FINANCIALS


 


8.1 Upfront Payment.
Within [***] after the Effective Date, EQRx shall pay to Licensor a one-time, non-refundable, non-creditable payment in the amount of
One Hundred Forty Million Dollars (USD$140,000,000) [***] plus Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) associated with receiving notification
of CS1001 designation as a Breakthrough Therapy by the FDA (collectively, the “Upfront Payment”).


 


8.2 Regulatory and Sales
Milestone Payments.


 


(a) Milestone Payments for
CS1001. As partial consideration for the rights granted to EQRx under this Agreement with respect to CS1001, EQRx will make the [***]
milestone payments set forth in Table 8.2(a) below upon the first achievement of the corresponding milestone event:


 


Table 8.2(a)

    15


     

    

 


(b) Milestone Payments for
CS1003. As partial consideration for the rights granted to EQRx under this Agreement with respect to CS1003, EQRx will make the [***]
milestone payments set forth in Table 8.2(b) below upon the first achievement of the corresponding milestone event:


 


Table 8.2(b)

	[***]	[***]	[***]
	[***]	[***]	[***]


 


For clarity, each milestone payment under this
Section 8.2 (Regulatory and Sales Milestone Payments) (i) will be owed and payable to Licensor whether the milestone event triggering
such payment was achieved by EQRx or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees, and (ii) is payable only once, upon the first achievement
by a Licensed Product comprising the applicable Licensed Antibody in the Territory, notwithstanding whether such Licensed Product achieves
the milestone event more than once.


 


If EQRx achieves any of the development milestone
events [***] for a Licensed Product without the prior achievement of any corresponding earlier listed development milestone events for
such Licensed Product, then EQRx will pay to Licensor the applicable milestone payment to be made with respect to such earlier development
milestone events for such Licensed Product at the same time as EQRx pays the applicable milestone payment due upon achievement of such
development milestone event. For example, if development milestone event [***] in Table 8.2(b) above has not been achieved
at the time development milestone event [***] in Table 8.2(b) above is achieved, then EQRx will pay to Licensor the milestone
payment to be made with respect to such development milestone event [***] at the same time as EQRx pays the milestone payment due upon
achievement of such development milestone event [***] For the avoidance of doubt, development milestone events [***] are independent of
each other, such that, for example, achievement of development milestone event [***] prior to achievement of development milestone event
[***] would not require EQRx to pay to Licensor the milestone payment to be made with respect to achievement of such development milestone
event [***] at the same time as EQRx pays the milestone payment due upon achievement of such development milestone event [***] EQRx will
provide Licensor with written notice of the achievement of the milestone event in this Section 8.2 (Regulatory and Sales Milestone
Payments) within [***] after the achievement of the applicable milestone event by EQRx or any of its Affiliates, or within [***] after
EQRx has knowledge of the achievement of the applicable milestone event by a Sublicensee. Licensor will invoice EQRx following receipt
of such written notice [***] and EQRx will pay the associated milestone payment within [***] of the receipt of such invoice, provided
that EQRx shall pay to Licensor the applicable milestone payment with respect to any Development milestone event that was achieved after
the Term Sheet Effective Date and prior to the Effective Date no later than [***] after the Effective Date. Such payment will be made
by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account designated by Licensor.

(b) Reports; Payment.
The Net Sales Royalty calculation will be delivered in writing by EQRx to Licensor within [***] and will include the aggregate gross sales
of the Licensed Product in the Territory during [***] the corresponding Net Sales of the Licensed Product in the Territory during [***]
the aggregate amount of Net Sales in the current Net Sales Year (or the current and most recently completed Net Sales Year if a Net Sales
Year ended during such [***]), and the amount of the Net Sales Royalty payment payable with respect to such Net Sales (each, a “Net
Sales Statement”). All royalty payments will be payable concurrently with the delivery of the Net Sales Statement for [***]
All payments under this Agreement shall be payable, in full, in U.S. dollars, regardless of the country(ies) in which such sales are made.
For purposes of computing the Net Sales Royalty of any Licensed Product that is sold in a currency other than United States dollars, such
currency shall be converted into United States dollars at [***] EQRx will pay the Net Sales Royalty in United States dollars by wire transfer
to an account designated in writing by Licensor concurrently when EQRx provides the Net Sales Statement.

(c) Reductions. Notwithstanding
the foregoing:


 


(i) Royalty Reduction
upon Patent Right Expiration. If, on a country-by-country basis, pursuant to Section 8.3(a) (Net Sales Royalty), any Net Sales
Royalties are payable on Net Sales of a Licensed Product attributable to any country in the Territory where there is no Patent within
the Licensor Licensed Technology containing a Valid Claim covering such Licensed Product in such country (i.e., Net Sales Royalties are
payable on Net Sales of a Licensed Product in a country on the basis of clauses (b) or (c) in the definition of Royalty Term), then, except
as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.3(c) (Reductions), the royalty rates applicable to those Net Sales of such Licensed Product
for such country will be reduced by [***] from those set forth in Section 8.3(a) (Net Sales Royalty); provided that
[***]


 


(ii) Reduction
for Biosimilar Competition. On a country-by-country basis in the Territory, the Net Sales Royalty payable to Licensor for Net Sales
of Licensed Products will be reduced (A) by [***] of the applicable royalty rate(s) set forth in Section 8.3(a) (Net Sales Royalty),
following a launch of a Biosimilar Product, if [***] For clarity, such reduction will not apply for any [***] in which the market share
of Biosimilar Products does not meet either threshold in the preceding sentence. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the sales of
each such Biosimilar Product [***] will be [***]


 


(iii) Reduction
for Blocking IP. With respect to any Third Party License pursuant to which EQRx is granted rights under any Blocking IP to Exploit
the Licensed Products in a country or jurisdiction in the Territory, EQRx will be entitled to deduct from any Net Sales Royalties payable
hereunder with respect to that country or other jurisdiction [***] of royalties or other amounts paid to such Third Party under such Third
Party License to the extent allocable or specific to the Licensed Products.


 


(iv) Royalty Floor.
In no event will the Net Sales Royalties otherwise due to Licensor for the Licensed Products in a Calendar Quarter during the Royalty
Term be reduced [***] of the amount that would otherwise be due in such [***] for the Licensed Products but for the reductions set forth
in this Section 8.3(c) (Reductions). However, if EQRx is unable to fully offset against Net Sales Royalties paid to any Third Party
pursuant to a Third Party License in consideration for rights with respect to Blocking IP as permitted under Section 8.3(c)(iii)
(Reduction for Blocking IP) on account of the royalty floor set forth in this Section 8.3(c)(iv) (Royalty Floor), then any such
permitted deductions may be carried forward to reduce subsequent royalty payments in future periods (again subject to the royalty floor
set forth in this Section 8.3(c)(iv) (Royalty Floor)).


