EXECUTION COPY
LICENSE AND COLLABORATION AGREEMENT
     This License and Collaboration Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of November 7, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Amicus Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Amicus”), and Shire Pharmaceuticals Ireland Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of Ireland (“Shire” and each of Amicus and Shire, a “Party”).
BACKGROUND
     A. Amicus has developed a platform for the treatment of human genetic diseases comprising the use of small molecule drugs, referred to as pharmacological chaperones, which selectively bind to an active site of a target protein, thereby enhancing the protein’s stability and ability to fold into the correct three-dimensional shape, to restore proper biological activity of the target protein. Amicus currently is conducting human clinical trials on three products containing such pharmacological chaperone compounds, which Amicus refers to as Plicera™, Amigal™ and AT2220.
     B. Shire is an established pharmaceutical company which focuses its experience and expertise in the development and commercialization of pharmaceutical products in select areas, including among them, human genetic disorders.
     C. Shire desires to acquire rights to the Licensed Products for commercialization outside the United States, and to collaborate with Amicus in the further Development of such Licensed Products, all on the terms and conditions set forth below in this Agreement.
     Now, therefore, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1
DEFINITIONS
     In addition to terms defined elsewhere in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the respective meanings set out below, and grammatical variations of such terms shall have corresponding meanings.
     1.1 “Affiliate” means, with respect to a Party, any person, corporation or other entity which, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such Party, as the case may be. As used in this Section 1.1, “control” shall mean: (a) direct or indirect beneficial ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) (or such lesser percentage which is the maximum allowed to be owned by a foreign corporation in a particular jurisdiction) of the voting stock or other ownership interest in such person, corporation or other entity; or (b) to possess, directly or indirectly, the power to affirmatively direct the management and

          2.1.4 the right to have the foregoing performed on its behalf by subcontractors in accordance with Section 4.4.
     Shire agrees that neither it, nor any of its Affiliates, shall (a) practice the Amicus IP other than as expressly authorized under this Article 2 if such actions would constitute an infringement or misappropriation thereof nor (b) Develop or Commercialize in the Amicus Territory a product containing a Compound, except as a Licensed Product in accordance with this Agreement.
     2.2 Sublicenses.
          2.2.1 Affiliates. Shire may grant to one or more of its Affiliates a Sublicense in connection with Shire’s Development, Manufacture and/or Commercialization of the Compounds and Licensed Products under this Agreement; provided that Shire shall remain responsible for the activities of such Affiliate to the same extent as if such activities were conducted by Shire.
          2.2.2 Third Parties.
               (a) Shire may also grant to Third Parties a Sublicense under the rights granted to Shire under Section 2.1 to one or more Licensed Products, to the extent not in conflict with Section 2.1 or this Section 2.2.2.
               (b) Notwithstanding Paragraph (a) above, Shire may grant a Sublicense under this Section 2.2.2 (i) only to a Third Party that is not a “competitor of Amicus” and (ii) in a country where Shire or an Affiliate of Shire has direct commercial operations in [***], only if Shire remains primarily responsible for conducting Commercialization activities in such country. For such purposes, a “competitor of Amicus” shall mean those companies listed on Appendix 3 or as appended thereto upon the written agreement of the Parties.
          2.2.3 Conditions of Sublicenses. If Shire grants a Sublicense under its rights in Section 2.1, such Sublicense shall be at least as protective of the Compounds and Licensed Products as the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Shire shall remain responsible for the performance of any of its Sublicensees under such rights, and shall remain responsible for any payments due hereunder with respect to activities of the Sublicensee. Shire shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to ensure that its Sublicensees perform at the same level as Shire is obligated to perform hereunder and do not engage in activities that would be harmful to the Licensed Products or the business related to the Licensed Products, and to take appropriate measures to remedy any failure of a Sublicensee to comply with the foregoing. It is understood and agreed that, except as may be otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, Sublicensees shall have no rights with respect to the Committees or with respect to the Development Plans, nor to exercise any provision of this Agreement other than the exercise of their rights pursuant to Section 2.1 above. Upon request, Shire shall provide to Amicus a copy of the Sublicense, provided that the agreement may be redacted to the extent not necessary for Amicus to understand the scope and terms of such Sublicense. For purposes of clarity, Shire shall have the right to redact all financial and other proprietary terms with

The Party providing such Know-How shall provide the same in electronic form to the extent the same exists in electronic form, and shall provide copies as reasonably requested or an opportunity for the other Party to inspect (and copy) all other materials comprising such Know-How (including, for example, original patient report forms and other original source data, to the extent allowable under Laws). Except as expressly provided, neither Party shall be obligated under this Section 2.3.2 (or other provisions requiring disclosure of Know-How hereunder) to provide to the other Party (a) any of the providing Party’s Confidential Information that does not relate to a Licensed Product within the Field, including competitive and marketing strategies generally applicable to the providing Party’s products or (b) any information regarding Commercialization except as necessary to Develop or Commercialize the Licensed Products.

Meetings may be held by audio or video teleconference with the consent of each Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that unless otherwise agreed at least two (2) of the meetings of each of the JSC and JDC per calendar year shall be held in person. Locations for meetings held in person shall alternate between Amicus’ facilities in Cranbury, New Jersey, and Shire’s facilities in Cambridge, Massachusetts, or at such other locations as the Parties may otherwise agree. A reasonable number of other employees of each Party involved in the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Licensed Products may attend Committee meetings as nonvoting participants with the approval of the respective Committee, and, with the consent of each Committee Co-Chair, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, a reasonable number of consultants, representatives or advisors involved in the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Licensed Products may attend Committee meetings as nonvoting observers, provided that such consultants, representatives and advisors are under obligations of confidentiality and non-use applicable to the Confidential Information of each Party that are at least as stringent as those set forth in Article 14. Each Party shall be responsible for all of its own expenses of participating in the JSC, JDC, JCC and any Special Committee.

Each Committee may act on a specific issue without a meeting if it is documented in a written consent signed by each of the Co-Chairs of the applicable Committee from each Party. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Committee shall have authority to amend, modify or waive compliance with this Agreement or the Related Agreements.

Such minutes will not be finalized until the Committee Co-Chair from each Party have reviewed and confirmed the accuracy of such minutes in writing. The Committee Co-Chairs will solicit agenda items from the members of the applicable Committee and provide an agenda along with appropriate information for such agenda reasonably in advance of each meeting. It is understood that such agenda will include all items requested by either Committee Co-chair for inclusion therein.
          3.5.5 Reports. In addition, subject to the foregoing, each Party shall keep the other Party (through the relevant Committees) informed of Development, Manufacturing and Commercialization activities pertaining to Licensed Products in the Field in the applicable Territory

          6.2.2 Right of First Refusal. Amicus hereby grants to Shire a right of first refusal to Develop and exclusively Commercialize one or more [***] for [***]’s in the Shire Territory as set forth below in this Section 6.2.2 (the “Right of First Refusal”).
               (a) Procedure. Prior to granting to a Third Party a license or other rights to Commercialize an [***] for [***]’s in the Shire Territory, Amicus shall so advise Shire in writing setting forth the terms and conditions under which Amicus would grant such rights (an “Offer”) and including a copy of the proposed definitive agreement to grant such rights to Shire (a “Right of First Refusal Notice”). [***] of the date of the Right of First Refusal Notice (the “RFR Acceptance Period”), Shire shall notify Amicus in writing whether Shire desires to enter into the transaction in the Right of First Refusal Notice in accordance with the terms set forth therein, together with a fully executed copy of the definitive agreement included in such Right of First Refusal Notice (a “RFR Acceptance”). In the event that Shire shall have failed to deliver a RFR Acceptance [***], then Shire shall be deemed to have waived its Right of First Refusal under this Section 6.2.2, and Amicus shall be free to execute and close on the Offer with a Third Party solely on the terms provided in the Right of First Refusal Notice (which for purposes of clarity shall mean the execution by a Third Party of the definitive agreement offered to Shire with such non-substantive changes as are necessary to substitute such Third Party for Shire); provided that if such definitive agreement is not consummated within [***] after the end of the RFR Acceptance Period, or if, during such [***] period Amicus proposes to grant to a Third Party rights to Commercialize an [***] for [***]’s on terms that are different than those set forth in the Offer (any terms different than those provided in the definitive agreement offered to Shire), Amicus shall be obligated to follow the procedures set forth in this Section 6.2.2 prior to granting to a Third Party any right or license to Commercialize an [***] for [***]’s.
               (b) No Implied Obligations. The only obligations of Amicus under this Section 6.2.2 and Section 6.2.1 above are as expressly stated therein, and there are no further implied obligations relating to the matters contemplated therein. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that (i) Amicus is not obligated to identify the Third Party(ies) to whom Amicus would

