The JDCs, JCCs, the Financial Working Group and other Subcommittees, if any, shall each meet at least quarterly after the Subcommittee is formed, or as more or less often as otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing.  Committee meetings may be conducted by telephone, videoconference or in person.  Any in-person Committee meetings shall be held on an alternating basis between IDEAYA’s and GSK’s facilities, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing.  Each Party shall be responsible for its own expenses in attending such meetings and those expenses will not be included in Development Costs hereunder.  As appropriate, the Committee may invite a reasonable number of non-voting employees, consultants, and scientific advisors to attend its meetings as nonvoting observers, provided that such invitees are bound by appropriate confidentiality obligations substantially similar to the ones set forth in this Agreement.  Each Party may also call for special meetings of a Committee to discuss matters requested by such Party.  The Alliance Managers shall provide the members of the JSC with no less than [***] Business Days’ notice of each regularly scheduled meeting and, to the extent reasonably practicable under the circumstances, no less than [***] Business Days’ notice of any special meetings of the JSC called by either Party.

The Alliance Managers will be responsible for taking and circulating minutes of each JSC meeting and for all other Committees, and the Co-Chairs will be responsible for taking and circulating minutes, in each case on a rotating basis (commencing with the Alliance Manager of GSK and the Co-Chair of each other Committee designated by GSK).  If a Party’s Alliance Manager (or his or her designee) is not present at a JSC meeting and that Party is responsible for keeping minutes, such Party shall designate one of its JSC members to keep minutes.  Minutes shall record all action items and decisions of the applicable Committee.  The Committee shall formally accept the minutes of the previous Committee meeting at or before the next Committee meeting. Minutes will be deemed approved unless any member of the Committee objects to the accuracy of such minutes by providing written notice to the other members of the Committee prior to the next meeting of such Committee.  Minutes shall list action items and shall designate any issues that need to be resolved by the JSC or applicable dispute resolution process.  In the event of any such objection to the minutes that is not resolved by mutual agreement of the Parties, such minutes will be amended to reflect such unresolved dispute.

In order to make any decision, any Committee must have present (in person or via telephone or videoconference) and voting at least one representative of each Party.  Unless otherwise specified by the JSC, in the event that the JDCs, JCCs, the Financial Working Group or any other Subcommittee cannot or does not reach consensus with respect to a particular matter within the authority of such Subcommittee (a “Subcommittee Deadlock”) after endeavoring for [***] days to do so, such matter shall be referred to the JSC for discussion and attempted resolution.  In the event that the JSC does not reach a decision with respect to a Subcommittee Deadlock, or if the JSC cannot or does not reach consensus with respect to any other matter within its authority, in each case, after endeavoring for [***] days to do so, then such matter (a “Committee Deadlock”) shall be decided by the Parties in accordance with Section 5.8.2 below. 

	
5.8.2
	
Decision Making Authority.  The Committee Deadlock shall be submitted by either Party to the Senior Managers of both Parties.  The Senior Managers of each Party or their respective designees, shall attempt to resolve such Committee Deadlock within [***] days of submission.  If the Senior Managers (or their respective designees) cannot resolve the Committee Deadlock, then [***], any material updates or amendments to the MAT2A Program Collaboration Plan proposed by a Party to be made prior to the Option Closing Date shall be submitted to the JDC for review and comment.  Within [***] Business Days of receiving such proposed update or amendment, the JDC will, in turn, submit such reviewed updates and amendments thereto to the JSC for review and approval.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) [***] shall not modify the requirements for the Option Data Package unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties in writing and (ii) [***] with respect to the calculation  or reconciliation, as applicable, of Shared Development Costs and the Pre-Tax Profit or Loss, which for clarity any disagreement by a Committee or by the Parties with respect thereto shall be resolved in accordance with Sections 7.20 and 7.21.  Neither Party shall have the right to use its final decision-making authority to resolve disputes arising out of the interpretation of this Agreement, which for clarity shall be resolved in accordance with Section 15.2.

	
5.8.3
	
Day-to-Day Decision-Making Authority.  Each Party shall have decision making authority with respect to the day-to-day operational and tactical activities of such Party (and such Party’s employees, agents and subcontractors) under this Agreement, provided that such decisions are not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including any applicable Collaboration Plan, Development Plan or Commercialization Plan) or the decisions and actions of the JSC, the JDCs, the JCCs, Financial Working Group or any other Subcommittee, as applicable. 

	
5.8.4
	
Limitation of Powers.  Each Committee will have only the powers as are specifically delegated to it under this Agreement.

The Alliance Managers shall not be counted as members of any Committee (and shall not vote on matters discussed at any Committee meeting).  Each Party may change its designated Alliance Manager from time to time upon written notice to the other Party.

	
5.10
	
Patent Liaisons.  Promptly following and in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, the Parties shall each designate representative(s) to consult with the other Party’s representative(s) with respect to Patent prosecution, maintenance, enforcement and defense matters (the “Patent Liaisons”) as more fully described in this Section 5.10.

If such Big Four Accounting Firm concludes that the profits of such Licensed Product in the U.S. is not equal to [***]% of such profits for such Licensed Product globally in each case, for the then-preceding year, then the Parties shall adjust the 20% IDEAYA/80% GSK Development Cost share ratio set forth in Section 6.2.4 (“Cost Share Ratio”) to reflect the actual relative profits in the U.S. compared to the profits in the world other than the U.S. as follows: for each [***] [***]% profits of such Licensed Product in the U.S. as compared to worldwide profits of such Licensed Product as determined by the Big Four Accounting Firm (“Relative U.S. Market Share”), the Cost Share Ratio of IDEAYA will be increased by [***] by [***]% of the Relative U.S. Market Share, the Cost Share Ratio of IDEAYA will be decreased by [***].  Such updated Cost Share Ratio will apply both prospectively to the sharing of future Development Costs hereunder, as well as retroactively to Development Costs previously reconciled for the three (3) years prior (such amount of Development Costs a Party owes to the other Party with respect to such Development Cost previously reconciled by way of such modified Cost Share Ratio, “True Up Costs”).  To the extent that IDEAYA owes to GSK any True Up Costs, GSK shall credit against any amounts otherwise due to IDEAYA under this Agreement until such True Up Costs are fully recouped by

GSK may engage its Affiliates, Sublicensees or Third Party subcontractors (including distributors, contract research organizations and contract manufacturing organizations) to perform certain of its obligations under the Development Plans, Commercialization Plans or otherwise in connection with its obligation to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products under this Agreement.  GSK shall cause any subcontract between GSK and any Third Party subcontractor used by GSK to perform such obligations to provide that all intellectual property rights conceived, created or generated during the performance of such services material to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of such Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products contemplated by this Agreement shall be owned or Controlled by GSK.  GSK’s use of Affiliates, Sublicensees or subcontractors shall not relieve GSK of any obligation hereunder and GSK shall cause its Affiliates, Sublicensees or subcontractors to comply with its applicable obligations under this Agreement.  GSK shall remain responsible under this Agreement for ensuring, and shall be liable to IDEAYA for, the compliance of Affiliates, Sublicensees and subcontractors with this Agreement.  Any Third Party subcontractor to be engaged by GSK to perform GSK’s obligations under this Agreement shall meet the qualifications typically required by GSK for the performance of work similar in scope and complexity to the subcontracted activity.

7.1.1Upfront Payment.  In partial consideration of the rights and licenses granted to GSK under this Agreement, GSK shall pay IDEAYA One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) within ten (10) Business Days after the Effective Date and upon receipt of a valid invoice from IDEAYA.  Such payment shall be non-creditable and non-refundable.

7.1.2Equity Investment.  [On the Closing Date, GSK agrees to cause Glaxo Group Limited (the “GSK Purchaser”) to purchase for the Aggregate Purchase Price, and IDEAYA agrees to issue and sell, in a private placement pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (as may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”), to be entered into by GSK Purchaser and IDEAYA substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A (the “Private Placement”), the number of shares of IDEAYA’s common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Common Stock”), determined by dividing $20,000,000 (the “Total Equity Commitment”) by a price per share equal to the Purchase Price, rounded down to the nearest number of whole shares (if applicable); provided that GSK Purchaser shall not be obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement prior to the date that is two Business

Days (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) after the HSR Clearance Date, or following the Termination Date; provided, further, that in the event that following the effectiveness of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Stock Purchase Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) pursuant to Sections 6.12(i)-(iii) thereof, such termination shall not, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, terminate GSK Purchaser’s obligation to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 7.1; provided, further, that, Glaxo Group Limited shall not be obligated to purchase, and IDEAYA shall not issue or sell, in the Private Placement any shares of Common Stock which would result in the beneficial ownership of Common Stock by GSK and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder) of more than 9.99% of the as adjusted issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock giving effect to the Private Placement and the Public Offering (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, further, that any obligations of GSK or GSK Purchaser to purchase shares of Common Stock in the Private Placement pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall be deemed to be fully satisfied, and GSK and GSK Purchaser shall have no further obligation to purchase shares of Common Stock, if GSK Purchaser purchases such number of shares of Common Stock in the Private Placement so as to be in compliance with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, regardless of whether the Aggregate Purchase Price for such shares of Common Stock is less than the Total Equity Commitment.  In no event shall GSK Purchaser be obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock at an Aggregate Purchase Price exceeding the Total Equity Commitment.  The Purchase Agreement shall be entered into by GSK Purchaser and IDEAYA on or about the same time as the underwriting agreement for the Public Offering is entered into by IDEAYA and the underwriters for the Public Offering.

	
7.2
	
Reimbursement of POLQ Program Costs.  Within [***] days after the end of each Calendar Quarter during the conduct of the POLQ Program, IDEAYA, in accordance with GAAP, shall submit to GSK a reasonably detailed report and any additional documentation reasonably requested by GSK, setting forth all Development Costs for the Development of the POLQ Compounds and POLQ Products in the Field in the Territory actually incurred by IDEAYA in the conduct of the POLQ Program in accordance with the applicable Collaboration Plan and Collaboration Budget during such Calendar Quarter (the “POLQ Program Costs”).  GSK shall reimburse IDEAYA for the POLQ Program Costs incurred as set forth in such report; provided that any POLQ Program Costs incurred in excess of [***] of the budgeted POLQ Program Costs for the applicable Calendar Quarter shall be borne by IDEAYA unless such overage was approved in advance by the applicable JDC and JSC.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any POLQ Program Costs that are incurred by IDEAYA as a result of IDEAYA’s failure to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts in performing its obligations under the POLQ Program or due to IDEAYA’s negligence, whether or not such POLQ Program Costs are in excess of [***] of the Development Budget for the applicable Calendar Quarter, shall be borne entirely by IDEAYA.  GSK shall reimburse POLQ Program Costs within [***] days after receipt of an invoice from IDEAYA.

