(f) Legal Clearance and Launch.
(i) The Parties agree that Mylan may[***] Launch (on a country-by-country basis) any Product without obtaining Momenta’s prior consent after the Product has obtained Final Legal Clearance in such country. Prior to the Product obtaining Final Legal Clearance in any country, Mylan may[***] Launch such Product in such country without obtaining Momenta’s prior consent solely by following the process described in subsections (ii) — (v) of this Section 2.4(f).
(ii) Relevant Patents.
(1) At least [***] ([***]) [***] prior to the anticipated Launch of a Product in a country as indicated in the most recent Commercialization Plan (“Anticipated Launch Date”), [***] shall meet and discuss any Patent Rights of the Innovator covering the applicable Reference Product and any Patent Rights of a Third Party patent owner or exclusive licensee of a Biosimilar that is a Competing Product of such Product in such country, in each case that may be potentially infringed by the composition, manufacture, use, marketing, importation or sale of the Product.
(2) Any such Patent Rights identified by Momenta, [***], to Mylan by written notice at least [***] ([***]) [***] prior to the Anticipated Launch Date [***] based on the [***] of such Product shall be referred to as “Identified Patent Rights”.
(3) Momenta may update the Identified Patent Rights, by providing written notice of such update to Mylan, at any time that is at least [***] ([***]) [***] prior to the Anticipated Launch Date solely to add any other Patent Rights that have issued or been licensed to the Innovator or such a Third Party patent owner or exclusive licensee of a Biosimilar that is a Competing Product of such Product in the applicable country, which raise, [***], a [***] based on the [***] of such Product; provided that such Patent Rights issue or were licensed to the Innovator or such a Third Party patent owner or exclusive licensee of a Biosimilar that is a Competing Product of such Product in the applicable country (A) on or after [***] ([***]) [***] prior to the Anticipated Launch Date and before such [***] ([***]) [***] notice date, or (B) prior to such [***] ([***]) [***] date if such issuance or license occurs or only became publicly known (or, if earlier, actually known to [***]) [***] ([***]) [***] or less prior to such [***] ([***]) [***] date (any such Identified Patent Rights added pursuant to this Section 2.4(f)(ii)(3) may also be referred to herein as, “Additional Identified Patent Rights”).
(iii) Beginning no earlier than [***] ([***]) [***] prior to the Anticipated Launch Date, on a country-by-country basis, if Mylan desires to Launch a Product in such country before such Product has obtained Final Legal Clearance in such country, then Mylan shall so notify Momenta in writing, and, along with such notice, Mylan shall provide Momenta with Mylan’s analysis and [***] assessment of such Launch in such country, including its [***] under Section [***], and [***] shall discuss the analysis and [***] assessment. Within [***] ([***]) [***] of receipt of such notice and assessment from Mylan, Momenta shall notify Mylan if Momenta consents to the Launch of such Product in such country. Such consent shall be subject to revision solely by a written notice provided by Momenta to Mylan together with,

