2.5 Non-Assignable Assets.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and subject to the provisions of this Section 2.5, to the extent that the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, or attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, to Buyer of any Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability would result in a violation of applicable Law, or would require the consent, authorization, approval or waiver of a Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement (including any Governmental Authority), and such consent, authorization, approval or waiver will not have been obtained prior to the Closing Date, then this Agreement will not be deemed to constitute a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, or an attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, thereof (and for the sake of clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.5, all such assets and Liabilities and obligations will be treated as Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities, respectively, for all other purposes of this Agreement); provided, however, that the Closing will occur notwithstanding the foregoing without any adjustment to the Purchase Price and without giving rise to any rights of indemnification under Article 7 in favor of any of the Buyer’s Indemnified Parties in respect of any breach of this Agreement to the extent that such breach was caused only by the failure to obtain such consent, authorization, approval or waiver (and Section 7.2(e) will apply in such situation); provided that, for further clarity, any breach resulting from Seller’s failure to disclose in the Schedules the requirement to obtain any such consent, authorization, approval or waiver or the Seller’s failure to comply with its covenants in
Page 16 of 59
this Section 2.5 and in Sections 6.2 and 6.3 with respect to such consent, authorization, approval or waiver, shall in each case remain subject to the rights of indemnification under Article 7 in favor of any of the Buyer’s Indemnified Parties. Following the Closing Date, Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such required consent, authorization, approval or waiver, and Buyer and Seller will cooperate with each other to obtain consents from the third parties that are described in Schedule 6.3; provided, however, that neither Seller nor Buyer will be required to pay any consideration therefor. Once such consent, authorization, approval, waiver, release, substitution or amendment is obtained, Seller will then sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer the relevant Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability to which such consent, authorization, approval, waiver, release, substitution or amendment relates for no additional consideration. Applicable Transfer Taxes in connection with such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or license will be paid by Buyer in accordance with Section 8.2, except to the extent applicable Transfer Taxes were already paid by the Buyer at the Closing Time.
(b) To the extent that any Purchased Asset and/or Assumed Liability has not or cannot be transferred to Buyer on or following the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 2.5, Buyer and Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into such arrangements (such as subleasing, sublicensing or subcontracting) to provide to the Parties the economic and, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, operational equivalent of the transfer of such Purchased Asset and/or Assumed Liability to Buyer from and after the Closing Date and the performance by Buyer of its obligations with respect thereto (and for the sake of clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.5, all such assets and Liabilities and obligations will be treated as Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities, respectively, for all other purposes of this Agreement). Subject to applicable Law, Buyer will, as agent or subcontractor for Seller pay, perform and discharge fully the Liabilities and obligations of Seller thereunder from and after the Closing Date (and for the sake of clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.5, all such assets and Liabilities and obligations will be treated as Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities, respectively, for all other purposes of this Agreement). To the extent permitted under applicable Law, Seller will, at Buyer’s expense, hold in trust for and pay to Buyer promptly upon receipt thereof, such Purchased Asset and all income, proceeds and other monies received by Seller to the extent related to such Purchased Asset in connection with the arrangements under this Section 2.5. Seller will be permitted to set off against such amounts all direct costs associated with the retention and maintenance of such Purchased Assets. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 2.5 will not apply to any consent or approval required under any antitrust, competition or trade regulation Law, which consent or approval will be governed by Section 6.1(a)-(b).
ARTICLE 3
PAYMENT; CLOSING
3.1 Payment. Subject to any adjustment hereunder, the aggregate consideration for the Purchased Assets will be (a) an amount in cash equal to US$9,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”) payable at Closing by the Buyer to the Seller, plus (b) the assumption, at Closing by the Buyer, of the Assumed Liabilities, plus or minus (c) the Post-Closing Adjustment (collectively, the “Total Consideration”).
Page 17 of 59
3.2 Purchase Price Adjustment.
(a) Post-Closing Adjustment.
(i) Within *** (***) days after the date on which Buyer receives a copy of the balance sheet of the Radiopharmacy Business as of the Closing Date prepared by Seller under the Transition Services Agreement, Buyer will prepare and deliver to Seller (A) a statement setting forth its calculation of Closing Working Capital, which statement will be prepared in accordance with the Applicable Accounting Principles and will be substantially in the form of Schedule 3.2(a)(i)(1) (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”), and (B) a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of Buyer that the Closing Working Capital Statement was prepared using the Applicable Accounting Principles. For purposes of facilitating interpretation of this Section 3.2, Schedule 3.2(a)(i)(2) contains an illustrative Closing Working Capital Statement calculating Closing Working Capital as of the Reference Time in accordance with the Applicable Accounting Principles.
(ii) The “Post-Closing Adjustment” will be an amount equal to the Closing Working Capital, minus $*** (the “Target Working Capital”). If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, Buyer will pay to Seller an amount equal to the Post-Closing Adjustment. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, Seller will pay to Buyer an amount equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment.
(b) Examination and Review.
(i) After receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement, Seller will have *** (***) days from the date on which Buyer has provided to Seller all access and information reasonably requested for such purposes (the “Review Period”) to review the Closing Working Capital Statement. During the Review Period, Seller and its accountants will have full access to the relevant books and records of Buyer, the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, Buyer and/or Buyer’s accountants to the extent that they relate to the Closing Working Capital Statement and to such historical financial information (to the extent in Buyer’s possession) relating to the Closing Working Capital Statement as Seller may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Working Capital Statement and to prepare a Statement of Objections.
(ii) On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, Seller may object to the Closing Working Capital Statement by delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth Seller’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for Seller’s disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If Seller fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, then the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement will be deemed to have been accepted by
Page 18 of 59
Seller. If Seller delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer and Seller will negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within *** (***) days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, then the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital Statement with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by Buyer and Seller, will be final and binding.
(c) Resolution of Disputes. If Seller and Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts”; and any amounts not so disputed, the “Undisputed Amounts”) will be submitted for resolution to Ernst & Young (as long as the individuals at such firm involved in resolving the dispute are independent of Buyer and Seller and their respective Affiliates) (the “Independent Accountant”) which, acting as experts and not arbitrators, will resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, and the Closing Working Capital Statement. The Independent Accountant will only decide the specific items under dispute by the Parties and its decision for each Disputed Amount must be in accordance with this Section 3.2 and the Applicable Accounting Principles and within the range of values assigned by Buyer and Seller to each such item in the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.
(d) Fees of the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant will be paid by Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to Seller or Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Seller and Buyer, respectively.
(e) Determination by Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant will make a determination as soon as practicable within *** (***) days (or such other time as the Parties will agree in writing) after its engagement, and its resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment will be conclusive and binding upon the Parties.
(f) Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment will (A) be due (x) within *** (***) Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or, (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within *** (***) Business Days of the resolution thereof; and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as is directed by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be.
(g) Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Section 3.2 will be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
3.3 Allocation of Purchase Price. Seller and Buyer agree that the Purchase Price and those Assumed Liabilities that are due, owing and outstanding as of the Closing Time (plus other relevant items) will be allocated among the Purchased Assets for all purposes (including Tax and
Page 19 of 59
financial accounting) as shown on the final allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”). A draft of the Allocation Schedule will be prepared by Buyer and delivered to Seller within *** (***) days following the Closing Date. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing that Seller objects to one or more items reflected in the Allocation Schedule, Seller and Buyer will negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation Schedule within *** (***) days following the Closing Date, such dispute will be resolved by the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm will be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. Buyer and Seller will file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule. Any adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.2 or Article 7 will be allocated in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule.
3.4 Payment Method. On the Closing Date, Buyer will pay the Purchase Price to, or on behalf of, Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds denominated in U.S. dollars, into the accounts designated by Seller in writing not fewer than *** (***) Business Days before the Closing Date.
3.5 The Closing. The Transactions contemplated in this Agreement, including the execution of the Transaction Documents other than this Agreement (the “Closing”) will take place remotely on January 13, 2016 or any other date on which the Parties mutually agree (the “Closing Date”), it being understood that the Closing will be effective as of 00:01 a.m. on the Closing Date (the “Closing Time”). The Parties will cooperate in good faith to finalize and mutually agree on all Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement (including the other Transaction Documents, and the exhibits and schedules to those other Transaction Documents). and the finalized forms thereof will be attached to this Agreement at Closing.

