If such review and audit reflects an overpayment to CENTAUR, CENTAUR shall promptly remit such overpayment to ASTRA, together with reasonable interest. If the overpayment is equal to or greater than five percent (5%) of the Annual

-12-

Funding made by ASTRA to CENTAUR for such R&D Period(s), for which the review and audit has been undertaken, CENTAUR shall reimburse ASTRA for all costs of such review and audit.

6.	DEVELOPMENT WORK

6.1

-13-

Notwithstanding the time limits set forth in Section 6.4(a) or 6.4(b), such limits shall be extended (i) to account for any period during which ASTRA encounters technical or regulatory delays which prevent ASTRA’s compliance with such time limits, provided that ASTRA informs CENTAUR on an ongoing basis of such delays, which delays have not resulted from ASTRA’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (ii) for other commercial reasons which ASTRA and CENTAUR reasonably believe will benefit long-term commercial sales of such Licensed Product.

6.5

DEVELOPMENT OF LICENSED PRODUCT – OTHER THAN MAJOR MARKETS. Following successful commercial sale of Licensed Product in any of the Major Markets, ASTRA agrees to use best reasonable efforts to make the First Commercial Sale and commence regular commercial sales of each Licensed Product in each country of the world, other than the Major Markets. ASTRA and CENTAUR will confer with respect to such countries where sales and marketing of Licensed Product is not warranted as a result of economies of scale.

Should the inventions, improvements and/or discoveries referred to in Section 14.3 fall within the definition of Know-How or if same are patentable, then they shall be used exclusively within the context of this License Agreement and the Supply Agreement if within the Field. Either party may use such inventions, improvements and/or discoveries which are outside the Field, whether or not patentable, as such party may deem appropriate.

(a)

JOINT PATENT – ASTRA DEFAULT OR BANKRUPTCY. In the event this License Agreement is terminated as a result of a Default or Bankruptcy by ASTRA, then such joint inventions, improvements and/or discoveries whether existing as Know-How or as a patent application or patent, and ASTRA’s interests in the Joint Patents will be automatically exclusively licensed, royalty-free, to

-25-

CENTAUR to develop, use, market, distribute and sell Licensed Product(s) worldwide in the Field. In addition, should this License Agreement be terminated with respect to only one of the Projects in accordance with Section 20.4, then such inventions, improvements and/or discoveries related to the terminated Project as well as ASTRA’s interests in the Joint Patents related to the terminated Project will be automatically exclusively licensed in the Field to CENTAUR, royalty-free.

(b)

JOINT PATENT – CENTAUR DEFAULT OR BANKRUPTCY. In the event this License Agreement is terminated as a result of a Default or Bankruptcy by CENTAUR, then such joint inventions, improvements and/or discoveries whether existing as Know-How or as a patent application or patent, and CENTAUR’s interests in the Joint Patents will be automatically exclusively licensed to ASTRA to develop, use, market, distribute and sell Licensed Product(s) worldwide in the Field, subject to the royalty obligations provided herein.

14.4

NOTIFICATION WITH RESPECT TO PATENTS. Each party shall keep the other advised as to all developments with respect to any patent application(s) referred to in this Section 14, and shall promptly supply to the other copies of relevant papers received and filed by it in connection with the prosecution thereof in sufficient time for such party to comment thereon. The parties shall reasonably cooperate and assist each other in the patent prosecution provided for in this Section 14.

14.5

CENTAUR’S ELECTION. If ASTRA elects, with regard to CENTAUR Patents, New Inventions Patents, or Joint Patents not to have CENTAUR seek or maintain patent protection in one or more countries, CENTAUR will have the right, at CENTAUR’s sole expense and discretion, to file, procure, maintain and enforce such patents in such countries and ASTRA will cooperate fully. The parties agree that should CENTAUR exercise said right it will not in any way affect the ASTRA License granted hereunder other than should ASTRA or its sublicensees later sell a Licensed Product, the sale of which would infringe such patent procured by CENTAUR at its own expense, ASTRA will reimburse CENTAUR for its patent out-of-pocket expenses, plus twenty percent (20%) thereof related to the relevant country or countries. ASTRA agrees to advise CENTAUR in a timely manner of any decision not to continue to seek or maintain, or have CENTAUR continue to seek, or to maintain patent protection with respect to CENTAUR Patents, New Inventions Patents or Joint Patents in one or more countries in order to allow CENTAUR the timely exercise of its rights under this Section 14.5.

