5.1Commercialization Activities. Licensee (itself or through its Affiliates and Sublicensees) shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to Commercialize a Product in the Field in the Territory throughout the Term.

5.2Supply of Compound and Product. Within [***] following the Effective Date, Licensor will ship to Licensee [***]. Licensee shall use the Compound provided pursuant to this Section 5.2 for the purposes of conducting pre-clinical studies and research of Products. Licensor will supply the aforementioned Compound to Licensee at no charge, except that Licensee shall pay the shipping and handling costs associated with the delivery thereof to its designated shipping location. In addition, upon request, Licensor shall work in good faith with Licensee to assist Licensee to obtain such quantity of the Compound and any Product as is required for the Registrational Clinical Studies to be conducted by Licensee in the Territory pursuant to the Development Plan and such quantity of the Compound and the Product as is requested by Licensee for the Commercialization of the Product in the Territory. The Parties acknowledge that such assistance may take the form of Licensor facilitating Licensee’s purchase of the Compound and/or Product directly from Licensor’s then-current supplier(s) of the Compound or such Product, as applicable, or Licensor supplying the relevant quantity of the Compound and/or Product directly to Licensee pursuant to the terms of separate, written supply agreement(s) to be negotiated by the Parties for such purpose. Licensor will also work to ensure that Licensee is able to purchase the aforementioned supplies of the Compound and/or Product for use in Clinical Trials and/or Commercialization, whether purchased directly from Licensor’s supplier(s) or from Licensor pursuant to the aforementioned supply agreement(s), at the same transfer price offered to Licensor by the relevant supplier in connection with Licensor’s own purchases of the Compound or the same Product from such entity plus a fee, equal to [***], payable to Licensor. Further, if and when Licensor enters into any written commercial supply agreement with a Third Party in regards to any finished Product for purposes of Licensor’s commercialization of such Product outside the Territory, at Licensee’s request, Licensor will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to require such Third Party supplier to afford Licensee the right to purchase its own requirements of such Product for Commercialization in the Territory directly from such Third Party (e.g., by submitting purchase orders for such Product directly to such Third Party, subject to the same terms and conditions contained in the written commercial supply agreement between Licensor and such Third Party).

5.3Unauthorized Use. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Licensee shall not sell or dispose the Compound or any Product outside the Territory nor sell or dispose the Compound or any Product to any Third Party within the Territory other than in connection with the exercise of the rights granted to it by Licensor in Article 2 or the performance of its obligations hereunder, without Licensor’s prior written consent. For clarity, the sale, distribution (through multiple tiers), transfer or disposition by or on behalf of Licensee or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees of any Product which is intended for the treatment of any Therapeutic Indication within the Field of Use to Third Parties located in the Territory shall be considered an exercise of the rights granted to it under Article 2 and thus will not require the prior written consent of Licensor. Licensee shall not promote, market, offer for sale, sell and distribute the Compound or any Product to any Person outside the Territory or to any Person within the Territory that Licensee knows is reasonably likely to promote, market, offer for sale, sell or distribute the Compound or Product outside the Territory or assist any Person to do so.

5.4Site Visit; Audit. Upon reasonable prior written notice, Licensee shall permit Licensor to visit or audit the site(s) of Licensee and any of its Affiliates, Sublicensees or subcontractors (including any independent contractors engaged by Licensee for the Manufacture of the Product) at which Manufacturing of the Product has been or is being conducted. Any such audit shall be conducted (a) at reasonable frequency, and not more often than [***], (b) at Licensor’s expense, (c) during the regular business hours of the site being audited, (d) in a manner that does not unduly disrupt the normal business operations of the audited site, and (e) for the sole purpose of verifying compliance by Licensee (and/or its designated sub-contractor, as applicable) with Applicable Laws in connection with the Manufacturing of Products. During such visits or audits, Licensor shall have the right to examine all data, documents and records related directly to the Manufacturing of the Product, and all such data, documents and records will be considered Licensee’s Confidential Information and will be treated by Licensor as such in accordance with Article 9. In addition, upon reasonable request and with reasonable frequency, Licensee will permit a representative of Licensor to accompany Licensee on audits it conducts of sites (e.g., hospitals) conducting Clinical Trials on any Product as part of any global Clinical Trial involving such Product; provided, however, that if Licensee is prohibited by Applicable Law or the rules of the applicable Clinical Trial site from allowing Licensor’s representative to accompany it during such audit, Licensee will provide Licensor with a copy of any written report summarizing the results of such audit which Licensee creates. All data, documents, records, information and materials which Licensor views, learns or receives in connection with any such audit or audit report will be considered Licensee’s Confidential Information and will be treated by Licensor as such in accordance with Article 9 and may only be used by Licensor if and to the extent necessary to file for Regulatory Approval of the audited Product outside of the Territory.

6.4Royalty Term. Royalties under Section 6.3 shall be payable on Net Sales on a Product-by-Product basis beginning upon the First Commercial Sale of each Product in the Territory until the expiration of the applicable Royalty Term (at which time sales of such Product in the Territory shall be excluded from all calculations of aggregate Net Sales hereunder).

6.5Third Party Licenses.

(a)If, following the Effective Date, it is necessary for Licensee to enter into an agreement with one or more Third Parties pursuant to which Licensee licenses one or more Patents (other than any license granted in settlement of any litigation as contemplated under Section 7.6) from such Third Parties in order to Exploit a Product in the Field in the Territory, Licensee will have the right (at its sole discretion) to negotiate and obtain a license under such Patents (each such Third Party license is referred to herein as a “Third Party License”). A Third Party License will be deemed “necessary” under this Section 6.5(a) if, in the absence of a license under such Third Party Patents, the Exploitation of the Compound in any Product would, in Licensee's good faith assessment, upon advice of counsel, infringe such Third Party Patents. Except as set forth in Section 6.5(b), or to the extent of any Claim for which Licensor provides indemnification under Section 12.2, or as the Parties may otherwise agree in writing, Licensee shall bear any payments associated with any royalties owed to any Third Party for such Third Party License (collectively, the “Third Party Royalties”).

