the Licensed Patent to make, have made, use, import, offer to sell and sell Licensed Products, or otherwise use or practice the Licensed Patent, in each case, in the Nalu Field in the Licensed Territory, which includes: 



 

	 	(A)	 an Exclusive sublicense under patent application 13/734,772 of docket
S11-469 (provisional application 61/582,980); patent application 13/591,188 of docket S12-112; and patent application 12/485,654 of docket

	 	(C)	 a Co-Exclusive sublicense under patent application 61/720,827 of docket
S12-360 (PCT/US2013/067882). 


  

	3.2	 Exclusivity. Nalu acknowledges that the Stanford License is exclusive for 7 years on the Exclusively and
Co- Exclusively Licensed Patent in Section 3.1, which will be extended until the last such Licensed Patent expires if AcceleMed (itself or through a sublicensee) has completed all of the milestones in
section 6.1 of the Stanford License and is developing Licensed Product under each of the Licensed Patents or provides a plan (to be approved by Stanford, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld ) to develop Licensed Product under each of the
Licensed Patents. Accordingly, the exclusivity granted to Nalu under Section 3.1 above is limited to the interest in the Licensed Patent conveyed to AcceleMed under the Stanford License. 



 

	3.3	 Co-Exclusivity. Nalu acknowledges that at such time as any Co-Exclusive License expires or is terminated, (a) AcceleMed shall be the exclusive licensee under the relevant Licensed Patent(s), (b) AcceleMed shall promptly notify Nalu of such expiration or termination of
such Co-Exclusive License and (c) AcceleMed’s license with respect to the relevant Co-Exclusively licensed Licensed Patent(s) in Section 3.1(B) or 3.1(C)
of the Stanford License, as applicable, shall be deemed Exclusive. Accordingly, at such time as any Co-Exclusive License expires or is terminated, the applicable sublicense in Section 3.1(B) or 3.1(C)
above shall be deemed Exclusive. 



  
 Page 4 of 4 














	3.4	 Nonexclusivity. Nalu acknowledges that under the Stanford License, after the Exclusive term, if
AcceleMed’s exclusivity is not extended per section 3.2 of the Stanford License with respect to any Licensed Patent, AcceleMed’s license will be nonexclusive with respect to any such Licensed Patent until the last such Licensed Patent
expires and accordingly, that the Nalu’s sublicense under Section 3.1 will be nonexclusive until the last such Licensed Patent expires. 


  

	3.5	 Retained Rights. Nalu acknowledges that Stanford retained the right, on behalf of itself and all other non-profit research institutions, to practice and use the Licensed Patent for any non-profit purpose, including sponsored research and collaborations. Nalu acknowledges that,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, it has no right to enforce the Licensed Patent against any such institution. Nalu further acknowledges that Stanford and any such other institution have the right to publish any information
included in any Licensed Patent. 


  

	3.6	 Specific Exclusion. AcceleMed does not: 



 

	 	(A)	 grant to Nalu any other licenses, implied or otherwise, to any patents or other rights of AcceleMed other than
those rights granted under Licensed Patent, regardless of whether the patents or other rights are dominant or subordinate to any Licensed Patent, or are required to exploit any Licensed Patent; or 



 

	 	(B)	 agree to furnish to Nalu any technology or technological information other than the Licensed Patent or to
provide Nalu with any assistance. 


  

	3.7	 Maintenance of the Stanford License. AcceleMed shall comply with all of its obligations under the
Stanford License and will not terminate the Stanford License or amend the Stanford License in any manner which diminishes the rights of Nalu or increases any obligations of Nalu with respect to the Licensed Rights (“Detriment”) without the
consent of Nalu. In the event that AcceleMed amends the Stanford License to obtain more favorable terms from Stanford (e.g., negotiates a lower royalty rate or a higher third party royalty offset) AcceleMed will extend such benefits to Nalu and this
Agreement shall be amended to reflect such more favorable terms. In addition, AcceleMed will notify Nalu promptly, if AcceleMed and/or any of its Affiliates receives notice, whether or not there is a cure period, from Stanford that AcceleMed and/or
any of its Affiliates is in material breach of the Stanford License, and/or notice from Stanford which purports to terminate the Stanford License or modify the Stanford License in a manner that would cause a Detriment. AcceleMed will and will cause
its Affiliates to take prompt and commercially reasonable steps to cure any such breach. AcceleMed acknowledges that any breach of the Stanford License by AcceleMed and/or its Affiliates may result in irreparable damage to Nalu and will entitle Nalu
to seek, in addition to any other right or remedy it may be entitled to, specific performance or other equitable remedies without the posting of any bond or other security. 



 

	4	 SUBLICENSING 



  
 Page 5 of 5 














	4.1	 Permitted Sublicensing. Nalu may grant Sublicenses in the Nalu Field only during the Exclusive term.
Nalu is allowed to grant a sublicense only if Nalu is developing or selling Licensed Products at the time of the sublicensing grant. Sublicenses with any exclusivity must include diligence requirements commensurate with the diligence requirements of
Appendix A. 


