of such PMA Approval whether or not Genoptix will commercialize the Companion Diagnostic. Failure to provide such notice during such 5-business day period shall constitute a material breach by Genoptix of this Agreement. If (i) the JCDC (or
Ambit if the JCDC was disbanded) has approved or is deemed to have approved the commercialization of the Companion Diagnostic by Genoptix and (ii) such notice from Genoptix states that Genoptix will not commercialize the Companion Diagnostic,
then Ambit shall have the right to require transfer of the Companion Diagnostic under the terms set forth in Article 5. Nothing in this Section 4.1(a) shall be interpreted as relieving Genoptix of the obligation set forth in Section 4.1(b)
to commercialize the Companion Diagnostic under the circumstances described in such section. All references made in this Article 4 to commercialization of the Companion Diagnostic by Genoptix shall mean commercialization of the Companion Diagnostic
by Genoptix or its Affiliates or licensees (excluding Ambit or any of its Affiliates or licensees). 
 (b) If
(i) Genoptix receives PMA Approval for the Companion Diagnostic, (ii) the JCDC (or Ambit if the JCDC was disbanded) has approved or is deemed to have approved the commercialization of the Companion Diagnostic by Genoptix, and (iii)
[...***...] in accordance with Section 3.5, then Genoptix shall be obligated to commercialize the Companion Diagnostic for a period of [...***...] following the later of (x) the date of
such PMA Approval or (y) the date of NDA approval for AC220 (such period, the “Initial Commercialization Phase”); provided Genoptix shall be relieved of such obligation and the Initial Commercialization Phase shall immediately
end in the event [...***...], in which case Ambit shall have the right to require transfer of the Companion Diagnostic under the terms set forth in Article 5. In the event that the conditions described in the first
sentence of this Section 4.1(b) were satisfied, the Initial Commercialization Phase has not terminated [...***...] and Genoptix decides not to continue commercializing the Companion Diagnostic beyond the Initial
Commercialization Phase, Genoptix shall promptly communicate such decision in writing to Ambit and, [...***...], Genoptix shall continue to commercialize the Companion Diagnostic until the later of
[...***...] following the date of such notice or the end of the Initial Commercialization Phase, and Ambit shall have the right to require transfer of the Companion Diagnostic under the terms set forth in Article 5.

 4.3 Product
Recalls. If Genoptix commercializes the Companion Diagnostic and any Regulatory Authority (a) threatens or initiates any action to remove the Companion Diagnostic from the market or (b) requires Genoptix to distribute a “Dear
Doctor” letter or its equivalent regarding use of such Companion Diagnostic, then Genoptix shall notify Ambit of such event within three (3) business days (or sooner if required by applicable Laws) after Genoptix becomes aware of such
action, threat, or requirement (as applicable). Genoptix shall provide notice to and, to the extent possible but subject to applicable Laws, consult with Ambit prior to initiating a recall or withdrawal of the Companion Diagnostic. The Parties shall
discuss and attempt to agree whether to recall or withdraw the Companion Diagnostic; provided, however, the final decision as to whether to recall or withdraw the Companion Diagnostic commercialized by Genoptix and the procedures therefor shall be
made solely by Genoptix. Genoptix shall be responsible, at its sole expense, for conducting any recalls or taking such other necessary remedial action with respect to the Companion Diagnostic commercialized by Genoptix. 

4.4 Non-FDA Approved Tests. For clarification, nothing in this Agreement will limit or restrict Genoptix or its Affiliates or
licensees from developing and commercializing any test that uses the Assay, provided that: a) the test is not marketed by or on behalf of Genoptix or its Affiliates or licensees as an FDA-approved test to assist healthcare professionals in making
treatment decisions for their AML patients based on the presence or absence of the ITD mutation in the FLT3 sequence of such patient, and b) all promotional materials and datasheets regarding such test shall include a prominent statement that such
test is not an FDA-approved test. For the avoidance of doubt, Genoptix may perform any such test in the FDA-approved manner and may provide Third Parties with information relating to the manner in which such test is performed, including that such
test is performed in the FDA-approved manner; provided, however, that Genoptix and its Affiliates and licensees will not market or otherwise claim that any such test is an FDA-approved test. Development and commercialization by Genoptix or its
Affiliates or licensees of such a test in accordance with this Section 4.4 shall be without any obligation, including, without limitation, any payment obligation, to Ambit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, [...***...].

commercialize, or not to continue commercializing, the Companion Diagnostic after the PMA Approval has been obtained as provided in Section 4.1(a) or 4.1(b), as applicable. 

5.2 Technology Transfer. If Ambit provides timely written notice of its election to cause Genoptix to transfer the Companion
Diagnostic under Section 5.1 (the “Transfer Notice”), then subject to the Genoptix Retained Rights in Section 5.3, Genoptix shall promptly, at its own cost: 

(a) transfer to Ambit or a Designated Party, within sixty (60) days of the effective date of the Transfer Notice, all
documentation, technical information and other know-how within the Developed IP or the Genoptix Background IP that are necessary or reasonably useful for the continued development and commercialization of the Companion Diagnostic in the Field,
including without limitation all validation data and analysis thereof and all regulatory materials with respect to the Companion Diagnostic (including the PMA Approval if the approval has been obtained, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws);

 (b) provide technical support, following the above technology transfer, as reasonably requested by Ambit with respect
to the transfer of Companion Diagnostic; provided that (i) Ambit shall pay Genoptix for the number of hours exceeding twenty (20) that were spent on such technical support, at the FTE rates set forth in the most recent budget for Companion
Diagnostic Activities, and (ii) in no event shall Genoptix be obligated to spend more than fifty (50) hours in aggregate in connection with providing such technical support. 

