selling price of a Licensed Product that does not contain such Other Product in such country and B is the gross selling price of the Other Product in such country when sold separately, in each case, during the relevant period. If the gross selling
price of a Licensed Product in such country when sold separately in finished form (i.e., without the other active ingredients) can be determined but the gross selling price of the Other Product in such country cannot be determined, Net Sales
in such country for purposes of determining royalty payments will be calculated by multiplying the actual Net Sales of the Combination Product in such country by the fraction A / C where A is the gross selling price of a Licensed Product that does
not contain such Other Product in such

will be calculated by multiplying the actual Net Sales of the Combination Product in such country by a fraction fairly and reasonably reflecting the relative value contributed by the relevant Licensed Product (without the Other Product) to the total
value of the Combination Product as determined by the Parties in good faith. 
 If non-monetary
consideration is received by an Astellas Entity for any Licensed Product in the relevant country, Net Sales will be calculated based on the average price charged for such Licensed Product, as applicable, during the preceding royalty period, or, in
the absence of such sales, the fair market value of the Licensed Product, as applicable, as determined by the Parties in good faith.

Party”) exercise of its decision-making authority under this Section 3.11 (Final Decision-Making Authority) will have a material adverse effect on the Manufacturing, Development or Commercialization of Licensed
Products in the First Party’s portion of the Territory, then such First Party can raise the issue at the JSC for discussion. If the JSC is unable to reach agreement on a resolution for the matter, then the Deciding Party shall retain final

under this Agreement, or to forgo any of its rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the imposition on the other Party of an obligation to engage in, pay for, or otherwise be financially responsible for, any obligations or
activities that represent a material increase to those obligations and activities mutually agreed upon in the Clinical Development Plan and associated agreed-upon budget; 

(iv) the imposition of any requirements that the other Party takes or declines to take any action that would result in a
violation of any Law or any agreement with any Third Party or the infringement of intellectual property rights of any Third Party;

 Section 9.06. Royalties. 

(a) Subject to Section 9.07 (Royalty Payments and Reports) and the remainder of this
Section 9.06 (Royalties), Astellas shall pay Frequency the following royalties on aggregate Net Sales of all Licensed Products, at an incremental royalty rate determined by aggregate annual Net Sales of all Licensed

 (b) Running royalties paid by Astellas under this Section 9.06
(Royalties) shall be paid on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and
country-by-country basis in the Astellas Territory until the latest of (i) the expiration of the
last-to-expire Valid Claim in the Frequency Patent Rights that [***] with respect to such Licensed Product in such country or (ii) [***] ([***])
years from the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in the Field in such country (the “Royalty Term”). Following the expiration of the Royalty Term with respect to a particular Licensed Product in the Field in a country
(but not following an earlier termination of this Agreement), the licenses granted by Frequency to Astellas pursuant to Section 2.01 (Grant to Licenses) with respect to such Licensed Product in the Field in such country
shall be perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid and royalty-free, and Net Sales of such Licensed Product shall no longer be included in the aggregate Net Sales calculation in Section 9.06(a) (Royalties). 

(c) Potential Royalty Adjustments. 

(i) Generic Competition. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.06(a) (Royalties), on a country-by-country basis, during any period in such country in which a Generic Product is being sold by a Third Party, the applicable royalty rate set forth in
Section 9.06(a) (Royalties) for sales of such Licensed Product in such country that shall be reduced by [***] percent ([***]%). 

(ii) Third Party IP. Subject to Section 9.08 (Existing Frequency
In-License Agreement; Inventorship Claims), in the event that [***]. Astellas may apply any such deduction permitted under this Section 9.06(c)(ii) (Third Party IP) in the
Calendar Quarter in which such deduction are incurred or accrued and will be entitled to carry forward and apply in future Calendar Quarters any amounts that exceed the total payments due from Astellas to Frequency during the applicable Calendar
Quarter (or any amounts that Astellas has not otherwise offset against any payments due from Astellas to Frequency under this Agreement). A reduction and offset pursuant to this Section shall not limit any other right or remedy available to
Astellas.

 (iii) Valid Claim Expiration. If, with respect to a Licensed Product
in a country in the Astellas Territory, there are no Valid Claims remaining within the Frequency Patent Rights that [***] of such Licensed Product in such country, then the applicable royalty rates for the Licensed Product in such country
shall be reduced by [***] percent ([***]%). 
 (iv) Maximum Total Potential Royalty Adjustment. Except
with respect to any royalty reduction for any [***] with any Person that Astellas reasonably believes, in good faith, has a bona fide claim of inventorship with respect to any Frequency Patent Right existing as of the Effective Date (or any
Frequency Patent Right that claims any invention existing as of the Effective Date that relates to Licensed Products) pursuant to Section 9.06(c)(ii) (Royalties) (which reductions are not limited in any way by this
Section 9.06(c)(iv) (Royalties)), the cumulative reduction of applicable royalties due to Frequency pursuant to Section 9.06(c)(i), Section 9.06(c)(ii) and
Section 9.06(c)(iii) (Royalties) shall not result in a total reduction of the royalties due to Frequency under Section 9.06(a) (Royalties) for any Calendar Quarter of more than [***] percent
([***]%); provided that Astellas will be entitled to carry forward and apply as an offset in future Calendar Quarters any amounts with respect to which Astellas would have been entitled to make a reduction but for such maximum Calendar
Quarter reduction. 
 Section 9.07. Royalty Payments and Reports. 

On a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and country-by-country basis, until the expiration of the Royalty Term with respect to such Licensed Product in such country in the Astellas Territory, Astellas shall provide
quarterly written reports (a “Royalty Report”) to Frequency within [***] ([***]) days after the end of each Calendar Quarter, setting forth (a) the amount of gross sales, (b) the amount of Net Sales
and applicable deductions therefrom (including such amounts expressed in local currency and as converted to Dollars), and (c) a calculation of the amount of the royalty payment due on such Net Sales, in each case ((a) – (c)) for such
Licensed Product in such Calendar Quarter in such country. Concurrently with the provision of such Royalty Report, Astellas shall make the royalty payments due in accordance with the foregoing. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, in making such royalty payments to Frequency, Astellas shall be entitled to offset in full the actual amount of royalties it has paid or will pay to MEEI [***] based upon the same sales of Licensed Product during the same Calendar
Quarter, and shall reflect each such offset in reasonable detail in each corresponding Royalty Report provided to Frequency. 

