The Representatives are the primary point of contact between the Parties regarding the activities contemplated by this Agreement and will facilitate all such activities. Each Party may replace its Representative with an alternative representative at any time with prior written notice to the other Party. Any Representative may designate a substitute to temporarily perform the functions of that Representative.

8.2 Development Reports. Within thirty (30) days after each anniversary of the Effective Date, MedImmune shall provide Compugen with an annual, reasonably detailed written summary of the Development activities undertaken in the previous year with respect to the Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory [*]

8.3 Commercialization Reports. MedImmune shall provide annual written updates to Compugen with respect to its Commercialization activities for each Licensed Product in the Territory, in sufficient detail to enable Compugen to confirm MedImmune’s compliance with its diligence obligations under Section 9.2.

Diligence

9.1 Development Obligations. During the Term, MedImmune shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to research and Develop [*] in the Field in the Territory, including seeking and maintaining Regulatory Approvals in the Territory.

9.2 Commercial Obligations. MedImmune shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to Commercialize each Licensed Product that receives Regulatory Approval in the Field in the Territory.

10.	Fees and Payments

10.1 Upfront. In partial consideration of the rights granted by Compugen to MedImmune hereunder, MedImmune shall pay to Compugen a one-time, non-refundable, non‑creditable payment of ten million Dollars ($10,000,000) within [*] days after the Effective Date.

10.2 Development Milestone Payments.

(a) Milestones. MedImmune shall notify Compugen within [*] days after the first achievement by MedImmune or its Affiliates or Sublicensees of the following Development Milestone Events with respect to each Licensed Product. In partial consideration of the rights granted by Compugen to MedImmune hereunder, and subject to the remainder of this Section 10.2, MedImmune shall pay to Compugen the following Milestone Payments within [*] days of the first achievement (whether by MedImmune, its Affiliates, or Sublicensees) of the corresponding Development Milestone Events set forth below:

Development Milestone Event	Milestone Payment
	First Licensed Product to achieve Development Milestone Event	Second Licensed Product to achieve Development Milestone Event	Each additional Licensed Product to achieve Development Milestone Event
	Column 1	Column 2	Column 3
First Major Indication
[*]	[*]	[*]	[*]
Second Major Indication
[*]	[*]	[*]	[*]

(b) Clarifications.

(i) Each Development Milestone Payment is payable one time only for each Licensed Product, regardless of the number of times the corresponding event is achieved by such Licensed Product.

(ii) By way of example, if the first Licensed Product in the first Major Indication achieves the first three Development Milestone Events listed above, but fails after the first Phase II Clinical Trial, then achievement of the first three Development Milestone Events for the second Licensed Product in its first Major Indication would be paid as set forth in Milestone Payments Column 2. Any subsequent Development Milestone Events by such Licensed Product in its first Major Indication would be paid as set forth in the Milestone Payments Column 1 because such Licensed Product is the second Licensed Product to achieve the first three Development Milestone Events and the first Licensed Product to achieve the subsequent Development Milestone Events.

(iii) If a later Development Milestone Event is achieved, and a Milestone Payment with respect to a prior Development Milestone Event has not been made by MedImmune, then MedImmune shall pay Compugen such unpaid Milestone Payment with respect to such prior Development Milestone Event along with its payment for such later Milestone Payment.

10.3 Net Sales Milestones. Within [*] days after the end of a Calendar Year in which aggregate annual Net Sales of a particular Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory first reaches the thresholds indicated in the Milestone Events listed below, MedImmune shall pay to Compugen the corresponding non-refundable, non-creditable Milestone Payment set forth below.

Net Sales Milestone Events	Milestone Payment
[*]	[*]

For clarity, the Net Sales Milestone Payments set forth in this Section 10.3 are payable only once, upon the first achievement of the applicable Milestone Event and are additive so that if both Milestone Events set forth in this Section 10.3 are achieved in the same Calendar Year, MedImmune shall pay to Compugen both Milestone Payments. The maximum total amount payable under this Section 10.3 is [*].

10.4 Royalty Payments.

(a) Royalty Term. MedImmune shall pay Compugen royalties as set forth in this Section 10.4 on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and country-by-country basis in the Territory during the period of time beginning on the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country and continuing until the latest of: (i) [*] years after the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country, (ii) the expiration of Regulatory Exclusivity for the Licensed Product in such country, or (iii) the expiration or abandonment of the last-to-expire Valid Claim of any Licensed Patent in such country Covering such Licensed Product (the “Royalty Term”).

(b) Royalty Rate. On a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, MedImmune shall pay Compugen pursuant to Article 11, non-refundable, non-creditable royalties as set forth below on aggregate annual Net Sales of each Licensed Product in the Territory during the Royalty Term, as calculated by multiplying the applicable royalty rate set forth below by the corresponding amount of aggregate Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such Calendar Year.

Aggregate Annual Net Sales of Product in the Territory	Royalty Rate
For that portion of aggregate annual Net Sales of such Licensed Product less than or equal to [*]	[*]%
For that portion of aggregate annual Net Sales of such Licensed Product greater than [*]	[*]%

(c) Valid Claim. In any Calendar Quarter during the Royalty Term for a Licensed Product for which there is no Valid Claim of a Licensed Patent that Covers such Licensed Product in a country, the royalty rates provided in Section 10.4(b) for the Licensed Product shall be reduced in such country by [*] for such Calendar Quarter; provided, however, in no event will the reduction under this Section 10.4(c) reduce the royalties otherwise payable as provided in Section 10.4(b) during any Calendar Year by more than [*] in total.