grant rights to [***] for [***]’s, (ii) modifications or improvements may be made to such [***] after the date of the Right of First Refusal Notice and (iii) a transfer of rights in connection with an assignment of this Agreement in accordance with Section 16.1 below shall not be subject to this Section 6.2.2, provided, that this Section 6.2.2 shall apply to such assignee.
               (c) Termination. Section 6.2.2 shall terminate for all purposes upon the first grant to a Third Party by Amicus of rights to Commercialize an [***] for [***]’s in accordance with this Section 6.2.2; and in any case this Section 6.2 (including both Sections 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 but not Section 6.2.1(e)) shall expire [***] after the First Commercial Sale of [***] (or, if earlier, another Licensed Product containing [***]) within the Field in a Primary Market country in the Shire Territory, after which time Amicus shall have no further obligation and Shire shall have no further rights under this Section 6.2.
     6.3 Related Products
          6.3.1 Related Product Notice. At least thirty (30) days prior to dosing the first patient in the first human clinical trial of a Related Product within the Field, Amicus shall notify Shire in writing, which notice shall include a copy of the IND submitted to the FDA or other applicable Regulatory Authority for such trial (a “Related Product Notice”), subject to Section 6.3.6. For purposes hereof, “Related Product” is defined as a small molecule that selectively binds to the active site of (a) a-galactosidase A for the treatment or prevention of Fabry Disease, (b) b-glucocerebrosidase for the treatment or prevention of Gaucher Disease, (c) a-glucosidase for the treatment or prevention of Pompe Disease or (d) to the extent the Parties agree pursuant to Section 6.1.5 to expand the Field for a Compound and agree to add an additional target for such Compound, such other target for such indication, and in each such case whose primary therapeutic activity results from such selective binding, provided, that the restrictions of this Section 6.3 shall not apply to [***] for [***]’s or a Licensed Product being Commercialized pursuant to this Agreement. Each of the enzymes referenced under clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 6.3.1 is referred to herein as a “Target.”
          6.3.2 Related Product Opt-In Right. Shire shall have the right, exercisable [***] after receiving the Related Product Notice (the “Related Product Opt-In Period”), to designate that (a) the active pharmaceutical ingredient of such Related Product shall be added as a Compound hereunder, (b) the formulation described in the IND included in the Related Product Notice shall be added as a Licensed Product hereunder and (c) the Field with respect to such Licensed Product shall be limited to the specific disease for which such Related Product is being developed (i.e., Gaucher Disease, Fabry Disease or Pompe Disease or such other indication as is then included in the Field under Section 6.1.5, as applicable) (the “Related Product Opt-In Right”).
          6.3.3 Exercise. To exercise the Related Product Opt-In Right with respect to a Related Product, Shire shall deliver written notice to Amicus of such exercise within the Related Product Opt-In Period for such Related Product, and shall promptly reimburse Amicus for [***] of the costs incurred by Amicus outside the Development Plans that are specifically attributable to the

Development of such Related Product prior to such exercise, determined in accordance with Section 6.5.4.
          6.3.4 Development Plan. Upon such timely exercise of the Related Product Opt-In Right, the JDC and JSC shall promptly establish a new Development Plan for such Related Product (i.e., as a Licensed Product).
          6.3.5 Milestone Payments and Royalties. Following exercise of the Related Product Opt-In Right, Shire shall pay to Amicus royalty payments under Section 7.3 with respect to such Related Product as a Licensed Product. In addition, Shire shall pay to Amicus an additional set of Milestone payments for such Related Product, in an amount equal to [***] of the amounts for the achievement of the same events as provided for the first Licensed Product Developed for the same Field under Section 7.2.1, provided, that such payments shall not be due until the first Regulatory Approval of the first Licensed Product for the same disease within the Field as that of such Related Product. For clarity, upon Regulatory Approval of the first Licensed Product in a particular Field, payments for Milestones (as provided in this Section) for a Related Product previously achieved shall be due to Amicus.
          6.3.6 Related Products to be Commercialized Solely in the Amicus Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Related Product Opt-In Right shall not apply with respect to a particular Related Product that Amicus elects to Commercialize solely in the Amicus Territory throughout the Term. Accordingly, if Amicus notifies Shire in writing that it has made the election not to Commercialize such Related Product in the Shire Territory, the Related Product Opt-In Right, and this Section 6.3, shall not apply to such Related Product; provided that if Amicus makes such election under this Section 6.3.6, Amicus shall not Commercialize such Related Product (for so long as the same remains a Related Product) in the Shire Territory prior to the end of the [***] period following Regulatory Approval in the Shire Territory of the first Licensed Product for such disease within the Field.
     6.4 Termination by JSC; Back-Up Compounds.  The JSC may, from time to time, terminate the Development of a Licensed Product for the Shire Territory or the Amicus Territory , in accordance with Section 6.4.1.
          6.4.1 Termination of Development in Shire Territory or Amicus Territory. If, at the request of a Party (the “Requesting Party”), the JSC determines that it is not commercially reasonable to continue to Develop and/or to Commercialize a Licensed Product in the Requesting Party’s Territory (regardless of whether it is commercially reasonable to do so in the other Party’s Territory), then such Licensed Product shall be terminated in the Requesting Party’s respective Territory (i.e., the Shire Territory if Shire is the Requesting Party and the Amicus Territory if Amicus is the Requesting Party). Upon such termination:
               (a) If such termination is with respect to the Amicus Territory only, then: (i) the Licensed Product that was the subject of such termination shall remain a Licensed Product for all purposes of this Agreement and shall not revert to Amicus by reason of such termination, and the

provisions of Sections 6.4.2 and 6.4.3 shall not apply with respect to such termination; (ii) Shire shall have the right to continue Developing and to Commercialize such Licensed Product as an Independent Project outside the Development Plans in the Shire Territory at its own expense (which costs shall not be shared under Section 7.4.1); (iii) Amicus’ obligations under Sections 4.1 and 4.2, and under the Development Plan for such Licensed Product (to the extent such Development Plan applies to such Licensed Product), shall terminate, subject to Amicus using Commercially Reasonable Efforts to transition any such Development activities that relate to Development and/or Commercialization of such Licensed Product in the Shire Territory to Shire; and (iv) Amicus’ obligation to supply such Licensed Product under Article 8 shall terminate on the second anniversary of such termination or such earlier date as Shire establishes an alternative source of supply for such Licensed Product, during which period Amicus shall cooperate reasonably to transition to Shire or its designee the Manufacture of such Licensed Product. In the event of termination for the Amicus Territory only under this Section 6.4.1(a), Amicus shall not Develop or Commercialize such Licensed Product or the Compound contained therein anywhere in the Territory during the remaining Term for so long as the same remains a Licensed Product; or
               (b) If such termination is with respect to the Shire Territory, then such Licensed Product shall cease to be a Licensed Product and the provisions of Sections 6.4.2, 6.4.3 and 6.4.4 shall apply (in which case such Licensed Product shall be deemed a Terminated Product), and Shire shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to transition any Development activities that relate to Commercialization of such Licensed Product in the Amicus Territory to Amicus. For clarity, Shire shall have no further obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Licensed Product under Sections 4.1 and 4.2, the Development Plan for such Licensed Product, and Article 5.
          6.4.2 Intentionally Omitted.
          6.4.3 Reversion.
               (a) In the event a Licensed Product ceases to be a Licensed Product pursuant to Section  6.4.1(b) or 7.2.5, or Section 15.3.2, (i) such Licensed Product shall be deemed a “Reverted Product” under Section 15.5.2, (ii) the Compound contained therein shall cease to be a Compound for all purposes of this Agreement to the extent no other Licensed Product containing such Compound is actively being Developed (including clinical Development) or Commercialized by Shire hereunder, (iii) Shire shall have no further rights under Section 4.3.2 with respect to clinical trials involving such Licensed Product, (iv) Amicus shall have no further obligations under Article 8 with respect to such Licensed Product, (v) Shire shall have no further prosecution, maintenance and enforcement rights under Sections 10.2 and 10.3 with respect to Patent Rights specifically directed to such Licensed Product, (vi) Shire shall have no further rights under Section 14.5 with respect to such Licensed Product, and (vii)  the provisions of Sections 15.5.2(a), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) shall then apply with respect to such Licensed Product as if this Agreement had terminated under Section 15.3.1. For clarity, Shire shall have no further obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Licensed Product under Sections 4.1 and 4.2, the Development Plan for such Licensed Product, and Article 5.

