ARTICLE 16

CONFIDENTIALITY; INSIDER TRADING

16.1

Definition. “Confidential Information” means any scientific, technical, trade, or business information which is disclosed by one Party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other (“Receiving Party”) and which is treated by the Disclosing Party as confidential or proprietary. Confidential Information does not include information that (a) is in possession of the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure, as reasonably demonstrated by written records and without obligation of confidentiality; (b) is part of the public domain at the time of the Receiving Party’s public disclosure through no fault of the Receiving Party; (c) is received by the Receiving Party from a third party who has no obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party; or (d) is developed independently by the Receiving Party without use of, reference to, or reliance upon the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. The Disclosing Party will, to the extent practical, use reasonable efforts to label or identify as confidential, at the time of disclosure all such Confidential Information that is disclosed in writing or other tangible form. Confidential Information of HOVIONE includes, but is not limited to, HOVIONE’s Background Intellectual Property, HOVIONE’s Technology, and HOVIONE’s Improvements, whether or not labeled confidential. Confidential Information of ACHAOGEN includes, but is not limited to, ACHAOGEN’s Background Intellectual Property, ACHAOGEN’s Technology, and Refinements, whether or not labeled confidential. This Agreement shall be Confidential Information of both Parties.

16.2

Restrictions. The Receiving Party agrees (a) to keep confidential the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party and the terms of this Agreement; (b) not to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written consent of such Disclosing Party; and (c) to use such Confidential Information only as necessary to fulfill its obligations or in the reasonable exercise of rights granted to it hereunder. A Receiving Party, however, may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to its employees and consultants and to those of its Affiliates, in each case who have a specific need to know such Confidential Information and who are bound by a like obligation of confidentiality and restriction on use. Neither Party will use the other Party’s Confidential Information in support of regulatory filings without the express written consent of the other Party.

16.3

Compelled Disclosure. In the event that the Receiving Party is required (by oral questions, interrogatories, request for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar legal or regulatory process, or by rule of any stock exchange or listing entity) to disclose any of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the Receiving Party shall give the Disclosing Party prompt notice thereof so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order. Recipient shall

reasonably cooperate with the Disclosing Party in its efforts to seek such a protective order.

16.4

Term of Restriction. The obligations of the Receiving Party under this Agreement with respect to each item of Confidential Information that is subject to the nondisclosure and non-use provisions set forth above shall extend for a period of [***] from the date of initial disclosure to the Disclosing Party of such item; provided, however, that with respect to information provided (a) which constitutes chemical structures; or (b) which is in written form under this Agreement and specifically identified by the Disclosing Party as trade secret information, the Receiving Party’s obligations shall extend thereafter until such information no longer constitutes a trade secret under Applicable Laws.

16.5

No Public Disclosure. Except to the extent required by Applicable Laws or any rule of any stock exchange or listing entity and as otherwise provided in this ARTICLE 16, neither Party shall make any public statements or releases concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without obtaining the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, ACHAOGEN shall be free to use HOVIONE’s name and make mention of the existence of this Agreement as necessary or appropriate in connection with any regulatory filings, approvals, or other regulatory matters, and ACHAOGEN shall be free to disclose information concerning this Agreement as reasonably necessary to ensure and/or exercise its intellectual property rights under this Agreement, and in discussions relating to the Product with potential or actual collaborators/investors and counsel.

16.6

Insider Trading. The Receiving Party acknowledges that during the performance of this Agreement it may come into possession of certain material information about the Disclosing Party or its Affiliates that has not yet been disclosed to the public. The Receiving Party agrees to comply with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including those relating to insider trading, for as long as the Receiving Party is in the possession of such material, non-public information about the Disclosing Party or its Affiliates. The Receiving Party is hereby notified that it should not trade in securities of the Disclosing Party that might be issued in the future, either on its own behalf or on the behalf of others while in possession of any such material, non-public information.

ARTICLE 17

FORCE MAJEURE

17.1

Effects of Force Majeure. Except for the obligation to pay any amounts due under this Agreement, neither Party shall be held liable or responsible for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any of its obligations under this Agreement in case such failure or delay is due to any condition beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party including, without limitation, acts of God, acts of war or terrorism, fire, explosion, flood, earthquake, embargoes, shortages, epidemics, quarantines, civil commotion, strikes, or acts, omissions, or delays in acting, by any Governmental Authority (which acts,

omissions, or delays do not arise from such Party’s breach of this Agreement), and labor disputes (a “Force Majeure Event”). Such excuse shall continue as long as the Force Majeure Event continues. Upon cessation of such Force Majeure Event, such Party shall promptly resume performance hereunder.

17.2

Notice of Force Majeure Event. Each Party agrees to give the other Party written notice, promptly following its first knowledge of any Force Majeure Event, as to the nature thereof, and the extent to which the affected Party expects to be unable fully to perform its obligations hereunder. The Party experiencing any such Force Majeure Event further agrees (a) to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to promptly correct the Force Majeure Event; (b) to give the other Party periodic updates including notice when it expects to be fully able to perform such obligations; and (c) to continue to perform its obligations to the extent feasible given the Force Majeure Event. In the event a Force Majeure Event continues for more than [***], the non-affected Party may terminate this Agreement upon ten (10) days’ written notice. The Parties acknowledge and agree that in the event of a Force Majeure Event, if ACHAOGEN determines, based upon a convincing demonstration by HOVIONE, that HOVIONE can fulfill its obligations hereunder through the use of an alternate facility owned by HOVIONE at no additional cost to ACHAOGEN or delay relative to ACHAOGEN’s or its Affiliates’ market inventory needs, then HOVIONE may use such facility until such Force Majeure Event has been resolved.

Manufacture of the Product, HOVIONE shall notify ACHAOGEN as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than [***] (by telephone, and if possible, in writing) upon learning of such inspection. HOVIONE shall provide ACHAOGEN (which ACHAOGEN will provide to BARDA) with electronic copies of all written materials and correspondence received from or sent to the FDA or other U.S. Government agency relating to any such inspection; provided however, that the documentation contains information relating to any of HOVIONE’s manufacturing process(es) used in the Manufacture of the Product or which may have an effect on HOVIONE’s ability to supply the Product to ACHAOGEN (“Relevant Information”) and provided further, that HOVIONE may redact any information that does not qualify as Relevant Information. To the extent reasonably practicable, HOVIONE shall share with ACHAOGEN drafts of any written materials in advance of submitting such materials to the FDA or other U.S. Government agency so as to allow for review and comment by ACHAOGEN and/or BARDA. The Parties shall consult regarding the nature, extent, duration, and possible impact of such inspection on the development and manufacture of the Product so as to determine whether ACHAOGEN and/or BARDA may have an interest to send representatives to the Facility and be present for any part of such inspection.

20.4

All BARDA requirements applicable to HOVIONE as contained in this Agreement shall only be applicable for so long as ACHAOGEN has ongoing obligations to BARDA.  ACHAOGEN agrees to notify HOVIONE as soon as reasonably practicable for any BARDA requirements that are no longer applicable after commercial launch of the Product.
