4 criteria for genome editing technologies:
1. Precision: How close a nucleotide could be targeted in the genome?
2. Efficacy: What will be the percentage of cells with a gene editing?
3. Safety: How little does it cut elsewhere (off target effect)?
4. Vectorization: How well could it be vectorized?

" Scope: development of
UCART19 in B-cell malignancies
5 other candidates in solid tumors
" Responsibilities:
Cellectis will be responsible for the R&D of certain candidates through the end of clinical
phase I.
Servier may exercise an exclusive worldwide option for each candidate developed under
the agreement.
Upon exercising each option, Servier will be responsible for taking over clinical
development, registration and commercialization of each product.
" Financials:
Upfront payment of $10 million
Up to $140 million for each of the six candidates potentially developed, spread over
various milestones in the development and commercialization phases.
In addition, Cellectis will receive royalties on the sales of commercialized products.

12 Cellectis targets
" Exclusivity:
For 4 years, Cellectis will not enter into another preclinical CAR-T alliance in oncology
No exclusivity on each Cellectis product once IND filed
" Responsibilities:
Both companies work together on preclinical research for 15 Pfizer targets and 4 Cellectis targets (the
other 8 Cellectis targets are developed outside the alliance).
Each company is responsible and has all worldwide rights for clinical development and commercialization
of any product directed at its own targets.
Pfizer has right of first refusal on the products directed at the 4 Cellectis targets developed in the alliance.
" Financials:
Upfront payment of $80 million
Up to $185 million for each product targeting a Pfizer target potentially developed, spread over
various milestones in the development and commercialization phases.
In addition, Cellectis will receive royalties on the sales of commercialized products.
" Equity:
Pfizer purchased about 10% of Cellectis capital through newly issued shares at a price of !9.25 per
share.
