WHEREAS, HOSPITAL, as a center for patient care, research and education, is the owner of certain PATENT RIGHTS (defined below) and desires to grant a license of those PATENT RIGHTS to COMPANY in order to benefit the public by disseminating the results of its research via the commercial development, manufacture, distribution and use of products and processes.

WHEREAS, COMPANY has the capability to commercially develop, manufacture and use PRODUCTS and PROCESSES (defined below) for public use and benefit and desires to license such PATENT RIGHTS.

For good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the PARTIES hereto agree as follows:

For a PRODUCT or PROCESS for which SELLER does not bill or invoice, NET SALES shall occur on the date on which payment is due or made to the SELLER, whichever is earlier. If the date on which such payment is due or made cannot be ascertained, NET SALES shall be deemed to have occurred on the date of the TRANSFER of the PRODUCT or PROCESS.

 

  (e) In the event that a SELLER TRANSFERS any PRODUCT or PROCESS at a discounted price that is lower than a reasonable and customary discount permitted under Section 1.15(a)(ii) above, or for non-cash consideration (whether or not at a discount), NET SALES shall be calculated based on the average non-discounted (except as provided in Section 1.15(a)(ii) above) cash amount charged to an independent third party for the same PRODUCT or PROCESS during the same REPORTING PERIOD or, in the absence of such transaction, on the fair market value of the PRODUCT or PROCESS. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Section 1.15(a)-(f), NET SALES shall not include the TRANSFER of any PRODUCT or PROCESS by a SELLER (i) for use in any clinical trial or any preclinical or other research, or (ii) for use to promote additional NET SALES, including use of detailing samples and promotional offers, except to the extent that such TRANSFERS as provided in Section 1.15(e)(ii) shall not exceed more than 1% of the total PRODUCT or PROCESS TRANSFERRED during the same REPORTING PERIOD.

4.2 Patent Cost Reimbursement. COMPANY shall reimburse HOSPITAL for all costs associated with the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of all PATENT RIGHTS (“PATENT COSTS”). As of the EFFECTIVE DATE, HOSPITAL has incurred approximately One hundred and fourteen Thousand Dollars ($114,000 U.S. Dollars) in PATENT COSTS, which amount COMPANY shall pay to HOSPITAL upon the earlier of (i) the close of the first round of financing or (ii) thirty (30) days of the execution of the ORIGINAL AGREEMENT. In addition, COMPANY shall pay to HOSPITAL, or at HOSPITAL’s request directly to patent counsel, all other PATENT COSTS within thirty (30) days of COMPANY’s receipt of an invoice for such PATENT COSTS either from HOSPITAL or HOSPITAL’s patent counsel. COMPANY agrees to indemnify, defend and hold HOSPITAL harmless from and against any and all liabilities, damages, costs and expenses arising from the failure of Company to timely pay such invoices and PATENT COSTS. HOSPITAL shall instruct its patent counsel to provide copies of all invoices detailing PATENT COSTS to HOSPITAL for HOSPITAL’s administrative files and to COMPANY.

The annual license maintenance royalty is nonrefundable; however, it shall be credited against royalties due on NET SALES and DISTRIBUTOR INCOME made during the same calendar year as such annual license maintenance royalty payment is due as provided in Sections 4.3(a)-4.3 (d) above, if any. However the annual license maintenance royalty shall not be credited against royalties due on NET SALES and DISTRIBUTOR INCOME made in any other year.

4.4 Milestone Payments. In addition to the payments set forth in Sections 4.1 through 4.3 above, COMPANY shall pay HOSPITAL milestone payments as follows:

 

4.4(a)

   

One Million Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,050,000 U.S. Dollars) upon the earlier of January 5, 2011 or receiving FDA clearance or approval of the submission titled REQUEST FOR EVALUATION OF AUTOMATIC CLASS III DESIGNATION FOR THE ZELTIQ™ DERMAL COOLING DEVICE and dated October 14, 2009.

4.4(b)

    One Million Dollars ($1,000,000 U.S. Dollars) within forty-five (45) days of reaching cumulative worldwide NET SALES of PRODUCTS and PROCESSES in the amount of Seventy Million Dollars ($70,000,000 U.S. Dollars).

