Work
Plan and Budget as of the Effective Date is attached hereto as Attachment B
and
describes CRI’s, CHOP’s and TGC’s respective work for the current Project Year
of the Development Program. On or before the end of the ninth month of each
Project Year, CRI, CHOP and TGC will jointly prepare and provide in draft form
to IAVI a proposed Work Plan and Budget for the next Project Year, containing
a
statement of CRI’s, CHOP’s and TGC’s work for next Project Year and of the
amounts of budgeted Collaboration Payments to be made with respect to that
Project Year. CHOP, IAVI and TGC (and CRI with respect to any part of the Work
Plan and Budget that assigns any Development Work to CRI) will work in good
faith to agree on the final, written Work Plan and Budget for the next Project
Year on or before the end of the eleventh month of each Project Year. All Work
Plan and Budgets will take into account the progress made to that time in the
course of the Development Program, and none of CHOP, IAVI or TGC (nor CRI with
respect to any part of the Work Plan and Budget that assigns any Development
Work to CRI) will unreasonably withhold or delay its agreement to any such
Work
Plan and Budget.
3.5.2 IAVI
agrees to pay CRI, CHOP and/or TGC the quarterly Collaboration Payments set
forth in the applicable Work Plan and Budget. [*]
of
the
Collaboration Payments due and payable for a Program Quarter, estimated based
on
the applicable Work Plan and Budget, will be paid by IAVI to CRI, CHOP and
TGC

apply) recommends and IAVI agrees to modify or otherwise change the activities
to be conducted by CRI, CHOP or TGC, or the amount budgeted for activities
previously approved, the budget for funding to CRI, CHOP or TGC for that Project
Year (and corresponding Collaboration Payments due) will be revised to reflect
any adjustment in the estimated expenses for such Project Year as a result
of
the modified or otherwise changed activities or budget. IAVI
shall not be responsible for paying any amounts incurred resulting from changes
that were not approved as provided for in the foregoing sentence.
*Confidential

and obligations to perform Development Work shall be matched by a corresponding
decrease in funding amounts under the Work Plan and Budget; provided,
however,
that,
unless otherwise agreed, any such decrease in a Work Plan and Budget shall
not
take effect any earlier than ninety (90) days after notification of the decrease
to CRI, CHOP and TGC and provided,
further
that
IAVI will be required to pay CRI, CHOP and/or TGC the budgeted FTE and actual
non-labor costs and any non-cancelable obligations incurred in good faith,
in
each case only to the extent actually incurred by CRI, CHOP and/or TGC in
accordance with the Work Plan and Budget and not transferred to another
comparable revenue generating project under the Work Plan and Budget during
the
ninety (90) day period.

aside from the USAID Standard Provisions, there are, and have been, no other
rules,
regulations or grant requirements that the other Parties must comply with as
a
result of IAVI funding
any
activities or expenses under this Agreement or the Initial Agreement with monies
from any external funding source. IAVI shall disclose in writing all rules,
regulations or grant requirements (“Requirements”) that the other Parties must
comply with as a result of IAVI funding any activities or expenses under this
Agreement with monies from any other external funding source. The
Parties shall have no obligation to comply with such Requirements until they
receive such notice and agree in writing to receive such funds.

may visit those portions of the facilities of the other Parties or their Outside
Contractors (and the contracting Party shall use Reasonable Efforts to ensure
that such visits are permitted under the agreement with Outside Contractor)
where Development Work is being performed during normal business hours upon
reasonable prior notice without undue interruption to normal business
operations, and provided that
such
requests for visits are not otherwise unreasonable and are conducted on a
confidential basis.
3.7 Subcontracting
of Development Work.
Each of
CHOP, IAVI and TGC may contract with one or more Outside Contractors to perform
any or all of its obligations under the Development Program, provided

and
(iii) the contracting Party provides those other Parties upon their request
with a true and accurate copy of each such Outside Contractor Agreement promptly
after execution thereof. TGC and CHOP agree that IAVI may seek to enforce TGC
or
CHOP’s remedies under any such Outside Contractor Agreement directly against
such Outside Contractor without first exhausting its remedies against TGC or
CHOP if the Outside Contractor breaches such Outside Contractor Agreement so
as
to cause TGC or CHOP to breach this Agreement and IAVI shall have the right,
but
not the obligation to cure any default of TGC or CHOP under the applicable
Outside Contractor Agreement even if TGC or CHOP terminates or rejects such
agreement; provided,

liable and obligated to IAVI under all provisions of this Agreement. CHOP,
IAVI
and TGC agree to use Reasonable Efforts to include in each Outside Contractor
Agreement the following provisions: (a) a prohibition against sublicensing
by
such Outside Contractor of any Intellectual Property licensed to the contracting
Party under this Agreement which is licensed to such Outside Contractor by
TGC,
CHOP or IAVI (which license shall be for the sole purpose of allowing the
Outside Contractor to perform its obligations under the Outside Contractor
Agreement); (b) if TGC is required to provide such Outside Contractor any IAVI
Vaccine, a prohibition against the sale or distribution by such Outside
Contractor of such IAVI Vaccine to any Third Party; (c) unless prohibited

