	 	3.1	Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, CPF hereby grants to ProNAi and its Affiliates: 


3.1.1 an exclusive, royalty-bearing, worldwide licence under the Licensed Intellectual Property, with the right to sublicence in
accordance with the remainder of this Article 3, to research, develop, use, keep, make, have made, import, sell, offer for sale and otherwise dispose of Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory for the Term, provided that ProNAi shall remain
fully liable for the performance of its Affiliates and the compliance of any Affiliate exercising rights under the foregoing licence grant or performing activities under this Agreement as if they were the acts of ProNAi itself. Notwithstanding the
foregoing exclusive licence grant, ProNAi acknowledges and agrees that with respect to any Licensed Intellectual Property that is not owned by nor exclusively licensed to CPF (including Non-Compound Intellectual Property, any Intellectual Property
that CPF Controls pursuant to the MTAs and Biomarkers other than Exclusive Biomarkers) (the “Non-Exclusive Licensed Intellectual Property”), CPF has only non-exclusive rights in such Non-Exclusive Licensed Intellectual Property, and
therefore the foregoing licence grant is exclusive only with respect to CPF’s rights, and not with respect to any rights of any Third Party (including CPF’s licensors), in such Non-Exclusive Licensed Intellectual Property; and 

3.1.2 a non-exclusive, worldwide licence under any Patents or Know-How that are not included in the Licensed Intellectual Property and
are otherwise Controlled by CPF or its Affiliates after the Effective Date (including, for clarity, any Patents and Know-How acquired or licensed by CPF from any Third Party after the Effective Date) that are necessary for ProNAi to practice the
Licensed Patents, or the Licensed Know-How in connection with the

development and commercialization of Licensed Products in accordance with this Agreement (the “Additional CPF Intellectual Property”), in each case solely to the extent such
Additional CPF Intellectual Property is Controlled by CPF, and solely to the extent that either (a) CPF does not owe a payment obligation under such Additional CPF Intellectual Property to any Third Party for the grant of such sublicence to
ProNAi, or (b) if CPF owes a payment obligation under such Additional CPF Intellectual Property to a Third Party for the grant of such sublicence to ProNAi, that ProNAi has agreed in writing to make such payments to such Third Party, provided
that nothing in this Clause 3.1.2 shall be deemed to constitute any obligation for CPF to disclose any Know-How or other Confidential Information to ProNAi that is not included within the Licensed Know-How. If CPF owes a payment obligation under
such Additional CPF Intellectual Property to a Third Party for the grant of such sublicence to ProNAi, then CPF shall promptly notify ProNAi in writing after execution of the agreement with the Third Party for the applicable Additional CPF
Intellectual Property and provide to ProNAi the applicable details of the payments owing to such Third Party. If ProNAi does not agree in writing to make the applicable payments to such Third Party, then such Additional CPF Intellectual Property
shall not be included within the scope of the foregoing licence grant.

Licensee in developing Compound Intellectual Property. For the avoidance of doubt, in relation to any Exclusive Biomarkers: (a) CRT, CRUK and ICR (including use by scientists funded and
employed by ICR and CRUK) shall be entitled to use such Biomarkers for the purpose of scientific research carried out in accordance with their respective charitable and academic status, whether alone or in collaboration with others and whether
sponsored or funded, in whole or in part, by any person including a commercial entity (and including any clinical research focused on any CHK1 Inhibitor developed by a Third Party) but shall (unless in accordance with (b) below) only make
available to any Third Party any Biomarkers which have been demonstrated not to be Exclusive Biomarkers; (b) CRT, CRUK and ICR shall be entitled to make available such Biomarkers to any Third Party for the purpose of an evaluation only and in
making such Biomarkers available, neither CRT, CRUK nor ICR shall disclose any Confidential Information of ProNAi available to such Third Party (for the avoidance of doubt, CRT and/or ICR and/or CRUK shall be permitted to disclose to such Third
Party any Know How included within Non-Compound Intellectual Property and Know How concerning Biomarkers other than Exclusive Biomarkers); 

3.3.2 make publications in relation to the Licensed Intellectual Property and any results of research using the same to the extent
that it is within CRT’s or ICR’s or CRUK’s control in accordance with Clause 27.4; provided that to the extent that CPF has such rights under the Upstream Licence Agreement, (a) CPF shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that
reasonably in advance of any such publication the proposed manuscript will be provided to ProNAi for review and removal of any ProNAi Confidential Information (other than the Licensed Confidential Information) and (b) upon request by ProNAi,
and to the extent within CPF’s control under the Upstream Licence Agreement, CPF will delay any publication if necessary to file patent applications on patentable subject matter; 

3.3.3 transfer the Licensed Materials and samples of Materials which are the subject of the Licensed Patents to academic or other
not-for-profit Third Parties solely for the purpose of non-commercial research, provided that to the extent within CPF’s control under the Upstream Licence Agreement, CPF shall use

reasonable efforts to ensure that such transfer occurs pursuant to a written agreement that provides for the recipient to grant to ICR and or CRUK, with the right to grant sublicenses to CPF (and
the right to grant sub-sublicenses to ProNAi) a licence under any Intellectual Property that is generated by such recipient through the use of the Licensed Materials or such Materials that are the subject of the Licensed Patents; and

to exercise its rights pursuant to Clauses 3.3.1 to 3.3.2, but not otherwise. 
  

