 SECTION 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF
SELLER 
 Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser, except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule (subject to the
qualifications set forth in Section 9.13), as follows: 
 2.1    Due
Incorporation. Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware and has all necessary power and authority to own and use its assets in the manner in which its assets are currently
owned and used. Seller is qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign corporation, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires such qualification or licensing, except where the failure to be so
qualified, licensed or in good standing does not have, and would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Seller or the ability of Seller to consummate the Transactions. 

2.2    Authority; Binding Nature of Agreement. Seller has the requisite corporate power and authority
to enter into this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the Transactions. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, and the consummation of the Transactions, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
actions of Seller. This Agreement constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of Seller, enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or similar
Laws of general application affecting or relating to the enforcement of creditors rights generally, and subject to equitable principles of general applicability, whether considered in a proceeding at Law or in equity (the “Bankruptcy,
Equity and Indemnity Exception”). 
 2.3    Purchased Assets. Except as set forth in
Section 2.3 of the Disclosure Schedule, Seller has good and valid title to all the Purchased Assets free and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted Liens. There are no options, warrants, equity securities, calls, rights,
commitments or agreements of any character to which Seller is a party or by which Seller is bound obligating Seller to exchange, transfer, deliver or sell, or cause to be exchanged, transferred, delivered or sold, the Purchased Assets. The
Transferred IP, Abintus Patents and Abintus Know-How constitute all of the material Intellectual Property owned or controlled by Seller that is necessary or useful to develop, commercialize and otherwise
exploit the RV Technology, as contemplated by Seller prior to the Closing Date. 

  
 4 













 2.4    Intellectual Property. 

(a)    Section 2.4(a)(i) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of: (i) each
item of Registered IP; and (ii) the jurisdiction in which such item of Registered IP has been registered or filed and the applicable registration or serial number. Seller is the sole owner of all Registered IP. With respect to each Patent
included in the Registered IP, Seller and its Affiliates have complied in all material respects with all of their obligations and duties to the respective patent offices, including the duty of candor and disclosure to the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office, and all applicable Laws. Seller has no Knowledge of any information, facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to result in any challenge to, or otherwise adversely impact, in any material respect, the ownership, use,
registrability, enforceability or validity of any Registered IP. To Seller’s Knowledge, the issued Patents included in the Registered IP are valid and enforceable. Section 2.4(a)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule
describes each filing, payment, and action that Seller or its legal counsel has received notice or is otherwise aware must be made or taken on or before the date that is [***] after the date of this Agreement in order to maintain each item of
Transferred Patents, Transferred Trademarks and Transferred Domain Names. No issued Patent included in the Registered IP is involved in any nullity, inter partes or interference, opposition, reissue, reexamination, revocation, or equivalent
proceeding, in which the inventorship, scope, validity or enforceability of any such Registered IP is being or has been contested or challenged, and to Seller’s Knowledge, no such proceeding has been threatened with respect to any such
Registered IP. 
 (b)    Seller owns, and has good, valid, unexpired and enforceable title (free and clear of all
Liens, other than Permitted Liens) to, all right, title and interest in and to all Transferred IP. 
 (c)    No
Person has asserted any written action, proceeding or other claim (or to Seller’s Knowledge, any oral claim) and, no such proceeding is pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened, against Seller (i) challenging ownership or other
right, interest or title in or to, or the use, validity, enforceability, patentability or registrability of, any Registered IP, or (ii) alleging infringement or misappropriation or other violation of any Intellectual Property rights by either
Seller or its Affiliates in respect of the Purchased Assets, including any demand to license Intellectual Property of any Third Party, or (iii) involving any allegations that a current or former employee, officer, director, consultant,
contractor, service provider or advisor of either Seller or its Affiliates (each, a “Seller Representative”) misappropriated, infringed or otherwise violated any Intellectual Property rights of any Person that had previously
employed or otherwise engaged such Seller Representative (such Person, a “Former Employer”) or breached any agreement with its Former Employer in connection with such Seller Representative’s employment by, or other
engagement with, or that otherwise relates to, either Seller or its Affiliates, in each case in relation to the Purchased Assets. 

