(b) During the Retention Period, each Party shall cooperate with and afford, and shall cause its respective Group Members and use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to cooperate with and afford, to the other Party reasonable and timely access during normal business hours upon reasonable advance request to all Information (other than Information which is (i) protected from disclosure by the attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine, (ii) proprietary in nature, (iii) the subject of a confidentiality agreement between such Party and a third Person that prohibits disclosure to the other Party (provided, however, that if requested by the other Party, such Party shall use reasonable best efforts to seek a waiver of or other relief from such confidentiality agreement, it being understood that no Party shall be obligated to pay any consideration (or otherwise incur any Liability or obligation) therefor to any third Person from whom any such waiver is sought (unless such Party is fully reimbursed or otherwise made whole by the requesting Party)), or (iv) prohibited from disclosure under applicable Law (any such Information described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), “Restricted Information”)) owned by such Party or one of its Group Members or within such Party’s or any of its respective Group Member’s or Representative’s possession which is created prior to the Distribution Date and which relates to the requesting Party’s (the “Requestor”) business, assets or liabilities, and such access is reasonably required by the Requestor (A) to comply with requirements imposed on the Requestor by any Law or Governmental Authority (including to make any Required Disclosure), (B) for use in preparation for or the prosecution or defense of any Action (except for any Action between the Parties or any of their respective Group Members), (C) to satisfy audit, accounting, Tax or similar requirements, (D) to obtain insurance, or (E) to comply with the Requestor’s obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document. As used in this Agreement, “access” shall mean the obligation of a Party in possession of Information (the “Possessor”) requested by the Requestor to exert reasonable best efforts to locate all requested Information that is owned and/or possessed by Possessor or any respective Group Members or Representatives. The Possessor, at its own expense, shall conduct a diligent search designed to identify all requested Information and shall collect all such Information for inspection by the Requestor during normal business hours at the Possessor’s place of business. Subject to such confidentiality and/or security obligations as the Possessor may reasonably deem necessary, the Requestor may have all requested Information duplicated at Requestor’s expense. Alternatively, the Possessor may choose to deliver, at the Requestor’s expense, all requested Information to the Requestor in the form requested by the Requestor. The Possessor shall notify the Requestor in writing at the time of delivery if such Information is to be returned to the Possessor. In such case, the Requestor shall return such Information when no longer needed to the Possessor at the Possessor’s expense. In connection with providing Information pursuant to this Section 4.3, each Party shall, upon the request of the other Party and
upon reasonable advance notice, make available during normal business hours its respective employees (and those employees of its respective Group Members and Representatives, as applicable) to the extent that they are reasonably necessary to discuss and explain all requested Information with and to the Requestor.
Section 4.4 Record Retention. During the Retention Period, R&DCo shall, and R&DCo shall cause each of the other R&DCo Group Members to, adopt and comply with a record retention policy with respect to Information owned by or in the possession of the R&DCo Group and which is created prior to the Distribution Date that is no less stringent than Ikaria’s record retention policy in effect as of the Distribution Date. During the Retention Period, Ikaria shall, and shall cause each of the other Ikaria Group Members to, maintain a record retention policy with respect to Information owned by or in the possession of the Ikaria Group and which is created prior to the Distribution Date that is no less stringent than Ikaria’s record retention policy in effect as of the Distribution. Each Party shall, at its sole cost and expense, preserve and retain all Information in its respective possession or control that the other Party has the right to access pursuant to Section 4.3 or that it is required to preserve and retain in accordance with such record retention policy for a minimum of seven years or for any longer period as may be required by (a) any Governmental Authority, (b) any litigation matter, (c) applicable Law, or (d) any Ancillary Document (as applicable, the “Retention Period”). If either Party wishes to dispose of any Information that it is obligated to retain under this Section 4.4 prior to the expiration of the Retention Period, then that Party shall first provide 45 days’ written notice to the other Party, and the other Party shall have the right, at its option but at the expense of the Party that desires to dispose of such Information, upon prior written notice within such 45-day period, to take possession of such Information within 90 days after the date of the notice provided pursuant to this Section 4.4. Written notice of intent to dispose of such Information shall include a description of the Information in detail sufficient to allow the other Party to reasonably assess its potential need to retain such materials.
