(“Palatin”). AMAG and Palatin may each be referred to
herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as

(each, as defined below);
WHEREAS, AMAG has

of pharmaceutical products, and desires to acquire an exclusive
license in the Territory (as defined below) under Palatin’s
patents, patent applications, technology, know-how, scientific and
technical information and other proprietary rights and information
relating to Compounds; and
WHEREAS, subject to
the terms of this Agreement, Palatin wishes to grant to AMAG, and
AMAG wishes to receive from Palatin, (a) an exclusive license
in the Territory to use, research, develop, manufacture and
commercialize Compounds and Products (as defined below) and
(b) a non-exclusive license to research, develop and
manufacture (but not commercialize) Compounds and Products in all
countries outside of the Territory.
NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
set forth below and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Parties hereby agree as follows:
1.

(collectively, the “Contemplated Transactions”) shall
be effective and binding on the Parties as of 9:00

Parties. The remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be
effective and binding on the Parties as of the Execution
Date.
1.1.1. The
obligations of each Party to consummate the Contemplated
Transactions are subject to the fulfillment, or to the extent
permitted by applicable Law, waiver by the applicable Party, of the
following condition (the “Mutual
Condition”):
(a) (1) a
determination by AMAG that the SEC Financial Statements are not
required to be filed by AMAG pursuant to Section 8.4.9 or
(2) if AMAG

determines that the
SEC Financial Statements are required to be filed by AMAG pursuant
to Section 8.4.9, Palatin has delivered the SEC Financial
Statements to AMAG pursuant to, and in compliance with, the terms
of Section 8.4.9.
1.1.2. The
obligations of AMAG to consummate the Contemplated Transactions are
subject to the fulfillment, or to the extent permitted by
applicable Law, waiver by AMAG, in its sole discretion, of the
following conditions (the “AMAG Conditions” and
together with the Mutual Condition, the “Effectiveness
Conditions”):
(a) Palatin
shall have obtained the prior written consent and acknowledgement
of the Horizon Lenders that the Contemplated Transactions
constitute a “Permitted License” as defined under the
Horizon Agreement and shall not constitute an event of default or
other breach by Palatin under the Horizon Agreement;
(b) Palatin
shall have obtained the prior written consent and acknowledgment of
Catalent Belgium S.A. (“Catalent”) that the
Contemplated Transactions do not constitute a “Change of
Control” under either of the Catalent Agreements, and that
the only amounts payable to Catalent in connection with the
Contemplated Transactions are those set forth under
Section 3.3 of the Catalent Services Agreement;
and
(c) Palatin
shall have obtained the prior written consent and acknowledgement
of Catalent to the assignment of each of the Catalent Agreements to
AMAG, which consent and acknowledgement shall further state that
Catalent (i) acknowledges that the Catalent Agreements are and
shall continue to be in full force and effect following the
Effective Date, (ii) waives any right of termination Catalent
may have under the Catalent Agreements as a result of the
Contemplated Transactions and (iii) confirms that there is
currently no default existing under the Catalent Agreements that
has not been cured and that Catalent is not aware of any event or
condition, which with the passage of time or the giving of notice,
or both, would constitute a default under the Catalent
Agreements.

Terms. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings set forth in Exhibit A.

shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or
other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments,

Territory,
together with such additional Palatin Know-How as AMAG may
reasonably request, in each case to the extent developed by Palatin
on or prior to the Effective Date, in either the format in which
such Palatin Know-How then exists or in such other format as AMAG
may reasonably request (including by download of digital files to a
secure website or e-room designated and controlled by
AMAG).
2.9. Continuing
Disclosure and Knowledge Transfer. On a Calendar Quarter
basis, or more frequently at the reasonable request of AMAG during
the Term, Palatin shall disclose to AMAG any Palatin Know-How
developed by Palatin since Palatin’s most recent disclosure.
Such disclosure shall be in either the format in which such Palatin
Know-How then exists or in such other format as AMAG may reasonably
request (including by download of digital files to a secure website
or e-room designated and controlled by AMAG). Further, Palatin
shall make appropriate personnel available to AMAG at reasonable
times and places and upon reasonable prior notice for the purpose

