CREDIT FACILITY
Section 2.01 Loan.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including Section 3.01(a)), the Lenders, severally and not jointly, agree to make, on the Closing Date, the Loan to the Borrower in an aggregate original principal amount of $150,000,000.00, which such original principal amount shall be allocated among the Lenders in accordance with Exhibit A hereto.
Section 2.02 Manner of Borrowing.
The Lenders shall disburse the Loan on the Closing Date no later than 12:00 PM on such date in Dollars in funds immediately available to the Borrower (in accordance with the allocations set forth in Exhibit A hereto) by wire transfer to an account of the Borrower in the United States as shall have been specified in a prior written notice to the Lenders.
Section 2.03 Interest.
(a)Interest. The Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof (including principal consisting of capitalized interest on the Loan) during each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate as determined on the Interest Rate Determination Date falling on the commencement of the applicable Interest Period. The Collateral Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the Interest Rate on each Interest Rate Determination Date.
(b)Payment. Interest in respect of the Loan shall be payable in cash in Dollars quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) any other date on which the Loan or any portion thereof shall be due (whether by reason of notice of prepayment or acceleration or otherwise), but only to the extent then accrued on the amount then so due; provided, however, that if on any Quarterly Payment Date the Available Amount available for the payment of accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Loan as determined pursuant to Section 2.04 is insufficient to make such interest payment in full in cash on any such Quarterly Payment Date, the amount of any such shortfall shall instead be “paid-in- kind” by being capitalized and added to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan on such Quarterly Payment Date (such that the same shortfall amount will no longer constitute accrued and unpaid interest but instead will be part of the principal of the Loan for all purposes), (each, a “PIK Payment”). Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes hereof, references to “principal amount” of the Loan shall refer to the face amount of the Loan and shall include any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Loan as a result of a PIK Payment.
(c)Computation of Interest. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest for any period, including any Interest Period, shall be calculated from and including the first day thereof to but excluding the last day thereof.
14
(d)Maximum Interest Rate. Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall require the Borrower at any time to pay interest at a rate exceeding the Maximum Permissible Rate. If interest payable by the Borrower on any date would exceed the maximum amount permitted by the Maximum Permissible Rate, such interest payment shall automatically be reduced to such maximum permitted amount, and interest for any subsequent period, to the extent less than the maximum amount permitted for such period by the Maximum Permissible Rate, shall be increased by the unpaid amount of such reduction. Any interest actually received for any period in excess of such maximum amount permitted for such period shall be deemed to have been applied as a prepayment of the Loan (but without any prepayment penalty).
Section 2.04 Repayment. The Loan shall be due and payable in quarterly installments on each Quarterly Payment Date, in an amount equal to (such amount being referred to as the “Available Amount”): (a) for each Interest Period occurring prior to January 1, 2017, $0, (b) for each Interest Period occurring on or after January 1, 2017 and ending prior to January 1, 2018, the lesser of (i) fifty percent (50%) of the Adjusted Post-Closing Royalty Amounts paid under the License Agreements during such Interest Period and (ii) the Quarterly Cap applicable to the Adjusted Post-Closing Royalty Amounts paid under the License Agreements during the calendar quarter to which such Quarterly Cap applies (regardless of when earned or accrued) and received during such Interest Period; and (c) for each Interest Period ending on or after January 1, 2018, the lesser of (i) one hundred percent (100%) of the Adjusted Post-Closing Royalty Amounts paid under the License Agreements during such calendar quarter and (ii) the Quarterly Cap applicable to the Adjusted Post-Closing Royalty Amounts paid under the License Agreements during the calendar quarter to which such Quarterly Cap applies (regardless of when earned or accrued) and received during such Interest Period; less, in each case, the portion of the Available Amount applied to interest as hereinafter provided in this Section 2.04. The Available Amount shall be applied on each such Quarterly Payment Date as follows: (i) first, to the payment of any unpaid and uncapitalized interest accrued during prior Interest Periods, if any, (ii) second, to the payment of interest accrued during the current Interest Period, and (iii) third, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of Loan. The outstanding principal amount of the Loan (including principal consisting of capitalized interest on the Loan) shall mature and shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date (together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon), provided, however, in the event any such principal or interest remains outstanding on the Maturity Date following the occurrence of the License Termination Date, the Borrower’s obligation to repay such principal and interest shall be limited to the Available Amount.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and the Borrower confirm that the failure of the Borrower to repay the Loan on the Maturity Date, or any other date, resulting from the failure of Baxalta to make payments under the Baxalta License Agreement or from the failure of Roche to make payments under the Roche License Agreement, for any reason other than a breach or default by Halozyme of any of its obligations under the Baxalta License Agreement or the Roche License Agreement, respectively, shall not constitute a breach of Section 2.03(b) or this Section 2.4 or constitute an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a).