Confidential Treatment Requested by Momenta Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
and as a result of, an update to the Identified Patent Rights made by Momenta pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(ii)(3), pursuant to which revision Momenta may withdraw its consent to the Launch of such Product in such country solely based on any Additional Identified Patent Rights, and such Additional Identified Patent Rights shall be the only ARL Identified Patents with respect to such Product in such country (such a revision, a “Consent Revision”).
(iv) If Momenta either consents to the Launch of such Product in such country, or if Momenta does not notify Mylan of Momenta’s consent within [***] ([***]) [***] of Momenta’s receipt of such notice and assessment from Mylan, then Mylan may Launch such Product in such country and the Profit Share Percentage with respect to such Product shall remain unchanged, unless Momenta revokes such consent in writing pursuant to a Consent Revision made in accordance with the last sentence of Section 2.4(f)(iii).
(v) If Momenta (A) notifies Mylan that Momenta does not consent to the Launch of such Product in such country within [***] ([***]) [***] of Momenta’s receipt of such notice and assessment from Mylan or (B) subsequently withdraws its consent to the Launch of such Product in such country pursuant to a Consent Revision made in accordance with the last sentence of Section 2.4(f)(iii), then Mylan may Launch such Product in such country; provided, however, that if Mylan Launches such Product in such country, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the following shall apply:
(1) The Profit Share Percentage of Mylan for such Product in such country will automatically and immediately increase to [***] percent ([***]%), and the Profit Share Percentage of Momenta for such Product in such country will automatically and immediately decrease to [***] percent ([***]%), in each case during the period between the Launch of such Product in such country and the Final Legal Clearance of such Product in such country. After the Final Legal Clearance of such Product in such country has been obtained, the Profit Share Percentage of Mylan and Momenta for such Product in such country will automatically and immediately each revert to fifty percent (50%), subject to paragraph 5 below.
(2) In consideration for the decrease in the Profit Share Percentage of Momenta described in Section 2.4(f)(v)(1), Momenta’s liability to Third Parties for infringement related to the Launch and Commercialization of such Product in such country during the period between the Launch of such Product and the Final Legal Clearance of such Product will be automatically and immediately limited as follows in subsections (3) — (4).
(3) As part of Momenta’s notifications (including any Consent Revision) described in Section 2.4(f)(v) (or any notification of Additional Identified Patent Rights pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(ii)(3)), Momenta shall identify in writing a list (or an updated list to add any such Additional Identified Patent Rights if an update notice is given solely in connection with and as a result of an update notification by Momenta pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(ii)(3)) of the Patent Rights within the Identified Patent Rights upon which Momenta has based its determination not to consent to Launch; provided that such list may not include any Patent Rights with respect to which either Party has been [***] based on such Product [***] Momenta’s notification of such Identified Patent Right pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(ii) unless Momenta provides notification of such Patent Rights as Identified Patent Rights no later than

(4) Mylan agrees to defend Momenta and its Affiliates, and their respective agents, directors, officers and employees (the “Momenta Indemnitees”), at Mylan’s cost and expense, and will indemnify and hold harmless the Momenta Indemnitees from and against any and all ARL Losses Momenta Indemnitees incur. “ARL Losses” means all Legal Expenses and Losses arising or resulting from any Claims against a Momenta Indemnitee or Mylan or its Affiliates or their respective agents, directors, officers and employees brought after Mylan’s receipt of Momenta’s notice in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii) and arising or resulting from [***], or [***], of the [***] with respect to the Launch or Commercialization of the Product in such country during the period between the Launch and the Final Legal Clearance of such Product, in each case solely with respect to the [***]. If any such Claim against any Momenta Indemnitee arises, Momenta shall promptly notify Mylan in writing of the Claim and Mylan shall manage and control, at its sole expense, the defense of the Claim and its settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no settlements of any such Claim shall be finalized without obtaining Momenta’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, except that in the case of a settlement that does not require an admission or action on the part of Momenta, and does not harm Momenta or its ability to comply with its obligations hereunder, Momenta’s consent shall not be required so long as Momenta is unconditionally released from all liability in such settlement, subject to reimbursement of [***] pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(v)(5) below. Momenta shall cooperate with Mylan and may, at its discretion and expense, be represented in any such action or proceeding. Mylan shall not be liable for any settlements, litigation costs or expenses incurred, or admissions made, by Momenta Indemnitees without Mylan’s written authorization. For clarity, any Legal Expenses arising or resulting from infringement, or alleged infringement based on the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Products, of Patent Rights other than the ARL Identified Patents shall not be subject to the indemnity set forth in this Section 2.4(f)(v)(4), and each Party shall be responsible for its Allocable Legal Expense Share of such Legal Expenses.
(5) Following Final Legal Clearance with respect to the ARL Identified Patents, Momenta shall reimburse Mylan for [***] percent ([***]%) of the [***] incurred by Mylan as set forth below in this Section 2.4(f)(v)(5). Such reimbursement shall be made by Momenta to Mylan on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis through a set-off against Profits payable each Calendar Quarter to Momenta for such Product in such country beginning with the first Calendar Quarter (or portion thereof) following the achievement of Final Legal Clearance with respect to the ARL Identified Patents for such Product in such country. Such set-off by Mylan shall not exceed (A) [***] percent ([***]%) of the Profits for such Product in such country otherwise payable to Momenta in the applicable Calendar Quarter until the amounts set-off by Mylan equal the amount of any Profits received by Momenta with respect to such Product prior to Final Legal Clearance and (B) thereafter, [***] percent ([***]) of the Profits for such Product in such country otherwise payable to Momenta in such Calendar Quarter. An example calculation of reimbursement of [***] is set forth in Exhibit 2.4(f).

