Products and Services are considered “sold” when billed out or invoiced or, in the event such Products are not billed out or invoiced, when the consideration for sale of the Products is received. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Net Sales shall not include, and shall be deemed zero with respect to, (i) Products used by MPI, its Affiliates, or Sublicensees for their internal use, (ii) the distribution of reasonable quantities of promotional samples of Products, (iii) Products provided for clinical trials or research, development, or evaluation purposes, or (iv) Products provided by or on behalf of MPI, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee to MPI, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee for purposes of resale, provided such resale is subject to a payments due BVI under Section 3.2(a) or Section 3.2(b) (as applicable) of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that any Product includes APIs, drug delivery devices, or other technologies for which rights are not included in the licenses or sublicenses granted under this Agreement (“Other Technologies”) but, with respect to the Other Technologies, may each or collectively form the basis for a product separate from a Product (a “Combination Product”), the Net Sales of such Combination Product in a particular country, for the purposes of determining royalty payments due to BVI hereunder, shall be determined by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product in such country by the fraction A/(A+B), where A is the weighted average sale price of the Product without the Other Technologies (the “Basic Product”) when sold separately in finished form in such country, and B is the weighted average sale price(s) of product(s) including the Other Technologies (such products, “Other Products”) sold separately in finished form in such country (if there is more than one Other Product, B shall equal the sum of all such Other Products’ weighted average sale prices in such country).

In the event that, with respect to any Combination Product sold in a particular country, the weighted average sale price of the Basic Product in such country can be determined but the weighted average sale price(s) of the Other Product(s) in such country cannot be determined, Net Sales for purposes of determining royalty payments for such Combination Product in such country shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product in such country by the fraction A/C where A is the weighted average sale price of the Basic Product when sold separately in finished form in such country and C is the weighted average sale price of the Combination Product in such country.

In the event that, with respect to any Combination Product sold in a particular country, the weighted average sale price(s) of the Other Product(s) in such country can be determined but the weighted average sale price of the Basic Product cannot be determined, Net Sales for purposes of determining royalty payments shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by the formula one (1) minus (B/C) (which may also be written as 1- (B/C)), where B is the weighted average sale price(s) of the Other Product(s) when sold separately in finished form in such country and C is the weighted average sale price of the Combination Product in such country (if there is more than one Other Product, B shall equal the sum of all such Other Products’ weighted average sale prices in such country).

In the event that, with respect to any Combination Product sold in a particular country, the weighted average sale price(s) in such country of neither the Basic Product nor the Other Product(s) in the Combination Product can be determined, the Net Sales of the Combination Product shall, for the purposes of determining royalty payments with respect to such Combination Product, be commercially reasonable and determined by good faith negotiation between MPI and BVI consistent with the ratios and related principles referenced above and based on the relative value of the Technology and the Other Technologies included in such Combination Product.

The weighted average sale price for a Basic Product, Other Product(s), or Combination Product in a particular country shall be calculated once for each Calendar Year and such price shall be used during all applicable royalty reporting periods for such Calendar Year. When determining the weighted average sale price of a Basic Product, Other Product(s), or Combination Product in a particular country, the weighted average sale price shall be calculated by dividing the sales dollars by the units of Basic Product, Combination Product, or Other Product sold in such country during the twelve (12) months (or the number of months sold in a partial Calendar Year) of that Calendar Year for the respective Basic Product, Other Product(s), or Combination Product. For each Calendar Year, a reasonably forecasted weighted average sale price will be used for the Basic Product, Other Product(s), or Combination Product, which forecasted weighted average sale price will be, for each Calendar Year other than the initial Calendar Year (or portion thereof) during which the Combination Product is sold, no less than the weighted average sale price for the Basic Product, Other Product(s), or Combination Product in a particular country calculated for the preceding Calendar Year. Any over or under payment due to a difference between forecasted and actual weighted average sale prices will be paid or credited in the payment due with respect to the following Calendar Year.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the case of discounts on “bundles” of separate products or services which include Products (such “bundles” including but not limited to (i) contingent arrangements involving drugs that share the same NDC (whether the same or different package sizes), drugs with different NDCs, or drugs and other products or services, (ii) circumstances in which a discount is conditioned on the achievement of some other performance requirement for the Product or other product or service (e.g. achievement of market share or placement on a formulary tier), or (iii) otherwise where the resulting price concessions or discounts are greater than those which would have been available had the bundled products or services been purchased separately or outside the bundled arrangement), MPI may calculate Net Sales and royalties due hereunder by applying a discount to the price of a Product equal to the average percentage discount of all products or services of MPI, its Affiliate(s), or Sublicensee(s) in a particular “bundle”, calculated as follows:

