(2) if the JSC Dispute solely relates to an intellectual property, manufacturing and/or regulatory matter (in each case excluding any dispute to the extent relating to any matters which are the subject of Section 7.4) and the Executive Officers cannot resolve the matters within five (5) Business Days, then the matter shall be decided by the Executive Officer, or designee, of Celularity in good faith, giving appropriate consideration to the reasonable business concerns of Sanuwave and without limiting Sanuwave’s rights and licenses under this Agreement.
 
(3) Notwithstanding Sections 3.1(c)(ii)(1) and 3.1(c)(ii)(2) above, any dispute relating to Article 6 or any financial term of this Agreement, shall be excluded from the provisions of this Section 3.1(c)(ii) and shall be conclusively settled in accordance with Article 12 below.

Each Party shall provide the other Party with reasonable advance notice of all meetings, conferences and discussions scheduled with any Regulatory Authority in any country or jurisdiction concerning a Licensed Product to the extent such meeting, conferences and discussions affects this Agreement and/or such other Party’s obligations hereunder, and shall consider any input from the other Party in preparing for such meetings, and if permitted by the relevant Regulatory Authority, appropriate personnel from such other Party may have the right to attend such meetings, conferences or discussions at each Party’s own expense.
 
4.3. Notification of Threatened Action. Each Party shall immediately notify the other Party of any information it receives regarding any threatened or pending action, inspection or communication by or from any Third Party, including a Regulatory Authority, which may materially affect the Commercialization or regulatory status of a Licensed Product.

4.4. Adverse Event Reporting and Safety Data Exchange. As soon as practical, the Parties shall enter into a commercially reasonable pharmacovigilance agreement (the “Safety Data and Exchange Agreement”). The Safety Data and Exchange Agreement shall include customary guidelines and procedures for the receipt, investigation, recordation, communication, and exchange (as between the Parties) of adverse event reports, pregnancy reports, and any other information concerning the safety of any Licensed Product. Such guidelines and procedures shall be in accordance with, and enable the Parties to fulfill, local and national regulatory reporting activities under applicable Laws. Furthermore, such agreed procedure shall be consistent with relevant guidelines of the International Conference on Harmonisation, except where such guidelines may conflict with existing local regulatory reporting or safety reporting requirements, in which case the local reporting requirements shall prevail. The Safety Data and Exchange Agreement shall provide for an adverse event database for Licensed Products in the Territory to be maintained by Celularity. Celularity shall be responsible for reporting quality complaints, adverse events and safety data related to Licensed Products to applicable Regulatory Authorities in the Territory, as well as responding to safety issues and to all requests of Regulatory Authorities relating to Licensed Products in the Territory. Each Party hereby agrees to comply with its respective activities under such Safety Data and Exchange Agreement and to cause its Affiliates which perform such Party’s obligations under this Agreement to comply with such activities.
 
4.5. Remedial Actions. Each Party shall notify the other Party immediately, and promptly confirm such notice in writing, if it obtains information indicating that any Licensed Product may be subject to any recall, corrective action or other regulatory action with respect to a Licensed Product taken by virtue of applicable Laws (a “Remedial Action”). The Parties shall assist each other in gathering and evaluating such information as is necessary to determine the necessity of conducting a Remedial Action, provided that before taking action, Celularity shall consult with Sanuwave as to the course of the Remedial Action to be taken. If Sanuwave disagrees with Celularity as to whether Remedial Action should be taken or what Remedial Action is appropriate, then the Executive Officers of both parties shall convene within twenty-four (24) hours in an attempt to resolve the disagreement. If the disagreement cannot be resolve by them, then then the matter shall be decided by the Executive Officer, or his or her designee, of Celularity in good faith, giving appropriate consideration to the reasonable business concerns of Sanuwave and without limiting Sanuwave’s rights and licenses under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, the Parties shall comply with all orders of the FDA or any other applicable authority on a timely basis. The cost of any Remedial Action shall be borne by Celularity. Celularity shall, and shall ensure that its Affiliates will, maintain adequate records to permit the Parties to trace the distribution and use of the Licensed Products. Celularity shall have the right to decide whether any Remedial Action with respect to any Licensed Product should be commenced and Celularity shall, at its expense, control and coordinate all efforts necessary to conduct such Remedial Action. Upon Celularity’s reasonable request, Sanuwave shall reasonably cooperate with, and provide reasonable assistance to, Celularity in connection with any activities undertaken by Celularity pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, at Celularity’s sole cost and expense.
 
