NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2020

(Unaudited)

1. Organization and business

Incyte Corporation (including its subsidiaries, “Incyte,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing proprietary therapeutics. Our portfolio includes compounds in various stages, ranging from preclinical to late stage development, and commercialized products JAKAFI® (ruxolitinib), and ICLUSIG® (ponatinib). Our operations are treated as one operating segment.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements.

Although we believe that the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future interim period or for the entire year. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Principles of Consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Incyte Corporation and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts, transactions, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation.

Foreign Currency Translation. Operations in non-U.S. entities are recorded in the functional currency of each entity. For financial reporting purposes, the functional currency of an entity is determined by a review of the source of an entity's most predominant cash flows. The results of operations for any non-U.S. dollar functional currency entities are translated from functional currencies into U.S. dollars using the average currency rate during each month. Assets and liabilities are translated using currency rates at the end of the period. Adjustments resulting from translating the financial statements of our foreign entities that use their local currency as the functional currency into U.S. dollars are reflected as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Transaction gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense), net, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of Credit Risk. Cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and trade receivables are financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk. The estimated fair value of financial instruments approximates the carrying value based on available market information. We primarily invest our excess available funds in debt securities and, by policy, limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer and to any one type of investment,

Table of Contents

other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government and money market funds that meet certain guidelines. Our receivables mainly relate to our product sales of JAKAFI, ICLUSIG and collaborative agreements with pharmaceutical companies. We have not experienced any significant credit losses on cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, or trade receivables to date and do not require collateral on receivables.

Current Expected Credit Losses. Effective January 1, 2020, financial assets measured at amortized cost are assessed for future expected credit losses under guidance within ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, to determine if application of an expected credit losses reserve is necessary. On a quarterly basis, receivables that resulted from revenue transactions within the scope of ASC 606 and recognized on an amortized cost basis are reviewed on a customer-level basis to analyze expectations of future collections based upon past history of collections, payment, aging of receivables and viability of the customer to continue payment, as well as estimates of future economic conditions. Receivables generally consist of two types: receivables from collaborative agreements, including milestones, reimbursements for agreed-upon activities and sales royalties; and receivables from customer product sales. Collaborative agreement receivables are closely monitored relationships with select, reputable industry peers. Collection of receivables is assessed within each collaborative partnership on a quarterly basis, including evaluation of each entity’s credit quality, financial health and past history of payment. Customer product sales receivables are independently evaluated on a monthly basis, on which unusual items or aged receivables are closely monitored for signs of credit deterioration, or indications of payment refusal. Customer product sales are with specialty pharmaceutical distributors, wholesalers, and certain public and private institutions, some of which whose financial obligations are funded by various government agencies. These receivables are assessed for signs of credit deterioration and in the Company’s sales history and future expectations of economic conditions, there are minimal instances of bad debts or uncollected receivables.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are held in banks or in custodial accounts with banks. Cash equivalents are defined as all liquid investments and money market funds with maturity from date of purchase of 90 days or less that are readily convertible into cash.

Marketable Securities—Available-for-Sale. Our marketable securities consist of investments in U.S. government debt securities that are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, based on quoted market prices and observable inputs, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. We classify marketable securities that are available for use in current operations as current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other than temporary for available-for-sale securities are included in other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

Accounts Receivable. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had a de minimis allowance for doubtful accounts. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts based on experience and specifically identified risks. Accounts receivable are carried at fair value and charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when we determine that recovery is unlikely and we cease collection efforts.

Inventory. Inventories are determined at the lower of cost and net realizable value with cost determined under the specific identification method and may consist of raw materials, work in process and finished goods. JAKAFI and ICLUSIG raw materials and work-in-process inventory are not subject to expiration and the shelf life of finished goods inventory is 36 months from the start of manufacturing of the finished goods. We evaluate for potential excess inventory by analyzing current and future product demand relative to the remaining product shelf life. We build demand forecasts by considering factors such as, but not limited to, overall market potential, market share, market acceptance and patient usage. We classify inventory as current on the condensed consolidated balance sheets when we expect inventory to be consumed for commercial use within the next twelve months.

Variable Interest Entities. We perform an initial and ongoing evaluation of the entities with which we have variable interests, such as equity ownership, in order to identify entities (i) that do not have sufficient equity investment at risk to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or (ii) in which the equity investors lack an essential characteristic of a controlling financial interest as variable interest entities (“VIE” or “VIEs”). If an entity is identified as a VIE, we perform an assessment to determine whether we have both (i) the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) have the obligation to absorb losses from

Table of Contents

or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If both of these criteria are satisfied, we are identified as the primary beneficiary of the VIE. As of March 31, 2020, there were no entities in which we held a variable interest which we determined to be VIEs.

Long Term Investments. Our long term investments consist of equity investments in common stock of publicly-held companies with whom we have entered into collaboration and license agreements. We classify all of our equity investments in common stock of publicly-held companies as long term investments on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our equity investments are accounted for at fair value using readily determinable pricing available on a securities exchange on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. All changes in fair value are reported in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as an unrealized gain (loss) on long term investments.

In assessing whether we exercise significant influence over any of the companies in which we hold equity investments, we consider the nature and magnitude of our investment, any voting and protective rights we hold, any participation in the governance of the other company, and other relevant factors such as the presence of a collaboration or other business relationship. Currently, none of our equity investments in publicly-held companies are considered relationships in which we are able to assert control.

Property and Equipment, net. Property and equipment, net is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the assets or lease term.

Lease Accounting. Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, was adopted for the fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2019. All leases with a lease term greater than 12 months, regardless of lease type classification, are recorded as an obligation on the balance sheet with a corresponding right-of-use asset. Both finance and operating leases are reflected as liabilities on the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of the lease payments to be made over the lease term. Current operating lease liabilities are reflected in accrued and other current liabilities and noncurrent operating lease liabilities are reflected in other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use assets are valued at the initial measurement of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs or rent prepayments, minus lease incentives and any deferred lease payments. Operating lease right-of-use assets are recorded in property and equipment, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis. For finance leases, expense is recognized as separate amortization and interest expense, with higher interest expense in the earlier periods of a lease. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. In determining whether a contract contains a lease, asset and service agreements are assessed at onset and upon modification for criteria of specifically identified assets, control and economic benefit.

Other Intangible Assets, net. Other intangible assets, net consist of licensed intellectual property rights acquired in business combinations, which are reported at acquisition date fair value, less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets with finite lives are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. If indicators of impairment are present, the asset is tested for recoverability by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the related estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. If the expected cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, then the asset is considered to be impaired and its carrying value is written down to fair value, based on the related estimated discounted future cash flows.

Goodwill. Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred and the values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually as of October 1 or when a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment by assessing qualitative factors or performing a quantitative analysis in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of net assets are below their carrying amounts. A reporting unit is the same as, or one level below, an operating segment. Our operations are currently comprised of a single, entity wide reporting

Table of Contents

unit. We completed our most recent annual impairment assessment as of October 1, 2019 and determined that the carrying value of our goodwill was not impaired.

Income Taxes. We account for income taxes using the asset and liability approach which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts reportable for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The primary factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are our recent history of cumulative earnings or losses, expected reversals of taxable temporary timing differences, forecasts of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the deferred tax assets. Upon evaluating and weighting both positive and negative evidence, we concluded that we should continue to maintain the valuation allowance on the majority of our deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2020.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit that is recorded for these positions is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We adjust the level of the liability to reflect any subsequent changes in the relevant facts surrounding the uncertain positions. Any interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions are included within the tax provision.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law in March 2020 to provide an estimated $2.2 trillion designed to stimulate the U.S. economy during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Act includes tax relief, government loans, grants and investments for entities in affected industries, which has related accounting and financial reporting impacts. Disclosure for certain income tax accounting measures are required in the period of enactment and disclosure for government loans, investments, grants, and revenue recognition are required in future periods as federal agencies establish rules and procedures to implement the CARES Act. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we have not sought any financial relief under the CARES Act and have determined the income tax provision implications to be immaterial. We have further described the expected impact and risks of COVID-19 on our business in the overview to Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Financing Costs Related to Long-term Debt. Costs associated with obtaining long-term debt are deferred and amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method. Such costs are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the long-term debt liability, consistent with debt discounts, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share. Our basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during all periods presented. Options to purchase stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units and shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible debt are included in diluted earnings per share calculations, unless the effects are anti-dilutive.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) consists of unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities that are classified as available-for-sale, foreign currency translation gains or losses and defined benefit pension obligations.

Revenue Recognition. Revenue-generating contracts are assessed under ASC 606, Revenue from contracts with customers, to identify distinct performance obligations, determine the transaction price of the contract and allocate the transaction price to each of the distinct performance obligations. Revenue is recognized when we have satisfied a performance obligation through transferring control of the promised good or service to a customer. Control, in this instance, may mean the ability to prevent other entities from directing the use of, and receiving benefit from, a good or service. We determine at contract inception whether we will transfer control of a promised good or service over time or satisfy the performance obligation at a point in time through analysis of the following criteria: (i) the entity has a present right to payment, (ii) the customer has legal title, (iii) the customer has physical possession, (iv) the customer has the significant

Table of Contents

risks and rewards of ownership and (v) the customer has accepted the asset. We assess collectability based primarily on the customer’s payment history and on the creditworthiness of the customer.

Product Revenues

Our product revenues consist of U.S. sales of JAKAFI and European sales of ICLUSIG. Product revenues are recognized once we satisfy the performance obligation at a point in time under the revenue recognition criteria as described above. We sell JAKAFI to our customers in the U.S., which include specialty pharmacies and wholesalers. We sell ICLUSIG to our customers in the European Union and certain other jurisdictions, which include retail pharmacies, hospital pharmacies and distributors.

We recognize revenues for product received by our customers net of allowances for customer credits, including estimated rebates, chargebacks, discounts, returns, distribution service fees, patient assistance programs, and government rebates, such as Medicare Part D coverage gap reimbursements in the U.S. Product shipping and handling costs are included in cost of product revenues.

Customer Credits: Our customers are offered various forms of consideration, including allowances, service fees and prompt payment discounts. We expect our customers will earn prompt payment discounts and, therefore, we deduct the full amount of these discounts from total product sales when revenues are recognized. Service fees are also deducted from total product sales as they are earned.

Rebates and Discounts: Allowances for rebates include mandated discounts under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program in the U.S. and mandated discounts in Europe in markets where government-sponsored healthcare systems are the primary payers for healthcare. Rebates are amounts owed after the final dispensing of the product to a benefit plan participant and are based upon contractual agreements or legal requirements with public sector benefit providers. The accrual for rebates is based on statutory discount rates and expected utilization as well as historical data we have accumulated since product launches. Our estimates for expected utilization of rebates are based on data received from our customers. Rebates are generally invoiced and paid in arrears so that the accrual balance consists of an estimate of the amount expected to be incurred for the current quarter’s activity, plus an accrual balance for known prior quarters’ unpaid rebates. If actual future rebates vary from estimates, we may need to adjust prior period accruals, which would affect revenue in the period of adjustment.

Chargebacks: Chargebacks are discounts that occur when certain contracted customers, which currently consist primarily of group purchasing organizations, Public Health Service institutions, non-profit clinics, and Federal government entities purchasing via the Federal Supply Schedule, purchase directly from our wholesalers. Contracted customers generally purchase the product at a discounted price. The wholesalers, in turn, charges back to us the difference between the price initially paid by the wholesalers and the discounted price paid by the contracted customers. In addition to actual chargebacks received we maintain an accrual for chargebacks based on the estimated contractual discounts on the inventory levels on hand in our distribution channel. If actual future chargebacks vary from these estimates, we may need to adjust prior period accruals, which would affect revenue in the period of adjustment.

Medicare Part D Coverage Gap: Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit mandates manufacturers to fund 70% of the Medicare Part D insurance coverage gap for prescription drugs sold to eligible patients. Our estimates for the expected Medicare Part D coverage gap are based on historical invoices received and in part from data received from our customers. Funding of the coverage gap is generally invoiced and paid in arrears so that the accrual balance consists of an estimate of the amount expected to be incurred for the current quarter’s activity, plus an accrual balance for known prior quarters. If actual future funding varies from estimates, we may need to adjust prior period accruals, which would affect revenue in the period of adjustment. Additionally, beginning in January 2020, the amount of spending required by eligible patients in the Medicare Part D insurance coverage gap increased 30% due to the expiration of a provision in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which now results in a change in the True Out of Pocket (TrOOP) calculation methodology. The methodological change has resulted in an increase in required spending by patients and, in turn, an increase in manufacturers’ contributions on behalf of patients in the Medicare Part D insurance coverage gap.

Co-payment Assistance: Patients who have commercial insurance and meet certain eligibility requirements may receive co-payment assistance. We accrue a liability for co-payment assistance based on actual program participation and estimates of program redemption using data provided by third-party administrators.

Product Royalty Revenues

Royalty revenues on commercial sales for ruxolitinib (marketed as JAKAVI® outside the United States) by Novartis Pharmaceutical International Ltd. (“Novartis”) are based on net sales of licensed products in licensed territories as provided by Novartis. Royalty revenues on commercial sales for baricitinib (marketed as OLUMIANT) by Eli Lilly and Company (“Lilly”) are based on net sales of licensed products in licensed territories as provided by Lilly. We recognize royalty revenues in the period the sales occur.

Milestone and Contract Revenues

Our license agreements, which fall within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, include distinct drug compound out-licensing, collection of upfront payments, milestones or royalty revenues from a counterparty, and provision of commercially available products to suppliers. Our agreements often include contractual milestones, which typically relate to the achievement of pre-specified development, regulatory and commercialization events outside of our control, such as regulatory approval of a compound, first patient dosing or achievement of sales-based thresholds. For such cases, we believe that revenue related to these events should not be recognized until the milestone has been achieved.

Some contracts form collaborative arrangements of various types with third-parties. We assess whether the nature of the arrangement is within the scope of ASC 808, Collaborative Arrangements, in conjunction with the revenue recognition guidance in ASC 606 to determine the nature of the performance obligations and associated transaction prices. A collaborative relationship may exist when we participate in an activity or process with another party, such as performance of research and development services or the exchange of intellectual property for use in clinical trials, when both parties share in the risks and rewards that result from the activity and participate and govern contract activities through a joint steering committee.

The regulatory review and approval process, which includes preclinical testing and clinical trials of each drug candidate, is lengthy, expensive and uncertain. Securing approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) requires the submission of extensive preclinical and clinical data and supporting information to the FDA for each indication to establish a drug candidate’s safety and efficacy. The approval process takes many years, requires the expenditure of substantial resources, involves post-marketing surveillance and may involve ongoing requirements for post-marketing studies. Before commencing clinical investigations of a drug candidate in humans, we must submit an Investigational New Drug application (“IND”), which must be reviewed by the FDA.

The steps generally required before a drug may be marketed in the United States include preclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, submission to the FDA of an IND for human clinical testing, performance of adequate and well-controlled clinical trials in three phases, as described below, to establish the safety and efficacy of the drug for each indication, submission of a new drug application (“NDA”) or biologics license application (“BLA”) to the FDA for review and FDA approval of the NDA or BLA.

Similar requirements exist within foreign regulatory agencies as well. The time required satisfying the FDA requirements or similar requirements of foreign regulatory agencies may vary substantially based on the type, complexity and novelty of the product or the targeted disease.

Preclinical testing includes laboratory evaluation of product pharmacology, drug metabolism, and toxicity, which includes animal studies, to assess potential safety and efficacy as well as product chemistry, stability, formulation, development, and testing. The results of the preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted to the FDA as part of an IND. The FDA may raise safety concerns or questions about the conduct of the clinical trials included in the IND, and any of these concerns or questions must be resolved before clinical trials can proceed. We cannot be sure that submission of an IND will result in the FDA allowing clinical trials to commence. Clinical

Table of Contents

trials involve the administration of the investigational drug or the marketed drug to human subjects under the supervision of qualified investigators and in accordance with good clinical practices regulations covering the protection of human subjects. Clinical trials typically are conducted in three sequential phases, but the phases may overlap or be combined. Phase I usually involves the initial introduction of the investigational drug into healthy volunteers to evaluate its safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution and excretion. Phase II usually involves clinical trials in a limited patient population to evaluate dosage tolerance and optimal dosage, identify possible adverse effects and safety risks, and evaluate and gain preliminary evidence of the efficacy of the drug for specific indications. Phase III clinical trials usually further evaluate clinical efficacy and safety by testing the drug in its final form in an expanded patient population, providing statistical evidence of efficacy and safety, and providing an adequate basis for labeling. We cannot guarantee that Phase I, Phase II or Phase III testing will be completed successfully within any specified period of time, if at all. Furthermore, we, the institutional review board for a trial, or the FDA may suspend clinical trials at any time on various grounds, including a finding that the subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.

Generally, the milestone events contained in our collaboration agreements coincide with the progression of our drugs from development, to regulatory approval and then to commercialization. The process of successfully discovering a new development candidate, having it approved and successfully commercialized is highly uncertain. As such, the milestone payments we may earn from our partners involve a significant degree of risk to achieve. Therefore, as a drug candidate progresses through the stages of its life-cycle, the value of the drug candidate generally increases.

Cost of Product Revenues

Cost of product revenues includes all JAKAFI related product costs as well as ICLUSIG related product costs. In addition, cost of product revenues include low single-digit royalties under our collaboration and license agreement to Novartis on all future sales of JAKAFI in the United States and the amortization of our licensed intellectual property for ICLUSIG using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 12.5 years from the date of acquisition on June 1, 2016 of all of the outstanding shares of ARIAD Pharmaceuticals (Luxembourg) S.à.r.l. (since renamed Incyte Biosciences Luxembourg S.à.r.l.) from ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“ARIAD”). Cost of product revenues also includes employee personnel costs, including stock compensation, for those employees dedicated to the production of our commercial products.

Research and Development Costs. Our policy is to expense research and development costs as incurred, including amounts funded by research and development collaborations. Research and development expenses are comprised of costs we incur in performing research and development activities, including salary and benefits; stock-based compensation expense; outsourced services and other direct expenses, including clinical trial and pharmaceutical development costs; collaboration payments; expenses associated with drug supplies that are not being capitalized; and infrastructure costs, including facilities costs and depreciation expense. If a collaboration is a cost-sharing arrangement in which both we and our collaborator perform development work and share costs, we also recognize, as research and development expense in the period when our collaborator incurs development expenses, our portion of the co-development expenses that we are obligated to reimburse.

We often contract with clinical research organizations (“CROs”) to facilitate, coordinate and perform agreed upon research and development of a new drug. To ensure that research and development costs are expensed as incurred, we record monthly accruals for clinical trials and preclinical testing costs based on the work performed under the contract. These CRO contracts typically call for the payment of fees for services at the initiation of the contract and/or upon the achievement of certain clinical trial milestones. In the event that we prepay CRO fees, we record the prepayment as a prepaid asset and amortize the asset into research and development expense over the period of time the contracted research and development services are performed. Most professional fees, including project and clinical management, data management, monitoring, and medical writing fees are incurred throughout the contract period. These professional fees are expensed based on their percentage of completion at a particular date. Our CRO contracts generally include pass through fees. Pass through fees include, but are not limited to, regulatory expenses, investigator fees, travel costs, and other miscellaneous costs, including shipping and printing fees. We expense the costs of pass through fees under our CRO contracts as they are incurred, based on the best information available to us at the time. The estimates of the pass through fees incurred are based on the amount of work completed for the clinical trial and are monitored through correspondence with the CROs, internal reviews and a review of contractual terms. The factors utilized to derive the estimates include the

Table of Contents

number of patients enrolled, duration of the clinical trial, estimated patient attrition, screening rate and length of the dosing regimen. CRO fees incurred to set up the clinical trial are expensed during the setup period. Under our clinical trial collaboration agreements we may be reimbursed for certain development costs incurred. Such costs are recorded as a reduction of research and development expense in the period in which the related expense is incurred.

Stock Compensation. Share-based payment transactions with employees, which include stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance shares (“PSUs”), are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period based on their estimated fair values as well as expected forfeiture rates. The stock compensation process requires significant judgment and the use of estimates, particularly surrounding Black-Scholes assumptions such as stock price volatility over the option term and expected option lives, as well as expected forfeiture rates and the probability of PSUs vesting. The fair value of stock options, which are subject to graded vesting, are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period using the accelerated attribution method. The fair value of RSUs that are subject to cliff vesting are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period using the straight-line attribution method, and the fair value of RSUs that are subject to graded vesting are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period using the accelerated attribution method. The fair value of PSUs are recognized as compensation expense beginning at the time in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement, which we assess as of the end of each reporting period. Once a performance condition is considered probable, we record compensation expense based on the portion of the service period elapsed to date with respect to that award, with a cumulative catch-up, net of estimated forfeitures, and recognize any remaining compensation expense, if any, over the remaining requisite service period using the straight-line attribution method for PSUs that are subject to cliff vesting and using the accelerated attribution method for PSUs that are subject to graded vesting.

Long Term Incentive Plans. We have long term incentive plans which provide eligible employees with the opportunity to receive performance and service-based incentive compensation, which may be comprised of cash, stock options, restricted stock units and/or performance shares. The payment of cash and the grant or vesting of equity may be contingent upon the achievement of pre-determined regulatory, sales and internal performance milestones.

Acquisition-Related Contingent Consideration. Acquisition-related contingent consideration consists of our future royalty obligations on future net sales of ICLUSIG to Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, which acquired ARIAD (“Takeda”). Acquisition-related contingent consideration was recorded on the acquisition date of June 1, 2016 at the estimated fair value of the obligation, in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs that are unobservable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. The fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration is remeasured each reporting period, with changes in fair value recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Collaboration loss sharing. Under collaboration and license agreements with shared commercialization efforts, we record our share of the losses from the co-commercialization efforts in collaboration loss sharing on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, collaboration loss sharing represents our 50% share of the United States loss for commercialization of tafasitamab under our agreement with MorphoSys.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This guidance applies to all entities and impacts how entities account for credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost and available for sale debt securities. ASU 2016-13 requires financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amounts. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances. For trade receivables, loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, entities will be required to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of the asset. For available-for-sale debt securities, entities will be required to recognize an allowance for credit losses rather than an other-than-temporary impairment that reduces the cost basis of the investment. Further, an entity will recognize any improvements in estimated credit losses on its available-for-sale debt securities immediately in earnings.

Table of Contents

Upon adoption, we assessed each financial asset measured at amortized cost and each available for sale debt security held for the impact of the guidance as of January 1, 2020 and noted an insignificant impact due to the minimal credit risk associated with our financial assets subject to ASC 326. As such, it was concluded that a reserve for credit losses was de minimis on the adoption date. Financial assets will continue to be assessed on a quarterly basis in future periods.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement,” which eliminates the required disclosure of the amount of and reason for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The guidance also eliminates the required disclosure of the entity’s valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurements, however public entities are required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We adopted this guidance for the period beginning January 1, 2020 and enhanced our disclosures in Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements to comply with the standard.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General,” an update to Subtopic ASC 715-20. The guidance amended year-end disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension plans, and does not affect interim disclosures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020 and is permitted for early adoption. The standard is to be applied on a retrospective basis. Incyte sponsors defined benefit plans for employees located in Europe. We are currently analyzing the impact of ASU No. 2018-14 on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software,” an update to Subtopic ASC 350-40. The guidance directs accounting for service contracts for cloud computing arrangements to follow guidance within ASC 350-40 to determine capitalization of implementation costs. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and may be applied on either a retrospective or prospective basis. We adopted this guidance for the period beginning January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis. New contracts for development of internal-use software were assessed and no qualifying contracts were identified during the period. We will continue to assess contracts and will disclose material, qualifying contracts if identified in future periods.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, “Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and Topic 606.” The guidance clarifies the interactions between Topic 808 and Topic 606, including clarifications on revenue recognition, unit of account, and reporting disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We adopted this guidance for the period beginning January 1, 2020 on a retrospective to the date of our initial application of ASC 606, and noted that in assessment of our collaborative agreements, there was no material financial statement impact. Our collaborative arrangements and their associated accounting conclusions are described in detail within Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This guidance applies to all entities and aims to reduce the complexity of tax accounting standards while enhancing reporting disclosures. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted for any annual periods for which financial statements have not been issued and interim periods therein. We are currently analyzing the impact of ASU No. 2019-12 and do not anticipate the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

4. Fair value of financial instruments

FASB accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (“the exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. In determining fair value we use quoted prices and observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. The fair value hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the source of inputs as follows:

Level 1—Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Valuations based on observable inputs and quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities.

Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and models that are significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Our marketable securities consist of investments in U.S. government debt securities that are classified as available-for-sale.

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our Level 2 U.S. government debt securities were valued using readily available pricing sources which utilize market observable inputs, including the current interest rate and other characteristics for similar types of investments. Our long term investments classified as Level 1 were valued using their respective closing stock prices on The Nasdaq Stock Market. We did not experience any transfers of financial instruments between the fair value hierarchy levels during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Contingent consideration earned during the period but not yet paid		(8,627)
Change in fair value of contingent consideration		6,627
Balance at March 31,	$	275,000

The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined on the date of acquisition, June 1, 2016, using an income approach based on estimated ICLUSIG revenues in the European Union and other countries for the approved third line treatment over 18 years, and discounted to present value at a rate of 10%. The fair value of the contingent consideration is remeasured each reporting period, with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The valuation inputs utilized to estimate the fair value of the contingent consideration as of March 31, 2020 included a weighted average cost of capital of 10% and updated projections of future ICLUSIG revenues in the European Union and other

Table of Contents

countries for the approved third line treatment. The change in fair value of the contingent consideration during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was due primarily to the passage of time as there were no other significant changes in the key assumptions during the period.

We make payments to Takeda quarterly based on the royalties or any additional milestone payments earned in the previous quarter. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, contingent consideration earned but not yet paid was $8.6 million and $23.0 million, respectively, and was included in accrued and other current liabilities.

The following is a summary of our marketable security portfolio for the periods presented (in thousands):


			Net		Net
	Amortized		Unrealized		Unrealized		Estimated
	Cost		Gains		Losses		Fair Value
March 31, 2020
Debt securities (government)	$	258,622	$	729	$	—	$	259,351

December 31, 2019
Debt securities (government)	$	284,795	$	75	$	—	$	284,870

Our available-for-sale debt securities generally have contractual maturity dates of between 12 to 18 months. Debt security assets were assessed for risk of expected credit losses per our accounting policy as described in Note 2. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the available-for-sale debt securities were held in US-government backed funds and Treasury assets and were assessed on an individual security basis to have a de minimis risk of credit loss.

5. Concentration of credit risk and current expected credit losses

In November 2009, we entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Novartis. In December 2009, we entered into a license, development and commercialization agreement with Lilly. In December 2018, we entered into a research collaboration and licensing agreement with Innovent Biologics, Inc. (“Innovent”). In July 2019, we entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Zai Lab (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Zai Lab Limited (collectively, “Zai Lab”). The above collaboration partners comprised, in aggregate, 24% and 30% of the accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. For further information relating these collaboration and license agreements, refer to Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2011, we began commercialization and distribution of JAKAFI to a number of customers. Our product revenues are concentrated in a number of these customers that are specialty pharmacies and wholesalers. The concentration of credit risk related to our JAKAFI product revenues is as follows:


	Percentage of Total Net
	Product Revenues for the
	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2020		2019
Customer A	19	%	18	%
Customer B	13	%	15	%
Customer C	18	%	16	%
Customer D	11	%	12	%

We are exposed to risks associated with extending credit to customers related to the sale of products. Customers A, B, C and D comprised, in aggregate, 40% and 39% of the accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The concentration of credit risk relating to ICLUSIG product revenues or accounts receivable is not significant.

We assessed our collaborative and customer receivable assets as of March 31, 2020 according to our accounting policy for applying reserves for expected credit losses, noting minimal history of uncollectible receivables and the

Table of Contents

continued perceived creditworthiness of our third party sales relationships, upon which the expected credit losses were considered de minimis.

6. Inventory

Our inventory balance consists of the following (in thousands):


	March 31,		December 31,
	2020		2019
Raw materials	$	1,275	$	1,275
Work-in-process		11,228		8,634
Finished goods		9,714		6,596
		22,217		16,505
Inventories-current		13,977		11,400
Inventories-noncurrent	$	8,240	$	5,105

Inventories, stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, consist of raw materials, work in process and finished goods. At March 31, 2020, $14.0 million of inventory was classified as current on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as we expect this inventory to be consumed for commercial use within the next twelve months. At March 31, 2020, $8.2 million of inventory was classified as noncurrent on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as we did not expect this inventory to be consumed for commercial use within the next twelve months. We obtain some inventory components from a limited number of suppliers due to technology, availability, price, quality or other considerations. The loss of a supplier, the deterioration of our relationship with a supplier, or any unilateral violation of the contractual terms under which we are supplied components by a supplier could adversely affect our total revenues and gross margins.

In February 2018, we signed an agreement to rent a building in Morges, Switzerland for an initial term of 15 years plus one year of free rent, with multiple options to extend for an additional 20 years. The building will serve as our new European headquarters and will consist of approximately 100,000 square feet of office space. This building will allow for consolidation of our European operations that are currently located in Geneva and Lausanne, Switzerland. Building permits were granted by the local government authorities in September 2018 and construction activity began immediately thereafter. In June 2019, we obtained control of the Morges building to begin our construction activity. At that time, we determined the lease to be a finance lease and recorded a lease liability of $31.1 million and a finance lease right-of-use asset of $29.1 million, net of a lease incentive from our landlord of $2.0 million. As of March 31, 2020, we have capitalized approximately $18.2 million in on site preparation, design and construction costs.

In July 2018, we signed an agreement to purchase land located in Yverdon, Switzerland. The land was purchased, in cash, for approximately $4.8 million. Upon this parcel, we are constructing a large molecule production facility.

Table of Contents

Construction activity commenced in July 2018 and as of March 31, 2020, we have capitalized approximately $102.8 million in costs for construction, ground preparation and architectural and engineering studies. We currently anticipate the facility will be completed in the second half of 2020.

We are the lessee of several contracts, including those to secure fleet vehicles, buildings and equipment. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. Some of our building leases include options to renew and the exercise of these options is at our discretion. Our current operating lease liabilities are reflected in accrued and other current liabilities and our noncurrent operating lease liabilities are reflected in other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are as follows (in thousands):

The cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of our operating lease liabilities as of March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $3.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively, in operating cash flows. The cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of our finance lease liabilities as of March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $0.2 million in financing cash flows.

As of March 31, 2020, our finance and operating leases had a weighted average lease term of approximately 15.4 and 3.1 years, respectively. The discount rate of our leases is an approximation of an estimated incremental borrowing rate and is dependent upon the term and economics of each agreement. The weighted average discount rate of our finance and operating leases is approximately 3.6% and 4.4%, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we incurred approximately $3.2 million of expense related to our operating leases, approximately $0.6 million of amortization on our finance lease right-of-use assets and approximately $0.3 million of interest expense on our finance lease liabilities. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we incurred approximately $3.6 million of expense related to our operating leases, approximately $0.2 million of amortization on our finance lease right-of-use assets and a de minimis amount of interest expense on our finance lease liabilities. Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was approximately $3.5 million and $3.3 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the cost of our short term leases with a term less than 12 months was de minimis.

9. License agreements

Novartis

In November 2009, we entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement with Novartis. Under the terms of the agreement, Novartis received exclusive development and commercialization rights outside of the United States to our JAK inhibitor ruxolitinib and certain back-up compounds for hematologic and oncology indications, including all hematological malignancies, solid tumors and myeloproliferative diseases. We retained exclusive development and commercialization rights to JAKAFI (ruxolitinib) in the United States and in certain other indications. Novartis also received worldwide exclusive development and commercialization rights to our MET inhibitor compound capmatinib and certain back-up compounds in all indications. We retained options to co-develop and to co-promote capmatinib in the United States.

Under this agreement, we received an upfront payment and immediate milestone payment totaling $210.0 million and were initially eligible to receive up to $1.2 billion in milestone payments across multiple indications upon the achievement of pre-specified events, including up to $174.0 million for the achievement of development milestones, up to $495.0 million for the achievement of regulatory milestones and up to $500.0 million for the achievement of commercialization milestones. In April 2016, we amended this agreement to provide that Novartis has exclusive research, development and commercialization rights outside of the United States to ruxolitinib (excluding topical formulations) in the graft-versus-host-disease (“GVHD”) field. We became eligible to receive up to $75.0 million of additional potential development and regulatory milestones relating to GVHD. We recognize development and regulatory milestones upon confirmation of achievement of the event, as development and regulatory approvals are events not controllable by us but rather development activities of Novartis and decisions made by regulatory agencies. We recognize sales milestones in the corresponding period of the product sale upon confirmation of net sales milestone threshold achievement by Novartis.

Exclusive of the upfront payment of $150.0 million received in 2009 and the immediate milestone of $60.0 million earned in 2010, we have recognized and received in the aggregate $132.0 million for the achievement of development milestones, $215.0 million for the achievement of regulatory milestones and $120.0 million for the achievement of sales milestones through March 31, 2020. In 2018, we recognized a $60.0 million sales milestone for Novartis achieving annual net sales of a JAK licensed product of $900.0 million. In 2017, we recognized a $40.0 million sales milestone for Novartis achieving annual net sales of a JAK licensed product of $600.0 million and a $25.0 million development milestone based on the formal initiation by Novartis of a Phase III clinical trial evaluating ruxolitinib in GVHD.

We also are eligible to receive tiered, double-digit royalties ranging from the upper-teens to the mid-twenties on future JAKAVI net sales outside of the United States, and tiered, worldwide royalties on future capmatinib net sales that range from 12% to 14%. Since the achievement of the $60.0 million regulatory milestone related to reimbursement of JAKAVI in Europe in September 2014, we are obligated to pay to Novartis tiered royalties in the low single-digits on future JAKAFI net sales within the United States. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, such royalties payable to Novartis on net sales within the United States totaled $17.5 million and $13.4 million, respectively, and are reflected in cost of product revenues on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $56.3 million and $50.2 million, respectively, of accrued royalties payable to Novartis were included in accrued and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Each company is responsible for costs relating to the development and commercialization of ruxolitinib in its respective territories, with costs of

Table of Contents

collaborative studies shared equally. Novartis is also responsible for all costs relating to the development and commercialization of capmatinib.

The Novartis agreement will continue on a program-by-program basis until Novartis has no royalty payment obligations with respect to such program or, if earlier, the termination of the agreement or any program in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Royalties are payable by Novartis on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis until the latest to occur of (i) the expiration of the last valid claim of the licensed patent rights covering the licensed product in the relevant country, (ii) the expiration of regulatory exclusivity for the licensed product in such country and (iii) a specified period from first commercial sale in such country of the licensed product by Novartis or its affiliates or sublicensees. The agreement may be terminated in its entirety or on a program-by-program basis by Novartis for convenience. The agreement may also be terminated by either party under certain other circumstances, including material breach.

Reimbursable costs incurred after the effective date of the agreement with Novartis are recorded net against the related research and development expenses. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of reimbursable costs were included in accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were net of $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of costs reimbursed by Novartis.

Milestone and contract revenue under the Novartis agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $0.0 million for each period. Product royalty revenue related to Novartis net sales of JAKAVI outside of the United States for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $56.3 million and $45.6 million, respectively. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $56.3 million and $65.0 million, respectively, of product royalties were included in accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Lilly - Baricitinib

In December 2009, we entered into a License, Development and Commercialization Agreement with Lilly. Under the terms of the agreement, Lilly received exclusive worldwide development and commercialization rights to our JAK inhibitor baricitinib, and certain back-up compounds for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. We received an upfront payment of $90.0 million, and were initially eligible to receive up to $665.0 million in substantive milestone payments across multiple indications upon the achievement of pre-specified events, including up to $150.0 million for the achievement of development milestones, up to $365.0 million for the achievement of regulatory milestones and up to $150.0 million for the achievement of commercialization milestones. Exclusive of the upfront payment of $90.0 million received in 2009, we have recognized and received, in aggregate, $149.0 million for the achievement of development milestones and $235.0 million for the achievement of regulatory milestones through March 31, 2020. We recognize development and regulatory milestones upon confirmation of achievement of the event, as development and regulatory approvals are events not controllable by us but rather development activities of Lilly and decisions made by regulatory agencies. We recognize sales milestones in the corresponding period of the product sale upon confirmation of net sales milestone threshold achievement by Lilly.

