   * **%

9.3.2 Royalty Term and Post-Royalty Term. Licensee’s obligation to pay royalties to Immunomedics on Net Sales of the Product shall commence on a country-by-country basis upon the First Commercial Sale of the Product in a country hereunder and shall expire on a country-by-country basis upon the later of: (a) the last to expire (including any Patent Term Extension period) Immunomedics Patent or Joint Collaboration Patent having a Valid Claim which covers the Product, or the Development, Manufacturing or Commercialization of the Product, in such country or (b) *** for the First Indication receiving Product Approval in such country (the “Royalty Term”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, after the Royalty Term with respect to a country, there exists a Licensee Patent having a Valid Claim which covers the Product, or the Development, Manufacturing or the Commercialization of the Product in such country (and, for clarity, there is no Immunomedics Patent or Joint Collaboration Patent having a Valid Claim which covers the Product, or the Development, Manufacturing or the Commercialization of the Product in such country), and therefore the Royalty Term with respect to such country has expired) (the “Post-Royalty Term”), royalties shall be payable by Licensee on Net Sales of Products in such country at a royalty rate equal to *** of such Net Sales.

9.3.3 Assessing Patentability, Validity and Enforceability of Pending Patent Applications and Issued Patents (Valid Claim). If at any time with respect to a Product (a) royalties would not be required hereunder but for one or more pending, but not issued, Valid Claim(s) of Immunomedics Patents and (b) Licensee believes in good faith that each such pending, but not issued, Valid Claim is, after patent prosecution, unlikely to issue or to be patentable or to be enforceable in a form that will cover such Product with a scope that would require payment of royalties hereunder, then Licensee may notify Immunomedics in writing to request an assessment of such Valid Claim pursuant to the procedures as set forth in this Section 9.3.3. Within ***, the Parties shall meet to discuss Licensee’s questions. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement regarding such issue within ***, the Parties shall engage ***independent Third Party patent attorneys to assess such Valid Claim, with each Party appointing one of such Third Party patent attorneys and the ***patent attorneys so appointed selecting the ***. All ***Third Party patent attorneys shall be jointly engaged by the Parties, with the Parties sharing equally in the fees of such attorneys. The standard on which any such determination shall be based is whether all such Valid Claim(s) are, after routine patent prosecution, reasonably unlikely to issue or reasonably unlikely to be patentable or reasonably unlikely to be valid or

42


reasonably unlikely to be enforceable in a form that will cover such Product with a scope that would require payment of royalties hereunder. The determination of the *** Third Party patent attorneys shall be binding on the Parties. All proceedings and determinations pursuant to this Section 9.3.3 and information disclosed in connection therewith, whether or not written, shall remain the Confidential Information of both Parties and shall not be used by either Party for any purpose other than the proceedings set forth in this Section 9.3.3, provided that Immunomedics shall have the right to use any such information in the prosecution and defense of the applicable Immunomedics Patents. If the determination pursuant to this Section 9.3.3 is that royalties would not be required hereunder, then such Valid Claim shall not be considered a Patent having a Valid Claim with respect to the Royalty Term pursuant to Section 9.3.2 and with respect to royalties payable pursuant to Section 9.3.1.

9.4 Royalty Payments and Reports. Licensee shall calculate all amounts payable to Immunomedics pursuant to Section 9.3 with respect to Net Sales at the end of ***, which amounts shall be converted to Dollars at such time in accordance with Section 9.8. Licensee shall pay to Immunomedics the royalty amount due for Net Sales during a given *** within ***. Each payment of royalties due to Immunomedics shall be accompanied by a statement of the amount of gross sales of the Product in the Territory during the applicable *** (including such amounts expressed in local currency and as converted to Dollars), an itemized calculation of Net Sales in the Territory showing deductions provided for in the definition of “Net Sales” during such ***, and a calculation of the amount of royalty payment due on such Net Sales for such ***. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Licensee shall require its Affiliates and sublicensees to account for its Net Sales and to provide such reports with respect thereto as if such sales were made by Licensee.

