 7.5. Milestone Event Payments. Schering-Plough shall make the non-refundable payments
to AVEO set forth below not later than thirty (30) days after the date on which the corresponding milestone event is first achieved: 
  

							
	 Milestone Event
	  	Payment
	 (a)
	  	 [**]
	  		  	$[**]
	 (b)

	  		  	$[**]
	 (e)
	  	 [**]

	 (f)
	  	 [**]
	  		  	$[**]
	 (g)
	  	 [**]
	  		  	$[**]
	 (h)
	  	 [**]
	  		  	$[**]
	 (i)
	  	 [**]
	  		  	$[**]

	 (k)
	  	 [**]
	  		  	$[**]
	 (l)
	  	 [**]
	  		  	$[**]

 (m) The milestone payments set forth in Sections 7.5(a), (b), (c),
(d), (e) and (f) shall apply only to the first achievement of the applicable milestone event by the first Licensed Product to achieve such milestone. The milestone payments set forth in Sections 7.5(g), (h), (i), (j), (k) and
(l) (the “Commercial Milestones”) shall be payable by Schering-Plough for up to, but not more than, a total of [**] and/or Other Indications in any combination; provided that the corresponding milestone payments
for such Commercial Milestones shall be [**] percent ([**]%) of the amounts set forth in Sections 7.5(g), (h), (i), (j), (k) and (l) (as applicable) for each Indication approved after the first approved [**] and/or the first approved Other
Indication (as the case may be). 
  

 -27- 








 (n) If any milestone set forth in Section 7.5(a) (the
“Preclinical Milestone”), Sections 7.5(b), (c), or (d) (the “Clinical Milestones”) or in Sections 7.5(e) or (f) (the “Regulatory Milestones”) is achieved with respect to a Licensed Product
prior to the achievement of an earlier Preclinical Milestone, Clinical Milestone or Regulatory Milestone (as the case may be) for such Licensed Product, then all milestone payments due and payable for the earlier Preclinical Milestone or Clinical
Milestone (as the case may be) shall be due and payable simultaneously with the payment for achievement of the later milestone event. In the event a Pivotal Trial is deemed to be a [**], then the milestone set forth in Section 7.5(d) shall only
be due when the trial progresses to the [**]. In the event of acceptance of [**], and the receipt of [**], milestones paid for acceptance of the [**] shall only be made once for such Indication. For purposes of clarity, if, with respect to any
Licensed Product for an Indication, Schering-Plough initiates a [**] and upon completion of such [**] Schering-Plough files for [**], and subsequently receives such accelerated [**], then (i) Schering-Plough shall be obligated to pay the
milestone under Section 7.5(e) or (f) (as applicable) upon the filing for [**], if such milestone (e) or (f) has not previously been paid for an Indication, (ii) Schering-Plough shall pay the milestone under
Section 7.5(g) or 7.5(j) upon receipt of such [**], (iii) Schering-Plough shall pay the milestone set forth in Section 7.5(d) at such time as a [**] is initiated, it being understood that the initiation of such [**] is likely to occur
(and Schering-Plough shall initiate such [**]) after the receipt of [**], and (iv) Schering-Plough shall not be obligated to pay for a second time the milestone set forth in Section 7.5(g) or 7.5(j) upon receipt of [**]. 
 (o) If Development of any Licensed Product ceases (a “Failed Licensed Product”), and Development of another
Licensed Product (a “Back-Up Product”) subsequently commences or continues, then any of the Preclinical Milestone, Clinical Milestone or Regulatory Milestone payments previously made by Schering-Plough in connection with such Failed
Licensed Product shall be fully credited against any subsequent or repeated achievement of such milestone by the Back-Up Product. 
 (p) In addition, for each Licensed Product, on a one-time basis in each of the United States, the EU and Japan, Schering-Plough will pay AVEO an additional [**] percent ([**]%) of the applicable
Commercial Milestone amounts set forth in Sections 7.5 (g) or (j), (h) or (k), and (i) or (l) upon Regulatory Approval of the first Indication in such country or territory where such Regulatory Approval for such Indication
includes in the labeling a claim for the identification of a targeted patient population and where such label claim is also the subject of a Valid Claim of an AVEO Patent Right in such country or territory. For the avoidance of doubt, for each
Licensed Product, such amounts shall only be paid once for Sections 7.5(g) or (j), once for Sections 7.5(h) or (k) and once for Sections 7.5(i) or (l). 
 (q) Schering-Plough shall make the following one-time sales milestone payments to AVEO the first time cumulative annual
worldwide Net Sales for a Licensed Product reach the specified level: 
  

			
	 Annual Worldwide Net Sales
	  	 Milestone Payment

	 [**]
	  	[**]

 7.6. Licensed Product Royalties. 
 (a) Schering-Plough shall pay to AVEO royalties on Net Sales of Licensed Products in the Territory as provided in
Section 7.6(b) as follows: 
  

				
	 Calendar Year Net Sales of a Licensed Product
	  	Royalty Rate	 
	 Less than or equal to $[**]
	  	[**]	% 
	 Greater than $[**] and less than or equal to $[**]
	  	[**]	% 
	 Greater than $[**] and less than or equal to $[**]
	  	[**]	% 
	 Greater than $[**] and less than or equal to $[**]
	  	[**]	% 
	 Greater than $[**]
	  	[**]	% 

