RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT 

This RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (the “AGREEMENT”) is entered into as of August 17, 2015 (the
“EFFECTIVE DATE”) by and among THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS M. D. ANDERSON CANCER CENTER (“UTMDACC”), a member institution of THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS SYSTEM (“SYSTEM”), ZIOPHARM ONCOLOGY, INC., a
Delaware corporation (“ZIOPHARM”), and INTREXON CORPORATION, a Virginia corporation (“INTREXON”). ZIOPHARM and INTREXON are referenced herein collectively as the “LICENSEE”.  

RECITALS 
 A.
UTMDACC (represented by THE BOARD OF REGENTS (“BOARD”) of the SYSTEM, an agency of the State of Texas), INTREXON and ZIOPHARM are parties to that certain LICENSE AGREEMENT, dated January 13, 2015 (such agreement, the
“LICENSE AGREEMENT”, and such date, the “LICENSE EFFECTIVE DATE”);  
 B. Pursuant to and in
accordance with Section 5.1 of the LICENSE AGREEMENT, LICENSEE acquired the rights to the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS (as defined in the LICENSE AGREEMENT), and UTMDACC agreed to transfer such TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS to LICENSEE
promptly after the LICENSE EFFECTIVE DATE; 
 C. ZIOPHARM agreed to fund certain research and development activities at UTMDACC for a
period of three (3) years under Section 5.2 of the LICENSE AGREEMENT;  
 D. The parties desire to further specify
the scope and process for the initial transfer of the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS by UTMDACC to LICENSEE, as well as the terms and conditions governing the subsequent collaborative research and development of the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS and
NEW RESEARCH PROGRAMS (as defined in Section 2 below), including the funding of certain of such research and development activities at UTMDACC by ZIOPHARM, all under this AGREEMENT. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises herein contained, the parties agree as follows: 

1. TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS 

1.1 EXISTING PROGRAMS. Pursuant to and in accordance with Section 5.1 of the LICENSE AGREEMENT, LICENSEE acquired
the rights to the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS existing as of the LICENSE EFFECTIVE DATE. The parties acknowledge and agree that MDA15-085 (CD123 Leukemia by  

  
 1 

 
Sleeping Beauty Modified T Cells Expressing Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs)) and MDA15-097 (Combinations of VH and VL From Different Monoclonal Antibodies To Generate Chimeric Antigen
Receptors) are part of the LICENSED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY licensed to INTREXON under and subject to the LICENSE AGREEMENT. The parties further acknowledge such TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS have progressed after the LICENSE EFFECTIVE DATE, and
such TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS existing as of the EFFECTIVE DATE are specified and set forth on EXHIBIT A of this AGREEMENT (the “EXISTING PROGRAMS”). Promptly after the EFFECTIVE DATE, UTMDACC shall transfer to the
LICENSEE the EXISTING PROGRAMS pursuant to the transfer plan attached to this AGREEMENT as EXHIBIT B (the “TRANSFER PLAN”) and in connection with such transfer UTMDACC will provide to the LICENSEE all clinical and
pre-clinical information regarding the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS including, without limitation, all clinical protocols; regulatory files; safety information; all related materials and compositions, and budgets, provided, however,
that the TRANSFER PLAN and MD Anderson’s obligations to transfer and deliver items under the TRANSFER PLAN are conditioned upon MD Anderson owning such items and/or having the right to transfer and deliver such items and therefore are
subject to (i) compliance with all APPLICABLE LAWS, including HIPAA, and MD Anderson will have no obligation to deliver or transfer any items if such transfer or delivery would violate any APPLICABLE LAW, including HIPAA, but where regulatory
requirements require MD Anderson to retain original documents, MD Anderson will provide LICENSEE with copies or electronic copies of such documents, (ii) the rights (including copyright) of third parties and MD Anderson will have no obligation
to reproduce, deliver or transfer any items if such transfer or delivery would conflict with or infringe the rights of any third party or breach any contractual obligation, and (iii) the informed consents of patients and study subjects and MD
Anderson will have no obligation to deliver or transfer any items if such transfer or delivery is not permitted by an informed consent, but at LICENSEE’S request MD Anderson will seek an IRB waiver to allow the transfer of any restricted item.
In connection with such transfer, the parties shall carry out the activities in the TRANSFER PLAN in a collaborative and expeditious manner to minimize the interruption or delay of the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS. Without limiting the foregoing,
UTMDACC shall expeditiously input and process certain documentation, data, results, electronic files, cell lines, molecular constructs, and reports in connection with such transfer in accordance with the output, format and form set forth in the
TRANSFER PLAN, and provide LICENSEE with reasonable assistance and make its technical personnel reasonably available to LICENSEE, in each case as set forth in the TRANSFER PLAN. The costs and expenses incurred by UTMDACC in connection with its
activities under the TRANSFER PLAN (including the personnel and per copy costs of making copies) shall be deemed “INITIAL TRANSFER COSTS” and funded by ZIOPHARM in accordance with Section 5 below. 

1.2 ONGOING PROGRAMS. Each of INTREXON, UTMDACC and ZIOPHARM will: (a) collaborate with respect to the research,
development, regulatory, manufacture and other activities in connection with the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS pursuant to a development plan to be prepared by the JSC (as defined in 

  
 2 

 
Section 3.1(B)(1) below) and agreed upon by the parties as soon as practicable after the EFFECTIVE DATE, which may be amended from time to time by the parties (all such programs, the
“ONGOING PROGRAMS”, and such development plan, the “ONGOING PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN”); (b) conduct the activities assigned to it with respect to such ONGOING PROGRAMS in the ONGOING PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN;
and (c) furnish the facilities, know-how, materials, compositions and technical skills in connection with such activities, as set forth in the ONGOING PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN. The costs and expenses incurred by UTMDACC in connection with its
activities under the Development Plan (as defined in Section 3.1(A) below), either at UTMDACC or in collaboration with a third party, in each case in furtherance of the ONGOING PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN, shall be deemed “ONGOING PROGRAM
DEVELOPMENT COSTS” and funded by ZIOPHARM in accordance with Section 5. For clarity and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this AGREEMENT, UTMDACC’s agreement or consent shall only be required for the portion of the
ONGOING RESEARCH PROGRAM that constitutes UTMDACC RESEARCH ACTIVITIES (as defined in Section 3.1) or UTMDACC CLINICAL TRIAL (as defined in Section 3.3), and shall not be required for other programs and activities, including those conducted
by LICENSEE or their third party collaborators, even though such activities may be conducted in the LEASED FACILITY. 
 2. NEW RESEARCH PROGRAMS. In
addition to the ONGOING PROGRAMS, each of INTREXON, UTMDACC and ZIOPHARM will: (a) collaborate with respect to the research, development, regulatory, manufacture and other activities in connection with certain new research and development
programs pursuant to development plans to be prepared by the JSC and agreed upon by the parties from time to time after the EFFECTIVE DATE, which development plans may be amended from time to time by the parties. Such programs will be referred to as
the “NEW RESEARCH PROGRAM”. The NEW RESEARCH PROGRAMS and the ONGOING PROGRAMS will be collectively referred to as the “RESEARCH PROGRAMS.” The development plans for the NEW RESEARCH PROGRAMS will be referred to as
the “NEW PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN”, and the NEW PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN and the ONGOING PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN will be collectively referred to as a “DEVELOPMENT PLAN”; (b) conduct the activities assigned to
it with respect to such NEW RESEARCH PROGRAMS in the NEW PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN; and (iii) furnish the facilities, know-how, materials, compositions and technical skills in connection with such activities, as set forth in the NEW PROGRAM
DEVELOPMENT PLAN. Each NEW PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN will detail the conduct of activities assigned to the parties with respect to such NEW RESEARCH PROGRAM and any related development plans, including the responsibilities with respect to facilities,
know-how, and technical skills. Each DEVELOPMENT PLAN shall also include a schedule including the timing and responsibilities with respect to transition from a RESEARCH PROGRAM to a CLINICAL TRIAL. The costs and expenses incurred by UTMDACC in
connection with its activities under the DEVELOPMENT PLAN, either at UTMDACC or in collaboration with a third party, in each case in furtherance of the NEW RESEARCH PROGRAMS shall be deemed “NEW PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT COSTS” (and
together with the ONGOING PROGRAM

 DEVELOPMENT
COSTS, the “DEVELOPMENT COSTS”) and funded by ZIOPHARM in accordance with Section 5. For clarity and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this AGREEMENT, UTMDACC’s agreement or consent shall only be required for the
portion of the NEW RESEARCH PROGRAM that constitutes UTMDACC RESEARCH ACTIVITIES (as defined in Section 3.1), and shall not be required for other programs and activities, including those conducted by LICENSEE or their third party collaborators,
even though such activities may be conducted in the LEASED FACILITY. 
 3. CONDUCT OF RESEARCH PROGRAMS. 

