2. GRANT OF RIGHTS
2.1. Momenta License Grants. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Momenta hereby grants to BCWI during the Term, (a) an exclusive license, without the right to grant sublicenses, under Momenta IP and under Momenta’s rights in the Joint Collaboration IP, to Develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, lease, import and export the Product in the U.S. Territory in the Field, and (b) a non-exclusive license, with no right to grant sublicenses, under the Momenta IP to make, have made, and use the Product in the Non-U.S. Territory, but only for the purposes of sale of the Product in or into the U.S. Territory; provided, however, that Momenta retains the right to practice, and to grant sublicenses, under Momenta IP and under Momenta’s rights in the Joint Collaboration IP in the U.S. Territory in the Field to (i) perform its obligations to the Sandoz Parties under this Agreement, including, without limitation, to conduct the Momenta activities under this Agreement and in the Annual Collaboration Plans and (ii) make and have made the Product in the U.S. Territory solely for the purposes of sales of the Product in the Field (A) in those countries in the Non-U.S. Territory for which Sandoz does not, during the Non-U.S. Option Period, exercise the Non-U.S. Option, or (B) if Sandoz exercises the Non-U.S. Option within the Non-U.S. Option Period, in those countries in the Non-U.S. Territory for which Sandoz and Momenta do not execute a Non-U.S. Territory Agreement either during the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period or pursuant to Section 3.4.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing prohibition on sublicensing, (a) BCWI may sublicense its rights under this Section 2.1 to Sandoz to the extent it deems necessary for Sandoz to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and (b) subject to the provisions of Section 8.3.3, BCWI may sublicense its rights under this Section 2.1 to an Affiliate of BCWI other than Sandoz to the extent as may be permitted under the Annual Collaboration Plans or as otherwise approved in writing by Momenta.
2.2. Sandoz Parties License Grants. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Sandoz Parties hereby grant to Momenta, during the term of this Agreement, a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license, without the right to grant sublicenses (except to the extent as may be permitted under the relevant Annual Collaboration Plan or as otherwise approved in writing by the relevant Sandoz Party) under Sandoz IP and under the Sandoz Parties’ rights in the Joint Collaboration IP, solely to the extent necessary or appropriate to perform Momenta’s obligations to the Sandoz Parties under this Agreement, including, without limitation, to conduct the Momenta activities under this Agreement and in the Annual Collaboration Plans.
2.3. Exclusivity. Subject to Momenta’s retained right in Section 2.1, except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, Momenta agrees that it shall not, and shall ensure that its Affiliates do not, during the Term, grant any license in Momenta IP or Joint Collaboration IP to any Third Party to Develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, lease, import, export or otherwise Commercialize the Product in the Field in the U.S. Territory. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, each Sandoz Party agrees that it shall not, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause its Affiliates not to, during the Term, grant any license to any Third Party to Develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, lease, import, export or otherwise Commercialize the Product in the Field in the U.S. Territory, except to the extent necessary or appropriate to perform the Sandoz Parties’ obligations to Momenta under this Agreement;
provided, however, that if an Affiliate of any Sandoz Party grants any such license to any Third Party, it shall be considered a breach of this Agreement by the Sandoz Parties. Momenta shall, and shall ensure that its Affiliates, exclusively develop and Commercialize the Product with the Sandoz Parties during the Term in the U.S. Territory. Each Sandoz Party shall, and shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that its Affiliates, exclusively develop and Commercialize the Product with Momenta during the Term in the U.S. Territory; provided, however, that if an Affiliate of any Sandoz Party develops or commercializes the Product without Momenta during the Term in the U.S. Territory, it shall be considered a breach of this Agreement by the Sandoz Parties.
2.4. Retained Rights. Any rights of Momenta not expressly granted to Sandoz or BCWI under the provisions of this Agreement shall be retained by Momenta and any rights of Sandoz or BCWI not expressly granted to Momenta under the provisions of this Agreement shall be retained by Sandoz or BCWI, respectively.
2.5. Third Party Licensor Rights. The rights granted in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 are granted to the extent permitted or qualified by the nature of the licenses granted by the relevant Third Party licensors, if any, of Momenta IP or Sandoz IP, as the case may be. The Party receiving such license shall comply with all restrictions and obligations imposed by such Third Party licensors; provided, however, that, if Momenta or a Sandoz Party, as the case may be, enters into a license with a Third Party licensor for any intellectual property that may be considered Momenta IP or Sandoz IP, respectively, Momenta or such Sandoz Party shall notify the Sandoz Parties or Momenta, respectively, of the restrictions and obligations imposed by such Third Party licensor, and, if the Sandoz Parties or Momenta, respectively, do not wish to comply with such restrictions and obligations, such licensed intellectual property shall not be considered Momenta IP or Sandoz IP, respectively, hereunder. Sandoz acknowledges receipt of a copy of the MIT Agreement from Momenta. Momenta represents that the copy of the MIT Agreement delivered to Sandoz in accordance with the foregoing represents the MIT Agreement as in effect as of the Effective Date.
3. ADDITIONAL RIGHTS
3.1. Fragmin Opportunity; Right of First Negotiation. During the Term, prior to entering into any detailed negotiations regarding key terms and/or entering into any contract, agreement, term sheet, understanding or arrangement (verbal or written) with a Commercial Third Party (other than Third Party contractors such as contract research organizations, contract manufacturers, contract employees, consultants and the like which merely conduct activities on behalf of Momenta and subject to Momenta’s supervision and control (“Controlled Contractors”)) with respect to a Fragmin Opportunity in the U.S. Territory or the Non-U.S. Territory, Momenta shall provide written notice to the Sandoz Parties of its bona fide present intent to engage in such activities at such time (the “Fragmin Notice”), which Fragmin Notice shall include information in reasonable detail sufficient to enable the Sandoz Parties to make an informed decision with respect to such Fragmin Opportunity; provided, however, that this Section 3.1 shall not prevent Momenta from participating in general discussions or negotiations with Third Parties with respect to a Fragmin Opportunity in the U.S. Territory or the Non-U.S. Territory. If either (but not both) of the Sandoz Parties notifies Momenta in writing within thirty
(30) days of receipt of the Fragmin Notice (the “Fragmin Response Period”, such notice, the “Fragmin Response”) that it has a bona fide interest in discussing a collaboration with Momenta with respect to such Fragmin Opportunity, Momenta and such Sandoz Party shall enter into good faith negotiations on an exclusive basis, on such terms as may be mutually agreeable. If (a) neither Sandoz Party indicates during the Fragmin Response Period that it is interested in discussing such Fragmin Opportunity, (b) the Sandoz Parties indicate in writing during the Fragmin Response Period that they have no interest in such Fragmin Opportunity, or (c) one of the Sandoz Parties indicates such an interest during the Fragmin Response Period but Momenta and such Sandoz Party are unable, after good faith negotiations, to reach mutual agreement and execute a definitive agreement with respect to a collaboration with respect to such Fragmin Opportunity within [**] from the date of the Fragmin Response (or such extended period as may be approved in writing by Momenta and such Sandoz Party), Momenta shall be free for a period of [**] thereafter to undertake detailed negotiations regarding key terms and enter into a transaction (including execution of a definitive agreement) relating to such Fragmin Opportunity with a Commercial Third Party(ies), which, with respect only to clause (c) above, shall be on terms not less favorable, taken as a whole, to Momenta than those last offered to the applicable Sandoz Party. Momenta and the Sandoz Parties recognize that, in evaluating the favorability to Momenta of the terms of such Third Party transaction relating to such Fragmin Opportunity, numerous factors may be taken into account and given appropriate weight, including, without limitation, the amount of up-front payments, the amount and timing of subsequent license or research payments, the royalty rate(s) or profit sharing terms, the definition of territory, marketing and promotion rights, the purchase and pricing of equity, if applicable, and the identity, experience and market position of such Third Party(ies) in the relevant markets. If, after the expiration of such [**] period, Momenta has not entered into a transaction with any Third Party with respect to such Fragmin Opportunity, then Momenta and the Sandoz Parties shall again follow the procedures described in this Section 3.1 with respect to such Fragmin Opportunity. Momenta shall not be obligated to reveal to the Sandoz Parties the identity of any Third Party involved in any such transaction.
