	 	(a)	In further consideration of the licenses granted in clauses 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, if a Milestone is reached, then AVEO shall pay to St Vincent’s the corresponding Milestone Fee, in accordance with this clause 5.2.


  

	 	(b)	AVEO shall provide to St Vincent’s a notice in writing of the occurrence of a Milestone within [**] days after its occurrence, together with payment to St Vincent’s of the relevant Milestone Fee.


  

	 	(c)	In the event that any Milestone is not achieved in the timeframe set out for that Milestone in Schedule 2, then: 

  

	 	(i)	AVEO may pay to St Vincent’s the Milestone Fee corresponding to the relevant Milestone within [**] days after the expiry of the relevant timeframe; and 


 

	 	(ii)	if AVEO pays the Milestone Fee corresponding to the relevant Milestone in accordance with clause 5.2(c)(i), then St Vincent’s shall have no right to terminate this Agreement based on AVEO’s failure to meet
that Milestone. 

  

	 	(d)	If AVEO grants a Sub-license under the Diagnostic License to a Third Party to Exploit Licensed Diagnostic Products in the United States, Europe or Japan before the occurrence of the Milestone for the relevant country
set out in Part B of Schedule 2, then AVEO shall have no obligation to pay the corresponding Milestone Fee for the relevant country, it being understood and agreed that AVEO’s payment of Diagnostic License Commercialisation Income shall be in
lieu of such Milestone Fees for such country. 

  

	5.3	Royalties on Licensed Therapeutic Products 

  

	 	(a)	In further consideration of the Therapeutic License, AVEO shall pay to St Vincent’s royalties on Net Sales of Licensed Therapeutic Products in accordance with this clause 5.3, subject to clauses 5.5 and 5.6.


  

	 	(b)	While the total Net Sales of Licensed Therapeutic Products in the Territory during the then current calendar year are less than USD[**], AVEO shall pay to St Vincent’s: 


 

	 	(i)	a royalty of [**]% of Net Sales of all Licensed Therapeutic Products which are not Reduced Royalty Products; and 

  

	 	(ii)	a royalty of [**]% of Net Sales of all Licensed Therapeutic Products which are Reduced Royalty Products. 

  

	 	(c)	While the total Net Sales of Licensed Therapeutic Products in the Territory during the then current calendar year are greater than USD[**] but less than USD[**], AVEO shall pay to St Vincent’s: 


 

	 	(i)	a royalty of [**]% of Net Sales of all Licensed Therapeutic Products which are not Reduced Royalty Products; and

	 	(i)	a royalty of [**]% of Net Sales of all Licensed Therapeutic Products which are not Reduced Royalty Products; and 

  

	 	(ii)	a royalty of [**]% of Net Sales of all Licensed Therapeutic Products which are Reduced Royalty Products. 


For example, if Net Sales of Licensed Therapeutic Products during a calendar year are USD[**], none of which were Net Sales of Reduced Royalty
Products, then the total royalty payable under this clause 5.3 for such calendar year, subject to clauses 5.5 and 5.6, would be calculated as follows: [**].

	 	(i)	a royalty of [**]% of Net Sales by or on behalf of AVEO or its Affiliates of all Licensed Diagnostic Products which are not Reduced Royalty Products; and 


 

	 	(ii)	a royalty of [**]% of Net Sales by or on behalf of AVEO or its Affiliates of all Licensed Diagnostic Products which are Reduced Royalty Products. 


For example, if Net Sales of Licensed Diagnostic Products during a calendar year are USD[**], none of which were Net Sales of Reduced Royalty
Products, then the total royalty payable under this clause 5.4 for such calendar year, subject to clause 5.6, would be calculated as follows: [**].

	 	(ii)	10 years from First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country. 


  
 19 









	 	(b)	If the last Valid Claim in the Licensed Patent Rights which would Cover a Licensed Product in a particular country expires, lapses, is withdrawn or revoked before the date which is 10 years from First Commercial Sale
Tof the Licensed Product in such country, then it shall become a Reduced Royalty Product and, subject to clause 5.5(a), the royalties payable on Net Sales of such Licensed Product are reduced in accordance with the applicable subclause (ii) in
clause 5.3 or 5.4 (as applicable). 

