Item 14. Indemnification of directors and officers
Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), because he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section 145(b) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor because the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which he or she shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
 
II-1

corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, he or she is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court shall deem proper.
Section 145(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, in general, that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the person against such liability under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Article VII of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter”), provides that no director of our company shall be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) in respect of unlawful dividend payments or stock redemptions or repurchases, or (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. In addition, our Charter provides that if the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the liability of directors, then the liability of a director of our company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as so amended.
Article VII of the Charter further provides that any repeal or modification of such article by our stockholders or amendment to the Delaware General Corporation Law will not adversely affect any right or protection existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring before such repeal or modification of a director serving at the time of such repeal or modification.
Article V of our amended and restated by-laws (the “By-Laws”), provides that we will indemnify each of our directors and officers and, in the discretion of our board of directors, certain employees, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law as the same may be amended (except that in the case of amendment, only to the extent that the amendment permits us to provide broader indemnification rights than the Delaware General Corporation Law permitted us to provide prior to such the amendment) against any and all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts reasonably paid in settlement that are incurred by the director, officer or such employee or on the director’s, officer’s or employee’s behalf in connection with any threatened, pending or completed proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, to which he or she is or is threatened to be made a party because he or she is or was serving as a director, officer or employee of our company, or at our request as a director, partner, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of our company and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Article V of the By-Laws further provides for the advancement of expenses to each of our directors and, in the discretion of the board of directors, to certain officers and employees.
 
II-2

In addition, Article V of the By-Laws provides that the right of each of our directors and officers to indemnification and advancement of expenses shall be a contract right and shall not be exclusive of any other right now possessed or hereafter acquired under any statute, provision of the Charter or By-Laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or otherwise. Furthermore, Article V of the By-Laws authorizes us to provide insurance for our directors, officers and employees, against any liability, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the Delaware General Corporation Law or the provisions of Article V of the By-Laws.
In connection with the sale of common stock being registered hereby, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and our executive officers. These agreements will provide that we will indemnify each of our directors and such officers to the fullest extent permitted by law and the Charter and By-Laws.
We also maintain a general liability insurance policy which covers certain liabilities of directors and officers of our company arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.
In any underwriting agreement we enter into in connection with the sale of common stock being registered hereby, the underwriters will agree to indemnify, under certain conditions, us, our directors, our officers and persons who control us within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, against certain liabilities.
Item 15. Recent sales of unregistered securities
In the three years preceding the filing of this registration statement, we have issued the following securities that were not registered under the Securities Act:
Grants and modifications of warrants
In May 2007, December 2007, May 2008, August 2008, December 2008, April 2009, July 2009, October 2009 and December 2009, we issued warrants to purchase 1,133,100, 472,124, 472,124, 472,124, 472,124, 321,044, 321,044, 283,274, and 574,800 shares, respectively, of either (i) our Series A-1 Preferred Stock or (ii) such preferred stock that we may issue in a subsequent qualified financing. In March 2010, in connection with the Series B Preferred Stock financing, the 2007, 2008 and the April, July and October 2009 warrants were amended to provide that such warrants would be exercisable only for shares of our Series A-1 Preferred Stock at a per share price of $0.6619 and the December 2009 warrants were amended to provide that such warrants would be exercisable only for shares of our Series B Preferred Stock at a per share price of $0.3262. The warrant issuances were exempt pursuant to Section 4(2), as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. The shares of preferred stock issued upon exercise of warrants and the shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the preferred stock are deemed restricted securities for the purposes of the Securities Act.
Grants and exercises of stock options
Since January 1, 2010, we have granted stock options to purchase an aggregate of 74,066,242 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.05 to $0.43. Since January 1, 2010, we have issued an aggregate of 568,246 shares of our common stock upon exercise of stock options granted pursuant to our 2002 Employee, Director and Consultant Plan and our 2010 Stock Option and Grant Plan for aggregate consideration of $61,394.
 
II-3

The option grants and the issuances of common stock upon exercise of the options were exempt either pursuant to Rule 701, as a transaction pursuant to a compensatory benefit plan, or pursuant to Section 4(2), as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. The shares of common stock issued upon exercise of options are deemed restricted securities for the purposes of the Securities Act.
Issuances of capital stock
Since January 1, 2010, we have granted and issued an aggregate of 7,327,566 shares of our common stock pursuant to our 2010 Stock Option and Grant Plan. The issuances of common stock were exempt either pursuant to Rule 701, as a transaction pursuant to a compensatory benefit plan, or pursuant to Section 4(2), as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. The shares of common stock issued pursuant to our 2010 Stock Option and Grant Plan are deemed restricted securities for the purposes of the Securities Act.
In March 2010, we issued an aggregate of 61,555,660 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock for aggregate consideration of $16.8 million in cash and $3.3 million in converted bridge notes to five investors. In April 2011, we issued an aggregate of 53,648,066 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock at a price per share of $0.3262 for aggregate consideration of $17.5 million to the same five investors. In April 2011, we issued an aggregate of 39,942,483 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock at a price per share of $0.37554 to five investors for aggregate consideration of $15.0 million to the same five investors. In July 2012, we issued an aggregate of 120,409,385 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock at a price per share of $0.4983 for aggregate consideration of $60.0 million to 17 investors. These preferred stock issuances were exempt under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as transactions not involving a public offering.
Item 16. Exhibits and financial statement schedules
(a) Exhibits
See the Exhibit Index attached to this Registration Statement, which is incorporated by reference herein.
(b) Financial statement schedules
Schedules not listed above have been omitted because the information required to be set forth therein is not applicable or is shown in the financial statements or notes thereto.
Item 17. Undertakings
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
 
II-4

Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
 	1.	 	For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.	
 
 	2.	 	For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

SECOND AMENDMENT
WHEREAS the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (“MIT”) and Genetix Pharmaceuticals Inc. of Cambridge, Massachusetts (“Genetix” or “Company,” formerly Innogene Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) are parties to the Patent License Agreement (“License Agreement”) entered into on December 18, 1996; and
WHEREAS Genetix currently lacks sufficient cash funds to substantially advance the development of its lead product candidate LentiGlobin™ which incorporates technology subject to the License Agreement or to make further payments under the License Agreement which could become due; and
WHEREAS Genetix has entered into a subsequent letter agreement (“Letter Agreement”) with MIT dated April 9, 2004 and providing for conditional retraction of MIT’s earlier Letter of Termination upon a financing of Genetix and certain payments by Genetix to MIT, as well as a further agreement (“First Amendment”) dated December 12, 2003 amending the License Agreement to incorporate certain new technology and payments by Genetix; and
WHEREAS Genetix’ lead product in development, LentiGlobin™, incorporates multiple technologies requiring licenses from multiple parties each bearing royalty, license fee, and sublicensing terms which are substantial and in the case of sublicensing terms are prohibitive in and of themselves, and Genetix now anticipates requirement for an additional license from at least one further party; and
WHEREAS [***]; and
WHEREAS Genetix has not entered into any sublicense under the License Agreement nor has it initiated negotiation of such a sublicense; and
WHEREAS Genetix desires to realize the equity investment so that it may continue operations and advance LentiGlobin™ into human clinical trials, and Genetix has therefore proposed to MIT to amend Section 4.1.d of the License Agreement to eliminate the requirement for certain payments to made pursuant to future sublicenses, for the satisfaction of new investors; and

BACKGROUND
 
A.	LICENSEE is a biotechnology company which is doing business in the field of gene therapy. It has offices in the US and in France.	
 
B.	INSERM-TRANSFERT is INSERM’s wholly owned technology transfer subsidiary, created by a French decree in June 6, 2000. Effective January 1 st  2006, INSERM delegated to INSERM-TRANSFERT the management of its technology transfer activities. Accordingly INSERM-TRANSFERT is empowered to negotiate, sign and manage license agreements including the present agreement.	
 
C.	LICENSEE wishes to obtain a license from INSERM-TRANSFERT to the Patents and the related Know How (as these terms are defined hereunder), and INSERM-TRANSFERT is willing to grant LICENSEE such a license, all on the terms and conditions set forth below. The Parties entered into a Term Sheet N° 07554F10 for a license agreement on April 18, 2008, which detailed part of the conditions of the present agreement.	
 
D.	In parallel to such discussions, the Parties and INSERM have also been discussing the execution of a collaborative research agreement (N° 07554F20).	
Considering the Parties’ common interests, they decided to enter into this Patent and Know-How License Agreement concurrently with said “collaborative research agreement N° 07554F20”.
The Parties wish to state in this preamble that the financing undertaking by LICENSEE was one of causes which led INSERM-TRANSFERT to sign both of these agreements (this Patent and Know-How Licence Agreement and the collaborative research agreement N° 07554F20); this is the reason why, should LICENSEE fail to perform its financing undertaking, INSERM-TRANSFERT will be provided with certain rights and obligations on the research programs and results therefrom in the conditions more fully detailed herein in order to seek a new partner to finalize the works and the files so as to obtain the marketing authorizations for the medicines in connection with the LentiD for Adrenoleukodystrohpy therapies.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, conditions and undertakings herein contained, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

This includes all data generated before the collaboration between INSERM and [***].
“Net Sales” shall mean the amount of sales, excluding taxes, of the Products (in all its forms) invoiced to third parties, including distributors, by LICENSEE or its Affiliates, less any customary COGS, SG&A marketing, sales distribution costs, normal trade discounts and credit notes issued in respect of returned Products in each country of the Territory. It is understood that the deductions shall not exceed [***]. In case LICENSEE could prove that the costs incurred by LICENSEE to sell Products are much higher than the deductions allowed in this Agreement, the Parties shall discuss to re-evaluate the percentage of deductions allowed.
Net Sales shall not include intermediate sales between LICENSEE and its Affiliate or its Affiliates between them. Net Sales shall only include the sales between the Affiliates (or LICENSEE) and third parties (and not the sales between LICENSEE and its Affiliates or its Affiliates between them).

In case the Laboratory fails in carrying out its part of the research program of the “collaborative research agreement N° 07554F20”, this license authorizes LICENSEE to use the Patents and Know-How to conduct research alone or with any third party for the purpose of developing, make, have made, use and sell or otherwise distribute Products within the Field as described herein.
In the event that LICENSEE shall develop a Product and/or in the event that a result of any nature, whether patentable or not, is discovered and/or developed by LICENSEE, independently from its collaboration with INSERM and/or INSERM TRANSFERT within the “collaborative research agreement N° 07554F20”, the Parties agree that such Product and/or result shall belong exclusively to LICENSEE and that any new patent in relation thereto shall be filed by LICENSEE.
 
1.2	INSERM reserves the right to use the Patent and the related Know-How for educational, clinical and preclinical studies purposes.	
ARTICLE 2 - DURATION
The Agreement is effective as of its last date of signature and shall last until the expiration on a country by country basis of the last to expire of any patent encompassed within the scope of the Patent or ten (10) years from the date of the first commercial sale of a Product whichever is later.
ARTICLE 3 - SUBLICENSE
Prior to the execution of any sublicense, LICENSEE shall provide INSERM-TRANSFERT written notification of the identity and address of the potential Sublicensee for approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withhold. Should not INSERM-TRANSFERT withhold the Sublicensee within thirty (30) days from LICENSEE notification, then the Sublicensee shall be deemed approved by INSERM-TRANSFERT.

Subject to any confidentiality obligation of LICENSEE, LICENSEE shall also notify INSERM-TRANSFERT with the terms of the sublicense for minimum information necessary for INSERM-TRANSFERT for internal reports, prior the signature of any sublicense.
Promptly following the execution of any sublicense, LICENSEE will communicate INSERM-TRANSFERT a signed copy of the agreement (possibly with some blank on information having to stay confidential between LICENSEE and Sublicensee).
For the avoidance of doubt, INSERM-TRANSFERT acknowledges that the terms of the sublicense and the sublicense agreement itself may be covered by a confidentiality obligation and that, as a consequence, the notification and communication obligations of LICENSEE described above may be subject to obtaining prior written consent of Sublicensee. In this respect, failure from Sublicensee to agree to such notification and communication of the sublicense terms and agreement to INSERM-TRANSFERT shall not give rise to any claim from INSERM-TRANSFERT and/or liability of LICENSEE.

For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing sublicensing fee shall be paid by LICENSEE only one time for each of LICENSEE’s commercial partners regardless of the number of Sublicenses necessary for LICENSEE’s relationship with such commercial partner (e.g., LICENSEE shall only pay one sublicensing fee in connection with granting a Sublicense to a commercial partner and a Sublicense to a contract manufacturing organization to manufacture Products for such commercial partner).”

Grant of License
2.1 Scope of License. Licensor hereby grants and Licensee hereby accepts a worldwide, exclusive license under the Licensed Patents to Make, Use or Sell Licensed Products. Except as provided herein, no other, further, or different license is hereby granted, either expressly or by implication.
2.2 Right to Sublicense. Licensor hereby grants and Licensee hereby accepts the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers to third parties to all or any portion of Licensee’s rights hereunder. Licensee shall, within thirty (30) days of the grant of each such sublicense, give written notice of such sublicenses to Licensor and provide Licensor with a copy thereof; provided that Licensee may redact those portions of such sublicenses that are not necessary for Licensor to determine whether Licensee is in compliance with its obligations under this Agreement. Licensee shall incorporate terms and conditions into its sublicense agreements sufficient to enable Licensee to comply with this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Licensor shall grant to a sublicensee that is not in material breach of its sublicense a direct license granting rights and terms equivalent to the sublicense rights and terms which Licensee previously granted to such sublicensee, provided that Licensor shall have no greater rights and obligations to any such sublicensee than Licensor has to Licensee under this Agreement.
2.3 Retained Rights. Licensor retains the right, on behalf of itself and other nonprofit academic research institutions, to practice and use the Licensed Patents for any academic, non-clinical research and educational purposes. Licensee agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, it has no right to enforce the Licensed Patents against any such practice or use by any such institution.
2.4 Government Rights. If any invention described and claimed in the Licensed Patents is developed with the support of federal research funds, Title 35, Sections 200-212 of the United States Code (the “Bayh-Dole Act”) shall apply. Among other things, the provisions of the Bayh-Dole Act provide the United States Government with non-exclusive rights in any inventions arising from the use of federal funds and also generally impose the obligation that any products embodying the subject invention or produced through the use of such invention be manufactured substantially in the United States. If and to the extent the Bayh-Dole Act is

applicable to any Licensed Patents, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the rights granted under this Agreement are subject to the applicable terms and conditions of the Bayh-Dole Act and that Licensee will ensure that all relevant obligations under the Bayh-Dole Act provisions are met.
ARTICLE III
Patents
3.1 Patent Applications. Licensor represents that it has timely filed patent applications relating to the Licensed Patents in the countries listed on Exhibit 1 hereto.
3.2 Patent Prosecution and Maintenance. Licensor will control the conduct, preparation, filing and prosecution of such patent applications within the Licensed Patents and will maintain any patents issued thereon, but will provide Licensee with copies of all office actions and responses thereto and will consider and take into account in good faith Licensee’s comments with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in the event that Licensor within its sole judgment and discretion determines that prosecution or maintenance of a patent in a particular country is not economically viable or otherwise feasible, Licensor shall promptly notify Licensee of Licensor’s intention to abandon such patent application or patent. Upon receipt of such notice, Licensee, in its sole discretion, may elect to assume responsibility (and to pay associated fees and expenses) with respect to a patent application or patent which Licensor intends to abandon. Licensee may, in its sole discretion, abandon any patent application or patent for which it has previously assumed responsibility and will not be liable to Licensor in any way for such abandonment.
3.3 Patent Costs. Licensee shall reimburse Licensor for [***] for filing, prosecuting and maintaining the Licensed Patents. Licensor shall invoice Licensee for such patent costs quarterly, and undisputed payments shall be made by Licensee within thirty (30) days after receipt of each invoice.
ARTICLE IV
Royalties and Other Consideration
4.1 License Fee. Licensee shall pay Licensor an up-front non-refundable license fee of [***] within ten (10) business days after the execution of this Agreement by the parties.
4.2 Royalty. Licensee shall pay Licensor an earned royalty of [***] on Net Sales of Licensed Product, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and country-by-country basis, where there is at least one Valid Claim of a Licensed Patent Covering such Licensed Product in such country at the time of first marketing approval. Such royalty shall continue until the longer of: (a) expiry or end of the last Valid Claim within a Licensed Patent that Covers a Licensed Product in such country, or (b) ten (10) years from the first marketing approval; provided that the royalty shall be reduced by [***] if payable under this clause (b) after the last Valid Claim

expires or ends during such ten (10) year period. For clarity, no royalty shall be owed on any Licensed Product not Covered by a Valid Claim under a Licensed Patent at the time of first marketing approval in the country in question, and further, under no circumstances shall any royalty be owed (during the term of this Agreement or thereafter) if all the Valid Claim(s) that Cover a Licensed Product in a country are held not valid, unenforceable or otherwise unpatentable. For clarity, in such event, royalties already paid by Licensee shall not be refunded by Licensor. Only one (1) royalty shall be payable on a Licensed Product, regardless of the number of Valid Claims or the number of patent applications and patents within the Licensed Patents under which such Licensed Product has been Made, Used or Sold.
4.3 Basis of Royalty Obligation. Royalty payments to be paid at the applicable rate(s) hereunder shall be paid on a Licensed Product by Licensed Product and country-by-country basis.
4.4 Limitation on Deductions from Royalty Payments. Wherever this Agreement provides that Licensee may deduct expenses, payments or other amounts from royalties payable to Licensor, such deduction shall be prorated over such time as is necessary to assure that the royalties payable to Licensor in any period shall not be reduced by more than [***].
4.5 Milestone Payments. In addition to the up-front license fee and royalties required under this Article IV, Licensee shall make milestone payments to Licensor as set forth in Exhibit 2 hereto. Such cash payments shall be delivered to Licensor within forty-five (45) days after the end of the calendar quarter in which each of the milestone payment events indicated on such exhibit occurs.
4.6 Marketing Arrangements. Where Licensed Products are sold by a third party other than Licensee or sublicensee under any type of commercial arrangement between Licensee (or sublicensee) and such third party (including, without limitation, a joint venture, distributorship, or collaboration agreement), Net Sales for earned royalty purposes shall be calculated based on the gross sales of Licensed Products by such third party.
ARTICLE V
Reports and Payments