proteins
for a therapeutic or prophylactic effect and which is derived from or embodies,
in whole or in part, any Intellectual Property of a Party; (e) in the event
IAVI
is named as a third party beneficiary or executes such contract, an
acknowledgement that IAVI may enforce TGC’s and CHOP’s rights and remedies under
such Outside Contractor Agreement, as set forth in the previous sentence of
this
Section 3.7; and (f) a right for any such Party to terminate such Outside
Contractor Agreement in the event of a breach of the terms set forth in any

with
appropriate assistance from IAVI
maintain
all clinical trial and manufacturing-related Regulatory Approval filings
necessary for any IAVI Vaccine to be supplied to IAVI under this Agreement
or
the Clinical Supply Agreement, in the form agreed by CHOP, IAVI and TGC (and
CRI
if Sections 3.2.3 or 3.2.6 apply, or in the case of any Regulatory Approval
filing
a
section of which has been generated by CRI or which is based on CRI preclinical
data).
Without
limiting the foregoing, as part of the Development Program, TGC will assemble,
or assist IAVI in assembling, all Regulatory Approval filings concerning the
manufacture by TGC or clinical use by IAVI of any IAVI Vaccine. The expenses
incurred by TGC in assembling such Regulatory Approval filings shall be paid

pay IAVI the TGC HIV Royalty with respect to all TGC Royalty Revenues and all
TGC Non-Royalty Revenues arising from the Commercialization of any TGC anti-HIV
Vaccine anywhere in the Developed
World until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the term of the last patent
within the Patent Rights Controlled by TGC and utilized in the TGC anti-HIV
Vaccine or (ii) a determination by a court or administrative agency of competent
jurisdiction that the last claim of the last patent within the Patent Rights
Controlled by TGC and utilized in the TGC anti-HIV Vaccine is invalid or
unenforceable. If,
after
that date,
IAVI
Know How, Joint Know How owned by IAVI but not TGC or TGC Know How funded by
IAVI during the Development Period is used by TGC or its sublicensees in the
Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of an TGC
anti-HIV Vaccine, IAVI will agree to a reasonable reduction in the TGC HIV
Royalty after consultation with the other Parties, which
will be paid by TGC to IAVI on
a
country by country basis,
until
twelve (12) years from the initial receipt of TGC Royalty Revenue. TGC’s
agreement to pay the TGC HIV Royalty is based on the value TGC places on the
body of information compiled by IAVI as it moves IAVI Vaccines through the
clinic, toward Commercialization and through regulatory approval processes.
Therefore, (1) with respect to any
TGC
HIV Royalty payment due to IAVI with respect to TGC Non-Royalty Revenue, that
TGC HIV Royalty payment will be reduced: (a) by [*]%,

(b) TGC
Other Royalty.
TGC
will pay IAVI the TGC Other Royalty with respect to all TGC Royalty Revenues
arising from the license, sale, lease, distribution, import or use of any TGC
Other Vaccine anywhere in the Developing
World and the Developed World
until
the earlier
of (i)
the expiration of the term of the last patent within the Patent Rights
Controlled by TGC and utilized in the TGC Other Vaccine or (ii) a determination
by a court or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction that the last

after
that date,
IAVI
Know How, Joint Know How owned by IAVI but not TGC or TGC Know How funded by
IAVI during the Development Period is used by TGC or its sublicensees in the
Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of a TGC Other Vaccine,
IAVI
will
agree to a reasonable reduction in the TGC Other Royalty after consultation
with
the other Parties, which

