19.6 Interest. Payments made under this Agreement shall be considered to be made as of the day on which there were sent.

19.7 Tax Matters.

The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to structure all Payments to minimize the applicability of withholding taxes to the maximum extent consistent with Applicable Laws. If any Payment is subject to a deduction or withholding of Tax pursuant to Applicable Laws, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform all acts (including by executing all appropriate documents) so as to enable the payee 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. In the event there is no applicable double taxation (or other exemption) agreement or treaty, or if an applicable double taxation (or other) agreement or treaty reduces but does not eliminate such withholding Tax, the payer Party shall pay the applicable Tax to the appropriate governmental authority, shall provide to the payee Party evidence of such payment, and shall deduct the amount paid from the Payment due the payee Party. If the payer Party has to pay applicable withholding tax because of a failure by the payer Party to complete any procedural formalities necessary for it to obtain authorization to make payments pursuant to this Agreement without the obligation to make deduction or withholding, then the amount due from the payer Party to ARIAD US shall be increased to an amount which (after making any deduction for withholding in respect of taxes) leaves an amount equal to the payment which payee Party would have received if no such deduction or withholding had been required. Any withholding tax imposed on a payment from an ARIAD SWISSCO Affiliate, Sublicensee or distributor in the Territory to ARIAD SWISSCO is the responsibility of ARIAD SWISSCO.

22.3 Procedure. The following shall apply to all Proceedings subject to the obligations set forth in Sections 22.1 and 22.2 above:

 

  22.3.1 A Party or its indemnified entity seeking indemnification pursuant to Section 22.1 or Section 22.2 (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give to the Party from whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) prompt written notice (a “Claim Notice”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any Proceeding for which the Indemnified Party believes the Indemnifying Party may be liable under Section 22.1 or Section 22.2 of this Agreement, as the case may be. The failure by any Indemnified Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from Liability under Section 22.1 or Section 22.2 of this Agreement, as the case may be, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced in any material respect as a result of such failure. A Claim Notice shall describe the nature of the claim or Proceeding and shall indicate the amount of Losses (estimated to the extent that the Losses in respect of any claim or Proceeding are reasonably capable of being estimated); provided, however, that the failure to estimate Losses (or the inaccuracy thereof) shall not affect the validity of a Claim Notice or the amount of Losses to which the Indemnified Party may be entitled.

 

  22.3.2 The Indemnifying Party shall have the right at its discretion to control the defense of any claim or Proceeding and the right to settle or compromise any such claim or Proceeding; provided that the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party shall be required in connection with any settlement or compromise unless such settlement, compromise, discharge or consent to judgment (i) includes the delivery of a written release from all Liability in respect of such claim or Proceeding, (ii) does not contain any admission or statement suggesting any wrongdoing or Liability on behalf of the Indemnified Party, and (iii) does not contain any equitable order, judgment or term which in any manner affects, restrains or interferes with the business of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates. The Indemnifying Party shall exercise such right by delivering written notice of its intent to undertake the defense of such claim or Proceeding to the Indemnified Party within [***] after the receipt of a Claim Notice. If the Indemnifying Party elects to control the defense of the claim or Proceeding, then all expenses and legal fees of such defense shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to control the defense of the claim or Proceeding, then the Indemnified Party may participate therein through counsel of its choice, but the cost of such counsel shall be borne solely by the Indemnified Party. Only in the event that the Indemnifying Party does not assume such defense within [***] after its receipt of a Claim Notice or the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it will not assume such defense, the Indemnified Party may control the defense of such claim or Proceeding at the Indemnifying Party’s cost and the Indemnified Party may settle the claim or Proceeding on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party, who shall be bound by the result.

  22.3.3 The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall at all times use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, reasonably appraised of the status of the defense of any matter the defense of which it is maintaining and to cooperate in good faith with the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, with respect to the defense of any such matter.

