The Parties, through their Report Coordinators, have agreed in writing on formal procedures for such exchange, which are embodied in the Pharmacovigilance Agreement executed by the Parties immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date (“Pharmacovigilance Agreement”), which replaced and superseded the Procedure for the Exchange of Licensed Product Adverse Event Reports between the Parties dated December 2000. The Pharmacovigilance Agreement (and any subsequent amendments thereto) shall survive the end of the Co-Promotion Term.

(b) Roche and PDL agree that discussions between Roche, PDL and any of PDL’s Third Party co-developers of Licensed Product would be desirable for confirming an aligned strategy with respect to pharmacovigilance obligations. Discussions with any of PDL’s Third Party co-developers of Licensed Product will be initiated through the JSC.

5.4 Copies of Responses. Within a reasonable time frame prior to submission of responses to any regulatory authority on product safety issues regarding Licensed Products, a copy of a near final draft response will be provided to the other Party for review. Final copies of responses submitted to any regulatory authority will be provided to the other Party within [****] of document finalization.

 

  55.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


5.5 Regulatory Actions. The Party responsible for interacting with regulators on a specific safety issue regarding Licensed Products must communicate any action requested by regulators to the other Party without delay. Such actions may include, for example, change in label, Dear Doctor letter, trial on hold for clinical safety reasons and the like.

COMMERCIALIZATION IN U.S. TERRITORY

6.1 Commercialization Plans.

(a) During the Asthma Co-Promotion Term, all commercialization of Licensed Products in the Asthma Field in the U.S. Territory shall be conducted pursuant to a commercialization plan (the “Asthma Commercialization Plan”), which shall set forth the anticipated activities (including without limitation Medical Activities, market studies, launch plans, Detailing and Promotion in the Asthma Field) and timelines, shall allocate responsibility for carrying out such activities between PDL and Roche, and shall include an associated budget. No later than [****] after [****] for a Licensed Product in the Asthma Field, and on an annual basis thereafter until the end of the Asthma Co-Promotion Term, PDL (or, at the Asthma JDC’s election, a subcommittee established by the Asthma JDC) shall submit to the Asthma JDC an initial or updated Asthma Commercialization Plan, which the Asthma JDC and JSC shall review and the JSC

(after consulting with the Asthma JDC) shall approve or reject on a timely basis. It is understood that the initial Asthma Commercialization Plan may be very preliminary but nevertheless shall be effective for the purposes of commencing the Party’s sharing of Operating Expenses in the Asthma Field. Each updated Asthma Commercialization Plan shall include the plan for Detailing and Promotion activities for the Licensed Product in the Asthma Field in the U.S. Territory for the next [****] and timelines for performing such activities. Once approved by the JSC, such updated Asthma Commercialization Plan shall become effective and supersede the previous Asthma Commercialization Plan as of the date of such approval or at such other time decided by the JSC. The JSC shall not approve an updated Asthma Commercialization Plan that is inconsistent with or contradicts the terms of this Agreement without the written consent of the Parties, and in the event of any inconsistency between the Asthma Commercialization Plan and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

(b) During the Transplant Co-Promotion Term, all commercialization of Licensed Products in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory shall be conducted pursuant to a commercialization plan (the “Transplant Commercialization Plan”), which shall set forth the anticipated activities (including without limitation Medical Activities, market studies, launch plans, Detailing and Promotion in the Transplant Field) and timelines, shall allocate responsibility for carrying out such activities between PDL and Roche, and shall include an associated budget. No later than [****] after [****] for a Licensed Product in the Transplant Field, and on an annual basis thereafter until the end of the Transplant Co-Promotion Term (or Regulatory Approval of Licensed Product in the U.S. Territory in the Asthma Field, if earlier and if there is no Transplant Trademark), the Party responsible for booking sales of Licensed Product in the U.S. Territory in the Transplant Field shall submit to the Transplant JCC an initial or updated Transplant Commercialization Plan, which the Transplant JCC and JSC shall review and the JSC (after consulting with the Transplant JCC) shall approve or reject on a

timely basis. It is understood that the initial Transplant Commercialization Plan may be very preliminary but nevertheless shall be effective for the purposes of commencing the Party’s sharing of Operating Expenses in the Transplant Field. Each updated Transplant Commercialization Plan shall include a plan for Detailing and Promotion activities for the Licensed Product in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory for the next [****] and timelines for performing such activities. Once approved by the JSC, such updated Transplant Commercialization Plan shall become effective and supersede the previous Transplant Commercialization Plan as of the date of such approval or at such other time decided by the JSC. The JSC shall not approve an updated Transplant Commercialization Plan that is inconsistent with or contradicts the terms of this Agreement, including but not limited to Section 6.2(c) herein, without the written consent of the Parties, and in the event of any inconsistency between the Transplant Commercialization Plan and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. If Roche is the party responsible for the booking of sales of Licensed Product in the U.S. Territory in the Transplant Field, then the Transplant Commercialization Plan that covers the last year of the Transplant Co-Promotion Term (or the year in which Regulatory Approval of Licensed Product in the U.S. Territory in the Asthma Field is expected, if such approval is expected prior to the end of the Transplant Co-Promotion Term and if there is no Transplant Trademark) shall include provisions addressing the manner in which responsibility for booking sales and other Licensed Product commercialization-related activities shall be transferred from Roche to PDL at the end of the Transplant Co-Promotion Term or upon Regulatory Approval in the U.S. Territory in the Asthma Field, as applicable.

