4.2    Option Exercise. AbbVie may, in its sole discretion, exercise the Option at any time prior to the expiration of the Option Exercise Period, subject to Section 4.3 (HSR), by providing written notice of such to Licensor (“Option Exercise Notice”). Promptly following the Option Exercise Data Package Trigger Event, Licensor shall provide AbbVie with the Option Exercise Data Package, an updated disclosure schedule with respect to Licensor’s representations and warranties, to be set forth on Schedule 4.2 (Option Exercise

Following AbbVie’s receipt of the Option Exercise Data Package until the expiration of the Option Exercise Period, AbbVie shall have the opportunity to review and inspect the Option Exercise Data Package, request access to all Information generated in the performance of the activities set forth in the Development Plan (which Licensor shall provide to AbbVie as soon as possible following such request), and to ask questions of and receive timely answers from Licensor related thereto; provided, however, that Licensor shall not be obligated to provide access to any Information that would (A) result in the loss of the protection of any attorney-client privilege held by Licensor or (B) violate any Applicable Law. If, during the Option Exercise Period, AbbVie provides written notice to Licensor that it does not believe the Option Exercise Data Package provided contains the required information then (a) the Option Exercise Period shall be tolled, (b) Licensor shall provide to AbbVie an updated Option Exercise Data Package containing the required information as promptly as practicable, and (c) the Option Exercise Period shall commence following the date of delivery of the updated Option Exercise Data Package containing the required information; provided that if Licensor in good faith believes that the Option Exercise Data Package is complete after the first extension, then the dispute shall be [†].

If HSR Filings are required, each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file its respective HSR Filing as promptly as is practicable and advisable, with the goal of filing the HSR Filings within [†] after Licensor receiving the Option Exercise Notice for the Option or promptly thereafter. In connection with obtaining HSR Clearance, each of

AbbVie and Licensor shall (a) cooperate with each other in connection with any investigation or other inquiry relating to an HSR Filing and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (b) keep the other Party or its counsel informed of any material communication received from or given to the FTC or DOJ relating to the HSR Filings and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and provide a copy to the other Party if such material communication is in writing); and (c) permit the other Party or its counsel to review in advance, and in good faith consider the views of the other Party or its counsel concerning, any submission, filing or communication (and documents submitted therewith) intended to be given to the FTC or DOJ.

4.3.4    Tolling of Obligations.

4.4    Effects of Option Exercise. Effective upon the Option Effective Date:

4.4.1    License Grants to AbbVie. Licensor hereby grants, and shall cause its Affiliates (subject to Section 13.4 (Assignment)) to grant, to AbbVie an exclusive license (including with regard to Licensor and its Affiliates except with respect to the retained rights set forth in Section 4.5 (Post-Option Licensor Development Activities)), with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers, under the Licensor Patents, the Licensor Know-How and the interest of Licensor and its Affiliates in the Joint Know-How and Joint Patents to Exploit the Licensed Compound and Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory.

4.4.2    Transfer of Regulatory Documentation. As of the Option Effective Date, Licensor hereby assigns to AbbVie all of its rights, title and interests in and to all Existing Regulatory Documentation (including any existing Regulatory Approvals). Licensor shall duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such instruments and shall do and cause to be done such acts and things, including the filing of such assignments, agreements, documents and instruments, as may be necessary under, or as AbbVie may reasonably request in connection with, or to carry out more effectively the purpose of, or to better assure and confirm unto AbbVie its rights under, this Section 4.4.2 (Transfer of Regulatory Documentation). Without limiting the foregoing, Licensor shall, within [†] of the Option Effective Date, provide to AbbVie, in such form and format as AbbVie may reasonably request, (a) copies of all material correspondence to and from any Regulatory Authority that relates to the Licensed Compound or Licensed Products, and (b) all Regulatory Documentation assigned to AbbVie pursuant to this Section 4.4.2 (Transfer of Regulatory Documentation).

4.4.3    Right of Reference. Licensor hereby grants to AbbVie, its Affiliates and sublicensees, an exclusive license and right of reference (including with regard to Licensor and its Affiliates), with the right to grant sublicenses and further rights of reference through multiple tiers, under all Regulatory Approvals and any other Regulatory Documentation that Licensor or its Affiliates may Control with respect to the Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products as necessary or useful for purposes of Exploiting the Licensed Compound and Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory.

4.6    Sublicenses. AbbVie shall have the right to grant sublicenses (or further rights of reference), through multiple tiers of sublicensees, under the licenses and rights of reference granted to AbbVie under Section 4.4.1 (License Grants to AbbVie) to its Affiliates and other Persons; provided that any such sublicenses shall be consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Within [†] following the grant of any such sublicenses other than sublicenses that are with Third Party subcontractors performing activities hereunder on behalf of AbbVie or its Affiliate or are non-exclusive sublicenses in the normal course of business that do not grant commercialization rights to the Sublicensee, AbbVie shall notify Licensor of the grant of such sublicense, which notice shall include [†]. Each Sublicensee shall be bound by a written sublicense agreement with AbbVie (each, a “Sublicense Agreement”). AbbVie shall remain responsible for the performance of all of its obligations under this Agreement, whether or not delegated to or performed by a Sublicensee, including payment of all amounts owed to Licensor pursuant to this Agreement in connection with activities of a Sublicensee, regardless of whether the terms of any Sublicense Agreement provide for such amount to be paid by the Sublicensee directly to Licensor.

4.7    Sublicense Survival. As of and following the Option Effective Date, upon termination of this Agreement for any reason other than by AbbVie pursuant to Section 12.3 (Termination Right by AbbVie for Convenience), upon the request of any Sublicensee of AbbVie, Licensor shall enter into a direct license with such Sublicensee on, subject to this Section 4.7 (Sublicense Survival), the same terms as this Agreement, taking into account any differences in license scope, territory and duration of the sublicense grant (each a “New License Agreement”), provided that such Sublicensee is not at the time of such termination in breach of its Sublicense Agreement with AbbVie. Under any such New License Agreement between Licensor and such former Sublicensee, such former Sublicensee shall be required to [†] pursuant to this Agreement on account of such former Sublicensee’s Development or Commercialization of Licensed Products [†]. Under such New License Agreement, Licensor shall not be bound by any grant of rights broader than, and shall not be required to perform any obligation other than those rights and obligations contained in this Agreement, and all applicable rights of Licensor set forth in this Agreement shall be included in such New License Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensor shall not be obligated to enter into a New License Agreement with a Sublicensee of AbbVie unless such Sublicensee notifies Licensor within [†] after such termination of this Agreement that it wishes to enter into a New License Agreement.

