EXCLUSIVE PATENT LICENSE AGREEMENT


 


THIS SECOND AMENDED
AND RESTATED AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is dated and effective as of the date of last signature, and is made by and
between the University of Washington, a public institution of higher education and an agency of the state of Washington (the "University"),
and PhaseRx, Inc., incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware (the "Company"), collectively the "Parties".  This
Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Amended and Restated Exclusive Patent License Agreement dated and effective as
of January 20, 2016 between University and Company, which amends and restates in its entirety the Exclusive Patent Agreement dated
and effective as of December 6, 2006 (the "Effective Date") between University and Company, as previously amended.


 


Purpose


 


The University and
University of Massachusetts ("UMass") own the right to license to others certain rights to the Licensed Patents, as that
term is defined and used in this Agreement.  University and UMass have entered into an interinstitutional agreement dated
May 14, 2005 whereby University will manage their joint interests in the Licensed Patents on behalf of both institutions.  University
will provide an unredacted copy of this Agreement to UMass.  


 


The Company co-owns
certain inventions claimed in the Licensed Patents and desires that the University grant it a license to use, develop, and commercialize
the inventions claimed in the Licensed Patents to the extent they are owned or co-owned by the University.  The University
is willing to grant such a license on the terms set forth below.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree
that:


 


1.             Definitions.  For
purposes of interpreting this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them below in this
Article:


 


1.1.          "Affiliate"
means any entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with a Party.  An entity shall be regarded
as in control of another entity for purposes of this definition if it owns or controls more than ninety percent (90%) of the shares
of the subject entity entitled to vote in the election of directors (or, in the case of an entity that is not a corporation, for
the election of the corresponding managing authority).


 


1.2.          "Confidential
Information" means any information or materials (biological, chemical, or otherwise) not generally known to the public, including
any information comprised by those materials, in each case to the extent disclosed by one Party to the other Party in writing and
marked "Confidential" (or disclosed orally and confirmed in writing as confidential within thirty (30) days following
such disclosure), and including without limitation, non-public Licensed Technology.

THE
COMPANY HAS REQUESTED AN ORDER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “COMMISSION”) PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED, GRANTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT TO SELECTED PORTIONS. ACCORDINGLY, THE CONFIDENTIAL
PORTIONS HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT, AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS ARE INDICATED
IN THIS EXHIBIT WITH “*****”.


 


1.3.          "Event
of Force Majeure" means an unforeseeable act that wholly prevents a Party from performing one or more of its material duties
under this Agreement and that was outside of the reasonable control of the Party.  An Event of Force Majeure includes
acts of war or of God, insurrection and riot, and labor strikes.  An Event of Force Majeure shall not mean a Party's
inability to obtain a Third Party's consent to any act or omission.


 


1.4           "Field
of Use" means drug delivery, human therapeutics, human prophylactics and research reagents used for the in vitro and in vivo
delivery and/or uptake of any entity including, but not limited to, polymers, particles, nucleic acids, proteins, peptides and/or
other molecules into cells, tissues, or organs.  The Field of Use excludes all other uses including diagnostics and in
vitro molecular assays and separations for diagnostic and/or research reagent applications.


 


1.5.          "Know-How"
means technical facts, data, or advice, oral or written (in the form of information contained in patents and patent applications,
reports, letters, drawings, specifications, testing procedures, training and operational manuals, bills of materials, photographs
and related materials) and/or any tangible materials not set forth in the Licensed Technology, together with University's proprietary
rights in the same, in each case that: (i) were developed in the laboratory of Patrick Stayton or Allan Hoffman at the University
of Washington; (ii) relates to the Licensed Technology in existence as of the Effective Date at the time of this Agreement; (iii)
were developed before the Effective Date; (iv) are owned by and in the possession of University; and (v) are not covered by rights
to any Third Party that would prevent delivery to the Company.


 


1.6.          "Licensed
Patents" means the patents and patent applications described in Section A1.6 of attached Exhibit A.  Licensed
Patents also include any further related patent issued during the term of this Agreement by the United States Patent and Trademark
Office or any like foreign body with respect to a patent application that is part of Licensed Patents, as well as any reissues,
reexaminations, continuations, continuations-in-part (but only those claims in such continuations-in-part that are sufficiently
supported by a patent application included in Exhibit A so as to be entitled to the benefit of a priority date of such supporting
patent application), divisionals, substitutions and extensions of Licensed Patents.  "Licensed Patents" shall
also include any patents or patent applications arising from currently unpatented University Disclosures as provided in Section
A1.8 of attached Exhibit A.

THE
COMPANY HAS REQUESTED AN ORDER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “COMMISSION”) PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED, GRANTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT TO SELECTED PORTIONS. ACCORDINGLY, THE CONFIDENTIAL
PORTIONS HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT, AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS ARE INDICATED
IN THIS EXHIBIT WITH “*****”.


 


1.7.          "Licensed
Product" means any product or good in the Field of Use that is made by, made for, sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed
of by the Company or its Sublicensees during the term of this Agreement and the Post-termination Period and that, but for the granting
of the rights set forth in this Agreement, would infringe (including under the doctrine of equivalents) one or more Valid Claims
in a Licensed Patent, including any Valid Claims in pending patent applications, or any product or good that is made using a process
or machine that is covered by a Valid Claim in a Licensed Patent including patent applications.  Licensed Product includes
Licensed Therapeutic Products.  For clarity, it is understood and agreed that a Valid Claim in a pending patent application
will be deemed to have been infringed for purposes of this definition if it would have been infringed were it to have been issued
at the time of the activity.  The term "Licensed Product" also means any service provided by Company or its
Sublicensees that incorporates all or any portion of a product that would be a Licensed Product.  Unless the Parties
otherwise agree in writing, the term Licensed Product refers only to products and goods manufactured, made, sold, transferred,
or otherwise disposed of during the term of this Agreement.


 


1.8.          "Licensed
Technology" means collectively the inventions claimed in each Licensed Patent, including any patents or patent applications
arising from currently unpatented University Disclosures listed in Section A1.8 of attached Exhibit A of this Agreement
as of the Effective Date of this Agreement.


 


1.9.          "Material
Sublicensee" means a Sublicensee to whom Company has granted a right to (i) make and sell any Licensed Product or (ii) sell
any Licensed Product, provided that such Sublicensee is responsible for marketing of such Licensed Product within its sales territory.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any Sublicensee to whom Company has granted a right of first negotiation, option or similar right that would, if
exercised, result in such Sublicensee satisfying the criteria set forth in the preceding sentence, shall be deemed a Material Sublicensee
for purposes of Sections 1.22, 3.1.2, 5.3, 8.3.2, and 9.5.1 of the Agreement prior to such exercise for so long as such right of
first negotiation, option or similar right remains exercisable by such Sublicensee.