 	4	SUBLICENSING	
 
 	4.1	Permitted Sublicensing. BBB may grant sublicenses to its rights under this Agreement in the Licensed Field of Use to third parties. Such Sublicensees may then grant further sublicenses to other third parties for the purpose of the development, manufacturing, marketing, selling, importing and distribution of Licensed Products; provided however that (i) Sublicensees shall first submit to Stanford the identity of such other third party, along with a summary of the purpose for such further sublicense and (ii) Stanford shall then provide Sublicensee its prompt, prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonable withheld or conditioned.	
 
 	4.2	Sublicense Requirements. Any Sublicense:	
 
 	(A)	is subject to this Agreement;	
 
 	(B)	will expressly include the provisions of Articles 8, 9, and 10 for the benefit of Stanford; and	
 
 	(C)	will require the transfer of all the sublicensee’s obligations to BBB specifically relating to the sublicense, including the payment of royalties related to the Biological Material specified in the sublicense, to Stanford or its designee, if this Agreement is terminated.	
 
 	(D)	BBB will submit to Stanford a copy of each sublicense promptly following execution.	
 
 	4.3	Sublicense Consideration. BBB will pay Stanford a [***] payment in consideration of said sublicense, unless such sublicense is to a collaborating partner, contract manufacturer or contract research organization during the term of the agreement between BBB and such partner/contractor. If sublicensee already has a license for the research use of the Biological Material, said milestone payment will be reduced to [***]. If the sublicensee already has a license for the commercial use of the Biological Material, said milestone payment will not be due.	
 
 	5	GOVERNMENT RIGHTS	
This Agreement is subject to Title 35 Sections 200-204 of the United States Code. Among other things, these provisions provide the United States Government with nonexclusive rights to the Biological Material. BBB will ensure all obligations of these provisions are met.
 
 	6	ROYALTIES	
 
 	6.1	Issue Royalty. BBB will pay to Stanford a noncreditable, nonrefundable license issue royalty of [***] within thirty (30) days after signing this Agreement. Upon receipt of payment, Stanford will send Biological Material to BBB.

[***]
[***]
[***]
Yearly maintenance payments are nonrefundable, but they are creditable each year as described in Section 6.4.
 
 	6.3	Earned Royalty. BBB will pay Stanford earned royalties on Net Sales as follows:	
Licensed Products for Research Use [***] of Net Sales
Licensed Products for human and animal lentivirus based gene therapy products:
[***]
[***]
These percentages shall be reduced by [***] for each third party license that requires payment(s) by BBB with respect to a Licensed Products; provided however, the royalty owed to Stanford under this Section 6.3 shall not be less than [***] on this basis.
 
 	6.4	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 BBB pays Stanford a $10 maintenance payment for year Y, and according to Section 6.3 $15 in earned royalties are due Stanford for Net Sales in year Y, BBB will only need to pay Stanford an additional $5 for that year’s earned royalties due on Net Sales.	
 
 	(B)	if BBB pays Stanford a $10 maintenance payment for year Y, and according to Section 6.3 $3 in earned royalties are due Stanford for Net Sales in year Y, BBB will not need to pay Stanford any earned royalty payment due on Net Sales for that year. BBB will not be able to offset the remaining $7 against a future year’s earned royalties.	
 
 	6.5	No Escrow. BBB shall not pay royalties into any escrow or other account.	
 
 	6.6	Currency. BBB 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 Bank of America (San Francisco) foreign exchange desk, on the close of business on the last banking day of each calendar quarter. BBB will make royalty payments to Stanford in U.S. Dollars.	
 
 	6.7	Non-U.S. Taxes. BBB will pay all non-U.S. taxes related to royalty payments. These payments are not deductible from any payments due to Stanford.

Beginning with the first commercial sale of a Licensed Product to a third party, BBB will submit to Stanford a written report (even if there are no commercial sales) and an earned royalty payment within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar year [***], and within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar quarter thereafter. This report will be in the form of Appendix A and will state the number, description, and aggregate Net Sales of Licensed Product during the completed calendar quarter. With each report BBB will include any earned royalty payment due Stanford for the completed calendar quarter (as calculated under Section 6.3 and subject to Section 6.4.)

2.	Collaboration Program.	
 
 	2.1	Collaboration Program.	
(a) General. During the Collaboration Program Term, the Parties will conduct the Collaboration Program on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement to identify, research and Develop Product Candidates. [***] Under the Collaboration Program, Bluebird will be responsible for all research and Development activities performed through completion of the initial Phase 1 Study with respect to each Product Candidate, and Celgene will be a critical advisor for oncology drug development, ex vivo human cell processing, assay development and release testing. Bluebird will keep Celgene reasonably informed of Bluebird’s research and Development activities and will reasonably consult with Celgene and reasonably consider Celgene’s comments and advice with respect to all material decisions relating to such activities. Research and Development activities of the Parties with respect to the Collaboration Program will be described in a “ Collaboration Plan ,” an initial version of which is attached hereto as Exhibit D . Any modifications or amendments to the Collaboration Plan that are proposed by either Party will be subject to review by the JSC pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Section 3.2(d) and to the prior written approval of both Parties. The specific Target Antigens that will be the focus of the Collaboration Program will be defined as soon as practicable [***], and will be set forth in a Collaboration Plan amendment. The selection of Product Candidates for additional work under the Collaboration Program will be subject to the oversight and supervision of the JSC, provided that if the JSC is unable to unanimously agree with respect to the selection of a Product Candidate for additional work under the Collaboration Program, either Party may, by written notice to the other Party, have such dispute referred to the Bluebird CEO and the Celgene CEO or in either case his or her designee (who will be a senior executive), who will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute by negotiation and consultation [***], and if not so resolved, Bluebird will have the tie-breaking vote, provided that if a Business Combination has occurred with respect to Bluebird, Celgene will have the tie-breaking vote.
(b) Obligations Under the Collaboration Plan. Each Party will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to perform (itself or through its Affiliates or by permitted subcontracting pursuant to Section 2.4) its respective obligations under the Collaboration Plan, and will cooperate with and provide reasonable support to the other Party in such other Party’s performance of its responsibilities under the Collaboration Plan. The Collaboration Plan will not assign to Celgene, and Bluebird will not request that Celgene perform, any research or Development activity that would require a sublicense under any Bluebird In-License. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collaboration Plan assigns to Celgene, or Bluebird requests that Celgene perform, any such research or Development activity, Bluebird will be responsible for any and all obligations to its licensors under any Bluebird In-License that arise out of such research or Development. The Parties acknowledge and agree, however, that no outcome or success is or can be assured and that failure to achieve desired results will not in and of itself constitute a breach or default of any obligation in this Agreement (notwithstanding the focus of the Collaboration Program described above).
(c) Celgene Manufacturing. In the event the Parties mutually agree that, as a part of the Collaboration Program, Celgene will build and operate a cGMP suite for the processing of Product Candidates which incorporate Vectors and associated Payloads supplied by Bluebird, the

Parties will enter into such additional agreements as may be necessary for Celgene to do so, including a Vector and Payload supply agreement. Prior to or during initial proof of concept studies, Celgene and Bluebird will mutually assess the capability for sole supply manufacture of Vector Supply, and agree to provisions to ensure the Manufacture and distribution, of Vector Supplies, in adequate quantities, of adequate quality, and in acceptable timeframes so as to not delay clinical Development and Commercialization of Product Candidates. Multiple sites may be required to supply and store inventories of Vector Supplies.
(d) Collaboration Program Term. Unless terminated or extended pursuant to the terms hereof, the term of the Collaboration Program will commence on the Effective Date and continue for an initial period of three (3) years (the “ Initial Collaboration Term ”). Celgene may elect to extend the Collaboration Program for (i) first, one additional two (2) year term (the “ First Collaboration Extension Term ”) and (ii) then next for one additional [***] term (the “ Second Collaboration Extension Term ”, and together with the Initial Collaboration Term and the First Collaboration Extension Term, if any, the “ Collaboration Program Term ”) by providing written notice to Bluebird of such election at least [***] prior to the expiration of the Initial Collaboration Term or First Collaboration Extension Term, as applicable, and payment of the applicable extension fees set forth in Section 8. Absent further agreement of the Parties, the maximum Collaboration Program Term (assuming Celgene elects both of the foregoing extensions) is [***].
(e) Relationship.
(i) During the Collaboration Program Term, neither Bluebird nor its Affiliates (nor any others on behalf of or with, or under license (including a covenant not to sue) or sublicense from, Bluebird or any its Affiliates) will research, Develop, Manufacture or commercialize any actual or potential products (including Vectors and associated Payloads) to be used in the Field other than as a part of the Collaboration Program, and other than with respect to Declined Product Candidates in accordance with Section 5.7. Notwithstanding this Section 2.1(e)(i), if (i) a Business Combination occurs with respect to Bluebird with a Third Party or (ii) Bluebird acquires a Third Party (including by a merger or consolidation) so that such Third Party becomes an Affiliate over which Bluebird has control (as defined in Section 1.1), or (iii) Bluebird acquires all or substantially all of the assets of a Third Party (including any subsidiaries or divisions thereof) (each of (i), (ii) and (iii), a “ Bluebird Acquisition ”), and, in each case, the Third Party (or any of such Third Party’s Affiliates or any successors or assigns of such Third Party or such Third Party’s Affiliates, other than Bluebird and its Affiliates as of the Bluebird Acquisition) (1) already has, or the acquired assets contain, as applicable, a program that existed prior to, or was planned prior to and is demonstrably to be implemented shortly after, the Bluebird Acquisition or (2) initiates and pursues a new program following such Bluebird Acquisition, in each case that would otherwise violate this Section 2.1(e)(i) (a “ Bluebird Business Program ”), then such Third Party (or any of such Third Party’s Affiliates or any successors or assigns of such Third Party or such Third Party’s Affiliates, other than Bluebird and its Affiliates as of the Bluebird Acquisition), as applicable, will be permitted to initiate, pursue and continue such Bluebird Business Program after such Bluebird Acquisition and such initiation, pursuit and continuation will not constitute a violation of this Section 2.1(e)(i); provided that (A) none of the Collaboration IP or other Patents, Materials or Know-How

Commercialization Agreement, and [***], in each case of (A) through (C), that are related to the Manufacture of Vectors, solely to research, Develop, Manufacture and commercialize Vectors, provided that (w) the foregoing license does not include any Patents and Know-How for Manufacturing (other than Manufacturing of Vectors), (x) [***] (y) during the Term and the term of any applicable Development & Commercialization Agreement, the foregoing license does not include the right to research, Develop, Manufacture or commercialize any Vectors that are used in connection with Optioned Candidates or Elected Candidates or Licensed Products under such Development & Commercialization Agreement, other than with and for Celgene, and (z) [***]. Further, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, upon written notice to Celgene, Bluebird may decline the taking of or terminate such sublicense from Celgene with respect to any Patents, Know-How or Materials that are in-licensed by Celgene pursuant to a Celgene New In-License that is an Applicable Celgene In-License. If any royalty, milestone or other payment, [***] becomes due under any Celgene New In-License that is attributable to Bluebird as a sublicensee thereunder with respect to such research, Development, Manufacture or commercialization of Vectors, Celgene will pay same, provided that Bluebird will reimburse Celgene for any such payment within thirty (30) days of Bluebird’s receipt of Celgene’s written invoice therefor, and Bluebird’s failure to pay such reimbursement within such time period will entitle Celgene to terminate Bluebird’s sublicense under the applicable Celgene New In-License upon thirty (30) days written notice. Upon Bluebird’s request, Celgene agrees to provide Bluebird with a copy of any Celgene New In-License that is an Applicable Celgene In-License under which Bluebird is granted a sublicense under this Section 2.1(h)(ii), which Celgene may reasonably redact (other than with respect to provisions applicable to the determination of Bluebird’s reimbursement obligations under this Section 2.1(h)(ii)).
(i) Celgene IP. If either Party desires that Celgene make available any Patents, Know-How or Material Controlled by Celgene or its Affiliates (other than pursuant to a Celgene In-License, which is governed by Section 4.1(c), and other than Collaboration IP) for use in the Collaboration Program, such Party will notify the JSC and the JSC will discuss whether or not such Patents, Know-How or Materials would be useful for the Collaboration Program. If the JSC concludes that such Patents, Know-How or Materials would be useful for the Collaboration Program, the JSC will invite Celgene to make such intellectual property available to the Collaboration Program. Celgene will have sole discretion whether or not to make such intellectual property available to the Collaboration Program, and if Celgene so elects it will make such intellectual property available by providing the JSC with written notice specifying the Patents, Know-How and/or Materials that will be made available to the Collaboration Program as “Celgene IP”. Except by such written notice provided to the JSC, no Patents, Know-How or Materials Controlled by Celgene or its Affiliates (other than pursuant to a Celgene In-License, which is governed by Section 4.1(c) and other than Collaboration IP) will be made available for, or used in, the Collaboration Program, and no such Patents, Know-How or Materials shall be considered “Celgene IP”.
2.2 Collaboration Program Expenses. Except for any amounts that may be payable by Celgene under a Vector and associated Payload supply agreement described in Section 2.1(c), each of Bluebird and Celgene is and will remain solely responsible for all of its internal costs and expenses that are incurred by or on its behalf in connection with the performance of the Collaboration Plan. Subject to Sections 4.1, 4.2, 8.6 and 9.2, and except for any amounts that may be payable by Celgene under a Vector and associated Payload supply agreement described in Section 2.1(c) or a Celgene In-License, Bluebird will be responsible for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses payable to Third Parties in connection with the performance of the Collaboration Plan.
2.3 Collaboration Program Records, Reports and Materials.