(c) [...***...]; 
 (d) return or transfer to Ambit all the patient samples and genotyping data generated by Genoptix or provided by Ambit pursuant to Section 3.3(b); and 

(e) provide Ambit with a complete and accurate copy of each and every license in the Field granted by Genoptix to any Third Party
under the Developed IP prior to receipt by Genoptix of the Transfer Notice (each, a “Developed IP License”) and, upon Ambit’s written request, assign to Ambit all of Genoptix’s rights and obligations under each Developed IP
License identified in such written request.

 5.3 License.

 (a) License to Developed IP. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any license(s) granted by
Genoptix to any Third Party under the Developed IP prior to receipt by Genoptix of the Transfer Notice and in accordance with Section 5.3(c), Genoptix hereby grants to Ambit a fully paid up, royalty free, exclusive, worldwide license, with the
right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers, under the Developed IP, to (i) make, have made, use, import, offer for sale and sell the Companion Diagnostic solely for the specific purpose of selecting patients for treatment with a FLT3
inhibitor and/or monitoring a patient’s response or clinical status to a FLT3 inhibitor (the “Field”) and (ii) make, have made, use and import the Assay solely for the specific purpose of obtaining PMA Approval, which
license shall be effective only upon the Transfer Notice pursuant to Section 5.1. For clarity, Genoptix shall retain all rights under the Developed IP (1) to develop, make, have made, use, import, offer for sale and sell any test outside
the Field and (2) to develop, make, have made, use, import, offer for sale and sell any test in the Field, provided that such test is a laboratory developed test that is marketed as contemplated by Section 4.4 in all cases (collectively,
the “Genoptix Retained Rights”). 
 (b) License to Genoptix Background IP. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, Genoptix hereby grants to Ambit a non-exclusive, worldwide license, with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers, under the Genoptix Background IP, to (i) make, have made, use, import, offer for sale
and sell the Companion Diagnostic in the Field and (ii) make, have made, use and import the Assay solely for the specific purpose of obtaining PMA Approval, which license shall be effective only upon the Transfer Notice pursuant to
Section 5.1. The foregoing license is fully paid up and royalty-free, except that Ambit shall be responsible for paying any amounts that are owed by Genoptix to any Third Party licensor of Genoptix Background IP as a result of the practice of
the sublicense from Genoptix with respect to such Genoptix Background IP. Further, the license granted under this Section 5.3(b) with respect to any Genoptix Background IP licensed to Genoptix by any Third Party licensor shall be subject to all
of the applicable terms of the license agreement between Genoptix and such Third Party licensor. Genoptix will disclose in writing to Ambit, within thirty (30) days of the Transfer Notice, with respect to each Third Party licensor of Genoptix
Background IP, (i) the nature and scope of the Genoptix Background IP licensed to Genoptix by such Third Party licensor, and (ii) each and every amount that might be owed by Genoptix as a result of the practice of the sublicense from
Genoptix with respect to such Genoptix Background IP, and (iii) the terms of the license agreement between Genoptix and such Third Party licensor to which the sublicense to Ambit shall be subject. Ambit may elect at anytime, upon written notice
to Genoptix, to terminate its sublicense to any particular Genoptix Background IP and cease to have any payment obligations hereunder with respect to such Genoptix Background IP. “Genoptix Background IP” means any patents, patent
applications and know-how owned by or licensed to (but only to the extent Genoptix has the right to further sublicense) Genoptix that are not Developed IP and that are necessary for or used by Genoptix for the development or commercialization of the
Companion Diagnostic in the Field. 
 (c) Retained Rights. Except as expressly provided in this Section 5.3,
Genoptix hereby expressly reserves the right to practice, and to grant licenses under, the Developed IP and the Genoptix Background IP, provided that (i) any such license granted under 

  
 15 









 
the Developed IP before the Transfer Notice with respect to a Companion Diagnostic in the Field shall be assignable by Genoptix to Ambit on request by Ambit pursuant to Section 5.2(e),
(ii) Genoptix shall not grant any such license under the Developed IP after the Transfer Notice with respect to a Companion Diagnostic in the Field, and (iii) Genoptix shall not grant any license under the Genoptix Background IP with
respect to a Companion Diagnostic in the Field that conflicts with the license granted to Ambit in Section 5.3(b). Ambit shall not, and shall not grant any license to or otherwise authorize any sublicensee to, practice any of the
Developed IP or Genoptix Background IP except as expressly permitted in Section 5.3(a) and (b). 
 (d) Trademark
Licenses. Genoptix hereby grants to Ambit (i) a fully paid up, royalty-free, exclusive, worldwide license, with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers, under the Genoptix Marks, for use solely in connection with the Assay or
Companion Diagnostic in the Field, which license shall be effective only upon the Transfer Notice, and (ii) a fully paid up, royalty-free, exclusive, worldwide license, with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers, under the
Genoptix Marks, for use solely in referencing the Assay or Companion Diagnostic in the Field in connection with the commercialization of AC220. 
 5.4 License to Genoptix. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Ambit hereby grants to Genoptix, during the term of the Companion Diagnostic Activities, a non-exclusive, fully-paid
up license, without the right to sublicense, under intellectual property rights owned by or licensed to (but only to the extent Ambit has the right to further sublicense) Ambit that are necessary for performance of the Companion Diagnostic
Activities, solely for Genoptix to perform the Companion Diagnostic Activities. Ambit will work with Genoptix and Ambit’s strategic partner for AC220 with the goal of developing a mechanism for providing Genoptix with a license to use, solely
in connection with Genoptix’s commercialization of the Companion Diagnostic pursuant to this Agreement, one or more of the trademarks used by Ambit or its strategic partner in connection with the commercialization of AC220. 

