The purchase price per share for the Second Top-Up Shares will be equal to 105% of the Ten (10) Day VWAP following the filing of the applicable Triggering Report.

Following receipt of the Company TTU Notice, a Celgene Party may (the “Third Top-Up Right,” and together with the First Top-Up Right and the Second Top-Up Right, the “Top-Up Rights”), by written notice (the “TTU Notice”) delivered to the Company in accordance with Section 6.6 during the five Trading Day period following the Receipt of the Company TTU Notice, elect to purchase from the Company the number of shares of Common Stock set forth in such TTU Notice (the “Third Top-Up Shares”) up to the number of shares set forth in the Company TTU Notice. If a Celgene Party does not deliver a TTU Notice electing to purchase the maximum number of shares to which it may be entitled in any given year in which it is available (as set forth in the Company TTU Notice), then the Applicable TTU Percentage shall be adjusted downward to the percentage of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Celgene Group owned as of the end of the last Trading Day of the associated Ten (10) Day VWAP period assuming the issuance of any Third Top-Up Shares from such year. The purchase price per share for the Third Top-Up Shares will be equal to 105% of the Ten (10) Day VWAP following the filing of the applicable Triggering Report. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) if prior to the fifth anniversary of the delivery of the SAR Notice, the Celgene Group sells any Shares in reliance upon Section 3.1(B) of the Voting and Standstill Agreement, then the Applicable TTU Percentage shall be adjusted downward to equal the FAR Acquisition Percentage, and (y) the first time that the percentage of outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by the Celgene Group as of the end of the last Trading Day of the next Ten (10) Day VWAP period following such sales (after giving effect to the assumed exercise in full of the Third Top-Up Right for such period) declines below the FAR Acquisition Percentage as a result of any sales of Shares by the Celgene Group following the delivery of the SAR Notice, the Applicable TTU Percentage shall be adjusted downward, if necessary, to equal the FAR Acquisition Percentage.

(d) Upon the closing of any purchase of First Top-Up Shares, Second Top-Up Shares, or Third Top-Up Shares (collectively, the “Top-Up Shares”), the applicable Celgene Party shall pay to the Company the cash purchase price for the applicable Top-Up Shares calculated as set forth in Section 2.3(a), (b) or (c), as applicable, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and the Company shall irrevocably instruct the Transfer Agent to deliver to the applicable Celgene Party the applicable Top-Up Shares in book-entry form, free and clear of all restrictive and other legends (except as expressly provided in Section 4.1(b) hereof). For avoidance of doubt, when the Triggering Report is filed prior to the open of the Principal Trading Market on a Trading Day, such Trading Day shall be deemed to be the first Trading Day after the filing of the Triggering Report.

2.4 First and Second Acquisition Rights.

(a) Once the First Acquisition Right Conditions have been satisfied, the Celgene Parties may, by written notice (the “FAR Notice”) delivered to the Company in accordance with Section 6.6 on a Trading Day at any one time following the fourth anniversary of the date hereof and prior to the FAR Termination Date, purchase from the Company (the “First Acquisition Right”) shares of Common Stock (the “First Acquisition Right Shares”) such that, after giving effect to such purchase, the Celgene Group would own the percentage (up to 19.99%, provided that the maximum number of shares that can be purchased shall be reduced from this percentage for any sales, transfers, or dispositions by the Celgene Group to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee that have occurred since the Closing Date, appropriately and equitably adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, share exchange, merger, consolidation or similar recapitalization) specified in such notice (the “FAR Acquisition Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the date of such notice. Upon receipt by the Company of the FAR Notice, the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days, provide the Celgene Parties with written notice of the purchase price(s) per First Acquisition Right Share calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(b), the number of First Acquisition Right Shares and the calculation of the aggregate purchase price for the First Acquisition Right Shares. In consideration for the First Acquisition Right Shares, the applicable Celgene Party shall pay to the Company the cash purchase price for the First Acquisition Right Shares set forth in such notice by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and the Company shall irrevocably instruct the Transfer Agent to deliver to the applicable Celgene Party the First Acquisition Right Shares in book-entry form, free and clear of all restrictive and other legends (except as expressly provided in Section 4.1(b) hereof). If the number of First Acquisition Right Shares is reduced as a result of the provision of this Section 2.4(a) providing that the maximum number of shares that can be purchased shall be reduced by sales, transfers, or dispositions by the Celgene Group, the FAR Acquisition Percentage (notwithstanding the percentage stated in the FAR Notice) shall be reduced to the percentage ownership of the Celgene Group after giving effect to the purchase, as of the date of the FAR Notice.