6.2 Commercialization in the U.S. Territory; Co-Promotion.

(a) PDL will be solely responsible for the booking of sales of Licensed Products in the Asthma Field in the U.S. Territory and the supply and distribution of

  58.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


Licensed Product in respect to such sales. If there is both a Transplant Branded Product and a Transplant Trademark, then (i) Roche will be solely responsible for the booking of sales of Licensed Products in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory during the Transplant Co-Promotion Term and for the distribution of Licensed Product in respect to such sales, (ii) PDL will be solely responsible for the booking of sales of Licensed Products in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory after the end of the Transplant Co-Promotion Term and for the distribution of Licensed Product in respect to such sales, and (iii) PDL will be solely responsible for the supply of Licensed Product in respect to all such sales (whether booked by Roche or PDL). Subject to this Section 6.2(a), if there is a Transplant Branded Product but no Transplant Trademark, then (1) Roche will be solely responsible for the booking of sales of Licensed Products in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory and for the distribution of Licensed Product in respect to such sales until the earlier of (A) the end of the Transplant Co-Promotion Term or (B) Regulatory Approval in the U.S. Territory in the Asthma Field, (2) PDL will be solely responsible for the booking of sales of Licensed Products in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory and for the distribution of Licensed Product in respect to such sales after the earlier of (A) the end of the Transplant Co-Promotion Term or (B) Regulatory Approval in the U.S. Territory in the Asthma Field, and (3) PDL will be solely responsible for the supply of Licensed Product in respect to all such sales (whether booked by Roche or PDL). If there is a Transplant Branded Product but no Transplant Trademark and it is possible that Regulatory Approval in the U.S. Territory in the Asthma Field might be received within [****] of the First Commercial Sale in the U.S. Territory in the Transplant Field, then the Parties shall discuss in good faith whether Roche should book sales of the Transplant Branded Product during the time prior to Regulatory Approval in the U.S. Territory in the Asthma Field or if PDL should book such sales, and if the Parties agree that PDL should book sales, then the terms of this Agreement that are directed to circumstances in which there is no Transplant Branded

Product should nevertheless apply. If there is no Transplant Branded Product, then PDL will be solely responsible for the booking of sales of Licensed Products in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory and the supply and distribution of Licensed Product in respect to such sales. The Party responsible for booking sales shall determine the U.S. Territory selling price (including volume discounts, rebates, and similar matters), credit terms, and return policies for all formulations of Licensed Products that are sold for use in a Collaborative Field by such Party.

(b) Detailing in the Asthma Field. During the Asthma Co-Promotion Term, PDL and Roche will co-promote Licensed Products in the Asthma Field in the U.S. Territory in accordance with the Asthma Commercialization Plan. As part of this co-promotion, PDL shall contribute [****] of the Details required by the Asthma Commercialization Plan (measured as an average across each calendar quarter), and Roche shall be responsible for the remaining [****] of such Details. Each Party’s sales force shall promote the Licensed Product in the Asthma Field in the U.S. Territory in a manner that reflects such Party’s capacities and that is consistent with such Party’s promotional efforts for its own products of similar market potential. During the Asthma Co-Promotion Term, Roche and PDL agree to deploy their respective sales forces to Detail Licensed Product in the Asthma Field in the U.S. Territory (i) at such level of effort as is required pursuant to this Section 6.2(b) and (ii) in a manner consistent with the Asthma Commercialization Plan and applicable law. The Parties shall agree upon a sales calling plan, which plan shall include mechanisms to address possible underperformance and failure to perform Detailing in the Asthma Field at the agreed upon levels.

(c) Detailing in the Transplant Field. No later than [****] prior to the anticipated filing of a Drug Approval Application in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory, the Transplant JCC shall recommend and the JSC shall approve terms and

conditions under which the Parties will Detail Licensed Product in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory. Such terms and conditions shall include that: (i) only one representative from either Party may Detail to any given transplant center to prevent redundancy of field activity; (ii) Roche shall be the Party to Detail Licensed Product to any Target Audience that is a predominantly solid organ transplant center that Roche targets for detailing with respect to Roche’s other products for use in solid organ transplant patients; and (iii) PDL shall have an option to Detail Licensed Product to any Target Audience other than a predominantly solid organ transplant center that Roche targets for detailing with respect to Roche’s other products for use in solid organ transplant patients. Each Party shall be responsible for the actions of its own field force in the Transplant Field. To the extent Roche’s Detailing obligations under this Section 6.2(c) exceed the Detailing obligations of PDL, PDL shall be responsible for [****] of the Sales Force Expenses of Roche that are attributable to Roche’s excess Detailing obligations. For example, if Roche is responsible for eighty percent (80%) of the Detailing in the Transplant Field and PDL is responsible for twenty percent (20%) of such Detailing, then PDL shall reimburse Roche for [****] of Roche’s Sales Force Expenses attributable to the extra sixty percent (60%) Detailing performed by Roche in the Transplant Field. The Transplant Commercialization Plan shall specify each Party’s relative percentage of Detailing obligations in the Transplant Field and the following principles shall be considered when making such determination: (1) only representatives that Detail to transplant centers shall be considered (i.e. Detailing to community nephrologists will not be considered); (2) PDL will not be credited for more than [****] of the total Detailing by both Parties in the Transplant Field; and (3) the number of calls shall not be the sole criterion used to measure responsibility, but other factors, such as the effectiveness of the sales force, shall be considered. If only one Party Details Licensed Product in the Transplant Field (“Promoting Party”), then the other Party (“Non-Promoting Party”) shall be responsible for [****] of all Sales Force

  61.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


Expenses of the Promoting Party in the Transplant Field. For example, if the Promoting Party’s cost per representative (fully burdened) is $250,000, and the representative carries the Licensed Product and another product for which the Promoting Party equally allocates cost per representative, then the Non-Promoting Party shall be responsible for [****] of the Promoting Party’s Sales Force Expenses in the Transplant Field that are allocated to the Licensed Product. The Promoting Party shall be responsible for the other [****] of such Sales Force Expenses.

(d) Each Party agrees to permit its Detailing records to be examined by the other Party for the purpose of verifying each Parties’ compliance with the Detailing requirements set forth in this Section 6.2. Such audit shall be performed at the request of either Party, but in any event shall not be performed more frequently than [****] per [****] nor more frequently than [****] with respect to Detailing records covering any specific period of time. The expense of any such examination shall be borne by the auditing Party unless such examination reveals a discrepancy of [****] or more in favor of the audited Party, in which case such expense shall be borne by the audited Party.