THE
COMPANY HAS REQUESTED AN ORDER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “COMMISSION”) PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED, GRANTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT TO SELECTED PORTIONS. ACCORDINGLY, THE CONFIDENTIAL
PORTIONS HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT, AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS ARE INDICATED
IN THIS EXHIBIT WITH “*****”.


 


1.10.        "Net Sales" means the gross amount invoiced
for sales, leases, and other dispositions of Licensed Products by Company or its Sublicensees, less (i) all trade, quantity, and
cash discounts, including credits provided based on sales of Licensed Products, refunds or government rebates, in each case actually
granted, (ii) all credits and allowances actually granted due to rejections, returns, billing errors, chargebacks and retroactive
price reductions, (iii) packaging, handling fees and prepaid freight, in each case to the extent separately invoiced, and (iv)
duties, excise, sale and use taxes, and other governmental charges (including value added taxes) in each case to the extent actually
incurred and not reimbursed.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that all collection of outstanding debt by Company
or Sublicensee, or on behalf of Company or Sublicensee, is attributed to the specific products or service for which such debt was
incurred such that royalties due can be and are calculated for such products or services, then Net Sales will be calculated based
upon gross amounts received by Company rather than on gross amounts invoiced.  Where, in addition to the Licensed Product,
other active products or active processes are sold in combination with Licensed Product as a single unit (combination product),
the Net Sale shall be determined by multiplying the gross invoiced amounts for each such combination product by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the established market price for the Licensed Products contained in the combination product and the
denominator of which shall be the sum of the established market price for the Licensed Products plus the established market price
of the other active components contained in the combination products. When such separate market prices are not established in any
particular country, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to determine a fair and equitable method of calculating Net Sale
in that country for the combination product in question.  Net Sales will not include transfers made between Company and
any Sublicensee for resale to Third Parties, but shall include resale to such Third Parties. In the event that Company transfers
Licensed Products to an Affiliate or Sublicensee and such Licensed Product is subsequently used by such Affiliate or Sublicensee
for a commercial purpose including internal research and development unrelated to the development of Licensed Products, the "Net
Sales Price" for such transferred units of Licensed Product for purposes of this Agreement shall be equal to the price the
Company charges non-Affiliate Third Parties for the Licensed Product or if the Company does not offer to sell the Licensed Product
to the public, the price charged by the Company for a product of similar kind, quality, and quantity. For purposes of clarity,
it is understood and agreed that Net Sale will not include amounts received for Licensed Products used in clinical trials when
supplied at a substantially discounted price, used for research related to the development of Licensed Products where no sale occurs,
supplied as commercial samples, or as charitable or humanitarian donations when supplied without charge.


 


1.11.        "Payment"
means a payment to be made by the Company to the University specified in Section 6.1 of this Agreement and described in Section
A6.1 of attached Exhibit A.


 


1.12.        "Performance
Milestone" means an act or event specified in Section 5.1 of this Agreement and described in Section A5.1 of attached Exhibit
A.


 


1.13.        "Post-termination
Period" means the one hundred eighty (180) day period commencing on the date of termination of this Agreement.


 


1.14         "Qualified
Funding" means Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00 US) in funding, such funding to include income from all sources, including
but not limited to grants, research agreements, private investments corporate and/or venture financing, sublicensing revenue, and
gross income from product sales.


 


1.15         "Seed
Funding" means Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00 US) in funding, such funding to include income from all sources,
including but not limited to grants, research agreements, private investments corporate and/or venture financing, sublicensing
revenue, and gross income from product sales.


 


1.16         "Sublicense"
means the grant by Company to a Third Party of any license, option, first right to negotiate or other right under the Licensed
Patent and/or Licensed Technology, in whole or in part.

1.17         "Sublicensee"
means a Third Party, including an Affiliate, holding a Sublicense under the Licensed Patent and/or Licensed Technology. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, "Sublicensee" shall specifically exclude Distributors.


 


1.18         "Sublicensing
Consideration" means any and all consideration, including but not limited to upfront fees, milestone payments, maintenance
fees, non-cash consideration, and premiums over Fair Market Value of stock, but excluding running royalties (see below Section
6.1), received by Company or by Sublicensees who are Affiliates, from non-Affiliate Sublicensees in consideration for the grant
of a Sublicense under this Agreement.  For avoidance of doubt, Sublicensing Consideration shall not include (i) proceeds
reasonably attributable to bona fide debt financing or the sale of securities (other than any premiums over Fair Market Value),
and (ii) payments to the Company or its Affiliate by such Sublicensees for the performance of bona fide product development work,
research work, clinical studies and the pursuit of regulatory approvals, in each case to the extent such research, development
and regulatory activities are performed pursuant to and as supported by an express agreement, and such payments are at reasonable
and customary fully-burdened rates.  "Fair Market Value" means the average price that the security in question
is publicly trading at for twenty (20) days prior to the announcement of its purchase by the Sublicensees, or, if the security
is not publicly traded, the value of such stock as determined in good faith by board of directors of the Company.


 


1.19.         "Territory"
means worldwide.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that the inventions disclosed in University
disclosure 7279 (listed as UW Docket No. 43581 in Section A1.6 of attached Exhibit A) were funded through a grant from the Bill
and Melinda Gates Foundation (the "Grant"), and that accordingly, with respect to University disclosure 7279, and any
resultant patents based upon such disclosure, "Territory" shall be limited to the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan,
the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Portugal, Greece, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway,
Sweden and Finland, and such other countries throughout the world with respect to which University is not precluded, under obligations
resulting from the Grant, from granting to Company a license in the Field of Use.


 


1.20         "Third
Party" means all individuals or entities other than University and Company.


 


1.21         "Valid
Claim" means the claims of unexpired issued patents that have not been held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction from which no appeal can be taken.  Valid Claim will also include the claims of pending patent applications,
provided such claims have not been pending for more than five (5) years following the Effective Date of this Agreement.

1.22         "Distributor"
means a Third Party to whom Company, or its Material Sublicensees have granted rights solely to resell Licensed Product, and from
whom Company, its Affiliates and their Material Sublicensees receive no further consideration for such sale of Licensed Products
(including but not limited to royalties and/or commissions) beyond the initial transfer price received upon such sale to such Third
Party.  Distributor specifically excludes any Third Party which controls, is controlled by or is under common control
with Company, its Affiliates or their Material Sublicensees.  Control for purposes of this Section 1.22 means an entity
that owns or controls more than fifty percent (50%) of the shares of the subject entity entitled to vote in the election of directors
or, in the case of an entity that is not a corporation, for the election of the corresponding managing authority.