4.8    In‑License Agreements.

4.8.1    In-License Agreements Prior to Option Exercise. If Licensor or its Affiliate enters into an agreement with a Third Party prior to the Option Effective Date under which Licensor or its Affiliate obtains a license or rights to Patents or know-how that are necessary or useful for the Exploitation of any Licensed Compound or Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory, then Licensor shall inform AbbVie of any such Third Party agreement and shall provide AbbVie with a copy of such license, sublicense or other agreement (“Proposed In-Licensed Rights”) promptly following execution of such agreement but in no event later than the submission of the Option Exercise Data Package. Following the Option Effective Date, AbbVie shall notify Licensor within [†] of such exercise as to whether it wishes to be bound by or assume the rights and obligations of the Proposed In-Licensed Rights as they apply to AbbVie and this Agreement; provided that, as between the Parties, [†]. If AbbVie wishes to be so bound, then (a) the Proposed In-Licensed Rights shall automatically be included in the Licensor Know‑How and Licensor Patents (as applicable) hereunder; (b) [†],

AbbVie agrees to abide by all applicable terms and conditions of such license, sublicense or other agreement, as it relates to AbbVie and this Agreement; and (c) such license, sublicense or other agreement shall be an “In-License Agreement” hereunder. Otherwise, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Proposed In-Licensed Rights shall not be included within the Licensor Know‑How or Licensor Patents and such license, sublicense or other agreement shall not be an “In-License Agreement” hereunder. For clarity, neither Licensor nor its Affiliate shall, with respect to any Proposed In-Licensed Rights, before the earlier of (i) the conclusion of the Option Exercise Period without the exercise of the Option by AbbVie or (ii) the conclusion of the [†] period following the Option Effective Date without AbbVie notifying Licensor that it wishes to be bound by or assume the rights and obligations of the Proposed In-Licensed Rights pursuant to this Section 4.8.1 (In-License Agreements Prior to Option Exercise), take any action that would put conditions on, restrict or otherwise diminish such Proposed In-Licensed Rights disclosed to AbbVie hereunder.

4.8.2    Procedure for In-License Agreements Following Option Exercise. Following the Option Effective Date, if Licensor or its Affiliate is planning to enter into an agreement with a Third Party under which Licensor or its Affiliate obtains a license or rights to Patents or know-how that are necessary or useful for the Exploitation of the Licensed Compound or Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory, then Licensor shall provide AbbVie with written notice thereof. Within [†] of receipt of such notice by AbbVie, AbbVie may request that the Parties discuss whether it would be preferable and practicable for AbbVie to obtain a license or rights to such Patents or know-how for the Exploitation of the Licensed Compound or Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory within a scope consistent with AbbVie’s exclusive license hereunder and upon such request by AbbVie, the Parties shall discuss such possibility in good faith and use reasonable efforts to reach agreement. If the Parties disagree as to whether AbbVie should obtain such rights, Licensor shall have the final decision-making authority as to how to proceed; provided that Licensor shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent to AbbVie obtaining such rights and the Parties acknowledge and agree that [†].

4.8.3    In-License Agreements Following Option Exercise. Following the Option Effective Date, if Licensor or any of its Affiliates becomes a party to a license, sublicense or other agreement for additional rights, with the right to sublicense, that are necessary or useful for the Exploitation of the Licensed Compound or Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory as permitted under Section 4.8.2 (Procedure for In-License Agreements Following Option Exercise), then Licensor shall inform AbbVie and shall provide AbbVie with a copy of the Proposed In-Licensed Rights. If AbbVie notifies Licensor in writing that it wishes to be bound by or assume the rights and obligations of the Proposed In-Licensed Rights as they apply to AbbVie and this Agreement, then (a) the Proposed In-Licensed Rights shall automatically be included in the Licensor Know‑How and Licensor Patents (as applicable) hereunder, provided that, if such inclusion results in any payment obligation due to such Third Party, [†] ; (b) AbbVie agrees to abide by all applicable terms and conditions of such license, sublicense or other agreement, as it relates to AbbVie and this Agreement; and (c) such license, sublicense or other agreement shall be an “In-License Agreement” hereunder. Otherwise, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Proposed In-Licensed Rights shall not be included within the Licensor Know‑How or Licensor Patents and such license, sublicense or other agreement shall not be an “In-License Agreement” hereunder.

4.9    No Implied Licenses. No Party shall be deemed by estoppel or implication to have granted to the other Party any other licenses or right with respect to any intellectual property that are not expressly granted herein.

5.1    Technology Transfer. Promptly following the Option Effective Date, but in no event later than [†] thereafter, Licensor shall, at its sole cost and expense, use reasonable good faith efforts to disclose and transfer to AbbVie or its designee, in whatever form AbbVie may reasonably request, all Licensor Know-How. Thereafter during the Term, Licensor shall, at its sole cost and expense, disclose and make available to AbbVie or its designee, in whatever form AbbVie may reasonably request, any additional Licensor Know-How that has not been previously transferred to AbbVie and is necessary or useful for AbbVie to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from time to time at AbbVie’s reasonable request, [†], Licensor shall make available its qualified scientific and technical personnel on a reasonable basis to consult with AbbVie as necessary for Licensor to transfer the Licensor Know-How to AbbVie and thereby enable the Development and Commercialization of the Licensed Product as contemplated by this Agreement.

5.2    Development.

5.2.1    General. Following the Option Effective Date, subject to the terms of this Agreement, AbbVie (itself or through its Affiliates, Sublicensees or Third Party Providers) shall have sole authority over the Development of the Licensed Compound and Licensed Products. At AbbVie’s request, Licensor shall provide reasonable assistance to AbbVie in connection with such Development, including by providing AbbVie with any Licensor Know-How and materials Controlled by Licensor that would be necessary or useful for such activities.