Section 9.08. Existing Frequency In-License Agreements; Inventorship
Claims. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Frequency shall be solely responsible for any and all amounts due to any Third Party under or in connection with (a) any
In-License Agreements existing as of the Effective Date or (b) any In-License Agreement with

any Person in connection with such Person’s claim of inventorship or ownership (in whole or in part) with respect to any Frequency Patent Right existing as of the Effective Date (or any
Frequency Patent Right that claims any invention existing as of the Effective Date that relates to Licensed Products). Each Party shall promptly (but in no more than [***] ([***]) Business Days following the first date that it becomes
aware) notify the other Party if it becomes aware of a potential or actual claim that one or more Person(s) was omitted as a named inventor with respect to any Frequency Patent Right existing as of the Effective Date (or any Frequency Patent Right
that claims any invention existing as of the Effective Date that relates to Licensed Products) or otherwise retains any ownership or other rights with respect to any Frequency Patent Right existing as of the Effective Date (or that claims any
invention existing as of the Effective Date that relates to Licensed Products) (each such Person, a “Third Party Claimant”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including this ARTICLE IX), if a
Party becomes aware of any potential or actual claim that one or more Third Party Claimants was omitted as a named inventor on a Frequency Patent Right existing as of the Effective Date (or any Frequency Patent Right that claims any invention
existing as of the Effective Date that relates to Licensed Products) or otherwise retains any ownership or other rights with respect to any Frequency Patent Right existing as of the Effective Date (or any Frequency Patent Right that claims any
invention existing as of the Effective Date that relates to Licensed Products), then Astellas may withhold, and shall have no further obligation to pay Frequency any further amounts under this Agreement (including this ARTICLE IX) unless and
until: 
 (a) [***] 

(b) [***] 

(c) [***] or 

(d) [***] 

Upon the occurrence of any of clauses (a) through (d) of this Section 9.08 (Existing Frequency In-License Agreements; Inventorship Claims), Astellas will pay to Frequency any amounts withheld by Astellas under this Section 9.08 (Existing Frequency In-License Agreements; Inventorship Claims) to Frequency within [***] ([***]) days of such occurrence but may deduct from such payments (1) any costs incurred by Astellas or its Affiliates in
conducting the activities described in clause (a), (b) or (c), as applicable, (2) any damages incurred by Astellas, and (3) any amounts that Astellas has the right to offset under Section 9.06(c)(ii) (Royalties).

 Section 9.09. Recordkeeping. 

(a) Astellas. Each Astellas Entity shall keep full, clear and accurate records of Licensed Products that are made, used
or sold under this Agreement and of any costs borne by such Astellas Entity for any Joint Study and any activities conducted pursuant to the Development Plans and the Joint Manufacturing Plan in accordance with the Accounting Standards consistently
applied, for a period of at least [***] ([***]) years after the end of the calendar

year to which the records relate, setting forth the sales of Licensed Products in sufficient detail to enable Frequency to verify the amounts of Astellas’ payment obligations hereunder. Each
Astellas Entity further agrees to permit its books and records to be examined by an independent accounting firm selected by Frequency and reasonably acceptable to Astellas no more than once per calendar year to verify any reports and payments
delivered under this Agreement during the [***] ([***]) most recently ended calendar years, upon reasonable notice (which shall be no less than [***] ([***]) days prior notice) and during regular business hours and
subject to a reasonable confidentiality agreement. The Parties shall reconcile any underpayment or overpayment within [***] ([***]) days after the accounting firm delivers the results of any audit. Such examination is to be made at the
expense of Frequency, except in the event that the results of the audit reveal an underpayment by Astellas of [***] percent ([***]%) or more during the period being audited, in which case reasonable audit fees for such examination
shall be paid by Astellas. 
 (b) Frequency. Each Frequency Entity shall keep full, clear and accurate records of any
costs borne by such Frequency Entities for any Joint Study and for any activities conducted pursuant to the Development Plan and the Joint Manufacturing Plan in accordance with the Accounting Standards consistently applied, for a period of at least
[***] ([***]) years after the end of the calendar year to which the records relate, in sufficient detail to enable Astellas to confirm its payment obligations hereunder. Frequency further agrees to permit its books and records to be
examined by an independent accounting firm selected by Astellas and reasonably acceptable to Frequency no more than [***] per calendar year, to verify any invoices delivered under Section 9.02(c) (Development and CMC
Development Costs; Certain Payments [***]) during the [***] ([***]) most recently ended calendar years, upon reasonable notice (which shall be no less than [***] ([***]) days prior notice) and during
regular business hours and subject to a reasonable confidentiality agreement. The Parties shall reconcile any underpayment or overpayment within [***] ([***]) days after the accounting firm delivers the results of any audit. Such
examination is to be made at the expense of Astellas, except in the event that the results of the audit reveal an overcharging by Frequency of [***] percent ([***]%) or more during the period being audited, in which case reasonable
audit fees for such examination shall be paid by Frequency. 
 Section 9.10. Currency Conversion. Wherever
it is necessary to convert currencies for Net Sales invoiced in a currency other than the Dollar, such conversion shall be made into Dollars at the T.T.M. rate published by the Bank of Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. in Japan, consistent with
Astellas’ regular business practices and in accordance with the Accounting Standards, consistently applied with respect to Astellas’ other product sales. Once the amount of Net Sales paid to Frequency in respect of a particular Calendar
Quarter has been converted into Dollars, such amount of Dollars shall be used for the purpose of calculating the total amount of Net Sales during the calendar year that includes such Calendar Quarter.