 (b) Applicability of Royalty Rates to Net Sales in the
Territory. Royalties under this Section 7.6 on aggregate Net Sales of any Licensed Product in the Territory in a Calendar Year shall be paid at the rate applicable to the portion of Net Sales within each of the Net Sales levels during such
Calendar Year. For example, if, during a Calendar Year, Net Sales of a particular Licensed Product were equal to $[**], then the royalties payable by Schering-Plough would be calculated by adding (i) the royalties with respect to the first
$[**]. 
 (c) Royalty Term and Adjustments. Schering-Plough’s royalty obligations to AVEO under this
Section 7.6 shall commence on a country-by-country and Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis on the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product and shall expire on a country-by-country basis and Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product
basis on the later of: (i) the expiration of the last Valid Claim (that is not a patent claim to a Biomarker) of the AVEO Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights Covering such Licensed Product in such country, or (ii) the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the date of the First Commercial Sale by Schering-Plough or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees to a non-Sublicensee Third Party of such Licensed Product in such country (the “Royalty Term”). The
foregoing provisions of this Section 7.6(c) notwithstanding, the royalties payable with respect to Net Sales of a Licensed Product shall be reduced to [**] percent ([**]%) of the amounts otherwise payable pursuant to Section 7.6(a) during
any portion of the Royalty Term when there is no Valid Claim (that is not a patent claim to a Biomarker) of the AVEO Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights Covering such Licensed Product in such country; provided that such reduction
shall not apply if the Licensed Product is entitled to Marketing Exclusivity in such country and there are no other products on the market in such country that contain substantially the same active ingredient as that contained in the Licensed
Product. 
  

 -29- 








 (d) Third Party Royalties. If Schering-Plough reasonably determines
that, in order to Commercialize a Licensed Product and avoid infringement of any patent not licensed hereunder, it is necessary or advisable to obtain a license from a Third Party and to pay a royalty or other payments under such patent
(“Third Party Patent Licenses”), [**] percent ([**]%) of any royalties or other payments paid under Third Party Patent Licenses by Schering-Plough, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, shall be creditable against royalties payable to
AVEO hereunder. In addition, Schering-Plough shall be responsible for all payments required under the AVEO Third Party Agreements; provided that [**] percent ([**]%) of any royalties paid by Schering-Plough pursuant to any of the AVEO
Third Party Agreements shall be creditable against royalties on the Net Sales of Licensed Products payable to AVEO hereunder. In no event shall all such credits available under this Section 7.6(d), in the aggregate, cause the royalties paid to
AVEO for any particular Calendar Quarter to be reduced by more than [**] percent ([**]%) of the royalties otherwise payable on Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country; provided that any reduction hereunder, or portion
thereof, that is rendered not usable pursuant to the immediately preceding proviso may be carried forward for use in future Calendar Quarters. 
 7.7. Diagnostic Licensed Products. 
 (a) Schering-Plough
Licenses Third Party. In the event that Schering-Plough licenses a Third Party to Commercialize a Diagnostic Licensed Product, Schering-Plough shall pay to AVEO royalties on the proceeds of all Diagnostic Licensed Product Revenues in the
Territory received by Schering-Plough for such a license based on the royalty table set forth in Section 7.6(a), with such Diagnostic Licensed Product Revenues being deemed to be Net Sales. Such royalties shall be payable (a) with respect
to royalties received by Schering-Plough, its Affiliates or Sublicensees for the period set forth in Section 7.6(c), and any such royalties shall be subject to, where applicable, reductions set forth in the second sentence of
Section 7.6(c); and (b) with respect to all other amounts received by Schering-Plough or any of its Affiliates from any Third Party (including a Sublicensee) in connection with the sale or other disposition of Diagnostic Licensed Products
or rights relating thereto, for so long as Schering-Plough receives such amounts. 
 (b) Schering-Plough
Commercializes. In the event that Schering-Plough or an Affiliate Commercializes a Diagnostic Licensed Product, it shall pay AVEO, on a country-by-country basis, either (i) a royalty of [**] percent ([**]%) on the Net Sales of such
Diagnostic Licensed Product if it is Covered by a Valid Claim of an AVEO Patent Right or a Joint Patent Right, for the life of such Patent Right, or (ii) if there is no such Patent Right or such Patent Right expires prior to the ten
(10) year anniversary of the First Commercial Sale of such Diagnostic Product, a royalty of [**] percent ([**]%) on the Net Sales of such Diagnostic Product for ten (10) years from the First Commercial Sale of such Diagnostic Licensed
Product. 
 (c) As used in this Section 7.7, “Diagnostic Licensed Product Revenues” means
(i) the Net Sales of all Diagnostic Licensed Products by Schering-Plough, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, together with (ii) all other amounts received by Schering-Plough or any of its Affiliates from any Third Party (including a
Sublicensee) in connection with the sale or other disposition of Diagnostic Licensed Products or rights relating thereto. Diagnostic Licensed Product Revenue includes upfront payments and milestone payments paid directly or indirectly to
Schering-Plough (or any of its Affiliates) from (or on behalf of) any Sublicensees (and/or sub-Sublicensees) for Diagnostic Licensed Products. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Diagnostic Licensed Product Revenue

  