	 	3.4	If ProNAi reasonably believes that pursuing an Oncology Indication is likely to result in a product which would offer no substantial benefit to the patient population over existing drugs, or drugs in development,
for the Oncology Indications for which the Licensed Product would be most suitable, or if ProNAi wishes to develop and commercialise (or grant rights to a Third Party to develop or commercialise) a Licensed Product in an Indication other than an
Oncology Indication (an “Other Indication”), then in such circumstances ProNAi shall provide written notice to CPF setting out its reasons, with supporting evidence, for such belief (“Other Indication Notice”),
provided that (a) subject to providing an Other Indication Notice to CPF, ProNAi shall not need to obtain the consent of CPF (or CRT or CRUK) to pursue (or to grant rights to any Sub-Licensee to pursue) development and commercialization of a
Licensed Product in an Other Indication concurrently with development and commercialization of Licensed Products in an Oncology Indication, provided that ProNAi complies with its obligations under this Agreement, including pursuant to Clauses 4.4
and 4.5, in an Oncology Indication. 

 If ProNAi (or its Sub-licensee, where such Sub-licensee is the party developing and
commercializing Licensed Products in an Oncology Indication) is providing an Other Indication Notice to CPF where ProNAi (or any Sub-Licensee) is proposing to cease or scale back development and commercialization in all Oncology Indications (such
that ProNAi would no longer meet its obligations under Clauses 4.4 and 4.5 in any Oncology Indication), but ProNAi (or such Sub-Licensee) intends to progress (or continue to progress) development and commercialization in an Other Indication, then
[*] ProNAi shall [*] for an Oncology Indication. Specifically, ProNAi shall [*] with the purpose of

result of the [*] shall not be [*] and shall not be [*] Oncology Indication under this Agreement, and (b) [*] and (ii) [*] or (iii) [*] in an Oncology Indication[*] shall be amended such that [*] shall apply in each case thereafter
with respect to [*]. If, at [*] negotiation period, [*] believes there is [*] (which may involve [*]) to [*]. Following [*], the parties will [*]. If such [*], [*] will [*], whether to [*]. 

 

	 	3.5	ProNAi shall be entitled to grant sub-licences (through multiple tiers) in respect of the rights granted under this Agreement, provided that with respect to any sub-licence granted to an entity (including any
sub-sub-licence): 

 3.5.1 any sub-licence granted by ProNAi shall be expressed to terminate automatically on the
termination of this Agreement for any reason. On such termination and provided the termination of this Agreement was not caused by a breach of the obligations under the relevant sub-licence CPF shall immediately grant to the affected Sub-Licensee a
sub-licence on materially the same terms to that contained in the terminated sub-licence, save that this shall not result in CPF taking on any more onerous obligations or assuming any liability other than it is under pursuant to this Agreement. CPF
shall continue to pay to ProNAi such sums as it would have received under the terminated sub-licence less the amount which ProNAi would have had to pay CPF pursuant to this Agreement and less any Patent Costs or other costs which would have been
borne by ProNAi under such sublicence agreement, but for the termination of this Agreement, provided that if such Patent Costs or other costs exceed the amounts payable to ProNAi after such termination, CPF, and not ProNAi, shall be liable for any
such excess costs. For the avoidance of doubt, expiry of this Agreement consequent upon the expiry of the Term of this Agreement shall not result in the automatic termination of any sub-licence; 

3.5.2 ProNAi shall ensure that there are included in the terms of any sub-licence substantially equivalent obligations and
undertakings on the part of the Sub-Licensee to those applying to ProNAi in this Agreement (except this Clause 3.5 3.5.1). In particular, ProNAi shall ensure that any sub-licence has provisions which secure CPF, CRT’s and ICR’s (as the
case may be) rights pursuant to Clause 8.8 and 

  
 *Confidential Treatment
Requested. 
 - 25 - 










			
	EXECUTION VERSION	 	CONFIDENTIAL

  

