Company context

ImmunityBio, Inc. is a biotechnology company focused on innovating, developing, and commercializing next-generation immunotherapies designed to activate the patient’s immune system and deliver durable protection against cancer and infectious diseases. Our approach harnesses both the adaptive and innate immune systems with the goal of restoring immune function and generating lasting immunological memory in patients. At the core of our strategy is the Cancer BioShield™ platform, which is designed to stimulate critical lymphocytes, including natural killer (NK) cells, cytotoxic T cells, and memory T cells via our proprietary IL-15 superagonist. Our Cancer BioShield platform is anchored by this antibody-cytokine fusion protein and is complemented by an investigational portfolio that includes adenovirus-vectored vaccines, allogeneic (off-the-shelf) and autologous NK-cell therapies, and additional immunomodulators intended to promote immunogenic cell death and support durable immune responses while potentially reducing reliance on high-dose chemo-radiation therapy. For more information, visit ImmunityBio.com and connect with us on X (Twitter), Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Pursuant to the Agreement, JBL will manufacture and exclusively supply Tokyo-172 strain of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (“BCG”) (the “Product”) to ImmunityBio for use in the United States and its territories (the “Territory”), pursuant to the terms and subject to the limitations set forth in the Agreement. JBL will manufacture and supply the Product to ImmunityBio, and ImmunityBio will be solely responsible for all development activities, including preclinical studies and clinical trials, as well as obtaining and maintaining all regulatory approvals required to market and sell the Product in the Territory. The Agreement grants ImmunityBio exclusive rights to purchase, import, sell and distribute Product in the Territory for an initial term of ten (10) years from the date of FDA approval of the Product. The Agreement also provides ImmunityBio with a right of first negotiation to obtain rights to develop and commercialize the Product in jurisdictions outside the Territory (excluding certain Asian regions including Japan) following the commencement of commercial production.

Following FDA approval, ImmunityBio has committed to purchase at least 2 batches of Product per year. ImmunityBio shall use commercially reasonable efforts to launch and commercialize the Product in the Territory upon obtaining FDA approval. The Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, indemnification, and confidentiality provisions.
