sales of such Covered Product for: 
  

	(a)	customary trade, quantity, and cash discounts; provided however, that where any such discount is based on sales of a bundled set of products in which such Covered Product is included, the discount shall be allocated to
such Covered Product on a pro rata basis based on the sales value (i.e., the unit average selling price multiplied by the unit volume) of the Covered Product relative to the sales value contributed by the other constituent products in the bundled
set, with respect to such sale; 

  

	(b)	customary and reasonable credits, rebates and chargebacks (including those to managed-care entities and government agencies, including those in respect of any state or federal Medicare, Medicaid or similar programs),
and allowances or credits to customers on account of rejection or returns (including, but not limited to, wholesaler and retailer returns) or on account of retroactive price reductions affecting such Covered Product; 


 

	(c)	freight, postage and duties, and transportation charges relating to such Covered Product, including handling and insurance charges relating thereto; 


 

	(d)	sales (such as VAT and other indirect taxes or its equivalent) and excise taxes, other consumption taxes, customs duties and compulsory payments to governmental authorities and any other governmental charges imposed

be excluded from the computation of Net Sales; and no payments will be payable on such sales, except where such Affiliates are end-users, in which case such sales shall be included in the computation of Net Sales and the Net Sales therefrom shall be
equal to the Net Sales resulting from arm’s length sales of the same product to third parties in similar quantities. In addition, any Covered Product provided free of charge to patients as samples or for compassionate use or clinical trials
will not be included in the Net Sales. 

 For the purposes of determining royalties on Comparable Combination
Products or other Combination Products (as such terms are defined below), Net Sales will be calculated as follows, in each calendar quarter:  
  

	 	(i)	In the event the Covered Product is sold in combination with one or more other comparable ingredients (e.g., another superabsorbent polymer) (a “Comparable Combination Product”) the royalty payment with
respect to such Comparable Combination Product shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Comparable Combination Product by the percentage (by weight) of the Covered Product present in the Comparable Combination Product. In no event
shall the royalty due to One Italy on a Comparable Combination Product be reduced pursuant to the preceding sentence to an amount less than 25% of the royalty due under this Agreement. 


 

	 	(ii)	 In the event the Covered Product is sold in a finished dosage form in combination with one or more other therapeutically active and not comparable
ingredients (a “Combination Product”) and all therapeutically active pharmaceutical ingredients comprising the Combination Product are marketed and sold separately in commercially relevant quantities in a calendar quarter and the
Net Selling Price (as defined below) for each such therapeutically active pharmaceutical ingredients can be separately determined for such quarter, Net Sales of each Combination Product for determining the royalty payment with respect to such
Combination Product shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by A divided by the sum of A plus B (A/(A+B)), in which A is the Net Selling Price of the single therapeutically active pharmaceutical ingredient in the
Covered Product contained in the Combination Product sold during the relevant payment period and B is the Net Selling Price of the other therapeutically active pharmaceutical ingredients contained in the Combination Product sold during such payment
period. All Net Selling Prices of the therapeutically active pharmaceutical ingredients in the Combination Product shall be calculated as the weighted average of the prices of the active ingredients (in effect with respect to the period for which
royalties are being calculated hereunder) in effect in the countries representing the top eighty percent (80%) of the Combination Product sales (the “Market Basket”). “Net Selling Price” means the gross price
at 










	 	
which a product is sold to a third party after discounts, deductions, credits, taxes and allowance. If either A or B cannot be determined for any reason in any such case, the Parties will meet
and negotiate an appropriate method for determining the Net Sales resulting from sales of such Combination Product, taking into account the contribution each therapeutically active pharmaceutical ingredient makes to the total selling price of such
Combination Product. 

 1.24 “Patent Rights” means: 

 

	(a)	all regional, national and international patents and patent applications, including provisional patent applications, listed on Schedule 1.23 hereto; 


 

	(b)	all patent applications filed in any country either from such patents, patent applications or provisional applications or from an application claiming priority from either of these, including divisionals, continuations,
continuations-in-part, provisionals, converted provisionals, and continued prosecution applications; 

  

	(c)	any and all patents that have issued or in the future issue from the foregoing patent applications ((a) and (b)), including utility models, petty patents and design patents and certificates of invention;


  

	(d)	any and all extensions or restorations by existing or future extension or restoration mechanisms, including revalidations, reissues, re-examinations and extensions (including any supplementary protection certificates
and the like) of the foregoing patents or patent applications ((a), (b) and (c)), and 

  

	(e)	any similar rights, including so-called pipeline protection, or any importation, revalidation, confirmation or introduction patent or registration patent or patent of additions to any such foregoing patent applications
and patents in any country. 