(e) Following the end of the Asthma Co-Promotion Term, PDL shall have sole responsibility and decision-making authority for the Detailing, marketing, Promotion, Medical Activities, sale and distribution of Licensed Product in the Asthma Field in the U.S. Territory. Except as explicitly provided in Section 10.2(a), PDL shall owe Roche no consideration in respect to sales of Licensed Product in the Asthma Field in the U.S. Territory after the end of the Asthma Co-Promotion Term.

(f) Following the end of the Transplant Co-Promotion Term, PDL shall have sole responsibility and decision-making authority for the Detailing, marketing, Promotion, Medical Activities, sale and distribution of Licensed Product in the Transplant Field in the U.S. Territory.

6.3 Sharing of Operating Expenses; Sales Force Expenses

(a) During the Asthma Co-Promotion Term, all Operating Expenses in the Asthma Field shall be shared [****]. [****] will be solely responsible for [****] Sales Force Expenses in the Asthma Field, unless the sales calling plan specifies otherwise due to a Party’s failure to deploy sufficient numbers of sales representatives to meet the number of Details required of such Party under Section 6.2(b).

(b) During the Transplant Co-Promotion Term, all Operating Expenses in the Transplant Field shall be shared [****] and all Sales Force Expenses in the Transplant Field shall be allocated between the Parties as specified in Section 6.2(c). Neither the Sales Force Expenses of a Party in the Transplant Field, nor the amounts paid by a Party to reimburse the other Party for its Sales Force Expenses in the Transplant Field, shall be included in such Party’s Operating Expenses.

(c) During the Asthma Co-Promotion Term and the Transplant Co-Promotion Term, each Party shall keep detailed records of the Operating Expenses it incurs and the Sales Force Expenses it incurs in the Transplant Field, including all supporting documentation for such expenses, in accordance with procedures to be agreed upon between the Parties. Each Party shall keep such records for at [****] after the date that such expense was incurred. Within [****] after the end of each calendar quarter during the Asthma Co-Promotion Term, each Party shall provide to the JFC representatives of the other Party an accounting for its Operating Expenses in the Asthma Field for such quarter. Within [****] after the end of such quarter, each Party shall also provide a report to the Asthma JDC (with a copy to the other Party) specifying

set forth in this Article 7, Roche shall have sole responsibility and decision-making authority for the marketing, promotion, medical activities, sale and distribution of the Licensed Product in the Collaborative Fields in the ROW Territory (collectively, the “ROW Commercialization Activities”), including post-registration clinical and marketing studies that are not conducted in order to obtain, expand (as mutually agreed with PDL) and/or maintain Regulatory Approval of a Licensed Product in the Collaborative Fields in the U.S. Territory or European Union. Roche shall be responsible for all costs and expenses associated with the ROW Commercialization Activities. Roche’s sales force shall promote the Licensed Product in the ROW Territory in a manner that reflects Roche’s capacities and that is consistent with Roche’s promotional efforts for its own products of similar market potential.

7.2 Roche Diligence in ROW Territory.

(a) At least [****] prior to the first expected launch date in the ROW Territory of the Licensed Product in each Collaborative Field, Roche will provide PDL with its draft plan for Roche’s, its Affiliates’ and sublicensees’ commercialization of the Licensed Products in such Collaborative Field in the ROW Territory.

7.3 Negative Covenant. Roche hereby covenants that it shall not, nor shall it cause any Affiliate or sublicensee to, [****] Licensed Products in the ROW Territory [****], except as expressly permitted by any other written agreement between the Parties which is currently in existence (including, without limitation, the Worldwide Daclizumab Agreement), or which may later be entered into by the Parties. PDL acknowledges and understands that Roche cannot control [****] and that the purpose of the foregoing covenant is to prevent [****].

7.4 [****]. Subject to Section 13.1, Roche and PDL shall cooperate fully under [****] to [****] and [****] for the U.S. Territory and the ROW Territory in order to optimize global penetration of the Licensed Product in the Collaborative Fields.

7.5 [****]. In order to most effectively establish a [****] for the Licensed Product with the benefit of the Parties’ experience in the areas of [****], the Parties may participate in discussions regarding the [****] the Licensed Product within and outside the Collaborative Fields to the extent [****].

7.6 Tracking of Sales in the Territory. The Parties recognize that PDL has the right to market Licensed Products for indications outside the Collaborative Fields. As a result, Licensed Products marketed by PDL or its collaborators in the future for indications outside the Collaborative Fields may nonetheless be sold in the Collaborative Fields, and Licensed Products marketed by PDL and/or Roche in the future for indications in the Collaborative Fields may nonetheless be sold outside the Collaborative Fields (collectively, “Cross-Field Sales”). In order to detect and account for these Cross-Field Sales of Licensed Products, the Parties agree as follows:

(a) If at any time during the term of this Agreement, PDL, its Affiliate, or licensee is marketing a Licensed Product for an indication outside the Collaborative Fields that is approved by the relevant regulatory authority in such territory (a “Non-

Collaborative Field Product”) and PDL or Roche is at the same time in the same territory marketing a Licensed Product for an indication in the Collaborative Fields that is approved by the relevant regulatory authority in such territory (an “Collaborative Field Product”), and a Party believes that (i) sales of a Non-Collaborative Field Product are occurring or will occur for use in the Collaborative Fields; or (ii) sales of the Collaborative Field Product are occurring or will occur for use outside the Collaborative Fields, then such Party may provide notice to the other Party of its desire to track sales of Licensed Product for the relevant indications in such territory.

(b) Upon receipt of notice under Section 7.6(a), PDL and Roche shall meet and agree upon a method of tracking sales of each such product for use in its respective indications (a “Sales Tracking Methodology”) including (i) the acquisition of one or more [****] (including, by way of example, [****] [****]) or other [****] (including, for example, [****]) generally recognized in the pharmaceutical industry as having [****] in the tracking of sales of pharmaceutical products that have a similar nature as and are prescribed by similar physicians as the Collaborative Field Product and the Non-Collaborative Field Product in the U.S. Territory and, if applicable, outside the U.S. Territory (the “Data Services”), and (ii) the methodology for applying any [****] to determine the extent of Cross-Field Sales in the relevant territory. At the request of either Party, any meeting held under this Section 7.6(b) shall [****] in the relevant territory, provided any such [****] is or agrees to be bound by confidentiality provisions similar to those contained in this Agreement.

