6.4    Upon the notice as provided in Article 6.3, the Parties shall promptly consult in good faith to determine the ownership of such invention.  Any invention disclosed pursuant to Article 6.3 shall be jointly owned by the Parties, regardless of which Party employs the

inventor(s) of such invention (“Joint Invention”), provided that such invention may be solely owned by one Party if such invention was made by such Party without any use of confidential information (as described in Article 10.2) provided by the other Party.

 

6.5    Upon the request of Radius, Eisai shall disclose the complete texts of Eisai Patent.  Radius shall have the right to review with Eisai’s prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, all information received by Eisai concerning the institution or possible institution of any interference, opposition, re-examination, reissue, revocation, nullification or any official proceeding involving an Eisai Patent anywhere in the world.  Radius shall hold all information disclosed to it under this Article 6.5 as confidential subject to the Article 10.

 

6.6    Upon the request of Eisai, Radius shall disclose the complete texts of Radius Patent.  Eisai shall have the right to review with Radius’ prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, all information received by Radius concerning the institution or possible institution of any interference, opposition, re-examination, reissue, revocation, nullification or any official proceeding involving an Radius Patent anywhere in the world.  Eisai shall hold all information disclosed to it under this Article 6.6 as confidential subject to the Article 10.

 

6.7    Eisai shall have the sole right and authority to prepare, file, prosecute, maintain and obtain extensions of all patent applications and patents included within Eisai Patents in Japan and the Territory.  Eisai shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prosecute and maintain all patent applications and patents included within Eisai Patents.  Radius shall reimburse Eisai for fifty (50) percent of Eisai’s actual external costs and expenses incurred after the Effective Date with respect to prosecuting and maintaining such Eisai Patents in the Territory.  Eisai shall promptly furnish or have furnished to Radius copies of all patents, patent applications, substantive patent office actions, and substantive responses received or filed in connection with such applications for Eisai Patents and use reasonable efforts to solicit Radius’ advice and review of Eisai Patents and material prosecution matters related thereto in reasonable time prior to filing thereof, and Eisai shall consider in good faith Radius’ reasonable comments and suggestions related thereto, which comments and suggestions shall be provided to Eisai without any delay.  Eisai is not required to have English translations of the records provided to Radius for that purpose but shall provide copies of all correspondence and documents that are provided to it in English from patent officials or outside counsel.  Eisai agrees to grant to Radius the right to assume responsibility for any of Eisai Patents or any part of Eisai Patents which Eisai determines in its sole discretion to abandon or otherwise cause or allow to be forfeited.  Such grant shall be made in writing and shall not be inferred from the circumstances.

 

6.8    Radius shall have the sole right and authority to file, prosecute, maintain and obtain extensions of all patent applications and patents included within Radius Patents in Japan and the Territory.  Radius shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to prosecute and maintain all patent applications and patents included within Radius Patents. Radius shall promptly furnish or have furnished to Eisai copies of all patents, patent applications, substantive patent office actions, and substantive responses received or filed in connection with such applications for Radius Patents and use reasonable efforts to solicit Eisai’s advice and review of Radius Patents and material prosecution matters related thereto in reasonable time prior to filing thereof, and Radius shall consider in good faith Eisai’s reasonable comments and suggestions related thereto, which comments and suggestions shall be provided to Radius without any delay.  Radius is not required to have English translations of the records provided to Eisai for that purpose but shall provide copies of all correspondence and documents that are provided to it in English from patent officials or outside counsel.  Radius agrees to grant to Eisai the right to assume responsibility for any of Radius Patent or any part of Radius Patent which Radius intends to abandon or otherwise cause or allow to be forfeited.  Such grant shall be made in writing and shall not be inferred from the circumstances.

