For the avoidance of doubt, as between the Parties, Aimmune shall be responsible for any Branded Prescription Drug Fees that may be levied under section 9008 of the Affordable Care Act with respect to any Product sold.

8.3.2 Subject to this Section 8.3.2, Xencor will pay any and all taxes, including withholdings, levied on account of any payments made to it under this Agreement. If any taxes are paid or required to be withheld by Aimmune for the benefit of Xencor on account of any payments payable to Xencor under this Agreement, Aimmune will (i) deduct such taxes from the amount of payments otherwise due to Xencor, (ii) timely pay the taxes to the proper taxing authority, (iii) send proof of payment to Xencor within [***] ([***]) days following such payment and (iv) cooperate with Xencor in any way reasonably required by Xencor to obtain available reductions, credits or refunds of such taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (a) Aimmune assigns its rights or obligations or delegates its rights under this Agreement, (b) as a

24

result of such assignment or delegation, Aimmune (or its assignee) is required by Applicable Law to withhold taxes from or in respect of any amount payable under this Agreement, and (c) such withholding taxes exceed the amount of withholding taxes that would have been applicable but for such assignment or delegation, then any such amount payable shall be increased to take into account such withholding taxes as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings (including withholdings on the additional amounts payable), the payee receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such increased withholding been made. Each Party shall cooperate with the other Party in any way reasonably requested by the other Party to minimize the withholding tax implications of any such assignment or delegation.

8.3.3 Aimmune shall be responsible for all Value Added Taxes (“VAT”), if any, attributable to transactions contemplated by this Agreement without any offset or reimbursement from Xencor. Xencor shall cooperate with Aimmune in any way reasonably requested by Aimmune to obtain available reductions, credits or refunds of any VAT amounts attributable to transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.3.4 [***].

8.4Records; Audits.During the Term and for [***] ([***]) years thereafter, Aimmune shall keep, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to keep and provide to Xencor, complete and accurate records pertaining to the sale or other disposition of Product in sufficient detail to permit Xencor to confirm the accuracy of payments due hereunder. Xencor shall have the right, upon [***] ([***]) days’ prior written notice to Aimmune, to cause an independent, certified international public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Aimmune or reasonably acceptable to its Affiliates or Sublicensees, as applicable, to audit such records during Aimmune’s, or its Affiliate’s or Sublicensees’, as applicable, normal business hours to confirm the number of Product units sold, the gross sales and Net Sales of Product, the royalties payable, the method used to calculate the royalties payable, and the exchange rates used in accordance with Section 8.2. The audit shall be limited to pertinent records kept by Aimmune and its Affiliates and Sublicensees for any year ending not more than [***] ([***]) months prior to the date of the written notice. An audit under this Section 8.4 shall not occur more than [***] in any Calendar Year, except in the case of any subsequent “for cause” audit. The accounting firm shall disclose to Xencor only whether the reports are correct or incorrect and the specific details concerning any discrepancies. No other information shall be provided to Xencor. The accounting firm shall provide Aimmune with a copy of any disclosures or reports made to Xencor and Aimmune shall have an opportunity to discuss such disclosures or reports with Xencor and the accounting firm. Information, disclosures, or reports arising from any such examination shall be Confidential Information of Aimmune subject to the confidentiality and other obligations of ARTICLE 12. Prompt adjustments shall be made by the Parties to reflect the results of such audit. Xencor shall bear the full cost of such audit unless such audit discloses an underpayment of more than [***] percent ([***]%) of the payments due under this Agreement, in which case, [***].

8.5Late Payments.In the event that any payment due under this Agreement is not sent to Xencor when due in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 7.1, 7.2, or 8.1, the payment shall accrue interest from the date due at the [***], plus an additional [***]

25

percentage points ([***] ppts); provided, however, that (a) in the event that more than [***] payment due under this Agreement is not received by Xencor when due, the foregoing rate shall increase to the prime rate plus an additional [***] percentage points ([***] ppts) per year calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent, compounded annually and computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty five (365) day year, and (b) in no event shall such rate exceed the maximum legal annual interest rate. The payment of such interest shall not limit Xencor from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment.

CONFIDENTIALITY

12.1 Confidential Information.

12.1.1 The Parties agree that during the Term, and for a period of [***] ([***]) years thereafter, a Party receiving Confidential Information of the other Party will (X) maintain in confidence such Confidential Information to the same extent such Party maintains its own proprietary information of similar kind and value, and, in any event, no less than a reasonable standard of care, (Y) not disclose such Confidential Information to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, except as otherwise expressly permitted below, and (Z) not use such Confidential Information for any purpose except those permitted by this Agreement.

