 12 








 
(b) any non-public information regarding a disclosing party’s Existing IP or Future IP that a reasonable person familiar with the disclosing
party’s business would reasonably expect to be confidential or proprietary information. 
 11.2 Confidentiality and Non-Use.
The recipient of a disclosing party’s Confidential Information shall maintain such Confidential Information in confidence, and shall disclose such Confidential Information only to its employees, agents, consultants, Affiliates,
sublicensees, attorneys’, accountants and advisors who have a reasonable need to know such Confidential Information and who are bound by obligations of confidentiality and non-use no less restrictive then those set forth herein or (in the case
of attorneys) have fiduciary duties of confidentiality. The recipient of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information shall use such Confidential Information solely to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, the right to use and disclose such Confidential Information in regulatory applications and filings contemplated by this Agreement), unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing. The recipient of the other party’s
Confidential Information shall take the same degree of care that it uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information of a similar nature and importance (but in any event no less than reasonable care). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
each party may disclose only the terms of this agreement to bona fide investors, merger partners, or funding sources in connection with due diligence activities. 
 11.3 Exclusions. Confidential Information shall not include information that: (a) is in the recipient’s possession prior to receipt from the disclosing party (it being understood however, that
no information shall be disqualified from being Confidential Information of party solely because such information may have been in the possession of an employee of Broncus or Asthmatx on or prior to December 30, 2003 as a result of such
employee’s employment with Broncus on or prior to December 30, 2003); (b) is or becomes, through no fault of the recipient, publicly known; (c) is furnished to the recipient by a third party without breach of a duty to the
disclosing party; (d) is independently developed by the recipient without use of, application of or reference to the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

disclosed under applicable law, including applicable securities law, but such disclosure shall be only for the sole purpose of and solely to the extent required by such law, provided that the recipient, to the extent possible, shall give the
disclosing party prior written notice of the proposed disclosure and cooperate fully with the disclosing party to minimize the scope of any such required disclosure, to the extent possible and in accordance with applicable law. 
 11.5 Publication. Neither party will publish or otherwise disclose (except subject to appropriate confidentiality agreements) any
Confidential Information regarding the other’s technology, Existing IP or Future IP that is covered under this Agreement without the prior written approval from the other party, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

 2. SUBLICENSE. 
 2.1 Grant. Subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Ntero License Agreement and this
Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted under the Ntero License Agreement, Broncus hereby grants to Asthmatx, a worldwide sublicense: 
 (a) to use and practice the Ntero Technology solely within the Asthmatx Field (but only to the extent that the Asthmatx Field is within the Ntero Field), including without limitation the right to use, copy, modify,
distribute, make derivative works of and otherwise exploit the Ntero Technology within the Asthmatx Field to the extent it is within the Ntero Field; and 
 (b) under the Ntero Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, distribute, offer to sell, import and practice products and processes solely within the Asthmatx Field (but only to the extent that it is within the Ntero
Field); 
 provided however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) in no event shall the foregoing sublicense provide, or be
deemed to provide, Asthmatx with any greater rights than Broncus is entitled to grant by way of sublicense to Asthmatx under the Ntero License Agreement, and (b) Asthmatx is not hereby granted any right or license to sublicense any of the
rights which it is 

  


	****	Confidential portions of this exhibit have been omitted and confidential treatment has been requested for these omitted portions pursuant to an application for confidential
treatment sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

