Research Term The Research Program will be carried out during the two (2) year period following the Effective Date, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 13 (such period, as may be extended pursuant to this Section 3.2, being the “Research Term”). BMS shall have the option to extend the Research Term for three (3) additional one (1) year periods on a year-by-year basis after the initial two (2) year period. At least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the scheduled expiration of the Research Term (i.e., the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date) BMS will provide Ambrx with a nonbinding, good faith indication of whether or not BMS intends to extend the Research Term. In order to exercise its option to extend the Research Term, BMS must provide Ambrx a written notice exercising BMS’ option to extend the Research Term at least ninety (90) days prior to the scheduled expiration of the Research Term (i.e., the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date). If BMS does not provide such written notice, the Research Term will end when scheduled (i.e., on the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date). For each extension of the Research Term, subject to Section 3.4, the JRC will prepare an update to the Research Plan which will include an updated Budget for the BMS-funded Ambrx FTEs to perform the work required under such Research Plan and the projected Third Party Costs.
Research Program Term The Research Program shall be conducted during the period of five years commencing as of the Agreement Date ("Research Program Term"). Upon not later than seventy-five (75) days' prior written notice JT may, in its sole judgment, terminate the Research Program at the end of the third (3/rd/) year and fourth (4/th/) year of the Research Program. The RMC may terminate the Research Program any time during the Research Program Term if it unanimously determines the Research Program is no longer scientifically useful or that all potential Products would not be commercially viable. In case of such an early termination by JT or the RMC, JT shall be exempt from any payment(s) under Section 10(a) that would have become due and payable after the effective date of such early termination. Following any termination of the Research Program (i) that occurs simultaneously with the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 13 (i.e., no compound or Lead Compound has been designated previously a Collaboration Lead Compound in accordance with Section 3(b) and no Independent Lead Compound is being developed in accordance with Section 3(m)) or (ii) that is followed at some future date by the termination by JT of Development or co-promotion of any Collaboration Lead Compound and/or Product pursuant to Sections 3(l) or 5(c), respectively, or development of an Independent Lead Compound in accordance with Section 3(m) (A) any licenses granted by Tularik to JT will terminate, (B) JT will grant to Tularik an exclusive, sublicensable, worldwide license, to make, use and sell compounds, Collaboration Lead Compounds or Products under JT's interest in Program Patents and Program Know-How and (C) under the terms and conditions to be separately agreed, JT will also grant to Tularik a nonexclusive, sublicensable, worldwide license under any JT Patent Rights and Know-How to the extent necessary to practice the license granted under the Program Patents and Program Know-How in (B) (including, with respect to compounds, a limited number of JT's library compounds approved by JT); provided, however, that in the event the Research Program terminates but the Agreement has not terminated with respect to designated Collaboration Lead Compounds, Independent Lead Compounds and/or Products as provided in Section 2(g)(ii), Sections 2(g)(A), (B) and (C) shall apply only to those compounds, Collaboration Lead Compounds, Independent Lead Compounds and Products for which Development or co-promotion shall have been terminated and/or to those compounds or Lead Compounds that have not been designated previously a Collaboration Lead Compound in accordance with Section 3(b) or an Independent Lead Compound in accordance with Section 3(m); provided further that in the event that JT elects to pursue a Discontinued Compound or a Non-Proposed Compound on or before the first anniversary of the expiration or termination of the Research Program Term pursuant to Section 3(b)(iii) or 3(b)(iv), respectively, Sections 2(g)(A), (B) and (C) shall not apply to such Discontinued Compound or Non-Proposed Compound until such time as JT shall have terminated the Development or co-promotion of such Discontinued Compound or Non- Proposed Compound. Tularik will then be free to pursue clinical development and registration of such compounds, Lead Compounds and/or Products without obligation to JT except as provided in Section 4(f) or Section 5(c), as appropriate.
Development Program A. Development Activities to be Undertaken (Please break activities into subunits with the date of completion of major milestones)
Collaboration Management Promptly after the Effective Date, each Party will appoint a person who will oversee day-to-day contact between the Parties for all matters related to the management of the Collaboration Activities in between meetings of the JSC and will have such other responsibilities as the Parties may agree in writing after the Effective Date. One person will be designated by Merck (the “Merck Program Director”) and one person will be designated by Moderna (the “Moderna Program Director,”) together will be the “Program Directors”. Each Party may replace its Program Director at any time by notice in writing to the other Party. Any Program Director may designate a substitute to temporarily perform the functions of that Program Director by written notice to the other Party. The initial Program Directors will be: For Moderna: [***] For Merck: [***]
Research Program The term “Research Program” shall mean the research program to be undertaken by TSRI under the direction and control of the Principal Investigator as expressly set forth on Exhibit A hereto.
