notice given to Licensee within thirty (30) days after receipt of Licensee’s notice, and (iii) if CSMC elects not to purchase, or fails to give an election notice within such period, CSMC’s purchase right will not apply to the offering if (and only if and to the extent) it is consummated within ninety (90) days on the same or less favorable (to the investor) terms as stated in Licensee’s notice to CSMC. CSMC’s rights under this Section 4.2(b) will not apply to the issuance of stock to employees and other service providers pursuant to a plan approved by Licensee’s board of directors, to shares issued in connection with an acquisition, joint venture or other strategic transaction, or to shares issued as additional consideration in lending or leasing transactions. The rights granted in this Section 4.2(b) will terminate (in addition to any earlier termination pursuant to their terms) immediately before Licensee’s initial public offering or a merger, sale or consolidation with a company that is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 12(g) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

4.3 Royalties and Non-Royalty Revenue.

(a) Running Royalties for Products. Licensee agrees to pay and shall pay to CSMC the following non-refundable running royalties (each, a “Royalty”) in the amounts set forth below:

(i) a running royalty of four percent (4%) on Net Sales of Patent Products made, used, sold or otherwise distributed by Licensee or any Permitted Sublicensee hereunder (“Patent Product Royalty Rate”) and

(ii) a running royalty of one-half percent (0.5%) on Net Sales of Other Products made, used, sold or otherwise distributed by Licensee or any Permitted Sublicensee hereunder (“Other Product Royalty Rate”).

(b) Minimum Royalties. Beginning on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date, Licensee shall pay CSMC a minimum royalty of $10,000 per year (“Minimum Royalty”). Each annual payment of the Minimum Royalty shall be credited against Royalties payable such that no Royalties shall be payable unless the Royalties for such annual period exceed $10,000; provided, that excess amounts paid in respect of the Minimum Royalty may not be carried over to the following calendar year.

(c) Permitted Deductions. If Licensee is required to make any payment to a third party to obtain a license for the manufacture, use, sale or import of a Product or otherwise exploit the Patent Rights, Licensee shall be entitled to deduct up to fifty percent (50%) of such third party payments made in a particular calendar year against Royalties payable to CSMC for that year; provided, however, that in no event shall the Royalties payable to CSMC hereunder for any one-year period be reduced by operation of this section by more than fifty percent (50%); and provided, further, that such third party payments shall only be creditable against Royalties payable to CSMC for the calendar year in which the third party payment was actually made by Licensee.

(d) Highest Royalty Due. If a Product is covered by both the definition of Patent Product and Other Product, CSMC shall be entitled to the Patent Product Royalty Rate on the Product as defined in Section 4.3(a)(i), but shall not be entitled to also receive the Other Product Royalty Rate on the same Product under Section 4.3(a)(ii). To the extent a Product ceases being a Patent Product, but is still an Other Product, CSMC shall be entitled to receive a Royalty on such Product at the Other Product Royalty Rate, but only for such time as specified in Section 4.3(g).

(e) Licensee Challenge of Patent Rights. Should Licensee bring, directly or through a third party indirectly, an action challenging the validity, scope or enforceability of any Patent Rights, Licensee will first provide CSMC with at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice that it intends so to do before filing such a challenge. Following the giving of such notice, Licensee will pay to CSMC the Royalties and Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue due hereunder at the rate of two times the applicable rate during the pendency of such action. Should the outcome of such action determine that any claim of a patent challenged by Licensee is valid and/or infringed and/or enforceable, as applicable, Licensee will thereafter pay to CSMC the Royalties and Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue due hereunder at the rate of three times the applicable rate for all Products sold that would infringe such claim and/or transactions that include a grant of rights to such claim. Such increased royalty reflects the increased value of the Patent Rights upheld in such action. In the event that a challenge to the Patent Rights brought by Licensee is partially or entirely successful, Licensee will have no right to recoup any Royalties or other amounts paid before or during the period of the challenge. Additionally, Licensee agrees to disburse any and all proceeds received from any sublicense of the applicable Patent Rights throughout the duration of any such challenge to CSMC, and agrees to reimburse CSMC for all costs actually incurred by CSMC in connection with the applicable legal proceedings. In the event that all or any portion of this Section 4.3(e) is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the parties will use their best efforts to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) with valid, legal and enforceable provision(s) which, insofar as practical, gives effect to the intent of this Section 4.3(e).