(d)    None of the Registered IP is subject to any pending or outstanding consent, settlement, injunction,
directive, order, judgment, or other disposition of dispute that adversely impacts or restricts the use, ownership, transfer, registration or licensing or other disposition of any such Transferred IP, or otherwise adversely affects the validity,
scope, use, registrability, or enforceability of any Registered IP. 
 (e)    To Seller’s Knowledge, no
Person has infringed or misappropriated or otherwise violated, and no Person is currently infringing or misappropriating or otherwise violating, any Registered IP. 

(f)    Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates is obligated under any contract or other agreement to make any
payments by way of royalties, fees, or otherwise to any owner or licensor of, or other claimant to, any Transferred IP. 

(g)    Seller and its Affiliates have taken reasonable security and other measures to protect any Transferred IP,
including measures against unauthorized disclosure, to protect the secrecy, confidentiality, and value of its trade secrets and other technical information. 

  

			
		 	  

        [***]=CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OMITTED

 (h)    All Seller Representatives who have been involved in the
creation or development of Transferred IP for or on behalf of Seller, have executed valid and enforceable written Contracts that include (i) present assignments to Seller of sole ownership of all Transferred IP created for or on behalf of
Seller, and (ii) obligations of confidentiality that require such Seller Representatives to maintain and protect the confidential information of Seller and its Affiliates related to the Transferred IP (an “IP
Agreement”). Seller has secured written assignments from all Seller Representatives who contributed or contribute to the creation or development of any Transferred IP, of the rights to such Transferred IP arising from such contributions
that may be owned by such Seller Representatives or that Seller does not already own by operation of Law. To Seller’s Knowledge, no Seller Representative (A) has any right, title, license, claim, option or other similar interest whatsoever
in or with respect to any Transferred IP, or (B) is in material violation of any IP Agreement. 
 (i)    To
Seller’s Knowledge, except as set forth on Schedule 2.4(i) of the Disclosure Schedule, no Governmental Body or academic institution has any rights in or to, ownership of, or right to royalties and/or other payments for, any Transferred IP, nor
has either Seller or its Affiliates used, directly or indirectly, any funding, grants, facilities, IP or personnel or other similar resources of any such Person in connection with any research or development of the Transferred IP. 

(j)    The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions (alone or in
combination with any other event), and the compliance with the provisions of this Agreement do not and will not conflict with, alter, or impair, any of the rights of Seller in or to any Transferred IP or the validity, enforceability, registrability,
use, right to use, ownership, priority, duration, scope, or effectiveness of any Registered IP. 

2.5    Regulatory Matters. 

(a)    All preclinical studies, Clinical Trials and investigations sponsored by Seller for the Clinical Product have
been conducted in material compliance with then-applicable Laws, and the then-applicable rules, regulations and guidances of any applicable Governmental Body, including, as applicable, Good Laboratory Practices and Good Clinical Practices
requirements, and federal and state Laws, rules, regulations and binding guidances. Seller has made available to Purchaser complete and correct copies of all clinical expedited safety reports and other adverse event related reports with respect to
Clinical Trials sponsored by Seller, and all Regulatory Authority communications and documents submitted by Seller to or received by Seller from any Regulatory Authority, including inspection reports, warning letters and similar documents, relating
to Seller or the Clinical Product. Seller and its Affiliates have not submitted any Regulatory Documentation to a Regulatory Authority in connection with the Clinical Product other than the Transferred Records. 

(b)    In relation to Seller’s research and development of the Clinical Product, Seller is not subject to any
enforcement, regulatory or administrative proceedings against or affecting Seller relating to or arising under the FDCA or similar Law, and to Seller’s Knowledge no such enforcement, regulatory or administrative proceeding has been threatened.

 (c)    Seller has never been, and to Seller’s Knowledge, none of the Seller Representatives involved in
researching or developing the Clinical Product has ever been, (i) debarred (under the provisions of the Generic Drug Enforcement Act of 1992, 21 U.S.C. §335a (a) and (b)), (ii) convicted of a crime for which a person can be
debarred or (iii) indicted for a crime or otherwise engaged in conduct for which a person can be debarred or excluded from participating in any U.S. federal health care programs. 

2.6    Compliance with Laws. In relation to Seller’s research, development and use of the Purchased
Assets, Seller is in material compliance with, and has been in material compliance with, the then-applicable Laws, and Seller has not received any written notices or to Seller’s Knowledge other notices of any violation with respect to such
Laws. 

