DEFINITIONS

When used in this Agreement, each of the following terms shall have the meanings set forth in this ARTICLE I:

1.1 “Abandon” or “Abandoned” means with respect to either the JAK Program or the c-MET Program that (a) at any point in time prior to First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product under such Program, no Good Faith Development activities have occurred during at least the preceding [***] and no significant constraints on such Development imposed by a Regulatory Authority or a Force Majeure Event have been in effect during such period and (b) at any point in time after First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product under such Program, (i) Novartis does not promote a JAK Licensed Product in at least [***] EU Major Market Countries during the preceding [***] and during that period (w) Novartis has not reasonably determined that promotion in the remaining EU Major Market Countries is likely to reduce the overall commercial viability of the Program in the Novartis Territory, (x) no significant constraints on such promotion imposed by a Regulatory Authority have been in effect in the jurisdictions in which such promotion failed to occur, (y) no Force Majeure Event has been in effect in any jurisdictions in which such promotion failed to occur and (z) Novartis is not actively seeking pricing approval in at least [***] EU Major Market Countries, or (ii) Novartis does not promote a c-MET Licensed Product in at least [***] EU Major Market Countries and the United States during the preceding [***] months and during that period (w) Novartis

Notwithstanding the foregoing, an entity shall not be deemed an Affiliate by virtue of ownership of greater than [***] of such entity if such ownership is coupled with limitations, contractual or otherwise, that prevent such owner from directing the management and policies of such entity [***].

1.4 “Annual Net Sales” means aggregate Net Sales of c-MET Licensed Products or JAK Licensed Products, as applicable, by Novartis or its Affiliates or sublicensees in any Calendar Year, or in the first and last years of the term of this Agreement, the portion of such Calendar Year during which this Agreement is in effect.

(v) During the JAK Program Term, Incyte may not Develop or Commercialize JAK Licensed Compounds outside the JAK Field except that Incyte may Develop and Commercialize JAK Licensed Compounds for use in (A) topical formulations outside the JAK Field worldwide, and (B) non-oral formulations for ophthalmic Indications anywhere in the world.

(c) JSC Designation as Excluded Compoun d. In the event that either Party identifies a c-MET Inhibitor Compound (that is not a c-MET Excluded Compound under Section 1.11(a)) or a JAK2 Inhibitor Compound (that is not a JAK Excluded Compound under Section 1.57(a)) that such Party reasonably believes would not compete with a Licensed Product, including because (i) such compound, when tested in vivo, is shown to have its pharmacological effect via a mechanism other than via c-MET or JAK2, respectively, or (ii) such compound would be reasonably expected to serve a different and distinct patient population compared to existing Licensed Products, then such Party may schedule a discussion on this topic for the next scheduled JSC meeting. At such JSC meeting, such Party shall present the data supporting its contention that such compound would reasonably be expected not to compete with existing Licensed Products and therefore formally request that such compound be designated either a c-MET Excluded Compound or a JAK Excluded Compound. The JSC shall, no later than the next scheduled JSC meeting, decide whether to approve such request, which decision shall be approved solely by unanimous agreement of the JSC, provided that the Parties shall consider such decisions in good faith on the merits of whether clause (i) or (ii) above have been satisfied. In the event that either Party identifies a c-MET Inhibitor Compound or a JAK2 Inhibitor Compound that such Party reasonably believes would serve a different and distinct patient population compared to the respective Licensed Product but also is expected to serve some portion of the patient population served by existing Licensed Products, then in addition to presenting the relevant data about that compound, the requesting Party shall also propose an appropriate royalty rate that would fairly compensate the other Party for the potential royalties that it would be expected to forego based on the likely use of such compound in lieu of the relevant Licensed Product.

(b) Ownership. As between the Parties, all Inventions made or information created, by a Party’s or any of its Affiliates’ employees, independent contractors or consultants, in the course of conducting activities under this Agreement, together with all Intellectual Property Rights therein, shall be owned by such Party. All inventions or discoveries made, or information created, jointly by each Party’s (or any of its Affiliates’) employees, independent contractors or consultants, in the course of conducting activities under this Agreement, together with all Intellectual Property Rights therein, shall be jointly owned by the Parties and are “Joint IP”. Joint IP shall be owned jointly by Incyte and Novartis on the basis of an undivided interest without a duty to account to the other Party and shall be deemed to be Controlled by each Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Party shall have the right to use such Joint IP, or license such Joint IP to its Affiliates or any Third Party, or sell or otherwise transfer its interest in such Joint IP to its Affiliates or a Third Party, in each case without the consent of the other Party, so long as such use, sale, license or transfer is subject to the licenses granted pursuant to this Agreement and is otherwise consistent with this Agreement. The Parties, through the JSC and in accordance with Section 7.2, shall determine which Party shall be responsible for the filing, prosecution and maintenance of Joint IP on a case-by-case basis. Each Party hereby authorizes and grants the other Party its permission and consent to assume, directly or through its authorized agents, attorneys, or representatives, the responsibilities set forth in Section 7.2.