4.3.2 Stock
Issuance.
Within
six business days of the date of execution of this Agreement, TGC shall issue
to
IAVI twenty five thousand (25,000) shares of TGC common stock, $0.01 par value
(the “Shares”).
(a) In
connection with the acquisition of the Shares, and without derogating in any
way
from the representations and warranties of TGC, IAVI represents as
follows:
(i) IAVI
has
been advised that the Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”),
nor
qualified under any state securities laws on the ground, among other things,
that no distribution or public offering of the Shares is to be effected and
that
in this connection TGC is relying in part on the representations of IAVI set
forth herein.
(ii) IAVI
is
acquiring the Shares for its own account as principal, for investment purposes
only, and not with a view to, or for, resale or distribution of all or any
part
of the Shares, and no other person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest
in such shares. IAVI has determined that the Shares are a suitable investment
for it and that it can bear a complete loss of value of the Shares. IAVI has
the
financial ability to bear the economic risk of its investment, has adequate
means for providing for its current needs and has no need for liquidity with
respect to its investment in the Shares. IAVI has such knowledge and experience
in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of its investment in the Shares. IAVI is authorized and qualified
to
become a holder of Shares.
(iii) IAVI
is
an “accredited investor” for the purposes of Regulation D promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Act.
(iv) IAVI
has
not purchased the Shares as a result of any general solicitation or general
advertising.
(v) IAVI
(a)
acknowledges that: (i) no federal or state agency has passed upon the Shares
or
made any finding or determination as to the fairness of this investment; (ii)
the Shares may not be transferred, sold or otherwise disposed of, except as
may
be permitted under the Act and applicable state securities laws pursuant to
registration or exemption therefrom; and accordingly, IAVI may be required
to
bear the financial risks of an investment in the Shares for an indefinite period
of time; and (b) consents to (i) the placing of a legend substantially in the
form set forth below on the certificate representing the Shares stating that
the
Shares have not been registered and setting forth the restriction on transfer
contemplated hereby and (ii) the placing of a stop transfer order on the books
of TGC and with any transfer agents against the Shares; provided
that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, the shares may be transferred and such legend
removed upon receipt by TGC of an opinion of reputable counsel in form
reasonably acceptable to TGC that such transfer is exempt from or not subject
to
registration under the Act.
-27-
A
legend
shall be placed on certificates representing the Shares substantially in the
form set forth below:
THE
SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OF
1933, AS AMENDED, NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR
ANY
INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD OR OTHERWISE
ASSIGNED OR TRANSFERRED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, NOR MAY THE SECURITIES BE
TRANSFERRED ON THE BOOKS OF THE CORPORATION, IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION
WITHOUT AN OPINION OF STOCKHOLDER’S COUNSEL, IN FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO
THE CORPORATION, THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM OR NOT SUBJECT TO
REGISTRATION.
The
foregoing representations shall survive the time when the Shares are
issued.
(b) In
connection with the acquisition of the Shares, TGC represents that, assuming
the
accuracy of the representations of IAVI contained in Section 4.3.2(a), the
offer, issuance and sale of the Shares are and will be exempt from the
registration requirements of the Act, and have been registered or qualified
(or
are exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit
or qualification requirements of all applicable state securities
laws.
(c) With
a
view to making available to IAVI the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under
the
Securities Act (“Rule
144”)
and
any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit IAVI to
sell
the Shares to the public without registration, TGC agrees to: (i) make and
keep
public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in
Rule
144, (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents
required of TGC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended; and (iii) furnish to IAVI, so long as IAVI owns any Shares, forthwith
upon request (x) a written statement by TGC that it has complied with the
reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act,
and
(y) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing IAVI
of
any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any of the Shares
without registration.
(d) Each
of
IAVI and TGC (the “Indemnifying
Party”)
agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless the other, its agents, officers, directors,
representatives and affiliates (collectively, the “Indemnified
Parties”)
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or based upon any false
representation or warranty or breach or failure by the Indemnifying Party to
comply with any covenant or agreement made by the Indemnifying Party in this
Section 4.3.2 or in any other document furnished by the Indemnifying Party
to
any of the Indemnified Parties in connection with the offer or sale of the
Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither IAVI nor TGC shall be liable
for
any lost profits or special, incidental or consequential damages.
4.4 Taxes
and Withholding.
All
payments under this Agreement will be made without any deduction or withholding
for or on account of any tax unless such deduction or withholding is required
by
Applicable Laws. If the paying Party is so required to deduct or withhold,
such
Party will (i) promptly notify the other Party of such requirement,
(ii) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be
deducted or withheld promptly upon the earlier of determining that such
deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has
been assessed against the other Party, and (iii) promptly forward to the
other Party an official receipt (or certified copy) or other documentation
reasonably acceptable to the other Party evidencing such payment to such
authorities. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate to obtain exemption from
or
reduction of any required withholdings or deductions in accordance with
Applicable Laws.

All
amounts payable and calculations hereunder shall be in United States dollars.
As
applicable, Net Sales of any Person and any expenses incurred by any Party
shall
be translated into United States dollars in accordance with customary and usual

to
the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus two
percent
(2%)
per

payment due date until the actual date of payment without prejudice to any
other
claim or remedy available to the non-paying Party; provided,
however,
that no
interest shall accrue on any portion of an unpaid amount which is the subject
of
a good faith, legitimate dispute. If any such dispute is resolved against the
paying Party, the date of resolution shall be deemed the date that payment
to
the other Party originally was due.