Section 2.05 Voluntary Prepayments. At any time after January 1, 2019, the Borrower may prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loan in whole or in part in increments of no less than $25,000,000 upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Lenders (which notice may be by telephone, if confirmed in writing immediately thereafter, facsimile, e- mail or other written communication). All prepayments by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to the date of payment in full, which unpaid interest, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any such interest that has already been capitalized and added to the then-outstanding principal amount of the Loan in accordance with Section
15
2.03(b). Any prepayments of the Loan by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall, in each case, be accompanied by payment of the applicable Prepayment Premium.

Upon a Change in Control, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding amounts of the Loan in full, without any notice from or other action by Lenders, no later than ten (10) Business Days after the consummation of such Change in Control. Prepayment by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to the date of payment in full, which unpaid interest, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any such interest that has already been capitalized and added to the then-outstanding principal amount of the Loan in accordance with Section 2.03(b).

All payments due to each Lender under the Loan Documents shall be made by Borrower without any deduction or withholding for any Tax. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Borrower) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower to each applicable Lender shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.09(c)) the recipient Lender receives an amount equal to the sum that it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

17
(B)a Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Borrower) on or prior to the Closing Date or later date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), whichever of the following is applicable:

Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (e), in no event

will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (e) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(f)Extension of Payment Dates. Whenever any payment to the Lenders under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of acceleration) on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next succeeding Business Day. If the date any payment under the Loan Documents is due is extended (whether by operation of any Loan Document, Applicable Law or otherwise), such payment shall bear interest for such extended time at the Interest Rate applicable hereunder.
(g) Prepayment Premium. Any prepayments of the Loan by the Borrower (i) after January 1, 2019 pursuant to Section 2.05, (ii) as a result of a Change in Control pursuant to Section 2.06, (iii) as a result of the acceleration of the Maturity Date pursuant to Section 7.02(a) or (iv) as a result of any other circumstance where the Borrower violates its obligations under this Agreement to avoid payment of such Prepayment Premium, shall, in any such case, be accompanied by payment of the applicable Prepayment Premium.
Section 2.10 Changes In Law. If at any time any Lender determines that any Regulatory Change Enacted after the Agreement Date makes it unlawful or impossible for such Lender to maintain the Loan, such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of any circumstance that would make the provisions of this Section 2.10 applicable and each of such Lender, Borrower and Halozyme agree, if legally possible and commercially practicable under the circumstances, to promptly negotiate in good faith such amendments or other modifications to the Loan, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, as the case may be, so that it is no longer unlawful or impossible for such Lender to maintain the Loan. Each Lender agrees to pay (within five (5) days after the receipt of written notice from Borrower and Halozyme) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Borrower and Halozyme (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of Borrower’s and Halozyme’s legal counsel) reasonably incurred by Borrower and Halozyme in connection with any such negotiations, amendments or modifications involving such Lender.
Section 2.11 Additional Consideration. As additional consideration for the making of the Loan, Borrower shall pay to each Lender on the Closing Date an amount equal to one percent (1.00%) of the original principal amount of the Loan allocated to such Lender in accordance with Exhibit A hereto (the “Additional Consideration”).
Section 2.12 Pro Rata Treatment.
(a)All payments on account of principal of or interest of the Loan, fees or any other Secured Obligations owing to or for the account of any one or more Lenders shall be apportioned ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the amounts of such principal, interest, fees or other Secured Obligations owed to them respectively.
