[ * ]

[ * ]. Each milestone payment is payable only once. The milestone payments will be unconditional and as such shall not be subject to any offset, credit, reduction or repayment for any reason whatsoever.

5.3. Sales Milestone Payments.

5.3.2. Merck will pay a one-time sales milestone payment of [ * ] within

thirty (30) days following the first time that total Net Sales of Products in the Territory in a Calendar Year are equal to or greater than [ * ].

5.3.3. Merck will pay a one-time sales milestone payment of [ * ] within thirty (30) days following the first time that total Net Sales of Products in the Territory in a Calendar Year are equal to or greater than [ * ].

The [ * ] will be [ * ] of [ * ] within [ * ] after the [ * ] when such [ * ]. The [ * ] shall be [ * ] and as such [ * ] any reason whatsoever.

5.4. Royalties on Net Sales. Merck will pay Licensors royalties on a country-by-country and Product-by-Product basis according to the following schedule:

5.4.1. Licensed Products.

5.4.1.1. If the manufacture, sale, use or import of the Licensed Product at the time of First Commercial Sale in a country (or after issuance of such a Patent if it issues after First Commercial Sale) would infringe a Valid Claim of the Licensed Patents, the royalty rate shall be:

5.4.1.1.1. [ * ] on the annual Net Sales of Licensed Product for the longer of the last to expire of the Licensed Patents or [ * ] from the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product; and

5.4.1.1.2. [ * ] on the annual Net Sales of such Licensed Product for [ * ] following the period set forth in Section 5.4.1.1.1.

5.4.1.2. If the Licensed Product is not covered under Section 5.4.1.1, but the manufacture, sale, use or import of such Licensed Product utilizes Licensed Know-How, the royalty rate shall be [ * ] on the annual Net Sales of such Licensed Product for [ * ] from the First Commercial Sale of such a Licensed Product in an applicable country.

5.4.1.3. [ * ]. The Parties acknowledge that the key Patents relating to the Licensed Products have been published. Accordingly, in the event that: (1) a [ * ] after the First Commercial Sale in a country; and (2) Merck has, prior to [ * ] paid Licensors royalties at the [ * ]; then the remaining provisions of this Section 5.4.1.3 shall apply.

(a) Any Party that becomes aware of the [ * ] shall so notify the other Parties of the [ * ].

(b) For royalty payments due after [ * ], Merck shall pay the [ * ].

(c) Merck shall, within ninety (90) days of such notice, [ * ], as such term is defined herein. The [ * ] on the [ * ]: (1) the [ * ], and (2) the [ * ] prior to the [ * ]; and shall [ * ].

5.4.2. Non-Licensor Products.

5.4.2.1. Merck shall pay the [ * ] that [ * ], provided that the period during which such royalty shall be payable [ * ];

5.4.2.2. If, [ * ] Merck has not [ * ], then [ * ] of such Non-Licensor Product in such country, but not to exceed [ * ].

For the avoidance of doubt, the following [ * ]: (i) if a Non-Licensor Product [ * ], the royalty rate applicable to the Licensed Product under Sections 5.4.1.1 or 5.4.1.2 [ * ]; (ii) if the Non-Licensor Product [ * ], the royalty rate on the Non-Licensor Product [ * ] and [ * ].

5.5. Blended Royalty Rates. With respect to the royalty rates for Products, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Licensed Patents and Licensed Know-How licensed pursuant to this Agreement justify royalty rates of differing amounts with respect to sales of such Products, which rates could be applied separately to Products involving the exercise of such Licensed Patent rights and/or the incorporation or use of such Licensed Know-How, and that if such royalties were calculated separately, royalties relating to Licensed Patents and royalties relating to Licensed Know-How would last for different terms. The Parties have determined, in light of such considerations and for reasons of convenience, that blended royalty rates for the Licensed Patents and the Licensed Know-How licensed hereunder will apply during a single royalty term (which blended royalty rates would be advantageous to both Parties). Consequently, the Parties have agreed to adopt the royalty rates set forth in Section 5.4 hereof.