 -30- 








 
shall exclude (x) all amounts paid to Schering-Plough as a fair market value equity investment in Schering-Plough (whether in the form of stock purchase, options, warrants or other forms);
and (y) research and development funding for activities directly in furtherance of Diagnostic Licensed Product clinical, regulatory and manufacturing process development in order ultimately to seek Regulatory Approval therefor (including
pre-clinical studies to support the filing of an IND and clinical studies). 
 7.8. Veterinary Licensed Products. Upon
the earlier of (i) any decision by Schering-Plough to sublicense rights to develop, manufacture and/or commercialize any Veterinary Licensed Product, or (ii) the first decision by Schering-Plough to develop a Veterinary Licensed Product
(the “Veterinary Licensed Product Decision Date”), Schering-Plough and AVEO shall negotiate in good faith the financial terms and conditions for Veterinary Licensed Products, including royalties on the net sales of such Veterinary
Licensed Product, milestones and other customary payments to AVEO (collectively, the “Veterinary Licensed Product Financial Terms”). The Veterinary Licensed Product Financial Terms shall be commercially reasonable and consistent
with then-current industry standards, and shall fairly reflect the Parties’ relative contributions to the value of the particular Veterinary Licensed Product. 
 7.9. Royalty Reports; Payments. Within forty-five (45) days after the end of each Calendar Quarter during which there are Net Sales from the sale of a Licensed Product and/or a Diagnostic
Licensed Product by Schering-Plough or an Affiliate giving rise to a payment obligation under Section 7.6 or 7.7, Schering-Plough shall submit to AVEO a report identifying its Net Sales for each Licensed Product or Diagnostic Licensed Product,
in each case for each country for such Calendar Quarter, and the royalties and other amounts payable to AVEO pursuant to Sections 7.6 and 7.7. Concurrently with each such report, Schering-Plough shall pay to AVEO all amounts payable by it under
Sections 7.6 and 7.7. 
 7.10. Books and Records; Audit Rights. 
 (a) Schering-Plough shall keep complete and accurate records of the underlying revenue and expense data relating to the
calculations of Net Sales and payments required by Sections 7.5, 7.6, 7.7 and 7.8. AVEO shall have the right, once annually at its own expense, to have an independent, certified public accounting firm, selected by AVEO and reasonably acceptable to
Schering-Plough, review any such records of Schering-Plough in the location(s) where such records are maintained by Schering-Plough upon reasonable notice (which shall be no less than fourteen (14) days’ prior notice) and during regular
business hours and under obligations of strict confidence, for the sole purpose of verifying the basis and accuracy of payments made under Sections 7.5, 7.6, 7.7 and 7.8 within the thirty-six (36) month period preceding the date of the request
for review. Schering-Plough shall receive a copy of each such report concurrently with receipt by AVEO. Should such inspection lead to the discovery of a discrepancy to AVEO’s detriment, Schering-Plough shall pay within thirty (30) days
after its receipt from the accounting firm of the certificate any undisputed amount of the discrepancy. AVEO shall pay the full cost of the review unless the underpayment of royalties is greater than five percent (5%) of the amount due for the
entire period being examined, in which case Schering-Plough shall pay the reasonable cost charged by such accounting firm for such review. Any overpayment of royalties by Schering-Plough revealed by an examination shall be paid by AVEO within thirty
(30) days. 
  

 -31- 








 (b) AVEO shall keep complete and accurate records of its reimbursable
expenses and payments required by Sections 7.3 and 7.4. Schering-Plough shall have the right, once annually at its own expense, to have an independent, certified public accounting firm, selected by Schering-Plough and reasonably acceptable to AVEO,
review any such records of AVEO in the location(s) where such records are maintained by AVEO upon reasonable notice (which shall be no less than fourteen (14) days’ prior notice) and during regular business hours and under obligations of
strict confidence, for the sole purpose of verifying the basis and accuracy of its reimbursable expenses and payments received or made under Sections 7.3 and 7.4 within the thirty-six (36) month period preceding the date of the request for
review. AVEO shall receive a copy of each such report concurrently with receipt by Schering-Plough. Should such inspection lead to the discovery of a discrepancy to Schering-Plough’s detriment, AVEO shall pay within thirty (30) days after
its receipt from the accounting firm of the certificate any undisputed amount of the discrepancy. Schering-Plough shall pay the full cost of the review unless the underpayment of royalties is greater than five percent (5%) of the amount due for
the entire period being examined, in which case AVEO shall pay the reasonable cost charged by such accounting firm for such review. Any overpayment of royalties by AVEO revealed by an examination shall be paid by Schering-Plough within thirty
(30) days. 
 7.11. Taxes. AVEO shall pay any and all taxes levied on account of all payments it receives under this
Agreement. If laws or regulations require that taxes be withheld, Schering-Plough will (a) deduct those taxes from the remittable payment, (b) timely pay the taxes to the proper taxing authority, and (c) send proof of payment to AVEO
within thirty (30) days after receipt of confirmation of payment from the relevant taxing authority. Schering-Plough will reasonably cooperate with AVEO to obtain the benefit of any applicable tax law or treaty, including the pursuit of any
refund or credit of such tax to AVEO. 
 7.12. United States Dollars. All dollar ($) amounts specified in this
Agreement are United States dollar amounts. 
 7.13. Payment Method and Currency Conversion. All payments to be made by
Schering-Plough to AVEO shall be in immediately available funds via either a bank wire transfer, an ACH (automated clearing house) mechanism, or any other means of electronic funds transfer, at Schering-Plough’s election, to a bank account
designated by AVEO. For the purposes of determining the amount of any royalties due for the relevant Calendar Quarter under Section 7.6, the amount of Net Sales in any foreign currency shall be converted into United States dollars in a manner
consistent with Schering-Plough’s normal practices used to prepare its audited financial reports; provided that such practices use a widely accepted source of published exchange rates. 
 7.14. Blocked Payments. If by reason of applicable Laws in any country in the Territory, it becomes impossible or illegal for
Schering-Plough or its Affiliates or Sublicensees to transfer, or have transferred on its behalf, milestones, royalties or other payments to AVEO, Schering-Plough shall promptly notify AVEO of the conditions preventing such transfer and such
royalties or other

  

