The parties acknowledge that product launch and/or distribution of Company products and processes for the benefit of end users in Developing Countries may require worldwide commercialization and /or distribution rights to be maintained by a single party. During the implementation of the Global Health Projects, the Company may demonstrate, on a case-by-case basis, to the satisfaction of the Foundation that Global Access can best be achieved in a particular case without such a license. In such a case, the Foundation and the Company may modify or terminate in whole or in part the foregoing license as mutually agreed as reflected in a signed writing.

The Company agrees to use Reasonable Efforts to enable the Foundation or its sublicensees to exercise their rights hereunder, which efforts shall include, as reasonably required, [***].

Except as otherwise provided in this Letter Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for all costs associated with its technology and intellectual property owned, controlled or licensed-in. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall use Reasonable Efforts to [***].

5. Obligations in the Event of a Sale of the Platform Technology or Company; Preservation of Global Access Commitments.

In the event that all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, the Platform Technology owned or controlled by the Company, or the Funded Developments are transferred to, exclusively licensed to, sold or acquired by a third-party, the Company will require the purchaser, transferee, licensee, or acquirer to assume the Global Access Commitments in a written agreement that is reasonably acceptable to the Foundation. The Company will not grant to a third-party any rights or enter into any arrangements or agreements (including any amendment or modification to the Existing Agreements) that would limit or restrict the Foundation’s rights pursuant to the Global Access Commitments, including the Foundation’s

right to enter into Global Health Projects with the Company, unless such third-party expressly assumes such Global Access Commitments to the reasonable satisfaction of the Foundation. Consistent with the preceding sentence, the Company covenants that if the Company decides to no longer pursue the TomegaVax technology and is required to negotiate in good faith with the individuals who are parties to the Existing Agreements (collectively, the “Consultants”) to find an alternative manner in which the Consultants can continue to develop the TomegaVax technology, the Company will not enter into any exclusive arrangement with the Consultants or grant to the Consultants any rights or enter into any arrangements or agreements that would limit or restrict the Foundation’s rights pursuant to the Global Access Commitments. For clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Letter Agreement, (a) the Foundation’s rights hereunder which exist on the date of the transfer, sale, or acquisition of the Company’s Platform Technology, Funded Developments, or other assets to or by a third-party shall not be terminated by such transfer, sale, or acquisition and (b) if a third-party acquires the Company, any capabilities, technology, and intellectual property rights which the third-party acquirer owned prior to the closing of any such acquisition transaction or develops or acquires after the closing of any such transaction without any use of the Funded Developments will not be considered Platform Technology.

(a) The Withdrawal Right described and defined in this Section 6 will be triggered only as a result of a Charitability Default. For the avoidance of doubt, the Withdrawal Right and the Charitability Default will not be triggered by [***], so long as the Company has not breached its obligations under this Letter Agreement.

(b) A “Charitability Default” will occur if the Company either (i) fails to comply, in any material respect, with the restrictions in Sections 2(c) and 9 of this Letter Agreement on the use of funds from the Foundation Investment or the other related U.S. legal obligations set forth in this Letter Agreement, including without limitation the requirements set forth in Sections 7, 11, and 12 below, or (ii) is in material breach of the Global Access Commitments. Each party agrees to promptly notify the other party in writing if it has knowledge of any Charitability Default and the Company shall thereafter provide to the Foundation a proposed strategy to remedy the Charitability Default.