(b)If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of Set-off (including in accordance with Section 7.02(c)) or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on the Loan or other Secured Obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Loan and accrued interest thereon or other such Secured Obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as
19
provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (i) notify the other Lenders of such fact and (ii) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loan and such other Secured Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on the Loan and other amounts owing them; provided that (A) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, then such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (B) the provisions of this Section 2.12(b) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its portion of the Loan evidenced by its Note to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or its Affiliates (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.12(b) shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of Set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a Set-off to which this Section 2.12(b) applies, then such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 2.12(b) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
Section 2.13 AHYDO. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, commencing with the first “accrual period” (as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1272-1(b)(1)(ii)) ending after the fifth anniversary of the Agreement Date, and each accrual period thereafter, the Borrower shall, in respect of the Loan, pay in cash, on or before the end of such accrual period, both the stated interest due and payable as set forth in Section 2.03 and any accrued and unpaid “original issue discount” (determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.1273-1 and 1.1272-1 and taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, the Additional Consideration) with respect to the Loan if, but only to the extent that, the aggregate amount of such original issue discount that has accrued and has not been paid in cash from the Agreement Date through the end of such accrual period (treating any payments made pursuant to this Article II as a payment of interest and original issue discount to the full extent required under Treasury Regulation Sections 1.446-2(e)(l) and 1.1275-2(a)) exceeds the product of the “issue price” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1273-2(a)(1)) of the Loan and the “yield to maturity” (determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1272-1(b) and taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, the Additional Consideration) on the Loan.

The Required Lenders may declare all or any part of the Loan (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the applicable Prepayment Premium) immediately due and payable, whereupon the Loan (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the applicable Prepayment Premium) shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice or legal process of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower (provided, however, that all Loan (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the applicable Prepayment Premium) shall automatically become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(i) with respect to the Borrower);
(b)Other Remedies. The Collateral Agent may with the approval of the Required Lenders and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders pursue all other remedies available to it by contract, at law or in equity, including its rights under the Loan Documents.
(c)Right of Set-off. Each Lender may, and is hereby authorized by the Borrower to, at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, without advance notice to the Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower), Set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and any other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any or all of the Secured Obligations now or hereafter existing, whether or not such obligations have matured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower, each other Lender and the Collateral Agent after any such Set-off or application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such Set-off and application.
(d)Rights and Remedies Cumulative; Non-Waiver; etc. The enumeration of the Collateral Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise by the Collateral Agent or the Lenders of any right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies, all of which shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder, under the other Loan Documents or under any other agreement between the Borrower and the Collateral Agent or the Lenders or that may now or hereafter exist in law or in equity or by suit or otherwise. No delay or failure to take action on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Lenders in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver
39
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. No course of dealing between the Loan Parties and the Collateral Agent or the Lenders or their respective agents or employees shall be effective to change, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default.
(e)Notices to Lenders. The Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Lenders any notice of acceleration received by it pursuant to Section 7.02(a) and written approval or written direction received by it pursuant to Section 7.02(b); provided, that any delivery of or failure to deliver any such notice, approval or direction shall not otherwise alter or effect the rights of the Lenders or the Collateral Agent under this Section 7.02 or Section 8.04. In addition, to the extent the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders deliver any notices to the Borrower with regards to the failure by any Loan Party to perform any covenant, restriction or agreement contained in any Loan Document, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, will also deliver such notice to the other Lenders on or about the same time such notice is provided to the Borrower; provided, that the delivery of or failure to deliver such notice to the other Lenders shall not in any way effect the obligations of the Borrower, or the rights of the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders, in respect of such notice.
(f)Prepayment Premium. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if all or any part of the Loan shall be repaid prior to the repayment schedule required by Section 2.04 or prior to maturity (including without limitation by acceleration pursuant to Sections 2.05, 2.06 and 7.02(a)), the Prepayment Premium shall become due and payable by the Borrower upon such repayment or acceleration, whether such acceleration is automatic or is effected by the Collateral Agent’s or the Lenders’ declaration thereof.

41
(c)This Agreement, together with the filing, with respect to the Borrower, of duly completed Code financing statements naming the Borrower as debtor, the Collateral Agent as secured party, and describing the Collateral, in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware creates, and at all times shall constitute, a valid and perfected security interest in and Lien upon the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to the extent a security interest therein can be perfected by such filings or possession, as applicable, superior and prior to the rights of all other Persons therein (except for Permitted Liens), enforceable as such against all creditors of the Borrower and any Persons purporting to purchase any Collateral from the Borrower, and no other or additional filings, registrations, recordings or actions are or shall be necessary or appropriate in order to maintain the perfection and priority of such Lien and security interest, other than continuation statements required under the Code.