(f) Arm’s-Length Transactions. On sales of Products which are made in other than an arms’-length transaction, the value of the Net Sales attributed under this Section 4.3 to such a transaction shall be that which would have been received in an arms’-length transaction, based on sales of like quality and quantity products on or about the time of such transaction.

(g) Duration of Royalty Obligations. The royalty obligations of Licensee as to each Product shall terminate on a country-by-country and product-by-product basis concurrently with the expiration of:

(i) For Patent Products, the last to expire of a Valid Claim that covers such Patent Product, including any term extensions thereof, and

(ii) For Other Products, the longer of twenty (20) years after the first bona fide commercial sale of such Other Product in a country or expiration of any market exclusivity period granted by a regulatory agency for such Other Product.

(h) Non-Royalty Revenues.

(i) Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenues. Any and all “Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenues” shall be reported and paid to CSMC by Licensee as set forth below within sixty (60) days of receipt by Licensee. Licensee shall pay to CSMC a percentage of these Non- Royalty Sublicense Revenues according to the following schedule:

Date of Receipt of Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue		Percent of Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenues Payable to CSMC
Prior to receipt of FDA authorization of an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application or equivalent regulatory agency authorization in another jurisdiction for a Product		35%
After receipt of FDA authorization of an IND application for a Product or equivalent regulatory agency authorization in another jurisdiction, but prior to submission of a New Drug Application (“NDA”) or Biologics License Applications (BLA) to the FDA or equivalent regulatory agency in another jurisdiction		10%
After submission of an NDA/BLA for a Product but prior to receipt of FDA approval of an NDA/BLA or equivalent regulatory agency approval in another jurisdiction for a Product		8%
After receipt of FDA approval of an NDA/BLA or equivalent regulatory agency approval in another jurisdiction for a Product		5%

Any non-cash consideration received by Licensee from Permitted Sublicensees shall be valued at its fair market value as of the date of receipt and such amount shall be paid in cash to CSMC in accordance with the schedule above. In the event that the Patent Rights are sublicensed in combination with one or more patented technologies that are not covered under this Agreement, Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenues for the purposes of this Section 4.3(g) shall be calculated on a pro-rata basis in a manner to be mutually agreed by CSMC and Licensee (which agreement may be a condition of approval under Section 2.2).

(ii) Product Development Milestones. Licensee agrees to pay and shall pay to CSMC the following non-creditable, non-refundable product development milestone payments within sixty (60) days of the first occurrence of the following milestones (or their equivalents):

Milestone Event	Milestone Payment
Successful completion of Phase I clinical trial for a Product	$	150,000
Successful completion of a Phase II clinical trial for a product and receipt of FDA or equivalent regulatory agency in another jurisdiction and approval for a Phase III clinical trial	$	250,000
Receipt of FDA approval of a New Drug Application (“NDA”) or Biologics License Applications (“BLA”) or equivalent foreign regulatory approval in a non-United States major commercial market	$	1,500,000
Cumulative Net Sales have exceeded $50,000,000	$	2,500,000

(i) Payment and Accounting.

(i) Reports. Each payment of Royalties shall be accompanied by a report in the form attached as Schedule F hereto, which sets forth in reasonable detail the number and each type of Product sold and the calculation of Net Sales applicable thereto, and such additional details as may be reasonably requested by CSMC for the determination of Royalties payable hereunder. Products shall be considered as being sold for the purpose of the calculation of Royalties under this Agreement when the Products have been invoiced. Each payment of Non- Royalty Sublicense Revenue shall be accompanied by a report in the form attached as Schedule F hereto setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such amounts, and such additional details as may be reasonably requested by CSMC for the determination of Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue payable hereunder. All copies of reports under this Section shall be sent by electronic mail to ***@***. Except as otherwise provided herein, all amounts due hereunder shall be paid in United States dollars and shall be made without set off and free and clear of (and without any deduction or withholding for) any taxes, duties, levies, imposts or similar fees or charges. Royalties shall be payable by Licensee quarterly, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, based upon revenues accrued during the immediately preceding calendar quarter. Licensee agrees to pay and shall pay to CSMC, or cause its Permitted Sublicensees to pay to CSMC, all Royalties resulting from the activities of its Permitted Sublicensees, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter.