where X equals the total discounted price of a particular “bundle” of products or services, and Y equals the sum of the undiscounted bona fide list prices of each unit of every product or service in such “bundle”. MPI shall provide BVI documentation reasonably supporting such average discount with respect to each “bundle.” If a Product in a “bundle” is not sold separately, and no bona fide list price exists for such Product, MPI and BVI shall, for purposes of calculating Net Sales and royalties due hereunder, negotiate in good faith a reasonable imputed list price for such Product and Net Sales with respect thereto shall be based on such imputed list price.

1.33    “Paragraph IV Certification” means a certification pursuant to the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (Public Law 98-417), as amended, which shall include but not be limited to any such certification pursuant to 21 U.S.C. §355(b)(2)(A)(iv) or 21 U.S.C. §355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV), or any reasonably similar or equivalent certification or notice in the United States or any jurisdiction outside the United States, included in (or made with respect to or in connection with) a regulatory filing concerning a Product or Competing Product and challenging the validity, infringement, or enforceability of any BVI Patent(s).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent MPI is unable to make a payment or provide a report when due as a result of a Sublicensee failing to (i) provide MPI with the information needed for MPI to prepare the reports required under this Section 3.7 or (ii) pay royalties due to MPI for Net Sales accruing during the applicable Calendar Year, MPI shall have up to an additional sixty (60) Calendar Days after the end of the Calendar Year to report to BVI Sublicensee Net Sales for such Calendar Year and to provide the royalty payment due thereon.

3.8    Payment Method. All payments due under this Agreement to BVI shall be made by bank wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by BVI in writing, provided, however, that the portion of the payments due to BVI under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 of this Agreement that are identified in Schedule 3.8 hereto (the “Comerica Payments”) shall be paid to Comerica Bank pursuant to the Consent and Assignment Agreement between Comerica Bank, BVI and MPI dated as of December 16, 2013, and the amount to be paid directly to BVI pursuant to such Sections shall be reduced by the applicable Comerica Payments. Any such payment made to Comerica Bank shall be deemed to be a payment of such amount to BVI hereunder and shall satisfy in full MPI’s obligations to BVI with respect to such payments. All payments hereunder shall be made in the legal currency of the United States.

3.9    Taxes. In the event any tax or similar amount is paid or required to be withheld by MPI or any Affiliate thereof for the benefit of BVI on account of any royalties or other payments payable to BVI under this Agreement, the corresponding amounts payable to BVI shall be reduced by the amount of taxes or similar amounts deducted and withheld, and MPI shall pay the amounts of such taxes or similar amounts to the proper Governmental Authority in a timely manner and promptly transmit to BVI an official tax certificate or other evidence of such tax or other obligations together with proof of payment from the relevant Governmental Authority of all amounts deducted and withheld sufficient to enable BVI to claim such payment of taxes or similar amounts. Any such withholding taxes or similar amounts required under applicable law to be paid or withheld shall be an expense of, and borne solely by, BVI. MPI will provide BVI with, at BVI’s expense, reasonable assistance to enable BVI to recover such taxes or amounts otherwise withheld as permitted by law.

3.10    Sublicenses. For avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that in the event that MPI grants licenses or sublicenses to Third Parties any right under BVI Technology to sell Products, MPI shall include in such licenses or sublicenses an obligation for such Sublicensee to account for and report its sales of Products on a basis reasonably sufficient to enable MPI to pay BVI the royalties due under this Agreement and satisfy MPI’s reporting obligations hereunder.

3.11    Foreign Exchange. With respect to Net Sales invoiced in a currency other than United States dollars, such Net Sales will be converted into the United States dollar equivalent using the average conversion rate existing in the United States (as reported in The Wall Street Journal, New York edition) during the applicable Calendar Year. If The Wall Street Journal ceases to be published, then the rate of exchange to be used shall be that reported in such other business publication of national circulation in the United States on which the Parties reasonably agree.

