Whenever Landos or any of its successors or assigns provides to Lian any of the Intellectual Property licensed hereunder (or any embodiment thereof) pursuant to this Section 2.6(a) (Rights in Bankruptcy), Lian will have the right to perform Landos’ obligations hereunder with respect to such Intellectual Property, but neither such provision nor such performance by Lian will release Landos from liability resulting from rejection of the license or the failure to perform such obligations; and (2) not interfere with Lian’s rights under this Agreement, or any agreement supplemental hereto, to such Intellectual Property (including such embodiments),

including any right to obtain such Intellectual Property (or such embodiments) from another entity, to the extent provided in Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

(b) All rights, powers and remedies of Lian provided in this Section 2.6 (Rights in Bankruptcy) are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights, powers, and remedies now or hereafter existing at law or in equity (including the U.S. Bankruptcy Code) in the event of the commencement of a case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with respect to Landos. The Parties intend the following rights to extend to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, and to be enforceable under U.S. Bankruptcy Code Section 365(n): (A) the right of access to any Intellectual Property (and all embodiments thereof) of Landos or any Third Party that is licensed or sublicensed to Lian under this Agreement; and (B) the right to contract directly with any Third Party to complete the contracted work.

3.2 Development Plans.

(a) Territory-Specific Development Plan. Except for the activities allocated to Lian under a Global Development Plan, all Development of Compounds and Licensed Products in the Territory will be conducted pursuant to a written a plan (the “Territory-Specific Development Plan”), the initial draft of which will be prepared by Lian and submitted to the JSC [***].

Development Plan will become effective and supersede the then-current Territory-Specific Development Plan. In the event of any proposed change to the Development Plan as a result of any interaction with any Regulatory Authority, the JSC will meet as promptly as practicable to review and discuss any such proposed changes and determine an appropriate revision (if any) to the Territory-Specific Development Plan. If Lian is delayed in performing (or fails to perform) an obligation assigned to Lian in the Territory-Specific Development Plan as a result of Landos’ failure to timely perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or the Development Plan, then the timelines for the performance of Lian’s obligations under the Territory-Specific Development Plan will be extended commensurate with the delay caused by Landos.

the Territory), then Landos will give Lian notice thereof within a reasonable period (but not less than [***]) prior to allowing such Patent Rights to lapse or become abandoned or unenforceable, and Lian will have the right, but not the obligation, to assume the Prosecution of such Patent Rights in such Region, including paying any required fees to maintain such Patent Rights in such Region, all at Lian’s sole expense and through patent counsel or agents of its choice. Upon transfer of Landos’ responsibility for Prosecuting any of the Patent Rights to Lian under this Section 7.2(b) (Step-In Right), (i) Landos will promptly deliver to Lian copies of all necessary files related to the Patent Rights with respect to which responsibility has been transferred and will take all actions and execute all documents reasonably necessary for Lian to assume such Prosecution, and (ii) such Patent Right shall no longer extend the Royalty Term pursuant to Section 6.2(b) (Royalty Term). Thereafter, Lian will keep Landos reasonably informed of the status of such Prosecution of such Patent Rights.

(c) Cooperation. Each Party will, and will cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate, with the other Party with respect to the Prosecution of Licensed Patent Rights and Joint Patent Rights pursuant to this Section 7.2 (Prosecution and Maintenance of the Licensed Patent Rights and Joint Patent Rights), including with respect to obtaining patent term restoration, supplemental protection certificates or their equivalents, and patent terms extension with respect to the Licensed Patent Rights and Joint Patent Rights in any Region where applicable.

7.3 Third Party Infringement.

(a) Notice. Each Party will promptly notify the other in writing if such Party becomes aware of any suspected, threatened or actual infringement by any Third Party of any Licensed Technology or Joint Patent Right arising from the making, using, offering to sell, selling, or importing of a product in the Field in the Territory that could be competitive with a Licensed Product, and, in each case, will provide the other Party with all evidence in such Party’s possession or control supporting such infringement or unauthorized use or misappropriation (each, an “Infringement”).

(b) Lian First Right. As between the Parties, Lian will have the first right, but not the obligation, using counsel of its choosing and at its sole expense, to institute any infringement, misappropriation, or other appropriate Action against any Infringement of the Licensed Technology or Joint Patent Rights (any such Action, an “Infringement Action”) in the Field in the Territory. Landos shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to be represented in any Infringement Action by counsel of its own choice. Lian will notify Landos of its decision to commence an Infringement Action, will keep Landos apprised in writing of any such Infringement Action, and will consider Landos’ reasonable interests and requests regarding such Infringement Action.

(c) Landos Right. If Lian fails to commence a suit to enforce the Licensed Technology or Joint Patent Rights against such Infringement (or to settle or otherwise secure the abatement of such Infringement) within (i) [***] after its receipt or delivery of notice under Section 7.3 (Third Party Infringement), or (ii) [***] before the time limit, if any, set forth in the appropriate Laws for the filing of such actions, whichever comes first, or ceases to diligently pursue such Infringement Action, then Landos will have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense to institute such Infringement Action against the applicable Third Party infringer(s).