 23 








 
granted under this Section 2.1. Asthmatx agrees not to exercise any rights with respect to the Ntero Technology or any Ntero Licensed Patents that are
not expressly sublicensed to Asthmatx by Broncus under this Agreement. 
 2.2 Duration of Sublicense. The foregoing sublicense shall
remain in effect only for so long as (a) Broncus is entitled under the terms of the Ntero License Agreement to grant such sublicense to Asthmatx and to keep such sublicense in effect; (b) the Ntero License Agreement and Broncus’
rights thereunder have not been terminated; and (c) neither this Agreement nor such sublicense has been terminated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.1. 
 2.3 Retention of Rights. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the sublicense granted by Broncus to Asthmatx under this Section 2 shall be non-exclusive and it is the agreement, understanding
and intention of the parties that nothing in this Agreement will modify, adversely affect, restrict or limit Broncus’ right to exercise any and all of the license rights granted to Broncus under the Ntero License Agreement. Except for the
sublicense rights expressly granted by Broncus to Asthmatx herein, nothing herein is intended to convey any right, title or interest in or to the Ntero Technology or any of the Ntero Licensed Patents. 
 3. PAYMENT OF ROYALTIES TO BRONCUS. 
 3.1 Royalty
Obligation. As a material inducement and consideration to Broncus to grant the sublicense to Asthmatx pursuant to Section 2, for so long as Broncus has any obligation to pay royalties to Ntero under the Ntero License Agreement, Asthmatx
shall pay to Broncus, with respect to any Asthmatx Net Sales in such calendar quarter, the full amount payable by Broncus to Ntero with respect to such Asthmatx Net Sales under the terms of the Ntero License Agreement. As of the Effective Date, the
amount payable by Broncus with respect to such Asthmatx Net Sales is: 
 (a) in the event that the relevant Ntero Licensed
Product performs the Primary Function (as that term is defined in the Ntero License Agreement) but does not perform any other material function, two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate Asthmatx Net Sales of such Ntero Licensed Product; and

 (b) in the event that a Ntero Licensed Product performs other material functions in addition to the Primary Function (as
that term is defined in the Ntero License Agreement), one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate Asthmatx Net Sales of such Ntero Licensed Product. 
 3.2 Royalty Stacking; Credits. If Asthmatx is required (in Asthmatx’s good faith judgment) to make any Third-Party Payment (as defined below) then such Third-Party Payment or Payments shall be creditable against royalties
otherwise owed by Asthmatx to Broncus under Section 3.1 to the extent permitted by this Section 3.2; provided that in no one year shall such expenses be credited by Asthmatx against more than fifty percent (50%) of the
royalty payments otherwise owed by Asthmatx to Broncus under this Agreement. As used herein, the term “Third-Party Payment” means a payment made by a party to this Agreement (including but not limited to, royalties or other license
fees) to one or more third parties to obtain a license or similar right, in the absence of which such party could not legally make, import, use, sell or offer for sale Ntero Licensed Products. The Ntero License Agreement provides that in no one year
shall Third-Party Expenses be credited against more than fifty percent (50%) of the royalty payments otherwise owed to Ntero by Broncus. Accordingly, as among themselves, Broncus and Asthmatx agree to allocate the right to receive a credit for
Third-Party Payments made by them (i) against royalties 

  


	****	Confidential portions of this exhibit have been omitted and confidential treatment has been requested for these omitted portions pursuant to an application for confidential
treatment sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

 24 








 
payable by Asthmatx under this Agreement as provided herein (in the case of Asthmatx) and (ii) against royalties payable by Broncus under the Ntero
License Agreement (in the case of Broncus) so that, if Broncus and Asthmatx have royalty obligations against which it can use such credits for Third-Party Payments and the total amount of such Third-Party Payments by Asthmatx and Broncus exceeds the
amount that can be credited by Broncus against royalties under the Ntero License Agreement, the parties will allocate such available credits pro rata according to the total amounts of their respective Third-Party Payments; provided
that Asthmatx may not credit Third-Party Payment in any one year against more than fifty percent (50%) of the royalty payments otherwise owed by Asthmatx to Broncus under this Agreement. 
  