               (b) In addition, subject to subsection (iv) below, in the event of such reversion:
                    (i) with respect to Amigal, then Fabry Disease (plus any additional indication for DGJ included within the Field pursuant to Section 6.1.5) shall thereafter be excluded from the definition of Field; and the compounds and products described in Section 6.3.1(a) shall cease to be Related Products;
                    (ii) with respect to Plicera, then Gaucher Disease (plus any additional indication for [***] included within the Field pursuant to Section 6.1.5 or Section 6.2) shall thereafter be excluded from the definition of Field; the obligations under Sections 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 shall terminate; and the compounds and products described in Section 6.3.1(b) shall cease to be Related Products; and
                    (iii) with respect to AT2220, then Pompe Disease (plus any additional indication for DNJ included within the Field pursuant to Section 6.1.5) shall thereafter be excluded from the definition of Field; and the compounds and products described in Section 6.3.1(c) shall cease to be Related Products; in each of subsections (i) and (ii) above and this subsection (iii), for all purposes of this Agreement.
                    (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (x) a salt, enantiomer, metabolite or polymorph of such Compound is then actively being Developed (including clinical Development) or being Commercialized, or (y) an additional Compound has been added to this Agreement under Sections 6.3 or 6.4.4 (or 1.5.4) for a disease described in subsection (b)(i), (ii) or (iii) above and such Development is continuing under a Development Plan or as an Independent Project (or a Licensed Product is being Commercialized hereunder for such disease), then in either such case such disease shall not be deemed excluded from the Field under this Section 6.4.3 unless such Compound becomes a Reverted Product; and in the case of subsection (ii) if another Licensed Product containing [***] is actively being Developed (including clinical Development) or Commercialized hereunder, then Sections 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 shall not terminate pursuant to subsection (ii) above.
          6.4.4 Back-Up Compounds.
               (a) Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right. If a Licensed Product is terminated pursuant to Section 6.4.1(b) or 6.4.2 (a “Terminated Product”) and at such time there is no other Licensed Product containing the same Compound as the Terminated Product being Developed hereunder for the disease within the Field to which such Terminated Product was directed, then upon request by Shire, the JSC shall take the actions set forth in this Section 6.4.4 to select a Back-Up Compound (as defined below) to be added as a Compound hereunder (the “Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right”). For purposes hereof, a “Back-Up Compound” shall mean an active pharmaceutical ingredient Controlled by Amicus:

                    (i) that is a Related Product for the same Target and disease within the Field as the applicable Terminated Product (e.g., a Related Product described in Section 6.3.1(a), if the Terminated Product was being Developed for Fabry Disease); and
                    (ii) that is either (x) referenced on Exhibit 6.4.4 hereto, (y) (A) for which Amicus has performed or is performing human clinical trials for such disease within the Field, or (B) for which Amicus first initiates such a human clinical trial within three (3) years after the date of such termination, or (z) a pre-clinical compound for which Amicus has performed at least one (1) study in an animal model in the Field that Amicus has not designated as a candidate for Development outside the Field.
               (b) Notice. Promptly following termination of a Licensed Product as described in this Section 6.4.4(a)Amicus shall provide the JSC and Shire with a description of the Back-Up Compound(s) in existence at the time of such notice. If Shire exercised the Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right but the JSC does not select any of the Back-Up Compounds in existence at such time, and Amicus within three (3) years after the date of such termination initiates a human clinical trial of a Back-Up Compound within the Field, then Amicus shall notify the JSC at least thirty (30) days before initiating the first such trial or conducting the first such pre-clinical animal study of the first such Back-Up Compound (each of the notices in (i) and (ii), a “Back-Up Compound Notice”).
               (c) Exercise. To exercise the Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right, Shire shall notify Amicus and the JSC in writing of such exercise within [***] after its receipt of the Back-Up Compound Opt-In Notice (the “Back-Up Opt-In Exercise Period”). Upon Shire’s timely exercise of the Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right, the JSC may select one such Back-Up Compound to be included in the Development Plan pursuant to such Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right provided, that the JSC may select multiple Back-Up Compounds from those referenced in Exhibit 6.4.4. It is understood that the JSC (rather than Shire) shall select the Back-Up Compound to be added as a Compound pursuant to such Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right. Upon the JSC’s selection, and Shire’s acceptance, of the Back-Up Compound:
                    (i) such Back-Up Compound shall become a Compound hereunder, and the Field with respect to Licensed Products containing such Compound shall be the same disease within the Field for the applicable Terminated Product;
                    (ii) Shire shall promptly reimburse Amicus for [***] of the costs incurred by Amicus outside the Development Plans that are specifically attributable to the Development of such Back-Up Compound during the period prior to such exercise, determined in accordance with Section 6.5.4;

                    (iv) Amicus may elect, within [***] following such Back-Up Compound becoming a Compound, to terminate Development and Commercialization of such Compound and any Licensed Product containing such Compound in the Amicus Territory provided, Amicus shall not have the right to terminate a Back-Up Compound selected by the JSC, if Amicus had proposed that the JSC select such Back-Up Compound.
               (d) Failure to Exercise. If (i) Shire does not exercise the Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right with respect to a particular Terminated Product within the applicable Back-Up Opt-In Exercise Period, (ii) no Back-Up Compound is designated as a Compound under this Section 6.4.4 with respect to the Terminated Product within three (3) years following the date such Terminated Product is terminated under Section 6.4.1(b) or 6.4.2, or (iii) Shire does not accept the Back-Up Compound selected by the JSC within [***] of the selection of the JSC, then in any such case the Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right, and the provisions of this Section 6.4.4, shall terminate with respect to that Terminated Product and all Back-Up Compounds directed to the disease within the Field with respect to which such Terminated Product was directed, provided, Shire shall be deemed to have accepted the Back-Up Compound selected by the JSC, if Shire had proposed that the JSC select such Back-Up Compound.
     6.5 Additional Terms Regarding Related Product/Back-Up Compound Opt-In Rights
          6.5.1 Confirmation of Termination. In the case of a JSC vote to terminate a Licensed Product under Section 6.4.1 or 6.4.2, each Party’s vote on the JSC must be reflected in a written notice signed by both the Committee Co-Chair and the Chief Executive Officer of such Party.
          6.5.2 Additional Know-How. During the Related Product Opt-In Period and the sixty (60) day period after each Back-Up Compound Notice, Amicus shall provide Shire with reasonable access to other Data and Know-How Controlled by Amicus with respect to the Related Product or Back-Up Compound(s) contained in the applicable Related Product Opt-In Notice or Back-Up Compound Notice. However, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless such Related Product or Back-Up Compound becomes a Licensed Product or Compound in accordance with Section 6.3 or 6.4, Shire shall not have the right to use, and shall not use, such Know-How pertaining to such Related Product or Back-Up Compound provided to it pursuant to this Section 6.5.2 or otherwise to obtain Regulatory Approval of, or to Commercialize, any product.
          6.5.3 Transition of Development Following Exercise of Opt-In Right. Following exercise of the Related Product Opt-In Right or the selection of a Back-Up Compound upon exercise of the Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right, Amicus shall continue performing further activities related to the Development of such Related Product or Back-Up Compound, as applicable, in accordance with Amicus’ own Development plans for a period of up to one (1) year after the exercise of such Related Product Opt-In Right or selection, respectively, or until such earlier time as the JSC establishes such new Development Plan. Thereafter, the further Development of such Licensed Product shall be conducted in accordance with such Development Plan, as modified by the JSC from time to time. All costs reasonably incurred by Amicus in performing such activities (i.e., those after