 Section 9.11. Methods of Payment; Disputed Amounts. All
payments due to either Party under this Agreement shall be made by such Party (and not any Affiliate of such Party) in Dollars by wire transfer to a bank account of the other Party (and not any Affiliate of the other Party). Any disputes regarding
amounts payable under this Agreement shall first be referred for resolution to the Executive Officers pursuant to Section 3.10 (Executive Officers; Disputes). If such Executive Officers do not resolve such dispute within
[***] ([***]) Business Days of such referral, then either Party may submit such dispute to arbitration pursuant to ARTICLE XVI (Arbitration) by submitting an Arbitration Request pursuant to Section 16.01(a)
(Arbitration Request). 
 Section 9.12. Taxes. Without prejudice to the provisions of
Section 9.11 (Methods of Payment), Frequency shall be liable for all United States taxes imposed upon, or measured by, net income (including interest thereon) derived from its receipt of any payments made by Astellas to
Frequency under this Agreement. If applicable Laws require the deduction or withholding of such taxes, Astellas shall deduct, withhold and timely pay over such taxes as required by applicable Laws, and shall submit to Frequency appropriate proof of
payment of the withheld taxes, as well as the official receipts within a reasonable period of time. The Parties agree to cooperate with one another and use commercially reasonable efforts (including making any necessary filings) to avoid or reduce
income tax or withholding or similar obligations in respect to royalties, milestone payments, and other payments made by Astellas to Frequency under this Agreement. Frequency shall provide Astellas with any tax forms that may be reasonably necessary
in order for Astellas to not withhold tax or withhold tax at a reduced rate under the applicable bilateral tax treaty. Frequency shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide any such tax forms to Astellas in advance of the applicable due
date, and each Party shall provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the reduction or recovery, as permitted by Law, of withholding taxes or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement. 

Section 9.13. Late Payments. Interest shall be payable by each Party on any amounts payable to the other
Party under this Agreement that are not paid by the due date for payment. All interest shall accrue and be calculated on a daily basis (both before and after any judgment) at a rate per month equal to the lesser of (a) [***] above the
then-current “prime rate” in effect published in The Wall Street Journal or (b) the maximum rate permissible under applicable Law for the period from the due date for payment until the date of actual payment. The payment of
such interest shall not limit the receiving Party from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment. 

Section 9.14. Invoices. Frequency acknowledges that Astellas requires a hard copy of invoices for all
payments due under this Agreement, which invoices shall be sent to:

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY 

Section 10.01. Ownership. 

(a) As between the Parties, ownership of the Frequency Know-How and Frequency Patent
Rights shall remain vested at all times in Frequency. 
 (b) As between the Parties, ownership of the Astellas Know-How and Astellas Patent Rights shall remain vested at all times in Astellas. 
 (c)
Ownership of Know-How, including inventions (whether or not patentable), and Patent Rights invented, conceived or developed by or on behalf of either Party’s or both Parties’ (or their
Affiliates’) employees or agents during the Term in the course of such Party or Parties’ (or their Affiliates’) exploitation (including research, Development, Manufacture and Commercialization) of Licensed Products in the Field during
the Term (to the extent such Know-How and Patent Rights relate to the Licensed Product and subject to this Section 10.01(c) (Ownership), the “Collaboration
IP”), shall be determined based on inventorship such that (i) Frequency shall own all Collaboration IP invented, as between the Parties, solely by or on behalf of Frequency, its employees and agents (“Frequency
Collaboration IP”); (ii) Astellas shall own all Collaboration IP invented, as between the Parties, solely by or on behalf of Astellas, its employees and agents (“Astellas Collaboration IP”); and (iii) the
Parties will jointly own Collaboration IP invented jointly, on the one hand, by Frequency (or on behalf of Frequency by its employees and agents) and, on the other hand, by Astellas (or on behalf of Astellas by its employees or agents)
(“Joint Collaboration IP”). Each Party shall promptly disclose to the other Party any such Collaboration IP upon becoming aware thereof, but in any event no later than [***] ([***]) days after the
identification, conception, discovery, authorship, development or reduction to practice thereof. Subject to the exclusive rights granted to Astellas under Section 2.01 (Grants of Licenses) and Section 2.07
(Rights of First Negotiation), each Party shall have the right to freely exploit its interest in the Joint Collaboration IP, including the right to grant licenses to Third Parties under its interest in the Joint Collaboration IP, without the
consent of, and without accounting to, the other Party; provided, however, that for clarity, the foregoing joint ownership and associated rights shall not be construed as granting, conveying or creating any license or other rights to any of the
other Party’s solely-owned intellectual property, unless otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement.

 (e) Each Party shall be solely responsible for payments due under
applicable inventor remuneration Laws in any country to each inventor as to any Patent Right described in the foregoing Section 10.01(a)-(d) (Ownership) to which such Party is assigned an ownership interest by such
inventor. 
 Section 10.02. Prosecution of Patent Rights. 

(a) Subject to the applicable terms of each In-License Agreement (including, with
respect to the MIT License Agreement, terms granting MIT the first right to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain Patent Rights licensed by MIT to Frequency): 

(i) Frequency shall have the first right, but not the obligation, [***], to file, prosecute and maintain all
(1) Frequency Patent Rights (including, for purposes of this Section 10.02(a) (Prosecution of Patent Rights), Patent Rights included in the Frequency Collaboration IP), (2) Patent Rights in the Frequency Territory
included in the Joint Collaboration IP and (3) Patent Rights included in the Joint Collaboration IP in the Astellas Territory to the extent that any such Patent Right claims priority to any Frequency Patent Right existing as of the Effective
Date (each such Patent Right, a “Joint Priority Patent Right”). If Frequency elects not to, or is unable to, file, prosecute or maintain any such Patent Right in any country, Frequency shall provide Astellas with written
notice of its decision or inability not less than [***] ([***]) days before any action is required to avoid abandonment, lapse or any other loss of rights with respect to such Patent Right and, in such cases, shall permit Astellas and
its Affiliates, [***], to take such actions itself. In such case, (A) Frequency shall execute such documents and perform such acts as may be reasonably necessary for Astellas to perform such actions, and (B) such Patent Right shall
be not be treated as a Frequency Patent Right on a country-by-country basis for purposes of calculating royalties under Section 9.06
(Royalties). 
 (ii) Frequency shall consult with Astellas on the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of
each such Patent Right under Section 10.02(a)(i) (Prosecution of Patent Rights), including any Patent Rights licensed by MIT to Frequency. Frequency shall furnish Astellas with copies of each document relevant to such
preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance at least [***] ([***]) days prior to the filing of such document or making any payment due thereunder to allow for review and comment by Astellas, and shall implement (or, in the case of
Patent Rights licensed by MIT to Frequency, shall cause MIT to implement to the full extent permitted under the MIT License Agreement) all comments with respect thereto provided by Astellas within [***] ([***]) days following
Astellas’ receipt of such document; provided that in the event that Frequency reasonably believes that implementing any such comment would result

in a material adverse effect on the scope of patent protection on a Licensed Product being Developed or Commercialized in the Frequency Territory, it may refer such matter to the JSC for
resolution pursuant to Section 3.11 (Final Decision-Making Authority). Frequency shall also furnish Astellas with copies of all final filings and responses made to any patent authority with respect to the Patent Rights
being prosecuted by Frequency in a timely manner following submission thereof. 
 (iii) In preparing, filing, prosecuting and
maintaining any Patent Right in accordance with Section 10.02(a)(i) (Prosecution of Patent Rights), in no event shall Astellas take any position that is contrary to or detrimental to the scope or enforceability of any other
Patent Rights owned or otherwise controlled by Frequency in the Frequency Territory that are counterparts to any such Patent Right being handled by Astellas. 