For greater certainty, a Transferred Employee who incurred a claim in respect of short-term or long-term disability prior to the Closing Date or Transfer Date, as applicable, and who, as of the Closing Date or Transfer Date, as applicable, is entitled to benefits under the Seller’s short-term or long-term disability benefit plan, shall continue to be covered by and paid from the Seller Benefit Plans for the duration of such disability.
(j) Subject to Buyer’s reimbursement obligations in clause (l) below, the Seller Benefit Plans specified on Schedule 6.5(j) (the “Transition Period Benefit Plans”) shall retain responsibility for and satisfy obligations with respect to all benefit claims incurred by Transferred Employees prior to the Benefit Plans Transition Date (the “Covered Employees”) and their eligible spouses, beneficiaries and dependents, under the Transition Period Benefit Plans for the period commencing on and after the Closing Date and ending on *** (the “Benefit Plans Transition Date”), in each case, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Transition Period Benefit Plan, approval by the applicable Insurance Provider and the applicable insurance policies. For greater certainty, subject to Buyer’s reimbursement obligations in clause (l) below, a Covered Employee who incurred a claim under the Transition Period Benefit Plans in respect of short-term disability or long-term disability during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the Benefit Plans Transition Date shall be entitled to benefits under the Seller’s short-term disability, long-term disability and life insurance plans for the duration of such disability.
(k) The Buyer shall be responsible under the Buyer Benefit Plans for any and all benefit claims incurred by the Covered Employees (and their eligible spouses, beneficiaries and dependents) on and after the Benefit Plans Transition Date.
(l) The Parties agree that the Transition Period Benefit Plans shall continue to provide benefit coverage for the Covered Employees during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the Benefit Plans Transition Date, provided that the Buyer pays all related out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Seller, including the proportion of monthly premiums required by the Seller’s benefits and insurance providers (the “Insurance Providers”) that relate to the benefits provided to the Transferred Employees during the Transition Period (including all income Tax, payroll Tax and other similar amounts exigible thereon as required
Page 38 of 59
under applicable Law). The Parties understand and agree that the Insurance Providers will provide the Buyer with monthly premium invoices that will reflect monthly changes in insured volumes and headcount of Transferred Employees and premium taxes.
(m) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Quebec Employee who is on an approved leave of absence on the Benefit Plans Transition Date shall remain a participant in the Seller Benefit Plans that provide disability and life insurance benefits (as applicable) until such Quebec Employee returns to active employment with the Buyer, at which time he or she shall become a participant in the disability and life Buyer Benefit Plans (as applicable).
(n) For purposes of Section this 6.5, a claim for benefits will be deemed to have been incurred, whether or not reported:
(i) with respect to death or dismemberment, on the actual date of death or of dismemberment;
(ii) with respect to short-term and long-term disability, on the date the claimant became disabled as determined in accordance with the applicable plan;
(iii) with respect to all medical, dental or vision claims, on the date a service or supply giving rise to the claim under the applicable benefit plan is purchased or received by the claimant or his/her eligible dependent; and
(iv) where a claim includes more than one service or supply, the incurred date of the claim will be determined in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association (“CLHIA”) for such claims. Reimbursement will then be made by the applicable Employee Benefit Plan, based on the date on which the claim was incurred, and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable plan.
(o) Buyer and Seller intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any Transferred Employee who accepts an employment offer by Buyer that is consistent with the requirements of this Section 6.5, including for purposes of any Employee Benefit Plan that provides for separation, termination or severance benefits, and that each Transferred Employee will have continuous employment immediately before and immediately after the Closing Date.
(p) Subject to compliance with applicable Law, Seller and Buyer will reasonably cooperate in good faith, and Seller and the Buyer and their respective Affiliates will provide reasonable access to such information as is reasonably necessary or appropriate, to facilitate implementation of the provisions of this Section 6.5.
(q) This Section 6.5 will be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the Parties, and nothing in this Section 6.5, express or implied, will confer upon any other Person (including any Employees) any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 6.5. Nothing contained in this Agreement, express or implied, will be construed to establish, amend or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 6.5 will not create any right in any Employee or any other Person to any continued employment with Buyer or any of its Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever.

Page 42 of 59
constitute active solicitation for purposes of this Section 6.8. However, during the Non-Solicitation Period, Seller and its Affiliates shall not ***. |
(c) During the Non-Solicitation Period, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates will sell any Bulk SPECT Products manufactured, sold or distributed by or for any Person to any customers of the Seller’s Retained Business as of the Closing Date.

Page 44 of 59
Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (Buyer and such Persons are collectively hereinafter referred to as “Buyer’s Indemnified Persons”), harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage or deficiency, including interest, penalties, reasonable costs of preparation and investigation, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (individually a “Loss,” and collectively, “Losses”) that Buyer’s Indemnified Persons may suffer, sustain, incur or become subject to, to the extent arising out of or due to: (a) any inaccuracy, misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made or given by the Seller in Article 4 of this Agreement as of the Closing Date (or any other date specified in such representation or warranty); (b) from and after Closing, the breach of any covenant, undertaking, agreement or other obligation of Seller under this Agreement; (c) any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability (excluding, for such purposes, all assets and liabilities intended to be transferred or assumed as contemplated in Section 2.5); (d) in respect of any Employee who is not a Transferred Employee (except if Buyer breached its obligations in Section 6.5 with respect to such Employee); (e) the application of the “bulk-sale” or “bulk-transfer” Laws of any jurisdiction in Canada by creditors of Seller’s Retained Business with respect to the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement (for the sake of clarity, in each case, except to the extent the Loss arises from any failure of Buyer to fully satisfy the Assumed Liabilities); or (f) any failure by Seller to comply with section 6 of the Retail Sales Tax Act (Ontario) or any comparable Laws of any other jurisdiction in Canada in respect of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement.
7.2 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to all of the limitations set forth in this Article 7, from and after Closing (except with respect to clause (d), which shall apply from and after the Execution Date), Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller, its Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, controlling Persons, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (Seller and such Persons are hereinafter collectively referred to as “Seller’s Indemnified Persons”), harmless from and against any and all Losses that Seller’s Indemnified Persons may, suffer, sustain, incur or become subject to, to the extent arising out of, or due to: (a) any inaccuracy, misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made or given by the Seller in Article 5 of this Agreement as of the Closing Date (or any other date specified in such representation or warranty); (b) from and after Closing, the breach of any covenant, undertaking, agreement or other obligation of Buyer under this Agreement; (c) any Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability (including, for such purposes, all assets and Liabilities intended to be transferred or assumed as contemplated in Section 2.5), or Transferred Employee; (d) any matters (whether before or after the Closing Date) arising from or relating to the application or enforcement of, or claims brought under, antitrust/competition Laws or the Investment Canada Act (including the matters contemplated by Sections 6.1(a) and (b)), including the costs of defending the Transactions, costs associated with any Legal Proceeding (including investigations and inquiries, whether formal or informal), or Losses that Seller’s Indemnified Persons may suffer or incur arising in connection with any related Order; (e) Seller’s or Buyer’s performance of its respective obligations under Section 2.5 or under any Contract treated as an Assigned Contract pursuant to Section 2.5 or the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of any of the Assigned Contracts (including any treated as Assigned Contracts pursuant to Section 2.5) to the extent that any consent, authorization, approval or waiver described in Section 2.5 with respect to the applicable Assigned Contract has not been obtained at Closing (except to the extent Seller has breached its obligations to disclose in the
Page 45 of 59
Schedules the requirement to obtain any such consent, authorization, approval or waiver and Seller incurs actual economic harm as a result of not obtaining consent under that applicable Assigned Contract or the Seller has failed to comply with its covenants in Section 2.5, 6.2 or 6.3 with respect to such consent, authorization, approval or waiver); or (f) any of the Agreements specified in Schedule 7.2(f), in each case only to the extent such Losses relate to the period from and after the Closing Date.
7.3 Survival of Representations and Warranties; Limitations.
(a) The representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement will survive the Closing Date and will remain in full force and effect thereafter for a period of *** (***) months and will be effective with respect to any claimed breach of the representations and warranties timely made pursuant to Section 7.4, after which period the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1 (Organization and Corporate Power), Section 4.2 (Due Authorization), Section 4.3(a)(iii) (No Violation; Consents), Section 4.9 (Good and Valid Title), Section 4.16 (Tax Matters), Section 4.17 (Broker’s Fees), Section 5.1 (Organization and Corporate Power), Section 5.2 (Due Authorization), 5.3(a)(iii) (No Violation; Consents) and Section 5.8 (Broker’s Fees) will survive indefinitely (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”); provided that Section 4.16 (Tax Matters) will survive only until the applicable statute of limitations has run.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Indemnified Person will be entitled to any recovery from an Indemnifying Party with respect to any breach of such representations and warranties unless and until the amount of such Losses suffered, sustained or incurred by the asserting Party, or to which such Party becomes subject, by reason of such breach, will exceed One Hundred and Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US$110,000) calculated on a cumulative basis and not a per item basis (the “Basket Amount”) and, in such event, the indemnifying party will be required to pay the full amount of such Losses including the Basket Amount. In no event will either Party be liable to the other Party under this Agreement in an aggregate amount in excess of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000), or in the case of a breach of Section 6.8 by the Seller or its Affiliates, Four Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,500,000) (in each case, the “Cap”), except that the Basket Amount and the Cap will not be applicable to (i) any breach of any Fundamental Representations, (ii) Losses indemnifiable under any of Sections 7.1(b)-(f) or 7.2(b)-(f) or (iii) Losses based on fraud of the Indemnifying Party; provided that, except in the case of Losses based on fraud of the Indemnifying Party, in no event will either Party be liable to the other Party under this Agreement in an aggregate amount in excess of Nine Million Dollars ($9,000,000). For purposes of determining the amount of any Losses under this Article 7, each representation and warranty will be read without reference to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualification contained therein (but for the avoidance of doubt, a materiality or a Material Adverse Effect qualification will be used for determining whether a breach occurred and for determining whether a material item was explicitly required to be listed or disclosed in a Schedule).
(c) Seller will not be required to indemnify any Buyer’s Indemnified Persons, and Buyer will not be required to indemnify any Seller’s Indemnified Persons, to the extent of any Losses that any court of competent jurisdiction will have determined by final judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Buyer’s Indemnified Persons or Seller’s Indemnified Persons, respectively.
Page 46 of 59
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement will give rise to any right on the part of Party or any Indemnified Person, after the consummation of the Transactions, to rescind this Agreement or any of the Transactions.
(e) Any liability for indemnification under this Article 7 will be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, neither Seller nor Buyer will in any event be liable to the other Party or any of the other Party’s Indemnified Persons on account of any indemnity obligation set forth in this Article 7 for any special, incidental, treble or punitive damages, in each case, unless such Losses are paid pursuant to a third party claim.
7.4 Indemnification Procedure.
(a) A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by notice issued in accordance with Section 10.3 to the Party from whom indemnification is sought. The failure by any Indemnified Person so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Person with respect to any such claim, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result of such failure, it being understood that notices in respect of a breach of a representation or warranty must be delivered prior to the expiration of the survival period for such representation or warranty. In the event the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Person within *** (***) days following its receipt of such Notice of Claim that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Person under this Article 7 or the amount thereof, the claim specified by the Indemnified Person in such notice will be conclusively deemed a Loss of the Indemnifying Party under this Article 7, and the Indemnifying Party will pay the amount of the Losses relating to such claim to the Indemnified Person on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of Losses related to such the claim (or any portion of the claim) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion of such claim) becomes finally determined. In the event the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim as provided above, as promptly as reasonably practicable, such Indemnified Person and the appropriate Indemnifying Party will establish the merits and amount of such claim (by mutual agreement, arbitration or otherwise) and, within *** (***) Business Days following the final determination of the merits and amount of the Losses related to such claim, where applicable, the Indemnifying Party will pay to the Indemnified Person immediately available funds in an amount equal to the Losses related to such claim as determined hereunder.
(b) In the event that any Legal Proceeding is instituted, or that any claim is asserted, by any third party in respect of which payment may be sought under Article 7 (regardless of the limitations set forth in Section 7.3) (an “Indemnification Claim”), the
Page 47 of 59
Indemnified Person will promptly cause written notice of the assertion of any Indemnification Claim of which it has knowledge that is covered by this indemnity to be forwarded to the Party against whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”). The failure of the Indemnified Person to give reasonably prompt notice of any Indemnification Claim will not release, waive or otherwise affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligations with respect thereto, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnifying Party will have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with, any Indemnification Claim that relates to any Losses indemnified by it under this Agreement. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim that relates to any Losses indemnified by it under this Agreement, it will, within thirty (30) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Indemnification Claim so requires), notify the Indemnified Person of its intent to do so. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with, any Indemnification Claim that relates to any Losses indemnified by it under this Agreement, the Indemnified Person may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with, such Indemnification Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Person may participate, at his or its own expense, in the defense of such Indemnification Claim; provided, however, that such Indemnified Person will be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if (i) so requested by the Indemnifying Party to participate, (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Person, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable or (iii) the Indemnifying Person fails to prosecute such defense actively and diligently; and provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party will not be required to pay for more than one such counsel (plus any appropriate local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons in connection with any Indemnification Claim. The Parties agree to cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Indemnification Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.4 to the contrary, neither the Indemnifying Party nor any Indemnified Person will, without the written consent of the other Party, settle or compromise any Indemnification Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment. If the Indemnifying Party makes any payment on any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnifying Party will be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Persons to any insurance benefits or other claims of the Indemnified Person with respect to such Indemnification Claim for payment thereof.
(c) After any final decision, judgment or award will have been rendered by a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement will have been consummated, or the Indemnified Persons and the Indemnifying Party will have arrived at a mutually binding agreement with respect to an Indemnification Claim under this Agreement, the Indemnified Persons will forward to the Indemnifying Party notice of any sums due and owing by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter.
7.5 Character of Payments. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parties agree that any indemnification payments (and/or payments or adjustments) made with respect to this Agreement will be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.
Page 48 of 59
7.6 Calculation of Losses. The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article 7 will be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Person under insurance policies with respect to such Losses (net of any Tax or expenses incurred in connection with such recovery). Each Indemnified Person will take, and will cause its Affiliates to take, all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate and otherwise minimize the Losses to the maximum extent reasonably possible upon, and after becoming aware of, any event which would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses. Each Indemnified Person will use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance coverage, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible, for any Losses to the same extent that such Indemnified Person would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification under this Agreement.
7.7 Tax Benefits. The obligation of indemnification will be reduced to the extent the Indemnified Person is entitled to any Tax benefits, including the reduction of any income Tax by reason of the Losses being claimed as a deduction or reduction of the income Tax payable after taking into account any Tax consequences arising as a result of the receipt of the indemnification payment.
7.8 Minimize Tax. If an indemnity payment would otherwise be included in the Indemnified Person’s income, the Indemnified Person covenants and agrees to make all such elections and take such actions as are available, acting reasonably, to minimize or eliminate Taxes with respect to the indemnity payment.
7.9 Appeal.