[***] Confidential material redacted and filed separately with the Commission.

(i) If within [***] after receipt of the notice set forth in Section 7.3(a) the JSC fails to agree on a joint course of action with respect to a Third Party Infringement, [***] will have the initial right to determine and control a course of action designed to curtail such Third Party Infringement, whether legal or commercial in the [***] in connection with the Third Party Infringement against a Third Party which is infringing the relevant Intellectual Property Rights by making, using or selling a product that competes with a Licensed Product in the Field in the [***], at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate. In the event such course of action includes litigation, [***] may choose, at its own expense, to be represented in such action by counsel of its own choice; provided, however, that if [***] is required as a necessary party to such action, [***] shall pay [***] reasonable expenses associated therewith. [***] shall keep [***] reasonably informed as to any legal or commercial courses of action it pursues pursuant to this subsection (i). At the request and expense of [***], [***] shall provide reasonable assistance to [***] in connection therewith, including by executing reasonably appropriate documents, cooperating in discovery and joining as a party to the action. In connection with any such proceeding, [***] shall not enter into any settlement admitting the invalidity of, or otherwise impairing [***] rights in, [***] or Joint IP without the prior written consent of [***]. Any recoveries resulting from such an action relating to a claim of Third Party Infringement shall be applied as follows:

B. Second, [***].

(ii) If within [***] after [***] receipt of a notice of a Third Party Infringement with respect to Joint IP or [***], [***] does not take any action as described in Section 7.3(b)(i) and permitted hereunder against a Third Party who is infringing such Intellectual Property Rights by making, using or selling a product that competes with a Licensed Product in the [***], [***] may, subject to the following sentence, in its sole discretion, bring and control any legal action in connection therewith at its sole expense. If [***] intends to bring any such legal action, it shall first notify [***] in writing of such intent and the reasons therefor and provide [***] with an opportunity to indicate to [***] its reasons for not bringing such legal action; and if [***] provides either a reasonable (x) legal basis for [***] not bringing such legal action, or (y) explanation of how [***] is taking commercial steps to curtail the Third Party Infringement, [***] shall not bring such legal action. [***] shall keep [***] reasonably informed as to any legal or commercial courses of action it pursues pursuant to this subsection (ii). At the request and expense of [***], [***] shall provide reasonable assistance to [***] in connection therewith, including by executing reasonably appropriate documents, and cooperating in discovery; provided, however, that nothing herein shall require [***] to join as a party or otherwise participate in such legal action, if in [***] reasonable opinion such participation will damage any of [***] commercial relationships.

The Parties shall thereafter conduct good faith discussions regarding whether such Third Party Patent Rights are necessary to make, use, sell, offer for sale or import Licensed Compound in the Field in any country in the [***]. If the Parties agree that such Third Party Patent Rights are necessary to make, use, sell, offer for sale or import Licensed Compound in the Field in any country in the [***], the Parties shall meet to discuss and determine which Party will be primarily responsible for the negotiation and execution of the corresponding license agreement; provided, however, that [***] shall have the first right to obtain a license and negotiate and execute a license agreement, in connection with the manufacture of Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products or with respect to any intellectual property applicable to the Licensed Compounds and Licensed Product. In the event the Parties agree that [***] shall have the right to negotiate and execute such a license agreement, at the request of [***], any such license from a Third Party shall include a license to [***] and its sublicensees with respect to the Licensed Compound in the [***] in and/or outside the Field. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party shall enter into a definitive license agreement with regard to such rights in the other Party’s territory without the other Party’s written consent.

Licensed Compounds or JAK Licensed Products, [***] of any up-front license fee or other acquisition cost and milestones based on the principle that such rights in the Incyte Territory constitute [***] of such cost and such rights in the Novartis JAK Territory constitute [***] of such cost. If such Third Party license rights are available only in one Party’s territory, such Party shall be responsible for one hundred percent (100%) of such costs subject to the deductions permitted under Section 7.5(c) and (d).

(c) Regardless of which Party licenses such rights, (i) each Party shall pay to the applicable Third Party licensor (or as applicable, to the licensing Party for delivery to such Third Party) all royalties payable in respect of sales of products by such Party, its Affiliates, or sublicensees and (ii) to the extent the Parties agree or [***] has determined in accordance with Section 7.5(a) that such in-licensed rights are necessary to make, use, sell, offer for sale or import Licensed Compound in the Field in any country in the [***] without infringing such Third Party Patent Rights, [***] shall be entitled to deduct up to [***] of the royalties paid or payable to such Third Party (pursuant to a license under such Third Party’s issued Valid Claim(s) that Cover the making, using, selling, offering for sale or importing of the applicable Licensed Compound in the Field in such country in the [***]) with respect to sales of a Licensed Product that contains such Licensed Compound in such country in the [***] from the royalties payable by [***] to [***] hereunder with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country; provided, however, that in no event shall the royalties payable under Section 8.3(a) be reduced in the aggregate pursuant to this Section 7.5(c) by more than [***] of the amounts set forth in Section 8.3(a).

