If Licensee fails to achieve such agreed upon First Commercial Sale within the agreed upon timeframe or if Licensee fails to meet the agreed upon milestones set forth in Appendix F-2 (as such due dates or milestones may be extended in accordance with Section 3.2(b)) by their respective due dates, Licensors may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3(b) but solely with respect to Licensee’s rights and licenses to the Category of [**] Products. For clarity, the foregoing diligence obligations shall be deemed satisfied if met by one

Table of Contents

[**] Product, and Licensee shall not be obligated to meet such diligence obligations with respect to any subsequent [**] Product.
(b)    Licensee shall notify Licensors in writing as each milestone set forth in Section 3.2(a) is met. If Licensee requires an extension of any milestones or due dates set forth in Section 3.2(a) or Appendix F, Licensee shall inform Penn of such extension in writing at least [**] prior to the required due dates, fully describing Licensee’s diligent efforts to achieve the milestone or due date to date, establishing the new due date, and describing Licensee’s plan to meet such new due date. Later-in-time milestone due dates shall automatically be deemed to have been extended by the same amount of time. However, if Penn reasonably objects to such extension within [**] after receipt of Licensee’s extension notice, the terms of such extension (including whether to grant such extension) shall be negotiated by the parties in good faith, unless Licensee sends to Penn documentation demonstrating that Licensee has spent the below amounts in respect of the Licensed Product whose milestones Licensee is seeking to extend, in which case Penn’s objection as to whether to grant an extension shall be deemed to have been overcome, and the parties shall agree on reasonable extension dates; however, Licensee may only use such justification for an extension two times per milestone.

3.3    Clinical Trials. University of Florida or Penn policies may require approval of clinical trials at the University of Florida or Penn (as applicable) involving technology invented at the University of Florida or at Penn (as applicable).  Accordingly, Licensee will notify the applicable Licensor prior to commencing any clinical trials involving a Licensed Product at such Licensor or its affiliated medical facilities.
Section 4    Payments
4.1    License Issue Fee. Licensee shall pay to Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, a non-refundable license issue fee of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date.
4.2    Annual License Maintenance Fee. Starting with the first anniversary of the Effective Date, Licensee shall pay to Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, an annual license maintenance fee of [**] dollars ($[**]) each year, to be paid within [**] after each anniversary of the Effective Date of this Agreement. The annual license maintenance fee is payable until the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product, after which time the royalties set forth in Section 4.4, instead of the annual license maintenance fee, shall become due and payable to Penn on

13

Table of Contents

behalf of both Licensors. The annual license maintenance fees paid by Licensee are not creditable against any royalties that become due and payable under this Agreement.
4.3    Patent Application Grant Fee. In the event that a U.S. patent that claims inventions that are disclosed in the Licensed Information, [**] Patent, and/or inventions generated under the Penn SRA, Three-Party SRA or UF SRA is issued and is exclusively licensed to Licensee under this Agreement, Licensee shall pay Penn a one-time, non-refundable and non-creditable patent grant fee of [**] dollars ($[**]) within [**] of the later of the date of the issuance of such patent or the date when such patent is exclusively licensed to Licensee under this Agreement. This fee shall be payable no more than once. Notwithstanding the foregoing, patents issued from patent applications filed prior to the Effective Date are excluded, other than the [**] Patent.
4.4    Royalty on Licensed Products. Licensee shall pay Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, earned royalties calculated as a percentage of Net Sales. Earned royalties are earned as of the earlier of (i) the date the Licensed Product is actually sold and paid for and (ii) the date an invoice is sent by Licensee, its Affiliates and/or its Sublicensee(s), or as of the date a Licensed Product is transferred to a Third Party for promotional reasons. Licensee shall pay to Penn royalties as follows, on a country-by-country basis:
(a)    [**] percent ([**]%) for Net Sales of Licensed Products that are Covered by a Valid Claim of the Patent Rights in the country in which such Licensed Product is sold, which royalty obligation under this Section 4.4(a) shall terminate, on a country-by-country basis, when the Licensed Product is no longer Covered by a Valid Claim of the Patent Rights in the country in which such Licensed Product is sold. In the event of Loss of Market Exclusivity with respect to a Licensed Product in a particular country, the royalty due under this clause Section 4.4(a), if applicable, shall, starting with the calendar quarter following such Loss of Market Exclusivity, be reduced for the remainder of the Royalty Term for such Licensed Product or the period of time that a Loss of Market Exclusivity for such Licensed Product exists in such country, whichever is shorter, to [**] percent ([**]%) for Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country. For the avoidance of confusion, in each case with respect to sales of a Licensed Product in a particular country, if a royalty reduction for Loss of Market Exclusivity has been applied pursuant to the previous sentence, then a royalty reduction for royalty payments to third parties pursuant to Section 4.4(d) may not be applied.
(b)    [**] percent ([**]%) for Net Sales of Licensed Products that are not subject to Section 4.4(a) above, but are sold during a period of Regulatory Exclusivity for such Licensed Product in the country in which such Licensed Product is sold, which royalty obligation under this Section 4.4(b) shall terminate, on a country-by-country basis, when the Licensed Product is no longer sold during a period of Regulatory Exclusivity for such Licensed Product in the country in which such Licensed Product is sold. In the event of Loss of Market Exclusivity with respect to a Licensed Product in a particular country, the royalty due under this clause Section 4.4(b), if applicable, shall, starting with the calendar quarter following such Loss of Market Exclusivity, be reduced for the remainder of the Royalty Term for such Licensed Product or the period of time that a Loss of Market Exclusivity for such Licensed Product exists in such