7.4 Enforcement
of Patent Rights.
7.4.1 If
any
Patent Right Controlled by TGC, CHOP Patent Right, CRI Patent Right or Joint
Patent Right Controlled by CHOP or CRI which is licensed exclusively hereunder
is or might reasonably be infringed by a Third Party (an “Infringement”),
the
Party first having knowledge of such Infringement shall promptly notify the
other Parties in writing of such Infringement in reasonable detail.
7.4.2 TGC
shall
have [*],
to
institute, prosecute and control, using counsel of [*]
choice,
any action or proceeding with respect to an Infringement, opposition, or
declaratory action of a Patent Right within the TGC Patent Rights, TGC Licensed
Patent Rights, or Joint Patent Rights but only where TGC is one of the joint
owners and the owners have waived their right of defense in such Joint Patent
Rights in writing. TGC, represented by counsel [*],
shall
bear [*]
in
connection with any such action or proceeding. Furthermore, for so long as
(i)
the TGC CRI Option as provided for in Section 5.14 or the TGC CHOP Option as
provided for in Section 5.15 survives and (ii) TGC pays all costs and expenses
in connection with any such action or proceeding, TGC shall have [*],
to
institute, prosecute and control, using mutually agreeable counsel, any action
or proceeding with respect to an Infringement, opposition, or declaratory action
of a CRI Patent Right or CHOP Patent Right where CRI or CHOP (as applicable)
has
waived its right of defense in such Patent Right in writing. Upon TGC’s request
and [*],
IAVI,
CHOP and CRI shall provide TGC with reasonable cooperation and assistance with
respect to any such action or proceeding and each of CRI, CHOP and IAVI
shall
have the
right to be represented by counsel of its choice at [*].
7.4.3 IAVI
shall have [*],
to
institute, prosecute and control, using counsel of [*]
choice,
any action or proceeding with respect to an Infringement, opposition, or
declaratory action of a Patent Right within IAVI’s Patent Rights. IAVI,
represented by counsel [*],
shall
bear [*]
in
connection with any such action or proceeding. Upon IAVI’s request and
[*],
TGC,
CHOP and CRI shall provide IAVI with reasonable cooperation and assistance
with
respect to any such action or proceeding and each of CRI, CHOP and TGC
shall
have the
right to be represented by counsel of its choice [*].
7.4.4 To
the
extent that the Infringement in IAVI’s reasonable judgment, if continued, would
materially and adversely [*]
in or
for the Developing World and TGC, CHOP or CRI, as applicable, has elected
[*]
with
respect to such Infringement, IAVI shall have the right (to the extent permitted
pursuant to any applicable agreement with a Third Party Licensor of the
applicable Patent Rights or any other prohibition of applicable patent right),
but not the obligation, to institute and/or prosecute and control an action
or
proceeding with respect to such an Infringement, by counsel [*].
In the
event that IAVI institutes any such action or proceeding, TGC, CHOP and CRI
will
each in their sole discretion provide assistance if necessary for IAVI to
institute and prosecute such action or proceeding and, upon IAVI’s request and
at IAVI’s [*]
including
upon IAVI’s request, to give IAVI reasonable assistance and authority to
institute and prosecute such action or proceeding. Each Party shall have the
right to be represented by counsel of its choice at [*].
In
addition, if the patent alleged to be infringed is owned by a Third Party
Licensor and TGC does not have authority to require such Third Party Licensor
to
join as a party plaintiff, TGC agrees to use Reasonable Efforts to cause such
Third Party Licensor to agree to be joined as a party plaintiff if helpful
or
necessary for IAVI to prosecute an action or proceeding, and to give IAVI
reasonable assistance and authority to institute and prosecute such action
or
proceeding. IAVI, represented by counsel of its choice, shall bear [*]
in
connection with any such action or proceeding.
*Confidential
Treatment
Requested.

7.4.5 Unless
otherwise required as a result of prior written agreement, any damages or other
monetary awards recovered in an action or proceeding described in Section 7.4.2,
7.4.3, 7.4.4, 7.4.5 or 7.4.6 shall be applied first to [*]
incurred
in connection with the action or proceeding with respect to such Infringement,
opposition or declaratory judgment action including,
in each case, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (and,
in
the circumstance where the Patent Right infringed is owned by a Third Party
Licensor and an agreement between TGC and such Third Party Licensor requires
reimbursement of such Third Party Licensor, such Third Party Licensor’s
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with such Infringement
action or proceeding), on a [*]
based
upon the Parties’ respective out-of-pocket expenses, until all such
out-of-pocket expenses have been recovered. Any remaining amount of such damages
or other monetary awards shall then be retained by [*].
7.5 Settlement
with a Third Party.
No
Party may settle any action or proceeding under Section 7.4 above with respect
to an Infringement, opposition, or declaratory action in
a
manner that creates a material obligation or admits fault on behalf of any
other
Party
without
the written consent of such other
Party,
such
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
7.6 Infringement
of Third Party Rights.
The
following shall apply in the event that a Third Party alleges that Intellectual
Property owned, held or otherwise controlled by such Third Party are being
infringed or have been infringed by the Parties in performing their obligations
or exercising their rights with respect to any IAVI Vaccine under this
Agreement:
7.6.1As
between IAVI and TGC, subject to TGC’s obligations, if any, pursuant to an
agreement with a Third Party in effect prior to the Effective Date, TGC shall
([*])
defend
any claim in any legal action or proceeding brought against TGC and/or IAVI
arising from an allegation by a Third Party that the [*]
by
[*]
in
connection with an IAVI Vaccine under this Agreement or the Clinical Supply
Agreement infringes a patent owned, held or otherwise controlled by such Third
Party [*].
In
addition, TGC shall have the right to take any appropriate step to initiate
and
pursue to final resolution any challenge, opposition or other similar action
or
proceeding, including, without limitation interference proceedings, relating
to
a patent application or patent owned, held or otherwise controlled by a Third
Party solely with respect to the [*].
TGC and
IAVI shall consult with each other concerning strategy, approaches and the
consequences of approaches that may be taken under this Section 7.6.1. IAVI
shall provide all reasonable assistance requested by TGC in connection with
any
such action or proceeding, provided, however
that TGC
shall [*]
by IAVI
in providing such assistance. TGC may not settle an action or proceeding under
this Section 7.6.1 without requesting the written consent of IAVI and such
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If TGC does not consent
[*]
of
receipt of IAVI’s request for consent, IAVI may settle but not in a manner that
creates a material obligation or admits fault on behalf of TGC.

