IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTY OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, PERFORMANCE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, COMMERCIAL UTILITY,
NON-INFRINGEMENT, VALIDITY OR TITLE. 
 12    PENN INDEMNIFICATION 

12.1    Indemnification. Company will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless each Penn Indemnified Party from and
against any and all Penn Liabilities with respect to an Indemnification Event. The term “Penn Indemnified Party” means each of Penn and its trustees, officers, faculty, students, employees, contractors, and agents. For clarity,
Cellscript is not a Penn Indemnified Party. The term “Penn Liabilities” means all damages, awards, deficiencies, settlement amounts, defaults, assessments, fines, dues, penalties, costs, fees, liabilities, obligations, taxes, liens,
losses, lost profits and expenses (including, but not limited to, court costs, interest and reasonable fees of attorneys, accountants and other experts) that are incurred by a Penn Indemnified Party or awarded or otherwise required to be paid to
Third Parties by a Penn Indemnified Party. The term “Indemnification Event” means any Claim against one or more Penn Indemnified Parties arising out of or resulting from: [***]. The term “Claim” in
this Article 12 means any charges, complaints, actions, suits, proceedings, hearings, investigations, claims or demands. 

12.2    Reimbursement of Costs. Company will pay directly all Penn Liabilities incurred for defense or negotiation
of any Claim or will reimburse Penn for all documented Penn Liabilities incident to the defense or negotiation of any Claim within [***] days after Company’s receipt of invoices for such fees, expenses and charges. 

12.3    Control of Litigation. Company controls any litigation or potential litigation involving the defense of any
Claim, including the selection of counsel, with input from Penn. Penn reserves the right to protect its interest in defending against any Claim by selecting its own counsel, with any attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses paid for by Company,
pursuant to Sections 12.1 and 12.2. 
 12.4    Other Provisions. Company will not settle or compromise any Claim
giving rise to Penn Liabilities in any manner that imposes any restrictions or obligations on Penn or grants any rights to the Patent Rights, Exhibit D Patents or the Licensed Products without Penn’s prior written consent. If Company fails or
declines to assume the defense of any Claim within [***] days after notice of the Claim, or fails to reimburse a Penn Indemnified Party for any Penn Liabilities pursuant to Sections 12.1 and 12.2 within the [***] day time period set forth in
Section 12.2, then Penn may assume the defense of such Claim for the account and at the risk of Company, and any Penn Liabilities related to such Claim will be conclusively deemed a liability of Company. The indemnification rights of the Penn
Indemnified Parties under this Article 12 are in addition to all other rights that a Penn Indemnified Party may have at law, in equity or otherwise. 

  
 25 













 13    OTHER INDEMNIFICATION 

13.1     Indemnification by Company. Company will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Cellscript and its affiliates,
and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (“Cellscript Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses including the reasonable fees of attorneys
(collectively “Losses”) arising out of or resulting from any and all Third Party suits, claims, actions, proceedings, payment obligations or demands (“Claims” in this Article 13) to the extent based upon:

 13.1.1     [***] 

13.1.2     [***] 

13.1.3     [***] 

except, in each case above, to the extent such Claim arose out of or resulted from or is attributable to any acts or omissions of Cellscript
or its directors, officers, employees and agents, or other circumstances for which Cellscript has an indemnity obligation pursuant to Section 13.2 below. 

13.2    Indemnification by Cellscript. Cellscript will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Company and its
affiliates, and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (“Company Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from any and all Claims to the extent based upon:

 13.2.1    [***] 

13.2.2    [***] 

except, in each case above, to the extent such Claim arose out of or resulted from or is attributable to any acts or omissions of Company or
its affiliates or Third Party sublicensees or contractors and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents or other circumstances for which Company has an indemnity obligation pursuant to Section 13.1 above. 

13.3    Procedure. If an Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification under Sections 13.1 or 13.2 seeks such
indemnification (wherein “Indemnified Party” in this Article 13 means a “Company Indemnified Party” and/or an “Cellscript Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party will: 

(i)    inform the indemnifying Party in writing of a Claim as soon as reasonably practicable after such Indemnified Party
receives notice of such Claim; 
 (ii)    permit the indemnifying Party to assume direction and control of the defense
of the Claim (including the sole right to settle such Claim at the sole discretion of the indemnifying Party, provided that (a) such settlement or compromise does not admit any fault or negligence on the part of the Indemnified Party, or
impose any obligation on, or otherwise materially adversely affect, the Indemnified Party or other Party and (b) the indemnifying Party first obtains the written consent of the Indemnified Party with respect to such settlement, which consent
will not be unreasonably withheld); 
 (iii)    cooperate as reasonably requested (at the expense of the indemnifying
Party) in the defense of the Claim; and 
 (iv)    undertake reasonable steps to mitigate any Losses with respect to the
Claim. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnifying Party will have no liability under Sections 13.1 or
13.2, as the case may be, for Claims settled or compromised by the Indemnified Party without the indemnifying Party’s prior written consent. 