  

	 	(c)	Upon expiry of all AVEO’s obligations under this clause 5 to pay license fees, Milestone Fees, royalties and Diagnostic License Commercialisation Income, AVEO shall have fully paid up, perpetual, irrevocable
licenses for all remaining Licensed Know How in existence post expiry of the Licensed Patent Rights.

	 	(a)	a product which contains or includes a MIC-1 antagonist other than a Licensed Therapeutic Product (a “MIC-1 Competitor”) is granted a general marketing Authorisation by a Government Agency in the
Therapeutic Field in a country in the Territory in which the Licensed Therapeutic Product’s Exploitation is not Covered by a Valid Claim in the Licensed Patent Rights, and the MIC-1 Competitor is commercially launched and sold by any Person
other than AVEO, its Affiliates or Sub-licensees in that country for use in the Therapeutic Field; and 

  

	 	(b)	AVEO can demonstrate by reference to IMS supported or similar independent data that either:

then as from the first month where either of the criteria in paragraph (b)(i) or (ii) has occurred, the royalty payable by AVEO on Net
Sales of that Licensed Therapeutic Product in that county under clause 5.3 shall be reduced by [**]% for as long as the sales of the MIC-1 Competitor continue to have either of the effects referred to in paragraphs (b)(i) and (ii). 

 

	5.7	Payment of royalties and Diagnostic License Commercialisation Income 

  

	 	(a)	AVEO shall pay to St Vincent’s all royalties payable under clauses 5.3 and 5.4 Quarterly in arrears within [**] days after the end of each Quarter in which Net Sales are made.

aggregate amount payable by AVEO under this clause 5.8(a) shall not exceed USD[**]. 

  

	 	(c)	In the event that AVEO grants one or more Sub-licenses under the Therapeutic License in any of the Major Territories before Milestone 3 of Part A of Schedule 2 [**], then the amounts of the Milestone Fees set out in
Part A of Schedule 2 shall be increased as follows:

that material breach within [**] days after receipt of notice from the other party of the material breach requesting that the material breach be remedied; or

	 	(a)	It is the intention of the parties that: 

  

	 	(i)	the occurrence of an Insolvency Event in respect of St Vincent’s will not, in itself, impact AVEO’s rights under this Agreement, nor adversely impact the right of St Vincent’s (or its successors or
assigns) to receive payments; 

  

	 	(ii)	upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Event in respect of St Vincent’s, AVEO, as a licensee of such rights under this Agreement, will retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections; and


  

	 	(iii)	upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Event in respect of St Vincent’s, AVEO shall pay to St Vincent’s (or its successors or assigns), in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, all Milestone Fees,
royalties and other payments which would have been payable to St Vincent’s pursuant to this Agreement by AVEO, but for the Insolvency Event. 

  

	 	(b)	The provisions of this clause 15.3 are without prejudice to any rights either party (or their respective successors or assigns) may have arising under any applicable insolvency statute or other applicable Law and are
effective only to the extent permitted by applicable Law. 


  
 38 









	15.4	Termination by St Vincent’s 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to clause 15.4(b), St Vincent’s may terminate this Agreement on 30 days’ notice in writing if AVEO or its Affiliates or any Sub-licensee of AVEO or its Affiliates challenges or contests the validity,
enforceability or registration of any Licensed Patent Rights (a “Patent Challenge”), or causes or induces any other person to make a Patent Challenge. 


 

	 	(b)	If the only Patent Challenge identified in a notice given by St Vincent’s under clause 15.4(a) was made, caused or induced by a Sub-licensee (and such Patent Challenge by the Sub-licensee was not itself caused or
induced by AVEO), and the Sub-licensee has withdrawn such Patent Challenge before the end of the 30 day notice period, then such notice shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.

	 	(b)	Subject to clause 15.5(c), AVEO may terminate this Agreement after the first anniversary of the Effective Date upon no less than 6 months’ prior written notice to St Vincent’s in the event AVEO terminates its
MIC-1 research and development programs: 

  

	 	(i)	as a result of failure of Licensed Therapeutic Products in pre-clinical or clinical development; or 

  

	 	(ii)	if AVEO forms the reasonable view that further MIC-1 research and development is not commercially viable. 

  

	 	(c)	Clause 15.5(b) does not apply, and the right referred to in clause 15.5(b) is not exercisable, if AVEO is in breach of any obligation under this Agreement. 


