In the event that such average Invoiced Amount or average invoice price, as applicable, cannot be determined for the Collaboration Product or the other product(s), Net Sales in the applicable country in the ROW Territory for purposes of determining royalties shall be mutually agreed by the Parties based on the relative value contributed by each component.

     In addition, Net Sales in the ROW Territory shall be determined without regard to the deduction for royalties or technology access fees provided for in clause (vii) above to the extent that (1) such royalties or technology access fees constitute Third Party Royalties and (2) the royalties payable by Shire to New River in respect of such Net Sales in the ROW Territory have been reduced by such Third Party Royalties in accordance with Section 11.5.1(a) .

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the ROW Territory, the disposition of a Collaboration Product or the use of the Collaboration Product without charge in excess of costs, including by means of clinical studies, compassionate use, named patient programs, sales under a treatment IND, test marketing, any nonregistrational studies, patient assistance

7






program, or any similar instance where the Collaboration Product is supplied without charge in excess of costs shall not result in any Net Sales. Additionally, amounts received by Shire or its Affiliates or sublicensees for the sale of Collaboration Products among Shire and its Affiliates and sublicensees for resale shall not be included in the computation of Net Sales hereunder.

     1.46 New River Invention” means an Invention that is conceived, solely or jointly with a Third Party, by an employee of New River or a person under an obligation of assignment to New River.

     1.47 Patent” means (i) valid and enforceable patents, re-examinations, reissues, renewals, extensions, supplementary protection certificates and term restorations, any confirmation patent or registration patent or patent of addition based on any such patent, (ii) pending applications for patents, including without limitation continuations, continuations-in-part, divisional, provisional and substitute applications, and inventors’ certificates, (iii) all foreign counterparts of any of the foregoing, and (iv) all priority applications of any of the foregoing.

ARTICLE 8.
PAYMENT TERMS

     8.1 Payment Method. All amounts due to either Party hereunder will be paid in United States Dollars by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by such Party. Any payments or portions thereof due hereunder that are not paid by the date such payments are due under this Agreement will bear simple interest at the lower of (a) [*] the US Prime Rate, as reported in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, on the due date (or, if the due date is not a business day, on the last business day prior to such due date), or (b) the maximum rate permitted by applicable Law, calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent; provided, that such interest shall not be due to the extent that a payment is inadvertently paid late (e.g., if such late payment is accompanied by reasonable evidence that the payor was not aware of the due date of the payment or

43






reasonable explanation that such payment due date was unintentionally missed) and if the payor acts in good faith in making payment as soon as it discovers that a required payment has not been made.

     8.2 Payment Schedules; Reports. The payments due pursuant to Sections 3.6.2, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4 and 11.3.5 are due and payable on the dates described therein. Royalty payments due pursuant to Section 7.5 are due and payable within thirty-five (35) days of the end of each calendar quarter during the Term during which there were Net Sales of Collaboration Products in the ROW Territory. Shire will accompany each payment of royalties under this Agreement with a report setting forth, on a country-by-country basis, the amount of gross sales of each Collaboration Product in such country, a calculation of Net Sales, the currency conversion rate used and the United States Dollar-equivalent of such Net Sales, and a calculation of the amount of royalty payment due on such Net Sales. Such report will be considered Confidential Information of Shire subject to the obligations of Article 10 of this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that any expenses or costs reported or shared in any way under this Agreement may be based upon estimates, which estimates will be GAAP-compliant; provided that when the actual results become known relative to any estaimated amount, any difference between the actual results and the estimate is reported and the next payment due hereunder related to such estimated item is appropriately adjusted for such difference. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any reports and payments relating to any cost, expense, or other financial amount shared pursuant to this Agreement for the fourth quarter of any calendar year shall reflect year-end reconciliations and adjustments, if any, applicable to the previous three quarters’ reported results.

     8.3 Currency Conversion. For any currency conversion required in determining the amount of royalties or US Product Profits due hereunder, such conversion will be made at the exchange rate used by Shire, consistent with its general internal corporate policies as they relate to its income statement, for its own consolidation purposes for the translation of such currency into United States Dollars for any royalty or US Product Profit payments due pursuant to this Agreement. Such policies will be made available to New River upon request and will be consistent with customary industry practices.

     8.4 Legal Restrictions. If at any time legal restrictions prevent the remittance by Shire of all or any part of royalties on Net Sales or US Product Profits in any country, Shire will have the right and option to make such payment by depositing the amount thereof in local currency to an account in the name of New River in a bank or other depository in such country. Shire will consult with New River regarding, and promptly notify New River of, any and all such arrangements.

      8.5 Taxes.

           8.5.1 Withholding Taxes. New River will be responsible for any and all income or other taxes owed by New River and required by applicable Law to be withheld or deducted from any of the royalty and other payments made by or on behalf of Shire to New River hereunder (“Withholding Taxes”), and Shire may deduct from any amounts that Shire is required to pay hereunder an amount equal to such Withholding Taxes. Shire will provide New River with reasonable advance notice of tax withholding obligations to which it reasonably believes that it is subject. New River will provide Shire any information available to New River that is necessary to determine the Withholding Taxes. Such Withholding Taxes will be paid to the proper taxing authority for New River’s account and evidence of such

44






payment will be secured and sent to New River within one (1) month of such payment. The Parties will do all such lawful acts and things and sign all such lawful deeds and documents as either Party may reasonably request from the other Party to enable New River and Shire or its Affiliates or sublicensees to take advantage of any applicable legal provision or any treaty provisions with the object of paying the sums due to New River hereunder with the lowest legal amount of Withholding Taxes.