WRN Development Costs and MAT2A Development Costs incurred by the Parties in accordance with Section 6.2.4 ((a) and (b) referred to collectively as the “Shared Development Costs”), within [***] days following the end of each Calendar Quarter during which any such Shared Development Costs are incurred, each of IDEAYA and GSK (as applicable), in accordance with Accounting Standards, shall submit to the Financial Working Group a written report setting forth in reasonable detail all WRN Program Costs, WRN Development Costs or MAT2A Development Costs incurred by each such Party over such Calendar Quarter, provided, however, that a preliminary estimate of the Shared Development Costs, in a format agreed by the Financial Working Group, shall be provided by each IDEAYA and GSK within [***] days following the end of the Calendar Quarter for purposes of financial statement close process.  For clarity, such estimate may be based on forecasted numbers and the Parties agree that the final Development Costs and other Allowable Expenses reported in the Financial Reports may differ from this estimate.  Within [***] days following the receipt by the Financial Working Group of such written reports, the Financial Working Group shall prepare and submit to each Party a written report (the “Financial Reports”) setting forth in reasonable detail (i) the calculation of all such Shared Development Costs incurred by both Parties over such Calendar Quarter and any deviations from the applicable Collaboration Budget or Development Budget, and (ii) the calculation of the net amount owed by GSK to IDEAYA or by IDEAYA to GSK in order to ensure the appropriate sharing of such Shared Development Costs in accordance with Sections 4.2 and 6.2.4.  The Party that is due for reimbursement of Shared Development Costs shall invoice the other Party within [***] days of receipt of such report from the Financial Working Group.  Such payments by one Party to reimburse the other Party’s expenditures for Shared Development Costs shall be paid within [***] days following receipt of the invoice.  Any WRN Program Costs, WRN Development Costs or MAT2A Development Costs incurred in excess of the agreed upon Collaboration Budget or Development Budget in any Calendar Quarter will be subject to the terms set forth in Section 7.3.2.

	
7.3.2
	
Overruns.    Each Party shall notify the other Party promptly upon becoming aware that the anticipated Development Costs to be incurred by such Party under a particular Collaboration Plan or Development Plan for a given Calendar Year shall be in excess of the applicable approved Collaboration Budget or Development Budget.  Thereafter, the following shall apply:

	
(a)
	
Following such notification, the Financial Working Group, in consultation with the applicable JDC (as and if needed), shall discuss the causes of any such increase and evaluate potential mitigation measures to prevent a further increase of Development Costs.  To the extent, based on this discussion, that the Financial Working Group concludes that the anticipated amount of the concerned category of Development Costs is likely not to exceed [***] of the amounts budgeted (the “Permitted Overage”) as set forth in the then-current applicable Development Budget, such anticipated Development Costs shall be included in the calculation of the applicable Development Costs for the purposes of determining the amounts to be paid from one Party to the other Party to reflect the sharing percentages set forth in Sections 4.2 and 6.2.4.

45

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

(b)If the Financial Working Group, in consultation with the JDC, concludes that the anticipated amount of the applicable Development Costs is likely to exceed the Permitted Overage (such amount the “Excess Costs”) and there are no mitigation measures to prevent such Excess Costs, then such Excess Costs shall not be included in the calculation of the Shared Development Costs and shall be borne by the Party incurring them, unless mutually agreed by the Parties through the JSC to be shared.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Excess Costs are directly attributable and reasonably allocable to and required by a change in Applicable Laws, a requirement of a Regulatory Authority, a change required to mitigate a safety issue or a Force Majeure event, or are otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, then such costs shall not be borne solely by the Party incurring them and shall be included in the calculation of Shared Development Costs for the purposes of determining the amounts to be paid from one Party to the other Party for the applicable Calendar Year.

	
(c)
	
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any WRN Program Costs, WRN Development Costs or MAT2A Development Costs that are incurred by a Party as a result of that Party’s failure to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts in connection with performing its obligations hereunder or due to that Party’s negligence, whether or not such WRN Program Costs, WRN Development Costs or MAT2A Development Costs are in excess of [***] of the applicable Collaboration Budget or Development Budget for the applicable Calendar Year, shall be borne entirely by that Party. 

	
7.4
	
Pre-Tax Profit or Loss Sharing.

	
7.4.1
	
Pre-Tax Profit or Loss.  Subject to Section 7.5, the Parties shall share in Pre-Tax Profit or Loss in the Profit-Sharing Territory solely with respect to  MAT2A Products (subject to occurrence of the Option Closing Date) and WRN Products as follows: IDEAYA shall bear (and be entitled to) fifty percent (50%), and GSK shall bear (and be entitled to) fifty percent (50%), commencing with the First Commercial Sale of the applicable Licensed Product in the Profit-Sharing Territory and continuing for as long as the relevant Licensed Product continues to be sold by GSK, its Affiliates, and their Sublicensees in the Profit-Sharing Territory (the “Profit-Sharing Term”).  Procedures for reporting, quarterly reconciliation and other finance and accounting matters will be as set forth in the Pre-Tax Profit or Loss Schedule. 

	
7.4.2
	
Income Taxes.  Subject to Section 7.14, income and withholding Taxes imposed on either of the Parties hereunder shall not be included in Pre-Tax Profit or Loss hereunder.

	
7.5
	
Development Cost Share Opt Out.

	
7.5.1
	
Exercise by IDEAYA.  IDEAYA may, upon written notice to GSK, with respect to the [***] and with respect to [***] with respect to the relevant Licensed Compound or Licensed Product, opt out of future sharing of Shared Costs and the Pre-Tax Profit or Loss in the Profit Sharing Territory (the “IDEAYA Opt-Out”), in each case, with respect to either, as independently elected by IDEAYA, (i) the WRN Compounds and WRN Products or (ii) solely if the Option Closing Date occurs, the MAT2A Compounds and MAT2A Products (any such

Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products for which IDEAYA has exercised the IDEAYA Opt-Out as specified in the IDEAYA Opt-Out, the “Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Products”).  Such notice shall specify the date upon which such IDEAYA Opt-Out will be effective (such date to be no sooner than [***] days after the date such notice is delivered to GSK pursuant to Section 16.5) (the “Cost Share End Date”).  Effective from and after the Cost Share End Date, sharing of Shared Development Costs and of the Pre-Tax Profit or Loss in the Profit Sharing Territory in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement will no longer apply with respect to the Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Products (and for clarity GSK shall be solely responsible for such costs that were previously shared hereunder, and shall have no obligation to share any Pre-Tax Profit or Loss in the form of profits in the Profit Sharing Territory with IDEAYA with respect to such Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Products), but for clarity such Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Product shall continue to be a “Licensed Compound” and “Licensed Product” (as applicable) under this Agreement, subject to this Section 7.5.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, IDEAYA shall continue to be responsible for its portion of Shared Development Costs obligations for any and all studies, solely to the extent as contemplated in the relevant Collaboration Plans and Development Plans in the form as they exist as of the date such IDEAYA Opt-Out notice is delivered to GSK, that are ongoing as of the Cost Share End Date until such studies have been completed. 

	
7.5.2
	
Adjustment of Economics.  Effective from and after the Cost Share End Date, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following economic terms shall apply with respect to the applicable Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Products:

(a)If the Cost Share End Date occurs prior to the achievement of the Registration Study Initiation milestone set forth in Section 7.8 with respect to such Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Products then GSK shall pay to IDEAYA a running royalty on Net Sales of such Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Products by GSK, its Affiliates, and its Sublicensees in accordance with Section 7.12.

(b)If the Cost Share End Date occurs after the achievement of the Registration Study Initiation milestone set forth in Section 7.8 with respect to such Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Products then GSK shall pay to IDEAYA a running royalty on Net Sales of such Cost Share Opt Out Compounds and Products by GSK, its Affiliates, and its Sublicensees in accordance with Section 7.12; provided that the [***] percent ([***]%), [***] percent ([***]%), [***] percent ([***]%) and [***] percent ([***]%) royalty rates set forth therein shall be [***] [***] percent ([***]%), [***] percent ([***]%), [***] percent ([***]%) and [***] percent ([***]%), respectively.

	
7.6
	
Option Exercise Fee.  Subject to Section 7.6.1, GSK shall pay to IDEAYA a one-time, non-refundable, non-creditable fee of Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000.00) (the “Option Fee”) by the fifth (5th) day of the month following the sixtieth (60th) day from GSK’s receipt of an invoice from IDEAYA therefor, which invoice will be provided only after Option Exercise by GSK.

7.6.1
	
HSR Filing.  If GSK reasonably determines that the transactions to occur upon consummation of Option Exercise require an HSR Filing, then upon notice of Option Exercise (a) GSK shall provide notice of such HSR Filing obligation to IDEAYA (to the extent it has not already done so), (b) Section 2.2 shall apply with respect to the effectiveness of such Option Exercise (replacing Execution Date in the first sentence thereof with the notice date of Option Exercise) and (c) all rights and obligations of the Parties related to such Option or Option Exercise (including payment of the Option Fee and the grant of any license to GSK, but not with respect to making any HSR Filing) shall be tolled until the HSR Clearance Date.  The last sentence of Section 2.2 (i.e., a Party’s termination right) shall not apply to any delay in achieving the HSR Clearance Date with respect to an HSR Filing following notice of Option Exercise under this Section 7.5.1.  If the HSR Clearance Date with respect to such Option Exercise has not occurred on or before the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the date as of which both Parties have made their respective HSR Filings and the initial waiting period under the HSR Act has commenced with respect to such Option, then either Party may terminate the MAT2A Program upon notice to the other Party (and such termination, regardless of whether by IDEAYA or GSK, shall be treated as an automatic termination of this Agreement with respect to the MAT2A Target in accordance with Section 6.2.8).

