Re:          Employment Terms

 

Dear Jeff:

 

Atterocor, Inc. (the “Company”) is pleased to offer you the position of Senior Vice President Administration and General Counsel on the following terms.

 

You will be responsible for leading the Company’s corporate administration and legal initiatives. This includes, but is not limited to, providing senior management with effective advice on company strategies and their implementation, reviewing and negotiating contracts, and obtaining and overseeing the work of outside counsel. You will report to Julia C. Owens, CEO of the Company. Of course, the Company may change your position, duties, and work location from time to time in its discretion.

 

Your compensation will be $255,000, less payroll deductions and all required withholdings. You will be paid semi-monthly. Because your position is classified as exempt, you will not be eligible for overtime premiums. You will be eligible to receive an annual bonus (which shall be prorated for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015) up to a maximum of 25% of your total compensation received during the most recently completed fiscal year, less payroll deductions and all required withholdings, with any such bonus to be determined at the sole discretion of the Company and its Board of Directors.

 

You will be eligible for standard Company benefits. At this time, the Company has established a benefits package for employees, that includes health insurance coverage, a 401(k) savings plan, flexible savings plan and paid vacation, and you will be eligible for other benefits as they become available. The Company may modify compensation and benefits from time to time in its discretion.

 

The Company intends to grant you, subject to approval by the Company’s Board of Directors, a stock option to purchase 212,786 shares (the “Option”) of Common Stock of the Company at fair market value as determined by the Board as of the date of grant, which the Board will determine following the receipt and adoption of an independent third party valuation of the Company’s common stock. The Option will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s equity incentive plan and your grant agreement. Your grant agreement will include a four-year vesting schedule, under which 25 percent of your shares will vest after twelve months of employment, with the remaining shares vesting monthly thereafter, until either your Option is fully vested or your employment ends, whichever occurs first.

 

As a Company employee, you will be expected to abide by Company policies and procedures. As a condition of employment, you must sign and comply with the attached Employee

 

 

Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement which prohibits unauthorized use or disclosure of Company proprietary information, among other obligations.

 

In your work for the Company, you will be expected not to use or disclose any confidential information, including trade secrets, of any former employer or other person to whom you have an obligation of confidentiality. Rather, you will be expected to use only that information which is generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to your own, which is common knowledge in the industry or otherwise legally in the public domain, or which is otherwise provided or developed by the Company. You agree that you will not bring onto Company premises any unpublished documents or property belonging to any former employer or other person to whom you have an obligation of confidentiality. You represent that you have disclosed to the Company any contract you have signed that may restrict your activities on behalf of the Company.

 

Your employment relationship with the Company is at-will. You may terminate your employment with the Company at any time and for any reason whatsoever simply by notifying the Company. Likewise, the Company may terminate your employment at any time, with or without cause or advance notice. Your employment at-will status can only be modified in a written agreement signed by you and by an officer of the Company. As we have discussed, in the event that we are not successful in our pending licensing of AZD4901 from AstraZeneca, the Company may not be in a position to continue your employment. I mention this so that you can assess whether or not you choose to give notice to your current employer in advance of the completion of our license.

 

This offer is contingent upon a background check clearance and satisfactory proof of your right to work in the United States. You agree to assist as needed and to complete any documentation at the Company’s request to meet these conditions.

 

This letter, together with your Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, forms the complete and exclusive statement of your employment agreement with the Company. It supersedes any other representations or promises made to you by anyone, whether oral or written. Changes in your employment terms, other than those changes expressly reserved to the Company’s discretion in this letter, require a written modification signed by an officer of the Company.

 

Please sign and date this letter, and the enclosed Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, and return them to me by August 1, 2015, if you wish to accept employment at the Company under the terms described above. If you accept our offer, we would like you to start on August 24, 2015.

 

We look forward to your favorable reply and to a productive and enjoyable work relationship.

ASSIGNMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

 

2.1                               Erasmus MC hereby irrevocably sells, assigns and transfers to Newco its entire rights, titles and interest in and to the Intellectual Property and the Patents. Erasmus MC hereby waives all rights and interest with respect to the Intellectual Property and the Patents.

 

Each of the Researchers and the University of Torino hereby acknowledges the above-described assignment in favour of Newco and covenants and agrees to cooperate with Newco and Erasmus MC in order to implement such assignment of the Intellectual Property and the Patents in favour of Newco.