4.4(c)

   

Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000 U.S. Dollars) within forty-five (45) days of the earlier of:

 

(i)     reaching cumulative worldwide NET SALES of PRODUCTS and PROCESSES in the amount of Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000 U.S. Dollars);

 

provided however, if at the time the COMPANY reaches cumulative worldwide NET SALES of PRODUCTS and PROCESSES in the amount of Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000 U.S. Dollars) a CHANGE OF CONTROL has not yet occurred and the Company is still privately held, then payment of the amount specified above in this 4.4(c) shall be made in two installments: the first installment of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000 U.S. Dollars) shall be made within 45 days after the COMPANY reaches Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000 U.S. Dollars) in cumulative worldwide NET SALES; the second installment of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000 U.S. Dollars) shall be made exactly one (1) year thereafter; or

 

Frazier-MGH License Agreement, Execution Version

11

 

(ii)    first CHANGE OF CONTROL

 

provided however, if at the time such CHANGE OF CONTROL occurs,

 

1)       if the CHANGE OF CONTROL is not an IPO, and the total consideration paid for all of the assets or shares of the Company is less than the sum of the aggregate invested capital invested in the COMPANY from inception, plus Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000 U.S. Dollars); or

 

2)       if the CHANGE OF CONTROL is an IPO, and the price per share at which the shares are offered to the public reflects a pre-money valuation of the COMPANY that is less than the sum of the aggregate capital invested in the COMPANY from inception, plus Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000 U.S. Dollars);

 

then, the milestone payment in 4.4(c) is payable only if and when the Company or its successor reaches cumulative worldwide NET SALES of PRODUCTS and PROCESSES in the amount of Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000 U.S. Dollars) as provided in 4.4(c)(i) above.

 

As of the date of this Agreement, the aggregate invested capital in the COMPANY from its inception is approximately Seventy-eight Million Dollars ($78,000,000 U.S. Dollars) and the number of fully diluted shares outstanding as of June 30, 2011 is approximately 112,000,000. For purposes of illustration only, based on the invested capital and the number of fully diluted shares described above in this paragraph, an IPO would have to be priced at approximately $0.75 per share or more for the milestone payment described in Section 4.4(c) to be payable within forty five (45) days after such IPO. An example calculation is as follows:

 

  $78.0M

+$ 6.0M

  $84.0M

 

/112M shares

$0.75/share

 

Frazier-MGH License Agreement, Execution Version

Aggregate stock issuance to HOSPITAL discussed below shall not exceed in the aggregate 3.5% of fully-diluted equity of the COMPANY.

COMPANY shall notify HOSPITAL of the achievement of the One Million Fifty Thousand Dollar ($1,050,000 U.S. Dollars) milestone, the One Million Dollar ($1,000,000 U.S. Dollars) milestone, and the Six Million Dollar ($6,000,000 U.S. Dollars) milestone set forth in Sections 4.4(a)-(c), respectively. HOSPITAL may elect to receive up to 50% of any of amounts due under subsections (b) and (c) above in COMPANY common stock or non-voting SPECIAL PREFERRED STOCK (as defined below), at such time as COMPANY achieves such milestones, by (i) notifying the COMPANY in writing of such election within thirty (30) days of notification by COMPANY of COMPANY’s achievement of such milestone, and (ii) agreeing to customary restrictions and representations required, in the reasonable opinion of COMPANY’s legal counsel, to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable laws. In the event that HOSPITAL elects to receive any of the aforementioned amounts due under subsections (b) and (c) above in COMPANY stock, COMPANY shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required consents and/or waivers, within thirty (30) days from receipt of HOSPITAL’s notice, to authorize such share of COMPANY common stock or Special Preferred Stock and to effectuate such COMPANY stock issuance, which period may be extended as mutually agreed to by the PARTIES in writing. Any Special Preferred Stock issued to HOSPITAL pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be issued upon the same terms and conditions as provided to investors of the round of financing immediately prior to such milestone payment (except that such shares shall be non-voting), and valued at the per share price set forth in the most recent of (i) a last round of financing or (ii) an independent valuation (performed annually in accordance with IRS guidelines) (such shares, once authorized, the “SPECIAL PREFERRED STOCK”).

Once COMPANY has made any particular milestone payment under Section 4.4, COMPANY will not be obligated to make any payment under Section 4.4 with respect to the re-occurrence of the same milestone. For example, the milestone payments in Sections 4.4(a)-(c) are one-time payments for only the first occurrence of each such milestone, as opposed to annual milestone payments based on annual NET SALES of PRODUCTS and/or PROCESSES in the United States.

In the event that COMPANY achieves any of the foregoing milestones through a SUBLICENSEE, and the sublicense agreement with such SUBLICENSEE provides for a milestone payment for such milestone event, which payment also meets the definition of SUBLICENSING INCOME under Section 4.6, COMPANY shall first pay HOSPITAL the milestone payment as payable hereinabove. In the event that the amount of SUBLICENSE INCOME associated with the achievement of such milestone exceeds the amount payable to HOSPITAL for achievement of such milestone as set forth above, then COMPANY shall also pay the appropriate percentage of the excess as a non-royalty SUBLICENSE INCOME payment, as provided in Section 4.6 below. For example, in the event that COMPANY meets its milestone obligation in Section 4.4(b) through a SUBLICENSEE’s achievement of such milestone, and such SUBLICENSEE’s sublicense agreement with COMPANY provides for payment by

SUBLICENSEE of a One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollar ($1,500,000 U.S. Dollars) milestone payment to COMPANY on the same event as described in Section 4.4(b), the COMPANY shall first pay HOSPITAL the One Million Dollar ($1,000,000 U.S. Dollars) payment as provided in Section 4.4(b), and shall then pay 50% of the remaining Five Hundred Thousand Dollar ($500,000 U.S. Dollars) SUBLICENSING INCOME as provided in Section 4.6(a) below.