4.6. Rebate Processing and Government Price Reporting. Sanuwave will be solely responsible for all federal, state and local government and private purchasing, pricing or reimbursement programs with respect to the Licensed Products, including taking all necessary and proper steps to execute agreements and file other appropriate reports and other documents with Governmental Authorities and private Persons and Celularity shall provide reasonable assistance to Sanuwave to effectuate the same. Sanuwave shall be solely responsible for payment and processing of all discounts, rebates, and fees, whether required by contract or Laws, for the Licensed Products. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to Licensed Products, Sanuwave shall report all applicable data, including price, rebate and discount data to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, data to the Department of Veterans Affairs and any other pricing or reimbursement related data required by Governmental Authorities under applicable Laws (“Government Price Reporting”). Sanuwave’s Government Price Reporting shall comply with all applicable Laws and contracts. Sanuwave shall pay the rebates, chargebacks, discounts, and fees for the Licensed Products as required by applicable Laws and contracts. If Celularity notifies Sanuwave that it is required to refer to Licensed Products sales made by Sanuwave, or other reimbursement or Commercialization-related data maintained by Sanuwave under this Agreement, in Celularity’s reports to Governmental Authorities, Sanuwave shall provide Celularity with required sales figures or other data for Licensed Products sales made by Sanuwave, and Celularity shall be entitled to use such data or information that Sanuwave provides under this Section 4.6 or otherwise for complying with Celularity’s required reports to Governmental Authorities.

Other than the first Quarterly License Fee, which shall be due within fifteen (15) days from the Effective Date, Sanuwave shall pay to Celularity each Quarterly License Fee for each Launch Year Quarter due and payable ten (10) days prior to the first day of each Launch Year Quarter.
 
6.2. Royalties.
 
(a) Royalty Rates. Sanuwave shall pay to Celularity royalties for each Unit, on a Product-by-Product basis, as set forth on Schedule 6.2; provided that if a Market Condition Change occurs in a Launch Year Quarter that royalties are due and payable, the Parties shall negotiate and mutually agree upon an alternative royalty rate in accordance with Section 6.3 below.
 
(b) Royalty Term. Royalties shall be due under this Section 6.3 during the period of time beginning from the Effective Date until the termination or expiration of this Agreement in accordance with Article 11, below, including through any Sell-Off Period (if applicable) in accordance with Section 11.7(c) (the “Royalty Term”).
 
(c) Biovance Royalty Credit. Sanuwave shall be provided a credit equal to the total License Fee for each Launch Year Quarter equal to the Quarterly License Fee actually paid by Sanuwave to Celularity pursuant to Section 6.1 (each, a “Royalty Credit”). Each Royalty Credit shall be deducted from the total royalty payment owed to Celularity by Sanuwave for each Biovance Unit pursuant to Section 6.2(d). For the avoidance of doubt, the Royalty Credit shall not be deduced from the royalty payments owed for Interfyl (as described in Schedule 6.2) sold by Sanuwave.
 
(d) Reports and Royalty Payments. Within thirty (30) days following the end of each Launch Year Quarter, Sanuwave shall provide Celularity with a report containing the following information for the applicable Launch Year Quarter on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis: (i) the number of sales of such Licensed Product by Sanuwave and its Affiliates in the Territory for each Unit, and (ii) a calculation of the royalty payment due on such sales. Contemporaneously with the delivery of the applicable quarterly report, Sanuwave shall pay in Dollars all amounts due to Celularity pursuant to Section 6.3(a) for such Launch Year Quarter, less the Royalty Credit pursuant to Section 6.2(c).
 
6.3. Market Condition Change. In the event of a Market Condition Change, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith and mutually agree upon an alternative (i) Quarterly License Fee for a Launch Year and (ii) Minimum Sales Threshold (as defined below) to account for such Market Condition Change (the “Market Condition Financial Terms”), provided that unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, such Market Condition Financial Terms shall not be reduced by more than fifty percent (50%) of the then-current financial terms set forth in this Article 6 and provided further that, once such Market Condition Change is cured, the Market Condition Financial Terms shall automatically expire as of the end of the calendar year in which the Market Condition Change occurred, and the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 6 shall control. Notwithstanding the above, during the COVID-19 Period, the Parties shall meet (whether physically or virtually) and confer to re-evaluate in good faith the Minimum Sales Thresholds (as defined in Section 11.2(b)), the Quarterly License Fees, the Royalties, forecasts and other payments due hereunder once every six months and appropriately adjust such payments and forecasts to reflect the impact of COVID-19 outbreak on Sanuwave’s actual and potential sales of the Licensed Products.
 
 
12
 
 
6.4 Payment Method; Late Payments. All payments due hereunder shall be made in Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account in the USA designated by the payee Party. If a Party does not receive payment of any undisputed sum due to it on or before the due date, simple interest shall thereafter accrue on the sum due until the date of payment at the per annum rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) over the then-current prime rate reported in The Wall Street Journal or the maximum rate allowable by applicable Laws, whichever is lower. For clarity, in addition to all other remedies available to Celularity, Sanuwave’s exclusivity rights provided in Section 2.2(b) shall be suspended for failure to timely pay the undisputed License Fees pursuant to Section 6.1 and such breach has not been cured within ninety (90) days of the date for which such payment was due to Celularity and shall only be resumed upon Sanuwave’s full payment of such undisputed License Fees.
 
6.5 Records. Sanuwave and its Affiliates shall maintain complete and accurate records in reasonably sufficient detail to permit Celularity to confirm the accuracy of the calculation of royalty payments. Celularity shall have the right to audit such records in accordance with Section 6.6.
 
