-----------------
(a) Patent and Know-How License. Subject to the terms and conditions
---------------------------
of this Agreement, Savient grants to Cytogen, during the Term, the exclusive
(even as to Savient and its Affiliates) right and license, with the right to
sublicense, under the Licensed Know-How and Licensed Patents to import, sell,
offer to sell, market, distribute, promote and detail Licensed Product in the
Territory solely for use in the Field. If during the Term, Cytogen or its
Affiliate challenges the validity or enforceability in the Territory of any
patent within the Licensed Patents, then Savient shall have the right (but not
the obligation) to terminate all licenses to Cytogen under this Agreement.
(b) Trademark License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
-----------------
Agreement, Savient grants to Cytogen, during the Term, (i) the exclusive right
and license, with the right to sublicense, to use the Licensed Trademark(s)
solely in connection with the marketing, promotion and sale of the Licensed
Product in the Territory for use in the Field, and (ii) the non-exclusive right
and license, with the right to sublicense, to use the Licensed House Xxxx(s)
solely in connection with the marketing, promotion and sale of the Licensed
Product in the Territory for use in the Field. Cytogen acknowledges that all of
its uses of the Licensed Trademark(s) and Licensed House Xxxx(s) shall inure to
the benefit of Savient, and that Cytogen shall not acquire any ownership rights
in and to the Licensed Trademark(s) or the Licensed House Xxxx(s) by virtue of
its uses of those trademarks hereunder.
(c) Right to Sublicense. Cytogen may sublicense its rights and
-------------------
licenses granted under Sections 2.1(a) and 2.1(b) to any Affiliate without
Savient's written consent. However, Cytogen may sublicense its rights and
licenses granted under Sections 2.1(a) and 2.1(b) to a Third Party only with
Savient's express written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. It shall be deemed reasonable to withhold consent to
sublicense a Third Party that is actively selling a competitive pharmaceutical
product with a similar indication in the Territory. If Cytogen sublicenses its
rights and licenses under this Agreement, Cytogen shall nevertheless continue to
be liable for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, and shall
be fully responsible for the actions of its sublicensees.
-6-
2.2 Grants to Savient. Cytogen shall grant a non-exclusive,
---------------------
non-royalty-bearing license, during the Term, in the Field, in the Territory, to
any Cytogen patents Covering the making, use, importation, sale, offer to sell,
marketing, distribution, promotion, detailing or development of Licensed Product
where such patents are either (i) owned or Controlled by Cytogen as of the
Effective Date, or (ii) mature from any patent applications filed during the
Term or claim any inventions conceived or reduced to practice during the Term
(collectively, the "CYTOGEN PATENTS"). At Savient's written request, Cytogen
shall grant a license (outside the Field, or outside the Territory, or
subsequent to the Term of this Agreement) to any Cytogen Patent selected by
Savient under fair and reasonable terms to be negotiated by the parties in good
faith. The royalty rate or other financial terms of any such license agreement
shall be no less favorable to Savient than the royalty rate or financial terms
of any license agreement between Cytogen and a Third Party relating to the same
Cytogen Patent licensed to Savient. This Section 2.2 shall survive termination
of this Agreement.
2.3 Third Party Licenses. In the event that Cytogen reasonably believes
--------------------
that a Third Party license is required for the making, using, selling, offering
to sell, or importing of the Licensed Product in the Territory under such Third
Party's intellectual property, it shall so inform Savient and Savient shall have
the obligation to obtain such license or sublicense on such terms agreed by the
parties in order to avoid infringing the Valid Claim of a Third Party. In the
event that Savient fails to obtain such Third Party license for any reason, then
Cytogen may obtain such Third Party license, whereupon [**]. In any event,
Savient shall be responsible for any royalties or other payments (e.g.,
milestone payments, etc.) that become due to any Third Party with respect to the
making, using, selling, offering to sell, or importing of a Licensed Product in
the Field in the Territory (except to the extent such license is needed solely
in connection with Detailing, in which case Cytogen shall be solely responsible
for any and all costs associated with such license). For clarity, any such
payments to a Third Party shall in no event be included in the calculation of
the Cost of Goods or as a deduction from Net Sales.
III. DEVELOPMENT; REGULATORY ISSUES
------------------------------
3.1 Development by Savient.
----------------------
(a) Development in the Field. Savient and/or its Affiliates shall be
------------------------
solely responsible, at their sole cost and expense, for obtaining and
maintaining Regulatory Approvals for commercial sale of the Licensed Product in