  

	4.2	 Sublicense Requirements. Any Sublicense: 



 

	 	(A)	 is subject to this Agreement; 



 

	 	(B)	 will reflect that any sublicensee will not further Sublicense; 



 

	 	(C)	 will prohibit sublicensee from paying royalties to an escrow or other similar account; 



 

	 	(D)	 will expressly include the provisions of Articles 9 and 10 for the benefit of Stanford and provisions that
allow AcceleMed to comply with its obligations to Stanford under Article 8 of the Stanford License; 


  

	 	(E)	 will include the provisions of Section 4.3; and 



 

	 	(F)	 will survive the termination of this Agreement, such that all the sublicensee’s obligations to Nalu under
such Sublicense, including the payment of royalties specified in the Sublicense, will run directly to AcceleMed or its designee if this Agreement is terminated, in which event, such sublicensee will be deemed a direct licensee of AcceleMed.



  

	4.3	 Litigation by Sublicensee. Any Sublicense must include the following clauses: 



 

	 	(A)	 In the event sublicensee brings an action seeking to invalidate any Licensed Patent: 



 

	 	(1)	 sublicensee will double the royalty payment owed to AcceleMed on Net Sales of Licensed Products covered by the
challenged Licensed Patent sold by Sublicensee during the pendency of such action. Moreover, should the outcome of such action determine that any claim of a patent challenged by the sublicensee is both valid and infringed by a Licensed Product,
sublicensee will pay triple times the royalty payment owed to AcceleMed on Net Sales of Licensed Products covered by the challenged Licensed Patent sold by Sublicensee after such determination, and sublicensee will have no right to recoup any
royalties paid before or during the period challenge; 


  

	 	(2)	 any dispute regarding the validity of any Licensed Patent shall be litigated in the courts located in Santa
Clara County, and the parties agree not to challenge personal jurisdiction in that forum; 


  

	 	(3)	 sublicensee shall not pay royalties into any escrow or other similar account. 



 

	 	(B)	 Sublicensee will provide written notice to Nalu and Stanford at least three months prior to bringing an action

 Page 6 of 6 














	 	
Sublicensee will include with such written notice an identification of all prior art it believes invalidates any claim of the Licensed Patent. 


 

	4.4	 Copy of Sublicenses and Sublicensee Royalty Reports. Nalu will submit to AcceleMed a copy of each
Sublicense, any subsequent amendments and all copies of sublicensees’ royalty reports. Beginning with the first Sublicense, the Chief Financial Officer or equivalent will certify annually regarding the name and number of sublicensees.



  

	4.5	 Sharing of Sublicensing Income. Nalu will pay to Stanford a portion of all Nonroyalty Sublicensing
Consideration it receives for the sublicense of Licensed Patents, as provided below, based on the timing of the sublicensing: 


  

	 	(A)	 [***] if done within the first 18 months of License Effective Date; 



 

	 	(B)	 [***] if done after 18 months from License Effective Date and before any clinical trial on Licensed Product;



  

	 	(C)	 [***] if done while the Licensed Product is in clinical trials; and 



 

	 	(D)	 [***] if done after the Licensed Product has received FDA approval. 



 

	4.6	 Royalty-Free Sublicenses. If Nalu pays all royalties due AcceleMed from a sublicensee’s Net Sales,
Nalu may grant that sublicensee a royalty-free or non-cash: 


  

	 	(A)	 Sublicense or 


  

	 	(B)	 cross-license. 


  

	4.7	 AcceleMed will provide Nalu with prompt written notice of any required sublicenses granted under the Licensed
Patents pursuant to the Stanford License. 


  

	5	 GOVERNMENT RIGHTS 



This Agreement is subject to Title 35 Sections 200-204 of the United States Code. Among other things, these provisions
provide the United States Government with nonexclusive rights in the Licensed Patent. They also impose the obligation that Licensed Product sold or produced in the United States be “manufactured substantially in the United States” (subject
to waivers available under applicable laws). Nalu will ensure all obligations of these provisions are met. 
  

	6	 DILIGENCE 


  

	6.1	 Milestones. Nalu will, itself or through one or more sublicensees, diligently develop, manufacture, and
sell Licensed Product and diligently develop markets for Licensed Product. In addition, Nalu will, itself or through one or more sublicensees, meet the milestones shown in Appendix A, and notify AcceleMed in writing as each milestone is met.
AcceleMed agrees to grant reasonable extensions to the target dates of any applicable milestone and the subsequent milestones (without payment) if Nalu’s or its sublicensee(s)’s failure to meet the applicable milestones is due to delays
which are out of the reasonable control of Nalu (e.g., changes to the regulatory pathways, delays in regulatory review, adverse events during clinical trials and the like), provided that AcceleMed shall




  
 Page 7 of 7 














	 	
not be obligated to grant such extension for more than 2 years in aggregate and any additional request for extension will be subject to discussion by the parties. Without limiting the foregoing,
Nalu shall have a one-time right to a single six-month extension of the target date of a diligence milestone, upon payment of an extension fee in the amount of [***]
([***]) for such extension. If Nalu triggers this one extension, the due date for all subsequent milestones will also be extended by 6 months. 