(d) Cooperation. In any Infringement Action brought under the Licensed Technology or Joint Patent Rights pursuant to Section 7.3(b) (Lian First Right) and Section 7.3(c) (Landos Right), each Party will, and will cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with each other, in good faith, relative to the other Party’s efforts to protect the Licensed Technology and Joint Patent Rights, and will join such suit as a party, if requested by the other Party. Furthermore, the Party initiating any Infringement Action pursuant to Section 7.3(b) (Lian First Right) or Section 7.3(c) (Landos Right) will consider in good faith all reasonable and timely comments from the other Party on any proposed arguments asserted or to be asserted in litigation related to the enforcement or defense of any such Patent Rights. Neither Party will have the right to settle any Infringement Action under this Section 7.3 (Third Party Infringement) in a manner that diminishes the rights or interests of the other Party under this Agreement without the consent of such other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

(e) Allocation of Recoveries. Any settlements, damages or monetary awards recovered by either Party pursuant to any Infringement Action will (i) first be allocated to reimbursing the Parties for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in making such recovery (which amounts will be allocated pro rata if insufficient to cover the totality of such expenses), and (ii) [***].

7.4 Claimed Infringement. Each Party will promptly notify the other Party if a Third Party brings any Action alleging patent infringement by Lian or Landos or any of their respective Affiliates or Sublicensees with respect to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of any Licensed Product or Joint Patent Rights (any such Action, an “Infringement Claim”) in the Territory. Lian will have the right, but not the obligation, to control the defense and response to any such Infringement Claim in the Territory with respect to Lian’s activities, at Lian’s sole cost and expense, and Landos will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such Infringement Claim in the Territory by counsel of its own choice. Landos will have the sole right, but not the obligation, to control the defense and response to any such Infringement Claim with respect to Landos’ activities, including any such Infringement Claim in the Territory or outside of the Territory. Upon the request of the Party controlling the response to the Infringement Claim, the other Party will reasonably cooperate with the controlling Party in the reasonable defense of such Infringement Claim. The other Party will have the right to consult with the controlling Party concerning any Infringement Claim and to participate in and be represented by independent counsel in any associated litigation. If the Infringement Claim is brought against both Parties, then each Party will have the right to defend against the Infringement Claim. The Party defending an Infringement Claim under this Section 7.4 (Claimed Infringement) will (a) consult with the other Party as to the strategy for the prosecution of such defense, (b) consider in good faith any comments from the other Party with respect thereto and (c) keep the other Party reasonably informed of any material steps taken and provide copies of all material documents filed, in connection with such defense. The Party controlling the defense against an Infringement Claim will have the right to settle such Infringement Claim on terms deemed reasonably appropriate by such Party, provided, that, neither Party will have the right to settle any Infringement Claim under this Section 7.4 (Claimed Infringement) in a manner that diminishes the rights or interests of the other Party under this Agreement without the consent of such other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

7.5 Common Interest. All information exchanged between the Parties regarding the Prosecution, enforcement, and defense, of Licensed Patent Rights and Joint Patent Rights under this Article 7 (Intellectual Property Ownership, Protection and Related Matters) will be deemed Confidential Information of the disclosing Party. In addition, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, with

regard to such Prosecution, enforcement, and defense, the interests of the Parties as collaborators and licensor and licensee are to obtain the strongest patent protection possible, and as such, are aligned and are legal in nature. The Parties agree and acknowledge that they have not waived, and nothing in this Agreement constitutes a waiver of, any legal privilege concerning the Patent Rights under this Article 7 (Intellectual Property Ownership, Protection and Related Matters), including privilege under the common interest doctrine and similar or related doctrines. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, to the extent a Party has a good faith belief that any information required to be disclosed by such Party to the other Party under this Article 7 (Intellectual Property Ownership, Protection and Related Matters) is protected by attorney-client privilege or any other applicable legal privilege or immunity, such Party will not be required to disclose such information, and the Parties will in good faith cooperate to agree upon a procedure (including entering into a specific common interest agreement, disclosing such information on a “for counsel eyes only” basis or similar procedure) under which such information may be disclosed without waiving or breaching such privilege or immunity.

Article 8
CONFIDENTIALITY AND PUBLICITY

8.1 Confidential Information.

(a) Confidentiality Obligation. During the Term and for a period of [***] years after any termination or expiration of this Agreement, each Party agrees to, and will cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees and contractors to, keep in confidence and not to disclose to any Third Party, or use for any purpose, except to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under this Agreement, any Confidential Information of the other Party, without the prior written consent of such disclosing Party. The existence and terms of this Agreement are the Confidential Information of each Party.

(b) Permitted Disclosures. Each Party agrees that it and its Affiliates will provide or permit access to the other Party’s Confidential Information only to the receiving Party’s employees, consultants, advisors, licensees, collaboration partners, and Sublicensees, and to the employees, consultants and advisors of the receiving Party’s Affiliates, in each case on a need to know basis who are subject to obligations of confidentiality and non-use with respect to such Confidential Information no less stringent than the obligations of confidentiality and non-use of the receiving Party pursuant to this Section 8.1 (Confidential Information). Each Party will remain responsible for any failure by its Affiliates, licensees, collaboration partners, or Sublicensees, and its and its Affiliates’ respective employees, consultants and advisors, to treat such Confidential Information as required under this Section 8.1 (Confidential Information) as if such Affiliates, employees, consultants, advisors, licensees, collaboration partners, and Sublicensees were parties directly bound to the requirements of this Section 8.1 (Confidential Information).

