ARTICLE II

 

Purchase and Sale of Purchased Receivables

 

Section 2.1 Purchase and Sale of Purchased Receivables.

 

(a)Purchase and Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Seller Parties shall sell, transfer, assign and convey to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase, acquire and accept from the Seller Parties, free and clear of all Adverse Claims (other than Permitted Adverse Claims or Adverse Claims arising through Purchaser), all of the Seller Parties’ right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Receivables.

 

(b)Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Purchased Receivables shall be $16,501,045.00 (which represents $17,000,000.00 less the Royalty Payment with respect to the quarter ended September 30, 2020, which was in the amount of $498,955 and was received by the Seller on or about December 1, 2020) (the “Purchase Price”), payable by Purchaser to the Seller on the Closing Date.

 

Section 2.2 No Purchase or Sale of Excluded Assets. Except for the Purchased Receivables and as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, (a) the Seller Parties shall retain all of their right, title and interest in and to the Product and pSivida Technology (each as defined in the Collaboration Agreement), and (b) all rights to the Product and pSivida Technology and rights under the Product Agreement and any Additional License Agreements are excluded from the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance to Purchaser under this Agreement.

 

Section 2.3 No Obligations Transferred. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance to Purchaser of the Purchased Receivables pursuant to this Agreement shall not in any way subject Purchaser to, or transfer, affect or modify, any obligation or liability of any Seller Party under any Product Agreement and (b) Purchaser expressly does not assume or agree to become responsible for any obligation or liability of the Seller Parties under any Product Agreement, including any indemnification obligations of the Seller Parties in Section 9.1 of the Collaboration Agreement, or otherwise.

 

Section 2.4 Sale.

 

(a)It is the intention of the parties hereto that the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute a sale of the Purchased Receivables from the Seller Parties to Purchaser and not a financing transaction, borrowing or loan; and accordingly, the Seller Parties and the Purchaser will treat the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Purchased Receivables as sales of “accounts” in accordance with the UCC for accounting purposes, except to the extent GAAP, or the rules of the SEC, as applicable, require otherwise with respect to the Seller’s consolidated financial statements, and the Seller Parties hereby authorize Purchaser or its designee, from and after the Closing Date, to execute, record and file such financing statements (and continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when applicable) naming the Seller Parties as the seller/debtor and Purchaser as the purchaser/secured party of the Purchased Receivables as may be necessary to perfect such sale in accordance with the UCC. Without limiting the provisions of this Section 2.4, in an abundance of

 

7


 

caution to address the possibility that, notwithstanding that the Seller Parties and Purchaser expressly intend and expect for the sale, conveyance, assignment and transfer of the Purchased Receivables hereunder to be a true and absolute sale and assignment for all purposes, to protect the interests of Purchaser in the event that such sale and assignment is recharacterized as something other than a true sale or such sale will for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable as such, as determined in a judicial, administrative or other proceeding, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement and the Seller Parties do hereby grant to Purchaser, a continuing security interest of first priority in all of the Seller Parties’ right, title and interest in, to and under the Purchased Receivables, whether now or hereafter acquired or arising, and wherever located, and any and all “proceeds” thereof (as such term is defined in the UCC), to secure payment to Purchaser of amounts equal to the Purchased Receivables as they are paid under the Product Agreements, and the Seller Parties do hereby authorize Purchaser to file such financing statements (and continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when applicable) as may be necessary to perfect its security interest. The Seller Parties waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to contest or otherwise assert that this Agreement is other than a true, complete, absolute and irrevocable sale by the Seller Parties to Purchaser of the Purchased Receivables under applicable Law, which waiver shall be enforceable, to the maximum extent permitted by law, against the Seller Parties in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding relating to any Seller Parties. The Purchased Receivables shall not be reflected on the Seller Parties’ financial statements as assets of the Seller Parties, except to the extent GAAP, or the rules of the SEC, as applicable, require otherwise with respect to the Seller’s consolidated financial statements.

