Anderson Cancer Center, with a place of business located at 1515 Holcombe Blvd., Houston, TX 77030, USA (“MD Anderson”), a member institution of The University of Texas System (“System”) and Turning Point Therapeutics, Inc., with a place of business located at 10628 Science Center Drive, Suite 200, San Diego, CA 92121 (“Company”) (MD Anderson and Company each a “Party” and collectively the “Parties”).

WITNESSETH

Whereas, Company is a pharmaceutical development company involved in the field of research, development and marketing of pharmaceutical products, including the sponsorship of clinical trials.

Whereas, MD Anderson is a comprehensive cancer research, treatment, and prevention center, with scientists and technicians in substantive fields relating to cancer research.

Whereas, the Parties hereby wish to establish a collaboration, as further described herein (“Collaboration”) under which the Company desires to provide funding and support for one or more research studies to be conducted by MD Anderson pursuant to this Agreement (each such study a “Study,” and one or more of such Studies the “Studies”).

Now therefore, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and conditions hereinafter recited, the Parties do hereby agree as follows:

1. Subject and Scope of Agreement

1.1 The Parties intend that the scope of the Collaboration will consist of preclinical and clinical Studies designed to expand the science, clinical treatment and potential of precision oncology, the details of which are to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties and the JSC (as defined in Section 1.5). In consultation with Company, MD Anderson agrees to design the Studies and use reasonable efforts to conduct the work detailed under each Study Order. Studies may be changed as agreed upon by the JSC. Responsibility for IND filing and monitoring will be agreed upon by the JSC and may vary by Study.

1.2 The Agreement is a Collaboration agreement which shall govern the performance of Studies by MD Anderson and one or more Principal Investigator(s) on basis of Study specific documents (“Study Orders”) as agreed upon by the Parties. This Agreement shall apply to all Studies performed by MD Anderson and the MD Anderson principal investigator(s) responsible for the performance of such Studies (“Principal Investigator(s)”) upon execution of Study Orders during the term of this Agreement. Each Study Order shall be substantially in the form attached as Exhibit I to this Agreement and shall detail the specifics of the Study to be performed under such Study Order including, without limitation, (i) the detailed Protocol or workscope, (ii) the Principal Investigator, (iii) a study budget, (iv) a description of the clinical, pre-clinical or research stage molecule which is the subject of the Study, which will be provided by Company to MD Anderson pursuant to such Study Order (“Study Drug”) or any Proprietary Materials to be provided by the Parties, (v) if applicable, description of the Data, reports and any other work product or deliverables (vi) timelines for completion of the Study and (vii) any project-specific resources or support provided by

Company. In the event of any conflict of terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Study Order, the terms of this Agreement shall govern, unless the Study Order specifically and expressly supersedes this Agreement with respect to a specific term, and then only with respect to the particular Study Order and specific term. Once a Study Order for a Study is signed by both parties, it will automatically be deemed to be attached hereto and incorporated herein. If there is any discrepancy or conflict between the terms contained in a Protocol/workscope and this Agreement and/or the relevant Study Order, the terms of the Protocol/workscope shall govern and control with respect to clinical and/or scientific matters and the terms of the Agreement and/or the relevant Study Order shall govern and control with respect to all other matters, including but not limited to, legal and financial matters.

1.3 Company agrees to provide funding in an amount of Ten Million US dollars ($10,000,000) for the performance of the Studies under the applicable Study Order(s) during the term of this Agreement (collectively, “Collaboration Funding”). Company’s Study Drugs, repotrectinib, TPX-0022, and TPX-0131, shall be the subject of initial Studies to be conducted pursuant to initial Study Orders executed by the Parties pursuant to this Agreement. MD Anderson agrees that all costs for the conduct of all Studies under this Collaboration, with the sole exception of any costs to supply Company’s Study Drug or Proprietary Materials, are included in the Collaboration Funding. MD Anderson shall use the Collaboration Funding solely to conduct the applicable Study and MD Anderson shall be responsible for managing cash flow between payments. It is understood and agreed that the Collaboration Funding shall cover all administrative, IRB review, patient recruitment, and all other fees, costs and expenses of MD Anderson and any of its Study Team Members for the conduct of the Studies or the provision of equipment or services to facilitate the Studies, and that no other form of compensation shall be paid to MD Anderson in connection with the Studies except as otherwise may be mutually agreed upon by the Parties in writing. If the Parties extend the term by mutual agreement as set forth herein, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith the amount of any future Study funding commitments, as applicable to such extended term.

