WHEREAS:

 

(A)             The Parties entered into a License Agreement dated as of April 4, 2006, (the “License Agreement”), which was amended on July 13, 2006, pursuant to which the Licensee obtained an exclusive license to the UHN's ownership rights in the Technology as defined in the License Agreement;

(E)              Amorfix agrees upon validation of the URN Epitopes, similar to DSE1, to make Milestone Payments in Accordance with Schedule C;

 

 

 

 

NOW THEREFORE THIS AMENDMENT WITNESSES that in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements and covenants herein contained (the receipt and adequacy of such consideration being mutually acknowledged by each Party), the Parties covenant and agree as follows:

 

1.Replace Schedule A with Amended Schedule A attached hereto, thereby to add reference to the PCT patent application filed March 5, 2006, for “Methods and Compositions to Treat and Detect Misfolded SOD1 Mediated Disorders”, to the US counterpart thereof, and to priority applications referenced therein, and to update the schedule with respect to the originally identified US provisional application.

 

2.Replace Schedule C with Amended Schedule C attached hereto, thereby to set out the consideration for Improvements identified in new Schedule D;

 

3.Add Schedule D to identify, as Improvements, the disease specific epitopes designated DSE4 and DSE7.

 

4.In Article 2.4, insert -- on Schedule D and -- after “...these Improvements will be included”.

 

New Article 2.4 now reads:

 

Improvements by UHN. UHN will notify the Licensee, in writing, of all ALS-related Improvements related to the Technology or arising from the Funded Research within fourteen (14) days from the date of a UHN Invention Disclosure (“Notice of Disclosure”). Licensee will have sixty (60) days after receiving the written Notice of Disclosure to notify UHN its intent, in writing, to license said improvement (“Notice of Intent”). If UHN does not receive a Notice of Intent within sixty (60) days, UHN will be free to dispose of the Improvement by UHN as it sees fit. After a Notice of Intent has been received, an Amendment shall be made such that these Improvements will be included on Schedule D and under the definition of Technology and terms hereunder. In the event that the technologies that are not ALS-related arose from Funded Research, Licensee shall have the first right of refusal to negotiate a new license within sixty (60) days from a written notice of UHN Invention Disclosure. Any such license shall be on terms and conditions that are consistent with other such licenses within the industry and satisfactory to UHN.

 

This Amendment may be executed in as many counterparts as may be necessary or by facsimile and each such counterpart agreement or facsimile so executed shall be deemed to be an original and such counterparts and facsimile copies together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