6.6 Audits. For a period of two (2) years from the end of the Launch Year in which a payment was due hereunder, upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice, Sanuwave (the “Audited Party”) shall (and shall require that its Affiliates) make such records relating to such payment available, during regular business hours and not more often than once each Launch Year, for examination by an independent certified public accountant selected by Celularity (the “Auditing Party”), for the purposes of verifying compliance with this Agreement and the accuracy of the financial reports and/or invoices furnished pursuant to this Agreement. The results of any such audit shall be shared by the auditor with both Parties and shall be considered Confidential Information of both Parties. Any amounts shown to be owed to the other shall be paid within thirty (30) days from the auditor’s report, plus interest (as set forth in Section 6.4) from the original due date. The Auditing Party shall bear the full cost of such audit unless such audit discloses a deficiency in the Audited Party’s payments of greater than five percent (5.0%) (i.e., an under-payment by Sanuwave pursuant to Section 6.2), in which case the Audited Party shall bear the full cost of such audit.
 
6.7 Taxes.
 
(a) Taxes on Income. Each Party shall be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes imposed on its share of income arising directly or indirectly from the efforts of the Parties under this Agreement.
 
(b) Tax Cooperation. The Parties agree to cooperate with one another and use reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of License Fees, royalties, and other payments made by Sanuwave to Celularity under this Agreement. To the extent Sanuwave is required to deduct and withhold taxes on any payment to Celularity, Sanuwave shall pay the amounts of such taxes to the proper Governmental Authority in a timely manner and promptly transmit to Celularity an official tax certificate or other evidence of such withholding sufficient to enable Celularity to claim such payment of taxes. Celularity shall provide Sanuwave any tax forms that may be reasonably necessary in order for Sanuwave not to withhold tax or to withhold tax at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty. Each Party shall provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by applicable Laws, of withholding taxes, value added taxes, or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such withholding tax or value added tax. Sanuwave shall require its Affiliates in the Territory to cooperate with Celularity in a manner consistent with this Section 6.7(b).
 
6.8 Annual Fee on Medical Device Manufacturers and Importers. The Parties acknowledge that the “Annual Fee on Medical Device Manufacturers and Importers” was signed into United States law with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) in 2010. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Annual Fee on Medical Device Manufacturers and Importers or any similar fee for a drug or biological product is applied to the sale of any Licensed Product by Sanuwave, the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that (a) Sanuwave shall be solely responsible for full payment of such fee; and (b) Sanuwave shall supply Celularity with reasonable documentation supporting the imposition of such fee, including, but not limited to, as applicable, the annual invoice for such fee received from the United States Internal Revenue Service.
 
ARTICLE 7
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MATTERS
 
7.1. Prosecution of Patents.
 
(a)
Celularity Prosecuted Patents.
 
(i) Subject to Section 7.1(a)(ii) below, as between the Parties, Celularity shall have the first right to (and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to) prepare, file, prosecute and maintain the Celularity Patents in the Territory and internationally. The costs of preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of Celularity Patents shall be borne by Celularity.
 
 
13
 
 
(ii) If Celularity decides to cease the prosecution or maintenance of any Celularity Patent after the Effective Date, it shall notify Sanuwave in writing sufficiently in advance (but in no event less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date on which the Celularity Patent would become abandoned) so that Sanuwave may, at its discretion, assume the responsibility for the prosecution or maintenance of such Patent, at Sanuwave’s cost and expense. If Sanuwave assumes the prosecution and maintenance of any Celularity Patent, Celularity will assign to Sanuwave, without further consideration, Celularity’s rights in and to that Celularity Patent for Commercialization whether in or outside the Field or in or outside the Territory.
 
(b) Cooperation. Each Party shall provide the other Party all reasonable assistance and cooperation, at the other Party’s request and expense, in the patent prosecution efforts provided above in this Section 7.1, including providing any necessary powers of attorney and executing any other required documents or instruments for such prosecution.
 
7.2. Inventions Generally. Inventions conceived or reduced to practice in the course of activities performed under this Agreement which relate to a Licensed Product, or relate to or derive from Celularity Know-How, Celularity Patents, Celularity’s Confidential Information or otherwise to Celularity’s biomaterials-related intellectual property (including those which are Improvements to Celularity Know-How, Celularity Patents or otherwise to Celularity’s biomaterials-related intellectual property), by Celularity shall be owned by Celularity (“Celularity Inventions”). The inventions solely developed by Sanuwave that are not Celularity Inventions shall be owned by Sanuwave. New inventions jointly invented by (i) one or more employees or agents of Celularity of its Affiliates or other persons acting under the authority on the other hand and (ii) one or more employees or agents of Sanuwave or its Affiliates or other persons acting under its authority on the other hand, shall be jointly owned by both Parties (“Joint IP”). Inventorship shall be determined by applying the patent laws of the United States, including, in the case of New Inventions jointly invented outside the United States, as if such new inventions were invented in the United States. The Parties shall discuss in good faith the filing, prosecution, maintenance, enforcement, defense of and patent applications relating to such Joint IP, as well as each Party’s right to use, any such Joint IP. In the absence of an agreement of the Parties, each Party shall have the right to practice, use, grant licenses to practice and use, any Joint IP without the other Party’s consent and has no duty to account to the other Party for such practice, use and license; provided, however, that Sanuwave shall not have any rights to Celularity Know-How, Celularity Technology, Celularity Marks, Celularity Patents and/or Celularity’s Confidential Information unless otherwise permitted under this Agreement. Sanuwave hereby makes all assignments to Celularity in order to effect Celularity’s ownership in and to Celularity Inventions, and agrees, at Celularity’s cost and expense, to take all further actions requested by Celularity in order to perfect the foregoing assignment. All rights assigned to Celularity by Sanuwave shall be deemed to be Celularity Know-How or Celularity Patents, as applicable.
 