(c) If the Company fails to cure the Charitability Default within [***] of receipt of the above described notice (provided that solely for purposes of this Section 6 in the event the Company disputes that a Charitability Default has occurred, such [***] period will commence upon a decision that a Charitability Default has occurred pursuant to the dispute resolution process described in Section 17); and the Foundation holds any securities of the Company issued in connection with the Foundation Investment, including securities issued in respect of or upon conversion or exercise of such securities (collectively, the “Foundation Stock”), the Company shall have the obligation, if requested by the Foundation, to redeem or arrange for a third-party to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Foundation Stock (the “Withdrawal Right”), provided that any such redemption or repurchase shall be made only to the extent permitted by applicable law concerning distributions to holders of equity interests. Without limiting the foregoing, if the Company is unable to redeem all of the Foundation Stock, and no third-party purchases the Foundation Stock, then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the Withdrawal Right, consistent with the Code and applicable law, as soon as practicable thereafter, provided that to the extent any redemption of the Foundation Stock pursuant to this Section 6(c) would have [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, the Foundation shall cease to be a stockholder for all purposes effective as of the date such Foundation Stock is redeemed and, thereafter, the sole right of the Foundation with respect to its ownership of Foundation Stock shall be to receive such redemption payment. During the period when the Company is unable to exercise its obligation to redeem or find a purchaser of the Foundation Stock, the Company shall [***] until such time as the Company has fulfilled the Withdrawal Right with respect to all of the Foundation Stock).

(d) For redemption or purchase by a third-party pursuant to Section 6(c), Foundation Stock shall be valued at the greater of (i) the original purchase price attributable to such shares (the “Minimum Purchase Price”) or, at the option of the Foundation, (ii) the then current Fair Market Value.

(e) If the Foundation Stock is sold or redeemed in connection with a Withdrawal Right, the Foundation will have a look back right by which, in the event that (i) the Company consummates a Sale Transaction or (ii) the Company signed a binding letter of intent or binding term sheet or entered into any definitive agreement (each, a “Binding Agreement”) with respect to such Sale Transaction at any time prior to the [***] anniversary of the first date that any of the Foundation Stock was redeemed or sold, then the Foundation will receive compensation equal to the excess of what it would have received in such transaction if it still held the Foundation Stock at the time of such Sale Transaction over what it actually received in the sale or redemption of the Foundation Stock; provided that such Sale Transaction actually closes prior to the first anniversary of the first date that any of the Foundation Stock was redeemed or sold. For clarity, if the Company does not enter into any Binding Agreement until after the [***] anniversary of the initial sale or redemption date of the Foundation Stock, then the Foundation’s look-back right set forth in this Section 6(e) will terminate and be of no further force and effect.

(f) If at the time that the Foundation has requested to exercise its Withdrawal Right, the Foundation Stock consists of a class of securities of the Company that (i) is registered under section 12 (or any successor provision) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (ii) is not subject to restrictions from trading under the Securities Act or state securities laws and (iii) is listed on a U.S. national securities exchange and the Company is current in filing its financial reports and other required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), then the Company will not be required to redeem or find a purchaser for the Foundation Stock if the Foundation elects to and is able to sell the Foundation Stock on a securities exchange for at least the Minimum Purchase Price. If the Foundation elects to sell the Foundation Stock to the public pursuant to this Section 6(f) and the Foundation receives less than the Minimum Purchase Price, then the Company will pay the Foundation as soon as practicable the difference between the amount received by the Foundation as a result of the sale of the Foundation Stock on the securities exchange and the amount of the Minimum Purchase Price.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any exercise of the Withdrawal Right, the Foundation will continue to be entitled to enforce its rights under the Global Access Commitments.

In addition to any reports required to be delivered to the Foundation pursuant to the Investment Documents, the Company shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Foundation the following reports and certifications:

(a) Within [***] after the end of each of the Company’s fiscal years during which the Foundation owns any Foundation Stock or any loans from the Foundation to the Company are outstanding, a certificate from the Company signed by an officer or director of the Company and substantially in the form attached to this Letter Agreement as Appendix 7, certifying that the requirements of the Foundation Investment set forth in this Letter Agreement were met during the immediately preceding fiscal year, describing the use of the proceeds of the Foundation Investment and summarizing the Company’s progress toward achieving the Global Access Commitments;

(b) Within [***] after the end of the Company’s fiscal year during which the Foundation ceases to own any Foundation Stock or all loans from the Foundation to the Company cease to be outstanding, a certificate from the Company signed by an officer or director of the Company and substantially in the form attached to this Letter Agreement as Appendix 8, certifying that the requirements of the Foundation

Investment set forth in this Letter Agreement were met during the term of the Foundation Investment, describing the use of the proceeds of the Foundation Investment and summarizing the Company’s progress toward achieving the Global Access Commitments;