(d) Generic Competition. If one or more Generic Products to a Licensed Product is launched in any country in the Territory during the Royalty Term for such Licensed Product in such country, and Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country during a Calendar Quarter decline by at least [*] as a result of such launch, as compared with the average Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country for the [*] preceding the Calendar Quarter in which the first Generic Product is launched in such country, the royalty rates provided in Section 10.4(b) for the Licensed Product shall be reduced in such country by [*] for the Calendar Quarter in which the applicable decline occurs and for all future Calendar Quarters, unless and until such Generic Products are no longer sold or the Net Sales of such Licensed Product increase above the Net Sales reduction threshold value first described above; provided, however, in no event will the reduction in this Section 10.4(d) reduce the royalties otherwise payable as provided in Section 10.4(b) during any Calendar Year by more than [*] in total.

(e) Third Party Payments. MedImmune shall have the right to deduct from any royalty payments to Compugen under this Section 10.4 for each Licensed Product up to [*] of any royalties paid by MedImmune to a Third Party in consideration for a Third Party License under such Third Party’s Patents that, in MedImmune’s reasonable judgment and upon advice of counsel, would be infringed by [*]; provided, however, in no event will the reduction in this Section 10.4(e) reduce the royalties otherwise payable to Compugen as provided in Section 10.4(b) during any Calendar Year by more than [*] in total.

(f) Cumulative Deductions. In no circumstances will the royalties payable to Compugen under this Section 10.4 in any Calendar Year be reduced, as a result of Section 10.4(c)–(e), below [*] of the royalties otherwise payable under Section 10.4.

10.5 Compugen Payments to Third Party. Compugen shall be solely responsible for all payments, if any, due with respect to the Licensed Component pursuant to any agreement Compugen has in place with a Third Party as of the Effective Date.

11.	Payment; Records; Audits

11.1 Payment; Reports. Royalty payments due by MedImmune to Compugen under Section 10.4 shall be calculated and reported for each Calendar Quarter. All royalty payments due under Section 10.4 shall be paid within [*] days after the end of each Calendar Quarter and shall be accompanied by a report setting forth, on a country-by-country basis, Net Sales of each Licensed Product by MedImmune and its Affiliates and Sublicensees in the Territory in sufficient detail to permit confirmation of the accuracy of the royalty payment made, including, for each country, the number of Licensed Products sold, the gross sales and Net Sales of each Licensed Product, including the deductions from gross sales to arrive at Net Sales, the royalties payable, the method used to calculate the royalties, the exchange rates used and any adjustments to royalties in accordance with Section 10.4.

11.2 Exchange Rate; Manner and Place of Payment. All payments shall be payable in Dollars. When conversion of payments from any currency other than Dollars is required, such conversion shall be at an exchange rate equal to the weighted average of the rates of exchange for the currency of the country from which such payments are payable as published by The Wall Street Journal, Eastern U.S. Edition, during the Calendar Quarter in which the applicable sales were made. All payments owed under this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a bank and account designated in writing by Compugen, unless otherwise specified in writing by Compugen.

11.3 Taxes.

(a) The royalties, milestones and other amounts payable by MedImmune to Compugen pursuant to this Agreement (“Payments”) shall not be reduced on account of Taxes unless required by Applicable Laws. Compugen alone shall be responsible for paying any and all income taxes (other than withholding taxes required by Applicable Law to be paid by MedImmune and Indirect Taxes governed by Section 11.3(b)) levied on account of, or measured in whole or in part by reference to, any Payments it receives. Subject to Section 11.3(c), MedImmune shall deduct or withhold from the Payments any Taxes that it is required by Applicable Laws to deduct or withhold. If, however, Compugen is entitled under any applicable tax treaty to a reduction of rate of, or the elimination of, applicable withholding tax, it may deliver to MedImmune or the appropriate governmental authority (with the assistance of MedImmune to the extent that this is reasonably required and is expressly requested in writing) the prescribed forms necessary to reduce the applicable rate of withholding or to relieve MedImmune of its obligation to withhold tax, and MedImmune shall apply the reduced rate of withholding, or dispense with withholding, as the case may be, provided that MedImmune has received evidence, in a form reasonably satisfactory to MedImmune, of Compugen’s delivery of all applicable forms at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the time that the Payments are due. If MedImmune withholds any Taxes from the Payments while Compugen is entitled under any applicable tax treaty to a reduction of rate of, or the elimination of, applicable withholding tax, MedImmune shall cooperate with Compugen with respect to any documentation required by the appropriate governmental authority or reasonably requested by Compugen to secure a reduction of the rate of, or the elimination of, the applicable Taxes withheld. MedImmune shall provide reasonable notice to Compugen prior to withholding any amount from Payments to allow Compugen to claim a reduction of otherwise applicable withholding taxes.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the following shall apply with respect to Indirect Taxes. All Payments are stated exclusive of Indirect Taxes. If any Indirect Taxes are chargeable in respect of any Payments, MedImmune shall pay such Indirect Taxes at the applicable rate in respect of any such Payments following the receipt, where applicable, of an Indirect Taxes invoice issued in the appropriate form by Compugen in respect of those Payments, such Indirect Taxes to be payable on the due date of the Payments to which such Indirect Taxes relate or at the time such Indirect Taxes are required to be collected by Compugen, in the case of payment of Indirect Taxes imposed on Compugen. The Parties shall issue invoices for all goods and services supplied under this Agreement consistent with Indirect Tax requirements, and to the extent any invoice is not initially issued in an appropriate form, MedImmune shall promptly inform Compugen and shall cooperate with Compugen to provide such information or assistance as may be necessary to enable the issuance of such invoice consistent with Indirect Tax requirements.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if MedImmune assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of some or all of its rights or obligations to any Person (without the written consent of Compugen) and if, as a result of such action, the withholding or deduction of tax required by Applicable Law with respect to Payments under this Agreement is increased, then any amount payable to Compugen under this Agreement shall be increased to take into account such additional withheld taxes as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholdings (including withholdings on the withheld amounts), Compugen receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such additional withholding been made. If Compugen (or any of its Affiliates) receives and uses a credit for or receives a refund of any Tax by reason of any deduction or withholding of tax made pursuant to this Section 11.3(c), Compugen shall reimburse to MedImmune such amount that is actually received and used by Compugen, up to an amount that will leave MedImmune (and its Affiliates) (after such reimbursement) in the same position it would have been if MedImmune had not been required to make payment under this Section 11.3(c). Each party shall use (or procure the relevant Affiliate uses) reasonable efforts to obtain and utilize any available credit or obtain any refund.