7.3. Enforcement of Celularity Patents.
 
(a) Notification. If either Party becomes aware of any existing or threatened infringement of the Celularity Patents (an “Infringement”), which infringing activity involves the using, making, importing, offering for sale or selling of any Licensed Product or a competitive product or otherwise adversely affects or is reasonably expected to adversely affect the Commercialization of any Licensed Product, it shall promptly notify the other Party in writing to that effect and the Parties shall consult with each other regarding any actions to be taken with respect to such Infringement.
 
(b) Actions Controlled by Celularity; Sanuwave’s Back-Up Enforcement Right. Celularity shall have the first right to bring an appropriate suit or take other action against any Third Party engaged in any Infringement, at Celularity’s cost and expense. If, after its receipt or delivery of notice thereof under Section 7.3(a), Celularity (i) notifies Sanuwave that it will not bring any claim, suit or action to prevent or abate such Infringement or (ii) fails to commence a suit to prevent or abate such Infringement within one hundred and eighty (180) days, Sanuwave shall have the right, but not the obligation, to commence a suit or take action to prevent or abate such Infringement under the Celularity Patents at its own cost and expense. Expenses of, and recoveries on, suits under this Section 7.3(b) shall be handled as provided in Section 7.3(e).
 
(c) Collaboration. Each Party shall provide to the enforcing Party reasonable assistance in such enforcement, at such enforcing Party’s request and expense, including joining such action as a party plaintiff if required by applicable Laws to pursue such action. The enforcing Party shall keep the other Party regularly informed of the status and progress of such enforcement efforts and shall reasonably consider the other Party’s comments on any such efforts. The enforcing Party shall consult with the other Party as to any important aspects of such enforcement, including determination of litigation strategy and filing of material papers to the competent court. The non-enforcing Party shall be entitled to separate representation in such matter by counsel of its own choice and at its own expense, but such Party shall at all times cooperate fully with the enforcing Party.
 
(d) Settlement. Neither Party shall settle any claim, suit or action that it brings under Section 7.3(b) in a manner that would negatively impact the applicable Celularity Patents (e.g., shorten the life of such Patents or narrow their scope) without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.
 
(e) Expenses and Recoveries. The term “Revenue” includes all fees, minimum royalties, payments, compensation, or consideration of any kind (including without limitation in-kind payments, forbearance in connection with settlement, equity amounts taken in lieu of cash, or discounts below fair market value of equity) received by either Party or its Affiliates, without regard to which entity pays, transfers or otherwise provides the Revenue, or how the Revenue is structured, denominated, or paid transferred or provided. The enforcing Party bringing a claim, suit or action under Section 7.3(b) shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred by such Party as a result of such claim, suit or action. If such Party receives Revenue in such claim, suit or action, such Revenue shall be allocated first to the reimbursement of any expenses incurred by the Parties in such litigation (including, for this purpose, a reasonable allocation of expenses of internal counsel), and any remaining amounts shall be allocated as follows: (i) if Celularity is the Party bringing the suit, then the rest of the remaining recovery shall be allocated to Celularity; and (ii) if instead Sanuwave exercised its back-up right to enforce, then the rest of the remaining recovery shall be allocated to Celularity.
 
7.4. Infringement of Third-Party Rights in the Territory.
 
(a) If any Licensed Product Commercialized by or on behalf of Sanuwave becomes the subject of a Third Party claim or assertion of infringement of such Third Party’s intellectual property, including any Patent, issued in the Territory, Sanuwave shall promptly notify Celularity and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith and agree on and enter into a “common interest agreement” wherein the Parties agree to their shared, mutual interest in the outcome of such potential dispute, and thereafter, the Parties shall promptly meet to consider the claim or assertion and the appropriate course of action. Subject to Sections 2.4 and 12.5, Celularity shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend any such infringement claim, provided that all costs and expenses relating to, and arising from, the defense of any such infringement claim shall be divided equally between the Parties. Sanuwave shall provide all reasonable assistance to Celularity and reasonably cooperate in the defense of any such action. At each quarterly JSC meeting, Celularity shall provide to Sanuwave an update on the status and defense of such infringement claim during the previous calendar quarter and any other information with respect thereto as reasonably requested by Sanuwave.
 
(b) Celularity shall not settle or consent to judgment of any infringement claim without the prior written consent of Sanuwave, such consent not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned, or withheld; provided, however, that if such settlement or consent to judgment does not impose any liability on, or materially affect the rights or obligations of, Sanuwave, Celularity shall have the right to settle such claim or consent to judgment (e.g., a monetary liability that is fully satisfied by Celularity on behalf of Sanuwave). In the event the Parties cannot reach consensus within five (5) Business Days after they have met and attempted to reach consensus regarding settlement of any such infringement claim (an “Infringement Dispute”), the settlement of such Infringement Dispute shall be referred to the JSC for resolution; provided, however, that the provisions of Section 3.1(c)(ii) shall not apply with respect to that particular matter and the Parties’ resolution thereof.

