NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises
and the mutual promises and covenants set forth below, the parties hereto agree as follows:


 


1. CERTAIN DEFINITIONS


 


As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the
following meanings, unless the context requires otherwise.


 


1.1 “Affiliate” shall mean any legal entity
(such as a corporation, partnership, or limited liability company) that is controlled by a Party. For the purposes of this definition,
the term “control” means (a) beneficial ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of a corporation
or other business organization with voting securities or (b) a fifty percent (50%) or greater interest in the net assets or profits
of a partnership or other business organization without voting securities.


 


1.2 “Commercially Reasonable Efforts” shall
mean the efforts and resources comparable to those undertaken by a biopharmaceutical or biotechnology company of comparable size
and resources as the Company relating to the development or commercialization of a similar product owned by such company, or to
which such company has exclusive rights, with comparable market potential and at a similar stage in its lifecycle. All relevant
factors, as measured by the facts and circumstances at the time such efforts are due, shall be taken into account, including, as
applicable and without limitation, stage of development, efficacy and safety relative to competitive products in the marketplace,
actual or anticipated Regulatory Approval labeling, the nature and extent of market exclusivity (including patent coverage, proprietary
position and regulatory exclusivity), and the cost and time required for and likelihood of obtaining Regulatory Approval, but excluding
from such consideration the obligation of the Company to make payments requirement to be made by the Company to JSR under this
Agreement.


 


1.3 “Commencement” shall mean, with respect
to a clinical trial, the first dosing of a patient with a Product in such clinical trial.


 


1.4 “Confidential Information” shall have
the meaning set forth in Appendix A.


 


1.5 “Cover,” “Covering”
or “Covered” means, with respect to a product, technology, process or method, that, but for a license granted
to a person under a Valid Claim of any patent under which such license is granted, the development, manufacture, commercialization
and/or other use of such product or the practice of such technology, process or method, by such person would infringe such Valid
Claim.


 


1.6 “Covered Molecule” means any Phage-Based
Molecule that (a) cannot be manufactured, used, leased, or sold, in whole or in part, without infringing at least one then current
Valid Claim of the Patent Rights and/or Joint Patent Rights and/or (b) is developed through the use of Materials transferred to
Company by University or JSR, provided that such Materials are not available from other sources at the time of such transfer.


 






    2


     


    

 


1.7 “Distributor” shall mean any third-party
entity to whom the Company, an Affiliate of Company or a Sublicensee has granted, express or implied, the right to distribute any
Product pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(ii).

use. The Parties should take reasonable methods and/or actions to prevent any person, other than a Personnel of a Party (“Third
Person”) from being as an inventor of Joint Invention. For the avoidance of doubt, JSR and University understand that Professors
Rotem Sorek and Eran Elinav of the Weizmann Institute of Science who are founders of the Company (the “WIS Founders”)
consult the Company and may be inventors on Joint Inventions. In such case, the inventorship interests of the WIS Founders would
be owned by Yeda and licensed to the Company in accordance with the Company’s agreement with Yeda. In case any Third Person,
including the WIS Founders, is an inventor of the Joint Invention either because of the consulting of the WIS Founders or under
some unavoidable situation, the Party who initiated the communication with a third party to which a Third Person belongs (“Responsible
Party”) should cause such third party to accept all obligations with respect to the Joint Invention and/or Joint Patent Rights
the Responsible Party owes hereunder as if such third party is the Responsible Party or in case of WIS Founders to have Yeda sign
a letter agreement in a form substantially similar to the one attached hereto as Appendix B (if a Third Person does not belong
to any entity, this sentence shall be read to replace “such third party” with “Third Person”). In addition
if other Parties than the Responsible Party request the document to demonstrate such third party’s acceptance of the obligations
hereunder, the Responsible Party shall submit such document satisfactory to other Parties without delay. “Personnel”
of a Party means an employee, other researcher, consultant or contractor of a Party who is required to assign all of his/her/its
rights in the Joint Invention to such Party.


 


1.10 “Joint Patent Rights” shall mean: (i)

and the resulting patents described in this Section 1.10 (i) or (ii); (iv) any patent or patent application claiming a Joint Invention;
(v) any patents resulting from reissues, reexaminations, extensions, or restorations (and their relevant international equivalents)
of any of the patent applications or patents described in this Section 1.10 (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) .


 


1.11 “License Field” shall mean any therapeutic,

of which it will be deprived due to such breach; (c) the extent to which the breaching party will suffer forfeiture; (d) the likelihood
that the breaching party will cure its failure, taking account of all the circumstances including any reasonable assurances; and

1.14 “Materials” shall mean [***],
which are owned by University and were provided by University to Company under the MTA prior to the Effective Date and are listed
in Schedule A of Appendix C. In addition, during the [***] following the Effective
Date, upon request from the Company, University will provide information of [***].
Such information shall include [***]. If Company informs University in writing that
it wishes to include any such strain as Materials under this Agreement, such strain shall be added to Appendix C and shall be deemed
added to this definition and University or JSR shall provide such strain to Company under the same terms of the MTA.


