1. | BACKGROUND |
Stanford has an assignment of an invention of a technology to insert a gene or genes of interest without disrupting the target gene. It is co-owned with the University of Texas and entitled Using Homologous Recombination to Create Genetically Engineered Cells for Cell and Gene Based Therapy, was invented in the laboratories of Professor Matthew Porteus and Professor Mark Kay, and is described in Stanford Docket S11-451 (Gene Insertion Technology). The Gene Insertion Technology was made in the course of research supported by the Carter Foundation. Stanford will only be licensing its rights in this jointly owned Gene Insertion Technology to LogicBio.
Stanford has another assignment of a related invention that is a method for site-specific gene targeting that does not require nucleases. It is entitled Gene Targeting Without Nucleases, was invented in the laboratory of Professor Mark Kay, and is described in Stanford Docket S14-131 (Gene Targeting Technology, and collectively with the Gene Insertion Technology, the Gene Technology or GT). The Gene Targeting Technology was made in the course of research supported by the National Institutes of Health.
Stanford has an assignment of three inventions of novel AAV vectors with new and improved properties. They are entitled Novel AAV capsids with new transduction and nonimmune properties, which includes LK03, described in Stanford Docket S06-098, Chimeric AAV Capsids for High Efficiency Nucleic Acid Transfer, described in Stanford Docket S11-298, and Novel AAV Capsid, NP-59, described in Stanford Docket S15-305 (collectively, Vector Technology or VT). The Vector Technology was invented in the laboratory of Professor Mark Kay and made in the course of research supported by the National Institutes of Health.
Stanford wants to have the Gene Technology and the Vector Technology perfected and marketed as soon as possible so that resulting products may be available for public use and benefit.
Stanford and LogicBio entered into the Exclusive (Equity) Agreement, dated as of December 18, 2015 (the Prior Agreement, and such date, the Effective Date), pursuant to which Stanford granted LogicBio a license under the Gene Technology and Vector Technology, subject to the terms of the Prior Agreement.

EXECUTION VERSION
It is further agreed and notwithstanding the above provisions of this Section 7.7, in the event LogicBio receives a milestone payment from a sublicensee under a Sublicense and the milestone event giving rise to such milestone payment also triggers a payment obligation on the part of LogicBio under this Section 7.7, LogicBio shall be obligated to pay Stanford only a single payment, such payment to be the higher of the applicable milestone payment set forth in this Section 7.7 and the payment owing to Stanford under Section 4.7 as applicable, with respect to such milestone payment from such sublicensee.
7.8 | Earned Royalty. LogicBio will pay Stanford earned royalties on annual Net Sales as follows: |
Annual Net Sales of Licensed Product |
Royalty Rate | |||
< $[***] |
[***] | % | ||
> $[***], < $[***] |
[***] | % | ||
> $[***], < $[***] |
[***] | % | ||
> $[***], < $[***] |
[***] | % | ||
> $[***] |
[***] | % |
Notwithstanding the above, the royalty rate for Licensed Products that are not Licensed Capsid Products sold in the [***] Field of Use and that (i) are covered only by a Valid Claim of a VT Licensed Patent shall be [***]% of the applicable royalty rate set forth in this Section 7.8 above that would otherwise have been payable to Stanford for such Licensed Products; and (ii) are Material Products only shall be [***]% of the applicable royalty rate set forth in this Section 7.8 above that would otherwise have been payable to Stanford for such Licensed Products. For clarity, if a Licensed Capsid Product is sold both within and outside the [***] Field of Use, then the royalty step-downs set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall apply to such Licensed Capsid Product, as applicable, solely to the extent such Licensed Capsid Product is used or sold outside the [***] Field of Use.
7.9 | Earned Royalty if LogicBio Challenges the Patent. Notwithstanding the above, should LogicBio bring an action seeking to invalidate any Licensed Patent, LogicBio will pay royalties to Stanford at the rate of [***]% of the Net Sales of all Licensed Products sold during the pendency of such action. Moreover, should the outcome of such action determine that any claim of a patent challenged by LogicBio is both valid and infringed by a Licensed Product, LogicBio will pay royalties at the rate [***]% of the Net Sales of all Licensed Products sold. |

