trade name may be included in the trademark or trade name of any JVC Product in accordance with Applicable Laws and industry standards for the applicable territory, in which event such Party will grant the JVC a license to use such trademark or
trade name (including name, logo or similar marks) of such Party solely for the development or commercialization of the applicable JVC Product in the applicable territory subject to terms and conditions mutually agreed between such Party and the
JVC; provided, that if either Party ceases to be a Party of the JVC, unless otherwise provided for in a separate agreement, the JVC shall no longer be permitted to use such Party’s trademark or trade name (including name, logo or similar marks)

	14.	TERM AND TERMINATION 

 14.1. Term. Unless otherwise terminated earlier pursuant to
this Article 14, the term (“Term”) of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall remain in force and effect so long as there is at least one JVC Product under development or commercialization by the JVC under
this Agreement, unless earlier terminated by a Party in accordance with this Agreement. 
 14.2. Termination for Failure to Launch.
In the event the JVC fails to initiate the first commercial sale of any JVC Product under a Marketing Approval in the Territory within the timeframe set forth in the applicable Plan and Budget, either Party may terminate this Agreement with respect
to such JVC Product by immediate written notice to the other Party. For clarity, such termination shall not affect any other JVC Product under this Agreement. It is understood that the first commercial sale of the first JVC Product under a Marketing
Approval in the Territory shall occur within five (5) years after the Effective Date. 
 14.3. Termination for Convenience. 

14.3.1 Offer. Beginning on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, a Party (the “Offering Party”) may offer to
sell its entire equity interest in the registered capital of the JVC to the other Party (the “Offered Party”) by providing a written proposal referencing this Section 14.3 and setting forth in reasonable detail the financial
terms and other terms and conditions of such sale, each in accordance with Applicable Laws (the “Offer”). To the extent required by Applicable Laws, the Offering Party shall obtain a valuation of the JVC pursuant to
Section 14.5 at the Offering Party’s expense and propose the financial terms of the Offer based on such valuation. Within six (6) months of receiving such Offer, the Offered Party shall elect, by written notice to the Offering Party
(“Notice of Election”), to either: 
 (a) accept the Offering Party’s offer to purchase the Offering Party’s
entire equity interest in the registered capital of the JVC, in which event the Offered Party shall be bound to purchase, and the Offering Party shall be bound to sell, the Offering Party’s entire equity interest in the JVC pursuant to the
terms and conditions (including financial terms) set forth in the Offer, or 
 (b) sell to the Offering Party the Offered Party’s entire
equity interest in the registered capital of the JVC, in which event the Offering Party shall be bound to purchase, and the Offered Party shall be bound to sell, the Offered Party’s entire equity interest in the JVC pursuant to the terms and
conditions (including financial terms) Set forth in the Offer, provided that the financial terms shall be adjusted based on the ratio of the Ownership Interest of the Offering Party and Offered Party. By way of example, if Pfenex offers to sell its

14.3.2 Completion of Purchase. The Parties shall in good faith complete the transaction contemplated under Section 14.3.1 as soon
as practicable, but in no event later than six (6) months after the delivery of the Offered Party’s Notice of Election. The purchasing Party (the Offering Party or the Offered Party, as the case may be) shall pay the purchase price
pursuant to the

 -25- 








 
payment schedule set forth in the Offer (adjusted based on the ratio of the Ownership Interest if the Offered Party is the purchasing Party), and the other Party shall transfer all right, title
and interest to such purchasing Party certificates representing all such equity interest in the JVC, free and clear of any liens, claims, charges or encumbrances duly endorsed for transfer and together with all necessary transfer documents (provided
that the issuing Party may retain a security interest in the transferred shares until the shares are fully paid in accordance with the Offer). 

14.4. Termination for Event of Default. Each Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in the event that the other Party
experiences an Event of Default, upon providing written notice of its intent to terminate referencing this Section 14.4 to the other Party. 

14.4.1 Event of Default. An “Event of Default” shall occur if (a) a Party breaches or fails to perform in any
material respect any material obligation under this Agreement and at the end of the Cure Period therefor such breach or failure remains uncured, or (b) a Party (i) files in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any
jurisdiction a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or similar arrangement for the benefit of creditors or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of such other Party or its assets, (ii) is served with an involuntary
petition against it in any insolvency proceeding and such involuntary petition has not been stayed or dismissed within ninety (90) days of its filing, or (iii) makes an assignment of substantially all of its assets for the benefit of its
creditors (in each case of (a) or (b), such Party, the “Defaulting Party”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that any material breach by Agila of the Manufacturing Agreement shall constitute an
Event of Default by Agila under this Agreement. 
 14.4.2 Cure Period. Upon a Defaulting Party’s breach or failure to perform an
obligation under this Agreement, the other Party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) shall have the right to deliver to the Defaulting Party a notice of default (a “Notice of Default”). The Notice of Default shall set
forth the nature of the Defaulting Party’s breach or failure of performance under this Agreement and a request for the Defaulting Party to cure such breach or failure within the Cure Period. If the Defaulting Party fails to cure the breach or
failure within the Cure Period, the Non-Defaulting Party shall be entitled to exercise its Call Option as set forth in Section 14.4.3 or Put Option as set forth in Section 14.4.4. For purposes hereof, “Cure Period” means a
period commencing on the date that the Notice of Default is provided by the Non-Defaulting Party and ending (a) thirty (30) days after Notice of Default is so provided, or (b) in the case of any obligation (other than an obligation to
pay money) which cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, such longer period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days after the Notice of Default is so provided as is necessary to effect a cure of the Event of
Default, so long as the Defaulting Party diligently attempts to effect a cure throughout such period.

