ARTICLE 8

LITIGATION

8.1Enforcement. Both Caltech and Licensee agree to promptly notify the other in writing should either Party become aware of possible infringement by a third party of the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights in the Field. Caltech shall also notify The Regents. Upon notice and exchange of evidence of such infringement, Licensee shall have the first right to pursue an enforcement action. Licensee will have all rights required by law to initiate an

13.

enforcement action in Licensee’s name only and at Licensee’s expense. Licensee shall be entitled to solely control any such action initiated by it, but will keep Caltech apprised of the status of such action or suit, and will consult with Caltech should any issues arise in litigation that may be impactful to Caltech and/or other Caltech licensees. If despite the transfer of all substantial rights from Caltech to Licensee hereunder Caltech is required by law to join in such an action, or is subject to discovery requests in such an action, Caltech will do so provided that: (a) Caltech has the option to be represented by outside counsel of its choice; and (b) Licensee shall reimburse Caltech for all reasonableout-of-pocket expenses (including Caltech’s outside counsel) and all internal Caltech expenses in connection with the action. Licensee may take appropriate action to terminate or prevent the infringement provided, however, that Licensee may not bring an action or enter into a settlement agreement with an accused infringer without prior written approval of Caltech, where reasonable approval will not be withheld. In no event may The Regents be joined in any suit without its prior written consent.

8.2Other Defensive Litigation. If a declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity, unenforceability ornon-infringement of any of the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights is brought against Licensee and/or Caltech, Licensee shall have the first right to control the defense of such action at its own expense. Caltech may elect to control the defense of such action if Licensee declines to do so, and if Caltech so elects it shall bear all the costs of the action and shall make settlements only in consultation with Licensee. Licensee shall also have the first right to control the defense of any interference, opposition or similar patent office procedure with respect to the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights, and shall bear all the costs thereof, and shall make settlements for the aforementioned in reasonable consultation with and with the written consent of Caltech.

8.3Cooperation. In the event either Party takes control of a legal action or defense pursuant to Sections 8.1 or 82 (thus becoming the Controlling Party), thenon-controlling Party shall fully cooperate with and supply all assistance reasonably requested by the Controlling Party, including by: (a) using commercially reasonable efforts to have its employees consult and testify when requested; (b) making available relevant records, papers, information, samples, specimens, and the like; and (c) joining any such action in which it is determined to be an indispensable or necessary party. The Controlling Party shall bear the reasonable expenses (including salary and

14.

travel costs) incurred by thenon-controlling Party in providing such assistance and cooperation. The Controlling Party shall keep thenon-controlling Party reasonably informed of the progress of the action or defense. If thenon-controlling Party is not required by law to join the action, that Party shall nevertheless be entitled to participate in such action or defense at its own expense and using counsel of its choice. As a condition of controlling any action or defense involving the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights pursuant to Sections 8.1 or 8.2, Licensee shall use its best efforts to preserve the validity and enforceability thereof.

8.4Settlement. If Licensee controls any action or defense under Section 8.1 or 82, then Licensee shall have the right to settle any claims thereunder, but only upon terms and conditions that Licensee consulted with Caltech and for which Licensee used reasonable efforts to incorporate Caltech’s commercially reasonable suggestions. Should Licensee elect to abandon such an action or defense other than pursuant to a settlement with the alleged infringer that is reasonably acceptable to Caltech, Licensee shall give timely advance notice to Caltech which, if it so desires, may continue the action or defense. If Caltech controls any action or defense under Section 8.1 or 8.2, Caltech may not enter into a settlement agreement with a third party without prior written approval of Licensee for any settlement term(s) that may affect any claims that Licensee has or may have against the third party.

8.5Recoveries. Any amounts paid by third parties to Caltech or Licensee as the result of an enforcement of the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights under an action or defense pursuant to Sections 8.1 or 8.2 (including in satisfaction of a judgment or pursuant to a settlement) shall (a) first be applied to reimbursement of professional fees and expenses (e.g., attorneys’ fees and expert fees) including associated costs incurred by each Party; and (b) second to Caltech and Licensee as follows:

(i) If Licensee is the lead or controlling Party, Licensee shall recover all amounts awarded to Licensee on the basis of Licensee’s claim(s) for damages (including without limitation lost profits or royalties) in the action or defense, and Caltech shall be paid any royalties on the amount recovered by Licensee under 8 .5(b)(i) that would have been due to it under Article 5; and

15.

[***] = CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

(ii) If Caltech is the lead or controlling Party, Caltech shall retain [***] percent ([***]%) of the amounts awarded to Caltech on the basis of Caltech’s claims(s) for damages in the action or defense, and distribute the remainder to Licensee.

To the extent that exemplary damages, punitive damages, or other amounts not falling under 85(b) are awarded, such amounts shall be allocated to Licensee and Caltech as agreed by the Parties according to negotiation in good faith prior to the action or defense, or as ordered by a court or other tribunal. Factors to be considered in such negotiation include, but are not restricted to, the extent to which each Party is participating, including each Party’s financial andnon-financial involvement, risk, and efforts. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts that are recovered without specifying an allocation between the Parties, for example in a settlement payment, shall be allocated as agreed by the Parties according to the above-mentioned negotiation.

8.6Infringement Defense. If Licensee, its Affiliate or Sublicensee, distributor or other customer is sued by a third party charging infringement of patent rights that cover a Licensed Product, Licensee will promptly notify Caltech. Licensee will have sole discretion regarding the defense and/or settlement of same, and will be responsible for the expenses associated with same.

8.7Marking. Licensee agrees to mark the Licensed Products with the numbers of applicable issued patents within the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights, unless such marking is commercially infeasible in accordance with normal commercial practices in the Field, in which case the Parties shall cooperate to devise a commercially reasonable alternative to such marking.

8.8Expiration or Abandonment. In a case where one or more patents or particular claims thereof within the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights expire, or are abandoned, or are declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of last resort or by a lower court from whose decree no appeal is taken, or certiorari is not granted within the period allowed therefor, then the effect thereof hereunder shall be:

(a) that such patents or particular claims shall, as of the date of expiration or abandonment or final decision as the case may be, cease to be included within the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights for the purpose of this Agreement; and

16.

[***] = CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

(b) that such construction so placed upon the Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights by the court shall be followed from and after the date of entry of the decision, and royalties shall thereafter be payable by Licensee only in accordance with such construction.

8.9Adjustment. In the event that any of the contingencies provided for in Section 8.8 occurs, Caltech agrees to renegotiate in good faith with Licensee a reasonable royalty rate under the remaining Exclusively Licensed Patent Rights which are unexpired and in effect and under which Licensee desires to retain a license.

8.10Licensee Challenges.
