Sales between the Parties, or between the Parties and their Affiliates or sublicensees, for resale will be disregarded for purposes of calculating Net Sales.  The Parties recognize that (a) Bayer’s customers may include persons in the chain of commerce who enter into agreements with Bayer as to price even though title to the Product does not pass directly from Bayer to such customers and even though payment for such Product is not made by such customers directly to Bayer and (b) in such cases, chargebacks paid by Bayer to or through a third party (such as a wholesaler) can be deducted by Bayer pursuant to subsection (e) above. Any deductions above which involve a payment by Bayer will be taken as a deduction against aggregate sales for the period in which the payment or deduction is made. Any of the items set forth above that would otherwise be deducted from the invoice price in the calculation of Net Sales but which are separately charged to, and paid by, Third Parties will not be deducted from the invoice price in the calculation of Net Sales. In the case of any sale of a Product for consideration other than cash, such as barter or countertrade, Net Sales will be calculated on the fair market value of the consideration received as agreed by the Parties. If any discounts or other similar deductions are granted or allowed in connection with sales of  the Product together with other products of Bayer, its Affiliates or sublicensees, the discounts or deductions will be allocated to Products and such other products on a pro rata basis based on the respective list prices of the Product and such other products.
 
In the event a Product is sold in the form of a combination product containing one or more active ingredients in addition to a Product, Net Sales for such combination product will be adjusted by multiplying actual Net Sales of such combination product by the fraction A / (A+B) where A is the invoice price of the Product, if sold separately, and B is the invoice price of any other active ingredient or ingredients in the combination, if sold separately. If, on a country-by-country basis, the other active ingredient or ingredients in the combination are not sold separately in that country, Net Sales will be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of such combination product by the fraction A / C where A is the invoice price of the Product if sold separately, and C is the invoice price of the combination product. If, on a country-by-country basis, neither the Product nor the other active component or components of the combination product is sold separately in said country, Net Sales will be determined between the Parties in good faith.
 
1.51           “Patents” means (a) all patents and patent applications in any country or supranational jurisdiction, and (b) any provisionals, substitutions, divisions, continuations, continuations in part, reissues, renewals, registrations, confirmations, reexaminations, extensions, supplementary protection certificates and the like, of any such patents or patent applications.

For clarity, the determination of whether a Phase 2 Trial is a Pivotal Trial for purposes of this Agreement will be based upon a determination by the relevant Regulatory Authority that such trial could be sufficient, depending on its outcome, to support the filing of a BLA for such pharmaceutical product or label expansion of such pharmaceutical product.
 
1.56           “Positive D2 Decision” means a D2 Decision to continue a [***].

14.1       Indemnification of Micromet.  Bayer will indemnify Micromet and its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, and employees (each, a “Micromet Indemnitee”), and defend and hold each of them 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 claims, demands, lawsuits, or investigations by a Third Party (each a “Third Party Claim”) against a Micromet Indemnitee, to the extent caused by or arising out of: (a) any breach by Bayer of this Agreement, (b) the negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Bayer or its Affiliates, or contractors in performing any activity contemplated by this Agreement, or (c) the development or Commercialization of the Product in the Territory by Bayer, its Affiliates or licensees; excluding, in each case, indemnification to the extent Micromet has an obligation to indemnify Bayer pursuant to Section 14.2.

*** Certain confidential information contained in this document, marked by brackets, has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
38

 

14.2       Indemnification of Bayer.  Micromet will indemnify Bayer, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, and employees (each, a “Bayer Indemnitee”), and defend and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all Losses arising in connection with any Third Party Claim against a Bayer Indemnitee, to the extent caused by or arising out of: (a) any breach by Micromet of this Agreement, or (b) the negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Micromet or its Affiliates in performing any activity contemplated by this Agreement; (c) the development or Commercialization of the Product in the Territory by Micromet, its Affiliates or licensees; or (d) the development or Commercialization of Micromet Products in the Territory by Micromet, its Affiliates or licensees; in each case, excluding indemnification to the extent Bayer has an obligation to indemnify Micromet and its Affiliates pursuant to Section 14.1. In addition and notwithstanding anything else stated in Section 8.4.1 or 8.4.2, Micromet will indemnify the Bayer Indemnitees and defend and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all Losses arising in connection with any Third Party Claim against a Bayer Indemnitee on the basis of infringement of Third Party intellectual property rights by Micromet (or its Affiliates or contractors) prior to the date of exercise of the Option.
 
14.3       Notice of Claim.  All indemnification claims in respect of any Bayer Indemnitee or Micromet Indemnitee seeking indemnity under Sections 14.1 or 14.2 (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 or discovery of fact upon which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 14.1 or Section 14.2, provided that the failure to give prompt notice will not preclude the Indemnified Party from being identified, but in no event will the Indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice.  Each Indemnification Claim Notice must 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.
 
14.4       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 Sections 14.1 and 14.2 by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice and thereby accepts in a final and binding manner its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party with regard to the respective Third Party Claim. 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 a legal counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party and will have control over the defense of the Third Party Claim. Should the Indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, 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. If the Indemnifying Party, after receipt of a Indemnification Claim Notice, declines to assume the defense or does not confirm its willingness to assume the defense within thirty (30) days from receipt of the Indemnification Claim Notice, the Indemnitee may assume the defense. Assumption of the defense in such case will not preclude the Indemnitee from seeking indemnification from the Indemnifying Party.

14.5       Right to Participate in Defense.  Without limiting Section 14.4, any Indemnitee will be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim 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 and employ counsel in accordance with Section 14.4 (in which case the Indemnified Party will control the defense).
 
14.6       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’s 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 has 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 sole discretion, will deem appropriate, and will transfer to the Indemnified Party all amounts which said Indemnified Party will be liable to pay pursuant to such judgment, settlement or other disposition in a manner that will allow the Indemnified Party to timely pay such amounts as requested by the judgment, settlement or other disposition. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 14.4, 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 sole and absolute discretion).  The Indemnifying Party that has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 14.4 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 14.4.
 
14.7       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 expenses in connection with such cooperation. The Indemnifying Party will reasonably cooperate and consult with the Indemnitee in the defense of the Third Party Claim and will give the Indemnitee the possibility to comment on any filings or writings received from the Third Party or submitted to the Third Party, its attorneys or any courts in connection with the defense of the Third Party Claim.

Any amounts received on account of transfers of Licensed Products between Licensee, its Affiliates or sublicensees of Licensed Products hereunder will be excluded from the calculation of Net Sales, and Net Sales will be calculated based on the final sale of such Licensed Product by Licensee, its Affiliates or sublicensees to any Third Party.
 
In the event a Licensed Product is sold in the form of a Combination Product, Net Sales for purposes of royalty payments on the Combination Product will be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by the fraction A/(A+B), where A is the invoice price of the Licensed Product if sold separately (i.e., without the other active ingredients or components) by Licensee, its Affiliate or sublicensee; and B is the aggregate invoice price of the other active ingredients or components in the Combination Product, if sold separately by Licensee, its Affiliate or sublicensee.  In the event that no such separate sales are made by Licensee, its Affiliate or sublicensee, then Net Sales for purposes of royalty payments on the Combination Product will be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by the fraction C/(C+D) where C is the fully allocated cost of the Licensed Product taken separately from the Combination Product (i.e., not including the other active ingredients or components); and D is the aggregate fully allocated cost of the other active ingredients or components; in each case, such costs being determined using generally accepted accounting procedures consistently applied by Licensee, its Affiliate or sublicensee, as applicable.