5.6. Royalty Offset. Subject to the terms of this Section 5.6, if Merck [ * ], any [ * ] payable by Merck or its Affiliates to [ * ] would be [ * ]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall [ * ] of the royalty obligation otherwise payable pursuant to Section 5.4, after the deduction and/or [ * ]. In the event that Licensors [ * ] then upon written notice by Licensors to Merck, the Parties shall pursue a resolution of such disagreement [ * ].

6. PAYMENTS

6.1. Royalty Reports and Payments. Merck shall deliver to Licensors within [ * ] in which Products for which Merck owes a royalty hereunder are sold, a statement providing the information shown on the form of royalty report attached hereto as Exhibit 6. Merck shall make royalty payments to Licensors within [ * ] in which Net Sales have occurred.

6.2. Payments; Interest. Any payments due under this Agreement shall be due on such date as specified in this Agreement and, in the event such date is not a business day, then the next succeeding business day. Any payments or portions thereof due hereunder which are not paid on the date such payments are due under this Agreement shall bear interest at a rate equal to the lesser of the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, on the first day of each Calendar Quarter in which such payments are overdue, plus [ * ] and the maximum rate permitted by law, calculated on

the number of days such payment is delinquent, compounded monthly. Pursuant to the instructions of the Licensors, amounts payable pursuant to Article 5 shall be divided equally between Medarex and UMass and disbursed separately by Merck.

6.3. Taxes. UMass and Medarex shall be liable for all income and other taxes (including interest) (“Taxes”) imposed upon any payments made by Merck to Licensors under this Article 5 (“Agreement Payments”). If applicable laws, rules or regulations require the withholding of Taxes, Merck shall make such withholding payments and shall subtract the amount thereof from the Agreement Payments. Merck shall submit to Licensors appropriate proof of payment of the withheld Taxes as well as the official receipts within a reasonable period of time. Merck shall provide Licensors reasonable assistance in order to allow Licensors to obtain the benefit of any present or future treaty against double taxation which may apply to the Agreement Payments. In the event that Merck wishes to assign this Agreement as a whole, or the payment obligations under this Agreement, to an Affiliate of Merck, and as of the date of such assignment such assignment would require the Merck Affiliate to withhold taxes from payments made under this Agreement to UMass, Merck will notify UMass, and such assignment shall be subject to UMass’s consent.

6.4. Tax-Exempt Status. Merck and Medarex acknowledge that UMass, as a public institution of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, is an exempt organization under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Merck and Medarex also acknowledge that certain facilities in which the licensed inventions were developed may have been financed through offerings of tax-exempt bonds. If the Internal Revenue Service determines, or if counsel to UMass reasonably determines, that any term of this Agreement affects the tax-exempt status of UMass or the bonds used to finance UMass facilities, the relevant term and terms of the Agreement that are affected thereby shall be deemed to be invalid and shall be modified in accordance with Section 13.11.

6.5. Payment Currency. All payments to be made by Merck to Licensors under this Agreement shall be made in United States dollars and may be paid by check made to the order of Licensors or bank wire transfer in immediately available funds to such bank account in the United States as may be designated in writing by Licensors from time to time. In the case of sales outside the United States, the rate of exchange to be used in computing the monthly amount of currency equivalent in United States dollars due Licensors shall be made at the monthly rate of exchange utilized by Merck in its worldwide accounting system, prevailing on the third to the last business day of the month preceding the month in which such sales are recorded by Merck, which Merck rate of exchange shall be derived from an internationally recognized source for currency exchanges such as Bloomberg.com or a similar source.

6.6. Records Retention. Merck shall maintain (and shall ensure that its Affiliates and Sublicensees shall maintain) complete and accurate books, records and accounts that fairly reflect their respective Net Sales with respect to Products in sufficient detail to confirm the accuracy of any payments required hereunder and in accordance with GAAP, which books, records and accounts shall be retained by Merck until the later of (a) three (3) years after the end of the period to which such books, records and

accounts pertain, and (b) the expiration of the applicable tax statute of limitations (or any extensions thereof), or for such longer period as may be required by Applicable Law.