	
7.7
	
Early Stage Development Milestones.  GSK shall make the non-refundable, non-creditable milestone payments to IDEAYA that are set forth below upon the first achievement by IDEAYA, GSK, or their respective Affiliates or Sublicensees, of the milestone events set forth below with respect to the applicable Licensed Compound or Licensed Product.  Each milestone shall be payable only once per Licensed Compound or Licensed Product of the same class as set forth in the table below; provided, that with respect to a given Target for which two or more Licensed Compounds in different classes achieve such milestones (for example, a POLQ ATPase Compound, a POLQ Polymerase Compound, or a POLQ Degrader Compound), GSK shall not be required to pay the GLP Toxicology Study Initiation milestone and the IND Acceptance by FDA milestone for the second (or any subsequent) Licensed Compound(s) to achieve those milestones unless, and until, such second (or applicable subsequent) Licensed Compound(s) achieves the Clinical Dose Expansion milestone.

7.12.4
	
Third Party Payments.  GSK shall be entitled to credit against the royalties due to IDEAYA upon Net Sales of a Licensed Product in a country solely in the Net Sales Territory an amount equal to [***] of the total royalties paid by GSK to Third Parties with respect to license rights to Patents or Know-How Controlled by Third Parties that GSK reasonably determines, after consultation with counsel, are necessary to avoid infringement of such Third Party Patents or misappropriation of such Third Party Know-How in the manufacture, use, offer for sale, sale or importation of such Licensed Product solely in the Net Sales Territory; provided that all such credits pursuant to this Section 7.12.4 shall not reduce the royalties payable to IDEAYA with respect to a MAT2A Product in any country to less than [***] of the royalties otherwise due to IDEAYA pursuant to Section 7.12.1 and subject to Section 7.12.5; and provided further that, GSK shall have the right to carry forward for application against royalties payable to IDEAYA with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Product solely in the Net Sales Territory in future periods any amount that is not so credited due to the limitation in the immediately preceding proviso (but for clarity subject to the floor stated in the preceding proviso).  

	
7.12.5
	
Royalty Floor.  In no event shall the cumulative royalty reductions and offsets in Sections 7.12.2–7.12.4 operate to reduce the total royalties due and payable by GSK to IDEAYA to more than [***] of the amounts as set forth in Section 7.12.1. 

	
7.12.6
	
Royalty Reporting.  Each Calendar Quarter following the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product in the applicable Net Sales Territory, GSK shall furnish to IDEAYA a written report showing on a Licensed Product–by–Licensed Product and country-by-country basis (a) the Net Sales; and (b) the calculation of the royalties payable under this Agreement on account of those Net Sales.  Each royalty report along with the royalties shown to have accrued on that report are due and payable to IDEAYA within [***] days following the end of such Calendar Quarter.  All payments due under this Section 7.12 shall be made by bank wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by IDEAYA.

Each Party will have the right, at its own expense and no more frequently than once in any twelve (12)-month period (except in the case of fraud), to have an independent, certified public accountant, selected by such Party from nationally reputable accounting firms in the United States or the United Kingdom and reasonably acceptable to the other Party, review any such records of the other Party in the location(s) where such records are maintained by the other Party upon [***] days’ prior written notice and during regular business hours and under obligations of confidentiality, for the sole purpose of verifying the basis and accuracy of payments made under this Agreement, with respect to any Calendar Year ending not more than three (3) years prior to the request of the auditing Party.  If the review of such records reveals that the other Party has failed to accurately report financial information required to be reported hereunder, or to make any payment (or portion thereof) required under this Agreement, then the other Party shall pay to the auditing Party any underpaid amounts due

hereunder together with interest calculated in the manner provided in Section 7.16 within [***] days.  If any such discrepancies are greater than [***] percent ([***]%) of the amounts actually due for the audited period, the other Party shall pay all reasonable costs incurred in conducting such review.  Once a Party has conducted a review and audit of the other Party pursuant to this Section 7.13 in respect of any given period, it may not subsequently re-inspect the other Party’s records in respect of such period, unless a subsequent audit of a separate reporting period uncovers fraud on the part of the audited Party that is reasonably expected to have been occurring during the prior audited period.  For clarity, however, if a discrepancy is identified by the accountant during the course of an audit and the Parties do not agree upon a resolution of such discrepancy, then the auditing Party’s accountant may re-inspect the books and records to the extent reasonably relevant to resolving such discrepancy.  Unless otherwise defined or stated, financial terms shall be calculated by the accrual method under the applicable Party’s Accounting Standards.  Financial records related to the foregoing shall be maintained (in such form as may be available) by each Party for a period of no less than seven (7) years following the end of the period to which they pertain.

	
7.14
	
Tax Matters.  Each Party will make all payments to each other under this Agreement without deduction or withholding for Taxes except to the extent that any such deduction or withholding is required by Applicable Law in effect at the time of payment.  The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with one another to reduce or minimize any such deduction or withholding required by Applicable Law, including by providing reasonable advance notice of such deduction or withholding by providing any forms or other certifications necessary to reduce the amount of such withholding.

	
7.14.1
	
Any amount payable by one Party to the other under this Agreement is deemed to be exclusive of any amount in respect of any VAT chargeable on the supply for which that sum is the consideration (in whole or in part) for VAT purposes.  If anything done by one Party under this Agreement constitutes, for VAT purposes, the making of a supply to the other Party and VAT is or becomes chargeable on that supply, the Party receiving the supply shall pay the other Party, in addition to any amount otherwise payable under this Agreement by the Party receiving the supply, a sum equal to the amount of the VAT chargeable on that supply against delivery of a valid VAT invoice to the Party receiving the supply.  

	
7.14.2
	
Any Tax required to be withheld on amounts payable under this Agreement will promptly be paid by the Party making the payment (the “Payor”) on behalf of the Party receiving the payment (the “Payee”) to the appropriate governmental authority, and Payor will furnish Payee with proof of payment of such Tax.  Any such Tax required to be withheld will be an expense of and borne by Payee, except that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if a Payor assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of some or all of its rights and obligations to any Person (without the prior written consent of the Payee) and if, as a result of such action, the withholding or deduction of tax required by Applicable Law with respect to payments under this Agreement is increased (the “Increased Withholding Taxes”), then any amount payable to the Payee under this Agreement shall be increased to take into account such Increased Withholding Taxes as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings (including

withholdings on the withheld amounts), the Payee receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such Increased Withholding Taxes been made.

	
7.14.3
	
The Parties will cooperate with respect to all documentation required by any taxing authority or reasonably requested by either Party to secure a reduction in the rate of applicable withholding Taxes or an exemption from withholding Taxes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Party is entitled under any applicable tax treaty to a reduction of rate of, or the elimination of, or recovery of, applicable withholding tax, then it may deliver to the other Party or the appropriate governmental authority the prescribed forms necessary to reduce the applicable rate of withholding or to relieve the Payor of its obligation to withhold tax.  If a Payee timely delivers to the Payor a validly executed form establishing a reduced rate or exemption from withholding, the Payor shall apply the reduced rate of withholding, or not withhold, as the case may be, provided that the Payor is in receipt of evidence, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Payor.  If, in accordance with the foregoing, the Payor withholds any amount, then it will pay to the Payee the balance when due, timely remit to the proper taxing authority of the withheld amount, and send the Payee proof of such remittance within [***] days following that remittance.

	
7.14.4
	
No Partnership.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed by the Parties, any of their Affiliates or any third person to treat the relationship between the Parties contemplated by this Agreement as a partnership, joint venture or other business entity under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-1(a)(2) (or any corresponding provision under state, local or non-U.S. tax Law) (an “Entity”).  Without the prior written consent of the Parties (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), no Party (or successor or assignee) shall, for Tax purposes, report the relationships established by this Agreement as an Entity, including either (a) making any disclosure that the relationships established by this Agreement may give rise to an Entity (whether on a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 8275 or otherwise) or (b) withholding any amounts from payments made to the other Party pursuant to Section 1446 of the Code (or any corresponding provision under state, local or non-U.S. tax law), unless required by a tax authority on audit or other examination.

	
7.15
	
Invoicing.  To the extent an invoice is required to be submitted to GSK hereunder, such invoice shall include the information set forth in Schedule 7.15.    

	
7.16
	
Late Payments.  Without limiting either Party’s remedies under this Agreement, any undisputed payments or portions thereof due hereunder that are not paid on the date such payments are due under this Agreement shall bear interest at a rate equal to [***] percentage points above the prime rate as published by Citibank, N.A., New York, New York, or any successor thereto, at 12:01 a.m. on the first day of each Calendar Quarter in which such payments are overdue, calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent.  Where the late payment is caused by the Party that is owed the payment, including for reasons such as failure to communicate in a timely manner changes to bank details, or failure to respond to communications from the Party owing the payment regarding the interpretation or dispute of the terms of such payment, then no interest will be payable by the Party owing the payment.

7.17
	
Currency Conversion.  Except as otherwise agreed by the Parties, all payments to be made by either Party to the other Party under this Agreement shall be made by such Party or its Affiliate in U.S. Dollars to the account designated by the Party to which the relevant payment is due.  In the case of any amounts designated in another currency, then each Party shall convert such foreign currency into U.S. Dollars using its standard conversion method consistent with its applicable Accounting Standard in a manner consistent with the respective Party’s customary and usual conversion procedures used in preparing its audited financial reports applied on a consistent basis, provided that such procedures use a widely accepted source of published exchange rates.  With respect to MAT2A Compounds and MAT2A Products and WRN Compounds and WRN Products for which IDEAYA has not exercised the IDEAYA Opt-Out, the Parties shall share equally (50/50) any Currency Gains and Losses as a result of such conversion.

	
7.18
	
Blocked Payments.  In the event that, by reason of Applicable Laws in any country, it becomes impossible or illegal for a Party or its Affiliate to transfer, or have transferred on its behalf, payments to the other Party, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the conditions preventing such transfer and such payments shall be deposited in local currency in the relevant country to the credit of the other Party in a recognized banking institution designated by the other Party or, if none is designated by the other Party within a period of [***] days, in a recognized banking institution selected by such Party or its Affiliate, as the case may be, and identified in a notice given to the other Party.