the Field in the Territory.
(b) Labeling Change. Savient shall use commercially reasonable
----------------
efforts to file a sNDA (which requests a labeling change that would allow [**].
If Savient fails to file such a sNDA on or before [**], then Cytogen's royalty
payment obligation under section 6.2 shall be [**] until such time as Savient
files a sNDA. When Savient files such a sNDA (whether or not the FDA ultimately
approves the sNDA), the royalty obligation shall be restored to the full royalty
rates specified in section 6.2.
(c) Development in Canada. If Savient should seek approval to market
---------------------
the Licensed Product in Canada, then Cytogen shall have a right of first
negotiation to license rights to Licensed Product in Canada. The parties shall
negotiate in good faith the terms of such license. The terms of such a license
agreement shall include an upfront payment to Savient equal to the
-7-
greater of [**] times Savient's fully burdened expenses in obtaining marketing
authorization in Canada, including the costs of any clinical trials. If after
three (3) months of good faith negotiations, the parties are unable to reach
agreement on the terms of a license agreement, then Savient shall be free (i) to
market, promote, detail and/or sell the Licensed Product in Canada, or (ii) to
enter into an agreement with a Third Party to market, promote, detail and/or
sell the Licensed Product in Canada.
(d) Other Development. Savient and/or its Affiliates, at their sole
------------------
discretion and their sole cost and expense, may develop the Licensed Product for
indications outside the Field and/or develop other products for the treatment of
breast cancer. If Savient or its Affiliate decides to (i) develop the Licensed
Product for indications outside the Field or (ii) develop an oral liquid product
for the treatment of breast cancer, then Savient (or its Affiliate, as the case
may be) shall keep Cytogen reasonably informed about such clinical development,
but Savient shall retain all decision-making authority with regard to such
development. In such case, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to amend
this Agreement to extend the scope of Cytogen's license to include such other
indications or other oral liquid products. If the parties fail to reach
agreement on terms relating to the extension of the scope of Cytogen's license,
the parties shall negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement to address the
issue of off-label use and cannibalization of sales of the Licensed Product in
oncology by the new oral liquid tamoxifen product in the new indication.
(e) Ownership of Data and Regulatory Approvals. Except as otherwise
-------------------------------------------
set forth in this Agreement, all data and information generated by Savient
development activities pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall be owned by Savient
and/or its Affiliates and shall be deemed Licensed Know-How. Savient and/or its
Affiliates shall own all Regulatory Approvals. Savient shall grant to Cytogen
the sole and exclusive right to market the Licensed Product under Savient's
and/or its Affiliates' Regulatory Approvals in the Field in the Territory.
Cytogen shall own all Prescriber Data, marketing (including the Promotion Plan),
sales, distribution and other commercialization data and other marketing, sales,
distribution and commercialization information resulting from the distribution
of the Licensed Product by Cytogen following the Effective Date. Upon request,
Cytogen shall make available to Savient any data or information within Cytogen's
(or Cytogen's Affiliates') possession or control that Savient may need to comply
with FDA reporting requirements and other regulations; Cytogen shall provide
copies of any documents, in electronic or paper form as requested by Savient,
within three (3) business days of Savient's request. Upon termination or
expiration of this Agreement for any reason other than Savient's breach, Cytogen
shall (to the extent that Cytogen has a right to do so) transfer ownership to
Savient of all then-current Prescriber Data, marketing (including the Promotion
Plan), sales, distribution and other commercialization data and other marketing,
sales, distribution and commercialization information resulting from the
distribution of the Licensed Product by Cytogen. If the Agreement is terminated
because of Savient's breach, then Savient shall pay Cytogen fair and reasonable
compensation to be negotiated in good faith by the parties (but not to exceed
Cytogen's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in transferring such data
and information) to compensate Cytogen for its efforts to transfer to Savient
the above-described data and information.
3.2 Adverse Event Reporting. Cytogen and Savient shall notify each other
-----------------------
of all information coming into its possession concerning any and all side
effects, injury, toxicity,
-8-
pregnancy or sensitivity event associated with commercial or clinical uses,
studies, investigations or tests with Licensed Product, throughout the world,
whether or not determined to be attributable to Licensed Product ("ADVERSE EVENT

