(b) A sale will include the transfer or other disposition of an Assigned Product for consideration other than cash, in which case such consideration will be valued at the fair market value thereof. In the event that an Assigned Product is sold either for consideration other than cash or as part of a bundled product, the Net Sales of such Assigned Product will be the greater of (i) the recognized amount attributable to the Assigned Product, or (ii) the average unit price of such Assigned Product in Dosage Form when sold (other than as part of a bundle) in cash transactions in such country.

If there have been no sales of the same Assigned Product during the preceding three calendar months, the Parties will agree upon an amount for such Bulk Form sale which will not be less than a good faith determination of the amount invoiced by the Third Party upon resale of Assigned Product in Dosage Form obtained from the quantity of Assigned Products purchased in Bulk Form.
(e) In the event that, on a country-by-country basis, an Assigned Product is sold in the form of a Combination Product, the Net Sales for such Combination Product will be calculated as follows:
(i) If Pharmacyclics, its Affiliates or Licensees separately sells, in such country, (x) Assigned Products as contained in such Combination Product and (y) other products containing as their sole active ingredient(s) the other Active Components in such Combination Product, the Net Sales attributable to such Combination Product will be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of the Combination Product (calculated in accordance with
8
*Confidential Treatment Requested by Celera Corporation*
Section 1.41(a)-(d)) by the fraction A/(A+B) where: A is Pharmacyclics (or its Affiliates or Licensees, as applicable) average wholesale price during the period to which the Net Sales calculation applies to its three (3) largest distributors of the Assigned Product in such country, and B is Pharmacyclics (or its Affiliates or Licensees, as applicable) average wholesale price during the period to which the Net Sales calculation applies to its three (3) largest distributors in such country of products which contain as their sole active ingredient(s) the other Active Components in the Combination Product.
(ii) If Pharmacyclics, its Affiliates or Licensees separately sell, in such country, Assigned Products as contained in such Combination Product but do not separately sell, in such country, other products containing as their sole active ingredient(s) the other Active Components in such Combination Product, the Net Sales attributable to such Combination Product will be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of such Combination Product (calculated in accordance with Section 1.41(a)-(d)) by the fraction A/C where: A is Pharmacyclics (or its Affiliates or Licensees, as applicable) average wholesale price for the Assigned Product(s) as contained in such Combination Product during the period to which the Net Sales calculation applies to its three (3) largest distributors of a Assigned Product in such country, and C is Pharmacyclics (or its Affiliates or Licensees, as applicable) average wholesale price for the Combination Product during the period to which the Net Sales calculation applies to its three (3) largest distributors of the Combination Product in such country.
(iii) If Pharmacyclics, its Affiliates or Licensees do not separately sell, in such country, Assigned Products, the Net Sales attributable to such Combination Product will be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of such Combination Product (calculated in accordance with Section 1.41(a)-(d)) by the fraction D/(D+E) where D is the actual total cost of the Assigned Product(s) at the point of formulation into the Combination Product and E is the actual total cost of the other Active Component(s) in the Combination Product.
1.42 New Drug Application or NDA means (a) a FDA new drug application, biologics license application or its equivalent in the United States, or (b) any corresponding application to a Regulatory Authority in a Major Market Country.
1.43 Patent means (a) an issued, unexpired patent (with the term patent being deemed to encompass, without limitation, an inventors certificate) in any country which has not been held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be taken or has been taken within the required time period, including without limitation any substitution, extension, registration, confirmation, reissue, re-examination, renewal or any like
9
*Confidential Treatment Requested by Celera Corporation*
filing thereof or (b) an application for a patent pending in any country, including without limitation any provisional, converted provisional, continued prosecution application, continuation, divisional or continuation-in-part thereof; any patents issuing therefrom; and any substitution, extension, registration, confirmation, reissue, reexamination, renewal or like filing thereof, provided that if such an application for a patent has not issued as an issued patent within [***] years after the filing date from which such application takes priority, such application for a patent shall not be a Patent for purposes of this Agreement unless such application for a patent later issues as an issued patent at which time such application for a patent shall be reinstated as a Patent hereunder.
1.44 Phase 3 Clinical Trial means a pivotal human clinical trial in any Major Market Country the results of which could be used to establish safety and efficacy of an Assigned Product as a basis for a regulatory filing or that would otherwise satisfy requirements of 21 C.F.R. §312.21(c), or its foreign equivalent.
1.45 Regulatory Approval means, with respect to a national, supra-national, regional, state or local regulatory agency, department, bureau, commission, council or other governmental entity, (a) any approvals, licenses, registrations or authorizations necessary for the manufacture (where relevant), marketing and commercial sale of Assigned Product in such nation or within jurisdiction of such authority, and (b) where relevant, pricing approvals necessary to obtain reimbursement from a governmental authority.
1.46 Regulatory Authority means any national (e.g., the FDA), supra-national (e.g., the EMEA) or other regulatory agency or governmental entity involved in the granting of Regulatory Approval for, or in the regulation of human clinical studies of, an Assigned Product.
1.47 Royalty or Royalties means those amounts payable as royalties by Pharmacyclics to Celera pursuant to Section 6.4 of this Agreement.

9.3 Insurance. Within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, each Party, at its own expense, will procure and maintain during the Term, insurance policy or policies, including in the case of Pharmacyclics product liability insurance, adequate to cover its obligations hereunder and which are consistent with normal business practices of prudent companies similarly situated. As of the Effective Date, Pharmacyclics will carry comprehensive general liability, property damage, and product liability insurance with an insurance limit of $10,000,000 and, thereafter, will maintain coverage that is reasonable and customary for a similarly situated biopharmaceutical company. Celera may self-insure all or part of any such obligation consistent with pharmaceutical industry practices. Each insurance policy required by, and procured under, this Section 9.3 by a Party will name the other Party as an additional insured. The existence of such insurance will not limit the insuring Partys liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Article 9. Each Party will provide the other Party with written evidence of such insurance upon request, and will provide the other Party with written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the cancellation, non-renewal or material change in such insurance or self-insurance which materially adversely affects the rights of such other Party hereunder.

Neither Party nor its respective Affiliates and licensees will be liable for special, exemplary, consequential or punitive damages, whether in contract, warranty, tort, strict liability or otherwise incurred by the other party in connection with this Agreement, including but not limited to damages measuring lost profits or business opportunities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts paid by a Party to a Third Party as special, exemplary, consequential or punitive damages, whether in contract, warranty, tort, strict liability or otherwise will be reimbursed by the other Party to the extent such other Party is required to Indemnify such first Party pursuant to the Indemnifications of Section 9.1 or of Section 9.2.

Thereafter, if either Party desires to make a public announcement concerning this Agreement or the terms hereof, such Party will give reasonable prior advance notice of the proposed text of such announcement to the other Party for its prior review and approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. A Party will not be required to seek the permission of the other Party to repeat any information as to the terms of this Agreement that have already been publicly disclosed by such Party in accordance with the foregoing or by the other Party. Either Party may disclose the terms of this Agreement to potential investors who agree to be bound by obligations of non-disclosure and non-use at least as stringent as those contained in this Article 10.