Shire’s exercise of the applicable Opt-In Right, but prior to the JSC’s establishment of a new Development Plan), and those conducted pursuant to the new Development Plan so established, shall be shared in accordance with Section 7.4.1. Following exercise of the Related Product Opt-In Right or Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right, and adoption of the new Development Plan, the Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to ensure an orderly transition and uninterrupted Development of the Related Product or Back-Up Compound that was the subject of such Opt-In Right, respectively.
          6.5.4 Regarding Amount of Reimbursement. With respect to the calculation of costs to be reimbursed under Sections 6.3.3, 6.4.4(c)(ii) or 6.5.3, internal Development costs shall be determined by applying the FTE Rate used under the Development Plans for the same period. In the event of a dispute as to the costs to be reimbursed under such Sections, the matter shall be resolved by the JSC; and in such case, prompt reimbursement shall be made in the amount described above with respect to any undisputed amounts and any disputed amounts shall be promptly reimbursed upon resolution of such dispute by the JSC or pursuant to Section 16.8.
          6.5.5 Term of Related Product and Back-Up Compound Opt-In Rights. Within thirty (30) days after the first Regulatory Approval of a Licensed Product in the first Primary Market of the Shire Territory, Section 6.3 and Section 6.4.4 shall each terminate with respect to all Related Products, and all Back-Up Compounds, directed to the same disease within the Field as such Licensed Product. For example, upon the first Regulatory Approval for Amigal, (a) Shire would have no further Related Product Opt-In Right with respect to any small molecule that selectively binds to the active site of a-galactosidase A for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of Fabry Disease and (b) Shire would have no further Back-Up Compound Opt-In Right if Amigal (or any other Licensed Product being developed for Fabry Disease) thereafter becomes a Terminated Product.
     6.6 Independent Development and Commercialization of Related Products
          6.6.1 Neither Party shall, directly or indirectly, Commercialize a Related Product within the Field in the Shire Territory until [***] after the First Commercial Sale in the first Primary Market country in the Shire Territory of the Licensed Product directed toward the same Target as such Related Product. In addition, unless the Parties agree otherwise, Shire shall not and, solely with respect to a Related Product for which Amicus has elected solely to Commercialize in the Amicus Territory under Section 6.3.6, Amicus shall not, directly or indirectly, Develop such a Related Product prior to such First Commercial Sale; provided that such restriction shall apply neither to non-clinical Development activities, nor to clinical trials in healthy volunteers, with respect to a Related Product.
          6.6.2 For clarity, it is understood that Section 6.3 through 6.5 above shall not apply with respect to [***] for [***]’s or other products outside the Field.
     6.7 Reservation.  For clarity, is understood that, except as expressly provided in Section 4.3.2, this Agreement shall not be deemed to limit Amicus’ right to Manufacture, Develop,

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time the first Regulatory Approval is obtained for a Licensed Product in the first Primary Market country in the Shire Territory where (a) neither the sale nor use of such Licensed Product is covered by a Valid Claim and (b) such Licensed Product has no regulatory or orphan drug exclusivity in such Primary Market country, Shire may within thirty (30) days of such Regulatory Approval elect to (i) terminate this Agreement in its entirety with respect to such Licensed Product, under Section 15.3.2, in which case the Milestone payment for Regulatory Approval under Section 7.2.1 shall not be due for such Licensed Product irrespective of Section 7.2, (ii) terminate this Agreement with respect to such Licensed Product for the European Union only by providing notice as such and further no Milestone payment for such Regulatory Approval shall be due at such time for such Licensed Product irrespective of Section 7.2 or (iii) pay the Milestone payment for Regulatory Approval and continues as otherwise provided in the Agreement. In the event Shire elects subsection (ii) above, upon Regulatory Approval in the (x) first Secondary Country, Shire shall pay [***], (y) second Secondary Country, Shire shall pay [***] and (z) remaining Secondary Country, Shire shall pay [***], in each case of the Milestone payment that would have been paid upon the Regulatory Approval of such Licensed Product had Shire not made its election to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Licensed Product for the European Union. “Secondary Country” shall mean any one of the following: Japan, Brazil or Israel. In the event Shire elects (ii), then the European Union shall thereafter be included in the Amicus Territory with respect to such Licensed Product; and Section 6.4.3 above shall apply to such Licensed Product with respect to the European Union (and in the event of any dispute as to how Section 6.4.3 would apply in such case, the matter shall be determined by the JSC).

          7.3.1 Calculation. For such purposes, “Annual Net Sales” means total Net Sales of a particular Licensed Product in a particular calendar year for which royalties are due pursuant to this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, units of Licensed Products shall be considered sold, and the corresponding Net Sales shall be deemed to have accrued, when revenue is recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
          7.3.2 Generic Competition Reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is Generic Competition in a Calendar Quarter in a country within the Shire Territory with respect to a Licensed Product, the royalties due on sales of Licensed Product for such Calendar Quarter in such country shall be reduced as follows:
     
Percentage of Generic Competition in   Royalty Reduction on Net Sales from
a Country   such Country
 
>[***]% <[***]%   [***]%
= [***]% <[***]%   [***]%
= [***]%   [***]%
     “Generic Competition,” with respect to a Licensed Product in a country in the Shire Territory, shall exist after one or more Generic Versions of such Licensed Product are being marketed in such country. The percentage of Generic Competition in a country shall be calculated by dividing the aggregate unit volume of Generic Version(s) of such Licensed Product by the total prescription unit volume of such Licensed Product and such Generic Version(s) combined, in the aggregate, in such country in a calendar quarter (as measured by a Scott-Levin Associates audit or other mechanism determined by the JSC); and “Generic Version” shall mean a product that: (x) (1) with respect to the European Union or Japan [***] and (2) with respect to all other countries in the Shire Territory has the same active ingredient as the Compound in the Licensed Product and is legally substituted by pharmacies in such country for the Licensed Product [***].
     The adjustment under this Section 7.3.2 shall be reconciled at the end of each calendar year to take into account the total volume for the year of the particular Generic Version and such Licensed Product and the royalty rate applicable for such calendar year under this Section 7.3.2 as

determined by the JSC (such that total adjustment for the year shall be calculated on annual basis for such calendar year).
          7.3.3 Gross Margin Adjustment.
               (a) In the event that Shire’s average Gross Margin (as defined below) for a particular Licensed Product during any calendar quarter is less than [***]%, the difference between such average Gross Margin and [***]% shall be offset against the royalties otherwise payable with respect to such Licensed Product during such calendar quarter pursuant to Section 7.3 above, provided, however, that in no event shall: (a) the total royalty rate under Section 7.3 be reduced by more than [***]%, or (b) the royalty rate under Royalty Tier 1 be reduced to less than [***]%; and in any event there shall be no such reduction, under this Section 7.3.3, of the royalty rates under Royalty Tiers 3 and 4.
               (b) For purposes hereof:
                    (i) “Gross Margin” is defined as the Net Sales of such Licensed Product less the Manufacturing Cost (as defined below) of such Licensed Product for the units of Licensed Product whose sale generated the Net Sales for the period in question, provided, however, that for purposes of calculating Shire’s Gross Margin under this Section 7.3.3, Shire’s Manufacturing Cost shall be deemed not to exceed Amicus’ Manufacturing Cost for the same Licensed Product during the same period; and
                    (ii) “Manufacturing Cost” is defined as, with respect to a Licensed Product sold by a Party: (A)(1) the amount paid by such Party for such Licensed Product manufactured by a Third Party or (2) the cost of direct materials and direct labor for such Licensed Product manufactured by such Party or its Affiliate, plus a reasonable allocation of direct manufacturing overhead, not to exceed [***] of such materials and labor costs; (B) the net cost or credit to such Party of any value-added taxes or duties actually paid or utilized on account of such materials; (C) out-of-pocket transportation costs, including clearance and storage of such materials (if necessary), and transit insurance on account of such materials; (D) the costs of reasonable quantities of material destroyed in quality control testing on account of such Licensed Product (as such costs are calculated under clauses (A) through (C) above); and (E) in the case of a Licensed Product manufactured by a Third Party, the internal costs of such Party pertaining to the procurement of such materials (e.g., for quality assurance and quality control activities), not to exceed [***] of the Manufacturing Cost of such Licensed Product.
     7.3.4 Third Party Royalties. If Shire is required (a) to enter into an agreement to license or acquire rights under Third Party Patent Rights that are necessary to use, import, Manufacture or Commercialize (i) a Compound contained in a Licensed Product or (ii) the Licensed Products as existing as of the Effective Date and (b) pursuant to such agreement, to pay to a Third Party royalties or other payments in order to use, import, Manufacture or Commercialize a Licensed Product within the Field in a country of the Shire Territory, then Shire may deduct up to [***] of the commercially reasonable royalty or other payments payable to such Third Party from the royalty

