Taxes.

 

  5.14.1.

General. It is understood and agreed between the Parties that any payments made under this Agreement are exclusive of any value added or similar tax (“VAT”), which shall be added thereon as applicable. In the event any payments made by Licensee to Anacor pursuant to this Agreement become subject to withholding taxes under the laws or regulation of any jurisdiction, Licensee shall deduct and withhold the amount of such taxes for the account of Anacor to the extent required by Applicable Law and such amounts payable to Anacor shall be reduced by the amount of taxes deducted and withheld, which shall be treated as paid to Anacor in accordance with this Agreement. To the extent that Licensee is required to deduct and withhold taxes on any payments under this Agreement, Licensee shall pay the amounts of such taxes to the proper governmental authority in a timely manner and promptly transmit to the payee an official tax certificate or other evidence of such withholding sufficient to enable Anacor to claim such payments of taxes. Anacor shall provide any tax forms to Licensee that may be reasonably necessary in order for Licensee not to withhold tax or to withhold tax at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty. Each Party shall provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by Applicable Law, of withholding taxes, VAT, or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such withholding tax or VAT.

 

  5.14.2.

Tax Actions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if an action, including but not limited to any assignment or sublicense of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or any failure to comply with Applicable Laws or filing or record retention requirements (a “Tax Action”) by a Party leads to the imposition of withholding tax liability or VAT on the other Party that would not have been imposed in the absence of a Tax Action or in an increase in such liability above the liability that would have been imposed in the absence of such Tax Action, then (i) the sum payable by the Party that caused

  the Tax Action (in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made) shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that the other Party receives a sum equal to the sum which it would have received had no Tax Action occurred and (ii) the sum payable by the Party that caused a Tax Action (in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made) shall be made to the other Party after deduction of the amount required to be so deducted or withheld, which deducted or withheld amount shall be remitted in accordance with Applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, a Party shall only be liable for increased payments pursuant to this Section 5.14.2 to the extent such Party engaged in a Tax Action that created or increased a withholding tax or VAT on the other Party.

 

  5.14.3.

Cooperation. The Parties agree to cooperate and produce on a timely basis any tax forms or reports, including an IRS Form W-8BEN, reasonably requested by the other Party in connection with any payment made by Licensee to Anacor under this Agreement.

Such audit shall be requested in writing at least [***] in advance, and shall be conducted during Licensee’s normal business hours and otherwise in a manner that minimizes any interference to Licensee’s business operations.

 

  6.3.

Audit Fees and Expenses. Anacor shall bear any and all fees and expenses it may incur in connection with any such audit of the Relevant Records; provided, however, in the event an audit reveals an underpayment by Licensee of more than [***] as to the period subject to the audit, Licensee shall reimburse Anacor for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the audit within [***] after receiving invoices thereof, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2, Anacor shall have the right to examine the Relevant Records of Licensee up to [***] every [***] for the [***] period following the audit revealing such underpayment.

Payment of Deficiency.

Licensee will select additional qualified patent counsel and foreign agents as necessary, in each case reasonably acceptable to Anacor, within [***] after the Effective Date.

Prior to selecting any such Patent Rights for a Patent Term Extension, Licensee shall notify Anacor of any such selection and, at Anacor’s request, discuss in good faith any issues or comments Anacor may have with respect to the selection of such Patent Rights and Licensee shall take into consideration Anacor’s reasonable comments. Licensee shall have the responsibility of applying for any Patent Term Extension with respect to such Patent Rights and the Products in the Territory. Licensee shall consult with Anacor and keep Anacor reasonably informed of its efforts to obtain such Patent Term Extension. As reasonably requested by Licensee in writing, Anacor shall cooperate, at Licensee’s expense, in obtaining such Patent Term Extension. Licensee agrees to execute and deliver such further authorizations and instruments in advance of submission to provide Anacor with reasonable comment rights and Licensee agrees to take into consideration such further actions as may be reasonably requested by Anacor to implement the foregoing. If Licensee does not exercise its rights to file Patent Term Extensions on any Licensed Patent Right in the Territory, Anacor shall have the right, on a country-by-country basis to file a Patent Term Extension for such Licensed Patent Rights at Anacor’s sole expense.

 

  7.2.4.

Failure to Prosecute or Maintain. In the event Licensee elects to forgo filing, prosecution, or maintenance of the Licensed Patent Rights, Licensee shall notify Anacor of such election at least [***] prior to any filing or payment due date, or any other due date that requires action (“Election Notice”). Upon receipt of an Election Notice, Anacor shall be entitled, upon written notice to Licensee, at its sole discretion and expense, to file or to continue the prosecution or maintenance of such Patent Right in such country in Anacor’s name using counsel of its own choice and at its own expense, in which case, as of the date Licensee provides Anacor such Election Notice, the license granted in Section 2.1.1 with respect to such patent rights shall become non-exclusive and non-sublicensable (to the extent Licensee has not sublicensed such Patent Right prior to providing such Election Notice), and Licensee will have no further rights in respect of the filing, maintenance, or enforcement of such Patent Right.

  (a)

Licensee shall have the first right (but not the obligation), at its own expense, to control enforcement of the exclusively licensed Licensed Technology against any Third Party Infringement within the scope of its exclusive license and may name Anacor as a party for standing purposes.

Licensee shall give Anacor timely notice of any proposed settlement of any such action instituted by Licensee and shall not, without the prior written consent of Anacor, enter into any settlement that would: (i) adversely affect the validity, enforceability or scope of any of the Licensed Patent Rights, (ii) give rise to liability of Anacor or its Affiliates, (iii) admit non-infringement of any Licensed Patent Rights, or (iv) otherwise impair Anacor’s rights in any Licensed Technology or this Agreement.

  8.2.2.

Recoveries. Any recoveries resulting from an action relating to a claim of Third Party Infringement shall first be applied to reimburse each Party’s costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith. Any remaining recoveries shall be retained by (or if received by Anacor, paid to) Licensee; provided, however, [***].