           8.5.2 Additional Withholding Taxes. If, as a result of any change in the corporate status or location of Shire, or the permitted assignment of this Agreement by Shire, additional Withholding Taxes become due on payments from Shire or its permitted assignee to New River that would not have been due absent such change in corporate status or location or permitted assignment, and New River is not able to claim a credit or reimbursement for such tax, in whole or in part, then Shire will deduct Withholding Taxes in accordance with this Section 8.5, but will, in addition to the sums otherwise payable under this Agreement, pay to New River such further sum as will ensure that, after deduction of Withholding Taxes on all such sums, the net amount received by New River equals the amount that New River would have received had the non-creditable or non-reimbursable excess portion of such additional Withholding Taxes not been deducted. To the extent that any such amount paid by Shire to New River in accordance with this Section 8.5 is in fact subsequently able to be claimed by New River as a credit or reimbursement for such tax otherwise deducted, then New River will repay such amount to Shire.

      8.6 Records Retention; Audit.

           8.6.1 Record Retention. Each Party will maintain complete and accurate books, records and accounts used for the determination of expenses incurred in connection with the performance of Development or Commercialization activities or otherwise relevant for the calculation of Net Sales and US Product Profits, in sufficient detail to confirm the accuracy of any payments required under this Agreement, which books, records and accounts will be retained by such Party for three (3) years after the end of the period to which such books, records and accounts pertain, or longer as is required by applicable Law.

           8.6.2 Audit. Each Party will have the right to have an independent certified public accounting firm of internationally recognized standing, reasonably acceptable to the other Party, to have access during normal business hours, and upon reasonable prior written notice, to such of the records of the other Party as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of any expenses shared or paid by the other Party under this Agreement or the calculation of Net Sales or US Product Profits for any calendar year ending not more than three (3) years prior to the date of such request; provided, however, that, no Party will have the right to conduct more than one such audit in any twelve (12) month period and that the auditing Party shall not be permitted to audit the same period of time more than once, unless evidence of fraud or gross negligence arises in a subsequent audit and the auditing Party reasonably believes that such evidence indicates the reasonable possibility of fraud or gross negligence in any such prior period. The accounting firm will disclose to the Parties only whether the various expenses subject to being shared by this Agreement, Net Sales or US Product Profits reported by the audited Party are correct or incorrect and the specific details concerning any discrepancies. The auditing Party will bear all costs of such audit, unless the audit reveals a discrepancy in the auditing Party’s favor of more than [*], in which case the audited Party will bear the cost of the audit. If the audited Party disputes the findings pursuant to this Section 8.6.2, the Parties shall meet and discuss such dispute. If such dispute

45






is not resolved within forty-five (45) days, then it shall be subject to Article 16. Shire shall use Diligent Efforts to obtain from any sub-licensee audit rights at least as favorable as the audit rights set forth in this Section 8.6.2 and the right to share the results of any such audit with New River. In the event that New River reasonably believes that there is a material inaccuracy in the reporting by a sub-licensee of the Net Sales of such sub-licensee, then New River may direct Shire to exercise such audit rights in accordance with procedures reasonably requested by New River. New River shall succeed to the rights and obligations of Shire in respect of any costs or expenses associated with a sub-licensee audit requested by New River.

           8.6.3 Payment of Additional Amounts. If, based on the results of any audit, additional payments are owed to either Party under this Agreement, then the paying Party will make such additional payments within five (5) Business Days after the accounting firm’s written report is delivered to the Parties. The provisions of Section 8.1 shall apply to such payment.

             8.6.4 Confidentiality. Each Party will treat all information subject to review under this Section 8.6 in accordance with the provisions of Article 10. Prior to conducting any audit hereunder, the Party conducting such audit will cause its accounting firm to enter into a reasonably acceptable confidentiality agreement with the audited Party obligating such accounting firm to maintain all such financial information in confidence with standards no less stringent that the terms of this Article 10 of this Agreement.

            11.3.5 Patent Expenses.

                 (a) In the US Territory. Patent Expenses for the US Territory shall be borne [*]. Within five (5) Business Days following the end of each calendar quarter, each Party shall deliver a report outlining its Patent Expenses for such quarter. Within thirty (30) days following the end of each such quarter, the Party incurring less than [*] of such expenses during the quarter shall reimburse the other Party an amount sufficient to [*] each Party’s share of such costs.

                 (b) In the ROW Territory. Patent Expenses for the ROW Territory shall be borne [*]; provided, however, if New River incurs any expenses for any country in which Shire has notified New River at least thirty (30) days advance notice in writing either that it does not intend to Commercialize a Collaboration Product in such country, or that it has abandoned such Commercialization, any fee or expense incurred with respect to patents in such country shall be the sole responsibility of New River and shall not

53






be deemed Patent Expenses effective as of the end of such notice period. Within five (5) Business Days following the end of each calendar quarter, each Party shall deliver a report outlining its Patent Expenses for such quarter. Within thirty (30) days following the end of each such quarter, the Party incurring less than [*] of such expenses during the quarter shall reimburse the other Party an amount sufficient to [*] each Party’s share of such costs. In the event that Shire notifies New River that it does intend to Commercialize a Collaboration Product in any country in which it has previously notified of an intention not to Commercialize or abandoned Commercialization, or so Commercializes such Collaboration Product in such country, then Shire shall reimburse New River for an amount equal to [*] of the Patent Expense for the applicable country incurred from the effective date of such notification.