Non-Competition Obligations. During the Term, Palatin shall
not, directly or indirectly, itself or through any Affiliate,

receptor-4 agonists but excluding Compounds, in the Territory for
indications other than in the field of female sexual
dysfunction.
2.11. Assignment

listed on Schedule 2.11 (the “Assigned
Contracts”).
2.12. Palatin
Retained Rights. Notwithstanding the rights granted to AMAG
in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2, and without limiting the
generality of Section 2.6, the Parties acknowledge that
Palatin retains the right to practice the Palatin Technology in the
Territory to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement,
including the Palatin Development Activities.
3.

one-time payment of sixty million dollars ($60,000,000) minus the
Holdback Amount, within five (5) days following the Effective

3.5.2. Fully
Paid-Up, Royalty Free License. Following expiration of the
Royalty Term for any Product in a given country, no further
royalties shall be payable in respect of sales of such Product in

Sections 2.1 and 2.2 with respect to such Product in such country
shall automatically become fully paid-up, perpetual, irrevocable
and royalty-free.
3.5.3. Royalty
Adjustments. The following adjustments shall be made, on a
Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis, to the royalties
payable pursuant to Section 3.5.1, in each case, subject to

Right(s) (each such Third Party license referred to herein as
an “Additional Third Party License”). Any royalty
otherwise payable to Palatin under this Agreement with respect to
Net Sales of any Product by AMAG, its Affiliates or Sublicensees
shall be reduced by [...***...], such reduction to continue until
all such amounts have been expended, provided that in no event [...***...]
shall the total royalty payable to Palatin for any Product be less
than [...***...] of the royalty amounts otherwise payable for such
Product.
(b) No
Adjustment for Palatin Third Party Agreements. Palatin shall
be solely responsible for (i) all obligations (including any
royalty or other obligations that relate to the Palatin Technology)
under its agreements with Third Parties that are in effect as of
the Effective Date or that Palatin enters into during the Term, in
each case, other than the Assigned Contracts, and (ii) all
payments to inventors (other than inventors that are
Representatives of AMAG) of Palatin Technology or Joint Technology,
including payments under inventorship compensation
Laws.
(c) Generic
Entry. As used in this Section 3.5(c), “Generic
Competition” means, with respect to a given Product in a
given country in the Territory, that (a) one or more Generic
Products to such Product are available in such country and
(b) […***…]. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, upon the occurrence of Generic
Competition with respect to a Product in a given country in the
Territory, any royalty payments owed with respect to such Product
in such country pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be reduced
by […***…].

3.6.1. Cumulative
Royalties. The obligation to pay royalties under this
Agreement shall be imposed only once with respect to any sale of
any given unit of a Product.
3.6.2. Royalty
Statements and Payments. Within […***…] of the
end of each Calendar Quarter, AMAG shall deliver to Palatin a
report setting forth the following information for such Calendar
Quarter, on a Product-by-Product, country-by-country and
Territory-wide basis: (a) gross sales of each Product,

gross sales (by category as set forth in the definition of Net
Sales) to arrive at the Net Sales calculation, (d) the basis
for any adjustments to the royalty payable for the sale of any such
Product and (e) the royalty due hereunder for the sale of each
such Product. No such reports shall be due for any such Product
(i) before the First Commercial Sale of such Product or
(ii) after the Royalty Term for such Product has expired in
all countries in the Territory. The total royalty due for the sale
of all such Products during such Calendar Quarter shall be remitted
within […***…] following the delivery of such

3.6.3. Taxes
and Withholding. It is understood and agreed between the
Parties that any payments made by AMAG under this Agreement are
inclusive of any value added or similar tax imposed upon such
payments. In addition, in the event any payments made by AMAG
pursuant to this Agreement become subject to withholding taxes
under the Laws or regulations of any jurisdiction or Governmental
Authority, AMAG shall deduct and withhold the amount of such taxes
for the account of Palatin to the extent required by applicable
Laws or regulations; such amounts payable to Palatin shall be
reduced by the amount of taxes deducted and withheld; and AMAG
shall pay the amounts of such taxes to the proper Governmental
Authority in a timely manner and transmit to Palatin an official
tax certificate or other evidence of such tax obligations together
with proof of payment from the relevant Governmental Authority of
all amounts deducted and withheld sufficient to enable Palatin to
claim such payment of taxes. Any such withholding taxes required
under applicable Laws or regulations to be paid or withheld shall
be an expense of, and borne solely by, Palatin. AMAG will provide
Palatin with reasonable assistance to enable Palatin to recover
such taxes as permitted by applicable Laws or
regulations.
3.6.4. Currency.
All amounts payable and calculations under this Agreement shall be
in United States dollars. As applicable, Net Sales and any
adjustments to payments under this Agreement shall be translated
into United States dollars at the exchange rate used by AMAG for
public financial accounting purposes. If, due to restrictions or
prohibitions imposed by national or international authority, a
given payment cannot be made as provided in this Section 3,
the Parties shall consult with a view to finding a prompt and
acceptable solution. If the Parties are unable to identify a
mutually acceptable solution regarding such payment, then AMAG may
elect, in its sole discretion, to deliver such payment in the
relevant jurisdiction and in the local currency of the relevant
jurisdiction.
3.6.5. Method
of Payment. Except as permitted pursuant to
Section 3.6.4, each payment hereunder shall be made by
electronic transfer in immediately available funds via either a
bank wire transfer, an ACH (automated clearing house) mechanism, or