 

22.4 EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE SUPPLY AGREEMENT OR THE QUALITY AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, AND EACH PARTY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, OR EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, COMMERCIAL POTENTIAL, CAPACITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE WITH RESPECT TO THE KNOW-HOW, THE PATENTS AND/OR THE PRODUCT. NEITHER PARTY NOR ANY OF ITS RESPECTIVE EMPLOYEES OR REPRESENTATIVES IS AUTHORIZED TO GIVE ANY WARRANTIES OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATION ON BEHALF OF THE OTHER PARTY.

 

22.5 SUBJECT TO SECTION 22.6 AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.7, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER OF THE PARTIES SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE OR NOT AND REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF SUCH DAMAGES OR LOSSES.

 

22.6 THE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 22.4 AND 22.5 SHALL NOT LIMIT OR RESTRICT: (A) THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF EITHER PARTY WITH RESPECT TO LOSSES AWARDED TO THIRD PARTY CLAIMANTS IN THIRD PARTY PROCEEDINGS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO THE OBLIGATIONS IN SECTION 22.1 OR SECTION 22.2; OR (B) ANY LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED OR EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

 

22.7 Each Party agrees to procure and maintain in full force and effect during the Term valid and collectible insurance policies in connection with its activities as contemplated herein in amounts that are normal and customary in the pharmaceutical industry generally for prudent companies similarly situated. In particular, ARIAD SWISSCO’s coverage shall have limits of Liability which are commercially reasonable in the Territory but shall be [***] per loss occurrence. [***]. Each Party shall provide to the other Party upon such other Party’s request a certificate evidencing the coverage required hereby and the amount thereof. Each Party’s coverage shall be with a reputable insurance company and shall have to be maintained for not less than [***] following expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

ARTICLE 23 – THE PATENTS

 

23.1 Patent Marking. ARIAD SWISSCO acknowledges and agrees that any of the Product Commercialized by it shall be marked with a notice of patent rights as necessary or desirable, and legally possible, under Applicable Law to enable the Patents to be enforced to the maximum extent permissible under Applicable Laws.

 

23.2 Claims Relating to Patent Validity. ARIAD SWISSCO shall reasonably cooperate with ARIAD US in connection with any claim, action, lawsuit, hearing, patent office review or other Proceeding relating to the validity of the Patents in the Territory, including by being joined as a necessary party to any such Proceeding [***]. For clarity, any Proceeding attacking the validity of a Patent in connection with an action under Section 23.4 (for example, an alleged infringer’s attack on the validity of a Patent as a defense to an allegation of infringement of such Patent) shall be dealt with pursuant to Section 23.4.

 

23.3 Patent Prosecution and Maintenance.

 

  23.3.1 ARIAD US shall have the first right to prepare, file, prosecute (including any reissues, re-examinations, post-grant proceedings, requests for patent term extensions, supplementary protection certificates, interferences, and defense of invalidation or opposition proceedings or of other challenges to validity or enforceability) and maintain the Patents in the Territory, and shall keep ARIAD SWISSCO informed regarding any such matters. ARIAD US shall consider in good faith all comments, recommendations, analysis, and strategies provided by ARIAD SWISSCO for patent protection in the Territory. ARIAD SWISSCO shall provide reasonable assistance in connection with any such prosecution and maintenance, including reasonably cooperating with ARIAD US, as may be reasonably requested by ARIAD US from time to time for the purpose of filing for and obtaining patent extensions and supplementary or complementary protection certificates, if available, of the Patents under the relevant Applicable Laws of the Territory. [***] shall be responsible for any Patent prosecution and maintenance costs for the Territory and shall reimburse [***] of [***] costs related to such Patent prosecution and maintenance for the Territory within [***] of receipt of an invoice therefor incurred in relation to its obligations under this Section 23.3.1.

 

  23.3.2 In the event that ARIAD US intends to cease to prosecute, or maintain a Patent in a country in the Territory, ARIAD US shall provide reasonable prior written notice to ARIAD SWISSCO of such intention (which notice shall, in any event, be given no later than [***] prior to the next deadline for any action that may be taken with respect to prosecution or maintenance of such ARIAD US Patent in such country), and ARIAD SWISSCO shall thereupon have the option, in its sole discretion, to assume the control and direction of the, prosecution and maintenance of such Patent in such country. Upon ARIAD SWISSCO’s written exercise of such option, ARIAD SWISSCO shall assume responsibility and full control for the prosecution and maintenance of such patent in such country at its own expense.