  

	6.2	 Progress Report. By February 1 of each year, Nalu will submit a written annual report to AcceleMed
covering the preceding calendar year. The report will include information sufficient to enable AcceleMed to satisfy its reporting requirements under the Stanford License and for AcceleMed to ascertain progress by Nalu toward meeting this
Agreement’s diligence requirements. Each report will describe, where relevant: Nalu’s progress toward commercialization of Licensed Product, including work completed, key scientific discoveries, summary of work-in-progress, current schedule of anticipated events or milestones, market plans for introduction of Licensed Product, and significant corporate transactions involving Licensed Product.



  

	6.3	 Clinical Trial Notice. Nalu will notify AcceleMed prior to commencing any clinical trials at Stanford.



  

	7	 ROYALTIES 


  

	7.1	 Issue Royalty. Nalu will pay to AcceleMed a noncreditable, nonrefundable license issue royalty of [***]
made in 2 payments: 


  

	 	A.	 [***] upon signing this Agreement. 



 

	 	B.	 [***] due at least thirty (30) days prior to the first anniversary of the License Effective Date.



  

	7.2	 Equity Interest. As further consideration, Nalu will grant to Stanford sufficient shares of common stock
in Nalu, which, when issued, those shares will represent [***] of the common stock in Nalu on a Fully Diluted Basis. Nalu agrees to provide Stanford with the capitalization table upon which the above calculation is made. Nalu will issue [***] of all
shares granted to Stanford pursuant to this Section 7.2 and Section 7.3 directly to and in the name of the inventors to be listed with individual allocations to be provided by Stanford. 



 

	7.3	 Anti-Dilution Protection. Nalu will issue Stanford, without further consideration, any additional shares
of stock of the class issued pursuant to Section 7.2 necessary to ensure that the number of shares issued Stanford pursuant to Section 7.2 and this Section 7.3 does not represent less than the percentage shares listed under
Section 7.2 which are issued and outstanding on a Fully-Diluted Basis at any time through the completion of issuance of all shares to be issued in connection with the cumulative equity investment in Nalu from a single or group of investors
which totals [***] and at a pre-money valuation of no less than [***]. 


  

	7.4	 Section 7.4 is set forth in Appendix E of this Agreement. 



  
 Page 8 of 8 














	7.5	 Section 7.5 is set forth in Appendix E of this Agreement. 



 

	7.6	 License Maintenance Fee. Nalu will pay AcceleMed a yearly license maintenance fee as follows:



  

	 	A.	 [***]; 


  

	 	B.	 [***]. 



Yearly maintenance payments are nonrefundable, but they are creditable each year as described in Section 7.10. 

 

	7.7	 Milestone Payments. Nalu will pay AcceleMed the following milestone payments: 



 

	 	A.	 [***]; 


  

	 	B.	 [***]; 


  

	 	C.	 [***]; 


  

	 	D.	 [***]; 


  

	 	E.	 [***]; 


  

	 	F.	 [***]. 


  

	7.8	 Earned Royalty. Nalu will pay AcceleMed earned royalties (“Y percent” or “Y%”) on
Net Sales as follows: 


 Nalu will pay AcceleMed earned royalties of [***] of Net Sales. If Nalu must pay earned royalties
on Licensed Product to third parties that total more than [***] of Net Sales, the earned royalty payable to AcceleMed will be reduced by [***] for each [***] payable to third parties. For example, if Nalu is obligated to pay a total of [***] of
earned royalties on Licensed Product to third parties, the earned royalty payable to AcceleMed will be reduced by [***] of [***] or [***]. In no event will Nalu reduce earned royalties to AcceleMed to below [***]. 

Accordingly, in the foregoing scenario, the earned royalty payable to AcceleMed will be reduced to 2.0%. 

 

	7.9	 Earned Royalty if Nalu Challenges the Patent. Notwithstanding the above, should Nalu bring an action
seeking to invalidate any Licensed Patent, such a plaintiff will pay royalties to AcceleMed at the rate of [***] percent ([***]) of the Net Sales of all Licensed Products sold during the pendency of such action. Moreover, should the outcome of such
action determine that any claim of a patent challenged by the plaintiff is both valid and infringed by a Licensed Product, the plaintiff will pay royalties at the rate of [***] percent ([***]) of the Net Sales of all Licensed Products sold.



  

	7.10	 Creditable Payments. The license maintenance fee for a year may be offset against earned royalty
payments due on Net Sales occurring in that year. 


 For example: 

 

	 	(A)	 if Nalu pays AcceleMed a $10 maintenance payment for year Y, and according to Section 7.8 $15 in earned
royalties are due AcceleMed for 



  
 Page 9 of 9 














	 	
Net Sales in year Y, Nalu will only need to pay AcceleMed an additional $5 for that year’s earned royalties. 