(c) In the event that PDL, Roche, and [****] (as applicable) are unable to agree on a Sales Tracking Methodology pursuant to Section 7.6(b), then the following default methodologies shall apply:

(i) With respect to each Major Regulatory Jurisdiction [****] in which a Collaborative Field Product and a Non-Collaborative Field Product have received Regulatory Approval and in which [****]), sales in the Collaborative Fields in such country and sales outside the Collaborative Fields in such country shall be calculated for each Collaborative Field Product and each Non-Collaborative Field Product [****].

(iii) For IMP ordered after [****] from [****], or in aggregate quantities of additional IMP exceeding [****] from [****], the Parties shall negotiate a price in good faith, as such material may or may not require [****].

(iv) The Phase III [****] Price for Asthma shall be included as a Development Expense in [****] (i.e., [****]) in the [****] calendar quarters beginning with [****] after Roche decides to proceed with phase III development in the Asthma Field (i.e., such decision is currently identified as the Roche “Full Development Decision Point [FDDP]” determination as approved by the “Life Cycle Committee [LCC]”). Roche shall promptly inform PDL of its decision whether or not to proceed with phase III development.

(v) If the API output from the production campaign for the initial IMP that is contemplated in Section 8.1(b)(iv) exceeds the needs of the Asthma Development Plan as it existed on the Effective Date, the excess material will be used to supply any additional needs of the then current Asthma Development Plan or needs of the then current Transplant Development Plan at no additional cost except for any incremental costs associated with fill/finish or other clinical manufacturing activities beyond those planned in the Asthma Development Plan as it existed on the Effective Date.

(vi) The cost of additional material needed beyond the API output from the production campaign for the initial IMP that is contemplated in Section 8.1(b)(iv) (whether for use in clinical trials in the Asthma Field or the Transplant Field) shall be the applicable Target Price described in Section 8.3 or 8.4 (with respect the same quantities for commercial supply). If any such additional material is ordered in time to be manufactured as part of the production campaign for the initial IMP that is

The applicable Target Price for subsequent orders for additional material supplied will be based on [****].

(c) With respect to API, IMP, or placebo supplied by PDL to Roche pursuant to this Section 8.1 for use in any Development activities not required to obtain Regulatory Approval in the U.S. Territory or the European Union, Roche shall pay PDL, within the later of [****] of acceptance of the shipment or [****] of receipt of the applicable invoice, a transfer price equal to (i) [****] as the case may be, minus (ii) [****] for the production of such material. Such amount shall be deemed an Incremental Development Expense.

8.2 Commercial Supply. Roche and PDL shall negotiate in good faith a definitive commercial supply agreement (“Commercial Supply Agreement”) that will govern the exact terms and conditions of the commercial supply of API or other finished form of Licensed Product by PDL to Roche for sale in the ROW Territory for use in the Collaborative Fields and, if there is a Transplant Branded Product, for sale in the U.S. Territory during the Transplant Co-Promotion Term for use in the Transplant Field for so long as there is a Branded Transplant Product. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Commercial Supply Agreement will address Roche’s remedies in the event that PDL is unable to supply or have supplied API or other finished form of Licensed Product in quantities desired by Roche (“Failure to Supply”). All such remedies set forth in the Commercial Supply Agreement shall be Roche’s sole remedies with respect to a Failure to Supply. The Parties shall propose a more detailed timeframe for finalizing the Commercial Supply Agreement to the JSC. In any event, the Parties agree to initiate the negotiation of the Commercial Supply Agreement at the latest upon the enrollment of the last patient in the phase IIb dose ranging study and conclude the negotiation

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the terms and conditions for commercial supply of Licensed Product with respect to the Asthma Field and the terms and conditions for commercial supply of Licensed Product with respect to the Transplant Field may be addressed in a single Commercial Supply Agreement or may alternatively be addressed in separate agreements. The Parties shall negotiate and enter into a quality agreement at the same time as the Commercial Supply Agreement. If a second Commercial Supply Agreement is entered into, the Parties shall decide whether the existing quality agreement is sufficient to address both Commercial Supply Agreements and, if it is not, whether to amend such quality agreement or enter into a separate quality agreement.

8.3 Transfer Price for Commercial Supply of API.

(a) If Roche desires to perform the fill/finish step of the manufacturing process of Licensed Product for sale in the Collaborative Fields in the ROW Territory or for sale in the U.S. Territory during the Transplant Co-Promotion Term for use in the Transplant Field (provided and for so long as there is a Transplant Branded Product), it shall notify PDL of its desire and commitment based on capacity, quality, compliance, cost, capability and the strategic needs of the Parties. The Parties shall discuss and agree upon the amounts which Roche would [****] for the fill/finish step under different reasonably contemplated supply requirements if Roche were to perform such fill/finish (the “Roche Fill/Finish Cost”). If [****] provides a corresponding fill/finish cost that is [****], based on the same assumptions with respect to the calculations of such cost, then [****] shall perform such fill/finish step and the Parties shall agree upon the appropriate commitment for continued fill/finish by [****] (including the frequency and lead times with which [****]) with a view to ensuring uninterrupted supply of Licensed Product in the ROW Territory and in the U.S. Territory for use in the Transplant Field during the Transplant Co-Promotion Term with respect to a Transplant Branded Product.

13.7 Infringement of Trademarks.

(a) Procedure. In the event that either Party becomes aware of (i) actual infringement of a PDL Trademark in the ROW Territory; (ii) a mark or name confusingly similar to a PDL Trademark in the ROW Territory; or (iii) any unfair trade practices, trade dress imitation, passing off, or like offenses, in the ROW Territory that relate to the PDL Trademarks, such Party shall promptly so notify the other Party in

[****] shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its [****], to initiate, prosecute, and control an infringement action or file any other appropriate action or claim related to such infringement of the PDL Trademark against any Third Party.

The Party controlling such action shall take all reasonable and appropriate steps to protect, defend, and maintain the PDL Trademarks for use by the Parties and shall have the right to control settlement of such action; provided, however, that no settlement shall be entered into without the written consent of the other Party, not to be unreasonably withheld.