In January 2016, Lilly submitted an NDA to the FDA and a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) to the European Medicines Agency for baricitinib as treatment for rheumatoid arthritis. In February 2017, we and Lilly announced that the European Commission approved baricitinib as OLUMIANT for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients who have responded inadequately to, or who are intolerant to, one or more disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. In July 2017, Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare granted marketing approval for OLUMIANTfor the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in patients with inadequate response to standard-of-care therapies. In June 2018, the FDA approved the 2mg dose of OLUMIANT for the treatment of adults with moderately-to-severely active rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response to one or more tumor necrosis factor inhibitor therapies.

In 2018, we recognized a $20.0 million development milestone for the first patient treated in the systemic lupus erythematosus Phase III program for baricitinib and a $100.0 million regulatory milestone for the FDA approval of the 2mg dose of OLUMIANT (baricitinib) for the treatment of adults with moderately-to-severely active rheumatoid arthritis. In 2017, we recognized a $30.0 million development milestone for the first patient treated in the atopic dermatitis Phase

III program for baricitinib, $15.0 million regulatory milestone for the approval of baricitinib for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and a $65.0 million regulatory milestone for the approval of baricitinib for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients by the European Commission.

We retained options to co-develop our JAK1/JAK2 inhibitors with Lilly on a compound-by-compound and indication-by-indication basis. Lilly is responsible for all costs relating to the development and commercialization of the compounds unless we elect to co-develop any compounds or indications. If we elect to co-develop any compounds and/or indications, we would be responsible for funding 30% of the associated future global development costs from the initiation of a Phase IIb trial through regulatory approval, including post-launch studies required by a regulatory authority. We would receive an incremental royalty rate increase across all tiers resulting in effective royalty rates ranging up to the high twenties on potential future global net sales for compounds and/or indications that we elect to co-develop. For indications that we elect not to co-develop, we would receive tiered, double-digit royalty payments on future global net sales with rates ranging up to 20% if the product is successfully commercialized. If we have started co-development funding for any indication, we can at any time opt out and stop future co-development cost sharing. If we elect to do this we would still be eligible for our base royalties plus an incremental pro-rated royalty commensurate with our contribution to the total co-development cost for those indications for which we co-funded. We previously had retained an option to co-promote products in the United States but, in March 2016, we waived our co-promotion option as part of an amendment to the agreement.

In July 2010, we elected to co-develop baricitinib with Lilly in rheumatoid arthritis and became responsible for funding 30% of the associated future global development costs for this indication from the initiation of the Phase IIb trial through regulatory approval, including post-launch studies required by a regulatory authority. We subsequently elected to co-develop baricitinib with Lilly in psoriatic arthritis, atopic dermatitis, alopecia areata, systemic lupus erythematosus and axial spondyloarthritis and were responsible for funding 30% of future global development costs for those indications through regulatory approval, including post-launch studies required by a regulatory authority. In April 2019, we elected to end additional co-funding of the development of baricitinib effective as of January 1, 2019. We will continue to receive royalties on global net sales of OLUMIANT, pursuant to the terms in the Lilly agreement, as described above.

The Lilly agreement will continue until Lilly no longer has any royalty payment obligations or, if earlier, the termination of the agreement in accordance with its terms. Royalties are payable by Lilly on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis until the latest to occur of (i) the expiration of the last valid claim of the licensed patent rights covering the licensed product in the relevant country, (ii) the expiration of regulatory exclusivity for the licensed product in such country and (iii) a specified period from first commercial sale in such country of the licensed product by Lilly or its affiliates or sublicensees. The agreement may be terminated by Lilly for convenience, and may also be terminated under certain other circumstances, including material breach.

Milestone and contract revenue under the Lilly agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $0.0 million for each period. Product royalty revenue related to Lilly global net sales of OLUMIANT for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $25.4 million and $16.0 million, respectively. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $25.4 million and $23.6 million, respectively, of product royalties were included in accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Lilly - Ruxolitinib

In March 2016, we entered into an amendment to the agreement with Lilly that amended the non-compete provision of the agreement to allow us to engage in the development and commercialization of ruxolitinib in the GVHD field. Upon execution of the amendment, we paid Lilly an upfront payment of $35.0 million and Lilly is eligible to receive up to $40.0 million in regulatory milestone payments relating to ruxolitinib in the GVHD field. In May 2019, the approval of JAKAFI in steroid-refractory acute GVHD triggered a $20.0 million milestone payment to Lilly.

Agenus

Table of Contents

to as Agenus. Under this agreement, the parties have agreed to collaborate on the discovery of novel immuno-therapeutics using Agenus’ antibody discovery platforms. The agreement became effective on February 18, 2015, upon the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. Upon closing of the agreement, we paid Agenus total consideration of $60.0 million.

In February 2017, we and Agenus amended this agreement (the “Amended Agreement”). Under the terms of the Amended Agreement, we received exclusive worldwide development and commercialization rights to four checkpoint modulators directed against GITR, OX40, LAG-3 and TIM-3. In addition to the initial four program targets, we and Agenus have the option to jointly nominate and pursue additional targets within the framework of the collaboration, and in November 2015, three more targets were added. Targets may be designated profit-share programs, where all costs and profits are shared equally by us and Agenus, or royalty-bearing programs, where we are responsible for all costs associated with discovery, preclinical, clinical development and commercialization activities. The programs relating to GITR and OX40 and two of the undisclosed targets were profit-share programs until February 2017, while the other targets currently under collaboration are royalty-bearing programs. The Amended Agreement converted the programs relating to GITR and OX40 to royalty-bearing programs and removed from the collaboration the profit-share programs relating to the two undisclosed targets, with one reverting to us and one reverting to Agenus. Should any of those removed programs be successfully developed by a party, the other party will be eligible to receive the same milestone payments as the royalty-bearing programs and royalties at a 15% rate on global net sales. There are currently no profit-share programs. For each royalty-bearing product other than GITR and OX40, Agenus will be eligible to receive tiered royalties on global net sales ranging from 6% to 12%. For GITR and OX40, Agenus will be eligible to receive 15% royalties on global net sales.

In 2017 under the Amended Agreement, we paid Agenus $20.0 million in accelerated milestones relating to the clinical development of the GITR and OX40 programs, which was recorded in research and development expense. Agenus was initially eligible to receive up to an additional $510.0 million in future contingent development, regulatory and commercialization milestones across all programs in the collaboration. The agreement may be terminated by us for convenience upon 12 months’ notice and may also be terminated under certain other circumstances, including material breach. In 2018, we paid Agenus a $5.0 million development milestone for the LAG-3 program and a $5.0 million development milestone for the TIM-3 program, which were recorded in research and development expense.

In connection with the Amended Agreement, we also agreed to purchase 10.0 million shares of Agenus Inc. common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $60.0 million in cash, or $6.00 per share. We completed the purchase of the shares on February 14, 2017, when the closing price on The Nasdaq Stock Market for Agenus Inc. shares was $4.40 per share. The shares we acquired were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 on the purchase date and were subject to certain security specific restrictions for a period of time, and accordingly, we estimated a discount for lack of marketability on the shares on the issuance date of $4.5 million, which resulted in a net fair value of the shares on the issuance date of $39.5 million. Therefore, of the total consideration paid of $60.0 million, $39.5 million was allocated to our stock purchase in Agenus Inc. and was recorded within long term investments and $20.5 million was allocated to research and development expense.

We have concluded Agenus Inc. is not a VIE because it has sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and its at-risk equity holders have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As of March 31, 2020, we owned approximately 11% of the outstanding shares of Agenus Inc. common stock. We concluded that we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over Agenus Inc. based primarily on our ownership interest, the fact that we have been the largest Agenus stockholder since the date of our initial stock purchase, the level of intra-entity transactions between us and Agenus related to development expenses, as well as other qualitative factors. We have elected the fair value option to account for our long term investment in Agenus Inc. whereby the investment is marked to market through earnings in each reporting period. We believe the fair value option to be the most appropriate accounting method to account for securities in publicly held collaborators for which we have significant influence. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded an unrealized loss of $28.8 million and an unrealized gain of $10.5 million, respectively, based on the change in fair value of Agenus Inc.’s common stock during these periods. The fair market value of our long term investment in Agenus Inc. at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $43.5 million and $72.3 million, respectively.

Table of Contents

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, Agenus reported within its Form 10-K total revenues of approximately $150.0 million and net loss of approximately $111.6 million within their consolidated financial statements.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 also included $0.1 million and $10.2 million, respectively, of development costs incurred pursuant to the Agenus arrangement. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, a total of $1.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of such costs were included in accrued and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Merus

In December 2016, we entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement with Merus N.V. (“Merus”). Under this agreement, which became effective in January 2017, the parties have agreed to collaborate with respect to the research, discovery and development of bispecific antibodies utilizing Merus’ technology platform. The collaboration encompasses up to eleven independent programs.

The most advanced collaboration program is MCLA-145, a bispecific antibody targeting PD-L1 and CD137, for which we received exclusive development and commercialization rights outside of the United States. Merus retained exclusive development and commercialization rights in the United States to MCLA-145. Each party will share equally the costs of mutually agreed global development activities for MCLA-145, and fund itself any independent development activities in its territory. Merus will be responsible for commercializing MCLA-145 in the United States and we will be responsible for commercializing it outside of the United States.

In addition to receiving rights to MCLA-145 outside of the United States, we received worldwide exclusive development and commercialization rights to up to ten additional programs. Of these ten additional programs, Merus retained the option, subject to certain conditions, to co-fund development of up to two such programs. If Merus exercises its co-funding option for a program, Merus would be responsible for funding 35% of the associated future global development costs and, for certain of such programs, would be responsible for reimbursing us for certain development costs incurred prior to the option exercise. Merus will also have the right to participate in a specified proportion of detailing activities in the United States for one of those co-developed programs. All costs related to the co-funded collaboration programs are subject to joint research and development plans and overseen by a joint development committee, but we will have final determination as to such plans in cases of dispute. We will be responsible for all research, development and commercialization costs relating to all other programs.

In February 2017, we paid Merus an upfront non-refundable payment of $120.0 million. For each program as to which Merus does not have commercialization or development co-funding rights, Merus will be eligible to receive up to $100.0 million in future contingent development and regulatory milestones, and up to $250.0 million in commercialization milestones as well as tiered royalties ranging from 6% to 10% of global net sales. For each program as to which Merus exercises its option to co-fund development, Merus will be eligible to receive a 50% share of profits (or sustain 50% of any losses) in the United States and be eligible to receive tiered royalties ranging from 6% to 10% of net sales of products outside of the United States. If Merus opts to cease co-funding a program as to which it exercised its co-development option, then Merus will no longer receive a share of profits in the United States but will be eligible to receive the same milestones from the co-funding termination date and the same tiered royalties described above with respect to programs where Merus does not have a right to co-fund development and, depending on the stage at which Merus chose to cease co-funding development costs, Merus will be eligible to receive additional royalties ranging up to 4% of net sales in the United States. For MCLA-145, we and Merus will each be eligible to receive tiered royalties on net sales in the other party’s territory at rates ranging from 6% to 10%.

The Merus agreement will continue on a program-by-program basis until we have no royalty payment obligations with respect to such program or, if earlier, the termination of the agreement or any program in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The agreement may be terminated in its entirety or on a program-by-program basis by us for convenience. The agreement may also be terminated by either party under certain other circumstances, including material breach, as set forth in the agreement. If the agreement is terminated with respect to one or more programs, all rights in the terminated programs revert to Merus, subject to payment to us of a reverse royalty of up to 4% on sales of future products, if Merus elects to pursue development and commercialization of products arising from the terminated programs.

In addition, in December 2016, we entered into a Share Subscription Agreement with Merus, pursuant to which we agreed to purchase 3.2 million common shares of Merus for an aggregate purchase price of $80.0 million in cash, or $25.00 per share. We completed the purchase of the shares on January 23, 2017 when the closing price on The Nasdaq Stock Market for Merus shares was $24.50 per share. The shares we acquired were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 on the purchase date and were subject to certain security specific restrictions for a period of time, and accordingly, we estimated a discount for lack of marketability on the shares on the issuance date of $5.6 million, which resulted in a net fair value of the shares on the issuance date of $72.8 million. Of the total consideration paid of $80.0 million, $72.8 million was allocated to our stock purchase in Merus and was recorded as a long term investment and $7.2 million was allocated to research and development expense. The fair market value of our total long term investment in Merus at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $38.7 million and $45.1 million, respectively.

We have concluded Merus is not a VIE because it has sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and its at-risk equity holders have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As of March 31, 2020, we owned approximately 11% of the outstanding common shares of Merus and conclude that we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over Merus based primarily on our ownership interest, the level of intra-entity transactions between us and Merus related to development expenses, as well as other qualitative factors. We have elected the fair value option to account for our long term investment in Merus whereby the investment is marked to market through earnings in each reporting period. We believe the fair value option to be the most appropriate accounting method to account for securities in publicly held collaborators for which we have significant influence. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 we recorded an unrealized loss of $6.3 million and an unrealized gain of $2.5 million, respectively, based on the change in fair value of Merus’ common shares during these periods.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, Merus reported within its Form 10-K total revenues of approximately $31.1 million and net loss of approximately $55.2 million within their consolidated financial statements.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 included $2.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively, of additional development costs incurred pursuant to the Merus agreement. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, a total of $2.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of such costs were included in accrued and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Calithera

In January 2017, we entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement with Calithera Biosciences, Inc. (“Calithera”). Under this agreement, we received an exclusive, worldwide license to develop and commercialize small molecule arginase inhibitors, including CB-1158, which is currently in Phase I clinical trials, for hematology and oncology indications. We have agreed to co-fund 70% of the global development costs for the development of the licensed products for hematology and oncology indications. Calithera will have the right to conduct certain clinical development under the collaboration, including combination studies of a licensed product with a proprietary compound of Calithera. We will be entitled to 60% of the profits and losses from net sales of licensed product in the United States, and Calithera will have the right to co-detail licensed products in the United States, and we have agreed to pay Calithera tiered royalties ranging from the low to mid-double digits on net sales of licensed products outside the United States. Calithera may opt out of its co-funding obligation, in which case the U.S. profit sharing will no longer be in effect, and we have agreed to pay Calithera tiered royalties ranging from the low to mid-double digits on net sales of licensed products both in the United States and outside the United States, and additional royalties to reimburse Calithera for previously incurred development costs.

In January 2017, we paid Calithera an upfront license fee of $45.0 million and have agreed to pay potential development, regulatory and sales milestone payments of over $430.0 million if the profit share is in effect, or $750.0 million if the profit share terminates. In 2017, we paid Calithera a $12.0 million milestone for the achievement of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics goals for CB-1158 which was recorded in research and development expense.

convenience. The agreement may also be terminated by us for Calithera’s uncured material breach, by Calithera for our uncured material breach and by either party for bankruptcy or patent challenge. If the agreement is terminated early with respect to one or more products or countries, all rights in the terminated products and countries revert to Calithera.

In addition, in January 2017, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Calithera for the purchase of 1.7 million common shares of Calithera for an aggregate purchase price of $8.0 million in cash, or $4.65 per share. We completed the purchase of the shares on January 30, 2017 when the closing price on The Nasdaq Stock Market was $6.75 per share. The shares we acquired were registered under the Securities Act of 1933 on the purchase date and there were no security specific restrictions for these shares, and therefore the value of the 1.7 million shares acquired by us was $11.6 million. We paid total consideration of $53.0 million to Calithera, composed of the $45.0 million upfront license fee and the $8.0 million stock purchase price. Of the $53.0 million, $11.6 million was allocated to our stock purchase in Calithera and was recorded within long term investments and $41.4 million was allocated to research and development expense. The fair market value of our long term investment in Calithera at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $7.6 million and $9.8 million, respectively.

We have concluded Calithera is not a VIE because it has sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and its at-risk equity holders have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As of March 31, 2020, we owned approximately 3% of the outstanding shares of Calithera common stock and there are several other stockholders who hold larger positions of Calithera. As we do not hold a significant position of the voting shares of Calithera and lack the qualitative characteristics associated with the ability to exercise significant influence, our ownership interest does not meet the criteria to be accounted for as an equity method investment. We intend to hold the investment in Calithera for the foreseeable future and therefore, are accounting for our shares held in Calithera at fair value, and the investment is marked to market through earnings in each reporting period. Given our intent to hold the investment for the foreseeable future, we have classified the investment within long term investments on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 we recorded an unrealized loss of $2.2 million and an unrealized gain of $4.7 million, respectively, based on the change in fair value of Calithera’s common stock during these periods.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 also included $2.5 million and $4.6 million, respectively, of additional development costs incurred pursuant to the Calithera agreement. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, a total of $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of such costs were included in accrued and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

MacroGenics

In October 2017, we entered into a Global Collaboration and License Agreement with MacroGenics, Inc. (“MacroGenics”). Under this agreement, we received exclusive development and commercialization rights worldwide to MacroGenics’ INCMGA0012 (formerly MGA012), an investigational monoclonal antibody that inhibits PD-1. Except as set forth in the succeeding sentence, we will have sole authority over and bear all costs and expenses in connection with the development and commercialization of INCMGA0012 in all indications, whether as a monotherapy or as part of a combination regimen. MacroGenics has retained the right to develop and commercialize, at its cost and expense, its pipeline assets in combination with INCMGA0012. In addition, MacroGenics has the right to manufacture a portion of both companies’ global clinical and commercial supply needs of INCMGA0012. In 2017, we paid MacroGenics an upfront payment of $150.0 million, which was recorded in research and development expense. MacroGenics was initially eligible to receive up to $420.0 million in future contingent development and regulatory milestones and up to $30.0 million in sales milestones as well as tiered royalties ranging from 15% to 24% of global net sales. In 2018, we paid MacroGenics a $10.0 million and a $5.0 million milestone for the achievement of certain clinical milestones as part of our collaboration and license agreement, which were recorded in research and development expense.

The MacroGenics agreement will continue until we are no longer commercializing, developing or manufacturing INCMGA0012 or, if earlier, the termination of the agreement in accordance with its terms. The agreement may be terminated in its entirety or on a licensed product by licensed product basis by us for convenience. The agreement may also be terminated by either party under certain other circumstances, including material breach, as set forth in the agreement.

Table of Contents

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 also included $16.4 million and $9.4 million, respectively, of additional development costs incurred pursuant to the MacroGenics agreement. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, a total of $1.6 million and $1.0 million of such costs were included in accrued and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Syros

In January 2018, we entered into a target discovery, research collaboration and option agreement with Syros Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Syros”). Under this agreement, Syros will use its proprietary gene control platform to identify novel therapeutic targets with a focus in myeloproliferative neoplasms and we have received options to obtain exclusive worldwide rights to intellectual property resulting from the collaboration for up to seven validated targets. We will have exclusive worldwide rights to develop and commercialize any therapies under the collaboration that modulate those validated targets. We have agreed to pay Syros up to $54.0 million in target selection and option exercise fees should we decide to exercise all of our options under the agreement. For products resulting from the collaboration against each of the seven selected and validated targets, we have agreed to pay up to $50.0 million in potential development and regulatory milestones and up to $65.0 million in potential sales milestones. Syros is also eligible to receive low single-digit royalties on net sales of products resulting from the collaboration. In January 2018, we paid Syros an upfront non-refundable (except in the event of a material breach of the agreement by Syros) payment of $10.0 million, which was recorded in research and development expense.

In addition, in January 2018, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Syros for the purchase of 0.8 million common shares of Syros for an aggregate purchase price of $10.0 million in cash, or $12.61 per share. We agreed to not sell or otherwise transfer any of our Syros shares for a period, referred to as the Lock-Up Period, of 12 months after the closing date of the sale. We completed the purchase of the shares on January 8, 2018 when the closing price on The Nasdaq Stock Market was $9.77 per share. The shares we acquired were not registered on the purchase date, and accordingly, we estimated a discount for lack of marketability on the shares of $0.1 million, which resulted in a net fair value of the shares on the issuance date of $7.6 million. Of the $10.0 million aggregate purchase price paid, $7.6 million was allocated to our stock purchase in Syros and was recorded within long term investments and $2.4 million, representing premium paid on the purchase, was allocated to research and development expense. Also in January 2018, we entered into an Amended Stock Purchase Agreement with Syros for the purchase of an additional 0.1 million common shares of Syros for an aggregate purchase price of $1.4 million in cash, or $9.55 per share. The shares were acquired in February 2018 and the $1.4 million aggregate purchase price was recorded within long term investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. All acquired shares were subsequently registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in February 2018. The fair market value of our long term investment in Syros as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $5.6 million and $6.5 million, respectively.

We have concluded Syros is not a VIE because it has sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and its at-risk equity holders have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As of March 31, 2020, we owned approximately 2% of the outstanding shares of Syros common stock and there are several other stockholders who hold larger positions of Syros. As we do not hold a significant position of the voting shares of Syros and lack the qualitative characteristics associated with the ability to exercise significant influence, our ownership interest does not meet the criteria to be accounted for as an equity method investment. We intend to hold the investment in Syros for the foreseeable future and therefore, are accounting for our shares held in Syros at fair value, and the investment is marked to market through earnings in each reporting period. Given our intent to hold the investment for the foreseeable future, we have classified the investment within long term investments on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded an unrealized loss of $0.9 million and an unrealized gain of $3.3 million, respectively, based on the change in fair market value of Syros’ common stock during these periods.

Innovent

In December 2018, we entered into a research collaboration and licensing agreement with Innovent. Under the terms of this agreement, Innovent received exclusive development and commercialization rights to our clinical-stage product candidates pemigatinib, itacitinib and parsaclisib in hematology and oncology in mainland China, Hong Kong,

Table of Contents

Macau and Taiwan. In January 2019, we recognized an upfront payment under this agreement of $40.0 million upon our transfer of the functional intellectual property related to the clinical-stage product candidates to Innovent, which was recorded in milestone and contract revenues on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The upfront milestone was recognized as revenue at a point in time upon our transfer of the licenses to Innovent for the right to use the functional intellectual property. In June 2019, we recognized the $20.0 million milestone for the first related IND filing in China, which was recorded in milestone and contract revenues. In addition, we are eligible to receive up to an additional $129.0 million in potential development and regulatory milestones. We recognize development and regulatory milestones upon confirmation of achievement of the event, as development and regulatory approvals are events not controllable by us but rather development activities of Innovent and decisions made by regulatory agencies.

In the event of commercialization of the licensed molecule, we are eligible to receive up to $202.5 million in potential sales milestones from Innovent. We will recognize sales milestones in the corresponding period of the product sale upon confirmation of net sales milestone threshold achievement by Innovent. We are also eligible to receive tiered royalties from the high-teens to the low-twenties on future sales of products resulting from the collaboration. We retain an option to assist in the promotion of the three product candidates in the Innovent territories.

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $3.8 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of reimbursable costs were included in accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Zai Lab

In July 2019, we entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Zai Lab. Under the terms of this agreement, Zai Lab received development and exclusive commercialization rights to INCMGA0012 in hematology and oncology in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. In August 2019, we recognized an upfront payment under this agreement of $17.5 million upon our transfer of the functional intellectual property related to the licensed product candidate to Zai Lab, which was recorded in milestone and contract revenues. The upfront milestone was recognized as revenue at a point in time upon our transfer of the license to Zai Lab for the right to use the functional intellectual property.

The agreement allows for Zai Lab to continue development of the licensed molecule and to submit the licensed molecule to authorities for regulatory approval within the agreement territory, upon which we are eligible for up to $22.5 million in potential development and regulatory milestones. We recognize development and regulatory milestones upon confirmation of achievement of the event, as development and regulatory approvals are events not controllable by us but rather development activities of Zai Lab and decisions made by regulatory agencies.

In the event of commercialization of the licensed molecule, we are eligible to receive up to $37.5 million in potential sales milestones from Zai Lab. We will recognize sales milestones in the corresponding period of the product sale upon confirmation of net sales milestone threshold achievement by Zai Lab. We are also eligible to receive tiered royalties from the low to mid-twenties on future product sales resulting from the collaboration. We also retain an option to assist in the promotion of INCMGA0012 in Zai Lab’s licensed territories.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were net of $0.2 million of costs reimbursed by Zai Lab. At March 31, 2020, $0.2 million of reimbursable costs were included in accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

MorphoSys

In January 2020, we entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement with MorphoSys AG and MorphoSys US Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MorphoSys AG (together with MorphoSys AG, “MorphoSys”), covering the worldwide development and commercialization of MOR208 (tafasitamab), an investigational Fc engineered monoclonal antibody directed against the target molecule CD19 that is currently in clinical development by MorphoSys. MorphoSys has exclusive worldwide development and commercialization rights to tafasitamab under a June 2010 collaboration and license agreement with Xencor, Inc. In December 2019, MorphoSys submitted a Biologics License Application to the FDA for tafasitamab for the treatment of relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma. The agreement became effective

Table of Contents

in March 2020 after clearance by the German and Austrian antitrust authorities and expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.

Under the terms of the agreement, we received exclusive commercialization rights outside of the United States, and MorphoSys and we have co-commercialization rights in the United States, with respect to tafasitamab. MorphoSys is responsible for leading the commercialization strategy and booking all revenue from sales of tafasitamab in the United States, and we and MorphoSys are both responsible for commercialization efforts in the United States and will share equally the profits and losses from the co-commercialization efforts. We will lead the commercialization strategy outside of the United States, and will be responsible for commercialization efforts and book all revenue from sales of tafasitamab outside of the United States, subject to our royalty payment obligations set forth below. We and MorphoSys have agreed to co-develop tafasitamab and to share development costs associated with global and U.S.-specific clinical trials, with Incyte responsible for 55% of such costs and MorphoSys responsible for 45% of such costs. Each company is responsible for funding any independent development activities, and we are responsible for funding development activities specific to territories outside of the United States. All development costs related to the collaboration are subject to a joint development plan.

In March 2020, we paid MorphoSys an upfront non-refundable payment of $750.0 million which was recorded in research and development expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020. MorphoSys is eligible to receive up to $740.0 million in future contingent development and regulatory milestones and up to $315.0 million in commercialization milestones as well as tiered royalties ranging from the mid-teens to mid-twenties of net sales outside of the United States. MorphoSys’ right to receive royalties in any particular country will expire upon the last to occur of (a) the expiration of patent rights in that particular country, (b) a specified period of time after the first post-marketing authorization sale of a licensed product comprising tafasitamab in that country, and (c) the expiration of any regulatory exclusivity for that licensed product in that country.

In addition, under the collaboration agreement and pursuant to a related purchase agreement, we agreed to purchase American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each representing 0.25 of an ordinary share of MorphoSys AG, for an aggregate purchase price of $150.0 million or $41.33 per ADS (such ADSs to be purchased, the “New ADSs”). We agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to sell or otherwise transfer any of the New ADSs for an 18-month period after the closing date of the sale. We completed the purchase of the ADSs on March 3, 2020 when the closing price on The Nasdaq Stock Market was $27.65 per ADS. The New ADSs were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 on the purchase date, and accordingly, we estimated a discount for lack of marketability on the shares of $4.9 million, which resulted in a net fair value of the shares on the issuance date of $95.5 million. Of the $150.0 million aggregate purchase price paid, $95.5 million was allocated to our stock purchase in MorphoSys and was recorded within long term investments and $54.5 million, representing the premium paid on the purchase, was allocated to research and development expense. The fair market value of our long term investment in MorphoSys as of March 31, 2020 was $85.6 million.

We have concluded MorphoSys is not a VIE because it has sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and its at-risk equity holders have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As of March 31, 2020, we owned approximately 3% of the outstanding shares of MorphoSys common stock and there are several other stockholders who hold larger positions of MorphoSys. As we do not hold a significant position of the voting shares of MorphoSys and lack the qualitative characteristics associated with the ability to exercise significant influence, our ownership interest does not meet the criteria to be accounted for as an equity method investment. We intend to hold the investment in MorphoSys for the foreseeable future and therefore, are accounting for our shares held in MorphoSys at fair value, and the investment is marked to market through earnings in each reporting period. Given our intent to hold the investment for the foreseeable future, we have classified the investment within long term investments on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded an unrealized loss of $9.9 million based on the change in fair market value of MorphoSys’ common stock during these periods.

Our 50% share of the United States loss for the commercialization of tafasitamab was $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and is recorded as collaboration loss sharing on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020, includes $11.6 million related to our 55% share of the co-development costs for tafasitamab. At March 31, 2020, $13.1 million was included in accrued and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet for amounts due to MorphoSys under the agreement.

10. Stock compensation

We recorded $42.5 million and $40.6 million, respectively, of stock compensation expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Stock compensation expense included within our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 included research and development expense of $28.7 million and $27.4 million, respectively. Stock compensation expense included within our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 also included selling, general and administrative expense of $13.6 million and $13.0 million, respectively. Stock compensation expense included within our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 also included cost of product revenues of $0.2 million for each period. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we capitalized $0.2 million and $0.1 million of stock compensation expense as part of the cost of an asset.

We utilized the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of the stock compensation granted, with the following weighted-average assumptions:


	Employee Stock Options				Employee Stock Purchase Plan
	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Average risk-free interest rates	1.56	%	2.51	%	0.23	%	2.27	%
Average expected life (in years)	4.65		5.33		0.25		0.25
Volatility	40	%	45	%	52	%	34	%
Weighted-average fair value (in dollars)	28.43		31.50		16.00		13.31

The risk-free interest rate is derived from the U.S. Federal Reserve rate in effect at the time of grant. The expected life calculation is based on the observed and expected time to the exercise of options by our employees based on historical exercise patterns for similar type options. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the period commensurate with the expected life of the options. A dividend yield of zero is assumed based on the fact that we have never paid cash dividends and have no present intention to pay cash dividends. Nonemployee awards are measured on the grant date by estimating the fair value of the equity instruments to be issued using the expected term, similar to our employee awards.

Option activity under our 2010 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the “2010 Stock Plan”) was as follows:


	Shares Subject to
	Outstanding Options
		Weighted Average
	Shares	Exercise Price
Balance at December 31, 2019	12,632,657	$	81.42
Options granted	914,834	$	80.12
Options exercised	(688,202)	$	26.83
Options cancelled	(180,342)	$	91.57
Balance at March 31, 2020	12,678,947	$	84.14

In July 2016, we revised the terms of our annual stock option grants to provide that new option grants would generally have a 10-year term and vest over four years, with 25% vesting after one year and the remainder vesting in 36 equal monthly installments. Previously, our option grants generally had 7-year terms and vested over three years, with 33% vesting after one year and the remainder vesting in 24 equal monthly installments.

Restricted stock unit (“RSU”) and performance share (“PSU”) award activity under the 2010 Stock Plan was as follows:


	Shares Subject to
	Outstanding Awards
	Shares	Grant Date Value
Balance at December 31, 2019	2,602,376	$	79.69

PSUs cancelled	(12,250)	$	65.76
Balance at March 31, 2020	2,865,401	$	79.65

In January 2014, we began granting RSUs and PSUs to our employees at the share price on the date of grant. Each RSU represents the right to acquire one share of our common stock. Each RSU granted prior to July 2016 was subject to cliff vesting after three years. In July 2016, we revised the terms of our RSU grants to provide that the awards will vest 25% annually over four years.

In June 2018, we granted 190,000 RSUs and 446,500 PSUs under long term incentive plans with performance and/or service-based milestones with graded and/or cliff vesting over three to four years. In April 2019, we granted an additional 100,000 PSUs under one of the existing long term incentive plans with performance based milestones and cliff vesting. For one of the existing long term incentive plans, under which 106,500 PSUs were granted, the actual number of shares of our common stock into which each PSU may convert was subject to a multiplier of up to 267% based on the level at which the performance conditions were achieved. The actual number of shares of our common stock into which each PSU will convert is at a multiplier of 142% based on the performance conditions being achieved as of March 31, 2019 and will continue to vest through June 2022. For an existing long term incentive plan, under which 150,000 PSUs were granted, the actual number of shares of our common stock into which each PSU may convert was subject to a multiplier of up to 100% if all performance conditions were achieved or 0% if no performance conditions were achieved. The actual number of shares of our common stock into which each PSU will convert is at a multiplier of 100% based on the performance conditions being achieved as of December 31, 2019 and will cliff vest in June 2021.

Compensation expense for the performance-based awards is recorded over the estimated service period for each milestone when the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement. For the period ended March 31, 2020, the stock compensation expense recorded during the period was for service-based awards and performance conditions deemed probable of achievement and/or achieved. For PSUs containing performance conditions which were not deemed probable of achievement at March 31, 2020, no stock compensation expense was recognized.

In July 2018, we granted 77,243 PSUs to executives with performance milestones and graded vesting over four years. The shares of our common stock into which each PSU may convert is subject to a multiplier up to 150% based on the level at which the performance condition is achieved. Compensation expense for the performance-based awards is recorded over the estimated service period when the performance condition is deemed probable of achievement. The actual number of shares of our common stock into which each PSU converted was at a multiplier of 83% based on the performance condition being achieved as of December 31, 2018. These PSUs will continue to vest through July 2022.

In July 2019, we granted 86,975 PSUs to executives with a performance milestone and graded vesting over four years. The shares of our common stock into which each PSU may convert is subject to a multiplier up to 125% based on the level at which the performance condition is achieved. Compensation expense for the performance-based awards is recorded over the estimated service period when the performance condition is deemed probable of achievement. The actual number of shares of our common stock into which each PSU will convert is at a multiplier of 101.8% based on the performance condition being achieved as of December 31, 2019. These PSUs will continue to vest through July 2023.

The following table summarizes our shares available for grant under the 2010 Stock Plan:


		Shares Available
		for Grant
Balance at December 31, 2019		9,882,122
Options, RSUs and PSUs granted		(1,673,826)
Options, RSUs and PSUs cancelled		247,429
Balance at March 31, 2020		8,455,725

Based on our historical experience of employee turnover, we have assumed an annualized forfeiture rate of 5% for our options, RSUs and PSUs. Under the true-up provisions of the stock compensation guidance, we will record additional expense if the actual forfeiture rate is lower than we estimated, and will record a recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeiture is higher than we estimated.

Total compensation cost of options granted but not yet vested, as of March 31, 2020, was $95.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of approximately 1.4 years. Total compensation cost of RSUs granted but not yet vested, as of March 31, 2020, was $93.3 million, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years. Total compensation cost of PSUs granted but not yet vested, as of March 31, 2020, was $29.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 1.8 years, should the underlying performance conditions be deemed probable of achievement.

Prior to May 14, 2014, the 2020 Notes were not convertible except in connection with a make-whole fundamental change, as defined in the indenture. Beginning on, and including, May 15, 2014, the 2020 Notes are convertible prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding May 15, 2020 only under the following circumstances: (i) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2014 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for the 2020 Notes on each applicable trading day; (ii) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the 2020 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate for the 2020 Notes on each such trading day; or (iii) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after May 15, 2020 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the relevant maturity date, the 2020 Notes are convertible at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at our election.

On April 1, 2020, the 2020 Notes became convertible through at least June 30, 2020, based on meeting the conversion criteria related to the sale price of our common stock during the calendar quarter ended March 31, 2020 as described in (i) above. The 2020 Notes are reflected in current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 due to their maturity date of November 15, 2020, unless earlier purchased or converted.