(b)Licensee may credit up to [***] of the amount of any Third Party Royalties paid by Licensee under a Third Party License deemed “necessary” pursuant to Section 6.5(a) during any Calendar Quarter against the royalties payable to Licensor under Section 6.3 in respect of the same Calendar Quarter; provided, in no event will the royalties payable to Licensor for such Calendar Quarter be reduced by more than [***].

6.6Royalty Statement. Within [***] following the end of each Calendar Quarter, Licensee shall provide Licensor with a written report containing the following information for the Calendar Quarter, in such reasonable detail as will permit Licensor to calculate and confirm royalty payments hereunder: an accounting of the number of units and prices for the Products sold, by Product; the amount of gross sales (specified in U.S. dollars) of the Products in the Territory, by Product, including identification of any applicable exchange rate; an itemized

calculation of Net Sales in the Territory showing deductions provided for in the definition of “Net Sales”; the application of any other reductions or corrections made in accordance with this Article 6 (including any reductions under Section 6.3(a)(ii) or Section 6.3(b)(ii)); and calculation of the royalty payment due on such Net Sales, as adjusted. At the same time it provides the royalty statement, Licensee shall pay Licensor the corresponding amount for the applicable Calendar Quarter.

6.7Corrections. In the event that either Party determines that the calculation of Net Sales for a Calendar Quarter deviates from the amounts previously reported to Licensor for any reason (such as, on account of additional amounts collected or Product returns), Licensee and Licensor shall reasonably cooperate to reconcile any such deviations to the extent necessary under applicable legal or financial reporting requirements.

6.8Payment Terms. All payments due to Licensor hereunder shall be made in U.S. Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account designated by Licensor.

The auditor's report shall be disclosed simultaneously to Licensee and Licensor. Any amounts shown to be owed to Licensor but unpaid shall be paid within [***] from the accountant's report, plus interest (as set forth in Section 6.8) from the original due date. Any amounts shown to have been overpaid shall be refunded within [***] after the accountant's report.

Parties in the course of conducting any activities under this Agreement, together with all intellectual property rights therein (the “Joint Inventions”), without any consultation with or accounting to the other Party, except as set forth below in this Article 7 with respect to protection and enforcement of such Joint Inventions and except, with respect to Licensee, its obligation to pay royalties to Licensor pursuant to Article 6 for any Products covered by Valid Claims of any Joint Patent which is exclusively licensed to it under Section 2.1. Employees or agents of Licensor and Licensee that are named as inventors on Joint Patents shall assign their interest in such Patents to the corresponding Party.

7.2Disclosure of Inventions.

(a)Joint Inventions. Each Party shall promptly disclose to the other Party any invention disclosures, or other similar documents, submitted to it by its employees, agents or independent contractors describing inventions made during the Term that such Party believes are patentable Joint Inventions.

(b)Licensor Sole Inventions. Licensor shall inform Licensee of any Sole Invention discovered or generated during the Term by its employees, agents or independent contractors, and all Information relating to such inventions to the extent necessary for the use of such Invention in the Exploitation of any Product (including any Evogliptin Combination Product) in the Field and, to the extent patentable, for the preparation, filing and maintenance of any Patent with respect to such invention in accordance with Section 7.3. For avoidance of doubt, all Patents covering any such Sole Invention shall be deemed to be Licensor Patents, and all Information related to any such Sole Invention shall be deemed to be Licensor Know-How (and Licensor Data, if applicable), under this Agreement.

(c)Licensee Sole Inventions. Licensee shall inform Licensor of any Sole Invention discovered or generated by its employees, agents or independent contractors during the Term that (i) covers or claims any improvement to the Compound or any use of only the Compound in any Therapeutic Indication and that (ii) does not cover or claim the Compound (or any improvement thereto or use thereof) in combination with any other API (a “Licensee Compound Invention”). For avoidance of doubt, under this Agreement, Licensor obtains no right, title, license, option or other interest in or to any Licensee Sole Invention, except as expressly provided under Section 10.7.

7.3Prosecution of Patents.

(a)Joint Inventions. The Parties will confer with each other as to the desirability of filing Patent applications on, and/or taking such other steps as may be necessary to acquire and maintain Patent rights in the Joint Inventions, and the Parties shall share equally the expenses of any such filings and other steps and mutually agree upon an outside counsel firm to handle such filings. In the event one Party notifies the other Party in writing that it does not wish to: (i) file for a Patent on the Joint Invention; (ii) file or maintain any Patent application or Patent previously filed or issued outside of the Territory on any Joint Invention; or (iii) take such other steps as may be necessary to maintain Patent rights outside the Territory in the Joint Invention,

the other Party will have the right to do so at its own expense. At the request of the Party permitted under the prior sentence to file for a Patent, foreign file or maintain a Patent or Patent application outside of the Territory or take any such other steps outside the Territory with respect to the Joint Invention on its own, the Party not filing or maintaining such Patent applications or Patents or taking such other steps (such Party, the “Non-Participating Party”) shall assign its entire interest in such Patent or Patent application to the other Party, subject to retaining a non-exclusive, unrestricted, perpetual, irrevocable, paid-up, royalty-free license (with an unrestricted right to sublicense) under the Patents (including any patents which issue from such applications) to make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell and import any products using the Joint Inventions outside the Territory, all without further consent of the other Party and without accounting to the other Party. From and after the date that any such assignment occurs, the Patents or Patent applications assigned by the Non-Participating Party shall cease to be considered a Joint Patent for all purposes during the Term of this Agreement and the Agreement will be deemed to be automatically amended, without any further action required of the Parties, to reflect the change.