  
 6 













 2.7    Contracts. Seller has made available to Purchaser
true and complete copies of all Transferred Contracts and written amendments thereto, and Seller has not waived in writing any material rights or obligations under any Transferred Contract. Except as set forth in
Section 2.7 of the Disclosure Schedule, (a) each Transferred Contract is legal, valid and binding on Seller and, to Seller’s Knowledge, the other party thereto, and is in full force and effect in accordance with
its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy, Equity and Indemnity Exception, (b) Seller is not, and to Seller’s Knowledge no other party thereto is in material breach or material default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any
obligation or covenant contained in any Transferred Contract and, to Seller’s Knowledge, no event has occurred, that with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material breach or material default thereunder, and
(c) Seller has not received written notice or to Seller’s Knowledge other notice from any Person at any time during the past two years regarding any actual, alleged or potential violation or breach of, or default under, any of the
Transferred Contracts or stating that such Person intends to terminate, cancel or make any material change to any Transferred Contract and there are no pending renegotiations of any of the Transferred Contracts. 

2.8    Legal Proceedings; Orders. There is no pending Legal Proceeding, and, to Seller’s
Knowledge, no Person has threatened to commence any Legal Proceeding: (a) that involves any of the Purchased Assets; or (b) that challenges, or that may have the effect of preventing, delaying, making illegal or otherwise interfering with,
the Transactions. There is no order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any Governmental Body to which any of the Purchased Assets is subject. 

2.9    Non-Contravention; Consents. The execution and
delivery of this Agreement by Seller and the consummation by Seller of the Transactions will not cause a: (a) violation of any of Seller’s Organizational Documents; (b) violation by Seller of any Law applicable to Seller, except as
would not reasonably be expected to materially and adversely impact Seller’s ability to consummate the Transactions; or (c) default (or an event that, with or without notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default) on the part
of Seller under, result in a material modification or termination under, or give to others any rights of termination, modification, acceleration, reacquisition, transfer or cancellation of, or result in the creation of a Lien on, any of the
Transferred IP. Seller is not required to obtain any Consent from any Governmental Body or Third Party at any time prior to the Closing in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation by Seller of the Transactions

 9.10    Severability. Any term or provision of this
Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any
other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall
have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the
intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Parties hereto agree to replace such
invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term. 

9.11    Specific Performance. Each Party hereto agrees that this Agreement is intended to be legally binding
and specifically enforceable pursuant to its terms and that Purchaser and Seller would be irreparably harmed if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that monetary damages would not
provide adequate remedy in such event. Accordingly, in addition to any other remedy to which a non-breaching Party may be entitled at law, a non-breaching Party shall be
entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof, in each case without posting a bond or undertaking, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are
entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the
other Party has an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. 

9.12    Construction. 

(a)    For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires: the singular number shall include the plural,
and vice versa; the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender shall include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender shall include masculine and feminine genders. 

(b)    This Agreement is written and executed in the English language. Any translation into any other language
shall not be an official version of this Agreement and in the event of any conflict in interpretation between the English version and such translation, the English version shall prevail. 

(c)    The Parties hereto agree that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved
against the drafting Party shall not be applied in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. 

(d)    As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof,
shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” 

  
 16 













 (e)    Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this
Agreement to “Sections,” “Exhibits” and “Schedules” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and Exhibits or Schedules to this Agreement. 

(f)    The bold-faced headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, shall not be
deemed to be a part of this Agreement and shall not be referred to in connection with the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. 

(g)    All amounts payable under this Agreement shall be calculated and paid in U.S. Dollars. 

9.13    Disclosure Schedule. The Disclosure Schedule has been arranged, for purposes of convenience only, as
separate sections corresponding to the subsections of Section 2 of this Agreement. The representations and warranties contained in Section 2 of this Agreement are subject to (a) the exceptions
and disclosures set forth in the part of the Disclosure Schedule corresponding to the particular subsection of Section 2 in which such representation and warranty appears; (b) any exceptions or disclosures explicitly
cross-referenced in such part of the Disclosure Schedule by reference to another part of the Disclosure Schedule; and (c) any exception or disclosure set forth in any other part of the Disclosure Schedule to the extent it is reasonably apparent
on the face of such disclosure that such exception or disclosure is intended to qualify such representation and warranty. No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in the Disclosure Schedule shall be construed as an admission or
