(b)excise taxes, use taxes, tariffs, sales taxes and customs duties, and/or other government charges imposed on the sale of Licensed Product (including VAT, but only to the extent that such VAT taxes are not reimbursable or refundable), specifically excluding, for clarity, any income taxes assessed against the income arising from such sale;
(c)compulsory or negotiated payments and cash rebates or other expenditures to governmental authorities (or designated beneficiaries thereof) in the context of any national or local health insurance programs or similar programs; including, but not limited to, pay-for-performance agreements, risk sharing agreements as well as government levied fees as a result of the PPACA;
(d)rebates, chargebacks, administrative fees, and discounts (or equivalent thereof) to managed health care organizations, group purchasing organizations, insurers, pharmacy benefit managers (or equivalent thereof), specialty pharmacy providers, governmental authorities, or their agencies or purchasers, reimbursers, or trade customers, as well as amounts owed to patients through co-pay assistance cards or similar forms of rebate to the extent the latter are directly related to the prescribing of the Licensed Product;
(e)outbound freight, shipment and insurance costs to the extent included in the price and separately itemized on the invoice price;
(f)retroactive price reductions, credits or allowances actually granted upon claims, rejections or returns of Licensed Product, including for recalls or damaged or expired  goods, billing errors and reserves for returns;

(g)any invoiced amounts which are not collected by the selling party or its Affiliates, including bad debts; and
(h)any deductions in the context of payments that are due or collected significantly after invoice issuance.

All aforementioned deductions will only be allowable to the extent they are commercially reasonable by Janssen and will be determined, on a country-by-country basis, as incurred in the ordinary course of business in type and amount verifiable based on Janssen’s and Affiliates’ reporting system.  All such discounts, allowances, credits, rebates, and other deductions will be fairly and equitably allocated to Licensed Product and other products of Janssen and its Affiliates and sublicensees such that Licensed Product does not bear a disproportionate portion of such deductions.

Sales of Licensed Product by and between Janssen and its Affiliates and sublicensees, in each case, unless the Affiliate, sublicensee, or Party is the end purchaser, are not sales to Third Parties and will be excluded from Net Sales calculations for all purposes; provided, however, that if such Licensed Product is subsequently resold to a Third-Party end user such resale shall be included in the determination of Net Sales.

Sales of Licensed Product for the use in conducting Clinical Studies of Licensed Product (including Included Medical Affairs Studies) in a country at or below cost, or in a ‘cost-plus a percentage’ scenario where the ‘percentage’ covers Janssen’s tax considerations, and in order to obtain the regulatory approval of the Licensed Product in such country will be excluded from Net Sales calculations for all purposes.

Compassionate use and “named patient sales” will be excluded from Net Sales calculations for all purposes.

Any disposition of the Licensed Product as free samples, donations, or patient assistance will be excluded from Net Sales calculations for all purposes.

If a Licensed Product is a Combination Product, the Parties will negotiate in good faith, at the latest [***] months before the expected launch of such Combination Product, an allocation of Net Sales of such Combination Product to the respective active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) components, as the case may be, based on the fair market value of such components for the purposes of determining a Licensed Product specific or licensed API specific allocated Net Sales. Payments related to such Combination Product under this Agreement, including royalty payments, will be calculated, due and payable based only on such allocated Net Sales.

Without limiting the foregoing and following negotiation, the Parties anticipate that allocated Net Sales will be calculated according to one of the following paradigms, with the calculation approach in clause (i) being more preferable:

(i)Net Sales for the determination of royalties of Combination Products will be calculated by multiplying Net Sales of such Combination Product by the fraction A/(A+B) where A is the average net selling price of the Licensed Product component contained in the Combination Product, if sold separately or subject to reasonable estimation,

11

[***] = CERTAIN IDENTIFIED INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS DOCUMENT BECAUSE IT IS BOTH NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE REGISTRANT IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED, AND HAS BEEN MARKED WITH “[***]” TO INDICATE WHERE OMISSIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.


and B is the sum of the average net selling prices of any other API components included in the Combination Product, if sold separately or, if not sold separately, subject to reasonable estimation.
(ii)Net Sales for the determination of royalties of Combination Products will be calculated by multiplying Net Sales of such Combination Product by the fraction A/C where A is the average net selling price of the Licensed Product component in the Combination Product, if sold separately or, if not sold separately, subject to reasonable estimation, and C is the average net selling Price of the entire Combination Product.

If the Parties do not agree on an allocation of Net Sales of such Combination Product to the respective API components or product components thereof before launch, then the calculation approach described in clause (i) above will be used.  Where the foregoing refers to “subject to reasonable estimation” such estimation shall be made by the selling Party and promptly provided to the other Party.  If the other Party disagrees with such estimation, it shall notify the other Party (“Component Allocation Notice”) and the JFC shall convene to reasonably determine the proper allocation between the applicable components.  If the JFC does not agree on such allocation within [***] days of the Component Allocation Notice, then [***].  For clarity, the selling Party may launch such Combination Product and use its reasonable estimation of the average net selling product of each component while such matter is being discussed and until it is resolved in accordance with this Section or Section 2.5.1.4.

1.64Patents means: (a) all original (priority establishing) patent applications claiming one or more inventions filed anywhere in the world, including provisionals and nonprovisionals; and (b) any patent or patent application that claims, or is entitled to claim, direct or indirect priority to the patent applications described in clause (a), including any continuations, continuations-in-part, divisions, or substitute applications, any patents issued or granted from any such patent applications, and any reissues, reexaminations, renewals or extensions (including by virtue of any supplementary protection certificates) of any such patents, and any confirmation patents or registration patents or patents of addition based on any such patents, and all foreign counterparts or equivalents of any of the foregoing.

1.72Regulatory Exclusivity means any exclusive marketing rights or data protection or other exclusivity rights conferred by any Regulatory Authority with respect to a drug or biological product that prevent (a) such Regulatory Authority from granting any regulatory approval of a Third Party product that has an amino acid sequence that is the same as or substantially identical to the amino acid sequence of such biological product; or (b) a Third Party from making a cross reference to data held by such Regulatory Authority, including orphan drug exclusivity, pediatric exclusivity, rights conferred in the U.S. under Section 351 of the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. §262 (such Act, the “PHSA”), the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act (21 U.S.C. §355), as amended (the “Hatch-Waxman Act”), the PPACA or in the European Union under Directive 2001/83/EC, as amended, and Regulation (EC) No. 1901/2006, as amended, or rights similar thereto in other countries or regulatory jurisdictions.  If a Regulatory Authority confers more than one type of exclusivity with respect to a biological product in a country or jurisdiction (e.g., the FDA grants both biologic drug reference product exclusivity and orphan drug exclusivity with respect to such biological product), Regulatory Exclusivity will be deemed to apply to such biological product in such country or jurisdiction so long as any exclusivity granted to such biological product prevents such Regulatory Authority from granting any regulatory approval of a Third Party product that has an amino acid sequence that is the same as or substantially identical to the amino acid sequence of such biological product or making any cross reference to data held by such Regulatory Authority.

(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the GDP, Janssen will not be obligated to commence or continue a Clinical Study of a Licensed Product if Janssen reasonably determines that such Clinical Study would pose an unacceptable safety or tolerability risk for the study subjects.  Janssen will so notify Xencor of its determination and the Parties will discuss the concerns in good faith to determine whether to terminate, suspend, modify or continue such Clinical Study.
(ii)If Xencor believes in good faith that termination or suspension of a Clinical Study of the Licensed Products is warranted because of safety or tolerability risks to the study subjects, then Xencor will so notify Janssen and the Parties will discuss Xencor’s concerns in good faith to determine whether to terminate, suspend, modify or continue such Clinical Study.
(d)Development Reports.  Section 4.4.2.1 will cease to apply to the Licensed Products after Xencor exercises the Co-Funding Option in accordance with Section 6.2 but shall continue to apply after the Co-Funding Opt-Out Effective Date if Xencor provides Co-Funding Opt-Out Notice.  In advance of each meeting of the JDC, Janssen will provide to the JDC a high-level summary report summarizing (a) its Development activities with respect to the Licensed Products that Janssen and its Affiliates has performed or caused to be performed since the last meeting of the JDC, including an evaluation of the work performed, and the results thereof, in relation to the goals of the GDP, and (b) its anticipated Development activities with respect to the Licensed Products for the subsequent Calendar Quarter.
(e)Day-to-Day Responsibility.  Janssen will be responsible for day-to-day implementation of the Development activities with respect to the Licensed Products and will have the right to make operational and administrative decisions with respect to how to implement such Development activities (e.g., with respect to a Clinical Study, Janssen will have the right to select and engage clinical trial sites), as long as such decisions do not conflict with the GDP or any decision of the JDC with respect to such Development activity.
6.2.3.4Shared Development Costs.
(a)Cost Sharing.  Shared Development Costs incurred on or after the Co-Funding Option Exercise Date by the Parties and their Affiliates will be borne 80% by Janssen and 20% by Xencor, except as provided in Section 6.2.3.4(b).
(b)Medical Affairs Study Costs.   Included Medical Affairs Studies Costs for Licensed Products will be included in Shared Development Costs up to the Included Medical Affairs Studies Costs Limit.  Development FTE Costs and Out-of-Pocket Expenses costs incurred to conduct studies to support reimbursement and other types of medical affairs studies that are not Included Medical Affairs Studies will not be included in Shared Development Costs or shared by Janssen and Xencor and will be borne entirely by Janssen.  Janssen shall bear all Included Medical Affairs Studies Costs in excess of the Included Medical Affairs Studies Costs Limit.
(c)Cost Reports.