13. Employee benefit plans

Defined Contribution Plans

We have a defined contribution plan qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code covering all U.S. employees and defined contribution plans for other Incyte employees in Europe and Japan. Employees may contribute a portion of their compensation, which is then matched by us, subject to certain limitations. Defined contribution expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $3.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

We have defined benefit pension plans for our employees in Europe which provide benefits to employees upon retirement, death or disability. The assets of the pension plans are held in collective investment accounts represented by the cash surrender value of an insurance policy and are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The net periodic benefit cost was as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2020		2019
Service cost	$	1,457	$	1,263
Interest cost		46		84
Expected return on plan assets		(30)		(60)
Amortization of prior service cost		54		45
Amortization of actuarial losses		167		66
Net periodic benefit cost	$	1,694	$	1,398

Table of Contents

The components of net periodic benefit cost other than the service cost component are included in other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We expect to contribute a total of $4.0 million to the pension plans in 2020 inclusive of the amounts contributed to the plan during the current period. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $24.6 million and $24.1 million, respectively, of accrued pension obligation is recorded in other long term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

14. Income taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded income tax expense of approximately $16.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The change in tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily driven by increased federal and state tax liabilities that are not fully sheltered by net operating losses or research and development tax credit carryforwards. The increase was also driven by reduced tax benefits for stock-based compensation in the current period.

As of March 31, 2020, a full valuation allowance continues to be recorded against our U.S. and Swiss net deferred tax assets. Based upon our analysis of our historical operating results, as well as projections of our future taxable income (losses) during the periods in which the temporary differences will be recoverable, we believe the uncertainty regarding the realization of our U.S. and Swiss net deferred tax assets requires a full valuation allowance against such net assets as of March 31, 2020. When performing our assessment on projections of future taxable income (losses), we consider factors such as the likelihood of regulatory approval and commercial success of products currently under development, among other factors.

The balance of our unrecognized tax benefits (including penalties and interest) increased by approximately $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The overall net increase is primarily driven by unrecognized tax benefits related to current year operations and research and development tax credits offset by audit settlements in Wisconsin and Italy. After considering valuation allowance impacts, the change in unrecognized tax benefits resulted in a $0.2 million decrease to noncurrent other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

16. Contingencies

In December 2018, we received a civil investigative demand from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) for documents and information relating to our speaker programs and patient assistance programs, including our support of non-profit organizations that provide financial assistance to eligible patients. We have cooperated with this inquiry. In November 2019, the qui tam complaint underlying the DOJ inquiry was unsealed (“Complaint”), at which time we learned that a former employee whom we had terminated had made certain allegations relating to the programs described above. We then became aware that the DOJ had not intervened in the qui tam action, and, to our knowledge, the DOJ has not intervened to date. We filed an answer to the Complaint on January 22, 2020, and the action is proceeding. We cannot predict the outcome or the timing of the ultimate resolution of the investigation or qui tam action, or reasonably estimate the possible range of loss, if any, that may result from these matters. Accordingly, no reserve has been made with respect to these matters as of March 31, 2020.

17. Subsequent event

In April 2020, the FDA approved PEMAZYRE (pemigatinib), a selective fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor, for the treatment of adults with previously treated, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an FGFR2 fusion or other rearrangement as detected by an FDA-approved test. PEMAZYRE is the first and only FDA-approved treatment for this indication, which was approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate and duration of response. We have retained all rights to PEMAZYRE globally, other than those granted to Innovent Biologics, Inc. to develop and commercialize pemigatinib in hematology and oncology in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

COVID-19

Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business

In December 2019, coronavirus disease of 2019, or COVID-19, was first reported in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic (“the COVID-19 Pandemic”) and certain governments, including the State of Delaware where our primary offices and laboratory spaces are located, enacted stay-at-home orders and sweeping restrictions to travel and business activity were initiated by corporations and governments.

We took aggressive, proactive actions early on to protect the health of our employees, and their families, including limiting the number of people permitted to be present in any particular meeting, curtailing most travel, encouraging videoconferencing whenever possible, establishing hand sanitizer stations throughout our locations, and posting signage instructing employees on the importance, and proper method, of handwashing. In addition, as the COVID-19 Pandemic worsened throughout March 2020, we voluntarily required almost all personnel across our global enterprise to work remotely and we restricted access to our sites to personnel who are required to perform critical business continuity activities. Since our voluntary shift to remote work, the State of Delaware, neighboring states, as well as many of the other countries in which we operate, have enacted stay-at-home orders or similar measures. In addition, the Trump Administration in the U.S. has recommended extensive social distancing measures be taken throughout the U.S.

While we currently believe we are well-positioned to function in this virtual or remote fashion, the extent of the COVID-19 Pandemic’s effect on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration, spread and intensity of the pandemic, additional protective measures implemented by governmental authorities or by us to protect our employees, and effects of the pandemic and such protective measures on our suppliers, collaborators, services providers and healthcare organizations serving patients, all of which are uncertain and difficult to

Table of Contents

predict considering the rapidly evolving landscape. As a result, it is not currently possible to ascertain or predict the overall long-term impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our business. To date, we have not seen any material effect on our commercial operations, or our manufacturing supply chain, and we have increased manufacturing efforts of ruxolitinib to respond to the COVID-19 Pandemic and to pre-clinical and clinical study requests. We continue to anticipate that short-term effects may continue to emerge across different aspects of our global clinical trial programs. For example, while we expect ongoing monitoring of already-enrolled patients to continue, new patient recruitment in certain clinical studies may be impacted. We also expect the conduct of clinical trials may vary by disease state and by severity of disease, as well as by geography, as some regions are more adversely impacted. Our discovery laboratories have been staffed by essential personnel, and hence certain discovery programs may experience delays. Still, we caution that it remains relatively early in the COVID-19 Pandemic and we may not yet be able to assess its consequences accurately or fully at this time.

If the COVID-19 Pandemic continues to increase in severity or if overall or localized economic activity continues to contract for any appreciable length of time, we could experience a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

We intend to continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions altering our business operations that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, patients, partners, and stakeholders, or as required by federal, state, or local authorities. It is not clear what the potential effects any such alterations or modifications may have on our business, including the effects on our customers, employees, and future plans or prospects, or on our financial results for the remainder of fiscal 2020.

Clinical Trials to Address COVID-19

In April 2020, we announced the initiation of a Phase III clinical trial (RUXCOVID) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib plus standard-of-care (SoC), compared to SoC therapy alone, in patients with COVID-19 associated cytokine storm. The SoC therapy is currently evolving and could be subject to change. We will sponsor this collaborative study in the United States and our collaboration partner Novartis International Pharmaceutical Ltd. will sponsor the study outside of the United States.

We are also opening a second Phase III clinical trial in the United States to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib plus SoC, compared to SoC therapy alone, in COVID-19 patients on mechanical ventilation and who have acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a type of respiratory failure characterized by rapid onset of widespread inflammation in the lungs. The SoC therapy is currently evolving and could be subject to change.

We have launched an Expanded Access Program in the United States to allow eligible patients with COVID-19 associated cytokine storm to receive ruxolitinib.

In April 2020, our collaboration partner Eli Lilly and Company announced that it has entered into an agreement with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, to study baricitinib as an arm in NIAID's Adaptive COVID-19 Treatment Trial. The study will investigate the efficacy and safety of baricitinib as a potential treatment for hospitalized patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in the US, and Lilly is also planning an expansion to include Europe and Asia.

Marketed Indications - JAKAFI (ruxolitinib)

JAKAFI (ruxolitinib) is our first product to be approved for sale in the United States. It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in November 2011 for the treatment of adults with intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, in December 2014 for the treatment of adults with polycythemia vera who have had an inadequate response to or are intolerant of hydroxyurea and in May 2019 for the treatment of steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older. Myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera are both myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), a type of rare blood cancer, and GVHD is an adverse immune response to an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Under our collaboration agreement with Novartis, Novartis received exclusive development and commercialization rights to ruxolitinib outside of the United States for all hematologic and oncologic indications and sells ruxolitinib outside of the United States under the name JAKAVI.

Table of Contents

In 2003, we initiated a research and development program to explore the inhibition of enzymes called janus associated kinases (JAK). The JAK family is composed of four tyrosine kinases—JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 and Tyk2—that are involved in the signaling of a number of cytokines and growth factors. JAKs are central to a number of biologic processes, including the formation and development of blood cells and the regulation of immune functions. Dysregulation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway has been associated with a number of diseases, including myeloproliferative neoplasms, other hematological malignancies, rheumatoid arthritis and other chronic inflammatory diseases.

We have discovered multiple potent, selective and orally bioavailable JAK inhibitors that are selective for JAK1 or JAK1 and JAK2. JAKAFI is the most advanced compound in our JAK program. It is an oral JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitor.

JAKAFI is marketed in the United States through our own specialty sales force and commercial team. JAKAFI was the first FDA-approved JAK inhibitor for any indication and was the first FDA-approved product in all three of its current indications. JAKAFI remains the first-line standard of care in MF and remains the only FDA-approved product for PV and steroid-refractory acute GVHD. The FDA has granted JAKAFI orphan drug status for MF, PV, ET, acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and GVHD.

To help ensure that all eligible patients have access to JAKAFI, we have established a patient assistance program called IncyteCARES (CARES stands for Connecting to Access, Reimbursement, Education and Support). IncyteCARES helps ensure that any patient with intermediate or high-risk MF, uncontrolled PV or steroid-refractory acute GVHD who meets certain eligibility criteria and is prescribed JAKAFI has access to the product regardless of ability to pay and has access to ongoing support and educational resources during treatment.

JAKAFI is distributed primarily through a network of specialty pharmacy providers and wholesalers that allow for efficient delivery of the medication by mail directly to patients or direct delivery to the patient’s pharmacy. Our distribution process uses a model that is well-established and familiar to physicians who practice within the oncology field.

To further support appropriate use and future development of JAKAFI, our U.S. Medical Affairs department is responsible for providing appropriate scientific and medical education and information to physicians, preparing scientific presentations and publications, and overseeing the process for supporting investigator sponsored trials.

Myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis is a rare, life-threatening condition. MF, considered the most serious of the myeloproliferative neoplasms, can occur either as primary MF, or as secondary MF that develops in some patients who previously had polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia. We estimate there are between 16,000 and 18,500 patients with MF in the United States. Based on the modern prognostic scoring systems referred to as International Prognostic Scoring System and Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System, we believe intermediate and high-risk patients represent 80% to 90% of all patients with MF in the United States and encompass patients over the age of 65, or patients who have or have ever had any of the following: anemia, constitutional symptoms, elevated white blood cell or blast counts, or platelet counts less than 100,000 per microliter of blood.

Most MF patients have enlarged spleens and many suffer from debilitating symptoms, including abdominal discomfort, pruritus (itching), night sweats and cachexia (involuntary weight loss). There were no FDA approved therapies for MF until the approval of JAKAFI.

The FDA approval was based on results from two randomized Phase III trials (COMFORT-I and COMFORT-II), which demonstrated that patients treated with JAKAFI experienced significant reductions in splenomegaly (enlarged spleen). COMFORT-I also demonstrated improvements in symptoms. The most common hematologic adverse reactions in both trials were thrombocytopenia and anemia. These events rarely led to discontinuation of JAKAFI treatment. The most common non-hematologic adverse reactions were bruising, dizziness and headache.

In August 2014, the FDA approved supplemental labeling for JAKAFI to include Kaplan-Meier overall survival curves as well as additional safety and dosing information. The overall survival information is based on three-year data from COMFORT-I and II, and shows that at three years the probability of survival for patients treated with JAKAFI in COMFORT-I was 70% and for those patients originally randomized to placebo it was 61%. In COMFORT-II, at three years the probability of survival for patients treated with JAKAFI was 79% and for patients originally randomized to best

Table of Contents

available therapy it was 59%. In December 2016, we announced an exploratory pooled analysis of data from the five-year follow-up of the COMFORT-I and COMFORT-II trials of patients treated with JAKAFI, which further supported previously published overall survival findings.

In September 2016, we announced that JAKAFI had been included as a recommended treatment in the latest National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology for myelofibrosis, underscoring the important and long-term clinical benefits seen in patients treated with JAKAFI.

In October 2017, the FDA approved updated labeling for JAKAFI to include the addition of new patient-reported outcome (PRO) data from the COMFORT-I study, as well as updating the warning related to progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy. An exploratory analysis of PRO data of patients with myelofibrosis receiving JAKAFI showed improvement in fatigue-related symptoms at Week 24. Fatigue response (defined as a reduction of 4.5 points or more from baseline in the PROMIS^® Fatigue total score) was reported in 35% of patients treated with JAKAFI versus 14% of the patients treated with placebo.

Polycythemia Vera. PV is a myeloproliferative neoplasm typically characterized by elevated hematocrit, the volume percentage of red blood cells in whole blood, which can lead to a thickening of the blood and an increased risk of blood clots, as well as an elevated white blood cell and platelet count. When phlebotomy can no longer control PV, chemotherapy such as hydroxyurea, or interferon, is utilized. Approximately 25,000 patients with PV in the United States are considered uncontrolled because they have an inadequate response to or are intolerant of hydroxyurea, the most commonly used chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of PV.

In December 2014, the FDA approved JAKAFI for the treatment of patients with PV who have had an inadequate response to or are intolerant of hydroxyurea. The approval of JAKAFI for PV was based on data from the pivotal Phase III RESPONSE trial. In this trial, patients treated with JAKAFI demonstrated superior hematocrit control and reductions in spleen volume compared to best available therapy. In addition, a greater proportion of patients treated with JAKAFI achieved complete hematologic remission—which was defined as achieving hematocrit control, and lowering platelet and white blood cell counts. In the RESPONSE trial, the most common hematologic adverse reactions (incidence > 20%) were thrombocytopenia and anemia. The most common non-hematologic adverse events (incidence >10%) were headache, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness, fatigue, pruritus, dyspnea and muscle spasms.

In March 2016, the FDA approved supplemental labeling for JAKAFI to include additional safety data as well as efficacy analyses from the RESPONSE trial to assess the durability of response in JAKAFI treated patients after 80 weeks. At this time, 83% patients were still on treatment, and 76% of the responders at 32 weeks maintained their response through 80 weeks.

In June 2016, we announced data from the Phase III RESPONSE-2 study of JAKAFI in patients with inadequately controlled PV that was resistant to or intolerant of hydroxyurea who did not have an enlarged spleen. These data showed that JAKAFI was superior to best available therapy in maintaining hematocrit control (62.2% vs. 18.7%, respectively; P<0.0001) without the need for phlebotomy.

In August 2017, we announced that JAKAFI had been included as a recommended treatment in the latest NCCN Guidelines for patients with polycythemia vera who have had an inadequate response to first-line therapies, such as hydroxyurea.

Graft-versus-host disease. GVHD is a condition that can occur after an allogeneic HSCT (the transfer of genetically dissimilar stem cells or tissue). In GVHD, the donated bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells view the recipient’s body as foreign and attack various tissues. 12-month survival rates in patients with Grade III or IV steroid-refractory acute GVHD are 50% or less, and the incidence of steroid-refractory acute and chronic GVHD is approximately 3,000 per year in the United States.

In June 2016, we announced that the FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for ruxolitinib in patients with acute GVHD. In May 2019, the FDA approved JAKAFI for the treatment of steroid-refractory acute GVHD in adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older. The approval was based on data from REACH1, an open-label, single-arm,

Table of Contents

multicenter study of JAKAFI in combination with corticosteroids in patients with steroid-refractory grade II-IV acute GVHD. The overall response rate (ORR) in patients refractory to steroids alone was 57% with a complete response (CR) rate of 31%. The most frequently reported adverse reactions among all study participants were infections (55%) and edema (51%), and the most common laboratory abnormalities were anemia (75%), thrombocytopenia (75%) and neutropenia (58%).

We have retained all development and commercialization rights to JAKAFI in the United States and are eligible to receive development and sales milestones as well as royalties from product sales outside the United States. We hold patents that cover the composition of matter and use of ruxolitinib which patents, including applicable extensions, expire in late 2027.

Marketed Indications - ICLUSIG (ponatinib)

In June 2016, we acquired the European operations of ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ARIAD) and obtained an exclusive license to develop and commercialize ICLUSIG (ponatinib) in Europe and other select countries. ICLUSIG is a kinase inhibitor. The primary target for ICLUSIG is BCR-ABL, an abnormal tyrosine kinase that is expressed in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia-chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL).

In the European Union, ICLUSIG is approved for the treatment of adult patients with chronic phase, accelerated phase or blast phase CML who are resistant to dasatinib or nilotinib; who are intolerant to dasatinib or nilotinib and for whom subsequent treatment with imatinib is not clinically appropriate; or who have the T315I mutation, or the treatment of adult patients with Ph+ ALL who are resistant to dasatinib; who are intolerant to dasatinib and for whom subsequent treatment with imatinib is not clinically appropriate; or who have the T315I mutation.

Marketed Indications - PEMAZYRE (pemigatinib)

In April 2020, we announced that the FDA approved PEMAZYRE (pemigatinib), a selective fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor, for the treatment of adults with previously treated, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an FGFR2 fusion or other rearrangement as detected by an FDA-approved test. PEMAZYRE is the first and only FDA-approved treatment for this indication, which was approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate and duration of response (DOR).

Cholangiocarcinoma is a rare cancer that arises from the cells within the bile ducts. It is often diagnosed late (stages III and IV) and the prognosis is poor. The incidence of cholangiocarcinoma with FGFR2 fusions or rearrangements is increasing, and it is currently estimated that there are 2,000-3,000 patients in the U.S., Europe and Japan.

The approval of PEMAZYRE was based on data from FIGHT-202, a multi-center, open-label, single-arm study evaluating PEMAZYRE as a treatment for adults with cholangiocarcinoma. In FIGHT-202, and in patients harboring FGFR2 fusions or rearrangements (Cohort A), PEMAZYRE monotherapy resulted in an overall response rate of 36% (primary endpoint), and median DOR of 9.1 months (secondary endpoint). Warnings and precautions included in the PEMAZYRE prescribing information include potential for eye problems such as dry or inflamed eyes, inflamed cornea, increased tears and a disorder of the retina; high levels of phosphate in the blood; and, for women who are pregnant, a risk of harm to the unborn baby or loss of pregnancy. FIGHT-302, a Phase III trial of pemigatinib for the first-line treatment of patients with cholangiocarcinoma and FGFR2 fusions or rearrangements, is ongoing.

We have retained all rights to PEMAZYRE globally, other than those granted to Innovent Biologics, Inc. to develop and commercialize pemigatinib in hematology and oncology in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

Clinical Programs in Oncology

We believe that the future of cancer treatment lies in the use of targeted therapies, which aim to block the effects of cancer-causing mutations, and immune therapies, which seek to recruit the patient’s own immune system to tackle cancer. Our most advanced programs are detailed below.

Table of Contents

JAK Inhibition

As part of our ongoing LIMBER (Leadership in MPNs BEyond Ruxolitinib) clinical development initiative, which is designed to improve and expand therapeutic options for patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms, we are evaluating combinations of ruxolitinib with other therapeutic modalities, as well as developing a once-a-day formulation of ruxolitinib for potential use as monotherapy and combination therapy. Based on positive Phase II data, we are preparing a pivotal trial program of ruxolitinib in combination with parsaclisib (PI3Kδ). Additional Phase II trials combining ruxolitinib with investigational agents from our portfolio such as INCB53914 (PIM), INCB57643 (BET) and INCB00928 (ALK2) in patients with MF are either ongoing or in preparation.

As part of our development efforts to evaluate JAK inhibition in GVHD, the REACH clinical program is evaluating ruxolitinib in patients with steroid-refractory GVHD and includes REACH2, a Novartis-sponsored Phase III trial in steroid-refractory acute GVHD, and REACH3, a Phase III trial in steroid-refractory chronic GVHD that is co-sponsored by Incyte and Novartis.

In October 2019, we and Novartis announced that REACH2 met its primary endpoint of superior ORR at Day 28 with ruxolitinib treatment compared to best available therapy. No new safety signals were observed, and the ruxolitinib safety profile in REACH2 was consistent with that seen in previously reported studies in steroid-refractory acute GVHD. In April 2020, we and Novartis announced that data from REACH2 were published in The New England Journal of Medicine. The result of REACH3 is expected to be available in the second half of 2020.

A second JAK inhibitor in development is itacitinib, which is a selective JAK1 inhibitor. In January 2020, we announced that in the pivotal Phase III GRAVITAS-301 trial in patients with steroid-naïve acute GVHD, itacitinib plus corticosteroids did not meet the primary endpoint of improving ORR at Day 28 compared to placebo plus corticosteroids. Itacitinib is also being evaluated in GRAVITAS-309, a pivotal Phase III trial of itacitinib in patients with steroid-naïve chronic GVHD. The FDA has granted itacitinib orphan drug status for GVHD.

FGFR Inhibition

Pemigatinib is a potent and selective inhibitor of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) isoforms 1, 2 and 3 with demonstrated activity in preclinical studies. The FGFR family of receptor tyrosine kinases can act as oncogenic drivers in a number of liquid and solid tumor types.

We initiated the FIGHT clinical program to evaluate pemigatinib across a spectrum of cancers that are driven by FGF/FGFR alterations. The program initially included three Phase II trials – FIGHT-201 in patients with bladder cancer, FIGHT-202 in patients with cholangiocarcinoma, and FIGHT-203 in patients with 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (8p11 MPN). Based on data generated from these ongoing trials, we have initiated additional trials, including FIGHT-205, which is evaluating pemigatinib plus pembrolizumab versus pemigatinib alone versus standard of care for metastatic or unresectable urothelial carcinoma in cisplatin-ineligible patients whose tumors express FGFR3 mutation or rearrangement, and FIGHT-207 which is a solid tumor-agnostic trial evaluating pemigatinib in patients with driver-alterations of FGF/FGFR.

Table of Contents

In April 2020, we announced the FDA approval of pemigatinib as PEMAZYRE for the treatment of adults with previously treated, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an FGFR2 fusion or other rearrangement as detected by an FDA-approved test. Pemigatinib was previously granted Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA as a treatment for patients with previously treated, advanced/metastatic or unresectable FGFR2 translocated cholangiocarcinoma and has Breakthrough Therapy designation as a treatment for patients with myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with FGFR1 rearrangement (8p11 MPN) who have relapsed or are refractory to initial chemotherapy. In January 2020, we announced that the Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) for pemigatinib as a treatment of adults with locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an FGFR2 fusion or rearrangement that is relapsed or refractory after at least one line of systemic therapy had been validated by the European Medicines Agency (EMA).

CD19 antagonism

In January 2020, we and MorphoSys announced a collaboration and license agreement to further develop and commercialize MorphoSys' proprietary anti-CD19 antibody tafasitamab (MOR208) globally. The agreement became effective March 2020. Tafasitamab is an Fc-engineered antibody against CD19 currently in clinical development for the treatment of B cell malignancies. We have rights to co-commercialize tafasitamab in the U.S. with MorphoSys, and we have exclusive development and commercialization rights outside of the U.S.

Tafasitamab is being investigated as a therapeutic option in B cell malignancies in a number of ongoing combination trials. An open-label Phase II combination trial (L-MIND) is investigating the safety and efficacy of tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (r/r DLBCL), and the ongoing Phase III B-MIND trial is assessing the combination of tafasitamab and bendamustine versus rituximab and bendamustine in r/r DLBCL. First-MIND is a Phase Ib safety trial of tafasitamab as a first-line therapy for patients with DLBCL.

In February 2020, the FDA accepted MorphoSys' Biologics License Application (BLA) and granted Priority Review for tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide for the treatment of r/r DLBCL, setting a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date of August 30, 2020. In October 2017, based on interim data from L-MIND, the FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for tafasitamab plus lenalidomide for the treatment of r/r DLBCL.

PI3K-delta Inhibition

The PI3K-delta pathway mediates oncogenic signaling in B cell malignancies. Parsaclisib is a PI3K-delta inhibitor that has demonstrated potency and selectivity in preclinical studies and has potential therapeutic utility in the treatment of patients with lymphoma. We initiated the CITADEL clinical program to evaluate parsaclisib in non-Hodgkin lymphomas, and we are currently running Phase II trials in follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma.

PD-1 Antagonism

In October 2017, we and MacroGenics, Inc. announced an exclusive global collaboration and license agreement for MacroGenics’ retifanlimab (formerly INCMGA0012), an investigational monoclonal antibody that inhibits PD-1. Under this collaboration, we obtained exclusive worldwide rights for the development and commercialization of retifanlimab in all indications. The molecule is currently being evaluated both as monotherapy and in combination therapy across various tumor types. Potentially registration-enabling trials in anal cancer, microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) endometrial cancer and Merkel cell carcinoma are ongoing.

Preparations are ongoing to initiate the Phase III POD1UM-304 trial of retifanlimab in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy as a first-line treatment for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The planned initiation of the Phase III POD1UM-301 trial of retifanlimab in combination with chemoradiation therapy (CRT) in participants with unresectable, Stage III NSCLC has been withdrawn.

Table of Contents

Retifanlimab was recently granted Fast Track designation for the treatment of certain patients with advanced or metastatic MSI-H or DNA mismatch repair (dMMR) endometrial cancer and for the treatment of certain patients with locally advanced or metastatic squamous carcinoma of the anal canal.

Earlier-Stage Programs

We also have a number of other earlier-stage clinical programs, as detailed in the table below. We intend to describe these programs more fully if we obtain clinical proof-of-concept and establish that a program warrants further development in a specific indication or group of indications. Based on emerging data from the FGFR4 inhibitor program, development of INCB62079 has been discontinued because of insufficient efficacy in the target patient population.

Ruxolitinib cream

Atopic dermatitis. Atopic dermatitis is a skin disorder that causes the skin to become red, scaly, and itchy. Onset can occur at any age, but is more common in infants and children. In the United States, we estimate that there are approximately 10 million diagnosed and treated adolescent and adult patients with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis.

In April 2020, safety and efficacy data from the two Phase III trials in the TRuE-AD program evaluating ruxolitinib cream in mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis were presented at the Revolutionizing Atopic Dermatitis (RAD) virtual symposium; both trials met their primary endpoints. The 44-week long-term safety and efficacy portion of both the TRuE-AD1 and TRuE-AD2 trials are ongoing.

Vitiligo. Vitiligo is a long-term skin condition characterized by patches of the skin losing their pigment. It is estimated that vitiligo affects 0.5-2% of the US population and, therefore, there are at least 1.5 million patients in the United States with this disorder. There are no FDA approved treatments for repigmentation of vitiligo lesions.

In June 2019, primary endpoint data after 6 months of therapy from the Phase II trial of ruxolitinib cream in patients with vitiligo showed a significant benefit over vehicle control, and a global, pivotal Phase III program was initiated in September 2019. In October 2019, updated data from the Phase II trial showed, after 12 months of therapy, additional improvement in the repigmentation of vitiligo lesions.

Other

A Phase II trial of INCB54707, a JAK1 selective inhibitor, is ongoing in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa, an inflammatory skin disease. A Phase II trial of parsaclisib in patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia, a rare red blood cell disorder, is also ongoing.

A Phase II trial of INCB00928 is in preparation for patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, a disorder in which muscle tissue and connective tissue are gradually replaced by bone.

Partnered Programs

Baricitinib

We have a second JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitor, baricitinib, which is subject to our collaboration agreement with Lilly, in which Lilly received exclusive worldwide development and commercialization rights to the compound for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The Phase III program of baricitinib in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Table of Contents

incorporated all three rheumatoid arthritis populations (methotrexate naïve, biologic naïve, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor inadequate responders); used event rates to fully power the baricitinib program for structural comparison and non-inferiority vs. adalimumab; and evaluated patient-reported outcomes. All four Phase III trials met their respective primary endpoints.

In January 2016, Lilly submitted an NDA to the FDA and an MAA to the EMA for baricitinib as treatment for rheumatoid arthritis. In February 2017, we and Lilly announced that the European Commission approved baricitinib as OLUMIANT for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients who have responded inadequately to, or who are intolerant to, one or more disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). In July 2017, Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) granted marketing approval for OLUMIANTfor the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (including the prevention of structural injury of joints) in patients with inadequate response to standard-of-care therapies. In June 2018, the FDA approved the 2mg dose of OLUMIANT for the treatment of adults with moderately-to-severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have had an inadequate response to one or more tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor therapies.

Rheumatoid Arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease characterized by aberrant or abnormal immune mechanisms that lead to joint inflammation and swelling and, in some patients, the progressive destruction of joints. Rheumatoid arthritis can also affect connective tissue in the skin and organs of the body.

Current rheumatoid arthritis treatments include the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs, such as methotrexate, and the newer biological response modifiers that target pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor, implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis. None of these approaches to treatment is curative; therefore, there remains an unmet need for new safe and effective treatment options for these patients. Rheumatoid arthritis is estimated to affect about 1% of the world’s population.

Atopic Dermatitis. Atopic dermatitis (AtD) is a condition that makes the skin red and itchy and which is common in children but can occur at any age. Atopic dermatitis is long lasting and tends to flare periodically and then subside. Lilly has conducted a Phase IIa trial and a Phase III program to evaluate the safety and efficacy of baricitinib in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. The JAK-STAT pathway has been shown to play an essential role in the dysregulation of immune responses in atopic dermatitis. Therefore, we believe that inhibiting cytokine pathways dependent on JAK1 and JAK2 may lead to positive clinical outcomes in atopic dermatitis.

In February 2019, we and Lilly announced that baricitinib met the primary endpoint in BREEZE-AD1 and BREEZE-AD2, two Phase III studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of baricitinib monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with moderate to severe AtD and, in August 2019, we and Lilly announced that baricitinib met the primary endpoint in BREEZE-AD7, a Phase III study evaluating the efficacy and safety of baricitinib in combination with standard-of-care topical corticosteroids in patients with moderate to severe AtD. In January 2020, we and Lilly announced that baricitinib met the primary endpoint in both BREEZE-AD4 and BREEZE-AD5, the results of which complete the placebo-controlled data program intended to support global registrations. In January 2020, Lilly announced that baricitinib had been submitted for regulatory review in Europe as a treatment for patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic disease that causes inflammation. In addition to affecting the skin and joints, it can affect other organs in the body such as the kidneys, the tissue lining the lungs and heart, and the brain. Lilly has conducted a Phase II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of baricitinib in patients with SLE. Baricitinib’s activity profile suggests that it inhibits cytokines implicated in SLE such as type I interferon (IFN), type II IFN-γ, IL-6, and IL-23 as well as other cytokines that may have a role in SLE, including granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and IL-12. The potential impact of baricitinib on the IFN pathway is highly relevant to SLE, as clinical and preclinical studies have established that this pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of SLE. Lilly is currently running a Phase III trial of baricitinib in patients with SLE.

Alopecia Areata. Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system attacks the hair follicles, causing hair loss in patches. In March 2020, Lilly announced that baricitinib received Breakthrough Therapy designation for the treatment of alopecia areata, based on the positive Phase II results of Lilly’s adaptive Phase II/III study BRAVE-AA1. The Phase III portion of BRAVE-AA1 is ongoing.

Capmatinib

Capmatinib is a potent and highly selective MET inhibitor. The investigational compound has demonstrated inhibitory activity in cell-based biochemical and functional assays that measure MET signaling and MET dependent cell proliferation, survival and migration. Under our agreement, Novartis received worldwide exclusive development and commercialization rights to capmatinib and certain back-up compounds in all indications. Capmatinib is being evaluated in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer and other solid tumors, and may have potential utility as a combination agent.

MET is a clinically validated receptor kinase cancer target. Abnormal MET activation in cancer correlates with poor prognosis. Dysregulation of the MET pathway triggers tumor growth, formation of new blood vessels that supply the tumor with nutrients, and causes cancer to spread to other organs. Dysregulation of the MET pathway is seen in many types of cancers, including lung, kidney, liver, stomach, breast and brain.

In June 2019, we and Novartis announced positive updated results from the GEOMETRY mono-1 Phase II clinical trial of capmatinib in patients with advanced NSCLC harboring MET exon 14 skipping mutations. In December 2019, Novartis submitted the NDA seeking approval of capmatinib, and in February 2020 we and Novartis announced that the NDA had been accepted for Priority Review by the FDA. Capmatinib has also been granted Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA as a treatment for patients with metastatic NSCLC harboring MET exon-14 skipping mutations, both for treatment-naive patients and for patients previously treated with platinum-based chemotherapy.

NSCLC is the most common type of lung cancer, impacting more than 2 million people per year. Approximately 3-4 percent of all patients with NSCLC whose tumors have a mutation that leads to MET exon 14 skipping. Though rare, this mutation is an indicator of especially poor prognosis and poor responses to standard therapies, including immunotherapy. There is currently no approved therapy designed to selectively target this mutation.

License Agreements and Business Relationships

We establish business relationships, including collaborative arrangements with other companies and medical research institutions to assist in the clinical development and/or commercialization of certain of our drugs and drug candidates and to provide support for our research programs. We also evaluate opportunities for acquiring products or rights to products and technologies that are complementary to our business from other companies and medical research institutions.

Below is a brief description of our significant business relationships and collaborations and related license agreements that expand our pipeline and provide us with certain rights to existing and potential new products and technologies.

Novartis

Table of Contents

malignancies, solid tumors and myeloproliferative diseases. We retained exclusive development and commercialization rights to JAKAFI (ruxolitinib) in the United States and in certain other indications. Novartis also received worldwide exclusive development and commercialization rights to our MET inhibitor compound capmatinib and certain back-up compounds in all indications. We retained options to co-develop and to co-promote capmatinib in the United States.

Under this agreement, we received an upfront payment and immediate milestone payment totaling $210.0 million and were initially eligible to receive additional payments of up to approximately $1.2 billion if defined development and commercialization milestones are achieved. We are also eligible to receive tiered, double-digit royalties ranging from the upper-teens to the mid-twenties percent on future ruxolitinib net sales outside of the United States, and tiered, worldwide royalties on future capmatinib net sales that range from 12% to 14%. In addition, Novartis has received reimbursement and pricing approval for ruxolitinib in a specified number of countries, and we are now obligated to pay to Novartis tiered royalties in the low single-digits on future ruxolitinib net sales within the United States. Each company is responsible for costs relating to the development and commercialization of ruxolitinib in its respective territories, with costs of collaborative studies shared equally. Novartis is also responsible for all costs relating to the development and commercialization of capmatinib.

In April 2016, we amended this agreement to provide that Novartis has exclusive research, development and commercialization rights outside of the United States to ruxolitinib (excluding topical formulations) in the GVHD field. Under this amendment, we received a $5.0 million payment in exchange for the development and commercialization rights to ruxolitinib in GVHD outside of the United States and became eligible to receive up to $75.0 million of additional potential development and regulatory milestones relating to GVHD. In March 2017, we recognized a $25.0 million milestone for the first patient first visit in a GVHD study and in December 2017, we recognized a $40.0 million milestone for Novartis achieving annual net sales of a JAK licensed product of $600.0 million. In December 2018, we recognized a $60.0 million milestone for Novartis achieving annual net sales of a JAK licensed product of $900.0 million.

Lilly

We retained options to co-develop our JAK1/JAK2 inhibitors with Lilly on a compound-by-compound and indication-by-indication basis. Lilly is responsible for all costs relating to the development and commercialization of the compounds unless we elect to co-develop any compounds or indications. If we elect to co-develop any compounds and/or indications, we would be responsible for funding 30% of the associated future global development costs from the initiation of a Phase IIb trial through regulatory approval, including post-launch studies required by a regulatory authority. We would receive an incremental royalty rate increase across all tiers resulting in effective royalty rates ranging up to the high twenties on potential future global net sales for compounds and/or indications that we elect to co-develop. For indications that we elect not to co-develop, we would receive tiered, double-digit royalty payments on future global net sales with rates ranging up to 20% if the product is successfully commercialized. If we have started co-development funding for any indication, we can at any time opt out and stop future co-development cost sharing. If we elect to do this, we would still be eligible for our base royalties plus an incremental pro-rated royalty commensurate with our contribution to the total co-development

cost for those indications for which we co-funded. We previously had retained an option to co-promote products in the United States but, in March 2016, we waived our co-promotion option as part of an amendment to the agreement.