thereafter payable to Amicus under Section 7.3 above with respect to such Licensed Product in such country, provided that the royalty paid to Amicus shall not be [***] of what Amicus would have received otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that this Section 7.3.4 shall not apply to Patent Rights listed on Schedule 7.3.4. In the event of a dispute between the Parties whether such Third Party license is required, such dispute shall be resolved by the JSC based upon the well reasoned opinion of qualified independent patent counsel retained by the JSC.
          7.3.5 Reports and Royalty Payment. Within ten (10) Business Days after the end of each calendar quarter, Shire shall deliver to Amicus a report setting out all details necessary to calculate the royalty payments due under this Section 7.3 with respect to Net Sales made in that calendar quarter, including:
               (a) units of Licensed Products sold in the Shire Territory during the relevant calendar quarter [***];
               (b) gross sales of Licensed Products in the Shire Territory in the relevant calendar quarter [***], including the gross sales price of each Licensed Product;
               (c) Net Sales of Licensed Products in the relevant calendar quarter on a country-by-country basis;
               (d) all relevant deductions in accordance with Section 1.25 and this Section 7.3;
               (e) all relevant exchange rate conversions; and
               (f) such other information as requested by Amicus regarding the Commercialization of Licensed Products in the Shire Territory as necessary to satisfy Amicus’ reporting obligations to its licensors under the Existing In-Licenses.
     Any amounts due under this Section 7.3 for such calendar quarter shall be paid within thirty (30) days after the end of such calendar quarter.
          7.3.6 Royalty Term. The obligation of Shire to pay royalties pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall continue for each Licensed Product, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and country-by-country basis, until the latest of:
               (a) Expiration of the last to expire Valid Claim covering the use, importation, or sale of such Licensed Product in the country of sale;
               (b) The loss of all regulatory exclusivity (including orphan drug exclusivity) to market such Licensed Product in such country; or
               (c) Fifteen (15) years after the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country.

     7.4 Development Cost Sharing7.4.1 Development Costs. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Party shall be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of all Development Costs incurred in accordance with the Development Plans.
          7.4.2 Cost Overruns. With respect to Development Costs to be shared by the Parties under Section 7.4.1 above, if the total Development Costs incurred by a Party (such party, the “Spending Party”) in a calendar year exceed the costs budgeted for such Party in the applicable then current Development Plan, then the other Party shall continue to bear its share of such costs under Section 7.4.1 above, notwithstanding such overrun, up to its share of [***] of the budgeted amounts (the “Permitted Overrun”), but such other Party shall not be responsible for its share of such aggregate costs in excess of the Permitted Overrun (the “Excess Costs”), without the approval of the JSC, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
          7.4.3 Commercialization Costs. For clarity, it is understood that each Party shall be responsible for all Commercialization costs incurred by such Party.
          7.4.4 Procedure for Sharing Development Costs.
               (a) Each Party shall calculate and maintain records of all Development Costs incurred by it in accordance with Section 7.8.
               (b) So that the Parties will share equally the Development Costs incurred in accordance with the Development Plans pursuant to Section 7.4.1 above, balancing payments shall be made as follows: On or before the fifteenth day of each month, the Party who is budgeted to incur the lesser amount of Development Costs during such month (as reflected in the then current Development Plans) (the “Reimbursing Party”) shall pay to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) an amount equal to (i) fifty percent (50%) of the Development Costs budgeted to be incurred by the Receiving Party during such month, less (ii) fifty percent (50%) of the Development Costs to be incurred by the Reimbursing Party during such month, all in accordance with the Development Plans then in effect. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Development Plan, amounts budgeted thereunder for a period exceeding the length of a month will be deemed budgeted in equal amounts for each month within such period. Within ten (10) days following the last day of each month during any period in which activities are being performed under a Development Plan hereunder, each Party shall provide to the other a good faith estimate of the Development Costs actually incurred by such Party during the month then ended, in a form determined by the JDC.
               (c) The Parties shall use good faith efforts to keep each other apprised of variances in Development budgets and to notify each other with respect thereto.
               (d) Within thirty (30) days following the last day of each calendar quarter (March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31) during the Term, the Parties shall reconcile the advanced payments made in accordance with paragraph (b) above with the Development Costs actually incurred to date by each Party, and within such thirty (30) day period the Parties shall make such balancing payment(s) as are necessary to achieve the result that each Party has funded fifty

               (e) Any dispute regarding Development Costs under this Section 7.4 shall be resolved by the JDC. The existence of any dispute regarding Development Costs or any other matter under this Section 7.4 shall not relieve a Party of its obligation to continue to pay prospectively each month its allocated portion of Development Costs in accordance with this Section 7.4 and the Development Plans. In the event of any such dispute, any undisputed amount shall be paid within the time periods specified in this Section 7.4, and the Party disputing any amount shall pay to the other Party within such time periods [***] of the disputed amount.
          7.4.5 Funding Under Initial Development Plans. It is understood that, beginning upon the Effective Date, the Parties will fund in accordance with this Section 7.4 the Development Costs incurred by Amicus under the initial Development Plans attached as Appendix 4. The Parties acknowledge, however, that the number of FTEs reflected in such initial Development Plans has not been agreed as of the Effective Date. Accordingly, if the final Development Plans established in accordance with Section 4.2.5(b) provide for fewer FTEs than those reflected in such initial Development Plans (or if the Parties sooner agree on a lower number of FTEs), then Shire shall receive a credit for its portion of the costs of such excess FTEs reimbursed by Shire under this Section 7.4, in the amount of one half of the FTE Rate multiplied by the number of such excess FTEs, prorated for the period of time from the Effective Date until the date such final Development Plans are so approved. Such credit shall be applied in equal monthly amounts over the first six months following the approval of such final Development Plans.
     7.5 Payments under Existing In-Licenses
          7.5.1 Generally. Other than as specifically provided in Sections 7.5.2, 7.5.3. 10.2.1 and 10.2.2 below, Shire shall have no responsibility for Third Party payments due with respect to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Licensed Products under the Existing In-Licenses, and such payments shall be borne solely by Amicus.
          7.5.2 Royalty Reductions. Amicus shall be responsible for paying any royalties owed to Third Parties under Amicus’ Existing In-Licenses. However, during the royalty term (as determined under Section 7.3.6) where a reduction of royalties due to Amicus under Section 7.3 with respect to a Licensed Product in a country of the Shire Territory occurs under Sections 7.3.2, 7.3.3, 7.3.4, 7.3.6 or 15.5.4 of this Agreement [***] with respect to sales of such Licensed Product in such country, Shire shall promptly reimburse Amicus [***]. If, with respect to a Licensed Product, upon the [***] Amicus continues to be obligated to make royalty payments to a Third Party under an Existing In-License with respect to sales of such Licensed Product in such country, then (x) Amicus shall promptly notify Shire of the amount of such royalty rate for sales of such Licensed Product and the period for which it is obligated to make such payments in such country and (y) within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice Shire shall notify Amicus of its election to (1) terminate its sublicense under such Existing In-License in which case such sublicense will terminate whereby no further royalties shall be due from Shire for sales of such Licensed Product in such country or (2)

          7.5.3 Sublicenses. In the event that the granting of a Sublicense under the rights granted to Shire under Section 2.1 triggers any payment obligation by Amicus under any Existing In-License (other than the payment of running royalties), Shire shall be responsible for, and shall promptly pay to Amicus upon request, any such amounts when they become due.
     7.6 Other Payment Terms
          7.6.1 Payment Method. All payments between the Parties under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the payments due under this Article 7) shall be made by bank wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by the Party to which such payments are due. All payments due under this Agreement which are not timely paid shall bear interest to the extent permitted by Law at a rate equal to the U.S Prime Lending Rate, as quoted in The Wall Street Journal (U.S. Eastern Edition), effective for the date on which the payment was due. This Section 7.6.1 shall in no way limit any other remedies available to the Parties.
          7.6.2 Currency. All dollar amounts in this Agreement are stated in, and all payments under this Agreement shall be made in, United States Dollars.

     7.7 Taxes
          7.7.1 Notice. Each Party will provide the other Party with reasonable advance notice of tax withholding obligations to which it reasonably believes that it is subject. Any withholding or other taxes that either Party is required by law to withhold or pay on behalf of the other Party, with respect to any payments to such other Party hereunder or any of the Related Agreements, shall be deducted from such payments and paid to the appropriate tax authority contemporaneously with the remittance to the other Party, provided, however, that the withholding Party shall furnish the other Party with proper evidence of the taxes so paid. Each Party shall cooperate with the other and furnish the other Party with appropriate documents to secure application of the most favorable rate of withholding tax under Law (or exemption from such withholding tax payments, as applicable), and, at the request of the payee Party, payment of any amount subject to withholding shall be deferred until the appropriate documents have been furnished.