(i)Shared Development Costs will initially be borne by the Party incurring the cost or expense, subject to reimbursement as provided in Section 6.2.3.4(d).  Each Party will calculate and maintain records of Shared Development Costs incurred by it and its Affiliates in accordance with procedures to be established by the JFC in coordination with the JDC.
(ii)The procedures for quarterly reporting of actual results, quarterly review and discussion of potential discrepancies, quarterly reconciliation, reasonable cost forecasting, and other finance and accounting matters related to Shared Development Costs will be prepared by Janssen and approved by the JFC (the “Development Reconciliation Procedures”).  When Janssen is preparing the Development Reconciliation Procedures, Janssen will reasonably consider Xencor’s input.
(iii)The Development Reconciliation Procedures will provide that, within [***] after the end of each Calendar Quarter, each Party will submit to the JFC a report, in a format established by the JFC, of all Shared Development Costs incurred by such Party and its Affiliates during such Calendar Quarter (each, a “Cost Report”).  Within [***] following the receipt of each Cost Report, each Party will have the right to request reasonable additional information (as determined by the JFC) related to the other Party’s and its Affiliates’ Shared Development Costs during such Calendar Quarter in order to confirm that such other Party’s spending is in conformance with the approved Development Budget.  
(iv)Janssen will prepare and the JFC will approve reasonable procedures for the Parties to share estimated Shared Development Costs for each Calendar Quarter before the end of such Calendar Quarter, to enable each Party to appropriately accrue its share of Shared Development Costs for financial reporting purposes.  Janssen’s representatives on the JFC will have the primary responsibility for performing the reconciliation in accordance with the Development Reconciliation Procedures.
(d)Reimbursement of Shared Development Costs.
(i)The Party (with its Affiliates) that incurs more than its share of the total actual Shared Development Costs with respect to a Calendar Quarter will be paid by the other Party an amount of cash sufficient to reconcile to its agreed percentage of actual Shared Development Costs in such Calendar Quarter under Section 6.2.3.4(a).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, on a Calendar Year-to-date basis, the Parties will not share any Shared Development Costs in excess of the amounts allocated for such Calendar Year-to-date period in the Development Budget, except as follows:
(1)Shared Development Costs in excess of the Development Budget will be included in the calculation of Shared Development Costs to be shared by the Parties to the extent such excess Shared Development Costs do not exceed [***] of the total Shared Development Costs allocated to be incurred by such Party and its Affiliates in the applicable Calendar Year-to-date period in accordance with the Development Budget for such Calendar Year; and

[***] = CERTAIN IDENTIFIED INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS DOCUMENT BECAUSE IT IS BOTH NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE REGISTRANT IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED, AND HAS BEEN MARKED WITH “[***]” TO INDICATE WHERE OMISSIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.


(2)the Parties will share any and all Shared Development Costs in excess of the Development Budget to the extent attributable to: (A) a change in applicable Law; (B) Force Majeure; (C) a variation in actual patient enrollment from projected patient enrollment; (D) a change to a clinical trial protocol required or requested by any Governmental Authority; (E) increases in the costs of comparator drugs; or (F) increases to Manufacturing Cost of Clinical Supply of a Licensed Product.
(ii) If any excess Shared Development Costs are excluded from sharing by the Parties for a particular Calendar Year-to-date period pursuant to Section 6.2.3.4(d)(i)(1), such excess Shared Development Costs will be carried forward to the subsequent Calendar Quarters (provided that such Calendar Quarters fall within the same Calendar Year) and, to the extent the total Shared Development Costs incurred by such Party and its Affiliates for the Calendar Year-to-date as of the end of such subsequent Calendar Quarter are less than [***] of the aggregate Shared Development Costs allocated to such Party under the Development Budget for such Calendar Year-to-date period, such carried forward amounts will be included in Shared Development Costs to be shared by the Parties for such Calendar Year-to-date-period (i.e., so that the total Shared Development Costs incurred by such Party and its Affiliates that are shared pursuant to this Section during any Calendar Year do not exceed [***] of the Shared Development Costs allocated to such Party under the Development Budget for such Calendar Year, unless otherwise approved by the JDC).  For clarity, at the end of the Calendar Year, any amounts in excess of [***] of the aggregate Shared Development Costs allocated to such Party under the Development Budget for such Calendar Year will be borne solely by such Party and will not be shared by the other Party.
(iii) The Development Reconciliation Procedures will require the JFC to develop a written report setting out the calculation of any net amount owed by Xencor to Janssen or by Janssen to Xencor, as the case may be, as necessary to accomplish the sharing of Shared Development Costs set forth in this Section, and to prepare such report promptly following delivery of the Cost Reports and in a reasonable time (to be defined in the Development Reconciliation Procedures) in advance of payment.
(iv)The net amount payable to accomplish the sharing of Shared Development Costs as provided under this Section will be paid by Janssen or Xencor, as the case may be, [***] after the end of the applicable Calendar Quarter.

(f)For purposes of Section 7.4, after the Co-Funding Opt-Out Effective Date royalties will be calculated and payable on the terms set forth in Section 7.4.1.1.  If the Co-Funding Opt-Out Effective Date is not the last day of a Calendar Year, the royalty calculations will continue to be based on cumulative Net Sales in the Calendar Year in which the Co-Funding Opt-Out Effective Date occurred, but the royalty calculations will be made using the royalty rates in Section 7.4.1.1 beginning in the Calendar Quarter immediately following the Co-Funding Opt-Out Effective Date.
(g)The Shared Development Costs incurred [***] (the “Co-Funding Wind-down Period”) shall continue to be shared by the Parties on the terms set forth in Section 6.2.3, provided, however, that if Janssen amends the GDP to increase the aggregate amount of the Development Budget for such Calendar Quarters, then the incremental amount of the increase approved by Janssen shall be excluded from Shared Development Costs for purposes of Section 6.2.3 during the Co-Funding Wind-down Period.
(h)If Xencor exercised the Co-Detailing Option before giving the Co-Funding Opt-Out Notice, then Xencor will be obligated to continue conducting Detailing activities in accordance with Section 6.3.3 until [***].

(a)Subject to Section 7.4.3.2(b) and Section 7.4.3.2(c), if Janssen (or its Affiliate) [***] licenses under any Patents or Know-How of any Third Party for the manufacture, use or sale of a Licensed Antibody or Licensed Product (other than with respect to any active ingredient that is not a Licensed Antibody) in a country (each, a “Third Party License”), Janssen will have the sole right (but not the obligation) to negotiate and obtain any such license with respect to the applicable Licensed Antibody or Licensed Product.  For clarity, Xencor retains a right to negotiate and obtain licenses under any Patents or Know-How of any Third Party with respect to Antibodies and products of Xencor that are not Licensed Antibodies or Licensed Products.
(i)With respect to such Patents or Know-How [***] for the manufacture, use or sale of a Licensed Antibody or Licensed Product, Janssen will have the right to deduct [***] of the royalties actually paid to such Third Party(ies) under the applicable Third Party License(s) by Janssen (or by such Affiliate or, to the extent offset against royalties paid to Janssen, its sublicensee, as applicable) with respect to sales of the applicable Licensed Product in such country in a Calendar Quarter from the royalty payments payable by Janssen to Xencor with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country in such Calendar Quarter.
(ii)With respect to such Patents or Know-How [***] for the manufacture, use or sale of a Licensed Antibody or Licensed Product (e.g. formulation