 

Notwithstanding the above-described assignment in favour of Newco, the Institutions shall have the non-exclusive right to use the Intellectual Property for non-commercial research provided that such use (i) shall be limited to the Researchers and their respective team; and (ii) shall require the prior written consent of Newco.

 

2.2                               Newco covenants and agrees to prepare, deliver for execution and file, or cause to be prepared, delivered and filed, at its sole expense, patent assignments and other documents required in each patent office concerned for the assignment of the Patents to Newco.

 

2.3                               Upon execution of this Agreement and within four (4) weeks thereof, each of the Researchers, the University of Torino and Erasmus MC covenants and agrees to transfer to Newco the tangible property in his/its possession related to the Intellectual Property including study results reports and raw data.

 

2.4                               Erasmus MC hereby represents and warrants to Newco as follows and acknowledges that Newco is relying upon such representations and warranties to enter into this Agreement and would not have entered into this Agreement if not for these representations and warranties:

2.4.1                     To the best of its knowledge, Erasmus MC is the owner of the entire rights, titles and interest in and to the Intellectual Property and the Patents.

 

2.4.2                     Erasmus MC has used its best efforts to take all steps reasonably necessary to preserve its legal rights in, and the secrecy of, the Intellectual Property and the Patents, except those for which disclosure has been required for legitimate reasons pursuant to confidentiality agreements or legal reasons.

 

2.4.3                     To the best of its knowledge, its rights in the Intellectual Property and the Patents do not conflict with or infringe upon the rights of others. Erasmus MC, to the best of its knowledge, does not currently utilize any invention of any other party related to the Molecule. Erasmus MC, to the best of its knowledge, has not in the past violated or infringed, and is not currently violating or infringing, any intellectual property rights of any other person, in relation to the Molecule. Erasmus MC has not received any communications or been made a party to any suit or any other proceeding alleging that it (or any of its employees or consultants) has violated or infringed or will violate or infringe, any intellectual property rights of any other person in relation to the Molecule.

 

2.4.4                     To the best of Erasmus MC’s knowledge, no third party has any ownership right, title, interest, claiming, or lien on the Intellectual Property and the Patents, Erasmus MC has not granted, and there are no outstanding options, licenses or agreements of any kind relating to the Intellectual Property and the Patents, nor is Erasmus MC bound by, or a party to, any option, license or agreement with respect to the Intellectual Property and the Patents.

 

2.4.5                     Erasmus MC has obtained from its consultants properly executed written assignments of intellectual property rights as well as waivers of moral rights therein, to the extent necessary to assign all of their rights, titles and interest in and to the Intellectual Property and the Patents to Erasmus MC.

 

2.4.6                     To the best of its knowledge, Erasmus MC is not obligated under any agreement (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court of administrative agency, or any other restriction that would interfere with its efforts to carry out its obligations hereunder or that would conflict with its obligations hereunder. To the best of Erasmus MC’s knowledge, the assignment of the Intellectual Property and the Patents will not conflict with, or result in, a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which Erasmus MC is now obligated. At no time during the conception or reduction to practice of the Intellectual Property was Erasmus MC operating under any grants from any source, governmental or private, performing research sponsored by any source, governmental or private, or subject to any employment agreement or invention assignment or nondisclosure agreement or other obligation

Erasmus MC acknowledges that this amount constitutes the entire consideration for the assignment of the Intellectual Property and the Patents and hereby confirms the sufficiency of the amount as the consideration for the assignment.

 

3.2                               Newco covenants and agrees to reimburse to Erasmus MC the expenses incurred with Smart & Biggar related to the Patents and incurred since the acquisition of the Patents from Theratechnologies Inc. until the assignment of the latter to Newco pursuant to the present Agreement, the whole upon presentation of supporting invoices.

 

ARTICLE 4

ROYALTIES

 

4.1                               The Institutions and Dr. Ghigo agree to cooperate with Newco as Newco may require to develop and/or commercialize the Intellectual Property. The Institutions and Dr. Ghigo also hereby sell, assign and transfer irrevocably to Newco their entire rights, titles and interest in and to any and all Improvements and hereby waive all rights and interest with respect thereto.

 

4.2                               In consideration of said cooperation and assignment of the Improvements identified in section 4.1, Newco hereby covenants and agrees to pay to the Institutions and to Dr. Ghigo an annual 1,5 % royalty fee calculated on the Net Sales of Newco. For the purposes hereof, “Net Sales” shall be defined as yearly sales made by Newco for the Products less the total of the following amounts related thereto: (i) applicable taxes and duties; (ii) all rebates or quantity discounts to distributors applicable after sale, bad debts; (iii) sales commissions; (iv) freight and transportation costs and (v) insurance costs.