information under this Section 3.2.

[**] [**] and later
(a) During any quarter in which the royalty payment due Savient as
calculated pursuant to Section 6.2 is less than the Minimum Royalty Payment
calculated pursuant to this Section 6.3, then Cytogen shall pay Savient the
Minimum Royalty Payment rather than the royalty payments due under Section 6.2 .

payments shall be paid within [**] of the end of the calendar quarter during
which such sales were made or during which such sales milestone was achieved.
6.7 Sublicenses. Any Net Sales or gross sales by a Cytogen sublicensee
-----------
shall be treated as Net Sales and gross sales, respectively, of Cytogen, for the
purposes of payments under this Article VI. If Cytogen grants any sublicenses
under this Agreement, then Cytogen shall obtain the written commitment of such
sublicensees to abide by all applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement,
but Cytogen shall remain responsible to Savient for the performance by such
sublicensee of any and all terms.
6.8 Interest. In the event that Cytogen is late in paying to Savient any
--------
amounts due under this Agreement within the applicable time period set forth

by Cytogen in good faith.
VII. PAYMENTS, REPORTS, AND ACCOUNTING
---------------------------------
7.1 Monthly Royalty Payments and Reports. Cytogen agrees to make payments
------------------------------------
within [**] after the end of each calendar quarter covering all sales of
Licensed Product in the Territory by Cytogen for which invoices were sent during
such calendar quarter. Cytogen agrees to provide written reports to Savient
within [**] after the end of each calendar month covering all sales of Licensed
Product in the Territory by Cytogen for which invoices were sent during such
calendar month. Each report shall state for the period in question:
(a) for Licensed Product disposed of by sale, the gross sales of
Licensed Product, and the detailed calculation of Net Sales;

quantity, description, and nature of the disposition; and
(c) the calculation of the amount due to Savient for such month
pursuant to Article VI.
7.2 Accounting. Cytogen agrees to keep full, clear and accurate records
----------
for a period of at least [**], setting forth the sales and other disposition of

-13-
7.3 Audit. Cytogen further agrees to permit its books and records to be
-----
examined by a nationally recognized independent certified public accounting firm
selected by Savient and reasonably acceptable to Cytogen and retained solely for
the purpose of auditing the same at Savient's expense to verify records provided
for in this Article VII. Such audit shall be conducted exclusively for the
purpose of verifying the accuracy of reports delivered by Cytogen to Savient
pursuant to Sections 7.1 and 7.2 and the accuracy of Cytogen's determination of
the amounts payable or paid by Cytogen to Savient hereunder. Such audit shall
not be performed more frequently that [**] nor more frequently than [**] with
respect to records covering any specific period of time. Such examination is to
be made at the expense of Savient, except in the event that the results of the
audit reveal a discrepancy in favor of Cytogen of [**] or more over the period
being audited, in which case reasonable audit fees for such examination shall be
paid by Cytogen. Cytogen shall pay to Savient within thirty (30) days after the
delivery of the accountant's report pursuant to this Section any undisputed
amounts determined by the accountant, and verified by Cytogen, to be payable by
Cytogen to Savient. If the accountant determines that Cytogen has overpaid
Savient, Savient shall, at the election of Cytogen, credit Cytogen in an amount
equal to such overpayment on the immediately succeeding invoice rendered to
Cytogen, or pay Cytogen such amount within [**] after receipt of an invoice
therefor.
7.4 Methods of Payments. All payments due under this Agreement shall be
-------------------
paid in United States dollars by wire transfer to a bank in the United States
designated in writing by Savient. For the purpose of Net Sales for Licensed
Product sold in a currency other than United States dollars, Cytogen shall
convert the amount of Net Sales in foreign currencies using the average exchange
rate (as reported by Reuters or other reliable source of exchange rate
information, as agreed to by the parties) for the quarter in which the sales
occurred (in the case of royalty payments) or for the relevant time period for
any other payments.
7.5 Taxes. If provision is made in law or regulation of any country of
-----
the Territory for withholding of taxes of any type, levies or other charges with
respect to the any amounts payable hereunder to Savient, Cytogen shall promptly
pay such tax, levy or charge for and on behalf of Savient to the proper
governmental authority, and shall promptly furnish Savient with receipt of such
payment. Cytogen shall have the right to deduct any such tax, levy or charge
actually paid from payment due Savient or be promptly reimbursed by Savient if
no further payments are due Savient. Cytogen agrees to assist Savient in
claiming exemption from such deductions or withholdings under double taxation or
similar agreement or treaty from time to time in force and in minimizing the
amount required to be so withheld or deducted. Cytogen shall be solely
responsible for any sales or use taxes attributable to sale or disposition of
Licensed Product by Cytogen, including any taxes relating to Licensed Product
samples.
VIII. OWNERSHIP OF TECHNOLOGY AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
-------------------------------------------------
8.1 Ownership. Ownership of the Licensed Know-How and the Licensed
---------
Patents shall remain vested at all times in Savient. Savient expressly reserves
under this Agreement all rights to use the Licensed Know-How, the Licensed
Patents, the Joint Patents, and any other Savient patents to make, have made,
use, import, offer to sell and sell Licensed Product outside of the Territory.
Each party shall promptly disclose to the other party all Inventions made by it
during the Term. The determination of inventorship for inventions shall be made
in accordance
-14-
with applicable laws relating to inventorship set forth in the patent laws of
the Xxxxxx Xxxxxx (Xxxxx 00, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code).
8.2 Savient Inventions. As between the parties, Savient shall own any
------------------
and all inventions invented, either solely or jointly with Third Parties, by the
employees or agents of Savient, and any patents Covering such inventions. To the
extent that any such patent Covers the use, importation, sale or offer to sell
the Licensed Product in the Field, such patent shall be deemed a Licensed
Patent, and Cytogen shall have an exclusive license to such patent pursuant to
Section 2.1(a).
8.3 Joint Inventions. Savient and Cytogen shall each own an undivided
-----------------
equal interest in any Joint Invention and any Joint Patents. Both parties shall
at all times have the co-exclusive right within the Territory to practice, or to
make, have made, use, import, offer for sale or sell any Joint Invention outside
the Field under any Joint Patent, and neither party shall be obligated to
account to the other. As used herein, a right to practice any Joint Patent
without any obligation to account shall include the right to grant licenses
without the consent of: the other party; provided that a written notice will be
promptly provided. To the extent either party needs the consent of the other
party to exploit its co-exclusive or exclusive rights with respect to Joint
Patents, including the right to sublicense or enforce such Joint Patents, the
other party shall cooperate with the party making such a request and promptly
supply all needed consents, signatures and the like.
8.4 Cytogen Technology. If during the Term, Cytogen develops any know-how
------------------
relating to the use, manufacture, marketing, promotion, distribution or sale of
the Licensed Product (the "CYTOGEN KNOW-HOW"), Cytogen shall immediately grant a
non-exclusive, non-royalty-bearing license to Savient, during the Term, in the
Field, in the Territory to use such know-how for the Licensed Product in the
Field; Savient and Cytogen shall mutually agree upon reasonable financial
compensation to Cytogen in connection with the grant of such license to Savient
for any use outside the Field or outside the Territory or after the Term. Such
license shall be with immediate effect upon development of such know-how without
the need for execution of a separate agreement or other formal document
memorializing the grant of such license. At Savient's written request, Cytogen
shall grant a license (outside the Field, or outside the Territory, or
subsequent to the Term of this Agreement) to Cytogen Know-How under fair and
reasonable terms to be negotiated by the parties in good faith. The royalty rate
or other financial terms of any such license agreement shall be no less
favorable to Savient than the royalty rate or financial terms of any license
agreement between Cytogen and a Third Party relating to the same Cytogen
Know-How licensed to Savient. If Cytogen, subsequent to entering into such a
license agreement with Savient, licenses the same Cytogen Know-How to a Third
Party under financial terms that are more favorable to the licensee than the
terms of the license to Savient, the parties shall amend such license agreement
to include the more favorable financial terms. This Section 8.4 shall survive
termination of this Agreement.
IX. Trademarks.
----------
9.1 Ownership. Savient shall exclusively own all Licensed Trademarks and
---------
the Licensed House Marks, and shall retain the right to use the Licensed House
Marks in the Territory in connection with the marketing and Promotion of any
products other than the