Each Party shall submit any such press release or public disclosure to the other Party, and the receiving Party shall have [***] ([***]) [***] from receipt to review and approve any such press release or public disclosure, [***] or [***]. Notwithstanding the preceding requirements related to a press release or other public disclosure, if a public disclosure is required by Applicable Law, including without limitation in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the disclosing Party shall provide copies of the disclosure reasonably in advance (at least [***] ([***]) [***] for the [***] the [***]) of such filing or other disclosure for the non-disclosing Party’s prior review and comment. The first approval of the contents of a press release or public disclosure shall constitute permission to use such contents subsequently without submission of the press release or public disclosure to the other Party for approval.
7.3 Legally Required Disclosures. If the receiving Party or any of its representatives is required by Applicable Law or by order of a court of law, administrative agency, or other governmental body to disclose any of the Confidential Information of the other Party, the receiving Party will (a) promptly provide the disclosing Party with reasonable advance written notice to enable the disclosing Party the opportunity to seek, where appropriate, a protective order or to otherwise prevent or limit such legally required disclosure, (b) [***] to cooperate with the disclosing Party to obtain such protection, and (c) disclose only the legally required portion of the Confidential Information. Any such legally required disclosure will not relieve the receiving Party from its obligations under this Agreement to otherwise limit the disclosure and use of such information as Confidential Information.
7.4 Confidential Terms. Except as expressly provided herein, each Party agrees not to disclose the existence or any terms of this Agreement to any Third Party without the consent of the other Party; provided, however, that disclosures may be made on a strict need to know basis to actual or prospective investors, acquirers, financing sources or licensees, or to a Party’s accountants, attorneys and other professional advisors, subject to reasonable obligations of confidentiality.

Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, if an Affiliate or Sublicensee of a Party shall fail to agree to a reciprocal data sharing arrangement to the extent such Affiliate or Sublicensee’s data is necessary for purposes of this Agreement, such Affiliate or Sublicensee, as the case may be, shall not be entitled to receive the data of the other Party or its Affiliates or Sublicensees. Each Party agrees to grant to the other the right to reference any regulatory filing made by such Party with regard to a Product or any Regulatory Approval received by a Party with regard to a Product as the other Party believes may be useful or necessary for it to obtain Regulatory Approval to Commercialize such Product, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Each Party shall submit to the JSC for review and approval all proposed academic, scientific and medical publications and public presentations relating to a Product or any Development Activities under this Agreement for review in connection with preservation of related patent rights, and trade secrets to determine whether Confidential Information should be modified or deleted from the proposed publication or public presentation and to ensure compliance with the publications policy adopted by the JSC (the “Publications Policy”). Written copies of such proposed publications and presentations shall be submitted to the JSC no later than [***] ([***]) [***] before submission for publication or presentation and the JSC shall provide its comments with respect to such publications and presentations within [***] ([***]) [***] of its receipt of such written copy. The review period may be extended for an additional [***] ([***]) [***] if a representative of the non-publishing Party on the JSC can demonstrate a reasonable need for such extension including, but not limited to, the preparation and filing of patent applications. By mutual agreement of the Parties, this period may be further extended. The first approval of the contents of a proposed academic, scientific or medical publication or public presentation relating to a Product or any Development Activities under this Agreement shall, in each case, constitute permission to use such contents subsequently without submission to the other Party for approval.
7.7 Prior Confidentiality Agreements. The Parties are parties to a Mutual Confidential Disclosure Agreement dated [***] (the “Prior Confidentiality Agreement”). This Agreement, including this Article 7, shall supersede the Prior Confidentiality Agreement. All Confidential Information (as that term is defined in the Prior Confidentiality Agreement) disclosed pursuant to the Prior Confidentiality Agreement shall be considered Confidential Information under this Agreement, subject to the exceptions in Section 1.30.
7.8 Destruction of Confidential Information. Each Party shall destroy, at the other Party’s instruction, all Confidential Information of the other Party in its possession upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, or at the disclosing Party’s election and written request.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no settlements shall be finalized with respect to such Claim without obtaining Momenta’s prior written consent, [***] or [***], except that in the case of a settlement that does not require an admission or action on the part of Momenta, and does not harm Momenta or its ability to comply with its obligations hereunder, Momenta’s consent shall not be required so long as Momenta is unconditionally released from all liability in such settlement. Momenta shall cooperate with Mylan and may, [***] and [***], be represented in any such action or proceeding. Mylan shall not be liable for any settlements, litigation costs or expenses incurred, or admissions made, by Momenta Indemnitees without Mylan’s written authorization.

8.3 Apportionment.

8.4 Other Claims.

Appropriate indemnification or reimbursement shall be made by the Party bearing less than its Allocable Legal Expense Share to the other Party to effect the foregoing allocation of applicable Losses. If any such Claim arises, the Party against which (or against whose indemnitees) such Claim is brought shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of the Claim, and the [***] shall manage and control the defense of such Claim and its settlement (the “Defending Party”). In the event that the [***] fails to agree with respect to which Party shall be the Defending Party, the [***] shall be the Defending Party and shall manage and control, [***], the defense of the Claim and its settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no settlements shall be finalized without obtaining the other Party’s (the “Non-Defending Party”) prior written consent, [***] or [***], except that in the case of a settlement that does not require an admission or action on the part of the Non-Defending Party, and does not harm the Non-Defending Party or its ability to comply with its obligations hereunder, the Non-Defending Party’s consent shall not be required so long as it is unconditionally released from all liability in such settlement.

Such arbitration panel will have the sole responsibility of resolving such Disputed Matter from a proposal submitted by each Party under this Section 12.11(c), and no other disputed matters, claims or counterclaims will be permitted by the Parties in such arbitration. Within [***] ([***]) [***] after selection of such arbitration panel, each Party shall submit to the arbitration panel, and exchange with the other Party in accordance with a procedure to be established by the arbitration panel, its proposal for resolving such Disputed Matter.

Each arbitrator must have business or legal experience in the biosimilar or pharmaceutical industry. Decisions of the arbitrators that conform to the terms of this Section 12.11(c) shall be final and binding on the Parties, and judgment on the award so rendered may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties shall each bear or pay [***] the administrative costs and fees of the arbitration and the fees and costs of the arbitrators. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party is to bear or pay [***] or [***], and any other [***] and [***], and no such fees or costs [***].

(d) Patent Disputes. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as between the Parties, any and all issues regarding the validity and enforceability of any patent in a country within the Territory (“Patent Matters”) shall be determined in a court or other tribunal, as the case may be, of competent jurisdiction under the applicable patent laws of such country.

12.12 HSR Act. The Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to promptly obtain any clearance required under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (15 U.S.C. § 18a) (the “HSR Act”) for the consummation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Except for Article 7, none of the provisions of this Agreement (for clarity, including Section 10.6 and Section 10.9), shall remain in effect after such termination.
12.13 Third Party Beneficiaries. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Third Party, including without limitation any creditor of either Party hereto.