	3.3	Payment Terms. 

 (a) Time for
Payment. Asthmatx shall pay all royalties due and payable on Asthmatx Net Sales pursuant to this Section 3 within forty-five (45) days after the last day of each quarter in which the applicable Asthmatx Net Sales underlying such
royalties were billed or invoiced by Asthmatx or an Affiliate of Asthmatx. 
 (b) Payment Currency. All payments made
by Asthmatx to Broncus under this Agreement shall be made in United States dollars, and such payments shall be made by check or wire transfer to one or more bank accounts to be designated in writing by Broncus. In the event that Ntero Licensed
Products are sold or licensed by Asthmatx in currencies other than United States dollars, Asthmatx Net Sales shall be calculated by conversion of foreign currency to U.S. dollars at the conversion rate existing in the United States (referencing the
“U.S. dollar noon buying rates”, or its equivalent, published in the Wall Street Journal) on the last working day of each period during which royalties are calculated, net of applicable exchange related charges, or otherwise in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied. 
 (c) Taxes. All applicable taxes levied on
account of the royalties and other payments accruing or made to Broncus pursuant to this Agreement, other than taxes on Broncus’ net income, shall be paid by Asthmatx. If provision is made in law or regulation for withholding of taxes of any
type, levies or other charges with respect to any royalty or other amounts due and payable under this Agreement by Asthmatx to Broncus, then Asthmatx shall be entitled to deduct such tax, levy or charge from the royalty or other payment to be made
by it and shall pay such tax, levy or charge to the proper taxing authority. A receipt of payment of the tax, levy or charge shall be promptly delivered to Broncus, together with copies of all pertinent communications from or with such governmental
authorities with respect thereto. At Broncus’ reasonable request and at Asthmatx’s expense, Asthmatx shall reasonably assist Broncus in any effort by Broncus in claiming any exemption from such deductions or withholdings under any double
taxation or similar agreement or treaty from time to time in force, and in minimizing the amount required to be so withheld or deducted. 
 (d) Records and Reports. All payments made to Broncus by Asthmatx hereunder shall be accompanied by a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation thereof, including the amount of any
credits Asthmatx claims for Third-Party Payments pursuant to Section 3.2 (in which case Asthmatx shall provide Broncus with reasonable written verification of such Third-Party Payments). Asthmatx shall maintain complete and accurate records
sufficient to enable accurate calculation of royalties and other payments due to Broncus hereunder. Asthmatx shall preserve such records and books of account for a period of three (3) years after the end of the period covered by such records
and books of account, which obligation shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.

 25 








 3.4 Audit Rights. Asthmatx shall permit an independent public accountant designated by Broncus and
reasonably acceptable to Asthmatx, to have access, no more than once in each calendar year during the term of this Agreement and no more than twice during the three (3) calendar years following the expiration or termination of Asthmatx’s
royalty obligations hereunder, during regular business hours and upon at least ten (10) days prior written notice, to Asthmatx’s records and books relating to royalties payable hereunder, for the purpose of determining the accuracy of
Asthmatx Net Sales reported, and royalty payments made, by Asthmatx to Broncus within the one (1) year period immediately preceding such an audit. The independent public accountant shall be under a confidentiality obligation to Asthmatx to
disclose to Broncus only (a) the accuracy of Asthmatx Net Sales reported and the basis for royalty payments made to Broncus under this Agreement, and (b) the difference, if any, by which such reported and paid amounts vary from amounts
determined as a result of the audit. If such examination results in a determination that Asthmatx Net Sales or royalty payments have been understated or overstated, unpaid amounts or refund of overstatement due shall be paid promptly. The fees and
expenses of such accountant shall be paid by Broncus, unless the accountant’s examination results in a determination that Asthmatx Net Sales have been understated, or that payments have been underpaid, by more than ten percent (10%) for
the period examined, in which case Asthmatx shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Broncus in the course of making such determination, including the fees and expenses of such accountant. 
 3.5 Intent. The parties acknowledge and agree that under the terms of the Ntero License Agreement, Broncus has certain obligations to pay
royalties to Ntero with respect to Asthmatx Net Sales, and therefore it is important to Broncus that Asthmatx correctly compute, and timely pay to Broncus, the royalties payable by Asthmatx under this Agreement. 
 4. ASTHMATX COMPLIANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION. 
 4.1
Compliance. Asthmatx acknowledges and agrees that it has received and reviewed a true copy of the Ntero License Agreement. Asthmatx hereby agrees with Broncus not to take any action or omit to take any action, that would cause, or result in, a
breach, violation or default by Broncus under the Ntero License Agreement. 
 4.2 Indemnification. As a material inducement to Broncus
to grant the sublicense granted under Section 2.1 of this Agreement, Asthmatx hereby agrees, as Asthmatx’s expense, to defend Broncus, its directors, officers, employees, and agents, against all third party claims, demands, damages,
liabilities, losses, costs and expenses, including without limitation attorney’s fees (“Claims’) resulting from or arising out of: (a) any breach or violation by Asthmatx of its obligations under Section 2 hereof or
Sections 3.1 through 3.3 above, (b) any act or omission by Asthmatx that causes, or results in, a breach, violation or default by Broncus under the Ntero License Agreement; and/or (c) the development, testing, manufacture, use, sale, offer
for sale, license, importation, exportation, storage, handling, transportation, marketing, distribution or any other disposition of any Ntero Licensed Product by Asthmatx or any Affiliate of Asthmatx; provided, however,
that Asthmtax’s indemnification obligations under the preceding clause (c) of this Section 4.2 shall not apply to the extent that any such Claim results from or arises out of any claim that the Ntero Technology infringes or
misappropriates the intellectual property rights of a third party or results from or arises out of any breach by Ntero of any of Ntero’s representations, warranties or covenants to Broncus under the Ntero License Agreement (collectively
“Excluded Claims”). Asthmatx will pay any liability, damage, loss or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) imposed upon Broncus in any judgment, award or settlement attributable to a Claim for which
Asthmatx has agreed to indemnify Broncus under this Section 4.2 except for Excluded Claims.

