(i) In the event that a Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target is sold in combination (in the same package, including as a co-formulation, or under the same label) with one or more other active ingredients that are not Licensed PROTACs directed to Exclusive Targets (for purposes of this Section, a “Combination Product”), the Net Sales of such Licensed Product shall be determined by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by the fraction, A/(A+B), where: A is the average sale price of the Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target when sold separately in finished form, and B is the average sale price of the other pharmaceutically active product(s) included in the Combination Product when sold separately in finished form, in each case for the most recent period in which sales of both occurred. If the Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target is sold as part of a Combination Product and is sold separately in finished form, but the other pharmaceutically active product(s) included in the Combination Product are not sold separately in finished form, the Net Sales of such Licensed Product shall be determined by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by the fraction A/C where: A is the average sale price of the Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target contained in such Combination Product when sold separately in finished form, and C is the average sale price of the Combination Product. If the Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target is sold as part of a Combination Product and is not sold separately in finished form, but the other pharmaceutically active product(s) included in the Combination Product are sold separately in finished form, the Net Sales of such Licensed Product shall be determined by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by the fraction C-B/C where: B is the average sale price of the other product(s) included in such Combination Product when sold separately, and C is the average sale price of the Combination Product.

(ii) If Net Sales of the Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target when included in a Combination Product cannot be determined using the methods above, Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product by the fraction of E/(E+F) where: E is the fair market value of the Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target in finished form, and F is the fair market value of all other pharmaceutically active product(s) included in the Combination Product in finished form as reasonably determined in good faith by the Parties. Where the preceding sentence is applicable, Genentech shall in good faith propose to Arvinas, at least [**] prior to the first commercial sale of the Combination Product, an allocation of relative value of the Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

and all other pharmaceutically active product(s) included in the Combination Product, Arvinas shall in good faith consider such proposal, and the Parties shall seek to reach agreement on such allocation. If the Parties are unable to reach such agreement within [**] after Genentech provides such proposal, the issue shall be resolved in accordance with Section 14.2, provided that there shall be a single arbitrator who shall be a mutually agreeable individual (not affiliated with either Party) with expertise in the marketing and sales of similar pharmaceutical products (including experience in pricing and reimbursement), and the Parties shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that such resolution shall occur within [**] after such referral.

(iii) The foregoing analysis shall be conducted on a country-by-country basis as reasonably required to compare fair market values of the relevant Combination Product components.

2.6.1 In the event, upon any termination of the Research Program for a particular Exclusive Target that is an Initial Target or that is an Expansion Target for which the Expansion Target Payment has been made, the Research Program Costs incurred by Arvinas have not equaled the initial Budget for such Research Program prepared in accordance with Section 2.3 for such Exclusive Target, the amount of such remaining Budget for such Exclusive Target shall be applied as a credit towards any amounts due as reimbursement for the Research Program Costs incurred by Arvinas for any Substitute Target for such Exclusive Target in accordance with Section 2.8.2. Arvinas shall notify Genentech in writing of any such residual amount within [**] following the end of the calendar quarter in which such termination occurred. Genentech shall have the right, at its election, to apply the amount of such remaining Budget as a credit towards any payments subsequently owed to Arvinas hereunder (other than a payment to be made under Section 6.1(b) or 6.2 in conjunction with the execution of this Agreement).

As of the A&R Effective Date, Genentech has a [**] U.S. dollar (US$[**]) credit under this subsection as a result of the termination of the Research Programs for the Initial Targets.

2.6.2 Upon any termination of the Research Program for a particular Exclusive Target in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, Arvinas shall return or destroy (and provide written certification thereof) any Genentech Compounds (including any such Genentech Compounds as contained or incorporated in any PROTAC or any Deliverables), and Arvinas shall not use any Confidential Information of Genentech (including any such information regarding the Genentech Compounds as provided by Genentech or as contained or incorporated in the Deliverables) in any subsequent efforts conducted by Arvinas, its Affiliates or their respective Third Party licensees with respect to any such Exclusive Target (other than pursuant to an ongoing Research Program under this Agreement), unless and until such Confidential Information is no longer considered “confidential” under the exclusions to the confidentiality obligations under Article 9 of this Agreement.

2.6.3 Upon any termination of the Research Program for a particular Exclusive Target pursuant to Section 2.5.4, 2.7.3, 2.8.2, 2.11 or 3.2.5 (but not any termination upon exercise of the Option with respect to such Exclusive Target pursuant to Section 3.2.4), Genentech shall return or destroy (and provide written certification thereof) any Deliverables (including any remaining quantities of any Evaluation Materials) that have been provided to Genentech with respect to such Exclusive Target, and Genentech shall not use any Confidential Information of Arvinas provided hereunder with respect to such Exclusive Target (including any such information regarding the Deliverables as provided by Arvinas or as contained or incorporated in such Deliverables), unless and until such Confidential Information is no longer considered “confidential” under the exclusions to the confidentiality obligations under Article 9 of this Agreement.

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

2.7.1 Completion of Stage I. Upon achievement of the Completion Criteria for Stage I under a Research Plan for a particular Exclusive Target, Arvinas shall suspend its activities under the relevant Research Plan and provide to the JPT Co-Leads the Deliverables with respect to Stage I for such Exclusive Target, including a summary report that includes results of the assays for any Licensed PROTAC(s) directed to such Exclusive Target conducted in evaluating in vitro protein degradation of such Exclusive Target in accordance with the Completion Criteria for Stage I of the Research Plan, without disclosing the chemical structures of such Licensed PROTACs (such Licensed PROTACs, the “Lead PROTACs”). Following Genentech’s receipt of the Deliverables with respect to Stage I for such Exclusive Target, Genentech shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to elect whether to advance the Research Program for such Exclusive Target to Stage II. The relevant Deliverables (and any Confidential Information contained or incorporated in such Deliverables to the extent such information does not fall within any exclusions under Section 9.2) shall remain the property and Confidential Information of Arvinas, and shall be used by Genentech for the sole purpose of evaluating whether or not to make any such election or an election to exercise the relevant Option, unless and until the Option to the relevant Exclusive Target has been exercised. Unless and until the Option to the relevant Exclusive Target has been exercised, Genentech shall not sell, transfer or disclose any such Deliverables (and including any Confidential Information contained or incorporated in such Deliverables to the extent such information does not fall within any exceptions under Section 9.2) to any other Person, without first receiving the prior written consent of Arvinas, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Genentech may exercise such right by notifying Arvinas’s Alliance Manager in writing (“Election Notice”) at any time during the period from Genentech’s receipt of the Deliverables with respect to Stage I for such Exclusive Target until [**] thereafter (“Election Period”); provided that in the event of a good faith dispute between the Parties as to whether or not the Completion Criteria for Stage I of the Research Plan have been achieved, Arvinas shall provide, at Genentech’s request, any additional information that is within the scope of the Research Plan and Budget and reasonably necessary to determine the achievement of the Completion Criteria for Stage I of the Research Plan for such Exclusive Target (including performing any mutually agreed additional activities to generate such additional information that are to be reimbursed in accordance with Section 2.5.2) and the Election Period shall toll from the time of such request until Genentech’s receipt of such additional information, or as otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Parties. For clarity, any additional information provided to Genentech pursuant to this Section shall be deemed included in the Deliverables.

The Parties shall not conduct any further activities under the Research Plan for such Exclusive Target unless and until Genentech, in its sole discretion, elects to advance the Research Program for such Exclusive Target pursuant to this Section; provided that in the event an Election Notice is not provided to Arvinas within the Election Period (as may be extended as set forth above), Genentech shall be deemed to have elected to not advance the Research Program for such Exclusive Target and to terminate the Research Program in accordance with Section 2.7.3 below.

2.7.2 Advancement. Upon receipt of an Election Notice to advance the Research Program for a particular Exclusive Target in accordance with Section 2.7.1 above, the Parties shall continue to conduct the Research Program in accordance with this Agreement and the Research Plan for such Exclusive Target.

All laboratory notebooks shall be maintained for no less than the term of any Patent issuing therefrom. All other records shall be maintained by each Party during the relevant Research Term and for [**] thereafter. All such records of a Party shall be considered such Party’s Confidential Information.

2.10 Designation of Exclusive Targets.

2.10.1 Initial Targets. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the Initial Targets identified on Exhibit 1.74 were designated, as of the Original Effective Date, as “Exclusive Targets” under this Agreement. As noted earlier, as of the A&R Effective Date, Genentech’s right, under Section 2.8.1(b), to nominate a Proposed Target under Section 2.10.2 as a Substitute Target has been triggered for its Initial Target of [**] due to termination of the Research Program with respect to [**]. In addition, pursuant to Section 3.2.3,Genentech hereby, as of the A&R Effective Date, notifies Arvinas that it is exercising its Option for its other Initial Target, [**], which Arvinas agrees qualifies as a timely provided Option Notice under Section 3.2.3 for such Initial Target.

2.10.2 Expansion Targets and Substitute Targets.

(a) Appointment of a Third Party Target Reviewer. Within [**] after the A&R Effective Date, the Parties shall enter into a mutually acceptable three-way confidentiality agreement with a mutually agreed upon Third Party willing to perform, throughout the remainder of the Expansion/Substitution Period, the Expansion Target and Substitution Target nomination/designation/rejection/notice process described below in this Section 2.10.2 (the “Third Party Target Reviewer”); however, at any time, the Parties may, by mutual agreement, change the person or entity serving as the Third Party Target Reviewer.


		28


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

(b) Nomination of Expansion Targets or Substitute Targets. At any time during the Expansion/Substitution Period, Genentech may, by notifying the Third Party Target Reviewer in writing, nominate a Proposed Target as an additional Target (an “Expansion Notice”) or, as relevant, as a substitute Target for an Exclusive Target (a “Substitution Notice”), to be included as an Exclusive Target under this Agreement (an “Expansion Target” or “Substitute Target,” respectively). Such notices shall include both the common name and [**] of the Proposed Target. Genentech may include up to a maximum of [**] Expansion Targets under this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.10.2, and Genentech may Substitute an Exclusive Target under this Agreement solely as set forth in Section 2.8 above.

In conjunction with its Expansion Notice or Substitution Notice, whichever is applicable, to the Third Party Target Reviewer, Genentech will also notify Arvinas in writing that it has submitted an Expansion Notice or Substitution Notice, but will not identify the Proposed Target to Arvinas. Within [**] after receipt of Genentech’s notice, Arvinas shall provide the Third Party Target Reviewer with a complete and accurate written list of all Excluded Targets as of the date of Arvinas’ receipt of Genentech’s notice regarding its Expansion Notice or Substitution Notice, which list shall include the common name and [**] of each Excluded Target and shall also identify for each Excluded Target whether such Target is considered an Excluded Target due to “clause (i) of the definition of Excluded Target”, “clauses (ii), (iii), or (iv) of the definition of Excluded Target”, or “clause (v) of the definition of Excluded Target”, whichever is applicable.

If the information in an Expansion Notice or Substitution Notice or in Arvinas’ list of then-Excluded Targets is insufficient for the Third Party Target Reviewer to determine under Section 2.10.2(c) whether the Proposed Target is or is not an Excluded Target, then Genentech and/or Arvinas shall provide the Third Party Target Reviewer with such additional information as requested by the Third Party Target Reviewer as reasonably necessary to make such determination, which may include amino acid sequences.

Notwithstanding the process set forth in this Section 2.10.2, the Parties agree and acknowledge that the [**] Expansion Targets identified on Exhibit 2.10.2(b) are designated, as of the A&R Effective Date, as “Expansion Targets” under this Agreement, and the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to Exclusive Targets that are Expansion Targets shall apply accordingly. Genentech shall make Expansion Target Payments pursuant to Section 6.2 with respect to such [**] Expansion Targets.

