whether such rejection was necessary or justified. If the parties are unable to agree as to whether a shipment of Captisol supplied by CyDex or its Third-Party Manufacturer hereunder meets the Specifications, such question shall be submitted to an
independent quality control laboratory mutually agreed upon by the parties. The findings of such independent laboratory shall be binding upon the parties. The cost of the independent quality control laboratory shall be borne by the party whose
results are shown by such laboratory to have been incorrect. 
 (d) Return or Destruction of Rejected Shipments. Company
may not return or destroy any batch of Captisol until it receives written notification from CyDex that CyDex does not dispute that the batch fails to meet the Specifications. CyDex will indicate in its notice either that Company is authorized to
destroy the rejected batch of Captisol or that CyDex requires return of the rejected Captisol. Upon written authorization from CyDex to do so, Company shall promptly destroy the rejected batch of Captisol and provide CyDex with written certification
of such destruction. Upon receipt of CyDex’s request for return, Company shall promptly return the rejected batch of Captisol to CyDex. In each case, CyDex will reimburse Company for the documented, reasonable costs associated with the
destruction or return of the rejected Captisol. 
 (e) Refund or Replacement. Company shall not be required to pay any
invoice with respect to any shipment of Captisol properly rejected pursuant to this Section 3.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall be obligated to pay in full for any rejected shipment of Captisol that is subsequently
determined to meet the Specifications in all material respects, irrespective of whether Company has already paid CyDex for a replacement shipment. CyDex shall, upon acceptance of Company’s basis of rejection or other confirmation that such
shipment failed to meet the Specifications, at Company’s sole discretion and direction either: (i) issue a refund or credit equal to the purchase price paid, taxes paid and shipping costs with respect to such rejected shipment within [***]
of Company’s request; or (ii) replace such rejected shipment at no additional cost (beyond the total cost, including delivery, for the rejected shipment paid or owed by Company to CyDex) to Company, with such replacement to be shipped to
Company in accordance with Company’s instructions and schedule (or, if CyDex in good faith cannot meet Company’s schedule, as soon as reasonably practical). Company acknowledges and agrees that, except for the warranty provisions set forth
in Section 9.2 below and the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 10 below, Company’s rights to a refund or credit for or to receive replacement of properly rejected shipments of Captisol hereunder shall be Company’s
sole and exclusive remedy, and CyDex’s sole obligation, with respect to non-conforming Captisol delivered hereunder which has not been used in the manufacture of the Licensed Product. 

(f) Exceptions. Company’s rights of rejection, return, refund and replacement set forth in this Section 3.6 shall
not apply to any Captisol that is non-conforming due to damage caused by (i) Company, its Affiliates or Sublicensees or their respective employees or agents, including but not limited to, misuse, neglect, improper storage, transportation or use
beyond any dating provided or (ii) events subsequent to delivery of such Captisol to the carrier at the point of origin, including but not limited to any damage caused

thereafter by accident, fire or other hazard; and CyDex shall have no liability or responsibility to Company with respect thereto. 

3.7 Facilities and Inspections. Without limiting CyDex’s responsibility under this Agreement, CyDex shall have the right at
any time to satisfy its supply obligations to Company hereunder either in whole or in part through arrangements with third parties engaged to perform services or supply facilities or goods in connection with the manufacture or testing of Captisol
(each, a “Third-Party Manufacturer”). CyDex shall give Company prior written notice of any such arrangement. The parties hereby agree that [***] is a Third-Party Manufacturer as of the Effective Date of this Agreement. CyDex shall
permit no more than [***] of Company’s authorized representatives, during normal working hours and upon reasonable prior notice to CyDex but in no event less than [***] prior notice, to inspect that portion of all CyDex facilities utilized for
the manufacture, preparation, processing, storage or quality control of Captisol or such facilities of any Third-Party Manufacturer, no more frequently than [***] per calendar year. If such inspection is of the facilities of a Third-Party
Manufacturer, Company shall pay [***]. Company’s authorized representatives shall be accompanied by CyDex personnel at all times, shall be qualified to conduct such manufacturing audits, shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations
relating to facility security, health and safety, and shall execute a written confidentiality agreement with terms at least as restrictive as those set forth in Section 8 hereof. In no event shall any such manufacturing audit exceed
[***] in duration. Company shall ensure that its authorized representatives conduct each manufacturing audit in such a manner as to not interfere with the normal and ordinary operations of CyDex or its Third-Party Manufacturer. Except as expressly
set forth in this Section 3.6, neither Company nor its Affiliates, Sublicensees or their respective employees or representatives shall have access to CyDex’s facilities or the facilities of any Third-Party Manufacturer.