Subject to the foregoing, after Celgene has provided Materials costing more than [***], Bluebird will reimburse Celgene for the costs of any additional Materials.
(ii) Each Party will use such Materials only in accordance with the Collaboration Plan and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any instructions provided by the Party furnishing the Materials. Except with the prior written consent of the supplying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Party receiving any Materials will not distribute or otherwise allow the release of Materials to any Affiliate (other than wholly-owned subsidiaries) or Third Party, except for subcontracting as permitted hereunder. All Materials delivered to the receiving Party will remain the sole property of the supplying Party and will be used in compliance with all applicable Law. The Materials supplied under this Agreement will be used with prudence and appropriate caution in any experimental work because not all of their characteristics may be known.
2.4 Permitted Subcontracting. Each Party may subcontract any of its activities to be performed under the Collaboration Plan to an Affiliate or Third Party, provided that any such Affiliate or Third Party will have entered into a written agreement with such Party that includes terms and conditions protecting and limiting use and disclosure of Confidential Information and Materials and Know-How at least to the same extent as under this Agreement, and requiring such Affiliate or Third Party and its personnel to assign to such Party all right, title and interest in and to any Patents, Know-How and Materials created, conceived or developed in connection with the performance of subcontracted activities to the extent required to research, Develop, Manufacture and commercialize Product Candidates, provided that with respect to Third Parties that are academic or other non-commercial Persons, a Party will be required only to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such assignment, and in the absence of such assignment, the Parties will mutually agree on the rights ( e.g. , a license or option to license) to be obtained from such academic or non-commercial Persons. Any such subcontracting activities will be described in the reports for the Collaboration Program required by Section 2.3(b).

respect to Patent ownership, Prosecution and Maintenance, enforcement and defense matters (the “Patent Liaisons”), and (ii) establish a patent committee (the “ Patent Committee ”). The purpose of the Patent Committee is to determine ownership of intellectual property, and facilitate the discussion and coordination of Prosecution and Maintenance, enforcement and defense matters, in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement. The Patent Liaisons will be the primary point of contact for the Parties regarding the foregoing activities and will facilitate all such activities hereunder, including preparing and finalizing minutes of the Patent Committee and will be responsible for assisting the Patent Committee in performing its oversight responsibilities.
(b) Decisions. All decisions of the Patent Committee will be made by consensus, with each Party having one vote. If the Patent Committee cannot agree on a matter within the Patent Committee’s authority within five (5) days after it has met and attempted to reach such decision, then, either Party may, by written notice to the other, have such issue referred to the Program Directors for resolution. The Parties’ respective Program Directors will meet within five (5) days after such matter is referred to them, and will negotiate in good faith to resolve the matter. If the Program Directors are unable to resolve the matter within five (5) days after the matter is referred to them, then the decision will be resolved as set forth below:
(i) IP Ownership. The Patent Committee will determine ownership of Collaboration IP in accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 2.1(f); provided that the Patent Committee may allocate ownership of a particular item of intellectual property to improve the prospects of obtaining patent protection with respect to such item of intellectual property, even if such allocation is not in accordance with the terms of Section 2.1(f), so long as the Parties mutually agree to such allocation. In the event the Patent Committee cannot agree on a matter regarding ownership of an item of intellectual property, and the Program Directors are unable to resolve such matter, then such dispute will be resolved by a Third Party patent counsel selected by the Patent Committee who (and whose firm) is not, and was not at any time during the five (5) years prior to such dispute, an employee, consultant, legal advisor, officer, director or stockholder of, and does not have any conflict of interest with respect to, either Party. Such patent counsel will determine ownership of such intellectual property in accordance with U.S. patent law and Section 2.1(f). Expenses of the patent counsel will be shared equally by the Parties.
(ii) Patent Prosecution. The Patent Committee will discuss material issues and provide input to each other regarding the Prosecution and Maintenance, enforcement and defense of Bluebird IP, Celgene IP and jointly owned Collaboration IP. The Patent Liaisons will be responsible for coordinating the implementation of each Party’s strategies for the protection of the foregoing intellectual property rights related to Product Candidates. All final decisions related to the Prosecution and Maintenance, enforcement or defense of any Bluebird IP, Celgene IP and jointly-owned Collaboration IP will be made by the Party with the right to control such Prosecution and Maintenance, enforcement or defense, as applicable, as set forth in Section 9.

4.	Third Party Licenses.	
4.1 New Licenses.
(a) Identification. [***]
(b) Bluebird Contribution to the Collaboration. [***]
(e) Celgene Applicable/New In-Licenses. With respect to each Applicable Celgene In-License that is a Celgene New In-License:
(i) Celgene will be solely responsible for any upfront payment payable to the licensor under such Applicable Celgene In-License.
(ii) Except as provided in Sections 2.1(h)(ii), 5.7 and 12.4, Celgene and Bluebird will each be responsible for [***] any other payments required to be paid to the licensor under such Applicable Celgene In-License in respect of Collaboration Program activities or the research, Development, Manufacture or commercialization of Product Candidates, but excluding any payments that are (a) triggered by the grant of a sublicense under the Applicable Celgene In-License (other than sublicenses granted by Bluebird or its sublicensees), (b) annual fees paid to maintain the Applicable Celgene In-License in effect, (c) Patent Costs, (d) any payments that are royalty payments (including sales-based milestone payments), and (e) payments resulting from Celgene’s breach of the Applicable Celgene In-License not attributable to Bluebird or its contract Third Parties or sublicensees, which excluded payments will be the sole responsibility of Celgene; provided that Bluebird’s [***] share of such payments will become due and payable upon the execution of the first Development & Commercialization Agreement, and will be paid as follows: [***]
(iii) Any payments that are royalties payable by Celgene or its Affiliates under the Applicable Celgene In-License will be subject to Section 4.3(d) of such License Agreement or Section 11.3(d) of any Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement, as applicable.
(f) Celgene Pre-Existing/Applicable In-Licenses. With respect to any Applicable Celgene In-License that is a Celgene Pre-Existing In-License, except as provided in Sections 2.1(h)(ii), 5.7 and 12.4, Celgene will be solely responsible for all payments required to be paid to the licensor under such Applicable Celgene In-License, and any payments that are royalties payable by Celgene or its Affiliates under the Applicable Celgene In-License will be subject to Section 4.3(d) of such License Agreement or Section 11.3(d) of any Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement, as applicable.
4.2 Product Candidate In-Licenses. Other than with respect to Baylor as contemplated by the Baylor Agreements, which are governed by Sections 4.5 and 5.5 hereof, in the event that the Parties desire to enter into an agreement with any Third Party to obtain rights to Patents, Know-How or Materials that would constitute solely a new Product Candidate (if developed pursuant to this Agreement) in the Field, as opposed to only being necessary or useful for supporting research, Development or Commercialization of existing Product Candidates (a “ Product Candidate In-License ”), the Parties will jointly determine a strategy for endeavoring to procure rights under such Patents, Know-How or Materials, including with respect to allocation of the Parties’ responsibilities for any payments that may become due during the Collaboration Program Term under such Product Candidate In-License. Any such Product Candidate

In-License addressing any such new Product Candidate will require the prior written approval of both Parties, will be with both Parties and will be committed to the Collaboration Program (and not the Parties on an individual basis). Accordingly, any product candidate in-licensed pursuant to a Product Candidate In-License will be a “Product Candidate” hereunder, and will only be Developed or commercialized by either Party as a part of the Collaboration Program or under an executed Development and Commercialization Agreement, unless and until such Product Candidate becomes a Declined Product Candidate in accordance with Section 5.7. If the Parties agree that any Patents, Know-How or Materials in-licensed under a Product Candidate In-License will be used to Develop and commercialize a Product Candidate under a Development and Commercialization Agreement, the Parties will discuss in good faith and agree on the allocation of the Parties’ applicable rights and obligations thereto, including with respect to amounts payable under such Product Candidate In-License (other than a Baylor Product License), which terms will be set forth in such Development and Commercialization Agreement. If an in-license from a Third Party of rights to Patents, Materials or Know-How that would constitute a new Product Candidate also includes other rights that potentially have broader applicability (e.g., that may be useful for supporting research, Development or commercialization of Product Candidates that are against Target Antigens different than the Target Antigen in the Product Candidate in such Third Party in-license), such in-license will be treated as a “Product Candidate In-License” hereunder and the Parties will discuss in good faith the allocation of such other rights and obligations, along with costs, in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 4.1 and this Section 4.2. The Parties acknowledge that the terms of this Section 4.2 may need to be discussed and modified with respect to any particular Product Candidate In-License (other than a Baylor Product License) depending on the then existing facts and circumstances relating to such Product Candidate In-License.
4.3 Maintenance of Bluebird In-Licenses. Bluebird (i) will duly perform and observe all of its obligations under the Bluebird In-Licenses in all material respects and maintain in full force and effect the Bluebird In-Licenses, and (ii) will not, without Celgene’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (a) amend, modify, restate, cancel, supplement or waive any provision of any Bluebird In-License, or grant any consent thereunder, or agree to do any of the foregoing, or (a) exercise any right to terminate any Bluebird In-License, in each case ((a) and (b)) that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect in any respect the rights of Celgene under this Agreement or any potential or executed Development & Commercialization Agreement. Bluebird will provide Celgene with written notice as promptly as practicable (and in any event within five (5) business days) after becoming aware of any of the following: (1) any material breach or default by Bluebird or any of its Affiliates of any covenant, agreement or other provision of any Bluebird In-License, (2) any notice or claim from the counterparty to any Bluebird In-License terminating or providing notice of termination of any Bluebird In-License, (3) any notice or claim alleging any breach of default under any Bluebird In-License, or (4) the existence of any facts, circumstances or events which alone or together with other facts, circumstances or events would reasonably be expected (with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both) to give rise to a breach of or default under or right to terminate any Bluebird In-License. If Bluebird fails to pay any amounts due under any Bluebird In-License and if such nonpayment would permit the counterparty to such Bluebird In-License to terminate or suspend the same or any rights thereunder, Celgene will have

the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to pay such amounts on Bluebird’s behalf, and any amounts so paid by Celgene may be taken by Celgene as a credit against any amounts payable to Bluebird under this Agreement or any Development & Commercialization Agreement.
4.4 Maintenance of Celgene In-Licenses. Celgene [***] will duly perform and observe all of its obligations under the Applicable Celgene In-Licenses in all material respects and maintain in full force and effect the Applicable Celgene In-Licenses in the Field  [***].  Celgene will provide Bluebird with written notice as promptly as practicable (and in any event within  [***]  business days) after becoming aware of any of the following: (1) any material breach or default by Celgene or any of its Affiliates of any covenant, agreement or other provision of any Applicable Celgene In-License, (2) any notice or claim from the counterparty to any Applicable Celgene In-License terminating or providing notice of termination of any Applicable Celgene In-License, (3) any notice or claim alleging any breach of default under any Applicable Celgene In-License, or (4) the existence of any facts, circumstances or events which alone or together with other facts, circumstances or events would reasonably be expected (with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both) to give rise to a breach of or default under or right to terminate any Applicable Celgene In-License.  [***]  If Celgene fails to pay any amounts due under any Applicable Celgene In-License and if such nonpayment would permit the counterparty to such Applicable Celgene In-License to terminate or suspend the same or any rights thereunder, Bluebird will have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to pay such amounts on Celgene’s behalf, and Celgene will reimburse Bluebird for any such payments within  [***]  days of Celgene’s receipt of Bluebird’s written invoice therefor.
4.5 Baylor Agreements.
(a) Maintenance. Celgene [***] will duly perform and observe all of its obligations under the Baylor Agreements in all material respects[***]
(b) Notices. Each Party will provide the other Party with written notice as promptly as practicable (and in any event within [***] business days) after becoming aware of any of the following: (i) any material breach or default by such Party or any of its Affiliates of any covenant, agreement or other provision of any Baylor Agreement, (ii) any notice or claim from the counterparty to any Baylor Agreement terminating or providing notice of termination of any Baylor Agreement, (iii) any notice or claim alleging any breach of default under any Baylor Agreement, or (iv) the existence of any facts, circumstances or events which alone or together with other facts, circumstances or events would reasonably be expected (with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both) to give rise to a breach of or default under or right to terminate any Baylor Agreement. If Celgene fails to pay any amounts due under any Baylor Agreement and if such nonpayment would permit Baylor to terminate or suspend the same or any rights thereunder, Bluebird will have the right, but not the obligation, to pay such amounts on Celgene’s behalf, and Celgene will reimburse Bluebird for any such payments within thirty (30) days of Celgene’s receipt of Bluebird’s written invoice therefor.
(c) Exercise of Rights. [***] Celgene will not exercise any rights under any of the Baylor Agreements without first consulting with Bluebird and obtaining Bluebird’s prior consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), provided that no such consent will be required (1) for Celgene to enter into a Baylor Product License, (2) to terminate any Baylor Agreement other than a Baylor Product License, (3) after consultation with Bluebird, to terminate any Baylor Product License provided Celgene either (i) intends to maintain in force the corresponding Development & Commercialization Agreement or (ii) if such Development & Commercialization Agreement is not intended to remain in effect, offers to assign such Baylor Product License to Bluebird before initiating termination of same, (4) for Celgene to exercise any licenses or other similar license rights (such as the right to sublicense) granted to Celgene under any Baylor Agreement, (5) for Celgene to exercise any rights under the Platform License Agreement that do not require Bluebird’s consent under the sublicense agreement between Celgene and Bluebird under the Baylor Platform License, and (6) for Celgene to extend or not extend the term of any Baylor Agreement,  [***]  In addition, Bluebird may exercise its third-party beneficiary rights under any of the Baylor Agreements and Celgene will not interfere with any such exercise by Bluebird. For avoidance of doubt, Celgene’s election to not exercise a right, such as an election to not provide research or development funding to Baylor, will not be deemed “an exercise of rights” under the Baylor Agreements for purposes of this Section 4.5(c). The foregoing will apply, without limitation, to the Prosecution and Maintenance, and enforcement and defense, of all Patents, Know-How and Materials licensed under any of the Baylor Agreements, provided that Celgene will not require Bluebird’s consent to terminate Prosecution and Maintenance, or to commence, conduct or terminate the enforcement and defense of, any Patents, Know-How and Materials licensed under any of the Baylor Agreements so long as Celgene provides Bluebird with written notice thereof and, if permitted by the Baylor Agreements (including as a third-party beneficiary thereunder), affords Bluebird the right to take such actions, which if taken by Bluebird will be at Bluebird’s sole expense, provided that in such an event under the Baylor Platform License, (x) Celgene will agree in writing with Bluebird not to exercise (or grant others the right to exercise) any rights to any such Patent for which Prosecution or Maintenance has been terminated or a defense has not been commenced or conducted or has been

terminated, and (y) Bluebird will solely control and not share any recoveries from any such enforcement, in all such cases subject to the Baylor License Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 4.5(c), if Celgene determines in good faith that any action or inaction under any of the Baylor Agreements is legally required of Celgene (under any of the Baylor Agreements or otherwise) or is required to maintain any rights under the Baylor Agreements (including with respect to confidentiality and indemnification), or if Bluebird does not promptly respond to Celgene’s request after prior written notice to Bluebird, Celgene will have the right to take such action, or refrain from taking such action, but will remain subject to the terms of the Baylor Agreements, this Agreement and any Development & Commercialization Agreements.
(d) Other Agreements. During the Term, other than as permitted by the Baylor Agreements and pursuant to Section 2.1(f)(ii), neither Party nor its Affiliates will enter into any agreements with Baylor regarding the Baylor Field, nor collaborate with Baylor in the Baylor Field, nor have Baylor work or fund work by Baylor in the Baylor Field, without the prior written consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). It is understood and agreed that references to “Baylor” in this Section 4.5(d) include all faculty members, scientists, employees and students working at Baylor. This Section 4.5(d) will not apply to any Bluebird Business Program or Celgene Business Program, subject to the requirements of the last provisos in each of Sections 2.1(e)(i) and 2.1(e)(ii).
(e) Development & Commercialization Agreements. Celgene will not enter into any Baylor Product License without also entering into the applicable Development & Commercialization Agreement. For clarity this obligation will apply to all product candidates subject to any option rights under the Baylor Research Agreement, even if this Agreement has terminated or expired.
(f) Payments. Except as set forth below, Celgene will be responsible for one hundred percent (100%) of all amounts accrued and required to be paid under (i) the Baylor Research Agreement for as long as Celgene is the contracting party thereunder, (ii) the Baylor Platform License for as long as Celgene is the contracting party thereunder (save for those amounts for which Bluebird is responsible under the sublicense agreement between Celgene and Bluebird under the Baylor Platform License), and (iii) all Baylor Product Licenses that correspond to License Agreements between Celgene and Bluebird for as long as Celgene is the contracting party thereunder, provided that any royalties payable under such Baylor Product Licenses will be subject to Section 4.3(d) of such License Agreement, and provided further that the foregoing will not be interpreted to require Celgene to make any payments under the Baylor Agreements that are payments which Celgene has the option to pay or not pay under the terms of the Baylor Agreements. Bluebird will be responsible for one hundred percent (100%) of amounts required to be paid to Baylor to fund the research and Development of Product Candidates by Baylor through Phase 1 Study if Bluebird elects by written notice to Celgene to have Baylor work under the Collaboration Program and such Product Candidates are included in the Collaboration Plan; provided that Baylor-Only Candidates will not be included in this payment obligation. All amounts accrued and required to be paid under those Baylor Product Licenses arising from the applicable Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreements between Celgene and Bluebird will be treated as follows: (1) with respect to the Development and Commercialization of Elected Candidate and Licensed Product for U.S. Administration thereunder, such amounts will be treated as U.S. Development Expenses or Allowable Expenses thereunder, (2) with respect to the Development and Commercialization of Elected Candidate and Licensed Product for both U.S. Administration and ROW Administration thereunder, such amounts will allocated to and be treated as U.S. Development Expenses or Allowable Expenses thereunder in accordance with Section 4.3(b) thereunder, and (3) with respect to the Development and Commercialization of Elected Candidate and Licensed Product solely for ROW Administration thereunder (including the Manufacture of Vectors and associated Payloads therefor pursuant to Section 7.4 thereunder), Celgene will be responsible for one hundred percent (100%) of all such amounts, provided that any royalties payable under such Baylor Product License will be subject to Section 11.3(d) thereunder.
(g) Recoveries. All recoveries arising from any enforcement or defense of any “Licensed Intellectual Property” (as defined in the Baylor Agreements) licensed to Celgene under any of the Baylor Product Licenses will be, after deducting any amounts owed to Baylor thereunder, subject to the recovery provisions of the applicable Development & Commercialization Agreement.
(h) Baylor Declined Product. If Celgene receives any payments from Baylor pursuant to Section 4.8(b) of the Baylor Research Agreement with respect to the commercialization of a “Declined Product” (as defined in the Baylor Research Agreement), Celgene will pay to Bluebird (i)  [***]  percent  [***]  of any such payment paid to Celgene with respect to a Declined Product that is not a Baylor-Only Candidate, and (ii)  [***] percent  [***]  of any such payment paid to Celgene with respect to a Declined Product that is a Baylor-Only Candidate, in each case ((i) and (ii)) within thirty (30) days of Celgene’s receipt thereof.

