 2.3 Retention of Rights. MRC retains the right under the Patent Rights to use the Licensed Methods
solely for academic research including with academic collaborators. Provided however, that the any such use is: 
 (a) not supported
by a commercial entity or 
 (b) not in support of any commercial activity and 

(c) MRC or its academic collaborators shall disclose to ANAPTYS’ all protein products directly generated using the Licensed Methods. MRC,
and where appropriate its academic collaborators (if any), and ANAPTYS shall jointly determine whether or not to commercialize each such identified protein product on a case-by-case basis. Notwithstanding such decision, ANAPTYS shall have the first
right of refusal to negotiate an exclusive license to commercialize the identified protein products. ANAPTYS shall have one hundred and eighty (180) days after the disclosure of each identified protein product to ANAPTYS to exercise its option
and to begin good faith negotiations. If ANAPTYS does not notify MRC, in writing, of its intention to enter into such discussions before such one hundred and eighty (180) day period has expired, MRC and/or its academic collaborators may proceed
to commercialize the corresponding identified protein product. To avoid doubt, apart from any delay that may be reasonably required to obtain appropriate intellectual property protection with respect to the results arising from the research
conducted under this Section 2.3, any decision to commercialize and/or license an identified protein product shall not prevent or delay the timely publication of such results by the MRC and/or their academic collaborators.

 2.4 Limited use of antibodies for HIV Project by Global HIV Vaccine Enterprise.
Notwithstanding the above, ANAPTYS hereby agrees that, in support of and pursuant to MRC’s participation in the collaborative HIV project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and subject to prior notification to ANAPTYS by the
MRC, the MRC may grant certain and limited rights solely to the use of the Licensed Methods for future development of HIV antigen-based vaccines. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, these rights will be strictly limited to the use of
antibodies generated by MRC or other members of said HIV project consortium, to identify HIV epitopes which will then be used to develop and/or use, but not be incorporated into, as said HIV vaccines. For clarification, any rights granted hereunder
or in any subsequent agreement contemplated below will not extend to any other use of the antibodies generated through this program, including but not limited to use as a vaccine or use as a therapeutic or prophylactic agent. ANAPTYS recognises that
the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is providing said funding in furtherance of their charitable objective to ensure access to affordable health solutions resulting from said project for the benefit of people most in need within Developing
Countries. Therefore, in recognition of such charitable objective, ANAPTYS agrees that the rights to such anti-HIV antibodies, solely for the limited purpose of identifying epitopes for HIV vaccines and as reasonably needed to use such epitope(s) as
vaccine(s), will be granted free of consideration where such vaccines are for use in people most in need within Developing Countries. If necessary to ensure development of vaccines for such use in Developing Countries, with ANAPTYS’ prior
written consent on a case-by-case basis, such rights may be extended on royalty free or minimal royalty basis where it is necessary for such vaccines to be made in other than Developing Countries for eventual use in Developing Countries. To avoid
doubt, ANAPTYS shall be free to set other terms and conditions in respect of such rights, provided such terms and conditions are consistent with achieving said charitable objective. Any request made to the MRC to use such HIV antibodies for the
development and/or use of said HIV vaccines outside of said HIV Project shall be referred to ANAPTYS. To avoid doubt, the MRC shall not be involved in negotiations between ANAPTYS and any third party wishing to use such anti-HIV antibodies for any
purpose related to, but outside of, the collaborative HIV project. Notwithstanding the above, no rights are extended or reserved for the use of any antibodies, as quid pro quo or otherwise, for any developer to make vaccines available without
ANAPTYS’ prior written approval on a case-by-case basis. 
  

	3.	DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS 

 3.1 Diligence. ANAPTYS will work to identify,
research and/or develop Licensed Methods and Licensed Products for purposes of commercializing such products and methods at least as diligently as ANAPTYS researches and/or develops its products and methods of similar probability of technical
success, market / commercial potential and stages of development. Failure by the ANAPTYS to meets its diligence obligation above due to reasons beyond ANAPTYS’ control, (including, without limitation, force majeure and/or lack of technical
success of Licensed Products, or Licensed Methods if applicable) will not constitute lack of due diligence for purposes of this Agreement (“Commercially Reasonable Efforts”). 

3.2 Reporting. Within sixty (60) days following the first anniversary of the Effective Date, ANAPTYS will provide MRC with
annual progress reports which will include a budget and a summary plan for the development of Licensed Products and/or Licensed Methods.