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely with respect to patent application no. [***], Novartis shall be entitled to deduct up to [***] of the royalties paid or payable to such Third Party (pursuant to a license under such Third Party’s issued Valid Claim(s) that Cover the making, using, selling, offering for sale or importing by Novartis of the applicable c-MET Licensed Compound in the Field in any country in the Novartis Territory) with respect to sales of a c-MET Licensed Product that contains such c-MET Licensed Compound in such country in the Novartis Territory from the royalties payable by Novartis to Incyte hereunder with respect to Net Sales of such c-MET Licensed Product in such country; provided, however, that in no event shall the royalties payable under Section 8.3(a) be reduced in the aggregate pursuant to this Section 7.5(d) by more than [***] of the amounts set forth in Section 8.3(a).

(c) Royalties payable under this Section 8.3 shall be paid by the applicable Party on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and country-by-country basis from the date of First Commercial Sale of each Licensed Product with respect to which royalty payments are due for a period which is the longer of: (i) the last to expire of any Valid Claim of Licensed Patent Rights Covering such Licensed Product in such country; (ii) [***] following the date of First Commercial Sale in such country; and (iii) the expiration of Regulatory Exclusivity for such Licensed Product in such country (each such term with respect to a Licensed Product and a country, a “Royalty Term”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that either (A) the Royalty Term continues solely due to clause (ii) (i.e. in a specific country the Licensed Product is neither Covered by a Valid Claim of Licensed Patent Rights nor is such Licensed Product subject to Regulatory Exclusivity) or (B) Generic Competition exists with respect to a Licensed Product in a country with respect to a royalty-reporting period, then the royalty rates in such country for such Licensed Product (for such royalty-reporting period, if applicable) will be [***] the applicable rate in Section 8.3(a) [***], based on the weighted average annual royalty rate in the Novartis Territory or the Incyte Territory, as the case may be, beginning on January 1st of the Calendar Year following the first Calendar Year in which there exists a situation described in (A) or (B) of this sentence in the applicable country.

Royalty payments shall be made by the Royalty Paying Party to the bank account indicated by the Royalty Receiving Party within [***] after the end of the applicable Calendar Quarter; provided that the Royalty Receiving Party has issued the relevant invoice for royalty payment within [***] after the Royalty Receiving Party’s receipt of the royalty report from the Royalty Paying Party. In the event the Royalty Receiving Party fails to issue an invoice within such [***] period as described above, the Royalty Paying Party’s obligation to pay such amounts within [***] after the end of the applicable Calendar Quarter shall be extended by the number of days that lapse between the date the Royalty Receiving Party should have invoiced the Royalty Paying Party and the date the Royalty Receiving Party actually invoices the Royalty Paying Party.

8.5 Financial Records. The Parties shall keep complete and accurate books and records in accordance with the defined Accounting Standards. The parties will keep such books and records for at least [***] following the end of the Calendar Year to which they pertain. Such books of accounts shall be kept at the principal place of business of the financial personnel with responsibility for preparing and maintaining such records. With respect to royalties, such records shall be in sufficient detail to support calculations of royalties due to either Party. Novartis and Incyte shall also keep complete and accurate records and books of accounts containing all data reasonably required for the calculation and verification of Development Costs, including internal FTEs utilized by either Party in jointly funded Clinical Trials or other Development activities and any amounts that are subject to reimbursement pursuant to Section 6.3(b)(ii).

8.6 Audits.

(a) Each Party may, upon request and at its expense (except as provided for herein), cause an internationally-recognized independent accounting firm selected by it (except one to whom the Auditee has a reasonable objection), (the “Audit Team”) to audit during ordinary business hours the books and records of the other Party and the correctness of any payment made or required to be made to or by such Party, and any report underlying such payment (or lack thereof), pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Prior to commencing its work pursuant to this agreement, the Audit Team shall enter into an appropriate confidentiality agreement with the Auditee.

(b) In respect of each audit of the Auditee’s books and records: (i) the Auditee may be audited only [***], (ii) no records for any given year for an Auditee may be audited more than [***]; provided that the Auditee’s records shall still be made available if such

records impact another financial year which is being audited, (iii) the Audit Rights Holder shall only be entitled to audit books and records of an Auditee from the [***] prior to the Calendar Year in which the audit request is made.

(c) In order to initiate an audit for a particular Calendar Year, the Audit Right Holder must provide written notice to the Auditee. The Audit Rights Holder exercising its audit rights shall provide the Auditee with notice of one or more proposed dates of the audit not less than [***] prior to the first proposed date. The Auditee will reasonably accommodate the scheduling of such audit. The Auditee shall provide such Audit Team(s) with full and complete access to the applicable books and records and otherwise reasonably cooperate with such audit.