 3.8 Inability to Supply. 
 (a) Notice. CyDex shall notify Company if CyDex is unable to supply the quantity of (i) Commercial Grade Captisol ordered by Company in accordance with the Purchase Volume Limitations set
forth in Section 3.2(c) or (ii) Research Grade Captisol or Clinical Grade Captisol ordered by Company as set forth in Section 3.2(d) above: (1) within [***] after CyDex’s receipt of a purchase order from

to supply hereunder. 
 (b) Allocation. If CyDex is unable to supply to Company the quantity of Captisol that CyDex is
required to supply hereunder, CyDex (i) shall allocate its available Captisol among Company and any other purchasers of Captisol with which CyDex then has an on-going contractual relationship, in proportion to the quantity of Captisol for which
each of them has orders pending at such time and (ii) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to alleviate supply delays. The supply allocation provided in this Section 3.8(b) and the alternative supplier provisions of Sections
3.8(c) and (d) below shall be CyDex’s sole obligation and Company’s sole and exclusive remedy for any supply shortage. 
 (c) Supply Shortfall and Risk Management. If CyDex believes that it will be unable to supply to Company with the quantity of Captisol respectively specified below,

(d) Direct Supply from Third Party Manufacturer. In the event that the supply shortfall is caused by the bankruptcy or other
financial distress experienced by CyDex, the parties agree that Company may purchase its requirements of Captisol for the Licensed Product directly from The Hovione Group or other Third Party Manufacturer until the expiration of the Term for use in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 4.2 Pricing for Captisol. 

(a) Pricing. The purchase prices for Captisol are as specified in Exhibit C attached hereto. CyDex reserves the
right to increase the purchase prices set forth in Exhibit C on [***], and every [***] hereafter during the Term, by written notice to Company, by a percentage equal to the [***]. The minimum order for Commercial Grade Captisol

Company is obligated to purchase pursuant to the applicable Detailed Forecast (the difference between the quantity of Commercial Grade Captisol Company is obligated to purchase in [***] pursuant to the applicable Detailed Forecast and the amount of
Commercial Grade Captisol that Company actually orders in [***], the “Shortfall”), then provided that CyDex has used commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate, Company agrees to reimburse CyDex for the cost of any raw materials
and supplies acquired or used in anticipation of supplying Company with such Shortfall to the extent that such raw materials and supplies cannot be redeployed to other projects and any resulting Commercial Grade Captisol cannot be resold to other
customers. 
 (b) Invoicing; Payment. CyDex shall invoice Company upon shipment of each order of Captisol. All invoices
shall be sent to the address specified in the applicable purchase order, and each invoice shall state the purchase price for Captisol in such shipment, plus any insurance, taxes, shipping costs or other costs incidental to such purchase or shipment
initially paid by CyDex but to be borne by Company hereunder; provided, however, that if such insurance, taxes, shipping costs or other costs incidental to such purchase or shipment initially paid by CyDex but to be borne by Company are not
known at the time CyDex invoices Company for the purchase price for the Captisol ordered by Company, CyDex may invoice such costs at a later date. Payment of such invoices shall be made within [***] after the date of Company’s receipt of an
undisputed invoice at the address specified in the applicable purchase order, except in the event of a good faith rejection of a delivery under Article 3.5 above, in which case payment shall be made within [***] after such order is confirmed
to be in compliance with the Specifications in accordance with Section 3.5(c) above. 
 4.3 Currency. All
amounts due hereunder are stated in, and shall be paid in, U.S. dollars. 
 4.4 Taxes. All amounts due hereunder exclude
all applicable sales, use, and other taxes, and Company will be responsible for payment of all such taxes (other than taxes based on CyDex’s income), arising from the payment of amounts due hereunder.  

4.5 Late Payments. Unpaid balances shall accrue interest, from due date until paid, at a rate equal to the lesser of
(i) [***], or (ii) the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. If any amount properly invoiced and due hereunder and not subject to a reasonable, good-faith dispute by Company remains outstanding for more than [***] days after its due
date, CyDex may, in addition to any other rights or remedies it may have, refuse to ship Captisol hereunder except upon payment by Company in advance.