(b) Costs. Any damages or monetary award recovered shall be applied first to reimburse the reasonable costs and expenses of the Party bringing such action in connection with such litigation, with the balance being allocated to the Parties [****].

If the JSC and Executive Officers did not reach consensus regarding the selection of a trademark for use on the Licensed Product and [****] selected such trademark pursuant to Section 3.5(b), then [****] shall defend such claim and any resulting suit at its expense and shall indemnify [****] and its Affiliates against any resulting final judgments and settlements, provided that [****] shall not settle any claim or suit in a manner that would adversely affect [****] without obtaining [****] prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

16.1 Indemnification by PDL. Unless otherwise provided herein, PDL agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Roche and its directors, officers, employees and agents (the “Roche Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Third Party suits, claims, actions, demands, liabilities, expenses and/or losses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees, court costs, witness fees, damages, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) (“Losses”) to the extent that such Losses arise out of (a) a breach of a representation or warranty or covenant by PDL under Article 14 or (b) the distribution, manufacture, use, testing, promotion, marketing or sale of a Licensed Product by or on behalf of PDL, its Affiliates or sublicensees (except for Roche), but only to the extent the Losses described in “(b)” result from (i) any violation of applicable law by PDL with respect to co-promotion activity in a Collaborative Field in the U.S. Territory under Article 6, (ii) the failure of Licensed Products manufactured by PDL to conform to cGMP or the written specifications for such products or (iii) the negligence or misconduct or failure to act of PDL, its agents or sublicensees in connection with PDL’s obligations under this Agreement. The indemnification obligation set forth in (b) above with respect to the manufacture of Licensed Product shall be automatically superseded by the execution of a Commercial Supply Agreement; after such execution Roche shall be entitled only to such manufacturing-related indemnification from PDL as may be specified in such Commercial Supply Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PDL shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Roche Indemnitees with respect to any Losses arising out of the negligence or misconduct or failure to act of Roche, its Affiliates, or sublicensees (except for PDL).

 

  117.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


16.2 Indemnification by Roche. Unless otherwise provided herein, Roche shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend PDL and its directors, officers, employees and agents (the “PDL Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses, to the extent that such Losses arise out of (a) a breach of a representation or warranty or covenant by Roche under Article 14 or (b) the distribution, use, testing, promotion, marketing, or sale of a Licensed Product by or on behalf of Roche, its Affiliates or sublicensees (except for PDL), but only to the extent that the Losses described in “(b)” result from (i) any violation of applicable law by Roche with respect to co-promotion activity in a Collaborative Field in the U.S. Territory under Article 6, (ii) any ROW Commercialization Activities, or (iii) the negligence or misconduct or failure to act of Roche, its agents or sublicensees in connection with Roche’s obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Roche shall not have any obligation to indemnify the PDL Indemnitees with respect to any Losses arising out of the negligence or misconduct or failure to act of PDL, its Affiliates, or sublicensees (except for Roche).

16.3 Procedure. In the event of a claim by a Third Party against a Party entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (“Indemnified Party”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the other Party (“Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the claim and the Indemnifying Party shall undertake and solely manage and control, at its sole expense, the defense of the claim and its settlement. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party, including, as requested by the Indemnifying Party entering into a joint defense agreement. The Indemnified Party may, at its option and expense, be represented in any such action or proceeding by counsel of its choice. 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 Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such claim unless such settlement fully and unconditionally releases the Indemnified Party from all liability relating thereto, unless the Indemnified Party otherwise agrees in writing.

16.6 Relationship to Worldwide Daclizumab Agreement. Solely to the extent that either Party has a Loss recoverable under this Article 16, the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Article 16 shall supersede any rights or obligations of the Parties granted under Section 17.6 of the Worldwide Daclizumab Agreement.

ARTICLE 17

the date on which neither Party has nor will have any additional payment obligations to the other Party under this Agreement. Upon expiration of the Agreement, provided that there has been [****] in at least [****], Roche shall have a fully paid-up license with respect to the licenses granted under Section 2.1(b) [****]. Upon expiration of the Agreement, provided that there has been a [****] in at least [****], Roche shall have a fully paid-up license with respect to the licenses granted under Section 2.1(b) ([****]).

17.2 Termination for Breach.

(a) A Party (“non-breaching Party”) shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies, to terminate this Agreement in the event the other Party (“breaching Party”) is in breach of any of its material obligations under this Agreement, provided that any such termination shall only be effective with respect to the particular Region(s) and the particular Collaborative Field to which such breach amounted to a material breach, except that (i) [****], and (ii) [****], each of which shall be subject to the terms of Section 17.2(e). The non-breaching Party shall provide written notice to the breaching Party, which notice shall identify the breach and the Region(s) and the Collaborative Field with respect to which the non-breaching Party intends to have this Agreement terminate. With respect to breaches of any payment provision hereunder, the breaching Party shall have a period of [****] after such written notice is provided to cure such breach; provided, however, if there is a dispute as to whether a development event or commercialization event referenced in Section 9.2, 9.3 or 10.6, respectively, has occurred (thereby triggering a payment obligation under such sections), Roche shall not be obliged to make such payment until such dispute is resolved in accordance with Article 18. With respect to all other breaches, the breaching Party shall have a period of [****] after such written notice is provided to cure such breach. If such breach is not cured within the applicable period set forth above, this Agreement shall terminate immediately with respect to the applicable Region and

The waiver by either Party of any breach of any term or condition of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver as to any subsequent or similar breach. Termination for a breach occurring in one or more Regions in the ROW Territory shall not affect any rights or obligation hereunder relating to the U.S. Territory, and vice versa, except as otherwise provided above. Termination for a breach occurring with respect to the Asthma Field shall not affect any rights or obligation hereunder relating to the Transplant Field, and vice versa.

(b) For clarity and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any breach of a material obligation relating to co-promotion of Licensed Product under this Agreement in a particular Collaborative Field shall be treated as a breach with respect to the U.S. Territory and may therefore give rise to a right, pursuant to Section 17.2(a), to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Collaborative Field solely as to the U.S. Territory.

