As soon as practicable after signing and after having received all relevant documentation and data pursuant to Section 5.1.2, Licensee shall seek approval for the Device with the relevant EU authorities (CE-labeling). If the Parties determine that the Product data is appropriate for such Dossier, Licensee shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, compile and submit a Dossier for the Product with the EMEA under the Centralized Procedure and shall use all reasonable endeavors to obtain Marketing Authorization for the Product in the EU. Licensor shall be afforded reasonable opportunities to review and provide comment on the Dossier to be filed with EMEA provided this does not unreasonably delay Licensee’s filing of the Dossier with EMEA. Among other items, the parties shall work together to determine the specific label to be affixed to the Product container to assure global consistency. It is expressly

understood and agreed that Licensor will not unreasonably withhold any consent in any forum, including the CT, and will exercise good business judgment in commenting on the Product’s Dossier. Moreover, Licensee shall endeavor to include Licensor at any meetings with representatives of EMEA, if the Parties determine through the CT that participation of Licensor would be beneficial to the process of obtaining marketing authorization for the Product in any jurisdiction. Licensor agrees to use best commercial efforts to participate in any meeting with representatives of EMEA if such participation is determined by the CT to be desired.

6.2 Other MA Filings. Subject to Section 6.3 Licensee shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after filing of the Dossier with the EMEA under Section 6.1, file a Dossier for the Product in Norway, Switzerland and CIS and shall thereafter use reasonable endeavors to obtain Marketing Authorizations for the Product in these countries. Licensee shall promptly, and in any event upon Licensor’s written request, furnish to Licensor, a copy of each Dossier as submitted to the relevant regulatory authorities in each State Territory.

6.3 Countries outside EU. In respect of those countries outside the EU, Norway, Switzerland and Russia, if Licensee reasonably concludes that the commercial value of the Product in any such countries does not justify the cost of registration and launch of the Product in such countries, Licensee shall be under no obligation to develop or commercialize the Product in those State Territories. In such event Licensor shall be entitled to enforce the “march-in” rights described in Section 7.2.2 below.

6.4 Ownership of Dossier. The Dossiers shall within the limits of the Territory be the sole property of Licensee, and Licensor agrees to assign to Licensee any rights in or to any amendments or modifications to, or translations of, the Dossiers which it may effect or which may be effected on its behalf, in connection with its use of the Dossiers in the Territory under the terms of this Agreement. Product data and other Licensor contributions to the Dossier shall, outside the Territory, be and remain the property of Licensor subject to the licenses granted herein.

6.5 Data Exclusivity. Each of Licensee and Licensor shall use all reasonable endeavors to procure and maintain the maximum period of data exclusivity in each part of the Territory in respect of Dossiers filed by or on behalf of Licensee, in connection with any application for or the maintenance of any Marketing Authorizations for the Product in the Territory.

6.6 Ownership and Maintenance of Marketing Authorizations. Licensee shall be the Marketing Authorization holder in respect of the Product in each part of the Territory and shall be the main contact with respect to the regulatory authorities. Licensee shall maintain the Marketing Authorizations at its cost in the Territory for the Term; provided, however it shall be Licensor’s responsibility to provide any data and technical and scientific assistance at its own cost to maintain Marketing Authorizations for the Product in the Territory. Further, Licensee shall not amend the Product label without prior consultation and consent from Licensor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

6.7 Meetings and Correspondence and Authorities’ Approach.

6.7.1 To the extent either Party receives any written or oral communications relating to the Product from any regulatory authority in the Territory,

such Party will promptly inform the other Party thereof (by providing a copy of any written communication or a written account of any oral communication), but in no event later than five (5) business days after receipt of such communication.

6.7.2 Each Party will promptly notify the other Party and provide such other Party with a copy of any correspondence or other reports or complaints submitted to or received by the first Party from any regulatory authority in the Territory or from any other Third Party claiming that any Product promotional materials are inconsistent with the Product’s labeling or are otherwise in violation of applicable law or regulation. Licensor shall in any event without any delay prepare and provide Licensee with the appropriate draft response to any such regulatory authority which may have directed questions, requests, or comments to the Licensee concerning Product within the Territory. In addition, Licensor shall without any delay submit to Licensee any and all documents and/or Product data with relevance in respect of such approach by the regulatory authorities.

6.7.3 Each Party will provide the other Party with a copy of any documents or reports filed with any regulatory authority in the Territory during the Term with respect to the Product.