Portions of this Exhibit, indicated by the mark “[***],” were omitted and have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Registrant’s application requesting confidential treatment pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.


23.4 Patent Enforcement.

 

  23.4.1 Each Party shall, within [***], inform the other Party in writing upon its becoming aware of any potential infringement or misappropriation of any of the Patents in the Territory. ARIAD SWISSCO shall provide reasonable assistance in connection with any Proceedings to stop such infringement and/or recover damages for such infringement in the Territory (including joining any action if necessary), as may be reasonably requested by ARIAD US. ARIAD US shall have the first right to control any such Proceedings and ARIAD SWISSCO shall reimburse ARIAD US [***] of ARIAD US’s costs related to such Proceedings within [***] of receipt of an invoice therefor incurred in relation to its obligations under this Section. ARIAD SWISSCO shall also have the option to be represented by counsel of its own choice to participate in the Proceedings in the Territory [***]. For clarity, the foregoing option shall not relieve ARIAD SWISSCO’s obligation to reimburse ARIAD US [***] of ARIAD US’s costs related to such Proceedings.

 

  23.4.2 If ARIAD US does not institute an action or proceeding or take other action to prevent or terminate such possible infringement in the Territory prior to the earlier of (i) [***] following receipt of notice of such possible infringement or (ii) in the case an injunction may be required, as soon as such injunction is reasonably necessary, then ARIAD SWISSCO shall have the right to institute an action or proceeding or take other appropriate action that it believes is reasonably required to prevent or terminate such possible infringement in the Territory, including possible infringement of the Patents in the Territory if (and only if) such possible infringement involves the development or commercialization of a product that contains the Compound, with the reasonable assistance and cooperation of ARIAD US. In the event that ARIAD SWISSCO institutes an action or proceeding or takes other appropriate action that it believes is reasonably required to prevent or terminate such possible infringement in the Territory, ARIAD SWISSCO reserves the right to have sole control over such proceedings, subject to Section 23.4.4.

 

  23.4.3 In the event that ARIAD SWISSCO becomes aware of any challenge to the validity of any Patent in a country in the Territory, ARIAD SWISSCO shall provide reasonable prior written notice to ARIAD US of such challenge (which notice shall, in any event, be given within [***] of ARIAD SWISSCO becoming aware of such challenge), and ARIAD US shall thereupon have the option, in its sole discretion, to assume the control and direction of any Proceedings in relation to such Patent in such country.

 

  23.4.4 ARIAD SWISSCO shall not settle any action or Proceedings in a manner that would have a material adverse effect on the rights or interests of ARIAD US or its Affiliates without the prior written consent of the ARIAD US.

 

  23.4.5

Any recoveries from such Proceedings or amounts received by ARIAD US or ARIAD SWISSCO from the settlement of the same shall be allocated as

Portions of this Exhibit, indicated by the mark “[***],” were omitted and have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Registrant’s application requesting confidential treatment pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.


  follows: First, each Party shall be reimbursed for its direct, out-of-pocket expenses for conducting, or cooperating with, such Proceeding, and second, the balance shall be [***], provided that any recovery or settlement amount that includes countries outside of the Territory shall be [***], acting reasonably and in good faith, prior to such allocation between the Parties.

 

  23.4.6 ARIAD SWISSCO shall have no right to sue or institute an action or proceeding or take other action to prevent infringement of any Patent other than as set out in this Section 23.4.

 

23.5 Infringement Claims by Third Parties.

 

  23.5.1 Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any allegation by a Third Party in the Territory that any Compound and/or Product development, Commercialization (including import or export) or manufacturing activities conducted by the Parties pursuant to this Agreement infringe or misappropriate or may infringe or misappropriate the Intellectual Property Rights in the Territory of such Third Party (a “Third Party Infringement Claim”). The Parties shall discuss which Party shall defend the Third Party Infringement Claim, and absent mutual agreement otherwise, each Party shall have the right to control the defense of any such Third Party Infringement Claim brought against it, by counsel of its own choice. If a Third Party Infringement Claim is brought against one Party (the “Defending Party”) but not the other Party, the non-Defending Party shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in such Third Party Infringement Claim by counsel of its own choice.