(b) Subject to the terms of each Astellas In-License Agreement [***]: 

(i) Astellas shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to file, prosecute and maintain [***] all Astellas
Patent Rights, any Patent Rights included in Astellas Collaboration IP and any Patent Rights included in the Joint Collaboration IP in the Astellas Territory (other than any Joint Priority Patent Rights). If Astellas elects not to, or is unable to,
file, prosecute or maintain any Patent Rights included in the Astellas Collaboration IP or the Joint Collaboration IP in any country, then Astellas shall provide Frequency with written notice of its decision or inability not less than [***]
([***]) days before any action is required to avoid abandonment, lapse or any other loss of rights with respect to such Patent Right, and, in such cases, shall permit Frequency [***] to take such actions itself. In such case,
(A) Astellas shall execute such documents and perform such acts as may be reasonably necessary for Frequency to perform such actions, and (B) to the extent such Patent Right is included in the Joint Collaboration IP, such Patent Right
shall be deemed a Frequency Patent Right on a country-by-country basis under Section 9.06 (Royalties). 

(ii) Astellas shall consult with Frequency on the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of Patent Rights described
in Section 10.02(b)(i) to the extent such Patent Rights constitute Joint Collaboration IP. Astellas shall furnish Frequency with copies of each document relevant to such preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance at
least [***] ([***]) days prior to filing such document or making any payment due thereunder to allow for review and comment by Frequency, and shall consider in good faith timely comments from Frequency thereon. Astellas shall also
furnish Frequency with copies of all final filings and responses made to any patent authority with respect to such Patent Rights being prosecuted by Astellas in a timely manner following submission thereof.

 (iii) In preparing, filing, prosecuting and maintaining any Patent Right in
accordance with Section 10.02(b)(ii) (Prosecution of Patent Rights), in no event shall Frequency take any position that is contrary to or detrimental to the scope or enforceability of any Astellas Patent Rights or any
Patent Rights owned or otherwise controlled by Astellas in the Astellas Territory that are counterparts to any Astellas Patent Right. 

Section 10.03. Enforcement and Defense. Subject to the applicable terms of each In-License Agreement, each Astellas In-License Agreement, [***] and the Frequency MEEI License Agreement: 

(a) If either Party becomes aware of any Third Party activity, including any Development activity (whether or not an exemption
from infringement liability for such Development activity is available under applicable Law), that infringes (or that is directed to the Development of a product that would infringe) a Frequency Patent Right or Astellas Patent Right or a Patent
Right included in the Collaboration IP, then the Party becoming aware of such activity shall give prompt written notice to the other Party regarding such alleged infringement or misappropriation (collectively, “Infringement
Activity”). 
 (b) The Party with rights to Commercialize Licensed Product within the portion of the Territory
in which the Infringement Activity is taking place shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to attempt to resolve any Infringement Activity in that portion of the Territory by commercially appropriate steps [***], including the
filing of an infringement or misappropriation suit using counsel of its own choice. If such Party fails to resolve such Infringement Activity in such portion of the Territory, or to initiate a suit with respect thereto by the date that is
[***] ([***]) days before any deadline for taking action to avoid any loss of material enforcement rights or remedies, then, with such Party’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the
other Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to attempt to resolve such Infringement Activity in such portion of the Territory by commercially appropriate steps [***], including the filing of an infringement or misappropriation
suit using counsel of its own choice. 
 (c) Any amounts recovered by a Party as a result of an action pursuant to
Section 10.03(b) (Enforcement and Defense), whether by settlement or judgment, shall be allocated [***]; provided that, any recovery realized by a Party as a result of such enforcement action that is awarded
on the basis of lost sales for a Licensed Product in the Astellas Territory under this Agreement shall be [***].

 (d) If a Third Party asserts that a Frequency Patent Right or Astellas
Patent Right or a Patent Right that is Collaboration IP is invalid or unenforceable as a counterargument during the enforcement action under this Section 10.03 (Enforcement and Defense), then the Party enforcing the right
shall have the first right to defend against such assertion. If a Third Party outside of an enforcement action under this Section 10.03 (Enforcement and Defense) asserts that a Frequency Patent Right or Astellas Patent
Right or a Patent Right that is Collaboration IP is invalid or unenforceable, then the Party owning such Patent Right shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to defend against such assertion (such Party with a sole or first right to
defend being known as the “First Defending Party”), and, [***], the other Party shall provide reasonable assistance in defending against such Third Party assertion. In the case that a Third Party asserts that any
Patent Right that constitutes Joint Collaboration IP is invalid or unenforceable, Frequency shall have the first right to act as the First Defending Party with respect to such assertion in the Frequency Territory and Astellas shall have the first
right to act as the First Defending Party with respect to such assertion in the Astellas Territory. The First Defending Party shall (i) keep the other Party reasonably informed regarding such assertion and such defense (including by providing
such other Party with drafts of each filing within a reasonable period before the deadline for such filing and promptly providing such other Party with copies of all final filings and correspondence), (ii) consult with the other Party on such
defense and (iii) consider in good faith all comments from the other Party regarding such defense. The non-defending Party shall have the right to join as a party to such defense and participate with its
own counsel [***]; provided, however, that the First Defending Party shall retain control of such defense. 