technology or for ease of administration), Janssen will have the right to deduct [***] of the royalties actually paid to such Third Party(ies) under the applicable Third Party License(s) by Janssen (or by such Affiliate or, to the extent offset against royalties paid to Janssen, its sublicensee, as applicable) with respect to sales of the applicable Licensed Product in such country in a Calendar Quarter from the royalty payments payable by Janssen to Xencor with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country in such Calendar Quarter.  
(iii)Such deductions will be subject to Section 7.4.3.3 and applied in accordance with Section 7.4.3.4.
(b)If a Party becomes aware that it is necessary to obtain one or more licenses under any Patents or Know-How of any Third Party in order to practice any Xencor Binding Domain for a Licensed Antibody (including for a Licensed Antibody contained in a Licensed Product) in a country, such Party will promptly notify the other Party.  Xencor will have the sole responsibility and right to negotiate and obtain such license, provided that such license does not impose any liability, restriction or obligation on Janssen (beyond the terms and conditions in connection with the practice of such license) without Janssen’s consent.  Such Third Party’s Patents or Know-How, as applicable, will be included in the Xencor Research Patents, Xencor Patents or Xencor Research Know-How, as applicable.  Xencor will be responsible for all payments under such license.
(c)If a Party becomes aware that it is necessary to obtain one or more licenses under any Patents or Know-How of any Third Party in order to practice any Janssen Binding Domain for a Licensed Antibody (including for a Licensed Antibody contained in a Licensed Product) in a country, such Party will promptly notify the other Party.  Janssen will have the sole responsibility and right to negotiate and obtain such license, provided that such license does not impose any liability, restriction or obligation on Xencor (beyond the terms and conditions in connection with the practice of such license) without Xencor’s consent.  Such Third Party’s Patents or Know-How, as applicable, will be included in the Janssen Research Patents or Janssen Research Know-How, as applicable.  Janssen will be responsible for all payments under such license.
7.4.3.3Royalty Floor. In no event will the total reductions and deductions under Sections 7.4.3.1 and 7.4.3.2 reduce the royalties payable to Xencor under Section 7.4.1.1 or 7.4.1.2, as applicable, with respect to a given Licensed Product in a given country in any Calendar Quarter by more than [***] of the amount that would otherwise be payable if such reductions and deductions were not made.
7.4.3.4Royalty Calculation. If the royalties payable with respect to Net Sales of a Licensed Product in a country in a Calendar Quarter are subject to reduction under Section 7.4.3.1 or deductions under Section 7.4.3.2, the royalties payable with respect to such Net Sales will be calculated as follows:
(a)First, determine the aggregate Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country during such Calendar Quarter that occurred during the applicable Royalty Term (the “Quarterly Net Sales”).

[***] = CERTAIN IDENTIFIED INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS DOCUMENT BECAUSE IT IS BOTH NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE REGISTRANT IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED, AND HAS BEEN MARKED WITH “[***]” TO INDICATE WHERE OMISSIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.


(b)Second, determine the Effective Royalty Rate for the applicable Calendar Quarter.  The “Effective Royalty Rate” means, with respect to a particular Calendar Quarter, the amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to A ÷ B (i.e., A divided by B), where:
(i)A = Aggregate amount of royalties payable under Section 7.4.1.1 or 7.4.1.2, as applicable, applying the relevant royalty tiers, on aggregate annual Net Sales of Licensed Products in the Territory during such Calendar Quarter before applying any reductions under Section 7.4.3.1 or deductions under Section 7.4.3.2; and
(ii)B = Aggregate annual Net Sales of Licensed Products in the Territory during such Calendar Quarter (excluding any Net Sales of such Licensed Products that occurred after the expiration of the applicable Royalty Term).
(c)Third, multiply the Effective Royalty Rate by the Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country in such Calendar Quarter that occurred during the applicable Royalty Term to determine the royalties that would have been payable on the Quarterly Net Sales under Section 7.4.1.1 or 7.4.1.2, as applicable, if no reduction or deduction applied under Section 7.4.3.1 or 7.4.3.2 (the “Unadjusted Quarterly Royalties” for such country).
(d)Last, reduce the Unadjusted Quarterly Royalties for such country to the amount specified in Section 7.4.3.1 and by the amount(s) specified in Section 7.4.3.2, as applicable, in each case, to the extent allowable by Section 7.4.3.3.
7.4.4Expiration of Royalty Term. Upon the expiration of the Royalty Term with respect to a Licensed Product in a country, Xencor hereby grants to Janssen a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, fully-paid and royalty-free right and license, with the right to grant sublicenses, under the Xencor Intellectual Property to Exploit such Licensed Product in the Field in such country. For clarity, after the Royalty Term expires with respect to a Licensed Product in a country, the calculation of annual aggregate Net Sales of such Licensed Product in the Territory will exclude sales of such Licensed Product in such country.
7.4.5Royalty Reports and Payments. Commencing with the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product by Janssen or its Affiliates or sublicensees in the Territory, royalty payments are due and payable [***] after the end of each Calendar Quarter in which royalties are applicable.  Each payment of royalties under this Agreement will be accompanied with a report setting forth, by region (which regions will be the U.S., Canada, Japan, China, each of the Major European Countries and all other countries in the Territory), the Net Sales, the applicable royalty rate and the amount of royalty payment due on such Net Sales.  Additionally, Janssen will provide Xencor with a non-binding estimate of each royalty payment for each Calendar Quarter within [***] after the end of such Calendar Quarter. All reports delivered by Janssen under this Section will be Confidential Information of Janssen.  
7.4.6Royalty Conditions. All royalties due to Xencor under this Section 7.4 are subject to the following conditions: (a) only one royalty will be due with respect to the same unit of Licensed Product; and (b) no royalties will be due upon the sale or other transfer among Janssen or its Affiliates, but in such cases the royalty will be due and calculated upon Janssen’s or its

Affiliate’s Net Sales to the first independent Third Party, and distributors of Janssen selling Licensed Product that are not otherwise sublicensees will not, for this purpose, be deemed to be sublicensees of Janssen and will instead be considered as independent Third Parties.

7.5Payment Terms.  
7.5.1Payment Instruction. All payments to be made by a Party hereunder will be made in Dollars by electronic funds transfer to the bank account as will be designated by the Party receiving the payment.
7.5.2Exchange Rate.  If any amounts that are relevant to the determination of amounts to be paid under this Agreement or any calculations to be performed under this Agreement are received or paid or initially reported in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, then such amounts will be converted to their U.S. Dollar equivalent as follows:  
7.5.2.1Janssen will notify Xencor in writing of Johnson & Johnson’s Currency Hedge Rate for a given Calendar Year in advance of such Calendar Year, within [***] after the Currency Hedge Rate(s) are available from the GTSC or its Affiliates, which is customarily at the end of November of the preceding Calendar Year.
7.5.2.2Then: (i) the Currency Hedge Rate(s) as provided in the notice to Xencor will remain constant throughout the applicable Calendar Year; and (ii) Janssen will use such Currency Hedge Rate(s) to convert non-U.S. Dollar amounts to U.S. Dollars for the purpose of calculating Net Sales, royalties and the achievement of Sales Milestone Events or Co-Funding Sales Milestone Events, as applicable, for each Calendar Quarter in the applicable Calendar Year.
7.6Records; Audits.
7.6.1Records. Each Party will keep, and cause its Affiliates and sublicensees to keep, complete and accurate records of the items underlying Shared Development Costs, Net Sales and any other elements required to prepare the reports or calculate payments required by under this Agreement. Such records must be retained for a period of [***] following the relevant reporting period.
7.6.2Audits.  
7.6.2.1Each Party will have the right at its own expense to have an independent, certified public accountant of nationally recognized standing, selected by such Party and reasonably acceptable to the other Party, review any records of the other Party and its Affiliates that are required to be kept pursuant to Section 7.6.1 in the location(s) where such records are maintained by the other Party or its Affiliates upon prior written notice and during normal business hours and under obligations of confidence, for the sole purpose of verifying the basis and accuracy of payments made under this Agreement, within the prior [***] period.  Audits may not be conducted by a Party under this Section more than once every [***], and an audit of the records relating to a particular Calendar Year may be conducted not more than once.

