further Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such countries
until the end of such calendar year;
reduced by:
(C) The sum of the royalty payments due by BMS to
PROGENICS during the comparable period with respect to such
Licensed Product pursuant to Sections 4.2(a)(i) and (ii) of
the Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxxx Sublicense Agreement, Section 4.4(a) of
The Regents Sublicense Agreement and Sections 4.2(a)(i) and

Sales in all countries throughout the Territory first exceed [XXX] in any year.
Royalties shall be paid at the royalty rates set forth in Sections
-23-
6.5(a)(i)(B) and 6.5(a)(ii)(B) (reduced by the amounts set forth in Sections
6.5(a)(i)(C) and 6.5(a)(ii)(C), respectively) for the calendar quarter in which
annual Net Sales in all countries throughout the Territory first exceed [XXX] in

the entire year, BMS shall be entitled to a credit, equal to the amount of such
excess royalties paid, to be applied against [XXX] of accrued royalties until
the entire credit has been used.

Product determined under the formula X(2) x Y(1)/Z;
(C) The royalty rate set forth in Section 6.5(a)(ii)(A)
shall be applied to that amount of Net Sales of such Licensed
Product determined under the formula X(1) x Y(2)/Z; and
(D) The royalty rate set forth in Section 6.5(a)(ii)(B)
shall be applied to that amount of
-24-
Net Sales of such Licensed Product determined under the
formula X(2) x Y(2)/Z;
Where:
X(1) = the smaller of: (i) the actual annual Net Sales of
such Licensed Product throughout the Territory for
such year, or (ii) [XXX]
X(2) = the actual annual Net Sales of such Licensed Product
throughout the Territory for such year in excess of
[XXX]
Y(1) = the annual Net Sales of such Licensed Product for such
year in all countries when Section 6.5(a)(i) applies
Y(2) = the annual Net Sales of such Licensed Product for such
year in all countries when Section 6.5(a)(ii) applies
Z = the annual Net Sales of such Licensed Product for such
year in all countries in the Territory
(b) With respect to the MGV Vaccine and any other Licensed Products:
(i) With respect to those countries in the Territory where
such Licensed Product is not a Generic Product:

Licensed Product pursuant to Sections 4.2(b)(i), (ii) and (iv)
of the Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxxx Sublicense Agreement, Section 4.4(b)
of The Regents Sublicense Agreement and Sections 4.2(b)(i) and
(ii) of the Aquila Sublicense Agreement.
(ii) With respect to those countries in the Territory
where such Licensed Product is a Generic Product:
(A) [XXX] of the Net Sales of such Licensed Product in
such countries for any calendar year;
reduced by:
-25-
(B) the sum of the royalty payments due by BMS to
PROGENICS during the comparable period with respect to such
Licensed Product pursuant to Section 4.2(b)(iii) of the
Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxxx Sublicense Agreement and Section 4.2(b)(iii)
of the Aquila Sublicense Agreement.
(c) The royalty rates applicable to Generic Products pursuant to
Sections 6.5(a)(ii) and 6.5(b)(ii), respectively, shall apply to Net Sales in
any country commencing with the calendar quarter during which such Licensed
Product first becomes a Generic Product in such country.

among The Regents, PROGENICS and BMS; and (iii) Section 3 of that certain side
letter agreement proposed to be entered into among Aquila, PROGENICS and BMS;
and
(b) The amount of any credit to which BMS is entitled pursuant to
Section 8.3(c).
6.7 Obligation to Pay Royalties. The obligation to pay royalties to
PROGENICS under this Section 6 is imposed only once with respect to the same
unit of Licensed Product regardless of the number of Licensed Patents pertaining
thereto. BMS shall only be entitled to a credit against royalties or a reduction
of the royalty rate once with respect to any Licensed Product in any country
pursuant to any provision in this Agreement. There shall be no obligation to pay
royalties to PROGENICS under this Section 6 on sales of Licensed Products among
BMS, its Affiliates and Sub-sublicensees, but in such instances the obligation
to pay royalties shall arise upon the sale by BMS, its Affiliates or
Sub-sublicensees to Third Parties. Payments due under this Section 6 shall be
deemed to accrue when Licensed Products are shipped or billed, whichever event
shall first occur. In the instance where BMS, its Affiliates or Sub-sublicensees
use the Licensed Product or provide it as part of some other service or product,
a royalty shall be due to PROGENICS at the time such Licensed Product is used or
provided based on a Net Sales amount equal to the price at which BMS or its
Affiliate or Sub-sublicensee sells such Licensed Product to Third Parties in the
country in which the Licensed Product was used or provided.