     11.4 Third-Party Patent Rights. Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.1 below, neither Party makes any warranty with respect to the validity, perfection or dominance of any Patent or other proprietary right or with respect to the absence of rights in Third Parties which may be infringed by the Manufacture or Commercialization of any Collaboration Product. Each Party agrees to bring to the attention of the other Party any patent or patent application it discovers, or has discovered, and which relates to the subject matter of this Agreement.

      11.5 Enforcement and Defense of Patents.

            11.5.1 Infringement of Third Party Patents.

                 (a) Third Party Claims; Third Party Royalties. In the event of a Third Party Claim against Shire, New River or their respective Affiliates alleging that the making, using, importing, selling or offering to sell a Collaboration Product infringes or will infringe claims in any patents of a Third Party, the Party first obtaining knowledge of such Third Party Claim shall immediately provide the other Party notice of such Third Party Claim with the related facts in reasonable detail. Shire shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to control such defense with respect to the Collaboration Product with an attorney of Shire’s choice if Shire or any of its Affiliates are named as a party to such Third Party claim and New River or any of its Affiliates are not. In such case, New River shall have the right to be represented by independent counsel at New River’s own expense. New River shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to control such defense with respect to the Collaboration Product with an attorney of New River’s choice if New River or any of its Affiliates are named as a party to such Third Party claim and Shire or any of its Affiliates are not. In such case, Shire shall have the right to be represented by independent counsel at Shire’s own expense. If either Party refuses to accept control of the defense of a Third Party Claim for which it has the first right to control defense hereunder within [*] after receiving or giving notice thereof, then the other Party shall have the right to defend against such Third Party Claim. In such case, such refusing Party shall have the right to be represented by independent counsel at its own expense. If (1) Shire or any of its Affiliates and (2) New River or any of its Affiliates are named as parties to such Third Party Claim, then the Parties will have the joint right, but not the obligation, to control such defense with respect to the Collaboration Product with an attorney of their mutual agreement. If the Parties are unable to agree on such joint defense, then the Parties will use good faith efforts to determine the Party to assume control of such defense and choice of counsel. In such case, the other Party shall have the right to be represented by independent counsel at its own expense. If, as a result of a judgment in any litigation or settlement with a Third Party, Shire or its Affiliates are required

54






to pay royalties to any Third Party (“Third Party Royalty”), then, on a country-by-country basis and product-by-product basis, the royalty due to New River under this Agreement with respect to Net Sales in the ROW Territory will be [*] of the Third Party Royalty, provided that the royalty due to New River will not be reduced to less than [*] of the royalty that would be due to New River in the absence of such Third Party Royalty.

                 (b) Cooperation. If a Party shall become engaged in or participate in any suit described in this Section 11.5.1, the other Party shall cooperate, and shall cause its and its Affiliates’ employees to cooperate, with such Party in all reasonable respects in connection therewith, including giving testimony and producing documents lawfully requested, and using its reasonable and diligent efforts to make available to the other, at no cost to the other (other than reimbursement of actually incurred, reasonable out-of-pocket travel and lodging expenses), such employees who may be helpful with respect to such suit, investigation, claim, interference or other proceeding.

            11.5.2 Prosecution of Infringers.

                 (a) Notice. If either Party learns that a Third Party is infringing or allegedly infringing any Patent within the Licensed Patents, the Shire Patents or the Joint Collaboration Patents or if any Third Party claims that any such Patent is invalid or unenforceable, it will promptly notify the other Party thereof including available evidence of infringement or the claim of invalidity or unenforceability. The Parties will cooperate and use reasonable efforts to stop such alleged infringement or to address such claim without litigation.

                 (b) Enforcement and Defense of Licensed Patents, Joint Collaboration Patents and Shire Collaboration Patents.

                       (i) Shire will have the first right (but not the obligation) to take the appropriate steps to enforce or defend any Patent within the Shire Collaboration Patents. Shire may take steps including the initiation, prosecution and control any suit, proceeding or other legal action by counsel of its own choice. Each of New River and Shire will bear the costs of such enforcement or defense [*]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, New River will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice.

                       (ii) If, pursuant to Section 11.5.2(b)(i), Shire fails to take the appropriate steps to enforce or defend any Patent within the Shire Collaboration Patents within [*] of the date one Party has provided notice to the other Party pursuant to Section 11.5.2(a) of such infringement or claim, then New River will have the right (but not the obligation), at its own expense, to bring any such suit, action or proceeding by counsel of its own choice and Shire will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice.

                       (iii) New River will have the first right (but not the obligation) to take the appropriate steps to enforce or defend any Patent within the Licensed Patents. New River may, in any such instance, take steps including the initiation, prosecution and control any suit, proceeding or other legal action by counsel of its own choice. Each of New River and Shire will bear the costs of such enforcement or defense [*]. Notwithstanding

55






the foregoing, Shire will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice.

                       (iv) If, pursuant to Section 11.5.2(b)(iii), New River fails to take the appropriate steps to enforce or defend any Patent within the Licensed Patents within [*] of the date one Party has provided notice to the other Party pursuant to Section 11.5.2(a) of such infringement or claim, then Shire will have the right (but not the obligation), at its own expense, to bring any such suit, action or proceeding by counsel of its own choice, and New River will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice.

