3.1Development.

3.1.1Responsibility for Development Generally.  TG shall have the sole right to conduct, and shall have full control and authority over, the Development of the Product in the Field, whether in the Territory or the Excluded Territory, other than the Company Development Activities (the “Global Development Activities”).  For clarity, nothing herein shall be construed to limit TG’s rights with respect to the Development of the Compound and/or Product outside the Field (whether in the Territory or the Excluded Territory) or for any purpose in the Excluded Territory.

3.1.2Regulatory Authority Required Development Activities.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that, both in the Territory and the Excluded Territory, certain additional Development activity is or will be required, whether by the applicable regulatory authorities or as a voluntary commitment by the holder of the marketing authorization, to be conducted following the granting of a marketing authorization for the Product in the Field to maintain such marketing authorization (the “Post-Marketing Commitments & Requirements”).  To TG’s Knowledge, Schedule 3.1.2 sets forth a complete and accurate list of the Post-Marketing Commitments & Requirements as of the Effective Date.  Responsibility for the conduct of such Post-Marketing Commitments & Requirements and certain other Development activities relating to the Product in the Field in the Territory shall be as follows:

(a)TG’s Responsibilities.  With respect to any Post-Marketing Commitments & Requirements that are (i) Excluded Territory-Specific PMCs/PMRs, (ii) Global PMCs/PMRs, and/or (iii) Territory-Specific CMC PMCs, TG shall have the sole right to conduct, and shall have full control and authority, over all such Post-Marketing Commitments & Requirements.

(b)Company’s Responsibilities.  Except as set forth in Schedule 3.1.2, Company shall have the sole right and responsibility for, and shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.2 and 7.3, have full control and authority over the Territory-Specific Requirements.

3.1.3Company Optional Development Activities.  In the event that Company desires to conduct any Development activities with respect to the Product in the Field in the Territory, other than the Territory-Specific Requirements (“Optional Territory-Based Development Activities” and, collectively with the Territory-Specific Requirements, the “Company Development Activities”), Company shall submit a written request to TG through the JSC, which such request shall describe, in reasonable detail, the desired Optional Territory-Based Development Activities, proposed timeline, and rationale for such activities.  TG shall, within [***] ([***]) [***] of delivery of such notice, respond to Company approving or rejecting such request or otherwise requesting additional information or discussion, TG’s consent not unreasonably to be withheld; provided, however, that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, TG shall have the right to withhold its consent if, in its reasonable discretion, it determines that any such proposed Optional Territory-Based Development Activity creates a material health or safety risk with respect to the Product or may have a material negative effect on the Commercialization of the Product (whether in the Territory, the Excluded Territory, or both).

3.2Development Costs and Payments.

3.2.1Global Development Activities.  TG shall perform the Global Development Activities at its cost, except as follows:

24


(ii) TG shall invoice Company on a Calendar Quarterly basis, and Company shall reimburse TG, for [***] ([***]) of all reasonable costs actually incurred by or on behalf of TG following the Effective Date in connection with the performance of the applicable Product Improvement Development Activities.  In the event that Company notifies TG that it is exercising the option described in this Section 3.2.1(c) later than [***] ([***]) [***] following the delivery of the Product Improvement Notice, then (i) the license granted in Section 2.1.1 shall include such Product Improvement, and (ii) TG shall invoice Company on a Calendar Quarterly basis, and Company shall reimburse TG, for [***] ([***]) of all reasonable costs actually incurred by or on behalf of TG following the Effective Date in connection with the performance of the applicable Product Improvement Development Activities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree as follows:

(i)As regards any Product Improvement relating to establishing any alternative source for manufacturing and supplying the Product (drug substance and/or drug product), the exercise period for the exercise of the option pursuant to the foregoing shall not apply and the Company shall be entitled to exercise such right at any time during the Term and shall in such case be required to reimburse TG, for [***] ([***]) of all reasonable costs actually incurred by or on behalf of TG following the Effective Date in connection with the performance of the applicable Product Improvement Development Activities.

(ii)As regards any MoA Product Improvement, in the event that Company fails to notify TG that it is exercising its option, or notifies TG that it is not exercising its option, with respect to such MoA Product Improvement within [***] ([***]) [***] following the delivery of the Product Improvement Notice, then Company shall have no rights with respect to such MoA Product Improvement, and, for clarity, TG shall have the right, whether itself or through its Affiliates or any Third Party, to Commercialize such MoA Product Improvement in the Territory; provided, however, that neither TG, its Affiliates nor a Third Party shall be entitled to Commercialize such MoA Product Improvement in the Territory under the Licensed Trademark.

(iii)For the avoidance of doubt, unless and until Company exercises its option with respect to a Product Improvement in accordance with this Section 3.2.1(c), Company shall not have any right to use such Product Improvement in the Territory, including, without limitation, that Company shall not benefit from any cost-savings that result from any CMC process improvement that constitutes a Product Improvement for which Company has not exercised its option.

