Each Party will be responsible for paying its own expenses in connection with participating in the meetings of the JRC. The JRC shall prepare written minutes of each meeting and a written record of all JRC decisions, whether made at a JRC meeting or otherwise. 3. DEVELOPMENT 3.1 Overview. SGX and UG agree that they will collaborate on development of Collaboration Products pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in a coordinated international program aimed at producing an International Registration Dossier and obtaining Registration of Collaboration Products in the UG Territory and SGX Territory. All such collaborative development efforts of the Parties, or either Party, shall be in accordance with the Development Plan for each Collaboration Product. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party agrees that neither Party may conduct Preclinical Development or Clinical Development on a Collaboration Product for sale or distribution, or license any Third Party to do so, except collaboratively with the other Party or as permitted by this Agreement. However, as discussed further in Article 6, it is agreed that, if one Party determines that it does not wish to proceed with such joint development of a particular Collaboration Product, the other Party shall be permitted to do so on its own pursuant to the terms of Article 6. 3.2 Joint Development Committee. On a Collaboration Product-by- Collaboration Product basis, once a Safety Assessment Candidate is selected by the JRC for progression to Preclinical Development, the Parties shall form a JDC for the development of such SAC, comprised of six (6) members, with three (3) members being appointed and replaced by SGX and three (3) members being appointed and replaced by UG. Additional representatives of each Party (for example members of the individual project teams or consultants) may attend JDC meetings at the election of each Party. The Parties may subsequently agree to change the size of each JDC, as appropriate to meet the needs of the Parties in managing the joint efforts under this Agreement. The JDC shall (a) prepare the Development Plan for the Preclinical Development of the SAC, and modify or amend it as appropriate, based on the results of the development efforts on such SAC, during the development process; (b) select one or more SACs for Clinical Development and prepare the Development Plan for such Clinical Development, (c) determine whether and when to commence Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 for each Collaboration Product; (d) oversee the Parties' activities under the Development Plan, including supervision of 8 CONFIDENTIAL regulatory activities and (e) perform such other duties and obligations as the Parties specifically delegate to it in writing by mutual written agreement of the Parties. 3.3 JDC Meetings. JDC meetings shall take place at such mutually convenient times and places as determined by the JDC, with the expectation that meetings will alternate between appropriate offices of each Party. Each Party will be responsible for paying its own expenses in connection with participating in JDC meetings. The JDC shall determine the frequency of its meetings and how such meetings will be conducted and recorded. 3.4 Decision-Making and Issue Resolution. All decisions of the JDC shall be unanimous by the members of such committee. If the JDC fails to reach unanimous agreement on an issue needing resolution, the matter shall be referred for good faith discussion and resolution by a senior executive officer designated by each Party for such purpose. 3.5 Joint Development. For each SAC selected by the JRC for joint development as a Collaboration Product hereunder by mutual written agreement, SGX and UG agree that they will collaborate to generate an International Registration Dossier, and will conduct, or have conducted, all Preclinical Development and Clinical Development on such Collaboration Product in accordance with the Preclinical and Clinical Development Plans developed by the JDC for such Collaboration Product. The Parties will work together to develop a common brand name for each Collaboration Product to be marketed under worldwide. Each Party agrees not to incur any expenses or costs in excess of the Development Budget (as defined below) within such Development Plan except as mutually agreed in writing by the Parties. The collaborative development program will follow the most expeditious path to the production of an International Registration Dossier and Registration of Collaboration Products in the UG Territory and SGX Territory, provided however it is understood that unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, all commercialization activities with respect to such Collaboration Product once Registration has been obtained, will be conducted by the Parties independently, in each Party's respective Territory for such Collaboration Product and that each Party will bear its own costs of such commercialization activities. On a Collaboration Product-by-Collaboration Product basis, each Party will be primarily responsible for regulatory activities in its applicable Territories after Registration in such Territory, comprising regulatory compliance, safety surveillance, adverse event reporting and all other necessary support services, however the Parties will keep each other informed of such activities and will work together in the conduct of such activities where necessary or useful. The Parties will mutually agree on (i) the commercialization strategy for countries outside of the Territories, including outlicensing as necessary; and (ii) the engagement of a Third Party(ies) to manufacture and supply bulk drug substance for Collaboration Product development, and Collaboration Products for commercialization purposes, in the Territories. 