(d)(i) the Borrower holds the Collateral free and clear of all Liens of every kind and nature, except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder and the other Permitted Liens, (ii) the Collateral is subject to no options to purchase or any similar rights of any Person, (iii) the Borrower will neither make nor permit to be made any assignment, pledge, hypothecation or loan, transfer of, or create any security interest in, the Collateral, except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder and the Permitted Liens, and the Borrower agrees to deliver promptly or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent any and all certificates or instruments at any time representing any of the Collateral, together with any necessary endorsement or instruments of transfer satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, and such other instruments and documents as the Collateral Agent may request that are necessary to perfect its security interest.
(e)No authorization, consent or approval of, or declaration or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required for the valid execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Agreement, the grant by it of the Lien and security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent provided for herein, or the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its rights and remedies hereunder, except for the filings described in clause (c) above.
(f)There are no statutory or regulatory restrictions, prohibitions or limitations on the Borrower’s ability to grant to the Collateral Agent a Lien upon and security interest in the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement or on the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its rights and remedies hereunder (including any foreclosure upon or collection of the Collateral), and there are no contractual restrictions on the Borrower’s ability to grant such Lien and security interest.
Section 8.03 Covenants with respect to the Collateral. Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lenders that, from the Agreement Date and until the Repayment Date, the Borrower will:
(a)not, directly or indirectly, sell, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, or amend or modify, any Collateral; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Borrower from (i) making payments to the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) making Restricted Payments expressly permitted under Section 5.10 hereof, (iii) paying the Purchase Price under, and as defined in, the Purchase Agreement, or (iv) any other assignment, transfer or disposal required or expressly permitted by this Agreement. Borrower shall defend the right, title and interest of the Lenders in and to the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever; and
(b)if Borrower shall acquire any interest in any commercial tort claim having a value predicted of $5,000,000 or more (as reasonably determined by a Responsible Officer of Borrower in good faith and based upon reasonable assumptions), whether from another Person or because such commercial tort claim shall have come into
42
existence, (i) promptly (and in any event, within five (5) Business Days) upon such acquisition, deliver to the Collateral Agent, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, a notice of the existence and nature of such commercial tort claim containing a specific description of such commercial tort claim, (ii) Section 8.01 shall apply to such commercial tort claim and (iii) Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, any document, and take all other action, deemed by the Collateral Agent to be reasonably necessary or appropriate for the Collateral Agent to obtain a perfected security interest having at least the priority set forth in Section 8.01 in all such commercial tort claims.
Section 8.04 Remedies with respect to Collateral. Without limiting the generality of Section 7.02:
(a)If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted in this Agreement, at law or in equity, and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Loan, all rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Code, and, subject to any restrictions set forth below, may foreclose or otherwise realize upon the Collateral in such portions or in full as the Collateral Agent sees fit in its sole discretion. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Person (which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices, or other defenses, are hereby waived by the Borrower), may collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, or may forthwith sell, assign, give option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, in the over-the-counter market, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Collateral Agent or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Collateral Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent or any Lender arising out of the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights and remedies hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of the Collateral shall be required by Applicable Law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) Business Days before such sale or other disposition. The Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency. Any proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral that remain after the full and final payment of all the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Borrower.
(b)The Collateral Agent shall have such rights and remedies as are set forth in this Agreement, all the rights, powers and privileges of a secured party under the Code as in effect in the applicable jurisdictions, and all other rights and remedies available to the Collateral Agent, at law or in equity. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have, to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of the Borrower, and the Borrower hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection the Borrower may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith.
(c)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Borrower, modify, terminate, waive or release, enforce and xxx on the Purchase Agreement and, without releasing the Borrower from its obligations under the Purchase Agreement, perform any and all obligations
43
of the Borrower under the Purchase Agreement and exercise any and all other rights of the Borrower therein contained as fully as the Borrower itself could, to the extent such actions are necessary or appropriate in order to accomplish or further effect the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to perform any obligation of the Borrower under the Purchase Agreement.
Section 8.05 Security Interest Absolute; Rights Cumulative; the Borrower Remains Liable; Further Assurances.