 


1.23         "Licensed
Therapeutic Products" means Licensed Products with applications in drug delivery, human therapeutics, human prophylactics
and research reagents used for the in vitro and in vivo delivery and/or uptake of any entity including, but not limited to, polymers,
particles, nucleic acids, proteins, peptides and/or other molecules into cells, tissues, or organs.


 


2.             Term.     The
term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier as provided below in Article 8, this
Agreement shall expire on the date on which no Licensed Patent is valid and subsisting or pending in any country in the Territory.  Following
expiration of this agreement due to expiration of all Licensed Patents (but not for an earlier termination), University agrees
that Company's non-exclusive license under the Know-How shall survive on a fully paid-up basis.


 


3.             Grant
of License.


 


3.1.          The
Company's Rights.


 


3.1.1.          Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the University hereby grants to the Company, and the Company hereby accepts, an
exclusive license under the Licensed Patents and Licensed Technology, and a non-exclusive license under the Know-How, in each case
to (i) make, use, offer to sell or sell, offer to lease or lease, import, or otherwise offer to dispose or dispose of Licensed
Products, (ii) practice any method, process or procedure, and (iii) otherwise exploit the Licensed Patents, Licensed Technology
and Know-How; and to have any of the foregoing performed on its behalf by a Third Party, in each of cases (i), (ii) and (iii) above
to be solely within the Field of Use and in the Territory.  For purposes of clarity, no provision of this Agreement shall
be construed to grant the Company, by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any rights other than the rights expressly granted it
in this Agreement, to the Licensed Technology, a Licensed Patent, or to any other University-owned technology, patent applications,
or issued patents.

THE
COMPANY HAS REQUESTED AN ORDER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “COMMISSION”) PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED, GRANTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT TO SELECTED PORTIONS. ACCORDINGLY, THE CONFIDENTIAL
PORTIONS HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT, AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS ARE INDICATED
IN THIS EXHIBIT WITH “*****”.


 


3.1.2.          Company
and Material Sublicensees shall have the right, exercisable from time to time during the term of this Agreement, to Sublicense
their rights under this Agreement.  The Company shall not enter into such agreement with any Sublicensee if the terms
of the agreement are inconsistent in any respect with the terms of this Agreement including without limitation Sections 5.2, 5.4,
6.3, 8.3, 9.5, 10.4, 11.3 and 6.4.2 of this Agreement.  Company will provide University copies of any Sublicense agreement
entered into with a Material Sublicensee within thirty (30) days of its execution, provided that University agrees that Company
may redact from any such Sublicense agreement any financial or other terms completely unrelated to the sublicensing of Licensed
Patents and Licensed Technology, provided that Company agrees to provide University with a general description of the type and
nature of the materials that have been redacted from the agreement.  Any term in a Sublicense agreement required for
University to assess the value of compensation provided in return for such Sublicense may not be redacted, even if such term involves
intellectual property that is not University intellectual property.  If University disputes the right of the Company
to make a redaction, University shall have the right to view an unredacted copy of such Sublicense to verify that such term is
completely unrelated to University intellectual property, but shall not keep a copy of such unredacted Sublicense.  Company
is not required to provide copies of any Sublicenses entered into with Sublicensees that are not Material Sublicensees, provided
that Company includes the names of such Sublicensees, and a general description of the nature of each such Sublicense in its reports
submitted to University pursuant to Sections 5.3 and 6.3, and provided that Company will permit University to view a copy of any
such Sublicense within thirty (30) days of request from University, provided further that University shall not keep a copy of such
Sublicense.  Any Sublicense attempted to be made or made in violation of this Section shall be void and shall constitute
an event of default under Section 8.1.1 of this Agreement.


 


3.1.3.          The
Company, without the prior approval of the University, may assign all, but no less than all, its rights and delegate all its duties
under this Agreement to another if the assignment is made (i) to an Affiliate, or (ii) as a part of and in connection with (A)
the sale by the Company to a purchaser of all or substantially all of its assets or business to which this Agreement relates, (B)
the sale, transfer, or exchange by the shareholders, partners, or equity owners of the Company of a majority interest in the Company
to a single purchaser, or (C) the merger of the Company into another corporation or other business entity.  Company shall
provide University with written notice of the assignment within thirty (30) days of the effective date of such assignment.  Any
assignment attempted to be made or made in violation of this Section shall be void and shall, without further act, cause the immediate
termination of this Agreement.  Any assignment or delegation shall not release the assigning or delegating Party from
its obligations under this Agreement accruing prior to such assignment, grant of a Sublicense, or delegation without the express
written consent of the University.


 


3.2.          The
United States Government's Rights.  The University acknowledges that, to the best of its knowledge, the Licensed
Technology was funded, in whole or in part, by the federal government of the United States of America. The Parties acknowledge
and agree that the federal government of the United States of America has certain rights in and to any government funded Licensed
Technology as those rights are described in Chapter 18, Title 35 of the United States Code and accompanying regulations, including
Part 401, Chapter 37 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and that the Parties' rights and obligations under this Agreement to any
government-funded Licensed Technology, including the grant of license set forth above in Section 3.1.1, are subject to the applicable
terms of the aforementioned United States laws.

PORTIONS HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT, AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS ARE INDICATED

3.3.          The
University's Rights. The University and UMass retain an irrevocable, nonexclusive license to make, have made, and use products,
processes, and other subject matter covered by the Licensed Patents or the Licensed Technology for research, medical, instructional,
or any other academic purpose.  Expressly included within this University and UMass reservation of rights is the right
(i) to use the Licensed Patents and/or Licensed Technology in sponsored research or collaborative research with any Third Party,
and (ii) to grant material transfer agreements or licenses for academic purposes to non-profit entities. University and UMass also
have the right to publish any information included in the Licensed Patents, Licensed Technology, Know-How or any other information
that may result from University's research.


 


3.4           Transfer
of Know-How.  Subject to the University approval, Company may request validation amounts of materials related to
the practice of Licensed Patents to be supplied by University through the lab of either Dr. Stayton or Dr. Hoffman. Such request
shall detail specific materials, specific amounts, and purpose of such transfer. Company acknowledges that University approval
of such transfer of such material may require additional approvals or conflict of interest reviews.  Approval will be
on a case by case basis. Following such approval, material will be transferred using the material transfer agreement attached as
Exhibit C, or as otherwise mutually agreed to between the Parties.