 -32- 








 
payments shall be deposited in local currency in the relevant country to the credit of AVEO in a recognized banking institution designated by AVEO or, if none is designated by AVEO within a
period of thirty (30) days, in a recognized banking institution selected by Schering-Plough or its Affiliate or Sublicensee, as the case may be, and identified in a notice given to AVEO. If so deposited in a foreign country, Schering-Plough
shall provide, or cause its Affiliate or Sublicensee to provide, reasonable cooperation to AVEO so as to allow AVEO to assume control over such deposit as promptly as practicable. 
 7.15. Late Payments. If a Party shall fail to make a timely payment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, interest shall accrue on
the past due amount as follows: 
 (a) for amounts sixty (60) or fewer days past due, the rate applied shall
be the six (6) month London Inter-Bank Offering Rate (“LIBOR”) as of the due date, as quoted by the British Banker’s Association, computed for the actual number of days the payment was past due; and 
 (b) for amounts greater than sixty (60) days past due, the rate applied shall be [**] percent ([**]%) above the rate of
the six (6) month LIBOR as of the due date, computed for the actual number of days the payment was past due. 
 7.16.
Inter-Company Sales. Sales between or among Schering-Plough, its Affiliates and Sublicensees shall not be subject to royalties under Section 7.6; royalties shall only be calculated upon Net Sales to a Third Party that is not a
Sublicensee. Schering-Plough shall be responsible for accounting for and paying milestone payments and royalties on Net Sales by its Affiliates and Sublicensees. 
 ARTICLE VIII. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNERSHIP, 
 PROTECTION AND
RELATED MATTERS 
 8.1. Ownership of Inventions. 
 (a) Sole Inventions. Each Party shall exclusively own all Inventions made solely by such Party, its employees, agents

 -35- 








 (d) Invoices. Each Party shall promptly invoice the other Party for
any costs and expenses to be paid by a Party pursuant to this Section 8.2. Such invoice shall contain all necessary documentation for the out-of-pocket costs and expenses and shall be sent to the responsible paying Party no later than ninety
(90) days after the invoicing Party receives an invoice for such costs and expenses. Schering-Plough shall not be obliged to pay any such invoices if received after such ninety (90) day period. Reasonably documented and undisputed invoices
shall be paid within thirty (30) days of receipt. 
 8.3. Third Party Infringement. 
 (a) Notice. Each Party shall promptly report in writing to the other Party during the Term any known or suspected
(i) infringement of any of the AVEO Patent Rights exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough, Program Patent Rights exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough or Joint Patent Rights exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough, or (ii) unauthorized
use or misappropriation of any of the AVEO Know-How, Program Know-How, or Know-How in Joint Inventions exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough (an “Infringement Claim”) of which such Party becomes aware, and shall provide the other
Party with all available evidence supporting such known or suspected infringement or unauthorized use. 
 (b)
Initial Right to Enforce. Subject to Section 8.3(c) and the terms of the AVEO Third Party Agreements, Schering-Plough shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action that it
believes is reasonably required to protect (i.e., prevent or abate actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of) or otherwise enforce the AVEO Intellectual Property (excluding AVEO Background Patent Rights), the Program Patent Rights, or
the Joint Patent Rights that relate to a Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory and that are exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough; provided however that Schering-Plough shall not initiate a lawsuit or take other enforcement
action without first consulting with AVEO. Any suit by Schering-Plough shall be either in the name of AVEO or its Affiliate, the name of Schering-Plough or its Affiliate, or jointly by Schering-Plough, AVEO and their respective Affiliates, as may be
required by the Law of the forum. For this purpose, AVEO shall execute such legal papers and cooperate in the prosecution of such suit as may be reasonably requested by Schering-Plough; provided that Schering-Plough shall promptly
reimburse all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) actually incurred by AVEO in connection with such cooperation. 
 (c) Step-In Right. If Schering-Plough does not initiate a suit or take other appropriate action that it has the initial right to initiate or take pursuant to Section 8.3(b), then AVEO may, in
its discretion, provide Schering-Plough with notice of AVEO’s intent to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action. If AVEO provides such notice and Schering-Plough does not initiate a suit or take such other appropriate action within
thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice from AVEO, then AVEO shall have the right to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action that it believes is reasonably required to protect the AVEO Intellectual Property or the Joint Patent
Rights; provided however AVEO shall not initiate a lawsuit or take other enforcement action without first consulting with Schering-Plough. Any suit by AVEO shall be either in the name of AVEO or its Affiliate, the name of
Schering-Plough or its Affiliate, or jointly by Schering-Plough, AVEO and their respective Affiliates, as may be required by the Law of the forum. For this purpose, Schering-Plough shall execute such legal papers and cooperate in the prosecution of
such suit as may be reasonably requested by AVEO; provided that AVEO shall promptly reimburse all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) actually incurred by Schering-Plough in connection with such
cooperation.

 (d) Conduct of Certain Actions; Costs. The Party initiating suit
shall have the sole and exclusive right to select counsel for any suit initiated by it pursuant to Section 8.3(b) or 8.3(c). The initiating Party shall assume and pay all of its own out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with any litigation
or proceedings initiated by it pursuant to Sections 8.3(b) and 8.3(c), including the fees and expenses of the counsel selected by it. The other Party shall have the right to participate and be represented in any such suit by its own counsel at its
own expense. 
 (e) Recoveries. In the event Schering-Plough assumes control over enforcing any
Infringement Claim, AVEO shall be entitled to receive [**] percent ([**]%) of any damages (including enhanced (treble) damages), settlements, accounts of profits, or other financial compensation recovered by Schering-Plough from a Third Party based
upon any such Infringement Claim, after deducting Schering-Plough’s actual out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred in pursuing such Infringement Claim, and Schering-Plough may retain the balance. In the
event AVEO assumes control over enforcing an Infringement Claim, Schering-Plough shall be entitled to receive [**] percent ([**]%) of any damages, settlements, accounts of profits, or other financial compensation recovered from a Third Party based
upon any such Infringement Claim after deducting AVEO’s actual out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred in pursuing such Infringement Claim, and AVEO may retain the balance. 
 8.4. Patent Invalidity Claim. Each of the Parties shall promptly notify the other in the event of any legal or administrative action
by any Third Party against a Program Patent Right exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough, Joint Patent Right exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough or AVEO Patent Right exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough of which it becomes aware, including
any opposition, nullity, revocation, reexamination or compulsory license proceeding. 
 (a) In the case of the
Joint Patent Rights exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough or Program Patent Rights exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough, Schering-Plough shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to defend against any such action and the costs of any
such defense shall be at Schering-Plough’s expense. Each Party at the request of the other Party, agrees to cooperate reasonably with the other Party; provided that Schering-Plough shall promptly reimburse all out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) actually incurred by AVEO in connection with such cooperation. If Schering-Plough does not defend against any such action involving such Patent Right, then AVEO shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to defend such action and any such defense shall be at AVEO’s expense. If required by Law, Schering-Plough, upon request of AVEO, agrees to join in any such action and to cooperate reasonably with AVEO; provided
that AVEO shall promptly reimburse all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) actually incurred by Schering-Plough in connection with such cooperation. 
  