CONFIDENTIALITY
8.1 Confidentiality;
Exceptions.
Except
to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Clinical
Supply Agreement, or the Commercial Supply Agreement
(if
any),
the
Parties agree that, for the term of this Agreement and for [*]
years
thereafter, all non-public or proprietary know how, data, and technical,
financial and other information of any nature whatsoever, including, without
limitation “confidential”-marked invention disclosures and discussions about
nonpublic or proprietary matters between or among the Parties (“Confidential
Information”),
in
all such cases which are exchanged, disclosed or submitted, either orally or
in
writing (including, without limitation by electronic means) or through
observation, by one Party (the “Disclosing
Party”)
to
another Party (the “Receiving
Party”)
hereunder shall be received and maintained by the Receiving Party in strict
confidence, shall not be used for any purpose other than for the purposes of
exercising such Receiving Party’s rights or performing such Receiving Party’s
obligations hereunder, and shall not be disclosed to any Third Party (including,
without limitation in connection with any publications, presentations or other
disclosures). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may, subject
to
the other provisions of this Agreement and the Clinical Supply Agreement,
disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to those of its, and
its Affiliates’, Outside Contractors’ or its sublicensees’ (or potential
sublicensees’), directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants,
representatives and clinical investigators that have a need to know such
Confidential Information to achieve the purposes of this Agreement and the
Clinical Supply Agreement (the “Other
Receiving Parties”);
provided,
however,
that
such Receiving Party shall ensure that the Other Receiving Parties to whom
disclosure is to be made are bound by, and take reasonable efforts to ensure
compliance with, the confidentiality, and prohibition of use, terms hereof.
Each
Receiving Party will promptly notify the Disclosing Party upon discovery of
any
unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Information of the Disclosing
Party. Confidential Information belongs to and shall remain the property of
the
Disclosing Party. The provisions of this Article 8 shall not apply to any
information which can be shown by the Receiving Party:
8.1.1 To
have
been known to or in the possession of the Receiving Party prior to the date
of
its actual receipt from the Disclosing Party,
as
demonstrated by competent written records;
8.1.2 To
be or
to have become part of the public domain other than through any act or omission
of the Receiving Party in breach of this Agreement or the Clinical Supply
Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties;
*Confidential
Treatment
Requested.
-46-
8.1.3 To
have
been disclosed to the Receiving Party, other than under an obligation of
confidentiality, by a Third Party which had no obligation to the Disclosing
Party not to disclose such information to others; or
8.1.4 To
have
been subsequently independently developed by the Receiving Party without use
of
or access to the Confidential Information as demonstrated by competent written
records.
8.2 Authorized
Disclosure.
Each
Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party hereunder
solely to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary or useful in
connection with submissions to any Government Authority for the purposes of
this
Agreement or the Clinical Supply Agreement or in filing or prosecuting patent
applications contemplated under this Agreement or the Clinical Supply Agreement,
prosecuting or defending litigation, complying with Applicable Laws or
conducting Development Work for the purposes expressly permitted by this
Agreement or the Clinical Supply Agreement; provided
that in
the event of any such disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential
Information by the Receiving Party, the Receiving Party will, except where
impracticable, give reasonable advance notice to and fully cooperate with the
Disclosing Party regarding such disclosure requirement (so that the Disclosing
Party may seek a protective order and or other appropriate remedy or waive
compliance with the confidentiality provisions of this Article 8) and will
use
its reasonable efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential
Information required to be disclosed. IAVI
shall designate all disclosures of Confidential Information to any funding
agency “CONFIDENTIAL.”
8.3 Return
of Confidential Information.
The
Receiving Party shall keep Confidential Information belonging to the Disclosing
Party in appropriately secure locations using at least the same degree of care
that it uses to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of its own
confidential information. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement,
any Confidential Information possessed in tangible form by a Receiving Party
or
an Other Receiving Party and belonging to the Disclosing Party, shall, upon
written request from the Disclosing Party, be immediately returned to the
Disclosing Party (or destroyed if so requested) and not retained by the
Receiving Party or the Other Receiving Party; provided,
however
that (a)
the Receiving Party may retain, and is not required to return, (i) Confidential
Information of the Disclosing Party which is used in connection with such
Receiving Party’s exercise of any license granted to it hereunder which license
survives the expiration or termination of this Agreement and (ii) one (1) copy
of Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to reflect its compliance
with this Agreement, and (b) the Receiving Party may retain one (1) copy of
any
Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party for so long as any Applicable
Laws require such retention but thereafter shall dispose of such retained
Confidential Information in accordance with Applicable Laws or this
Section 8.3. In the case of either (a) or (b) above, the Receiving Party
shall continue to comply with the other provisions of this Article 8 with
respect to the applicable Confidential Information.
8.4 Publications
and Announcements.
8.4.1 Except
as
otherwise permitted under this Agreement or the Clinical Supply Agreement or
as
required by law, regulation, or court order, each Party agrees not to publish
any Confidential Information received from a Disclosing Party. It is understood
further that Confidential Information may be disclosed by TGC to Third Parties
bound by non-disclosure agreements to the extent such Confidential Information
both (1) [*]
and
(2) is disclosed in relation to matters [*].
-47-
8.4.2 If
any
Receiving Party (the “Publishing
Party”)
desires to disclose any Confidential Information received from a Disclosing
Party which relates to the Research and Development Program or the Research
Program in scientific journals, publications or scientific presentations or
otherwise, the Publishing Party shall provide the Disclosing Party an advance
copy of any proposed publication or summary of a proposed oral presentation
relating to such Confidential Information prior to submission for publication
or
disclosure. The Disclosing Party shall have a reasonable opportunity to
recommend any changes it reasonably believes are necessary to preserve such
Confidential Information and the Publishing Party shall either incorporate
such
recommended changes or remove such Confidential Information. If the Disclosing
Party informs the Publishing Party, within thirty (30) days of receipt of an
advance copy of a proposed publication or summary of a proposed oral
presentation, that such publication in its reasonable judgment could be expected
to have a material adverse effect on the commercial value of such Confidential
Information, the Publishing Party shall either delay or prevent such disclosure
or publication as proposed by the Disclosing Party or remove such Confidential
Information. In the case of potentially patentable inventions, the delay shall
be sufficiently long to permit the timely preparation and filing of a patent
application(s) or application(s) for a certificate of invention on the
information involved, provided,
however,
that
the Disclosing Party owning such information shall be entitled to require the
removal of such Confidential Information to prevent such disclosure or
publication if in its commercially reasonable judgment such patent application
will not reasonably protect the commercial value of such Confidential
Information or if in its commercially reasonable judgment such disclosure or
publication would otherwise have a material adverse effect on the commercial
value of any such Confidential Information.
8.4.3 None
of
the Parties shall issue any press releases or public announcements concerning
this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties to the
form, timing and content of any such release of announcement, except as required
by Applicable Law; provided,
however,
that
any Party may issue press releases or public announcements which incorporate
information concerning this Agreement which information was included in a press
release or public announcement which was approved by the other Parties in any
prior press release concerning this Agreement. No Party shall unreasonably
withhold or delay its consent to any such press release or announcement. It
is
understood that general comments made by a Party relating to the relationship
between the Parties established by this Agreement or the Clinical Supply
Agreement, including, for example, general comments made in response to
inquiries at professional meetings and other similar circumstances, are not
intended to be restricted by the provisions of this Article 8.
Notwithstanding
any of the foregoing, the existence, general subject matter and scope of this
Agreement is not Confidential Information of any Party. No Party shall use
the
names or trademarks of another Party, or any adaptation thereof, including
referring to any employee therefrom, without prior written consent in each
instance.