7.5. Patent Marking. Sanuwave and its Affiliates shall mark each Licensed Product marketed and sold by Sanuwave or its Affiliates hereunder with appropriate patent numbers or indicia.
 
7.6. Trademarks.
 
(a) Product Marks. Sanuwave shall have the right to brand the Licensed Products and create all Licensed Product labels using Sanuwave-related trademarks and any other trademarks and trade names it determines appropriate (including the Celularity Marks as set forth in Section 7.6(b) below) for the Licensed Products, which may vary by country or within a country (collectively, the “Product Marks”). The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Licensed Products shall be co-branded as mutually agreed upon in writing by the Parties and that Sanuwave shall give the proper attribution on each Licensed Product to Celularity as provider of the Celularity Technology or as otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Parties. The Parties shall mutually agree upon the form and substance of such attribution rights. In the event that Sanuwave desires to brand a Licensed Product using an alternative name, Sanuwave shall first propose such alternative name to Celularity and Celularity may provide comments on the alternative name, which shall be considered in good faith by Sanuwave. For clarity, Sanuwave has the right to brand Biovance and Interfyl using alternative names and Sanuwave’s Product Marks (excluding the Celularity Marks) provided that Sanuwave shall pay for the costs associated with such branding, including design, labor and material costs and expenses.
 
(b) Celularity Marks. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Celularity hereby grants to Sanuwave an exclusive license to use and display (with the right to grant sublicenses to any (i) sublicensees permitted under Section 2.3 and (ii) distributors and other Third Parties who perform activities directly on behalf of Sanuwave, provided that such sublicense is incidental to the activities performed by such Third Party), during the Term and in the Field in the Territory, to the Biovance and/or Interfyl trademark, as applicable, as set forth in Exhibit B, to identify the Licensed Products (each, a “Celularity Mark” and collectively, the “Celularity Marks”), (i) on the Licensed Product itself, (ii) as part of the Product Marks and (iii) on any other labels, Promotional Materials or Regulatory Materials used in connection with any Licensed Product, provided that if Sanuwave, upon the consent of Celularity, brings an enforcement action with respect to any Celularity Mark, Sanuwave shall reimburse Celularity for the expenses Celularity reasonably incurs in connection therewith (including, without limitation, costs associated with hiring consultants, attorneys’ fees and preparation and filing of any applications, renewals or other documentation with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, foreign counterparts, or other relevant agency). Sanuwave shall give reasonable prior advance notice to Celularity regarding any use or display of the Celularity Marks and shall provide Celularity with a sample embodying such use or display, for Celularity’s prior review and approval to ensure such use or display complies with Celularity’s reasonable trademark guidelines, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Sanuwave shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to follow Celularity’s reasonable trademark guidelines at all times as to the use of the Celularity Marks. If Celularity changes such trademark guidelines: (x) Celularity shall, if practical, provide Sanuwave with at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such changes, (y) such changes shall not apply to any materials that are in inventory or on order as of the effective date of such notice and (z) Sanuwave shall be solely responsible for any expense of implementing such changes, including on packaging, promotional materials and other items if such changes are required by Law, and if such changes are not required by Law, each Party shall bear equal responsibility for any expense of implementing such changes. Other than as expressly set forth herein, use of the Celularity Marks shall not confer on Sanuwave any right to or interest in such trademark, and Sanuwave acknowledges and agrees that all use of the Celularity Marks and the goodwill generated thereby shall inure solely to the benefit of Celularity. Sanuwave shall not use, adopt, file, register, seek to register or take any other action to use or establish rights in any mark anywhere in the world which is comprised of, derivative of, a combination with, or otherwise confusingly similar to, any Celularity Mark or file any application to register any trademark or trade name that is confusingly similar to the Celularity Marks.
 
(c) Ownership; No Challenge. Subject to Section 7.6(b), above, Sanuwave shall own all right, title and interest in and to the Product Marks (excluding the Celularity Marks). All use of the Product Marks (excluding the Celularity Marks) and the goodwill generated thereby shall inure solely to the benefit of Sanuwave. Other than in connection with the Celularity Marks, Celularity shall not use, adopt, file, register, seek to register, or take any other action to use or establish rights in any mark anywhere in the world which is comprised of, derivative of, a combination with, or otherwise confusingly similar to, any Product Mark. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 7.6(b) above, this Section 7.6(c) does not grant Sanuwave any right to or interest in the Celularity Marks, and Sanuwave acknowledges and agrees that all use of the Celularity Marks and the goodwill generated thereby shall inure solely to the benefit of Celularity.

