(the Purchased Assets)
We will pay Inovio an undisclosed purchase price for the Purchased Assets and cash fees and a royalty on commercial product sales related to the SECTA Technology.
In addition, pursuant to a cross-license agreement dated March 14, 2011 with Inovio, we will also grant Inovio a fully paid-up, exclusive, worldwide license to certain of the SECTA Technology patents in the field of use of electroporation to deliver genes and/or nucleic acids, outside of those encoding cytokines as active agent only. Inovio will also grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide license to certain non-SECTA Technology patents for consideration of the following:
(a) a fee for any sublicense of the Inovio Technology;
(b) a royalty on net sales of any business we develop with the Inovio Technology; and