(i) Baylor Product License. If any IND Product Candidate or Pre-IND Product Candidate for which Bluebird takes over responsibility pursuant to Section 12.4 is or would be subject to a Baylor Product License, then Celgene will, at Bluebird’s written request, either (i) assign to Bluebird the applicable Baylor Product License if in effect in accordance with the terms of Section 13.5 thereof, provided that if such Baylor Product License applies to other products, Celgene will assign or sublicense to Bluebird that portion of the Baylor Product License that applies to the Licensed Product, and with the consequences therein stated (that is, Celgene will remain responsible for all payments accruing thereunder prior to such assignment, and Bluebird will be responsible for all payments accruing thereunder after such assignment), or (ii) have Baylor enter into a Baylor Product License for such IND Product Candidate or Pre-IND Product Candidate, with Bluebird being responsible for all payments accruing thereunder, provided, that, in each case ((i) and (ii)), if Celgene exercises its option with respect to a Pre-IND Candidate pursuant to Section 12.4(c)(iii) and such Pre-IND Candidate is or would be subject to a Baylor Product License assigned to Bluebird under clause (i) above or entered into pursuant to clause (ii) above, then Celgene will reimburse Bluebird for all payments paid by Bluebird under such Baylor Product License with respect to such Pre-IND Candidate, and upon Celgene’s request Bluebird will assign to Celgene such Baylor Product License if in effect in accordance with the terms of Section 13.5 thereof, provided that if such Baylor Product License applies to other products, Bluebird will assign or sublicense to Celgene that portion of the Baylor Product License that applies to such Pre-IND Candidate, with Celgene being responsible for all payments accruing thereunder after such assignment.
(j) Survival. This Section 4.5 will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. Celgene will, at Bluebird’s written request, make the representation set forth in Section 11.6(d)(i) under the Baylor Platform License, unless Celgene reasonably concludes that Celgene is unable to make such representation in good faith.
4.6 No Implied Rights. No license, sublicense or other right is or will be created or granted hereunder by implication, estoppel or otherwise. Any licenses, sublicenses or rights will be granted only as expressly provided in this Agreement or any executed Development & Commercialization Agreement.
 
5.	Option for Licensed Candidates.	
5.1 Option Period. Bluebird will provide Celgene with all safety and efficacy data generated with respect to a Product Candidate in an initial Phase 1 Study and all correspondence to and from any Regulatory Authority regarding such Product Candidate (collectively, “ Phase 1 Study Data ”), as soon as reasonably practicable following Bluebird’s receipt of same. From the period commencing at the Effective Date and ending, on a Product Candidate-by-Product Candidate basis, [***] following the completion of an initial Phase 1 Study with respect to such Product Candidate (the “ Celgene Option Period ”), Celgene will have the exclusive option to take a license to each Product Candidate, provided that if Celgene reasonably requests any additional data or information for such Product Candidate within the Celgene Option Period set forth above, the Celgene Option Period will be extended for an additional [***] after Celgene’s receipt of such additional data or information. Bluebird shall deliver to Celgene no later than [***] following the completion of an initial Phase 1 Study with respect to such Product Candidate, the Schedule referred to in Section 16.2 of the Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement or Section 9.2 of the License Agreement. Celgene may exercise such option by providing to Bluebird, prior to the expiration of the Celgene Option Period, (i) written notice that a Product Candidate is selected by Celgene to be an Optioned Candidate hereunder, and (ii) the additional information set forth in  Exhibit F  (collectively, the “ Celgene Option Notice ”). A separate Celgene Option Notice and Initial Option Fee will be required for each Product Candidate optioned by Celgene pursuant to this Section 5.1, and Celgene will pay to Bluebird the Initial Option Fee for each such Optioned Candidate as set forth in Section 8.4. Subject to Section 5.7 and Section 12.4, if not exercised prior to the expiration of the Celgene Option Period, the option and other rights granted to Celgene under this Section 5 with respect to a Product Candidate will terminate in full and will no longer be exercisable.
5.2 Celgene’s Exercise of Option. Within [***] of Celgene’s delivery of a Celgene Option Notice to Bluebird, Celgene (or an Affiliate designated by Celgene) and Bluebird will enter into a License Agreement in the form attached hereto as  Exhibit A  with respect to such Optioned Candidate (updating the appendices thereto), modified, if appropriate, as provided in Sections 4.2 or 5.5, and subject to Section 5.9. Upon execution of such License Agreement, such Optioned Candidate will be an “Elected Candidate” thereunder.
5.3 Co-Promotion/Co-Development Option Exercise. Within [***] following Celgene’s delivery of a Celgene Option Notice to Bluebird, and subject to Section 5.9, Bluebird may exercise an option, by delivery of written notice to Celgene (the “ Bluebird Option Notice ”) to

co-promote and co-Develop the Optioned Candidate in the U.S. as set forth in the Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement attached hereto as  Exhibit B , provided that with respect to a Baylor-Only Candidate for which Celgene has delivered a Celgene Option Notice, such option will end on the earlier of (i) [***] following Celgene’s commencement of a Pivotal Study (as defined in the License Agreement) for such Baylor-Only Candidate, and (ii) the date that Bluebird delivers written notice to Celgene that Bluebird is declining to exercise such option. Prior to the expiration of such option for a Baylor-Only Candidate, upon Bluebird’s written request, Celgene will provide Bluebird with (a) a reasonably detailed accounting of any payments made or other actions taken by Celgene pursuant to the License Agreement executed pursuant to Section 5.2 that would be the responsibility of Bluebird under the Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement, including, for avoidance of doubt, costs incurred by Celgene in Developing such Baylor-Only Candidate through and including the Pivotal Study for such Baylor-Only Candidate, and (b) all safety and efficacy data in Celgene’s possession as of the date of such request generated with respect to such Baylor-Only Candidate in all clinical studies conducted by Celgene for such Baylor-Only Candidate, all correspondence to and from any Regulatory Authority in Celgene’s possession as of the date of such request regarding such Baylor-Only Candidate, and any other information relating to such Baylor-Only Candidate reasonably requested by Bluebird and in Celgene’s possession as of the date of such request. In the event that Bluebird exercises such option, the Parties will promptly, but in any event within [***], terminate the License Agreement executed pursuant to Section 5.2 with respect to such Optioned Candidate, and enter into a Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement in the form attached hereto as  Exhibit B  with respect to such Optioned Candidate, with appropriate amendments to reflect and reimburse Celgene for any payments made or other actions taken by Celgene pursuant to the License Agreement executed pursuant to Section 5.2 that are the responsibility of Bluebird under the Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement, including, for avoidance of doubt, costs incurred by Celgene in Developing a Baylor-Only Candidate through and including the Pivotal Study for the Baylor-Only Candidate. Upon execution of such Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement, such Optioned Candidate will be an “Elected Candidate” thereunder. [***]
5.4 Non-Co-Promotion/Co-Development Option Exercise. If during the [***] following Celgene’s delivery of a Celgene Option Notice to Bluebird, Bluebird notifies Celgene in writing that Bluebird will not exercise the option set forth above in Section 5.3, or Bluebird does not deliver a Bluebird Option Notice to Celgene prior to the expiration of the [***] period following Celgene’s delivery of a Celgene Option Notice to Bluebird, Celgene will pay to Bluebird the Additional Option Fee as set forth in Section 8.5, subject to Section 5.5.
5.5 Baylor-Only Candidate Royalty & Milestone Payments. In the event that any Optioned Candidate is also a Baylor-Only Candidate (as reasonably determined by the Parties), (i) the Initial Option Fee and the Additional Option Fee will each be reduced [***], and (ii) any royalties or milestone payments payable under the applicable Development & Commercialization Agreement with respect to such Optioned Candidate will be reduced [***]. All such payments will become due and payable only upon the commencement of a Pivotal Study (as defined in the applicable Development & Commercialization Agreement) for such Optioned Candidate. At such time that the Optioned Candidate no longer satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of Baylor-Only Candidate as set forth below in this Section 5.5, all

future milestone and royalty payments thereunder will be payable in the original amounts thereunder [***]. For clarity, such [***] reduction will only apply to royalties and milestone payments and no other payments under the applicable Development & Commercialization Agreement (and for clarity, in the Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement attached hereto as  Exhibit B , the profit share/loss will be unaffected). [***]
5.6 Follow-On Product Candidates. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Collaboration Program may include the Development and evaluation of multiple Product Candidates targeting the same Target Antigen. If Celgene exercises its option pursuant to Section 5.1 to take a license to a Product Candidate that targets the same Target Antigen as an existing Optioned Candidate (a “ Follow-On Product Candidate ”), then the Parties will enter into a new License Agreement in the form attached hereto as  Exhibit A  with respect to such Follow-On Product Candidate, unless (i) Bluebird has exercised or does exercise its option to co-promote and co-Develop such existing Optioned Candidate in the U.S. as set forth in Section 5.3, and (ii) this Agreement has not been terminated by Celgene pursuant to Section 12.3(a), in which case the Parties will enter into a Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement with respect to such Follow-On Product Candidate, provided that no [***] will be payable under any such Development & Commercialization Agreement. If the Parties enter into Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement with respect to such Follow-On Product Candidate, Bluebird will have the option of paying [***] Bluebird’s allowable expenses thereunder by [***]. If the Parties enter into a License Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.6 with respect to a Follow-On Product Candidate, Celgene will pay to Bluebird (a) the Initial Option Fee in accordance with Section 8.4, and (b) the Additional Option Fee in accordance with Section 8.5 (but excluding subsections (i) and (ii) of such Section 8.5). If the Parties enter into a Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement pursuant to this Section 5.6 with respect to a Follow-On Product Candidate, Celgene will pay to Bluebird the Initial Option Fee in accordance with Section 8.4 but no Additional Option Fee.
5.7 Declined Product Candidates.
(a) Bluebird Development. If Celgene does not exercise its option with respect to a Product Candidate as set forth in Section 5.1, such Product Candidate or IND Product Candidate, as applicable, will become a “ Declined Product Candidate ” hereunder. Bluebird will have the option, exercisable upon written notice to Celgene (a “ Bluebird Development Notice ”), to Develop such Declined Product Candidate outside of the scope of the Collaboration Program, and Celgene hereby grants to Bluebird an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free right and license, with the right to grant sublicenses, under the Celgene IP and Celgene’s interest in jointly owned Collaboration IP, solely to Develop such Declined Product Candidate. If any royalty, milestone or other payment, [***] becomes due under any Applicable Celgene In-License that is attributable to Bluebird as a sublicensee thereunder with respect to such Development work, Celgene will pay same, provided that Bluebird will reimburse Celgene for any such payment within thirty (30) days of Bluebird’s receipt of Celgene’s written invoice therefor, and Bluebird’s failure to pay such reimbursement within such time period will entitle Celgene to terminate Bluebird’s sublicense under the Applicable Celgene In-License upon thirty (30) days written notice. In connection with any such Development activities, Bluebird will (i) maintain, or cause to be maintained, records of its activities with respect to the Development of such Declined Product Candidate in sufficient detail and in good scientific manner appropriate for scientific, Patent and regulatory purposes, for a period of at least ten (10) years after the creation of such records, but in no event less than required by applicable Laws, and Celgene will have the right to request and receive a copy of any such records, and (ii) furnish Celgene with a copy of any safety and efficacy data generated by Bluebird or its Affiliates in connection with a clinical trial performed with respect to such Declined Product Candidate, and all correspondence to and from any Regulatory Authority regarding such Declined Product Candidate, at least thirty (30) days prior to initiating a Declined Product Candidate Study for such Declined Product Candidate.

(b) Celgene Buy-In Rights.
(i) At least thirty (30) days prior to initiating a Declined Product Candidate Study for a Declined Product Candidate, and no later than thirty (30) days after completing a Declined Product Candidate Study for a Declined Product Candidate, Bluebird will provide Celgene with written notice of same. Celgene will have the option, exercisable on a Declined Product Candidate-by-Declined Product Candidate basis at any time prior to [***] completion of a Declined Product Candidate Study for such Declined Product Candidate, to designate such Declined Product Candidate as an Optioned Candidate. [***] prior to the initiation of a Declined Product Candidate Study for a Declined Product Candidate, Bluebird will provide to Celgene (1) all safety and efficacy data in Bluebird’s possession as of the date of such disclosure generated with respect to such Declined Product Candidate in all clinical studies conducted prior to the Declined Product Candidate Study for such Declined Product Candidate, and (2) all correspondence to and from any Regulatory Authority regarding such Declined Product Candidate as of the date of such disclosure. Following such disclosure, Bluebird will provide Celgene with (x) any additional data and correspondence described in subsections (1) and (2) that comes into Bluebird’s possession during such [***] period, and (y) any other information relating to such Declined Product Candidate reasonably requested by Celgene. Within [***] after the completion of a Declined Product Candidate Study for a Declined Product Candidate, Bluebird will provide Celgene with all safety and efficacy data generated with respect to such Declined Product Candidate in such Declined Product Candidate Study, all correspondence to and from any Regulatory Authority regarding such Declined Product Candidate, and any other information relating to such Declined Product Candidate reasonably requested by Celgene.
(ii) Such option is exercisable by Celgene by providing Bluebird with a Celgene Option Notice, and if Celgene so elects, (1) such Declined Product Candidate will be an Optioned Candidate for all purposes hereunder (other than Section 5.1), and (2) Celgene will pay to Bluebird (in lieu of any Option Fees) an amount equal to:
(A) if the option is exercised by Celgene prior to the initiation of the Declined Product Candidate Study, the greater of [***]; or
(B) if the option is exercised by Celgene after the initiation of the Declined Product Candidate Study, the greater of [***].
(iii) If Celgene does not exercise its option with respect to a Declined Product Candidate as set forth above, (A) the Development license granted by Celgene to Bluebird under Section 5.7(a) will also include the rights to Manufacture and commercialize such Declined Product Candidate, provided that such license shall be limited to the Celgene IP and jointly owned Collaboration IP as it exists at the time Celgene’s option to the Declined Product Candidate has expired or been terminated (including in each case any additions, divisions, continuations, continuations-in-part, invention certificates, substitutions, reissues, reexaminations, extensions, registrations, supplementary protection certificates and renewals of such Celgene IP and Joint Collaboration IP), (B) such Declined Product Candidate will continue to be excluded from the scope of the Collaboration Program, (C) Bluebird will reimburse

