11.2 By G1. G1 shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Licensee, its Affiliates, and their directors, officers, employees and agents (individually and collectively, the “Licensee Indemnitee(s)”) from and against all Losses to the extent arising from (a) [***] (b) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of G1 or its Affiliates, (c) G1’s breach of any of its representations or warranties made in or pursuant to this Agreement or any G1 covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, or (d) the failure of G1 or its Affiliates to abide by any Applicable Laws, in each case of subsections (a) through (d) above, except to the extent such Losses arise out of any of a Licensee Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or failure to abide by any Applicable Laws or are otherwise Losses for which Licensee is responsible pursuant to Section 11.1 above.

11.3 Indemnification Procedure. If either Party is seeking indemnification under Section 11.1 or 11.2 (the “Indemnified Party”), it shall inform in writing the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the claim giving rise to the obligation to indemnify pursuant to such Section [***] after receiving written notice of the claim (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure or delay by an Indemnified Party to give such notice of a claim shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure or delay to give notice). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume sole control of the defense and settlement of any such claim for which it is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party’s insurer as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, and at the Indemnifying Party’s cost and expense.

If the Parties cannot agree as to the application of Sections 11.1 or 11.2 as to any claim, pending resolution of the dispute pursuant to Article 14, the Parties may conduct separate defenses of such claims, with each Party retaining the right to claim indemnification from the other Party in accordance with Sections 11.1 or 11.2 upon resolution of the underlying claim.

Each Indemnified Party shall take and shall procure that its Affiliates take all such reasonable steps and action as are reasonably necessary or as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require in order to mitigate any claims (or potential losses or damages) subject to indemnification under this Article 11. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to relieve any Party of any common law or other duty to mitigate any losses incurred by it.

11.5 Limitation of Liability. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 11.5 IS INTENDED TO OR SHALL LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF ANY PARTY UNDER SECTION 11.1 OR 11.2, OR DAMAGES AVAILABLE FOR A PARTY’S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER RELATING TO CONFIDENTIALITY, OR A PARTY’S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTIONS 2.8 OR 10.4(a).

12.2 Patent Prosecution.

(a) G1 Patents.

(i) As between the Parties, G1 shall have the sole right to control the Patent Prosecution of all G1 Patents in the Territory using counsel selected by G1 and reasonably acceptable to Licensee.

In addition, through the Patent Working Group, G1 shall provide Licensee with drafts of all proposed material filings and correspondence to any patent authority in the Territory in connection with the Patent Prosecution of the G1 Patents for Licensee’s review and comment prior to the submission of such proposed filings and correspondence. G1 shall consider in good faith all comments made by Licensee (directly or through the Patent Working Group) with respect to Patent Prosecution of the G1 Patents; provided that G1 will retain sole discretion over the final content of all such proposed filings and correspondence. In the event that G1 intends to cease or ceases the Patent Prosecution of any G1 Patent in any Country, G1 shall provide reasonable prior written notice to Licensee of such intention or cessation (which notice shall be given no later than [***] prior to the next deadline for any action that must be taken with respect to any such G1 Patent in the relevant patent office in the Territory). In such case, Licensee shall have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion upon delivery of written notice to G1, (y) with respect to Product-Specific Patents, to assume the sole control and direction of Patent Prosecution of such Product-Specific Patent in such Country, at [***] and (z) with respect to any other G1 Patent, to cause G1 to continue Patent Prosecution of such G1 Patent in such Country, [***].

In addition, with respect to any G1 Patent proposed to be filed by G1 in the Territory after the Effective Date that would or could contain any Product-Specific Claim, G1 shall not, and shall instruct its patent counsel to not, include in any such G1 Patent filing any other claim or subject matter that would cause such G1 Patent as filed, or as may be issued, not to be a Product-Specific Patent.

(b) Cooperation. Each Party shall provide the other Party, at such other Party’s request and expense, all reasonable assistance and cooperation in the Patent Prosecution efforts under this Section 12.2, including providing any necessary powers of attorney and executing any other required documents or instruments for such prosecution.

12.3 Patent Enforcement.

(a) Notice. Each Party shall notify the other within [***] of becoming aware of any alleged or threatened infringement by a Third Party of (i) any of the G1 Patents in the Territory or (ii) any of the Licensee Patents in the Territory, and any related declaratory judgment or equivalent action alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any G1 Patents and Licensee Patents (an “Infringement”); except that each Party shall notify the other within [***] of becoming aware of any alleged or threatened Infringement that arises as a result of the making, using, offering to sell, selling or importing of any Generic Product in the Territory in the Field (a “Product Infringement”). For clarity, Infringement excludes any adversarial Patent Prosecution proceedings.

(b) Notification of Paragraph IV Patent Certification. Each Party will promptly notify and provide the other Party with copies of any notice of a Paragraph IV Patent Certification (including any associated documents) by a Third Party filing an Abbreviated New Drug Application, or any other similar patent certification by a Third Party, and any foreign equivalent thereof in the Territory. Such notification and copies will be provided to the other Party within [***] after receipt of such notification.