(b) The purchase price per First Acquisition Right Share will be equal to: (x) the closing price of the Common Stock on the Principal Trading Market on the date of delivery of the FAR Notice (the “First Acquisition Right Base Price”) with respect to the FAR Catch-Up Number of First Acquisition Right Shares and (y) the First Acquisition Right Base Price, plus the applicable premium set forth on Schedule 2.4(b) with respect to the remaining First Acquisition Right Shares.

(c) Once the Second Acquisition Right Conditions have been satisfied, Celgene Corp. may, by written notice delivered to the Company in accordance with Section 6.6 (the “SAR Notice”) on a Trading Day at any one time following the ninth anniversary of the date hereof and prior to the SAR Termination Date, purchase from the Company (the “Second Acquisition Right”) shares of Common Stock (the “Second Acquisition Right Shares”) such that, after giving effect to such purchase, the Celgene Group would own the percentage (up to 30%, provided that the maximum number of shares that can be purchased shall be reduced from this percentage for any sales, transfers, or dispositions by the Celgene Group to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee that have occurred since the Closing Date outside of a Sell-Down Period, appropriately and equitably adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, share exchange, merger, consolidation or similar recapitalization) specified in such notice (the “SAR Acquisition Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the date of such notice. Upon receipt by the Company of the SAR Notice, the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days, provide Celgene Corp. with written notice of the purchase price(s) per Second Acquisition Right Share calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(d), the number of Second Acquisition Right Shares and the calculation of the aggregate purchase price for the Second Acquisition Right Shares. In consideration for the Second Acquisition Right Shares, Celgene Corp. shall pay to the Company the cash purchase price for the Second Acquisition Right Shares set forth in such notice by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and the Company shall irrevocably instruct the Transfer Agent to deliver to Celgene Corp. the Second Acquisition Right Shares in book-entry form, free and clear of all restrictive and other legends (except as expressly provided in Section 4.1(b) hereof). If the number of Second Acquisition Right Shares is reduced as a result of the provision of this Section 2.4(c) providing that

 

13


the maximum number of shares that can be purchased shall be reduced by sales, transfers, or dispositions by the Celgene Group, the SAR Acquisition Percentage (notwithstanding the percentage stated in the SAR Notice) shall be reduced to the percentage ownership of the Celgene Group after giving effect to the purchase, as of the date of the SAR Notice.

(d) The purchase price per share of the Second Acquisition Right Shares will be equal to: (x) the closing price of the Common Stock on the Principal Trading Market on the date of delivery of the SAR Notice (the “Second Acquisition Right Base Price”) multiplied by 1.05 with respect to the SAR Catch-Up Number of First Acquisition Right Shares and (y) the Second Acquisition Right Base Price plus the applicable premium set forth on Schedule 2.4(d) with respect to the remaining Second Acquisition Right Shares.

(e) Upon satisfaction of the Minimum FAR Purchase Condition, the Celgene Parties will have the right to: (x) exercise the Celgene Co-Promote Right in accordance with Section 3.1.4 of the Collaboration Agreement for one (1) additional Juno Program, excluding the CD19 Program and the CD22 Program, but including any CAR/TCR Deferred Program, or any Undesignated IMM Program that becomes a Juno Program pursuant to Section 2.2.1 or Section 3.1.5, respectively, of the Collaboration Agreement (the “Additional Co-Promote Option”) and (y) by written notice to the Company during the Second Top-Up Period, reduce the FAR Acquisition Percentage to 16% until such time that the Celgene Group collectively owns 16% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding (the period from such notice to such time, the “Sell-Down Period”, immediately after which, the FAR Acquisition Percentage shall be 16%), and during such period, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Celgene Group in reducing their ownership of the shares of outstanding Common Stock to 16%.