 


1.15 “MTA” means the material transfer agreement
between Keio and the Company made and entered as of October 1st, 2016.

of such transaction, on the fair market value of the Product. Products provided by the Company and Affiliates free of charge or
at cost, solely for research purposes, or solely for administration to patients enrolled in clinical trials, or distributed through
a not-for-profit foundation at no charge to patients, or as free samples to promote additional Net Sales or for test marketing
purposes, in amounts consistent with normal business practices of Company or its Affiliate, shall not be included in Net Sales
(such provision of Products collectively referred to as “Excluded Transfers”).



 


		(e)	Notwithstanding Section 1.16 (b) above, if any Product
manufactured by the Company is used by the Company or any Affiliate as an end-user, such Product shall be deemed sold by the Company
or the Affiliate and Net Sales of such Product shall be calculated based on the cash amount charged to an independent third party
for the Product during the same Reporting Period or, in the absence of such transaction, on the fair market value of the Product.



 


		(f)	If a product is sold in any country in the form of
a combination product containing (a) a product containing one or more Covered Molecule(s) and which may include other API(s),
which product is or has been sold as a separate product (“Product A”) on the one hand and (b) a product containing
one or more other API(s) (i.e. API(s) not contained in Product A), which product is or has been sold as a separate product (“Product
B”) on the other hand, such product which is composed of Product A and Product B shall be referred to as a “Combination
Product” under this Agreement. JSR and the Company agree to treat Combination Products as follows:



 


[***]
If, in a specific country, the Product A or the Product B is not sold, an average market price for the Product A or the Product
B, as the case may be, in such country shall be determined by good faith negotiation. In such a case, firstly Company will provide
JSR with a written explanation for its proposal based upon the market price of Product A or Product B in other countries with respect
to an average market price for the Product A or the Product B. If JSR disagrees with the market price attributed by Company, JSR
will be entitled to notify Company in writing of such disagreement within [***] of
receipt of such explanation. If JSR provides such written notice within such [***] period,
the parties will resolve such disagreement in accordance with the procedure set forth in Appendix D.

1.19 “Product” shall mean any product for
use in the License Field that contains a Covered Molecule as an active ingredient.


 


1.20 “Reporting Period” shall mean each three-month
period ending March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31.


 


1.21 “Regulatory Approval” means, collectively
with respect to a particular jurisdiction, all governmental approvals (including all pricing and reimbursement approvals practically
required to launch in the country), product and/or establishment licenses, registrations or authorizations necessary for the manufacture,
use, storage, import, export, transport, marketing and sale of a pharmaceutical product as a pharmaceutical in such jurisdiction.
For the avoidance of doubt, if Regulatory Approval for a particular jurisdiction consists of multiple components (for example,
approval of both the manufacturing process used to produce the drug in the facility where it is used and in addition approval of
the safety and efficacy of the drug itself and permission to market it), the Regulatory Approval for such jurisdiction for purposes
of this Agreement is not deemed to occur until the last component is approved.

purposes of the Royalty Term, two Products with the same Covered Molecule will be deemed the same Product.


 


1.23 “Sell” (and “Sale” and “Sold”
as the case may be) shall mean to sell or have sold, to lease or have leased, or otherwise to transfer or have transferred a Product
for valuable consideration (in the form of cash or otherwise).

and non-royalty consideration in any form received by the Company under Sublicense Agreements as consideration for the grant
of Sublicenses. Sublicense Income shall include without limitation any license signing fee, license maintenance fee, distribution

other investment in the Company or its Affiliates.


 


1.26 “Sublicense Agreement” shall mean any
agreement, covenant or contract in which the Company grants a Sublicense.

and/or any Sublicensees’ Affiliates and/or contractors on Company’s or Sublicensee’s (as applicable) or its
Affiliate’s behalf only for Company’s or Sublicensee’s benefit without such right being deemed a Sublicense;
provided, however, that:



 


		(i)	no such Affiliate or contractor shall be entitled to
grant, directly or indirectly, to any third party any right of whatever nature under the rights granted in Section 2.1(a); and



 


		(ii)	any act or omission taken or made by an Affiliate or
contractor of Company under this Agreement will be deemed an act or omission by Company under this Agreement.



 






    8

any licenses that may be granted by University in accordance with Section 2.7 (if any) include:



 


		(i)	the right to grant to the final purchaser, user or consumer

2.2 Further Sublicenses. The Company shall have the right
to grant sublicenses under the rights granted in Section 2.1 and Section 2.7 (if any) at its sole discretion provided that it is
not in material breach of its material obligations set forth herein and it complies with the terms hereof. Each sublicense granted
hereunder shall be consistent with and comply with all terms of this Agreement, and shall incorporate terms and conditions which
Company reasonably believes are sufficient to enable the Company to comply with this Agreement. Any sublicense which is not in
accordance with the forgoing provisions shall be null and void. Prior to or shortly following the signing of a Sublicense agreement,
Company may request in writing that JSR confirm in writing that the relevant Sublicensee is an appropriate potential direct licensee
(i.e. an entity that is capable of further developing and/or commercializing a Product that is the subject to the Sublicense) for
purposes of Section 10.6.4. If Company provides such a request, JSR shall not unreasonably withhold or delay providing such confirmation.
Copies of all Sublicense Agreements, including all amendments thereto, shall be provided to JSR within [***]
of execution thereof with confidential information that is not relevant to JSR redacted. The Company may redact from such
copies any information the Company or its sublicensee deems confidential that does not affect the obligations of the Company under
this Agreement or JSR’s or University’s ability to monitor the Company’s compliance with its payment obligations
under this Agreement. University and JSR shall maintain such copies of Sublicense Agreements in strict confidence and use them
solely for the purposes of monitoring JSR’s and University’s rights under this Agreement. The Company shall not sublicense
the Patent Rights to a patent holding company or other similar non-operating entity that would not reasonably be expected to enable
Company to fulfill the due diligence obligations set forth in Section 3.1.