 -37- 








 (b) In the case of AVEO Patent Rights solely owned by or exclusively
licensed to AVEO that are exclusively licensed to Schering-Plough, AVEO shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to defend against any such action and the costs of any such defense shall be at AVEO’s expense. Each Party at the
request of the other Party, agrees to cooperate reasonably with the other Party; provided that AVEO shall promptly reimburse all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) actually incurred by
Schering-Plough in connection with such cooperation. If AVEO does not defend against any such action involving such AVEO Patent Right, then Schering-Plough shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend such action and any such defense
shall be at Schering-Plough’s expense. AVEO, upon request of Schering-Plough, agrees to join in any such action and to cooperate reasonably with Schering-Plough; provided that Schering-Plough shall promptly reimburse all
out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) actually incurred by AVEO in connection with such cooperation. 
 8.5. Patent Marking. Schering-Plough shall comply with the patent marking statutes in each country in which the Licensed Product or Other Licensed Product is sold by Schering-Plough, its Affiliates and/or its Sublicensees.

 8.6. Notice of Certification under Drug Price Competition and Patent Restoration Act. If a Party becomes aware of any
certification filed pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 355(b)(2)(A) or 355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV), or any notice under any future analogous provisions of United States Law relating to regulation or approval of biological products (or any amendment or successor
statute thereto) claiming that any AVEO Patent Rights Covering a Licensed Product in the Field, are invalid, or that infringement will not arise from the manufacture, use, import or sale of a product by a Third Party (a “Paragraph IV
Certification”), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing within five (5) Business Days after its receipt thereof. 
 8.7. Control of Response. Schering-Plough shall have the right, but not the obligation, to initiate patent infringement litigation in response to such Paragraph IV Certification, at its own
expense. If Schering-Plough elects not to initiate or maintain such litigation, Schering-Plough shall notify AVEO as soon as practicable but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days before the first action required to defend against such
Paragraph IV Certification so that AVEO may, initiate or assume sole control over such litigation using counsel of its own choice. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate in such litigation and shall share any recoveries in accordance with
Section 8.3(e). 
 ARTICLE IX. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 
 9.1. Treatment of Confidential Information. During the Term and for five (5) years thereafter, each Party shall maintain
Confidential Information of the other Party in confidence, and shall not disclose, divulge or otherwise communicate such Confidential Information to others (except for agents, directors, officers, employees, consultants, subcontractors, licensees,
partners, Affiliates and advisors (collectively, “Agents”) under obligations of confidentiality) or use it for any purpose other than in connection with the conduct of the Research Program, or the Development, Manufacture or
Commercialization of Licensed Products pursuant to this Agreement, and each Party shall exercise reasonable efforts to prevent and restrain the unauthorized disclosure of such Confidential Information by any of its Agents, which reasonable efforts
shall be at least as diligent as those generally used by such Party in

  

 -38- 








 
protecting its own confidential and proprietary information. Each Party will be responsible for a breach of this Article IX by its Agents. For clarity, each Party may disclose Confidential
Information of the other Party (a) to Regulatory Authorities (i) to the extent desirable to obtain or maintain INDs or Regulatory Approvals for any Licensed Product within the Territory and (ii) in order to respond to inquiries,
requests or investigations by Regulatory Authorities; (b) to outside consultants, scientific advisory boards, managed care organizations, and non-clinical and clinical investigators to the extent necessary to Develop or Commercialize any
Licensed Product (provided that such Party shall obtain the same confidentiality obligations from such Third Parties as it obtains with respect to its own similar types of confidential information); and (c) to the extent desirable to obtain
Patent Rights to protect, or to Develop or Commercialize, any Licensed Product. 
 9.2. Publication Rights. Each Party
agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their Affiliates’ employees, consultants, contractors, licensees and agents not to, publish or publicly present any results of any preclinical or clinical studies with respect
to any Licensed Product without the prior consent of the other Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by applicable Law, legal proceedings or for patent filings. Each Party acknowledges that the other Party has
an interest in the publication of studies related to Licensed Products conducted by itself and its collaborators, and agrees that the JSC will be responsible for determining which publications of this nature can occur without prejudice to the
interests of the other Party. Subject to the foregoing, each Party shall provide to the other Party the opportunity to review any proposed abstracts, manuscripts or summaries of presentations that disclose any Confidential Information or results of
preclinical or clinical studies with respect to any Licensed Product at least forty-five (45) days prior to the submission of such proposed abstract, manuscript or summary for publication or presentation. The reviewing Party shall have the
right: to propose modifications to the proposed disclosure; to prohibit or delay the proposed disclosure for patent reasons, trade secret reasons or business reasons; or to request a reasonable delay in publication or presentation in order to
protect patentable information. If the reviewing Party requests a delay, the publishing Party shall delay submission or presentation for a period of up to ninety (90) days to enable patent applications protecting each Party’s rights in
such information to be filed. If the reviewing Party requests modifications to the proposed disclosure, the publishing Party shall edit the proposed disclosure pursuant to the reviewing Party’s request prior to its submission. If the reviewing
Party prohibits publication, the publishing Party shall not publish the public presentation during the Term of this Agreement. With respect to any proposed abstracts, manuscripts or summaries for publication or presentation by investigators or other
Third Parties, such materials shall be subject to review in accordance with the terms and conditions of the clinical trial agreement entered into by a Party with such Third Party; provided that such clinical trial agreement has been
approved in writing in advance by the JSC in accordance with Section 8.1(d)(i) & (ii). 
 9.3. Public
Disclosure. 
 (a) The terms and conditions of this Agreement are Confidential Information hereunder and,
except as expressly set forth herein, the Parties shall not disclose any terms or conditions of this Agreement to any Third Party without first obtaining the written approval of the other Party prior to such disclosure. Additionally, the Parties
shall not use any name or trademark of the other Party in any publicity without the prior written approval of the other Party. After the Execution Date, AVEO may issue one or more press releases, subject to the prior approval of Schering-Plough,
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. 
  