Section 4.5 Production of Witnesses. After the Distribution, each Party shall use reasonable best efforts, and shall cause each of its respective Group Members to use reasonable best efforts, to make available to each other, upon written request, its past and present Representatives as witnesses to the extent that any such Representatives may reasonably be required (giving consideration to the business demands upon such Representatives) in connection with preparing for, defending or prosecuting any legal, administrative or other proceedings in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved. The obligation to provide witnesses pursuant to this Section 4.5 is intended to be interpreted in a manner so as to facilitate cooperation and shall include the obligation to provide as witnesses inventors and other officers without regard to whether the witness or the employer of the witness could assert a possible business conflict. In connection with any matter contemplated by this Section 4.5 or any Information provided under Section 4.3 for use in a litigation, the Parties will enter into a mutually acceptable joint defense agreement so as to maintain to the extent practicable any applicable attorney-client privilege or work product immunity of any member of any Group.
Section 4.6 Financial Statements and Accounting.
(a) The Parties agree to use their reasonable best efforts to complete, with the assistance of the Parties’ respective independent auditors, the Required R&DCo Financial Statements as promptly as practicable following the Distribution Date. For the avoidance of doubt, R&DCo (in consultation with its independent auditors) shall control the preparation and content of the Required R&DCo Financial Statements. In furtherance of the covenant set forth in the first sentence of this Section 4.6(a), Ikaria (i) shall and shall cause its Group Members and use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to provide access to all Information and (ii) shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its independent auditors to provide all assistance, in each case, as is reasonably required for purposes of completing the Required R&DCo Financial Statements in a timely manner.
(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 4.3 above, each Party agrees, on a timely basis, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance request of the other Party, to provide to the other Party and its Representatives and/or to provide the other Party and its Representatives with access to, all Information reasonably required in connection with (A) the closing of the books and the preparation and audit of each Party’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013, and (B) if and to the extent required under applicable Law: (I) each Party’s management assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, (II) the audit thereof by such Party’s independent auditors and (III) each Party’s management assessment of disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2013 (the items described in the foregoing subclauses (I) through (III), the “Control Assessments and Audit”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party will provide all required financial and other Information with respect to itself and its Group Members to its independent auditors within a sufficient and reasonable time and in reasonably sufficient detail to permit its independent auditors to take all steps and perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance to the other Party’s independent auditors with respect to Information to be included or contained in the other Party’s annual financial statements and to permit such other Party’s independent auditors and management to complete the Control Assessments and Audit, if and to the extent required under applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.6(b) shall not require either Party to provide the other Party with any Restricted Information.
(c) Each Party (the “First Party”) authorizes its respective independent auditors (the “First Party’s Auditors”) to make available to the other Party’s independent auditors (the “Other Party’s Auditors”) both the personnel who performed, or are performing, the annual audit of the First Party for the year ended December 31, 2013 and work papers related to such annual audit, within a reasonable time prior to the First Party’s Auditors’ opinion date, so that the Other Party’s Auditors are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of the First Party’s Auditors as it relates to the Other Party’s Auditors’ report on the other Party’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, all within sufficient time to enable the other Party to meet its timetable for the issuance and dissemination of such financial statements.
Section 4.7 Reimbursement. Unless otherwise provided in this Article 4, each Party providing access to Information or witnesses to the other Party pursuant to Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5
or 4.6(a) or (b) shall be entitled to receive from the receiving Party, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payment for all reasonable costs and expenses (including allocated compensation, salary and overhead expenses) as may be reasonably incurred in providing such Information or witnesses. In furtherance of the foregoing, (a) R&DCo shall be liable for reimbursing Ikaria for the reasonable costs and expenses of Ikaria’s Auditors incurred by Ikaria in connection with the preparation of the Required R&DCo Financial Statements and (b) Ikaria shall be liable for reimbursing R&DCo for the reasonable costs and expenses of R&DCo’s Auditors incurred by R&DCo in connection with the assistance provided by the R&DCo Auditors pursuant to Section 4.6(c).
Section 4.8 Other Agreements Regarding Access to Information. The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Article 4 are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange or confidential treatment of Information set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document.
Section 4.9 Limitations of Liability. Except as otherwise provided in Article 6, no Person shall have any Liability in the event that any Information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Agreement is found to be inaccurate in the absence of willful misconduct by the Person providing such Information.

Section 6.3 Claim Procedure.
(a) Claim Notice. A Person that seeks indemnity under this Article 6 (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”), whether the Damages sought arise from matters solely between the Parties or from Third-Party Claims. With respect to matters solely between the Parties, the Claim Notice must contain (i) a description and, to the extent known, estimated amount (the “Claimed Amount”) of any Damages incurred or reasonably expected to
be incurred by the Indemnified Party, (ii) a reasonable explanation of the basis for the Claim Notice to the extent of facts then known by the Indemnified Party, and (iii) a demand for payment of those Damages. No delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay or deficiency or the amount of any associated Damages is increased by such delay or deficiency.
