Roche shall have the right to [* * *] Roche shall not [* * *] without the agreement of the Parties through the JOC (“Other Chugai Asset Activities”) (disputes with respect to which, for clarity, shall be subject to Section 8.1.6.3(c)).
Roche hereby grants Regeneron an exclusive option to obtain the right and sublicense under any Patent Rights and know-how owned or controlled by Chugai that Roche obtains through the exercise of the Roche Chugai Option to [* * *] and a financial interest in the commercialization of the Chugai Asset in the entire Territory, in each case, in accordance with this Section 9.2 (the “Chugai Asset Option”).
Roche shall provide Regeneron periodic updates regarding the development and characteristics of the Chugai Asset at each JOC meeting.
Without Regeneron’s consent in its discretion, Roche will not enter into any agreement with a Third Party (including, for clarity, Chugai) that would conflict with the rights that Regeneron would have with respect to the Chugai Asset if Regeneron exercises the Chugai Asset Option.
9.2.1Chugai Asset Data Package
If Roche desires to exercise the Roche Chugai Option, then after [* * *] Roche shall provide, or cause Chugai to provide, Regeneron a complete data package with respect to the Chugai Asset, including all data, reports, documentation and other information relating to the Chugai Asset, necessary or reasonably useful for the Parties to determine whether the Chugai Asset has satisfied the Chugai Asset Criteria, including the results of such Clinical Study and any other clinical or non-clinical data, all information regarding the manufacturing process (including yields), route or frequency of administration, and the proprietary position of the Chugai Asset (the “Chugai Asset Data Package”).
Within [* * *] after Regeneron receives the Chugai Asset Data Package, the Parties shall discuss in good faith and endeavor to mutually agree (a) whether or not the Chugai Asset Data Package satisfies the Chugai Asset Data Package Criteria and (b) if the Chugai Asset Data Package satisfies the Chugai Asset Data Package Criteria, then whether or not the Chugai Asset satisfies the Chugai Asset Criteria. If the Parties cannot agree within [* * *] following Regeneron’s receipt
- 48 -


of the Chugai Asset Data Package (x) whether or not the Chugai Asset Data Package satisfies the Chugai Asset Data Package Criteria, or (y) whether or not the Chugai Asset satisfies the Chugai Asset Criteria, then, in either case ((x) or (y)), such dispute shall be determined in accordance with Section 21.2, and if still not resolved, then decided by an Expert Committee pursuant to Section 21.4.
If both Parties agree, or the Executive Officers or Expert Committee, as applicable, determines that the Chugai Asset Data Package does not satisfy the Chugai Asset Data Package Criteria or that the Chugai Asset has not satisfied the Chugai Asset Criteria, then, in either case, Roche shall not exercise the Roche Chugai Option and the Chugai Asset shall remain a Competing Product for purposes of this Agreement, and the obligations set forth in Section 9.1 shall continue to apply to Roche with respect to the Chugai Asset.
Thereafter, if Roche receives any additional data or information with respect to the Chugai Asset and desires to exercise the Roche Chugai Option, Roche shall deliver to Regeneron an updated Chugai Asset Data Package, and the process set forth in this Section 9.2.1 shall apply to determine whether the updated Chugai Asset Data Package satisfies the Chugai Asset Data Package Criteria, and whether the Chugai Asset satisfies the Chugai Asset Criteria.
9.2.2Chugai Asset Agreement
If both Parties agree, or the Executive Officers or Expert Committee determines that the Chugai Asset satisfies the Chugai Asset Criteria (such agreement or determination, “Chugai Asset Positive Determination”), then Regeneron shall have the right, within [* * *] following the date on which the Chugai Asset Positive Determination is made (the “Exercise Period”), to exercise the Chugai Asset Option by providing written notice to Roche (“Exercise Notice”).
Roche shall not exercise the Roche Chugai Option until the Chugai Asset Positive Determination has been made, and either (a) Regeneron exercises the Chugai Asset Option by providing the Exercise Notice, or (b) Regeneron notifies Roche in writing that Regeneron will not exercise the Chugai Asset Option or fails to provide the Exercise Notice during the Exercise Period.
If Regeneron exercises the Chugai Asset Option by providing the Exercise Notice within the Exercise Period, then Regeneron and Roche shall, and Roche shall cause Chugai to, promptly negotiate and execute a separate license agreement (the “Chugai Asset Agreement”) or an amendment to this Agreement (the “Chugai Asset Amendment”) that is consistent with the terms and conditions set forth on Appendix 9.2 and on other terms mutually acceptable to Regeneron, Roche and Chugai, which the Parties anticipate will be substantially similar to the terms of this Agreement except as set forth on Appendix 9.2.
If (A) Regeneron notifies Roche in writing that Regeneron will not exercise the Chugai Asset Option or (B) Regeneron fails to provide the Exercise Notice during the Exercise Period, then the Chugai Asset Option shall expire. If thereafter Roche exercises the Roche Chugai Option or otherwise obtains any right to develop or commercialize the Chugai Asset, then (X) Roche shall promptly notify Regeneron of such exercise or receipt of such other right, and (Y) Regeneron shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon [* * *] prior written notice to Roche, which right must be exercised within [* * *] after notice from Roche of the first commercial sale of the
- 49 -


Chugai Asset, and such termination by Regeneron shall be deemed to be a termination by Roche pursuant to Section 19.2.5 for purposes of post-termination effect and obligations.
Additionally, if the Chugai Asset receives Regulatory Approval in Japan, and the Parties have not entered into the Chugai Asset Agreement or Chugai Asset Amendment, as applicable, then upon Regeneron’s request, Roche shall immediately terminate Chugai’s sublicense with respect to the Products in Japan.
During the Agreement Term, neither Party shall have the right to develop or commercialize the Chugai Asset until the Chugai Asset Agreement or Chugai Asset Amendment is executed by the Parties and Chugai, except that (i) Roche shall have the right to conduct the Permitted Chugai Activities and Other Chugai Asset Activities approved by the JOC; (ii) if (A) Regeneron notifies Roche in writing that Regeneron will not exercise the Chugai Asset Option or (B) Regeneron fails to provide the Exercise Notice during the Exercise Period, then Roche shall thereafter have the right to develop and commercialize the Chugai Asset, and (iii) if Regeneron exercises the Chugai Asset Option by providing the Exercise Notice within the Exercise Period, then, for clarity, the last sentence of the first paragraph of Section 9.2 shall remain in effect while the Parties and Chugai are negotiating the Chugai Asset Agreement or Chugai Asset Amendment, [* * *].
10.Payment
10.1Reimbursement [* * *] for Development Activities
With respect to each Co-Funded Study, the Party not performing such Co-Funded Study shall reimburse the Party performing such Co-Funded Study for [* * *] incurred by or on behalf of such performing Party or any of its Affiliates in connection with performing such Co-Funded Study (including, for clarity, such [* * *] incurred by or on behalf of Regeneron or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Additional Regeneron Studies prior to the Effective Date) to the extent such [* * *] are not funded by a Third Party. For clarity, each Party shall bear its internal costs with respect to performing any Co-Funded Study.
With respect to Co-Funded Device Development Activities, the Party not performing such Co-Funded Device Development Activities shall reimburse the Party performing such Co-Funded Device Development Activities for [* * *] incurred by or on behalf of such performing Party or any of its Affiliates in connection with performing such Device Development Activities to the extent such [* * *] are not funded by a Third Party. [* * *]
With respect to each Unilateral Study, if the Party not performing such Unilateral Study uses any data or results from such Unilateral Study to obtain, maintain or expand any Regulatory Approval or any pricing or reimbursement for, otherwise includes such data or results in the label for, or uses such data and results to commercialize, a Product in its Respective Territory, then such non-performing Party shall reimburse the Party that performed such Unilateral Study for [* * *] incurred by or on behalf of such performing Party or any of its Affiliates in connection with such Unilateral Study to the extent such [* * *] are not funded by a Third Party. For clarity, the submission of data and results from a Unilateral Study to a Regulatory Authority only for safety reporting purposes in connection with periodic safety reporting or as a courtesy copy shall not result in a reimbursement obligation under this paragraph. The Party not performing the applicable Unilateral Study shall promptly notify the performing Party of any use of the data or
- 50 -


