 In the case of transfer of LICENSED PRODUCTS between
COMPANY and an AFFILIATE or COMPANY and a SUBLICENSEE or SUBLICENSEE and an AFFILIATE for which there is a subsequent sale to a third party end user or distributor, NET SALES will be calculated based on the invoice amount when sold to the third

COMPANY toward another person or entity not to grant any of the rights described in clause (i) or (ii) to any third party, in each case regardless of whether such grant of rights, license given or agreement entered into is referred to or is

THERAPEUTIC FIELD, the running royalty shall be equal to [********] of NET SALES; 


  

	 	iii.	 With respect to LICENSED PRODUCTS or LICENSED PROCESSES leased or sold by a SUBLICENSEE, the running royalty
shall be equal to the [********] of [********] of such SUBLICENSEE’s NET SALES or [********] of any running royalty owed to COMPANY under a relevant SUBLICENSE AGREEMENT. For clarity, if no running royalty is owed to COMPANY under a SUBLICENSE

SUBLICENSEE under any such BUNDLED SUBLICENSE to ascribe value to the PATENT RIGHTS for the purpose of determining the basis for SUBLICENSE INCOME sharing in accordance with this Section 4.1(e) . Any such allocation of value ascribed to the
PATENT RIGHTS shall (1) reflect the value of the PATENT RIGHTS sublicensed by COMPANY in the context of the entire grant of rights, (2) shall be consistent with the amounts paid for similar technology in the biotechnology and/or
pharmaceutical industry, and (3) shall be determined by an independent third party mutually acceptable to COMPANY and its SUBLICENSEE and M.I.T. 

(f) Consequences of a PATENT CHALLENGE. In the event that (i) COMPANY or any of its AFFILIATES brings a PATENT CHALLENGE against
M.I.T., or (ii) COMPANY or any of its AFFILIATES assists another party in bringing a PATENT CHALLENGE against M.I.T. (except as required under a court order or subpoena), and (iii) M.I.T. does not choose to exercise its rights to terminate

action relating to product liability. The previous sentence will not apply to any CLAIM that is determined with finality by a court of competent jurisdiction to result solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an HHMI INDEMNITEE.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, COMPANY’s obligation to defend, indemnify and hold harmless HHMI INDEMNITEES under this paragraph will not be subject to any limitation or exclusion of liability or damages or otherwise

 and that such procedures constitute legally binding obligations that are an essential provision of this
Agreement. If either party fails to observe the procedures of this Article, as may be modified by their written agreement, the other party may bring an action for specific performance of these procedures in any court of competent jurisdiction. 

13.2 Equitable Remedies. Although the procedures specified in this Article are the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of
disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement, either party may seek a preliminary injunction or other provisional equitable relief if, in its reasonable judgment, such action is necessary to avoid irreparable harm to itself or to preserve
its rights under this Agreement. 
 13.3 Dispute Resolution Procedures. 

(a) Mediation. In the event of any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, either party may initiate mediation upon
written notice to the other party (‘‘NOTICE DATE”) pursuant to Section 15.1, whereupon both parties shall be obligated to engage in a mediation proceeding. The mediation shall commence within [********] of the NOTICE DATE. The
mediation shall be conducted by a single mediator in Boston, Massachusetts. The party requesting mediation shall designate [********] nominees for mediator in its notice. The other party may accept one of the nominees or may designate its own
nominees by notice addressed to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA’’) and copied to the requesting party. If within, [********] following the request for mediation, the parties have not selected a mutually acceptable mediator,
a mediator shall be appointed by the AAA according to the Commercial Mediation Rules. The mediator shall attempt to facilitate a negotiated settlement of the dispute, but shall have no authority to impose any settlement terms on the parties.
[********]. 
 (b) Trial Without Jury. If the dispute is not resolved by mediation within [********] days after commencement of
mediation, each party shall have the right to pursue any other remedies legally available to resolve the dispute, provided, however, that the parties expressly waive any right to a jury trial in any legal proceeding under this Article. 