In July 2010, we elected to co-develop baricitinib with Lilly in rheumatoid arthritis, and subsequently in several additional indications, and became responsible for funding 30% of the associated global development costs for such indications from the initiation of the Phase IIb trial through regulatory approval, including post-launch studies required by a regulatory authority. In April 2019, we elected to end additional co-funding of the development of baricitinib in all indications, effective as of January 1, 2019. Pursuant to the terms of the Lilly agreement, we will continue to receive base tiered royalties on global net sales of OLUMIANT in all indications, as well as pro-rated incremental royalties, as described above.

In March 2016, we entered into an amendment to the agreement with Lilly that allows us to engage in the development and commercialization of ruxolitinib in the GVHD field. Upon execution of the amendment, we paid Lilly an upfront payment of $35.0 million and Lilly is eligible to receive up to $40.0 million in regulatory milestone payments relating to ruxolitinib in the GVHD field. In May 2019, the approval of JAKAFI in steroid-refractory acute GVHD triggered a $20.0 million milestone payment to Lilly.

In February 2017, the European Commission announced the approval of baricitinib as OLUMIANT, triggering a $65.0 million milestone payment from Lilly. In July 2017, Japan's MHLW granted marketing approval for OLUMIANT, triggering a $15.0 million milestone payment from Lilly. In December 2017, we recognized a $30.0 million milestone payment for the first patient treated in the atopic dermatitis Phase III program for baricitinib. In June 2018, the FDA approved the 2mg dose of OLUMIANT, triggering a $100.0 million milestone payment from Lilly. In September 2018, we recognized a $20.0 million milestone payment for the first patient treated in the systemic lupus erythematosus Phase III program for baricitinib.

Agenus

In January 2015, we entered into a License, Development and Commercialization Agreement with Agenus Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, 4-Antibody AG (now known as Agenus Switzerland Inc.), which we collectively refer to as Agenus. Under this agreement, the parties have agreed to collaborate on the discovery of novel immuno-therapeutics using Agenus’ antibody discovery platforms. In February 2017, we and Agenus amended this agreement.

Under the terms of this agreement, as amended, we received exclusive worldwide development and commercialization rights to four checkpoint modulators directed against GITR, OX40, LAG-3 and TIM-3. In addition to the initial four program targets, we and Agenus have the option to jointly nominate and pursue additional targets within the framework of the collaboration, and in November 2015, three more targets were added. Targets may be designated profit-share programs, where all costs and profits are shared equally by us and Agenus, or royalty-bearing programs, where we are responsible for all costs associated with discovery, preclinical, clinical development and commercialization activities. The programs relating to GITR and OX40 and two of the undisclosed targets were profit-share programs until February 2017, while the other targets currently under collaboration are royalty-bearing programs. The February 2017 amendment converted the programs relating to GITR and OX40 to royalty-bearing programs and removed from the collaboration the profit-share programs relating to the two undisclosed targets, with one reverting to us and one reverting to Agenus. Should any of those removed programs be successfully developed by a party, the other party will be eligible to receive the same milestone payments as the royalty-bearing programs and royalties at a 15% rate on global net sales. There are currently no profit-share programs. For each royalty-bearing product other than GITR and OX40, Agenus will be eligible to receive tiered royalties on global net sales ranging from 6% to 12%. For GITR and OX40, Agenus will be

Table of Contents

eligible to receive 15% royalties on global net sales. Under the February 2017 amendment, we paid Agenus $20.0 million in accelerated milestones relating to the clinical development of the GITR and OX40 programs. Agenus is eligible to receive up to an additional $510.0 million in future contingent development, regulatory and commercialization milestones across all programs in the collaboration. The agreement may be terminated by us for convenience upon 12 months’ notice and may also be terminated under certain other circumstances, including material breach.

Takeda (ARIAD)

In June 2016, we acquired from ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. all of the outstanding shares of ARIAD Pharmaceuticals (Luxembourg) S.à.r.l., the parent company of ARIAD’s European subsidiaries responsible for the development and commercialization of ICLUSIG in the European Union and other countries. We obtained an exclusive license to develop and commercialize ICLUSIG in Europe and other select countries. ARIAD was subsequently acquired by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited in 2017. As such, Takeda will be eligible to receive from us tiered royalties on net sales of ICLUSIG in our territory and up to $135.0 million in potential future oncology development and regulatory approval milestone payments, together with additional milestone payments for non-oncology indications, if approved, in our territory.

Merus

In December 2016, we entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement with Merus N.V.

Calithera

In January 2017, we entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement with Calithera Biosciences, Inc. Under this agreement, we received an exclusive, worldwide license to develop and commercialize small molecule arginase inhibitors, including INCB01158 (CB-1158), which is currently in Phase I clinical trials, for hematology and oncology indications. We have agreed to co-fund 70% of the global development costs for the development of the licensed products for hematology and oncology indications. Calithera will have the right to conduct certain clinical development under the collaboration, including combination studies of a licensed product with a proprietary compound of Calithera. We will be entitled to 60% of the profits and losses from net sales of licensed product in the United States, and Calithera will have the right to co-detail licensed products in the United States, and we have agreed to pay Calithera tiered royalties ranging from the low to mid-double digits on net sales of licensed products outside the United States. Calithera may opt out of its co-funding obligation, in which case the U.S. profit sharing will no longer be in effect, and we have agreed to pay Calithera tiered royalties ranging from the low to mid-double digits on net sales of licensed products both in the United States and outside the United States, and additional royalties to reimburse Calithera for previously incurred development costs.

Calithera retains rights to certain arginase inhibitors that are not part of the collaboration for specific orphan indications outside of hematology and oncology, subject to our rights to negotiate a license for any such programs under specified circumstances if Calithera elects to out-license them.

The Calithera agreement will continue on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis for so long as we are developing or commercializing products in the United States (if the parties are sharing profits in the United States) and until we have no further royalty payment obligations, unless earlier terminated according to the terms of the agreement. The agreement may be terminated in its entirety or on a product-by-product and/or a country-by-country basis by us for convenience. The agreement may also be terminated by us for Calithera’s uncured material breach, by Calithera for our uncured material breach and by either party for bankruptcy or patent challenge. If the agreement is terminated early with respect to one or more products or countries, all rights in the terminated products and countries revert to Calithera.

MacroGenics

Table of Contents

relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma. The agreement became effective in March 2020 after clearance by the German and Austrian antitrust authorities and expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.

In March 2020, we paid MorphoSys an upfront non-refundable payment of $750.0 million. MorphoSys is eligible to receive up to $740.0 million in future contingent development and regulatory milestones and up to $315.0 million in commercialization milestones as well as tiered royalties ranging from the mid-teens to mid-twenties of net sales outside of the United States. MorphoSys’ right to receive royalties in any particular country will expire upon the last to occur of (a) the expiration of patent rights in that particular country, (b) a specified period of time after the first post-marketing authorization sale of a licensed product comprising tafasitamab in that country, and (c) the expiration of any regulatory exclusivity for that licensed product in that country.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note 2 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a complete list of our significant accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue only when we have satisfied a performance obligation through transferring control of the promised good or service to a customer. Control, in this instance, may mean the ability to prevent other entities from directing the use of, and receiving benefit from, a good or service. The standard indicates that an entity must determine at contract inception whether it will transfer control of a promised good or service over time or satisfy the performance obligation at a point in time through analysis of the following criteria: (i) the entity has a present right to payment, (ii) the customer has legal title, (iii) the customer has physical possession, (iv) the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership and (v) the customer has accepted the asset. We assess collectability based primarily on the customer’s payment history and on the creditworthiness of the customer.

Product Revenues

Our product revenues consist of U.S. sales of JAKAFI and European sales of ICLUSIG. Product revenues are recognized once we satisfy the performance obligation at a point in time under the revenue recognition criteria as described above. We recognize revenues for product received by our customers net of allowances for customer credits, including estimated rebates, chargebacks, discounts, returns, distribution service fees, patient assistance programs, and government rebates, such as Medicare Part D coverage gap reimbursements in the U.S. These sales allowances and accruals are recorded based on estimates which are described in detail below. Estimates are assessed as of the end of each reporting

Table of Contents

period and are updated to reflect current information. We believe that our sales allowances and accruals are reasonable and appropriate based on current facts and circumstances.

Rebates and Discounts: We accrue rebates for mandated discounts under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program in the U.S. and mandated discounts in Europe in markets where government-sponsored healthcare systems are the primary payers for healthcare. These accruals are based on statutory discount rates and expected utilization as well as historical data we have accumulated since product launch. Our estimates for expected utilization of rebates are based on data received from our customers. Rebates are generally invoiced and paid in arrears so that the accrual balance consists of an estimate of the amount expected to be incurred for the current quarter’s activity, plus an accrual balance for known prior quarters’ unpaid rebates. If actual future rebates vary from estimates, we may need to adjust prior period accruals, which would affect revenue in the period of adjustment.

Chargebacks: Chargebacks are discounts that occur when certain contracted customers purchase directly from our wholesalers at a discounted price. The wholesalers, in turn, charges back to us the difference between the price initially paid by the wholesalers and the discounted price paid by the contracted customers. In addition to actual chargebacks received, we maintain an accrual for chargebacks based on the estimated contractual discounts on the inventory levels on hand in our distribution channel. If actual future chargebacks vary from these estimates, we may need to adjust prior period accruals, which would affect revenue in the period of adjustment.

Product Royalty Revenues

Royalty revenues on commercial sales for JAKAVI by Novartis are estimated based on information provided by Novartis. Royalty revenues on commercial sales for OLUMIANT by Lilly are estimated based on information provided by Lilly. We exercise judgment in determining whether the information provided is sufficiently reliable for us to base our royalty revenue recognition thereon. If actual royalties vary from estimates, we may need to adjust the prior period, which would affect royalty revenue and receivable in the period of adjustment.

Milestone and Contract Revenues

At the inception of a contract, the transaction price reflects the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to our collaborator. We review our estimate of the transaction price each period, and make revisions to such estimates as necessary. Milestone and contract revenues from collaborative agreements with multiple performance obligations is determined based upon assessment of each distinct promised good or

Table of Contents

service’s estimated fair value and recognized based upon the completion of the promised good or service to our collaborator.

Our license agreements often include contractual milestones, which typically relate to the achievement of pre-specified development, regulatory and commercialization events outside of our control, such as regulatory approval of a compound, first patient dosing or achievement of sales-based thresholds. As such, milestones associated with our collaborations involve a substantial degree of uncertainty and risk that they may never be received. Given the uncertainty associated with achieving these milestones, constraints on the allocated consideration are assessed each reporting period. Revenues are recognized when achievement is probable, which may not be until achieved.

Stock Compensation. Share-based payment transactions with employees, which include stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance shares (PSUs), are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period based on their estimated fair values at the date of grant as well as expected forfeiture rates based on actual experience. The stock compensation process requires significant judgment and the use of estimates, particularly surrounding Black-Scholes assumptions such as stock price volatility over the option term and expected option lives, as well as expected forfeiture rates and the probability of PSUs vesting. The fair value of stock options, which are subject to graded vesting, are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period using the accelerated attribution method. The fair value of RSUs that are subject to cliff vesting are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period using the straight-line attribution method, and the fair value of RSUs that are subject to graded vesting are recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period using the accelerated attribution method. The fair value of PSUs are recognized as compensation expense beginning at the time in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement. We assess the probability of achievement of performance conditions, including projected product revenues and clinical development milestones, as of the end of each reporting period. Once a performance condition is considered probable, we record compensation expense based on the portion of the service period elapsed to date with respect to that award, with a cumulative catch-up, net of estimated forfeitures, and recognize any remaining compensation expense, if any, over the remaining requisite service period using the straight-line attribution method for PSUs that are subject to cliff vesting and using the accelerated attribution method for PSUs that are subject to graded vesting.

Income Taxes. We account for income taxes using an asset and liability approach to financial accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for years in which the basis differences are expected to reverse. We periodically assess the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, and reduce the carrying amount of these deferred tax assets to an amount that is considered to be more-likely-than-not to be realizable. Our assessment considers recent cumulative earnings experience, projections of future taxable income (losses) and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. When performing our assessment on projections of future taxable income (losses), we consider factors such as the likelihood of regulatory approval and commercial success of products currently under development, among other factors. Significant judgment is required in making this assessment and, to the extent that a reversal of any portion of our valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets is deemed appropriate, a tax benefit will be recognized against our income tax provision in the period of such reversal.

We record estimates and prepare and file tax returns in various jurisdictions across the U.S., Europe, and Asia based upon our interpretation of local tax laws and regulations. While we exercise significant judgment when applying complex tax laws and regulations in these various taxing jurisdictions, many of our tax returns are open to audit, and may be subject to future tax, interest, and penalty assessments.

Table of Contents

We believe our estimates for the valuation allowances against certain deferred tax assets and the amount of benefits associated with uncertain tax positions recognized in our financial statements are appropriate based upon our assessment of the factors mentioned above.

Acquisition-related contingent consideration. Acquisition-related contingent consideration, which consists of our future royalty obligations to ARIAD/Takeda, was recorded on the acquisition date at the estimated fair value of the obligation, in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using an income approach based on estimated ICLUSIG revenues in the European Union and other countries. As the fair value measurement is based on significant inputs that are unobservable in the market, this represents a Level 3 measurement.

The fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration is remeasured each reporting period, with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The assumptions used to determine the fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration include projected ICLUSIG revenues and discount rates which, require significant judgement and are analyzed on a quarterly basis. While we use the best available information to prepare our projected ICLUSIG revenues and discount rate assumptions, actual ICLUSIG revenues and/or market conditions could differ significantly. Changes to one or multiple inputs could have a material impact on the amount of acquisition-related contingent consideration expense recorded during the reporting period.

The increase in JAKAFI product revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period in 2019 was comprised of a volume increase of $81.6 million and a price increase of $2.3 million. Our product revenues may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to our customers’ purchasing patterns over the course of the year, including as a result of increased inventory building by customers in advance of expected or announced price increases. Product revenues are recorded net of estimated product returns, pricing discounts including rebates offered pursuant to mandatory federal and state government programs and chargebacks, prompt pay discounts and distribution fees and co-pay assistance. Our revenue recognition policies require estimates of the aforementioned sales allowances each period.

Government rebates and chargebacks are the most significant component of our sales allowances. Increases in certain government reimbursement rates are limited to a measure of inflation, and when the price of a drug increases faster than this measure of inflation it will result in a penalty adjustment factor that causes a larger sales allowance to those government related entities. We expect government rebates and chargebacks as a percentage of our gross product sales will continue to increase in connection with any future JAKAFI price increases greater than the rate of inflation, and any such increase in these government rebates and chargebacks will have a negative impact on our reported product revenues, net. We adjust our estimates for government rebates and chargebacks based on new information regarding actual rebates as it becomes available. Claims by third-party payors for rebates and chargebacks are frequently submitted after the period in which the related sales occurred, which may result in adjustments to prior period accrual balances in the period in which the new information becomes available. We also adjust our allowance for product returns based on new information regarding actual returns as it becomes available.

We expect our sales allowances to fluctuate from quarter to quarter as a result of the Medicare Part D Coverage Gap, the volume of purchases eligible for government mandated discounts and rebates as well as changes in discount percentages which are impacted by potential future price increases, rate of inflation, and other factors.

Product royalty revenues on commercial sales of JAKAVI by Novartis are based on net sales of licensed products in licensed territories as provided by Novartis. Product royalty revenues on commercial sales of OLUMIANT by Lilly are based on net sales of licensed products in licensed territories as provided by Lilly.

Our milestone and contract revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2019, were derived from a $40.0 million payment under the Innovent research collaboration and licensing agreement.

Cost of Product Revenues.

product revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period in 2019 was due primarily to increased royalties to Novartis on all JAKAFI sales in the United States.

Operating Expenses.

Research and development expenses


	For the Three Months Ended,
	March 31,
	2020		2019
	(in millions)
Salary and benefits related	$	68.1	$	63.0
Stock compensation		28.7		27.4
Clinical research and outside services		963.6		153.8
Occupancy and all other costs		24.9		26.3
Total research and development expenses	$	1,085.3	$	270.5

We account for research and development costs by natural expense line and not costs by project. The increase in salary and benefits related expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period in 2019 was due primarily to increased development headcount to sustain our development pipeline. Stock compensation expense may fluctuate from period to period based on the number of awards granted, stock price volatility and expected award lives, as well as expected award forfeiture rates which are used to value equity-based compensation.

The increase in clinical research and outside services expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period in 2019 was primarily due to upfront consideration related to our collaborative agreement with MorphoSys recorded during 2020. Research and development expenses include upfront and milestone expenses related to our collaborative agreements of $805.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were net of $1.7 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of costs reimbursed by our collaborative partners.

In addition to one-time expenses resulting from upfront fees in connection with the entry into any new or amended collaboration agreements and payment of milestones under those agreements, research and development expenses may fluctuate from period to period depending upon the stage of certain projects and the level of pre-clinical and clinical trial related activities. Many factors can affect the cost and timing of our clinical trials, including requests by regulatory agencies for more information, inconclusive results requiring additional clinical trials, slow patient enrollment, adverse side effects among patients, insufficient supplies for our clinical trials and real or perceived lack of effectiveness or safety of our investigational drugs in our clinical trials. In addition, the development of all of our products will be subject to extensive governmental regulation. These factors make it difficult for us to predict the timing and costs of the further development and approval of our products.

Selling, general and administrative expenses


	For the Three Months Ended,
	March 31,
	2020		2019
	(in millions)
Salary and benefits related	$	36.1	$	31.4
Stock compensation		13.6		13.0
Other contract services and outside costs		61.4		79.6
Total selling, general and administrative expenses	$	111.1	$	124.0

The increase in salary and benefits related expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period in 2019 was due primarily to increased headcount. This increased headcount was due primarily to the ongoing commercialization efforts related to JAKAFI for intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, uncontrolled polycythemia vera and GVHD as well as increased headcount related to our European operations. The decrease in other

Table of Contents

contract services and outside costs for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period in 2019 was due primarily to the timing of certain expenses. Stock compensation expense may fluctuate from period to period based on the number of awards granted, stock price volatility and expected award lives, as well as expected award forfeiture rates which are used to value equity-based compensation.

Change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration

Acquisition-related contingent consideration, which consists of our future royalty obligations to Takeda, was recorded on the acquisition date, June 1, 2016, at the estimated fair value of the obligation, in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration is remeasured quarterly. The change in fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $6.6 million and $6.7 million, respectively, which is recorded in change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The change in fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was due primarily to the passage of time as there were no other significant changes in the key assumptions during the periods.

Collaboration loss sharing

Under the collaboration and license agreement with MorphoSys, which was executed in March 2020, we and MorphoSys are both responsible for the commercialization efforts of tafasitamab in the United States and will share equally the profits and losses from the co-commercialization efforts. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our 50% share of the costs for tafasitamab was $2.1 million as recorded in collaboration loss sharing on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Other income (expense).

Other income (expense), net. Other income (expense), net for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $8.7 million and $9.4 million, respectively. The decrease in other income (expense), net primarily relates to lower interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $0.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Included in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of non-cash charges to amortize the discounts on our convertible senior notes due November 2020.

Unrealized gain (loss) on long term investments. Unrealized gains and losses on long term investments will fluctuate from period to period, based on the change in fair value of the securities we hold in our publicly held collaboration partners. The following table provides a summary of those unrealized gains and (losses):


	For the Three Months Ended,

Total unrealized gain (loss) on long term investments	$	(48.1)	$	21.0

Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $16.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The increase in provision for income taxes primarily relates to federal and state tax liabilities that are not fully sheltered by net operating losses or research and development tax credit carryforwards. The increase was also driven by reduced tax benefits for stock-based compensation in the current period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Due to historical net losses, we had an accumulated deficit of $2.2 billion as of March 31, 2020. We have funded our research and development operations through sales of equity securities, the issuance of convertible notes, cash received from customers, and collaborative arrangements. At March 31, 2020, we had available cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $1.3 billion. Our cash and marketable securities balances are held in a variety of interest-bearing instruments, including money market accounts, and U.S. government debt securities. Available cash is invested in accordance with our investment policy’s primary objectives of liquidity, safety of principal and diversity of investments.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $683.4 million and net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $155.7 million. The $839.1 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to cash outflows in March 2020 related to our collaboration and license agreement with MorphoSys and changes in working capital.

Our investing activities, other than purchases, sales and maturities of marketable securities, have consisted predominantly of capital expenditures and purchases of long term investments. Net cash used in investing activities was $108.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, which represented purchases of marketable securities of $147.4 million, capital expenditures of $39.3 million and purchases of long term equity investments of $95.5 million, offset in part by the sale and maturity of marketable securities of $173.6 million. Net cash used in investing activities was $24.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, which represented purchases of marketable securities of $34.6 million, capital expenditures of $18.3 million, offset in part by the sale and maturity of marketable securities of $28.3 million. In the future, net cash used by investing activities may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to the timing of strategic equity investments, acquisitions, capital expenditures and maturities/sales and purchases of marketable securities.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, primarily representing proceeds from the issuance of common stock under our stock plans, offset in part by cash paid to ARIAD/Takeda for contingent consideration during the first quarter of 2020.

The following summarizes our significant contractual obligations as of March 31, 2020 and the effect those obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flow in future periods (in millions):

We have entered into and may in the future seek to license additional rights relating to technologies or drug development candidates in connection with our drug discovery and development programs. Under these licenses, we may be required to pay upfront fees, milestone payments, and royalties on sales of future products, which are not reflected in the table above.

In October 2019, we entered into an agreement with Wilmington Friends School Inc., to purchase property for $50.0 million to expand our global headquarters. Under that agreement, closing of the purchase is subject to certain standard closing conditions, including an initial diligence period and a subsequent approval period.

We believe that our cash flow from operations, together with our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, will be adequate to satisfy our capital needs for the foreseeable future. Our cash requirements depend on numerous factors, including our expenditures in connection with our drug discovery and development programs and commercialization operations; expenditures in connection with litigation or other legal proceedings; costs for future facility requirements; our

Table of Contents

receipt of any milestone or other payments under any collaborative agreements we may enter into, including the agreements with Novartis, Lilly, Innovent and Zai Lab; and expenditures in connection with strategic relationships and license agreements, including our agreements with Agenus, ARIAD/Takeda, Calithera, Lilly, MacroGenics, MorphoSys, Merus and Syros, strategic equity investments or potential acquisitions. To the extent we seek to augment our existing cash resources and cash flow from operations to satisfy our cash requirements for future acquisitions or other strategic purposes, we expect that additional funding can be obtained through equity or debt financings or from other sources. The sale of equity or additional convertible debt securities in the future may be dilutive to our stockholders, and may provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our holders of common stock. Debt financing arrangements may require us to pledge certain assets or enter into covenants that could restrict our operations or our ability to incur further indebtedness.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements other than those that are discussed above.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our investments in marketable securities, which are composed primarily of U.S. government debt securities, are subject to default, changes in credit rating and changes in market value. These investments are also subject to interest rate risk and will decrease in value if market interest rates increase. As of March 31, 2020, marketable securities were $259.4 million. Due to the nature of these investments, if market interest rates were to increase immediately and uniformly by 10% from levels as of March 31, 2020, the decline in fair value would not be material.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) for the three months ended March 31, 2020, that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

RISKS RELATING TO COMMERCIALIZATION OF OUR PRODUCTS

We depend heavily on our lead product, JAKAFI (ruxolitinib), which is marketed as JAKAVI outside the United States. If we are unable to successfully commercialize JAKAFI in its approved indications or to successfully obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize ruxolitinib for the treatment of additional indications, or if we are significantly delayed or limited in doing so, our business may be materially harmed.

JAKAFI is our first product marketed by us that is approved for sale in the United States. JAKAFI was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, in November 2011 for the treatment of patients with intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, in December 2014 for the treatment of patients with polycythemia vera who have had an inadequate response to or are intolerant of hydroxyurea, which we refer to as uncontrolled polycythemia vera, and in May 2019 for the treatment of steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease in adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older. Although we have received regulatory approval for these indications, such approval does not guarantee future revenues. While in June 2016 we acquired exclusive rights to develop and commercialize ICLUSIG in the European Union, or EU, and other countries, in June 2018 the FDA approved for sale OLUMIANT (baricitinib), which we exclusively licensed to Eli Lilly and Company, for the treatment of specified rheumatoid arthritis indications, and in April 2020, the FDA approved for sale PEMAZYRE for the treatment of specified cholangiocarcinoma indications, we anticipate that JAKAFI product sales will continue to contribute a significant percentage of our total revenues over the next several years.

The commercial success of JAKAFI and our ability to generate and maintain revenues from the sale of JAKAFI will depend on a number of factors, including:

●

the number of patients with intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, uncontrolled polycythemia vera or steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease who are diagnosed with the diseases and the number of such patients that may be treated with JAKAFI;

●

the acceptance of JAKAFI by patients and the healthcare community;

●

whether physicians, patients and healthcare payors view JAKAFI as therapeutically effective and safe relative to cost and any alternative therapies;

●

the ability to obtain and maintain sufficient coverage or reimbursement by third-party payors and pricing;

●

the ability of our third-party manufacturers to manufacture JAKAFI in sufficient quantities that meet all applicable quality standards;

●

the ability of our company and our third-party providers to provide marketing and distribution support for JAKAFI;

●

the effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic, any associated quarantine, travel restriction, stay-at-home or shutdown orders, guidelines or practices, and any disruption in our supply chain for JAKAFI on our ability to provide marketing and distribution support for JAKAFI, our ability to produce sufficient quantities of JAKAFI that meet all applicable quality standards, patient demand (including new patient prescriptions) and other risks detailed further below under “—Other Risks Relating to our Business—Public health epidemics, such as the COVID-19 Pandemic, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition”;

●

the label and promotional claims allowed by the FDA;

Table of Contents

●

the maintenance of regulatory approval for the approved indications in the United States; and

●

our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize ruxolitinib in the United States for additional indications.

If we are not able to maintain revenues from JAKAFI in the United States, or our revenues from JAKAFI decrease, our business may be materially harmed and we may need to delay other drug discovery, development and commercialization initiatives or even significantly curtail operations, and our ability to license or acquire new products to diversify our revenue base could be limited.

In addition, our receipt of royalties under our collaboration agreements with Novartis for sales of JAKAVI outside the United States and with Lilly for worldwide sales of OLUMIANT will depend on factors similar to those listed above, with similar regulatory, pricing and reimbursement issues driven by applicable regulatory authorities and governmental and third-party payors affecting jurisdictions outside the United States.

If we are unable to obtain, or maintain at anticipated levels, reimbursement for our products from government health administration authorities, private health insurers and other organizations, our pricing may be affected or our product sales, results of operations or financial condition could be harmed.

We may not be able to sell our products on a profitable basis or our profitability may be reduced if we are required to sell our products at lower than anticipated prices or reimbursement is unavailable or limited in scope or amount. The costs of JAKAFI and ICLUSIG are not insignificant and the costs of PEMAZYRE are similarly expected not to be insignificant and almost all patients will require some form of third-party coverage to afford their cost. Our future revenues and profitability will be adversely affected if we cannot depend on government and other third-party payors to defray the cost of our products to the patient. Reimbursement systems in international markets vary significantly by country and by region, and reimbursement approvals must be obtained on a country-by-country basis. Reimbursement in the EU must be negotiated on a country-by-country basis and in many countries the product cannot be commercially launched until reimbursement is approved. The timing to complete the negotiation process in each country is highly uncertain, and in some countries, we expect that it may exceed 12 months. Risks related to pricing and reimbursement are described below under “—Other Risks Relating to our Business—Health care reform measures could impact the pricing and profitability of pharmaceuticals, and adversely affect the commercial viability of our or our collaborators’ products and drug candidates. Our ability to generate revenues will be diminished if we or our collaborators are unable to obtain an adequate level of reimbursement from private insurers, government insurance programs or other third party payors of health care costs, which could be affected by current and potential healthcare reform legislation, and diminished revenues will harm our operating results and financial condition and could adversely affect our ability to conduct our research and development operations.” If government and other third-party payors refuse to provide coverage and reimbursement with respect to our products, determine to provide a lower level of coverage and reimbursement than anticipated, reduce previously approved levels of coverage and reimbursement, or delay reimbursement payments due to budgetary constraints relating to the COVID-19 Pandemic, then our pricing or reimbursement for our products may be affected and our product sales, results of operations or financial condition could be harmed.

We depend upon a limited number of specialty pharmacies and wholesalers for a significant portion of any revenues from JAKAFI, and the loss of, or significant reduction in sales to, any one of these specialty pharmacies or wholesalers could adversely affect our operations and financial condition.

We sell JAKAFI primarily to specialty pharmacies and wholesalers. Specialty pharmacies dispense JAKAFI to patients in fulfillment of prescriptions and wholesalers sell JAKAFI to hospitals and physician offices. We do not promote JAKAFI to specialty pharmacies or wholesalers, and they do not set or determine demand for JAKAFI. Our ability to successfully commercialize JAKAFI will depend, in part, on the extent to which we are able to provide adequate distribution of JAKAFI to patients. Although we have contracted with a number of specialty pharmacies and wholesalers, they are expected generally to carry a very limited inventory and may be reluctant to be part of our distribution network in the future if demand for the product does not increase. Further, it is possible that these specialty pharmacies and wholesalers could decide to change their policies or fees, or both, at some time in the future. This could result in their refusal to carry smaller volume products such as JAKAFI, or lower margins or the need to find alternative methods of distributing our

Table of Contents

product. Although we believe we can find alternative channels to distribute JAKAFI on relatively short notice, our revenue during that period of time may suffer and we may incur additional costs to replace any such specialty pharmacy or wholesaler. The loss of any large specialty pharmacy or wholesaler as part of our distribution network, a significant reduction in sales we make to specialty pharmacies or wholesalers, or any failure to pay for the products we have shipped to them could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

If we are unable to establish and maintain effective sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, or to enter into agreements with third parties to do so, we will not be able to successfully commercialize our products.

Under our collaboration and license agreement with Novartis, we have retained commercialization rights to JAKAFI in the United States. We have established commercial capabilities in the United States, but cannot guarantee that we will be able to enter into and maintain any marketing, distribution or third-party logistics agreements with third-party providers on acceptable terms, if at all. In connection with our June 2016 acquisition from ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. we licensed rights to develop and commercialize ICLUSIG in certain countries and we acquired the European sales, marketing and distribution operations of ARIAD. We may not be able to maintain those operations or retain their personnel or distribution arrangements. We may not be able to correctly judge the size and experience of the sales and marketing force and the scale of distribution capabilities necessary to successfully market and sell any new products. Establishing and maintaining sales, marketing and distribution capabilities are expensive and time-consuming. Competition for personnel with experience in sales and marketing can be high. Our expenses associated with building and maintaining the sales force and distribution capabilities may be disproportional compared to the revenues we may be able to generate on sales of our products.

To the extent that we are able to obtain marketing approval for ruxolitinib cream for dermatology indications such as atopic dermatitis and vitiligo, we will have to establish and maintain sales, marketing and distribution capabilities that will generally be separate from our existing capabilities for oncology indications, and we have no prior experience in commercializing products for dermatology indications. Successful commercialization of our drug candidates for dermatology indications, if approved, will require us to establish new physician and payor relationships, reimbursement strategies and governmental interactions. Our inability to commercialize successfully products in indications outside of oncology could harm our business and operating results.

If we fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations, we could lose our approval to market our products or be subject to other governmental enforcement activity.

We cannot guarantee that we will be able to maintain regulatory approval to market our products in the jurisdictions in which they are currently marketed. If we do not maintain our regulatory approval to market our products, in particular JAKAFI, our results of operations will be materially harmed. We and our collaborators, third-party manufacturers and suppliers are subject to rigorous and extensive regulation by the FDA and other federal and state agencies as well as foreign governmental agencies. These regulations continue to apply after product marketing approval, and cover, among other things, testing, manufacturing, quality control and assurance, labeling, advertising, promotion, risk mitigation, and adverse event reporting requirements.

The commercialization of our products is subject to post-regulatory approval product surveillance, and our products may have to be withdrawn from the market or subject to restrictions if previously unknown problems occur. Regulatory agencies may also require additional clinical trials or testing for our products, and our products may be recalled or may be subject to reformulation, additional studies, changes in labeling, warnings to the public and negative publicity. For example, from late 2013 through 2014, ICLUSIG was subject to review by the European Medicines Agency, or EMA, of the benefits and risks of ICLUSIG to better understand the nature, frequency and severity of events obstructing the arteries or veins, the potential mechanism that leads to these side effects and whether there needed to be a revision in the dosing recommendation, patient monitoring and a risk management plan for ICLUSIG. This review was completed in January 2015, with additional warnings in the product information but without any change in the approved indications. The EMA could take additional actions in the future that reduce the commercial potential of ICLUSIG.

Table of Contents

Failure to comply with the laws and regulations administered by the FDA or other agencies could result in:

●

administrative and judicial sanctions, including warning letters;

●

fines and other civil penalties;

●

suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approval to market or manufacture our products;

●

interruption of production;

●

operating restrictions;

●

product recall or seizure;

●

injunctions; and

●

criminal prosecution.

The occurrence of any such event may have a material adverse effect on our business.

If the use of our products harms patients, or is perceived to harm patients even when such harm is unrelated to our products, our regulatory approvals could be revoked or otherwise negatively impacted or we could be subject to costly and damaging product liability claims.

The testing of JAKAFI, ICLUSIG and PEMAZYRE, the manufacturing, marketing and sale of JAKAFI and PEMAZYRE and the marketing and sale of ICLUSIG expose us to product liability and other risks. Side effects and other problems experienced by patients from the use of our products could:

●

lessen the frequency with which physicians decide to prescribe our products;

●

encourage physicians to stop prescribing our products to their patients who previously had been prescribed our products;

●

cause serious harm to patients that may give rise to product liability claims against us; and

●

result in our need to withdraw or recall our products from the marketplace.

If our products are used by a wide patient population, new risks and side effects may be discovered, the rate of known risks or side effects may increase, and risks previously viewed as less significant could be determined to be significant.

Previously unknown risks and adverse effects of our products may also be discovered in connection with unapproved, or off-label, uses of our products. We are prohibited by law from promoting or in any way supporting or encouraging the promotion of our products for off-label uses, but physicians are permitted to use products for off-label purposes. In addition, we are studying and expect to continue to study JAKAFI in diseases for potential additional indications in controlled clinical settings, and independent investigators are doing so as well. In the event of any new risks or adverse effects discovered as new patients are treated for intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, uncontrolled polycythemia vera or acute graft-versus-host disease and as JAKAFI is studied in or used by patients for off-label indications, regulatory authorities may delay or revoke their approvals, we may be required to conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in labeling of JAKAFI, reformulate JAKAFI or make changes and obtain new approvals. We may also experience a significant drop in the sales of JAKAFI, experience harm to our reputation and the reputation of JAKAFI in the marketplace or become subject to lawsuits, including class actions. Any of these results could decrease or prevent

Table of Contents

sales of JAKAFI or substantially increase the costs and expenses of commercializing JAKAFI. Similar results could occur with respect to our commercialization of ICLUSIG and PEMAZYRE.

Patients who have been enrolled in our clinical trials or who may use our products in the future often have severe and advanced stages of disease and known as well as unknown significant pre-existing and potentially life-threatening health risks. During the course of treatment, patients may suffer adverse events, including death, for reasons that may or may not be related to our products. Such events could subject us to costly litigation, require us to pay substantial amounts of money to injured patients, delay, negatively impact or end our opportunity to receive or maintain regulatory approval to market our products, or require us to suspend or abandon our commercialization efforts. Even in a circumstance in which we do not believe that an adverse event is related to our products, the investigation into the circumstance may be time consuming or inconclusive. These investigations may interrupt our sales efforts, impact and limit the type of regulatory approvals our products receive or maintain, or delay the regulatory approval process in other countries.