6.8 Pricing and Reimbursement Approval. Licensee shall use commercially reasonable effort to obtain commercially viable Pricing Approvals from the appropriate regulatory agencies within the Territory that require Pricing Approvals, and, if required by regulatory authorities, to obtain Reimbursement Approval for each country in the Territory.

6.9 Adverse Events Reporting. Licensee shall establish drug safety reporting procedures within the Territory, as are ordinarily implemented for human pharmaceutical products such as the Product, for the specific purpose of receiving drug safety and adverse events reports. Subsequent to execution of this Agreement, but no later than six (6) months before commercial launch of Product in the Territory, the Parties will enter into a Pharmacovigilance Agreement describing the procedures to be established and detailing the responsibilities of each Party with respect to such procedures.

6.10 Right of Reference. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Licensor hereby grants to Licensee a fully paid, exclusive right and license to reference any Marketing Authorizations Controlled by Licensor for Product outside the Territory for the purpose of obtaining Marketing Authorization of the Product in one or more countries in the Territory.

7.	COMMERCIALIZATION

7.1 Principles of Commercialization. Licensee will be solely responsible for the commercialization of the Product in the State Territories during the Term as set forth in the applicable Marketing Plan. Licensee will bear all expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of the Marketing Plan.

7.2 Marketing Plan.

7.2.1 Licensee will commercialize the Product in the Territory pursuant to an annually updated marketing plan (“Marketing Plan”). In consultation with Licensor, Licensee will prepare the Marketing Plan according to Licensee’s marketing planning process and will include at a minimum in each Marketing Plan, medical education and communication, publications, congress and symposia, patient education, life cycle management, brand strategy, pan-EU brand positioning, key messages, Phase IV program, public relations, sales and distribution strategies. Each Marketing Plan will identify commercial milestones and describe the Product’s positioning and specify the target physician and patient populations and distribution channels to which Licensee will devote its promotional efforts, the personnel and other resources by or on behalf of Licensee as well as market and sales forecasts for the Product in the Territory.

7.2.2 The initial Marketing Plan for the Product will be prepared by Licensee and shared with Licensor in accordance with its procedures and in due time before commercial launch of such Product. A preliminary Marketing Plan will be prepared no later than twelve (12) months prior to the expected date of launch of the Product in the Territory. The preliminary Marketing Plan will include pre-launch and initial launch marketing activities. Should Licensee, to an unreasonable extent, delay or postpone the launch of the Product in any of the five Major Markets for reasons not beyond Licensee’s control, Licensor shall be entitled but not obliged to “march-in” to ensure the launch of the Product in any such country, and Licensee’s rights with respect to any such countries may be terminated.

7.2.3 Licensee will submit the final draft of the initial and updated Marketing Plan to the Licensor for review and comment. The Licensor will have twenty (20) working days to provide comments on such draft to Licensee, and Licensee will reasonably consider and address such comments prior to finalization and implementation of such plan.

7.2.4 Branding Framework. Licensor shall review the Marketing Plan with a view to optimize the value of the Product and maintain brand consistency for the Product in the Territory that is not in conflict with Licensor’s global commercialization strategy. Together with the Marketing Plan, Licensee shall submit to Licensor a plan for the branding framework outlining which branding concepts, positioning statements and efficacy/safety claims that Licensee intends to use during the coming year. After discussions have taken place in the CT and after Licensor’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, of the branding framework, the Licensee shall be free to adapt the global marketing guidance to address regional needs and develop and use promotional and marketing materials within such framework. For promotion and marketing material outside the Branding Framework, drafts thereof shall be sent to Licensor for consent. Should Licensor not revert to Licensee with an indication of consenting or not within ten (10) business days, Licensor’s consent shall be deemed given. Licensor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise the option to review, upon delivery of prior written notice, all promotional material prior to use within the Territory. If the option is exercised, such review shall not take longer than five (5) business days after receipt of the promotional material, which shall be accompanied by an English translation prepared by Licensee.

7.3 Diligence.

7.3.1 General Diligence Obligations. Licensee will use commercially reasonable efforts to perform the activities set forth under each Marketing Plan. Licensee will promote, market, sell and distribute the Product in the Territory by applying efforts and resources as reasonably required to capture the commercial potential of the Product throughout the Territory and at least equal to the efforts and resources normally used by a similarly situated pharmaceutical company for a product owned by it which has a similar market potential and is at a similar stage in its product life cycle as the Product. All efforts of Licensee’s Affiliates, sub-licensees or distributors will be considered efforts of Licensee for the purpose of determining Licensee’s compliance with its obligations under this Section 7.3.1.