36

As used herein, “Confidential Information” means allKnow-How and other information and materials received by either Party from the other Party or its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement. The foregoing obligations and the other obligations set forth in this Section 12.1 shall not apply with respect to any portion of such Confidential Information which:

(a) is publicly disclosed by the disclosing Party, either before or after it becomes known to the receiving Party;

(b) was known to the receiving Party or any or its Affiliates, without any obligation to keep it confidential, prior to when it was received from the disclosing Party;

(c) is subsequently disclosed to the receiving Party or any of its Affiliates by a Third Party that is lawfully in possession thereof without obligation to keep it confidential;

(d) has been published by a Third Party or otherwise enters the public domain through no fault of the receiving Party or any of its Affiliates in breach of this Agreement; or

(e) has been independently developed or acquired by the receiving Party or any of its Affiliates without the aid, application or use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

12.1.2 The receiving Party shall have the right to disclose any Confidential Information provided by the other Party hereunder if, in the reasonable opinion of the receiving Party’s legal counsel, such disclosure is necessary to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or the requirements of any law or rule imposed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any securities exchange or other Applicable Law, but only to the extent of such necessity or requirements; and no such disclosure shall cause any such information to cease to be Confidential Information hereunder, except to the extent such disclosure results in a public disclosure of such information. Where reasonably possible, the receiving Party shall notify the disclosing Party of the receiving Party’s intent to make such disclosure of Confidential Information pursuant to the preceding sentence sufficiently prior to making such disclosure so as to allow the disclosing Party adequate time to take whatever action the disclosing Party may deem to be appropriate to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information.

12.1.3 Except as set forth above, each Party agrees that it shall provide or permit access to Confidential Information of the other Party only to (i) the receiving Party’s attorneys, independent accountants and financial advisors for the sole purpose of enabling such attorneys, independent accountants and financial advisors to provide advice to the receiving Party and (ii) the receiving Party’s Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, consultants, advisors, actual or potential acquirers and permitted subcontractors, sublicensees and subdistributors, and to the directors, officers, employees, consultants, advisors and permitted subcontractors, actual or potential acquirers, sublicensees and subdistributors of such Affiliates, who have a need to know such Confidential Information to assist the receiving Party with the

37

activities contemplated or required of it by this Agreement; provided that in each case the Person to whom Confidential Information is being disclosed is subject to obligations of confidentiality andnon-use with respect to such Confidential Information substantially similar to the obligations of confidentiality and nonuse of the receiving Party pursuant to this Section 12.1; and provided further, that each Party shall remain responsible for any failure by its attorneys, independent accountants and financial advisors, Affiliates, and its and its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, consultants, advisors, actual or potential acquirers and permitted subcontractors, sublicensees and subdistributors, to treat such Confidential Information as required under this Section 12.1.

For clarity, either Party may disclose without any limitation such Party’s U.S. federal income tax treatment and the U.S. federal income tax structure of the transactions relating to such Party that are based on or derived from this Agreement, as well as all materials of any kind (including opinions, other tax analyses, or a complete copy of this Agreement and any amendments thereto) relating to such tax treatment or tax structure, except to the extent that nondisclosure of such matters is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.

12.1.4 Each Party acknowledges that a Party in breach of any of its obligations under this Section 12.1 shall cause the non-breaching Party irreparable harm, for which monetary damages will be an inadequate remedy. Therefore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement in the event of any such breach, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy available to it under this Agreement, at law or in equity, to injunctive relief, including an accounting for profits, specific performance of the terms hereof and other equitable relief for such breach, without the posting of bond or other security.

Subject to the foregoing, any press releases or other public statements or disclosures regarding the subject matter of this Agreement shall be subject to the express prior written consent of each of the Parties; provided that a disclosure shall be permitted without the other Party’s consent to the extent that it does not contain information beyond that included in a prior disclosure approved in writing by both Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing any disclosure which is required by Applicable Law or the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any securities exchange, as reasonably advised by the disclosing Party’s counsel, may be made without the prior consent of the other Party, although, prior to any such legally required disclosure by a Party, such Party shall use reasonable efforts where practicable to give the other Party reasonable notice and an opportunity to comment on the proposed disclosure.

12.3Securities Filings. In the event either Party proposes to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or the securities regulators of any state or other jurisdiction under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any other applicable securities law a registration statement or any other disclosure document which describes or refers to this Agreement, such Party shall notify the other Party of such intention and shall provide such other Party with a copy of relevant portions of the proposed filing not less than [***] ([***]) Business Days prior to such filing (or such shorter period of time as may be required in the circumstances, and any revisions to such

38

portions of the proposed filing a reasonable time prior to the filing thereof), and shall use reasonable efforts where practicable to consider such comments to the extent consistent with such Party’s disclosure obligations under applicable securities laws or rules of a securities exchange.