results of such Unilateral Study that would result in a reimbursement obligation under this paragraph.
With respect to Unilateral Device Development Activities, if the Party not performing such Unilateral Device Development Activities wishes to use the delivery device or other results of such Unilateral Device Development Activities for a Product in its Respective Territory, then such non-performing Party shall reimburse the Party that performed such Unilateral Device Development Activities for [* * *] incurred by or on behalf of such performing Party or any of its Affiliates in connection with such Unilateral Device Development Activities to the extent such [* * *] are not funded by a Third Party, and the performing Party shall provide the results of the Unilateral Device Development Activities to the non-performing Party and such other information and assistance as is required for the non-performing Party to manufacture and use the delivery device resulting from such Unilateral Device Development Activities.
10.2Global Gross Profit Sharing
Beginning with the Calendar Quarter in which the Collaboration Timepoint occurs, with respect to each Presentation of Product, Roche Basel shall be entitled to the product of (i) [* * *] of the Global Gross Profit for such Presentation in such Calendar Quarter, multiplied by the Roche Production Contribution for such Presentation in such Calendar Quarter (“Roche Global Gross Profit”) and (ii) Regeneron will be entitled to the remainder of the Global Gross Profit; provided, that for the Calendar Quarter in which the Collaboration Timepoint occurs, for purposes of this Section 10.2 the amount of the Global Gross Profit for such Calendar Quarter shall be prorated based on the ratio of the number of days in such Calendar Quarter from and after the Collaboration Timepoint and the total number of days in such Calendar Quarter.
Example:
[* * *]
Notwithstanding the foregoing:
    (a) if prior to the [* * *], Roche Basel has received all Regulatory Approvals necessary to manufacture Finished Product for commercial use in the EU but not the Regeneron Territory, Roche Basel may sell Product in the Roche Territory and, in the case of such sales, may retain [* * *] of the Global Gross Profit for the Roche Territory prior to the [* * *] (and shall provide [* * *] of such Global Gross Profits to Regeneron), [* * *]. For clarity, Roche Basel shall not be entitled to share any of the Global Gross Profit in the Regeneron Territory until Roche Basel has received all Regulatory Approvals necessary to manufacture Finished Product for commercial use in the Regeneron Territory; or
    (b) if prior to the [* * *], Roche Basel has received all Regulatory Approvals necessary to manufacture Finished Product for commercial use in the Regeneron Territory, but not the EU, [* * *], then (i) Roche shall transfer such Product to Regeneron for sale in the Regeneron Territory by Regeneron in accordance with the allocation provided in Section 5.1 following the [* * *], and Roche may, upon mutual agreement of the Parties, transfer additional Product to Regeneron for sale in the Regeneron Territory by Regeneron; and (ii) the Parties shall share the Global Gross Profits for the Regeneron Territory as provided in the first paragraph of this Section 10.2; or
- 51 -


(c) if prior to the [* * *], Roche Basel has received all Regulatory Approvals necessary to manufacture Finished Product for commercial use (X) in the EU and the Regeneron Territory, or (Y) in the Regeneron Territory but not the EU, and in either case ((X) or (Y)), [* * *], then Roche shall transfer such Product to Regeneron for sale in the Regeneron Territory by Regeneron in accordance with the allocation provided in Section 5.1 following the [* * *], and in the case of clause (Y), Roche may, upon mutual agreement of the Parties, transfer additional Product to Regeneron for sale in the Regeneron Territory by Regeneron; provided that, in either case ((X) or (Y)), [* * *], (A) Regeneron may retain [* * *] of the Global Gross Profit for the sales of Products supplied by Roche in the Regeneron Territory [* * *] and (B) [* * *].
[* * *]

10.3Disclosure of Payments
Each Party acknowledges that the other Party may be obligated to disclose this financial arrangement, including all fees, payments and transfers of value, as required under Applicable Law; provided, however, that any such disclosure shall be subject to the provisions of Section 18.2.
11.Accounting and Reporting
11.1Mechanics and Timing of Payments
For Global Gross Profit payments, on a Presentation-by-Presentation basis, commencing with the first Calendar Quarter after the Collaboration Timepoint or any Interim Collaboration Timepoint in which a Party incurs Net Sales (a) within [* * *] after the end of each Calendar Quarter, such Party shall share with the other Party a good faith estimate of (i) such Party’s Net Sales of such Presentation, (ii) the units of such Presentation sold by or on behalf of such Party, its Affiliates and Sublicensees in such Calendar Quarter, (iii) the units of such Presentation sold by or on behalf of such Party, its Affiliates and Sublicensees in such Calendar Quarter for which the Drug Substance was manufactured by the Roche Group (which may be determined in accordance with Appendix 1.106, if applicable), (iv) [* * *], and (v) the units of such Presentation distributed as [* * *], in each case, by or on behalf of such Party, its Affiliates and Sublicensees in such Calendar Quarter; and (b) as soon as practicable after the end of each such Calendar Quarter, but in any event no later than [* * *] after the end of each such Calendar Quarter, such Party shall share with the other Party the actual Net Sales in accordance with the foregoing subclause (i) and units dispersed in accordance with the foregoing subclauses (ii) - (v) of such Presentation, together with a calculation of such Party’s Gross Profit for such Presentation for such Calendar Quarter (each report described in this clause (b), a “Gross Profit Interim Report”). Each Party shall have [* * *] after the delivery of the other Party’s Gross Profit Interim Report to review and ask questions. Within [* * *] following the end of such Calendar Quarter, each Party shall update its Gross Profit Interim Report to reflect the final amounts and the Parties shall coordinate to aggregate the final reports to calculate the total Global Gross Profit and Roche Global Gross Profit (“Global Gross Profit Final Report”). The Party that owes
- 52 -