Celgene within ten (10) days of the expiration of Celgene’s option for the Declined Product Candidate for any royalty, milestone or other payments made by Celgene under the Applicable Celgene In-License (other than any upfront payment) in respect of such Declined Product Candidate; (D) if any royalty, milestone or other payment becomes due under any Applicable Celgene In-License that is attributable to Bluebird as a sublicensee (together with its licensees and their respective Affiliates) thereunder with respect to such Development, Manufacture or commercialization of the Declined Product Candidate, Celgene will pay same, provided that Bluebird will reimburse Celgene for any such payment within thirty (30) days of Bluebird’s receipt of Celgene’s written invoice therefor, and Bluebird’s failure to pay such reimbursement within such time period will entitle Celgene to terminate Bluebird’s sublicense under the Applicable Celgene In-License upon thirty (30) days written notice; and (E) subject to the exclusivity restrictions set forth in Section 2.1(e), Section 3.5 of the License Agreement (if applicable) or Section 10.4 of the Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement (if applicable), Bluebird will be free to research, Develop, Manufacture and commercialize such Declined Product Candidate alone or with others with no further obligation to Celgene other than with respect to any payment that may become due under any Applicable Celgene In-License that is attributable to Bluebird as a sublicensee (together with its licensees and their respective Affiliates) thereunder with respect to such Development, Manufacture and commercialization.
5.8 Bluebird In-Licenses. Any Pre-Existing In-Licenses that are necessary or useful for a Product Candidate under a Development & Commercialization Agreement will automatically be included within the definition of Applicable Pre-Existing In-Licenses in such Development & Commercialization Agreement, and any Bluebird Collaboration In-Licenses that Celgene elects to include within the definition of Applicable New In-Licenses in such Development & Commercialization Agreement will be so included. Any Bluebird Collaboration In-Licenses that Celgene does not elect to include in such Development & Commercialization Agreement will be an Other In-License with respect to such Development & Commercialization Agreement unless and until Celgene elects to convert such Other In-License to an Applicable New In-License in accordance with the terms of the applicable Development & Commercialization Agreement. Promptly following Celgene’s delivery of a Celgene Option Notice with respect to a Product Candidate, the Parties will mutually update the applicable Appendices to the Development & Commercialization Agreement. If the Parties cannot agree on such update, Celgene will have the right to make the final decision with respect to such update. For clarity, if, (1) during the Collaboration Program Term or (2) at the time Celgene takes rights to an IND Candidate or Pre-IND Candidate under Section 12.4, Celgene elects to convert a Bluebird New In-License into a Bluebird Collaboration In-License pursuant to Section 4.1(d), such Collaboration In-License will be an “Other In-License” with respect to any Development & Commercialization Agreement in effect or to be entered into under Section 12.4 at the time of such election, and Celgene may elect to convert such Other In-License to an Applicable New In-License in accordance with the terms of such applicable Development & Commercialization Agreement.
5.9 Government Approvals.
(a) Each of Celgene and Bluebird shall use its commercially reasonable good faith efforts to eliminate any concern on the part of any court or government authority regarding the

legality of any proposed Development & Commercialization Agreement (including with respect to IND Candidates and Pre-IND Candidates under Section 12.4), including, if required by federal or state antitrust authorities, promptly taking all steps to secure government antitrust clearance, including cooperating in good faith with any government investigation including the prompt production of documents and information demanded by a second request for documents and of witnesses if requested. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this  Section 5.9  and the term “commercially reasonable good faith efforts” do not require that either Party (i) offer, negotiate, commit to or effect, by consent decree, hold separate order, trust or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition of any capital stock, assets, rights, products or businesses of Celgene, Bluebird or their respective Affiliates, (ii) agree to any restrictions on the businesses of Celgene, Bluebird or their respective Affiliates, or (iii) pay any material amount or take any other action to prevent, effect the dissolution of, vacate, or lift any decree, order, judgment, injunction, temporary restraining order, or other order in any suit or proceeding that would otherwise have the effect of preventing or delaying the transactions contemplated by any proposed Development and Commercialization Agreement.

11.6 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by Celgene. Celgene will indemnify Bluebird, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, Third Party licensors and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, “ Bluebird Indemnitees ”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “ Losses ”) in connection with any and all suits, investigations, claims or demands of Third Parties (collectively, “ Third Party Claims ”) against the Bluebird Indemnitees arising from or occurring as a result of: (i) the material breach by Celgene of any term of this Agreement; (ii) Celgene’s performance of the Collaboration Program (other than with respect to claims of actual or alleged infringement, misappropriation or other violation of a Third Party’s Patents, trade secrets, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights); or (iii) any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Celgene in performing its obligations under this Agreement, except in each case for those Losses for which Bluebird has an obligation to indemnify Celgene pursuant to Section 11.6(b), as to which Losses each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability; provided, however, that Celgene will not be obligated to indemnify Bluebird Indemnitees for any Losses to the extent that such Losses arise as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of a Bluebird Indemnitee.
(b) Indemnification by Bluebird. Bluebird will indemnify Celgene, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, “ Celgene Indemnitees ”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all Losses in connection with any and all Third Party Claims against Celgene Indemnitees arising from or occurring as a result of: (i) the material breach by Bluebird of any term of this Agreement; (ii) Bluebird’s performance of the Collaboration Program (other than with respect to claims of actual or alleged infringement, misappropriation or other violation of a Third Party’s Patents, trade secrets, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights); (iii) [***]; or (iv) any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Bluebird in performing its obligations under this Agreement, except in each case for those Losses for which Celgene has an obligation to indemnify Bluebird pursuant to Section 11.6(a), as to which Losses each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for the Losses; provided, however, that Bluebird will not be obligated to indemnify Celgene Indemnitees for any Losses to the extent that such Losses arise as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of a Celgene Indemnitee.
(c) Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims provided for in Section 11.6(a) and 11.6(b) will be made solely by such Party to this Agreement (the “ Indemnified Party ”).

indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and estimated amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss is known at such time). The Indemnified Party will furnish promptly to the indemnifying Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses and Third Party Claims.
(d) Defense, Settlement, Cooperation and Expenses.
(i) Control of Defense. At its option, the indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice, provided however that (i) the Third Party Claim solely seeks monetary damages and (ii) the indemnifying Party expressly agrees in writing that as between the indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, the indemnifying Party will be solely obligated to satisfy and discharge the Third Party Claim in full and is able to reasonably demonstrate that it has sufficient financial resources (the matters described in (i) and (ii), the “ Litigation Conditions ”). The assumption of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the indemnifying Party will not be construed as an acknowledgment that the indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of the Third Party Claim (except as provided in the immediately prior sentence), nor will it constitute a waiver by the indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the indemnifying Party (the indemnifying Party will consult with the Indemnified Party with respect to a possible conflict of interest of such counsel retained by the indemnifying Party). In the event the indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will immediately deliver to the indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party in connection with the Third Party Claim. Should the indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, except as provided in Section 11.6(d)(ii), the indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal costs or expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party may, at any time, assume the defense of a Third Party Claim if at any time the Litigation Conditions are not satisfied with respect to such Claim. In the event that it is ultimately determined that the indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will reimburse the indemnifying Party for any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs of suit) and any Third Party Claims incurred by the indemnifying Party in its defense of the Third Party Claim.
(ii) Right to Participate in Defense. Without limiting Section 11.6(d)(i), any Indemnified Party will be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment will be at the Indemnified Party’s own cost and expense unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying Party in writing, (ii) the indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 11.6(d)(i) (in which case the Indemnified Party will control the defense), (iii) the

interests of the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both Parties under applicable Law, ethical rules or equitable principles, or (iv) the indemnifying Party no longer satisfies the Litigation Conditions, in which case the indemnifying Party will assume one hundred percent (100%) of any such costs and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Party.
(iii) Settlement. With respect to any Third Party Claims that relate solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnified Party’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affecting the business of the Indemnified Party in any manner, and as to which the indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder, and subject to the Litigation Conditions being satisfied, the indemnifying Party will have the sole right to agree to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, will deem appropriate. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 11.6(d)(i), the indemnifying Party will have authority to agree to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The indemnifying Party will not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnified Party that is reached without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnified Party will admit any liability with respect to or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
(iv) Cooperation. If the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will, and will cause each other Indemnified Party to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours afforded to indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnified Parties and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection therewith.
(v) Costs and Expenses. Except as provided above in this Section 11.6(d), the costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any claim will be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.

13.2 Cumulative Remedies and Irreparable Harm. All rights and remedies of the Parties hereunder will be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies provided hereunder or available by agreement, at law or otherwise. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that breach of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement would cause irreparable harm and damage to the other and that such damage may not be ascertainable in money damages and that as a result thereof the non-breaching Party would be entitled to seek from a court equitable or injunctive relief restraining any breach or future violation of the terms contained herein by the breaching Party without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting bond. Such right to equitable relief is in addition to whatever remedies either Party may be entitled to as a matter of law or equity, including money damages.

6.	Patent Prosecution and Maintenance.	
6.1 Generally. Subject to Sections 6.2 and 6.3, Bluebird will have the sole right to Prosecute and Maintain Patents within the Licensed IP. Bluebird will use commercially reasonable efforts to, where applicable and upon Celgene’s reasonable request, separate parent Patent applications within the Licensed IP into one or more separate Patent applications for Specific Patents, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, where doing so would not reasonably be expected to materially harm any Patent within the Licensed IP or other Patents owned by Bluebird or its Affiliates, provided that the foregoing limitation will not apply to Licensed IP that is Collaboration IP. [***]
6.2 Celgene Input. Bluebird will regularly provide Celgene with copies of all applications for Patents within the Licensed IP, and all other material submissions and correspondence with any patent authorities regarding such Patents, in sufficient time to allow for review and comment by Celgene. In addition, Bluebird will provide Celgene and its counsel with an opportunity to consult with Bluebird and its counsel regarding Prosecution and Maintenance of any such Patents in the Field, and Bluebird will consider in good faith all comments timely made by Celgene and its counsel. In the event of any disagreement between any of Bluebird or Celgene, Bluebird will have the final decision-making authority with respect to the matter involved as long as Bluebird acts in good faith.
6.3 Specific Patents. For any Patent within the Licensed IP [***] (each “Specific Patent”), the following will apply: upon Celgene’s written request, and provided that Bluebird reasonably agrees with Celgene that the following Prosecution and Maintenance activities would not materially harm any other Patent within the Licensed IP or other Patents owned by Bluebird or its Affiliates (other than Collaboration IP), Celgene will control the Prosecution and Maintenance of the Specific Patents, and notwithstanding anything in Section 6.1 to the contrary, Celgene will be solely responsible for the payment of all related Patent Costs. In addition, Celgene will provide Bluebird and its counsel with an opportunity to consult with Celgene and

its counsel regarding Prosecution and Maintenance of any such Specific Patents, and Celgene will include or reflect all reasonable comments timely made by Bluebird and its counsel. Celgene acknowledges and agrees that Bluebird may grant similar rights to other exclusive Third Party licensees under any Patent within the Licensed IP that has claims Covering only a product that is not a Licensed Product (or its manufacture or use) and no other product (or its manufacture or use), other than Specific Patents. If the Parties cannot agree whether or not any Patent within the Licensed IP is a Specific Patent, or if Bluebird claims that the foregoing Prosecution and Maintenance activities would materially harm any other Patent within the Licensed IP or other Patents owned by Bluebird or any of its Affiliates, either of the Parties may refer such dispute to a mutually agreeable, disinterested, conflict-of-interest-free individual not affiliated or consulting with either Party and who has at least fifteen (15) years of patent prosecution experience in the pharmaceutical field. Any such arbitration will be conducted under the then-current rules of the American Arbitration Association, and the decision of the arbitrator will be final.
6.4 Election Not to Prosecute or Maintain or Pay Patent Costs. If Bluebird elects not (i) to Prosecute or Maintain any Patents within the Licensed IP in any particular country before the applicable filing deadline or continue such activities once filed in a particular country, or (ii) to pay the Patent Costs associated with Prosecution or Maintenance of any Patents within the Licensed IP, then in each such case Bluebird will so notify Celgene, promptly in writing and in good time to enable Bluebird to meet any deadlines by which an action must be taken to preserve such Patent in such country, if Celgene so requests. Upon receipt of each such notice by Bluebird, Celgene will have the right, but not the obligation, to notify Bluebird in writing on a timely basis that Celgene will assume control of the Prosecution or Maintenance of such Patent, and bear the Patent Costs thereafter incurred by Celgene with respect thereto. In addition, Celgene will provide Bluebird and its counsel with an opportunity to consult with Celgene and its counsel regarding Prosecution and Maintenance of any such Patents, and Celgene will include or reflect all reasonable comments timely made by Bluebird and its counsel. If after making such election, Celgene elects not to pay the Patent Costs associated with Prosecution or Maintenance of any such Patent, then in each such case Celgene will so notify Bluebird and on the ninetieth (90 th ) day after Bluebird’s receipt of such notice such Patent will no longer be licensed to Celgene hereunder and will no longer be included within the “Licensed IP” hereunder.
6.5 Third Party Rights. To the extent that a Third Party licensor of Bluebird has retained any right to Prosecute or Maintain any Patent within the Licensed IP licensed to Celgene hereunder (including pursuant to an Applicable Bluebird In-License), or otherwise be involved in such activities, Bluebird will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Third Party licensor to take the actions specified by this Section 6 (including Sections 6.6 and 6.7) in a manner consistent with the in-license applicable thereto, but Bluebird will not be deemed to be in breach of its obligations under this Section 6 if, after using such commercially reasonable efforts, it is unable to comply with such obligations because of actions taken or not taken by such Third Party licensor.
6.6 Patent Extensions. Subject to the remainder of this Section 6.6, if any election for patent term restoration or extension, supplemental protection certificate or any of their

equivalents may be made with respect to any Patent within the Licensed IP, after consultation with Celgene, the Parties will discuss and seek to reach mutual agreement whether or not to take such action. If the Parties are not able to reach mutual agreement, (i) Celgene will have the sole right to make the final decision whether or not to seek such patent term restoration or extension, supplemental protection certificate or any of their equivalents with respect to Specific Patents and Patents within the Collaboration IP licensed to Celgene hereunder and (ii) Bluebird will have the sole right to make the final decision whether or not to seek such patent term restoration or extension, supplemental protection certificate or any of their equivalents with respect to all other Patents within the Licensed IP.
6.7 Regulatory Exclusivity Periods. With respect to any Patent listings required for any Regulatory Exclusivity Periods for Product, the Parties will mutually agree on which Patents within the Licensed IP to list, provided that if the Parties are not able to agree, Celgene will have the right to make the final decision, and provided further that the exercise of such right by Celgene will not increase or otherwise change the rights or obligations of the Parties hereunder.
6.8 Cooperation. Each Party will reasonably cooperate with the other Party in the Prosecution and Maintenance of Patents within the Licensed IP. Such cooperation includes promptly executing all documents, or requiring inventors, subcontractors, employees and consultants and agents of Celgene and Bluebird and their respective Affiliates and Sublicensees to execute all documents, as reasonable and appropriate so as to enable the Prosecution and Maintenance of any such Patents in any country.
6.9 Patent Marking. Celgene will mark, and will cause all other Selling Parties to mark, Product with all Patents within the Licensed IP in accordance with applicable Law, which marking obligation will continue for as long as (and only for as long as) required under applicable Law.
6.10 Common Interest Disclosures. With regard to any information or opinions disclosed pursuant to this License Agreement by one Party to the other Party regarding Prosecution and Maintenance of Patent within the Licensed IP, or enforcement of intellectual property and/or technology by or against Third Parties, Bluebird and Celgene agree that they have a common legal interest in determining the ownership, scope, validity and/or enforcement of the Licensed IP, and whether, and to what extent, Third Party intellectual property rights may affect the conduct of the Development and Commercialization of any Licensed Product, and have a further common legal interest in defending against any actual or prospective Third Party claims based on allegations of misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights relating to the Development or Commercialization of any Licensed Product. Accordingly, the Parties agree that all such information and materials obtained by the Parties from each other will be used solely for purposes of the Parties’ common legal interests with respect to the conduct of the Agreement. All such information and materials will be treated as protected by the attorney-client privilege, the work product privilege, and any other privilege or immunity that may otherwise be applicable. By sharing any such information and materials, neither Party intends to waive or limit any privilege or immunity that may apply to the shared information and materials. Neither Party will have the authority to waive any privilege or immunity on behalf of the other Party without such other Party’s prior written consent, nor will the waiver of privilege or immunity resulting from the conduct of one Party be deemed to apply against any other Party.