 

	 	(B)	 if Nalu pays AcceleMed a $10 maintenance payment for year Y, and according to Section 7.8 $3 in earned
royalties are due AcceleMed for Net Sales in year Y, Nalu will not need to pay AcceleMed any earned royalty payment for that year. 


  

	7.11	 Obligation to Pay Royalties. During the term of this Agreement, a royalty is due AcceleMed under this
Agreement for Net Sales with respect to a Licensed Product on a country-by-country basis for Licensed Products sold which, without this Agreement, would infringe
Licensed Patent by the manufacture, use, import, offer for sale, or sale of Licensed Products in such countries. For convenience’s sake, the amount of that royalty is calculated using Net Sales. Nonetheless, if certain Licensed Products are
made, used, imported, or offered for sale before the date this Agreement terminates, and those Licensed Products are sold after the termination date, Nalu will pay AcceleMed an earned royalty for its exercise of rights based on the Net Sales of
those Licensed Products. 


  

	7.12	 Funded Sublicensees. If AcceleMed has granted one or more sublicenses under the Licensed Patents to any
third party(ies), then from and after such time as any third party sublicensee under the Licensed Patents has completed a Qualified Financing (each a “Funded Sublicensee”), AcceleMed shall reasonably consider apportioning the expenses
under the Stanford License between or among Nalu and such Funded Sublicensee(s). 


  

	7.13	 No Escrow. Nalu shall not pay royalties into any escrow or other similar account. 



 

	7.14	 Currency. Nalu will calculate the royalty on sales in currencies other than U.S. Dollars using the
appropriate foreign exchange rate quoted by the Bank of America (San Francisco) foreign exchange desk, on the close of business on the last banking day of each calendar quarter. Nalu will make royalty payments to AcceleMed in U.S. Dollars.



  

	7.15	 Non-U.S. Taxes. Nalu will pay all
non-U.S. taxes related to royalty payments. These payments are not deductible from any payments due to AcceleMed. 


  

	7.16	 Interest. Any payments not made when due will bear interest at the lower of (a) the Prime Rate
published in the Wall Street Journal plus 200 basis points or (b) the maximum rate permitted by law. 


  

	7.17	 Payment to Stanford. Upon AcceleMed’s written request, Nalu will make any payments owed to
AcceleMed under this Agreement directly to Stanford, on AcceleMed’s behalf. 


  

	8	 ROYALTY REPORTS, PAYMENTS, AND ACCOUNTING 



 

	8.1	 Quarterly Earned Royalty Payment and Report. Beginning with the first sale of a Licensed Product by Nalu
or a sublicensee, Nalu will submit to AcceleMed a written report (even if there are no sales) and an earned royalty payment within 20 days after the end of each calendar quarter. This report will be in the form of Appendix B and will state the
number, description, and aggregate Net Sales of 



  
 Page 10 of 10 














	 	
Licensed Product during the completed calendar quarter. The report will include an overview of the process and documents relied upon to permit AcceleMed to understand how the earned royalties are
calculated. With each report Nalu will include any earned royalty payment due AcceleMed for the completed calendar quarter (as calculated under Section 7.8). Upon AcceleMed’s written request, Nalu will provide such reports directly to
Stanford on AcceleMed’s behalf. 

  

	8.2	 No Refund. In the event that a validity or non-infringement
challenge of a Licensed Patent brought by Nalu is successful, Nalu will have no right to recoup any royalties paid before or during the period challenge. 


  

	8.3	 Termination Report. Nalu will pay to AcceleMed all applicable royalties and submit to AcceleMed a
written report within 60 days after the license terminates. Nalu will continue to submit earned royalty payments and reports to AcceleMed after the license terminates, until all Licensed Products made or imported under the license have been sold.
Upon AcceleMed’s written request, Nalu will provide such reports directly to Stanford on AcceleMed’s behalf. 


  

	8.4	 Accounting. Nalu will maintain records showing manufacture, importation, sale, and use of a Licensed
Product for 7 years from the date of sale of that Licensed Product. Records will include general-ledger records showing cash receipts and expenses, and records that include: production records, customers, invoices, serial numbers, and related
information in sufficient detail to enable AcceleMed to determine the royalties payable under this Agreement. 


  

	8.5	 Audit by AcceleMed. Subject to reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours, Nalu will
allow AcceleMed and Stanford or their respective designee(s) to examine the records maintained pursuant to Section 8.4 for a period not to exceed the three (3) years prior to the audit request to verify payments made by Nalu under this
Agreement, no more than once per each 12-month period. 


  

	8.6	 Paying for Audit. AcceleMed will pay for any audit done under Section 8.5. But if the audit reveals
an underreporting of earned royalties due AcceleMed of 5% or more for the period being audited, the audited party will pay the out-of-pocket audit costs reasonably
incurred by AcceleMed. 


  

	8.7	 Self-audit. Nalu will conduct an independent audit of sales and royalties at least every 2 years if
annual sales of Licensed Product are over $15,000,000 during each of the two preceding years. The audit will address, at a minimum, the amount of gross sales by or on behalf of Nalu during the audit period, the amount of funds owed to AcceleMed
under this Agreement, and whether the amount owed has been paid to AcceleMed and is reflected in the records of Nalu. Nalu will submit the auditor’s report promptly to AcceleMed upon completion. Nalu will pay for the entire cost of the audit.



