15.1Informal Discussions. Except as otherwise provided herein, in the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this MSA, or the rights or obligations of the Parties hereunder, the Parties shall first try to settle their differences amicably between themselves through the Core Team and then JSC level. Thereafter, either Party may initiate informal dispute resolution on the Executive level by sending written notice of the dispute to the other Party, and within [* * *] days after such notice appropriate Executives of the Parties shall attempt resolution by good faith negotiations. If such representatives are unable to resolve promptly such disputed matter within the said [* * *] days, either Party may refer the matter by written notice to the Chief Executive Officer of the other Party, or his/her designee, and the Chief Executive Officer of such Party, for discussion and resolution. If such individuals or their designees are unable to resolve such dispute within [* * *] days of such written notice, either Party may initiate arbitration proceedings in accordance with the provisions of this Article 15.
15.2Arbitration. If the Parties do not fully settle a dispute pursuant to Section 15.1, and a Party wishes to pursue the matter, each such dispute, controversy or claim shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”), and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof to enforce the arbitration award. The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three persons experienced in the pharmaceutical business, and within [* * *] days after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall select one person to act as arbitrator and the two Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within [* * *] days of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the ICC. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York, United States and all proceedings and communications shall be in English. Either Party may apply to the arbitrators for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this MSA, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or provisional relief necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the arbitration award. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a Party’s direct compensatory damages, and in all cases, any decision or determination by the arbitrators shall comply with Article 14, as applicable. The Parties agree that, in the event of a good faith dispute over the nature or quality of performance under this MSA, neither Party may terminate this MSA until final resolution of the dispute through arbitration or other judicial determination.
15.3Costs and Fees. Each Party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees, costs, and disbursements arising out of the arbitration, and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the arbitrators. Absent the filing of an application to correct or vacate the arbitration award as permitted by Applicable Law, each Party shall fully perform and satisfy the arbitration award within [* * *]days after the service of the award on such Party.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no alteration of or modification to the MSA shall be effective unless made in writing and executed by an authorized representative of both Parties. No course of dealing or failing of either Party to strictly enforce any term, right or condition of the MSA in any instance shall be construed as a general waiver or relinquishment of such term, right or condition. The observance of any provision of the MSA may be waived (either generally or any given instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of the Party granting such waiver.
16.10Corporate Policy. SBL acknowledges that the corporate policy of Client requires that Client’s business must be conducted within the letter and spirit of the law.

16.11Severability. The Parties do not intend to violate any Applicable Law. However, if any sentence, paragraph, clause or combination of the MSA is in violation of any law or is found to be otherwise unenforceable, such sentence, paragraph, clause or combination of the same shall be deleted and the remainder of the MSA shall remain binding, provided that such deletion does not alter the basic purpose and structure of the MSA and if deletion of such provision materially alters the basis of this MSA, then the Parties shall negotiate a good faith alternative.
16.12Construction. The Parties mutually acknowledge that they have participated in the negotiation and preparation of the MSA. Ambiguities, if any, in the MSA shall not be construed against any Party, irrespective of which Party may be deemed to have drafted the MSA or authored the ambiguous provision.
16.13Interpretation. The captions and headings to the MSA are for convenience only, and are to be of no force or effect in construing or interpreting any of the provisions of the MSA. Unless context otherwise clearly requires, whenever used in the MSA: (a) the words “include” or “including” shall be construed as incorporating, also, “but not limited to” or “without limitation”; (b) the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and derivative or similar words refer to the MSA; (c) all references to the word “will” are interchangeable with the word “shall” and shall be understood to be imperative or mandatory in nature.