conditioned, or delayed) a sample of Cytogen's trade dress to be utilized to
distribute the Licensed Products in the Territory (the "CYTOGEN TRADE DRESS")
which shall be in accordance with all applicable laws. Cytogen hereby grants to
Savient the right to use, with the right to grant its Affiliates the right to
use, such Cytogen Trade Dress in the Territory solely for the purpose of
performing its obligations under this Agreement. Cytogen shall own and retain
all rights to the Cytogen Trade Dress and all goodwill associated therewith. The
Cytogen Trade Dress shall be used only pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
to identify, and in connection with, the distribution of the Licensed Products
in the Territory, and shall not be used by either party to identify, or in
connection with, the marketing of any other products. Except as otherwise set
forth in this Agreement, Savient's (and its Affiliates') right to use the
Cytogen Trade Dress shall automatically terminate upon the termination or
expiration of this Agreement.
9.3 Selection, Prosecution and Maintenance. The parties shall jointly
----------------------------------------
select a trademark or trademarks to use for marketing and Promotion of the

of the Licensed Products and Promotional Materials offered by Cytogen in
connection with the Licensed Trademark(s) and the Licensed House Marks; and (ii)
permit Savient to inspect [**], during regular business hours and on reasonable
prior written request, the portions of the premises and facilities (except with
respect to current Third Party subcontractors, in such case Cytogen shall only
be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Third Party to
allow such inspection) where the
-16-
Licensed Products will be stored under the Licensed Trademark(s) and the
Licensed House Marks.
(b) Cytogen agrees to comply with applicable laws and regulations
relating to the use of the Licensed Trademark(s), including, but not limited to,

------------------
initials "TM" (or (TM)) in association with the Licensed Trademark(s), until
such time as Cytogen is informed that a form of the Licensed Trademark(s) has
been registered for any one or more of the Licensed Products. Within a prompt
and reasonable time thereafter, if requested by Savient, Cytogen shall use the
notation (R) in association with each such registered form of the Licensed
Trademark(s) for any such goods; provided that Savient shall be solely
responsible for the cost of any repackaging of the Licensed Products, if
applicable.
9.6 Trademark Legend. To the extent practicable based on the nature and
----------------
size of the Promotional Material in question, Cytogen shall place on all
Promotional Materials which show the Licensed Trademark(s) and/or the Licensed