 

6.9    With respect to any potentially patentable Joint Invention, the Parties shall meet and agree upon whether and when such Joint Invention is filed as patent application (any such patent application and any patents issuing therefrom “Joint Patents”) , using outside legal counsel selected by Eisai and Radius.  Such outside counsel shall be responsible to both Radius and Eisai, and shall use reasonable efforts to solicit both Radius’ and Eisai’s advice on material prosecution matters related thereto. It is the intention of the Parties that, unless otherwise agreed, Radius shall bear the costs and expenses incurred with respect to the prosecution of such patent applications in the Territory and Eisai shall bear the costs and expenses incurred with respect to the prosecution of such patent applications in Japan, except as otherwise provided below.  The Party that bears such costs and expenses (the “Prosecuting Party”) shall provide the other Party reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such prosecution efforts regarding the applicable Joint Patents in the particular jurisdictions, and such other Party shall provide the Prosecuting Party reasonable assistance in such efforts.  The Prosecuting Party shall provide the other Party with a copy of all material communications from any patent authority in the applicable jurisdictions regarding the Joint Patent being prosecuted by such Party, and shall provide drafts of any material filings or responses to be made to such patent authorities a reasonable amount of time in advance of submitting such filings or responses.  In particular, each Prosecuting Party agrees to provide the other Party with all information necessary or desirable to enable the other Party to comply with the duty of candor/duty of disclosure requirements of any patent authority.  Neither Party shall grant any third party(ies) the right to practice the Joint Patents or any Joint Inventions without prior consent of the other Party anywhere in the world.  Any royalty from such third

parties shall be distributed to the Parties and each Party is entitled to obtain no less than [*] ([*]) percent of such royalty.  Either Party may determine that it is no longer interested in supporting the continued prosecution or maintenance of a particular Joint Patent in a country or jurisdiction, in which case:  (i) such Party shall, if requested in writing by the other Party, assign its ownership interest in such Joint Patent in such country or jurisdiction to the other Party for no additional consideration, and (ii) if such assignment is so effected, any such Joint Patent would thereafter be deemed a Radius Patent in the case of assignment to Radius, or a Eisai Patent in the case of assignment to Eisai.

 

6.10    The Parties will discuss and recommend for which, if any, of the patents within the Eisai Patents, Radius Patents and Joint Patents in the world the Parties should seek patent term extensions in the world.  Radius in the case of the Radius Patents, and Eisai in the case of the Eisai Patents, shall have the final decision-making authority with respect to applying for any such patent term extensions in the world, and will act with reasonable promptness in light of the development stage of Products to apply for any such patent term extensions.  If in a particular country or jurisdiction in the world only one such patent can obtain a patent term extension, then the Parties will consult in good faith to determine which such patent should be the subject of efforts to obtain a patent term extension.  The Party that does not apply for an extension hereunder will cooperate fully with the other Party in making such filings or actions, for    example and without limitation, making available all required regulatory data and information and executing any required authorizations to apply for such patent term extension.

 

6.11    In the event that a third party sues either Party, its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees for patent infringement involving the manufacture, use, sale, distribution or marketing of Product anywhere in the world, the Party sued shall promptly notify the other Party with regard to such action.  With respect to the defense of any such action in the Territory, the Party sued shall be wholly responsible for the defense of such action and shall bear all costs and expenses associated therewith.  In any event, the Party sued shall have the right to request, solely at its own expense, the other Party to assist and cooperate in connection with the defense of such suit.  Upon such request, the other Party shall use all reasonable efforts to assist and cooperate in connection with the defense of such suit.

 

6.12    In the event that either Party becomes aware of actual or threatened infringement of Eisai Patents, Radius Patents or Joint Patents anywhere in the world, it shall promptly notify the other Party thereof in writing, which such notice shall include all information available to the notifying Party regarding such alleged infringement. With respect to infringement of Eisai Patents anywhere in the world, Eisai shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to pursue any and all injunctive, compensatory and other remedies (collectively, “Remedies”) against the infringing third party.  Eisai shall have a period of