payment to the other Party pursuant to the Global Gross Profit Final Report shall pay such amount within [* * *] after receipt of an invoice from the Party that is due payment.
For Co-Funded Study reimbursement and Co-Funded Device Development Activities reimbursement, respectively, the Parties shall share a good faith estimate of the applicable costs incurred, within [* * *] after the end of each Calendar Quarter in which such costs are incurred. As soon as practicable after the end of each such Calendar Quarter, but in any event no later than [* * *] after the end of each such Calendar Quarter, each Party shall share with the other Party [* * *] incurred by such Party (each, a “Reconciliation Interim Report”), together with reasonable supporting documentation for such [* * *]. Each Party shall have [* * *] after the delivery of the other Party’s Reconciliation Interim Report to review and ask questions. Within [* * *] following the end of such Calendar Quarter, each Party shall update its Reconciliation Interim Report to reflect the final amounts and the Parties shall coordinate to aggregate the reports to calculate the total amount to be reimbursed under this Agreement (“Reconciliation Final Report”). The Party that owes payment to the other Party pursuant to the Reconciliation Final Report shall pay such amount within [* * *] after receipt of an invoice from the Party that is due payment.
With respect to each Unilateral Study for which reimbursement becomes due, within [* * *] after the Party that performed such Unilateral Study becomes aware that such reimbursement is due, such performing Party shall share with the other Party the [* * *] incurred by such conducting Party for such Unilateral Study (a “Unilateral Study Costs Report”), together with reasonable supporting documentation for such [* * *]. The non-performing Party shall have [* * *] after the delivery of the Unilateral Study Costs Report to review and ask questions. If the non-performing Party raises any questions to be addressed, the performing Party shall update its Unilateral Study Costs Report to reflect the final amounts within [* * *] after the delivery of the initial Unilateral Study Costs Report. The non-performing Party shall pay the performing Party the applicable amount within [* * *] after receipt of an invoice from the performing Party.
Any payments of Standard Costs for Product supplied by one Party to the other Party or for manufacturing services performed by one Party to the other Party under this Agreement shall be paid in accordance with Section 11.5.
Any payment required to be made to Regeneron by Roche pursuant to this Section 11.1 or Section 11.5 shall be made by Roche Basel.
11.2Late Payment
Any payment under this Agreement that is not paid on or before the date such payment is due shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, at a rate equal to [* * *] points above the average one-month Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR), as reported by Reuters from time to time, calculated on the number of days such payment is overdue, unless such payment amount is reasonably disputed in good faith, in which case the amount payable after such dispute is resolved shall start to earn interest hereunder on the date such dispute is resolved.
- 53 -


11.3Method of Payment
All amounts payable by one Party hereunder shall be paid by the other Party in Dollars (the “Payment Currency”) by bank wire transfer in immediately available funds to account(s) designated by the other Party.
11.4Currency Conversion
In those cases where the amount due in Dollars is calculated based upon one or more currencies other than Dollars, the Party converting such amounts to Dollars shall use their respective then-current internal foreign currency translation method actually used on a consistent basis in preparing its audited financial statements. As of the Effective Date, the internal foreign currency translation method (a) for Roche, is to convert currencies other than Dollars or Swiss Francs to Swiss Francs and then to Dollars at the year-to-date average rate as reported by Reuters (or any successor thereto), and (b) for Regeneron, is to convert currencies other than Dollars to Dollars using the average of the daily spot rates (the Mid Price Close) found on Bloomberg (or any successor thereto). Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party if there is any change to its then-current internal foreign currency translation method.
11.5Reimbursement
For all amounts for which a Party (the “Owing Party”) is obligated to reimburse or pay the other Party (the “Owed Party”) pursuant to this Agreement or the Technology Transfer Agreement, for which no specific provision is provided hereunder or thereunder regarding how such payment shall be made, or any payments under Section 4.2(c), the Owed Party shall send to the Owing Party an invoice for such amount within [* * *] after the Owed Party’s determination that such amount is payable by the Owing Party, which invoice shall include a reference to the section of this Agreement under which the Owed Party is requesting reimbursement or payment and be accompanied by reasonable documentation of the incurrence or accrual of the costs to be reimbursed. Payment with respect to each such invoice shall be due within [* * *] after receipt by the Owing Party thereof and shall be made in accordance with Section 11.3 and Section 11.4.
11.6Payment Disputes
With respect to any payment obligations under this Agreement, if the Owing Party in good faith disputes any portion of any such payment, it shall pay the undisputed portion and shall provide the Owed Party with written notice of the disputed portion and its reasons therefor, and the Owing Party shall not be obligated to pay such disputed portion unless and until such dispute is resolved in favor of the Owed Party. The Parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve any such disputes promptly.
12.Taxes
12.1Certain Taxes
Regeneron shall pay all sales, turnover, income, revenue, value added, and other taxes levied on account of any payments accruing or made to Regeneron under this Agreement.
- 54 -


Roche shall pay all sales, turnover, income, revenue, value added, and other taxes levied on account of any payments accruing or made to Roche under this Agreement.
12.2Withholding Taxes
If provision is made in law or regulation of any country for withholding or deduction of taxes of any type, levies or other charges with respect to any amounts payable under this Agreement to Regeneron or Roche, then Roche or Regeneron (as applicable) shall be entitled to withhold or deduct the amount of such taxes, levies, or other charges from such amount payable and shall promptly pay such tax, levy or charge for and on behalf of Regeneron or Roche (as applicable) to the proper governmental authority, and shall promptly furnish Regeneron or Roche (as applicable) with receipt of payment. Roche or Regeneron (as applicable) shall be entitled to deduct any such tax, levy or charge actually paid from payment due Regeneron or Roche (as applicable) or be promptly reimbursed by Regeneron or Roche (as applicable) if no further payments are due to Regeneron or Roche (as applicable). Each Party agrees to reasonably 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. Any amounts deducted and withheld from any payment to a Party pursuant to this Section 12.2 shall be treated as having been paid to such Party.
12.3FDII Documentation
To the extent applicable and reasonably requested by Regeneron, Roche shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Regeneron with any documentation or other certifications required pursuant to Section 250(b) of the Code, and any regulations or other guidance promulgated thereunder necessary for any payments made to Regeneron pursuant to this Agreement to qualify as “foreign-derived deduction eligible income” within the meaning of Section 250(b)(4) of the Code. Regeneron shall reimburse Roche for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by Roche in connection with providing such documentation or other certification to Regeneron. The Parties intend that Regeneron shall be entitled to any deduction under Section 250(b) of the Code for which Regeneron is eligible with respect to the remainder of the Global Gross Profit under Section 10.2, and this Agreement shall be interpreted accordingly.
13.Auditing
13.1Right to Audit
Each Party shall keep, and shall require its Affiliates and its and their Sublicensees, if any, to keep, full, true and accurate books of account containing all particulars that may be necessary for the purpose of calculating all payments payable under this Agreement (e.g. the Parties’ calculation of Standard Costs). Such books of accounts shall be kept at such Party’s, Affiliate’s or Sublicensee’s, as applicable, principal place of business. At the expense of the auditing Party, the auditing Party shall have the right, in accordance with the remainder of this Section 13.1, Section 13.2 and Section 13.3, to engage an internationally recognized independent public accountant reasonably acceptable to the audited Party to perform, on behalf of the auditing Party, an audit of such books and records of the audited Party and its Affiliates and its and their Sublicensees that are deemed necessary by the independent public accountant to report on the correctness of any financial report or payments made under this Agreement for the period or
- 55 -