(d)New CNS Indication Development Activities.  In the event that TG Develops the Product for an Indication outside the Field that is indicated to treat a disease or condition of the central nervous system (each, a “New CNS Indication”), Company shall have the option to obtain an exclusive commercialization right, on a New CNS Indication-by-New CNS Indication basis, to use any Patents Rights and/or Technology arising as a result of or in connection with such New CNS Indication Development Activities (the “New CNS Indication IP”), to the extent necessary to Commercialize the Product for such New CNS Indication in the Territory.  TG shall provide Company with written notice (a “New CNS Indication Notice”) of such New CNS Indication for the Product and a brief description of the associated Development activities (the “New CNS Indication Development Activities”) as well as a break-down, in reasonable detail, of the costs actually incurred and likely to be incurred in the future by or on behalf of TG following

25


the Effective Date in connection with the performance of the applicable New CNS Indication Development Activities.  In the event that Company notifies TG that it is exercising the option described in this Section 3.2.1(d) with respect to a particular New CNS Indication within [***] ([***]) [***] of the delivery of the applicable New CNS Indication Notice, then (i) the Parties shall enter into an addendum to this Agreement, pursuant to which the license granted in Section 2.1.1 shall be amended to include the applicable New CNS Indication IP and the Field shall be amended to reflect such New CNS Indication, (ii) TG shall invoice Company on a Calendar Quarterly basis, and Company shall reimburse TG, for [***] ([***]) of all reasonable costs actually incurred by or on behalf of TG following the Effective Date in connection with the performance of the applicable New CNS Indication Development Activities, and (iii) Company shall pay TG the milestone payments set forth in Section 8.2.1.  In the event that Company fails to notify TG that it is exercising the option described in this Section 3.2.1(d) with respect to a particular New CNS Indication during such [***] ([***]) [***] period or otherwise notifies TG earlier that it will not exercise such option, then Company shall have no rights with respect to the Product for the New CNS Indication, and, for clarity, TG shall have the right, whether itself or through its Affiliates or any Third Party, to Commercialize the Product for such New CNS Indication in the Territory; provided, however, that neither TG, its Affiliates nor a Third Party shall be entitled to Commercialize such New CNS Indication of the Product in the Territory under the Licensed Trademark.

28


doubt, Company shall not make any filings with or commitments to any Regulatory Authority(ies) in the Territory that describe and/or bind the performance or function of the SBL Supply Chain (as defined in the Supply Agreement), including, without limitation, any aspect of the Manufacturing Process (as defined in the Supply Agreement), and/or that otherwise relate to the Manufacture of the Product, without TG’s prior written consent.  To maximize market protection of the Product in the Field, Company shall, if appropriate, file for any orphan drug designations within requisite timeframes; provided, however, that the Parties acknowledge and agree that any such orphan drug designation and any other regulatory exclusivity shall not prevent TG from exercising its rights relating to the Compound and/or Product in the Territory (whether outside the Field, with respect to an MoA Product Improvement or a New CNS Indication for which Company does not exercise its option, and/or with respect to a ROFN Product for which the Parties do not enter into a definitive agreement), and Company shall cooperate, take any steps or actions, and execute and deliver any and all documents and/or instruments necessary or helpful to support TG’s full and complete  enjoyment of its rights (including, without limitation, before any applicable Regulatory Authority).  Company shall obtain and maintain Marketing Authorizations with respect to the Product in the Field in the European Union and any other Key Market, and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain and maintain Marketing Authorizations with respect to the Product in the Field in the remainder of the Territory, including in accordance with the timelines reasonably requested by TG.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Company’s failure to meet the obligations set forth in this Section 4.1 shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement, and TG will have the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.2.2, in addition to any other rights or remedies available at law or in equity.  Company hereby grants TG and its Affiliates and licensees a right of reference with respect to all Regulatory Filings, Drug Approval Applications, Marketing Authorizations, and other Regulatory Approvals relating to the Product for the purpose of Commercializing the Product (a) inside and/or outside the Field in the Excluded Territory, and (b) outside the Field within the Territory, and otherwise for the purpose of Developing and/or Manufacturing the Product.

(d)Company’s efforts described in this Section 5.3 shall comply with the diligence obligations set forth in the Hadam License.

5.3.3For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the failure to meet any of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.3 shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement, and TG will have the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.2.2, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to TG at law or in equity, provided that Company’s failure to meet any of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.3 shall not be considered a material breach of this Agreement if such failure is due to Company not being supplied with the amount of Product ordered under the Supply Agreement (for whatever reason, but excluding Company’s fault, and provided that Company has satisfied its safety stock obligations set forth in the Supply Agreement and has exhausted its safety stock of the Product). If TG exercises its termination right under this Section 5.3.3, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.2.2, it shall provide ninety ([***]) [***] prior written notice of termination.  If during the above mentioned [***] ([***]) [***] period Company cures such breach, then the termination shall be null and void.

5.4Medical Information and Materials.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

5.4.1Medical Information.  Company shall handle all medical questions or inquiries from members of the medical profession in the Territory regarding the Licensed Product in the Field.  To the extent that any inquiry relates to a medical matter for which TG has already provided a medical information answer or is the subject of a prepared medical response, Company agrees to use such materials to ensure consistent global medical information dissemination.  If a new inquiry arises, the Parties agree to discuss the issue and formulate a jointly agreeable response.

33


For the avoidance of doubt, Company shall not respond to any medical question or inquiry in the Excluded Territory.

