On a Collaboration Program-by-Collaboration Program basis, in the event of any exercise by Arcturus of its opt-out right under Section 9.6.3 with respect to sharing of Development Costs ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ Clinical Trials for a Collaboration Program, Arcturus’ share in Commercialization Expenses and Product Revenue from such Collaboration Program under Section 9.5 and Section 9.7.1 shall be proportionally reduced according to the formula set out below, and Providence’s share in such Commercialization Expenses and Product Revenue shall be correspondingly increased; provided that in no case shall Arcturus’ share of Commercialization Expenses and Product Revenue from any Collaboration Program be adjusted below fifteen percent (15%):


Arcturus’ share of Product Revenue	==	(25% x A) + B
Arcturus’ share of Product Revenue	==	A + C

Where:


A = all Development costs through to completion of Phase 2 Clinical Trials (for the avoidance of doubt, not including any ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇)
B = Arcturus’ paid contribution to Development Costs ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ Clinical Trials to date
C = total Shared Development Costs Post-Phase 2 Clinical Trials paid by both Parties to date

9.7.3Payment of Shared Product Revenue. Within forty-five (45) days after the end of each quarter in which Product Revenue is received by Providence: (a) Providence shall provide Arcturus with a statement detailing its Product Revenue for each Collaboration Program for such quarter on a Product-by-Product basis, which statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculation of Product Revenue (including its components) with respect to such Collaboration Program; and (b) Subject to Section 9.7.2, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the statement of Product Revenue, Providence shall make payments to Arcturus of its share of Product Revenue so that each shall share Product Revenue according to the provisions set forth above, as applicable, for such quarter for each Collaboration Program.

9.8No Other Compensation. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither Party will be obligated to pay any additional fees, milestone payments, royalties or other payments of any kind to the other hereunder.

9.9Method of Payment. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement or agreed by the Parties, all payments due by one Party under this Agreement shall be paid in U.S. Dollars by wire transfer or electronic funds transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the receiving Party.

9.10Currency Conversion. In the case of Product Revenue, including Net Sales outside the United States, payments received by Providence or its Affiliate will be expressed in the U.S. Dollar equivalent calculated on a quarterly basis in the currency of the non‑United States country and converted to their U.S. Dollar equivalent using the average rate of exchange over the applicable calendar quarter to which the sales relate, in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards and the then current standard methods of Providence or the applicable Sublicensee, to the extent reasonable and consistently applied; provided, however, that if, at such time, Providence does not use a rate for converting into U.S. Dollar equivalents that is maintained in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards, then Providence shall use a rate of exchange which corresponds to the rate of exchange for such currency reported in The Wall Street Journal, Internet U.S. Edition at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇, as of the last day of the applicable reporting period (or, if unavailable on such date, the first date thereafter on which such rate is available). Providence will inform Arcturus as to the specific exchange rate translation methodology used for a particular country or countries. If at any time legal restrictions prevent the prompt remittance of any Product Revenue share in any jurisdiction, Providence may notify Arcturus and make such payments by depositing the amount thereof in local currency in a bank account or other depository in such country in the name of the Arcturus or its designee, and Providence shall have no further obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto.

9.11Late Payments. In the event that any payment due hereunder is not made when due, the payment shall accrue interest beginning on the day following the due date thereof, calculated at the annual rate equal to the prime interest rate quoted by The Wall Street Journal, Internet U.S. Edition at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇ on the date said payment is due, the interest being compounded on the last day of each calendar quarter; provided, however, that in no event shall said annual interest rate exceed the maximum rate permitted by Law. Each such payment when made shall be accompanied by all interest so accrued.

9.12Records and Audits. Providence will keep complete and accurate records of the underlying revenue and expense data relating to the calculations of Product Revenue and Shared D&C Costs generated in the then current calendar year and during the preceding three (3) calendar years. Arcturus will keep complete and accurate records of the underlying expense data relating to any amounts payable by Providence hereunder for Arcturus Services during the then current calendar year and during the preceding three (3) calendar years. Arcturus or Providence (the “Auditing Party”) will have the right, once annually at its own expense, to have a nationally recognized, independent, certified public accounting firm, selected by it and subject to the other Party’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), review any such records of the other Party and their Affiliates (the “Audited Party”) in the location(s) where such records are maintained by the Audited Party upon reasonable written notice (which shall be no less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice) and during regular business hours and under obligations of strict confidence, for the sole purpose of verifying the basis and accuracy of the any payments due hereunder within the thirty-six (36) month period preceding the date of the request for review. No calendar year will be subject to audit under this Section 9.12 more than once. The Audited Party will receive a copy of each such report concurrently with receipt by the Auditing Party. Should such inspection lead to the discovery of a discrepancy to the Auditing Party’s detriment, the Audited Party will, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such report from the accounting firm, pay any undisputed amount of the discrepancy together with interest at the rate set forth in Section 9.11. The Auditing Party will pay the full cost of the review unless

the underpayment of amounts due to the Auditing Party is greater than five percent (5%) of the amount due for the entire period being examined, in which case the Audited Party will pay the cost charged by such accounting firm for such review. Should the audit lead to the discovery of a discrepancy to the Audited Party’s detriment, the Audited Party may credit the amount of the discrepancy, without interest, against future payments payable to the Auditing Party under this Agreement, and if there are no such payments payable, then the Auditing Party shall pay to the Audited Party the amount of the discrepancy, without interest, within forty-five (45) days of the Auditing Party’s receipt of the report.

9.13Taxes.