Factors similar to those listed above also apply to our collaboration partner Novartis, to ICLUSIG for jurisdictions outside the United States, to our collaboration partner Lilly for all jurisdictions and to our collaboration partner Innovent for PEMAZYRE in the jurisdictions in which it has development and commercialization rights.

If we market our products in a manner that violates various laws and regulations, we may be subject to civil or criminal penalties.

In addition to FDA and related regulatory requirements, we are subject to health care “fraud and abuse” laws, such as the federal False Claims Act, the anti-kickback provisions of the federal Social Security Act, and other state and federal laws and regulations. Federal and state anti-kickback laws prohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully offering, paying, soliciting or receiving remuneration to induce, or in return for purchasing, leasing, ordering or arranging for the purchase, lease or order of any health care item or service reimbursable under Medicare, Medicaid, or other federally- or state-financed health care programs. Federal false claims laws prohibit any person from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, a false claim for payment to the federal government, or knowingly making, or causing to be made, a false statement to get a false claim paid. Pharmaceutical companies have been prosecuted under these laws for a variety of alleged promotional and marketing activities.

Although physicians are permitted, based on their medical judgment, to prescribe products for indications other than those approved by the FDA, manufacturers are prohibited from promoting their products for such off-label uses. We market JAKAFI for intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, uncontrolled polycythemia vera and acute graft-versus-host disease and provide promotional materials to physicians regarding the use of JAKAFI for these indications. Although we believe that our promotional materials for physicians do not constitute improper promotion of JAKAFI, the FDA or other agencies may disagree. If the FDA or another agency determines that our promotional materials or other activities constitute improper promotion of JAKAFI, it could request that we modify our promotional materials or other activities or subject us to regulatory enforcement actions, including the issuance of a warning letter, injunction, seizure, civil fine and criminal penalties. It is also possible that other federal, state or foreign enforcement authorities might take action if they believe that the alleged improper promotion led to the submission and payment of claims for an unapproved use, which could result in significant fines or penalties under other statutory authorities, such as laws prohibiting false claims for reimbursement. Even if it is later determined we are not in violation of these laws, we may be faced with negative publicity, incur significant expenses defending our position and have to divert significant management resources from other matters. Similar risks will exist for our marketing of PEMAZYRE.

The European Union and member countries, as well as governmental authorities in other countries, impose similar strict restrictions on the promotion and marketing of drug products. The off-label promotion of medicinal products is prohibited in the EU and in other territories, and the EU also maintains strict controls on advertising and promotional materials. The promotion of medicinal products that are not subject to a marketing authorization is also prohibited in the EU. Violations of the rules governing the promotion of medicinal products in the EU and in other territories could be penalized by administrative measures, fines and imprisonment.

The majority of states also have statutes or regulations similar to the federal anti-kickback law and false claims laws, which apply to items and services reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs, or, in several states, apply

Table of Contents

regardless of the payor. Numerous states and localities have enacted or are considering enacting legislation requiring pharmaceutical companies to establish marketing compliance programs, file periodic reports or make periodic public disclosures on sales, marketing, pricing, clinical trials, and other activities. Additionally, as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the federal government has enacted the Physician Payment Sunshine provisions. The Sunshine provisions and similar laws and regulations in other jurisdictions where we do business require manufacturers to publicly report certain payments or other transfers of value made to physicians and teaching hospitals. Many of these requirements are new and uncertain, and the penalties for failure to comply with these requirements are unclear. Nonetheless, if we are found not to be in full compliance with these laws, we could face enforcement action and fines and other penalties, which could be significant in amount or result in exclusion from federal healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. Any action initiated against us for violation of these laws, even if we successfully defend against it, could require the expenditure of significant resources and generate negative publicity, which could harm our business and operating results. See also “—Other Risks Relating to our Business—If we fail to comply with the extensive legal and regulatory requirements affecting the health care industry, we could face increased costs, penalties and a loss of business” below.

Competition for our products could harm our business and result in a decrease in our revenue.

Present and potential competitors for JAKAFI could include major pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, as well as specialty pharmaceutical firms. For example, in August 2019, Celgene Corporation, now a subsidiary of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, announced that the FDA had approved INREBIC (fedratinib) for the treatment of myelofibrosis. See “—Other Risks Relating to our Business— We face significant competition for our drug discovery and development efforts, and if we do not compete effectively, our commercial opportunities will be reduced or eliminated” for a description of risks relating to this type of competition. In addition, JAKAFI could face competition from generic products. As a result of the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, commonly known as the Hatch-Waxman Act, in the United States, generic manufacturers may seek approval of a generic version of an innovative pharmaceutical by filing with the FDA an Abbreviated New Drug Application, or ANDA. The Hatch-Waxman Act provides significant incentives to generic manufacturers to challenge U.S. patents on successful innovative pharmaceutical products. In February 2016, we received a notice letter regarding an ANDA that requested approval to market a generic version of JAKAFI and purported to challenge patents covering ruxolitinib phosphate and its use that expire in 2028. The notice letter does not challenge the ruxolitinib composition of matter patent, which expires in December 2027. To date, to our knowledge, the FDA has taken no action with respect to this ANDA. Separately, in January 2018 the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) of United States Patent and Trademark Office denied a petition challenging our patent covering deuterated ruxolitinib analogs and the PTAB subsequently denied Concert’s Request for Rehearing in May 2018. Nevertheless, Concert still has the right separately to challenge the validity of the patent in federal court. There can be no assurance that our patents will be upheld or that any litigation in which we might engage with any such generic manufacturer would be successful in protecting JAKAFI’s exclusivity. The entry of a generic version of JAKAFI could result in a decrease in JAKAFI sales and materially harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

ICLUSIG currently competes with existing therapies that are approved for the treatment of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, or CML, who are resistant or intolerant to prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor, or TKI, therapies, on the basis of, among other things, efficacy, cost, breadth of approved use and the safety and side-effect profile. In addition, generic versions of imatinib are available and, while we currently believe that generic versions of imatinib will not materially impact our commercialization of ICLUSIG, given ICLUSIG’s various indication statements globally that are currently focused on resistant or intolerant CML, we cannot be certain how physicians, payors, patients, regulatory authorities and other market participants will respond to the availability of generic versions of imatinib.

Present and potential competitors for PEMAZYRE could include major pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, as well as specialty pharmaceutical firms.

OTHER RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS

Public health epidemics, such as the COVID-19 Pandemic, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Our global operations expose us to risks associated with public health epidemics, such as the COVID-19 Pandemic that has spread globally. The extent to which the COVID-19 Pandemic and the measures taken to limit COVID-19’s spread impact our operations and those of our suppliers, collaborators, service providers and healthcare organizations serving patients, as well as demand for our drug products, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak and any future resurgence of the outbreak, additional or modified government actions, including any further restrictions or reopening of local, state or national social or economic activity, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others.

As a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, we may experience disruptions that could severely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition, including the following:

●

To protect the health of our employees and their families, and our communities, in accordance with – and in some cases in advance or - direction from state and local government authorities, we have restricted access to our facilities to personnel and third parties who must perform critical activities that must be completed on-site, and requested that most of our personnel work remotely. In the event that governmental authorities were to further modify current restrictions, our employees conducting research and development activities may not be able to access our laboratory space, and our research and development activities may be significantly limited or curtailed, possibly for an extended period of time. These research and development activities could include completing Investigational New Drug (IND)/Clinical Trial Application (CTA)-enabling studies, our ability to select future development candidates, and initiation of additional clinical trials for our development programs. Having a significant portion of our employees work from home can strain our information technology infrastructure, which may affect our ability to operate effectively, may make us more susceptible to communications disruptions, and expose us to greater cybersecurity risks.

●

Our sales and marketing activities, including our interactions with healthcare professionals, have been limited and made more difficult by the work from home orders and travel restrictions, and we cannot predict the effects on patient demand or future sales if there are prolonged quarantines, work from home orders or travel restrictions.

●

Our clinical trials may be affected by delays in site initiation, patient screening, patient enrollment, and monitoring and data collection as a result of prioritization of hospital resources for the COVID-19 Pandemic, travel restrictions, and the inability to access sites for initiation and monitoring. In addition, some patients may be unable to comply with clinical trial protocols if quarantines or stay at home orders impede patient movement or interrupt health services, we may be unable to obtain blood samples for testing, and we may not be able to provide the trial drug candidate to patients.

●

Health regulatory agencies globally may experience disruptions in their operations as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. The FDA and comparable foreign regulatory agencies may have slower response times or be under-resourced to continue to monitor our clinical trials and, as a result, review, inspection, and other timelines may be materially delayed. If any of these disruptions occur, we cannot predict how long they may last. Our drug candidate application reviews and potential approvals could be impacted or delayed by these disruptions, if they occur.

●

The outbreak and measures taken to limit the spread of the outbreak, especially if prolonged, could also disrupt our supply chain or limit our ability to obtain sufficient materials for our drug products and product candidates, which could adversely affect our revenues and clinical trial timelines. Currently, our supply chain for our drug products and product candidates depends on operations by us and by other companies in multiple countries around the world, and the effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic or any or all of these countries is uncertain and unpredictable and potential disruption is possible. And, for JAKAFI, while our strategy is to maintain a 24 month

Table of Contents

stock of API, inclusive of finished product, ruxolitinib phosphate might be used by us either to make JAKAFI or for ruxolitinib drug candidates in clinical trials.

●

The deterioration of worldwide credit and financial markets could result in losses on our holdings of cash and investments due to failures of financial institutions and other parties, and interruptions and delays in our ability to collect, or potential losses on, our accounts receivable.

Our collaborators could be affected by similar factors as those that have or could affect our business. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic or a similar health epidemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of potential impacts or delays on our or our collaborators’ businesses, our revenues, including milestone and royalty revenues from our collaborators, our and our collaborators’ clinical trials, healthcare systems or the global economy as a whole. However, these effects could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

We may be unsuccessful in our efforts to discover and develop drug candidates and commercialize drug products.

Our long-term success, revenue growth and diversification of revenues depends on our ability to obtain regulatory approval for new drug products and new indications for our existing drug products. Our ability to discover and develop drug candidates and to commercialize additional drug products and indications will depend on our ability to:

●

hire and retain key employees;

●

identify high quality therapeutic targets;

●

identify potential drug candidates;

●

develop products internally or license drug candidates from others;

●

identify and enroll suitable human subjects, either in the United States or abroad, for our clinical trials;

●

complete laboratory testing;

●

commence, conduct and complete safe and effective clinical trials on humans;

●

obtain and maintain necessary intellectual property rights to our products;

●

obtain and maintain necessary regulatory approvals for our products, both in the United States and abroad;

●

enter into arrangements with third parties to provide services or to manufacture our products on our behalf;

●

deploy sales, marketing, distribution and manufacturing resources effectively or enter into arrangements with third parties to provide these functions in compliance with all applicable laws;

●

obtain appropriate coverage and reimbursement levels for the cost of our products from governmental authorities, private health insurers and other third-party payors;

●

lease facilities at reasonable rates to support our growth; and

●

enter into arrangements with third parties to license and commercialize our products.

We may not be successful in discovering, developing, or commercializing additional drug products or our existing drug products in new indications. Discovery and development of drug candidates are expensive, uncertain and time-consuming, and we do not know if our efforts will lead to discovery of any drug candidates that can be successfully

Table of Contents

developed and marketed. Of the compounds or biologics that we identify as potential drug products or that we may in-license from other companies, including potential products for which we are conducting clinical trials, only a few, if any, are likely to lead to successful drug development programs and commercialized drug products.

We depend heavily on the success of our most advanced drug candidates. We might not be able to commercialize any of our drug candidates successfully, and we may spend significant time and money attempting to do so.

We have invested significant resources in the development of our most advanced drug candidates. Ruxolitinib is in Phase III clinical trials for the treatment of patients with steroid-refractory graft-versus-host disease and is in other clinical trials. Itacitinib is in Phase III clinical trials for the treatment of patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease. Further, we have a number of drug candidates in Phase I and Phase II clinical trials. Our ability to generate product revenues will depend on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our most advanced drug candidates. We, or our collaborators or licensees, may decide to discontinue development of any or all of our drug candidates at any time for commercial, scientific or other reasons. For example: in early 2016, we decided to discontinue the clinical trials of ruxolitinib in pancreatic cancer and solid tumors and itacitinib in pancreatic cancer; and, in April 2018, we along with Merck stopped the ECHO-301 study with epacadostat, and we also significantly downsized the epacadostat development program. In addition, in January 2020 we announced that itacitinib did not meet the primary endpoint in the Phase III clinical trial for the treatment of patients with acute graft-versus-host disease. If a product is developed but not approved or marketed, we may have spent significant amounts of time and money on it, which could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition as well as our business plans.

If we or our collaborators are unable to obtain regulatory approval for our drug candidates in the United States and foreign jurisdictions, we or our collaborators will not be permitted to commercialize products resulting from our research.

In order to commercialize drug products in the United States, drug candidates will have to obtain regulatory approval from the FDA. Satisfaction of regulatory requirements typically takes many years. To obtain regulatory approval, we or our collaborators, as the case may be, must first show that our drug candidates are safe and effective for target indications through preclinical testing (animal testing) and clinical trials (human testing). Preclinical testing and clinical development are long, expensive and uncertain processes, and we do not know whether the FDA will allow us or our collaborators to undertake clinical trials of any drug candidates in addition to our compounds currently in clinical trials. If regulatory approval of a product is granted, this approval will be limited to those disease states and conditions for which the product is demonstrated through clinical trials to be safe and effective.

Completion of clinical trials may take several years and failure may occur at any stage of testing. The length of time required varies substantially according to the type, complexity, novelty and intended use of the drug candidate. Interim results of a preclinical test or clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results, and acceptable results in early clinical trials may not be repeated in later clinical trials. For example, a drug candidate that is successful at the preclinical level may cause harmful or dangerous side effects when tested at the clinical level. Our rate of commencement and completion of clinical trials may be delayed, and existing clinical trials with our drug candidates may be stopped, due to many potential factors, including:

●

the high degree of risk and uncertainty associated with drug development;

●

our inability to formulate or manufacture sufficient quantities of materials for use in clinical trials;

●

variability in the number and types of patients available for each study;

●

difficulty in maintaining contact with patients after treatment, resulting in incomplete data;

●

unforeseen safety issues or side effects;

●

poor or unanticipated effectiveness of drug candidates during the clinical trials; or

Table of Contents

●

government or regulatory delays.

Data obtained from clinical trials are susceptible to varying interpretation, which may delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industry, including our company, have suffered significant setbacks in advanced clinical trials, even after achieving promising results in earlier clinical trials. In addition, regulatory authorities may refuse or delay approval as a result of other factors, such as changes in regulatory policy during the period of product development and regulatory agency review. For example, the FDA has in the past required, and could in the future require, that we or our collaborators conduct additional trials of any of our drug candidates, which would result in delays. In April 2017, we and our collaborator Lilly announced that the FDA had issued a complete response letter for the New Drug Application, or NDA, of OLUMIANT as a once-daily oral medication for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis. The letter indicated that additional clinical data were needed to determine the most appropriate doses and to further characterize safety concerns across treatment arms. In June 2018, after a resubmission of the NDA, the FDA approved the 2mg dose of OLUMIANT for the treatment of adults with moderately-to-severely active rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response to one or more tumor necrosis factor inhibitor therapies. The FDA did not at that time approve any higher dose of OLUMIANT and required a warning label in connection with its approval.

Compounds or biologics developed by us or with or by our collaborators and licensees may not prove to be safe and effective in clinical trials and may not meet all of the applicable regulatory requirements needed to receive marketing approval. For example, in January 2016, a Phase II trial that was evaluating ruxolitinib in combination with regorafenib in patients with relapsed or refractory metastatic colorectal cancer and high C-reactive protein was stopped early after a planned analysis of interim efficacy data determined that the likelihood of the trial meeting its efficacy endpoint was insufficient. In addition, in February 2016, we made a decision to discontinue our JANUS 1 study, our JANUS 2 study, our other studies of ruxolitinib in colorectal, breast and lung cancer, and our study of INCB39110 in pancreatic cancer after a planned analysis of interim efficacy data of JANUS 1 demonstrated that ruxolitinib plus capecitabine did not show a sufficient level of efficacy to warrant continuation. Also, in April 2018, we along with Merck announced that the ECHO-301 study had been stopped and we also significantly downsized the epacadostat development program and in January 2020 we stopped our Phase III trial of itacitinib for the treatment of acute graft-versus-host-disease. If clinical trials of any of our compounds or biologics are stopped for safety, efficacy or other reasons or fail to meet their respective endpoints, our overall development plans, business, prospects, expected operating results and financial condition could be materially harmed and the value of our company could be negatively affected.

Outside the United States, our and our collaborators’ ability to market a product is contingent upon receiving a marketing authorization from the appropriate regulatory authorities. This foreign regulatory approval process typically includes all of the risks associated with the FDA approval process described above and may also include additional risks. The requirements governing the conduct of clinical trials, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement vary greatly from country to country and may require us to perform additional testing and expend additional resources. Approval by the FDA does not ensure approval by regulatory authorities in other countries, and approval by one foreign regulatory authority does not ensure approval by regulatory authorities in other countries or by the FDA.

Health care reform measures could impact the pricing and profitability of pharmaceuticals, and adversely affect the commercial viability of our or our collaborators’ products and drug candidates. Our ability to generate revenues will be diminished if we or our collaborators are unable to obtain an adequate level of reimbursement from private insurers, government insurance programs or other third-party payors of health care costs, which could be affected by current and potential healthcare reform legislation, and diminished revenues will harm our operating results and financial condition and could adversely affect our ability to conduct our research and development operations.

Our ability to commercialize our current and any future approved products successfully will depend in part on the prices we are able to charge for our approved products and the extent to which adequate reimbursement levels for the cost of our products and related treatment are obtained from third-party payors, such as private insurers, government insurance programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, health maintenance organizations (HMOs) and other health care related organizations in the U.S. and abroad.

Table of Contents

In recent years, through legislative and regulatory actions, the U.S. federal government has made substantial changes to various payment systems under the Medicare and other federal health care programs. Comprehensive reforms to the U.S. healthcare system were enacted, including changes to the methods for, and amounts of, Medicare reimbursement. While there is currently significant uncertainty regarding the implementation of some of these reforms or the scope of amended or additional reforms, the implementation of reforms could significantly reduce payments from Medicare and Medicaid. Reforms or other changes to these payment systems may change the availability, methods and rates of reimbursements from Medicare, private insurers and other third-party payors for our current and any future approved products. Some of these changes and proposed changes could result in reduced reimbursement rates or in eliminating dual sources of payment, which could reduce the price that we or any of our collaborators or licensees receive for any products in the future, and which would adversely affect our business strategy, operations and financial results.

In addition, there has been an increasing legislative and enforcement interest in the United States with respect to drug pricing practices. This has resulted in several recent federal and state proposals to regulate prices of pharmaceutical products and other health care reforms, any of which could limit the prices that we can charge for our products and may further limit the commercial viability of our products and drug candidates. Specifically, there have been several federal congressional inquiries and proposed and enacted federal and state legislation designed to, among other things, bring more transparency to drug pricing, reduce the cost of prescription drugs under Medicare, reform government program reimbursement methodologies for prescription drugs, allow importation of drugs into the U.S. from other countries and limit allowable prices for drugs to a function of an average international reference price that may be substantially lower than what we currently or would otherwise charge. In certain foreign markets, pricing or profitability of prescription pharmaceuticals is subject to government control. We expect that the health care reform measures that have been adopted in the United States and in foreign markets, and further reforms that may be adopted in the future, could result in more rigorous coverage criteria and additional downward pressure on the prices that we may receive for our approved products. If reimbursement for our products is unavailable or limited in scope or amount, or if pricing is set at unsatisfactory levels, our business could be materially harmed, including by our revenue potentially being materially adversely affected and our research and development efforts potentially being materially curtailed or, in some cases, ceasing. There may be future changes that result in reductions in current prices, coverage and reimbursement levels for our current or any future approved products, and we cannot predict the scope of any future changes or the impact that those changes would have on our operations.

The consequences of the COVID-19 Pandemic, including the economic effect on government budgets in the U.S. and elsewhere, may accelerate any of the healthcare reform efforts described above or result in future reform efforts, any of which could have adverse effects on our business, including higher costs for us, lower reimbursement rates for our products and lower demand for our products.

If third parties institute high co-payment amounts or other benefit limits for our products, the demand for our products and, accordingly, our revenues and results of operations, could be adversely affected. Our patient assistance programs have provided support for non-profit organizations that provide financial assistance to eligible patients or in some cases have provided our products without charge to patients who have no or limited insurance coverage through these charitable organizations. Substantial support in this manner could harm our profitability in the future. Further, those organizations’ ability to provide assistance to patients is dependent on funding from external sources, and we cannot guarantee that such funding will be provided at adequate levels, or at all.

Further, if we become the subject of any governmental or other regulatory hearing or investigation with respect to the pricing of our products or other business practices, we could incur significant expenses and could be distracted from the operation of our business and execution of our business strategy. Any such hearing or investigation could also result in significant negative publicity and harm to our reputation, reduced market acceptance and demand, which could adversely affect our financial results and growth prospects.

Third-party payors are increasingly challenging the prices charged for medical products and services. Also, the trend toward managed health care in the United States, the organizations for which could control or significantly influence the purchase of health care services and products, as well as legislative and regulatory proposals to reform health care or reduce government insurance programs, may all result in lower prices for or rejection of our products. Adoption of our products by the medical community may be limited without adequate reimbursement for those products. Cost control

Table of Contents

initiatives may decrease coverage and payment levels for our products and, in turn, the price that we will be able to charge for any product. Our products may not be considered cost-effective, and coverage and reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a profitable basis. We are unable to predict all changes to the coverage or reimbursement methodologies that will be applied by private or government payors to our current and any future approved products.

The continuing efforts of legislatures, health agencies and third-party payors to contain or reduce the costs of health care, any denial of private or government payor coverage or inadequate reimbursement for our drug candidates could materially and adversely affect our business strategy, operations, future revenues and profitability, and the future revenues and profitability of our potential customers, suppliers, collaborators and licensees and the availability of capital. The same risks apply to our compounds developed and marketed by our collaborators, and our future potential milestone and royalty revenues could be affected in a similar manner.

We depend on our collaborators and licensees for the future development and commercialization of some of our drug candidates. Conflicts may arise between our collaborators and licensees and us, or our collaborators and licensees may choose to terminate their agreements with us, which may adversely affect our business.

We have licensed to Novartis rights to ruxolitinib outside of the United States and worldwide rights to our MET inhibitor compounds and licensed to Lilly worldwide rights to baricitinib. In addition, we have licensed to Innovent and to Zai Lab certain Asian rights to some of our clinical stage compounds. Under the terms of our agreements with these collaborators, we have no or limited control over the further clinical development of these drug candidates in the relevant territories and any revenues we may receive if these drug candidates receive regulatory approval and are commercialized in the relevant territories will depend primarily on the development and commercialization efforts of others. While OLUMIANT was approved by the European Commission in February 2017 for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients and by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare in July 2017 for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in patients with inadequate response to standard-of-care therapies, the NDA for OLUMIANT for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis was approved in June 2018, and only in the lower dosage tablet and with a warning label. Delays in any marketing approval by the FDA, European or other regulatory authorities, or any label modifications or restrictions in connection with any such approval, or the existence of other risks relating to approved drug products, including those described under “Risks Relating to Commercialization of Our Products,” could delay the receipt of and reduce resulting potential royalty and milestone revenue from baricitinib or any of our other out-licensed drug candidates.

Conflicts may arise with our collaborators and licensees if they pursue alternative technologies or develop alternative products either on their own or in collaboration with others as a means for developing treatments for the diseases that we have targeted. Competing products and product opportunities may lead our collaborators and licensees to withdraw their support for our drug candidates. Any failure of our collaborators and licensees to perform their obligations under our agreements with them or otherwise to support our drug candidates could negatively impact the development of our drug candidates, lead to our loss of potential revenues from product sales and milestones and delay our achievement, if any, of profitability. Additionally, conflicts may arise if, among other things, there is a dispute about the achievement and payment of a milestone amount or the ownership of intellectual property that is developed during the course of a collaborative relationship.

Our existing collaborative and license agreements can be terminated by our collaborators and licensees for convenience, among other circumstances. If any of our collaborators or licensees terminates its agreement with us, or terminates its rights with respect to certain indications or drug candidates, we may not be able to find a new collaborator for them, and our business could be adversely affected. Should an agreement be terminated before we have realized the benefits of the collaboration or license, our reputation could be harmed, we may not obtain revenues that we anticipated receiving, and our business could be adversely affected.

The success of our drug discovery and development efforts may depend on our ability to find suitable collaborators to fully exploit our capabilities. If we are unable to establish collaborations or if these future collaborations are unsuccessful in the development and commercialization of our drug candidates, our research, development and commercialization efforts may be unsuccessful, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

An element of our business strategy is to enter into collaborative or license arrangements with other parties, under which we license our drug candidates to those parties for development and commercialization or under which we study our drug candidates in combination with other parties’ compounds or biologics. For example, in addition to our Novartis, Lilly, Innovent and Zai Lab collaborations, we have entered into clinical study relationships with respect to several of our programs, including epacadostat, and are evaluating strategic relationships with respect to several of our other programs. However, because collaboration and license arrangements are complex to negotiate, we may not be successful in our attempts to establish these arrangements. Also, we may not have drug candidates that are desirable to other parties, or we may be unwilling to license a drug candidate to a particular party because such party interested in it is a competitor or for other reasons. The terms of any such arrangements that we establish may not be favorable to us. Alternatively, potential collaborators may decide against entering into an agreement with us because of our financial, regulatory or intellectual property position or for scientific, commercial or other reasons. If we are not able to establish collaboration or license arrangements, we may not be able to develop and commercialize a drug product, which could adversely affect our business and our revenues.

We will likely not be able to control the amount and timing of resources that our collaborators or licensees devote to our programs or drug candidates. If our collaborators or licensees prove difficult to work with, are less skilled than we originally expected, do not devote adequate resources to the program, are unable to obtain regulatory approval of our drug candidates, pursue alternative technologies or develop alternative products, or do not agree with our approach to development or manufacturing of the drug candidate, the relationship could be unsuccessful. Our collaborations with respect to epacadostat involved the study of our collaborators’ drugs used in combination with epacadostat on a number of indications or tumor types, many of which were the same across multiple collaborations. We cannot assure you that potential conflicts will not arise or be alleged among these collaborations. If a business combination involving a collaborator or licensee and a third-party were to occur, the effect could be to terminate or cause delays in development of a drug candidate.

If we fail to enter into additional licensing agreements or if these arrangements are unsuccessful, our business and operations might be adversely affected.

In addition to establishing collaborative or license arrangements under which other parties license our drug candidates for development and commercialization or under which we study our drug candidates in combination with such parties’ compounds or biologics, we may explore opportunities to develop our clinical pipeline by in-licensing drug candidates or therapeutics targets that fit within our focus on oncology, such as our collaborations with Agenus Inc., Calithera Biosciences, Inc., MacroGenics, Inc., Merus N.V., MorphoSys AG, and Syros Pharmaceuticals, Inc., or explore additional opportunities to further develop and commercialize existing drug candidates in specific jurisdictions, such as our June 2016 acquisition of the development and commercialization rights to ICLUSIG in certain countries. We may be unable to enter into any additional in-licensing agreements because suitable drug candidates that are within our expertise may not be available to us on terms that are acceptable to us or because competitors with greater resources seek to in-license the same drug candidates. Drug candidates that we would like to develop or commercialize may not be available to us because they are controlled by competitors who are unwilling to license the rights to the drug candidate to us. In addition, we may enter into license agreements that are unsuccessful and our business and operations might be adversely affected if we are unable to realize the expected economic benefits of a collaboration or other licensing arrangement, by the termination of a drug candidate and termination and winding down of the related license agreement, or due to other business or regulatory issues, including financial difficulties, that may adversely affect a licensor’s ability to continue to perform its obligations under an in-license agreement. For example, we may make or incur contractual obligations to make significant upfront payments in connection with licenses for late-stage drug candidates, such as we recently did in entering into a collaboration agreement with MorphoSys in January 2020, and if any of those drug candidates do not receive marketing approval as anticipated or we have to fund additional clinical trials before marketing approval can be obtained, we will have expended significant funds that might otherwise be applied for other uses or have to expend funds that were

Table of Contents

not otherwise budgeted or anticipated in connection with the collaboration, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our stock price and our ability to pursue other transactions. As discussed above under “We depend on our collaborators and licensees for the future development and commercialization of some of our drug candidates. Conflicts may arise between our collaborators and licensees and us, or our collaborators and licensees may choose to terminate their agreements with us, which may adversely affect our business,” conflicts or other issues may arise with our licensors. Those conflicts could result in delays in our plans to develop drug candidates or result in the expenditure of additional funds to resolve those conflicts that could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. We may also need to license drug delivery or other technology in order to continue to develop our drug candidates. If we are unable to enter into additional agreements to license drug candidates, drug delivery technology or other technology or if these arrangements are unsuccessful, our research and development efforts could be adversely affected.

Even if a drug candidate that we develop receives regulatory approval, we may decide not to commercialize it if we determine that commercialization of that product would require more money and time than we are willing to invest.

Even if any of our drug candidates receives regulatory approval, it could be subject to post-regulatory surveillance, and may have to be withdrawn from the market or subject to restrictions if previously unknown problems occur. Regulatory agencies may also require additional clinical trials or testing, and the drug product may be recalled or may be subject to reformulation, additional studies, changes in labeling, warnings to the public and negative publicity. As a result, we may not continue to commercialize a product even though it has obtained regulatory approval. Further, we may decide not to continue to commercialize a product if the market does not accept the product because it is too expensive or because third parties such as insurance companies or Medicare, have not approved it for substantial reimbursement. In addition, we may decide not to continue to commercialize a product if competitors develop and commercialize similar or superior products or have proprietary rights that preclude us from ultimately marketing our products.

Any approved drug product that we bring to the market may not gain market acceptance by physicians, patients, healthcare payors and others in the medical community.

Even if we or our collaborators are successful in gaining regulatory approval of any of our drug candidates in addition to JAKAFI, OLUMIANT and PEMAZYRE or acquire rights to approved drug products in addition to ICLUSIG, we may not generate significant product revenues if these drug products do not achieve an adequate level of acceptance. Physicians may not recommend our or our collaborators’ drug products until longer-term clinical data or other factors demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our or our collaborators’ drug products as compared to other alternative treatments. Even if the clinical safety and efficacy of our or our collaborators’ drug products is established, physicians may elect not to prescribe these drug products for a variety of reasons, including the reimbursement policies of government and other third-party payors and the effectiveness of our or our collaborators’ competitors in marketing their products.

Market acceptance of our drug products, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including the following, and market acceptance of our collaborators’ drug products will depend on similar factors:

●

the willingness and ability of patients and the healthcare community to use our drug products;

●

the ability to manufacture our drug products in sufficient quantities that meet all applicable quality standards and to offer our drug products for sale at competitive prices;

●

the perception of patients and the healthcare community, including third-party payors, regarding the safety, efficacy and benefits of our drug products compared to those of competing products or therapies;

●

the label and promotional claims allowed by the FDA;

●

the pricing and reimbursement of our drug products relative to existing treatments; and

●

marketing and distribution support for our drug products.

We have limited capacity to conduct preclinical testing and clinical trials, and our resulting dependence on other parties could result in delays in and additional costs for our drug development efforts.

We have limited internal resources and capacity to perform preclinical testing and clinical trials. As part of our development strategy, we often hire clinical research organizations, or CROs, to perform preclinical testing and clinical trials for drug candidates. If the CROs that we hire to perform our preclinical testing and clinical trials do not meet deadlines, do not follow proper procedures, or a conflict arises between us and our CROs, our preclinical testing and clinical trials may take longer than expected, may cost more, may be delayed or may be terminated. If we were forced to find a replacement entity to perform any of our preclinical testing or clinical trials, we may not be able to find a suitable entity on favorable terms, or at all. Even if we were able to find another company to perform a preclinical test or clinical trial, the delay in the test or trial may result in significant additional expenditures. Events such as these may result in delays in our obtaining regulatory approval for our drug candidates or our ability to commercialize our products and could result in increased expenditures that would adversely affect our operating results.

We face significant competition for our drug discovery and development efforts, and if we do not compete effectively, our commercial opportunities will be reduced or eliminated.

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are intensely competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our drug discovery and development efforts may target diseases and conditions that are already subject to existing therapies or that are being developed by our competitors, many of which have substantially greater resources, larger research and development staffs and facilities, more experience in completing preclinical testing and clinical trials, and formulation, marketing and manufacturing capabilities. As a result of these resources, our competitors may develop drug products that render our products obsolete or noncompetitive by developing more effective drugs, developing their products more efficiently or pricing their products more competitively. Our ability to develop competitive products would be limited if our competitors succeeded in obtaining regulatory approvals for drug candidates more rapidly than we were able to or in obtaining patent protection or other intellectual property rights that limited our drug development efforts. Any drug products resulting from our research and development efforts, or from our joint efforts with collaborators or licensees, might not be able to compete successfully with our competitors’ existing and future products, or obtain regulatory approval in the United States or elsewhere. The development of products or processes by our competitors with significant advantages over those that we are developing could harm our future revenues and profitability.

Our reliance on other parties to manufacture our drug products and drug candidates could result in a short supply of the drugs, delays in clinical trials or drug development, increased costs, and withdrawal or denial of a regulatory authority’s approval.

We do not currently operate manufacturing facilities for clinical or commercial production of JAKAFI, PEMAZYRE and our other drug candidates or for ICLUSIG. We currently hire third parties to manufacture the raw materials, active pharmaceutical ingredient, or API, and finished drug product of JAKAFI, ICLUSIG, PEMAZYRE and our other drug candidates for clinical trials. In addition, we expect to continue to rely on third parties for the manufacture of commercial supplies of raw materials, API and finished drug product for any drugs that we successfully develop. We also hire third parties to package and label the finished product. The FDA requires that the raw materials, API and finished product for JAKAFI, PEMAZYRE and our other drug candidates be manufactured according to its current Good Manufacturing Practices regulations and regulatory authorities in other countries have similar requirements. There are only a limited number of manufacturers that comply with these requirements. Failure to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices and the applicable regulatory requirements of other countries in the manufacture of our drug candidates and products could result in the FDA or a foreign regulatory authority halting our clinical trials, withdrawing or denying regulatory approval of our drug product, enforcing product recalls or other enforcement actions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We may not be able to obtain sufficient quantities of our drug candidates or any drug products we may develop if our designated manufacturers do not have the capacity or capability to manufacture them according to our schedule and specifications. Manufacturers of pharmaceutical products often encounter difficulties in production, especially in scaling up initial production. These problems include difficulties with production costs and yields, quality control and assurance and shortages of qualified personnel. To the extent our supply chain involves parties in China or materials originating in

Table of Contents

areas of China that are or could be affected by disease outbreaks such as the COVID-19 Pandemic in 2020, we could see disruptions to our supply chain. Currently, our supply chain for our drug products and product candidates depends on operations by us and by other companies in multiple countries around the world, and the effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic or any or all of these countries is uncertain and unpredictable and potential disruption is possible. And, for JAKAFI, while our strategy is to maintain a 24 months stock of API, inclusive of finished product, ruxolitinib phosphate might be used by us either to make JAKAFI or for ruxolitinib drug candidates in clinical trials. In addition, we may not be able to arrange for our drug candidates or any drug products that we may develop to be manufactured by one of these parties on reasonable terms, if at all. We generally have a single source or a limited number of suppliers that are qualified to supply each of the API and finished product of JAKAFI, ICLUSIG, PEMAZYRE and our other drug candidates and, in the case of JAKAFI, we only have a single source for its raw materials. If any of these suppliers were to become unable or unwilling to supply us with raw materials, API or finished product that complies with applicable regulatory requirements, we could incur significant delays in our clinical trials or interruption of commercial supply that could have a material adverse effect on our business. If we have promised delivery of a drug candidate or drug product and are unable to meet the delivery requirement due to manufacturing difficulties, our development programs could be delayed, we may have to expend additional sums in order to ensure that manufacturing capacity is available when we need it even if we do not use all of the manufacturing capacity, and our business and operating results could be harmed.