 

  23.5.2 Each Defending Party shall keep the other Party reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any Third Party Infringement Claim. Each Defending Party agrees to provide the other Party with copies of all pleadings filed in any suit or proceeding relating to such Third Party Infringement Claim. The Defending Party may enter into a settlement or compromise of any Third Party Infringement Claim, provided that, if such settlement or compromise would admit Liability on the part of the non-Defending Party or any of its Affiliates or would otherwise have a material adverse effect on the rights or interests of the non-Defending Party or its Affiliates, the Defending Party shall not enter into such settlement or compromise without the prior written consent of the non-Defending Party.

 

  23.5.3 If a Third Party Infringement Claim is brought against both Parties, or initially against one Party and the other Party is subsequently joined to the Proceedings, all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Defending Party in defending such Third Party Infringement Claim in the Territory (including outside counsel fees), and all amounts payable by either Defending Party as a judgment based on such Third Party Infringement Claim or in settlement of such Third Party Infringement Claim (excluding payments pursuant to any Third Party License, which is governed by Section 23.6), shall be paid for by the Parties as follows: [***] by ARIAD SWISSCO and [***] by ARIAD US.

  23.5.4 If a Third Party Infringement Claim is brought against only one Defending Party and the other Party is not subsequently joined to the Proceedings, all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Defending Party in defending such Third Party Infringement Claim in the Territory (including outside counsel fees), and all amounts payable by such Defending Party as a judgment based on such Third Party Infringement Claim or in settlement of such Third Party Infringement Claim (excluding payments pursuant to any Third Party License, which is governed by Section 23.6), shall be [***].

 

  23.5.5 Any recovery by a Party of any sanctions or other amounts awarded to such Party against a Third Party asserting a Third Party Infringement Claim shall be applied in the same manner as recoveries in an action as set forth in Section 23.4.5.

 

  23.5.6 If a Defending Party elects to enter into an agreement with a Third Party to obtain a license under such Third Party’s Intellectual Property Rights (“Third Party License”) in settlement of a Third Party Infringement Claim asserted by such Third Party, the provisions of Section 23.6 shall apply.

 

23.6 Third Party Licenses.

 

  23.6.1 Territory-Only Third Party License.

 

  (a) With respect to any Third Party License under which ARIAD SWISSCO is granted rights relating to its exercise of its license grant under this Agreement and which does not relate to the retained rights of ARIAD US with respect to the Reserved Territory (“Territory-Only Third Party License”), the Parties (through the JSC) shall discuss (1) whether such license is necessary or (2) or whether such license is useful (but not necessary) and, in the case of this clause (2), whether to obtain such Territory-Only Third Party License. A Territory-Only Third Party License shall be considered necessary (and the JSC shall have no discretion with regarding to such determination) if the intellectual property included in such Third Party license covers the Compound or Product or the Manufacture thereof in accordance with Section 6.4.

 

  (b) If a Territory-Only Third Party License is necessary for ARIAD SWISSCO to exercise its license grant under this Agreement, ARIAD SWISSCO shall have the responsibility for negotiating such license and shall have the final decision-making authority regarding the terms of such license, subject to Section 23.6.3.

 

  (c)

If a Territory-Only Third Party License is useful (but not necessary) for ARIAD SWISSCO to exercise its license grant under this Agreement, the JSC shall determine (with neither Party having final decision-making authority) whether to obtain such Territory-Only Third Party License and, if such a determination is made to obtain such license, ARIAD SWISSCO shall have responsibility for negotiating such license in accordance with terms agreed upon by the

  Parties. If the Parties are unable to agree upon terms for a useful Territory-Only Third Party License that the JSC has determined to obtain, ARIAD SWISSCO shall have the final decision-making authority regarding the terms of such license, subject to Section 23.6.3.