ARTICLE 6 

FINANCIALS 
 6.1 Companion Diagnostic Expenses. 
 (a) Budget. The Parties have
agreed upon an initial Companion Diagnostic Activities budget of [...***...] for the estimated period of [...***...] beginning in January 2010; such budget is attached hereto as Exhibit
A. The JCDC shall be responsible for approving any modifications to such budget or any future budget with respect to Companion Diagnostic Activities. 
 (b) Obligation. Ambit shall be responsible for all Companion Diagnostic Expenses. For clarity, Ambit is not responsible for any expenses incurred by Genoptix in the course of performing Companion

 (c) Advance
Payment. Promptly following the Effective Date, Ambit shall make an advance payment of [...***...] to Genoptix, which shall be held as a retainer against the final reimbursement payment of the Companion Diagnostic
Expenses that Ambit is required to reimburse Genoptix for pursuant to Section 6.1(d). 
 (d) Reimbursement. Within
[...***...] of each calendar quarter for which reimbursement of Companion Diagnostic Expenses is due, Genoptix shall provide to Ambit an invoice that itemizes the actual Companion Diagnostic Expenses incurred by Genoptix
during such calendar quarter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Genoptix incurred approximately [...***...] of Companion Diagnostic Expenses from [...***...] and such Companion Diagnostic Expenses
shall be included in an invoice to be provided by Genoptix to Ambit promptly after the Effective Date. Ambit shall pay Genoptix the amount set forth in each invoice, less any amounts that Ambit disputes in good faith and less, with respect to the
final invoice, the advance payment of [...***...] made by Ambit pursuant to Section 6.1(c), within thirty (30) days after receipt of such invoice. The Parties agree to use good faith efforts to resolve any
disputes with respect to the reimbursement of Companion Diagnostic Expenses through the JCDC. 
 6.2 Repayment of Owed
Expenses. 
 (a) Overview. Provided that (i) Ambit has reimbursed Genoptix for the total amount of the Companion
Diagnostic Expenses incurred by Genoptix as approved by the JCDC, and (ii) the PMA for the Companion Diagnostic has been approved by the FDA, Genoptix shall pay Ambit [...***...] through the royalty payments set forth
in Section 6.2(b) and/or the BioPharm Services credits set forth in Section 6.2(c). For clarification, if (x) no royalty payments are due pursuant to Section 6.2(b) and (y) Genoptix and Ambit have not entered into any
agreement for Genoptix to provide BioPharm Services pursuant to Section 6.2(c), Genoptix shall have no obligation [...***...]. 
 (b) Royalty Payments. Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a), for each calendar year, Genoptix shall pay to Ambit a non-refundable, non-creditable royalty payment equal to the
product of multiplying the total Net Sales during such calendar year by the applicable royalty rate set forth below: 
  

			
	 Total Net Sales for Calendar Year
	  	Royalty Rate
	 Less than or equal to $[...***...]
	  	$[...***...]%
	 More than $[...***...] but not more than $[...***...]
	  	$[...***...]%
	 More than $[...***...] but not more than $[...***...]
	  	$[...***...]%
	 More than $[...***...]
	  	$[...***...]%


  

***Confidential Treatment Requested

 By way of example, if the total Net
Sales during a calendar year is $[...***...], the applicable royalty rate for such calendar year shall be [...***...]% and the royalty payment for such calendar year shall equal
to$[...***...]. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, [...***...]. 

All royalties payable to Ambit pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be paid in Dollars within [...***...] of the applicable
calendar year. Each payment of royalties due to Ambit shall be accompanied by a report showing the amount of gross sales of Companion Diagnostics during the applicable calendar year, a calculation of Net Sales, including details of the actual
deductions from gross amount invoiced as provided for in the definition of Net Sales, the aggregate amount of [...***...] incurred during such calendar year, and a calculation of the amount of royalty payment due for such
calendar year. 
 (c) Credits Towards BioPharm Services. At Genoptix’s option, a portion of the Owed Expenses may be
repaid in the form of credits toward BioPharm Services commissioned by Ambit, if so requested by Ambit. If Genoptix and Ambit enter into an agreement for Genoptix to provide BioPharm Services at any time after the PMA Approval, any amount of
un-repaid Owed Expenses, which amount shall be specified in such agreement, may be applied as a credit toward the costs of such BioPharm Services, which services may include, but are not limited to, conducting genotype testing of clinical samples
for genetic biomarkers (e.g., [...***...],[...***...],[...***...], etc.), histology, pathology, and other assays or laboratory services to support clinical trials or
other research and development activities at Ambit, provided however, that un-repaid Owed Expenses may not be used as a credit toward the costs of the work to support the development of the Companion Diagnostic and the work underway as of the
Effective Date or planned as of the Effective Date to support testing of samples from the AC220-002 and AC220-003 Clinical Trials. The Parties agree to negotiate, at a later date and in good faith, the terms for BioPharm Services to be provided to
Ambit, including the amount and timing of any credit that would apply to the provision of such BioPharm Services; [...***...]. 
 (d) Limit on Total Repayment. In the event that the cumulative annual royalty payments that are actually received by Ambit pursuant to Section 6.2(b), plus all credits towards BioPharm
Services commissioned that are actually taken, equal [...***...], then Genoptix shall not be required to make further payments to Ambit pursuant to this Section 6.2. 

