8.5 Minimum Annual Royalties

8.5.1 Minimum Annual Royalty Schedules

PEPSICO shall pay SENOMYX minimum annual royalties (“MARs”) for Selected Compound based on the schedules specified below. MARs will be calculated on a per Minimum Annual Royalty Category basis for the 5 Minimum Annual Royalty Categories described below [***].

On a Selected Compound-by-Selected Compound basis, not later than [***] months following the receipt of the first Regulatory Approval a Selected Compound in a Major Country that authorizes the use of the Selected Compound in any Exclusive Product Category, PEPSICO may, upon [***] prior written notice, notify SENOMYX of its election to not pay MARs for the applicable Minimum Annual Royalty Category for such Selected Compound for future periods (a “Conversion Notice”). At the end of such [***] notice period under a Conversion Notice, PEPSICO’s licenses with respect to such Selected Compound under Section 9.3 shall be automatically converted to non-exclusive without any further action by either party and PepsiCo’s obligation to pay MARs for such Selected Compound in its Minimum Royalty Category shall terminate. For avoidance of doubt, any MARs due for a partial Calendar Year will be calculated in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 14.5. During said [***] period, and notwithstanding any conflicting provisions of this Agreement (including Section 7.1), with respect to any Selected Compound for which SENOMYX has received a Conversion Notice SENOMYX shall be free to (i) grant to one or more Third Parties a right to evaluate and perform development activities using such Selected Compound in the Exclusive Product Categories, and to make and have made such Selected Compound for purposes of such evaluation and development activities, and (ii) collaborate and perform research and development activities with or on behalf of a Third Party relating to such Selected Compound; provided, however that Senomyx may not grant to the Third Party any rights to sell such Selected Compound or any non-alcoholic beverage that incorporates such Selected Compound, in the Exclusive Product Categories that is effective before the end of such [***] notice period for the given Selected Compound. After the end of such [***] notice period under a Conversion Notice, the restrictions set forth in Sections 7.1 shall no longer be applicable with respect to such Selected Compound notwithstanding any future election by PEPSICO to pay MARs for another Selected Compound in the same Minimum Annual Royalty Category as would have applied to the earlier Selected Compound for which PEPSICO delivered a Conversion Notice. Such election to deliver a Conversion Notice and conversion to a non-exclusive license for a Selected Compound shall not relieve PEPSICO from its obligations to SENOMYX with respect to such Selected Compound under this Agreement other than the obligation to pay the applicable MARs under this Section 8.5 after the end of such [***] period following a Conversion Notice. Accordingly, for avoidance of doubt, PEPSICO shall continue to be responsible for payment to SENOMYX of any royalties as set forth in Section 8.4.

Unless SENOMYX has received a Conversion Notice for a given Selected Compound during the [***] period referenced above, the MARs due thereafter for the applicable Minimum Annual Royalty Category shall be non-cancellable and payable during the remainder of the

Commercialization Period for the applicable Minimum Annual Royalty Category, except that (i) with respect to [***], the obligation to pay MARs in a given Minimum Annual Category (i.e., Sections 8.5.1.3 and 8.5.1.4) will end in the Calendar Year in which there no longer exists a Valid Claim covering the [***] of a Selected Enhancing Compound in the applicable Minimum Annual Category [***] and (ii) with respect to [***], the obligation to pay MARs in a given Minimum Annual Category (i.e., Sections 8.5.1.1 and 8.5.1.2) will end in the Calendar Year in which there no longer exists a Valid Claim covering the [***] of a Enhancing Compound in the applicable Minimum Annual Category [***].