14    INSURANCE 

14.1    Coverages. Company will procure and maintain insurance or self-insurance that covers the following minimum
liability amounts with respect to personal injury, bodily injury and property damage arising out of Company’s performance under this Agreement: (a) during the Term, comprehensive general liability, including broad form and contractual
liability, in a 

  
 26 













 
minimum amount of $[***] combined single limit per occurrence and in the aggregate; (b) prior to the commencement of clinical trials involving Licensed Products, clinical trials a minimum amount
of $[***] combined single limit per occurrence and in the aggregate; and (c) prior to the Sale of the first Licensed Product, product liability a minimum amount of $[***] combined single limit per occurrence and in the aggregate. Penn and
Cellscript may review periodically the adequacy of the minimum amounts of insurance or self-insurance for each liability coverage area required by this Section 14.1, and Penn and Cellscript reserve the right to request Company to adjust the
limits accordingly to the extent existing limits are not commercially reasonable. The required minimum amounts of insurance or self-insurance do not constitute a limitation on Company’s liability or indemnification obligations to Penn or
Cellscript under this Agreement. 
 15    ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS 

15.1    Independent Contractors. The Parties are independent contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement is
intended to create an agency, partnership or joint venture between the Parties. At no time will either Party make commitments or incur any charges or expenses for or on behalf of the other Party. 

15.2    No Discrimination. Company will not 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. 

15.3    Compliance with Laws. Company must comply with all prevailing laws, rules and regulations that apply to its
activities or obligations under this Agreement. For example, Company will comply with applicable United States export laws and regulations. The transfer of certain technical data and commodities may require a license from the applicable agency of
the United States government and/or written assurances by Company that Company will not export data or commodities to certain foreign countries without prior approval of the agency. Penn and Cellscript do not represent that no license is required,
or that, if required, the license will issue. 
 15.4    Modification, Waiver & Remedies.
This Agreement may only be modified by a written amendment that is executed by an authorized representative of each Party. Any waiver must be express and in writing. No waiver by either Party of a breach by the other Party will constitute a waiver
of any different or succeeding breach. Unless otherwise specified, all remedies are cumulative. 

15.5    Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned (by operation of law or otherwise) by either Party without
the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld); except that, either Party may assign this Agreement without such consent to an affiliate or to a Third Party successor that purchases greater than
fifty percent (>50%) of the outstanding stock or ownership interest or all or substantially all of such Party’s business or assets to which this Agreement relates, whether by sale of shares or ownership interest, merger, consolidation, sale
of assets or otherwise, provided that, prior to said transfer, the intended assignee agrees in writing to be legally bound by this Agreement in the place and stead of the assignor and provides the
non-assigning Party with a copy of said assignee’s written undertaking. Neither Party will grant a security interest in the Sublicense or this Agreement during the Term. Any prohibited assignment or
security interest in contravention of the foregoing will be null and void. The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties, and the
name of a Party appearing herein will be deemed to include the name of such Party’s successors and permitted assigns to the extent necessary to carry out the intent of this Section 15.5.

mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested. 
 15.7    Severability & Reformation. If
any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Such invalid or unenforceable provision will be
automatically revised to be a valid or enforceable provision that comes as close as permitted by law to the Parties’ original intent. 

15.8    Headings & Counterparts. The headings of the articles and sections included in this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and are not intended to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered by facsimile,
electronic transmission, or by mail delivery, will be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

15.9    Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, without giving effect to the conflict of law provisions of any jurisdiction. 
 15.10    Dispute
Resolution. If a dispute arises between the Parties concerning any right or duty under this Agreement, then the Parties will confer, as soon as practicable, in an attempt to resolve the dispute. If the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute
amicably, then the Parties will submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and venue in, the state and Federal courts located in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania with respect to all disputes arising under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, in the event of an actual or threatened breach of this Agreement, the aggrieved Party may seek provisional equitable relief (including restraining orders, specific performance or other injunctive relief) in any court of
competent jurisdiction to protect the interests of such Party. 
 15.11    Further Assurance. Each Party shall
duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts and things, including the filing of such assignments, agreements, documents and instruments, as may be
necessary or as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with this Agreement or to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes hereof, or to better assure and confirm unto such other Party its rights and remedies under this
Agreement. 
 15.12    Interpretation. Except where the context otherwise requires, wherever used, the singular
shall include the plural, the plural the singular, the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders and the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense (and/or). The captions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and
in no way define, describe, extend or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or the intent of any provision contained in this Agreement. The term “including” as used herein shall mean including, without limiting the generality of any


  
 28 













 
description preceding such term. The language of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language mutually chosen by the Parties and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against
either Party hereto. 
 15.13    Condition Precedent to Execution of this Agreement. The Parties understand and
agree that each Party’s willingness to enter into this Agreement is contingent upon the execution of both this Agreement and the mRNA RiboTherapeutics Sublicense Agreement ([***]), and, as such, the Parties’ willingness to enter into this

15.14    Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the mRNA RiboTherapeutics Sublicense Agreement set forth the
complete, final and only agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all other agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement
and the mRNA RiboTherapeutics Sublicense Agreement are separate and distinct agreements and there will be no “cross default” with respect to this Agreement and the mRNA RiboTherapeutics Sublicense Agreement.