 
8.9 (Patent enforcement), Clause 10 (indemnity for CPF Indemnified Parties), Clause 13 (Confidentiality) and Clause 15.1.8 (CPF’s rights on termination). ProNAi shall additionally ensure
that there are included in the terms of any sub-licence substantially equivalent obligations and undertakings to those set out in the Sub-Licence Provisions, and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to ensure that all Sub-Licensees duly comply
with the same. 
 3.5.3 within thirty (30) Business Days of the grant of any sub-licence, ProNAi shall provide CPF with a true
copy of such sub-licence at ProNAi’s expense; provided that ProNAi may redact any terms that are unnecessary for CPF to determine compliance with this Agreement as a whole, and provided further that such copy shall include the name of the
sub-licensee, unredacted; 
 3.5.4 no sub-licence shall knowingly be granted to a Tobacco Party, provided that if, following the
grant of such a sub-licence, either Party becomes aware that such Sub-licensee is a Tobacco Party, then ProNAi shall promptly notify CPF, and shall forthwith terminate such sub-license; 

3.5.5 the sub-licence shall be entered into on an arms-length basis; 

3.5.6 Any act or omission of any Sub-Licensee which, if it were the act or omission of ProNAi would be a breach of any of the
provisions of this Agreement, will be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by ProNAi who will be liable to CPF (as the case may be) accordingly. 
  

	 	3.6	The foregoing obligations shall not apply in relation to contracts ProNAi enters into with Third Party Service Providers, provided that: (a) such contracts relate to the provision of research, development
and/or manufacturing services to ProNAi in connection with the Licensed Products; and (b) no rights are granted to the Third Party to: (i) research, develop or manufacture its own products; or (ii) sell Licensed Products. ProNAi will
ensure that an appropriate written agreement is put in place with each Third Party Service Provider.

	EXECUTION VERSION	 	CONFIDENTIAL

  


	 	
has not been completed [*] days following the Effective Date, the Parties will promptly meet to discuss in good faith the steps to be taken to procure the transfer of the Product CTAs as soon as

	 	5.2	CPF has prepared a statement of the Phase I Trial Costs incurred as of the Effective Date, which is attached to this Agreement as in Schedule 11. Simultaneous with the execution of this Agreement, CPF shall provide
ProNAi with all matching invoices evidencing the Phase I Trial Costs set forth in Schedule 11. 

  

	 	5.3	CPF shall pay to ProNAi within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Effective Date, the Phase I Development Contribution, less the Phase I Trial Costs incurred as of the Effective Date (as set forth in Schedule
11). CPF shall have no obligation to incur Phase I Trial Costs in excess of [*]. If CPF incurs Phase I Trial Costs after the Effective Date CPF shall provide ProNAi with an invoice from CRUK for such Phase I Trial Costs, and ProNAi shall pay such
amount to CPF within thirty (30) days following the receipt of such invoice. Such process shall continue until up to sixty (60) days after the Product CTA Transfer Date, at which point only invoices that have been received by ProNAi shall
be deemed to be included in the final statement of CPF Phase I Trial Costs. 

  

	 	5.4	Following the successful completion of the Product CTA Transfer Date ProNAi shall pay to CPF the following amount (as applicable based on the Product CTA Transfer Date) (the “Product CTA
Payment”), to be made as specified in Clause 6.2.2: (a) [*] two million dollars (USD $2,000,000)[*], then [*]. 

  

	 	5.5	ProNAi shall pay the payments (“Milestone Payment”) to CPF one-time upon the first occurrence of each of the events (“Milestone Event”) in relation to the first Licensed Product
to achieve the applicable Milestone Event as set out in Schedule 6. For clarity, if a second or subsequent Licensed Product obtains Registration for a different Indication than the Indication for which the first Licensed Product (or such second
Licensed Product, as applicable) has achieved Registration, the Milestone Payments due for Registration of a Licensed Product in a second and/or third Indication will be payable upon the achievement of Registration in each applicable country for the
first (different) Indication for such second and/or subsequent Licensed Product, provided that each of the Milestone Payments for the first, second and third Indications for Licensed Product shall be paid only once, irrespective of how many Licensed
Products achieve each such Milestone Event. 

  

	 	5.6	Subject to any more favourable arrangements concluded pursuant to Clause 5, ProNAi shall pay to CPF the royalties on Net Sales as set out in Schedule 6 on a Licensed Product by Licensed Product, and country by
country basis until the later of:

sub-licence, which results in greater payments being received by ProNAi than would be received if the definition of Net Sales as defined in this Agreement and/or the royalty term and/or a reduction for generic competition as set out in Clause 5, had
been used, the definition of Net Sales and/or Clause 5 shall be amended to match that in the sub-licence in respect of all royalties payable from sales under such sub-licence. 