 


8.4 Compulsory License.
In the event that a court or a governmental agency of competent jurisdiction requires EQRx or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees to
grant a compulsory license to a Third Party permitting such Third Party to make, use or sell a Licensed Product in a country or other
jurisdiction in the Territory (each, a “Compulsory License”), then, Licensor and EQRx will [***] (or otherwise from
the grant of any such Compulsory License) in such country or jurisdiction in the Territory.


 






    18


     

    

 


8.5 Existing License Agreements.
Licensor shall be solely responsible for all upfront payments, milestone payments, royalties or other payments due to the licensor(s)
under the CS1001 Upstream License (collectively, “CS1001 Upstream License Costs”). Without limiting the foregoing,
if Licensor fails to pay any CS1001 Upstream License Costs or otherwise fails to maintain the CS1001 Upstream License as required by Section
10.2(j) (CS1001 Upstream License) and EQRx pays such CS1001 Upstream License Costs on Licensor’s behalf or otherwise incurs
any costs in connection with maintaining the CS1001 Upstream License, including costs associated with securing and maintaining a replacement
agreement if Licensor allows the CS1001 Upstream License to terminate or expire in violation of Section 10.2(j) (CS1001 Upstream
License), then EQRx shall be entitled to offset any such costs from any payments due to Licensor hereunder.


 


8.6 Books and Records;
Audit Rights.


 


(a) Licensor will have the right
to engage, at its own cost and expense, subject to this Section 8.6 (Books and Records; Audit Rights), an independent nationally
recognized public accounting firm in the United States chosen by [***] (which accounting firm will not be the external auditor of Licensor,
will not have been hired or paid on a contingency basis and will have experience auditing pharmaceutical companies) (a “CPA Firm”)
to conduct an audit of EQRx for the purposes of confirming EQRx’s compliance with the payment provisions of this Agreement.


 


(b) The CPA Firm will be given
access to and will be permitted to examine such books and records of EQRx as it will reasonably request, upon [***] prior written notice
having been given by Licensor, during regular business hours, for the sole purpose of determining compliance with the payment provisions
of this Agreement. Prior to any such examination taking place, the CPA Firm will enter into a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable
to EQRx with respect to the Know-How to which they are given access and will not contain in its report or otherwise disclose to Licensor
or any Third Party any information labeled by EQRx as being confidential customer information regarding pricing or other competitively
sensitive proprietary information.


 


(c) Licensor and EQRx will be
entitled to receive a full written report of the CPA Firm with respect to its findings and Licensor will provide, without condition or
qualification, EQRx with a copy of the report, or other summary of findings, prepared by such CPA Firm promptly following Licensor’s
receipt of same. In the event of any dispute between Licensor and EQRx regarding the findings of any such inspection or audit, the Parties
will initially attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute amicably between themselves, and if the Parties are unable to resolve such
dispute within [***] after delivery to both Parties of the CPA Firm’s report, each Party will select an internationally recognized
independent certified public accounting firm (other than the CPA Firm), and the two firms chosen by the Parties will choose a third internationally
recognized independent certified public accounting firm which will resolve the dispute, and such accounting firm’s determination
will be binding on both Parties, absent manifest error by such accounting firm.


 


(d) Within [***] after completion
of the CPA Firm’s audit, EQRx will pay to Licensor any deficiency in the payment amount determined by the CPA Firm. If the report
of the CPA Firm shows that EQRx overpaid, then EQRx will be entitled to off-set such overpayment against any Net Sales Royalty then owed
to Licensor. If no royalty is then owed to Licensor, then Licensor will remit such overpayment to EQRx. If the report of the CPA Firm
shows a discrepancy between the amount of the royalty to which Licensor is entitled and the Net Sales Royalty amount reflected by EQRx
in the Net Sales Statement in Licensor’s favor, then in addition to the payment of the shortfall in the Net Sales Royalty amount,
and if such discrepancy exceeds [***]

(e) Licensor’s exercise
of its audit rights under this Section 8.6 (Books and Records; Audit Rights) may not (A) be conducted for [***] more than [***]
after the end of such [***] to which such books and records pertain, (B) be conducted more than [***] or (C) be repeated for any

In the event that EQRx determines, using Accounting Standards, that the licenses contemplated in this Agreement should be treated as a
“business combination” for accounting purposes, then, to the extent available to Licensor, Licensor shall deliver or, to the
extent any portion of the following is not available to Licensor, Licensor shall use reasonable efforts to produce or cause to be produced
and delivered, to EQRx, as soon as practicable, but in any event within [***] days after EQRx has provided notification of such treatment,
(i) [***] The financial information to be delivered described in this Section 8.6(f) (Financial Deliverables) will be prepared
in accordance with (I) the books and records of the business related to the Licensed Antibodies prepared by Licensor and certified by
its chief financial officer and (II) IFRS consistently applied with prior practice; provided, however, that all such information
is unaudited and may be subject to change. In the event of a public offering of the securities of EQRx and in compliance with the rules
of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to a registration statement related to such offering, Licensor shall deliver all
historical financial statements related to the Licensed Antibodies as soon as practicable, but in any event within [***] of receiving

8.7 Taxes.


 


(a) Taxes on Income.
Except as set forth in this Section 8.7 (Taxes), each Party will be solely responsible for the payment of any and all taxes levied
on account of all payments it receives under this Agreement.


 


(b) Tax Withholding.
If applicable laws require the withholding of taxes, then EQRx shall make such withholding payments in a timely manner and shall subtract
the amount thereof from the payments to Licensor. EQRx shall [***] submit to Licensor appropriate proof of payment of the withheld taxes
as well as the official receipts within a reasonable period of time. EQRx shall provide Licensor [***] in order to allow Licensor to obtain
the benefit of any present or future treaty against double taxation or refund or reduction in taxes that may apply to the payments under
this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Licensor is entitled under any applicable tax treaty to a reduction
of rate of, or the elimination of, or recovery of, applicable withholding taxes, it may deliver to EQRx or the appropriate governmental
authority in the Territory the prescribed forms necessary to reduce the applicable rate of withholding or to relieve EQRx of its obligation
to withhold taxes. In such case, EQRx shall apply the reduced rate of withholding, or not withhold, as the case may be, provided that
EQRx is in receipt of evidence, in a form reasonably satisfactory to EQRx (e.g., Licensor’s delivery of all applicable documentation)
prior to the time that the applicable payments are due.