(e) In any event, at the request [***] of the Party bringing an infringement or misappropriation action under
Section 10.03(b) (Enforcement and Defense) or defending an action under Section 10.03(d) (Enforcement and Defense), the other Party shall provide reasonable assistance in any such action (including
entering into a common interest agreement if reasonably deemed necessary by any Party). Further, such Party shall (i) keep the other Party reasonably informed regarding all of such Party’s assertions (including by providing such other
Party with drafts of each filing within a reasonable period of time before the deadline for such filing and promptly providing such other Party with copies of all final filings and correspondence), (ii) consult with the other Party, and
(iii) consider in good faith all comments from the other Party regarding such assertions. The other Party shall be joined as a party to the suit if necessary for the initiating or defending Party to bring or continue such suit. Neither Party
may settle any action or proceeding brought under Section 10.03(b) (Enforcement and Defense) or Section 10.03(d) (Enforcement and Defense), or knowingly take any other action in the course thereof,
in a manner that materially adversely affects the other Party’s interest in any Frequency Patent Rights or Astellas Patent Rights in the other Party’s portion of the Territory without the written consent of such other Party. Each Party
shall always have the right to be represented by counsel of its own selection and [*** in any suit or other action instituted by the other Party pursuant to Section 10.03(b) (Enforcement and Defense) or
Section 10.03(d) (Enforcement and Defense).

 Section 10.04. Defense of Third Party Infringement and
Misappropriation Claims. Subject to the applicable terms of each In-License Agreement: 

(a) If a Third Party asserts that a Patent Right or other intellectual property right Controlled by it in the Territory is
infringed or misappropriated by a Party’s activities under this Agreement or a Party becomes aware of a Patent Right or other intellectual property right that might form the basis for such a claim, the Party first obtaining knowledge of such a
claim or such potential claim shall immediately provide the other Party with written notice thereof and the related facts in reasonable detail. The Parties shall discuss what commercially appropriate steps, if any, to take to avoid infringement or
misappropriation of said Third Party Patent Right or other intellectual property right controlled by such Third Party in the Territory. 

(b) If a Third Party asserts that a Patent Right or other intellectual property right Controlled by it in the Territory is
infringed or misappropriated by a Party’s activities under this Agreement, then such Party shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to defend against such assertion and, [***], the other Party will provide reasonable
assistance in defending against such Third Party assertion. Such Party shall keep the other Party reasonably informed regarding such assertion and such defense. 

Section 10.05. Patent Term Extensions. Subject to the applicable terms of each
In-License Agreement, each Party having Regulatory Approval for a Licensed Product in the Field in its portion of the Territory shall select the appropriate Patent Rights for filing to obtain patent term

selecting Party shall consult with the other Party with respect to such decisions and shall consider the comments and concerns of the other Party in good faith. The Parties will, together in good faith, determine how to handle patent term extensions
for jointly owned Patent Rights. Each Party shall cooperate with the other Party in gaining any patent term extensions, including by signing all necessary papers. If the applicable Patent Right selected by the selecting Party for patent term
extension is not owned by such selecting Party, then the other Party shall file, [***], to obtain patent term extension of such Patent Right. In seeking or obtaining patent term extensions (including supplementary protection certificates and
any other extensions that are now available or become available in the future) with respect to the Frequency Patent Rights or the Astellas Patent Rights (as applicable) in no event shall either Party take any position that is contrary to or
detrimental to the scope or enforceability of any other Patent Rights of the other Party that Cover a Licensed Product.

connection with the fulfillment of such Party’s obligations or exercise of such Party’s rights under this Agreement or in connection with bona fide financing or acquisition activities.
Each Party shall (i) ensure that such Party’s Representatives who receive any of the other Party’s (or any of such Party’s Affiliates’) Confidential Information comply with the obligations set forth in this ARTICLE XIII

Frequency may disclose Astellas’ (or any of Astellas’ Affiliates’) Confidential Information to each Third Party counterparty under any In-License Agreement as reasonably required to fulfill
Frequency’s obligations under such In-License Agreement, and Astellas acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to any such Confidential Information, such Third Party counterparty(ies) shall only be

(or its Affiliates’) disclosure of the other Party’s (or any of such Party’s Affiliates’) Confidential Information shall not be prohibited if such disclosure (e) is in response to a valid order of a court or other
Governmental Authority, including the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (or similar foreign authority) or any other Governmental Authority; (f) is otherwise required by applicable Law or rules of a
nationally or internationally recognized securities exchange or Nasdaq; or (g) is to patent offices in order to seek or obtain Patent Rights or to Regulatory Authorities in order to seek or obtain approval to conduct clinical trials or to gain

desires to make a Public Statement, it shall provide the other Party with such Public Statement at least [***] ([***]) days prior to the date it desires to make such public disclosure. Neither Party shall issue any Public Statements
without the other Party’s prior written approval, which advance approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Each Party shall provide the other Party with a preliminary draft of any Public Statement that it intends to
make with respect to Development of Licensed Products at least [***] ([***]) days in advance of such public disclosure and shall provide a final draft of such Public Statement at least [***] ([***]) days in advance of
such public disclosure; provided that, if such Public Statement includes data owned by the other Party with respect to a Regional Study or Preclinical Research conducted by such Party in its portion of the Territory, then the publishing Party
shall obtain the other Party’s prior written approval to include such data, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Once any public statement or public disclosure has been approved in accordance with this
Section 13.04 (Publicity), then the applicable Party may appropriately communicate information contained in such permitted statement or disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 13.04 (Publicity), nothing in this Section 13.04 (Publicity) shall be deemed to limit either Party’s rights under Section 13.03 (Permitted Disclosures) or
either Party’s ability to issue press releases or make other public statements or public disclosures required by applicable Law or rules of a nationally or internationally recognized securities exchange or Nasdaq. 

Section 13.05. Publications. Except for disclosures permitted pursuant to Section 13.02
(Exceptions), Section 13.03 (Permitted Disclosures) or Section 13.04 (Publicity), neither Party shall have the right to make any publication or presentation which relates to the scientific or
technical results of any activities performed pursuant to this Agreement without the prior written consent or approval of the other Party. If either Party (the “Publishing Party”) wishes to publish or present in a public
forum the scientific or technical results of any activities performed pursuant to this Agreement, the Publishing Party shall provide the other Party the opportunity to review any proposed abstracts, manuscripts or scientific presentations (including
verbal presentations) which relate to its activities performed pursuant to this Agreement by delivering a copy thereof (if applicable) to the other Party at least [***] ([***]) days prior to their intended submission for publication.
The other Party shall have [***] ([***]) days from its receipt of any such copy of the proposed disclosure in which to notify the Publishing Party in writing of approval of the disclosure, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. Each Party shall comply with (a) the other Party’s internal publication policy as well as its own internal publication policy, if any, (b) the guidelines issued by the academic journals or

collectively referred to as the “Publication Guidelines”. In the event that Frequency is the Publishing Party and, if Frequency’s researcher meets the authorship criteria under the Publication Guidelines, such researcher
shall execute an Authorship Agreement with Astellas. 
 Section 13.06. Injunctive Relief. Each Party
acknowledges and agrees that there may be no adequate remedy at law for any breach of its obligations under this ARTICLE XIII (Confidentiality), that any such breach may result in irreparable harm to the other Party and, therefore, that, upon
any such breach or any threat thereof, such other Party may seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever remedies it might have at law without the necessity of showing actual damages. 