14.6	ASTRA’S ELECTION. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.2, New Inventions Patents and New Chemical Entity Patents shall not be deemed to be “CENTAUR

-26-

Patents” for purposes of determining the period during which ASTRA shall pay royalty to CENTAUR on Net Sales of Licensed Product pursuant to Section 7.5, unless (i) ASTRA’s manufacture, use or sale of Licensed Product in a particular country would infringe such New Inventions Patents or New Chemical Entity Patents, or (ii) ASTRA shall, in ASTRA’s sole discretion, agree that such New Inventions Patents and/or New Chemical Entity Patents shall be deemed to be “CENTAUR Patents” for purposes of Section 7.5.

14.7	MINIMUM PATENT PROTECTION. Unless extraordinary circumstances require otherwise, patent protection is to be sought and upheld on inventions falling under the license herein granted in at least the countries in which ASTRA Affiliates are established.

15.	PATENT INFRINGEMENTS

15.1

NOTIFICATION OF ALLEGED PATENT INFRINGEMENT. If a third party notifies CENTAUR, ASTRA or its sublicensees that any act by either party allegedly infringes any patent owned by the third party or any patent rights owned by or licensed to the third party, CENTAUR or ASTRA, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the other in writing.

15.2

THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. In the event of a third party claim that the exercise of the ASTRA License with respect to the manufacture, sale or other use of Licensed Product infringes any patent of such third party (a “THIRD PARTY CLAIM”), CENTAUR shall consult with ASTRA and with respect to such Third Party Claim, CENTAUR shall (i) undertake, at CENTAUR’s sole cost and expense, defense of such Third Party Claim, or (ii) request ASTRA to undertake such defense, at ASTRA’s sole cost and expense. Neither ASTRA nor CENTAUR shall settle any Third Party Claim, including an agreement to pay Third Party Royalties, without the reasonable approval of the other party. If ASTRA shall, at ASTRA’s sole cost and expense, undertake to defend such Third Party Claim, fifty percent (50%) of all costs and expenses incurred by ASTRA, including, without limitation, expert witness and attorneys’ fees, and such damages payable to any third party (other than Third Party Royalties) shall be deducted from Net Sales royalties payable to CENTAUR hereunder from countries where such Third Party Claim claims infringement, over a three (3) year period.

15.3

PAYMENT OF ADDITIONAL THIRD PARTY ROYALTIES. Should ASTRA or its sublicensees obtain one or more licenses under any patent not licensed hereunder and agree to pay Third Party Royalties in order to make, use or sell a Licensed Product (whether as a condition of settlement of an infringement action or by court order), the Net Sales royalties payable to CENTAUR hereunder shall be reduced by fifty percent (50%) of such Third Party Royalties as set forth in Section 7.6.

-27-

15.4

INFRINGEMENT OF CENTAUR PATENTS/JOINT PATENTS/NEW INVENTIONS PATENTS. If a third party shall, in the reasonable opinion of either party, infringe any CENTAUR Patent, Joint Patent or New Inventions Patents, then such party shall promptly notify the other party. ASTRA or its sublicensees shall have the initial sole right to commence an action for infringement against the third party, in its own name and/or in the name of CENTAUR, together with the right to enforce and collect any judgment thereon. If ASTRA or its sublicensee elects to exercise the right to commence an action, then CENTAUR shall, at ASTRA’s request and at ASTRA’s expense, assist in the prosecution of such action, including, but not limited to, consenting to being joined in such action as a voluntary plaintiff. ASTRA shall bear its own internal and external legal and other costs and expenses associated with the prosecution of the action. CENTAUR shall have the right to independently retain legal counsel and consultants, at CENTAUR’s sole cost and expense, but such counsel or consultants shall not have the right to affect ASTRA’s or its sublicensee(s) sole management of the prosecution of the action.

