Celgene acknowledges that a decision to pursue the scenario described in subsection (b) will not be made based primarily on Celgene’s payment obligations to Acceleron under this Agreement or the ACE-536 Agreement, but rather will take into consideration such things as the resources as would normally be exerted or employed by a similarly-situated biopharmacecutical company, product life, stage of development, safety and efficacy, development costs, operating costs, the anticipated prescription label, the nature of the product, the clinical setting in which the product is expected to be used, competitiveness of the marketplace, regulatory environment, the patent or other proprietary position of the product, and other clinical, commercial, regulatory or manufacturing conditions then prevailing.