 






    9


     


    

 


2.3 Retained Rights; Requirements. The University and
JSR retain the right to practice under the Patent Rights in the License Field in the License Territory solely for educational and
non-commercial research purposes; provided that the University and JSR shall be prohibited from transferring any materials that
are Covered by the Patent Rights to any third party, unless (a) as a condition to such transfer, such third party undertakes not
to use such materials and not to allow others to use such materials in the License Field in the License Territory, without the
Company’s prior written consent or (b) such transfer is to a not-for-profit research institute and such research institute
undertakes to use such materials solely for non-commercial, academic research purposes. Furthermore, this Agreement shall not be
construed to grant any license or sublicense to the Company outside the License Field with respect to the Patent Rights. The University
and JSR retain the full right under the Patent Rights outside the License Field or outside the License Territory. For the avoidance
of doubt, any researcher of University and the same researcher who will move to non-commercial organization (i.e. another university
or non-commercial research organization) and collaborators of his or her laboratory in the future may use Patent Rights and/or
Joint Patent Rights only for educational and non-commercial research purposes.


 


2.4 Delivery of Materials. The Company acknowledges that
it already received some Materials of the bacterial strains Covered by the Patent Rights from the University prior to the Effective
Date under the MTA. JSR and the Company shall enter into a Material Transfer Agreement substantially in the form attached to this
Agreement as Appendix C upon the execution of this License Agreement and whenever the Company receives new Material from JSR or
University. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may use the Materials received before the execution of this License Agreement
for the purpose described in Appendix C after the execution of this License Agreement.


 


2.5 Treatment of the Joint Patent Rights. The Joint Patent
Rights shall be jointly owned by a) the Company and b) the University and/or JSR, as the case may be. The University and JSR hereby
consent (a) to the Company grant of sublicenses with respect to the Joint Inventions and Joint Patent Rights for use outside the
License Field, freely without any payment to the University or JSR and (b) to Yeda’s grant of an exclusive license to Company
under Yeda’s interest in the Joint Patent Rights. The Company hereby consents to the University’s grant of sublicenses
with respect to the Joint Inventions and Joint Patent Rights solely for use outside the License Field to JSR freely without any
payment to the Company. The University hereby licenses its right under the Joint Patent Rights and to practice and use the Joint
Inventions to JSR exclusively with the right to sublicense within the License Field, including the sublicenses granted to Company
under this Agreement; and Company consents to University’s license of its rights under the Joint Patent Rights and Joint
Inventions as set forth in this sentence. JSR and University shall not license the right under such Joint Patent Right or the license
to practice and use the Joint Inventions within the License Field to any third party except JSR (in case of University) and the
Company (in case of JSR) and shall not practice the inventions claimed in the Joint Patent Right within the License Field, except
for research purposes that do not involve administration to humans, during the term of this Agreement.

2.6 AMED Research Program; Requirements. The
Company shall acknowledge that i) the University shall be responsible for the requirement of the Innovative Advanced Research and
Development Support Project Unit Type of Japan titled “CREST” and “LEAP” under the Japanese version of
Bayh-Dole provision and the obligation to report inventions to AMED, ii) the University must report created inventions, etc. obtained
from AMED Research Program and the status of such rights to the government or funding agencies without delay and iii) this is a
condition for patent rights to remain with the University. The Company agrees to cooperate in any action necessary for the University
to meet its requirements stipulated in this Section 2.6 at the Company’s own cost and acknowledges that this License Agreement
will be affected by the application of the Japanese version of Bayh-Dole provision.


 


2.7 License from the University.


 


If the license between JSR and the University with respect to
the Patent Rights, the Joint Patent Rights, Joint Inventions and/or Materials is terminated due to any reason not attributable
to the Company, then the University shall negotiate with the Company with respect to direct licenses from the University to the
Company reasonably and in good faith and the University agrees to keep the same financial conditions in accordance with Section
4 hereunder, license scope and other rights in accordance with Section 2 hereunder and termination conditions in accordance with
Section 10 hereunder in such direct licenses. Company and University shall make good faith diligent efforts to enter into such
a direct license agreement within [***] from such termination. During such a good
faith negotiation between the University and the Company up to [***] period from
the termination of the license between JSR and the University, the Company shall have an exclusive license from University in the
same license scope in accordance with Section 2 hereunder with the same financial terms in accordance with Section 4 hereunder
and the Company owes the same obligations under Section 3 and 5 of this Agreement, provided, however, that the Company shall reimburse
the University directly for all documented, out-of-pocket fees and costs, including attorney’s fees, incurred by the University
relating to the filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Patent Rights, which have not been reimbursed by JSR or a third party,
in each case within [***] from the University’s request. If the Company and
the University does not reach the agreement within such [***] period, the Company
shall have non-exclusive license in the same license scope in accordance with Section 2 hereunder, except for the exclusivity,
with the same financial terms in accordance with Section 4 hereunder for additional [***]
after initial [***] period of negotiation and the Company owes the same obligations
under Section 3 and 5 of this Agreement, provided, however, that the Company shall reimburse the University directly for all documented,
out-of-pocket fees and costs, including attorney’s fees, incurred by the University relating to the filing, prosecution and
maintenance of the Patent Rights, which have not been reimbursed by JSR or a third party, in each case within [***]
from the University’s request. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise agreed between the University and the Company,
the University will not succeed JSR’s legal status as a licensor under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the
terms in Section 7 and Section 9.

