Technology Transfer Services. OPKO will transfer to TESARO (or TESARO’s designees) all OPKO Know How and related technical information, and provide such support, as is reasonably necessary to enable TESARO to assume responsibility for the research, formulation, development, testing and manufacture of Licensed Product, and, during the period commencing on the Effective Date and continuing until the later of the completion of all Technical Transfer Services (as defined below) or **** from the Effective Date (such period being hereafter referred to as the “Transfer Period”), will provide reasonable ongoing assistance to TESARO in connection with such transfer and use of the OPKO Know-how. In connection with the foregoing, OPKO will perform the activities set forth in Parts Band C of this Technology Transfer Plan (the “Technology Transfer Services”). In addition, during the Transfer Period, OPKO will make its personnel reasonably available to TESARO to respond to questions related to the OPKO Know-how in connection with any of the activities described in this Technology Transfer Plan, and will provide such ongoing support and assistance as TESARO may reasonably request in the transition of development and manufacturing responsibility for Licensed Products to TESARO. TESARO acknowledges that OPKO and OPKO personnel were not involved in the discovery, manufacture, formulation, sourcing, research or development of the Licensed Product or any API and have only gained information relating to the Licensed Product in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement and its research and development efforts undertaken since the consummation of the Asset Purchase Agreement in November 2009, much of which has been undertaken through the assistance of Third Party consultants. OPKO intended to use Third Parties for, and therefore had not engaged in, the development or formulation of dosage forms or the manufacture of drug product or API in support of the clinical development program or commercialization of Licensed Product. Accordingly, OPKO’s efforts, support and assistance and TESARO’s expectations under this Technology Transfer Plan must be considered in light of OPKO’ s limited level of expertise, knowledge and familiarity with Licensed Product. Additionally, in making the decision to enter into the Exclusive License Agreement, TESARO has conducted its own independent investigation, review and analysis of the Licensed Product, OPKO Patent Rights and OPKO Know-how, and has had complete access to all of OPKO’s files, information, materials and data, and records relating to the Licensed Product. In connection with the foregoing, at the request of TESARO, OPKO will seek the assistance of Merck & Co., Inc. to the extent such support continues to be available under Section 2.5 of the Asset Purchase Agreement, and any other Third Party support, as specified in paragraph 2 of this Part A. To the extent information, data or materials referred to in this Technology Transfer Plan are not in the possession of OPKO, or cannot be obtained from Merck under the Asset Purchase Agreement pursuant to OPKO’s rights thereunder, OPKO will have no obligations hereunder or in the Agreement to provide or transfer such requested information, data or materials. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Technology Transfer Plan will not be considered a limitation on, or a narrowing of, the obligations of either Party under the Agreement.