6.7. Audit. Licensors shall have the right to have an independent certified public accounting firm of nationally recognized standing, reasonably acceptable to Merck, to have access during normal business hours, and upon reasonable prior written notice, to such of the records of Merck (and its Affiliates and Sublicensees) as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of royalty reports for Products for any Calendar Year ending not more than [ * ] prior to the date of such request; provided, however, that Licensors shall not have the right to conduct more than one such audit in [ * ]. The accounting firm shall disclose to each Party whether the royalty reports are correct or incorrect and the specific details concerning any discrepancies. No other information shall be provided to Licensors. Licensors shall [ * ]. If, based on the results of such audit, additional payments are owed by Merck under this Agreement, Merck shall make such additional payments, with interest from the date originally due as provided in Article 5, within [ * ] on which such accounting firm’s written report is delivered to Merck. Licensors shall treat all information subject to review under this Section 6.7 in accordance with the confidentiality provisions of Article 7 and shall cause its accounting firm to enter into a reasonably acceptable confidentiality agreement with Merck obligating such firm to maintain all such financial information in confidence pursuant to such confidentiality agreement. In the event that Merck disagrees with the accounting firm’s results hereunder, then upon written notice by Merck to Licensors, the Parties shall [ * ].

7.4. Legal Disclosure. If the receiving Party becomes legally required to disclose any Confidential Information provided by the disclosing Party, the receiving Party will give the disclosing Party prompt notice of such fact so that the disclosing Party may obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy concerning such disclosure and/or waive compliance with the non-disclosure provision of this Agreement. The receiving Party will reasonably cooperate with the disclosing Party in connection with the disclosing Party’s efforts to obtain any such order or other remedy. If any such order or other remedy does not fully preclude disclosure or the disclosing Party waives such compliance, the receiving Party will make such disclosure only to the extent that such disclosure is legally required and will use its reasonable efforts to have confidential treatment accorded to the disclosed Confidential Information.

7.5. Permitted Use and Disclosures. Each Party hereto may use or disclose Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other Party to the extent such use or disclosure is reasonably necessary in complying with applicable governmental regulations or otherwise submitting information to tax or other governmental authorities, conducting preclinical or clinical development, or otherwise exercising its rights hereunder; provided, however, that, if a Party is required to make any such disclosure of another Party’s Confidential Information, other than pursuant to a confidentiality agreement, it will give reasonable advance notice to the latter Party of such disclosure and, save to the extent inappropriate in the case of patent applications, will use its reasonable efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information prior to its disclosure (whether through protective orders or otherwise).

defaulting Party and such defaulting Party is making a good faith effort to cure such default, the notifying Party may not terminate this Agreement, provided however, that the notifying Party may terminate this Agreement if such default is not cured within [ * ] of such original notice of default. The right of either Party to terminate this Agreement as herein above provided shall not be affected in any way by its waiver of, or failure to take action with respect to, any previous default.

Any purported assignment or transfer in violation of this

Section shall be void ab initio and of no force or effect.

13.4.2.

If Merck, whether as acquirer or acquiree, (or its successor as the case may be) notifies Licensors in writing within such [ * ] period that [ * ] then it shall have [ * ].

13.6. Expedited Dispute Resolution. In the event of a dispute between Merck, on the one hand, and Licensors, on the other hand, specifically arising under [ * ] (each, a “Limited Dispute”), then such Limited Dispute shall be resolved pursuant to the terms of this Section 13.6. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to [ * ] the Parties shall resolve such dispute pursuant to the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 13.7.

13.6.1. If the Parties (Merck, on the one hand, and Licensors, on the other hand) are unable to resolve a Limited Dispute through their good faith efforts within twenty (20) days of the first presentation of the Limited Dispute by a Party to the other Party, then such Limited Dispute shall be referred to a senior officer of each of the

Parties (Merck, on the one hand, and Licensors, on the other hand) authorized to resolve such Limited Dispute, which senior officers shall use their good faith efforts to resolve such Limited Dispute.