14

Table of Contents

country, whichever is shorter, to [**] percent ([**]%) for Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country.
(c)    [**] percent ([**]%) for Net Sales of Licensed Products that are not subject to either of Sections 4.4(a) or 4.4(b) above, which royalty obligation under this Section 4.4(c) shall terminate on the date that is ten (10) years after the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product.
(d)    If Licensee has or obtains a license(s) from a Third Party(ies) to patent rights or other intellectual property rights that are necessary to research, develop, make, have made, use, have used, offer to sell, sell, import, export or commercialize a Licensed Product(s), Licensee, subject to the proviso to this sentence, may offset [**]%) of any royalty payments actually paid by Licensee to such Third Party(ies) under such license(s) with respect to sales of such Licensed Product(s) in a country against the royalty payments that are due to Penn with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Products in such country under Section 4.4(a); provided that in no event shall the royalty payments under Section 4.4(a) to Penn with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Products in such country be reduced as a result of the application of this Section 4.4(d) by more than [**]%) of the amount otherwise due under Section 4.4(a). For clarity, the royalty due under Section 4.4(a) shall not be reduced beyond a floor of [**] percent ([**]%) during the period such royalty is applicable to the Licensed Product in the applicable country. Any amounts that are not offset during a reporting period shall be creditable against payments arising in subsequent reporting periods. For clarity, Licensee shall be responsible for making all payments to Third Parties in respect of any such necessary intellectual property rights.
(e)    Within [**] after the end of each calendar quarter ending on March 31, June 30, September 30 or December 31, Licensee shall pay amounts owing to Penn under this Section 4.4 for such calendar quarter. Royalties are not additive, but are payable based on the highest applicable rate that is calculated according to this Section 4.4. Royalties shall be payable, on a country-by-country and Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, until the latest of (i) the expiration of the last-to-expire Patent Rights if the making, having made, using, offering to sell, selling or importing of such Licensed Product by Licensee, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees (or the distributors of any of them) is Covered by a Valid Claim of the Patent Rights in the country in which the Licensed Product is sold, (ii) the expiration of Regulatory Exclusivity in the country in which such Licensed Product is sold or (iii) ten (10) years from the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in the country in which the Licensed Product is sold (the “Royalty Term”).
4.5    Minimum Royalty.
(a)    Licensee shall pay Penn a minimum annual royalty (“Minimum Annual Royalty”) of $[**] during the period set forth in Section 4.5(b).
(b)    Beginning on the earlier of (i) the calendar year following the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product or (ii) calendar year [**], the Minimum Annual Royalty shall be due on January 15 of each calendar year. The Minimum Annual Royalty paid to Penn

15

Table of Contents

for a given calendar year shall be credited toward earned royalties payable to Penn, but only for royalties based on Net Sales made in such given calendar year.
4.6    Milestone Payments.
(a)    Licensee shall pay Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, the below milestone payments within [**] after Licensee, or any Affiliate or Sublicensee, first (and only the first time) achieves the corresponding milestone for a first Licensed Product:
Event    Milestone Payment
One-Time Clinical or Regulatory Milestones

First instance of calendar year Net Sales of $[**]    $[**]
First instance of calendar year Net Sales of $[**]    $[**]
Each time a Clinical or Regulatory Milestone set forth above for a first Licensed Product is achieved, then any Clinical or Regulatory Milestone Payments with respect to earlier Clinical or Regulatory Milestones set forth above for the same Licensed Product shall, to the extent not previously paid, be due and payable together with the achieved Clinical or Regulatory Milestone irrespective of whether such earlier Clinical or Regulatory Milestone(s) was actually achieved; provided, however, that a Regulatory Approval or reimbursement approval Clinical or Regulatory Milestone in one territory shall not be deemed to be a Clinical or Regulatory Milestone that is earlier than any other Regulatory Approval or reimbursement approval Clinical or Regulatory Milestone in another territory.
For the purpose of clarification, if calendar year worldwide Net Sales for the first Licensed Product are $[**] in Year 1 and $[**] in Year 2, a sales milestone of $[**] is payable on account of Year 1 and a sales milestone of $[**] is payable on account of Year 2. If calendar year worldwide Net Sales for the first Licensed Product are $[**] in Year 1 and $[**] in Year 2, a sales milestone of $[**] is payable on account of Year 1 and a sales milestone of $[**] is payable on account of Year 2.
(b)    In the event that Licensee pursues both Categories of Licensed Products, then Licensee shall pay Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, the following one-time, non-

refundable and non-creditable Milestone Payments within [**] after Licensee, or any Affiliate or Sublicensee, first (and only the first time) achieves the corresponding milestone for a Licensed Product from a different Category than the Licensed Product that first achieves the same milestone event under Section 4.6(a) above:

Each time a Clinical or Regulatory Milestone set forth above for a subsequent Licensed Product is achieved, then any Clinical or Regulatory Milestone Payments with respect to earlier Clinical or Regulatory Milestones set forth above for the same Licensed Product shall, to the extent not previously paid, be due and payable together with the achieved Clinical or Regulatory Milestone irrespective of whether such earlier Clinical or Regulatory Milestone(s) was actually achieved; provided, however, that a Regulatory Approval or reimbursement approval Clinical or Regulatory Milestone in one territory shall not be deemed to be a Clinical or Regulatory Milestone that is earlier than any other Regulatory Approval or reimbursement approval Clinical or Regulatory Milestone in another territory. For the avoidance of doubt, if the subsequent Licensed Product that achieves any of the foregoing milestone events is in the same Category as the first Licensed Product to achieve the same milestone event, then the milestones for such subsequent Product will not be due.
4.7    Sublicense Fees.
(a)    For purposes of this Section 4.7, the following defined terms shall have the following meanings:
(i)    “Sublicense Income” shall mean any consideration such as fees, minimum royalties, milestone payments or other payments received by Licensee or any of its Affiliates from a Third Party based on an agreement or series of related agreements involving a Sublicense of the Patent Rights to a Third Party other than (A) payments for running royalties

