Common use of Strategy Clause in Contracts

Strategy. The strategy is to complete a minimal additional amount of preclinical safety in parallel with the clinical development program. [**]. The filing will be based on a [**]. We note that the current phase 2 study has no control group, and can give only general information about safety and tolerability, and no real information on efficacy in humans. For this reason the [**] will be designed with a ‘vanguard’ cohort of approximately [**] patients. Once the vanguard has completed 6 months of follow up, and interim analysis will be performed, assessing the study for 1) safety, 2) efficacy or futility and 3) performance of the endpoint. Specific, detailed and comprehensive criteria will be established to allow for stopping or continuation, or adjustments in sample size or inclusion criteria. The rules for the interim analysis will be agreed with regulatory authorities in advance of any unblinding, and appropriate adjustments will be made for type 1 error. Following the interim analysis the number of participating centers will be increased to speed enrollment, and the study will continue to completion. Endpoint and sample size We will define [**] and then power the study to show at least a [**] with BL-1040 compared to placebo. This difference is clinically meaningful. To give maximum power we want to define an endpoint that has a [**] after treatment, which would be reduced to [**]. We will design a [**] that ensures an event rate that is [**] in the control arm. Failure could include [**] Any one of these events and the patient is [**]; none of these events and the patient is considered [**]. It is possible that other clinically relevant events may be added to the composite. Next we will estimate how often each of these events will happen. [**].

SCHEDULE 3.7 PRELIMINARY COMMERCIALIZATION PLAN Preface: This document is prepared for the management of BioLineRx as a basis for discussion only, and is intended to be indicative of Ikaria’s current intent with respect to global commercialization of BL-1040. Actual launch plans will continue to evolve over time, in accordance with the evolution of market dynamics, the global environment for cardiovascular drugs and devices, and the emerging product profile of BL-1040.