 14.4.3 Call Option. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Non-Defaulting Party
shall have an option to purchase the Defaulting Party’s entire equity interest in the registered capital of the JVC (the “Call Option”), and if the Non-Defaulting Party decides to exercise such Call Option at its own discretion
by providing written notice to the Defaulting Party, the Defaulting Party must agree to sell all its equity interest in the JVC (the “Call Option Sold Equity”) to the Non-Defaulting Party (or its designated party) at a value
determined pursuant to this Section 14.4.3 and shall cause its appointed Directors to vote in favor of the sale. 
 (a) If the
Non-Defaulting Party decides to exercise its Call Option, it shall, by written notice (the “Call Option Exercise Notice”), propose to the Defaulting Party a price that in the Non-Defaulting Party’s reasonable opinion is the
fair market value of the Call Option Sold Equity (the “Call Option Purchase Price”). If the Defaulting Party does not agree or does not reply within ten (10) Business Days of the Call Option Exercise Notice or it is otherwise
required by Applicable Laws to obtain an outside valuation of the fair market value of the Call Option Sold Equity, the Parties shall commence an outside process for determining the Call Option Purchase Price in accordance with Section 14.5, at
the Defaulting Party’s expense. 
 (b) Upon the receipt of the Purchase Price Certificate (as defined below) issued in accordance with
Section 14.5, the Non-Defaulting Party shall be bound (subject to any necessary approvals of its shareholders in a general meeting and any regulatory approvals) to buy and the Defaulting Party shall be bound to sell the Call Option Sold Equity
at [*] ([*]%) of the Valuation Price set out in the Purchase Price Certificate as issued in accordance with Section 14.5. 

14.4.4 Put Option. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default ,the Non-Defaulting Party shall have an option (“Put
Option”) to sell to the Defaulting Party the Non-Defaulting Party’s entire equity interest in the registered capital of the JVC (“Put Option Sold Equity”), and if the Non-Defaulting Party decides to exercise its option
at its own discretion by providing written notice to the Defaulting Party, the Defaulting Party must agree to purchase the Put Option Sold Equity at a value determined pursuant to this Section 14.4.4, and shall cause its appointed Directors to
vote in favor of the sale. 
 (a) If the Non-Defaulting Party decides to exercise its Put Option, it shall, by Written notice (the
“Put Option Exercise Notice”), propose to the Defaulting Party a price that in the Non-Defaulting Party’s reasonable opinion is the fair market value of the Put Option Sold Equity (the “Put Option Purchase
Price”). If the Defaulting Party does not agree or does not reply within ten (10) Business Days of the Put Option Exercise Notice or it is otherwise required by Applicable Laws to obtain an outside valuation of the fair market value of
the Put Option Sold Equity, the Parties shall commence an outside process for determining the Put Option Purchase Price in accordance with Section 14.5, at the Defaulting Party’s expense. 

(b) Upon receipt by the Parties of the Purchase Price Certificate issued in accordance with Section 14.5, the Non-Defaulting Party shall
be bound to sell, and the Defaulting Party shall be bound to purchase the Put Option Sold Equity at [*] percent ([*]%) of the Valuation Price set out in the Purchase Price Certificate issued in accordance with Section 14.5.

Applicable Laws (the “Appraiser”) to conduct a valuation of the fair market value of the relevant equity interest of the JVC in accordance with this Section 14.5 (the “Valuation Price”) and deliver its
valuation report to the Parties within 30 days after its appointment. In its determination of the Valuation Price, the Appraisers shall, based on the purpose of the valuation, value the equity interest by applying internationally accepted actuarial
methods for calculating the fair market value of the equity interest in a pharmaceutical company. 
 14.5.2 The Valuation Price as
determined above shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and such Valuation Price shall be certified by the Appraiser (the “Purchase Price Certificate”). Each Party shall equally bear the fees and costs arising from such
valuation (including the Appraiser’s fees). 
 14.6. Cross-termination. In the event the JDLA is terminated (not expired)
pursuant to its terms prior to the Completion Date or the Ratification Date for the first JVC Product, this Agreement shall terminate automatically. 

14.7. JVC Successor. In the event this Agreement is terminated under Section 14.3 or Section 14.4 (and the Non-Defaulting
Party has exercised the Call Option or Put Option) or the JVC is otherwise sold to a Third Party, the Parties shall fully cooperate with each other to facilitate a smooth, orderly and prompt transition of the development, manufacturing and/or
commercialization of the JVC Products to the Party purchasing the JVC or the Third Party purchasing the JVC (the “JVC Successor”), at the JVC Successor’s expense. In connection therewith, each Party shall grant the JVC