17
 
 
10.2. Authorized Disclosure. Nothing herein shall preclude a Party from disclosing the Confidential Information of the other Party to the extent:
 
(a) such disclosure is reasonably necessary (i) for the filing or prosecuting of Patents as contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) to comply with the requirement of Regulatory Authorities with respect to obtaining and maintaining Regulatory Clearance and/or Approval (or any pricing and reimbursement approvals) of any Licensed Product; or (iii) for prosecuting or defending litigations as contemplated by this Agreement;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Party is required to make a disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to any of Sections 10.2(a) through 10.2(d), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of such required disclosure and to the extent commercially reasonable, shall use reasonable efforts to obtain, or to assist the other Party in obtaining, a protective order preventing or limiting the required disclosure.
 
10.3. Return of Confidential Information. Promptly after the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason, each Party shall return to the other Party all tangible manifestations of such other Party’s Confidential Information at that time in the possession of the receiving Party.

(a) The Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement (including without limitation any exhibits and schedules hereto) shall be considered Confidential Information of each Party, subject to the special authorized disclosure provisions set forth in Section 10.2 and this Section 10.4.
 
(b) If either Party desires to make a public announcement concerning the material terms of this Agreement, such Party shall give reasonable prior advance notice of the proposed text of such announcement to the other Party for its prior review and approval (except as otherwise provided herein), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

In the event of any such filing, each Party shall provide the other Party with a copy of this Agreement marked to show provisions for which such Party intends to seek confidential treatment and shall reasonably consider and incorporate the other Party’s comments thereon to the extent consistent with the legal requirements, with respect to the filing Party, governing disclosure of material agreements and material information that must be publicly filed.

The other Party shall provide the Party seeking publication with its comments in writing, if any, within twenty (20) days (or within five (5) days in the case of abstracts and media presentations) after receipt of such proposed publication. The Party seeking publication shall consider in good faith any comments thereto provided by the other Party and shall comply with the other Party’s reasonable request to remove any and all of such other Party’s Confidential Information from the proposed publication. In addition, the Party seeking publication shall delay the submission for a period up to sixty (60) days in the event that the other Party can demonstrate reasonable need for such delay in order to accommodate the preparation and filing of a patent application. If the other Party fails to provide its comments to the Party seeking publication within such twenty (20) day period (or five (5) day period, as the case may be), such other Party shall be deemed not to have any comments, and the Party seeking publication shall be free to publish in accordance with this Section 10.5 after the thirty (30) day period (or ten (10) day period, as the case may be) has elapsed. The Party seeking publication shall provide the other Party a copy of the publication at the time of the submission.

ARTICLE 11
TERM AND TERMINATION
 
11.1. Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of this Article 11, shall continue for a period of five (5) years (the “Initial Term”). Upon expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement will automatically renew for additional one (1) year periods (each period, a “Renewal Term” and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”) unless either Party gives written notice of termination at least one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the then-current term, which shall cause this Agreement to terminate at the end of the then-current term.
 
11.2. Termination by Celularity.
 
(a) For Patent Challenge. Celularity may terminate this Agreement in its entirety immediately upon written notice to Sanuwave if Sanuwave or its Affiliates, directly or through the assistance of a Third Party, challenges the validity, enforceability or scope of any Celularity Patent anywhere in the world.
 
(b) For Failure to Meet Thresholds.
 
(i) In the event that gross sales of all Licensed Products during the second Launch Year are less than (x) Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) or alternatively, (y) the new gross sales volume agreed to by the Parties for the Licensed Products pursuant to Section 6.3, as the case may be (the “Minimum Sales Threshold”), Celularity shall have the right to terminate the Agreement in its entirety, on ninety (90) days’ written notice to Sanuwave (a “Sales Threshold Default”), which notice of such Sales Threshold Default must be delivered to Sanuwave within thirty (30) calendar days following the delivery of the royalty report for the fourth Launch Year Quarter of the second Launch Year (a “Sales Threshold Default Notice”). Upon receipt of a Sales Threshold Default Notice, Sanuwave may cure the Sales Threshold Default solely for the second Launch Year by (i) paying to Celularity an amount equal to the difference between the Quarterly License Fees for the four Launch Year Quarters of the second Launch Year and the aggregate royalties which would be due to Celularity if gross annual sales of all the Licensed Products for the second Launch Year were Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) (or the alternative Minimum Sales Threshold, as the case may be) or (ii) by demonstrating with reasonable documentation that the gross annual sales of all Licensed Products will reach an annualized run rate of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) (or the alternative Minimum Sales Threshold for all Licensed Products) as of the second Launch Year Quarter of the third Launch Year.
 
(ii) In the event gross annual sales of all Licensed Products for the third Launch Year or any subsequent Launch Year thereafter are less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (or the alternative Minimum Sales Threshold for all Licensed Products, as the case may be) each of Celularity and Sanuwave shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon six months’ prior written notice to the other Party, which notice of such termination must be delivered to the other Party within ninety (90) calendar days following the delivery of the royalty report for the fourth Launch Year Quarter of the applicable Launch Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that in the third Launch Year the gross annual sales of all the Licensed Products are less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (or the alternative Minimum Sales Threshold for all the Licensed Products, as the case may be), the Parties may discuss alternative options to the termination of this Agreement with respect to the Licensed Products, including, without limitation, the sale of all rights in and to the Licensed Products to Sanuwave.
 
