	 	3.3	 Retained Rights. (A) Stanford retains the right, on behalf of itself and all other non- profit research institutions, to practice the Licensed Patents and the Nonexclusive Licensed Patents for any non-profit purpose, including sponsored research and
collaborations. Alexo agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, it has no right to enforce the Licensed Patents and Nonexclusive Licensed Patents against any such institution. Stanford and any such other institution have
the right to publish any information included in the Nonexclusive Licensed Patents or a Licensed Patent. 


 (B) Alexo
acknowledges that it has been informed that the [***] Patents were developed, at least in part, by employees of HHMI and that HHMI has a paid-up, non-exclusive,
irrevocable license to use the Licensed Patents or Nonexclusive Licensed Patents for HHMI’s research purposes, but with no right to assign or sublicense (the “HHMI License”). This Agreement is explicitly made subject to the HHMI
License. 
  

	 	3.4	 Other Rights. 



I) Stanford’s Office of Technology Licensing, to the best of its knowledge as of the Effective Date, is not aware of any other
patent applications controlled by Stanford and filed as of the Effective Date or any invention disclosure documents submitted to Stanford’s Office of Technology Licensing on or before the Effective Date that are believed to be infringed by the

obligations to Alexo, including the payment of royalties specified in the Sublicense, to Stanford or its designee, if this Agreement is terminated. If the sublicensee is a spin-out from Alexo, Alexo must
guarantee the sublicensee’s performance with respect to the payment of Stanford’s share of Sublicense royalties. 


  

	 	4.4	 Litigation by Sublicensee. Any Sublicense must include the following clauses: 



 

	 	(A)	 In the event sublicensee brings an action seeking to invalidate any Licensed Patent:

Sublicense is signed [***]; and (iii) [***]% if the Sublicense is signed [***]. 


  

	 	4.7	 Royalty-Free Sublicenses. Subject to Section 7.10(c) (concerning instances where Alexo may as part
of an infringement or potential infringement dispute in which it believes it may be subject to infringement proceedings elect to as part of the resolution of such matter to enter into a royalty-free cross-licensing arrangement with a third party)
and Section 14.7(C), if Alexo pays all royalties due Stanford from a sublicensee’s Net Sales, Alexo may grant that sublicensee a royalty-free or non-cash:

royalties are due Stanford for Net Sales in year Y, Alexo will only need to pay Stanford an additional $5 for that year’s earned royalties. 


  

	 	(B)	 if Alexo pays Stanford a $10 maintenance payment for year Y, and according to Section 7.9 $3 in earned
royalties are due Stanford for Net Sales in year Y, Alexo will not need to pay Stanford any earned royalty payment for that year. Alexo will not be able to offset the remaining $7 against a future year’s earned royalties. 



 

	 	7.12	 Obligation to Pay Royalties. A royalty is due Stanford under this Agreement for any activity conducted
under the licenses granted. For convenience’s sake, the amount of that royalty is calculated using Net Sales. Nonetheless, if certain Licensed Products are [***], and those Licensed Products are [***], Alexo will pay Stanford an earned royalty
for its exercise of rights based on the Net Sales of those Licensed Products. 


  

	 	7.13	 No Escrow. Alexo shall not pay royalties into any escrow or other similar account.



  

	 	7.14	 Currency. Alexo will calculate the royalty on sales in currencies other than U.S. Dollars using the
appropriate foreign exchange rate for the currency quoted by the Wall Street Journal on the close of business on the last banking day of each calendar quarter. Alexo will make royalty payments to Stanford in U.S. Dollars. 



 

	 	7.15	 Non-U.S. Taxes. Alexo will pay all non-U.S. taxes related to royalty payments. These payments are not deductible from any payments due to Stanford. 


  

	 	7.16	 Interest. Any payments not made when due will bear interest at the lower of (a) the Prime Rate
published in the Wall Street Journal plus [***] basis points or (b) the maximum rate permitted by law. 