Buyer will file such elections in the manner and within the time prescribed by the ETA and the QSTA. Buyer will, at all times, indemnify and hold harmless Seller, its directors, officers, and employees against and in respect of any and all amounts, including interest and penalties, assessed by a Governmental Authority as a consequence of such Governmental Authority determining, for any reason, that an election contemplated in this Section 8.3 is inapplicable, invalid, or not properly made, as well as all legal and professional fees incurred by Seller, its directors, officers, and employees as a consequence of, or in relation to, any such assessment.

(c) Buyer and Seller will each execute and file a joint election under section 22 of the Tax Act and the corresponding provisions of any applicable provincial taxing statute or regulation, within the prescribed time periods, in respect of the accounts receivable to which such election may apply and will designate in such election an amount equal to the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such accounts receivable as the consideration of and by Buyer therefor.

(a) Each of the Parties (the “Receiving Party”) acknowledges its possession of Confidential Information (as defined below) of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”). From and after the Closing Date, the Receiving Party will not, and will cause its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, disclose, reveal, divulge or communicate the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to any third Person other than the Receiving Party’s Representatives.

(c) For the sake of clarity, nothing in this Agreement will impose any obligation on Seller as the Receiving Party and its Representatives with respect to their disclosure for Seller’s own legitimate business or other purposes of information, data, material or documents that pertains (but does not exclusively pertain) to the Radiopharmacy Business, the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.
9.2 Disclosure Required by Law. If the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives is required by any Governmental Authority (whether by oral question, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) or

pursuant to applicable Law to disclose or provide any Confidential Information, the Receiving Party and its Representatives will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide (if not prohibited by such applicable Law or Governmental Authority) the Disclosing Party with written notice of such request or demand as promptly as practicable under the circumstances so that the Disclosing Party will have an opportunity to seek an appropriate protective Order. The Receiving Party agrees to take, and cause its Representatives to take, at the Disclosing Party’s expense, all other commercially reasonable steps necessary to obtain confidential treatment. Subject to the foregoing, the Receiving Party and its Representatives may thereafter disclose or provide any such Confidential Information, as the case may be, to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by counsel) or such Governmental Authority.