Licensee shall bear all expenses of preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of Licensor Patents in the Territory. Licensee shall provide Licensor a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on material communications from any patent authority regarding the Licensor Patents and drafts of any material filings or responses to be made to such patent authorities in advance of submitting such filings or responses. Licensee shall consider Licensor's comments regarding such communications and drafts in good faith. If Licensee determines in its sole discretion to abandon or not maintain any Licensor Patent(s) that is being prosecuted or maintained by Licensee in the Territory, then Licensee shall provide Licensor with written notice of such determination within a period of time reasonably necessary to allow Licensor to determine, in its sole discretion, its interest in such Licensor Patent(s) (which notice by Licensee shall be given no later than [***] prior to the final deadline for any pending action or response that may be due with respect to such Licensor's Patent(s) with the applicable patent authority) in the Territory. Thereafter, Licensor has the sole right and authority to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain the applicable Licensor Patents in the Territory, Licensor shall provide Licensee a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on material communications from any patent authority regarding such Licensor Patents and drafts of any material filings or responses to be made to such patent authorities in advance of submitting such filings or responses. Licensor shall consider Licensee's comments regarding such communications and drafts in good faith. Licensee shall reimburse Licensor its reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it during such period in the filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensor Patents, provided Licensee has agreed in advance to such filing generally and to such filing in the Territory.

CONFIDENTIAL

(ii)Licensee shall notify Licensor of its election to take any action under Section 7.5(b)(i) within [***] before any time limit set forth in an Applicable Law. In the event Licensee does not give such notice in a timely manner or notifies Licensor that it will not be taking action, Licensor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to commence a suit or take action to enforce the applicable Licensor Patent or Joint Patent against such Third Party, at its own expense. If one Party elects to bring suit or take action against the Product Infringement, then the other Party shall have the right, prior to commencement of the trial, suit or action, to join any such suit or action.

(iii)The other Party shall provide to the enforcing Party reasonable assistance in such enforcement, at the enforcing Party's request and expense, including joining such action as a party plaintiff if required by Applicable Law to pursue such action. The enforcing Party shall keep the other Party regularly informed of the status and progress of such enforcement efforts, and shall reasonably consider the other Party's comments on any such efforts.

(iv)The enforcing Party shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses arising from a suit or action against a Product Infringement; provided, the enforcing Party shall not be responsible for the other Party's internal expenses (e.g., FTEs) incurred as a result of the other Party's cooperation with the enforcement action as provided in Section 7.5(b)(iii). The Party not bringing an action with respect to Product Infringement in the Territory under this Section 7.5(b) shall be entitled to separate representation in such matter by counsel of its own choice and at its own expense, but such Party shall at all times cooperate fully with the Party bringing such action.

(c)Settlement. Neither Party shall settle any claim, suit or action that it brought under this Section 7.5 with respect to any Licensor Patent or Joint Patent without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(e)Enforcement of Joint Inventions. Neither Party is obligated to the other to incur any costs for policing any Patent on any Joint Intellectual Property or for enforcing or defending any Patent covering any Joint Intellectual Property (or any part thereof) against any Third Party outside the Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party will notify the other Party in writing prior to commencing any enforcement action of intellectual property rights in Joint Inventions against any Third Party outside the Territory during the Term or inside the Territory after the Term. Any enforcement or defense of any intellectual property rights involving Joint Intellectual Property that is mutually undertaken by both Parties pursuant to this Section 7.5(e) requires separate agreement between the Parties. If one of the Parties provides the other Party written notice of its decision not to participate in an enforcement action of intellectual property rights in any Joint Intellectual Property and the other proceeds with such action, the proceeding Party has no obligation to account to the non-participating Party for any amounts collected.

7.6Infringement of Third Party Rights.

(a)Notice. If any Product used or sold by Licensee, or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, becomes the subject of a claim or assertion of infringement of a Third Party's Patent granted in the Territory, the Party first having notice of the claim or assertion shall promptly notify the other Party, the Parties shall agree on and enter into an “identity of interest agreement” wherein such Parties agree to their shared, mutual interest in the outcome of such potential dispute, and thereafter, the Parties shall promptly meet to consider the claim or assertion and the appropriate course of action.

(b)Defense. Licensee shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to defend any such Third Party claim or assertion of infringement described in Section 7.6(a) above, at Licensee's expense. If Licensee does not commence any action to defend such claim within [***] after it receives notice thereof (or within [***] after it should have given notice thereof to Licensor as required by Section 7.6(a)), then to the extent allowed by Applicable Law, Licensor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to control the defense of such claim by counsel of its choice, at Licensor's expense. The non-defending Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Party conducting the defense of the claim or assertion, including if required to conduct such defense, furnishing a power of attorney. If the defending Party recovers monetary damages from any such Third Party asserting such a claim of infringement as a result of counter claims brought by such defending Party based on any Licensor Patent or Joint Patent, or any royalties from a license agreement with such Third Party, such recovery shall be allocated first to the reimbursement of any expenses incurred by the defending Party in such litigation, action or license, and any remaining amounts shall be split as follows: (i) if such suit or action is defended by Licensee, such amounts shall be retained by Licensee and treated as Net Sales for purposes of the royalties due to Licensor under this Agreement; or (ii) if such suit or action was defended by Licensor, such amounts shall be retained by Licensor.

Each Party shall have the right to decline to defend or to tender defense of any such claim to the other Party upon reasonable notice, including if the other Party fails to agree to a settlement that such Party proposes.

7.7Patent Oppositions and Other Proceedings.