and the amount of royalties due on such Net Sales and, with respect to the last
calendar quarter of each year, such report shall include the calculation of the
adjustment referred to in Section 6.5(a)(iii).
7.2 Mode of Payment; Taxes. All payments due under this Agreement shall be
paid by wire transfer of funds to an account at PROGENICS's designated bank in
New York, New York, and shall be paid in U.S. Dollars, calculated at BMS's
customary internal corporate monthly exchange rates for the last month of the
calendar quarter for which remittance is made for royalties. Such payments shall
be free of any taxes, charges, or remittance fees, except for income tax levied
upon or required to be withheld and paid by BMS, its Affiliates or its
Sub-sublicensees for the account of PROGENICS. BMS shall provide PROGENICS
appropriate receipts of payment of such withholding taxes or other proof
thereof. For each month and each currency, BMS's customary internal corporate
monthly exchange rate shall equal the arithmetic average of the daily exchange
rates (obtained as described below) during the period from (i) the 20th day of
the preceding month (or, if such 20th day is not a business day, the immediately
preceding business day) through (ii) the 19th day of the current month (or, if
such 19th day is not a business day, the immediately preceding business day);
each daily exchange rate shall be obtained from the Reuters Daily Rate Report or
The Wall Street Journal, Eastern U.S. Edition, or, if not so available, as
furnished by BMS's local Affiliates.
7.3 Records Retention. BMS and its Affiliates and Sub-sublicensees shall
keep accurate records of all operations affecting payments hereunder, and shall
permit PROGENICS or its duly authorized agent to inspect all such records and to
make copies of or extracts from such records during regular business hours
throughout the term of this Agreement and for a reasonable period of not less
than 3 years thereafter.
7.4 Audit Request. At the request and expense of PROGENICS, BMS and its
Affiliates and Sub-sublicensees shall permit PROGENICS or an independent,
certified public accountant appointed by PROGENICS and reasonably acceptable to
BMS, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, to examine those records as
may be necessary to: (i) determine the correctness of any report or payment made
under this Agreement; or (ii) obtain all information as to Net Sales and the
royalties payable for any calendar quarter. If an accountant is used, said
accountant shall not disclose to PROGENICS any information other than
information relating to said
-27-
reports, royalties, and payments. Results of any such examination shall be made
available to both Parties.
7.5 Cost of Audit. PROGENICS shall bear the full cost of the performance
of any such audit except as hereinafter set forth. If, as a result of any
inspection of the books and records of BMS, its Affiliates or its
Sub-sublicensees, it is shown that BMS's payments under this Agreement were less
than the amount which should have been paid, then BMS shall make all payments
required to be made to eliminate any discrepancy revealed by said inspection
within 30 days after PROGENICS's demand therefor, plus interest at the prime
rate from the date payment should have been made. Furthermore, if the payments
were less than the amount which should have been paid by an amount in excess of
five percent of the payments actually made during the period in question, BMS
shall also reimburse PROGENICS for the costs of such audit in addition to the
payment required to be made to eliminate any discrepancy.
7.6 No Non-Monetary Consideration for Sales. Without the prior written
consent of PROGENICS, BMS and its Affiliates and Sub-sublicensees shall not
accept or solicit any non-monetary consideration in the sale of Licensed
Products other than as would be reflected in Net Sales. The use by BMS and its
Affiliates and Sub-sublicensees of commercially reasonable amounts of Licensed
Products for clinical trials and promotional sampling shall not violate this
provision.
8. INDEMNIFICATION; INFRINGEMENT.
8.1 Indemnification.
(a) PROGENICS shall defend, indemnify and hold BMS and its
Affiliates and Sub-sublicensees, and each of their respective directors,
officers and employees, harmless from and against any and all claims, suits or
demands for liability, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including the costs
and expenses of attorneys and other professionals) arising out of Third Party
claims or suits resulting from a breach of PROGENICS's representations and
warranties set forth in Section 2, or from the performance of the PROGENICS
Clinical Trials.
(b) If required by Section 10.4(g), PROGENICS shall defend,
indemnify and hold BMS and its Affiliates and Sub-sublicensees, and each of
their respective directors, officers and employees, harmless from and against
any and all claims, suits or demands for liability, damages, losses, costs and
expenses (including the cost and expenses of attorneys and other professionals)
arising out of PROGENICS' use of any data, information or government
registrations returned or provided to PROGENICS pursuant to Section 10.4(g),
including any use by any subsequent sublicensee of PROGENICS, or the
development, manufacture, marketing, use and/or sale of products or services
from any of the foregoing.
-28-
(c) BMS shall defend, indemnify and hold PROGENICS, its Affiliates,
and their respective directors, officers and employees, harmless from and
against any and all claims, suits or demands for liability, damages, losses,
costs and expenses (including the costs and expenses of attorneys and other
professionals) arising out of: (i) Third Party claims or suits resulting from
(1) a breach of BMS's representations and warranties set forth in Section 2, (2)
the performance of the BMS Clinical Trials, (3) the manufacture, packaging, use,