 7.4 Product Recalls. In the event that a Licensed Product is recalled or withdrawn,
CyDex shall fully cooperate with Company in connection with such recall or withdrawal. If such recall is caused by a breach of any warranty or other obligation of CyDex under this Agreement, CyDex will reimburse Company for [***]. CyDex agrees to
abide by all decisions of Company to recall or withdraw Licensed Product.  
  

	8.	CONFIDENTIALITY. 

 8.1 Definition. Company and CyDex each recognizes that during the Term, it may be necessary for a party (the “Disclosing Party”) to provide Confidential Information (as defined
herein) to the other party (the “Receiving Party”) that is highly valuable, the disclosure of which would be highly prejudicial to such party. The disclosure and use of Confidential Information will be governed by the provisions of
this Section 8. Neither Company nor CyDex shall use the other’s Confidential Information except as expressly permitted in this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means all
scientific, clinical, regulatory, marketing, business, operational, financial or commercial information disclosed by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party, including but not limited to product specifications, data, know-how, formulations,
product concepts, sample materials, business and technical information, financial data, batch records, trade secrets, processes, techniques, algorithms, programs, designs, drawings, and any other information related to a party’s present or
future products, sales, suppliers, customers, employees, investors or business. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, CyDex’s Confidential Information includes all materials provided as part of the Captisol Data Package;
nevertheless, Company’s and/or its Affiliates disclosure and use of the Captisol Data Package in connection with any activity related to regulatory approval of any Licensed Product shall not constitute a breach of any non-disclosure and/or
limited use obligations owed by Company and/or its Affiliates to CyDex or [***]. 
 8.2 Obligation. CyDex and Company
agree that they will disclose the other’s Confidential Information to its own officers, employees, consultants, Affiliates and agents only if and to the extent necessary to carry out their respective responsibilities under this Agreement or in
accordance with the exercise of their rights under this Agreement, and such disclosure shall be limited to the maximum extent possible consistent with such responsibilities and rights. Neither party shall disclose Confidential Information of the
other to any third party without the other’s prior written consent, and any such disclosure to a third party shall be pursuant to the terms of a non-disclosure agreement no less restrictive than this Section 8. Each party shall take
such action to preserve the confidentiality of each other’s Confidential Information as it would customarily take to preserve the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information (but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care).
Each party, upon the other’s request, will return all the Confidential Information disclosed to the other party pursuant to this Agreement, including all copies and extracts of documents, within sixty (60) days of the request, except that
the receiving party may retain (i) one (1) copy for archival purposes and (ii) such electronic copies that exist as part of the party’s computer systems, network storage systems and electronic backup systems. 

8.3 Exceptions. The use and non-disclosure obligations set forth in this Section 8 shall not apply to any Confidential
Information, or portion thereof, that the Receiving Party can demonstrate by appropriate documentation: 

  

					
	 	 	LICENSE AND SUPPLY AGREEMENT	 	PAGE 18

  

	***	Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted
portions. 

 (i) at the time of disclosure is in the public domain; 

(ii) after disclosure, becomes part of the public domain, by publication or otherwise, through no fault of the Receiving Party;

 (iii) at the time of disclosure is already in the Receiving Party’s possession, and such prior possession can be
properly demonstrated by the Receiving Party, with the exception of Confidential Information exchanged between parties prior to the execution of this Agreement which is subject to an ongoing obligation of confidentiality; 

(iv) is made available to the Receiving Party by an independent third party, provided, however, that to the Receiving
Party’s knowledge, such information was not obtained by said third party, directly or indirectly, from the Disclosing Party hereunder; or 
 (v) is developed by or on behalf of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates without the aid, application or use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. 

In addition, the Receiving Party may disclose information that is required to be disclosed by law, by a valid order of a court or by
order or regulation of a governmental agency including but not limited to, regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), or in the course of litigation, provided that in all cases the
Receiving Party shall give the other party prompt notice of the pending disclosure and shall assist the Disclosing Party (at Disclosing Party’s request and expense) in obtaining, a protective order preventing or limiting the disclosure and/or
requiring that the Confidential Information so disclosed be used only for the purposes for which the law or regulation required, or for which the order was issued. 
 8.4 Injunction. Each party agrees that should it breach or threaten to breach any provisions of this Section 8, the Disclosing Party may suffer irreparable damages and its remedy at law
may be inadequate. Upon any breach or threatened breach by the Receiving Party of this Section 8, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief in addition to any other remedy which it may have.