11.4 Records; Audit. MedImmune shall keep, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to keep, complete and accurate records pertaining to the sale or other disposition of Licensed Products in sufficient detail to permit Compugen to confirm the accuracy of royalty payments due hereunder. Such records shall be kept for such period of time required by Applicable Laws, but no less than [*] years following the end of the Calendar Quarter to which they pertain. Compugen may cause an independent, certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to MedImmune to audit such records to confirm Net Sales, royalties and other payments for a period covering not more than [*] years following the Calendar Quarter to which they pertain. Such audits may be exercised during normal business hours upon reasonable prior written notice to MedImmune. The Parties shall make prompt adjustments to reflect the results of such audit. Compugen shall bear the full cost of such audit unless such audit discloses an underpayment by MedImmune of more than [*] of the amount of royalties or other payments due under this Agreement for any applicable Calendar Quarter, in which case, MedImmune shall bear the cost of such audit and shall promptly remit to Compugen the amount of any underpayment. Any overpayment by MedImmune revealed by an audit shall be credited against future payments owed by MedImmune to Compugen (and if no further payments are due, shall be refunded by Compugen at the request of MedImmune).

11.5 Late Payments. If any payment due under this Agreement is not paid when due in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, the payment shall accrue interest from the date due at the rate of prime (as reported in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern U.S. Edition) plus [*] or the maximum rate allowable by Applicable Law, whichever is less. The payment of such interest shall not limit the Party entitled to receive payment from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment.

12.	Intellectual Property

12.1 Inventorship; Ownership.

(a) Ownership of Inventions. Inventorship as between the Parties will be determined in accordance with the rules of inventorship of the jurisdiction in which such Inventions were invented. Each Party owns any Inventions made solely by its own employees, agents, or independent contractors in the course of conducting its activities under this Agreement, together with all intellectual property rights therein (“Sole Inventions”). The Parties jointly own any inventions that are made jointly by employees, agents, or independent contractors of each Party in the course of performing activities under this Agreement, together with all intellectual property rights therein (“Joint Inventions”). All Patents claiming Joint Inventions will be referred to as “Joint Patents”. Except to the extent either Party is restricted by the licenses granted to the other Party under this Agreement or the other terms of this Agreement, each Party may practice and exploit the Joint Inventions and Joint Patents without the duty of accounting or seeking consent from the other Party. Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to promptly disclose to the other Party all Joint Inventions, including any invention disclosures, or other similar documents, submitted to it by its employees, agents or independent contractors describing inventions that are Joint Inventions, and all information relating to such inventions to the extent necessary or useful for the preparation, filing and maintenance of any Patent with respect to such Joint Invention.

(b) Non-Exclusive License. MedImmune shall and hereby does grant to Compugen a worldwide non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicensable through multiple tiers, royalty-free license under all of MedImmune’s Sole Inventions, and all intellectual property contained therein, that [*], for Compugen’s use in the development, manufacture or commercialization of any Retained Product.

(c) Assignment Obligation. Each Party shall cause all employees, independent contractors, consultants and others who perform activities for such Party under this Agreement to be under an obligation to assign (or, if such Party is unable to cause such person or entity to agree to such assignment obligation despite such Party using Commercially Reasonable Efforts to negotiate such assignment obligation, provide a license, preferably exclusive, under) their rights in and to any Inventions and all intellectual property rights therein to such Party, except where Applicable Law requires otherwise and except in the case of governmental, not-for-profit and public institutions which have standard policies against such an assignment (in which case a Party shall obtain a suitable license, preferably exclusive, or right to obtain such a license).