[*] ([*]) days after delivery to it of such notice and information to elect to so enforce such Eisai Patents.  In the event Eisai does not so elect, it shall so notify Radius in writing within such [*]-day period, and Radius shall have the right to commence a suit or take action to enforce the applicable Eisai Patents against such infringing third party in the Territory.  In the event Eisai has a reasonable business basis not to enforce such Eisai Patents in the Territory, with the determination of reasonableness taking into account the costs of such litigation, its likelihood for success, the potential damages or settlement recovery, and the potential for exposure to counterclaims and defenses against Eisai with respect to the validity of the Eisai Patents, it shall provide Radius such basis in writing within such [*] ([*]) day period, in which case Radius shall not have such enforcement right in the Territory; provided that, if the Parties discuss in good faith and agree that there could have a big negative impact on the Net Sales by such infringement, Radius shall thereafter be entitled to the royalty adjustment(s) described in Article 4.3 with respect to the applicable country(ies) where such infringement exists as if no patent protection or data protection clauses are in effect for such country(ies).  The Party pursuing Remedies pursuant to this Article 6.12 in respect of Eisai Patents, Radius Patents or Joint Patents shall bear its own costs and expenses relating to such pursuit.

 

Any damages and other amounts collected in any suit or the settlement thereof  that is the subject of this Article 6.12 shall be distributed first, to the Party that pursued Remedies to cover its costs and expenses and, second, to the other Party to cover its unreimbursed costs and expenses, if any, relating to the pursuit of such Remedies.  The balance, if any remaining after the Parties have been compensated for expenses shall be distributed: (a) to Radius in an amount equal to its lost profits or a reasonable royalty on the sales of the infringer with respect to activity in the Territory (whichever measure the court or settlement agreement uses to determine damages); and (b) to Eisai in an amount equal to its lost profits or a reasonable royalty on the sales of the infringer with respect to activity in Japan (whichever measure the court or settlement agreement uses to determine damages). The balance, if any, remaining after Radius has been compensated for lost profits or lost sales and Eisai has been compensated for lost royalties with respect to infringement in the Territory and Eisai has been compensated for lost profits or lost sales in Japan shall be distributed:  (i) [*] ([*]) percent to Radius and [*] ([*]) percent to Eisai in case of Radius pursuing Remedies, and (ii) [*] ([*]) percent to Eisai and [*] ([*]) percent to Radius in case of Eisai pursuing Remedies.

 

With respect to infringement of Radius Patents anywhere in the world, Radius shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to pursue any and all Remedies against the infringing third party.  Radius shall have a period of [*] ([*]) days after delivery to it of such notice and information to elect to so enforce such Radius Patents.  In the event Radius does not so elect, it shall so notify Eisai in writing within such [*]-day period, and Eisai shall have the right to commence a suit or take action to enforce the applicable

Radius Patents against such infringing third party in Japan.  In the event Radius has a reasonable business basis not to enforce such Radius Patents in Japan, with the determination of reasonableness taking into account the costs of such litigation, its likelihood for success, the potential damages or settlement recovery, and the potential for exposure to counterclaims and defenses against Radius with respect to the validity of the Radius Patents, it shall provide Eisai such basis in writing within such [*] ([*]) day period, in which case Eisai shall not have such enforcement right in Japan.

 

In the event that a third party infringes any Joint Patents, Radius shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to pursue Remedies against the infringing third party if such infringement is conducted in the Territory, and Eisai shall have the first right (but not the obligation) to pursue Remedies against the infringing third party if such infringement is conducted in Japan.

 

In any event as set forth in this Article 6.12, upon request from the other Party, Eisai and Radius shall assist one another and cooperate in the pursuit of Remedies, including without limitation joining such action as a party plaintiff if required by applicable law to pursue such action, without charge to the other Party for costs and expenses incurred thereby.

 

6.13    The Parties shall keep one another informed of the status of and of their respective activities regarding any litigation or settlement thereof concerning the Product.  Neither Party shall enter into any settlement or consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any suit defended or action brought pursuant to Article 6.12 without the other Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

7.1    The term of this Agreement shall be determined on a country by country basis, and for each country shall come in effect on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated hereunder, shall terminate upon the later of:  (a) the tenth (10) anniversary of date of commercial launch of the Product in that country, or (b) the last remaining Valid Claim in Eisai Patents expires, lapses or is invalidated in that country, the Product is not covered by data protection clauses, and the sales of lawful generic version of the Product account for twenty five percent (25%) or more of the total sales of all pharmaceutical products containing Compound (including the Product) in that country.  Provided the license to Radius has not previously been terminated under this Agreement, upon expiration of the royalty obligations as to any Product in any country in the Territory, Radius shall thereafter have in perpetuity a fully paid up, royalty-free, non-exclusive license in that

country to use the Eisai Know-how to use, market and sell that Product in such country without any accounting to Eisai.