(c) Consequences of Termination for Roche’s Breach.

(i) If Roche breaches the Agreement with respect to a Region in the ROW Territory and with respect to a Collaborative Field, and PDL terminates the Agreement, pursuant to the procedure outlined in Section 17.2(a), with respect to such Region and such Collaborative Field, then the following shall apply:

MISCELLANEOUS

19.1 Assignment. Either Party may assign this Agreement and the licenses herein granted (a) to any Affiliate of such Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, provided that such Party remains fully liable for the performance of such Party’s obligations hereunder by such Affiliate, or (b) without the prior written consent of the other Party, to any Third Party purchaser of all or substantially all of the business unit to which this Agreement relates, which in the case of PDL, shall mean PDL’s therapeutic antibody business, and in the case of Roche, shall mean Roche’s therapeutic antibody business.

regulation, or any other cause beyond such Party’s control, such Party shall not be liable to the other therefor; and the time for performance of such obligation shall be extended for a period equal to the duration of the force majeure which occasioned the delay, interruption or prevention. The Party invoking such force majeure rights of this Section 19.2 must notify the other Party by courier or overnight dispatch (e.g., Federal Express) within a period of fifteen (15) days of both the first and last day of the force majeure unless the force majeure renders such notification impossible in which case notification will be made as soon as possible.

FINANCIAL APPENDIX

This Financial Appendix is a supplement to the definitions and procedures provided in Articles 1 and 11 and Sections 4.6 and 6.3 of this Agreement. References to Articles and Sections are references to the articles and sections of the Agreement. This Appendix sets forth the principles for capturing, reporting and consolidating Operating Expenses, Development Expenses, royalties and gross margin profit sharing. Further, it describes the accounting (i.e. the frequency of reporting, currency, taxes, methods of determining payments between the Parties, auditing of accounts, etc.) and the definitions of Sales Force Expenses, Development Expenses and Operating Expenses.

REPORTING AND CONSOLIDATION

During the applicable period in which such revised budgets are required under the Agreement, preparation of revised annual budgets associated with the Development Plan or the Commercialization Plan (as the case may be) will be initiated in each [****] during such period and a preliminary budget should be presented for review by the JSC before end of each [****] during such period. The completed annual budget should be endorsed by the JSC between the Parties by the end of each [****] during such period. Reporting by each Party will be performed as follows (with copies provided to the JSC and to the other Party):

The JFC may change the reporting timelines according to the needs of the alliance. The JFC should also evaluate the possibility to have a common system to consolidate joint development expenses & marketing activities (e.g. co-development system).

Responsibility for approving the annual budgets associated with the Development Plan and the Commercialization Plan will rest with the JSC.

The JFC shall be responsible for the preparation of consolidated reporting (actuals, budgets and forecasts) for the Operating Expenses and Development Expenses as well as determination of the cash settlement. The JFC shall provide the JSC (and the Party not preparing the consolidated reporting on behalf of the JFC) within forty-five working days after the submission date shown above, a statement showing the consolidated results, forecasts and cash settlements required in a format agreed to by the Parties.

The JFC will be responsible for monitoring and agreeing upon appropriate controls to ensure reasonable and consistent calculation and allocation of Sales Force Expenses, Operating Expenses and Development Expenses under the Agreement. More specifically, the JFC shall review the projected versus actual FTE’s per quarter and the process by which Third Parties are retained to provide services in the

The Parties shall also use commercially reasonable efforts to provide access to available discounts and discount programs available from existing vendors for the benefit of the Parties under the Agreement.

Reports of actual results compared to budget will be made by the JFC. The Parties will work together to keep actual spending within the approved budget. The Parties shall discuss in good faith the adoption of additional control measures to address deviations from the approved budget on an aggregate annual basis above [****]. In any event, if a Party contemplates that an expenditure will increase the annual budget in excess of [****], the Parties shall review the expenditure with the JFC prior to commitment to that expenditure. The JFC will meet as appropriate to review and approve the reporting events (actuals, accruals, budgets and forecasts).

Each Party will use its applicable project cost system with the goal of tracking and reporting costs on a project/product indication/work package basis consistent with its other projects/products in development.

ACCOUNTING

1. Audits. Each Party (the “Audited Party”) agrees to keep full, clear and accurate records for a period of at least [****] after the relevant report is made pursuant to Section 4.6(c), 6.3(c) or 11 setting forth its Development Expenses, Operating Expenses, Sales Force Expenses or Net Sales, as applicable, incurred in sufficient detail to enable royalties and compensation payable to the other Party (the “Auditing Party”) hereunder to be determined. Each Audited Party further agrees to permit its books and records to be examined by an independent accounting firm selected by the Auditing Party to verify reports made pursuant to Section 4.6(c) or 6.3(c), as applicable. Unless the Auditing Party obtains the prior written consent of the Audited Party, such

  A-3.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


accounting firms must be selected from among the four largest global accounting firms. Such audit shall not be performed more frequently that [****] per calendar year nor more frequently than [****] with respect to records covering any specific period of time. Such examination is to be made at the expense of the Auditing Party, except in the event that the results of the audit reveal a discrepancy in favor of the Audited Party of [****] or more over the period being audited, in which case reasonable audit fees for such examination shall be paid by the Audited Party.

2. Methods of Payments. All payments due to either PDL or Roche under this Agreement shall be paid in Dollars by wire transfer to a bank in the U.S. designated in writing by the Party to which the payment is due.

3. Taxes. If provision is made in law or regulation of any country of the Territory for withholding of taxes of any type, levies or other charges with respect to any amounts payable hereunder to a Party, the other Party (“Withholding Party”) shall promptly pay such tax, levy or charge for and on behalf of the Party to the proper governmental authority, and shall promptly furnish the Party with receipt of such payment. The Withholding Party shall have the right to deduct any such tax, levy or charge actually paid from payment due the Party or be promptly reimbursed by the Party if no further payments are due the Party. Each Withholding Party agrees to assist the other Party in claiming exemption from such deductions or withholdings under double taxation or similar agreement or treaty from time to time in force and in minimizing the amount required to be so withheld or deducted.

