Takeda may participate in any meeting and other communication with the FDA, if such participation is permitted by the FDA, or if requested by BioNumerik. 4.6 Orange Book Listing. Based on BioNumerik's judgment and determination, and in consultation with Takeda, BioNumerik will file appropriate information with the FDA listing any Licensed Patent, patents in the BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information and patents referred to in Article XII in the FDA's "Orange Book" as a patent related to the Product. BioNumerik will use Commercially Diligent Efforts to maintain the listing in the Orange Book until the expiration, disclamation, withdrawal, cancellation, surrender, invalidation or holding of unenforceability of all of the Licensed Patents. If Takeda identifies a Licensed Patent that should 24 be listed in the Orange Book and which BioNumerik has not listed, Takeda will notify BioNumerik, in writing, of the Licensed Patent and the reasons it believes that such Licensed Patent should be listed. Within ten (10) business days, BioNumerik will respond, in writing, that it will file appropriate papers with the FDA to list the Licensed Patent in the Orange Book, or BioNumerik will give reasons why it does not believe that the Patent should or can be listed. Any dispute will follow the procedures laid out in Article XIX.

BioNumerik has the right to co-promote the Product with Takeda in the United States in accordance with this Agreement. 6.4 Preparation of Promotional Materials. Both Parties will have the responsibility to prepare, in close collaboration with each other through the Promotion Committee and as approved by the Joint Steering Committee, promotional materials for their use in the Territory consistent with the Marketing Plan. Takeda will indicate BioNumerik's corporate name and/or logo on labels, packages, package inserts, or promotional materials, etc. for the Products in such reasonable shape, color and size so as to render the indication plainly discernible, to the extent permitted by applicable law, regulations and guidelines in the Territory, with prior review and approval by BioNumerik. 28 6.5 Preparation of Training Materials. Both Parties will have the responsibility to prepare, in consultation with each other, training materials for their use in the Territory consistent with the Marketing Plan. 6.6 Recall. Voluntary recall of the Product in each country of the Territory will be determined by mutual agreement of both Parties; provided, however, Takeda as a distributor and seller of the Product may start procedures for the recall of the Product in the case of emergency event by Takeda's own good faith determination, keeping BioNumerik informed of the progress of such procedures. All costs and liabilities for the recall arising out of negligence or willful misconduct by one Party or the breach of representations or warranties by one Party will be borne by such Party to the extent caused by such Party, and such Party will indemnify the other Party in accordance with Article XVI. 6.7 Non-Compete. Neither BioNumerik nor Takeda will market or promote [**] in competition with the Product in the Territory during the term of this Agreement, except with prior written consent or agreement by the other Party. BioNumerik will not cause or encourage third parties to import the Product into the Territory for sale in the Territory and BioNumerik will use Commercially Diligent Efforts to oppose the importation by third parties of the Product into the Territory for marketing and distribution in the Territory. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement or by a separate written agreement between the Parties, BioNumerik will not directly or indirectly distribute or sell Product in the Territory. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement or by a separate written agreement between the Parties, Takeda will not directly or indirectly manufacture Product to be sold in the Territory or manufacture, market, distribute or sell Product outside the Territory. ARTICLE VII CANADA 7.1 Development. Article IV will apply, mutatis mutandis, to development of the Product in Canada; provided, however, that both Parties agree that each will conduct its [**] CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO THE OMITTED PORTIONS. 29 obligations regarding the development of the Product in Canada after consultation with the other Party. 7.2 Marketing and Promotion. Notwithstanding Section 6.1, in consultation with BioNumerik, Takeda will have an option not to start promotion or marketing of the Product in Canada until the later of (a) two (2) years after the commercial launch of the Product in the United States, and (b) sixty (60) days after marketing approval of the Product by the Regulatory Agency in Canada, provided that if Takeda does not start promotion or marketing of the Product in Canada by such time, then all rights granted under Section 2.1 regarding Canada would revert back to BioNumerik. In addition, at any time after commercial launch of the Product in Canada. Takeda, upon six (6) months written notice to BioNumerik, may suspend, discontinue, or terminate promotion or marketing of the Product in Canada, in which event, all rights granted under Section 2.1 regarding Canada would revert back to BioNumerik. In addition, in the event of reversion to BioNumerik of rights concerning Canada pursuant to this Section 7.2, Takeda will transfer to BioNumerik, with the right to sublicense, all necessary data and information possessed by Takeda for BioNumerik to develop and commercialize the Product in Canada. Before or after the time of any such reversion of Canada rights to BioNumerik, commercial launch and marketing of the Product in Canada will be subject to Joint Steering Committee approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld by either Party. Also, if BioNumerik alleges a breach of the Agreement by Takeda under Section 15.4(a) and the basis for Takeda's breach is solely a breach of its obligation to use Commercially Diligent Efforts to promote and market the Product in Canada, then BioNumerik's remedy will be the reversion of all rights granted under Section 2.1 regarding Canada to BioNumerik, as well as the transfer by Takeda to BioNumerik of all necessary data and information possessed by Takeda for BioNumerik to develop and commercialize the Product in Canada. If Takeda's Canadian license reverts back to BioNumerik, then BioNumerik, and its sublicensees, may develop and market the Product in Canada. ARTICLE VIII PAYMENTS, COSTS, STOCK TRANSFER, AND REPORTS 8.1 Initial Payment. The Parties agree that Takeda will acquire from BioNumerik, and BioNumerik will issue to Takeda, shares of (a) Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, par 30 value $0.01 per share (the "Series I Preferred Stock"), and (b) Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series J Preferred Stock" and together with the Series I Preferred Stock, the "Preferred Stock"), in the respective amounts provided herein, for aggregate cash consideration of fifty-two million US dollars (US$52,000,000) (the "Aggregate Preferred Stock Purchase Price"), in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of that Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C and which will be executed by the Parties on the Effective Date of this Agreement (the "Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement"). The number of shares of Series I Preferred Stock initially will be 1,123,417 shares at an initial purchase price of US$34.7929 per share (the aggregate initial Series I Preferred Stock value, i.e., the initial purchase price per share multiplied by the initial number of shares, the "Initial Series I Value"), provided that in the event of a BioNumerik IPO within one year after the Effective Date, the purchase price and number of shares of Series I Preferred Stock will be adjusted, immediately following the exercise or expiration of any underwriters' over-allotment option granted in connection with the BioNumerik IPO (the aggregate adjusted Series I Preferred Stock value, i.e., the adjusted purchase price per share multiplied by the adjusted number of shares, the "Adjusted Series I Value"), so that the adjusted purchase price will equal the IPO Price and the number of adjusted shares of Series I Preferred Stock will equal the lesser of (i) that number of shares of Series I Preferred stock that on an as-converted basis would represent 9.99% of BioNumerik's then outstanding common stock, par value $ 0.01 (the "Common Shares") and Preferred Stock (calculated on an as converted basis) (taking such offering into account) but exclusive of any Common Shares issuable pursuant to options granted but unexercised pursuant to BioNumerik's stock option or stock purchase plans or warrants issued but unexercised in connection with certain other preferred stock issuances or (ii) that number of shares of Series I Preferred Stock determined by dividing the Aggregate Preferred Stock Purchase Price by the IPO Price; provided that if the Pre-Transaction Valuation is less than US$400.00 million, the adjusted number of shares of Series I Preferred Stock will be 1,362,930. The number of shares of Series J Preferred Stock initially will be 265,101 shares at a purchase price of US$48.7100 per share, provided that in the event of a BioNumerik IPO, if completed within one year after the Effective Date, the purchase price and number of shares of Series J Preferred Stock will be adjusted so that the adjusted purchase price per share will equal the 31 product of 1.40 multiplied by the IPO Price (the "Adjusted Series J Price Per Share") and the adjusted number of shares will be a number equal to (i) the difference of the Aggregate Preferred Stock Purchase Price less the Adjusted Series I Value divided by (ii) the Adjusted Series J Price Per Share; provided that if such difference is zero (0) or negative, then no Series J Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding. The terms and provisions of the Preferred Stock will be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit 1 to the Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement. Contemporaneous with the execution of the Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, Takeda and BioNumerik will execute a Registration Rights Agreement substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit 2 to the Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement"). Immediately following the determination of the Adjusted Series I Value and related adjustments to the purchase price and number of shares of Series I Preferred Stock in the event of a BioNumerik IPO, if completed within one year following the Effective Date, the Series I Preferred Stock will automatically convert into Common Shares (the Series I Preferred Stock, in accordance with its terms, will also automatically convert into common stock in the event of a BioNumerik IPO at any time following the one year anniversary of the Effective Date). The Series I Preferred Stock will also be convertible, at the election of Takeda, at any time upon a "Corporate Reorganization" (as defined in Series I Preferred Stock designation) or after the first anniversary of the Effective Date. The Series J Preferred Stock will be convertible, at the election of Takeda, at any time upon a "Corporate Reorganization" (as defined in Series J Preferred Stock designation) or after the first anniversary of the Effective Date, will not be automatically convertible upon a BioNumerik IPO, and will be mandatorily convertible at BioNumerik's election and upon written notice to Takeda at any time following the one year anniversary of the Effective Date provided that