overriding authority, the claim shall be reinstated as a Valid Claim with respect to sale of Products made after the date of such reversal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a claim of a pending patent application has not issued as a claim of an
issued patent, within five (5) years after the date from which such claim takes priority, such pending claim shall not be a Valid Claim for purposes of this Agreement. 

ARTICLE 2 
 LICENSES

 2.1    Grants to LICENSEE.

 ARTICLE 3 

FEES AND ROYALTIES 

3.1    Royalties. In consideration of the rights and licenses granted by LICENSOR under this Agreement, except as
otherwise provided in this Article 3, LICENSEE agrees to pay to LICENSOR a royalty equal to three percent (3%) of Net Sales. 

3.2    Stacking. If LICENSEE, its Affiliate or Sublicensee, in its reasonable judgment, is required to pay a Third
Party additional amounts with respect to a Product for patent rights or other intellectual property rights or technologies, then fifty percent (50%) of the amounts paid to such Third Party will be offset against amounts owed to LICENSOR under this
Agreement. However, in no event will the amount paid to LICENSOR be reduced to less than fifty percent (50%) of the amounts otherwise due to LICENSOR under Section 3.1. 

3.3    Combination Product. In the event that a Product is sold in combination with another product, component or
service for which no royalty would be due hereunder if sold separately, Net Sales from such combination sales for purposes of calculating the amounts due under this Article 3 shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the combination
product by the fraction A/(A + B), where A is the average gross selling price during the previous calendar quarter of the Product sold separately and B is the gross selling price during the previous calendar quarter of the combined product(s),
component(s) and/or service(s). In the event that a substantial number of such separate sales were not made during the previous calendar quarter then the Net Sales shall be as reasonably allocated by LICENSEE between such Product and such other
product(s), component(s) or service(s) based upon their relative importance and proprietary protection. 

3.4    Single Royalty. Only one royalty under Section 3.1 shall be paid with respect to unit of Product sold,
without regard to whether more than one Valid Claim within the Licensed Patents is applicable to such unit. It is understood that no royalty shall be due with respect to use or transfers of Products for use in research or development activities.

 ARTICLE 4 

PAYMENT AND REPORTS 

4.1    Royalty Reports and Payments. Commencing with the first sale of Product by LICENSEE, its Affiliate or
Sublicensee hereunder, LICENSEE shall provide a royalty report to LICENSOR, within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar quarter, showing: (i) the aggregate Net Sales of Products for such calendar quarter; and (ii) a
calculation of total royalties due LICENSOR with respect to such Products. Simultaneously with the delivery of each such report, LICENSEE shall pay to LICENSOR the total royalties, if any, due to LICENSOR in accordance with ARTICLE 3 for the period
of such report. If no royalties or fees are due, LICENSEE shall so report. 

  
 4 













 Such reports shall be deemed to be the Confidential Information of LICENSEE, even if not marked as
confidential. 
 4.2    Withholdings Taxes. Any withholding or other tax that is required by law to be withheld
with respect to payments owed by LICENSEE pursuant to this Agreement shall be deducted by LICENSEE from such payment prior to remittance. LICENSEE shall promptly furnish LICENSOR evidence of any such taxes withheld; provided that the Parties shall
cooperate to minimize any such taxes to the extent allowable by applicable law. 
 4.3    Records. During the
term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years thereafter, LICENSEE shall keep complete and accurate records related to the sale of Products (and cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to keep and provide copies of such records to
LICENSEE) in sufficient detail to enable the royalties payable under Article 3 to be determined. Upon LICENSOR’S written request, but not more frequently than once per calendar year, LICENSEE shall permit an independent certified public
accountant selected by the LICENSOR and reasonably acceptable to LICENSEE, to examine the aforementioned records during such LICENSEE’S regular business hours for the purpose of and to the extent necessary to verify any report under this
Agreement received not more than three (3) years prior to the date of such request for an audit. Such audit shall be at the expense of LICENSOR, however, in the event such audit demonstrates an underpayment, then LICENSEE shall pay such
underpaid amount plus interest on the applicable amount at the U.S. prime rate quoted in the “Money Rates” column of The Wall Street Journal (U.S., Internet Edition) on the first business day after such underpayment discovered, or
at the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, based upon the number of days is overdue. In addition, if such audit shows an underpayment of ten percent (10%) or more for the period of such audit, then LICENSEE shall promptly reimburse
LICENSOR for its reasonable cost and expense incurred in performing such audit. All information learned under this Section 4.3 shall be deemed Confidential Information of LICENSEE. 

ARTICLE 5 
 DUE
DILIGENCE 
 5.1    Diligence Requirement. LICENSEE shall use commercially reasonable efforts to develop
and sell Products. Additionally, after the first commercial sale of Products hereunder, LICENSEE shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to meet the market demand for such Products; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed
to constrain or otherwise limit LICENSEE’S pricing or product strategy for Products, which shall be in LICENSEE’S sole discretion. 