4. Currency. All payments under this Agreement shall be in Dollars. Whenever payments require conversion from a foreign currency, then this shall be converted using the average daily exchange rate for the period to be reported based on Roche Swiss Franc Sales Statistics, which shall be based on exchange rate information obtained from the Reuters system.

Development Expenses constitute of two main accounting elements, variable costs and fixed costs.

Variable costs are external costs invoiced from Third Parties.

Fixed costs include the amounts expended for personnel, relocation, travel, entertainment and training incurred by the functions directly operating the program. The work scope of these functions include activities within the areas of development operations, clinical quality insurance, medical science, genetics integrated medicine, drug regulatory and technical development. To these primary fixed costs should be added the secondary fixed costs which are attributable to a Party’s costs for IT software and hardware, IT external costs, depreciation, occupancy costs, corporate bonus (to the extent not charged directly), and its payroll, information systems, human relations or purchasing functions. These secondary fixed costs are allocated to company departments based on space occupied or headcount or other activity-based method.

 

  A-6.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


The secondary fixed costs further include costs attributable to general corporate activities for executive management, investor relations, business development, legal affairs and finance. In determining all these fixed costs, the Parties have agreed on an FTE-rate that will be charged for the resources allocated to the programs from the functions directly operating the programs on a fractional FTE-basis. The Parties have agreed on a FTE rate which will be used for calculating FTE’s in the performance of Development activities under the Agreement. The Parties contemplate that this rate captures total actual personnel and fixed costs attributable to the performance of the Joint Development Plan under this Agreement.

All FTE expenditures shall be included in Development Expenses based on a rate of [****]. Each calendar year beginning [****], the FTE rate will be [****] compared to previous calendar year.

Time-recording will be used by all people within these functions to record actual time spent on the activities under the programs. For clarity, FTE time recording should be made on a fractional basis. Each Party will also use its applicable project cost system with the purpose of tracking and reporting costs on a project/product indication/work package level.

C. POST-LAUNCH PRODUCT R&D EXPENSES

Post-Launch Product R&D Expenses shall include certain research and development costs incurred by a Party in relation to a Licensed Product after the first commercial launch and shall exclude administrative expenses and costs that are included within Costs of Goods Sold.

  A-12.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


EXHIBIT B

GMP AUDIT

Pursuant to the Original Asthma Agreement, the Parties have formed an advisory group, consisting of qualification experts from both PDL and Roche. This group has advised, and will continue to advise, PDL on the qualification and validation activities (including a discussion of the PDL process evaluation and process validation plan for Daclizumab) required to license PDL’s manufacturing facility. This group has coordinated an initial, informal audit by Roche of the PDL manufacturing facility project following mechanical completion, which included a review of the Impact Assessment, the System Boundary Drawings, the Commissioning Documents, and sample IQ, OQ, and PQ Documents (which is consistent with the ISPE Baseline Guide for Commissioning and Qualification Activities, the qualification approach currently being applied by PDL). This initial audit was advisory only, and as such, did not trigger any development event payment.

Roche will perform a formal GMP Audit after the completion of PQ by PDL. This audit will include a review of PDL’s PQ Plans and Reports, and their overall Quality Management System, using the standards set forth in ICH Q7A and the US and EMEA Regulations. For clarity, PQ, Process Qualification, is the documented verification that premises and equipment perform effectively, reliably, and meeting predetermined acceptance criteria. The PQ of process support and utility systems involves the operation, sampling, and monitoring of the system under specified conditions over a relevant period of time. Therefore, PQ is mandatory for the critical process support and utility systems, as determined in the PDL Impact Assessment.

PDL should keep Roche directly informed as to their progress toward completion of the PQ, informing Roche of any significant issues that arise. When nearing the completion of PQ, PDL should supply Roche with advance copies of their PQ procedures, plans, and other related documents, and determine, with Roche, an appropriate timeline for the GMP Audit, which allows both Parties to prepare properly.

 

  B-1.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


The GMP Audit will be successful if (a) the PQ Plans, PQ Reports, and Quality Management System are in compliance with cGMP guidelines and (b) there are no observations which (i) will lead to a significant delay of Phase III clinical development or the anticipated launch of the product, (ii) present a significant risk of non-acceptance of the site by regulatory authorities for clinical and/or commercial supplies, or (iii) may place clinical material or commercial supplies “at risk”.

Following the completion of [****] [****], but prior to [****], the payment described in 9.2(c) or 9.3(b), as applicable, will be due.

If PDL, based upon the Licensed Product demand forecasts, decides to expand the capacity of its 610 Manufacturing Facility to supply Licensed Product, then Roche shall have the right, but not the obligation to perform both an informal audit and a formal GMP Audit of such capacity expansion. The purpose, timing, and coordination of such audits would be similar to those described above, except that no development payment would be due pursuant to Section 9.2(c) or 9.3(b) on account of the successful completion of these audits.

PRESS RELEASE

Roche and PDL to Jointly Develop Daclizumab in Transplant Maintenance Therapy

Nutley, NJ and Fremont, CA

Roche and Protein Design Labs, Inc. (PDL) (NASDAQ: PDLI) today announced an expansion to their partnership to co-develop and commercialize daclizumab for organ transplant patients on long-term, maintenance therapy. Roche currently markets daclizumab for induction transplant therapy as Zenapax®. Roche and PDL are developing a new subcutaneous daclizumab (daclizumab s.c.) formulation, manufactured by PDL, for use in Phase II clinical trials expected to start in 2006.

Currently, transplant patients are treated with the combination therapy of Roche’s CellCept® (mycophenolate mofetil) with a calcineurin inhibitor such as cyclosporine and steroids to prevent organ rejection. However, the long-term use of the current calcineurin inhibitors can cause kidney toxicity, diabetes and cardiovascular disorders. Using daclizumab s.c. as maintenance treatment in combination with CellCept may allow for the reduction, and potential elimination, of the more toxic drugs from transplant patient maintenance regimens.