13.4 Performance to Continue. Each party shall continue to perform its undisputed obligations under this Agreement pending final
resolution of any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement; provided, however, that a party may suspend performance of its

 undisputed obligations during any period in which the other party fails or refuses to perform its undisputed
obligations. Nothing in this Article is intended to relieve COMPANY from its obligation to make undisputed payments pursuant to Articles 4 and 6 of this Agreement 

13.5 Statute of Limitations. The parties agree that all applicable statutes of limitation and time-based defenses (including, but not
limited to, estoppel and laches) shall be tolled while the procedures set forth in Sections 13.3(a) are pending. The parties shall cooperate in taking any actions necessary to achieve this result. 

13.6 HHMI Not Subject To Dispute Resolution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no dispute affecting the rights or property of HHMI shall
be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Article 13 above. 
 14. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 

14.1 Designation. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION that is disclosed in writing shall be marked with a legend indicating its confidential
status (such as “Confidential” or ‘‘Proprietary’’). CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION that is disclosed orally or visually shall be documented in a written notice prepared by the DISCLOSING PARTY and delivered to the RECEIVING
PARTY within [********] of the date of disclosure; such notice shall summarize the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION disclosed to the RECEIVING PARTY and reference the time and place of disclosure. 

14.2 Obligations. For a period of [********] after termination or expiration of this Agreement, the RECEIVING PARTY shall
(i) maintain such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION in confidence, except that the RECEIVING PARTY may disclose or permit the disclosure of any CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION to its directors, officers, employees, consultants, and advisors who are obligated
to maintain the confidential nature of such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION and who need to know such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION for the purposes of this Agreement; (ii) use such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION solely for the purposes of this Agreement; and
(iii) allow its trustees or directors, officers, employees, consultants, and advisors to reproduce the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION only to the extent necessary for the purposes of this Agreement, with all such reproductions being considered
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The RECEIVING PARTY shall be responsible for any unauthorized disclosure or use of CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION by its trustees or directors, officers, employees, consultants, and advisors. 

 
 [***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K,

 M.I.T. may disclose COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION to employees and trustees of HHMI who have a need to
know such information pursuant to the collaborative arrangement between M.I.T. and HHMI, who will treat such information as being confidential to COMPANY. 

14.3 Exceptions. The obligations of the RECEIVING PARTY under Section 14.2 above shall not apply to the extent that the RECEIVING
PARTY can demonstrate by competent evidence that certain CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION (i) was in the public domain prior to the time of its disclosure under this Agreement; (ii) entered the public domain after the time of its disclosure under
this Agreement through means other than an unauthorized disclosure resulting from an act or omission by the RECEIVING PARTY; (iii) was independently developed or discovered by the RECEIVING PARTY without use of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION;
(iv) is or was disclosed to the RECEIVING PARTY at any time, whether prior to or after the time of its disclosure under this Agreement, by a third party having no fiduciary relationship with the DISCLOSING PARTY and having no obligation of
confidentiality with respect to such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION; or (v) is required to be disclosed to comply with applicable laws or regulations, or with a court or administrative order, provided that the DISCLOSING PARTY receives reasonable
prior written notice of such disclosure. 
 14.4 Ownership and Return. The RECEIVING PARTY acknowledges that the DISCLOSING PARTY (or
any third party entrusting its own information to the DISCLOSING PARTY) claims ownership of its CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION in the possession of the RECEIVING PARTY. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, and at the request of the
DISCLOSING PARTY, the RECEIVING PARTY shall return to the DISCLOSING PARTY all originals, copies, and summaries of documents, materials, and other tangible manifestations of CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION in the possession or control of the RECEIVING
PARTY, except that the RECEIVING PARTY may retain one copy of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION in the possession of its legal counsel solely for the purpose of monitoring its obligations under this Agreement.

 15.3 Force Majeure. Neither party will be responsible for delays resulting from

 15.4
Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified only by means of a written instrument signed by both parties. Any waiver of any rights or failure to act in a specific instance shall relate only to such
instance and shall not be construed as an agreement to waive any rights or fail to act in any other instance, whether or not similar. 

15.5 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such
invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify the Agreement to preserve (to the extent possible) their original intent. If the parties fail to reach a
modified agreement within [********] after the relevant provision is held invalid or unenforceable, then the dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article 13. While the dispute is pending resolution, this Agreement