7.6.2.2The report of the independent certified public accountant will be shared with the audited Party before distribution to the auditing Party so that the audited Party can provide the independent public accountant with justifying remarks for inclusion in the report before sharing the conclusions of such independent public audit with the auditing Party.  The final audit report will be shared with the auditing and audited Party at the same time and will specify whether the amounts paid to the auditing Party during the audited period were correct or, if incorrect, the amount of any underpayment or overpayment.  The audit report will only contain the information relevant to support the statement as to whether the amounts due under this Agreement were calculated and paid accurately and will not include any other confidential information (or other additional information that is ordinarily not included in the reports to the auditing Party) disclosed to the auditor during the course of the audit.
7.6.2.3If the review of such records reveals that the audited Party has failed to accurately report information pursuant to the relevant provisions of this Agreement or make any payment (or portion thereof) required under this Agreement, then the audited Party will pay, within [***] days after receipt of the final audit report by the audited Party, to the auditing Party any underpaid amounts due under this Agreement.  If any such discrepancies resulted in an underpayment of amounts due under this Agreement greater than [***] of the amounts actually due for the applicable audit period, the audited Party will pay all reasonable costs incurred in conducting such review.  If the audited Party disagrees with the findings of the audit report, the Parties will first seek to resolve the matter between themselves, and in the event they fail to reach agreement, the dispute resolution provisions set forth in ARTICLE 15 will apply.
7.7Taxes.  
7.7.1Withholding.
7.7.1.1Janssen will make all payments to Xencor under this Agreement without deduction or withholding for Taxes except to the extent that any such deduction or withholding is required by law in effect at the time of payment.
7.7.1.2Any Tax required to be withheld on amounts payable under this Agreement will be paid by Janssen on behalf of Xencor to the appropriate Governmental Authority, and Janssen will furnish Xencor with proof of payment of such Tax. Any such Tax required to be withheld will be an expense of and borne by Xencor. If any such Tax is assessed against and paid by Janssen, then Xencor will indemnify and hold harmless Janssen from and against such Tax.
7.7.1.3Janssen and Xencor will cooperate with respect to all documentation required by any taxing authority or reasonably requested by Janssen to secure a reduction in the rate of applicable withholding Taxes.  On the date of execution of this Agreement, Xencor will deliver to Janssen an accurate and complete Internal Revenue Service Form W-9.

7.7.2Indirect Taxes. Amounts payable under this Agreement do not include any sales, use, excise, value added or other applicable taxes, tariffs or duties. If any taxing authority imposes a VAT, GST, sales, use, service, consumption, business or similar Tax with respect to the work undertaken under this Agreement, then Janssen agrees to pay that amount if specified in a valid invoice or supply exemption documentation. For avoidance of doubt, Xencor will not be entitled to pass on to Janssen, and Janssen will not be obligated to pay or bear, any Tax that is based on Xencor’s real, personal or intangible property (whether owned or leased), corporate structure, franchise, continuing business operations, income, gross receipts, capital stock, net worth or imposed with respect to Xencor’s engagement of employees or independent contractors or that Xencor incurs upon subcontracting any work hereunder, in whole or in part, to any affiliated or non-affiliated third party. Xencor is solely responsible, to the extent required by applicable law, for identifying, billing, and collecting the Taxes payable by Janssen in all relevant federal, state, county, municipal and other taxing jurisdictions and for filing all required tax returns in a timely manner. To the extent that Xencor does not provide Janssen a valid invoice (i.e., an invoice compliant with this Agreement and the rules and regulations of the jurisdiction of both Xencor and Janssen, including separate identification of the Tax where legally required), Xencor shall be responsible for any penalty resulting directly from such noncompliance. The Parties will cooperate in good faith to minimize Taxes to the extent legally permissible.

Invention that is conceived or first reduced to practice during the Research Program Term; and (b) any Invention that is conceived or first reduced to practice during the Term that would be the subject of a [***].  Each Party will cause its Affiliates, employees, directors and officers to assign to such Party, such Person’s right, title and interest in and to any such Inventions, and intellectual property rights therein, as is necessary to enable such Party to fully effect the ownership of such Inventions, and intellectual property rights therein, as provided for in Section 9.2.2.  Each Party will include provisions that effect the intent of this ARTICLE 9 in its relevant agreements with Third Party sublicensees and Third Party contractors performing obligations on its behalf pursuant to this Agreement.  Each Party will, and will cause its Affiliates, employees, directors, and officers, Third Party contractors and Third Party sublicensees, in each case to cooperate with the other Party and take all reasonable additional actions and execute such agreements, instruments and documents as may be reasonably required to perfect the other Party’s right, title and interest in and to Inventions, and intellectual property rights therein, as set forth in this Section 9.2.  Regardless of the foregoing and any provision of this Section 9.2, a Party engaging a CRO (or clinical trial site) for the conduct of Clinical Studies or a CMO may agree to such terms as to the ownership of intellectual property, including Patents, as is reasonable under the circumstances and/or customary.

9.3Prosecution of Patents.  
9.3.1Xencor Patents.  
9.3.1.1The Parties recognize that it is their shared goal to obtain the broadest patent coverage available with regard to the Xencor Patents and Xencor Research Patents, consistent with the goal of obtaining patents that are valid and enforceable as against Third Parties.  Janssen acknowledges that there may be multiple licensees of certain Xencor Patents or Xencor Research Patents which are included in Xencor Platform Technology and that Xencor has the right to determine how best to conduct patent prosecution of such Xencor Patents or Xencor Research Patents, as applicable, considering in good faith the interests of all such licensees to the extent obligated to do so.
9.3.1.2Xencor has the right using patent counsel selected by Xencor to prepare, file, prosecute (including any interferences, oppositions, reissue proceedings, reexaminations and similar proceedings) and maintain (collectively, “Prosecution” or to “Prosecute”) [***]  Xencor will take such reasonable acts in connection therewith as Xencor deems appropriate, provided Xencor considers in good faith any comments of Janssen and is acting in good faith to obtain and maintain [***] effective for market exclusivity of Licensed Products.  As of the Effective Date, Xencor uses certain external patent counsel to Prosecute [***].  In the event that such external patent counsel are effectively replaced by Xencor, the replacement patent counsel must be reasonably acceptable to Janssen.  
9.3.1.3Section 9.3.1.2 notwithstanding, with respect to [***], Xencor will promptly provide Janssen with copies of all correspondence to or from the USPTO, EPO and equivalent patent offices in foreign jurisdictions, relating to such [***].  Xencor will reasonably cooperate with Janssen in Prosecuting the [***], and in such case, in the event of any disagreement between Xencor and Janssen regarding the Prosecution of [***] under this Section:

(a) after the earliest Candidate Selection Date, Janssen will have final decision-making authority and Xencor will (and will cause its outside counsel to) Prosecute [***] as instructed by Janssen, including in countries requested by Janssen to the extent permitted by applicable Law; and (b) prior to [***], Xencor will have final decision-making authority.  
9.3.1.4If Xencor, prior or subsequent to filing any Patent that would constitute [***], elects not to Prosecute such Patent, Xencor will give Janssen notice thereof within a reasonable period prior to allowing such Patent to lapse or become abandoned or unenforceable, and Janssen will thereafter have the right, but not the obligation, to Prosecute such [***].  If Janssen assumes responsibility for such [***] pursuant to this Section, Xencor will reasonably cooperate with Janssen in Prosecuting such Patents and, in such case, in the event of any disagreement between Xencor and Janssen regarding the Prosecution of [***] under this Section, Janssen will have final decision-making authority and Xencor will (and will cause its outside counsel to) Prosecute [***] as instructed by Janssen, including in countries requested by Janssen to the extent permitted by applicable Law.
9.3.1.5As between the Parties, Xencor will be solely responsible for all costs and expenses Xencor incurs in connection with the Prosecution of [***].  Janssen will reimburse Xencor for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by Xencor in connection with the Prosecution of the [***]; provided, however, that at any time Janssen may elect not to be responsible for such costs, in which case such applicable [***] will no longer be included in any licenses granted to Janssen hereunder.
9.3.1.6The Parties understand that certain grounds for rejection in the United States may be cured or remedied by assignment of a Patent from one Party to another to allow for the filing of terminal disclaimers.  In the case of [***] Controlled by Janssen for which such assignment can provide such remedy, the Parties agree to discuss in good faith the best course of action, including the assignment of [***] Controlled by Janssen to vest ownership in one or both Parties to remedy such rejection.  If, after discussion, the Parties do not agree on the course of action to take, either Party may refer the matter to the Executive Officers for resolution.  Such Executive Officers shall endeavor to meet promptly to discuss the matter.  If the Executive Officers do not reach consensus on such matter within [***] after such matter is referred to them, then (i) in the case of assignment of a [***], Xencor will have final say, and (ii) in the case of assignment of a [***] Controlled by Janssen, Janssen will have the final say.
9.3.1.7It is the intention of the Parties that this Agreement is a “joint research agreement” as that phrase is defined in Public Law 108-53 (the “Create Act”). If Janssen or Xencor intends to overcome a rejection of a claimed invention in a [***] Controlled by Janssen pursuant to the provisions of the Create Act under this Agreement, such Party shall first obtain the prior written consent of the other Party. Following receipt of such written consent, Xencor and Janssen shall limit any amendment to the specification or statement to the patent office with respect to this Agreement to that which is strictly required by 35 USC § 102(c) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and which is consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

