 (a) Reports; Payments. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller, within sixty (60) days after the end of
each calendar quarter, reasonably detailed written accountings of Net Sales of Products for the Indications that are subject to royalty obligations to Seller under this Section 6.3 for such calendar quarter. Such quarterly reports shall indicate (x)
Net Sales for treatment of the Indications on a Product-by-Product basis and (y) the calculation of royalties owed to Seller from such Net Sales. Such written accounting shall also be accompanied by the related royalty payment. In addition to and
without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller, within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar year during which any Products are sold, a reasonably detailed written accounting of Net Sales of Products for the Indications
during such calendar year, irrespective of whether such Net Sales are subject to royalty obligations to Seller under this Section 6.3 for such calendar year. 
  
 (b) Records and Audits. Purchaser shall keep, and shall require its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ sublicensees to keep, complete and
accurate records for at least four (4) years from the date of the transactions underlying such records relating to Net Sales of Products and other information relevant to calculating payments owed to Seller hereunder. For the sole purpose of
verifying payments paid or payable to Seller, Seller shall have the right no more than once each calendar year at Seller’s expense to retain an independent certified public accountant selected by Seller and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser,
to review such records in the location(s) where such records are maintained by Purchaser, its Affiliates or its sublicensees upon reasonable notice and during regular business hours and under obligations of confidence. For purposes of this Section
6.3 (b), Seller’s regular audit accountants are not deemed acceptable to Purchaser. The accountant’s determination of whether the payments made to Seller were accurate and/or whether additional amounts are payable to Seller shall be made
available to Seller. If the review reflects an underpayment to Seller, such underpayment shall be promptly remitted to Seller. If the underpayment is equal to or greater than ten percent (10%) of the royalties that were otherwise due under this

Seller.

in this Agreement are United States dollar amounts 
  
 (d) Late
Payments. If any payments due to Seller are not made on or before the specified due date, Purchaser shall pay interest on the outstanding amounts until paid in full, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in an amount equal to the average of
the prime rate, as reported by The Wall Street Journal (Western Edition) over the period during which such payment is overdue, plus three percent (3%) 
  
 (e) Currency and Method of Translation. All payments under this Agreement shall be made in United States dollars by transfer to such bank account
as Seller may designate from time to time. Any royalties due hereunder with respect to amounts in currencies other than United States dollars shall be payable in their United States dollar equivalents. The United States 
  
 CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 15 








 dollar equivalent shall be calculated for each currency using the foreign exchange rates that are used in the then
Purchaser’s official currency conversion system, which system is qualified under GAAP and used regularly by Purchaser in similar agreements with third parties and explained in reasonable detail to Seller. 
  
 (f) Tax Withholding. The Parties shall use all commercially reasonable
and legal efforts to reduce tax withholding on payments made to Seller under this Agreement. Despite such efforts, if tax withholdings under the laws of any country are required with respect to payments to Seller, Purchaser may withhold the required
amount and pay it to the appropriate Governmental Authority. In such a case, Purchaser shall promptly provide Seller with receipts to allow Seller to document such tax withholdings for purposes of claiming foreign tax credits and similar benefits.

  
 (g) Blocked Payments. In the event that, by reason of
applicable laws or regulations in any country, it becomes impossible or illegal for Purchaser or its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ sublicensees to transfer, or have transferred on its behalf, royalties or other payments to Seller, such
royalties or other payments shall be deposited in local currency in the relevant country to the credit of Seller in a recognized banking institution designated by Seller or, if none is designated by Seller within a period of thirty (30) days, in a

LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT AND ANY WARRANTY ARISING OUT OF PRIOR COURSE OF DEALING AND USAGE OF TRADE. 
  