 


3.5           Option.
The University hereby grants Company, for Licensed Patents and Licensed Technology included in University Ref# 2744 (listed
as UW Docket No. 41887 in Section A1.6 of attached Exhibit A), which includes all patents and applications in Licensed
Patents as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, an exclusive fully paid-up option ("Option") to include within
this Agreement all fields of use outside the Field of Use, including for human diagnostic applications ("Additional
Field of Use").  The Option shall be for [****] from the Effective Date of this Agreement, with the ability to
extend the Option for [****] upon written agreement of both Parties ("Option Term").  Company's license
in such Additional Field of Use shall be subject to a reasonable development plan and diligence plan for such Additional
Field of Use, to be supplied following the exercise of such Option and concurrent with the negotiation of terms for Company's
license to such Additional Field of Use. Following exercise of Company's Option under this Agreement, the Parties shall
negotiate in good faith for up to [****] days to execute a license on commercially reasonable terms for such Additional Field
of Use.  Following the expiration of this [****] day period, if no license is signed for the Additional Field of
Use between the University and Company, the University shall be free to license its rights in the Additional Field of Use
elsewhere at its sole discretion, and shall have no further obligations to Company with respect to this Option.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the University shall perpetually retain the right to grant non-exclusive licenses under the
Licensed Patents in the Additional Field of Use for the development of diagnostic products for use in the developing world
consistent with any University obligations pursuant to funding from The Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation.  For avoidance of doubt, this Option is not for Licensed Technology, or any future patents or patent
applications included in University Ref# 7279, 7387 or 7568 (listed as UW Docket Nos. 43581, 43721, and 43939, respectively,
in Section A1.6 or A1.8 of attached Exhibit A).

4.             Applications and Patents.


 


4.1.          Cost
Reimbursement. The Company shall pay, or reimburse the University for paying, all reasonable and necessary costs (including
attorneys' and application fees) incurred prior to, on, or after the Effective Date to apply for, prosecute, enforce, and maintain
each Licensed Patent, including patent applications, as provided in attached Section A4.1 of attached Exhibit A, or any patents
or patent applications arising from currently unpatented University Disclosures as provided in Section A1.8 of attached Exhibit
A, including the costs of interferences, oppositions, re-examinations, and patent litigation. Subject to terms set forth in Section
A4.1, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the University's invoice for reimbursable expenses, the Company shall deliver to
the University payment in the amount of such invoice.  The Parties acknowledge that the amount of such expenses incurred
prior to the Effective Date is One Hundred Twenty Eight Thousand Five Hundred Eighteen and 23/100 dollars ($128,518.23 US).  At
no point during the term of this Agreement shall University be under any obligation to incur any patent expenses for which Company
is not currently reimbursing University.  University may, at its discretion, require advance payment for any patent activities
requested by Company prior to issuing instructions to University patent counsel to undertake such activities.  Under
no circumstances shall University be obligated to instruct counsel to undertake activities for which advanced payment has been
requested from Company, but not received by University


 


4.2.          Pre-Agreement
Patent Filings. The Company represents that, as of the Effective Date, it has not and does not manufacture, have manufactured,
offer to sell, sell, offer to lease, lease, or import (a) any product or good that infringes (including under the doctrine of equivalents)
a claim in any Licensed Patent including patent applications, or (b) any product or good that is made using a process or machine
that infringes (including under the doctrine of equivalents) a claim in a Licensed Patent including patent applications.


 


4.3.          Patent
Application Filings During the Term of This Agreement.


 


4.3.1.          The
University retains the sole and exclusive right to file or otherwise prosecute all patent applications within the Licensed Patents
using counsel of University's choice. Provided Company is reimbursing University for ongoing patent expenses, Company may request
University choose new counsel should Company become dissatisfied with current counsel, such change in counsel not to be unreasonably
withheld by University.  In no event shall the Company file a patent application with respect to the Licensed Technology
which was invented solely by the University.  The Company shall cooperate with the University in the filing and prosecution
of all patent applications within the Licensed Patents. Where Company files a patent application that has a UW employee as an inventor
in addition to inventors that are under obligation to assign patent rights to Company, such patent application shall be reported
to the University immediately upon filing, and University shall receive a copy.  Should the University assert that it
is the proper assignee of such UW employee's ownership interest in such patent application under the University's then current
policies, Company shall add the University as an assignee, copy University on all patent office correspondence, allow University
to comment on prosecution, and provide University notice of any application or patent that is to be abandoned such that University
can choose to continue prosecution/maintenance at its option until such time as it is determined (either by law or mutual agreement
of the Parties) that the University is not the proper assignee of such UW employee's rights.

THE
COMPANY HAS REQUESTED AN ORDER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “COMMISSION”) PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED, GRANTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT TO SELECTED PORTIONS. ACCORDINGLY, THE CONFIDENTIAL
PORTIONS HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT, AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS ARE INDICATED

4.3.2.          Subject
to Section 4.1, Company may request that University prosecute Licensed Patents in foreign countries, if available and if Company
so desires. Company will notify University of its desire to obtain or maintain foreign patents not less than ninety (90) days prior
to the deadline for any payment, filing or action to be taken in connection therewith. Any such notice concerning a foreign patent
filing must be in writing, and must identify the countries in which Company wishes patent protection to be sought. Such notice
shall be deemed confirmation of the Company's obligation to pay such costs associated with such patent filings.  The
absence of such a notice from the Company to University will be considered an election by Company not to obtain the particular
foreign rights at issue.


 


4.3.3.           Subject to Section
4.1, the University shall take all commercially reasonable steps to cause patents and patent applications within Licensed Patents
to be diligently prosecuted and maintained. The University shall (i) instruct counsel to copy Company on all correspondence with
domestic and foreign patent authorities regarding the Licensed Patents, and upon request of Company, will take such other reasonable
steps as may be necessary to cause such counsel to comply with such instructions, and (ii) provide Company with copies of all invoices
from University's patent counsel for the filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents, and (iii) consult with the
Company on the prosecution of the patent application. Company's suggestions and requests regarding patent prosecution shall be
reasonably considered and included to the extent not detrimental to University's intellectual property rights.  Subject
to Company making arrangements to reimburse University for the entire cost of direct consultation with the University counsel,
Company shall have the right to speak with such counsel directly, provided University shall have the right to be included in such
communication.


 


4.3.4.          In
the event the University and the Company do not reach an agreement as to whether a patent application with respect to the Licensed
Technology should be filed in a particular country, the University may, but shall have no duty or obligation hereunder to, file
and prosecute such patent application at its own expense.


 


4.3.5.          No provision of this Agreement limits, conditions, or otherwise affects the University's right to prosecute a patent
application within the Licensed Patents in any country.


 


4.4.          Maintenance
of Licensed Patents. Subject to Section 4.1, the University shall take all commercially reasonable steps to cause each Licensed
Patent to remain or be valid and subsisting.

PORTIONS HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT, AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS ARE INDICATED

4.5.          Ownership
of the Licensed Patents and Patent Applications. No provision of this Agreement grants the Company any rights, titles, or interests
(except for the grant of license in Section 3.1.1 of this Agreement) in the Licensed Patents including patent applications, notwithstanding
the Company's payment of all or any portion of the patent prosecution, maintenance, and related costs.