(a)All rights of the Collateral Agent and all security interests and all obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be continuing, absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, the Loan, the other Loan Documents, or any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or any other term in respect of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from this Agreement, the Notes, the Loan, or any other document executed or delivered in connection therewith; (iii) any increase in, addition to, exchange or release of, or non-perfection of any Lien on or security interest in any other collateral or any release of, amendment of, waiver of, consent to or departure from any security document or guaranty, for all or any of the Secured Obligations; (iv) the failure of the Collateral Agent to do any of the things or exercise any of the rights, interests, powers and authorities hereunder; or (v) the absence of any action on the part of the Collateral Agent to obtain payment or performance of the Secured Obligations from any other Person. The Collateral Agent shall not in any way be responsible for any failure to do any or all of the things for which rights, interests, power and authority are herein granted.
(b)The Borrower agrees that the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, the Notes, the Loan, or any other Loan Document (now or hereafter in existence) shall be cumulative, and that the Collateral Agent may from time to time exercise such rights and such remedies as the Collateral Agent may have thereunder and under the laws of the United States and any state, as applicable, in the manner and at the time that the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion desires. The Borrower further expressly agrees that the Collateral Agent shall not in any event be under any obligation to resort to any Collateral prior to exercising any other rights that the Collateral Agent may have against the Borrower or its property, or to resort to any other collateral for the Secured Obligations prior to the exercise of remedies hereunder nor shall the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent be conditional or contingent on any attempt of the Collateral Agent to exercise any of its rights under any other documents executed in connection herewith or in connection with the Collateral against such party or against any other Person, including Baxalta, Roche, Halozyme or the Escrow Agent.
(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Borrower shall remain liable for all obligations under the Collateral and nothing contained herein is intended or shall be construed as a delegation of duties to the Collateral Agent or Lenders and (ii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights or remedies hereunder shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral.
(d)This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, should the Borrower become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Borrower’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to Applicable Law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Collateral Agent or the Lenders, whether as a
44
“voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
(e)The Borrower agrees to make, execute, deliver or cause to be done, executed and delivered, from time to time, all such further acts, documents and things as the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably require for the purpose of perfecting or protecting its or their rights hereunder or otherwise giving effect to this Agreement, all promptly upon request therefor. The Borrower shall take or cause to be performed such acts and actions as shall be necessary or appropriate to assure that the security interests granted herein shall not become subordinate or junior to the security interests, liens or claims of any other Person.
ARTICLE IX
THE COLLATERAL AGENT
Section 9.01 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints BioPharma Credit Investments IV Sub, LP to act on its behalf as the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Except for the penultimate paragraph of Section 9.08, the provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor Halozyme shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Subject to Section 9.08 and Section 10.04, any action required or permitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be taken with the prior approval of the Required Lenders.
Section 9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Collateral Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent:
(i)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents to which it is a party that the Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in such other Loan Documents), provided that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take
45
any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Applicable Law; and
(iii)shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(b)The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Collateral Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.04) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Collateral Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.
(c)The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent.
Section 9.04 Reliance by Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Collateral Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article IX shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Collateral Agent and any such sub- agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Collateral Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent. Prior to its appointment hereunder, each sub- agent shall agree to be bound by the confidentiality agreement set forth in Section 10.10 and Annex A hereto.
Section 9.06 Resignation of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon the receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders
46
shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Collateral Agent; provided that, whether or not a successor has been appointed or has accepted such appointment, such resignation shall become effective upon delivery of the notice thereof. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.06). After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.14 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent. Upon any resignation by the Collateral Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Collateral Agent shall instead be made by, to or through each Purchaser directly, until such time as a Person accepts an appointment as Collateral Agent in accordance with this Section 9.06.
Section 9.07 Non-Reliance on Collateral Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and make the Loan hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Section 9.08 Collateral Matters. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Collateral Agent or Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion:
(a)to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent (A) upon discharge of the Secured Obligations, (B) that is sold, transferred, disposed or to be sold, transferred, disposed as part of or in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition (other than any sale to a Loan Party) permitted hereunder, or (C) subject to Section 10.04, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders;
(b)to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien on such property; and
(c)to enter into a subordination and intercreditor agreement as contemplated by Section 5.08.
Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this Section 9.08.
