          7.2.1 Neither Party shall originate any publicity, news release, or other announcement disclosing any non-public terms of this Agreement (collectively, “Disclosure”), without the prior prompt review and written approval of the other, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Once specific information has been approved for disclosure, that information may be reiterated in any subsequent Disclosure without further approval; provided, however, that the Parties shall, to the extent lawful, maintain the confidentiality of financial information contained in this Agreement and resulting from the activities contemplated hereunder.
          7.2.2 Notwithstanding Section 7.2.1, a Party may make any Disclosure it believes in good faith based upon the advice of its counsel or its auditors is required by applicable law and without the prior approval of the other Party may make such disclosures as are required by the rules or regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or its relevant foreign counterpart.

     7.5 Recall

14


 

          7.5.1 Any necessary recall of Product or any batch of Product from the market in the Territory shall be effected by GS at GS’s reasonable discretion following, to the extent practicable, consultation with LGLS. Upon any Product recall, any then-pending orders of Product pursuant to Article 5, above, shall be suspended until the reinstatement of the Product or revocation of the recall.
          7.5.2 If any Product is recalled either: [***], then GS shall bear all costs and expenses of such recall including, without limitation, expenses or obligations to Third Parties, the cost of notifying end users and costs associated with shipment of any recalled Products from end users and destruction of such Products.

ARTICLE 8
PATENT RIGHTS
     8.1 LGLS Patents and GLAXO Patents. (a) During the term of this Agreement, LGLS shall [***] maintain the LGLS Patents and the GLAXO Patents in the Territory and shall use [***] to convert any currently pending or future filed patent applications into granted patents without [***] delay. LGLS shall use patent counsel selected by LGLS and reasonably approved by GS for such prosecution and maintenance and LGLS shall bear all related Patent Expenses. GS shall cooperate fully with LGLS in all such matters, at GS’s expense.
 
[***]   Confidential portions of the exhibit have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

15


 

     (b) LGLS shall promptly disclose to GS the text of all LGLS Patents filed after the Effective Date as well as all information received after the Effective Date concerning the institution or possible institution of any interference, opposition, re-examination, reissue, revocation, nullification or any official proceeding involving an LGLS Patent or GLAXO Patent any where in the Territory. GS shall have the right to review all such pending applications and other proceedings and make recommendations to LGLS with respect thereto. LGLS shall keep GS promptly and fully informed of the course of patent prosecution and other proceedings and shall provide GS with copies of all substantive communications, search reports and Third Party observations submitted to or received from patent offices throughout the Territory. All such disclosures shall be considered “Confidential Information” subject to Article 6, above.
     8.2 Abandonment. LGLS shall be free, on at least 30 days’ prior notice to GS, to abandon and stop funding Patent Expenses related to any of the LGLS Patents in any country in the Territory. In such event, GS may, at its sole option, assume and continue prosecution or maintenance of the LGLS Patents and GLAXO Patents in question, and shall thereafter bear all related Patent Expenses. Following such abandonment of a LGLS Patent by LGLS, LGLS shall have no further rights hereunder with respect to the LGLS Patent in question to the extent of such abandonment, and the term “LGLS Patents” shall be deemed to have been modified accordingly. LGLS shall not abandon any GLAXO Patent nor stop funding Patent Expenses related thereto without the prior consent of GS, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
     8.3 Infringement. If either Party learns of an infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS Patents or GLAXO Patents in the Territory in the Field it shall promptly notify the other Party and shall provide the latter Party with all information reasonably available to the notifying Party evidencing such infringement or threatened infringement. Thereafter, the Parties shall in good faith consult and cooperate in abating such infringement or threatened infringement.
     GS shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring, defend and maintain any appropriate suit or action for abatement of the infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS or GLAXO Patents in the Territory and in the Field, at GS’s sole expense. If GS requests LGLS to join GS as a party in such suit or action, LGLS shall execute all papers and perform such other acts as may be reasonably requested by GS, at GS’s expense. LGLS shall have the right to participate in any such suit or action using independent counsel, at its sole expense. Any amount recovered by GS as a result of such suit or action shall first be applied to reimburse each of the Parties, pro rata, for any costs or expenses incurred in bringing, defending and maintaining any such action. The balance (the “Net Recovery”) shall be for the sole benefit of GS. The Net Recovery shall be considered “Net Sales” with respect to the calendar quarter in which payment to GS was received, and royalties shall accordingly be paid on the amount of the Net Recovery exclusively at the rate(s) specified in Section 10.3, below. The Net Recovery shall be considered “Net Sales” for purposes of calculating annual Net Sales in accordance with Milestone 3 and in Section 10.2, below.
     If GS fails to initiate suit or action within 90 days after first notice of infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS Patents or the GLAXO Patents, or if having initiated such suit or action it thereafter diligently fails to prosecute such suit or action, LGLS shall have the

16


 

right, but not the obligation, to bring, defend and maintain any appropriate suit or action for abatement of the infringement or threatened infringement, at LGLS’s sole expense. If LGLS requests GS to join LGLS as a party in such suit or action, GS shall execute all papers and perform such other acts as may be reasonably requested by LGLS, at LGLS’s expense. GS shall have the right to participate in any such suit or action using independent counsel, at its sole expense. Any amount recovered by LGLS as a result of such suit or action shall first be applied to reimburse each of the Parties, pro rata, for any costs or expenses incurred in bringing, defending and maintaining any such action. The balance shall be divided equally between the Parties. The amount of any recovery, net of the amounts necessary to reimburse the Parties as provided above shall be considered “Net Sales” for purposes of calculating annual Net Sales in accordance with Milestones 3 and in Section 10.2, below. If such recovery is apportioned by the court such that portions thereof are attributed to infringing activity in different calendar years, or if such apportionment of the recovery can otherwise be readily ascertained, then such apportionment shall govern as to the calendar year(s) in which Net Sales shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of such Milestones. Otherwise, the amount of such recovery shall be apportioned equally over the number of calendar years in which infringement was found to have occurred (or in the event of a settlement, over the number of calendar years in which it was alleged to have occurred).
     8.4 Third Party Claims. If a Third Party asserts that a patent or other right owned by it is infringed by the development, manufacture, import, use, sale or offer for sale of a Product by GS or its Affiliates or sub-licensees in the Territory in the Field, the Party first obtaining knowledge of such claim shall immediately provide the other Party notice of such claim and the related facts in reasonable detail. In such event, the Parties shall determine how best to control the defense of any such claim. In the event the Parties cannot agree on the defense of such claim, such defense shall be controlled by GS with respect to sales of Product in the Territory and by LGLS with respect to Product sales outside of the Territory. In each such case, the other Party shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in such defense and to be represented in any such action by counsel of its choice at its sole discretion. With respect to any such claim, the Party entitled to control defense shall also have the right to control settlement of such claim; provided, however, that no settlement shall be entered into without the written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably.
     8.5 Ownership. Subject to Section 9.2, below, each Party shall have and retain sole and exclusive title to all inventions, discoveries and know-how which are made, conceived, reduced to practice or generated solely by its employees or agents in the course of or as a result of this Agreement. Each Party shall own an equal undivided interest in all such inventions, discoveries and know-how made, conceived, reduced to practice or generated jointly by the employees or agents of one Party and the employees or agents of the other Party.

