Ladies and Gentlemen:

As you know, Vifor Fresenius Medical Care Renal Pharma Ltd. (“VFMCRP”) and ChemoCentryx, Inc. (“ChemoCentryx”) are parties to that certain Collaboration and License Agreement, dated December 22, 2016 (the “VFMCRP Agreement”), pursuant to which ChemoCentryx granted VFMCRP an exclusive license to commercialize ChemoCentryx’s proprietary C5aR inhibitor known as CCX140 in certain countries. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this letter agreement (this “Letter”) will have the meanings provided in the VFMCRP Agreement. The VFMCRP Agreement was originally entered into between Vifor (International) Ltd. (“Vifor”) and ChemoCentryx and was subsequently assigned by Vifor to VFMCRP, so that references in the VFMCRP Agreement to VIT now refer to VFMCRP.

Vifor, VFMCRP and ChemoCentryx agree that Vifor will have the right to exercise the rights granted to VFMCRP with respect to CCX140 in China, notwithstanding the assignment of the VFMCRP Agreement to VFMCRP, so that Vifor will have a license to CCX168 in China that is consistent with the rights granted to VFMCRP in the VFMCRP Agreement, with the understanding that Vifor intends to assign such rights to VFMCRP prior to June 30, 2019.

ChemoCentryx and Vifor, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1.    “Vifor Territory” means the People’s Republic of China, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and the Macao Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (together referred as “China”).

2.    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Letter and the agreement referenced in Section 8(a) if and when entered into, as applicable, ChemoCentryx hereby grants to Vifor an exclusive (even as to ChemoCentryx), royalty bearing license, with the right to grant sublicenses as provided under the terms of Section 2.2 of the VFMCRP Agreement (as applied to Vifor in place of VFMCRP and with China being deemed a Major Market Country), under the

1.

ChemoCentryx Know-How and ChemoCentryx Patents (as applied to the Vifor Territory in place of the VIT Territory as referenced in such defined terms in the VFMCRP Agreement) (a) to seek Regulatory Approval and Pricing and Reimbursement Approval for and Commercialize the Product in the Field in the Vifor Territory and (b) to conduct those Development activities in the Field in the Vifor Territory allocated to Vifor in the Development Plan.

3.    Notwithstanding Section 2 above, if Vifor intends to grant a sublicense under the foregoing license, Vifor shall notify ChemoCentryx in writing. Any such sublicense shall be subject to and consistent with all terms of the VFMCRP Agreement, as if the sublicense were granted by VFMCRP under the VFMCRP Agreement as amended by the amendment attached hereto as Exhibit A. No such sublicense may be granted unless and until Vifor and ChemoCentryx enter into an agreement governing at least the following:

(a)    Development of the Product for the sublicensed country(ies), which would be considered Additional Studies and subject to the approval of the JSC (with decision-making authority as provided in the VFMCRP Agreement, as applied to the Vifor Territory in place of the VFMCRP Territory), unless agreed otherwise by ChemoCentryx and Vifor in writing;

(b)    Economic terms identical to the VFMCRP Agreement applicable to the rights for the sublicensed country(ies), including allocation of costs for any activities conducted therein;

(c)    ChemoCentryx’s rights to use any data and results generated with respect to the sublicensed country(ies);

(d)    Rights to obtain licenses to Third Party intellectual property rights in the sublicensed country(ies); and

(e)    Consequences for the sublicensee’s breach of its sublicense agreement with Vifor.

4.    ChemoCentryx and Vifor intend that prior to June 30, 2019, Vifor will assign the rights granted in Section 2 above to VFMCRP.

5.    No activities will be conducted prior to June 30, 2019 under the license granted in Section 3 above with respect to the Vifor Territory except with the prior written approval of ChemoCentryx, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any Development of the Product in the Vifor Territory will be conducted pursuant to the Development Plan.

6.    In consideration for the rights granted under this Letter, Vifor shall make a non-refundable, non-creditable payment to ChemoCentryx of five million United States dollars (US$5,000,000), payable within ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Letter.

7.    If VFMCRP and ChemoCentryx enter into the amendment attached hereto as Exhibit A by June 30, 2019, then this Letter will immediately terminate and be of no force and effect.

(b)    ChemoCentryx and VFMCRP shall amend the VFMCRP Agreement with necessary changes to take into account the agreement for the Vifor Territory referenced in Section 8(a), as discussed by ChemoCentryx and Vifor as of the date of this Letter.