Conduct of Research Program Each Party:
Development Milestone Payments In partial consideration for the rights and licenses granted to Coya hereunder, within ten days after the first achievement of each milestone event in a given Indication set forth in this Section 5.2 (Development Milestone Payments) with respect to a Product (each, a “Development Milestone Event”) by or on behalf of Coya or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees, Coya shall provide ARScience Bio written notice to ARScience Bio identifying the Development Milestone Event achieved. Upon receipt of any such notice of first achievement of a Development Milestone Event by Coya or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, ARScience Bio will promptly invoice Coya for the applicable Development Milestone Event and Coya will make a milestone payment to ARScience Bio in the amount set forth in this Section 5.2 (Development Milestone Payments) corresponding to such Development Milestone Event (each, a “Development Milestone Payment”) within 45 days of receipt of such invoice. On an Indication-by-Indication basis, each Development Milestone Payment shall be payable only upon the first achievement of the corresponding Development Milestone Event by a Product, in any given Indication for which the Development Milestone Events have not been previously achieved (each such Indication, a “New Indication”). No amounts shall be due for subsequent or repeated achievements of such Development Milestone Event with respect to the same or different Mono Product or Combination Product, as applicable, in such Indication. Accordingly and for clarity, the Development Milestone Payment shall be paid only once, when first achieved by Coya, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee, but no payment shall be due if the same milestone is subsequently achieved by one of Coya, an Affiliate or a Sublicensee. For clarity, the amounts owed in Column (a) below shall be due for the first Combination Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication and the amounts owned in Column (c) below shall be due for the first Mono Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication. Any Combination Product or Mono Product to achieve the Development Milestone Events in a New Indication after the first achievement of the Development Milestone Events as described in the foregoing sentence will cause the amounts in Column (b) with respect to a Combination Product and Column (d) with respect to a Mono Product to be due and payable by Coya upon each such occurrence. If the first Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in any Indication is a Combination Product, the amounts in Column (a) below shall be due and payable by Coya. If the next Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in a New Indication is a Mono Product, the amounts in Column (c) below would be due and payable by Coya; provided, that if such next Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event in a New Indication is a Combination Product, the amounts in Column (b) would be due and payable by Coya. By way of example, if a Combination Product achieves IND Acceptance in ALS, and is the first Product to achieve a Development Milestone Event under this Agreement, [***] will be due and payable by Coya. If subsequently a Mono Product achieves IND Acceptance in ALS, no Development Milestone Payments will be due and payable by Coya under this Agreement. However, if subsequently any Combination Product achieves IND Acceptance in Alzheimer’s disease, [***] would be due and payable by Coya.
Development Milestones Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, no later than [**] following the first occurrence of each event described below (each, a “Development Milestone”), on Product-by-Product basis Moderna shall pay Carisma the non-refundable and non-creditable amounts set forth below for each Product to achieve such event (each, a “Development Milestone Payment”): Development MilestoneDevelopment Milestone Payment (in US$ millions) [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] Moderna shall provide written notice to Carisma of the achievement of each Development Milestone within [**] after such achievement. If a Development Milestone for a Product is achieved without the preceding Development Milestone(s) having been achieved for such Product, then the Development Milestone Payment for such preceding Development Milestone(s) shall be paid by Moderna to Carisma together with the Development Milestone Payment for the Development Milestone that was achieved. For example, if the [**] Development Milestone [**] in the table above is achieved for a Product but the [**] Development Milestone [**] in the table above had not been achieved for such Product, then Moderna would pay the Development Milestone Payment for both such [**] Development Milestone and [**] Development Milestone upon achievement of the [**] Development Milestone. Each of the Development Milestone Payments set forth above shall be payable one time only per Product. If Moderna or its Affiliates or Sublicensees Develops a Product that has achieved at least one Development Milestone and subsequently discontinues Development of such Product and Develops a different Product incorporating or directed to the same combination of Collaboration Targets (whether one Collaboration Target or multiple Collaboration Targets), then Moderna shall be required to pay Development Milestone Payments for such different Product only for Development Milestones that had not been achieved by such discontinued Product.
Joint Research Committee The Parties hereby establish a committee to facilitate the Research Program as follows:
Commercial Milestone Payments Green Cross shall pay to MacroGenics the Net Sales milestone payments set forth below, which shall be due and payable within *** after the end of the first Calendar Year during which such milestone is triggered.