  

	8.	 ROYALTY REPORTS, PAYMENTS, AND ACCOUNTING 



 

	 	8.1	 Quarterly Earned Royalty Payment and Report. Beginning with the first sale of a Licensed Product by
Alexo or a sublicensee, Alexo will submit to Stanford a written report (even if there are no sales) and an earned royalty payment within [***] days after the end of each calendar quarter. This report will be in the form of Appendix B and will state
the number, description, and aggregate Net Sales of Licensed Product during the completed calendar quarter. The report will include an overview of the process and documents relied upon to permit Stanford to understand how the earned royalties are
calculated. With each report Alexo will include any earned royalty payment due Stanford for the completed calendar quarter (as calculated under Section 7.9). 



 

	 	8.2	 No Refund. In the event that a validity or non-infringement
challenge of a Licensed Patent brought by Alexo is successful, Alexo will have no right to recoup any royalties paid before or during the period challenge.

Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request. 




  
 Page 12 














	 	8.3	 Termination Report. Alexo will pay to Stanford all applicable royalties and submit to Stanford a written
report within [***] days after the license terminates. Alexo will continue to submit earned royalty payments and reports to Stanford after the license terminates, until all Licensed Products made or imported under the license have been sold.



  

	 	8.4	 Accounting. Alexo will maintain complete and accurate records showing sufficient information to permit
Stanford to determine the accuracy of royalty payments (including manufacture and sale), sublicensing revenue, and milestone achievement, in respect of a Licensed Product for [***] years from the date of sale of that unit of Licensed Product.
Records shall be kept in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practices or International Financial Reporting Standards, as applicable, and will include general-ledger records showing cash receipts and expenses, and records that include:
production records, customers invoices, and related information in sufficient detail to enable Stanford to determine the royalties and other amounts payable under this Agreement. 



 

	 	8.5	 Audit by Stanford. Alexo will allow an independent, certified public accountant selected by Stanford and
reasonably acceptable to Alexo, which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed to audit or inspect those records of Alexo relating to any amounts payable to Stanford under this Agreement for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of
the reports required under Section 8.1. Such inspection will be conducted during Alexo’s normal business hours at such place where such records are customarily kept, no more than [***]. Stanford agrees to hold in confidence all information
concerning royalty payments and reports, and all information learned in the course of any audit or inspection, except to the extent necessary for Stanford to reveal such information in order to enforce its rights under this Agreement or if
disclosure is required by law, regulation or judicial order. Any person or entity conducting such audit or inspection will agree in writing with Alexo to: (a) treat all records reviewed in the course of the audit or inspection as the
confidential information of Alexo; (b) disclose to Stanford only the amount and accuracy of payments reported and actually paid or otherwise payable under this Agreement and the specific details concerning any discrepancies.



  

	 	8.6	 Paying for Audit. Stanford will pay for any audit done under Section 8.5. But if the audit reveals
an underreporting of earned royalties due Stanford of [***]% or more for the period being audited, Alexo will pay the audit costs. 


  

	9.	 EXCLUSIONS AND NEGATION OF WARRANTIES 



 

	 	9.1	 Negation of Warranties. Stanford provides Alexo the rights granted in this Agreement AS IS and WITH ALL
FAULTS. Stanford makes no representations and extends no warranties of any kind, either express or implied. Among other things, Stanford disclaims any express or implied warranty: 



 

	 	(A)	 of merchantability, of fitness for a particular purpose; 



 

	 	(B)	 of non-infringement; or 



 

	 	(C)	 arising out of any course of dealing. 



  

	***	 Certain information in this agreement has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request. 




  
 Page 13 














	 	9.2	 No Representation of Licensed Patent. Alexo also acknowledges that Stanford does not represent or
warrant: 


  

	 	(A)	 the validity or scope of any Licensed Patents or Nonexclusive Licensed Patents; or 



 

	 	(B)	 that the exploitation of Licensed Patents or Nonexclusive Licensed Patents will be successful.