the closing price or last sale price of the Common Shares on each of the ten (10) business days preceding BioNumerik's delivery of such notice of conversion shall have equaled or exceeded the then applicable conversion price of the Series J Preferred Stock. Furthermore, to the extent then outstanding and provided that a BioNumerik IPO has occurred, shares of Series J 32 Preferred Stock will automatically convert into Common Shares at the then applicable conversion price upon the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date. Although the Series I Preferred Stock and Series J Preferred Stock will vote on an as converted basis together with other classes and series of BioNumerik capital stock on matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, Takeda hereby agrees with BioNumerik, as set forth in the separately-executed Voting Agreement Form attached hereto as Exhibit J, to vote all shares of BioNumerik capital stock held by Takeda or its Affiliates at any time until the earlier of three years after launch of the Product in the Territory or five years after the date of execution of this Agreement in accordance, at Takeda's election, with either (i) the recommendation of the BioNumerik Board of Directors to shareholders with respect to such matter, or (ii) in a proportionate manner that allocates Takeda's votes with respect to any such matter in the same relative percentages as are recorded by BioNumerik with respect to the properly submitted votes of other shareholders of BioNumerik as to such matter; provided, however, that in accordance with the terms of the Preferred Stock the holders of Series I Preferred Stock and Series J Preferred Stock will have separate class voting rights with respect to any proposed amendments to the terms of such series of Preferred Stock and the foregoing voting arrangement between Takeda and BioNumerik will not apply to Takeda's voting on any such proposed amendment to the terms of such series of Preferred Stock. 8.2 Milestone Payments. Within [**] after the NDA for the Product has been filed by BioNumerik and such NDA filing has been accepted by the FDA in the United States, Takeda will pay to BioNumerik the sum of sixty million US dollars (US $60,000,000). Takeda will further pay to BioNumerik, within [**] after the launch of the Product in the United States, the sum of sixty million US dollars (US $60,000,000). The term "launch" used in this section means the first receipt of the Product by commercial entities such as wholesalers, distributors, pharmacies and hospitals in the United States, after the NDA approval of the Product and not for the purpose of non-clinical or clinical studies. 8.3 Commercial Milestone Payments. For the first Fiscal Year during which sales of the Product in the Territory reach each of the following indicated annual Net Sales levels, [**] CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO THE OMITTED PORTIONS. 33 Takeda will pay Commercial Milestone Payments to BioNumerik in the amounts and at the times described below:
ANNUAL NET SALES IN THE TERRITORY PAYMENT IN A FISCAL YEAR TO BIONUMERIK - --------------------------------- --------------------------------- Two hundred million US dollars Twenty million US dollars (US (US $200,000,000) $20,000,000) Four hundred million US dollars Twenty million US dollars (US (US $400,000,000) $20,000,000) Six hundred million US dollars Thirty million US dollars (US (US $600,000,000) $30,000,000) Eight hundred million US dollars Forty-five million US dollars (US (US $800,000,000) $45,000,000)
In other words, in the first Fiscal Year that annual Net Sales in the Territory reach US$200,000,000, Takeda will pay BioNumerik US$20,000,000. If, in the next Fiscal Year, annual Net Sales reach only US$300,000,000, then no payment is made, and if, in the following Fiscal Year, annual Net Sales reach US$500,000,000, Takeda will pay BioNumerik an additional US$20,000,000. The following example is intended to help clarify the arrangement and is for clarification purposes only. In the event the actual annual Net Sales for the Product are US$100,000,000 in 2008, US$300,000,000 in 2009, US$700,000,000 in 2010, US$900,000,000 in 2011 and US$1,100,000,000 in 2012, then each Commercial Milestone Payment would be as follows: no payment in 2008; US$20,000,000 in 2009; US$50,000,000 in 2010 (US$20,000,000 for US$400,000,000 sales plus US$30,000,000 for US$600,000,000 sales); US$45,000,000 in 2011; and no payment in 2012 and thereafter. Thus, each Commercial Milestone Payment occurs only once during the life of this Agreement and only when the annual Net Sales reach the particular 34 amount shown in a given Fiscal Year. At the same time as the accounting is reported after the end of a quarter, Takeda will pay to BioNumerik the annual Commercial Milestone Payment if the annual Net Sales reach the particular amount shown in a given Fiscal Year to date required to achieve such Commercial Milestone Payment during that preceding quarter. 8.4 Research and Development Payments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8.4, Takeda agrees to pay BioNumerik up to the following maximum annual Research and Development Payments in the following calendar years to develop the Product for the Territory:
2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 Total - ----------------- ------------------- ----------- -------------- -------------- ------------------ Thirty million US Thirty-five million Thirty-five Thirty million Eight million One hundred dollars (US US dollars million US US dollars (US US dollars (US thirty-eight $30,000,000) (US$35,000,000) dollars (US $30,000,000) $8,000,000) million US dollars $35,000,000) (US $138,000,000)
(b) Within [**] after April 1st of each year, beginning with calendar 2005 and ending with calendar 2009, Takeda will pay BioNumerik in cash the first one-half of the annual Research and Development Payments for such year. For clarity and example, Takeda will pay BioNumerik fifteen million US dollars within [**] after April 1, 2005. (c) Takeda will satisfy its obligation to pay the remaining one-half of annual Research and Development Payments not otherwise paid pursuant to subsection (b) above by purchasing for cash, during each such year, Common Shares as follows: (i) Takeda will have the right in connection with any public or private offering of securities during such year by BioNumerik primarily for capital-raising purposes (but excluding, without limitation, shares issuable pursuant to an acquisition, another strategic alliance or [**] CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO THE OMITTED PORTIONS. 35 licensing arrangement and shares issued pursuant to employee, director or consultant benefit plans) to acquire the lesser of (i) 20% of the number of Common Shares to be issued in each such offering; or (ii) the maximum number of Common Shares which, when aggregated with Takeda's existing holdings of Common Shares and Preferred Stock at the time, will result in Takeda's holdings not exceeding 9.99% of BioNumerik's outstanding Common Shares and Preferred Stock (calculated on an as converted basis) (taking such offering into account) exclusive of any Common Shares issuable pursuant to options or warrants granted but unexercised pursuant to BioNumerik's stock option or stock purchase plans or warrants issued but unexercised in connection with preferred stock issuances, at a price per share and otherwise on terms and conditions made available to other bona fide purchasers in any such offering, with such purchase by Takeda to be made concurrently with the closing of such other offering, and (ii) at any time during such calendar year as BioNumerik will elect upon at least one hundred twenty (120) days advance written notice to Takeda, (x) Takeda and BioNumerik will complete a separate sale or sales of Common Shares to Takeda at a price equal to the fair market value of such Common Shares based upon the average closing price or last sale price over the 10-business day period immediately preceding the sale, if BioNumerik is then a reporting company under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), or, (y) if BioNumerik is not then a reporting company under the Exchange Act, Takeda and BioNumerik may agree upon a separate sale or sales of Common Shares to Takeda at such fair market value price as may be mutually agreed by BioNumerik and Takeda. If, within sixty (60) days after commencement of efforts by BioNumerik and Takeda to agree upon a fair market value price for Common Shares in accordance with the 36 immediately preceding sentence, the Parties have been unable to so agree, then either Party, upon notice to the other Party, may elect to have the fair market value price determined as follows: (A) For a period of twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice, the Parties will attempt to agree upon an investment banking firm to determine the fair market value price for Common Shares and, if the Parties cannot agree upon an investment banking firm to make such determination within such period, then, with forty (40) days after receipt of the notice referenced above, each Party, by notice to the other Party, will name one internationally recognized investment banking firm not otherwise associated or doing business with such Party and such two investment banking firms will mutually select a third internationally recognized investment banking firm, which will then determine the fair market value price for Common Shares; and (B) Each Party may provide the investment banking firm selected to determine the fair market price value for Common Shares such materials and other written information, with copies to the other Party, as such Party believes relevant to such determination within ten (10) business days after such firm's selection. The investment banking firm will determine a fair market value price for Common Shares within sixty (60) days after its selection. Once the fair market value price for Common Shares has been determined by the investment banking firm, as provided above, the investment banking firm will notify both Parties of such value in writing, and the corresponding 37 purchase of Common Shares pursuant to this Section 8.4 will be closed within thirty (30) days of such notification. The decision of the investment banking firm will be final and binding on the Parties. All costs and fees incurred by the investment banking firm(s) in connection with the procedures described above will be borne equally by the Parties. In addition, with respect to purchases of the Common Shares in private offerings only, as a condition to each such purchase, Takeda and BioNumerik will execute and deliver, and the purchase and sale of the Common Shares will be made in accordance with, a Common Stock Purchase Agreement substantially in the form of attached Exhibit D. All Common Shares purchased by Takeda under this subsection (c) will be subject to the Registration Rights Agreement. (d) BioNumerik will have the right, in its sole discretion, in any particular calendar year, not to sell some or all of the Common Shares relating to such year to Takeda pursuant to clause (ii) of subsection (c); provided, however, that BioNumerik will have no such right to the extent that it initiates the procedures to select an investment banking firm to determine the fair market value price in accordance with Section 8.4(c) above with respect to the Common Shares subject to such valuation procedures. If, for any reason, BioNumerik is unable or unwilling to sell Common Shares to Takeda or Takeda is otherwise limited under this Section 8.4 from acquiring Common Shares, in either case in an amount sufficient for Takeda to satisfy its entire Research and