(c) Target Availability. The Third Party Target Reviewer shall promptly, but no later than [**] after receiving Arvinas’ list under Section 2.10.2(b), determine whether the Proposed Target is or is not an Excluded Target based on Arvinas’ list of then-Excluded Targets.

(d) Notice of Excluded Target or not Excluded Target. If the Third Party Target Reviewer determines under Section 2.10.2(c) that the Proposed Target is not an Excluded Target, then (i) the Third Party Target Reviewer will promptly notify both Parties in writing, informing them that such Proposed Target was not an Excluded Target and disclosing to them the identity of such Target and its [**], (ii) subject to Section 2.10.2(e), such Proposed Target


		29


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

shall be designated as an “Expansion Target” or “Substitute Target,” as applicable, and (iii), subject to receipt by Arvinas of a corresponding Expansion Target Reservation Fee or Expansion Target Payment due as provided under Sections 2.10.2(f)(i) and (ii) below, an “Exclusive Target” under this Agreement, and the Parties’ rights and obligations with respect to Exclusive Targets under this Agreement shall apply to such Expansion Targets and Substitute Targets that become Exclusive Targets accordingly.

If, however, the Third Party Target Reviewer determines under Section 2.10.2(c) that the Proposed Target is an Excluded Target, then (i) the Third Party Target Reviewer shall promptly notify both Parties’ Alliance Managers in writing, informing them that the Proposed Target was an Excluded Target (but without disclosing the identity or [**] of such Target to Arvinas) and identifying, per Arvinas’ list, whether such Target was considered an Excluded Target due to “clause (i) of the definition of Excluded Target”, “clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the definition of Excluded Target”, or “clause (v) of the definition of Excluded Target”, whichever is applicable, and (ii) such Proposed Target shall not be designated as an Expansion or Substitution Target, whichever is applicable.

For clarity, the Parties agree that the Third Party Target Reviewer shall not disclose to Genentech any Excluded Target that is not also a Proposed Target and shall not disclose, except as expressly permitted in this Section 2.10.2(d), any Proposed Target to Arvinas, an Arvinas Affiliate, or any other Third Party.

(e) Mis-Determination Notice. In the event that the Third Party Target Reviewer notifies the Parties under Section 2.10.2(d) that a given Proposed Target was not an Excluded Target but Arvinas believes that such determination was made in error, Arvinas shall notify Genentech and the Third Party Target Reviewer in writing (a “Mis-Determination Notice”) as soon as practicable and in any event within no more than [**] of Arvinas’ receipt of the Third Party Target Reviewer’s notice. Within [**] of sending the Mis-Determination Notice, Arvinas shall submit to the Third Party Target Reviewer documentary evidence that the relevant Proposed Target was an Excluded Target at the time of Arvinas’ receipt of the applicable notice from Genentech under Section 2.10.2(b) (“Documentary Evidence”). The Third Party Target Reviewer shall promptly review the Documentary Evidence to determine whether its previous determination under Section 2.10.2(c) was made in error and shall notify the Parties concurrently in writing whether the Proposed Target was in fact an Excluded Target or not. If the Third Party Target Reviewer determines that the Proposed Target was in fact an Excluded Target, notwithstanding Section 2.10.2(d), the Proposed Target shall, with retroactive effect, no longer be deemed as an “Expansion Target” or “Substitute Target,” as applicable, under this Agreement, and for clarity, no corresponding payment shall be due under Section 2.10.2(f). The relevant date for purposes of the Documentary Evidence shall be the date as of which Arvinas and Genentech have both submitted their respective lists to the Third Party Target Reviewer for the relevant nomination.

(f) Established Expansion Targets or Substitute Targets.

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

(i) For each proposed Expansion Target that the Third Party Target Reviewer determines under Section 2.10.2(c) is not an Excluded Target, unless such determination is reversed pursuant to Section 2.10.2(e), Genentech shall owe to Arvinas a payment (which shall be deemed applicable to such Expansion Target) of either (i) the Expansion Target Reservation Fee or (ii) the Expansion Target Payment, which amount shall be paid to Arvinas within [**] of the later of Genentech’s receipt of the Third Party Target Reviewer’s notice under Section 2.10.2(d) regarding such Target or Genentech’s receipt of the Third Party Target Reviewer’s notice under Section 2.10.2(e) regarding such Target, if applicable, and such Proposed Target shall be designated as an “Exclusive Target” as set forth above as of the date of such payment. For clarity, in the event that neither such payment is made to Arvinas within the period specified above, the Proposed Target shall no longer be designated as an “Expansion Target” under this Agreement and all rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement with respect to such Target shall be deemed terminated.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties shall not, and Arvinas shall have no obligation to, commence activities under the Research Plan for an Expansion Target (or any permitted Substitute Target therefor) unless and until Genentech has paid to Arvinas an amount equal to the Expansion Target Payment for the relevant Expansion Target (or the relevant permitted Substitute Target therefor), less any Expansion Target Reservation Fee paid for such Expansion Target. If Genentech fails to pay Arvinas the total amount of the Expansion Target Payment for an Expansion Target (or the relevant permitted Substitute Target therefor) before expiration of the Expansion/Substitution Period, then after the expiration of the Expansion/Substitution Period, such Expansion Target (or the relevant permitted Substitute Target therefor) shall no longer be designated as an “Expansion Target” or “Exclusive Target” under this Agreement, and all rights and obligations of the Parties under the Research Program and this Agreement with respect to such Target shall be deemed terminated in accordance with Section 13.4 (but without any [**] delay), subject to Sections 2.6 and 13.5 below, as applicable.

(ii) For clarity, for any proposed Substitute Target that the Third Party Target Reviewer determines under Section 2.10.2(c) or, if applicable, Section 2.10.2(e), is not an Excluded Target and that substitutes a Target (whether such Target is an Expansion Target or Substitute Target) that was first accepted as an Expansion Target and for which the Expansion Target Reservation Fee or the Expansion Target Payment has not been paid to Arvinas, Section 2.10.2(f)(i) shall apply to such Substitute Target as an Expansion Target for which such amounts would be owed to Arvinas, subject to termination if Genentech fails to pay such amounts within the relevant periods specified in such Section 2.10.2(f)(i).

(iii) For clarity, the Expansion Target Payment shall be payable only once for each Expansion Target (or any permitted Substitute Target therefor), and in no event shall the total amount to be paid by Genentech in the form of Expansion Target Payments for Expansion Targets exceed [**] U.S. dollars (US$[**]).

(g) Alternative Targets. In the event any Proposed Target is determined by the Third Party Target Reviewer to be an Excluded Target in accordance with Section 2.10.2(c) or, if applicable, Section 2.10.2(e), Genentech shall have the right to nominate another Proposed Target in lieu of such Proposed Target within the Expansion/Substitution Period to be included as an Exclusive Target under this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.8 or this Section 2.10.2 above, as relevant, and such alternative Proposed Target shall be accepted or rejected in accordance with Section 2.10.2(c) or, if applicable, Section 2.10.2(e).

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

(h) Audit Right regarding Certain Excluded Targets. If a Proposed Target is rejected as an Exclusive Target under this Section 2.10.2 because [**], Genentech may, by notifying Arvinas’s Alliance Manager in writing within [**] of receipt of the Third Party Target Reviewer’s notice of such rejection pursuant to Section 2.10.2(d) or, if applicable, Section 2.10.2(e), request to verify that such rejected Proposed Target was actually an Excluded Target by having a single representative from an independent, internationally recognized intellectual property law firm and/or a single pharmaceutical industry consultant, in either case, selected by Genentech and acceptable to Arvinas (the “Target Auditor”) review Arvinas’s applicable written records. Genentech may exercise its rights under this Section 2.10.2(h) on [**] rejected Proposed Targets per calendar year, even if the number of rejected Proposed Targets exceeds [**] during such calendar year.

Arvinas shall, within [**] following its receipt of Genentech’s notice in the preceding paragraph, make complete and accurate copies of all of its relevant written records available (e.g., contracts, term sheets, lab notebooks, test results, etc.), at a mutually agreeable time during its regular business hours, for inspection by the Target Auditor at such place or places where such records are customarily kept, solely to determine whether or not such rejected Proposed Target was an Excluded Target [**] at the time of Arvinas’s receipt of the applicable notice from Genentech under Section 2.10.2(b). The Target Auditor shall, during such visit, discuss its findings with Arvinas prior to finalizing any conclusion in order to afford Arvinas the opportunity to present its rationale for issuance of the rejection. The Parties shall use all reasonable efforts to conduct and conclude any such inquiry in a prompt and efficient manner and with minimal disruption to Arvinas’ operations.

Prior to any audit hereunder, the Target Auditor shall enter into a written confidentiality agreement with Arvinas that (i) limits the Target Auditor’s use of Arvinas’s records to the verification purpose described above; (ii) limits the information that the Target Auditor may disclose to Genentech to solely whether or not such rejected Proposed Target was an Excluded Target [**] at the time of Arvinas’ receipt of the applicable notice from Genentech under Section 2.10.2(b); and (iii) prohibits the disclosure of any information contained in such records to any Third Party for any purpose. The Parties agree that all information subject to review hereunder and/or provided by the Target Auditor to Genentech is Arvinas’s Confidential Information, and neither Genentech nor the Target Auditor shall use any such information for any purpose that is not germane to this Section 2.10.2(h). Upon concluding its audit, the Target Auditor shall promptly deliver its conclusion in writing to each Party and shall deliver a summary of the reasons for its findings to Arvinas.

If the Target Auditor concludes that the rejected Proposed Target was an Excluded Target [**] at the time of Arvinas’s receipt of the applicable notice from Genentech under Section 2.10.2(b), then the audit is concluded and no further consequences result. However, if the Target Auditor concludes that the rejected Proposed Target was not an Excluded Target [**] at the time of Arvinas’s receipt of the applicable notice from Genentech under Section 2.10.2(b) and thus should have been designated an Exclusive Target, such Proposed Target shall, as of the Parties’ receipt of the Target Auditor’s conclusion, be automatically designated as an Exclusive Target retroactively to the date Arvinas received the nominating notice.


		32


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

Any audit under this Section 2.10.2(h) shall be at Genentech’s sole expense; provided, however, Arvinas shall promptly reimburse Genentech for the reasonable fees of an audit in which the Target Auditor properly concluded that the rejected Proposed Target was not an Excluded Target [**] at the time of Arvinas’s receipt of the nominating notice and thus should have been designated an Exclusive Target.

2.11 Termination of Research Program. Genentech may terminate the Research Program for a particular Exclusive Target, with or without cause, in accordance with Section 13.4 as a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.4 with respect to such Exclusive Target at any time, subject to Sections 2.6 and 13.5 below, as applicable.

Other important medical events that may jeopardize the patient or may require intervention to prevent one of the outcomes previously listed should also be considered “Serious”. If such Adverse Experience is “Highly Serious” (that is, it results in death or is immediately life threatening), Arvinas will notify Genentech within [**]. For Adverse Experiences that are Serious, but not Highly Serious, Arvinas will notify Genentech within [**].