5.2.2    Reporting.

(a)    from and after the date on which a Licensed Product is sold in a particular country or other jurisdiction in the Territory and is both (i) not covered by a Valid Claim of a Licensor Patent described in clause (a) of Section 1.149 (“Royalty Term”) and (ii) not subject to Regulatory Exclusivity in such country or other jurisdiction, the royalty rate for such Licensed Product with respect to such country or other jurisdiction shall be reduced by [†] from the applicable rate(s) set forth in Section 6.6.1 (Royalty Rates) (as adjusted by Section 6.6.3(c) (Reductions)); and

(b)    in the event that in any country or other jurisdiction in the Territory during the Royalty Term for a Licensed Product, but following the expiration, invalidation, revocation, cancellation, dedication to the public, disclaimer or abandonment date of the last Licensor Patent that includes a Valid Claim claiming the Licensed Compound contained in such Licensed Product in such country or other jurisdiction, if the unit volume of all Biosimilar Products in such country or other jurisdiction in a Calendar Quarter equals or exceeds [†] of the sum of unit volume of such Licensed Product and all Biosimilar Products in such country or other jurisdiction, (i) Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country or other jurisdiction shall [†], and (ii) any payments owed by AbbVie with respect to such Licensed Product under Section 6.6.1 (Royalty Rates) shall be reduced by [†] for [†] for such Licensed Product in such country or other jurisdiction;

(c)    [†], in the event that AbbVie enters into an agreement with a Third Party in order to obtain a license or right under a Patent or intellectual property right owned or controlled by such Third Party in a particular country or other jurisdiction pursuant to Section 7.6 (Third Party Licenses and Patents), AbbVie shall be entitled to deduct from any royalties payable hereunder with respect to such country or other jurisdiction [†] of all royalties and other amounts paid to such Third Party in respect of such agreement (“Third Party Payments”); and

(d)    AbbVie shall have the right to [†].

6.6.4    Mechanics of Adjustments to Royalties. [†], any reductions set forth in Section 6.6.3 (Reductions) shall be applied in [†]; provided that, [†], the adjustments made pursuant to Section 6.6.3(a) and Section 6.6.3(b) (Reductions) collectively shall not reduce by more than [†] the royalties that would

otherwise be owed under Section 6.6.1 (Royalty Rates) as reduced by Section 6.6.3(c) (Reductions) and all aggregate reductions under Section 6.6.3 (Reductions) shall not reduce the royalties that would otherwise be owed under Section 6.6.1 (Royalty Rates) by more than [†]. For clarity, any reductions to be taken from royalties under Section 6.6.3(c) (Reductions), including [†], or under Section 6.6.3(d) (Reductions) that are not able to be deducted in a Calendar Quarter due to the royalty floor in this Section 6.6.4 (Mechanics of Adjustments to Royalties) [†] shall be carried over to subsequent Calendar Quarters and applied against the royalties due with respect to such subsequent Calendar Quarters until the reduction has been taken in full. Any adjustments pursuant to Section 6.6.3 (Reductions) shall apply only to the relevant Licensed Product in the relevant country or other jurisdiction in the Territory and shall be allocated [†].

6.7    Royalty Payments and Reports. AbbVie shall calculate all amounts payable to Licensor pursuant to Section 6.6 (Royalties) at the end of each Calendar Quarter, which amounts shall be converted to Dollars, in accordance with Section 6.8 (Mode of Payments; Offsets).

6.9    Withholding Taxes.

6.9.1    Where any sum due to be paid to either Party hereunder is subject to any withholding or similar tax, the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to do all such acts and things and to sign all such documents as shall enable them to take advantage of any applicable double taxation agreement or treaty. In the event there is no applicable double taxation agreement or treaty, or if an applicable double taxation agreement or treaty reduces but does not eliminate such withholding or similar tax, the payor shall remit such withholding or similar tax to the appropriate government authority, deduct the amount paid from the amount due to payee and secure and send to payee the best available evidence of the payment of such withholding or similar tax. Any such amounts deducted by the payor in respect of such withholding or similar tax shall be treated as having been paid by the payor for purposes of this Agreement. In the event that a government authority retroactively determines that a payment made by a Party to the other Party pursuant to this Agreement should have been subject to withholding or similar (or to additional withholding or similar) taxes, and such Party (the “Withholding Party”) remits such withholding or similar taxes to the government authority, including any interest and penalties that may be imposed thereon (together with the tax paid, the “Withholding Amount”), the Withholding Party shall have the right (a) to offset the Withholding Amount against future payment obligations of the Withholding Party under this Agreement, (b) to invoice the other Party for the Withholding Amount (which shall be payable by the other Party within [†] of its receipt of such invoice) or (c) to pursue reimbursement by any other available remedy.

6.9.2    If AbbVie (or AbbVie’s Affiliates or successors) is required to make a payment to Licensor subject to a deduction or withholding of tax, as described in Section 6.9.1 (Withholding Taxes), then [†], then notwithstanding Section 6.9.1 (Withholding Taxes), the payment by AbbVie [†] following the filing of the tax return or other report in which such deduction or withholding is made.

6.10    Indirect Taxes. All payments are exclusive of value added taxes, sales taxes, consumption taxes and other similar taxes (the “Indirect Taxes”). If any Indirect Taxes are chargeable in respect of any payments, the paying Party shall pay such Indirect Taxes at the applicable rate in respect of such payments following receipt, where applicable, of an Indirect Taxes invoice in the appropriate form issued by the receiving Party in respect of those payments. The Parties shall issue invoices for all amounts payable under this Agreement consistent with Indirect Tax requirements and irrespective of whether the sums may be netted for settlement purposes. If the Indirect Taxes originally paid or otherwise borne by the paying Party are in whole or in part subsequently determined not to have been chargeable, necessary steps shall be taken by the receiving Party to receive a refund of these undue Indirect Taxes from the applicable governmental authority or other fiscal authority and any amount of undue Indirect Taxes repaid by such authority to the receiving Party shall be transferred to the paying Party within [†] of receipt.

6.11    Interest on Late Payments. If any payment due to either Party under this Agreement is not paid when due, then such paying Party shall pay interest thereon (before and after any judgment) at an annual rate (but with interest accruing on a daily basis) of [†], such interest to run from the date on which payment of such sum became due until payment thereof in full together with such interest; provided, however, that if the [†] is unavailable, then such interest shall be at an annual rate of [†], as adjusted from time to time on the first New York Business Day of each month.

6.12    Audit. AbbVie shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, keep complete books and records pertaining to Net Sales of Licensed Products in sufficient detail to calculate all amounts payable hereunder. Such books and records shall be retained by AbbVie and its Affiliates until the later of (a) [†] after the end of the period to which such books and records pertain, and (b) the expiration of the applicable tax statute of limitations (or any extensions thereof), or for such longer period as may be required by Applicable Law. At the request of Licensor, AbbVie shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, permit an independent public accounting firm of nationally recognized standing designated by Licensor and reasonably acceptable to AbbVie, at reasonable times during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to audit the books and records maintained pursuant to this Section 6.12 (Audit) to ensure the accuracy of all reports and payments made hereunder. Such examinations may not (i) be conducted for any Calendar Quarter more than [†] after the end of such Calendar Quarter, (ii) be conducted more than once in any [†] period or (iii) be repeated for any Calendar Quarter. The accounting firm shall disclose only whether the reports are correct or not, and the specific details concerning any discrepancies. No other information shall be shared. Except as provided below, the cost of any audit hereunder shall be borne by Licensor, unless an audit reveals a variance of more than the greater of [†] from the reported amounts [†], in which case AbbVie shall bear the cost of such audit. Unless disputed pursuant to Section 6.13 (Audit Dispute) below, if an audit concludes that (x) additional amounts were owed by AbbVie, AbbVie shall pay the additional amounts with interest from the date originally due as provided in Section 6.11 (Interest on Late Payments), or (y) excess payments were made by AbbVie, Licensor shall reimburse such excess payments, in either case ((x) or (y)), within [†] after the date on which such audit is completed by Licensor.

