12.4 Audit Rights. During each calendar quarter in which Royalties are due under Agreement and for a minimum of 18 months following the calendar quarter to which such records pertain, Coronado shall maintain, and shall require its Affiliates to maintain, books and records, consistent with sound business and accounting practices and in such form and in such detail as to enable the Revogenex, through an independent certified public accountant, to verify compliance with Applicable Law and the terms of this Agreement and any related agreement, including the amounts payable and other costs and financial information associated with Coronado’s duties under this Agreement. Upon the prior written request of Revogenex made at least 45 days in advance, but not more than once in each calendar year, the Coronado shall permit an independent certified public accounting firm selected by the Revogenex to have access, during normal business hours, to such of its records as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of payments, reports and the like made to Revogenex with respect to any calendar year ending not more than three (3) years prior to Revogenex’s request. Coronado shall provide reasonable cooperation with such accounting firm and shall not charge Revogenex for such cooperation. The accounting firm shall be bound by obligations of confidentiality and may disclose Revogenex only whether the records are correct or not and the specific details concerning any discrepancies; otherwise the accounting firm shall be prohibited from disclosing any information obtained or generated in connection with such review to any other Person. All audit materials and reports shall be held in confidence and not used for any purpose except for enforcing this Agreement. Prompt adjustment shall be made for any errors disclosed by such examination. If said audit reveals underpayments or other material record-keeping errors in excess of 5% of the amount actually due hereunder with respect to the calendar year in question, Coronado will pay all costs associated with such audit or will reimburse Revogenex for all costs associated with such audit within 30 days of receipt of notice setting forth such costs. Any underpayment shall be paid to Revogenex within 30 days of the report that identifies such overpayment or underpayment.
12.5 Currency; Payment Method; and Timing. All payments made under this Agreement shall be in U.S. dollars (USD) and shall be paid by wire transfer in same day funds. With respect to Net Sales invoiced in a currency other than United States dollars, such Net Sales will be converted into the United States dollar equivalent using the average conversion rate existing in the United States (as reported in The Wall Street Journal, New York edition) during the applicable calendar quarter.
12.6 Legally Required Taxes. Coronado shall be entitled to deduct any applicable withholding or other taxes, levies or charges that are required under Applicable Law to be withheld from any amounts payable to Revogenex hereunder; provided, such amounts are reflected on the payment and sales reports delivered pursuant to Section 12.2.

Any Indemnitee making a claim for indemnification under this Article 10 shall notify the Indemnitor of the claim in writing promptly after receiving written notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim against it (if by a third party) (each, a “Third Party Claim”), describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis thereof; provided, however, that the failure to so notify an Indemnitor shall not affect the obligations of the Indemnitor hereunder unless the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced by such failure.

17.6 Expenses. Other than as set forth herein, each Party will bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
17.7 Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.

Any permitted assignee of either Party will, as a condition to such assignment, assume all obligations of its assignor arising under this Agreement following such assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns and permitted transferees of the Parties hereto.

The rights, obligations and liabilities of the Parties shall be several and not joint or collective.
17.16 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
17.17 Further Assurances. Each Party hereto agrees to execute such further documents or agreements and take such further actions as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to effect the purpose of this Agreement and carry out its provisions.
36 |