3.2. M118 Opportunity; Right of First Negotiation. During the Term, prior to entering into any detailed negotiations regarding key terms and/or entering into any contract, agreement, term sheet, understanding or arrangement (verbal or written) with a Commercial Third Party (other than Controlled Contractors) with respect to an M118 Opportunity in the U.S. Territory or the Non-U.S. Territory, Momenta shall provide written notice to the Sandoz Parties of its bona fide present intent to engage in such activities at such time (the “M118 Notice”), which M118 Notice shall include information in reasonable detail sufficient to enable the Sandoz Parties to make an informed decision with respect to such M118 Opportunity; provided, however, that this Section 3.2 shall not prevent Momenta from participating in general discussions or negotiations with Third Parties with respect to an M118 Opportunity in the U.S. Territory or the Non-U.S. Territory. If either (but not both) of the Sandoz Parties notifies Momenta in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of the M118 Notice (the “M118 Response Period”, such notice, the “M118 Response”) that it has a bona fide interest in discussing a collaboration with Momenta with respect to such M118 Opportunity, Momenta and such Sandoz Party shall enter into good faith negotiations on an exclusive basis, on such terms as may be mutually agreeable. If (a) neither Sandoz Party indicates during the M118 Response Period that it is interested in discussing such M118 Opportunity, (b) the Sandoz Parties indicate in writing during the M118 Response Period
that they have no interest in such M118 Opportunity, or (c) one of the Sandoz Parties indicates such an interest during the M118 Response Period but Momenta and such Sandoz Party are unable, after good faith negotiations, to reach mutual agreement and execute a definitive agreement with respect to a collaboration with respect to such M118 Opportunity within [**] from the date of the M118 Response (or such extended period as may be approved in writing by Momenta and such Sandoz Party), Momenta shall be free for a period of [**] thereafter to undertake detailed negotiations regarding key terms and enter into a transaction (including execution of a definitive agreement) relating to such M118 Opportunity with a Commercial Third Party(ies), which, with respect only to clause (c) above, shall be on terms not less favorable, taken as a whole, to Momenta than those last offered to the applicable Sandoz Party. Momenta and the Sandoz Parties recognize that, in evaluating the favorability to Momenta of the terms of such Third Party transaction relating to such M118 Opportunity, numerous factors may be taken into account and given appropriate weight, including, without limitation, the amount of up-front payments, the amount and timing of subsequent license or research payments, the royalty rate(s) or profit sharing terms, the definition of territory, marketing and promotion rights, the purchase and pricing of equity, if applicable, and the identity, experience and market position of such Third Party(ies) in the relevant markets. If, after the expiration of such [**] period, Momenta has not entered into a transaction with any Third Party with respect to such M118 Opportunity, then Momenta and the Sandoz Parties shall again follow the procedures described in this Section 3.2 with respect to such M118 Opportunity. Momenta shall not be obligated to reveal to the Sandoz Parties the identity of any Third Party involved in any such transaction.
3.3. Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunities.
3.3.1 U.S. Territory. If, during the Term, Momenta intends to begin detailed negotiations regarding key terms and/or enter into any contract, agreement, term sheet, understanding or arrangement (verbal or written) with a Commercial Third Party (other than Controlled Contractors) with respect to a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the U.S. Territory, Momenta shall provide written notice of such bona fide present intent to the Sandoz Parties (the “Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Notice”), which Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Notice shall include information in reasonable detail sufficient to enable the Sandoz Parties to make an informed decision with respect to such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity; provided, however, that this Section 3.3 shall not prevent Momenta from participating in general discussions or negotiations with Third Parties with respect to a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the U.S. Territory. If either (but not both) of the Sandoz Parties notifies Momenta in writing within [**] of receipt of the Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Notice (the “Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Response Period”, such notice, the “Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Response”) that it has a bona fide interest in discussing a collaboration with Momenta with respect to such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity, Momenta and such Sandoz Party shall enter into good faith negotiations on an exclusive basis, on such terms as may be mutually agreeable. If (a) neither Sandoz Party indicates during the Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Response Period that it is interested in discussing such
Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity, (b) the Sandoz Parties indicate in writing during the Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Response Period that they have no interest in such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity, or (c) one of the Sandoz Parties indicates such an interest during the Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Response Period but Momenta and such Sandoz Party are unable to, after good faith negotiations, reach mutual agreement and execute a definitive agreement with respect to a collaboration with respect to such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity within [**] from the date of the Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Response (or such extended period as may be approved in writing by Momenta and such Sandoz Party), Momenta shall be free for a period of [**] thereafter, to undertake detailed negotiations regarding key terms and/or enter into a transaction (including execution of a definitive agreement) relating to such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity with a Commercial Third Party(ies), which, with respect only to clause (c) above, shall be on terms not less favorable, taken as a whole, to Momenta than those last offered to the applicable Sandoz Party. Momenta and the Sandoz Parties recognize that, in evaluating the favorability to Momenta of the terms of such Third Party transaction relating to such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity, numerous factors may be taken into account and given appropriate weight, including, without limitation, the amount of up-front payments, the amount and timing of subsequent license or research payments, the royalty rate(s) or profit sharing terms, the definition of territory, marketing and promotion rights, the purchase and pricing of equity, if applicable, and the identity, experience and market position of such Third Party(ies) in the relevant markets. If, after the expiration of such [**] period, Momenta has not entered into a transaction with any Third Party with respect to such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity, then Momenta and the Sandoz Parties shall again follow the procedures described in this Section 3.3.1 with respect to such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity. Momenta shall not be obligated to reveal to the Sandoz Parties the identity of any Third Party involved in any such transaction.