3.1 THE JSC; PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR; GOVERNANCE. (A) (1) For and on behalf of LICENSEE, the JSC or its
designee(s) will direct the activities and oversee the DEVELOPMENT COSTS for the RESEARCH PROGRAMS, and may reasonably delegate such responsibilities to one or more delegate(s) approved by the LICENSEE. Subject to UTMDACC’s conflict of interest
policies, one or more principal investigator(s) within UTMDACC for the performance of the non-clinical and clinical activities under RESEARCH PROGRAMS or subsets thereof shall be appointed as follows. If as of the Effective Date any existing study
under the RESEARCH PROGRAMS does not have an assigned principal investigator, then within thirty (30) days after the EFFECTIVE DATE, the JSC shall nominate one (1) principal investigator to lead the non-clinical portion of the RESEARCH
PROGRAM and one (1) or more principal investigator(s) for the ONGOING CLINICAL TRIALS for UTMDACC’s approval. Such principal investigators so nominated by the JSC and approved by the UTMDACC shall be deemed “PRINCIPAL
INVESTIGATORS”. In the event UTMDACC decides not to approve any of such nominees by JSC, it shall notify the JSC of such decision and the reasons therefor, and the JSC may nominate a different individual to UTMDACC for its approval. The
parties shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to appoint such PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS within [***] ([***]) days after the initial nomination by the JSC. For clarity, LICENSEE shall have the sole discretion to engage any principal
investigator(s) outside UTMDACC. If for any reason any PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR at UTMDACC becomes unavailable or cannot conduct or complete any of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS assigned to such PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR, UTMDACC shall promptly notify LICENSEE
in writing. UTMDACC in conjunction with the JSC will propose a successor to assume the roles and responsibilities of such PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR, and LICENSEE shall have the right to accept or reject the appointment of such successor at its sole
discretion. In the event LICENSEE accepts such new appointment, such successor shall become a “PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR” and, at LICENSEE’s request, the parties will discuss and amend the applicable DEVELOPMENT PLAN as necessary,
taking into consideration the expertise and capacity of such new appointment. If LICENSEE rejects the appointment of such proposed successor, then LICENSEE will have the right to terminate the RESEARCH PROGRAMS assigned to such PRINCIPAL
INVESTIGATOR. The activities of all the RESEARCH PROGRAMS to be conducted by UTMDACC through its faculty employees and/or staff employees shall be referred to as the “UTMDACC RESEARCH ACTIVITIES.”

SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 24B-2
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED. 

 
  

(2) The parties acknowledge the complexity associated with the transfer, reallocation and/or re-characterization of certain rights and
responsibilities in the RESEARCH PROGRAMS, and agree to use commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure minimal interruption and/or delay of the EXISTING PROGRAMS and/or ONGOING PROGRAMS in their decision making, project management, facility,
space and other resource allocation in connection with the conduct of the collaboration under this AGREEMENT. With respect to any matter under this AGREEMENT that requires the agreement of the parties, each party’s JSC member(s) shall be
responsible for obtaining the expeditious and high priority review within such party. 
 (B) (1) The parties will establish a joint steering committee
(“JSC”), which will be responsible for management and oversight of all aspects of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS. Each party will retain the rights, powers and discretion granted to it under this AGREEMENT and no such rights, powers, or
discretion will be delegated to or vested in the JSC unless such delegation or vesting of rights is expressly provided for in this AGREEMENT or the parties expressly so agree in writing. The JSC will not have the power to amend, modify or waive
compliance with this AGREEMENT. 
 (2) ZIOPHARM and INTREXON shall each have two (2) members of the JSC, and UTMDACC shall have one
(1) member. The initial members of the JSC will be designated by the parties within [***] ([***]) days of the EFFECTIVE DATE. The JSC may elect to include additional members subject to approval of the JSC. The chair of the JSC will be one of
the representatives of ZIOPHARM. Each party may remove and fill vacancies for the JSC representatives that it appoints. If a member of the JSC is unable to attend a meeting, he or she may appoint, in writing, a proxy to participate and vote in his
or her stead, provided that such proxy has the equivalent scientific and medical expertise and the authority to make decisions with respect to the applicable portion of the RESEARCH PROGRAM during such meeting. Non-voting members of the JSC may be
invited to attend to facilitate decision-making and administration, provided that such non-voting member is bound by written obligation of confidentiality at least as stringent as those contained in this Agreement. 

(3) Each member of the JSC shall be entitled to [***] ([***]) vote on all matters subject to the determination of the JSC. Decisions of the
JSC will be reached by a [***] vote, provided, however, that no action may lawfully be taken at any meeting unless at least one representative of each party (including for this purpose any proxy representative appointed as
provided below) is present at the meeting, provided that each party will ensure that at least one representative of such party (or its proxy representative) is present at each regular and/or special JSC meeting properly called to action. 

(4) The JSC shall: (a) define and develop strategies to accomplish the objectives of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS, (b) subject to the
agreement of UTMDACC with respect to any UTMDACC RESEARCH ACTIVITIES, approve NEW RESEARCH PROGRAM(S) and related project agreement(s), including any material changes thereto, (c) subject to the agreement of UTMDACC and available funding with
respect to any UTMDACC RESEARCH ACTIVITIES, determine appropriate facilities and staffing for each RESEARCH PROGRAM(S) and such other resources as may be needed to carry 

  
 5 

 
out each RESEARCH PROGRAM, (d) monitor progress and expenditures for each RESEARCH PROGRAM, and (e) seek to resolve any disputes between the parties relating to any RESEARCH PROGRAM.

 (5) The JSC may establish and delegate authority granted to it under this AGREEMENT to such other committees, teams, groups or auditors
as it deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the responsibilities of the JSC with respect to any RESEARCH PROGRAM including the safe, effective and efficient conduct of related or supporting project; provided, however, that the JSC will
remain ultimately responsible for management and oversight of all RESEARCH PROGRAMS notwithstanding any such delegation. 
 (6) The JSC may
meet in such a manner and at such intervals as it deems appropriate, but not less frequently than six (6) times per year, provided, however, that in-person meetings shall take place in Houston, Texas, unless otherwise agreed by UTMDACC
and LICENSEE. For clarity the JSC is not required to hold any in-person meetings. The chair of the JSC shall circulate the agenda for each meeting at least two (2) business days in advance and shall preside at each meeting (either by himself or
herself, or through his or her designee). 
 (7) The JSC shall keep written minutes of its meetings which shall reflect its actions and
decisions. The intent of the parties is that minutes shall be agreed and signed by a JSC representative of each party within fourteen (14) calendar days following the applicable JSC decision. 

(8) At least quarterly, the JSC shall prepare for any RESEARCH PROGRAM that were conducted in the prior quarter or that are then underway, a
written status report detailing achievements, progress against objectives and timelines and a statement of actual versus budgeted expenditures. From time to time during the course of any RESEARCH PROGRAM, each party, upon reasonable request, will
provide the other parties and the JSC with a written summary of the results of its activities related to that RESEARCH PROGRAM, and, if determined to be appropriate by the JSC, a final written report within thirty (30) days of the completion or
termination of the applicable RESEARCH PROGRAM. All reports submitted under this Section will describe the activities taken in furtherance of the RESEARCH PROGRAM by the reporting party, any results achieved and any sole or joint intellectual
property conceived, reduced to practice, developed or created in connection with or in performance of the RESEARCH PROGRAM by the reporting party, in the level of detail and format agreed by the JSC. The JSC shall also have the right to supervise,
monitor and provide input with respect to the acceptable clinical trial reporting with respect to each CLINICAL TRIAL, including but not limited to: reporting on regulatory interactions, CMC - Batch Records, Translational data, regular clinical
reports, IBD, and access to IND copies. 
 (9) To the extent reasonably practicable, UTMDACC shall notify and consult with LICENSEE prior to
taking any administrative action that would adversely affect, delay and/or discontinue any activities under any RESEARCH PROGRAM (including any UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIALS, as defined below). UTMDACC

  
 6 

 
shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to conclude any such action in a manner sufficient to resume any adversely affected, delayed or discontinued activities as rapidly as reasonably
possible. In the event the conduct of a so affected RESEARCH PROGRAM has not been resumed within thirty (30) days following the initiation of a delay, ZIOPHARM, upon delivery of written notice to UTMDACC, shall be relieved from its obligation
to fund such RESEARCH PROGRAM at UTMDACC (and such amount will be deducted from ZIOPHARM’s total funding obligation under Article 5) during the continued period of delay. The parties acknowledge that the foregoing provision shall not apply to a
discontinuation of a RESEARCH PROGRAM due to the implementation of a PERMISSIBLE DEVIATION, as defined in Section 3.3 below. 

3.2 PERFORMANCE AND CONTROL OF RESEARCH PROGRAMS. UTMDACC and the PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS shall conduct the UTMDACC
RESEARCH ACTIVITIES in accordance with the DEVELOPMENT PLAN and in accordance with all APPLICABLE LAWS (as defined in the LICENSE AGREEMENT). In addition, at LICENSEE’s request and cost, UTMDACC shall, in a timely manner, reasonably cooperate
with LICENSEE and provide LICENSEE with reasonable assistance in connection with the preparation, filing and maintenance of regulatory filings and documentations, including documentation relating to the manufacturing activities conducted by UTMDACC
under this AGREEMENT. With the exception of CLINICAL TRIALS (as defined in Section 3.3(A) below), and to the extent reasonably practicable, UTMDACC and the PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS shall segregate and treat as confidential under Section 15
of this AGREEMENT the conduct and records of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS from those of any other work performed by or in the laboratories or other facilities of UTMDACC, provided that, among other things, UTMDACC and PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS shall not be
required to establish any separate patient medical record system for any CLINICAL TRIALS conducted as part of the RESEARCH PROGRAM. UTMDACC shall not utilize any other third party funding in connection with the conduct of any of the activities under
the RESEARCH PROGRAMS, including but not limited to government grants or personnel paid by such third party funding, without the express prior written approval of LICENSEE. 