maintain all of the patents and applications included within the Licensed
Patents, to the extent it has the rights to do so. Savient shall retain control
over such prosecution and maintenance, including selection of patent prosecution
counsel, but will confer in good faith with Cytogen in developing and
implementing a patent procurement strategy.
(b) If Savient fails to prosecute and maintain the patents and
applications included within the Licensed Patents, Cytogen shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to prosecute and maintain on behalf of Savient such
patents and applications (with Savient's full cooperation). In such case,
Savient shall reimburse Cytogen for all reasonable costs and expenses (including

priority patent applications Covering Joint Inventions in any country in the
world except for the Territory and if Savient declines to file such applications
then Cytogen may do so. Cytogen will have the first right of election to file
priority patent applications Covering Joint Inventions in the Territory and if
Cytogen declines to file such applications then Savient may do so.
(b) The party performing the priority patent filings (the "FILING
PARTY") for Joint Inventions pursuant to this Section 10.2 undertakes to perform
the corresponding convention filings from case to case, after having discussed
the countries for foreign filings with the other party. The party not performing
the priority patent filings (the "NON-FILING PARTY") for Joint Inventions
pursuant to this Section 10.2 undertakes, without cost to the Filing Party, to
obtain all necessary assignment documents for the Filing Party, to render all
signatures that shall be necessary for such patent filings and to assist the
Filing Party in all other reasonable ways that are necessary for the issuance of
the patents involved as well as for the maintenance and prosecution of such
patents. The Non-Filing Party shall on request be authorized by the Filing Party
to have access to the files concerning such patents in any patent offices in the
world.
(c) Should the Filing Party decide that it is no longer interested in
maintaining or prosecuting a Joint Patent, it shall promptly advise the other
party thereof. On the written request of such other party, such Joint Patent
shall be assigned to the other party at mutually agreeable terms. If any such
patents or patent applications are assigned to Cytogen, Savient and its
Affiliates shall be granted a worldwide immunity from suit thereunder; and if
any such patents or patent applications are assigned to Savient, Cytogen and its
Affiliates shall be granted a worldwide immunity from suit thereunder.
10.3 General Procedures. Until termination of this Agreement, the parties
------------------
shall observe the following procedures for prosecution of patent applications
for inventions arising from this Agreement:
(a) As soon as one of the parties concludes that it wishes to file a
patent application covering a Joint Invention, it shall immediately inform the
other party thereof and consult about the filing procedures concerning such
patent application. For this purpose, such party will provide the other party
with the determination of inventors and scope of claims as early as possible. If
a party is faced with possible loss of rights if a priority application is not
filed immediately, such communications may take place promptly after filing a
convention application.
(b) The Filing Party shall be obliged to prosecute and reasonably
maintain such applications and any patents resulting therefrom. On request of
the Filing Party, the Non-Filing Party shall cooperate (and cause its employees,
consultants and subcontractors to cooperate with
-18-
the Filing Party), in all reasonable ways, in connection with the prosecution of
all such patent applications relating to Joint Inventions. The Filing Party
shall advise the Non-Filing Party of any substantial action or development in
the prosecution of its patent applications and patents, in particular of the
question of scope, the issuance of, or the rejection of, an interference
involving or an opposition to any respective patent application or patent.
(c) Inventions and other intellectual property made by either party
outside the Field shall be excluded from the provisions of this Agreement and
shall belong solely to the party having made the invention or other intellectual
property.

strategically advantageous (as determined by the parties in consultation with
their respective patent litigation counsel) for Cytogen to be included as a
party. Cytogen shall bear its own costs if it is joined as a party to the
litigation.
(c) Allocation of Recovery. In the event that Cytogen decides to pay
----------------------
a portion of Savient's litigation expenses as provided in Section 11.1(b), any
damages or monetary awards (including any settlement payments) recovered by
Savient shall first be applied to reimburse pro rata each party's reasonable
litigation expenses, and the balance shall be shared by the parties in
proportion to the costs and expenses borne by each party. In the event that
Cytogen decides not to pay a portion of Savient's litigation expenses, any
damages or monetary awards (including any
-19-
settlement payments) recovered shall first be applied to reimburse Savient an
amount equal to its reasonable costs and expenses in connection with such
litigation, and then to reimburse Cytogen for its reasonable costs and expenses
in connection with such litigation. Savient shall then retain any remaining
damages or monetary award (including settlement payments), except that Cytogen
shall be entitled to receive [**] of any remaining damages attributable to lost
profits, with Savient receiving the remaining [**] of the lost profits award;
Savient shall be entitled to receive [**] any punitive damages recovered, with