7.	Patent Enforcement and Defense.	
7.1 Notice. Each Party will promptly notify, in writing, the other Party upon learning of any actual or suspected Competitive Infringement of any Patents within the Licensed IP by a Third Party, or of any claim of invalidity, unenforceability, or non-infringement of any Patents within the Licensed IP, and will, along with such notice, supply the other Party with any evidence in its possession pertaining thereto. For purposes of this License Agreement, “ Competitive Infringement ” means any allegedly infringing activity in the Field (which, for the purposes of this definition, will include all indications and will not be limited to cancer) with respect to a Patent within the Licensed IP, which activity (i) falls within the scope then in effect of the licenses granted by Bluebird to Celgene as set forth in Sections 3.1, (ii) is subject to Section 7.2(f), or (iii) would be competitive with a Licensed Product and targets the same Target Antigen as such Licensed Product.
7.2 Enforcement and Defense. [***]
7.3 Third Party Rights. To the extent that a Third Party licensor of Bluebird has retained any right to (i) defend against a declaratory judgment action or other action challenging any Patents within the Licensed IP, (ii) seek to abate any Competitive Infringement of the Patents within the Licensed IP by a Third Party, or (iii) take any other actions described in Section 7.2 for any Patent within the Licensed IP licensed to Celgene hereunder (including pursuant to an Applicable Bluebird In-License), or otherwise be involved in such activities, Bluebird will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Third Party licensor to take the actions specified by this Section 7.3 in a manner consistent with the in-license applicable thereto, but Bluebird will not be deemed to be in breach of its obligations under this Section 7.3 if, after using such commercially reasonable efforts, it is unable to comply with such obligations because of actions taken or not taken by such Third Party licensor.

Neither Bluebird nor any of its Affiliates has received any notice of any counterparty’s intention to terminate any Applicable Bluebird In-License in whole or in part or any notice requesting any amendment, alteration or modification of such Applicable Bluebird In-License or any sublicense or assignment thereunder.

Except for the Applicable Bluebird In-Licenses, neither Bluebird nor any of its Affiliates is a party to any license, sublicense or other agreement pursuant to which Bluebird or such Affiliate has received a license or other rights relating to the Elected Candidate or Licensed Product. All Patents and Know-How licensed to Bluebird under the Applicable Bluebird In-Licenses are Controlled by Bluebird for purposes of the licenses granted to Celgene under this License Agreement.
(c) Patents. To Bluebird’s Knowledge, the Patents listed on Appendix F have been procured or are being procured from the respective patent offices in accordance with applicable Law.

Neither Bluebird nor any of its Affiliates has received any notice alleging that the Patents in the Licensed IP are invalid or unenforceable, or challenging Bluebird’s ownership of or right to use any such rights.
(d) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by Bluebird of this License Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in any violation of, conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any understanding, contract or agreement to which Bluebird is a party or by which it is bound.

Neither Bluebird nor any of its Affiliates has entered into any agreement or otherwise licensed, granted, assigned, transferred, conveyed or otherwise encumbered or disposed of any right, title or interest in or to any of its assets, including any intellectual property rights, that would in any way conflict with or impair the scope of any rights or licenses granted to Celgene hereunder.

9.6 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by Celgene. Celgene will indemnify Bluebird, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, Third Party licensors and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, “ Bluebird Indemnitees ”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “ Losses ”) in connection with any and all suits, investigations, claims or demands of Third Parties (collectively, “ Third Party Claims ”) against the Bluebird Indemnitees arising from or occurring as a result of: (i) the material breach by Celgene of any term of this License Agreement; (ii) any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Celgene in performing its obligations under this License Agreement; or (iii) the Development or Commercialization by or on behalf of Celgene or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees of Elected Candidate or Licensed Product, except in each case for those Losses for which Bluebird has an obligation to indemnify Celgene pursuant to Section 9.6(b), as to which Losses each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability; provided, however, that Celgene will not be obligated to indemnify Bluebird Indemnitees for any Losses to the extent that such Losses arise as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Bluebird Indemnitee.
(b) Indemnification by Bluebird. Bluebird will indemnify Celgene, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, “ Celgene Indemnitees ”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all Losses in connection with any and all Third Party Claims against Celgene Indemnitees arising from or occurring as a result of: (i) the material breach by Bluebird of any term of this License Agreement; (ii) any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Bluebird in performing its obligations under this License Agreement; or (iii) the Development by or on behalf of Bluebird or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees of Elected Candidate or Licensed Product, except in each case for those Losses for which Celgene has an obligation to indemnify Bluebird pursuant to Section 9.6(a), as to which Losses each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for the Losses; provided, however, that Bluebird will not be obligated to indemnify Celgene Indemnitees for any Losses to the extent that such Losses arise as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of a Celgene Indemnitee.
(c) Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims provided for in Sections 9.6(a) and 9.6(b) will be made solely by such Party to this License Agreement (the “ Indemnified Party ”). The Indemnified Party will promptly notify the indemnifying Party (an “ Indemnification Claim Notice ”) of any Losses or the discovery of any fact upon which the Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 9.6(a) and 9.6(b), but in no event will the indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and estimated amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss is known at such time). The Indemnified Party will furnish promptly to the indemnifying Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses and Third Party Claims.

(d) Defense, Settlement, Cooperation and Expenses.
(i) Control of Defense. At its option, the indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice, provided however that (i) the Third Party Claim solely seeks monetary damages and (ii) the indemnifying Party expressly agrees in writing that as between the indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, the indemnifying Party will be solely obligated to satisfy and discharge the Third Party Claim in full and is able to reasonably demonstrate that it has sufficient financial resources (the matters described in (i) and (ii), the “ Litigation Conditions ”). The assumption of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the indemnifying Party will not be construed as an acknowledgment that the indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of the Third Party Claim, nor will it constitute a waiver by the indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the indemnifying Party (the indemnifying Party will consult with the Indemnified Party with respect to a possible conflict of interest of such counsel retained by the indemnifying Party). In the event the indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will immediately deliver to the indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party in connection with the Third Party Claim. Should the indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, except as provided in Section 9.6(d)(ii), the indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal costs or expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party may, at any time, assume the defense of a Third Party Claim if at any time the Litigation Conditions are not satisfied with respect to such Claim. In the event that it is ultimately determined that the indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will reimburse the indemnifying Party for any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs of suit) and any Third Party Claims incurred by the indemnifying Party in its defense of the Third Party Claim.
(ii) Right to Participate in Defense. Without limiting Section 9.6(d)(i), any Indemnified Party will be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment will be at the Indemnified Party’s own cost and expense unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying Party in writing, (ii) the indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 9.6(d)(i) (in which case the Indemnified Party will control the defense), (iii) the interests of the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both Parties under applicable Law, ethical rules or equitable principles, or (iv) the indemnifying Party no longer satisfies the Litigation Conditions, in which case the indemnifying Party will assume [***]percent ([***]%) of any such costs and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Party.

(iii) Settlement. With respect to any Third Party Claims that relate solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnified Party’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affecting the business of the Indemnified Party in any manner, and as to which the indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder, and subject to the Litigation Conditions being satisfied, the indemnifying Party will have the sole right to agree to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, will deem appropriate. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 9.6(d)(i), the indemnifying Party will have authority to agree to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The indemnifying Party will not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnified Party that is reached without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnified Party will admit any liability with respect to or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
(iv) Cooperation. If the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will, and will cause each other Indemnified Party to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours afforded to indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnified Parties and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection therewith.
(v) Costs and Expenses. Except as provided above in this Section 9.6(d), the costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any claim will be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.
9.7 Insurance. Each Party will maintain at its sole cost and expense, an adequate liability insurance or self-insurance program (including product liability insurance) to protect against potential liabilities and risk arising out of activities to be performed under this License Agreement, and any agreement related hereto and upon such terms (including coverages, deductible limits and self-insured retentions) as are customary in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry for the activities to be conducted by such Party under this License Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, such liability insurance or self-insurance program will insure against

all types of liability, including personal injury, physical injury or property damage arising out of the manufacture, sale, use, distribution or marketing of Licensed Product. The coverage limits set forth herein will not create any limitation on a Party’s liability to the other under this License Agreement.
 
10.	Term and Termination.	
10.1 Term. This License Agreement will commence as of the License Agreement Effective Date and, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms hereof or by mutual written consent, will continue on a country-by-country basis, until there are no more payments owed Bluebird on Licensed Product in such country (the longest such period of time for any Licensed Product hereunder, the “ License Agreement Term ”). Upon there being no more such payments hereunder for any such Licensed Product in such country, the licenses contained in Section 3.1 for such Licensed Product will become fully paid up and will remain exclusive with respect to such Licensed Product in such country.
10.2 Termination by Bluebird.
(a) Breach. Bluebird will have the right to terminate this License Agreement in full upon delivery of written notice to Celgene in the event of any material breach by Celgene of any terms and conditions of this License Agreement in a manner that fundamentally frustrates the transactions contemplated by this License Agreement, provided that such termination will not be effective if such breach, has been cured within [***] after written notice thereof is given by Bluebird to Celgene specifying the nature of the alleged breach (or, if such default cannot be cured within such [***] after such notice if Celgene commences actions to cure such default within such [***] and thereafter diligently continues such actions, but fails to cure the default by the end of such [***]); provided, however, that to the extent such material breach involves the failure to make a payment when due, such breach must be cured within [***] after written notice thereof is given by Bluebird to Celgene.
(b) [***]
10.3 Termination by Celgene.
(a) Breach. Celgene will have the right to terminate this License Agreement in full upon delivery of written notice to Bluebird in the event of any material breach by Bluebird of any terms and conditions of this License Agreement in a manner that fundamentally frustrates the transactions contemplated by this License Agreement, provided that such termination will not be effective if such breach has been cured within [***] after written notice thereof is given by Celgene to Bluebird specifying the nature of the alleged breach (or, if such default cannot be cured within such [***] period, within [***] days after such notice if Bluebird commences actions to cure such default within such [***] period and thereafter diligently continues such actions, but fails to cure the default by the end of such [***]).
(b) Discretionary Termination. Beginning with [***], Celgene will have the right to terminate this License Agreement in full at its discretion for any reason by delivering written notice to Bluebird, such termination to be effective [***] following the date of such notice.

cure periods thereunder), in lieu of exercising such termination right, Celgene may elect once by written notice to Bluebird before the end of such applicable cure period to have this License Agreement continue in full force and effect and instead have, starting immediately after the end of such applicable cure period, any future Milestone Payments set forth in Section 4.2 and the royalty rates set forth in the table set forth in Section 4.3(a) be reduced by [***], provided that such reduction will not apply if such future Milestone Payments and royalty rates have already been reduced pursuant to Section 11.4(c) of the Master Collaboration Agreement.
10.4 Effects of Termination. Upon termination (but not expiration pursuant to Section 10.1) of this License Agreement for any reason:
(a) Wind Down. Celgene will responsibly wind-down, in accordance with accepted pharmaceutical industry norms and ethical practices, any on-going clinical studies for which it has responsibility hereunder in which patient dosing has commenced or, if reasonably practicable and requested by Bluebird, allow Celgene, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees to complete such trials. Celgene will be responsible for any costs associated with such wind-down. Bluebird will pay all costs incurred by either Party to complete such studies should Bluebird request that such studies be completed.
(b) Sublicenses. A termination of this License Agreement will not automatically terminate any sublicense granted by Celgene pursuant to Section 3.3 for Commercialization rights with respect to a non-Affiliated Sublicensee, provided that (i) such Sublicensee is not then (a) in material breach of any provision of this License Agreement or (b) in material breach of the applicable sublicense agreement or otherwise in breach of such sublicense agreement in a manner that would give rise to a right of termination on the part of Celgene, (ii) if Bluebird terminates this License Agreement pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(iii) for Celgene’s failure to fulfill its payment obligations hereunder, such Sublicensee agrees to and does pay to Bluebird all outstanding amounts that accrued as a result of such Sublicensee’s activities under the sublicense, (iii) Bluebird will have the right to step into the role of Celgene as sublicensor under any such sublicense executed after the License Agreement Effective Date, with all the rights that Celgene had under such sublicense, solely with respect to the Licensed IP, prior to termination of this License Agreement (including the right to receive any payments to Celgene by such Sublicensee that accrue from and after the date of the termination of this License Agreement solely with respect to the Licensed IP), (iv) such Sublicensee will pay to Bluebird all amounts that Celgene would have been obligated to pay to Bluebird hereunder with respect to such Sublicensee’s activities had this License Agreement not terminated (less any amounts received by Bluebird in clause (iii) above) and (v) the survival of such sublicense will not result in an imposition of any additional obligations on the part of Bluebird that are not included within the scope of this License Agreement. Celgene will include in any sublicense agreement executed after the License Agreement Effective Date that relates solely to the Licensed IP a provision in which said Sublicensee acknowledges its obligations to Bluebird under this Section 10.4(b).
(c) Cessation of Rights. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Sections 10.4(b), all rights and licenses granted by Bluebird to Celgene in Section 3.1 will terminate, and Celgene and its Affiliates and Sublicensees will cease all use of Licensed IP and all Development, Manufacture and Commercialization of Elected Candidate and Licensed Product.

(d) Regulatory Approvals. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, and subject to Bluebird paying commercially reasonable compensation to Celgene for the assets to be transferred pursuant to this Section 10.4(d) (such compensation to either be mutually agreed to or determined through arbitration as provided in Section 10.4(g) below, and such compensation to be reduced by [***] from what would be commercially reasonable compensation if this License Agreement is terminated by Bluebird pursuant to Section 10.2(a)), all Regulatory Approvals and other regulatory filings and communications owned (in whole or in part) or otherwise Controlled by Celgene and its Affiliates and Sublicensees solely relating to the Elected Candidate and/or Licensed Product, and all other documents solely relating to and necessary to further Develop and Commercialize Elected Candidate and Licensed Product, as such items exist as of the effective date of such termination (including all solely related completed and ongoing clinical studies) will be assigned to Bluebird, and Celgene will provide to Bluebird one (1) copy of the foregoing and all documents contained in or referenced in any such items, together with the raw and summarized data for any clinical studies (and where reasonably available, electronic copies thereof). In the event of failure to obtain assignment, subject to the Parties agreeing on commercially reasonable compensation for the right to access and reference, Celgene hereby consents and grants to Bluebird the right to access and reference (without any further action required on the part of Celgene, whose authorization to file this consent with any Regulatory Authority is hereby granted) any such item.
(e) Licenses. Subject to Bluebird paying (i) commercially reasonable compensation to Celgene for the licenses to be granted pursuant to subsection (1) of this Section 10.4(e) (such compensation to either be mutually agreed to or determined through arbitration as provided in Section 10.4(g) below, and such compensation to be reduced by [***] from what would be commercially reasonable compensation if this License Agreement is terminated by Bluebird pursuant to Section 10.2(a)), and (ii) amounts payable to Celgene’s applicable licensors as set forth below, Celgene will grant to Bluebird and its Affiliates (1) a worldwide, perpetual and irrevocable, nontransferable (except in connection with a permitted assignment of this License Agreement in accordance with Section 11.12), exclusive license, with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers (subject to Section 3.3(b),  mutatis mutandis ), under the Celgene Licensed Product IP, and (2) an exclusive sublicense under the Celgene Licensed Product In-Licensed IP, in each case ((1) and (2)) to the extent such Celgene Licensed Product IP and Celgene Licensed Product In-Licensed IP are used in or Cover the Licensed Product as of the effective date of termination and to the extent such Celgene Licensed Product IP and Celgene Licensed Product In-Licensed IP exist as of the effective date of such termination (including in each case any additions, divisions, continuations, continuations-in-part, invention certificates, substitutions, reissues, reexaminations, extensions, registrations, supplementary protection certificates and renewals of such Celgene Licensed Product IP and Celgene Licensed Product In-Licensed IP) solely to the extent necessary to research, Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize the Elected Candidate and Licensed Product. With respect to grants of a sublicense under subsection (2) above, Bluebird will be responsible for all amounts payable to the applicable licensor, excluding maintenance fee payments, payments that are trigged by the grant of a sublicense (but including payments triggered by further grants of sublicenses by Bluebird or its sublicensees) and Patent Costs, that are attributable to Bluebird as a sublicensee thereunder under this License Agreement and Celgene will pay same and Bluebird will

reimburse Celgene for [***] of such payments within thirty (30) days of receipt of Celgene’s written invoice therefor. Celgene will provide Bluebird with copies of all applicable Celgene Licensed Product In-Licenses promptly following the effective date of the termination of this License Agreement. The Prosecution and Maintenance and enforcement and defense rights and obligations of the Parties with respect to any Patents licensed or sublicensed to Bluebird pursuant to this Section 10.4(e) will be discussed and agreed to by the Parties, with the understanding that such Prosecution and Maintenance and enforcement and defense rights and obligations will be substantially similar to those set forth in Sections 6, with the roles of Bluebird and Celgene reversed (and such other changes as are appropriate from the context, and taking into account any rights retained by a Third Party licensor of Celgene to Prosecute and Maintain or enforce and defend any Patent sublicensed to Bluebird under this Section 10.4(e)). Bluebird will abide, and will cause all its Affiliates and applicable sublicensees to abide, by all requirements of each Celgene Licensed Product In-License under which Bluebird is sublicensed under this Section 10.4(e) in all material respects (and in any case in all respects in the case that failure to so abide would result in a breach under the Celgene Licensed Product In-License), to the extent applicable to sublicensees thereunder and to the extent disclosed by Celgene to Bluebird, with the understanding that disclosure by Celgene of any Celgene Licensed Product In-License to Bluebird will be deemed disclosure of such requirements of such Celgene Licensed Product In-License to Bluebird.
(f) Trademarks.