3.3 CLINICAL STUDIES WITHIN THE RESEARCH PROGRAMS. (A) The parties agree that UTMDACC shall continue to be the
regulatory sponsor for all clinical trials within the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS that are ongoing as of the EFFECTIVE DATE (the “ONGOING TRIALS”) and shall continue to be the holder of the IND(s) for such ONGOING TRIALS unless
otherwise decided by the JSC and in such event UTMDACC shall reasonably cooperate in the transition process in compliance with all APPLICABLE LAWS. UTMDACC shall conduct such ONGOING TRIALS (as well as any related long term follow-ups, animal
studies and laboratory-based protocols as set forth in the TRANSFER PLAN and DEVELOPMENT PLAN) with one (1) or more LICENSEE-approved PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS in accordance with the terms and conditions of this AGREEMENT (including the ONGOING
PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN) and in compliance with all APPLICABLE LAWS. LICENSEE shall have the right to approve appropriate PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR(S) for CLINICAL TRIALS such that all funding 

  
 7 

 
directed to such CLINICAL TRIALS shall not create fiscal or other conflicts of interest. In addition, such funding shall be accounted for as incurred for clinical work. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event any of the parties desires to initiate any new clinical trial within the TRANSFERRED RESEARCH PROGRAMS or the NEW RESEARCH PROGRAMS, ZIOPHARM (either by itself or through its designee) shall have the first right to assume the
role of the regulatory sponsor for each such new clinical trial and the holder of the IND for such new clinical trial (each, a “NEW CLINICAL TRIAL” and together with the ONGOING TRIALS, the “CLINICAL TRIALS”). If
ZIOPHARM elects not to assume such regulatory sponsorship, then UTMDACC may do so as agreed by the parties (the party that assumes the role of regulatory sponsor for a CLINICAL TRIAL is referred to as the “SPONSOR”). Each CLINICAL
TRIAL for which UTMDACC is the SPONSOR shall be deemed a “UTMDACC CLINICAL TRIAL” and each CLINICAL TRIAL for which ZIOPHARM or a designee of ZIOPHARM is the SPONSOR shall be deemed a “ZIOPHARM CLINICAL TRIAL.”
UTMDACC CLINICAL TRIALS and ZIOPHARM CLINICAL TRIALS conducted at UTMDACC as a clinical trial site are collectively referred to as “UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIALS”).” If UTMDACC or LICENSEE desires to: (1) change the
PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR for any UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL , (2) modify or change the protocol(s), IND(s), Appendix M documents for IBC submission, or the enrollment criteria of any UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIALS, or (3) conduct any
UTMDACC CLINICAL TRIALS at sites other than UTMDACC, then the requesting party shall first notify the other party(ies) in writing and the parties will discuss in good faith the manner in which such additional activities shall be conducted, including
whether ZIOPHARM (either by itself or through its designee) is to assume the role of regulatory sponsor for such additional activities. For clarity, ZIOPHARM shall have the sole responsibility and discretion to conduct any and all ZIOPHARM CLINICAL
TRIALS that are not UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIALS. ZIOPHARM shall also be permitted to assign informational ZIOPHARM clinical research associate(s) at its cost to monitor any UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIALS, provided such clinical research
associate(s) will be subject to all written guidelines, policies, procedures, rules, and regulations, including all premises rules, applicable to UTMDACC facilities and will be subject to an obligation of confidentiality consistent with the
obligations of confidentiality required of LICENSEE hereunder. The parties agree that the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the conduct at UTMDACC of any portion of any ONGOING TRIALS and/or NEW CLINICAL TRIALS that is a
UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL under this Section 3.3 shall be deemed DEVELOPMENT COSTS, regardless of whether UTMDACC is the SPONSOR or holds the IND(s) for such trials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL,
UTMDACC may implement any deviations from a protocol that are required by APPLICABLE LAW or the IRB, or that are necessary to protect the safety, rights or welfare of study subjects (“PERMISSIBLE DEVIATIONS”). UTMDACC will promptly
notify ZIOPHARM of any PERMISSIBLE DEVIATION in writing, including providing any necessary supporting documentation, and to the extent reasonably possible and appropriate will do so prior to implementation. If ZIOPHARM does not agree with the
implementation of any of the 

  
 8 

 
PERMISSIBLE DEVIATIONS, ZIOPHARM may immediately terminate the applicable UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL. The JSC shall review each PERMISSIBLE DEVIATION, and discuss as to whether it desires to
make any corresponding amendment to the applicable protocol. 
 (B) With regard to any UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL, UTMDACC and its medical
staff, including a PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR, shall be responsible for the conduct of the study in accordance with UTMDACC’s human subject research protection program and policies and shall ensure that such CLINICAL TRIAL does not interfere with
the clinical care of any research subjects and the treating physician will have sole authority over such clinical care, and nothing in this AGREEMENT will prevent such medical staff from taking any action which is, in the reasonable medical judgment
of such medical staff, in a research subject’s best interest. Each party is responsible for ensuring that its principal investigator with respect to any CLINICAL TRIAL and all of its employees and agents working on any such CLINICAL TRIAL are
(i) properly informed as to the procedures and other relevant information specified in and relating to the applicable CLINICAL TRIAL protocol and related agreements, and (ii) in compliance with this AGREEMENT and all APPLICABLE LAWS and
regulations including the investigator responsibilities described in 21 C.F.R. Part 312 of the regulations of the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in their performance of any activities associated with the conduct
of any CLINICAL TRIAL. 
 (C) Subject to APPLICABLE LAWS and the regulatory oversight of the applicable IRB, the parties will collaboratively and
expeditiously prepare a mutually acceptable informed consent form, any authorization or other document required under APPLICABLE LAWS, and appropriate patient recruitment materials as necessary for each UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL. All such
materials and any changes thereto will be subject to the approval of the applicable CRC, IRB, IBC, UTMDACC, and the JSC, and the parties shall implement any changes mandated by the CRC, IRB and IBC, provided, however, that
ZIOPHARM may terminate the applicable CLINICAL TRIAL immediately if it disagrees with any such mandated changes by the CRC and/or IRB and/or IBC. Subject to APPLICABLE LAWS, ZIOPHARM (either by itself or through its designee) will be responsible for
filing and maintaining these materials with any governmental authorities and for obtaining any required approvals from any governmental authorities for ZIOPHARM CLINICAL TRIALS and UTMDACC shall make such filing for any and all UTMDACC CLINICAL
TRIALS. For any and all CLINICAL TRIALS, the applicable PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR will be responsible for filing and maintaining materials related to IRB and IBC for each CLINICAL TRIAL, which materials shall be subject to the prior written approval of
ZIOPHARM. Upon approval, ZIOPHARM (either by itself or through its designee) and/or UTMDACC, as applicable, will distribute these materials to the CLINICAL TRIAL sites. The informed consent of each subject participating in a CLINICAL TRIAL will be
obtained prospectively using an IRB/EC approved informed consent process. Subject to APPLICABLE LAWS and the regulatory oversight of the applicable IRB and IBC, UTMDACC will be responsible for ensuring that each UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL is in
compliance with APPLICABLE LAWS regarding the consenting of human subjects who are participating in any such UTMDACC-

  
 9 

 
INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL, and ZIOPHARM (either by itself or through its designee) will be responsible for ensuring that each site other than UTMDACC that is participating in a ZIOPHARM CLINICAL
TRIAL is in compliance with APPLICABLE LAWS regarding the consenting of human subjects who are participating in any such ZIOPHARM CLINICAL TRIAL. 
 (D)
Subject to review and comment by LICENSEE, each UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL will be registered by UTMDACC on a public registry in a manner consistent with the requirements of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors. 