5.4.2Medical Materials.  Company shall obtain the written approval of TG with respect to all materials prepared by Company with respect to the Product in the Field for use in the Territory, prior to the first use thereof, such approval (or rejection or other comments) to be provided by TG within [***] ([***]) [***] of receiving such medical materials; provided, however, that Company acknowledges and agrees that it shall be responsible for ensuring, and shall ensure, compliance of such medical materials with Applicable Laws and Marketing Authorizations and consistency with medical materials used by TG in the Excluded Territory and made available by TG to Company.

5.5Failure to Achieve Sales Targets

5.5.1Initial Period.  For the first [***] ([***]) Commercial [***] following the date of First Commercial Sale in the Territory (the “Initial Period”), Company shall achieve the Sales Target for the Product in the Field in the Territory.  If Company fails to achieve [***] ([***]) of the Sales Target for the Product in the Field in the Territory by completion of the Initial Period, Company shall, within [***] ([***]) [***] of the end of the second Commercial Year, pay to TG a sum equal to the difference between the royalties paid on actual sales of the Product in the Field in the Territory and the royalties payable for [***] of the Sales Target for the Product in the Field in the Territory for the Initial Period; provided, however, that such payment obligation shall not apply if the failure to achieve the Sales Target is due to a Product supply failure not attributable to Company (provided that Company has satisfied its safety stock obligations set forth in the Supply Agreement and has exhausted its safety stock of the Product).  For clarity, failure to achieve the Sales Target only applies if the First Commercial Sale already occurred in the Territory.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Commercial Years” means, with respect to the Product, the period commencing on the date of First Commercial Sale of the Product in the Field in the Territory and ending on the anniversary thereof and thereafter each successive period of [***] ([***]) [***].

5.5.3Right to Terminate.  Without limiting the generality of Sections 5.5.1 and 5.5.2, if LFB has sent or has threatened TG in writing to send to TG a termination notice pursuant to section 5.5.2 para. 2 of the LFB License (i.e., based on the grounds that TG failed to achieve [***] ([***]) of the sales targets applicable under the LFB License for [***] ([***]) consecutive

34


commercial [***]), then TG shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 11.2.4 with respect to country(-ies) within the Territory where [***] of the Sales Targets for the Product in the Field in such country were not achieved and in relation to which LFB has terminated or threatened in writing to terminate the LFB License.  In the event that, following termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.2.4 with respect to a given country(-ies) in the Territory, TG retains the right to Commercialize the Product in the Field in such terminated country(ies) and TG desires to grant to a Third Party rights in and to sell, offer to sell, import, have imported, market and otherwise Commercialize the Product in the Field in such terminated country(ies), then TG shall, to the fullest extent permissible under Applicable Law (including, but not limited to, in compliance with all vertical block exemptions or their equivalent legislations or caselaw), contractually limit such grant of rights to the territory of the terminated country(-ies), and TG shall use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with Applicable Law, to enforce such right vis-à-vis the respective Third Party in the event that TG learns of a breach of such limitations.

5.5.4Acknowledgement.  For clarity, the remedies set forth in this Section 5.5 shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies available to TG at law or in equity, including under Section 11.2.2.

5.6No Unauthorized Sales.  To the fullest extent permissible under Applicable Law, Company shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or Distributors to, directly or indirectly, (a) distribute, market, promote, offer for sale, sell, or otherwise Commercialize the Product to any customer inside or outside the Territory for subsequent sale in the Excluded Territory; (b) deliver or tender (or cause to be delivered or tendered) the Product in the Excluded Territory for use in the Excluded Territory; or (c) sell the Product to, or solicit Product sales from a customer in the Territory if Company (or its Affiliate, Sublicensee, or Distributor, as applicable) knows or has a reasonable basis to conclude that such Third Party intends to resell the Product in the Excluded Territory.  To the extent legally permissible under Applicable Laws, the packaging of the Product shall be clearly marked, in applicable language(s), “Not for export to or distribution in any of the following:  the United States, Canada, Mexico, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, and Myanmar.” Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Company shall (x) establish and implement programs, internally and with Affiliates, Sublicensees, and Distributors, to confirm compliance with this Section 5.6; (y) deliver reports to TG, on a Calendar Quarter basis and otherwise upon TG’s request, that confirm compliance with this Section 5.6 during the immediately preceding Calendar Quarter or other time period reasonably requested by TG; and (z) in any event, respond promptly to TG’s requests regarding the subject matter of this Section 5.6 and take all measures permitted under Applicable Law to address any violations or suspected violations of this Section 5.6 that TG reports to Company or of which Company otherwise becomes aware.  In addition, and in addition to any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity, in the event that Product Commercialized by or on behalf of Company (or its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or Distributors) is subsequently sold in the Excluded Territory, then Company shall reimburse TG for all lost profits arising as a result thereof, to the maximum extent permissible under Applicable Law.

5.7Records; Reports.  Company shall (a) maintain records of its Commercialization activities under this Article 5 in sufficient detail that shall fully and properly reflect all work done and results achieved in the Commercialization of the Product in the Field in the Territory, and (b)

5.8Product Recalls.  In the event that any Regulatory Authority issues or requests a recall or takes similar action in connection with the Product in the Field in the Territory, or in the event Company reasonably believes that an event, incident, or circumstance has occurred that may result in the need for a recall, market withdrawal, or other corrective action regarding the Product in the Field in the Territory (each, a “Recall”), such Recalls shall be handled in accordance with Section 8.2 of the Supply Agreement.