Development funding obligation hereunder for any calendar year, then upon written notice to Takeda prior to the end of such calendar year, BioNumerik may elect to carry over such Takeda purchase commitment (to the extent of the Research and Development Payment amount for such calendar year that is not paid during such year pursuant to Section 8.4(c), being referred to as the "Carryover Amount", expressed in U.S. dollars) to the immediately following calendar year (together with Takeda's other Common Share purchase commitments for such following year), but if, in such following calendar year, BioNumerik is unable or unwilling to sell Common Shares to Takeda or if Takeda is otherwise limited under this Section 8.4 from acquiring Common Shares, in either case in such following year in an 38 amount sufficient to satisfy such Carryover Amount (and all shares sold by BioNumerik to Takeda in such following year will be first allocated to satisfy the Carryover Amount) then Takeda's obligation to purchase any additional Common Shares pursuant to subsection (c) for the immediately preceding calendar year to which such Carryover Amount relates will terminate. BioNumerik, in its discretion, may sell Common Shares to Takeda to allow the satisfaction of some, but not all, of Takeda's funding commitment amount, in which event any remaining unsatisfied commitment amount would be carried over subject to the limitations described above. Similarly, to the extent a delay in the sale of Common Shares is agreed to by the Parties pursuant to Section 8.4(f) to enable Takeda to avoid a potential liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the amount of any such deferred Research and Development Payment will be treated as a Carryover Amount to such following calendar year. To the extent any unpurchased amount of Common Shares in any calendar year does not become a Carryover Amount for the following year in accordance with the terms of the immediately preceding sentences, then Takeda's obligation to purchase such amount shall terminate. If, for any reason, BioNumerik is unable or unwilling to sell Common Shares to Takeda or Takeda is otherwise limited under this Section 8.4 from acquiring Common Shares, then in either case the costs for the clinical and non-clinical development of the Product in the Field for the Territory in accordance with the Development Plan exceeding Takeda's payment of half of the maximum annual Research and Development Payment pursuant to Section 8.4(b) will be borne solely by BioNumerik, but subject to the provisions of Section 8.4(h). (e) Anything else in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, except as otherwise agreed by BioNumerik, Takeda will not purchase Common Shares pursuant to this Section 8.4 to the extent that Takeda's ownership of BioNumerik Common Shares and Preferred Stock then actually outstanding exceeds, or as a result of such purchase would exceed, 9.99% of BioNumerik's then outstanding Common Shares and Preferred Stock (calculated on an as converted basis) exclusive of any Common Shares issuable pursuant to options or warrants granted but unexercised pursuant to BioNumerik's stock option or stock purchase plans or warrants issued but unexercised in connection with certain other previous preferred stock issuances; provided however, that BioNumerik and Takeda will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with one another, pursuant to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement and otherwise, so that Takeda will be afforded the opportunity not less often than once every two 39 years through the calendar year 2010 to effectuate in an orderly fashion sales of Common Shares held by Takeda in the principal U.S. securities markets, if any, in which BioNumerik's Common Shares are then traded (including, without limitation, in an underwritten public offering, which may involve, at Takeda's election, selling efforts by BioNumerik's management team; in negotiated block trades arranged by BioNumerik's or Takeda's principal investment banking firms; or in sales pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act), and in the amount of up to 50% of Takeda's then-current holdings of Common Shares and Preferred Stock (calculated on an as converted basis); provided, however, if the Parties successfully arrange any such sale opportunity and any Common Shares (including Common Shares issuable upon conversion of any Preferred Stock that can be converted) can then be sold by Takeda at a price per share in excess of the acquisition price for such Common Shares (or the acquisition price for the underlying Preferred Stock), Takeda will at that time sell all of such Common Shares to the extent that the number of Common Shares to be sold is equal to the greater of (i) 25% of Takeda's holdings of Common Shares and Preferred Stock (calculated on an as converted basis) (provided that 18 months or more will have elapsed since Takeda was last required to sell or dispose of Common Shares based upon such 25% standard); and (ii) the minimum number of Common Shares which, when aggregated with reasonably foreseeable Common Share purchase obligations under Section 8.4(c) for such calendar year, will result in Takeda's holdings not exceeding 9.99% of BioNumerik's then outstanding Common Shares and Preferred Stock (calculated on an as converted basis) exclusive of any Common Shares issuable pursuant to options or warrants granted but unexercised pursuant to BioNumerik's stock option or stock purchase plans or warrants issued but unexercised in connection with certain other previous preferred stock issuances. Takeda, in its discretion, may also sell additional Common Shares in such transaction up to the 50% limitation described in the prior sentence of this Section 8.4(e). Anything in this Section 8.4(e) to the contrary notwithstanding, Takeda will have no restrictions on sale of Common Shares hereunder in the event of (i) any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of BioNumerik, or any sale or related series of sales of shares of BioNumerik's capital stock by any holders thereof or any merger, consolidation or combination to which BioNumerik is a party and which results in the beneficial owners of BioNumerik's Common Shares as of the date immediately preceding such transaction or related series of transactions no longer beneficially owing the capital stock of BioNumerik (or any new or surviving corporation with which 40 BioNumerik merges, consolidates or combines) possessing the voting power (under ordinary circumstances) to elect a majority of the board of directors, (ii) any sale or other disposition by Dr. Fred Hausheer, in one or a series of related transactions, of 50% or more of the Common Shares beneficially owned by Dr. Fred Hausheer over any two-year period, or (iii) the termination of this Agreement. However, Takeda hereby agrees that Takeda will not sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of the Preferred Stock (though Takeda may convert the Preferred Stock and sell the underlying Common Shares in accordance with the provisions hereof) except (i) upon or following the occurrence of any of the events specified in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence and (ii) for transfers to Affiliates of Takeda or to a successor to substantially all of the business or assets of Takeda in a transfer permitted under Section 11.1 (which in either case undertakes in connection with such transfer to be similarly bound to comply with this undertaking). (f) Anything in this Section 8.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, Takeda will have no obligation to purchase or sell the Common Shares or otherwise take any other action to the extent that any such purchase, sale, or other action would violate the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other applicable federal or state securities law, or result in any liability to Takeda under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other applicable federal or state securities law. To the extent that Takeda is at any time deemed a holder of 10% or more of the shares of BioNumerik's outstanding common stock or is otherwise a person subject to the reporting and short-swing profit provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, both Parties will cooperate, to the extent reasonably necessary as identified by Takeda, to arrange the timing of Takeda sales activity pursuant to Section 8.4(e) and Takeda purchases from BioNumerik pursuant to Sections 8.4(c) and 8.4(d) so as accomplish the objectives of not creating liability for Takeda under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and positioning Takeda to make purchases contemplated by Section 8.4(c) to fund Research and Development Payments. (g) Research and Development Payments made by Takeda pursuant to Section 8.4(b) will be allocated solely for the clinical and non-clinical development of the Product in the Field for the Territory in accordance with the Development Plan. Any portion of a Research and Development Payment received for a particular calendar year that is not spent in that particular calendar year may be deferred, as reasonably determined by BioNumerik, to be used in the 41 following calendar year. BioNumerik will provide to Takeda a quarterly accounting regarding the costs for such development within thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar quarter of the Fiscal Year. BioNumerik will send Takeda a written report setting forth the reasonable costs that it incurred for the clinical and non-clinical development. Each cost will be described and the date on which the cost was paid will be included. (h) Subject to the limitations of this Section 8.4, the total amount of the Research and Development Payments made solely by Takeda between the calendar years 2005 and 2009 will be one hundred and thirty eight million US dollars (US$138,000,000). All additional required clinical and non-clinical investment in any particular calendar year that is in excess of the Research and Development Payments made by Takeda as set forth in Section 8.4(a) above will be borne equally by BioNumerik and Takeda, provided that the Parties mutually agree to the additional work to be done. Further, all subsequent required clinical and non-clinical investment over US$138,000,000 for the Product in the Field in the Territory will be borne equally by BioNumerik and Takeda for the Product, if the costs are agreed to in writing by both Parties in the Development Plan. Costs for clinical and non-clinical studies will include actual payments to service providers such as contract research organizations ("CROs"), consultants, clinical and non-clinical drug supply and materials, as well as actual payments and indirect costs for regulatory filing fees, regulatory document preparation and copying costs, and each Party's internal direct and indirect costs reasonably allocated to such studies and materials for such studies and regulatory filings, regarding the Product in the Field for the Territory. (i) BioNumerik agrees that, for the Applicable Period (as defined below), it will pay to Takeda within thirty (30) days after each calendar quarter, one-half of all Manufacturing Net Profits (as defined below) earned by BioNumerik during the preceding calendar quarter with respect to BioNumerik's manufacturing rights for Venture Products BN (as defined in the KI Pharma Joint Venture Agreement a copy of which definition is attached hereto as Exhibit I). For purposes hereof, "Manufacturing Net Profits" means, for any relevant period, aggregate sales of the Venture Products BN by BioNumerik, as manufacturer, to the KI Pharma Joint Venture less (i) fully allocated cost of manufacturing