3.6 Access to Information. During the term of this Agreement each Party (the "Providing Party") will provide the other Party (the "Recipient") in English, for use in the Recipient's development and commercialization efforts relating to a Collaboration 9 CONFIDENTIAL Product, all Information that the Providing Party owns or Controls regarding such Collaboration Product (including, without limitation, Sublicensee Information), necessary or useful for making regulatory filings and seeking and maintaining Registration, for Collaboration Products in the Recipient's Territory for such Collaboration Product, as such Information becomes available. The Recipient will have a right of access, and the right to use and incorporate all Information provided by the Providing Party in regulatory filings for such Collaboration Products in the Recipient's Territory. The Parties will report and take other actions in relation to, adverse events with Collaboration Products, to each other in accordance with a reporting protocol in a form to be agreed by the JDC. Each Party will be entitled to receive copies of all correspondence with regulatory authorities and will be entitled to be present at all meetings with regulatory authorities in any Territory related to Collaboration Products. 3.7 Development Plans and Budgets. Promptly after the selection by the JRC of a SAC for development as a Collaboration Product by the Parties, the JDC shall prepare and provide to each Party for final approval a development plan for such SAC (the "Development Plan"). The Development Plan shall include all needed details regarding the Preclinical and Clinical Development, and other work to be undertaken to develop and produce the International Registration Dossier for such Collaboration Product, including an allocation of all such work as appropriate to each Party (or to selected Third Party contractors, as agreed), and shall establish a budget (the "Development Budget") for all costs and expenses to be incurred by each Party in conducting the work allocated to it under such Development Plan. The budget will be based on (i) an allocation of Full Time Equivalent (FTE) personnel of each Party working under the Development Plan, with each FTE costed at an annualized rate of U.S.$[...***...] (which rate will be increased on each anniversary of the Effective Date by [...***...]%); (ii) the actual extraordinary direct costs approved by the JDC, and (iii) the actual costs of work performed by Third Parties as approved by the JDC. Each Party shall diligently review the proposed Development Plan and shall either approve the plan or provide the JDC any requested changes and comments. If a Party provides such requested changes or comment to a proposed Development Plan, the JDC shall review the proposed changes within thirty (30) days, and as appropriate, thereafter prepare a revised draft of the Development Plan, accommodating such changes and comments, and resubmit such revised Development Plan for approval by the Parties as provided above. Once the Parties have agreed on the Development Plan proposed by the JDC, such Development Plan shall be effective and shall control and govern the Parties' development effort with respect to the applicable Product, subject to any subsequent amendments or modifications to such Development Plan as provided below. From time to time during the development of such Collaboration Product, the JDC shall review the Development Plan in light of the results of the development work and any other relevant Information and shall amend or modify the Development Plan as appropriate, provided that the JDC may not increase the applicable Development Budget without the written approval of each Party. At least sixty (60) days prior to January 1 of any year in which the Parties are developing a particular Collaboration Product hereunder, the JDC shall review the applicable Development Budget for such Collaboration Product and shall submit a revised and updated Development Budget for the coming calendar year to each of the Parties for approval as provided above. Upon such approval, the Development Budget shall be 10 ***CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED CONFIDENTIAL effective for the development of such Collaboration Product during such calendar year, subject further to amendment of the applicable Development Plan. 3.8 Costs of the Collaboration. All costs and expenses incurred or expended by a Party hereunder under the Research Budget and Development Budget ("Collaboration Costs") shall initially be borne by the Party incurring such costs and expenses, subject to creditability of Excess Expenses as provided in Section 4.3, provided however, on a Collaboration Product-by-Collaboration Product basis, the costs of any country specific regulatory requirement (outside of the International Registration Dossier and any Phase 4 studies required by a regulatory body in a Territory), will be borne by the Party whose Territory for such Collaboration Product includes such country. Each Party shall calculate and maintain records of all the Collaboration Costs incurred or expended by the Party during its performance of development on a Collaboration Product, in accordance with generally accepted accounting procedures consistently applied throughout such Party's organization and such other procedures to be agreed upon between the Parties. Commencing on the formation of the JDC, each Party shall report quarterly to the other on the Collaboration Costs it has incurred in each calendar quarter, on a Collaboration Product-by- Collaboration Product basis, and the purpose (referencing the activities within the applicable Development Plan) for which such costs were incurred or expended, with such reports to be submitted within sixty (60) days after the end of each of the first three (3) calendar quarters and ninety (90) days after the end of the calendar year. The Parties shall seek to resolve promptly and in good faith any questions or issues related to such accounting statements, and in any event within ninety (90) days following receipt. 