	
7.19
	
Disclaimer.  IDEAYA and GSK each acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Agreement will be construed as representing any estimate or projection of (i) the successful Development or Commercialization of any Licensed Product under this Agreement, (ii) if Commercialized, that any Licensed Product will achieve any particular pricing or reimbursement amount or any particular sales level, or (iii) anticipated sales or the actual value of any Licensed Product that may be successfully Developed or Commercialized under this Agreement.

	
7.20
	
Cooperation on Inter-Party Structure.  The Parties will reasonably cooperate to establish or facilitate an optimal inter-Party financial operational structure (including, if necessary, procedures and agreements among the various Affiliates of the Parties) which is consistent with the economic result contemplated herein, consistent to the extent feasible with each Party’s internal structures and procedures, and not adverse to the Parties financial, economic, or tax positions. 

	
7.21
	
Resolution of Financial Disputes.  If a Party has a dispute, claim or controversy relating to calculation or reconciliation of (i) Shared Development Costs or (ii) (a)Net Sales, (b) Allowable Expenses, or (c) Other Income, as each (a) through (c) relates to the calculation or reconciliation under the Pre-Tax Profit or Loss Schedule, such Party shall provide such other Party with a written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the nature and factual basis for such good-faith dispute and each Party agrees that it shall seek to resolve such dispute within [***] Business Days within the Financial Working Group after the date such written notice is received.  If no such resolution is reached by the Parties, the dispute shall be referred to the JSC for resolution, and if the JSC is unable to reach resolution within [***] Business Days, then the dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.22.  

55

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

		
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligation to pay any reasonably disputed amount shall not be deemed to have been triggered until such dispute is resolved hereunder, provided that any undisputed portion of such payment shall be paid by the paying Party in accordance with the payment terms set forth in this Agreement.  Any disputed portion of any payment shall be paid by the responsible Party within [***] days after the date on which the Financial Working Group or JSC, as applicable, resolves the dispute.

	
7.22
	
Specific Finance Disputes.  If the Parties are unable to reach a mutually acceptable resolution of any dispute falling within Section 7.21 as set forth therein, the dispute shall be submitted for resolution to a certified public accounting firm jointly selected by each Party’s certified public accountants or to such other Person as the Parties shall mutually agree (the “Finance Expert”).  The decision of the Finance Expert shall be final, and the costs of such dispute resolution shall be borne by the Party that the Finance Expert has determined owes an amount to the other Party.  Any amounts owed by one Party to the other Party as a result of such resolution shall be paid or reimbursed by the owing Party within [***] days following the applicable decision of the Finance Expert. 

	
7.23
	
Commercialization of Companion Diagnostics.Reasonably in advance of GSK, or its Affiliates desiring to make a Companion Diagnostic (that is owned or Controlled by GSK or its Affiliates) available for patients in order to generate separate material financial benefit from any Licensed Product, GSK shall notify IDEAYA in writing thereof, and, as a condition of such use, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith on an amendment to this Agreement such that IDEAYA will receive an equitable economic benefit based on revenues generated by such Companion Diagnostic, in consideration of IDEAYA’s grant of licenses under this Agreement and payment of Development Costs for the Development of such Companion Diagnostic in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.    

ARTICLE 8
MAT2A Option; Licenses

	
8.1
	
MAT2A Option; License.  Commencing on the Effective Date, IDEAYA hereby grants to GSK the exclusive option to obtain an exclusive, sublicensable (through multiple tiers and in accordance with this Agreement) license under the IDEAYA Technology to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale and import MAT2A Compounds and MAT2A Products in the Field in the Territory (the “Option”).  GSK may exercise the Option at any time commencing on the Effective Date and (i) if the MAT2A Combination Study has not been Initiated prior to the Option Package Delivery Date, expiring on the date which is [***] after the Option Package Delivery Date, or (ii) if the MAT2A Combination Study has been Initiated prior to the Option Package Delivery Date, expiring [***] after the Option Package Delivery Date  (the time period until such expiration of GSK’s right to exercise the Option, the “Exercise Period”).  To exercise such Option (the “Option Exercise”), GSK shall provide written notice indicating such exercise to IDEAYA prior to expiration of the Exercise Period.  The first day on which all of the following have occurred shall be deemed the “Option Closing Date”:  (1) IDEAYA has received such notice of Option Exercise, (2) the HSR Clearance Date has occurred or is deemed inapplicable in accordance with Section 7.6, and (3) IDEAYA has received the Option Fee in accordance with 

56

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

		
Section 7.6.  Prior to GSK’s Option Exercise, during the Exercise Period IDEAYA shall (a) disclose to GSK, or make available to GSK by granting to GSK designated personnel access to a virtual data room containing, further Data (in addition to that required under the Option Data Package) including  preclinical, clinical, toxicology, CMC, regulatory documentation necessary for GSK to conduct diligence  (the “MAT2A Program Diligence Data”) within [***] days after the Option Package Delivery Date, and (b) as reasonably requested by GSK, provide GSK with reasonable consultation and assistance to the extent necessary or reasonably useful for GSK to understand and conduct diligence on the Option Data Package and MAT2A Program Diligence Data in a manner and on such timelines to enable GSK to make an informed decision in respect of the Option.  Effective solely upon the Option Closing Date (if applicable), IDEAYA shall grant and hereby grants to GSK and its Affiliates an exclusive, royalty-bearing, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license under the IDEAYA Technology to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale and import MAT2A Compounds and MAT2A Products in the Field in the Territory during the Term.  For clarity, GSK acknowledges and agrees that Section 6.2.8 shall apply if GSK does not timely exercise the Option during the Exercise Period and the Option Closing Date does not occur. 

	
8.2
	
License Grants to GSK.  

	
8.2.1
	
IDEAYA hereby grants to GSK and its Affiliates, as of the Effective Date, an exclusive, royalty-bearing, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license under the IDEAYA Technology to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale and import (a) WRN Compounds and WRN Products, and (b) POLQ Compounds and POLQ Products, in each case of (a) and (b) in the Field in the Territory during the Term; provided that IDEAYA reserves the right under all such IDEAYA Technology to conduct activities assigned to it under the relevant Collaboration Plan for the WRN Program and POLQ Program; and provided further that such reservation of rights shall terminate upon completion of the WRN Program and POLQ Program, respectively.    

	
8.2.2
	
IDEAYA hereby grants to GSK and its Affiliates, as of the Effective Date and solely to the extent that it is agreed in the Collaboration Plan applicable to the MAT2A Program that GSK shall conduct GSK MAT2A Preclinical Activities, a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to IDEAYA Technology solely to the extent necessary for GSK’s performance of such GSK MAT2A Preclinical Activities under the relevant Collaboration Plan for the MAT2A Program, and for no other purpose whatsoever.  The foregoing license shall expire on the earlier to occur of (a) the Option Closing Date; (b) expiration of the Option Period without exercise of the Option; or (c) completion by GSK of the GSK MAT2A Preclinical Activities under the relevant Collaboration Plan for the MAT2A Program.  The foregoing license shall be sublicensable to GSK’s Affiliates and subcontractors solely to the extent such Affiliates and subcontractors are performing any of the GSK MAT2A Preclinical Activities on behalf of GSK under the relevant Collaboration Plan for the MAT2A Program.  For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing license does not include the right to conduct the MAT2A Combination Study and any license to IDEAYA Technology required for the conduct of the MAT2A Combination Study shall be as set forth in the MAT2A CTCSA.

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

	
8.3
	
License Grant to IDEAYA.  GSK hereby grants to IDEAYA as of the Effective Date, a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license under the GSK Technology solely for the purpose of (i) IDEAYA’s performance of its assigned activities under the relevant Collaboration Plan for the applicable Collaboration Program.  The forgoing licenses are sublicensable to IDEAYA’s Affiliates, Sublicensees, and subcontractors.  

	
8.4
	
Sublicenses.  Each Party shall have the right to grant sublicenses to its Affiliates and shall have the further right to grant sublicenses to Third Parties (each, a “Sublicensee”), and any such sublicenses shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this ARTICLE 8.  Any and all sublicenses shall be in writing and shall be subject to, and consistent with, the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to Sublicensees.  Each Party shall be responsible for ensuring the compliance of its Sublicensees with all obligations owed to the other Party under this Agreement, shall remain liable to the other Party for all acts and omissions of such Sublicensees and shall remain responsible for performance of all of its obligations to the other Party hereunder.  Neither Party’s grant of any sublicense will not relieve such Party or its Affiliates from any of its obligations under this Agreement.  To the extent GSK grants an exclusive sublicense to any Sublicensee of any rights exclusively licensed from IDEAYA hereunder (an “Exclusive Sublicense”), GSK shall promptly notify IDEAYA thereof and shall promptly thereafter provide IDEAYA with a copy of such Exclusive Sublicense, which copy may be reasonably redact the detailed financial terms of such Exclusive Sublicense agreement and which is deemed Confidential Information of GSK.  As a condition precedent to and requirement of any such Exclusive Sublicense, if sales by such Sublicensee are included in Net Sales hereunder, such Sublicensee shall permit audit rights with respect to its reporting of Net Sales that are consistent with those given by GSK hereunder with respect to its sales included in Net Sales.

	
8.5
	
No Implied Licenses; Retained Rights.  Each Party acknowledges that the licenses granted under this ARTICLE 8 are limited to the scope expressly granted, and all other rights to Patents and Know-How licensed hereunder are expressly reserved to the Party granting the license to such Patents or Know-How.  Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that where an exclusive license under Patents or Know-How is granted to a Party under this ARTICLE 8 for a particular purpose, the Party granting such license retains all of its rights to such Patents or Know-How for all purposes not expressly licensed.