 

(b)Except as otherwise set forth in Article VII (Indemnification), each of the Seller Parties and the Purchaser agrees that the purchase of the Purchased Receivables by the Purchaser hereunder is without recourse. Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any claim against Seller for the non-payment of any amount due under the Product Agreements due to Credit Risk. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Credit Risk” means the risk that a Counterparty fails to make a payment when due of a Purchased Receivable due to bankruptcy, insolvency, lack of adequate funds, economic downturn, adverse market conditions, technology obsolescence of the Product, debt moratorium, exchange controls, currency restrictions, refusal to pay, failure to sell the Product or do such other things as would generate Royalties, or other reason that is not based on a contract claim or dispute under the Product Agreements.

 

Section 2.5 Nonassignable Assets.   Nothing in this Agreement nor the consummation  of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be construed as an attempt or agreement to assign any asset included in the Purchased Receivables, including any Contract, approval, authorization or other right, which by its terms or by Law is nonassignable (after giving effect to Sections 9-406 through 9-409 of the UCC) without the consent of a third party or is cancelable by a third party in the event of an assignment (“Nonassignable Assets”) unless and until such consent shall have been obtained or to the extent any such assignment restriction is removed or expires by its term; provided that in no event shall the right to receive Royalty Payments in respect of the Purchased Receivables be excluded. The Seller Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Purchaser in endeavoring to obtain such consents promptly. In the event consents to the assignment thereof cannot be obtained, such Nonassignable Assets shall be held by the applicable Seller Party in trust for Purchaser and the covenants and obligations thereunder shall be performed by such Seller Party in Purchaser’s name and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder shall be for Purchaser’s account. The Seller Parties shall take such actions as Purchaser may reasonably request so as to provide Purchaser with the benefits of the Nonassignable Assets and to effect

 

8

(a)Breach of a Product Agreement by a Seller Party.Promptly after (i) receiving notice from a Counterparty (A) terminating a Product Agreement (in whole or in part), (B) alleging any breach of or default under a Product Agreement by a Seller Party or (C) asserting the existence of any facts, circumstances or events that, alone or together with other facts, circumstances or events, could reasonably be expected (with or without the giving of notice or passage of time, or both) to give rise to a breach of or default under a Product Agreement by either Seller  Party  or  the  right  to  terminate  a  Product  Agreement  (in  whole  or  in  part)  by such Counterparty or (ii) either Seller Party otherwise has knowledge of any fact, circumstance or event that, alone or together with other facts, circumstances or events, could reasonably be expected (with or without the giving of notice or passage of time, or both) to give rise to a breach of or default under a Product Agreement by a Seller Party or give the right to terminate a Product Agreement  (in  whole  or  in  part)  by  a  Counterparty,  in  each  case,  such  Seller  Party shall (A) promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) give a written notice to Purchaser describing in reasonable detail the relevant breach, default or termination event, including a copy of any written notice received from such Counterparty, and, in the case of any breach or default or alleged breach or default by a Seller Party, describing in reasonable detail any corrective action such Seller Party proposes to take, and (B) use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly cure such breach or default and shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) give written notice to Purchaser upon curing such breach or default; provided, however, that, if the Seller Parties fail to promptly cure such breach or default, Purchaser shall, to the extent permitted by the Product Agreement, be entitled to take any and all actions Purchaser considers reasonably necessary to promptly cure such breach or default, and the Seller Parties shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser for such purpose and reimburse Purchaser promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following notice thereof) for all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith.