(E) Specifically, and without limiting the generality of Section 7 (D), each party agrees to prepare, maintain and retain complete, accurate, and
legible written records, accounts, notes, reports and data relating to its role in the performance of each CLINICAL TRIAL for which it is the SPONSOR (“STUDY RECORDS”). STUDY RECORDS will be retained in a safe and secure manner for
at least two (2) years following the later of (i) the approval of the relevant new drug application, (ii) withdrawal of the relevant IND and (iii) as required by APPLICABLE LAWS and regulations including FDA requirements under 21
CFR §312.57. Before UTMDACC destroys any STUDY RECORDS, UTMDACC will notify ZIOPHARM and will either transfer the STUDY RECORDS to ZIOPHARM to the extent such transfer is permitted by APPLICABLE LAWS or arrange with ZIOPHARM for the continued
maintenance of such records at an off-site storage site at ZIOPHARM’s cost and expense.  
 (F) From and after the EFFECTIVE DATE, and to
the extent permitted by APPLICABLE LAWS, ZIOPHARM (either by itself or through its designee) will be solely responsible for all IND applications and other filings required by the FDA and any other in-country regulatory submissions and approvals
(each an “RA”) required to conduct each ZIOPHARM CLINICAL TRIAL. Prior to commencement of any NEW CLINICAL TRIAL, and to the extent permitted by APPLICABLE LAWS, ZIOPHARM (either by itself or through its designee) will prepare and
submit to the appropriate governmental authorities any RAs required under the APPLICABLE LAWS. Unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties, or as otherwise directed by the JSC or to the extent otherwise required by APPLICABLE LAWS, ZIOPHARM (either
by itself or through its designee) will be the sponsor of any RA and will be responsible for satisfying all sponsor obligations and other requirements of applicable governmental authorities except for sponsor obligations for any UTMDACC-INVOLVED
CLINICAL TRIAL, which shall remain the responsibility of UTMDACC. UTMDACC agrees to cooperate with ZIOPHARM (and its designee) to provide any other documents and information required by APPLICABLE LAWS and regulations or that ZIOPHARM (or its
designee) reasonably requests in connection with the preparation, filing and maintenance of any RA.  
 (G) The JSC shall be responsible for ensuring
that all CLINICAL TRIAL investigators collect, assess and report adverse events according to the procedures outlined in the applicable CLINICAL TRIAL protocol and as required by APPLICABLE LAWS, acting through the party that is the SPONSOR of the
applicable CLINICAL TRIAL to do so. 

  
 10 

 
Each party that acts as SPONSOR of a CLINICAL TRIAL under this AGREEMENT will be responsible for the reporting of adverse events to the other parties, but in no event more than twenty-four hours
following a significant adverse event or death, and ZIOPHARM will (to the extent permitted by APPLICABLE LAWS and except as UTMDACC may otherwise be required by APPLICABLE LAWS to do so) report all such adverse events to appropriate government
authorities as required by APPLICABLE LAWS. Each party further agrees that it will, in a timely manner consistent with APPLICABLE LAWS and the terms of all applicable CLINICAL TRIAL protocols and related documents, provide LICENSEE and the other
parties hereto with all relevant information it obtains regarding the safety and/or the toxicity of any STUDY PRODUCT (as defined in Section 3.4(A)). 

(H) ZIOPHARM shall reimburse UTMDACC for the cost of providing necessary medical treatment to a study subject for any injuries directly resulting from the
administration of the STUDY PRODUCT in a CLINICAL TRIAL conducted at UTMDACC to a study subject as set forth in the applicable protocol and consent as part of his/her participation in such CLINICAL TRIAL to the extent such injury is not due to the
natural progression of the underlying disease or condition of such study subject, unless UTMDACC’s negligence or misconduct causes the injury. Any costs reimbursed by ZIOPHARM under this Section 3.3(H) shall be deemed DEVELOPMENT COSTS
under Section 5. 
 (I) UTMDACC and LICENSEE will promptly notify each other upon identifying any aspect of a UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL protocol,
including information discovered during site monitoring visits, or the study results that may adversely affect the safety, well-being, or medical care of the study subjects, or that may affect the willingness of subjects to continue participation in
such CLINICAL TRIAL, influence the conduct of such CLINICAL TRIAL, or that may alter the IBC’s and IRB’s approval to continue such CLINICAL TRIAL. For each such CLINICAL TRIAL, UTMDACC shall promptly notify the IBC and IRB of any such
events. When the safety or medical care of any study subject enrolled in such CLINICAL TRIAL could be directly affected by study results, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, UTMDACC will send such study subject a written
communication about the results. To the extent appropriate under the circumstances, any such written communication will be subject to prior, timely review and comment by LICENSEE. 

(J) (i) Unless otherwise agreed by ZIOPHARM, all UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIALS will be overseen and the results reviewed by an independent data
monitoring committee (“DMC”) established and supported and paid for by ZIOPHARM. The JSC will review and approve the DMC’s membership and procedures. ZIOPHARM will assume responsibility for setting up and supporting all DMC
meetings. The JSC will be notified of any DMC meetings. A representative from each party will be invited to attend all sessions of the DMC meetings. All DMC sessions reports related to any UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL will be made available to
the JSC.  
 (ii) ZIOPHARM will promptly determine whether to accept or reject a major DMC recommendation for a CLINICAL TRIAL such
as a recommendation to close a 

  
 11 

 
CLINICAL TRIAL. Should ZIOPHARM accept a major DMC recommendation, ZIOPHARM will promptly communicate that decision to the members of the DMC and the JSC. In the event when ZIOPHARM does not
elect to accept for implementation a major DMC recommendation, ZIOPHARM will promptly communicate that decision to the members of the DMC and the JSC with its rationale. If UTMDACC does not agree with ZIOPHARM’s decision, UTMDACC, after
consultation, as appropriate, with ZIOPHARM about alternative changes, if any, may terminate the applicable UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL, provided that UTMDACC shall notify ZIOPHARM in writing prior to such termination and, to the extent
requested by ZIOPHARM, and as permitted by and to the extent consistent with APPLICABLE LAWS, instead of terminating such UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL, transfer the trial to another site designated by ZIOPHARM. With respect to any UTMDACC
CLINICAL TRIAL, if ZIOPHARM notifies UTMDACC that it wishes to assume the SPONSORSHIP for any such UTMDACC CLINICAL TRIAL, UTMDACC shall, as permitted by and to the extent consistent with APPLICABLE LAWS, instead of terminating such UTMDACC CLINICAL
TRIAL, transfer to ZIOPHARM (or its designee) the SPONSORSHIP for any such UTMDACC CLINICAL TRIAL. The parties will work together to effect a prompt and orderly transfer of the CLINICAL TRIAL to another site and as applicable, the SPONSORSHIP for
the CLINICAL TRIAL to ZIOPHARM or its designee. For the sake of clarity, in the event of a disagreement, UTMDACC shall have no obligation to continue a UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL at UTMDACC and UTMDACC will have the right to suspend the
CLINICAL TRIAL pending the transfer of the CLINICAL TRIAL and the SPONSORSHIP as contemplated herein. 
 (K) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this AGREEMENT, UTMDACC shall take appropriate corrective action including to terminate or suspend patient enrollment for any UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL (i) for health, safety or regulatory reasons, or (ii) if a PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR
is no longer employed by UTMDACC, or (iii) if a PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR is no longer able to perform his or her obligations, or (iv) if ZIOPHARM breaches its obligations under this AGREEMENT with respect to such CLINICAL TRIAL and fails to
cure such breach within thirty (30) business days of receiving written notice from UTMDACC of such breach, provided, however, that before terminating or suspending enrollment for the UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL on the basis of (ii) or
(iii) above, at the request of ZIOPHARM, UTMDACC working with the JSC will make a good faith effort to: (a) find a substitute researcher who is ready, willing and able to assume the role of PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR and complete such
UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL and who is acceptable to ZIOPHARM; or (b) to the extent requested by ZIOPHARM, and as permitted by and to the extent consistent with APPLICABLE LAWS, instead of terminating such UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL,
transfer the trial to another site designated by ZIOPHARM and in conjunction therewith in the case of a UTMDACC CLINICAL TRIAL, transfer the SPONSORSHIP for such CLINICAL TRIAL to ZIOPHARM (or its designee).

 PROGRAMS within
ten (10) days after the EFFECTIVE DATE. Subsequently, for each quarterly advance payment made by ZIOPHARM under this Section 5.2(B), UTMDACC shall complete all administrative procedures to permit the expenditure of such payment for the
RESEARCH PROGRAM conducted at UTMDACC at the direction of the JSC within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such payment from ZIOPHARM. 
 (C) The
parties agree that the amounts set forth in such budgets will be inclusive as to: (i) all overhead cost, salaries of laboratory technicians, students, postdocs and other research workers working on the RESEARCH PROGRAMS; (ii) all costs
incurred in connection with the pre-clinical studies and clinical trials conducted as part of such RESEARCH PROGRAMS; (iii) the costs of all manufacturing process development and manufacturing activities in connection with the conduct of the
RESEARCH PROGRAMS; (iv) the costs for any regulatory activities conducted in connection with the RESEARCH PROGRAMS; and (v) the costs of all laboratory facilities, supplies and equipment and other UTMDACC resources, including any leasehold
improvements and/or payments related to the LEASE AGREEMENT to UTMDACC, necessary to perform such RESEARCH PROGRAMS. In determining the applicable rate for any overhead costs, UTMDACC shall ensure a fair and equitable characterization of the
applicable activities (as “clinical” verses “non-clinical” activities). Further, any facility-related costs (such as leasehold improvements and/or payments related to the LEASE AGREEMENT), as well as out-of-pocket costs paid to a
third party vendor, contractor and/or collaborator, shall not be subject to any overhead payment to UTMDACC. 
 (D) Within [***] ([***]) days after the end
of each calendar quarter during the TERM beginning on and after March 31, 2015, UTMDACC shall submit to ZIOPHARM a reasonably detailed written report in a form approved by ZIOPHARM setting forth the costs and expenses incurred by UTMDACC in
furtherance of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS during such prior calendar quarter in accordance with the TRANSFER PLAN, the DEVELOPMENT PLANS, and the budgets contained therein. If such costs and expenses are less than the advance payment paid by ZIOPHARM,
any remaining amount shall be carried over to the subsequent calendar quarter(s), and ZIOPHARM shall be deemed to have fulfilled its funding commitment under this Section 5.2 and Section 5.2 of the LICENSE AGREEMENT even though the actual
amount of funding spent during such calendar quarter would be less than three million and seven hundred fifty thousand dollars ($3,750,000). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and unless otherwise agreed by ZIOPHARM in writing,
ZIOPHARM shall not be required to reimburse UTMDACC for (i) any amount greater than five million dollars ($5,000,000) for any quarterly period during an INITIAL CONTRACT YEAR (other than as a result of any carry over funding from the previous
calendar quarters as set forth above), or (ii) any amount that has been incurred that is inconsistent with the TRANSFER PLAN and the DEVELOPMENT PLANS, or the budget(s) contained therein. 

