5.5.2 Development Costs Budget and Timeline Overruns.

(a) Budget Overruns. With respect to any Development Costs which, pursuant to this Agreement and/or a Global Development Plan or an approved Development Collaboration Proposal, are meant to be allocated between the Parties (rather than one Party being solely responsible for such Development Costs), each Party shall promptly inform the other Party upon determining that it is likely to exceed the budget amounts set forth in the annual Development Budget for the activities such Party is responsible for under the Global Development Plan. To the extent that a Party (or its Affiliates or Sublicensees) incurs Development Costs for the activities such Party is responsible for under the Global Development Plan for a particular Calendar Year which on an aggregate basis for that year exceed the Development Costs allocated for such activity in the initial Development Budget that includes such activity (the “Initial Development Budget”) by *** or less (a “De Minimis Overage Amount”), then such De Minimis Overage Amount shall automatically be included in the Development Budget for such year. However, to the extent that a Party (or its Affiliates or Sublicensees) incurs Development Costs for the activities such Party is responsible for under the Development Plan for a particular Calendar Year which on an aggregate basis for that year exceed the Development Costs allocated for such activity in the Initial Development Budget by more than ***, the “Excess Overage Amount”), the Party that has so exceeded its budget shall

 

30

*** = Portions of this exhibit have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment. An unredacted

provide to the JRDC a full explanation for so exceeding its budget and such Excess Overage Amount shall only be included in the Development Budget to the extent that the JRDC agrees to allow some or all of the Excess Overage Amount to be included in the Development Budget as it considers equitable under the circumstances. To the extent that the JRDC does not agree to treat the Excess Overage Amount as Development Costs, the Party that has exceeded its budget shall be solely responsible for the Excess Overage Amount.

(b) Timeline Overruns. Each Party shall promptly inform the other Party upon determining that it is likely to miss a Development date set forth in the Global Development Plan. To the extent that a Party (or its Affiliates) misses such a date by *** or more, the Party that has experienced such Development timeline failure shall provide to the JRDC a full explanation for such Development timeline failure. Such notification shall not serve to excuse a Party from its diligence or other obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Reconciliation. Within *** following the end of each Calendar Quarter beginning with the License Grant Date, each Party shall prepare and deliver to the other Party a quarterly report detailing its Development Costs and Manufacturing Process Development Costs incurred during such period, with each Party reporting on all Development Costs incurred with respect to Development Collaboration Proposals. Each Party shall submit any additional information reasonably requested by the other Party related to the Development Costs and Manufacturing Process Development Costs included in its report within *** of its receipt of such request.

13.1 Indemnification by Servier. Servier shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the MacroGenics Indemnitees from and against any and all losses, damages, fees, expenses, settlement amounts or costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and witness fees) (“Losses”) relating to or in connection with a Third Party claim in the Servier Territory arising out of (a) any actual death, personal bodily injury or damage to real or tangible personal property proven to result, directly or indirectly, from the possession, use or consumption of, or treatment with, a Program Antibody or Licensed Product Researched, Developed, Manufactured or Commercialized in the Servier Territory by or on behalf of Servier or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, including any product liability claims; (b) any breach by Servier of its representations, warranties or covenants made under this Agreement; or (c) any negligent act or omission or willful misconduct of Servier or its Affiliates or Sublicensees or any of their employees, contractors or agents, in performing Servier’s obligations or exercising Servier’s rights under this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the extent that any such Losses (i) are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the MacroGenics Indemnitees, or (ii) are otherwise subject to an obligation by MacroGenics to indemnify the Servier Indemnitees under Section 13.2. For purposes of clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Servier shall not be liable for any Losses resulting from any claim in the MacroGenics Territory that results from any acts or omissions of MacroGenics, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, even if Servier had knowledge of, reviewed, commented on, or approved such acts or omissions of MacroGenics’ or its Affiliates’ or Sublicensees’ plans with respect thereto.