15.5

MONETARY RECOVERY – ASTRA PROSECUTION. Any monetary recovery (whether by settlement or judgment) in connection with an infringement action commenced by ASTRA or ASTRA’s sublicensees shall be applied first to reimburse ASTRA and its sublicensees, if applicable, for their out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in prosecuting such action and the expenses of CENTAUR borne by ASTRA hereunder. Any balance remaining shall be shared in the ratio of 80:20 (ASTRA:CENTAUR, respectively).

15.6

MONETARY RECOVERY – CENTAUR PROSECUTION. Should neither ASTRA, its Affiliates nor its sublicensees take appropriate and diligent action with respect to any such infringement within three (3) months after receiving notice of any infringement or possible infringement of a CENTAUR Patent, Joint Patent or New Inventions Patents, CENTAUR shall have the right, but not the obligation, to take such action, at its own expense, in its own name, and the right to enforce and collect any judgment thereon. If the recovery exceeds CENTAUR’s out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) for prosecuting the claim, then such excess recovery shall be shared by the parties in the ratio of 80:20 (CENTAUR:ASTRA, respectively).

16.	CONFIDENTIALITY

16.1

TREATMENT OF CONFIDENTIALITY. A party receiving Confidential Information of the other party shall maintain such Confidential Information in strict confidence and shall not disclose the Confidential Information to any third party. Furthermore, neither party shall use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than those purposes specified in

-28-

this License Agreement. The parties may disclose Confidential Information to the minimum number of its employees reasonably requiring access thereto for the purposes of this License Agreement, provided, however, that prior to making such disclosures, each such employee shall be apprised of the duty and obligation to maintain Confidential Information in confidence and not to use such Confidential Information for any purpose other than in accordance with the terms and conditions of this License Agreement.

16.2

RELEASE FROM RESTRICTIONS. The provisions of Section 16.1 shall not apply to any Confidential Information disclosed hereunder which is required to be disclosed by the receiving party to comply with applicable laws, or to comply with laws or regulations (including, without limitation, testing and marketing regulations), in each case only to the extent required to carry out the work contemplated by this License Agreement or other legal obligations provided that the receiving party provides prior written notice of such disclosure to the other party and takes reasonable and lawful actions to avoid and/or minimize the degree of such disclosure.

17.

TRADEMARK

ASTRA shall market, distribute and sell Licensed Product under trademarks selected and owned by ASTRA and to which CENTAUR shall have no reasonable objections.

18.	EXCLUSIVITY AND OPTION TO EXTEND THE LICENSE

18.1

RESTRICTIONS.

The foregoing restrictions shall not prohibit either party from conducting research, either alone or with third parties, that has applicability outside the Field, notwithstanding that such research may also have utility in the Field. CENTAUR further acknowledges that ASTRA has, and may continue to undertake research, development and marketing of products outside the Field which may have indications for use comparable to Licensed Product.

-29-

18.2

ASTRA RIGHT OF FIRST NEGOTIATION. ASTRA acknowledges that CENTAUR may undertake research, development and marketing of products outside the Field which may have indications for use comparable to Licensed Product. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CENTAUR will not enter into any agreement or collaboration with any third party with respect to the development, manufacture or sale of any substance or product outside the Field, but falling within ASTRA’s strategic research areas and/or such other research areas of interest to ASTRA as set forth on Appendix 4 hereof, and as the same may be modified from time to time by ASTRA in writing, without, in the first instance, CENTAUR providing ASTRA by written notice with a right of first negotiation with CENTAUR. ASTRA shall, within sixty (60) days of written notification from CENTAUR, either (i) waive such right of first negotiation, or (ii) enter into discussions with CENTAUR in which the parties shall diligently and in good faith seek to agree upon the terms and conditions of such agreement and/or collaboration.