(d) Cytogen's Right to Bring Action. If Savient fails to bring an
---------------------------------
infringement action under the Licensed Patents or the Joint Patents within a
period of [**] after delivery of the notice set forth in Section 11.1(a), then
Cytogen shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring and control an
action, with respect to such Third Party activity, by counsel of its own choice.
Savient shall pay or reimburse [**] of Cytogen's ongoing litigation expenses
associated with such action. Any damages or monetary awards recovered shall
first be applied to reimburse Savient an amount equal to its reasonable costs
and expenses in connection with such litigation, and then Savient and Cytogen
shall share that portion of any remaining damages or monetary award, with
Cytogen receiving [**] and Savient receiving [**]. In addition, the net proceeds
of any settlement or award received by Cytogen shall be included in Net Sales
for purposes of determining royalty payments and sales milestone payments for
the period Cytogen received such proceeds; specifically, any amounts received as
damages or in settlement of patent litigation shall be included in Net Sales
during the quarter in which such amounts are received by Cytogen.
(e) Right to Counsel. In any event, the party not bringing an
-----------------
infringement action shall have the right to participate in such action and to be
represented by counsel of its own choice. Except as otherwise set forth herein,
the party not bringing such an infringement action agrees to be joined as a
party to the suit, at the request and expense of the party bringing such action,
and to provide reasonable assistance in any such action, at the requesting
party's expense.
11.2 Defense of Third Party Claims.
-----------------------------
(a) Notice. If a patent infringement claim is brought by a Third
------
Party against Savient or Cytogen that any activity conducted pursuant to this
Agreement or the use, manufacture, sale, offer for sale, or importation of the
Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory infringes the intellectual
property rights of such Third Party, such party will give prompt written notice
to the other party of such claim.
(b) Indemnification; Reimbursement. If such claim is based solely on
------------------------------
the manufacture, sale, offer for sale, or importation of the Licensed Product,
then Savient shall defend and hold harmless Cytogen against any such claim and
any resulting suit at its expense and shall indemnify Cytogen against any
resulting judgments and settlements. In such case, Savient shall have full
control the defense of the lawsuit, including the selection of patent litigation
counsel, provided that Savient shall not settle any claim or suit in a manner
that would negatively affect Cytogen without obtaining Cytogen's prior written
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. It
shall be deemed reasonable for Cytogen to withhold consent if any proposed
settlement does not grant Cytogen and its Affiliates a full and unconditional
release of all claims.
-20-
(c) Cytogen's Defense of Certain Actions. Cytogen shall defend at its
------------------------------------
own cost any infringement suit that may be brought against Savient or Cytogen
based solely on Cytogen's method of marketing, promoting, detailing,
distributing or selling the Licensed Product, and shall indemnify and hold
Savient harmless against any such patent or other infringement suits, and any
claims, losses, damages, liabilities, expenses, including reasonable attorneys'
fees and cost, that may be incurred by Savient therein or in settlement thereof.
Cytogen shall have full control the defense of the lawsuit, including the
selection of patent litigation counsel, provided that Cytogen shall not settle
any claim or suit in a manner that would negatively affect Savient without
obtaining Savient's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned, or delayed. It shall be deemed reasonable for Savient to
withhold consent if any proposed settlement does not grant Savient and its
Affiliates a full and unconditional release of all claims.
11.3 Right to Counsel. Each party to this Agreement shall always have the
----------------
right to be represented by counsel of its own selection and its own expense in
any suit or other action instituted by the other for infringement, under the

upon written notice to the other party (with such termination effective upon
receipt of such written notice) if:

all rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to any section of this
Agreement are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section
365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, licenses of "intellectual property" as
defined thereunder. The parties shall retain and may fully exercise all of their
respective rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code; provided, however,
that should Savient become a party to a bankruptcy proceeding and such
proceeding is not dismissed within [**] then, to the extent permitted by law,
this Agreement and the licenses granted by Savient hereunder shall be adopted by
any bankruptcy trustee or relevant third party charged with the disposition of
same, and shall not be rejected by same, it being the parties' intent that, in
such event, Cytogen and its Affiliates and sublicensees shall be entitled to
retain the rights granted to them hereunder by Savient.
12.4 Termination Based on Sales. If the total TRx (tamoxifen
--------------------------------
prescriptions) for [**] is less than [**], then either party shall have the
right, upon written notice to the other party, to demand a meeting with the
other party to discuss the impact of the decline in tamoxifen prescriptions on
this Agreement. In such event and after receipt of such written notice, the
parties shall negotiate in good faith for a period of [**] in order to agree on
the impact on this Agreement and to agree on an amendment, if appropriate, to
the terms of this Agreement to account for such impact. If the parties are
unable to reach an agreement after [**] of negotiation, then either party may
terminate this Agreement upon [**] written notice to the other party.
12.5 Termination by Savient. Savient shall have the right (but not the
------------------------
obligation), upon [**] written notice to either (i) terminate this Agreement in
its entirety, or at Savient's option, (ii) convert Cytogen's exclusive license
to a non-exclusive license if Cytogen ceases to market the Licensed Product in
the Territory (other than for safety reasons) for a period of six months or
more, except where Cytogen's inability to market the Product in the Territory is
caused by Savient's or Rosemont's actions or failure to meet their obligations
under this Agreement or under the Supply Agreement respectively.
12.6 Termination by Cytogen. Cytogen may terminate this Agreement in its
-----------------------
entirety, (a) upon [**] written notice, if the Licensed Product is withdrawn
from the market or recalled in
-22-
the Territory for safety reasons, and has been off the market for at least six
(6) months, and the parties agree that there is no reasonable prospect for the
reintroduction of the Licensed Product.
12.7 Mutual Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by a
------------------
written agreement signed by both Parties.
12.8 Termination for Force Majeure Event. Notwithstanding anything to the

contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event a force majeure event shall
have occurred and be continuing for [**], the party not suffering such force
majeure event shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement effective