6.3 Taxes and Withholding. All payments due from one Party to another under this Agreement shall be made without any deduction or
withholding for or on account of any tax 

  

***Confidential Treatment Requested

unless such deduction or withholding is required by applicable Laws to be assessed against the receiving Party. If the paying Party is so required to deduct or withhold, the paying Party shall
(a) promptly notify the receiving Party of such requirement, (b) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or
receiving notice that such amount has been assessed against the receiving Party, (c) promptly forward to the receiving Party an official receipt (or certified copy) or other documentation reasonably acceptable to the receiving Party evidencing
such payment to such authorities, and (d) otherwise reasonably cooperate with the receiving Party in connection with the receiving Party’s attempts to obtain favorable tax treatment and credit therefor (where appropriate) in accordance
with applicable Laws. 
 6.4 Late Payments. If a Party does not receive payment of any sum due to it on or before the due
date therefor, simple interest shall thereafter accrue on the sum due to such Party from the due date until the date of payment at the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal for such due date plus [...***...]
percentage points or the maximum rate allowable by applicable Laws, whichever is less. 
 6.5 Records and Audits.
Genoptix shall maintain complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to permit Ambit to confirm the accuracy of the amount to be reimbursed with respect to Companion Diagnostic Expenses under Section 6.1, and the Net Sales and royalty
payments due under Section 6.2(b). Upon reasonable prior notice, such records shall be open during regular business hours for a period of three (3) years from the creation of individual records for examination, and not more often than once
each calendar year, by an independent certified public accountant selected by Ambit and reasonably acceptable to Genoptix for the sole purpose of verifying for Ambit the accuracy of the financial reports or payments made under this Agreement. Any
such auditor shall not disclose Genoptix’s Confidential Information to Ambit, except to the extent such disclosure is necessary to verify the accuracy of the financial reports or payments made under this Agreement. Any amounts shown to be owed
but unpaid, or overpaid and in need of refund, shall be paid or refunded (as the case may be) within thirty (30) days after the auditor’s report, plus interest (as set forth in Section 6.4) from the original due date. Ambit shall bear
the full cost of such audit unless such audit reveals an overpayment to, or an underpayment by, Genoptix of more than [...***...] of the amount that was to be paid to, or paid by, Genoptix, in which case Genoptix shall
bear the cost of such audit. 
 6.6 Failure to Obtain PMA Approval. In the event the FDA does not approve the Companion
Diagnostic based on the PMA submission made by Genoptix, neither Party shall be obligated to make any further payments to the other Party pursuant to this Agreement, except for payment rights to which have accrued prior to such event. 

ARTICLE 7 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY 
 7.1 Ownership of Inventions. Inventorship of inventions conceived and reduced to practice in the course of performing the Companion Diagnostic Activities shall be determined in accordance with
United States patent laws. Genoptix shall own all inventions, whether patentable or not, discoveries, technology and information of any type invented or generated 

  

***Confidential Treatment Requested 


  
 19 









 
solely by employees or agents of Genoptix, or jointly by one or more employees or agents of Ambit and one or more employees or agents of Genoptix, in either case in the course of performing the
Companion Diagnostic Activities and all patent applications, patents, know-how and other intellectual property rights in or to any of the foregoing (such intellectual properties and all documentation with respect thereto, the “Developed
IP”). Ambit will ensure that all of its employees and agents who perform the Companion Diagnostic Activities are contractually obligated to assign any Developed IP to Ambit. Ambit hereby assigns to Genoptix all of Ambit’s right, title
and interest in and to all Developed IP. All licenses granted by Genoptix to Third Parties with respect to the Developed IP shall comply with Section 5.3(c). 
 7.2 Disclosure of Inventions. Each Party shall promptly disclose to the other all inventions conceived or reduced to practice in the course of performing the Companion Diagnostic Activities,
including all invention disclosures or other similar documents submitted to such Party by its employees or agents describing such inventions. Such Party shall also respond promptly to reasonable requests from the other Party for more information
relating to such inventions. 
 7.3 Prosecution of Patents. Except as set forth below, as between the Parties, Genoptix
shall have the sole right, in its discretion, to prepare, file, prosecute (including any interferences, reissue proceedings and reexaminations) and maintain all patent applications or patents within the Developed IP and shall bear all costs
associated therewith. Genoptix shall keep Ambit informed of progress with regard to the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of patent applications and patents within the Developed IP. If Genoptix determines in its sole discretion to
abandon, cease prosecution or not maintain any patent application or patent within the Developed IP, then Genoptix shall provide Ambit written notice of such determination at least thirty (30) days before any deadline for taking action to avoid
abandonment (or other loss of rights) and shall provide Ambit with the opportunity to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such patent application or patent. Each Party shall provide the other Party all reasonable assistance and cooperation in the
patent prosecution efforts provided above in this Section 7.3, including providing any necessary powers of attorney and executing any other required documents or instruments for such prosecution. 