3.12    Blocked Currency. In each country where the local currency is blocked and cannot be removed from the country, payments under this Agreement arising from activities in that country for which MPI or an Affiliate thereof does not receive payment in United States’ currency, freely useable outside of such country, shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, be paid to BVI in the country in local currency by deposit in a local bank designated by MPI, unless the Parties otherwise mutually agree in writing.

3.13    Interest. If MPI fails to make any payment when due to BVI under this Agreement, then interest shall accrue on the balance due on a daily basis at a rate equal to LIBOR (as published in The Wall Street Journal, New York edition) plus one percent (1%), or at the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is the lower, until MPI meets the full financial obligation due.

3.14    Records; Audits. MPI shall keep or cause to be kept such records as are reasonably required to determine, in a manner, with respect to any financial records, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, the amounts due under this Agreement; such records must be kept for a minimum of three (3) years following the Calendar Year to which such records pertain. At the request (and expense) of BVI, MPI shall permit BVI to engage an independent certified public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to MPI, at reasonable times not more than once a year and upon reasonable notice, to examine only those records as may be necessary to determine, with respect to any Calendar Year ending not more than three (3) years prior to BVI’s request, the correctness or completeness of any royalty report or payment made under this Agreement. BVI shall promptly provide a copy of the results of any such audit or examination to MPI. BVI shall bear the full cost of the performance of any such audit or examination, unless such audit or examination discloses an underpayment exceeding ten

percent (10%) of the amount actually due hereunder with respect to any particular Calendar Year, in which case MPI shall bear the reasonable, documented cost of the performance of such audit or examination. MPI shall promptly pay to BVI the amount of any underpayment of royalties revealed by such an examination and review. Any overpayment by MPI of royalties or any other amount paid to BVI revealed by an examination and review shall, in MPI’s sole discretion, (i) be fully-

creditable against future payments under this Agreement or (ii) refunded to MPI within thirty (30) Calendar Days of its request.

4.4    Contract Assignment. To the extent requested by MPI, BVI shall assign to MPI the contracts identified on Schedule 4.4 or that may be identified in the future hereof and execute all documents and instruments reasonably requested by MPI in connection with such assignment.

4.5    Diligence. MPI shall, during the Term, use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to pursue the Development and Commercialization of a Product. The Parties agree that the efforts of MPI’s Affiliates, Sublicensees, and contractors or consultants of MPI, its Affiliates, or Sublicensees shall constitute the efforts of MPI for purposes of satisfying MPI’s obligations under this Section 4.5. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, MPI shall, on or before the four (4) year anniversary of the Effective Date (a) achieve the Commencement of Phase 2 Clinical Trial for a Product in the Cardiovascular Field under an IND submitted by MPI or its Sublicensee, or (b) pay BVI [***] Dollars ($[***]) which shall be credited towards the Commencement of Phase 2 Clinical Trial Milestone for a Cardiovascular Field. If MPI fails to do so on or before the four (4) year anniversary of the Effective Date, BVI shall have the right to terminate all rights and licenses granted to MPI under this Agreement with respect to the Cardiovascular Field, provided that (i) BVI provides notice of termination to MPI at least 90 days prior to the fourth (4^th) anniversary of the Effective

Date and (ii) MPI does not cure such failure prior to the fourth (4^th) anniversary of the Effective Date. Following such

termination, (x) BVI will reimburse MPI for 50% of all future expenses incurred by MPI or its Sublicensees in connection with the prosecution and maintenance of the Patent Rights and (y) MPI will deduct from payments due to BVI under Section 3.5, 50% of the costs and expenses incurred by MPI and its Sublicensees as of the date of such termination in connection with the prosecution and maintenance of the Patent Rights.

4.6    Joint Steering Committee.

(a)    Establishment. Promptly after execution of this Agreement, the Parties shall establish a joint steering committee to oversee, review and coordinate the activities of the Parties under this Agreement and to facilitate communications between the Parties regarding Development of Products under this Agreement (the “Joint Steering Committee”). Each Party shall name two (2) representatives to the Joint Steering Committee, and either Party may replace any of its representatives to the Joint Steering Committee upon written notice to the other Parties. The representatives will receive no compensation for their service on the Joint Steering Committee.

(c)    Functions. The Joint Steering Committee shall (i) discuss activities conducted under this Agreement with respect to Development of Products under this Agreement, (ii) coordinate the technology transfer for Product; (iii) make recommendations to MPI relating to the pre-clinical and clinical Development strategy; (iv) discuss the ongoing pre-clinical and clinical development of the Product; and (v) assisting the Licensee to prepare pre-clinical and clinical development budgets. The Joint Steering Committee is solely a forum for discussion and shall have no decision making authority, provided, however, that MPI will reasonably consider advice provided to it by the Joint Steering Committee.