9.5 Third Party Royalty Payments. If Licensee is required to obtain a license from any Third Party under any Patent that (in absence of a license) would be infringed by the manufacture, use or sale of the Product as it exists on the Effective Date (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any additional technology that may be combined or incorporated therewith), and if Licensee is required to pay to such Third Party under such license any royalties calculated on sales of corresponding Product (“Third Party Amounts”), and the infringement of such patent cannot reasonably be avoided by Licensee, then Licensee shall be permitted to credit up to *** of the amount of such Third Party Amounts it actually pays in each *** against royalties that are payable to Immunomedics during the same ***; provided that in no event shall royalties payable to Immunomedics be reduced to *** of the rates set forth in Section 9.3.1 on account of applying such credits; ***. Licensee shall, where it is aware of the same, provide Immunomedics with prior written notice of a potential need to obtain any license from any Third Party. If there is any dispute between the Parties with respect to whether Licensee is required to obtain any such license under which Third Party Amounts would be payable and eligible for deduction from royalties as provided above, the dispute shall be referred to the Parties’ respective patent counsels for resolution and, if such patent counsels are unable to resolve the dispute within ***, the dispute resolution procedures in ARTICLE 17 may be implemented by either Party.

9.6 Bioequivalent Products. Notwithstanding the royalty amounts that would otherwise be payable under Section 9.3.1, in any *** in which aggregate annual Net Sales are less than $***, royalties otherwise payable by Licensee on Net Sales of Product shall be reduced on a country-by-country basis to the following rates at any such time where aggregate sales in such country of Bioequivalent Products (excluding any sales by Licensee, or its Affiliates and any sales of Product by Licensee’s sublicensees), measured over the applicable *** equal to or exceed the following percentage unit sales volume for the Product in such *** in such country:

9.7.1 Royalty Withholding Taxes. Any income or other taxes which Licensee is required by Law to pay or withhold on behalf of Immunomedics with respect to any payments of royalties payable to Immunomedics pursuant to Section 9.3 shall be deducted from the amount of such payments due, and paid or withheld, as appropriate, by Licensee on behalf of Immunomedics. Any such tax required by applicable Law to be paid or withheld shall be an expense of, and borne solely by, Immunomedics.

INDEMNIFICATION

12.1 Indemnification by Immunomedics. Immunomedics hereby agrees to save, defend and hold Licensee, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) arising in connection with any and all charges, complaints, actions, suits, proceedings, hearings, investigations, claims, demands, judgments, orders, decrees, stipulations or injunctions by a Third Party (each a “Third Party Claim”) resulting or otherwise arising from (a) any breach by Immunomedics of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations pursuant to this Agreement and (b) the negligence or willful misconduct by Immunomedics or its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors and employees in performing any obligations under this Agreement; in each case except to the extent that such Losses are subject to indemnification by Licensee pursuant to Section 12.2.

12.2 Indemnification by Licensee. Licensee hereby agrees to save, defend and hold Immunomedics, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, agents and employees harmless from and against any and all Losses arising in connection with any and all Third Party Claims resulting or otherwise arising from (a) any breach by Licensee of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, (b) the negligence or willful misconduct by Licensee or its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, consultants or sublicensees in performing any obligations under this Agreement, (c) any matter related to the Development, Manufacturing, handling, use, Packaging and Labeling or Commercialization of the Product by Licensee or its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, consultants or sublicensees (including, for clarity any product liability Losses howsoever arising) and (d) the Promotional and Educational Materials, the Product packaging and labeling (including any insertion materials such as patient inserts, patient medication guides, and professional inserts and any other written, printed or graphic materials accompanying the Product, considered to be part of the finished packaged Product), Product pricing and reimbursement, or any acts or omissions of the Sales and Educational Representatives in promoting and selling the Product in the Territory; in each case except to the extent that such Losses are subject to indemnification by Immunomedics pursuant to Section 12.1.

12.3 Indemnification Procedures.

12.3.1 Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims in respect of any indemnitee seeking indemnity under Section 12.1 or 12.2, as applicable (collectively, the “Indemnitees” and each an “Indemnitee”) will be made solely by the corresponding Party (the “Indemnified Party”). The Indemnified Party will give the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) of any Losses and any legal proceeding initiated by a Third Party against the Indemnified

 

*** Portion for which confidential treatment requested.

57


Party as to which the Indemnified Party intends to make a request for indemnification under Section 12.1 or 12.2, as applicable, but in no event will the Indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice which materially prejudices the defense of such proceeding. Each Indemnification Claim Notice shall contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss are known at such time). Together with the Indemnification Claim Notice, the Indemnified Party will furnish promptly to the Indemnifying Party copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by any Indemnitee in connection with the Third Party Claim.