(d) The audit report and basis for any determination by an Audit Team shall be made available first for review and comment by the Auditee, and the Auditee shall have the right, at its expense, to request a further determination by such Audit Team as to matters which the Auditee disputes (to be completed no more than [***] after the first determination is provided to such Auditee and to be limited to the disputed matters). If the Parties disagree as to such further determination, the Audit Right Holder and the Auditee shall mutually select an internationally-recognized independent accounting firm that shall make a final determination as to the remaining matters in dispute that shall be binding upon the Parties. Such accountants shall not disclose to the Audit Rights Holder any information relating to the business of the Auditee except that which should properly have been contained in any report required hereunder or otherwise required to be disclosed to such Party to the extent necessary to verify the payments required to be made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(e) If the audit shows any under-reporting or underpayment, or overcharging by any Party, that under-reporting, underpayment or overcharging shall be reported to the Audit Rights Holder and the underpaying or overcharging Party shall remit such underpayment or reimburse such overcompensation (together with interest at the annual interest rate of [***] as published in the [***] or its successor on the last business day of the applicable calendar quarter prior to the audit) to the underpaid or overcharged Party within [***] after receiving the audit report. Further, if the audit for an annual period shows an under-reporting or underpayment or an overcharge by any Party for that period in excess of [***] of the amounts properly determined, the underpaying or overcharging Party, as the case may be, shall reimburse the applicable underpaid or overcharged Audit Rights Holder conducting the audit, for its respective audit fees and reasonable Out-of-Pocket Costs in connection with said audit, which reimbursement shall be made within [***] after receiving appropriate invoices and other support for such audit-related costs.

(f) For the purposes of the audit rights described herein, an individual Party subject to an audit in any given year will be referred to as the “Auditee” and the other Party who has certain and respective rights to audit the books and records of the Auditee will be referred to as the “Audit Rights Holder”.

8.7 Tax Matters. The royalties, milestones and other amounts payable by Novartis to Incyte pursuant to this Agreement (“Payments”) shall not be reduced on account of any taxes

-59-

[***] Confidential material redacted and filed separately with the Commission.

unless required by Law. Incyte alone shall be responsible for paying any and all taxes (other than withholding taxes required by Law to be deducted and paid on Incyte’s behalf by Novartis) levied on account of, or measured in whole or in part by reference to, any Payments it receives. The Parties will cooperate in good faith to obtain the benefit of any relevant tax treaties to minimize as far as reasonably possible any taxes which may be levied on any Payments. Novartis shall deduct or withhold from the Payments any taxes that it is required by Law to deduct or withhold. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Incyte is entitled under any applicable tax treaty to a reduction of the rate of, or the elimination of, applicable withholding tax, it may deliver to Novartis or the appropriate governmental authority (with the assistance of Novartis to the extent that this is reasonably required and is expressly requested in writing) the prescribed forms necessary to reduce the applicable rate of withholding or to relieve Novartis of its obligation to withhold tax, and Novartis shall apply the reduced rate of withholding tax, or dispense with withholding tax, as the case may be, provided that Novartis has received evidence of Incyte’s delivery of all applicable forms (and, if necessary, its receipt of appropriate governmental authorization) [***] prior to the time that the Payment is due. If, in accordance with the foregoing, Novartis withholds any amount, it shall make timely payment to the proper taxing authority of the withheld amount, and send to Incyte proof of such payment within [***] following that latter payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Novartis represents that the payments to be paid by Novartis to Incyte pursuant to Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 hereof shall not be subject to withholding tax under conditions less favorable to Incyte than those applicable to treaty-eligible residents under the income tax treaty between the United States and Switzerland in force at the point of time such payments are paid.

8.8 Currency Exchange.

(a) Sales and Royalty Calculations. The currency exchange method set out in this Section 8.8(a) shall be applied for calculations of amounts for sales and royalties. With respect to amounts invoiced in United States Dollars, all such amounts shall be expressed in United States Dollars. With respect to amounts invoiced in a currency other than United States Dollars, all such amounts shall be expressed both in the currency in which the amount was invoiced and in the United States Dollar equivalent. The United States Dollar equivalent shall be calculated using the Novartis Standard Exchange Rate Methodology for the conversion of foreign currency sales into United States Dollars.

(b) Development Cost Calculations. The currency exchange method set out in this Section 8.8(b) shall be applied for calculations of amounts for Development Costs. For purposes of any Development cost sharing between the Parties under this Agreement, such costs shall be calculated on a quarterly basis. With respect to amounts invoiced in United States Dollars, all such amounts shall be expressed in United States Dollars. With respect to amounts invoiced in a currency other than United States Dollars, all such amounts shall be expressed both in the currency in which the amount was invoiced and in the United States Dollar equivalent. The United States Dollar equivalent shall be calculated using the average of the last (bid) U.S. dollar/foreign currency rates for the last Business Day of each month in the calendar quarter for which Development Costs are being reported, as reported by The Wall Street Journal, for the conversion of foreign currency sales into United States Dollars.