 


5.             Commercialization.


 


5.1.          Commercialization
and Performance Milestones. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with sound and reasonable
business practices and judgment, to commercialize the Licensed Technology and to manufacture and offer to make and sell Licensed
Products as soon as reasonably practicable and to maximize sales thereof. Unless excused by the occurrence of an Event of Force
Majeure during the term of this Agreement, the Company shall perform, or shall cause to happen or be performed, as the case may
be, all the performance milestones described in Section A5.1 of attached Exhibit A.  For
purposes of clarity, it is understood and agreed that with respect to the diligence obligations set forth in this Agreement, including
without limitation the obligations described in this Section 5.1 and Section A5.1 of attached Exhibit A, such obligations may be
satisfied by Company directly, or by Company's Sublicensees.


 


5.2.          Covenants
Regarding the Manufacture of Licensed Products. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the manufacture, use, sale, or
transfer of Licensed Products shall comply with all applicable federal and state laws, including all federal export laws and regulations.  The
Company hereby further covenants and agrees that, to the extent required under 35 United States Code Section 204, it shall, and
it shall cause each Sublicensee, to substantially manufacture in the United States of America all products embodying or produced
through the use of an invention that is subject to the rights of the federal government of the United States of America.


 


5.3.          Commercialization
Reports.  Within thirty (30) days of December 31 of each year following
the first anniversary of the Effective Date and continuing until such time as Company (either directly or through its Sublicensee)
begins providing University with sales reports pursuant to Section 6.3 below, the Company shall deliver to the University written
reports of the Company's and its Material Sublicensees' efforts and plans to commercialize the Licensed Technology and to manufacture,
offer to sell, or sell Licensed Products.  In such written report, Company will provide University a general description
of the activities of Company and each Material Sublicensee.  Company further agrees in the case of Sublicenses granted
to Sublicensees that are not Material Sublicensees, that Company will provide University with the name of the Sublicensee and general
description of the general type of work (e.g., contract manufacturing, monitoring of clinical trials, etc.) being performed under
each such Sublicense.  Company's inability to disclose any plans of its Sublicensees shall not relieve the Company of
its obligations to demonstrate its compliance with its diligence obligations under Section 5.1 above including for each of the
commercialization and performance milestones described in Section A5.1 of attached Exhibit A, each commercialization report shall
include sufficient information to demonstrate compliance of those milestones and shall set out timeframes and plans for those milestones
which have not yet been met.  Company further agrees to include in each such commercialization report a list of all Sublicenses
granted by Company during the preceding calendar year.  Upon University's request, Company shall provide a list of wholesalers
and resellers with rights to sell Licensed Product. Company further agrees that it will provide University a verbal and in-person
update as to progress against milestones every three (3) months until such time as Company has achieved Qualified Funding.

5.4.          Use
of the University's Name and Trademarks or the Names of University Faculty, Staff, or Students.  Except as
provided below, no provision of this Agreement grants the Company or Sublicensee any right or license to use the name or
trademarks of the University, UMass, or the names or identities of any member of the faculty, staff, or student body of the
University or UMass. The Company shall not use and shall not permit its Sublicensees to use any such trademarks, names, or
identities without prior written approval by an authorized representative of the respective institutions. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Company may use the name University of Washington and University of Massachusetts (i) in discussions with, and
disclosures to, investors, potential investors, advisors, partners, potential acquirers and Affiliates of Company, and (ii)
disclosures required by securities laws and in other regulatory and administrative filings in the ordinary course of
Company's business, in each case so long as the use of University's and UMass' name by Company is limited to statements of
fact and is not used in a manner to suggest or imply endorsement by University or UMass of Company or of any Licensed
Product.


 


6.             Payments,
Reimbursements, Reports, and Records.


 


6.1.          Payments.  The
Company shall deliver to the University the payment or payments specified in Section A6.1 of attached Exhibit A.  The
Company shall make such payments by check, wire transfer, or any other mutually agreed-upon and generally accepted method of payment.  All
checks to the University shall be made payable to "University of Washington" and shall be mailed to the address specified

6.2.          Late
Payments.  Company agrees to pay a late fee for all amounts owed to the University that are overdue by thirty (30)
days or more.  The late fee shall be computed at an effective annual rate equal to the United States prime rate plus
[****], compounded monthly, as set forth by The Wall Street Journal (Western edition) on the date on which such payment
is due, of the outstanding, unpaid balance.  The payment of such a late fee shall not foreclose or limit University from
exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment.

6.3.          Sales
Reports.  Within sixty (60) days after the last day of a calendar quarter, beginning with first commercial sale of
Licensed Product and continuing through the term of this Agreement and the Post-termination Period, the Company shall deliver to
the University a written sales report (a copy of the form of which is attached as Exhibit B) recounting the number and Net Sales
amount (expressed in U. S. dollars) of all sales, leases, or other dispositions of Licensed Products, whether made by the Company
or any Sublicensee, during such calendar quarter.  The Company shall deliver such written report to the University even
if the Company is not required hereunder to pay to the University a payment for sales, leases, or other dispositions of Licensed
Products during the calendar quarter.


 


6.4.          Records
Retention and Audit Rights.


 


6.4.1.          Throughout
the term of this Agreement and the Post-termination Period and for three (3) years thereafter, the Company, at its expense, shall
keep and maintain and shall cause each Sublicensee to keep and maintain complete and accurate records of all sales, leases, and
other dispositions of Licensed Products during the term of this Agreement and the Post-termination Period and all other records
related to this Agreement.


 


6.4.2.          The
University, at its expense except as set forth below in this Section, shall have the right to inspect and audit the Company's records
referred to in Section 6.4.1 hereof at the Company's address as set forth in Article 22 of this Agreement or such other locations
as the Parties shall mutually agree during the Company's normal business hours.  The frequency of such inspection and
audit shall be at the University's discretion, but no more than once per calendar year.  The University shall have the
right to determine the Company's compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Company shall reimburse the University for all
its out-of-pocket expenses to inspect and audit such records if the University, in accordance with the results of such inspection
and audit, determines that the Company has underpaid amounts owed to the University by at least [****] in the audited period. The
Company shall cause each Affiliate Sublicensee (and shall use reasonable efforts to cause all other Sublicensees) to grant the
University a right to inspect and audit such Sublicensee's records, such right of inspection and audit to be substantially similar
to the rights granted the University in this Section.  To the extent that Company does not have the right to grant University
the right to audit such non-Affiliate Sublicensees' books and records hereunder, Company shall obtain for itself such right and,
at the request of University, Company shall exercise such audit right with respect to such non-Affiliate Sublicensees using auditors
reasonably acceptable to University and provide the results of such audit for inspection by University pursuant to this Section
6.4.2, such results to be sufficient for University to confirm amounts owed to University in connection with such Sublicense.  In
connection with, and prior to the commencement of, an audit, if the Company so requests in writing to the University, the Company,
the University and the auditor shall enter into an agreement on standard and customary terms prohibiting the auditor and the University
from disclosing the Company's nonpublic, proprietary information to any Third Party without the Company's prior written consent;
provided, however, that consistent with generally accepted auditing standards and the auditor's professional judgment, the auditor
may disclose such information to the University and its agents, counsel, or consultants.