periods requested by the auditing Party. The Parties shall cause such accountant to enter into a reasonably acceptable confidentiality agreement with the audited Party obligating such accountant to retain all such financial information in confidence pursuant to terms no less stringent than those set forth in Article 18.
Upon timely request and at least [* * *] prior written notice from the auditing Party, such audit shall be conducted for those countries the auditing Party has specifically requested, during regular business hours in such a manner as to not unnecessarily interfere with the audited Party’s normal business activities. Such audit shall be limited to books and records with respect to the [* * *] Calendar Years prior to audit notification, and if the auditing Party requests an audit for a country for a given Calendar Year, no additional audits may be conducted for such country for such Calendar Year unless a material discrepancy is found in such audit. If auditing Party does not request an audit for a given Calendar Year on or before the [* * *] anniversary of the end of such Calendar Year, then the auditing Party shall no longer have the right to conduct an audit for such Calendar Year under this Section 13.1.
Such audit for a country shall not be performed more frequently than once per Calendar Year nor more frequently than once with respect to records covering any specific country for any specific period of time unless a material discrepancy is found in such audit.
All books of accounts herein referred and any information contained therein shall be (a) used by the auditing Party only for the purpose of verifying payments and reports hereunder and (b) treated as the audited Party’s Confidential Information subject to the obligations of this Agreement.
13.2Audit Reports
The auditors shall only state factual findings in the audit reports and shall not interpret this Agreement. The auditors shall share all draft audit findings with the audited Party before sharing such findings with the auditing Party and before the final audit report is issued and shall remove any information reasonably identified by the audited Party as being confidential or competitively sensitive or proprietary information. The final audit report shall be shared with the audited Party at the same time it is shared with the auditing Party. The auditors shall not reveal to the auditing Party the details of its review, except for the findings of such review and such information as is required to be disclosed under this Agreement. The results of any such audit shall be final and binding upon the Parties, unless disputed by a Party within [* * *] of delivery. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligation to pay any amount based on a disputed audit shall not be deemed to have been triggered until such dispute is resolved hereunder; provided that all amounts that are not in dispute shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
13.3Over-or Underpayment
If the audit reveals an overpayment, the overpaid Party shall reimburse the other Party for the amount of the overpayment within [* * *] (and, if such overpayment was made due to an error in an invoice or report provided by such overpaid Party, with interest thereon as provided in Section 11.2). If the audit reveals an underpayment, the underpaying Party shall reimburse the other Party for the amount of the underpayment within [* * *] (and, if such additional amounts are owed due to an error in an invoice or report provided by such underpaying Party, with interest
- 56 -


thereon as provided in Section 11.2). The audited Party shall reimburse the auditing Party for the audit costs if the cumulative discrepancy of amounts reported or paid during the applicable audited period exceeds [* * *].
14.Intellectual Property
14.1Ownership of Intellectual Property
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the ownership of any Patent Rights, know-how or other intellectual property, in each case, developed prior to the Effective Date or independent of this Agreement, including, for clarity, Roche Independent IP. Regeneron shall own all Regeneron Inventions and all Patent Rights and other intellectual property rights that Cover the Regeneron Inventions. Roche shall own all Roche Inventions and all Patent Rights and other intellectual property rights that Cover the Roche Inventions. Regeneron and Roche shall jointly own all Joint Inventions and Joint Patent Rights. Regeneron and Roche each shall require, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to require (a) all of its (or its Affiliates’) employees and consultants to assign all inventions related to Compounds or Products made by them to Roche or Regeneron (or such Affiliate), as the case may be and (b) all other persons or entities who perform any activities for or on behalf of such Party to assign (or, if such Party is unable to cause such person or entity to agree to such assignment obligation despite such Party’s using Commercially Reasonable Efforts to negotiate such assignment obligation, provide an exclusive license under) their rights in any such Inventions or Patent Rights to such Party.
Each Party shall promptly disclose to the other Party in writing, the discovery, development or creation of any Invention made solely or jointly by or on behalf of such Party, any of its Affiliates, or, if applicable, Sublicensees in connection with the performance of obligations under this Agreement. Each Party shall promptly disclose to the other and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to disclose any Know-How made solely or jointly by or on behalf of such Party or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees in connection with the performance of obligations under this Agreement that constitutes an improvement to the process of manufacturing the Compounds or Products.
The determination of inventorship for Inventions shall be in accordance with US inventorship laws as if such Inventions were made in the US.
Subject to the licenses granted under this Agreement and Roche’s obligation under Article 9, Regeneron and Roche will each have an equal undivided share in the Joint Patent Rights, without obligation to account to the other for exploitation thereof, or to seek consent of the other Party for the grant of any license thereunder.
Except as specifically set forth herein, this Agreement shall not be construed as (i) giving either of the Parties any license, right, title, interest in or ownership to the Confidential Information of the other Party; (ii) granting any license or right under any intellectual property rights; or (iii) representing any commitment by either Party to enter into any additional agreement, by implication or otherwise.
With respect to Know-How (other than Inventions) generated pursuant to this Agreement, (a) Regeneron shall own such Know-How (i) generated by or on behalf of Regeneron or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees solely or jointly with a Third Party or (ii) generated by or on behalf of
- 57 -


the Roche Group solely or jointly with Regeneron or any of its Affiliates or a Third Party that is specifically related to any Product (including the composition of, formulations containing, any methods of using, or the manufacture of, a Product) ((i) and (ii) together, “Arising Regeneron Know-How”), (b) Roche shall own such Know-How generated by or on behalf of the Roche Group solely or jointly with a Third Party, excluding any Arising Regeneron Know-How, and (c) the Parties shall jointly own any Joint Know-How. For clarity, Arising Regeneron Know-How shall not include any Roche Independent IP or any Know-How of general applicability to antibody products and not specific to the Product. For example, Know-How that can be applied to purification of antibodies generally but not specific to manufacturing of a Compound or Product shall not be considered Arising Regeneron Know-How.
Each Party shall, and does hereby, assign, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their Sublicensees, as applicable, to so assign, to the other Party, without additional compensation, such right, title and interest in and to any Inventions, Know-How, Patent Rights or other intellectual property rights as is necessary to fully effect, as applicable, the sole or joint ownership provided for in this Section 14.1. Pursuant to Section 21.18, each Party shall duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts and things, including the filing of such applications, approvals, assignments, agreements, documents, and instruments, and shall provide any additional consents, as may be necessary or as the other Party may reasonably request for a Party to perfect or exercise its rights provided for in this Section 14.1.
Roche here grants Regeneron a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license under any Arising Roche Manufacturing IP for any and all purposes. “Arising Roche Manufacturing IP” shall mean any Inventions, Know-How, Patent Rights and other intellectual property rights arising under this Agreement generated by or on behalf of the Roche Group solely or jointly with Regeneron or any of its Affiliates or a Third Party that is related to Regeneron’s manufacturing process for a Product and that does not constitute Arising Regeneron Invention, Arising Regeneron Know-How or a Patent Right that Covers any Arising Regeneron Invention or Arising Regeneron Know-How (which Patent Rights, for clarity, shall be owned by Regeneron). For clarity, Roche shall own any Arising Roche Manufacturing IP.
14.2Inventions Made by Employees, Subcontractors and Services Providers
In accordance with any Applicable Law regarding employee’s inventions, each Party agrees to claim the ownership or exclusive and unlimited use of any Invention conceived, reduced to practice, developed, made or created in the performance of, or as a result of, any activities under or in connection with this Agreement by employees of such Party or its applicable Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party, or its Affiliates (as applicable) is responsible for fulfilling the obligations towards its or their respective employees under any Applicable Law providing for compensation to employees for inventions.
Each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to, obtain an assignment from subcontractors or service providers to such Party or its applicable Affiliates or Sublicensees of all Inventions related to a Product made by such individuals during the course of and as a result of their performance under this Agreement.
- 58 -