the Venture Products BN in a final packaged form, and (ii) overhead (fixed and variable costs associated with management and support of the manufacturing process) allocated to the Venture Products BN, all calculated in 42 accordance with normal accounting practices applied on a basis consistent with BioNumerik's past practices and industry standards for all products manufactured in a fully utilized facility or normal capacity. "Applicable Period" means the period commencing upon the first receipt of the Venture Products BN by commercial entities such as wholesalers, distributors, pharmacies and hospitals in Japan, after receipt of required regulatory approvals in connection therewith and not for the purpose of non-clinical or clinical studies and ending after a period thereafter equal to the number of days from the Effective Date to the date the BioNumerik IPO occurs, provided that if the BioNumerik IPO occurs within 365 days after the Effective Date the applicable period will be zero (0) days. (j) From the date of execution of this Agreement until the Effective Date, BioNumerik agrees that it will not issue or grant any shares of Common Shares or Preferred Stock (other than in connection with the BioNumerik IPO and in connection with the exercise of previously granted stock options or warrants in the ordinary course) or any options or warrants to acquire any such shares or any other securities or instruments convertible into such shares. (k) BioNumerik covenants and agrees that it will not cause the BioNumerik IPO to occur until the earlier of (i) BioNumerik's obtaining of all necessary approvals by BioNumerik's shareholders of the issuance of the Preferred Stock and the Common Shares and the execution of the Registration Rights Agreement, as provided in this Agreement, or (ii) BioNumerik's failure, after full discharge of its obligations under this Agreement to attempt to obtain shareholder approvals, to obtain all such approvals. ARTICLE IX PROVISIONAL PRICE AND PROFIT SHARE 9.1 Provisional Price. Takeda agrees to pay BioNumerik a Provisional Price for each unit of Product that BioNumerik supplies to Takeda. 9.2 Profit Share. Net Profits will be determined by the following equation: Net Profits = Net Sales minus Incurred Costs Net Profits will be shared equally between BioNumerik and Takeda as follows: 43 (a) If Net Profits are positive, then each Party will receive fifty percent (50%) of Net Profits; however, the Provisional Margin paid by Takeda to BioNumerik as part of the Provisional Price will be deducted from BioNumerik's share of the Net Profits. (b) If Net Profits are negative, then each Party will bear fifty percent (50%) of the loss of Net Profits. Specifically, in the event that Net Profits are negative, BioNumerik will give back to Takeda all or part of the Provisional Margin plus any additional amount necessary to equal fifty percent (50%) of the loss of Net Profits. (c) All costs for developing and obtaining approval for a new indication beyond oncology will be borne equally by the Parties. However, in the case that one Party does not want to make or cannot afford to bear the costs for the new indication, the other Party has the option to take the responsibility to bear the necessary costs itself. In such event the other Party will cooperate with the Party seeking such new indication with the other Party being reasonably reimbursed for related costs of the cooperation. In the event that (i) the new indication for the Product is successful, the other Party will have the option to reimburse the paying Party [**] of the actual costs incurred for the Product development and approval with respect to the new indication, in which case the other Party will then receive [**] of the Net Profits as described in this Section 9.2 (including, without limitation, [**] of the Net Profits for the new indication), or in the event that (ii) the other Party does not want to pay for such [**] share of the costs for the new indication, then the non-paying Party will receive only [**] of the Net Profits from sales of the Product for the new indication and the paying Party will receive [**] of the Net Profits from sales of the Product for the new indication. (d) The amount of Takeda's costs included in the calculation of the Net Profits will not exceed for each of the first three years from the anniversary date of the "launch" of the Product as defined in Section 8.2 the amounts in the Table 9.2(d) immediately following this section. When the Promotion Committee is discussing the budget to be applied for the fourth year following the launch and thereafter, if the Parties can not agree to the amount of the maximum expenses for these four categories in each of these later years, the Parties understand that, until the Parties have reached agreement on such applicable amount, the default amount of [**] CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO THE OMITTED PORTIONS. 44 the maximum expenses in the fourth year will be [**] of the actual amount spent in the third year, and the default amount in any year thereafter will be [**] of the actual amount spent in the prior year. Both Parties agree that the division of these four categories are not strict and Takeda may reasonably allocate its expenses in one category of them to another category within the total annual maximum amount for each year. Table 9.2(d) Cap on Certain Takeda's Commercialization Costs (in $US Millions) [**] (e) The amount of BioNumerik's costs included in the calculation of the Net Profits will not exceed for each of the first three years from the anniversary date of the "launch" of the Product as defined in Section 8.2 the amounts in the Table 9.2(e) immediately following this section. When the Promotion Committee is discussing the budget to be applied for the fourth year following the launch and thereafter, if the Parties can not agree to the amount of the maximum expenses for these four categories in each of these later years, the Parties understand that, until the Parties have reached agreement on such applicable amount, the default amount of the maximum expenses for these four categories in the fourth year will be 105% of the actual amount spent in the third year, and the default amount in any year thereafter will be 105% of the actual amount spent in the prior year. Both Parties agree that the division of these four categories are not strict and BioNumerik may reasonably allocate its expenses in one category of them to another category within the total annual maximum amount for each year.

9.3 Accounting. Calculation and payment/reimbursement of the Profit Share will be made quarterly, with an adjustment at the end of the Fiscal Year, with the calculation of the Net Profits to begin after the first full quarter following the Effective Date. A statement will be provided by BioNumerik to Takeda of BioNumerik's Incurred Costs within ten (10) business days following the end of each calendar quarter of the Fiscal Year. BioNumerik will send a written report to Takeda detailing its Incurred Costs. Within ten (10) business days of receiving BioNumerik's report, Takeda will send to BioNumerik, a written report setting forth the calculation of the Profit Share payment. Such report will be sent to BioNumerik even when no Product was sold during the calendar quarter. Within thirty (30) days of the date of such Takeda's report, the balance will be paid by a Party to the other Party so that the Net Profits will be equally shared between the parties. For illustration, an example calculation is set forth in Exhibit H hereto. After the Product is launched in the Territory, a monthly accounting will be made by Takeda to BioNumerik within fifteen (15) days following the end of each month of the Fiscal Year. Specifically, Takeda will send to BioNumerik, a written report setting forth the amount and a description of the Product sold during the preceding month and the associated aggregate Net Sales invoiced during the month. A report will be sent to BioNumerik even if no Product is sold during the previous month. 46 Such reports by each Party for the last calendar quarter in a Fiscal Year will include year-end adjustment in accordance with ascertained Net Sales and Incurred Costs if necessary. ARTICLE X WITHHOLDING TAX, AUDIT AND CURRENCY CONVERSION. 10.1 Withholding Tax. In the event that any payment by a Party to the other Party under this Agreement is subject to withholding tax required by applicable laws to be paid to the taxing authority of any country, the amount of such tax may be withheld from the applicable payment. Such Party will promptly pay such tax on behalf of the other Party, and will furnish the other Party with a certificate of withholding tax so deducted or its equivalent for the other Party's avoidance of duplicate taxation. Each Party will cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to the other Party to enable them to obtain necessary documentation and other information necessary to establish any exemptions from or refund of withholding or other payments under applicable tax treaties or other tax laws of applicable countries. 10.2 Maintenance and Auditing of Records. (a) The Parties will keep and will require that their Affiliates and sublicensees keep true and accurate records and books of account containing all data necessary for the calculation of costs for non-clinical and clinical studies undertaken by BioNumerik hereunder, the Commercial Milestone Payments and the Net Profit, including, but not limited to, the Incurred Costs, and Net Sales, profit sharing pursuant to Section 8.4(i), and for preparation of the written reports due hereunder. Those records and books of account will be kept for three (3) years following the end of each Fiscal Year to which they relate. (b) Upon twenty (20) business days notice, each Party may have an independent registered public accounting firm audit the other Party's or Affiliate's or sublicensee's records and books of account to verify that every charge and payment is correctly made in accordance with this Agreement. Such inspections will be no more frequent than once each calendar year during the term of this Agreement, and once within six (6) months after termination of this Agreement. Prior to audit implementation, each Party will submit an audit plan, including audit scope and name(s) of proposed public accounting firm, to the other Party 47 for approval, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. The independent registered public accounting firm will keep confidential any information obtained during such inspection and will only report to the requesting Party the result on whether the item(s) being reviewed is accurate or not and the amount of any inaccuracy or discrepancy. (c) The cost of the accounting firm will be the responsibility of the auditing Party unless the certification shows the audited Party to have underpaid or overcharged the auditing Party by more than five percent (5%) in which case the cost of the accounting firm will be the responsibility of the audited Party. If an audit reveals an over or underpayment or over or undercharge, the Parties will take such steps as necessary to rectify the error. (d) Within ten (10) business days following any such certification any monies which such certification shows as being due and owing by one Party to the other (whether because of an underpayment or overpayment) will be paid by the owing Party. (e) In the conduct of their respective reporting activities under this Agreement, each Party, its Affiliates, or its sublicensees will prepare all accounting information in accordance with United States GAAP or as otherwise directed by the Joint Steering Committee. 10.3 Payments To BioNumerik.