3.1 Diligence Requirements. The Company hereby represents
that it accepts the license granted hereunder with a view towards developing Products and making Products available to the public.
The Company, alone and/or through its Affiliates and/or Sublicensees, as applicable, shall use, Commercially Reasonable Efforts
to develop and make available to the public Products in the License Territory in the License Field. If JSR believes that the Company
has failed to fulfill its obligations under this Section 3.1, then JSR may notify Company of such failure in writing, which notification
will include an explanation for JSR’s belief. If Company does not respond to such notification within [***],
JSR may treat such failure as a default and may terminate this Agreement and/or any license granted hereunder in accordance with
Section 10.4. If Company reasonably believes that it has not failed to fulfill its obligations under this Section 3.1, it may provide
JSR with a written explanation of the basis for its belief.


 


If Company provides a bona fide written
explanation within [***] of the receipt of JSR’s notice, JSR will not be entitled
to terminate this Agreement nor any license granted hereunder in accordance with Section 10.4 without first undergoing the following
process:


 


(a) If JSR does not accept the Company’s
explanation, JSR may request that the matter be escalated to the chief executive officers of JSR and the Company to discuss the
matter and find a solution within [***] of JSR’s request;


 


(b) If the chief executive officers of JSR
and the Company cannot reach agreement within such [***] period, either party may
initiate mediation upon written notice to the other party, in which case both parties shall be obligated to engage in a mediation
proceeding. The mediation shall commence within [***] of such notice. The mediation
shall be conducted by a single mediator in San Francisco, California and will be conducted in the English language. The party requesting
mediation shall designate two (2) or more nominees for mediator in its notice. The other party may accept one of the nominees or
may designate its own nominees by notice addressed to the Internal Chamber of Commerce in San Francisco, CA and copied to the requesting
party. If within, [***] following the request for mediation, the parties have not
selected a mutually acceptable mediator, a mediator shall be appointed by the International Chamber of Commerce according to its
rules. The mediator shall attempt to facilitate a negotiated settlement of the dispute, but shall have no authority to impose any
settlement terms on the parties. The expenses of the mediation shall be borne by Company, but each party shall be responsible for
its own counsel fees and expenses. If JSR and Company are unable to reach a resolution of the matter, the dispute shall be resolved
in accordance with Section 12.8.


 


3.2 Progress Reports. The Company shall, upon request
of JSR received within [***], provide JSR with a report on the status of its commercial
development efforts with respect to Products and its commercial efforts to make Products available to the public within [***]
during the Term.

forth in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 above, the Company shall pay to JSR milestone payments, as follows:


 


	Milestones	 	Amount Paid to JSR
	[***]	 	[***]
	[***]	 	[***]



 


 


The Parties acknowledge that for the purposes of milestone payments,
two products that contain same Covered Molecule (e.g. they have different formulations) will be deemed the same Product. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that all such milestones are to be paid only once regardless of whether achieved multiple
times, by multiple entities. Milestone payments shall be paid to JSR within [***]
following achievement of the applicable milestone.


 


4.4 Royalties.


 


		(a)	Royalties on Net Sales.



 


		(i)	Beginning with the First Commercial Sale in any country
in the License Territory, the Company shall pay to JSR royalties based on the total annual Net Sales in the License Territory
by the Company and its Affiliates on a Product-by-Product basis during the Royalty Term for such Product, in the amounts as follows:



 


	Annual Net Sales in the Territory	 	Royalty Rate
	[***]*	 	[***]
	[***]*	 	[***]
	[***]*	 	[***]



 


		*	[***].



 


		(ii)	The royalty rates set forth in Section 4.4(a)(i) are
incremental or tiered rates, which apply only for the respective increment of annual Net Sales of a given Product described in
the annual Net Sales column. Thus, once a total annual Net Sales figure with respect to such Product is achieved for a given year,
the royalties owed on any lower tier portion of annual Net Sales are not adjusted up to the higher tier rate for such year. Furthermore,
the obligation to pay royalties pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(i) is imposed only once with respect to the same unit of a Product,
regardless of how many patents may Cover the Product.



 






    13


     


    

 


		(iii)	All payments due to JSR under this Section 4.4(a) shall
be due and payable by the Company within [***] for the relevant royalty on Net
Sales, and shall be accompanied by a report as set forth in Section 5.2.. For the avoidance of doubt, if the manufacture, use,
lease, or sale of any Product is Covered by more than one of the Patent Rights and/or Joint Patent Rights, multiple royalties
shall not be due.