9.13.1Withholding. In the event that any Law requires either Party to withhold taxes with respect to any payment to be paid by the paying Party to the receiving Party pursuant to this Agreement, the paying Party will notify the receiving Party of such withholding requirement prior to making the payment to the receiving Party and provide such assistance to the receiving Party, including the provision of such standard documentation as may be required by a tax authority, as may be reasonably necessary in the receiving Party’s efforts to claim an exemption from or reduction of such taxes. The paying Party will, in accordance with such Law, withhold taxes from the amount due, remit such taxes to the appropriate tax authority, and furnish the receiving Party with proof of payment of such taxes within thirty (30) days following the payment. If taxes are paid to a tax authority, the paying Party shall provide reasonable assistance to the receiving Party to obtain a refund of taxes withheld or obtain a credit with respect to taxes paid.

9.13.2VAT. All payments paid by the paying Party to the receiving Party pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid exclusive of any value-added, goods or services, or sales tax (which, if applicable, shall be payable by the paying Party upon receipt of a valid invoice). If Party receiving payment determines that it is required to report any such tax, the paying Party shall promptly provide the receiving Party with applicable receipts and other documentation necessary or appropriate for such report. For clarity, this Section 9.13.2 is not intended to limit Providence’s right to deduct value-added taxes in determining Net Sales.

9.14Arcturus Opportunity to Participate in Providence Financings. During the Term, Providence will advise Arcturus of, and Arcturus will be given the opportunity to participate in, issuances of equity or debt securities of Providence in connection with a financing or series of financings by Providence, such participation by Arcturus to be up to 49% of any such offering .

9.15Arcturus Right to Appoint Director. During the Term and so long as Providence is a privately held company Arcturus shall have the right (the “Arcturus Appointment Right”) to appoint one representative designated by Arcturus from time to time and acceptable to Providence, acting reasonably, to serve as a member of Providence’s Board of Directors (the “Arcturus Representative”), exercisable upon written notice thereof to Providence, and in such capacity, the Arcturus Representative shall be entitled to receive, and Providence shall provide to the Arcturus Representative, all notices, minutes, consents and other materials, financial or otherwise, which Providence provides to other members of its Board of Directors.

If Providence fails to bring any such action or proceeding within (A) 120 days following the notice of alleged infringement or (B) 15 days before the time limit, if any, set forth in the appropriate

laws and regulations for the filing of such actions, whichever comes first, then Arcturus shall have the right to bring and control any such action at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice, and Providence shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice.

(b)Right to Enforce Other Infringements.

settlement, compromise or settlement by the Indemnifying Party shall be binding on an Indemnified Party without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, unless such settlement or compromise (a) fully releases the Indemnified Party without any liability, loss, cost or obligation, and (b) admits no liability, wrongdoing or other admission against interest on the part of the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Parties cannot agree as to the application of Sections 12.1.1 and 12.1.2 to any Loss or Third Party Claim, the Parties may conduct separate defenses of such Third Party Claim. In such case, each Party further reserves the right to claim indemnity from the other in accordance with Sections 12.1.1 and 12.1.2 upon resolution of such underlying Third Party Claim.

12.2Insurance. Each of the Parties will, at their own respective expense (and not subject to cost sharing hereunder) procure and maintain during the Term, insurance policies in commercially reasonable amounts in light of their obligations hereunder and consistent with the normal business practices of prudent biopharmaceutical companies of similar size and scope (or reasonable self-insurance sufficient to provide materially the same level and type of protection). Such insurance will not create a limit to or increase either Party’s liability hereunder. Each Party shall provide the other with written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the cancellation, non‑renewal or material change in such insurance or self‑insurance which materially adversely affects the rights of the other Party hereunder.

ARTICLE 13

CONFIDENTIALITY

13.1Confidential Information.

13.1.1Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” of a Party shall mean, subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 13.1.3, any confidential or proprietary information, including all Know-How, that is disclosed or made available by or on behalf of such Party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) or any of the Receiving Party’s or its Affiliates’ Representatives in connection with this Agreement, whether in writing, orally, visually or otherwise, including, without limitation, all “Confidential Information” (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) disclosed or made available by or on behalf of such Party to the other Party or any of its Representatives pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that: (a) all Arcturus Platform Improvements shall be considered the Confidential Information of Arcturus for purposes of this Agreement, and Arcturus and Providence shall be considered the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party, respectively, with respect thereto; and (b) all Joint Inventions shall be considered the Confidential Information of both Parties for purposes of this Agreement, and each Party shall be considered both a Disclosing Party and a Receiving Party with respect thereto.

13.1.2Restrictions. Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement, during the Term and for seven (7) years thereafter (or, in the case of any trade secrets, for so long as they remain secret), Receiving Party will keep all Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in confidence and will not use any of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information for any purpose other than as expressly permitted by this Agreement. Receiving

Party shall use at least the same standard of care as it uses to protect proprietary or confidential information of its own (but in no event less than reasonable care) to ensure that its and its Affiliates’ Representatives do not disclose or make any unauthorized use of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. Receiving Party shall promptly notify Disclosing Party upon discovery of any loss, unauthorized use or unauthorized disclosure of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. Receiving Party will use diligent efforts to cause its Affiliates, and its and their respective Representatives, to comply with this Article 13. The failure of any Representative of Receiving Party or its Affiliates to comply with the terms and conditions of this Article 13 shall be considered a breach of this Agreement by Receiving Party.