5.6 Optimization Programs.

5.6.1 Licensee’s Election; Negotiation of Optimization Plan. After Genentech exercises its Option under Section 3.2 for an Exclusive Target, Licensee may, in its sole discretion, notify Arvinas of its desire to undertake an Optimization Program under this Agreement on the Lead PROTAC(s) for such Exclusive Target. If, following such notice, Arvinas is interested in conducting an Optimization Program for such Exclusive Target, as determined in Arvinas’ sole discretion, and notifies Licensee of its interest, the Parties, through the JPT, shall promptly attempt to negotiate and draft in good faith a proposed optimization research plan for such Exclusive Target, including a scope of activities (including any relevant


		42


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

resources requirements for Arvinas) (“Optimization Work Plan”), timeline (“Optimization Schedule”), criteria for completion (“Optimization Completion Criteria”), and deliverables to be provided (“Optimization Deliverables”) (collectively, an “Optimization Plan”) for the JRC’s approval. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, both Parties’ JRC members must approve in writing any initial Optimization Plan for an Exclusive Target. Genentech, as final JRC decision maker, cannot approve an initial Optimization Plan for any Exclusive Target. Consequently, if both Parties, via the JRC, do not agree on the initial Optimization Plan for an Exclusive Target, then such Optimization Plan is not approved, and, unless and until both Parties’ JRC members approve an initial Optimization Plan, there is no Optimization Program for such Exclusive Target. However, with regard to amendments to any mutually approved initial Optimization Plan, [**] has the final JRC decision making authority, subject to the limits on its authority set forth in Section 2.2.1(e).

As referenced throughout this Agreement, the term “Optimization Plan” shall include any initial Optimization Plan prepared and approved in accordance with this Section 5.6.1 and any revisions to such Optimization Plan approved by the JPT or JRC as expressly contemplated under this Agreement or as otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in writing. Each Party will use Diligent Efforts to perform its obligations under any Optimization Plan approved in accordance with this Agreement, and each Party shall comply with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the conduct and documentation of its Optimization Program activities. Each Party shall, in performing its obligations under any Optimization Program, assign responsibilities to those portions of its organization that have the appropriate resources, expertise and responsibility for such obligations.

It is understood that an Optimization Plan shall not include IND enabling activities, such as preparation for regulatory filings and the like, except as the Parties may agree on a case-by-case basis and in writing to collaborate on such IND enabling activities and include such activities in reasonable detail in an Optimization Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Arvinas shall provide any authorizations, consents, references, or other documentation, including permission to cross-reference any relevant INDs previously filed by Arvinas, as necessary to support IND enabling activities in the Field in the Territory for a particular Licensed Product for which Genentech has exercised its Option under 3.2.

As of the A&R Effective Date, the Parties hereby agree to undertake an Optimization Program under this Section 5.6 with regard to the Lead PROTACs for the Initial Target of [**], for which Genentech timely exercised its Option, as set forth in Section 2.10.1, on the A&R Effective Date and agree that the initial Optimization Plan for the [**] Optimization Program will, subject to the requirement of approval of such plan by consensus of the Parties as provided above, be approved by the JRC at its first meeting following the A&R Effective Date.

5.6.2 Subcontractors. Arvinas may not subcontract portions of its work under an Optimization Plan to Affiliates or Third Parties without Licensee’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that any such consent shall require that such subcontract is consistent with the relevant terms and conditions of this Agreement, including that (a) no intellectual property of such Third Party subcontractor shall be utilized or incorporated into such subcontracted portion and (b) any intellectual property resulting from such subcontracted portion shall be assigned to Arvinas such that such intellectual property shall


		43


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

be deemed “Controlled” by Arvinas and included within the Joint New Intellectual Property or Arvinas New Intellectual Property, as appropriate, hereunder. As of the A&R Effective Date, Licensee has consented to Arvinas subcontracting with [**] to conduct services with respect to the Optimization Programs by and on behalf of Arvinas. Licensee shall have the unrestricted right to enter into subcontracts with its Affiliates or Third Parties with respect to its performance of the Optimization Programs; provided, such subcontract is consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement as applicable to such subcontractor, including without limitation Sections 8.2.5(c) (either by assignment or other conveyance, e.g., license) and 9.3(e). In any case, the subcontracting Party shall remain responsible (at its cost) for and shall ensure that each subcontractor complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

5.6.3 Conduct; Costs.

(a) Optimization Plan Approval. If an Optimization Plan is approved by JRC in accordance with Section 5.6.1, then, during the Optimization Term for such Exclusive Target, the JPT shall, as necessary or desired from time-to-time, propose and approve revisions to such initially approved Optimization Plan; except that any proposed revisions to the Optimization Completion Criteria of an approved Optimization Plan require the JRC’s approval prior to implementation. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the main body of this Agreement and any Optimization Plan, the terms and conditions of the main body of this Agreement shall prevail.

(b) Arvinas. Arvinas shall use Diligent Efforts to conduct its activities under the relevant Optimization Plan during the relevant Optimization Term. Arvinas shall devote such numbers of scientists, with the requisite qualifications, as the Optimization Program may require to meet such Diligent Efforts requirement

For clarity, any label extensions or therapy expansions (including, without limitation, first or later treatment lines, metastatic, adjuvant, combination, etc.) shall not be deemed to be separate Indications.

(c) Deliverables Know-How Licensed Products. In lieu of the amounts set forth in Sections 6.3.1(a) and (b), Licensee shall pay Arvinas [**] percent ([**]%) of the milestone event payment amounts specified under Sections 6.3.1(a) and (b) if the corresponding milestone event (but for clarity without the requirement that it be achieved by a Valid Claim Licensed Product) is first achieved by a Licensed Product that is a Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product and not a Valid Claim Licensed Product due to [**] with respect to the milestone events in Section 6.3.1(b)(i) and (iii) and [**] with respect to the milestone event in Section 6.3.1(b)(ii)) at the time of such achievement, with respect to such Exclusive Target, subject to the terms of this Section 6.3 and the payment provisions in Article 7 below.

(a) Deliverables Know-How Licensed Products. In lieu of the amounts set forth in Section 6.3.2 above, Licensee shall pay Arvinas [**] percent ([**]%) of the relevant one-time milestone event payment under Section 6.3.2 above if the corresponding milestone event (but for clarity without the requirement that it be achieved by only Annual Net Sales of Valid Claim Licensed Products) is first achieved when Annual Net Sales of a Licensed Product in one or more particular country(ies), where such Licensed Product is a Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product at the time of sale in each of such country(ies), subject to the terms of this Section 6.3 and the payment provisions in Article 7 below. If a milestone event under Section 6.3.2 above was first achieved by a Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product and the corresponding milestone event payment was made in accordance with this Section 6.3.2(a), then subsequently, Annual Net Sales of the same Licensed Product in one or more particular country(ies), where such Licensed Product is a Valid Claim Licensed Product at the time of sale in each such country(ies), achieves the corresponding threshold as set forth in this Section 6.3.2 above, then Licensee shall pay Arvinas an additional [**] percent ([**]%) of the relevant one-time milestone event payment under Section 6.3.2 above.

(b) One-Time Payment. Except as expressly provided under Section 6.3.2(a), each commercial milestone event payment by Licensee to Arvinas under this Section 6.3.2 shall be payable no more than once for a given Licensed Product. In no event shall the total amount to be paid by Licensee under this Section 6.3.2 for the achievement of commercial milestone events exceed Sixty Million U.S. dollars (US$60,000,000) for any given Licensed Product. For clarity, to the extent more than one commercial milestone event is achieved in a given calendar year for any given Licensed Product, then each applicable milestone event payment for each such achievement shall be due and owing in such calendar year.

6.3.3 Notice of Achievement. With respect to each development and regulatory milestone event under Section 6.3.1 above, Licensee (or its Sublicensee, if applicable) shall notify Arvinas in writing within [**] of the achievement of such event. With respect to each commercial milestone event under Section 6.3.2 above, Licensee (or its Sublicensee, if applicable) shall notify Arvinas in writing within [**] of the end of the calendar quarter in which such event was achieved.

6.4 Royalty Payments. Licensee shall pay Arvinas, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and country-by-country basis, the following royalties on Annual Net Sales of Licensed Products in a particular country(ies), where such Licensed Product is a Valid Claim Licensed Product or a Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product, as applicable, at the time of sale in such country(ies), by Licensee (or its Sublicensee hereunder), subject to the terms of this Section 6.4 and Section 6.5 and the payment provisions in Article 7 below:


Annual Net Sales (in US Dollars)		Royalty Rate (%)

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

(a) Valid Claim Licensed Product. The royalty obligations set forth in this Section 6.4 above will commence, on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis, upon the First Commercial Sale of the relevant Valid Claim Licensed Product, and expire, on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis, upon the expiration of the last to expire Valid Claim within the Payment-Based Valid Claims that Covers the sale of such Valid Claim Licensed Product in such country (“Valid Claim Licensed Product Royalty Term”). For clarity, if the last relevant Valid Claim Covering the sale of a Valid Claim Licensed Product in a particular country expires prior to the expiration of the corresponding Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product Royalty Term, royalties shall continue to be payable on the sales of such Licensed Product in such country pursuant to Section 6.4.1(b) to the extent such Licensed Product is a Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product for the remaining duration of the Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product Royalty Term.

(b) Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product. The royalty obligations set forth in this Section 6.4 above will commence, on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis, upon the First Commercial Sale of a Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product, and expire, on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis, upon the [**] anniversary of the date of First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country (“Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product Royalty Term”). For clarity, in the event a Valid Claim within the Payment-Based Valid Claims Covers the sale of a Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product and such Valid Claim first comes into existence in a particular country after the date of First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country, on the date of issuance of such Valid Claim, royalties shall continue to be payable on the sales of such Licensed Product pursuant to Section 6.4.1(a), at the rates set forth therein for the remaining duration of the Valid Claim Licensed Product Royalty Term. For purposes of calculating the [**] period above, for countries within the EU as of the relevant time, the [**] period shall commence upon First Commercial Sale within any country in the EU as constituted at the time of such First Commercial Sale.

6.4.2 Single Royalty. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, no more than one royalty payment shall be due under this Section 6.4 with respect to a sale of a particular Licensed Product in a particular country, and in no event shall Licensee owe royalties to Arvinas under both Sections 6.4.1(a) and 6.4.1(b) for the same sale of such Licensed Product in a particular country. For clarity, multiple royalties shall not be payable because the sale of a particular Valid Claim Licensed Product is Covered by more than one (1) Valid Claim within the Payment-Based Valid Claims in the country in which such Licensed Product is sold.

6.4.3 Apportionment of Compulsory Sublicensee Consideration. For clarity, any sales by Compulsory Sublicensees under a Compulsory Sublicense shall not themselves be considered as Net Sales. Any payments, however, paid to Licensee from a Compulsory Sublicensee of a Licensed Product for the sale of such Licensed Product shall be added to Net Sales for the relevant Licensed Product in the relevant country and period, and royalty payments shall be due thereon in accordance with this Section 6.4 and subject to Section 6.5 at the royalty rate that would otherwise be payable for the Licensed Product in the applicable country based on such provisions.

As necessary, appropriate payment adjustments or true-ups shall be made in the case, for example, where there is a delay in the availability of the applicable IMS or other volume data.

6.5.3 Licensed Product Competition. Upon the first commercial sale of a Competitive Version of a Licensed Product in the Field that is a Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product in a particular country in the Territory, the following shall apply: if the aggregate unit sales of all Competitive Version(s) in such country over a period of [**] exceed

6.6 Rights Following Expiration of Payment Obligations. Upon expiry of its payment obligations hereunder with respect to a Licensed Product in the Field in a particular country in the Territory, the licenses and rights under this Agreement shall become non-exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty-free and irrevocable with respect to such Licensed Product in the Field in such country in the Territory.

8.2 Ownership.

8.2.1 As between the Parties, all right, title and interest to Know-How and other intellectual property (together with all Patents and other intellectual property rights therein) made in the course of performing activities under this Agreement (“New Intellectual Property”) (i) by or on behalf of Arvinas or any of its Affiliates, without the inventive contribution of any representative of Licensee or any of its Affiliates, shall be owned by Arvinas (“Arvinas New Intellectual Property”), (ii) by or on behalf of Licensee or any of Licensee’s Affiliates, without the inventive contribution of any representative of Arvinas or any of its Affiliates, shall be owned by Genentech (“Genentech New Intellectual Property”) and (iii) jointly with the inventive contribution of representatives of Arvinas or any of its Affiliates and of Genentech or any of its Affiliates shall be jointly owned by Arvinas and Genentech (“Joint New Intellectual Property”).

