Article VII

FINANCIAL PROVISIONS

7.1 Initial License Payment. Calithera shall make a one-time payment to HPP of Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000) no later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date as upfront consideration for the license granted hereunder.

7.2 Research Program. On or prior to the fifth (5^th) Business Day after the end of the first Calendar Quarter following the Effective Date, HPP shall submit an invoice and Calithera shall pay HPP within twenty-five (25) days after receipt of such invoice, a Quarterly Research Fee for the then-ended first Calendar Quarter of the Research Program Term or portion thereof, as applicable. Thereafter, on the last day of each Calendar Quarter during the portion of the Research Program Term covered by the Research Plan, HPP shall submit an invoice, and Calithera shall pay HPP within twenty-five (25) days after receipt of such invoice, a Quarterly Research Fee for such Calendar Quarter of the Research Program Term. As used in this Agreement, “Quarterly Research Fee” means the amount determined by multiplying the FTE Rate by the number of FTE hours to be contributed by High Point pursuant to the Research Plan during the applicable Calendar Quarter or portion thereof of the Research Program Term. For purposes of clarity, the maximum amounts payable by Calithera to HPP for FTEs annually, if High Point provides the maximum of four (4) FTEs, is set forth in Schedule 7.2(a) and the minimum amounts payable by Calithera to HPP annually, if High Point provides the minimum of [***] FTEs, is set forth in Schedule 7.2(b). The minimum and maximum Quarterly Research Fee for each Calendar Quarter of the Research Program Term is set forth in Schedule 7.2(c).

7.3 Development, Manufacturing and Commercialization Costs. As between the Parties, Calithera shall be solely responsible for all costs of Developing, Manufacturing and Commercializing Licensed Products.

7.4 Event Milestone Payments. Calithera shall make the non-refundable, non-creditable payments to HPP set forth below not later than thirty (30) days after the earliest date on which the corresponding milestone event set forth below is first achieved by a Licensed Product for a disease or condition in the Field:

Milestone Event	Payment
(a)[***]	$[***]
(b)[***]	$[***]

Milestone Event	Payment
(c)[***]	$[***]
(d)[***]	(i) $[***]
	(ii) $[***]
	(iii) $[***]
(e)[***]	$[***]
(f)[***]	$[***]
(g)[***]	$[***]
(h)[***]	$[***]
(i)[***]	$[***]
(j)[***]	$[***]
(k)[***]	$[***]
(l)[***]	$[***]
(m)[***]	$[***]

For purposes of clarity, the milestone payments set forth in this Section 7.4 shall be paid only once, upon the first achievement of the applicable milestone event by the first Licensed Product to achieve such milestone event, except that, if Regulatory Approval is obtained for a first Licensed Product, and Calithera or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees subsequently commence Development of an additional Licensed Product, then the milestones payments for each of the milestone events listed in Section 7.4(f) ([***]) through (m) ([***]) above shall be payable at [***] of the corresponding milestone payment amount for the first subsequent Licensed Product that achieves such milestone event. For purposes of clarity, the maximum potential payment by Calithera under this Section 7.4 for each milestone shall be one hundred percent (100%) of each milestone payment set forth in (a) though (e) and [***] of each milestone payment set forth in (f) through (m) (i.e., one hundred percent (100%) for the first Licensed Product to achieve such milestone and an additional [***] for the second Licensed Product to achieve such milestone).

If, with respect to any particular Licensed Product, a later-listed milestone event in Section 7.4 (other than milestone (d) and each of the milestones (h) through (m), namely the [***] for additional Indication milestones) is achieved by such Licensed Product prior to the achievement by such Licensed Product of an earlier-listed milestone event in Section 7.4 (other than milestone (d) and each of the milestones (h) through (m), namely the [***] for additional Indication milestones), then the milestone payment for such earlier-listed milestone event for such Licensed Product shall be due and payable simultaneously with the payment for achievement of such subsequent milestone event, except that (x) [***] shall not be deemed to trigger any milestone payment [***], and (y) [***] shall not be deemed to trigger any other milestone payment.

If Calithera elects to cease Development of any Licensed Product, then the milestone payments previously made by Calithera under this Section 7.4 shall be fully creditable against the achievement of such milestone by a subsequent Licensed Product.

7.5 Sales Milestone Payments. In addition to all other amounts payable under this Agreement, Calithera shall make non-refundable, non-creditable milestone payments to HPP related to the marketing and sale of Licensed Products in the Territory, in the amounts provided below:

Milestone Event	Payment
(a) Aggregate Net Sales of a Licensed Product in the Territory of greater than $[***] in a Calendar Year	$[***]
(b) Aggregate Net Sales of a Licensed Product in the Territory of greater than $[***] in a Calendar Year	$[***]
(c) Aggregate Net Sales of a Licensed Product in the Territory of greater than $[***] in a Calendar Year	$[***]

For purposes of clarity, each of the milestone payments set forth in this Section 7.5 shall be paid only once and the maximum potential payment by Calithera under this Section 7.5 for each milestone shall be equal to one hundred percent (100%) of each milestone payment. A maximum of one milestone event specified in Section 7.5(a), (b), and (c) above will be payable by Calithera for any given Calendar Year. If two or more of such milestone events are achieved in different Calendar Quarters in the same Calendar Year, then Calithera shall pay each corresponding milestone payment within the time period specified in Section 7.7, but may credit any milestone payment previously made for such Calendar Year against the subsequent milestone payment for the same Calendar Year, such that, for such subsequent milestone event, Calithera shall only be obligated to pay the difference between the milestone payment for the subsequent event and the aggregate of all other sales milestone payments made during such Calendar Year corresponding to the earlier event(s), and the earlier milestone payments may become payable if and when achieved in a subsequent Calendar Year. If two or more of such milestone events are achieved in the same Calendar Quarter, Calithera shall only be obligated to pay the greater of the corresponding milestone payments for such Calendar Quarter and the earlier milestone payments may become payable if and when achieved in a subsequent Calendar Year.