 

4.3                               In further consideration of the cooperation and assignment of the Improvements identified in section 4.1, the Institutions and Dr. Ghigo will also be entitled to receive an annual 5 % royalty fee calculated on the following revenues of Newco directly generated from the Patents, the Intellectual Property and the Improvements : (i) royalty payments on sale of Products paid by Newco’s licensees; and (ii) upfront or regulatory milestone payments paid by Newco’s licensees pursuant to license agreements.

 

4.4                               The royalty payments described in sections 4.2 and 4.3 above shall be payable by Newco to the Institutions and Dr. Ghigo in the following proportions :

 

50 % to Erasmus MC

30 % to University of Torino

20 % to Dr. Ghigo

 

4.5                               The royalty payments shall (i) accrue and be computed in the currency of the country in which sales or payments shall have been made; and (ii) be payable no later than 180 days Following the last day of each financial year end of Newco namely, December 31.

 

4.6                               Notwithstanding the generality of the above sections, the royalty payments :

 

4.6.1                     shall only be payable commencing from the earliest grant or issue date of the Patents, and until the latest date the granted or issued Patents expire, are withdrawn, become abandoned, or are declared invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a Court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction;

 

4.6.2                     will be pro-rated amongst all the Patents filed prior to sixty (60) days of the date of this Assignment, such that the magnitude of the royalties payable in each year will diminish over time based on the total number of Patents existing in each year. For the purpose of this calculation, a Patent shall not be considered an existing Patent if, prior to the end of any given year, it has expired, been withdrawn, become abandoned, or been declared invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a Court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction. For greater certainty, an international patent application shall not be considered an existing Patent for the purpose of this calculation.

 

4.7                               Newco agrees that the Institutions and Dr. Ghigo, jointly and not individually, will have the right to audit books and records pertaining to the royalty payments on Net Sales. Any such verification may be performed from time to time, at a reasonable frequency, and following a reasonable prior written notice to Newco, by a reputable and independent accounting firm, according to a procedure that will be negociated in good faith and agreed between the parties at the latest when the first marketing authorization will be filed, either at the FDA or the EMEA, for the first Product.

 

4.8                               In further consideration of the cooperation and assignment of the Improvements identified in section 4.1, Newco hereby covenants and agrees to pay to the Institutions and to Dr. Ghigo, in the same proportions described in Section 4.4, a milestone payment in the amount of CND$ 100,000 upon the first regulatory approval granted to Newco by either EMEA or FDA, it being understood that such amount of CND$ 100,000 shall be deducted from any further royalty payments payable by Newco to the Institutions and Dr. Ghigo pursuant to Sections 4.2 or 4.3 hereof.

5.1                               From June 1, 2007, Newco covenants and agrees, directly and indirectly through a licensee, to use reasonnable efforts to develop, introduce for sale and promote the Products. The Institutions and Dr. Ghigo agree that Newco is using reasonnable efforts when :

 

5.1.1                     Newco spends annually an amount of at least CDN$ 100,000 in research and development related to the Products; or

 

5.1.2                     Newco actively pursues the registrations, licences and permits necessary to market the Products; or

 

5.1.3                     There is actual commercialisation of a Product.

 

5.2                               If Newco does not respect its obligation to use such reasonnable efforts within 180 days after having received from the Institutions and Dr. Ghigo, a prior written notice, the Institutions and Dr. Ghigo shall have the right to jointly terminate this Agreement and acquire the rights in and to the Patents at a price equal to all the out-of-pocket expenses related to the Patents, including, but not limited to, the purchase price disbursed by Newco to Erasmus MC to purchase the Patents, namely CDN $80,000.

 

ARTICLE 6

SALE OF THE PATENTS BY NEWCO

 

6.1                               In the event that Newco sells the Patents to a third party, Newco shall cause such third party purchaser to assume Newco’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement as if it was an original party thereto, or, if Newco, the Institutions and Dr. Ghigo agree, remit an amount equal to 5% of the net proceeds resulting from such sale to the Institutions and Dr. Ghigo in the same proportions described in Section 4.4. The parties acknowledge and agree that the sale of shares of Newco in whole or in part, its merger, a corporate reorganization of its affairs or any similar transaction does not constitute a sale of the Patents for the application of the present article.