4.5 Royalties.

 

  (a) Beginning with the first COMMERCIAL SALE in any country in the LICENSE TERRITORY, and subject to Section 4.5(d) below, COMPANY shall pay HOSPITAL during the term of the license granted under Section 2.1(a)(i), a royalty of seven percent (7%) of (i) the NET SALES of all PRODUCTS and PROCESSES and (ii) any DISTRIBUTOR INCOME.

 

  (b) If more than one royalty rate is applicable to a PRODUCT or PROCESS, only the highest of the applicable royalty rates shall apply.

 

  (c) Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.5(d) of this AGREEMENT, COMPANY may offset 50% of any royalty payments COMPANY is legally obligated to make to third parties to use patent rights that (i) dominate a PATENT RIGHT; or (ii) are necessary to commercialize the fat cooling mechanism of the device component of a PRODUCT. The amounts payable to HOSPITAL will not be reduced to less than 4% of NET SALES and DISTRIBUTOR INCOME in a reporting period, and any amounts that are not offset during that period will not be offset in future periods. As used in this subsection 4.5(c): (i) “legally obligated” means obligated by court order, settlement agreement, contract or other legally binding written commitment; (ii) a PATENT RIGHT is dominated if, in COMPANY’s reasonable judgment, it cannot reasonably be practiced without infringing a valid claim of the dominant patent; and (iii) “necessary to commercialize” means reasonably necessary to make available for COMMERCIAL SALE on a commercially reasonable basis. For purposes of clarification, this section 4.5(c) shall not apply to any royalty payments that COMPANY may be obligated to make according to the ROYALTY OFFSET AGREEMENT between HOSPITAL and COMPANY entered into concurrently with this AGREEMENT, but shall apply to other royalty payments COMPANY is obligated to make to third parties whether COMPANY’s royalty obligations to HOSPITAL are determined in accordance with Section 4.5(a) or Section 4.5(d) below.

 

  (d) In the event that COMPANY is obligated to make royalty payments according to the ROYALTY OFFSET AGREEMENT between HOSPITAL and COMPANY, COMPANY’s royalty obligations to HOSPITAL shall be as set forth in the ROYALTY OFFSET AGREEMENT entered into concurrently with this AGREEMENT.

 

  (e)

If at any time during the term of this AGREEMENT, one or more competitors introduce in any country a product that competes with an ACCESSORY PRODUCT,

 

Frazier-MGH License Agreement, Execution Version

14

 

then the PARTIES in good faith shall promptly review the facts and circumstances, and, if appropriate, negotiate an equitable adjustment to the royalty rate on NET SALES of such ACCESSORY PRODUCTS.

 

  (f) All payments due to HOSPITAL under this Section 4.5 shall be due and payable by COMPANY within thirty (30) days after the end of each REPORTING PERIOD, and shall be accompanied by a report as set forth in Section 5.4.

4.6 Non-Royalty Income. COMPANY shall pay HOSPITAL within thirty (30) days after the end of each REPORTING PERIOD the following percentages of any and all non-royalty SUBLICENSING INCOME attributable to the PRODUCT or PROCESS, that COMPANY receives:

 

  (a) 50% of any SUBLICENSING INCOME received if a sublicense is executed before the earlier of the submission of the first IDE for a PRODUCT or PROCESS or filing for the first FDA marketing approval of a PRODUCT or PROCESS.

 

  (b) 35% of any SUBLICENSING INCOME received if a sublicense is executed after the earlier of the submission of the first IDE for a PRODUCT or PROCESS or filing for the first FDA marketing approval of a PRODUCT or PROCESS, but prior to the receipt of the first FDA marketing approval of a PRODUCT or PROCESS.

 

  (c) 20% of any SUBLICENSING INCOME received if a sublicense is executed after receipt of the first FDA marketing approval of a PRODUCT or PROCESS.

4.7 Buydown Option.

 

  (a) COMPANY may, at any time following the date that is thirty-six (36) months after the first payment by COMPANY of royalties pursuant to Section 4.5 above, request a buydown of all or a portion of future royalty payments to HOSPITAL by (1) delivery to HOSPITAL of a written notice requesting a valuation of such buydown (the “Valuation Request”), and (2) following receipt of the Valuation (as defined below), delivery to HOSPITAL of a written notice of its intent to exercise the buydown (the “Buydown Notice”). Upon delivery to HOSPITAL of the Valuation Request, the PARTIES agree to proceed in accordance with Sections 4.7(b) and (c) below.