13.2 Indemnification by MacroGenics. MacroGenics shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Servier Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses relating to or in connection with a Third Party claim in the MacroGenics Territory arising out of (a) any actual death, personal bodily injury or damage to real or tangible personal property proven to result, directly

13.3 Procedure. In the event of a claim by a Third Party against any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Party claiming indemnification (in such capacity, the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the other Party (in such capacity, the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the claim (it being understood that the failure by the Indemnified Party to give prompt notice of a Third Party claim as provided in this Section 13.3 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure to give prompt notice). Within *** after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, undertake and solely manage and control, at its sole expense and with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, the defense of the claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake such defense, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. The Party not controlling such defense shall cooperate with the other Party and may, at its option and expense, participate in such defense with counsel of its choice; provided, that, if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party in good faith concludes, based on advice from counsel, that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party (or the relevant MacroGenics Indemnitee or Servier Indemnitee seeking indemnification) have conflicting interests with respect to such action, suit, proceeding or claim, the Indemnified Party’s counsels may fully participate in such defense and the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the indemnified Persons solely in connection therewith. The Party controlling such defense shall keep the other Party advised of the status of such action, suit, proceeding or claim and the defense thereof and shall consider recommendations made by the other Party with respect thereto. Except if the Indemnifying Party did not undertake defense of the claim or if the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party (or the relevant MacroGenics Indemnitee or Servier Indemnitee seeking indemnification) have conflicting interests with respect to such action, suit, proceeding or claim and the Indemnified Party engages separate counsel, as provided above, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any litigation costs or expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party without the Indemnifying Party’s written consent. The Indemnified Party shall not settle any such action, suit, proceeding or claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall

 

57

*** = Portions of this exhibit have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment. An unredacted

version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Commission.


not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, any such action, suit, proceeding or claim, or consent to any judgment in respect thereof, that does not include a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect thereto, that imposes any liability or obligation on the Indemnified Party or that acknowledges fault by the Indemnified Party.

13.4 Allocation. In the event a claim is based partially on an indemnified claim and partially on a non-indemnified claim or based partially on a claim indemnified by one Party and partially on a claim indemnified by the other Party, any payments in connection with such claims are to be apportioned between the Parties in accordance with the degree of cause attributable to each Party.

13.5 EXCLUSION OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO A BREACH OF ARTICLE 11 OR THIRD PARTY CLAIMS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS ARTICLE 13, NEITHER MACROGENICS NOR SERVIER, NOR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER LIABILITY IS ASSERTED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT PRODUCT LIABILITY), INDEMNITY OR CONTRIBUTION, AND IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER SUCH PARTY OR ANY REPRESENTATIVE OF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF, OR OTHERWISE MIGHT HAVE ANTICIPATED THE POSSIBILITY OF, ANY SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE.

Either Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) may, without prejudice to any other remedies available to it under applicable Law or in equity, terminate this Agreement if the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) shall have materially breached or defaulted in the performance of its obligations hereunder, and such default shall have continued for *** after written notice thereof was provided to the Breaching Party by the Non-Breaching Party, such notice describing the alleged breach. Any such termination of this Agreement under this Section 14.2 shall become effective at the end of such *** cure period, unless the Breaching Party has cured such breach or default prior to the expiration of such cure period provided

however that if the Breaching Party notifies the Non-Breaching Party within such *** period that the Breaching Party disagrees in good faith with such asserted basis for termination, this Agreement shall not terminate unless and until the matter has been finally resolved in accordance with section 16.2 “Arbitration” and the arbitration award rendered in accordance with section 16.2 specify that the Non-Breaching Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement based on such asserted Breach. The right of either Party to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 14.2 shall not be affected in any way by such Party’s waiver or failure to take action with respect to any previous default.

