ARTICLE 26

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

26.1

Negotiation of PARTIES. In the event of any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of, relating to or in any way connected to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement, the performance of either PARTY under this Agreement or any other matter under this Agreement, including any action in tort, contract or otherwise, at equity or law (a “Dispute”), either PARTY may at any time provide the other PARTY written notice specifying the terms of such Dispute in reasonable detail. As soon as practicable after receipt of such notice, the Chief Executive Officers of both INNOVIVE and SHINYAKU (“Heads”) shall meet at a mutually agreed upon time and location for the purpose of resolving such Dispute. The Heads shall engage in good faith discussions and/or negotiations for a period of up to thirty (30) days to resolve the Dispute or negotiate an interpretation or revision of the applicable portion of this Agreement which is mutually agreeable to both PARTIES, without the necessity of formal procedures relating thereto.

26.2

Arbitration. In the event any Dispute is not resolved by the Heads pursuant to Section 26.1, then the PARTIES shall resolve such Dispute by final and binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Conciliation and Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce except to the extent such rules are inconsistent with this ARTICLE 26. The arbitration shall be held in English in New York, United States if requested by SHINYAKU, and in Osaka, Japan if requested by INNOVIVE. Whenever a PARTY decides to institute arbitration proceedings, it shall give written notice to that effect to the other PARTY. Any arbitrator chosen hereunder shall have educational training and industry experience sufficient to demonstrate a reasonable level of relevant scientific, financial, medical and industry knowledge.

Judgment on the award so rendered may be entered in a court having jurisdiction thereof. Each PARTY shall bear its own attorneys’ fees for the arbitration.

Nothing in this Section 26.2 will preclude either PARTY from seeking equitable relief or interim or provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable relief, concerning a Dispute either prior to or during any arbitration if necessary to protect the interests of such PARTY or to preserve the status quo pending the arbitration proceeding.