The exchange rate to be used for converting foreign currencies into US dollars will be as published in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern U.S. Edition for the purchase of US dollars on the last business day of the calendar quarter for which the Net Sales and other items are calculated under this Agreement. ARTICLE XI SUBLICENSE AND TRANSFERABILITY OF RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS 11.1 Except as otherwise provided herein, there is no right to sublicense and this Agreement may not be assigned by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party. Each Party may, at its discretion, assign this Agreement in whole or in part to one or more of its Affiliates as well as to a party acquiring all or substantially all of the assigning Party's business or assets, if the assigning Party (if such assigning Party is a surviving entity) remains liable and responsible for and the assignee will be liable and responsible for the performance and observation of all of the Affiliate's obligations hereunder. ARTICLE XII MAINTENANCE OF LICENSED PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS AND OWNERSHIP OF JOINTLY DEVELOPED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, RESULTING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, AND IMPROVEMENTS 12.1 Maintenance of Licensed Patents and Trademarks. BioNumerik hereby agrees (a) to use Commercially Diligent Efforts to file, prosecute and maintain the Licensed Patents and Licensed Trademarks and (b) to proceed to initiate interference, re-examinations, reissues and oppositions with respect thereto, at its costs and pay all necessary fees to assure that the Licensed Patents and Licensed Trademarks do not terminate prematurely. Each calendar quarter, BioNumerik will provide Takeda with reports in writing with detailed information on the status of the Licensed Patents and patents and patent applications constituting BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information. Takeda will have a right to request and, promptly after any such request, receive from BioNumerik reasonable additional information with respect to any patent application and/or patent in the Licensed Patents and patents and patent applications in the BioNumerik's 49 Licensees' Patents and Information. BioNumerik will provide Takeda with a reasonable opportunity to review and provide substantive input to material decisions relating to the prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents. BioNumerik will furnish to Takeda copies of documents relevant to any such prosecution and maintenance reasonably in advance of the expiration of a response or application deadline in order to provide Takeda a meaningful opportunity to comment thereon and to participate in all material decision making regarding such prosecution and maintenance. For purposes of clarification, BioNumerik will consider all substantive input and comments provided by Takeda regarding the prosecution of such patent applications and the maintenance of such patents. BioNumerik may continue to take ministerial and non-material procedural matters regarding the Licensed Patents without obtaining prior input from Takeda. BioNumerik agrees not to finally abandon any claims of the Licensed Patents without providing Takeda written notice of BioNumerik's decision not less than thirty (30) days prior to any deadline or date imposed by an office with authority and jurisdiction in any country in the Territory where such patent application is being prosecuted or such patent is being maintained. Upon receipt of such notice, Takeda may, in its sole discretion, initiate and/or continue prosecution activities with respect to such patent application and/or maintenance activities with respect to such patent, and BioNumerik, upon such Takeda's decision to initiate and/or continue such activities, will assign, deliver, transfer and set over to Takeda all interest of BioNumerik in, to and under such patent application and patent. BioNumerik will provide Takeda reasonable cooperation, and will make available to Takeda, at reasonable times and under appropriate conditions, access to all relevant personnel, records, papers, information, samples, specimens, and the like in its possession necessary to prosecute such patent application and/or maintain such patent assigned to Takeda. The Parties also agree to consult with each other from time to time, at one Party's request, on patent policies to be implemented with respect to the Product in the Territory. 12.2 BioNumerik Developments and Improvements. All BioNumerik Developments and Improvements made by BioNumerik on the Product will be included in the scope of the Licensed Information and Licensed Patents to which BioNumerik grants Takeda an exclusive 50 license on the terms described herein and subject to Sections 2.4, 5.1(a), 6.3 and 6.7 hereof. However, nothing in this section should be construed to entitle BioNumerik to additional consideration besides that expressly contained herein. BioNumerik will be solely responsible for the prosecution of any patents relating to the BioNumerik Developments and Improvements made to the Product, without any right of reimbursement from Takeda for the cost of the prosecution. 12.3 Takeda Developments and Improvements. Takeda grants a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide except the Territory, royalty-free paid-up license to BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) to: (a) all Takeda Developments and Improvements to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, market and license the Product incorporating such Takeda Developments and Improvements throughout the world in areas outside the Territory and, (b) all data and results obtained by Takeda from the non-clinical studies, clinical trials and related testing conducted by Takeda for the purpose of supporting non-clinical studies, clinical trials, regulatory approval for the Product outside of the Territory, and development, marketing and sale of the Product outside the Territory, and are subject to any retained rights of Takeda to practice such Takeda Developments and Improvements other than in connection with the Product. 12.4 Jointly Developed Intellectual Property. Information, developments, improvements, and intellectual property that are jointly developed by the Parties directly concerning the Product ("Jointly Developed Intellectual Property") will be jointly owned by the Parties. Takeda and its Affiliates will have the exclusive right (with the right to sublicense) to use all Jointly Developed Intellectual Property in the Territory and BioNumerik is hereby granted a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide except the Territory, royalty-free paid-up license to all Jointly Developed Intellectual Property, and BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) may make, have made, use, sell and license products and technology incorporating such Jointly Developed Intellectual Property throughout the world in areas outside the Territory. In addition, BioNumerik may use the Jointly Developed Intellectual Property to conduct the activities described in Section 2.4. Takeda will be solely responsible for (a) filing, prosecution and maintaining of any patents relating to Jointly Developed Intellectual Property and (b) to proceed to initiate interference, re-examinations, reissues and oppositions with respect thereto, 51 but each Party agrees to share the cost of the patent prosecution equally for Jointly Developed Intellectual Property. Each party will promptly notify the other Party as to the creation of, the conception or reduction to practice of any Jointly Developed Intellectual Property. Takeda will promptly notify BioNumerik as to whether any patent applications will be prepared. Takeda will have a right to request and, promptly after any such request, receive from BioNumerik reasonable additional information with respect to Jointly Developed Intellectual Property. Takeda will provide BioNumerik with a reasonable opportunity to review and provide substantive input to material decisions relating to the prosecution and maintenance of patents for the Jointly Developed Intellectual Property. Takeda will furnish to BioNumerik copies of documents relevant to any such prosecution and maintenance reasonably in advance of expiration of response or application deadline in order to provide BioNumerik a meaningful opportunity to comment thereon and to participate in all material decision making regarding such prosecution and maintenance. For purposes of clarification, Takeda will consider all substantive input and comments provided by BioNumerik regarding the prosecution of such patent applications and the maintenance of such patents. Takeda may continue to take ministerial and non-material procedural matters regarding the Jointly Developed Intellectual Property without obtaining prior input from BioNumerik. Takeda agrees not to finally abandon any claims of the Jointly Developed Intellectual Property without providing BioNumerik written notice of Takeda's decision not less than thirty (30) days prior to any deadline or date imposed by an office with authority and jurisdiction in any country where such patent application is being prosecuted or such patent is being maintained. Upon receipt of such notice, BioNumerik may, in its sole discretion, initiate and/or continue prosecution activities with respect to such patent application and/or maintenance activities with respect to such patent, and Takeda, upon BioNumerik's decision to initiate and/or continue such activities, will assign, deliver, transfer and set over to BioNumerik all interest of Takeda in, to and under such patent application and patent. Takeda will provide BioNumerik reasonable cooperation, and will make available to BioNumerik, at reasonable times and under appropriate conditions, access to all relevant personnel, records, papers, information, samples, specimens, and the like in its possession necessary to prosecute such patent application and/or 52 maintain such patent assigned to BioNumerik. If Takeda determines not to file a patent application relating to any Jointly Developed Intellectual Property, BioNumerik can, in its discretion, file and prosecute and will then obtain sole ownership rights with respect to such Jointly Developed Intellectual Property and Takeda will provide necessary assistance to allow BioNumerik to file, including providing data and other reasonably requested inventorship documentation and assistance. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, inventorship of the Jointly Developed Intellectual Property will be determined in accordance with the U.S. Patent Law. In the case of disagreements regarding inventorship, such issue will be determined through the dispute resolution process under Article XIX. 12.5 Patent Term Extension. BioNumerik and Takeda will consult with each other about Patent Term Extension in the Territory and make a joint decision thereon. A Party that owns the patent which claims or relates to the Product will promptly file all applications for any extension of patent term for which it is eligible in accordance with such joint decision, and take all reasonable actions necessary to obtain patent extension. Each Party will assist with all reasonable requests made by the other Party in support of any application for Patent Term Extensions of, or supplementary protection certificates relating to, the Licensed Patents, and patents on Takeda Developments and Improvements and Jointly Developed Intellectual Property.