In addition, Amicus agrees to use diligent efforts, upon request and at the expense of Shire, to recover from the Irish Revenue Commission any refundable tax, and/or to challenge an assessment of any other Irish tax, indemnified by Shire under Section 7.7.2(a) above.
               (c) Amicus warrants that as of the Effective Date it is, and the indemnity and agreement not to withhold under Section 7.7.1 above is conditioned upon Amicus (and its successors under Section 16.1) being on the date of any payment under this Agreement, a resident in the United States for the purposes of the Convention between the Government of Ireland and Government of the United States of America for the avoidance of double taxation and the prevention of fiscal evasion with respect to taxes on income and capital gains signed 28th day of July, 1997.
     7.8 Records Retention; Audits
          7.8.1 Record Retention. Each Party will maintain complete and accurate books, records and accounts used for the determination of expenses incurred in connection with the performance of Development of Licensed Products within the Field (and of [***] for [***]’s) or otherwise relevant for the calculation of Net Sales, in sufficient detail to confirm the accuracy of any payments required under this Agreement, which books, records and accounts will be retained by such Party for five (5) years after the end of the period to which such books, records and accounts pertain, or longer as is required by Law.
          7.8.2 Request. Upon the written request of a Party (the “Auditing Party”) and not more than once each calendar year, the other Party (the “Responding Party”) shall permit the Auditing Party, accompanied by an independent certified public accounting firm of internationally recognized standing, selected by the Auditing Party and reasonably acceptable to the Responding Party, to have access during normal business hours to the records of the Responding Party as may be

          7.8.3 Discrepancies. If, as a result of such audit, it is established that additional amounts were owed by the Responding Party for the audited period, such Party shall pay such additional amounts within thirty (30) days after the date such discrepancy is established. The determination by such public accounting firm shall be definitive and final. The fees charged by such accounting firm shall be paid by the Auditing Party; provided, however, that if the audit establishes that the aggregate amounts payable by the Responding Party for the period covered by the audit are more than one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate amounts actually paid for such period, then the Responding Party shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses charged by such accounting firm. The Auditing Party shall treat all financial information subject to review under this Section 7.8 as confidential, and shall cause its accounting firm to retain all such financial information in confidence.
ARTICLE 8
MANUFACTURING AND SUPPLY

the JDC or by agreement of the Parties, it being understood that any differences in such form requested by Shire shall be at Shire’s expense.
          8.1.4 Shortage of Supply. The procedures and arrangements to be established by the JDC under Section 8.1.1 above shall include reasonable mechanisms to avoid shortage of supply, including procedures for buffer stock inventories to be maintained by the Parties on a proportionate basis, and/or establishing second source manufacturers or manufacturing sites. If, prior to the establishment and implementation of such procedures, Shire’s requirements of Materials cannot be fulfilled in accordance with this Article 8, the total available quantities of Licensed Products shall be allocated among the Parties on a reasonable worldwide basis (based upon the needs of the Development Plans and any Independent Projects, and if such Licensed Product is then being Commercialized, sales history and reasonably forecasted demand for such Licensed Product), as determined by the JSC.
     8.2 Supply Agreement.  Upon Shire’s written request, the Parties shall use good faith efforts to enter into a commercial supply agreement (a “Supply Agreement”) within six (6) months of such request consistent with this Article 8 on commercially reasonable terms documenting the arrangement by which Amicus shall supply Shire’s reasonable requirements for Materials at cost for the Shire Territory, which Supply Agreement shall contain forecasting and ordering procedures (including lead times), product specifications, delivery terms and other appropriate provisions and be consistent with Amicus’ contractual arrangements with its Third Party suppliers.
     8.3 Limitation; Manufacturing by Shire.  Amicus shall (a) cooperate fully with Shire to make available for the benefit of Shire the benefits of Amicus’ supply agreements and/or arrangements with its Third Party suppliers of Materials and (b) administer such agreements or arrangements diligently and pursue its rights and remedies thereunder. It is understood, Amicus shall not be liable for a default or a failure of supply due to default of the Third Party suppliers. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, after the first Phase II Clinical Trial for a Licensed Product, Shire shall have the right to Manufacture, or engage a Third Party to Manufacture, Shire’s requirements of Materials for the Shire Territory. Promptly following Shire’s request, Amicus shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, to Shire or such Third Party manufacturer all Amicus Know-How that is necessary, useful or actually used for such Manufacture of Materials (and the cost of such transfer of Amicus Know-How shall be shared equally by the Parties), and shall make personnel of Amicus reasonably available to assist Shire and/or its contractor in implementing the Amicus Know-How necessary to Manufacture such Materials. In any event the Parties shall cooperate to use the same process in Manufacturing Materials for use in Development.

     9.5 Regulatory Inspections.  If either Party or its Affiliates or contractors (an “Inspected Party”) are to be inspected by a Regulatory Authority regarding the Development or Manufacture of a Licensed Product, in each case within the Field, the Inspected Party shall promptly notify the JDC of the inspection in advance. The Inspected Party shall, where practicable, permit representatives of each of Shire and Amicus to participate as observers with respect to such inspection, and shall provide the JDC with a written report of any such inspection, noting with specificity any records or documents reviewed by the regulatory inspector, and including copies of any FDA 483s (or their foreign equivalent) or written communications provided by any Regulatory Authority relating to such inspection. The Inspected Party shall also provide an opportunity for the JDC to assist in responding to any issues or concerns relating to such inspections, and shall provide copies of all communications to and from any Regulatory Authority relating thereto to the JDC. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith and otherwise mutually support any such inspections by the FDA or other Regulatory Authority of facilities, clinical investigators or contract manufacturers.

          10.3.1 Notice. If either Party reasonably believes that a Third Party is conducting any activities in the Shire Territory that may constitute actual or potential infringement of the Amicus Patent Rights, in each case with respect to a Generic Version of a Licensed Product or a Related Product in the Field in the Shire Territory (each, an “Alleged Infringement”), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of such activities.
          10.3.2 Shire’s First Right to Enforce. Except as otherwise agreed, Shire shall have the first right to bring and control any action or proceeding under such Patent Rights in respect to an Alleged Infringement occurring in the Shire Territory.

          10.3.3 Cooperation. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other in all actions or proceedings described in this Section 10.3, to the extent pertaining to an Alleged Infringement. The non-controlling Party agrees to be joined as a party plaintiff if necessary to prosecute the action or proceeding and shall provide all reasonable cooperation (including any necessary use of its name) required to prosecute such litigation; provided that the controlling Party shall reimburse the non-controlling Party for out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in providing such cooperation at the controlling Party’s request. The non-controlling Party will be entitled to be represented by counsel of its own choice at its own expense.
          10.3.4 Recoveries. Any recovery obtained by any Party as a result of any proceeding described in this Section 10.3, by settlement or otherwise, shall be applied in the following order of priority: (a) first, to reimburse each Party for all litigation costs in connection with such proceeding paid by that Party and not otherwise recovered (on a pro rata basis based on each Party’s respective litigation costs, to the extent the recovery was less than all such litigation costs); and (b) second, the remainder shall be shared in the ratio of two-thirds (2/3) to Shire and one-third (1/3) to Amicus.
     10.4 Defense of Infringement Claims.  If a Licensed Product becomes the subject of a Third Party’s claim or assertion of infringement of a patent relating to the making, using, sale, offer for sale or importation of such Licensed Product within the Field in the Shire Territory, the Party first having notice of the claim or assertion shall promptly notify the other Party, and the Parties shall promptly confer to consider the claim or assertion and the appropriate course of action. If the claim or assertion names Shire as Defendant, then Shire shall have the right to control the defense of any proceeding, and Amicus shall have right to join in such defense at its own expense. Unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing, each Party shall have the right to defend itself against a suit that names such Party as a defendant, and the other Party shall have the right to join in such defense at its own expense. Neither Party shall enter into any settlement of any action described in this Section 10.4, or otherwise consent to an adverse judgment in any such action, that imposes a financial obligation on the other Party, or that admits the infringement or validity of any Third Party Patent without the other Party’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any event, each Party shall reasonably assist the other Party and cooperate in connection with any