(b)Breach of a Product Agreement by a Counterparty. Promptly after either Seller Party obtains knowledge of a breach or default or alleged breach or default under a Product Agreement by a Counterparty or of the existence of any facts, circumstances or events that, alone or together with other facts, circumstances or events, could reasonably be expected (with or without the giving of notice or passage of time, or both) to give rise to a breach or default under a Product Agreement by such Counterparty or the right to terminate a Product Agreement (in whole or in part) by Seller, in each case, such Seller Party shall (i) within five (5) Business Days of obtaining such knowledge, give a written notice to Purchaser describing in reasonable detail the relevant breach, default or termination event and (ii) if requested by Purchaser, proceed in consultation with Purchaser and take such permissible actions (including commencing legal action against the Counterparty with legal counsel selected by Purchaser, such counsel to be reasonably satisfactory to the Seller Parent and the costs and expenses of such counsel to be borne by the Seller Parties) to enforce compliance by the Counterparty with the relevant provisions of a Product Agreement and to exercise any or all of Purchaser’s or Seller’s rights and remedies, whether under a Product Agreement or by operation of law, with respect thereto. Purchaser shall have the right, at its sole expense, to participate in and control, with counsel appointed by it, any meeting, discussion, action, suit or other proceeding relating to any such breach, default or termination event

 

20


 

or alleged breach, default or termination event, including any counterclaim, settlement discussions or meetings; provided, that the fees and expenses of Purchaser’s counsel in connection therewith shall be borne by the Seller Parties if such breach, default or termination event or alleged breach, default or termination event results from, or is directly caused by a breach or default by either Seller Party. The Seller Parties shall make reasonably available their relevant records and personnel to Purchaser in connection with any prosecution or litigation against the Counterparty to enforce any of Purchaser’s or Seller’s rights under the Product Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.6, nothing herein shall prevent, restrict or limit Purchaser from directly enforcing a Counterparty’s payment obligations in respect of the Purchased Receivables with counsel selected by Purchaser in its sole discretion and at its sole cost and expense.

(c)Allocation of Proceeds and Costs of Enforcement. The Proceeds of any enforcement of a Counterparty’s payment obligations under the Product Agreements relating to the Purchased Receivables pursuant to this Section 6.6, after deduction of all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Seller and/or Purchaser in connection with such enforcement, shall belong to Purchaser.

 

Section 6.7 Termination of Product Agreements.

 

(a)In no event shall either Seller Party exercise any right to terminate any of the Product Agreements, or agree with a Counterparty to terminate any of the Product Agreements, except with the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent may be withheld or delayed in Purchaser’s sole discretion). In the event of a merger, consolidation or acquisition between a Seller Party (or any of their Affiliates) and a Counterparty (“Party Merger”), the Product Agreements shall continue in full force and effect as if there had been no such merger, consolidation or acquisition. Without limiting the foregoing, in the case of the extinguishment of a party to the Product Agreements as a result of a Party Merger, the sales of Products and business that generate Royalties under the Product Agreements prior to such Party Merger, made by the surviving entity shall continue to be used to determine the amounts due Purchaser as Purchased Receivables.

 

(b)Without limiting the provisions of Section 6.6, if a Counterparty or either Seller Party (with the prior written consent of Purchaser) terminates or provides written notice of termination of any Product Agreement (in whole or in part), or any such Product Agreement is otherwise terminated (in whole or in part), then the Seller Parties may, in their sole discretion, use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into replacement Product Agreements (on substantially the same terms as those in the Product Agreements that are being replaced) with suitable replacement Counterparties as soon as reasonably practicable (any such license, a “New Arrangement”); provided, however, that if the termination of such Product Agreement (i) was due to a breach in the Product Agreement by a Seller Party, or (ii) caused a breach in this Agreement by a Seller Party (in the event of a termination as a result of (i) or (ii), a Wrongful Termination”), then the Seller Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to enter into a replacement Product Agreement as described above. In the event the Seller Parties are unable to or unwilling to secure one or more replacement Product Agreements within sixty (60) days of any such termination, the Seller Parties agree that Purchaser shall have the right to negotiate a New Arrangement and grant a license of the Product Related IP for Products on substantially the same terms as those in the Product Agreement that is being replaced. The Seller Parties shall provide

 