writing to AMAG at least […***…] before the payment is
due.
3.6.6. Record
Keeping. AMAG shall keep and shall cause its Affiliates to
keep books and accounts of record in connection with the sale of
Products in sufficient detail to permit accurate determination of
all figures necessary for verification of royalties and Sales
Milestone Payments to be paid hereunder. AMAG and its Affiliates
shall maintain such records for a period of at least
[…***…] after the end of the Calendar Quarter in which
they were generated.
3.6.7. Audits.
(a) Palatin
Audit Rights. Upon […***…] prior notice from
Palatin, AMAG shall permit an independent certified public
accounting firm of nationally recognized standing selected by
Palatin and reasonably acceptable to AMAG, to examine, at

examination by Palatin under this Section 3.6.7(a) shall
occur not more than once in any Calendar Year and shall be limited
to the pertinent books and records for any Calendar Year ending not
more than […***…] before the date of the request. The
accounting firm shall be provided access to such books and records
at AMAG’s or its Affiliates’ facility(ies) where such
books and records are normally kept and such examination shall be
conducted during AMAG’s normal business hours. AMAG may
require the accounting firm to sign a reasonably acceptable
non-disclosure agreement before providing the accounting firm with
access to AMAG’s or its Affiliates’ facilities or
records. Upon completion of the audit, the accounting firm shall
provide both AMAG and Palatin a written report disclosing any
discrepancies in the reports submitted by AMAG or the royalties or
Sales Milestone Payments paid by AMAG, and, in each case, the
specific details concerning any discrepancies.
(b) AMAG
Audit Rights. Upon […***…] prior notice from
AMAG, Palatin shall permit AMAG or an independent certified public
accounting firm of nationally recognized standing selected by AMAG
and reasonably acceptable to Palatin, to examine, at AMAG’s
sole expense, the relevant books and records of Palatin and its
Affiliates as may be reasonably necessary to verify Ongoing Program
Expenses invoiced to AMAG pursuant to Section 3.2. An
examination by AMAG under this Section 3.6.7(b) shall
occur not more than once in any Calendar Year and shall be limited
to the pertinent books and records for any Calendar Year ending not
more than three (3) years before the date of the request. AMAG
or the accounting firm, as applicable, shall be provided access to
such books and records at Palatin’s or its Affiliates’
facility(ies) where such books and records are normally kept and
such examination shall be conducted during Palatin’s normal
business hours. Palatin may require the accounting firm to sign a

accounting firm with access to Palatin’s or its
Affiliates’ facilities or records. Upon completion of the
audit, AMAG or the accounting firm, as applicable, shall provide
Palatin a written report disclosing any discrepancies in the
Ongoing Program Expenses reported by Palatin or the corresponding
reimbursements paid by AMAG, and, in each case, the specific
details concerning any discrepancies.
3.6.8. Underpayments/Overpayments.
If any audit conducted pursuant to
Section 3.6.7(a) concludes that additional royalties or
Sales Milestone Payments were due to Palatin, then AMAG will pay to
Palatin the additional royalties or Sales Milestone Payments, plus
interest on the deficient amount, as calculated pursuant to
Section 3.6.9, within […***…] of the date AMAG
receives such accountant’s written report.
[…***…]. If any audit conducted pursuant to
Section 3.6.7(a) concludes that AMAG overpaid royalties

overcharged AMAG reimbursements for Ongoing Program Expenses to
Palatin, then Palatin will refund such overcharges or

foregoing, a Party shall have recourse to any other remedy
available at law or in equity with respect to any delinquent
payment, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