7.1Formation. Promptly following the Effective Date, the Parties shall establish a joint steering committee (the “JSC”) consisting of up to three (3) representatives designated by each Party, with appropriate knowledge and expertise. The JSC shall operate in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7, and shall have no authority to alter or amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement. A Party may change one (1) or more of its representatives serving on the JSC at any time upon written notice to the other Party.  Each Party may invite additional personnel of such Party to any regular or special JSC meeting; provided, however, any such additional invitee shall (a) not be deemed a member of the JSC; and (b) with respect to any Confidential Information

The Parties agree that TG shall not withhold approval of any Commercialization Plan, provided that such Commercialization Plan (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the [***]-[***]Commercialization Plan) provides that:  (a) with respect to any given Calendar Year from [***] until and including [***], Company’s overall expenditures shall be, at a minimum, the higher of (i) [***].  For the avoidance of doubt, each forecast made by Company under this Agreement shall be made in good faith and based on reasonable assumptions derived from relevant data at the time prepared by Company in the exercise of its Commercially Reasonable Efforts.  If the JSC cannot reach consensus or otherwise agree upon any Development Plan or Commercialization Plan, then either Party shall have the right to refer such disputed issues to the Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) of the Parties for resolution.  If, notwithstanding good faith, diligent efforts, the CEOs fail to reach a resolution with respect to any such disputed issues relating to the Development Plan(s) and/or Commercialization Plan(s) within [***] ([***]) [***] of such initial referral to the CEOs, then either CEO shall have the right to refer such disputed issues to binding arbitration, which shall be conducted as set forth in Schedule 7.3(B).  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge and agree that approval by TG representatives of such Development Plan(s), Development Report(s), Commercialization Plan(s), and/or Commercialization Report(s), and Company’s satisfaction of such plans and/or reports, shall not themselves be determinative of whether Company has satisfied its diligence obligations set forth in this Agreement.

37


any such activities (including the key opinion leaders involved, the sequence of timing of interactions with the concerned key opinion leaders by the TG EU Commercial Personnel and personnel of Company, and any materials used by TG EU Commercial Personnel when performing these activities), provided that TG EU Commercial Personnel shall not perform any activity in the Territory without prior discussion and agreement by the JSC.

8.3.3Records; Audit Rights.  Company and its Affiliates, Sublicensees, and Distributors shall keep and maintain for a minimum of [***] ([***]) [***]from the date of each payment of Milestone Payments and/or royalties hereunder complete and accurate records of gross sales and Net Sales and achievements of milestones by Company and its Affiliates, Sublicensees, and Distributors of the Product, in sufficient detail to allow Milestone Payments and/or royalties to be accurately determined.  TG shall have the right for a period of [***] ([***]) [***] after receiving any such payment to appoint at its expense an independent certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to Company to audit the relevant records of Company and its Affiliates, Sublicensees, and Distributors to verify that the amount of each such payment was correctly determined; provided, that, (a) if requested by Company, TG shall cause the independent certified public

40


accountant to enter into a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to Company, and (b) such independent certified public accountant may only disclose to TG whether the amounts paid are correct and the details with respect to any discrepancies.  Company and its Affiliates, Sublicensees, and Distributors shall each make its records available for audit by such independent certified public accountant during regular business hours at such place or places where such records are customarily kept, upon [***] ([***]) [***] written notice from TG.  Such audit right shall not be exercised by TG more than once in any Calendar Year, unless good cause exists.  All records made available for audit shall be deemed to be Confidential Information of Company.  The results of each audit, if any, shall be binding on both Parties absent manifest error.  In the event there was an underpayment by Company hereunder, Company shall promptly (but in any event no later than [***] ([***]) [***] after Company’s receipt of the report so concluding) make payment to TG of any shortfall.  TG shall bear the full cost of such audit unless such audit discloses an underpayment by Company of [***] ([***]) or more of the aggregate amount payable by Company to TG hereunder in any Calendar Year, in which case Company shall reimburse TG for all costs incurred by TG in connection with such audit.

8.3.4Overdue Payments.  All payments not made within the time period set forth in this Agreement shall bear interest at the rate of [***] ([***]) per month until paid in full or, if less, the maximum interest rate permitted by Applicable Laws.  Any such overdue payment shall, when made, be accompanied by, and credited first to, all interest so accrued.

8.3.6Payments; Taxes; Currency Restrictions.

(a)Payments in United States Dollars.  Except as set forth in Section 8.3.5(b) below, all payments made by Company under this Article 8 shall be made by wire transfer in United States Dollars in accordance with wire transfer instructions provided to Company in writing from time to time by TG.  If in any Calendar Quarter, Net Sales are made in any currency other than United States Dollars, such Net Sales shall be converted into United States Dollars as follows:

(A/B), where

A = foreign “Net Sales” (as defined above) in such Calendar Quarter expressed in such foreign currency; and

41


B = foreign exchange conversion rate, expressed in local currency of the foreign country per United States Dollar (using, as the applicable foreign exchange rate, the spot purchase rate published in the Financial Times on the last Business Day of each Calendar Quarter in which any payment is due and payable or any other mutually agreed upon source, for such Calendar Quarter).