 

	15.6	Lapse, withdrawal etc. of certain Patent Rights 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to clause 15.6(b), AVEO may terminate this Agreement on 60 days’ notice in writing if all Patent Rights in the patent applications set forth in Schedule 4 lapse, are withdrawn, are revoked, cancelled or

	 	(b)	Clause 15.6(a) does not apply, and the right referred to in clause 15.6(a) is not exercisable, if: 

  

	 	(i)	AVEO is in material breach of any obligation under this Agreement (including a failure to make a payment); or 

  

	 	(ii)	AVEO or its Affiliates or any Sub-licensee of AVEO or its Affiliates has challenged or contested the validity, enforceability or registration of any Licensed Patent Rights, or has caused or induced any other person to
do so. 

  

	15.7	Consequences of termination – default or election by AVEO 

  

	 	(a)	If this Agreement is terminated by AVEO under clause 15.5(b)(ii) before the first Milestone Fee in Part A of Schedule 2 falls due, then AVEO shall pay to St Vincent’s the first Milestone Fee in Part A of Schedule 2
on the date of termination. 


  
 39 









	 	(b)	If this Agreement is terminated by AVEO under clause 15.5(b)(ii) after the first Milestone Fee in Part A of Schedule 2 has fallen due but before the second Milestone Fee in Part A of Schedule 2 falls due, then AVEO
shall pay to St Vincent’s the second Milestone Fee in Part A of Schedule 2 on the date of termination. 

  

	 	(c)	If this Agreement is terminated by AVEO under clause 15.5(b) or in its entirety by St Vincent’s under clause 15.2 or 15.4, then: 


 

	 	(i)	by this Agreement AVEO grants to St Vincent’s a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, free license (with the right to Sub-license and grant sub-licenses to Affiliates), under: (a) all IPR in AVEO
Improvements, and (b) subject to paragraph (iii), all Know How of AVEO or its Affiliates relating to the research, reduction to practise or development of Licensed Therapeutic Products, Licensed Diagnostic Products and Licensed Processes, to:


  

	 	(A)	Exploit Licensed Therapeutic Products and Licensed Diagnostic Products in the Territory; and 

  

	 	(B)	practice or have practiced Licensed Processes in the Therapeutic Field and the Diagnostic Field in the Territory; 

  

	 	(ii)	AVEO shall deliver to St Vincent’s within [**] days after the date of termination, all information comprising the AVEO Improvements and Know How referred to in paragraph (i); and 


 

	 	(iii)	the license in paragraph (i) does not include a license under the Know How of an Affiliate of AVEO which Controls AVEO, which Know How was created before the date on which such Affiliate became an Affiliate of
AVEO. 

  

	15.8	Sub-licensees in good standing 

 If: 

 

	 	(a)	this Agreement is terminated: (i) in its entirety by St Vincent’s under clause 15.2(a); or (ii) in part by St Vincent’s under clause 15.11, for failure by AVEO to make a payment under this Agreement;


  

	 	(b)	before the date on which notice of termination was given under clause 15.2(a) AVEO had granted a Sub-license which complies with clause 2.5(c) and includes provisions to substantially the same effect as those set out in
Schedule 6 (an “Eligible Sub-license”) which terminates, or terminates in part, as a result of the termination referred to in paragraph (a); 

  

	 	(c)	the Sub-licensee under the Eligible Sub-license: (i) is not and was not in material breach of any obligation in the Sub-license agreement; and (ii) did not contribute by any act or omission to the events that
led to such termination (or partial termination) and is and was otherwise in good standing under the Sub-licence agreement; and (iii) has not challenged or contested the validity, enforceability or registration of any Licensed Patent Rights, or
caused or induced any other person to do so; and 

  

	 	(d)	within [**] days of the date of termination of this Agreement (or partial termination) the Sub-licensee: (i) notifies St Vincent’s in writing of its desire to become a direct licensee of St Vincent’s on
the terms and conditions of the Eligible Sub-license; and (ii) pays to St Vincent’s all amounts which became due and payable by AVEO under this Agreement but which were unpaid as of the date of termination of this Agreement (or partial
termination), 