If the Parties are unable to reach agreement by the end of such [***]period, GS shall be free to develop and commercialize such DNA nanobinder compound in the GS Option Field in question as it sees fit.
     9.7 [***]. In the event that LGLS proposes to grant commercial rights in the Territory with respect [***] to a Third Party, it shall first offer such rights to GS on definitive terms. GS shall have [***] after receipt of such offer to accept, failing which LGLS shall be free to offer

Upon request by GS within [***] following such notice, the Parties shall in good faith negotiate commercially reasonable terms and conditions on which GS would receive from LGLS an exclusive license with respect to such proposed development and commercialization. If the Parties are unable to reach such agreement within [***] after GS’s notice, at GS’s request the terms of such an exclusive license shall be set by [***], and the Parties shall promptly execute a license agreement consistent with [***].

     10.4 Term of Royalty Obligations. GS’s obligation to make royalty payments pursuant to Section 10.3 with respect to a Product shall commence on the date of the first commercial sale of such Product in a given country in the Territory and shall continue until the later of: (i) the expiration of the last to expire of the LGLS Patents and GLAXO Patents claiming or covering such Product in such country, and (ii) 10 years after first commercial sale of such Product in such country. Following the expiration of GS’s royalty obligations, GS shall retain a non-exclusive, royalty-free right to use, sell and offer for sale Product in the Territory, using LGLS Know-how and GLAXO Know-how licensed to GS as of the Effective Date and the exclusive right to use the Trademarks for such purposes. GS shall continue to pay to LGLS a royalty in return for such right to use the Trademark, as provided in Section 11.4, below.
     10.5 Royalty Reductions. If GS is required to pay royalties to Third Parties in order to exercise the license granted to GS in Section 9.1, above, with respect to any Product in any country in the Territory, GS will be entitled to deduct [***] percent of the amount due to such Third Parties from the amounts due to LGLS pursuant to Section 10.3, above, with respect to Net Sales of such Product in such country. In no event shall any such royalty reductions in any calendar quarter be more than [***] percent of the royalty payment due to LGLS with respect to such calendar quarter in a given country. Any royalty reduction to which GS would otherwise be entitled may be carried forward by GS and used by GS in a future period (subject to the maximum reductions specified in this Section 10.5).
     10.6 Royalties Payable Only Once; Sales to Affiliates and Sub-Licensees. The obligation to pay royalties is imposed only once with respect to the same unit of each Product. Sales of Products between GS and its Affiliates or sub-licensees, or among such Affiliates and sub-licensees, shall not be subject to royalties under Sections 10.3 but in such cases the royalties shall be calculated on the Net Sales by such Affiliates or sub-licensees to Third Parties.
     10.7 Reports. GS shall deliver to LGLS, within 60 days after the end of each calendar quarter, reasonably detailed written accountings of Net Sales that are subject to royalty payments due to LGLS for such calendar quarter.

Results of such review shall be made available to both LGLS and GS. If the review reflects an underpayment of

royalties to LGLS such underpayment shall be promptly remitted to LGLS, together with [***]. If the underpayment of royalties is equal to or greater than [***], then GS pay all of the costs of such review.

For the purpose of verifying cost of goods, GS shall have the right annually, at GS’s expense, to retain an independent certified public accountant selected by GS and reasonably acceptable to LGLS, to review such records in the location(s) where such records are maintained, upon reasonable notice and during regular business hours and under obligations of confidentiality. Results of such review shall be made available to both LGLS and GS. If the review reflects an overcharge by LGLS, such overcharge shall be promptly remitted to GS, together with interest calculated in the manner provided in Section 10.9, below. If the amount of such overcharge is equal to or greater than [***], then LGLS pay all of the costs of such review. If the review reflects an undercharge by LGLS, GS shall promptly refund the amount of the overpayment to LGLS, together with [***].
     10.9 Currency and Method of Payment. All payments due or payable hereunder shall be made in US Dollars, delivered by wire transfer to such account as LGLS may identify from time to time on notice to GS. Royalty payments due hereunder with respect to sales not denominated in US Dollars shall be converted using the applicable conversion rates quoted in the Wall Street Journal for buying US Dollars in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied. GS shall pay interest to LGLS on the amount of any payments that are not paid on or before the date such payments are due under this Agreement at a rate of [***] for the applicable period, calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent.
     10.10 Tax Withholding. The Parties shall use all reasonable and legal efforts to reduce tax withholding on payments made to LGLS hereunder. Notwithstanding such efforts, if GS concludes that tax withholdings under the laws of any country are required with respect to payments due to LGLS, GS shall withhold the required amount and pay it to the appropriate governmental authority. In such a case, GS will promptly provide LGLS with original receipts or other evidence reasonably desirable and sufficient to allow LGLS to document such tax withholdings adequately for purposes of claiming foreign tax credits and similar benefits. No withholding deduction shall be made if LGLS furnishes lawful documentation demonstrating that the payment due is exempt from withholding according to the applicable convention for the avoidance of double taxation between the United States and the Republic of Korea or other applicable law or treaty.
     10.11 Blocked Payments. If, by reason of applicable laws or regulations in any country, it becomes impossible or illegal for GS or its Affiliates or sub-licensees to transfer, or have transferred on its behalf, royalties or other payments due hereunder to LGLS, such royalties or other payments shall be deposited in local currency in the relevant country to the credit of

     13.2 Termination for Material Breach. If either Party materially breaches this Agreement at any time, which breach is not cured within 30 days of notice thereof from the non-breaching Party, the non-breaching Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on notice to the Party in breach following the expiration of such cure period; provided, however, that if the Party alleged to be in breach shall have invoked the dispute resolution mechanism of Article 15 prior to the expiration of such cure period then termination shall not be effective until the sooner of abandonment of such proceedings by the Party alleged to be in breach or completion of the dispute resolution proceedings and a non-appealable finding in arbitration in favor of the non-breaching Party.