9.3.3Joint Patents.
9.3.3.1[***]
9.3.3.2[***]  
9.3.3.3Joint Patent Costs. [***]
9.3.4Cooperation. Each Party agrees to reasonably cooperate with the other with respect to the Prosecution of Patents pursuant to this Section 9.3.  At the request of the other Party, the Party responsible for Prosecuting a Patent will make reasonable efforts to separately prosecute subject matter solely related to [***] separate from other subject matter which may be disclosed or claimed in any Patent hereunder, to the extent it may reasonably do so without jeopardizing or impairing any such Patents.  Each Party’s rights to Prosecute a Patent pursuant to this Section 9.3 will be subject to the applicable provisions of any agreements between the Party controlling such Patents and its licensor.  All information exchanged between the Parties under this Section 9.3 pertaining to any [***] will be deemed Confidential Information of Xencor, all information exchanged between the Parties under this Section 9.3 pertaining to any Janssen Patent will be deemed Confidential Information of Janssen, and all information exchanged between the Parties under this Section 9.3 pertaining to any Joint Patents will be deemed Confidential Information of both Parties.
9.4Patent Enforcement.  
9.4.1Notice. In the event that Xencor or Janssen becomes aware of any actual infringement or threat of infringement of any Xencor Patent, Xencor Research Patent, Janssen Patent or Joint Patent by means of the sale, including the manufacture for sale, by a Third Party of a Third Party Competitive Product or a biosimilar product with respect to any Licensed Antibody or any Licensed Product, or if any Xencor Patent, Xencor Research Patent, Janssen Patent or Joint Patent is challenged in any action or proceeding (other than any oppositions, cancellations, interferences, reissue proceedings or reexaminations, which are addressed above) as invalid or unenforceable (such infringements and challenges collectively, “Product Infringement” with respect to such Licensed Antibody or Licensed Product), such Party will notify the other Party promptly, and following such notification, the Parties will confer.  As used in this Section, a “Third Party Competitive Product” means any Antibody containing a CD28 Binding Domain and a Target Prostate Antigen Binding Domain.
9.4.2Enforcement of [***].
9.4.2.1After earliest Candidate Selection, Janssen will have the first right to institute infringement suits or take other action under the [***], in each case to the extent the same is directed to a Product Infringement, including defense of a declaratory judgment action with respect to a potential Product Infringement (whether prior to or after the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product) (each, an “Infringement Action”).  Janssen will have the right to institute such suit or other appropriate action in the name of Xencor or of Janssen, or in the

names of both of them.  For clarity, Janssen will have the right to institute infringement suits or take other action under Patents owned or controlled by Janssen (not Joint Patents), provided that Janssen will keep Xencor reasonably updated on the progress of any such suits or actions.
9.4.2.2If Janssen institutes or undertakes an Infringement Action in accordance with Section 9.4.2.1, Xencor will cooperate fully with Janssen in its efforts to protect such Patents and will agree to be a party in any suit, if required, in each case with respect to such Infringement Action, in each case at Janssen’s sole expense.  Xencor will have the right, in Xencor’s sole discretion and at Xencor’s expense, to join or otherwise participate in such Infringement Action with legal counsel selected by Xencor.  Janssen will notify and keep Xencor apprised in writing of such Infringement Action and will consider and take into account Xencor’s reasonable interests and requests regarding such Infringement Action.
9.4.2.3If Janssen does not institute or undertake an Infringement Action in accordance with Section 9.4.2.1 for a period [***] after being requested by Xencor to do so, or (if sooner) at least [***] prior to the last date such Infringement Action may be brought, Xencor may institute or undertake and thereafter control such Infringement Action.  In such event, Xencor will have the right, but not the obligation, to institute or undertake such suit or other appropriate Infringement Action in the name of Xencor or of Janssen or in the names of both of them.  Janssen will cooperate fully with Xencor in its efforts to protect such Patents and will agree to be a party in any suit, if required, in each case with respect to such Infringement Action, in each case at Xencor’s sole expense.  Janssen will have the right, in Janssen’s sole discretion and at Janssen’s expense, to join or otherwise participate in such Infringement Action with legal counsel selected by Janssen.  Xencor will notify and keep Janssen apprised in writing of such Infringement Action and will consider and take into account Janssen’s reasonable interests and requests regarding such Infringement Action.
9.4.3Enforcement of Joint Patents other than [***].
9.4.3.1Xencor will have the first right to institute infringement suits or take other actions directed to a Product Infringement of [***], including defense of a declaratory judgment action with respect to a potential Product Infringement.  Xencor will have the right to institute such suit or other appropriate action in the name of Xencor or of Janssen, or in the names of both of them.  Janssen will cooperate fully with Xencor in its efforts to protect such Patents and will agree to be a party in any suit, if required, at Xencor’s sole expense.  Xencor will notify and keep Janssen apprised in writing of such action and will consider and take into account Janssen’s reasonable interests and requests regarding such action.  
9.4.3.2If Xencor does not institute or undertake an action in accordance with Section 9.4.3.1 for a period of [***] after being requested by Janssen to do so, or (if sooner) at least [***] prior to the last date such action may be brought, then Janssen may institute or undertake and thereafter control such action, in the name of Xencor or of Janssen or in the names of both of them.  Janssen will cooperate fully with Xencor in its efforts to protect such Patents and will agree to be a party in any suit, if required, at Janssen’s sole expense.

9.4.4Conduct of Patent Litigation under the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act. If either Party receives a copy of an application submitted to the FDA under subsection (k) of Section 351 of the PHSA or equivalent in any other jurisdiction pertaining to and naming a Licensed Product as a reference product (a “Biosimilar Application”) or otherwise becomes aware that such a Biosimilar Application has been filed (such as in an instance described in Section 351(l)(9)(C) of the PHSA), such Party will, within [***] Business Days, notify the other Party so that the other Party may seek permission to view the application and related confidential information from the filer of the Biosimilar Application under Section 351(l)(1)(B)(iii) of the PHSA or equivalent in any other jurisdiction.  If either Party receives any equivalent or similar certification or notice in any other jurisdiction, such Party will, within [***], notify and provide the other Party with copies of such communication.  Regardless of the Party that is the “reference product sponsor” for purposes of such Biosimilar Application, Janssen will have the sole right, but not the obligation, to initiate an Infringement Action against the filer of the Biosimilar Application to enforce any [***], including whether or not to utilize, in whole or in part, the procedures provided in Section 351 of the PHSA or equivalent in any other jurisdiction.  If Janssen institutes any such Infringement Action, then Xencor will join as a party to such claim, suit or proceeding requiring it as a party at Xencor’s sole cost and expense.  With respect to a [***] and to the extent the action is under this Section, Xencor will determine whether any infringement suit or other action will be initiated, and if so, which Party will have the right to initiate and undertake such action and other matters pertaining to such action.
9.4.5Cooperation. In any Infringement Action brought under this Section 9.4 in any jurisdiction, each Party will reasonably cooperate with each other, in good faith, relative to the other Party’s efforts to protect the applicable Patents and will agree to be a party to such Infringement Action, if necessary.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.4, neither Party will settle or compromise any related defense or infringement suit brought under the [***] pursuant to this Section 9.4 without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.  Furthermore, each Party will provide the other Party with reasonable prior notice and opportunity to review and comment, and will consider in good faith all reasonable comments from the other Party on, any proposed arguments asserted or to be asserted in any enforcement action under this Section 9.4.
9.4.6Recoveries. With respect to any Infringement Action or other action against a Product Infringement initiated pursuant to this Section 9.4, any recovery obtained as a result of any such proceeding, by settlement or otherwise, will be applied in the following order of priority:
(a)first, the Parties will be reimbursed for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with such Infringement Action or other action and not otherwise recovered (which reimbursement will be made proportionally if such recovery is less than the total of such out-of-pocket expenses); and
(b)any remainder will be (i) [***] if recovered by Janssen and (ii) if recovered by Xencor, allocated [***].