	
8.6
	
Rights in Bankruptcy.  The Parties intend to take advantage of the protections of Section 365(n) (or any successor provision) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.  All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement, but only to the extent they constitute licenses of a right to “intellectual property” as defined in Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, shall be deemed to be “intellectual property” for the purposes of Section 365(n) or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction.  The non-bankrupt Party shall retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction, including the right to obtain such intellectual property from another entity.  In the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against a Party under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction, the non-bankrupt Party shall be entitled to a complete duplicate

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

		
of (or complete access to, as appropriate) all such intellectual property (including all embodiments of such intellectual property), which, if not already in the non-bankrupt Party’s possession, shall be promptly delivered to it upon its’s written request (a) upon commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding, unless the bankrupt Party continues to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement, or (b) if not delivered pursuant to clause (a) because the bankrupt continues to perform, upon the rejection of this Agreement by or on behalf of the bankrupt Party.  Unless and until the bankrupt Party rejects this Agreement, the bankrupt Party shall perform this Agreement or provide such intellectual property (including all embodiments of such intellectual property) to the non-bankrupt Party, and shall not interfere with the rights of the non-bankrupt Party to such intellectual property, including the right to obtain the intellectual property from another entity.  In the case of an insolvency that is governed by non-U.S. bankruptcy law, the Parties agree that, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable insolvency law, the non-bankrupt Party will be entitled to at least the same rights and protections afforded by the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, including survival of the licenses granted hereunder even if the bankrupt Party revokes or terminates this Agreement and a copy of the embodiments of such intellectual property, without conditions other than any legally required payment of royalties.  

ARTICLE 9
CONFIDENTIALITY; Publications and Presentations

	
9.1
	
Confidentiality.  Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, during the Term and for a period of ten (10) years following termination or expiration thereof (provided that with respect to any such Confidential Information which constitutes a bona fide trade secret of such Party as specifically identified by such Party as a trade secret to the other Party, in writing during the Term, such obligations shall continue for as long as such Confidential Information remains a trade secret), each Party will be obligated to keep confidential and not publish or otherwise disclose to a Third Party, and not to use, directly or indirectly, for any purpose, any Confidential Information furnished or otherwise made known to it, directly or indirectly, by the other Party, except to the extent such disclosure or use is expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement or is reasonably necessary or useful for the performance of a Party’s obligations, or the exercise of such Party’s rights under, this Agreement.  The confidentiality and non-use obligations with respect to a Party’s Confidential Information in this Section 9.1 will not include any information that:

	
9.1.1
	
is or becomes part of the public domain through no wrongful act, fault or negligence on the part of the Receiving Party;

	
9.1.2
	
can be demonstrated by competent proof to have been in the Receiving Party’s possession prior to initial disclosure by the Disclosing Party without any obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information;

	
9.1.3
	
is subsequently received by the Receiving Party from a Third Party who is not bound by any obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information;

59

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

	
9.1.4
	
has been published by a Third Party or otherwise enters the public domain through no fault of the Receiving Party in breach of its contractual obligations to the Disclosing Party; or

	
9.1.5
	
can be demonstrated by competent proof to have been independently developed (outside the scope of this Agreement) by or for the Receiving Party without reference to or use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

	
9.2
	
Authorized Disclosure.  The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent that such disclosure is:

	
(a)
	
made in response to a valid order of a court or other governmental authority or, if in the reasonable opinion of the Receiving Party’s legal counsel, such disclosure is otherwise required by Applicable Law, including by reason of filing with securities regulators; provided that the Receiving Party shall, where practicable, first have given notice to the Disclosing Party and given the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to quash such order or to obtain a protective order or confidential treatment; and provided further that the Confidential Information disclosed in response to such court or governmental order shall be limited to that information which is legally required to be disclosed in response to such court or governmental order;

	
(b)
	
made by or on behalf of the Receiving Party to Regulatory Authorities as required in connection with any filing, application or request for Regulatory Approval for the Licensed Products as permitted by this Agreement; provided that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information to the extent practicable and consistent with Applicable Law;

	
(c)
	
made by or on behalf of the Receiving Party to a patent authority as may be reasonably necessary or useful for purposes of obtaining a Patent as permitted by this Agreement; provided that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information, to the extent such protection is available; or

	
(d)
	
made by the Receiving Party to its attorneys, auditors, advisors, consultants, contractors, existing or prospective collaboration partners, licensees, sublicensees, existing or prospective investors, prospective acquirers, prospective lenders or other Third Parties as may be necessary in connection with the performance of this Agreement, in each case, for limited purposes; provided that such persons shall be subject to obligations of confidentiality and non-use with respect to such Confidential Information substantially similar to the obligations of confidentiality and non-use of the Receiving Party set forth herein.

	
9.3
	
Injunctive Relief.  Each Party, as a Receiving Party, acknowledges and agrees that due to the unique nature of a Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, there may be no adequate remedy at law for any breach of its obligations hereunder and that any such breach may allow a Receiving Party or Third Parties unfairly to compete with the Disclosing Party, resulting in irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party.  Therefore, notwithstanding the provisions

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

		
of Section 15.1, the Parties agree that upon any such breach or any threat thereof, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief at the Disclosing Party’s option in either (a) a court of competent jurisdiction where such Disclosing Party resides, or (b) as provided in Section 15.1, as applicable, in addition to whatever remedies it might have at law in connection with any breach or enforcement of a Receiving Party’s obligations hereunder for the unauthorized use or release of any such Confidential Information.

	
9.4
	
Data Breach.  When transferring Confidential Information, all communications between GSK and IDEAYA will use encryption methods agreed to by the Parties.  Upon discovering any suspected or actual unauthorized disclosure, loss or theft of Confidential Information (a “Data Security Breach”) IDEAYA will send an e-mail to [***] notifying GSK, and upon discovering any suspected or actual Data Security Breach, GSK will send an e-mail to [***], notifying IDEAYA.  The Parties shall work with each other in good faith to identify a root cause and remediate the Data Security Breach.  

	
9.5
	
Press Releases and Other Public Statements.  Both Parties shall keep the terms of this Agreement confidential and such terms shall be treated as Confidential Information of both Parties in accordance with this ARTICLE 9 (and for clarity subject to Section 9.2), except that each Party may make the publications and presentations described in Sections 9.6 through 9.8 on the terms set forth therein, and each Party may (a) issue a public announcement of the execution of this Agreement in a form attached hereto as Schedule 9.5; (b) disclose the content of the Agreement to existing or prospective attorneys, auditors, advisors, consultants, contractors, existing or prospective collaboration partners, licensees, sublicensees, existing or prospective shareholders, investors, prospective acquirers, or prospective lenders for limited purposes under obligations of confidentiality and non-use no less restrictive than those in this Agreement; (c) disclose the content as necessary to subcontractors, sublicensees and other bona fide collaboration partners under obligations of confidentiality and non-use similar to those in this Agreement; or (d) as necessary as required by securities regulators, the rules of any stock exchange or as part of any listing of the securities of IDEAYA or GSK on any stock exchange.  Neither Party will use the other’s name or logo in any press release or product advertising, or for any other promotional purpose, without first obtaining the other's written consent and entering into appropriate trademark or housemark licenses, as applicable.  Any public announcement to be made in accordance with this Section 9.5 will be provided by the publishing Party to the other Party at least [***] days prior to its scheduled release; provided that, if the Party proposing such public announcement cannot provide the reviewing Party with [***] days’ notice due to extraordinary circumstances, such Party will use reasonable efforts to provide the reviewing Party with the proposed public statement for comment at least [***] hours before release.  Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 9.5, a Party may make subsequent public announcements or press releases of solely of information previously publicly disclosed in accordance with this ARTICLE 9 without the advance written consent of the other Party, so long as (i) such subsequent public announcements or press releases are released without changes to the substantive information provided therein, (ii) are released within [***] months of the original release, and (iii) the information provided therein is still considered accurate and has not been superseded by other subsequent information known by IDEAYA. 

61

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

	
9.6
	
Publications by GSK.  Subject to this Section 9.6 and Section 9.7, as between the Parties, GSK shall control all scientific publications relating to all activities undertaken under this Agreement after completion of each Collaboration Program and after the Option Closing Date (if applicable) for the relevant Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products, which publications shall not require the prior written approval of IDEAYA.  For clarity, except as may be set forth in the MAT2A CTCSA, GSK shall not publish any information regarding the activities conducted under the MAT2A Program or during the Interim MAT2A Operating Period without the prior written approval of IDEAYA, and IDEAYA shall have the right to make such publications and other disclosures about its activities conducted under the MAT2A Program or Interim MAT2A Operating Period at its sole discretion. 

	
9.6.1
	
If GSK or its employees or consultants (such as clinical investigators) wish to publish or publicly present any information about a Licensed Product or the results of any activities relating to the research or development of a Licensed Product, which publication contains any of IDEAYA’s Confidential Information, it shall deliver to IDEAYA a copy of the proposed written publication or an outline of an oral disclosure at least [***] days ([***] days in the case of abstracts) prior to submission for publication or presentation.  IDEAYA shall respond in writing promptly and in no event later than [***] days ([***] days in the case of abstracts) after receipt of the proposed material, and may have the right to propose modifications to the publication or presentation for confidentiality reasons, or request a reasonable delay in publication or presentation in order to protect patentable information.  If IDEAYA requests a delay to protect patentable information, GSK shall delay submission or presentation for a period not to exceed [***] days to enable relevant patent applications to be filed.  Upon expiration of such [***] days, GSK will be free to proceed with the publication or presentation.  If IDEAYA reasonably requests modifications to the publication or presentation to prevent disclosure of IDEAYA Confidential Information, GSK shall edit such publication to prevent the disclosure of such information prior to submission of the publication or presentation.

under the “U.S. Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984” (the “Hatch-Waxman Act”) where a response is required under Applicable Law (in order to avoid waiving rights), such Party shall provide notice as quickly as possible and in no event later than [***] days prior to the applicable deadline for filing a response.  For clarity, any certification filed under the Hatch-Waxman Act shall constitute an Infringement for the purposes of this Agreement.

	
10.3.2
	
Enforcement and Recoveries.  

	
(a)
	
The Controlling Party shall have the initial right, but not the obligation, to pursue and direct enforcement of the applicable Subject Patent against such Infringement.  If the Controlling Party decides not to abate such Infringement by way of enforcing one of more applicable Subject Patents against the relevant Third Parties, the Controlling Party shall inform the other Party of such decision in writing no later than [***] days after such Controlling Party first becomes aware of such Infringement.  Upon receiving such notice from the Controlling Party, or if no such action to abate such Infringement is taken by the Controlling Party within such [***] day time period, the other Party shall thereafter immediately become deemed the Controlling Party for the purposes of this Section 10.3.2.  The Controlling Party will keep the other Party reasonably informed through the Patent Liaisons on a regular basis regarding, and provide such other Party with reasonable opportunity to consult and comment on, all enforcement activities in respect of the Subject Patents.  The non-Controlling Party shall have the right, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws and procedural rules to join, at its own cost and using its own counsel, as a party to the enforcement actions included in such enforcement activities.  