3.3.2 Non-U.S. Territory.
a. During the Non-U.S. Option Period, Momenta shall provide a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Notice under Section 3.3.1 to the Sandoz Parties if Momenta has a bona fide present intent to begin detailed negotiations regarding key terms or enter into any contract, agreement, term sheet, understanding or arrangement (verbal or written) with a Commercial Third Party at such time with respect to a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the Non-U.S. Territory, and the provisions of Section 3.3.1 shall apply mutatis mutandis with respect to the Non-U.S. Territory.
b. During the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period, if any, and during the term of the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement, Momenta shall provide a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Notice under
Section 3.3.1 to the Sandoz Parties if Momenta has a bona fide present intent to begin detailed negotiations regarding key terms or enter into any contract, agreement, term sheet, understanding or arrangement (verbal or written) with a Commercial Third Party at such time with respect to a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the portion of the Non-U.S. Territory for which a Sandoz Party has exercised the Non-U.S. Option or executed the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement, as applicable, and the provisions of Section 3.3.1 shall apply with respect to such countries.
c. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3.3.2(a) and 3.3.2(b), (i) if neither Sandoz Party indicates during the Non-U.S. Option Period that it is interested in exercising the Non-U.S. Option or the Sandoz Parties indicate in writing during the Non-U.S. Option Period that they have no interest in exercising the Non-U.S. Option, Momenta shall have no further obligations to the Sandoz Parties or their Affiliates with respect to the Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the Non-U.S. Territory; (ii) Momenta shall not be obligated to enter into definitive agreements with a Sandoz Party with respect to a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the Non-U.S. Territory unless and until Momenta and a Sandoz Party have entered into the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement; provided, however, that the negotiation period for any such Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the Non-U.S. Territory shall be tolled without penalty during the Non-U.S. Option Period and the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period; (iii) if a Sandoz Party exercises the Non-U.S. Option but Momenta and such Sandoz Party do not enter into the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement either prior to the expiration of the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period or pursuant to Section 3.4.5, Momenta shall have no further obligations to the Sandoz Parties or their Affiliates with respect to the Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the Non-U.S. Territory; (iv) if a Sandoz Party exercises the Non-U.S. Option with respect to only a portion of the Non-U.S. Territory, Momenta shall have no further obligations to the Sandoz Parties or their Affiliates with respect to a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity with respect to those countries in the Non-U.S. Territory for which a Sandoz Party did not exercise the Non-U.S. Option; and (v) this Section 3.3 shall not prevent Momenta from participating in general discussions or negotiations with Third Parties with respect to a Non-Injectable or Improved Enoxaparin Opportunity in the Non-U.S. Territory.
3.4. Non-U.S. Territory Option.
3.4.1 Option. Momenta hereby grants to either (but not both) of the Sandoz Parties the exclusive option to commence negotiations to obtain an exclusive license to Develop and Commercialize the Product in all or part of the Non-U.S. Territory on terms to be determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.4 (the “Non-U.S. Option”). A Sandoz Party shall notify Momenta in
writing as to its exercise of the Non-U.S. Option within four (4) months after the Effective Date (the “Non-U.S. Option Period”). During the Non-U.S. Option Period, no Party shall, and each Party shall ensure that its Affiliates do not, develop or commercialize the Product with a Third Party in the Non-U.S. Territory. During the Initial Non-U.S. Negotiation Period, if any, no Party shall, and each Party shall ensure that its Affiliates do not, develop or commercialize the Product with a Third Party in the portion of the Non-U.S. Territory for which a Sandoz Party has exercised the Non-U.S. Option.
3.4.2 Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period. Upon exercise by a Sandoz Party of the Non-U.S. Option, Momenta and such Sandoz Party shall negotiate in good faith a definitive agreement containing terms and conditions for the exclusive license in the portion of the Non-U.S. Territory for which such Sandoz Party has exercised the Non-U.S. Option in Section 3.4.1 (the “Non-U.S. Territory Agreement”). Unless extended by mutual agreement of Momenta and such Sandoz Party, the negotiations shall cease after the first anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period”) if the Parties have not entered into the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement by such time.
3.4.3 Agreed Terms. Momenta and the Sandoz Parties agree that the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement will (a) be generally consistent with the terms of this Agreement (provided, however, that the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement will, unless otherwise agreed by Momenta and the applicable Sandoz Party, permit sublicensing of marketing rights, and, if sublicensing of marketing rights by a Sandoz Party is permitted, the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement shall include such Sandoz Party’s payment to Momenta of a mutually agreed percentage of any payment received by the Sandoz Party from a sublicense of the Product; and provided further that the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement shall include provisions specific to the relevant countries and/or to inter-jurisdictional agreements, which may include, without limitation, provisions with respect to tax withholding and addressing legal restrictions on inter-jurisdictional payments, as applicable), (b) take into consideration the economics of the international markets for enoxaparin, and (c) not include upfront payments or Development-related milestone payments.
3.4.4 Non-Exercise of Option. If the Sandoz Parties elect not to exercise the Non-U.S. Option pursuant to Section 3.4.1 within the Non-U.S. Option Period, or elect to exercise the Non-U.S. Option with respect to only a portion of the Non-U.S. Territory, on a country-by-country basis, Momenta shall be free to begin discussions or negotiations and/or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding or arrangement with Third Parties relating to the Development and/or Commercialization of the Product in the Non-U.S. Territory or, if applicable, the portion of the Non-U.S. Territory as to which the Sandoz Parties did not exercise the Non-U.S. Option.
3.4.5 Failure to Reach Agreement; Right of First Refusal. If a Sandoz Party exercises the Non-U.S. Option but Momenta and such Sandoz Party do not enter into the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement prior to the expiration of the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period, Momenta shall be free to begin discussions or negotiations with Third Parties relating to the Development and/or Commercialization of the Product in the portion of the Non-U.S. Territory for which a Sandoz Party has exercised the Non-U.S. Option; provided that Momenta will not enter into any contract, agreement, term sheet, understanding or arrangement with a Commercial Third Party relating to the Development and/or Commercialization of the Product in the portion of the Non-U.S. Territory for which such Sandoz Party has exercised the Non-U.S. Option without first complying with the following procedures: At such time as Momenta has reached agreement on key terms with a Third Party relating to the Development and/or Commercialization of the Product in the portion of the Non-U.S. Territory for which a Sandoz Party has exercised the Non-U.S. Option (a “Third Party Term Sheet”), Momenta shall provide a copy of such Third Party Term Sheet (which may be redacted to delete the name of the Third Party) to the applicable Sandoz Party (a “Third Party Term Sheet Notice”). Within [**] after receipt of a Third Party Term Sheet Notice, such Sandoz Party shall indicate in writing to Momenta whether it wishes to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements reflecting the terms set forth in the Third Party Term Sheet. If the Sandoz Party indicates within such [**] period that it wishes to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements, Momenta and such Sandoz Party shall in good faith negotiate definitive agreements reflecting the terms set forth in the Third Party Term Sheet. If, despite such good faith negotiations, Momenta and the Sandoz Party have not entered into such definitive agreements within [**] after such Sandoz Party’s receipt of the Third Party Term Sheet Notice (as such period may be extended by mutual agreement of the Parties), then Momenta shall be free to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements reflecting the terms set forth in the Third Party Term Sheet with the applicable Third Party. Momenta shall not be obligated to reveal to the Sandoz Parties the identity of any Third Party involved in any such transaction.