  

	9	 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 



 

	9.1	 Negation of Warranties. Nalu acknowledges that AcceleMed was granted the rights under the Stanford
License AS IS and WITH ALL FAULTS. Neither AcceleMed nor Stanford makes any representations nor extends any warranties of 



  
 Page 11 of 11 














	 	
any kind, either express or implied. Among other things, AcceleMed and Stanford disclaim any express or implied warranty: 


 

	 	(A)	 of merchantability, of fitness for a particular purpose, 



 

	 	(B)	 of non-infringement or 



 

	 	(C)	 arising out of any course of dealing. 



 

	9.2	 No Representation of Licensed Patent. Nalu also acknowledges that neither AcceleMed nor Stanford
represents or warrants: 


  

	 	(A)	 the validity or scope of any Licensed Patent, or 



 

	 	(B)	 that the exploitation of Licensed Patent will be successful. 



 

	10	 INDEMNITY 


  

	10.1	 Indemnification. Nalu will indemnify, hold harmless, and defend all Stanford Indemnitees against any
third-party claim of any kind arising out of or related to the exercise of any rights granted Nalu under this Agreement or the breach of this Agreement by Nalu; provided that: 



 

	 	(A)	 Nalu receives prompt written notice of such claim from Stanford; 



 

	 	(B)	 Nalu shall have the first right to defend or settle any such claim and, if Nalu elects to exercise such first
right, the exclusive right to control the defense or settlement thereof. 


  

	10.2	 No Indirect Liability. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL,
EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, STATUTORY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST OR ANTICIPATED REVENUES OR PROFITS RELATING TO THE SAME), ARISING FROM ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT,
TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OR LIKELIHOOD OF SAME.    In addition, Nalu agrees that Stanford shall not be liable for any special, consequential, lost profit, expectation, punitive
or other indirect damages in connection with any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, whether grounded in tort (including negligence), strict liability, contract, or otherwise, arising from this Agreement. 



 

	10.3	 Workers’ Compensation. Nalu will comply with all statutory workers’ compensation and
employers’ liability requirements for activities that it performs under this Agreement. 


  

	10.4	 Insurance. During the term of this Agreement, Nalu will maintain Comprehensive General Liability
Insurance, including Product Liability Insurance, with a reputable and financially secure insurance carrier to cover its obligations hereunder. The insurance will provide minimum limits of liability of [***] for Nalu. All such insurance will include
all Stanford Indemnitees as additional insureds. Insurance must cover claims incurred, discovered, 



  
 Page 12 of 12 














	 	
manifested, or made during or after the expiration of this Agreement and must be placed with carriers with ratings of at least A- as rated by A.M. Best.
Within 30 days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Nalu will furnish to AcceleMed and Stanford a Certificate of Insurance evidencing primary coverage and additional insured requirements. Nalu will provide to AcceleMed and Stanford 30 days prior
written notice of cancellation or material change to this insurance coverage. Nalu will advise AcceleMed and Stanford in writing that it maintains excess liability coverage (following form) over primary insurance for at least the minimum limits set
forth above. All insurance of Nalu will be primary coverage with respect to Nalu’s obligations hereunder; insurance of Stanford and Stanford Hospitals and Clinics will be excess and noncontributory. 


 

	11	 EXPORT 



Nalu shall, and shall obligate its sublicensees hereunder to, comply with all United States laws and regulations controlling the export of licensed commodities
and technical data. (For the purpose of this paragraph, “licensed commodities” means any article, material or supply but does not include information; and “technical data” means tangible or intangible technical information that
is subject to US export regulations, including blueprints, plans, diagrams, models, formulae, tables, engineering designs and specifications, manuals and instructions.) These laws and regulations may include, but are not limited to, the Export
Administration Regulations (15 CFR 730-774), the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (22 CFR 120-130) and the various economic sanctions regulations administered
by the US Department of the Treasury (31 CFR 500600). 
 Among other things, these laws and regulations prohibit or require a license for the export or
retransfer of certain commodities and technical data to specified countries, entities and persons. Nalu hereby gives written assurance that it will comply with all United States export control laws and regulations. 

 

	12	 MARKING 



Before any Licensed Patent issues, Nalu will mark its Licensed Products with the words “Patent Pending.” Otherwise, Nalu will mark its Licensed
Products with the number of any issued Licensed Patent, to the extent required by the applicable patent marking laws. 
  

	13	 STANFORD NAMES AND MARKS 



 

	13.1	 Nalu will not use (i) Stanford’s name or other trademarks, (ii) the name or trademarks of any
organization related to Stanford, or (iii) the name of any Stanford faculty member, employee, student or volunteer without the prior written consent of Stanford. Permission may be withheld at Stanford’s sole discretion. This prohibition
includes, but is not limited to, use in press releases, advertising, marketing materials, other promotional materials, presentations, case studies, reports, websites, application or software interfaces, and other electronic media.



