License AND DEVELOPMENT agreement

This license and development agreement (the ”Agreement”) is entered into the 1^st of January, 2019 between:

(1) ColoAlert AS, Trimtowers, Postboks 1063 Sandnes, Norway, company registration number 913 028 570 ("CA"), and

(2) PharmGenomics GmbH, Robert Koch Strasse 50, 55129 Mainz, Germany, company registration number HRB 41529 ("PGx")

in the following referred to individually as "Party" and jointly the "Parties".

***

1 BACKGROUND

CA is a diagnostic company established with the main objective to commercialize a technology related to colorectal cancer detection ("CRC"), as further specified below.

CA has obtained an exclusive license for a non-invasive screening test for CRC based detection of blood and genetic markers in stool samples (the "Genefec Test") from the Norwegian company Norda ASA ("Norda"), pursuant to an exclusive license agreement signed 4 December 2017 by Norda and 6 December 2017 by CA respectively (the "Norda Agreement"). The technology and knowhow related to the Genefec Test covered by the Norda Agreement is for the purposes of this Agreement referred to as the "Genefec Technology".

PGx is an innovative company specializing in the development and distribution of pharmacogenetic and human genetic diagnostic test for clinical applications. PGx has relevant the governmental accreditation for providing diagnostic service in Germany.

Pursuant to the Contract Development Agreement GenoChip Genefec dated 29 August 2013 (now terminated), CA engaged PGx to assist CA in further developing the Genefec Test under the trademark and brand name "ColoAlert Test", and further to get the ColoAlert Test validated.

The further development of the ColoAlert Test belonging to CA shall for the purposes of this Agreement be referred to as the "ColoAlert Technology".

The ColoAlert Test consists of two kits: (a) "Stool Collection Kit" (for patient use), and (b) a "Laboratory Kit" (for laboratory use).

The Parties entered into a Binding Term Sheet for Collaboration and License Agreement dated 2 June 2015 which opened for a launch of the ColoAlert Test as a lab-service provided by PGx.

The Parties entered into a Head of Terms dated 6 May 2016 which redefined the agreement to manufacturing and distribution of the Laboratory Kit in Europe and Gulf Cooperation Council states (the "HOT I-agreement").

The HOT I-agreement was replaced by the Heads of Terms of Development and a License for Manufacturing and Distribution of the ColoAlert Test Kits dated 31 May 2017 (the "HOT II-agreement").

PGx wishes to sub-license the ColoAlert Test and the underlying intellectual property and knowhow to third parties on the world market. PGx has, inter alia, been contacted by a Chinese Company that wishes to manufacture, market and sell the ColoAlert Test in China.

CA is willing to grant PGx an exclusive license to the ColoAlert Test and the underlying intellectual property and knowhow, including the right to sub-license, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

The Parties also wishes to continue to co-operate in developing and improving the ColoAlert Technology.

The Parties therefore agree as follows:

Appendix A

Description of the ColoAlert method for detection of CRC.

ColoAlert is a stool based test used for detection of colorectal cancer. The test will combine the use of genetic markers and detection of blood in stool samples. The test is based on extracting DNA from stool samples, and then analyzing that DNA for human DNA and somatic mutations within genes known to cause colorectal cancer. In addition, the ColoAlert method will combine the genetic testing with established methods for measuring the presence of blood in stool samples.

The ColoAlert technology licensed will include two kits:

- A stool collection kit

- A laboratory kit for detection of CRC

Stool collection kit

This first kit will be a stool sample collection kit. It will be a small box with the necessary tools and reagents for a patient to collect a stool sample and then deliver that sample to the ColoAlert analysis laboratory. Each stool collection kit will contain a transport safety tube, a stool collection tube, instructions for use, and if wanted by Third Party a packaging, transports solution and iFOBT or FOBT test may be included. More specifically, the stool collection tube will contain a special stool transport buffer for stabilizing the DNA in the stool sample until it arrives in the laboratory. The tube has a screw cap with a spoon attached – this spoon is used to collect the necessary amount of stool.

The content of the stool collection kit may be changed in the future for improving the collection kit (e.g. new stabilizing buffer, new stool collection device etc). These possible changes should be regarded as part of the stool collection kit and be included in the license.

Laboratory kit

This second “kit” contains the tools and reagents to perform the necessary analysis of the stool samples for detection of colorectal cancer. The kit enables the following steps:

Step 1: Automated DNA isolation from stool samples

The ColoAlert technology is based on extracting total DNA from stool samples collected with the above described stool collection kit. Currently the Diasorin (NorDiag) Arrow automated nucleic acid extraction platform is used for this purpose. There might be other DNA extraction methods developed in the future.

Step 2: DNA mutation analysis

Subsequent to the DNA isolation step, the DNA will be amplified (copied) by means of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and analyzed for presence of somatic mutations in the Kras and Braf genes down to 1%.

Step 3: Total Human DNA analysis

Subsequent to the DNA isolation step, the human DNA will be amplified (copied) by means of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The analysis measures the presence of total human DNA using a realtime PCR method to score the patient as positive or negative using a predefined threshold value.

Step 4: Detection of blood in stool (if this part of the is performed in a lab and not by the physician himself)

If wanted by Third Parties also stool samples will be analyzed for the presence of blood using a guaiac based FOBT test called ColoScreen from Helena laboratories. This is the same FOBT test that was used originally in the Leipzig trial. In future versions of the ColoAlert kit this FOBT analysis may be changed with other analysis methods for detection of blood in stool.