7.3.2 Minimum Launch Diligence Obligations. Licensee will launch the Product in each country in the Nycomed Territory, as defined below, as soon as reasonably possible after receipt of Marketing Authorization, Pricing and Reimbursement Approval, for the Product in such country, but in no event later than four (4) months after such receipt; provided, however, that such 4-month period will be tolled during such time as commercial supply of such Product is not available to Licensee and such lack of availability is not due to any act or omission by Licensee.

7.3.3 Licensee undertakes to launch the Product through its own sales and marketing organization in Germany, UK, France, Italy, Spain, Greece, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, Sweden, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx and CIS (“the Nycomed Territory”) and to establish and maintain the necessary personnel to perform sales and marketing activities towards relevant target groups of hospital and office based specialists. Schedule 7.3.2 contains a description of Licensee’s initial sales and marketing personnel commitment to the Territory during the first five years from launch. Such allocation shall be fully in place twelve (12) months from launch and shall not be decreased by more than thirty-five percent (35%) in a State Territory or more than twenty-five percent (25%) overall Territory without prior consultation and approval by Licensor.

7.3.4 Licensee further undertakes to seek sub-licensees or distributors to reasonably capture the commercial potential of the Product in the Territory outside the Nycomed Territory and actively supervise and support such sub-licensees or distributors to comply with Licensee’s Diligence obligations.

7.3.5 Diligence Limitations. If Licensee determines that launching the Product in a State Territory would not be commercially viable or would substantially limit the commercial potential of the Product in other State Territories, then Licensee will provide Licensor with written notice of such determination and with copies of or access to all evidence considered by Licensee in making such determination. Such evidence will be updated annually on request by Licensor for as long as Licensee does not launch Product in any State Territory.

7.3.6 Licensee Diligence Concerning Shipment of Product Outside the Territory. Licensee may not deliver or tender (or cause to be delivered or tendered) any Product outside of the Territory. If Licensee receives any order from a prospective purchaser located outside the Territory, Licensee shall immediately refer that order to Licensor. Licensee shall not accept any such orders. Notwithstanding anything in this

Section 7.3.6 to the contrary, if Licensee receives an unsolicited order for Product from a prospective purchaser located outside the Territory, and such purchaser is committed to resell the Product back into the Territory, then Licensee may accept such order.

7.4 Licensor Trademarks. Licensee shall have the right to use the Licensor Trademarks on an exclusive basis in the Territory during the term of this Agreement solely for display, advertising, labeling and packaging purposes in connection with marketing, selling and distributing Product and Devices in accordance with this Agreement.

Licensor will perform a risk analysis for the Major Markets, reasonable in scope and cost, with respect to those Licensor Patents and Third Party Patents reasonably agreed to by the Parties in relation to the Product.

8.2 Ownership of Improvements and Clinical Trial Data. All Improvements and, with respect to Nycomed Clinical Trials, Core Studies and other work to be carried out under this Agreement, including the Development Plan, data generated from such activities shall be owned by Licensor and ownership is hereby assigned to Licensor, subject to the licenses granted under Section 2 of this Agreement. Improvements and data arising from Clinical Trials arising under Section 5.1.5, which are not co-funded, shall be owned by the party assuming total responsibility for such Clinical Trial.

8.3 Prosecution and Maintenance of Licensor Patents. Licensor shall remain responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for patent prosecution and maintenance of Licensor Patents and shall bear all expenses associated therewith, including, without limitation, prosecution, renewal and other fees necessary to maintain the Licensor Patents in full force and effect until the earlier of their expiration or the termination or expiration of this Agreement. If, during the Term of the Agreement, Licensor intends to allow any Licensor Patent in the Territory to lapse or become abandoned, Licensor shall notify Licensee, promptly and in writing, of such intention, whereupon the parties shall discuss in good faith and in a timely fashion whether or not Licensee may assume further responsibility for the prosecution, maintenance, and defense of such Licensor Patents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that Licensor may not allow any Licensor Patent to lapse or become abandoned that would be necessary and/or advantageous for Licensee to fulfill its obligations under the Agreement.