                       (v) In the case of Joint Collaboration Patents, the Parties will decide whether Shire or New River will have the first right (but not the obligation) to take the appropriate steps to enforce or defend any Patent within the Joint Collaboration Patents. The Party so selected may, in any such instance, take steps including the initiation, prosecution and control any suit, proceeding or other legal action by counsel of its own choice. Each of New River and Shire will bear the costs of such enforcement or defense [*] and the Party that is not so selected will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice.

                       (vi) If, pursuant to Section 11.5.2(b)(v), the Party selected fails to take the appropriate steps to enforce or defend any Patent within the Joint Collaboration Patents within [*] of the date one Party has provided notice to the other Party pursuant to Section 11.5.2(a) of such infringement or claim, then the other Party will have the right (but not the obligation), at its own expense, to bring any such suit, action or proceeding by counsel of its own choice, and the Party so selected will have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice.

                       (vii) Notwithstanding Sections 11.5.2(b)(i) -(vi), Shire will have the sole discretion whether to [*] and the sole right to [*] which may result [*] for such Third Party. For the avoidance of doubt, New River shall not have the right to [*] which may result in [*] for such Third Party. Any such [*], as may be required by Law.

                  (c) Cooperation; Damages.

                       (i) If one Party brings any suit, action or proceeding under this Section 11.5.2, the other Party agrees to be joined as party plaintiff if necessary to prosecute the suit, action or proceeding and to give the first Party reasonable authority to file and prosecute the suit, action or proceeding; provided, however, that neither Party will be required to transfer any right, title or interest in or to any property to the other Party or any other party to confer standing on a Party hereunder.

                       (ii) The Party not pursuing the suit, action or proceeding hereunder will provide reasonable assistance to the other Party, including by providing access to relevant documents and other evidence and making its employees available, subject to the other Party’s reimbursement of any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the non-enforcing or defending Party in providing such assistance.

                       (iii) Neither Party will settle or otherwise compromise any such suit, action or proceeding in a way that adversely affects the other Party’s intellectual

56






property rights or its rights or interests with respect to the Collaboration Product without such Party’s prior written consent.

                       (iv) Any settlements, damages or other monetary awards (the “Recovery”) recovered pursuant to a suit, action or proceeding brought pursuant to Section 11.5.2 will be allocated first to the costs and expenses of the Party taking such action, and second, to the costs and expenses (if any) of the other Party, with any remaining amounts (if any) to be allocated as follows: (i) any Recovery with respect to a country in the ROW Territory will be shared [*], and (ii) any Recovery with respect to the US Territory will be [*].

New River and Shire each shall immediately give notice to the other of any certification filed under the U.S. Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (or its foreign equivalent) claiming that a Licensed Patent, Joint Collaboration Patent or a Shire Collaboration Patent is invalid or that infringement of a Licensed Patent, Joint Collaboration Patent or Shire Collaboration Patent will not arise from the manufacture, use, offer for sale, sale or importation product by a Third Party (“Hatch-Waxman Certification”). Nothing in this Section 11.6 shall prevent or otherwise limit New River’s right to take any and all such actions with regard to the matters described in this Section 11.6 as required by applicable Law.

     11.7 Patent Term Extensions. New River and Shire shall cooperate in good faith in gaining patent term extensions due to delay(s) in Regulatory Approval wherever applicable to the Licensed Patents, Joint Collaboration Patents and Shire Collaboration Patents. However, Shire shall have the sole discretion in determining which Licensed Patent(s), Joint Collaboration Patent(s), or Shire Collaboration Patent(s) to extend for any particular compound, composition, article, product, process, or use.

     11.8 Listing of Patents. Shire shall have the right to determine which of the [*], if any, shall be submitted for inclusion in the Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations pursuant to 21 U.S.C.

57






connection with the sale or marketing of a Collaboration Product shall be reviewed by the JMC and shall comply with all applicable Laws (including, without limitation, those Laws and regulations particularly applying to the proper use and designation of trademarks in the applicable countries). Trademark(s), trade dress, logo(s) and slogan(s) under which Collaboration Products are marketed or sold (other than either Party’s corporate trademarks or trade names, and New River’s Carrierwave™ mark used in connection with technology related to the Compound) shall be used only pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to identify and in connection with the marketing of Collaboration Products, and shall not be used by either Party to identify or in connection with the marketing of any other products. Each Party shall have a right to prior review and approval of all Promotional Materials incorporating any of its trademarks, trade dress, logos or slogans sufficient to permit such Party to maintain quality control over its trademarks, trade dress, logos and slogans. All trademarks shall be registered by the Party owning such trademark in its name as owner in all applicable countries.

New River will continue to own, throughout the world, any trademarks, trade dress, logos and/or slogans, and all registrations therefor, used or intended to be used for a Collaboration Product which New River owns as of the Effective Date (the “New River Marks”).

Each Party shall take all reasonable and appropriate steps to protect, defend and maintain each trademark and copyright owned by such Party hereunder for use in connection with a Collaboration Product, and all registrations therefor. Each Party shall notify the other Party promptly upon learning of any actual, alleged or threatened infringement of a trademark, trade dress, logo, slogan,

copyright, or of any unfair trade practices, trade dress imitation, passing off of counterfeit goods, or like offenses. Upon learning of such offenses, the Party owning such trademark or copyright shall have the obligation to, in consultation with the other Party, institute and control an appropriate action or proceeding to halt the offense, unless the Parties otherwise mutually agree.