 


(c) Tax Cooperation.
Each Party will provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by applicable law, of withholding taxes,
VAT, or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing

(d) Changes in Domicile.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if EQRx assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of some or all of its
rights and obligations to any Person and if, as a result of such action, the withholding or deduction of Tax required by applicable law
with respect to payments under this Agreement is increased, then any amount payable to Licensor under this Agreement will be [***] so
that, after making all required withholdings (including withholdings on the withheld amounts), Licensor receives [***]


 


(e) VAT. The Parties
agree to cooperate with one another and use reasonable efforts to ensure that any value added tax or similar payment (“VAT”)
[***] does not represent an unnecessary cost in respect of payments made under this Agreement. All sums payable under this Agreement shall
be exclusive of VAT, subject to the below. If any VAT is owing in any jurisdiction with respect to any such payment, then [***] shall
pay such VAT, and (i) if such VAT is owing as a result of any action by or on behalf of [***] (including the commercial operation of [***]),
including any permitted assignment or sublicense (including assignment to, or payment hereunder by, an Affiliate), or any failure on the
part of [***] or its Affiliates to comply with applicable tax laws or filing or record retention requirements, then the payment with respect
to which such VAT is owing shall be made to ensure that [***] receives the sum that it would have received had such VAT not been due;
or (ii) otherwise, such payment shall be made after deduction of such VAT that is due specifically in relation to [***] under this Agreement.
In the event that any deducted VAT is later recovered by [***] or its Affiliates, [***] shall promptly reimburse [***] for the deducted
amount. In the event that any VAT is owing in any jurisdiction in respect of any such payment, [***] tax invoices showing the correct
amount of VAT in respect of such payments hereunder.

at a rate equal to the lesser of: (a) [***] as published by The Wall Street Journal or any successor thereto on the [***] in which
such payments are overdue; or (b) the [***] in each case, calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent, [***]


 


8.9 No Other Compensation.
Other than as explicitly set forth (and as applicable) in this Agreement, neither EQRx nor any of its Affiliates will be obligated to
pay any additional fees, milestone payments, royalties or other payments of any kind to or on behalf of Licensor or any of its Affiliates
under this Agreement.


 


8.10 Other Amounts Payable.
With respect to any amounts owed under this Agreement by a Party to the other Party for which no other invoicing and payment procedure
is specified in this Agreement, the payee Party will provide an invoice, together with reasonable supporting documentation, to the paying
Party for such amounts owed. The paying Party will pay any undisputed amounts within [***] after receipt of the invoice, and will pay
any disputed amounts owed by the paying Party within [***] of resolution of the dispute.

INDEMNIFICATION


 


11.1 Indemnification by
Licensor. Subject to the remainder of this Article 11 (Indemnification), Licensor will defend, indemnify, and hold EQRx, its
Affiliates, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (the “EQRx Indemnitees”) harmless
from and against any and all liabilities, losses, costs, damages, fees, expenses or other amounts payable to a Third Party claimant, as
well as any reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation incurred by such EQRx Indemnitees, all to the extent resulting from
claims, suits, proceedings or causes of action brought by or on behalf of such Third Party against such EQRx Indemnitees that arise from
or are based on: [***] excluding, in each case ((a), (b), (c) and (d)), any damages or other amounts for which EQRx has an obligation
to indemnify any Licensor Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11.2 (Indemnification by EQRx).


 






    30


     

    

 


11.2 Indemnification by
EQRx. Subject to the remainder of this Article 11 (Indemnification), EQRx will defend, indemnify, and hold Licensor, its Affiliates,
and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (the “Licensor Indemnitees”) harmless from
and against any and all damages or other amounts payable to a Third Party claimant, as well as any reasonable attorneys’ fees and
costs of litigation incurred by such Licensor Indemnitees, all to the extent resulting from any claims, suits, proceedings or causes of
action brought by such Third Party against such Licensor Indemnitees that arise from or are based on: [***] excluding, in each case ((a),
(b), (c) and (d)), any damages or other amounts for which Licensor has an obligation to indemnify any EQRx Indemnitee pursuant to Section
11.1 (Indemnification by Licensor).


 


11.3 Indemnification Procedures.
The Party claiming indemnity under this Article 11 (Indemnification) (the “Indemnified Party”) will give written
notice to the Party from whom indemnity is being sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after learning of the claim,
suit, proceeding or cause of action for which indemnity is being sought (“Claim”). The Indemnifying Party’s obligation
to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless pursuant to Section 11.1 (Indemnification by Licensor) or Section 11.2 (Indemnification
by EQRx), as applicable, will be reduced to the extent the Indemnified Party’s delay in providing notification pursuant to the previous
sentence results in actual prejudice to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the failure by an Indemnified Party
to give such notice or otherwise meet its obligations under this Section 11.3 (Indemnification Procedures) will not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement. At its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense
and have exclusive control, at its own expense, of any Claim for which indemnity is being sought by giving written notice to the Indemnified
Party within [***] after receipt of the notice of the Claim. The assumption of defense of the Claim will not be construed as an acknowledgment
that the Indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify any Indemnified Party in respect of the Claim, nor will it constitute waiver by the
Indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. The Indemnified Party
will provide the Indemnifying Party with reasonable assistance, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, in connection with the defense.
The Indemnified Party may participate in and monitor such defense with counsel of its own choosing at its sole expense; provided, however,
the Indemnifying Party will have the right to assume and conduct the defense of the Claim with counsel of its choice. The Indemnifying
Party will not settle any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, unless the
settlement involves only the payment of money. The Indemnified Party will not settle any such Claim without the prior written consent
of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume and conduct the
defense of the Claim as provided above, (a) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement with respect to the Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party may deem reasonably appropriate (and the Indemnified
Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), and (b) the Indemnified Party
reserves any right it may have under this Article 11 (Indemnification) to obtain indemnification from the Indemnified Party.

11.4 Limitation of Liability.
IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR INDIRECT DAMAGES
OF ANY KIND ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CLAIMS ARISING HEREUNDER, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY
OF LIABILITY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE), REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 11.4 (LIMITATION OF LIABILITY) IS INTENDED TO OR WILL LIMIT
OR RESTRICT (A) THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF ANY PARTY UNDER SECTION 11.1 (INDEMNIFICATION BY LICENSOR) OR SECTION
11.2 (INDEMNIFICATION BY EQRX), (B) DAMAGES AVAILABLE IN THE CASE OF A PARTY’S [***] OR (C) DAMAGES AVAILABLE TO A PARTY FOR
A BREACH BY THE OTHER PARTY OF THE [***]


 


11.5 Insurance. During
the Term, each Party will obtain and maintain, at its individual sole expense, the following minimum required insurance, [***] Each Party
is required to obtain and maintain clinical trial insurance only for those trials they are sponsoring. Each Party will also maintain any
mandatory insurance, including workers compensation coverage, in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations. Commercial insurance
will be obtained from reputable and financially secure insurance carriers having a minimum A.M. Best rating (or equivalent) of A-. Each
Party will ensure continuity of coverage for claims, which may be presented during [***] Each Party will furnish to the other Party, on
request, certificates of insurance evidencing the minimum required insurance, including notice of cancellation to be provided in accordance
with the terms of the insurance policies. Each Party further agrees to provide written notice to the other within [***] of becoming aware
of any material change which prevents compliance with the foregoing insurance obligations, except for cancellation due to non-payment
or premiums, in which case notice will be provided at [***] prior to such cancellation. A Party’s failure to maintain minimum required
insurance will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement by such Party. Such insurance will not be construed to create a limit of
the insured Party’s liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Article 11 (Indemnification).