8.4 Prosecution and Maintenance of Licensor Trademarks.

8.4.1 Licensee shall, with the support from Licensor, investigate the use of PREOS as a tradename for the Product in the Territory. Licensor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file the necessary applications for the purpose of

The Parties agree to confer in good faith regarding such potential infringement risk and to explore reasonable alternatives for avoiding such risk.

8.5.2 Defense by Licensor. If a Third Party files a claim, suit or action against Licensee claiming that a Patent or other intellectual property right owned by it is infringed or misappropriated by the distribution, marketing or sale or even manufacture, as the case may be, of Product or Device in the Territory, and such claim, suit or action arises out of Licensee’s permissible exercise of its rights under this Agreement, the Parties shall confer in good faith regarding such alleged infringement or misappropriation. Licensor shall be obligated, at its own costs, to defend any such claims, suits or actions. Licensee will assist in the defense of any such claim, suit or action as reasonably requested by Licensor. Licensor shall not settle any such claim, suit or action if such settlement would impose on Licensee the obligation to pay any damages (including royalties under a license) without the prior express written consent of Licensee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

8.6 Infringement of Licensor Technology.

8.6.1 Notice of Infringement.

8.6.2 Prosecution by Licensor. Licensor may, but shall not be obligated to commence an infringement action against any person or entity infringing, including infringement or misappropriating the Licensed Technology directly or contributorily. Licensee shall cooperate with Licensor as reasonably requested. The costs of such enforcement shall be shared equally between the parties. If Licensee so desires, it may retain counsel and experts of its own choosing; provided, however, that this shall not

relieve Licensee from its obligations to share the costs incurred by Licensor as provided above. Any and all amounts recovered with respect to such an action shall be applied first to reimburse the Parties for their out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in prosecuting such infringement or misappropriation. The remainder shall be deemed Net Sales under this Agreement and be treated accordingly.

8.6.3 Prosecution by Licensee. In the event Licensor is unable to or elects not to commence action against the person or entity responsible for the alleged infringement or misappropriation within ninety (90) days of the date of Licensor’s becoming aware of such infringement, then Licensee may, but shall not be required to, prosecute the alleged infringement or threatened infringement. In such event, Licensee shall act in its own name and at its own expense. Expenses incurred by Licensee may be offset against Net Sales. Licensor shall cooperate with Licensee as reasonably requested including being named as a Party if necessary, at Licensee’s expense. If Licensor so desires, it may actively participate in such action at a later date, at its own expense. Any amounts recovered with respect to such an action shall be applied first to reimburse the Parties for their out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees in the prosecution of such infringement. The remainder shall be deemed Net Sales under this Agreement and be treated accordingly, to the extent Licensee has not already offset Net Sales by its expenses.

8.6.4 If a Party elects not to bear an equal share of the costs of such an action, such party may opt out of such costs by providing the other Party with adequate notice, which shall be given before initiation of the trial, of its intention not to participate in the costs of the enforcement action.

8.7.2 Infringement by Licensee. The Licensor shall indemnify and hold the Licensee harmless from any claims and liability from a Third Party arising out of the Licensee’s infringement of a Third Party’s trademark rights in the Territory by exercising its rights to the Licensor Trademarks under this Agreement.

The purchase price for each Unit of Product ordered during the next twenty-four (24) months shall be €[*] per Unit of Product. The purchase price per Unit of Product ordered during the next twenty-four (24) months shall be the lower of €[*] plus the annual average percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for the three-year period prior to the beginning of such period and adjusted thereafter on an annual basis, or the Actual True Cost of Goods for a Unit of Product at that time. Thereafter, the purchase price per Unit of Product shall be the Actual True Cost of Goods.

15.4.1 Consumer Price Index shall mean for purposes of this Section 15, the annual average “Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the U.S. City Average for All Items, 1982-84=100” as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor.

15.5 Devices Purchase Price. The purchase price for commercial (including samples) and clinical supplies of the Device will be Licensor’s Actual True Cost of Goods per Device plus [*] percent ([*]%) payable in either Swiss Francs or Euros as directed by Licensor.

