(b) commits a material breach of any other provision of this Agreement which is not cured (if capable of being cured) within the sixty (60) day period after receipt of written notice thereof from YALE, or upon receipt of such notice if such breach is not capable of being cured; or
(c) fails to obtain or maintain adequate insurance as described in Article 14, whereupon YALE may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to LICENSEE.
13.2 This Agreement shall terminate automatically without any notice to LICENSEE in the event LICENSEE shall cease to carry on its business or becomes INSOLVENT, or a petition in bankruptcy is filed against LICENSEE and is consented to, acquiesced in or remains undismissed for sixty (60) days, or LICENSEE makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or a receiver is appointed for LICENSEE.

Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
13.3 LICENSEE shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to YALE:
(a) at any time on three (3) months’ notice to YALE, provided LICENSEE is not in breach and upon payment of all amounts due YALE throughout the effective date of termination; or
(b) in the event YALE commits a material breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and such breach is not cured (if capable of being cured) within the sixty (60) day period after receipt of written notice thereof from LICENSEE, or upon receipt of such notice if such breach is not capable of being cured,
13.4 Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, all rights and licenses granted to LICENSEE under the terms of this Agreement are terminated. Upon such termination, and subject to Article 13.4, YALE may elect, in its sole discretion, to cause LICENSEE, its SUBLICENSEES, or AFFILIATES to immediately cease to manufacture or sell some or all ROYALTY PRODUCTS.

(d) By the Company, upon approval of the Board, if (i) Merger Sub shall have (A) failed to commence the Offer within 10 days following the date of this Agreement or (B) terminated the Offer without having accepted any Shares for payment thereunder, unless such failure to pay for Shares shall have been caused by or resulted from the failure of the Company to satisfy the conditions set forth in paragraphs (f) or (g) of Annex A, (ii) prior to the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer, the Board shall have withdrawn or modified in a manner adverse to Merger Sub or Parent its approval or recommendation of the Offer, this Agreement or the Merger in order to approve a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that such termination under this clause (ii) shall not be effective until the Company has made payment to Parent of the Termination Fee (as hereinafter defined) required to be paid pursuant to Section 8.2(a) and has deposited with a mutually acceptable escrow agent $2 million for reimbursement to Parent and Merger Sub of Expenses (as hereinafter defined) or (iii) Parent or Merger Sub shall have breached in any material respect any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which failure to perform is incapable of being cured or has not been cured within 20 days after the giving of written notice to Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, except, in any case, such failures which are not reasonably likely to affect adversely Parent's or Merger Sub's ability to complete the Offer or the Merger.

Effect; Effective Date Upon (i) delivery to the Agent of a duly executed Assignment Agreement, together with any consents required by Sections 12.3(a) and 12.3(b), and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Agent), such Assignment Agreement shall become effective on the effective date specified by the Agent in such Assignment Agreement. The Assignment Agreement shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and Credit Exposure under the applicable Assignment Agreement constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such Assignment Agreement, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the transferor Lender shall be released with respect to the Commitment and Credit Exposure assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Agent. In the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which survive payment of the Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.3 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.2. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3(c), the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Borrower shall, if the transferor Lender or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.