(E) UTMDACC shall maintain complete and accurate records, at its own cost and expense, in sufficient detail to permit Licensee to confirm the accuracy of the

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY; INVENTIONS. 
 6.1 OWNERSHIP OF INVENTIONS. All discoveries and inventions, whether or not
patentable, that are conceived or reduced to practice in the performance of any of the DEVELOPMENT PLANS under this AGREEMENT, together with all intellectual property rights therein, shall be deemed “INVENTIONS.” UTMDACC shall
solely own all INVENTIONS solely made by employees, other agents and consultants of UTMDACC (the “UTMDACC PERSONNEL”), [***]. INTREXON shall solely own all INVENTIONS solely made by employees, other agents and consultants of either
or both LICENSEE, and [***] regardless of the [***] (the “LICENSEE PERSONNEL”). For clarity, any VISITING SCIENTIST shall be deemed an employee of LICENSEE and not UTMDACC for the purpose of determining the inventorship and
ownership of any INVENTIONS. UTMDACC and INTREXON shall jointly own all INVENTIONS made jointly by LICENSEE PERSONNEL and UTMDACC PERSONNEL [***], with each of UTMDACC on the one hand and LICENSEE on the other hand owning an undivided interest in
and to such joint INVENTIONS, with the right to practice and exploit such INVENTIONS without the duty of accounting or seeking consent from the other. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, LICENSEE shall at all times retain all
rights and interest in the LICENSEE MATERIALS. “[***]” means all [***] by a [***] or the [***] in the [***] of the [***] of any [***] and that related to the [***] or [***] of, or the [***] of [***], [***] or [***] or [***], a [***]. 

6.2 DISCLOSURE. UTMDACC agrees to notify INTREXON of any INVENTIONS solely or jointly owned by UTMDACC as promptly as
practicable, but in any event not later than forty-five (45) days, after the disclosure of such INVENTIONS is received by the UTMDACC Office of Technology Commercialization. After INTREXON’s receipt of such notice, the parties will
cooperate to investigate, evaluate and determine the disposition of rights to such INVENTIONS. 
 6.3 NON-EXCLUSIVE
LICENSE. UTMDACC hereby grants to INTREXON a non-exclusive, worldwide, fully paid, royalty-free, perpetual and irrevocable license (with the right to sublicense) under UTMDACC’s interest in any INVENTIONS to make, have made, use, sell,
offer for sale and import any products incorporating or based upon such INVENTIONS. 
 6.4 EXCLUSIVE OPTION. In
addition, UTMDACC hereby grants to INTREXON an exclusive option to acquire an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license (with the right to sublicense) under UTMDACC’s interest in any INVENTIONS, to make, use, sell, offer for sale and import
any products incorporating or based upon such INVENTIONS, subject, however, to UTMDACC’s retained right to use the INVENTION for academic, patient care and internal non-commercial research purposes (the “OPTION”). INTREXON may
exercise the OPTION for a particular INVENTION by written notice to UTMDACC within [***] ([***]) days after INTREXON’s receipt of any notice of such INVENTION from UTMDACC pursuant to Section 6.2 (the “OPTION PERIOD”). If
INTREXON fails to timely exercise its OPTION within the OPTION PERIOD with respect to any INVENTION,

IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED
SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 24B-2
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED. 

 
  

INTREXON’s right to negotiate a license agreement with respect to such INVENTION will automatically terminate, and UTMDACC will be free to
negotiate and enter into a non-exclusive license with any other party. If INTREXON timely exercises its OPTION for a particular INVENTION within the OPTION PERIOD, then UTMDACC and INTREXON shall negotiate in good faith for [***] ([***]) days
thereafter (the “NEGOTIATION PERIOD”) the terms of license agreement under which UTMDACC shall grant INTREXON an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license (with the right to sublicense) under UTMDACC’s interest in such
INVENTION to make, use, sell, offer for sale or import any products based upon or incorporating such INVENTION subject, however, to UTMDACC’s retained right to use the INVENTION for academic, patient care and internal non-commercial research
purposes. If INTREXON timely exercises such OPTION, but UTMDACC and INTREXON do not enter into a license agreement during the NEGOTIATION PERIOD, INTREXON’s right to negotiate an exclusive license agreement with respect to such INVENTION will
automatically terminate, and UTMDACC will be free to negotiate and enter into a non-exclusive license under such INVENTION with any other party. 

6.5 PATENT PROTECTION.  

(a) As between the parties, the sole owner of any INVENTION shall have the [***] to prepare, file, prosecute, maintain, enforce and
defend all U.S. and foreign Patents, registrations and other forms of intellectual property in such INVENTION but nothing herein will obligate the owner to take any such actions. As between the parties, INTREXON shall have the [***] to prepare,
file, prosecute, maintain, enforce and defend all U.S. and foreign Patents, registrations and other forms of intellectual property in any jointly-owned INVENTION using patent counsel of its choice that is subject to the written approval of UTMDACC
not to be unreasonably withheld and at the sole cost and expense of INTREXON, with accounting to UTMDACC. INTREXON shall keep UTMDACC reasonably informed of all such preparations, filings, prosecution, maintenance, enforcement and defense and shall
consider UTMDACC’s recommendations in good faith. If INTREXON elects not to file in the United States or not to maintain an application or patent arising from any jointly-owned INVENTION, INTREXON shall promptly notify UTMDACC within reasonable
time for UTMDACC to file, prosecute or maintain such application or patent, and UTMDACC shall have the right to file, prosecute or maintain such application or patent, at UTMDACC’s expense. The parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other
with respect to matters concerning jointly-owned INVENTIONS to the extent reasonably necessary for filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending or enforcing any such patents, registrations and other forms of intellectual property protection. 

(b) Upon INTREXON’s exercise of the OPTION, INTREXON shall advise UTMDACC whether it wishes UTMDACC to file and prosecute one of
more patent application(s), domestic or foreign, on any patentable INVENTION described in the notice INTREXON receives from UTMDACC under Section 6.2, or it wishes for INTREXON to do so. During the TERM, INTREXON shall pay all reasonable costs
associated with the filing and prosecution of any patent application(s) which it requests UTMDACC to file, unless and until the parties discontinue the negotiation of a license 

  
 24 

 
agreement pertaining to such INVENTION. The filing, prosecution and maintenance of any patent applications and/or patents claiming such INVENTION, once such license agreement is entered into,
shall be governed by the terms and conditions of such license agreement. UTMDACC shall use counsel reasonably acceptable to INTREXON in filing and prosecuting any application INTREXON requests UTMDACC to file under this Section 6.5, and subject
to INTREXON’s payment of all costs in connection therewith, UTMDACC agrees to file, prosecute and maintain patent applications in all countries designated by INTREXON. 

6.6 NO WAIVER. INTREXON may exercise its OPTION with respect to any single INVENTION disclosed to INTREXON pursuant to
Section 6.2, and any failure by INTREXON to exercise its OPTION or enter into a license agreement with UTMDACC with respect to any single INVENTION shall not be deemed a waiver: (a) of the non-exclusive license pursuant to
Section 6.3; or (b) of INTREXON’s right to exercise any OPTION with respect to other INVENTIONS disclosed to INTREXON pursuant to Section 6.2. 

6.7 UNIVERSITY PERSONNEL. All UNIVERSITY PERSONNEL who conduct any activities with respect to the RESEARCH PROGRAMS
shall be obligated to assign to the BOARD OF REGENTS of THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS SYSTEM all inventions and intellectual property rights arising from their work in the RESEARCH PROGRAMS in a manner that enables the BOARD and UTMDACC to grant to
INTREXON all rights UTMDACC purports to grant under this AGREEMENT. 
 7. GOVERNMENTAL COMMUNICATIONS; RECORDS AND REPORTS 

(A) Meetings with Governmental Authorities. LICENSEE will take the initiative in arranging discussions with any governmental authority involving data
from or the conduct of any RESEARCH PROGRAM or CLINICAL TRIAL. Formal meetings with governmental authorities concerning the design or data from a RESEARCH PROGRAM or CLINICAL TRIAL will be discussed and agreed upon in advance by the JSC. With the
prior written consent of LICENSEE, UTMDACC will have the right to participate in all formal meetings with governmental authorities relating to RESEARCH PROGRAM or CLINICAL TRIAL unless legally precluded from doing so. 

