Ventrus may elect to grant Licensor such a sublicense, provided that Ventrus in its sole discretion determines that such sublicense would not negatively impact the Ventrus Products, Ventrus Therapies or Ventrus’s prospects. In the event Ventrus agrees to grant such a sublicense, (i) those terms set forth in this Agreement applicable to Licensor Products and Licensor Therapies shall apply to such sublicense (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, Licensor’s royalty payment obligations set forth in Section 6.2(d)), and (ii) the Parties agree to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to memorialize such sublicense in a separate written agreement within one hundred and twenty (120) days of Ventrus’s agreement to such sublicense. Further, to the extent that Ventrus agrees to grant such a sublicense, Licensor may further sublicense to one or more Third Parties such sublicensed rights, provided that (x) the terms of such sublicense shall be consistent with and subordinate to the terms of this Agreement, (y) Ventrus shall be named as an intended third party beneficiary under such sublicense, and (z) Licensor promptly provides Ventrus a true and accurate copy of such sublicense following its execution. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Licensor from pursuing the Development and Commercialization of products or therapies utilizing the Licensor IP outside of the Field.
(b) Other Products. During the Term, subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 3.3(b), Licensor may request of Ventrus that Ventrus permit Licensor to Develop and Commercialize with Third Parties Products and Therapies in the Field in the Territory that are not Competing Products or Therapies. To exercise this right with respect to any Product or Therapy that is not a Competing Product or Therapy, Licensor shall notify Ventrus that it desires to Develop and Commercialize such Product or Therapy, which notice shall (i) identify the pharmaceutically active ingredient(s) of such product or therapy and how the Licensor Technology will be used in conjunction therewith, (ii) include Development and Commercialization plans related thereto, including confirmation that Licensor, in conjunction with a Third Party, has the financial capacity to successfully complete such Development and Commercialization plans, and (iii) request a sublicense hereunder in respect of such Product or Therapy. Ventrus shall have sixty (60) days to review the foregoing to determine whether or not to grant Licensor a sublicense to the Licensor Technology for the purpose of such Development and/or Commercialization. Licensor may not Develop or Commercialize such Product or Therapy without Ventrus’s prior written approval in each instance, which may be withheld in Ventrus’s sole discretion. In the event Ventrus agrees to grant such a sublicense, (x) those terms set forth in this Agreement applicable to Licensor Products and Licensor Therapies shall apply to such sublicense (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, Licensor’s royalty payment obligations set forth in Section 6.2(d)), and (y) the Parties agree to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to memorialize such sublicense in a separate written agreement within one hundred and twenty (120) days of Ventrus’s agreement to such sublicense. Further, to the extent that Ventrus agrees to grant such a sublicense, Licensor may further sublicense to one or more Third Parties such sublicensed rights, provided that (I) the terms of such sublicense shall be consistent with and subordinate to the terms of this Agreement, (II) Ventrus shall be named as an intended third party beneficiary under such sublicense, and (III) Licensor promptly provides Ventrus a true and accurate copy of such sublicense following its execution.

Subject to the other provisions of this Article XI, Licensor shall defend Ventrus, its Affiliates, and its sublicensees and each of their respective officers, directors, agents, representatives, and employees (collectively, “Ventrus Indemnitees”) from and against all charges, allegations, notices, civil, criminal, or administrative claims, demands, complaints, causes of action, proceedings, or investigations of a Third Party (collectively, “Claims”), and indemnify and hold harmless such Ventrus Indemnitees from and against any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, awards, settlements, penalties, fines, sanctions, damages, and reasonable costs (including awards of court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”) that result from any such Claims, where and to the extent that such Claims are made or brought against any Ventrus Indemnitee by or on behalf of a Third Party, and solely to the extent such Claim is based on or arises out of (a) the breach of any obligation, covenant, warranty, or representation made by Licensor under this Agreement, or (b) Licensor’s or its Affiliates’ gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that Licensor’s obligations except in each case to the extent that such Claim or Loss is attributable to (i) any matter for which Ventrus is obligated to indemnify a Licensor Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11.2, below, or (ii) results from the negligence or willful misconduct of any Ventrus Indemnitees.
11.2 Indemnification by Ventrus. Subject to the other provisions of this Article XI, Ventrus shall defend Licensor, its Affiliates, and its sublicensees and each of their respective officers, directors, agents, representatives, and employees (collectively, “Licensor Indemnitees”), from and against all Claims, and indemnify and hold harmless such Licensor Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses that result from such Claims, where and to the extent that such Claims are made or brought against any Licensor Indemnitee by or on behalf of a Third Party, and solely to the extent such Claim is based on or arises out of:
(a) any violation of applicable Law by Ventrus or its Affiliates in the course of its activities under this Agreement;
(b) the breach of any obligation, covenant, warranty, or representation made by Ventrus under this Agreement;