8.9 Late Payments. The paying Party shall pay interest to the receiving Party on the aggregate amount of any payments that are not paid on or before the date such payments are due under this Agreement at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of the [***], as reported by The Wall Street Journal, [***] or the highest rate permitted by applicable Law, calculated on the number of days such payments are paid after the date such payments are due; provided, that with respect to any disputed payments, no interest payment shall be due until such dispute is resolved and the interest which shall be payable thereon shall be based on the finally-resolved amount of such payment, calculated from the original date on which the disputed payment was due through the date on which payment is actually made.

ARTICLE IX

The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue on a Program-by-Program basis until the earlier of (i) the termination of this Agreement or any program in accordance with Section 9.2; or (ii) following the First Commercial Sale of any Licensed Product, the expiration of the last-to-expire of all Royalty Terms with respect to all Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products within such Program (the “Term”). Notwithstanding the above, if there are any ongoing disputes at the end of the Term as set forth above, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until all such disputes are resolved.

9.2 Termination.

(a) Termination for Convenience. Novartis shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, in its entirety or on a Program-by-Program basis, for convenience upon [***] prior written notice to Incyte.

(b) Termination for Material Breach. If either Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) believes that the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) is in material breach of this Agreement, then the Non-Breaching Party may deliver notice of such breach to the Breaching Party. If the Breaching Party fails to cure such breach, or take such steps as would be considered reasonable to effectively cure such breach, within the [***] period after delivery of such notice, the Non‑Breaching Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the Breaching Party, which termination shall apply (x) solely with respect to a Program (and all Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products for such Program) if such breach is related solely to such Program, or (y) either on a Program-by-Program basis or to the Agreement in its entirety at the discretion of the Non-Breaching Party if such breach is not related solely to a Program.

(c) Termination if Novartis Challenges Incyte IP. If Novartis or any of its Affiliates, directly or indirectly, (i) initiates or requests an interference or opposition proceeding with respect to any Incyte Patent Right, (ii) makes, files or maintains any claim, demand, lawsuit, or cause of action to challenge the validity or enforceability of any Incyte Patent Right in a tribunal or forum, or (iii) opposes any extension of, or the grant of a supplementary protection certificate with respect to, any Incyte Patent Right, Incyte shall have the right to terminate this

Agreement upon [***] written notice to Novartis. Any such termination shall only become effective if Novartis or its Affiliate, as applicable, has not withdrawn such action before the end of the above notice period.

(d) Termination if Novartis Abandons Program. If Incyte believes that Novartis has Abandoned either the JAK Program or the c-MET Program, Incyte may deliver written notice to Novartis setting out in reasonable detail the basis for Incyte’s belief. Novartis shall have [***] from receipt of such notice to take such steps as would be considered reasonably likely to result in Novartis not being deemed to have Abandoned such Program within a reasonable period following such actions. If Novartis fails to take such action and fails to dispute the facts giving rise to such notice within such [***] period, then Incyte may within [***] following the expiration of such [***] period elect to terminate such Program by providing Novartis written notice of such termination, such termination to be effective immediately and otherwise effected in accordance with Section 9.3(a).

(e) Termination Disputes. If a Party gives notice of termination under this Section 9.2(b) or 9.2(d), and the other Party disputes whether such notice was proper, then the issue of whether or not this Agreement was properly terminated shall be resolved in accordance with ARTICLE XIII, and the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until such dispute is resolved. If as a result of such dispute resolution process it is determined that the notice of termination was proper, then such termination shall be deemed to be effective on the date on which such notice was first provided. On the other hand, if as a result of the dispute resolution process it is determined that the notice of termination was improper, then no termination shall have occurred and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

9.3 Effects Of Termination.

Nothing in this Section 12.6 shall require the alteration, modification, deletion or destruction of archival tapes or other electronic back-up media made in the ordinary course of business; provided that the Receiving Party shall continue to be bound by its obligations of

-74-

confidentiality and other obligations under this ARTICLE XII with respect to any Confidential Information contained in such archival tapes or other electronic back-up media. Any requested destruction of Confidential Information shall be certified in writing to the Disclosing Party by an authorized officer of the Receiving Party supervising such destruction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Receiving Party’s legal counsel may retain one copy of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information solely for the purpose of determining the Receiving Party’s continuing obligations under this ARTICLE XII and (ii) the Receiving Party may retain the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and its own notes, reports and other documents (A) to the extent reasonably required (i) to exercise the rights and licenses of the Receiving Party expressly surviving expiration or termination of this Agreement; (ii) to perform the obligations of the Receiving Party expressly surviving expiration or termination of this Agreement; or (B) to the extent it is impracticable to do so without incurring disproportionate cost.

Any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement that is not subject to Section 3.5, shall be settled, if possible, through good faith negotiations between the Parties. If the Parties are unable to settle such dispute within [***], and a Party wishes to pursue the matter, the matter may be referred by either Party to the Executive Officers, who shall meet to attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith. Such resolution, if any, of a referred issue shall be final and binding on the Parties. All negotiations pursuant to this Section 13.1 are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.

MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 Governing Law. This Agreement (and any claims or disputes arising out of or related thereto or to the transactions contemplated thereby or to the inducement of any party to enter therein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct, or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall in all respects be governed by and

-75-

construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, in each case without reference to any conflict of law rules that might lead to the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

14.2 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of the Transaction. Each Party agrees to commence any such action, suit or proceeding either in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or if such suit, action or other proceeding may not be brought in such court for jurisdictional reasons, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County. Each Party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such Party’s respective address set forth in Section 14.6 shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in New York or Delaware with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 14.2. Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement in (i) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or (ii) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and hereby and thereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(a) Neither Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that without prior written consent of the other Party (A) Novartis may make such assignment to a Novartis Group Member, (B) Incyte may make such assignment to an Incyte Group Member, and (C) either Party may make such assignment to a Third Party to whom a Party is required to, or reasonably believes that it will be required to, divest any Novartis IP or Incyte IP, as the case may be, to the extent necessary to comply with Law or the order of any governmental authority as a result of such transaction (so long as in each such case such Party shall remain jointly and severally liable with such assignee with respect to all obligations so assigned). Any request for consent to assignment shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any purported assignment in contravention of this Section 14.3 shall, at the option of the non-assigning Party, be null and void and of no effect. No assignment shall release either Party from responsibility for the performance of any accrued obligation of such Party hereunder. This Agreement shall be binding upon and enforceable against the successor to or any permitted assignee from either of the Parties.

(b) Each Party agrees that, notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary:

(i) either Party may assign this Agreement and the rights, obligations and licenses granted hereunder to a Third Party in connection with a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assigning Party’s business to which this Agreement relates or if a Party merges or consolidates with a Third Party.

[***] Confidential material redacted and filed separately with the Commission.

(ii) in the event that this Agreement is assigned by either Party in connection with a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assigning Party’s business to which this Agreement relates, such assignment shall not provide (A) the non-assigning Party with rights or access to Intellectual Property Rights of the assignee or acquirer of such Party, nor (B) the assignee or acquirer with rights or access to Intellectual Property Rights of the non-assigning Party.

Novartis shall have the right, by providing written notice within [***] following any such notice of Change of Control, to elect to terminate any or all of Incyte’s rights under, or delete, in whole or in part, from this Agreement: Sections [***] and [***].

For the avoidance of doubt, Novartis shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to make the elections provided for in this Section 14.4(a) upon each occurrence of a Change of Control.

(b) In the event of any Change of Control of Novartis, Novartis shall notify Incyte promptly, but in no event later than [***] following such Change of Control.

(d) In the event that any Group Company of a Party enters into an agreement with any Person pursuant to which a Change of Control would occur upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by such agreement, then during the period between entry into such agreement and the occurrence of the related Change of Control, the Party not entering into such agreement may elect to suspend the sharing of information and conduct of meetings

Incyte Announces Major Collaboration and License Agreement for
Two Hematology-Oncology Programs

Novartis to Develop and Commercialize Incyte’s Lead JAK1/JAK2 Inhibitor, INCB18424, for Territories Outside the US and Incyte’s cMET inhibitor, INCB28060, Worldwide

Incyte May Receive Over $1 Billion in Payments, including $150 Million Upfront Plus an Immediate $60 Million Development Milestone in Addition to Future Potential Milestones and Royalties

WILMINGTON, DE, November 25, 2009 -- Incyte Corporation (NASDAQ: INCY) announced today that it has entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Novartis for two of its investigational hematology-oncology therapies: INCB18424, an oral JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor that is in Phase III development for myelofibrosis, a serious life-threatening neoplastic condition characterized by varying degrees of bone marrow failure, splenic enlargement and debilitating constitutional symptoms, and INCB28060, an oral cMET inhibitor that is about to enter Phase I development as a potential treatment for multiple cancers.

Paul A. Friedman, Incyte’s president and CEO, stated, “This agreement reflects our objective to retain US rights to INCB18424 and puts us in a strong position to transition Incyte into a successful commercial company with sufficient resources to continue to advance other promising compounds in our pipeline. Additionally, the appreciation from Novartis for INCB18424’s potential to treat the unmet patient need in myelofibrosis and other cancers, and their proven success in rapidly commercializing new targeted oncology treatments, were determining factors in our decision to choose Novartis as our collaborative partner.”

Under the terms of the agreement, Incyte will retain exclusive rights for the development and potential commercialization of INCB18424 in the US. Novartis will have responsibility for the future development and commercialization of INCB18424 in all hematology–oncology indications outside of the US. Novartis will also be responsible for the future worldwide development of INCB28060.