Mark McDade, Chief Executive Officer, PDL, said, “We are enthusiastic about the opportunity to develop daclizumab s.c. with our longstanding partner Roche. Today’s agreement builds upon our existing collaboration with Roche in asthma, as we continue to explore development of daclizumab s.c. in other indications.”

“Roche and PDL are highly committed to daclizumab, our partnership, and in developing better treatments to improve long-term outcomes for transplant patients,” said Peter Hug, Roche’s Global Head of Pharma Partnering. “With the potential to use CellCept® and daclizumab s.c. as the centerpiece for long-term transplant therapy, we could offer patients a safer, more tolerable option.”

 

  E-1.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


Roche and PDL have amended their current agreements to reflect the scope of daclizumab s.c.’s further development. Under the terms of this agreement, PDL will receive a $10 million upfront payment and may be eligible to receive payments up to $145 million if certain milestones are satisfied and if the indication is successfully developed. Roche will continue to manufacture and promote Zenapax® exclusively on a worldwide basis. Roche and PDL will share equally global development costs, and PDL has the option to co-promote daclizumab s.c. for transplant maintenance in the United States. Outside the United States, PDL will receive royalties on net sales of the product in transplant maintenance. As part of this arrangement, the parties agree that PDL will not exercise its option to promote Zenapax® for prevention of acute kidney transplant rejection and PDL is no longer required to make the payment which would otherwise be due in 2007 for such right. PDL and Roche will continue with the co-development of daclizumab s.c. in respiratory disorders, as announced in September 2004.

About the Roche - PDL partnership

In 1989, Roche acquired the worldwide rights to daclizumab, a product approved in 1997 as Zenapax® for the prevention of renal allograft rejection. In October 2003, Roche returned to PDL all rights to daclizumab, except in transplantation where PDL retained the option until 2007 to re-acquire development rights. In September 2004, PDL and Roche announced the continued co-development of daclizumab s.c. in respiratory disorders.

Facts About Zenapax, CellCept and Valcyte

Zenapax is a humanized monoclonal antibody that blocks interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptors and acts as an immunosuppressant. It is used just before and/or at the time of kidney transplantation in combination with cyclosporine and corticosteroids to prevent early rejection. The recommended dose of Zenapax is 1.0 mg/kg. Based on clinical trials, the standard course of Zenapax therapy is five doses. Zenapax received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in December 1997.

The most frequently reported adverse events associated with Zenapax were constipation, nausea, diarrhea and vomiting. Cellulitis and wound infections occurred more frequently in patients treated with Zenapax versus placebo. Severe hypersensitivity reactions following Zenapax administration have been reported rarely.

Only physicians experienced in immunosuppressive therapy and management of organ transplant patients should prescribe Zenapax. The physician responsible for Zenapax administration should have complete information requisite for the follow-up of the patient.

CellCept is an immunosuppressant or anti-rejection drug approved for use in combination with other immunosuppressive drugs (cyclosporine and corticosteroids) for the prevention of rejection in patients receiving kidney, heart and liver transplants.

There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. As CellCept (mycophenolate mofetil) has been shown to have teratogenic effects in animals at subclinical doses on a body surface area basis, it may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. CellCept should not be used in pregnant women unless the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Women of childbearing potential should have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test with a sensitivity of at least 50 mIU/mL within one week prior to beginning therapy even where there has been a history of infertility, unless due to hysterectomy.

Women of childbearing potential must use effective contraception before beginning CellCept therapy, during therapy and for six weeks following discontinuation of therapy.

 

  E-4.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


Two reliable forms of contraception must be used simultaneously unless abstinence is the chosen method. If pregnancy occurs during treatment, the physician and patient should discuss the desirability of continuing the pregnancy (see complete product information).

Adverse events reported in >30% of renal, cardiac or liver transplant patients receiving CellCept (in combination with cyclosporine and corticosteroids) were pain, fever, headache, asthenia, anemia, leucopenia (patients should be monitored for neutropenia; dosing should be interrupted or the dose reduced if neutropenia develops), thrombocytopenia, leukocytosis, urinary tract infection, hypertension, hypotension, peripheral edema, hypercholesteremia, hypokalemia, hyperglycemia, creatinine, BUN and cough increased, hypomagnesemia, diarrhea, constipation, nausea, vomiting, respiratory infection, dyspnea, lung disorder, pleural effusion, tremor and insomnia.

Patients receiving immunosuppressant regimens are at increased risk of developing lymphomas and other malignancies, particularly of the skin.

Warning: Increased susceptibility to infection and the possible development of lymphoma may result from immunosuppression. Only physicians experienced in immunosuppressive therapy and management of renal, cardiac or hepatic transplant patients should use CellCept. Patients receiving the drug should be managed in facilities equipped and staffed with adequate laboratory and supportive medical resources. The physician responsible for maintenance therapy should have complete information requisite for the follow-up of the patient.

Valcyte, the oral pro-drug of Cytovene (ganciclovir), is the most widely prescribed anti-CMV medication in the United States. Valcyte is indicated for the prevention of CMV disease in kidney, kidney-pancreas and heart transplant patients at high risk. Valcyte is not approved for use in liver transplantation. The efficacy and safety of Valcyte in other solid organ transplants, such as lung transplant, have not been established.

The clinical toxicity of Valcyte, which is metabolized to ganciclovir, includes granulocytopenia, anemia and thrombocytopenia. In animal studies ganciclovir was

 

  E-5.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT


carcinogenic, teratogenic and caused aspermatogenesis. Valcyte tablets should not be administered if the absolute neutrophil count is less than 500 cells/µL, the platelet count is less than 25,000/µL or the hemoglobin is less than 8 g/dL. Severe leukopenia, neutropenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, pancytopenia, bone marrow depression and aplastic anemia have been observed in patients treated with Valcyte tablets (and ganciclovir). Other adverse events reported with a frequency of ³ 5% included diarrhea, tremors, fever, nausea, headache, vomiting, insomnia and allograft rejection.

In liver transplant patients, there was a significantly higher incidence of tissue-invasive CMV disease in the Valcyte-treated group compared with the oral ganciclovir group (see CLINICAL TRIALS in the complete product information).