  

	14	 PROSECUTION AND PROTECTION OF PATENTS 



  
 Page 13 of 13 














	14.1	 Patent Prosecution. Following the Effective Date and subject to Stanford’s approval, AcceleMed or
its designee will be responsible for preparing, filing, and prosecuting broad and extensive patent claims (including any interference or reexamination actions) for Stanford’s benefit in the Licensed Territory and for maintaining all exclusively
Licensed Patents. AcceleMed or its designee (a) shall keep Nalu reasonably informed as to the status of the Licensed Patents, (b) shall consult with Nalu in a timely manner concerning (i) the scope and content of patent applications
within the Licensed Patents prior to filing such patent applications, and (ii) the content of and proposed responses to official actions of the United States Patent and Trademark Office and foreign patent offices during prosecution of such
patent applications and (c) shall follow Nalu’s reasonable requests regarding patent claims in or covering the Nalu Field; provided that Stanford will have final approval on how to proceed with any substantive actions in prosecuting the
Licensed Patents.    At AcceleMed or Stanford’s request, Nalu will provide information and assistance to AcceleMed and Stanford, as applicable, to ensure that the exclusively Licensed Patent is as extensive as possible. Nalu
agrees that Stanford is the client of record for the attorney prosecuting the exclusively Licensed Patents and agree to have Appendix C fully executed by the appropriate parties upon execution of this Agreement. 



 

	14.2	 Patent Costs. Within 30 days after receiving a statement from AcceleMed, Nalu will pay to AcceleMed:



  

	 	(A)	 $[***] at 6 months after the License Effective Date, to offset Exclusively and
Co-exclusively Licensed Patent’s patenting expenses, including any interference or reexamination matters, incurred by Stanford before the License Effective Date. The remaining balance of approximately
$[***] incurred before the License Effective Date is to be reimbursed 2 years from the License Effective Date; 


  

	 	(B)	 for all Exclusively and Co-Exclusively Licensed Patent’s patenting
expenses, including any interference or reexamination matters, incurred by AcceleMed or its designee after the License Effective Date unless such expenses are paid directly to Stanford by or on behalf of Nalu. 



 

	 	(C)	 For non-exclusive licenses, there will be no patent costs paid by Nalu.



 Nalu may elect to stop paying prosecution or maintenance expenses related to any Licensed Patent by providing AcceleMed
with sixty (60) days prior written notice of such election. Upon the expiration of such sixty (60) day period, Nalu’s payment obligations with respect to such Licensed Patent, as well as Nalu’s license under such Licensed Patent,
shall terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that AcceleMed grants a sublicense under the Licensed Patents to an Affiliate or third party, AcceleMed shall provide Nalu with prompt written notice thereof, and AcceleMed will use
reasonable efforts to allocate the prosecution and maintenance expenses related to such Licensed Patents on a pro rata basis between Nalu and such additional sublicensee(s). 
  

	14.3	 Patent Enforcement. 



  
 Page 14 of 14 














	 	(A)	 If either party, directly or through an Affiliate or sublicensee (or in the case of AcceleMed, through
Stanford), learns of any actual or possible, direct or indirect, infringement of the Licensed Patents by another person or entity by the manufacture, sale, import, use or other exploitation of a product or service in the Nalu Field (a
“Competing Product Infringement”), it shall promptly provide written notice to the other party of such Competing Product Infringement and shall promptly supply such other party with all evidence it possesses pertaining to such Competing
Product Infringement. 


  

	 	(B)	 As between Nalu and AcceleMed, Nalu (directly or through its designee) shall have the first right, but not the
obligation, to seek to abate any Competing Product Infringement or to file suit against an infringing person or entity with respect to such Competing Product Infringement (each, an “Competing Product Infringement Action”). In the event
Nalu exercises it right to initiate a Competing Product Infringement Action, it will so notify AcceleMed and AcceleMed will in turn notify Stanford in writing of its appointment of Nalu (or Nalu’s specified designee) as AcceleMed’s
designee in connection with such action. Nalu shall keep AcceleMed reasonably informed of the progress of any such Competing Product Infringement Action. AcceleMed shall cooperate fully with Nalu, including, either as required by law or at the
request of Nalu, by joining as a nominal party, cooperating with Stanford to enable Nalu (and its designee(s)) to exercise such rights) and executing such documents as may reasonably be required for such Competing Product Infringement Action, all at
the expense of Nalu. In the event that Nalu desires or is required to join Stanford as a party in a Competing Product Infringement Action, such joinder will be in accordance with the terms and conditions described in Section 14.4 of the
Stanford License. 


  

	 	(C)	 If Nalu does not initiate a Competing Product Infringement Action within 120 days of a request by Stanford to
do so (which request may be made directly to Nalu or relayed through AcceleMed), it is understood that Stanford may institute and prosecute a Competing Product Infringement Action so long as it conforms with the requirements of Section 14.6 of
the Stanford License. 