(1)Any damages or other monetary awards recovered from the settlement of or judgment from such enforcement actions shall be allocated first to reimburse the Parties for the costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with such enforcement actions (excluding any cost of separate counsel engaged by the non-Controlling Party pursuant to the preceding sentence).  Any amounts remaining will be allocated between the Parties as follows: (i) with respect to Infringement in the Profit-Sharing Territory by a Competing Product in relation to WRN Products or MAT2A Products so long as IDEAYA has not exercised the IDEAYA Opt-Out with respect to the applicable Licensed Product, then in a manner consistent with the applicable split of Pre-Tax Profit and Loss; (ii) with respect to Infringement in the Net Sales Territory by a Competing Product in relation to WRN Products or MAT2A Products, Infringement in the Profit-Sharing Territory by a Competing Product in relation to WRN Products or MAT2A Products if IDEAYA has exercised the IDEAYA Opt-Out with respect to the applicable Licensed Product, or Infringement in the Territory by a Competing Product in relation to POLQ Products, then (X) if GSK is the Controlling Party, to GSK with IDEAYA receiving a royalty on the recovery proceeds in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.12 and (Y) if IDEAYA is the Controlling Party, then [***] to IDEAYA and [***] to GSK; and (iii) with respect to Infringement in the Territory that is not by a Competing Product but against which a Joint Arising Patent is nevertheless enforced by the Controlling Party, then such amounts shall be shared equally by the Parties.  

	
(b)
	
GSK shall have the right to pursue and direct, at its own cost, enforcement of all GSK Patents.  Any damages or other monetary awards recovered from the settlement of or judgment from such enforcement actions shall be allocated to GSK.

10.3.3
	
Cooperation.  If the Controlling Party brings an enforcement action or proceeding in accordance with Section 10.3.2, then the other Party shall cooperate as reasonably requested in the pursuit of such enforcement action, including if necessary by joining as a party to any such enforcement action for which it is a necessary or indispensable party or taking such other actions as are necessary for standing, furnishing a power of attorney, or for the Controlling Party to otherwise maintain or pursue such enforcement action effectively and expeditiously. 

	
10.3.4
	
Settlement with a Third Party.  The Controlling Party that is controlling an enforcement action shall also have the right to control the settlement of such enforcement action; provided that the Controlling Party shall not settle such enforcement action in any way that imposes a monetary obligation upon the other Party or its Affiliates, or in any way that narrows the scope of, or admits the unenforceability or invalidity of Patents Controlled by the other Party or its Affiliates, or of Patents within the Joint Arising Technology, in all cases without such other Party’s prior written consent.

Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of (a) any allegation by a Third Party that any Development, Manufacture or Commercialization or other activities with respect to any Licensed Product infringes or misappropriates or may infringe or misappropriate the intellectual property rights of such Third Party (a “Third Party Infringement Claim”).  Each Party shall have the right to control the defense of the Third Party Infringement Claim brought against such Party. 

	
10.4.2
	
Cooperation; Settlement.  Each Party shall keep the other Party reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any Third Party Infringement Claim through the Patent Liaisons.  Such Party shall provide the other Party with copies of all filings by or correspondence from the counterparty(ies) in any suit or proceeding relating to such Third Party Infringement Claim, and with copies of proposed filings to be filed or material correspondence to be delivered to such counterparty(ies) by the Party defending such Third Party Infringement Claim in such proceedings at least [***] days prior to the anticipated filing or delivery date thereof for the other Party to comment on, and the Party defending such Third Party Infringement Claim shall take all such comments received under good faith consideration.  The Party defending such Third Party Infringement Claim may enter into a settlement or compromise of any Third Party Infringement Claim, provided that, if such settlement or compromise would admit liability on the part of the other Party or any of its Affiliates or would otherwise have a material adverse effect on the rights or interests of the other Party or its Affiliates (including by imposing any monetary obligation upon the other Party or its Affiliates or by limiting the scope of or admitting the unenforceability or invalidity of Patents owned or exclusively licensed by the other Party or its Affiliates), then such Party shall not enter into such settlement or compromise without the prior written consent of the other Party.  Any counterclaims of Infringement shall be handled as set forth in Section 10.3.

	
10.4.3
	
Costs; Recoveries.  All out-of-pocket expenses incurred by a Party in defending a Third Party Infringement Claim (including outside counsel fees), and all amounts

GSK will have sole decision-making authority with respect to the determination of whether or not to submit IDEAYA Existing Patents, IDEAYA Arising Patents, Patents within the Joint Arising Technology, or any GSK Patent, in each case, which Patents claim or cover a POLQ Product, WRN Product, or, and solely as of and after the Option Closing Date, if applicable, the MAT2A Product to the applicable regulatory authorities for listing in the Orange Book as required under the Hatch-Waxman Act. 

ARTICLE 11
Term and Termination

	
11.1
	
Term.  This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to this ARTICLE 11, shall remain in effect until it expires (the “Term”) as follows: 

	
11.1.1
	
on a Licensed Product–by–Licensed Product and country-by-country basis, this Agreement shall expire on the date of the expiration of all applicable Royalty Terms or Profit-Sharing Terms with respect to such Licensed Product in such country; and

respect to Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products directed to a given Target on a per Target basis (e.g. POLQ, WRN, or, solely if the Option Closing Date occurs, MAT2A) if there is an uncured material breach of this Agreement by the other Party with respect to such Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products directed to such Target.  To exercise its termination rights under this Section 11.2, the non-breaching Party shall provide to the breaching Party with written notice, identifying the material breach in reasonable detail and whether the non-breaching Party is intending to terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products with respect to one or more Targets.  If such breaching Party, upon receiving such written notice identifying such material breach in reasonable detail, fails to cure such material breach within sixty (60) days after the date of such notice of breach is received (or if such breach is curable but cannot reasonably be cured within such sixty (60) day period, then within such reasonable period thereafter as is required to cure such breach), then this Agreement with respect to such particular Target against which the relevant Licensed Product and Licensed Compounds are directed shall terminate, unless there is a good faith dispute with respect to the existence of a material breach or whether such material breach has been cured, and if such alleged breach or failure to cure is contested in good faith by the alleged breaching Party in writing within sixty (60) days of the delivery of the breach notice, then the dispute resolution procedure pursuant to Section 15.1, may be initiated by either Party to determine whether a material breach or a failure to cure has actually occurred.  If either Party so initiates the dispute resolution procedure, then the applicable cure period (and the corresponding termination of this Agreement, in whole or in part), shall be tolled until such time as the dispute is resolved pursuant to Section 15.1.

	
11.3

name, or directs a Third Party to assert, an action challenging the validity, scope, or enforceability of any Patent within the IDEAYA Technology with respect to a Target (including a Licensed Compound or Licensed Product relating to such Target) (including for clarity within the relevant Joint Arising Technology) that is then exclusively licensed to GSK under this Agreement (each, a “Patent Challenge” relating to such Target), IDEAYA may terminate this Agreement with respect to such Target (and all Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products relating to such Target) upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to GSK if GSK does not withdraw, or cause to be withdrawn, such Patent Challenge within such thirty (30) day period.  Further, this Section 11.5 shall not apply to any Affiliates of GSK that first become Affiliates of GSK after the Effective Date in connection with a merger or acquisition event, where such Affiliates of GSK were already engaged in a Patent Challenge prior to such merger or acquisition event, so long as GSK causes such Patent Challenge to terminate within sixty (60) days after such merger or acquisition event.

ARTICLE 12
Effects of Expiration or Termination

	
12.1
	
Accrued Obligations.  Expiration or termination of this Agreement (in whole or in part) for any reason shall not release either Party from any liability that, at the time of such expiration or termination, has already accrued to the other Party or that is attributable to a period prior to such expiration or termination, nor will any early termination of this Agreement preclude either Party from pursuing any and all rights and remedies it may have under this Agreement, or at law or in equity, with respect to breach of this Agreement.

	
12.2
	
Effects of Termination by GSK for Convenience, or by IDEAYA for GSK Insolvency or Material Breach or Patent Challenge.  If (x) this Agreement is terminated by IDEAYA in its entirety or with respect to one or more Targets against which the relevant Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products are directed as a result of GSK’s uncured material breach, GSK’s bankruptcy, or a Patent Challenge or (y) GSK terminates this Agreement in its entirety or with respect to one or more Collaboration Programs or Licensed Products for convenience (upon any termination under the foregoing clause (x) or (y), then all such terminated Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products directed to such Target shall be deemed “Terminated Compounds” and “Terminated Products”, respectively), and the following will apply:

(a)License Termination.  All licenses granted to GSK under this Agreement with respect to the Terminated Compounds and Terminated Products shall be terminated and of no further force and effect, except to the extent necessary to effect the transition set forth in Section 12.2(c). 

(b)Summary of Activities.  Within [***] days after the effective date of such termination, GSK shall provide to IDEAYA a reasonably detailed, accurate summary report of the status and results of its (and its Affiliates’ and Sublicensees’) material Development, Manufacturing and Commercialization activities directed to the Terminated Compounds and Terminated Products prior to the effective date of such termination.

SCHEDULE 7.4.1

 

PRE-TAX PROFIT AND LOSS SCHEDULE

 

A.General Principles

Pre-Tax Profit or Loss for the Profit-Sharing Territory shall be calculated in accordance with this Schedule 7.4.1 and shall exclude capital expenditures, and any other cost not specifically included in Allowable Expenses, including, by way of example, costs attributable to general corporate activities, executive management, investor relations, treasury services, business development, corporate government relations, external financial reporting and other overhead.  

Principles for Calculation of Pre-Tax Profit or Loss 

	
1.
	
Pre-Tax Profit or Loss shall be calculated for each Calendar Quarter by determining the Net Sales of the applicable Licensed Product in the Profit-Sharing Territory, adding any Other Income and subtracting Allowable Expenses directly attributable and reasonably allocable to such Licensed Product incurred during such Calendar Quarter (the “Pre-Tax Profit or Loss”).