Subject to the licenses granted in Sections 3.3 (Exclusive License) and 3.5 (Non-Exclusive Grantback License) and 8.2.7 (Non-Exclusive New Intellectual Property License), each Party may exploit fully the Joint New Intellectual Property, in any field, and may grant licenses and sublicenses under the Joint New Intellectual Property without the consent of and without accounting to the other Party; provided that such right shall not be deemed to imply any license under any other Patent(s) Controlled by the other Party that would be infringed by such activity. Further, subject to the license grants and covenants hereunder and only in accordance with any restrictions hereunder, each Party may transfer or encumber its ownership interest in and to the Joint New Intellectual Property without the consent of and without accounting to the other Party.

8.2.5 Assignment; Further Assurances. The assignments necessary to accomplish the ownership provisions set forth in this Section 8.2 are hereby made, and each Party shall execute such further documentation as may be necessary or appropriate, and provide reasonable assistance and cooperation, to implement the provisions of this Section 8.2. Accordingly:

(a) In the event Joint New Intellectual Property was made by or on behalf of either Party or any of its Affiliates, such Party (the “Assignor”), hereby assigns to the other Party (“Assignee”) such right, title and interest in and to such Joint New Intellectual Property as is required to effectuate joint ownership thereof in accordance with Section 8.2.

(b) Each Party agrees to execute such documents, render such assistance, and take such other action as the other Party may reasonably request, to apply for, register, perfect, confirm, and protect the other Party’s rights in any New Intellectual Property retained or assigned to the other Party in this Section 8.2.

(c) Each Party shall require all of its employees, Affiliates and any Third Parties working pursuant to this Agreement on its behalf, to assign (or otherwise convey rights) to such Party any New Intellectual Property made by such employee, Affiliate or Third Party in the course of performing activities hereunder, and to cooperate with such Party in connection with obtaining intellectual property protection therefor.

8.2.6 Inventorship. The determination of inventive contribution by or on behalf of a Party with respect to New Intellectual Property for purposes of determining ownership as set forth above shall be made in accordance with the laws of inventorship under United States patent law. In the event of a dispute between the Parties over inventorship of New Intellectual Property, the Parties shall refer such dispute to a mutually acceptable patent counsel to determine inventorship, and shall use all reasonable efforts to do so in an efficient and expedient manner.

8.2.7 Non-Exclusive New Intellectual Property License. In consideration of the rights granted under this Section 8.2:

(a) Arvinas hereby grants to Licensee a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid-up license, with the right to grant sublicenses, through one or more tiers of sublicensees, under any Arvinas New Intellectual Property (including any Deliverables New Intellectual Property) to the extent that it relates to a modification of or improvement to a Genentech Compound, or to a product (other than a Licensed Product) containing such a Genentech Compound or a modification of or improvement thereto, and/or the manufacture, use and/or formulation thereof, to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, and import such Genentech Compounds or products; and

(b) Arvinas hereby grants to Licensee a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid-up license, with the right to grant sublicenses, through one or more tiers of sublicensees, under any Know-How within the Arvinas New Intellectual Property (including any Deliverables New Intellectual Property) to the extent that it relates to a [**], to use such Know-How to make, use, sell, offer for sale, and import products containing or otherwise incorporating [**]. For clarity, such license does not include rights under any Arvinas Patent. Licensee shall not, and shall have no right to, alone or through any Third Party, exercise or sublicense the license granted under this Section 8.2.7(b) unless and until Genentech has exercised its first Option with respect to an Exclusive Target in accordance with Section 3.2 above.

8.3 Patent Prosecution and Maintenance. Subject to this Section 8.3, as between the Parties, each Party shall have the sole right to Prosecute and Maintain Patents that such Party owns or controls independently of the other Party (as determined in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise). The Parties agree that, in the event that Genentech has exercised its first Option with respect to an Exclusive Target in accordance with Section 3.2 above, the provisions set forth in this Section 8.3 below shall apply and the Parties shall consult with each other as to potential strategies to Prosecute and Maintain Patents with respect to Licensed PROTACs and Licensed Products with the goal to obtain Patent protection of Licensed PROTACs, as a whole [**], directed to Exclusive Targets as further set forth below.

8.3.1 Joint New Intellectual Property and Deliverables New Intellectual Property.


		58


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

(a) First Right. Genentech shall, at its sole discretion and expense, have the right (but not the obligation) to Prosecute and Maintain Patents claiming Joint New Intellectual Property and Patents claiming the Deliverables New Intellectual Property. In accordance with Section 8.3.4 below, Genentech shall appropriately consult with Arvinas and keep Arvinas reasonably informed of the status of any such Prosecution and Maintenance, and Arvinas will provide all reasonable cooperation and assistance to Genentech at Genentech’s reasonable request and at Genentech’s expense in any such Prosecution and Maintenance of the Joint New Intellectual Property and Deliverables New Intellectual Property, including making data, reports, and scientific personnel reasonably available to prepare and prosecute patent applications.

(b) Back Up Right. If Genentech elects not to Prosecute and Maintain any Patent within the Joint New Intellectual Property or Deliverables New Intellectual Property pursuant to Section 8.3.1(a) in any country, then Genentech shall provide at least [**] written notice to Arvinas. Thereafter, upon Genentech’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, Arvinas shall have the right, but not the obligation, to Prosecute and Maintain any said Patents in such country(ies), at its sole expense and in its sole discretion; provided that in accordance with Section 8.3.4 below, Arvinas shall appropriately consult with Genentech and keep Genentech reasonably informed of the status of any such Prosecution and Maintenance. Genentech will provide all reasonable cooperation and assistance to Arvinas at Arvinas’ reasonable request and at Arvinas’ expense in any such Prosecution and Maintenance. The ownership or license rights of either Party shall not be affected, notwithstanding any such transfer of Prosecution and Maintenance of said Patents.

8.3.2 Arvinas Patents. Arvinas shall have the sole and exclusive right, at its discretion and expense, to Prosecute and Maintain Patents within the Arvinas Intellectual Property (other than Joint New Intellectual Property and Deliverables New Intellectual Property, which shall be Prosecuted and Maintained pursuant to Section 8.3.1 above); provided that Arvinas shall not file any patent application that expressly claims or otherwise discloses the Deliverables, Optimization Deliverables, or any PROTAC or Product that in either case contains a Genentech Compound without the prior written consent of Genentech, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In accordance with Section 8.3.4 below, Arvinas shall appropriately consult with Genentech with respect to any such Prosecution or Maintenance to the extent relevant to Licensed PROTACs or Licensed Products directed to Exclusive Targets or to Licensee’s rights under Sections 3.3 or 8.2.7(a) of this Agreement.

8.3.3 Interferences Between the Parties. If an interference or derivation proceeding is declared by the US Patent and Trademark Office between one or more of the Patents within the Joint New Intellectual Property, Deliverables New Intellectual Property or other Arvinas Intellectual Property or otherwise Controlled by Licensee and such declared interference or derivation proceeding does not involve any Patents owned by a Third Party, then the Parties shall in good faith establish a mutually agreeable process to resolve such interference or derivation proceeding in a reasonable manner in conformance with all applicable legal standards.

8.3.4 Consultation. In each case with respect to the Prosecution and Maintenance of Joint New Intellectual Property or Deliverables New Intellectual Property or other Arvinas Intellectual Property to the extent relevant to Licensed PROTACs or Licensed Products directed to Exclusive Targets or to Licensee’s rights under Sections 3.3 or 8.2.7(a) of this Agreement, the filing or prosecuting Party, as provided above and as relevant (“Filing Party”) shall appropriately consult with the other Party (“Non-Filing Party”) and keep the Non-Filing Party reasonably informed of the status of any such Prosecution and Maintenance as follows:

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

The Filing Party shall give the Non-Filing Party an opportunity to review the text of any application before filing, shall consult with the Non-Filing Party with respect thereto, and shall supply the Non-Filing Party with a copy of the application as filed, together with notice of its filing date and serial number. The Filing Party shall keep the Non-Filing Party advised of the status of the actual and prospective patent filings and, upon the Non-Filing Party’s request, shall provide advance copies of any papers related to the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such patent filings. The Filing Party shall regularly provide the other Party with copies of all material submissions and correspondence with the patent offices, in sufficient time to allow for review and comment by the Non-Filing Party. The Filing Party will provide the Non-Filing Party and its patent counsel with an opportunity to consult with the Filing Party and its patent counsel regarding the filing and contents of patent applications, amendments, submissions or responses, and the advice and suggestions of the Non-Filing Party and its patent counsel shall be taken into consideration in good faith by the Filing Party and its patent counsel. Each Party agrees to execute and deliver, at the reasonable request and sole expense of the Filing Party all papers, instruments and assignments, and to perform any other reasonable acts as the Filing Party may require, in order for such Party to pursue relevant patent applications in accordance with this Section 8.3. Each Party shall promptly give notice to the other Party of the grant, lapse, revocation, surrender, invalidation or abandonment of any Patent for which such Party is responsible under this Section 8.3 for Prosecution and Maintenance. With respect to all filings hereunder, the Filing Party (as of the relevant time such cost or expense is incurred) shall be responsible for payment of all costs and expenses related to such filings.

The Parties shall discuss in good faith whether to segregate filings on New Intellectual Property such that Patents do not claim both Deliverables New Intellectual Property and other Arvinas New Intellectual Property or Joint New Intellectual Property, or whether consolidated filings would be preferred.

In addition, and notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Genentech agrees that it will not file any patent application claiming any invention within the Deliverables or Optimization Deliverables or in which a representative of Arvinas is a named inventor, which includes Xx. Xxxxx Xxxxx, without prior consultation with Arvinas as set forth under this Section 8.3.4.

8.4 Enforcement Rights for Infringement by Third Parties.

8.4.1 Notice. Except with respect to Paragraph IV Claims (which shall be enforced pursuant to Section 8.5 below), each Party shall promptly notify, in writing, the other Party upon learning of (a) any actual or suspected infringement or misappropriation of the Joint New Intellectual Property or Deliverables New Intellectual Property, or (b) any actual or suspected infringement or misappropriation of any other Arvinas Intellectual Property to the extent relevant to Licensee’s rights under Sections 3.3 or 8.2.7(a) of this Agreement this Agreement, or (c) except for matters that are subject to Section 8.3.3 above, any declaratory judgment action or similar claim of invalidity, unenforceability, or non-infringement of the Joint New Intellectual Property, Deliverables New Intellectual Property or such other Arvinas Intellectual Property (each, an “Infringement”). At the request of the Party receiving such notice, the other Party shall provide all evidence in its possession pertaining to the actual or suspected Infringement that it can disclose without breach of a pre-existing obligation to a Third Party or waiver of privilege.

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

8.4.2 Enforcement Actions. The Parties shall consult as to potential strategies to terminate suspected or potential Infringement, consistent with the overall goals of this Agreement. If the Parties fail to agree on such strategies:

(a) Genentech or its designee shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to seek to xxxxx any actual or suspected Infringement by a Third Party, or to file suit against any Third Party for Infringement, in each case of any Joint New Intellectual Property or Deliverables New Intellectual Property, at its own expense, in its own name and under its own direction and control. If Genentech or its designee does not initiate any such action within [**] of any written request by Arvinas for Genentech or its designee to do so following consultation in accordance with this Section 8.4.2, Arvinas shall have the right, but not the obligation, to take action to enforce against such Infringement under such Joint New Intellectual Property or Deliverables New Intellectual Property, at its own expense, in its own name and under its own direction and control; provided that if Genentech or its designee is pursuing in xxxxxxx ongoing settlement discussions at the end of such [**] period, then Arvinas shall not be permitted to exercise such right unless such settlement discussions cease without reaching settlement or Genentech or its designee ceases to pursue such discussions in xxxxxxx.