21


 

reasonable assistance to and cooperate with Purchaser in such efforts as Purchaser shall reasonably undertake in connection with the negotiation of a license, which shall include terms no less favorable in the aggregate to the Seller Parties than those contained in the Product Agreement being replaced with respect to obligations and costs imposed on the Seller Parties, disclaimers of the applicable Seller Parties’ liability, intellectual property ownership, protection and control, commercialization diligence and indemnification of the applicable Seller Parties subject to the termination terms set forth therein. All costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Seller Parties and Purchaser in connection with the negotiation and consummation of the New Arrangement pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall be borne by the Party incurring such cost or expense; provided, however, that in the event such negotiations and consummations are in connection with a Wrongful Termination, all such costs and expenses shall be borne by the Seller Parties. Should Purchaser identify any New Arrangement, the Seller Parties agree to negotiate in good faith such New Arrangement that satisfies the foregoing requirements promptly upon the written request of Purchaser. In the event the Seller Parties enter into a New Arrangement, the Seller Parties agree to comply in all material respects with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with the New Arrangement and references herein to the Purchased Receivables and the Product Agreements shall be deemed to be references to any new purchased asset and any new license agreement, constructed under the New Arrangement, and references to Licensee or other Counterparty shall be deemed to be references to the Counterparty to such new license agreement and that other party’s Affiliates and sublicensees or licensees, as the case may be. Such New Arrangement shall also provide, for no additional consideration from Purchaser, that (i) Purchaser shall have the same rights as those acquired under the Product Agreement pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) all payments and other consideration (including any Upfront Payment and other fees) thereunder be made by the other party to such New Arrangement directly to Purchaser. Purchaser’s rights under such New Arrangement shall be to royalties from the grant of a license of the Product Related IP for Products on substantially the same terms as those in the Product Agreement that is being replaced, and not to such additional products or royalties that may be added in such New Arrangement.

 

(c)For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that either of the Seller Parties or any of their respective Affiliates engages in any commercialization, direct sale, manufacture or other transfer of the Product outside of the Seller Field (each a “Self-commercialization Event”), the definition of Royalties shall include any and all amounts received by the Seller Parties and/or any of their respective Affiliates in relation thereto and the subject matter of this Agreement shall be deemed to cover the amounts received by the Seller Parties and/or their respective Affiliates in connection therewith. In the event that the Seller Parties and/or their respective Affiliates engage in any such Self-commercialization Event, the Seller Parties and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate to amend this Agreement to the extent reasonably necessary.

 

Section 6.8 Approval of Assignments of Product Agreements.

 

(a)Promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, following receipt by either Seller Party of a request from a Counterparty for consent to assign its rights, or delegate its duties, under any of the Product Agreements, such Seller Party shall provide notice of such request to Purchaser. The Seller Parties and Purchaser shall consult with each other regarding whether to grant such consent. In any event, no Seller Party shall grant such consent without the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent may be withheld or delayed in Purchaser’s sole discretion).

 

 

22


 

(b)Neither Seller Party may assign its rights, or delegate its duties, under any of the Product Agreements or otherwise sell, transfer or grant any lien on any of the Product Related IP without the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent may be withheld or delayed in Purchaser’s sole discretion); provided, that either Seller Party may, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, assign all, but not less than all, of the Product Agreements and its interest in the Product Related IP to any Person that acquires all or substantially all of such Seller Party’s business or assets (whether through an asset purchase agreement, stock purchase agreement, merger agreement or otherwise) if the Seller Parties also assign this Agreement to such Person and such Person agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(c)Promptly, and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days, following receipt of any executed assignment of rights, or delegation of duties, under any of the Product Agreements by a Counterparty or the Seller Parties, the Seller Parties shall furnish a copy of such assignment or delegation to Purchaser.

 

Section 6.9 Notice and Acknowledgment Letter. Neither Seller Party shall, without Purchaser’s prior written consent, deliver any inconsistent directions to any Counterparty regarding the payment of the Purchased Receivables or the delivery of Royalty Reports to Purchaser of the type referred to in the Notice and Acknowledgment Letter or any similar Transaction Documents entered into from time to time.