The Parties will reasonably cooperate, each at its own expense, in such disclosure, filing or registration, including such confidential treatment request, and will execute all documents reasonably required in connection therewith.
9.4 Permitted Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 9, the approval by the other Party will be unnecessary if such disclosure is necessary, as in the reasonable opinion of the Disclosing Party’s counsel, in order to implement the provisions of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 2
GENERAL TERMS OF PURCHASES AND SALES
2.1. | Purchase and Sale of Products. All purchases of Products by Isologic from LMIC during the Term will be governed by, and will be subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement. LMIC will use commercially reasonable efforts to produce and sell to Isologic the sizes and quantities of Products as requested by Isologic, taking into account LMIC’s manufacturing capacity and availability of supply and subject to Section 8.5; provided that, if LMIC is unable, for any reason, to fill any size of a Product specified in a purchase order on any given day, then LMIC will be entitled to make reasonable size substitutions (e.g., by providing two (2) 2.500 xxxxx TechneLite® generators or one (1) 6.000 xxxxx TechneLite® generator in fulfillment of a purchase order for one (1) 5.000 xxxxx TechneLite® generator). In no event will Isologic re-sell, transfer, give or otherwise supply any Products supplied by LMIC, or any other bulk radiopharmaceuticals (not including bulk unit dose preparations) that compete with Products supplied by LMIC as of the date of this Agreement, to any third party without LMIC’s prior written approval, other than as contemplated by this Agreement for unit dose preparations (including bulk unit dose preparations) and other than certain third party cold kits to certain unit dose customers (as contemplated by the definition of the term “Radiopharmacy Business” in the APA), in each case by Isologic Radiopharmacies. |
2.2. | Purchase Price and Late Delivery Discounts. |
(a) | The purchase price to be invoiced to, and paid by, Isologic for any Products will be the purchase price set forth on the Product Schedule corresponding to that Product; provided, however, that each calendar year (commencing in calendar year 2017) LMIC will be entitled to increase the purchase price of any or all Products by up to *** percent (***%) of the previous year’s purchase price, effective upon *** (***) days’ prior written notice. In addition, if at any time during the Term LMIC’s and its Affiliates’ molybdenum-99 costs exceed Expected Moly Costs (as defined below) by ** percent (***%) or more, in the |
Page 6 of 27
aggregate, and such increase is sustained for at least a *** (***) day period, then ***, provided that any increase in pricing pursuant to the foregoing shall only be effective upon *** (***) days’ prior written notice (and provided further that Isologic may request that an independent auditor (which would enter into a confidentiality agreement in the form reasonably required by, and in favor of, LMIC) confirm the calculations thereof, without divulging any specific figures to Isologic). The term “Expected Moly Costs” means ***. |
For purposes of illustration, if:
(i) | If the date of this Agreement was January 1, 2016 and Expected Moly Costs on that date are $***/xxxxx, |
(ii) | Expected Moly Costs on January 1, 2017 are $***/xxxxx (as a result of ***, as described above); and |
(iii) | LMIC and its Affiliates incur a cost increase such that molybdenum-99 costs on May 1, 2017 are $***/per xxxxx, |
then *** of that $***/xxxxx molybdenum-99 cost increase from January 1, 2017 to May 1, 2017 would be passed through under this Section 2.2(a) (because the $*** cost increase is less than **% of then-applicable Expected Moly Costs of $***/xxxxx).
If, however, molybdenum-99 costs are further increased to $***/xxxxx on June 1, 2017 and that increase is sustained for at least sixty (60) days, then $***/xxxxx of the aggregate molybdenum-99 cost increase (calculated as follows: ***) would be passed through under this Agreement, starting on July 31, 2017 (i.e., the sixtieth day of the molybdenum-99 cost increase period, assuming notice thereof was delivered to Isologic on June 1, 2017).
(b) | In the event that delivery of any Hot Product is delayed past the agreed upon local delivery time (as specified by the Isologic Radiopharmacy and accepted by LMIC) and that delay results in an actual, negative impact on the ordering Isologic Radiopharmacy’s first production run for which that Product was intended to be used, then, (i) in the case of Generators, LMIC will reduce the price Isologic pays for that Product by *** and, (ii) in the case of other Hot Products, LMIC will reduce the price Isologic pays for that Product by ***; provided, in each case, that the foregoing will not apply to delays caused by any Force Majeure Event, for which there will be no price reduction. |
2.3. | Cessation of Sale of any Product or Size; New Product Sizes. LMIC reserves the right to modify the Product Schedule at any time during the Term, upon at least *** (***) days’ prior written notice to Isologic, to reflect that it has (a) ceased to manufacture or sell any Product or (b) introduced any new size of Product (and to establish the initial purchase price for that new size, provided that the introduction of new sizes of Product and the pricing thereof shall not be implemented in a manner so as to circumvent the pricing for Products set forth in this Agreement) or it has discontinued any size of Product. |
Page 7 of 27
ARTICLE 3
MINIMUM PURCHASE OBLIGATIONS
3.1. | Minimum Purchase Obligation. Throughout the Term, Isologic guarantees to purchase from LMIC at least the following quantities of Products (each of clauses (a) through (e) individually, a Product’s applicable “Minimum Purchase Requirement” and, collectively, the “Minimum Purchase Requirements”): |
(a) | *** percent (***%) of the Isologic Radiopharmacies’ total requirements of Generators (measured in curies purchased, regardless of size); |
(b) | *** percent (***%) of the Isologic Radiopharmacies’ total requirements of Thallium (measured in millicuries purchased, regardless of size); |
(c) | *** percent (***%) of the Isologic Radiopharmacies’ total requirements of Gallium (measured in millicuries purchased, regardless of size); |
(d) | All of the Third Party Products in LMIC’s inventory as of the Effective Date in the quantities set forth in the Product Schedule. |
Throughout the Term, Isologic agrees that ***.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Isologic will not be deemed to be in breach of Section 3.1(a) to the extent that the specific quantities of product required to be purchased by Isologic under its Conflicting Agreement causes it to fail to meet its Minimum Purchase Requirements for the analogous Product in any Measurement Period through the ***. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) the full amount of the Minimum Purchase Commitments for all other Products for all Measurement Periods will apply at all times throughout the Term and (2) the full amount of the Minimum Purchase Commitments for such analogous Product for all Measurement Periods commencing in the *** will apply at all times throughout the Term.
3.2. | Treatment of Undelivered Products. |
(a) | In the event that Isologic places a purchase order for any Product that LMIC is unable, for any reason (including a Force Majeure Event), to deliver to Isologic, then that undelivered Product (to the extent representing normal quantities ordered in the ordinary course of Isologic’s business) will be treated as having been purchased by Isologic for purposes of determining whether Isologic has satisfied the relevant Minimum Purchase Requirement (and, for the avoidance of doubt, Isologic shall not be required to pay any amount in respect of such Product), and Isologic shall also receive an invoice credit for the original purchase price of such undelivered Product (to the extent it was actually paid) against future purchases under this Agreement. |
Page 8 of 27
(b) | In addition, to the extent that LMIC is unable to supply the quantities of Product requested by Isologic in a purchase order under this Agreement for any reason (including a Force Majeure Event), Isologic will have the right to purchase that Product from an alternate supplier for the period of that unavailability (and, for the duration of that period of unavailability, Isologic will not be in violation of its purchase obligations relating to the Minimum Purchase Requirements). |
(c) | To the extent that LMIC is unable, for any reason (including a Force Majeure Event), to supply on any given day all quantities of a Product ordered by Isologic pursuant to a firm purchase order under this Agreement and by all of LMIC’s other customers in the Territory pursuant to firm purchase orders, LMIC shall ***. |
3.3. | Compliance; Reporting; Shortfall Payments. |
(a) | Compliance with the Minimum Purchase Requirement for each Product will be determined for each calendar quarter during the Term (each, a “Measurement Period”). Not later than *** (***) days after the end of each Measurement Period, Isologic will provide to LMIC (A) a timely and accurate written report in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B that sets forth the Isologic Radiopharmacies’ total requirements for curies, millicuries, doses or vials, as applicable, of each Product for that Measurement Period, (B) reasonable, true and accurate documentation supporting that report and (C) a written certification by an executive officer that Isologic has complied (or failed to comply) with all of its Minimum Purchase Requirements for that Measurement Period. Any disputes over the figures reflected in that report will be resolved by the Parties in good faith. |
(b) | In the event that Isologic fails to satisfy the Minimum Purchase Requirement for any Product during any Measurement Period, Isologic will: |
(i) | with respect to any Hot Products, make the required Shortfall Payment for that Hot Product to LMIC on or before the last business day of the calendar month immediately following the end of that Measurement Period; and |
(ii) | with respect to any Cold Kit Products, |
(1) | order the shortfall quantity of that Product (i.e., reflecting the portion of the Minimum Purchase Requirement for that Product for which Isologic failed to place firm purchase orders for delivery within that Measurement Period) in the immediately following Measurement Period (the “Remediation Period”), in addition to complying with its Minimum Purchase Requirement for that Product for that Remediation Period (for the sake of clarity, purchases during a Remediation Period will be applied first towards the Minimum Purchase Requirement for that Remediation Period and then second towards the shortfall from the immediately preceding Measurement Period); and |
(2) | if Isologic fails to purchase any portion of that shortfall quantity during that Remediation Period, then make the required Shortfall Payment for that Product to LMIC on or before the last business day of the calendar month immediately following the end of that Remediation Period. |
Page 9 of 27
With respect to any Product during a Measurement Period, “Shortfall Payment” means a cash payment required to be made by Isologic to LMIC for (x) the quantity of that Product (quantified in curies in the case of Generators) reflecting the portion of the Minimum Purchase Requirement for that Product for which Isologic failed to place firm purchase orders for delivery within that Measurement Period (or, for Cold Kits, that Remediation Period), (y) priced at, (1) in the case of Generators, *** or, (2) in the case of other Products, ***. Upon receipt of any Shortfall Payment for a Product with respect to a Measurement Period, Isologic will be deemed to have met the Minimum Purchase Requirement for that Product during that Measurement Period.
ARTICLE 4
PURCHASE AND SALE OF PRODUCTS;
ACCEPTANCE AND REJECTION OF PRODUCTS
4.1. | Purchase Orders. |
(a) | For LMIC’s smooth inventory and order management and so as to minimize the size and frequency of any shortfalls in meeting its Minimum Purchase Requirements, Isologic will (i) establish *** recurring standing orders for Hot Products in the volumes necessary to satisfy its Minimum Purchase Requirement with respect to Hot Products for each calendar quarter and (ii) place *** orders for Cold Kits in the volumes necessary to satisfy its Minimum Purchase Requirement with respect to Cold Kits for each calendar quarter. Isologic will also place a purchase order for all of the Third Party Products in LMIC’s inventory as of the Effective Date in the quantities set forth in the Product Schedule in ***. |
(b) | Isologic will place orders for Products under this Agreement in written, electronic or verbal form which will specify: (i) the quantity of each Product being ordered, (ii) the requested shipping date and (iii) the shipping destination (which must be a licensed Isologic Radiopharmacy). All orders are subject to (1) LMIC’s customary ordering requirements and lead times as in effect from time to time, (2) LMIC’s reasonable discretion to determine the method of shipment and (3) acceptance by LMIC, which will not be unreasonably withheld. The terms of this Agreement will prevail over any inconsistent terms in any purchase order, acknowledgment or invoice, and no additional terms other than those set forth in this Agreement or allowed pursuant to the terms of Section 2.1 (size substitutions) and this Section 4.1(b) in a purchase order, acknowledgement or invoice will be binding on either Party. |
Page 10 of 27
4.2. | Shipments. The risk of loss, delay (as and to the extent contemplated by Section 2.2) or damage in transit will remain with LMIC until delivery to the applicable Isologic Radiopharmacy. LMIC will prepay all shipping and insurance costs and will invoice Isologic for the actual costs and expenses incurred, plus *** percent (***%) of such shipping and insurance costs. LMIC agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to utilize the most cost efficient forms of shipping available that meet the requirements of the Parties and applicable Laws. |
4.3. | Invoicing and Payment Terms. LMIC will provide an invoice to Isologic with each shipment for the Products then delivered. All payments will be due and payable on a net *** (***) day basis. All payments will be made in *** by wire transfer as designated by LMIC, or by such other method as LMIC will notify Isologic from time to time. Interest will be payable on all amounts not paid as of *** days after the due date at a yearly rate of *** percent (***%) (or, if lower, the maximum interest rate permitted by Law) and will accrue from *** days after the due date until that sum is paid. LMIC shall ensure that each invoice submitted to Isologic under this Agreement shall separately set out all Sales Taxes imposed on Isologic, including any GST/HST payable by Isologic under this Agreement, and all prescribed information under the Excise Tax Act (Canada) (or any other applicable provincial tax legislation) required to claim all available refunds or credits of any Sales Taxes. |
4.4. | Taxes. Isologic will be responsible for and shall pay any applicable Sales Taxes charged on the sale of each Product sold pursuant to this Agreement or on any amounts payable to LMIC under this Agreement. LMIC shall reasonably cooperate with the reasonable requests of Isologic in any efforts by Isologic to obtain exemption from, or to minimize, any Sales Taxes for which Isologic is liable under this Agreement. |
4.5. | Set Off. Isologic will perform its obligations under this Agreement without setoff, deduction, recoupment or withholding of any kind for amounts owed or payable by LMIC, whether under this Agreement, the APA (or any transaction agreement referenced in the APA), applicable Law or otherwise and whether relating to LMIC’s breach, insolvency or otherwise, in each case, unless such amounts owed or payable are definitively resolved by mutual written agreement or by a final and binding court or arbitration decision. Without limiting the foregoing, Isologic shall be entitled to deduct and set off from any amounts due and owing to LMIC under this Agreement any amounts owed by LMIC to Isologic pursuant to Article 7 of the APA that have been definitively resolved by mutual written agreement or by a final and binding court or arbitration decision. |
4.6. | Product Warranties. Each Product supplied to Isologic pursuant to this Agreement will, at the time of delivery, (a) be free from defects in material and workmanship; (b) conform to LMIC’s specifications for that Product (as set forth in the applicable regulatory approval) as in effect from time to time; (c) comply with all applicable Laws relating to the production, storage, packaging, labeling, shipping and delivery of that Product; and (d) be produced in accordance with applicable cGMPs (clauses (a) through (d), collectively, the applicable “Specifications”). |
Page 11 of 27
4.7. | Non-Conforming Product. Isologic may reject a shipment of any Product only if that Product fails to conform to (a) the type and quantity of Products ordered by Isologic in its purchase order (other than because of a size substitution permitted under Section 2.1) or (b) the applicable Specifications; provided that, in each case, Isologic notifies LMIC by telephone (or any other method agreed to by the Parties from time to time) of any such rejection within *** (***) days (for Hot Products) or *** (***) days (for Cold Kits) after receipt by Isologic of that shipment of Products; provided that, in the case of Latent Defects, such *** (***) or *** (***) day period will commence only upon discovery of such Latent Defects by Isologic or Isologic’s customers. Isologic’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any non-conforming Products will be (in each case, only to the extent such non-conforming Products were actually paid for) to receive, at Isologic’s option, either (i) replacement quantities for those non-conforming Products, which replacement quantities shall be for no additional consideration, or (ii) an invoice credit for the original purchase price of those non-conforming Products against future purchases under this Agreement; however, nothing in this sentence restricts non-conforming Products from being taken into account in determining whether a material breach of this Agreement has occurred for the purposes of Section 6.2(a) of this Agreement. |
4.8. | Product Recalls. In the event that LMIC determines that a recall or withdrawal of the Products from the market is necessary, Isologic will take all actions appropriate in order to reasonably assist LMIC with that recall or withdrawal. The costs of the recall (including all costs of collecting, shipping and disposing of the recalled Product) will be borne by LMIC, unless the circumstances leading to the recall result from the negligence or fault of any of the Isologic Parties. |