7.4 Enforcement of Patents. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any actual, threatened or alleged infringement of
the Developed IP of which it becomes aware. As between the Parties, Genoptix shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to take appropriate action to obtain a discontinuance of such infringement, provided however, if Genoptix has granted to
Ambit the exclusive license to the Developed IP set forth in Section 5.3(a), then Ambit shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to take appropriate action to obtain a discontinuance of the infringement in the Field. The Party with
the first right to enforce the Developed IP shall have a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after its receipt or delivery of the notice of infringement to elect to so enforce the Developed IP. In the event the Party with the first right to
enforce does not so elect (or otherwise obtain a discontinuance of such infringement), it shall so notify the other Party in writing and the other Party shall have the right to take appropriate action to obtain a discontinuance of the infringement.
Each Party shall provide the enforcing Party reasonable assistance in such enforcement, at such enforcing Party’s request and expense, including joining such action as a party plaintiff if required by applicable Laws to pursue such action. The
enforcing Party shall keep the other Party regularly informed of 

  
 20 









 
the status and progress of such enforcement efforts, and shall reasonably consider the other Party’s comments on any such efforts. The enforcing Party shall be solely responsible for any
costs and expenses incurred by such Party in such enforcement action and shall retain all recoveries obtained as a result of such enforcement action, provided however, if the enforcing Party is Genoptix and to the extent that Genoptix has not
fulfilled any obligation it may have to repay the Owed Expenses under Section 6.2, any recovery retained by Genoptix shall be treated as Net Sales of the Companion Diagnostic by Genoptix subject to the terms of Section 6.2. 

7.5 Infringement of Third Party Rights. Each Party shall promptly notify the other in writing of any allegation by a Third Party
that the activity of either Party pursuant to this Agreement infringes or may infringe the intellectual property rights of such Third Party. Subject to Article 11, as applicable, Genoptix shall have the sole right to control any defense of any such
claim involving alleged infringement of Third Party rights by Genoptix’s activities at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice, and Ambit shall have the sole right to control any defense of any such claim involving alleged infringement
of Third Party rights by Ambit’s activities at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice. Subject to Article 11, as applicable, Neither Party shall have the right to settle any infringement action under this Section 7.5 in a manner
that diminishes the rights or interests of the other Party under this Agreement without the written consent of such other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; [...***...]. 

7.6 Trademarks. If Genoptix elects to or is obligated to commercialize the Companion Diagnostic after PMA Approval has been
obtained, Genoptix shall be responsible for the selection, registration, maintenance and defense of all trademarks for specific use in the commercialization of the Companion Diagnostic (the “Genoptix Marks”), as well as all expenses
associated therewith. For clarification, Genoptix Marks shall exclude any trademark of Genoptix (a) that was in use by Genoptix prior to the Effective Date or (b) that is or has been used in connection with the commercialization of any
Genoptix product other than the Companion Diagnostic. The Genoptix Marks are owned by Genoptix. All uses of the Genoptix Marks shall comply with all applicable Laws. Neither Party shall, without the other Party’s prior written consent, use any
trademarks or house marks of the other Party (including the other Party’s corporate name), or marks confusingly similar thereto, in connection with the commercialization of the Companion Diagnostic or AC220, except as may be expressly
authorized in this Agreement and except to the extent required to comply with applicable Laws.

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Party is required to make a disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information
pursuant to Sections 10.2(a), 10.2(b) or 10.2(c), it shall give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure and use reasonable efforts to secure confidential treatment of such information. In any event, the Parties agree to take
all reasonable actions to avoid disclosure of Confidential Information hereunder, including reasonable measures to ensure that no unauthorized disclosure is made by others to whom access to such information is granted. Each Party will promptly

material terms of this Agreement are the Confidential Information of both Parties, subject to the disclosure provisions set forth in Section 10.2 and this Section 10.3. 

(b) If either Party desires to make a public announcement concerning the material terms of this Agreement, such Party shall give
reasonable prior advance notice of the proposed text of such announcement to the other Party for its prior review and approval (except as otherwise provided herein), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. A Party commenting on such a
proposed press release shall provide its comments, if any, within five (5) business days after receiving the press release for review. Neither Party shall be required to seek the permission of the other Party to repeat any information regarding

part of the indemnifying Party; (b) the failure by the indemnifying Party to comply with applicable Laws in connection with the exercise of any of its rights or the performance of any of its obligations hereunder; and/or (c) any breach of
this Agreement by the indemnifying Party. The foregoing indemnification obligation shall not apply to Losses to the extent resulting from or arising out of: (i) the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of any of the Other
Party Indemnitees; (ii) the failure by the other Party to comply with applicable Laws; (iii) any breach of this Agreement by the other Party; (iv) any action or omission of any Genoptix Indemnitee if such Losses are to be indemnified
by Ambit pursuant to Section 11.2; and/or (v) any action or omission of any Ambit Indemnitee if such Losses are to be indemnified by Genoptix pursuant to Section 11.3. 