In each case as specified in this Section 9.08, the Collateral Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request (i) to evidence the release or subordination of such item of collateral from
47
the assignment and security interest granted hereunder, or (ii) to enter into a subordination and intercreditor agreement as contemplated by Section 5.08, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.08 and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent.
The Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Lenders notice of any action taken by it under this Section 9.08 as soon as reasonably practicable after the taking thereof; provided, that delivery of or failure to deliver any such notice shall not affect the Collateral Agent’s rights, powers, privileges and protections under this Article IX.
Section 9.09 Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 10.14 to be paid by it to the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (based upon the percentages as used in determining the Required Lenders as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Collateral Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.

(c) if to any Lender, to it at the address(es) set forth on Exhibit A hereto for such Lender.
Notices, communications and materials shall be deemed given or delivered when delivered or received at the appropriate address or telecopy number to the attention of the appropriate individual or department.
Section 10.02 Amounts Payable Due upon Request for Payment. All amounts payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall, except as otherwise expressly provided, be immediately due upon request for the payment thereof.
Section 10.03 Rights Cumulative. Each of the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents shall be in addition to all of its other rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and Applicable Law, and nothing in the Loan Documents shall be construed as limiting any such rights or remedies.
Section 10.04 Amendments; Waivers. Any term, covenant, agreement or condition of the Loan Documents may be amended or modified, and any right under such Loan Documents may be waived, if, but only if, such amendment, modification or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Required Lenders and, in the case of an amendment or modification, by the Borrower and, if its rights or obligations hereunder are affected thereby, by Halozyme; provided, however, that:
(a)unless agreed to by each Lender directly affected thereby, no amendment, waiver or modifications shall: (i) reduce or forgive the principal amount of the Loan or any Note, reduce the rate of or forgive any interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any premium or fees hereunder, (ii) extend the final scheduled maturity date or any other scheduled date for the payment of any principal of or interest on the Loan or any Note, or extend the time of payment of any premium or fees hereunder, (iii) except as expressly contemplated hereunder, increase the original principal amount the Loan over the amount thereof in effect or extend the maturity thereof (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Article III or of any Default or Event of Default, if agreed to by the Required Lenders or all Lenders (as may be required hereunder with respect to such waiver), shall not constitute such an increase), (iv) reduce the percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loan or Notes, or the number or percentage of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take or approve, or direct the Collateral Agent to take, any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”), (v) change any other provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents requiring, by its terms, the consent or approval of all the Lenders for such amendment, modification, waiver, discharge, termination or consent, (vi) change or waive any provision of Sections 2.12 or 2.04, any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document requiring pro rata treatment of any Lenders, or this Section 10.04, or (vii) release any Lien on all or substantially all of the Collateral other than in connection with a sale or transfer of assets permitted by this Agreement; and
(b)unless agreed to by the Collateral Agent in addition to the Lenders required as provided hereinabove to take such action, affect the respective rights or obligations of the Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.
Unless otherwise specified in such waiver, a waiver of any right under the Loan Documents shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No election not to exercise, failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right, nor any course of dealing or performance, shall operate as a waiver of any right of any Lender under the Loan Documents or Applicable Law, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right
50
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right of any Lender under the Loan Documents or Applicable Law.
Section 10.05 Set-Off. Subject to Section 2.12 hereof, each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower, at any time and from time to time, without notice, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to set off against, and to appropriate and apply to the payment of, the Liabilities of the Borrower under the Loan Documents (whether matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent or liquidated or unliquidated) any and all Liabilities owing by such Lender or any of its Affiliates to Borrower (whether payable in Dollars or any other currency and whether matured or unmatured).
Section 10.06 Assignment and Sale. The Borrower may not sell, assign or transfer this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any portion hereof or thereof, including their respective rights, title, interests, remedies, powers, and duties hereunder or thereunder. Nothing in any Loan Document shall prohibit any Lender from pledging or assigning this Agreement, its portion of the Loan or its Note and such Lender’s rights under any of the Loan Documents, including collateral therefor, or any portion hereof or thereof to any Person; provided that (i) in the case of an assignment of any Lender’s portion of the Loan or any Note or any rights or participations therein, such Person shall agree in writing to the provisions hereof applicable to Lenders (including the provisions of Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.10) and (ii) unless such assignment is to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (x) the prior written consent of the Borrower is obtained (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (y) no assignment shall be made to a Competitor, and (z) such pledgee or assignee represents in writing to the assigning Lender that such pledgee or assignee is not a Competitor. Any assignee or successor to a Lender shall provide notice of the assignment to Collateral Agent for purposes of the Register to be maintained pursuant to Section 2.07, which notice shall include information related to the new Lender, the amount and form of the assignment and such other information as Collateral Agent may reasonably request. Any assignee or successor to a Lender shall become a “Lender” under this Agreement at the time such Person’s ownership interest in the Loan or a Note is recorded in the Register and such Person shall be subject to the obligations set forth in this Agreement.