  

	10.	 INDEMNITY 


  

	 	10.1	 Indemnification. (A) Alexo will, and will require sublicensees to, indemnify, hold harmless, and
defend all Stanford Indemnitees against any claims, suits, losses, damages, costs, fees, and expenses of any kind (collectively. “Losses”) incurred by or imposed upon them in connection with any third party claims, suits or actions
resulting from arising out of or related to the exercise of any rights granted Alexo under this Agreement or the breach of this Agreement by Alexo, its sublicensees or affiliates. Alexo’s indemnification under this Section 10.1(A) shall
not apply to Losses that arise as a result of Stanford’s practice of the rights it reserves under Section 3.3. 



(B) HHMI and its trustees, officers, employees and agents (collectively, “HHMI Indemnitees”), will be indemnified, defended by
counsel acceptable to HHMI, and held harmless by Alexo from and against any claim, expense, damage, deficiency, liability, cost, loss or obligation of any kind or nature (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs
and expenses of defense), (collectively, “Claims”), based upon, arising out of, or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any Sublicense, including without limitation any cause of action relating to product liability. The previous
sentence will not apply to any Claim that is determined with finality by a court of competent jurisdiction to result solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an HHMI employee. 

(C) To receive the benefit of indemnification under Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(b), as applicable, Stanford Indemnitees or HHMI
Indemnitees must promptly notify Alexo in writing of any claim or suit brought against Stanford Indemnitees or HHMI Indemnitees in respect of which Stanford Indemnitees or HHMI Indemnitees intend(s) to invoke the provisions of this Article 10. In
the case of any HHMI Indemnitee, such notice shall be given reasonably promptly following actual receipt of written notice thereof by an officer or attorney of HHMI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delay or failure of any Stanford Indemnitee or
HHMI Indemnitee to give reasonably prompt notice to Alexo of any such claim or suit shall not affect the rights of such Stanford Indemnitee or HHMI Indemnitee under this Article 10 unless, and then solely to the extent that, such failure actually
and materially prejudices the rights of Alexo. To receive the benefit of indemnification under Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(b), as applicable, the Stanford Indemnitees or HI-MI Indemnitees, as
applicable, will provide reasonable cooperation (at Alexo’s expense) in the defense or settlement of such claim or suit; and tender to Alexo (and its insurer) full authority to defend or settle the claim or suit, subject to the limitation set
forth below with respect to settlement by Alexo. Alexo shall keep the Stanford Indemnitees or HHMI Indemnitees, as applicable, informed on a current basis of its defense of any claims or suits under this Article. Alexo will not settle any claim or
suit against Stanford Indemnitees or HHMI Indemnitees without Stanford’s or HHMI’s written consent, as applicable, where (1) such settlement would include any admission of liability or admission of wrong doing on the part of the
indemnified 

  

	***	 Certain information in this agreement has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request. 




  
 Page 14 













 
party, (2) such settlement would impose any restriction on Stanford Indemnitees or HHMI Indemnitees’ conduct of any of its activities, or (3) such settlement would not include an
unconditional release of Stanford Indemnitees or HHMI Indemnitees from all liability for claims that are the subject matter of the settled claim. Alexo has no obligation to indemnify Stanford Indemnitees’ or HHMI Indemnitees’ in connection
with any settlement made without Alexo’s written consent. 
  

	 	10.2	 No Indirect Liability. Stanford is not liable for any special, consequential, lost profit, expectation,
punitive or other indirect damages in connection with any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, whether grounded in tort (including negligence), strict liability, contract, or otherwise. 



 

	 	10.3	 Workers’ Compensation. Alexo will comply with all statutory workers’ compensation and
employers’ liability requirements for activities performed under this Agreement. 