20.1

TERM. The Term of this License Agreement (the “TERM”) shall commence as of the Effective Date. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to Section 20.2, 20.3 or 20.4, the Term shall expire at such time as ASTRA shall have no further obligation to make payments to CENTAUR on Net Sales of Licensed Product pursuant to Section 7.5.

20.2

DEFAULT. Other than as provided in Section 6.6, failure by either party to comply with any of its material obligations contained in this License Agreement following notice and opportunity to cure, as hereinafter provided (a “DEFAULT”) shall entitle the other party to terminate this License Agreement. The non-defaulting party shall give the other party notice specifying the nature of the breach of this License Agreement and requiring it to cure. If such breach is not cured within ninety (90) days after the receipt of such notice (or one hundred twenty (120) days in event such breach cannot be reasonably expected to be cured within ninety (90) days, and the defaulting party gives notice to the other party of its inability to cure such breach within a 90-day period and the defaulting party thereafter uses reasonable efforts to cure such breach as soon as practicable, but in no event longer than one hundred twenty (120) days), the notifying party shall be entitled, without prejudice to any of its other rights under this License Agreement, and in addition to any other remedies available to it by law or in equity, to terminate this License Agreement by giving notice to that effect to the defaulting party. The right of either party to terminate this License Agreement, as hereinabove provided, shall not be affected in any way by its waiver or failure to take action with respect to any previous Default.

-31-

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and other than as provided in Section 20.3 and 20.4, a party shall not have a right to terminate this License Agreement in the event the other party pursuant to Section 22 has sought to resolve the dispute for which termination is being sought.

20.3

INSOLVENCY OR BANKRUPTCY. Either party may, in addition to any other remedies available to it by law or in equity, terminate this License Agreement by written notice to the other party in the event (i) the other party shall have become insolvent or bankrupt, or shall have made an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or (ii) there shall have been appointed a trustee or receiver of the other party or for all or a substantial part of its property, or (iii) any case or proceeding shall have been commenced or some other action taken by or against the other party in bankruptcy or seeking reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, arrangement, composition or readjustment of its debts or any other relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar act or law of any jurisdiction now or hereafter in effect or there shall have been issued a warrant of attachment, execution, distraint or similar process against any substantial part of the property of the other party, and any such event or action (except where a party voluntarily takes such actions (e.g., where a party makes a bankruptcy filing)) shall have continued for ninety (90) days undismissed, unbounded and undischarged (alternatively a “BANKRUPTCY”); provided, however, that no such right to terminate shall pertain solely by virtue of a voluntary reorganization for the purpose of solvent amalgamation or reconstruction.

20.4

SPECIAL TERMINATION PROVISIONS. ASTRA shall have the right to terminate this License Agreement partially or entirely with respect to a specific Project, at any time, for any reason, upon twelve (12) months’ prior notice to CENTAUR following the second R&D Period, provided, however, that ASTRA may terminate this License Agreement with respect to a specific indication for use of SP at any time, for any reason upon twelve (12) months’ prior notice to CENTAUR, although the Annual Funding shall remain the same. Should a specific Project (i.e., either SP or AP) be terminated, while the other Project remains, research funds will be reallocated to the remaining Project (or to a substitute project if such is mutually agreed upon by the parties) but at a reduced minimum Annual Funding of [*], as adjusted in accordance with Section 5. If this License Agreement is terminated with respect to only one of the Projects, the scope of the Field and other terms of this License Agreement shall be modified accordingly, including that all rights with regard to such Project or such indication or use with respect to SP as terminated, will revert to CENTAUR.