ARTICLE
9
TERM
AND
TERMINATION
9.1 Term.
9.1.1 This
Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue in full
force and effect until the term of the last remaining license granted pursuant
to Article 5 has expired.
9.1.2 Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 9.1.1, this Agreement in its entirety may be
terminated prior to expiration in accordance with the terms and conditions
of
this Article 9 (and any termination of this Agreement shall automatically
terminate the Development Program as of the effective date of such
termination).
9.2 Termination
for Technical Non-Viability.
During
the Development Period, IAVI may terminate this Agreement upon not less than
[*]
prior
written notice to TGC, CHOP and CRI, if, in [*],
based
on the failure of any IAVI Vaccine to meet safety or technical criteria set
out
in the Development Program, IAVI reasonably determines that further development
of any IAVI Vaccine is not technically or commercially viable. The [*]
day
notice period may be shortened upon lump sum payment of the Collaboration
Payments budgeted to fund the [*]
charges,
[*]
(to the
extent that any manufacturing capacity [*]
for the
[*]
in such
[*]
day
period cannot reasonably be [*]
product
[*]
from a
Third Party [*]))
and
[*]
costs of
[*]
where
such costs are costs specified in the [*].
[*]
shall
use good faith efforts to [*]
by TGC
following notification by [*]
(including, but not limited to, [*]
revenue
generating projects or [*]
manufacturing suite time [*]).
9.3 Termination
at Will.
IAVI
may terminate this Agreement at any time in IAVI’s sole discretion, at any time
from and after the first anniversary of the Effective Date, upon not less than
[*]
prior
written notice to TGC, CHOP and CRI. The [*]
notice
period may be shortened upon lump sum payment of the Collaboration Payments
budgeted to fund the [*],
the
[*] (to
the
extent that any [*]
reasonably [*]
for the
[*]
in such
[*]
cannot
reasonably be [*]
product
([*]
from a
Third Party [*])),
and
[*]
costs of
[*] where
such costs are costs specified in the [*].
TGC
shall use good faith efforts to minimize the costs incurred by TGC following
notification by IAVI of termination of the Agreement (including,
but not limited to, [*]
revenue
generating projects or [*]
manufacturing suite time [*]).
9.4 Termination
for Cause.
Subject
to Sections 9.4.1, 9.4.2, 11.2 and 12.2 below, if any Party commits a
material breach of this Agreement or the Clinical Supply Agreement at any time,
any of the non-breaching Parties may provide written notice thereof to the
breaching Party specifying the breach in reasonable detail. If the breach
specified in such written notice is not cured within [*]
of
receipt of such notice in the case of a breach consisting of an undisputed
nonpayment of money, or within [*]
of
receipt of such notice in the case of any other material breach, the Qualified
Terminating Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the
Clinical Supply Agreement with respect to the breaching Party by and effective
upon written notice (except where the breach, in IAVI’s reasonably exercised
judgment, is based on the failure of any IAVI Vaccine to meet safety or
technical criteria set out in the Development Program, in which case Section
9.2
shall apply). Although neither CRI nor CHOP is a Qualified Terminating Party,
CRI may terminate its participation in the Development Program in the event
of a
material breach by any other Party and CHOP may terminate its participation
in
the Development Program in the event of a material breach by any other Party
which, in each case has not been cured after proper written notice thereof
within the time periods specified above in accordance with the foregoing
provisions of this Section 9.4. Furthermore, in the event CRI or CHOP is the
breaching Party, IAVI may terminate CRI’s or CHOP’s (as applicable) involvement
in the Development Program (rather than terminating this Agreement which, in
such case, shall remain in effect). The Parties acknowledge and agree that
failure to exercise any right or option, or to take any action expressly within
the discretion of a Party shall not be deemed to be a material breach
hereunder.
*Confidential
Treatment
Requested.
-49-
9.4.1 If
the
breach specified in a notice to CRI pursuant to Section 9.4 could be cured
if
CRI were permitted to enter into a Outside Contractor Agreement: (1) no
Qualified Terminating Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement;
(2) CHOP shall not have the right to terminate its participation in the
Development Program; and (3) CRI shall have no liability under this Agreement
for such breach and the other Parties’ sole recourse against CRI for such breach
shall be to terminate CRI’s participation in the Development Program and all of
its rights under Sections 3.1 through 3.4 above immediately upon written notice
from a Qualified Terminating Party following the expiration of the cure period
specified in Section 9.4.
9.4.2 If
any
Party is in breach of any provision of this Agreement, during the period from
the Effective Date until the date on which this Agreement is executed, and
such
breach relates to an obligation of such Party which was not included in the
Initial Agreement, each Party agrees that such breach is automatically waived.
However if such breach relates to an obligation of such Party which was included
in the Initial Agreement, CRI, IAVI and TGC may enforce that obligation in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
9.5 Termination
for Insolvency.
To the
extent permitted by Applicable Laws, on or after the occurrence of an Insolvency
Event with respect to a Party, any Qualified Terminating Party may terminate
this Agreement and/or the Clinical Supply Agreement by and effective upon
written notice to the other Parties. Although neither CRI nor CHOP is a
Qualified Terminating Party, each of CRI and CHOP may terminate its
participation in the Development Program in the event of the occurrence of
an
Insolvency Event with respect to IAVI or TGC. All rights and licenses granted
under or pursuant to this Agreement by one Party to any other Party are, and
shall otherwise be deemed to be, for the purposes of Section 365(n) of the
Bankruptcy Code, licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined under
Section 101(35A) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Parties agree that all
Parties, as licensees of such rights and licenses, shall retain and may fully
exercise all of their rights and elections under the Bankruptcy
Code.
9.6 Rights