  

	 	10.4	 Insurance. During the term of this Agreement, Alexo will maintain Comprehensive General Liability
Insurance, including Product Liability Insurance, at all times when any Licensed Product is being clinically tested with human subjects or commercially distributed or sold, with a reputable and financially secure insurance carrier or self-insurance
that is reasonably acceptable to Stanford to cover the activities of Alexo and its sublicensees. The insurance will provide minimum limits of liability of $[***] and will include all Stanford Indemnitees and HHMI Indemnitees as additional insureds.
Insurance must cover claims incurred, discovered, manifested, or made during or after the expiration of this Agreement and must be placed with carriers with ratings of at least A- as rated by A.M. Best. Within
[***] days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Alexo will furnish a Certificate of Insurance evidencing primary coverage and additional insured requirements. Alexo will provide to Stanford [***] days prior written notice of cancellation or
material change to this insurance coverage. Alexo will advise Stanford in writing that it maintains excess liability coverage (following form) over primary insurance for at least the minimum limits set forth above. All insurance of Alexo will be
primary coverage; insurance of Stanford Indemnitees and HHMI Indemnitees will be excess and noncontributory. 


  

	11.	 EXPORT 



Alexo and its affiliates and sublicensees shall comply with all United States laws and regulations controlling the export of licensed
commodities and technical data. (For the purpose of this paragraph, “licensed commodities” means any article, material or supply but does not include information; and “technical data” means tangible or intangible technical
information that is subject to U.S. export regulations, including blueprints, plans, diagrams, models, formulae, tables, engineering designs and specifications, manuals and instructions.) These laws and regulations may include, but are not limited
to, the Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR 730-774), the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (22 CFR 120-130) and the various economic sanctions regulations
administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (31 CFR 500-600). 
 Among other things, these
laws and regulations prohibit or require a license for the export or retransfer of certain commodities and technical data to specified countries, entities and persons. Alexo hereby gives written assurance that it will comply with, and will cause its
affiliates and sublicensees

Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request.

to comply with all United States export control laws and regulations, that it bears sole responsibility for any violation of such laws and regulations by itself or its affiliates or sublicensees,
and that it will indemnify, defend and hold Stanford and HHMI harmless for the consequences of any such violation. 
  

	12.	 MARKING 



Before any Licensed Patent issues, Alexo will mark Licensed Product with the words “Patent Pending.” Otherwise, Alexo will mark
Licensed Product with the number of any issued Licensed Patent. 
  

	13.	 STANFORD AND HHMI NAMES AND MARKS 



Alexo will not use (i) Stanford’s or HHMI’ s name or other trademarks, (ii) the name or trademarks of any organization
related to Stanford or HHMI, or (iii) the name of any Stanford or HHMI faculty member, employee, student or volunteer without the prior written consent of the party (Stanford or HHMI as the case may be) whose name or trademark is being used.
Permission may be withheld at Stanford’s or HHMI’ s sole discretion. This prohibition includes, but is not limited to, use in press releases, advertising, marketing materials, other promotional materials, presentations, case studies,
reports, websites, application or software interfaces, and other electronic media. 
  

	14.	 PROSECUTION AND PROTECTION OF PATENTS 



 