We may not be able to adequately manage and oversee the manufacturers we choose, they may not perform as agreed or they may terminate their agreements with us. Foreign manufacturing approval processes typically include all of the risks associated with the FDA approval process for manufacturing and may also include additional risks.

A number of our collaborations involve the manufacture of antibodies. Either we or our collaborators have primary responsibility for manufacturing activities, and we are currently using third-party contract manufacturing organizations. Manufacturing antibodies and products containing antibodies is a more complex process than manufacturing small molecule drugs and subject to additional risks. The process of manufacturing antibodies and products containing antibodies is highly susceptible to product loss due to contamination, equipment failure or improper installation or operation of equipment, vendor or operator error, inconsistency in yields, variability in product characteristics, and difficulties in scaling up the production process. Even minor deviations from normal manufacturing processes could result in reduced production yields, product defects and other supply disruptions. If microbial, viral or other contaminations are discovered in our product candidates or in the manufacturing facilities in which our product candidates are made, such manufacturing facilities may need to be closed for an extended period of time to investigate and remedy the contamination.

If we fail to comply with the extensive legal and regulatory requirements affecting the health care industry, we could face increased costs, penalties and a loss of business.

Our activities, and the activities of our collaborators, partners and third-party providers, are subject to extensive government regulation and oversight both in the United States and in foreign jurisdictions. The FDA and comparable agencies in other jurisdictions directly regulate many of our most critical business activities, including the conduct of preclinical and clinical studies, product manufacturing, advertising and promotion, product distribution, adverse event reporting and product risk management. States increasingly have been placing greater restrictions on the marketing practices of healthcare companies and have instituted pricing disclosure and other requirements for companies selling pharmaceuticals. In addition, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies have been the target of lawsuits and investigations alleging violations of government regulations, including claims asserting submission of incorrect pricing information, improper promotion of pharmaceutical products, payments intended to influence the referral of federal or state healthcare business, submission of false claims for government reimbursement, antitrust violations, violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act and similar anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws, or violations related to environmental matters. There is also enhanced scrutiny of company-sponsored patient assistance programs, including insurance premium and co-pay assistance programs and donations to third-party charities that provide such assistance. In December 2018, we received a civil investigative demand from the U.S. Department of Justice for documents and information relating to our speaker programs and patient assistance programs, including our support of non-profit organizations that provide financial assistance to eligible patients. Violations of governmental regulation by us, our vendors or donation recipients may be punishable by criminal and civil sanctions, including damages, fines and penalties and exclusion from participation in government programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. In addition to damages, fines and penalties for violation of laws and regulations, we could be required to repay amounts we received from government

Table of Contents

payors, or pay additional rebates and interest if we are found to have miscalculated the pricing information we have submitted to the government. Actions taken by federal or local governments, legislative bodies and enforcement agencies with respect to these legal and regulatory compliance matters could also result in reduced demand for our products, reduced coverage of our products by health care payors, or both. We cannot ensure that our compliance controls, policies, and procedures will in every instance protect us from acts committed by our employees, collaborators, partners or third-party providers that would violate the laws or regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Whether or not we have complied with the law, an investigation into alleged unlawful conduct could increase our expenses, damage our reputation, divert management time and attention and adversely affect our business. Risks relating to compliance with laws and regulations may be heightened as we continue to expand our global operations and enter new therapeutic areas with different patient populations, which due to different product distribution methods, marketing programs or patient assistance programs may result in additional regulatory burdens and obligations.

The illegal distribution and sale by third parties of counterfeit or unfit versions of our or our collaborators’ products or stolen products could harm our business and reputation.

We are aware that counterfeit versions of our products have been distributed or sold by entities not authorized by us using product packaging suggesting that the product was provided by us. If unauthorized third parties illegally distribute and sell counterfeit versions of our or our collaborators’ products, those products may not meet our or our collaborators’ rigorous manufacturing, distribution and handling standards. In addition, inventory that is stolen from warehouses, plants or while in-transit, and that is subsequently improperly stored and sold through unauthorized channels, may not meet our or our collaborators’ distribution and handling standards. A patient who receives a counterfeit or unfit drug may suffer dangerous health consequences. Our reputation and business could suffer harm as a result of counterfeit or unfit drugs sold under our brand name and could result in lost sales for us and decreased revenues. If counterfeit or unfit drugs are sold under our or our collaborators’ brand names, our reputation and business could suffer harm and we could experience decreased royalty revenues.

As most of our drug discovery and development operations are conducted at our headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware, the loss of access to this facility would negatively impact our business.

Our facility in Wilmington, Delaware is our headquarters and is also where we conduct most of our drug discovery, research, development and marketing activities. In addition, natural disasters, the effects of or measures taken to limit the effects of health epidemics such as the COVID-19 Pandemic, or actions of activists opposed to aspects of pharmaceutical research may disrupt our experiments or our ability to access or use our facility. The loss of access to or use of our Wilmington, Delaware facility, either on a temporary or permanent basis, would result in an interruption of our business and, consequently, would adversely affect our overall business.

We depend on key employees in a competitive market for skilled personnel, and the loss of the services of any of our key employees or our inability to attract and retain additional personnel would affect our ability to expand our drug discovery and development programs and achieve our objectives.

We are highly dependent on the members of our executive management team and principal members of our commercial, development, medical, operations and scientific staff. We experience intense competition for qualified personnel. Our future success also depends in part on the continued service of our executive management team and key personnel and our ability to recruit, train and retain essential personnel for our drug discovery and development programs, and for our medical affairs and commercialization activities. If we lose the services of any of these people or if we are unable to recruit sufficient qualified personnel, our research and product development goals, and our commercialization efforts could be delayed or curtailed. We do not maintain “key person” insurance on any of our employees.

If we fail to manage our growth effectively, our ability to develop and commercialize products could suffer.

We expect that if our drug discovery efforts continue to generate drug candidates, our clinical drug candidates continue to progress in development, and we continue to build our development, medical and commercial organizations, we will require significant additional investment in personnel, management and resources. Our ability to achieve our research, development and commercialization objectives depends on our ability to respond effectively to these demands

and expand our internal organization, systems, controls and facilities to accommodate additional anticipated growth. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our business could be harmed and our ability to execute our business strategy could suffer.

We may acquire businesses or assets, form joint ventures or make investments in other companies that may be unsuccessful, divert our management’s attention and harm our operating results and prospects.

As part of our business strategy, we may pursue additional acquisitions of what we believe to be complementary businesses or assets or seek to enter into joint ventures. We also may pursue strategic alliances in an effort to leverage our existing infrastructure and industry experience to expand our product offerings or distribution, or make investments in other companies. For example, in June 2016, we completed the acquisition of the European operations of ARIAD. The success of our acquisitions, joint ventures, strategic alliances and investments will depend on our ability to identify, negotiate, complete and, in the case of acquisitions, integrate those transactions and, if necessary, obtain satisfactory debt or equity financing to fund those transactions. We may not realize the anticipated benefits of any acquisition, joint venture, strategic alliance or investment. We may not be able to integrate acquisitions successfully into our existing business, achieve planned synergies or cost savings, maintain the key business relationships of businesses we acquire, or retain key personnel of an acquired business, and we could assume unknown or contingent liabilities or incur unanticipated expenses. Integration of acquired companies or businesses also may require management resources that otherwise would be available for ongoing development of our existing business. Any acquisitions or investments made by us also could result in significant write-offs or the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities, any of which could harm our operating results. For example, as recently as the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded unrealized losses related to all of our investments in our collaboration partners, and we may in the future experience additional losses related to our investments. In addition, if we choose to issue shares of our stock as consideration for any acquisition, dilution to our stockholders could result.

Risks associated with the expansion of our operations outside of the United States could adversely affect our business.

Our acquisition of ARIAD’s European operations significantly expanded our operations in Europe, and we plan to continue to expand our operations and conduct certain development activities outside of the United States. For example, as part of our plans to expand our activities outside of the United States, we now conduct some of our drug development activities in Japan and are in the process of opening an office in China. International operations and business expansion plans are subject to numerous additional risks, including:

●

multiple, conflicting and changing laws and regulations such as tax laws, privacy regulations, tariffs, export and import restrictions, employment, immigration and labor laws, regulatory requirements, and other governmental approvals, permits and licenses, compliance with which can increase in complexity as we enter into additional jurisdictions;

●

difficulties in staffing and managing operations in diverse countries and difficulties in connection with assimilating and integrating any operations and personnel we might acquire into our company;

●

risks associated with obtaining and maintaining, or the failure to obtain or maintain, regulatory approvals for the sale or use of our products in various countries;

●

complexities associated with managing government payor systems, multiple payor-reimbursement regimes or patient self-pay systems;

●

financial risks, such as longer payment cycles, difficulty obtaining financing in foreign markets, difficulty enforcing contracts and intellectual property rights, difficulty collecting accounts receivable and exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;

●

general political and economic conditions in the countries in which we operate, including terrorism and political unrest, curtailment of trade and other business restrictions, and uncertainties associated with the future relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union;

Table of Contents

●

public health risks, such as the spread globally of COVID-19 in 2020, and related effects on supply chain, travel and employee health and availability; and

●

regulatory and compliance risks that relate to maintaining accurate information and control over activities that may fall within the purview of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, its books and records provisions or its anti-bribery provisions, or similar anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws and regulations in other countries, such as the U.K. Anti-Bribery Act and the U.K. Criminal Finances Act, which may have similarly broad extraterritorial reach.

Any of the risks described above, if encountered, could significantly increase our costs of operating internationally, prevent us from operating in certain jurisdictions, or otherwise significantly harm our future international expansion and operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If product liability lawsuits are brought against us, we could face substantial liabilities and may be required to limit commercialization of our products and our results of operations could be harmed.

In addition to the risks described above under “—Risks Relating to Commercialization of Our Products—If the use of our products harms patients, or is perceived to harm patients even when such harm is unrelated to our products, our regulatory approvals could be revoked or otherwise negatively impacted or we could be subject to costly and damaging product liability claims,” the conduct of clinical trials of medical products that are intended for human use entails an inherent risk of product liability. If any product that we or any of our collaborators or licensees develops causes or is alleged to cause injury during clinical trials or commercialization, we may be held liable. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantial liabilities, including substantial damages to be paid to the plaintiffs and legal costs, or we may be required to limit further development and commercialization of our products. Additionally, any product liability lawsuit could cause injury to our reputation, participants and investigators to withdraw from clinical trials, and potential collaborators or licensees to seek other partners, any of which could impact our results of operations.

Our product liability insurance policy may not fully cover our potential liabilities. In addition, we may determine that we should increase our coverage, and this insurance may be prohibitively expensive to us or our collaborators or licensees and may not fully cover our potential liabilities. Since December 30, 2017, we elected to self-insure a portion of our exposure to product liability risks through our wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary, in tandem with third-party insurance policies. Our inability to obtain sufficient product liability insurance at an acceptable cost to protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the development or commercialization of our drug candidates and products, and if our liabilities from any such claims exceed our third-party insurance limits and self-insurance reserves, our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be adversely impacted.

Because our activities involve the use of hazardous materials, we may be subject to claims relating to improper handling, storage or disposal of these materials that could be time consuming and costly.

We are subject to various environmental, health and safety laws and regulations governing, among other things, the use, handling, storage and disposal of regulated substances and the health and safety of our employees. Our research and development processes involve the controlled use of hazardous and radioactive materials and biological waste resulting in the production of hazardous waste products. We cannot completely eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or discharge and any resultant injury from these materials. If any injury or contamination results from our use or the use by our collaborators or licensees of these materials, we may be sued and our liability may exceed our insurance coverage and our total assets. Further, we may be required to indemnify our collaborators or licensees against all damages and other liabilities arising out of our development activities or products produced in connection with these collaborations or licenses. Compliance with the applicable environmental and workplace laws and regulations is expensive. Future changes to environmental, health, workplace and safety laws could cause us to incur additional expense or may restrict our operations or impair our research, development and production efforts.

RISKS RELATING TO OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS

We may incur losses in the future, and we expect to continue to incur significant expenses to discover and develop drugs, which may make it difficult for us to achieve sustained profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future.

Due to historical net losses, we had an accumulated deficit of $2.2 billion as of March 31, 2020. We intend to continue to spend significant amounts on our efforts to discover and develop drugs. As a result, we may incur losses in future periods as well. Our revenues, expenses and net income (loss) may fluctuate, even significantly, due to the risks described in these “Risk Factors” and factors discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as well as the timing of charges and expenses that we may take, including those relating to transactions such as acquisitions and the entry into collaborative agreements.

We anticipate that our drug discovery and development efforts and related expenditures will increase as we focus on the studies, including preclinical tests and clinical trials prior to seeking regulatory approval, that are required before we can sell a drug product.

The development of drug products will require us to spend significant funds on research, development, testing, obtaining regulatory approvals, manufacturing and marketing. To date, we do not have any drug products that have generated significant revenues other than from sales of JAKAFI and we cannot assure you that we will generate significant revenues from the drug candidates that we license or develop, including ICLUSIG and PEMAZYRE, for several years, if ever.

We cannot be certain whether or when we will achieve sustained or increased profitability on a quarterly or annual basis because of the factors discussed above and the significant uncertainties relating to our ability to generate commercially successful drug products. Even if we are successful in obtaining regulatory approvals for manufacturing and commercializing drug products in addition to JAKAFI, ICLUSIG and PEMAZYRE, we may incur losses if our drug products do not generate significant revenues.

We may need additional capital in the future. If we are unable to generate sufficient funds from operations, the capital markets may not permit us to raise additional capital at the time that we require it, which could result in limitations on our research and development or commercialization efforts or the loss of certain of our rights in our technologies or drug candidates.

Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors and we anticipate that we may need to raise additional capital to fund our business plan and research and development efforts going-forward.

Additional factors that may affect our future funding requirements include:

●

the amount of revenues generated from our business activities;

●

any changes in the breadth of our research and development programs;

●

the results of research and development, preclinical testing and clinical trials conducted by us or our current or future collaborators or licensees, if any;

●

our exercise of any co-development options with collaborators that may require us to fund future development;

●

the acquisition of businesses, technologies, or drug candidates, or the licensing of technologies or drug candidates, if any;

●

costs for future facility requirements;

Table of Contents

●

our ability to maintain and establish new corporate relationships and research collaborations;

●

competing technological and market developments;

●

the time and costs involved in filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent and intellectual property claims;

●

the receipt of contingent licensing or milestone fees or royalties on product sales from our current or future collaborative and license arrangements, if established; and

●

the timing of regulatory approvals, if any.

If we require additional capital at a time when investment in companies such as ours, or in the marketplace generally, is limited due to the then prevailing market or other conditions, we may have to scale back our operations, eliminate one or more of our research or development programs, or attempt to obtain funds by entering into an agreement with a collaborator or licensee that would result in terms that are not favorable to us or relinquishing our rights in certain of our proprietary technologies or drug candidates. If we are unable to raise funds at the time that we desire or at any time thereafter on acceptable terms, we may not be able to continue to develop our drug candidates. The sale of equity or additional convertible debt securities in the future may be dilutive to our stockholders and may provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our holders of common stock, and debt financing arrangements may require us to pledge certain assets or enter into covenants that could restrict our operations or our ability to incur further indebtedness.

Our marketable securities and long term investments are subject to risks that could adversely affect our overall financial position.

We invest our cash in accordance with an established internal policy and customarily in instruments, money market funds, US government backed-funds and Treasury assets, which historically have been highly liquid and carried relatively low risk. In recent periods, similar types of investments and money market funds have experienced losses in value or liquidity issues that differ from their historical pattern.

Should a portion of our cash or marketable securities lose value or have their liquidity impaired, it could adversely affect our overall financial position by imperiling our ability to fund our operations and forcing us to seek additional financing sooner than we would otherwise. Such financing, if available, may not be available on commercially attractive terms.

As discussed under “Other Risks Relating to Our Business— We may acquire businesses or assets, form joint ventures or make investments in other companies that may be unsuccessful, divert our management’s attention and harm our operating results and prospects,” any investments that we may make in companies with which we have strategic alliances, such as Agenus and Merus, could result in our recognition of losses on those investments. In addition, to the extent we may seek to sell or otherwise monetize those investments, we may not be able to do so at our desired price or valuation levels, or at all, due to the limited liquidity of some or all of those investments.

Any loss in value of our long term investments could adversely affect our financial position on the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations.

Our current revenues are derived from JAKAFI and ICLUSIG product sales, JAKAVI and OLUMIANT product royalties, collaborations and from licensing our intellectual property. If we are unable to achieve milestones, develop products or renew or enter into new collaborations, our revenues may decrease, and future milestone and royalty payments may not contribute significantly to revenues for several years, and may never result in revenues.

We derived substantially all of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from JAKAFI and ICLUSIG product revenues, JAKAVI and OLUMIANT product royalties and our collaborations and licensing our intellectual property to others. We may be unable to successfully commercialize PEMAZYRE and receive significant

Table of Contents

revenues from its sales. Future revenues from research and development collaborations depend upon continuation of the collaborations, the achievement of milestones and royalties we earn from any future products developed from our research. If we are unable to successfully achieve milestones or our collaborators fail to develop successful products, we will not earn the future revenues contemplated under our collaborative agreements. For example, delays in or other limitations with respect to the approval of baricitinib in the United States for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis, or the failure to obtain such approval, as discussed under “—We depend on our collaborators and licensees for the future development and commercialization of some of our drug candidates. Conflicts may arise between our collaborators and licensees and us, or our collaborators and licensees may choose to terminate their agreements with us, which may adversely affect our business.” would affect potential future royalty and milestone and contract revenue. In addition, our revenues are subject to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations due to the global nature of our operations. To the extent that our non-U.S. source revenues represent a more significant portion of our total revenues, these fluctuations could materially affect our operating results.

RISKS RELATING TO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND LEGAL MATTERS

If we are subject to arbitration, litigation and infringement claims, they could be costly and disrupt our drug discovery and development efforts.

The technology that we use to make and develop our drug products, the technology that we incorporate in our products, and the products we are developing may be subject to claims that they infringe the patents or proprietary rights of others. The success of our drug discovery and development efforts will also depend on our ability to develop new compounds, drugs and technologies without infringing or misappropriating the proprietary rights of others. We are aware of patents and patent applications filed in certain countries claiming intellectual property relating to some of our drug discovery targets and drug candidates. While the validity of issued patents, patentability of pending patent applications and applicability of any of them to our programs are uncertain, if any of these patents are asserted against us or if we choose to license any of these patents, our ability to commercialize our products could be harmed or the potential return to us from any product that may be successfully commercialized could be diminished.

From time to time we have received, and we may in the future receive, notices from third parties offering licenses to technology or alleging patent, trademark, or copyright infringement, claims regarding trade secrets or other contract claims. Receipt of these notices could result in significant costs as a result of the diversion of the attention of management from our drug discovery and development efforts. Parties sending these notices may have brought and in the future may bring litigation against us or seek arbitration relating to contract claims.

We may be involved in future lawsuits or other legal proceedings alleging patent infringement or other intellectual property rights or contract violations. In addition, litigation or other legal proceedings may be necessary to:

●

assert claims of infringement;

●

enforce our patents or trademarks;

●

protect our trade secrets or know-how; or

●

determine the enforceability, scope and validity of the proprietary rights of others.

We may be unsuccessful in defending or pursuing these lawsuits, claims or other legal proceedings. Regardless of the outcome, litigation or other legal proceedings can be very costly and can divert management’s efforts. An adverse determination may subject us to significant liabilities or require us or our collaborators or licensees to seek licenses to other parties’ patents or proprietary rights. We or our collaborators or licensees may also be restricted or prevented from manufacturing or selling a drug or other product that we or they develop. Further, we or our future collaborators or licensees may not be able to obtain any necessary licenses on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to develop non-infringing technology or license technology on a timely basis or on reasonable terms, our business could be harmed.

Table of Contents

We may be unable to adequately protect or enforce our proprietary information, which may result in its unauthorized use, a loss of revenue under a collaboration agreement or loss of sales to generic versions of our products or otherwise reduce our ability to compete in developing and commercializing products.

Our business and competitive position depends in significant part upon our ability to protect our proprietary technology, including any drug products that we create. Despite our efforts to protect this information, unauthorized parties may attempt to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. For example, one of our collaborators may disclose proprietary information pertaining to our drug discovery efforts. In addition, while we have filed numerous patent applications with respect to ruxolitinib and our drug candidates in the United States and in foreign countries, our patent applications may fail to result in issued patents. In addition, because patent applications can take several years to issue as patents, there may be pending patent applications of others that may later issue as patents that cover some aspect of ruxolitinib and our drug candidates. Our existing patents and any future patents we may obtain may not be broad enough to protect our products or all of the potential uses of our products, or otherwise prevent others from developing competing products or technologies. In addition, our patents may be challenged and invalidated or may fail to provide us with any competitive advantages if, for example, others were first to invent or first to file a patent application for the technologies and products covered by our patents. As noted above under “—Risks Relating to Commercialization of Our Products—Competition for our products could potentially harm our business and result in a decrease in our revenue,” a potential generic drug company competitor has challenged certain patents relating to JAKAFI.

Additionally, when we do not control the prosecution, maintenance and enforcement of certain important intellectual property, such as a drug candidate in-licensed to us or subject to a collaboration with a third-party, the protection of the intellectual property rights may not be in our hands. If we do not control the intellectual property rights in-licensed to us with respect to a drug candidate and the entity that controls the intellectual property rights does not adequately protect those rights, our rights may be impaired, which may impact our ability to develop, market and commercialize the in-licensed drug candidate.

Our means of protecting our proprietary rights may not be adequate, and our competitors may:

●

independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information, products and techniques;

●

otherwise gain access to our proprietary information; or

●

design around patents issued to us or our other intellectual property.

We pursue a policy of having our employees, consultants and advisors execute proprietary information and invention agreements when they begin working for us. However, these agreements may not provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets or other proprietary information in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure. If we fail to maintain trade secret and patent protection, our potential future revenues may be decreased.

If the effective term of our patents is decreased due to changes in the United States patent laws or if we need to refile some of our patent applications, the value of our patent portfolio and the revenues we derive from it may be decreased.

The value of our patents depends, in part, on their duration. A shorter period of patent protection could lessen the value of our rights under any patents that we obtain and may decrease the revenues we derive from our patents. The United States patent laws provide a term of patent protection of 20 years from the earliest effective filing date of the patent application. Because the time from filing to issuance of biotechnology applications may be more than three years depending on the subject matter, a 20-year patent term from the filing date may result in substantially shorter patent protection.

Additionally, United States patent laws were amended in 2011 with the enactment of the America Invents Act and third parties are now able to challenge the validity of issued U.S. patents through various review proceedings; thus rendering the validity of U.S. patents more uncertain. We may be obligated to participate in review proceedings to determine the validity of our U.S. patents. We cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, the conduct of which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our efforts and resources. If we are unsuccessful in these proceedings some or all of our claims in the patents may be narrowed or invalidated and the patent protection for our

Table of Contents

products and drug candidates in the United States could be substantially shortened. Further, if all of the patents covering one of our products are invalidated, the FDA could approve requests to manufacture a generic version of that product prior to the expiration date of those patents.

Other changes in the United States patent laws or changes in the interpretation of patent laws could diminish the value of our patents or narrow the scope of our patent protection. For example, the Supreme Court of the United States resolved a split among the circuit courts of appeals regarding antitrust challenges to settlements of patent infringement lawsuits under the Hatch-Waxman Act between brand-name drug companies and generic drug companies. The Court rejected the “scope of the patent” test and ruled that settlements involving “reverse payments” from brand-name drug companies to generic drug companies should be analyzed under the rule of reason. This ruling may create uncertainty and make it more difficult to settle patent litigation if a company seeking to manufacture a generic version of one of our products challenges the patents covering that product prior to the expiration date of those patents.

International patent protection is particularly uncertain and costly, and our involvement in opposition proceedings in foreign countries may result in the expenditure of substantial sums and management resources.

Biotechnology and pharmaceutical patent law outside the United States is even more uncertain and costly than in the United States and is currently undergoing review and revision in many countries. Further, the laws of some foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as United States laws. For example, certain countries do not grant patent claims that are directed to the treatment of humans. We have participated, and may in the future participate, in opposition proceedings to determine the validity of our foreign patents or our competitors’ foreign patents, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our efforts. Successful challenges to our patent or other intellectual property rights through these proceedings could result in a loss of rights in the relevant jurisdiction and allow third parties to use our proprietary technologies without a license from us or our collaborators, which may also result in loss of future royalty payments. In addition, successful challenges may jeopardize or delay our ability to enter into new collaborations or commercialize potential products, which could harm our business and results of operations.

RISKS RELATING TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND DATA PRIVACY

Significant disruptions of information technology systems, breaches of data security, or unauthorized disclosures of sensitive data or personally identifiable information or individually identifiable health information could adversely affect our business, and could subject us to liability or reputational damage.

Our business is increasingly dependent on critical, complex, and interdependent information technology (IT) systems, including Internet-based systems, some of which are managed or hosted by third parties, to support business processes as well as internal and external communications. The size and complexity of our IT systems make us potentially vulnerable to IT system breakdowns, malicious intrusion, and computer viruses, which may result in the impairment of our ability to operate our business effectively. In addition, having a significant portion of our employees work from home due to the COVID-19 Pandemic can strain our information technology infrastructure, which may affect our ability to operate effectively, may make us more susceptible to communications disruptions, and expose us to greater cybersecurity risks.

We are continuously evaluating and, where appropriate, enhancing our IT systems to address our planned growth, including to support our planned manufacturing operations. There are inherent costs and risks associated with implementing the enhancements to our IT systems, including potential delays in access to, or errors in, critical business and financial information, substantial capital expenditures, additional administrative time and operating expenses, retention of sufficiently skilled personnel to implement and operate the enhanced systems, demands on management time, and costs of delays or difficulties in transitioning to the enhanced systems, any of which could harm our business and results of operations. In addition, the implementation of enhancements to our IT systems may not result in productivity improvements at a level that outweighs the costs of implementation, or at all. In addition, our systems and the systems of our third-party providers and collaborators are potentially vulnerable to data security breaches which may expose sensitive data to unauthorized persons or to the public. Such data security breaches could lead to the loss of confidential information, trade secrets or other intellectual property, could lead to the public exposure of personal information (including personally identifiable information or individually identifiable health information) of our employees, clinical trial patients, customers,

Table of Contents

business partners, and others, could lead to potential identity theft, or could lead to reputational harm. Data security breaches could also result in loss of clinical trial data or damage to the integrity of that data. In addition, the increased use of social media by our employees and contractors could result in inadvertent disclosure of sensitive data or personal information, including but not limited to, confidential information, trade secrets and other intellectual property.

Any such disruption or security breach, as well as any action by us or our employees or contractors that might be inconsistent with the rapidly evolving data privacy and security laws and regulations applicable within the United States and elsewhere where we conduct business, could result in enforcement actions by U.S. states, the U.S. Federal government or foreign governments, liability or sanctions under data privacy laws, including healthcare laws such as HIPAA, that protect certain types of sensitive information, regulatory penalties, other legal proceedings such as but not limited to private litigation, the incurrence of significant remediation costs, disruptions to our development programs, business operations and collaborations, diversion of management efforts and damage to our reputation, which could harm our business and operations. Because of the rapidly moving nature of technology and the increasing sophistication of cybersecurity threats, our measures to prevent, respond to and minimize such risks may be unsuccessful.

In addition, the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union has adopted a comprehensive general data privacy regulation, known as the GDPR, which governs the collection and use of personal data in the European Union. The GDPR, which is wide-ranging in scope, imposes several requirements relating to the consent of the individuals to whom the personal data relates, the information provided to the individuals, the security and confidentiality of the personal data, data breach notification and the use of third party processors in connection with the processing of the personal data. The GDPR also imposes strict rules on the transfer of personal data out of the European Union to the United States, provides an enforcement authority and imposes large penalties for noncompliance, including the potential for fines of up to €20 million or 4% of the annual global revenues of the infringer, whichever is greater. The GDPR and other similar laws or regulations enacted in the United States or other jurisdictions associated with the enhanced protection of certain types of sensitive data, including healthcare data or other personal information, may increase our costs of doing business, and the differing requirements of these laws and regulations can complicate our compliance efforts.

Increasing use of social media could give rise to liability, breaches of data security, or reputational damage.

We and our employees are increasingly utilizing social media tools as a means of communication both internally and externally. Despite our efforts to monitor evolving social media communication guidelines and comply with applicable rules, there is risk that the use of social media by us or our employees to communicate about our products or business may cause us to be found in violation of applicable requirements. In addition, our employees may knowingly or inadvertently make use of social media in ways that may not comply with our social media policy or other legal or contractual requirements, which may give rise to liability, lead to the loss of trade secrets or other intellectual property, or result in public exposure of personal information of our employees, clinical trial patients, customers, and others. Furthermore, negative posts or comments about us or our products in social media could seriously damage our reputation, brand image, and goodwill.

2.3 Acknowledgements and Obligations of COMPANY regarding Sublicense.

COMPANY acknowledges and agrees that MorphoSys will notify Xencor promptly after the Execution Date of the sublicenses granted to COMPANY in Section 2.1 and that MorphoSys will provide Xencor with a copy of this Agreement for the sole purpose of enabling Xencor to verify whether this Agreement is in accordance with the Xencor Agreement. The copy of this Agreement that MorphoSys will provide to Xencor will be redacted by MorphoSys with respect to development and commercial plans, and with respect to financial information. COMPANY acknowledges that under the Xencor Agreement, Xencor shall ensure that no information of such copy is disclosed to Xencor personnel other than Xencor officers, or to any Third Party

CONFIDENTIAL

other than counsel to Xencor, except solely to the extent required by applicable Laws or to assert Xencor’s rights under the Xencor Agreement (with any further redactions MorphoSys requests that are consistent with the legal requirement, or sufficient for Xencor to assert Xencor’s rights under the Xencor Agreement, meaning, that – with respect to the latter – MorphoSys shall not expand such redactions in a way that limits Xencor’s ability to assert its rights under the Xencor Agreement).

2.4 License Grant from COMPANY. As consideration for all the rights granted by MorphoSys to COMPANY hereunder, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, COMPANY hereby grants to MorphoSys:

(a) A co-exclusive (together with COMPANY), royalty-free, sublicensable (through one (1) or more tiers) license under the COMPANY Foreground Patents and the COMPANY Know-How and COMPANY's interest in any Joint Foreground Patents to research, have researched, Develop, have Developed, make, have made, use, have used, sell, have sold, offer for sale, have offered for sale, Commercialize, have Commercialized, import, have imported, export and have exported the Licensed Antibody and/or the Product(s) in the Field in the Co-Commercialization Territory;

(b) a non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable (through one (1) or more tiers) license under the COMPANY Foreground Patents and the COMPANY Know-How and COMPANY's interest in any Joint Foreground Patents, to perform Development Activities worldwide, solely in accordance with the Development Plan, including MorphoSys Funded Development Activities;

(c) a non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable (through one (1) or more tiers) license under any COMPANY Foreground Patents that contain only claims that recite the sequence or make reference to the sequence of the CDRs or variable regions, or portions thereof (whether or not also providing for homology to such sequences), of Licensed Antibody and/or XmAb5871 and/or any and all Indications or applications thereof to research, have researched, Develop, have Developed, make, have made, use, have used, sell, have sold, offer for sale, have offered for sale, Commercialize, have Commercialized, import, have imported, export and have exported XmAb5871 Program Antibodies worldwide for any and all fields and applications; and

(d) an option for MorphoSys, [***] after a Marketing Authorization has been obtained by COMPANY for the EU and after launch of Product in Germany, to co-Detail the Product(s) in Germany in accordance with a Germany co-Detailing agreement with customary compliance and other provisions to govern any co-Detailing in Germany (the “Germany Co-Detailing Agreement”). Such option shall be exercisable by written notice by MorphoSys to COMPANY. Within [***] Business Days after COMPANY’s receipt of such written notice by MorphoSys, COMPANY shall enable MorphoSys’ co-Detailing efforts by providing access to all necessary information, documentation and support required. Within [***] months after receipt of such information, documentation and support, the Parties shall enter into the Germany Co-Detailing Agreement, which shall include a co-Detailing plan that would be consistent with COMPANY’s Commercialization Plan and strategy in the COMPANY Territory that allows MorphoSys to provide up to fifty percent (50%) of the FTEs of the Sales Representatives in Germany [***] months after agreement of such plan and as set forth in such plan, or within a timeframe otherwise mutually agreed between the Parties, the costs for MorphoSys’ co-Detailing activities to be fully borne by COMPANY, details to

CONFIDENTIAL

be set forth in the Germany Co-Detailing Agreement, including the FTE rate. To the extent MorphoSys’ co-Detailing costs are partly directly attributable to co-Detailing activities and partly attributable to other activities of MorphoSys (in particular Commercialization activities for products controlled by MorphoSys that are not Licensed Antibody or Product), such costs shall constitute co-Detailing costs on a pro rata basis, which calculation shall be agreed between the Parties in good faith.

2.5 Sublicenses by COMPANY. COMPANY shall be entitled to grant sublicenses under its licenses and sublicenses granted under Section 2.1, subject to all of the following and to any rights retained by MorphoSys under this Agreement:

(a) Notification/Approval of MorphoSys. With respect to the COMPANY Territory, COMPANY shall have the right to grant sublicenses without MorphoSys' prior approval, provided, however, that COMPANY shall promptly notify MorphoSys after granting a sublicense to any Third Party other than an Affiliate and shall provide MorphoSys with a copy of each such Sublicense Agreement with a Third Party within [***] calendar days for the sole purpose of verifying whether the Sublicense Agreement is in accordance with this Agreement. Such copy may be redacted as COMPANY may reasonably determine with respect to sensitive financial information and confidential information solely relating to matters or products other than Products or Licensed Antibody. MorphoSys shall ensure that no information of such copy is disclosed to any Third Party other than a counsel of MorphoSys, except solely to the extent required by applicable Laws (provided that MorphoSys shall provide COMPANY with notice sufficient to allow COMPANY to seek a protective order, and that MorphoSys shall only disclose such portion of such Sublicense Agreement as required) or to assert MorphoSys’ rights under this Agreement (with any further redactions COMPANY requests that are consistent with the legal requirement, or sufficient for MorphoSys to assert MorphoSys’ rights under this Agreement, meaning, that – with respect to the latter – COMPANY shall not expand such redactions in a way that limits MorphoSys’ ability to assert its rights hereunder). The preceding sentence does not limit the right of MorphoSys to notify Xencor of sublicenses granted by COMPANY and to provide Xencor with a copy of such Sublicense Agreement in accordance with Section 2.3 and Section 2.5(b), redacted as provided above. With respect to the Co-Commercialization Territory, any grant of a sublicense shall require the prior written approval of MorphoSys. For clarity, Sublicense Agreements of COMPANY with its Affiliates shall be consistent with this Agreement.