     13.5 Bankruptcy. All rights granted hereunder are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the “Code”) licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined in Section 101(52) of the Code. The licensee Party under this Agreement shall retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the Code, subject to performance by such Party of its obligations under this Agreement. In the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against a Party under the Code, the licensee Party shall, to the extent permitted by law, be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual property and all embodiments thereof, which shall promptly be delivered to the licensee Party, at its sole expense: (i) upon written request following commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding, or (ii) if not delivered pursuant to subsection (i), above, upon written request following the rejection in bankruptcy of this Agreement by or on behalf of the bankrupt Party. In the event of a filing for bankruptcy or insolvency by a Party, such Party shall, to the extent permitted by law, confirm to the receiver, trustee or liquidator that the intellectual property rights licensed hereunder are, notwithstanding such license, the sole property of the licensor Party and may not be disposed of by licensee except as expressly provided herein.

     13.7 Effect of Termination
          13.7.1 Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Parties of any liability, including any obligation to make payments hereunder, which accrued hereunder prior to the effective date of such termination, nor preclude a Party from pursuing all rights and remedies it may have hereunder or at law or in equity with respect to any breach of this Agreement nor prejudice a Party’s right to obtain performance of any obligation which accrued hereunder prior to the effective date of such termination. Upon termination (but not expiration of the term of this Agreement), all licenses and rights to Patents and Know-How granted hereunder shall terminate.
          13.7.2 Upon termination of this Agreement (but not expiration of its term), all Confidential Information supplied by one Party shall be returned by the other Party except for one copy of such information retained solely for legal archival or regulatory purposes.
          13.7.3 Upon termination of this Agreement (but not expiration of its term), GS shall cooperate in the prompt transfer to LGLS of all Marketing Authorization Applications and Regulatory Approvals related to the Products in the Territory, and shall diligently take such other actions and execute such other instruments, assignments and documents as may be necessary to effect the transfer or reconveyance of rights hereunder to LGLS and the relinquishment of such rights by GS.

If the Steering Committee is unable to resolve such dispute within 30 days after referral, either Party may, on notice to the other, have such dispute referred to the CEOs of LGLS and GS for attempted resolution by good faith negotiation. If such individuals are unable to resolve such dispute within 30 days after referral, then either Party may thereafter seek to resolve the dispute through arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with such rules, in English.

     16.2 Force Majeure. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Party shall lose any rights hereunder or be liable to the other Party for damages or losses on account of failure of performance by the defaulting Party if the failure is occasioned by government action, war, acts of gods, or any other similar or dissimilar cause beyond the control of the defaulting Party, provided that the Party claiming force majeure has exerted all reasonable efforts to avoid or remedy such force majeure.

If any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Party or circumstance shall, to any extent, be held to be invalid or unenforceable, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term, covenant or condition to Parties or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each term, covenant or condition of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO LICENSE AND OPTION AGREEMENT
     THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO LICENSE AND OPTION AGREEMENT (the “Amendment”) is made and entered into this 21st day of November, 2002 (the “Effective Date”) by and between GENESOFT PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Delaware corporation having its principal place of business at 7300 Shoreline Court, South San Francisco, CA, USA 94080 (“GS”) and LG LIFE SCIENCES, LTD., a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Korea having its principal place of business at LG Twin Tower, 20 yoido-dong, Youngdungpo-gu, Seoul, 150-721, Republic of Korea (“LGLS”). LGLS and GS may be referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”
RECITALS
WHEREAS:
LGLS and GS entered into the License and Option Agreement on October 22, 2002 (“License”).
The Parties have identified several typographical errors in Section 8.3 of the License.
The Parties seek to amend Section 8.3 to reflect the original intent of the Parties.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows:
AMENDMENT
1. The Parties agree to delete Section 8.3 in its entirety and to replace it with the revised Section 8.3 set forth below:
Infringement. If either Party learns of an infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS Patents or GLAXO Patents in the Territory in the Field it shall promptly notify the other Party and shall provide the latter Party with all information reasonably available to the notifying Party evidencing such infringement or threatened infringement. Thereafter, the Parties shall in good faith consult and cooperate in abating such infringement or threatened infringement.
GS shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring, defend and maintain any appropriate suit or action for abatement of the infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS or GLAXO Patents in the Territory and in the Field, at GS’s sole expense. If GS requests LGLS to join GS as a party in such suit or action, LGLS shall execute all papers and perform such other acts as may be reasonably requested by GS, at GS’s expense. LGLS shall have the right to participate in any such suit or action using independent counsel, at its sole expense. Any amount recovered by GS as a result of such suit or action shall first be applied to reimburse each of the Parties, pro rata, for any costs or expenses incurred in bringing, defending and maintaining any such action. The balance (the “Net Recovery”) shall

 


 

be for the sole benefit of GS. The Net Recovery shall be considered “Net Sales” with respect to the calendar quarter in which payment to GS was received, and royalties shall accordingly be paid on the amount of the Net Recovery exclusively at the rate(s) specified in Section 10.3, below. The Net Recovery shall be considered “Net Sales” for purposes of calculating annual Net Sales in accordance with Milestones 3 and 4 and in Section 10.2, below.
     If GS fails to initiate suit or action within 90 days after first notice of infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS Patents or the GLAXO Patents, or if having initiated such suit or action it thereafter diligently fails to prosecute such suit or action, LGLS shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring, defend and maintain any appropriate suit or action for abatement of the infringement or threatened infringement, at LGLS’s sole expense. If LGLS requests GS to join LGLS as a party in such suit or action, GS shall execute all papers and perform such other acts as may be reasonably requested by LGLS, at LGLS’s expense. GS shall have the right to participate in any such suit or action using independent counsel, at its sole expense. Any amount recovered by LGLS as a result of such suit or action shall first be applied to reimburse each of the Parties, pro rata, for any costs or expenses incurred in bringing, defending and maintaining any such action. The balance shall be divided equally between the Parties. The amount of any recovery, net of the amounts necessary to reimburse the Parties as provided above shall be considered “Net Sales” for purposes of calculating annual Net Sales in accordance with Milestones 3 and 4 and in Section 10.2, below. If such recovery is apportioned by the court such that portions thereof are attributed to infringing activity in different calendar years, or if such apportionment of the recovery can otherwise be readily ascertained, then such apportionment shall govern as to the calendar year(s) in which Net Sales shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of such Milestones. Otherwise, the amount of such recovery shall be apportioned equally over the number of calendar years in which infringement was found to have occurred (or in the event of a settlement, over the number of calendar years in which it was alleged to have occurred).
2. Except as is expressly provided herein, the License shall remain in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Agreement in duplicate originals by the proper officers as of the Effective Date.

