“Third Party Obligations”), Seller shall, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, assign to Buyer (and execute all documents reasonably necessary for such assignment) all Seller’s right, title and interest to such Option
Antibody (including patent and other Intellectual Property rights covering such antibody that are owned by Seller). Buyer shall promptly reimburse Seller for, or, at Seller’s request, advance to Seller, [***] (the “[***]”). If in
connection with the exercise of the Option, Buyer reasonably requests that Seller conduct additional studies, then the Parties shall agree on the scope and terms of the studies and Buyer shall pay Seller its direct costs to conduct such studies.

the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Action and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the


  
 - 9 - 













 
Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure. Within
20 days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party;
provided that the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of Third Party Action for such portion of such Third Party Action involving criminal liability of an Indemnified Party or in which equitable relief is sought against the
Indemnified Party that, if granted, would materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not permitted under the terms hereof to, so assume control of the defense of a Third Party Action, the
Indemnified Party shall control such defense. The Non-controlling Party may participate in such defense at its own expense. The Controlling Party shall keep the
Non-controlling Party advised of the status of such Third Party Action and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the
Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such Third
Party Action (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such Party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise reasonably
cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third Party Action. The fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party with respect to a Third Party Action shall be considered Damages for purposes of this Agreement if
the Indemnified Party controls the defense of such Third Party Action pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.5. The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Action
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that the consent of the Indemnified Party shall not be required if the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay
any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a complete release of the Indemnified Party from further liability. In the event that the Indemnified Party fails to provide its consent to a firm
settlement offer, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party shall not exceed the amount of such firm settlement offer. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third Party
Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. 
 (b)
In the event that any Indemnified Party desires to seek indemnification under this ARTICLE VI, the Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Party, which written notice shall include a general summary of the basis for
such claim and the amount, to the extent known, of the claim; provided, however, any failure on the part of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not limit any of the obligations of the Indemnifying Party, or any of the
rights of any Indemnified Party, under this ARTICLE VI (except to the extent such failure prejudices the Indemnifying Party). Upon receipt of the written notice from the Indemnified Party of a claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have
thirty (30) days in which to investigate the claim and the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the applicable claim, and whether
and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of such claim. If the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim for indemnification or any portion thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party in writing within such


  
 - 10 - 













 
thirty (30) day period, whereupon the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly meet and attempt in good faith to resolve their differences with respect to such claim or
any portion of such claim for indemnification. If the dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party’s notice of such dispute, either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may proceed with
pursuing the remedies provided herein to resolve such dispute. In the event no written notice disputing or objecting to such claim or any portion of such claim for indemnification is delivered by the Indemnifying Party prior to the expiration of the
thirty (30) days in which the Indemnifying Party may dispute such claim for indemnification, the claim(s) stated by the Indemnified Party shall be conclusively deemed to be rejected by the Indemnifying Party. 

6.6 General Provisions and Limitations. 

(a) Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Damages upon becoming aware of
any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Damages. 

(b) In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party under this ARTICLE VI for any punitive damages relating to the
breach or alleged breach of this Agreement.

reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for, and any claims for Damages shall be reduced by, any amount to the extent such Indemnified Party has previously been reimbursed for such amount under any other provision of this Agreement, from
insurance proceeds or from any other source including any claim, recovery, settlement, or payment from any other Person. 
 (d) No amounts
shall be payable with respect to any Damages until such Damages have been actually paid, sustained or incurred by the Indemnified Party, as applicable, or determined by a final, nonappealable order, judgment or decree of any court of competent

parties, and their respective Affiliates, representatives, successors and assigns with respect to any and all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the performance by all parties of
this Agreement, and no other remedy, other than pursuant to the specific terms of this Agreement shall be had pursuant to any contract, misrepresentation, strict liability or tort theory or otherwise by any Party, with respect to itself, its
Affiliates, representatives, successors and assigns, all such remedies being hereby expressly waived to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law; provided, that, the foregoing does not (a) waive or affect any claims for actual,
intentional fraud, or (b) waive or affect any equitable remedies to which a Party may be entitled. In addition to the foregoing, the amount of indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party set forth in this ARTICLE VI shall be the
maximum amount of indemnification obligations arising in connection with this Agreement,