treatment sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

 26 








 4.3 Indemnification Procedure. For purposes of Section 4.2 above, Broncus shall give prompt
written notice to Asthmatx of any Claims for which indemnification may be required under Section 4.2; provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not relieve Asthmatx of its obligation to provide
indemnification hereunder except, if and to the extent that such failure materially and adversely affects the ability of Asthmatx to defend the applicable Claim. Asthmatx shall be entitled to assume the defense and control of any such Claim for
which it is obligated to provide indemnification hereunder at its own cost and expense; provided, however, that Broncus shall have the right to be represented by its own counsel at its own cost in connection with the
defense of such Claim. Neither Asthmatx nor Broncus shall settle or dispose of any such Claim in any manner which would adversely affect the rights or interests of the other party (including the obligation to indemnify hereunder) without the prior
written consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Each party shall cooperate with the other party and its counsel in the course of the defense of any such suit, claim or demand, such cooperation to include
without limitation using reasonable efforts to provide or make available documents, information and witnesses. 
 5. COOPERATION AND OTHER MATTERS. 

 5.1 Generally. Asthmatx agrees that it will in good faith exercise reasonable efforts to cooperate with Broncus so that actions
taken by Asthmatx pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement, will not result in breaches or violations by Broncus of the Ntero License Agreement and will not result in Claims by Ntero against Broncus under the Ntero License Agreement. 