  

	 	(D)	 Any recovery (whether by settlement or otherwise) obtained as a result of a Competing Product Infringement
Action shall be shared as follows: 


 (1) AcceleMed, if joined or cooperating in such action, shall first
be entitled to recover its out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with such action; and 

(2) any remainder of recovery shall be retained by Nalu. 

 

	 	(E)	 The non-controlling party shall, at the reasonable request and expense
of the party controlling any enforcement or declaratory action under this Section 14.3, fully cooperate with the controlling party, including making available relevant records, papers, information, samples, specimens, and




  
 Page 15 of 15 














	 	
the like. The party controlling the enforcement shall keep the non-controlling party reasonably informed of the progress of such action, and the non-controlling party shall have the right to participate in such enforcement or declaratory action with counsel of its own choice at its own expense. 


 

	14.4	 Subordination to Stanford License. The obligations of AcceleMed and the rights of Nalu under Sections
14.1 and 14.3 shall be subject to and limited by terms of Article 14 of the Stanford License. To the extent AcceleMed has the right to do so under the terms of Article 14 of the Stanford License, AcceleMed shall cooperate with Nalu to prosecute and
enforce such Licensed Patents in the same manner as set forth in Sections 14.1 and 14.3 above. Without limiting the foregoing, AcceleMed agrees to take such steps as are reasonably requested by Nalu to extend to Nalu the rights and benefits provided
to AcceleMed under Article 14 of the Stanford License, including by taking reasonable measures to ensure that Stanford will diligently pursue any action initiated by Stanford and keeping Nalu reasonably apprised of all developments in the suit,
seeking Nalu’s input and approval on any substantive submissions or positions taken in the litigation regarding the scope, validity and enforceability of a Licensed Patent, ensuring that Stanford does not prosecute, settle or otherwise
compromise any such suit in a manner that adversely affects Nalu’s interests without Nalu’s prior written consent, and otherwise enabling Nalu to exercise AcceleMed’s rights under Article 14 of the Stanford License for the benefit of
Nalu hereunder. 


  

	15	 TERMINATION 


  

	15.1	 Termination by Nalu. Nalu may terminate this Agreement by giving AcceleMed written notice at least 30
days in advance of the effective date of termination selected by Nalu. 


  

	15.2	 Termination by AcceleMed. 



 

	 	(A)	 AcceleMed may also terminate this Agreement if Nalu: 



 

	 	(1)	 misses a milestone described in Appendix A, subject to Nalu’s right to extend the target timeline pursuant
to Section 6.1; 


  

	 	(2)	 is materially delinquent on any report or payment; 



 

	 	(3)	 is not using commercially reasonable efforts in diligently developing and commercializing Licensed Product;



  

	 	(4)	 is in material breach of any provision; or 



 

	 	(5)	 provides any materially false report. 



 

	 	(6)	 Termination under this Section 15.2 will take effect 60 days after written notice by AcceleMed unless Nalu
remedies the problem in that 60-day period. 


  

	 	(B)	 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any of the circumstances listed in clauses (A)(2)-(5) above is
due to the actions or inactions of an individual sublicensee, (1) AcceleMed shall not have the right to terminate 



  
 Page 16 of 16 














	 	
this Agreement if Nalu promptly terminates the Sublicense with such sublicensee and (2) in the event that Nalu is unable or unwilling to terminate such Sublicense, AcceleMed shall have the
right to terminate this Agreement solely with respect to the field of use granted to the sublicensee that caused the default, and such termination of a field of exclusive or nonexclusive Licensed Patent is not converted into a nonexclusive license
as described in Section 3.4. 

  

	 	(C)	 If Nalu disputes in good faith an alleged material breach within the
60-day cure period specified in this Section 15.2, this Agreement shall not terminate unless an arbitrator determines that this Agreement was materially breached, and Nalu fails to cure such breach within
60 days after such determination. 


  

	15.3	 Surviving Provisions. Surviving any termination or expiration are: 



 

	 	(A)	 Nalu’s obligation to pay royalties accrued; 



 

	 	(B)	 any claim of Nalu or AcceleMed, accrued or to accrue, because of any breach or default by the other party;



  

	 	(C)	 the provisions of Articles 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 9, 10, 13, 15.3, 17 and 19 are intended to survive; and



  

	 	(D)	 any sublicenses granted hereunder (in the manner provided in Section 4.3(F)). 



 

	16	 ASSIGNMENT 


  

	16.1	 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the
other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may, without such consent, assign this Agreement and its rights, obligations and interests, in whole or in part, to any of its affiliates or to a third party that succeeds to all or
substantially all of its business or assets relating to this Agreement whether by sale, merger, operation of law or otherwise. For clarity, each party may exercise its rights and/or perform its obligations under this Agreement through one or more of
its affiliates. 


  

	16.2	 Any Other Assignment. Any other attempt to assign this Agreement by a party without the prior written
consent of the other party is null and void. 