(b)Taxes.  Company is responsible for all taxes, duties, import duties, assessments, and other governmental charges, however designated, which are now or hereafter imposed by any authority on Company only to the extent Company is the taxpayer according to Applicable Law. The existence of duties or import duties payable by TG according to Applicable Law (for the avoidance of doubt, not including any withholding taxes payable by TG) shall not increase accordingly the amounts payable by Company unless the local regulation governing any such duties or import duties expressly allows the taxpayer to pass this cost on to the Company, in which case the sum payable by Company to TG pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be increased by such obligation.

Without prejudice to the Gross-Up Mechanism established (and defined) below, if Applicable Laws require that Taxes be deducted and withheld from a payment made pursuant to this Article 8:

(i) Company shall (A) deduct those Taxes in the amount required by Applicable Laws from the payment; (B) pay the Taxes to the proper taxing authority; and (C) send evidence of the obligation together with proof of payment to TG within thirty (30) days following that payment, and

(ii) the Parties shall perform all acts (including by executing all appropriate documents and/or filing all appropriate tax returns, applications, filing or information with any competent governmental authority) so as to enable the other Party to take advantage of any applicable double taxation agreement or treaty or to otherwise secure any applicable exemption from or reduction in withholding Taxes, including  the delivery of any prescribed forms necessary (or which have been requested by a governmental authority) to reduce the applicable rate of withholding or relieve the obligation to withhold such tax or any other information or documentation requested by a Party to comply with its tax obligations (for example, and non-exclusively, a tax resident certificate within the meaning of the applicable double tax treaty issued by the relevant US tax authority confirming that TG is tax resident in the US within the meaning of the Spain-US tax treaty, the “DTT Residence Certificate”) and such shall be provided on an annual basis before the due date of the first payment under this Agreement for such Calendar Year, including but not limited to the form attached as Schedule 8.3.6.

Any deductions or withholding for taxes that Company is required by Applicable Law to deduct or withhold on remittance of payments to TG pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be paid forthwith by Company to the appropriate taxing authority, and the sum payable by Company to TG pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this provision), TG receives an amount equal to the sum which would have been received by TG had no such deduction or withholding been made (the “Gross-Up Mechanism”). Where Taxes have been deducted or withheld by Company from a payment made pursuant to this Article 8, TG will be required to pursue

42


commercially reasonable actions and tax filings according to Applicable Law to obtain and claim any available refund, relief, exemption, tax credit, tax benefit or others in order to eliminate any double taxation and/or to recover (or credit or refund) the taxes withheld and/or paid (in full or to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law) as promptly as possible in the US, Spain or elsewhere including but not limited to the applicable tax return corresponding to the fiscal year where such withholding or deduction has taken place. The maximum amount that is recoverable, refundable, creditable, or that otherwise could be claimed and/or received according to Applicable Law (including by any Affiliate of TG, e.g. under any group taxation regime) as a result of the application of those measures to eliminate any double taxation and/or to recover (or credit or refund) the Taxes withheld will be directly paid in cash to Company (or as an offset to any amounts due from Company to TG under this Agreement, at TG’s election) the day after the applicable tax return of the fiscal year where such relief has been used or claimed, is or should have been filed according to Applicable Law, even if it is not fully recovered, refunded, credited or otherwise received in that tax return but can potentially be in the future. The amounts recovered and to be paid to Company will be subsequently adjusted in case that they differ from the final amount resulting from an assessment received by any taxing authority and/or administrative court or courts of justice where the assessment, resolution and/or in general a decision reached by any of those bodies is final and no further appeal can be made.

The Gross-Up Mechanism will not apply where TG ceases to be tax resident in the United States. The Gross-Up shall be limited to [***] of the amounts of taxes withheld or deducted from any payment resulting from this Agreement if there is a change in the Applicable Law that modifies the withholding tax rules relevant to this Agreement applicable at the date of signing and/or in the relevant provisions of the Spain-US tax treaty applicable to this Agreement at the date of signing (modifications that do not impact the application of withholding tax or the amount of withholding tax to be applied (if any) shall not be relevant for the purpose of this sentence).

TG undertakes to (i) use best efforts to obtain a DTT Residence Certificate as soon as possible following the Effective Date, (ii) forward any such DTT Residence Certificate immediately after receipt to the Company and (iii) deliver the confirmations and documentation included as template in Schedule 8.3.6 properly completed and signed ("TG Residence Confirmation") immediately after the signing of this Agreement and before the first payment under this Agreement from the Company to TG.

Where TG does not provide Company with a proper DTT Residence Certificate and the documents in Schedule 8.3.6 of this Agreement, on an annual basis (understood as each year and referring to the specific fiscal year where payments under this Agreement are made and in relation to the TG Residence Confirmation in any case before the first payment to be made by the Company under this Agreement), or where such information and/or documents, where applicable, are missing, false, incorrect, unclear, inconclusive or inaccurate, any Loss (including for the avoidance of doubt any Tax, Withholding Tax delay payment interest, surcharges or penalties generated and/or applicable) of the Company (or the wider Neuraxpharm Group) directly caused, generated upon or occurring as a result of any such non-provision or missing, false, incorrect, unclear, inconclusive or inaccurate information and/or documentation, shall be indemnified by TG to Company and TG will hold Company harmless from any such Loss.