12.9 Consequences of Termination.
---------------------------
(a) Upon termination of this Agreement, any and all affected rights
and licenses granted by Savient to Cytogen shall terminate on the effective date
of termination, except as otherwise set forth herein. For avoidance of doubt,
any licenses granted by Cytogen to Savient shall continue and shall survive
termination of this Agreement.
(b) Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement due to reasons
other than a material breach by Cytogen, Cytogen may continue using the licenses
granted hereunder to market and sell all Licensed Product which are fully
manufactured and in Cytogen's (including its Affiliates') and/or its
sublicensees' inventory at the date of such expiry or termination for a period
of time not to exceed [**] (the "TAIL PERIOD") (provided that such sales shall
be subject to the royalties and milestone payment obligations under Article VI
of this Agreement, as well as all payment obligations under the Supply
Agreement).
(c) Upon termination of this Agreement, each party shall return or
destroy all copies of the other party's Confidential Information, and certify to
the other party that all copies of the other party's Confidential Information
have been returned or destroyed.
(d) Upon termination of this Agreement due to a material breach by
Cytogen, at Savient's sole discretion, Savient may offer to purchase all or part
of Cytogen's remaining inventory of Licensed Product at Cytogen's cost;
provided, however, that if Savient does not purchase Cytogen's inventory, then
Savient shall grant Cytogen a license to continue selling the Licensed Product
for a period of time not to exceed [**], subject to Savient's receipt of
royalties and milestone payments for such sales in accordance with Article VI of
this Agreement, as well as all payment obligations under the Supply Agreement.
(e) Upon expiry or termination of this Agreement for any reason other
than Savient's breach, Cytogen shall assign to Savient, at no cost to Savient,
all rights and title to: (i) the Cytogen Trade Dress; (ii) the Prescriber Data;
and (iii) all know-how, data and information related to the marketing, Promotion
or Detailing of the Licensed Product. If the Agreement is terminated because of
Savient's breach, then Savient shall pay Cytogen fair and reasonable
compensation to be negotiated in good faith by the parties (but not to exceed
Cytogen's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in transferring such data
and information) to compensate Cytogen for its transfer to Savient of the
above-described rights, data and information.
-23-
12.10 Non-Exclusive Remedy for Breach. In the event of breach, the
----------------------------------
Non-Breaching Party may terminate this Agreement, as specified in Section 12.2,
but may also seek damages or other remedies to which the Non-Breaching Party may
be entitled. The provisions of Section 12.2 are not intended to be exclusive and
are without prejudice to the rights of the parties to enforce any other rights,
and seek any other remedies, which they may have under this Agreement or
otherwise..
12.11 Survival. Unless expressly provided to the contrary, the provisions
--------
of Sections 2.2, 4.2, 4.7, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 11.2, 12.8 and 12.10, and
Articles VI, VIII, X, XIII, XIV and XV shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and shall expire on their own terms, or if no expiration is expressly
indicated therein, shall continue indefinitely.
XIII. CONFIDENTIALITY, DISCLOSURE AND PUBLICATIONS
--------------------------------------------
13.1 Treatment of Confidential Information. Except as provided below, the
-------------------------------------
parties agree that during the Term, and for a period of [**] thereafter, each
party (the "RECEIVING PARTY") shall (i) maintain in confidence Confidential
Information of the other party (the "DISCLOSING PARTY") to the same extent and
with the same degree of care as the Receiving Party maintains its own
proprietary information of similar kind and value (but at a minimum each party
shall use commercially reasonable efforts), (ii) not disclose such Confidential
Information to any Third Party without prior written consent of the Disclosing
Party, except for disclosures made in confidence to any Third Party, and (iii)
not use such Confidential Information for any purpose except those permitted by
this Agreement. Each party shall neither disclose to the other party nor induce
the other party to use any secret or Confidential Information belonging to a
Third Party.
13.2 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party shall
----------
have no such confidentiality obligations with respect to any portion of the
Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party that:
(a) at the time of disclosure by the Disclosing Party to the
Receiving Party, was generally available to the public, or after such
disclosure, becomes generally available to the public through no fault
attributable to the Receiving Party or its Affiliates; or
(b) was known to the Receiving Party or its Affiliate, without
obligation to keep it confidential, prior to when it was received from the
Disclosing Party; or
(c) is subsequently disclosed to the Receiving Party or its
Affiliate, without obligation to keep it confidential, by a Third Party lawfully
in possession thereof and having the right to so disclose; or
(d) is demonstrated by the Receiving Party by competent written
proof, has been independently developed by the Receiving Party or its Affiliate
who do not have access to or knowledge of such Confidential Information; or
(e) is disclosed pursuant to a court order, law, or regulation,
provided that the Receiving Party provides the other party prior written notice