12.3.2 Control of Defense. At its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim subject to indemnification as provided for in Section 12.1 or 12.2, as applicable, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel it selects, and such Indemnifying Party shall thereafter continue to defend such Third Party Claim in good faith. Should the Indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim (and continue to defend such Third Party Claim in good faith), the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party or any other Indemnitee for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party or other Indemnitee in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim, unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with this Section 12.3.

12.3.3 Right to Participate in Defense. Without limiting Section 12.3.2, any Indemnitee will be entitled to participate in, the defense of a Third Party Claim for which it has sought indemnification hereunder and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment will be at the Indemnitee’s own expense unless (a) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing, or (b) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense (or continue to defend such Third Party Claim in good faith) and employ counsel in accordance with this Section 12.3.3, in which case the Indemnified Party will be allowed to control the defense.

12.3.4 Settlement. With respect to any Losses relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnitee becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affect the business of the Indemnitee in any manner, and as to which the Indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder, the Indemnifying Party will have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its reasonable discretion, will deem appropriate (provided, however that such terms shall include a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect thereto), and will transfer to the Indemnified Party all amounts which said Indemnified Party will be liable to pay prior to the time of the entry of judgment. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third

 

*** Portion for which confidential treatment requested.

58


Party Claim in accordance with Section 12.3.2, the Indemnifying Party will have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will be at the Indemnified Party’s reasonable discretion). The Indemnifying Party that has assumed the defense of (and continues to defend) the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 12.3.2 will not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnitee that is reached without the written consent of such Indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnitee will admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without first offering to the Indemnifying Party the opportunity to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 12.3.2.

12.3.5 Cooperation. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will, and will cause each other Indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection with such Third Party Claim. Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours afforded to the Indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnitees and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with such cooperation.

12.3.6 Expenses of the Indemnified Party. Except as provided above, the reasonable and verifiable costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any Third Party Claim will be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the Indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the Indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the Indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.

12.4 Limitation of Liability. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 12.4 IS INTENDED TO OR SHALL LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF ANY PARTY UNDER SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2, OR DAMAGES AVAILABLE FOR A PARTY’S BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER ARTICLE 13. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY IN ARTICLE 11, LICENSEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IMMUNOMEDICS HAS MADE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR

12.5 Insurance. Licensee shall procure and maintain insurance, including product liability insurance, adequate to cover its obligations hereunder and which are consistent with normal business practices of prudent companies similarly situated at all times during which the Product is being clinically tested in human subjects or commercially distributed or sold by or on behalf of Licensee pursuant to this Agreement, and the insurance coverage shall in no event be less than (a) prior to the First Commercial Sale of a Product in the Territory, $*** per loss occurrence and $*** in the aggregate, and (b) after such First Commercial Sale in the Territory, $*** per loss occurrence and $*** in the aggregate. It is understood that such insurance shall not be construed to create a limit of Licensee’s liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this ARTICLE 12. Licensee shall provide Immunomedics with written evidence of such insurance upon request. Licensee shall provide Immunomedics with written notice at least *** prior to the cancellation, nonrenewal or material change in such insurance or self-insurance which materially adversely affects the rights of the Immunomedics hereunder.

Upon termination of this Agreement, the Receiving Party shall return or destroy all documents, tapes or other media containing Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party that remain in the possession of the Receiving Party or its directors, managers, employees, independent contractors, agents or consultants, except that the Receiving Party may keep one copy of the Confidential Information in the legal department files of the Receiving Party, solely for archival purposes. Such archival copy shall be deemed to be the property of the Disclosing Party, and shall continue to be subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE 13. It is understood that receipt of Confidential Information under this Agreement will not limit the Receiving Party from assigning its employees to any particular job or task in any way it may choose, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
