(y) | a worldwide, royalty-bearing, nonexclusive license under the Isis Manufacturing Patents solely to research, make (but not have made), use, import, offer to sell and sell and otherwise discover, develop, and commercialize Licensed Products; and | ||
(z) | a worldwide, royalty-bearing, exclusive (subject to Section 2.1.2) license under the Isis Chemistry Patents, with the right to grant sublicenses subject to Section 4.4, to research, make, have made, use, import, offer to sell and sell and otherwise discover, develop, and commercialize Licensed Products. |
Archemix will have no right to sublicense or otherwise transfer to any Third Party any rights in or to the licenses to the Isis Analytical Patents or to the Isis Manufacturing Patents granted to Archemix under Section 2.1.1(x) or 2.1.1(y), respectively. For the avoidance of doubt, and subject to the field restriction set forth in the first sentence of Section 2.1.1, Archemixs conduct through its own employees or consultants of in-house tests on Aptamer Products made by Third Parties shall be deemed to fall within Archemixs rights to make Licensed Products under Sections 2.1.1(x) and 2.1.1(y) as applicable, and shall not constitute having made.
2.1.2 Upon the occurrence of any Conversion Event, the exclusive license granted to Archemix under Section 2.1.1(z) will automatically become non-exclusive, subject to the following:
(a) Such license will remain exclusive with respect to any Target and any Licensed Product that binds to such Target for which Archemix (or an Archemix Affiliate or Archemix Sublicensee) has achieved the [***] milestone and has timely paid Isis the applicable milestone payment under Section 5.2 below prior to the occurrence of the first Conversion Event.
(b) If, following the occurrence of the first Conversion Event, such exclusive license converts to a non-exclusive license pursuant to this Section 2.1.2, such license will convert back to an exclusive license (regardless of the intervening period of non-exclusivity) with respect to any Target and any Licensed Product that binds to such Target for which Archemix (or an Archemix Affiliate or Archemix Sublicensee) has achieved the [***] milestone and has timely paid Isis the applicable milestone payment under Section 5.2 below; provided, that Isis has not, after the first Conversion Event but prior to Archemixs (or an Archemix Affiliates or Archemix Sublicensees) achievement of the [***] Milestone and payment of the applicable milestone payment, granted a license to a Third Party that would prevent Isis from granting an exclusive license with respect to such Target and Licensed Product to Archemix.

2.1.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Isis retains the right under the license granted to Archemix under Section 2.1.1(z) above to fulfill its obligations under any licenses granted by Isis prior to the Effective Date, and to grant Permitted Licenses, and the exclusivity of the license granted to Archemix under Section 2.1.1(z) is limited by any such licenses granted prior to and after the Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Permitted License shall grant any Third Party exclusive rights under the Isis Patents to research, make, have made, use, import, offer to sell or sell, or otherwise discover, develop, or commercialize Licensed Products.

Section 5.4 Royalty Payments by Archemix.
5.4.1 In consideration of Isis collaborative efforts and the licenses granted hereunder, Archemix will pay Isis a royalty of [***]% of Net Sales of each Archemix-Marketed Licensed Product. For any Licensed Products sold by an Archemix Sublicensee pursuant to a Sublicense, in consideration of Isis collaborative efforts and the licenses granted hereunder, Archemix will pay Isis a royalty on Net Sales of such Licensed Products equal to the greater of (i) the applicable Sublicense Revenue rate set forth in Section 5.3.1 or 5.3.2 above multiplied by the [***] Archemix is [***] under such Sublicense, or (ii) [***]% of Net Sales of such Licensed Products. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that of all of the Isis Patent Rights licensed hereunder the only Patent used with respect to a particular Licensed Product is an Isis Manufacturing Patent, then the Parties will negotiate in good faith a [***] Net Sales of such Licensed Product.
5.4.2 Reduction of Royalties. If the exclusive license granted to Archemix under Section 2.1.1(z) becomes non-exclusive with respect to a Licensed Product, during the period of non-exclusivity the otherwise applicable royalty rate on Net Sales for such Licensed Product payable to Isis under Section 5.4.1 will be reduced by [***]%; provided, however, that in no event will the royalty payable to Isis on Net Sales of Licensed Products be reduced to less than [***]%.
5.4.3 Royalty Term for Licensed Products. Archemix will pay Isis a royalty on Net Sales of Licensed Products, in each country in which the Licensed Products are manufactured, used or sold, from the date of first commercial sale of the Licensed Products until the expiration of the last-to-expire Valid Claim within an Isis Patent in such country that covers (a) the manufacture, use, or sale of the Licensed Product, and/or (b) a method used in the discovery, identification or characterization of the Licensed Product. For purposes of clarity, notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if a Licensed Product is made in a country where, but for the licenses granted hereunder, it would infringe a Valid Claim of an Isis Patent, then Archemix will be obligated to pay a royalty on Net Sales of such Licensed Product in any country.