3.4.6 License to Momenta. Momenta shall have the right to use any and all preclinical, clinical, technical and other relevant data, records, reports, information, materials and technology in its possession or in the possession of the Sandoz Parties (to the extent the Sandoz Parties have the right to transfer the foregoing to Momenta) (including, without limitation, manufacturing technology) that arises from and is used in the Collaborative Program (collectively, “Program Output”) in its Development and Commercialization of the Product for any country in the Non-U.S. Territory with respect to which a Sandoz Party has not exercised the Non-U.S. Option prior to the expiration of the Non-U.S. Option Period and for any country in the Non-U.S. Territory with respect to which Momenta and a Sandoz Party have not executed the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement either prior to the expiration of the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period or pursuant to Section 3.4.5. In the event that any item of
Program Output constitutes Sandoz IP, the Sandoz Parties automatically grant to Momenta, upon the expiration of the Non-U.S. Option Period and/or the expiration of the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period, as applicable, a non-exclusive, sublicenseable, royalty-free license under such Sandoz IP to (a) Develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, lease, import and export the Product in the Field in any country in the Non-U.S. Territory with respect to which a Sandoz Party has not exercised the Non-U.S. Option prior to the expiration of the Non-U.S. Option Period and in any country in the Non-U.S. Territory with respect to which Momenta and a Sandoz Party have not executed the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement either prior to the expiration of the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period or pursuant to Section 3.4.5, and (b) make and have made the Product anywhere in the world for the purpose of sale of the Product in the Field into any country in the Non-U.S. Territory with respect to which a Sandoz Party has not exercised the Non-U.S. Option prior to the expiration of the Non-U.S. Option Period and into any country in the Non-U.S. Territory with respect to which Momenta and a Sandoz Party have not executed the Non-U.S. Territory Agreement either prior to the expiration of the Initial Non-U.S. Territory Negotiation Period or pursuant to Section 3.4.5. Program Output shall expressly exclude, and Momenta shall have no right to use or share with any Third Party, any financial information (other than total per-unit costs of the Product with no breakdown of the components thereof), that was created, generated or compiled pursuant to the Collaborative Program and otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 3.4.6 shall be interpreted or construed to in any way license, authorize or otherwise permit Momenta or any Third Party to use any Program Output or practice any Sandoz IP in any manner that is inconsistent with the Sandoz Parties’ rights under this Agreement.
3.5. Equity Investment. Momenta hereby grants to Sandoz a non-exclusive option to invest between U.S.$5,000,000 and U.S.$10,000,000 in a class of preferred stock of Momenta to be substantially equivalent to Momenta’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, U.S.$0.01 par value per share, at a mutually agreed share price and subject to such obligations and restrictions, and entitled to such rights and preferences, as those currently imposed and bestowed on the holders of Momenta’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The exercise of such option shall be subject to the execution of definitive agreements containing the terms and conditions customary in such agreements and the approval thereof by the respective boards of directors of Momenta and Sandoz, and, to the extent applicable, by certain stockholders of Momenta. The option granted by Momenta pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall expire unless such definitive agreements are executed within ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, as such date may be extended by mutual consent of Momenta and Sandoz. In the event of the exercise by Sandoz of its option pursuant to this Section 3.5, Momenta and Sandoz agree to negotiate such definitive agreements in good faith and to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain all necessary approvals and execute such definitive agreements prior to the expiration of such ninety-day period.

4.11.3 Interest. Interest shall be payable on the aggregate amount of any payments that are not paid on or before the date such payments are due under this Agreement at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) two percentage points above the prime rate of interest, as reported by The Wall Street Journal for the applicable period, or (b) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, in each case calculated on the number of days such payments are paid after the date they are due.
4.11.4 Record Keeping. The Sandoz Parties and Momenta shall keep, and shall require their Affiliates, distributors, licensees and sublicensees to keep, accurate and complete accounting records of the Products sold under this Agreement (“Product Records”) appropriate to determine the amount of Profit Interest or royalties due hereunder and to support the reports made pursuant to Section 4.11.1.

In the event an examining auditor specified in Sections 4.11.5 or 4.11.6 concludes that an underpayment or overpayment was made, the auditor will specify such in a written report along with the information on which such conclusion is based. This report will be shared promptly with the audited Party. The amount of any such underpayment or the reimbursement of any such overpayment shall be due and payable by the audited Party within forty-five (45) days of the date of such report, provided that if a Party disputes the conclusion of the auditor, the Parties will resolve the dispute according to Article 13. If the underpayment by the audited Party or the overpayment by the auditing Party differs by greater than five percent (5%) from the amount that was otherwise due, the audited Party shall pay all of the costs of such review, together with interest calculated on the amount of such underpayment or overpayment in the manner provided in Section 4.11.3.
4.11.8 Relationship Between the Sandoz Parties. As between Sandoz and BCWI, (a) BCWI shall bear responsibility for all Development Costs to the extent such Development Costs are part of Capped Costs and for FTE costs for the first fifteen (15) FTEs in accordance with Section 4.2; (b) Sandoz shall bear responsibility for all payments under Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7 and 4.8, unless Sandoz otherwise makes arrangements with BCWI for any such payments; and (c) the Sandoz Parties shall bear responsibility for all payments under Section 4.10.

8.5. Claimed Infringement. In the event that a Party becomes aware that the manufacture, use, sale, offer to sell or importation of the Product infringes, or is likely to or is alleged to infringe, the Patent Rights or Know-How of any Third Party, such Party shall promptly notify the other Parties in writing, and, with respect to activities undertaken pursuant to this Agreement, the Parties shall cooperate and shall mutually agree, through the JSC, upon an appropriate course of action and shall act in accordance with such JSC-approved course of action; provided, however, that, to the extent that any action would involve the enforcement of a Party’s Patent Rights or the defense of an Invalidity Claim with respect to a Party’s Patent Rights, the general concepts of Section 8.4 shall apply to the enforcement of such Party’s Patent Rights or the defense of such Invalidity Claim (i.e., the Owning Party shall have the initial right, and the Non-Owning Party shall have a step-in right in the case of claims in the Field in the U.S. Territory, to enforce or defend).

8.6. Patent Invalidity Claim. Subject to any contractual obligations to, or restrictions imposed by, a Party’s Third Party licensors, if a Third Party at any time asserts a claim that any Momenta IP or Sandoz IP (in each case, other than any Product-Specific Patent Rights relevant to the exercise by Sandoz of the licenses granted in Section 2.1) is invalid or otherwise unenforceable (an “Invalidity Claim”), whether as a defense in an infringement action brought by a Party pursuant to Section 8.4 or in an action brought against a Party under Section 8.5, the general concepts of Section 8.4 shall apply to such Invalidity Claim (i.e., the Owning Party shall have the initial right, and the Non-Owning Party shall have a step-in right in the case of claims in the Field in the U.S. Territory, to defend such Invalidity Claim). No Party shall settle or compromise any Invalidity Claim without obtaining the prior written consent of Momenta or BCWI (or Sandoz, if so designated in writing by the Sandoz Parties), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that the consent of a Third Party licensor of Momenta or BCWI (or Sandoz, if so designated in writing by the Sandoz Parties), respectively, may also be required in order to settle or compromise such Invalidity Claim.
8.7. Joint Collaboration IP and Product-Specific Patent Rights. Subject to any contractual obligations to, or restrictions imposed by, the Parties’ Third Party licensors, the JSC shall make all decisions regarding enforcement of the Joint Collaboration IP and of those Product-Specific Patent Rights relevant to the exercise by the Sandoz Parties of the licenses granted in Section 2.1, in the Field, and responses to any assertions by a Third Party that the Joint Collaboration IP or those Product-Specific Patent Rights relevant to the exercise by the Sandoz Parties of the licenses granted in Section 2.1 are invalid or otherwise unenforceable; provided, however, that, in the event of a dispute within the JSC with respect to such decisions, mutually acceptable outside patent counsel not regularly employed by any Party or their Affiliates shall be retained to resolve such dispute. Each Party shall provide to the other Parties copies of any notices it receives from Third Parties regarding any patent nullity actions, any declaratory judgment actions, any alleged infringement or any alleged misappropriation of the Joint Collaboration IP or those Product-Specific Patent Rights relevant to the exercise by the
Sandoz Parties of the licenses granted in Section 2.1. Such notices shall be provided promptly, but in no event after more than fifteen (15) days following receipt thereof.

11.2.1 Momenta, on the one hand, and Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties), on the other hand, may terminate this Agreement for any breach of a material provision by a Sandoz Party or Momenta, respectively, thirty (30) days after written notice containing details of the breach if the breach remains uncured at the end of the notice period.