 

	 	5.9	Within sixty (60) days after the end of each Quarter following the First Commercial Sale of Licensed Product, ProNAi shall send to CPF a written statement detailing in respect of that Quarter (including a
nil report if appropriate):

	 	6.4	All costs of transmission and currency conversion shall be borne by ProNAi. 

  

	 	6.5	Tax. 

  

	 	6.5.1	All payments to CPF under this Agreement are expressed to be exclusive of indirect taxes (such as value added tax, sales tax, consumption tax and other similar taxes (“Indirect Taxes”)) howsoever
arising. ProNAi shall pay all accurately applied Indirect Taxes to CPF in addition to those payments or, if earlier, on receipt of a tax invoice or invoices from CPF as applicable, all Indirect Taxes for which CPF is liable to account in relation to
any supply made or deemed to be made for value added tax purposes pursuant to this Agreement, such Indirect Taxes to be payable on the due date of the payment of the Payments to which such Indirect Taxes relate. The Parties shall issue invoices for

	 	6.5.2	 If ProNAi is required by law to make any such tax deduction or withholding, ProNAi shall be entitled to
deduct and withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such taxes as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of Applicable Law. ProNAi shall: (i) deduct those taxes from such payment, (ii) timely
remit the taxes to the proper taxing authority, and (iii) promptly give CPF proper evidence as to the deduction or withholding and payment over of the tax deducted or withheld; provided, however, that before making any such deduction or
withholding, ProNAi shall give CPF notice of the intention to make such deduction or withholding (such notice, which shall include the authority, basis and method of calculation for the proposed deduction or withholding, shall be given at least a
reasonable period of time before such deduction or withholding is required, in order for such other Party to obtain reduction of or relief from such deduction or withholding). ProNAi shall give reasonable assistance to CPF to claim refunds or

exemption from such deductions or withholdings under any relevant agreement or treaty which is in effect to ensure that any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to this Clause 6.5.2 are
reduced in amount to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws. Any and all expenses incurred by ProNAi in providing such assistance shall be fully reimbursed by CPF. In addition, the Parties shall cooperate in accordance with applicable Laws
to minimize withholding in connection with this Agreement; provided that subject to Clause 6.5.3, such cooperation shall not prohibit ProNAi from making changes to its business in due course. 


 

	 	6.5.3	Tax Gross-up. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either Party (or its assignee pursuant to Clause 17.1.2) takes any action (including an assignment pursuant to Clause 17.1.2) and if as a result of such
action, such Party (or its assignee pursuant to Clause 17.1.2) is required by applicable Law to withhold taxes, or if such action results in the imposition of Indirect Taxes that were not otherwise applicable, from or in respect of any amount
payable under this Agreement, and such withholding taxes or Indirect Taxes exceed the amount of withholding taxes or Indirect Taxes that would have been applicable if such action had not occurred, then any such amount payable shall be increased to
take into account such increased withholding taxes or Indirect Taxes as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings (including withholdings on the withheld amounts) and/or paying such Indirect Taxes, as the case may be, the
other Party (or its assignee pursuant to Clause 17.1.2) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such increased withholding been made and no such Indirect Taxes had been imposed; provided, however, that the paying Party will
have no obligation to pay any additional amount under the immediately preceding clause to the extent that such increased withholding tax or such Indirect Taxes would not have been imposed but for (A) the assignment by the other Party pursuant
to Clause 17.1.2 of its rights under this Agreement or any redomiciliation of the other Party outside of the United States (in the case of ProNAi) or the United Kingdom (in the case of CPF), to the extent such assignment or redomiciliation occurs
after the initial action by the paying Party described in the first sentence of this Clause 6.5.3 or (B) the failure by the other Party to comply with the requirements of Clause 6.5.2.

payments made under this Agreement to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding for taxes. 

  

	 	6.6	Where the payee does not receive payment of any undisputed sums properly due and payable to it under this Agreement within the relevant period, interest shall accrue on the sum due and owing at the rate
equivalent to an annual rate of two percent (2%) over the then current base rate of LIBOR, calculated on a daily basis, without prejudice to payee’s right to receive payment within the relevant period, provided always the provisions of
this Clause shall not apply to the extent and for the period that a Force Majeure event prevents payment. 

  

	7.	ACCOUNTS 

  

	 	7.1	ProNAi shall: 

 7.1.1 keep and notwithstanding the expiry or termination of this
Agreement, maintain and shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to procure that each Sub-Licensee keeps and maintains, for at least [*] years, true and accurate accounts and records (including any underlying documents supporting such accounts
and records) in sufficient detail to enable the amount of all sums payable under this Agreement (including determination of any permissible deductions set forth in subclauses (i) through (vi) of the definition of Net Sales) to be

	 	8.3	Subject to Clauses 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6, ProNAi shall have the right to control the filing, prosecuting and maintaining the Licensed Patents in CRT’s sole name and will use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to

	 	8.4	ProNAi shall keep CPF reasonably informed in advance of the filing and prosecution strategy for the Licensed Patents, and shall take into consideration all comments received from CPF in respect thereof. If ProNAi
elects not to file a Patent application, in any Target Patent Country ProNAi shall promptly notify CPF of such decision and CPF shall have the right (but not the obligation) to file such an application. If CPF elects to exercise such right by notice
in writing to ProNAi, CPF shall thereafter be solely responsible for the expense of filing, prosecuting and maintaining the corresponding Patent, which shall be excluded from the definition of Licensed Patents and the licence granted under Clause
3.1. 