(c) Any other information respecting the operations, activities, and financial condition of the Company as the Foundation may from time to time reasonably request to discharge any expenditure responsibility, within the meaning of Sections 4945(d)(4) and 4945(h) of the Code, of the Foundation with respect to the Foundation Investment, and to otherwise monitor the charitable benefits intended to be served by the Foundation Investment; provided, that the Foundation will reimburse the Company for any reasonable third-party expenses incurred by the Company in order to prepare any information the Company is required to prepare solely as a result of this Section 7(c); and

(d) Full and complete financial reports of the type ordinarily required by commercial investors under similar circumstances to the extent required pursuant to Treasury Regulation 53.4945-5(b)(4); provided that as long as the Company is a reporting company under the Exchange Act, the timely filing of quarterly, annual and current reports pursuant to section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and all other required filings with the SEC shall be deemed to satisfy the financial reporting obligations in this Section 7(d).

(e) The Company will maintain books and records adequate to provide information ordinarily required by commercial investors under similar circumstances, including copies of any reports submitted to the Foundation related to each Global Health Project. The Company will retain such books, records, and reports for [***] and will make such books, records, and reports available at reasonable times to enable the Foundation to [***].

(f) The Company will permit employees or agents of the Foundation who are bound by written confidentiality obligations or policies at least as restrictive as those set forth herein, at any reasonable time and upon reasonable prior notice, during normal business hours, to examine or audit the Company’s books and accounts of record and to make copies and memoranda of the same, in each case, at the Foundation’s expense, to audit the Company’s compliance with the use of the Foundation’s funds; provided that the Foundation will not conduct such an examination more frequently than once per year unless: (i) required due to an audit, request, or inquiry of the Foundation by the Internal Revenue Service; or (ii) the Foundation has a reasonable belief that a Charitability Default has occurred. If the Company maintains any records (including without limitation computer generated records and computer software programs for the generation of such records) in the possession of a third-party, the Company, upon request of the Foundation, will notify such party to permit the Foundation access to such records at reasonable times and to provide the Foundation with copies of any records it may reasonably request in connection with such audit, request or inquiry, all at the Foundation’s expense.

Notwithstanding anything in this Letter Agreement to the contrary, (a) the Foundation will have the right to assign this Letter Agreement (in whole but not in part) or transfer the Foundation Stock, subject to securities laws, to (i) any successor charitable organization of the Foundation from time to time that is a tax exempt organization as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code, or (ii) any tax exempt organization as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code controlled by one or more trustees of the Foundation; and (b) the Company will have the right to assign this Letter Agreement (in whole but not in part) without the consent of the Foundation or any other person: (x) in connection with a Sale Transaction, subject to the terms of Section 5; and (y) to any Affiliate of the Company (provided, that: (A) such Affiliate has adequate financial resources to perform the Company’s obligations under this Letter Agreement; and (B) in the event any such Affiliate ceases to have adequate financial resources to perform the Company’s obligations under

this Letter Agreement, the Company shall be secondarily liable for such obligations). Except as provided in the preceding sentence, neither party shall have the right to assign (whether by merger, sale of stock, sale or license of assets, or otherwise) this Letter Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. The Foundation or the Company, as applicable, will notify the other party of any such proposed assignment, including the identity of the assignee, in a timely manner. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Foundation transfers the Foundation Stock as permitted by this Section 8, the Foundation may assign to any such transferee all of its rights attached to such Foundation Stock, including the Withdrawal Right.

The Company shall not expend any proceeds of the Foundation Investment to carry on propaganda or otherwise to attempt to influence legislation, to influence the outcome of any specific public election or to carry on, directly or indirectly, any voter registration drive, or to participate or intervene in any political campaign on behalf of or in opposition to any candidate for public office within the meaning of Section 4945(d) of the Code. The proceeds of the Foundation Investment shall not (a) be earmarked to be used for any activity, appearance or communication associated with the activities described in the foregoing sentence, or (b) be intended for the direct benefit, and will not directly benefit, any person actually known to the Company (including after being identified to the Company by the Foundation) as having a personal or private interest in the Foundation, including without limitation, descendants of the founders of the Foundation, or persons related to or controlled by, directly or indirectly, such persons; provided, that in no event shall the Company (or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, or representatives) have any duty of inquiry with respect to the foregoing.

