4.1 Initial Payment. In partial consideration of the license granted to LICENSEE from LICENSOR in Article 2 of this Agreement, LICENSEE has paid, which payment is acknowledged by LICENSOR, a “License Fee” of $150,000.

4.2 Royalties.

a) In partial consideration of the license granted by LICENSOR to LICENSEE in Article 2 of this Agreement, LICENSEE agrees to pay to LICENSOR an earned royalty equal to 0.25% (one quarter of one percent) of the NET SALES of LICENSED PRODUCT, LICENSED PROCESS or LICENSED SERVICE made, used, sold, imported, exported or performed by LICENSEE in the TERRITORY.

b) No multiple royalties shall be payable because any LICENSED PRODUCT, LICENSED PROCESS or LICENSED SERVICE, its manufacture, use, lease, sale or performance are or shall be covered by more than one patent or patent application within the PATENT RIGHTS.

c) The obligation of LICENSEE to pay royalties or Sublicense Income (as defined in Section 4.5 herein) hereunder shall terminate for each country in the TERRITORY concurrently with the expiration or termination of the last applicable VALID CLAIM within the PATENT RIGHTS in such country in which the LICENSED PRODUCT, LICENSED PROCESS or LICENSED SERVICE is, (as applicable), used, practiced, performed, sold, offered for sale, imported, exported or manufactured.

4.3 UMass License Fees. LICENSEE acknowledges receipt of copies the UMASS LICENSES. For purposes of this section 4.3, the terms “Minimum Royalty”, “Sublicense Income”, “Royalties” and “Milestone Payments” shall be as defined in the UMASS LICENSES. LICENSOR shall make Minimum Royalty payments to UMASS in a timely fashion, and LICENSEE agrees to reimburse LICENSOR within 30 days of receiving notification that Minimum Royalty payments were made by LICENSOR. Failure to reimburse LICENSOR shall be considered a material breach. In the event that LICENSOR fails to make timely Minimum Royalty payments to UMASS, than LICENSEE shall have the right, on behalf of LICENSOR, to make Minimum Royalty payments due under each of the UMASS LICENSES directly to UMASS. LICENSEE shall be responsible for paying any additional Royalties and/or Milestone Payments, if due at all, directly to UMASS.

4.4 Stacking Royalties. With the exception of minimum royalties due to LICENSOR, if LICENSEE, its Affiliates or sublicensees are required to pay royalties relating to any additional intellectual property from LICENSOR in order to exercise its rights hereunder to make, have made, use or sell any LICENSED PRODUCT, then LICENSEE shall have the right to credit a pro-rated portion of such royalty payments against the royalties owing to LICENSOR under Section 4.2 of this Agreement with respect to sales of such LICENSED PRODUCT such that in no event shall the total of royalty payments that are due to LICENSOR in such royalty period exceed the royalty payments payable under Subsection 4.2(a) above. Prorations shall be made in the same manner as specified for combination products under Section 4.9 below.

4.5 Sublicense Income. LICENSEE shall pay to LICENSOR a total of Five percent (5%) of all Sublicense Income. “Sublicense Income” means consideration that LICENSEE receives for the sublicense of rights that are granted LICENSEE under Article 2, including without limitation license fees, milestone payments, equity payments, upfront fees, success fees, and license maintenance fees.

4.9 Combination Product. In the event a LICENSED PRODUCT is sold in a combination product with other devices or biologically active components, NET SALES, for purposes of royalty payments on the combination product, shall be calculated by multiplying the NET SALES of that combination by the fraction A/B, where A is the gross selling price of the LICENSED PRODUCT sold separately and B is the gross selling price of the combination product. In the event that no such separate sales are made by LICENSEE, its Affiliates or permitted sublicensees, NET SALES for royalty determination shall be calculated by multiplying NET SALES of the combination by the fractionC/(C+D),where C is the fully allocated cost of the LICENSED PRODUCT and D is the fully allocated cost of such other biologically active components.

4.10 Payments in U.S. Currency. All payments due under this Agreement shall be paid in cash to LICENSOR and all payments shall be made in United States currency.

4.11 Taxes. Subject to the limits of Section 1.9 hereof, all payments due hereunder shall be paid in full without deduction of taxes or other fees which may be imposed by any government and which shall be paid by LICENSEE; provided, however, that any withholding tax required to be withheld by LICENSEE on royalty payments under the laws of any country in the TERRITORY on behalf of LICENSOR will be timely paid by LICENSEE to the appropriate

governmental authority, and LICENSEE will furnish LICENSOR with proof of payment of such tax. Any such tax actually withheld may be deducted from royalty payments due to LICENSOR under this Agreement. If at any time legal restrictions prevent the prompt remittance of part or all of any payments owed by LICENSEE to LICENSOR hereunder with respect to any country in the TERRITORY, payment shall be made through any lawful means or methods that may be available, and as LICENSEE shall reasonably determine is appropriate.