14.3Trademarks and Labeling
Regeneron shall have the right and responsibility to create, select and obtain the International Non-proprietary Name (INN) from the World Health Organization and the US Adopted Name (USAN) from the US Adopted Names Council (USANC) as the generic name(s) for the Products.
The JOC shall select one or more global trademark(s) for use on the Product in the Territory, including any accompanying logos, slogans, trade names, domain names, trade dress or other indicia of origin, excluding the corporate names and logos of either Party (the “Global Trademarks”). If, under Applicable Law, none of the Global Trademarks for a Product can be used for the commercialization of such Product in a country in the Roche Territory, the JOC shall discuss and select one (1) or more alternative trademarks, including any accompanying logos, slogans, trade names, domain names, trade dress or other indicia of origin, for the commercialization of such Product in such country (each, an “Alternative Product Trademark”); provided, that if the Parties are unable to agree on such Alternative Product Trademarks, the JOC shall have the right to select such Alternative Product Trademarks.

During the Agreement Term, each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing upon learning of any of the foregoing.
(c)Insurance
During the Agreement Term and for a minimum period of [* * *] thereafter and for an otherwise longer period as may be required by Applicable Law, each of Regeneron and Roche will procure and maintain insurance consistent with industry practice or required by Applicable Law, which may be through self-insurance.

16.1Indemnification by Roche
Roche shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Regeneron, Regeneron’s Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (“Regeneron Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, expenses, cost of defense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, witness fees, damages, taxes, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) (collectively, “Losses”) in connection with any and all suits, investigations, claims or demands of Third Parties (collectively, “Claims”) arising from or occurring as a result of (a) the breach of this Agreement or the Supply Agreement by Roche or any of its Affiliates, if applicable, (b) the negligence or willful misconduct of any Roche Indemnitee or a Sublicensee of Roche in performing its or their obligations under this Agreement, (c) any regulatory activities conducted by Regeneron or its Affiliates to assist Roche to obtain Regulatory Approval for a Product (other than the First Approval Activities) in the Roche Territory pursuant to Section 6.1.2, or (d) any employee of Roche or its Affiliates who is involved in the development or commercialization of the Compounds or the Products being Debarred, except, in the case of (a) and (b), to the extent Regeneron has an obligation to indemnify Roche for Losses pursuant to Section 16.2, as to which Losses each Party shall indemnify the other Party to the extent of their respective liability for such Losses.
16.2Indemnification by Regeneron
Regeneron shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Roche, Roche’s Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (“Roche Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses in connection with any and all Claims arising from or occurring as a result of (a) the breach of this Agreement or the Supply Agreement by Regeneron or any of its Affiliates, if applicable, (b) the negligence or willful misconduct of any Regeneron Indemnitee or a Sublicensee of Regeneron in performing its or their obligations under this Agreement, or (c) any employee of Regeneron or its Affiliates who is involved in the development or commercialization of the Compounds or the Products being Debarred, except, in each case ((a) and (b)), to the extent Roche has an obligation to indemnify Regeneron for Losses pursuant to Section 16.1, as to which Losses each Party shall indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for such Losses.
- 72 -


16.3No Fault Claims
With respect to any Claim arising out of or related to the research, development, seeking and obtaining Regulatory Approval for, making, using, importing or exporting of the Compounds or Products under this Agreement that is not subject to indemnification under Section 16.1 or Section 16.2 and is not subject to Section 14.13 (each, a “No Fault Claim”), (a) the provisions of Section 16.4 shall not apply with respect to the defense of such No Fault Claim and the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to establish a mutually agreeable strategy with respect to defending such No Fault Claim, including whether to settle any such No Fault Claim and (b) [* * *]. For clarity, neither Party shall settle any No Fault Claim without the other Party’s consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
16.4Indemnification Procedure
All indemnification claims in respect of a Regeneron Indemnitee or a Roche Indemnitee shall be made solely by Regeneron or Roche, as applicable (each of Regeneron or Roche in such capacity, the “Indemnified Party”). The Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the other Party (“Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the Claim, and any Losses or discovery of fact upon which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 16.1 or Section 16.2 (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”).
With respect to each Claim, the obligations of the Indemnifying Party shall be governed by and contingent upon the following:
(a)At its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Claim by notifying the Indemnified Party in writing within [* * *] after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. The assumption of the defense of a Claim by the Indemnifying Party shall not be construed as an acknowledgment that the Indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party or its Indemnitees, in respect of such Claim, nor shall it constitute a waiver by the Indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s or its Indemnitees’ claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Claim, the Indemnifying Party may appoint the lead counsel in the defense of such Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Claim, the Indemnified Party shall promptly deliver to the Indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party or any of its Indemnitees in connection with the Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Claim, except as provided in subsection (b) below, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party or any of its Indemnitees in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of such Claim unless specifically requested in writing by the Indemnifying Party. If it is ultimately determined that the Indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Indemnified Party or its Indemnitees from and against the Claim, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any Losses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in its defense of the Claim.
(b)The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of a Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment shall be at the Indemnified Party’s sole cost and expense unless (i) the employment thereof, and the assumption by the Indemnifying Party of such cost and expense, have been specifically requested in writing by the Indemnifying Party, (ii) the Indemnifying Party
- 73 -


has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 16.4(a) (in which case the Indemnified Party shall control the defense) or (iii) the interests of the applicable Indemnitees and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Claim are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both entities under Applicable Law, ethical rules or equitable principles (in which case the Indemnified Party shall control its defense).
(c)With respect to any Losses relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Claim and that shall not result in the applicable Indemnitee becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affecting the business of the applicable Indemnitee in any manner and as to which the Indemnifying Party shall have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate. With respect to all other Losses in connection with any Claim, if the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Claim in accordance with Section 16.3, the Indemnifying Party shall have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss; provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If the Indemnifying Party controls the defense of a Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party shall not settle such Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
(d)Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Claim, the Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause each Indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include access during normal business hours afforded to the Indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party and Indemnitees of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Claim and making Indemnitees and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder and the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.
(e)Except as provided above, the Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any Claim shall be reimbursed on a Calendar Quarter basis by the Indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the Indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the Indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party or its Indemnitees.
17.Liability
EXCEPT FOR INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF A PARTY UNDER ARTICLE 16, BREACHES OF CONFIDENTIALITY IN ARTICLE 18, BREACHES OF ARTICLE 9, GRANT BY EITHER PARTY OF A LICENSE IN BREACH OF THE Exclusive license granted BY IT under Section 2.1(IV) or Section 2.4(IV), GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, AND ANY OTHER LIABILITY TO THE EXTENT SUCH LIABILITY CANNOT BE LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER FROM THE
- 74 -