ARTICLE XIV

Astellas. Astellas shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Frequency and its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, consultants, agents, contractors and employees (the “Frequency Indemnitees”) from and

Indemnifying Party shall undertake and solely manage and control, [***], the defense of the claim and its settlement. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party. The
Indemnified Party may, [***], be represented in any such action or proceeding by counsel of its choice. The Indemnifying Party shall [***] without the Indemnifying Party’s written consent. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle
any such claim unless such settlement fully and unconditionally releases the Indemnified Party from all liability relating thereto and does not impose any obligations on the Indemnified Party, unless the Indemnified Party otherwise agrees in
writing. No Indemnified Party may settle any claim for which it is being indemnified under this Agreement without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent. 

Section 14.04. Insurance. Astellas shall, [***], obtain and maintain insurance with a reputable
insurance carrier with respect to the Astellas Entities’ Development, Manufacture and Commercialization of Licensed Products under this Agreement in such type and amount and subject to such deductibles and other limitations as biopharmaceutical

ARTICLE XV

 Section 15.01. Term. The term of this Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and,
unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE XV (Term and Termination), will expire upon the expiration of the last-to-expire Royalty

 Section 15.02. Termination at Will by Astellas. Astellas may
terminate this Agreement in its entirety or on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product or
country-by-country basis upon giving sixty (60) days’ written notice to Frequency. Simultaneously with providing Frequency a notice of termination under this
Section 15.02 (Termination at Will by Astellas), Astellas shall provide to Frequency a list of all Regional Studies that are ongoing at such time. Upon notification by Astellas of a termination under this

Regional Studies that Frequency elects not to pursue (each such Regional Study a “Rejected Regional Study”), in which case Astellas shall promptly wind down all Rejected
Regional Studies in compliance with all applicable Laws [***]. For all Regional Studies that are not Rejected Regional Studies, all costs after the effective date of termination under this Section 15.02 (Termination at
Will by Astellas) shall, [***]. 
 Section 15.03. Termination for Patent Right Challenge. In the
event that any Astellas Entity challenges, or assists any individual or entity in challenging, the validity, patentability or enforceability of any Frequency Patent Right (except, in each case, as required by Law) (a “Patent
Challenge”), then, to the extent consistent with applicable Law, Frequency may immediately terminate this Agreement by providing written notice thereof to Astellas. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Frequency’s right to terminate this
Agreement for Patent Right challenge set forth in this Section 15.03 (Termination for Patent Right Challenge) shall not apply (i) with respect to any claim that Frequency first asserts against Astellas or any of its
Affiliates or sublicensees where the Patent Challenge is made by Astellas or its Affiliates or sublicensees in defense of such assertion by Frequency, or (ii) if such Patent Challenge was brought by an Astellas Entity and Astellas has
terminated its agreement with such Astellas Entity or caused such Astellas Entity to withdraw such Patent Challenge within [***] ([***]) days following Frequency’s notice of such Patent Challenge (or if Astellas has provided such
Astellas Entity with written notice of such termination and is enforcing such termination). 
 Section 15.04.
Termination for Breach. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 15.04 (Termination for Breach), including Astellas’ rights set forth in Section 15.07 (Alternative to
Termination), a Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to such Party at law or in equity, to terminate this
Agreement in the event the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) is in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement. The Non-Breaching Party shall first provide written notice
to the Breaching Party, which notice shall identify with particularity the alleged breach (the “Breach Notice”). With respect to material breaches of any payment provision hereunder, the Breaching Party shall have a period of
forty-five (45) days after such Breach Notice is provided to cure such breach and with respect to all other breaches, the Breaching Party shall have a period of ninety (90) days after such Breach Notice is provided to cure such breach
(each such period, the “Notice Period”). If such breach is not cured within the applicable period set forth above, the Non-Breaching Party may, at its election, terminate this Agreement
upon written notice to the Breaching Party; provided, however, that if a breach is not reasonably curable within the Notice Period and if the Breaching Party is making a bona fide effort to cure such breach, such termination shall be delayed
for a time period to be agreed by both Parties in order to permit the Non-Breaching Party a reasonable period of time to cure such breach; provided, further, that if either Party initiates a dispute
resolution procedure under Section 16.01 (Arbitration) to resolve the dispute for which termination is being sought, the Notice Period will be tolled and the termination will become effective only if such breach remains
unchanged for ninety (90) days after the final resolution of the dispute through such dispute resolution procedure. The waiver by either Party of any breach of any term or condition of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver as to any
subsequent or similar breach.

 Section 15.05. Termination for Bankruptcy and Rights in
Bankruptcy. 
 (a) To the extent permitted under applicable Law, if, at any time during the Term, an Event of Bankruptcy
(as defined below) relating to either Party (the “Bankrupt Party”) occurs, the other Party (the “Other Party”) shall have, in addition to all other legal and equitable rights and remedies available to
such Party, the option to terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Bankrupt Party. It is agreed and understood that, if the Other Party does not elect to terminate this Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event
of Bankruptcy, except as may otherwise be agreed with the trustee or receiver appointed to manage the affairs of the Bankrupt Party, the Other Party shall continue to make all payments required of it under this Agreement as if the Event of
Bankruptcy had not occurred, and the Bankrupt Party shall not have the right to terminate any license granted herein. The term “Event of Bankruptcy” means (a) filing in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or
regulation of any state or country, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of the Bankrupt Party or of its assets or (b) being served with an
involuntary petition against the Bankrupt Party, filed in any insolvency proceeding, where such petition is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the filing thereof. 

