Any such extension shall be mutually agreed in writing. Upon the expiration of the Initial Term and any subsequent Term thereafter, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive two (2) year periods (each a “Renewal Term”) unless, at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the scheduled expiry of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, either Party provides the other with written notice of its intention not to renew the Agreement (a “Non-Renewal Notice”), in which case this Agreement shall expire at the end of the applicable period.
11.2 Early Termination. This Agreement may be terminated as follows:
(a) If the NDA Transfer Date has not occurred within six (6) months of the Effective Date, either Party may provide written notice of an intent to terminate this Agreement, provided that if a Party intends to terminate the Agreement, such Party shall first discuss in good faith the reasons for seeking termination and considers potential alternatives to termination, including potential amendments to the Agreement. Termination under this Section 11.2(a) shall not effective be sooner than thirty (30) days from the date of notice.
(b) Either Party may, without prejudice to any other remedies available to it under this Agreement or at Applicable Law or in equity:
(i) immediately terminate this Agreement upon the filing or institution of bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment of a substantial portion of the assets for the benefit of creditors by the other Party; provided, however, in the case of any involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or assignment proceeding such right to terminate shall only become effective if such other Party consents to the involuntary proceeding or such proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the filing thereof; or

(ii) terminate this Agreement prior to expiration of the Term in the event the other Party is in material default or breach of the performance of its obligations hereunder, and has not cured such breach within (i) thirty (30) days after written notice thereof provided by the non-breaching Party to the breaching Party, in case such breach is a non-payment of any amount due under this Agreement (which shall be deemed a material breach) and (ii) sixty (60) days after written notice thereof provided by the non-breaching Party to the breaching Party for other cases of breach. The termination shall become effective at the end of the (x) thirty (30) day period in case the breach is a non-payment of any amount due under this Agreement if the breaching Party has not cured such breach during such thirty (30) day period, or (y) sixty (60) day period for other cases of breach unless the breaching Party cures such breach during such sixty (60) day period. The right of either Braeburn or Knight to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 11.2 shall not be affected in any way by such Party’s waiver or failure to take action with respect to any previous breach or default.
(c) Braeburn may, without prejudice to any other remedies available to it under this Agreement or at Applicable Law or in equity, terminate this Agreement:
(i) on thirty (30) days written notice to Knight, if Knight, following Launch, discontinues commercial sale of Sublicensed Product for a period of three (3) months or more for reasons unrelated to Force Majeure, regulatory or safety issues or supply or manufacturing or Sublicensed Product quality issues and subsequently fails to resume sales of a Product within thirty (30) days of having been notified in writing of such failure by Braeburn;
(ii) upon written notice to Knight in the event Knight or any of its Affiliates or sublicensees commences any legal proceeding seeking to challenge or otherwise dispute the validity or ownership of any of the Braeburn Patents or any of the claims therein, or knowingly assists any Third Party to do any of the foregoing, which termination shall be effective on the date set forth in such notice; or
(iii) If Braeburn determines, in its sole discretion, that it is in its best interests to terminate the Titan Agreement pursuant to any one of Sections 12.2(c)(i), 12.2(c)(iii), and 12.2(c)(iv) of the Titan Agreement, then Braeburn shall provide Knight with at least ninety (90) days’ prior notice and, during such ninety-day (90-day) period, Braeburn shall discuss with Knight, in good faith, whether the grounds upon which Braeburn judges termination to be in its best interests can be adequately mitigated. If, after discussions with Knight, Braeburn still decides it is in Braeburn’s best interests to terminate the Titan Agreement, then Braeburn shall negotiate

in good faith with Titan and Knight to determine whether Titan would agree to license rights in the Territory directly to Knight, including a commitment to supply Sublicensed Products to Knight. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Braeburn may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.2(c)(iii) prior to three (3) years following the NDA Transfer date and then only upon at least one (1) year prior notice. If Braeburn terminates the Titan agreement pursuant to this Section 11.2(c)(iii), then, notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, the ROFN outlined in Section 2.9 shall survive for the remainder of the Initial Term.
(d) Either Party may, without prejudice to any other remedies available to it under this Agreement or at Applicable Law or in equity, terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party, if either Party determines in good faith that it is not advisable for Knight to continue to Commercialize any Sublicensed Products in the Territory as a result of a bona fide safety issue regarding any Sublicensed Products.
(e) This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event the Titan Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the Term; provided that Braeburn shall not seek to terminate the Titan Agreement for any reason other than what is contemplated in Section 11.2(c) hereof, or Section 12.2(a) of the Titan Agreement.
11.3 Effect of Termination. Upon expiry or termination of this Agreement, all sublicenses and rights granted by Braeburn hereunder shall terminate and:
(a) Knight undertakes to:
(i) except as provided for in Section 11.5, cease any Commercialization of Sublicensed Products in the Territory;
(ii) commence, within thirty (30) days of expiry or termination, and complete as promptly as practicable, the transfer of title to all current and pending Regulatory Submissions and Regulatory Approvals for the Sublicensed Products to Braeburn or its designee and assist Braeburn in submitting appropriate documents to transfer the Regulatory Submissions and Regulatory Approvals for the Sublicensed Products to Braeburn or its designee;
(iii) pay Braeburn all Royalties generated by sales of Sublicensed Products, including any sales in accordance with Section 11.5; and
(iv) promptly transfer to Braeburn or its designee copies of all data, reports, records and materials in Knight’s possession or Control that relate to Sublicensed Products and return to Braeburn all relevant records and