11.3. Termination for Breach.
 
(a) Subject to Section 11.3(b), each Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon written notice to the other Party if the other Party materially breaches its obligations under this Agreement (including, but not limited to, failure of a Party to exert Commercially Reasonable Efforts in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement) and, after receiving written notice identifying such material breach in reasonable detail, fails to cure such material breach within sixty (60) days from the date of such notice.
 
(b) If the alleged breaching Party disputes in good faith the existence or materiality of a breach specified in a notice provided by the other Party in accordance with Section 11.3(a), and such alleged breaching Party provides the other Party notice of such dispute within the applicable cure period, then the non-breaching Party shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under Section 11.3(a) unless and until an arbitrator, in accordance with Article 12, has determined that the alleged breaching Party has materially breached the Agreement and such breaching Party fails to cure such breach within the applicable cure period (measured as commencing after the arbitrator’s decision). It is understood and agreed that during the pendency of such dispute, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect and the Parties shall continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder.
 
11.4. Termination for Bankruptcy. To the extent permitted under applicable Laws, if at any time during the Term of this Agreement, an Event of Bankruptcy (as defined below) relating to either Party (the “Bankrupt Party”) occurs, the other Party (the “Non-Bankrupt Party”) shall have, in addition to all other legal and equitable rights and remedies available hereunder, the option to terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days written notice to the Bankrupt Party. It is agreed and understood that if the Non-Bankrupt Party does not elect to terminate this Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event of Bankruptcy, except as may otherwise be agreed with the trustee or receiver appointed to manage the affairs of the Bankrupt Party, the Non-Bankrupt Party shall continue to make all payments required of it under this Agreement as if the Event of Bankruptcy had not occurred, and the Bankrupt Party shall not have the right to terminate any license granted herein.

11.5. Termination for Safety, Legal or Economic Risks. Either Party may terminate this Agreement on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, or in the entirety, immediately upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other Party if a Party is advised in writing by its outside legal counsel that it is not advisable for such Party to continue the Commercialization of such Licensed Product in the Territory to the extent permitted by this Agreement as a result of an actual, threatened or perceived significant safety, legal or economic risk regarding such Licensed Product as the result of any Law, decree, resolution, Liabilities resulting from any Claim, or any decision of a Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority or change in the interpretation of any current Law, decree, resolution or decision by a Governmental Authority or Regulatory Authority, provided that a Party may only terminate this Agreement in the entirety if the actual, threatened or perceived significant safety, legal or economic risk relates to the Licensed Products as a whole.
 
 
19
 
 
11.6. Termination for Infringement. This Agreement may be terminated by a non-defaulting Party solely with respect to a Licensed Product upon the issuance of a final order or decree issued in a bona fide proceeding by or before a competent judicial authority that such a Licensed Product infringed the intellectual property rights of a Third Party, if, after receiving such issuance of a final order or decree of infringement, the other Party who is obligated under the applicable laws or this Agreement to cure the infringement, as applicable, fails to or is unable to cure such infringement within sixty (60) days from the date of issuance.
 
11.7. Effects of Expiration or Early Termination.
 
(a) General. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement (i) all licenses and rights granted to Sanuwave under Section 2.1 of this Agreement or with respect to each Licensed Product, as applicable, shall terminate, (ii) Sanuwave shall immediately transfer and assign to Celularity or its designee all materials, Know-How, Regulatory Materials, licenses, Third Party agreements and other items as are reasonably necessary for Celularity to continue the Commercialization of the Licensed Product(s) and (iii) Sanuwave shall immediately cease all sales, marketing and distribution of the Licensed Product(s), subject to Section 11.7(c), below.
 
(b) Additional Effects of Termination. Without limiting the generality of Section 11.7(a), the following rights and consequences shall apply upon termination:
 
(i) Regulatory Materials; Data. To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, Sanuwave shall transfer and assign to Celularity all Regulatory Materials to extent such Regulatory Materials are not owned by Celularity, and related data and Know-How relating to the Licensed Product(s) and shall treat the foregoing as Confidential Information of Celularity (and not of Sanuwave) under Article 10; provided that Sanuwave shall be allowed to retain any such materials that a Regulatory Authority requires Sanuwave to retain under applicable Laws.
 
(ii)           Sanuwave Assignment. Sanuwave hereby irrevocably assigns to Celularity, effective upon such Termination by Celularity for Cause, a non-exclusive, fully paid, worldwide, fully transferrable, irrevocable license (with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers) to all intellectual property, including all Patents and Know-How (i) Controlled by Sanuwave (or its Affiliates) as of the effective date of such termination and (ii) reasonably necessary or useful for the Commercialization of the Licensed Product(s) in the Field.
 
(iii)           Trademarks. Sanuwave shall assign to Celularity all right, title and interest in and to the Product Marks (excluding any such marks that include, in whole or part, any corporate name or logo of Sanuwave) throughout the Territory.
 