Such other Party shall have the right to participate fully in all such actions or proceedings. During the Term, in the event that the Party owning such trademark or copyright does not undertake such an infringement action then, in the case that such owning Party is New River, Shire shall be permitted to do so and all Recoveries in connection therewith will be allocated first to the costs and expenses of the Party taking such action, and second, to the costs and expenses (if any) of the other Party, with any remaining amounts (if any) to be allocated as follows: (i) any Recovery with respect to a country in the ROW Territory will be shared equally, and (ii) any Recovery with respect to the US Territory will be included in US Product Profits for the applicable calendar year.

Neither Party will register, seek to register or cause to be registered any trademarks, trade dress, logos or slogans owned by the other Party and used or intended to be used on or in connection with the marketing or sale of a Collaboration Product or any variation thereof, under any law providing for registration of trademarks, service marks, trade names, fictitious names or similar laws, as an Internet domain name, or in the name of a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, without the other Party’s prior written consent, and neither Party will register, seek to register or cause to be registered any copyright, nor register or patent, seek to register or patent or caused to be registered or patented, of the other Party, without the other Party’s prior written consent.

     12.3 Performance by Affiliates. The Parties recognize that each may perform some or all of its obligations under this Agreement through Affiliates; provided, however, that each Party shall remain responsible for and be guarantor of the performance by its Affiliates and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance.

TERM AND TERMINATION

     13.1 Term. This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and, unless sooner terminated as provided herein, shall continue in effect until the date on which the Parties are no longer Developing or Commercializing any Collaboration Product in any country (the “Term”).

65






      13.2 Breaches (General).

           13.2.1 If either Party (the “Breaching Party”) shall have committed a breach of this Agreement, the other Party (the “Notifying Party”) shall provide written notice of such breach to the Breaching Party. For all allegations of breach other than an allegation of Material Breach (as defined below), the Parties hereby agree that they shall seek to resolve the matter during the notice and cure period provided in Section 13.2.2 and may thereafter commence litigation pursuant to Article 16.

           13.2.2 Upon receipt of a notice of breach other than a Material Breach, the alleged Breaching Party shall have [*] within which to cure such breach following receipt of such notice ([*] in the event of non-payment unless such payment obligation is being disputed in good faith). If the matter is not resolved to the satisfaction of the Notifying Party during such cure period, then either Party may invoke the provisions of Article 16 with respect to claims for damages and other requests for equitable relief, but neither Party shall have any right to terminate this Agreement for such breach.

           13.2.3 The Parties may resort to the dispute resolution mechanisms of Article 16, and may seek all remedies in law or equity other than termination of this Agreement, without invoking the mechanisms of Section 13.3.

      13.3 Allegations of Material Breach.

           13.3.1 The Parties intend that this Agreement shall survive breach, and shall not be terminable in the event of breach, unless the breach is of [*] under this Agreement [*] to such an extent that [*] for the [*] taken as a whole [*] (“Material Breach”). In the event there is a dispute as to whether a Material Breach has occurred, this Agreement shall survive pending a determination pursuant to Article 16 that a Material Breach has occurred. This Section 13.3 shall apply to any allegation of Material Breach, with consequences as set forth herein.

           13.3.2 If a Party believes that a Material Breach has occurred, it shall give written notice to the Breaching Party of the nature of the breach and the reason the Notifying Party believes it is a Material Breach. The alleged Breaching Party shall then have a period of [*] following receipt of such notice ([*] in the event of non-payment unless such payment obligation is being disputed in good faith) in which to cure the breach; provided, however, that if the Material Breach is other than the payment of money and is capable of being cured but cannot be reasonably cured in such [*] period, then the right to terminate this Agreement shall not arise if the allegedly Breaching Party has (i) during such period of time submitted a plan that, if successfully carried out, would be effective in curing such Material Breach, and has commenced its execution of such plan, and (ii) diligently pursues such plan thereafter for a period of up to an additional [*]. Any such notice of alleged Material Breach by the Notifying Party shall include a reasonably detailed description of all relevant facts and circumstances demonstrating, supporting and/or relating to each such alleged Material Breach by the Breaching Party.

           13.3.3 If the alleged Material Breach is not cured within the cure period specified in Section 13.3.2, the Notifying Party may give notice of termination (“Notice of Termination For Material Breach”). If the Breaching Party agrees that a Material Breach has occurred, then the Parties shall proceed to terminate this Agreement in accordance with

66






Section 13.3.5 and Article 14. If the Breaching Party does not agree that a Material Breach has occurred, then this Agreement shall survive, and the Parties shall continue to perform their obligations hereunder, until the issue of whether there has been a Material Breach by the Breaching Party is resolved in accordance with Article 16.

           13.3.4 If the Notifying Party gives Notice of Termination For Material Breach, and it is later determined by a court pursuant to Article 16 that in fact there has not been a Material Breach by the Breaching Party, then this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

           13.3.5 If the Notifying Party gives Notice of Termination For Material Breach and the Agreement terminates, either because such notice is accepted by the Breaching Party or it is determined by a court pursuant to Article 16 that there has been a Material Breach by the Breaching Party, then the Notifying Party shall, within [*] after such determination, deliver written notice (the “Purchase Notice”) to the Breaching Party of the purchase by the Notifying Party of the Purchase Interest (as such term is defined below).