Each Party shall cooperate fully with the other Party in the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of Licensed Patents under this Section 12.2 and in the obtaining and maintenance of any patent term extensions, supplementary protection certificates and their equivalent with respect thereto respectively, at its own cost (except as expressly set forth otherwise in this Article 12). Such cooperation includes (i) executing all papers and instruments, or requiring its employees or contractors, to execute such papers and instruments, so as enable the other Party to apply for and to prosecute patent applications in any country as permitted by this Section 12.2, and (ii) promptly informing the other Party of any matters coming to such Party’s attention that may affect the preparation, filing, prosecution or maintenance of any such patent applications.

12.3 Infringement by Third Parties.

(a) Notice. If either Compugen or MedImmune becomes aware of any infringement or threatened infringement by a Third Party of any Licensed Patent, or any declaratory judgment or equivalent action challenging any Licensed Patent in connection with any such infringement, it will promptly notify the other Party in writing to that effect. Any such notice shall include evidence to support an allegation of infringement or threatened infringement, or declaratory judgment or equivalent action, by such Third Party.

(b) Enforcement of [*] Patents. Subject to this Section 12.3(b), [*] has the first right, as between Compugen and MedImmune, but not the obligation, to bring and control any action or proceeding with respect to infringement or challenge of any [*] Patents, at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice. [*] shall keep [*] reasonably informed as to the status of such action or proceeding and, when possible, shall provide [*], with copies of all patent applications and other material submissions and communications (including oral communications) with any patent authorities pertaining to the applicable [*] Patents sufficiently in advance for [*] to comment. [*] shall consider in good faith [*] comments with respect thereto. If [*], then (i) [*] may, at its own expense, be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice, and [*] and its counsel will reasonably cooperate with [*] and its counsel in planning, preparing, and prosecuting any such action or proceeding and (ii) if [*] fails to bring an action or proceeding with respect to infringement of such [*] Patent by the earlier of (A) [*] days following the notice of alleged infringement or declaratory judgment and (B) [*] days before the time limit, if any, set forth in the appropriate laws and regulations for the filing of such actions, then [*] may bring and control any such action at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice and [*] may, at its own expense, be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice.

(c) Enforcement of [*].

Except as otherwise agreed by the Parties as part of a cost-sharing arrangement, any recovery or damages realized as a result of such action or proceeding with respect to Licensed Patents shall be used first to reimburse the Parties’ documented out-of-pocket legal expenses relating to the action or proceeding, and any remaining compensatory damages relating to Licensed Patents (including lost sales or lost profits with respect to the Licensed Product) shall be [*], and in the case that [*], such remaining [*].

(f) Settlement. In connection with any action or proceeding brought under this Section 12.3, neither Party may enter into any settlement that (i) restricts or adversely affects the scope of the other claims contained in the Licensed Patents or (ii) invalidates, alters, or diminishes the other Party’s rights under this Agreement, in each case without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

12.4 Infringement of Third Party Rights. If a claim is brought by a Third Party alleging infringement of a Patent of such Third Party by the development, manufacture or commercialization of [*], the Party first having notice of the claim or assertion shall promptly notify the other Party, the Parties shall agree on and enter into a common interest agreement wherein the Parties agree to their shared, mutual interest in the outcome of such potential dispute, and thereafter, the Parties shall promptly meet to consider the claim or assertion and the appropriate course of action.

As between the Parties, MedImmune owns all rights in the Licensed Product Marks and may register and maintain, at its own cost and expense, the Licensed Product Marks in the countries and regions in the Territory that it determines to be appropriate. MedImmune has the sole right, in its discretion and at its expense, to defend and enforce the Licensed Product Marks.

12.6 Third Party Licenses. If MedImmune believes in good faith that the Development, manufacture, or Commercialization of a Licensed Product, due to the Licensed Component contained therein, infringes, or misappropriates any Patent, Know-How, or other intellectual property right of a Third Party, then MedImmune shall promptly notify Compugen thereof in writing. The Parties shall thereafter discuss in good faith whether it is reasonably necessary or commercially prudent to obtain a right or license under such Patents, Know-How, or other intellectual property rights of such Third Party (a “Third Party License”), and whether Compugen, MedImmune, both Parties, and/or Affiliates of either of them should enter into such Third Party License.

Compugen hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless MedImmune and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, an “MedImmune Indemnitee”) from and against any and all liabilities, costs, fees, expenses and losses, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees (collectively, “Losses”), to which any MedImmune Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding by any Third Party (a “Claim”) to the extent such Losses arise out of: (a) the development, use, handling, storage, sale or other disposition or commercialization of the Retained Products by Compugen or its Affiliates, (b) the negligence or willful misconduct of any Compugen Indemnitee, or (c) the breach by Compugen of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Compugen in this Agreement; except, in each case (a)–(c), to the extent such Losses arise out of the negligence or willful misconduct of any MedImmune Indemnitee or the breach by MedImmune of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by MedImmune in this Agreement.

14.2 Indemnification by MedImmune. MedImmune hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Compugen and its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, a “Compugen Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Losses to which any Compugen Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any Claim to the extent such Losses arise out of: (a) the Development, use, handling, storage, sale or other disposition or Commercialization of any Licensed Product by MedImmune or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, (b) MedImmune’s use of the Materials, (c) the negligence or willful misconduct of any MedImmune Indemnitee, or (d) the breach by MedImmune of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by MedImmune in this Agreement; except, in each case (a)–(d), to the extent such Losses arise out of the negligence or willful misconduct of any Compugen Indemnitee or the breach by Compugen of any warranty, representation, covenant or agreement made by Compugen in this Agreement.