ARTICLE 6 

PROSECUTION AND ENFORCEMENT 

6.1    Prosecution of Licensed Patents. 

  
 5 













 (a)    Prosecution and Maintenance. LICENSEE shall have the first
right to Prosecute and Maintain the Licensed Patents at its own expense, using patent counsel of its choice. LICENSEE shall keep LICENSOR reasonably informed regarding matters related to the Prosecution and Maintenance of each patent or patent
application within the Licensed Patents, including providing to LICENSOR copies of all significant documents sent to or received from any patent office regarding any such Licensed Patents, such as patent applications, office actions, amendments,
other responses, rejections, notices of interference, re-examinations, oppositions, requests for patent term extensions, and other filings. LICENSEE shall involve LICENSOR in the process of preparing documents
and other communications to be filed in a patent office with respect to such Licensed Patents (“Filings”), as reasonably requested by LICENSOR, including using good faith efforts to include LICENSOR’S reasonable comments and
recommendations with respect to Filings. In the event that LICENSEE elects to abandon any patent or application within the Licensed Patents, it shall notify LICENSOR at least sixty (60) days in advance, in which case LICENSOR shall have the
right to control the Prosecution and Maintenance of such patents and applications (including any patent issuing therefrom), at its sole expense. 

(b)    For purposes of this Section 6.1, “Prosecution and Maintenance” shall mean, with respect to
any patent or application therefor, the preparing, filing, prosecuting and maintenance of such patent or application, as well as re-examinations, reissues, requests for patent term extensions and the like with
respect to such patents, together with the conduct of interferences, the defense of oppositions and other similar proceedings with respect thereto; and “Prosecute and Maintain” shall have the correlative meaning. 

6.2    Enforcement. Subject to the provisions of this Section 6.2, in the event that either Party reasonably
believes that any Licensed Patent is being infringed by a Third Party or is subject to a declaratory judgment action arising from such infringement, in each case with respect to the manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale or importation of any
product in the Territory in the Field (an “Infringing Product”), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party. In such event, as between the Parties, LICENSEE shall have the initial right (but not the obligation) to enforce such
Licensed Patents with respect to such infringement, or to defend any declaratory judgment action with respect thereto (an “Enforcement Action”), at LICENSEE’S expense. 

(a)    Commencing Enforcement Actions. In the event that LICENSEE fails to commence an Enforcement Action to
enforce such Licensed Patent against an infringement in the Territory, which infringement consists of the manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale or importation of an Infringing Product, within one hundred eighty (180) days of a request by
LICENSOR to do so, LICENSOR may commence an Enforcement Action against such infringement at its own expense; provided that LICENSEE does not provide reasonable rationale for not doing so (including a substantive concern regarding counterclaims by
such infringing Third Party). The Party commencing or defending any such Enforcement Action (the “Enforcing Party”) shall keep the other Party reasonably informed of the progress of any such Enforcement Action, and such other Party
shall have the right to participate with counsel of its own choice at its own expense. In any 

  
 6 













 
event, the other Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Enforcing Party, including providing information and materials, at the Enforcing Party’s request and expense. 

(b)    Recoveries. Any recovery received as a result of any Enforcement Action to enforce any Licensed Patent
pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be used first to reimburse the Enforcing Party’s costs and expenses (including attorneys’ and professional fees) incurred in connection with such Enforcement Action, and the remainder of the recovery
shall be shared seventy-five percent (75%) to the Enforcing Party and twenty-five percent (25%) to the other Party. 
 ARTICLE 7 

CONFIDENTIALITY 

7.1    Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement and for five (5) years thereafter, except
as provided herein, each Party shall maintain in confidence, and shall not use for any purpose or disclose to any third Party, information that is disclosed by the other Party in writing and marked “Confidential” or that is disclosed
orally and confirmed in writing as confidential within forty-five (45) days following such disclosure (collectively, “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall not include any information that is:
(i) already known to the receiving Party at the time of disclosure hereunder, or (ii) now or hereafter becomes publicly known other than through acts or omissions of the receiving Party, or (iii) is disclosed to the receiving Party by
a Third Party under no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing Party or (iv) independently developed by the receiving Party without reliance on the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party.

reasonably necessary in Prosecution and Maintenance of patents (including applications therefor) in accordance with this Agreement, complying with the terms of agreements with Third Parties, prosecuting or defending litigation, complying with
applicable governmental regulations, filing for, obtaining and maintaining regulatory approvals, or otherwise required by applicable law, provided, however, that if a Party is required by law to make any such disclosure of the other Party’s
Confidential Information it will, except where impracticable for necessary disclosures (for example, in the event of medical emergency), give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure requirement and, except to the extent
inappropriate in the case of patent applications, will use its reasonable efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information required to be disclosed; (iii) in communication with existing and potential investors,
consultants, advisors (including financial advisors, lawyers and accountants) and others on a need to know basis, in each case under appropriate confidentiality provisions substantially equivalent to those of this Agreement; or (iv) to the
extent mutually agreed to by the Parties. 