	
2.
	
No cost item shall be allocated to more than one cost category, i.e., Net Sales or Allowable Expenses (or any cost item within Net Sales (such as governmental and other rebates) or Allowable Expenses, such as Health Care Reform Fees, etc.).

	
3.
	
Costs incurred by GSK in connection with Commercialization shall be allocated to the appropriate category of Allowable Expenses in accordance with GSK’s customary practices for its other products.

	
4.
	
Where GSK incurs costs under this Agreement that apply to more than one Licensed Product as well as products or programs that are not included under this Agreement then GSK shall make an equitable allocation of such costs between all of such Licensed Products and other programs and products as applicable, in accordance with GSK’s Accounting Standards such that the applicable Licensed Product does not bear a disproportionate portion of such costs.

	
5.
	
All undefined terms shall be construed in accordance with GSK’s Accounting Standards, but only to the extent consistent with their usage and the other definitions in this Schedule 7.4.1 and the Agreement.  To the extent reasonably requested by IDEAYA, GSK shall provide IDEAYA the appropriate back-up detail for Pre-Tax Profit or Loss to enable IDEAYA to state its share of such Pre-Tax Profit or Loss in its applicable Accounting Standard.  In addition, following the Effective Date, each Party shall consider in good faith reasonable procedures proposed by the other Party for sharing financial information in accordance with Section B below and in order to permit each Party to close its books periodically in a timely manner.

 

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

	
6.
	
The Parties shall comply with any reporting requirements under Applicable Law (including securities law).  For the avoidance of doubt, income and withholding Taxes imposed on either of the Parties shall not be included in the calculation of Pre-Tax Profit or Loss.

	
7.
	
Nothing in this Schedule 7.4.1 will apply to any Licensed Product for which the Parties are not sharing Pre-Tax Profit or Loss.

B.Reconciliation Procedures. 

1.Reporting.

(a)Reporting Generally.  On a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, within [***] days after the end of each Calendar Quarter beginning with the first Calendar Quarter in which the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product occurs, GSK shall provide to the Financial Working Group a report of its calculation of actual Pre-Tax Profit or Loss with respect to such Licensed Product for such Calendar Quarter (each, a “Financial Report”), in such reporting format as the Financial Working Group shall mutually agree upon for use, which reporting format shall be consistent with the categories calculated by GSK in accordance with its Accounting Standards; provided that a preliminary estimate of the Pre-Tax Profit or Loss, in a format agreed by the Financial Working Group, shall be provided by GSK within [***] days following the end of the Calendar Quarter for purposes of financial statement close process and that the Financial Report of GSK’s calculation of Pre-Tax Profit or Loss for the Calendar Quarter in which the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product occurs will include any Allowable Expenses incurred by GSK with respect to such Licensed Product prior to such Calendar Quarter (i.e., Allowable Expenses associated with Launch Preparation Activities).  Each Financial Report shall specify in reasonable detail, as applicable, the Net Sales, Other Income and Allowable Expenses for such Licensed Product in the corresponding Calendar Quarter received and incurred by GSK or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees in accordance with this Agreement in such Calendar Quarter.  If requested by IDEAYA or by the Financial Working Group, GSK will promptly provide invoices or other supporting documentation in sufficient detail to permit IDEAYA to confirm the accuracy of the reported cost.  GSK will work to ensure that there will be separate invoices with respect to expenses and income so that accounting can be allocated appropriately to activities with respect to Licensed Products for sale in the Profit-Sharing Territory for purposes of calculating Pre-Tax Profit or Loss.

(b)Net Sales Reporting.  Within [***] days after the end of each Calendar Quarter, GSK shall provide the Financial Working Group with a report of the Net Sales for such Calendar Quarter on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis in the Profit-Sharing Territory in the same format as provided in Section 7.12.6 of the Agreement; provided that a preliminary estimate of the Net Sales for the Calendar Quarter, in a format agreed by the Financial Working Group, shall be provided by GSK within [***] days following the end of the Calendar Quarter for purposes of financial statement close process.

(c)Estimates.  For clarity, the foregoing estimates set forth in Sections B.1(a) and B.1(b) may be based on forecasted numbers and the Parties agree that the final Pre-Tax Profit or Loss or Net Sales, as applicable, reported in the Financial Reports may differ from this estimate.

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

 2.Overruns.  

(a)GSK shall notify IDEAYA promptly after becoming aware that the anticipated Allowable Expenses to be incurred by GSK for a Licensed Product for a given Calendar Year shall be in excess of the applicable approved Commercialization Budget for such Licensed Product for such Calendar Year.

(b)Following such notification, the Financial Working Group shall discuss the causes of any such increase and evaluate potential mitigation measures to prevent a further increase of Allowable Expenses, as applicable.  To the extent, based on this discussion, the Financial Working Group mutually concludes that the anticipated amount of the concerned category of Allowable Expenses is likely not to exceed [***] of the amounts budgeted (the “Commercialization Permitted Overage”) to be incurred by or on behalf of GSK for its activities for the Licensed Product in such Calendar Year as set forth in the then-current applicable Commercialization Budget, then such anticipated costs or expenses shall be included in the calculation of the applicable Allowable Expenses for the purposes of calculating the Pre-Tax Profit or Loss hereunder.

(c)If the Financial Working Group, in consultation with the JSC, mutually concludes that the anticipated amount of the applicable Allowable Expenses is likely to exceed the Commercialization Permitted Overage (such amount the “Commercialization Excess Costs”) and there are no mitigation measures to prevent such Commercialization Excess Costs, then such Commercialization Excess Costs shall not be included in the calculation of the applicable Allowable Expenses for the purposes of calculating the Pre-Tax Profit or Loss, unless mutually agreed by the Parties through the JSC to be shared. 

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Allowable Expenses that are incurred by GSK as a result of GSK’s failure to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts in connection with performing its obligations hereunder or due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of GSK or its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or Third Party contractors, whether or not such Allowable Expenses are in excess of [***] of the applicable Commercialization Budget for the applicable Calendar Quarter, shall be borne entirely by GSK.  Further, to the extent that Commercialization Excess Costs are directly attributable to and required by a change in Applicable Laws, a requirement of a Regulatory Authority, a change required to mitigate a safety issue or a Force Majeure event, or are otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, then such Commercialization Excess Costs shall not be borne solely by GSK and shall be included in the calculation of the applicable Allowable Expenses.

3.Reconciliation and Payment.

(a)Reconciliation Discussion.  If IDEAYA has any questions or concerns regarding the calculation of Pre-Tax Profit or Loss reported by GSK in a Financial Report, the Financial Working Group shall endeavor to resolve such questions and concerns within [***] days after the end of each Calendar Quarter.  Additionally, the Financial Working Group may by mutual agreement adjust the timing for notification and/or payment of any reconciliation payments hereunder.

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

(b)Quarterly Reconciliation Payment.  Unless such timing is otherwise modified by mutual agreement of the Financial Working Group, within [***] Business Days after receipt of the Financial Report provided pursuant to Section B.1(a) above, the Financial Working Group shall confer and mutually agree in writing on a reconciliation report setting out the calculation of any payment to be paid by IDEAYA to GSK or by GSK to IDEAYA, as the case may be (in each case, the “Balancing Payment”) to effect the sharing of Pre-Tax Profit or Loss in accordance with Section 7.4.1 of the Agreement.  In the event of any dispute regarding any Balancing Payment due, the Parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve the dispute provided that, if not so resolved within [***] additional Business Days, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Sections 7.21 and 7.22 of the Agreement.  Each Party that is owed a Balancing Payment shall invoice the other Party for the amount of the Balancing Payment due and the other Party shall pay such invoiced amount within [***] days after such invoice is delivered; provided that, in the event of any dispute regarding the Balancing Payment due, the undisputed portion of such Balancing Payment shall be paid in accordance with the foregoing timetable by the applicable Party, and the remaining, disputed portion shall be paid in accordance with Sections 7.21 and 7.22 of the Agreement.

C.Financial Definitions

The following definitions, along with capitalized terms that are defined elsewhere in the Agreement, shall apply for the purposes of calculating Pre-Tax Profit or Loss.  If a financial term is not defined in this Schedule 7.4.1, or elsewhere in the Agreement, then such term shall, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, be defined by mutual agreement of the Financial Working Group.  For purposes of the following definitions, the terms “costs” and “expenses” shall mean all direct Third Party invoiced costs and Commercial FTE Costs, unless otherwise expressly provided herein.  Additionally, in no event shall a particular cost or expense (i) be counted more than once as part of calculating Allowable Expenses, even if falling under more than one category of Allowable Expense hereunder or (ii) be counted separately as an Allowable Expense if otherwise already accounted for as part of determining Allowable Expenses. 

“Allowable Expenses” means the sum of the following costs and expenses incurred during the Term by GSK or its Affiliates, in the conduct of Commercialization of the applicable Licensed Products for the Profit-Sharing Territory in accordance with this Agreement during the applicable Calendar Quarter, each to the extent incurred and recorded as an expense in accordance with the applicable Accounting Standards:

[***].

Allowable Expenses shall include, subject the annual Commercialization Budget, all Third Party invoiced expenses as well as Commercial FTE Costs reasonably necessary and directly attributable and reasonably allocable to the Licensed Products for sale in the Profit-Sharing Territory, either direct expenses or expenses that shall be allocated based on a percent of effort, costs driver, or other reasonable basis used in the normal course of business.  Upon request by either Party, the Financial Working Group shall review the methodology used to allocate expenses in connection with the calculation of Allowable Expenses.  If the Financial Working Group does not approve such methodology, the Financial Working Group shall mutually agree upon a revised methodology.  Notwithstanding any other clauses in this Schedule 7.4.1, Allowable Expenses shall 

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

exclude costs that result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of GSK or its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or Third Party contractors.  “Net Sales” and “Other Income” shall not include any deductions that are included in “Allowable Expenses”.  No Development Cost item may also be an Allowable Expense item, and vice-versa.   

“[***]” means amounts [***] to the extent consistent with GSK’s or its Affiliate’s business practices for its other products, if not deducted [***], and provided that any amounts actually [***] shall be deducted from Allowable Expenses. 