 

  (b) The Valuation shall be determined by mutual agreement of the PARTIES or, if no such agreement is reached within thirty (30) days following the delivery of the Valuation Request, the Valuation shall be determined by an appraisal process as follows:

 

  (i)

Selection of Appraisers. The PARTIES shall discuss in good faith and attempt to agree upon an investment banking or appraisal firm of recognized national standing familiar with appraisal techniques (the

 

Frazier-MGH License Agreement, Execution Version

15

 

“Appraiser”) within fifteen (15) days after the failure to reach agreement in accordance with the terms of clause (b) above. If the PARTIES are unable to agree on a single Appraiser within such fifteen day period, then each PARTY shall, within fifteen (15) additional days, designate by written notice to the other an investment banking or appraisal firm of recognized national standing familiar with appraisal techniques, and the firms designated by the PARTIES shall agree upon and jointly designate, by written notice to each PARTY, a third investment banking or appraisal firm of recognized national standing familiar with appraisal techniques who shall be the Appraiser.

 

  (ii) Evaluation Procedures. The Appraiser shall be directed to determine the market value of the buydown (the “Valuation”) and deliver a certificate setting forth its determination (the “Appraiser’s Certificate”) to each PARTY within forty-five (45) days after the date on which notice of the Appraiser’s selection is given to each PARTY. The Appraiser’s Certificate once delivered may not be retracted or modified in any respect.

 

  (iii) Cooperation. The PARTIES will cooperate in providing the Appraiser with such information within their possession that may be reasonably requested by such Appraiser for purposes of its evaluation hereunder. Each PARTY shall have full access to the Appraiser’s work papers and shall be entitled to make presentations to the Appraiser. COMPANY shall be responsible for paying reasonable costs of the Appraiser.

 

  (iv) Conclusive Determination. The determination of the Valuation made pursuant to this Section 4.7 shall be final and, subject to Section 4.7(c) below, binding on the PARTIES, shall not be appealable to or reviewable by any court or arbitrator, and may only be changed by mutual written agreement of the PARTIES.

 

  (c) Following receipt by the PARTIES of the Appraiser’s Certificate, COMPANY shall have sixty (60) days to exercise its right to buy down under this Section 4.7(c) by delivery of the Buydown Notice to the HOSPITAL. COMPANY shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to buy down up to twenty five percent (25%) of the future royalty payments. COMPANY may request, and HOSPITAL shall consider a request by COMPANY, to buy down a greater percentage of future royalties, provided however that any decision to allow COMPANY to buy down more than twenty five percent (25%) of future royalties shall be at HOSPITAL’s sole discretion. If COMPANY elects to buy down pursuant to this Section 4.7, then the PARTIES shall prepare and execute appropriate documentation reflecting the buydown, and, upon payment of the Valuation amount, COMPANY’s obligations to make royalty payments to HOSPITAL under Section 4.5 shall be reduced as provided in such appropriate documentation reflecting the buydown or shall terminate, as the case may be.

4.9 Overdue Payments. The payments due under this AGREEMENT (other than payments that are the subject of a good faith dispute between COMPANY and HOSPITAL) shall, if overdue, bear interest beginning on the first day following the REPORTING PERIOD to which such payment was incurred and until payment thereof at a per annum rate equal to two percent (2%) above the prime rate in effect on the due date as reported by The Wall Street Journal, such interest rate being compounded on the last day of each REPORTING PERIOD, not to exceed the maximum permitted by law. Any such overdue payments when made shall be accompanied by all interest so accrued. Said interest and the payment and acceptance thereof shall not preclude HOSPITAL from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment.

4.10 Board Seat Rights. HOSPITAL shall have the right to designate one board seat with full voting rights to the Board of Directors of COMPANY until the earlier of two years after the EFFECTIVE DATE or the closing date of COMPANY’s second round of financing of at least Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000 U.S. Dollars). For the period beginning on the earlier of two years after the EFFECTIVE DATE or the closing date of COMPANY’s second round of financing of at least Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000 U.S. Dollars), and ending four years after the EFFECTIVE DATE, COMPANY will fill that board seat with an individual selected by COMPANY who is an employee of either HOSPITAL or Partners Healthcare System and is reasonably satisfactory to HOSPITAL. HOSPITAL shall, at its sole discretion, have the right to relinquish its right to designate one board seat with full voting rights to the Board of Directors of COMPANY, at any time during the above four year period. In the event that HOSPITAL exercises such a right of relinquishment, HOSPITAL shall have the right to designate by notice to COMPANY an individual reasonably satisfactory to COMPANY to attend meetings as a board observer, through the remainder of such four year period. The provisions of this Section 4.10 shall not apply after a CHANGE OF CONTROL.