 

  (d) In the event ARIAD SWISSCO enters into a Territory-Only Third Party License (i) in accordance with Section 23.6.1(b) or (ii) in accordance with Section 23.6.1(c) in the event of a determination by the JSC to obtain such license, ARIAD SWISSCO shall have the right to deduct [***] of all payments paid pursuant to such Territory-Only Third Party License from the royalties payable to ARIAD US pursuant to Section 19.2; provided, that in no event shall the royalty rate otherwise payable to ARIAD US pursuant to Section 19.2.1 and Section 19.2.2 be reduced by more than [***] in the aggregate; and provided further that, if, but for the preceding proviso, the deduction under this Section 23.6.1(d) would have reduced a royalty payment made by ARIAD SWISSCO to ARIAD US by more than [***], then the amount of such deduction that exceeds [***] will be carried over to subsequent royalty payments until the full amount that ARIAD SWISSCO would have been entitled to deduct (absent the preceding proviso) is deducted.

 

  (e) In the event ARIAD SWISSCO enters into a Territory-Only Third Party License in accordance with Section 23.6.1(c) with absence of a determination by the JSC to obtain such license, ARIAD SWISSCO shall have the sole responsibility for making any payments due thereunder.

 

  23.6.2 Global Third Party License.

 

  (a) With respect to any Third Party License to (i) Develop or Manufacture Product in the Territory and the Reserved Territory, or (ii) Commercialize Product in the Field in the Territory and the Reserved Territory (“Global Third Party License”), the Parties (through the JSC) shall determine whether to obtain such Global Third Party License and which Party will be responsible for negotiating such license (it being agreed that if such Global Third Party License relates to the US then ARIAD US shall be the Party responsible). If the Parties (through the JSC) do not agree to obtain such Global Third Party License, cannot agree upon the negotiating Party or cannot agree on the final form of such Global Third Party License, ARIAD SWISSCO may enter into a Territory-Only Third Party License pursuant to the terms of 23.6.1.

 

  (b) If the Parties proceed with a Global Third Party License, ARIAD SWISSCO shall be responsible for [***] of payments owed under such Global Third Party License that are attributable to the Territory (and may deduct such amounts from the royalties payable to ARIAD US pursuant to Section 19.2) and ARIAD US shall be responsible for [***] of the payments attributable to the Territory and [***] of the payments attributable to the Reserved Territory.

  23.6.3 For Territory-Only Third Party Licenses other than those for which ARIAD SWISSCO has sole responsibility for payments, ARIAD SWISSCO shall keep ARIAD US reasonably informed with respect to the negotiations and deal terms relating to such license (including scope of the license and financial terms) and the ARIAD SWISSCO shall consider in good faith any comments, recommendations or analysis provided by ARIAD US. With respect to any Global Third Party License, the negotiating Party shall keep the other Party reasonably informed with respect to the negotiations and deal terms relating to such license (including scope of the license and financial terms), provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to comment and consider in good faith all comments provided by the other Party and shall secure the written consent of the other Party prior to executing such Global Third Party License.

ARTICLE 24 – CONFIDENTIALITY

 

24.1

Each Party shall treat as strictly confidential any information, data and/or document provided orally, visually, in writing or other form by or on behalf of the other Party or its Affiliates hereunder and not generally known to the trade and non-public information relating to the business of the disclosing Party or its Affiliates (all hereinafter referred to as the “Confidential Information), and each receiving Party shall use the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party solely for the purpose of and in accordance with this Agreement. Each Party may disclose Confidential Information of the other Party to its employees and agents and to the employees and agents of its Affiliates, Sublicensees (in the case of ARIAD SWISSCO), Subcontractors (in the case of ARIAD SWISSCO) and other Third Party contractors solely for purposes, and only to the extent reasonably required, to facilitate the performance of such Party’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, provided that each such employee and agent and such Sublicensee, Subcontractor or other Third Party contractor, as applicable, has confidentiality obligations with such receiving Party containing provisions that protect the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party that are materially equivalent to, or more protective than, the provisions of this ARTICLE 24. In addition, ARIAD US and ARIAD SWISSCO each agrees that the other Party may disclose its Confidential Information (a) to such other Party’s legal and financial advisors, (b) as reasonably necessary in connection with an actual or potential (i) debt or equity financing of such other Party, (ii) merger, acquisition, consolidation, share exchange or other similar transaction involving such Party and any Third Party, or (iii) prosecution, defense or enforcement of any patent pursuant to ARTICLE 23 or of any litigation, (c) as reasonably required in preparing Regulatory Documentation and obtaining Registrations, (d) to comply with Applicable Law or any obligation in this Agreement, (e) in communications with existing or bona fide prospective acquirers, merger partners, lenders (including PDL BioPharma Inc. under the PDL Agreements) or investors, and consultants and advisors in connection with transactions or bona fide prospective transactions with the foregoing, in each case on a “need-to-know” basis and under appropriate confidentiality provisions substantially equivalent to those of this Agreement; provided, however, that the receiving Party