(c) Confidentiality Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, each Party may use and disclose the other Party’s Confidential Information as follows: (i) under appropriate written confidentiality and non-use obligations no less stringent than those in this Agreement, to its Affiliates, bona fide potential or actual collaboration partners, licensors, Sublicensees, licensees, or strategic partners and to employees, directors, agents, consultants, and advisers of any other Third Parties, (ii) to its financial advisors, attorneys and accountants, bona fide actual or potential acquisition partners, financing sources or investors and underwriters on a need to know basis, in each case under appropriate confidentiality and non-use obligations (which may include

professional ethical obligations) no less stringent than those in this Agreement; provided, however, that each Party will remain responsible for any failure by any of the foregoing individuals to treat such Confidential Information as required under Section 8.1 (Confidential Information) as if such individuals were parties directly bound to the requirements of this Section 8.1 (Confidential Information), or (iii) as required by any court or other governmental body or as otherwise required by applicable Laws (including any such disclosures as are required by a Regulatory Authority in connection with seeking Regulatory Approval, Pricing and Reimbursement Approval, import authorization for any Licensed Product in the Territory, or the rules or regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or similar Regulatory Authority in a country other than the United States or of any stock exchange or listing entity (including in connection with the public sale of securities)); provided, that, notice is promptly given to the other Party and the disclosing Party cooperates with reasonable requests from the other Party to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy to protect the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Article 8 (Confidentiality and Publicity), Confidential Information that is permitted or required to be disclosed will remain otherwise subject to the confidentiality and non-use provisions of Section 8.1(b) (Permitted Disclosures) and this Section 8.1(c) (Confidentiality Limitation). If either Party concludes that a copy of this Agreement must be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or similar Governmental Authority in a country other than the United States, then such Party will, a reasonable time prior to any such filing, provide the other Party with a copy of such agreement showing any provisions hereof as to which the Party proposes to request confidential treatment, will provide the other Party with an opportunity to comment on any such proposed redactions and to suggest additional redactions, and will take such Party’s reasonable comments into consideration before filing such agreement and use reasonable efforts to have terms identified by such other Party afforded confidential treatment by the applicable Regulatory Authority.

(d) Secrecy of Licensed Know-How. Without limiting the generality of Section 8.1(a) (Confidentiality Obligation), during the Term the receiving Party will protect, and will cause, to the extent applicable, its Affiliates and Sublicensees, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents to protect, the secrecy and confidentiality of the Licensed Know-How and unpublished Patent Rights using at least the same degree of care as it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own other confidential information of like importance and in any event a reasonable duty of care.

(e) Residual Knowledge. The Parties acknowledge the practical difficulty of policing the use of information inadvertently retained in the unaided memory of a receiving Party or its Affiliates and its and their officers, directors, employees, and agents who have had rightful access to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party (“Residual Knowledge”), and as such each Party agrees that the receiving Party will not be liable for the inadvertent use (without reference to any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party) by any of its or its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, or agents of the Residual Knowledge that is inadvertently retained in the unaided memory of such officer, director, employee, or agent; provided that such officer, director, employee, or agent has not been directed to or otherwise intentionally memorized or retained such Residual Knowledge for use other than as explicitly permitted under this Agreement. The receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that any use made by the receiving Party of any such Residual Knowledge is on an “as is, where is” basis and at its sole risk, with all faults and all representations and warranties disclaimed by the disclosing Party.

8.2 Publicity. The Parties acknowledge the importance of supporting each other’s efforts to publicly disclose results and significant developments regarding the Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory, and each Party may make such disclosures from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including this Section 8.2 (Publicity). Such disclosures may include achievement of milestones, significant events in the Development process with respect to Licensed Products, or Commercialization activities with respect to Licensed Products.

(a) On a date to be agreed by the Parties, the Parties will jointly issue a press release regarding the signing of this Agreement. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence and for disclosures permitted in accordance with Section 8.1(b) (Permitted Disclosures), whenever either Party elects to make any public disclosure regarding milestones or other significant events in the Development or Commercialization of the Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory, it will first notify the other Party of such planned press release or public announcement and provide a draft for review no less than [***] in advance of issuing such press release or making such public announcement (or, with respect to press releases and public announcements that are required by applicable Laws, with as much advance notice as possible under the circumstances if it is not possible to provide notice at least [***] in advance). Each Party will have the right to review and approve any such planned press release or public announcement proposed by the other Party with respect to Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory, or that includes Confidential Information of the other Party. In such case, (i) the reviewing Party will attempt to provide such approval as soon as reasonably possible and will not unreasonably withhold such approval; (ii) the reviewing Party will provide explanations of its disapproval of such press release; and (iii) a Party desiring to make such public disclosure may issue such press release or public announcement without such prior review by the other Party if (A) the contents of such press release or public announcement have previously been made public other than through a breach of this Agreement by such Party, and (B) such press release or public announcement is consistent with the previously issued press release or other publicly available information. The Party reviewing a press release provided under this clause (i) of this Section 8.2(a) (Publicity) will review and approve or disapprove such press release within [***] Business Days after its receipt thereof.

(b) In the event that either Party proposes to publish or present the results of Development or Commercialization carried out on the Licensed Product, including any oral presentation or abstract that contain clinical data or pertain to results of Clinical Trials or other studies, such publication or presentation will be subject to the prior review by the other Party for protection of such other Party’s Confidential Information. Each Party will provide to the other Party the opportunity to review a draft of any proposed publication that covers the results of Development or Commercialization of Licensed Products during the Term, and the submitting Party will remove from such proposed publication any Confidential Information of the other Party as reasonably requested by the other Party.