6.5.          Currency
and Checks. All computations and payments made under this Agreement shall be in United States dollars.  The exchange
rate for the currency into dollars as reported in the Wall Street Journal as the New York foreign exchange mid-range rate
on the last business day of the month in which the transaction was entered into shall be used for determining the dollar value
of transactions conducted in non-United States dollar currencies.


 


7.              Infringement.


 


7.1.          Third-Party
Infringement of a Licensed Patent.


 


7.1.1.          Notice
of Third Party's Infringement.  In the event a Party learns of substantial, credible evidence that a Third Party
is making, using, or selling a product in a Field of Use in the Territory that infringes a Licensed Patent, such Party promptly
thereafter shall deliver written notice of the possible infringement to the other Party, describing in detail the information suggesting
infringement of the Licensed Patent.


 


7.1.2.          Legal
Action to Enforce a Licensed Patent.  Upon the delivery of the notice
described in Section 7.1.1 of this Agreement, the Company and the University shall discuss the steps and acts they shall take to
investigate the matter, to cause the Third Party to cease infringing a Licensed Patent, and to seek compensation for the acts of
infringement and reimbursement for related costs and expenses. Company shall have the first right to commence an action to enforce
a Licensed Patent.  If necessary to the suit, the University agrees to be joined as a party plaintiff provided that Company
shall reimburse the University for all reasonable legal fees and costs incident thereto.  If Company fails, within ninety
(90) days of a request by University to take action to stop infringement of the Licensed Patents within the Field of Use, to secure
cessation of the infringement, institute suit against the infringer, or to provide to University satisfactory evidence that Company
is engaged in bona fide negotiations for the acceptance by infringer of a Sublicense in and to relevant patents in Licensed Patents
for the Field of Use, then University may, upon written notice to Company, assume full right and responsibility to secure cessation
of the infringement, or institute suit against the infringer.  If University in accordance with the terms and conditions
of this Agreement chooses to institute suit against an alleged infringer, University may bring such suit in its own name (or, if
required by law, in its and Company's name) and at its own expense, and Company shall, at University's expense for Company's direct
associated expenses, fully and promptly cooperate and assist University in connection with any such suit. Any and all license fees,
royalties, damages, awards, or settlement proceeds shall first be applied to reimburse the enforcing Party's out-of-pocket expenses
and then the non-enforcing Party's out-of-pocket expenses.  If Company initiated and prosecuted, or maintained the defense
of, the action, the amount of any recovery remaining shall be retained by Company, except that any payment that constitutes consideration
for sale of infringing Licensed Product shall be handled according to the provisions of Net Sales, and any payment that constitutes
consideration of or the grant of a Sublicense shall be handled as Sublicensing Consideration.  If University initiated
and prosecuted, or maintained the defense of, the action, the amount of any recovery remaining then shall be divided ten percent
(10%) to Company and ninety percent (90%) to University.  The University shall not have an obligation under this Agreement
to commence or maintain such an action.  No provision of this Agreement shall limit, condition, or otherwise affect a
Party's statutory and common-law rights to commence an action to enforce a Licensed Patent.

7.2.          The
Company's Alleged Infringement of a Third Party's Rights.


 


7.2.1.          Notice
and Investigation of Alleged Infringement.  In the event the Company receives written notice (or is informed by a
Sublicensee or customer that they have received written notice) from a Third Party charging that Company's (or a Sublicensee's)
practice of Licensed Patents to manufacture, sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of a Licensed Product infringes the patent rights
of such Third Party, the Company promptly thereafter shall deliver written notice of such notification to the University.


 


7.2.2.          Settlement
and Defense. As between the Parties to this Agreement, Company will be entitled to control the defense in any such actions.  If
Company is required to pay a royalty (including any amounts for past royalties) to a Third Party to make and/or sell a Licensed
Product as a result of a final judgment or settlement, Company shall be entitled, pursuant to Section A6.1.5 of Exhibit A, to deduct
such amounts from the royalties owing to University subject to the terms of Section A6.1.5. (Third Party Royalties Deduction) of
Exhibit A.  For avoidance of doubt, Company shall not be entitled to recalculate past royalties paid to University or
reduce ongoing royalty payments below [****] percent ([****]%) of Net Sales to compensate for past royalties due under a final
judgment or settlement.  In no event shall the Company admit, allege or otherwise state in connection with the defense
of a suit described in this Section orally or in any answer, request for admissions, interrogatories, deposition, affidavit, court
testimony, court document (including motion papers and briefs), or any other document of whatever type that a Licensed Patent is
invalid or that a claim in a Licensed Patent is invalid, unless the University has given its prior written consent.


 


7.3           In
any suit, action or other proceeding in connection with enforcement and/or defense of the Licensed Patents, University agrees to
cooperate with Company, including without limitation by executing such necessary documents as Company may reasonably request.  Upon
the request of and, at the expense of Company, University agrees to use efforts reasonable to University to make available at reasonable
times and under appropriate conditions necessary personnel, records, papers, information, samples, specimens and other similar
materials in University's possession.

8.             Termination.


 


8.1.          By
the University.


 


8.1.1.          If
the Company breaches or fails to perform one or more of its duties under this Agreement, the University may deliver to the Company
a written notice of default.  The University may terminate this Agreement by delivering to the Company a written
notice of termination if the default has not been cured in full within sixty (60) days of the delivery to the Company of the notice
of default.  If, however, Company disputes in good faith that the claimed breach exists, such 60 day period will not
start to run until the earlier of (i) such dispute being resolved or (ii) such dispute having been through the dispute resolution
process of Section 16.1 and 16.2.  If, prior to the expiration of the termination of such sixty (60) day period, Company
files suit to prevent University from terminating this Agreement, such sixty (60) day period shall halt, and not resume until a
decision on such suit is made by the court or such suit is abandoned.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if University agrees
that greater than sixty (60) days is required for Company to cure such breach, University shall consider in good faith the appropriate
time required, and shall not begin such sixty (60) day period unless University believes Company is not moving forward in good
faith to cure such breach in a timely fashion.