  
 40 








 then St Vincent’s shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to entering into a new license
agreement with such Sub-licensee on the terms and conditions of the Eligible Sub-license, insofar as it relates to a Sub-license under the Therapeutic License or Diagnostic License, on terms that: (i) the Sub-licensee is a direct licensee of St
Vincent’s under the Licensed IP rather than AVEO; (ii) all obligations owed by the Sub-licensee to AVEO under the Eligible Sub-license are owed to St Vincent’s; and (iii) the Sub-licensee indemnifies and keeps indemnified St
Vincent’s, its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents from any Claim, and against any Loss as a result of or in respect of any Claim, which may be brought or commenced by the Sub-licensee, its
Affiliates or any Person claiming by or through the Sub-licensee or its Affiliates in respect of any breach by AVEO of the Eligible Sub-license or any of its representations, warranties or obligations under it. 

 

	15.9	Regulatory approvals 

 If this Agreement is terminated by St Vincent’s, or by AVEO
under clause 15.5(b), then within [**] days after the date of termination, AVEO shall, and shall ensure that its Affiliates: 
  

	 	(a)	transfer to St Vincent’s or its nominee all Authorisations held by it or its Affiliates to commercially Exploit Licensed Products in any country in the Territory; 


 

	 	(b)	to the extent any Authorisation referred to in paragraph (a) is not transferrable or assignable under the laws of any jurisdiction, hold the benefit of the Authorisation on trust for St Vincent’s or its
nominee; and 

  

	 	(c)	deliver to St Vincent’s or its nominee copies of all documents (in any form or media) held by AVEO or its Affiliates in relation to each Authorisation referred to in paragraph (a), including all files and dossiers
held during the Term in order to comply with any applicable Laws or requirements of any Government Agency. 

  

	15.10	Return or destruction of Confidential Information 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to clauses 15.10(b), within [**] days after termination of this Agreement: 

  

	 	(i)	St Vincent’s shall return to AVEO or destroy at AVEO’s election all Confidential Information of AVEO in the possession, custody or power of St Vincent’s or any of its Affiliates, other than the
information referred to in clause 15.7(c), if applicable; and 

  

	 	(ii)	AVEO shall return to St Vincent’s or destroy at St Vincent’s election all Confidential Information of St Vincent’s, all Licensed Know How and all St Vincent’s Research Tools in the possession,
custody or power of AVEO or any of its Affiliates and Sub-licensees. 

  

	 	(b)	Each party may retain in its legal department a single copy of the Confidential Information of the other party the purpose of for record keeping and to fulfil the requirements of any applicable Laws. 


 

	15.11	Alternatives to termination 

 If St Vincent’s has a right to terminate this
Agreement under clause 14.3, 15.2(a) or 15.4, then in addition to any other rights St Vincent’s may have and subject to clause 15.12, St Vincent’s may in its discretion: 

 

	 	(a)	terminate this Agreement as to any particular country, state or territory in the Territory; 


  
 41 









	 	(b)	terminate this Agreement as to a particular Licensed Product; 

  

	 	(c)	terminate this Agreement as to a particular Licensed Process; 

  

	 	(d)	terminate this Agreement as to certain parts of the Therapeutic Field or the Diagnostic Field; 

  

	 	(e)	terminate this Agreement as to particular Licensed IP; or 

  

	 	(f)	by notice in writing convert the Therapeutic License to a non-exclusive license as a whole or: 

  

	 	(i)	as to any particular country, state or territory in the Territory; 

  

	 	(ii)	as to a particular Licensed Therapeutic Product; 

  

	 	(iii)	as to a particular Licensed Process; 

  

	 	(iv)	as to certain parts of the Therapeutic Field; or 

  

	 	(v)	as to particular Licensed IP. 

  

	15.12	Restrictions on partial termination 

 If St Vincent’s exercises its rights under
clause 15.11 to partially terminate rights granted under this Agreement, then it shall do so with respect to the applicable country, state or territory in the Territory, Licensed Product, Licensed Process, portion of the Therapeutic Field or
Diagnostic Field, or Licensed IP in relation to which St Vincent’s right to terminate this Agreement arose. For example, if St Vincent’s exercises its rights under clause 15.11 to partially terminate rights granted under this Agreement as
a result of an uncured material breach by AVEO of its obligation to achieve the Milestone for Marketing Approval for a Licensed Diagnostic Product in Japan, St Vincent’s may do so with respect to Japan or with respect to Licensed Diagnostic
Products, but not with respect to the US (and not Japan) or with respect to Licensed Therapeutic Products (and not Licensed Diagnostic Products). 
  