(ii) Notice of Payment. Licensee shall provide prompt written notice to CSMC that it has paid the licensee fee required by Section 4.1 or any product development milestone payment required by Section 4.3(h)(ii) by electronic mail to ***@***.

(iii) Wire Transfer Instructions. All payments due hereunder shall be made by Licensee to CSMC in accordance with the following wire transfer instructions:

City National Bank

400 N. Roxbury Drive

Beverly Hills, CA 90210

ABA# 122 016 066

Account Number: 210-132260

Account Name: Cedars-Sinai Medical Center – Tech Transfer

Reference: Tech Transfer – Enviro Therapeutics, Inc.

(iv) Records and Audits. Licensee shall create and maintain complete and accurate records and documentation concerning all sales of Products by Licensee, its Affiliates and Permitted Sublicensees as well as transactions based upon which Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue is due, in sufficient detail to enable the Royalties and Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue, respectively, that is payable hereunder to be determined. Licensee shall retain such records and documentation for not less than seven (7) years from the date of their creation. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years thereafter, CSMC and its representatives shall have the right to audit such records and documentation as shall pertain to the determination and payment of Royalties and Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue. Such examiners shall have reasonable access during regular business hours to Licensee’s offices and the relevant records, files and books of account, and shall have the right to examine any other records reasonably necessary to determine the accuracy of the calculations provided by Licensee. The costs of any such audit shall be borne by CSMC, unless as a result of such inspection it is determined that the amounts payable by Licensee for any period are in error by greater than five percent (5%), in which case the costs of such audit shall be borne by Licensee. CSMC shall report the results of any such audit to Licensee within forty-five (45) days of completion. Thereafter, Licensee shall promptly pay to CSMC the amount of any underpayment discovered in such audit, or CSMC shall credit to Licensee against future Royalty payments the amount of any overpayment discovered in such audit, as the case may be. In addition, Licensee shall pay interest on any underpayment at the rate that is the lower of (i) two percent (2%) over the rate of interest announced by Bank of America in Los Angeles, California (or any successor in interest thereto or any commercially equivalent financial institution if no such successor exists) to be its “prime rate”, or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, from the date such amount was underpaid to the date payment is actually received.

(v) Currency Transfer Restrictions. If any restrictions on the transfer of currency exist in any country or other jurisdiction so as to prevent Licensee from making payments to CSMC, Licensee shall take all commercially reasonable steps to obtain a waiver of such restrictions or to otherwise enable Licensee to make such payments. If Licensee is unable to do so, Licensee shall make such payments to CSMC in a bank account or other depository designated by CSMC in such country or jurisdiction, which payments shall be in the local currency of such country or jurisdiction, unless payment in United States dollars is permitted. Any payment by Licensee to CSMC in currencies other than United States dollars shall be calculated using the appropriate foreign exchange rate for such currency quoted in the California edition of The Wall Street Journal for the close of business of the last banking day of the calendar quarter in which such payment is being made.

(vi) Late Charges. A service charge of two percent (2%) per month, not to exceed the maximum rate allowed by applicable law, shall be payable by Licensee on any portion of Licensee’s outstanding Royalty or Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue balance or any other amount payable by Licensee hereunder (including, without limitation, reimbursement for Prosecution costs as set forth in Section 4.1 hereof) that is not paid to CSMC within thirty (30) days past the due date.