13.1.3Exceptions. Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information shall not include information that Receiving Party can demonstrate by competent evidence: (a) was known to Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates prior to the time of disclosure (provided that the exception in this clause (a) shall not apply to Arcturus Platform Improvements or Joint Inventions); (b) is or becomes public knowledge through no breach of this Agreement by Receiving Party, any of its Affiliates or any of its or their respective Representatives; (c) is obtained by Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates, without restriction on disclosure, from a Third Party under no obligation of confidentiality to Disclosing Party; or (d) has been independently developed by Representatives of Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates without the use of, reference to, or reliance upon Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and without any breach of this Agreement, as evidenced by Receiving Party’s contemporaneously-maintained written records.

13.1.4Permitted Disclosures. Receiving Party may disclose Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as expressly permitted by this Agreement (including as reasonably necessary for the Receiving Party’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement), or to the extent (and only to the extent) such disclosure is reasonably necessary in the following instances:

(a)complying with applicable court orders, applicable laws, rules or regulations, or the listing rules of any exchange on which the Receiving Party’s or its Affiliate’s securities are traded;

(b)prosecuting or defending litigation as permitted by this Agreement;

(c)enforcing Receiving Party’s rights under this Agreement;

(d)filing or prosecuting Patent Rights as permitted by this Agreement;

(e)disclosure in Regulatory Submissions with respect to a Collaboration Compound or Product that Receiving Party has the right to make under this Agreement;

(f)disclosure to the Receiving Party’s Affiliates, to actual and potential licensees and sublicensees, and to the Receiving Party’s and its Affiliates’ Representatives who have a need to know such information in order for the Receiving Party to exercise its rights or fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, provided, in each case, that any

such Affiliate, actual or potential licensee or sublicensee or Representative agrees to be bound by terms of confidentiality and non-use at least as stringent as those set forth in this Article 13; and

(g)disclosure to Third Parties in connection with due diligence or similar investigations by such Third Parties, and disclosure to potential Third-Party investors in confidential financing documents, provided, in each case, that any such Third Party agrees to be bound by reasonable obligations of confidentiality and non-use.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Receiving Party is required to make a disclosure of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to Section 13.1.4(a) or Section 13.1.4(b), Receiving Party will, where reasonably possible, notify Disclosing Party of Receiving Party’s intent to make any disclosure pursuant thereto sufficiently prior to making such disclosure so as to allow Disclosing Party adequate time to take whatever action it may deem appropriate to protect the confidentiality of the information to be disclosed, and, at Disclosing Party’s request and expense, Receiving Party will cooperate with Disclosing Party’s efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information.

13.2Confidentiality of Terms of Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall be considered the Confidential Information of both Parties (i.e., each Party shall be considered both the Disclosing Party and the Receiving with respect thereto) for purposes of this Article 13.

13.3Publicity.

13.3.1Press Releases. It is acknowledged that each Party may desire or be required to issue subsequent press releases relating to this Agreement or activities hereunder. The Parties agree to consult with each other reasonably and in good faith with respect to the text and timing of subsequent press releases prior to the issuance thereof, provided that a Party may not withhold consent to such releases that the other Party may determine, based on advice of counsel, are reasonably necessary to comply with applicable Laws, including disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or with the requirements of any stock exchange on which securities issued by a Party or its Affiliates are traded. In the event of a required public announcement, to the extent there is sufficient time while still being able to comply with applicable Laws, including disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or with the requirements of any stock exchange on which securities issued by a Party or its Affiliates are traded, the Party making such announcement shall provide the other Party with a copy of the proposed text of such announcement sufficiently in advance of the scheduled release to afford such other Party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the proposed text. Each Party may make public statements regarding this Agreement in response to questions by the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences or financial analyst calls, or issue press releases, so long as the contents of any such public statement or press release are contained in a prior public disclosure or public statement approved by the other Party pursuant to this Section 13.3.1 or permitted by Section 13.1.4 and do not reveal non‑public information about the other Party.

13.3.2Filing of this Agreement. The Parties shall coordinate in advance with each other in connection with the filing of this Agreement (including redaction of certain provisions of this Agreement) with any securities authority or with any stock exchange on which

securities issued by a Party or its Affiliate are traded, and each Party will use reasonable efforts to seek and obtain confidential treatment for the terms proposed to be redacted; provided that each Party will ultimately retain control over what terms are disclosed to any securities authority or stock exchange, as the case may be, to the extent such Party determines, on the advice of legal counsel, that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with applicable Laws, including disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or with the requirements of any stock exchange on which securities issued by a Party or its Affiliates are traded, and provided further that the Parties will use their reasonable efforts to file redacted versions with any governing bodies which are consistent with redacted versions previously filed with any other governing bodies.

13.4Publications.

13.4.1Publication. For purposes of this Section 13.4, the terms “publish” and “scientific presentation” (including variations such as “publication” and “presentation”) shall mean any public disclosure in the nature of a published paper, article, manuscript, report, poster, internet posting, presentation slides, abstract, outline, video, instructional material, presentation, or the like, in printed, electronic, or oral form.

13.4.2Publication of Results. On a Licensed Collaboration Tumor Type-by-Licensed Collaboration Tumor Type basis and for so long as the license granted to Providence under Section 4.1 for such Collaboration Tumor Type remains in effect, Providence shall have the sole right to publish and make scientific presentations with respect to the results of Development and Commercialization activities, including clinical trials, of Collaboration Compounds for such Licensed Collaboration Tumor Type and Products containing such Collaboration Compounds. Arcturus shall have the right to review and comment on any material proposed for publication by Providence (such as by oral presentation, manuscript or abstract) that includes results of Development of any such Collaboration Compound or Product. Providence shall deliver to Arcturus a copy of any proposed written publication or outline of presentation to be made by Providence at least thirty (30) days in advance of submission for publication or presentation (or, where a copy of such publication or presentation is not available at such time, a draft or outline of such publication or a description of such presentation), and Arcturus will have the right to: (i) require a delay in submission of not more than sixty (60) days to enable patent applications protecting any Collaboration Compound or Product; and (ii) require Providence to delete any disclosure of Arcturus’ Confidential Information from any such proposed publication or presentation prior to submission for publication or presentation.