2.5 Subsequent Closings. Each Subsequent Closing shall take place at the offices of Latham & Watkins LLP, 140 Scott Drive, Menlo Park, California 94025, on the date which is two Trading Days after the date on which all conditions to such Subsequent Closing, as set forth in Article V, shall been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Subsequent Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions), or at such other locations or remotely by facsimile transmission or other electronic means as the parties may mutually agree.

2.6 Limit on Issuance. The parties agree that the aggregate number of shares to be issued under this Agreement shall not exceed such number of Shares that is equal to 19.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or the voting power of the Company as of immediately prior to the date hereof, except to the extent that the stockholders of the Company have approved any issuance of Shares in excess of that limit.

ARTICLE III.

The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free and clear of all Liens, other than restrictions on transfer provided for in the Transaction Documents or imposed by applicable securities laws, and shall not be subject to preemptive or similar rights. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Celgene Parties in this Agreement, the Shares will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.

(f) Capitalization. The number of shares and type of all authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock, options and other securities of the Company (whether or not presently convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company) is set forth in Section 3.1(f) of the Disclosure Schedules. The Company has not issued any capital stock since the date of its most recently filed SEC Report other than to reflect stock option exercises or the vesting of restricted stock units. No Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents that have not been effectively waived as of the Closing Date. Except as set forth on Section 3.1(f) of the Disclosure Schedules or as specifically disclosed in the most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K or subsequent SEC Reports, there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire any shares of Common Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. The issuance and sale of the Shares will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Celgene Parties) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under any of such securities. Except for the Required Approvals, no further approval or authorization of any stockholder, the Board of Directors or others is required for the issuance and sale of the Shares. Except for the Voting and Standstill Agreement, as set forth on Section 3.1(f) of the Disclosure Schedules, or as specifically disclosed in the most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K or subsequent SEC Reports, there are no stockholders agreements, voting agreements or other similar agreements with respect to the Company’s capital stock to which the Company is a party or, to the Company’s Knowledge, between or among any of the Company’s stockholders.

The Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to have been filed by it under the Exchange Act as of the date hereof, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for the two years preceding the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law or regulation to file such material) (the foregoing materials, including the exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein, and also including the Company’s prospectus dated December 19, 2014 filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports,” and the SEC Reports, together with the Disclosure Schedules, being collectively referred to as the “Disclosure Materials”) on a timely basis or has received a valid extension of such time of filing and has filed any such SEC Reports prior to the expiration of any such extension, except where the failure to file on a timely basis would not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (including, for this purpose only, any failure which would prevent the Celgene Parties from using Rule 144 to resell any Shares). As of their respective filing dates, or to the extent corrected by a subsequent restatement, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company has never been an issuer subject to Rule 144(i) under the Securities Act. Each of the Material Contracts to which the Company is a party or to which the property or assets of the Company are subject has been filed as an exhibit to the SEC Reports.

 

16


(h) Financial Statements. The financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing (or to the extent corrected by a subsequent restatement). Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved, except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial year-end audit adjustments.

(i) Material Changes. Except as specifically disclosed in SEC Reports filed prior to the date hereof, (i) there have been no events, occurrences or developments that have had or would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) the Company has not incurred any material liabilities other than (A) trade payables and accrued expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and (B) liabilities not required to be reflected in the Company’s financial statements pursuant to GAAP or disclosed in filings made with the Commission, (iii) the Company has not altered materially its method of accounting or the manner in which it keeps its accounting books and records, (iv) the Company has not declared or made any dividend or distribution of cash, shares of capital stock or other property to its stockholders or purchased, redeemed or made any agreements to purchase or redeem any shares of its capital stock (other than in connection with repurchases of unvested stock issued to employees of the Company), and (v) the Company has not issued any equity securities to any officer, director or Affiliate, except Common Stock issued in the ordinary course as dividends on outstanding preferred stock or issued pursuant to existing Company stock option or stock purchase plans or executive and director compensation arrangements disclosed in the SEC Reports.