(b) Response to Notice of Claim. Within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice with respect to a matter solely between the Parties, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response in which the Indemnifying Party shall either: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount and, in which case, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the Claimed Amount in accordance with a payment and distribution method reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; or (ii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all or any portion of the Claimed Amount.
(c) Contested Claims. In the event that the Indemnifying Party disputes the Claimed Amount, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Article 7. Upon ultimate resolution thereof, the Parties shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to comply therewith.
(d) Third-Party Claims.
(i) In the event that the Indemnified Party receives notice or otherwise learns of the assertion by a Person who is not a member of either Group of any claim or the commencement of any Action (any such claim or Action, a “Third-Party Claim”) with respect to which the Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Article 6, the Indemnified Party shall give written notification to the Indemnifying Party of the Third-Party Claim. Such notification shall be given promptly after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third-Party Claim, shall be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation submitted by such third party (to the extent then in the possession of the Indemnified Party) and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such Third-Party Claim and the amount of the claimed Damages (to the extent they can be reasonably estimated by the Indemnified Party based on available information); provided, however, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay or deficiency or to the extent the amount of any associated Damages is increased by such delay or deficiency. If, and for so long as, (A) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days, after delivery of such notification that the Indemnifying Party does not dispute the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify hereunder and desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim, and (B) the Third-Party Claim (I) does not involve criminal liability or any admission of wrongdoing, (II) does not seek equitable relief or any other material non-monetary remedy against the Indemnified Party, (III) does not involve a claim which the Indemnified Party reasonably believes would have a material and adverse effect on the Indemnified Party’s business or (IV) is not one in which the Indemnifying Party is also a party and, in the opinion of the Indemnified Party’s outside counsel,
joint representation would be inappropriate or there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, then except as hereinafter provided, such Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend against such Third-Party Claim by appropriate proceedings with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, which proceedings shall be promptly settled or diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion. During any period in which the Indemnifying Party has not so assumed control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense and is hereby authorized (but not obligated) prior to and during such period to file any motion, answer or other pleading and to take any other action which the Indemnified Party shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect the Indemnified Party’s interests.
(ii) The Party not controlling such defense (the “Non-controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party concludes, upon advice of counsel, that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such Third-Party Claim, the reasonable fees and expenses of one additional counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement. The Party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) shall keep the Non-controlling Party reasonably advised of the status of such Third-Party Claim and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. Subject to receiving a confidentiality undertaking from the Controlling Party and any redactions that the Non-controlling Party determines are advisable for purposes of maintaining privilege, the Non-controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such Information as it may have with respect to such Third-Party Claim (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such Party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third-Party Claim.
(iii) The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that the consent of the Indemnified Party shall not be required if (A) such settlement involves only the payment of monetary damages and the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment, (B) such settlement or judgment includes a full, complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates from further Liability and (C) such settlement involves no admission of wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Section 6.4 Survival; Limitations.
(a) All covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive each of the Separation and the Distribution. The rights and obligations of Xxxxxx,
R&DCo and each of their respective Indemnified Parties under this Agreement shall survive the sale, assignment or other transfer by any Party of any Assets, businesses or Liabilities, or the change of form or change of control of any Party.
(b) The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from any third Person (including amounts actually recovered under insurance policies) with respect to such Damages (net of all costs and expenses, including collection costs and any retention amounts or increases in premiums). An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provision hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto.
(c) Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the Parties agree that any indemnification payments made by one Party to another Party pursuant to this Agreement after the Distribution shall, to the extent permissible under applicable law, be treated for all Tax and financial accounting purposes as contributions or distributions, as appropriate, made immediately prior to the Distribution. If it is determined that the receipt or accrual of any indemnification payment is subject to Tax, such payment shall be increased so that the amount of such increased payment reduced by the amount of all Taxes payable with respect to the receipt thereof (but taking into account all correlative Tax deductions resulting from the payment of the applicable Damages that gave rise to such indemnification payment) shall equal the amount of the payment which the Party receiving such payment would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement.