 


		(b)	Royalties on Sublicense Income.



 


		(i)	The Company shall pay to JSR a percentage of all Sublicense
Income received by the Company or its Affiliates in accordance with the below schedule based on the amount spent by the Company
on the development of the Product(s) that are covered by the applicable Sublicense Agreement before the execution of such Sublicense
Agreement:



 


	Amount Spent	 	Percentage of Sublicense Income Paid to JSR
	[***]	 	[***]
	[***]	 	[***]
	[***]	 	[***]



 


		(ii)	All payments due to JSR under this Section 4.4(b) shall
be due and payable by the Company within [***] in which the relevant Sublicense
Income was received, and shall be accompanied by a report as set forth in Section 5.3. For the avoidance of doubt, if the manufacture,
use, lease, or sale of any Product is Covered by more than one of the Patent Rights and/or Joint Patent Rights, multiple royalties
shall not be due.



 


(c) If the Company enters into a license
agreement with an unaffiliated third party for the license of intellectual property rights that are not specific to API(s)
contained in Product B included in the Combination Product and that the Company believes, in its good faith judgment, are needed
for the making, using or selling of the relevant Product with respect to which royalties are due on Net Sales or that may be subject
to a sublicense agreement with respect to which royalties are due on Sublicense Income, the Company will be entitled to deduct
up to [***] of any amounts paid under such license agreement with respect to such
Products or Sublicense Income against amounts due for Net Sales or Sublicense Income described above, as applicable; provided that
in no event shall any payments to JSR in any quarter be reduced by more than [***]
of the amount otherwise due [***].


 






    14


     


    

 


4.5 Form of Payment. All payments due under this Agreement
shall be payable in United States dollars. Each payment shall reference this Agreement and identify the obligation under this Agreement
that the payment satisfies. Conversion of foreign currency to U.S. dollars shall be made at the conversion rate existing in the
United States, as reported in The Wall Street Journal, on the last working day of the applicable Reporting Period. Such payments
shall be without deduction of exchange, collection or other charges. If Company is required to withhold any amounts payable hereunder
to JSR due to the applicable laws of any country, such amount will be deducted from the payment to be made by Company and remitted
to the appropriate taxing authority for the benefit of JSR. Company will withhold only such amounts as are required to be withheld
by applicable law in the country from which payment is being made. Company shall submit to JSR originals of the remittance voucher
and the official receipt evidencing the payment of the corresponding taxes with the applicable royalty report. Company will cooperate
with JSR to provide such information and records as JSR may require in connection with any application by JSR to the tax authorities
in any country, including attempt to obtain an exemption or a credit for any withholding tax paid in any country. All payments
due under this Agreement shall be payable by wire transfer to a bank account to be designated by JSR. Bank fees shall be paid by
the Company and shall not be deducted from any amount payable to JSR.


 


4.6 Payment to the University. The payment under this
Section 4 represents all consideration that will be due for the rights granted to the Company (including under any rights owned
or licensed by JSR) under this Agreement. JSR will be responsible for paying the University any amounts the University may be due
on account of the rights granted to the Company through JSR, out of the amounts paid to JSR. When Section 2.7 shall apply, JSR
and University shall promptly notify Company of such. Following Company’s receipt of such notification, (a) all references
in this Agreement to payments to JSR shall be changed to University, (b) Company shall make such payments to University instead
of JSR and (c) JSR shall have no further right to receive such payments from Company.

Agreement and any amounts payable to JSR in relation to this Agreement, which records shall contain sufficient information to permit

with this Agreement. The Company shall retain and make available, and shall cause each Affiliate to retain and make available,
such records for at least [***] following the end of the calendar year to which
they pertain. During such period, JSR shall be entitled to have an independent certified public accounting firm that is acceptable
to Company, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and upon at least [***]
advance written notice, inspect during normal business hours, such records in order to verify any reports and payments made
and/or compliance in other respects under this Agreement. Such accountants shall sign a customary confidentiality and non-use agreement
and shall not be entitled to disclose to JSR or University any information obtained or generated in such audit other than other

of [***] in any payment due to JSR hereunder, the Company shall bear the full cost
of such audit and shall remit any amounts due to JSR within [***] of receiving notice

6. PATENT PROSECUTION AND MAINTENANCE


 


6.1 Responsibility for Patent Prosecution. The Company
and other joint owner(s) will prepare, file, prosecute, and maintain all of the Joint Patent Rights. The joint owner(s) and JSR
(if JSR is not the joint owner), shall have reasonable opportunities to advise the Company and shall cooperate with the Company
in filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Joint Patent Rights. The Company shall consult with the joint owner(s) and JSR (if
JSR is not the joint owner) before taking any action that would have a material adverse impact on the scope of claims within the
Joint Patent Rights. The Company shall furnish or instruct attorneys to furnish to the University and JSR copies of documents relevant
to any such filing, prosecution or maintenance at least [***] prior to any anticipated
actions and shall consider in good faith any revisions reasonably requested by the University and/or JSR with respect to such filings,
provided that Company will retain final decision making authority. Payment of all out of pocket fees and costs, including attorney’s
fees, incurred by joint owner(s) relating to the filing, prosecution and maintenance of Joint Patent Rights shall be borne by the
Company.