Page 13 of 27
5.2. | FCPA and Anti-Bribery Law Compliance. |
(a) | General. Each Party acknowledges that it intends to comply with all Laws governing its business and to conduct its activities with integrity. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that it is subject to LMIC’s Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and Anti-Bribery Compliance Policy attached as Exhibit C; provided that Isologic shall not be bound by any amendments, modifications or supplements to such policy unless reasonable prior written notice of such amendment, modification or supplement is given to Isologic. |
(b) | Anti-Bribery Laws. Each of LMIC and Isologic and their respective Affiliates and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, shareholders and agents (the foregoing, with respect to each Party, collectively, its “FCPA Parties”) have complied, and will comply, with the terms of all applicable Laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”) and laws of other nations that generally prohibit the payment of bribes, kickbacks and other improper payments (collectively, “Anti-Bribery Laws”). Isologic and LMIC each acknowledge that the FCPA, in particular, makes it unlawful to offer, pay, promise, or authorize to pay any money, gift or anything of value (including bribes, entertainment, kickbacks or any benefit), directly or indirectly, (i) to any foreign official or any foreign political party or (ii) to any person while knowing or suspecting that the payment or gift will be passed on to a foreign official, in connection with any business activity of the company. Isologic and LMIC each acknowledge that a “foreign official” generally means any employee or officer of a government of a foreign country (i.e., a country other than the United States of America), including any federal, regional or local department, agency or enterprise owned or controlled by the foreign government, any official of a foreign political party, any official or employee of a public international organization, any person acting in an official capacity for, or on behalf of, such entities, and any candidate for foreign political office. |
(c) | Isologic Compliance-Related Representations and Warranties. Each of Isologic and LMIC (on behalf of itself and its respective FCPA Parties) makes the following representations and warranties to the other Party, and covenants and agrees as follows: |
(i) | It and its FCPA Parties have not, and will not, in connection with this Agreement or in connection with any other business transactions involving the other Party, make, promise, or offer to make any payment or transfer of anything of value, directly or indirectly, that has the purpose or effect of public or commercial bribery, or acceptance of or acquiescence in extortion, kickbacks, or other unlawful or improper means of obtaining business. This does not, however, prohibit normal and customary business entertainment or the giving of business mementos of nominal value in |
Page 14 of 27
connection with its or its FCPA Parties’ performance under this Agreement, provided the entertainment or giving of the memento is otherwise legal under local law and does not violate or exceed the rules, code of conduct, or other ethical standards set by LMIC or Isologic or by the recipient’s own agency, company or organization. |
(ii) | At any time reasonably requested by a Party and upon reasonable prior notice, but no more than once per year, the other Party shall provide a compliance certification as to its compliance with this Section 5.2 (which shall be in such reasonable form as the requesting party and/or its Affiliates use for their analogous contractual counterparties at that time). |
(iii) | If it or any of its respective FCPA Parties learns or has reason to know of: (i) any payment, offer or agreement to make a payment to a foreign official or political party for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or securing any improper advantage for it or the other Party under this Agreement or otherwise, or (ii) any other development during the Term that in any way makes inaccurate or incomplete its and its respective FCPA Parties’ anti-bribery-related representations, warranties or certifications at any time during the Term, then it or its respective FCPA Parties, as applicable, will promptly advise the other Party in writing of the information giving rise to its or its respective FCPA Parties’ knowledge or suspicion that a violation may have occurred. |
(d) | Termination Rights. If a Party believes, in good faith, that the other Party or any of its FCPA Parties has acted in any way that may subject the first-mentioned Party or any of its directors, officers or Affiliates to liability under the FCPA or any other Anti-Bribery Laws, or has otherwise failed to comply with the terms of Section 5.2, then the first-mentioned Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party. |
(e) | Disclosure. Isologic and LMIC each agrees (on behalf of itself and its respective FCPA Parties) that the other Party may make full disclosure of information relating to any possible violation of the FCPA, any Anti-Bribery Laws, or related offenses to the U.S. government and its agencies, the appropriate foreign government and its agencies, and to any other person or entity that such other Party determines has a legitimate need to know. |
5.3. | Isologic’s Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Isologic represents, warrants and covenants to LMIC that, as of the Effective Date and throughout the Term: |
(a) | Isologic will not give or make any guarantees, warranties or representations as to the condition, quality, durability, performance, merchantability or fitness for a particular use or purpose or any other feature of any Product or other than or different from those provided by LMIC under this Agreement (any such other guarantee, warranty or condition, whether express or implied, made by Isologic to its customers will be and remain the sole responsibility of Isologic and will not impose any obligation on LMIC). |
(b) | It will not sell or distribute any expired Product. |
Page 15 of 27
5.4. | Disclaimer of All Other Representations and Warranties. THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE THE ONLY REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ARE MADE EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ALL OF WHICH ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT OR OTHERWISE. |
5.5. | LMIC Audit Rights. During the Term of this Agreement, upon reasonable prior written notice, LMIC may request that it or its Representatives (in the case of clause (i) below) or an independent auditor (having a nationally-recognized reputation and level of expertise, and which would enter into a confidentiality agreement in the form reasonably required by, and in favor of, Isologic) (in the case of clause (ii) below), to inspect Isologic’s facilities and records and to confer with Isologic’s employees and independent contractors, in each case, in a commercially reasonable manner, during normal business hours, in compliance with Section 5.7, and only to the extent reasonably necessary for purposes of conducting compliance inspections regarding (i) regulatory and quality matters in respect of the Products and (ii) confirming and ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the reports delivered by Isologic under Section 3.3(a) (and the information supporting such reports), in the case of this clause (ii), without any specific figures being divulged to LMIC. Inspections in respect of regulatory and quality matters may only be requested and conducted to the extent required by LMIC’s regulatory or quality requirements and internal policies or under applicable Law, or in the event that LMIC has a reasonable basis for suspecting that Isologic’s business is not being conducted in compliance with applicable Law or regulatory or quality requirements in respect of the Products. All inspections shall be conducted at LMIC’s cost and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Isologic’s normal business operations and may be conducted no more than *** per year (or more frequently, to the extent required for purposes of confirming the completion and effectiveness of any material remediation measures). |
5.6. | Adverse Event Reporting. Isologic and LMIC agree to comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Safety Information Exchange Agreement that is being executed and delivered simultaneously with this Agreement and attached as Exhibit D (the “SIEA”). The SIEA is incorporated by reference into the terms of this Agreement. |
5.7. | Confidentiality. |
(a) | All Confidential Information disclosed by or on behalf of a Party (the “Disclosing Party”) and received by the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) will be held in strict confidence by the Receiving Party and its relevant Representatives. From |
Page 16 of 27
and after the Effective Date of this Agreement, except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, the Receiving Party will not, and will cause its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, disclose, reveal, divulge or communicate the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to any third party other than Representatives of the Receiving Party or of its Affiliates who reasonably need to know that Confidential Information in the performance of Isologic’s responsibilities under this Agreement and who are obligated or directed to maintain the confidentiality of that Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will not use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than in connection with exercising its rights and fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement or to the extent required for financial reporting, legal or regulatory compliance purposes. The Receiving Party and its Representatives will use the same degree of care to prevent and restrain the unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party as they currently use for their own confidential information of a like nature, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. |
(b) | The foregoing confidentiality obligations will not apply to Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed by a court or tribunal, legal process, applicable Law or the rules of any applicable stock exchange, in which case the Receiving Party or its applicable Representatives will promptly notify (in advance of such disclosure, if legally permitted) the Disclosing Party, so that the Disclosing Party can seek (at its own cost) a protective order to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information to be disclosed. In any such case, the Receiving Party or its Representative will disclose only the minimum Confidential Information that its legal counsel advises it is legally required to disclose. |
(c) | Each Party agrees that, should the foregoing confidentiality or use obligations be breached, money damages may be inadequate to remedy such a breach, and the other Party will be entitled to seek, and a court of competent jurisdiction may grant, specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach. That remedy will be in addition to all other remedies, including money damages, available to a non-breaching Party at law or in equity. |
(d) | The obligations under this Section 5.7 will survive *** (***) years following the Term. |
5.8. | Publicity. Neither Party will make any press release or other public disclosure regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that mentions or identifies the other Party without the other Party’s prior written consent, except as required by a Governmental Authority and applicable Law, in which case the Party required to make the press release or public disclosure will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the approval of the other Party as to the form, nature and extent of the press release or public disclosure prior to issuing the press release or making the public disclosure. |
Page 17 of 27
5.9. | Obligation to Terminate, and Refrain From Enter Into, Conflicting Agreements. Isologic has disclosed on Schedule 5.1 the existence and material terms of the only of its contracts and other arrangements that conflicts or is inconsistent with the purchase commitments and other obligations set forth in this Agreement (“Conflicting Agreement”). Isologic agrees ***. Isologic ****. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5.9 affects or otherwise denigrates any of Isologic’s representations and warranties in this Agreement, including Section 5.1, or its obligations under this Agreement, including its Minimum Purchase Requirements (as modified by the last paragraph of Section 3.1). |
ARTICLE 6
TERM AND TERMINATION
6.1. | Term. Unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing, this Agreement will terminate on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date or on any earlier date on which it is terminated pursuant to its terms (the “Initial Term”). Subject to Isologic’s and LMIC’s compliance in all material respects with all of their respective obligations under this Agreement during the Term (including those described in Article 3), this Agreement will automatically renew for additional consecutive one (1) year renewal terms, unless either Party provides a written notice of non-renewal to the other Party at least *** (***) days in advance of the expiration of the Initial Term or any then-current renewal term, as the case may be. The foregoing renewal terms, if any, and the Initial Term are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Term.” |
6.2. | Termination. In addition to the other provisions expressly providing rights to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated as follows: |
(a) | In the event that any Party materially breaches any of the provisions of this Agreement (including SIEA), the other Party will have the right to terminate this Agreement upon *** (***) days’ (or, in the case of nonpayment, *** (***) days’) prior written notice, unless that material breach is cured during that *** (***) day (or *** (***) day) period, in which event this Agreement will continue in full force and effect. |
(b) | If any Party institutes for its protection or is made a defendant in any proceeding under bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or receivership Law, or that Party is placed in receivership or makes an assignment for benefit of creditors, then the other Party may terminate this Agreement immediately by written notice to the first Party. |
(c) | In the event that LMIC or its Affiliates fails to comply with a final decision or order of an arbitrator or Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction in respect of a breach by LMIC or its Affiliates of section 6.8 of the APA (as determined by an arbitrator or Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction), Isologic will have the right to terminate this Agreement upon *** (***) days’ prior written notice, unless that failure to comply is cured during that *** (***) day period, in which event this Agreement will continue in full force and effect. |
Page 18 of 27
6.3. | Consequences of Termination or Expiration. Termination or expiration of this Agreement will be without prejudice to any rights or remedies that have accrued to the benefit of any Party prior to that termination. Without limiting the foregoing, termination or expiration of this Agreement will not terminate Isologic’s obligation to pay all invoices for Product shipped during the Term. Termination or expiration of this Agreement will not relieve any Party from its obligations that are expressly indicated to survive the termination of this Agreement. Sections 3.3, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 5.3, 5.4, 5.6, 5.7 and 5.8 and Articles 1, 6, 7 (except for Section 7.5) and 8 will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. |
ARTICLE 7
INDEMNIFICATION; LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY
7.1. | Indemnification by Isologic. Isologic will indemnify and hold harmless LMIC, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, “LMIC Related Persons”) from and against any suits, claims, losses, demands, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and reasonable investigative costs) (collectively, “Liabilities”), whether asserted by any LMIC Related Party or third party, to the extent arising out of or resulting from or in connection with (a) any breach of this Agreement by Isologic (including its Minimum Purchase Requirements) or (b) any negligence or willful misconduct by Isologic, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, “Isologic Related Persons”), in each case, except to the extent that any of the foregoing arises out of or results from the breach of this Agreement by LMIC or the negligence or willful misconduct of any of the LMIC Related Persons. |
7.2. | Indemnification by LMIC. LMIC will indemnify and hold harmless Isologic Related Persons from and against all Liabilities, whether asserted by any Isologic Related Party or third party, to the extent arising out of or resulting from or in connection with (a) any breach of this Agreement by LMIC or (b) any negligence, or willful misconduct by any of the LMIC Related Persons, except to the extent that any of the foregoing arises out of or results from the breach of this Agreement by Isologic or the negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Isologic Related Persons. |
7.3. | Indemnification Procedures. All claims for indemnification under this Agreement will be asserted and resolved as follows: |
(a) | A party claiming indemnification under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) will promptly notify in writing the Party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim against the Indemnified Party that could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement. For third party claims, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend, at its sole cost and expense, that third party claim, on its own behalf and on the behalf of the Indemnified Party, by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be prosecuted diligently by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may not enter into any compromise or settlement unless the |
Page 19 of 27
Indemnified Party consents thereto, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party (excluding the internal costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party), cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any third party claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest, including, without limitation, the making of any related counterclaim against the Person asserting the third party claim or any cross-complaint against that person. |
(b) | Notwithstanding the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of any third party claim, the Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of that third party claim; provided that the Indemnifying Party will bear the reasonable and documented costs and expenses of that separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to represent both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party would present that counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such third party claim include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party will have reasonably concluded that there may be a legal defense available to it which is different from or additional to the defenses available to the Indemnifying Party (in which case the Indemnifying Party will not have the right to assume the defense of that third party claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party), (iii) the Indemnifying Party will not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified party to represent the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of that third party claim or (iv) the Indemnifying Party authorizes the Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense. |
(c) | If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days after receipt of notice in accordance with Section 7.3(a) (or any shorter period necessary to respond to that claim) that the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 7.3, or if the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 7.3 but fails to defend the third party claim diligently and promptly, then the Indemnified Party will have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the third party claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be promptly and vigorously defended by the Indemnified Party with respect to a third party claim for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. |
7.4. | Limitations on Liability. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING PROVIDED FOR UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, TREBLE, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY AMOUNTS REPRESENTING LOSS OF PROFITS OR LOSS OF BUSINESS, INCLUDING ANY SUCH DAMAGES |
Page 20 of 27
RESULTING FROM DELAYS IN DELIVERY, OR FAILURE TO DELIVER, ANY PRODUCT, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THAT FIRST PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THOSE DAMAGES (IN EACH CASE, OTHER THAN ANY SHORTFALL PAYMENTS PAYABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND EXCLUDED CLAIMS). |
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING PROVIDED FOR UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE CONTRARY, LMIC’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE LIMITED TO THE NET AMOUNTS ACTUALLY PAID BY ISOLOGIC TO LMIC UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
7.5. | Insurance. Each Party will maintain, at all times during the Term, standard general commercial liability insurance and professional liability/errors and omissions insurance covering negligent acts, errors and omissions in the performance of services from a reputable insurance company. Coverage under each such policy will be in a reasonable amount and consistent with, or more comprehensive than, industry standards with respect to such Party’s obligations under this Agreement. All policies of insurance required to be maintained by either Party under this Agreement will be primary and non-contributory with any other insurance and/or self-insurance carried by the other Party or its Affiliates. Upon request, each Party will provide evidence to the other Party of the coverage or self-insurance required of such Party under this Agreement. The minimum level of insurance or self-coverage set forth in this Agreement will not be construed to create a limit on such Party’s liability under this Agreement. |
ARTICLE 8
MISCELLANEOUS
8.1. | Governing Law. This Agreement (and all claims, controversies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or in connection with, or relate to, this Agreement or its negotiation, execution or performance, including any claim, controversy or cause of action that may be based upon, arise out of or in connection with, or relate to, any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York in the United States, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of laws that would require or permit the application of a different law. |
8.2. | Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with its exhibits (including the SIEA), which are incorporated by reference in this Agreement) constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes and prevails over all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties (whether written or oral), with respect to that subject matter. The Parties agree that neither Party has relied on (and neither Party will have any remedies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) for) any statements, communications, disclosures, failures to disclose, representations, warranties or agreements of the other Party (or of any other person acting on the other Party’s behalf) that is not expressly set forth in this Agreement, including any representations, warranties or agreements arising from statute or otherwise in law. |
Page 21 of 27
8.3. | Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then (i) the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected or impaired in any way by that provision and (ii) the Parties will negotiate in good faith to replace that provision with a valid and enforceable one that effects the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. |
8.4. | Relationship of the Parties. In making and performing this Agreement, the Parties are acting, and intend to be treated, as independent entities and nothing contained in this Agreement will be construed or implied to create an agency, partnership, joint venture, franchise or employer-employee relationship between LMIC and/or any of its employees, independent contractors and/or agents, on the one hand, and Isologic and/or any of its employees, independent contractors and/or agents, on the other hand. Neither Party will have any express or implied right or authority to (i) make any representation, warranty or commitment, (ii) assume, create or impose any obligations, contracts, agreements or undertakings, (iii) incur any charges or expenses, in each case, for, on behalf of, or in the name of, the other Party, unless expressly so authorized in writing by the other Party. |
8.5. | Force Majeure. Each of the Parties will be excused from the performance of its obligations under this Agreement (except for any obligations to make payments to the other Party under this Agreement) for so long as, and neither Party will be liable to the other Party or to any third Person in the event that, its performance is prevented or delayed due to a Force Majeure Event. The Party suffering the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event will notify the other Party as soon as reasonably practicable, stating the period for which that Force Majeure Event is expected to continue, and any time for performance under this Agreement will be extended by the actual time of delay caused by that Force Majeure Event; provided that, (i) Isologic will be allowed to purchase from alternate suppliers those quantities of Products that LMIC is unable to supply under this Agreement on account of any Force Majeure Event, and Isologic will not be in violation of Article 3 in connection with those purchases, and, (ii) in the event that LMIC is unable to supply any Product under this Agreement on account of any Force Majeure Event that lasts for more than *** (***) days, then Isologic will have the option at any time during the continuation of LMIC’s inability to supply that Product under this Agreement on account of the Force Majeure Event to ***. For the avoidance of doubt, the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event shall not extend the term of this Agreement beyond the Term. |
8.6. | Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to compliance with, or breach or alleged breach, interpretation or validity of, this Agreement or otherwise relating to the Parties (each a “Dispute”) will be exclusively resolved by binding arbitration, which arbitration may be commenced by sending a written notice to the other Party demanding arbitration of that Dispute (the “Demand”). In that event, the Dispute will be finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the United States |