(ii)    “Third Party Allocated Sublicense Income” shall mean the portion of any Sublicense Income reasonably allocable to Third Party intellectual property rights that are necessary to research, develop, make, have made, use, have used, offer to sell, sell, import, export or commercialize a Licensed Product and that have been in-licensed or acquired by Licensee and included with the Sublicense of the Patent Rights to a Third Party, which portion shall not exceed [**]%) of the total amount of Sublicense Income received by Licensee and any of its Affiliates, as further adjusted by the proviso immediately following the table in Section 4.7(b) below; and
(iii)    “Licensor Allocated Sublicense Income” shall mean (A) the total amount of Sublicense Income received by Licensee and any of its Affiliates less (B) any Third Party Allocated Sublicense Income.
(b)    If Licensee or any of its Affiliates receives any Sublicense Income then Licensee shall pay Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, within [**] of receipt of such Sublicense Income, the following percentages of the portion of such Sublicense Income constituting the Licensor Allocated Sublicense Income, based upon on the status, at the time of entering into the Sublicense, of clinical development of each Licensed Product which is the subject of the particular Sublicense:

Table of Contents

If under the Sublicense the Licensee receives Sublicense Income that is not attributable to any particular Licensed Product (e.g., an upfront payment), then the percentage applied to such payment will be based upon the status of the most advanced Licensed Product licensed under the Sublicense. By way of example and not limitation, (i) assuming [**].
(c)    If Licensee receives consideration other than cash, Licensee and Penn will cooperate in good faith to perform a valuation of the non-cash consideration portion received in exchange for the Sublicense and such valuation shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof for calculating the Sublicense fee of the non-cash consideration portion to be paid to Penn. Licensee agrees to provide to Penn under terms of confidentiality the executed documentation related to the Sublicense resulting in the non-cash consideration including all terms without redaction that are necessary to perform a valuation of the non-cash consideration and the parties shall in good faith determine the value of such non-cash consideration by mutual agreement.
4.8    FDA Priority Review Voucher. In the event Licensee or its Affiliate receives an FDA Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher based on a Regulatory Approval of a Licensed Product, then Licensee shall promptly provide written confirmation to Penn that it or its Affiliate received such PRV.

If Licensee or its Affiliate receives consideration other than cash, Licensee and Penn (on behalf of Licensors) will cooperate in good faith to perform a valuation of the non-cash consideration portion received in exchange for the PRV and such valuation shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof for calculating the fee for the non-cash consideration portion to be paid to Penn (on behalf of Licensors). Licensee agrees to provide to Penn (on behalf of Licensors) under terms of confidentiality the executed documentation related to the transaction resulting in the non-cash consideration including all terms without redaction that are necessary for Penn (on behalf of Licensors), by itself or through an auditor reasonably acceptable to Licensee, to perform a valuation of the non-cash consideration.
(b)    In the event Licensee or its Affiliate uses the PRV for a Licensee product or Licensee’s Affiliate product (other than a Licensed Product), then Licensee will pay Penn (on behalf of Licensors):
(i)    [**] dollars ($[**]) within [**]; and
(ii)    [**] dollars ($[**]) as a one-time sales milestone, payable within [**] after the end of the calendar year when the aggregate calendar year net sales throughout the world of such product by Licensee, its Affiliate(s) and its sublicensee(s) have reached [**] dollars ($[**]), provided that

(c)    UFRF shall, with respect to the [**] Patent and any related Patent Rights, remain in compliance with The Patent and Trademark Law Amendments Act of 1980 (Public Law 96-517; 35 U.S.C. §§ 200-212), including any amendments thereto and all regulations promulgated thereunder, and shall reasonably assist Licensee in complying with Licensee’s obligations under such law, including, as applicable, that set forth in Section 17.1.
(d)    Licensee shall have the sole right in electing which of the Patent Rights related to the [**] Patent shall receive any patent term extension under 35 U.S.C. § 156 in the United States, supplemental protection certificate in the European Union and similar rights in foreign jurisdictions. UFRF and Licensee shall cooperate in timely filing and obtaining the patent term extension, supplemental protection certificate and similar rights for such Patent Right(s) elected by Licensee.
7.4    Licensee may elect upon [**] prior written notice to decline to reimburse UFRF for patent expenses for any Patent Right related to the [**] Patent in any particular country or jurisdiction, provided that if Licensee elects to decline to reimburse UFRF for such patent expenses in any of [**], then upon such election, the license granted to Licensee by this