OTHER PARTY ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFIT, LOSS OF REVENUE, OR LOST OPPORTUNITY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LICENSE GRANTED HEREUNDER REGARDLESS OF ANY PRIOR NOTICE OF SUCH DAMAGES.
18.Obligation Not to Disclose Confidential Information
18.1Non-Use and Non-Disclosure
During the Agreement Term and for [* * *] thereafter, a Receiving Party shall (a) treat Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party as strictly confidential and with similar care as it would treat its own information of a similar nature, and (b) not use such Confidential Information other than for fulfilling its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement; provided that with respect to any Confidential Information that is specifically identified as a trade secret, or that the other Party has reason to know is a trade secret under Applicable Law, such obligations shall survive until such Confidential Information is no longer a trade secret under Applicable Law.
The Receiving Party covenants that neither it nor any of its respective Affiliates shall disclose any Confidential Information of the other Party (or its Affiliates) to any Third Party except (i) to its employees, agents, consultants or any other person under its authorization; provided that such employees, agents, consultants or persons are subject in writing to substantially the same confidentiality obligations as the Parties, (ii) as approved by both Parties hereunder, (iii) Third Parties to the extent reasonably necessary to market the Product in the Territory; provided that such Third Parties are subject in writing to substantially the same confidentiality obligations as the Parties under this Agreement, (iv) to permitted potential and actual Sublicensees or subcontractors; provided that such permitted potential and actual Sublicensees or subcontractors are subject in writing to substantially the same confidentiality obligations as the Parties under this Agreement, or (v) as set forth elsewhere in this Agreement; provided that the exceptions in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) shall not apply with respect to Proprietary Manufacturing Information.
18.2Permitted Disclosure
Notwithstanding the obligation of confidentiality, non-use and non-disclosure set forth in Section 18.1 but subject to Section 18.3, the Parties recognize the need for certain exceptions to this obligation, and each Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent that such disclosure is:
(a)made in response to a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or other supra-national, federal, national, regional, state, provincial or local governmental or regulatory body of competent jurisdiction or, if in the reasonable opinion of the Receiving Party’s legal counsel, such disclosure is otherwise required by Applicable Law, including by reason of filing with securities regulators; provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall first have given notice to the Disclosing Party and given the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to quash such order or to obtain a protective order or confidential treatment; provided, further, that the Confidential Information disclosed in response to such order or as required by Applicable Law shall be limited to that information that is legally required to be disclosed in response to such order or by such Applicable Law;
- 75 -


(b)made by or on behalf of the Receiving Party to the Regulatory Authorities as required in connection with any filing, application or request for Regulatory Approval pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information to the extent practicable and consistent with Applicable Law;
(c)made to a US government agency or contractor in connection with performance of a US government agreement or sub-agreement (provided that appropriate markings to protect Confidential Information pursuant to US government regulations are applied to Confidential Information to the extent applicable); provided, however, that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information to the extent practicable and consistent with Applicable Law; or
(d)with respect to Joint Know-How, made by either Party or its Affiliates as may be necessary or useful in connection with the exploitation of any product that is not a Competing Product in the Territory.
18.3Proprietary Manufacturing Information
Without limitation of any of the foregoing, Roche shall adopt and implement reasonable firewall procedures to prevent the disclosure of and use of Proprietary Manufacturing Information beyond the persons who are required to receive such information in order to manufacture the Products or to prepare, submit, obtain or maintain Regulatory Approvals for the Products in the Field in the Roche Territory in accordance with this Agreement (and who are bound by confidentiality obligations no less stringent than those provided in this Agreement), including by establishing reasonable physical and electronic safeguards, segregating all Proprietary Manufacturing Information from its own information or materials or that of others (including Affiliates) in order to prevent commingling; not copying or otherwise duplicating any embodiments of the Proprietary Manufacturing Information, except as necessary to manufacture the Products or to prepare, submit, obtain or maintain Regulatory Approvals for the Products in the Field in the Roche Territory in accordance with this Agreement (provided that any such copies or duplications of such Proprietary Manufacturing Information shall be marked “confidential,” “proprietary”, or the like); and notifying Regeneron immediately, and cooperating with Regeneron as Regeneron may reasonably request, upon any discovery of any loss or compromise of Proprietary Manufacturing Information.
[* * *]
Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, if Roche or any of its Affiliates receives a request for any Proprietary Manufacturing Information from any governmental authority under any freedom of information law, including the United States Freedom of Information Act or the State Council Regulations on Open Government Information, then Roche shall (i) notify Regeneron of such request within [* * *], (ii) permit Regeneron or any of its Affiliates to oppose such request or to seek other limitations on such request, in each case, to the extent consistent with the Applicable Law and (iii) provide Regeneron with reasonable assistance in opposing such request or seeking such limitations. Roche shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, disclose any Proprietary Manufacturing Information to any governmental authority in response to a request under any freedom of information law without Regeneron’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed;
- 76 -


provided that Regeneron acknowledges and agrees that it would be unreasonable for it to not consent to any disclosure if such lack of disclosure would cause Roche or any of its Affiliates to violate Applicable Law.
Any Regeneron Confidential Information (as the term is defined in the Technology Transfer Agreement) that constitutes Proprietary Manufacturing Information shall be governed by the applicable terms under this Agreement.
18.4Press Releases; Use of Name
The Parties shall mutually agree on the content of any press releases, and shall coordinate on the initial press release promptly after the Effective Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or for any such disclosure that is, in the opinion of the issuing Party’s counsel, required by Applicable Law or the rules of a stock exchange on which the securities of the issuing Party (or any parent entity thereof) are listed, neither Party shall issue any other public announcement or press release or make any other public disclosure regarding this Agreement, its terms or its subject matter without the other Party’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Regeneron shall be responsible for, and shall have the final decision-making authority on any press releases for any Ongoing Regeneron Studies.
The restrictions imposed by this Section 18.4 shall not prohibit either Party from making any disclosure if, in the opinion of the counsel of the Party making such disclosure, such disclosure is required by Applicable Law or the rules of a stock exchange on which the securities of the first Party, provided, that such Party shall submit the proposed disclosure to the other Party in advance (and in no event less than [* * *] prior to the anticipated date of disclosure) so as to provide a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon, and shall consider the other Party’s comments in good faith.
Except as expressly provided herein or required by Applicable Law, neither Party shall use the name, logo or trademark of the other Party or any of its Affiliates or any of its or their Sublicensees (or any abbreviation or adaptation thereof) in any publication, press release, marketing and promotional material or other form of publicity without the prior written approval of such other Party.
18.5Publications
During the Agreement Term, the following restrictions shall apply with respect to disclosure by any Party of Confidential Information relating to the Compounds or Products in any publication or presentation:
(a)With respect to publications or presentations relating to Co-Funded Studies where Roche is involved in operationalizing the Co-Funded Study and for other joint publications or presentations, the Parties will work together in good faith to co-author such publication or presentation, and will mutually agree in good faith on all aspects of such publication or presentation, including without limitation the content of the publication or presentation and the timing and manner of its publication or presentation. If the Parties cannot reach agreement, then the Party that sponsors, or is primarily responsible for operationalizing, the Co-Funded Study will make the final determination on all aspects of such publication or presentation except with respect to disclosure of an invention, solely or jointly conceived or
- 77 -