6.13    Audit Dispute. In the event of a dispute with respect to any audit under Section 6.12 (Audit), Licensor and AbbVie shall work in good faith to resolve such dispute. If the Parties are unable to reach a mutually acceptable resolution of such dispute within [†], such dispute shall be submitted for resolution to a

certified public accounting firm jointly selected by each Party’s certified public accountants or to such other Person as the Parties shall mutually agree (the “Audit Arbitrator”). The decision of the Audit Arbitrator shall be final and the costs of such arbitration as well as the initial audit shall be [†]. Not later than [†] after such decision and in accordance with such decision, the audited Party shall pay any additional amounts with interest from the date originally due as provided in Section 6.11 (Interest on Late Payments), or the auditing Party shall reimburse any excess payments, as applicable.

6.14    Confidentiality. The receiving Party shall treat all information subject to review under this ARTICLE 6 (Payments and Records) in accordance with the confidentiality provisions of ARTICLE 9 (Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure) and the Parties shall cause the Audit Arbitrator to enter into a reasonably acceptable confidentiality agreement with the audited Party obligating such firm to retain all such information in confidence pursuant to such confidentiality agreement.

6.15    No Other Compensation. Each Party hereby agrees that the terms of this Agreement fully define all consideration, compensation and benefits, monetary or otherwise, to be paid, granted or delivered by a Party to the other Party in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. Neither Party previously has paid or entered into any other commitment to pay, whether orally or in writing, any of the other Party’s employees, directly or indirectly, any consideration, compensation or benefits, monetary or otherwise, in connection with the transaction contemplated herein.

6.16    No Limitation. Nothing contained in this ARTICLE 6 (Payments and Records) shall in any way limit either Party’s right to indemnification under this Agreement or to otherwise recover damages for breach of this Agreement.

Failure to respond within such [†] shall be deemed approval to publish or present. If approval is not given or deemed given, either Party may refer the matter to the JGC for resolution together with the reasons for withholding approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the publishing or presenting Party shall comply with the other Party’s request to delete references to the other Party’s Confidential Information in any paper, abstract or materials and shall withhold publication of any such paper, abstract or materials or any presentation of same for an additional [†] in order to permit the Parties to obtain Patent protection if either Party deems it necessary.

(a)    the breach by AbbVie or its Affiliates of this Agreement;

(b)    the negligence, reckless conduct or willful misconduct on the part of AbbVie or its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents in performing its or their obligations under this Agreement;

(c)    the Development, Manufacture or other Exploitation of the Licensed Compound or Licensed Products by AbbVie or its Affiliates or Sublicensees anywhere in the world following the Option Effective Date; and

except, in the case of clauses (a) through (c) above, for those Losses for which Licensor, in whole or in part, has an obligation to indemnify AbbVie pursuant to Section 11.2 (Indemnification of AbbVie) hereof, as to which Losses each Party shall indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for such Losses.

11.2    Indemnification of AbbVie. Licensor shall indemnify AbbVie, its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (the “AbbVie Indemnitees”) and defend and save each of them harmless from and against any and all Losses in connection with any and all Third Party Claims incurred by or rendered against the AbbVie Indemnitees arising from or occurring as a result of:

(a)    the breach by Licensor or its Affiliates of this Agreement;

(b)    the negligence, reckless conduct or willful misconduct on the part of Licensor or its Affiliates or its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents in performing its obligations under this Agreement;

except, in the case of clauses (a) through (d) above, for those Losses for which AbbVie, in whole or in part, has an obligation to indemnify Licensor pursuant to Section 11.1 (Indemnification of Licensor) hereof, as to which Losses each Party shall indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for the Losses.

11.3    Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims in respect of a Party, its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall be made solely by such Party to this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”). The Indemnified Party shall give the indemnifying Party prompt written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) of any Losses or discovery of fact upon which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under this ARTICLE 11 (Indemnity), provided that any delay in providing such notice shall not constitute a waiver or release of, or otherwise limit, the Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification, except to the extent that such delay materially prejudices the indemnifying Party’s ability to defend against the relevant claims. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of the Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss is known at such time). The Indemnified Party shall furnish promptly to the indemnifying Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses and Third Party Claims.

11.4    Control of Defense.

11.4.1    In General. Subject to the provisions of Sections 7.4 (Infringement Claims by Third Parties), 7.5 (Invalidity or Unenforceability Defenses or Actions) and 7.7 (Product Trademarks), at its option, the indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within [†] after the indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. The assumption of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the indemnifying Party shall not be construed as an

acknowledgment that the indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of such Third Party Claim, nor shall it constitute a waiver by the indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of such Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the indemnifying Party which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. In the event the indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall immediately deliver to the indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim. Should the indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, except as provided in Section 11.4.2 (Right to Participate in Defense), the indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim unless specifically requested in writing by the indemnifying Party. In the event that it is ultimately determined that the indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the indemnifying Party for any Losses incurred by the indemnifying Party in its defense of such Third Party Claim.

11.4.2    Right to Participate in Defense. Without limiting Section 11.4.1 (In General), any Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided that such employment shall be at the Indemnified Party’s own expense unless (a) the employment thereof, and the assumption by the indemnifying Party of such expense, has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying Party in writing, (b) the indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 11.4.1 (In General) (in which case the Indemnified Party shall control the defense), or (c) the interests of the Indemnified Party and the indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both Parties under Applicable Law, ethical rules or equitable principles.

11.4.3    Settlement. With respect to any Losses relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that shall not result in the Indemnified Party’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affecting the business of the Indemnified Party in any manner, and as to which the indemnifying Party shall have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder, the indemnifying Party shall have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 11.4.1 (In General), the indemnifying Party shall have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss; provided that it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If the indemnifying Party does not assume and conduct the defense of a Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party may defend against such Third Party Claim.