9.4.7Upstream Limitations. Each Party’s rights to enforce or defend a Xencor Patent, Xencor Research Patent, or Joint Patent against a Product Infringement pursuant to this Section 9.4 will be subject to the applicable provisions of any agreements between the Party controlling such Patents and its licensor.
9.4.8Other Enforcement of Xencor Patents, Janssen Patents and Joint Patents. As between the Parties, Xencor will have the sole right, in its sole discretion, to enforce any [***] against any infringement that is not a Product Infringement and to retain all related recoveries, and Janssen will have the sole right, in its sole discretion, to enforce any Janssen Patent against any infringement that is not a Product Infringement and to retain all related recoveries.  If there is any infringement of any Joint Patent that is not a [***], then each Party will have the right to enforce such Joint Patent at its sole expense.
9.5Patent Term Extensions. Janssen will have the sole discretion, after consultation with Xencor, to determine which [***], if any, are extended with respect to any Licensed Product pursuant to the U.S. Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984, the Supplementary Certificate of Protection of Member States of the EU and other similar measures in other jurisdictions worldwide.  Upon Janssen’s request, the Parties will discuss whether any [***] will be extended with respect to any Licensed Product, which extension may be made only with Xencor’s written consent.  Xencor and Janssen will each cooperate and use reasonable efforts to gain any such patent term extension permitted under this Section 9.5.  All filings for such extensions will be made by the Party responsible for the Prosecution of such Patents.  
9.6Regulatory Data Protection. To the extent required by or permitted by Law, Xencor and Janssen will each cooperate with one another and will use Diligent Efforts to promptly, accurately and completely list, with the applicable Regulatory Authorities during the Term, all applicable Licensed Products that Janssen intends to, or has begun to, Commercialize and that, in case of the United States, have become the subject of an application for a Marketing Approval submitted to FDA, such listings to include all so called “Purple Book” listings of biologic products by both the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) and Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) required under section 351(a) of the PHSA and any foreign equivalent, and will cooperate and use Diligent Efforts to secure all applicable exclusivity protection available as a Biologic Reference Product under the Purple Book.
9.7Patent Invalidity Claims.  
9.7.1Right to Respond. If during the Term a Third Party initiates a patent opposition, reexamination, or other proceeding in the US Patent Office, European Patent Office or foreign equivalent, asserting that [***] are invalid or otherwise unenforceable (an “Invalidity Claim”), the Parties will treat this as a Prosecution in accordance with Section 9.3.1 or Section 9.3.3.  For the avoidance of doubt, any response to a Third Party declaratory judgment action with respect to [***] claims or a counterclaim of invalidity or unenforceability of such claims made in the context of an Infringement Action, to the extent the same pertains to a potential Product Infringement, will be deemed an Infringement Action and will be governed by Section 9.4.

9.7.2Invalidity Claims. The non-controlling Party will cooperate with the controlling Party in the preparation and formulation of a response to an Invalidity Claim, and in taking other steps reasonably necessary to respond, to such Invalidity Claim. The controlling Party will have the sole and exclusive right to select counsel for the response to such Invalidity Claim. The non-controlling Party will also have the right to participate and be represented relative to such proceeding by its own counsel at its own expense. The controlling Party will not settle or compromise any Invalidity Claim in a manner that admits the invalidity or unenforceability of any [***], or that requires a payment to the Third Party in respect of such Invalidity Claim, without the consent of the other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.  For clarity, “control” under this Section will mean final decision-making authority regarding Prosecution.  
9.8Claimed Infringement.  Each of the Parties will promptly notify the other in the event that any Third Party files any suit or brings any other action alleging patent infringement by Janssen or Xencor with respect to the Exploitation of any Licensed Antibody or a Licensed Product (any such suit or other action referred to herein as an “Infringement Claim”).  In the event of any Infringement Claim, the Parties will promptly, and within [***] of written notice from either Party to the other thereof, discuss which Party will control the response to such Infringement Claim, and if the Parties do not mutually agree upon which Party will control, then Janssen will have the right to control the defense of such Infringement Claim.  Upon the request of the Party controlling the response to the Infringement Claim, the other Party will reasonably cooperate with the controlling Party at the controlling Party’s expense in the reasonable defense of such Infringement Claim.  The other Party will have the right to consult with the controlling Party concerning any Infringement Claim and to participate in and be represented by independent counsel in any associated litigation at its own expense.  The damages or recovery obtained by the Third Party asserting such Infringement Claim will be paid by Janssen.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no settlement will be entered into, or accepted, without the prior written consent of the other Party if such settlement would materially adversely affect the rights and benefits of, or impose or adversely affect any obligations on, such other Party, which consent will not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned, and (ii) the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Section 9.8 will be subject to ARTICLE 12, if applicable.
9.9Acquirer Intellectual Property.  
9.9.1If Xencor undergoes a Change of Control, all Xencor Research Intellectual Property and Xencor Intellectual Property Controlled by Xencor immediately before the consummation of the Change of Control shall continue to be Xencor Research Intellectual Property or Xencor Intellectual Property, as applicable, for purposes of this Agreement.  “Acquirer Intellectual Property” means any Patents or Know-How Controlled by the Acquirer (or any other Affiliate of Xencor that becomes an Affiliate through any Change of Control of Xencor) that were Controlled by the Acquirer or such other Affiliate (and not Xencor) immediately prior to such Change of Control (other than as a result of a license or other grant of rights, covenant or assignment by Xencor or its other Affiliates to, or for the benefit of, the Acquirer or such Affiliate).  For purposes of this Section 9.9.1, references in the definition of “Control” to “a Party” will be deemed to include the Acquirer and its Affiliates.

9.9.2Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Xencor Research Intellectual Property and Xencor Intellectual Property shall not be deemed to include (and Xencor and its Affiliates shall not be deemed to Control) any Acquirer Intellectual Property unless and solely to the extent such Acquirer Intellectual Property is used by Xencor or the Acquirer, or any of their respective Affiliates, to Research any Primary Antibody.  Xencor will notify Janssen in advance before using any Acquirer Intellectual Property to Exploit any Licensed Antibody or Licensed Product under this Agreement.
9.10Trademarks.  Janssen shall have the sole and exclusive right to, in its sole discretion, develop and select (and conduct clearance searches for) the trademark(s) used to brand the Licensed Products in the Territory, which may vary by country or within a country (the “Product Marks”).  For clarity, Product Marks do not include any corporate names and logos of Janssen.  As between the Parties, Janssen shall own all rights in the Product Marks and shall register and maintain, in its sole discretion and at its own cost and expense, the Product Marks in the countries and regions in the Territory that it determines to be appropriate.  Janssen shall have the sole right, in its discretion and at its expense, to defend and enforce the Product Marks.
ARTICLE 10

10.1Non-Disclosure and Non-Use.
10.1.1During the Term and [***], the Party (the “Receiving Party”) receiving or otherwise in possession of Confidential Information of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) will: (a) maintain in confidence such Confidential Information using not less than the efforts such Receiving Party uses to maintain in confidence its own confidential or proprietary information of similar kind and value (but no less than reasonable efforts); (b) not disclose such Confidential Information to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, except for disclosures expressly permitted in Sections 10.3 and 10.4; and (c) not use such Confidential Information for any purpose except those permitted by this Agreement or internal management and operations directly related to this Agreement (it being understood that this ARTICLE 10 does not create or imply any rights or licenses not expressly granted under this Agreement).

(“Research Program Results”) is deemed to be the Confidential Information of both Parties during the Term.  After the Term, (a) all Research Program Results generated by Xencor shall be deemed the Confidential Information of Xencor (and not Janssen), and (b) all Research Program Results generated by Janssen shall be deemed the Confidential Information of Janssen (and not Xencor), subject to the license granted to Xencor by Janssen under Section 13.6.2.2.
10.2Exceptions. The obligations in Section 10.1 will not apply to the extent of any portion of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party can show by competent written evidence:
(a)is publicly disclosed by the Disclosing Party, either before or after it is disclosed to the Receiving Party under this Agreement;
(b)was known to the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates, without any obligation to the Disclosing Party to keep it confidential or any restriction on its use, before disclosure to the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates by the Disclosing Party;
(c)is subsequently disclosed to the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates on a non-confidential basis by a Third Party that, to the Receiving Party’s knowledge after due inquiry, is not bound by a duty of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party or restriction on its use;
(d)is now, or hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act on the part of the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates in violation of this Agreement, generally known or available, either before or after it is disclosed to the Receiving Party by the Disclosing Party; or

If and whenever any Confidential Information is disclosed in accordance with this Section 10.3, such disclosure will not cause such information to cease to be Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement, except to the extent that such disclosure results in a public disclosure of such information (other than by breach of this Agreement).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Party intends to make a disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to Section 10.3(c) or Section 10.3(d), it will, except where impracticable or not legally permitted, give [***] advance notice (or, if [***] notice is not possible under the circumstances, reasonable advance notice) to the other Party of such disclosure and use not less than the same efforts to secure confidential treatment of such information as it would to protect its own confidential information from disclosure (but no less than reasonable efforts).