(j) Litigation. There is no Action which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the Shares or (ii) except as specifically disclosed in the SEC Reports, would, if there were an unfavorable decision, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor, to the Company’s Knowledge, any director or officer thereof is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty relating to actions taken at the Company. There has not been, and to the Company’s Knowledge there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the Commission involving the Company. The Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act.

(k) Sarbanes-Oxley; Disclosure Controls. The Company is in compliance in all material respects with all of the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which are applicable to it as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as of the Closing Date. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the Company’s most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

17


(l) Certain Fees. Except for sublicense consideration payments that may be required under certain of Company’s license agreements due to the licenses and sublicenses granted under the Collaboration Agreement, no person or entity will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company or the Celgene Parties for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of the Company, with respect to the offer and sale of the Shares.

(m) Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Celgene Parties’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 of this Agreement, no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Shares by the Company to the Celgene Parties under the Transaction Documents.

The Company has not, in the twelve (12) months or such applicable shorter period preceding the date hereof, received written notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company is in compliance with all listing and maintenance requirements of the Principal Trading Market on the date hereof.

(q) Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreements. The Company and the Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s charter documents or the laws of the State of Delaware that is or would reasonably be expected to become applicable to the Celgene Parties as a result of the Celgene Parties and the Company fulfilling its obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, the Company’s issuance of the Shares and the Celgene Parties’ ownership of the Shares.

(r) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Celgene Parties’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, none of the Company nor, to the Company’s Knowledge, any of its Affiliates or any Person acting on its behalf has, directly or indirectly, at any time within the past six (6) months, made any offers or sales of any Company security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would (i) eliminate the availability of the exemption from registration under Regulation D under the Securities Act in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of the Shares as contemplated hereby or (ii) cause the offering of the Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of any applicable law, regulation or stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.

 

18

3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Celgene Parties. Each of the Celgene Parties hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof to the Company as follows:

(a) Organization; Authority. Each Celgene Party is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with the requisite corporate or partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the applicable Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by each Celgene Party and performance by each Celgene Party of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of each Celgene Party. Each Transaction Document to which a Celgene Party is a party has been duly executed by such Celgene Party, and when delivered by such Celgene Party in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Celgene Party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors’ rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application. As of the date of this Agreement, Celgene RIVOT is a direct or indirect wholly owned controlled subsidiary of Celgene Corp. As of the date of any Closing or Subsequent Closing where the purchaser of the Shares in such Closing or Subsequent Closing is Celgene RIVOT or a Permitted Transferee (pursuant to Section 6.10), such purchaser will be a direct or indirect wholly owned controlled subsidiary of Celgene Corp.

(b) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by each Celgene Party of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and the consummation by each Celgene Party of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational

 

19


documents of either Celgene Party, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which either Celgene Party is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to either Celgene Party, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Celgene Parties to perform their obligations hereunder.

(c) Investment Intent. Each Celgene Party understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Shares for its own account and not with a view to, or for distributing or reselling such Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws. Each Celgene Party is acquiring the Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of business. Neither Celgene Party presently has any agreement, plan or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute or effect any distribution of any of the Shares (or any securities which are derivatives thereof) to or through any person or entity. Neither Celgene Party is a registered broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act nor an entity engaged in a business that would require it to be so registered as a broker-dealer.

(d) Status. At the time each Celgene Party was offered the Shares, it was, and at the date hereof or any date in the future on which each Celgene Party purchases Shares, it is and will be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.

(e) General Solicitation. Neither Celgene Party is purchasing the Shares as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding Shares published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general advertisement.

(f) Experience. Each Celgene Party, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Each Celgene Party is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

(g) Access to Information. Each Celgene Party acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review the Disclosure Materials and has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares and the merits and risks of investing in the Shares; (ii) access to information about the Company and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable such Celgene Party to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of either Celgene Party or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect either Celgene Party’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Disclosure Materials and the Company’s representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents. The Celgene Parties have sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as they have considered necessary to make an informed decision with respect to its acquisition of the Shares.

(h) Brokers and Finders. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company or either Celgene Party for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of either Celgene Party.

 

20


(i) Independent Investment Decision. Each Celgene Party has independently evaluated the merits of its decision to purchase Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents and such Celgene Party has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Shares.

(j) United States Investor. Celgene Corp. is a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code).