For example, upon the first achievement of the milestone event set forth in Section 7.5(a), Calithera shall make the $[***] payment in accordance with Section 7.7. If the milestone event set forth in Section 7.5(b) is also achieved during the same Calendar Year, Calithera shall make the $[***] payment for that milestone event in accordance with Section 7.7, but Calithera may credit the $[***] it paid for achievement of the milestone event set forth in Section 7.5(a) against such amount resulting in a net payment of $[***]. In this example, each of the milestone events set forth in Sections 7.5(a) and (c) would become payable in subsequent Calendar Years if and when it is achieved.

7.6 Licensed Product Royalties. Calithera shall pay to HPP royalties on Net Sales of Licensed Products in the Territory as follows:

Calendar Year Net Sales of Licensed Products	Royalty Rate
Less than or equal to $[***]	[***]%
Greater than $[*] and less than or equal to $[*]	[***]%
Greater than $[*] and less than or equal to $[*]	[***]%
Greater than $[***]	[***]%

(a) Applicability of Royalty Rates to Net Sales in the Territory. Royalties under this Section 7.6 on aggregate Net Sales of Licensed Products in the Territory in a Calendar Year shall be paid at the rate applicable to the portion of Net Sales within each of the Net Sales levels during such Calendar Year. For example, if, during a Calendar Year, aggregate Net Sales of Licensed Products were equal to $[***], then the royalties payable by Calithera under this Section 7.6 would be calculated by adding (i) the royalties with respect to the first $[***] at the first-level percentage of [***] percent ([***]%) ($[***] × [***] = $[***]), and (ii) the royalties with respect to the next $[***] at the second-level percentage of [***] percent ([***]%) ($[***] × [***] = $[***]), for a total royalty of $[***].

(b) Royalty Term. Calithera’s royalty obligations to HPP under this Section 7.6 shall commence on a country-by-country and Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis upon the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country and shall expire on a country-by-country basis and Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis on the later of: (i) the expiration of Legal Exclusivity for such Licensed Product in such country (the “Exclusivity Royalty Term”) or (ii) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of the First Commercial Sale by Calithera or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees to a non-Sublicensee Third Party of such Licensed Product in such country (the “Royalty Term”). Upon expiration of the Royalty Term for a given Licensed Product in a given country, Calithera’s license under Section 2.1(a) shall become fully paid-up and perpetual with respect to Commercialization of such Licensed Product in such country.

(c) Royalty Adjustment for Generic Competition or Expiration of Exclusivity Royalty Term. If, with respect to a particular Licensed Product in a particular country in a particular Calendar Quarter, the Exclusivity Royalty Term has expired, then the royalties payable pursuant to this Section 7.6 may be reduced for such Calendar Quarter to the extent required to comply with applicable Law, if any, governing royalties payable on Licensed Products after expiration of all issued High Point Patent Rights Covering such Licensed Products, and provided, that (i) if the Generic Products have a market share during such Calendar Quarter of more than [***] and less than or equal to [***] of the aggregate market share of the corresponding Licensed Product(s) and Generic Product(s) (based on data provided by IMS International, or if such data is not available, such other reliable data source as reasonably determined by Calithera and agreed by HPP (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld)) as measured by unit sales, then the royalty rate pursuant to Section 7.6(a) for such Licensed Product(s) in such country shall be reduced for such Calendar Quarter to [***] of Net Sales, and (ii) if the Generic Product(s) have a market share of more than [***] (as calculated in the preceding proviso) during such Calendar Quarter, then [***] royalty shall be payable under this Section 7.6 on Net Sales during such Calendar Quarter of such Licensed Product(s) in such country.

(d) Third Party Licenses. If Calithera reasonably determines to obtain a patent or intellectual property license from a Third Party that is required or reasonably needed to make, sell or use a Licensed Product in the Field in a given country (“Third Party License”), then Calithera may offset [***] of any payments (including upfront payments, milestones and royalties) paid under such Third Party License to obtain such rights for such Licensed Product in such country against royalties payable to HPP hereunder in respect of Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country; provided, however, in no event shall such credit cause the royalties paid to HPP for any particular Calendar Quarter to be reduced to less than [***] of the amount that would otherwise be payable to HPP for such Calendar Quarter pursuant to Section 7.6 with respect to such Licensed Product in such country. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.6(d), [***] to the extent any Third Party Licenses relate to [***].

(e) Aggregate Royalty Reductions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.6, in no event shall the royalties otherwise payable under Section 7.6(a) with respect to any given Net Sales of a Licensed Product in a country in the Territory be reduced as a result of the royalty reduction provisions of Sections 7.6(c) and (d) to be less than [***].