 

7.2    This Agreement can be terminated by Radius, upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Eisai, as a whole in the Territory, based on a reasonable determination, using the same standards Radius would use in assessing whether or not to continue development and marketing of a product of its own making or to which it had similar rights, that the medical/scientific, technical, regulatory or commercial profile of the Product does not justify continued development or marketing of the Product.  Otherwise, neither Party has any right to terminate without the other Party’s consent except as specified in this Article 7.

 

7.3    This Agreement can be terminated by Eisai on a country by country basis at any time prior to the date on which Radius has filed for either a FDA NDA approval or a EMEA marketing approval with respect to a Product, upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to Radius in the event that Radius is not using its commercially reasonable efforts to Develop the Product in the Territory, unless such default is cured within such 90-day period (or, if such breach is not capable of being cured within such 90-day period, within such amount of time as may be reasonably necessary to cure such breach, so long as Radius is making diligent efforts to do so.  Any termination pursuant to this Article 7.3 shall be based on Eisai’s good faith determination that Radius has not used its commercially reasonable efforts to Develop the Product in the Territory having reference to prevailing principles and time scales associated with the Development, clinical testing and government approval of products of a like nature to such Products.

 

7.4    If either Party fails to perform, in any material respect, covenants or provisions of this Agreement and if such default is not corrected within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice from the other Party with respect to such default, such other Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the other Party in default.  There shall be no waiver of default or impairment of the right to give notice implied by failure to give notice in any period.

 

7.5    If, at any time, either Party shall file in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any state or country, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of receiver or trustee of the Party or of its assets, or if either Party proposes a written agreement of composition or extension of its debts, or if either Party shall be served with an involuntary petition against it, filed in any insolvency proceeding, and such petition shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days after the filing thereof, or if either Party shall propose or be a Party to any dissolution or liquidation, or if either Party shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, the other Party may terminate this Agreement.

 

7.6    Radius shall notify Eisai in advance if Radius proposes to be acquired by or to transfer all of its pharmaceutical business assets (or an essential part of such assets) or fifty (50) percent or more of its voting stock to any third party person or organization, or to otherwise come under the control of, such a person or organization, whether resulting from merger, acquisition, consolidation or otherwise.  Eisai shall have twenty (20) business days following the receipt of such notice from Radius to notify Radius whether Eisai will deem the proposed change a termination event based on the criteria listed in items (1)-(3) below as well as the criteria listed in items (a)-(b) below and if Eisai does not provide such notice within such 20 business day period it will be deemed to have agreed that such change will not entitle Eisai to seek termination under this Article 7.6.  In the event that Radius gives such prior notice and is notified by Eisai that Eisai will deem the proposed change a termination event or Radius without giving such prior notice is acquired by or transfers all of its pharmaceutical business assets or an essential part of such assets to, or if fifty (50) percent or more of its voting stock is acquired by, or otherwise comes under the control of, a person or an organization, whether resulting from merger, acquisition, consolidation or otherwise, Radius shall promptly notify Eisai of such change and Eisai shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with notice to Radius delivered within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of such change in the event that Eisai reasonably determines that the person or organization assuming control of Radius is not able to perform this Agreement with the same degree of skill and diligence that Radius shall use, such determination being made with reference to the following criteria with respect to the person or organization assuming control of Radius: (1) whether such person or organization has the financial resources to assume the obligations of Radius with respect to Development and commercialization of Products; (2) whether such person or organization has personnel with skill and experience adequate to assume the obligations of Radius with respect to Development and commercialization of Products at the stage of Development and commercialization as of the date of such change; and (3) whether such person or organization expressly assumes all obligations imposed on Radius by this Agreement in writing and agrees to dedicate personnel and financial resources to the Development and commercialization of the Product that are at least as great as those provided by Radius.  Radius shall give Eisai information by which Eisai can reasonably determine whether such person or organization satisfies the above criteria together with the notice of such change.  It is understood and agreed that notwithstanding the above criteria listed in (1)-(3), Eisai shall have the right to terminate under this Article 7.6 if: (a) such person or organization has any material and active litigations with Eisai; (b) such person or organization is a Japanese pharmaceutical company; or (c) such person or organization is a hostile takeover bidder against Radius which has not been approved by the Board of Directors of Radius as constituted immediately prior to such change of control.  It is understood and agreed that an underwritten public offering of Radius’ common stock pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act