  

	 	8.5	ProNAi shall keep CPF reasonably informed in writing as to the prosecution and/or maintenance status of the Licensed Patents and shall promptly provide CPF with a copy of all material submissions made to or
material responses received from the relevant Patent offices and all correspondence to and responses received from the relevant Patent agent in relation to the Licensed Patents in each applicable country of the Territory. ProNAi shall use
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to notify CPF at least three (3) months prior to any restriction of scope of any of the Licensed Patents. 

  

	 	8.6	If ProNAi elects not to prosecute and/or maintain any part of the Licensed Patents in any Target Patent Country, ProNAi shall notify CPF in writing and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to ensure that
such notice is given at least [*] prior to the expiration of any applicable time bars. During the aforementioned [*] notice period, ProNAi shall continue to prosecute and maintain the Licensed Patents in question. On the expiry of such notice
period: 

 8.6.1 the licence granted pursuant to Clause 3.1 shall terminate in respect of the Licensed Patents
identified in such notice; and 
 8.6.2 ProNAi shall, at CPF’s request, promptly transfer to CPF any and all documents and
information in ProNAi’s control relating to such Licensed Patents; and 
 8.6.3 CPF shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to prosecute (or abandon) such Licensed Patents at its sole discretion and to grant rights thereunder to any person without further reference to ProNAi.

	 	8.7	Each Party will promptly notify the other Parties in writing as soon as it becomes aware of any infringement or suspected infringement by a Third Party of any of the Licensed Patents or any unauthorised use of
the Licensed Know How or the Licensed Materials in the Field (an “Infringement Action”). 

  

	 	8.8	Provided ProNAi has a licence under this Agreement in relation to the relevant Licensed Patent and country (and where local law permits), within such country ProNAi may at its sole discretion: 


8.8.1 at its own cost and subject to Clause 8.9, bring proceedings in its own name (or authorize a Sub-Licensee to bring proceedings
in its own name) or, if required by law (including as required for standing), jointly with CPF (and CRT and/or ICR, if required for standing), for any Infringement Action; and 

8.8.2 in any such proceedings settle any Infringement Action, provided it obtains the prior written consent of CPF, where any such
settlement would result in a restriction to the scope of such Licensed Patent. 
  

	 	8.9	(a) Any damages, profits, and awards of whatever nature recovered by ProNAi or any Sub-Licensee for any Infringement Action shall be treated as Net Sales subject to a deduction for external legal expenses of ProNAi and
such Sub-Licensee insofar as these are not recovered from a Third Party, provided always, where damages are also awarded to CPF to the extent that this would otherwise result in a double receipt by CPF of royalties ProNAi shall be entitled to deduct
any such duplicated payment from any royalties payable to CPF. In any such proceedings, CPF shall, at ProNAi’s cost, promptly provide ProNAi with all documents and assistance as ProNAi may reasonably require. ProNAi shall promptly provide CPF
with notice of such proceedings and keep CPF regularly informed of progress and promptly provide CPF with such information as CPF may require including copies of all documents filed at court in the proceedings. If CPF (or CRT and/or ICR) is joined
to proceedings pursuant to this Clause or otherwise, ProNAi shall indemnify and hold harmless the CPF Indemnified Parties and the inventors named in any Licensed Patents (the “CPF Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims,
demands, losses, causes of action, damages and expenses (including without limitation, legal fees) arising from or in connection with such proceedings.

	 	    	(b) If ProNAi does not exercise its right to bring proceedings pursuant to Clause 8.8 within [*] of written request to bring proceedings from CPF, then CPF shall be entitled, but not obliged to bring such proceedings at
its own cost. If necessary, including to recover damages, subject to ProNAi’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed it being agreed that the lack of indemnity protection for ProNAi would be reasonable grounds to
refuse consent) CPF may require ProNAi to join in such proceedings. ProNAi shall have the right to join in any such proceedings commenced by CPF, subject to [*]. Any damages, profits, and awards of whatever nature recovered as a result of such a
joint proceeding shall be [*] after deduction for external legal expenses of both Parties. 

  

	 	    	(c) In any proceedings in clauses (a) or (b), the Parties not bringing the proceedings (“Inactive Parties”) shall promptly provide the Party bringing proceedings (“Active Party”)
with all documents and assistance as the Active Party may reasonably require and the Active Party shall promptly provide the Inactive Parties with notice of such proceedings. 


 

	 	8.10	The Parties shall, at the request of any of them and at the expense of the requesting Party but for no further consideration, enter into such confirmatory Patent licences relating to the Licensed Patents,
substantially in the form set out in Schedule 10, as may be necessary or desirable in accordance with the relevant law and practice in each country in the Territory for Registration at the relevant Patent offices so that this Agreement need not be
registered or recorded unless the Parties are required to do so by law. If there are any inconsistencies between the terms of any such confirmatory Patent licence and the provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail. 