13.6.2. If any Limited Dispute is not resolved by the senior officers of the Parties pursuant to Section 13.6.1 within fifteen (15) days after such Limited Dispute is referred to them, or such longer period as such officers may mutually agree, then either Party (Merck, on the one hand, and Licensors, on the other hand) shall have the right to refer such Limited Dispute to an Expert for expedited arbitration as set forth in Section 13.6.3.

13.6.3. With respect to Limited Disputes that are not resolved by the senior officers of the Parties (Merck, on the one hand, and Licensors, on the other hand), upon written request by Licensors to Merck or by Merck to Licensors, the Parties shall promptly negotiate in good faith to appoint a mutually acceptable disinterested, conflict-free individual not affiliated with either Party, with [ * ] [ * ] and/or [ * ] necessary to resolve such dispute (an “Expert”). If the Parties are not able to mutually agree upon an Expert within [ * ] after the receipt by a Party of the written request in the immediately preceding sentence, the American Arbitration Association, or such other similar entity as the Parties may agree, shall be responsible for selecting an Expert within [ * ] of being approached by a Party. The fees and costs of the Expert and the American Arbitration Association (or such other entity) shall be shared equally (50%/50%) by the Parties (Merck, on the one hand, and Licensors, on the other hand). Within [ * ] after the designation of the Expert, the Parties shall each simultaneously submit to the Expert and one another a written statement of their respective positions on such Limited Dispute. Each Party shall have [ * ] from receipt of the other Party’s submission to submit a written response thereto, which shall include any scientific, technical, accounting and/or regulatory information, as applicable to the specific Limited Dispute, in support thereof. The Expert shall have the right to meet with the Parties, either alone or together, as necessary to make a determination. No later than [ * ] after the final submission by the Parties to the Expert as set forth above, the Expert shall make a determination by selecting the resolution proposed by one of the Parties that as a whole is the most fair and reasonable to the Parties in light of the totality of the circumstances and shall provide the Parties with a written statement setting forth the basis of the determination in connection therewith. The decision of the Expert shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error.

13.7. Non-Expedited Dispute Resolution.

13.7.1. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith and use reasonable efforts to settle any dispute, controversy or claim arising from or related to this Agreement or the breach thereof. If the Parties do not fully settle, and a Party wishes to pursue the matter, each such dispute, controversy or claim that is not an “Excluded Claim” and that is not otherwise specifically subject to the dispute resolution process set forth in Section 13.6, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Large Complex Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

13.7.2. The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) persons experienced in the biopharmaceutical business and specifically with respect to antibodies: within thirty (30) days after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall select one (1) person to act as arbitrator and the two (2) Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) 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 AAA. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York, and all proceedings and communications shall be in English.

13.7.3. Either Party may apply to the panel of 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 Agreement, 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 compensatory damages. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees and an equal share of the arbitrators’ fees and any administrative fees of arbitration.

13.7.4. Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties (Merck, on the one hand, and Licensor, on the other hand). In no event shall an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable New York statute of limitations.

13.7.5. The Parties agree that, in the event of a dispute over the nature or quality of performance under this Agreement, neither Party may terminate this Agreement until final resolution of the dispute through arbitration or other judicial determination. The Parties further agree that any payments made pursuant to this Agreement pending resolution of the dispute shall be refunded if the panel of arbitrators or court determines that such payments are not due.

13.7.6. As used in this Section, the term “Excluded Claim” shall mean a dispute, controversy or claim that concerns (a) the infringement of a patent, trademark or copyright; or (b) any antitrust, anti-monopoly or competition law or regulation, whether or not statutory.