EXCEPT (A) FOR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, (B) FOR A PARTY’S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER ARTICLE 9 (CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-DISCLOSURE) [†], (C) AS PROVIDED UNDER SECTION 13.11 (EQUITABLE RELIEF) AND (D) TO THE EXTENT ANY SUCH DAMAGES ARE REQUIRED TO BE PAID TO A THIRD PARTY AS PART OF A CLAIM FOR WHICH A PARTY PROVIDES INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS ARTICLE 11 (INDEMNITY), NEITHER PARTY NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, BREACH OF STATUTORY DUTY OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THE USE OF THE LICENSED COMPOUND OR LICENSED PRODUCT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

11.6    Insurance. Each Party shall obtain and carry in full force and effect the minimum insurance requirements set forth herein from an insurance company properly licensed to provide the required insurance. Such insurance (a) shall be primary insurance with respect to each Party’s own participation under this Agreement, (b) shall be issued by a recognized insurer [†], or an insurer pre-approved in writing by the other Party, and (c) shall list the other Party as an additional insured under the General Liability Insurance.

12.2    Termination for Material Breach.

12.2.1    Material Breach. If a Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) believes that the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) has materially breached one (1) or more of its material obligations under this Agreement, then the Non-Breaching Party may deliver notice of such material breach to the Breaching Party (a “Default Notice”). If the Breaching Party does not dispute that it has committed a material breach of one (1) or more of its material obligations under this Agreement, then if the Breaching Party fails to cure such material breach, or fails to take steps as would be considered reasonable to effectively cure such material breach, within ninety (90) days after receipt of the Default Notice, or if such compliance cannot be fully achieved within such ninety (90)-day period and the Breaching Party has failed to commence compliance or has failed to use diligent efforts to achieve full compliance as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, the Non-Breaching Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the Breaching Party. If the Breaching Party disputes that it has materially breached this Agreement, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 13.7 (Dispute Resolution), and if the Breaching Party is determined to be in material breach (a “Breach Determination”), then if the Breaching Party fails to complete the actions specified by the Breach Determination to cure such material breach within ninety (90) days after such ruling, or if such compliance cannot be fully achieved within such ninety (90) day period and the Breaching Party has failed to commence compliance or has failed to use diligent efforts to achieve full compliance as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, then the Non-Breaching Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the Breaching Party.

12.2.2    Material Breach Related to Diligence in a Major Market. Notwithstanding Section 12.2 (Material Breach), if a material breach and failure to cure contemplated by Section 12.2 (Material Breach) is with respect to AbbVie’s diligence obligations under Section 5.7 (AbbVie Diligence) with respect to any Major Market but not all Major Markets, Licensor shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety, but shall have the right to terminate this Agreement solely with respect to such Major Market(s). If such material breach is as to all Major Markets, then such material breach shall be deemed a material breach as to this Agreement taken as a whole.

12.3    Termination Right by AbbVie For Convenience. AbbVie may terminate this Agreement in its entirety, or on a country-by-country or other jurisdiction-by-other jurisdiction basis, for any or no reason, upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to Licensor.

12.4    Termination for Insolvency. In the event that either Party (a) files for protection under bankruptcy or insolvency laws, (b) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (c) appoints or suffers appointment of a receiver or trustee over substantially all of its property that is not discharged within [†] after such filing, (d) proposes a written agreement of composition or extension of its debts, (e) proposes or is a party to any dissolution or liquidation, (f) files a petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency act or has any such petition filed against it that is not discharged within [†] of the filing thereof, or (g) admits in writing its inability generally to meet its obligations as they fall due in the general course, then the other Party may terminate this Agreement in its entirety effective immediately upon written notice to such Party.

12.5    Rights in Bankruptcy.

12.5.1    Applicability of 11 U.S.C. § 365(n). All rights and licenses (collectively, the “Intellectual Property”) granted under or pursuant to this Agreement, including all rights and licenses to use improvements or enhancements developed during the Term, are intended to be, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction, licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101(35A) of the Bankruptcy Code.  The Parties agree that the licensee of such Intellectual Property under this Agreement shall retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction.  All of the rights granted to either Party under this Agreement shall be deemed to exist immediately before the occurrence of any bankruptcy case in which the other Party is the debtor.

12.5.2    Rights of non-Debtor Party in Bankruptcy. If a bankruptcy proceeding is commenced by or against either Party under the Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction, the non-debtor Party shall be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any Intellectual Property and all embodiments of such Intellectual Property, which, if not already in the non-debtor Party’s possession, shall be delivered to the non-debtor Party within [†] of such request; provided that the debtor Party is excused from its obligation to deliver the Intellectual Property to the extent the debtor Party continues to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement and the Agreement has not been rejected pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provision in any other country or jurisdiction.

12.6    Termination for Failure or Delay to Obtain HSR Clearance. This Agreement shall terminate (a) upon notice given by AbbVie to Licensor in the event that either Party receives a second request for additional information under the HSR Act (a “Second Request”) and AbbVie delivers such notice of termination within ten (10) Business Days after becoming aware of the Second Request or such notice, as the case may be, or (b) upon notice given by AbbVie to Licensor in the event that the Option Effective Date has not occurred within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date on which the HSR Filing is made and such Party delivers notice of termination within ten (10) Business Days after the end of such one hundred eighty (180)‑day period.

12.7    AbbVie Rights in Lieu of Termination. If, at any time during the Term, AbbVie has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.2.1 (Material Breach) (subject to Licensor’s rights to dispute any such breach claim therein and, if Licensor does exercise such dispute rights, effective only upon

a Breach Determination) or Section 12.4 (Termination for Insolvency), then AbbVie may, by written notice to Licensor, in lieu of such termination right, instead elect to continue this Agreement as modified by this Section 12.6 (AbbVie Rights in Lieu of Termination), in which case:

12.7.1    If such termination right arises prior the completion of the activities under the then-current Development Plan, AbbVie shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, by written notice delivered to Licensor, to conduct any activities allocated to Licensor under such Development Plan and all such activities under such plan shall be deemed to be allocated to AbbVie for the purposes of this Agreement. Licensor shall reimburse AbbVie for all out-of-pocket costs incurred by AbbVie in the conduct of such activities, up to the amounts budgeted therefor in the Initial Development Plan, and, in the event that as of the time of such termination right arising, the Option has not been exercised under this Agreement, Licensor’s obligations under Section 5.1 (Technology Transfer) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, as if AbbVie had exercised the Option as of the date of such notice;

12.7.2    In the event that AbbVie delivers notice to Licensor of its exercise of the right to conduct activities allocated to Licensor under the Development Plan prior to the Option Effective Date, Licensor hereby grants, and shall cause its Affiliates to grant, to AbbVie an exclusive license (including with regard to Licensor and its Affiliates), with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers, under the Licensor Patents, the Licensor Know-How and the interest of Licensor and its Affiliates in the Joint Know-How and Joint Patents to conduct activities allocated to AbbVie under the Development Plan;