COMPANY shall retain and make available, and shall cause each of its AFFILIATES and SUBLICENSEES to retain and make available, such records for at least five (5) years following the end of the calendar year to which they pertain, to HOSPITAL and/or its representatives, at HOSPITAL’s expense and upon at least fifteen (15) days’ advance written notice, for inspection during normal business hours at a mutually agreeable time, to verify any reports and payments made and/or compliance in other respects under this AGREEMENT.

Frazier-MGH License Agreement, Execution Version

6.2 Copies of Documents. With respect to any PATENT RIGHT, HOSPITAL shall, and shall instruct the patent counsel prosecuting such PATENT RIGHT to, promptly copy COMPANY on all patent prosecution documents, submissions and correspondence, to keep both HOSPITAL and COMPANY fully informed of the progress of all patent applications and patents included in the PATENT RIGHTS, and to give both HOSPITAL and COMPANY reasonable opportunity prior to making submissions to comment on the type and scope of claims, the nature of supporting disclosures, and other material matters. COMPANY’s advice and suggestions shall be taken into reasonable consideration by HOSPITAL and its legal counsel in connection with such applications.

6.3 COMPANY’s Election Not to Proceed. COMPANY may elect to surrender any patent or patent application in PATENT RIGHTS in any country upon sixty (60) days advance written notice to HOSPITAL. Such notice shall relieve COMPANY from the obligation to pay for future PATENT COSTS relating to such patent or patent application in such country but shall not relieve COMPANY from responsibility to pay PATENT COSTS for such patent or patent application incurred prior to the expiration of the sixty (60) day notice period. Such U.S. or foreign patent application or patent shall thereupon cease to be a PATENT RIGHT hereunder, COMPANY shall have no further rights therein and HOSPITAL shall be free to license its rights to that particular U.S. or foreign patent application or patent to any other party on any terms.

7. INFRINGEMENT

7.1 HOSPITAL Right to Prosecute. HOSPITAL will protect its PATENT RIGHTS from infringement and prosecute infringers when, in its sole judgment, such action may be reasonably necessary, proper and justified. If COMPANY shall have supplied HOSPITAL with written evidence demonstrating to HOSPITAL’s reasonable satisfaction prima facie infringement of a claim of a PATENT RIGHT by a third party which poses a material threat to COMPANY’s rights under this AGREEMENT, COMPANY may by notice request HOSPITAL to take steps to protect the PATENT RIGHT. HOSPITAL shall notify COMPANY within forty five (45) days of the receipt of such notice whether HOSPITAL intends to prosecute the alleged infringement. If HOSPITAL notifies COMPANY that it intends to so prosecute, HOSPITAL shall, within forty five (45) days of its notice to COMPANY either (i) cause such infringement to terminate, or (ii) initiate legal proceedings against the infringer.

7.2 COMPANY Right to Prosecute. In the event HOSPITAL notifies COMPANY that HOSPITAL does not intend to prosecute said infringement, or in the event HOSPITAL does not notify COMPANY within forty-five (45) days whether it intends to prosecute the alleged infringement, or in the event HOSPITAL does not within ninety (90) days of notice by COMPANY either (i) cause such infringement to terminate or (ii) initiate legal proceedings against the infringer, then in any such event, COMPANY may, upon notice to HOSPITAL, initiate legal proceedings against the infringer at COMPANY’s expense. Before commencing

 

Frazier-MGH License Agreement, Execution Version

20

 

such action, COMPANY and, as applicable, any AFFILIATE, shall consult with HOSPITAL and shall give careful consideration to the views of HOSPITAL regarding the advisability of the proposed action and its potential effects on the public interest. COMPANY shall indemnify and hold HOSPITAL harmless from any costs, expenses or liability that HOSPITAL incurs in connection with such action, regardless of whether HOSPITAL is a party-plaintiff, except for the expense of any independent counsel retained by HOSPITAL in accordance with Section 7.5 below.