Guarantee of Success. AMAG and Palatin acknowledge and agree
that payments to Palatin pursuant to Section 3.3,
Section 3.4 and Section 3.5: (a) have been included
in this Agreement on the basis that they are only payable or
otherwise relevant if a Product is successfully Developed or
Commercialized, as applicable; and (b) are not intended to be

PALATIN
DEVELOPMENT OBLIGATIONS
4.1. Overview.
Palatin shall (a) use diligent efforts to conduct all
development and regulatory activities, including clinical and CMC
activities, necessary to file an NDA for a Product for the Initial
Indication in the United States (including without limitation all
activities set forth in Schedule 4.1(a)), and (b) upon
AMAG’s request, provide AMAG with reasonable assistance
necessary for AMAG to secure Regulatory Approval for such NDA

Development Activities shall not include marketing, market
research, commercialization plans or activities, pre-launch support
or production of inventory in anticipation of launch.
Palatin’s obligations under this Section 4.1 shall
endure until they are successfully completed, regardless of whether

Palatin Development Activities itself, through its Affiliates or
using Third Party contractors selected by AMAG.

to review, approve and oversee the Palatin Development Activities
as described below.
(a) Composition
of the Joint Steering Committee. The JSC shall be comprised
of […***…]. Each Party shall appoint its respective
representatives to the JSC and may substitute any of its
representatives, in its sole discretion, effective upon notice to

(b) JSC
Chairperson. The JSC Chairperson shall be a representative
of AMAG.
4.2.2. Meetings.
During the Development Term, the JSC shall meet in accordance with
a schedule established by mutual written agreement of the Parties,
but no less frequently than (a) once per month until the
filing of an NDA for a Product for the Initial Indication in the
United States and (b) once per Calendar Quarter thereafter, at
a location mutually agreed by the Parties. Alternatively, the JSC
may meet by means of teleconference, videoconference or other
similar means of communication. Each Party shall bear its own
expenses relating to attendance at such meetings by its
representatives.
4.2.3. JSC
Responsibilities. The JSC shall have the following
responsibilities:
(a) reviewing,
approving, monitoring and overseeing all Palatin Development
Activities, including ensuring AMAG’s ability to review and

make
recommendations to the JSC but may not be delegated JSC
decision-making authority; and
(e)
performing such other activities as the Parties agree in writing
shall be the responsibility of the JSC.
4.2.4. Action
by Consensus; Final Decision Making Authority. In spite of
the number of AMAG JSC representatives or Palatin JSC
representatives, each Party shall have one vote, and the JSC shall
make decisions by consensus. If the JSC is unable to reach
consensus with respect to a given matter, then the JSC
representatives of either Party may submit such matter to the Chief
Executive Officers of the Parties, or their designees (any such
designee to be a senior member of the designating Chief Executive
Officer’s management team) for resolution. If such matter is
not resolved within […***…] following such escalation,
then […***…] shall have final decision-making authority
with respect to such matter.
4.2.5. Limits
on JSC Authority. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, (a) each Party shall retain the
rights, powers and discretion granted to it under this Agreement
and no such rights, powers, or discretion shall be delegated to or
vested in the JSC unless such delegation or vesting of rights is
expressly provided for in this Agreement or the Parties expressly
so agree in writing and (b) the JSC shall not have the power

authority over and control of the Development, Manufacture,
Regulatory Approval and Commercialization of Compounds, Products,
Pharmaceutical Products and Product Delivery Devices in the
Territory.
5.2. Diligence.

Approval. Once Palatin has successfully completed all
Palatin Development Activities necessary to file an NDA for a
Product for the Initial Indication in the United States, and
subject to Palatin’s continuing performance of its
obligations under Section 4.1, AMAG will use Commercially
Reasonable Efforts to secure Regulatory Approval of such NDA in the
United States.
5.2.2. Commercial
Diligence. Once the NDA described in Section 5.2.1 has
received Regulatory Approval in the United States with respect to
the Initial Indication, AMAG will use Commercially Reasonable
Efforts to Commercialize the Product covered by such NDA in the
United States with respect to the Initial Indication.

OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO AN
APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24B-2
PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1934, AS
AMENDED.
5.2.3. Exceptions
to Diligence Obligations. Notwithstanding any provision of
this Agreement to the contrary, AMAG will be relieved of all AMAG
Diligence Obligations to the extent that:
(a) AMAG
or Palatin receives or generates any safety, tolerability or other
data indicating or signaling that a Product has or would have an
unacceptable risk-benefit profile or is otherwise not suitable for
initiation or continuation of Clinical Trials;
(b) AMAG
or Palatin receive any notice, information or correspondence from
an applicable Regulatory Authority, or an applicable Regulatory
Authority takes any action, that indicates that a Product is
unlikely to receive Regulatory Approval with respect to the Initial
Indication; or
(c) Palatin
fails to satisfactorily perform the Palatin Development Activities
or other obligations under this Agreement and such failure prevents
AMAG from fulfilling the AMAG Diligence Obligations.
5.2.4. Assertion
of AMAG Diligence Obligation Claims. If Palatin is, becomes
or reasonably should be aware of facts that might form a reasonable
basis to allege that AMAG has failed to meet any of its obligations
under Section 5.2.1 or Section 5.2.2, then Palatin will
promptly notify AMAG in writing of such potential alleged
performance failure (each such potential alleged performance
failure, a “Diligence Issue”). Promptly upon
AMAG’s receipt of any notice of a Diligence Issue pursuant to
this Section 5.2.4, AMAG will contact Palatin to discuss the
specific nature of such Diligence Issue and seek to identify an
appropriate corrective course of action. If, no later than
[…***…] after AMAG’s receipt of such a notice,
(a) the Parties have not reached consensus regarding whether
AMAG has failed to satisfy its obligations pursuant to
Section 5.2.1 or Section 5.2.2 and (b) the Parties
have not agreed upon an appropriate corrective course of action for
such Diligence Issue, then such Diligence Issue will be escalated
and resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions set
forth in Section 11.10.
5.2.5. Remedies
for Breach of AMAG Diligence Obligations. If AMAG materially
breaches any AMAG Diligence Obligation and fails to remedy such
breach within […***…] of AMAG’s receipt of notice
of such breach from Palatin, then Palatin may, in its sole
discretion, elect to either (a) terminate this Agreement
pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.7.1(a) on a
Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis, but only to the
extent that a Product in a given country in the Territory is
directly and adversely impacted by such uncured material breach or
(b) convert any exclusive license granted to AMAG under this
Agreement with respect to a Product in a given country in the
Territory into non-exclusive license, but only to the extent that
such Product in such country is directly and adversely impacted by
such uncured material breach. Palatin acknowledges and agrees that
the elections set forth in this Section 5.2.5: (i) have
been negotiated by the Parties to fully address any harm that
Palatin may incur as a result of AMAG’s material breach of
the AMAG Diligence Obligations and (ii) constitute
Palatin’s sole and exclusive remedies with respect to any
breach by AMAG of any AMAG Diligence Obligation.

Other Covenants. Except as expressly set forth in

covenant, either express or implied, that (A) it will
successfully Develop, Manufacture, Commercialize or continue to
Develop, Manufacture or Commercialize any Product in any country,
(B) if Commercialized, that any Product will achieve any
particular sales level, whether in any individual country or
cumulatively throughout the Territory or (C) AMAG will devote,
or cause to be devoted, any level of diligence or resources to
Developing, Manufacturing or Commercializing any Product in any
country, or in the Territory in general.
5.3. Regulatory
Approvals. AMAG or its designated Affiliate(s) or
Sublicensee(s) shall have the sole authority, at their sole
expense except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, to file
applications for Regulatory Approval of Products, Pharmaceutical
Products and Product Delivery Devices in the Field in the
Territory, including communicating with any Regulatory Authority
both prior to and following Regulatory Approval. As between the
Parties, AMAG shall be the sole and exclusive owner of all such
Regulatory Approval applications (including NDAs) and all

Joint Patent Right anywhere in the world or (ii) requires AMAG
or Palatin to abandon or relinquish any Palatin Patent Right in the
Territory or Joint Patent Right anywhere in the world. Except in

Device, the practice of any Palatin Technology or Joint Technology,
or the exercise of any other right granted by Palatin to AMAG
hereunder (collectively, the “Licensed Activities”) by
AMAG or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees is alleged by a Third
Party to infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate such Third
Party’s Patent Rights or other intellectual property rights,
then the Party discovering the same shall, promptly upon becoming
aware of such allegation, notify the other Party in writing.
Additionally, if either Party determines that, based upon the
review of any Third Party Patent Right or other Third Party
intellectual property rights, it may be desirable to obtain a
license from such Third Party with respect thereto so as to avoid
any potential claim of infringement by such Third Party against
either Party or their respective Affiliates or Sublicensees, then