Landos will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Lian, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, a “Lian Indemnified Party”), from, against and in respect of any and all Third Party Losses incurred or suffered by any Lian Indemnified Party to the extent arising from or relating to: (a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Landos in this Agreement, or any breach by Landos of any obligation, covenant, or agreement in this Agreement; (b) the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Landos or any of its Affiliates, (sub)licensees (other than Lian), or contractors, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents, in performing Landos’ obligations or exercising Landos’ rights under this Agreement; (c) activities conducted by or on behalf of Landos or its Affiliates or Sublicensees or contractors related to the Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of

Licensed Products anywhere in the world prior to the Effective Date; and (d) the Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of the Licensed Products by or on behalf of Landos, any of its Affiliates, Sublicensees (other than Lian), or contractors outside the Territory; provided, however, that Landos’ obligations pursuant to this Section 10.1 (Indemnification by Landos) will not apply to the extent such Third Party Losses result from Third Party Losses for which Lian has an obligation to indemnify Landos pursuant to Section 10.2 (Indemnification by Lian).

10.2 Indemnification by Lian. Lian will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landos, its Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, a “Landos Indemnified Party”) from, against and in respect of any and all Third Party Losses incurred or suffered by any Landos Indemnified Party to the extent arising from or relating to: (a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Lian in this Agreement, or any breach by Lian of any obligation, covenant, or agreement in this Agreement, (b) the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of, or violation of Laws by, Lian, any of its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or contractors, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents, in performing Lian’s obligations or exercising Lian’s rights under this Agreement, or (c) the Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of the Licensed Product by or on behalf of Lian or its Affiliates or Sublicensees (other than Landos) or contractors; provided, however, that Lian’s obligations pursuant to this Section 10.2 (Indemnification by Lian) will not apply to the extent such Third Party Losses result from Third Party Losses for which Landos has an obligation to indemnify Lian pursuant to Section 10.1 (Indemnification by Landos).

10.3 Claims for Indemnification.

(a) Notice. An Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification under Section 10.1 (Indemnification by Landos) or Section 10.2 (Indemnification by Lian) will give prompt written notification to the Indemnifying Party from whom indemnification is sought of the commencement of any Action by a Third Party for which indemnification may be sought (a “Third Party Claim”) or, if earlier, upon the assertion of such Third Party Claim by a Third Party; provided, however, that failure by an Indemnified Party to give notice of a Third Party Claim as provided in this Section 10.3(a) (Notice) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement, except and only to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice.

(b) Defense. Within [***] days after delivery of a notice of any Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 10.3(a) (Notice), the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume control of such defense, then the Indemnified Party may control such defense (with counsel reasonably selected by the Indemnified Party and approved by the Indemnifying Party, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). The Party not controlling such defense may participate therein at its own expense.

(c) Cooperation. The Party controlling the defense of any Third Party Claim will keep the other Party advised of the status and material developments of such Third Party Claim and the defense thereof and will reasonably consider recommendations made by the other Party with respect thereto.

(d) Settlement. The Indemnified Party will not agree to any settlement of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnifying Party will not agree to any settlement of such Third Party Claim or consent to any judgment in respect thereof that does not include a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect thereto or that imposes any liability or obligation on the Indemnified Party (other than a monetary obligation on the Indemnifying Party), without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which will not be unreasonably withheld (unless such compromise or settlement involves (i) any admission of legal wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, (ii) any payment by the Indemnified Party that is not indemnified under this Agreement, or (iii) the imposition of any equitable relief against the Indemnified Party (in which case, (i) through (iii), the Indemnified Party may withhold its consent to such settlement in its sole discretion)).

(e) Mitigation of Loss. Each Indemnified Party will take and will procure that its Affiliates and Sublicensees take all such reasonable steps and actions as are necessary or as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require in order to mitigate any Third Party Claims (or potential losses or damages) under this Article 10 (Indemnification; Damages). Nothing in this Agreement will or will be deemed to relieve any Party of any common law or other duty to mitigate any losses incurred by it.

10.4 Insurance. Each Party, at its own expense, will maintain liability insurance (or self-insure) with respect to its activities under this Agreement in an amount consistent with industry standards. Each Party will provide a certificate of insurance (or evidence of self-insurance) evidencing such coverage to the other Party upon request. Without limiting the foregoing, during the Term and thereafter for the period of time required below, each Party will maintain on an ongoing basis comprehensive general liability insurance policies which are consistent with normal business practices of prudent companies similar situated in such Party’s territory. Not later than [***] days following receipt of written request from a Party, the other Party will provide to the requesting Party a certificate of insurance evidencing such insurance policies. Each Party will maintain such insurance or self-insurance coverage without interruption during the Term and for a period of [***] thereafter, and, if applicable, will provide certificates or letters evidencing such insurance coverage without interruption as reasonably requested during the period of time for which such coverage must be maintained. Each Party will be provided at least [***] days’ prior written notice of any cancellation or material decrease in the other Party’s insurance coverage limits described above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party’s failure to maintain adequate insurance will not relieve that Party of its obligations set forth in this Agreement.

Article 12
TERM AND TERMINATION

12.1 Term. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with this Article 12 (Term and Termination), this Agreement will become effective as of the Effective Date and will continue in full force, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed and Region-by-Region basis, until the expiration of the Royalty Term applicable to such Licensed Product and such Region (the “Term”).

12.2 Paid-Up License Upon End of Royalty Term. Upon the expiration of the Royalty Term for a given Licensed Product in a given Region in the Territory, the licenses and rights of reference granted to Lian pursuant to Section 2.1 (License Grants; Rights of Reference) will become perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid-up, royalty free, fully sublicensable, and transferable with respect to such Licensed Product in such Region.