sale, rental or lease of Licensed Products, even if altered or used for a
purpose not intended, or (4) the use of Licensed Patents or Licensed Technical
Information by BMS, its Affiliates or its Sub-sublicensees or its (or their)
customers and any representation made or warranty given by BMS, its Affiliates
or its Sub-sublicensees with respect to Licensed Products, Licensed Patents or
Licensed Technical Information, or (ii) claims or suits by Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxxx, The
Regents and/or Aquila against PROGENICS as a result of BMS's actions under this
Agreement.
(d) As the Parties intend complete indemnification, all costs and
expenses of enforcing this Section 8.1 shall also be reimbursed by the
indemnifying Party.
8.2 Conditions to Indemnification. A person or entity that intends to
claim indemnification under Section 8.1 (the "Indemnitee") shall promptly notify
the other Party (the "Indemnitor") of any loss, claim, damage, liability or
action in respect of which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification,
and the Indemnitor shall assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the Indemnitee whether or not such claim is rightfully brought;
provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnitor if Indemnitor
does not assume the defense, or if representation of such Indemnitee by the
counsel retained by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or
potential differing interests between such Indemnitee and any other person
represented by such counsel in such proceedings. The indemnity agreement in
Section 8.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim,
damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent
of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably.
The failure to deliver notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after
the commencement of any such action, only if prejudicial to its ability to
defend such action, shall relieve such Indemnitor of any liability to the
Indemnitee under Section 8.1, but the omission so to deliver notice to the
Indemnitor will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any
Indemnitee otherwise than under Section 8.1. The Indemnitee under Section 8.1,
its officers, directors, employees and agents, shall cooperate fully with the
Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigations of any action,
claim or liability covered by this indemnification.
-29-
8.3 Infringement Action by Third Parties.
(a) In the event of the institution of any suit by a Third Party
against BMS for patent infringement involving the manufacture, sale,
distribution or marketing of any Licensed Products in the Territory and such
infringement claim is a result of the use of the PROGENICS Technical
Information, BMS shall promptly notify PROGENICS in writing of such suit.
PROGENICS may defend such action at PROGENICS's sole expense on behalf of BMS
with attorneys of its own selection, and BMS hereby agrees to assist and
cooperate with PROGENICS, at its own expense, to the extent necessary in the
defense of such suit. In such event (i.e., where PROGENICS has elected to defend
in accordance with the preceding sentence), PROGENICS shall bear the full costs
and expenses of such defense (including fees of attorneys and other
professionals) and, in any event, whether or not PROGENICS has elected to defend
such action, PROGENICS shall assume full responsibility for the payment of any
award for damages, or any amount due pursuant to any settlement entered into by
PROGENICS with such Third Party, which PROGENICS shall have the right to do in
its sole discretion. In addition, BMS shall be entitled to retain its own
counsel in such proceedings, at BMS's sole expense. During the pendency of such
action, BMS shall continue to make all payments due under this Agreement.
(b) If PROGENICS does not commence a defense of such action with 90
days after receiving notice thereof, BMS shall have the right to defend such
suit at its own expense, and PROGENICS hereby agrees to assist and cooperate
with BMS, at its own expense, to the extent necessary in the defense of such
suit. In such event, BMS shall not enter into any settlement arrangement or
other amicable arrangement without the prior written consent of PROGENICS.
During the pendency of such action, BMS shall continue to make all payments due
under this Agreement.
(c) If as a result of any judgment, award, decree or settlement
resulting from an action instituted by a Third Party, BMS is required to pay a
royalty to such Third Party, BMS shall continue to pay the royalties for such
Licensed Product in the country which is the subject of such action, [XXX].
9. CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-USE.
9.1 Notification. Both Parties recognize that each may wish to publish the
results of their work relating to the Compounds and the Licensed Products.
However, both Parties also recognize the importance of acquiring patent
protection. Consequently,
-30-
subject to any applicable laws or regulations obligating either Party to do
otherwise (including any laws or regulations applicable to any of the
cooperative research groups conducting any of the PROGENICS Clinical Trials, to
the extent applicable to the Parties), any proposed publication by either Party
shall comply with this Section 9. At least 60 days before a manuscript is to be
submitted to a publisher, the publishing Party will provide the other Party with
a copy of the manuscript. If the publishing Party wishes to make an oral
presentation, it will provide the other Party with a copy of the abstract (if
one is submitted) at least 40 days before it is to be submitted. The publishing
Party will also provide to the other Party a copy of the text of the
presentation, including all slides, posters, and any other visual aids, at least
40 days before the presentation is made.
