	 	10.	Patent Infringement. 

 10.1. It is recognized that manufacture, sale or use of Licensed
Products and performance of Licensed Assays may utilize patented technology of third parties. Should that occur, as between OXFORD IMMUNOTEC and PHRI, securing rights thereunder or otherwise dealing with third-party patent owners is the sole
responsibility of OXFORD IMMUNOTEC. 
 10.2. OXFORD IMMUNOTEC agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates nor their distributors will abet
infringement of PHRI Patent Rights by continuing to sell Licensed Products to a customer that OXFORD IMMUNOTEC believes to be, or a customer for which PHRI provides to OXFORD IMMUNOTEC notice and reasonable satisfactory evidence that such customer
is, using the Licensed Products outside the Licensed Field of IVD. OXFORD IMMUNOTEC shall not be in breach of this Agreement if it, an Affiliate or a distributor unknowingly sells Licensed Products to a third party who uses said products in any
manner other than in compliance with the label license statement accompanying such product. 
  

	 	11.	Patent Enforcement 

 11.1. OXFORD INIMUNOTEC is aware that PHRI has licensed The Foundation for
Innovative New Diagnostics and ImmPORT Therapeutics, Inc. under PHRI Patent Rights for products and assays other than Licensed Products and Licensed Assays in agreements giving the licensees certain rights regarding the enforcement of PHRI Patent
Rights. 
 11.2. Subject to third-party rights under Section 11.1, PHRI shall have the first right to enforce PHRI Patent Rights, and
OXFORD IMMUNOTEC shall have a secondary right. If OXFORD IMMUNOTEC becomes aware of Substantial infringement of PHRI Patent Rights in any country in the Territory by a product or process that, if sold by OXFORD IMMUNOTEC


  
 -14-

REQUEST. REDACTED MATERIAL IS MARKED WITH [***] AND HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. 
  

 
would be a Licensed Product or Licensed Assay in the Licensed Field of IVD (“Substantial” meaning a sales volume of [***]% of the volume of competing Licensed Products or Licensed
Assays of OXFORD IMMUNOTEC and/or sublicensees), OXFORD IMMUNOTEC shall have the right to give PHRI written notice thereof. The notice shall identify the infringer, the infringing product or assay and the infringing sales level, and shall include
reasonable evidence of infringement and sales level. Upon receipt of such notice, PHRI shall have 120 days in which to eliminate the infringement or commence suit for infringement. If PHRI does neither, OXFORD IMMUNOTEC shall have the option
(a) to commence suit (in PHRI’s name, if necessary) or (b) to take a [***] ([***]%) royalty reduction for its sales in that country of directly competing Licensed Products or Licensed Assays until such time as such Substantial
infringement is eliminated or PHRI commences suit against the infringer. 
 11.3. If PHRI brings a suit under Section 11.2, PHRI shall
control the litigation at PHRI’s expense, and OXFORD IMMUNOTEC shall cooperate with PHRI in the suit at OXFORD IMMUNOTEC’s expense. If OXFORD IMMUNOTEC brings a suit under Section 11.2, OXFORD IMMUNOTEC shall control the litigation at
OXFORD IMMUNOTEC’s expense, and PHRI shall cooperate with OXFORD IMMUNOTEC at PHRI’s expense. Neither party shall be entitled to settle any such suit without the approval of the other, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. 

11.4. Any litigation recovery shall first be applied to reimburse the Parties, pro rata, for their litigation expenses, and any remainder
shall be divided, with [***]% going to the Party that prosecutes the suit.

 11.5. In the event that PHRI elects not to take action to eliminate the infringement or
commence suit for infringement and the infringement is an infringement of PHRI Patent Rights in any country in the Territory by a product or process that, if sold by OXFORD IMMUNOTEC would be a Licensed Product or Licensed Assay in the Licensed
Field of IVD but that is not Substantial (as defined in Section 11.2 above), OXFORD IMMUNOTEC may at its sole discretion elect to eliminate the infringement or commence suit for infringement. OXFORD IMMUNOTEC will indemnify and hold PHRI
harmless for all expenses incurred by PHRI in connection with any such proceeding. 
  

	 	12.	Term and Termination. 

 12.1. Term. The rights and immunities granted in this
Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and expire upon the expiration of the last-to-expire of the patents included within PHRI Patent Rights or the abandonment of all patent applications within PHRI Patent Rights.

to pay its obligations as they mature; said grant being subject to automatic reinstatement nunc pro tunc if any such matter is removed within ninety (90) days. 


 

	 	(d)	Upon OXFORD IMMUNOTEC’S breach or default of a material term of this Agreement, PHRI may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ written notice, which shall become effective at the end of the

preceding expiration or preceding termination of this Agreement shall survive such expiration or termination. Further, termination pursuant to any subsection of Section 12.3 shall not entitle OXFORD IMMUNOTEC to forgiveness or return of any
portion of any fee already due or paid.

that year shall be reduced by the fraction of the year remaining after the date of termination.