11.2 Additional Indemnification by Ambit. Ambit agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Genoptix and its Affiliates, and
their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Genoptix Indemnitees”) from and against all Losses they may suffer as the result of Third Party claims, demands, actions, suits or

obligation shall not apply to Losses to the extent resulting from or arising out of: (x) the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of any of the Genoptix Indemnitees; (y) the failure of Genoptix to comply with
applicable Laws [...***...]; and/or (z) any breach of this Agreement by Genoptix. If PMA Approval is obtained and Genoptix (itself or through its Affiliates or licensees) elects to commercialize the Companion
Diagnostic [...***...]. 
 11.3 Additional Indemnification by Genoptix. Genoptix agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Ambit and its Affiliates, and their directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ambit Indemnitees”) from and against all Losses they may suffer as the result
of Third Party claims, demands, actions, suits or judgments against them resulting from or arising out of [...***...]. The foregoing indemnification obligation shall not apply to Losses to the extent resulting from or
arising out of: (w) the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of any of the Ambit Indemnitees; (x) the failure by Ambit to comply with applicable Laws [...***...]; (y) any breach of this
Agreement by Ambit; and/or (z) any action or omission of any Genoptix Indemnitee if such Losses are to be indemnified by Ambit pursuant to Section 11.2. 
 11.4 General Conditions of Indemnification. Each Party’s indemnification obligation set forth in Section 11.1, 11.2 or 11.3 is conditioned upon the Other Party Indemnitee, Genoptix
Indemnitee or Ambit Indemnitee, as applicable (the “Indemnitee”): 
 (a) providing written notice to the
indemnifying Party of any claim, demand, action or suit for which indemnity is being sought within thirty (30) days after the Indemnitee has knowledge of such claim, demand or action; provided, however, that an Indemnitee’s delay in
providing such notice will not relieve the indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations if the Indemnitee can demonstrate that the indemnifying Party was not prejudiced due to the delay; 

(b) permitting the indemnifying Party to assume full responsibility and authority to investigate, prepare for and defend against
any such claim, demand, action or suit with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee after the indemnifying Party notifies the 

  

***Confidential Treatment Requested 


  
 26 









 
Indemnitee in writing that it acknowledges its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11.1, 11.2 or 11.3 and, 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, except as provided in Section 11.4(c); provided,
however, the Indemnitee will have the right to employ separate counsel and to control the defense of such claim, demand, action or suit at its own expense; 
 (c) once the indemnifying Party gives notice as provided in Section 11.4(b), assisting the indemnifying Party, at the indemnifying Party’s request and reasonable expense, in the
investigation of, preparation for and defense of any such claim or demand; and 
 (d) not compromising or settling such
claim, demand, action or suit without the indemnifying Party’s written consent; provided that, if the indemnifying Party has not given notice as provided in Section 11.4(b) and more than sixty (60) days have elapsed since the
indemnifying Party’s receipt of the Indemnitee’s original notice pursuant to Section 11.4(a), the Indemnitee may settle such claim, demand, action or suit on such terms as it deems appropriate with the consent of the indemnifying
Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnifying Party will be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee for such settlement as provided in this Article 11. 

If an indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a claim, demand, action or suit, no compromise or settlement of such claim, demand,
action or suit may be effected by the indemnifying Party without the Indemnitee’s written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld 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. 
 11.5 Separate Defense of Claims. In the
event that a Party that believes itself entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1, 11.2 or 11.3 provides timely notice pursuant to Section 11.4(a) but the Parties cannot agree as to the application of Section 11.1, 11.2 or
11.3 to any particular loss or claim, the Parties may conduct separate defenses of such claim, in which case such Party reserves the right to claim indemnity from the other in accordance with Section 11.1, 11.2 or 11.3, as applicable, upon
resolution of the underlying claim, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.4(b), permitting the indemnifying Party to assume full and authority to investigate, prepare for and defend against such claim, demand, action or suit. 

11.6 Insurance. During the Term and for a period of [...***...] years thereafter, each Party shall
secure and maintain in full force and effect insurance coverage for: (a) employer’s liability; (b) general liability; (c) contractual liability; (d) premises liability; and (e) professional indemnity in amounts
appropriate to the conduct of such Party’s business. Each Party also agrees that it shall maintain adequate medical malpractice and other insurance to cover its obligations hereunder, as well as workers’ compensation insurance in the
amount required by the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Party’s employees are located.

 ARTICLE 12

 TERM AND TERMINATION 
 12.1 Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Article 12, shall expire when the last payment obligation of either Party
under this Agreement is fulfilled (the “Term”). 
 12.2 Termination by Ambit. Ambit shall have the right
to terminate this Agreement: 
 (a) upon [...***...] prior written notice to Genoptix for any
reason, provided that Ambit shall, no later than the effective date of such termination, reimburse Genoptix for (i) all Companion Diagnostic Expenses actually incurred by Genoptix prior to Ambit’s termination notice and (ii) all
non-refundable Third Party expenses already committed prior to Ambit’s termination notice as authorized by the approved budget for Companion Diagnostic Activities for the 90-day period following Ambit’s termination notice; or 

(b) immediately upon written notice to Genoptix, if Genoptix or any individual, corporation, partnership, institution providing
services to Genoptix which directly or indirectly relate to Companion Diagnostic Activities (i) becomes debarred under 21 U.S.C. §335a or (ii) receives notice of action or threat of action with respect to its debarment during the
Term, provided that this Agreement shall terminate automatically without any further action or notice by either Party in the event that Genoptix becomes debarred. 
 12.3 Termination by Genoptix. Genoptix shall have the right to terminate this Agreement: 
 (a) upon [...***...] prior written notice to Ambit if Genoptix, in its sole discretion, believes that a [...***...] Genoptix or the Companion
Diagnostic, and Genoptix shall have no obligation to continue any research, development or commercialization activities with respect to the Companion Diagnostic following such written notice to Ambit; or 