12.7.3    AbbVie shall have the right, at AbbVie’s sole election, to disband the JGC and terminate the activities of the JGC and thereafter undertake all activities assigned by this Agreement to the JGC solely and exclusively by itself;

12.7.4    if AbbVie has such right to terminate prior to the Option Effective Date, the Option shall remain in effect, but the Option Exercise Fee shall be reduced by an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Option Exercise Fee;

12.7.5    if (a) AbbVie has such right to terminate prior to the Option Effective Date, the amount of any milestone payment payable by AbbVie to Licensor under Section 6.2 (Development Milestone by Licensor), Section 6.3 (Development Milestone by AbbVie) or Section 6.5 (Sales-Based Milestones) for any milestone event achieved after AbbVie has such right to terminate shall be reduced by fifty percent (50%) of the applicable amount set forth in Section 6.2 (Development Milestone by Licensor), Section 6.3 (Development Milestone by AbbVie) or Section 6.5 (Sales-Based Milestones), as applicable, or (b) if AbbVie has such right to terminate after the Option Effective Date, the amount of any milestone payment payable by AbbVie to Licensor under Section 6.2 (Development Milestone by Licensor), Section 6.3 (Development Milestone by AbbVie) or Section 6.5 (Sales-Based Milestones) for any milestone event achieved after AbbVie has such right to terminate shall be reduced by twenty-five percent (25%) of the applicable amount set forth in Section 6.2 (Development Milestone by Licensor), Section 6.3 (Development Milestone by AbbVie) or Section 6.5 (Sales-Based Milestones), as applicable;

12.7.6    AbbVie’s diligence obligations under Section 5.7 (AbbVie Diligence) shall terminate; and

12.7.7    all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without change.

12.8    Termination in Entirety.

12.8.1    In the event of a termination of this Agreement in its entirety by AbbVie pursuant to Section 12.3 (Termination Right by AbbVie For Convenience) or Section 12.6 (Termination for Failure or Delay to Obtain HSR Clearance), or Licensor pursuant to Section 12.2 (Material Breach) or 12.4 (Termination for Insolvency):

(a)    all rights and licenses, including the Option, if unexercised, granted by Licensor hereunder shall immediately terminate;

(b)    all rights and licenses granted by AbbVie hereunder shall immediately terminate; and

(c)    at Licensor’s request, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon the terms pursuant to which (i) AbbVie would [†]; (ii) AbbVie would assign to Licensor any of AbbVie’s rights in and to [†]; and (iii) AbbVie would provide and assign to Licensor or its designee any [†].

12.8.2    In the event of a termination of this Agreement in its entirety by AbbVie pursuant to Section 12.2 (Material Breach) or 12.4 (Termination for Insolvency), all rights and licenses granted by either Party hereunder shall immediately terminate.

12.9    Termination of Terminated Territory. In the event of a termination of this Agreement with respect to a country or other jurisdiction by AbbVie pursuant to Section 12.3 (Termination Right by AbbVie For Convenience) or with respect to a Terminated Territory by Licensor pursuant to Section 12.2.2 (Material Breach Related to Diligence in a Major Market) (but not in the case of any termination of this Agreement in its entirety):

12.9.1    all rights and licenses granted by Licensor hereunder (a) shall automatically be deemed to be amended to exclude, if applicable and subject to Section 12.9.1(b) (Termination of Terminated Territory), the right to Develop, market, promote, detail, distribute, import, sell, offer for sale, file any Drug Approval Application for or seek any Regulatory Approval for the terminated Licensed Products in such country or other jurisdiction or Terminated Territory, as applicable, and (b) shall otherwise survive and continue in effect in such country or other jurisdiction or Terminated Territory, as applicable, solely for the purpose of furthering any Exploitation of the Licensed Products in the Territory excluding the Terminated Territory; and

12.9.2    at Licensor’s request, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon the terms pursuant to which AbbVie [†], as applicable, solely to [†], as applicable.

12.10    Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, termination of this Agreement (either in its entirety or with respect to one (1) or more country(ies) or other jurisdiction(s)) in accordance with the provisions hereof shall not limit remedies that may otherwise be available in law or equity.

12.11    Accrued Rights; Surviving Obligations.

12.11.1    Termination or expiration of this Agreement (either in its entirety or with respect to one (1) or more country(ies) or other jurisdiction(s)) for any reason shall be without prejudice to any rights that shall have accrued to the benefit of a Party prior to such termination or expiration. Such termination or expiration shall not relieve a Party from obligations that are expressly indicated to survive the termination

or expiration of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Sections 2.1.7 (Records), 4.7 (Sublicense Survival), 4.9 (No Implied License), 6.14 (Confidentiality), 6.15 (No Other Compensation), 6.16 (No Limitation), 7.1.2 (Ownership of Joint Patents and Joint Know-How), 7.2.3 (Maintenance and Prosecution of Joint Patents), 7.2.4 (Cooperation) (solely to the extent such provision relates to Joint Patents), 7.2.7 (UPC Opt-Out and Opt-In) (solely to the extent such provision relates to Joint Patents), 7.3.2 (Enforcement of Joint Patents), 7.3.5 (Recovery) (solely to the extent such provision relates to Joint Patents), 7.5.2 (Joint Patents), 7.5.3 (Cooperation) (solely to the extent such provision relates to Joint Patents), 7.11 (Common Interest), 10.3 (Disclaimer of Warranties), 12.5 (Rights in Bankruptcy), 12.8 (Termination in Entirety), 12.9 (Termination of Terminated Territory), 12.10 (Remedies), 12.11 (Accrued Rights; Surviving Obligations) and ARTICLE 1 (Definitions), ARTICLE 8 (Data Privacy and Security), ARTICLE 9 (Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure), ARTICLE 11 (Indemnity) and ARTICLE 13 (Miscellaneous) shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. If this Agreement is terminated with respect to a country, other jurisdiction or a Terminated Territory but not in its entirety, then following such termination, the foregoing provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to such country, other jurisdiction or Terminated Territory, as applicable, (to the extent they would survive and apply in the event the Agreement expires or is terminated in its entirety) and all provisions not surviving in accordance with the foregoing shall terminate upon termination of this Agreement with respect to such country, other jurisdiction or Terminated Territory and be of no further force and effect (and, for purposes of clarity, all provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to all countries in the Territory other than such country, other jurisdiction or Terminated Territory).