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meaning given them in that certain License and Option Agreement by and among GS and LGLS dated as of October 22, 2002 (the “Agreement”).
RECITALS
     WHEREAS, each of GS and LGLS deem it advisable to enter into this Amendment to amend certain of the payment obligations under the Agreement;
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter set forth, and certain other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, GS and LGLS hereby agree as follows:
     1. Section 10.1 of the Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirely to read as follows:
     “License Fee. Within 45 days following the Effective Date GS shall: (i) pay to LGLS a non-refundable license fee of $2.5 million, (ii) issue to LGLS a promissory note with a principal amount of three million dollars ($3,000,000) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Note”) and (iii) deliver to LGLS 4,749,659 fully-paid up and non-assessable shares of GS common stock (the “Shares”). GS represents and warrants that the Shares represent 14.0 percent of the total equity of GS on October 22, 2002, calculated on a fully diluted basis. The rights and further characteristics of the Shares (including, without limitation, certain anti-dilution rights) are as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement and related documents attached hereto as Schedule 10.1.”
     2. Section 13.2 of the Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
     “Termination for Material Breach. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 13.2, if either Party materially breaches this Agreement at any time, which breach is not cured within 30 days of notice thereof from the non-breaching Party, the non-breaching Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on notice to the Party in breach following the expiration of such cure period; provided, however, that if the Party alleged to be in breach shall have invoked the dispute resolution mechanism of Article 15 prior to the expiration of such cure period then termination shall not be effective until the sooner of abandonment of such proceedings by the Party alleged to be in breach or completion of the dispute resolution proceedings and a non-appealable finding in arbitration in favor of the non-breaching Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if GS fails to make any payment of principal and interest required by the terms of the Note on the date on which

 


 

such payment is due, which failure (a “Payment Failure”) is not cured within 2 business days of notice thereof from LGLS, LGLS shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on notice to GS following the expiration of such cure period and GS shall have no right to invoke the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Article 15 hereof with regard to or in connection with such Payment Failure.”
     3. Section 15.1 of the Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
     “Disputes. Except as set forth in Section 13.2 above, as amended, all disputes arising between the Parties hereunder or with respect to this Agreement shall be resolved solely as provided in this Article 15. Any such dispute that the Parties are unable to resolve directly may be referred by either Party to the Steering Committee for resolution. If the Steering Committee is unable to resolve such dispute within 30 days after referral, either Party may, on notice to the other, have such dispute referred to the CEOs of LGLS and GS for attempted resolution by good faith negotiation. If such individuals are unable to resolve such dispute within 30 days after referral, then either Party may thereafter seek to resolve the dispute through arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with such rules, in English. The place of arbitration shall be London, England.”
     4. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed under the substantive laws of the State of California, without regard to conflicts of law principles.
     5. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
     6. This Amendment, when executed by GS and LGLS, shall be binding upon each of GS and LGLS and each of their successors and assigns.
     7. The Agreement and this Amendment and the documents referred to therein and herein constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter thereof and hereof.
     8. Except as modified hereby, all other terms and provisions of the Agreement are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

 


 

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment as of the date first above written.

10. Section 5.1 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following revised text:
     5.1 General.
          (a) Intent of the Parties. The intent of the Parties is that:
     (i) between the Effective Date and until the expiration or termination of the GSK Supply Agreement, (including any renewal periods thereof, the “Initial Period”), LGLS shall supply to GS, and GS shall exclusively purchase from LGLS, all of GS’s requirements of Final Product according to the Final Product Specifications, and
     (ii) following the expiration or termination of the Initial Period and until the expiration or termination of this Agreement (“Remaining Period”), LGLS shall supply to GS, and GS shall exclusively purchase from LGLS, all of GS’s requirements of API in bulk form according to the API Specifications.
          (b) Terms and Conditions. The terms and conditions by which LGLS shall supply GS and GS shall purchase from LGLS Final Product or API, as applicable, pursuant to Section 5.1(a) are set forth in this Article 5.
          (c) Manufacturing Site Change.
     (i) Prior to the expiration or termination of the Initial Period, GS shall
          (A) select and contract with a Third Party to conduct final finish and fill operations at a facility operated by such Third Party during the Remaining Period to produce Final Product from API supplied by LGLS pursuant to Section 5.l(a)(ii); provided, however, that GS shall have no liability to LGLS for costs or damages resulting from the performance or failure of performance by such Third Party, except to the extent that such costs or damages result from the negligence or willful misconduct of GS, and the agreement with such Third Party shall contain provisions, enforceable by LGLS as a third party beneficiary, pursuant to which such Third Party agrees to indemnify and hold LGLS harmless from and against claims made against LGLS as a result of the negligence or willful misconduct of such Third Party; and
          (B) obtain all necessary Regulatory Approvals for the engagement of such Third Party to so produce such Final Product.