  

	16.3	 After the Assignment. Upon a permitted assignment of this Agreement pursuant to Article 16, the
assigning party will be released of liability under this Agreement and the any reference to the assigning party (“AcceleMed” or “Nalu”, as applicable) in this Agreement will mean the assignee. 



 

	17	 DISPUTE RESOLUTION 



 

	17.1	 Dispute Resolution by Arbitration. Subject to Section 17.2, the parties agree that any dispute or
controversy arising out of, in relation to, or in connection with this Agreement, or the making, interpretation, construction, performance or breach hereof, shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in San Francisco,




  
 Page 17 of 17 














	 	
California under the then current rules of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (JAMS) by one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with such rules. The arbitrator may grant
injunctive or other relief in such dispute or controversy. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court of competent
jurisdiction. The parties agree that, any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, they will not request and the arbitrator shall have no authority to award, punitive or exemplary damages against either party. The costs of the arbitration,
including administrative and arbitrator’s fees, shall be shared equally by the parties. Each party shall bear the cost of its own attorneys’ fees and expert witness fees. Nothing in this Section 17.1 shall preclude either party from
seeking interim or provisional relief in the form of a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim relief concerning a dispute prior to or during an arbitration pursuant to this Section 17.1 necessary to protect the
interests of such Party. 

  

	17.2	 Patent Validity. Any dispute regarding the validity of any Licensed Patent shall be litigated in the
courts located in Santa Clara County, California, and the parties agree not to challenge personal jurisdiction in that forum. 


  

	18	 NOTICES 


  

	18.1	 Legal Action. Nalu will provide written notice to AcceleMed and Stanford at least three months prior to
bringing an action seeking to invalidate any Licensed Patent or a declaration of non-infringement. Nalu will include with such written notice an identification of all prior art it believes invalidates any
claim of the Licensed Patent. 


  

	18.2	 All Notices. Any notice, request, delivery, approval or consent required or permitted to be given under
this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given if delivered in person, transmitted by facsimile (receipt verified) or by express courier service (signature required) or five days after it was sent by
registered letter, return receipt requested (or its equivalent), provided that no postal strike or other disruption is then in effect or comes into effect within two days after such mailing, to the party to which it is directed at its address or

	19	 MISCELLANEOUS 



 

	19.1	 Confidentiality. AcceleMed shall maintain the terms of this Agreement as well as the reports and any
information provided by Nalu to AcceleMed hereunder, including information provided pursuant to Sections 4.4, 6.2, 7.6, 8.1, 8.3, 8.5 and 8.7 of this Agreement, in confidence and not disclose such information or reports to any third party, except as
required by law. AcceleMed’s obligation of confidentiality hereunder shall be fulfilled by using at least the same degree of care with Nalu’s confidential information as AcceleMed uses to protect its own confidential information.



  

	19.2	 Cooperation With Respect to Stanford License. AcceleMed agrees to cooperate with Nalu as reasonably
requested in writing by Nalu, to extend and make available to Nalu any rights and/or benefits available under the Stanford License, to the extent applicable to the rights granted to Nalu hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, AcceleMed shall
keep Nalu informed as to AcceleMed’ communications with Stanford that may affect Nalu’s rights or obligations hereunder, and to the extent that Nalu obtains Stanford’s agreement to modify, amend, or otherwise alter or waive any
performance, obligation, or provision of the Stanford License as it applies to Nalu, AcceleMed agrees to take such actions and execute such documents as Nalu may reasonably request in writing to effect the same. 



 

	19.3	 Choice of Law. This agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with,
the laws of the State of California, United States of America, without reference to principles of conflicts of law. 


  

	19.4	 Force Majeure. In the event either Party hereto is prevented from or delayed in the performance of any
of its obligations hereunder by reason of acts of God, war, strikes, riots, storms, fires, earthquake, power shortage or failure, failure of the transportation system, or any other cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of the Party
(“Force Majeure Event”), the Party so prevented or delayed shall be excused from the performance of any such obligation during a period that is reasonable in light of the Force Majeure Event, but no less than the duration of the Force
Majeure Event itself. 


  

	19.5	 No Waiver. A waiver, express or implied, by either AcceleMed or Nalu of any right under this Agreement
or of any failure to perform or breach hereof by the other Party hereto shall not constitute or be deemed to be a waiver of any other 



  
 Page 20 of 20 














	 	
right hereunder or of any other failure to perform or breach hereof by such other Party, whether of a similar or dissimilar nature thereto. 


 

	19.6	 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be found by a court to be void, invalid or
unenforceable, the same shall be reformed to comply with applicable law or stricken if not so conformable, so as not to affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement, and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect. 


  

	19.7	 Interpretation. All headings are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect its
meaning or interpretation. 


  

	19.8	 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior and contemporaneous negotiations, representations, agreements, and understandings, written or oral, that the parties may have reached with respect to the subject matter
hereof. No agreements altering or supplementing the terms hereof may be made except by means of a written document signed by the duly authorized representatives of each of the parties hereto. 



 

	19.9	 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original,
but both of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed through electronic (including .pdf) or facsimile transmitted signature.