11.2.2 Notwithstanding Section 11.2.1, in the event that the Sandoz Parties are unable to perform any of their respective obligations under this Agreement as a result of any interruption of the Supply Chain or manufacturing capability for the Product, including as a result of any action taken or threatened by the FDA or other Regulatory Authority (each such event a “Supply Interruption”), and such inability to perform hereunder would otherwise constitute a breach of a material provision of this Agreement, and such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days following receipt by Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties) of written notice from Momenta of such breach, such Supply Interruption shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement provided that Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties) provides the JSC with written notice and evidence, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the JSC, that the alleged breach is as a result of a Supply Interruption within fifteen (15) days following receipt by Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties) from Momenta of notice of such alleged breach (a “Supply Interruption Notice”). Such Supply Interruption Notice shall extend the thirty (30) day cure period set forth in Section 11.2.1 in accordance with the following procedure: (a) Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties) shall furnish to the JSC a written plan (the “Supply Continuation Plan”) within thirty (30) days following the JSC’s receipt of the Supply Interruption Notice setting forth the actions that the Sandoz Parties shall take to cure the Supply Interruption as soon as commercially possible following the occurrence of the Supply Interruption; (b) the Supply Continuation Plan shall be subject to the review and approval of the JSC, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (c)

11.2.3 To the extent permitted under applicable law, Momenta, on the one hand, and Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties), on the other hand, may terminate this Agreement effective immediately with written notice if a Sandoz Party or Momenta, respectively, shall file for bankruptcy, shall be adjudicated bankrupt, shall file a petition under insolvency laws, shall be dissolved or shall have a receiver appointed for substantially all of its property.
11.2.4 With respect to a default or breach of this Agreement, failure of a Party to provide notice to the defaulting or breaching Party provided in this Article 11 shall not constitute a waiver of the right to give such notice with respect to any subsequent default or breach.
11.3. Termination Due to Lack of Commercial Viability. If (a) there is a withdrawal from the market of all Lovenox®-Equivalent Products due to material safety concerns, which withdrawal could significantly impact the commercial viability of the Product, (b) a new product [**] enters the market and the number of units of [**] sold during the immediately following [**] period is less than [**] percent ([**]%) of the number of units sold in the twelve-month period immediately prior to such entry, (c) at least [**] Products (other than [**]) have been on the market in the U.S. Territory for at least [**] each prior to the U.S. Launch, (d) at least [**] Third-Party Competitors have received tentative approval of [**] Products prior to Sandoz’s receipt of tentative approval of the [**] for the Product or (e) the Product fails to generate Profits equal to or greater than [**] percent ([**]%) of corresponding Net Sales for any Post-Launch Year during the Post-[**] Period, the [**] Period or the Aventis [**] Period (each, a “Commercial Viability Trigger”), then, for a period of thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such Commercial Viability Trigger, Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties) shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Momenta. The termination rights specified in this Section 11.3 shall be termed a “Commercial Viability Termination”.
11.4. Sandoz Milestone Termination. If, for any reason other than as a result of a breach by Sandoz or BCWI under this Agreement, (a) the drug product form of the Product is not ready for initiation of Stability Studies on or before December 31, 2004, or (b) during the course of the Parties’ attempt to achieve District Court Legal Clearance, a decision by a District Court , a United States Court of Appeals, or the United States Supreme Court is issued, or an applicable law or regulation is enacted or amended, which materially and substantially diminishes achievement of Final Legal Clearance based on the legal theories and strategies then being pursued by the Parties to achieve District Court Legal Clearance (including, without limitation, a
Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx Decision that the marketing of the Product by Sandoz or its Affiliates would infringe Aventis’ Patent Rights) (a “Legal Strategy Diminishment”) (each of subsections 11.4(a) and 11.4(b) a “Sandoz Milestone Trigger”), then for a period of sixty (60) days after the later of the occurrence of such Sandoz Milestone Trigger or Sandoz’s actual knowledge of such Sandoz Milestone Trigger, Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties) shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Momenta (provided, however, that, (i) if there is a dispute between the Parties as to whether a Legal Strategy Diminishment has occurred, outside patent counsel not regularly employed by any Party or their Affiliates who is mutually acceptable to the Parties shall be retained to resolve such dispute, and (ii) if there is a dispute between the Sandoz Parties, on the one hand, and Momenta, on the other hand, as to whether a Sandoz Milestone Trigger has occurred, the Agreement shall not be terminated pursuant to this Section 11.4 unless and until such dispute is resolved, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in Sandoz’s favor). The termination rights specified in this Section 11.4 shall be termed a “Sandoz Milestone Termination”.
11.5. Excessive Cost Termination. Sandoz (on behalf of the Sandoz Parties) shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in the event of excessive Capped Costs, as follows:
11.5.1 In the event that, prior to the U.S. Launch, the Capped Costs exceed the Cost Cap (the “Initial Excessive Cost Trigger”), Sandoz shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement (the “Initial Excessive Cost Termination”) effective immediately upon written notice thereof to Momenta, which option may be exercised by Sandoz within sixty (60) days after the Parties have, pursuant to Section 4.1, exchanged the written reports and invoices which reflect that the Initial Excessive Cost Trigger was achieved in the prior Quarter (the “Initial Excessive Cost Termination Option Period”). Notwithstanding Section 4.1, in the event of an Initial Excessive Cost Termination, the Sandoz Parties shall not be responsible for any Capped Costs in excess of the Cost Cap, except as provided in Section 11.6.1. If Sandoz does not exercise its right to an Initial Excessive Cost Termination, the Sandoz Parties shall continue to be responsible for Capped Costs in excess of the Cost Cap, subject to the provisions of Section 11.5.2 and Schedule 4.3.
11.5.2 If, prior to the U.S. Launch, (a) the Capped Costs exceed the Cost Cap by more than the then-current Additional Costs Amount and (b) more than twelve (12) months have elapsed since the expiration of the immediately preceding Excessive Cost Termination Option Period (each, an “Additional Excessive Cost Trigger”), Sandoz shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement (each, an “Additional Excessive Cost Termination”) effective immediately upon written notice thereof to Momenta, which option may be exercised by Sandoz within sixty (60) days after the later of (i) the exchange by the Parties, pursuant to Section 4.1, of the written reports and invoices which reflect that such Additional Excessive Cost Trigger was achieved in the prior Quarter (each, an “Additional Excessive Cost Termination Option Period”) or (ii) the end of such twelve-month period. Notwithstanding Section 4.1, in the event of an Additional Excessive Cost Termination, the Sandoz Parties shall not be
responsible for any Capped Costs in excess of the amount that triggered the applicable Additional Excessive Cost Trigger, except as provided in Section 11.6.1. If Sandoz does not exercise its right to an Additional Excessive Cost Termination, (A) the Sandoz Parties shall continue to be responsible for Capped Costs in excess of the sum of the Cost Cap and the then-current Additional Costs Amount, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.5.2 and Schedule 4.3, and (B) the Additional Costs Amount shall be increased by Three Million Dollars (U.S.$3,000,000).