(B) Written Communications to Governmental Authorities. In addition to all documents otherwise required to be provided to the other party by this
AGREEMENT, the applicable RESEARCH PROGRAM, CLINICAL TRIAL and APPLICABLE LAWS, to the extent permitted by APPLICABLE LAWS each party agrees to promptly provide the other parties with a copy of all documents and other written or electronic
communications related to any RESEARCH PROGRAM or CLINICAL TRIAL which such party has submitted to any governmental authority including protocol amendments, information amendments, safety reports, annual reports, investigator reports, reports of
unanticipated problems involving risks to subjects or others, reports of serious or continuing noncompliance with APPLICABLE LAWS and regulations or the requirements of an Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC), institutional review board/ethics

it becomes aware: (i) any correspondence from any governmental authorities related to a RESEARCH PROGRAM or CLINICAL TRIAL that is received by that party, or its agents or affiliates, or by participating sites funded by that party;
(b) investigations or site visits by any governmental authorities related to a RESEARCH PROGRAM or CLINICAL TRIAL whether announced or unannounced; (c) enforcement actions by any governmental authorities related to a RESEARCH PROGRAM or
CLINICAL TRIAL; or (d) any action taken by any governmental authority regarding manufacturing of a product used in a RESEARCH PROGRAM or CLINICAL TRIAL. Each party will consult and cooperate with the other party and the JSC in responding to any
such event, including providing documents, information and access as properly requested. Information provided will be deemed CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION (as defined in Section 15) of the party providing it as long as it otherwise qualifies as
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 
 (D) Records; Reports. UTMDACC shall keep accurate financial and scientific records relating to the RESEARCH PROGRAMS and
will make such records available to LICENSEE (for review and/or copying) throughout the TERM and for three (3) years thereafter during normal administrative business hours. Each PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR will submit monthly oral reports and
quarterly written reports to LICENSEE detailing RESEARCH PROGRAMS activities and results thereof, including all data and conclusions. The PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR shall submit to LICENSEE a comprehensive final report to LICENSEE within (90) days
after this AGREEMENT expires or terminates summarizing the RESEARCH PROGRAMS accomplishments and significant findings, all INVENTIONS developed in the course of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS and any patent applications filed thereon. Subject to Sections 3.5
and 15, LICENSEE may utilize all information submitted to it pursuant to this Section 7 in any manner. 
 8. PUBLICATION.
(A) UTMDACC has the right to publish, present or otherwise publicly disclose (to persons not bound by a confidentiality agreement) the STUDY DATA generated solely by UTMDACC PERSONNEL (“DISCLOSURE”), subject to the
requirements set forth below. UTMDACC agrees to provide LICENSEE a copy of any proposed DISCLOSURE at least [***] ([***]) days prior to the earlier of submission or publication, for the LICENSEE to ascertain whether LICENSEE’s CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION would be disclosed by the DISCLOSURE and/or whether the DISCLOSURE contains potentially patentable INVENTION so that appropriate steps may be taken to protect such INVENTION. LICENSEE will provide comments on any proposed DISCLOSURE, if
any, within thirty (30) days of its receipt. If a patentable INVENTION is disclosed in an abstract, presentation, or manuscript and the owner of such INVENTION has not filed any patent applications on such INVENTION prior to the date LICENSEE
receives such manuscript, LICENSEE will promptly advise

 UTMDACC whether
it desires to file or to have filed a patent application thereon in accordance with Section 6.5. If necessary, UTMDACC shall delay submission or publication of the proposed DISCLOSURE to any third party for up to an additional [***] ([***])
days for the purpose of preparing and filing a patent application claiming any INVENTION disclosed therein. Additionally, UTMDACC shall delete from the proposed DISCLOSURE any CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of LICENSEE (excluding STUDY DATA and INVENTIONS
generated by UTMDACC PERSONNEL, either solely or jointly with LICENSEE) that LICENSEE reasonably requests UTMDACC to delete. UTMDACC hereby grants LICENSEE the option of receiving an acknowledgment in any DISCLOSURE it submits that relates to the
RESEARCH PROGRAMS. LICENSEE shall exercise such option by written notice to UTMDACC within [***] ([***]) days after receiving a proposed DISCLOSURE for review under this Section 8. The JSC shall assign responsibility for developing additional
written procedures to facilitate efficient review of scientific communications, such as abstracts, presentations and other publications. 
 (B)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, with respect to any CLINICAL TRIAL DATA resulting from a multi-center CLINICAL TRIAL, UTMDACC shall have the right to publish such CLINICAL TRIAL DATA only after the publication of the first multi-center
publication, provided, however, that, if such multicenter publication is not submitted within twenty-four (24) months after the completion, termination, or abandonment of such CLINICAL TRIAL for all such sites, then UTMDACC shall have the right
to publish on its own the CLINICAL TRIAL DATA resulting from the portion of the study conducted at UTMDACC, subject to Section 8(A). UTMDACC and LICENSEE shall publish any CLINICAL TRIAL DATA resulting from a CLINICAL TRIAL in which UTMDACC is
the sole clinical trial site jointly, provided, however, that, if such joint publication is not submitted within twenty-four (24) months after the completion, termination, or abandonment of such CLINICAL TRIAL, then UTMDACC shall have the right
to publish on its own the CLINICAL TRIAL DATA resulting from the study, subject to Section 8(A). “CLINICAL TRIAL DATA” means all data and results generated by UTMDACC in a UTMDACC-INVOLVED CLINICAL TRIAL. 

(C) UTMDACC acknowledges that both of the LICENSEES are public companies and as such, are subject to certain disclosure requirements and other rules and
regulations promulgated by the SEC and/or any stock exchange). As a result, other than the right to publish STUDY DATA in accordance with this Section 8(A) and Section 8(B), UTMDACC agrees that it will not make any public statements
regarding any STUDY DATA or any aspect of the RESEARCH PROGRAM that may be construed as the disclosure of material non-public information, without first consulting with LICENSEES and obtaining LICENSEES’ prior written approval to do so.

 27 

 9.2 TERMINATION FOR MATERIAL BREACH. Either LICENSEE or UTMDACC may
terminate this AGREEMENT for any material breach of this AGREEMENT by the other party, if such breach is not cured within sixty (60) days after the breaching party receives written notice of such breach by the non-breaching party. Such
termination shall be effective upon expiration of such sixty (60) day period. 
 9.3 EFFECT OF TERMINATION.

 12.1 INDEMNIFICATION BY LICENSEE. Each of INTREXON and ZIOPHARM severally, but not jointly, hereby agrees to
indemnify, hold harmless, and subject to the statutory duties of the Texas Attorney General, defend UTMDACC, SYSTEM, and BOARD, and their respective regents, officers, employees, agents and affiliates (collectively, the “UTMDACC
INDEMNITEES”) from any third party damage, loss, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of litigation) (collectively “LOSSES”) incurred by or imposed upon any of the UTMDACC INDEMNITEES in
connection with any claims, suits, actions, demands, or judgments (collectively, “CLAIMS”) arising out of or connected with (i) LICENSEE’s activities under this AGREEMENT or the RESEARCH PROGRAMS performed by LICENSEE
under this AGREEMENT, (ii) the personal injury (including death) or property damage arising out of or connected with a defect in the design or manufacture of the STUDY PRODUCTS, including LICENSEE’s failure to manufacture and provide the
STUDY PRODUCTS in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practices; (iii) the use by LICENSEE of any of the STUDY DATA or STUDY SPECIMENS; or (iv) the gross negligence or intentional misconduct or unlawful act or omission by LICENSEE or a

AGREEMENT. 
 15. CONFIDENTIALITY.  

15.1 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. UTMDACC (including the PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR) and LICENSEE may reveal to each other in
the course of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS certain confidential information. UTMDACC and LICENSEE agree to hold in confidence, not use, and not disclose to any third party, any confidential information which one party (the “RECEIVING
PARTY”) obtains from the other party (the “DISCLOSING PARTY”) during the course of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS (collectively, “CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION”), except as permitted by this AGREEMENT (including the
performance of its obligations and the exercise of its rights hereunder) or otherwise with the express written consent of the DISCLOSING PARTY. The obligations of confidentiality, non-use and non-disclosure under this Section 15 shall remain in
force for a period of five (5) years following the 

  
 32 

 
disclosure of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. All INVENTIONS made by UTMDACC shall be deemed CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of all parties, and each party shall be deemed a DISCLOSING PARTY and a
RECEIVING PARTY to such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, subject, however, to the right of UTMDACC to publish in accordance with Section 8 and the right of UTMDACC to timely pursue patent protection for any such INVENTION. 