7.7 Reports; Payments. Within [***] days after the end of each Calendar Quarter other than the last Calendar Quarter of Calithera’s fiscal year, and within [***] days after the end of the last Calendar Quarter of Calithera’s fiscal year, in which there are Net Sales giving rise to a payment obligation under Section 7.5 or 7.6, Calithera shall submit to HPP a report identifying, for each Licensed Product, the gross amount of sales of such Licensed Product for each country for such Calendar Quarter and the resulting royalties and the sales milestone payable to HPP, including a description of any deductions made from the gross amount of sales to calculate Net Sales and any royalty reductions made as a result of Sections 7.6(d) and 7.6(e). Concurrently with each such report, Calithera shall pay to HPP all royalties and sales milestones payable by it under Sections 7.5 and 7.6.

7.8 Books and Records; Audit Rights. Calithera shall keep complete and accurate records of the underlying revenue and expense data relating to the calculations of Net Sales and payments required by Sections 7.5 and 7.6. HPP shall have the right, once annually at its own expense, to have an independent, certified public accounting firm, selected by HPP and reasonably acceptable to Calithera, review any such records of Calithera in the location(s) where such records are maintained by Calithera upon reasonable notice (which shall be no less than thirty (30) days prior notice) and during regular business hours and under obligations of strict confidence, for the sole purpose of verifying the basis and accuracy of payments made under Sections 7.5 and 7.6 within the [***] period preceding the date of the request for review. The report of such accounting firm shall be limited to a certificate stating whether any report made or payment submitted by Calithera during such period is accurate or inaccurate and the actual amounts of Net Sales and royalties due for such period. Calithera shall receive a copy of each such report concurrently with receipt by HPP. Should such inspection lead to the discovery of a discrepancy to HPP’s detriment, Calithera shall pay within fifteen (15) Business Days after its receipt from the accounting firm of the certificate the amount of the discrepancy. HPP shall pay the full cost of the review unless the underpayment of royalties is greater than [***] of the amount due for the applicable period, in which case Calithera shall pay the reasonable cost charged by such accounting firm for such review. Any overpayment of royalties by Calithera revealed by an examination shall be fully creditable against future royalty payments.

7.9 Taxes. HPP shall pay any and all taxes levied on account of all payments it receives under this Agreement. If laws or regulations require that taxes be withheld, Calithera will (a) deduct those taxes from the remittable payment, (b) timely pay the taxes to the proper taxing authority, and (c) send proof of payment to HPP within thirty (30) days after receipt of confirmation of payment from the relevant taxing authority. Calithera will reasonably cooperate with HPP to obtain the benefit of any applicable tax law or treaty, including the pursuit of any refund or credit of such tax to HPP.

7.10 Payment Method and Currency Conversion. All payments to be made by Calithera to HPP shall be in immediately available funds via either a bank wire transfer, an ACH (automated clearing house) mechanism, or any other means of electronic funds transfer, at Calithera’s election, to HPP’s bank account at [***], or to such other bank account as HPP shall designate in a notice at least ten (10) days before the payment is due. HPP’s wiring instructions are set forth on Schedule 7.10. For the purposes of determining the amount of any sales milestone payment under Section 7.5 or royalties due for the relevant Calendar Quarter under Section 7.6, the amount of Net Sales in any foreign currency shall be converted into United States dollars in a manner consistent with Calithera’s normal practices used to prepare its audited financial reports; provided that such practices use a widely accepted source of published exchange rates. Upon request by HPP, Calithera shall disclose the source for the rates of exchange used.

7.11 Blocked Payments. If by reason of applicable Laws in any country in the Territory, it becomes impossible or illegal for Calithera or its Affiliates or Sublicensees to transfer, or have transferred on its behalf, milestones, royalties or other payments to HPP, Calithera shall promptly notify HPP of the conditions preventing such transfer and such milestones, royalties or other payments shall be deposited in local currency in the relevant country to the credit of HPP in a recognized banking institution designated by HPP or, if none is designated by HPP within a period of thirty (30) days, in a recognized banking institution selected by Calithera or its Affiliate or Sublicensee, as the case may be, and identified in a notice given to HPP. If so deposited in a foreign country, Calithera shall provide, or cause its Affiliate or Sublicensee to provide, reasonable cooperation to HPP so as to allow HPP to assume control over such deposit as promptly as practicable.

7.12 Late Payments. If a Party shall fail to make a timely payment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, interest shall accrue on the past due amount as follows:

(a) for amounts thirty (30) or fewer days past due, the rate applied shall be the thirty (30) day U.S. dollar LIBOR rate effective for the date that payment was due (as published in the Wall Street Journal), computed for the actual number of days the payment was past due; and

(b) for amounts greater than thirty (30) days past due, the rate applied shall be the thirty (30) day U.S. dollar LIBOR rate effective for the date that payment was due (as published in the Wall Street Journal) plus [***] per annum, computed for the actual number of days the payment was past due.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNERSHIP, PROTECTION
AND RELATED MATTERS

8.1 Ownership of Inventions.

(a) Sole Inventions. Each Party shall exclusively own all inventions made solely by such Party, its employees, agents and consultants (“Sole Inventions”). Sole Inventions made solely by Calithera, its employees, agents and consultants are referred to herein as “Calithera Sole Inventions”. Sole Inventions made solely by High Point, its employees, agents and consultants shall be solely owned by HPP and are referred to herein as “High Point Sole Inventions”.

(b) Joint Inventions. Calithera and HPP shall jointly own all inventions made jointly by employees, agents and consultants of Calithera, on the one hand, and employees, agents and consultants of High Point, on the other hand, on the basis of each of Calithera and HPP having one-half of an undivided interest in the whole (“Joint Inventions”). Each Party, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and permitted sublicensees, hereby assigns, agrees to assign or causes to be assigned sufficient of its and its Affiliates’ and its permitted sublicensees’ right, title and interest in, to and under any Joint Invention as necessary to effect the foregoing joint ownership allocation or any other assignment or license obligation under this Agreement with respect to such Joint Invention. HPP hereby acknowledges and agrees that all of its right, title and interest in, to and under Joint Inventions shall become part of the High Point Intellectual Property and subject to the license set forth in Section 2.1(a).