4.7    Development Plan and Progress Reports. No later than April 1 of each Calendar Year until the third Calendar Year after the Calendar Year of the First Commercial Sale, MPI shall prepare and provide to BVI and the Joint Steering Committee an annual written plan and strategy describing in reasonable detail MPI’s proposed activities to fulfill its obligations under Section 4.5 of this Agreement during such Calendar Year (each, a “Development Plan”). The Development Plan shall at a minimum contain with respect to the relevant Calendar Year: (a) MPI’s proposed budget dedicated to the development of Products, (b) MPI’ s plans for research, development and commercialization activities for the Products, and (c) MPI’s planned activities regarding sublicensing. This Section 4.7 will not be deemed to create any obligation beyond MPI’ s obligations to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to pursue the Development and Commercialization of a Product under Section 4.5. Each

Development Plan provided by MPI (other than the first Development Plan), shall also include a progress report with respect to the preceding Calendar Year, which shall detail the progress achieved by MPI with respect to the development of Products during the preceding year in furtherance of the Development Plan.

5.1    Prosecution and Maintenance by MPI. MPI shall assume and have primary responsibility for, and use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to pursue, the filing, prosecution, and maintenance of the BVI Patents, at MPI’s sole cost and expense. BVI shall take all actions reasonably requested by MPI, at MPI’s sole cost and expense (other than costs related to Paul Glidden’s time, which shall be compensated as set forth in a separate consulting agreement between Paul Glidden and MPI), in connection with the transition to MPI of such filing, prosecution, and maintenance, including without limitation, facilitating communication with BVI’s patent counsel.

5.2    Abandonment by MPI; Prosecution and Maintenance by BVI. If MPI provides BVI with written notification that it will no longer support or pursue the filing, prosecution, or maintenance of a specified BVI Patent in a particular country, then (A) MPI’s responsibility for such filing, prosecution, or maintenance of such BVI Patent in such country, and the fees and costs related thereto, will terminate on the earlier of (x) the date sixty (60) Calendar Days after BVI’ s receipt of such written notice from MPI or (y) BVI’s assumption of the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such BVI Patent in such country, (B) BVI shall have the right, upon written notice to MPI given during such sixty (60) Calendar Day period, to assume control of, and responsibility for, the filing, prosecution, or maintenance of such BVI Patent in such country, at BVI’s expense, and (C) such BVI Patent shall on the going-forward basis be excluded from the license grant to MPI under Section 2.1.

5.3    Patent Term Extensions. MPI shall promptly notify BVI of the issuance of each Regulatory Approval and, where reasonably and legally possible and reasonably useful or materially valuable in the Commercialization of Products, use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to apply (or cause its Affiliates or Sublicensee(s) to apply) for a patent term extension, adjustment or restoration, supplementary protection certificate, or other form of market exclusivity conferred by Applicable Laws (collectively, “Patent Term Extensions”) in the relevant country(ies) of the Territory. BVI shall, if and as requested by MPI, (i) use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to, assist MPI, its Affiliates, and Sublicensees in obtaining all available Patent Term Extensions and (ii) take all actions necessary to obtain all Patent Term Extensions. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in obtaining Patent Term Extensions wherever and whenever applicable.

6.1    Notice. If either Party becomes aware of any actual, potential, or alleged infringement of any of the rights to BVI Patents granted to MPI under this Agreement with respect to Products, such Party shall give to the other Party prompt and reasonably detailed written notice of such actual, potential, or alleged infringement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

each Party shall notify the other Party within two (2) Business Days of its receipt of, or receipt of notice of, any Paragraph IV Certification.