15.2 PERMITTED DISCLOSURE. The RECEIVING PARTY may disclose CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION: 

(a) to its employees, other agents or consultants (including public members of its scientific or institutional review boards) on a
need-to-know basis, provided, however, that such employees, other agents or consultants are bound by obligations of non-use and nondisclosure with respect to such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION at least as stringent as those provided in this
AGREEMENT. In addition, LICENSEE shall have the right to disclose CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of UTMDACC to its affiliates and actual or potential licensees, sublicensees, consultants, agents, contractors, acquirers and/or investors, in connection with
its exercise of the rights and fulfillment of the obligations under this AGREEMENT or the LICENSE AGREEMENT. Each party shall ensure that all employees, agents, or consultants of such party engaged in the performance of the RESEARCH PROGRAMS (in the
case of UTMDACC, including the PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR), shall be subject to obligations of confidentiality and non-use consistent with the obligations of confidentiality and non-use contained herein. 

(b) to the extent necessary in order to obtain informed consent from patients or subjects who may wish to enroll in a CLINICAL TRIAL,
provided, however, that the information will be disclosed only to the extent necessary and will not be provided in answer to unsolicited inquiries by telephone or to individuals who are not eligible study candidates. 

(c) to study subjects for the safety or well-being of the study subject. 

15.3 EXCEPTIONS. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION will not include and the obligations of confidentiality and non-use contained
in this Section will not apply to information which: 
 (a) Is in the public domain as of the EFFECTIVE DATE or comes into the
public domain during the TERM through no wrongful act of the RECEIVING PARTY; or 
 (b) Is known by the RECEIVING PARTY prior to the
execution of this AGREEMENT or prior to the disclosure of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION to the RECEIVING PARTY, as evidenced by the RECEIVING PARTY’s written records; or 

  
 33 

 (c) Is rightfully received by the RECEIVING PARTY after disclosure under this AGREEMENT
from a third party without a binding obligation of confidentiality to the DISCLOSING PARTY with respect to such information; or 
 (d)
Is independently invented by an employee of the RECEIVING PARTY who did not have use of or have actual access to the information provided to the RECEIVING PARTY hereunder; or 

(e) Is required to be disclosed by law or regulation, provided, however, that to the extent reasonably practicable the
RECEIVING PARTY provides advance notice of the legally required disclosure to the DISCLOSING PARTY so that the DISCLOSING PARTY may seek to obtain confidential treatment of such information to the extent available under such law or regulation. 

15.4 PHI. If LICENSEE comes into knowledge or possession of any “PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION” (as such term is
defined under HIPAA) by or through UTMDACC or any information that could be used to identify any of UTMDACC’s patients or research subjects, then in accordance with APPLICABLE LAWS as applicable to UTMDACC, LICENSEE shall maintain in strict
confidence and not use or disclose any such PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION or other legally private information; shall use any such PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION or other legally private information solely as permitted by APPLICABLE LAWS and the
informed consent/authorization of the patient/research subject, and shall not use or disclose any such PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION or other legally private information in any manner that would constitute a violation of any APPLICABLE LAWS if such
use or disclosure was made by UTMDACC. 
 16. FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party will be liable for any failure to perform as required by this AGREEMENT,
if the failure to perform is caused by circumstances beyond such party’s reasonable control, such as labor disturbances or labor disputes of any kind, accidents, failure of either party to obtain any governmental approval required for full
performance, civil disorders or commotions, acts of aggression, acts of God, energy or other conservation measures, explosions, failure of utilities, mechanical breakdowns, material shortages, disease, thefts, or other such occurrences; provided,
however, that such affected party shall use reasonable efforts to overcome such circumstances. 
 17. MISCELLANEOUS. 

17.1 ASSIGNMENT. No party may assign this AGREEMENT without the prior written consent of the other parties, such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that each of ZIOPHARM and INTREXON may assign the AGREEMENT in connection with a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of such party’s stock or assets to
which this AGREEMENT relates. 
 17.2 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this AGREEMENT becomes or is declared illegal,
invalid, or unenforceable, such provision will be separable from this 

  
 34 

 
AGREEMENT and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. If such separation substantially alters the basis of this AGREEMENT, the parties will negotiate in good faith to
amend the provisions of this AGREEMENT to give effect to the original intent of the parties. 
 17.3 INDEPENDENT
CONTRACTORS. The activities contemplated by this AGREEMENT do not constitute a partnership, joint venture, or separate legal entity, but a contractual relationship. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, each party will act as an independent
contractor with respect to the other parties and no party will have authority to act on behalf of or bind the other party without the written agreement of the party to be bound. 

17.4 LICENSEE ACTIONS. In the event this AGREEMENT calls for the decision, consent, approval or other action of the
LICENSEE, such action shall be taken in accordance with the consensus position of both INTREXON and ZIOPHARM, which position shall take into account the obligations of each party under the LICENSE AGREEMENT as well as any other contractual
arrangements to which INTREXON and ZIOPHARM are party. Decisions and actions of LICENSEE at the JSC shall be made in conformity with any related decisions made by and between INTREXON and ZIOPHARM pursuant to any other joint steering or other
committee to which they are both party 
 17.5 GOVERNING LAW. This AGREEMENT will be construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the United States of America and of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. The Texas State Courts of Harris County, Texas (or, if there is exclusive federal jurisdiction, the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Texas) shall have exclusive jurisdiction and venue over any dispute arising out of this AGREEMENT, and LICENSEE consents to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts and hereby explicitly waives the rights
to any other venue to which it might be entitled by cause of action, domicile or otherwise. Nothing in this AGREEMENT shall be deemed as a waiver by BOARD, SYSTEM or UTMDACC of its sovereign immunity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent
that Chapter 2260, Texas Government Code, as it may be amended from time to time (“CHAPTER 2260”), is applicable to this AGREEMENT, LICENSEE acknowledges and agrees that the dispute resolution process provided for in CHAPTER 2260
shall be LICENSEE’s sole and exclusive process for seeking a remedy for any and all alleged breaches of the AGREEMENT by BOARD and/or UTMDACC or the State of Texas. 

17.6 TEXAS STATE AGENCY. UTMDACC, as an agency of the State of Texas and a member institution of The University of Texas
System, is subject to the constitution and laws of the State of Texas and, under the constitution and laws of the State of Texas, possesses certain rights and privileges, is subject to certain limitations and restrictions, and only has such
authority as is granted under the constitution and laws of the State of Texas. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, nothing in this AGREEMENT is intended to be, nor shall it be construed to be, a waiver of the sovereign immunity of
the State of Texas or a prospective waiver or restriction of any of the rights, remedies, claims, and privileges of the State of Texas. Moreover, 

  
 35 

 
notwithstanding the generality or specificity of any provision of this AGREEMENT, the provisions of this AGREEMENT as they pertain to UTMDACC are enforceable only to the extent authorized by the
constitution and laws of the State of Texas. No party to this AGREEMENT will be required to perform any act or to refrain from any act that would violate any APPLICABLE LAWS, including the constitution and laws of the State of Texas. 

17.7 ENTIRE AGREEMENT; CONFLICTS. This AGREEMENT, together with Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto, represent the
entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes any prior and/or contemporaneous discussions, representations, or agreements, whether written or oral, of the parties regarding the subject
matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this AGREEMENT and the LICENSE AGREEMENT, the terms of this AGREEMENT shall govern. 

17.8 AMENDMENTS. Amendments or changes to this AGREEMENT shall be valid and binding only if in writing and signed by
duly authorized representatives of the parties. No provision of this AGREEMENT can be waived except by the express written consent of the party waiving compliance. 

17.9 COUNTERPARTS. This AGREEMENT may be executed in one or more counterparts, which shall together constitute the same
legal instrument.

 EXHIBIT C 

VISITING SCIENTIST PROVISIONS 
  

	1.0	LICENSEE may assign one or more scientists that are employee(s) of Licensee to work on the RESEARCH PROGRAM on-site at UTMDACC’s facilities (the “VISITING SCIENTISTS”). The number and identity of
the VISITING SCIENTISTS may be proposed by PROGRAM FACILITATOR and are subject to the reasonable approval of UTMDACC. 

  

	2.0	The VISITING SCIENTISTS may use UTMDACC’s facilities only for purposes of collaborating with UTMDACC in the RESEARCH PROGRAMS, unless otherwise agreed by UTMDACC. 

 

	3.0	The VISITING SCIENTIST(s) are LICENSEE employees and will report to a LICENSEE supervisor/manager, and LICENSEE is solely responsible for all salary, compensation, benefits and related costs associated with the VISITING
SCIENTISTS. Accordingly, LICENSEE is responsible for issuing payroll checks to the VISITING SCIENTISTS; for making appropriate payroll deductions for the VISITING SCIENTISTS, as required by APPLICABLE LAWS and authorized by the VISITING SCIENTISTS;
for paying the appropriate amount of all federal, state, and local taxes with respect to all compensation and benefits paid and provided to the VISITING SCIENTISTS; and for filing all appropriate and applicable forms for tax purposes. Moreover,
either LICENSEE or the VISITING SCIENTISTS is responsible for the VISITING SCIENTISTS’ relocation and travel to and from Houston, as well as for any and all housing, transportation, parking, meals, and/or other personal needs of the VISITING
SCIENTISTS while working at UTMDACC. Because the VISITING SCIENTISTS are not employees of UTMDACC and are instead employees of LICENSEE working on behalf of LICENSEE, the VISITING SCIENTISTS will not receive any salary, compensation, financial
remuneration, benefits, and/or fringe benefits from UTMDACC, and in particular, the VISITING SCIENTISTS will not assign their interest in any INVENTIONS to UTMDACC, and will not receive from UTMDACC any portion of any royalties or proceeds resulting
from any INVENTIONS made by the VISITING SCIENTISTS while working as VISITING SCIENTISTS at UTMDACC. 