of the required disclosure and takes reasonable steps to limit such disclosure
to the minimum required by such court order, law, or
-24-
regulation and to obtain, or cooperate with the other party in obtaining, a
protective order or other similar order requiring that such Confidential
Information be used only for the purposes required by such court order, law, or
regulation.
13.3 Authorized Disclosures. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the
-----------------------
Receiving Party from disclosing Confidential Information of the Disclosing
Party, as well as the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to:
(a) the Receiving Party's Affiliates, officers, employees, agents,
consultants, sublicensees, advisors (other than professional advisors), clinical
institution and investigators, and contract manufacturers and suppliers, if any,
but only on a need-to-know basis for purposes provided for in this Agreement,
provided such disclosure occurs pursuant to a confidentiality agreement
containing provisions at least as protective as those of this Article XIII;
(b) the Receiving Party's board of directors and professional
advisors (such as attorneys and accountants) bound by a duty of confidentiality;
or
(c) potential collaborators, acquirers or merger candidates, provided
such disclosure occurs pursuant to a confidentiality agreement containing
provisions at least as protective as those of this Article XIII.
13.4 Publicity. All publicity, press releases, and other public
---------
announcements relating to this Agreement or the performance hereunder other than
publications described in Section 13.5 below shall be reviewed in advance by,
and subject to the approval of, both parties (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); provided, however, that any
disclosure which a party is required by law or any listing or securities trading
agreement concerning its publicly traded securities, based upon advice of such
party's counsel, may be made without the prior consent of the other party,
although the other party shall be given prompt notice (but in no event later
than the time the actual disclosure is made) of any such legally required
disclosure and to the extent practicable, the disclosing party shall provide the
other party an opportunity to comment on the proposed disclosure. .
13.5 Publications.
------------
(a) Each party agrees that it shall not publish or present to the
public the results of non-clinical scientific studies or clinical trials related
to the Licensed Product in the Field without the opportunity for prior review by
the other party.
(b) If a party (the "PUBLISHING PARTY") wishes to publish or to
present to the public such results, then it shall provide the other Party (the
"NON-PUBLISHING PARTY") the opportunity to review the Publishing Party's
proposed abstracts, manuscripts or presentations (including public oral
presentations) that relate to any Licensed Product at least [**] prior to its
intended submission for publication or presentation. The Non-Publishing Party
shall review the abstract, manuscript or presentation (the "PUBLICATION") to
determine whether the Publication contains subject matter for which patent
protection should be sought, or whether the manuscript contains Confidential
Information belonging to the Non-Publishing Party. If the Non-Publishing Party
consents publishing or presenting the Publication or fails to object to the
Publication within
-25-
[**] after receipt of the Publication, then the Disclosing Party shall be free
to submit, publish or otherwise disclose such Publication.
(c) If the Non-Publishing Party believe the Publication discloses
Confidential Information or a patentable invention belonging to the
Non-Publishing Party, then prior to the expiration of the [**] period from the
date of receipt of such Publication by the Non-Publishing Party, the
Non-Publishing Party shall notify the Publishing Party in writing of its
determination that such Publication contains Confidential Information or subject
matter for which patent protection should be sought. On receipt of such written
notice, the Publishing Party shall either: (i) redact any Confidential
Information identified by the Non-Publishing Party (if the Non-Publishing
Party's objection is that the Publication contains Confidential Information
belonging to the Non-Publishing Party), or (ii) delay public disclosure or
submission of the Publication for an additional period of sixty (60) days to
permit preparation and filing of a patent application on the disclosed subject
matter (if the Non-Publishing Party has identified potentially patentable
subject matter). For clarity, a party may publicly disclose without regard to
the preceding requirements of this Section 13.5 any information that was
previously disclosed in a publication pursuant to this Section 13.5.
XIV. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
------------------
14.1 Arbitration. Except as expressly provided herein, any claim, dispute
-----------

------
parties understand that they are waiving certain rights and protections which
may otherwise be available if a dispute between the parties were determined by
litigation in court, including, without limitation, the right
-26-
to seek or obtain certain types of damages precluded by this provision, the
right to a jury trial, certain rights of appeal, and a right to invoke formal
rules of procedure and evidence.
14.3 No Limitation on Injunctive Relief. Nothing in this Agreement shall
------------------------------------
be deemed as preventing either party from seeking injunctive relief (or any
other provisional remedy) from any court having jurisdiction over the parties
and the subject matter of the dispute as necessary to protect either party's
name, proprietary information, trade secrets, know-how or any other proprietary
right.
