under Section 4.3 hereof and Roche shall deliver to [***] (with a copy to MDRNA) a written statement thereof within [***] days following the end of each [***] (or any part thereof in the first or last [***] of this Agreement) for such [***]
(Royalty Statement). Each Royalty Statement shall set forth for each product, the amount of Net Sales during that [***].
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|5.2 | All amounts due under this Agreement shall be paid in U.S. dollars. When calculating the Adjusted Gross Sales for countries other than the United States of America, Roche shall
convert the amount of such sales in currencies other than Swiss Francs into Swiss Francs using for internal foreign currency translation Roches then current standard practices actually used on a consistent basis in preparing its audited
financial statements. Upon converting the amount of Adjusted Gross Sales into Swiss Francs, Roche shall convert into US Dollars (or other currency), using the average [***] rate (currently Reuters) for the applicable [***]. All payments shall be

borne by MDRNA or [***], as applicable. Roche shall promptly provide MDRNA or [***], as applicable, with a certificate or other documentary evidence to enable MDRNA to support a claim for a refund or a foreign tax credit with respect to any such tax
so withheld or deducted by Roche. The Parties and [***], if applicable, will reasonably cooperate in completing and filing any documents required under the provisions of any applicable tax treaty or under any other applicable law, in order to enable
Roche to make such payments to MDRNA or [***], as applicable, without any deduction or withholding.

| | notice, to the records of Roche and/or its Affiliates and/or its Sublicensees during reasonable business hours for the purpose of verifying the royalties
payable as provided in this Agreement for the [***] preceding years. This right may not be exercised more than [***]. The accountant shall disclose to [***] only information for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of the royalty report and the
royalty payments made according to this Agreement. The public accountant shall not interpret the Agreement. The audit report shall be shared by both parties at the same time. Any adjustment required by such audit shall be made within [***] days
after the determination by the accountants. If the adjustment payable to [***] is greater than [***] percent ([***]%) of the amount paid for the relevant period, then the cost to [***] for the audit shall be paid by Roche. The failure of [***] to
request verification of any royalty calculation within the period for which corresponding records must by maintained will be deemed to be acceptance of the royalty reporting for such period. Any disputes as to the determination or amount of Net
Sales shall be resolved between Roche and [***]; and MDRNA shall have no obligation or liability to Roche or [***] with respect to any such dispute.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|5.5 | Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 5, with respect to any royalties due (or claimed to be due) by Roche to [***] pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement,
the provisions of Sections 3.7 and 3.8 of the [***] License Agreement are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein, and Roche hereby agrees to be bound, for the benefit of [***] and MDRNA, by all of the provisions therein to the
same extent that MDRNA is bound thereby. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of Sections 3.7 and 3.8 of the [***] License Agreement, the provisions of Sections 3.7 and 3.8 of the
[***] License Agreement shall prevail.