12. INDEMNIFICATION
12.1. Sandoz Indemnification of Momenta. The Sandoz Parties shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Momenta Indemnified Parties from and against all losses, costs, damages, judgments, settlements, interest, fees or expenses (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees, experts’ or consultants’ fees, expenses and costs) (“Liabilities”) awarded to a Third Party against any Momenta Indemnified Party, or that may be incurred or paid by any Momenta Indemnified Party in the defense or compromise of legal or equitable claims asserted by a Third Party, arising out of or resulting from (a) any breach of any obligation by Sandoz or BCWI hereunder, (b) any misrepresentation by Sandoz or BCWI hereunder (including but not limited to any such breach by Sandoz or BCWI of Article 9 — Warranties), (c) any Patent Litigation, (d) any property damage or personal injury (including, without limitation, death) resulting from the development, use, manufacture, sale, offering for sale or importation of the Product by Sandoz, its Affiliates or their Third Party contractors or distributors, or (e) any claims or demands related to the Product that are commenced by [**] any Third Party against any Momenta Indemnified Party based on the activities of Momenta or the Sandoz Parties (including those undertaken by Affiliates or Third Parties on behalf of Momenta or the Sandoz Parties) [**] pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the Sandoz Parties shall have no obligation to indemnify the Momenta Indemnified Parties against Liabilities under (a) through (e) to the extent that such Liabilities arise from any Third Party legal or equitable claim that is subject to Momenta’s obligation to indemnify, defend, and hold the Sandoz Indemnified Parties harmless under Section 12.2.
12.2. Momenta Indemnification of Sandoz. Momenta shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Sandoz Indemnified Parties from and against all Liabilities awarded to a Third Party against the Sandoz Indemnified Parties or that may be incurred or paid by any of the Sandoz Indemnified Parties in the defense or compromise of legal or equitable claims asserted by
a Third Party, arising out of or resulting from (a) any breach of any obligation by Momenta hereunder, including, without limitation, the covenant in Section 9.4, (b) any misrepresentation by Momenta hereunder (including but not limited to any such breach by Momenta of Article 9 — Warranties) of this Agreement, or (c) any actual misappropriation by any Momenta Indemnified Party of any Third Party trade secret or know-how, provided that, (i) with respect to actual misappropriation, there has been a final adjudication of liability for misappropriation by a court of competent jurisdiction, or, (ii) with respect to misappropriation that has been alleged but not finally adjudicated, there is a settlement with a Third Party which the Parties determine by mutual agreement constitutes an acknowledgement by Momenta of actual misappropriation. (either case under (i) or (ii) being a “Final Misappropriation Determination”). If there is a dispute between the Parties as to whether a settlement constitutes such an acknowledgement, nationally-recognized outside counsel not regularly employed by any Party or their Affiliates who is mutually acceptable to the Parties shall be retained to resolve such dispute. In the event that Sandoz has, pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.1, incurred Liabilities with respect to an actual or alleged misappropriation by any Momenta Indemnified Party of any Third Party trade secret or know-how and a Final Misappropriation Determination occurs, Momenta shall, in addition to indemnifying the Sandoz Indemnified Parties for such Liabilities incurred by them pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 12.2, reimburse Sandoz for any Liabilities which Sandoz previously paid to or incurred on behalf of any of the Momenta Indemnified Parties that are allocable to the misappropriation claim that gave rise to the Final Misappropriation Determination.
12.3. Procedure. If any Momenta Indemnified Party or any Sandoz Indemnified Party (in each case, an “Indemnified Party”) receives any written claim or demand which such Indemnified Party believes is the subject of indemnity hereunder by Sandoz or Momenta as the case may be (in each case, an “Indemnifying Party”), the Indemnified Party shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after forming such belief, give notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided that the failure to give timely notice to the Indemnifying Party as contemplated hereby shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any liability to the Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such claim is materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall assume and diligently pursue the defense of such claim, at its cost, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have absolute control of the conduct of the litigation; provided, however, that
12.3.1 the Indemnified Party may, nevertheless, participate therein through counsel of its choice and at its cost, and shall be permitted to effectively associate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense, the prosecution and the negotiation of any settlement of the claim or demand;
12.3.2 the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party informed, through the JSC, of the status of the litigation;
12.3.3 the Indemnifying Party shall provide the Indemnified Party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on all pleadings, motions and other papers exchanged with the opposing party or filed with any court by the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim or demand (collectively, the
“Pleadings”) and the Indemnifying Party shall consider in good faith any input provided by the Indemnified Party with respect to the Pleadings; and
12.3.4 if the suit includes a defense of Momenta IP or an Invalidity Claim with respect to Momenta IP or the Joint Collaboration IP (in the event Momenta is the Indemnified Party), then the Indemnifying Party’s conduct of the litigation with respect to such claim(s) shall be subject to:
a. the approval of Momenta and/or
b. any contractual obligations to, or restrictions imposed by, the relevant Third Party licensor.
The Party not assuming the defense of any such claim or demand shall render all reasonable assistance to the Party assuming such defense as requested by such defending Party, and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs of such assistance shall be for the account of the Indemnifying Party. No such claim or demand shall be settled other than by the Party defending the same, and then only with the consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that the Indemnified Party shall have no obligation to consent to any settlement of any such claim which imposes on the Indemnified Party any liability or obligation which cannot be assumed and performed in full by the Indemnifying Party (subject, in the case of a Settlement, to the terms of Section 4.3) or which agrees that any element of any of Momenta IP or Joint Collaboration IP (in the event Momenta is the Indemnified Party) is invalid, not infringed or unenforceable.
12.4. Insurance. The Sandoz Parties shall be self-insured. To the extent Momenta is required to obtain the consent or waiver of MIT under the MIT Agreement to permit such self-insurance by the Sandoz Parties, Momenta shall use its best efforts to obtain such waiver or consent. Momenta shall comply with the insurance obligations imposed on Momenta pursuant to the MIT Agreement.
13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
13.1. First Level Resolution. Unless otherwise expressly provided for herein, any claim or controversy between Momenta, on the one hand, and the Sandoz Parties, on the other hand, arising out of or relating to the execution, interpretation and performance of this Agreement (including the validity, scope and enforceability of this provision) which has not been resolved by the JPT will be identified in writing and presented by the JPT to the JSC. The JSC shall meet within fourteen (14) days after delivery of the notice of dispute pursuant to this Section 13.1 and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute. If the JSC is unable to decide or resolve an issue unanimously or in the event of any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or to the breach, termination, or validity of this Agreement a notice of dispute shall be submitted to the relevant Executive Officers of the Parties for resolution by good-faith negotiations pursuant to Section 13.2.
13.2. Negotiation Between Executives. Within fourteen (14) days after delivery of the notice of dispute pursuant to Section 13.1, the Sandoz Executive Officer (unless the Sandoz Parties designate, within one (1) Business Day after delivery of the notice of dispute pursuant to
Section 13.1, that the BCWI Executive Officer shall participate instead) and the Momenta Executive Officer shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith. All reasonable requests for information made by one Party to another will be honored. All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence. If such Executive Officers cannot resolve such dispute within fourteen (14) days after such meeting, then each Party reserves its right to any and all remedies available under law or equity with respect to any other dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Executive Officers shall meet and attempt to resolve any dispute regarding the strategy to achieve Legal Clearance within seven (7) days (or such other mutually agreed period) after delivery of the notice of dispute pursuant to Section 13.1, and, if such Executive Officers cannot resolve such dispute within such time period, then (except as provided in Section 11.4) such dispute shall be considered resolved in Sandoz’s favor.
13.3. Legal Remedies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 13, any Party may seek immediate injunctive or other interim relief from any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary to enforce and prevent infringement or misappropriation of the patent rights, copyright rights, trademarks, confidential information, trade secrets, or other intellectual property rights owned or controlled by a Party or its Affiliates or to prevent breach of Article 10.