Arbitration Act and the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The place of the arbitration will be New York, New York. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language before a panel of three arbitrators. Each Party will name one arbitrator, and the two so named will name the third arbitrator, who will act as chairman. If the two party arbitrators cannot agree on a third arbitrator within *** (***) days after the Demand, the third arbitrator will be selected by the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrators will promptly meet, fix the time, date and place of the hearing and notify the Parties. The arbitration will be conducted within *** (***) days after any Demand. The panel of arbitrators will promptly transmit an executed copy of its decision to the Parties. The decision of the arbitrators will be final, binding and conclusive upon the Parties. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each Party retains the right to seek from a court any interim or provisional relief that may be necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the establishment of the arbitrators’ determination of the merits of the controversy, and any such action will not be deemed incompatible with this Agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitration. The obligations of the Parties under this Section 8.6 are specifically enforceable and will survive any termination of this Agreement. All awards are subject to Section 7.4; provided that the arbitrators may award to the party prevailing in the arbitration its reasonable out-of-pocket costs, including the reasonable fees and expenses of the arbitrators and legal counsel incurred in the arbitration proceedings, or the arbitrators may award the costs on a distributive basis that apportions costs on an issue-by-issue basis and based on the inverse proportion that any amount actually contested but not awarded to Isologic or LMIC bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Isologic and LMIC, respectively. |

provided, in each case, the assigning Party provides to the other Party written notice of such assignment or transfer as soon as reasonably possible and the assignee, acquirer, successor or surviving entity, as the case may be, agrees in writing to be bound (or by operation of law is bound) by all of the obligations of that Party under this Agreement.