	 	14.1	 Patent Prosecution. 



Stanford will control, in consultation with Alexo, the preparation and prosecution of all patent applications and the maintenance of all
patents related to Licensed Patents using independent patent counsel mutually acceptable to each of Stanford and Alexo. Patent counsel will directly notify Alexo and provide Alexo copies of any official communications from United States and foreign
patent offices relating to prosecution of the Licensed Patents, as well as copies of relevant communications to the various patent offices so that Alexo may be informed and apprised of the continuing prosecution of Licensed Patents. Alexo will have
reasonable opportunities to participate in key decisions affecting filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents, including, without limitation, opportunity to review and provide comment on amendments and responses in the course of the
prosecution of Licensed Patents. Stanford will consider in good faith Alexo’s reasonable suggestions regarding said prosecution. Stanford will use reasonable efforts to amend any patent application to include claims reasonably requested by
Alexo in order to cover a Licensed Product. Any differences between Alexo and Stanford with respect to preparation, filing, prosecution, issuance and maintenance matters will be discussed and resolved to their mutual satisfaction; provided,
that if any disagreement regards solely the costs associated with a particular proposed action, the requirement that the parties mutually agree upon resolution of the matter shall not apply. No case will be abandoned without giving Alexo at least
[***] days notice and opportunity to pursue the application. Alexo will reimburse Stanford upon receipt of invoice for all documented expenses related to prosecution of the Licensed Patents upon receipt of invoice incurred in connection with the
filing and prosecution of the patent applications and maintenance of the patents. If Alexo is not interested in filing patent applications covering Licensed Patents in a particular jurisdiction and Stanford determines that it wishes to file patent
applications in said jurisdiction, Stanford may do so at its expense and Alexo’s license shall not include rights in such jurisdiction.

reasonably apprised of all developments in the suit, and will seek Stanford’s input and approval on any substantive submissions or positions taken in the litigation regarding the scope, validity and enforceability of the Licensed Patent. Alexo
will not prosecute, settle or otherwise compromise any such suit in a manner that adversely affects Stanford’s interests without Stanford’s prior written consent. Stanford may be named as a party only if: 



 

	 	(A)	 Alexo’s and Stanford’s respective counsel recommend that such action is necessary in their reasonable
opinion to achieve standing; 



  

	***	 Certain information in this agreement has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request. 




  
 Page 17 














	 	(B)	 Stanford is not the first named party in the action; and 



 

	 	(C)	 the pleadings and any public statements about the action state that Alexo is pursuing the action and that Alexo
has the right to join Stanford as a party. 


  

	 	14.7	 Recovery. If Alexo sues under Section 14.6, then any recovery in excess of any unrecovered
litigation costs and fees will be shared with Stanford as follows:

	 	(1)	 is delinquent on any report or payment; 



 

	 	(2)	 is not diligently developing and commercializing Licensed Product with respect to a market or indication and a
third party seeks rights with respect to such indication or market and Alexo does not within [***] either (A) [***] or (B) [***]; 


  

	 	(3)	 misses a milestone described in Appendix A; 



 

	 	(4)	 is in breach of any provision of this Agreement; or

into or exercisable for Parent’s equity securities) for cash (or in satisfaction of debt issued for cash) having its final closing held on or after the date of this Agreement, Stanford may purchase for cash up to [***]% of the securities issued
in such offering. This right will expire following the [***] round of bona fide equity investment in Parent from a single investor or group of investors that includes at least one venture capital, professional angel, corporate or other similar
institutional investor (other than Stanford) and that either (i) [***] or (ii) [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, any securities Stanford may acquire or have the right to acquire under Sections 7.2 and 7.3 shall not reduce or increase the number of

(or securities convertible into or exercisable for Parent’s equity securities) in exchange for cash (or in satisfaction of debt issued for cash) after the offering described in Section 7.4, Stanford may purchase for cash that number of the
securities issued in such offering as is necessary for Stanford to maintain its pro rata ownership interest in Parent Preferred Shares on a Fully-Diluted Basis. For the avoidance of doubt: (i) any securities Stanford may acquire or have the
right to acquire under Section 7.3 shall not reduce or increase the number of securities Stanford may purchase under this Section 7.5; (ii) if both Section 7.4 and this Section 7.5 apply to an offering, the provision granting
Stanford the superior rights will govern; and (iii) Stanford shall not be obligated to purchase under Section 7.4 or 7.5 any Parent securities it has the right to acquire under Section 7.3. This participation right will expire [***].