(d) Notwithstanding the joint and several indemnification obligations of each Group as set forth in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, the Parties agree that the indemnification obligation of any Ikaria Group Member or R&DCo Group Member, as applicable, for Damages shall be satisfied by a direct payment from Ikaria or R&DCo, as applicable, to the other Party irrespective of which Group Member is found liable for Damages.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent the Employee Matters Agreement specifically provides indemnification with respect to certain employee-related R&DCo Liabilities, the Employee Matters Agreement shall govern with respect to that indemnification. To the extent indemnification is not provided in the Employee Matters Agreement, the indemnification terms of this Agreement shall govern.
(f) NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY DOCUMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS GROUP MEMBERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS SUFFERED BY AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DAMAGES ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT TO THE EXTENT AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY IS REQUIRED TO PAY ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS TO A PERSON WHO IS NOT A MEMBER OF EITHER GROUP IN
CONNECTION WITH A THIRD-PARTY CLAIM, OR INCURS ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS AS A RESULT OF RESTRICTIONS OR LIMITATIONS IMPOSED ON AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY BY THE FDA AS A RESULT OF THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF (INCLUDING THE PROVISION OF ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE BY) THE OTHER PARTY, SUCH DAMAGES SHALL CONSTITUTE DIRECT DAMAGES AND NOT SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 6.4(f).
(g) Notwithstanding a Party’s knowledge of any breach by the other Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any facts or circumstances potentially giving rise to a claim under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document (and regardless of how such Party shall have acquired such knowledge), such Party shall have the right to consummate the transactions provided for herein, and all of such Party’s rights and remedies shall be preserved without regard to its knowledge of such information.
(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to receive payment of Damages under this Agreement to the extent that such Indemnified Party has received payments in respect of such Damages pursuant to any rights to indemnification or otherwise under any Ancillary Documents.
Section 6.5 Non-Recourse. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity) that may be based upon, arise out of or related to this Agreement or any Ancillary Document, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or such Ancillary Document (including any representation or warranty made in connection with this Agreement or such Ancillary Document or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement or such Ancillary Document), may be made only against the Persons that are expressly identified as parties thereto. Except as provided for in Section 6.4, no Person who is not a named Party or is not named as a party to the applicable Ancillary Document, including any director, officer, employee, stockholder, member, Affiliate, agent or representative of any named Party or party to such Ancillary Document (“Non-Party Affiliates”), shall have any Liability (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or based upon any theory that seeks to impose Liability of an entity party against its owners or Affiliates) for any Liabilities arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or such Ancillary Document or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or such Ancillary Document or its negotiation or execution; and each Party waives and releases all such Liabilities against any such Non-Party Affiliates. Non-Party Affiliates are expressly intended as third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.5.

contemplated hereby on or prior to the date hereof), or the commercial or economic relationship of the parties relating hereto or thereto, between or among any Person in the Ikaria Group and any Person in the R&DCo Group.

In furtherance of the foregoing, any Party involved in a dispute, controversy or claim with respect to such matters (except any matters covered by the Transition Services Agreement) may deliver a notice (an “Escalation Notice”) demanding an in person meeting involving representatives of the Parties at a senior level of management of the Parties (or if the Parties agree, of the appropriate strategic business unit or division within such entity). A copy of any such Escalation Notice shall be given to the General Counsel, or like officer or official, of each Party (which copy shall state that it is an Escalation Notice pursuant to this Agreement). Any agenda, location or procedures for such discussions or negotiations between the Parties may be established by the Parties from time to time; provided, however, that the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to meet within 30 days of the Escalation Notice.
(b) If the Parties are not able to resolve the dispute, controversy or claim through the escalation process referred to above, then the matter shall be referred to mediation. The Parties shall retain a mediator to aid the Parties in their discussions and negotiations by informally providing advice to the Parties. Any opinion expressed by the mediator shall be strictly advisory and shall not be binding on the Parties, nor shall any opinion expressed by the mediator be admissible in any other proceeding. The mediator may be chosen from a list of mediators previously selected by the Parties or by other agreement of the Parties. Costs of the mediation shall be borne equally by the Parties, except that each Party shall be responsible for its own expenses. Mediation shall be a prerequisite to the commencement of any Action by either Party against any member of the other Party’s Group.
Section 7.3 Court Actions. In the event that any Party, after complying with the provisions set forth in Section 7.2 above, desires to commence an Action, such Party, subject to Section 8.2, may submit the dispute, controversy or claim (or such series of related disputes, controversies or claims) to any court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 8.2.
ARTICLE 8
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 8.1 Governing Law. The internal Laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule, whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction, that would cause the application of Laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware) shall govern the construction, interpretation and other matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and, unless expressly provided therein, each
Ancillary Document, and each of the exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto (whether arising in contract, tort, equity or otherwise).