(c) Inventorship. For purposes of determining whether an invention is a Calithera Sole Invention, a High Point Sole Invention or a Joint Invention, and for purposes of determining inventions with respect to Program Patent Rights, questions of inventorship shall be resolved in accordance with United States patent Laws.

(d) Further Assurances. Each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and permitted sublicensees to, enter into assignment agreements pre-approved and reasonably acceptable to the other Party with Persons involved in the Research Program to obtain such automatic assignment of future inventions, and shall execute all documents necessary to effect such assignment.

8.2 Prosecution and Maintenance of Patent Rights.

(a) Prosecution of Calithera Patent Rights. Except as set forth in Section 12.5(e)(iv), Calithera shall have the sole right to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain the Calithera Patent Rights (including the Program Patent Rights) other than the Joint Patents.

(b) Prosecution of High Point Patent Rights. In accordance with this Section 8.2(b), unless Calithera and HPP otherwise agree in writing and for so long as Calithera retains exclusive rights hereunder, Calithera shall have the right, but not the obligation, and High Point shall reasonably cooperate, with respect to, the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of the High Point Patent Rights (other than the Joint Patents), using Xxxxx Xxxx LLP or other counsel of Calithera’s choice reasonably acceptable to HPP. The out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such High Point Patent Rights shall be [***]. Calithera shall notify HPP at least forty-five (45) days prior to the deadline for entering into national phase with respect to any PCT application included in such High Point Patent Rights and identify the countries or regions Calithera intends to enter. No later than fifteen (15) days after receiving notice from Calithera of its intent to enter into national phase, HPP shall provide Calithera with a list of any additional countries or regions (“Additional Territories”) in which HPP would like Calithera to file and Calithera shall consider such list in good faith. If Calithera elects to not enter the national phase in one or more Additional Territories, HPP may elect to enter the national phase in such Additional Territories [***], any such application or patent (the “Unelected Patent”) shall [***], and HPP shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Unelected Patent.

HPP shall have access to all documentation, filings and communications to or from the respective patent offices, at reasonable times and upon reasonable written notice (which notice may be in e-mail). Calithera shall keep HPP informed of the status of all pending patent applications that pertain to any Program Molecule or any Licensed Product. Calithera, its agents and attorneys shall consider in good faith comments of HPP regarding any aspect of such patent prosecutions. In the event that HPP believes that such patent strategy would have an unreasonable, adverse, economic effect on High Point’s rights under this Agreement (including inventorship or the value of any rights that HPP may obtain under Section 12.5), HPP may elect to submit the dispute to an independent Third Party patent counsel mutually agreed by Calithera and HPP, at HPP’s cost and expense. If such patent counsel determines that such patent strategy would have an unreasonable, adverse economic effect on High Point’s rights under this Agreement (including inventorship or the value of any rights that HPP may obtain under Section 12.5), then Calithera shall incorporate comments and adjust patent strategy as advised by such independent Third Party patent counsel, and Calithera shall [***]. If Calithera determines to abandon any High Point Patent Right (other than a Joint Patent) in all or any portion of the Territory (the “Abandoned Patent”), Calithera shall notify HPP of such determination, no later than thirty (30) days before any deadline for further action to avoid abandonment. If HPP wishes to continue to prosecute and maintain the Abandoned Patent, Calithera shall have the option to continue to prosecute and maintain the Abandoned Patent or allow HPP to have the sole right, but not the obligation, to continue to prosecute and maintain the Abandoned Patent [***], which for purposes of clarity, shall [***] set forth in this Agreement. If HPP is prosecuting and maintaining the Abandoned Patent and High Point determines to abandon such Abandoned Patent, the foregoing rights of HPP set forth in this Section 8.2(a) shall apply to Calithera mutatis mutandis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Calithera shall have the option to regain control of prosecution and maintenance of an Abandoned Patent at any time, subject to [***] and [***] for such Abandoned Patent. If either Calithera or HPP elects to maintain any Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent, the other shall reasonably cooperate to transfer such maintenance and prosecution thereof.

(c) Prosecution of Joint Patents. Calithera shall be responsible for obtaining, preparing, filing, prosecuting and maintaining Patent Rights, in appropriate countries in the Territory, including the countries reasonably requested by HPP, Covering Joint Inventions (“Joint Patents”). The out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred to obtain, prosecute and maintain Joint Patents shall be [***]. Calithera shall keep HPP informed of the status of all pending Joint Patents. In the event that HPP believes that such patent strategy would have an unreasonable, adverse, economic effect on High Point’s rights under this Agreement (including inventorship or the value of any rights that HPP may obtain under Section 12.5), HPP may elect to submit the dispute to an independent Third Party patent counsel mutually agreed by Calithera and HPP, at HPP’s cost and expense. If such patent counsel determines that such patent strategy would have an unreasonable, adverse economic effect on High Point’s rights under this Agreement (including inventorship or the value of any rights that HPP may obtain under Section 12.5), then Calithera shall incorporate comments and adjust patent strategy as advised by such independent Third Party patent counsel, and Calithera shall [***]. Calithera shall not abandon any Joint Patent without at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice to HPP. If Calithera determines to abandon any Joint Patent in all or any portion of the Territory (the “Abandoned Joint Patent”), Calithera shall notify HPP of such determination. If HPP wishes to continue to prosecute and maintain the Abandoned Joint Patent, Calithera shall have the option to continue to prosecute and maintain the Abandoned Joint Patent at its expense or allow HPP to have the sole right, but not the obligation, to continue to prosecute and maintain the Abandoned Joint Patent [***]. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Calithera shall have the option to regain control of prosecution and maintenance of an Abandoned Joint Patent at any time, subject to [***] and [***] for such Abandoned Joint Patent. If Calithera or HPP elects to continue to prosecute and maintain any Abandoned Joint Patent, the other shall reasonably cooperate to transfer prosecution and maintenance of such Abandoned Joint Patent.