15.6 Hardship Clause. If, for the period between thirty-six (36) months and sixty (60) months after the launch of Product in Territory, Licensor’s Actual True Cost of Goods per Unit of Product, for reasons outside Licensor’s control, exceeds €[*], as adjusted by the consumer price index on a yearly basis beginning one year from launch, and with the consequence that Licensor’s average royalty (after deduction of Licensor’s loss incurred on supply of Product to Licensee) falls below [*] percent ([*]%) of Net Sales, the parties shall meet in good faith to renegotiate the Product purchase price with the aim of securing Licensor’s royalty at or above [*] percent ([*]%) of Net Sales or determine such other share of hardship that may be deemed relevant under the circumstances. If net selling price for competing parathyroid hormone (PTH) or PTH-like products in the Territory are at a level below €[*] per day and if Licensee in order to be competitive needs to keep its net selling price at a level where its combined cost of goods plus royalty exceed [*] percent ([*]%) of Net Sales, or if at any time the Purchase Price for Product and Device together with the royalty due hereunder exceed [*] percent ([*]%) of Net Sales, the parties shall meet in good faith to re-negotiate royalty rates with the aim of securing Licensee’s combined cost of goods plus royalty at or below [*] percent ([*]%) of Net Sales or determining such other share of hardship that may be deemed relevant under the circumstances. If the parties are not able to agree on new royalty rates within forty-five (45) days of initiation of such discussions then the matter shall be resolved through the processes outlined in Section 21.3 and 21.4 herein. The foregoing hardship adjustments shall not apply at any time when annual Net Sales of Product in the Territory exceed €[*].

15.7 Payments for Sale of Product Outside the Territory. In the event that Product sold by a Party is discovered in the territory of the other Party then the non-selling Party shall be entitled to recover from the exporting Party the gross profits earned by the exporting Party on the sale of such Product.

15.8 Starter Kits Price. The Starter Kits will be supplied to Licensee at Licensor’s Actual True Cost of Goods for Starter Kits, utilizing the Product and Device Purchase Price set forth above.

15.9 Reports; Payment Method; Currency.

15.9.1 Royalty Payments. Licensee will provide Licensor within twenty (20) business days after the end of each calendar quarter, with a report stating the volume of Product sold in each State Territory of the Territory, invoiced sales and Net Sales and the amount of royalties due on such Net Sales. Within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, Licensee will transfer, by wire, the amount of royalties due Licensor to such bank account as Licensor may indicate from time to time. Payment of all royalties hereunder will be made in USD.

15.9.2 Payment for Product and Devices. All payments due with respect to the supply of Product and Devices hereunder or under the terms of the Supply Agreement shall be made in Euros with respect to Product and either Euros or Swiss Francs, at Licensor’s direction, with respect to Devices and shall be due and payable not later than forty-five (45) days from the date of receipt of the applicable invoice.

15.9.3 Technology Fee Payments. Technology Fee payments are due and payable no later than 30 days from the date of the event triggering the payment of the applicable Technology Fee described in 15.1.2 above.

15.9.4 Interest on Late Payments. Any payment not received within the period set forth in 15.9.1, 15.9.2 or 15.9.3 above, shall accrue interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid in full.

15.10 Withholding Taxes. Licensee and Licensor have determined that Licensee does not have an obligation to withhold taxes on payments from Licensee to Licensor hereunder. Nevertheless, in the event a tax authority in the Territory concludes that Licensee is, by law or income tax treaty, required to withhold such taxes, and after Licensee has exhausted all remedies reasonably available to avoid such withholding obligation, then Licensee may withhold such taxes and pay over such withheld amounts to the applicable tax authority. Licensee shall furnish Licensor with proof of such payments. Any such tax required to be paid or withheld shall be an expense borne by Licensor. Licensee shall promptly provide Licensor with a certificate or other documentary evidence to enable Licensor to support a claim for a refund or foreign tax credit with respect to any such tax so withheld or deducted by Licensee. At Licensor’s request, Licensee shall reasonably cooperate to support any claim by Licensor for such a refund or credit.

15.11 Audit Rights; Adjustments.

15.11.1 Licensee will permit an independent certified public accountant designated by Licensor and reasonably acceptable to Licensee (the “Auditor”), to have access to Licensee’s records and books during regular business hours for the sole purpose of determining the accuracy of the amounts reported and actually paid or otherwise payable to Licensor under the terms of this Agreement (the “Audit”). Any Audit will cover a period not to exceed three (3) years immediately preceding such audit. Licensor will bear all costs and expenses in connection with the Audit; provided, however, that if any Audit reveals an understatement of Net Sales greater than five percent (5%) of the stated amount, then Licensee will bear all costs and expenses in connection with such Audit. Any Audit will be performed, upon at least thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice, during regular business hours, and not more than once

in each calendar year during the term of this Agreement and during any calendar year in the three (3) year period following expiration or termination of this Agreement.