(iv)           Transition Assistance. In the event this Agreement terminates other than for Celularity’s breach for the Agreement in accordance with Section 11.3(a), Sanuwave shall provide such assistance, at no cost to Celularity, for a period of ninety (90) days as may be reasonably necessary or useful for Celularity to continue Commercializing the Licensed Product(s) throughout the Territory, including assigning or amending as appropriate, upon request of Celularity, any agreements or arrangements with Third Party vendors to Commercialize the Licensed Product(s). To the extent that any such contract between Sanuwave and a Third Party is not assignable to Celularity, Sanuwave shall reasonably cooperate with Celularity to arrange to continue to provide such services for a reasonable time after termination. Sanuwave shall not, during such applicable notice period, take any action that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the further Commercialization of any Licensed Product.
 
(v)           Inventories. Subject to Section 11.7(c) below, in the event this Agreement terminates other than for Celularity’s breach for the Agreement in accordance with Section 11.3(a), then Celularity shall have the right to purchase from Sanuwave any and all of the inventory of the Licensed Product(s) held by Sanuwave as of the effective date of termination at a price equal to Sanuwave’s actual cost to acquire of such inventory from Celularity. Celularity shall notify Sanuwave within thirty (30) days after the effective date of termination whether Celularity elects to exercise such right.
 
(vi)           Termination for Celularity Breach
 
a. During the Initial Term, upon termination of this Agreement in its entirety by Sanuwave pursuant to Section 11.3 due to Celularity’s breach of this Agreement which is not caused by Celularity’s fraud or criminal misconduct, as Sanuwave’s sole and exclusive remedy (in addition to such termination), Celularity shall pay to Sanuwave, as liquidated damages, one of the following amounts depending upon the effective date of such termination: (1) $9,000,000 if this Agreement terminates before the first anniversary of the Effective Date; (B) $7,000,000 if this Agreement terminates on or after the first anniversary of the Effective Date and before the second anniversary of the Effective Date; (3) $5,000,000 if this Agreement terminates on or after the second anniversary of the Effective Date and before the third anniversary of the Effective Date; (4) $3,000,000 if this Agreement terminates on or after the third anniversary of the Effective Date and before the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date; or (5) $2,000,000 if this Agreement terminates on or after the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date and before the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date. The foregoing shall not apply to any termination of this Agreement for Celularity’s breach pursuant to Section 11.3 during a Renewal Term; provided, however, nothing in this Agreement shall affect Sanuwave’s right to enforce any remedies available to it at law, in equity, by statute, or by contract with respect to such breach of Celularity during such Renewal Term.
 
b. Notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 11.7(b)(vi)(a), if this Agreement terminates during the Initial Term while Sanuwave otherwise is meeting its financial commitments to Celularity, because Celularity grants an exclusive license under Celularity Technology to any Third Party to market and commercialize any Licensed Product or because Celularity is marketing and commercializing any Licensed Product internally in the Territory, then Sanuwave’s liquidated damages remedy shall be as follows: Sanuwave’s revenues under this Agreement for the twelve (12) month period ending on the last day of the month prior to termination multiplied by its Market Revenue Multiple. “Market Revenue Multiple” shall mean the market capitalization for Sanuwave, based on the last trading day for its common stock on the date prior to the termination date, divided by all of its revenue as most recently reported publicly by Sanuwave; provided, however, that if Sanuwave is no longer trading as a public company, the Market Revenue Multiple shall be the price paid by the acquirer of Sanuwave in such a transaction.
 
(c)           Sanuwave’s Right to Sell Off. In the event this Agreement terminates other than for Sanuwave’s breach of the Agreement in accordance with Section 11.3(a), then Celularity, at its option, shall (i) have the right to purchase from Sanuwave any and all of the inventory of Licensed Products held by Sanuwave as of the effective date of termination in accordance with the terms of Section 11.7(b), above, or (ii) permit Sanuwave, for a period of ninety days (90) from the effective date of termination, to market, distribute, offer to sell and sell off then-existing inventory of Licensed Products then on hand (the period referred to in this Section 11.7(c)(ii), the “Sell-Off Period”). If Celularity elects to allow Sanuwave to sell off its then-existing inventory of Licensed Products in accordance with Section 11.7(c)(ii), following the expiration of the Sell Off Period, Sanuwave shall immediately cease all sales, marketing and distribution of the then-existing inventory Licensed Products on hand as of the end of such Sell-Off Period, and Celularity, at its option, shall (x) have the right to purchase from Sanuwave any and all of the inventory of Licensed Products held by Sanuwave as of the last date of the Sell-Off Period at a price equal to Sanuwave’s actual cost to acquire or manufacture such inventory, or (y) instruct Sanuwave to destroy or donate (to a recognized not-for-profit charitable organization, provided however, that such inventory is not further re-sold or distributed for profit) such remaining inventory.
 
For clarity, Sanuwave shall continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Commercialization of Licensed Products until the effective date of termination and shall not modify in any material respects such activities from past practices during such period.

13.2. Force Majeure.

The remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, unless the severed provision is essential and material to the rights or benefits received by either Party. In such event, the Parties shall negotiate, in good faith, and substitute a valid and enforceable provision or agreement that most nearly implements the Parties’ intent in entering into this Agreement.
 
13.9. No Waiver. No provision of this Agreement can be waived except by the express written consent of the Party waiving compliance.