(d) The Parties acknowledge that Calithera has the right, but not the obligation, at its sole discretion, to submit applicable High Point Patent Rights, Calithera Patent Rights and Joint Patents, and other relevant patent information, to all applicable Governmental Authorities for listing in the Orange Book or any similar listing or statutory or regulatory requirement in any country or regulatory jurisdiction outside the United States. High Point or its Affiliates, as applicable, shall provide, [***], all support reasonably necessary for Calithera to exercise its rights under this Section 8.2(d). “Orange Book” means the United States Food and Drug Administration publication titled, “Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations”, as it may be amended from time to time.

8.3 Third Party Infringement.

(a) Notice. Each Party shall promptly report in writing to the other Party during the Term any known or suspected (i) infringement of any of the High Point Patent Rights (including any Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent) or Joint Patents (including any Abandoned Joint Patent), or (ii) unauthorized use or misappropriation of any of the High Point Know-How or Know-How in Joint Inventions (an “Infringement Claim”) of which such Party becomes aware, and shall provide the other Party with all available evidence supporting such known or suspected infringement or unauthorized use.

(b) Initial Right to Enforce. Calithera shall have the sole right to enforce the Calithera Patent Rights (including the Program Patent Rights) other than the Joint Patents. Calithera shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action that it believes is reasonably required to protect (i.e., prevent or xxxxx actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of) or otherwise enforce the High Point Intellectual Property (including any Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent), and the Parties’ rights in Joint Inventions and Joint Patents (including any Abandoned Joint Patent). Any suit by Calithera shall be either in the name of HPP or its Affiliate, the name of Calithera or its Affiliate, or jointly by Calithera, Calithera’s Affiliate(s), HPP and HPP’s Affiliate(s), as may be required by the Law of the forum. For this purpose, High Point shall execute such legal papers and cooperate in the prosecution of such suit as may be reasonably requested by Calithera; provided that [***] in connection with such cooperation.

(c) Step-In Right. If Calithera does not initiate a suit or take other appropriate action that it has the initial right to initiate or take pursuant to Section 8.3(b) with respect to the High Point Patent Rights (including any Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent), Joint Patents (including any Abandoned Joint Patent), High Point Know-How or Know-How in Joint Inventions, against a Third Party as to which the Infringement Claim concerns a product for which a Third Party is seeking or has received marketing approval from the FDA or a corresponding foreign regulatory authority, HPP may provide Calithera with notice of HPP’s intent to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action. If HPP provides such notice and Calithera does not initiate a suit or take other appropriate action to protect the High Point Patent Rights (including any Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent), Joint Patents (including any Abandoned Joint Patent), High Point Know-How or Know-How in Joint Inventions within sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice from HPP, then HPP shall have the right to initiate a suit or take such other appropriate action that HPP believes is reasonably required to protect the High Point Patent Rights (including any Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent), Joint Patents (including any Abandoned Joint Patent), High Point Know-How or Know-How in Joint Inventions. Any suit by HPP shall be either in the name of HPP or its Affiliate, the name of Calithera or its Affiliate, or jointly by Calithera, Calithera’s Affiliate(s), HPP and HPP’s Affiliate(s), as may be required by the Law of the forum. For this purpose, Calithera shall execute such legal papers and cooperate in the prosecution of such suit as may be reasonably requested by HPP; provided that [***] in connection with such cooperation.

(d) Conduct of Certain Actions; Costs. The Party initiating suit shall have the sole and exclusive right to select counsel for any suit initiated by it pursuant to Section 8.3(b) or 8.3(c). The initiating Party shall assume and pay all of its own out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with any litigation or proceedings initiated by it pursuant to Sections 8.3(b) and 8.3(c), including the fees and expenses of the counsel selected by it. The other Party shall have the right to participate and be represented in any such suit by its own counsel at its own expense.

(e) Recoveries. In the event a Party assumes control over enforcing any Infringement Claim, the other Party (which, in the case of High Point, shall be HPP) shall be entitled to [***] any damages, settlements, accounts of profits, or other financial compensation recovered from a Third Party based upon any such Infringement Claim after deducting from the amount recovered the controlling Party’s actual out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred in pursuing such Infringement Claim, and the controlling Party may retain the balance.