 Article XI 
 Certain Additional Covenants 
  
 Section 11.1
Cooperation. After the Closing, upon the request of Purchaser and at Purchaser’s expense, Seller shall (i) execute and deliver any and all further materials, documents and instruments of conveyance and assignment as may reasonably be
requested by Purchaser to effect, record or verify the transfer to, and vesting in, Purchaser of Seller’s right, title and interest 
  
 CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 25 








 in and to the Assets, free and clear of all liens, pledges, hypothecations, charges and other security interests, in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) cooperate with Purchaser to enforce the terms of any Assumed Contracts and Confidentiality Agreements, including terms relating to confidentiality and intellectual property rights. After the
Closing, Seller shall promptly deliver to Purchaser (i) any mail, packages and other communications addressed to Seller and relating to the Program or the Assets, (ii) any cash or other property that Seller receives that is payable to Purchaser as
set forth in Section 2.1(i), and (iii) any cash or other property that Seller receives pursuant to the BioCryst Agreement for any Materials (as defined in the BioCryst Agreement) supplied by Seller to BioCryst under such BioCryst Agreement solely in
the event, and only to the extent, such Materials are used by BioCryst to research and develop Tissue Factor Antagonist; in each case, provided that Seller shall have no obligation to actively collect any such cash or property. After the Closing,
Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser, upon the request of Purchaser and at Purchaser’s expense, to provide Purchaser with the benefits owed to Seller under the Confidentiality Agreements. 
  
 Section 11.2 Non-Disclosure. Following the Closing Date, all Assets
shall be deemed, for purposes of this Section 11.2 and Section 11.3, below, to be Confidential Information of Purchaser, and Seller shall be deemed the receiving party with respect thereto, provided that an Asset will not be deemed to be
Confidential Information if such Asset (i) is lawfully disclosed to Seller after the Closing Date by another source rightfully in possession of, and with the right to disclose, such Asset (provided that such source did not have a confidentiality
obligation to Seller on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to such Confidential Information); or (ii) becomes published or generally known to the public (including information known to the public through the sale of any Tissue Factor
Antagonist in the ordinary course of business) through no fault or omission on the part of Seller or its Affiliates. After the Closing Date, and except to the extent necessary to perform the transitional services for Purchaser pursuant to the
Transition Services Agreement and as permitted under Section 3.4(b), neither Seller nor Altor nor any of their successors and assigns shall (a) retain any document, databases or other media embodying any Confidential Information which constitutes a
part of the Assets or use, publish or disclose to any Third Party any such Confidential Information (provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Altor shall be entitled to retain one (1) copy of the foregoing Confidential Information for
administrative and legal purposes), nor (b) use, publish or disclose any Confidential Information concerning Purchaser or its Affiliates. In the event of any termination of this Agreement, (i) each Party shall treat as confidential and shall not
disclose or use, directly or indirectly, or permit others under its control to disclose or to use, any Confidential Information concerning the other Party or its business or products, which Confidential Information was obtained pursuant to or in
connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, unless such information is or becomes a matter of public knowledge through no fault of the receiving Party or can be shown to have been in its possession prior to disclosure by the disclosing Party
and (ii) the receiving Party shall promptly return to the disclosing Party, upon written request, all written information and documents received from the disclosing Party, its affiliates, accountants or counsel, including all copies thereof. The
Parties acknowledge that, in the event of breach or threatened breach of the covenants in this Section 11.2, the damage or imminent damage to the value and the goodwill of the disclosing Party, particularly of the Purchaser and the Program, will be
irreparable and extremely difficult to estimate, making any remedy at law or in damages inadequate. Accordingly, the Parties agree, in addition to any other remedies available, injunctive relief may be granted for any such breach. The provisions of
this Section 11.2 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 
  
 CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 26 








 Section 11.3 Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” shall mean all
confidential and/or proprietary information of a Party, including without limitation Know-How and information derived from reports, investigations, research, work in progress, codes, marketing and sales programs, financial projections, cost
summaries, pricing formula, contract analyses, financial information, projections, confidential filings with any state or federal agency, and all other confidential concepts, methods of doing business, ideas, materials or information prepared or
performed for, by or on behalf of such Person by its employees, officers, directors, agents, representatives, or consultants. Information shall not be deemed Confidential Information hereunder if it (i) was known by the receiving Party prior to its
date of disclosure by the disclosing Party (provided that, with respect to the Assets, the “date of disclosure” by Purchaser shall be deemed to be the date the Confidential Information was first identified or created by Seller); (ii)
either before or after the date of the disclosure by the disclosing Party is lawfully disclosed to the receiving Party by other sources rightfully in possession of, and with the right to disclose, the Confidential Information; (iii) either before or
after the date of the disclosure by the disclosing Party, becomes published or generally known to the public (including information known to the public through the sale of any Tissue Factor Antagonist in the ordinary course of business) through no
fault or omission on the part of the receiving Party; or (iv) is independently developed by or for the receiving Party without reference to or reliance upon the Confidential Information. 
  
 Section 11.4 Non-Compete Agreement. 
  
 (a) After the Closing Date, and except as provided pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof or to the extent necessary to perform the
transitional services for Purchaser pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, Seller and Altor agree, for a period of seven (7) years following the Closing Date, that neither they nor their Affiliates (collectively, the “Restricted
Parties”) shall directly or indirectly engage in the research, development, manufacture, or commercialization of any Tissue Factor Antagonist (the “Competitive Activity”); provided, however, that it shall not be a violation
of this Section 11.4(a) for a Restricted Party to (i) own any debt securities or other debt obligations (other than convertible debt) of any Person, (ii) invest in securities representing less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding capital stock
of any Person, the securities of which are publicly traded or listed on any securities exchange or automated quotation system, or (iii) be employed by or be an officer of any Person that is not significantly engaged in a Competitive Activity
(provided that the Restricted Party does not participate in the Competitive Activity). For purposes of this Section 11.4, “significantly engaged in a Competitive Activity” shall mean that at least 10% of the consolidated net revenue
derived during the last complete fiscal year of the Person is derived from a Competitive Activity. 
  
 (b) The Parties hereto agree that the covenants set forth in this Section 11.4 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under applicable Legal
Requirements. If all or any part of this Section 11.4 is held invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Legal Requirement or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and
effect. Seller agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by it or any of the Restricted Parties of the provisions of this Section 11.4, money damages would 
  
 CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 27 








 not be an adequate remedy and that Purchaser shall be entitled to seek temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctive
relief without the necessity of posting a bond. If any part of this Section 11.4 is held to be excessively broad as to duration, scope, activity or subject, such part will be construed by limiting and reducing it so as to be enforceable to the
maximum extent compatible with applicable Legal Requirements. 
  
 Section 11.5 Covenants of Seller Prior to Closing. During the period from the date of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement and the Closing Date, except as otherwise consented to or
approved by Purchaser in writing, Seller covenants and agrees that: 
  
 (a) Seller shall provide Purchaser and its representatives full access to all Assets, including without limitation the records relating to the ongoing clinical study of cH36 for Acute Lung Injury (“ALI Study”); shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to maintain good relationships with licensors, suppliers, employees, clinical sites and others having business dealings with Seller, and shall make appropriate introductions at Seller’s various clinical sites so
as to facilitate a swift and orderly transition of the ALI Study to Purchaser as soon as practicable following the Closing Date; 
  
 (b) Seller shall not transfer, assign, dispose of or otherwise create any liens, pledges, hypothecations, charges or other security interests on any
Assets; 
  
 (c) Seller shall cause the Assets to be maintained,
preserved and operated in the ordinary course of business in accordance with past practices, maintain insurance now in force with respect to the Assets and such activities, and pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses with respect thereto;

  
 (d) Seller shall continue to conduct the Program, including
without limitation the ALI Study, in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (e) Seller shall perform its obligations under the Assumed Contracts and shall not enter into any new Contract, or amend any Assumed Contract, related to Tissue Factor Antagonists or the other Assets without prior written consent of
Purchaser; and 
  
 (f) Seller shall maintain and, in its
reasonable judgment, protect all of the Assigned Patent Rights. 
  