15.11.2 The Auditor will execute a written confidentiality agreement with Licensee and will disclose to Licensor only the amount and accuracy of payments reported and actually paid or otherwise payable under this Agreement. The Auditor will send a copy of the report to Licensee at the same time as it is sent to Licensor. The report sent to Licensee will also include the methodology and calculations used to determine the results.

15.11.3 If the Audit results in a determination that Net Sales have been overstated, then Licensor will repay the amount of any resulting overpayment to Licensee within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Auditor’s report.

15.11.4 If the Audit results in a determination that Net Sales have been understated, then any resulting underpayment will be paid to Licensor within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Auditor’s report.

16.	CONFIDENTIALITY

16.1 Confidential Information. Any information or materials communicated by one Party to the other Party pursuant to this Agreement or the Confidential Disclosure Agreement between the Parties dated February 11, 2004 will be deemed “Confidential Information” of the disclosing Party if marked “confidential” or with a similar legend, or if disclosed orally or visually, if identified as being confidential at the time of such oral or visual disclosure or which information or materials would, due to the nature thereof or the circumstances surrounding disclosure, appear to a reasonable person to be confidential or proprietary.

16.3 Access. Access to Confidential Information will be limited to those employees or consultants of the Party receiving such information or of such Party’s Affiliates who reasonably require such information in order to carry out activities authorized pursuant to this Agreement. Such employees or consultants will be advised of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the related confidentiality undertaking.

16.4 Permitted Disclosures. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, a receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing Party to the extent such disclosure is required by law or court order, provided that the receiving Party gives the disclosing Party prompt written notice of the requirement to disclose and reasonably cooperates with the disclosing Party to seek a protective order or other restrictions on the disclosure of such Confidential Information of the disclosing Party. Any such required disclosure will be limited only to that Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed and such disclosed Confidential Information will remain Confidential Information hereunder despite the required disclosure. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, either Party may disclose this Agreement (and prior to signing the draft versions hereof) and any and all Schedules and other Attachments hereto and financial calculations to be derived from this Agreement to existing or potential investors or potential buyers of the Parties hereto whom are subject to Confidentiality Agreements with terms similar to those contained herein.

16.5 Return of Confidential Information. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, each Party hereto and its Affiliates will return all Confidential Information of the other Party in its possession to the other Party; provided, however, that each Party may retain:

16.5.1 a single archival copy of the Confidential Information of the other Party solely for the purpose of determining the extent of disclosure of Confidential Information hereunder and assuring compliance with the surviving provisions of this Agreement;

16.5.2 any portion of the Confidential Information of the other Party which is contained in laboratory notebooks; and

16.5.3 any portion of the Confidential Information of the other Party that a Party is required by mandatory applicable law to retain.

16.6 Confidentiality of the Agreement Terms. Neither Party will disclose the terms of this Agreement to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that either Party may disclose the terms of this Agreement to actual or prospective investors and corporate partners (including Sublicensees), to a Party’s accountants, attorneys and other professional advisors, and as required by applicable laws and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange on which a Party’s stock or other instruments are or may be traded.

17.	ASSIGNMENT

17.1 The Parties recognize that each Party may perform some or all of its obligations under this Agreement through Affiliates, provided, however, that each Party will remain responsible for the performance by its Affiliates and will cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance and any act or omission committed by an Affiliate shall be deemed to have been conducted by the Party itself. Each Party hereby expressly waives any requirement that the other Party exhaust any right, power or remedy, or proceeds against an Affiliate, for any obligation or performance hereunder prior to proceeding directly against such Party.

17.2 Neither Party will assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the other Party; except that either Party may assign such rights and obligations to an Affiliate of the respective Party or to the surviving entity pursuant to a merger, acquisition or consolidation, or to a Third Party acquiring all or substantially all assets of a Party. All permitted assignments by either Party of any of its rights under this Agreement will be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. All successors, permitted assignees of either Party will be subject to, and will be bound by, all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any purported assignment not permitted under the terms of this Agreement will be null, void, and of no effect.

18.	JOINT PUBLICITY

Neither party shall unreasonably withhold such approval. Failure to respond within said time shall be deemed to constitute an approval. Absent approval, no public disclosure shall use the name of or otherwise describe such Party except to the extent as may be required by law in the reasonable judgment of the respective Party’s counsel, or to the extent that the description of the other Party is limited to public information about the availability of the Product.