4.12 Overdue Payments. Any payments to be made by LICENSEE hereunder that are not paid on or before the date such payments are due under this Agreement shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, at two percentage points above the Prime Rate of interest as reported in The Wall Street Journal on the date payment is due, with interest calculated based on the number of days that payment is delinquent.

ARTICLE 5—REPORTS AND RECORDS

5.1 LICENSEE shall keep full, true and accurate books of account containing all particulars that may be necessary for the purpose of showing the amounts payable to LICENSOR hereunder and to enable the reports provided under Section 5.2 to be verified. Said books of account shall be kept at LICENSEE’s principal place of business. Said books and the supporting data shall be open upon reasonable advance notice (but not less than five (5) business days notice and no more frequently than once per calendar year) for three (3) years following the end of the calendar year to which they pertain, to the inspection of LICENSOR or its agents for the purpose of verifying LICENSEE’s royalty and Sublicense Income statement or compliance in other respects with this Agreement.

(the “LICENSEE Indemnitees”) from and against all liabilities of any kind whatsoever, including legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or imposed upon any of the LICENSEE Indemnitees in connection with or as a consequence of any claims (including third party claims), suits, actions, demands or judgments arising out of, directly or indirectly, or in any way relating to: (a) any breach by LICENSOR of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation set forth in this Agreement; or (b) arising from LICENSOR’s ownership, management, control, use or disposition of the LICENSED TECHNOLOGY or ACT ANIMAL CELL LINES unless and to the extent that such liability arises solely from any action of LICENSEE or any of its Affiliates after the Effective Date.

8.3 Demands for Third party Claims. Each indemnified party hereunder (an “Indemnified party”) agrees that promptly upon its discovery of facts giving rise to a claim for indemnity under this Agreement, including the receipt of any demand, assertion, claim, action or proceeding, judicial or otherwise, by any third party (being referred to herein as a “Claim”), with respect to any matter as to which it claims to be entitled to indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, it will give prompt notice thereof in writing to the Indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”), together with a statement of such information respecting any of the foregoing as it shall have. Such notice shall include a formal demand for indemnification under this Agreement. 8.4 Right to Contest and Defend. The Indemnifying Party shall contest and defend, at its sole cost and expense, by all appropriate legal proceedings any Claim with respect to which it is called upon to indemnify the Indemnified Party under the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that notice of the intention to so contest shall be delivered by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party as soon as reasonably possible after (but no later than twenty 20 days from) the date of receipt by the Indemnifying Party of notice by the Indemnified Party of the assertion of the Claim. Any such contest may be conducted in the name and on behalf of the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party as may be appropriate. Such contest shall be conducted by reputable counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, but the Indemnified Party shall have the right but not the obligation to participate in such proceedings and to be represented by counsel of its own choosing at its sole cost and expense. The Indemnifying Party shall have full authority to determine all action to be taken with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not have the authority to subject the Indemnified Party to any obligation whatsoever (whether financial or the imposition of equitable or injunctive relief), other than the performance of purely ministerial tasks or obligations not involving material expense (for which the Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed). If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to contest any such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the Indemnified Party.

8.5 Cooperation. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest or, if appropriate, in making any counterclaim against the PERSON asserting the Claim, or any cross-complaint against any PERSON, and the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for any expenses incurred by it in so cooperating.

8.6 Right to Participate. The Indemnified Party agrees to afford the Indemnifying Party and its counsel the opportunity to be present at, and to participate in, conferences with any PERSON, including governmental authorities, asserting any Claim against the Indemnified Party or conferences with representatives of or counsel for such PERSON.

8.7 Payment of Damages. The Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party in immediately available funds any amounts to which the Indemnified Party may become entitled by reason of the provisions of this Agreement, such payment to be made within five (5) days after any such amounts are finally determined either by mutual agreement of the Parties hereto or pursuant to the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

8.8 Independent Indemnities. The Parties acknowledge and agree that each of the indemnities under Sections 8.1 and 8.2 may be relied upon independently.

8.9 Insurance. LICENSEE and LICENSOR mutually agree to maintain insurance or self-insurance that is reasonably adequate to fulfill any potential obligation to the Indemnified Parties. LICENSEE and LICENSOR shall continue to maintain such insurance or self-insurance during the term of this Agreement and after the expiration or termination of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years. Each Party shall provide to the other Party, upon request, proof of any such insurance policy maintained by such Party.

ARTICLE 9—TERMINATION

9.1 The term of this Agreement (“TERM”) shall commence on the Effective Date and continue until the expiration of the last VALID CLAIM within the PATENT RIGHTS to expire, unless sooner terminated as provided in this Article 9; provided that LICENSEE’s obligation to pay royalties or Sublicense Income on NET SALES in any country will terminate pursuant to Subsection 4.2(c) (subject to LICENSEE’s obligations under Section 9.4 herein).