14.3 Termination for Patent Challenge. If either Party or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees: (a) commences or otherwise voluntarily determines to participate in any action or proceeding (including any patent opposition or re-examination proceeding), challenging or denying the validity of any of the other Party’s Patents or Joint Patents licensed hereunder or any claim thereof, or (b) actively assists any other Person in bringing or prosecuting any action or proceeding (including any patent opposition or re-examination proceeding) challenging or denying the validity of any of such Patents or any claim thereof, the non-challenging Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon *** written notice to the other Party. Any such termination shall only become effective if the challenging Party or its Affiliate or Sublicensee, as applicable, has not withdrawn such action before the end of the above notice period.

14.4 Termination for Convenience.

14.4.1 During the Research Term. ***, Servier shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon not less than *** prior written notice thereof to MacroGenics.

14.5 Termination for Insolvency Event: Either Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other Party if the other Party suffers an Insolvency Event.

14.6 Termination by Servier for Safety or Public Health Reasons. If Servier reasonably determines that a safety or public health issue has arisen which (a) is demonstrated by clinically relevant events which are documented and (b) relates to a Program Antibody or a Licensed Product, such that the medical risk/benefit of such Program Antibody of Licensed Product is sufficiently unfavorable as to be incompatible with the welfare of patients to Develop or Commercialize or to continue to Develop or Commercialize such Program Antibody or Licensed Product, Servier shall immediately notify MacroGenics, and Servier shall be permitted to terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon written notice to MacroGenics, but in any event within *** of Servier’s determination of such issue.

14.7 Effect of Expiration or Termination.

When the cost and burden of discovery are disproportionate to the likely importance of the requested materials, the arbitrator may deny the requests or require that the requesting party advance the reasonable cost of production to the other Party.

16.2.9 Injunctive Relief. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed as preventing either Party from seeking injunctive relief (or any other provisional remedy such as temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable relief) from the arbitrators or from any court having jurisdiction over the Parties (and prior to or during any arbitration if necessary to protect the interests of such Party in avoiding irreparable harm or to preserve the status quo pending the arbitration proceeding) and the subject matter of the dispute as necessary to protect either Party’s name, proprietary information, Know-How or any other proprietary right or otherwise to avoid irreparable harm.

16.5 Force Majeure. No Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party nor be deemed to be in default under, or in breach of any provision of, this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any obligation (other than a payment obligation) of this Agreement when such failure or delay is due to force majeure, and without the fault or negligence of the Party so failing or delaying.

***, after which time MacroGenics and Servier shall promptly meet to discuss in good faith how to best proceed in a manner that maintains and abides by this Agreement. To the extent possible, each Party shall use reasonable efforts to minimize the duration of any force majeure. If a force majeure event prevents a Party from performing any of its Development obligations for a Global Clinical Trial or Manufacturing obligations hereunder that would delay the Development or Manufacture of Licensed Product in the non-affected Party’s Territory, then, if the Parties can not agree on how to best proceed following such discussions, then, notwithstanding the exclusive license grants hereunder, the Party not affected by the force majeure event shall be permitted to either perform directly or engage a Third Party clinical research organization or contract manufacturing organization to perform such Development and/or Manufacturing obligations for the duration of such force majeure event.

16.6 Notices. Any notice or request required or permitted to be given under or in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given if in writing and personally delivered or sent by certified mail (return receipt requested), facsimile transmission (receipt verified), or reputable international business courier (signature required), prepaid, to the Party for which such notice is intended, at the address set forth for such Party below:

Press Release

MacroGenics and Servier Enter Development and Commercialization

Agreement for Novel Anti-Cancer Drug

 

   

MGA271 is a therapeutic monoclonal antibody that recognizes B7-H3, a member of the B7 family of immune regulators, that is over-expressed on a wide variety of solid tumors

 

   

MacroGenics retains full program rights in North America, Japan, Korea and India

 

   

Servier has an option to obtain an exclusive license to develop and commercialize MGA271 in the rest of the world.