14.3 Procedure. A party that intends to claim indemnification under this Article 14 (the “Indemnitee”) shall promptly notify the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnitor”) in writing of any Claim in respect of which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification, and the Indemnitor has sole control of the defense or settlement thereof. The Indemnitee may participate at its expense in the Indemnitor’s defense of and settlement negotiations for any Claim with counsel of the Indemnitee’s own selection. The indemnity arrangement in this Article 14 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any action with respect to a Claim, if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably. The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after the commencement of any action with respect to a Claim shall only relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligations under this Article 14 if and to the extent the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced thereby. The Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any action with respect to a Claim covered by this indemnification.

14.4 Insurance. MedImmune, at its own expense, shall maintain product liability and other appropriate insurance (or self-insure), including any insurance as may be required pursuant to Applicable Law, in an amount consistent with sound business practice and reasonable in light of its obligations under this Agreement during the Term, and at any event not less than the amount prescribed by Applicable Law (if any). MedImmune shall provide a certificate of insurance (or evidence of self-insurance) evidencing such coverage to Compugen upon request.

15.	Confidentiality

15.1 Confidential Information. Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, the Parties agree that, during the Term and for [*] years thereafter, the receiving Party shall keep confidential and shall not publish or otherwise disclose and shall not use for any purpose other than as expressly provided for in this Agreement any Confidential Information of the other Party under this Agreement, and both Parties shall keep confidential and, subject to Sections 15.2, 15.3, 15.4, and 15.5, shall not publish or otherwise disclose the terms of this Agreement. Each Party may use the other Party’s Confidential Information only to the extent required to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including exercising its rights or performing its obligations. Each Party shall use at least the same standard of care as it uses to protect proprietary or confidential information of its own (but no less than reasonable care) to ensure that its employees, agents, consultants, contractors and other representatives do not disclose or make any unauthorized use of the Confidential Information of the other Party. Each Party shall promptly notify the other upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information of the other Party. Any confidential information disclosed under the Confidentiality Agreement shall be treated as Confidential Information subject to the terms of this Agreement. The Parties agree that the material terms of this Agreement are the Confidential Information of both Parties.

15.2 Exceptions. The obligations of confidentiality and restriction on use under Section 15.1 will not apply to any information that the receiving Party can prove by competent written evidence: (a) is now, or hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act in breach of this Agreement on the part of the receiving Party, generally known or available to the public; (b) is known by the receiving Party at the time of receiving such information, other than by previous disclosure of the disclosing Party, or its Affiliates, employees, agents, consultants, or contractors; (c) is hereafter furnished to the receiving Party without restriction by a Third Party who has no obligation of confidentiality or limitations on use with respect thereto, as a matter of right; or (d) is independently discovered or developed by the receiving Party without the use of Confidential Information belonging to the disclosing Party. Specific information shall not be deemed to be within any of the foregoing exclusions merely because it is embraced by more general information falling within those exclusions.

15.3 Authorized Disclosure. Each Party may disclose Confidential Information belonging to the other Party as expressly permitted by this Agreement or if and to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary in the following instances:

(a) filing, prosecuting, or maintaining Patents as permitted by this Agreement;

(b) regulatory filings for Licensed Product or Retained Product that such Party has a license or right to Develop hereunder in a given country or jurisdiction;

(d) complying with applicable court orders or governmental regulations;

(e) disclosure to its and its Affiliates’ employees, consultants, contractors and agents, and to Sublicensees (in the case of MedImmune), in each case on a need-to-know basis in connection with the Development, manufacture, and Commercialization of the Licensed Product in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in each case under written obligations of confidentiality and non-use at least as stringent as those herein; and

(f) disclosure to potential and actual investors, acquirers, licensees and other financial or commercial partners solely for the purpose of evaluating or carrying out an actual or potential investment, acquisition or collaboration, in each case under written obligations of confidentiality and non-use at least as stringent as those herein, provided, however, that with respect to disclosure to actual or bona fide potential investors, such disclosure is under a written obligation of confidentiality that is consistent with market terms, including a shorter period of time during which such information must be held confidential.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Party is required to make a disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to Section 15.3(c) or (d), it shall, to the extent permitted pursuant to Applicable Law, and except where impracticable, give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure and use efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information at least as diligent as such Party would use to protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event less than reasonable efforts. In any event, the Parties shall take all reasonable action to avoid disclosure of Confidential Information hereunder, and, in the case of disclosure pursuant to Section 15.3(d), shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed. Any information disclosed pursuant to Section 15.3(c) or (d) shall remain Confidential Information and subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, including the foregoing provisions of this Article 15.