 -39- 








 (b) Neither Party shall issue any additional press release or make any other
public disclosure concerning this Agreement or the subject matter hereof without first following the approval procedure of this Section 9.3(b). The disclosing Party shall provide the other Party with a copy of the proposed release or public
disclosure for review and comment as soon as reasonably practicable prior to the proposed disclosure date; provided that such right of review and comment shall only apply for the first time that specific information is to be disclosed,
and shall not apply to the subsequent disclosure of the same specific information that has previously been approved for disclosure. The Party proposing to make the press release or other public disclosure shall give due consideration to any
reasonable comments by the other Party relating to such proposed press release or other public disclosure. The principles to be observed by Schering-Plough and AVEO in press releases or other public disclosures with respect to this Agreement shall
be: accuracy, compliance with applicable legal requirements and the requirements of confidentiality under Article IX. For the avoidance of doubt, either Party may issue such press releases as it determines, based on the reasonable advice of counsel,
are reasonably necessary to comply with Law. It is understood, however, that except as provided in Section 9.3(c), or unless required by Law in the reasonable opinion of counsel, the Parties shall not disclose the specific financial terms and
conditions of this Agreement, any plans, projections or forecasts for clinical trials, regulatory approval, marketing or Commercialization of Licensed Product or other non-factual or speculative information in any press release or other public
disclosure. In addition, if a public disclosure is required by Law in the reasonable opinion of counsel, including without limitation in a filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the disclosing Party shall provide copies of
the proposed disclosure in advance (as set forth herein) of such filing or other disclosure for the non-disclosing Party’s prior review and comment and shall give due consideration to any reasonable comments by the non-filing Party relating to
such filing, including without limitation the provisions of this Agreement for which confidential treatment should be sought. In the event a Party believes that it is required by Law to make a disclosure under this Section 9.3(b) and the
non-disclosing Party disagrees with such conclusion, the Parties shall, through their attorneys, discuss and seek to resolve such disagreement. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions to the contrary in this Article IX, each Party shall be entitled to disclose the terms (including the financial terms) of this Agreement to a Party’s or its
Affiliates’ accountants and attorneys on the condition that such entities or persons agree to keep such terms confidential for the same time periods and to the same extent as such Party is required to keep such terms confidential. Subject to
the prior written approval of Schering-Plough, not to be unreasonably withheld, AVEO may disclose the terms of this Agreement to its other professional financial advisors and any existing or potential bona fide acquirers, investors or lenders on the
condition that such entities or persons agree to keep such terms confidential for the same time periods and to the same extent as AVEO is required to keep such terms confidential. For the sake of clarity, Schering-Plough may only withhold such
approval if there is a good faith disagreement between the Parties over whether a Third Party to whom AVEO is proposing to make the disclosure satisfies the requirements of this Section 9.3(c).

or acceleration under or trigger any other rights under any agreement or contract to which Schering-Plough may be a party that relates to the Licensed Products, Schering-Plough Patent Rights or Schering-Plough Know-How, except any that would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to adversely affect AVEO’s rights under this Agreement or the ability of Schering-Plough to perform its obligations under this Agreement. 
  

 -42- 








 10.3. AVEO Covenant. For so long as Schering-Plough is fulfilling its obligations
under Sections 4.1(f)(i) and 7.6(d) with respect to the [**], AVEO shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to maintain the [**] in good standing, and to not take any action (or omit or fail to take any action) that would result in a termination of

if it or any Person who is performing services hereunder is debarred or is the subject of a conviction described in Section 306, or if any action, suit, claim, investigation or legal or administrative proceeding is pending or, to the best of
such Party’s knowledge, is threatened, relating to the debarment or conviction of such Party or any Person used in any capacity by such Party or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of any

AVEO. Schering-Plough shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the AVEO Parties (as hereinafter defined) from and against any and all Losses incurred, suffered, or sustained by any of the AVEO Parties arising out of, relating to or resulting
from : 
 (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by
Schering-Plough in this Agreement; or 
 (b) any violation of the FD&C Act or any similar foreign Law by
Schering-Plough in connection with its performance under this Agreement; or 
 (c) any Third Party claim, action,
suit, proceeding, liability or obligation (collectively, “Third Party Claims”) arising out of, relating to or resulting from: 
 (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Schering-Plough in this Agreement; or 
 (ii) subject to Section 11.2(b)(ii), the Development, Manufacture, use or Commercialization of a Licensed Product by
Schering-Plough, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, including all Third Party Claims involving death or bodily injury caused or allegedly caused by the use of a Licensed Product, and even if a Licensed Product is altered for use for a purpose not
intended (any and all such Losses “Licensed Product Liability”); or 
 (iii) the negligence or
willful misconduct of any of the Schering-Plough Parties (as hereinafter defined) in connection with Schering-Plough’s performance under this Agreement. 
  