 1.25 “Person” means an individual, sole proprietorship, partnership, limited
partnership, limited liability partnership, corporation, limited liability company, business trust, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated association, joint venture or other similar entity or organization, including a government or political
subdivision, department or agency of a government. 
 1.26 “Regulatory Approval” means any and all approvals (including price
and reimbursement approvals, if required), licenses, registrations, or authorizations of any Regulatory Authority in the United States or European Union that are necessary for the manufacture, use, storage, import, transport and/or sale of a Covered
Product in such jurisdiction in accordance with applicable laws. 
 1.27 “Regulatory Authority” means any national or
supranational governmental authority that has responsibility in any country or other regulatory jurisdiction over the development and/or commercialization of Covered Products. 

1.28 “Special Drug Delivery Products” means drug delivery products and drug delivery process or technologies (such as product or
process related to in-vivo delivery of ion chelating ligands for therapy) which (A) do not incorporate any composition of matter that is claimed by 







 
any of the Patent Rights and (B) are not related to the following: (i) obesity and/or weight loss and/or diet; (ii) diabetes; (iii) metabolic diseases; (iv) GI disorders;
(v) laxatives; (vi) liquid removal. 
 1.29 “Valid Claim” means a claim of any unexpired United States or foreign patent which
shall not have been withdrawn, cancelled or disclaimed, nor held invalid by a Court of competent jurisdiction in an unappealed or unappealable decision. 

1.30 “Weight Loss Product” means a Covered Product that is a capsulated super absorbent polymer or other medical device, or pharmaceutical
product indicated for the treatment of patients who are obese or overweight defined by Body Mass Index (BMI). 
 1.31 “Weight Loss Proof of
Concept” means statistically significant results (defined as a two-tailed p-value < 0.05) in a randomized controlled clinical trial of a Covered Product conducted by or on behalf of Gelesis, LLC or any of its Affiliates prospectively
designed to demonstrate efficacy and safety as required by the FDA or the EMA or most notified bodies in Europe for medical device or drug approval for weight loss.

4.2 No Multiple Royalties. If the manufacture, use, lease, or sale of any Covered Product is covered by more than one of the Valid Claims under the
Patent Rights, or any patents in the Improvements or Food IP, multiple royalties shall not be due. 
 4.3 Anti-Stacking. Should intellectual property
rights owned by a third party that is not a Gelesis Affiliate pose as an obstacle to the development or commercialization of any Covered Product that is not a Food Product (the “Blocking IP”), Gelesis, LLC, or an applicable
Affiliate of Gelesis, LLC shall, after consulting in good faith with One Italy, seek a potential settlement solution with the Blocking IP holder and the royalties for Covered Products that are not Food Products set forth in Section 4.1 shall be
reduced by the amount of such consideration paid for the rights to such Blocking IP; provided, however, that (i) such reduction shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the consideration paid by Gelesis, LLC to the third party for the
rights to such Blocking IP and (ii) in no case shall the royalties for Covered Products that are not Food Products set forth in Section 4.1 be reduced by more than fifty percent (50%) as a result of this application of this
Section 4.3. 
 4.4 Royalty Duration. The obligation of Gelesis, LLC to pay royalties pursuant to Section 4.1 shall terminate with respect
to each Covered Product on a country-by-country basis, concurrently with (i) the expiration or termination of the last Valid Claim under the Patent Rights in the relevant country for such Covered Product or (ii) the withdrawal,
cancellation, or disclaiming of the last Valid Claim under the Patent Rights in such country for such Covered Product (for each such Covered Product and country, the “Royalty Term”). 

4.5 License Income. Gelesis, LLC shall pay to One Italy ten percent (10%) of License Income received by Gelesis, LLC and its Affiliates on
(i) Food Products and (ii) Covered Products that are not orally administered. 
 4.6 Reports and Payments. Following the commencement of
Gelesis, LLC’s obligations to pay any royalties pursuant to Section 4.1, Gelesis LLC shall deliver to One Italy within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar quarter a written report showing its computation of royalties due
under this Agreement for such calendar quarter. Simultaneously with the delivery of each such report, Gelesis, LLC shall tender payment of all amounts shown to be due thereon. The royalty payments due on sales in currencies other than Euro shall be
calculated using the appropriate exchange rate for such currency quoted by the relevant Government Authority as published by The Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the calendar quarter to which such report relates. All amounts due under
this Agreement shall be paid to One Italy in Euro (EUR) by wire transfer to an account in a bank designated by One Italy, or in such other form and/or manner as One Italy may reasonably request.