ARTICLE 14

TERM & TERMINATION

14.1Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date, and unless terminated earlier as provided in this Article 14, shall continue in full force and effect until either, as applicable:

14.1.1such time as there is no longer any Collaboration Compound and/or Product being Developed or Commercialized hereunder by Providence, its Affiliates and/or Sublicensees.

14.2Termination for Breach.

14.2.1Subject to Section 14.2.2, each Party shall have the right, in the event of material breach of this Agreement by the other Party, to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other Party if such other Party is in material breach of this Agreement and has not cured such breach within ninety (90) days after notice from the terminating Party requesting cure of the breach. Any such termination shall become effective at the end of such 90-day period unless the breaching Party has cured such breach prior to the end of such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any such uncured material breach affecting only a particular Collaboration Tumor Type or Collaboration Compounds or Products directed to such Collaboration Tumor Type (collectively, a “Collaboration Program”), such termination shall apply only to the affected Collaboration Program, and this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.

14.2.2Any right to terminate this Agreement, in its entirety or with respect to a particular Collaboration Program, as applicable, under Section 14.2.1 shall be stayed and the cure period tolled in the event that, during the applicable cure period, the Party alleged to have been in material breach shall have initiated dispute resolution in accordance with Section 15.1 with respect to the alleged breach, which stay and tolling shall continue until such dispute has been resolved in accordance with Section 15.1. It is understood and agreed that during the pendency of such dispute, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect and the Parties shall continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder.

14.3Providence Discretionary Termination. Providence shall have the right to terminate this Agreement either in its entirety or with respect to a particular Collaboration Program upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to Arcturus.

14.4Effect of Termination.

14.4.1Termination of this Agreement. In the event of any termination of this Agreement in its entirety, or termination of this Agreement as to any Collaboration Program, then, in each case:

(a)all rights and licenses granted by Arcturus to Providence (including the license granted under Section 4.1) with respect to any such Collaboration Program (a “Terminated Program”) under this Agreement shall automatically terminate and revert to Arcturus;

(b)solely in the event of termination of this Agreement with respect to a particular Collaboration Program, but not this Agreement in its entirety, if Providence’s license under Section 4.1 was in effect with respect to any Collaboration Program that is not a Terminated Program immediately prior to such termination (a “Non-Terminated Program”), this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with respect to such Non‑Terminated Program, subject to all terms and conditions hereof; provided, however, that if there is no Non-Terminated

Program immediately prior to termination with respect to a Terminated Program, this Agreement will be deemed to have been terminated in its entirety;

(c)Providence shall, and it hereby does, grant to Arcturus a non‑exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free, non‑transferable (except as provided in Section 15.4) license, including the right to sublicense through multiple tiers, under Patent Rights and Know-How that in each case are Controlled by Providence and that are necessary or useful for the Development and Commercialization of Collaboration Compounds and Products for any Terminated Program (“Providence Technology”), solely to Develop, make, have made, use, sell, have sold, offer for sale and import Collaboration Compounds and Products for such Terminated Program in the Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Providence Technology includes Patent Rights or other intellectual property rights licensed to Providence by a Third Party that are subject to royalty or milestone payment obligations to such Third Party with respect to Collaboration Compounds and Products for any Terminated Program, then Providence shall so notify Arcturus, together with a true, complete and correct description of such royalty and milestone payment obligations, and the inclusion of such Patent Rights or other intellectual property rights in the license granted to Arcturus under this Section 14.4.1(c) for such Terminated Program shall be subject to Arcturus’ agreeing in writing to pay, and promptly paying, all royalty and milestone payments that become due to such Third Party by reason of the Development or Commercialization of such Collaboration Compounds and Products by or on behalf of Arcturus or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees in the Territory;

(d)Right of First Negotiation and Right

(i)Providence shall, and it hereby does, grant to Arcturus a right of first negotiation, during the applicable ninety (90) day period (each, a “Negotiation Period”) after termination of this Agreement (with respect to each Terminated Program), to obtain an exclusive, royalty-bearing license, including the right to sublicense through multiple tiers, under Providence Technology associated with such Terminated Program, solely to Develop, make, have made, use, sell, have sold, offer for sale and import Collaboration Compounds and Products for such Terminated Program in the Territory, upon commercially reasonable terms and conditions to be negotiated in good faith by the Parties;

(ii)if Providence and Arcturus are unable to negotiate reasonable terms and conditions during any applicable Negotiation Period with respect to Providence Technology associated with a Terminated Program, Providence hereby agrees that if Providence thereafter intends to accept any offer from a Third Party with respect to Providence Technology associated with the applicable Terminated Program, Providence shall promptly notify Arcturus in writing of the proposed terms and conditions of such proposed license, and Arcturus shall have the right, exercisable within thirty (30) days, to enter into an exclusive, royalty-bearing license agreement (including the right to sublicense through multiple tiers) with Providence with respect to the Providence Technology associated with a Terminated Program on materially the same terms and conditions of such Third Party offer;