permission of CRI, CHOP or TGC
(as
applicable) which
approval shall not
be
unreasonably withheld) and
IAVI
is not licensed under any [*]
regarding such Program Material for [*].
For the
avoidance of doubt CRI, CHOP and TGC are under no obligation to maintain,
prosecute, enforce or defend any Intellectual Property as a direct result of
the
continuing [*]
license
unless
(and then only with respect to prosecution, maintenance and defense) IAVI
provides prior written notice that it agrees to pay all costs, including product
development milestone costs, associated with such maintenance, prosecution
or
defense of such Intellectual Property.
IAVI
agrees that it shall pay all costs associated with TGC Licensed Patent Rights
and TGC Licensed Know How incurred by TGC as a result of the continuing
[*]
license
following
termination.
Prior
to
the use of Program Materials in human clinical trials, IAVI shall obtain

Termination for IAVI Cause or IAVI Insolvency.
In the
event that TGC terminates this Agreement with respect to IAVI only under
Section 9.4, or entirely under Section 9.5, all rights and licenses granted
to IAVI by TGC under Sections 5.2.1, 5.2.2, 5.6.1 and 5.6.2, and all rights
granted to IAVI under the Clinical Supply Agreement, shall terminate and revert
to TGC. Thereafter, IAVI shall have no further right or interest in, to or
under
any Intellectual Property of TGC pursuant to this Agreement or the Clinical
Supply Agreement. In such event, (1) TGC shall provide to IAVI any Program
Materials existing at the time of termination which have been [*]
(however, such Program Materials shall not be utilized in any experiments by
IAVI or sent to any Third Party without the prior written permission of CRI,