8.4 Patent Invalidity Claim. Each of the Parties shall promptly notify the other in the event of any legal or administrative action by any Third Party against a High Point Patent Right (including an Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent) or Joint Patent (including an Abandoned Joint Patent) of which it becomes aware, including any nullity, revocation, reexamination, inter partes review, post-grant review, opposition, interference, derivation or compulsory license proceeding. Calithera shall have the sole right to defend against any such action involving a Calithera Patent Right or Program Patent Right. Calithera shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to defend against any such action involving a High Point Patent Right (including an Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent) or Joint Patent (including an Abandoned Joint Patent) using counsel of its choice and the costs of any such defense shall be [***]. High Point, upon request of Calithera, agrees to join in any such action and to cooperate reasonably with Calithera; provided that [***] in connection with such cooperation. If Calithera does not defend against any such action involving such Patent Right, then HPP shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend such action and any such defense shall be [***].

8.6 Patent Marking. Calithera shall comply with the patent marking statutes in each country in which the Licensed Product is sold by Calithera, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees.

8.7 Interpretation of Patent Judgments. If any claim relating to a patent under the High Point Patent Rights (including an Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent) or Joint Patent (including an Abandoned Joint Patent) becomes the subject of a judgment, decree or decision of a court, tribunal, or other authority of competent jurisdiction in any country, which judgment, decree, or decision is or becomes final (there being no further right of review) and adjudicates the validity, enforceability, scope, or infringement of the same, the construction of such claim in such judgment, decree or decision shall be followed thereafter in such country in determining whether a product is a Licensed Product hereunder, not only as to such claim but also as to all other claims in such country to which such construction reasonably applies. If at any time there are two or more conflicting final judgments, decrees, or decisions with respect to the same claim, the decision of the higher tribunal shall thereafter control, but if the tribunals be of equal rank, then the final judgment, decree, or decision more favorable to such claim shall control unless and until the majority of such tribunals of equal rank adopt or follow a less favorable final judgment, decree, or decision, in which event the latter shall control.

8.8 Certification under Drug Price Competition and Patent Restoration Act.

(a) Notice. If a Party becomes aware of any certification filed pursuant to 21 U.S. C. § 355(b)(2)(A) or 355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV) (or any amendment or successor statute thereto) claiming that any High Point Patent Rights (including an Abandoned Patent or Unelected Patent) Covering a Licensed Product in the Field or Joint Patents (including an Abandoned Joint Patent), are invalid or otherwise unenforceable, or that infringement will not arise from the manufacture, use, import or sale of a product by a Third Party (a “Paragraph IV Claim”), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing within five (5) Business Days after its receipt thereof.

(b) Control of Response. Calithera shall have the right, but not the obligation, to initiate patent infringement litigation for such Paragraph IV Claim, [***]. If Calithera elects not to assume control over enforcing any Paragraph IV Claim, Calithera shall notify HPP as soon as practicable but in any event not later than ten (10) days before the first action required to enforce or preserve such Paragraph IV Claim so that HPP may, but shall not be required to, assume sole control over enforcing such Paragraph IV Claim using counsel of its own choice. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate in the prosecution of any Paragraph IV Claim, and share any compensation recovered as a result of such prosecution, as set forth in Section 8.3(e) above; provided that [***] in connection with such cooperation.

Each Party will be responsible for a breach of this ARTICLE IX by its Agents. For clarity, Calithera may disclose Confidential Information of High Point (a) to Governmental Authorities (i) to the extent desirable to obtain or maintain INDs or Regulatory Approvals for any Program Molecule or Licensed Product within the Territory and (ii) in order to respond to inquiries, requests or investigations by Governmental Authorities; (b) to outside consultants, scientific advisory boards, managed care organizations, and non-clinical and clinical investigators to the extent necessary to Develop or Commercialize any Program Molecule or Licensed Product; and (c) to the extent desirable to obtain Program Patent Rights to protect, or to Develop or Commercialize, any Program Molecule or Licensed Product; provided that Calithera shall obtain the same confidentiality obligations from such Third Parties as it obtains with respect to its own similar types of confidential information.

9.2 Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all trade secrets or other proprietary information, including any proprietary data and materials (whether or not patentable or protectable as a trade secret), regarding a Party’s or its licensor’s technology, products, business, financial status or prospects or objectives regarding the Licensed Products, which is disclosed by a Party to the other Party. All information disclosed prior to the Effective Date by HPP to Calithera pursuant to the confidentiality agreement between Calithera and HPP dated as of June 24, 2014, the confidentiality agreement between Calithera and HPP dated as of August 12, 2014, as amended on September 30, 2014, or the material transfer agreements between Calithera and HPP, dated September 30, 2014 and November 5, 2014 (collectively, the “Confidentiality Agreements”) shall be deemed “Confidential Information” of High Point and all information disclosed prior to the Effective Date by Calithera to High Point pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreements and all results from the Research Program shall be deemed “Confidential Information” of Calithera. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be excluded from the foregoing definition of Confidential Information any of the foregoing that:

(a) either before or after the date of the disclosure to the receiving Party is lawfully disclosed to the receiving Party by Third Parties without any violation of any obligation to the other Party; or

(b) either before or after the date of the disclosure to the receiving Party, becomes published or generally known to the public through no fault or omission on the part of the receiving Party or its Agents; or

(c) is independently developed by or for the receiving Party without reference to or reliance upon the Confidential Information as demonstrated by contemporaneous written records of the receiving Party; or

(d) is required to be disclosed by the receiving Party to comply with applicable Laws, to defend or prosecute litigation or to comply with governmental regulations or the regulations or requirements of any stock exchange or securities commission, provided that the receiving Party promptly provides prior notice of such disclosure to the other Party and uses reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize the degree of such disclosure.

