the provision of Section 2.1 of the License Agreement, Calixa is allowed
to conduct clinical studies in any and all countries outside of the Territory

License Agreement.

 

2.               Unless as
otherwise expressly amended by this letter agreement, the License Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect between Astellas and Calixa.