                 (a) The price (the “Purchase Price”) to be paid to purchase the entire interests, rights and obligations of the Breaching Party under this Agreement (the “Purchase Interest”) shall be [*], it being understood and agreed that [*] shall be applied [*] and that all intellectual property rights and other assets licensed or otherwise made available by the Parties and their respective Affiliates under this Agreement shall be [*].

                 (b) Each Party shall, within [*] after the delivery of the Purchase Notice, retain an internationally recognized investment banking firm to determine the Purchase Price. Each such investment banking firm shall set forth such determination in a written report and, on a mutually agreeable date no later than [*] after the delivery of the Purchase Notice, submit such report to the other Party.

                 (c) The Purchase Price shall be the amount equal to [*]. However, if [*] a third internationally recognized investment banking firm (which is independent of both Parties) shall determine such fair market value by [*]. Such third investment banking firm shall be selected by the first two investment banking firms; provided, however, that, if the two investment banking firms are unable to select a third investment banking firm within twenty (20) days following determination that [*], then each of the two initial investment banking firms shall within twenty (20) days thereafter submit the names of three internationally recognized investment banking firms (which are independent of both Parties) willing to act as the third investment banking firm hereunder, one of which firms shall be selected by lot by the Parties. The cost of such third investment banking firm shall be borne [*].

                 (d) The purchase and sale of a Purchase Interest pursuant to this Section 13.3 shall be transferred free and clear of all liens and other encumbrances and shall be consummated at closing at the principal offices of the Notifying Party, on a Business Day within forty-five (45) days following the final determination of the Purchase Price, and upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior notice by the Notifying Party, provided that such period shall be extended for such period of time as shall be necessary in order to obtain requisite governmental or regulatory approvals. At such closing, the Notifying Party shall pay the Breaching Party the Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Parties shall execute and deliver appropriate documentation, in form and substance that is

67






reasonably acceptable, to effect the transfer of the Purchased Interest and each Party further agrees to reasonably cooperate to effect the orderly transition of any activities then being conducted by the Breaching Party and its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement.

                 (e) The rights of the Parties set forth in this Section 13.3 are not exclusive and are in addition to any other rights or remedies available to such Party under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

Termination by Shire pursuant to this Section 13.4.1 may be on the basis of the US Territory and/or the countries of the European Union and/or the ROW Territory (other than the countries of the European Union). In the event of termination under this Section 13.4.1 no payment shall be due on account of such termination.

           13.4.2 In addition to Shire’s termination right pursuant to Section 13.4.1, within [*] following receipt of the first Regulatory Approval of the first Collaboration Product for ADHD in the US Territory, Shire may terminate this Agreement at will. If Shire exercises its right to terminate pursuant to this Section 13.4.2, such termination shall be effective [*] following written notice to New River, which shall be provided to New River within the period described in the preceding sentence. In the event of such termination:

                 (b) if such Regulatory Approval provides for a [*] of such Collaboration Product as either [*], no payment shall be due.

     13.5 Other Termination By New River. New River may terminate this Agreement on the basis of (i) the US Territory, (ii) the countries of the European Union and/or (iii) the ROW Territory (other than the countries of the European Union), in each case by [*] advance written notice to Shire [*], other than the following products: (i) any Collaboration Product, (ii) any product marketed by or on behalf of Shire as of the Effective Date, as set forth on Exhibit G, and any additional dosage strengths or line extensions thereof, and (iii) those products identified by Shire’s internal nomenclature as [*], each as described on Exhibit G, it being understood that each such product [*]. For avoidance of doubt, New River shall have no right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.5 if Shire files for Regulatory Approval for, or Commercializes, that product identified by Shire’s internal nomenclature as [*] or any [*] as such products do not contain a [*] formulated for [*] for the treatment or prevention of ADHD and are therefore outside the scope of this Section 13.5.

      13.6 Termination for Government Action.

The Indemnified Party will give the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) of any Losses or the discovery of any fact upon which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 15.1, but in no event will the Indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice which materially prejudices the defense of such Third Party Claim. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss are known at such time). Together with the Indemnification Claim Notice, the Indemnified Party will furnish promptly to the Indemnifying Party copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by any Indemnitee in connection with the Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party to the extent any admission or statement made by the Indemnified Party materially prejudices the defense of such Third Party Claim.

     15.3 Control of Defense. At its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim subject to indemnification as provided for in Sections 15.1.1 and 15.1.2 by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within [*] after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel it selects. Should the Indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party or any other Indemnitee for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party or other Indemnitee in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim.

74






     15.4 Right to Participate in Defense. Without limiting Section 15.3, any Indemnitee will be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of a Third Party Claim for which it has sought indemnification hereunder and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment will be at the Indemnitee’s own expense unless (a) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing, or (b) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 15.3 (in which case the Indemnified Party will control the defense).

     15.5 Settlement. With respect to any Losses relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnitee’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affect the business of the Indemnitee in any manner, and as to which the Indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder, the Indemnifying Party will have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its reasonable discretion, will deem appropriate (provided, however that such terms shall include a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect thereto), and will transfer to the Indemnified Party all amounts which said Indemnified Party will be liable to pay prior to the time of the entry of judgment. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 15.3, the Indemnifying Party will have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will be at the Indemnified Party’s reasonable discretion). The Indemnifying Party that has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 15.3 will not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnitee that is reached without the written consent of such Indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnitee will admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without first offering to the Indemnifying Party the opportunity to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 15.3.