(a)Third-Party Patent Rights. If, during the Term, either Party desires to bring an opposition, action for declaratory judgment, nullity action, interference, declaration for non-infringement, reexamination or other attack upon the validity, title or enforceability of a Patent owned or controlled by a Third Party and having one or more claims that cover (or purport to cover) the Product, or the use, sale, offer for sale or importation of the Product (except insofar as such action is a counterclaim to or defense of, or accompanies a defense of, a Third Party's claim or assertion of infringement under Section 7.6, in which case the provisions of Section 7.6 shall govern), such Party shall so notify the other Party and the Parties shall promptly confer to determine whether to bring such action or the manner in which to settle such action. Licensee shall have the exclusive right, but not the obligation, to bring at its own expense and in its sole control such action in the Territory. If Licensee does not bring such an action in the Territory, within [***] of notification thereof pursuant to this Section 7.7(a) (or earlier, if required by the nature of the proceeding), then Licensor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring such action, at Licensor's sole expense. The Party not bringing an action under this Section 7.7(a) shall be entitled to separate representation in such proceeding by counsel of its own choice and at its own expense, and shall cooperate fully with the Party bringing such action.

(b)Parties' Patent Rights. If, during the Term, any Licensor Patent or Joint Patent becomes the subject of any proceeding commenced by a Third Party within the Territory in connection with an opposition, reexamination request, action for declaratory judgment, nullity action, interference or other attack upon the validity, title or enforceability thereof (except insofar as such action is a counterclaim to or defense of, or accompanies a defense of, an action for infringement against a Third Party under Section 7.5, in which case the provisions of Section 7.5 shall govern), then the Party responsible for filing, preparing, prosecuting and maintaining such Patent as set forth in Section 7.3 hereof, shall control such defense at its own expense. The controlling Party shall permit the non-controlling Party to participate in the proceeding to the extent permissible under Applicable Law, and to be represented by its own counsel in such proceeding, at the non-controlling Party's expense. If either Party decides that it does not wish to defend against such action, then the other Party shall have a backup right to assume defense of such Third-Party action at its own expense. Any awards or amounts received in defending any such Third-Party action shall be allocated between the Parties as provided in Section 7.5(d).

Licensor may terminate this entire Agreement at any time upon providing written notice to Licensee, if Licensee, or any of its Affiliates, or its or their Sublicensees (each, a “Challenging Party”), directly or indirectly (through assistance granted to a Third Party), commences any interference or opposition proceeding, challenges the validity or enforceability of, or opposes any extension of or the grant of a supplementary protection certificate with respect to (a “Patent Challenge”) any Licensor Patent or any other Patent owned or controlled by Licensor that claims or discloses the composition of matter or the method of making or using the Compound or any Product, anywhere in the Territory. However, Licensor's right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.4 shall not apply to in the case where the Challenging Party is (a) an Affiliate of Licensee that first becomes an Affiliate of Licensee after the Effective Date of this Agreement in connection with a merger or acquisition event or (b) a Sublicensee, and where such Affiliate or Sublicensee was undertaking activities in connection with a Patent Challenge prior to such merger or acquisition event or the grant of such sublicense.

10.5Termination for Insolvency.

(a)Either Party may terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon providing written notice to the other Party on or after the time that such other Party makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, files an insolvency petition in bankruptcy, petitions for or acquiesces in the appointment of any receiver, trustee or similar officer to liquidate or conserve its business or any substantial part of its assets, commences under the laws of any jurisdiction any proceeding involving its insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, adjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation or any other similar proceeding for the release of financially distressed debtors, or becomes a party to any proceeding or action of the type described above, and such proceeding or action remains un-dismissed or un-stayed for a period of more than [***].

(b)All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of the applicable bankruptcy laws in the Territory and other similar laws in any other jurisdiction (collectively, the “Bankruptcy Laws”), licenses of rights to “intellectual property” (as defined under Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Laws in the United States). If a case is commenced during the Term by or against a Party under Bankruptcy

CONFIDENTIAL

Laws then, unless and until this Agreement is rejected as provided pursuant to such Bankruptcy Laws, such Party (in any capacity, including debtor-in-possession) and its successors and assigns (including a trustee) shall perform all of the obligations in accordance with this Agreement. If a case is commenced during the Term by or against a Party under the Bankruptcy Laws, and if this Agreement is rejected as provided for under the Bankruptcy Laws and the non-bankrupt Party elects to retain its rights hereunder as provided for under the Bankruptcy Laws, then the Party subject to such case under the Bankruptcy Laws (in any capacity, including debtor-in-possession) and its successors and assigns (including a trustee) shall provide to the non-bankrupt Party copies of all Patents and Information necessary for the non-bankrupt Party to prosecute, maintain and enjoy its rights under the terms of this Agreement. All rights, powers and remedies of the non‑bankrupt Party as provided herein are in addition to and not in substitution for any and all other rights, powers and remedies now or hereafter existing at law or in equity (including the Bankruptcy Laws) in the event of the commencement of a case by or against a Party under the Bankruptcy Laws. In particular, it is the intention and understanding of the Parties to this Agreement that the rights granted to the Parties under this Section 10.5 are essential to the Parties' respective businesses and the Parties acknowledge that damages are not an adequate remedy.

10.6Effects of Termination. All of the following effects of termination are in addition to the other rights and remedies that may be available to either of the Parties under this Agreement and shall not be construed to limit any such rights or remedies. Upon the termination of this Agreement:

(a)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, all rights and licenses granted herein to Licensee shall terminate and Licensee shall cease any and all Development and Commercialization activities with respect to the Compound and Products;

(b)All payment obligations hereunder shall terminate, other than those that are accrued and unpaid as of the effective date of such termination;

(c)Licensor shall thereafter have all rights, on a fully paid-up and royalty-free basis, previously licensed to Licensee hereunder and the license granted to Licensor by Licensee under Section 2.2 shall remain in effect (except in the event of a termination of this Agreement by Licensee pursuant to Section 10.2 or Section 10.5, in which case such license shall immediately cease to be of any further force or effect upon the effective date of termination of this Agreement);

(d)Licensee shall in good faith coordinate the wind-down of Licensee's efforts under this Agreement, and Licensee, as soon as reasonably practical after the effective date of such termination, shall provide to Licensor, as applicable and to the extent permitted under any applicable Third Party contract (i) any Information, including copies of all data and results generated from any Clinical Trial, and the like developed by or for the benefit of Licensee relating to the Products (excluding any Evogliptin Combination Product), and (ii) other documents to the extent relating to such Product that are necessary in the continued Development, Commercialization and Manufacture of any such Product (including material