10.4Terms of Agreement. This Agreement and all of the terms of this Agreement will be treated as Confidential Information of each Party. In addition to the disclosures permitted under Section 10.3, either Party may disclose the terms of this Agreement and other information relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to the extent required, in the reasonable opinion of such Party’s counsel, to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or the Nasdaq Stock Market or similar security regulatory authorities or stock market in other countries, including as a result of any actions taken by a Party not in violation of this Agreement.  If a Party intends to disclose this Agreement or any of its terms or other such information in accordance with this Section 10.4, such Party will, except where impracticable or not legally permitted, give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure and seek confidential treatment of portions of this Agreement or such terms or information, as may be reasonably requested by the other Party in a timely manner.

Cure Period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) the Cure Period in connection with a material breach of a payment obligation under ARTICLE 7 will be [***]; and (b) if the alleged material breach (other than a payment breach), by its nature, is curable, but is not reasonably curable within the Cure Period, then such Cure Period will be extended if the Breaching Party provides a written plan for curing such breach to the Non-breaching Party and uses Diligent Efforts to cure such breach in accordance with such written plan, provided that no such extension will exceed [***] without the consent of the Non-breaching Party.

13.2.2Disputes. If the Breaching Party disputes in good faith the existence or materiality of a breach specified in a notice provided by the other Party in accordance with Section 13.2.1, and the Breaching Party provides the other Party notice of such dispute within the Cure Period, then the Non-breaching Party will not have the right to terminate this Agreement under Section 13.2.1 with respect to such alleged breach unless and until (a) the dispute resolution process in ARTICLE 15 has finally determined that the Breaching Party has materially breached this Agreement and (b) the Breaching Party fails to cure such material breach within [***] (or [***] in the case of the breach of a payment obligation) following such final determination.  It is understood and agreed that, during the pendency of such dispute, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement will remain in effect and the Parties will continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder.
13.3Termination by Janssen Without Cause.  Janssen may, upon [***] prior written notice to Xencor, terminate this Agreement in its entirety without cause.
13.4Termination if No Candidate Selection. Xencor may terminate this Agreement, upon [***] prior written notice to Janssen, if Janssen does not notify Xencor of its election to make Candidate Selection within the [***] period described in Section 3.7.2.
13.5Provisions for Insolvency.  
13.5.1Right to Terminate for Insolvency. Either Party may terminate this Agreement if, at any time, the other Party files in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any state or country, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of the Party or of substantially all of its assets, or if the other Party is served with an involuntary petition against it, filed in any insolvency proceeding, and such other Party consents to the involuntary bankruptcy or such petition is not dismissed within [***] after the filing thereof, or if the other Party will propose or be a party to any dissolution or liquidation, or if the other Party will make an assignment of substantially all of its assets for the benefit of creditors (each, an “Insolvency Event”).
13.5.2Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. All rights and licenses now or hereafter granted by Xencor to Janssen under or pursuant to this Agreement, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the licenses granted to Janssen pursuant to Section 8.1, are, for all purposes of Section 365(n) of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (such Title 11, the “Bankruptcy Code”), licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code.  Upon the occurrence of any Insolvency Event with respect to Xencor, Xencor agrees that Janssen, as licensee of such rights under this Agreement, will retain and may fully exercise all of

its rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Xencor and Janssen intend and agree that any sale of Xencor’s assets under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code will be subject to Janssen’s rights under Section 365(n), that Janssen cannot be compelled to accept a money satisfaction of its interests in the intellectual property licensed pursuant to this Agreement, and that any such sale therefore may not be made to a purchaser “free and clear” of Janssen’s rights under this Agreement and Section 365(n) without the express, contemporaneous consent of Janssen.  Further, each Party agrees and acknowledges that all payments by Janssen to Xencor hereunder, other than Sales Milestone Payments or Co-Funding Sales Milestone Payments, as applicable, under Section 7.3 and royalty payments under Section 7.4, do not constitute royalties within the meaning of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code or relate to licenses of intellectual property hereunder.  Xencor will, during the Term, create and maintain current copies or, if not amenable to copying, detailed descriptions or other appropriate embodiments, to the extent feasible, of all such intellectual property.  Xencor and Janssen acknowledge and agree that “embodiments” of intellectual property within the meaning of Section 365(n) include laboratory notebooks, cell lines, product samples and inventory, research studies and data, regulatory filings and marketing approvals.  If (i) a case under the Bankruptcy Code is commenced by or against Xencor, (ii) this Agreement is rejected as provided in the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) Janssen elects to retain its rights hereunder as provided in Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, Xencor (in any capacity, including debtor-in-possession) and its successors and assigns (including a trustee) will:

13.5.2.1provide to Janssen all such intellectual property (including copies of embodiments of such intellectual property) held by Xencor and such successors and assigns, or otherwise available to them, immediately upon Janssen’s written request; and
13.5.2.2not interfere with Janssen’s rights under this Agreement, or any agreement supplemental hereto, to such intellectual property (including such embodiments), including any right to obtain such intellectual property (or such embodiments) from another entity, to the extent provided in Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.

If Xencor or any of its successors or assigns provides to Janssen any of the intellectual property licensed hereunder (or any embodiment thereof) under this Section 13.5.2, Janssen will have the right to perform Xencor’s obligations under ARTICLE 3 with respect to such intellectual property, but neither such provision nor such performance by Janssen will release Xencor from liability resulting from rejection of the license or failure to perform such obligations.

13.5.3Other Rights. All rights, powers and remedies of Janssen provided herein are in addition to and not in substitution for any and all other rights, powers and remedies now or hereafter existing at law or in equity (including the Bankruptcy Code) in the event of the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to Xencor. The Parties agree that they intend the following rights to extend to the maximum extent permitted by law, and to be enforceable under Bankruptcy Code Section 365(n):
13.5.3.1the right of access to any intellectual property (including all embodiments thereof) of Xencor, or any Third Party with whom Xencor contracts to perform an obligation of Xencor under this Agreement, and, in the case of the Third Party, which is

13.6.1.3Subject to Section 13.6.1, Janssen will wind down any Development, Manufacturing and Commercialization activities with respect to the Licensed Products, as quickly as reasonably practicable, subject to compliance with ethical and legal requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, none of Janssen’s costs incurred in connection with winding down Development shall be considered Shared Development Costs (and Xencor shall have no obligation to be responsible for or share such costs) except: (a) with respect to Clinical Studies to the extent set forth in Section 13.6.2.8; or (b) to the extent Xencor directs Janssen to undertake such wind down activity.  Following the  date of notice of termination, Janssen will have no obligation to initiate any Clinical Study or to commence any other new Development activities for the Licensed Products.

15.4.3The arbitration tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators, of whom each Party shall designate one.  If, however, the aggregate award sought by the Parties is less than [***] and equitable relief is not sought, a single arbitrator shall be chosen in accordance with the CPR Rules.  Candidates for the arbitrator position(s) may be interviewed by representatives of the Parties in advance of their selection, provided that all Parties are represented.
15.4.4The Parties agree to select the arbitrator(s) within [***] days of initiation of the arbitration.  The hearing will be concluded within [***] after selection of the arbitrator(s), and the award will be rendered within [***] of the conclusion of the hearing, or of any post hearing briefing, which briefing will be completed by both sides within [***] days after the conclusion of the hearing.  In the event the Parties cannot agree upon a schedule, then the arbitrator(s) shall set the schedule following the time limits set forth above as closely as practical.