CONFIDENTIALITY


 


12.1 Confidentiality; Exceptions.
Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed in writing, during the Term and for [***] thereafter,
the Parties agree that the receiving Party will keep confidential and will not publish or otherwise disclose or use for any purpose other
than as provided for in this Agreement any information and materials furnished to it by or on behalf of the other Party or any of its
Affiliates or generated pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “Confidential Information”). For any Confidential
Information that constitutes trade secrets of either Party, the foregoing non-disclosure obligations will continue for as long as such
Confidential Information remains trade secrets. For clarity, Confidential Information of a Party or any of its Affiliates will include,
without limitation, all information and materials disclosed by such Party or any of its Affiliates or their respective designees that
(a) is marked as “Confidential,” “Proprietary” or with similar designation at the time of disclosure or (b) by
its nature can reasonably be expected to be considered Confidential Information by the recipient. Know-How disclosed orally will not be
required to be identified as such to be considered Confidential Information. The terms of this Agreement will be deemed to be the Confidential
Information of both Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information will not include any information to the extent that
it can be established by written documentation by the receiving Party that such information (a) was already known to the receiving Party,
other than under an obligation of confidentiality (except to the extent such obligation has expired or an exception is applicable under
the relevant agreement pursuant to which such obligation was established), at the time of disclosure, (b) was generally available to the
public or otherwise part of the public domain at the time of its disclosure to the receiving Party, (c) became generally available to
the public or otherwise part of the public domain after its disclosure and other than through any act or omission of the receiving Party
in breach of this Agreement, (d) was independently developed by the receiving Party as demonstrated by written documentation prepared
contemporaneously with such independent development; or (e) was disclosed to the receiving Party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality
(except to the extent such obligation has expired or an exception is applicable under the relevant agreement pursuant to which such obligation
was established), by a Third Party who had no obligation to the disclosing Party not to disclose such information to others.


 






    32


     

    

 


12.2 Authorized Disclosure.


 


(a) Permitted Disclosure.
Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, each Party may use and disclose Confidential Information of the other Party
solely as follows: (i) under appropriate confidentiality provisions substantially equivalent to those in this Agreement (but of shorter
duration, if customary): (A) in connection with the performance of its obligations or as reasonably necessary or useful in the exercise
of its rights under this Agreement, including the right to grant licenses or sublicenses as permitted hereunder, (B) to the extent such
disclosure is reasonably necessary or useful in conducting Clinical Trials under this Agreement; or (C) to actual or potential (sub)licensees,
acquirers or assignees, collaborators, investment bankers, investors or lenders (including in connection with any royalty factoring transaction),
or; (ii) to the extent such disclosure is to a governmental authority as reasonably necessary in filing or prosecuting Patent, copyright
and trademark applications in accordance with this Agreement, prosecuting or defending litigation related to this Agreement, complying
with applicable governmental regulations with respect to performance under this Agreement (including any disclosure to any securities
exchange), obtaining Regulatory Approval or Marketing Approval or fulfilling post-approval regulatory obligations for the Licensed Antibodies
or Licensed Products, or otherwise required by applicable law; provided, however, that if a Party is required by applicable
law or the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system to make any such disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential
Information it will, except where impracticable for necessary disclosures (for example, in the event of medical emergency), give reasonable
advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure requirement and, in each of the foregoing, will use its reasonable efforts to secure
confidential treatment of such Confidential Information required to be disclosed and will only disclose that Confidential Information
that is required to be disclosed; (iii) to advisors (including lawyers and accountants) on a need to know basis, in each case under
appropriate confidentiality provisions or professional standards of confidentiality substantially equivalent to those of this Agreement,
or (iv) to the extent mutually agreed to by the Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Licensor may issue an inside
information announcement pursuant to the requirement of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange upon or after the Execution Date, substantially in
the form of Schedule 12.2(a) (Licensor HKSE Announcement).


 






    33


     

    

 


(b) Disclosure to SEC.
Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Party may submit this Agreement to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) and if a Party does submit this Agreement to the SEC, then such Party agrees to consult with the other Party
with respect to the preparation and submission of, a confidential treatment request for this Agreement. If a Party is required by applicable
law to make a disclosure of the terms of this Agreement in a filing with or other submission to the SEC, and (i) such Party has provided
copies of the disclosure to the other Party as far in advance of such filing or other disclosure as is reasonably practicable under the
circumstances, (ii) such Party has promptly notified the other Party in writing of such requirement and any respective timing constraints,
and (iii) such Party has given the other Party a reasonable time under the circumstances from the date of notice by such Party of the
required disclosure to comment upon, request confidential treatment or approve such disclosure, then such Party will have the right to
make such public disclosure at the time and in the manner reasonably determined by its counsel to be required by applicable law. Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary herein, it is hereby understood and agreed that if a Party seeking to make a disclosure to the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission as set forth in this Section 12.2 (Authorized Disclosure), and the other Party provides comments within
the respective time periods or constraints specified herein or within the respective notice, the Party seeking to make such disclosure
or its counsel, as the case may be, will in good faith (A) consider incorporating such comments and (B) use reasonable efforts to incorporate
such comments, limit disclosure or obtain confidential treatment to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party to the extent permitted
by applicable law. Each Party will have the right to issue additional press releases or to make public disclosures with the prior written
agreement of the other Party.


 


(c) Press Release. Other
than the announcement by Licensor set forth in Schedule 12.2(a) (Licensor HKSE Announcement) and public disclosure permitted by
Section 12.2(a) (Permitted Disclosure) and Section 12.2(b) (Disclosure to SEC) and disclosures required by applicable
law, the Parties agree that the portions of any other news release or other public announcement relating to this Agreement or the performance
hereunder that would disclose information that is not already in the public domain, must first be reviewed and approved by both Parties
(with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). After a disclosure or other public announcement has been reviewed and
approved by both Parties under this Section 12.2 (Authorized Disclosure), either Party may make subsequent public disclosures
reiterating such information without having to obtain the other Party’s prior consent and approval, so long as the information in
such disclosure or other public announcement remains true, correct, and the most current information with respect to the subject matters
set forth therein.