12.3 Early Termination.

(a) Termination for Material Breach. Upon (i) any material breach of this Agreement by Landos or (ii) any material breach of this Agreement by Lian (the Party so allegedly breaching being the “Breaching Party”), the other Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) will have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the Breaching Party within [***] days’ in the case of a payment breach, or [***] days’ in the case of any other material breach, which notice will, in each case (A) expressly reference this Section 12.3(a) (Termination for Material Breach), (B) reasonably describe the alleged breach that is the basis of such termination, and (C) clearly state the Non-Breaching Party’s intent to terminate this Agreement if the alleged breach is not cured within the applicable cure period. If such breach relates solely to one or more Licensed Products or Regions of the Territory, then the non-breaching Party will have the right to terminate this Agreement solely with respect to such Licensed Product(s) or Region(s), as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such material breach, by its nature, is curable, but is not reasonably curable within the applicable cure period, then such cure period will be extended by up to an additional [***] days if the Breaching Party provides a reasonable written plan for curing such breach to the Non-Breaching Party and uses reasonable efforts to cure such breach in accordance with such written plan. In addition, if the Breaching Party disputes (A) whether it has materially breached this Agreement, (B) whether such material breach is reasonably curable within the applicable cure period, or (C) whether it has cured such material breach within the applicable cure period, then the dispute will be resolved pursuant to Article 13 (Dispute Resolution), and the applicable cure period will be tolled during the pendency of such dispute resolution procedure.

(b) Termination for Patent Challenge. Except to the extent the following is unenforceable under the Laws of a particular jurisdiction in the Territory or as otherwise provided in this Section 12.3(b) (Termination for Patent Challenge), Landos may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Lian if Lian, its Affiliates, or Sublicensees, individually or in association

with any other person or entity, commences a legal action challenging the validity, enforceability, or scope of any Licensed Patent Rights in a court or other governmental agency of competent jurisdiction in the Territory, including a reexamination or opposition proceeding (a “Patent Challenge”); provided that, if Lian or its Affiliate or Sublicensee withdraws (or causes to be withdrawn) such Patent Challenge within [***] days after being requested to do so by Landos in writing (which termination notice will be deemed a request), then Landos will have no right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.3(b) (Termination for Patent Challenge). In addition, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Landos may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.3(b) (Termination for Patent Challenge) (i) if Lian or its Affiliate or Sublicensee is required by legal process to be joined as a party in any Patent Challenge by a Third Party, or (ii) with respect to: (A) any affirmative defense or other validity, enforceability, or non-infringement challenge, whether in the same action or in any other agency or forum of competent jurisdiction, advanced by Lian, or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees in response to any claim or action brought in the first instance by, or on behalf of, Landos, (B) any Patent Challenge to the extent commenced by a Third Party that after the Effective Date acquires or is acquired by Lian or any of its Affiliates or its or their business or assets, whether by stock purchase, merger, asset purchase, or otherwise; provided that such proceeding commenced prior to the closing of such acquisition, or (C) any Patent Challenge that is commenced by a Sublicensee; provided that Lian demands that such Sublicensee withdraw such Patent Challenge promptly after Lian becomes aware of such Patent Challenge and terminates the sublicense agreement with the applicable Sublicensee if such Sublicensee does not withdraw such Patent Challenge within [***] days after receipt of notice from Lian.

(c) Termination for Insolvency. Subject to Section 2.6 (Rights in Bankruptcy), either Party may terminate this Agreement upon delivery of written notice to the other Party if (i) such other Party files in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any jurisdiction a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or similar arrangement for the benefit of creditors or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of such other Party or its assets, (ii) such other Party is served with an involuntary petition against it in any insolvency proceeding and such involuntary petition has not been stayed or dismissed within [***] days of its filing, or (iii) such other Party makes an assignment of substantially all of its assets for the benefit of its creditors.

(d) Termination by Lian for Convenience. Lian may, upon [***] days’ prior written notice to Landos, terminate this Agreement for convenience, without cause, and for any or no reason, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis.

12.4 Effects of Termination.

(a) Effects of Termination Generally. Upon any termination of this Agreement with respect to one or more Licensed Products (a “Terminated Product”) or Regions (a “Terminated Region”), then the Parties’ rights, licenses and obligations under this Agreement will terminate with respect to the applicable Terminated Product or Terminated Region and neither Party will have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement from and after the effective date of termination with respect to the applicable Terminated Product or Terminated Region, except as set forth in this Section 12.4 (Effects of Termination).

(b) Winding Down of Activities. If there are any on-going Development or Commercialization activities with respect to a Terminated Product or Terminated Region at termination or

expiration of this Agreement, then the Parties will negotiate in good faith and adopt a plan to wind-down such activities in an orderly fashion or, at Landos’ election and unless prohibited by any Regulatory Authority or applicable Law, promptly transition such activities from Lian to Landos or its designee, with due regard for patient safety and the rights of any subjects that are participants in any Clinical Trials of the Licensed Products, and take any actions it deems reasonably necessary or appropriate to avoid any human health or safety problems and, with respect to any Clinical Trial transitioned to Landos or its designee, to minimize any disruption to such Clinical Trial, and in compliance with all applicable Law.