6.2    Infringement of BVI Patents. With respect to any actual, potential, or alleged infringement of the rights to BVI Patents in the Field, which shall include, to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, any infringement or other claims resulting from, or legal actions or proceedings enabled or permitted by, any Paragraph IV Certification, MPI shall have the first and primary right, but not the obligation, to, at its expense, initiate, prosecute, and control any action or legal proceedings, and/or enter into a settlement, including any declaratory judgment action, with respect thereto. In any such litigation brought by MPI, MPI shall have the right to use and sue in BVI’s name and join BVI as a party to such litigation, and BVI shall cooperate reasonably with respect thereto, as requested by MPI, at MPI’s cost. If, within one hundred eighty (180) Calendar Days of the notice in Section 6.1 (or, in the case of a Paragraph IV Certification, thirty-five (35) Calendar Days from the date of MPI’s receipt of the Paragraph IV Certification or notice thereof from BVI), MPI shall, (i) have been unsuccessful in persuading the actual, potential, or alleged infringer to desist, (ii) shall not have brought and shall not be diligently prosecuting an infringement or other action with respect to such actual, potential, or alleged infringement or Paragraph IV Certification, or (iii) has not entered into settlement discussions with respect to such actual, potential, or alleged infringement or Paragraph IV Certification, or if MPI notifies BVI that it has decided not to undertake any of the foregoing against any such alleged, potential, or actual infringer or Third Party making such Paragraph IV Certification, then BVI shall have the right, at its expense, to bring suit to enforce such BVI Patents against such actual, alleged, or potential infringer, or take action with respect to such Paragraph IV Certification, at its own expense, unless MPI has provided BVI with a reasonable strategic rationale for not taking action to terminate such actual, potential, or alleged infringement or with respect to such Paragraph IV Certification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BVI shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliate thereof or Third Party to, proceed against an alleged infringer of the BVI Patents in the Territory in the Field (1) unless significant damages are reasonably expected to be recovered from the infringer in such proceeding and (2) without first consulting with MPI regarding the strategy for such proceeding and considering in good faith MPI’s comments regarding such proceeding.

6.3    Infringement of Third Party Rights. In the event that a claim of infringement of a Third Party’s Patents is made or brought against either Party with respect to the manufacture, use, sale, or importation of the Product, the Party receiving such claim shall promptly inform the other Party in writing, and the Parties shall consult with each other in order to develop a strategy for addressing the alleged infringement. Each Party shall reasonably cooperate with the other Party, as reasonable requested thereby, in any investigations undertaken to determine any potential infringement. As between the Parties, MPI (and/or its Affiliates and Sublicensees) shall have the first and primary right, but not the obligation, at its own expense (subject to Section 6.6) to defend, control the defense of, and/or settle any such claim against MPI, its Affiliates, or Sublicensees, using counsel of its own choice.

6.4    Litigation Control. The Party pursuing or controlling any action or defense under Section 6.2 or 6.3 (the “Controlling Party”) shall be free to enter into a settlement, consent judgment,

or other voluntary disposition of any such action or defense, provided, however, that (i) the Controlling Party shall consult with the other Party (the “Secondary Party”) prior to

entering into any settlement or voluntary disposition thereof, (ii) any settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary disposition of such actions which (1) subjects the Secondary Party to any non-indemnified liability or obligation or (2) admits fault or wrongdoing on the part of Secondary Party must, in each case, be approved in advance and in writing by the Secondary Party, (iii) any settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary disposition of such actions which materially limits the scope, validity, or enforceability of, or otherwise may adversely affect, any BVI Patents shall not be entered into, consented to, approved, or agreed upon without the other Party’s prior written approval, and (iv) any settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary disposition of such actions that would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the BVI Patents, MPI Patents or ability of MPI to manufacture, Develop or Commercialize Products shall not be entered into, consented to, approved, or agreed upon without MPI’s prior written consent. With respect to clause (ii) or (iii) above in this Section 6.4, the Secondary Party shall provide the Controlling Party notice of its approval or denial of such approval within fifteen (15) Business Days of any request for such approval by the Controlling Party, provided that (X) in the event Secondary Party wishes to deny such approval, such notice shall include a written description summarizing the Secondary Party’s reasonable objections to the proposed settlement, consent judgment, or other voluntary disposition and (Y) Secondary Party shall be deemed to have approved such proposed settlement, consent judgment, or other voluntary disposition in the event it fails to provide such notice within such fifteen (15) Business Day period. Any recovery or damages received by the Controlling Party with respect to the infringement of the rights to BVI Patents granted under this Agreement, or in settlement of any matter subject to Section 6.2 or 6.3, shall be used first to reimburse the Parties for unreimbursed reasonable, documented expenses incurred in connection with such action or settlement, and the remainder shall be split ninety percent (90%) to Controlling Party and ten percent (10%) to Secondary Party Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Secondary Party, at its expense, shall have the right to be represented by counsel of its choice in any proceeding governed by this Section 6.4.