 

	 	8.11	With respect to each Licensed Product, ProNAi shall, at the time of receipt of the relevant Regulatory Approval, or such other time as appropriate, apply for a Supplementary Protection Certificate, Patent term
extension and/or any other exclusivity in respect of such Licensed Product. Without limiting the foregoing, the selection of any patent to be subject to any patent term extension for any Licensed Product shall be made by ProNAi in its sole
discretion. At ProNAi’s reasonable request and sole cost, CPF will provide reasonable assistance to ProNAi in connection with any such applications.

	 	13.3	Each Party shall ensure that each of its Representatives to whom any Confidential Information is disclosed shall previously have been informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and shall

13.4.1 CPF Reviewers, provide ProNAi, upon reasonable notice, the opportunity to review and comment on any Confidential Information
proposed to be disclosed to CPF Reviewers and shall give due consideration to any comments received from ProNAi. CPF recognises the need to protect the confidentiality of the chemical structures of Licensed Compounds. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
CPF shall be permitted to disclose to any CPF Reviewers such Confidential Information as it may determine in its reasonable discretion to disclose. Such disclosure shall be made under the terms of a confidential disclosure agreement the
confidentiality term of which shall be no less than ten (10) years. 
 13.4.2 any research institutions that have been involved in
the generation or development of the Licensed Intellectual Property: 
  

	 	(a)	be free to provide Confidential Information only to the extent that the Confidential Information relates solely to the revenues paid by ProNAi to CPF (“Revenue Information”); or 


 

	 	(b)	only provide Confidential Information, which is not Revenue Information, having first obtained ProNAi’s prior written consent to such transfer,

	EXECUTION VERSION	 	CONFIDENTIAL

  

 13.5.2 the Receiving Party can demonstrate by reference to written records that it

Information. 
  

	 	13.6	The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is: 


13.6.1 necessarily required of the Receiving Party by order of a Competent Authority or otherwise by applicable law; provided, that
the Receiving Party shall, to the extent practicable in the time available and where legally permissible, first have given notice to the Disclosing Party and shall provide such assistance to the Disclosing Party as it may reasonably require in order
for it to make an application to quash any such order or obtain a protective order requiring that the Confidential Information the subject of such order be held in confidence by such Competent Authority or, if disclosed, be used only for the purpose
for which the order was issued; and provided further that if such order is not quashed or a protective order is not obtained, the Confidential Information disclosed in response to such order shall be limited to that information that is legally
required to be disclosed in response to such order; 
 13.6.2 made by the Receiving Party to a Patent authority as may be necessary
or useful for the purposes of obtaining or enforcing a Licensed Patent (consistent with the terms and conditions of Clause 8), provided, however, that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information, to the
extent such protection is available; or 
 13.6.3 required with regard to the disclosure requirements of a national securities
exchange or other stock market or of a related regulatory body on which the Receiving Party’s securities are or are proposed to be traded, provided it has used reasonable endeavours in the time available to provide notice to the Disclosing
Party of the terms of any such disclosure beforehand.

	 	13.7	The Receiving Party agrees that the disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information without the express written consent of the Disclosing Party may cause irreparable harm to the Disclosing
Party, and that any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party may entitle the Disclosing Party to injunctive relief, in addition to any other legal remedies available to it, in any court of competent jurisdiction.

mutually agree to such a termination upon expiration of the cure period, and (ii) this Agreement shall remain in force on its terms during any period when the existence of a material breach giving the right to terminate is in dispute; or

of either ProNAi on the one hand or CPF on the other a voluntary arrangement is proposed or approved or an administration order is made, or a receiver or administrative receiver is appointed of any of the other Party’s assets or undertakings or
a winding-up resolution or petition is passed (otherwise than for the purpose of solvent reconstruction or amalgamation, in particular with respect to any reorganisation of the structure of the relevant Party) or if any circumstances arise which
entitle a court or a creditor to appoint a receiver, administrative receiver or administrator or make a winding-up order or similar or equivalent action is taken by the relevant Party by reason of its insolvency or in consequence of debt or is taken
against the relevant Party and is not dismissed within ninety (90) Business Days; or 
 14.2.3 by CPF upon thirty
(30) days written notice to ProNAi, if ProNAi challenges or seeks to challenge the validity of any of the Licensed Patents and ProNAi shall forthwith in writing notify to CPF any decision to challenge the Licensed Patents which it makes or of
which it becomes aware; provided that, for clarity, the foregoing right to terminate shall not apply solely to the extent ProNAi is legally obligated to assist in any Third Party challenge (including through a subpoena), and assists in such
challenge solely to the extent legally required to do so;