8.5.1.1 Selected Compounds that are [***]

During the Commercialization Period for Selected Compounds that are [***], PEPSICO will pay the following MARs to SENOMYX:

· [***] for the first Commercialization Year;

· [***] for the second Commercialization Year;

8.5.1.6 Royalty Shortfall

The amount due under this Section 8.5 for any Commercialization Year is the amount, if any, by which the MARs specified for the applicable Minimum Annual Royalty Category for that Commercialization Year period exceeds the royalties actually paid on Beverages and Beverage Bases incorporating Selected Compounds with respect to the applicable Minimum Annual Royalty Category during such Commercialization Year (“Royalty Shortfall(s)”). The Royalty Shortfalls shall be calculated separately for each Minimum Annual Royalty Category.

For the avoidance of doubt, if PEPSICO selects multiple Collaboration Compounds within any of the five Minimum Annual Royalty Categories, the Royalty Shortfall shall be due for that category and not for each Selected Compound within that category.

8.6 Adjustment of Values for Minimum Royalties

With respect to each Minimum Royalty Category, the MARs will be adjusted for the [***] year of the applicable Commercialization Period and beyond, for inflation/deflation using the Consumer Price Index as set forth below. The first adjustment will be effective on the [***] anniversary of the commencement of the applicable Commercialization Period and annually on each anniversary thereafter, and shall be calculated as follows:

· MAR for the applicable Commercialization Year = Unadjusted Base MAR * (1 + %CPI Increase/Decrease)

Such amount as calculated shall be the applicable MAR for the given Minimum Royalty Category to be paid until the next date for adjustment hereunder.

· The “Unadjusted Base MAR” for purposes of each MAR adjustment shall be [***], as the case may be, in the case of Selected Compounds that are [***], [***], as the case may be, in the case of Selected Compounds that are [***], [***] in the case of Selected Compounds that are [***], [***] in the case of Selected Compounds that are [***]; and [***], as the case may be, in the case of Selected Compounds that are [***].

· %CPI Increase/Decrease = (Comparison CPI – Base CPI) ÷ Base CPI

· The “Comparison CPI” shall be the unadjusted Consumer Price Index for the December of the Calendar Year [***] the applicable annual adjustment and the “Base CPI” shall be the unadjusted Consumer Price Index for December of the Calendar Year which is [***] such Calendar Year.

The payment of such interest will not limit SENOMYX from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment.

8.11 Records of Unit Sales, Net Sales and Royalty Calculations

8.11.1 Records Relating to Royalties

PEPSICO will, and will cause its Affiliates and permitted sublicensees to, keep complete and accurate records of sales and all other information necessary to calculate royalties due to SENOMYX for any Product incorporating a Selected Compound. The records for a given year will be maintained by PEPSICO, its Affiliates and permitted sublicensees for a period of [***] following submission of the related Royalty Report for that year. The records for a given year will be in sufficient detail to allow the accrued royalties to be determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (which shall mean the international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) at such time as IFRS becomes the generally accepted accounting standard in the United States and the applicable laws require that a party use IFRS) and to verify the royalty payments pursuant to Section 8.4.

8.11.2 Attestation of Records Relating to Royalties

SENOMYX, with reasonable written notice to PEPSICO, and no more than [***] per calendar year, will have the right to cause a nationally recognized independent, certified public accountant [***] to review such records relating to the royalty payments at the place or places of business where such records are customarily kept by PEPSICO, its Affiliates and sublicensees in order to provide an attestation, based upon accounting procedures [***] (the “Attestation”), of the accuracy of the reports of royalty payments. Such accountant must execute a confidentiality agreement prior to entering the applicable premises, obligating such accountant to keep all information disclosed to it confidential and will only be permitted to disclose to SENOMYX whether there was any discrepancy between royalty payments made by PEPSICO (or its Affiliates or sublicensees) under this Agreement and the actual royalty required to be so paid and, if so, the extent of the discrepancy and any information necessary to explain the cause of the discrepancy. SENOMYX will bear the full cost of such Attestation unless such Attestation discloses an underpayment of more than [***] from the amount of the royalties due under this Agreement, in which event, PEPSICO will bear the full cost of such Attestation. Upon conclusion of such Attestation, any underpayment shall be promptly paid by PEPSICO and any overpayment made by PEPSICO will be promptly refunded to PEPSICO.

takes all reasonable steps to mitigate any such delay in performance hereunder and any damages that may be incurred by the other party thereby.