For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Letter Agreement, the Company will not use the Foundation Investment to pay a dividend or redeem shares.

The Company represents and warrants to the Foundation that, as of the Amendment Effective Date, neither the Company nor, to the actual knowledge of the Company, any shareholder of the Company is a “disqualified person” with respect to the Foundation (as the term “disqualified person” is defined in Section 4946(a) of the Code). The Foundation represents and warrants to the Company that as of the Amendment Effective Date, the Foundation does not, and one or more disqualified persons with respect to the Foundation do not, directly or indirectly, control the Company.

The Company will not use any portion of the Foundation Investment, directly or indirectly, in support of activities (a) prohibited by U.S. laws related to combatting terrorism; (b) with persons on the List of Specially Designated Nationals (www.treasury.gov/sdn) or entities owned or controlled by such persons; or (c) with countries or territories against which the U.S. maintains comprehensive sanctions (currently, Cuba, Iran, Syria, North Korea, and the Crimean Region of Ukraine), unless such activities are fully authorized by the U.S. government under applicable law and specifically approved by the Foundation in its sole discretion.

The Company will not offer or provide money, gifts, or any other things of value directly or indirectly to anyone in order to improperly influence any act or decision relating to the Foundation or any activities contemplated by this Letter Agreement or the Company’s organizational documents (e.g.,

certificate of incorporation), including by assisting any party to secure an unlawful advantage. Training and information on compliance with these requirements are available at www.learnfoundationlaw.org.

Each of the Foundation and the Company may include information on this investment in its periodic public reports and may make the investment public at any time on its web page and as part of press releases, public reports, speeches, newsletters, and other public documents; provided that public communications about the Foundation Investment made by the Company shall indicate that the Foundation Investment was made by the Foundation in furtherance of the Foundation’s charitable purposes; provided, however, that the Foundation may not publicly disclose this Letter Agreement or the Antibody Development Investment prior to the Amendment Effective Date. Any announcement of the Foundation Investment by any third-party will require the prior written approval of the Foundation and the Company. Other than with respect to the foregoing rights, each party shall also obtain the other party’s prior written approval for any other use of the other party’s name or logo in any respect; provided, that each party may use the other party’s name for any uses that have been previously approved in writing by such party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party’s name and logo will not be used by the other party in any manner to market, sell or otherwise promote the Company, its products, services, and/or business.

(a) Company Indemnity. The Company will indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the Foundation and its co-chairs, trustees, directors, officers, employees, and representatives other than Foundation sublicensees (collectively, the “Foundation Indemnitees”) from and against any and all judgments, settlements, damages, penalties, losses, liabilities, and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) as a result of third-party causes of action, claims, suits, or legal proceedings (each a “Claim”) finally awarded to such third-party by a court of competent jurisdiction against any of the Foundation Indemnitees or agreed to as part of a monetary settlement of the Claim and arising out of or relating to: (a) bodily injury, death, or property damage caused by the activities or omissions of the Company, including any development, product launch, or commercialization activities carried out by the Company (including any failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations or rules in connection therewith), or by any Company product (other than to the extent such Claims were caused by commercialization or other activities conducted by a Foundation sublicensee without the involvement of the Company or any of its Affiliates); or (b) any Claim that the Platform Technology, any Funded Development or any Company product (other than to the extent such Claims were caused by commercialization or other activities conducted by a Foundation sublicensee without the involvement of the Company or any of its Affiliates) infringes upon a patent, proprietary, or other intellectual property right of a third-party. The Foundation will give the Company prompt written notice of any Claim subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 14(a); provided that the Foundation’s failure to promptly notify the Company will not affect the Company’s indemnification obligations except to the extent that the Foundation’s delay prejudices the Company’s ability to defend the Claim. The Company will have sole control over the defense and settlement of each and every Claim subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 14(a), with counsel of its own choosing which is reasonably acceptable to the Foundation; provided that the Company conducts the defense actively and diligently at the sole cost and expense of the Company and provided further that the Company will not enter into any settlement that adversely affects, in any material respect, any Foundation Indemnitee without the applicable Foundation Indemnitee’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Foundation will provide the Company, upon request, with reasonable cooperation in connection with the defense and settlement of the Claim. Subject to the Company’s rights above to control the defense and settlement of Claims, the Foundation and any Foundation Indemnitee may, at its own expense, employ separate counsel to monitor and participate in the defense of any Claim under this Section 14(a). For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall have no liability to the Foundation or