5.2 Confidentiality. Asthmatx agrees to comply with and faithfully observe and perform, all of the provisions of Section 10 of the Ntero
License Agreement regarding confidential information. 
 5.3 Patent Enforcement. Asthmatx will notify Broncus promptly in writing of
any infringement of any Ntero Licensed Patent by a third party in the Ntero Field which becomes known to Asthmatx and shall cooperate in any suit, proceeding or dispute involving the infringement of any Licensed Patent to the same extent Broncus is
required to do so under Section 6.4 of the Ntero License Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement will obligate Broncus or Ntero to initiate or maintain any infringement action or other suit or proceeding with respect to any Ntero Licensed Patent
or other Ntero Technology. 
 5.4 Broncus Improvements. Without limiting Asthmatx’s obligations under Sections 4.1 and 5.1
above, in the event that any technology, assets, invention, copyright, trade secret, proprietary information or other asset owned by Asthmatx on the Effective Date constitutes a “Broncus Improvement” (as defined in the Ntero License
Agreement), then Asthmatx shall cooperate with Broncus and grant to Ntero the license rights with respect thereto as provided in, and subject to the terms of, Section 5 of the Ntero License Agreement. 
 5.5 Abandoned Patents. Broncus shall promptly notify Asthmatx of any notice Broncus receives from Ntero with respect to “Abandoned
Patents” (as that term is defined in Section 6 of the Ntero License Agreement). If Broncus declines to take any action to file for, prosecute or maintain any such Abandoned Patent, then, to the extent permitted by the Ntero License
Agreement, if Asthmatx requests Broncus in writing to do so, Broncus shall, at Asthmatx’s sole cost and expense, take action to file for, prosecute and maintain such Abandoned Patent, but Broncus shall have no obligation to incur any cost,
expense or liability in connection therewith and may cease any activity to file for, prosecute or maintain any Abandoned Patent if Asthmatx does not timely pay in full all costs (such as, without limitation, filing fees, attorneys’ fees and
maintenance fees) associated therewith.

 27 








 5.6 Joint Patents. Broncus shall have no obligation whatsoever to Asthmatx to file, prosecute or
maintain any Joint Patent (as that term is defined in Section 6 of the Ntero License Agreement) and Asthmatx acknowledges that it shall have no rights with respect to any Joint Patent. 
 6. TERMINATION. 
 6.1 Termination of Agreement and
Sublicense. If Asthmatx materially breaches any of its obligations, duties or covenants under this Agreement, then Broncus may give Asthmatx written notice of such breach, setting forth the nature of the breach in reasonable detail. If Asthmatx
fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days of its receipt of such notice from Broncus, then Broncus may terminate this Agreement and the sublicense granted to Asthmatx under Section 2 effective immediately upon giving Asthmatx a
written notice of such termination. 
 6.2 Effect of Termination. Termination of this Agreement and/or Asthmatx’s sublicense
granted under Section 2.1 shall not release or relieve Asthmatx from any obligation it has accrued under this Agreement (including but not limited to obligations to pay to Broncus any amount which became due and payable under this Agreement
prior to such termination, such as royalties payable by Asthmatx under Section 3) or Asthmatx’s obligations to defend and indemnify Broncus under Section 4.2. 
 7. MISCELLANEOUS 
 7.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and
interpreted, in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the internal laws of the State of California to
the rights and duties of the parties. 
 7.2 Further Assurances. From time to time on and after the Effective Date, each party shall
at the reasonable request of the other party (a) deliver to such other party such records, data or other documents consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) execute, and deliver or cause to be delivered, all such assignments,
consents, documents or further instruments of transfer or license, and (c) take or cause to be taken all such other actions, as such other party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order for such party to obtain the full benefits of
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. 
 7.3 Limitation of Liability. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO ASTHMATX’S
INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 4.2 AND ASTHMATX’S CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 5.2, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF THE OTHER
PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, HOWEVER CAUSED, UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY. 
 7.4 Force Majeure. Neither party
shall be held responsible for any delay or failure in performance hereunder caused by strikes, embargoes, unexpected government requirements, civil or military authorities, acts of God, earthquake, or by the public enemy or other causes reasonably
beyond such party’s control and without such party’s fault or negligence; provided

waiving party. 
 7.7 Severability. If any provision of any article of this Agreement shall be found by a court to be void, invalid or
unenforceable, the same shall be reformed to comply with applicable law or stricken if not so conformable, so as not to affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement; provided that no such reformation or striking shall be
effective if the result materially changes the economic benefit of this Agreement to either Broncus or Asthmatx. In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void, invalid or
unenforceable, and reformation or striking of such provision would materially change the economic benefit of this Agreement to either Broncus or Asthmatx, then Broncus and Asthmatx shall modify such provision in accordance with this Section 7.7
to obtain a legal, valid and enforceable provision and provide an economic benefit to Broncus and Asthmatx that most nearly effects Broncus’ and Asthmatx’ intent on entering into this Agreement.