Agreement, to grant to ProNAi a licence on materially the same terms to that contained in this Agreement (a “Substituted Sublicense”), save that this shall not result in CRT or
ICR taking on any more onerous obligations or assuming any liability greater than its obligations to CPF pursuant to the Upstream Licence Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Upstream Licence Agreement, CRT is required to continue to pay to CPF
such sums as it would have received under the terminated sub-licence less the amount which the CPF would have had to pay CRT pursuant to the Upstream Licence Agreement and less any Patent Costs or other costs which would have been borne by CPF, but

15.1.1 payment of royalties and all other sums (including milestones, if applicable) due to CPF through the effective date of

request and with CPF’s prior written consent (which may be withheld at CPF’s discretion), for a period [*] following such termination, continue to sell off any inventory of finished Licensed Products existing as of the effective date of
such termination, provided that ProNAi shall continue to account to CPF for any royalty owed on Net Sales of such Licensed Products. Upon the expiration of such [*], or promptly following the effective date of such termination (if CPF does not give
its consent to such inventory sell off), ProNAi shall, at CPF’s election, transfer to CPF or destroy, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sub-Licensees (to the extent such Sub-Licensees do not retain their sublicenses following such
termination), to transfer to CPF or to destroy, at CPF’s reasonable expense, all inventory of Licensed Products in ProNAi’s possession, provided that if CPF requests a transfer of such inventory, CPF shall also reimburse ProNAi for
ProNAi’s reasonable cost of manufacture (or purchase from a Third Party) of such inventory of Licensed Products, in addition to the costs of such transfer. 

15.1.6 ProNAi shall, at the request and option of CPF, return or destroy the Licensed Know How and the Licensed Materials in its
possession or control; 
 15.1.7 In the event that ProNAi had signed a sub-licence, such sub-licence shall terminate and Clause
3.5.1 shall apply. The principles in Clauses 6.3 through6.6 and 7 shall apply to CPF as though it were substituting ProNAi in those Clauses where ProNAi was the beneficiary of those Clauses under such terminated sublicense; and 

15.1.8 save where this Agreement is terminated by ProNAi pursuant to Clause 14.2.1, in the event that CPF desires to proceed with the
development and/or exploitation of any Licensed Products: 
 15.1.9 ProNAi hereby grants to CPF under the Arising Intellectual
Property a perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid, sub-licensable, worldwide, non-exclusive licence to research, develop, make, have made, market, use and sell Licensed Products to the extent falling within the scope of the Arising Intellectual
Property.

 SCHEDULE 7 

SUB-LICENCE PROVISIONS 
  

	 	1.	If the Sub-Licensee has received an exclusive sublicence from ProNAi to develop treatments for Oncology Indications, then if the Sub-Licensee reasonably believes that pursuing an Oncology Indication is likely to result
in a product which would offer no substantial benefit to the patient population over existing drugs, or drugs in development, for the Oncology Indications that the Licensed Product would be most suitable for, then in such circumstances the
Sub-Licensee shall provide an Other Indication Notice to ProNAi (which shall provide such Other Indication Notice to CPF) provided that (a) nothing in the foregoing shall preclude the Sub-Licensee from pursuing development and commercialization
of a Licensed Product in an Other Indication concurrently with development and commercialization of Licensed Products in an Oncology Indication, provided that Sub-Licensee complies with its obligations under such sublicense, including the
obligations set forth in Paragraph 2 below, in an Oncology Indication, and (b) where such Sub-licensee is developing and commercializing Licensed Products in an Oncology Indication, and is proposing to cease or scale back development and
commercialization in all Oncology Indications (such that such Sub-Licensee would no longer meet its obligations under Paragraph 2 below in an Oncology Indication) in order to progress development and commercialization in an Other Indication, [*] the
Sub-Licensee shall [*] for an Oncology Indication. Specifically, such Sub-Licensee shall [*] with the purpose of either (i) [*] in Oncology Indications, or (ii) [*] (with respect to the [*]) and allow [*] (or any [*]) to [*] Oncology
Indications, provided that (A) any products developed following and as a result of the grant of rights to CRT or CPF [*] and shall not be [*] Oncology Indication under this Agreement, and (B) [*] and (2) [*] or (3) the [*] in an
Oncology Indication, [*] shall be amended such that [*] shall apply in each case thereafter with respect to [*]. If at the end of the [*] negotiation period, [*] believes there is [*] (which may involve [*]) to [*]. Following [*], the parties will
[*]. If such [*] will [*], whether to [*]. 