(e)Providence shall at Providence’s expense (unless such termination is by Providence for uncured material breach by Arcturus pursuant to Section 14.2, in which case at Arcturus’ request and at its expense): (i) disclose to Arcturus as soon as reasonably practicable

such Providence Technology (including all preclinical and clinical data) with respect to any Terminated Program as may be necessary or useful to enable Arcturus to practice the license granted under Section 14.4.1(c); (ii) deliver to Arcturus true, correct and complete copies of all Regulatory Filings and associated correspondence with Regulatory Authorities with respect to Collaboration Compounds and Products for such Terminated Program in the Territory, whether held in the name of Providence or its Affiliate; (iii) as promptly as reasonably practicable, transfer and assign to Arcturus all of its and its Affiliates’ right, title and interest in and to all Regulatory Filings and associated correspondence with Regulatory Authorities with respect to Collaboration Compounds and Products for such Terminated Program in the Territory (or, if applicable Law prevents or delays the transfer of ownership of any such Regulatory Filing to Arcturus, Providence shall grant, and does hereby grant, to Arcturus an exclusive and irrevocable right of access and reference to such Regulatory Filing for Collaboration Compounds and Products for such Terminated Program, and shall cooperate fully to make the benefits of such Regulatory Filings available to Arcturus or its designee); and (iv) take such other actions and execute such other instruments, assignments and documents as may be necessary to effect, evidence, register and record the transfer, assignment or other conveyance of rights under this Section 14.4.1(e) to Arcturus;

(f)any sublicense granted by Providence to any Sublicensee with respect to any Terminated Program that was in effect prior to such termination shall continue in full force and effect and shall automatically be deemed a direct license by Arcturus to such Sublicensee under this Agreement effective as of the date of termination, provided that such Sublicensee (i) is not in material breach of its sublicense and (ii) agrees in writing to comply with all of the terms of this Agreement to the extent applicable to the rights originally sublicensed to it by Providence. Any such sublicense that survives as a direct license by Arcturus pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except that the scope of the direct license shall be the same as that of the sublicense granted by Providence to such Sublicensee;

(g)at Providence’s expense (unless such termination is by Providence for uncured material breach by Arcturus pursuant to Section 14.2, in which case at Arcturus’ request and at its expense), Providence shall either promptly and diligently wind down, according to good clinical practice, any clinical trials that are ongoing with respect to any Terminated Program at the time of notice of such termination, or reasonably cooperate with Arcturus and its designees to facilitate a smooth, orderly and prompt transition of such clinical trials to Arcturus or its designees; and

(h)Providence shall, and, effective as of such termination, hereby does, assign to Arcturus all of Providence’s right, title and interest in and to any and all Product-specific trademarks used by Providence and its Affiliates in the Territory with respect to Products for any Terminated Program, including all goodwill therein, and Providence shall promptly take such actions and execute such instruments, assignments and documents as may be necessary to effect, evidence, register and record such assignment, at Arcturus’ cost.

14.4.2Return of Confidential Information. In the event of termination of this Agreement in its entirety or with respect to a particular Collaboration Program, each Party shall return (or destroy, as directed by the other Party) all data, files, records and other materials

containing or comprising the other Party’s Confidential Information, except to the extent such Confidential Information is necessary or useful for the practice of any license granted to Providence under Section 4.1 that remains in effect with respect to any Non‑Terminated Program (if applicable) or of any license granted to Arcturus pursuant to Section 14.4.1(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party will be permitted to retain one copy of Confidential Information of the other Party as necessary to comply with applicable Law and for the purpose of determining any continuing obligations hereunder.

14.4.3Accrued Rights and Obligations: Survival. Neither expiration nor any termination of this Agreement shall relieve either Party of any obligation or liability accruing prior to such expiration or termination, nor shall expiration or any termination of this Agreement preclude either Party from pursuing all rights and remedies it may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity, with respect to breach of this Agreement. The provisions of Article 1 (to the extent defined terms are contained in the following surviving Articles and Sections), Article 12 and Article 15 and Sections 9.11, 9.12, 9.13, 10.1, 11.4, 11.5, 13.1, 13.2, and 14.4 shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

MISCELLANEOUS

15.1 Dispute Resolution. It is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of disputes arising under this Agreement in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation and without resort to litigation. In the event of any disputes, controversies or differences which may arise between the Parties out of or in relation to or in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any alleged failure to perform, or breach, of this Agreement, or any issue relating to the interpretation, application, enforcement, termination or validity of this Agreement (each, a “Dispute”), then upon the request of either Party by written notice, the Parties agree to first meet and discuss in good faith a possible resolution thereof, which good faith efforts shall include at least one in-person meeting between the Parties’ respective Designated Executive Officers. If the matter is not resolved within thirty (30) days following the written request for discussions, either Party may refer the Dispute to be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the International Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the International Centre for Dispute Resolution. The arbitration shall be conducted in San Diego, California by one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with the Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party will have the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, a preliminary injunction or other equitable relief to preserve the status quo or prevent irreparable harm.

15.2Governing Law. This Agreement and its effect are subject to and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the law of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of laws.

15.3Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and all Exhibits attached to this Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the Parties as to the subject matter hereof. All prior and contemporaneous negotiations, representations, warranties, agreements, statements, promises and understandings with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement are hereby superseded and merged into, extinguished by and completely expressed by this Agreement, including the Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood that information disclosed thereunder shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement). Neither Party shall be bound by or charged with any written or oral agreements, representations, warranties, statements, promises or understandings not specifically set forth in this Agreement. No amendment, supplement or other modification to any provision of this Agreement shall be binding unless in writing and signed by the Parties.

