iv.For the avoidance of doubt, the parties understand and agree that if GSK fails to pay any Royalties when Seller or Purchaser reasonably believes they are due under the Applicable Agreements (each such unpaid amount, a “Discrepancy”) because of a disagreement with GSK as to when, whether or the amount of any Royalties that are owed, then Seller shall not be obligated to pay to Purchaser or otherwise compensate or make Purchaser whole with respect to any such Discrepancy, but instead the parties shall attempt to recover such Discrepancy from GSK; provided, however, that nothing in this

Section 2.02(a) shall limit or affect in any respect the rights of any Purchaser Indemnified Party under Section 8.05.

For the avoidance of doubt, the sales milestones set forth above can be achieved during concurrent time periods (e.g., if Net Sales of the Products for any twelve consecutive months ending prior to January 1, 2024 exceed $2,750,000,000, then Purchaser shall owe Seller Sales Milestone Payments in an amount equal to $40,350,000).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, Purchaser may, without the consent of Seller, furnish or disclose Confidential Information of Seller to Purchaser’s Affiliates and its and their actual and potential partners, directors, officers, employees, managers, officers, investors, co-investors, partners, financing parties, bankers, agents, consultants, advisors, insurers, rating agencies, self-regulatory organizations, trustees and representatives (“Representatives”) on a need-to-know basis provided that such Persons shall be informed of the confidential nature of such information and shall be obligated to keep such information confidential pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.02.

As promptly as practicable after receiving written or oral notice from GSK, (A)

(i)terminating any of the Applicable Agreements, (ii) alleging any breach of or default under any of the Applicable Agreements by Seller, or (iii) asserting the existence of any facts, circumstances or events which alone or together with other facts, circumstances or events could reasonably be expected (with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both) to give rise to a breach of or default under any of the Applicable Agreements by Seller or the right to terminate any of the Applicable Agreements by GSK or (B) Seller obtains Knowledge of any fact, circumstance or event which alone or together with other facts, circumstances or events could reasonably be expected (with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both) to give rise to a breach of or default under any of the Applicable Agreements by Seller or the right to terminate any of the Applicable Agreements by GSK, in each case, Seller shall promptly give a written notice to Purchaser describing in reasonable detail the relevant breach or default, including a copy of any written notice received from GSK and, in the case of any breach or default or alleged breach or default by Seller, describing in reasonable detail any action Seller proposes to take to dispute or correct such alleged breach or default and (i) dispute such breach or default, or (ii) cure as promptly as practicable such breach or default in accordance with applicable Law and in a manner consistent in all material respects with the standard with which Seller would dispute or cure a breach in the administration of its own business (assuming, for

- 22 -

these purposes, that the Applicable Agreements were the only business of Seller); provided, however, that, if Purchaser, in its good faith judgment, determines that Seller has not used efforts to dispute or cure such breach or default consistent with the foregoing standard, Purchaser shall be entitled (but not obligated) to, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, take any and all actions on behalf of Seller that Purchaser deems reasonably necessary or advisable to dispute or cure such breach or default promptly (including by directly performing any obligation of Seller on behalf of Seller or providing funds to Seller so that Seller may perform its obligations under the Applicable Agreements), and Seller shall act in accordance with any reasonable instructions provided by Purchaser with respect to such breach or default, provide all reasonable cooperation requested by Purchaser in connection therewith and promptly reimburse Purchaser for all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith.

In conducting a Purchaser- Requested Audit, Seller shall, to the extent permitted by the Applicable Agreements, select such public accounting firm to conduct the Purchaser-Requested Audit as Purchaser shall recommend for such purpose. Seller shall not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, request or cause an inspection or audit of GSK’s books and records to be conducted pursuant to, and in accordance with Section 4.5 of the License Agreement or Section 6.5 of the Manufacturing Agreement, as applicable; provided, however, that if Purchaser has not requested an inspection

or audit pursuant to this Section 5.06 prior to June 30 of any applicable calendar year, Seller may request an audit or inspection pursuant to Section 4.5 of the License Agreement or Section 6.5 of the Manufacturing Agreement, as applicable, during such calendar year without the consent of Purchaser. As promptly as practicable after completion of any License Party Audit (whether or not requested by Purchaser), Seller shall deliver to Purchaser an audit report summarizing the results of such License Party Audit. In the event that an inspection or audit constitutes a Purchaser-Requested Audit, all of the expenses of any such Purchaser-Requested Audit (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of the independent public accounting firm) that would otherwise be borne by Seller pursuant to the Applicable Agreements, shall instead be borne (as such expenses are incurred, upon the provision to Purchaser of written documentation evidencing such expenses) by Purchaser, provided that any reimbursement by GSK of the expenses of the Purchaser-Requested Audit shall belong to Purchaser. Any deficiency in

- 23 -

payments made by GSK demonstrated in a License Party Audit shall be paid promptly, in accordance with the Applicable Agreements, to Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, by deposit in the Joint Escrow Account for further distribution to Purchaser or (in respect of Sales Milestone Payments) to Seller.

iii.any representation or warranty made by Seller in any of the Transaction Documents or in any certificate delivered to Purchaser pursuant hereto shall prove to be untrue, inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect on the date as of which made.

with, in the case of clause (i) above, a copy to the Depositary Bank. In the event Purchaser has actual notice of any Bankruptcy Event, it shall be entitled to give written notice thereof to the Depositary Bank, provided it concurrently delivers a copy thereof to Seller.