 


8.1.2.          The
University may terminate this Agreement by delivering to the Company a written notice of termination at least ten (10) days prior
to the date of termination if the Company (i) becomes insolvent at any time following the second anniversary of the Effective Date
or seeks liquidation or dissolution; (ii) voluntarily files or has filed against it a petition under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency
law, and such petition or proceeding if brought by a Third Party is not dismissed within ninety (90) days; (iii) a receiver or
trustee is appointed to take possession, custody or control of all or part of Company's assets or property, unless such appointment
occurs at the instigation of a Third Party and is dismissed within ninety (90) days; or (iv) makes a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors.


 


8.2.          By
the Company.  The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time by delivering to the University a written notice
of termination at least sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of termination.


 


8.3.          Post-termination
Period.


 


8.3.1.          Except
as permitted in this Section 8.3.1, the Company shall not use, or permit others to use, the Licensed Technology or manufacture
or have manufactured Licensed Products after the termination of this Agreement.  After the termination of this Agreement
under Section 8.2 or the expiration of this Agreement, the Company may offer to sell and sell, offer to lease and lease, and otherwise
offer to dispose of or dispose of Licensed Products in the Territory that were manufactured prior to the termination of this Agreement.  After
termination of this Agreement under Section 8.1, the Company shall not offer to sell or sell, offer to lease or lease, or otherwise
offer to dispose of or dispose of a Licensed Product in the Territory.  For purposes of clarity, the foregoing restrictions
shall not apply in the event of an expiration of this Agreement.  With respect to any of the Licensed Technology and
Licensed Patents co-owned by the Company and University, the foregoing shall not be construed to limit any of Company’s rights
as a joint owner in the co-owned Licensed Technology and Licensed Patents.  For avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement
affects the legal rights of co-owners of Licensed Patents following termination of this Agreement.

8.3.2.          At
any time within thirty (30) days following termination of this Agreement, for whatever reason other than expiration, a Material
Sublicensee may notify University that it wishes to enter into a direct license with University in order to retain its rights to
the Licensed Patents, Licensed Technology and Know-How granted to it under its Sublicense.  Following receipt of such
notice, University and Material Sublicensee shall promptly enter into a license agreement (the "New License Agreement"),
the terms of which license agreement shall be substantially similar to the terms of the Sublicense granted by Company to such Material
Sublicensee, including but not limited to sublicense scope, sublicense territory, and duration of sublicense grant; provided however,
that the financial terms of each New License Agreement, including without limitation, the running royalty rate and milestone payments,
shall be identical to the corresponding financial terms set forth in this Agreement, except that the New License Agreement shall
provide for payment on a pro rata basis with all other Material Sublicensees choosing to take a direct license of (i) the minimum
royalties due to University under this Agreement, (ii) the ongoing patent costs of the Licensed Patents as well as any unreimbursed
past patent expenses with respect to the Licensed Patents due to University under this Agreement, and (iii) any other out of pocket
expenses of University which Company is obligated to reimburse under this Agreement. University further agrees that each Material
Sublicense granted by Company hereunder shall survive during the period commencing on termination of this Agreement and ending
on the earlier of (1) the expiration of the thirty (30) day period as described above if the Material Sublicensee does not provide
notice to University that it wishes to enter into the New License Agreement, or (2) the effective date of the New License Agreement
between University and the applicable Material Sublicensee.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Material Sublicensee's
right to enter into the New License Agreement shall be contingent upon:


 


   8.3.2.1           such
Material Sublicensee informing University in writing pursuant to Article 22 (Notices), that it wishes to enter into a direct license
with University, within thirty (30) days of termination of this Agreement with Company;


 


   8.3.2.2           such
Sublicense being in good standing with University and such Sublicense not being the subject matter of a dispute with the University
or Company;


 


   8.3.2.3           such
Material Sublicensee being in compliance with its Sublicense agreement in all material respects;


 


   8.3.2.4           such
Material Sublicensee using reasonable efforts to provide documentation requested by University to demonstrate Material Sublicensee
meets compliance requirements as set out in this Section 8.3.2 within thirty (30) days of such request for documentation by University
(or such longer period of time as University agrees is reasonable under the circumstances based on the nature and extent of the
requested documentation);

9.4.          Procedure.  An
indemnitee that intends to claim indemnification under this Article 9 shall: (i) promptly notify the indemnifying Party in writing
of any Claim with respect to which the indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification; (ii) give the indemnifying Party sole
control of the defense and/or settlement thereof, subject to indemnifying Party receiving prior written approval from the indemnified
Party before entering into any settlement that would materially diminish the rights or interests of the indemnified Party; and
(iii) provide the indemnifying Party, at the indemnifying Party's expense, with reasonable assistance and full information with
respect to such Claim.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying Party shall have no obligations for any Claim
if the indemnitee makes any admission against interest or settlement regarding such Claim, in the case of the indemnitee being
the University or UMass or their regents, officers, employees, students, or agents, such admission being made by an officer of
the University or UMass respectively, without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably

Company's Insurance.


 


9.5.1.          Prior
to the first dosing of a human subject with Licensed Product, and throughout the term of this Agreement thereafter, Company shall
maintain, and shall cause each Material Sublicensee to maintain, in full force and effect comprehensive general liability (CGL)
insurance, with single claim limits reasonably acceptable to the University. Such insurance policy shall include coverage for claims
that may be asserted by the University or UMass against the Company under Section 9.2 of this Agreement and for claims by a Third
Party against the Company or the University or UMass arising (i) out of the purchase or use of a Licensed Product, or (ii) from
human clinical trials of Licensed Products by Company or its Sublicensees.  Such insurance policy shall name the University
and UMass, and any Sublicensee without independent insurance fulfilling the obligations of this Section 9.5.1, as additional insureds.  Such
insurance policy shall require the insurer to deliver written notice to the University at the address set forth in Article 22 of
this Agreement at least thirty (30) days prior to the termination of the policy. Upon receipt of the University's written request,
the Company shall deliver to the University a copy of the certificate of insurance for such policy. For avoidance of doubt, Company
and Material Sublicensees are responsible for ensuring insurance coverage as required under this Section 9.5.1 is in place and
in full force for the activities of each of their Sublicensees as a condition of providing a Sublicense to such Sublicensee.


 


9.5.2.          The
provisions of Section 9.5.1 of this Agreement shall not apply if the University agrees in writing to accept the Company's or a
Sublicensee's, as the case may be, self-insurance plan as adequate insurance.


 


9.6.          Sublicensees
- Release. The Company shall cause each Sublicensee and assignee to grant the University and UMass a release from liabilities
substantially similar to the release granted in favor of the University and UMass in Section 9.1 of this Agreement.