(g) Baylor Product License. If the Licensed Product is subject to a Baylor Product License, then Celgene will, at Bluebird’s written request, assign to Bluebird the applicable Baylor Product License in accordance with the terms of Section 13.5 thereof, provided that if such Baylor Product License applies to other products, Celgene will assign or sublicense to Bluebird that portion of the Baylor Product License that applies to the Licensed Product, and with the consequences therein stated (that is, Celgene will remain responsible for all payments accruing thereunder before the assignment, and Bluebird will be responsible for all payments accruing thereunder after such assignment).
(h) Commercially Reasonable Compensation. If the Parties are unable to agree on the amount of commercially reasonable compensation payable by Bluebird to Celgene pursuant to Sections 10.4(d), 10.4(e) or 10.4(f) within ten (10) days of the effective date of termination of this License Agreement, [***]
(i) Country Termination. If this License Agreement is terminated only with respect to a specific country pursuant to Section 10.2(b), the provisions of this Section 10.4 will apply only with respect to such terminated country.

2.2 Roles and Responsibilities; Diligence.
(a) The JGC will assign to each Party roles and responsibilities for performing the U.S. Development & Commercialization Program. Each Party, directly or through one or more of its Affiliates, Sublicensees or permitted subcontractors, will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to perform the obligations assigned to such Party by the JGC under the U.S. Development & Commercialization Program. Each Party will reasonably cooperate with the other Party in performing such obligations.
(b) Celgene will assume sole responsibility for, and control of, Developing Elected Candidate and Licensed Product in the Field outside of the United States, and will establish a ROW Development & Commercialization Program for that purpose. Bluebird will reasonably cooperate with Celgene in such ROW Development & Commercialization Program.
2.3 Technical Assistance. During the Collaboration Program Term, Bluebird will reasonably cooperate with Celgene to provide all technical assistance, and to transfer to Celgene any additional Know-How licensed to Celgene under Section 10.1, requested by Celgene to facilitate the transfer of Development efforts related to Elected Candidate and Licensed Product. Such cooperation will include providing Celgene with reasonable access by teleconference or in-person at Bluebird’s facilities to Bluebird personnel involved in the research and Development of Elected Candidate to provide Celgene with a reasonable level of technical assistance and consultation in connection with the transfer of such Know-How. Following the Collaboration Program Term, Bluebird will reasonably cooperate with Celgene to provide reasonable amounts of technical assistance, including to transfer to Celgene any additional Know-How licensed to Celgene under Section 10.1, with respect to Elected Candidate or Licensed Product as reasonably requested by Celgene with reasonable advance notice to Bluebird. Any dispute with respect to the amount and completeness of the technical assistance and cooperation to be provided by Bluebird under this Section 2.3 will be referred to and finally resolved by binding arbitration by a mutually agreeable, disinterested, conflict-of-interest-free individual not affiliated or consulting with either Party. Any such arbitration will be conducted under the then-current rules of the American Arbitration Association.
 
3.	Governance and Joint Governance Committee.

(iii) Address all matters specifically delegated to the JGC pursuant to this CCPS Agreement;

(vi) Attempt to resolve any disputes on an informal basis.
(d) Decision-making. The three (3) JGC representatives of each Party will collectively have one (1) vote, and the JGC will make decisions only by unanimous consent of each Party with respect to its vote, and each Party will act reasonably in exercising its vote. [***]
(e) Limits on JGC Authority. Each Party will retain the rights, powers and discretion granted to it under this CCPS Agreement and no such rights, powers, or discretion will be delegated to or vested in the JGC unless such delegation or vesting of rights is expressly provided for in this CCPS Agreement or the Parties expressly so agree in writing. The JGC will not have the power to, nor will the Party having the tie-breaking vote in the JGC have the power to (i) amend, modify or waive compliance with this CCPS Agreement (other than as expressly permitted hereunder), (ii) alter, increase or expand the Parties’ rights or obligations under this CCPS Agreement (other than as permitted by Section 2.2), (iii) determine that a Party has

In addition, Celgene will provide Bluebird and its counsel with an opportunity to consult with Celgene and its counsel regarding Prosecution and Maintenance of any such Specific Patents, and Celgene will include or reflect all reasonable comments timely made by Bluebird and its counsel. Celgene acknowledges and agrees that Bluebird may grant similar rights to other exclusive Third Party licensees under any Patent within the Bluebird Licensed IP that has claims Covering only a product that is not a Licensed Product (or its manufacture or use) and no other product (or its manufacture or use), other than Specific Patents. If the Parties cannot agree whether or not any Patent within the Bluebird Licensed IP is a Specific Patent, or if Bluebird claims that the foregoing Prosecution and Maintenance activities would materially harm any other Patent within the Bluebird Licensed IP or other Patents owned by Bluebird or any of its Affiliates, either of the Parties may refer such dispute to a mutually agreeable, disinterested, conflict-of-interest-free individual not affiliated or consulting with either Party and who has at least fifteen (15) years of patent prosecution experience in the pharmaceutical field.

Upon receipt of each such notice by such first Party, such other Party will have the right, but not the obligation, to notify such first Party in writing on a timely basis that such other Party will continue the Prosecution or Maintenance of such Patent on terms the Parties shall mutually agree; it being understood that only U.S. Patents controlled by Celgene will be subject to this sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon receipt of each such notice by Bluebird, Celgene will have the right, but not the obligation, to notify Bluebird in writing on a timely basis that Celgene will assume control of the Prosecution or Maintenance of such Patent within the Bluebird Licensed IP, and bear the Patent Costs thereafter incurred by Celgene with respect thereto. In addition, Celgene will provide Bluebird and its counsel with an opportunity to consult with Celgene and its counsel regarding Prosecution and Maintenance of any such Patents, and Celgene will include or reflect all reasonable comments timely made by Bluebird and its counsel. If after making such election, Celgene elects not to pay the Patent Costs associated with Prosecution or Maintenance of any such Patent, then in each such case Celgene will so notify Bluebird and on the ninetieth (90 th ) day after Bluebird’s receipt of such notice such Patent will no longer be licensed to Celgene hereunder and will no longer be included within the “Bluebird Licensed IP” hereunder.
13.5 Third Party Rights.

16.6 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by Celgene. Celgene will indemnify Bluebird, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, Third Party licensors and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, “ Bluebird Indemnitees ”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “ Losses ”) in connection with any and all suits, investigations, claims or demands of Third Parties (collectively, “ Third Party Claims ”) against the Bluebird Indemnitees arising from or occurring as a result of: (i) the material breach by Celgene of any term of this CCPS Agreement; (ii) any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Celgene in performing its obligations under this CCPS Agreement; (iii) the Development or Commercialization by or on behalf of Celgene or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees of Elected Candidate or Licensed Product for ROW Administration, and (iv) [***] except in each case for those Losses for which Bluebird has an obligation to indemnify Celgene pursuant to Section 11.6(b), as to which Losses each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability; provided, however, that Celgene will not be obligated to indemnify Bluebird Indemnitees for any Losses to the extent that such Losses arise as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Bluebird Indemnitee.
(b) Indemnification by Bluebird. Bluebird will indemnify Celgene, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, “ Celgene Indemnitees ”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all Losses in connection with any and all Third Party Claims against the Celgene Indemnitees arising from or occurring as a result of: (i) the material breach by Bluebird of any term of this CCPS Agreement; (ii) any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Bluebird in performing its obligations under this CCPS Agreement; or (iii) the Development by or on behalf of Bluebird or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees of Elected Candidate or Licensed Product, except in each case for those Losses for which Celgene has an obligation to indemnify Bluebird pursuant to Section 11.6(a), as to which Losses each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for the Losses; provided, however, that Bluebird will not be obligated to indemnify Celgene Indemnitees for any Losses to the extent that such Losses arise as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of a Celgene Indemnitee.
(c) Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims provided for in Sections 11.6(a) and 11.6(b) will be made solely by such Party to this CCPS Agreement (the “ Indemnified Party ”). The Indemnified Party will promptly notify the indemnifying Party (an “ Indemnification Claim Notice ”) of any Losses or the discovery of any fact upon which the Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 11.6(a) and 11.6(b), but in no event will the indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and estimated amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss is known at such time). The Indemnified Party will furnish promptly to the indemnifying Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses and Third Party Claims.
(d) Defense, Settlement, Cooperation and Expenses.
(i) Control of Defense. At its option, the indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty

(30) days after the indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice, provided however that (A) the Third Party Claim solely seeks monetary damages and (B) the indemnifying Party expressly agrees in writing that as between the indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, the indemnifying Party will be solely obligated to satisfy and discharge the Third Party Claim in full and is able to reasonably demonstrate that it has sufficient financial resources (the matters described in (A) and (B), the “ Litigation Conditions ”). The assumption of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the indemnifying Party will not be construed as an acknowledgment that the indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of the Third Party Claim, nor will it constitute a waiver by the indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the indemnifying Party (the indemnifying Party will consult with the Indemnified Party with respect to a possible conflict of interest of such counsel retained by the indemnifying Party). The Indemnified Party may, at any time, assume the defense of a Third Party Claim if at any time the Litigation Conditions are not satisfied with respect to such Claim. In the event the indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will immediately deliver to the indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party in connection with the Third Party Claim. Should the indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, except as provided in Section 11.6(d)(ii) the indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal costs or expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim. In the event that it is ultimately determined that the indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will reimburse the indemnifying Party for any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs of suit) and any Third Party Claims incurred by the indemnifying Party in its defense of the Third Party Claim.
(ii) Right to Participate in Defense. Without limiting Section 11.6(d)(i), any Indemnified Party will be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment will be at the Indemnified Party’s own cost and expense unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying Party in writing, (ii) the indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 11.6(d)(i) (in which case the Indemnified Party will control the defense), (iii) the interests of the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both Parties under applicable Law, ethical rules or equitable principles, or (iv) the indemnifying Party no longer satisfies the Litigation Conditions, in which case the indemnifying Party will assume [***] percent ([***]%) of any such costs and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Party.
(iii) Settlement. With respect to any Third Party Claims that relate solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnified Party’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affecting the business of the Indemnified Party in any manner, and as to which the indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party

hereunder, and subject to the Litigation Conditions being satisfied, the indemnifying Party will have the sole right to agree to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, will deem appropriate. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 11.6(d)(i), the indemnifying Party will have authority to agree to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The indemnifying Party will not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnified Party that is reached without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnified Party will admit any liability with respect to or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
(iv) Cooperation. If the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will, and will cause each other Indemnified Party to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours afforded to indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnified Parties and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection therewith.
(v) Costs and Expenses. Except as provided above in this Section 11.6(d), the costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any claim will be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.
16.7 Insurance. Each Party will maintain at its sole cost and expense, an adequate liability insurance or self-insurance program (including product liability insurance) to protect against potential liabilities and risk arising out of activities to be performed under this CCPS Agreement, and any agreement related hereto and upon such terms (including coverages, deductible limits and self-insured retentions) as are customary in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry for the activities to be conducted by such Party under this CCPS Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, such liability insurance or self-insurance program will insure against all types of liability, including personal injury, physical injury or property damage arising out of the manufacture, sale, use, distribution or marketing of Licensed Product. The coverage limits set forth herein will not create any limitation on a Party’s liability to the other under this CCPS Agreement.

16.8 U.S. Administration Liabilities. In the event that either Party (i) incurs any Losses in connection with a Third Party Claim for personal injury or death caused by the use of Licensed Product for U.S. Administration, or (ii) is required to make payments to any Third Party in order to acquire a license or other rights under Patents or Know-How necessary for the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Licensed Product for U.S. Administration (collectively, “ U.S. Administration Liabilities ”), such U.S. Administrative Losses arising from or occurring as a result of the performance, in good faith, of the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Licensed Product for U.S. Administration in accordance with this CCPS Agreement will be charged to such Party’s Operating Profit or Loss under the Profit & Loss Share, provided that Operating Profit or Loss will not include U.S. Administration Liabilities of a Party or its Affiliates: (1) that are caused by a breach of this CCPS Agreement by such Party or its Affiliates; (2) incurred with respect to or allocable to products other than Licensed Product for U.S. Administration; or (3) that are subject to indemnification by such Party pursuant to Section 16.6 (and for clarity, if a Third Party makes a Third Party Claim directly against Bluebird (or any of its Affiliates) or Celgene (or any of its Affiliates), respectively, that would otherwise be indemnified by Bluebird or Celgene, respectively, if such Third Party Claim had been made against the other Party (or any of its Affiliates), then U.S. Administration Liabilities incurred by Bluebird or Celgene in connection with such direct Third Party Claim will not be included in the calculation of Operating Profit or Loss).
 
17.	Term and Termination.	
17.1 Term. This CCPS Agreement will commence as of the CCPS Agreement Effective Date and, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms hereof or by mutual written consent, will continue on a country-by-country basis, until there are no more payments owed one or the other Party on Licensed Product in such country (the longest such period of time for any Licensed Product hereunder, the “ CCPS Agreement Term ”); for clarity, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms hereof or by mutual written consent, this CCPS Agreement Term will continue in all events until Licensed Product is no longer being Developed or Commercialized in the United States. Upon there being no more such payments hereunder for any such Licensed Product in such country (other than the United States), the licenses contained in Section 10.1 will become fully paid up and will remain exclusive with respect to such Licensed Product in such country.
17.2 Termination by Bluebird.
(a) Breach. Bluebird will have the right to terminate this CCPS Agreement in full upon delivery of written notice to Celgene in the event of any material breach by Celgene of any terms and conditions of this CCPS Agreement in a manner that fundamentally frustrates the transactions contemplated by this CCPS Agreement, provided that such termination will not be effective if such breach, has been cured within [***] after written notice thereof is given by Bluebird to Celgene specifying the nature of the alleged breach (or, if such default cannot be cured within such [***] after such notice if Celgene commences actions to cure such default within such [***] and thereafter diligently continues such actions, but fails to cure the default by the end of such [***]); provided, however, that to the extent such material breach involves the failure to make a payment when due, such breach must be cured within [***] after written notice thereof is given by Bluebird to Celgene.