Section 5.7 Currency; Foreign Payments. If any currency conversion will be required in connection with any payment hereunder, such conversion will be made by using the exchange rate for the purchase of U.S. dollars as published in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, on the last Business Day of the calendar quarter to which such payments relate. If at any time legal restrictions prevent the prompt remittance of any payments in any jurisdiction, Archemix may notify Isis and make such payments by depositing the amount thereof in local currency in a bank account or other depository in such country in the name of Isis or its designee, and Archemix will have no further obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto.
Section 5.8 Taxes. Archemix may deduct from any amounts it is required to pay to Isis pursuant to this Agreement an amount equal to that withheld for or due on account of any taxes (other than taxes imposed on or measured by net income) or similar governmental charge imposed by a jurisdiction based on such payments to Isis (Withholding Taxes). Archemix will provide Isis a certificate evidencing payment of any Withholding Taxes hereunder within [***] days of such payment and will reasonably assist Isis, at Isis expense, to obtain the benefit of any applicable tax treaty.
Section 5.9 Records Retention; Audit.
5.9.1 Record Retention. Archemix will maintain (and will contractually require that the Archemix Sublicensees maintain) complete and accurate books, records and accounts that fairly reflect Net Sales with respect to the Licensed Products, in each case in sufficient detail to confirm the accuracy of any payments required hereunder and in accordance with GAAP, which books, records and accounts will be retained by Archemix until the later of (i) [***] years after the end of the period to which such books, records and accounts pertain, and (ii) the expiration of the applicable tax statute of limitations (or any extensions thereof), or for such longer period as may be required by Applicable Law.
5.9.2 Audit. Isis will have the right to have an independent certified public accounting firm of nationally recognized standing, reasonably acceptable to Archemix, have access during normal business hours, and upon reasonable prior written notice, to Archemixs records as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of Net Sales or Sublicense Revenue, as applicable, for any calendar quarter or calendar year ending not more than [***] months prior to the date of such request; provided, however, that Isis will not have the right to

conduct more than one such audit in any Calendar Year except as provided below or more than one such audit covering any given time period. Isis will require such accounting firm to enter into a confidentiality agreement with Archemix in a form reasonably acceptable to Archemix prior to the conduct of any audit. The accounting firm will disclose to Isis only whether the Net Sales and/or Sublicense Revenue has been correctly reported, the specific detail concerning any discrepancies, and the corrected amount of Net Sales and/or Sublicense Revenue payments. Isis will bear the cost of such audit unless the audit reveals an underpayment to Isis of more than [***]%, in which case Archemix will bear the cost of the audit. In any agreement for a Sublicense granted by Archemix hereunder, Archemix will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to secure a similar right on the part of Archemix to audit its Archemix Sublicensee, and, if reasonably requested in writing by Isis, will enforce such audit right and disclose its audit report to Isiss auditors.
5.9.3 Payment of Additional Amounts. If, based on the results of such audit, additional payments are owed by Archemix under this Agreement, Archemix will make such additional payments, with interest as set forth in Section 5.6, within [***] days after the date on which such accounting firms written report is delivered to such Party.

the assigning Partys obligations under this Agreement or (ii) Isis may assign or transfer its rights under Article 5 (but not liabilities) to a Third Party in connection with a royalty factoring transaction.