Agreement terminates after the [**] with respect to the applicable Patent Right in that country or jurisdiction.
7.5    Patent prosecution of any Patent Rights other than Patent Rights related to the [**] Patent shall be subject to a separate written agreement between the parties, which will provide Licensee with information, review and consultation rights substantially similar to those set forth in this Article 7.
Section 8    Infringement and Invalidity
8.1    Information. Each party shall inform the other parties promptly in writing of any (i) alleged infringement of the Patent Rights by a Third Party and of any available evidence of the alleged infringement or (ii) declaratory judgment action or post grant challenge (e.g., a post-grant review or inter partes review) brought against Licensors or Licensee with respect to the Patent Rights. None of the parties shall charge a Third Party with infringement of the Patent Rights without first consulting with the other parties regarding such proposed action; provided that Licensee, upon prior written notification to Licensors, shall be entitled to take such actions (including notifying Third Parties of infringement or instituting a lawsuit) as are reasonably necessary to timely comply with and preserve all rights under the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act in the United States and comparable laws in other applicable countries.
8.2    Infringement Enforcement. During the term of this Agreement:
(a)    Licensee shall prosecute any infringement of the Patent Rights at its own expense.  If Licensee prosecutes any infringement, Licensors agree that Licensee may include either or both Licensors as co-plaintiffs in any infringement suit in all cases without expense to Licensors; provided Licensee must provide prior, written reasonable notice to Licensors and obtain prior consent from Licensors, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, prior to their inclusion as a party plaintiff and prior to the filing of the infringement action; provided further that Licensors shall consent to being included as a co-plaintiff in any infringement suit if the infringement is by a Third Party product of commercial significance that is competitive with a Licensed Product and (i) Licensors  have received prior written notification from Licensee, (ii) Licensors being named as a party plaintiff is required for matters of standing, and (iii) Licensee has provided Licensors with (a) a written estimate from an outside law firm of the expenses that would be reasonably incurred in connection with such action and (b)  documentation of financial records reasonably sufficient to reasonably demonstrate that Licensee has the financial wherewithal to pay such expenses as they fall due through the conclusion of such suit by means of judgement or other non-appealable decision. Licensee may not enter any settlement, consent judgment, or other voluntary final disposition of the suit without the prior, written consent of Licensors, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld.  Licensee shall indemnify Licensors against any order for costs that may be made against Licensors in any proceeding undertaken pursuant to Section 8.1 and this Section 8.2(a).
(b)    If, within [**] after receiving notice of, or otherwise becoming aware of, an alleged infringement, Licensee is unsuccessful in persuading the alleged infringer to desist, has not brought an infringement action against the alleged infringer, or notifies Penn or UFRF, as

25

Table of Contents

applicable, of its intention not to bring suit against the alleged infringer, then, and in those events only, Licensors may but are not obligated to prosecute at their own expense the alleged infringement of the Patent Rights. Licensors may use the name of Licensee as party plaintiff in the infringement action (in which case the applicable Licensor must provide reasonable notice to Licensee of its inclusion as party plaintiff prior to the filing of the infringement action). Licensors may not enter any settlement, consent judgment, or other voluntary final disposition of the suit without the prior, written consent of Licensee, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Licensors shall indemnify Licensee against any order for costs that may be made against Licensee in any proceedings undertaken pursuant to this Section 8.2(b).
(c)    If a declaratory judgment action or post grant challenge (e.g., a post-grant review or inter partes review) is brought against Licensors or Licensee by a Third Party alleging invalidity, unpatentability, unenforceability, or non-infringement of the Patent Rights, Licensee, if it is the sole licensee of the Patent Rights, shall be responsible for the sole defense of the action. Such defense shall be at Licensee’s sole expense, subject to Sections 8.3 and 8.4. If Licensee does not defend such action if brought in [**], then Licensors, at their option, may within [**] after commencement of the action take over the sole defense of the action at their own expense and terminate the license in respect of the applicable Patent Rights.
8.3    Voluntary Joinder. If Licensee undertakes the enforcement or defense of the Patent Rights by litigation, either or both Licensors may voluntarily join the litigation, represented by its own counsel at its own expense.
8.4    Recovery. Licensee shall apply any recovery of damages first in satisfaction of any unreimbursed expenses and legal fees of Licensee relating to the suit and next toward reimbursement of Licensors for any legal fees and unreimbursed expenses. Licensee and Licensors shall divide the balance remaining from any recovery as follows. If Licensee conducts the litigation and Licensors have not co-funded the cost of the action, then the balance remaining shall be divided by allocating [**] percent ([**]%) of such balance to Licensee, on the one hand, and [**] percent ([**]%) of such balance to Licensors, on the other hand. If Licensors have co-funded at least fifty percent (50%) of the cost of the action, then the balance remaining shall be divided by allocating fifty percent (50%) of such balance to Licensee, on the one hand, and fifty percent (50%) to Licensors, on the other hand. In the event that the Licensors [**] percent ([**]%) of the cost of such action, the Parties shall implement an equitable allocation of any remaining balance between the Licensee, on the one hand, and the Licensors, on the other hand based upon such co-funding percentage and the allocations provided under this Section 8.4.
8.5    Cooperation. In any suit in which Licensee or either Licensor is involved to enforce or defend the Patent Rights pursuant to this Agreement, the other parties shall, at the request and expense of the party initiating the suit, cooperate in all respects and, to the extent possible, have its employees testify when requested and make available relevant records, papers, information, samples, specimens, and the like.
8.6    Patent Challenge. If Licensee (or its Affiliate) or any Sublicensee (or its Affiliate) brings a Patent Challenge against any Patent Rights, unless Licensors terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.4, Licensee shall continue to pay royalties and make other payments