to engage in the Licensed Activities, it is necessary or desirable
to obtain a license under one or more Patent Rights or other
intellectual property rights Controlled by a Third Party
(collectively, “Third Party IP Rights”), then AMAG
shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to negotiate and
enter into a license or other agreement with such Third Party. All
amounts payable under any such license or agreement with a Third
Party shall reduce AMAG’s royalty obligations under this
Agreement as and to the extent provided in
Section 3.5.3(a).
6.2.5. Third
Party Infringement Suits. Each of the Parties shall promptly
notify the other in the event that any Third Party files any suit
or brings any other action alleging patent infringement by AMAG or
Palatin or any of their respective Affiliates or Sublicensees with
respect to the Development, Manufacture, Commercialization or use
of any Compound, Product, Pharmaceutical Product or Product
Delivery Device or the practice of any Palatin Technology or Joint
Technology (any such suit or other action referred to herein as an
“Infringement Claim”). In the case of any Infringement
Claim against AMAG (including its Affiliates or Sublicensees) alone
or against both AMAG and Palatin (including its Affiliates), AMAG
shall have the right, but not the obligation, at AMAG’s sole
cost and expense subject to the provisions of this
Section 6.2.5, to control the defense of such Infringement
Claim, including control over any related litigation, settlement,
appeal or other disposition arising in connection therewith.
Palatin, upon request of AMAG, agrees to join in any litigation
associated with any Infringement Claim at AMAG’s expense and
in any event to reasonably cooperate with AMAG at AMAG’s
expense (in all cases subject to Palatin’s indemnification
obligations under Section 10.3). Palatin will have the right
to consult with AMAG concerning any Infringement Claim and to
participate in and be represented by independent counsel in any
associated litigation in which Palatin is a party at
Palatin’s own expense. AMAG shall not, without the prior
written consent of Palatin, enter into any compromise or settlement
relating to such litigation that (i) admits the invalidity or
unenforceability of any Palatin Patent Right in the Territory or
Joint Patent Right anywhere in the world or (ii) requires AMAG
or Palatin to abandon or relinquish any Palatin Patent Right in the
Territory or Joint Patent Right anywhere in the world. If AMAG
elects to control the defense of any Infringement Claim and Palatin
is obligated under Section 10.3 to indemnify AMAG (including
any AMAG Indemnified Party) with respect to such Infringement
Claim, then (a) […***…] and (b) Palatin will
otherwise indemnify AMAG and any applicable AMAG Indemnified
Parties to the full extent provided for under Section 10.3. In
the case of any Infringement Claim against Palatin (including
Palatin’s Affiliates) alone, Palatin shall have the right,
but not the obligation, at Palatin’s sole cost and expense,
to control the defense of such Infringement Claim, including
control over any related litigation, settlement, appeal or other
disposition arising in connection therewith; provided that Palatin shall not,
without the prior written consent of AMAG, enter into any
compromise or settlement relating to such litigation that
(i) admits the invalidity or unenforceability of any Palatin
Patent Right in the Territory or Joint Patent Right anywhere in the
world or (ii) requires AMAG or Palatin to abandon or
relinquish any Palatin Patent Right in the Territory or Joint
Patent Right anywhere in the world.

Actions by Third Parties. Each Party shall promptly notify
the other Party in the event of any legal or administrative action
by any Third Party involving any Palatin Patent Right in the
Territory or Joint Patent Right anywhere in the world of which it
becomes aware, including any nullity, revocation, interference,
reexamination or compulsory license proceeding. AMAG shall have the
first right, but no obligation, to defend against any such action
involving any Palatin Patent Right in the Territory or Joint Patent
Right anywhere in the world, in its own name (to the extent
permitted by applicable Law), and any such defense shall be at
AMAG’s reasonable expense, subject to Palatin’s
indemnification obligations under Section 10. Palatin, upon
AMAG’s request, agrees to join in any such action at
AMAG’s expense and in any event to cooperate with AMAG at
AMAG’s expense. If AMAG fails to defend against any such
action involving a Palatin Patent Right or Joint Patent Right, then

the event that AMAG commits a material breach of its obligations
under this Agreement and such material breach remains uncured for
ninety (90) days, measured from the date written notice of such
material breach is given to AMAG; provided, however, that if any breach
is not reasonably curable within ninety (90) days and if AMAG is
making a bona fide effort to cure such breach, such termination
shall be delayed for a time period to be agreed by both Parties in