Except as set forth in the two preceding sentences, neither Party shall make Confidential Information of the other Party available to any Third Party, or any of its Affiliates, except in accordance with Section 24.3 or to applicable government agencies as required by Applicable Laws, and in this case (1) solely to the extent required by such Applicable Laws (based on advice of legal counsel) and (2) only upon exercise of its reasonable efforts to cause said agencies to maintain confidentiality thereof.

The purposes for such prior submission are: (i) to provide the non-Developing Party with the opportunity to review and comment on the contents of the proposed publication or presentation; and (ii) to identify any Confidential Information to be deleted from the proposed publication or presentation. Any Confidential Information identified by the non-Developing Party shall be deleted prior to publication or presentation.

 

24.3 Notwithstanding expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, the foregoing confidentiality and non-use obligations shall continue for a period of [***] after expiration or termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this ARTICLE 24 shall in any way restrict or impair the right of either Party to use, disclose or otherwise deal with Confidential Information of the disclosing Party, which the receiving Party can demonstrate by competent written evidence:

 

  24.3.1 is or hereafter becomes part of the public domain through no act or omission of the receiving Party, its employees, Affiliates, sublicensees and/or subcontractors; or

  24.3.4 at the time of disclosure, was known by the receiving Party or an Affiliate, sublicensee or subcontractor other than as a result of disclosure to such party by the disclosing Party;

ARTICLE 26 – TERMINATION

 

26.1

Uncured Material Breach. If either Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) believes that the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) is in material breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement, then the Non-Breaching Party may deliver written notice of such material breach to the Breaching Party specifying the nature of the breach (a “Default Notice”). The Breaching Party shall have [***] (or [***] in the event of a payment breach) from the receipt of the Default Notice to cure such breach or to dispute the allegation of breach; provided that, if such breach (other than a payment breach) is capable of being cured, but cannot be cured within such [***] period, and the Breaching Party initiates actions to cure such breach within such period and thereafter diligently pursues such actions, the Breaching Party shall have such additional period as is reasonable to cure such breach, but in no event will such additional period exceed [***]. If the Breaching Party fails to cure, and fails to dispute, such breach within the applicable cure period, then the Non-Breaching Party may pursue any or all available remedies at law or equity but may not terminate this Agreement; provided, that, if such material breach materially diminishes, or materially frustrates, the value of this Agreement taken as a whole to the Non-Breaching Party, then the Non-Breaching Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (1) if such material breach and failure to cure is solely with respect to a particular country or countries, such right to terminate this Agreement shall be solely with respect to such country or countries, as applicable, or (2) if such material breach and failure to cure is not solely with respect to a particular country or countries, such right to terminate this Agreement shall be with respect to this Agreement in its entirety. The Non-Breaching Party may effectuate such termination by giving the Breaching Party written notice of termination, which termination shall be effective