12.4Publications.Except for disclosures permitted under this Agreement, if Xencor, its Affiliates, or its employee(s) or consultant(s) wishes to make a publication or presentation specific to the Product or which otherwise may reasonably containKnow-How, or other intellectual property, of Aimmune, Xencor must receive written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, from Aimmune at least [***] ([***]) days prior to submission for publication or presentation.

12.5Use of Names. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, neither Party shall use the name of the other Party in relation to this transaction in any public announcement, press release or other public document without the written consent of such other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that subject to Section 12.3, either Party may use the name of the other Party in any document filed with any Regulatory Authority or Governmental Authority, including the Securities and Exchange Commission or the rules of any securities exchange.

12.6Unauthorized Disclosure of Confidential Information.Each Party shall have a response plan in place for any disclosure of Confidential Information that is not authorized or otherwise permitted under this Agreement. Such plan shall include considerations of, among other things, notification, remediation and retrieval. In the event that a Party becomes aware of an unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information, then such Party shall notify the other Party promptly in writing.

12.7Prior CDA. As of the Effective Date, the terms of this ARTICLE 12 shall supersede any priornon-disclosure, secrecy or confidentiality agreement between the Parties (or their Affiliates) dealing with the subject of this Agreement, including the Confidentiality Agreement between the Parties dated [***].

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Aimmune Licenses Exclusive Worldwide Rights to Xencor’s XmAb^®7195 for the

Development of Next-Generation Food Allergy Treatments

BRISBANE, Calif. – February 5, 2020 – Aimmune Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: AIMT), a biopharmaceutical company developing treatments for potentially life-threatening food allergies, today announced it has obtained an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize the investigational humanized monoclonal antibody XmAb^®7195 from Xencor, Inc.

XmAb7195, which has been renamed AIMab7195, was originally developed by Xencor for the treatment of allergic asthma. It uses three distinct mechanisms of action to reduce blood serum IgE and suppress IgE-producing cells. Aimmune initially plans to develop AIMab7195 as an adjunctive treatment with selectCharacterizedOralDesensitizedImmunoTherapy (CODIT^™) programs, including PALFORZIA^™, to explore treatment outcomes in patients with food allergies.

“As we look to the future of food allergy treatments, we are excited to explore the potential of oral immunotherapy to achieve greater levels of desensitization – and perhaps even remission – when combined with adjunctive biologics that target immune pathways,” said Jayson Dallas, M.D., President and CEO of Aimmune.“In-licensing AIMab7195 demonstrates our commitment to enriching our pipeline and strengthening Aimmune’s global leadership in the evolving therapeutic landscape of food allergy treatments.”

“Aimmune’s focus, clinical success and regulatory expertise in food allergy demonstrate their capability to advance AIMab7195 with highly complementary CODIT pipeline programs to create new options for people living with food allergy,” said Bassil Dahiyat, Ph.D., President and CEO of Xencor. “AIMab7195 is designed to reduce levels of IgE, a key mediator of allergic response, and there is strong scientific rationale that this reduction would synergize with the activity of desensitization therapies.”

Under the terms of the agreement, Aimmune will make an upfront payment to Xencor of $5 million in cash and $5 million in equity, equivalent to 156,238 newly issued shares of Aimmune common stock at $32.0025/share. Xencor also is eligible to receive up to $385 million based on the achievement of certain clinical development, regulatory and commercialization milestones — beginning with the initiation of a Phase 2 clinical trial — and is eligible to receive a high single-digit tomid-teen percentage of royalties upon commercialization of AIMab7195. Aimmune will be solely responsible for costs related to the development of AIMab7195 and plans to provide a development plan in the coming months.

About AIMab7195 (formerly XmAb^®7195)

AIMab7195 is an anti-IgE monoclonal antibody with enhanced binding to the Fc gamma receptor IIb (FcyRIIb). IgE recognizes and interacts with allergens and, as a result, can activate immune cells, such as mast cells and basophils, that drive an allergic response

in patients. AIMab7195 is designed to clear IgE rapidly from circulation, to prevent the production of IgE by preventing the activation of IgE-positive B cells, and to block IgE from interacting with its receptor on immune cells. AIMab7195 has been evaluated in two Phase 1 studies that enrolled more than 100 healthy volunteers and patients with allergy and atopic disease.