In the case such Loss is a Tax (and related additions, interest or late payment penalties) that arises as a result of a Tax audit assessment or any other (tax) assessment deriving from a verification

43


procedure or otherwise by any governmental authority (including any taxing authority or (tax) courts), the amount to be paid by TG to Company will be the final amount resulting from any assessment received by any such governmental authority if and when such assessment is final cannot be further appealed. Without prejudice to the above, TG will assume and pay the corresponding amounts resulting from the assessment as soon as those amounts are required to be paid by such relevant governmental authority.

For the purposes of this Section 8.3.6 and Section 11.2.5(b), any reference to TG shall mean and oblige each of TG Therapeutics, Inc. and TG Biologics, Inc. individually, and each of them shall individually be obliged to in particular provide the documentation required to be provided by them hereunder.

(c)Assessment.  Either Party may, at its own expense, protest any assessment, proposed assessment, or other claim by any governmental authority for any additional amount of Taxes, interest or penalties or seek a refund of such amounts paid if permitted to do so by Applicable Law. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in any protest by providing records and such additional information as may reasonably be necessary for a Party to pursue such protest.

Subject to paragraph b) above of Section 8.3.6), in the case the result of any assessment, proposed assessment, or other claims by any Governmental Authorities with respect to Taxes is due to missing, false, incorrect or inaccurate information provided, Taxes will be borne by the relevant taxpayer according to Applicable Law, including penalties, interest or additions to Tax attributable thereto.

(d)Currency Restrictions.  If any restrictions on the transfer of currency exist in any country in which Products are sold that prevent Company from making royalty payments thereon in United States Dollars, Company shall make royalty payments on the sales in such country in the local currency by deposit in a local bank or other depository designated in writing by TG (or, in the absence of such designation, at a local bank or other depository selected by Company and identified by Company by written notice to TG).

9.1.3Employees and Consultants.  TG and Company each hereby covenants and agrees that all of its employees and consultants, and all of the employees and consultants of its Affiliates, who have access to Confidential Information or Proprietary Materials of the other Party will, prior to having such access, be bound by written obligations to maintain such Confidential Information or Proprietary Materials in confidence that are no less stringent than those confidentiality and non-use provisions contained in this Agreement.  Each Party agrees to use, and to cause its Affiliates to use, reasonable efforts to enforce such obligations and to prohibit its employees and consultants from using such information except as expressly permitted hereunder.  Each Party will be liable to the other Party for any disclosure or misuse by its employees or consultants of Confidential Information or Proprietary Materials of the other Party.

9.1.4Trade Secrets.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, to the extent that any of TG’s Confidential Information and/or Proprietary Materials constitutes a “trade secret” under Applicable Law, the confidentiality and non-use obligations under this Agreement shall continue for so long as such Confidential Information and/or Proprietary Materials constitutes a “trade secret” under Applicable Law.  This Agreement is intended to be in addition to and not in lieu of common law or statutory protections provided for trade secrets.

47

10.5.1Third Party Infringement.

(a)Notice.  In the event either Party becomes aware of any suspected infringement or misappropriation of any Licensed Patent Rights that Covers the Development or Commercialization of the Compound or the Product in the Field in the Territory (each, an “Infringement”), that Party shall promptly notify the other Party and provide it with all details of such Infringement of which it is aware (each, an “Infringement Notice”).

(b)TG Right to Enforce.  TG and/or LFB, as applicable, shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to address any such Infringement in the Territory by taking reasonable steps, which may include the institution of legal proceedings or other actions (each, an “Action”), and to compromise or settle such Action; provided, that, (i) TG shall keep Company reasonably informed about such Action, and (ii) Company shall provide reasonable cooperation to TG and/or LFB in connection with such Action.  TG and LFB shall incur no liability to Company as a consequence of such Action or any unfavorable decision resulting therefrom, including any decision holding any such claim invalid, not infringed, or unenforceable.  All costs, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, relating to such legal proceedings or other action shall be borne by TG and/or LFB, as applicable.

(c)Right to Representation.  Company shall have the right to participate and be represented by counsel that it selects, in any Action instituted by TG or LFB under Section 10.5.1(b).  If TG and/or LFB lacks standing to initiate an Action, and Company has standing to initiate such Action, then TG and/or LFB may name Company as plaintiff in such Action or may require Company to initiate such Action at TG’s expense.

(d)Cooperation.  In any Action instituted under this Section 10.5.1, the Parties shall cooperate with and assist each other in all reasonable respects.  Upon the reasonable request of TG and/or LFB, Company shall join such Action and shall be represented using counsel of its own choice, at TG’s or LFB’s expense.

(e)Allocation of Proceeds.  Any amounts recovered by TG in connection with its activities under this Section 10.5.1 with respect to any Infringement, whether by settlement or judgment, shall, after reimbursing Company and TG for their respective reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in pursuing such Action and obtaining such recovery (which amounts shall be allocated pro rata if insufficient to cover the totality of such expenses) be retained by TG.

10.5.2Defense of Claims.

(a)Notice.  In the event that any action, suit, or proceeding is brought against either Party or any Affiliate of either Party or any Sublicensee or Distributor of Company alleging the infringement of the Technology or Patent Rights or any other intellectual property of a Third Party by reason of or the Development or Commercialization, including the Manufacture, use, or sale, of the Compound or Product, by or on behalf of Company, its Affiliates, Sublicensees, or Distributors (such action, suit, or proceeding, a “Defensive Action”), such Party shall notify the other Party within [***] ([***]) [***] of the earlier of (i) receipt of service of process in such

48


Defensive Action, or (ii) the date such Party becomes aware that such Defensive Action has been instituted and the Parties shall meet as soon as possible to discuss the overall strategy for defense of such matter.