Section 5.08Seller Operations.

Except as set forth on Section 5.08 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, Seller will not undertake any actions other than to enter into and perform its obligations under the Applicable Agreements, the Transaction Documents and all documents, instruments, or agreements directly related thereto. Neither Seller nor Seller Parent or any manager of Seller shall amend or alter the Seller Organizational Documents, agree to dissolve Seller or otherwise windup its affairs or allow or take any action for Seller to become subject to any Bankruptcy Event.

Section 5.09Special Purpose Vehicle Covenants.

(a)

Seller will at all times remain in existence as a limited liability company separate and distinct from Seller Parent or any other Person and will not consent to or enter into any agreement or contract with respect to any reorganization, merger, recapitalization or consolidation of Seller with or into any other Person.

Section 8.05Indemnification.

(a)

Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser and its Affiliates and any of their respective partners, directors, managers, members, officers, employees and agents (each a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any Purchaser Indemnified Party arising out of (i) any breach of any representation, warranty or certification made by a Seller in any of the Transaction Documents to which Seller is a party or certificates given by Seller in writing pursuant hereto or thereto, (ii) any breach of or default under any covenant or agreement by Seller pursuant to any Transaction Document to which Seller is a party; (iii) any Excluded Liabilities and Obligations, (iv) any breach of any representation, warranty or certification made by Seller in any of the Transaction Documents to which Seller is party or certificates given by Seller to Purchaser in writing pursuant to any Transaction Document to which Seller is a party, to the extent directly or indirectly related to the Purchased Royalty Interests or the Purchaser’s interest therein or (v) any breach of or default under any covenant or agreement by Seller pursuant to any Transaction Document to which Seller is party, to the extent directly or indirectly related to the Purchased Royalty Interests or

- 30 -

Purchaser’s interest therein; provided that the foregoing shall exclude any indemnification to any Purchaser Indemnified Party (i) that results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Purchaser Indemnified Party, or (ii) to the extent resulting from acts or omissions of Seller or any of its Affiliates based upon the written instructions from any Purchaser Indemnified Party.

(b)

Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Seller, its Affiliates and any of their respective partners, directors, managers, officers, employees and agents (each a “Seller Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by a

Seller Indemnified Party arising out of any breach of any representation, warranty or certification made by Purchaser in any of the Transaction Documents or certificates given by Purchaser in writing pursuant hereto or thereto or any breach of or default under any covenant or agreement

by Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document, to the extent any such Losses are not subject to indemnification by Seller hereunder; provided, however, that the foregoing shall exclude any indemnification to any Seller Indemnified Party (i) that results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Seller Indemnified Party, or (ii) to the extent resulting from acts or omissions of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates based upon the written instructions from any Seller Indemnified Party.

(c)

If any claim, demand, action or proceeding (including any investigation by any Governmental Authority) shall be brought or alleged against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying party pursuant to the preceding paragraphs, the indemnified party shall, promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any such claim, demand, action or proceeding, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such claim, demand, action or proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers served, if any, provided that, the omission to so notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.05 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission

results in the forfeiture of, or have a material adverse effect on the exercise or prosecution of, substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement

thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish and provided that the indemnifying party acknowledges in writing to the indemnified party that it would have an indemnity obligation pursuant to this Section 8.05 with respect to such action, to assume and control the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8.05 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. In any such proceeding, an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party; provided that the indemnifying party shall be responsible for the indemnified party’s reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel if (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of such proceeding and has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same

- 31 -

counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interests between them based on the advice of counsel to the indemnified party. It is agreed that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm (in addition to local counsel where necessary) for all such indemnified parties. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any indemnifiable Loss under this Agreement by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the

prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement

(i) includes an unconditional written release of such indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such claim or proceeding, (ii) does not include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party and (iii) does not impose any continuing material obligation or restrictions on any indemnified party.

(d)

No claim for indemnification hereunder for breach of any representations or warranties contained in any Transaction Document may be made after the expiration of the survival period applicable to such representation or warranty; provided that any written claim for breach thereof made prior to such expiration date and delivered to the party against whom such indemnification is sought shall survive thereafter with respect to such claim.