9.3 Publication Rights.

(a) High Point shall not, and shall cause its controlled (as such word is defined in Section 1.2) Affiliates and their respective employees, consultants, contractors, licensees and agents not to, publish or publicly present any results of any preclinical or clinical studies with respect to any Program Molecule or Licensed Product without Calithera’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Calithera recognizes the importance of each Party’s ability to make publications and in the spirit of scientific advancement, in the event High Point wishes to publish or publicly present such results, High Point shall submit the proposed publication to the Development Forum sufficiently in advance of the proposed publication date to allow Calithera to review and comment on the draft. Calithera shall advise the Development Forum as to the timing of the proposed comments within thirty (30) days of submission to the Development Forum.

(b) During the Research Term, Calithera shall provide to High Point the opportunity to review any proposed abstracts, manuscripts or summaries of presentations that cover any Program Molecule or Licensed Product as early as reasonably practicable following Calithera’s publication of such proposed abstract, manuscript or summary for publication or presentation.

9.4 Restrictions on Material Non-Public Information. Each Party acknowledges that it is aware that the United States securities laws prohibit certain Persons who have received material, non-public information with respect to a public company from purchasing or selling securities of that public company and from communicating such information to any other Person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such Person is likely to purchase or sell such securities. Each Party acknowledges that it is familiar with the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “1934 Act”); and agrees that it will neither use, nor cause or permit any person to use, any Confidential Information in contravention of the 1934 Act, including Rule l0b-5 and Rule 14e-3 thereunder, or other applicable securities laws.

Calithera shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the High Point Parties (as hereinafter defined) from and against any and all Losses incurred, suffered or sustained by any of the High Point Parties or to which any of the High Point Parties becomes subject, arising out of, relating to or resulting from any Third Party claim, action, suit, proceeding, liability or obligation (collectively, “Third Party Claims”) arising out of, relating to or resulting from:

(a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Calithera in this Agreement; or

(b) the Development, Manufacture, use or Commercialization of a Program Molecule or Licensed Product by Calithera, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, including all Third Party Claims involving (A) death or bodily injury caused or allegedly caused by the use of a Program Molecule or Licensed Product, and even if a Program Molecule or Licensed Product is altered for use for a purpose not intended or (B) any actual or alleged infringement of any trademark, Patent Right or other intellectual property right, or misappropriation of any trade secret, of any Third Party; or

(c) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Calithera Parties (as hereinafter defined) in connection with Calithera’s performance of this Agreement.

For purposes of this ARTICLE XI, “High Point Parties” means High Point, its Affiliates and their respective licensors, agents, directors, officers, employees and shareholders.

The indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 11.1 shall not apply to the extent that any Loss is the result of a breach of this Agreement by High Point or, with respect to any indemnitee, the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnitee.

11.2 Indemnification in Favor of Calithera. High Point shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Calithera Parties from and against any and all Losses incurred, suffered or sustained by any of the Calithera Parties or to which any of the Calithera Parties becomes subject, arising out of, relating to or resulting from any Third Party Claim arising out of, relating to or resulting from:

The indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 11.2 shall not apply to the extent that any Loss is the result of a breach of this Agreement by Calithera or, with respect to any indemnitee, the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnitee.

11.3 General Indemnification Procedures.

(a) A Person seeking indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XI (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt notice to the Party from whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the commencement or assertion of any Third Party Claim (which in no event includes any claim by any Calithera Party or any High Point Party) in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, shall give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect to any indemnified matter as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, and shall not make any admission concerning any Third Party Claim, unless such admission is required by applicable Law or legal process, including in response to questions presented in depositions or interrogatories. Any admission made by the Indemnified Party or the failure to give such notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder only to the extent that the ability of the Indemnifying Party to defend such Third Party Claim is prejudiced thereby (and no admission required by applicable Law or legal process shall be deemed to result in prejudice). The Indemnifying Party shall assume and conduct the defense of such Third Party Claim, with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. Subject to the initial and continuing satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this ARTICLE XI, the Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such Third Party Claim, including settlement negotiations and any legal proceedings. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 11.3, the Indemnified Party may defend the Third Party Claim. If both Parties are Indemnifying Parties with respect to the same Third Party Claim, the Parties shall determine by mutual agreement, within twenty (20) days following their receipt of notice of commencement or assertion of such Third Party Claim (or such lesser period of time as may be required to respond properly to such claim), which Party shall assume the lead role in the defense thereof. Should the Indemnifying Parties be unable to mutually agree on which of them shall assume the lead role in the defense of such Third Party Claim, both Indemnifying Parties shall be entitled to participate in such defense through counsel of their respective choosing.

(b) Any Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party not managing the defense of a Third Party Claim shall have the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense (subject to the immediately succeeding sentence), the defense. The Indemnifying Party managing the defense shall not be liable for any litigation cost or expense incurred, without its consent, by the Indemnified Party (or an Indemnifying Party not managing the defense) where the action or proceeding is under the control of such Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party managing the defense fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party managing the defense will be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment against an Indemnified Party arising from any such Third Party Claim to the extent such Third Party Claim involves equitable or other non-monetary relief from the Indemnified Party. No Party shall, without the prior written consent of the other Party or the Indemnified Party, enter into any compromise or settlement that commits the other Party or the Indemnified Party to take, or to forbear to take, any action.

(d) The Parties shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

(e) Any indemnification hereunder shall be made net of any insurance proceeds actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from unaffiliated Third Parties; provided, however, that if, following the payment to the Indemnified Party of any amount under this ARTICLE XI, such Indemnified Party recovers any such insurance proceeds in respect of the claim for which such indemnification payment was made, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds (but not exceeding the amount of such net indemnification payment) to the Indemnifying Party.