12.11.2    Notwithstanding the termination of AbbVie’s licenses and other rights under this Agreement or with respect to a particular Major Market or country or other jurisdiction, as the case may be, to the extent a Licensed Product has obtained Regulatory Approval as of such time, AbbVie shall have the right for [†] after the effective date of such termination with respect to each Major Market or country or other jurisdiction with respect to which such termination applies to sell or otherwise dispose of all Licensed Compound or Licensed Product then in its inventory and any in-progress inventory, in each case that is intended for sale or disposition in such Major Market or country or other jurisdiction, as though this Agreement had not terminated with respect to such Major Market or country or other jurisdiction, and such sale or disposition shall not constitute infringement of Licensor’s or its Affiliates’ Patent or other intellectual property or other proprietary rights. For purposes of clarity, AbbVie shall continue to make payments thereon as provided in ARTICLE 6 (Payments and Records) (as if this Agreement had not terminated with respect to such Major Market or country or other jurisdiction).

13.1    Subcontracting. Licensor shall have the right to subcontract any of its activities under this Agreement to an Affiliate of Licensor or a Third Party (a “Third Party Provider”) with AbbVie’s prior written consent; provided that Licensor shall have such right to subcontract to any of the approved Third Party Providers set forth on Schedule 13.1 (Approved Third Party Providers) without AbbVie’s prior written consent. AbbVie shall have the right to subcontract any of its activities under this Agreement to an Affiliate of AbbVie or a Third Party Provider; provided that AbbVie furnishes Licensor with advanced written notice thereof and an opportunity to consult regarding such subcontract, which notice shall specify the work to be subcontracted. Each Party shall obtain a written undertaking from any Affiliate or Third Party Provider to which such Party is subcontracting any of such Party’s activities under this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.1 (Subcontracting) that such Affiliate or Third Party Provider, as applicable, shall be subject to the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the confidentiality provisions of ARTICLE 9 (Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure). Any act or omission by such Affiliate or Third Party Provider that would be a breach of this Agreement if

conducted or made by the subcontracting Party shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement by the subcontracting Party. As between the Parties, the subcontracting Party shall be responsible for the effective and timely management of and payment of such Affiliate or Third Party Provider. The engagement of such Affiliate or Third Party Provider in compliance with this Section 13.1 (Subcontracting) shall not relieve the subcontracting Party of its obligations under this Agreement. The subcontracting Party shall be solely responsible for any taxes, including income, withholding, payroll, VAT, sales tax or the like that arise from the use of such Affiliate or Third Party Provider, in each case, subject to Section 6.9 (Withholding Taxes) and Section 6.10 (Indirect Taxes).

13.2    Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party or be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement when such failure or delay is caused by or results from events beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing Party, including fires, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, embargoes, shortages, epidemics, quarantines, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), terrorist acts, insurrections, riots, civil commotion, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances (whether involving the workforce of the non-performing Party or of any other Person), acts of God or acts, omissions or delays in acting by any governmental authority (except to the extent such delay results from the breach by the non-performing Party or any of its Affiliates of any term or condition of this Agreement). The non-performing Party shall notify the other Party of such force majeure within [†] after such occurrence by giving written notice to the other Party stating the nature of the event, its anticipated duration and any action being taken to avoid or minimize its effect. The suspension of performance by the non-performing Party shall be of no greater scope and no longer duration than is necessary and the non-performing Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remedy its inability to perform. If a Party’s performance of its obligations is delayed by an event or condition under this Section 13.2 (Force Majeure) for more than [†], then the Parties shall discuss in good faith the modification of the Parties’ obligations under this Agreement in order to mitigate such delay caused by such event or condition.

13.3    Export Control. This Agreement is made subject to any restrictions concerning the export of products or technical information from the United States or other countries that may be imposed on the Parties from time to time. Each Party agrees that it shall not export, directly or indirectly, any technical information acquired from the other Party under this Agreement or any products using such technical information to a location or in a manner that at the time of export requires an export license or other governmental approval, without first obtaining the written consent to do so from the appropriate agency or other governmental entity in accordance with Applicable Law.

13.4    Assignment. Without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, neither Party shall sell, transfer, assign, delegate, pledge or otherwise dispose of, whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, this Agreement or any of its rights or duties hereunder; provided that (a) at any time during the Term, AbbVie may make such an assignment without Licensor’s consent to its Affiliate or to a successor, whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale of assets, or any other transaction, of the business to which this Agreement relates and (b) at any time during the Term, Licensor may make such an assignment without AbbVie’s consent to its Affiliate or to a successor, whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale of assets, or any other transaction, of the business to which this Agreement relates. With respect to an assignment to an Affiliate, the assigning Party shall remain responsible for the performance by such Affiliate of the assigning Party’s rights and obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control of a Party or if a Party assigns this Agreement to its successor (whether by way of merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to which this Agreement relates), the intellectual property or tangible property rights of the

Person that is the acquirer in such Change in Control or such successor that (i) exists immediately prior to such Change in Control or assignment or (ii) is developed or acquired thereafter, in each case ((i)-(ii)), [†], shall not be subject to and shall be automatically excluded from the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the rights licensed to the other Party under this Agreement. Any attempted assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 13.4 (Assignment) shall be void and of no effect. All validly assigned and delegated rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by and against the successors and permitted assigns of Licensor or AbbVie, as the case may be. The permitted assignee or transferee shall assume all obligations of its assignor or transferor under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the grant of rights set forth in this Agreement shall be binding upon any successor or permitted assignee of Licensor, and the obligations of AbbVie, including the payment obligations, shall run in favor of any such successor or permitted assignee of Licensor’s benefits under this Agreement.

13.5    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law, and if the rights or obligations of either Party under this Agreement shall not be materially and adversely affected thereby, (a) such provision shall be fully severable, (b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom, and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and reasonably acceptable to the Parties. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Party hereby waives any provision of law that would render any provision hereof illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect.

13.6    Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Service.

13.6.1    Governing Law. This Agreement or the performance, enforcement, breach or termination hereof shall be interpreted, governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction; provided that all questions concerning (a) inventorship of Patents under this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with Section 7.1.3 (United States Law) and (b) the construction or effect of Patents shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the country or other jurisdiction in which the particular Patent has been filed or granted, as the case may be. The Parties agree to exclude the application to this Agreement of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

13.6.2    Service. Each Party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail to its address set forth in Section 13.8.2 (Address for Notice) shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought against it under this Agreement in any court.

13.7    Dispute Resolution. Except for disputes resolved by the procedures set forth in Section 3.1.5 (Dispute Resolution), 6.13 (Audit Dispute) or 13.11 (Equitable Relief), any dispute arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith (a “Dispute”), it shall be resolved pursuant to this Section 13.7 (Dispute Resolution).