 


6.2 Patent Rights Prosecution. JSR shall furnish to the
Company copies of documents relevant to any filing, prosecution or maintenance of Patent Rights licensed to the Company hereunder
at least [***] prior to any anticipated actions. The Company may advise JSR and/or
the University in selecting patent attorneys, suggesting countries where patent filings are made and whether pending claims are
to be pursued.


 


7.
INFRINGEMENT.


 


7.1 Notification of Infringement. Each Party agrees to
provide written notice to the other Party promptly after becoming aware of any infringement of the Patent Rights and/or the Joint
Patent Rights in the License Field.


 






    17


     


    

 


7.2 Right to Prosecute Infringements.


 


		(a)	During the term of this Agreement, the Company may
commence and prosecute at its own expense and in its name alone all actions for past and future infringements of the Patent Rights
and/or the Joint Patent Right in the License Field (“Infringement Actions by the Company”), provided that the Company
obtains JSR’s prior written consent on each Infringement Action by the Company with respect to Patent Rights. JSR shall
not withhold its consent on any Infringement Action by the Company without reasonable ground. For example, if participation of
the University in an Infringement Action by the Company is required by the laws of the jurisdiction where such action is commenced,
or requested by the Company, it shall be reasonable ground for JSR to withhold its consent on the Infringement Action by the Company.
For clarity, Company will not be required to obtain JSR’s or University’s consent with respect to an Infringement
Action by the Company relating to the Joint Patent Rights and shall have the sole right to commence such an Infringement Action
by the Company. The total cost of any Infringement Action by the Company shall be borne by the Company and the Company shall keep
any recovery or damages for past or future infringement obtained.



 


		(b)	If required by the laws of the jurisdiction where an Infringement
Action by the Company is commenced, and to the extent reasonably available under such laws, i) JSR and the University shall cooperate
the Company in giving the Company the legal status to commence the Infringement Action by the Company or ii) JSR shall cooperate
with the Company in participating in an Infringement Action by the Company as a licensor at the Company’s sole expense.
The Company shall reimburse JSR and the University for all documented, out-of-pocket costs incurred by JSR and/or the University
due to such cooperation. JSR or the University shall not have any obligation of cooperation in, or action relating to, any Infringement
Action by the Company except as provided for in this Section 7.2(b) or in Section 7(a).



 


7.3 Declaratory Judgment Actions. In the event that a
declaratory judgment action is brought against JSR, the University or the Company by a third party alleging invalidity, unenforceability,
or non-infringement of the Patent Rights, JSR, at its option, shall have the right within [***]
after commencement of such action to take over or cause the University to take over the sole defense of the action at JSR’s
expense. If JSR does not exercise this right, the Company may take over the sole defense of the action at the Company’s sole
expense. For clarity, no rights are granted under this Section 7.3 to JSR or University with respect to Joint Patent Rights.


 


7.4 Recovery. Any recovery obtained
in an action brought by the Company under Sections 7.2 or 7.3 shall be distributed as follows: (a) each Party shall be reimbursed
pari passu for any expenses incurred in the action from the proceeds of such action or settlement, (b) as to ordinary damages,
such amount shall be treated as Net Sales, and the Company shall pay to JSR based upon such amount a reasonable approximation of
the royalties and other amounts that the Company would have paid to JSR if the Company had sold the infringing products, processes
and services rather than the infringer and (c) as to special or punitive damages, JSR shall receive [***]
of such damages and the remaining [***] shall be retained by Company.


 


7.5 Cooperation. Subject to Section
7.2(b), each Party agrees to cooperate in any action under this Article which is controlled by the other Party, provided that the
controlling Party reimburses the cooperating Party promptly for any costs and expenses incurred by the cooperating Party in connection
with providing such assistance.


 






    18


     


    

 


7.6 Right to Sublicense. So long as
the Company remains the exclusive licensee of the Patent Rights and/or Joint Patent Rights in the License Field in the License
Territory, the Company shall have the sole right to sublicense any alleged infringer in the License Field in the License Territory
for use of the Patent Rights and/or Joint Patent Rights, as applicable, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement
relating to Sublicense Agreements.


 


7.7 Confidentiality of Prosecution and Maintenance Information.
The Company agrees to treat all information related to prosecution and maintenance of Patent Rights as Confidential Information
in accordance with the provisions of Appendix A. JSR and University agree to treat all information related to prosecution
and maintenance of Joint Patent Rights as Confidential Information of Company in accordance with the provisions of Appendix
A.


 


8. INDEMNIFICATION 


 


8.1 The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
University and JSR and their respective trustees, directors, officers, medical and professional staff, employees, and agents and
their respective successors, heirs and assigns (the “Indemnitees”), against any liability, damage, loss or expense
(including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses of litigation) (a “Loss”) incurred by or imposed upon
the Indemnitees or any one of them as a result of any third party claims, suits, actions, demands or judgments arising out of any
theory of product liability (including, but not limited to, actions in the form of contract, tort, warranty, or strict liability)
concerning any product, process or service made, used, or sold or performed pursuant to any right or license granted to Company
pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.2 (including pursuant to any sublicenses granted by Company) under this Agreement (“Claim”);
provided that the Company shall not have any liability for any Loss arising out of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of
any Indemnitee.