 Section 11.6 Existence of Seller. Seller agrees to maintain its corporate existence and agrees not to take any action to approve or effect a dissolution before the later of the Release Date or the resolution of any Purchaser Claims
under the Escrow Agreement. 
  
 Section 11.7 Transfer of
IND to Purchaser. On the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to the FDA a notice of Investigational New Drug application transfer, and to Health Canada, a comparable notice, each in the forms set forth on Schedule 11.7 hereof, with respect
to the clinical trials identified on such Schedule, and Seller shall otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts, at Purchaser’s expense, to assist Purchaser in effecting the transfer to Purchaser of any Investigational New Drug applications
that are part of the Assets (or to otherwise apply for appropriate Investigational New Drug application(s) in its own name in order 
  
 CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 28 








 to operate or assume the Assets), including by obtaining any approval, consent, order, registration, license or other
authorization from any applicable Regulatory Authorities necessary to effect such transfer. From and after receipt by the FDA of such notice, Purchaser shall assume responsibility as sponsor for such clinical trials. 
  
 Section 11.8 Enforcement of Confidentiality Agreements. Following the
Closing Date, Seller will take reasonable measures to enforce for the benefit of Purchaser the Confidentiality Agreements, as well as Contracts that do not constitute Assumed Contracts and that have been fully performed other than surviving
confidentiality obligations, at Purchaser’s request and Purchaser’s sole expense. 
  
 Section 11.9 Dow Reports. Seller agrees to provide to Purchaser, to the extent it is entitled to do so, a copy of each report delivered to or
received from The Dow Chemical Company pursuant to the Dow Agreement reflecting the results of the collaboration contemplated by the Dow Agreement. Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser shall not be entitled to any payments payable
to Seller under the Dow Agreement. 
  
 Section 11.10
Altor Transfer. Contemporaneously with the consummation of the Altor Transfer, Seller shall assign to Altor, and Altor shall assume, all or, as appropriate, part of Seller’s rights and obligations under each of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4,
4.1, 4.2, and 11.9 of this Agreement and under the Transition Services Agreement. 
  
 Section 11.11 Nonassignable Contract. Nothing in this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be construed as an attempt or agreement to assign or transfer any Assumed
Contract to Purchaser which by its terms is nonassignable without the consent of a Third Party (a “Nonassignable Contract”), unless and until such consent shall have been obtained. From and after the Closing Date, Seller shall use
commercially reasonable efforts and shall cooperate with Purchaser to the extent reasonably requested by Purchaser to obtain any such consents, and, to the extent that such consents are not so obtained, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide
Purchaser with the benefits of such Nonassignable Contracts under reasonable and lawful arrangements, as well as, to the extent necessary and to the extent related to the Program, the benefits of the Alabama Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, to the extent that such consents are not obtained, or the benefits of such Nonassignable Contracts are not provided to Purchaser, Purchaser shall have no obligations with respect thereto. 
  
 Section 11.12 No Diligence Obligation. Seller expressly acknowledges
that, following the Closing, Purchaser shall have no obligation to develop or commercialize any Product. Even if Purchaser determines to develop one or more Products, it shall have no obligation to develop or continue developing any such Product for
one or more Indications. Purchaser shall have no obligation to deliver any reports to Seller regarding Purchaser’s development or commercialization efforts, or lack thereof, with respect to any Product.

“Indemnity Basket”), in which case the amount of Losses the Purchaser Indemnified Parties or the Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover, subject to Section 14.4, above, and paragraphs (a) and (b),
above, of this Section 14.5, shall be all such Losses, including the amount of the Indemnity Basket.