of 1933, as amended, will not be considered a change of control triggering a termination right under this Article 7.6.

 

 

8.1    Upon termination of this Agreement, Eisai shall have the right to retain any sums already paid by Radius hereunder, and Radius shall continue to be obligated to pay all sums accrued hereunder at the time of termination which are then due.

 

8.2    Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason except material breach by Eisai, Radius shall notify Eisai of the amount of Product Radius then have on hand, the sale of which would, but for termination, be subject to royalty, and Radius shall thereupon be permitted to sell that amount of Product provided that Radius shall pay the royalty thereon at the time herein provided for.

 

8.3    In either case that Radius terminates this Agreement in accordance with Article 7.2 or that Eisai terminates this Agreement in accordance with Article 7.3, 7.4, 7.5 or 7.6, Radius shall provide or transfer to Eisai all technical information and know-how categorized as Radius Know-How which it possesses at the time of the termination in a timely manner.  Thereafter, Eisai shall have a worldwide, royalty-free and perpetual license, under Radius Patents and Radius Know-How, to develop, manufacture, have manufactured, import and sell Compound and Product.  In addition to the license to Radius Patents and Radius Know-How, Eisai will have the option to assume, to the extent transferable, any third party licenses and agreements relating to the Product without compensation to Radius; this right is independent and subordinate to the rights of such each sublicensee under Article 8.5.

 

8.4    Termination of this Agreement shall terminate all outstanding rights and obligations between the Parties arising from this Agreement except those described in this Article 8 as well as Articles 1, 4, 5.4 (solely with respect to Product or Semi-Product or bulk Compound material provided by Radius through the date of termination), 5.6 (solely with respect to Product or Semi-Product or bulk Compound material provided by Radius through the date of termination), 6.1, 6.4 (second, third and fourth sentences), 9, 10.2, 11 (solely with respect to Product or Semi-Product or bulk Compound material provided by Radius through the date of termination), and 13-16.

 

8.5    In the event the licenses granted to Radius under this Agreement terminates for any reason, each of Radius’ sublicensees at such time shall continue to have the rights and license set forth in their sublicense agreements, provided that such sublicensee agrees in

writing that:  (a) Eisai is entitled to enforce all relevant provisions directly against such sublicensee; and (b) Eisai shall not assume, and shall not be responsible to such sublicensee for, any representations, warranties or obligations of Radius to such sublicensee other than to permit such sublicensee to exercise any rights to the Eisai Patents and Eisai Know-How and Eisai’s undivided interest in Joint Patents that are sublicensed under such sublicense agreement consistent with the terms of Article 2.1 of this Agreement.

 

 

9.1    As of the Effective Date, Eisai warrants to Radius that it has the exclusive rights to license the entire right, title and interest in Eisai Patents and Eisai Know-How and has the right to enter into this Agreement and to make the promises set forth in this Agreement and that there are no outstanding agreements, assignments or encumbrances in existence in breach of the provisions of this Agreement.  As of the Effective Date, Radius warrants to Eisai that it has the right to enter into this Agreement and to make the promises set forth in this Agreement and that there are no outstanding agreements, assignments or encumbrances in existence in breach of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

9.2    As of the Effective Date, Eisai warrants to Radius that, to the best of its knowledge, no Eisai Patents has or will be obtained through any intentional activity, omission or representation by Eisai that would limit or destroy the validity and/or enforceability of Eisai Patents, and Eisai has no knowledge or information as of the Effective Date that would have a material adverse effect on the validity and/or enforceability of any Eisai Patent.