15.4 Publications. The Parties recognize the desirability of publishing and publicly disclosing the results of information regarding activities with respect to the Licensed Product. Accordingly, [*] publicly disclose the results of and information regarding activities with respect to [*], subject to prior review by [*] of any disclosure of [*] Confidential Information for issues of patentability and protection of such Confidential Information, in a manner consistent with Applicable Law and industry practices, as provided in this Section 15.4. Accordingly, [*] shall provide [*] with drafts of proposed abstracts, manuscripts or summaries of presentations that cover the Confidential Information of [*] at least [*] days prior to submission to a Third Party. [*] shall promptly review and respond through its designated representative. [*] shall delay submission of such publication or presentation for a reasonable period (not to exceed [*]) to permit filings for patent protection and to otherwise address issues of Confidential Information or related competitive harm to the reasonable satisfaction of [*] and, in any event, [*] shall not publish or publicly disclose any of [*] Confidential Information over [*] objection. In addition, [*] shall give due regard to comments furnished by [*] and such comments shall not be unreasonably rejected. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit either Party’s right to publish its own Confidential Information.

15.5 Publicity.

(a) Compugen may issue a press release substantially in the form attached to this Agreement on Exhibit 15.5(a) on the Effective Date or promptly thereafter; provided, that the final form of such press release is subject to mutual agreement of the Parties, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Beyond such press release, neither Party shall issue any public announcement, press release or other public disclosure regarding the terms of this Agreement without the other Party’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed. Neither Party is required to seek the permission of the other Party to repeat any information that has already been publicly disclosed by such Party, or by the other Party, in accordance with this Section 15.5(a), provided such information remains accurate as of such time.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that either or both Parties may be obligated to file under Applicable Laws a copy of this Agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or other Governmental Authorities. In such event, however, each Party making such a filing shall request confidential treatment of the terms hereof to the extent such confidential treatment is reasonably available to such Party. In the event of any such filing, each Party will provide the other Party with a copy of this Agreement marked to show provisions for which such Party intends to seek confidential treatment and shall reasonably consider and incorporate the other Party’s reasonable comments thereon to the extent consistent with the legal requirements, with respect to the filing Party, governing disclosure of material agreements and material information that must be publicly filed.

15.6 No Right to Use Names. Except as expressly provided herein, no right, express or implied, is granted by this Agreement to use in any manner the name of either Party or any other trade name, symbol, logo or trademark of the other Party or its Affiliates in connection with the performance of this Agreement.

15.7 Prior Confidentiality Agreement. As of the Effective Date, the terms of this Article 15 shall supersede any prior non-disclosure, secrecy or confidentiality agreement between the Parties (or their Affiliates) relating to the subject of this Agreement, including the Confidentiality Agreement to the extent information disclosed under such Confidentiality Agreement relates to the subject matter of this Agreement. For clarity, the Confidentiality Agreement continues to govern discussions between the Parties with respect to other matters that are not the subject of this Agreement. Any information disclosed pursuant to any such prior agreement shall be deemed Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement.

15.8 Equitable Relief. Given the nature of the Confidential Information and the competitive damage that a Party would suffer upon unauthorized disclosure, use or transfer of its Confidential Information to any Third Party, the Parties agree that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Article 15. In addition to all other remedies, a Party may seek specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief as a remedy for any breach or threatened breach of this Article 15.

16.	Term and Termination

16.1 Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier as provided in this Article 16 or by mutual written agreement of the Parties, shall continue until the expiration of the last Royalty Term in the Territory (the “Term”). Upon the expiration of the Royalty Term for a Licensed Product in a particular country, the licenses granted by Compugen to MedImmune under Section 2.1 with respect to such Licensed Product and such country become fully-paid, royalty-free, and non-exclusive.

16.2 Termination for Material Breach.

(a) Either Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other Party if such other Party materially breaches its obligations under this Agreement and, after receiving written notice from the non-breaching Party identifying such material breach in reasonable detail, fails to cure such material breach within [*] days ([*] days in the case of payment) from the date of such notice; provided that if such non-payment related breach is not reasonably capable of cure within such [*]-day period, the breaching Party may submit, prior to the end of such [*]-day period, a reasonable plan to cure the breach within an additional [*] days, in which case the other Party may not terminate this Agreement for so long as the breaching Party is using commercially reasonable efforts to implement such cure plan within such additional [*] days.

(b) If the alleged breaching Party disputes in good faith the existence or materiality of a breach specified in a notice provided by the other Party in accordance with Section 16.2(a), and such alleged breaching Party provides the other Party notice of such dispute within such [*]-day (or [*]-day, as applicable) period, then the non-breaching Party may not terminate this Agreement under Section 16.2(a) unless and until the Arbitrators, in accordance with Article 17, have determined that the alleged breaching Party has materially breached this Agreement and such Party fails to cure such breach within [*] days (or [*] days, as applicable) following such Arbitrators’ decision. During the pendency of such dispute, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect and the Parties shall continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder.

16.3 Termination for Bankruptcy. Either Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party if, at any time, the other Party (a) files in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any state, country or jurisdiction, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of such other Party or of its assets, (b) proposes a written agreement of composition or extension of its debts, (c) is served with an involuntary petition against it, filed in any insolvency proceeding that is not dismissed within [*] days after the filing thereof, (d) proposes or is a party to any dissolution or liquidation, or (e) makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors.

16.4 Termination for Patent Challenge. Compugen may terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon written notice to MedImmune if MedImmune or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees directly, or indirectly through any Third Party, commences any interference or opposition proceeding with respect to, challenges the validity or enforceability of, or opposes any extension of or the grant of a supplementary protection certificate with respect to, any Licensed Patent.

16.5 Termination by MedImmune. MedImmune may terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason or for no reason upon [*] written notice to Compugen.