(b) [***]
(c) Termination of the Profit & Loss Share. Bluebird will have the right to terminate the Profit & Loss Share by delivering written notice to Celgene, such termination to be effective [***] following the date of such notice. Promptly following such notice, the Parties will enter into a license agreement with respect to the United States and the ROW, which agreement will be substantially identical to the License Agreement attached as  Exhibit A  to the Master Collaboration Agreement, with such changes that the Parties may, acting reasonably, mutually agree are required in order to address any specific facts or circumstances existing at the time of such termination. The Parties will enter into such license agreement no later than the effective date of such termination and, if such license agreement is not entered into prior the expiration of such [***], upon execution, the effective date of such license agreement will be deemed to be the effective date of such termination. For clarity, (i) termination of the Profit & Loss Share pursuant to this Section 17.2(c) will not release Bluebird from any obligation or liability which, at the time of the effective date of such termination, has already accrued to Celgene or which is attributable to a period prior to the effective date of such termination, and (ii) any events that have already occurred before the effective date of such termination (such as achievement of any milestones) will not trigger any payment obligation by Celgene to Bluebird under such executed license agreement (other than, for clarity, the Milestone Payment based on the Pivotal Study if not already paid or accrued under this CCPS Agreement).
17.3 Termination by Celgene.
(a) Breach. Celgene will have the right to terminate this CCPS Agreement in full upon delivery of written notice to Bluebird in the event of any material breach by Bluebird of any terms and conditions of this CCPS Agreement in a manner that fundamentally frustrates the transactions contemplated by this CCPS Agreement, provided that such termination will not be effective if such breach has been cured within [***] after written notice thereof is given by Celgene to Bluebird specifying the nature of the alleged breach (or, if such default cannot be cured within such [***] period, within [***] after such notice if Bluebird commences actions to cure such default within such [***] period and thereafter diligently continues such actions, but fails to cure the default by the end of such [***]).
(b) Discretionary Termination. Beginning with [***], Celgene will have the right to terminate this CCPS Agreement in full, at its discretion for any reason, by delivering written notice to Bluebird, such termination to be effective [***] following the date of such notice.
(c) [***]
(d) Alternative to Termination Under Section 17.3(a). If Celgene has the right to terminate this CCPS Agreement under Section 17.3(a) or 17.3(c) (including expiration of all applicable cure periods thereunder), in lieu of exercising such termination right, Celgene may elect once by written notice to Bluebird before the end of such applicable cure period to have this CCPS Agreement continue in full force and effect and instead have, starting immediately after the end of such applicable cure period, any future Milestone Payments set forth in Section 11.2(b) and the royalty rates set forth in the table set forth in Section 11.3(a) be reduced by [***], provided that such reduction will not apply if such future Milestone Payments and royalty rates have already been reduced pursuant to Section 11.4(c) of the Master Collaboration Agreement.

17.4 Effects of Termination or Expiration. Upon termination (but not expiration pursuant to Section 17.1) of this CCPS Agreement for any reason:
(a) Wind Down. Celgene will responsibly wind-down, in accordance with accepted pharmaceutical industry norms and ethical practices, any on-going clinical studies for which it has responsibility hereunder in which patient dosing has commenced or, if reasonably practicable and requested by Bluebird, allow Celgene, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees to complete such trials. Celgene will be responsible for any costs associated with such wind-down. Bluebird will pay all costs incurred by either Party to complete such studies should Bluebird request that such studies be completed.
(b) Sublicenses. A termination of this CCPS Agreement will not automatically terminate any sublicense granted by Celgene pursuant to Section 10.3 for Commercialization rights with respect to a non-Affiliated Sublicensee, provided that (i) such Sublicensee is not then (a) in material breach of any provision of this CCPS Agreement or (b) in material breach of the applicable sublicense agreement or otherwise in breach of such sublicense agreement in a manner that would give rise to a right of termination on the part of Celgene, (ii) if Bluebird terminates this CCPS Agreement pursuant to Section 17.2(a) for Celgene’s failure to fulfill its payment obligations hereunder, such Sublicensee agrees to and does pay to Bluebird all outstanding amounts that accrued as a result of such Sublicensee’s activities under the sublicense, (iii) Bluebird will have the right to step into the role of Celgene as sublicensor under any such sublicense executed after the CCPS Agreement Effective Date, with all the rights that Celgene had under such sublicense, solely with respect to the Bluebird Licensed IP, prior to termination of this CCPS Agreement (including the right to receive any payments to Celgene by such Sublicensee that accrue from and after the date of the termination of this CCPS Agreement solely with respect to the Bluebird Licensed IP), (iv) such Sublicensee will pay to Bluebird all amounts that Celgene would have been obligated to pay to Bluebird hereunder with respect to such Sublicensee’s activities had this CCPS Agreement not terminated (less any amounts received by Bluebird in clause (iii) above) and (v) the survival of such sublicense will not result in an imposition of any additional obligations on the part of Bluebird that are not included within the scope of this CCPS Agreement. Celgene will include in any sublicense agreement executed after the CCPS Agreement Effective Date that relates solely to the Bluebird Licensed IP a provision in which said Sublicensee acknowledges its obligations to Bluebird under this Section 17.4(b).

Press Release
bluebird bio Announces Global Strategic Collaboration with Celgene to Advance Gene Therapy in Oncology
- Separately, Celgene and bluebird bio to collaborate with the Center for Cell and Gene Therapy to advance new and existing CAR T cell programs
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.—March XX, 2013 — bluebird bio, a privately-held biotechnology company focused on gene therapy, today announced the formation of a broad, global strategic collaboration with Celgene Corporation to discover, develop and commercialize novel disease-altering gene therapies in oncology. The collaboration will focus on applying gene therapy technology to genetically modify a patient’s own T-cells, known as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells, to target and destroy cancer cells. The multi-year research and development collaboration has the potential to lead to the development and commercialization of multiple CAR T-cell products. Celgene has an option to license any products resulting from the collaboration after the completion of a Phase 1 clinical study for each such product. bluebird will be responsible for research and development activity through Phase 1 studies.
Simultaneous with this announcement, Celgene and bluebird bio also announced a related strategic collaboration in the CAR T-cell field with the Center for Cell and Gene Therapy at Baylor College of Medicine, Texas Children’s Hospital and The Methodist Hospital, Houston led by Malcolm Brenner, M.D., Ph.D., professor, Department of Molecular and Human Genetics and the director, Center for Cell and Gene Therapy. bluebird bio, Celgene and Dr. Brenner’s team will work collaboratively to advance and develop existing and new products and programs in the CAR T cell field.
“The genetic manipulation of autologous T cells is a new frontier in oncology, one that shows early promise in emerging clinical trials,” said Tom Daniel, President, Research & Early Development at Celgene. “We see strong prospects for this collaboration between Celgene, bluebird bio and Baylor College of Medicine’s experienced leaders in this emerging field, led by Dr. Brenner, to advance this innovative approach to intractable problems in oncology.”
“We believe that our recent advances in the industrialization of our gene therapy platform will drive improvements in the potency, purity, efficiency and scalability of our lentiviral gene therapy programs. These advances provide us with an opportunity to apply our platform, intellectual property and know-how to the development of additional product candidates in indications such as CAR T-cells for cancer,” stated Jeff Walsh, chief operating officer of bluebird bio. “Celgene is a global leader in oncology and, combined with Baylor’s expertise in the CAR T-cell field, we have created a great opportunity to drive innovation in a new and exciting area.”
Financial terms of the agreement include a substantial upfront payment and up to $225 million per product in potential option fees and clinical and regulatory milestones. bluebird bio also has the right to participate in the development and commercialization of any licensed products resulting from the collaboration through a 50/50 co-development and profit share in the United States in exchange for a reduction of milestones. Royalties would also be paid in regions where there is no profit share including in the United States if bluebird declines to exercise their co-development and profit sharing rights.

About CAR T-Cell Therapy
CAR T-cell therapy represents a promising, emerging approach to treating cancer. Blood is withdrawn from a patient and the T-cells are then extracted from a patient’s blood. These cells are then genetically modified to recognize and attack cancer cells and then re-introduced into the patient’s blood. The patient’s genetically modified cells are intended to bind to and kill the target cancer cells.

Exhibit L
Call Option
 
1.	Call Option.	
 
1.1	Notice. In the event that, during the Call Option Period, a Call Option Triggering Event occurs, then Bluebird will give Celgene written notice of such Call Option Triggering Event (a “ Call Option Triggering Event Notice ”). In the event that such Call Option Triggering Event occurring during the Call Option Period is a Bluebird Call Option Triggering Event, Bluebird will not commence a process intended to result in (or does result in) a Corporate Event until after delivery of the Call Option Triggering Event Notice to Celgene. For purposes of this Exhibit L, the “ Call Option Period ” means the period, if any, beginning on the date of termination of provisions set forth in Section 6.1 through 6.8 of the Agreement and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 1.11 below, ending on the earliest to occur of: (i) expiration of the Initial Collaboration Term, unless Celgene has elected to extend the Initial Collaboration for the First Collaboration Program Extension pursuant to Section 2.1(d), and (ii) expiration of the First Collaboration Program Extension if Celgene has elected to extend the Initial Collaboration for the First Collaboration Program Extension pursuant to Section 2.1(d), even if Celgene has elected to extend the Collaboration Term for Second Collaboration Term Extension;  provided that  the Parties understand and agree that if the Call Option Period would otherwise terminate prior to the expiration of the applicable Call Option Exercise Period (as such Call Option Exercise Period may be extended by Bluebird from time to time) then the Call Option Period shall automatically be extended such that it shall expire on the same day as the expiration of the applicable Call Option Exercise Period (as such Call Option Exercise Period may be extended by Bluebird from time to time).	
 
1.2	Exercise; Diligence Process. Celgene shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise the Call Option by delivery of written notice to Bluebird (the “ Call Option Exercise Notice ”) at any time prior to the expiration of the Call Option Exercise Period. Upon request made by Celgene during the Call Option Exercise Period, Bluebird will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide Celgene with reasonable access to such scientific, technical, clinical, manufacturing, regulatory and other information and such personnel, at reasonable times and on a reasonable number of occasions, as may be reasonably necessary for Celgene to determine its own internal estimate of the Call Option Exercise Price. For clarity, Bluebird shall be under no obligation to share with Celgene its own internal estimate of the Call Option Exercise Price, if any. If Celgene fails to exercise the Call Option by delivery of written notice to Bluebird or otherwise delivers written notice to Bluebird of its decision not to exercise the Call Option, in either case, prior to the expiration of the Call Option Exercise Period, then (a) the procedures specified in Section 1.6 below will automatically terminate

 	without any obligation on either Party to consummate the Call Option and (b) Bluebird shall be free to consummate a Corporate Event without any further obligation to Celgene under this Exhibit L,  provided that , if a Corporate Event is not publicly announced within nine (9) months following the Call Option Triggering Event Notice described above, then, if during the remaining portion of the Call Option Period, a subsequent Call Option Triggering Event occurs, the procedures set forth in this Exhibit L will apply with respect to such subsequent Call Option Triggering Event.	
 
1.3	Payment. If the Call Option has been exercised as of the expiration of the Call Option Exercise Period, then, effective as of the expiration of the Call Option Exercise Period, Celgene will be required to pay Bluebird at the Call Option Closing (defined below) an amount in cash equal to the Call Option Exercise Price determined in accordance with the procedures specified in Section 1.6 below which Call Option Exercise Price will be binding on both Parties (unless otherwise mutually agreed in accordance with Section 1.6(i)), subject only to the conditions and exceptions specified in Section 1.4 and Section 1.10 below. Subject to satisfaction of the conditions and exceptions specified in Section 1.4 and Section 1.10 below and final determination of the Call Option Exercise Price, Celgene will make such payment, and Bluebird will consummate the matters it is contemplated by this Exhibit L to perform on the date of such payment, all on the later of (a) the date of consummation of the applicable Corporate Event involving Bluebird (the “ Other Closing ”), and (b) ten (10) business days advance written notice by Bluebird to Celgene of such Other Closing (such later date, the “ Call Option Closing ”).	
 
1.4	Government Approvals. The Call Option Closing and all payment obligations of Celgene set forth in Section 1.3 shall be conditioned upon Receipt of Regulatory Approvals. As used herein, “ Receipt of Regulatory Approvals ” means that all regulatory approvals required to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Call Option Closing shall have been obtained and shall remain in full force and effect through the Call Option Closing and all statutory waiting periods applicable to the Call Option Closing shall have expired or been terminated. Except for any Non-Required Remedy (defined below), each of Celgene and Bluebird shall use its commercially reasonable good faith efforts to obtain all requisite consents of any court or government authority regarding the exercise of the Call Option, including, if required by federal or state antitrust authorities, promptly taking all steps to secure government antitrust clearance, including cooperating in good faith with any government investigation including the prompt production of documents and information demanded by a second request for documents and of witnesses if requested, to the same extent and in the same manner (including with respect to the payment by Celgene of all fees required to be paid to any government authority in connection with any HSR Filing) as provided in Section 5.9 of this Agreement with respect to any proposed Development & Commercialization Agreement,  mutatis mutandis . In the event that the Parties make an HSR Filing under this Section 1.4, then the Call Option shall terminate (i) at the election of either Party, immediately upon notice to the other Party, in the event that the United States of America Federal Trade Commission or the United States of America Department of Justice obtains a preliminary injunction under the HSR Act against the Parties to enjoin the

The determination of the Call Option Exercise Price (which determination shall be binding in the event Celgene exercises the Call Option as provided in Section 1.2 above unless otherwise mutually agreed in accordance with Section 1.6(i)) will be made in accordance with the following process:	
 
 	a.	A panel of three (3) independent third party firms each of which is either (i) a nationally-recognized investment banking firm or (ii) a nationally-recognized valuation firm (each a “ Valuation Firm ”) will be selected by Bluebird and Celgene as promptly as practicable in accordance with the procedures set forth below, but in no event more than five (5) calendar days after Celgene’s receipt of the Call Option Triggering Event Notice. The Parties will share equally in the costs of the Valuation Firms in this process (regardless of outcome).	
 
 	b.	Bluebird and Celgene will mutually appoint one Valuation Firm who (A) in the prior two (2) years has not had, does not have and does not anticipate having any material commercial or other business relationship with Bluebird or Celgene or any of their respective Affiliates and (B) with the respect to the lead representative in charge of such assignment contemplated by this Section 1 on behalf of such Valuation Firm (the “Valuation Manager”), such Valuation Manager has at least ten (10) years professional experience in the valuation of biopharmaceutical development programs as an investment banker, valuation expert or healthcare consultant (such experience referenced in this clause (B), the “ Requisite Experience ”), which Valuation Firm shall be proposed by Bluebird and approved by Celgene (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (the “ Bluebird Designee ”).

 	e.	The engagement of the Valuation Firms selected shall be limited to the determination of the Call Option Exercise Price. In determining the Call Option Exercise Price, the Valuation Firms shall render their judgment as to what an independent Third Party would pay to Bluebird to acquire its rights and assume its obligations (including the unilateral exclusivity afforded to Celgene under the agreements referenced above and the In-License Payments that become due and payable by Celgene from and after the Call Option Closing, but excluding the Target Antigen License and all other rights described in Section 1.8 below), including without limitation the right to receive future payments and perform obligations under any existing Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement or License Agreement for Licensed Products (which shall take into account the rights and obligations associated solely with the co-promotion of Licensed Products by such independent Third Party and not any other products such Third Party may have the right to promote or sell) as well as for any IND Product Candidate, Declined Product Candidate or Pre-IND Product Candidate that is not the subject of an existing Co-Development, Co-Promote and Profit Share Agreement or License Agreement, as set forth in Section 1.5; it being understood that in no event will the Call Option Exercise Price include any value attributable to the Target Antigen License or other rights described in Section 1.8 below. Each of the Valuation Firms selected shall agree to complete the terms of its engagement within the time period prescribed hereunder. Each of Bluebird and Celgene shall provide reasonable access to its information and personnel, at reasonable times and on a reasonable number of occasions, to the Valuation Firms as may be reasonably necessary for the Valuation Firms to determine the Call Option Exercise Price, upon such Valuation Firm entering into a confidentiality agreement on terms reasonably satisfactory to the disclosing Party.	
 
 	f.	In the event that Celgene fails to exercise the Call Option by delivery of the Call Option Exercise Notice to Bluebird or otherwise delivers written notice to Bluebird of its decision not to exercise the Call Option, in either case, prior to the expiration of the Call Option Exercise Period, then the procedures specified in this Section 1.6 will automatically terminate, without any obligation on either Party to consummate the Call Option.	
 
 	g.