 


12.3 Prior Agreement.
This Agreement supersedes the Existing Nondisclosure Agreement. All confidential information exchanged between the Parties under the Existing
Nondisclosure Agreement will be deemed Confidential Information of the disclosing Party and will be subject to the terms of this Agreement.


 






    34


     

    

 


12.4 Publications.
Except as required by applicable law or court order, any publication, presentation or abstract concerning the activities conducted under
this Agreement, the Licensed Antibodies or the Licensed Products will be subject to the oversight, guidelines and approval of the JSC.
The JSC will establish, promptly after the Effective Date, guidelines that require: (a) each Party’s timely review of all such
publications, presentations or abstracts, (b) protection of Confidential Information and coordination with EQRx or Licensor prior to any
disclosure of patentable subject matter, (c) that all such publications, presentations and abstracts are consistent with good scientific
practice and accurately reflect work done and the contributions of the Parties, and (d) that no such publication, presentation or abstract
be made except to the extent approved by the JSC in advance in writing. Unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Parties, (i) the
Party desiring to publish or present any publication, presentation or abstract concerning the activities to be conducted hereunder (the
“Publishing Party”) will transmit to the other Party (the “Reviewing Party”) for review and comment
a copy of the proposed publication, presentation or abstract [***] prior to the proposed submission of the publication, presentation or
abstract to a Third Party; (ii) the Reviewing Party shall provide the Publishing Party with its comments in writing, if any, within [***]
after receipt of such proposed publication, presentation or abstract and the Publishing Party shall consider in good faith any comments
provided by the Reviewing Party and shall remove any and all of the Reviewing Party’s Confidential Information from the proposed
publication, presentation or abstract to the extent requested by the Reviewing Party; and (iii) the Publishing Party will postpone the
publication, presentation or abstract by upon request by the Reviewing Party in order to allow the consideration of appropriate patent
applications or other protection on information contained in the publication, presentation or abstract. The Parties agree that following
the dissolution of the JSC pursuant to Section 3.4 (Discontinuation of JSC), the restrictions in this Section 12.4 (Publications)
will be of no further force and effect, and all publications, presentations and abstracts concerning the activities conducted under this
Agreement will be coordinated directly between the Parties.


 


12.5 Attorney-Client Privilege.
Neither Party is waiving, nor will be deemed to have waived or diminished, any of its attorney work product protections, attorney-client
privileges or similar protections and privileges as a result of disclosing information pursuant to this Agreement, or any of its Confidential
Information (including Confidential Information related to pending or threatened litigation) to the receiving Party, regardless of whether
the disclosing Party has asserted, or is or may be entitled to assert, such privileges and protections. The Parties: (a) share a common
legal and commercial interest in such disclosure that is subject to such privileges and protections; (b) are or may become joint defendants
in proceedings to which the information covered by such protections and privileges relates; (c) intend that such privileges and protections
remain intact should either Party become subject to any actual or threatened proceeding to which the disclosing Party’s Confidential
Information covered by such protections and privileges relates; and (d) intend that after the Effective Date both the receiving Party
and the disclosing Party will have the right to assert such protections and privileges.

business information back-up procedures pursuant to its electronic record retention and destruction practices that apply to its own general
electronic files and information.

to transfer to Licensor the Exploitation of Licensed Products with respect to the Terminated Antibod(ies), and will execute all documents

with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.


 






    40


     

    

 


(ii) During
the applicable Termination Notice Period, neither Party will make any statement to any Third Party, whether written, verbal, electronic
or otherwise, that disparages any Licensed Antibody or Licensed Product, the work performed by either Party under this Agreement, or the
other Party.


 


13.7 Other
Remedies. Termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason will not release either Party from any liability or obligation
that already has accrued prior to such expiration or termination, nor affect the survival of any provision hereof to the extent it is
expressly stated to survive such termination. Termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason will not constitute a waiver
or release of, or otherwise be deemed to prejudice or adversely affect, any rights, remedies or claims, whether for damages or otherwise,
that a Party may have hereunder or that may arise out of or in connection with such termination or expiration.


 


13.8 Rights
in Bankruptcy. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement by Licensor and EQRx are, and will otherwise be
deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, licenses of right to “intellectual property” as
defined under Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Parties agree that each Party, as licensee of certain rights under this Agreement,
will retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Parties further agree that, in
the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against a Party (such Party, the “Bankrupt Party”) under
the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the other Party will be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any intellectual
property licensed to such other Party and all embodiments of such intellectual property, which, if not already in such other Party’s
possession, will be promptly delivered to it (a) upon any such commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding upon such other Party’s written
request therefor, unless the Bankrupt Party elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement or (b) if not delivered
under clause (a), following the rejection of this Agreement by the Bankrupt Party upon written request therefor by the other Party. The
Parties acknowledge and agree that the milestones and royalties to be paid pursuant to Article 8 (Financials) will constitute royalties
within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code § 365(n) with respect to the licenses of intellectual property hereunder.


 


13.9 Survival.
Termination or expiration of this Agreement will not affect rights or obligations of the Parties under this Agreement that have accrued
prior to the date of termination or expiration of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the following provisions
will survive and apply after expiration or termination of this Agreement in its entirety: Article 1 (Definitions), Section 4.8
(Development Records), Section 8.3 (Royalties) (but only with respect to Net Sales made during the Term), Section 8.6 (Books
and Records; Audit Rights) (but only with respect to payment obligations accruing during the Term and only for a period of three years
after expiration or termination), Section 8.8 (Late Payments) (but only with respect to payment obligations accruing during the
Term), Section 9.1 (Ownership), Section 10.4 (No Other Representations or Warranties), Article 11 (Indemnification),
Article 12 (Confidentiality), Section 13.1 (Term), Section 13.6 (Effects of Termination), Section 13.7
(Other Remedies), Section 13.8 (Rights in Bankruptcy), this Section 13.9 (Survival), Article 15 (Dispute Resolution),
and Article 16 (Miscellaneous). In addition, the other applicable provisions of Article 8 (Financials) will survive such
expiration or termination of this Agreement in its entirety to the extent required to make final reimbursements, reconciliations or other
payments incurred or accrued prior to the date of termination or expiration. For any surviving provisions requiring action or decision
by the JSC or an Executive Officer, each Party will appoint representatives to act as its JSC members or Executive Officer, as applicable.
All provisions not surviving in accordance with the foregoing will terminate upon expiration or termination of this Agreement and be of
no further force and effect.