15.4Successors and Assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations created herein may be assigned by either Party, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Party, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that either Party shall be free to assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder without the other Party’s consent:

(a)to an Affiliate of such Party, provided that such Party shall remain liable and responsible to the other Party for the performance and observance of all such duties and obligations by such Affiliate; or

(b)to a successor of such Party pursuant to a bona fide business reorganization if such Party changes its corporate domicile or jurisdiction of incorporation, or performs a continuation to continue its corporate existence under the laws of another jurisdiction as if it had been incorporated under the laws of that other jurisdiction, provided that such successor assumes all obligations from such Party under this Agreement; or

(c)in connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of the business of such Party to which this Agreement relates to a Third Party (“Third Party Acquirer”), whether by sale of stock, sale of assets, merger, reorganization, amalgamation or other combination (whether by plan of arrangement or by other means whatsoever) or otherwise (each, a “Sale Transaction”), provided that in the event of a Sale Transaction (whether this Agreement is actually assigned or is assumed by the Third Party Acquirer or the surviving corporation resulting from such Sale Transaction by operation of law (e.g., in the context of a reverse triangular merger)) intellectual property rights of the Third-Party Acquirer (i) existing prior to the Sale Transaction, or (ii) developed after the Sale Transaction without use of such Party’s intellectual property, shall not be included in the technology licensed hereunder or otherwise subject to this Agreement.

This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties hereto, and the name of a Party appearing herein will be deemed to include the name of such Party’s successors and permitted assigns to the extent necessary to carry out the intent of this section. Any assignment of this Agreement in contravention of this Section 15.4 shall be null and void.

15.5Rights Upon Bankruptcy. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to any section of this Agreement are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and other similar laws in any jurisdiction outside the U.S. including Section 65.11(7) of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), and Section 32(6) of the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) (collectively, the “Bankruptcy Laws”), licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined under the Bankruptcy Laws. The Parties shall retain and may fully exercise all of their respective rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Laws. Upon the bankruptcy of any Party, the non-bankrupt Party shall further be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual property, and such, if not already in its possession, shall be promptly delivered to the non-bankrupt Party, unless the bankrupt Party elects to continue, and continues, to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement.

15.6Independent Contractors. The relationship between Arcturus and Providence created by this Agreement is solely that of independent contractors. This Agreement does not create any agency, distributorship, employee-employer, partnership, joint venture or similar business relationship between the Parties. Neither Party is a legal representative of the other Party, and neither Party can assume or create any obligation, representation, warranty or guarantee, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party for any purpose whatsoever. Each Party shall use its own discretion and shall have complete and authoritative control over its employees and the details of performing its obligations under this Agreement.

15.7Notice. All notices or communication required or permitted to be given by either Party hereunder shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered in person, mailed by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, or sent by overnight courier, such as Federal Express, to the other Party at its respective address set forth below or to such other address as one Party shall give notice of to the other from time to time hereunder. Mailed notices shall be deemed to be received on the sixth (6th) business day following the date of mailing.

A Party’s consent to or waiver, express or implied, of any other Party’s breach of its obligations hereunder shall not be deemed to be or construed as a consent to or waiver of any other breach of the same or any other obligations of such breaching Party. A Party’s failure to complain of any act, or failure to act, by the other Party, to declare the other Party in default, to insist upon the strict performance of any obligation or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, no matter how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such Party of its rights hereunder, of any such breach, or of any other obligation or condition. A Party’s consent in any one instance shall not limit or waive the necessity to obtain such Party’s consent in any future instance. In any event no consent or waiver shall be effective for any purpose hereunder unless such consent or waiver is in writing and signed by the Party granting such consent or waiver.

15.11Remedies not Exclusive. The remedies provided to the Parties under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive to each other, and any such remedy will not be deemed or construed to affect any right which any of the Parties is entitled to seek at law, in equity or by statute (other than as provided in Section 15.1).

Each Party shall be excused from liability for the failure or delay in performance of any obligation under this Agreement by reason of any event beyond such Party’s reasonable control including but not limited to Acts of God, fire, flood, explosion, earthquake, or other natural forces, war, civil unrest, acts of terrorism, accident, destruction or other casualty, any lack or failure of transportation facilities, any lack or failure of supply of raw materials, any strike or labor disturbance, or any other event similar to those enumerated above. Such excuse from liability shall be effective only to the extent and duration of the event(s) causing the failure or delay in performance and provided that the Party has not caused such event(s) to occur. Notice of a Party’s failure or delay in performance due to force majeure must be given to the other Party within ten (10) days after its occurrence. All delivery dates under this Agreement that have been affected by force majeure shall be tolled for the duration of such force majeure. In no event shall any Party be required to prevent or settle any labor disturbance or dispute.