13.7.1    General. Any Dispute shall first be referred to the Senior Officers of the Parties, who shall confer in good faith on the resolution of such Dispute. Any final decision mutually agreed

to by the Senior Officers shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties. If the Senior Officers are not able to agree on the resolution of any such Dispute within [†] (or such other period of time as mutually agreed by the Senior Officers) after such Dispute was first referred to them, then, except as otherwise set forth in Section 13.7.2 (Intellectual Property Right Disputes), the Dispute shall be finally resolved through arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth on Schedule 13.7.1 (ADR Procedures).

13.7.2    Intellectual Property Right Disputes. In the event that a Dispute arises with respect the validity, patentability, scope, enforceability, inventorship or ownership of any Patent, Trademark or other intellectual property right, and such Dispute cannot be resolved in accordance with Section 13.7.1 (General), unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, such Dispute shall not be submitted to an ADR proceeding in accordance with Schedule 13.7.1 (ADR Procedures) and instead, either Party may initiate litigation or proceeding in a court or governmental agency of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding Section 13.6 (Governing Law; Jurisdiction and Service), in any country or other jurisdiction in which such right applies. In case of a Dispute between the Parties with respect to inventorship, the Parties may, upon mutual agreement, jointly select a patent attorney registered before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and submit such Dispute to the mutually-selected patent attorney for resolution under the United States patent law, and the decision of such patent attorney with respect to inventorship shall be final and bind both Parties, and the Parties shall share equally the expenses of such patent attorney.

13.7.3    Adverse Ruling. Any determination pursuant to this Section 13.7 (Dispute Resolution) that a Party is in material breach of its material obligations hereunder shall specify a (nonexclusive) set of actions to be taken to cure such material breach, if feasible.

13.7.4    Interim Relief and Tolling. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Section 13.7 (Dispute Resolution) shall preclude either Party from seeking interim or provisional relief, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable relief concerning a Dispute if necessary to protect the interests of such Party. This Section 13.7.4 (Interim Relief and Tolling) shall be specifically enforceable.

13.8    Notices.

13.8.1    Notice Requirements. Any notice, request, demand, waiver, consent, approval or other communication permitted or required under this Agreement shall be in writing, shall refer specifically to this Agreement and shall be deemed given only if (a) delivered by hand, (b) sent by facsimile transmission (with transmission confirmed), or (c) by internationally recognized overnight delivery service that maintains records of delivery, addressed to the Parties at their respective addresses specified in Section 13.8.2 (Address for Notice) or to such other address as the Party to whom notice is to be given may have provided to the other Party in accordance with this Section 13.8.1 (Notice Requirements). Such notice shall be deemed to have been given as of the date delivered by hand or transmitted by facsimile (with transmission confirmed) or on the second Business Day (at the place of delivery) after deposit with an internationally recognized overnight delivery service. Any notice delivered by facsimile shall be confirmed by a hard copy delivered as soon as practicable thereafter.

Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions set forth in Section 2.4 (Exclusivity) and ARTICLE 7 (Intellectual Property Rights) and ARTICLE 9 (Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure) are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the other Party and that such other Party would not have entered into this Agreement in the absence of such restrictions, and that any breach or threatened breach of any provision of such Section or Articles may result in irreparable injury to such

other Party for which there shall be no adequate remedy at law. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision of such Section or Articles, the non-breaching Party shall be authorized and entitled to seek from any court of competent jurisdiction injunctive relief, whether preliminary or permanent, specific performance and an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising from such breach, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which such non-breaching Party may be entitled in law or equity. Both Parties agree to waive any requirement that the other Party (a) post a bond or other security as a condition for obtaining any such relief, and (b) show irreparable harm, balancing of harms, consideration of the public interest or inadequacy of monetary damages as a remedy. Nothing in this Section 13.11 (Equitable Relief) is intended, or should be construed, to limit either Party’s right to equitable relief or any other remedy for a breach of any other provision of this Agreement.

13.12    Waiver and Non-Exclusion of Remedies. Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition. The waiver by either Party hereto of any right hereunder or of the failure to perform or of a breach by the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by such other Party whether of a similar nature or otherwise. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and do not exclude any other right or remedy provided by Applicable Law or otherwise available except as expressly set forth herein.

13.13    No Benefit to Third Parties. Except as provided in ARTICLE 11 (Indemnity), covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the Parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns, and they shall not be construed as conferring any rights on any other Persons.

13.14    Further Assurance. Each Party shall duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts and things, including the filing of such assignments, agreements, documents and instruments, as may be necessary or as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with this Agreement or to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes hereof, or to better assure and confirm unto such other Party its rights and remedies under this Agreement.

13.15    Relationship of the Parties. It is expressly agreed that Licensor, on the one hand, and AbbVie, on the other hand, shall be independent contractors and that the relationship between the Parties shall not constitute a partnership, joint venture or agency, including for all tax purposes. Neither Licensor, on the one hand, nor AbbVie, on the other hand, shall have the authority to make any statements, representations or commitments of any kind, or to take any action, which shall be binding on the other, without the prior written consent of the other Party to do so. All persons employed by a Party shall be employees of such Party and not of the other Party and all costs and obligations incurred by reason of any such employment shall be for the account and expense of such Party.

13.16    Counterparts; Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one (1) and the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or electronically transmitted signatures and such signatures shall be deemed to bind each Party hereto as if they were original signatures.

13.17    References. Unless otherwise specified, (a) references in this Agreement to any Article, Section or Schedule shall mean references to such Article, Section or Schedule of this Agreement, (b) references in any Section to any clause are references to such clause of such Section, and (c) references to any agreement, instrument or other document in this Agreement refer to such agreement, instrument or other document as originally executed or, if subsequently amended, replaced or supplemented from time to time, as so amended, replaced or supplemented and in effect at the relevant time of reference thereto.

13.18    Schedules. In the event of any inconsistencies between this Agreement and any schedules or other attachments hereto, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

13.19    Construction. Except where the context otherwise requires, wherever used, the singular shall include the plural, the plural the singular, the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders and the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense (and/or). Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, unless otherwise specified, such number refers to calendar days. The captions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and in no way define, describe, extend or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or the intent of any provision contained in this Agreement. The term “including,” “include” or “includes” as used herein shall mean “including, but not limited to,” and shall not limit the generality of any description preceding such term. The language of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language mutually chosen by the Parties and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against either Party hereto. Each Party represents that it has been represented by legal counsel in connection with this Agreement and acknowledges that it has participated in the drafting hereof. In interpreting and applying the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Parties agree that no presumption shall apply against the Party which drafted such terms and provisions.