Cenicriviroc	Execution Copy
CONFIDENTIAL

documents and agreements relating to the sourcing and Manufacture for sale, promotion, distribution, or use of such Product). Licensee shall cooperate with Licensor to provide a transfer of such material Information and documents. At Licensor's request, Licensee shall assign to Licensor any and all agreements to which Licensee (or its Affiliate) and a Third Party are parties, and that govern the Development, Commercialization and Manufacturing activities conducted in connection with the Products (excluding any Evogliptin Combination Product) prior to such termination, or if such assignment is not permitted under the relevant agreement: (A) grant to Licensor other rights to provide to Licensor the benefit of such non-assignable agreement, at Licensor's expense, to the extent permitted under the terms of such non-assignable agreement; or (B) to the extent not permitted under the terms of such non-assignable agreement, the Parties shall discuss in good faith an alternative solution to enable Licensor to receive, at Licensor's expense, the benefit of the terms of such non-assignable agreement. In addition to the actions contemplated in this Section 10.6(d), Licensee shall take such other actions and execute such other instruments, assignments and documents as may be necessary to effect the transfer of rights to the Product hereunder to Licensor;

(e)Subject to the payment of all amounts required under Section 10.6(b) above, Licensee shall have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of any inventory of Products on hand at the time of such termination or in the process of Manufacturing; provided, however, Licensee shall, at Licensor's election, either destroy or return to Licensor any Product that has not been sold or used within [***] following such termination;

(f)Licensee shall transfer and assign to Licensor any and all Regulatory Materials and Regulatory Approvals directly and solely related to any Product (excluding any Evogliptin Combination Product and any other Combination Product) in the Territory, including any Regulatory Materials previously assigned by Licensor to Licensee and Product INDs and, upon Licensor's request, shall make available to Licensor any other relevant information reasonably related to such Regulatory Materials and Regulatory Approvals;

(g)Licensor shall have the right to assume all prosecution, maintenance, and enforcement activities under Article 7 with respect to Licensor Patents in the Territory. Licensee shall cooperate with Licensor and provide Licensor with reasonable assistance and cooperation with the prosecution, maintenance, and enforcement activities with respect to the Licensor Patents; and

(h)The provisions in Section 2.3(c) shall apply in the case of a termination of this Agreement by Licensor pursuant to Sections 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 or 10.5.

10.7Licensee Compound Invention; Joint Invention. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, Licensee agrees to assign and does hereby assign to Licensor all of Licensee's rights, title and interests (including without limitation, Patent rights) in and to all Licensee Compound Inventions, if any, without representation or warranty of any kind. Licensee agrees to reasonably cooperate with Licensor in transferring tangible Information related to Licensee Compound Inventions to Licensor. Automatically upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, without any further action required by the Parties, each Party (the “Licensing Party”)

shall be deemed to grant to the other Party, and the other Party shall be deemed to accept, a non-exclusive, unrestricted, sublicenseable, perpetual, irrevocable, paid-up, royalty-free, worldwide license under the Licensing Party’s joint ownership rights in the Joint Inventions (including under any Patent rights claiming such Invention) to Exploit the Joint Inventions in all fields of use.

10.8Remedies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not relieve the Parties of any liability or obligation which accrued hereunder prior to the effective date of such termination or expiration, nor prejudice either Party's right to obtain performance of any obligation. Each Party shall be free, pursuant to Article 11, to seek, without restriction as to the number of times it may seek, damages, expenses and remedies that may be available to it under Applicable Law or in equity and shall be entitled to offset the amount of any damages and expenses obtained against the other Party in a final determination under Section 11.3, against any amounts otherwise due to such other Party under this Agreement.

10.9Survival. The following provisions shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement for the period of time specified therein (or, if no such period is specified, indefinitely): Sections 2.5, 6.11; 7.1, 7.3(a), 7.3(c) (but only with respect to any Joint Patents), 7.5(c) and 7.6; Article 8 (Representations and Warranties); Article 9 (Confidentiality); Article 10 (Term and Termination); Article 11 (Dispute Resolution); Article 12 (Indemnification); and Article 13 (Miscellaneous).

Article 11 – Dispute Resolution

11.1Exclusive Dispute Resolution Mechanism.

11.2Resolution by Executive Officers. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11.2, in the event of any Dispute, the Parties shall first attempt in good faith to resolve such Dispute by negotiation and consultation between themselves. In the event that such Dispute is not resolved on an informal basis within [***] after receipt of written notice of such Dispute by a Party, the Parties shall refer the Dispute to their respective senior executive officers (or his/her delegate) for attempted resolution by good faith negotiation. In the event the Dispute is not resolved by the Parties’ senior executive officers (or his/her delegate) within [***] after the matter has been referred to them, then each Party may, in its sole discretion, seek resolution of such Dispute in accordance with Section 11.3.

11.3Arbitration. Any unresolved Dispute which was subject to Section 11.2, shall be finally settled and resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC Rules”), as further agreed by the Parties as follows: the place of arbitration shall be New York, New York, USA and all proceedings, evidence and


Cenicriviroc	Execution Copy
CONFIDENTIAL

communications shall be in English. The arbitral tribunal shall consist of three (3) arbitrators acceptable to the Parties who shall be fluent in English. In such a case, each Party shall select one (1) arbitrator within [***] after giving or receiving the demand for arbitration. Such arbitrators shall be freely selected by each Party, and the Parties shall not be limited in their selection to any prescribed list. The third arbitrator shall be an independent individual with appropriate subject matter expertise and not less than fifteen (15) years of relevant experience jointly appointed by the two (2) arbitrators within [***] after both arbitrators have been selected, or, failing agreement, as provided in the ICC Rules. The governing law shall be as set forth in Section 13.10 without regard to principles of conflicts of law, excluding the Vienna Convention (1980) on the International Sale of Goods and any choice of law rules which may direct the application of the laws of another state. The arbitration shall be completed within [***] after the third arbitrator is selected. The arbitration decision and award shall be in writing and comply with all terms and conditions in this Agreement, and shall be final and binding upon all Parties without right to appeal, and all Parties agree to be bound by the terms of the decision and award, if any, and to act accordingly. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and any award rendered pursuant hereto shall be governed by the UN Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. Each Party shall bear its own costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, arbitrator’s fees and an equal share of the third arbitrator’s fees and any administrative fees of arbitration regardless of the outcome of such arbitration.