3


 

     (ii) The commencement of such finish and fill operations at such facility operated by such Third Party in accordance with such Regulatory Approvals so obtained is referred to in this Amendment as the “Manufacturing Site Change”.
     (iii) Within thirty (30) days (the “Plan Preparation Period”) following the execution of this Amendment, GS shall, subject to the approval of LGLS, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, complete the preparation of a plan (as so completed and approved, the “Manufacturing Site Change Plan”) for effecting the Manufacturing Site Change and obtaining the Regulatory Approvals for doing so. Promptly following the Plan Preparation Period, GS shall begin implementation of the Manufacturing Site Change Plan. Until such time as the Manufacturing Site Change occurs, GS shall advise LGLS in writing no less frequently than once per month as to the status of the implementation of the Manufacturing Site Change Plan.
     (iv) GS shall use [***] to cause the Manufacturing Site Change to occur on or before the date of expiration or termination of the Initial Period, and LGLS shall provide such assistance as GS reasonably requests to cause such Manufacturing Site Change to so occur.
          (d) Assured Inventory Levels.
          If, at any time during the Initial Period, GS and LGLS mutually agree in their reasonable discretion that it is unlikely that the Manufacturing Site Change will occur on or before the date of expiration or termination of the Initial Period and/or that the actual capacity of the facility contemplated by the Manufacturing Site Change will be less than its rated capacity and/or that the delivery times of Final Product from such contemplated facility will not be in accordance with the scheduled delivery times previously agreed by GS and LGLS, and that a shortage of Final Product inventory will thereby occur in respect of projected sales of Final Product following such date as set forth in GS’s then most recent forecast (the amount of such shortage as initially forecasted and adjusted from time to time in accordance with the procedures set forth below being the “Missed Manufacturing Site Change Shortage”), then LGLS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to undertake any combination of the following actions in order to avoid any such shortage:
     (i) (A) negotiate with GLAXO to extend the term of the GSK Supply Agreement and (B) so extend such term, provided that if such term is so extended, then the Initial Period shall be extended for the same length of time as the GSK Supply Agreement is so extended,
 
[***]   Confidential portions of the exhibit have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

4


 

     (ii) (A) cause GLAXO to increase its production of Finished Product during the Initial Period by the amount of the Missed Manufacturing Site Change Shortage and (B) require GS to purchase such Missed Manufacturing Site Change Shortage according to the terms and conditions of this Article 5.
     The Missed Manufacturing Site Change Shortage shall be initially calculated before June 30, 2004 by forecasting the combined influence of the anticipated delay or supply shortfall and other related factors agreed to by the parties. Thereafter, the Missed Manufacturing Site Change Shortage shall be adjusted from time to time as LGLS and GS may agree to account for the actual experience with such factors through the passage of time and revisions to the initial assumptions of the Parties regarding the extent and duration of the problem.
11. Section 5.2 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
     Supply Price.
     (i) The supply price for Final Product provided by LGLS to GS during the Initial Period until June 30, 2004, shall be equal to [***] percent of LGLS’s Fully Burdened Cost of Manufacture for Final Product supplied thereunder, which shall [***] $[***] per finished tablet, [***] $[***] per finished tablet. Final Product provided by LGLS to GS for Non-Commercial Use shall be [***] provided, however, that the prices of Final Product shall [***] per finished tablet [***].
     (ii) The supply price for Final Product provided by LGLS to GS, following June 30, 2004 and the expiration or termination of any renewal or extension periods to the GSK Agreement, shall be equal to [***] percent of LGLS’s Fully Burdened Cost of Manufacture for Final Product supplied thereunder, which shall [***] $[***] per finished tablet, [***]. The supply price for Final Product provided by LGLS to GS for Non-Commercial Use shall be [***].
     (iii) The supply price for API provided by LGLS to GS during the Remaining Period, shall be equal to [***] percent of LGLS’s Fully Burdened Cost of Manufacture for API supplied thereunder, which shall in no event [***] $[***] per kg [***] $[***] per kg. In addition, (i) if GS purchases more than [***] kg of API in any calendar year, the $[***] supply price shall be reduced by $[***] per kg for each additional [***] kg of API purchased in such year in excess of [***] kg, and (ii) the bulk supply price (including the [***]price) shall be renegotiated in good faith in the event that GS purchases more than [***] kg of API in any 12 month period. In the event that there is an interruption in LGLS’s supply of API for any reason, which continues uncured for more than [***], then GS shall have the right to procure an alternative source of supply for the duration of the interruption (“Second Source”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, GS shall only have the right to procure a Second Source in the event that the interruption arises with respect to a supply order quantity, which is less than or equal to [***] percent of the quantity anticipated by GS in the most recently updated forecast, immediately preceding the submission of the supply order. LGLS shall have the opportunity to resume its
 
[***]   Confidential portions of the exhibit have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

5


 

supply of API upon the elimination or resolution of the events causing the interruption; provided that, however, LGLS shall not resume its role as the exclusive supplier until GS is able to negotiate a termination of its purchase obligations with the Second Source Supplier. LGLS shall be responsible for any expenses incurred in excess of the price set forth herein, including any expenses related to the termination of any agreement with the Second Source Supplier; provided, however, that LGLS shall not be responsible for such excess expenses to the extent that such interruption is due to the negligence or willful malfeasance of GS.
12. Section 5.4 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
     Specifications.
     5.4.1 LGLS warrants that the Final Product it supplies hereunder during the Initial Period shall meet the Final Product Specifications, and shall have been manufactured in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations including, without limitation, then-current Good Manufacturing Practice (“cGMP”) standards. LGLS further warrants that the API comprising Final Product supplied hereunder and the API supplied hereunder in bulk form shall meet the API Specifications.
     5.4.2 If, during the Initial Period, GS requests LGLS to make changes to the Final Product Specifications or the labeling and packaging, then LGLS shall initiate such changes and GS shall be responsible for the costs incurred by LGLS in making such change, including without limitation, the cost of any change requested in order to maintain the Specifications or packaging and labeling in conformity with the Final Product’s drug application filed with the FDA, applicable cGMPs, and applicable regulatory acts or legal requirements (including, without limitation, with respect to any of the materials used in the Final Product), not generally applicable to the manufacture of pharmaceutical products or types of dosage forms (e.g., blister packs or sterile vials). GS retains the right and responsibility for Regulatory Approvals of the Final Product Specifications.
     5.4.3 During the Initial Period, GS shall provide to LGLS, at GS’s sole cost and expense, camera-ready artwork for the Final Product Specifications as approved for each market, relating to graphics. GS shall bear all artwork costs and expenses incurred as a result of any revision to the Final Product Specifications.
     5.4.4 During the Initial Period, GS shall pay for Obsolete Materials in the amount of [***]; provided, however, that to the extent that such Obsolete Materials are solely attributable to LGLS’s ordering quantities of materials in excess of quantities necessary to fulfill volumes projected in the Nonbinding Forecast, GS shall not be required to pay for such Obsolete Materials.
 