(b) Arvinas shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to seek to xxxxx any actual or suspected Infringement by a Third Party, or to file suit against any Third Party for Infringement, in each case of any Arvinas Intellectual Property (other than Joint New Intellectual Property and Deliverables New Intellectual Property, which shall be subject to Section 8.4.2(a) above), at its own expense, in its own name and under its own direction and control; provided that if such Infringement is also an Infringement of any Joint New Intellectual Property or Deliverables New Intellectual Property, then the Parties shall consult as to potential strategies to terminate suspected or potential Infringement with respect to such New Intellectual Property in accordance with Section 8.4.2(a) prior to initiating any such action with respect to any such Arvinas Intellectual Property in accordance with this Section 8.4.2(b). With respect to any such action regarding an Infringement of any Arvinas Patent to the extent relevant to Licensee’s rights under Sections 3.3 or 8.2.7(a) of this Agreement, if Arvinas does not, within [**] of receipt of the relevant consultation in accordance with this Section 8.4.2, take steps to xxxxx the Infringement, or to file suit to enforce against such Infringement, then Genentech or its designee, subject to any relevant obligations under Section 11.2 of the Yale Agreement, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to take action to enforce against such Infringement under such Arvinas Patent but only to the extent directly relevant to Licensee’s rights with respect to an Exclusive Target under Sections 3.3 that Licensee is permitted to exercise or to Licensee’s rights under Section 8.2.7(a) of this Agreement, in each case at its own expense, in its own name and under its own direction and control; provided that if Arvinas is pursuing in xxxxxxx ongoing settlement discussions at the end of such [**] period, then Genentech or its designee shall not be permitted to exercise such right unless such settlement discussions cease without reaching settlement or Arvinas ceases to pursue such discussions in xxxxxxx.

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

(c) The non-controlling Party(ies) shall cooperate with the Party controlling any such action to xxxxx or enforce pursuant to this Section 8.4.2 (an “Enforcement Action”) (as may be reasonably requested by the controlling Party and at the controlling Party’s expense), including, if necessary, by being joined as a party, provided that the non-controlling Party shall be indemnified by the controlling Party as to any costs or expenses incurred, and shall have the right to be represented by its own counsel, at its own expense; provided that the controlling Party shall retain overall responsibility for the prosecution of such Enforcement Action in such event. The Party controlling any such action shall keep the other Party updated with respect to any such Enforcement Action, including providing copies of all documents received or filed in connection with any such Enforcement Action.

8.4.3 Settlement. The Party controlling any Enforcement Action, at its sole discretion, may take reasonable actions to terminate any alleged Infringement without litigation; provided, that if any such arrangement could reasonably be deemed to adversely affect the non-controlling Party’s rights (whether granted or retained) under this Agreement or to restrict the scope, or adversely affect the enforceability of the non-controlling Party’s Patents, or would require the consent of any Third Party licensor of such non-controlling Party, then that arrangement is subject to the non-controlling Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Party controlling any Enforcement Action may not settle or consent to an adverse judgment that could reasonably be deemed to adversely affect the non-controlling Party’s rights (whether granted or retained) under this Agreement or to restrict the scope, or adversely affect the enforceability of the non-controlling Party’s Patents without the express written consent of the non-controlling Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

8.4.4 Costs and expenses. The Party controlling any Enforcement Action shall bear all costs and expenses, including but not limited to litigation expenses, related to such Enforcement Action, except as expressly provided above.

8.4.5 Damages. Unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, and subject to the respective indemnity obligations of the Parties set forth in Article 12, all damages, amounts received in settlement, judgment or other monetary awards recovered in an Enforcement Action with respect to activities of the Third Party that occurred prior to the effective date of such award shall be shared as follows:

(a) first, to reimburse each Party (and their respective Third Party licensors or (sub)licensees joined as a party in such Enforcement Action) for all costs and expenses incurred by such Party related to such Enforcement Action, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees. If such recovery is insufficient to cover all such costs and expenses of both Parties, it shall be shared in proportion to the total of such costs and expenses incurred by each Party (and their respective Third Party licensors or (sub)licensees joined as a party in such Enforcement Action);

(b) If, after such reimbursement, any funds remain from such damages or other sums recovered, such funds shall be divided as follows: (i) if and to the extent awarded as lost sales, the amounts shall go to Licensee in reimbursement for lost sales (net of royalties thereon which shall be paid in accordance with Section 6.4 and subject to Section 6.5) and (ii) if and to the extent not awarded as lost sales, the amounts shall go to Licensee, with Arvinas being paid a royalty thereon at the Valid Claim Licensed Product rate as set forth under Section 6.4.


		62


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

For the avoidance of doubt, if any settlement results in Licensee granting to the alleged infringer a sublicense under the Joint New Intellectual Property, Deliverables New Intellectual Property or other Arvinas Intellectual Property with running royalties payable on post-settlement sales by the alleged infringer, such alleged infringer shall be deemed to be a Sublicensee of Licensee and such royalties on post-settlement sales (x) shall be subject to all applicable royalty obligations hereunder, and (y) shall not be subject to this Section 8.4.5; provided, that any upfront or event payments or the like shall be deemed special damages and subject to Section 8.4.5(b)(ii). In the event the sublicense agreement includes other intellectual property that is not subject of this Agreement, then Licensee shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to apportion such upfront, event payments and/or royalties pro-rata between such other intellectual property and such Joint New Intellectual Property, Deliverables New Intellectual Property or other Arvinas Intellectual Property.

8.5 Certification under Drug Price Competition and Patent Restoration Act.

8.5.1 Notice. If a Party becomes aware of any certification filed pursuant to 21 U.S.C. §355(b)(2)(A) or §355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV) or its successor provisions asserting that any Patents Controlled by Arvinas and/or Genentech Covering a Licensed PROTAC or Licensed Product directed to an Exclusive Target in the Field in the Territory are invalid or otherwise unenforceable, or that infringement of any such Patents will not arise from the manufacture, use, import or sale of a Product in the Field in the Territory by a Third Party (a “Paragraph IV Claim”), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing within [**] after its receipt thereof.

8.5.2 Control. Genentech shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to file suit against the relevant Third Party to enforce any and all Patents Controlled by Arvinas and/or Genentech included in a Paragraph IV Claim, at its own expense, in its own name (except as otherwise required under applicable Law) and under its own direction and control. If Genentech elects not to file suit against the relevant Third Party to enforce any Arvinas Patent named in a Paragraph IV Claim, then Genentech shall notify Arvinas as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than [**] before the first action required to file suit to enforce such Arvinas Patent in response to such Paragraph IV Claim, and Arvinas shall have the right, but not the obligation, to file suit to enforce such Arvinas Patent in response to such Paragraph IV Claim, at its own expense, in its own name (except as otherwise required under applicable Law) and under its own direction and control, but solely with respect to such Arvinas Patent.

8.5.3 The non-controlling Party(ies) shall cooperate with the Party controlling any such action to enforce pursuant to this Section 8.5 (an “Paragraph IV Action”) (as may be reasonably requested by the controlling Party and at the controlling Party’s expense), including, if necessary, by being joined as a party provided that the non-controlling Party shall be indemnified by the controlling Party as to any costs or expenses incurred, and shall have the right to be represented by its own counsel at its own expense; provided that the controlling Party shall retain overall responsibility for the prosecution of such Paragraph IV Action in such event. The controlling Party shall regularly provide to the non-controlling Party updates of such Paragraph


		63


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

IV Action and copies of all material filings and communications with respect to such Paragraph IV Action, in sufficient time to allow for review and comment by the non-controlling Party. The controlling Party shall provide the non-controlling Party and its litigation counsel with an opportunity to consult with the controlling Party and its litigation counsel regarding the filing and contents of material filings and communications with respect to such Paragraph IV Action, and the advice and suggestions of the non-controlling Party and its litigation counsel shall be taken into consideration in good faith by the controlling Party and its litigation counsel.

8.5.4 Settlement. The Party controlling any Paragraph IV Action, at its sole discretion, may take reasonable actions to settle such Paragraph IV Action; provided, that if any such arrangement could reasonably be deemed to adversely affect the non-controlling Party’s rights (whether granted or retained) under this Agreement or to restrict the scope, or adversely affect the enforceability of the non-controlling Party’s Patents, or would require the consent of any Third Party licensor of such non-controlling Party, then that arrangement is subject to the non-controlling Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Party controlling any Paragraph IV Action may not settle or consent to an adverse judgment that could reasonably be deemed to adversely affect the non-controlling Party’s rights (whether granted or retained) under this Agreement or to restrict the scope, or adversely affect the enforceability of the non-controlling Party’s Patents or the commercialization of a Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory, without the express written consent of the non-controlling Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

8.5.5 Any compensation recovered as a result of a Paragraph IV Action shall be allocated as set forth in Section 8.4.5 above, as applicable. For clarity, in the event neither Party files suit against the relevant Third Party with respect to a Paragraph IV Claim pursuant to this Section 8.5, any subsequent actual or threatened infringement or declaratory judgment action or similar claim of invalidity, unenforceability, or non-infringement with respect to Joint New Intellectual Property or other Arvinas Intellectual Property that is reasonably relevant to Licensee’s rights under this Agreement shall be considered an “Infringement” subject to Section 8.4 above.

8.6 Third Party Infringement Claims.

8.6.1 Notice. In the event that a Third Party shall make any claim, give notice, or bring any suit or other inter partes proceeding against any Licensee entity or Arvinas, or any of their respective Affiliates or (Sub)licensees or customers, for infringement or misappropriation of any intellectual property rights with respect to the research, development, making, using, selling, offering for sale, import or export of any Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory (“Third Party Infringement Claim”), in each case, the Party receiving notice of a Third Party Infringement Claim shall promptly notify the other Party and provide all evidence in its possession pertaining to the claim or suit that it can disclose without breach of a pre-existing obligation to a Third Party or waiver of privilege.


		64


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

8.6.2 Defense. The Parties shall consult, pursuant to a common joint defense agreement, as to potential strategies to defend against any Third Party Infringement Claim, consistent with the overall goals of this Agreement, including by being joined as a party. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in the defense of any Third Party Infringement Claim or raising of any counterclaim related thereto. If the Parties fail to agree on such strategies, and subject to the respective indemnity obligations of the Parties set forth in Article 12, Genentech or its designee shall be solely responsible for defending such Third Party Infringement Claim including but not limited to selection of counsel, venue, and directing all aspects, stages, motions, and proceedings of litigation. If Genentech or its designee does not, within [**] of receipt of a notice under Section 8.6.1, take steps to defend the Third Party Infringement Claim, then to the extent that such Third Party Infringement Claim is brought against Arvinas and relates to acts by or on behalf of Arvinas under a Research Program or an Optimization Program or in breach of this Agreement, Arvinas shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend against such Third Party Infringement Claim; provided that if Genentech or its designee is pursuing in xxxxxxx ongoing settlement discussions at the end of such [**] period, then Arvinas shall not be permitted to exercise such right unless such settlement discussions cease without reaching settlement or Genentech or its designee ceases to pursue such discussions in xxxxxxx. At the controlling Party’s request and expense, the non-controlling Party(ies) shall cooperate with the controlling Party in connection with any such defense, provided that the non-controlling Party(ies) shall be indemnified by the controlling Party as to any costs or expenses, and shall have the right to be represented by its own counsel but at its own expense. Any counterclaim or other similar action by a Party, to the extent such action involves any enforcement of rights under Joint New Intellectual Property, Deliverables New Intellectual Property or other Arvinas Intellectual Property, will be treated as an Enforcement Action subject to Section 8.4 above.