The Promotion Committee will provide regular progress and status reports to the Joint Steering Committee. ARTICLE XIV ADVERSE EVENT REPORT AND PMS 14.1 Within six (6) months of the Effective Date, the Parties will develop a procedure for the reporting of adverse events between the Parties and to the Regulatory Agency (substantially in the form of the reporting procedure attached herewith as Exhibit F), which may 56 be amended from time to time to reflect applicable laws and regulations and the Parties' pharmacovigilance practices. As part of this procedure, a PMS database will be shared by the Parties. The plan for the PMS database and the PMS reporting responsibilities and operations will be established by the Joint Steering Committee within six (6) months of the Effective Date. 14.2 BioNumerik will be responsible for preparing and submitting regulatory reports or inquiries or responses concerning the Product to the FDA or other Regulatory Agency as well as any other regulatory communication to the FDA or other Regulatory Agency concerning the Product as well as making such communications available to Takeda or any Regulatory Agency as required by applicable laws, regulations, standards and guidelines or in accordance with then-current ICH guidelines. 14.3 Each Party will conduct PMS in the Territory in a coordinated manner with the other Party. Each Party will regularly report PMS results from the Territory to the other Party. BioNumerik will summarize and analyze such PMS data for the purpose of reporting to the FDA and other regulatory agencies as required by law and in accordance with ICH guidelines. BioNumerik will regularly report PMS results from other territories to Takeda. BioNumerik will be responsible for reporting the results of the PMS and any adverse events of the Product to the Regulatory Agency as well as in other territories where the Product is in development or approved. Takeda and BioNumerik will have direct access to PMS data at all times, and BioNumerik will have the responsibility and the right to report such data to all regulatory authorities in accordance with all applicable laws and contractual obligations for such safety reporting. 14.4 Each Party will fully cooperate with the other in all respects necessary to enable each to fulfill its reporting obligations under applicable laws and regulations. ARTICLE XV TERM AND TERMINATION 15.1 Term. The term of this Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and will remain in effect until and unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to a provision of this Agreement. 57 15.2 Termination on Patent Expiration or Generic Entry Date. (a) Takeda may terminate this Agreement effective as of the Patent Expiration Date in the Territory or just in the United States or at any time after the Patent Expiration Date in the Territory or just in the United States, provided that Takeda has provided BioNumerik with 6 months (180 days) prior written notice, or Takeda may opt to continue the Agreement until the Agreement is otherwise terminated. If Takeda terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 15.2(a), then (1) the licenses granted to Takeda under this Agreement except for the Licensed Trademarks will become royalty-free, paid-up and perpetual as to the terminated portion of the Territory, provided that BioNumerik can promote, market and sell the Product in the terminated portion of the Territory without any further obligation to Takeda and (2) the licenses granted to Takeda pursuant to this Agreement except for the Licensed Trademarks will be extended to encompass the right of Takeda to make and have made the Product in such terminated portion of the Territory. Further, in the event of such termination, BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) will be granted a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free paid-up license under Takeda Developments and Improvements and Jointly Developed Intellectual Property, to make, have made, use, and sell the Product in such terminated portion of the Territory. (b) Takeda may terminate this Agreement on the Generic Entry Date in the Territory or just in the United States or at any time after the Generic Entry Date in the Territory or just in the United States with 6 months (180 days) prior written notice to BioNumerik, or Takeda may opt to continue the Agreement until the Agreement is otherwise terminated. If Takeda terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 15.2(b), then (1) the licenses granted to Takeda under this Agreement except for the Licensed Trademarks will become royalty-free, paid-up and perpetual as to the terminated portion of the Territory, provided that BioNumerik can promote, market and sell the Product in the terminated portion of the Territory without any further obligation to Takeda and (2) the licenses granted to Takeda pursuant to this Agreement will be extended to encompass the right of Takeda to make and have made the Product in such terminated portion of the Territory. Further, in the event of such termination, BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) will be granted a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free paid-up license under Takeda Developments and Improvements and Jointly Developed Intellectual Property, to make, have made, use, and sell the Product in such terminated portion of the Territory. 58 (c) If Takeda desires to retain exclusive rights to use of the Licensed Trademarks for the Product in the terminated portion of the Territory following termination pursuant to Section 15.2 (a) or Section 15.2(b), Takeda will make an offer to BioNumerik of a payment amount to retain such rights to the Licensed Trademarks, within thirty (30) days after Takeda has provided the written notice of termination. Within thirty (30) days after Takeda makes its offer, BioNumerik will have the option to either: (i) accept such payment amount and allow Takeda to retain such rights to the Licensed Trademarks; or (ii) pay Takeda the payment amount and retain the rights to the Licensed Trademarks for exclusive use by BioNumerik and its Affiliates and sublicensees in such terminated portion of the Territory. If BioNumerik accepts such payment amount, the license granted to Takeda to the Licensed Trademarks will become royalty-free, paid-up and perpetual as to the terminated portion of the Territory. 15.3 Termination for Lack of Viability or Profitability. If the Product is not commercially viable or profitable in either country of the Territory as measured by the standards described in this Section 15.3 below, as reasonably applied by Takeda in its sole discretion but after consultation with BioNumerik for one hundred fifty (150) days, Takeda may eliminate a country from the Territory or terminate this Agreement by informing BioNumerik of such elimination or termination in writing thirty (30) days in advance. The Product is not commercially viable or profitable if (i) the Net Profits are negative for any three (3) out of four (4) calendar quarters in a Fiscal Year during the second year after the commercial launch of the Product or any two (2) calendar quarters in any Fiscal Year after the first two-year period following the commercial launch of the Product; (ii) Takeda determines in good faith that any event of the subsection 15.3(i) above is more likely than not to occur; or (iii) Takeda determines in good faith that the NDA filing or NDA approval of the Product in the United States is more likely than not to be delayed for more than one (1) year compared with the initial Development Plan attached hereto. In the event of such a termination, all rights granted to Takeda under this Agreement will revert to BioNumerik, and BioNumerik will have no obligation to return any amounts paid to BioNumerik by Takeda prior to such termination. Further, in the event of such termination, BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) will be granted a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free paid-up license under Takeda Developments and Improvements and Jointly Developed Intellectual Property, to make, have made, use, and sell the Product in the Territory. 59 15.4 Termination for Cause. This Agreement may be terminated as provided for below if any of the following occur: (a) Material Breach of the Agreement. In the event of a material breach of this Agreement, the nonbreaching Party may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the breaching Party of the breach and intent to terminate this Agreement; provided, that this Agreement will terminate sixty (60) days following receipt of the notice of breach unless the breaching Party corrects the breach within such sixty (60) day period, and notifies the nonbreaching Party of the correction. However, if the breaching Party does not correct the breach within such sixty (60) day period, then the nonbreaching Party may provide written notice to the breaching Party that the termination will be delayed to allow the nonbreaching Party the opportunity to take any actions necessary to try to correct the breach itself and to seek fair and reasonable damages from the breaching Party to reimburse any loss caused by the breach, either (a) through negotiations; (b) through the dispute resolution procedures in Article XIX; or (c) acceptance of the breach by the nonbreaching Party, provided that if the nonbreaching Party has not chosen option (b) within six (6) months of the notice of delay, the nonbreaching Party will be deemed to have chosen option (c) and have accepted the breach. Further, the nonbreaching Party will not be considered to have waived any of its other remedies available to it under the law or equity for any such breach, including but not limited to damages from the breaching Party to reimburse the nonbreaching Party for any loss caused by the breach. If either Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 15.4(a), then the Parties will resort to the dispute resolution procedure in Article XIX for resolution. Pending the outcome of such dispute resolution procedure, (1) the licenses granted to each Party under this Agreement will continue; (2) the licenses granted to Takeda pursuant to this Agreement will be extended to encompass the right of Takeda to make and have made the Product in the Territory; and, (3) the licenses granted to BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) will be extended to encompass the right to Takeda Developments and Improvements and Jointly Developed Intellectual Property to make, have made, use, and sell the Product in the Territory. The Parties expect that the arbitration decision after the outcome of such dispute resolution 60 procedure will determine issues such as the merits of the alleged breach, how the Parties' relationship may continue following the dispute resolution procedure, what rights each Party will have under the other Party's intellectual property following the outcome of the dispute resolution procedure, how the Product will continue to be marketed in the Territory, and what monetary damages, if any, will be provided to the Parties as compensation. Pending the outcome of such dispute resolution procedure, the amount and timing of any payments (including payments by Takeda to BioNumerik pursuant to Articles VIII and IX of this Agreement) that would otherwise be made by Takeda to BioNumerik will be referred to the International Chamber of Commerce for determination by Arbitrator(s) ("the Payment Arbitrator(s)") different than the Arbitrators selected when the dispute resolution procedure of Article XIX is invoked. The Parties will mutually select a single Payment Arbitrator. If the Parties are unable to mutually agree on the selection of a single Payment Arbitrator, then one arbitrator will be appointed by BioNumerik, one arbitrator will be appointed by Takeda, and the third arbitrator will be appointed by the two arbitrators. The selection of the Payment Arbitrator(s) will take place within thirty (30) days after the filing of the Request for Arbitration. The Payment Arbitrator(s) will be requested to decide the amount and timing of such payments on an interim and expedited basis with their decision to be rendered no later than thirty (30) days after the selection of Payment Arbitrator(s); in addition to the foregoing, both Parties will use best efforts and will accordingly perform their respective activities necessary to resolve this payment issue within sixty (60) days after the filing of the Request for Arbitration. The Payment Arbitrator(s) decision regarding such payments will govern such payment matters pending the outcome of the