     15.6 Cooperation. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will, and will cause each other Indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection with such Third Party Claim. Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours afforded to the Indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnitees and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation.

     15.7 Expenses of the Indemnified Party. Except as provided above, the reasonable and verifiable costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any Third Party Claim will be

75






reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the Indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the Indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the Indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.

      15.8 Product Claims.

           15.8.1 New River shall be solely responsible for all Losses from Third Party Claims resulting directly from either (i) the use of administration of the Compound by New River prior to the Effective Date or (ii) the conduct of clinical testing of the Compound by New River (including such clinical tests that commenced prior to and continuing after the Effective Date).

           15.8.2 Notwithstanding Section 15.1.1 and 15.1.2, but subject to Section 15.8.1, [*] shall be responsible for Losses [*] from [*] from the [*] of [*] (including, without limitation, [*] to any [*] or any [*] other than [*]), and [*] from [*] of the [*] any [*] to the [*]; in each case to the extent such claim arises, directly or indirectly, out of activities related to the US Territory (each, a “Product Claim”). All Product Claims shall be [*].

           15.8.3 Each Party shall give the other prompt written notice of any Product Claim (actual or potential), but the omission of such notice shall not relieve either Party from its obligations under this Section 15.8, except to the extent the other Party can establish actual prejudice and direct damages as a result thereof. [*] shall assume the lead role in the defense of such Product Claim; provided, however, that all costs and expenses of such defense shall be [*]. [*] shall consult with [*] on all material aspects of, and shall obtain the prior written consent of [*] (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, refused, conditioned or delayed) in respect of any material decisions to be taken with regard to, the defense, including without limitation settlement of such Product Claim, and [*] shall have a full opportunity to participate in decision-making process with respect to the strategy of such defense, and the Parties shall cooperate fully with each other in connection therewith. [*] shall also have the right to participate in the defense of any Product Claim utilizing attorneys of its choice, at its own expense. In furtherance of the Parties’ cooperation, [*] will consult with [*] regarding strategic decisions, including without limitation the retention of counsel and defense of each Product Claim. [*] will otherwise keep [*]ully informed of the status and progress of the defense and any settlement discussions concerning the Product Claim.

     15.9 Insurance. Each Party will obtain and keep in force, through self insurance or otherwise, in a form reasonably acceptable to the other Party hereto, insurance in scope and amount as required by law applicable to a Party’s activities hereunder and such additional amounts as may be reasonably necessary to cover such Party’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement with scope and coverage as is normal and customary in the biotechnology/pharmaceutical industry generally for parties similarly situated. It is understood that such insurance will not be construed to limit a Party’s liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Article 15. Each Party will, except to the extent self insured, provide to the other Party upon request a certificate evidencing the insurance such Party is required to obtain and keep in force under this Article 15. Such certificate will provide that such insurance will not expire or be cancelled or modified without at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the other Party.

     15.10 Guaranty. In consideration of the rights granted to Shire under this Agreement, and to induce New River to enter into this Agreement, Shire Pharmaceuticals Group PLC hereby unconditionally guarantees in favor of New River the full payment and performance by Shire of all obligations of Shire under this Agreement, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including any applicable notice or cure periods. This guaranty shall be enforceable after the failure by Shire to perform any obligation it may have under this Agreement in accordance with its terms, and shall be effective regardless of the solvency or insolvency of Shire at any time, the extension or modification of the obligations of this Agreement by operation of law, or the subsequent reorganization, merger, consolidation or other restructuring of Shire. Shire Pharmaceuticals Group PLC hereby expressly waives any requirement that New River exhaust any right, power or remedy under Article 16, or proceed against any other Shire entity under Article 16, for any obligation or performance hereunder prior to proceeding directly against Shire Pharmaceuticals Group PLC under this Section 15.10.

ARTICLE 16.

     16.1 Disputes. For all matters other than those delegated to the JDC, JMC or JSC under this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree that the dispute shall be referred to a senior executive of New River and a senior executive of Shire (the “Representatives”). If any such matter has not been resolved within [*] of such referral to the Representatives either Party may invoke the provisions of Section 16.2 for such dispute. No dispute resolution procedure set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as an agreement to arbitrate under any federal or state arbitration law, including but not limited to the Federal Arbitration Act, and shall not deprive a court of competent jurisdiction from resolving any dispute arising under, or related to, this Agreement. In the event of any dispute between the Parties arising in connection with Article 11 of this Agreement, the Parties agree that the dispute resolution described under this Article 16 will be conducted with sufficient dispatch to prevent loss of patent rights in the disputed subject matter.

     16.2 Litigation. Any dispute that is not resolved as provided in the preceding Section 16.1, whether before or after termination of this Agreement, may be submitted by either Party to any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States.

     16.4 Governing Law. Resolution of all disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement or the performance, enforcement, breach or termination of this Agreement and any remedies relating thereto, shall be governed by and construed under the substantive laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law rules that would provide for application of the law of a jurisdiction outside New York.