reduced to practice by the other Party, or the Confidential Information of the other Party (other than the results of the Co-Funded Study).
(b)With respect to publications or presentations relating to Co-Funded Studies where Roche is not involved in operationalizing the Co-Funded Study (including, for clarity, the Additional Regeneron Studies), Regeneron shall provide Roche with a copy of such proposed publication or presentation at least [* * *] (or at least [* * *] in the case of oral presentations) prior to submission for publication so as to provide Roche with an opportunity to recommend any changes it reasonably believes are necessary to continue to maintain the Confidential Information disclosed by Roche to Regeneron in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. The incorporation of such recommended changes shall not be unreasonably refused; and if Roche notifies (“Roche Publishing Notice”) Regeneron in writing, within [* * *] after receipt of the copy of the proposed publication or presentation (or at least [* * *] in the case of oral presentations), that such publication or presentation in its reasonable judgment (i) contains an invention, solely or jointly conceived or reduced to practice by Roche, for which Roche reasonably desires to obtain patent protection, in which case Regeneron shall delay such publication for a mutually agreeable period of time not to exceed [* * *] from the date of the Roche Publishing Notice; or (ii) contains Confidential Information of Roche (other than the results of any Co-Funded Study), in which case, Regeneron shall, upon Roche’s request, remove from the publication such information.
(c)With respect to publications or presentations related to Unilateral Studies or other unilateral publications or presentations by a Party relating to the Compounds or Products, subject to Section 18.5(d), the Party proposing such publication or presentation (“Publishing Party”) shall provide the other Party with a copy of such proposed publication or presentation at least [* * *] (or at least [* * *] in the case of oral presentations) prior to submission for publication so as to provide such other Party with an opportunity to recommend any changes it reasonably believes are necessary to continue to maintain the Confidential Information disclosed by the other Party to the Publishing Party in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. The incorporation of such recommended changes shall not be unreasonably refused; and if such other Party notifies ("Publishing Notice") the Publishing Party in writing, within [* * *] after receipt of the copy of the proposed publication or presentation (or at least [* * *] in the case of oral presentations), that such publication or presentation in its reasonable judgment; (i) contains an invention, solely or jointly conceived or reduced to practice by the other Party, for which the other Party reasonably desires to obtain patent protection, in which case the Publishing Party shall delay such publication for a mutually agreeable period of time not to exceed [* * *] from the date of the Publishing Notice; or (ii) contains Confidential Information of such other Party (other than the results of any Clinical Study conducted under this Agreement, if applicable), in which case, the Publishing Party shall, upon the other Party’s request, remove from the publication such information. In the case of publications or presentations by Roche relating to a Roche Unilateral Study, Roche agrees to include authors from Regeneron in such publication or presentation.
(d)The obligations under Section 18.5(c) shall not apply to any publications or presentations by Regeneron or any of its Affiliates related to activities conducted with respect to the Compounds or Products prior to the Effective Date, and Regeneron shall provide Roche an advance copy of any such publications or presentations.

19.Term and Termination
19.1Commencement and Term
This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and continue for the Agreement Term (which, for clarity, includes any extension agreed by the Parties).
19.2Termination
19.2.1Termination for Breach
A Party (“Non-Breaching Party”) shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety in the event the other Party (“Breaching Party”) is in breach of any of its material obligations under this Agreement. The Non-Breaching Party shall provide written notice to the Breaching Party, which notice shall identify in reasonable detail the facts underlying or constituting the alleged breach. The Breaching Party shall have a period of [* * *] after such written notice is provided (“Peremptory Notice Period”) to cure such breach. If the Breaching Party has a bona fide dispute as to whether such breach occurred or has been cured, it will so notify the Non-Breaching Party, and the expiration of the Peremptory Notice Period shall be tolled until such bona fide dispute is resolved pursuant to Section 21.2. Upon a determination of breach or failure to cure, the Breaching Party may have the remainder of the Peremptory Notice Period to cure such breach. If such breach is not cured within the Peremptory Notice Period, then absent withdrawal of the Non-Breaching Party’s request for termination, this Agreement shall terminate in its entirety effective as of the expiration of the Peremptory Notice Period. A Party’s failure to meet the Minimum Committed Regeneron Capacity or the Minimum Committed Roche Capacity, as the case may be, shall be considered a breach of a material obligation by such Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Regeneron’s rights with respect to Roche’s breach of its diligence obligations set forth in Section 6.2 or Section 7.3 shall be subject to Section 19.2.2(a) and Section 19.2.2(b).
19.2.2Termination for Roche Diligence Breach or Failure to Commercialize
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement,
(a)Roche’s breach of its regulatory diligence obligation set forth in Section 6.2 or its commercialization diligence obligations set forth in Section 7.3 with respect to a Roche Major Country will not give Regeneron the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety and will give Regeneron the right to terminate this Agreement solely with respect to such Roche Major Country.
(b)Roche’s breach of its regulatory diligence obligation set forth in Section 6.2 or its commercialization diligence obligations set forth in Section 7.3 with respect to the ROW, taken as a whole, will not give Regeneron the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety and will give Regeneron the right to terminate this Agreement solely with respect to the ROW.
(c)If, after [* * *] following the First Commercial Sale of the Lead Product in any country in the EU or the United Kingdom, Roche is not commercializing any Product in a country in the Roche Territory, and upon Regeneron’s written inquiry to the Roche Chair of the JOC, confirms in writing that it has no plans to commercialize any Product in such country, or
- 79 -


does not provide Regeneron within [* * *] after receiving such inquiry from Regeneron with a reasonable written plan to commercialize a Product in such country during the Agreement Term, and Regeneron in good faith plans to commercialize the Product in such country, then Regeneron shall have the right to terminate this Agreement solely with respect to such country immediately upon written notice to Roche.
The notice requirement and opportunity to dispute and cure a breach as set forth in the second through fifth sentences of Section 19.2.1 above shall apply to any termination pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 19.2.2, provided that Regeneron’s right to terminate will be limited as set forth in this Section.
19.2.3Insolvency
A Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, if the other Party incurs an Insolvency Event; provided, however, in the case of any involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, such right to terminate shall only become effective if the Party that incurs the Insolvency Event consents to the involuntary bankruptcy or such proceeding is not dismissed within [* * *] after the filing thereof.
19.2.4Termination by Roche for Technical Failure
If (i) both of the first two Ongoing Regeneron Studies listed in Appendix 1.73 are placed on clinical hold by the FDA or EMA that continues for thirty (30) days, unless Regeneron is undertaking reasonable actions to have either such clinical hold removed, in which case if such hold continues for ninety (90) days, (ii) the Lead Product has not received an Emergency Use Authorization prior to May 31, 2021, (iii) Regeneron has not filed for full Regulatory Approval of the Lead Product in the US prior to May 31, 2021, or (iv) Regeneron terminates further development of the Lead Product, then Roche shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, provided in each case, such notice of termination is delivered by Roche within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of the condition giving rise to the right of termination.
19.2.5Termination by Roche due to [* * *] Third Party Product
If a Third Party Antibody product targeting SARS-CoV-2 in form of a single Antibody or a cocktail of at least two Antibodies is [* * *] the safety and efficacy profile of such Third Party Antibody product confers a substantial public health benefit over the Lead Product [* * *] (an “Alternative Third Party Product”), then Roche shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon (a) sixty (60) days prior written notice at any time if such notice is given prior the First Commercial Sale of the Lead Product in the Territory; or (b) six (6) months prior written notice at any time if such notice is given after First Commercial Sale of the Lead Product in the Territory; provided, that, with respect to the Chugai Asset as the Alternative Product, Roche shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 19.2.5 unless Regeneron has notified Roche in writing that Regeneron will not exercise the Chugai Asset Option or Regeneron does not provide the Exercise Notice during the Exercise Period.
If the Parties cannot agree on whether the safety and efficacy profile of an Alternative Third Party Product confers a substantial public health benefit over the Lead Product in either treatment or prophylactic use, such matter shall be determined in accordance with Section 21.2, and if still not resolved, then decided by an Expert Committee pursuant to Section 21.4, and
- 80 -