any obligation to indemnify the Foundation pursuant to this Section 14(a) to the extent such claim arises out of the Foundation’s fraud, negligence, or willful misconduct.

(b) The parties will not be liable to each other for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages (including lost revenues, lost savings, or lost profits suffered by such other party) suffered by such other party arising under or in connection with this Letter Agreement, regardless of the form of action, whether in contract or tort, including negligence of any kind whether active or passive, and regardless of whether the party knew of the possibility that such damages could result; provided that to the extent a Foundation Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified hereunder for Claims of third parties and such third-party has been awarded indirect, incidental, consequential, reliance, or special damages (including lost revenues, lost savings, or lost profits), the Company’s indemnification obligations to the Foundation Indemnitee shall extend to and include such third-party’s indirect, incidental, consequential, reliance, or special damages (including lost revenues, lost savings, or lost profits). The parties further agree that under no circumstances will any party be liable to the other party (or to any Foundation Indemnitee) more than once for the same losses arising under or in connection with this Letter Agreement.

(c) The Foundation agrees that it will, as a condition to the grant of any sublicense hereunder, enter into an agreement with the sublicensee(s) that is consistent with industry standards at the time with respect to indemnification of the Company for costs, liabilities, and expenses arising from the conduct of activities by or on behalf of such sublicensee(s) in exercising such sublicense.

The terms and conditions set forth in this Letter Agreement are in addition to the provisions stated in the Investment Documents and the terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement shall prevail over any inconsistent provision in any Investment Document. Unless mutually agreed otherwise by the Parties, to the extent any of the Global Access Commitments (including, for clarity, the definitions of Funded Developments and Platform Technology) in this Letter Agreement are inconsistent with any global access terms in any existing grant agreements between the Parties in connection with the HIV Vaccine Program and TB Vaccine Program, or future grant agreements (including any amendments to existing grant agreements) with respect to the development of the HIV Vaccine Product, TB Vaccine Product, HIV Vaccinal Antibody Product, and/or Malaria Vaccinal Antibody Product up through the completion of the first Phase 2 clinical trial for such respective product, the terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement shall prevail solely to the extent necessary to resolve such inconsistency. The Parties acknowledge that current and future grant agreement-specific global access terms that are not included in this Letter Agreement may be necessary to advance global access objectives prior to the completion of the first Phase 2 clinical trial for each respective product as noted in the preceding sentence, but such terms shall not contravene the Global Access Commitments nor modify the definitions of Funded Developments and Platform Technology in this Letter Agreement unless mutually agreed by the Parties. No change, modification or waiver of any term or condition of this Letter Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing, it is signed by the party to be bound, and it expressly refers to this Letter Agreement.

Each of the signatories below covenants, represents, and warrants that as of the Amendment Effective Date, he, she, or it had all authority necessary to execute this Letter Agreement and that, on execution, this Letter Agreement will be fully binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms, and that no other consents or approvals of any other person or third parties are required or necessary for this Letter Agreement to be so binding. This Letter Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Washington, excluding provisions of conflicts of laws which would result in the application of the law of any other jurisdiction.

(a) Except as specifically otherwise provided herein, any disagreement or dispute between the parties arising out of or related to this Letter Agreement (a “Dispute”), shall be resolved in the manner provided in this Section 17. Should there develop a Dispute, such Dispute shall be resolved in the order of preference of Sections 17(b) - (d) below.

(i) Both parties agree to continue performing their obligations under this Letter Agreement pending the resolution of any Dispute that is being resolved hereunder unless and until such obligations are terminated or expire in accordance with the provisions of this Letter Agreement.