 

9.3    Each Party represents and warrants to the other Party as of the Effective Date that the performance by such Party of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement on its part to be performed does not and will not constitute a breach of any other material agreement or understanding, written or oral, to which it is a party.

 

9.4    Eisai represents and warrants to Radius as of the Effective Date that there are no adverse proceedings, claims or actions pending, or to the best of Eisai’s knowledge, threatened, relating to any Eisai Patent and Eisai know-How and at the time of disclosure and delivery thereof to Radius, Eisai shall, to the best of its knowledge, have the full right and legal capacity to disclose and deliver the Eisai Patents and Eisai Know-How without violating the rights of any third parties.

 

9.5    Except for the express warranties in this Article 9 and Article 5.4(b), neither Party makes any warranties, express or implied, in fact or by operation of law, statutory or otherwise.  Each Party specifically disclaims any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.  NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF AN AUTHORIZES REPRESENTATIVE OF SUCH PARTY IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OR LIKELIHOOD OF SAME EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 12.

 

10.1    During the term of this Agreement, Eisai shall promptly inform Radius of Eisai Know-How that may become known to it and information that it obtains or develops regarding the utility or safety of Compound or Product.  During the term of this Agreement, Radius shall promptly inform Eisai of Radius Know-How and information that Radius obtains, knows or develops regarding Compound or Product.

 

10.2    During the term of this Agreement and for ten (10) years thereafter, Eisai and Radius shall not use for any purpose other than this Agreement and shall not reveal or disclose to third parties the subject matter of this Agreement and any confidential information received as confidential from the other Party or otherwise developed by either Party in the performance of activities in furtherance of this Agreement without first obtaining the written consent of the other Party.  This limitation shall not apply to information in the event and to the extent that receiving Party can demonstrate by competent written proof that such information

 

(i)was in the possession of receiving Party at the time of disclosure by the disclosing Party;

 

(ii)was publicly known prior to the time of disclosure to receiving Party;

(iii)became publicly known after disclosure to receiving Party through no action or inaction of receiving Party;

(iv)was independently discovered or developed by receiving Party without the aid, application, or use of information received from the disclosing Party;

(v)was obtained with prior written consent of providing Party which allows disclosure; or

(vi)is required by law, regulation or court order to be disclosed; provided that receiving Party agrees to provide providing Party with prompt notice of such request so that providing Party will have an opportunity to limit obtain appropriate protective order regarding such disclosure.  Receiving Party agrees to cooperate with providing Party at providing Party’s expense, in any lawful effort to contest the requirement of such disclosure.  The portion of such information that remains publicly undisclosed after such disclosure shall not be used for other than this Agreement and shall be treated in confidence.

Neither Party shall have the right to publish or present to the public confidential information of the other Party, except as permitted under Articles 10.2 or 10.3.  Nothing contained in this Article 10.5 shall prohibit the inclusion of the results of non-clinical scientific studies or clinical trials related to the Product necessary for a patent application, provided that the non-filing Party is given a reasonable opportunity to review the draft of such patent application prior to submission of such patent application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, either Party may publish information about the clinical trials performed or to be performed on the Product without the need to obtain the other Party’s approval (provided, however, that such Party will use reasonable efforts to inform the other Party and to allow the other Party to comment on the disclosure), to the extent that such disclosure is required, in the disclosing Party’s reasonable opinion, to comply with applicable laws, regulations, guidelines and/or formal position papers of recognized pharmaceutical industry associations or medical journals or such Party’s standard business practice with respect to similar disclosure of clinical trial information.  It is understood and agreed that the exception specified in the preceding sentence shall not permit either Party to disclose any material that is patentable without first complying with the procedures set forth in the second sentence of this Article 10.5.