ROCKVILLE, Maryland and SURESNES , France –                  , 2011 – MacroGenics, Inc., a privately held biotechnology company that develops next generation antibody therapeutics, and Servier, France’s largest privately-held pharmaceutical company, announced today that they have entered into an option and license agreement for the development and commercialization of MGA271, MacroGenics’ proprietary product candidate. MGA271 is a first-in-class, Fc-optimized monoclonal antibody that targets B7-H3 and is currently being studied in a Phase 1 clinical trial for the treatment of solid tumors.

MGA271 is a next generation monoclonal antibody which incorporates multiple complementary mechanisms of action including enhanced immuno-stimulatory properties and targeting of tumor vasculature. B7-H3 target is overexpressed in several malignancies requiring innovative therapeutic approaches. Following very promising pre-clinical results, we will work together to define the clinical indications and the best drug combinations and to identify early biomarkers predictive of response”, said Dr. Stéphane Depil, MD, PhD, in charge of Oncology Research & Development at Servier. “Today’s announcement underscores Servier’s commitment to develop novel targeted therapies that address significant unmet medical needs for cancer patients,” added Dr. Emmanuel Canet, MD, PhD, President Research & development at Servier. “MGA271 is a novel immunotherapeutic with a compelling product profile and the potential to treat a broad spectrum of solid tumors. We have been deeply impressed by both the excellence of science being conducted by MacroGenics and their world class antibody development capabilities. We are looking forward to building a long-term strategic collaboration with MacroGenics.” Under the terms of the agreement, MacroGenics retains full development and commercialization rights to MGA271 in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Japan, Korea and India, while Servier has an option to obtain an exclusive license covering the rest of the world. Prior to the exercise of Servier’s option, both parties will fund and conduct specified research and development activities. MacroGenics will receive a $20 million upfront payment. If Servier exercises its option upon completion of the Phase 1 study and its expansion cohorts, MacroGenics will receive an option exercise fee which, combined with the up-front and early development milestone payments, will total $60 million. In addition, MacroGenics could receive up to an additional $390 million in clinical, regulatory and commercialization milestone payments. Finally, MacroGenics may receive tiered, double-digit royalties on future net sales. Both parties will share the clinical development costs following the option exercise.

“We are delighted to enter into this collaboration with Servier. It will significantly broaden and accelerate our clinical plans for MGA271, enabling us to further investigate the multiple solid tumor types for which MGA271 may have activity,” said Dr. Scott Koenig, President and CEO of MacroGenics. “This important collaboration highlights the rapidly growing excitement surrounding the B7 family of immune regulators in oncology immunotherapy as well as our Fc engineering platform.”

“Servier is a world-class pharmaceutical company with a long history of successful innovation and a dedication to research for the benefit of patients,” Dr. Koenig continued. “They have an expansive global footprint and are an ideal partner to maximize the potential of MGA271.”

MGA271 is currently being tested in an open-label, multi-dose, single-arm, dose-escalation Phase 1 study in patients with refractory B7-H3-expressing neoplasms. The trial employs a companion diagnostic for B7-H3 which will enable prospective screening of patients for expression of the target antigen. Enrollment of the first dosing cohort has been completed. Clinical investigators include Dr. Howard Burris at Sarah Cannon Research Institute, Dr. Roger Cohen at Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania/Abramson Cancer Center and Dr. Keith Flaherty at Massachusetts General Hospital.

About MGA271

MGA271 is a humanized IgG1/kappa monoclonal antibody that recognizes human B7-H3, a novel member of the B7 family of immune regulators. B7-H3 is an attractive target for immunotherapy, as it is over-expressed in a variety of solid tumors, including prostate, pancreatic, melanoma, renal cell, ovarian, colorectal, gastric, bladder, and non-small cell lung cancers. MGA271 has been Fc-optimized using MacroGenics’ proprietary Fc-engineering platform to further augment its tumor killing activity. The product’s Fc region imparts increased affinity for the human activating Fc-gamma receptor IIIA (Fc-gamma RIIIA, CD16A) and decreased affinity for the inhibitory Fc-gamma RIIB (CD32B).