 


8.2 If any Indemnitee receives notice of any Claim, such Indemnitee
shall, as promptly as is reasonably possible, give Company notice of such Claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notice
promptly shall only relieve Company of any indemnification obligation it may have hereunder to the extent such failure diminishes
the ability of Company to respond to or to defend the Indemnitee against such Claim. The Company agrees, at its own expense, to
provide attorneys reasonably acceptable to JSR and/or the University, as the case may be, to defend against any actions brought
or filed against any Indemnitee with respect to the subject of indemnity contained herein, whether or not such actions are rightfully
brought; provided, however, that any Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, at the expense of the Company,
if representation of such Indemnitee by counsel retained by the Company would be inappropriate because of conflict of interests
of such Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel. The Company agrees to keep JSR and/or the University, as the
case may be, informed of the progress in the defense and disposition of such claim and to consult with JSR and/or the University,
as the case may be, prior to any proposed settlement.


 


8.3 This Section 8 shall survive expiration or termination of
this Agreement.


 






    19

as to the patentability, validity, scope, or usefulness of the Patent Rights and/or the Joint Patent Rights;



 


		(b)	A representation or warranty by JSR or the University

shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless this Agreement is terminated earlier in accordance with any of the other provisions

to Company under Section 2 shall remain in effect and shall become fully-paid up, royalty-free, perpetual and irrevocable.


 


10.2 Termination for Failure to Pay. If the Company fails
to make any undisputed payment due hereunder, JSR shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon [***]
written notice, unless the Company makes such payments within said [***] notice

immediately upon written notice to the Company with no further notice obligation or opportunity to cure if the Company: (a) shall

prior to offering such sale or license of any interest in Joint Patent Rights of the Company to any third party. If the Company

after the Negotiation Period, Company shall not sell or license such interest in the Joint Patent Rights of the Company
to a third party on terms and conditions, when taken as a whole (including, without limitation, financial terms and the likelihood

Breach. For the avoidance of doubt, Company shall use reasonable efforts to cure any undisputed breach which could be cured within
such [***] and JSR may claim its damages incurred by any breach by the Company even
in case JSR shall not terminate this Agreement.

fee, ii) the royalties (such royalties should be a) royalties on Net Sales by Sublicensee and its Affiliates as stipulated in sub-Section
4.4 (a) and b) royalties on Sublicense Income (as defined in Section 1.25, but with reference to amounts received by the Sublicensee
and its Affiliates and not to Company and its Affiliates) received by such Sublicensee and its Affiliate in the percentages stipulated
in sub-Section 4.4 (b) (based on the amount spent by such Sublicensee on the development of the Product(s) that are covered by
the applicable further sublicense agreement before the execution of such sublicense agreement), in case of a further sublicense
by such Sublicensee) under the same terms of this Agreement as if such Sublicensee were Company and iii) the milestone payments
under the same terms of this Agreement [***] (i.e. if the Sublicensee were to meet
a milestone described in Section 4.3, it would have to pay [***] set forth in Section
4.3 for such milestone), such Sublicensee may retain the same license scope it enjoys under this Agreement for the period up to
[***], provided, however, that such Sublicensee owes the same obligations under
Section 3 and Section 5 of this Agreement. Company and JSR shall make good faith diligent efforts to enter into such a direct license
agreement within [***] from such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, the royalty
in accordance with this sub-Section 10.6.3 should be calculated based upon global Sales of the same Product by all Sublicensees.
During such [***] period, JSR and such Sublicensee shall have a good-faith, diligent
and reasonable negotiation with respect to the terms of a direct license between JSR and such Sublicensee, including but not limited
to, the financial conditions. The financial conditions of a new license agreement between JSR and such Sublicensee should be at
least the same as the one under this Agreement however should not exceed financial conditions under the agreement between the Company
and such Sublicensee.






 






    22


     


    

 


10.6.4. If at the time of the termination of this Agreement
only a single direct Sublicensee exists and such Sublicensee was confirmed by JSR as an appropriate potential direct licensee in
accordance with Section 2.2 prior to or shortly following the time of execution of Sublicense Agreement between such Sublicensee
and the Company, then JSR agrees to keep the same financial terms on [***]. JSR
shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its confirmation, provided, however, that JSR shall have a commercially reasonable access
to information which is necessary for JSR to make such confirmation. During a good faith negotiation for direct license between
JSR and such Sublicensee up to [***] period from the termination of this Agreement,
such Sublicensee shall have an exclusive license in the same license scope in accordance with Section 2 hereunder with the same
financial terms in accordance with Section 4 as described above in this Section 10.6.4. If JSR and such Sublicensee do not reach
the agreement within such [***] period, such Sublicensee shall have non-exclusive
license in the same license scope in accordance with Section 2 hereunder, except for the exclusivity, with the same financial terms
in accordance with Section 4 hereunder (as described above in this Section 10.6.4) so far as the Sublicensee continues to negotiate
in good faith after the [***] period of negotiation. For the avoidance of doubt,
except for the direct licenses described above during the negotiations period or as otherwise agreed between JSR and such Sublicensee,
such Sublicensee will not automatically succeed the Company’s legal status as a licensee under this Agreement.