(b)Prosecution of Defensive Actions in the Territory.  TG and/or LFB, as applicable, and only to the extent permissible under Applicable Law, shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to institute and/or control such Defensive Action in its own name and at its sole expense; and in such case, Company and/or any of its Affiliates shall have the right to separate counsel at its own expense in any such Defensive Action, and Company shall cooperate with TG and/or LFB in all reasonable respects in any such Defensive Action.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, solely upon TG’s request, Company shall defend any Defensive Action in its own name and at its sole expense; and in such case TG and/or any of its Affiliates shall have the right to separate counsel at its own expense in any such Defensive Action, and TG shall cooperate with Company in all reasonable respects in any such Defensive Action.

(c)Cooperation.  Each Party shall promptly furnish the other Party with a copy of each communication relating to the alleged infringement that is received by such Party including all documents filed in any litigation.  In no event shall either Party settle or otherwise resolve any such action, suit, or proceeding brought against the other Party or any of its Affiliates or sublicensees without the other Party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

Such cooperation shall include diligently and timely conferring and coordinating with respect to such matters to ensure compliance with applicable filing deadlines and agreeing on procedures to be followed by the Parties to ensure such compliance.  In the event that elections with respect to obtaining such patent term restoration are to be made, TG and/or LFB shall have the right to make the election with respect to Licensed Patent Rights and/or Arising IP.  The Parties agree that for those cases where TG and/or LFB initially agree not to obtain patent term restoration and/or supplemental protection certificates, Company shall nonetheless have the right to overrule such decision, and as consequence patent term restoration and/or supplemental protection certificates shall be obtained at the sole cost and expense of Company.

10.6Trademark Prosecution and Registration.  TG shall control the registration of the Licensed Trademark in the Territory.  TG shall have the sole right (but not obligation) to take any actions as are required to continue and maintain in full force and effect and enforce and defend the Licensed Trademark and registrations thereof, against infringement and misappropriation in the Territory, and shall be solely responsible for all expenses incurred in connection therewith.  Upon TG’s request, Company shall reasonably cooperate and assist with the activities contemplated by this Section 10.6.

50


Agreement immediately by providing Company with written notice of termination (the “Buy-Back Option”); provided, however, that:

(i)the Buy-Back Option may be exercised only in connection with the first occurrence of a Change of Control of TG and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not apply in relation to any subsequent agreement pursuant to which TG or its successor-in-interest would reasonably expect to undergo a Change of Control (a “CoC Agreement”) and/or any other subsequent Change of Control in relation to TG or its successor-in-interest;

(ii)the applicable CoC Agreement is signed no later than [***];

B.in the event TG or its successor-in-interest exercises the Buy-Back Option at any time after [***] but on or prior to [***] , an amount equal to [***] ([***]) the sum of any Upfront Payment and/or Milestone Payments made by Company to TG or its successor-in-interest as of the date of such exercise of the Buy-Back Option;

C.in the event TG or its successor-in-interest exercises the Buy-Back Option at any time after [***]but on or prior to [***] (or, should the relevant Change of Control be consummated less than [***]([***]) [***] prior to [***], on or prior to the date which is [***] ([***]) [***] following the consummation of the applicable Change of Control), an amount equal to [***] ([***]) the sum of any Upfront Payment and/or Milestone Payments made by Company to TG or its successor-in-interest as of the date of such exercise of the Buy-Back Option.

(b)Taxes.  Without prejudice to the Buy-Back Gross-Up Mechanism established (and defined) below, if Applicable Laws require that Taxes be deducted and withheld from a payment made pursuant to this Section 11.2.5, then:

(i)TG shall (A) deduct those Taxes in the amount required by Applicable Laws from the payment; (B) pay the Taxes to the proper taxing authority; and (C) send

51


evidence of the obligation together with proof of payment to Company within [***] ([***]) [***] following that payment, and

(ii)the Parties shall perform all acts (including by executing all appropriate documents and/or filing all appropriate tax returns, applications, filing or information with any competent governmental authority) so as to enable the other Party to take advantage of any applicable double taxation agreement or treaty or to otherwise secure any applicable exemption from or reduction in withholding Taxes, including the delivery of any prescribed forms necessary (or has been requested by a governmental authority) to reduce the applicable rate of withholding or relieve the obligation to withhold such tax or any other information or documentation requested by a Party to comply with its tax obligations (for example, and non-exclusively, a tax resident certificate within the meaning of the applicable double tax treaty) and such shall be provided before the due date of payment pursuant to this Section 11.2.5.