(b) Consistency Requirement. COMPANY and its Sublicensees may only sublicense or further sublicense if the sublicense or further Sublicense Agreement is on terms consistent with this Agreement, including this Section 2.5. Further, COMPANY shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain from each Sublicensee obligations in the Sublicense Agreement for the Sublicensee to comply with Section 17.7 as if the Sublicensee were COMPANY, on the same or better terms as provided for in Section 17.7 (or to avoid doubt, obligations in the Sublicense Agreement for the Sublicensee to provide the rights of Section 17.7 to COMPANY in case the Sublicense Agreement terminates, and for these to be passed on by COMPANY to MorphoSys, or if so requested, to Xencor in case this Agreement also terminates). In any event, COMPANY shall provide in each Sublicense Agreement that whatever rights (if any) and terms with respect to the subject matter of Section 17.7 are granted to COMPANY in case such Sublicense terminates shall be passed on to

CONFIDENTIAL

MorphoSys, or where provided under the Xencor Agreement and if so requested, to Xencor if this Agreement also terminates. Also in any event, COMPANY shall in each Sublicense Agreement obtain at a minimum the following: the co-Detailing option and the license to MorphoSys under COMPANY Foreground Patents as set forth under Section 2.4, including to the extent granted under those certain COMPANY Foreground Patents of the Sublicensee, shall survive in case the Sublicense Agreement terminates. In case the Sublicense Agreement terminates, there shall be a non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, sublicensable (through one (1) or more tiers without consent) license back to COMPANY under those certain COMPANY Foreground Patents as set forth under Section 2.4(b) to research, have researched, make, have made, use, have used, sell, have sold, offer for sale, have offered for sale, Commercialize, have Commercialized, import, have imported, export and have exported Licensed Antibody and/or Products; which license shall be passed on to MorphoSys or, if so requested by MorphoSys, to Xencor if this Agreement also terminates.

(c) Performance by Sublicensee(s). The activities and achievements of any Sublicensee(s) shall be counted towards each Party's performance under this Agreement.

2.6 Registration of Licenses. Each Party and each Party's Sublicensees shall have the right to register – to the extent possible under the respectively applicable Laws – the licenses granted under Sections 2.1 and 2.4 and sublicenses granted under such licenses in the respectively relevant registers. Upon the other Party's or the other Party's Sublicensee's request each Party shall provide to the other Party or the other Party's Sublicensee and execute all documents and instruments that may be required to perfect such registration of a license.

2.7 Reservation of Rights; No Implied Licenses. No right, title or interest is granted by either Party whether expressly or by implication to or under any Patents or Know-How, other than those rights and licenses expressly granted in this Agreement. Each Party reserves to itself all rights not expressly granted under this Agreement. Subject to the covenants agreed by the Parties hereunder this Agreement shall not be deemed to restrict a Party from exploiting any of its rights not expressly granted to the other Party under this Agreement.

2.8 Use of Patents and Know-How. Each Party hereby covenants that it (and its Affiliates and Sublicensees) shall not practice any Patents or Know-How (to avoid doubt, including any and all research materials provided during the Development Activities) licensed to the other Party under this Agreement, outside the scope of the licenses granted to the other Party under this Agreement.

2.9 Coordination of Sublicenses and Rights of Other Licensees With This Agreement. COMPANY shall ensure that its agreements with Sublicensees and further Sublicensees are consistent with and impose obligations consistent with the applicable terms and conditions regarding Sublicensees set forth in this Agreement, including Sections 2.5, 2.8, 2.9, 2.10, 3.8, 3.15, 4.9, 8.3(d) to (g), and 14.2 (the Sublicensee shall make an equivalent indemnification of the MorphoSys Indemnitees), and 17.3. Subject to Section 2.5(b), COMPANY shall in particular require its Sublicensees to provide to COMPANY ownership of or a non-exclusive, sublicenseable (through one (1) or more tiers) license under Sublicensee’s Product Invention Patents that contain only claims that recite the sequence or make reference to the sequence of the CDRs or variable regions, or portions thereof (whether or not also

CONFIDENTIAL

providing for homology to such sequences) of Licensed Antibody and/or XmAb5871 and/or any and all indications or applications thereof, which license as sublicensed to COMPANY shall be free of additional payments (including royalties). Information provided by a Sublicensee (or of a Sublicensee provided by COMPANY) to MorphoSys under this Section 2.9 shall be treated as Confidential Information of COMPANY.

2.10 Additional Restrictions on Sublicensing. Notwithstanding each Party’s sublicensing rights in this Article 2, neither Party shall be permitted to sublicense, except to Affiliates, (i) any of the Development Activities allocated to it under the Development Plan (other than any activities that are primarily operational in nature) related to a COMPANY Trial, MorphoSys Trial or Global Trial, and (ii) any Co-Commercialization rights in the Co-Commercialization Territory; both (i) and (ii) without the other Party’s prior written consent.

2.11 Liability for Sublicensees. COMPANY shall monitor compliance with and enforce any Sublicense Agreements against its Sublicensees, and shall be jointly and severally liable for the operations, acts and omissions of any Sublicensee as if such operations, acts or omissions were carried out by COMPANY itself.

3. TRANSFER AND DEVELOPMENT OF PRODUCTS

3.1 Transfer of Licensed Know How. Within [***] Business Days after the Effective Date, MorphoSys shall provide COMPANY with electronic copies of the information contained in the Data Room regarding relevant MorphoSys Know-How and Xencor Know-How (the “Initial Know-How Transfer”). Thereafter, during the Term, to the extent there exists Xencor Know-How or MorphoSys Know-How that was not included in the Initial Know-How Transfer, and that is necessary or useful for COMPANY to conduct the Development, Manufacture and Commercialization activities under this Agreement, MorphoSys shall make available to COMPANY within reasonable time such additional Xencor Know-How or MorphoSys Know-How, including the MorphoSys Know-How and Xencor Know-How as set forth in EXHIBIT 4A and EXHIBIT 4B, as COMPANY shall reasonably request in writing.

3.2 Overview of Development; General Responsibilities. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Parties shall collaborate with respect to the Development of the Licensed Antibody and the Product in the Field, as provided under this Agreement and as set forth in the Development Plan, provided however, that MorphoSys shall be the Sponsor of [***], in both the Co-Commercialization Territory and the COMPANY Territory, and COMPANY shall be the Sponsor of [***] all as set forth in Section 3.6 and Section 3.7 below and in the Development Plan.

3.3 Development Plan. The Parties shall conduct the Development Activities in accordance with the Development Plan and as further specified in this Agreement. The Development Plan shall set forth, among other things, the following Development Activities:

(a) preclinical studies, toxicology studies, pharmaco-economic studies and Trials evaluating the safety and/or efficacy including Phase 1 Trials, Phase 2 Trials, Phase 3 Trials, Pivotal Trials, in each case, together with all protocols, endpoints and investigators conducting such trials;

(b) Non-NDA Studies and Post-Marketing Authorization Trials and studies;

CONFIDENTIAL

(d) the Joint Development Budget and the qualification of each Development Activity as a Joint Development Activity, a Manufacturing Development Activity, a MorphoSys Funded Development Activity or a COMPANY Funded Development Activity (and within this qualification whether such COMPANY Funded Development Activity is a COMPANY Discretionary Manufacturing Activity);

(e) the allocation of the Joint Development Activities to be conducted by each Party and the timeline for completing such Joint Development Activities;

(f) the plans and timeline for preparing the necessary Regulatory Materials/Pricing Materials and for obtaining and/or maintaining Regulatory Approvals/Pricing Approvals in the Territories;

(g) the Manufacturing Development Activities and other Manufacturing process development activities (including CMC related activities), as well as the plans, amounts and timelines for the Manufacture and supply of Product, Placebo, combination and comparator products necessary for the Development, taking into account the respective supply chain timelines and inventory of stock; and

(h) the number of FTEs required for the performance of the Development Plan.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Development Plan shall include also Trials and regulatory plans of the Parties with respect to Sole Funded Development Activities and shall not be limited to the Co-Commercialization Territory. The Initial Development Plan attached hereto as EXHIBIT 6 shall be updated in accordance with this Section 3.3 within [***] days of the Effective Date.

3.4 Updating and Amending Development Plan and Joint Development Budget. On or before [***] during the Term, the JDC shall submit to the JSC for approval the Development Plan (including the Joint Development Budget contained therein), which shall cover the Development Activities to be conducted during the upcoming [***] calendar years, including amendments to ongoing Development Activities, and the JDC shall, every [***] months, review, amend and update, as appropriate, the then-current Development Plan (including the Joint Development Budget) to reflect any changes, any current or forecast budget overruns, reprioritizations of, or additions to the Development Plan, always taking into account the Manufacturing capacities and commitments, and other Third Party-dependant factors. Once reviewed by the JDC pursuant to Section 9.5(c) and approved by the JSC (or otherwise decided upon pursuant to Sections 9.2(e) or 9.3), the amended Development Plan (including the Joint Development Budget contained therein) shall become effective and supersede the previous Development Plan and Joint Development Budget as of the date of such approval or at such other time as decided by the JSC (or otherwise decided upon pursuant to Section 9.2(e) or Section 9.3).

3.5 New Development Activities. From time to time during the Term, in accordance with the timelines set forth in Section 3.4, either Party may submit to the JDC an expansion of the Development Plan to cover new Development Activities (including proposals to make any Non-NDA Study a Joint Development Activity) that are not amending ongoing Joint Development Activity (e.g. a new Trial) and that are not yet included in the Development Plan with respect to the Product in the Territory in the Field for the JDC’s review and referral for decision to the

CONFIDENTIAL

JSC. The proposing Party shall provide a detailed proposal for such new Development Activity, including plans for design, budget, timelines, territorial scope, supply plan for Product (and Placebo, combination or comparator product, where applicable), proposed operational responsibilities of the Parties, technical feasibility, implications for future technical development in CMC and a rationale for conducting such Development activity either as Joint Development Activity or Sole Funded Development Activity, if applicable. Once reviewed by the JDC pursuant to Section 9.5(c) and approved by the JSC either as Joint Development Activity or as Sole Funded Development Activity, the updated Development Plan (including the Joint Development Budget contained therein) shall become effective and supersede the previous Development Plan and Joint Development Budget as of the date of such approval, always taking into account the Manufacturing capacities and commitments, and other Third Party-dependant factors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall at any time be forced into any new “Joint Development Activity” that is not just amending an ongoing Joint Development Activity (e.g. a new Trial), i.e. if a Party rejects a submitted new Development activity as a Joint Development Activity, such new Development activity may only become a Sole Funded Development Activity, which shall then be subject to the “buy-in” option set forth in Section 7.6(b). For the avoidance of doubt, any Trial described in this Section 3.5 that is solely designed or required to obtain and maintain Regulatory Approval in a jurisdiction of the COMPANY Territory shall always be regarded as COMPANY Funded Development Activity, and Development Data resulting from such Trial shall be used as set forth in Section 3.10(d).

If a Party (the “Proposing Party”) submits to the JDC a proposed update to the Development Plan pursuant to this Section 3.5 to conduct a Trial that may support further Development or Regulatory Approval of a Product as a monotherapy or combination therapy in the COMPANY Territory and/or the Co-Commercialization Territory, and the JDC does not approve such proposed update as a Joint Development Activity within [***] days of presentation of such update to the JDC pursuant to this Section 3.5, then the Proposing Party shall have the right to conduct, fund and support the relevant proposed Trial as an Independent Trial, at its discretion and at its sole expense, and such study shall not be added to the Development Plan as a Joint Development Activity but as a Sole Funded Development Activity, subject to the following terms:

At least [***] months prior to commencing the Sole Funded Development Activity, the Proposing Party shall submit to the other Party via the JDC a detailed protocol and timeline (the “Sole Funded Development Activity Plan”) and initial budget that outlines the anticipated Development Costs (the “Sole Funded Development Activity Budget”). The Proposing Party shall reasonably consider the comments provided by the non-Proposing Party’s JDC representative with respect to such activities, including with respect to the design and conduct of applicable Trials and any safety or dosing concerns raised by the non-Proposing Party. If the non-Proposing Party reasonably believes that there are reasons stipulated in Section 9.2(e)(iv) or (v), and notifies this to the Proposing Party at least [***] months after the Proposing Party's submission of the detailed protocol and timeline, the Parties will refer the decision making to the JSC which will then be made pursuant to Section 9.2(e) or Section 9.3.

3.6 Specific MorphoSys Obligations regarding [***] and Development Activities. MorphoSys shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to continue to fulfil its responsibilities and conduct the Development Activities as Sponsor for [***], in accordance with applicable Laws, GCP and the Development Plan. Such conduct shall be made in close cooperation with COMPANY to the extent permitted by applicable Laws. In cases where the Parties may not

CONFIDENTIAL

reach an agreement on any activities which are directly linked to MorphoSys’ responsibilities as a Sponsor of MorphoSys Trials as outlined in the Development Plan and applicable Laws, MorphoSys shall retain the right to act according to its own decision, provided that MorphoSys shall undertake all necessary efforts to take COMPANY’s view into account, as far as legally feasible and subject to the final decision making authority provisions as set forth in Section 9.2(e). Without limiting the foregoing, MorphoSys shall [***] in accordance with the protocol and the timelines outlined in the Development Plan.

In addition to the obligations under Section 9.4 (Development Project Team) and Section 9.5 (Joint Development Committee), MorphoSys shall inform COMPANY regarding the status of [***], and MorphoSys’ Development Activities and other relevant on-going pre-clinical activities through progress reports submitted to the JDC meetings and once yearly in writing. Such reports shall include copies of any preliminary reports and final reports and other information or data reasonably requested by COMPANY if available at the time. MorphoSys' conduct of [***], shall be regarded as Joint Development Activities and is subject to the cost sharing under Section 7.1. During the conduct of [***], MorphoSys shall provide COMPANY with reasonable advance notice and a copy of briefing material and application dossiers of any meeting or substantive telephone conference with any Regulatory Authority relating to [***], and shall, upon COMPANY’s request, permit COMPANY to participate in any such meeting or telephone conference, to the extent legally permitted. In addition, MorphoSys shall (i) furnish to COMPANY copies of all substantive correspondence that MorphoSys receives from any Regulatory Authority in connection with [***], (ii) coordinate with COMPANY any substantive communication submitted to any Regulatory Authority in connection with the [***], and (iii) provide to COMPANY reasonably detailed minutes of any meetings or substantive telephone conferences relating to [***]. Notwithstanding the above, MorphoSys shall not be required to share with COMPANY any information which MorphoSys is not permitted to share under applicable Laws.

3.7 Specific COMPANY Obligations regarding [***] and Development Activities. COMPANY shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to fulfil its responsibilities and conduct the Development Activities as Sponsor for [***] in accordance with applicable Laws, GCP and the Development Plan. Such conduct shall be made in close cooperation with MorphoSys to the extent permitted by applicable Laws. In cases where the Parties may not reach an agreement on any activities which are directly linked to COMPANY’s responsibilities as a Sponsor of such Trial as outlined in the Development Plan and applicable Laws, COMPANY shall retain the right to act according to its own decision, provided that COMPANY shall undertake all necessary efforts to take MorphoSys’ view into account, as far as legally feasible and subject to the final decision making authority provisions as set forth in Section 9.2(e). For clarity, for each MorphoSys Trial, MorphoSys shall have the deciding vote for the Trial design and for COMPANY Trial, COMPANY shall have the deciding vote for the Trial design.

In addition to the obligations under Section 9.4 (Development Project Team) and Section 9.5 (Joint Development Committee), COMPANY shall inform MorphoSys regarding the status of [***] and COMPANY’s Development Activities through progress reports submitted to the JDC meetings and once yearly in writing. Such reports shall include copies of any preliminary reports and final reports and other information or data reasonably requested by MorphoSys if available at the time. COMPANY’s conduct of [***] shall be regarded as Joint Development Activities and is subject to the cost sharing under Section 7.1. During the conduct of [***], COMPANY shall provide MorphoSys with reasonable advance notice and a copy of briefing material and application dossiers of any meeting or substantive telephone conference with

CONFIDENTIAL

any Regulatory Authority relating to [***], and shall, upon MorphoSys’ request, permit MorphoSys to participate in any such meeting or telephone conference, to the extent legally permitted. In addition, COMPANY shall (i) furnish to MorphoSys copies of all substantive correspondence that COMPANY receives from any Regulatory Authority in connection with [***], (ii) coordinate with MorphoSys any substantive communication submitted to any Regulatory Authority in connection with [***], and (iii) provide to MorphoSys reasonably detailed minutes of any meetings or substantive telephone conferences relating to [***]. Notwithstanding the above, COMPANY shall not be required to share with MorphoSys any information which COMPANY is not permitted to share under applicable Laws.

3.8 Diligence. Each Party shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts (i) to Develop the Licensed Antibody and the Product(s) and to obtain and maintain Regulatory Approval for one (1) or more therapeutic, prophylactic or palliative Products in the Field in their respective Territory (i.e. MorphoSys in the Co-Commercialization Territory and COMPANY in the COMPANY Territory and the Co-Commercialization Territory), (ii) to collaborate with respect to the Development of the Licensed Antibody and the Product(s) in the Field in the Territory, and (iii) carry out the Joint Development Activities assigned to it under the Development Plan and in accordance with the Joint Development Budget and time frames set forth in the Development Plan. The Parties shall conduct the Development based on their respective experience, capabilities and capacity and as agreed to in the Development Plan; each Party shall utilize adequately skilled personnel to perform or oversee, as applicable, the Development and Manufacturing of the Product, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Neither Party shall be relieved of its diligence obligations under this Agreement by entering into Sublicense Agreements. The activities and achievements of any Sublicensee(s) shall be counted towards each Party's performance under this Agreement.

3.9 Specific COMPANY Obligations. Without limiting COMPANY's obligations in Section 3.8 above, COMPANY shall in any case:

(a) use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to achieve the milestone events as set out in Section 8.2 for Indications in the Joint Development Plan;

(b) use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to develop, at least one (1) therapeutic, prophylactic or palliative Product in [***];

(c) file an IND in [***] and perform a Trial in [***] with the intent to seek Regulatory Approval in [***]; both in a reasonable timeline;

(d) where available and commercially reasonable [***], conduct an Early Access Program for the Product in [***] in advance of the first Marketing Authorization of the Product in [***]; and

(e) conduct Trials in accordance with all applicable Laws.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that any breach of this Section 3.9 by COMPANY may constitute a Material Breach of this Agreement giving rise to the termination right set forth in Section 17.2(a).

3.10 Development Data. All Development Data shall be owned and shared by the Parties as set forth in this Section 3.10:

CONFIDENTIAL

(a) Joint Development Data shall be jointly owned by both Parties and shall be regarded as COMPANY Know-How and MorphoSys Know-How for all purposes under this Agreement and shall be regarded as the Confidential Information of both Parties. With respect to the data relating to a Party’s proprietary molecule not otherwise subject to the licenses under this Agreement but included in Joint Development Data, the other Party may use such data solely in connection with the Development and Commercialization of the Product, and such data related to the proprietary molecule shall be considered the Confidential Information of the Party which owns such molecule.

(b) Sole Funded Development Data shall be owned solely and exclusively by the Party generating such data, which shall be Confidential Information of such Party.

(c) With respect to Joint Development Data generated by or on behalf of a Party, its Affiliates or Sublicensees or sublicensees, as applicable, such Party shall promptly provide the other Party with copies of reports and summaries thereof, in each case as such reports and summaries become available to such Party, its Affiliates or Sublicensees or sublicensees.

By way of example, MorphoSys/COMPANY may provide [***]/[***]% of the Sales Representatives, [***]/[***]% of the market access FTEs and [***]/[***]% of the medical scientific liaison FTEs out of the 100% of FTEs determined to be required for each commercial function as set forth in the Co-Commercialization Plan.

In allocating responsibilities between the Parties, the JCC (or the JSC, or the Executive Officers, or the Expert, if applicable) shall take into consideration each Party’s expertise, capabilities, staffing and available resources to take on such activities, as well as the Parties’ intention to provide MorphoSys an opportunity to build and expand its expertise, capabilities, staffing and available resources in connection with performing Commercialization activities allocated to it.

(iii) To the extent efforts or costs for the Co-Commercialization activities cannot be attributed solely to the Co-Commercialization of the Product(s) hereunder but are incurred partly also for activities related to product(s) that are not the Product, then such efforts and costs shall only be taken into account on a pro rata basis, which shall be agreed between the Parties in good faith.

(c) Lead Parties. In collaboration with COMPANY, MorphoSys shall lead the strategic aspects of the Parties’ Commercialization of the Product in the Field in the Co-Commercialization Territory, as set forth in Section 5.3 and shall lead the overall strategic Product positioning, branding, core messaging, and overall medical congress strategy and global medical education strategy with respect to global Commercialization in the Territory.

The Party incurring such Joint Development Costs shall provide to the other Party a true, accurate and complete report of the [***] exchange rate used in the calculation. All payments will be made without deduction of exchange, collection or other charges.

7.5 Development and Commercial FTE Costs. With respect to Development or Commercial-related FTE costs, which a Party is obligated to bear and then submit to the other Party for sharing or reimbursement, as the case may be, each Party shall calculate its costs using the relevant FTE Rate as set forth in Section 1.29 and Section 1.58, respectively.

7.6 Sole Funded Development Activities and Data Buy-In Mechanism.

CONFIDENTIAL

(a) Responsibility for Sole Funded Development Activities. Subject to Section 3.5, each Party shall be fully responsible for its Sole Funded Development Activities.

(b) Sole Funded Development Data Buy-In Option. Either Party (such Party, the “Buy-In Party”) shall have the right to use the other Party’s Sole Funded Development Data the same way it may use Joint Development Data under this Agreement (including, for clarity, Sole Funded Development Data resulting from Non-NDA Studies that are Independent Trials), subject to the payment of (i) a buy-in fee constituting [***] incurred as of delivery of the buy-in notice (including internal and Out-of-Pocket Costs) for such Development activities that it would have otherwise been required to pay in accordance with the Pro Rata Percentage if such Development activities had been Joint Development Activities and (ii) its Pro Rata Percentage of Development Costs that are incurred after delivery of the buy-in notice whereby, with effect as of delivery of the buy-in notice, (A) such Development Costs shall be considered part of Joint Development Costs, (B) the respective Development activity shall be considered part of the Joint Development Plan, and (C) budget overruns shall be considered Budget overruns as governed by Section 7.3. Such buy-in payment shall entitle the Buy-In Party to use only the Development Data of the Sole Funded Development Activity that the Buy-In Party elected to participate in and so paid for.

For each Regulatory Approval referred to in this table, “Approval” shall mean a final or a conditional approval or approval on exceptional circumstances.

Each milestone payment would be payable only upon first achievement of such milestone for the first Product and no amounts would be due for subsequent or repeated achievements of the same milestone by another Product.

If any milestone event occurs without one of the preceding milestone events occurring in such country, the milestone payment to be made in such country with respect to the preceding milestone event would be paid at the same time as the payment for the

CONFIDENTIAL

subsequent milestone event. For example, if there is a filing of the first MAA in the 1st Autoimmune Indication, any Phase 1, Phase 2, or Phase 3 Trial milestones for such 1st Autoimmune Indication, if not previously paid, shall be paid at the time of such first MAA filing.*COMPANY would pay [***] percent ([***]%), [***] percent ([***]%) and [***] percent ([***]%) of each European approval milestone upon achievement of Pricing Approval in each of the [***], respectively.

**COMPANY would only pay these autoimmune milestones listed above if they are triggered based on a Trial that is a COMPANY Funded Development Activity.

***COMPANY would only pay these autoimmune milestones listed above if they are triggered based on a Trial that is a Joint Development Activity, in both cases excluding any non-NDA Studies.

For all purposes under this Section, whether an Indication is “1st”, “2nd”, “3rd” or “4th” (if applicable) for any given milestone event will be determined not based on which Indication started first in development, but on which indication first achieves the milestone event.

(b) Sales Milestones. COMPANY shall notify MorphoSys upon achievement of any milestone event as set forth below and, within [***] calendar days of the first (1st) occurrence of any of the following milestone events, COMPANY shall make the following one-time, non-creditable, non-refundable payments to MorphoSys based on Net Sales in any calendar year in the COMPANY Territory (across all Products and all indications) in accordance with the invoicing process outlined in Section 8.5:

Milestone event (in US dollars)	Payment (in US dollars)
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]
Total Sales Milestones	315 million

For the avoidance of doubt, if more than one of the above Net Sales thresholds are achieved for the first time in the same calendar year, all such achieved milestone payments that were not previously paid will become due at such time.

(c) Disputes on whether a development milestone event or a sales milestone event has occurred shall be settled according to Section 18.3(b).

8.3 Royalties from COMPANY.

CONFIDENTIAL

(a) Royalties for Products in the European Region and Japan. In further consideration of the licenses granted by MorphoSys to COMPANY, COMPANY shall pay to MorphoSys tiered royalties on incremental annual Net Sales of Products in the European Region and Japan:

Net Sales of Products in European Region and Japan in any calendar year (in US dollars)	Royalty Rate
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]
[***]	[***]

The royalty rates under this Section are incremental with respect to the annual Net Sales of Products. As an example, if Products achieve in any given calendar year [***] US dollar (USD [***]) in Net Sales in the COMPANY Territory, then a [***] percent ([***]%) royalty shall be paid on the first [***] dollars (USD [***]), a [***] percent ([***]%) royalty shall be paid on the next [***] dollars (USD [***]), and a [***] percent ([***]%) royalty shall be paid on the remaining [***] dollars (USD [***]).

(b) Net Sales of Products in ROW Territory. In further consideration of the licenses granted by MorphoSys to COMPANY, COMPANY shall pay to MorphoSys a royalty of [***] percent ([***]%) of Net Sales of Products in the ROW Territory.

(c) Royalty Term. The royalties under Section 8.3 shall be paid by COMPANY to MorphoSys during the Royalty Term. "Royalty Term" means the time from [***] of a Product in a given country in the COMPANY Territory on a country-by-country and Product-by-Product basis and until the last to occur of: (i) the expiration of the last Valid Claim Covering such Product within the Xencor Background Patents, MorphoSys Background Patents, Joint Foreground Patents and MorphoSys Foreground Patents in such country, (ii) [***] years after the first post-Marketing Authorization sale of such Product in such country and (iii) expiration of the regulatory exclusivity for such Product in such country. The royalties payable with respect to Net Sales of Products shall be reduced by [***] percent ([***]%) of the otherwise applicable rates, with respect to Net Sales of a Product in a country during any portion of the Royalty Term to the extent there is no such Valid Claim in such country; provided, however, that, subject to Section 8.10, the royalty payments due in any calendar quarter during the Royalty Term shall in no case amount to less than [***] percent ([***]%) of Net Sales of Products in the COMPANY Territory. COMPANY has selected this royalty scheme from among other choices available to COMPANY as the most appropriate and convenient

CONFIDENTIAL

(c) Each of COMPANY’s Third Party Sublicensees with respect to any affected Products in any affected country at such time shall continue to have the rights and license set forth in their Sublicense Agreements, subject to the continued performance of their obligations thereunder; provided, however, that such Third Party Sublicensee agrees in writing that the Sublicense Agreements be transferred from COMPANY to MorphoSys so that MorphoSys is entitled to enforce all relevant terms and conditions of such Sublicense Agreement directly against such Third Party Sublicensee, except that MorphoSys shall not be bound to perform any duties or obligations set forth in any Sublicense Agreements that extend beyond the duties and obligations of MorphoSys set forth in this Agreement; and further provided that such Third Party Sublicensee is not then in breach of its Sublicense Agreement.

17.8 MorphoSys’ Rights upon MorphoSys’ Termination Notice and Effects of MorphoSys’ Termination. Upon a Termination Notice by MorphoSys under Section 17.2(a) (Material Breach by COMPANY), Section 17.2(b) (Insolvency of COMPANY), or Section 17.2(c) (Patent Challenge) or Section 17.6 (Termination for Convenience), COMPANY shall, subject to Section 17.4 or, if applicable, Section 17.6, transfer to MorphoSys the full MOR208 program, including the following:

(a) License Termination. The licenses granted by MorphoSys to COMPANY under Article 2 shall terminate and COMPANY, its Affiliates and Sublicensees, and all Third Parties working on behalf of any of the foregoing, shall immediately stop using all Xencor Know-How, MorphoSys Know-How, Licensed Antibodies and Products, and stop all activities covered by the Patents licensed to COMPANY under Section 2.1 and COMPANY shall transfer prosecution, maintenance and enforcement of such Patents to MorphoSys.

(b) Termination of Co-Commercialization. The Co-Commercialization in the Co-Commercialization Territory and the Pre-Tax Profit (Loss) Share shall terminate. For clarity, MorphoSys may continue Commercialization in the Territory at its convenience and COMPANY shall cooperate to transfer all Commercialization activities ongoing by or on behalf of COMPANY, its Affiliates and Sublicensees to MorphoSys.

(c) Return of Licensed Know-How; Transfer of Know-how. Within [***] calendar days following such termination, COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) return to MorphoSys all then still existing Xencor Know-How, and MorphoSys Know-How received from MorphoSys as well as any Joint Development Data. COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) upon MorphoSys’ request (at no cost to MorphoSys) transfer to MorphoSys or its designee any COMPANY Know-How; such transfer shall be effected by the delivery of documents, to the extent such COMPANY Know-How is embodied in documents, and

115

CONFIDENTIAL

to the extent that such Know-How is not fully embodied in documents, COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) make its employees and agents who have knowledge of such Know-How in addition to that embodied in documents available to MorphoSys for interviews and demonstrations to effect such transfer. Further, MorphoSys shall have the right to use COMPANY Funded Development Data the same way MorphoSys may use Joint Development Data under this Agreement, subject to the payment of a buy-in fee equivalent to [***].

(d) Survival and Extension of Granted License. The licenses granted to MorphoSys pursuant to Section 2.4 shall survive and become perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, and fully paid; provided, however, that all such licenses shall, from the effect of the applicable termination notice, also grant MorphoSys the right to research, have researched, develop, have developed, make, have made, use, have used, sell, have sold, offer for sale, have offered for sale, import, have imported, export and have exported the Licensed Antibody and/or the Product(s) (i) inside the Field inside the Territory and (ii) in all other fields. COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) transfer prosecution, maintenance and enforcement of Patents licensed under Section 2.4 to MorphoSys. If COMPANY (or any Affiliate or Sublicensee) needs to make any payments specifically related to Licensed Antibody(ies) or Products to any Third Party for such Know-How of COMPANY or such technology claimed in a Patent Controlled by COMPANY, before COMPANY grants to MorphoSys such license, COMPANY shall first provide MorphoSys in writing with information about such payments, and MorphoSys shall request such license grant, and upon such request, MorphoSys shall commit to reimburse COMPANY (or Affiliate or Sublicensee) for such payments.

(e) Contract Transfer and/or Assignment. To the extent requested by MorphoSys in writing within [***] calendar days following the applicable termination notice, COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) transfer and/or assign to MorphoSys or, if so requested by MorphoSys, to Xencor all or specific licenses, manufacturing agreements and other contracts specific to Licensed Antibody and Products (including clinical trial, Manufacturing agreements, sublicensing and Distribution agreements with respect thereto), to the extent such licenses and other contracts are in effect as of the date of such termination and such transfer and/or assignment is permitted under the contract. COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) provide copies for review, but only to the extent permitted under such contracts, to enable MorphoSys and/or Xencor to make such decision within [***] calendar days after the applicable termination notice. To the extent that any such agreement or contract is not assignable by COMPANY (or Affiliate or Sublicensee), upon the request of MorphoSys, COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) cooperate in good faith and use diligent efforts to allow MorphoSys or any Affiliate or Third Party designated by MorphoSys to obtain and to enjoy the benefits of such agreement in the form of a license or other right to the extent COMPANY (or Affiliate or Sublicensee) has the right and ability to do so.

(f) Trademarks, Copyrights, other IP. To the extent requested by MorphoSys in writing within [***] calendar days following the applicable termination notice, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) transfer or otherwise exclusively license any intellectual property rights to MorphoSys or, if so requested by MorphoSys, to Xencor to (i) all Product Marks

116

CONFIDENTIAL

controlled by COMPANY (or Affiliate or Sublicensee) used in connection with the Commercialization of Licensed Antibody and/or Products in the Territory, (ii) to its part of the ownership in Global Product Marks and (iii) to its rights (including copyrights), title or interest in the promotional materials, package inserts and marketing materials, including marketing plans, for the Product used in the Territory, all (i), (ii) and (iii) including any goodwill associated therewith, and any registrations, applications and any internet domain name registrations and slogans, all to the extent related to the Product.

(g) Regulatory and Data Transfer. To the extent requested by MorphoSys in writing within [***] calendar days following the applicable termination notice and to the full extent permitted by Laws, COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) take all actions reasonably necessary to transfer to MorphoSys, or if so requested by MorphoSys, to Xencor, all Development Data (including all raw clinical data, SAS datasets, trial master files, Regulatory Data and regulatory correspondence and minutes of meetings with Governmental Authorities), Commercialisation data, including market research data, INDs, MAAs, Marketing Authorizations, Pricing Approvals and other regulatory filings related to Licensed Antibody or Product that COMPANY or its Affiliates or Sublicensees holds as of the time of such termination, and any other documentation or data needed in accordance with International Conference of Harmonization E6 Good Clinical Practice: Consolidated Guidance), in each case of the foregoing to the extent reasonably required to support continued clinical and other Development and Commercialization. COMPANY shall (or ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) appoint MorphoSys or a designated Third Party as COMPANY’s agent for all Product-related matters involving regulatory authorities until all Marketing Authorizations and other regulatory filings and approvals have been transferred to MorphoSys or its designee, it being agreed that both Parties shall use reasonable and diligent efforts to have this transfer occur as rapidly as feasible. If the effective date of termination is after First Commercial Sale of a Product, then COMPANY (or ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees) shall appoint MorphoSys or a designated Third Party as its exclusive distributor of such Product and grant MorphoSys the right to appoint sub-distributors, until such time as all Marketing Authorizations have been transferred to MorphoSys or its designee it being agreed that both Parties shall use reasonable and diligent efforts to have this transfer occur as rapidly as feasible.

(i) Continuation of Contribution. If this Agreement is terminated by MorphoSys in accordance with Section 17.2(a) (Material Breach by COMPANY), Section 17.2(b) (Insolvency of COMPANY), or Section 17.2(c) (Patent Challenge), and subject to the applicable termination notice, COMPANY shall continue to be responsible [***] until the earlier of (i) MorphoSys has concluded an agreement with a Third Party subject to which such Third Party receives a license or licenses to (A) Develop and Commercialize the Product in the COMPANY Territory and Co-Commercialization Territory in the Field or (B) to Commercialize the Product in the COMPANY Territory and Co-Commercialization Territory in the Field or (ii) [***] months after the applicable termination notice. If, within [***] months after the applicable termination notice, MorphoSys has entered into an agreement with a Third Party subject to which such Third Party receives a license to Develop and/or Commercialize the Product in the Field in the COMPANY Territory and Co-Commercialization Territory, under which good faith and arm’s length agreement such Third Party is obligated to pay to MorphoSys upfront fees and near-term [***] milestone payments, with such payments being in the aggregate at least [***] times the amount of Joint Development Costs paid by COMPANY to MorphoSys under this Agreement, then, promptly following receipt by MorphoSys of at least such aggregate payments from such Third Party, MorphoSys will [***] of the amount of Joint Development Costs paid by COMPANY under this Section 17.8(i). Except as stipulated in this Section (i), MorphoSys shall not be obligated [***].

(j) No Further Representations.

(k) Transition Assistance.

(i) To the extent reasonably permissible under the circumstances at the time, and to the extent requested by MorphoSys in writing [***] calendar days following the applicable termination notice, COMPANY shall (and ensure that its Affiliates and Sublicensees) provide such assistance as may be reasonably necessary to transfer and/or transition over a reasonable period of time to MorphoSys, or if so requested by MorphoSys, to Xencor any rights, items and contracts specified under 17.8(b), (d), (e), (f) and (g), including COMPANY Know-How, Product Marks, Global Product Marks, Development Data, Regulatory Data, Regulatory Materials, and Regulatory Approvals, (including contracts with contract research organisations, contract Manufacturing organisations and distributors) specific to Licensed Antibody or the Products with respect thereto, and provided that MorphoSys agrees to assume financial responsibility and all other obligations towards Third Parties under any licenses or contracts (other than the case where COMPANY has failed to obtain royalty-free

CONFIDENTIAL

rights under those certain Xencor Patents licensed to MorphoSys under Section 2.4(b)).