(vii) Taxes. Licensee shall pay, or cause to be paid, any and all taxes required to be paid or withheld on any sales, licenses or other transfers for value of Products or Patent Rights (other than taxes imposed on the income or revenues of CSMC); provided, however, that under no circumstances shall the amounts of such taxes be deducted from the total amount of payments otherwise due to CSMC hereunder. Upon CSMC’s request, Licensee shall secure and send to CSMC proof of any such taxes withheld and paid by Licensee, its Affiliates or Permitted Sublicensees.

(viii) No Escrow. Licensee shall pay all Royalties and Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue directly to CSMC and shall not pay royalties into any escrow or other similar account, including in the event of a validity or non-infringement challenge to the Patent Rights.

5. PATENT RIGHTS

5.1 Prosecution. Commencing on the Effective Date, Licensee shall assume, in coordination with CSMC, full responsibility for the application, maintenance, reexamination, reissue, opposition and prosecution of any kind (collectively “Prosecution”) relating to the Patent Rights in the Territory, including, but not limited to, payment of all costs, fees and expenses related thereto. Subject to the approval of CSMC (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), Licensee shall have the right to select counsel with respect to the responsibility assumed by Licensee in this Section 5.1, and Licensee shall diligently pursue the Prosecution of the Patent Rights to the benefit of CSMC. For all purposes of the patent Prosecution, CSMC shall be the named “client” of such patent counsel. Each party shall provide the other with copies of any and all material or communications with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, or any foreign patent office, and CSMC shall be afforded the opportunity of prior review and comment on such action or paper.

(a) Foreign Filings. Should Licensee elect not to file for patent protection for the Patent Rights in a certain national jurisdiction in the Territory, Licensee shall notify CSMC of such election at least forty-five (45) days before a final due date which would result in the bar of patent protection for the Patent Rights in such national jurisdiction. In such event, CSMC may, at its sole option and expense, file for patent protection for the Patent Rights in the applicable national jurisdiction, and Licensee’s license under this Agreement with respect to such national jurisdiction shall terminate, allowing CSMC to freely dispose of its Patent Rights in the applicable national jurisdiction as it sees fit in its sole discretion.

5.2 Abandonment, Disclaimers, etc. Licensee shall obtain the prior written consent of CSMC (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), prior to abandoning, disclaiming, withdrawing, seeking reissue, seeking reexamination or allowing to lapse any patent or patent application within the Patent Rights. In the event that Licensee shall elect to abandon the Prosecution (including the payment of maintenance fees or annuities) of any patent or patent application included in the Patent Rights, Licensee shall notify CSMC of such election at least forty-five (45) days before a final due date which would result in abandonment or bar of patentability of the patent or patent application. In such event, CSMC may, at its sole option and expense, continue Prosecution of the patent application or patent. Licensee further agrees that it shall not file any continuation-in-part application relating to the Patent Rights unless the additional disclosure or material to be included in the continuation-in-part application is necessary or appropriate to support the patentability of a claim recited in a parent application on which the continuation-in-part application is based. Licensee shall not file any continuation-in-part application without CSMC’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

5.3 Expenses. Licensee shall pay all expenses resulting from its obligations in Section 5.1 hereof. CSMC shall exercise reasonable efforts to cause the Inventors (to the extent they are available and on CSMC’s staff as employees) to cooperate fully with Licensee with respect to the Prosecution of the Patent Rights, and CSMC shall be reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as such expenses are incurred.

5.4 CREATE Act. Licensee shall not invoke the Cooperative Research and Technology Enhancement Act of 2004, as set forth under Title 35, Section 102(c) of the United States Code (the “CREATE Act”), with respect to the Patent Rights without first obtaining the prior written consent of CSMC.

6. TERM AND TERMINATION

6.1 Term. Unless earlier terminated as provided in Section 6.2 hereof, the term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall expire, on a country-by-country and product-by-product basis, on the later of (i) the date upon which the last to expire Valid Claim shall expire, (ii) twenty (20) years after the first bona fide commercial sale of an Other Product in the country in question or (iii) the expiration of any market exclusivity period granted by a regulatory agency.