	12.	MANAGEMENT OF CAPTISOL PATENTS. 

12.1 Prosecution and Maintenance. CyDex shall maintain, at its sole cost and expense and using reasonable discretion, the Captisol
Patents set forth on Exhibit A. CyDex shall have the sole right to control the prosecution and maintenance of patent applications and the selection of countries where patent applications are filed related to the Captisol Patents.

 12.2 Infringement by Third Parties. If Company becomes aware that a third party may be infringing a Licensed Patent,
it will promptly notify CyDex. CyDex shall take whatever, if any, action it deems appropriate, in its sole discretion, against the alleged infringer. If CyDex elects to take action, Company shall, at CyDex’s request and expense, cooperate and
shall cause its employees to cooperate with CyDex in taking any such action, including but not limited to, cooperating with the prosecution of any infringement suit by CyDex. Company shall not take any such action against the alleged infringer
without the written consent of CyDex. 
  

	13.	TERM AND TERMINATION. 

 13.1 Term. The term of the Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence upon the Effective Date and shall continue in effect thereafter until December 31, 2015, unless extended or
earlier terminated by (i) one of the parties as expressly provided herein, or (ii) written agreement of the parties. The Term may be extended one time, at Company’s sole discretion, for an additional period of five (5) years,
expiring on December 31, 2020, by Company providing written notice to CyDex on or before December 31, 2014. 
 13.2

second written notice (a “Notice of Termination”) to Company. If Notice of Termination is sent to Company, this Agreement shall automatically terminate on the date such notice is received by Company. In addition, CyDex may terminate
this Agreement immediately upon written notice to Company in the event Company makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or has a petition in bankruptcy filed for or against it that is not dismissed within ninety (90) days of such

 13.3 Termination by Company. Company shall have the right at any time to terminate
this Agreement in whole by giving CyDex at least [***] prior written notice. 
 13.4 Effect of Termination. Following the
termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason: 
 (a) All rights granted to Company herein shall immediately
terminate. For clarity, the termination of rights means that, except to as provided otherwise in separate agreements, (i) Company and its Affiliates shall not have the right to operate within the scope of any valid and enforceable claim
contained in an issued patent within the Captisol Patents or the Restricted Patent Rights in any jurisdiction where such valid and enforceable claim exists; (ii) and Company and its Affiliates shall cease use of non-public Captisol-related
toxicology/safety and other relevant non-public scientific safety data provided by CyDex to Company under this Agreement. Company acknowledges that reformulation of and new regulatory approvals for the Product may be required as a result of this
provision. 
 (b) Each party shall promptly return all relevant records and materials in its possession or control
containing the other party’s Confidential Information with respect to which the former party does not retain rights hereunder; provided, however, that each party may retain one archival copy of such records and materials solely to be
able to monitor its obligations that survive under this Agreement. 
 13.5 Survival. Notwithstanding any other provisions
of this Agreement, any liability or obligation of either party to the other for acts or omissions prior to the termination or expiration of this Agreement shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Such termination or expiration
shall not relieve either party from obligations that are expressly indicated to survive termination or expiration of this Agreement, nor shall any termination or expiration of this Agreement relieve Company of its obligation to pay CyDex sums due in
respect of Captisol ordered by Company and shipped prior to termination or expiration of this Agreement, and subsequently received by Company in good condition meeting all specifications applicable at the time of order. Sections 2.2 (Grant of
Licenses and Option from Company to CyDex), 3.6 (Quality Control; Acceptance and Rejection), 4.1 (Payments and Royalties for Licenses), 4.3 (Currency), 4.4 (Taxes), 4.5 (Late Payments), 7.3 (Adverse Event Reporting), 7.4 (Product Recalls), 8

	14.	GENERAL PROVISIONS. 

 14.1 Relationship of Parties. Each of the parties hereto is an independent contractor and nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be deemed to constitute a partnership, agency,
employer-employee or joint venture relationship between the parties. No party shall incur any debts or make any commitments for the other. 
 14.2 Compliance with Law. Company agrees that use of the Captisol Patents and Captisol Data Package by Company and its Affiliates and Sublicensees, and the manufacture, handling, marketing, sale,
distribution and use of Licensed Product, will comply with all Laws. 
 14.3 Arbitration. 