	15.13	Survival and accrued rights 

 Upon termination under this clause 15 or otherwise, this
Agreement is at an end as to its future operation except for: 
  

	 	(a)	the enforcement of any right or Claim which arises on or has arisen before termination; and 

  

	 	(b)	the rights and obligations of the parties under clauses 1, 6.1, 6.3, 6.4, clauses 8.3(b), 8.3(c) and 8.7 (with respect to any Infringement Claim commenced before the date of termination), and clauses 9, 12, 13, 15, 16,
17 and 19, which survive termination in accordance with their terms; and 

  

	 	(c)	the rights and obligations of the parties under clause 5 and clause 6.3 with respect to: 

  

	 	(i)	any Milestone occurring before the date of termination; 

  

	 	(ii)	any Net Sales of Licensed Products before the date of termination; and 

  

	 	(iii)	any Diagnostic License Commercialisation Income derived from any relevant assignment, Sub-licensing or other dealing before the date of termination.

 SCHEDULE 6 

Sub-license Provisions 
  

	[X.1]	Termination of Head License 

  

	 	(a)	AVEO shall notify the Sub-licensee promptly in writing in the event the [definition of this Agreement in the Sub-license agreement] (the “Head License Agreement”), or any part of it which relates
to the license granted to the Sub-licensee under the [definition of the Therapeutic License or Diagnostic License, as the case may be, in the Sub-license agreement] terminates for any reason. 


 

	 	(b)	Subject to clause [X.1(d)], if the Head License Agreement terminates for any reason, then this [definition of the Sub-license agreement in the Sub-license agreement] (the “Sub-license Agreement”)
terminates immediately. 

  

	 	(c)	Subject to clause [X.1(d)], if any part of the Head License Agreement which relates to the license granted to the Sub-licensee under the [definition of the Therapeutic License or Diagnostic License, as the case may
be, in the Sub-license agreement] terminates for any reason, then that part of this Sub-licence Agreement which relates to the license granted to the Sub-licensee under the [definition of the Therapeutic License or Diagnostic License, as the
case may be, in the Sub-license agreement] terminates immediately. 

  

	 	(d)	St Vincent’s has agreed with AVEO that if: 

  

	 	(i)	the Head License Agreement is terminated in its entirety or insofar as it relates to the license granted to the Sub-licensee under the [definition of the Therapeutic License or Diagnostic License, as the case may be,
in the Sub-license agreement], by St Vincent’s for failure by AVEO to make a payment under the Head License Agreement;

 SCHEDULE 7 

Press Release 
 MEDIA
RELEASE 
 EMBARGOED UNTIL, [insert] June 2012 

St Vincent’s announces patent licence agreement with AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 

Sydney, [insert date], 2012 - St Vincent’s Hospital Sydney today announced the signing of a global exclusive patent license agreement with
AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a U.S.-based biotechnology company focussed on the development and delivery of cancer therapeutics to patients. Under the terms of the licence, AVEO has obtained worldwide rights to develop and commercialise antibodies
against Macrophage Inhibitory Cytokine (MIC-1, or GDF15) for the prevention and treatment of cancer anorexia/cachexia. Cachexia is a serious and common, but underestimated and under-recognised, medical consequence of cancer and several other chronic
illnesses. 
 “St Vincent’s is excited by the prospect of seeing its technology developed to treat this condition for which there is currently no
highly effective therapy,” said Jonathan Anderson, CEO of St Vincent’s Hospital Sydney Limited. “The agreement reflects St Vincent’s ongoing commitment to cutting edge cancer research and the development of new therapies.”

 St Vincent’s will receive an upfront payment, payment on completion of future milestones and royalties on future sales. Under the license agreement,
AVEO will be responsible for future development and product commercialization. St Vincent’s will continue to advance its research in the MIC-1 antibody field and has agreed to provide AVEO with a first right to access improvements. 

About MIC-1 
 Macrophage Inhibitory Cytokine (otherwise
known as Growth Differentiation Factor-15 (GDF-15)) is a member of the Transforming Growth Factor-ß (TGF-ß) cytokine family. Professor Samuel Breit and co-workers at St Vincent’s Centre for Applied Medical Research have been a
leading international group in studies of this important protein.