Novartis will make an upfront payment of $150 million to Incyte plus an immediate $60 million milestone payment for the initiation of the European Phase III trial of INCB18424, COMFORT-II, that began in July of this year. Novartis will receive ex-US commercialization rights for Incyte’s lead JAK inhibitor and global commercialization rights for the cMET inhibitor. Each company will be responsible for costs in their respective territories for the JAK inhibitor, with costs of collaborative studies shared

-1-

equally. Incyte may also be eligible over time for additional payments of up to approximately $1.1 billion if future contingent development and commercialization milestones are achieved. Incyte is also eligible to receive tiered, double-digit royalty payments on future ex-US INCB18424 sales. Novartis will be responsible for all costs and activities for the cMET inhibitor after the Phase I clinical trial. Incyte is eligible to receive royalties on future sales of INCB28060 and has retained an option to co-develop and co-promote INCB28060.

About Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPNs)

MPNs are a related group of hematological neoplasms characterized by dysfunction of the bone marrow resulting in either over production of blood cells or ineffective hematopoiesis leading to production of blood cells in the spleen and resulting in massive splenomegaly. The three main MPNs are polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET) and myelofibrosis (MF). Approximately 10 to 20% of patients with PV and ET progress to MF and MF can also develop without a prior history of PV or ET. There are no adequately effective therapies to treat these disorders.

About INCB18424

INCB18424 is Incyte's lead internally developed JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor that has shown positive clinical activity in a number of hematology and inflammatory conditions. The compound is currently in Phase III for patients with MF and Phase II for patients with advanced PV and ET. Incyte has retained rights to develop a topical formulation of INCB18424 which has demonstrated positive clinical results in a recently completed Phase IIb trial in patients with mild to moderate psoriasis.

About INCB28060

cMET is a validated target with significant potential in multiple major oncology indications. INCB28060 is a potent cMET inhibitor that has demonstrated favorable pharmacologic activity in relevant cell and animal models and has demonstrated in those models that it can be dosed safely to achieve levels of cMET inhibition that are associated with tumor regression in multiple solid tumors. The investigational new drug application has been cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration.

About Incyte

Incyte Corporation is a Wilmington, Delaware-based drug discovery and development company focused on developing proprietary small molecule drugs for oncology, inflammation and diabetes. Incyte’s most advanced compound, INCB18424, is in Phase III development for myelofibrosis. For additional information on Incyte, visit the Company's web site at www.incyte.com.

Forward-Looking Statements

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters set forth in this press release, including statements with respect to the potential to receive up to approximately $1.1 billion in future contingent milestone payments, plans and timing for

Novartis gains rights to two oral targeted investigational therapies focusing on patients with life-threatening blood disorders and cancers

 Ex-US rights acquired for JAK inhibitor INCB18424 in Phase III development as first-in-class treatment for myelofibrosis, a life-threatening blood disorder

 Global rights acquired for early-stage cMET inhibitor INCB28060 targeting tumor invasion and drug resistance in certain cancers including gastric, kidney and lung

 Novartis to make payments of USD 150 million upfront and first milestone of USD 60 million; Incyte eligible for milestone payments and royalties on future sales

Basel, November 25, 2009 — Novartis has gained exclusive rights to two oral targeted investigational therapies for patients with a range of life-threatening blood disorders and cancers that currently do not have effective treatment options.

Under a licensing agreement with Incyte Corporation, Novartis will have responsibility for the future development of Incyte’s investigational JAK inhibitor outside the US and for future development of an early-stage cMET inhibitor globally.

 The lead compound is a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor with the investigational name INCB18424. This oral targeted therapy is in Phase III clinical trials for the treatment of myelofibrosis, a life-threatening neoplastic condition with no effective medical treatment 1 that is characterized by varying degrees of bone marrow failure, splenomegaly (enlarged spleen) and debilitating symptoms. INCB18424 has the potential of becoming a first-in-class therapeutic agent for the treatment of this and other hematologic diseases.

 The second compound covered in the licensing agreement, a mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor kinase (cMET) inhibitor with the investigational name INCB28060, is entering Phase I development. Compounds in this class are envisioned to become effective cancer therapies through their ability to block molecular signals leading to tumor cell angiogenesis, proliferation, survival, invasion and metastasis. Multiple cancers have shown to be dependent on activation of molecular signals by genetic alterations of the cMET gene 2. Emerging evidence indicates that cMET inhibition may be useful in the treatment of certain cancers, including gastric and kidney cancer 2, and may help to overcome resistance to some targeted therapies, such as gefitinib in non-small cell lung cancer 3.

"A key Novartis priority is to bring innovative medicines to patients as quickly as possible,” said David Epstein, President and CEO, Novartis Oncology and Novartis Molecular Diagnostics. “This agreement leverages these two promising investigational drugs with Novartis Oncology’s global development and commercialization expertise and our wide range of multi-targeted approaches to cancer treatment.”