Roche shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 19.2.5 unless and until such Expert Committee determines that the safety and efficacy profile of such Alternative Third Party Product confers a substantial public health benefit over the Lead Product in either treatment or prophylactic use.
19.3Consequences of Expiration or Termination
19.3.1Transfer of Products
Upon the expiration or earlier termination for any reason of this Agreement, the rights and licenses granted by each Party to the other under this Agreement shall terminate in their entirety, on the effective date of expiration or termination, as applicable, subject to Regeneron’s rights in Section 19.3.1(c).
Upon any termination or expiration of this Agreement, if Regeneron desires to continue development or commercialization of Product(s), Regeneron shall give a Continuation Election Notice to Roche within [* * *] of Regeneron’s notice of termination (in the event of termination by Regeneron) or receipt of Roche’s notice of termination (in the event of termination by Roche). If Roche receives such a timely Continuation Election Notice, and to the extent requested by Regeneron and consistent with ensuring a smooth and orderly transition to Regeneron or its designee, Roche shall perform the following activities (the “Roche Transfer Activities”):
(a)Roche shall assign and transfer to Regeneron or its designee all regulatory filings and approvals, regulatory communications, all final pre-clinical and Clinical Study reports and Clinical Study protocols, Product Trademarks and all data, including clinical data, in Roche’s possession or control related to all Product(s).

21.3Equitable Relief
The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the restrictions on the Parties under Article 9 and Article 18 are special, unique and of extraordinary character, that the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement absent the restrictions set forth in Article 9 and Article 18, and that if any Party refuses or otherwise fails to act, or to cause its Affiliates to act, in accordance with the provisions of Article 9 or Article 18, such refusal or failure may result in irreparable injury to the other Party, the exact amount of which would be difficult to ascertain or estimate and the remedies at law for which would not be reasonable or adequate compensation.

Nothing in this Section 21.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement is intended or should be construed to limit either Party’s right to equitable relief or any other remedy for a breach of any other provision of this Agreement.
- 86 -


21.4Expert Committee
If, after escalation to the Executive Officers in accordance with Section 21.2, the Parties are unable to agree on whether (a) the safety and efficacy profile of an Alternative Third Party Product confers a substantial public health benefit over the Lead Product in either treatment or prophylactic use settings, (b) whether or not the Chugai Asset Data Package satisfies the Chugai Asset Data Package Criteria, (c) if the Chugai Asset Data Package satisfies the Chugai Asset Data Package Criteria, then whether or not the Chugai Asset satisfies the Chugai Asset Criteria, (d) whether or not an Additional Compound Data Package satisfies the Additional Compound Data Package Criteria, or (e) whether or not an Additional Compound or a Back-Up Compound, as applicable, satisfies the Additional Compound Criteria (each of (a) - (e), an “Expert Matter”), then any such Expert Matter shall be decided by the following procedure. Roche will select one (1) individual who would qualify as an Expert, Regeneron will select (1) individual who would qualify as an Expert, and those two (2) individuals shall select one (1) individual who would qualify as an Expert and who shall be chairperson of a committee of the three Experts (the “Expert Committee”), each Expert with a single deciding vote. The Parties shall use good faith efforts to form the Expert Committee within [* * *] after expiration of the Executive Officers’ negotiation period. The Expert Committee will promptly (but no more than [* * *] after the appointment of the third (3rd) Expert) hold a meeting to review the issue under review and will provide the Parties with at least [* * *] notice of such meeting. At such meeting, the Expert Committee will consider memoranda submitted by each Party at least [* * *] before the meeting, as well as reasonable presentations that each Party may present at the meeting.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Party shall have the right to assign this Agreement or any part hereof or any of the rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other Party except (a) in whole or in part to an Affiliate of the assigning Party, or (b) in whole to any Third Party who acquires all or substantially all of the business of the assigning Party by merger, sale of assets or otherwise; provided that the assigning Party shall remain primarily liable hereunder with respect to any assignment under this clause (b) with respect to obligations and liabilities relating to the period prior to such assignment, and in each case ((a) and (b)), so long as such Affiliate or Third Party agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Roche Basel shall not assign its rights under this Agreement or any part thereof to any US Person without the prior written consent of Regeneron. Any attempted assignment in violation hereof shall be void. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

21.6Affiliates
Each Party may perform its obligations under this Agreement through one or more of its Affiliates. Each Party absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the other Party the prompt and timely performance of the responsibilities, liabilities, covenants, warranties, agreements and undertakings of its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Party shall cause or permit any of its Affiliates to commit any act (including any act or omission) which such Party is prohibited hereunder from committing directly.
21.7Independent Contractor
No employee or representative of either Party shall have any authority to bind or obligate the other Party to this Agreement for any sum or in any manner whatsoever or to create or impose any contractual or other liability on the other Party without said Party’s prior written approval. For all purposes, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties’ legal relationship under this Agreement shall be that of independent contractors, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, agency or fiduciary relationship between the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed by the Parties, any of their Affiliates, or any third party to treat the relationship between the Parties contemplated by this Agreement as a partnership, joint venture or other business entity under US federal, state, local, or non-US tax law, and the Parties shall not take any position, on a tax return or otherwise, inconsistent therewith. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses incurred in the performance of its obligations hereunder without charge or expense to the other Party except as expressly provided for in this Agreement.
21.8Unenforceable Provisions and Severability
If any of the provisions of this Agreement are held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable at law or in equity, then such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law, and the Parties shall consult and use all reasonable efforts to agree upon, and hereby agree and consent to, replacement legal, valid and enforceable provisions that will achieve as far as possible the intentions of the Parties (including the economic benefits and rights contemplated herein) while avoiding any unjust enrichment of either Party. However, the remainder of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, provided that the material interests of the Parties are not affected, i.e. the Parties would presumably have concluded this Agreement without the unenforceable provisions.
21.9Force Majeure
Except for payment obligations, each Party shall be excused from any failure or delay in performance required hereunder (and any liability or responsibility for such failure or delay) to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from any catastrophes or other major events beyond its reasonable control, including, embargoes, acts of terrorism, civil commotions, acts of God, disease, pandemics, lockouts or other labor disturbances, war, riot, and insurrection; laws, proclamations, edicts, ordinances, or regulations; strikes, lockouts, or other serious labor disputes; and floods, fires, explosions, or other natural disasters.

- 88 -


will use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of such force majeure circumstances.
21.10Waiver
The failure by either Party to require strict performance or observance of any obligation, term, provision or condition under this Agreement will neither constitute a waiver thereof nor affect in any way the right of the respective Party to require such performance or observance. The waiver by either Party of a breach of any obligation, term, provision or condition hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach thereof or of any other obligation, term, provision or condition. No delay or omission by a Party in exercising or availing itself of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude the later exercise of any such right, power or privilege by such Party. No waiver shall be effective unless made in writing with specific reference to the relevant provision(s) of this Agreement and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Party granting the waiver.