7.3 Assignment of PATENT RIGHT. If COMPANY elects to commence an action as described in Section 7.2 above, and in the reasonable opinion of COMPANY’s counsel, HOSPITAL is legally required to be named as a party to such action for standing or other purposes, HOSPITAL shall have, in its sole discretion, the option to either permit such action to be brought in its name and to be joined as a party-plaintiff, or to assign to COMPANY all of HOSPITAL’s right, title and interest in and to the PATENT RIGHT which is the subject of such action (subject to all of HOSPITAL’s obligations to the government under law and any other rights that others may have in such PATENT RIGHT). If HOSPITAL elects to permit COMPANY to commence such action to be brought in its name and to be joined as a party-plaintiff, HOSPITAL shall notify COMPANY of its election within thirty (30) days of notice from COMPANY of an action, or such shorter period as may be necessary to meet any deadlines for submitting or filing a response. If HOSPITAL at any time elects to assign its PATENT RIGHTS to COMPANY, such action by COMPANY shall thereafter be brought or continued without HOSPITAL as a party, if HOSPITAL is no longer an indispensable party; provided, however, that COMPANY shall continue to meet all of its obligations under this AGREEMENT, and COMPANY and HOSPITAL shall have the right to effectuate all the provisions of this AGREEMENT, including but not limited the provisions of Section 10 hereunder, as if the assigned PATENT RIGHT were still licensed to COMPANY.

7.4 Settlement. Neither COMPANY nor HOSPITAL shall enter into any settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any infringement action involving PATENT RIGHTS in the LICENSE FIELD without the prior written consent of the other PARTY.

7.5 Cooperation. Each PARTY agrees to cooperate reasonably in any action under this Section 7 which is controlled by the other PARTY, provided that the controlling party reimburses the cooperating party for any costs and expenses incurred by the cooperating party in connection with providing such assistance, except for the expense of any independent counsel retained by the cooperating party in accordance with this Section 7.5. Such controlling party shall keep the cooperating party informed of the progress of such proceedings and shall make its counsel available to the cooperating party. The cooperating party shall also be entitled to independent counsel in such proceedings but at its own expense, said expense to be offset against any damages received by the PARTY bringing suit in accordance with Section 7.6.

7.6 Recovery. Any award paid by third parties as the result of such proceedings (whether by way of settlement or otherwise) shall first be applied to reimbursement of the unreimbursed legal fees and expenses incurred by the controlling party, then reimbursement of such expenses of the cooperating party, and then the remainder shall be divided between the PARTIES as follows:

 

  (a)    (i)     if the amount is based on lost profits, COMPANY shall receive an amount equal to the damages COMPANY has suffered as a result of the infringement less the amount of any royalties and other payments that would have been due HOSPITAL on TRANSFERS of PRODUCT and PROCESSES lost by COMPANY and any other lost opportunities, as a result of the infringement; and

 

Frazier-MGH License Agreement, Execution Version

21

 

  (ii)     HOSPITAL shall receive an amount equal to the royalties and other payments it would have received if such TRANSFERS had been made and such other opportunities captured by COMPANY; and

 

  (b) The remainder of any awards other than those based on lost profits shall be shared equally by the PARTIES.

8. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

8.1 Indemnification.

 

  (a) COMPANY shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless HOSPITAL and its AFFILIATES and their respective trustees, directors, officers, medical and professional staff, employees, and agents and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (the “INDEMNITEES”), against any liability, damage, loss or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses of litigation) incurred by or imposed upon the INDEMNITEES or any one of them in connection with any claims, suits, actions, demands or judgments arising out of any theory of product liability (including, but not limited to, actions in the form of tort, warranty, or strict liability) concerning any PRODUCT or PROCESS used or sold pursuant to any right or license granted under this AGREEMENT, provided, however, that the above indemnification shall not apply to any liability, damage, loss or expense to the extent that it is directly attributable to the negligence, gross negligence, reckless misconduct or intentional misconduct of any INDEMNITEE.

 

  (b)

As a condition of COMPANY’s indemnity obligation in Section 8.1(a) above, HOSPITAL shall promptly notify COMPANY of any actual claim or action with respect to the subject matter of the indemnity in this AGREEMENT, provided however that a delay in giving such notice shall relieve COMPANY of its indemnity obligation only to the extent that such delay actually increases COMPANY’s ultimate indemnity obligation; and hereby gives COMPANY authority to control the defense of any third party claim or action and the defense and settlement thereof with counsel of its own choice that are reasonably acceptable to the HOSPITAL. COMPANY shall, at its own expense, defend against any actions brought or filed against any party indemnified hereunder with respect to the subject of indemnity contained herein, whether or not such actions are rightfully brought. Any INDEMNITEE shall have the right to retain its own

 

Frazier-MGH License Agreement, Execution Version

22

 

 

counsel, at its own expense, if representation of such INDEMNITEE by counsel retained by COMPANY would be inappropriate because of actual or potential differences in the interests of such INDEMNITEE and any other party represented by such counsel. COMPANY agrees to keep HOSPITAL informed of the progress in the defense and disposition of such claim and to consult with HOSPITAL prior to any proposed settlement.

 

  (c) This section 8.1 shall survive expiration of termination of this AGREEMENT.