6.5    Reimbursement. Each Party shall invoice the other Party for any reasonable, documented costs incurred that are to be borne by the other Party pursuant to this Section 6. Each Party shall pay the other Party such amounts within thirty (30) Calendar Days of the date of any such invoice.

7.1    Confidentiality Obligations. The Parties agree that, for the Term and for five (5) years thereafter, each Party will keep completely confidential and will not publish, submit for publication or otherwise disclose, and will not use for any purpose except for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement, any Confidential Information of the other Party.

7.2    Authorized Disclosure. Each Party may disclose Confidential Information of the other Party to the extent that such disclosure is:

(a)    made in response to a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that in each case such disclosing Party will, to the extent reasonably practicable, (i) first have given written notice to the other Party and given such other Party a reasonable opportunity to take appropriate action and (ii) cooperate with such other Party as necessary to obtain an appropriate protective order or other protective remedy or treatment; provided, further, that in

each case, the Confidential Information disclosed in response to such court or governmental order will be limited to that information which is legally required to be disclosed in response to such court or governmental order, as determined in good faith by counsel to the Party that is obligated to disclose Confidential Information pursuant to such order;

(b)    otherwise required to be disclosed by any applicable law, rule, or regulation (including, without limitation, the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) or the requirements of any stock exchange to which a Party is subject; provided, however, that the Party that is so required will provide such other Party with written notice of such disclosure reasonably in advance thereof to the extent reasonably practicable and reasonable measures will be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information, including such measures as may be reasonably requested by the disclosing Party with respect to such Confidential Information;

(c)    made by such Party, in connection with the performance of this Agreement, to such Party’s Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees, directors, officers, employees, consultants, representatives or agents, or to other Third Parties, in each case on a need to know basis and solely to use such information for business purposes relevant to and permitted by this Agreement, and provided that each individual and entity to whom such Confidential Information is disclosed is bound in writing to non-use and non-disclosure obligations no less than substantially as restrictive as those set forth in this Agreement and (ii) the Party making such disclosure shall be liable for such Third Parties’ compliance with such obligations; or

7.3    Publicity. Press releases or other similar public communication by either Party not required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation or the requirements of any stock exchange to which a Party is subject and disclosing the existence or terms of this Agreement, or concerning either Party’s performance or exercise of its rights under this Agreement, will require the advance written approval of the other Party, provided that BVI will not unreasonably withhold, condition, or delay any such approval sought by MPI. The foregoing notwithstanding, communications required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation or the requirements of any stock exchange to which a Party is subject, and disclosures of information for which consent has previously been obtained, will not require advance approval, but will be provided to the other Party as soon as practicable after the release or communication thereof, provided that, with respect to any such communications required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation or the requirements of any stock exchange to which a Party is subject, the Party required to make such

disclosure shall, to the extent reasonable practicable and such disclosure does not include information for which consent has previously been obtained, provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such communications.

This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall continue, on a country-by-country and Product-by-Product basis, until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Royalty Term for a particular Product in a particular country or (ii) the effective date of termination pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 (the period from the Effective Date until such expiration or termination, the “Term”). Upon expiration of this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) above with respect to a particular Product and country, MPI and its Affiliates shall have, and are hereby granted, the perpetual, unrestricted, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free, exclusive right, with rights of sublicense, to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, and import such Product in such country in the Field.

8.2    Termination for Material Breach. If either Party materially breaches this Agreement at any time, the non-breaching Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the breaching Party, if such material breach is not cured within ninety (90) Calendar Days (forty-five (45) Calendar Days with respect to undisputed payment defaults) of such written notice or if such breach cannot be reasonably cured within 90 days, but the breaching Party has commenced reasonable actions to cure such breach, then such longer period as may be required to cure such breach provided that the breaching Party continues to diligently cure such breach, and (b) the non-breaching Party provides notice confirming such termination within thirty (30) Calendar Days following the expiration of such ninety (90) or forty-five (45) Calendar Day period, as applicable, without cure of such material breach. The foregoing notwithstanding, if such material breach is cured or remedied or shown to be non-existent or not material within the aforesaid ninety (90) or forty-five (45) Calendar Day period, as applicable, the non-breaching party’s notice(s) hereunder shall be automatically withdrawn and of no effect.