2.8 FIRST RIGHT OF NEGOTIATION. Astra shall have the first right to negotiate with Licensors to obtain a license to practice any patent Licensors may acquire or file after the date of this License Agreement (other than any patent arising out of Licensed Technology which shall be deemed granted to Astra pursuant to paragraph 2.1 of the License Agreement) that relates to the subject matter of one or more Licensed Patents on such terms and conditions that Licensors and Astra may agree through negotiations in good faith.

Upon the expiration of such period, this License Agreement shall automatically terminate unless (i) Astra has previously cured the breach or condition permitting termination under the preceding paragraph 10.2, or (ii) such breach or condition cannot reasonably be cured within sixty (60) days due to causes beyond Astra’s reasonable control, Astra commences good faith efforts to cure such breach

-15-

within such 60-day period and Astra does cure the breach within one hundred twenty (120) days after the expiration of such 60-day period, in which case this License Agreement shall not terminate. Such notice and termination shall not prejudice Licensors’ rights to any royalties and other sums due hereunder and shall not prejudice any cause of action or claim of Licensors accrued or to accrue on account of any breach or default by Astra.

10.4 FAILURE TO ENFORCE. The failure of Licensors at any time, or for any period of time, to enforce any of the provisions of this License Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of such provisions or the right of Licensors thereafter to enforce each and every such provision.

10.5 TERMINATION BY ASTRA. Astra may terminate this License Agreement at any time giving Licensors six (6) months prior written notice of Astra’s election to terminate.

10.6 EFFECT. In the event this License Agreement is terminated prior to its expiration for any reason whatsoever, Astra (i) shall not have any right to return of any payments of any kind theretofore made by Astra to Licensors pursuant to this License Agreement, (ii) shall return, or at Licensor’s direction, destroy, all plans, drawings, papers, notes, writings and other documents, samples, organisms, biological materials and models constituting the Licensed Technology, retaining no copies, (iii) shall refrain from using or publishing any portion of the Licensed Technology as provided in Section 9 of this License Agreement, and (iv) shall cease manufacturing, processing, producing, using, selling or distributing Licensed Products; provided, however that Astra may continue to sell in the ordinary course of business for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days reasonable quantities of Licensed Products which are fully manufactured and in Astra’s normal inventory at the date of termination if:

(a)

all monetary obligations of Astra to Licensors have been satisfied, and

(b)

royalties on such sales are paid to Licensors in the amounts and in the manner provided in this License Agreement.

Upon termination of this License Agreement, any Sublicenses granted by Astra to Sublicensees that have been approved by Licensor as contemplated by Section 2.3 and in which the Sublicensees are in full compliance, including without limitation compliance with the obligations under Section 5, 9, 11 and 12 of this License Agreement, shall continue in full force and effect with Licensors substituted in Astra’s place. The provisions of Sections 9, 11 and 12 of this License Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any termination of this License Agreement.

11.	INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

11.1 INDEMNIFICATION. Other than as specifically provided elsewhere in this License Agreement, Astra shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Licensors, The University of Kentucky, the University of Oklahoma and their officers, directors, trustees and employees and all of their heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives (“INDEMNITEES”) from and against any and all claims, demands, loss, liability, expense or damage (including investigative costs, court costs and attorneys’ fees) Indemnitees may suffer, pay or incur as a result of claims, demands or actions against any of the Indemnitees arising or alleged to arise by reason of or in connection with any and all personal injury, economic loss and property damage caused or alleged to be caused or contributed to in whole or in part by the manufacture, use, lease, sale or sublicense of Licensed Products by Astra, whether asserted under a tort or contractual theory or any other legal theory, including but not limited to any and all claims, demands, and actions in which it is alleged that (i) an Indemnitee’s negligence or representations about the Licensed Products caused any defect in their manufacture, design, labeling or performance, or (ii) any alleged infringement of any patent, trademark or copyright, caused or contributed in whole or in part to the personal injury, economic loss or property damage. Astra’s obligations under this paragraph 11.1 shall survive the expiration or termination of this License Agreement for any reason. The foregoing indemnification shall not apply in the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that such liability, demands, damages, expenses and losses, arose in whole or in part as a result of Licensors’ intentional misconduct or gross negligence.

