“1.56 “Clinical Trial” means human clinical trial of a biopharmaceutical product and “Phase 1 Clinical Trial” and “Pivotal Clinical Trial” shall have the following meanings:
CLS-23165-AM02
For clarity, initiation of a Clinical Trial that combines or may combine (i) a Phase 1 Clinical Trial with (ii) a Pivotal Clinical Trial, shall not be deemed as initiation of a Pivotal Clinical Trial unless and until the first patient is dosed in the Pivotal Clinical Trial portion (meeting the requirements set out in the above definition of such Clinical Trial).
This Amendment shall become effective on the Amendment Effective Date.
This Amendment, together with the JRCA and the Side Letter dated June 19, 2025 (the “Side Letter”), constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of the JRCA. The JRCA, the Side Letter, together with this Amendment supersede all prior agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter of the JRCA, as amended. Each Party confirms that it is not relying on any statements, representations, warranties or covenants of any person (whether a Party to the JRCA and this Amendment or not) except as specifically set out in the JRCA as amended. Nothing in this Amendment is intended to limit or exclude any liability for fraud.