arbitration. Before the Payment Arbitrator(s)'s decision, payments by Takeda to BioNumerik pursuant to Articles VIII and IX of this Agreement will continue, provided that if Takeda is the nonbreaching Party, such payments will continue for no longer than sixty (60) days after the filing of the Request, even if the Payment Arbitrator(s) takes longer to decide the payments issue than the requested thirty (30) day period provided further, that if Takeda is still requesting BioNumerik to supply it with manufactured Product, Takeda will continue to pay to BioNumerik the Provisional Price per unit of Product supplied by BioNumerik to Takeda. (b) Bankruptcy. Either Party may terminate this Agreement by a registered letter to the other Party with termination to take immediate effect upon the sending of such letter 61 if the other Party becomes insolvent or a petition in bankruptcy or corporate reorganization or any similar relief is filed by or against the other Party, or a receiver is appointed with respect to any substantial portion of the assets of the other Party, or a liquidation proceeding is commenced against the other Party. In the case that Takeda terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section, subject to Takeda continuing all payment obligations to BioNumerik as described in this Agreement, BioNumerik will transfer to Takeda any existing NDA approvals, applications and/or filings and similar approvals for the Product in the Territory upon request of Takeda and Takeda will have, with the right to sublicense, (i) an exclusive and perpetual license under the Licensed Patents and Licensed Information existing at the time of such termination and (ii) a non-exclusive and perpetual license under the BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information existing at the time of such termination (subject to the restrictions and limitations contained in Section 2.1 with respect to the license of such BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information), such licenses in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) being to develop, market, promote, sell, distribute, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell and import the Product in the Territory, provided that Takeda will indemnify, defend and hold BioNumerik and each of BioNumerik's Affiliates, agents, employees, officers and directors harmless from any and all liabilities, damages, loss, costs, or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and product liability claims directly concerning the Product) arising out of activities conducted by Takeda after the date of Takeda's termination under this Section 15.4(b), and provided further that BioNumerik will retain the right for itself and its Affiliates, sublicensees and contract manufacturers to use any of the Licensed Patents, Licensed Information and BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information without any payment obligation to Takeda for purposes of manufacturing the Product in the Territory for use outside the Territory, for internal research, and for purposes that do not relate to the Product. BioNumerik will, subject to Takeda continuing all payment obligations to BioNumerik as described in this Agreement, also grant Takeda an exclusive and perpetual license to use the Licensed Trademarks for the Product in the Territory, provided that Takeda can provide reasonably sufficient explanation to BioNumerik that the goodwill associated with the Licensed Trademarks will not be substantially damaged by the continued use by Takeda and its Affiliates and sublicensees of such Licensed Trademarks in the Territory. In the case that BioNumerik terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 15.4(b), BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) will be granted a non-exclusive, 62 perpetual, royalty-free paid-up license under Takeda Developments and Improvements and Jointly Developed Intellectual Property, to make, have made, use, and sell the Product in the Territory. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement by each Party as a licensor or sublicensor are, and will otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of Title XI, United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"), licenses (or, if applicable, sublicenses) of rights to "intellectual property" as defined under Section 101(35A) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Party agrees that each licensee (or, if applicable, sublicensee) of such rights under this Agreement will retain and may fully exercise all rights and elections it would have in the case of a licensor (or sublicensor) bankruptcy under the Bankruptcy Code. Each Party agrees during the term of this Agreement to create or maintain current copies, or if not amenable to copying, detailed descriptions or other appropriate embodiments, of all such intellectual property licensed or sublicensed to the other Party. 15.5 Termination for Failure to Maintain Safety and Quality in Product Manufacturing Standards. Takeda may terminate this Agreement at any time if it determines that BioNumerik or any one of its contract-manufacturers fail to maintain the applicable safety and quality standards when manufacturing the Product for Takeda, provided that this provision will only apply with respect to a failure to maintain appropriate safety and quality standards when manufacturing the Product for Takeda that would have a Material Adverse Effect on Takeda. In addition, Takeda will, prior to any such termination, provide BioNumerik with notice and a sixty (60) day opportunity to correct or remedy such failure, unless allowing for such notice period would have a Material Adverse Effect on Takeda due to such failure. In the case that Takeda decides to continue to market the Product in the Territory following such termination, BioNumerik will transfer to Takeda any existing NDA approvals, applications and/or filings and similar approvals for the Product in the Territory upon request of Takeda and Takeda will have, with the right to sublicense, (i) an exclusive and perpetual license under the Licensed Patents and Licensed Information existing at the time of such termination and (ii) a non-exclusive and perpetual license under the BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information existing at the time of such termination (subject to the restrictions and limitations contained in Section 2.1 with respect to the license of such BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information), such licenses in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) being to develop, market, promote, sell, distribute, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell and import the Product in the Territory, provided that Takeda 63 will indemnify, defend and hold BioNumerik and each of BioNumerik's Affiliates, agents, employees, officers and directors harmless from any and all liabilities, damages, loss, costs, or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and product liability claims directly concerning the Product) arising out of activities conducted by Takeda after the date of Takeda's termination under this Section, and provided further that BioNumerik will retain the right for itself and its Affiliates, sublicensees and contract manufacturers to use any of the Licensed Patents, Licensed Information and BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information without any payment obligation to Takeda for purposes of manufacturing the Product in the Territory for use outside the Territory, for internal research, and for purposes that do not relate to the Product. BioNumerik will also grant Takeda and its Affiliates and sublicensees an exclusive and perpetual license to use the Licensed Trademarks for the Product in the Territory, provided that Takeda can provide reasonably sufficient explanation to BioNumerik that the goodwill associated with the Licensed Trademarks will not be substantially damaged by the continued use by Takeda of such Licensed Trademarks in the Territory. Further, Takeda will continue to pay all payment obligations to BioNumerik as described in this Agreement. In the case that Takeda decides not to continue to market the Product in the Territory following such termination, all rights granted to Takeda under this Agreement will revert to BioNumerik, and BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) will be granted a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free paid-up license under Takeda Developments and Improvements and Jointly Developed Intellectual Property, to make, have made, use, and sell the Product in the Territory. 15.6 Suspension or Termination Due to Serious Adverse Event. Either Party may suspend development, marketing, and sales activities or immediately terminate this Agreement at its choice at any time upon notice to the other Party if such Party becomes aware of a "serious adverse drug experience" as defined in 21 CFR 312 that is associated with the administration of the Product, provided that this provision will only apply with respect to a serious adverse drug experience that would have a material adverse effect on the ability to obtain and/or maintain regulatory approvals in the Territory or only in the United States and/or to continue to profitably market the Product in the Territory or only in the United States or would be materially adverse to the terminating Party's reputation, and provided further that any such suspension will continue for no more than ninety (90) days (unless otherwise agreed upon by the Parties). If BioNumerik terminates this Agreement pursuant to this section and Takeda desires to continue to develop and 64 commercialize the Product, BioNumerik will transfer to Takeda any existing NDA approvals, applications and/or filings and similar approvals for the Product in the Territory upon request of Takeda and Takeda will have, with the right to sublicense, (i) an exclusive royalty-free, paid-up and perpetual license under the Licensed Patents and Licensed Information existing at the time of such termination and (ii) a non-exclusive royalty-free, paid-up and perpetual license under the BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information existing at the time of such termination (subject to the restrictions and limitations contained in Section 2.1 with respect to the license of such BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information), such licenses in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) being to develop, market, promote, sell, distribute, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell and import the Product in the Territory, provided that Takeda will indemnify, defend and hold BioNumerik and each of BioNumerik's Affiliates, agents, employees, officers and directors harmless from any and all liabilities, damages, loss, costs, or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and product liability claims directly concerning the Product) arising out of activities conducted by Takeda after the date of BioNumerik's termination under this Section, and provided further that BioNumerik will retain the right for itself and its Affiliates, sublicensees and contract manufacturers to use any of the Licensed Patents, Licensed Information and BioNumerik's Licensees' Patents and Information without any payment obligation to Takeda for purposes of manufacturing the Product in the Territory for use outside the Territory, for internal research, and for purposes that do not relate to the Product. BioNumerik will also grant Takeda and its Affiliates and sublicensees an exclusive royalty-free, paid-up and perpetual license to use the Licensed Trademarks for the Product in the Territory, provided that Takeda can provide reasonably sufficient explanation to BioNumerik that the goodwill associated with the Licensed Trademarks will not be substantially damaged by the continued use by Takeda of such Licensed Trademarks in the Territory. If Takeda terminates this Agreement pursuant to this section and BioNumerik desires to continue to develop and commercialize the Product, BioNumerik (and its designated Affiliates and sublicensees) will be granted a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free paid-up license under Takeda Developments and Improvements and Jointly Developed Intellectual Property, to make, have made, use, and sell the Product in the Territory. 65 15.7 Termination by Mutual Agreement. The Parties may terminate this Agreement at any time upon mutual agreement expressed in a writing signed by authorized representatives of both Parties. 15.8 Suspension or Termination for Impossibility.