8.10. | Modifications. Except as otherwise expressly provided, this Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in a writing signed by each of the Parties. The Parties agree that, in the event that there is a change in Law that affects (or may affect) the legality or enforceability of this Agreement or any of its provisions or that materially and adversely affects the ability of any Party to perform its obligations or receive the benefits intended under this Agreement, then, as soon as reasonably practical following written notice thereof, the Parties will negotiate reasonably and in good faith (provided that neither Party will have any obligation to enter into) an amendment or substitute agreement in order to best reflect the original intent of the Parties in a manner consistent with that change in applicable Law. |
8.11. | Waivers. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless it is explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. No failure or delay of a Party in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof. No single or partial waiver in any one or more instances will be deemed to constitute a further or continuing waiver in other instances or a waiver of any provision not expressly identified by that written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. |

4. | OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES |
4.1 | Compliance with Laws. Each Party will, and will cause its respective employees and officers, to comply with all Laws which may be applicable to the Transition Services. |
4.2 | Standard of Performance. Seller will provide the Transition Services (a)(i) in substantially the same manner as it performed those services for itself in conducting the Radiopharmacy Business during the twelve (12) months immediately prior to the Closing Date or (ii) in a manner that provides Buyer with substantially the same benefits, functionality or use as Seller had received in conducting the Radiopharmacy Business during the twelve (12) months immediately prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each of clauses (a)(i) and (a)(ii) so long as it does not unreasonably interfere (taking into account that Seller is undergoing a transition) with the operations of the Retained Business or the Seller or its Affiliates) and, (b) as applicable, in accordance with cGMP. |
4.3 | Governance Principles. Buyer acknowledges that Seller will have sole control over the manner in which the Transition Services are performed, except for the specific obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement. Such Transition Services performed by Seller for the benefit of Buyer are provided for the sole benefit of the Radiopharmacy Business purchased by Buyer from Seller under the Purchase Agreement. Seller will also be responsible for the proper management of, and control over, the provisions of the Transition Services (including, without limitation, the determination or designation, at any time, of the equipment, employees and other resources of Seller or Buyer to be used in connection with the provisions of the Transition Services). In providing the Transition Services, Seller, as it deems appropriate and acting reasonably, may, subject to Section 4.2, (i) use its own personnel, equipment, facilities, systems and other resources or, so long as it does not unreasonably interfere (taking into account that Buyer and the Radiopharmacy Business are undergoing a transition and integration) with the operations of the Radiopharmacy Business or the Buyer or its Affiliates, the Purchased Assets or equipment, facilities, systems and other resources of Buyer; (ii) employ the services of a subcontractor (subject to the approval of the Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and provided that Seller shall be responsible for the performance of any such subcontractor, and any subcontractor must agree in writing to be bound by confidentiality obligation at least as protective as the terms of this Agreement regarding confidentiality); and/or (iii) provide substitutes for said personnel, equipment and subcontractors, as well any other resources employed for the provision of the Transition Services. |
4.4 | Consent. Seller will obtain, prior to the Closing Date, all consents, waivers, extension of contracts and other permissions required to enable Seller to provide, and Buyer to |
- 4 -
receive, the Transition Services; provided that Seller will not be obligated to incur any costs in obtaining any such consents. If Seller is unable to secure the required consent, waiver, extension or other permission, the Parties must negotiate in good faith and use their respective reasonable endeavours to agree upon the reasonable and lawful means by which Seller may make available to Buyer the benefit of the Transition Services to which that consent, waiver, extension or other permission relates; provided that, in the event that the Parties are unable to so agree, then Buyer will be excused of its obligations to provide such Transition Services under this Agreement. |
4.5 | Collaboration from the Buyer. Buyer acknowledges that the provision of some of the Transition Services may require its reasonable collaboration, instructions and information and other reasonable support and assistance, which Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to Seller, at Buyer’s cost and expense on a timely basis, failing which Seller will be excused from its obligations to provide such Transition Services to the extent of any impact resulting from such failure. |
4.6 | Buyer Obligations. In order to permit performance of the Transition Services by Seller, Buyer will (in each case, so long as it does not unreasonably interfere (taking into account that Seller is undergoing a transition) with the operations of the Radiopharmacy Business or the Buyer or its Affiliates): |
(i) | permit Seller Employees to have reasonable access to the Purchased Assets (including the radiopharmacies forming part of the Purchased Assets and all related equipment, premises, facilities, systems and other resources) as reasonably necessary for the provision of the Transition Services; provided that Buyer will not be required to grant access or furnish information to the Seller to the extent that such assets or information: (i) is subject to solicitor/client or solicitor work product privileges unless Seller agrees to enter into a common interest privilege agreement to protect such privilege, (ii) consists of personnel records of Buyer relating to individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories or other information that in Buyer’s good faith opinion is sensitive (including commercially or competitively sensitive information) or the disclosure of which could subject Buyer to risk of liability, or (iii) is subject to an obligation of confidentiality or non-use in favour of a third party that does not entitle Buyer to disclose to Seller, or Seller to use, as a representative of Buyer thereunder; provided that if such access or information is denied for such reasons, then Seller will be excused from its obligations to provide the impacted Transition Services to the extent of any impact resulting from such refusal; |
(ii) | make available to Seller Employees the reasonable cooperation of the Transferred Employees or Buyer’s other employees involved in integration and transition efforts, in each case, as reasonably necessary for the provision of the Transition Services; and |
(iii) | provide such other resources (including personnel, equipment, tools and supplies) and commercially reasonable efforts as reasonably necessary for the provision of the Transition Services. |

- 6 -
records, medical histories or other information that in Buyer’s good faith opinion is sensitive (including commercially or competitively sensitive information) or the disclosure of which could subject Buyer to risk of liability, or (iii) is subject to an obligation of confidentiality or non-use in favour of a third party that does not entitle Buyer to disclose to Seller, or Seller to use, as a representative of Buyer thereunder; provided that if such access or information is denied for such reasons, then Seller will be excused from its obligations to provide the impacted Transition Services to the extent of any impact resulting from such refusal. |
7.2 | Isolation of Business Records. Each of the Parties will ensure that it is able to isolate the other Party’s data and records in the possession of one Party as a result of this Agreement from those of the other Party. |
7.3 | Extraction of Business Records.

Such separation and delivery will take place as promptly as practicable after the end of the Term or the termination of the relevant Transition Services, as the case may be. |
7.4 | Return of Property. Seller agrees that on the expiration or termination of this Agreement, for any cause whatsoever, Seller will return to Buyer, as promptly as practicable, any of Buyer’s property in Seller’s possession or under Seller’s control as a result of this Agreement.

Schedule A sets forth a summary of the Seller’s reasonable identification and estimate of any out-of-pocket expenses it expects to incur in rendering the Transition Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not reimburse Seller for any expenses incurred in fulfilling its obligations under the Purchase Agreement (except to the extent that the Purchase Agreement provides that Buyer shall reimburse such expenses). |

Within *** (***) days after the end of each calendar month, Seller will provide Buyer with a written invoice for all fees and expenses related to the Transition Services rendered for the prior period.

All invoices will contain the information prescribed in the Input Tax Credit (GST/HST) Regulations or equivalent provincial legislation. Seller shall have the responsibility for remittance of all such Sales Taxes payable and actually received from Buyer to the appropriate taxing authority, and shall be liable for any penalties, interest and other charges and any other fees or costs arising from Seller’s failure to remit any such amounts actually received to the authority. Buyer will not have the right to set off any amounts due and payable under this Agreement against any liabilities arising or amounts owed by Seller under any of the Purchase Agreement, except to the extent of a final resolution of such claims in its favor (whether such resolution is by mutually agreement or pursuant to a final and binding arbitration decision rendered in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement). |