The Company and the Celgene Parties acknowledge and agree that no party to this Agreement has made or makes any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Article III and the Transaction Documents.

ARTICLE IV.

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

(a) Compliance with Laws. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, the Celgene Parties acknowledge and agree that the Shares may be disposed of only pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Shares other than (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) to the Company or (iii) pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Shares under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and shall have the rights of the Celgene Parties under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement with respect to such transferred Shares.

(b) Legends. In addition to any legend required under the Voting and Standstill Agreement, the book-entry or certificated form of the Shares shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form, until such time as they are not required under Section 4.1(c):

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OF SUCH ACT.

(c) Removal of Legends. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Voting and Standstill Agreement, the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) above shall be removed and the Company shall issue to such holder the applicable Shares in book-entry form free and clear of such legend or any other legends by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”),

 

21


if (i) such Shares are sold under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (ii) such Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 (if the transferor is not an Affiliate of the Company), or (iii) such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such securities and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Voting and Standstill Agreement, the Company agrees that it shall cause Company Counsel (i) after the Effective Date, to issue to the Transfer Agent, if required by the Transfer Agent, a “blanket” legal opinion or other letter to allow sales without restriction pursuant to the effective registration statement and (ii) provide all other opinions of Company Counsel as may reasonable be required by the Transfer Agent in connection with the removal of legends pursuant to this Section 4.1(c) following receipt of the certificates and documents contemplated below. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Voting and Standstill Agreement, following Rule 144 becoming available for the resale of Shares, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such securities and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, the Company, upon the request of a Celgene Party and delivery of the certificates and documents contemplated below, shall cause Company Counsel or other counsel satisfactory to the Transfer Agent to issue to the Transfer Agent a legal opinion stating that such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such securities and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions. Any fees (with respect to the Transfer Agent, Company Counsel or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinion or the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Company. Except with respect to the restrictions set forth in the Voting and Standstill Agreement, the Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.1(c).

(d) Acknowledgement. Each Celgene Party hereunder acknowledges its primary responsibilities under the Securities Act and accordingly will not sell or otherwise transfer the Shares or any interest therein without complying with the requirements of the Securities Act. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Voting and Standstill Agreement, while the Registration Statement remains effective, a Celgene Party may sell the Shares accordance with the plan of distribution contained in the Registration Statement and if it does so it will comply therewith and with the related prospectus delivery requirements unless an exemption therefrom is available. Each Celgene Party agrees that if it is notified by the Company in writing at any time that the Registration Statement registering the resale of the Shares is not effective or that the prospectus included in such Registration Statement no longer complies with the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, such Celgene Party will refrain from selling such Shares until such time as such Celgene Party is notified by the Company that such Registration Statement is effective or such prospectus is compliant with Section 10 of the Securities Act, unless such Celgene Party is able to, and does, sell such Shares pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act.

4.2 Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Shares to a Celgene Party, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

4.3 Shareholder Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that a Celgene Party is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that a Celgene Party could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, in either case solely by virtue of purchasing the Shares under the Transaction Documents.

 

22


4.4 Principal Trading Market Listing. In the time and manner required by the Principal Trading Market, the Company shall prepare and file with such Principal Trading Market an additional shares listing application covering all of the Shares and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all steps necessary to cause all of the Shares to be approved for listing, and continue to be listed for so long as they are owned by a Celgene Party, on the Principal Trading Market as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement.

4.5 Form D. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Shares as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the Celgene Parties.

4.6 HSR Act and Foreign Antitrust Approvals.

(a) In connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall (i) comply promptly but in no event later than ten (10) Trading Days after the date hereof, or the date a FAR Notice, SAR Notice, FTU Notice, STU Notice or TTU Notice (each, a “Purchase Notice”), as applicable, is delivered if the purchase of the related Shares would trigger reporting requirements under the HSR Act, with the notification and reporting requirements of the HSR Act and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act provided, that there will be no obligation to seek such early termination in the event of any filing under the HSR Act with respect to the First Acquisition Right, Second Acquisition Right or Top-Up Right that is made prior to the applicable Purchase Notice; and (ii) as soon as practicable, make such other filings with any foreign Governmental Authorities as may be required under any applicable similar foreign law, rule or regulation. Each of the parties hereto shall use reasonable best efforts to substantially comply with any Antitrust Information or Document Requests.