9.2 Review of Proposed Publications. The receiving Party will review the
manuscript, abstract, text or any other material provided under Section 9.1 to
determine if patentable subject matter is disclosed. The reviewing Party will
notify the publishing Party within 30 days of receipt of the proposed
publication if the reviewing Party, in good faith, determines that patentable
subject matter is or may be disclosed, or if the reviewing Party, in good faith,
believes Confidential Information or proprietary information is or may be
disclosed. If it is determined by the reviewing Party that patent applications
should be filed, the publishing Party shall delay its publication or
presentation for a period not to exceed 90 days from the reviewing Party's
receipt of the proposed publication to allow time for the filing of patent
applications covering patentable subject matter. In the event that the delay
needed to complete the filing of any necessary patent application will exceed
the 90 day period, the Parties will discuss the need for obtaining an extension
of the publication delay beyond the 90 day period. If it is determined in good
faith by the reviewing Party that Confidential Information or proprietary
information is being disclosed, the Parties will consult in good faith to arrive
at an agreement on mutually acceptable modifications to the proposed publication
to avoid such disclosure.
9.3 Confidentiality and Non-use; Exceptions. Except to the extent
expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed in writing, the
Parties agree that, for the term of this Agreement and for five (5) years
thereafter the receiving Party and its Affiliates and Sub-sublicensees shall
keep, and shall ensure that its officers, directors, employees and agents keep,
completely confidential and shall not publish or otherwise disclose and shall
not use for any purpose any Confidential Information furnished to it by the
other Party or its Affiliates or Sub-sublicensees or developed under the
PROGENICS Clinical Trials, the BMS Clinical Trials or otherwise pursuant to this
Agreement.
9.4 Authorized Disclosure. Each Party may disclose the other's data and
information, including Confidential Information, to its Affiliates, licensors
and Sub-sublicensees, and its and
-31-
their officers, directors, employees and outside consultants, as reasonably
necessary, and to others to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary
in filing or prosecuting patent applications, prosecuting or defending
litigation, complying with applicable governmental laws and regulations,
undertaking basic research with outside collaborators, or conducting preclinical
or clinical trials, provided that if a Party is required to make any such
disclosure of the other Party's Confidential Information it will, except where
impracticable for necessary disclosures, for example to physicians conducting
studies or to health authorities, give reasonable advance notice to the other
Party of such disclosure requirement and, except to the extent inappropriate in
the case of patent applications, will use its best efforts to secure
confidential treatment of such information required to be disclosed.
10. TERMINATION.
10.1 Term. This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date of this
Agreement and, unless sooner terminated as provided hereunder, shall terminate
as follows:
(a) As to each Licensed Product in each country in the Territory,
upon the later of: (i) 15 years from the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed
Product in such country, or (ii) the expiration of the last Valid Claim to
expire that covers the manufacture, use or sale of such Licensed Product in such
country.
(b) This Agreement shall terminate in its entirety upon its
expiration with respect to all Licensed Products in all countries in the
Territory pursuant to Section 10.1(a).
10.2 Breach.
(a) Failure by either Party to comply with any of the material
obligations of such Party contained in this Agreement shall entitle the other
Party to give notice to the defaulting Party specifying the nature of the
default and requiring it to cure such default. If such default is not cured
within 60 days after the receipt of such notice (or, if such default cannot be
cured within such 60 day period, if the defaulting Party does not commence and
diligently continue actions to cure such default), the other Party shall be
entitled, without prejudice to any of its other rights conferred on it by this
Agreement, in addition to any other remedies available to it by law or in
equity, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to take effect
immediately. The right to terminate this Agreement, as hereinabove provided,
shall not be affected in any way by the other Party's waiver or failure to take
action with respect to any previous default.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 10.2(a), in the event that BMS fails
materially to satisfy its development and/or marketing obligations with respect
to any Licensed Product in any country in
-32-
the Territory under this Agreement, the Xxxxx-Xxxxxxxxx Sublicense Agreement,
The Regents Sublicense Agreement or the Aquila Sublicense Agreement, such
failure shall not be deemed a breach of a material obligation of BMS pursuant to

PROGENICS pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the MGV Vaccine, including,
without limitation, any obligation to make the milestone payments set forth in
Section 6.4 or to continue to fund any clinical trials or ongoing development
thereof, other than to pay the close-out costs associated therewith pursuant to
Section 4.2. Such termination shall be without prejudice to the rights of BMS to
develop the GMK Vaccine or any other Licensed Product pursuant to
-33-
this Agreement. If within such 90-day period BMS does not make such termination,
it shall be required to make the milestone payment required under Section
6.4(a).