(i) Upon termination of this Agreement, Lian, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates hereby grants (effective on delivery of the notice of termination) to Landos a worldwide, irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, exclusive license under the Product Inventions and Patent Rights controlled by Lian that cover any such Product Inventions, in each case, in existence as of the applicable effective date of termination, to Develop, Manufacture, and Commercialize Compounds and Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory (the “Reversion License”). If any rights granted by Lian under the Reversion License are Controlled by Lian or its Affiliates or Sublicensees pursuant to an agreement with a Third Party, then Landos will pay all amounts due under any such agreement to the extent reasonably allocable to Landos’ exercise of the rights granted thereunder.

(ii) Effective upon any termination of this Agreement in all Regions of the Territory, if, as of the effective date of termination, the Terminated Product has achieved First Commercial Sale in any Region in the Territory, then Lian will assign and transfer (and if unable to assign and transfer, exclusively license) to Landos any Trademarks owned or Controlled by Lian that are specific to such Terminated Product for the purpose of Commercializing such Terminated Product, together with all goodwill associated with the specific Trademarks. If this Agreement is terminated with respect to one or more, but not all, Regions in the Territory, then Lian will grant an exclusive license to Landos under any Trademarks in the Terminated Region owned or Controlled by Lian or its Affiliates that are specific to such Terminated Product for the purpose of Commercializing such Terminated Product in the Terminated Region.

(iii) If Landos or its or their Affiliates or Sublicensees exercises the Reversion License or the rights granted pursuant to Section 12.4(h) (Transfer of Regulatory Filings and Regulatory Approvals) and this Agreement has been terminated by Lian pursuant to Section 12.3(a) (Termination for Material Breach), then Landos will pay to Lian, in consideration of the rights granted to Landos, [***].

(d) Discontinuation of JSC. Upon termination of this Agreement in its entirety, the JSC will cease to exist; provided, however, that if this Agreement is terminated with respect to one or more Terminated Products or Terminated Regions only, then the JSC will continue with respect to the non-terminated Licensed Products or Regions only.

(e) Accrued Obligations. Expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason will not release either Party from any obligation or liability that, on the effective date of such

expiration or termination, has already accrued to the other Party or that is attributable to a period prior to such expiration or termination.

(f) Survival. This Section 12.4(f) (Survival), the provisions set forth in the following Sections, as well as, to the extent applicable, any other Sections or defined terms referred to in such Sections or Articles or necessary to give them effect, will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement in its entirety: Articles 6 (solely to the extent any payment obligations have accrued prior to expiration or termination), 8, 10, 11, 13 and 14 and Sections 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.4(a), 7.1, 9.5, 12.2 and 12.4. Furthermore, any other provisions required to interpret the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement, including applicable definitions in Article 1 (Definitions), will survive to the extent required. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, including this Section 12.4(f) (Survival), any licenses granted under this Agreement will terminate upon expiration or termination of this Agreement in its entirety or solely with respect to a Terminated Product or Terminated Region, as the case may be, for any reason.

(g) Inventory.

(i) Sell-Off Period. Lian will have the right, for a period of [***] following termination of this Agreement in any Region, to sell or otherwise dispose of any Licensed Products in such terminated Regions, as applicable, on hand at the time of such termination or in the process of Manufacturing (the “Sell-Off Period”).

(ii) Landos Buy-Back. Upon expiration of any Sell-Off Period in any Region, Landos will have the right to purchase all of Lian’s and its Affiliates’ remaining inventory of Licensed Products held as of the effective date of expiration of such Sell-Off Period at a price equal to (A) [***], if supplied by Landos or (B) if Manufactured by Lian, [***].

(h) Transfer of Regulatory Filings and Regulatory Approvals. Following the effectiveness of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.3 (Early Termination), after Landos’ written request, Lian will, to the extent permitted under applicable Laws, and at Landos’ sole cost and expense (unless the applicable termination giving rise to Landos’ rights under this Section 12.4(h) (Transfer of Regulatory Filings and Regulatory Approvals) was initiated by Landos pursuant to Section 12.3 (Early Termination), in which case such transfer will be at Lian’s sole cost and expense), assign and transfer to Landos all Regulatory Filings, filings for Pricing and Reimbursement Approval and Marketing Authorizations for Licensed Products that are held by or owned by Lian or its Affiliates or Sublicensees as of the effective date of termination, with respect to the terminated Region, as the case may be.

(i) Return of Confidential Information. Within [***] after the effective date of termination (but not expiration) of this Agreement in its entirety, each Party will, and cause its Affiliates to (i) destroy, all tangible items solely comprising, bearing or containing any Confidential Information of the other Party that are in such first Party’s or its Affiliates’ possession or Control, and provide written certification of such destruction, or (ii) prepare such tangible items of the other Party’s Confidential Information for shipment to such other Party, as such other Party may direct, at the first Party’s expense; provided, however, that, in any event, (A) each Party may retain copies of the Confidential Information of the other Party to the extent necessary to perform its obligations or exercise its rights that survive

expiration or termination of this Agreement; and (B) each Party may retain copies of the Confidential Information of the other Party for its legal archives.

Article 13
DISPUTE RESOLUTION

13.1 Dispute Resolution; Escalation. The Parties recognize that disputes as to certain matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement may arise from time to time. It is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement in an expedited manner by mutual cooperation. To accomplish this objective, any and all disputes between the Parties arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (other than matters within the purview of the JSC, which will be resolved in accordance with Section 5.5 (Decision-Making; Escalation to Senior Officers)), will first be referred to the Senior Officers for resolution. The Senior Officers will attempt to resolve the matter in good faith. If the Senior Officers fail to resolve such matter within [***] Business Days after the date on which the matter is referred to the Senior Officers (unless a longer period is agreed to by the Parties), then either Party may submit the dispute for final resolution by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 13.2 (Arbitration).