SCHEDULE 1.48
CALCULATION OF MANUFACTURING COSTS
Manufacturing Cost with respect to a Party’s or its Affiliates’ cost to manufacture and/or Label the Product in finished form shall be calculated as the sum of [Actual Cost of Raw Materials] + [Actual Direct Labor Costs] + [Manufacturing Overhead Costs], where:
Actual Cost of Raw Materials. The Actual Cost of Raw Materials means: (a) the actual purchase unit cost of raw materials, including, without limitation, all starting materials, biological products, biological molecules, chemicals, precursors, intermediates, reagents, and active pharmaceutical ingredients; and (b) the actual purchase unit cost of packaging components necessary to manufacture or Label the Product, as the case may be; in each case of (a) and (b), multiplied by the actual quantity consumed in the production and manufacturing and/or Labeling process, as the case may be, including any usage or yield variances and any write-offs caused by expiration, obsolescence, accident and/or book-to-physical differences, and (c) all direct shipping costs to the manufacturer associated with (a) and (b) above.
Actual Direct Labor Costs. Actual Direct Labor Costs means the actual cost of direct labor (salary and benefits) to manufacture and/or Label the Product, including, without limitation, (a) any efficiency, activity and spending variances from standards; (b) material adjustments for off-grade or defective material, handling losses, physical adjustments, and salvage; and (c) shipment charges, including all direct costs of shipping from the Party’s manufacturing and/or distribution facility to a Third Party Labeler and from such Third Party Labeler to such Party’s destination facility.
Manufacturing Overhead Costs. Manufacturing Overhead Costs means the reasonable manufacturing overhead resources consumed in the manufacturing and production and/or Labeling process, as the case may be, of a specified quantity of the Product, which, with respect to any plant, except a plant, or a part of a plant, built exclusively for the manufacture of the Product, shall be based on the then-current Full Capacity of the relevant plant, rather than the actual level of demand throughput, and which shall include, without limitation: (a) normal depreciation of building, machinery, and equipment; and (b) plant management. “Full Capacity” means, (x) with respect to a plant operating at or below [**]% of its Entire Capacity, [**]% of the Entire Capacity, and (y) with respect to a plant operating above [**]% of its Entire Capacity, the actual demand throughput at which the plant is operating. “Entire Capacity” means production at [**] percent ([**]%), which shall not exclude any loss of capacity resulting from planned maintenance.
For the sake of clarity, and by way of examples, (1) if a plant is operating at [**]% of its Entire Capacity, and [**]% percent of the plant’s Entire Capacity is devoted to the manufacture of the Product, [**]% ([**]) of the plant’s overhead shall be allocated to the Product, and (2) if a plant is operating at [**]% of its Entire Capacity and [**]% of the plant’s Entire Capacity is devoted to the manufacture of the Product, [**]% ([**]) of the plant’s overhead shall be allocated to the Product.

The Commercial Milestone Payment(s) shall be the lesser of (a) the Full Milestone Payment(s) which is to be made (in accordance with the timing in Section 4.10.2(b) for an applicable Milestone Payment Quarter, or (b) the remainder after (i) the aggregate portions of Profits paid to Momenta (excluding the effects of subsections C and E of this Schedule 4.3) for all Post-Launch Quarters (including the then-current Milestone Payment Quarter) after the most recent prior Milestone Payment Quarter (or, if no prior Milestone Payment Quarter has occurred, all Post-Launch Quarters), are deducted from (ii) [**]percent ([**]%) of the aggregate Profits for all Post-Launch Quarters (including the then-current Milestone Payment Quarter) after the most recent prior Milestone Payment Quarter (or, if no prior Milestone Payment Quarter has occurred, all Post-Launch Quarters). For example, if Final Legal Clearance is achieved prior to the [**] anniversary of the U.S. Launch and [**], and if Profits for the [**] Post-Launch Quarters are U.S.$[**], then Momenta’s portion of the Profits would be U.S.$[**]. The Commercial Milestone Payment would be reduced to U.S. $[**] (i.e., the lesser of (a) U.S.$[**] or (b) U.S.$[**] (i.e., U.S.$[**] — U.S.$[**] ([**]% of the U.S.$[**] Profits minus the portion of Profits due to Momenta))).
2. Carryforward and Momenta Share of Excess Costs Deduction. After the provisions of subsection B.1 of this Schedule 4.3 have been applied, if there are New Excess Costs with respect to the Milestone Payment Quarter or a Carryforward exists at the start of such Milestone Payment Quarter, then the amounts of the Carryforward and the Momenta Share of Excess Costs with respect to such Post-Launch Quarter shall first be applied to reduce the amount of the Commercial Milestone Payment to be paid by Sandoz, and any Carryforward or Momenta Share of Excess Costs remaining with respect to such Post-Launch Quarter after the applicable Milestone Payment(s) has been reduced to zero in accordance with this subsection B.2 shall then be applied in accordance with the provisions of subsection C of this Schedule 4.3.
C. Offsets Against Payments of Profit Interest and Royalties
1. Full Milestone Payment Deduction. If, pursuant to subsection B.1 of this Schedule 4.3, the Commercial Milestone Payment(s) to be paid in a Milestone Payment Quarter is equal to the applicable Full Milestone Payment(s), the Profit Interest for such Post-Launch Quarter shall be adjusted to equal the product of (a) [**] percent ([**]%) times (b) the remaining Profits after such Full Milestone Payment(s) are deducted from Profits in the U.S. Territory for the applicable Post-Launch Quarter.
2. New Excess Costs Deduction. If New Excess Costs exist with respect to a Post-Launch Quarter, and Sandoz does not exercise its right to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 11.5 (if applicable), then, to the extent any Momenta Share of Excess Costs were not applied in full to reduce the amount of the Commercial Milestone Payment(s) pursuant to subsection B.2 of this Schedule 4.3, the amount of any Profit Interest or royalties, as the case may be, otherwise payable to Momenta for such Post-Launch Quarter shall be reduced by the applicable Momenta Share of Excess Costs for such Post-Launch Quarter, subject to the provisions of subsection D of this Schedule 4.3.
3. Carryforward Deduction. If a Carryforward exists with respect to a Post-Launch Quarter, then, to the extent such Carryforward was not applied in full to reduce the amount of the Commercial Milestone Payment pursuant to subsection B.2 of this Schedule 4.3, the amount of any Profit Interest or royalties, as the case may be, otherwise payable to Momenta for such Post-Launch Quarter shall be reduced by the applicable remaining Carryforward, subject to the provisions of subsection D of this Schedule 4.3.
D. [**]% Reduction Floor
1. Deduction Limit. With respect to any Post-Launch Quarter, the deduction of the Momenta Share of Excess Costs for such Post-Launch Quarter, the Carryforward and the True-Up Amount for such Post-Launch Quarter, collectively, shall not reduce by more than [**]percent ([**]%) the portion of Profits otherwise payable to Momenta for such Post-Launch Quarter under Sections 4.5 or 4.8 or the royalties otherwise payable to Momenta for such Post-Launch Quarter under Sections 4.6, 4.7 or 4.8, as applicable, and any portion of the Momenta Share of Excess Costs for such Post-Launch Quarter or the True-Up Amount for such Post-Launch Quarter not deducted from Profits or royalties payable to Momenta as a result of such limitation shall be added to the Carryforward for subsequent Post-Launch Quarters.