  

	7.6	 Purchase Terms and Procedures; Financial Information; Notices. 



 

	 	(A)	 In any offering subject to Section 7.4 or 7.5: 



 

	 	(1)	 Parent will give Stanford notice of the terms of the offering, including: (i) the names of the investors,
the allocation of shares among them and the total amounts to be invested by each of them in such offering; (ii) pre- and post-(projected) financing capitalization table; (iii) investor presentation
(if available); (iv) an introduction to the lead investor in such offering for the purpose of discussing the lead investor’s due diligence process; and (v) such other documents and information as Stanford may reasonably request for the
purpose of making an investment decision or verifying the number of shares it is entitled to purchase in such offering; 


  

	 	(2)	 Stanford’s purchase right shall be on the same terms and conditions as the other investors in such
offering and Stanford shall enter into any necessary agreement with Parent and such other investors for the purpose of implementing the provisions of Sections 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6, except that [***]; 



 

	 	(3)	 Stanford may elect to exercise its right of purchase, in whole or in part, by notice given to Parent within 15
Stanford business days (i.e., days other than Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays or other days on which Stanford is officially closed) after receipt of Parent’s notice; and 



  

	***	 Certain information in this agreement has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request. 




  
 Page 28 














	 	(4)	 If Stanford elects not to purchase, or fails to give an election notice within such period, Stanford’s
purchase right will not apply to the offering if (and only if and to the extent) it is consummated within [***] on the same or less favorable (to the investor) terms as stated in Parent’s notice to Stanford. 



 

	 	(B)	 Stanford’s rights under Sections 7.4 and 7.5 will not apply to: (1) Ordinary Shares issued or
issuable as a dividend or other distribution on Preferred Shares; (2) Ordinary Shares issued or issuable by reason of a dividend or other distribution on Ordinary Shares (3) Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon conversion
of shares of Preferred Shares; (4) Ordinary Shares or options or restricted stock awards or other rights therefore issued or issuable to directors, officers, employees or consultants of Parent in consideration for their service to Parent
pursuant to any written agreement, plan or arrangement (including, without limitation, any stock option plan, stock purchase plan, stock purchase agreement or subscription agreement) approved by the Parent Board of Directors, including a majority of
those Directors designated by holders of Preferred Shares; (5) securities issued to the public in a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended; (6) securities issued pursuant to the acquisition by the Parent of another corporation or other entity by consolidation, corporate reorganizations, or merger, or purchase of all or substantially all of the assets of such
corporation or other entity as approved by the Parent Board of Directors, including a majority of those Directors designated by the holders of Series A Preferred; (7) securities issued in connection with equipment leasing, real estate,
bank financing or similar transactions approved by the Parent Board of Directors, including a majority of those Directors designated by the holders of the Preferred Shares; and (8) any securities issued or issuable upon conversion,
exercise or exchange of any other securities that are covered by (1)-(7). 


  

	 	(C)	 The rights granted in Sections 7.4 and 7.5 will terminate (in addition to any earlier termination pursuant to
their terms): (i) immediately before the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering of Parent’s Ordinary Shares, (ii) upon the conversion of all shares of Preferred Shares into Ordinary Shares, or (iii) upon the closing
of a sale or change of control of the Parent as described in Section 16.1(A), regardless of whether such a sale or change of control occurs through an asset sale, stock sale, merger or other combination; provided that [***], then this
Section 7.7(C)(iii) shall also apply upon the closing of a sale or change of control of Parent as described in Section 16.1(B). 


  

	 	(D)	 Parent shall furnish to Stanford, at the same time it provides such information to holders of the its Preferred
Shares, Parent’s annual financial statements and annual operating plan, including an annual report of the holders of Parent’s capital stock and other securities, and such other information as Stanford may reasonably request from time to
time for the purpose of valuing its interest in Parent. 


  

	 	(E)	 Notwithstanding any notice provision in this Agreement to the contrary, any notice given under this Agreement
that refers or relates to any of Section 7.3 through and including Section 7.6 shall be copied concurrently to pvfnotices@stanford.edu; provided, however, that delivery of the copy will not by itself constitute notice for any purpose under
this Agreement.