6.2 Termination. Except as provided by Section 6.3 hereof, and in addition to the termination provisions of Sections 2.5, 2.6 and 5.1(a), this Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of the following:

(a) Automatically if Licensee shall enter into a liquidating bankruptcy, be adjudged insolvent, liquidate, dissolve and/or if the business of Licensee shall be placed in the hands of a receiver, assignee, or trustee, whether by voluntary act of Licensee or otherwise; provided, however, that if any such action is involuntary, termination shall not take place unless the action is not reversed within thirty (30) days. Further, Licensee shall give CSMC at least forty- five (45) days’ prior written notice before Licensee initiates any bankruptcy proceeding, and CSMC shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon receipt of such notice;

(b) Automatically if the performance by either party to this Agreement of any term, covenant, condition or provision hereof (i) shall jeopardize (A) the licensure of CSMC, (B) CSMC’s participation in the Medicare, Medi-Cal or other reimbursement or payment programs, (C) the full accreditation of CSMC by the Joint Commission of Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations or any other state or nationally recognized accreditation organization, or (D) CSMC’s tax-exempt status; or (ii) is deemed illegal or unethical by any recognized governmental agency or body. Upon the occurrence of any of the items set forth in this subparagraph (b), CSMC shall provide written notice to Licensee setting forth the reason for such termination (which termination shall be effective immediately);

(c) Upon thirty (30) days’ written notice from CSMC if, within such thirty (30) day period (i) Licensee shall fail to pay fully any Royalty or Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue payment required by Section 4.3 hereof, or (ii) Licensee shall fail to undertake commercially reasonable efforts to exploit the Patent Rights in the Field of Use in the Territory, regardless of Licensee’s satisfaction of the Milestones provided in Schedule D hereto;

(d) Upon sixty (60) days’ written notice from CSMC if, within such sixty (60) day period, Licensee shall fail to cure fully any breach or default of any material obligation under this Agreement as described in such written notice detailing the facts of such breach with reasonable specificity; provided, however, that Licensee may avoid such termination if, before the end of such 60-day period, such breach or default has been cured by Licensee to the reasonable satisfaction of CSMC;

(e) Upon ninety (90) days’ written notice from Licensee if, within such ninety (90) day period, CSMC shall fail to cure fully any breach or default of any material obligation under this Agreement as described in such written notice detailing the facts of such breach with reasonable specificity; provided, however, that CSMC may avoid such termination if, before the end of such 90-day period, such breach or default has been cured by CSMC to the reasonable satisfaction of Licensee; and

(f) Upon the mutual written agreement of the parties hereto (such termination to be effective as of the date mutually agreed upon in such written agreement).

6.3 Obligations Upon Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof, nothing herein shall be construed to release any party from any liability for any obligation incurred through the effective date of termination (e.g., confidentiality, reimbursement of patent expenses incurred prior to such date, etc.) or for any breach of this Agreement prior to the effective date of such termination. Licensee may, for a period of one (1) year after the effective date of such termination, sell all tangible Products customarily classified as “inventory” that it has on hand at the date of termination, subject to payment by Licensee to CSMC of the applicable Royalty and Non-Royalty Sublicense Revenue; provided, however, that any such action by Licensee does not subject CSMC to any of the occurrences set forth in Section 6.2(b) hereof.

6.4 Effect of Termination. In the event of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof, where such termination has not been caused by any action or inaction on the part of any Permitted Sublicensee of Licensee or by any breach by such Permitted Sublicensee of its obligations under its sublicense from Licensee, such termination of this Agreement shall be without prejudice to the rights of each non-breaching Permitted Sublicensee of Licensee and each non-breaching Permitted Sublicensee shall be deemed to be a licensee of CSMC thereunder, and CSMC shall be entitled to all rights, but shall not be subject to any obligations (other than the grant of license and appurtenant obligations under this Agreement to the extent provided for in such sublicense) of Licensee thereunder. This Section 6.4, however, shall not be applicable if this Agreement has been terminated under Section 6.2(b) under circumstances where the application of this Section 6.4 would subject CSMC to any of the occurrences set forth in Section 6.2(b).