15.3.        No
Unauthorized Disclosure of Confidential Information. Beginning on the Effective Date and continuing throughout the term of
this Agreement and thereafter for a period of five (5) years ("Confidentiality Period"), neither Party shall use for
any purpose or disclose or otherwise make known or available to any Third Party any Confidential Information disclosed to it by

procedures to safeguard the Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other Party.  Notwithstanding the above,
Company shall be permitted to (i) disclose University Confidential Information to actual or potential investors, lenders, consultants,
collaborators, Sublicensees, development partners, attorneys or advisors, which disclosure shall be made so far as reasonably practicable
under conditions of confidentiality and limited use and provided Company is liable to University for any breaches of confidentiality

with any filing, prosecution, or maintenance of any proprietary rights without the express written permission of the University,

sole discretion.  In the event University receives a request for public records under the Act for documents containing
Confidential Information, and if University concludes that the documents are not otherwise exempt from public disclosure, University
will provide Company notice of the request before releasing such documents. Such notice shall be provided in a timely manner to
afford Company sufficient time to review such documents and/or seek a protective order, at Company's expense utilizing the procedures
described in RCW 42.56.540.  University shall have no obligation to protect the Confidential Information from disclosure
in response to a request for public records.

THE
COMPANY HAS REQUESTED AN ORDER FROM THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “COMMISSION”) PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2

PORTIONS HAVE BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS EXHIBIT, AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. OMITTED PORTIONS ARE INDICATED
IN THIS EXHIBIT WITH “*****”.


 


16.1         Informal
Dispute Resolution.  Prior to initiating formal dispute resolution procedures, the Parties will first attempt to
resolve any Dispute directly through good faith negotiations. Either Party may deliver to the other a written notice requiring
negotiation of the Dispute ("Notice To Negotiate").  The Parties will seek to resolve Disputes through negotiations,
but may, during this informal dispute resolution period, escalate the resolution of any Dispute internally as necessary or appropriate
to the Company's Chief Executive Officer and University's Director of UW CoMotion, Innovation Development, or their authorized
representatives.  If the Dispute has not been resolved within fifteen (15) days after the delivery of a Notice to Negotiate,
either Party may by written notice ("Notice To Mediate") request to mediate the Dispute in accordance with Section 16.2
(Mediation), subject to the other Party's consent.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Parties will conduct
the negotiations in confidence.


 


16.2         Mediation.  Subject
to the Parties mutual agreement to mediate the Dispute pursuant to Section 16.1 (“Informal Dispute Resolution”), the
Parties agree to retain the services of a mutually acceptable Third Party mediator to mediate the resolution of the Dispute.  Unless
the Parties otherwise agree in writing, the mediator will be resident in the metropolitan area in which the University is situated,
and all meetings regarding the mediation will be held either by video or telephone conference or by in-person meetings held in
such city. No Party will unreasonably withhold acceptance of a mediator, and the selection of a mediator will be made within 15
days following the conclusion of direct negotiations regarding a Dispute pursuant to Section 16.1 (Informal Dispute Resolution)
above.  If a mediator is not appointed, or if, following the appointment of a mediator, the Dispute is not resolved within
thirty (30) days, or such extended period that the Parties may agree to in writing, after the delivery of the Notice To Mediate,
then either Party may elect to pursue any options available to them under this Agreement, or commence litigation pursuant to Section
16.3 (“Litigation”) below.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Parties agree to maintain the mediation
proceedings in confidence; and share the costs of the mediator and the mediation facilities equally.  All communications
during the mediation referred to in this Section 16.2 including any documents or information prepared and exchanged solely for
the purposes of that mediation, will be considered to be "without prejudice" and will not be admissible in any subsequent
litigation.


 


16.3         Litigation.  Any
Party may seek (i) interim measure of protection, including injunctive relief, prior to or during the negotiation or mediation
of Disputes, and (ii) final resolution, from the courts sitting in the city in which the University is situated regarding any Dispute,
and each Party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, and all courts competent to
hear appeals therefrom, for that purpose.


 


17.           Consent
and Approvals.  Except as otherwise expressly provided, all consents or approvals required under the terms of this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Cost Reimbursement.  Notwithstanding any term of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall have no obligations
under this Agreement to pay, or reimburse the University for paying, any cost or expense to apply for, prosecute, or maintain each
Licensed Patent including patent applications until Company has received Seed Funding, or [****] months has passed following the
Effective Date of this Agreement, whichever is sooner.  University may, in its sole discretion, choose to extend this
period during which Company does not pay past or ongoing patent expenses for an additional [****] months after reevaluation by
the Parties if Seed Funding has not been achieved.  Once Company has received Seed Funding, Company shall pay the ongoing
reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by University in prosecuting and maintaining the Licensed Patents ("Patent Expenses")
to a maximum of [****] Dollars ($[****] US) per year until such time as Company has received Qualified Funding.  Once
Company has received Qualified Funding it shall pay all ongoing Patent Expenses, and shall reimburse University for all past Patent
Expenses, including both costs incurred prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement, and any costs incurred by University and
not reimbursed by Company during the term of this Agreement. Such payment of past Patent Expenses may occur, at Company's option,
in eight (8) equal quarterly installments.  Company shall have no obligation to reimburse University for past Patent
Expenses for which University has been previously reimbursed by a Third Party.  Where Qualified Funding has been guaranteed,
but not yet received by Company, University and Company shall negotiate in good faith to determine an appropriate patent reimbursement
schedule.  University is at no time during this Agreement obligated to incur patent expenses for which Company is not
currently reimbursing University.  Company understands University will endeavor to limit its incurrence of Patent Expenses
which are not being currently reimbursed by Company to a maximum of [****] Dollars ($[****] US) in any twelve (12) month period.

a Sublicensee a license (i) under other patents and patent applications owned or controlled by Company that are necessary for freedom
to operate for the development of Licensed Products by Sublicensee, or (ii) to a therapeutic owned or controlled by Company which
will be used in conjunction with University Licensed Patents and Licensed Technology by Sublicensee, in each case only to the extent
that the total aggregate consideration for such combined license is treated as Sublicensing Consideration, and only to the extent
that such license is required for the manufacture, use, or sale of Licensed Products.


 


A.6.1.8.3  In
the event that Company received Sublicensing Consideration prior to Company having achieved Qualified Funding, Company may defer
payment to University of up to [****] Dollars ($[****]US) in Sublicensing Consideration Fees based upon such Sublicensing Consideration
until such time as Company achieves Qualified Funding.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company may not defer payment
of any Sublicensing Consideration Fees if University has not been reimbursed for all past and current Patent Costs except to the
extent such deferral amount is actually used to reimburse University for such past and current Patent Costs. Use of deferral amount
to reimburse University for past and current Patent Costs shall not excuse company from paying University its full Sublicensing
Consideration Fee, including all deferred amounts, when Qualified Funding is achieved.  Where Qualified Funding has been
guaranteed but not received by Company, University and Company shall negotiate in good faith to determine an appropriate schedule
for payment of any deferred Sublicensing Consideration Fees.