  

	 	2.	Where applicable to the rights granted to a Sub-Licensee by ProNAi (i.e. based on the territory or scope of sublicence granted), the Sub-Licensee will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to: 


 

	 	•	 	make each Licensed Product available for purchase throughout the United Kingdom 


  
 *Confidential Treatment
Requested. 
 - 71 - 










			
	EXECUTION VERSION	 	CONFIDENTIAL

  


	 	 
within [*] months of such Licensed Product receiving a European wide Registration (if the European-wide Registration also applies to permit commercialization in the United Kingdom on
substantially similar terms, without the requirement for further material regulatory activities or filings in order to commence such commercialization in the United Kingdom) or a United Kingdom-specific Registration for launch 



 

	 	•	 	develop and commercialise in each of the Major Markets at least one Licensed Product with an application in an Oncology Indication; 


 

	 	•	 	in the event that a Licensed Product is launched or ready to be launched in the United Kingdom which has received a European wide Registration (if the European-wide Registration also applies to permit commercialization
in the United Kingdom on substantially similar terms, without the requirement for further material regulatory activities or filings in order to commence such commercialization in the United Kingdom) or a United Kingdom-specific Registration in
respect of an Oncology Indication, and such Sub-Licensee is responsible for setting the price of such Licensed Product, the Sub-Licensee will ensure that such Licensed Product is made available throughout the United Kingdom [*]; 


 

	 	•	 	provide ProNAi with a Progress Report at least once every twelve (12) months; 

  

	 	•	 	promptly respond to any reasonable queries that ProNAi may have following receipt of a Progress Report; and 

  

	 	•	 	at ProNAi’s request, meet, once per Year, with ProNAi (either in person or by teleconference if a face-to-face meeting is not practical) to discuss the content of a particular Progress Report. 


 

	 	4.	The Sub-Licensee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CPF Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Third Party claims, demands, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, legal
fees) arising from or in connection with the exercise by the Sub-Licensee or its permitted Sub-Licensee of the rights granted to it or the actions of the Sub-Licensee, or its permitted Sub-Licensee in relation to a Licensed Product.


  

	 	5.	 Prior to a Sub-Licensee commencing any proceedings pursuant to Clause 8.8, the
Sub-

Requested. 
 - 72 - 










			
	EXECUTION VERSION	 	CONFIDENTIAL

  


	 	
Licensee shall enter into a separate agreement with each of CPF and CPF’s licensors pursuant to which the Sub-Licensee shall indemnify the CPF Indemnitees, CRT, ICR Indemnities (as defined
in the Licence and Collaboration Agreement dated 23 September 2013 entered into by CPF, CRT and ICR) in respect of any and all potential Third Party claims, demands, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, legal
fees) which might arise directly or indirectly as a consequence of such proceedings being concluded successfully or unsuccessfully (including without limitation any anti-trust proceedings commenced by a Third Party (for example, alleging that the
price of any Licensed Product has been kept artificially high through the maintenance of Patent Rights which are invalid and/or unenforceable for any reason)). 

  

	 	6.	Promptly after receipt by CPF of any claim or alleged claim or notice of the commencement of any action, administrative or legal proceeding, or investigation to which the indemnity provided for in this Paragraph 6 may
apply, CPF shall give written notice to the Sub-Licensee of such fact and the Sub-Licensee shall have the option to assume the defence thereof by election in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of CPF notice. If the Sub-Licensee fails to
make such election, the Indemnified Party may assume such defence and the Sub-Licensee will be liable for the legal and other expenses consequently incurred in connection with such defence. The Parties will co-operate in good faith in the conduct of
any defence, will provide such reasonable assistance as may be required to enable any claim to be defended properly and the Party with conduct of the action shall promptly provide to the other Party copies of all correspondence and documents and
notice in writing of the substance of all oral communications relating to such action. 

  

	 	7.	Should a Sub-Licensee assume conduct of the defence: 

  

	 	•	 	the Indemnified Party may retain separate legal advisers, at its sole cost and expense save that if the Sub-Licensee denies the applicability of the indemnity or reserves its position in relation to the same, the
indemnity shall extend to the Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses; and 

  

	 	•	 	 the Sub-Licensee will not, except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement provided 



  
 - 73 - 










			
	EXECUTION VERSION	 	CONFIDENTIAL

  


	 	 
always, that if the Indemnified Party shall not consent to such entry of judgment or settlement, the amount which the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover from the Sub-Licensee pursuant
to the sub-licence shall be limited to the amount for which the action would otherwise have been settled or compromised; and 


  

	 	•	 	the Sub-Licensee shall not admit liability in respect of, or compromise or settle any such action without the prior written consent of the Sub-Licensee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. 

  

	 	8.	Reasonably prior to Commencement of any human being dosed with the Licensed Product, the Sub-Licensee shall put in place and thereafter maintain, at its own cost, comprehensive (in both nature and amount) product
liability insurance and general commercial liability insurance through a reputable insurance company with respect to Licensed Products. At CPF’s request, the Sub-Licensee shall provide CPF with a certificate evidencing the coverage required
hereby, and the amount thereof and the noting of CPF’s interest. Such insurance shall be maintained as follows: (a) for at least [*] years following the expiration or termination of this sub-licence with respect to general commercial
liability insurance, and (b) for at least [*] years following the last date of patient dosing for product/clinical trial liability insurance.