     10.6 License of Third Party Rights.
          10.6.1 Existing Third Party Technology. It is understood that certain Patents Rights for the Shire Territory within the Amicus Patent Rights have been in-licensed pursuant to certain existing in-license agreements listed in Exhibit 10.6.1 hereto (the “Existing In-Licenses”). As required for the furtherance of the objectives of this Agreement, Amicus shall maintain the Existing In-Licenses and timely pay all fees due thereunder. In addition, it is understood by the Parties that their respective rights under Sections 10.2 and 10.3 above with respect to the Amicus Patent Rights licensed to Amicus under the Existing In-Licenses are subject to and limited by the applicable terms and conditions of the Existing In-Licenses. Amicus agrees to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to persuade its licensors pursuant to such licenses (“Licensors”) to fully cooperate with Shire in the defense or prosecution of any proceedings hereunder, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Licensors not to enter into any settlement, agreement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any proceeding or threatened proceeding which would adversely affect Shire or its rights and licenses hereunder.
          10.6.2 Third Party Technology Acquired after Effective Date. In addition, if after the Effective Date, Amicus or Shire (the “Sublicensing Party”) acquire rights from a Third Party that are to be licensed to the other Party under this Agreement, including with respect to a Related Product or Back-Up Compound under Section 6.3 or 6.4.4, respectively (“Third Party Technology”), but that is subject to royalty or other payment obligations to the Third Party, then the following shall apply: The licenses granted to the other Party (the “Commercializing Party”) hereunder with respect to such Third Party Technology shall be subject to the Commercializing Party’s promptly reimbursing the Sublicensing Party for any milestone payments, royalties or other amounts that become owing to such Third Party by reason of the Commercializing Party’s exercise of such license or sublicense to the Third Party Technology. To the extent that any such payments made by a Party under an agreement to acquire Third Party Technology are not attributable to either Territory, but are attributable to the acquisition of rights to a Third Party Technology used for a Licensed Product, a reasonable portion of such amounts as determined by the JSC shall be deemed Development Costs to be shared under Section 7.4.1 (unless excluded from the licenses hereunder as provided in this Section 10.6.2). At the inception of the inclusion of any Third Party Technology in such license under this Agreement and thereafter upon request by the Commercializing Party, the Sublicensing Party shall disclose to the Commercializing Party a true, complete and correct written description of such payment obligations, and the Commercializing Party’s obligation to reimburse such amounts following such request shall be limited to those payment obligations as so disclosed by

the Commercializing Party. In the event that the Commercializing Party does not promptly reimburse the Sublicensing Party for such amounts upon request (such amounts as determined by the JSC in accordance with this Agreement, to the extent so provided above), then such Third Party Technology shall thereafter be deemed excluded from the licenses or other subject matter licensed hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, this Section 10.6.2 shall not apply to Patent Rights licensed by Shire from a Third Party and covered by Section 7.3.4 above.

In any case, neither Party will permit the quality of the Licensed Products with which the other Party’s Product Marks are used to deteriorate so as to affect adversely the goodwill associated with such Product Marks.
          11.1.6 Enforcement. Amicus and Shire shall reasonably cooperate with each other to protect each other’s Product Marks. The JSC shall determine whether and to what extent to institute and prosecute or defend any actions or proceedings involving or affecting the Trademark Licensor’s Product Marks in the Trademark Licensee’s Territory.

this Agreement or (c) any material breach by Shire of any representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this Agreement, except to the extent such Third Party Claims fall within the scope of Amicus’ indemnification obligations set forth in Section 13.1.
     13.3 Procedure. A Party that intends to claim indemnification under this Article 13 (the “Indemnitee”) shall promptly notify the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) in writing of any Third Party Claim in respect of which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification, and the Indemnitor shall have the right to control the defense and/or settlement thereof with counsel of its choice as long as such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in such defense and/or settlement at its own expense with counsel of its choice. The indemnity arrangement in this Section 13.3 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any action with respect to a Third Party Claim if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after the commencement of any action with respect to a Third Party Claim, shall relieve such Indemnitor of any Liabilities that result from any delay in providing such notice which materially prejudices the defense of such Third Party Claim under this Section 13.3, but the omission to so deliver written notice to the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to any Indemnitee otherwise than under this Section 13.3. The Indemnitee under this Section 13.3 shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any action with respect to a Third Party Claim covered by this Article 13.
     13.4 Insurance. Each Party shall procure and maintain insurance, including product liability insurance, which is consistent with normal business practices of prudent companies similarly situated at all times during which any Licensed Product is being clinically tested in human subjects or commercially distributed or sold by such Party and the insurance coverage shall in no event be less than: (a) prior to the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product anywhere in the world, $[***] per loss occurrence and $[***] in the aggregate, and (b) after such First Commercial Sale, $[***] per loss occurrence and $[***] in the aggregate. It is understood that such insurance shall not be construed to create a limit of either Party’s liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Article 13. Each Party shall provide the other Party with written evidence of such insurance upon request. Each Party shall provide the other Party with written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the cancellation, non-renewal or material change in such insurance or self insurance which materially adversely affects the rights of the other Party hereunder.

Once such abstracts, manuscripts or presentations have been reviewed by each Party, the same information contained in such abstracts, manuscripts or presentations does not have to be provided again to the other Party for review for a later submission for publication. Each Party shall also have the right to require that its Confidential Information be removed from any such approved Collaboration Results Publication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Collaboration Results Publication shall be delayed upon the request of Party for a period not less than sixty (60) days, if such Party requests such delay in order to allow for filing a patent application or taking such measures as such Party deems appropriate to establish and preserve its proprietary rights.

Such disclosures may include, without limitation, achievement of Development milestones, significant events in the Development and regulatory process with respect to Licensed Products, Commercialization activities and the like. When a Party (the “Initiating Party”) elects to make any such public disclosure under this Section 14.6.2, it will give the other Party (the “Cooperating Party”) at least five (5) Business Days notice to review and comment on such statement, it being understood that if the Cooperating Party does not notify the Initiating Party in writing within such five (5) Business Day period of any objections, such disclosure shall be deemed approved, and in any event the Cooperating Party shall work diligently and reasonably to agree on the text of any approved disclosure in an expeditious manner.

     16.2 Independent Contractors. The Parties are and shall at all time be independent contractors. In performing under this Agreement, neither Party is an agent, employee, employer, joint venturer or partner of the other. Neither Party shall incur or hold itself out to Third Parties as having the authority to incur any expenses, liabilities or obligations on behalf of the other Party.

     16.4 Waiver.

No waiver of any right under this Agreement shall be effective unless it is documented in a writing signed by the Party providing the waiver.
     16.5 Force Majeure. A failure by a Party to perform any obligation under this Agreement that is prevented by an occurrence beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing Party (and which did not occur as a result of its financial condition, negligence or fault), including acts of God, embargoes, fires, floods, explosions, riots, wars, civil disorders, terrorist acts, rebellion or acts of sabotage (a “Force Majeure Event”), shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement so long as that Party notifies the other Party as soon as practicable and uses Commercially Reasonable Efforts to resume performance as soon as possible. Neither Party shall be entitled to rely on a Force Majeure Event to relieve it from an obligation to pay money (including any interest for delayed payment) which would otherwise be due and payable under this Agreement.
     16.6 Severability. If any term of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by Law (a) all other terms shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction, (b) such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction and (c) the Parties shall negotiate in good faith such terms as may be necessary in order to correct any imbalance of rights and obligations that results from such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in the relevant jurisdiction.

          16.8.1 Committee Disputes. The Parties agree that the inability of the JSC, JDC, JCC or any Special Committee to reach consensus on a decision that is expressly designated in this Agreement to be made by such Committee (a “Committee Dispute”) shall be resolved through the procedures set forth in this Section 16.8.
               (a) In the event that the JDC, JCC or a Special Committee is unable to reach consensus on a decision within the authority of such Committee, such Committee Dispute shall be first referred to the JSC by a Co-Chair of the JDC, JCC or such Special Committee, as applicable, who has concluded in good faith that there has been sufficient discussion of the matter and that resolution is unlikely, and the JSC shall consider such matter within fourteen (14) days. If the JSC is unable to reach a unanimous decision as to such Committee Dispute, or to a Committee Dispute within the direct authority of the JSC, within such fourteen (14) day period, such Committee Dispute shall similarly be referred for joint and mutual resolution by the Chief Executive Officer (or his/her designee) of each Party. If such Committee Dispute is not resolved by the Chief Executive Officers (or their respective designees) within thirty (30) days after being referred for their joint and mutual resolution, then such Committee Dispute shall, upon written notice of either Party to the other Party, be resolved by final, binding arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Sections 16.8.1(b) through (d).
               (b) The arbitration shall be conducted by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (or its successor entity) (“JAMS”) under its rules of arbitration then in effect, except as modified in this Agreement. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language, by a single arbitrator. If the Parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator, the arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the JAMS rules, or if the JAMS rules do not provide for such selection, by the chief executive of JAMS. At his or her election, the arbitrator may engage an independent expert with experience in the subject matter of the dispute to advise the arbitrator, but final decision making authority shall remain in the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall determine what discovery will be permitted, consistent with the goal of reasonably controlling the cost and time that the Parties must expend for discovery, provided that the arbitrator shall permit such discovery as he or she deems necessary to permit an equitable resolution of the dispute.
               (c) The Parties and the arbitrator shall use all reasonable efforts to complete any such arbitration within ninety (90) days, and such arbitration shall be a “baseball” type arbitration, meaning that, following all permitted discovery and in accordance with procedures otherwise determined by the arbitrator, each Party shall prepare a written report setting forth its final position with respect to the substance of the dispute and the arbitrator shall then select one of the Party’s positions as his or her final decision. The arbitrator shall not have authority to render any substantive decision other than to so select the position of either Amicus or Shire. Further, to the extent applicable, the arbitrator shall make such decision based on the underlying agreement of the Parties that the Parties are equally sharing all costs for Development of Licensed Products (other than under an Independent Project) in order to achieve Regulatory Approval in each of the Primary Market countries.