13.2 Arbitration. Except as set forth in Section 12.4(c) (License Grant to Landos) and this Section 13.2 (Arbitration), each dispute, difference, controversy or claim arising in connection with or related or incidental to, or question occurring under, this Agreement or the subject matter hereof that cannot be resolved pursuant to Section 13.1 (Dispute Resolution; Escalation) will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the International Chamber of Commerce (the “Rules”) by an arbitral tribunal composed of three arbitrators, all of whom will have previous judicial experience and significant experience in the biopharmaceutical industry, with each Party appointing one arbitrator and the third arbitrator to be selected by agreement of the two arbitrators appointed by the Parties. If the two initial arbitrators are unable to select a third arbitrator within [***] days, then the third arbitrator will be appointed in accordance with ICC rules. The foregoing arbitration proceedings may be commenced by either Party by notice to the other Party. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, all such arbitration proceedings will be held in [***]. All arbitration proceedings will be conducted in the English language. The arbitrators will consider grants of equitable relief and orders for specific performance as co-equal remedies along with awards of monetary damages. The arbitrators will have no authority to award punitive damages. The allocation of expenses of the arbitration, including reasonable attorney’s fees, will be determined by the arbitrators, or, in the absence of such determination, each Party will pay its own expenses. The Parties hereby agree that the arbitrators have authority to issue rulings and orders regarding all procedural and evidentiary matters that the arbitrators deem reasonable and necessary with or without petition therefore by the Parties as well as the final ruling and judgment. All rulings by the arbitrators will be final. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, any Party may seek equitable measures of protection in the form of attachment of assets or injunctive relief (including specific performance and injunctive relief) in any matter relating to the proprietary rights and interests of either Party from any court of competent jurisdiction, pending a decision by the arbitral tribunal in accordance with this Section 13.2 (Arbitration). The Parties hereby exclude any right of appeal to any court on the merits of such matter. The provisions of this Section 13.2 (Arbitration) may be enforced and judgment on the award (including equitable remedies) granted in any arbitration hereunder may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the award or any of the Parties or any of their respective assets. Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or as may be required by Laws, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. The Parties agree that, in the event of a dispute over the nature or quality of performance under this

Agreement, neither Party may terminate this Agreement until final resolution of the dispute through arbitration or other judicial determination. Nothing in this Section 13.2 (Arbitration) will preclude either Party from seeking interim or provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable relief, concerning a dispute either prior to or during any arbitration if necessary to protect the interests of such Party or to preserve the status quo pending the arbitration proceeding. Notwithstanding the Parties’ agreement to arbitrate, unless the Parties agree in writing in any particular case, claims and disputes between the Parties relating to or arising out of, or for which resolution depends in whole or in part on a determination of the interpretation, scope, validity, enforceability or infringement of, Patent Rights or of any Trademark rights relating to any Licensed Products will not be subject to arbitration under this Agreement, and the Parties may pursue whatever rights and remedies may be available to them under law or equity, including litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction, with respect to such claims and disputes.

13.3 JURY WAIVER. EACH PARTY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS IT CONTEMPLATES TO ARBITRATE AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 13.2 (ARBITRATION). THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY ACTION OR LEGAL PROCEEDING, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.

Article 14
MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 Assignment. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of each Party under this Agreement will not be assignable, delegable, transferable, pledged or otherwise disposed of by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that either Party may assign or transfer this Agreement together with all of its rights and obligations hereunder, without such consent (but with written notice to the other Party), (A) to an Affiliate or (B) to a successor in interest in connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of its business or assets to which this Agreement relates, or in the event of its merger or consolidation, reorganization or similar transaction. Any permitted assignment of the rights and obligations of a Party under this Agreement will be binding on, and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by and against, the successors and permitted assigns of the assigning Party. Any assignment in violation of this Section 14.1 (Assignment) will be null and void.

14.2 Choice of Laws. This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted under the Laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof. Any dispute, controversy, claim or difference of any kind whatsoever arising out of or in connection with this Agreement will be resolved exclusively in accordance with Section 13.2 (Arbitration); provided, however, that all questions concerning (a) inventorship of Patent Rights under this Agreement will be determined in accordance with Section 7.1 (Ownership of Inventions) and (b) the construction or effect of Patent Rights will be determined in accordance with the Laws of the country, Region or other jurisdiction in which the particular patent within such Patent Rights has been filed or granted, as the case may be. Any communication or proceedings resulting from disputes under this Agreement will be in English language. The Parties agree to exclude the application to this Agreement of the United Nations Conventions on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (1980).

14.3 Notices. All notices that are required or permitted hereunder will be in writing and sufficient if delivered by internationally-recognized overnight courier or sent by registered or certified mail,

postage prepaid, return receipt requested, and in each case, addressed as follows (with a courtesy copy sent by email, which will not constitute notice):


If to Landos:	[*] Attention: [] Email: [**]
With copies to:	[*] Attention: [] Email: [] [] Attention: [] Email: [*]

Any such notice will be deemed to have been given: (a) on [***] after dispatch if sent by internationally-recognized overnight courier; or (b) on the [***] after dispatch if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested.