(b) Each Celgene Party shall promptly furnish to the Company copies of any notices or written communications received by such Celgene Party from any third party or any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such Celgene Party shall permit counsel to the Company an opportunity to review in advance, and such Celgene Party shall consider in good faith the views of such counsel in connection with, any proposed written communications by such Celgene Party to any Governmental Authority concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Celgene Party agrees to provide the Company and its counsel the opportunity, on reasonable advance notice, to participate in any substantive meetings or discussions, either in person or by telephone, between such Celgene Party and/or any of its agents or advisors, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) The Celgene Parties shall be solely responsible for and pay all fees associated with the premerger filing under the HSR Act and any other filings required to be submitted to Governmental Authorities under applicable similar foreign law, rule, or regulation that are payable to the Antitrust Authorities in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.7 Reservation of Shares and Stockholder Approvals and Waivers. Each of the parties (a) will make, or cause to be made, all filings and submissions under laws, rules and regulations applicable to it, or to its subsidiaries and Affiliates, as may be required for such party to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) will use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, all authorizations, approvals, consents, qualifications, orders and waivers from all Persons necessary to be obtained by it in order to consummate such transactions, and (c) will use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions necessary, proper or advisable in order for it to fulfill its respective obligations under this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, the

 

23


Company will: (i) keep authorized and reserved for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to enable the issuance of the Shares to be issued at the Closing or any Subsequent Closing; (ii) seek any consent, amendment, or waiver that may be required under the Existing Rights Agreement with respect to the rights granted under the Registration Rights Agreement; and (iii) seek shareholder approval in compliance with the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, including at the Company’s 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, for the issuance of Top Up Shares, First Acquisition Right Shares, and Second Acquisition Right Shares on the terms and conditions in this Agreement until such approval is obtained; and (iv) use commercially reasonable efforts to timely file all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act of 1934, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, until the expiration or termination of the Celgene Parties’ registration right pursuant to Sections 6(i)(A) or (B) of the Registration Rights Agreement.

4.8 Tax Withholding.

(a) The Celgene Parties shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such taxes as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of applicable law. The party that is required to make such withholding (the “Paying Party”) will: (i) deduct those taxes from such payment, (ii) timely remit the taxes to the proper taxing authority, and (iii) send evidence of the obligation together with proof of tax payment to the recipient party (the “Payee Party”) on a timely basis following that tax payment; provided, however, that before making any such deduction or withholding, the Paying Party shall give the Payee Party notice of the intention to make such deduction or withholding (such notice, which shall include the authority, basis and method of calculation for the proposed deduction or withholding, shall be given at least a reasonable period of time before such deduction or withholding is required, in order for such Payee Party to obtain reduction of or relief from such deduction or withholding). Each Party agrees to cooperate with the other Parties in claiming refunds or exemptions from such deductions or withholdings under any relevant agreement or treaty which is in effect to ensure that any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to this Section 4.8(a) are reduced in amount to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(b) The parties acknowledge and agree that the Celgene Parties will not, absent a change in law or relevant circumstance between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, deduct or withhold from the amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.1(c) any amount in respect of any taxes provided that the Company provides the Celgene Parties with a properly completed and duly executed IRS Form W-9.

(c) In the event that a liability is imposed by a taxing authority upon the Celgene Parties in respect of a failure to withhold on an amount payable under Section 2.1(c) (except to the extent that, if Celgene had withheld on such amounts, it would have been required to gross-up such amounts under Section 4.8(d)), then the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Celgene Parties from any and all liabilities, claims and losses with respect to such failure to withhold, provided that (1) the Celgene Parties shall notify the Company promptly upon the receipt of any claim from a taxing authority which might give rise to an indemnification under this Section 4.8(c) (although the Celgene Parties’ delay in promptly notifying The Company shall only reduce the Company’s liability to indemnify the Celgene Parties to the extent that the Company is prejudiced by such delay); (2) the Company shall be entitled to participate, at its own expense, and with counsel of its choosing, in the defense of any claim which may give rise to liability under this Section; and (3) the Celgene Parties may not settle any liability with a Taxing Authority, to the extent such settlement would create a liability for the Company under this Section 4.8(c), without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d) Tax Gross-Up. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) a Paying Party redomiciles or assigns its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) as a result of such redomiciliation or assignment, such Paying Party (or its assignee) is required by applicable law to withhold taxes, and (iii) such withholding