25 |
(d) are attributable to a Product or Therapy Developed, Commercialized, or Manufactured or supplied by Ventrus (including any successor of Ventrus) or a Third Party authorized by Ventrus to Manufacture and/or supply a Product or Therapy.
provided, however, except in each case to the extent that such Claim or Loss is attributable to any matter for which Licensor is obligated to indemnify a Ventrus Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11.1, above.
11.3 Indemnification Procedures. A Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to either Section 11.1 or Section 11.2 will hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnitee.” A Party obligated to indemnify an Indemnitee hereunder will hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnitor.” In the event a Ventrus Indemnitee or Licensor Indemnitee is seeking indemnification under either Section 11.1 or Section 11.2, Ventrus or Licensor, as applicable, will inform the Indemnitor of a Claim as soon as reasonably practicable after it receives notice of the Claim, it being understood and agreed that the failure to give notice of a Claim as provided in this Section 11.3 will not relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that such Indemnitor is actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice. The Indemnitee will permit the Indemnitor to assume direction and control of the defense of the Claim, and, at the Indemnitor’s expense, will cooperate as reasonably requested in the defense of the Claim. The Indemnitee will have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense. The Indemnitor may not settle such Claim, or otherwise consent to an adverse judgment in such Claim, without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall not require such consent with respect to the settlement of any Claim under which the sole relief provided is for monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnitor, which would not materially diminish or limit or otherwise adversely affect the rights, activities, or financial interests of the Indemnitee, and which does not result in any finding or admission of fault by the Indemnitee. If the Indemnitor does not assume direction and control of the defense of the Claim, the Indemnitee may not settle such Claim, or otherwise consent to an adverse judgment in such Claim, without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
11.4 Setoff. If and to the extent either Party fails to pay, reimburse, or credit the other Party for any amount owed when due under this Agreement, then the Party to whom such amount is owed may, at its election, without demand, charge and setoff such amount against amounts otherwise due from it or its Affiliates, and the owing Party hereby authorizes all such charges and setoffs.
11.5 Insurance. Ventrus shall, and Ventrus shall require any sublicensee to, at all times procure and maintain, at its (or, in the case of a sublicensee, sublicensee’s) cost and expense, product liability insurance in amounts that are necessary, reasonable, and customary to cover any and all of the Development and Commercialization activities in the Field in the Territory.

11.6 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY, ITS AFFILIATES, SUBLICENSEES, SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS, OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 11.5 IS INTENDED TO OR SHALL LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF ANY PARTY UNDER SECTION 11.1 OR SECTION 11.2 OR DAMAGES AVAILABLE FOR A PARTY’S BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS IN ARTICLE VIII, OR RELATING TO A PARTY’S BREACH OF REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

(d) Product Specific Breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, in no event will any such breach described in Section 12.3(a) or Section 12.3(b) which is specifically related to a particular Product or Therapy be a basis upon which to terminate this Agreement as an entirety or with respect to any other Product, it being understood that any material breach that is related to the Licensor Technology, generally, shall be deemed to relate to all Products and Therapies, and accordingly may constitute the basis for termination of this Agreement as an entirety.

On the other hand, if as a result of the arbitration process it is determined that the notice of termination was improper, then no termination shall have occurred and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

The Parties agree that any arbitration will be administered by the AAA and that there shall be one, sole arbitrator who shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties and who shall be an attorney with experience in and knowledge of the biopharma industry.

13.10 Waivers. No failure on the part of Ventrus or Licensor to exercise and no delay in exercising any right, power, remedy, or privilege under this Agreement, or provided by statute or at law or in equity or otherwise, shall impair, prejudice, or constitute a waiver of any such right, power, remedy, or privilege or be construed as a waiver of any breach of this Agreement or as an acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, remedy, or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy, or privilege.

Neither Party shall permit any of its Affiliates to commit any act (including any act of omission) that such Party is prohibited hereunder from committing directly. To the extent that the rights granted to a Party hereunder may be and are exercised by an Affiliate of such Party, such Affiliate shall be bound by the corresponding obligations of such Party.
13.12 Expenses.

13.14 Force Majeure. Both Parties shall be excused from the performance of their obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such performance is prevented by force majeure and the nonperforming Party promptly provides notice of the prevention to the other Party. Such excuse shall be continued so long as the condition constituting force majeure continues and the nonperforming Party takes reasonable efforts to remove the condition. For purposes of this Agreement, force majeure shall include conditions beyond the control of the Parties, including an act of God, war, civil commotion, terrorist act, labor strike or lock-out, epidemic, failure or default of public utilities or common carriers, destruction of production facilities or materials by fire, earthquake, storm, or like catastrophe, and failure of plant or machinery (provided that such failure could not have been prevented by the exercise of skill, diligence, and prudence that would be reasonably and ordinarily expected from a skilled and experienced Person engaged in the same type of undertaking under the same or similar circumstances). If a force majeure persists for more than ninety (90) days, then the Parties will discuss in good faith the modification of the Parties’ obligations under this Agreement in order to mitigate the delays caused by such force majeure.
13.15 Export Clause. Each Party acknowledges that the Laws and regulations of the U.S. restrict the export and re-export of commodities and technical data of U.S. origin. Each Party agrees that it shall not export or re-export restricted commodities or the technical data of the other Party in any form without the appropriate U.S. and foreign government licenses.