[***]   Confidential portions of the exhibit have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

13. Section 5.5 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following paragraphs set forth below:
     Purchase Order and Forecasting.
     5.5.1 During the Initial Period, GS shall provide to LGLS a nonbinding projection of [***] of the anticipated volumes of each Final Product for each market to be ordered by GS pursuant to Section 5.5.3 below. GS shall provide such projections to LGLS on [***] during the Initial Period; provided that GS shall provide to LGLS the first such report no later than the execution of this Amendment No. 3.
     5.5.2 On or before March 1, 2003, GS shall place a firm order for the amount of Final Product produced to Final Product Specifications which incorporates [***] of API. With GS’s permission, LGLS may request that GLAXO order Long Lead Time Materials to fulfill such firm order, subject to GS obtaining any required Regulatory Approval from the FDA. LGLS shall have no responsibility for lost Long Lead Time Materials due to FDA delays or requirements, and GS shall pay for such Long Lead Time Materials regardless of any FDA delay or requirement relating to the Final Product.
     5.5.3 All subsequent supply orders for the delivery of Final Product, submitted prior to the expiration or termination of Initial Period, shall specify the aggregate volumes of Final Product ordered for each market and the delivery date, and each such supply order shall be submitted to LGLS not less than [***] prior to the delivery date on which GS has requested shipment pursuant to such supply order; provided that, however, in the event that GS purchases long lead time materials (as defined in Article I and Section 2.4(c) of the GSK Supply Agreement), then such supply orders shall be submitted to LGLS not less than [***] prior to the requested delivery date for each such supply order. GS shall submit [***] supply orders for the aggregate Final Product volumes for each market, which volumes shall be equivalent to the minimum order quantity for each Final Product in a particular market. The minimum order quantity shall be [***].
     5.5.4 LGLS shall not be obligated to produce more than [***] of Final Product (totaling approximately [***] tablets) in 2003, unless on or before [***], GS submits an additional supply order for Final Product to be manufactured in 2003, for delivery on or before [***]. Such order shall be for [***] of Final Product.
     5.5.5 Upon the commencement of the Remaining Period, GS shall provide to LGLS a non-binding forecast of the quantities of API to be manufactured during the [***] period. This forecast shall be updated by GS on or before [***] of each [***] for the following [***]. Within [***] after the receipt of such forecast, LGLS shall provide to GS a good faith non-binding forecast of the Fully Burdened Cost of Manufacture of the supply of API forecasted by GS for the [***].
 
[***]   Confidential portions of the exhibit have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     GS shall issue each supply order to LGLS at least [***] prior to the delivery date on which GS has requested LGLS to ship pursuant to each such supply order.
14. Section 5.6 shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following paragraph:
     Delivery.
     5.6.1 During the Initial Period, all Final Product shall be shipped FCA GLAXO’s manufacturing facility located at Road 172 Km 9.1, Bo. Certenejas, Cidra, Puerto Rico (as defined in the INCOTERMS, 2000 edition, published by the International Chamber of Commerce, ICC Publication 560), except with regard to title and risk of loss.

During the Remaining Period, the Parties agree that API shall be shipped Ex Works (“EXW”), as such term is defined in INCOTERMS 2000, in which case, title and all risks of loss or damage to the API shall remain with LGLS until the API is delivered to the carrier for shipment at the EXW point, at which time title and all risks of loss or damage shall transfer to GS. During the term of this Agreement, GS shall promptly reimburse LGLS for the cost of any duties incurred in conjunction with the delivery of the Final Product, and any insurance purchased at the request of GS to cover any risks of loss to GS arising from shipment.
     5.6.2 The initial supply order for Final Product shall be delivered by August 30, 2003, and the delivery date for all subsequent supply orders shall be the later to occur of (a) the date set forth in the applicable supply order, or (b) the date that is [***] after LGLS’s receipt of the applicable supply order; provided that, however, the delivery of Product purchased under the initial Product supply order shall be contingent upon (i) preliminary indication of artwork and NDC number for GS on or before April 4, 2003, (ii) LGLS obtaining NDA approval for the Product from the FDA on or before July 1, 2003; and (iii) GS delivering final artwork specifications to LGLS on or before July 1, 2003.

In the event that LGLS’s actual cost for such manufacture and supply exceeds the cost paid by GS during such period, LGLS shall invoice GS for the difference in cost, and GS shall pay such invoice within [***] after receipt thereof. In the event that the cost paid by GS for such manufacture and supply during such period exceeds LGLS’s actual cost, LGLS shall credit GS for such difference and apply such credit toward future costs. LGLS shall provide a similar accounting and reconciliation statement within [***] following the expiration or termination of the Initial Period for the period beginning January 1, 2004 and ending on the date of the expiration or termination of the Initial Period, and LGLS shall invoice or reimburse GS for any difference in costs, accordingly.

If during the manufacture or other handling of a Final Product by GLAXO, (i) the process or analytical limits vary from the typical or established report ranges, release guidelines, or release limits, (ii) Specifications or cGMPs were not followed in the production of the Products, or (iii) the Products fail to conform to Specifications, then LGLS shall provide to GS, or cause GLAXO to provide to GS, the written report detailing such deviation (“Deviation Report”) prepared by GLAXO, along with all supporting documentation. The Deviation Report shall be attached to, and shall accompany, copies of all relevant batch records. Any batch or shipment of Final Product that is the subject of a nonconformity or a

10


 

Deviation Report shall not be shipped to GS, unless otherwise directed by GS, or, if such Final Product was shipped and is held in stock by GS, then it shall be given a “Hold” or “Unpassed” status and shall not be released into the passed inventory of GS until GS has completed any investigations related to such Products and approved the disposition of the Final Product. GS shall provide written instructions to LGLS regarding the destruction of any nonconforming Final Products. The cost of destruction and the replacement cost of Final Product [***].
27. A new Section 7.8 shall be inserted, which states the following:

     Regulatory Inspections. During the period that any Glaxo facility is engaged in the manufacture, packaging, generation, storage, testing, treatment, holding, transportation, distribution, release, or other handling or receiving of Final Product distributed or to be distributed by GS and LGLS is notified that any such Final Product or facility will be subject to inspection, LGLS shall promptly advise, or cause GLAXO to advise, GS of such inspection.
29. A new Section 7.10 shall be inserted which states the following:
     Audit and Inspection. During the period that any Glaxo facility is engaged in the manufacture, packaging, generation, storage, testing, treatment, holding, transportation, distribution, release, or other handling or receiving of Final Products distributed or to be distributed by GS, in the event of an Adverse Event associated with any Final Product or any proposed or actual inspection by the FDA or other governmental body of such Glaxo facility, or upon request by GS reasonably related to compliance by such Glaxo facility with applicable cGMP standards, LGLS shall promptly arrange for an audit and inspection of the portions of such GLAXO facility or facilities. All audits shall be conducted by an independent third party, who is selected by LGLS upon the prior written approval of GS, and copies of all audit results shall be provided to GS, which results shall be treated as GLAXO confidential information, pursuant to the Confidential Disclosure Agreement, dated January 24, 2003 and entered into between GLAXO and GS. GS shall be responsible for the cost of all audits conducted as a result of a GS request; provided, however, if the audit reveals any items of material non-compliance with applicable cGMP standards which is found to have caused such Adverse Event, then LGLS shall be responsible for the payment of all costs of such audit.
30. A new Section 7.11 shall be inserted, along with a new Schedule 10.3 attached hereto, which shall state as follows:
 