(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without waiting for the expiration of the time periods set forth above, each party shall have the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for appropriate interim or provisional relief, as necessary to protect its rights or property. Furthermore, nothing herein shall prevent the parties from resorting to a court of competent jurisdiction in those instances where preliminary injunctive relief would be appropriate, pending final resolution of the Dispute through arbitration. Nothing in this Section 17 shall be construed to prevent a party from instituting formal proceedings at any time to avoid the expiration of any statute of limitations period or to preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent this Letter Agreement permits the parties to apply for relief to or institute a proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction, nothing in this Letter Agreement or any other Investment Document will constitute a waiver of the right to a jury trial in such proceeding.

(a) Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Letter Agreement or otherwise agreed in writing, the receiving party (the “Receiving Party”) shall keep confidential and shall not publish or otherwise disclose or use for any purpose other than as provided for in this Letter Agreement any Confidential Information of the other party (the “Disclosing Party”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any information to the extent that: (i) it can be established by written documentation of the Receiving Party that such information is generally available to the public other than through unauthorized disclosure thereof by the Receiving Party; (ii) such information is lawfully acquired from other sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information, and without obligation of confidentiality; (iii) such information is approved for disclosure by the consent of the Disclosing Party; or (iv) such information is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

(b) Nothing in this Letter Agreement will be interpreted as placing any obligation of confidentiality or non-use on the Receiving Party with respect to any Confidential Information that the Receiving Party is required to disclose pursuant to law, regulation, or court order. In the event that Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by the Receiving Party pursuant to law, regulation, or court order, the Receiving Party shall make all reasonable efforts to notify the Disclosing Party of such requirement, in order to allow the Disclosing Party to seek a protective order or seek confidential treatment of such information.

(c) The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to its trustees, directors, officers, employees, consultants, and advisors (including lawyers and accountants) on a need to know basis, in each case subject to appropriate confidentiality provisions (or professional standards) reasonably acceptable to the Disclosing Party.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Letter Agreement, nothing herein shall prohibit the Foundation from any of the following: (i) analyzing Confidential Information; (ii) comparing the Confidential Information to information in the possession of the Foundation; or (iii) making any grant or other investment to, or entering into any agreement with, any third-party in furtherance of the Foundation’s charitable purpose, so long as in doing so, the Foundation does not disclose any Confidential Information except as permitted pursuant to Sections 18(a) through (c).

This Letter Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall be deemed to be and constitute one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Letter Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this certificate and has caused this certificate to be delivered on the date first above written.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is committed to information sharing and transparency. We believe that published research resulting from our funding should be promptly and broadly disseminated. We have adopted an Open Access policy that enables the unrestricted access and reuse of all peer-reviewed published research funded, in whole or in part, by the foundation, including any underlying data sets.

As of January 1, 2015, our Open Access policy will be effective for all new agreements. During a two-year transition period, publishers will be permitted to apply up to a 12-month embargo period on the accessibility of the publication and its underlying data sets. This embargo period will no longer be allowed after January 1, 2017.

Publications Are Discoverable and Accessible Online. Publications will be deposited in a specified repository(s) with proper tagging of metadata.

Publication Will Be On “Open Access” Terms. All publications shall be published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 Generic License (CC BY 4.0) or an equivalent license. This will permit all users of the publication to copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format and transform and build upon the material, including for any purpose (including commercial) without further permission or fees being required.

Foundation Will Pay Necessary Fees. The foundation would pay reasonable fees required by a publisher to effect publication on these terms.

Publications Will Be Accessible and Open Immediately. All publications shall be available immediately upon their publication, without any embargo period. An embargo period is the period during which the publisher will require a subscription or the payment of a fee to gain access to the publication. We are, however, providing a transition period of up to two years from the effective date of the policy (or until January 1, 2017). During the transition period, the foundation will allow publications in journals that provide up to a 12-month embargo period.

Data Underlying Published Research Results Will Be Accessible and Open Immediately. The foundation will require that data underlying the published research results be immediately accessible and open. This too is subject to the transition period and a 12-month embargo may be applied.