13.8. Force Majeure. A Party shall not be held liable or responsible to the other Party or be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement when such failure or delay is caused by or results from events beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing Party, including fires, floods, embargoes, shortages, epidemics, quarantines, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), acts of terrorism, insurrections, riots, civil commotion, acts of God, or acts, omissions or delays in acting by any governmental authority. The non-performing Party shall provide reasonable notice to the other Party

after such occurrence by giving written notice to the other Party stating the nature of the event, its anticipated duration, and any action being taken to avoid or minimize its effect. The suspension of performance shall be of no greater scope and no longer duration than is necessary and the non-performing Party shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to remedy its inability to perform; provided, however, that in the event the suspension of performance continues for one-hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of the occurrence, the Parties shall meet to discuss in good faith how to proceed in order to accomplish the goals of this Agreement.

13.9. Advice of Counsel. UMass, Medarex and Merck have each consulted counsel of their choice regarding this Agreement, and each acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement shall not be deemed to have been drafted by one Party or another and will be construed accordingly.

13.10. Further Assurances. At any time or from time to time on and after the Closing Date, either Party shall at the request of the other Party hereto (i) deliver to the requesting Party any records, data or other documents consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) execute, and deliver or cause to be delivered, all such consents, documents or further instruments of transfer or license, and (iii) take or cause to be taken all such actions, as the requesting Party may reasonably deem necessary in order for the requesting Party to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

13.11. Severability. In the event that any provisions of this Agreement are determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without said provision. In such event the Parties shall, in good faith, negotiate a substitute clause for any provision declared invalid or unenforceable, which shall most nearly approximate the intent of the Parties entering this Agreement.

13.12. Waiver. It is agreed that no waiver by either Party hereto of any breach of default of any of the covenants or agreements herein set forth shall be deemed a waiver as to any subsequent and/or similar breach or default.

13.13. Complete Agreement. This Agreement, with its Exhibits, constitutes the entire agreement, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the license of Antibodies and Products from Licensors to Merck, and that all prior agreements respecting the license of Antibodies and Products from Licensors to Merck, either written or oral, expressed or implied, are merged and canceled, and are null and void and of no effect. No amendment or change hereof or addition hereto shall be effective or binding on either of the Parties hereto unless reduced to writing and duly executed on behalf of both Parties.

13.14. Use of Name. No Party shall use the name or trademarks of the other Party, without the prior written consent of such other Party except in connection with the disclosure of the existence of this Agreement.

13.15. English Language. This Agreement has been written and executed in the English language. Any translation into any other language shall not be an official version thereof, and in the event of any conflict in interpretation between the English version and such translation, the English version shall control.

13.16. Headings. The captions to the several Sections and Articles hereof are not a part of this Agreement, but are included merely for convenience of reference only and shall not affect its meaning or interpretation.

13.17. Third Party Beneficiaries. No person, other than Licensors, Merck, their respective Affiliates and their permitted assignees hereunder, shall be deemed an intended beneficiary hereunder or have any right to enforce any obligation of this Agreement.

13.18. Certain Rules of Interpretation. In interpreting this Agreement, the following rules of construction shall apply:

13.18.1. Any reference to “Licensor” or “Licensors” shall mean both UMass and Medarex, collectively;

13.18.2. Any provision which states that MBL shall perform an action also means that UMass shall cause MBL to perform such action;

13.18.3. Any use of the term “including” shall mean “including but not limited to”;

13.18.4. The use of words in the singular or plural, or with a particular gender, shall not limit the scope or exclude the application of any provision of this Agreement to such person or persons or circumstances as the context otherwise permits;

13.18.5. Unless otherwise specified, time periods within or following which any payment is to be made or act is to be done shall be calculated by excluding the day on which the period commences and including the day on which the period ends and by extending the period to the next business day following if the last day of the period is not a business day in the jurisdiction of the Party to make such payment or do such act;

13.18.6. Whenever any payment is to be made or action to be taken under this Agreement is required to be made or taken on a day other than a business day, such payment shall be made or action taken on the next business day following such day in the jurisdiction of the Party to make such payment or do such act.

[The remainder of this page intentionally left blank.]

13.19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and which together shall constitute one instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF Medarex, UMass, MBL, WCCC and Merck have executed this Agreement by their respective duly authorized representatives.
