(a) Voluntary Termination by Bayer. Bayer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time upon not less than [***] days’ prior written notice to ImmunoGen.

(b) Termination for Breach. Either Party may terminate this Agreement, effective immediately upon written notice to the other Party, for a breach by the other Party of any material term of this Agreement that remains uncured [***] days ([***] days if the breach is a failure of Bayer to make any payment required hereunder) after the non-breaching Party first gives written notice of such breach to the other Party; provided, however, that if the asserted

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

breach is cured or shown to be non-existent within the applicable cure period, the notice of breach shall be deemed automatically withdrawn.

(c) Termination for Insolvency. If either Party files for protection under bankruptcy laws, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, appoints or suffers the appointment of a receiver or trustee over its property, files a petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency act or has any such petition filed against it which is not discharged within [***] days of the filing thereof, then the other Party may terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon written notice to such Party.

If either Party undergoes a voluntary dissolution or winding-up of its affairs, then the other Party may terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon written notice to such Party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and unless ImmunoGen specifies otherwise in writing, no such termination of this Agreement shall be construed as a termination

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

of any valid sublicense of any Third Party Sublicensee hereunder, and thereafter each such Sublicensee shall be considered a direct licensee of ImmunoGen, provided that (i) such Sublicensee is then in full compliance with all terms and conditions of its sublicense, (ii) all accrued payments obligations to ImmunoGen have been paid, and (iii) such Sublicensee agrees at least [***] days prior to the effective date of such termination to assume all obligations of Bayer under this Agreement.