14.4 Severability. In the event that one or more provisions of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, then such provision will not render any other provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, and all other provisions will remain in full force and effect and will be enforceable, unless the provisions that have been found to be invalid or unenforceable will substantially affect the remaining rights or obligations granted or undertaken by either Party. The Parties agree to attempt to substitute for any invalid or unenforceable provision a provision which achieves to the greatest extent possible the economic objectives of the invalid or unenforceable provision.

14.5 Integration. This Agreement, together with all schedules attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all previous arrangements between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral, including, effective as of the Effective Date, the Term Sheet (provided that all information disclosed or exchanged under such agreement will be treated as Confidential Information hereunder). In the event of a conflict between the Development Plan or any schedules or attachments to this Agreement, on the one hand, and this Agreement, on the other hand, the terms

of this Agreement will govern. Each Party confirms that it is not relying on any representations or warranties of the other Party except as specifically set forth in this Agreement.

14.6 Waivers and Amendments. The failure of any Party to assert a right under this Agreement or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse a similar subsequent failure to perform any such term or condition by the other Party. The exercise by any Party of any right or election under the terms or covenants herein will not preclude or prejudice any Party from exercising the same or any other right it may have under this Agreement, irrespective of any previous action or proceeding taken by the Parties hereunder. Notwithstanding the authority granted to the JSC under this Agreement, (a) no waiver will be effective unless it has been given in writing and signed by the Party giving such waiver, and (b) no provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified other than by a written document signed by authorized representatives of each Party.

14.7 Independent Contractors; No Agency. Neither Party will have any responsibility for the hiring, firing or compensation of the other Party’s or such other Party’s Affiliates’ employees or for any employee benefits with respect thereto. No employee or representative of a Party or its Affiliates will have any authority to bind or obligate the other Party for any sum or in any manner whatsoever, or to create or impose any contractual or other liability on such other Party, without such other Party’s written approval. For all purposes, and notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, each Party’s legal relationship under this Agreement to the other Party will be that of independent contractor, and the relationship between the two Parties will not constitute a partnership, joint venture, or agency, including for all tax purposes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

14.8 Affiliates, Sublicensees, and Contractors. To the extent that this Agreement imposes obligations on Affiliates, Sublicensees, or contractors of a Party, such Party will cause its Affiliates and its Sublicensees and contractors to perform such obligations, as applicable. Either Party may use one or more of its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or contractors to perform its obligations and duties or exercise its rights under this Agreement, solely to the extent permitted and as specified in this Agreement; provided that (a) each such Affiliate, Sublicensee, or contractor will perform any such obligations delegated to it in compliance with the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement as if such Affiliate, Sublicensee, or contractor were a party hereto, (b) the performance of any obligations of a Party’s by its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or contractors will not diminish, reduce, or eliminate any obligation of such Party under this Agreement, and (c) subject to such Party’s assignment to an Affiliate pursuant to Section 14.1 (Assignment), such Party will remain liable under this Agreement for the prompt payment and performance of all of its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to this Section 14.8 (Affiliates, Sublicensees, and Contractors), if a Party exercises its rights and performs its obligations under this Agreement through one or more of its Affiliates, “Landos” will be interpreted to mean “Landos or its Affiliates” and “Lian” will be interpreted to mean “Lian or its Affiliates” where necessary to give each Party’s Affiliates the benefit of the rights provided to such Party in this Agreement and the ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

14.9 Force Majeure. Neither Party will be held liable to the other Party nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in achieving any objective, satisfying any condition, or performing any obligation under this Agreement to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts or events beyond the reasonable control of such Party, including, without limitation, acts of God, embargoes, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), terrorism, insurrections, riots, civil commotions, strikes, lockouts, or other labor disturbances, government actions, unavailability of supplies, materials or transportation, fire,

earthquakes, floods, epidemics, pandemics, the spread of infectious diseases, and quarantines (“Force Majeure”). The Parties agree the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that is ongoing as of the Effective Date (including related government orders) may be invoked as a Force Majeure for the purposes of this Agreement even though the pandemic is ongoing and those effects may be reasonably foreseeable as of the Effective Date. In addition, a Force Majeure may include reasonable measures affirmatively taken by a Party or its Affiliates to respond to any epidemic, pandemic, or spread of infectious disease (including the COVID-19 pandemic), or other Force Majeure event, such as requiring employees to stay home, closures of facilities, delays of Clinical Trials, or cessation of activities in response to an epidemic or other Force Majeure event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party will not be excused from making payments owed hereunder due to any such Force Majeure circumstances affecting such Party. The affected Party will notify the other Party in writing of any Force Majeure circumstances as soon as reasonably practical, and will provide a good faith estimate of the period for which its failure or delay in performance under the Agreement is expected to continue based on currently available information. The affected Party shall promptly undertake all reasonable efforts necessary to cure such Force Majeure circumstances.

14.10 No Third Party Beneficiary Rights. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns, and they will not be construed as conferring any rights on any other Third Party. This Agreement is not intended to and will not be construed to give any Third Party any interest or rights (including any Third Party beneficiary rights) with respect to or in connection with any agreement or provision contained herein or contemplated hereby, other than, to the extent provided in Article 10 (Indemnification; Damages), the Indemnified Parties.

14.11 Non-exclusive Remedy. Except as expressly provided herein, the rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and each Party retains all remedies at law or in equity, including the Parties’ ability to receive legal damages or equitable relief, with respect to any breach of this Agreement.