26

Table of Contents

pursuant to this Agreement with respect to that patent as if the contest were not underway until the patent is adjudicated invalid or unenforceable by a court of last resort. If Licensee does not continue to pay royalties and make other payments pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the applicable Patent Rights as if the contest were not underway, and if at the end of such contest Patent Rights covering Licensed Products remain valid, then all royalties and other payments due under this Agreement with respect to such Patent Rights will be increased by [**] percent ([**]%).
Section 9    Term and Termination
9.1    Term. The term of this Agreement begins on the Effective Date and continues until the latest to end of each of the royalty obligations set forth in Section 4.4(a), (b) and (c), unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Section 9.
9.2    Licensee Termination.
(a)    Before the Effectiveness of IND. Licensee may terminate this Agreement in its entirety or with respect to a particular Category of Licensed Products at any time prior to an IND for a Licensed Product in such Category becoming effective by giving at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Penn, on behalf of both Licensors. Licensee shall include a statement of the reasons for termination, if any, in the notice. For clarity, Licensee may terminate pursuant to this subsection (a) with respect to the Category of [**] Products only, or with respect to the Category of [**] Products only, without affecting its rights or obligations to the other Category of Licensed Products.
(b)     After the Effectiveness of IND. If an IND for a Licensed Product in a particular Category becomes effective, then this Agreement shall be non-cancellable under Section 9.2 with respect to such Category, except that Licensee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Category by providing Penn written notice, certified by an officer of the Licensee, that Licensee is ceasing all use, research and development of, manufacture of, sales, importation of, or any commercialization of all Licensed Products in such Category (other than any further use that is necessary to comply with any applicable regulatory requirements arising from studies and trials initiated prior to notice of termination of this Agreement with respect to such Category, for which Licensee shall provide Penn with a semiannual written summary of any ongoing uses of the Licensed Products, in such Category including the purpose of such ongoing uses and the expected duration of such uses, and shall confirm in writing when such use has ceased). For clarity, Licensee may terminate pursuant to this subsection (b) with respect to the Category of [**] Products only, or with respect to the Category of [**] Products only, without affecting its rights or obligations to the other Category of Licensed Products.
(c)    Material Breach by Penn or UFRF. If Penn or UFRF commits a material breach of this Agreement at any time, then Licensee may give Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, written notice specifying the nature of the default, requiring Penn or UFRF, as applicable, to cure such breach, and stating its intention to terminate this Agreement. If such breach is not cured within [**] of such notice and Penn fails to provide Licensee with a plan to cure such breach that

27

Table of Contents

is reasonably acceptable to Licensee, such termination shall become effective upon a notice of termination by Licensee thereafter to Penn.
9.3    Licensors’ Termination. If Licensee commits a material breach of this Agreement, Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, may give to Licensee written notice specifying the nature of the default, requiring it to cure such breach, and stating its intention to terminate this Agreement. If such breach is not cured within [**] in the case of payment breaches, provided that in the case of good faith payment disputes, such cure period shall be tolled in respect of, and only to the extent of, amounts actually being disputed during the pendency of any dispute resolution proceeding in which the amount due is being disputed in good faith, until the resolution of the disputed amount due, in which case Licensee may cure such payment breach by paying the amount determined to be due, if any, within [**] after such resolution) of such notice and Licensee fails to provide Licensors with a plan to cure such breach that is reasonably acceptable to either Licensor, such termination shall become effective upon a notice of termination by Licensors thereafter. For clarity, a material breach includes but is not limited to:
(a)    Licensee being delinquent in timely providing any report, payment or required documents as specified in any section of this Agreement or provides a materially deficient report, payment or required document as specified in any section of this Agreement;
(b)    Licensee being in breach of its obligations under Section 3.1(a), 3.1(b) or 3.2(a); provided that, Licensee’s failure to satisfy its obligations under Sections 3.1(a), 3.1(b) or 3.2(a) with respect to only one Category of Licensed Products (e.g., [**] Products or [**] Products) shall only permit Penn and UFRF to terminate the licenses and rights granted to Licensee under this Agreement with respect to such Category and shall not affect Licensee’s rights or obligations with respect to the other Category; provided, further that, Licensee’s failure to meet the milestones set forth in Section 3.2(a)(i) and Appendix F-1 shall only permit Penn and UFRF to terminate the licenses and rights granted to Licensee under this Agreement with respect to the Category of [**] Products and shall not affect Licensee’s rights or obligations with respect to the [**] Products, and similarly, Licensee’s failure to meet the milestones set forth in Section 3.2(a)(ii) and Appendix F-2 shall only permit Penn and UFRF to terminate the licenses and rights granted to Licensee under this Agreement with respect to the Category of [**] Products and shall not affect Licensee’s rights or obligations with respect to the [**] Products;
(c)    Licensee violating any laws or regulations in a manner that is material to the development or commercialization of Licensed Products; and
(d)    Licensee providing any report to either or both Licensors containing intentionally false or misleading information.
Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, may also terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Licensee in the event that (i) Licensee goes into bankruptcy, liquidation or proposes having a receiver control any of its assets (unless such action is dismissed within thirty (30) days); (ii) Licensee ceases to carry on the entirety of its business pertaining to Patent Rights or Licensed Information; or (iii) Licensee ceases for more than four (4) consecutive calendar

28

quarters to make any payment of earned royalties under Section 4.4 once begun, unless such cessation is based on safety concerns that Licensee is actively attempting to address.
9.4    If Licensee or any of its Affiliates brings a Patent Challenge against Licensors or assists others in bringing a Patent Challenge against Licensors (except as required under a court order or subpoena or as part of proceedings initiated by a patent office and not provoked by Licensee or its Affiliate), then Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, may immediately terminate this Agreement. If a Sublicensee or any Sublicensee Affiliate brings a Patent Challenge or assists another party in bringing a Patent Challenge (except as required under a court order or subpoena or as part of proceedings initiated by a patent office and not provoked by Sublicensee or its Affiliate), then Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, may send a written demand to Licensee to terminate the Sublicense. If Licensee fails to terminate the Sublicense within forty five (45) days after Licensors’ demand, Penn, on behalf of both Licensors, may immediately terminate this Agreement.
9.5    License Survival. Upon any expiration of this Agreement under Section 9.1 (but not earlier termination), the licenses granted to Licensee under Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 shall become fully paid-up and perpetual, on a country-by-country basis or with respect to the Licensed Territory, as applicable.
9.6    Licensee Payment Defaults. Licensee’s cure period under Section 9.3 shall be decreased to [**] upon the occurrence of the second separate failure by Licensee within any consecutive two-year period to pay at least [**] percent ([**]%) of any monies due under this Agreement when due.
9.7    Effects of Certain Terminations. In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.2, 9.3, or 9.4, the licenses granted to Licensee under Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 shall terminate, but Licensee may elect to have any then-existing Sublicenses survive as direct licenses from Licensors (provided that the applicable Sublicensees are in good standing thereunder and are not in material breach of any material obligation or term under this Agreement including Section 2.4) and such survival will be accepted by Licensors. Each Sublicense surviving as a direct license as set forth herein will remain in full force and effect with Licensors as the licensor or sublicensor instead of Licensee, but the duties and obligations of Licensors under such surviving Sublicenses will not be greater than the duties of Licensors under this Agreement, and the rights of Licensors under such surviving Sublicenses will not be less than the rights of Licensors under this Agreement.
9.8    Accrued Obligations. Termination of this Agreement for any reason does not release either Licensee or Licensors from any obligation that matured prior to the effective date of termination. Licensee remains obligated to provide an accounting for and to pay royalties earned as well as pay any other amounts due including patent expenses incurred during the term of the Agreement. Licensee may prorate any minimum royalties that are due as of the date of termination by the number of days elapsed in the applicable calendar year. Licensee and its Sublicensees may, however, during the [**] after the effective date of termination, sell any Licensed Products that are in inventory and complete and sell Licensed Products that are in the process of manufacture, provided that Licensee provides an accounting for and pays all earned