3.9 Excess Expenses. (a) For each particular calendar year during which Collaboration Costs are incurred hereunder, and promptly following the First Commercial Sale of each Collaboration Product hereunder, each Party shall review the Collaboration Costs report submitted by the other Party and compare such submission to the applicable Research Budget and Development Budget. The Parties will then meet, if necessary, via designated senior officers from each Party with financial accounting responsibility, to discuss the reports and reach agreement on the total amount of Collaboration Costs that each Party may properly apply to the Collaboration activities hereunder. It is understood and agreed that a Party will not be entitled to obtain credit for any Collaboration Costs incurred by the Party in excess of the amount set forth in the applicable Research Budget or Development Budget for accomplishing the relevant task or objective unless approved by the JRC or JDC. If such officers cannot reach agreement promptly, the matter will be submitted to senior executive officers of each Party for prompt resolution, with the understanding that each Party will provide access to any information relating to the Collaboration activities undertaken by such Party, and the actual calculation of costs and expenses incurred therefor, with respect to Collaboration Products during such calendar year for which such Party seeks credit hereunder for the related Collaboration Costs . (b) UG and SGX will share the total amount of Collaboration Costs incurred by the Parties within the applicable Research Budget and Development Budget 11 CONFIDENTIAL for each Collaboration Product, up to and including the costs of Clinical Development, on a 50/50 basis. Any Collaboration Costs incurred by a Party in excess of [...***...]% of the total amount of Collaboration Costs incurred by both Parties, will be deemed Excess Expenses of such Party (the "First Party") and in the event that the Party which has not incurred Excess Expenses (the "Second Party") does not elect to pay the First Party the amount of the Excess Expenses in cash within [...***...] ([...***...]) months of the First Commercial Sale of a Collaboration Product, the First Party may credit such Excess Expenses in accordance with Section 4.3. 3.10 Audit Rights. Each Party shall have the right to have an independent accounting firm audit the other Party's relevant records to determine the accuracy of the Collaboration Costs reported by such other Party under Section 3.8 above. Such audit right shall be exercised under the terms of the audit provisions set forth in Section 4.11 below. 3.11 Diligence. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable diligent efforts to (i) develop and bring Safety Assessment Candidates nominated by the JRC for Preclinical Development, to the market as Collaboration Products in such Party's applicable Territory as soon as reasonably practicable, (ii) obtain such Registrations as may be necessary to market such Collaboration Products in such Territory, and (iii) after obtaining Registration for any such Collaboration Products, launch such Collaboration Products and promote and meet the market demand therefore. In connection with the above, each Party shall use efforts not less than those efforts made by similarly situated companies in the biotechnology industry with respect to comparable products of comparable commercial potential, stage of development and patent protection. 3.12 Lack of Diligence. In the event that either Party fails to use or continue to use diligent efforts to actively develop and commercialize a Collaboration Product in accordance with Section 3.11 above (the "First Party"), and the First Party fails to initiate diligent efforts within sixty (60) days of receipt of notice from the other Party (the "Second Party") of such failure, then the Second Party may terminate the First Party's rights under this Agreement with respect to such Collaboration Product and, in such event, the Second Party shall have the exclusive right to commercialize any such Collaboration Product in the First Party's Territory and the Second Party shall make payments to the First Party in accordance with Section 6.3. 3.13 Competing Products. During the period from the Effective Date to the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, each Party agrees not to, and to cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, develop and commercialize a Competing Product in any country in the other Party's Territory for the applicable Collaboration Product.

Optimizing [...***...] and [...***...] [...***...] DETERMINATION A [...***...] encompassing the [...***...] kinase [...***...] ([...***...]) has been identified that produces modest yields of [...***...]. Since different [...***...] of a kinase domain can show substantial differences in (i) [...***...], (ii) [...***...], (iii) [...***...], (iv) [...***...], and (v) [...***...], several new constructs will be examined in parallel. Various versions of the isolated kinase domain of [...***...], produced in [...***...], will be purified and submitted for [...***...] and [...***...] to determine the structure (see appendix, Figure 1). The following scheme will be followed: - [...***...] additional constructs of the [...***...] of [...***...] will be [...***...] and expressed using a [...***...] (see FIGURE 1).

[...***...] and, potentially, "[...***...]"[...***...] and/or [...***...], will be developed. alternative proteins of both [...***...] and [...***...] will be evaluated as well as various [...***...] of each in the assays. the jrc will determine which assay format(s), including which protein forms, to employ at the two sites and establish a work flow for testing collaboration compounds. - sgx-fast(tm) the fast(tm) method will be employed to identify potent lead compounds. two screening systems will be used to survey the sgx fast(tm) scaffold deck ([...***...] compounds) for [...***...] (which may be [...***...] binders), a [...***...] at [...***...] and a [...***...] with [...***...]. from these [...***...] the jrc will select [...***...] to pursue with fast(tm) chemistry. [...***...] will be elaborated by an [...***...] of [...***...], [...***...], [...***...] and [...***...].