11.4Preliminary Injunctions. Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, a Party may seek a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction in order to prevent immediate and irreparable injury, loss, or damage on a provisional basis, pending the decision of the arbitrator(s) on the ultimate merits of any Dispute.

11.5Confidentiality. Any and all activities conducted under Article 11, including any and all proceedings and decisions under Section 11.3, shall be deemed Confidential Information of each of the Parties, and shall be subject to Article 9.

11.6WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL. IN CONNECTION WITH THE PARTIES' RIGHTS UNDER SECTION 11.3, EACH PARTY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS IT CONTEMPLATES.

Article 12 – Indemnification

12.1Indemnification by Licensee. Licensee hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Licensor and its Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (each, a “Licensor Indemnitee”) from and against any and all claims, suits, actions, demands, liabilities, expenses and/or loss, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys' fees (collectively, the “Losses”), to which any Licensor Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding by any Third Party (each, a “Claim”) to the extent such Losses arise directly or indirectly out of: (a) the practice by Licensee or its Affiliate of any license granted to it under Article 2; (b) the use, handling, storage, sale or other disposition of the Compound or Products by Licensee, or its Affiliate or Sublicensee, including any use of the Compound or Products for Development, Manufacture and Commercialization; (c) the breach by Licensee of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Licensee in this Agreement; (d) the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct (including to the extent such negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct gives rise to Product Liabilities under any legal theory) of Licensee, or its Affiliate or Sublicensee, or any officer, director, employee, agent or representative thereof; except, with respect to each of subsections (a) through (d) above, to the extent such Losses arise directly or indirectly from (i) the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Licensor Indemnitee, (ii) the direct supply by Licensor (pursuant to the supply agreement(s), if any, between the Parties contemplated in Section 5.2) of the Compound or Product giving rise to the Claim or (iii) the breach by Licensor of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Licensor in this Agreement.

12.2Indemnification by Licensor. Licensor hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Licensee and its Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (each, an “Licensee Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Losses to which any Licensee Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any Claim to the extent such Losses arise directly or indirectly out of: (a) the breach by Licensor of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Licensor in this Agreement; or (b) the negligence or willful misconduct of Licensor or any of its Affiliates or other licensees, or any officer, director, employee, agent or representative thereof; except, with respect to each of subsections (a) and (b) above, to the extent such Losses arise directly or indirectly from the (i) negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Licensee Indemnitee or (ii) the breach by Licensee of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Licensee in this Agreement.

12.3Indemnification Procedures.

(a)Notice. Promptly after any Indemnitee receives notice of a pending or threatened Claim, such Indemnitee shall give written notice of the Claim to the Party from whom the Indemnitee is entitled to receive indemnification pursuant to Sections 12.1 or 12.2, as applicable (the “Indemnifying Party”). However, an Indemnitee's delay in providing or failure to provide such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except to the extent it can demonstrate prejudice due to the delay or lack of notice.

(b)Defense. Upon receipt of notice under Section 12.3(a) from the Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party shall have the duty to either compromise or defend, at its own expense and


Cenicriviroc	Execution Copy
CONFIDENTIAL

by counsel (reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee), such Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly (and in any event not more than [***] after receipt of the Indemnitee's original notice) notify the Indemnitee in writing that it acknowledges its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee with respect to the Claim pursuant to this Article 12 and of its intention either to compromise or defend such Claim. Once the Indemnifying Party gives such notice to the Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party is not liable to the Indemnitee for the fees of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such defense, other than the Indemnitee's reasonable expenses of investigation and cooperation. However, the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to control the defense of a Claim at its own expense.

(c)Cooperation. The Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party and its legal representatives in the investigation and defense of any Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnitee informed on a reasonable and timely basis as to the status of such Claim (to the extent the Indemnitee is not participating in the defense of such Claim) and conduct the defense of such Claim in a prudent manner.

(d)Settlement. If an Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Claim, no compromise or settlement of such Claim may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnitee's written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless: (i) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law or any violation of the rights of any person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnitee; (ii) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party; and (iii) the Indemnitee's rights under this Agreement are not adversely affected. If the Indemnifying Party fails to assume defense of a Claim within a reasonable time, the Indemnitee may settle such Claim on such terms as it deems appropriate with the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee for such settlement as provided in this Article 12.

12.4Limitation of Liability. EXCEPT FOR A PARTY'S OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 12, AND ANY BREACH OF ARTICLE 9 (CONFIDENTIALITY), IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY (OR THE OTHER PARTY'S AFFILIATES OR SUBLICENSEES) IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT FOR LOST REVENUE, LOST PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, DAMAGE TO GOODWILL, OR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR INDIRECT DAMAGES UNDER ANY THEORY, INCLUDING CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, OR STRICT LIABILITY, EVEN IF THAT PARTY HAS BEEN PLACED ON NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

13.5Waiver and Non-Exclusion of Remedies. Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition. The waiver by either Party hereto of any right hereunder or of the failure to perform or of a breach by the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by such other Party whether of a similar nature or otherwise.