FINANCIAL DEFINITIONS

1.“Net Sales” means the gross amounts invoiced for sales or other dispositions of Product by or on behalf of Providence, any of its Affiliates or any Sublicensee (each, a “Selling Party”) to Third Parties (other than to a Sublicensee for resale), less the following deductions, to the extent specifically and solely allocable to such Product and actually incurred, taken, paid, accrued or allowed by the Selling Party (if not previously deducted in calculating the amount invoiced):

(a)normal and customary trade discounts, including trade, cash and quantity discounts, rebates or credits, actually allowed or taken;

(b)credits, refunds or allowances actually granted or made for rejection or return of previously sold Product, including recalls, or for retroactive price reductions and billing errors;

(c)compulsory payments and cash rebates related to the sales of Product paid to a Governmental Authority (or agent thereof) pursuant to governmental regulations, including government levied fees as a result of healthcare reform policies;

(d)rebates, chargebacks, and discounts (or the equivalent thereof) to managed health care organizations, pharmacy benefit managers (or the equivalent thereof), federal, state, provincial, local or other governments, or their agencies or purchasers, reimbursers, or trade customers;

(e)charges separately invoiced to customers for outbound freight, insurance, transportation, postage and handling;

(f)non-recoverable sales taxes, excise taxes, use taxes, value‑added taxes, custom duties and other equivalent governmental charges levied on or measured by the billing amount for Product, as adjusted for rebates and refunds, to the extent separately itemized on the invoice (but specifically excluding, for clarity, any income taxes assessed against the income arising from such sale);

(g)wholesaler inventory management fees; and

(h)any other similar and customary deductions which are in accordance with Accounting Standards.

In no event shall any particular amount identified above be deducted more than once in calculating Net Sales (i.e., no “double counting” of deductions). Net Sales will be determined from books and records of the Selling Party maintained in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards.

For clarification, sale of Product by a Selling Party to another Selling Party for resale by such entity to a Third Party (other than a Selling Party) shall not be deemed a sale for purposes

of this definition of “Net Sales,” provided that the subsequent resale is included in the computation of Net Sales. Further, transfers or dispositions of Product, without consideration: (A) in connection with patient assistance programs; (B) for charitable or promotional purposes; (C) for preclinical, clinical, regulatory or governmental purposes or under so-called “named patient” or other limited access programs; or (D) for use in any tests or studies reasonably necessary to comply with Applicable Law, regulation or request by a Regulatory Authority, shall not be deemed sales of such Product for purposes of this definition of “Net Sales.”

1A.Calculation of Net Sales of Combination Products. On a country-by-country basis, if a Product under this Agreement is sold in the form of a Combination Product in a country, Net Sales for the purpose of determining any payment hereunder shall be calculated as follows:

(a)Where both Product containing the Collaboration Compound as its sole active pharmaceutical ingredient (“Single-Agent Product”) and all Other Active(s) in such Combination Product are sold separately in such country, Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of such Combination Product in such country (as determined in accordance with paragraph 1 of this Exhibit B) by the fraction A/(A+B), where A is the net invoice price of Single-Agent Product in such country, and B is the sum of the net invoice prices of the Other Active(s) in the combination when sold separately in such country.

(b)If a Single-Agent Product is sold in such country, but none of the Other Active(s) is sold separately in such country, Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of such Combination Product in such country (as determined in accordance with paragraph 1 of this Exhibit B) by the fraction A/C, where A is the net invoice price of such Single-Agent Product in such country, and C is the net invoice price of the Combination Product in such country.

(c)If no Single-Agent Product is sold separately in such country, but the Other Active(s) are sold separately in such country, Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of such Combination Product in such country (as determined in accordance with paragraph 1 of this Exhibit B) by the fraction (C-D)/C, where C is the net invoice price of the Combination Product in such country, and D is the sum of the net invoice prices charged for the Other Active(s) in the Combination Product when sold separately in such country.

(d)If neither Single-Agent Product nor the Other Active(s) are sold separately in such country, Net Sales for the Combination Product shall be determined by mutual agreement of the Parties in good faith taking into account the relative value contributions of the Collaboration Compound portion of the Combination Product and the Other Active(s) in the Combination Product; provided, however, that in no event shall the relative value contribution of the Collaboration Compound portion of the Combination Product be less than 50%. In case of disagreement, an independent expert agreed upon by both Parties or, failing such agreement, designated by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution located in New York City, NY, shall determine such relative value contributions and such determination shall be final and binding upon the Parties.

2.	“Product Revenue” means, with respect to any Product: (a) the sum of (x) Net Sales of such Product by Providence or its Affiliates (but excluding Net Sales by Providence’s

Sublicensees) and (y) Other Product Revenue with respect to such Product; less (b) royalties and milestone payments actually paid by a Party or its Affiliates to a Third Party under a Third Party License with respect to a Sublicensee’s Development or Commercialization of Product, except to the extent such Sublicensee is obligated to reimburse a Party or its Affiliates for such milestone or royalty payments. Product Revenue will be determined from books and records maintained by a Party or its Affiliate in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards, consistently applied throughout the organization and across all products of such Party or its Affiliate.

3.“Commercialization Expenses” means the following costs of Commercialization activities actually performed by Providence or its Affiliates or their Third-Party subcontractors (but not by or on behalf of Sublicensees) with respect to a Product (to the extent not already deducted in calculating Net Sales), as approved by the JSC in the applicable Product Budget. Commercialization Expenses will be determined from books and records maintained in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards, consistently applied throughout the organization and across all products of the entity whose sales of Products are giving rise to Commercialization Expenses.

(a)“Costs of Sales”: (i) the supply price paid by Providence or its Affiliates for Product for commercial distribution by or on behalf of Providence or its Affiliates; and (ii) to the extent not included in such supply price or reimbursed by a Third Party: (A) any other direct costs and expenses incurred by Providence or its Affiliates of Manufacturing, or having Manufactured, a Product, including costs of freight, customs, duty and shipping insurance for in-bound Product for commercial distribution by or on behalf of Providence or its Affiliates; (B) actual inventory write-offs with respect to Product for commercial distribution by or on behalf of Providence or its Affiliates; and (C) in the event that the Parties mutually agree in writing that a license under Patent Rights of a Third Party is reasonably necessary for the manufacture, use or sale of a Product in a country (a “Third Party License”), such royalties and milestone payments that are mutually agreed by the Parties to be included in “Costs of Sales” and that are actually paid to such Third Party under such Third Party License by a Party or its Affiliates with respect to Providence’s or its Affiliates’ (but not a Sublicensee’s) Development or Commercialization of such Product in such country.

