8.7Records. Each Party will keep (and will ensure that its Affiliates and sublicensees keep) such records as are required to determine, in accordance with GAAP or international financial reporting standards, as applicable, and this Agreement, the sums or credits due under this Agreement, including Net Sales and [***] Consideration.

The results of such audit will be final, absent manifest error.

8.9Taxes.

(a)Taxes on Income. Each Party will pay all taxes (including related interest and penalties) imposed on its share of income arising directly or indirectly from the

efforts of, or the accrual, receipt or deemed receipt of any payment by, such Party under this Agreement.

(b)Tax Withholding. If any taxes (including related interest and penalties) are required by Laws to be withheld by the Payor with respect to an amount payable to the Payee, the Payor will: (a) withhold such taxes from the payment made to the Payee; (b) timely pay the withheld taxes to the proper taxing authority; (c) send proof of payment with official receipts issued by the appropriate governmental agency or such other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Payee to the Payee; and (d) reasonably assist the Payee in its efforts to obtain a refund of or credit for such tax payment in accordance with Section 8.9(c). Any amount actually withheld and remitted by the Payor to a taxing authority pursuant to this Section 8.9(b) will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as paid to the Payee. If the Payor makes a payment without deduction for tax withholding and an amount of tax should have been withheld from such payment, the Payor shall be entitled to recover the under-withheld tax (and any penalties, additions to tax and interest related thereto and any penalties, additions to tax and interest payable by the Payor due to the failure to timely withhold) by an additional withholding from any amount payable to the Payee under this Agreement, and to the extent such recovery is insufficient, such Party may make a claim pursuant to ARTICLE 11. No amount shall be withheld, or a reduced amount shall be withheld, as applicable, if, in accordance with Section 8.9(c), a Party that is entitled to a payment timely furnishes the other Party with the necessary tax forms and other documents prescribed by applicable Laws, which shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Party receiving the documents, identifying that the relevant payment is exempt from tax or subject to a reduced tax rate.

(c)Tax Cooperation. The Parties agree to cooperate with one another and use reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of royalties, milestone payments, and other payments made by one Party to the other Party under this Agreement. The Party entitled to a payment will provide the paying Party with any tax forms that may be reasonably necessary in order for the paying Party not to withhold tax or to withhold tax at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty or other applicable Laws. Each Party will provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by Law, of withholding taxes, value added taxes, or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such withholding tax or value added tax.

(b)Enforcement Rights. For any Territory Infringement, each Party will share with the other Party all Information available to it regarding such actual or alleged infringement. As between the Parties, Licensee may bring an appropriate suit or other action against any person or entity engaged in or threatening any such Territory Infringement which infringes (or would infringe) any Licensee Patent or any Licensor Patent that includes claims directed to any Product, at Licensee’s cost and expense.

The enforcing Party will keep the other Party regularly

informed of the status and progress of such enforcement efforts, will reasonably consider the other Party’s comments on any such efforts, and will seek consent of the other Party in any material aspects of such enforcement, including determination of litigation strategy, settlement per Section 9.4(d), and filing of material papers to the competent court or other applicable Government Authority, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by the non-enforcing Party.

(d)Settlement. Licensor will not settle any claim, suit or action that it brought in respect of Territory Infringement in any manner that would negatively impact the applicable Licensor Patents or that would limit or restrict the ability of Licensee to Develop, use, make, have made or Commercialize any Compound or Product anywhere in the Territory in the Field, without the prior written consent of Licensee, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(iii)Licensor shall provide Licensee with prompt (i.e., within [***] Business Days) written notice of any claim or notice by either Licensor or the Principal Licensor of (A) any act, omission or event that constitutes (or with notice or the passage of time or both would constitute) a material breach, violation or default of or under the Principal License Agreement, (B) any actual or potential change or modification to any license granted to Licensor by the Principal Licensor under the Principal License Agreement, which change or modification would adversely affect the Sublicensed Rights, or (C) any attempt by the Principal Licensor to terminate the Principal License Agreement for any reason. For the avoidance of doubt, any termination, reduction in scope, or conversion from exclusive to non-exclusive, whether in whole or in part, or other diminution of rights from Principal Licensor to Licensor would adversely affect the Sublicensed Rights.

(iv)Licensee shall have a right to stand instead of Licensor in relation to curing any breach by Licensor of the Principal License Agreement, or to prevent the early termination of the Principal License Agreement. Licensor shall involve Licensee in Licensor’s attempt to remedy breach or prevent early termination and if Licensor is unable to fulfill its obligations, allow in a timely manner for Licensee to stand in its place to ensure compliance with the Principal License Agreement and forgo any early termination of that.