In addition, the terminating Party will, prior to any such termination, provide the non-terminating party with notice and a sixty (60) day opportunity to correct or remedy such situation.

As of the date of execution of this Agreement, BioNumerik has provided Takeda and/or Takeda's legal, accounting, financial, or other advisors with the opportunity to review all Material Data in BioNumerik's possession, and has not concealed from Takeda any Material Data. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BioNumerik has provided Takeda and/or Takeda's advisors with the opportunity to review all human subject safety data (Life-threatening adverse drug experience, Serious adverse drug experience, Unexpected adverse drug experience, Adverse Event, Serious Adverse Event, Adverse Drug Reaction, Expectedness of Adverse Drug Reaction, as defined in 21 CFR 312 and/or ICH Guideline E2A) regarding the Product and all non-clinical safety data that is in its possession as of the date of execution of this Agreement regarding the Product. (n) Regulations. BioNumerik is not aware of any safety, efficacy, or regulatory issues, other than the information that has previously been made available to Takeda, that would preclude Takeda or BioNumerik, their licensees and contract service organizations, from researching, developing, manufacturing, marketing, using, selling, offering for sale, and importing the Product in the Territory in compliance with the laws and regulations of the Territory. (o) Research, Development, and Manufacturing. BioNumerik, its contractors, and its consultants have conducted, and will continue to conduct, all research and development, including non-clinical studies and clinical studies of the Product, and all manufacturing of the Product or components thereof in accordance with (i) all material provisions of applicable laws, regulations, guidelines, or standards of the Territory, and other countries in which such activities 82 are conducted, (ii) the known or published standards of the applicable Regulatory Agency in the Territory and such other countries, and (iii) the scientific standards applicable to the conduct of such studies and activities in the Territory and such other countries. BioNumerik believes it has conducted appropriate audits of its contract-manufacturers and appropriate diligence regarding Baxter, Grelan and their contract research organizations (CROs) relating to compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and has found no circumstances that BioNumerik believes would be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on the development and marketing of the Product in the Territory as contemplated by this Agreement. Neither BioNumerik, nor, to BioNumerik's knowledge, any officer, employee or agent of BioNumerik, has made an untrue statement of a material fact to any Regulatory Agency with respect to the Product (whether in any submission to such Regulatory Agency or otherwise), or knowingly failed to disclose a material fact required to be disclosed to any Regulatory Agency with respect to the Product. (p) No Debarment. BioNumerik has never, to its knowledge, employed and will not, to its knowledge, employ, or use, a person or entity debarred under Section 306(a) or (b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Further, BioNumerik, to its knowledge, has not employed and, to its knowledge, has not used a contractor or consultant that has employed, any individual or entity debarred by the FDA, or, to the knowledge of BioNumerik, any individual who or entity which is the subject of an FDA debarment investigation or proceeding. (q) Each member of BioNumerik's Board of Directors will recommend approval of and support approval of and each of BioNumerik's shareholders owning five percent (5%) or more of the capital stock of BioNumerik will vote for all aspects of this Agreement with Takeda that require such shareholder approval, including the issuance of Preferred Stock and Common Shares as described in this Agreement. BioNumerik agrees that following execution of this Agreement until thirty (30) days following execution of this Agreement, BioNumerik will not seek to enter into another alliance transaction directly concerning the Product in the Territory and also BioNumerik will not, during such thirty (30) day period referred to in this sentence, participate in any discussions with a third party concerning any tender or exchange offer, merger, acquisition or other business combination involving BioNumerik or any of its subsidiaries. If BioNumerik breaches this warranty by BioNumerik seeking to enter into another alliance transaction directly concerning the Product in the Territory or by BioNumerik participating in 83 any discussions with a third party concerning any tender or exchange offer, merger, acquisition or other business combination involving BioNumerik or any of its subsidiaries, then Takeda has the right to terminate this Agreement. 21.3 Disclaimer of Consequential and Punitive Damages. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT OR FROM ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, SUCH AS, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, LOST BUSINESS OR OPPORTUNITIES, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF BUSINESS REPUTATION. THESE DAMAGES ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED BY BOTH PARTIES. 21.4 EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS EXHIBITS AND ATTACHMENTS, NEITHER PARTY MAKES OR HAS MADE ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. ARTICLE XXII HSR ACT REPORTS 22.1 Within thirty (30) days of the date of execution of this Agreement, if deemed legally necessary by Takeda in consultation with BioNumerik but at Takeda's sole discretion, Takeda will file with the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") and the Antitrust Division of the United Stated Department of Justice ("Antitrust Division") the notification and report form (the "Report") required under the HSR Act, with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and BioNumerik will reasonably cooperate with Takeda to the extent necessary to assist Takeda in the preparation of its Report and to proceed to obtain necessary approvals under the HSR Act, including, but not limited to, the expiration or earlier termination of any and all applicable waiting periods required by the HSR Act. Takeda will, within ten (10) days of the date of execution of this Agreement, determine whether filing of the Report is legally necessary. In addition, Takeda will make the determination regarding the filing of the Report as soon as reasonably possible after the execution date of this Agreement and, if Takeda determines that such filing is legally required, Takeda will endeavor to file such Report as soon as reasonably possible after the execution date of this Agreement. If Takeda determines that such filing is not 84 legally necessary, it will so notify BioNumerik within the above-referenced thirty (30) day period and the Effective Date will occur upon such notification, subject to obtaining the BioNumerik shareholder approvals described in the definition of the Effective Date. Unless Takeda determines that a filing is not legally necessary, Takeda and BioNumerik will equally split any fees required to be paid to any governmental agency in connection with making such filings. Each Party will bear its own expenses, including, without limitation, legal fees and attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with preparing such filings. BioNumerik and Takeda will use respectively their good faith efforts to eliminate any concern on the part of any court or government authority regarding the legality of the proposed transaction, including, if required by federal or state antitrust authorities, promptly taking all steps to secure government antitrust clearance, including, without limitation, cooperating in good faith with any government investigation including the prompt production of documents and information required by a second request for documents and of witnesses if requested. BioNumerik and Takeda will cooperate and use respectively all reasonable efforts to make all other registrations, filings and applications, to give all notices and to obtain as soon as practicable all governmental or other consents, transfers, approvals, orders, qualification authorizations, permits and waivers, if any, and to do all other things necessary or desirable for the consummation of the transactions as contemplated hereby. Neither Party will be required, however, to divest products or assets or to change its business if doing so is a condition of obtaining approval under the HSR Act or other governmental approvals of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, neither Party will be required to agree to any limit on the contemplated agreement. In the event that (i) within thirty (30) days of the date of execution of this Agreement, Takeda fails to file a notification under the HSR Act or (ii) notification of this Agreement is filed under the HSR Act and the expiration or earlier termination of any notice and waiting period under the HSR Act has not occurred within ninety (90) days, then either Party will have the right (but will not be obligated) to terminate this Agreement by providing the other Party with written notice to such effect. Upon receipt of such written notice, this Agreement will be null, void and of no effect and neither Party will have any further rights or obligations hereunder. 85 22.2 Before Takeda acquires a holding of US$50,000,000 or more in Common Shares (or other voting securities) of BioNumerik, Takeda and BioNumerik will file with the FTC and the Antitrust Division the Notification Report required under the HSR Act with respect to the stock acquisitions contemplated by the Parties. Takeda will also receive HSR approval prior to making any acquisition that would result in Takeda holding US$50,000,000 or more Common Shares (or other voting securities) in BioNumerik. All acquisitions of Common Shares in BioNumerik by Takeda are subject to, and contingent upon, HSR approval at the time of acquisition, if such approval is required under the HSR Act. Takeda and BioNumerik agree to cooperate as necessary to prepare and file their respective HSR Notification Forms and otherwise obtain any required HSR approvals. Takeda will bear all expenses and fees related to any required HSR approvals pursuant to this section. ARTICLE XXIII MISCELLANEOUS 23.1 Addresses.