EFFECTIVENESS


 


14.1 Effective
Date. Except for the Parties’ obligations under Article 12 (Confidentiality) and this Article 14 (Effectiveness),
which will be effective as of the Execution Date, this Agreement will not become effective until the first Business Day after the Antitrust
Clearance Date (the “Effective Date”); provided that the Effective Date will not occur (a) if either Party exercises
its termination right under Section 14.3 (Outside Date) prior to the Antitrust Clearance Date, or (b) if and for so long as there
is in force any applicable law (i) enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii)
imposing any conditions in connection with such effectiveness, and no action, proceeding, or investigation brought by a governmental authority
is pending that would reasonably be expected to lead to any of the foregoing that would be material in the context of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.


 


14.2 Filings.
Each Party will unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, [***] following the Execution Date, file those Antitrust Filings required under
the applicable Antitrust Laws (the “Required Filings”). The Parties will reasonably cooperate with one another to the
extent necessary in the preparation and execution of all such documents that are required to be filed pursuant to the Required Filings.
Each Party will be responsible for its own costs and expenses associated with any such Required Filing, including premerger filing fees
incurred by each Party associated with any such Required Filing. With respect to the Required Filings, the Parties will use reasonable
efforts to seek early termination of the applicable waiting period and each use reasonable efforts to ensure that any applicable waiting
period under the applicable Antitrust Law expires or is terminated as soon as practicable and to obtain any necessary approvals or consents
under such applicable Antitrust Law, at the earliest possible date after the date of filing. To the extent permitted under applicable
law and by the applicable governmental authorities, the Parties shall (a) provide each other reasonable advance written notice of any
meetings or telephone conferences with a governmental authority under the HSR Act relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
and (b) permit each other to attend and participate in those meetings and telephone conferences. Each Party shall (i) provide the other
with reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any written submissions, and shall consider comments in good faith, and (ii) keep
the other Party apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests for information from, any governmental
authority under the HSR Act, regardless of whether such other Party declines to participate in any meetings or telephone conferences;
provided that neither Party will be obligated to disclose any commercially sensitive or privileged information, and to the extent the
Parties agree to share information of this nature, such exchange and review will be limited to the Parties’ outside counsel only.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement (including this Section 14.2
(Filings)) will require either Party or any of its Affiliates to (a) disclose to the other Party or any of its Affiliates any information
that is subject to obligations of confidentiality or non-use owed to Third Parties (nor will either Party be required to conduct joint
meetings with any governmental authority in which such information might be shared with the other Party), (b) commit to any consent decree
or similar undertaking, or any divestiture, license (in whole or in part), or any arrangement to hold separate (or any similar arrangement)
with respect to any of its products or assets, or (c) litigate.


 




    42


     

    

 


14.3 Outside
Date. This Agreement will terminate at the election of either Party, immediately upon written notice to the other Party, (a) if any
governmental authority in any Clearance Country seeks a permanent injunction under applicable Antitrust Laws against the Parties to enjoin
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (b) in the event that the Antitrust Clearance Date will not have occurred on or prior
to [***] after the submission of the Required Filing, and the Parties have not agreed in writing to extend the Antitrust Clearance Date.
In the event of such termination, this Agreement will be of no further force and effect.


 


Article
15

DISPUTE RESOLUTION


 


15.1 Dispute
Resolution.


 


(a) In
the event of any dispute between the Parties under this Agreement, the Parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute
by negotiation and consultation between themselves. In the event that such dispute is not resolved on an informal basis within [***] either
Party may refer the matter to the Executive Officers of the Parties for attempted resolution, whereupon the Executive Officers will confer
and attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute by negotiation and consultation for a [***] following such referral.


 


(b) If
the Executive Officers do not resolve such dispute within such [***] either Party may at any time thereafter proceed to binding arbitration
in accordance with this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution). A Party may submit such dispute to arbitration at Singapore International
Arbitration Centre (“SIAC”) by notifying the other Party, in writing, of such dispute. Within [***] after receipt of
such notice, the Parties shall each designate in writing an arbitrator to resolve the dispute. Both of the designated arbitrators will
elect a third arbitrator; provided, however, that if the designated arbitrators cannot agree on a third arbitrator within
[***] after both arbitrators have been designated, the third arbitrator shall be selected by the SIAC. The arbitrator shall be a lawyer
with biotechnology and/or pharmaceutical industry legal experience, and shall not be an Affiliate, employee, consultant, officer, director
or stockholder of any Party.


 


(c) Within
[***] after the designation of the arbitrator, the arbitrator and the Parties shall meet, at which time the Parties shall be required
to set forth in writing all disputed issues and a proposed ruling on the merits of each such issue. The Parties shall have the right to
be represented by counsel. Except as provided herein, the arbitration shall be governed by the Arbitration Rules of SIAC (the “SIAC
Rules”).


 


(d) The
arbitrator shall use his or her best efforts to rule on each disputed issue within [***] after the completion of any hearings associated
with the arbitration. The determination of the arbitrator as to the resolution of any dispute shall be binding and conclusive upon all
Parties. The arbitrator shall issue a written award that contains a reasoned opinion setting forth the findings of fact and conclusions
upon which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded.


 






    43


     

    

 


(e) The
(i) attorneys’ fees of the Parties in any arbitration, (ii) fees of the arbitrator and (iii) costs and expenses of the arbitration
shall be borne by the Parties as determined by the arbitrator.


 


(f) Any
arbitration pursuant to this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution) shall be conducted in Singapore.


 


(g) The
Parties intend that each award by an arbitrator in an arbitration pursuant to this Section 15.1 (Dispute Resolution) shall be rendered
in accordance with the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Arbitral Awards and shall be enforceable in accordance
therewith.


 


(h) The
arbitrator shall take appropriate actions to prevent, remediate, and/or sanction abusive conduct or other actions that threaten to undermine
the fair, speedy and cost-effective resolution of the matter.


 


(i) In
addition, during the pendency of any dispute under this Agreement initiated before the end of any applicable cure period under Section
13.3(a) (Termination of Entire Agreement for Material Breach) or Section 13.3(b) (Termination on a Licensed Antibody-by-Licensed
Antibody Basis for Material Breach), (i) this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, (ii) the provisions of this Agreement relating
to termination for material breach will not be effective, (iii) the time periods for cure under Section 13.3(a) (Termination of
Entire Agreement for Material Breach) or Section 13.3(b) (Termination on a Licensed Antibody-by-Licensed Antibody Basis for Material
Breach) as to any termination notice given prior to the initiation of the proceeding will be tolled, and (iv) neither Party will issue
a notice of termination pursuant to this Agreement based on the subject matter of the proceeding (and no effect will be given to previously
issued termination notices), until the arbitrator has confirmed the existence of the facts claimed by a Non-Breaching Party to be the
basis for the asserted material breach.