E. Momenta Economic Interest True-Up.
1. Overpayment by Momenta. If the Economic Interest Variance for a Post-Launch Year is negative, then the Sandoz Parties shall pay to Momenta, within forty-five (45) days after the end of such Post-Launch Year, an amount equal to the absolute value of the True-Up Amount for such Post-Launch Year.
2. Underpayment by Momenta. If the Economic Interest Variance for a Post-Launch Year is positive, then, prior to the payment of any portion of Profits or the royalties to Momenta
with respect to the last Post-Launch Quarter in such Post-Launch Year, the True-Up Amount for such Post-Launch Year shall first be deducted from the portion of Profits or the royalties otherwise payable to Momenta for such last Post-Launch Quarter in such Post-Launch Year, subject to the provisions of subsection D of this Schedule 4.3.
F. Examples
The following examples are for illustrative purposes only. Any errors or omissions in this section should not be construed to change the meaning of the rest of this Schedule 4.3 or this Agreement. Figures 4.3(a) and 4.3(b) provide spreadsheets with calculations through the [**] Post-launch Year.
Assumptions. Net Sales, Manufacturing Costs, Selling Expenses, and New Excess Costs are as reported in Figures 4.3(a) and 4.3(b). It is assumed for this example that [**] until the beginning of the [**] Post-Launch Year (it is assumed that [**] as of the first day of the [**] Launch Year and is not [**]). It is also assumed that First Commercial Sale of the Product occurs part-way through the [**] Post-Launch Quarter. Finally, it is assumed that First Commercial Sale does not occur until after Final Legal Clearance in Figure 4.3(a), and that Final Legal Clearance occurs during the [**] Quarter of the [**] Post-Launch Year in Figure 4.3(b). All numbers are reported to two decimal points for ease of illustration and except as otherwise specified represent millions of US dollars.
Calculations for figure 4.3(a) (working column by column from left to right).
Profit. The total Profit is calculated by subtracting Manufacturing Costs and Selling Expenses from Net Sales.
Preliminary Profit/Royalty Calculation 1. The column entitled Preliminary Profit/Royalty Calculation 1 (taking into account only Net Sales, Manufacturing Costs, Selling Expenses and Third Party Competitor status), is calculated, based on the assumptions listed above, as [**]% of Profits until a Third Party Competitor exists at the beginning of the [**] Post-Launch Year, and then as tiered Post-[**] Royalty rates on Net Sales of [**]% and [**]%, as applicable.
Momenta Economic Interest. In the first [**] Post-Launch Years, the Momenta Economic Interest is calculated as the lesser of the Actual Momenta Economic Interest or the Estimated Momenta Economic Interest (as described in subsection A of this Schedule 4.3). As an example, Actual Momenta Economic Interest in the [**] Quarter of the [**] Post-Launch Year is calculated as follows. The sum of the Profit/Royalty payable to Momenta (as calculated in the previous column) for all Quarters from U.S. Launch through the [**] Quarter of the [**] Post-Launch Year ($[**]) is divided by the sum of the Profits for the Product over the same period ($[**]) to yield [**]%. Since this is less than the Estimated Momenta Economic Interest of [**]% for that same Quarter, the Momenta Economic Interest is [**]%. In the Sixth and subsequent Post-Launch Years, the Momenta Economic Interest is calculated as described in subsection A of this Schedule 4.3.
Commercial Milestone Payment. The first Commercial Milestone Payment in the illustration is reduced for two reasons. First, the Sandoz Parties’ portion of Profits would be less than [**]% if the full $[**] Commercial Milestone Payment was made. Therefore, the Commercial Milestone is reduced as follows. [**]% of the Profits since the last Milestone Payment Quarter (or since U.S. Launch in this case, since it is the first Commercial Milestone Payment) is calculated. Here, the total Profits are $[**], and [**]% of the sum of such Profits for the [**] through the [**] Post-Launch Quarters is $[**]. From this [**]% of the $[**] in Profits is subtracted any Profit/royalty payments made to Momenta (excluding the effects of subsections C and E of this Schedule 4.3) during the same [**] Quarters (in this case, Profit payments, which total $[**]), resulting in $[**]. This $[**] is the Commercial Milestone Payment adjusted for the provision that ensures the Sandoz Parties’ minimum [**]% Profit share (subsection B.1 of this Schedule 4.3). The first Commercial Milestone Payment is then further adjusted (as described in subsection B.2 of this Schedule 4.3) by subtracting $[**] for the Momenta Share of Excess Costs in that Quarter, resulting in a final adjusted Commercial Milestone Payment of $[**]. The second and third Commercial Milestone Payments do not require similar adjustments and are both $[**].
Preliminary Profit/Royalty Calculation 2. The Preliminary Profit/Royalty Calculation 2 in the next column now includes the impact of any deductions made as a result of the Commercial Milestone Payments. Note that the first Commercial Milestone Payment which is reduced due to the provision related to the Sandoz Parties’ [**]% Profit minimum, as described above, is not subtracted in the Profit calculation (as described in subsection C of this Schedule 4.3). The second and third Commercial Milestone Payments, which are full $[**] payments, are subtracted.
Momenta Share of Excess Costs. Momenta Share of Excess Costs are calculated by multiplying New Excess Costs in the applicable Quarter by the applicable Momenta Economic Interest for that same Quarter.
True Up Amount. The True-Up Amount is calculated by multiplying the Economic Interest Variance by the sum of all previous Quarters’ (but not including the current Quarter’s) New Excess Costs. For example, in Q4 of the [**] Post-Launch Year, the Economic Interest Variance of [**]% ([**]%-[**]%) is multiplied by the sum of $[**], $[**], and $[**] (but not $[**]) to yield $[**].
Preliminary Profit/Royalty Calculation 3. The Preliminary Profit/Royalty Calculation 3 in the next column now takes into account both the Momenta Share of Excess Costs and the True-Up Amount. Note that in the [**] Post-launch Quarter, the Momenta Share of Excess Costs would reduce the payment by more than [**]%. Hence (as described in subsection D of this Schedule 4.3), the payment amount is only reduced here from $[**] to [**]% of this amount, or $[**] Thus only $[**] of the $[**] of the Momenta Share of Excess Costs is paid in this Quarter. The remaining $[**] becomes part of the Carryforward.
Carryforward and Final Profit/Royalty Calculation. Carryforwards are subtracted from the Preliminary Profit/Royalty Calculations 3 in the previous column to complete the Final Profit/Royalty Calculation.
Differences in calculations for Figure 4.3(b). Except as provided in this paragraph, the assumptions and calculations of Figure 4.3(a) apply to Figure 4.3(b). In Figure 4.3(b), Final Legal Clearance occurs during the first Quarter of the [**] Post-Launch Year. As a result, no Commercial Milestone Payments are made in the first Quarter of the [**] Post-Launch Year or in the first Quarter of the [**] Post-Launch Year. In the first Quarter of the [**] Post-Launch Year, the Momenta Share of Excess Costs is deducted from the Preliminary Profit/Royalty Calculation 2 rather than from the Commercial Milestone Payment. Finally, the Commercial Milestone Payment in Figure 4.3(b) is made in the Quarter that Final Legal Clearance occurs. The payment is calculated according to subsection B.1 of this Schedule 4.3. This payment is also subtracted from Profits to calculate the Preliminary Profit/Royalty 2 for the first Quarter of the [**] Post-Launch Year in accordance with subsection C.1 of this Schedule 4.3.