Section 8.2 Jurisdiction. If any dispute, controversy or claim arises out of or in connection with this Agreement or any Ancillary Document, except as expressly contemplated by any Ancillary Document, the Parties irrevocably (and the Parties shall cause each other member of their respective Group to irrevocably) (a) consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, New Castle County, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, a federal court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware, (b) waive any objection to that choice of forum based on venue or to the effect that the forum is not convenient, and (c) WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL OR ADJUDICATION BY JURY. Either Party may make service on the other Party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the other Party at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 8.3. Nothing in this Section 8.2, however, shall affect the right to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law.
Section 8.3 Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly delivered (a) four Business Days after being sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (b) one Business Day after being sent for next Business Day delivery, fees prepaid, via a reputable nationwide overnight courier service, or (c) on the date of confirmation of receipt (or, the first Business Day following such receipt if the date of such receipt is not a Business Day) of transmission by facsimile, in each case to the intended recipient as set forth below.

Any party may give any notice or other communication hereunder using any other means (including personal delivery, messenger service, ordinary mail or electronic mail), but no such notice or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until it actually is received by the party for whom it is intended. Any party may change the address to which notices and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other parties notice in the manner herein set forth.
Section 8.4 Binding Effect and Assignment. This Agreement and each Ancillary Document binds and benefits the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Neither Party may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document without the written consent of the other Party and any assignment or attempted assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, either Party may, upon written notice, assign this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents (other than the R&D Cross License, which can only be assigned in accordance with its terms) in connection with a merger transaction in which such Party is not the surviving entity or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets; provided that the surviving party or acquirer in such transaction agrees in writing to assume and be bound by all of such Party’s obligations hereunder.
Section 8.5 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or thereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the
event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Parties agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that shall achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.
Section 8.6 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that either Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document, in each case without posting a bond or undertaking, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it shall not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that (a) the Party seeking such remedy has an adequate remedy at law or (b) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.
Section 8.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Ancillary Documents and each of the exhibits and schedules appended hereto and thereto, constitutes the final agreement between the Parties, and is the complete and exclusive statement of the Parties’ agreement on the matters contained herein and therein. All prior and contemporaneous negotiations and agreements between the Parties with respect to the matters contained herein and therein are superseded by this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, as applicable. In the event of any conflict between (a) any provision in this Agreement, on the one hand, and (b) any specific provision in any Ancillary Document, on the other hand, pertaining to the subject matter of such Ancillary Document, the specific provisions in such Ancillary Document shall control over the provisions in this Agreement, as applicable.
Section 8.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except for Purchaser, which from and after the Closing (as defined in the Merger Agreement) shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement, and except as expressly set forth in Section 6.5 (which may be enforced directly by any Non-Party Affiliate), neither this Agreement nor any Ancillary Document is intended, or shall be deemed, to confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective Group Members, successors and permitted assigns, to create any agreement of employment with any Person or to otherwise create any third-party beneficiary hereto or thereto.
Section 8.9 Counterparts and Signature. This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts (including by facsimile or by an electronic scan delivered by electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed an original but both of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each Party and delivered to the other Party, it being understood that both Parties need not sign the same counterpart.
Section 8.10 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document, following the Distribution, each Party will be responsible for its own
fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents.
Section 8.11 Amendment. The Parties may amend this Agreement or any Ancillary Document only by a written agreement signed by the Party intended to be bound by the amendment and that identifies itself as an amendment to this Agreement or such Ancillary Document, as applicable.
Section 8.12 Waiver. The Parties may waive a provision of this Agreement or an Ancillary Document only by a writing signed by the Party intended to be bound by the waiver. A Party is not prevented from enforcing any right, remedy or condition in the Party’s favor because of any failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy or in requiring satisfaction of any condition, except to the extent that the Party specifically waives the same in writing. A written waiver given for one matter or occasion is effective only in that instance and only for the purpose stated. A waiver once given is not to be construed as a waiver for any other matter or occasion. Any enumeration of a Party’s rights and remedies in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document is not intended to be exclusive, and a Party’s rights and remedies are intended to be cumulative to the extent permitted by Law and include any rights and remedies authorized in law or in equity.