(b) upon [...***...] prior written notice to Ambit if the total outstanding disputed amount with
respect to Companion Diagnostic Expenses at such time exceeds [...***...] unless the total outstanding disputed amount is finally resolved and settled before the end of such [...***...] period;
or 
 (c) upon written notice in the event Ambit or any of its Affiliates or sublicensees of Developed IP or Genoptix
Background IP contest, oppose or challenge, or assist any party in contesting, opposing or challenging, Genoptix’s ownership of, or the enforceability or validity of, any patent within the Developed IP or the Genoptix Background IP; provided,
however, any such termination of this Agreement based solely on such action by a sublicensee shall not be effective if Ambit terminates the sublicense granted under Developed IP or Genoptix Background IP to any such sublicensee within ten
(10) days of receipt of the written notice from Genoptix.

 12.4 Termination
for Material Breach. Either Party may terminate this Agreement if the other Party materially breaches this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the non-breaching Party,
specifying in detail the nature of the breach. 
 12.5 Effect of Termination; Survival. Expiration or termination of this
Agreement shall not affect the rights or obligations of the Parties under this Agreement that have accrued prior to the date of termination or expiration. Promptly following any expiration or termination of this Agreement, Genoptix shall return or
transfer to Ambit all the patient samples and genotyping data generated by Genoptix or provided by Ambit pursuant to Section 3.3(b). Upon the termination of this Agreement by Genoptix at any time prior to the PMA Approval under the conditions
set forth in Section 5.1(a) or by Ambit under the conditions set forth in Section 5.1(b), Ambit shall have the right under Section 5.1(a) or (b) to require Genoptix to transfer the Companion Diagnostic to Ambit or a Designated
Party under the terms set forth in Article 5, or upon expiration of this Agreement under circumstances where Ambit has or may in the future have the right under Section 5.1(c) to require Genoptix to transfer the Companion Diagnostic to Ambit or
a Designated Party under the terms set forth in Article 5, then Section 5.1 shall survive such termination or expiration until Ambit exercises such right and Section 5.2 shall survive such termination or expiration until completed, and
Sections 5.3, 12.1 and 12.4 of this Agreement shall not terminate, but shall remain in full force and effect, until all payment and other obligations of Ambit with respect to any Genoptix Background IP licensed to Genoptix by any Third Party
licensor and sublicensed to Ambit under Section 5.3 have been performed, at which time the Term of this Agreement shall expire as to Sections 12.1 and the licenses granted under Section 5.3 shall automatically become irrevocable and
perpetual and Section 5.3 shall continue to survive, subject to Genoptix’s continued right to terminate such licenses under Section 12.4 if Ambit materially breaches the scope of any such license. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary, the following provisions shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement: Sections 3.4 (with respect to maintenance and review of records), 8.5, 8.6, 12.2(a) and 12.5 and Articles 6 (with respect to payments accrued, or
Companion Diagnostic Expenses incurred, prior to termination or expiration of this Agreement, with respect to Net Sales made at any time and with respect to BioPharm Services performed at any time), 7 (except that Sections 7.3 and 7.4 shall
only survive if, and for so long, the licenses granted under Section 5.3 continue in effect as provided in this Section 12.5), 10, 11, 13 and 14. If this Agreement has expired (but not been earlier terminated) and, prior to such
expiration, licenses have been granted to Ambit under Section 5.3 and there are no payment or other obligations to any Third Party licensor of intellectual property included in the Genoptix Background IP with which Ambit must continue to
comply, then the licenses granted under Section 5.3 shall automatically become irrevocable and perpetual upon such expiration of this Agreement and Section 5.3 shall survive such expiration of this Agreement, subject to Genoptix’s
continued right to terminate such licenses under Section 12.4 if Ambit materially breaches the scope of any such license. 

ARTICLE 13 

DISPUTE RESOLUTION 
 13.1 Disputes. It is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of disputes arising under this Agreement in an expedient manner by mutual


  
 29 









 
cooperation and without resort to litigation. In the event of any disputes, controversies or differences which may arise between the Parties out of or in relation to or in connection with this
Agreement (other than disputes concerning matters within the scope of the JCDC’s authority, which disputes shall be resolved in accordance with Section 2.3), including, without limitation, any alleged failure to perform, or breach, of this
Agreement, or any issue relating to the interpretation or application of this Agreement (each, a “Dispute”), then upon the request of either Party by written notice, the Parties agree to meet and discuss in good faith a possible
resolution thereof, which good faith efforts shall include at least one in-person meeting between the chief executive officers of each Party. If the matter is not resolved within thirty (30) days following the written request for discussions,
either Party may then invoke the provisions of Section 13.2. For the avoidance of doubt, any disputes, controversies or differences concerning matters within the scope of the JCDC’s authority shall be resolved solely in accordance with
Section 2.3. 
 13.2 Arbitration. Any Dispute that is not resolved pursuant to Section 13.1, except for a
Dispute under Section 13.3, shall be settled by binding arbitration as follows: 
 (a) The place of arbitration
shall be San Diego, California. 
 (b) The arbitration shall be conducted by three (3) arbitrators with not less
than fifteen (15) years of relevant experience in the subject matter of the dispute, one selected by each of the Parties and the third mutually agreed upon by the arbitrators selected by the Parties. 