     17.4 Independent Contractors. In making and performing this Agreement, Shire and New River shall act at all times as independent contractors and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed or implied for any purpose to create an agency, partnership, limited partnership, joint venture or employer and employee relationship between Shire and New River and this Agreement shall not be construed to suggest otherwise. At no time shall one Party make commitments or incur any charges or expenses for or in the name of the other Party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party shall be solely responsible for its own costs and expenses associated with this Agreement.

     17.5 Non-Solicitation. From and after the Effective Date until the [*] the termination or expiration of this Agreement, neither Party shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, without the other Party’s prior written consent, solicit the employment of any employee (or former employee bound by a non-competition obligation) of the other Party or its Affiliates with whom it has come in contact in conducting activities under this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions shall not apply to (a) a general advertisement or solicitation program that is not specifically targeted at such persons or (b) the solicitation of any employee after such time as such employee’s employment has been terminated by the other Party or its Affiliate.

     17.6 Maintenance of Records. Each Party shall keep and maintain all records required by Law with respect to Products and shall make copies of such records available to the other Party upon reasonable request.

     17.9 Assignment. Neither Party will sell, transfer, assign, delegate, pledge or otherwise dispose of, whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of Law or otherwise, this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent may be granted, withheld or conditioned at such other Party’s sole and absolute discretion); provided, however, that either Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of the other Party (a) to any Affiliate of such Party, or (b) to any Third Party with which it merges or consolidates, or to which it transfers all or substantially all of its assets. The assigning Party (unless it is not the surviving entity) will remain jointly and severally liable with, and will guarantee the performance of, the relevant Affiliate or Third Party assignee under this Agreement, and the relevant Affiliate assignee, Third Party assignee or surviving entity will assume in writing all of the assigning Party’s obligations under this Agreement. Any purported assignment or transfer in violation of this Section 17.9 will be void ab initio and of no force or effect. Upon any such assignment by New River pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 17.9 to a Third Party with a product that has received Regulatory Approval and that competes with any Collaboration Product, any and all ongoing and future Co-Promotion rights and activities of New River (and any such New River assignee) pursuant to Article 5 hereof or otherwise with respect to the applicable Collaboration Product shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect if such Third Party does not divest of such competing product.

The Parties shall make a good faith effort to replace any invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable one such that the objectives contemplated by the Parties when entering this Agreement may be realized.

     17.13 Ambiguities. Ambiguities, if any, in this Agreement shall not be construed against any Party, irrespective of which Party may be deemed to have authored the ambiguous provision.

     17.16 ROW Territory Agreement. The Parties hereby agree to prepare and cause to be entered into, no later than (30) days following the Effective Date, a separate written agreement incorporating the provisions herein relating to Collaboration Products (and all other relevant matters) in the ROW Territory (the “ROW Agreement”).

The milestone payments provided for in Section 7.2 (excluding the milestone payment provided for in Section 7.2(d)) will remain the sole responsibility of Shire.

Shire and New River announce collaboration on Phase 3 ADHD drug candidate

BASINGSTOKE, UK, PHILADELPHIA, PA, US and RADFORD, Va., US January 31, 2005— Shire Pharmaceuticals Group plc (LSE: SHP; NASDAQ: SHPGY; TSX: SHQ) and New River Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: NRPH) announced today the signing of an agreement for the global commercialization of NRP104, New River’s Phase 3 compound for treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), as well as for other potential indications.

Under the terms of the agreement the parties will collaborate on NRP104 development, manufacturing, marketing and sales in the US. Shire will book the product sales and New River may supply up to 25% of the sales effort under a co-promotion right. New River will be financially and operationally responsible for clinical and manufacturing development.

Upon U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval, the parties will divide operating profit in accordance with the following general principles: Shire will retain 75% of profits for the first two years following launch and the parties will share the profits equally thereafter.

In the rest of the world, Shire has a license to develop and commercialize NRP104 and New River will receive a low double-digit royalty on net sales.

E-1






Shire pays an initial sum of US$50 million on signing, a further US$50 million upon acceptance of filing of the New Drug Application by the FDA and up to US$300 million in milestone payments depending on the characteristics of the FDA-approved product labeling. An additional US$100 million milestone would be payable as a sales bonus upon achieving a significant sales target. Shire currently plans to expense the first two US$50 million payments, and to capitalize and amortize the milestone payments and the sales bonus over the life of the product.

Shire may be entitled to refunds of amounts previously paid in the event of a delayed product approval, or upon FDA approval depending on the characteristics of the approved product labeling.

 

 

Matthew Emmens, Chief Executive of Shire, said:

“This is a strong addition to our ADHD portfolio and complements the development strategy of Shire and its pipeline. NRP104 is in late stage development and we are encouraged by the data that we have seen to date and hope that the new drug has similar efficacy of currently marketed ADHD treatments with potential additional advantages. Importantly, NRP104 could become a global ADHD product. We have structured the financial payments for this collaboration to reflect the potential of the new drug and look forward to progressing this product with New River.”

R.J. Kirk, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of New River, said:

“We are delighted to announce this collaboration with Shire, a company that we believe will bring substantial value to this project as we plan and hopefully execute the commercialization of NRP104. Shire’s CNS expertise and leadership position in the ADHD market allows them to significantly contribute to this collaboration in a manner that we believe will optimally serve the interests of our shareholders. We therefore believe that Shire will be our ideal partner for this product and we look forward to working with their outstanding team to fully realize the potential of NRP104.”