The Parties agree to use good faith, reasonable efforts to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision with a legal, valid and enforceable provision that achieves similar economic and non-economic effects as the severed provision.
Section 14.3 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, USA without reference to any rules of conflicts of laws.
Section 14.4 Dispute Resolution.
14.4.1 General. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising from or related to this Agreement or the breach thereof will first be referred to the attention of the Chief Executive Officer of Archemix and the Executive Vice President and CFO of Isis (the Executive Officers) by notice in writing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Executive Officers (or their respective designees) will meet as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, and use their good faith efforts to mutually agree upon the resolution of the dispute, controversy or claim. If any dispute, controversy or claim is not resolved by the designated officers of the Parties (or their designees) within [***] days after such dispute is referred to them, then the Parties agree that such dispute will be referred to mediation, and if the dispute remains unresolved after mediation, either Party will have the right to arbitrate such dispute in accordance with Section 14.4.3; provided, however, that any dispute relating to the construction or validity of any Patent will not be subject to arbitration.
14.4.2 Mediation. If the Parties pursue mediation proceedings the Parties will attempt to resolve such dispute in accordance with the Commercial Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), before resorting to arbitration in accordance with Section 14.4.3 below. The mediation will be conducted by a single mediator experienced in the business and technology that is the subject of this Agreement. The place of mediation will be in Denver, Colorado. Either Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for interim injunctive relief until the mediation decision is rendered or the dispute, controversy or claim is otherwise resolved.
14.4.3 Arbitration. If the Parties do not fully settle any dispute, controversy or claim pursuant to Section 14.4.1 or 14.4.2 and a Party wishes to pursue the matter further, each such dispute, controversy or claim will be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA, and judgment on the arbitration award may
Portions of this Exhibit were omitted and have been filed separately with the Secretary of the Commission pursuant to the Companys application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 406 of the Securities Act.
17
be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitration will be conducted by three arbitrators, one chosen by each Party and the third chosen by the other two arbitrators. If the two arbitrators selected by the Parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator, the arbitrator will be appointed by the AAA. No individual will be appointed to arbitrate a dispute pursuant to this Agreement unless he or she agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 14.4. The place of arbitration will be Denver, Colorado. Either Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved.
14.4.4 Disputes Regarding Material Breach. If the Parties are in dispute as to whether one party is in material breach of this Agreement, then the mediator or arbitrators will first determine if material breach has in fact occurred, and if so, will grant the defaulting Party the cure period provided pursuant to Section 10.1. If the material breach is not cured within the time period provided pursuant to Section 10.1, the mediation or arbitration will continue and the mediator or arbitrators will, as part of the same mediation or arbitration, award actual direct damages to the non-defaulting Party.
14.4.5 Costs and Expenses. Except as expressly provided herein, each Party will bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys fees and an equal share of the mediators and/or arbitrators and any administrative fees of mediation and arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of arbitration, if a Party has been found to be in material and willful breach of this Agreement, the defaulting Party will be responsible for both Parties costs and expenses (including the costs of the arbitrators and any administrative fees of arbitration) and the reasonable attorneys fees of the non-defaulting Party; provided, however, that the total amount of such fees and expenses the defaulting Party is required to reimburse the non-defaulting Party will not exceed the total amount of monetary damages awarded to the non-defaulting Party as a result of such material breach.
14.4.6 Procedure. Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or as may be required by Applicable Law, neither a Party, a mediator, nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of a mediation or an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. In no event will an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable New York statute of limitations.
14.4.7 Speedy Resolution. The Parties intend, and will take all reasonable action as is necessary or desirable to ensure, that there be a speedy resolution to any dispute which becomes the subject of mediation or arbitration, and the mediator and arbitrators will conduct the mediation or arbitration so as to resolve the dispute as expeditiously as possible.
14.4.8 Awards. In any mediation, a decision or opinion issued by the mediator regarding the dispute between the Parties is non-binding. The arbitrators may award monetary damages and injunctive relief. Monetary damages may be in the form of off-set royalties or otherwise, to account for the damages to the non-defaulting Party from the breach, and to account for the defaulting Partys contribution to the Licensed Product in view of the breach. All awards will be in writing and will state reasons. Executed copies of all awards will be delivered