1.4 Ten Million US dollars, which represents full payment for all Studies performed by MD Anderson during the term of this Agreement and pursuant to this Agreement, shall be due and payable to MD Anderson within [***] days of Company’s receipt of twice-yearly invoices to [***] as follows. MD Anderson shall issue its first invoice for an upfront payment of One Million US dollars ($1,000,000) on the Effective Date. MD Anderson shall issue the remaining nine (9) invoices, each in the amount of One Million US dollars ($1,000,000), on the nine (9) succeeding half-year and full-year anniversaries of the Effective Date, each to be issued upon delivery by MD Anderson of a twice-yearly Collaboration or Study-progress report.

MD Anderson represents, and Company acknowledges, that the compensation being paid to MD Anderson under this Agreement constitutes the fair market value of the services to be provided hereunder. MD Anderson represents that the Collaboration Funding is based on the fair market value of the activities to be performed for the Studies, and it provides an accurate breakdown of all Study costs, including all Study start-up costs and overhead, if any. Company shall not be obligated to make any payments in connection with the Studies except as explicitly set forth in this Agreement, including any Study Order referencing this Agreement.

Neither MD Anderson nor Principal Investigator shall seek or accept reimbursement from any third-party payor for any Study items or procedures supplied by or paid for by Company under this Agreement.

[***] = Certain Confidential Information Omitted

272558283 v1

No amounts paid under this Agreement are intended to be for, nor shall they be construed as, an offer or payment made in exchange for any explicit or implicit agreement to purchase, prescribe, recommend, or provide a favorable formulary status, for any Company product or service. Any such compensation will be consistent with fair market value in arms-length transactions and will not be determined in a manner that takes into account the volume or value of any referrals or business otherwise generated between the Parties for which payment may be made in whole or in part under Medicare, Medicaid or other Federal health care programs.

1.5 The Parties will establish a Joint Steering Committee (“JSC”) of equal representation, comprised of [***] representatives (employees, directors or consultants who are each subject to confidentiality and non-use obligations no less stringent than those terms set forth herein) from each Party, with the representatives of each Party collectively having one vote on all matters to be decided upon by the JSC. Each Party can appoint and replace its representatives in the JSC at its own discretion through timely written notice to the other Party.

1.6 The JSC will have meetings (either in person, by teleconference or via electronic means) at least [***]. At least [***] meeting per year will be conducted in person or by videoconference (including the kick-off meeting). The JSC will decide on matters by unanimous vote provided, however, that no action may lawfully be taken at any meeting unless at least [***] representatives of each Party (including for this purpose any proxy representative appointed as provided below) are present at the meeting. If a member of the JSC is unable to attend a meeting, he or she may appoint, in writing, a proxy to participate and vote in his or her stead.

1.7 The main task of the JSC will be to oversee the Collaboration. In order to achieve the objectives of the Collaboration, the JSC will oversee each Study under the Collaboration. The JSC will provide technical, scientific, clinical, and regulatory guidance to the Studies and will be responsible for monitoring progress of these Studies. In addition the JSC will be responsible for discussing and approving a study budget for each Study Order and coordinating resolution of problems arising in the Studies or in the Collaboration as a whole. Additional representatives can be invited by the JSC on a case by case basis should discussion of certain topics require so, provided that such representatives will be subject to an obligation of confidentiality and non-use at least as strict as Section 4 below. In the event a Study is terminated early, then, in relation to any funds allocated to such Study, the Parties shall promptly discuss and agree upon a replacement of that Study with a new study of similar scope that is of mutual scientific interest to the Parties and that is approved by the JSC, and that will be funded by the Collaboration Funding. If there is any Collaboration Funding remaining at the expiration or termination of this Agreement and all Study Orders, it may be allocated to additional studies, research or tests as agreed to by the JSC and if the JSC cannot agree to any such studies, research or tests, it will be returned to Company promptly following budget reconciliation procedures described in Section 7.6.

1.8 In the event of any matter to which the JSC cannot reach resolution, or in the event of any dispute arising as to any matter subject to JSC responsibility, such matter will be escalated to the executive management of MD Anderson and Company for good faith resolution. If such executive management team cannot resolve the dispute within [***] days of first being notified of such dispute, such matter shall be escalated to the chief executive officer/president of MD Anderson and Company for good faith resolution.

2. Responsibilities and Compliance

HOUSTON and SAN DIEGO ― The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and Turning Point Therapeutics, Inc., today announced a strategic research and development alliance to expand the evaluation of two of Turning Point's investigational small molecules focusing on precision medicine targets well known in oncology.