16.2 Governing Law and Jurisdiction

This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, as such laws are applied to contracts entered into and to be performed entirely within such state.

16.3 Binding Effect

This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties.

16.4 Dispute Resolution

The parties recognize that disputes as to certain matters may, from time to time, arise during the Term, which relate to either party’s rights and/or obligations hereunder. It is the objective of the parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of disputes arising under this Agreement in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation and without resort to arbitration. The parties agree that prior to any arbitration concerning this Agreement, SENOMYX’s [***] and PEPSICO’s [***], or another corporate officer of PEPSICO with the title of Executive Vice President or higher, will meet in person, or by video-conferencing and will use best efforts to resolve any disputes concerning this Agreement.

Within 30 days of a formal request by either party to the other party, either party may, by written notice to the other party, have such dispute referred to their respective officers designated, or their successors, for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations, such good faith negotiations to begin within thirty days after such notice is received. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement which is not resolved between the parties or the designated officers of the parties pursuant to this Section 16.4 will be resolved by final and binding arbitration conducted in New York, New York (unless the parties mutually agree to another location) in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration will be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator who is knowledgeable in the general subject matter at issue in the dispute.

The parties will agree on the arbitrator and if they cannot agree, the arbitrator will be selected in accordance with the procedures of the American Arbitration Association.

In conducting the arbitration, the arbitrator will

(i) determine what discovery will be permitted, consistent with the goal of limiting the cost and time which the parties must expend for discovery (and provided that the arbitrators will permit such discovery they deem necessary to permit an equitable resolution of the dispute),

(ii) ensure that the total time of the arbitration from filing to a final decision or executed settlement agreement is less than six months, and

(iii) be able to decree any and all relief of an equitable nature, including, but not limited to, such relief as a temporary restraining order, a preliminary injunction, a permanent injunction, specific performance or repletion of property.

The arbitrator will also be able to award damages and recommend injunctions.

The parties will share equally the arbitrator’s fees and expenses pending the resolution of the arbitration.

The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding on the parties and may be sued on or enforced by the party in whose favor it runs in any court of competent jurisdiction at the option of such party.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.4, either party may seek immediate injunctive or other interim relief from any court of competent jurisdiction with respect to any breach of Sections 10 or 13 hereof, or otherwise to enforce and protect the Patent Rights, copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights Controlled by such party. In addition, arbitration will not be used to resolve disputes concerning Patent Rights. Disputes concerning Patent Rights, including, but not limited to, disputes concerning patent ownership, claim language, claim scope and issues of validity will be settled in a court of law. Any arbitration ruling that relies on an interpretation of Patent Rights will have no binding effect in a court of law on any Patent Rights related to this Agreement, unless such Patent Rights have been adjudicated in a court of law. In no event will a demand for arbitration be made after the date when the institution of a legal or equitable proceeding based on such claim, dispute or other matter in question would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the outcome of the arbitration proceeding, each party will bear its own expenses including, without limitation, attorneys fees and court costs, even if the arbitrators have the discretion to award such fees and costs to the prevailing party.

16.5 Severability

If any term of this Agreement or the application thereof to any party or circumstance is, to any extent, held to be invalid or unenforceable, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term to parties or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, will not be affected thereby and each term of this Agreement will be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. The parties agree to renegotiate such term in good faith in order to provide a reasonably acceptable alternative to the term that is invalid or unenforceable, it being the intent of the parties that the basic purposes of this Agreement are to be effectuated.

16.6 Independent Contractors

It is expressly agreed that PEPSICO and SENOMYX will be independent contractors and that the relationship between the parties will not constitute a partnership or agency of any kind. Neither PEPSICO nor SENOMYX will have the authority to make any statements,
