6. License and Sponsored Research Agreements

In January 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Yale University (“Yale”), which was amended in May 2020 and July 2020, under which the Company licensed certain intellectual property related to ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase enzymes that is the basis for the Company’s INZ-701 development program. Pursuant to the license agreement, as partial upfront consideration, the Company made a payment of approximately $0.1 million to Yale, which amount reflected unreimbursed patent expenses incurred by Yale prior to the date of the license agreement. The Company is responsible for paying Yale an annual license maintenance fee in varying amounts throughout the term ranging from the low tens of thousands of dollars to the high tens of thousands of dollars. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had incurred a life-to-date total of $0.5 million in license maintenance fees to Yale.

The Company is required to pay Yale up to $3.0 million, based on the achievement of a specified net product sales milestone or specified development and commercialization milestones, for each therapeutic and prophylactic-licensed product developed. In January 2022, the Company paid Yale an approximately $0.3 million milestone payment following dosing of the first patient in the Company’s Phase 1/2 clinical trial of INZ-701 in adult patients with ENPP1 Deficiency in November 2021. In March 2022, the Company paid Yale an approximately $0.3 million milestone payment following completion of the first cohort of the Company's Phase 1/2 clinical trial of INZ-701 in adult patients with ENPP1 Deficiency in January 2022. In March 2024, the Company incurred and paid a $0.5 million milestone payment following completion of dosing of the first patient in the Company’s pivotal clinical trial of INZ-701 in pediatric patients with ENPP1 Deficiency. In addition, the Company is required to pay Yale an amount in the several hundreds of thousands of dollars, based on the achievement of a specified net product sales milestone or specified

development and commercialization milestones, for each diagnostic licensed product developed. While the agreement remains in effect, the Company is required to pay Yale low single-digit percentage royalties on aggregate worldwide net sales of certain licensed products, which may be subject to reductions. Yale is guaranteed a minimum royalty payment amount (ranging in dollar amounts from the mid six figures to low seven figures) for each year after the first sale of a therapeutic or prophylactic-licensed product that results in net sales. Yale is guaranteed a minimum royalty payment amount (ranging from the low tens of thousands of dollars to the mid tens of thousands of dollars) for each year after the first sale of a diagnostic licensed product that results in net sales. Such minimum royalty payment amounts are summed for each year after the first sale of both a therapeutic or prophylactic-licensed product and a diagnostic licensed product has occurred. The Company must also pay Yale a percentage in the twenties of certain types of income it receives from sublicensees. The Company is also responsible for costs relating to the prosecution and maintenance of the licensed patents. Finally, subject to certain conditions, all payments due by the Company to Yale will be tripled following any patent challenge or challenge to a claim by Yale that a product is a licensed product under the agreement, made by the Company against Yale if Yale prevails in such challenge.

The Company has also agreed to pay for research support from Yale pursuant to a sponsored research agreement that the Company entered into with Yale in January 2017 and amended in February 2019, February 2022, May 2022, May 2023, January 2024, and December 2024. Under the sponsored research agreement, as amended, the Company agreed to pay Yale an aggregate of $3.4 million over nine years, ending in December 2025. As of March 31, 2025, the Company incurred a total of $3.1 million for research support under this agreement since inception.