8.6.3 Settlement. If any defense action against a Third Party Infringement Claim pursuant to Section 8.6.2 above would adversely affect the other Party’s rights under this Agreement or impose a financial obligation upon the other Party or grant rights in respect, or affect the validity or enforceability, of the other Party’s Patents, then any settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of such Third Party Infringement Claim shall not be entered into without the consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

8.6.4 Costs and Expenses. The Party controlling the defense of any Third Party Infringement Claim shall bear all costs and expenses, including but not limited to litigation expenses, to defend against any Third Party Infringement Claim, except as expressly provided above.

8.7 Attorney-Client Privilege. Neither Party is waiving, nor shall be deemed to have waived or diminished, any of its attorney work product protections, attorney-client privileges or similar protections and privileges or the like as a result of disclosing information pursuant to this Agreement, or any of its Confidential Information (including Confidential Information related to pending or threatened litigation) to the receiving Party, regardless of whether the disclosing Party has asserted, or is or may be entitled to assert, such privileges and protections. The Parties: (a) share a common legal and commercial interest in such disclosure that is subject to such privileges and protections; (b) are or may become joint defendants in proceedings to which the information covered by such protections and privileges relates; (c) intend that such privileges and protections remain intact should either Party become subject to any actual or threatened proceeding to which the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information covered by such protections and privileges relates; and (d) intend that after the Original Effective Date both the receiving Party and the disclosing Party shall have the right to assert such protections and privileges.

8.8 Patent Challenges. For the purposes of this Section 8.8, a “Yale Patent Challenge” shall mean any action or proceeding (including any patent opposition or re-examination proceeding) challenging or denying the validity, patentability, and/or enforceability of any of the “LICENSED PATENTS” (as defined in the Yale Agreement) under which a Yale Patent Sublicensee is a SUBLICENSEE (as defined in the Yale Agreement) in a court of competent jurisdiction or with any governmental agency with authority over such LICENSED PATENTS anywhere in the world; and a “Yale Patent Sublicensee” shall mean Licensee or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees. Except to the extent the following is unenforceable under the Laws of a particular jurisdiction, in the event that (i) any Yale Patent Sublicensee brings a Yale Patent Challenge anywhere in the world, or (ii) any Yale Patent Sublicensee knowingly assists another party in bringing a Yale Patent Challenge anywhere in the world (except as required under a court order or subpoena), then the following would apply:

8.8.1 During the pendency of such Yale Patent Challenge and thereafter solely to the extent provided in Section 8.8.3, in addition to any amounts due from Licensee to Arvinas pursuant to Article 6 of this Agreement (which shall remain payable as further described below), Genentech shall pay directly to Yale, on behalf of Arvinas, [**] percent ([**]%) of the royalties due from Arvinas to Yale under the Yale Agreement with respect to all Net Sales of Licensed Products by Licensee, its Affiliates or Sublicensees (defined below as “Yale Royalties”) on or after the date of such Yale Patent Challenge, provided that if a first sale to a Third Party of any Licensed Product on which royalties are owed to Arvinas hereunder has not been made by any Yale Patent Sublicensee in any country prior to the commencement of such Yale Patent Challenge, Genentech shall, until such first sale occurs, pay directly to Yale, within [**] of the date of such Yale Patent Challenge and on or before each anniversary of the date of such Yale Patent Challenge which occurs prior to such first sale, an amount equal to [**] U.S. dollars (US$[**]), which is based on the license maintenance royalty due to Yale from Arvinas pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Yale Agreement. Unless otherwise provided in Section 8.8.2, the payments described above shall be made to Yale in accordance with Sections 7.3, 7.4.2, 7.7, 7.8, 7.9 and 7.11 of this Agreement, but to Yale and for the benefit of Yale, and to an account designated by Yale in writing. For clarity, such payments shall be due from Genentech in addition to any obligation of Arvinas to pay Yale such amounts as are due under the Yale Agreement and to the obligation of Genentech to pay Arvinas any amounts due under this Agreement, in each case based on the development and commercialization of Licensed Products by Licensee, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, and all such payments shall be due without any other penalty that may be assessed on such amounts or other payments due from Arvinas to Yale under the Yale Agreement as a result of a Yale Patent Challenge.

For reference purposes, the royalties due from Arvinas to Yale under the Yale Agreement with respect to Net Sales of Licensed Products by Licensee, its Affiliates or Sublicensees (“Yale Royalties”) are as follows: [**] percent ([**]%) on Net Sales of Licensed Products directed to Exclusive Targets that are VALID CLAIM PRODUCTS (as defined in the Yale Agreement) and [**] percent ([**]%) of Licensed Products directed to Exclusive Targets that are MEANINGFULLY INVOLVED PRODUCTS (as defined in the Yale Agreement), subject to certain qualifications regarding a CHANGE OF CONTROL (as defined in the Yale Agreement)

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

of Arvinas whose status Arvinas shall clarify to Genentech in writing upon written request of Genentech to do so as of the relevant time, provided that in the event that Arvinas is not owed any royalty pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Licensed Product under this Agreement that is either a VALID CLAIM PRODUCT or a MEANINGFULLY INVOLVED PRODUCT under the Yale Agreement, Genentech shall not owe any royalty thereon to Yale pursuant to this Section 8.8.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Net Sales of any Deliverables Know-How Licensed Product that is either a MEANINGFULLY INVOLVED PRODUCT or a VALID CLAIM PRODUCT under the Yale Agreement on which EARNED ROYALTIES are owed from Arvinas to Yale under the Yale Agreement, Genentech shall be obligated to pay to Yale pursuant to this Section 8.8.1, as part of the Yale Royalties, [**] percent ([**]%) of the corresponding royalty amount owed to Arvinas pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Net Sales of any such Licensed Product.

8.8.2 Genentech shall have the right, during the pendency of such Yale Patent Challenge, to pay any or all amounts due directly from Genentech to Yale under Section 8.8.1 above (or portion thereof) into an interest-bearing escrow account to be held pending Determination of such Yale Patent Challenge; provided that all such amounts escrowed, together with any interest accrued thereon, shall be paid over directly to Yale, on behalf of Arvinas, or returned to Genentech, as appropriate, upon the Determination of such Yale Patent Challenge as further set forth below. Arvinas acknowledges and agrees that such payments made into escrow shall satisfy Genentech’s direct payment obligations under Section 8.8.1 above as if such payments were made directly to Yale on behalf of Arvinas (and Genentech shall not be in breach of this Agreement, nor shall any licenses granted to Genentech under this Agreement terminate, as a result of Genentech making such payments into escrow). For clarity, the amounts to be paid by Arvinas to Yale under this Agreement shall continue to be paid directly to Yale and not into escrow. For the purposes of this Section 8.8, a “Determination” shall mean any final judgment, final agency determination or final arbitration award, or, if applicable, voluntary dismissal of the Yale Patent Challenge, in each case, from which no appeal may be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction or with any governmental agency with authority over such LICENSED PATENTS anywhere in the world.

8.8.3 If such Yale Patent Challenge results in a Determination that at least one of the claims of the LICENSED PATENTS that has been challenged in such Yale Patent Challenge is valid, patentable, enforceable and infringed, then the following would apply:

(a) All amounts escrowed pursuant to Section 8.8.2 above, together with any interest accrued thereon, shall be paid over directly to Yale, on behalf of Arvinas.

(b) For the remainder of the term of the Yale Agreement, in addition to any amounts due from Licensee to Arvinas pursuant to Article 6 of this Agreement (which shall remain payable to Arvinas as further described in Section 8.8.1), Genentech shall continue to pay directly to Yale, on behalf of Arvinas, the amounts due from Genentech to Yale pursuant to Section 8.8.1 above.

(c) Genentech shall promptly reimburse Yale, on behalf of Arvinas, for all reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with such Yale Patent Challenge.

8.8.4 If such Yale Patent Challenge results in a determination that all of the claims of the LICENSED PATENTS that have been challenged in such Yale Patent Challenge are invalid, unpatentable, unenforceable and/or not infringed, then the following would apply:

(a) All amounts escrowed pursuant to Section 8.8.2 above, together with any interest accrued thereon, shall be returned to Genentech.

(b) Except as provided under Section 8.8.4(a) above, Genentech will have no right to recoup any payments made prior to such Determination.

8.8.5 In addition, Genentech hereby agrees that no Yale Patent Sublicensee shall bring a Yale Patent Challenge without first providing to Arvinas and Yale at least [**] prior written notice setting forth the claims and patents that are being challenged or claimed not to be infringed.

8.9 Patent Marking. To the extent commercially feasible and consistent with Licensee’s business practices, Licensee shall use Diligent Efforts to xxxx, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to use Diligent Efforts to xxxx, each Licensed Product to be sold pursuant to this Agreement that is Covered by one or more “LICENSED PATENTS” (as defined in the Yale Agreement) with the number of each such LICENSED PATENT that applies to such Licensed Product.

ARTICLE 10

PUBLICITY; PUBLICATIONS; USE OF NAME

10.1 Releases by Arvinas. Subject to Section 10.4, Arvinas may not issue a press release or other public statement or announcement concerning this Agreement, the subject matter hereof, or the research, development, or commercial results of products hereunder (each, a “Release”) without the prior written consent of Genentech, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

10.5 Publications. Notwithstanding Sections 10.1 to 10.4, both Parties recognize that the publication or disclosure of papers, presentations, abstracts or any other written or oral presentations regarding results of and other information regarding the Licensed PROTACs or Licensed Products may be beneficial to both Parties, provided that such publications or presentations are subject to reasonable controls to protect Confidential Information, the patentability of inventions and other commercial considerations.

Genentech shall acknowledge Arvinas, as appropriate, in any publication that discloses Genentech’s use of the Licensed PROTACs or Licensed Products or the results thereof. For clarity, Genentech shall not be permitted to publish or otherwise disclose any Confidential Information of Arvinas, except as may be expressly permitted under this Agreement; and

(b) With respect to any paper or presentation proposed for disclosure by (i) Genentech which includes Confidential Information of Arvinas, or (ii) Arvinas which includes information relating to the Licensed PROTACs or Licensed Products directed to Exclusive Targets or otherwise includes Confidential Information of Genentech (in each case, the “Publishing Party”), the other Party shall have the right to review and approve any such proposed paper or presentation (the “Non-Publishing Party”). The Publishing Party shall submit to the Non-Publishing Party the proposed publication or presentation (including, without limitation, posters, slides, abstracts, manuscripts, marketing materials and written descriptions of oral presentations) at least [**] prior to the date of submission for publication or the date of presentation, whichever is earlier, of any of such submitted materials. The Non-Publishing Party shall review such submitted materials and respond to the Publishing Party as soon as reasonably possible, but in any case within [**] for abstracts) of receipt thereof. As requested by the Non-Publishing Party, the Publishing Party shall (a) delete from such proposed publication or presentation any Confidential Information of the Non-Publishing Party, (b) delay the date of such submission for publication or the date of such presentation for a period of time sufficiently long (but in no event longer than [**]) to permit the Non-Publishing Party to seek appropriate patent protection, or (c) as requested by Genentech as the Non-Publishing Party, modify such proposed publication or presentation for patent or business reasons. Once a publication has been approved by the Non-Publishing Party, the Publishing Party may make subsequent public disclosure of the contents of such publication without the further approval of the Non-Publishing Party; provided, such content is not presented with any new data or information or conclusions and/or in a form or manner that materially alters the subject matter therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Arvinas shall not submit for publication or presentation any paper or presentation that includes information relating to any Licensed PROTACs or Licensed Products that contain a Genentech Compound without the prior written consent of Genentech.