8.3    Termination for Convenience by MPI. This Agreement may be terminated by MPI, in its sole discretion, upon sixty (60) Calendar Days’ written notice to BVI.

8.4    Effects of Termination.

(a)    Upon any termination of this Agreement other than the expiration of this Agreement or a termination of this Agreement by MPI pursuant to Section 8.2, MPI shall cease all Development and Commercialization of the Products, provided that MPI shall have the right, subject to MPI’ s payment of royalties as required under Section 3.2, of selling, within twelve (12) months of the date this Agreement is terminated (the “Termination Date”), any finished Products or Products in inventory or the process of manufacture as of the Termination Date.

(b)    Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event (A) MPI or an Affiliate thereof has entered into any sublicense agreement granting any Third Party rights to Develop and/or Commercialize Products as permitted by this Agreement, (B) this Agreement is

terminated, and (C) such sublicense is in effect as of such termination, such sublicense granted hereunder and such Sublicensee’s rights under such sublicense will survive

such termination, with BVI as the Sublicensee’s direct licensor, provided that such Sublicensee delivers to BVI within ninety (90) Calendar Days after termination of this Agreement a license agreement, executed by such Sublicensee and proposed thereby for execution by BVI, that is consistent with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement with respect to the BVI Technology, as reasonably modified to be no greater in scope than the scope of the sublicense granted to Sublicensee with respect to territory, duration/term of sublicense grant, Products, fields of use, etc. (e.g. if the Sublicensee’s sublicense, as in effect immediately prior to such termination, included rights and obligations only with respect to a particular Product, country, and/or indication, the New License Agreement shall only include rights and obligations with respect to such a particular Product, country, and/or indication) (such a license agreement, a “New License Agreement”), provided, further, that (a) such New License Agreement shall not be required to impose any obligations on such Sublicensee in excess of those obligations of MPI under this Agreement corresponding to such Sublicensee’s rights to BVI Technology, and BVI shall not be entitled to impose any additional obligations on such Sublicensee as a condition to BVI’ s execution of a New License Agreement therewith; and (b) BVI shall not have any obligations to such Sublicensee in excess of those obligations corresponding to, and consistent with, those of BVI set forth in this Agreement with respect to the applicable rights of such Sublicensee to BVI Technology. BVI shall promptly (but in any event, within two Business Days) execute any New License Agreement, provided that all of the conditions thereto for the benefit of BVI in subclauses (a) — (b) above have been materially satisfied, and BVI shall not require, as a condition to its exercise of any New License Agreement, that any Sublicensee assume any obligations or liabilities in connection with the rights to BVI Technology that are greater than the corresponding obligations and liabilities of MPI under this Agreement.

(c)    Upon termination of this Agreement by MPI pursuant to Section 8.3 or BVI pursuant to Section 8.2 where there are no Sublicensees on the Effective Date of such termination, the following shall apply:

(i)    at BVI’ s written request, MPI shall promptly provide to BVI all documents, materials, instruments, records and data (m) generated or developed solely by MPI solely in connection with the Development of the Product during the term of this Agreement, (n) in MPI’ s possession and Control and (o) necessary to make, use, develop, sell or seek regulatory approval to market, solely the Products (provided that MPI shall be allowed to retain one copy) (collectively, “MPI Know-How”), including the following generated or developed solely by MPI and solely in connection with the Development of the Product: (w) all preclinical data, human clinical experience database and any other data or information in its possession and Control that is necessary to make, use, develop, sell or seek regulatory approval to market solely the Product; (x) all Regulatory Approvals and related filings in its possession and Control related solely to the Products; (y) copies of all material Know-How in its possession and Control necessary to make, use, develop, sell or seek regulatory approval to market solely the Products; and (z) copies of all correspondence in its possession and Control with the FDA or equivalent foreign Regulatory Authorities relating solely to the Products;

(ii)    MPI shall provide BVI with a report summarizing its Development activities and the results up to termination;

(iii)    MPI shall be deemed without any further action to have granted to BVI a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license (including the right to grant sublicenses), under the (m) MPI Know-How and (n) Patents Controlled by MPI on the effective date of termination solely covering inventions (x) conceived and reduced to practice by MPI solely in connection with the Development of the Product and (y) necessary to make, use and sell Product, for use by BVI as reasonably necessary to develop, have developed, make, have made, use, have used, offer for sale, sell, have sold, import and have imported the Products.
