 and consultants to publish data potentially relating to Kineta’s trade secrets, although Kineta’s agreements may contain certain limited publication rights. For example, any academic institution that Kineta may collaborate with will likely expect to be granted rights to publish data arising out of such collaboration and any joint research and development programs may require Kineta to share trade secrets under the terms of its research and development or similar agreements. Despite Kineta’s efforts to protect its trade secrets, Kineta’s competitors may discover Kineta’s trade secrets, either through breach of Kineta’s agreements with third parties, independent development or publication of information by any of Kineta’s third-party collaborators. A competitor’s discovery of Kineta’s trade secrets would impair Kineta’s competitive position and have an adverse impact on Kineta’s business.

Kineta has already entered into collaborations with third parties for the research, development and commercialization of certain of the product candidates Kineta may develop. Kineta may form or seek additional collaborations or strategic alliances or enter into additional licensing arrangements in the future. If any of these collaborations, strategic alliances or additional licensing arrangements are not successful, Kineta may not be able to capitalize on the market potential of those product candidates.

Kineta has already entered into licenses and collaborations with third parties and may seek other third-party collaborators for the research, development and commercialization of Kineta’s current or future product candidates. The collaboration with drug discovery vendors and any other collaboration agreements Kineta enters into will likely limit Kineta’s control over the amount and timing of resources that its collaborators dedicate to the development or commercialization of any product candidates Kineta may seek to develop with them. Kineta’s ability to generate revenues from these arrangements will depend on Kineta’s collaborators’ abilities to successfully perform the functions assigned to them in these arrangements. Kineta cannot predict the success of any collaboration in which Kineta has entered or may enter.

Kineta may in the future form or seek strategic alliances, create joint ventures or collaborations or enter into additional licensing arrangements with third parties that Kineta believes will complement or augment its development and commercialization efforts with respect to Kineta’s product candidates and any future product candidates that Kineta may develop. Any of these relationships may require Kineta to incur non-recurring and other charges, increase Kineta’s near and long-term expenditures, issue securities that dilute Kineta’s existing stockholders or disrupt Kineta’s management and business.

In addition, Kineta faces significant competition in seeking appropriate strategic partners and the negotiation process for these sorts of transactions is time-consuming