16.6 Effects of Certain Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement by either Party pursuant to Sections 16.2, 16.3, 16.4, or 16.5 the following will apply:

(a) Termination of Licenses and Other Rights. All licenses granted to MedImmune will automatically terminate, all other rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement will terminate. Compugen may grant any Sublicensee of MedImmune that is then in compliance with its sublicense a license on the same terms as set out in this Agreement (including pro rata all applicable event payments and royalty payments) in relation to any Compugen rights previously licensed to such Sublicensee.

(b) Wind-Down. MedImmune shall, as directed by Compugen, wind-down any ongoing Development activities of MedImmune and its Affiliates and Sublicensees with respect to the Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory in an orderly fashion and in compliance with all Applicable Laws.

16.7 Confidential Information. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement in its entirety, except to the extent that a Party expressly obtains or retains the right to use the other Party’s Confidential Information, each Party shall promptly return to the other Party, or delete or destroy, all relevant records and materials (including, in the case of MedImmune, the Materials) in such Party’s possession or control containing Confidential Information of the other Party; provided that such Party may keep one copy of such materials for archival purposes only subject to continuing confidentiality obligations.

16.8 Survival. Expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Parties of any obligation or right accruing prior to such expiration or termination. Except as set forth below or elsewhere in this Agreement, the obligations and rights of the Parties under the following provisions of this Agreement shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement: Articles 1 (to the extent defined terms are contained in the following surviving Articles and Sections), 10 (with respect to those payments that accrued prior to the effective date of termination or expiration), 11 (with respect to payments due and not yet paid), 14, 15, and 17, and Sections 2.4(a), 3.2, 7.2, 12.1(a), 12.1(b), 13.4, 16.6, 16.7, 16.8, 16.9, 18.1, 18.2, 18.7, 18.8, 18.9 and 18.11.

16.9 Rights in Bankruptcy. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement by one Party to the other Party are, and will otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or comparable provision of applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws, licenses of right to “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or comparable provision of applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Parties agree that a Party that is a licensee of such rights under this Agreement will retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or comparable provision of applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Parties further agree that, in the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against a Party to this Agreement under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or comparable provision of applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws, the other Party will be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual property and all embodiments of such intellectual property, and same, if not already in its possession, will be promptly delivered to it (a) upon any such commencement of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding upon its written request therefor, unless the bankrupt Party elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement, or (b) if not delivered under (a) above, following the rejection of this Agreement by or on behalf of the bankrupt Party upon written request therefor by the other Party.

17.	Dispute Resolution

17.1 Objective. The Parties recognize that disputes as to matters arising under or relating to this Agreement or either Party’s rights or obligations hereunder may arise from time to time. It is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of such disputes in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation and without resort to litigation. To accomplish this objective, the Parties shall follow the procedures set forth in this Article 17 to resolve any such dispute if and when it arises.

17.2 Resolution by Senior Officers. If a dispute arises between the Parties in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith (a “Dispute”), then either Party may refer such Dispute to the Senior Officers for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations during a period of [*] Business Days. Any final decision mutually agreed to by the Senior Officers in writing is conclusive and binding on the Parties. If such Senior Officers are unable to resolve any such Dispute within such [*]-Business Day period, either Party may institute binding arbitration in accordance with Section 17.3 upon written notice to the other Party (an “Arbitration Notice”) and seek such remedies as may be available.

17.3 Arbitration.

(a) General. Upon receipt of an Arbitration Notice by a Party, the Parties shall resolve the applicable Dispute by final and binding arbitration before a panel of three experts with relevant industry experience (the “Arbitrators”). Each of Compugen and MedImmune shall each select one Arbitrator within [*] days after the Arbitration Notice. The Arbitrator chosen by Compugen and the Arbitrator chosen by MedImmune will together choose a third Arbitrator within [*] days after the date that the last of such initial Arbitrators was appointed. The arbitration will be administered by [*] in accordance with the then current [*], except as modified in this Agreement. The seat of the arbitration shall be held in [*], and the Parties shall use reasonable efforts to expedite the arbitration if requested by either Party. During the period of time that any arbitration proceeding is pending under this Agreement, the Parties shall continue to comply with all those terms and provisions of this Agreement that are not the subject of the pending arbitration proceeding.

(b) Decision. The Arbitrators will, within [*] days after the conclusion of the arbitration hearing, issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The decision or award rendered by the Arbitrators shall be final and non-appealable. The Arbitrators are authorized to award compensatory damages, but are not authorized to reform, modify, or materially change this Agreement or any other agreements contemplated hereunder. The award shall include interest from the date of any damages incurred for breach of this Agreement, and from the date of the award until paid in full, at a rate fixed by the arbitrators.

(c) Award. Any award shall be promptly paid in Dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset; and any costs, fees or taxes incident to enforcing the award shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the Party resisting enforcement. Each Party agrees to abide by the award rendered in any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 17.3, and agrees that judgment may be entered upon it in [*] or any other court of competent jurisdiction, in each case in accordance with Applicable Law. To the extent that a Party receives a final award under this Section 17.3, such Party may offset any unpaid amount owed by such first Party to the other Party under this Agreement by the amount of such award. Such right to offset shall be in addition to any other rights or remedies available under this Agreement and Applicable Law.