(Nasdaq: MNTA) to develop, manufacture and commercialize six of Momenta’s current biosimilar candidates, including Momenta’s biosimilar candidate, ORENCIA® (abatacept).
Mylan CEO Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx commented, “Mylan’s long-stated strategy has been to strategically invest in the long-term drivers of our future growth, both through our strong internal focus on R&D and through external collaboration with industry-leading partners. Biosimilars have long been one of these areas of important future growth, both for our company and our industry, given the rapidly growing market for biologic products, the undeniable patient need for more affordable versions of these life-saving medicines, and the attractive competitive landscape for the companies that are able to successfully bring these complex products at scale to the global market. This collaboration with Momenta, which is highly complementary to our partnership with Biocon, will position us as a definitive world leader in biosimilars, with a broad portfolio of 15 biosimilar/insulin analog generic products in development and the scale required to maximize investment in this area. Looking forward, Mylan will continue to expand and diversify its portfolio into such complex products, further differentiating us from other leading generics companies and establishing us at the forefront of the biologics space, while also ensuring we maintain one of the broadest, highest quality portfolios in our industry.
“This exciting collaboration with Momenta is focused on the next wave of biosimilar products and represents an important next step for Mylan, leveraging Momenta’s unique technology capabilities and Mylan’s strong science, biosimilar-development experience, operational excellence and expansive global commercial footprint. Importantly, this collaboration builds upon Mylan’s existing successful biologics and insulins collaboration with Biocon, which is focused on more near-term biosimilar opportunities. Through these partnerships, as well as the strong internal capabilities we have cultivated, Mylan is further expanding what is already one of the industry’s most robust and diverse biosimilar portfolios and helping to ensure we can deliver enhanced access to these critical products to patients around the world,” continued Xx. Xxxxxx.
Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, president and chief executive officer of Momenta Pharmaceuticals, said, “We are thrilled to welcome Mylan as our new collaboration partner for biosimilars. Our two companies have a common focus on building an industry-leading biosimilar portfolio that offers safe, effective and affordable products to the patients that need them. By combining Momenta’s proven capabilities in complex-product development and Mylan’s world-class global R&D, supply chain and commercial infrastructure, we are well positioned to become a strong

competitor in this developing field. Our joint vision is to bring high quality, cost-effective biosimilar products to markets worldwide, and we believe our success will deliver a strong return to our companies’ stakeholders.”
Under the agreement with Momenta, Mylan will make an up-front cash payment of $45 million and up to $200 million in contingent milestone-related payments to Momenta, with each company sharing equally in the costs and profits with respect to the products. The companies will be jointly responsible for product development, and Mylan will lead worldwide commercialization efforts. All other financial terms and product details remain confidential.
Mylan’s collaboration with Momenta builds upon Mylan’s existing biologics and insulin analog partnership with Biocon. The Biocon partnership includes six biosimilar programs (trastuzumab, pegfilgrastim, adalimumab, bevacizumab, etanercept and filgrastim) and three insulin analogs (glargine, lispro and aspart). Five of these biosimilar programs have successfully completed Phase I clinical trials, and four of the programs are in active Phase III testing. Mylan and Biocon plan on submitting three biosimilar applications and one insulin application in the U.S. and Europe in 2016. Mylan already has successfully launched its trastuzumab biosimilar product in India and other emerging markets.
Mylan President Xxxxx Xxxxx commented, “Mylan has been fully engaged in the development of biosimilars with our partner Biocon for the last six years. During that time, Mylan has cultivated strong experience and expertise in the development of biosimilar products, and is executing on our programs with the scientific and analytical rigor required to fulfill health-authority expectations. Based upon our proactive and informative interactions with global health authorities on our nine active programs, we are extremely optimistic about the strength of our current development programs with Biocon, and we look forward to deploying our expertise in our collaboration with Momenta.”