[***]   Confidential portions of the exhibit have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

11


 

     FDA Guaranty. LGLS has provided to GS a guaranty, attached hereto as Schedule 10.3, that the Products supplied to GS shall not be adulterated or misbranded as of the date of shipment or delivery so as to thereby not be in compliance with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
31. The phrase “Notwithstanding Section 8.1 hereinabove” should be inserted at the beginning of Section 8.2.
32. Sections 8.3, 8.4 and 8.5 shall be deleted and revised as follows:
     8.3 Infringement or Misappropriation of Intellectual Property Rights. If either Party learns of an infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS Patents or GLAXO Patents, or of a misappropriation of LGLS Know-How, GLAXO Know-How or GS Know-How, in any state or country of the Territory in which exists a colorable cause of action for infringement, including patent infringement or provisional rights, or for misappropriation of trade secrets, it the Party first learning of or discovering the alleged infringement or misappropriation shall promptly notify the other Party in writing and shall provide the other Party with all information reasonably available to the notifying Party evidencing such infringement or threatened infringement, or of such misappropriation. Upon such notice, the parties shall in good faith consult in an effort to determine whether a reasonably prudent owner or licensee of intellectual property would institute litigation to enforce the rights at issue in light of all relevant business, economic, and legal factors (including the projected cost of litigation, the likelihood of success on the merits, the probable amount of any damage award, the prospects for satisfaction of any judgment against the alleged infringer or other potential defendant, the possibility of counterclaims against LGLS or GS, the diversion of LGLS’s or GS’s human and economic resources, the impact of any possible adverse outcome on LGLS or GS and the effect any publicity might have on LGLS’s or GS’s respective reputations and goodwill).
     If GS has standing, GS shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring, defend and maintain any appropriate suit or action, or commence settlement negotiations with an alleged infringer, or other potential defendant, for abatement of the infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS or GLAXO Patents, or of the misappropriation of LGLS Know-How, GLAXO Know-How or GS Know-How, in any state or country of the Territory, at GS’s sole expense. If GS lacks such standing and requests LGLS to join GS as a party in such suit or action in order for GS to bring such an action, LGLS shall execute all papers and perform such other acts as may be reasonably requested by GS, at GS’s expense. LGLS shall have the right to participate in any such suit or action using independent counsel, at its sole expense. Any amount recovered by GS as a result of such suit or action shall first be applied to reimburse each of the Parties, pro rata, for any costs or expenses incurred in bringing, defending and maintaining any such action. The balance (the “Net Recovery”) shall be for the sole benefit of GS. The Net Recovery shall be considered “Net Sales” with respect to the calendar quarter in which payment to GS was received, and royalties shall accordingly be paid on the amount of the Net Recovery exclusively at the rate(s) specified in Section 10.3, below. The Net Recovery shall be considered “Net Sales” for purposes of calculating annual Net Sales in accordance with Milestones 3 and 4 in Section 10.2, below.

12


 

     If GS fails to initiate suit or action, or commence settlement negotiations with an alleged infringer, or other potential defendant, within 90 days after first notice of infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS Patents or the GLAXO Patents, or of a misappropriation of LGLS Know-How, GLAXO Know-How or GS Know-How or if having initiated such suit or action it thereafter diligently fails to prosecute such suit or action, LGLS shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring, defend and maintain any appropriate suit or action for abatement of the infringement or threatened infringement, or of a misappropriation of LGLS Know-How, GLAXO Know-How or GS Know-How, at LGLS’s sole expense. If LGLS requests GS to join LGLS as a party in such suit or action, GS shall execute all papers and perform such other acts as may be reasonably requested by LGLS, at LGLS’s expense. GS shall have the right to participate in any such suit or action using independent counsel, at its sole expense. Any amount recovered by LGLS as a result of such suit or action shall first be applied to reimburse each of the Parties, pro rata, for any costs or expenses incurred in bringing, defending and maintaining any such action. The balance shall be divided equally between the Parties. The amount of any recovery, net of the amounts necessary to reimburse the Parties as provided above shall be considered “Net Sales” for purposes of calculating annual Net Sales in accordance with Milestones 3 and 4 in Section 10.2, below. If such recovery is apportioned by the court such that portions thereof are attributed to infringing activity in different calendar years, or if such apportionment of the recovery can otherwise be readily ascertained, then such apportionment shall govern as to the calendar year(s) in which Net Sales shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of such Milestones. Otherwise, the amount of such recovery shall be apportioned equally over the number of calendar years in which infringement was found to have occurred (or in the event of a settlement, over the number of calendar years in which it was alleged to have occurred).
     8.4 Third Party Claims. In the event a Third Party asserts a cause of action concerning alleged infringement of the Third Party’s patent by a Party, or in the event a LGLS Patent or GLAXO Patent is the subject of a legal action by a Third Party seeking declaratory relief, or is subject to an interference, inter partes reexamination or an opposition proceeding instituted by a Third Party, the Parties shall confer and determine whether to defend and how best to control the defense of any such Third Party action. If the Parties disagree whether a defense should be undertaken, then the party desiring to defend the action or proceeding, if such party has standing, may proceed with such defense, but shall be under no obligation to do so, and shall pay its own expenses. In the event the Parties agree that the Third Party action should be defended, such defense shall be controlled by GS with respect to the Territory and by LGLS with respect to outside of the Territory. In each such case, the other Party, if it has standing, shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in such defense, and to be represented in any such Third Party action by counsel of its choice at its sole discretion. With respect to any such Third Party action, the Party entitled to control defense shall also have the right to control settlement of such Third Party action; provided, however, that no settlement shall be entered into without the written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably. In any event, the Party first obtaining knowledge of such Third Party action shall immediately provide the other Party written notice of such and the related facts in reasonable detail, and the Party involved in defending any such Third Party action or proceeding, shall keep the other Party reasonably informed, in writing, of the progress of any such proceeding.