13.7Relationship of the Parties. It is expressly agreed that Licensor, on the one hand, and Licensee, on the other hand, shall be independent contractors and that the relationship between the two Parties shall not constitute a partnership, joint venture or agency. Neither Licensor nor Licensee shall have the authority to make any statements, representations or commitments of any kind, or to take any action which shall be binding on the other, without the prior written consent of the other Party to do so. All persons employed by a Party shall be employees of that Party and not of the other Party and all expenses and obligations incurred by reason of such employment shall be for the account and expense of such Party.

13.9Construction.

EXAMPLE OF ROYALTY CALCULATIONS

1.Tobira Royalty - Effect of Combination Product Sales on Calculation of Net Sales for Purpose of Calculating Tobira Royalty

In order to determine the Net Sales of Products in the Territory for the purpose of calculating the Tobira Royalty, the Net Sales number must be adjusted to account for Combination Products. For each Product, this adjustment is accomplished by multiplying the Net Sales for that Product by the quotient of 1 divided by the number of APIs in the Product. The following table provides non-limiting examples of how the sales of Combination Products effects the Net Sales amount used to calculate the Tobira Royalty:

2.Takeda Royalty – Determining Royalty Rate for Takeda Royalty

The royalty rate used to determine the amount of the Takeda Royalty payable by Licensee to Licensor pursuant to 6.3(b) of the Agreement will be calculated by Licensor based on the global total annual net sales of products that contain the Compound and for which Licensor is obligated to pay royalties to Takeda under the Takeda License Agreement, including the Products (collectively, “Royalty Bearing CVC Products”). Licensor is required to pay Takeda a running royalty for global sales of Royalty Bearing CVC Products based on the following tiers:

[***] royalty on the portion of global net sales of the Royalty Bearing CVC Products up to and including [***]

CONFIDENTIAL

[***] royalty on the portion of global net sales of the Royalty Bearing CVC Products over [***];

[***] royalty on the portion of global net sales of the Royalty Bearing CVC Products over [***]; and

[***] royalty on the portion of global net sales of the Royalty Bearing CVC Products over [***]

At least [***] following the end of each Calendar Quarter during the Term of the Agreement, Licensor will estimate its global net sales of Royalty Bearing CVC Products for the then-current Calendar Year and its associated royalty payment obligation to Takeda. Based on this estimate, Licensor will calculate the royalty rate for Licensee’s Takeda Royalty for that Calendar Quarter. The royalty rate for the Takeda Royalty will be a blend of the rates set forth above that are applicable to Licensor’s estimate of global net sales of Royalty Bearing CVC Products for that Calendar Year. Licensee will then multiply that blended royalty rate by its Net Sales for Products for that Calendar Quarter in order to calculate the Takeda Royalty.

Example:

[***]


Global Annual Sales Tier	Licensor’s Royalty Rate for Royalty Payments to Takeda	Application to Estimated 2020 Global Net Sales of Royalty Bearing CVC Products	Licensor’s Estimated Royalty Payment Obligation to Takeda for 2020
[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]

To determine the blended royalty rate for Licensee’s Takeda Royalty, Licensor will divide its total estimated royalty payment obligation to Takeda for Calendar Year 2020 (in this example, [***] M) by the estimated Calendar Year 2020 global net sales of Royalty Bearing CVC Products (in this example[***]). The resulting blended royalty rate is [***]. Licensee would then apply this global blended rate to its Net Sales of the Products for Q1 of Calendar Year 2020 to calculate the Takeda Royalty due Licensor for Q1 of Calendar Year 2020.

At the end of each Calendar Quarter, Licensor will re-calculate the blended royalty rate for Licensee’s Takeda Royalty. Within [***] following the end of each Calendar Year, Licensor shall do a “true up” of Licensee’s Takeda Royalty for that Calendar Year to account for actual (as opposed to estimated) global net sales of Royalty Bearing CVC Products and will provide a


Cenicriviroc	Execution Copy
CONFIDENTIAL

written report summarizing the true-up calculation (each such report, an “Annual True-Up Report”). If the Annual True Up Report shows that Licensee’s Takeda Royalty payments over the course of the prior Calendar Year were lower than they should have been due to a discrepancy between Licensor’s estimated sales and actual sales of Royalty Bearing CVC Products, then Licensee shall pay the additional amount required to satisfy its actual Takeda Royalty obligations within [***] after Licensee’s receipt of such Annual True-Up Report. If the Annual True Up Report shows that Licensee’s Takeda Royalty payments over the course of the prior Calendar Year were higher than they should have been due to a discrepancy between Licensor’s estimated sales and actual sales of Royalty Bearing CVC Products, then Licensor shall apply the excess Takeda Royalty payments as a credit towards Licensee’s Takeda Royalty obligations for the following Calendar Year. If the overage occurs during the last Calendar Year (or portion thereof) in which the Agreement expires, Licensor shall reimburse Licensee for any such excess Takeda Royalty payments applicable to such Calendar Year within [***] after the end of such Calendar Year.

3.Takeda Royalty - Effect of Combination Product Sales on Net Sales for Purpose of Calculating Takeda Royalty

In order to determine the Net Sales of Combination Products in the Territory for the purpose of determining the Takeda Royalty, the Net Sales number associated with any Combination Product must be adjusted downward so as to only account for the portion of the Net Sales of the Combination Product that are attributable to the Compound. This downward adjustment is calculated using the following formula for each Combination Product: Net Sales in Territory x A/A+B where,

A = Average Price for the Monotherapy Product in Territory

B = Average Price of the products containing each of the other APIs as their sole therapeutically active ingredients in the Combination Product and/or the separate components co-packaged with the Product sold separately in the same formulation/dosage and having the same approved Therapeutic Indication.

