Shattuck will control prosecution of any such Joint Patent Right, provided that no Joint Patent Right will claim or disclose any of ImmunoGen’s Confidential Information without ImmunoGen’s prior written consent. Preparation, filing and prosecution of a Joint Patent Right will be through counsel acceptable to both Parties. The Parties will instruct such counsel to provide Shattuck and ImmunoGen with (i) copies of all office actions and correspondence and communications from relevant patent offices issued in connection with a Joint Patent Right; and (ii) as much prior notice as practicable to review and comment on any communication with or submission to any patent office regarding a Joint Patent Right. In the event that Shattuck and ImmunoGen provide conflicting instructions that cannot be resolved, both Parties agree that such counsel will be instructed to proceed with the instructions provided by Shattuck to the extent such instructions would lead solely to disclosure of the Combination and the pursuit of patent claims directed thereto. If only one Party desires to file a Joint Patent Right (and the other Party confirms in writing that it does not desire to join in such filing, which it will do promptly upon the request of the other Party), then the filing Party may file such Joint Patent Right at its sole expense solely to the disclosure of the Combination and claims directed thereto, provided that such Joint Patent Right will not claim or disclose any Confidential Information of the other Party without such Party’s prior written consent. In the event that either Shattuck or ImmunoGen decides to cease prosecution and/or maintenance of any Joint Patent Right, the Party ceasing prosecution and/or maintenance of any Joint Patent Right will provide the other Party with the opportunity, at such other Party’s sole discretion and expense, to continue prosecution or maintenance of such Joint Patent Right, provided, however, that any subsequent filing (including any claim amendments) is limited solely to the disclosure of
13

The Parties agree that prior to submission of the Clinical Data for publication or presentation or any other dissemination of Clinical Data including oral dissemination, Shattuck shall provide to ImmunoGen full details and a full and final copy of the material to be published or presented according to the following procedure: at least thirty [***] prior to submission for publication of any manuscript, letter or any other publication, and at least [***] days prior to submission for presentation of any abstract, poster, talk or any other presentation. Upon written request from ImmunoGen, Shattuck agrees not to submit Clinical Data for publication/presentation for an additional thirty [***] in order to allow for actions to be taken to preserve rights for patent protection. Shattuck shall require that any other Publisher agree to publication obligations at least as stringent as those set forth herein.
11.1.2    ImmunoGen agrees not to submit any Clinical Data for publication or presentation or any other dissemination of Clinical Data including oral dissemination until Shattuck has published the Clinical Data, provided that ImmunoGen may publish in the circumstances where (i) Shattuck declines to publish within [***] after Study Completion or (ii) after publication of the Clinical Data by Shattuck, provided that in both cases ImmunoGen shall provide to Shattuck’s Alliance Manager the full details of the content of the material and a full copy of the material to be published or presented according to the following procedure: at least [***] days prior to submission for publication of any manuscript, letter or any other publication, and at least [***] days prior to submission for presentation of any abstract, poster, talk or any other presentation. Upon written request from Shattuck, ImmunoGen agrees not to submit Clinical Data for publication/presentation for an additional [***] days in order to allow for actions to be taken which might be necessary to preserve rights for patent protection. ImmunoGen agrees not to include Confidential Information disclosed by Shattuck to ImmunoGen pursuant to this Agreement (except for Clinical Data) in any publication without the prior written consent of Shattuck and shall reasonably cooperate with Shattuck to resolve any issues related thereto.
11.1.3    The publishing Party shall give reasonable consideration to any request by the other Party made within the periods mentioned in Section 11.1.1 to modify the publication and the Parties shall work in good faith and in a timely manner to resolve any issue regarding the content for publication; provided that each Party, if the publishing Party, will accept and incorporate the other Party’s reasonable comments to the extent such relate to such Party’s Compound.
11.1.4    The publishing Party shall remove all Confidential Information (other than previously unpublished Clinical Data if the purpose of such publication or presentation is to disclose such data) of the other Party before finalizing the publication unless the other Party has affirmatively consented to such disclosure in writing.
11.2Press Releases. Neither Party shall issue or permit the issuance of any press release or other public announcement relating to this Agreement or the Study without first obtaining the written consent of the other Party with respect to both the timing and content of such press release or other public announcement. Each Party agrees to identify the other Party and acknowledge the other Party’s support in any press release and any other publication or presentation of the results of the Study.

13.2.1    Indemnification by Shattuck. Shattuck agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless ImmunoGen, its Affiliates, and its and their employees, directors, subcontractors and agents (each an “ImmunoGen Indemnified Party”) from and against any loss, damage, reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with any claim, proceeding, or investigation by a Third Party arising out of this Agreement or the Study (a “Third Party Claim”); except to the extent that such Third Party Claim was caused by (i) the negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an ImmunoGen Indemnified Party; (ii) a breach on the part of ImmunoGen of any of its representations and warranties or any other covenants or obligations of ImmunoGen under this Agreement; (iii) a breach of Applicable Law by ImmunoGen; or (iv) a defect in the design, the manufacture, commercial packaging or labeling of the ImmunoGen Compound by ImmunoGen as well as a defect due to the handling of the ImmunoGen Compound by ImmunoGen before Delivery.