 -44- 








 For purposes of this Article XI, “AVEO Parties” means AVEO, its Affiliates
and their respective licensors, agents, directors, officers, employees and shareholders. 
 The indemnification obligations set
forth in this Section 11.1 shall not apply to the extent that any Loss is the result of a breach of this Agreement by AVEO or, with respect to any indemnitee, the negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnitee. 
 11.2. Indemnification in Favor of Schering-Plough. AVEO shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Schering-Plough Parties from
and against any and all Losses incurred, suffered or sustained by any of the Schering-Plough Parties or to which any of the Schering-Plough Parties becomes subject, arising out of, relating to or resulting from: 
 (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by AVEO in this Agreement; or

 (b) any Third Party Claim arising out of, relating to or resulting from: 
 (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by AVEO in this Agreement; or

 (ii) any violation of the FD&C Act or any similar foreign Law by AVEO in connection with its performance
under this Agreement; or 
 (iii) in the event AVEO elects its Co-Promotion Option, the Commercialization of a
Licensed Product by AVEO, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, including Third Party Claims involving death or bodily injury caused or allegedly caused by the use of a Licensed Product, and even if a Licensed Product is altered for use for a purpose not
intended (any and all such Losses “Licensed Product Liability”); or

 For purposes of this Article XI, “Schering-Plough Parties” means Schering-Plough, its Affiliates and their respective agents, directors, officers, employees and shareholders. 

The indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 11.2 shall not apply to the extent that any Loss is the result of a breach
of this Agreement by Schering-Plough or, with respect to any indemnitee, the negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnitee. 
  

 -45- 








 11.3. General Indemnification Procedures. 
 (a) If a Party or any of its Affiliates or their respective employees or agents (collectively, the
“Indemnitee”) intends to claim indemnification under Section 11.2 or 11.3, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect of
which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification, and the Indemnitor shall assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnitor and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee
shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnitee, if representation of such Indemnitee by the counsel retained by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between such Indemnitee and any other Party represented by such counsel in such proceedings. The Indemnitor shall have the right to settle or compromise any claims for which it is providing indemnification under this Section 11.3;
provided that the consent of the Indemnitee (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required in the event any such settlement or compromise would adversely affect the interests of the Indemnitee. The indemnity
agreement in this Section 11.3 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnitor. The failure to deliver notice to the Indemnitor
within a reasonable time after the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to the Indemnitor’s ability to defend such action, shall relieve such Indemnitor of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section 11.3 resulting from
such failure, but the omission so to deliver notice to the Indemnitor will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any Indemnitee otherwise than under this Section 11.3. The Indemnitee under this Section 11.3, its employees and
agents, shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any action, claim or liability covered by this indemnification. 
 11.4. Insurance. Each Party shall maintain appropriate product liability insurance (and/or self-insurance) with respect to its Research, Development, Manufacture and Commercialization activities
hereunder in such amount as such Party customarily maintains with respect to its other products. Each Party shall maintain such insurance for so long as it continues to conduct such activities hereunder, and thereafter for so long as such Party
customarily maintains insurance with respect to sales of its other products. 
 11.5. Exclusive Remedy. The Parties agree
and acknowledge that the provisions of this Article XI represent the Indemnified Party’s exclusive recourse with respect to any Losses for which indemnification is provided to the Indemnified Party under this Article XI. 
 ARTICLE XII. TERM AND TERMINATION 
 12.1. Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall, unless earlier terminated as provided in this Article XII, shall continue in full force and effect, on a
country-by-country and Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis until there is no remaining royalty obligation in such country with respect to such Licensed Product, at which time this Agreement shall expire in its entirety with respect to such
Licensed Product in such country. The Term shall expire on the date the Agreement has expired with respect to all Licensed Products in all countries in the Territory. 
 12.2. Termination Due to Passage of Time. Either Party may terminate this Agreement effective upon notice to the other Party if the HSR Clearance Date shall not have occurred on or prior to the
date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Parties make their respective HSR Filings pursuant to Section 14.1. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 12.2, then this Agreement, including Section 12.10 of
this Agreement, shall terminate; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement and the AVEO/SP Material Transfer Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this
Section 12.2. 
  

 -46- 








 12.3. Schering-Plough Termination at Will. Schering-Plough shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement upon ninety (90) days written notice to AVEO. 
 12.4. Termination for Cause. In the event
of a Material Breach of this Agreement by a Party, the other Party may give the Party in default written notice requiring it to cure such default. “Material Breach” shall mean a failure by a Party to perform one or more of its
obligations under this Agreement that, if not cured within the applicable cure period, is likely to cause material harm to the other Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such material harm shall be deemed to have occurred if the
breach causes or is likely to cause a material adverse effect on the global commercial value of a Licensed Product and to materially impair the ability of the non-breaching Party to realize the reasonably anticipated benefits of the global
commercialization of a Licensed Product. If such Material Breach is not cured within [**] days after receipt of such notice (or within [**] days in the case of a payment breach), the notifying Party shall be entitled (without prejudice to any of its
other rights conferred on it by this Agreement or under applicable Law) to terminate this Agreement (or such rights and obligations as are set forth in Section 12.8(b)) by giving written notice to the defaulting Party, with such termination to