15.4.7The arbitrator(s) shall decide the merits of any Dispute in accordance with the law governing this Agreement, without application of any principle of conflict of laws that would result in reference to a different law.  The arbitrator(s) may not apply principles such as “amiable compositeur” or “natural justice and equity.”
15.4.8The arbitrator(s) are expressly empowered to decide dispositive motions in advance of any hearing and shall endeavor to decide such motions as would a United States District Court Judge sitting in the jurisdiction whose substantive law governs.
15.4.9The arbitrator(s) shall render a written opinion stating the reasons upon which the award is based.  The Parties consent to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the district in which the arbitration is held for the enforcement of these provisions and the entry of judgment on any award rendered hereunder.  Should such court for any reason lack jurisdiction, any court with jurisdiction may act in the same fashion.
15.4.10 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in ARTICLE 15, each Party has the right to seek injunctive or equitable relief at any time from any court such as attachment, preliminary injunction, replevin, etc. to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, or preserve the subject matter of the Dispute.  Rule 14 of the CPR Rules does not apply to this Agreement.
15.5Waiver. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL OF ANY ISSUE BY JURY.
ARTICLE 16
MISCELLANEOUS
16.1Assignment; Successors. Neither Party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that either Party may assign this Agreement in its entirety without such consent (but with notice to the other Party following such assignment), to: (a) an Affiliate, as long as the assignee remains an Affiliate of the assigning Party, provided that the assigning Party will remain responsible for the performance of, and primarily liable under, this Agreement notwithstanding such assignment; or (b) a Third Party that acquires all or substantially all of the

business or consolidated assets of such Party (whether by merger, reorganization, acquisition, sale or otherwise).  No assignment of this Agreement will be valid and effective unless and until the assignee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  The terms and conditions of this Agreement will be binding on and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties.  Any assignment of this Agreement not in accordance with this Section 16.1 will be null and void.

16.2Performance by Affiliates. To the extent that this Agreement imposes obligations on Affiliates of a Party, such Party agrees to cause its Affiliates to perform such obligations. Each Party may use one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations and duties under this Agreement, provided that such Party provides prompt written notice to the other Party.  Such Party will remain liable under this Agreement for the prompt payment and performance of all of its obligations under this Agreement.
16.3Subcontracting. Each Party (or its Affiliate) may subcontract the performance of any Research Program activities with respect to the Licensed Products undertaken in accordance with this Agreement to one or more Third Parties (each such Third Party, a “Subcontractor”), provided that any such Third Party must satisfy any subcontractor criteria established by the JRC.  All subcontracted activities will be conducted pursuant to a written agreement between the subcontracting Party and the Subcontractor (a “Subcontract”), which will be consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, will contain confidentiality provisions no less restrictive than those set forth in ARTICLE 10, and will contain a certification that such Third Party and its officers, employees and agents have not been debarred, and are not subject to debarment, pursuant to Section 306 of the United States Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and are not the subject of a conviction described in such section.  The subcontracting Party will oversee the performance of its Subcontractors, and each Party will have the right from time to time, but not more than once per Calendar Year, to audit the performance of the other Party’s Subcontractors.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subcontracting Party (or Party whose Affiliate enters into a Subcontract) will remain liable under this Agreement for the performance of all its obligations under this Agreement and will be responsible for and liable for compliance by its Subcontractors with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.
16.4No Consequential or Punitive Damages. EXCEPT FOR A BREACH OF ARTICLE 10, NEITHER PARTY HERETO NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR MULTIPLE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE EXERCISE OF ITS RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR ANY LOSS OR INJURY TO A PARTY’S OR ITS AFFILIATES’ PROFITS, REVENUES, BUSINESS OR GOODWILL ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF SUCH DAMAGES.  NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 16.4 IS INTENDED TO LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF EITHER PARTY WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFICATION CLAIMS.  
16.5Choice of Law. This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted under, and any court action in accordance with Section 16.6 will apply, the laws of the State of New York excluding:  (i) its conflicts of laws principles; (ii) the United Nations Conventions on Contracts

88

[***] = CERTAIN IDENTIFIED INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS DOCUMENT BECAUSE IT IS BOTH NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE REGISTRANT IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED, AND HAS BEEN MARKED WITH “[***]” TO INDICATE WHERE OMISSIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.


for the International Sale of Goods; (iii) the 1974 Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods (the “1974 Convention”); and (iv) the Protocol amending the 1974 Convention, done at Vienna April 11, 1980.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the interpretation and construction of any Patents will be governed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Patents were filed or granted, as the case may be.

16.6Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Party (i) submits to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in New York, New York, with respect to actions or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement in which a Party brings an action in aid of arbitration, (ii) agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court and (iii) agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court, other than an action or proceeding seeking injunctive relief or brought to enforce an arbitration ruling issued pursuant to Section 15.4.  Each Party waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought.  Each Party may make service on the other Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 16.7.  Nothing in this Section 16.6, however, will affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law.
16.7Notices. All notices, requests, demands, waivers and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement will be in writing and deemed given if delivered personally or sent by overnight courier to the receiving Party, in each case with a copy sent via electronic mail (if an electronic mail address of the party to whom the relevant communication is being made has been designated pursuant hereto and remains a working electronic mail address), at the following addresses (or at such other addresses as will be specified by like notice):

If to Xencor:

[***]

If to Janssen:  

[***]

All such notices, requests, demands, waivers and other communications will be deemed to have been received, if by personal delivery or overnight courier, on the day delivered or, if by facsimile, on the next Business Day following the day on which such facsimile was sent; provided, in each case that a copy is also sent by electronic mail in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 16.7.

16.8Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable

89

[***] = CERTAIN IDENTIFIED INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED FROM THIS DOCUMENT BECAUSE IT IS BOTH NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE REGISTRANT IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED, AND HAS BEEN MARKED WITH “[***]” TO INDICATE WHERE OMISSIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.


provision will be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor will such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application of such provision, in any other jurisdiction.

16.9Captions. All captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and will not be interpreted as having any substantive meaning.
16.10Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments and to do all such other acts as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.
16.11Amendment; No Waiver. No waiver, modification or amendment of any provision of this Agreement will be valid or effective unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of each Party. The failure of either Party to assert a right hereunder or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse a similar subsequent failure to perform any such term or condition.
16.12Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all previous agreements, whether written or oral. Notwithstanding the authority granted to the Committees under this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended only in writing signed by properly authorized representatives of each of Xencor and Janssen. In the event of a conflict between the GDP, on the one hand, and this Agreement, on the other hand, the terms of this Agreement will govern.
16.13Independent Contractors; No Agency. Neither Party will have any responsibility for the hiring, firing or compensation of the other Party’s employees or for any employee benefits. No employee or representative of a Party, including the Xencor sales representatives, will have any authority to bind or obligate the other Party to this Agreement for any sum or in any manner whatsoever, or to create or impose any contractual or other liability on the other Party without said Party’s written approval. For all purposes, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Janssen’s legal relationship under this Agreement to Xencor, and Xencor’s legal relationship under this Agreement to Janssen, will be that of independent contractor and will not constitute a partnership, joint venture or agency.
16.14Force Majeure. Neither Party will be liable for delay or failure in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder (other than the payment of money) if such delay or failure is due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, fires, typhoon, floods, earthquakes, tsunami, pandemics, embargoes, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), terrorism, strikes, lockouts, pandemics or other civil unrest, or omissions or delays in acting by any governmental authority (“Force Majeure”); provided, however, that the affected Party promptly notifies the other Party and further provided that the affected Party will use its Diligent Efforts to avoid or remove such causes of non-performance and to mitigate the effect of such occurrence, and will continue performance with the commercially reasonable dispatch whenever such causes are removed. When such circumstances arise, the Parties will negotiate in

good faith any modifications of the terms of this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate in order to arrive at an equitable solution.

16.15Counterparts; Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, will be deemed to be an original, and all of which counterparts, taken together, will constitute one and the same instrument even if both Parties have not executed the same counterpart. Signatures provided by facsimile transmission or by email of a .pdf attachment will be deemed to be original signatures.
16.16Construction. References to Sections include subsections, which are part of the related Section. Except as otherwise explicitly specified to the contrary, (i) references to a Section, Article, Exhibit or Schedule means a Section or Article of, or a Schedule or Exhibit to, this Agreement and all subsections thereof, unless another agreement is specified; (ii) references to a particular statute or regulation include all rules and regulations thereunder and any successor statute, rules or regulations then in effect, in each case, including the then-current amendments thereto; (iii) words in the singular or plural form include the plural and singular form, respectively; (iv) unless the context requires a different interpretation, the word “or” has the inclusive meaning that is typically associated with the phrase “and/or”; (v) terms “including,” “include(s),” “such as,” and “for example” as used in this Agreement mean including the generality of any description preceding such term and will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation”; (vi) whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number will refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified; (vii) when a time period set forth in this Agreement ends on a day that is not a Business Day, the last day of such time period will be the next Business Day; (viii) references to a particular Person include such Person’s successors and assigns to the extent not prohibited by this Agreement; (ix) all words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require; (x) the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and derivative or similar words refer to this Agreement (including any Exhibits); (xi) neither Party or its Affiliates will be deemed to be acting “on behalf of” the other Party under this Agreement, except to the extent expressly otherwise provided; and (xii) references to sublicensees include direct and indirect sublicensees.