breach. If the alleged material breach relates to non-payment of
any amount due under

under this Agreement and such material breach remains uncured for
ninety (90) days, measured from the date written notice of such
material breach is given to Palatin; provided, however, that if any breach

reason shall be without prejudice to any right which shall have

9.8.1. Termination
Right. Palatin shall be deemed a “Debtor” under
this Agreement if, at any time during the Term (a) a case is
commenced by or against Palatin under the Bankruptcy Code,

is deemed a Debtor, then AMAG may terminate this Agreement by
providing written notice to Palatin. If AMAG terminates this

licenses granted to AMAG under this Agreement shall become
irrevocable and perpetual, and AMAG shall have no further

(A) those obligations that expressly survive termination in
accordance with Section 9.7.3 and (B) an obligation to
pay royalties with respect to Net Sales of Products in accordance
with and subject to the other terms of this Agreement governing the
payment of royalties; (ii) such termination shall not be
construed to limit Palatin’s right to receive payments that
accrued before the effective date of such termination;

owing to Palatin as provided for under clause (i), above, any
damages found or agreed by the Parties to be owed by Palatin to

agree
that the payments provided for under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4
and all other payments by AMAG to Palatin hereunder, other than
royalty payments pursuant to Section 3.5, do not constitute
royalties within the meaning of Section 365(n) of the
Bankruptcy Code or relate to licenses of intellectual property
hereunder. If (a) a case under the Bankruptcy Code is
commenced by or against Palatin, (b) this Agreement is
rejected as provided in the Bankruptcy Code and (c) AMAG
elects to retain its rights hereunder as provided in
Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, then Palatin (in
any capacity, including debtor-in-possession) and its successors
and assigns (including any trustee) shall provide to AMAG all
intellectual property licensed hereunder, and agrees to grant and
hereby grants to AMAG and its Affiliates a right to access and to
obtain possession of and to benefit from and, in the case of any

(vii) all other embodiments of such intellectual property,
whether any of the foregoing are in Palatin’s possession or
control or in the possession and control of any Third Party but
which Palatin has the right to access or benefit from and to make
available to AMAG. Palatin shall not interfere with the exercise by
AMAG or its Affiliates of rights and licenses to intellectual
property licensed hereunder and embodiments thereof in accordance
with this Agreement and agrees to use Commercially Reasonable
Efforts to assist AMAG and its Affiliates to obtain such
intellectual property and embodiments thereof in the possession or
control of Third Parties as reasonably necessary or desirable for
AMAG or its Affiliates or Sublicensees to exercise such rights and
licenses in accordance with this Agreement.

all liability, loss, damage, expense (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses) and cost (collectively, a

required to pay to one or more Third Parties (other than
shareholders of Palatin or its Affiliates) resulting from or

or intentional acts of Palatin or any Palatin Indemnified
Party.
10.3. Indemnification
by Palatin. Palatin will indemnify, defend and hold harmless
AMAG, its Affiliates, Sublicensees, contractors, distributors and
each of its and their respective employees, officers, directors and
agents (each, a “AMAG Indemnified Party”) from and
against any and all Liabilities that the AMAG Indemnified Party may
be required to pay to one or more Third Parties resulting from or
arising out of:
(a) the
material breach by Palatin of any of its representations,
warranties or covenants set forth in Section 8.1,
Section 8.2, Section 8.3 or Section 8.4 except to
the extent caused by the negligence, recklessness or intentional
acts of AMAG or any AMAG Indemnified Party;
(b) any claim
that the practice of the Palatin Technology to Develop,
Manufacture, Commercialize or use any Compound, Product,
Pharmaceutical Product or Product Delivery Device infringes or
misappropriates any issued patent or other proprietary right owned
or possessed by any Third Party; or
(c) the
negligence or willful misconduct of Palatin in the conduct of the
Palatin Development Activities by or on behalf of
Palatin.
10.4. Procedure.
10.4.1. Notice.
Each Party will notify the other Party in writing in the event it