 Either Party may change its address by giving notice to the other Party in the manner
provided above. 
 15.4. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including Exhibits and Schedules) contains the complete
understanding of the Parties with respect to the Development, Manufacture and Commercialization of Licensed Products and supersedes all prior understandings and writings relating to such subject matter. In particular, and without limitation, it
supersedes and replaces the Confidentiality Agreements, the AVEO/SP Material Transfer Agreement and any and all term sheets relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and exchanged between the Parties prior to the Execution Date. No
amendment change or addition to this Agreement will be effective or binding on either Party unless reduced to writing and duly executed on behalf of both Parties. 
 15.5. Headings. Headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered in construing this Agreement. 
 15.6. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held unenforceable by a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction because
it is invalid or conflicts with any Law of any relevant jurisdiction, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected. In such event, the Parties shall negotiate a substitute provision that, to the extent possible, accomplishes the
original business purpose. 
 15.7. Registration and Filing of the Agreement. To the extent a Party determines in good
faith that it is required by applicable Law to publicly file, register or notify this Agreement with a Regulatory Authority, including public filings pursuant to securities Laws, it shall provide the proposed redacted form of the Agreement to the
other Party a reasonable amount of time, not less than five (5) Business Days, prior to filing for the other Party to review such draft and propose changes to such proposed redactions. The Party making such filing, registration or notification
shall incorporate any proposed changes timely requested by the other Party, absent a substantial reason to the contrary, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek confidential treatment for any terms that the other Party timely requests
be kept confidential, to the extent such confidential treatment is reasonably available consistent with applicable Law. Each Party shall be responsible for its own legal and other external costs in connection with any such filing, registration or
notification. 
 15.8. Assignment. Either Party may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate of such Party without the prior
written consent of the other Party; provided, that such Party provides the other Party with written notice of such assignment and remains fully liable for the performance of such Party’s obligations hereunder by such Affiliate. Further, each
Party may assign this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party, to its successor in interest by way of merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to which this Agreement relates; provided, that such
Party provides the other Party with written notice of such assignment; and provided further, if the Third Party that acquires or controls AVEO or AVEO’s assets, as the case may be, following such a transaction is a Major Pharmaceutical Company
(as defined below), then, upon written notice by Schering-Plough, AVEO’s Co-Promotion Option pursuant to Section 5.2 and the provisions of Article 5 of this Agreement (other than Schering-Plough’s obligation to use Commercially
Reasonable Efforts to Commercialize Licensed Product in the Major Markets) shall terminate immediately.

Any other assignment of this Agreement by a Party requires the prior written consent of the other Party. Any assignment in violation of this Section 15.8 shall be null and void. This
Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the permitted successors and assigns of the Parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Party assigns this Agreement to its successor in interest by way of
merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to which this Agreement relates, the intellectual property rights of such successor in interest, and of any of its Affiliates as of just prior to such assignment, as existing
immediately prior to the closing of such transaction, shall be automatically excluded from the rights licensed to the non-assigning Party under this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 15.8, “Major Pharmaceutical Company”
means a Third Party company (including a pharmaceutical or biotech company or a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; but excluding Schering-Plough and any Affiliates of the Parties)
whose worldwide net sales (or reported equivalent) of human pharmaceutical products in the most recently completed fiscal year for which audited financial statements are publicly available exceed [**] US Dollars or whose net sales in the US of human
pharmaceutical products in the most recently completed fiscal year for which audited financial statements are publicly available exceed [**] US Dollars, as reported in such financial statements, or if not publicly available as provided by AVEO.

original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 15.10. Force Majeure. No Party shall
be liable for failure of or delay in performing obligations set forth in this Agreement, and no Party shall be deemed in breach of its obligations, if such failure or delay is due to a natural disaster, explosion, fire, flood, tornadoes,
thunderstorms, earthquake, war, terrorism, riots, embargo, losses or shortages of power, labor stoppage, substance or material shortages, damage to or loss of product in transit, events caused by reason of Laws of any Regulatory Authority, events
caused by acts or omissions of a Third Party, or any other cause reasonably beyond the control of such Party. 
 15.11.
Non-Solicitation of Employees. During the Research Program Term, neither Party shall directly recruit or solicit any employee of the other Party, who is then a current employee of the other Party, with whom such Party has come into contact or
interacted with for the purpose of performing this Agreement, without the prior consent of the other Party, except pursuant to general solicitations not targeted specifically at such employees or in response to unsolicited employment inquiries by
such employees. 
 15.12. Third-Party Beneficiaries. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of
or enforceable by any Third Party other than an indemnitee under Article XI. No such Third Party shall obtain any right under any provision of this Agreement or shall by reason of any such provision make any claim in respect of any debt, liability
or obligation (or otherwise) against either Party. 
  

 -56- 








 15.13. Relationship of the Parties. Each Party shall bear its own costs incurred in
the performance of its obligations hereunder without charge or expense to the other, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Neither Party shall have any responsibility for the hiring, termination or compensation of the other Party’s
employees or for any employee compensation or benefits of the other Party’s employees, other than as provided in Section 3.2(a). No employee or representative of a Party shall have any authority to bind or obligate the other Party for any
sum or in any manner whatsoever, or to create or impose any contractual or other liability on the other Party without said other Party’s approval. For all purposes, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
legal relationship under this Agreement of each Party to the other Party shall be that of independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to establish a relationship of partners or joint venturers between the Parties.

 15.14. Performance by Affiliates. To the extent that this Agreement imposes obligations on Affiliates of a Party, such
Party agrees to cause its Affiliates to perform such obligations. 
 15.15. Construction. Each Party acknowledges that it
has been advised by counsel during the course of negotiation of this Agreement, and, therefore, that this Agreement shall be interpreted without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction against the Party causing this Agreement to be
drafted. Any reference in this Agreement to an Article, Section, subsection, paragraph, clause, Schedule or Exhibit shall be deemed to be a reference to any Article, Section, subsection, paragraph, clause, Schedule or Exhibit, of or to, as the case
may be, this Agreement. Except where the context otherwise requires, (a) wherever used, the use of any gender will be applicable to all genders, (b) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document refers to
such agreement, instrument other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, (c) any reference to any Laws refers to such Laws as from time to time enacted, repealed or amended, and (d) the words
“herein”, “hereof” and hereunder” refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof. 
 15.16. No Consequential or Punitive Damages. NEITHER PARTY HERETO WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, ARISING
FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 15.16 IS INTENDED TO LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF EITHER PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THIRD
PARTY CLAIMS, OR WITH RESPECT TO THE INFRINGEMENT OR MISAPPROPRIATION OF THE OTHER PARTY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

Officer shall gather all relevant information from the disclosing individual. The Compliance Officer shall make a preliminary, good faith inquiry into the allegations set forth in every Disclosure to ensure that he or she has obtained all of