  immediately upon the Breaching Party’s receipt of such notice of termination. If the Breaching Party disputes in good faith the existence or materiality of a breach specified in a Default Notice or disputes any allegation that the Breaching Party failed to cure or remedy such breach, and the Breaching Party provides written notice of such dispute to the Non-Breaching Party within the above applicable cure period, the matter shall be addressed under the dispute resolution procedures in ARTICLE 29 (and during the pendency of such dispute resolution, the Non-Breaching Party may not terminate this Agreement). If, as a result of the application of such dispute resolution procedures, the Breaching Party is determined to be in material breach of any provision of this Agreement (an “Adverse Ruling”), and if the Breaching Party fails to complete the actions specified by the Adverse Ruling to cure such material breach within [***] after its receipt of such Adverse Ruling (or within [***] in the case of an Adverse Ruling resulting from a payment breach), then, if such Adverse Ruling specifies that such material breach materially diminishes, or materially frustrates, the value of this Agreement taken as a whole to the Non-Breaching Party, the Non-Breaching Party may terminate this Agreement with respect to such particular country or countries, or with respect to this Agreement in its entirety, as applicable in accordance with clauses (1) and (2) above, by giving the Breaching Party written notice of termination, which termination shall be effective immediately upon the Breaching Party’s receipt of such notice of termination.

  26.2.2

All licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction, licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Parties agree that ARIAD SWISSCO, as licensee of such rights under this Agreement, shall retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction. The Parties further agree that, in the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against ARIAD US under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any analogous provisions in any other country or jurisdiction which proceeding is not terminated or withdrawn within [***] after such commencement, ARIAD SWISSCO shall be entitled (unless ARIAD US elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement) to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual property and all embodiments of such intellectual property necessary to exercise its license rights granted hereunder, which, if not already in the ARIAD SWISSCO’s possession, shall be promptly delivered to it (i) after [***] following any such commencement of a bankruptcy

26.5 Termination by ARIAD US. If ARIAD SWISSCO and its Affiliates fail to meet at least [***] of the minimum expenditure obligations set forth in Section 15.2 in each of two (2) consecutive calendar years, and if ARIAD SWISSCO fails to exceed by at least [***] the minimum expenditure obligations in each of the succeeding two years, then ARIAD US may terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon [***] prior written notice to ARIAD SWISSCO. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 26.5 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of ARIAD US in this event.

Furthermore, the termination or expiration this Agreement shall have no effect on a Party’s obligation to make any payment accruing prior to the date of termination or expiration.

 

  26.6.2 Following expiration of the Royalty Term, the grants in Section 2.1 shall become exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, perpetual and irrevocable.

  26.6.4

In the event of termination of this Agreement by ARIAD US under Section 26.1 in relation to a particular country or countries all rights granted to ARIAD SWISSCO in relation to such country or countries shall terminate and ARIAD SWISSCO shall cease any use and/or exploitation of the Registration with respect to the Product in the terminated country or countries and shall promptly and unconditionally transfer such Registration

ARTICLE 28 – LAW TO GOVERN

29.1 Generally. The Parties recognize that disputes as to matters arising under or relating to this Agreement or either Party’s rights and/or obligations hereunder may arise from time to time. It is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of such disputes in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation and without resort to litigation. To accomplish this objective, the Parties agree to follow the procedures set forth in this ARTICLE 29 to resolve any such dispute if and when it arises.

 

29.2 Escalation to Senior Officers. If an unresolved dispute as to matters arising under or relating to this Agreement or either Party’s rights and/or obligations hereunder arises (other than any dispute at the JSC which is subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 4.7, or any other matter that is expressly subject to either Party’s final decision-making authority or final approval as set forth elsewhere herein), either Party may refer such dispute to the Senior Officers or their respective designees, who shall meet in person or by telephone within [***] after such referral to attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute and each Senior Officer may include a relevant subject matter expert relevant to the dispute. If such matter cannot be resolved by discussion of such officers within such [***] period (as may be extended by mutual written agreement), such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 29.3. The Parties acknowledge that these discussions between the Parties to resolve disputes are settlement discussions under applicable rules of evidence and without prejudice to either Party’s legal position.

 

29.3 Jurisdiction. Any unresolved dispute that was the subject of Section 29.2 (and for which a Party does not have final decision making authority) shall be brought exclusively in the federal courts of the United States of America located in New York City, New York (and each party hereby consents to personal jurisdiction and venue in, and agrees to service of process issued or authorized by, such court); provided that either Party may seek injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction with respect to any claim for specific performance or injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement and either Party may seek the enforcement of any award of damages, in any court of competent jurisdiction.