29

Table of Contents

royalties and other payments that are due under the terms of the Agreement for such sales of Licensed Products.
9.9    Survival. Upon termination of the Agreement for any reason, defined terms and the following sections of the License Agreement remain in force as non-cancelable obligations: 4.8, 5.3, 6 (except 6.3(c) and 6.3(d)), 8.5, 9.7-9.11, 11, 12, 13 (except 13.3), 14, 15.1, 15.2, 15.3, 15.5(a), 15.6, 15.7, 15.8, 15.10, 15.11, 15.12, 15.13, 16, 18 and 20.
9.10    Upon early termination (but not expiration) of the Agreement for any reason, Licensee shall, at its option, return to Penn and UFRF or destroy (followed by written certification by Licensee of such destruction) all Licensed Information and Know-How Controlled by Licensee, its Affiliates or Sublicensees as the date of termination, and shall cease using all Licensed Information and Know-How for any purpose (other than any further use that is necessary to comply with any applicable regulatory requirements arising from studies and trials initiated prior to notice of termination of this Agreement, for which Licensee shall provide Penn with a semiannual written summary of any ongoing uses of the Licensed Information and Know-How, including the purpose of such ongoing uses and the expected duration of such uses, and shall confirm in writing when such use has ceased).
9.11    In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.2, Licensee agrees to promptly meet with Licensors and consider Licensors’ interest in obtaining, on commercially reasonable terms, a license to or assignment of Licensee’s right, title and interest in any Licensed Product in the possession or control of Licensee and in any intellectual property developed by or on behalf of Licensee relating to this Agreement, including, whether or not patentable, (i) data (including but not limited to preclinical data and clinical data), (ii) reports including, but not limited to, study reports, (iii) manufacturing data, batch records, and reports, (iv) inventions, and (v) documents submitted to and received from regulatory agencies and documents relied on in support of regulatory filings, in each case generated by or on behalf of the Licensee and in the possession or control of the Licensee. For the avoidance of doubt, Licensee has sole discretion as to whether to enter into such a license or an assignment with Licensors.
Section 10    No Discrimination Neither Licensors nor Licensee will discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, sex, sexual or affectional preference, age, religion, national or ethnic origin, handicap, or veteran status. However, a breach of this Section 10 by any party shall not entitle any other party(ies) to terminate this Agreement so long as the breaching party is taking good faith efforts to investigate, and if applicable, remediate (including via discipline) such discrimination in compliance with applicable discrimination laws. For the avoidance of doubt, an alleged discrimination shall not constitute a breach of this Section 10.

Section 11    Assignability
(a)    This Agreement may not be transferred or assigned by Licensee except with the prior written consent of Licensors, except that Licensee may assign this Agreement without prior written consent of Licensors (i) to a wholly-owned Affiliate, (ii) to an Affiliate that

30

is not wholly-owned if Licensee (or its successor following an assignment pursuant to this Section 11) has a market capitalization of at least [**] Dollars ($[**]) at the time of such assignment, and in the case of (i) and (ii) provided that Licensee remains liable for any breach of this Agreement by the Affiliate, or (iii) in connection with sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the business or the assets, as applicable, of the  business to which this Agreement relates, including by way of sale of assets, merger or consolidation, and in each case of (i), (ii) and (iii)  provided that (A) there exists no uncured financial breach by the Licensee or its Affiliates of any material term of this Agreement, including those caused by a Sublicensee at the time of the assignment; (B) within [**] of the consummation of such transaction, Licensee shall give notice of the transaction to Licensors; and (C) the assignee agrees in writing to (x) be legally bound by this Agreement; (y) assume responsibility for any and all liabilities that arose under this Agreement prior to the effective date of the proposed assignment of this Agreement, and (z) deliver to Licensors an updated Development Plan within [**] after the closing of the proposed transaction.
(b)    This Agreement may not be transferred or assigned by any of the Licensors except with the prior written consent of Licensee, except that any Licensor may assign this Agreement (i) to an Affiliate or (ii) in connection with sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the business and assets of such party to which this Agreement relates, including by way of sale of assets, merger or consolidation, in each case ((i) or (ii)) without prior written consent of Licensee, provided that such Licensor shall provide prompt written notice to the other parties following such assignment. Licensors shall not assign any Patent Right or their rights in the Licensed Information or Know-How licensed hereunder to any Third Party other than in connection with a permitted assignment of this Agreement.
(c)    Any attempted assignment in contravention of this Section 11 is void and constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Any new permitted assignee shall assume all responsibilities under this Agreement and agree in writing to the non-assigning parties to be bound by this Agreement.
Section 12    Dispute Resolution
12.1    Mandatory Procedures. Before either Licensee or Licensors intend to file a lawsuit against the other(s) with respect to any matter in connection with this Agreement, except with regard to any payments made or due under this Agreement, it shall first comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 12, other than for injunctive relief to enforce the provisions of this Section 12.