The initial focus of the alliance will be Turning Point’s lead drug candidate, repotrectinib, a next-generation kinase inhibitor targeting the ROS1 and NTRK oncogenic drivers of non-small cell lung cancer and advanced solid tumors that is currently being studied in a registrational Phase 1/2 study (TRIDENT-1). Alliance studies also will include elzovantinib (TPX-0022), a kinase inhibitor targeting MET, CSF1R and SRC, which is currently being studied in a Phase 1 trial of patients with advanced solid tumors harboring genetic alterations in MET (SHIELD-1).

The planned focus of the alliance will include monotherapy and potential combinations with other agents – including chemotherapy, immunotherapies and other targeted agents.

"This agreement embodies our commitment to further advancing our innovative macrocyclic programs and complementing our development efforts through collaborative alliances with those who share our vision for breakthrough science," said Homa Yeganegi, senior vice president and global product development lead at Turning Point Therapeutics. "We look forward to working with MD Anderson to strengthen our scientific and clinical understanding of our multi-targeted compounds in several tumor types with the goal of speeding delivery of new cancer treatments to patients."

272558283 v1

Exhibit III (cont.)

The alliance brings together MD Anderson's clinical trial infrastructure and expertise with Turning Point's differentiated targeted oncology pipeline. Under the terms of the alliance’s agreement, which spans a five-year period, collaborative preclinical and clinical studies will be conducted in several solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancers, gastrointestinal malignancies and endocrine cancers.

“There is a major unmet need to develop effective next-generation targeted therapies for cancer patients with oncogene-driven solid tumors, particularly those with mutations that render them resistant to our current therapies,” said John V. Heymach, M.D., Ph.D., chair of Thoracic/Head & Neck Medical Oncology at MD Anderson. "Our alliance with Turning Point represents an important opportunity to work toward advancing new treatment options for patients using novel inhibitors that target multiple driver mutations with the most characterized resistance patterns in common cancers."

The collaborative studies will be overseen by a joint steering committee. Turning Point will provide funding, study materials and other ongoing support throughout the term of the alliance.

(i)

About Turning Point Therapeutics Inc.

Turning Point Therapeutics is a clinical-stage precision oncology company with a pipeline of investigational drugs designed to address key limitations of existing cancer therapies. The company’s lead drug candidate, repotrectinib, is a next-generation kinase inhibitor targeting the ROS1 and TRK oncogenic drivers of non-small cell lung cancer and advanced solid tumors. Repotrectinib, which is being studied in a registrational Phase 2 study in adults and a Phase 1/2 study in pediatric patients, has shown antitumor activity and durable responses among kinase inhibitor treatment-naïve and pre-treated patients. The company’s pipeline of drug candidates also includes elzovantinib, targeting MET, CSF1R and SRC, which is being studied in a Phase 1 trial of patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring genetic alterations in MET; TPX-0046, targeting RET, which is being studied in a Phase 1/2 trial of patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring genetic alterations in RET; TPX-0131, a next-generation ALK inhibitor, which is being studied in a Phase 1/2 trial of previously treated patients with ALK-positive advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer; and TPX-4589 (LM-302), a novel ADC targeting Claudin18.2 which is being studied in a Phase 1 study in gastrointestinal cancers. The company is driven to develop therapies that mark a turning point for patients in their cancer treatment. For more information, visit www.tptherapeutics.com.

The planned focus of the alliance will include monotherapy and potential combinations with other agents – including chemotherapy, immunotherapies and other targeted agents.

"This agreement embodies our commitment to further advancing our innovative macrocyclic programs and complementing our development efforts through collaborative alliances with those who share our vision for breakthrough science," said Homa Yeganegi, Senior Vice President and Global Product Development Lead at Turning Point Therapeutics. "We look forward to working with MD Anderson to strengthen our scientific and clinical understanding of our multi-targeted compounds in several tumor types with the goal of speeding delivery of new cancer treatments to patients."

“There is a major unmet need to develop effective next-generation targeted therapies for cancer patients with oncogene-driven solid tumors, particularly those with mutations that render them resistant to our current therapies,” said John V. Heymach, M.D., Ph.D., Chair of Thoracic/Head & Neck Medical Oncology at MD Anderson. "Our alliance with Turning Point represents an important opportunity to work toward advancing new treatment options for patients using novel inhibitors that target multiple driver mutations with the most characterized resistance patterns in common cancers."

The collaborative studies will be overseen by a joint steering committee. Turning Point will provide funding, study materials and other ongoing support throughout the term of the alliance.