 


10.7 Inventory. Upon early termination of this Agreement,
the Company, Affiliates and Sublicensees may complete and Sell any work-in-progress and inventory of Products that exist as of
the effective date of termination provided that (a) the Company pays to JSR the applicable running royalty or other amounts
due on such Net Sales in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (b) the Company, Affiliates and Sublicensees
shall use reasonable efforts to complete and Sell all work-in-progress and inventory of Products within [***]
after the effective date of termination.


 


10.8 Results.


 


(a) If this Agreement is terminated by JSR
pursuant to Section 10.2, 10.3 or 10.4 , or by the Company pursuant to Section 10.5, in each case prior to the grant of the first
Sublicense to a pharmaceutical or biotechnology company for continued clinical development under this Agreement, upon the written
request of JSR, to be provided within [***] of termination, the Company shall grant
to JSR of a non-exclusive license to data and other results obtained by the Company in the clinical development and other activities
under the rights granted in this Agreement as well as documents prepared for Regulatory Approvals (collectively, “Results”)
on commercially reasonable terms. If JSR provides such written request within such [***]
period, the parties will enter into good faith, diligent efforts to agree on such terms. If the parties are unable to reach
agreement on such terms within [***] of JSR’s written request, the terms will
be determined in accordance with procedure set forth in Appendix D.


 






    23


     


    

 


(b) Provided that if JSR has reasonably
determined that it is necessary for JSR or any Affiliate of JSR to have a license of any technology of a non-Affiliate third party
in order to make, use or Sell the relevant Product, JSR shall thereafter be entitled to deduct [***]
of the amount of the royalties paid to such third party by JSR or any Affiliate of JSR on Sales of such Products made using
such technology from the payments due to Company under Section 10.8(b), provided that in no event shall the total of such deductions
reduce the amounts payable to Company by more than [***] in any Reporting Period.
For the purpose of this Section 10.8 only, the term “the Company” appearing in Section 1.16 (the definition of “Net
Sales”) is replaced by the term “JSR”, and the term “JSR” appearing in Section 1.16 is replaced by
the term “the Company”.

Article 13 CONFIDENTIALITY.


 


13.1 For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential
Information” means any and all technical information furnished by one Party (the “Disclosing Party”)
to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) that (i) is in electronic, written or other tangible form and clearly
marked as “Confidential,” or (ii) is disclosed orally or visually and designated as confidential at the time of the
oral or visual disclosure and, further, within thirty days after the oral or visual disclosure, the summary of which is furnished
to Receiving Party in writing clearly marked as “Confidential” and/or materials, including, but not limited to, the
Material.


 


13.2 The term “Confidential Information” does not,
however, include information that (i) is or becomes within the public domain through no act of the Receiving Party or its Representatives
(as defined below) in breach of this Agreement; (ii) is already in the Receiving Party’s possession without obligation of
confidentiality at the time of disclosure and the Receiving Party; (iii) has been lawfully obtained by the Receiving Party from
a third party having the right to make the disclosure who places no obligation of confidence upon the Receiving Party; or (iv)
is independently developed by the Receiving Party without access to or use of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party.


 


13.3 The Receiving Party shall keep the Confidential Information
confidential and shall not, without the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent, disclose any Confidential Information in
any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, to any third party; provided, however, that the Receiving Party may disclose the Confidential
Information or portions thereof to its directors, officers, employees, advisors and, in the case of JSR, University (collectively,
“Representatives”) (i) who need to know the Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement and
(ii) who have been advised of by the Receiving Party and have agreed to maintain the confidential nature of the Confidential Information.
The Receiving Party agrees to be responsible for any and all breaches of this Article 13 by its Representatives.


 


13.4 The Receiving Party shall use any Confidential Information
of the Disclosing Party solely for the purposes of this Agreement and shall not use, directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information
in whole or in part for any other purpose whatsoever. The Receiving Party shall protect all Confidential Information with at least
the same degree of care with which the Receiving Party would treat Confidential Information of its own.


 


13.5 In the event that the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives
are requested pursuant to, or required by, applicable law, regulation or legal process to disclose any of the Confidential Information,
the Receiving Party shall (unless prohibited by applicable law) immediately notify the Disclosing Party of the existence, terms
and circumstances surrounding such request or requirement, and consult with the Disclosing Party on the advisability of taking
legally available steps to resist or narrow the request. In the event that disclosure of any Confidential Information is legally
required, the Receiving Party or its Representatives, as the case may be, shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information
which is legally required and exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment shall be
accorded to such Information.


 






    34


     


    

 


13.6 At any time upon the request of the Disclosing Party, the
Receiving Party shall, at its own expense, promptly deliver to the Disclosing Party, or at the Disclosing Party’s request,
destroy, all copies of the Confidential Information (whether in written, electronic or other tangible format) in the Receiving
Party’s or its Representatives’ possession that was delivered to the Receiving Party by the Disclosing Party. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Receiving Party and its Representatives shall be permitted to retain Confidential Information that would be
unreasonably burdensome to destroy (such as archived computer records) or to the extent required to comply with applicable law,
rules and regulations, provided that any information so retained herein shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement.


 


13.7 This Article 13 will survive for five years after
the termination of this Agreement.