(e)

Following the date first written above, except in the case of fraud or intentional breach, the indemnification afforded by this Section 8.05 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any and all Losses sustained or incurred by a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, including with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty or certification made by a party hereto in any of the Transaction Documents or certificates given by a party in writing pursuant hereto or thereto or any breach of or default under any covenant or agreement by a party pursuant to any Transaction Document. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR PROVIDED FOR UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR IN THIS SECTION 8.05 AND FOR INSTANCES OF ACTUAL FRAUD OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, NONE OF THE PARTIES HERETO SHALL BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO OR ANY PERSON, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR MULTIPLE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS RELATING TO THE BREACH OR ALLEGED BREACH HEREOF, WHETHER OR NOT THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES HAVE BEEN DISCLOSED TO ANY PARTY HERETO IN ADVANCE OR COULD HAVE BEEN REASONABLY FORESEEN. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any breach or failure in performance of any covenant or agreement contained in any Transaction Document, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek specific performance, injunctive or other equitable relief. For clarity, neither party shall have any right to terminate

this Agreement or any other Transaction Document as a result of any breach by the other party hereof or thereof, but instead shall have the right to seek indemnification under this Section 8.05 and such specific performance.

- 32 -

Section 8.06Independent Nature of Relationship.

(a)

The relationship between Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser is solely that of sellers and purchaser, and neither Purchaser nor Seller has any fiduciary or other special relationship with the other or any of their respective Affiliates. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document shall be deemed to constitute Seller and Purchaser as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or other kind of entity or legal form. Any party shall not refer other party as a “partner” or the relationship as a “partnership” or “joint venture.

(b)

No officer or employee of Purchaser will be located at the premises of Seller or any of its Affiliates. No officer, manager or employee of Purchaser shall engage in any commercial activity with Seller or any of its Affiliates other than as contemplated herein and in the other Transaction Documents.

(c)

Seller and/or any of its Affiliates shall not at any time obligate Purchaser, or impose on Purchaser any obligation, in any manner or respect to any Person not a party hereto.

Section 8.07Tax.

(a)

For U. S, federal, state and local income tax purposes, Seller and Purchaser shall treat the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents as a sale of the Purchased Royalty Interests. In this regard, any Sales Milestone Payment and Sales Rebate Payment shall be treated as adjustments to purchase price. The parties hereto agree not to take any position that is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 8.07(a) on any tax return or in any audit or other administrative or judicial proceeding unless otherwise required by law (including a good faith resolute of any tax audit). If there is an inquiry by any Governmental Authority of Purchaser or Seller related to this Section 8.07(a), Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in responding to such inquiry in a reasonable manner consistent with this Section 8.07(a).

(b)

To the extent any amount is withheld at source from a payment made pursuant to the Applicable Agreements, such withheld amount shall for all purposes of this Agreement be treated as paid to Seller and Purchaser on a pro rata basis in accordance with each of the party’s underlying ownership interest in each such payment (taking into account any amounts withheld); e.g., with respect to Purchaser, amounts so withheld shall be attributed to Purchaser, and deemed paid to Purchaser, in accordance with the Purchased Royalty Interests. Any amounts withheld pursuant to this Section 8.07(b) attributable to Purchaser shall be credited for the account of Purchaser. If there is an inquiry by any Governmental Authority of Purchaser related to this Section 8.07, Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser in responding to such inquiry in a reasonable manner consistent with this Section 8.07. Neither party shall have any obligation to gross-up or otherwise pay the other party any amounts with respect to source withholding. All amounts withheld at source as described herein shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have been received by the party to which they are attributed as provided above or to which the payment subject to such withholding was made.

(c)

Any and all payments from Seller to Purchaser under this Agreement shall be made without any deduction or withholding of any tax except as required by applicable law, provided that Seller shall not make any deduction or withholding of any U.S. tax as long as Purchaser has delivered to Seller a properly executed IRS Form W-9 or any other applicable or

- 33 -

successor forms prior to the payment and that as a result withholding is not required by applicable law. If any withholding or deduction is required at source from a payment made pursuant to the Applicable Agreements or this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser shall take commercially reasonable measures and cooperate with GSK to obtain any available reduction or exemption from such tax.

Section 8.08Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, together with the Exhibits and Schedule hereto (which are incorporated herein by reference), and the other Transaction Documents, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. No representation, inducement, promise, understanding, condition or warranty not set forth herein (or in the Exhibits, Schedule or other Transaction Documents) has been made or relied upon by either party hereto. None of this Agreement, nor any provision hereof, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.

Section 8.09Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

Section 8.10Severability.

If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

Section 8.11Counterparts; Effectiveness.

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 and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto. Any counterpart may be executed by electronic signature and such electronic signature shall be deemed an original.

Section 8.12Amendments; No Waivers.

(a)

This Agreement or any term or provision hereof may not be amended, changed or modified except with the written consent of the parties hereto. No waiver of any right hereunder shall be effective unless such waiver is signed in writing by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced.

(b)

No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or

- 34 -

privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