8.2 Insurance.

 

  (a) Beginning at such time as any such PRODUCT or PROCESS is being commercially distributed, sold, leased or otherwise transferred, or performed or used (other than for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approvals), by COMPANY, an AFFILIATE, or SUBLICENSEE, COMPANY shall, at its sole cost and expense, procure and maintain commercial general liability insurance in amounts not less than $2,000,000 per incident and $2,000,000 annual aggregate and naming the INDEMNITEES as additional insureds. Such commercial general liability insurance shall provide (i) product liability coverage and (ii) broad form contractual liability coverage for COMPANY’s indemnification under Section 8.1 of this AGREEMENT. If COMPANY elects to self-insure all or part of the limits described above (including deductibles or retentions which are in excess of $250,000 annual aggregate) such self-insurance program must be acceptable to the HOSPITAL and the Risk Management Foundation. The minimum amounts of insurance coverage required under this Section 8.2 shall not be construed to create a limit of COMPANY’s liability with respect to its indemnification under Section 8.1 of this AGREEMENT.

 

  (b) COMPANY shall provide HOSPITAL with written evidence of such insurance upon request of HOSPITAL. COMPANY shall provide HOSPITAL with written notice at least fifteen (15) days prior to the cancellation, non-renewal or material change in such insurance; if COMPANY does not obtain replacement insurance providing comparable coverage prior to the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period, HOSPITAL shall have the right to terminate this AGREEMENT effective at the end of such fifteen (15) day period without notice or any additional waiting periods.

 

  (c) COMPANY shall maintain such commercial general liability insurance beyond the expiration or termination of this AGREEMENT during (i) the period that any such product, process, or service is being commercially distributed, sold, leased or otherwise transferred, or performed or used (other than for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approvals), by COMPANY or by a licensee, affiliate or agent of COMPANY and (ii) a reasonable period after the period referred to in (c) (i) above which in no event shall be less than fifteen (15) years.

 

  (d) This section 8.2 shall survive expiration of termination of this AGREEMENT.

assignment. In the event of termination of this AGREEMENT or any of the licenses hereunder, if HOSPITAL determines that a sublicense agreement is not consistent with this AGREEMENT, HOSPITAL shall terminate such sublicense agreement and HOSPITAL shall grant a direct license to each SUBLICENSEE effective as of the date of termination of this AGREEMENT provided that (i) SUBLICENSEE is not in default under its sublicense agreement, at the time of the termination of this AGREEMENT, and (ii) within thirty (30) days after the termination of this AGREEMENT, HOSPITAL notifies the SUBLICENSEE in writing that it has reasonably determined that the sublicense agreement is not consistent with this AGREEMENT. HOSPITAL shall negotiate with SUBLICENSEE in good faith the direct license from HOSPITAL to SUBLICENSEE under the PATENT RIGHTS and TECHNOLOGICAL INFORMATION (or the subset of the PATENT RIGHTS and TECHNOLOGICAL INFORMATION that was sublicensed to the SUBLICENSEE) in the sublicensed field, and such direct license shall otherwise be on the terms and conditions of the sublicense agreement between COMPANY and SUBLICENSEE to the extent that such terms are consistent with this AGREEMENT, provided however that if the economic terms in such sublicense agreement are less than the economic terms in this AGREEMENT, HOSPITAL shall not be obligated to grant a direct license unless the SUBLICENSEE agrees that the economic terms in the direct license agreement between the HOSPITAL and SUBLICENSEE shall be amended so that such terms are no less than what HOSPITAL would have received from COMPANY as a result of the sublicense from COMPANY to SUBLICENSEE and SUBLICENSEE’s performance thereunder had this AGREEMENT between HOSPITAL and COMPANY survived.

10.7 Effects of Termination of AGREEMENT. Subject to Section 10.6 above, upon termination of this AGREEMENT or any of the licenses hereunder for any reason, final reports in accordance with Section 5 shall be submitted to HOSPITAL and all royalties and other payments, including without limitation any unreimbursed PATENT COSTS, accrued or due to HOSPITAL as of the termination date shall become immediately payable. COMPANY shall cease, and shall cause its AFFILIATES and SUBLICENSEES to cease under any sublicense granted by COMPANY, all TRANSFERS and uses of PRODUCTS and PROCESSES upon such termination. The termination or expiration of this AGREEMENT or any licenses granted hereunder shall not relieve COMPANY, its AFFILIATES or SUBLICENSEES of obligations arising before such termination or expiration.

11. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW

11.1 Compliance. COMPANY shall have the sole obligation for compliance with, and shall ensure that any AFFILIATES and SUBLICENSEES comply with, all government statutes and regulations that relate to PRODUCTS, including, but not limited to, FDA statutes and regulations and the Export Administration Act of 1997, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and any applicable similar laws and regulations of any other country in the LICENSE TERRITORY.