A Person seeking indemnification under Section 13.2 (the “Indemnified Party”) in respect of a Third Party Claim shall give written notice within thirty (30) days of first knowledge of such Third Party Claim to the Party from which recovery is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”), provided that any failure to provide notice within such time period shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations of indemnification with respect to such Third Party Claim unless and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such delay, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume direction and control of the defense of the Third Party Claim, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall act reasonably and in good faith with respect to the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim as the defense or settlement relates to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party, its employees and agents, shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its legal representatives in the investigation and defense of such Third Party Claim. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense of any Third Party Claim, and request separate counsel, with such attorneys’ fees and expenses or litigation to be paid by the Indemnified Party, unless (a)
16

representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicting interests between such Indemnified Party and any other Person represented by such counsel in such proceedings, or (b) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the applicable Third Party Claim, and in connection with either clause (a) or (b) above, such reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of litigation shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party. Neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party shall settle or otherwise resolve such Third Party Claim without the other’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that the Indemnifying Party may, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, agree or consent to any settlement or other resolution of such Third Party Claim which requires solely money damages paid by the Indemnifying Party, and which includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by such claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim.
13.2.4    Insurance Proceeds. Any indemnification payment hereunder shall be made net of any insurance proceeds which the Indemnified Party is entitled to recover; provided, however, that if, following the payment to the Indemnified Party of any amount under this Section 13.2, such Indemnified Party becomes entitled to recover any insurance proceeds in respect of the claim for which such indemnification payment was made, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds (but not exceeding the amount of such indemnification payment) to the Indemnifying Party.
13.2.5    Study Subjects. Shattuck shall not offer compensation on behalf of ImmunoGen to any Study subject or bind ImmunoGen to any indemnification obligations in favor of any Study subject.

24    Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to any choice of law principle that would dictate the application of the law of another jurisdiction.
25    Dispute Resolution.
The Parties recognize that a bona fide dispute as to certain matters may from time to time arise during the Term relating to the conduct of the Study, either Party’s rights or obligations hereunder or otherwise relating to the validity, enforceability or performance of this Agreement, including disputes relating to alleged breach or termination of this Agreement but excluding any determination of the validity, scope, infringement, enforceability, inventorship or ownership of the Parties’ respective Patent Rights (hereinafter, a “Dispute”). In the event of the occurrence of any such Dispute, the Parties shall, by written notice to the other Party, have such Dispute referred to their respective senior officers designated below, for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations commencing promptly after such notice is received. Said designated senior officials of the Parties are as follows:
For Company:     Chief Executive Officer; and For ImmunoGen:     Chief Executive Officer.
If the designated senior officials are not able to resolve such Dispute within [***] days following delivery of the notice referring the Dispute to the Parties’ respective senior officers designated above, then such Dispute shall be finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association by three arbitrators, of whom each Party shall designate one, with the third arbitrator to be designated by the two Party-designated arbitrators. The arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§1 et seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered by any court having competent jurisdiction thereof. The place of arbitration shall be the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, New York.
26    Patent Disputes.
26.1Inventorship. Any dispute, controversy or claim between the Parties involving the inventorship of any inventions conceived or first actually reduced to practice in connection with the conduct of the Study that is not resolved by mutual agreement of the Parties’ respective chief patent counsels (or persons with similar responsibilities) within [***] days after the dispute is raised by one or both of the Parties shall be submitted to an Independent Patent Counsel for resolution. Such Independent Patent Counsel’s determination of inventorship, absent manifest error, shall be final and binding on the Parties; provided, however, that any such determination with respect to any inventions described or claimed in a patent application shall not preclude either Party from disputing inventorship with respect to any different or additional inventions described or claimed in any patent issuing from such patent application, which disputes shall be resolved in accordance with this Section 26.1. The Parties shall equally (50/50) share the Independent Patent Counsel fees and expenses related to his or her determination of inventorship.
26.2Other Patent Disputes. Any dispute, controversy or claim between the Parties that involves the validity, scope, infringement, enforceability or ownership of the Parties’ respective Patent Rights (i) that are pending or issued in the United States shall be subject to actions before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and/or submitted exclusively to the federal court located in the jurisdiction where the Party whose Patent Rights are the subject of such dispute, controversy or claim resides (provided that if such Party does not reside in the United States, venue shall be in the jurisdiction where such Party’s principal U.S. Affiliate resides), and (ii) that are pending or issued in any other country (or region) shall be brought before an appropriate regulatory or administrative body or court in that country (or region), and the Parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts and bodies.

[***] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE THE INFORMATION (I) IS NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD BE COMPETITIVELY HARMFUL IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.


Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if a Party reasonably requires equitable relief or relief on a more expedited basis than would be possible pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 25 hereof, such Party may seek a temporary injunction or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction, without posting a bond. Any such remedies will be in addition to all other remedies available by law or at equity to the injured Party.
28    Execution.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each Party and delivered to the other Party, it being understood that both Parties need not sign the same counterpart. If any signature is delivered by e-mail delivery of a “pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the Party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such “pdf” signature page were an original thereof.
29    Interpretation.
The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that: (a) each Party and its counsel reviewed and negotiated the terms and provisions of this Agreement and have contributed to its revision; (b) the rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are resolved against the drafting Party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement; and (c) the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be construed fairly as to each Party hereto and not in a favor of or against any Party, regardless of which Party was generally responsible for the preparation of this Agreement. In addition, unless the context otherwise requires, wherever used in this Agreement: (i) the singular shall include the plural, the plural the singular; (ii) the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders; (iii) the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense (and/or); (iv) the words “include” or “including” shall be construed as incorporating, also, “but not limited to” or “without limitation” (irrespective of whether such words are used in the applicable instance); (v) the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and derivative or similar words refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement; and (vi) all references to “will” are interchangeable with the word “shall” and shall be understood to be imperative or mandatory in nature.