(h) Third Party Agreements. As of the Original Effective Date and as of the A&R Effective Date, other than those agreements listed on Exhibit 11.2(h) (collectively, “Existing Third Party Agreements”), there are no agreements between Arvinas or its Affiliates with any Third Parties (i) pursuant to which Arvinas or its Affiliate has obtained, or has a right to obtain, a license under the Arvinas Intellectual Property that is relevant to this Agreement or (ii) pursuant to which Arvinas or its Affiliate otherwise owes, or would otherwise owe, payments to a Third Party as a result of the activities conducted hereunder (whether by Arvinas or Genentech or their respective (sub)licensees), including the grant of rights and licenses under the Arvinas Intellectual Property to Licensee;

(i) Existing Third Party Agreements and Existing Liens.

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

Without limiting the foregoing, in the event an Existing Third Party Agreement terminates during the Term, any sublicense(s) granted from Arvinas to Licensee under any such Existing Third Party Agreement hereunder shall survive and any amounts that Licensee shall pay to such Third Party under such sublicense(s) for activities performed in accordance with this Agreement may be offset against any and all amounts otherwise payable by Licensee to Arvinas hereunder until fully offset.

For clarity, any sublicense from Yale that continues after termination of this Agreement pursuant to this subsection (j) shall continue during the negotiation of the terms and conditions of a direct license as contemplated in the above between Yale and the relevant Licensee, and Licensee’s obligations and responsibilities under any such direct license shall not be materially different than its obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement, provided that Licensee shall be responsible for a prorata share (based on the number of other licensees under the LICENSED PATENTS (as defined in the Yale Agreement) obligated to make such payments) of the license maintenance royalty due under Article 5.2 of the Yale Agreement and of patent expenses due under Article 10 of the Yale Agreement to the extent not previously paid by Arvinas.

ARTICLE 12

INDEMNIFICATION

12.1 Indemnification by Licensee. Subject to Section 12.3, Licensee agrees to defend Arvinas, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Arvinas Indemnitees”), and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Arvinas Indemnitees, from and against any liabilities, losses, costs, damages, fees or expenses payable to a Third Party, and reasonable attorney’s fees and other legal expenses with respect thereto arising out of any claim, action, lawsuit, or other proceeding (collectively, “Losses and Claims”) brought against any Arvinas Indemnitee by a Third Party resulting from: (a) the manufacture, use, handling, storage, sale or other disposition of any Licensed PROTAC or Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory by Licensee, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, including product liability claims, (b) any breach by Licensee of any of its representations, warranties or obligations under this Agreement or breach by Licensee, prior to the A&R Effective Date, of any of its representations, warranties or obligations under the Original Agreement, or (c) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Licensee or its Affiliates or Sublicensees; except in any such case to the extent such Losses and Claims result from: (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Arvinas Indemnitee, or (ii) any breach by Arvinas of any of its representations, warranties or obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

12.2 Indemnification by Arvinas. Subject to Section 12.3, Arvinas agrees to defend Licensee, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Licensee Indemnitees”), and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Licensee Indemnitees, from and against any Losses and Claims brought against any Licensee Indemnitee by a Third Party resulting from: (a) the performance by Arvinas, its Affiliates or its subcontractors of its activities under a Research Program or under an Optimization Program, (b) the manufacture, use, handling, storage, sale or other disposition of any Grantback Product by Arvinas, its Affiliates or (sub)licensees, including product liability claims, (c) any breach by Arvinas of any of its representations, warranties or obligations under this Agreement or breach by Arvinas, prior to the A&R Effective Date, of any of its representations, warranties or obligations under the Original Agreement, or (d) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Arvinas Indemnitee.

12.3 Procedure. If any Arvinas Indemnitee or Licensee Indemnitee (each, an “Indemnitee”) intends to claim indemnification under this Article 12, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) of any Losses and Claims for which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification, and the Indemnitor shall assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnitor and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. Any Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnitee (and, for clarity, not to be included in Losses and Claims); provided, however, if the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded, based upon a written opinion from outside legal counsel, that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in the defense of such action, then the Indemnitor shall pay the fees and expenses of one law firm serving as counsel for the Indemnitee and Indemnitor in relation to such Third Party Claim.


		77


CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

The Indemnitor shall have the right to settle or compromise any claims for which it is providing indemnification under this Article 12, provided that the consent of the Indemnitee (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required in the event any such settlement or compromise would adversely affect the interests of the Indemnitee. The indemnity agreement in this Article 12 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnitor. The failure to deliver notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to the Indemnitor’s ability to defend such action, shall relieve such Indemnitor of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Article 12, but the omission so to deliver notice to the Indemnitor shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any Indemnitee otherwise under this Article 12. The Indemnitee under this Article 12, its employees and agents, shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any action, claim or liability covered by this indemnification. It is understood that only Genentech, Roche (if a Licensee) and Arvinas may claim indemnity under this Agreement (on its own behalf or on behalf of its Indemnitees), and other Indemnitees may not directly claim indemnity hereunder.

12.4 Insurance.

12.4.1 Insurance Coverage. Subject to Section 12.4.4, each Party shall obtain and maintain comprehensive general liability insurance customary in the industry for companies of similar size conducting similar business.

12.4.2 Evidence of Insurance. Within [**] of signing this Agreement, each Party shall provide the other Party with its certificate of insurance evidencing the insurance coverage set forth Section 12.4.1. Each Party shall provide to the other Party at least [**] prior written notice of any cancellation, non-renewal or material change in any of such insurance coverage.

12.4.3 Product / Clinical Trial Liability Insurance: Commencing not later than [**] prior to the first use in humans of the first Licensed Product by Licensee or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees, Licensee or its relevant Affiliate shall have and maintain such type and amounts of Products / Clinical Trial Liability insurance covering the development, manufacture, use and sale of Licensed Products as is normal and customary in the industry generally for parties similarly situated, but, in any event, with a minimum combined single limit per occurrence for products / clinical trials liability as follows: (a) a minimum limit of [**] dollars ($[**]) for any period during which Licensee or any of its Sublicensees is conducting a clinical trial(s) with any Licensed Product(s); and (b) a minimum limit of [**] dollars ($[**]) for any period during which Licensee or any of its Sublicensees is selling any Licensed Product(s).

TERM; TERMINATION

13.1 Term.

Either Party may terminate this Agreement, with respect to a particular Exclusive Target, or in its entirety, by written notice to the other Party for any material breach of this Agreement, with respect to such Exclusive Target, or in its entirety, respectively, by the other Party if, in the case of remediable breach, such material breach is not cured within [**] for payment defaults) after the breaching Party receives written notice of such breach from the non-breaching Party; provided, that if such breach is not capable of being cured within such [**] period, the cure period shall be extended for such amount of time that the Parties may agree in writing is reasonably necessary to cure such breach, so long as (1) the breaching Party is making diligent efforts to do so, and (2) the Parties agree on an extension within such [**] period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the allegedly breaching Party in good faith either disputes (i) whether a breach is material or has occurred or (ii) the alleged failure to cure or remedy such material breach, and provides written notice of that dispute to the other Party within the above time periods, then the matter will be addressed under the dispute resolution provisions in Article 14, and the notifying Party may not so terminate this Agreement until it has been determined under Article 14 that the allegedly breaching Party is in material breach of this Agreement, and such breaching Party further fails to cure such breach within [**] (or such longer period as determined by the arbiter of such dispute resolution) after the conclusion of that dispute resolution procedure.

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Arvinas has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.2 due to a material breach by Licensee, and if such breach relates solely to a given Exclusive Target and/or the related Licensed Product, Arvinas may only terminate this Agreement with respect to such Exclusive Target and Arvinas may not terminate this Agreement in its entirety.

13.3 Termination by Either Party for Insolvency or Bankruptcy. Either Party may terminate this Agreement effective on written notice to the other Party upon the liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, insolvency, bankruptcy, or filing of any petition therefor, appointment of a receiver, custodian or trustee, or any other similar proceeding, by or of the other Party where such petition, appointment or similar proceeding is not dismissed or vacated within ninety (90) calendar days. All rights and licenses granted pursuant to this Agreement are, for purposes of Section 365(n) of Title 11 of the United States Code or any foreign equivalents thereof (as used in this Section 13.3, “Title 11”), licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined in Title 11. Each Party in its capacity as a licensor hereunder agrees that, in the event of the commencement of bankruptcy proceedings by or against such bankrupt Party under Title 11, (a) the other Party, in its capacity as a licensee of rights under this Agreement, shall retain and may fully exercise all of such licensed rights under this Agreement (including as provided in this Section 13.3) and all of its rights and elections under Title 11 and (b) the other Party shall be entitled to a complete duplicate of all embodiments of such intellectual property, and such embodiments, if not already in its possession, shall be promptly delivered to the other Party (i) upon any such commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding, unless the bankrupt Party elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) if not delivered under (i), immediately upon the rejection of this Agreement by or on behalf of the bankrupt Party.

13.4 Permissive Termination. Licensee shall also have the right to permissively terminate this Agreement with respect to a particular Exclusive Target, or in its entirety, in its sole discretion, at any time by providing written notice to Arvinas, such termination to be effective sixty (60) days after such notice. Upon any termination made pursuant to or in accordance with this Section 13.4, such Target shall no longer be designated as an “Exclusive Target”, and all rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement with respect to such Target shall terminate, except as provided under Sections 2.6 and 13.5, as applicable.

13.5 Effects of Termination.

13.5.1 Effects of Termination in General.

(a) Accrued Rights and Obligations. Expiration or termination of this Agreement, with respect to a particular Exclusive Target, or in its entirety, for any reason shall not release either Party hereto from any liability which, as of the effective date of such expiration or termination, had already accrued to the other Party or which is attributable to a period prior to such termination, nor preclude either Party from pursuing any rights and remedies it may have hereunder or at law or in equity which accrued or are based upon any event occurring prior to the effective date of such expiration or termination.

(b) Termination of Licenses. Upon termination of this Agreement:

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

(i) with respect to a particular Exclusive Target or in its entirety (x) by Arvinas pursuant to Section 13.2 or Section 13.3, or (y) by Licensee pursuant to Section 13.4, any relevant Research Term(s) and Optimization Term(s) shall terminate and all licenses under this Agreement (other than as set forth in Section 13.5.2) with respect to such Exclusive Target and related Licensed Products, or with respect to all Exclusive Targets and all Licensed Products, as applicable, shall terminate, as of the effective date of such termination; and

(ii) with respect to a particular Exclusive Target or in its entirety by Licensee pursuant to Section 13.2 or Section 13.3, any relevant Research Term(s) and Optimization Term(s) shall terminate and all licenses under this Agreement (other than as set forth in Section 13.5.2) with respect to such Exclusive Target and related Licensed Products, or with respect to all Exclusive Targets and all Licensed Products, as applicable, shall terminate, as of the effective date of such termination; provided, however, that Licensee may, with respect to any Exclusive Target for which an Option has been exercised pursuant to Section 3.2, and if elected by Licensee in writing prior to such termination date, retain its license under Section 3.3 with respect to the relevant Exclusive Target, Licensed PROTACs and Licensed Products in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If Licensee so elects to retain its license with respect to the relevant Exclusive Target under this Section 13.5.1(b)(ii), then [**]. For clarity, nothing in the foregoing shall preclude any other rights or remedies available to Licensee under this Agreement or at law or in equity against Arvinas for the breach that gave rise to a termination by Licensee pursuant to Section 13.2.