 


15.2 Injunctive
Relief; Remedy for Breach of Exclusivity. Nothing in this Article 15 (Dispute Resolution) will preclude either Party from seeking
equitable relief or interim or provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary
injunction or other interim equitable relief, concerning a dispute either prior to or during any proceeding if necessary to protect the
interests of such Party or to preserve the status quo pending the proceeding. Therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies otherwise
available at law, including the recovery of damages for breach of this Agreement, upon an adequate showing of material breach, and without
further proof of irreparable harm other than this acknowledgement, such Non-Breaching Party will be entitled to seek (a) immediate equitable
relief, specifically including, but not limited to, both interim and permanent restraining orders and injunctions, and (b) such other
and further equitable relief as the court may deem proper under the circumstances. For clarity, nothing in this Section 15.2 (Injunctive
Relief; Remedy for Breach of Exclusivity) will otherwise limit a Breaching Party’s opportunity to cure a material breach as permitted
in accordance with Section 13.3(a) (Termination of Entire Agreement for Material Breach ) or Section 13.3(b) (Termination
on a Licensed Antibody-by-Licensed Antibody Basis for Material Breach).

MISCELLANEOUS


 


16.1 Entire
Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, including the Exhibits hereto, set forth the complete, final and exclusive agreement and all
the covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties hereto with respect
to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties existing as of the Execution Date
with respect to the subject matter hereof. In the event of any inconsistency between any plan hereunder and this Agreement, the terms
of this Agreement will prevail. There are no covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions or understandings,
either oral or written, between the Parties other than as are set forth herein and therein. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change
or addition to this Agreement will be binding upon the Parties unless reduced to writing and signed by an authorized officer of each Party.


 


16.2 Force
Majeure. Both Parties will be excused from the performance of their obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such performance
is prevented or delayed by force majeure and the nonperforming Party promptly provides notice of the prevention to the other Party. Such
excuse will be continued so long as the condition constituting force majeure continues and the nonperforming Party takes reasonable efforts
to remove the condition; provided, however, that if the condition constituting force majeure continues for more than [***]
the other Party will have the option to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice, provided further that, if the
[***] then the termination right set forth in the preceding clause shall not apply, and the termination right set forth in Section
13.4 (Termination for Cessation of Development and Commercialization) will control. For purposes of this Agreement, force majeure
will mean conditions beyond the control of the Parties, including an act of God, war, civil commotion, terrorist act, labor strike or
lock-out not specifically aimed at such Party, epidemic or pandemic (including government or private mitigation actions with respect thereto),
failure or default of public utilities or common carriers, destruction of production facilities or materials by fire, earthquake, storm
or like catastrophe, and failure of plant or machinery (provided that such failure could not have been prevented by the exercise
of skill, diligence, and prudence that would be reasonably and ordinarily expected from a skilled and experienced person engaged in the
same type of undertaking under the same or similar circumstances). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party will not be excused from making
payments owed hereunder because of a force majeure affecting such Party.


 


16.3 Notices.
Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement will be in writing, will specifically refer to this Agreement, and will
be addressed to the appropriate Party at the address specified below or such other address as may be specified by such Party in writing
in accordance with this Section 16.3 (Notices), and will be deemed to have been given for all purposes (a) when received, if hand-delivered
or sent by a reputable international expedited delivery service, or (b) [***] after mailing, if mailed by first class certified or registered
mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested. This Section 16.3 (Notices) is not intended to govern the day-to-day business
communications necessary between the Parties in performing their obligations under the terms of this Agreement.

16.4 No
Strict Construction; Headings. This Agreement has been prepared jointly and will not be strictly construed against either Party. Ambiguities,
if any, in this Agreement will not be construed against any Party, irrespective of which Party may be deemed to have authored the ambiguous
provision. The headings of each Article and Section in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not
intended to limit or expand on the meaning of the language contained in the particular Article or Section.


 






    46


     

    

 


16.5 Interpretation.
Whenever any provision of this Agreement uses the term “including” (or “includes”), such term will be deemed to
mean “including without limitation” (or “includes without limitations”). “Herein,” “hereby,”
“hereunder,” “hereof” and other equivalent words refer to this Agreement as an entirety and not solely to the
particular portion of this Agreement in which any such word is used. The term “or” means “and/or” hereunder. The
word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. Any definition of or reference
to any agreement, instrument or other document herein will be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as
from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications
set forth herein). All definitions set forth herein will be deemed applicable whether the words defined are used herein in the singular
or the plural. Unless otherwise provided, all references to Sections, Schedules, and Exhibits in this Agreement are to Sections, Schedules
and Exhibits of this Agreement. References to any Sections include Sections and subsections that are part of the related Section (e.g.,
a section numbered “Section 3.2” would be part of “Section 3”, and references to “Section 3.2” would
also refer to material contained in the subsection described as “Section 3.2(a)”). Any reference herein to any person will
be construed to include the person’s successors and assigns. The word “notice” means notice in writing (whether or not
specifically stated) and will include notices, consents, approvals and other written communications contemplated under this Agreement.
Provisions that require that a Party, the Parties or any committee hereunder “agree,” “consent,” “approve,”
or the like will require that such agreement, consent, or approval be specific and in writing, whether by written agreement, letter, approved
minutes, or otherwise (but excluding e-mail and instant messaging). References to any specific law, rule or regulation, or section or
other division thereof, will be deemed to include the then-current amendments thereto or any replacement or successor law, rule or regulation
thereof. Unless otherwise stated, dollar amounts set forth in this Agreement are U.S. dollars. Each Party has had the opportunity to consult
with counsel in connection with the review, drafting and negotiation of this Agreement. Accordingly, the rule of construction that any
ambiguity in this Agreement will be construed against the drafting Party will not apply.


 


16.6 Assignment.
Neither Party may assign or transfer (whether by operation of applicable law or otherwise) this Agreement or any rights or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, except that (a) a Party may make such an assignment without the other Party’s
consent to an Affiliate or to a successor to substantially all of such Party’s business, whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale
of assets, reorganization or other transaction, and (b) Licensor may [***] Any permitted successor or assignee of rights or obligations
hereunder will, in a writing to the other Party, expressly assume performance of such rights or obligations (and in any event, any Party
assigning this Agreement to an Affiliate will remain bound by the terms and conditions hereof). Any permitted assignment will be binding
on and inure to the benefit of the successors of the assigning Party. Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation
of the terms of this Section 16.6 (Assignment) will be null, void and of no legal effect.


 


16.7 Performance
by Affiliates. Each Party may perform any obligations and exercise any right hereunder through any of its Affiliates, provided that
such Party will remain primarily responsible for the other Party hereunder. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by any of its
Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and will cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this
Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under
this Agreement will be deemed a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation
to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate.