(c) The arbitration shall be made in accordance with the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS then in effect.

 (d) Judgment shall be made in writing and the award rendered by such arbitrators shall be binding on the Parties and
may be entered by any court or forum having jurisdiction. 
 (e) Either Party may apply to the arbitrators for interim
injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Further, either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or
provisional relief necessary to protect the rights or property of such Party pending the arbitration award. 
 (f) The
arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a Party’s compensatory damages. 
 (g) Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees and an equal share of the arbitrators’ and any administrative fees of arbitration. 

(h) Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or as may be required by applicable Laws, neither Party nor any arbitrator
may disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. 

  
 30 









  
 (i) In no event
shall an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations. 

13.3 Patent and Trademark Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy or claim relating to the scope, validity, enforceability or
infringement of any patent or trademark rights relating to the Companion Diagnostic shall be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction in the country where such patent or trademark rights were granted or arose. 

13.4 Injunctive Relief. Nothing herein may prevent either Party from seeking preliminary injunction or temporary restraint order
in order to prevent any Confidential Information from being disclosed without appropriate authorization under this Agreement. 

13.5 Survivability. The obligations to arbitrate under this Agreement shall remain in effect and be enforceable after termination
or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. 
 ARTICLE 14 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 14.1 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, together with all Exhibits attached hereto, constitutes the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements relating to its subject matter, provided however, that (a) the Non-Disclosure Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall continue to apply to all exchanges of
confidential information that do not pertain to the subject matter of this Agreement, and (b) the MSA together with any task orders thereto shall remain in full force and effect, provided that to the extent the confidentiality and non-use
obligations under this Agreement overlap with or are inconsistent with such obligations under the NDA or the MSA, the most stringent obligations shall apply. This Agreement may not be changed, modified, amended or supplemented except by a written
instrument signed by both Parties. 
 14.2 Force Majeure. Each Party shall be excused from the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such performance is prevented by force majeure and the nonperforming Party promptly provides notice of the prevention to the other Party. Such excuse shall be continued so long as the condition
constituting force majeure continues and the nonperforming Party takes reasonable efforts to remove the condition. For purposes of this Agreement, force majeure shall include conditions beyond the reasonable control of the nonperforming Party,
including without limitation, an act of God or terrorism, involuntary compliance with any regulation, law or order of any government, war, civil commotion, epidemic, failure or default of public utilities or common carriers, destruction of
production facilities or materials by fire, earthquake, storm or like catastrophe. 
 14.3 Notices. Any notice required
or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing, shall specifically refer to this Agreement, and shall be addressed to the appropriate Party at the address specified below or such other address as may be specified by such Party in
writing in accordance with this Section 14.3, and shall be deemed to have been given for all

 14.4 No Strict Construction; Headings. This Agreement has been prepared jointly and shall
not be strictly construed against either Party. Ambiguities, if any, in this Agreement shall not be construed against any Party, irrespective of which Party may be deemed to have authored the ambiguous provision. The headings of each Article and
Section in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to limit or expand on the meaning of the language contained in the particular Article or Section. 

14.5 Assignment; Subcontract. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the
Parties hereto; provided, however, that neither Party shall transfer or assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party. Any permitted successor or assignee of rights and/or obligations hereunder shall, in writing to the
other Party, expressly assume performance of such rights and/or obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder without such consent to an Affiliate, or to a Third Party in
connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of its business to which this Agreement relates, whether by merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or otherwise, provided that in the event of such a transaction with a Third Party,
intellectual property rights of such Third Party shall not be included in the intellectual property rights licensed under this Agreement to the extent such 

  

***Confidential Treatment Requested 


  
 32 









 
intellectual property rights would not have been licensed under this Agreement in the absence of such transaction. Other than regulatory activities, Genoptix may not subcontract or otherwise
delegate its obligations under this Agreement without Ambit’s prior written consent. Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section 14.5 shall be null, void and of no legal effect.

 14.6 Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments, and to do all
such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement. 
 14.7
Compliance with Applicable Laws. Each Party shall comply with all applicable Laws in the course of performing its obligations or exercising its rights pursuant to this Agreement. 

14.8 Severability. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of
competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be or is taken, the provision shall be considered severed from this Agreement and shall not serve to invalidate any remaining provisions hereof. The Parties shall make a good faith effort to replace
any invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable one such that the objectives contemplated by the Parties when entering this Agreement may be realized. 
 14.9 No Waiver. Any delay in enforcing a Party’s rights under this Agreement or any waiver as to a particular default or other matter shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s rights
to the future enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, except with respect to an express written and signed waiver relating to a particular matter for a particular period of time. 

14.10 Independent Contractors. Each Party shall act solely as an independent contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed to give either Party the power or authority to act for, bind, or commit the other Party in any way. Nothing herein shall be construed to create the relationship of partners, principal and agent, or joint-venture partners between the
Parties. 
 14.11 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the
State of California, excluding those laws that direct the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. Issues concerning the validity and construction of patents, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights shall be determined in
accordance with the laws of the country or jurisdiction in which such patents, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights were granted or arose. 
 14.12 No Implied Licenses. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Party shall be deemed by estoppel or implication to have granted to the other Party any license or other rights
with respect to any intellectual property of such Party. 
 14.13 Counterparts; Execution. This Agreement may be executed
in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or by electronic signature.