(b) All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement by Astellas and Frequency are and shall otherwise be
deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the US Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or country, licenses of right to “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101 of the US Bankruptcy
Code. The Parties agree that the Parties, as licensees of such rights under this Agreement, shall retain and may fully exercise all of their rights and elections under the US Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country. The
Parties further agree that, in the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against either Party under the US Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or country, the Party hereto that is not a Party to such
proceeding shall be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual property and all embodiments of such intellectual property, which, if not already in the
non-subject Party’s possession, shall be promptly delivered to it (i) upon any such commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding upon the non-subject Party’s
written request therefor, unless the Party subject to such proceeding elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) if not delivered under clause (i) above, following the rejection of this Agreement by
or on behalf of the Party subject to such proceeding upon written request therefor by the non-subject Party. The Parties acknowledge and agree that payments made under Section 9.03
(Development Milestone Payments) or Section 9.04 (Commercial Milestone Payments) or pursuant to any Supply Agreements shall not (x) constitute royalties within the meaning of Section 365(n) of the US Bankruptcy Code
or any analogous provisions in any other country or country or (y) relate to licenses of intellectual property hereunder.

 Section 15.06. Effect of Termination. 

(a) In the event of any termination (but not expiration) of this Agreement, the following shall apply; provided,
however, that, in the case of a termination of some but not all Licensed Products or countries within the Astellas Territory, the following shall apply only as to the terminated Licensed Product(s) or country(ies): 

(i) All license grants in this Agreement from Frequency to Astellas shall immediately terminate (except for any perpetual,
irrevocable licenses granted pursuant to the last sentence of Section 9.06(b) (Royalties) prior to the effective date of termination); 

(ii) All license grants in this Agreement from Astellas to Frequency shall immediately terminate; 

(iii) To the extent permitted under applicable Law, and subject to Section 15.02 (Termination at Will by
Astellas), Astellas shall, as requested by Frequency on a clinical trial-by-clinical trial basis: (A) promptly wind down in an orderly manner any clinical trial
then being conducted with respect to any Licensed Product in the Territory or (B) transfer in an orderly manner any clinical trial then being conducted with respect to any Licensed Product in the Territory to any Frequency Entity or a Third
Party as specified by Frequency; provided that, Astellas shall be permitted to take all reasonable steps necessary to minimize liability and harm to patients in this process; 

(iv) (A) Astellas shall cease using the Frequency Technology and return all inventory of the Licensed Product to Frequency,
together with all copies of the Frequency Know-How and other Confidential Information of Frequency in the possession or control of Astellas or any of its Representatives, and (B) Frequency shall cease
using the Astellas Technology and return all copies of the Astellas Know-How and other Confidential Information of Astellas in the possession or control of Frequency or any of its Representatives, except that
in each case of clause ((A)-(B)), each Party may retain one copy thereof, to the extent that such Party requires such Confidential Information only for the purpose of performing any obligations under this Agreement that may survive such expiration
or termination or for archival purposes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Astellas shall have the right to retain any and all information recorded in Astellas’ electronic notebook system in accordance with
Astellas’ internal policies and procedures; provided, that, that Astellas agrees to take any and all reasonable security measures to continue to treat such retained information in accordance with the confidentiality obligations set forth

Breach) or termination by Frequency in accordance with Section 15.05 (Termination for Bankruptcy and Rights in Bankruptcy), in addition to the other applicable effects of termination set forth under this Agreement: upon
Frequency’s reasonable request, Astellas will negotiate in good faith with Frequency the terms and conditions pursuant to which Astellas may consider: 

(i) to the extent feasible under applicable Law: (A) assigning and transferring to Frequency the Astellas Regulatory
Documents (including Regulatory Approvals), clinical trial agreements (to the extent assignable), confidentiality and other agreements, and materials and Know-How relating to any Licensed Product, and solely
to the extent in any Astellas Entity’s possession or control, and (B) disclosing to Frequency documents embodying the foregoing that are in any Astellas Entity’s possession or control or that any Astellas Entity is able to obtain
using reasonable efforts; 
 (ii) taking such actions that may be reasonably required to transfer to Frequency or a Third
Party designated by Frequency customers lists, promotional materials and other information it has generated for selling the Licensed Product in the Astellas Territory that are (A) solely related to the Licensed Products and (B) not subject
to any confidentiality obligations to any Third Parties, as well as any remaining inventories of Licensed Product. 
 (iii)
reasonably cooperating with Frequency (or its designated Frequency Entities) to cancel or transfer to Frequency registrations made by Astellas, if any, of any Trademark associated with any Licensed Product; and 

(iv) granting to Frequency a license under certain Astellas Technology to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize certain
Licensed Products in the Territory. 
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary (A) Astellas shall have no
obligation to undertake any of the activities or grant any of the rights described in clauses i – iv above unless and until the Parties enter into a mutual, written agreement regarding the same and (B) neither Party will have any
obligation to enter into any such agreement. In negotiating any such agreement, the Parties shall discuss financial terms of that take into consideration Astellas’ development costs, contributions made in Development, Manufacture and
Commercialization of the Licensed Products, and the market value of the Licensed Products that would be covered by such agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of a termination of some but not all Licensed Products or countries within the
Astellas Territory, the provisions of this Section 15.06(b) apply only as to the terminated Licensed Product(s) or country(ies).

 (c) Notwithstanding any expiration or termination of this Agreement, the
Pharmacovigilance Agreement (with respect to Astellas’ obligations thereunder) shall continue in accordance with its terms. 