(d) Costs. Except as set forth in Section 17.3(b), each Party shall bear its own counsel fees, costs, and disbursements arising out of the arbitration described in this Section 17.3, and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the Arbitrators and all other general fees related to the arbitration; provided, however, the Arbitrators may determine whether a Party is the prevailing Party, and if so, may award to that prevailing Party reimbursement for its reasonable counsel fees, costs and disbursements (including expert witness fees and expenses, photocopy charges, or travel expenses), or the fees and costs of the Arbitrators.

(e) Injunctive Relief. Provided a Party has made a sufficient showing under the rules and standards set forth in the U.S. Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and applicable case law, the arbitrators may invoke, and the Parties agree to abide by, injunctive measures after either Party submits in writing for arbitration claims requiring immediate relief. Additionally, nothing in this Article 17 precludes either Party from seeking equitable relief or interim or provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable relief, concerning a dispute either prior to or during any arbitration if necessary to protect the interests of such Party or to preserve the status quo pending the arbitration proceeding.

(f) Confidentiality. The arbitration proceeding is confidential and the arbitrators will issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard each Party’s Confidential Information. Except as required by law, no Party shall make (or instruct the arbitrators to make) any public announcement with respect to the proceedings or decision of the arbitrators without prior written consent of the other Party. The existence of any dispute submitted to arbitration, and the award, shall be kept in confidence by the Parties and the arbitrators, except as required in connection with the enforcement of such award or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

18.	General Provisions

18.1 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all questions regarding the existence, validity, interpretation, breach or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of [*], without reference to its conflicts of law principles.

18.2 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, including the Exhibits hereto, sets forth the complete, final and exclusive agreement and all the covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes, as of the Effective Date, all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, including the Confidentiality Agreement. The foregoing may not be interpreted as a waiver of any remedies available to either Party as a result of any breach, prior to the Effective Date, by the other Party of its obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement. There are no covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions or understandings, either oral or written, between the Parties other than as are set forth in this Agreement. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties unless reduced to writing and signed by an authorized officer of each Party.

18.3 Relationship Between the Parties. The Parties’ relationship, as established by this Agreement, is solely that of independent contractors. This Agreement does not create any partnership, joint venture or similar business relationship between the Parties. Neither Party is a legal representative of the other Party, and neither Party can assume or create any obligation, representation, warranty or guarantee, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party for any purpose whatsoever.

18.4 Non-Waiver. The failure of a Party to insist upon strict performance of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right arising out of this Agreement shall neither impair that provision or right nor constitute a waiver of that provision or right, in whole or in part, in that instance or in any other instance. Any waiver by a Party of a particular provision or right shall be in writing, shall be as to a particular matter and, if applicable, for a particular period of time and shall be signed by such Party.

18.5 Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, except that a Party may make such an assignment or transfer without the other Party’s consent to its Affiliates or to a Third Party successor to all or substantially all of the business of such Party to which this Agreement relates, whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or other transaction. Any successor or assignee of rights or obligations permitted hereunder shall, in writing to the other Party, expressly assume performance of such rights and obligations. Any permitted assignment is binding on the successors of the assigning Party. Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section 18.5 is null, void and of no legal effect.

18.6 Change of Control of Compugen. In the event of a Change of Control of Compugen, the intellectual property rights of the acquiring party will be excluded from the Licensed Technology; provided, that any intellectual property rights of any acquirer that are included in the Licensed Technology under this Agreement immediately prior to such Change of Control will not be excluded from the Licensed Technology. As used in this Section 18.6, “Change of Control” means, with respect to Compugen: (a) the sale of all or substantially all of its assets or all of its assets relating to the Licensed Product; (b) a merger, reorganization or consolidation involving Compugen in which the holders of the voting securities of Compugen outstanding immediately prior thereto cease to beneficially own at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the surviving entity, directly or indirectly, immediately after such merger, reorganization or consolidation; or (c) a transaction in which an entity or individual, or group of entities or individuals acting in concert, acquires more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting equity securities of Compugen.

18.7 Severability. If, for any reason, any part of this Agreement is adjudicated invalid, unenforceable or illegal by a court of competent jurisdiction, such adjudication shall not, to the extent feasible, affect or impair, in whole or in part, the validity, enforceability, or legality of any remaining portions of this Agreement. All remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect as if the original Agreement had been executed without the invalidated, unenforceable or illegal part.

18.8 Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing, shall specifically refer to this Agreement, and shall be addressed to the appropriate Party at the address specified below or such other address as may be specified by such Party in writing in accordance with this Section 18.8, and shall be deemed to have been given for all purposes (a) when received, if hand-delivered or sent by confirmed electronic mail or a reputable courier service, or (b) five (5) Business Days after mailing, if mailed by first class certified or registered airmail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested.

About Bi-Specific and Multi-Specific Products

Antibodies are naturally occurring components of the immune system that bind specifically to a target protein via two identical arms. Through genetic engineering, antibodies can be modified to bind to different proteins through the two separate arms by exchanging one arm with that of another antibody with a different target specificity (bi-specific antibodies). Alternatively, additional features can be engineered into an antibody to allow binding to three or more target proteins simultaneously (multi-specific antibodies). These engineered forms of antibodies are increasingly being developed as therapeutics, as they enable multiple mechanisms of action for treating disease within a single molecule.
