☒	If checked, this Agreement is also subject to additional terms and conditions set forth in the attached Exhibit C. In the event of a conflict between any specific terms or conditions in this Agreement and Exhibit C, Exhibit C shall govern.

The parties hereby agree as follows:

Scope of Work and Payment

1.1

Research Project. The University will use reasonable efforts to perform the research project as described in the Statement of Work (the “SOW”) incorporated herein by reference as “Exhibit A: Research Project Statement of Work dated November 15, 2021” (the “Research Project”), in consideration for Sponsor making the payments in accordance with the milestones (the “Milestones”) specified in the SOW as described in Exhibit B (the “Costs of Research”). Unless otherwise set forth on Exhibit B, payments will be due within 30 days of the date of the University’s invoice. The Research Project will be supervised by Gregory Thatcher, Ph.D., employed by University (the “Principal Investigator”).

1.2

Reports. During the Term of this Agreement, the University shall provide the Sponsor with brief bi-weekly email reports outlining the work performed to date, the results obtained and planned next steps (the “Reports”). Such Reports shall be used by the University and Sponsor to make decisions in respect of the Milestones and make adjustments to the SOW, if necessary. A final report shall be in the form of manuscript for a publication to be co-authored by University and Sponsor scientists and prepared by the University within sixty (60) days following completion of the Research Project (the “Final Report”).

1.3

Non-Exclusivity of Research. Both parties acknowledge and agree that each party may engage in other research that is similar to the Research Project but not involving the same compounds of the Research Project, funded by public or private sources and conducted separately, and the other party has no rights or obligations with respect to such separate research.

1.4

Equipment and Supplies. Equipment and supplies purchased specifically to conduct the Research Project belong to University at the termination of this Agreement.

Term and Termination

2.1

Term. This Agreement begins on the Effective Date and will expire upon completion of the work specified in the SOW and delivery of the Final Report to Sponsor(the “Term”), unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.

2.2

Termination for Convenience. Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time upon ninety (90) days written notice to the other party. Sponsor may terminate this Agreement at any time upon thirty (30) days written notice to the University if it determines that the research results do not favorably support the development of a commercially viable drug based on the science of the Research Project.

2.3

Termination for Breach. Either party may terminate this Agreement in the event the other party commits a material breach of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, and fails to remedy such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the other party. The right to terminate for material breach is in addition to any other remedies which a party may have at law or in equity.2.4 Effect of Termination. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, University will work to close down the Research Project, including termination of any obligations in force (except those that are non-cancelable), and will notify Sponsor of those obligations remaining as of the date of termination. Sponsor will pay University all Costs of Research incurred by University up to the date of termination. Further, if Sponsor terminates for its convenience or if University terminates for Sponsor’s material breach, Sponsor will reimburse University for all costs associated with termination. Termination or expiration of this Agreement will not affect the rights and obligations of the parties that have accrued prior to the termination date, including non-cancellable commitments, and specifically the obligations set forth in Sections headed Confidentiality Obligations, Indemnification and Limitation of Liability and General Provisions will survive termination or expiration. If Sponsor terminates this Agreement prior to completion of the Research Project or if University terminates for material breach by Sponsor, the Intellectual Property rights set forth in the Section headed Intellectual Property will terminate; otherwise these rights will survive expiration of the Agreement.

Research Results

Sponsor and University agree that, in exchange for paying the Costs of Research, Sponsor may use the results of the research (“Research Results”) for any purpose, but may not publish Research Results prior to Principal Investigator’s publication of Research Results. The University retains ownership of the Research Results, and the right to publish as set forth in Section 5. Any Research Result that also constitutes Intellectual Property as set forth in Section 4.1 below is considered Intellectual Property, and is subject to the terms set forth in Section 4 below.

Intellectual Property

4.1

Ownership of Intellectual Property. The parties acknowledge that inventions, discoveries, and other technology that is patentable, or that is copyrightable software (“Intellectual Property”) may arise from the Research Project. University owns all Intellectual Property invented or authored by University personnel under the Research Project (“University Intellectual Property”). The parties will jointly own all Intellectual Property invented or authored jointly by University personnel and Sponsor personnel under the Research Project (“Joint Intellectual Property”). Inventorship and authorship will be determined in accordance with United States intellectual property laws. This Agreement does not grant either party any rights to any pre-existing Intellectual Property or to any Intellectual Property developed outside the scope of the Research Project.

4.2

Disclosure and Filing. All Intellectual Property arising from University’s performance of the Research Project will be disclosed to University’s tech transfer organization, Tech Launch Arizona, who will promptly provide Sponsor with a confidential written disclosure of the Intellectual Property. The University may file for patent or other protection for University Intellectual Property at its discretion, or at the request of the Sponsor. Sponsor will reimburse University for fees and expenses associated with patent prosecution or other protection if such actions are taken at Sponsor request, or if Sponsor seeks a license under Section 4.3. University will control patent prosecution on any University Intellectual Property. If Sponsor is reimbursing University, the parties will collaborate during the patent prosecution process, and the University will consider all of Sponsor’s input in good faith.

4.3

License to Intellectual Property. The University grants to Sponsor a non-exclusive right to use the University Intellectual Property for internal research purposes. The University also grants to Sponsor the first option to negotiate for a commercial, royalty-bearing license .under University Intellectual Property and University’s rights in Joint Intellectual Property within the field of use and territory to be mutually agreed by the parties. Sponsor may exercise this option by submitting a request in writing to University, and the parties will negotiate such license arrangement in good faith and on commercially reasonable terms. The option must be exercised in writing within three (3) months after completion of the Research Project and delivery of final report to Sponsor as specified in Section 2.1 (“Option Period”). If Sponsor fails to exercise the option within the Option Period, or if the parties do not reasonably agree on terms for a license within three (3) months after the date the Sponsor exercises the option, the University will have no further obligation to Sponsor with respect to a commercial license to that Intellectual Property.

4.4

Retained Rights. Without limiting any other rights it may have and even if Sponsor exercises its option as set forth in Section 4.3 above, the University specifically reserves the right in and to the University Intellectual Property and Joint Intellectual Property for any research, public service, and/or educational purposes, and to grant licenses to other academic institutions for these same reserved rights.

Publication

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the University and its employees have the right, at their discretion, to release information or to publish any data, writings, or material resulting from the Research Project, including Research Results and Intellectual Property, and to use it in any way for its educational and research purposes. The University will furnish the Sponsor with a copy of any proposed publication in advance of the proposed publication date and grant the Sponsor thirty (30) days for review and comment. Within this period, the Sponsor may request the University, in writing, to delay such publication for a maximum of an additional (60) days in order to protect the potential patentability of any invention described therein. Such delay will not, however, be imposed on the filing of any student thesis or dissertation. Sponsor’s failure to object to a publication or presentation within the thirty (30) day period above will be deemed acceptance by Sponsor.

SUNSHINE BIOPHARMA EXPANDS ANTI-CORONAVIRUS DRUG DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM BY SIGNING A COLLABORATION AGREEMENT WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA

Montreal, Canada – (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Sunshine Biopharma Inc. (NASDAQ: “SBFM” and SBFMW) (the “Company” or “Sunshine Biopharma”), a pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of oncology and antiviral drugs today announced that it has entered into an agreement with the University of Arizona for the purposes of advancing the development of novel PLpro inhibitors discovered by University of Arizona and University of Illinois Chicago researchers. The development of the Company’s lead PLpro inhibitor, SBFM-PL4, is currently continuing at the University of Georgia.