6.5 Right to Institute Legal Actions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2 hereof, CSMC, on the one hand, and Licensee, on the other hand, may institute any other legal action or pursue any other remedy against the other party permitted by applicable law if the other party does not substantially cure any breach or default of any material obligation as provided herein.

6.6 Reversion of Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein (including, but not limited to, Section 5 hereof), full responsibility for Prosecution of the Patent Rights shall, at the option of CSMC (exercisable in its sole and absolute discretion), and at its sole expense from the date of reversion, revert to CSMC upon any termination of this Agreement.

6.7 Return of Data. In the event of any termination or expiration of this Agreement, Licensee shall promptly provide CSMC with copies of all data, information and materials obtained or generated by or on behalf of Licensee in the course of conducting research and developing Products using the Patent Rights and the Technical Information.

7. INFRINGEMENT BY THIRD PARTIES

7.1 Enforcement. Licensee shall have the first right and the obligation to enforce, at its sole expense, any Patent Rights to the extent licensed hereunder against infringement by third parties and shall notify CSMC in writing in advance of all such enforcement efforts. Upon Licensee’s undertaking to pay all expenditures reasonably incurred by CSMC, CSMC shall reasonably cooperate in any such enforcement and, as necessary, join as a party therein. Licensee shall reimburse CSMC for all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with any such enforcement. In the event that Licensee does not file suit against or commence and conclude settlement negotiations with a substantial infringer of Patent Rights within ninety (90) days of receipt of a written demand from CSMC that Licensee bring suit, then the parties will consult with one another in an effort to determine whether a reasonably prudent licensee would institute litigation to enforce the patent in question in light of all relevant business and economic factors (including, but not limited to, the projected cost of such litigation, the likelihood of success on the merits, the probable amount of any damage award, the prospects for satisfaction of any judgment against the alleged infringer, the possibility of counterclaims against the parties hereto, the impact of any possible adverse outcome on Licensee and the effect any publicity might have on the parties’ respective reputations and goodwill). If, after such process, it is determined that a suit should be filed and Licensee does not file suit or commence settlement negotiations forthwith against the infringer, then CSMC shall have the right, at its own expense, to enforce any Patent Rights licensed hereunder on behalf of itself and Licensee. Any damages or other recovery from an infringement action undertaken by Licensee shall first be used to reimburse the parties, on a pro rata pari passu basis, for the costs and expenses incurred in such action, and shall thereafter be allocated between the parties as follows: (i) fifty percent (50%) to CSMC and (ii) fifty percent (50%) to Licensee. If Licensee fails to prosecute any such action to completion, then any damages or other recovery net of the parties’ costs and expenses incurred in such infringement action shall be the sole property of CSMC.

7.2 Defense Of Patent Rights. In the event that any Patent Rights are the subject of a legal action seeking declaratory relief or of any reexamination, inter partes review, post grant review, opposition, or similar proceeding instituted by a third party, the parties agree to promptly consult with each other concerning the defense of such actions or proceedings. If the parties agree that such defense should be undertaken, then Licensee shall bear the expenses, including attorneys’ fees, associated with such defense and in any recoupment of expenses. If the parties disagree, then the party desiring to defend the action or proceeding may proceed with such defense and will bear its own expenses, and be entitled to all sums recovered.

8. INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Indemnification by Licensee. Subject to Section 8.2 hereof, Licensee shall hold harmless, defend and indemnify CSMC and each of its officers, directors, employees (including the Inventors), agents and sponsors of the research (except Licensee) (each, an “Indemnified Party”, and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and costs of investigation, whether or not suit is filed) suffered or incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties in any action, suit, litigation, arbitration or dispute of any kind (“Action”) arising or resulting from any negligence or willful acts or omissions on the part of Licensee, its Affiliates or Permitted Sublicensees in connection with (a) their use of the Patent Rights or Technical Information and/or (b) the exercise of their rights hereunder or under any sublicense, including, but not limited to (i) the preclinical development and clinical testing of Products, and (ii) the manufacture, sale, use, marketing, or other disposition of Products developed, manufactured, sold, marketed, used or otherwise disposed of under this Agreement. As part of its obligations hereunder, Licensee shall defend any Action brought against any of the Indemnified Parties with counsel of its own choosing and reasonably acceptable to CSMC, and neither CSMC nor any other Indemnified Party shall enter into any settlement of any such Action without first obtaining prior approval of Licensee. Licensee shall pay all costs, including attorney’s fees, incurred in enforcing this indemnification provision. Should CSMC or any other Indemnified Party not afford Licensee the right to defend any such Action, or should CSMC or any other Indemnified Party not obtain the approval of Licensee to any such settlement, Licensee shall have no obligation to indemnify CSMC or any other Indemnified Party hereunder. Should Licensee fail to provide a defense for the Indemnified Parties as required hereunder, then Licensee shall reimburse CSMC for its out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and costs of investigation) which are incurred as a result of any investigation, defense or settlement relating to the foregoing, which reimbursement shall be made to CSMC upon receipt by Licensee of invoices reflecting in reasonable detail such expenses incurred by CSMC. Licensee shall obtain and maintain insurance policies (including products liability and general liability policies at such time as is appropriate) which are reasonable and necessary to cover its activities and to comply with the indemnification obligations set forth above. Such insurance policies shall name CSMC as an additional insured party and shall provide a minimum of $3,000,000 in coverage per occurrence. Upon initiation of any human clinical studies of Products, Licensee shall have first increased its insurance coverage to a minimum of $10,000,000 in the aggregate. Licensee shall provide CSMC with prompt written notice of any material change in coverage under such policies. If the parties determine that evidence of Licensee’s insurance coverage is necessary and appropriate, within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date (subject to extension if reasonably required) and annually thereafter, Licensee shall provide CSMC with a certificate of insurance issued by the appropriate insurance company evidencing the insurance coverage required by this Section 8.1, together with copies of the endorsement which specifies CSMC as an additional insured and the declarations page for each such insurance policy. The certificate of insurance, endorsements and declarations pages (and any renewals or replacements thereof), if required, shall be sent to CSMC’s Technology Transfer Office by electronic mail at ***@***.

8.2 Notice of Claim. CSMC shall promptly notify Licensee in writing of any claim or Action or material threat thereof brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification may be sought and, to the extent allowed by law, shall reasonably cooperate with Licensee in defending or settling any such claim or Action. No settlement of any claim, Action or threat thereof received by CSMC and for which CSMC intends to seek indemnification (for itself or on behalf of any other Indemnified Party) shall be made without the prior joint written approval of Licensee and CSMC.

9. USE OF NAMES

9.1 CSMC Names and Marks. Licensee shall not, unless as required by any law or governmental regulation, use the name of CSMC, and/or any of its trademarks, service marks, trade names or fictitious business names or the name of any CSMC officer, faculty member, employee, student or volunteer (collectively, “CSMC Names and Marks”) without express prior written consent of the Vice President for Public Relations and Marketing of CSMC. Further, prior to any reference by Licensee to CSMC Names and Marks in any manner, Licensee shall provide CSMC with a writing reflecting the proposed reference so that CSMC can review the reference within a reasonable period of time prior to the proposed use thereof by Licensee. This limitation includes, but is not limited to, use by Licensee in any regulatory filing, advertising, offering circular, prospectus, sales presentation, news release or trade publication. Subject to compliance by Licensee with the foregoing, which shall be deemed conditions precedent to any use of CSMC Names and Marks by Licensee, Licensee shall ensure that the CSMC Names and Marks are used as scientifically or academically appropriate in the “byline” of any article, abstract, manuscript or any other publication related to the subject matter hereof.

9.2 No Endorsements by CSMC. By entering into this Agreement, CSMC does not directly or indirectly endorse any product or service provided, or to be provided, by Licensee whether directly or indirectly related to this Agreement. Licensee shall not state or imply that this Agreement is an endorsement by CSMC.