materials in Knight’s possession or Control containing Confidential Information of Braeburn (provided that Knight may keep (a) one (1) copy of such Confidential Information of Braeburn for archival purposes solely for the purpose of compliance with this Agreement and (b) electronic copies stored in automatic computer back-up systems ).
(b) Braeburn undertakes to promptly return to Knight all relevant records and materials in Braeburn’s possession or Control containing Confidential Information of Knight (provided that Braeburn may keep one (1) copy of such Confidential Information of Knight for archival purposes solely for the purpose of compliance with this Agreement).
11.4 Survival. In the event of the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, the following provisions of this Agreement shall survive: Article 1; Sections 6.3(c); 6.4; 6.5; 8.1; 9.3 through 9.9; Articles 10 through 13; and any other terms which, by their nature, require or contemplate performance by the Parties after expiry or termination. In any event, expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Parties of any liability which accrued hereunder prior to the effective date of such expiration or termination.
11.5 Sell-Off of Inventory. Subject to the payment of all amounts due to Braeburn hereunder, upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Knight shall be entitled to sell off or otherwise dispose of any of Knight’s inventory of Sublicensed Products existing on the date such expiration or termination is effective; provided, however, that, at Braeburn’s request, Knight shall promptly return to Braeburn all or any portion of such inventory of Sublicensed Products that has not been sold or used within [***] months following such expiration or termination and Braeburn shall reimburse Knight any Supply Price previously paid by Knight for such Sublicensed Products that are returned to Braeburn
12. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
12.1 Arbitration. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or to the breach, termination, or validity of this Agreement, will be resolved as follows: each Party shall discuss the matter and make reasonable efforts to attempt to resolve the dispute. If the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute, the chief executive officer of each Party, or their designees, will meet within [***] days of a request to attempt to resolve such dispute being made by a Party. If the chief executive officers, or their designees, cannot resolve the dispute through good faith negotiations within [***] days after a Party requests such meeting, then the Parties shall resort to binding arbitration before a single arbitrator, in New York, New York, using the arbitration procedures set forth under the laws of the State of New York. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and not subject to appeal and the arbitrator may apportion the costs of the arbitration, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Parties, between or among the Parties in such manner as the arbitrator considers reasonable. All matters in relation to the arbitration shall be kept confidential to the full extent permitted

by law, and no individual shall be appointed as an arbitrator unless he or she agrees in writing to be bound by this provision.
12.2 Irreparable Harm. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12.1, if either Party in its sole judgment, acting reasonably, believes that any such dispute could cause it irreparable harm, such Party will be entitled to seek temporary equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to avoid such irreparable harm during the pendency of the procedure set forth in Section 12.1. For the avoidance of any doubt, nothing in this Article 12 shall preclude, interfere with or modify either Party’s rights under Article 11 above with respect to the termination of this Agreement.
13. OTHER PROVISIONS
13.1 Withholding Tax. Knight will make all payments to Braeburn under this Agreement without deduction or withholding for taxes except to the extent that any such deduction or withholding is required by Applicable Law in effect at the time of payment. Any tax required to be withheld on amounts payable by Knight under this Agreement will be timely paid by Knight on behalf of Braeburn to the appropriate Governmental Authority, and Knight will furnish Braeburn with the corresponding proof of payment of such tax, as may be required in order to enable Braeburn to request reimbursement or deduction of the withheld amount, or to otherwise comply with its duties. Knight and Braeburn agree to cooperate to legally minimize and reduce such withholding taxes and provide any information or documentation required by any taxing authority.
13.2 Further Assurances. Upon request by either Party and at such Party’s expense, the other Party shall do such further acts and execute such additional agreements and instruments as may be reasonably necessary to give effect to the purposes of this Agreement.
13.3 Independent Status. Each Party’s legal relationship under this Agreement to the other Party shall be that of independent contractor, and not partners or joint venturers.
13.4 Assignment. This Agreement may not be, directly or indirectly, assigned or otherwise transferred, in whole or in part, by a Party to a Third Party without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that each Party may assign this Agreement to (a) any of its Affiliate or (b) in connection with its acquisition or the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of its assets or its business to which this Agreement relates, without such consent; provided, further, that the assigning Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any such assignment. The rights and obligations contained herein shall inure to the benefit of each Party’s successors and permitted assigns, and shall be binding on and enforceable against the relevant Party’s successors and permitted assigns. Any reference in this Agreement to any Party shall be construed accordingly. Any purported assignment not in accordance with this Agreement shall be void.

13.5 Compliance with Applicable Law. In connection with their activities under this Agreement, each Party shall comply with, and shall not be in violation of, any Applicable Laws.
13.6 Force Majeure.

A Party whose performance of obligations has been delayed by Force Majeure shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to overcome the effect of the Force Majeure as soon as possible. The other Party will have no right to demand indemnity for damage or assert a breach against such Party, provided, however, that if the event of Force Majeure preventing performance shall continue for more than [***] months and such underlying cause would not also prevent other parties from performing such obligations, then the Party not subject to the event of Force Majeure may terminate this Agreement with a written notice to the other without any liability hereunder, except the obligation to make payments due to such date and any obligations surviving under Section 11.4.
13.7 Notices and Amendments. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by facsimile or other means of electronic communication or by hand delivery as hereinafter provided.
