8.2.5 With respect to any substantial and continuing infringement of the Licensed Patent Rights by a third party making, using, offering for sale, selling or importing a product that consists of an Exclusive Biologic combined with PH20 Drug
([*****]) that is directed to the Exclusive Field in a country, on a country-by-country basis, if Halozyme fails to abate such infringement or to file an action to abate such infringement within [*****] days (or [*****] days in the case of a paragraph IV certification) after a written request from Intrexon to do so, or if Halozyme discontinues the prosecution of any such action after filing without abating such infringement, then until such time as such infringement is abated, the royalty rate for the Product in such country shall be reduced by [*****] of the royalty rate set forth in Section 4.4.
8.2.6 With respect any action to enforce the Licensed Patent Rights to abate any infringement of the Licensed Patent Rights by a third party making, using, offering for sale, selling or importing a product that consists of an Exclusive Biologic combined with PH20 Drug ([*****]) that is directed to the Exclusive Field in a country, all monies recovered upon the final judgment or settlement of any such action shall be used (a) first, to reimburse the costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and costs) of Halozyme and Intrexon; and (b) the remainder to be shared equally between the parties.
8.3 Grantback License. Intrexon hereby grants to Halozyme a perpetual, royalty-free, fully paid up, nonexclusive, worldwide license under any Grantback Patents for the purpose of developing, making, using, selling, offering for sale or importing PH20 Drug ([*****]) alone or combined with any biologic or molecule, in each case other than (i) Products in the Licensed Field, or (ii) products that consist of an Exclusive Biologic combined with PH20 Drug ([*****]) that is directed to the Exclusive Field. Halozyme shall have the right to grant sublicenses under such rights to any third party provided that such third party has similarly granted to Halozyme a grantback license (with the right to sublicense to Intrexon). If Halozyme is unable to obtain such a grantback license from any such third party, then Halozyme shall not grant a sublicense to such third party under the foregoing license grant from Intrexon, and any such sublicense granted by Halozyme to such third party shall be void. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing license grant shall not include rights to any molecule separate from the combination with PH20 Drug ([*****]).

existing written agreement to hold in confidence and not disclose, use or grant the use of the Confidential Information of the other party except as expressly permitted under this Agreement. Each party shall notify the other party promptly upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the other partys Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Confidential Information that the disclosing party deems to be a trade secret under applicable law, the confidentiality obligations hereunder shall continue with respect to such Confidential Information for so long as it is deemed a trade secret under applicable law.
9.2 Terms of Agreement. Neither party shall disclose any terms or conditions of this Agreement to any third party without the prior consent of the other party; provided, however, that a party may disclose the terms or conditions of this Agreement (a) on a need-to-know basis to its legal and financial advisors to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary or (b) to a third party in connection with (i) an equity investment in such party, (ii) a merger, consolidation or similar transaction by such party, (iii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of such party or (iv) a collaboration or strategic alliance relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.
9.3 Permitted Disclosures. The confidentiality obligations under this Article 9 shall not apply to the extent that a party is required to disclose information by applicable law, regulation, stock exchange listing or order of a governmental agency or a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that (to the extent practicable) such party shall provide written notice thereof to the other party, consult with the other party with respect to such disclosure and provide the other party sufficient opportunity to object to any such disclosure or to request confidential treatment thereof.
9.4 Publications. Either party may publish the results of its research and/or development under this Agreement in order to obtain recognition within the scientific community and to advance the state of scientific knowledge, and such publication shall be subject to the following procedures. If a party desires to make any such publication (including any oral disclosure made without obligation of confidentiality), such party shall provide the other party with a copy of the proposed written publication at least thirty [*****] prior to submission for publication, or an outline of such oral disclosure at least [*****] days prior to presentation. At the request of the other party, the publishing party shall remove any Confidential Information of the other party therefrom. The other party additionally shall have the right (a) to propose modifications to the publication for patent reasons, and (b) to request a reasonable delay in publication in order to protect patentable information. If the other party requests such a delay, the publishing party shall delay submission or presentation of the publication and shall not proceed with the written publication or the presentation without the prior written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (provided that it would be unreasonable (x) for Intrexon to withhold consent if Intrexons primary reason for doing do is marketing concerns due to the Product performing better than a Intrexon Subcutaneous Product or (y) for Halozyme to withhold consent if Halozymes primary reason for doing so is marketing concerns due to the Product performing worse than a Intrexon Subcutaneous Product).
9.5 Clinical Trial Registry. Intrexon, in accordance with ClinicalTrials.gov or equivalent regulatory agency policies and procedures, shall have the right to publish all studies, clinical trials and results thereof regarding Product (but not PH20 Drug alone) on the clinical trial registries which are maintained by or on behalf of Intrexon.

10. | INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE. |
10.1 By Intrexon. Intrexon shall indemnify and hold harmless Halozyme, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against all losses, liabilities, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees and costs (collectively, Liabilities), resulting from any claims, demands, actions or other proceedings by any third party to the extent resulting from (a) the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant by Intrexon under this Agreement; (b) the use by Intrexon, its sublicensees or their respective Affiliates of the Licensed IP Rights beyond the scope of the licenses granted herein; (c) the manufacture, use, sale, handling or storage of Products by Intrexon, its sublicensees or their respective Affiliates, customers or end-users; or (d) the use by Intrexon, its sublicensees or their respective Affiliates of the Confidential Information of Halozyme; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnification obligation shall not apply to the extent the applicable Liability results from clauses (a) (d) under Section 10.2 below.
10.2 By Halozyme. Halozyme shall indemnify and hold harmless Intrexon, its Affiliates and their directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against all Liabilities resulting from any claims, demands, actions or other proceedings by any third party to the extent resulting from (a) the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant by Halozyme under this Agreement; (b) the use by Halozyme, its sublicensees or their respective Affiliates of the Grantback Patents beyond the scope of the licenses granted herein; (c) the manufacture, use, sale, handling or storage of API by Halozyme or its CMOs or other suppliers; or (d) the use by Halozyme, its sublicensees or their respective Affiliates of the Confidential Information of Intrexon; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnification obligation shall not apply to the extent the applicable Liability results from clauses (a) (d) under Section 10.1 above.
10.3 Procedure. If a party (the Indemnitee) intends to claim indemnification under this Section 10.3, it shall promptly notify the other party (the Indemnitor) in writing of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding for which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification, and the Indemnitor shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Indemnitor so desires, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnitor, if representation of such Indemnitee by the counsel retained by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The obligations of this Section 10.3 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably. The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve the Indemnitor of any obligation to the Indemnitee under this Section 10.3. The Indemnitee, its employees and agents, shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding covered by this Section 10.3.

Each party shall provide the other party [*****] days notice of any material change, cancellation or non-renewal of any required insurance under this Agreement.