               (d) The Parties agree that the decision of the arbitrator shall be the binding remedy between them regarding the dispute presented to the arbitrator, and in the case of a Committee Dispute shall become the decision of the JSC on the matter. The arbitration proceedings and the decision of the arbitrator shall be deemed Confidential Information of both Parties under Article 14 above. Unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Parties, the arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in New York, New York. The Parties agree that they shall share equally the cost of the arbitration filing and hearing fees, the cost of the independent expert retained by the arbitrator and the cost of the arbitrator and administrative fees of JAMS. Each Party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ and witnesses’ fees and associated costs and expenses.
          16.8.2 Disputes Regarding the Right of First Refusal. The Parties agree that it is important to be able to resolve any disputes regarding Sections 2.4, 6.1.3, 6.2.1 6.2.2, 6.3.2, 6.3.3, 6.4.4 or 6.5.5 above quickly. In the event of a dispute under such provison, such dispute shall be resolved under binding arbitration in accordance with Section 16.8.1(b)-(d).
     16.9 Construction. Unless the context of this Agreement clearly requires otherwise, (a) references to any gender include all genders, (b) “including” has the inclusive meaning frequently identified with the phrase “including but not limited to” or “including without limitation” and (c) references to “hereunder” or “herein” relate to this Agreement.

In addition: (a) “Business Day” means a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day that is a statutory holiday in the United Kingdom or a federal holiday in the United States; and (b) “Laws” means all laws, ordinances, rules, directives and regulations of any kind of any governmental or regulatory authority of a country in the Territory (including Regulatory Authorities), in each case to the extent applicable to the respective activities of a Party that are being performed.
     16.10 Notices. All notices that are required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sufficient if personally delivered or sent by registered or certified mail, Federal Express or other international business delivery service. Any notices shall be deemed given upon the earlier of the date when received at, or the third day after the date when sent by registered or certified mail or the day after the date when sent by Federal Express or other international business delivery service to, the address set forth below, unless such address is changed by notice to the other Party:

EXHIBIT 16.14
Sections 6, 9 and 10 of the MSSM Agreement
     6. Confidential Information.
          a. In the course of research to be performed under this Agreement, it will be necessary for each party to disclose “Confidential Information” to the other. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” is defined as all information, data and know-how disclosed by one party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other (the “Receiving Party”), either embodied in tangible materials (including writings, drawings, graphs, charts, photographs, recordings, structures, technical and other information) marked “Confidential” or, if initially disclosed orally, which is reduced to writing marked “Confidential” within 21 days after initial oral disclosure, other than that information which is:
               i) known by the Receiving Party at the time of its receipt, and not through a prior disclosure by the Disclosing Party, as documented by the Receiving Party’s business records; or
               ii) at the time of disclosure, or thereafter becomes, published or otherwise part of the public domain without breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party; or
               iii) obtained from a third party who has the legal right to make such disclosure and without any confidentiality obligation to the Disclosing Party; or
               iv) independently developed by the Receiving Party without the use of Confidential Information received from the Disclosing Party and such independent development can be documented by the Receiving Party; or
               v) disclosed to governmental or other regulatory agencies in order to obtain patents, provided that such disclosure may be made only to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain such patents or authorizations, and further provided that any such patent applications shall be filed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; or
               vi) required by law, regulation, rule, act or order of any governmental authority to be disclosed.
          b. The Receiving Party agrees that at all times and notwithstanding any termination, expiration, or cancellation hereunder, it will hold the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in strict confidence, will use all reasonable safeguards to prevent unauthorized disclosure by its employees and agents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties recognize that industry standards with respect to the treatment of Confidential Information may not be appropriate in an            academic setting. However, MSSM agrees to retain Confidential Information of AMICUS in the same manner and with the same level of confidentiality as MSSM retains its own Confidential information.

          c. The Receiving Party will maintain reasonable procedures to prevent accidental or other loss, including unauthorized publication of any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party will promptly notify the Disclosing Party in the event of any loss or unauthorized disclosure of the Confidential Information.
          d. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, and upon written request, the Receiving Party will promptly return to the Disclosing Party all documents or other tangible materials representing Confidential Information and all copies thereof.
          e. The Receiving Party will immediately notify the Disclosing Party in writing, if it is requested by a court order, a governmental agency, or any other entity to disclose Confidential Information in the Receiving Party’s possession. The Disclosing Party will have an opportunity to intervene by seeking a protective order or other similar order, in order to limit or prevent disclosure of the Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will disclose only the minimum Confidential Information required to be disclosed in order to comply, whether or not a protective order or other similar order is obtained by the Disclosing Party.
     9. Liability and Indemnification.
          a. AMICUS shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless MSSM and its trustees, officers, directors, medical and professional staff, employees, students and agents and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (the “Indemnitees”), against any liability, damage, loss or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of litigation) incurred by or imposed upon the Indemnitees or any one of them in connection with any claims, suits, actions, demands or judgments: (i) arising out of the production, manufacture, sale, use in commerce or in human clinical trials, lease, or promotion by AMICUS or by a licensee, Affiliate or agent of AMICUS of any Licensed Product, process or service relating to, or developed pursuant to, this Agreement, or (ii) arising out of any other activities to be carried out pursuant to this Agreement.
          b. AMICUS’s indemnification under subsection a(i), above, shall apply to any liability, damage, loss or expense whether or not it is attributable to the negligent activities of the Indemnitees. AMICUS’s indemnification under subsection a (ii), above, shall not apply to any liability, damage, loss or expense to the extent that it is attributable to the negligence, gross negligence or intentional misconduct of the Indemnitees.
          c. AMICUS shall, at its own expense, provide attorneys reasonably acceptable to MSSM to defend against any actions brought or filed against any party indemnified hereunder with respect to the subject of indemnity contained herein, whether or not such actions are rightfully brought.
          d. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 9, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

     10. Security for Indemnification.
          a. At such time as any Licensed Product is being commercially distributed or sold (other than for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approvals) by AMICUS or by a sub-licensee, Affiliate or agent of AMICUS and to the extent that it is available on commercially reasonable terms, AMICUS shall at its sole cost and expense, procure and maintain policies of comprehensive general liability insurance in amounts not less than [***] per incident and [***] annual aggregate and naming the indemnitees as additional insureds. Such comprehensive general liability insurance shall provide (i) product liability coverage and (ii) broad form contractual liability coverage for AMICUS’s indemnification under Section 9 of this Agreement. The minimum amounts of insurance coverage required under this Section 10 shall not be            construed as a limit of AMICUS’s liability with respect to its indemnification under Section 9 of this Agreement.
          b. AMICUS shall provide MSSM with written evidence of such insurance upon request of MSSM. AMICUS shall provide MSSM with written notice at least 60 days prior to the cancellation, non-renewal or material change in such insurance; if AMICUS does not obtain replacement insurance providing comparable coverage within such 60 day period effective immediately upon notice to AMICUS, MSSM shall have the right to terminate this Agreement effective at the end of such 60 day period without notice or any additional waiting periods.
          c. AMICUS shall maintain such comprehensive general liability insurance beyond the expiration or termination of this Agreement during: (i) the period that any product, process or service, relating to, or developed pursuant to, this Agreement is being commercially distributed or sold (other than for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approvals) by AMICUS or by a licensee, Affiliate or agent of AMICUS and (ii) a reasonable period after the period referred to in (c)(i) above which in no event shall be less than seven years.