  
 7 













 7.3    Confidential Terms. Each Party agrees not to disclose to
any Third Party the terms and conditions of this Agreement without the prior approval of the other Party, except to advisors (including consultants, financial advisors, attorneys and accountants), potential and existing investors, and others on a
need to know basis, in each case under circumstances that reasonably protect the confidentiality thereof, or to the extent necessary to comply with the terms of agreements with Third Parties, or to the extent required by applicable law, including
securities laws. 
 ARTICLE 8

Parties (each of the foregoing, a “Claim”) against LICENSOR, to the extent caused by LICENSEE’S exercise of its rights and licenses granted by LICENSOR in this Agreement, and pay any final judgment rendered on such Claim or any
settlement of such Claim approved by LICENSEE in writing. 
 8.2    Conditions. LICENSEE shall have no
obligations with respect to Claims under this ARTICLE 8 unless LICENSOR: (i) promptly notifies LICENSEE in writing of such Claims, (ii) gives LICENSEE sole control of the defense and settlement thereof using legal counsel approved by
LICENSOR, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (iii) provides LICENSEE, at LICENSEE’S expense, with reasonable assistance and full information with respect to such Claims. LICENSEE shall have no obligations
with respect to such Claims if LICENSOR makes any admission, settlement or other communication regarding such Claim without the prior written consent of LICENSEE. In addition, LICENSEE shall have no obligation to indemnify LICENSOR for any costs or
expenses incurred without LICENSEE’S prior written consent.

9.2    Disclaimer. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS ARTICLE 9, NEITHER PARTY MAKES ANY REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR

period. However, if LICENSEE disputes in good faith LICENSOR’S right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to LICENSOR during such sixty (60)-day period, LICENSOR shall not have the right to
terminate this Agreement unless and until it has been determined in accordance with Section 11.2 that LICENSEE materially breached this Agreement, and LICENSEE fails to cure such material breach within sixty (60) days after such
determination. 
 (b)    By LICENSEE. Any provision herein notwithstanding, LICENSEE shall have the right to

provided in Section 10.3(d), Section 2.1 shall terminate and all rights in the Licensed Patents shall revert to LICENSOR. 

(b)    No Release. Termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not release either Party hereto from any
liability which at the time of such termination has already accrued to the other Party. 
 (c)    Stock on Hand.
In the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, LICENSEE shall have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of all Products in the process of manufacture, testing, in use or in stock, provided that LICENSEE shall remain obligated to make
payment of royalties to LICENSOR for such Products in accordance with Section 3.1. 
 (d)    Sublicenses.
Upon the termination of this Agreement by LICENSOR for any reason, any sublicense granted by LICENSEE hereunder shall survive, provided

Section 10.3, all other provisions of this Agreement shall terminate upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE
11 
 GENERAL 

11.1    Governing Law. This agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the
laws of the State of California, United States of America, without reference to principles of conflicts of law. 

11.2    Arbitration. The Parties agree that any dispute or controversy arising out of, in relation to, or in
connection with this Agreement, or the making, interpretation, construction, performance or breach hereof, shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in San Diego, California under the then current rules of the Judicial Arbitration and
Mediation Services (JAMS) by one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with such rules. The arbitrator may grant injunctive or other relief in such dispute or controversy. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding
on the Parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties agree that, any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, they will not request and the arbitrator
shall have no authority to award, punitive or exemplary damages against either Party. The costs of the arbitration, including administrative and arbitrator’s fees, shall be shared equally by the Parties. Each Party shall bear the cost of its
own attorneys’ fees and expert witness fees. Nothing in this Section 11.2 shall preclude either Party from seeking interim or provisional relief in the form of a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim relief
concerning a dispute prior to or during an arbitration pursuant to this Section 11.2 necessary to protect the interests of such Party. 

11.3    Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by either Party without the prior written consent of the
other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, LICENSEE may, without such consent, assign this Agreement and the rights, obligations and interests of LICENSEE, in whole or in part, to any of its Affiliates or to a Third Party that succeeds to all or
substantially all of LICENSEE’S business or assets relating to this Agreement whether by sale, merger, operation of law or otherwise; provided that such assignee promptly agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. 
 11.4    Force Majeure. In the event either Party hereto is prevented from or delayed in the
performance of any of its obligations hereunder by reason of acts of God, war, strikes, riots, storms, fires, earthquake, power shortage or failure, failure of the 

  
 10 













 
transportation system, or any other cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of the Party (“Force Majeure Event”), the Party so prevented or delayed shall be excused from

Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given if delivered in person, transmitted by facsimile (receipt verified) or by express courier service (signature required) or five (5) days after it was sent by
registered letter, return receipt requested (or its equivalent), provided that no postal strike or other disruption is then in effect or comes into effect within two (2) days after such mailing, to the Party to which it is directed at its