Notwithstanding the foregoing definition or any other provision of this Agreement (including this Exhibit B) to the contrary, Commercialization Expenses (including, but not limited to, Costs of Sales) shall in all events exclude: (1) any and all amounts paid or payable by Providence or its Affiliate to a Third Party pursuant to a license agreement entered into by Providence or its Affiliate in settlement or compromise of any claim that the development, manufacture, production, use, importation, offer for sale, or sale of Products by or on behalf of Providence or its Affiliates or Sublicensees infringes the intellectual property rights of such Third Party; (2) any and all damages awarded to a Third Party against Providence or its Affiliates (or against a Sublicensee and paid, reimbursed or indemnified by Providence or its Affiliate) in any infringement action or claim brought by or on behalf of such Third Party with respect to development, manufacture, production, use, importation, offer for sale, or sale of Products by or on behalf of Providence or its Affiliates or Sublicensees; and (3) any and all Losses to which any Arcturus Indemnified Party may become subject as a result of a Third Party Claim and against which Providence is obligated to indemnify Arcturus under Section 12.1.1.

(b)“Distribution Costs”: the direct costs and expenses incurred by Providence or its Affiliates that are specifically identifiable to the distribution of a Product by Providence or its Affiliates, including customer services, collection of data about sales to hospitals and other end users, order entry, billing, shipping, credit and collection and other such activities, but in any case, not including any costs or expenses which are (i) reimbursed by any Third Party or (ii) deducted in calculating Net Sales of such Product by Providence and its Affiliates.

(c)“Marketing Costs”: with respect to a Product, the direct costs and expenses incurred by Providence or its Affiliates for marketing, promotion, advertising, promotional materials, professional education, product-related public relations, relationships with opinion leaders and professional societies, market research (before and after Regulatory Approval of a Product), healthcare economics studies, post-marketing studies required to maintain or expand Regulatory Approvals of such Product and other similar activities related to such Product and approved by the JSC. Such costs and expenses will include both internal costs (e.g., salaries, benefits, supplies and materials) and costs of outside services and expenses (e.g., consultants, agency fees and meeting costs). Marketing Costs shall also include costs and expenses incurred by Providence or its Affiliates that are directly related to obtaining reimbursement from payers and the cost of obtaining sales and marketing data (to the extent allocable to such Product and to the extent not included in the Distribution Costs or Sales Costs or deducted in calculating Net Sales). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, Marketing Costs shall specifically exclude the cost and expense of activities that promote Providence’s or its Affiliates’ business as a whole without being specific to a Product (e.g., corporate image advertising).

(d)“Sales Costs”: with respect to a Product, direct costs and expenses incurred by Providence or its Affiliates for its account and specifically identifiable to the sales efforts for such Product in all markets in the Territory including the managed care market. Sales Costs shall include costs and expenses associated with sales representatives for a Product, including the cost of compensation, benefits, travel, supervision, training, sales meetings, and other sales expenses for such sales representatives. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, Sales Costs shall exclude costs and expenses associated with the start-up of a Party’s sales force, including recruiting, relocation and other similar costs and expenses.

(e)“Other Approved Operating Expenses”: as may be approved by the JSC pursuant to Section 9.6.1.

4.“Other Product Revenue” means all payments and other consideration (including the fair market value of any non-cash consideration) received by Providence or its Affiliates from Third Parties, including Sublicensees, with respect to the commercialization of a Product, including any license fees, milestone payments, royalties (including on sales of Products by Sublicensees and other Third Parties) and other payments in connection with the grant of a license, sublicense, or option to license or sublicense, or the assignment or transfer, of rights with respect to such Product, but excluding: (i) payments for equity or debt securities of Providence or its Affiliate that are at or below the fair market value of such securities on the date of receipt, as determined in good faith by Providence’s or its Affiliates (as applicable) Board of Directors, if such securities are not then traded on a public securities exchange, or as determined by the closing

price of such securities of Providence or its Affiliate (as applicable) on the date of receipt, if such securities are then traded on a public securities exchange; (ii) bona fide research and development funding received by Providence or its Affiliate from a Sublicensee for Providence’s or its Affiliate’s employees’ performance of specified research and development work with respect to such Product (e.g., FTE funding) after the date of the applicable sublicense, and reimbursement by such Sublicensee of documented external costs incurred by Providence or its Affiliate after the date of the sublicense for specified research and development work with respect to such Product contracted by Providence or its Affiliate to Third Party service providers, in each case, specifically for such specified research and development work; provided, however, that any such research and development funding received by Providence or its Affiliate for ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ Development Costs that are included in the Post-Phase 2 Development Expenses shared by Parties in accordance with Section 9.4 and Section 9.6 of this Agreement shall be treated as “Other Product Revenue”; and (iii) payments and reimbursements by any Sublicensee of patent prosecution and maintenance costs actually incurred by Providence or its Affiliate after the date of the sublicense in the prosecution and maintenance of Providence-Controlled Patent Rights (for the avoidance of doubt, specifically excluding Product-Specific Patents) covering such Product that are licensed or sublicensed by Providence or its Affiliate to such Sublicensee.