(c) Continuation of Sublicenses. Upon termination by Arvinas of this Agreement with respect to a particular Exclusive Target or in its entirety pursuant to Section 13.2, all relevant sublicenses with respect to such Exclusive Target and related Licensed Products, or with respect to all Exclusive Targets and all Licensed Products, as applicable, shall also terminate; provided, however, that if the relevant Sublicensee is not then in breach of its sublicense agreement with Licensee such that Licensee would have the right to terminate such sublicense agreement, and if the Sublicensee did not cause the breach that gave rise to a termination by Arvinas pursuant to Section 13.2, then the relevant sublicense shall continue in full force and effect as a direct license from Arvinas to the relevant Sublicensee under terms and conditions consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement that are applicable to such Sublicensee, except that (i) the scope of the relevant Sublicensee’s rights with respect to the Arvinas Intellectual Property shall remain the same as set forth in its sublicense agreement with Licensee; and (ii) the relevant Sublicensee shall be responsible to Arvinas for payments otherwise payable to Arvinas by Licensee under this Agreement based upon the exercise by the Sublicensee of its rights under the Arvinas Intellectual Property after such termination solely to the extent the payments become due and payable after termination of this Agreement under the payment terms herein.

Arvinas shall enter into such direct license under terms and conditions consistent with the foregoing with the relevant Sublicensee in a timely manner; provided that Arvinas shall not be obligated to assume any obligations under such direct license that are greater than the obligations contained within this Agreement. For clarity, any sublicense that continues after termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section above shall continue during the negotiation of the terms and conditions of a direct license as contemplated in this Section above between Arvinas and the relevant Sublicensee.

(e) Inventory at Termination. In the event that the licenses under Section 3.3 terminate with respect to a particular Exclusive Target or all Exclusive Targets, Licensee, its Affiliates and its permitted Sublicensees shall have, for a period of [**] following such termination, the right to sell or otherwise dispose of all inventory of the related Licensed Products directed to such Exclusive Target(s) in all countries then in its stock, subject to the applicable royalty payments due under Section 6.4 and subject to Section 6.5 of this Agreement, and any other applicable provisions of this Agreement, and Arvinas covenants not to xxx Licensee or its permitted Sublicensee for infringement under any of the Patents that were licensed by Arvinas to Licensee immediately prior to such termination with respect to such activities conducted by Licensee or its permitted Sublicensee pursuant to this Section 13.5.1(e).

Except as expressly set forth under this Article 13, upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement with respect to a particular Exclusive Target or in its entirety, all rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Exclusive Target and related Licensed Products or all Exclusive Targets and all Licensed Products, as applicable. For clarity, with respect to the expiration or termination of this Agreement with respect to a particular Exclusive Target, only those rights and obligations specific to such Exclusive Target and related Licensed Products shall terminate and other rights and obligations that are not specific to such Exclusive Target and related Licensed Products shall continue in full force and effect unless and until such rights and obligations expire or terminate in accordance with this Agreement.

14.1 Disputes. Arvinas and Licensee recognize that a dispute, controversy or claim of any nature whatsoever arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof, (each, a “Dispute”) may from time to time arise during the Term. Unless otherwise specifically recited in this Agreement, such Disputes between Arvinas and Licensee will be resolved as recited in this Article 14. In the event of the occurrence of such a Dispute, the Parties shall first refer such Dispute to their respective Alliance Managers for attempted resolution by such Alliance Managers within [**] after such referral. If such Dispute is not resolved within such [**] period, either Arvinas and Licensee may, by written notice to the other, have such Dispute referred to their respective officers designated below, or their respective designees, for attempted resolution by within [**] after such notice is received. Such designated officers are as follows:

For Licensee – [**]

For Arvinas – [**]

In the event the designated officers, or their respective designees, are not able to resolve such dispute within [**] of such other Party’s receipt of such written notice, either Party may initiate the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 14.2.

14.2 Arbitration.

14.2.1 Rules. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement (including under Section 14.3), the Parties agree that any Dispute not resolved internally by the Parties pursuant to Section 14.1 shall be resolved through binding arbitration conducted by the International Chamber of Commerce in accordance with the then prevailing Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (for purposes of this Article 14, the “Rules”), except as modified in this Agreement, applying the substantive law specified in Section 15.1.

14.2.2 Arbitrators; Location. Each Party shall, within [**] of the initiation of the arbitration, select one (1) arbitrator, and the two (2) arbitrators so selected shall choose a third arbitrator within [**] of their election. All three (3) arbitrators shall serve as neutrals and have at least ten (10) years of (a) dispute resolution experience (including judicial experience) and/or (b) legal or business experience in the biotech or pharmaceutical industry. In any event, at least one (1) arbitrator shall satisfy the foregoing experience requirement under clause (b).

14.2.3 Procedures; Awards. Within [**] after the designation of the arbitrators, the arbitrators and the Parties shall meet, and each Party shall provide to the arbitrators a written summary of all disputed issues, such Party’s position on such disputed issues and such Party’s proposed ruling on the merits of each such issue. The arbitrators shall set a date for a hearing, which shall be no later than [**] after the submission of written proposals pursuant to the preceding sentence, for the presentation of evidence and legal argument concerning each of the issues identified by the Parties. The Parties shall have the right to be represented by counsel. Each Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to make all of its current employees available, if reasonably needed, and agrees that the arbitrators may determine any person as necessary. The arbitrators shall be instructed and required to render a written, binding, non-appealable resolution and award on each issue that clearly states the basis upon which such resolution and award is made. The written resolution and award shall be delivered to the Parties as expeditiously as possible, but in no event more than [**] after conclusion of the hearing, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties. Judgment upon such award may be entered in any competent court or application may be made to any competent court for judicial acceptance of such an award and order for enforcement.

14.2.4 Costs. The prevailing Party, as determined by the arbitrators, shall be entitled to (a) its share of fees and expenses of the arbitrators and (b) its attorneys’ fees and associated costs and expenses. In determining which Party “prevailed,” the arbitrators shall consider (i) the significance, including the financial impact, of the claims prevailed upon and (ii) the scope of claims prevailed upon, in comparison to the total scope of the claims at issue. If the arbitrators determine that, given the scope of the arbitration, neither Party “prevailed,” the arbitrators shall order that the Parties (1) share equally the fees and expenses of the arbitrators and (2) bear their own attorneys’ fees and associated costs and expenses.

14.2.5 Interim Equitable Relief. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 14.2, in the event that a Party reasonably requires relief on a more expedited basis than would be possible pursuant to the procedure set forth in this Article 14, such Party may seek a temporary injunction or other interim equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction pending the ability of the arbitrators to review the decision under this Section 14.2. Such court shall have no jurisdiction or ability to resolve Disputes beyond the specific issue of temporary injunction or other interim equitable relief.

14.2.6 Protective Orders; Arbitrability. At the request of either Party, the arbitrators shall enter an appropriate protective order to maintain the confidentiality of information produced or exchanged in the course of the arbitration proceedings.

1. Genentech Materials. “Genentech Materials” means, with respect to an Exclusive Target, (a) those chemical or biological materials, other than Genentech Compounds, provided by Genentech or Licensee to Arvinas for use (i) in the relevant Research Program pursuant to this Agreement to be used for evaluation of Stage I and Stage II activity in such Research Program, or (ii) in the relevant Optimization Program pursuant to this Agreement, and/or (b) any modifications or derivatives of such materials in clauses (a)(i) or (ii) above.

Arvinas Inks Strategic License Agreement with Genentech

Total deal value potentially worth more than $300M if initial targets are successful

New Haven, CT, XXXX, 0000 – Arvinas, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Arvinas LLC), a private biotechnology company creating a new class of drugs based on targeted protein degradation, entered into a license agreement with Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, for the development of new therapeutics using Arvinas’ novel PROTAC technology. The multi-year strategic license agreement encompasses multiple disease targets.

Under the terms of the agreement, Arvinas will receive an undisclosed upfront payment. Arvinas is eligible to receive development and commercialization milestone payments in excess of $300 million based on achievement of certain predetermined milestones. In addition, Arvinas is eligible to receive tiered-royalties on sales of products resulting from the license agreement. Full financial terms have not been disclosed. At Genentech’s discretion, it may elect to expand the collaboration to include additional disease targets for additional consideration.

“We are thrilled to be working with Genentech, a proven expert in drug discovery and development with world class ability to manufacture and commercialize state-of-the-art therapies,” said Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, M.D., President and CEO of Arvinas. “Our PROTAC technology represents a completely novel approach to the targeted therapy of cancer and many other diseases, and we are delighted to be working with Genentech on their targets of interest.”

“Genentech has one of the premier R&D organizations in the industry and I am particularly looking forward to working with them to explore fully the potential of our PROTAC protein degradation technology,” commented Xxxxx Xxxxx, Ph.D., the L.B. Cullman Professor of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at Yale University and Arvinas Chief Scientific Advisor.

PROTACs, or proteolysis-targeting chimeras, are bifunctional small molecules that are designed to target proteins for degradation and removal from a cell. These molecules are intended to induce a cell’s own protein-degradation machinery to bind to a particular protein and “label” it for degradation, thus removing that protein from the system entirely. This contrasts to a more traditional drug development approach that inhibits proteins, which provides transient benefit and works on about a quarter of the body’s proteins. Arvinas’ approach has the potential to radically expand the number of disease-causing proteins that can be targeted.

Xxxxx Xxxxx, M.D., Ph.D., Senior Vice President of Global Head of Genentech Partnering, commented, “Genentech is very interested in protein degradation as a therapeutic approach to address difficult disease targets. Arvinas’s PROTAC technology offers an exciting opportunity to harness the body’s own system to degrade pathogenic proteins.”

About Arvinas

Arvinas is a pharmaceutical company focused on developing new small molecules aimed at degrading disease-causing cellular proteins. We are translating these innovative protein degradation approaches into novel drugs for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. Many diseases are a result of “rogue,” uncontrolled proteins, whose absence could bring great clinical benefit to patients. To address these pathological intracellular proteins, Arvinas is developing a new drug paradigm based on the elimination of these proteins. Our innovative protein degradation technology uses small molecule drugs to ”tag” specific proteins to be degraded by the ubiquitin/proteasome system (UPS), which is responsible for the normal turnover of most proteins within the cell.

Based on groundbreaking research conducted at Yale University by our Founder and Chief Scientific Advisor, Xxxxx Xxxxx, PhD, Arvinas has developed a platform technology to induce the loss of intracellular proteins: Proteolysis-Targeting Chimera (PROTAC). The ability of PROTAC-based drugs to induce protein degradation (instead of protein inhibition) offers the advantage of potentially targeting “undruggable” as well as “druggable” elements of the proteome. This greatly expands our ability to create drugs for many new, previously unapproachable targets. For more information, visit xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx.

Arvinas Expands Strategic License Agreement with Genentech

Expansion of 2015 agreement brings total deal value to potentially exceed $650 million

NEW HAVEN, Conn., November xx, 2017 – Arvinas LLC, a private biotechnology company creating a new class of drugs based on protein degradation, today announced it has expanded its ongoing license agreement with Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, for the development of new therapeutics using Arvinas’ novel PROTAC technology. The multi-year strategic license agreement, initiated in October 2015, will encompass additional disease targets and expand the collaboration.

Under the revised terms of the agreement, Arvinas is eligible to receive development and commercialization milestone payments in excess of $650 million based on achievement of certain predetermined milestones. In addition, Arvinas is eligible to receive tiered-royalties on sales of products resulting from the license agreement. Full financial terms have not been disclosed.

“Genentech’s decision to expand our original agreement to include additional disease targets shows the promise seen in our first two years together and further supports our targeted protein degradation platform as a novel drug modality to treat a broad array of diseases,” said Xxxx Xxxxxxx, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Arvinas. “This expansion also supports our initial decision to work with Genentech in 2015 and we look forward to this growing collaboration.”

The PROTAC Platform offers potential improvements over traditional small molecule inhibitors using the ubiquitin and proteasome system within a cell to degrade disease causing proteins. By removing target proteins directly rather than inhibiting them, PROTACs can provide multiple advantages over small molecule inhibitors, which can require high systemic exposure to achieve sufficient inhibition, often resulting in toxic side effects and eventual drug resistance.