Any deductions or withholding for taxes that TG is required by Applicable Law to deduct or withhold on remittance of payments to Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be paid forthwith by TG to the appropriate taxing authority, and the sum payable by TG to Company pursuant to the terms of this Section 11.2.5 shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this provision), Company receives an amount equal to the sum which would have been received by Company had no such deduction or withholding been made (the “Buy-Back Gross-Up Mechanism”). Where Taxes have been deducted or withheld by TG from a payment made pursuant to this Section 11.2.5, Company will be required to pursue commercially reasonable actions and tax filings according to Applicable Law to obtain and claim any available refund, relief, exemption, tax credit, tax benefit or others in order to eliminate any double taxation and/or to recover (or credit or refund) the taxes paid withheld and/or paid (in full or to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law) as promptly as possible in the US, Spain or elsewhere including but not limited to the applicable tax return corresponding to the fiscal year where such withholding or deduction has taken place. The maximum amount that is recoverable, refundable, creditable, or that otherwise could be claimed and /or received according to Applicable Law (including by any Affiliate of TG, e.g. under any group taxation regime) as a result of the application of those measures to eliminate any double taxation and/or to recover (credit or refund) the Taxes withheld will be directly paid in cash to TG the day after the applicable tax return of the fiscal year where such relief has been used, is or should have been filed according to Applicable Law, even if it is not fully recovered, refunded, credited or otherwise received in that tax return but can potentially be in the future. The amounts recovered and to be paid to TG will be subsequently adjusted in case that they differ from the final amount resulting from an assessment received by any taxing authority and/or administrative court or courts of justice where the assessment, resolution and/or in general a decision reached by any of those bodies is final and no further appeal can be made.

The Buy-Back Gross-Up Mechanism will not apply where Company ceases to be tax resident in Spain.

The Buy-Back Gross-Up shall be limited to the [***] of the amounts of taxes withheld or deducted from any payment resulting from this Agreement if there is a change in the Applicable Law that modifies the withholding tax rules relevant to this Agreement applicable at the date of signing

52


and/or in the relevant provisions of the Spain-US tax treaty applicable to this Agreement at the date of signing (modifications that do not impact the application of withholding tax or the amount of withholding tax to be applied (if any) shall not be relevant for the purpose of this sentence).

11.4.2Company shall cease to use the Licensed Trademark and any Marketing Authorization obtained in accordance with this Agreement and shall promptly transfer such Marketing Authorizations and/or orphan drug designations to TG at no cost for TG.

14.11Assignment and Successors.  Neither this Agreement nor any obligation of a Party hereunder may be assigned by either Party without the consent of the other, except that each Party may assign this Agreement and the rights, obligations and interests of such Party, (a) in whole or in part, to any of its Affiliates, provided, however, that the assigning Party shall continue to remain responsible for the exercise of the rights and the performance of the obligations under this Agreement of any such Affiliates and provided further that, if such assignee ceases to be an Affiliate, such assignment shall be automatically reversed and such assigned rights, obligations and interests shall be deemed automatically by that fact re-assigned to the assigning Party immediately before such cessation, and (b) in whole, but not in part, to any purchaser of all of its assets or all of its assets to which this Agreement relates; provided, however, that any such purchaser shall, for the avoidance of doubt, acknowledge and agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation and for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions set forth in Sections 2.2 and 2.4.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, Company acknowledges and agrees that TG shall have the right to assign, make collateral assignments of, and/or otherwise encumber, in whole or in part, this Agreement in connection with Third Party financing transactions of TG and/or its Affiliates either on a generally secured basis or, if pertaining exclusively or primarily to this Agreement then only if such collateral assignment or other encumbrance does not and may not, in the ordinary course (which shall, for the avoidance of doubt, include enforcement of such assignment or other encumbrance) , lead to (i) TG no longer being a party to this Agreement and/or (ii) the performance of obligations by TG hereunder being impaired.  Additionally, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, Company shall, and shall request the applicable Permira branded funds managed or advised by Permira Beteiligungsberatungs GmbH (or one of its Affiliates) to in good faith consider inviting TG to participate in a structured auction process regarding the sale of Company or Neuraxpharm group. Should strategic bidders also be invited to participate in such process, Company shall notify TG that a structured sales process has been initiated at the point in time at which an information memorandum or similar marketing material typically used to obtain non-binding offers are sent out to interested parties.

14.12Force Majeure.  Except with respect to breaches of any payment obligations set forth herein: neither Company nor TG shall be liable for failure of or delay in performing obligations set forth in this Agreement, and neither shall be deemed in breach of its obligations, if such failure or delay is due to a Force Majeure.  In event of such Force Majeure, the Party affected

shall use reasonable efforts to cure or overcome the same and resume performance of its obligations hereunder.

14.13Interpretation.  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 and not in a favor of or against either Party, regardless of which Party was generally responsible for the preparation of this Agreement.  In addition, unless a context otherwise requires, wherever used, the singular shall include the plural, the plural the singular, the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders, the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense (and/or), and the word “including” is used without limitation and means “including without limitation”.

14.14Integration; Severability.  This Agreement, together with the Supply Agreement, sets forth the entire agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to such subject matter.  If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid or is ruled invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction or is deemed unenforceable, it is the intention of the Parties that the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected.

14.15Further Assurances.  Each of TG and Company agrees to duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts and things, including, without limitation, the filing of such additional assignments, agreements, documents, and instruments, as the other Party may at any time and from time to time reasonably request in connection with this Agreement or to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of, or to better assure and confirm unto such other Party its rights and remedies under, this Agreement.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Company agrees, from time to time and upon TG’s reasonable request, to enter into such further agreements as necessary under Applicable Laws, including, without limitation, data protection agreements, quality agreements, and others, as needed.

14.16Joint and several liability. TG Therapeutics, Inc. and TG Biologics, Inc. shall be jointly and severally liable for the obligations of TG under this Agreement.