Section 10.07 Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except as may be expressly otherwise provided in any Loan Document) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York (including Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law, but excluding all other choice of law and conflicts of law rules).
Section 10.08 Judicial Proceedings; Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereto agrees that any judicial proceeding brought against it with respect to any Loan Document Related Claim may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in the City of New York and irrevocably waives any objection it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court or that such a court is an inconvenient forum. Each party hereto waives personal service of process and consents that service of process upon it may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified or determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.01, and service so made shall be deemed completed on the third Business Day after such service is deposited in the mail. Any judicial proceeding by any Loan Party against the Lender involving any Loan Document Related Claim shall be brought only in a court of the State of New York sitting in the City and County of New York and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York and any appellate court thereof. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY INVOLVING
51
ANY LOAN DOCUMENT RELATED CLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.08.
Section 10.09 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of the Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Loan Party hereby waives any provision of Applicable Law that renders any provision of the Loan Documents prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.
Section 10.10 Confidentiality. For so long as this Agreement is in effect and for a period of (a) five (5) years following the date of termination of this Agreement or (b) in the case of any Confidential Information arising under or subject to any of the License Agreements, five (5) years following the expiration or earlier termination of the applicable License Agreement, the Loan Parties, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall comply with and be bound by the provisions set forth in Annex A hereto, with the party that discloses Confidential Information (as defined in Annex A) being the “Discloser” and the party that receives Confidential Information being the “Recipient”; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit the rights of any Lender, or Collateral Agent, Escrow Agent or their respective successor or assigns to disclose Confidential Information as contemplated by the Baxalta Consent and Direction or the Roche Consent and Direction. The confidentiality obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement supersede any prior confidentiality agreements between the Lenders (or their Affiliates) and Halozyme or Borrower.
Section 10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto were upon the same instrument.

Section 10.14 Expenses; Indemnification.

(b)From and at all times after the Agreement Date, and in addition to all of the Collateral Agent’s and the Lenders’ other rights and remedies against the Borrower, the Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and the Lenders and their respective Related Parties (each such Person, including the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, being called an “Indemnitee”) from and against all damages, losses and other out-of- pocket costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, court costs and fees, and consultant and expert witness fees and expenses, but limited in the case of attorney’s fees and expenses to the reasonable and documented out of pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to the Indemnitees, taken as a whole and if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (and, in the case of a conflict of interest, where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional separate counsel for all similarly affected Indemnitees) (collectively “Costs”) arising in any manner, directly or indirectly, out of or by reason of any and all claims (whether valid or not), actions, suits, inquiries, investigations and administrative proceedings (collectively, “Proceedings”) relating to (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or any transaction contemplated herein or therein, whether or not any party protected under this Section 10.14(b) is a party to, or target of, any Proceeding in question (provided, however, that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for any liability resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), material breach by any Lender of its obligations under this Agreement, or disputes that are solely among Lenders or among the Collateral Agent and the Lenders other than disputes arising from an act or omission of the Borrower), (ii) any breach of any of the covenants, warranties or representations of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (iii) any Lien or charge upon amounts payable hereunder by the Borrower to the Lenders or any taxes, assessments, impositions and other charges in respect of the Collateral, or (iv) any violation or alleged violation of any Applicable Law, equitable requirement or other legal requirement by the Borrower or with respect to any Collateral to the extent that the Borrower is alleged to be responsible for such violation or alleged violation. All Costs shall be additional Secured Obligations under this Agreement, shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days of demand to the Indemnitee and shall be secured by the security interest and Lien created hereunder. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 10.14(b) shall not be limited to any extent by payment of the Secured Obligations and termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect until expressly terminated by the Lenders in writing. This Section 10.14(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim, or any Indemnified Taxes.