The foregoing indemnity obligation will not apply (i) to the extent that (x) the Licensee Indemnitees fail to comply with the indemnification procedures set forth in Section 11.3 and Licensor’s defense of the relevant Claims is prejudiced by such failure or (y) such Claims arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Licensee or its Affiliates, or any related breach by Licensee of its representations, warranties or covenants or any other obligation of Licensee hereunder; or (ii) to Claims for which Licensee has an obligation to indemnify Licensor pursuant to Section 11.2, as to which Claims each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of its respective liability for such Claims.

The reviewing Party shall respond with any comments hereunder within [***] Business Days of receipt, unless a shorter deadline is required for the disclosing Party to comply with applicable reporting Laws.

12.5Return of Confidential Information. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, upon termination of this Agreement, the receiving Party will promptly return all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, including all reproductions and copies thereof in any medium, except that the receiving Party may retain one (1) copy for only archival purpose as may be required by law, its standard document retention policies, or to demonstrate its compliance with this Agreement.

ARTICLE 13

TERM AND TERMINATION

13.1Term. This Agreement becomes effective on the Effective Date, and, unless sooner terminated as specifically provided in this Agreement, continues in effect on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis until the expiration of all payment obligations hereunder (the “Term”).

13.2Termination.

(a)Default Notice / Breach. Each Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) may terminate this Agreement, on a country-by-country basis, a Program-by-Program basis, or in its entirety, immediately upon written notice to the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) if the Breaching Party materially breaches its obligations under this Agreement and, after receiving written notice identifying such material breach in reasonable detail (a “Default Notice”), fails to cure such material breach within [***] days (the “Cure Period”) after delivery of the Default Notice (or within [***] days after delivery of the Default Notice if such material

breach is solely based on the Breaching Party’s failure to pay any amounts due hereunder). If the Breaching Party disputes in good faith the basis for termination and, on or before the end of the Cure Period, either Party has referred the matter to arbitration pursuant to Section 14.1, then the Cure Period will be tolled and this Agreement will not terminate unless and until the chief executive officer of Licensor and the chief executive officer of Licensee resolve the dispute or the arbitrators issue a final, binding, nonappealable ruling or award upholding such basis for termination (or unless and until the Breaching Party is no longer disputing such basis in good faith, if earlier). If the arbitrators issue a final, binding, nonappealable ruling or award upholding such basis for termination, then the Cure Period will resume, and the Breaching Party will have the remainder of the Cure Period to cure the material breach. If the material breach is so cured within the remainder of the Cure Period, then this Agreement will remain in full force and effect; otherwise, this Agreement will terminate as specified in the Default Notice. If the arbitrators issue a final binding nonappealable ruling rejecting such basis for termination, then this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Licensee is the Breaching Party and the material breach is of Licensee’s obligations to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts in Developing (including obtaining Regulatory Approval) or Commercializing Products with respect to only one Program, then this Agreement may be terminated only with respect to such Program and not in its entirety.

(b)Insolvency. Each Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other Party: (a) if the other Party is declared insolvent or bankrupt by a court of competent jurisdiction; (b) if a voluntary or involuntary petition in bankruptcy is filed in any court of competent jurisdiction against the other Party and such petition is not dismissed within [***] days after filing; (c) if the other Party shall make or execute an assignment of substantially all of its assets for the benefit of creditors; or (d) substantially all of the assets of the other Party are seized or attached and not released within [***] days thereafter. In any event when one Party first becomes aware of the likely occurrence of any Insolvency event in regard to itself, it shall promptly so notify the other Party in sufficient time to give the other Party sufficient notice to protect its interests under this Agreement.

(c)Unilateral Termination by Licensee Upon Written Notice. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Licensee may at any time terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion, on a country-by-country basis, a Program-by-Program basis, or in its entirety, upon [***] days’ prior written notice to Licensor.

(d)Termination by Licensor for Licensee’s Abandonment. At any point in time prior to the achievement of [***], if Licensee has [***], itself or through one or more Affiliates or Third Parties, any and all [***] activities with respect to the Series A Compound or Series A Product for [***], then, provided that such [***], Licensor may provide written notice to Licensee of its intent to terminate this Agreement [***].

The term “including,” “include,” or “includes”, whether or not followed by “without limitation” or “including, but not limited to,” or words of similar import, shall be construed to mean in each case including, without limiting the generality of any description preceding such term. The Parties agree that no meaning should be inferred about the use of “without limitation” or “including, but not limited to” in some instances but not others. Unless the context requires otherwise, (i) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document will 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, supplements or modifications set forth herein or therein), (ii) any reference to any Laws will be construed as referring to such Laws as from time to time enacted, repealed or amended, (iii) any reference to any person will be construed to include the person’s successors and permitted assigns, (iv) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, will be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (v) any reference to the words “mutually agree” or “mutual written agreement” will not impose any obligation on either Party to agree to any terms relating thereto or to engage in

discussions relating to such terms except as such Party may determine in such Party’s sole discretion, (vi) all references to Sections, Exhibits or Schedules will be construed to refer to Sections, Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement, (vii) the word “days” means calendar days unless otherwise specified, and (viii) the words “copy” and “copies” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement include, to the extent available, electronic copies, files or databases containing the information, files, items, documents or materials to which such words apply. The headings of each Article and Section in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to limit or expand on the meaning of the language contained in the particular Article or Section. Each Party represents that it has been represented by legal counsel in connection with this Agreement and acknowledges that it has participated in the drafting hereof. In interpreting and applying the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Parties agree that no presumption will apply against the Party which drafted such terms and provisions.