     8.5 Ownership. Subject to Section 9.2, below, each Party shall have and retain sole and exclusive title to all inventions, discoveries and know-how which are made, conceived, reduced to practice or generated solely by its employees or agents in the course of or as a result of this Agreement. Each Party shall own an equal undivided interest in all such inventions, discoveries and know-how made, conceived, reduced to practice or generated jointly by the employees or agents of one Party and the employees or agents of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, inventorship of patentable inventions shall be in accordance with applicable patent law, and ownership of such patentable inventions shall be determined consistent with applicable law concerning inventorship and inventors’ obligation to assign.
          8.5.1 Patent Filings for Joint Inventions. The Parties as joint owners of any joint invention shall jointly pay for the prosecution and maintenance of all Patents directed thereto. All information disclosed to either Party under this Section 8.5.1 shall be deemed to be Confidential Information of the disclosing Party. In the event that a Party elects not to file or discontinues the prosecution or maintenance of any Patents directed to a joint invention, then the other Party may, at its expense, choose to file or continue with the cooperation of the Party choosing not to proceed. A non-electing Party shall assign the Patents on joint inventions to the other electing Party, subject to a non-exclusive, royalty-free and irrevocable license to the non-electing Party under the Patent for the life of the Patent, unless it is determined that such an assignment could endanger the patent estate of the electing Party.
          8.5.2 Further Assurances. Each party has or shall obtain appropriate written agreements from all of its respective employees and agents, without limitation and executed at or as of the commencement of employment or agency, which agreements shall require that all discoveries and inventions conceived or reduced to practice by any individual as a result of the employment or agency shall be promptly reported, fully disclosed, and assigned to the Party employing or otherwise hiring that individual. In the event a patent application is filed directed to the subject matter of the invention, any such assignment shall be promptly recorded in the appropriate patent office(s).
33. A new Section 8.6 shall be inserted which states the following:
     8.6 Covenants. In connection with any proceeding subject to Sections 8.3 or 8.4, neither Party shall enter into any agreement, settlement, or otherwise take any action that results in or constitutes an admission regarding (i) wrongdoing on the part of the other Party, or (ii) the validity, enforceability or absence of infringement of any intellectual property owned by the other Party, without the prior written consent of the affected Party. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith with each other in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding and shall keep each other reasonably informed, in writing, of all material developments in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding.
34. Sections l0.3 and 10.4 shall be deleted and revised as follows:
     10.3 Royalty Payments. In addition to the foregoing license fee and milestone payments, commencing on the second anniversary of the first commercial sale of Product in the Territory, GS shall, subject to Sections 4.3 and 10.4 pay to LGLS royalties on Net Sales in each calendar year at the following rates:

14

over $100 million to $150 million
  [***] percent

  [***] percent
The Parties acknowledge that LGLS has incurred a royalty obligation to GLAXO at a rate of [***] percent of Net Sales for the use of the GLAXO Patents, the GLAXO Know-how and the Trademarks (the “GLAXO Royalty”). During the first two years following first commercial sale of Product in the Territory, GS shall be solely responsible only for payment of the GLAXO Royalty, and all amounts so due shall be paid in accordance with Sections 10.7-10.11 below. Thereafter (i) GS shall pay royalties to LGLS at the royalty rate(s) set forth above, and (ii) LGLS shall be solely responsible for payment of the GLAXO Royalty and shall indemnify GS and hold GS harmless from and against any claims by GLAXO as a result of such use by GS of the GLAXO Patents.
     10.4 Term of Royalty Obligations. GS’s obligation to make royalty payments pursuant to Section 10.3 shall commence as provided in Section 10.3 and shall continue until the later of: (i) the expiration of the last to expire of the LGLS Patents and GLAXO Patents claiming or covering such Product in such country, and (ii) 10 years after first commercial sale of such Product in such country. Following the expiration of GS’s royalty obligations, GS shall retain a non-exclusive, royalty-free right to use, sell and offer for sale Product in the Territory, using LGLS Know-how and GLAXO Know-how licensed to GS as of the Effective Date and the exclusive right to use the Trademarks for such purposes. GS shall continue to pay to LGLS a royalty in return for such right to use the Trademark, as provided in Section 11.4, below.
35. A new Section 13.7.5 shall be inserted, which states the following:
     Obsolete Materials. Upon the end of the Initial Period, GS shall pay for Obsolete Materials in the possession of LGLS in accordance with the terms of Section 5.4.4 of this Agreement. Upon the request of GS, LGLS shall deliver such Obsolete Materials to GS and shall transfer the title to such Obsolete Materials to GS, at GS’s expense. For the removal of doubt, this Section 13.7.5 applies to Obsolete Materials upon the end of the Initial Period and Section 5.4.4 applies to Obsolete Materials during the Initial Period.
36. Section 13.9 shall be amended to include the following provisions, which shall survive upon expiration or termination of the License: Sections 7.8 and 7.9.
37. Section 14.4 shall be deleted and revised to state as follows:

Such product liability insurance shall insure against all liability arising as a result of activities completed or permitted under this Agreement (including, without limitation, liability for personal injury, physical injury, and property damage).

The Parties further agree that these amounts of coverage shall be re-evaluated on an annual basis within thirty (30) days prior to the anniversary of the Effective Date, and that this Section 14.4.1 shall be amended accordingly as necessary. During the Initial Period, GLAXO shall be named as an additional insured on all policies arising under this Section 14.4.1.
     14.4.2 GS further agrees that it shall obtain and maintain during the Initial Period general liability insurance in the total coverage amounts of [***], which shall insure against bodily injury, property damage, personal injury, and advertising injury claims, which are covered under the policy. LGLS agrees that it shall obtain and maintain during the term of this Agreement general liability insurance in the minimum primary coverage amount of [***], which shall insure against bodily injury, property damage, personal injury, and advertising injury claims, which are covered under the policy. The Parties further agree that these amounts of coverage shall be re-evaluated on an annual basis within thirty (30) days prior to the anniversary of the Effective Date, and that this Section 14.4.2 shall be amended accordingly as necessary. During the Initial Period, GLAXO shall be named as an additional insured on all policies arising under this Section 14.4.2.