Section 8.13 Authority; R&DCo Assets. Each of the Parties represents to the other on behalf of itself and each of its other Group Members that (a) it and its Group Members have the corporate or other requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which it is a party, (b) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which they are a party by it and its Group Members have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action, (c) it and its Group Members have duly and validly executed and delivered this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which they are a party, and (d) this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which they are a party is a valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it or its applicable Group Member in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles. R&DCo, on behalf of itself and each of its other Group Members, represents to Ikaria that (i) none of the R&DCo Assets are used in or necessary for the Ikaria Business except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 8.13(a) hereto, (ii) R&DCo, together with its Subsidiaries, has, and immediately following the Distribution will have, cash and cash equivalents in an amount equal to or greater than $80 million less (x) the amount deposited in escrow by R&DCo pursuant to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement and (y) $10,000 in respect of the aggregate cash payments made by or on behalf of R&DCo to holders of Ikaria Stock Options who immediately prior to the Distribution were neither employees of Ikaria nor Accredited Investors, pursuant to the terms of the Employee Matters Agreement (collectively, the “R&DCo Option Payments”), and (iii) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not require the consent, approval or authorization of any Person (before giving effect to the provisions of Section 2.3) except as set forth on Schedule 8.13(b).
Section 8.14 Construction of Agreement.
(a) Where this Agreement or any Ancillary Document states that a Party “will” or “shall” perform in some manner or otherwise act or omit to act, it means that the Party is legally obligated to do so in accordance with this Agreement or such Ancillary Document, as applicable.
(b) The captions, titles and headings, and table of contents, included in this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents are for convenience only, and do not affect this Agreement’s or such Ancillary Documents’ construction or interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document to an Article or a Section, exhibit or schedule, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of, or an exhibit or schedule to, this Agreement or such Ancillary Document, as applicable, unless otherwise indicated.
(c) When used in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document, the words “including,” “includes,” or “include” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.”
(d) Any reference in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document to the singular includes the plural where appropriate. Any reference in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document to the masculine, feminine or neuter gender includes the other genders where appropriate. Any reference in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document to any Person includes such Person’s successors and assigns but, if applicable, only if such successors and assigns are permitted by this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, after the Distribution the R&DCo Business shall be deemed to be the business of R&DCo and the R&DCo Group, and all references made in this Agreement to R&DCo as a party which operates as of a time following the Distribution, shall be deemed to refer to all R&DCo Group Members as a single party where appropriate.
(e) Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to in this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document means such agreement, instrument or statue as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession or comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein.
(f) Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign Law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise.
(g) Unless otherwise expressly specified in an Ancillary Document, all references in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document to “dollars” or “$” means United States Dollars. If any payment required to be made hereunder is denominated in a currency other than United States Dollars, such payment shall be made in United States Dollars and the amount thereof shall be computed using the exchange rate published by the Wall Street Journal on the date of payment (or if the Wall Street Journal is not published on such date, the last date prior thereto on which the Wall Street Journal was published).
(h) Unless otherwise expressly provided, wherever the consent of a Party is required or permitted herein, such consent may be withheld in such Party’s sole and absolute discretion.
Section 8.15 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time after the Distribution, by the mutual written consent of Ikaria and R&DCo. In the event of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing sentence, neither Party shall have any liability of any kind to the other Party under this Agreement, except for any breach of this Agreement that occurs prior to such termination.
Section 8.16 Insurance. R&DCo, at its expense, shall hold and maintain in full force and effect a policy or policies of appropriate insurance coverage as reasonably determined by R&DCo, such insurance coverage (i) to include at a minimum products liability coverage and clinical trial liability coverage and (ii) to provide coverage amounts as are reasonable for the activities to be conducted by R&DCo but in no event less than $[**] of combined coverage for the products liability coverage and clinical trial liability coverage. Each policy of insurance maintained by R&DCo shall name Ikaria as an additional insured. All insurance shall be on an occurrence basis, and not on a claims made basis, except to the extent that occurrence basis insurance is not available on commercially reasonable terms. Each insurance policy shall provide for a waiver of the insurer’s subrogation rights against R&DCo, to the extent such a waiver is permitted by the insurer. At the request of Ikaria, R&DCo shall provide Ikaria with documentary evidence of compliance with its obligations under this Section including a copy of its current insurance certification and full policy details, and provide Ikaria with notice of any change to such policies within thirty (30) days from the effective date of such change. The obligations of R&DCo under this Section 8.16 shall terminate at such time as Ikaria is no longer manufacturing and supplying nitric oxide delivery devices or nitric oxide for inhalation and corresponding placebo to any R&DCo Group Member pursuant to the Manufacturing and Supply Agreements.
(This space intentionally left blank)
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of Ikaria, R&DCo and ServicesCo has caused this Agreement to be executed on its behalf by a duly authorized officer on the date first set forth above.