(f) The Parties agree and acknowledge that the provisions of this ARTICLE XI represent the Indemnified Party’s exclusive recourse with respect to any Losses for which indemnification is provided to the Indemnified Party under this ARTICLE XI.

(c) For purposes of clarity, a termination of the Research Program shall not constitute a termination of the Agreement, unless explicitly stated in such termination notice.

12.7 Unblock License. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement (other than a termination by High Point pursuant to Section 12.3 or 12.4), High Point shall and hereby does grant to Calithera a perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid-up, royalty-free, worldwide, non-exclusive license, with the right to grant sublicenses under multiple tiers, under the High Point Sole Inventions conceived under the Research Program, provided that if HPP exercises its option to obtain the license set forth in Section 12.5(e)(ii), Calithera shall have no rights under the license granted under this Section 12.7 to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale or import Program Molecules or Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory.

12.8 Effect of Termination and Expiration; Accrued Rights and Obligations.

Calithera Biosciences Gains Exclusive, Worldwide License to TransTech Pharma’s Hexokinase II Inhibitor Program

South San Francisco, Calif., March 05, 2015 --(GLOBE NEWSWIRE)-- Calithera Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:CALA), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing novel small molecule drugs directed against tumor metabolism and tumor immunology targets for the treatment of cancer, announced today an exclusive global license agreement with TransTech Pharma, a clinical stage pharmaceutical company, granting Calithera exclusive world-wide rights to research, develop and commercialize TransTech’s portfolio of hexokinase II inhibitors. Hexokinase II is the first and rate-limiting enzyme in the pathway that enables cancer cells to convert glucose to energy and building blocks that feed cancer cell growth. Under the terms of the agreement, Calithera will obtain exclusive, worldwide rights to TransTech’s hexokinase II inhibitors for research, development and commercialization. TransTech will receive an upfront payment and will be eligible to receive future development and commercialization milestones as well as royalties on sales of approved products.

“TransTech’s hexokinase II inhibitor program will further expand Calithera’s portfolio of pre-clinical programs and solidify our leadership in the area of tumor metabolism drug research and development as we are now able to target two essential nutrients that cancer cells rely on for growth and survival: glutamine and glucose,” said Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx, CEO, Calithera Biosciences. “We believe we can apply our expertise to rapidly advance TransTech’s potent small-molecule hexokinase II inhibitors into the clinic to become our third potential first-in-class therapy for cancer patients.”

About Tumor Metabolism and Hexokinase II Inhibitors

The field of tumor metabolism seeks to exploit the unique ways in which cancer cells take up and utilize nutrients in order to grow and proliferate. Cancer cells have altered cellular metabolic pathways to acquire and utilize these nutrients and redirect them to provide the necessary building blocks for growth. When these metabolic pathways are blocked, cancer cells are essentially starved of critical nutrients and stop growing or die, whereas normal cells are largely unaffected.

Most cancer cells have increased uptake of the sugar glucose relative to surrounding normal cells. This phenomenon forms the basis for the widely used tumor imaging procedure known as ¹⁸F-2-deoxyglucose (FDG)/PET. Tumors take up more FDG, a radioactive glucose analog, than the surrounding normal tissue and this differential can be visualized with PET imaging. Not only do tumors take up more glucose, but they also utilize the nutrient in a unique way. Tumors convert glucose into lactic acid in a process known as aerobic glycolysis or the “Warburg effect”, a route rarely utilized in normal cells. This unique uptake and processing of glucose by tumors relative to normal tissue creates an opportunity to selectively target tumors by cutting off their ability to use this fuel.

In many cancers, hexokinase II is over expressed and has been linked to more aggressive and invasive tumors. Pre-clinical studies in mice have confirmed that the reduction of hexokinase II activity through genetic deactivation (siRNA knockdown studies) results in a significant reduction of tumor growth. The hexokinase inhibitors in-licensed from TransTech may provide an opportunity to inhibit the unique way cancer cells utilize glucose, and the overall Warburg effect, which could result in new treatments for cancer.

TransTech Pharma and Calithera Biosciences Enter Into Worldwide Licensing

Agreement for Hexokinase II Inhibitor Program

High Point, NC, March 05, 2015 - TransTech Pharma, LLC today announced a global licensing agreement granting Calithera Biosciences, Inc. exclusive world-wide rights to research, develop and commercialize TransTech’s portfolio of hexokinase II inhibitors. TransTech will receive an upfront payment and will be eligible to receive future development and commercialization milestones as well as royalties on sales of approved products.

Hexokinase II is the first enzyme in the pathway that enables cancer cells to convert glucose to energy and building blocks required for cancer cell growth. The Warburg effect describes the particular reliance of cancer cells on glycolysis for energy and tumor cell survival. FDG-PET imaging of cancer and diagnosis in the clinic exploits the Warburg effect by detection of increased uptake of a glucose analogue by cancer cells. Increased glycolysis has been posited to be an essential part of carcinogenesis, conferring a significant growth advantage as well as promoting typical tumor progression making it a new promising modality for treatment of cancer.

“We are excited to be partnering our hexokinase II program with Calithera. We selected Calithera because of their specific expertise and focus in tumor metabolism research and development and look forward to our continued partnership. This portfolio of hexokinase II inhibitors was discovered using our Translational Technology® which has also been utilized in the discovery of our other clinical and preclinical programs,” said Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, President and CFO, TransTech Pharma, LLC.