-4-

Terms of the agreement

Novartis will make an upfront payment of USD 150 million to Incyte and a first milestone payment of USD 60 million for initiation of the European Phase III trial of the JAK inhibitor INCB18424 that began in July of this year. The agreement covers ex-US commercialization rights for the JAK inhibitor and global commercialization rights for the cMET inhibitor INCB28060. Each company will be responsible for costs in their respective territories for the JAK inhibitor, with costs of collaborative studies shared equally. Novartis will be responsible for all costs and activities for the cMET inhibitor after the Phase I clinical trial. After the first milestone, Incyte will be eligible for additional payments based on achieving defined development and commercialization milestones and to receive royalties on future sales. Incyte also has an option to co-promote the cMET inhibitor in the US and to participate in the cMET inhibitor’s global development.

16 APPENDIX 1 - Definitions and Abbreviations

16.1 Definitions

16.1.1 “Spontaneous Reports” from Patient Support Programs or Marketing Research Programs includes all Adverse Reactions reported from any program designed to encourage the HCP or consumer to voluntarily contact the company for educational material or support. Any program which does not systematically include any questions that request safety information in response.

16.1.2 “Solicited Reports” from Patient Support Programs or Marketing Research Programs includes all Adverse Reactions reported from a program where targeted safety questions are systematically included (in either the script or contact form).

16.1.3 “Adverse Drug Reaction” means all noxious and unintended responses to a medicinal product related to any dose. The ‘responses to a medicinal product’ means that a causal relationship between a medicinal product and an adverse event is at least a reasonable possibility.

16.1.4 “Adverse Event” means any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.

16.1.5 “Causally Suspected Adverse Event” means an Adverse Event (experience) for which a causal relationship between a medicinal product and itself is at least a reasonable possibility. In general, all SRs are considered suspected for expediting purposes.

16.1.6 “Causally Non-suspected Adverse Event” means an Adverse Event (experience) for which a causal relationship between a medicinal product and itself is not a reasonable possibility. In general, all SRs are considered “suspected” for expediting purposes.

16.1.7 “Collaboration Agreement” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 1 of this Pharmacovigilance Agreement.

16.1.8 “Company Core Safety Information” means all relevant safety information contained in the Company Core Data Sheet prepared by the Marketing Authorisation Holder and which the Marketing Authorisation Holder requires to be listed in all countries where the company markets the drug, except when the local regulatory authority specifically requires a modification.

16.1.9 “Expected Adverse Event” means an adverse event (experience), the specificity or severity of which is consistent with the Investigator’s Brochure for an unapproved investigational product.

16.1.10 “International Birthdate” means the date of the first marketing authorisation for the drug or product granted in any country.

16.1.11 “Investigator’s Brochure” means a compilation of the clinical and non-clinical data about an investigational drug or product that is relevant to its study in humans.

16.1.12 “Investigator Notification” or “IN” means a notification for all participating investigators of any Serious Adverse Event (experience) which is unexpected and suspected or any findings that suggest a significant risk for the patient.

Novartis | Confidential | Page 14
Pharmacovigilance Agreement for c-MET and JAK Licensed Products

16.1.13 “Labelled Adverse Event” means any Adverse Event (experience), the specificity or severity of which is consistent with the local package insert for an approved product.

16.1.14 “Life-threatening Adverse Event” means an Adverse Event (experience) that places the patient or subject in the view of the Investigator, at immediate risk of death from the event (experience) as it occurred, i.e. does not include an Adverse Event (experience) that, had it occurred in a more serious form, might have caused death. “Life-threatening Serious Adverse Event” shall have the corresponding meaning in relation to Serious Adverse Events.

16.1.15 “Listed” means any Adverse Event (experience), the specificity or severity of which is consistent with the Company Core Safety Information.

16.1.16 “Party” means one of the parties set forth in the heading to this Pharmacovigilance Agreement, and “Parties” means both parties.

16.1.19 “Regulatory Authority Authorisation” means an approval granted by a Regulatory Authority to conduct a clinical trial (e.g. IND) or to market a product (NDA) in a particular country.

16.1.20 “Serious Adverse Event” means any untoward medical occurrence that at, any dose:
(a) results in death;
(b) is life-threatening;
(c) requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization;
(d) results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; or
(e) is a congenital anomaly/birth defect.
In the case of other significant events, medical and scientific judgment should be exercised in deciding whether expedited reporting is appropriate. Such events may be important medical events that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but which may jeopardize the patient or may require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed in the definition above. Such events should usually be considered Serious Adverse Events.

16.1.21 “Spontaneous Adverse Event Report” means any Adverse Event (experience) spontaneously reported by health professionals, consumers, Health Authorities or other regulatory bodies, scientific papers, poison centres, pharmacovigilance institutes, lawyers, or any other source

16.1.22 “Study Protocol” means a document that describes the objective(s), design, methodology, statistical considerations, and organization of a trial. The protocol usually also gives the background and rationale for the trial. This term includes all amendments to the protocol.

16.1.23 “Unexpected Adverse Event” means an adverse event (experience), the specificity or severity of which is not consistent with the Investigator’s Brochure for an unapproved investigational product.

16.1.24 “Unlabelled” means any Adverse Event (experience), the specificity or severity of which is not consistent with the local package insert for an approved product.
