Such further written assurances shall be delivered within *** of written request by Trubion. Trubion may so request at any time during the *** period following completion of the subject transaction. Subject to the operation of Section 9.10.2(b) below, the failure of such Successor Party to provide the requested written assurance shall be deemed to be a material breach of the Agreement.

If Trubion and such Successor Party do not agree on such terms and conditions within *** after Trubion gives the Exercise Notice (or such longer period as may be agreed to by such parties), or if such Successor Party notifies Trubion in writing during such *** period that it does not desire to engage in such discussions, Trubion shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice given by Trubion within ten (10) days (i) after the end of such *** period (or such longer period as agreed to by such parties) or (ii) after receipt of such notice from such Successor Party, to require such Successor Party to enter into an agreement to divest to a Third Party either (a) the Existing Activities or (b) the relevant CD20 Products or ***, as the case may be (such Third Party, in the case of a divestiture of the relevant CD20 Products or ***, to be reasonably acceptable to Trubion) within *** after the date of such notice by Trubion, subject to applicable governmental and regulatory approval.