(ii) In addition, to the extent that COMPANY or a COMPANY Affiliate is then manufacturing itself (respectively) Products and upon MorphoSys' request in writing within [***] calendar days after the applicable termination notice, COMPANY shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to (or ensure that its Affiliate) continue to manufacture Products for MorphoSys' or Xencor’s use until the earlier of (i) [***] years and if reasonably required by MorphoSys to fully accomplish the technology transfer without supply interruption then [***] (for a total in that case of [***]) after the effective date of termination, and (ii) such time as MorphoSys has validated an alternative manufacturer (including [***]), and quantities of Product supplied by such manufacturer may legally be sold.

18. MISCELLANEOUS

18.1 Assignment. MorphoSys interests in this Agreement shall be assignable to Xencor in case of termination of the Xencor Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred by a Party to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that each Party may, without such consent, assign this Agreement in its entirety (i) to such Party’s Affiliate (for so long as the relationship of affiliation endures) or (ii), subject to Section 12.3, if such Party merges with, or all or substantially all of its business or assets are acquired by another entity (whether by merger, sale of assets, sale of stock or otherwise), to the Party’s merger partner or the Acquirer as part of such acquisition (each of (i) and (ii), an “M&A Event”). Each Party agrees that, notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if this Agreement is assigned by a Party in connection with an M&A Event, such assignment shall not provide the non-assigning Party with rights or access to intellectual

119

CONFIDENTIAL

property or technology of the merger partner or acquirer of the assigning Party existing prior to such M&A Event. Any permitted assignment shall be binding on the successors of the assigning Party. In addition, notwithstanding anything express or implied in this Agreement, if MorphoSys and/or COMPANY becomes part of the corporate family of a larger pharmaceutical or biopharmaceutical company, then under no circumstances shall any entities in that family other than MorphoSys and/or COMPANY and its respective Affiliates prior to joining the corporate family, be deemed to be “Affiliates” of MorphoSys or COMPANY for purposes of the intellectual property definitions in this Agreement. Other than an assignment under the first sentence of this Section 18.1, any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section shall be null and void.

18.2 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future Laws, and if the rights or obligations of either Party under this Agreement shall not be materially and adversely affected thereby, (i) such provision shall be fully severable, (ii) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (iii) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance here from, and (iv) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and reasonably acceptable to the Parties herein.

18.3 Governing Law, Dispute Resolution.

(a) Governing Law, Jurisdiction. This Agreement, and any disputes between the Parties related to or arising out of this Agreement (including the Parties’ relationship created hereby, the negotiations for and entry into this Agreement, its conclusion, binding effect, amendment, coverage, termination, or the performance or alleged non-performance of a Party of its obligations under this Agreement) (each a "Dispute"), shall be governed by the Laws of [***], without regard to any choice of law principle that would require the application of the Law of another jurisdiction. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for International Sales of Goods (CISG) shall not apply to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations under Section [***] shall be interpreted under [***] law except as otherwise specified in such Section.

(b) Dispute Resolution. The Parties recognize that disputes as to certain matters may from time to time arise which relate to either Party's rights and/or obligations hereunder.

Accordingly, subject to the specific resolution process set forth under Sections 9.2(e) and 9.3 for certain controversies, any Dispute, including any such Dispute involving Affiliates of any Party shall be resolved as set forth in EXHIBIT 11.

(c) Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section shall limit either Party’s right to seek immediate temporary injunctive or other temporary equitable relief whenever the facts or circumstances would permit a Party to seek such relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.

121

CONFIDENTIAL

respective MorphoSys Party which, at the sole discretion of MorphoSys, in the internal relationship between these MorphoSys Parties is responsible for this obligation, shall be obligated to fulfil such obligation; provided, however, that MorphoSys Inc. may only perform obligations under this Agreement so long as it remains a subsidiary of MorphoSys AG.

The waiver by either Party hereto of any right hereunder or of claims based on the failure to perform or a breach by the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by said other Party whether of a similar nature or otherwise.

18.11 No Benefit to Third Parties. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns, and it shall not be construed as conferring any rights on any other parties, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

This Agreement has been submitted to the scrutiny of, and has been negotiated by, both Parties and their counsel, and shall be given a fair and reasonable interpretation in accordance with its terms, without consideration or weight being given to any such terms having been drafted by any Party or its counsel. No rule of strict construction shall be applied against either Party.

MorphoSys and Incyte Sign Global Collaboration and License Agreement for Tafasitamab

- MorphoSys and Incyte to co-commercialize tafasitamab in the U.S.

- Incyte has exclusive commercialization rights outside of the U.S.

- MorphoSys and Incyte to host joint conference call on January 13, 2020 at 7:00am PST / 4:00pm CET

MorphoSys AG (FSE: MOR; Prime Standard Segment; MDAX & TecDAX; NASDAQ: MOR) and Incyte Corporation (NASDAQ: INCY) announced today that the companies have entered into a collaboration and license agreement to further develop and commercialize MorphoSys’ proprietary anti-CD19 antibody tafasitamab (MOR208) globally. Tafasitamab is an Fc-engineered antibody against CD19 currently in clinical development for the treatment of B cell malignancies. MorphoSys and Incyte will co-commercialize tafasitamab in the U.S., while Incyte has exclusive commercialization rights outside of the U.S.

“The global partnership with Incyte is an important step towards unlocking the full potential of tafasitamab and achieving our goal of rapidly bringing tafasitamab to patients inside and outside of the U.S.,” said Jean-Paul Kress, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of MorphoSys. “The combination of our strong antibody and drug development expertise partnered with Incyte’s well-established hematology-oncology experience and their commercial operations in key territories has the potential to significantly broaden the tafasitamab opportunity. We are pleased to work with Incyte to jointly improve the lives of patients suffering from DLBCL and other devastating diseases.”

“Bringing together Incyte’s expertise and MorphoSys‘ commitment to innovation will allow us to make tafasitamab widely available to patients with cancer, upon approval,” said Hervé Hoppenot, CEO of Incyte. “We look forward to collaborating closely with the team at MorphoSys and adding tafasitamab to our portfolio of oncology candidates as part of our committment to bringing new, advanced treatment options to patients and the clinical community around the world.”

Under the terms of the agreement, MorphoSys will receive an upfront payment of $750 million and, in addition, Incyte will make an equity investment into MorphoSys of $150 million in new American Depositary Shares (ADS) of MorphoSys at a premium to the share price at signing of the agreement. Depending on the achievement of certain developmental, regulatory and commercial milestones, MorphoSys will be eligible to receive milestone payments amounting to up to $1.1 billion. MorphoSys will also receive tiered royalties on ex-U.S. net sales of tafasitamab in a mid-teens to mid-twenties percentage range of net sales.

In the U.S., MorphoSys and Incyte will co-commercialize tafasitamab, with MorphoSys leading the commercialization strategy and booking all revenues from sales of tafasitamab. Incyte and MorphoSys will be jointly responsible for commercialization activities in the U.S. and will share profits and losses on a 50:50 basis. Outside the U.S., Incyte will have exclusive commercialization rights, and will lead the commercialization strategy and book all revenues from sales of tafasitamab, paying MorphoSys royalties on ex-U.S. net sales.

Furthermore, the companies will share development costs associated with global and U.S.-specific trials at a rate of 55% (Incyte) to 45% (MorphoSys); Incyte will cover 100% of the future development costs for trials that are specific to ex-U.S. countries.

Both parties have agreed to co-develop tafasitamab broadly in relapsed/refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (r/r DLBCL), frontline DLBCL as well as additional indications beyond DLBCL, such as follicular lymphoma (FL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Incyte will be responsible for initiating a combination study of its investigational PI3K-delta inhibitor parsaclisib and tafasitamab in r/r B cell malignancies. Further, Incyte will be responsible for leading any potential registration-enabling studies in CLL and a phase 3 trial in r/r FL/MZL. MorphoSys will continue to be responsible for its currently ongoing clinical trials of tafasitamab in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), CLL, r/r DLBCL and frontline DLBCL. The parties will share responsibility in starting additional global trials, and Incyte intends to pursue development in additional territories including Japan and China.

MorphoSys recently submitted a Biologics License Application (BLA) for tafasitamab, in combination with lenalidomide, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of r/r DLBCL; the FDA decision regarding a potential approval is expected by mid-2020. The submission of a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in r/r DLBCL is planned for mid-2020.

The agreement between MorphoSys and Incyte, including the equity investment, is subject to clearance by the U.S. antitrust authorities under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act as well as by the German and Austrian antitrust authorities, and will become effective as soon as these conditions have been met.

MorphoSys and Incyte will host a joint conference call on January 13, 2020 at 7:00am PST/ 4:00pm CET.

Dial-in numbers for the conference call on Monday, January 13, 2020 at 7:00am PST; 3:00pm GMT; 10:00am EST; 04:00pm CET:

About Tafasitamab

Tafasitamab is an investigational humanized Fc-engineered monoclonal antibody directed against CD19. In 2010, MorphoSys licensed exclusive worldwide rights to develop and commercialize tafasitamab from Xencor, Inc. Tafasitamab incorporates an XmAb® engineered Fc domain, which is intended to lead to a significant potentiation of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent

cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), thus aiming to improve a key mechanism of tumor cell killing. MorphoSys is clinically investigating tafasitamab as a therapeutic option in B cell malignancies in a number of ongoing combination trials. An open-label phase 2 combination trial (L-MIND study) is investigating the safety and efficacy of tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide in patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL who are not eligible for high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Based on interim data from L-MIND, in October 2017 the U.S. FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation for tafasitamab plus lenalidomide in this patient population. Re-MIND, the real-world data lenalidomide alone matched control cohort met its primary endpoint in October 2019, demonstrating clinical superiority of the tafasitamab/lenalidomide combination compared to lenalidomide alone. The ongoing phase 3 study B-MIND assesses the combination of tafasitamab and bendamustine versus rituximab and bendamustine in r/r DLBCL. In addition, tafasitamab is currently being investigated in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL after discontinuation of a prior Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor therapy (e.g. ibrutinib) in combination with idelalisib or venetoclax.

Each party shall be liable to data subjects for damages it causes by any breach of third party rights under these clauses. This does not affect the liability of the data exporter under its data protection law.

(b) The parties agree that a data subject shall have the right to enforce as a third party beneficiary this clause and clauses Clause 1(b), Clause 1(d), Clause 1(e), Clause 2(a), Clause 2(c), Clause 2(d), Clause 2(e), Clause 2(h), Clause 2(i), Clause 3(a), Clause 5, Clause 6(d)and Clause 7 against the data importer or the data exporter, for their respective breach of their contractual obligations, with regard to his personal data, and accept jurisdiction for this purpose in the data exporter’s country of establishment.

(c) Each party shall abide by a decision of a competent court of the data exporter’s country of establishment or of the authority which is final and against which no further appeal is possible.

7. TERMINATION

(a) In the event that the data importer is in breach of its obligations under these clauses, then the data exporter may temporarily suspend the transfer of personal data to the data importer until the breach is repaired or the contract is terminated.

(b) In the event that:

(i) the transfer of personal data to the data importer has been temporarily suspended by the data exporter for longer than one month pursuant to Clause 6(a);

(v) a petition is presented for the administration or winding up of the data importer, whether in its personal or business capacity, which petition is not dismissed within the applicable period for such dismissal under applicable law; a winding up order is made; a receiver is appointed over any of its assets; a trustee in bankruptcy is appointed, if the data importer is an individual; a company voluntary arrangement is commenced by it; or any equivalent event in any jurisdiction occurs

then the data exporter, without prejudice to any other rights which it may have against the data importer, shall be entitled to terminate these clauses, in which case the authority shall be informed where required.

(i) any Commission positive adequacy decision under Article 25(6) of Directive 95/46/EC (or any superseding text) is issued in relation to the country (or a sector thereof) to which the data is transferred and processed by the data importer, or

(ii) Directive 95/46/EC (or any superseding text) becomes directly applicable in such country.

(d) The parties agree that the termination of these clauses at any time, in any circumstances and for whatever reason (except for termination under Clause 6(c) does not exempt them from the obligations and/or conditions under the clauses as regards the processing of the personal data transferred.

8. VARIATION OF THESE CLAUSES

The parties may not modify these clauses except to update any information in Annex B, in which case they will inform the authority where required. This does not preclude the parties from adding additional commercial clauses where required.

9. DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSFER

The details of the transfer and of the personal data are specified in Annex B. The parties agree that Annex B may contain confidential business information which they will not disclose to third parties, except as required by law or in response to a competent regulatory or government agency, or as required under Clause 1(e).

ANNEX A

DATA PROCESSING PRINCIPLES

1. Purpose limitation: Personal data may be processed and subsequently used or further communicated only for purposes described in Annex B or subsequently authorised by the data subject.

2. Data quality and proportionality: Personal data must be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date. The personal data must be adequate, relevant and not excessive in relation to the purposes for which they are transferred and further processed.

3. Transparency: Data subjects must be provided with information necessary to ensure fair processing (such as information about the purposes of processing and about the transfer), unless such information has already been given by the data exporter.

4. Security and confidentiality: Technical and organisational security measures must be taken by the data controller that are appropriate to the risks, such as against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access, presented by the processing. Any person acting under the authority of the data controller, including a processor, must not process the data except on instructions from the data controller.

5. Rights of access, rectification, deletion and objection: As provided in Article 12 of Directive 95/46/EC, data subjects must, whether directly or via a third party, be provided with the personal information about them that an organisation holds, except for requests which are manifestly abusive, based on unreasonable intervals or their number or repetitive or systematic nature, or for which access need not be granted under the law of the country of the data exporter. Provided that the authority has given its prior approval, access need also not be granted when doing so would be likely to seriously harm the interests of the data importer or other organisations dealing with the data importer and such interests are not overridden by the interests for fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject. The sources of the personal data need not be identified when this is not possible by reasonable efforts, or where the rights of persons other than the individual would be violated. Data subjects must be able to have the personal information about them rectified, amended, or deleted where it is inaccurate or processed against these principles. If there are compelling grounds to doubt the legitimacy of the request, the organisation may require further justifications before proceeding to rectification, amendment or deletion. Notification of any rectification, amendment or deletion to third parties to whom the data have been disclosed need not be made when this involves a disproportionate effort. A data subject must also be able to object to the processing of the personal data relating to him if there are compelling legitimate grounds relating to his particular situation. The burden of proof for any refusal rests on the data importer, and the data subject may always challenge a refusal before the authority.

6. Sensitive data: The data importer shall take such additional measures (e.g. relating to security) as are necessary to protect such sensitive data in accordance with its obligations under Clause 2.

7. Data used for marketing purposes: Where data are processed for the purposes of direct marketing, effective procedures should exist allowing the data subject at any time to “opt-out” from having his data used for such purposes.

8. Automated decisions: For purposes hereof “automated decision” shall mean a decision by the data exporter or the data importer which produces legal effects concerning a data subject or significantly affects a data subject and which is based solely on automated processing of personal data intended to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to him, such as his performance at work, creditworthiness, reliability, conduct, etc. The data importer shall not make any automated decisions concerning data subjects, except when:

(a) such decisions are made by the data importer in entering into or performing a contract with the data subject, and

(ii) (the data subject is given an opportunity to discuss the results of a relevant automated decision with a representative of the parties making such decision or otherwise to make representations to that parties.

(b) where otherwise provided by the law of the data exporter.

Without undue delay after confirmation of receipt of the New Shares by the Depositary, MorphoSys shall instruct the Depositary to deliver four ADSs per New Share representing such New Share free of payment to a securities account of COMPANY as notified by COMPANY to MorphoSys or as the Depositary may otherwise require in due time prior to Registration Time. COMPANY shall take all steps necessary required by it to effect the delivery of the ADSs.

3. REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING DELIVERY OF ADSs

COMPANY represents and warrants to MorphoSys that:

(a) COMPANY is acquiring the New ADSs for his own account as principal, not as a nominee or agent, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof in whole or in part and no other person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the amount of ADSs COMPANY is acquiring. Further, COMPANY does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to the New ADSs COMPANY is acquiring.

(b) COMPANY understands that the New ADSs have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), and are being sold in reliance upon a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act. COMPANY understands that the New ADSs are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, COMPANY must hold the New ADSs indefinitely unless they are registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. COMPANY acknowledges that MorphoSys has no obligation to register or qualify the ADSs.

(c) For so long as the New ADSs are “restricted securities” under the Securities Act the New ADSs will not be fungible with all other ADSs issued pursuant to the Deposit Agreement and will be subject to the following legend restricting transfer or surrender for the purpose of withdrawal:

“THE AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES TO WHICH THIS CONFIRMATION RELATES AND THE ORDINARY SHARES (THE “SHARES”) OF MORPHOSYS AG (“MORPHOSYS”) REPRESENTED THEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR IN A TRANSACTION THAT IS EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THAT

ACT, AS CONFIRMED BY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT IS SATISFACTORY TO MORPHOSYS AND THE DEPOSITARY, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS.”

(d) So long as the above restriction applies, the New ADSs will not be eligible for settlement through the Depositary Trust Corporation.

4. REPRESENTATIONS OF MORPHOSYS

MorphoSys represents and warrants to COMPANY each of the matters set forth in Annex 6 hereto.

5. IMPLEMENTATION OF CAPITAL INCREASE; CONSEQUENCES IN CASE OF FAILURE

If the registration of the Capital Increase with the commercial register has not been effected until [***] months after the Effective Date, 12:00 (Frankfurt time), at the election of COMPANY, (i) the Parties shall reinitiate such efforts for an additional [***]-month period, or (ii) the Subscription Certificate for the New Shares shall, in accordance with its terms, expire and MorphoSys shall without undue delay (unverzüglich) repay the Aggregate Purchase Price. If COMPANY elects the option under (i) above, and the Capital Increase has not been effected within such additional [***]-month period, then the consequence under (ii) applies. Upon repayment to COMPANY of the foregoing amount, the Parties shall have no further obligation to each other with respect to the matters set forth in Section 8.1(b) of the Collaboration Agreement and this Purchase Agreement.

6. LISTING

MorphoSys undertakes to cause, without undue delay after Registration Time, the New Shares to be admitted to trading on the regulated market (Regulierter Markt) segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the sub-segment thereof with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard), or any successor thereof, and to use [***] efforts to maintain such listing.

7. REMOVAL OF RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS

MorphoSys agrees that at such time as the New ADSs cease to be “restricted securities” such that any legend of the type set forth in Section 3(c) is no longer

required, MorphoSys shall, no later than [***] Business Days following notice by COMPANY, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Depositary to remove any such legend (including by causing the delivery of any required instructions or legal opinions) and to facilitate any transfers of such New ADSs to an unrestricted depositary facility.

8. LOCK-UP

(a) Lock-up Period. COMPANY hereby undertakes to MorphoSys that for a period of eighteen (18) months following Registration Time (the "Lock-Up Period"), it will not,

i. sell, transfer, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of (verfügen über) (including the granting of any option over or the creation of any form of trust relationship in respect of) any New Shares or New ADSs;

ii. enter into any agreement or transaction in respect of any voting rights or other rights attaching to any New Shares or New ADSs;

iii. enter into any transaction (including derivative transactions) or carry out any other action that would be the economic equivalent of any of the above;

in each case without the prior written consent of the management board of MorphoSys. The foregoing restrictions shall not apply to: (A) any transfers to COMPANY’s Affiliates, (B) any transfers made following termination of the Collaboration Agreement pursuant to Section 17.2(a) thereof where MorphoSys is the Breaching Party and (C) any transfers in connection with or following a MorphoSys Change of Control; provided that in each transfer pursuant to clause (A), the transferee agrees to be bound in writing by the terms of this Purchase Agreement prior to such transfer.

(b) Restriction on Sales following the Lock-Up Period. Following the end of the Lock-Up Period, COMPANY may only transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of, in any three (3)-month period, 25% of the aggregate number of New Shares or New ADSs subscribed to herein; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, COMPANY may sell up to 50% of the aggregate number of New Shares or New ADSs subscribed to herein following the end of the Lock-Up Period in a sale to a single purchaser (but in the event that any such sale to a single purchaser exceeds 25% of the New Shares or New ADSs subscribed to herein, the number of New Shares or New ADSs that may be sold in any other transactions within three (3) months

of such sale to a single purchaser shall be reduced by such excess amount in order to ensure that sales within any three (3)-month period from the first sale to a single purchaser do not exceed in total 50% of the New Shares or New ADSs subscribed to herein (including the New Shares or New ADSs sold in the first sale to a single purchaser)). In the event COMPANY intends to sell more than 25% of the aggregate number of New Shares or New ADSs subscribed to herein in a single transaction, COMPANY shall notify and consult with MorphoSys about offering to sell such New Shares or New ADSs to certain investors of MorphoSys identified by MorphoSys.

9. CONDITIONS TO SUBSCRIPTION

1.3 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Purchase Agreement, the issuance and sale of the New ADSs or the New Shares and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Purchase Agreement will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of MorphoSys pursuant to, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which MorphoSys is a party, by which MorphoSys is bound or to which any of the property or assets of MorphoSys is subject, (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of MorphoSys or (iii) result in the violation of any law or statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over MorphoSys or any of its subsidiaries, except, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii) above, for any such conflict, breach, violation or default that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

1.4 No Governmental Authority or Third Party Consents. To MorphoSys’ Knowledge, no consent, approval, authorization, order, regulatory license, registration or qualification of or with any court or arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority is required for the execution, delivery and performance by MorphoSys of this Purchase Agreement or the issuance and sale of the New ADSs or the New Shares, except (i) such filings as may be required to be made with the SEC and with any state blue sky or other U.S or foreign securities regulatory authority, which filings shall be made in a timely manner in accordance with all applicable Laws, (ii) as required pursuant to the HSR Act or under any other applicable competition, merger control, antitrust or similar Law of any jurisdiction, (iii) the registration of the capital increase in relation to the New Shares with the commercial register and (iv) the admission to trading and introduction to trading of the New Shares by the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

party or to which any property of MorphoSys is subject that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and no such investigations, actions, suits or proceedings are, to the Knowledge of MorphoSys, threatened or contemplated by any governmental or regulatory authority or others. For clarity, the aforementioned shall not cover proceedings before patent or trademark offices.

MorphoSys and its subsidiaries, to MorphoSys’ Knowledge, possess or are in the process of obtaining all material regulatory licenses, certificates, permits and other authorizations issued by, and have made all declarations and filings with, the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign governmental or regulatory authorities that are necessary for the ownership or lease of their respective properties or the conduct of their respective businesses as described in MorphoSys SEC Documents, except where the failure to possess or make the same would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; and except as described in MorphoSys SEC Documents and except where any revocation would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, neither MorphoSys nor any of its subsidiaries has received notice of any revocation or modification of any such regulatory license, certificate, permit or authorization or has any reason to believe that any such license, certificate, permit or authorization will not be renewed. MorphoSys and its subsidiaries are, and at all times since April 19, 2018, have been, to MorphoSys’ Knowledge, in compliance in all material respects with all statutes, rules and regulations applicable to the ownership, packaging, processing, use, distribution, import, or export of any product manufactured or distributed by MorphoSys or its subsidiaries, except where such noncompliance would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

1.7 MorphoSys SEC Documents; Financial Statements; Nasdaq Market.

(a) Since April 19, 2018, MorphoSys has timely filed all required reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents (including exhibits and all other information incorporated therein) required to be filed or furnished by it under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any required amendments to any of the foregoing, with the SEC (the “MorphoSys SEC Documents”). As of their respective filing dates, each of the MorphoSys SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such MorphoSys SEC Documents, and no MorphoSys SEC Documents when filed, declared effective or mailed, as applicable, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c) The financial statements of MorphoSys filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and those it filed with the SEC for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2019; June 30, 2019; and September 30, 2019 present fairly in all material respects the financial position of MorphoSys and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates indicated and the results of their operations and the changes in their cash flows for the periods specified; such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with IFRS applied on

CONFIDENTIAL

a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby, except as otherwise disclosed therein and, in the case of unaudited, interim financial statements, subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the exclusion of certain footnotes, and any supporting schedules included in MorphoSys SEC Documents present fairly the information required to be stated therein.

(d) The ADSs are listed on the Nasdaq Market, and MorphoSys has taken no action designed to, or which is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the ADSs under the Exchange Act or delisting the ADSs from the Nasdaq Market. MorphoSys has not received any notification that, and has no Knowledge that, the SEC or the Nasdaq Market is contemplating terminating such listing or registration.

1.9 Offering. The offer, sale and issuance of the New ADSs to be issued in conformity with the terms of this Purchase Agreement constitute transactions which are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and from all applicable state registration or qualification requirements. Neither MorphoSys nor any person or entity acting on its behalf will take any action that would cause the loss of such exemption.

1.10 No Integration. MorphoSys has not, directly or through any agent, sold, offered for sale, solicited offers to buy or otherwise negotiated in respect of, any security (as defined in the Securities Act), that is or will be integrated with the sale of the New ADSs in a manner that would require registration of the New ADSs under the Securities Act.

1.11 No General Solicitation. Neither MorphoSys nor any person acting on behalf of MorphoSys has offered or sold any of the New ADSs or the New Shares by any form of general solicitation or general advertising. MorphoSys has offered the New ADSs for sale only to COMPANY.

1.12 Foreign Corrupt Practices. To MorphoSys’ Knowledge neither MorphoSys nor any agent or other person acting on behalf of MorphoSys, has, since April 19, 2018: (i) directly or indirectly used any funds for contributions, gifts, entertainment or other expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity which is unlawful in any material respect, (ii) made any payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds which is unlawful in any material respect, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by MorphoSys (or made by any person acting on its behalf of which MorphoSys is aware) which is in violation of law in any material respect or (iv) violated in any material respect any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, or any applicable non-U.S. anti-bribery Law.

1.13 Regulation M Compliance. MorphoSys has not taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that would reasonably be expected to cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of the New ADSs to facilitate their sale or resale.

(i) conduct Clinical Trials with Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimens in the Incyte Territory and in the Novartis JAK Territory solely for the purposes of:

(x) using, offering for sale and selling JAK Licensed Products in, and importing JAK Licensed Compounds and JAK Licensed Products into, the Novartis JAK Territory in the JAK Field, and

(ii) Commercialize Novartis Combination Compounds as a component of a Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen (i.e. label license) in the Incyte Territory in the JAK Field wherein the license under this Section 2.1(c)(ii) shall be royalty free under any Valid Claim(s) Covering a treatment for an indication with a Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen (but, for clarity, Novartis shall not Commercialize, sell or book sales of JAK Licensed Compounds, JAK Licensed Products or Combination Products in the Incyte Territory but may market, detail and promote the Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen); and

(iii) subject to Incyte’s election to seek Regulatory Approval of an Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Novartis JAK Territory pursuant to Section 4.8(d) of this Agreement, seek Regulatory Approval of JAK Licensed Product(s) as a component of an Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen (label license) and Commercialize JAK Licensed Product(s) as a component of an Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen (label license) in the Novartis JAK Territory in the JAK Field (but for clarity, Novartis shall not Commercialize an Incyte Combination Compound anywhere in the world).

(i) conduct Clinical Trials with Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimens in the Novartis JAK Territory and in the Incyte Territory solely for the purposes of:

(x) using, offering for sale and selling JAK Licensed Products in, and importing JAK Licensed Compounds and JAK Licensed Products into, the Incyte Territory in the JAK Field, and

(iii) subject to Novartis’ election to seek Regulatory Approval of a Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Incyte Territory pursuant to Section 4.8(d) of this Agreement, seek Regulatory Approval of JAK Licensed Products(s) as a component of a Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen (label license) and Commercialize JAK Licensed Products as a component of a Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen (label license) in the Incyte Territory in the JAK Field (but for clarity, Incyte shall not Commercialize a Novartis Combination Compound anywhere in the world).

2.2(d) Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Amendment or the Agreement, the license rights granted by Novartis to Incyte do not include any claims to any compound that is not a JAK2 Inhibitor Compound. By way of example, in the event that a Combination Product is approved by a Regulatory Authority that includes a JAK Licensed Compound and a Novartis Combination Compound, nothing herein shall be deemed to give Incyte the right to research, Develop or Commercialize such Combination Product anywhere in the world; any such right would be the subject of an additional agreement between the Parties.”

2.4 Joint Program Team. The Original Agreement is hereby amended to add the following provision after Section 3.2(c)(ii):

“(iii) The JPT shall have responsibility for reviewing (A) high level safety data (e.g., of the type of detail set forth in an investigator’s brochure) of the relevant Combination Compound and a high-level overview of proposed Clinical Trials (e.g., protocol synopsis) for any Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen and (B) the key safety data of any ongoing Clinical Trial for any Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen, such data to be provided as is relevant and would (1) reasonably be expected to be required by a relevant Regulatory Authority, (2) be shared between the Parties pursuant to the Pharmacovigilance Agreement, or (3) be set forth in an investigator’s brochure.”

2.5 Joint Commercialization Committee. The Original Agreement is hereby amended to add the following provisions after Section 3.2(d)(ii):

“(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.2(d), if a Party has exercised its buy-in rights with respect to a Clinical Trial or Development activity under Section 4.3(c) of the Agreement or if a relevant Regulatory Authority has required a Party to amend its approved label to add a Combination Compound and, as a result, both Parties are promoting the same Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the same country, the JCC shall have oversight in relation to a given (a) Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Incyte Territory, if Incyte has amended the approved label of a JAK Licensed Product in the Incyte Territory to include such Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen or (B) Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Novartis JAK Territory, if Novartis has amended the approved label of a JAK Licensed Product in the Novartis JAK Territory to include such Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen.

(iv) Incyte shall not have final decision-making authority in relation to a Novartis Combination Compound in the Incyte Territory and Novartis shall not have final decision-making authority in relation to an Incyte Combination Compound in the Novartis Territory.”

2.6 Development Activities of Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen.

(a) The Original Agreement is hereby amended to add the following provision after Section 4.7:

“4.8 Development Activities of Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Original Agreement or Amendment No. 5, the Parties agree that (i) no more than 600 patients at any given time shall be enrolled in Clinical Trials of a Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Incyte Territory conducted or sponsored by Novartis and (ii) no more than 600 patients at any given time shall be enrolled in Clinical Trials of an Incyte Non-Fixed

Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Novartis JAK Territory conducted or sponsored by Incyte, in each case, determined by reference to such Party’s then current enrollment plan.

(b) Clinical Trials of a Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen conducted (i) by Incyte in the Novartis JAK Territory or (ii) by Novartis in the Incyte Territory shall, in each case, only incorporate a JAK Licensed Product to the extent in the then-approved dosage range.

(c) If a Party, having considered the safety information provided in Section 3.2(c)(iii) and (a) the Clinical Trial design for a Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen or (b) data from an on-going Clinical Trial of a Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen, reasonably believes that starting or continuing a Clinical Trial or clinical study of such Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen is reasonably likely to have a material safety impact (such Party, the “Concerned Party”), then such Concerned Party shall present such concerns to the JPT in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2(c)(iii) and the other Party shall consider such belief in good faith in determining how to proceed with further Development of such Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen. The Parties agree that to the extent that (a) the protocol reviews by an applicable external institutional review board prior to initiation of a Clinical Trial, (b) the data review by an applicable independent data safety monitoring board after initiation of Clinical Trial, or (c) the FDA or equivalent Regulatory Authority, in each case, have identified and addressed the potential safety concerns or not raised any other objection, then the non-Concerned Party will have the right to initiate or continue a Clinical Trial (as the case may be) of a Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Concerned Party’s Territory.”

(d) (i) If Novartis seeks regulatory approval of a Novartis Combination Compound as a component of a Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Incyte Territory, Incyte shall have the right to seek regulatory approval of a JAK Licensed Product as a component of such Novartis Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Incyte Territory. (ii) If Incyte seeks regulatory approval of an Incyte Combination Compound as a component of an Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Novartis JAK Territory, Novartis shall have the right to seek regulatory approval of a JAK Licensed Product as a component of such Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Novartis JAK Territory. (iii) In each case of (i) and (ii), the Party that did not conduct the Clinical Trials or clinical studies of such Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen (the “Non-Conducting Party”) and is seeking regulatory approval of a JAK Licensed Product as a component of such conducting Party’s (the “Conducting Party”) Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimen in the Non-Conducting Party’s Territory shall follow the provisions of Section 4.3(c) of the Original Agreement as if such Non-Conducting Party were a “Buy-In Party,” as defined therein, with all rights and responsibilities as set forth therein, including the obligation to make the payment set forth in such provision. A Conducting Party will only be required to share with the Non-Conducting Party the minimum level of data necessary to support a Regulatory Approval

on a country-by-country basis, as determined by the applicable Regulatory Authority and all safety information to comply with Regulatory Authorities and in accordance with the Pharmacovigilance Agreement. (iv) Notwithstanding item (iii), in the event that a Regulatory Authority requires that a Non-Conducting Party either (a) submit to the JAK Licensed Product NDA, or (b) include in the label for a JAK Licensed Product, in each case of (a) and (b), data from a Conducting Party’s Clinical Trial or clinical study conducted pursuant to the rights granted under this Amendment No. 5, the Conducting Party hereby agrees to provide such data to the Non-Conducting Party and to allow the limited use of such data solely for such purpose without the requirement to make a payment to become a Buy-In Party; for clarity, in such event, the Non-Conducting Party may not use any such data for any other purpose unless it makes the payments as set forth in item (iii) For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that any such data shared pursuant to this Section 4.8 is “Confidential Information” and the Parties agree that such Confidential Information will be used by the Receiving Party solely to exercise its rights as a “Buy In Party” or as set forth in item (iv) in this Section 4.8(d) and for no other purpose.

(e) Without the prior written consent of Incyte, Novartis will not conduct a Clinical Trial or clinical study in the Incyte Territory that evaluates a monotherapy arm of the JAK Licensed Product versus a monotherapy arm of a Novartis Combination Compound. Without the prior written consent of Novartis, Incyte will not conduct a Clinical Trial or clinical study in the Novartis Territory that evaluates a monotherapy arm of the JAK Licensed Product versus a monotherapy arm of an Incyte Combination Compound.

(f) For clarity, each Party has the right to pursue any mechanism of action for the Incyte Combination Compound and Novartis Combination Compound, as applicable, subject to such Incyte Combination Compound and Novartis Combination Compound, and actions by the Parties in connection therewith, being otherwise compliant with the terms of this Amendment No. 5 and the Agreement. For clarity, Section 2.6 of the agreement shall remain in full force and effect.”

2.7 Clinical Supply of JAK Licensed Compounds for Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimens.

(a) The Original Agreement is hereby amended to add the following provision after Section 5.1(b):

“5.1(c) Clinical Supply of JAK Licensed Product for Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimens. Incyte agrees that it will acquire from Novartis or a Novartis distributor or sublicensee in the Novartis Territory commercial supply of JAK Licensed Product for use in Clinical Trials of Incyte Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimens in the Novartis Territory permitted pursuant to this Amendment No. 5, and Novartis agrees that it will acquire from Incyte or an Incyte distributor or sublicensee in the Incyte Territory commercial supply of JAK Licensed Product for use in Clinical Trials of Novartis Non-

Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimens in the Incyte Territory permitted pursuant to this Amendment No. 5, in each case, on arm’s length terms. In the event that Novartis or Incyte cannot acquire commercial supply for use in a particular Clinical Trial in accordance with the foregoing sentence, then the Party not conducting the Clinical Trial shall provide the other Party supply of JAK Licensed Product for such Clinical Trial at a price equal to that charged by the non-Conducting Party’s distributors or sublicensees in the country in which the Clinical Trial is being conducted pursuant to the terms of a clinical supply agreement to be agreed between the Parties.”

2.8 Non-Application of Certain Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Original Agreement, the Parties agree that the provisions of 3.2(b) (Joint JAK Development Committee), 3.2(e) (Joint Intellectual Property Committee), Section 3.3(b) (Final Decision-Making), Section 4.2 (Conduct of Development Activities), Section 4.3 (Development Activity Proposals), Section 4.6 (Development Reports), Section 6.1 (Commercialization Diligence) and Section 6.5(a) (Global Branding Strategy), and Article VII (Intellectual Property Ownership, Protection and Related Matters) of the Original Agreement shall not apply to Non-Fixed Dose JAK Combination Regimens.