EXECUTION VERSION
7.10 | Combination Product. In the event that a Licensed Product is sold in combination with another product, component or service for which no royalty would be due hereunder if sold separately, Net Sales from such combination sales for purposes of calculating the amounts due under this Article 7 shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the combination product or service by the fraction A/(A + B), where A is the average gross selling price during the preceding calendar quarter of the Licensed Product sold separately and B is the average gross selling price during the preceding calendar quarter of the other product(s), component(s) or service(s). In the event that separate sales of the Licensed Product and/or of the other product(s), component(s) or service(s) were not made during the preceding calendar quarter, then the Net Sales on the combination product shall be reasonably allocated between such Licensed Product, and such other product(s), component(s) or service(s) based upon their relative importance and proprietary protection as mutually agreed upon by Stanford and LogicBio. |
7.11 | Single Royalty. No more than one royalty payment under this Agreement shall be due to Stanford with respect to a sale of a particular Licensed Product. Multiple royalties shall not be payable because any Licensed Product, or its manufacture, sale or use, is covered by more than one claim within the GT Licensed Patent and VT Licensed Patent. No royalty shall be payable under Section 7.8 with respect to sales or other transfers of Licensed Products among LogicBio, its affiliates and sublicensees for resale (but the subsequent resale of such Licensed Product shall be included within the computation of Net Sales). |
7.12 | Royalty Stacking. If, during the term of this Agreement, LogicBio, its affiliates, or sublicensees makes payments to for any technology or intellectual property rights necessary for the manufacturing and/or selling of a Licensed Product, [***]% of any payments made under such license(s) shall be deductible from any royalty payments due to Stanford; provided that the amount of royalty payable to Stanford in any calendar year with respect to any such Licensed Product shall not be reduced under this Section 7.12, to less than[***]%. |
7.13 | Creditable Payments. The license maintenance fee for a year may be offset against earned royalty payments due on Net Sales occurring in that year. |
For example:
(A) | if LogicBio pays Stanford a $10 maintenance payment for year Y, and according to Section 7.8 $15 in earned royalties are due Stanford for Net Sales in year Y, LogicBio will only need to pay Stanford an additional $5 for that years earned royalties. |
(B) | if LogicBio pays Stanford a $10 maintenance payment for year Y, and according to Section 7.8 $3 in earned royalties are due Stanford for Net Sales in year Y, LogicBio will not need to pay Stanford any earned royalty payment for that year. LogicBio will not be able to offset the remaining $7 against a future years earned royalties. |

Commencing upon expiration of the applicable royalty term described in this Section 7.14 above, the licenses granted to LogicBio for the applicable Licensed Product will become perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free and fully paid-up. Nonetheless, if certain Licensed Products are made, used, imported, or offered for sale before the date this Agreement terminates, and those Licensed Products are sold after the termination date, LogicBio will pay Stanford an earned royalty for its exercise of rights based on the Net Sales of those Licensed Products. |
7.15 | No Escrow. LogicBio shall not pay royalties into any escrow or other similar account. |
7.16 | Currency. LogicBio will calculate the royalty on sales in currencies other than U.S. Dollars using the appropriate foreign exchange rate for the currency quoted by the Wall Street Journal on the close of business on the last banking day of each calendar quarter. LogicBio will make royalty payments to Stanford in U.S. Dollars. |
7.17 | Non-U.S. Taxes. LogicBio will pay all non-U.S. taxes related to royalty payments. These payments are not deductible from any payments due to Stanford. |
7.18 | Interest. Any payments not made when due will bear interest at the lower of (a) the Prime Rate published in the Wall Street Journal plus [***] basis points or (b) the maximum rate permitted by law. |
8. | ROYALTY REPORTS, PAYMENTS, AND ACCOUNTING |
8.1 | Quarterly Earned Royalty Payment and Report. Beginning with the first sale of a Licensed Product by LogicBio, its affiliate, or a sublicensee or the first grant of a Sublicense, whichever is first, LogicBio will submit to Stanford a written report (even if there are no sales or Sublicenses) and an earned royalty payment and a Nonroyalty Sublicensing Consideration payment (if applicable) within [***] days after the end of each calendar quarter. This report will be in the form of Appendix D and will state the number, description, and aggregate Net Sales of Licensed Product during the completed calendar quarter and details about any Sublicenses. The report will include an overview of the process and documents relied upon to permit Stanford to understand how the earned royalties and Nonroyalty Sublicensing Consideration payment are calculated. With each report LogicBio will include any earned royalty payment and Nonroyalty Sublicensing Consideration payment due Stanford for the completed calendar quarter (as calculated under Article 7 and Section 4.6). |

8.3 | Termination Report. LogicBio will pay to Stanford all applicable unpaid royalties accrued as of the date of termination and submit to Stanford a written report within [***] days after the license terminates. LogicBio will continue to submit earned royalty payments and reports to Stanford after the license terminates, until all Licensed Products made or imported under the license have been sold. |
8.4 | Accounting. LogicBio will maintain records showing (a) LogicBios annual research and development efforts with respect to the Nominated Tissues and Active Indications for three years following the end of the applicable year and (b) manufacture, importation, sale, and use of a Licensed Product for [***] years from the date of sale of that Licensed Product. Records under the foregoing clause (b) will include general-ledger records showing cash receipts and expenses, and records that include: production records, customers, invoices, serial numbers, and related information in sufficient detail to enable Stanford to determine the royalties payable under this Agreement. |
8.5 | Audit by Stanford. Upon reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours LogicBio will allow Stanford or its designee to examine LogicBios records kept in accordance with Section 8.4 to verify LogicBios diligence obligations with respect to the Nominated Tissues and Active Indications and payments made by LogicBio under this Agreement. |
8.6 | Paying for Audit. Stanford will pay for any audit done under Section 8.5. But if the audit reveals an underreporting of earned royalties due Stanford of [***]% or more for the period being audited, LogicBio will pay the audit costs. |
8.7 | Self-audit. LogicBio will conduct an independent audit of sales and royalties at least every 2 years if annual sales of Licensed Product are over $[***]. The audit will address, at a minimum, the amount of gross sales by or on behalf of LogicBio during the audit period, the amount of funds owed to Stanford under this Agreement, and whether the amount owed has been paid to Stanford and is reflected in the records of LogicBio. LogicBio will submit the auditors report promptly to Stanford upon completion. LogicBio will pay for the entire cost of the audit. |