event
that any Third Party asserts a claim or other proceeding (including
any governmental investigation) with respect to any matter for
which a Party (the “Indemnified Party”) is entitled to
indemnification hereunder (a “Third Party Claim”), then
the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Party obligated to
indemnify the Indemnified Party (the “Indemnifying
Party”) thereof; provided,
however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party
in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying
Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then only to the
extent that) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced
thereby.
10.4.2. Control.
Subject to AMAG’s right to control any actions described in
Sections 6.2.2, 6.2.5, 6.2.6, 6.2.8 or 6.3 (even where Palatin is
the Indemnifying Party), the Indemnifying Party shall have the
right, exercisable by notice to the Indemnified Party within ten
Business Days after receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of
the commencement of or assertion of any Third Party Claim, to
assume direction and control of the defense, litigation,
settlement, appeal or other disposition of the Third Party Claim
(including the right to settle the claim solely for monetary
consideration) with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and
reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; provided that
(a) the Indemnifying Party has sufficient financial resources,
in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, to satisfy the
amount of any adverse monetary judgment that is sought,
(b) the Third Party Claim seeks solely monetary damages and
(c) the Indemnifying Party expressly agrees in writing that as
between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, the
Indemnifying Party shall be solely obligated to satisfy and
discharge the Third Party Claim in full (the conditions set forth
in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above are collectively
referred to as the “Litigation Conditions”). Within ten
(10) Business Days after the Indemnifying Party has given
notice to the Indemnified Party of its exercise of its right to
defend a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give notice
to the Indemnifying Party of any objection thereto based upon the
Litigation Conditions. If the Indemnified Party reasonably so
objects, the Indemnified Party shall continue to defend the Third
Party Claim, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, until such
time as such objection is withdrawn. If no such notice is given, or
if any such objection is withdrawn, the Indemnifying Party shall be
entitled, at its sole cost and expense, to assume direction and
control of such defense, with counsel selected by the Indemnifying
Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. During
such time as the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense of
such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate, and
shall cause its Affiliates and agents to cooperate upon request of
the Indemnifying Party, in the defense or prosecution of the Third
Party Claim, including by furnishing such records, information and
testimony and attending such conferences, discovery proceedings,
hearings, trials or appeals as may reasonably be requested by the
Indemnifying Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party does
not satisfy the Litigation Conditions or does not notify the
Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s intent to
defend any Third Party Claim within ten Business Days after notice
thereof, the Indemnified Party may (without further notice to the
Indemnifying Party) undertake the defense thereof with counsel of
its choice and at the Indemnifying Party’s expense (including
reasonable, out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and costs and
expenses of enforcement or defense). The Indemnifying Party or the
Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have the right to join
in (including the right

to
conduct discovery, interview and examine witnesses and participate
in all settlement conferences), but not control, at its own
expense, the defense of any Third Party Claim that the other party
is defending as provided in this Agreement.
10.4.3. Settlement.
The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Indemnified Party, enter into any compromise or settlement
that commits the Indemnified Party to take, or to forbear to take,
any action. The Indemnified Party shall have the sole and exclusive
right to settle any Third Party Claim, on such terms and conditions
as it deems reasonably appropriate, to the extent such Third Party
Claim involves equitable or other non-monetary relief, but shall
not have the right to settle such Third Party Claim to the extent
such Third Party Claim involves monetary damages without the prior
written consent of the Indemnifying Party. Each of the Indemnifying
Party and the Indemnified Party shall not make any admission of
liability in respect of any Third Party Claim without the prior
written consent of the other party, and the Indemnified Party shall
use reasonable efforts to mitigate liabilities arising from such
Third Party Claim.
10.5. Insurance.
Each Party further agrees to obtain and maintain, during the Term,
commercial general liability insurance, including products
liability insurance, with reputable and financially secure
insurance carriers (or pursuant to a program of self-insurance
reasonably satisfactory to the other Party) to cover its
indemnification obligations under Section 10.2 or
Section 10.3, as applicable, in each case with limits of not
less than […***…] per occurrence and in the aggregate.
Insurance shall be procured with carriers having an A.M. Best
Rating of A-VII or better.

MISCELLANEOUS.
11.1. Assignment.
Neither this Agreement nor any interest hereunder shall be
assignable by a Party without the prior written consent of the

No provision of this Agreement shall be waived by any act, omission
or knowledge of a Party or its agents or employees except by an
instrument in writing expressly waiving such provision and signed
by a duly authorized officer of the waiving Party. The waiver by
either of the Parties of any breach of any provision hereof by the

of the Parties that this Agreement shall be construed in such
fashion as to maintain its existence, validity and enforceability
to the greatest extent possible. In any such event, this Agreement
shall be construed as if such clause of portion thereof had never
been contained in this Agreement, and there shall be deemed
substituted therefor such provision as will most nearly carry out
the intent of the Parties as expressed in this Agreement to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.