(a) Procedure. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be exclusively and finally resolved by
binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect, in Chicago, Illinois. The arbitration shall be conducted by an arbitrator(s) reasonably knowledgeable about the
pharmaceutical industry and acceptable to CyDex and Company. If CyDex and Company cannot agree on a single arbitrator within [***] after a written demand for arbitration has been made, CyDex shall appoint an arbitrator, Company shall appoint an
arbitrator, the two (2) arbitrators shall appoint a third arbitrator, and the three (3) arbitrators shall hear and decide the issue in controversy. If either party fails to appoint an arbitrator within [***] after service of the demand for
arbitration, then the arbitrator appointed by the other party shall arbitrate any controversy in accordance with this Section 14.3(a). Except as to the selection of arbitrators, the arbitration proceedings shall be conducted promptly and
in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect at the time the arbitration demand is made. The costs and fees of any arbitration shall be paid by [***]. For purposes of this Agreement,
“costs and fees” shall mean all reasonable pre-award expenses of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrator(s), administrative fees, travel expenses, out-of-pocket expenses such as copying and telephone, witness fees, and
attorney’s fees. 
 (b) Confidentiality of Proceedings. All arbitration proceedings hereunder shall be confidential
and the arbitrator(s) shall issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard each party’s Confidential Information. Except as required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration
hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. 
 (c) Interim Equitable Relief. Either party may apply to
the arbitrator(s) seeking injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Either party may, without waiving any right or remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any
interim or provisional relief (including but not limited to interim injunctive relief) that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party, pending the establishment of an arbitration tribunal or pending the arbitration tribunal’s
determination of the merits of the controversy. Neither party shall commence any court proceeding or action against the other to resolve any dispute arising out of relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, except (i) to enforce an
arbitral award rendered pursuant to this Section 14.3, or (ii) under the circumstances set forth in this Section 14.4(c).

 (d) Binding Effect. The provisions of this Section 14.3 shall survive any
expiration or termination of this Agreement, and shall be severable and binding on the parties hereto, notwithstanding that any other provision of this Agreement may be held or declared to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable. 

14.4 Costs and Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each party shall bear all costs and expenses
associated with the performance of such party’s obligations under this Agreement. 
 14.5 Force Majeure. Neither
party shall be liable for failure to perform, or delay in the performance of, its obligations under this Agreement (other than payment obligations) when such failure or delay is caused by an event of force majeure. For purposes of this
Agreement, an event of force majeure means any event or circumstance beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, including but not limited to, war, insurrection, riot, fire, flood or other unusual weather condition, explosion, act of
God, peril of the sea, strike, lockout or other industrial disturbance, sabotage, accident, embargo, breakage of machinery or apparatus, injunction, act of governmental authority, compliance with governmental order on national defense requirements,
or inability to obtain fuel, power, raw materials, labor or transportation facilities. If, due to any event of force majeure, either party shall be unable to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement (other than payment obligations), the
affected party shall immediately notify the other party of such inability and of the period during which such inability is expected to continue. 
 14.6 Notices. Any notice, request, or communication under this Agreement shall be effective only if it is in writing and personally delivered; sent by certified mail, postage pre-paid; facsimile

party unless such waiver is addressed in writing and signed by an authorized representative of that party. The failure of either party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, or to

 EXHIBIT E 
 EXTERNAL SUPPLIER PROCESS CHANGE AGREEMENT FORM 
 Merck Sharp & Dohme
Corp., a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc. (“Merck”), is committed to achieving the highest standards of quality and is dedicated to continuous improvement in compliance and quality through our business processes and practices with
our suppliers. That said, suppliers are responsible for manufacturing their products in conformance with all laws and regulations that pertain to their specific operations. Suppliers are also responsible for assuring that they have qualified
personnel with adequate training to control their own manufacturing processes and ensure consistent quality. Such controls extend to your firm properly evaluating any change in the materials; equipment or processes to ensure your products conform to

 Sometimes, a change in materials, equipment or process by a supplier may have an unintended impact on the product
produced by the supplier and subsequently have an unintended impact on a product being produced by the customer. Merck requires notification of certain changes in materials, equipment or process so as to be able to evaluate whether such change may
have an unintended impact on our use of your product. Our requiring this information does not alter your own responsibility in evaluating any and all changes undertaken by your firm. 
 This agreement will be relevant for any and all products Merck or any of its affiliates, including without limitation Schering Corporation, receives from any of your approved facilities. 

Examples of changes that require prior notification and approval by Merck are described in the attached agreement. In the event of uncertainty as to
whether or not notification is required, please contact your local Merck procurement office.