11.2 Patent Numbers. COMPANY shall cause all PRODUCTS sold in the United States to be marked with all applicable U.S. Patent Numbers, to the full extent required by United States law. COMPANY shall similarly cause all PRODUCTS shipped to or sold in any other country to be marked in such a manner as to conform with the patent laws and practices of such country.

Any written notices, reports, waivers, correspondences or other communications required under or pertaining to this AGREEMENT, and including all payments required hereunder, shall be given by prepaid, first class, registered or certified mail or by an express/overnight delivery service provided by a commercial carrier, properly addressed to the other PARTY, which for HOSPITAL shall be as follows:

Notices and payments shall be considered timely if such notices are received on or before the established deadline date or sent on or before the deadline date as verifiable by legibly dated U.S. Postal Service postmark or dated receipt from a commercial carrier.

12.3 Amendment; Waiver. This AGREEMENT may be amended and any of its terms or conditions may be waived only by a written instrument executed by an authorized signatory of the PARTIES or, in the case of a waiver, by the PARTY waiving compliance. The failure of either PARTY at any time or times to require performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect its rights at a later time to enforce the same. No waiver by either PARTY of any condition or term shall be deemed as a further or continuing waiver of such condition or term or of any other condition or term.

12.4 Binding Effect. This AGREEMENT shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the PARTIES hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

12.5 Assignment. Except as set forth in this Section 12.5, COMPANY shall not assign any of its rights or obligations under this AGREEMENT without the prior written consent of HOSPITAL. Provided that COMPANY has fulfilled its diligence obligations as set forth in Section 3, no such consent will be required, however, to assign this AGREEMENT to a successor of the COMPANY’s business to which this AGREEMENT pertains or to a purchaser of substantially all of the COMPANY’s assets related to this AGREEMENT, so long as such successor or purchaser shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof prior to such assignment. COMPANY shall notify HOSPITAL in writing of any such assignment and provide a copy of all assignment documents and related agreements to HOSPITAL within thirty (30) days of such assignment. Failure of an assignee to agree to be bound by the terms hereof or failure of COMPANY to notify hospital and provide copies of assignment documentation shall be grounds for termination of this AGREEMENT for default.

12.6 Force Majeure. Neither PARTY shall be responsible for delays resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of such PARTY, including without limitation fire, explosion, flood, war, sabotage, strike or riot, provided that the nonperforming PARTY uses commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of nonperformance and continues performance under this AGREEMENT with reasonable dispatch whenever such causes are removed.

12.7 Use of Name. Neither PARTY shall use the name of the other PARTY or of any trustee, director, officer, staff member, employee, student or agent of the other PARTY or any adaptation thereof in any advertising, promotional or sales literature, publicity or in any document employed to obtain funds or financing without the prior written approval of the PARTY or individual whose name is to be used. For HOSPITAL, such approval shall be obtained from HOSPITAL’s Chief Public Affairs Officer.

12.8 Governing Law. This AGREEMENT shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, except that questions affecting the construction and effect of any patent shall be determined by the law of the country in which the patent shall have been granted. Each PARTY agrees to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Superior Court for Suffolk County, Massachusetts, and the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts with respect to any claim, suit or action in law or equity arising in any way out of this AGREEMENT or the subject matter hereof.

12.9 Hospital Policies. COMPANY acknowledges that HOSPITAL’s employees and medical and professional staff members and the employees and staff members of HOSPITAL’s AFFILIATES are subject to the applicable policies of HOSPITAL and such AFFILIATES, including, without limitation, policies regarding conflicts of interest, intellectual property and other matters. COMPANY shall provide HOSPITAL with any agreement it proposes to enter into with any employee or staff member of HOSPITAL or any of HOSPITAL’s AFFILIATES for HOSPITAL’s prior review and shall not enter into any oral or written agreement with such employee or staff member which conflicts with any such policy. HOSPITAL shall provide COMPANY, at COMPANY’s request, with copies of any such policies applicable to any such employee or staff member.

12.10 Severability. If any provision(s) of this AGREEMENT are or become invalid, are ruled illegal by any court of competent jurisdiction or are deemed unenforceable under then current applicable law from time to time in effect during the term hereof, it is the intention of the PARTIES that the remainder of this agreement shall not be effected thereby. It is further the intention of the PARTIES that in lieu of each such provision which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, there be substituted or added as part of this AGREEMENT a provision which shall be as similar as possible in economic and business objectives as intended by the PARTIES to such invalid, illegal or enforceable provision, but shall be valid, legal and enforceable.

12.11 Survival. In addition to any specific survival references in this AGREEMENT, Sections 1, 2.4, 5.5, 5.6, 8.1, 8.2, 9.2, 9.3, 10.6, 10.7, 11.1, 12.2, 12.7, 12.8, 12.9, 12.10, 12.11, 12.12 and 12.13 shall survive termination or expiration of this AGREEMENT.