As used in the above equation, “Average Price” means the average selling price weighted by [***] for the relevant product in that Calendar Quarter. For clarity, the denominator in the equation will include the Average Price in the Territory for each monotherapy product containing one of the APIs used in the Combination Product. If A or B cannot be determined because values for the Product or other product containing the other APIs other than the Compound sold alone are not available in the Territory, then the non-available A or B, as the case may be, shall be the average price weighted by the [***] in the Calendar Quarter for which royalties are being calculated hereunder at which the Product or the other APIs are sold alone in

the dosage included in the Combination Product in the United States. In the event that no Products or other APIs are sold alone in the Territory or in the United States, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith an allocation of the fair market value of the Product in the Combination Product.

Example:

If a Combination Product comprised of only Evogliptin and the Compound generated annual Net Sales in the Territory equal to [***], and the Average Price of the Evogliptin monotherapy was [***] and the Average Price of the Monotherapy Product was [***], then the adjusted Net Sales amount used to calculate the Takeda Royalty would be [***].

FORM OF PRESS RELEASE

Tobira Therapeutics and Dong-A ST Enter Into License Agreements for Evogliptin and Cenicriviroc

Tobira gains rights to second asset for NASH in North America, Europe & Australia

First combination study with cenicriviroc to begin late 2016

Conference Call Scheduled for today at 8:30 a.m. ET

South San Francisco, Calif., and Seoul, Republic of Korea, April 11, 2016—Tobira Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: TBRA) and Dong-A ST Co., Ltd. (170900: Korea SE), today announced that the companies have entered into two separate licensing agreements. Tobira has acquired exclusive rights to develop and market evogliptin in combination with cenicriviroc (CVC) and as a single agent in the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia for all therapeutic indications. Dong-A has received an exclusive license to develop and market CVC, as both a single agent and in combination with evogliptin in the Republic of Korea for all therapeutic indications. Both companies plan to initiate development programs for the combination of the two agents for the treatment of patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and also plan to collaborate on a global Phase 3 program for CVC single agent for NASH.

Under the terms of the agreement, Dong-A received an upfront cash payment of $1.5 million and is eligible to receive up to an additional $25 million in payments linked to the achievement of Phase 3 completion and approval milestones for the first indication and up to an additional $10 million for additional indications. Dong-A may receive up to an additional $35 million for commercial milestones. Tobira received an upfront cash payment of $0.5 million and is eligible to receive up to an additional $2.5 million in payments linked to the achievement of similar milestones per indication in the Republic of Korea. In addition, each party will receive tiered royalty payments based on net sales. Each company is responsible for its own development costs incurred within its respective territory.

“This relationship with Dong-A is an important step toward our goal of developing much needed combination therapies for the millions of patients suffering from NASH and to become the preferred partner for companies seeking to develop NASH therapies,” said Laurent Fischer, M.D., chief executive officer of Tobira. “While incretin therapies are already standard of care for diabetes, they also have the potential to impact the metabolic issues that play a role in NASH disease progression. Evogliptin is a potent DPP-4 inhibitor administered as a small 5mg once-daily tablet and has demonstrated compelling preclinical and clinical activity. It complements the anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects of cenicriviroc and has the potential to be combined in a fixed dose combination tablet.”

Evogliptin (Suganon®) was launched in the Republic of Korea in March of this year for blood glucose control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. There is a substantial amount of data suggesting that the incretin/GLP-1 pathways targeted by evogliptin are implicated in the progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and NASH. The combination of agents is intended to simultaneously address the metabolic pathogenesis of NASH and the inflammation and fibrosis that cause liver damage and often lead to cirrhosis, liver cancer or liver failure. The ultimate goal is to achieve greater improvement of liver-related outcomes.

“We are pleased to be working with Tobira to further the development of evogliptin in combination with CVC,” said Soo-Hyoung Kang, president & CEO of Dong-A ST Co., Ltd. “Their focus and experience in liver disease will allow us to explore the potential of our drugs to help patients suffering from non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. NASH is an epidemic that affects millions of people globally, including many people in South Korea, and we are excited to be combining two potentially best-in-class products to develop a much needed therapy for these patients.”

Tobira plans to conduct preclinical toxicology and pharmacokinetics studies with evogliptin required prior to initiating a Phase 1 study of the CVC-evogliptin combination in late 2016.

About Cenicriviroc (CVC) and Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)

CVC is an oral, once-daily, potent immunomodulator that blocks two chemokine receptors, CCR2 and CCR5, which are intricately involved in the inflammatory and fibrogenic pathways in NASH that cause liver damage and often lead to cirrhosis, liver cancer or liver failure. Tobira believes this novel approach will establish CVC as both a single-agent and as a cornerstone treatment in multi-therapy regimens for NASH, for which there is currently no approved drug.

CVC is currently being evaluated in Tobira’s fully enrolled global Phase 2b CENTAUR study (identifier NCT02217475) and the company expects to announce the study’s primary endpoint in the third quarter of 2016. CENTAUR is comparing CVC to placebo in 289 patients with NASH and liver fibrosis. CVC has been granted Fast Track status in patients with NASH and liver fibrosis, the patient population at highest risk of progression to cirrhosis. The CENTAUR study includes surrogate endpoints identified as suitable for registrational studies in findings of an FDA-AASLD workshop reported in Hepatology. To date, approximately 600 subjects have been dosed with CVC in Phase 1 and Phase 2b clinical studies, including 115 HIV infected subjects on treatment for up to 48 weeks.

NASH is an emerging health crisis impacting 3% to 5% of the U.S. population and 2% to 4% globally. It is the fastest growing cause of liver cancer and liver transplant in the U.S. due to the rise in obesity. Additionally, this population is estimated to be three to five times larger than the size of the population with hepatitis C in the U.S.

About Evogliptin

Evogliptin (Suganon®, evogliptin 5mg) is an orally bioavailable, selective dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4; CD26 antigen) inhibitor. DPP-4 inhibitors control glucose levels by preventing the breakdown of the incretin hormones glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which stimulate insulin secretion in response to the increased levels of glucose in the period following meals. In October 2015, evogliptin received its first global approval in the Republic of Korea for blood glucose control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Evogliptin is not currently approved by the FDA.