In the case of Licensee, that representative is the Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel or individual of equivalent authority.
(b)    If such representatives fail to meet within the time period set forth in Section 12(a) or if either Licensee or Licensors subsequently determine that negotiations between the representatives are at an impasse, the party declaring that the negotiations are at an impasse shall give notice to the other parties stating with particularity the issues that remain in dispute.
(c)    Not more than [**] after the notice of issues, the Managing Director of the Penn Center for Innovation of Penn and UFRF’s designated representative (or Penn acting on behalf of both Licensors if UFRF has given its prior written consent for Penn to represent UFRF in the dispute resolution process) and the Chief Executive Officer of the Licensee shall meet and engage in good faith negotiations at a mutually convenient location to resolve the dispute.
12.2    Failure to Resolve Dispute. If (a) any issue is not resolved within [**] after the first meeting pursuant to Section 12.1(c) or (b) there is a dispute regarding payments made or due under this Agreement, either Licensee or Licensors may file appropriate administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to the issue in dispute.

Section 13    Indemnification; Liability; Insurance
13.1    Indemnity.
(a)    Licensee and Sublicensee(s) shall, at all times during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, indemnify, defend and hold Penn, the University of Pennsylvania, UFRF, the Florida Board of Governors, the University of Florida Board of Trustees, the University of Florida and each of their directors, trustees, officers, employees, and agents, the inventors of the Patent Rights, and the creators of the Licensed Information, regardless of whether the inventors are employed by the University of Florida or the University of Pennsylvania at the time of the claim (each individually, an “Indemnitee” and collectively, the “Indemnitees”), harmless against any and all claims and liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from a Third Party claim (or resulting from UFRF’s or Penn’s enforcing this indemnification clause against Licensee or a Sublicensee with respect to such a Third Party claim), arising out of (i) death of or injury to any person or persons or out of any damage to property, including product liability claims, or any other claim, proceeding, demand, expense or liability resulting from the development, production, manufacture, sale, use, consumption, marketing, or advertisement of Licensed Products by Licensee or any Sublicensee(s) or arising from (ii) any exercise of a right or the performance of any obligation of Licensee or any Sublicensee(s) under this Agreement, (iii) any enforcement action or suit brought by Licensee or a Sublicensee against a Third Party for infringement of Patent Rights and (iv) any claim by a Third Party that the practice of the Patent Rights or the design, composition, manufacture, use, sale, or other disposition of any Licensed Product infringes or violates any patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, or other intellectual

property right of such Third Party; provided that a Sublicensee’s obligations pursuant to this Section 13.1 shall only apply with respect to actions or omissions of such Sublicensee.
(b)    Licensee’s and any Sublicensee’s obligations under Section 13.1(a) are conditioned upon the applicable Indemnitee (i) providing written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim, demand or action arising out of the indemnified activities within [**] after the Indemnitee has knowledge of such claim, demand or action; (ii) permitting the indemnifying party to assume full responsibility to investigate, prepare for and defend against any such claim or demand; and (iii) assisting the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party’s expense, in the investigation of, preparation of and defense of any such claim or demand; provided that, if the Indemnitee fails to notify the indemnifying party without undue delay pursuant to the foregoing clause, the indemnifying party shall only be relieved of its indemnification obligation to the extent it is prejudiced by such failure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnitee, such suit or claim involves an issue or matter which could have a materially adverse effect on the business, operations or assets of the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee may waive its rights under Section 13.1(a) and control the defense or settlement thereof. The indemnifying party may compromise or settle any indemnified claim or demand without the applicable Indemnitee’s prior written consent, provided that such compromise or settlement includes (i) an unconditional and complete release of the applicable Indemnitee from any and all liability in respect of such claim or demand (other than any financial liability assumed by the indemnifying party), (ii) does not commit any Indemnitee to take, or forbear to take, any action, and (iii) does not grant any rights under the Patent Rights or Licensed Information except for Sublicenses permitted under Section 2.4. Notwithstanding the above, the Licensors at all times reserve the right to retain counsel of their own to defend the interests of UFRF and Penn, the Florida Board of Governors, the University of Florida Board of Trustees, the University of Florida, the University of Pennsylvania and the inventor(s); provided that any such counsel shall be at the applicable Licensor’s expense unless an actual conflict of interest between the indemnifying party and the applicable Indemnitee(s) exist, in which case, the indemnifying party shall be liable for reasonable attorneys’ fees of up to one law firm for each Licensor taken together with its associated Indemnitees.
(c)    Licensee’s and Sublicensee(s)’ obligations under this Section 13.1 shall not apply to the extent that the Third Party claim arises out of the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of UFRF or Penn, the Florida Board of Governors, the University of Florida Board of Trustees, the University of Florida, the University of Pennsylvania or inventor(s) employed by any of them, as determined by a court of law, in which case, as between the Licensors, the party to which the gross negligence or intentional misconduct is attributable (i.e., UFRF or Penn) is responsible for their own liability.
13.2    Limitation of Liability. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF LICENSEE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER LICENSEE NOR LICENSORS WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF SUCH DAMAGES.

13.3    Insurance. Licensee warrants that it now maintains and will continue to maintain and that it will procure that its Sublicensee(s) will maintain, liability insurance coverage (which, in the event that Licensee or a Sublicensee has a market capitalization of at least [**] Dollars ($[**]), may consist of self-insurance) appropriate to the risk involved in developing, producing, manufacturing, conducting clinical trials for, selling, marketing, using, leasing, consuming, or advertising Licensed Products (the “Required Insurance Coverage”). The Required Insurance Coverage shall list UFRF, Penn, the Florida Board of Governors, the University of Florida Board of Trustees, the University of Florida, the University of Pennsylvania, the inventors of the Patent Rights and the creators of the Licensed Information as additional insureds. Within [**] after the execution of this Agreement and thereafter annually between [**] of each year, Licensee will present evidence to Licensors that the Required Insurance Coverage is being maintained.