10.5 Indemnification
Procedure.
10.5.1 Each
indemnified Party specified above in this Article 10 (the “Indemnitee”)
agrees
to give the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnitor”)
prompt
written notice of any Losses or discovery of fact upon which the Indemnitee
intends to base a request for indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the failure to give timely notice to the Indemnitor shall not release
the Indemnitor from any liability to the Indemnitee to the extent the Indemnitor
is not prejudiced thereby.
10.5.2 The
Indemnitee shall furnish promptly to the Indemnitor copies of all papers and
official documents in the Indemnitee’s possession or control which relate to any
Losses; provided,
however,
that if
the Indemnitee defends or participates in the defense of any Losses, then the
Indemnitor shall also provide such papers and documents to the Indemnitee.
The
Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Indemnitor in providing witnesses and
records and other reasonable assistance necessary in the defense against any
Losses at Indemnitor’s sole expense.
10.5.3 The
Indemnitor shall have the right, by prompt notice to the Indemnitee, to assume
direction and control of the defense of any Third Party claim forming the basis
of such Losses, with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee and at
the
sole cost of the Indemnitor, so long as (i) the Indemnitor shall promptly
notify the Indemnitee in writing (but in no event more than thirty (30) days
after the Indemnitor’s receipt of notice of the Third Party claim giving rise to
indemnification hereunder), absent the development of facts that give the
Indemnitor the right to claim indemnification from the Indemnitee and
(ii) the Indemnitor diligently pursues the defense of the
claim.
10.5.4 If
the
Indemnitor assumes the defense of the claim as provided in Section 10.5.3
above, the Indemnitee may participate in such defense with the Indemnitee’s own
counsel who shall be retained at the Indemnitee’s sole cost and expense;
provided,
however,
that
neither the Indemnitee nor the Indemnitor shall consent to the entry of any
judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the claim without the
prior written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. If the Indemnitee withholds consent in respect of a
judgment or settlement involving only the payment of money by the Indemnitor
and
which would not involve any stipulation or admission of liability or result
in
the Indemnitee becoming subject to any material obligation, including injunctive
relief or other relief (or loss of rights hereunder), the Indemnitor shall
have
the right, upon notice to the Indemnitee within five (5) days of receipt of
the
Indemnitee’s written denial of consent, to pay to the Indemnitee, or to a trust
for its or the Third Party’s benefit, as shall be established at trial or by
settlement, the full amount of the Indemnitor’s obligation under
Section 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 or 10.4, as applicable, with respect to such
proposed judgment or settlement, including all interest, costs or other charges
relating thereto, together with all attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred to
such date for which the Indemnitor is obligated under this Agreement, if any,
at
which time the Indemnitor’s rights and obligations with respect to the claim
shall cease.
-55-
10.5.5 If
the
Indemnitor does not so assume the defense of such claim, the Indemnitee may
conduct such defense with counsel of the Indemnitee’s choice but may not settle
such case without the written consent of the Indemnitor, such consent not to
be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.
10.5.6 Except
to
the extent expressly provided for in Section 10.5.5 above, the Indemnitor
shall not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by the
Indemnitee which is reached without the written consent of the Indemnitor,
such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
10.5.7 Except
as
otherwise provided in this Section 10.5, the portion of costs and expenses,
including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, incurred by any Indemnitee
under Section 10.5.5 in connection with any claim corresponding to the
Indemnitor’s obligation under Section 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 or 10.4, as
applicable, shall be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by the Indemnitor,
for so long as the Indemnitee controls the defense of the claim, without
prejudice to the Indemnitor’s right to contest the Indemnitee’s right to
indemnification and subject to refund in the event the Indemnitor is ultimately
held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee.
10.6 Insurance.
10.6.1 TGC
shall
maintain general liability or similar insurance concerning TGC’s activities in
connection with the Development Program with general aggregate limits of at
least $[*],
such
limits of liability may be met by utilizing umbrella or excess liability limits,
during the Development Program (prior to any commercial launch of an IAVI
Vaccine as to which royalties would be payable to IAVI hereunder) and of at
least $[*]
following any commercial launch of such an IAVI Vaccine, and during the period
IAVI Vaccine remains on the market and subject to a royalty obligation
hereunder. TGC shall maintain product liability insurance with coverage of
at
least $[*]
per
occurrence and $[*]
annual
aggregate limit and TGC shall maintain at least the statutory minimum levels
of
product liability insurance for international trials with IAVI Vaccine,
including satisfaction of specific in-country insurance where required by law.
TGC shall name IAVI and CHOP, and CRI so long as it is party to this Agreement,
as additional insured parties with respect to product liability insurance for
IAVI clinical trials of any IAVI Vaccine. TGC shall provide CRI, CHOP and IAVI
with a certificate of insurance evidencing such coverage.
10.6.2 IAVI
shall maintain product liability insurance with coverage of at least
$[*]
for each
occurrence and $[*]
annual
aggregate limit for domestic trials. IAVI shall name TGC and CHOP,
and CRI
so long as it is party to this Agreement,
as
additional insured parties with respect to product liability insurance for
IAVI
clinical trials of any IAVI Vaccine. IAVI shall provide CRI, CHOP and TGC with
a
certificate of insurance evidencing such coverage.
10.7 Limitation
of Liability; Remedies Cumulative.
10.7.1 EXCEPT
FOR EACH PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL,
PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT AWARE OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

10.7.2 THE
REMEDIES PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE CUMULATIVE AND NOT EXCLUSIVE OR IN
LIMITATION OF ANY OTHER REMEDY AVAILABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR AT LAW OR
IN
EQUITY. ACCORDINGLY, UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT,
A
REMEDY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT AS AVAILABLE TO TGC, CRI, CHOP OR IAVI IS
NOT
INTENDED AS AN EXCLUSIVE REMEDY.

to
this Agreement; reasonable in nature and amount; and allowable. To facilitate