 






    47


     

    

 


16.8 Further
Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments, and to do all such other acts, as may be
necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.


 


16.9 Severability.
If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or by any court of competent
jurisdiction from which no appeal can be or is taken, the provision will be considered severed from this Agreement and will not serve
to invalidate any remaining provisions hereof. The Parties will make a good faith effort to replace any invalid or unenforceable provision
with a valid and enforceable one such that the objectives contemplated by the Parties when entering into this Agreement may be realized.


 


16.10 No
Waiver. Any delay in enforcing a Party’s rights under this Agreement or any waiver as to a particular default or other matter
will not constitute a waiver of such Party’s rights to the future enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, except with respect
to an express written and signed waiver relating to a particular matter for a particular period of time.


 


16.11 Independent
Contractors. Each Party will act solely as an independent contractor, and nothing in this Agreement will be construed to give either
Party the power or authority to act for, bind, or commit the other Party in any way. Nothing herein will be construed to create the relationship
of partners, principal and agent, or joint-venture partners between the Parties.


 


16.12 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in one (1) or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will
constitute one and the same instrument.


 


16.13 Choice
of Law. This Agreement will be governed by, and enforced and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without
regard to its conflicts of law provisions.

CStone and EQRx Enter Global Strategic Partnership
for Two Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: sugemalimab (anti-PD-L1) and CS1003 (anti-PD-1)


 


		●	CStone to out-license to EQRx exclusive rights to two late-stage immuno-oncology assets for development
and commercialization outside of Greater China



 


		●	Agreement provides a pathway to bring CStone’s sugemalimab (anti-PD-L1) and CS1003 (anti-PD-1) to
global patient communities by partnering with a company with an innovative business model and unique ability to commercialize these two
assets competitively against established treatments



 


		●	Terms demonstrate the significant global commercial potential of these two assets and provide immediate
cash proceeds to invest in strategic initiatives



 


(SUZHOU, China, October 27, 2020) CStone Pharmaceuticals
(“CStone”, HKEX: 2616) announced today an agreement to out-license ex-Greater China rights for two key late-stage immuno-oncology
assets, sugemalimab (anti-PD-L1) and CS1003 (anti-PD-1), to EQRx, a biopharmaceutical company with an innovative business model that will
allow these drugs to be competitively positioned in global markets against established treatments for the target indications.


 


Under the terms of the agreement, CStone will
receive an upfront payment of US$150 million and up to US$1.15 billion in milestone payments for both drugs as well as separate tiered
royalties. EQRx will obtain exclusive rights to lead global development and commercialization worldwide, excluding Mainland China, Taiwan,
Hong Kong and Macau. CStone retains rights to CS1003 in Greater China, where it can continue to pursue development as a monotherapy or
as part of its combination strategy for this drug.


 


Frank Jiang, M.D., Ph.D., Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of CStone, said: “We are pleased to be partnering with EQRx, an outstanding company led by an exceptional management team
with a track record of building and investing in biotech companies as well as leadership roles at commanding heights of the industry.
They have a unique blend of expertise to execute on this agreement and maximize the global potential of our two lead immuno-oncology assets.


 


“This partnership demonstrates the clinical
as well as the commercial potential of sugemalimab and CS1003. Both are well suited to serve as backbone molecules for various combination
therapies, an approach that is part of EQRx’s vision for these drugs. The broad potential to develop combination therapies further
strengthens our ability to pursue our combo strategy for CS1003 in China. In addition, the capital proceeds that we generate through this
transaction will enhance our ability to invest in strategic development initiatives and advance our transition into a fully integrated
biopharma company.”


 


Alexis Borisy, Chairman, Founder and Chief Executive
Officer of EQRx, said: “CStone is recognized globally for excellence in drug development and we look forward to advancing their
foundational work to expand access to these two late-stage, innovative immunotherapies. We believe the addition of PD-L1 and PD-1 drug
candidates to our expanding clinical pipeline provides EQRx and our strategic partners with optionality to deliver high-quality, lower
cost treatment regimens across a broad range of cancers. Ultimately, adding this unique combination of potentially best-in-class immunotherapeutic
agents advances our mission to deliver equal access to innovative medicines while lowering costs for patients, payers and healthcare systems
around the world.”


 




    Schedule 12.2(a) - 5


     

    

 


Sugemalimab is a potential best-in-class PD-L1
antibody that is being developed for high-incidence cancer indications in China, including frontline non-small cell lung, gastric and
esophageal cancers, among others. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has recently granted Breakthrough Therapy
Designation (“BTD”) to this drug for adult relapsed or refractory extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (“R/R
ENKTL”), and orphan drug designation (“ODD”) for T-cell lymphoma. CS1003 is currently being studied for the
treatment of advanced solid tumors, including a global registration trial in first-line hepatocellular carcinoma. The FDA has granted
ODD for this indication.


 


Closing of the agreement is subject to expiration
or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act.


 


About Sugemalimab (PD-L1)


 


Sugemalimab is an investigational anti-PD-L1 monoclonal
antibody discovered by CStone. Authorized by a company based in the U.S., Ligand Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: LGND), sugemalimab is developed
using the OmniRat® transgenic animal platform, which can generate fully human antibodies in one stop. As a fully human, full-length
anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody, sugemalimab mirrors the natural G-type immunoglobulin 4 (“IgG4”) human antibody, which
may reduce the risk of immunogenicity and toxicities in patients, a potentially unique advantage over similar drugs.


 


Sugemalimab has completed a Phase I dose-escalation
study in China. During Phase 1a and 1b stages of the study, sugemalimab showed antitumor activity in multiple tumor types and was well-tolerated.


 


Currently, sugemalimab is being investigated in
a number of ongoing clinical trials. In addition to a Phase I bridging study in the U.S., the clinical programs in China include one multi-arm
Phase Ib study for several tumor types, one Phase II registrational study for lymphoma, and four Phase III registrational studies, respectively,
for stage III/IV non-small cell lung cancer, gastric cancer, and esophageal cancer. The phase III clinical trial of sugemalimab in patients
with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer has reached its primary endpoint. CStone plans to submit a new drug application to the National
Medical Products Administration of China soon.


 


About CS1003 (PD-1)


 


CS1003 is a humanized recombinant IgG4 monoclonal
antibody targeting human programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) being developed for immunotherapy of various tumors. Compared to most
of the monoclonal antibodies that bind human and monkey PD-1 (either already approved or in clinical stage), CS1003 demonstrates comparable
high binding affinities across species against human, cynomolgus monkey and mouse PD-1, and is developed to disrupt the interaction of
PD-1 with its ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2.