Section 15.07. Alternative to Termination 

(a) If Astellas has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 15.04 (Termination for
Breach) on account of Frequency’s uncured material breach, then Astellas may elect by written notice to Frequency within [***] ([***]) days following a final determination thereof to exercise its rights under this
Section 15.07 (Alternative to Termination) in lieu of exercising its right under Section 15.04 (Termination for Breach) for such material breach. Upon Astellas’ election to exercise its rights
under this Section 15.07 (Alternative to Termination), this Agreement will remain in full force and effect except that all future payments due from Astellas to Frequency under Section 9.03 (Development
Milestone Payments), Section 9.04 (Commercial Milestone Payments) and Section 9.06 (Royalties) shall be reduced for the remainder of the Term by a percentage, such percentage not to exceed
[***] percent ([***]%), subject to Section 15.07(c), that shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties in good faith as a appropriate reasonable reflection of the damages incurred and to be incurred by
Astellas as a result of Frequency’s material breach. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 15.07 (Alternative to Termination) shall limit Astellas’ right to pursue any and all other remedies
available for any such uncured material breach. 
 (b) In the event that Frequency, in good faith, disputes whether there is
an uncured material breach and the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute in accordance with ARTICLE III (Governance), Frequency can begin arbitration in accordance with Section 16.01 (Arbitration). The payment
reduction under Section 15.07(a) will not be implemented until the dispute is resolved by mutual written agreement of the Parties or in accordance with ARTICLE III (Governance) or Section 16.01
(Arbitration); provided that, if it is determined that Astellas had the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 15.04 (Termination for Breach) on account of Frequency’s uncured material breach,
then Frequency will promptly reimburse Astellas the aggregate amount of payment reductions that have accrued since Astellas elected to exercise its rights under this Section 15.07 (Alternative to Termination) plus interest
(in accordance with Section 9.13 (Late Payments)). 
 (c) In the event that the Parties are unable
to mutually agree on the percentage, such percentage not to exceed [***] percent ([***]%), by which the payments shall be reduced under Section 15.07(a) within [***] ([***]) days of
Astellas’ notice to Frequency that it elects to exercise its rights under this Section 15.07 (Alternative to Termination), either Party can initiate, by written notice to the other Party, arbitration in accordance with
Section 16.01(d) (Baseball Arbitration Procedure for Certain Disputes). Within [***] ([***])

days after the arbitrators select one of the Party’s positions as their final decision by majority vote of the arbitrators, Frequency will reimburse Astellas the aggregate amount of payment
reductions that have accrued since Astellas elected to exercise its rights under this Section 15.07 (Alternative to Termination) plus interest (in accordance with Section 9.13 (Late Payments)).

preclude either Party from pursuing all rights and remedies it may have hereunder or at law or in equity with respect to any breach of this Agreement, nor prejudice either Party’s right to obtain performance of any obligation.

 Section 18.02. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together
with the exhibits and schedules attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement between Frequency or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Astellas or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, with respect to the subject matter hereof,
supersedes all prior understandings and writings between Frequency or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Astellas or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand relating to such subject matter, including the Confidentiality Agreement, and,
subject to Section 4.01 (Joint Development in the Field in the Territory), shall not be modified, amended or (subject to ARTICLE XV (Term and Termination)) terminated, except by another agreement in writing executed
by the Parties. 
 Section 18.03. Severability. If, under applicable Law, any provision of this Agreement
is invalid or unenforceable, or otherwise directly or indirectly affects the validity of any other material provision of this Agreement (such invalid or unenforceable provision, a “Severed Clause”), it is mutually agreed that
this Agreement shall endure except for the Severed Clause. The Parties shall consult one another and use their reasonable efforts to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute for the Severed Clause in view of the
intent of this Agreement. 
 Section 18.04. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under
this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be mailed by internationally recognized express delivery service, or sent by facsimile or email and confirmed by mailing, as follows (or to such other address as the Party to whom notice is to be given

the other Party. 
 Section 18.06. No Waiver. Any omission or delay by either Party at any time to enforce
any right or remedy reserved to it, or to require performance of any of the terms, covenants or provisions hereof, by the other Party, shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s rights to the enforcement of any of its rights under this
Agreement. Any waiver by a Party of a particular breach or default by the other Party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or default by the other Party. 

Section 18.07. Cumulative Remedies; Recovery of Damages. Except as may be expressly set forth herein, no
remedy referred to in this Agreement is intended to be exclusive, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy referred to in this Agreement or otherwise available under law or in equity. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, including without limitation any reference to any payment as nonrefundable or non-creditable, if Astellas seeks direct damages from Frequency arising from any breach of this
Agreement, then Astellas shall be entitled to seek damages including, without limitation, any and all amounts (a) paid by Astellas to Frequency under this Agreement, including without limitation any payment described as nonrefundable or non-creditable, or (b) that Astellas has expended during the Term to Develop, Manufacture, Commercialize or otherwise exploit Licensed Products, it being understood that whether any damages shall be awarded and
in what amount shall at all times be determined by the arbitrators or court of competent jurisdiction. 
 Section 18.08. No Third
Party Beneficiary Rights. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not be construed to give any Third Party any interest or rights (including any third party beneficiary rights) with respect to or in connection with any agreement or provision
contained herein or contemplated hereby, other than (a) to the extent provided in Section 14.01 (Indemnification by Frequency), the Astellas Indemnitees and (b) to the extent provided in
Section 14.02 (Indemnification by Astellas), the Frequency Indemnitees.

Subcontractors. To the extent that this Agreement imposes any obligation on any Astellas Entity, Astellas shall cause such Astellas Entity to perform such obligation. Subject to Section 9.11 (Methods of Payment), either
Party may use one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations and duties hereunder; provided that such Party shall remain liable hereunder for the prompt payment and performance of all of its obligations hereunder. 

Section 18.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which taken together
shall be regarded as one and the same instrument. Signatures transmitted via PDF shall be treated as original signatures. 

Section 18.11. Interpretation. (a) Whenever any provision of this Agreement uses the word
“including,” “include,” “includes,” or “e.g.,” such word shall be deemed to mean “including without limitation” and “including but not limited to”; (b) “herein,”
“hereby,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and other equivalent words shall refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not solely to the particular portion of this Agreement in which any such word is used; (c) a capitalized

and exhibits, shall be deemed integral parts of this Agreement and all references in this Agreement to this Agreement shall encompass such recitals, schedules and exhibits and the terms and conditions incorporated in such recitals, schedules and
exhibits; provided that, in the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of the body of this Agreement and any terms and conditions set forth in the recitals, schedules or exhibits, the terms of the body of this Agreement shall
control; (f) in the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any terms and conditions that may be set forth on any order, invoice, verbal agreement or otherwise, the terms and conditions of this Agreement
shall govern; (g) this Agreement shall be construed as if both Parties drafted it jointly, and shall not be construed against either Party as principal drafter; (h) unless otherwise provided, all references to Sections, Articles, Exhibits
and Schedules in this Agreement are to Sections, Articles, Exhibits and Schedules of and to this Agreement; (i) any reference to any Law shall mean such Law as in effect as of the relevant time, including all rules and regulations thereunder

and are interchangeable with one another; (k) references to a particular person or entity include such person’s or entity’s successors and assigns to the extent not prohibited by this Agreement; (l) the captions and table of