(c) Enforcement Right. As between the Parties:

(i) G1 shall have the sole right, in its sole discretion, to bring and control any legal action to enforce (A) the G1 Patents (other than Product-Specific Patents) against any Infringement in the Territory and (B) the G1 Patents (including Product-Specific Patents) against any Infringement in the Field in the Territory that is not Product Infringement, in each case at its own expense as it determines appropriate, provided that G1, through the Patent Working Group, will provide Licensee with prompt notice of any such legal action, and reasonably consider Licensee’s comments with respect thereto. Licensee shall, (1) at G1’s expense, provide reasonable support for such enforcement action to G1 upon G1’s reasonable request; and (2) at Licensee’s expense, have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in such enforcement action at its sole option using counsel of its choosing.

Execution Version

If Licensee has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.2(b)(i) (subject to the applicable cure periods set forth in Section 13.2(b)(i)) for G1’s uncured material breach of Section 2.8(b), then in lieu of terminating this Agreement for such breach, Licensee may, as an alternative remedy (and as Licensee’s sole and exclusive remedy for such material breach), retain the License and all other rights granted under this Agreement, [***] except that the [***] under Article 8, in each case, [***]; provided, however, that Licensee may not exercise such alternative remedy if such breach is due to a failure by G1 to ensure that any Third Party Licensee does not engage in (independently or for or with any Third Party) any development or commercialization of any G1 Competing Product without the prior written consent of Licensee, as further described in Section 2.8(b). For the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth in this Section 13.5, if Licensee exercises the alternative remedy set forth above in this Section 13.5, then all rights and obligations of both Parties under this Agreement will continue unaffected, unless and until this Agreement subsequently expires or is terminated by either Party pursuant to this Article 13.

15.5 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or statute) (excluding claims and causes of action relating to the scope, validity or enforceability of Patent Rights) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the breach thereof (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), shall be governed by, and enforced in accordance with, the federal laws of the United States and the internal laws of the State of New York, including its statutes of limitations, but without regard to conflict of law principles thereof.

15.6 Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, together with the Schedules hereto, contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the collaboration and the licenses granted hereunder. Any other express or implied agreements and understandings, negotiations, writings and commitments, either oral or written, in respect to the collaboration and the licenses granted hereunder are superseded by the terms of this Agreement.

The Parties agree that, effective as of the Effective Date, that the Existing Confidentiality Agreement shall be superseded by this Agreement, and that disclosures made prior to the Effective Date pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement shall be subject to the confidentiality and non-use provisions of this Agreement. The foregoing shall not be interpreted as a waiver of any remedies available to either Party or its Affiliates as a result of any breach, prior to the Effective Date, by the other Party or its Affiliates of such Party’s or its Affiliate’s obligations pursuant to the Existing Confidentiality Agreement.

15.8 Independent Contractors. It is expressly agreed that G1 and Licensee shall be independent contractors and that the relationship between the Parties shall not constitute a partnership, joint venture or agency. Neither G1 nor Licensee shall have the authority to make any statements, representations or commitments of any kind, or to take any action that is binding on the other Party without the prior written consent of the other Party.

15.9 Waiver. Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective only if in writing and signed by G1 and Licensee. No express or implied waiver by a Party of any default under this Agreement will be a waiver of a future or subsequent default. The failure or delay of any Party in exercising any rights under this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of any such right, and any single or partial exercise of any particular right by any Party will not exhaust the same or constitute a waiver of any other right provided in this Agreement.

15.10 Waiver of Rule of Construction. Each Party has had the opportunity to consult with counsel in connection with the review, drafting and negotiation of this Agreement. Accordingly, the rule of construction that any ambiguity in this Agreement shall be construed against the drafting Party shall not apply.

15.12 Business Day Requirements. In the event that any notice or other action or omission is required to be taken by a Party under this Agreement on a day that is not a Business Day then such notice or other action or omission shall be deemed to be required to be taken on the next occurring Business Day.

15.13 Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments, and to do all such other acts, as necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

15.14 Construction. Except where the context expressly requires otherwise, (a) the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to encompass references to either or both genders, and the use of the singular shall be deemed to include the plural (and vice versa), (b) the words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”, (c) the word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”, (d) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein 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, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (e) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include the Person’s successors and assigns, (f) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (g) all references herein to Sections or Schedules shall be construed to refer to Sections or Schedules of this Agreement, and references to this Agreement include all Schedules hereto, (h) the word “notice” means notice in writing (whether or not specifically stated) and shall include notices, consents, approvals and other written communications contemplated under this Agreement, (i) provisions that require that a Party or the Parties “agree”, “consent” or “approve” or the like shall require that such agreement, consent or approval be specific and in writing, whether by written agreement, letter, approved minutes or otherwise (but excluding e-mail and instant messaging), (j) references to any specific law, rule or regulation, or Section, section or other division thereof, shall be deemed to include the then-current amendments thereto or any replacement or successor law, rule or regulation thereof, and (k) the term “or” shall be interpreted in the inclusive sense commonly associated with the term “and/or.”

15.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Each Party shall be entitled to rely on the delivery of executed facsimile copies of counterpart execution pages of this Agreement and such facsimile copies shall be legally effective to create a valid and binding agreement among the Parties.

15.16 Language. This Agreement is in the English language only, which language shall be controlling in all respects, and all versions hereof in any other language shall be for accommodation only and shall not be binding upon the Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, all notices to be made or given pursuant to this Agreement, and any dispute proceeding related to or arising hereunder, shall be in the English language.
