2.2 Section 2.2; Know-How and Clinical Trial Information License. Section 2.2 (Know-How and Clinical Trial Information License) of the Original Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“2.2 Know-How, Clinical Trial Information, and Program Materials License.

2.2.1 University hereby grants to Company a non-exclusive, worldwide license to use, but not disclose unless expressly granted in this Agreement, Licensed Know-How, Licensed Clinical Trial Information, and Licensed Program Materials. Company is permitted to disclose Licensed Clinical Trial Information, Licensed Know-How and Licensed Program Materials as reasonably necessary or reasonably useful in relation to the submission of any IND for any clinical trial of a Licensed Product, or for patent applications subject to Subsection 2.2.2 below. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Licensed Know-How, Licensed Clinical Trial Information, or Licensed Program Materials that constitute Confidential Information, Company is permitted to disclose such Confidential Information for the purposes set forth in Subsections 13.3.2 and 13.3.4, and in such cases subject to the terms and conditions of such provisions and Subsection 2.2.2 below, as applicable. Unless otherwise terminated under Sections 9.2, 9.3 or 9.5, the term of this license will begin on the Effective Date and will continue [***].

2.2.2 Company will provide University, no more than [***] days following filing, a confidential copy of any patent applications filed by Company or any of its Sublicensees (for which Company has knowledge regarding such filing) that materially incorporate Licensed Program Materials and University and Company will work together in good faith to review and assess whether the University has ownership rights in such patent applications arising from inventorship and/or assignment obligations of the applicable inventors. For avoidance of doubt, inclusion by Company or any of its Sublicensees (for which Company has knowledge regarding such filing) in any patent application of any data, results, or conclusions transferred to Company in Licensed Program Materials that constitute University’s Confidential Information in a manner which is reasonably likely to give rise to an ownership right by University arising from inventorship and/or assignment obligations of the applicable inventors constitutes a material incorporation for the purposes of the foregoing sentence; provided that a lack of material incorporation, as defined in this sentence, and lack of notice by Company does not constitute a waiver by University of any potential ownership rights to patent applications filed by Company or any of its Sublicensees that incorporate Licensed Program Materials. In the event that University does have ownership rights in any such patent applications, University and Company will work together in good faith to determine a patent prosecution strategy regarding such patent applications and will discuss in good faith licensing by Company of any University interest in any such patent applications. Company will include notice and discussion requirements in any Sublicense under which Company grants a Sublicense or otherwise discloses any Licensed Program Materials no less stringent than those set forth above in this Subsection 2.2.2, with time periods for notice by the applicable Sublicensee to Company of appropriate duration to permit Company to comply with the provisions of this Subsection 2.2.2.”
