developed, in licensed or otherwise acquired by the RESEARCHERS, together with all chemical and biological information in their possession with respect to such COMPOUNDS and specifying those COMPOUNDS, if any, which are covered by RESEARCHERS’
PATENTS. 

  

	3.2	Not later than two (2) weeks after delivery of such information by the RESEARCHERS, SENETEK will select and advise the RESEARCHERS, in writing, of those COMPOUNDS on which it
wishes to conduct TESTING at that time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as regards COMPOUNDS which the RESEARCHERS’ listing under Article 3.1 specifies are covered by the RESEARCHERS’ PATENTS, if SENETEK does not give the RESEARCHERS
written advice that it wishes to conduct TESTING of any such COMPOUND within four (4) months after it receives the listing provided for in Article 3.1, SENETEK shall be considered to have waived its rights to such COMPOUND for all purposes of
this AGREEMENT and the RESEARCHERS shall be free to commercialize such COMPOUND themselves or enter into an evaluation agreement or license or other agreement with respect thereto with any third party on such terms as they may determine in their
sole discretion, subject, however, to SENETEK’s rights, if any, under the SENETEK PATENTS and provided, however, that before RESEARCHERS shall enter into an evaluation agreement or license or other agreement with any third party,
RESEARCHERS shall give notice to SENETEK of the terms on which they propose to enter into such evaluation agreement or license or other agreement and SENETEK shall have thirty (30) days to enter into such agreement with the RESEARCHERS on the
same terms, providing these terms are not worse for the RESEARCHERS than the terms in Annex 1- License Agreement Term Sheet, in which case the terms of Annex 1 will be used. 

 The RESEARCHERS shall within two (2) weeks of receipt of each advice of 
  

	3.3	SENETEK specifying selected COMPOUNDS it then wishes to TEST, deliver the selected COMPOUNDS to SENETEK in a quantity of at least 100 mg each. 

  

	3.4	If practicable, not later than nine (9) months after each delivery by the RESEARCHERS of the listing of COMPOUNDS as provided in Article 3.1, SENETEK will provide the
RESEARCHERS with a report of the results of the TESTING of the new COMPOUNDS set forth in such listing. SENETEK will also indicate those COMPOUNDS for which SENETEK wishes to be granted a license. SENETEK may, if it so chooses, deliver such reports
and indicate COMPOUNDS it wishes to license on more than one occasion during such period. Such license shall be exclusive and worldwide, for all applications.

	3.5	Within three (3) months of SENETEK’s decision to license COMPOUNDS as provided in Article 3.4, the PARTIES will enter into a License Agreement with respect to such
COMPOUNDS having principal terms as set forth in Annex 1- License Agreement Term. The final details of the License Agreement will be negotiated in good faith by the PARTIES hereto. 

  

	3.6	If SENETEK does not deliver one or more reports as provided in Article 3.4 or, having delivered such report or reports, decides not to execute a License Agreement negotiated by the
PARTIES as provided in Article 3.5, as to any particular COMPOUND or COMPOUNDS covered by any NEW PATENT APPLICATION, then the PARTIES will agree how to commercialize such COMPOUNDS and how to share revenues from such commercialization. Any such
agreement on particular COMPOUNDS will be recorded in writing, signed by all PARTIES, and will become an appendix to this AGREEMENT. In case of COMPOUNDS covered by RESEARCHERS’ PATENTS, RESEARCHERS shall be free to commercialize such COMPOUND
or COMPOUNDS themselves or enter into an evaluation agreement or license or other agreement with respect thereto with any third party on such terms as they may determine in their sole discretion, subject, however, to SENETEK’s rights, if
any, under the SENETEK PATENTS. 

  

	3.7	RESEARCHERS agree that they will not enter into any cooperative research and development agreement with any third party involving any chemical compounds other than COMPOUNDS for
cosmeceutical or anti-aging dermatological uses without first offering to SENETEK the opportunity to enter into such cooperative research and development agreement instead of such third party on the same terms as those proposed by or to such third
party. SENETEK will exercise its right of first refusal within 4 weeks of receiving the proposed cooperative research and development agreement. 

