Common use of Collaboration Products Clause in Contracts

Collaboration Products. The financial terms for any Product that is a Collaboration Product (including royalty rates and sales milestone payments) and the diligence obligations for any such Product (including Commercial Launch obligations and Minimum Revenue Requirements) must be mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties, taking into consideration the relative contributions made by each Party to the development of such Product, before such Product is included in this Agreement. Following FMI’s decision to Commercially Launch a Collaboration Product in the Territory, FMI shall provide written notice to Roche, and if the Parties cannot agree to terms and conditions for the inclusion of such Collaboration Product as a Product in this Agreement within […***…] (the “Initial Discussion Period”), then the Parties shall each select an independent Third Party expert who is neutral, disinterested and impartial, and has significant relevant experience in the development and commercialization of pharmaceutical products (the “Expert”). Each Expert will within […***…] select a […***…] Expert to form a panel of […***…] Experts (“Panel”). The date on which such Panel is in place will be the “Arbitration Commencement Date.” Each Party shall within […***…] following the Arbitration Commencement Date prepare and deliver to both the Panel and the other Party its proposed financial terms (including royalty rates and sales milestone payments) and diligence obligations (including initial launch and minimum revenue requirements) (collectively, the “Arbitration Offer”) to resolve the disputed matter for such Product and a memorandum (the “Supporting Memorandum”) in support thereof; provided that such Arbitration Offer shall be on the same or substantially similar terms as the last offer made by such Party to the other Party during the Initial Discussion Period. The Panel will also be provided with a copy of this Agreement. Within […***…] after receipt of the other Party’s Supporting Memorandum, each Party may submit to the Panel (with a copy to the other Party) a rebuttal to the other Party’s Supporting Memorandum (a “Rebuttal”), which may include a revision, marked to show changes, of either Party’s proposed terms. Neither Party may have communications (either written or oral) with the Panel other than for the sole purpose of engaging the Panel or as expressly permitted in this Section 8.3.5. Within […***…] after the Panel’s receipt of each Party’s Rebuttal (or the expiration of the period for the Parties to submit a Rebuttal, if earlier), the Panel will select, between the proposals provided by the Parties, the proposal that the Panel believes most accurately reflects an equitable result for FMI and Roche (the “Selected Agreement”). The Panel shall not have the authority to modify a proposal initially submitted by a Party. The decision of the Panel shall be the sole, exclusive and binding remedy and the Selected Agreement shall become a binding and enforceable agreement between the Parties. The Panel will have reasonable discretion to request additional information, hold a hearing, and extend the time frame for reaching a decision regarding the dispute at issue. The Experts’ fees and expenses will be paid by the Party whose proposal is not selected by the Panel. Each Party will bear and pay its own expenses incurred in connection with any proceedings under this Section 8.3.5.