Section 14    Use of Names
Licensee and its Sublicensee(s) may not use the names or logos of Penn, the University of Pennsylvania, UFRF or the University of Florida, nor of any of the foregoing institution’s employees, agents, or affiliates, nor the name of any inventor of Patent Rights, Licensed Information or Know-How, nor any adaptation of those names, in any promotional, advertising or marketing materials or any other form of publicity, or to suggest any endorsement by these entities or individuals, without the prior written approval of the applicable party in each case.
Section 15    Miscellaneous
15.1    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, excluding application of any conflict of laws principles that would require application of the law of a jurisdiction outside of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
15.2    Independent Contractors. Licensee and Licensors are independent contractors and not joint venturers or partners.
15.3    Integration; Amendments. This Agreement constitutes the full understanding between the parties with reference to its subject matter, and no prior statements or agreements by the parties, whether oral or in writing, including the Option Agreement, may modify the terms of this Agreement. However, the Penn SRA and any confidentiality agreements entered into by or among the parties before the Effective Date relating to the subject matter hereof shall each survive in accordance with their terms.

(a)    Licensee acknowledges that it is subject to and agrees to abide by United States laws and regulations (including the Export Administration Act of 1979 and Arms Export Control Act) controlling the export of technical data, computer software, laboratory prototypes, biological material, and other commodities. The transfer of those items may require a license from the cognizant agency of the United States Government or written assurances by Licensee that it will not export items to certain foreign countries or persons without prior approval by that agency. Licensors neither represent that a license is or is not required nor represent that, if required, it will be issued.
(b)    Licensee shall obtain all necessary approvals from the United States Food & Drug Administration, Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Agriculture and any similar governmental authorities of foreign jurisdictions in which Licensee intends to make, use, or sell Licensed Products.
15.6    Force Majeure. Neither Licensee nor Licensors are responsible for default, delay, or failure to perform, if such default, delay or failure to perform is due to causes beyond the party’s reasonable control, including, but not limited to, strikes, lockouts, inactions of governmental authorities, war, fire, hurricane or other natural disaster, provided that the nonperforming party uses commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove those causes of nonperformance and continues performance under this Agreement with reasonable dispatch when the causes are removed. In the event of a default, delay or failure to perform described in this Section 15.6, any date or times by which Licensee or Licensors are scheduled to perform is extended automatically for a time equal to the time lost by reason of the excused default, delay or failure to perform.
15.7    Severability.    If any provision hereof should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any jurisdiction, the parties hereto shall substitute, by mutual consent, valid provisions for such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions which valid provisions in their economic effect are sufficiently similar to the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions that it can be reasonably assumed that the parties would have entered into this Agreement with such valid provisions. In case such valid provisions cannot be agreed upon, the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of one or several provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity of this Agreement as a whole, unless the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions are of such essential importance to this Agreement that it is to be reasonably assumed that the parties would not have entered into this Agreement without the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
15.8    No Other Rights to Licensor Intellectual Property. Except as expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as granting to Licensee any additional ownership interest, license, express or implied, or other right, in or to any technology or intellectual property of Licensors, including know-how, patents, patent applications, trade secrets, products, formulations, delivery devices and chemical or biological materials.

15.9    Compliance with Export Regulations. None of Licensee, its Affiliates, and Sublicensees shall export any technology licensed to it under this Agreement except in compliance with United States export laws and regulations.
15.10    Waiver. No provision of this Agreement shall be waived by any act, omission or knowledge of a party or its agents or employees except by an instrument in writing expressly waiving such provision and signed by a duly authorized officer of the waiving party.
15.11    Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are for convenience only, and shall be of no force or effect in construing or interpreting any of the provisions of this Agreement.
15.12    No Strict Construction; No Prior Drafts. The parties and their respective counsel have had an opportunity to fully negotiate this Agreement. If any ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly 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. No prior draft of this Agreement shall be used in the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.
15.13    Interpretation. Unless context otherwise clearly requires, whenever used in this Agreement: (a) the words “include” or “including” shall be construed as incorporating, also, “but not limited to” or “without limitation;” (b) the word “day” or “year” means a calendar day or year unless otherwise specified; (c) the word “notice” shall mean notice in writing (whether or not specifically stated) and shall include notices, consents, approvals and other written communications contemplated under this Agreement; (d) the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and derivative or similar words refer to this Agreement (including any Appendices); (e) the word “or” shall be construed as the inclusive meaning identified with the phrase “and/or;” (f) provisions that require that a party or the parties hereunder “agree,” “consent” or “approve” or the like shall require that such agreement, consent or approval be specific and in writing, whether by written agreement, letter or otherwise; (g) words of any gender include the other gender; (h) words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively; and (i) the word “law” (or “laws”) when used herein means any applicable, legally binding statute, ordinance, resolution, regulation, code, guideline, rule, order, decree, judgment, injunction, mandate or other legally binding requirement of a government entity, together with any then-current modification, amendment and re-enactment thereof, and any legislative provision substituted therefor.

18.4    During the term of this Agreement, neither the Penn Principal Investigators nor UF Principal Investigators will publicly disclose the [**] Products [**], and in such case, if Penn Principal Investigators or UF Principal Investigators wish to publish, Penn or UFRF, as applicable, will promptly notify Licensee of the applicable disclosure requirement and in any event prior to submission for publication.