  

	4.0	 Subject to availability and UTMDACC’s space needs, UTMDACC will provide, at LICENSEE’s expense, a separate office for the VISITING
SCIENTISTS at UTMDACC. Each such office will have a separate telephone line (either LICENSEE or the VISITING SCIENTIST is responsible for long distance phone charges), intranet and high-speed internet access, as well as appropriate keys, badges, and
parking privileges (subject to the VISITING SCIENTISTS paying any existing parking rates) that will allow the VISITING SCIENTISTS to work under substantially the same conditions as UTMDACC employees with whom the VISITING SCIENTISTS work. UTMDACC
may re-allocate, substitute, replace, 

  
 41 

	 	
modify and/or terminate the resources and space made available to the VISITING SCIENTISTS while working at UTMDACC as UTMDACC may reasonably determine from time to time. 

 

	5.0	The VISITING SCIENTISTS will be subject to and must abide by all UTMDACC written guidelines, policies, procedures, rules, and regulations, including all premises rules applicable to UTMDACC facilities. UTMDACC may:

  

	 	i)	arrange for emergency health care for a VISITING SCIENTIST, if needed, while the VISITING SCIENTIST is on-site at UTMDACC, but UTMDACC is not responsible for costs, follow-up care, or hospitalization associated with
such emergency care; and 

  

	 	ii)	immediately dismiss a VISITING SCIENTIST from UTMDACC if UTMDACC reasonably determines that: 

(a) the presence of the VISITING SCIENTIST has a detrimental or disruptive effect upon UTMDACC’ facilities, patients, or personnel; 

(b) the VISITING SCIENTIST compromises UTMDACC standards of care or performance; and/or 

(c) the VISITING SCIENTIST does not abide by UTMDACC guidelines, policies, procedures, rules, or regulations. 

If UTMDACC dismisses a VISITING SCIENTIST, UTMDACC will promptly provide to LICENSEE notice of such dismissal which will specify the reasons
for such dismissal. Upon request from LICENSEE, UTMDACC will promptly meet with LICENSEE and discuss such situation with LICENSEE, and the PARTIES will work together in good faith to determine if, when and under what circumstances and conditions the
VISITING SCIENTIST may return to work at UTMDACC. 
  

	6.0	Before beginning work at UTMDACC, the VISITING SCIENTISTS will be subject to a criminal background check and will, if requested by UTMDACC, provide proof of a history of vaccinations sufficient to meet UTMDACC’s
Department of Employee Health Services guidelines, including proof of a negative tuberculosis screening test within thirty (30) days prior to beginning work at UTMDACC. If the VISITING SCIENTISTS cannot provide proof of a negative tuberculosis
screening test within thirty (30) days prior to beginning work at UTMDACC, then the VISITING SCIENTISTS must successfully undergo tuberculosis screening through UTMDACC’s Department of Employee Health Services prior to beginning work at
UTMDACC. UTMDACC may dismiss the VISITING SCIENTISTS if the VISITING SCIENTISTS do not meet UTMDACC’s health criteria. 

  

	7.0	 Because of the VISITING SCIENTIST presence at UTMDACC, the VISITING SCIENTISTS may be exposed to research and/or other activities at UTMDACC that are
independently undertaken by UTMDACC separate and apart from the RESEARCH PROGRAMS under this AGREEMENT, and/or which may be 

  
 42 

	 	
sponsored by, and/or undertaken with, or for, third parties, including third party research collaborators and/or sponsors, such as other academic institutions, other government agencies, and/or
commercial organizations (“NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES”). 

  

	8.0	Such NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES may impose confidentiality obligations upon UTMDACC with respect to such activities and/or grant third parties rights in intellectual property and inventions arising from such research or
activities. With respect to the VISITING SCIENTISTS, and notwithstanding any other provisions of this AGREEMENT, “OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION” means any and all information that the VISITING SCIENTISTS obtain as a result of the
presence of the VISITING SCIENTISTS at UTMDACC and that pertains to NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES and VISITING SCIENTISTS have not obtained such information as part of the collaborative activities being conducted at UTMDACC with respect to the RESEARCH
PROGRAM. Notwithstanding any other provision of the AGREEMENT, but subject to the exceptions that may exist with respect to OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION in the agreements governing the OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, the VISITING SCIENTISTS (and
LICENSEE, to the extent LICENSEE learns such information) will keep confidential, and may not disclose to any individual or entity, including to LICENSEE, any OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION that relates to or regards the NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES. The
VISITING SCIENTISTS (and LICENSEE, to the extent LICENSEE learns such information) may also not use OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION that relates to or regards the NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES in a manner that is adverse to or competes with UTMDACC, the
principal investigator of such research, or any third party participant, collaborator, supporter, or sponsor of such research or activity, and the VISITING SCIENTISTS and LICENSEE may not assert any rights to, or any ownership of, other interest in
any intellectual property and inventions arising from the NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES if the assertion of such rights to, ownership of, or other interest would conflict with, or diminish, any rights, ownership, or other interests either held by UTMDACC
or granted by UTMDACC to a third party with respect to such OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The VISITING SCIENTIST (and LICENSEE, to the extent LICENSEE learns such information) will not publicly disclose or publish any articles or make any
presentations regarding such NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES without prior, written consent from UTMDACC, which consent is in the sole discretion of UTMDACC, but which UTMDACC will not unreasonably withhold. 

 

	9.0	 LICENSEE will take reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of any patient’s health and medical information that it or the VISITING
SCIENTISTS have access to as a result of the presence of the VISITING 

  
 43 

	 	
SCIENTISTS at UTMDACC. Moreover, LICENSEE will maintain, and will ensure that the VISITING SCIENTISTS maintain, the security and confidentiality of individually identifiable patient health
information that either LICENSEE or the VISITING SCIENTIST obtain as a result of the presence of the VISITING SCIENTISTS at UTMDACC, and LICENSEE will comply, and will ensure that the VISITING SCIENTISTS comply, with all applicable federal and state
health information confidentiality laws and regulations (including, as applicable, the Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information, published at Title 45 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations Parts 160 and 164),
as well as any applicable national or state privacy and security laws and regulations. If the VISITING SCIENTISTS (and LICENSEE, to the extent LICENSEE learns such information) obtains any health or medical information of any patient of UTMDACC,
then, unless disclosure has been authorized by a patient, the VISITING SCIENTISTS (and LICENSEE, to the extent LICENSEE learns such information) will hold in confidence the identity of the patient and the health/medical information of such patient
and the VISITING SCIENTISTS (and LICENSEE, to the extent LICENSEE learns such information) must comply with applicable laws and UTMDACC policies regarding confidentiality of such information. UTMDACC will undertake reasonable efforts to shield
NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES and OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION from the VISITING SCIENTISTS and advise the VISITING SCIENTISTS if they are exposed to, or become involved, in NON-LICENSEE ACTIVITIES or OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, provided,
however, that, any failure in these regards does not abrogate the other terms and provisions of this Article 9.0. The obligations set forth in this Article 9.0 survive the termination and expiration of the AGREEMENT. 

 

	10.0	The activities of the VISITING SCIENTISTS at UTMDACC are limited to the following activities, all of which are subject to and must be in accordance with APPLICABLE LAWS and UTMDACC’S written policies, and as
mutually agreed upon by the parties: (i) current and future research activities under the RESEARCH PROGRAMS and VISITING SCIENTISTS may work on the RESEARCH PROGRAMS at UTMDACC, (ii) participating in the manufacture and release of products
for human application, (iii) applying to, receiving and maintaining grants from federal, state, local, private, institutional and other funding sources, including maintaining any and all funding granted to VISITING SCIENTISTS prior to and after
the Effective Date, (iv) benefiting from, attending and participating in activities related to philanthropy and fund raising activities, (v) supervising and at times directing trainees, post-docs, staff and faculty at UTMDACC. The VISITING
SCIENTISTS will not perform the following activities in the capacity of the attending physician, unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by UTMDACC: i) diagnosing disease or other conditions in humans; or ii) the cure, mitigation, therapy,
treatment, treatment planning, or prevention of disease in humans, or to affect the structure or function thereof, regardless of whether the VISITING SCIENTISTS are certified or qualified for the foregoing. UTMDACC will allow the VISITING SCIENTISTS
to observe patients, provided that UTMDACC i) obtained any necessary consent and/or authorization from the patient, ii) otherwise complied with all APPLICABLE LAWS related thereto, and iii) directly supervises such observations. 

  
 44 

	11.0	LICENSEE is responsible for any acts and omissions of the VISITING SCIENTISTS and LICENSEE shall ensure that the VISITING SCIENTISTS are informed of these provisions and are obligated to abide by them.