11.2 INSURANCE. Without limiting Astra’s indemnity obligations under the preceding paragraph 11.1, prior to testing any compounds in humans, Astra shall obtain a liability insurance policy which:

(a)

insures Indemnitees for all claims, demands and actions mentioned in the preceding paragraph 11.1 of this License Agreement;

(b)

includes a contractual endorsement providing coverage for all such liability which may be incurred by Indemnitees in connection with this License Agreement;

(c)

requires the insurance carrier to provide Licensors with no less than thirty (30) days written notice of any change in the terms of coverage of the policy or its cancellation; and

(d)

provides Indemnitees with product liability coverage in the following amounts for the periods indicated below:

(i)

$500,000 in product liability coverage during the period in which one (1) or more Licensed Products are being used in United

-17-

States FDS clinical trials in human beings but no Licensed Products are approved by FDA for use in human beings;

(ii)

$2,500,000 in product liability coverage for each Licensed Product approved by FDA for use in human beings;

provided that the aggregate maximum amount of product liability coverage for all Licensed Products at any time shall not exceed $10,000,000 combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage liability, subject to a deductible of not more than $100,000 per occurrence, and provided further that Astra, at its option, may provide Licensors with a certificate of Astra’s insurer substantially in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto, in lieu of naming Licensors as insureds.

Astra shall maintain such liability insurance policy throughout the term of this License Agreement and for three (3) years thereafter.

11.3 NOTICE OF CLAIMS. Astra will promptly notify Licensors of all claims involving Licensed Products.

11.4 EVIDENCE OF INSURANCE. Astra shall provide Licensors with copies of liability policies which comply fully with this License Agreement during the entire period Astra is required to maintain such insurance. If Astra fails at any time to maintain insurance as required in this License Agreement, Licensors may (but shall be under no obligation to) purchase their own policy providing all or any of the coverage and recover from Astra the cost thereof, which shall be payable on demand.

11.5 INDEMNIFICATION BY ASTRA. Astra shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitees against and with respect to all losses, damages, claims, liabilities or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred or sustained by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, any violation, breach or nonfulfillment on the part of Astra of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Astra pursuant to this License Agreement. Licensors or Indemnities shall notify Astra in writing promptly after it or they acquire actual knowledge of any action or claim against it or them hereunder which may give rise to liability of Astra pursuant to this paragraph 11.5. Astra may, at its own expense, through legal counsel reasonably approved by Licensors, defend or settle any such claim or action, provided that Astra posts security that is adequate in the reasonable discretion of Licensors to protect Licensors or Indemnities and provided Licensors are notified in writing of Astra’s intent to so defend within ten (10) days after Astra has been notified by Licensors or such other Indemnities of such claim or action.

-18-

11.6 CONTRIBUTION BY ASTRA. If the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraph 11.5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless Indemnities in respect of any of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above, then Astra shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by each such Indemnities as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by Astra on the one hand and Licensors and any other Indemnities on the other from the activities from which such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arose, as well as the relative fault of Astra on the one hand and Licensors on the other in connection with the actions or inactions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

13.1 EXPORT CONTROLS. Astra acknowledges that Licensors are subject to United States laws and regulations controlling the export of technical data, computer software, laboratory prototypes and other commodities and that Foundation’s obligations hereunder are contingent on compliance with all applicable United State export and other laws and regulations.

13.2 LEGAL COMPLIANCE.

Except as otherwise provided in this License Agreement, Astra shall not grant, transfer, convey or otherwise assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this License Agreement (except in the course of a merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of Astra’s business) without the prior written consent of Licensors, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and any attempt by Astra to do so shall be of no effect; however, this License Agreement shall be assignable by each of Licensors, provided that any such assignee has agreed in writing with Astra to be bound by the terms and provisions of this License Agreement.
