Item 17. Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriter, at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriter 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 Securities and Exchange Commission 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 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

II-3

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 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 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.

II-4

WHEREAS, Brandeis through research conducted by Dagmar Ringe, Gregory Petsko and Xu Simon (the “Inventors”), has developed an invention pertaining to by Brandeis Case No. 1092 “Protein Therapy for ALS”, for which Brandeis has filed patent applications.

WHEREAS, as a center for research and education, Brandeis desires to license the Patent Rights and thus benefit the public and Brandeis by facilitating the dissemination of the results of its research in the form of useful products. However, Brandeis itself does not have the capacity to commercially develop, manufacture or distribute the Licensed Products, and is therefore willing to grant an exclusive license to the Licensee in the technology.

WHEREAS, Licensee having such capacity, desires to commercially develop, manufacture, use and distribute such Licensed Products.

WHEREAS, Brandeis and Fidelity Biosciences Corp, (as defined herein) have entered into a Research Agreement (as defined herein) and Brandeis and Fidelity Biosciences Corp, have acknowledged that this Agreement is an Alternative Arrangement (as defined in the Research Agreement), which shall be in lieu of and not in addition to the license set forth in the Research Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants of this Agreement, the parties agree:

Transfer of a Licensed Product within the Licensee or between Licensee, Sublicensee or an Affiliate shall not be considered a sale, commercial use or disposition for the purpose of the foregoing paragraphs; in the case of such transfer the Gross Sales Price shall be based on sale of the Licensed Product by the transferee. If a Seller commercially uses or disposes of any Licensed Product by itself other than in an arm’s length sale to a bona fide customer, the Gross Sales Price hereunder shall be the price which would be then payable in an arm’s length transaction.

4. PAYMENTS AND REPORTS

4.1 Fees and Royalties. In consideration for the rights, privileges and license granted under this Agreement, Licensee shall pay to Brandeis the fees, equity and royalties set forth in Exhibit A. In each year the amount of royalty and sublicense fees due shall be calculated quarterly as of the end of each Accounting Period and shall be paid within [***] ([***]) days following the end of such Accounting Period.

4.2 Late Payments. If any payment due under this Agreement is not paid within [***] ([***]) days of the date upon which such payment is due, then interest shall accrue on such payment on a daily basis from the date such payment was originally due at a rate equal to [***] ([***]) month LIBOR (as published in The Wall Street Journal, New York edition) plus [***] percent ([***]%) per annum, calculated daily, or at the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is the lower, and such interest shall be paid when such payment is made. The payment of such interest shall not preclude the party receiving such interest from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment.

4.3 Conversion. All amounts payable by Licensee must be paid in United States dollars without deductions for taxes, assessments, fees, or charges of any kind. Royalties accruing on sales in countries other than the United States must be paid in United States dollars in amounts based on the rate of exchange as quoted in the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) as of the last business day of the reporting period. If the WSJ does not publish any such rate, a comparable rate publication will be agreed upon from time to time by the parties, and with respect to each country for which such rate is not published by the WSJ or in a comparable publication, the parties will use the prevailing rate for bank cable transfers for such date, as quoted by leading United States banks in Boston dealing in the foreign exchange market.

4.4 Records. Licensee shall keep complete and accurate records of its, and its Affiliates and Sublicensees’ Net Sales under the license granted in this Agreement in sufficient detail to enable the royalties payable hereunder to be determined. Such records shall be retained for at least [***] ([***]) years following the end of the Accounting Period to which such records relate. Licensee agrees to permit Brandeis or its representatives, at Brandeis’ expense and with [***] days written notice, to periodically examine its books, ledgers, and records during regular business hours for the purpose of and to the extent necessary to verify any report and payment required under this Agreement.

For Net Sales of a Licensed Product sold or supplied as a Combination Product, the Net Sales of such a Combination Product will be determined, subject to the provisions set forth below in this Section 1.12, by multiplying the actual Net Sales of such Combination Product in a particular country in the Territory by the fraction of A/(A+B), where A is the average Gross Sales billed or invoiced per unit of such Licensed Product in such country in the Territory during the period in respect of which Net Sales are being calculated of the Licensed Product sold separately and B is the total average Gross Sales billed or invoiced per unit in such country in the Territory of the other active ingredient (including a biologic product) or device included in the Combination Product during the period in respect of which Net Sales are being calculated, when sold separately. If neither the Licensed Product nor the other active ingredient (including a biologic product) or device included in the Combination Product are sold separately as a monotherapy during the period in respect of which Net Sales are being calculated, then the fair market value of the other active ingredient (including a biologic product) or device included in the Combination Product that is to be deducted from the Net Sales of the Combination Product in determining the Net Sales of the Licensed Product contained in the Combination Product shall be equal to the fair market value of such other active ingredient (including a biologic product) or device included in the Combination Product as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Merger Agreement for such Licensed Product. As used herein, a “Combination Product” means a product which comprises (a) a Product and (b) at least one other active ingredient (including a biologic product) or medical device.”

Subject to the above, Net Sales shall be calculated in accordance with United Kingdom generally accepted accounting principles (or U.K. GAAP), consistently applied with the past practice of the Licensee and its Affiliates.”