 

24


taxes exceed the amount of withholding taxes that would have been applicable but for such redomiciliation or assignment, then any such amount payable shall be increased to take into account such withholding taxes as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings (including withholdings on the additional amounts payable), as the case may be, the Payee Party (or its assignee) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such increased withholding been made. The obligation to pay additional amounts pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not apply, however, to the extent such increased withholding tax (A) would not have been imposed but for the assignment by the Payee Party of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or the redomiciliation of such Payee Party outside of the United States, to the extent such assignment or redomiciliation occurs after the redomiciliation or assignment by the Paying Party described in the first sentence of this Section 4.8(d) or (B) are attributable to the failure by the Payee Party to comply with the requirements of Section 4.8(e). To the extent the Payee Party receiving additional amounts and the Payee Party’s Affiliates (for the avoidance of doubt, not including any deemed partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes arising out of a Juno Lead Co-Co Agreement or a Celgene Lead Co-Co Agreement), taken as a whole, actually realize an overall reduction in cash taxes otherwise due (determined on a with and without basis and taking into account the overall tax liability of the Payee Party’s affiliates) as a result of a foreign tax credit or a tax refund attributable to withholding taxes in respect of which the Payee Party received additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.8(d) (such reduction, a “Tax Benefit”), the Payee Party shall pay to the Paying Party that paid such additional amounts an amount equal to such Tax Benefit (but only to the extent of such additional amounts paid), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Payee Party and its affiliates in connection with the obtaining or receipt of such Tax Benefit. The foregoing sentence shall not be construed to require the Payee Party to make available its tax returns to the Paying Party. Furthermore, the Payee Party and its affiliates agree not to take any action (including any tax position) principally for the purpose of reducing the amount of the Tax Benefit. Solely for purposes of this Section 4.8(d), (X) a party’s “domicile” shall include its jurisdiction of incorporation or tax residence and a “redomiciliation” shall include a reincorporation or other action resulting in a change in tax residence of the applicable party or its assignee and (Y) Celgene RIVOT shall further be required under this Section 4.8(d) to gross-up the Payee (subject to the terms and conditions provided earlier in this paragraph) for any tax that would not be applicable had Celgene Corp. been the Payor Party.

(e) Tax Documentation. The Company has provided a properly completed and duly executed IRS Form W-9 to the Celgene Parties. Each Payee Party shall provide to the other party, at the time or times reasonably requested by such other parties or as required by applicable Law, such properly completed and duly executed documentation (for example, IRS Forms W-8 or W-9) as will permit payments made under this Agreement to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding for taxes.

Any Company FTU Notice, Company STU Notice, or Company TTU Notice shall be sent by facsimile, and any Purchase Notice shall be sent by e-mail (in each case with a copy by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service with next day delivery), and shall be deemed received by Company or the applicable Celgene Party, as applicable, upon the date of receipt Pacific Time of such facsimiles or e-mails, as applicable (whether or not such facsimile or e-mail, as applicable, is checked or read by the recipient), for purposes of determining the date of delivery of such notices hereunder.

The parties hereby acknowledge and agrees that the rights of the parties hereunder are special, unique and of extraordinary character, and that if any party refuses or otherwise fails to act, or to cause its Affiliates to act, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such refusal or failure would result in irreparable injury to the Company or the Celgene Parties, as the case may be, the exact amount of which would be difficult to ascertain or estimate and the remedies at law for which would not be reasonable or adequate compensation. Accordingly, if any party refuses or otherwise fails to act, or to cause its Affiliates to act, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then, in addition to any other remedy which may be available to any damaged party at law or in equity, such damaged party will be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive relief, without posting bond or other security, and without the necessity of proving actual or threatened damages, which remedy such damaged party will be entitled to seek in any court of competent jurisdiction.