15.5Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that a Party may make such an assignment without the other Party’s consent to its Affiliates or to a Third Party successor or transferee to all or substantially all of the assets of such Party to which this Agreement relates (such Third Party, an “Acquiror”), whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or other transaction. Any successor or assignee of rights or obligations permitted hereunder will, in writing to the other Party, expressly assume performance of such rights or obligations; provided that in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate, the assigning Party shall remain primarily liable for performance under this Agreement. Any permitted assignment will be binding on the successors of the assigning Party. Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section 15.5 is null, void and of no legal effect.

15.6Performance by Affiliates. Each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any right hereunder through any of its Affiliates. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement and will cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement is a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate.

15.7Further Assurances and Actions. Each Party, upon the request of the other Party, whether before or after the Effective Date and without further consideration, will do, execute, acknowledge, and deliver or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged or delivered all such further acts, deeds, documents, assignments, transfers, conveyances, powers of attorney, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably necessary to effect complete consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to do all such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement. The Parties agree to execute and deliver such other documents, certificates, agreements and other writings in a timely manner and to take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate or implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

15.8Severability. Each of the provisions contained in this Agreement will be severable, and the unenforceability of one will not affect the enforceability of any others or of the remainder of this Agreement. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the Parties will negotiate in good faith with a view to the substitution therefor of a suitable and equitable solution to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid provision; provided, however, that the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be in any way impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the Parties hereto will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

15.9No Waiver. Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver will be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition. The waiver, delay or the failure of any Party to enforce or exercise any term, condition or part of this Agreement at any time or in any one or more instances will not be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term, condition or part, nor will it forfeit any rights, power or privilege to future enforcement thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver that may be given by a Party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, all rights and remedies available to a Party, whether under this Agreement or afforded by Law or otherwise, will be cumulative and not in the alternative to any other rights or remedies that may be available to such Party.

15.10Relationship of the Parties. Neither Party will have any responsibility for the hiring, termination or compensation of the other Party’s employees or for any employee benefits of such employee. No employee or representative of a Party will have any authority to bind or obligate the other Party to this Agreement for any sum or in any manner whatsoever, or to create or impose any contractual or other liability on the other Party without said Party’s written approval. For all purposes, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Licensor’s legal relationship to Licensee under this Agreement will be that of independent contractor and nothing in this Agreement gives either Party the power or authority to act for, bind, or commit the other Party in any way. This Agreement is not a partnership agreement. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to establish a relationship of partners, principal and agent or joint venturers between the Parties or their respective employees, Affiliates or sublicensees. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to create a “separate entity” or “business entity” within the meaning of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code or the regulations thereunder and any foreign equivalents thereto. Neither Licensee nor Licensor will make any statements, representations, or commitments of any kind, or to take any action that is binding on the other, without the prior written consent of the other Party to do so.

15.11English Language. This Agreement was prepared in the English language, which language governs the interpretation of, and any dispute regarding, the terms of this Agreement.

15.12Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which is an original, but all of which together constitute one and the same instrument.

15.13Schedules and Exhibits. The disclosure of any matter in any Section of or on any Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement will only be deemed to be a disclosure for the Section or subsection of this Agreement to which it corresponds in number, unless the applicability of such Schedule or Exhibit to any other Section is readily apparent. The disclosure of any matter in any Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement will expressly not be deemed to (a) constitute an admission by either Party hereto, or (b) imply that any such matter is material for purposes of this Agreement.

15.14Expenses. Each of the Parties will bear its own direct and indirect expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and, except as set forth in this Agreement, the performance of the obligations contemplated hereby and thereby.

15.15Section 365(n). The Parties acknowledge and agree that the licenses granted by the Parties pursuant to Article 2 and all other rights granted under or pursuant to this Agreement are, for purposes of Section 365(n), licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101(35A) of the Bankruptcy Code (or analogous foreign provisions), and that this Agreement is an executory contract governed by Section 365(n) if a bankruptcy proceeding is commenced involving either Party (as licensor hereunder). Licensee, as the licensee of such rights under Article 2, retains and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code. The foregoing provisions of this Section 15.15 are without prejudice to any rights the Parties may have arising under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Laws.