In this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means any and all confidential or proprietary information (whether in written, visual, oral or any other form) disclosed by or on behalf of any Party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”), either directly or indirectly, or otherwise relating to the Disclosing Party, of a business, financial or technical nature, including, without limitation, information or documents relating to the business, affairs, operations, results of operations, clients, liabilities, prospects, financial conditions or assets of the Disclosing Party or relating to technologies, inventions, concepts, ideas, developments, methods, processes, techniques, know-how, trade secrets, creative works, systems, specifications, formulations, applications, models, data, prototypes, documentation, reports, records, manuals, business plans, as well as any other business and financial information and other tangible or intangible valuable confidential information. Confidential Information will also include summaries, reports, analyses, compilations, memoranda, notes, extracts, studies or other writings or documents prepared by, for or on behalf of the Receiving Party to the extent they contain or reflect the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. |
- 11 -
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the purposes of this Agreement Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party will not include (i) any information which was publicly known and made generally available in the public domain prior to the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party, (ii) any information which becomes publicly known and made generally available after disclosure by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party through no action or inaction of the Receiving Party, (iii) any information which is already in the possession of the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party as shown by the Receiving Party’s written files and records as they existed prior to the time of disclosure (excluding information in the possession of Seller as a result of its ownership of the Purchased Assets), (iv) any information which is obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without a breach of such third party’s obligations of confidentiality, (v) any information which is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, as proven by the Receiving Party’s written files and records (excluding information in the possession of Seller as a result of its ownership of the Purchased Assets), or (vi) information to the extent that it relates primarily to the Receiving Party or its Affiliates or their respective businesses.
12.2 | Confidentiality and Non-Use. The Seller agrees to use any Confidential Information of the Buyer solely for the purpose of providing the Transition Services which Seller has agreed to provide under this Agreement (the “Authorized Purpose”), and not for any other purpose, including for any third party’s benefit. The Receiving Party agrees that it will keep strictly confidential and will not disclose or disseminate any of the Confidential Information provided by the Disclosing Party to anyone without the express written consent of the Disclosing Party, except that the Seller will have the limited right to disclose the Confidential Information to its employees, advisors, subcontractors and service providers who are required to have the information in order to provide the Transition Services to the Buyer (which persons or entities will be bound by confidentiality obligations substantially similar to those set forth herein). |
12.3 | Legally Compelled Disclosure. In the event the Receiving Party is required to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to a valid order by a court or other governmental body or as otherwise required by applicable Laws, prior to any such compelled disclosure, the Receiving Party will (i) forthwith notify the Disclosing Party of the legal process, and allow the Disclosing Party to assert the privileged and confidential nature of the Confidential Information against the third party seeking disclosure, and (ii) cooperate fully with the Disclosing Party in protecting against any such disclosure and/or obtaining a protective order narrowing the scope of such disclosure and/or use of the Confidential Information. In the event that such protection against disclosure is not obtained, the Receiving Party will be entitled to disclose the Confidential Information, but only as and to the extent necessary to legally comply with such compelled disclosure. |
12.4 | Personal Information. In the course of performing its duties under this Agreement, each of the Parties may collect or receive from or through the other Party, personal information that can be linked to an identifiable individual (“Personal Information”). Each of the Parties will comply with and take all necessary measures to ensure that their activities comply with the applicable provisions of the Personal Information Protection |
- 12 -
and Electronic Documents Act (Canada) and any similar provincial privacy legislation (as amended or enacted from time to time) including without restriction, obligations relating to the collection, use, retention, disclosure and protection of Personal Information. The Parties hereby undertake to immediately notify the other Parties if there is reason to believe that there has been an unauthorized access to or disclosure of Personal Information or if there is reason to believe that there has been a contravention, or there is likely to be a contravention, of any provision of this Agreement or applicable Laws in connection with the collection, use, disclosure, retention or access to Personal Information, and under no circumstances will either Party discuss such incident with any other person. |
13. | MISCELLANEOUS |
13.1 | Governing Law. This Agreement (and all claims, controversies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or in connection with, or relate to, this Agreement or its negotiation, execution or performance, including any claim, controversy or cause of action that may be based upon, arise out of or in connection with, or relate to, any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York in the United States, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of laws that would require or permit the application of a different Law. |
13.2 | Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Purchase Agreement and their respective exhibits and schedules) constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes and prevails over all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties (whether written or oral), with respect to that subject matter. The Parties agree that neither Party has relied on (and neither Party will have any remedies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) for) any statements, communications, disclosures, failures to disclose, representations, warranties or agreements of the other Party (or of any other person acting on the other Party’s behalf) that is not expressly set forth in this Agreement, including any representations, warranties or agreements arising from statute or otherwise in law. |
13.3 | Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then (i) the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected or impaired in any way by that provision and (ii) the Parties will negotiate in good faith to replace that provision with a valid and enforceable one that effects the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. |
13.4 | Relationship of the Parties. In making and performing this Agreement, the Parties are acting, and intend to be treated, as independent entities and nothing contained in this Agreement will be construed or implied to create an agency, partnership, joint venture, |
- 13 -
franchise or employer-employee relationship between Seller and/or any of its employees, independent contractors and/or agents, on the one hand, and Buyer and/or any of its employees, independent contractors and/or agents, on the other hand. Neither Party will have any express or implied right or authority to (i) make any representation, warranty or commitment, (ii) assume, create or impose any obligations, contracts, agreements or undertakings, (iii) incur any charges or expenses, in each case, for, on behalf of, or in the name of, the other Party, unless expressly so authorized in writing by the other Party. |
13.5 | Force Majeure. Each of the Parties will be excused from the performance of its obligations under this Agreement (except for any obligations to make payments to the other Party under this Agreement) for so long as, and neither Party will be liable to the other Party or to any third Person in the event that, its performance is prevented or delayed due to a Force Majeure Event. The Party suffering the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event will notify the other Party as soon as reasonably practicable, stating the period for which that Force Majeure Event is expected to continue, and any time for performance under this Agreement, the applicable Transition Period and, if applicable, the Term of this Agreement will be extended by the actual time of delay caused by that Force Majeure Event. The Party affected by a Force Majeure Event shall exert commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate, cure or overcome such event and to resume performance of its obligations. |
13.6 | Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to compliance with, or breach or alleged breach, interpretation or validity of, this Agreement or otherwise relating to the Parties (each a “Dispute”) will be exclusively resolved by binding arbitration, which arbitration may be commenced by sending a written notice to the other Party demanding arbitration of that Dispute (the “Demand”). In that event, the Dispute will be finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act and the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The place of the arbitration will be New York, New York. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language before a panel of three arbitrators. Each Party will name one arbitrator, and the two so named will name the third arbitrator, who will act as chairman. If the two party arbitrators cannot agree on a third arbitrator within *** (***) days after the Demand, the third arbitrator will be selected by the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrators will promptly meet, fix the time, date and place of the hearing and notify the Parties. The arbitration will be conducted within *** (***) days after any Demand. All awards are subject to Section 9.4. The panel of arbitrators will promptly transmit an executed copy of its decision to the Parties. The decision of the arbitrators will be final, binding and conclusive upon the Parties. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each Party retains the right to seek from a court any interim or provisional relief that may be necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the establishment of the arbitrators’ determination of the merits of the controversy, and any such action will not be deemed incompatible with this Agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitration. The obligations of the Parties under this Section 13.6 are specifically enforceable and will survive any termination of this Agreement. All awards are subject to Section 9.4; provided that the arbitrators may award to the party prevailing in the arbitration its reasonable out-of-pocket costs, including the reasonable fees and expenses |
- 14 -
of the arbitrators and legal counsel incurred in the arbitration proceedings, or the arbitrators may award the costs on a distributive basis that apportions costs on an issue-by-issue basis and based on the inverse proportion that any amount actually contested but not awarded to Buyer or Seller bears to the aggregate amount actually contested by Buyer and Seller, respectively. |
13.7 | Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents, approvals and other communications to any Party required to be given or delivered under, or by reason of, this Agreement will be in writing, and will be deemed to have been given when actually received (or refused) by the addressee after being sent by personal delivery, certified or registered mail, reputable overnight express courier or facsimile (with hard copy to follow) to the address for the addressee set forth below: |

13.8 | Successors and Assigns; Assignment. Neither this Agreement, nor any right, interest or obligation under this Agreement, may be assigned or otherwise transferred by either Party (whether by contract, operation of law or otherwise), in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of the other Party; provided, however, that: |
(a) | either Party may assign or otherwise transfer any or all of its rights, or delegate any or all of its respective duties or obligations, under this Agreement without the consent of the other Party, to an Affiliate of such Party (but only for as long as such Person remains such Party’s Affiliate, and provided that such Person has the capabilities and legal authorization necessary to perform the assigned duties and obligations), it being agreed that no such assignment to a Party’s Affiliate will release the assigning Party from its obligations under this Agreement; |
(b) | each Party will assign or otherwise transfer all of its applicable rights, and delegate all of its applicable duties and obligations, under this Agreement without the consent of the other Party, to (i) an acquirer of, or successor to, (1) all or substantially all of the assets of that Party (or any of its parent companies) or (2) all or substantially all of any business line to which this Agreement relates or (ii) the surviving entity in any merger, consolidation, equity exchange or reorganization to which (1) that Party (or any of its parent companies) or (2) that business line is a party; and |
(c) | either Party may assign or otherwise transfer any or all of its rights, or delegate any or all of its duties or obligations, under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party for the benefit of any lenders under any financing arrangement of the first-mentioned Party or its Affiliates; |
provided, in each case, the assigning Party provides to the other Party written notice of such assignment or transfer as soon as reasonably possible and the assignee, acquirer, successor or surviving entity, as the case may be, agrees in writing to be bound (or by operation of law is bound) by all of the obligations of that Party under this Agreement. Any assignment or transfer in violation of this Agreement will be null and void and have no force or effect. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties, and its respective successors and assigns as permitted under this Agreement.
13.9 | Third Party Beneficiaries. None of the provisions of this Agreement will be for the benefit of or enforceable by any third party (other than the Seller Related Parties and the Buyer Related Parties with respect to Section 10) including any creditor of any Party. No third party will obtain any right under any provision of this Agreement or will by reason of any such provision make any claim in respect of any debt, liability or obligation (or otherwise) against any Party. |
- 16 -
13.10 | Modifications. Except as otherwise expressly provided, this Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in a writing signed by each of the Parties. The Parties agree that, in the event that there is a change in Law that affects (or may affect) the legality or enforceability of this Agreement or any of its provisions or that materially and adversely affects the ability of any Party to perform its obligations or receive the benefits intended under this Agreement, then, as soon as reasonably practical following written notice thereof, the Parties will negotiate reasonably and in good faith (provided that neither Party will have any obligation to enter into) an amendment or substitute agreement in order to best reflect the original intent of the Parties in a manner consistent with that change in applicable Law. |
13.11 | Waivers. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless it is explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. No failure or delay of a Party in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof. No single or partial waiver in any one or more instances will be deemed to constitute a further or continuing waiver in other instances or a waiver of any provision not expressly identified by that written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. |
13.12 | Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original, and those counterparts will together constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile transmission of an executed counterpart signature page will be deemed an original. |
13.13 | Purchase Agreement. The Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that certain provisions of the Purchase Agreement are incorporated by reference herein, or by their terms otherwise apply hereto, and further agree that such provisions will be given full effect in interpreting and enforcing this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Agreement will control. |
13.14 | Further Assurances. Each of Buyer and Seller will, at the request of the other Party and at such other Party’s expense, promptly execute and deliver to such other Party all such further instruments, assignments, filings and other documents, and do all such things, as such other Party may reasonably request in connection with the carrying out and effectuating the terms of this Agreement. |