  

	3.8	RESEARCHERS represent and warrant to SENETEK that their entering into and performing this AGREEMENT will not violate any agreement or obligation of any of the RESEARCHERS with or to
any third party or give rise to any claim by any third party. The RESEARCHERS shall deliver to SENETEK, together with the AGREEMENT signed on their behalf, letters signed by authorized representatives of Ministry of Science and Information (MNII)
and any other legal entity with which any of RESEARCHERS are affiliated, waiving any claim against SENETEK related to the subject matter of this AGREEMENT. 

 ARTICLE 4 - ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION; DEVELOPMENT OF SELECTED COMPOUNDS 
 In addition to the RESEARCHERS’ rights
of patent ownership under Article 5, as additional consideration for the rights granted to SENETEK herein SENETEK agrees that if SENETEK advises the RESEARCHERS as provided in Article 3.2 that it wishes RESEARCHERS to conduct TESTING on any COMPOUND
or COMPOUNDS, SENETEK will be obligated to payor reimburse the RESEARCHERS for the expenses of such TESTING and/or further evaluation, in vitro testing, and development of the selected COMPOUNDS (collectively with

the TESTING, the ‘R&D”). Such payments to the RESEARCHERS shall be made by bank transfer monthly, as such expenses are incurred, to the account
titled:

 SWIFT NO: 
 ACCOUNT NO: 
 NAME OF ACCOUNT HOLDER:

 If the PARTIES agree that any R&D can most efficiently and
effectively be done by the RESEARCHERS or by a third party laboratory with which the RESEARCHERS have a relationship, such expenses shall be billed at the RESEARCHERS’ direct cost of conducting or contracting out such activities. If the PARTIES
agree that any R&D can most efficiently and effectively be done by SENETEK’s dedicated laboratories or by a third party laboratory or academic institution with which SENETEK has a relationship, SENETEK shall pay for such activities and
provide the RESEARCHERS with documentation of such payment. 
 It is agreed by the PARTIES that they shall consult in good faith regarding the nature, scope
and costs of all R&D, the protocols therefore and the most efficient and effective sourcing thereof, provided that if agreement cannot be reached between the PARTIES within a reasonable time (having in mind the time limits set forth
herein), SENETEK’s position shall prevail. SENETEK shall own all rights to any and all test reports and test results from R&D paid for or reimbursed by SENETEK as above provided, and the RESEARCHERS agree not to make any publication or
other disclosure thereof without SENETEK’S prior written approval. 
 ARTICLE 5 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND EXPLOITATION OF THE RESULTS

  

	5.1	INVENTIONS THAT MAY BE CREATED UNDER RESEARCH CO-OPERATION OF PARTIES

protection, the following arrangement shall apply: 
 (a) the PARTIES shall collaborate in the preparation of documents required for the
filing of a patent application on each such invention; 
 (b) all such patent applications shall be filed and owned by the RESEARCHERS, and

prepared under this Article 5.1, SENETEK will take over the cost of obtaining and maintaining the patent protection of the invention; provided that if such patent covers COMPOUNDS which SENETEK has elected not to license or claims fields of
use for COMPOUNDS licensed to SENETEK that are beyond the fields of use SENETEK has 

  

 Furfurylcytosine

elected to license, the PARTIES shall share such cost according to the commercial potential of SENETEK’S COMPOUND and/or field of use and such
COMPOUND(S) and/or fields of use not licensed to SENETEK. 
 (f) the license fee paid by SENETEK for the grant to it of an exclusive license
shall take into account the contribution made by SENETEK (both of cash and intellectual property) to the jointly developed invention; 
 (g)
if the RESEARCHERS do not wish to file a patent application covering a jointly developed invention in a certain TERRITORY, SENETEK may file a patent application covering the jointly developed invention in such TERRITORY at its own cost in which case
the patent protection obtained shall be owned one hundred percent (100%) by SENETEK. 
  

	5.2	All scientific data regarding patent applications will be written by the RESEARCHERS, in English, and will be presented to SENETEK for review and comments. Each patent application