 [*] 

(iii) Licensed Products for non-therapeutic uses: 

[*] 
 (b) All royalties payable
under this Section 4.3 shall be subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) No multiple royalties shall be owed because the use or
sale of any Licensed Product or Licensed Methods is covered by more than one valid and unexpired claim contained in the Patent Rights. For clarification, royalties shall only be owed either for a Licensed Product or Licensed Method and solely based
upon one of the following sections: 4.3(a)(i) or 4.3(a)(ii) or 4.3(a)(iii) above. 
 (ii) If ANAPTYS, its affiliate or its Sublicensee is
required to obtain a license or patent rights from one or more independent third parties in order to make, have made, use, have used, sell, have sold, offer for sale, import or have imported Licensed Products or Licensed Methods without infringement
of such patents, and if the total royalty burden (including royalties payable to MRC) for such Licensed Products or Licensed Methods exceeds, [*], then the royalty rate applicable to Net Sales of such Licensed Product or Licensed Method by ANAPTYS,
its affiliates and its Sublicensees payable to MRC shall be adjusted as follows: 

  

					
		  	-6-	  	*Confidential Treatment Requested.









 (1) For Licensed Products for therapeutic or prophylactic uses in humans or animals, the royalty

Methods, [*]. In no event, however, shall the royalty rate payable to MRC for any Licensed Product, or Licensed Method be reduced by greater than [*]% of the royalty rate otherwise due to the MRC under this provision. 

(iii) In the case of any combination product, Net Sales for such Combination Product shall be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of
such combination product by the fraction A/(A+B) where A is the invoice price of the Licensed Product if sold separately, and B is the total invoice price of the other active ingredient or ingredients in the combination product, if sold separately.
If neither the Licensed Product nor the other active ingredient(s) are sold separately, the Parties shall determine Net Sales for such combination product by mutual agreement based on the relative contribution of the Licensed Product and each other
active ingredient to the combination product. 
 (iv) In the event that any patent or claim thereof included within the Patent Rights is
held invalid in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction and last resort and from which no appeal has or can be taken, or has been pending for more than [*] years without issuance, then all obligation to pay royalties based on that
patent or claim or any claim patentably indistinct there from will cease as of the date of final decision or [*] year anniversary. ANAPTYS will not, however, be relieved from paying any royalties that accrued before such final decision or
anniversary.

MRC all relevant papers, files and other documents. 
 (c) ANAPTYS agrees to keep MRC informed on major or key prosecution issues of the
Patent Rights and arrange for MRC to be sent copies of any patent correspondence upon request of MRC. Any action relating to the prosecution of the continuing applications must be notified to MRC at least thirty (30) days (or the maximum
possible if at least thirty 30 days notice are not available to ANAPTYS) prior to any submission to any patent office for MRC’s review. In the event that MRC has a concern regarding the submission, the Parties will discuss to mutually resolve
any potential conflict or material impact to the parent patent applications in the Patent Rights. 
 6.3 Patent Enforcement. 

(a) Each of MRC and ANAPTYS shall as soon as practicable after it becomes aware thereof give to the other in writing reasonable particulars of
any use or proposed use or threat of the same by another person in any country which in that Party’s view amounts to or might amount to an infringement of the Patent Rights in such country. ANAPTYS shall at its own expense and with legal
counsel of its own choice, bring suit (or take other appropriate legal action) against any actual, alleged or threatened infringement of the Patent Rights. MRC will cooperate with ANAPTYS and name ANAPTYS as a party if required for ANAPTYS to bring
the suit. MRC shall cooperate fully with ANAPTYS and shall endeavor to cause the appropriate MRC scientists to cooperate with ANAPTYS at the request of ANAPTYS, including by giving testimony and producing documents lawfully requested in the
prosecution of any suit by ANAPTYS for infringement of the MRC Patents; provided, that ANAPTYS shall pay all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by MRC in connection with such cooperation. 

(b) If ANAPTYS does not wish to undertake such action MRC shall have the right (but not the obligation) to undertake proceedings at its own
expense and with legal counsel of its own choice. Any damages, monetary awards or other amount recovered, whether by judgment or settlement, pursuant to any suit, proceeding or other legal action taken under this section shall be to the account of
the Party bringing and prosecuting the same.

agree that if a Party fails or neglects for any reason to take advantage of any of the terms provided for the termination of this Agreement 

  
 -15- 








 
or if a Party, having the right to declare this Agreement terminated, will fail to do so, any such failure or neglect by such Party will not be a waiver or be deemed or be construed to be a
waiver of any cause for the termination of this Agreement subsequently arising, or as a waiver of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or of the performance thereof. None of the terms, covenants and conditions of this

permissible and enforceable clause which corresponds most closely to the intent of the Parties as evidenced by the provision held to be unenforceable. 

17.4 Force Majeure. Except for the payment of any amounts due under this Agreement, no liability hereunder will result to a
Party by reason of delay in performance caused by force majeure, that is circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Party, including, without limitation, acts of God, fire, flood, war, civil unrest, labor unrest, or shortage of or inability
to obtain material as equipment. 
 17.5 Entire Agreement. The terms and conditions herein constitute the entire

intended to limit or expand on the meaning of the language contained in the particular Section.