10. CONFIDENTIALITY

10.1 Non-Disclosure. The parties hereto shall keep the terms of this Agreement and all business and scientific discussions relating to the business of the parties strictly confidential. All patient information to which a party is given access by the other party shall be subject to the provisions of the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (Cal. Civ. Code §§56, et seq.) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, and all regulations promulgated thereunder. It may, from time to time, be necessary for the parties, in connection with performance under this Agreement, to disclose Confidential Information (including know-how) to each other. The Receiving Party (as defined in Section 1.2 hereof) shall keep in strictest confidence the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (as defined in Section 1.2 hereof), using the standard of care it normally uses for information of like character, and shall not disclose the Confidential Information to any third party or use it except as expressly authorized by the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement; provided, however, that Licensee may disclose the Confidential Information received from CSMC to its Affiliates and Permitted Sublicensees as shall be reasonably necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement or any sublicense granted by Licensee as contemplated by this Agreement if, but only if, such Affiliates and/or Permitted Sublicensees each execute a confidentiality agreement containing confidentiality provisions no less restrictive than those confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 10. The Receiving Party’s obligation hereunder shall not apply to Confidential Information that the Receiving Party can show:

(a) Is or later becomes part of the public domain through no fault or neglect of the Receiving Party;

(b) Is received in good faith from a third party having no obligations of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party, provided that the Receiving Party complies with any restrictions imposed by the third party;

(c) Is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or

(d) Is required by law or regulation to be disclosed (including, without limitation, in connection with FDA filings, filings with another government agency or as required under the California Public Records Act), provided that the Receiving Party uses reasonable efforts to restrict disclosure and to obtain confidential treatment.

10.2 Limits on Permitted Disclosures. Each party agrees that any disclosure or distribution of the other party’s Confidential Information within its own organization shall be made only as is reasonably necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement. The parties further agree that all of their respective officers, employees, agents, representatives or approved sublicensees to whom any Confidential Information is disclosed or distributed shall have agreed to maintain its confidentiality. In such event, the Receiving Party shall identify with reasonable particularity, upon request by the Disclosing Party, each person within the Receiving Party’s organization to whom the Receiving Party has disclosed or distributed Confidential Information.

10.3 Legally Required Disclosures. If a subpoena or other legal process concerning Confidential Information is served upon any party hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof, the party served shall notify the other party immediately, the other party shall cooperate with the party served, at the other party’s expense, in any effort to contest the validity of such subpoena or other legal process. This Section 10.3 shall not be construed in any way to limit any party’s ability to satisfy any disclosure of its relationship with the other party required by any governmental authority.

10.4 Patent Rights as Confidential Information. The Patent Rights are understood by Licensee to be the Confidential Information of CSMC to the extent “unpublished” as such term is construed under the United States Patent Laws. As such, Licensee’s confidentiality obligations hereunder automatically extend to any and all Technical Information and to any and all patent applications of CSMC relating to any Patent Rights, Technical Information and Improvements and to any and all communications with the United States Patent Office, and any foreign patent office relating to any Patent Rights, Technical Information or Improvements.

10.5 Return of Confidential Information. In the event of any termination of this Agreement, the Receiving Party shall promptly return all Confidential Information and any copies made thereof previously made available to the Receiving Party by the Disclosing Party.

10.6 Remedies. Both parties acknowledge and agree that it would be difficult to measure damages for breach by either party of the covenants set forth in this Section 10, and that injury from any such breach would be incalculable, and that money damages would therefore be an inadequate remedy for any such breach. Accordingly, either party shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies available hereunder or under law or equity, to injunctive or such other equitable relief as a court may deem appropriate to restrain or remedy any breach of such covenants.

11. INFORMATION EXCHANGE

In addition to the Patent Rights and Technical Information, the parties shall cooperate to exchange such non-confidential information as may be appropriate and necessary to facilitate Licensee’s development and commercialization of Products incorporating any Patent Rights or Technical Information.

12. PATENT MARKING

Licensee shall actually or virtually mark all Patent Products made, sold or otherwise disposed of by or on behalf of it or any of its Permitted Sublicensees as set forth under Title 35, Section 287(a) of the United States Code and shall respond to any request or disclosure under Title 35, Section 287(b)(4)(B) of the United States Code by only notifying CSMC of the request for disclosure.