“[***]” means, as applicable with respect to any period, the FTE Rate(s) for Commercialization activities other than Commercial Manufacture, multiplied by the number of FTEs directly relating to performing such Commercialization activities in accordance with the applicable Commercialization Plan under this Agreement, during such period.

“[***]” means Manufacturing Costs directly attributable and reasonably allocable to the Manufacture of a given Licensed Product (including the cost of API) for Commercialization of such Licensed Product in the Profit-Sharing Territory.  “Commercial Manufacture Costs” shall not include any costs of activities conducted for supply of Licensed Products for which the Parties are not sharing Pre-Tax Profit or Loss.

“v” means costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of GSK that are directly attributable and reasonably allocable to the [***] for sale in the Profit-Sharing Territory, including: (a) [***]; (b) [***]; (c) reasonable and customary [***]; and (d) to the extent not paid for by customers, [***], but for clarity, excluding in each case ((a) through (d)) any such amounts to the extent included as a [***].  [***] shall not exceed [***] of [***].

“[***]” means the annual fee paid to the [***] as defined in the [***] and similar [***] in the Profit-Sharing Territory to the extent directly attributable and reasonably allocable to the applicable Licensed Product and not included as a [***].  If any similar [***] is legislated or rule created in the Profit-Sharing Territory directly attributable and reasonably allocable to the applicable Licensed Product, this shall also be included as an Allowable Expense to the extent directly attributable and reasonably allocable to the applicable Licensed Product and not included as a deduction in calculating Net Sales.

 “[***]” means, to the extent not included in Development Costs and not covered in the applicable Development Plan, costs incurred in the [***] of the applicable Licensed Product for sale in the Profit-Sharing Territory, and related [***], including, in each case to the extent directly attributable and reasonably allocable to such Licensed Product:

(1) [***]; 

(2) [***];

(3) [***] expenses directly attributable and reasonably allocable to such Licensed Product such as [***], provided that if professional staff support more than one product then their expenses shall be allocated based on a percent of effort or other reasonable basis used in the normal course of business; 

[***] Certain information in this document has been excluded pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 601(b)(10). Such excluded information is not material and would likely cause competitive harm to the registrant if publicly disclosed.

 

 

(4) [***], which means [***] supports more than one product, then the expenses shall be allocated based on a percent of effort or other reasonable basis used in the normal course of business;

Form of Press Release

IDEAYA and GSK Announce a Broad Partnership in Synthetic Lethality, an Emerging Field in Precision Medicine Oncology

 

	
‒
	
Partnership covers three IDEAYA Synthetic Lethality programs - MAT2A, Pol Theta and Werner Helicase, and will explore combinations between IDEAYA and GSK programs 

 

	
‒
	
IDEAYA will receive a $100 million upfront cash payment, and $20 million equity purchase of IDEAYA common stock in a direct private placement, and a potential $50 million cash option exercise fee for the MAT2A program.  IDEAYA is also entitled to receive potential preclinical, clinical and sales milestones

 

	
‒
	
IDEAYA will receive a 50% US profit share for the MAT2A and Werner Helicase programs and is responsible for 20% of global development costs for products being developed with GSK

 

 

South San Francisco, CA, and London, United Kingdom, June 16, 2020 – IDEAYA Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: IDYA) and GlaxoSmithKline plc (GSK) announce a strategic partnership in Synthetic Lethality, an emerging field in Oncology.  

 

The strategic partnership includes IDEAYA’s Synthetic Lethality programs MAT2A, Pol Theta, and Werner Helicase programs, which are projected to reach clinical trials within the next three years.  IDEAYA has solved the crystal structures for each of its MAT2A, Pol Theta and Werner Helicase programs, enabling structure-based drug design, and has demonstrated in vivo proof of concept in relevant animal models for its MAT2A and Pol Theta programs.  

 

Synthetic Lethality is one of four core research focus areas for GSK in oncology. In synthetic lethality, cells tolerate the loss of single genes in isolation but not together in combination. When tumor suppressor genes are functionally lost in cancer, this mode of action can be used to exploit tumor-specific vulnerabilities through new medicines for patients with cancer.

 

“GSK is the ideal strategic partner for IDEAYA, as this partnership enables compelling potential combinations and the opportunity to build the industry leading Synthetic Lethality pipeline that targets molecularly defined populations in several major solid tumors, including potentially lung, prostate, breast, colorectal, and ovarian cancer,” said Yujiro S. Hata, Chief Executive Officer and President, IDEAYA Biosciences.

 

IDEAYA will lead the MAT2A program through early clinical development.  IDEAYA is responsible for all costs of the MAT2A program prior to the GSK option exercise.  Thereafter, IDEAYA is responsible for 20% of global development costs.

 

IDEAYA will receive a 50% US profit share and ex-US royalties for the MAT2A and Werner Helicase programs and is responsible for 20% of global development costs for licensed products being developed with GSK.  IDEAYA will receive global royalties for the Pol Theta program, and GSK will cover all research,

development, and commercialization costs. GSK will be responsible for all commercialization activities and costs globally for licensed products. The collaboration agreement is conditional upon customary conditions including regulatory review by the appropriate regulatory agencies under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act.

 

“GSK and IDEAYA have a vision to bring the next generation of innovative precision medicine therapies to patients utilizing the approach of Synthetic Lethality, and a highly complementary pipeline that has the potential to deliver transformative benefit for patients,” said Michael Dillon, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer, IDEAYA Biosciences.

makes no agreement or understanding in this Agreement in Stockholder’s capacity as a director or officer of the Company
or any of its subsidiaries (if Stockholder holds such office), and nothing in this Agreement: (a) will limit, restrict or affect
any actions or omissions taken by Stockholder in Stockholder’s capacity as such a director or officer, including in exercising
rights under the Merger Agreement, and no such actions or omissions shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement; or (b) will be
construed to prohibit, limit, or restrict Stockholder from exercising Stockholder’s fiduciary duties as an officer or director
of Parent.

 

12.
No Ownership Interest.

 

Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in the Company any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership
of or with respect to any Shares. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Shares shall remain vested
in and belong to Stockholder, and the Company shall not have any authority to direct Stockholder in the voting of the Shares,
except as otherwise provided herein.

 

13.
Further Assurances.

 

Stockholder
agrees, from time to time, and without additional consideration, to execute and deliver such additional proxies, documents, and
other instruments and to take all such further action as the Company may reasonably request to consummate and make effective the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

14.
Stop Transfer Instructions.

 

At
all times commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the Expiration Time, in furtherance
of this Agreement, Stockholder hereby authorizes Parent (and the Company to direct Parent) or its counsel to notify Parent’s
transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Shares (and that this Agreement places limits on
the voting and transfer of the Shares), subject to the provisions hereof and provided that any such stop transfer order and notice
will immediately be withdrawn and terminated by Parent following the Expiration Time.

15.
Legending of Shares.

 

If
so requested by the Company, Stockholder agrees that the certificates representing the Shares shall bear a legend stating that
they are subject to this Agreement.

 

16.
Specific Performance.

 

Each
Party hereto acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure in money the damage to the other Party if a Party hereto fails
to comply with any of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, that every such obligation is material and that, in the event
of any such failure, the other Party will not have an adequate remedy at Law or damages. Accordingly, each Party hereto agrees
that injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, in addition to remedies at Law or damages, is the appropriate remedy for any
such failure and will not oppose the seeking of such relief on the basis that the other Party has an adequate remedy at Law. Each
Party hereto agrees that it will not seek, and agrees to waive any requirement for, the securing or posting of a bond in connection
with the other Party’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief.

 

17.
Entire Agreement.

 

This
Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof
and contains the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended
or supplemented, and no provisions hereof may be modified or waived, except by an instrument in writing signed by both of the
Parties hereto. No waiver of any provisions hereof by either Party shall be deemed a waiver of any other provisions hereof by
such Party, nor shall any such waiver be deemed a continuing waiver of any provision hereof by such Party.

 

18.

Miscellaneous.

 

(a)
Governing Law. This Agreement, and all Legal Actions (whether based on contract, tort, or statute) arising out of or relating
to this Agreement or the actions of any of the Parties in the negotiation, administration, performance, or enforcement hereof,
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any
choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the
application of Laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

 

(b)
Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any Legal Action with respect to this Agreement
and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement
and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by the other Party hereto or its successors or assigns shall be brought
and determined exclusively in the Delaware Superior Court, or in the event (but only in the event) that such court does not have
subject matter jurisdiction over such Legal Action, in the United States District Court for the State of Delaware. Each of the
Parties hereto agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such Legal Action in the manner provided
in Section 18 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Laws, will be valid and sufficient service thereof. Each
of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such Legal Action for itself and in respect of its property,
generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action
relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court or tribunal other than the aforesaid
courts. Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim,
or otherwise, in any Legal Action with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition
and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder: (i) any claim that
it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process
in accordance with this Section 19(b); (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such
court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment
in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment, or otherwise); and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
Law, any claim that (x) the suit, action, or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (y) the venue of such
suit, action, or proceeding is improper, or (z) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such
courts.

(c)
Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY
TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT: (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL
ACTION; (B) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER; (C) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY; AND (D) SUCH
PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION
19(C).

 

(d)
Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost
or expense, whether or not the Merger is consummated; provided, however, that if any action or other proceeding relating to the
enforcement of any provision of this Agreement is brought by any party hereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements (in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be
entitled).

 

(e)
No Obligation to Exercise Options. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement
shall obligate Stockholder to exercise any option, warrant or other right to acquire shares of Parent Common Stock.

 

(f)
Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such
invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render
unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid,
illegal, or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original
intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby
be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

 

(g)
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original
but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

(h)
Section Headings. All section headings herein are for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Agreement,
and no construction or reference shall be derived therefrom.

 

(i)
Assignment. Neither Party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the
prior written consent of the other Party hereto, except that the Company may assign, in its sole discretion, all or any of its
rights, interests and obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be
binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
Any assignment contrary to the provisions of this Section 19(i) shall be null and void.

 

(j)
Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution
of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that
ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

 

(k)
No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person
other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy
of any nature under or by reason of this Agreement.