(c)Halozyme agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all Costs incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of: (i) any representation, warranty or certification made by Halozyme in this Agreement or certificates given by Halozyme in writing pursuant hereto which is untrue, inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect; (ii) any Parent Disbursement Instruction delivered to Escrow Agent by Halozyme pursuant to Section 6.03(c) which is untrue, inaccurate or incomplete; (iii) any material breach of or default under any covenant or agreement by Halozyme pursuant to this Agreement and, if capable of being remedied, such breach or default shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days, (iv) any material breach or default under any covenant or agreement by Halozyme pursuant to either License Agreement, and if capable of being remedied, such breach or default shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days; or (v) any Set-off by Roche (or its Affiliates) or Baxalta (or its Affiliates) of any amount against the otherwise required amount of any Post- Closing Royalty Amounts; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, apply to any such Costs arising from willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed or may be construed to constitute a Guaranty or assurance by Halozyme as to the amount
53
of any Post-Closing Royalty Amount or of the value of the Collateral and (y) neither the Collateral Agent, the Lenders nor any other Indemnitee shall have any recourse under this Agreement against Halozyme, its assets or properties, except for claims expressly provided for under this Section 10.14(c).
(d)The provisions of this Section 10.14 shall survive termination of this Agreement, and shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loan, the occurrence of the Maturity Date, the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 10.14 shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days following written demand therefor.
Section 10.15 Tax Legending of Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each Note shall bear the following legend:

ANNEX A
1.Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” shall mean any information related to Discloser’s business, prospects, technologies, current products, future products and proposed products and services, whether written, oral or visual, disclosed or provided by the Discloser to Recipient, including patent, copyright, trade secret and other proprietary information, research, development, scientific or financial data, compilations, formulae, models, design details, patent disclosures, procedures, processes, projections, protocols, results of experimentation and testing, specifications, strategies and techniques, customer lists and information, business forecasts, sales information, pricing, manufacturing information and assets. Without limiting the foregoing, “Confidential Information” includes any information that may be made known to Recipient and which Discloser has received from others that Discloser is obligated to treat as confidential or proprietary, whether or not marked as confidential. “Confidential Information” does not include information which the Recipient can establish by competent evidence: (a) was in the public domain at or subsequent to the time such information was communicated by Discloser to Recipient through no fault of Recipient; (b) was developed by employees, contractors or agents of Recipient independently of and without use of or reference to any Confidential Information disclosed by Discloser to Recipient; (c) was known to Recipient at the time of disclosure; (d) was approved for release by prior written authorization of Discloser; or (e) was provided to Recipient by a third party or was otherwise obtained by Recipient without obligation of confidentiality.
2.Nondisclosure and Nonuse Obligations. Recipient shall not use, disseminate, or in any way disclose the Confidential Information of the Discloser at any time except in furtherance of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents. Further, Recipient shall not disclose the existence of this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Discloser. Recipient shall treat all Confidential Information with the same degree of care as Recipient accords to Recipient’s own confidential information, but not less than reasonable care. Recipient shall maintain the Confidential Information of the Discloser in confidence, and shall not disclose the Confidential Information of the Discloser to any third party. Recipient shall disclose Confidential Information only to those of its employees, Affiliates, directors, consultants or agents (collectively, “Representatives”) who have a need to know such information and assist Recipient with respect to the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents. Recipient certifies that each such Representative will have agreed, either as a condition of employment (as applicable) or in order to obtain the Confidential Information, to be under an obligation to Recipient to be bound by terms and conditions no less restrictive than those terms and conditions applicable to Recipient under this Agreement. Recipient shall immediately give notice to Discloser of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information. Recipient shall assist Discloser, at Recipient’s expense, in remedying any such unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information. Recipient shall be liable to Discloser for any breach of the confidentiality or use obligations hereunder by Recipient or any Representative of Recipient. A disclosure of any Confidential Information (a) in response to a valid order by a court or other Governmental Authority or (b) as otherwise required by Applicable Law shall not be considered to be a breach of this Agreement or a waiver of confidentiality for other purposes; provided, however that Recipient shall provide prompt prior written notice thereof to Discloser to enable Discloser to seek a protective order or otherwise prevent such disclosure. The burden of establishing the existence of such exclusions rests with the Recipient.