 

Section 6.10 Public Announcements; Use of Names. No party shall, and each party shall instruct its Affiliates not to, issue a press release or other public announcement or otherwise make any public disclosure with respect to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof without the prior consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as may be required by applicable Law, by any Governmental Entity or by any self-regulatory agency or stock exchange on which such party’s securities are listed or which has regulatory or supervisory authority over such party, and to such party’s regulators and in the course of inspections, examinations or inquiries by regulatory agencies or self-regulatory organizations that have requested or required the inspection of records that contain or reflect this Agreement; it being understood that the Purchaser and the Seller Parent are each public companies and this Agreement may be filed as an exhibit to a Form 8-K or other filing by Purchaser and the Seller Parent to be made in connection with the execution of this Agreement; and it being further understood that each such party shall provide other party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the portions of any filings that relate to this Agreement, to the extent practicable.

 

Section 6.11 Taxes. Each of the Seller Parties and the Purchaser agree that for United States federal income tax purposes, (i) any and all Purchased Receivables remitted by the Seller Parties to Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.2(a) or otherwise under this Agreement shall be treated as received by such Seller Party as agent for Purchaser, and (ii) any and all amounts remitted by the Seller Parties to Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.2(a) of this Agreement shall be treated as remittances of amounts collected by such Seller Party on behalf of Purchaser. Each party hereto agrees to provide (to the extent it is legally eligible to do so) any tax forms that any other party hereto or a Counterparty may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable tax Law.

 

Section 6.12 Remittance of Previously Received Purchased Receivables; Further  Actions. From and after the Closing Date, each of Purchaser and the Seller Parties shall, at the expense of

 

23


 

the requesting party, execute and deliver such additional documents, certificates and instruments, and perform such additional acts, as may be reasonably requested and necessary or appropriate to carry out all of the provisions of this Agreement and to give full effect to and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. At the Closing, the parties agree that the amount of any payments made by or on behalf of a Counterparty on or before the Closing Date received by the Seller Parties that constitute or otherwise relate to the Purchased Receivables shall be offset against the Purchase Price by Purchaser. After the Closing, the Seller Parties shall promptly, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after the Closing Date, remit to Purchaser any payments made by or on behalf of a Counterparty on or before the Closing Date that constitute or otherwise relate to the Purchased Receivables not offset at the Closing.

Section 6.13 Intellectual Property Matters.

 

(a)Administration.

 

(i)The Seller Parties shall, in accordance with, and, subject to, the Product Agreements, (A) take such actions, and prepare, execute, deliver and file any and all agreements, documents and instruments, that are necessary or desirable to diligently preserve and maintain the Product Related IP, including (i) all such actions listed in Section 6.1.1 of the Collaboration Agreement and (ii) all such actions to prosecute and maintain in effect the Patents and cause all required maintenance fees, annuities and like payments with respect to such Patents to be paid when due, and (B) not disclaim (other than terminal disclaimers, as necessary) or abandon any of such Product Related IP, or fail to take any commercially reasonable action necessary to prevent the disclaimer or abandonment of such Product Related IP, without, in each case, Purchaser’s prior written consent. The Seller Parties shall not knowingly disclaim or abandon any of such Product Related IP, or fail to take any action necessary to prevent the disclaimer or abandonment of such Product Related IP. The Seller Parties shall, when available in respect of the Product,  obtain  Patents  and  use  commercially  reasonable  efforts  (subject  to   Section 6.13(d)) for any corrections, substitutions, reissues and reexaminations thereof, obtain patent term extensions and any other forms of patent term restoration in any country and obtain patent listings in the FDA Electronic Orange Book.

 

(ii)The Seller Parties may, and, if requested in writing by Purchaser, shall, in accordance with, and, subject to, the Product Agreements, use commercially reasonable efforts to defend and enforce any of the Product Related IP against infringement, misappropriation or interference by any other Person, and against any claims of invalidity or unenforceability in any relevant jurisdiction (including by bringing any legal action for infringement, misappropriation or interference, defending counterclaims of invalidity or unenforceability, or defending any action of any Person for declaratory judgment of non-infringement or non-interference). Neither Seller Party shall, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, consent to any compromise or settlement relating to any claim, suit or action enforcing such Product Related IP against a third party that admits the invalidity or unenforceability of such Product Related IP or requires the payment of money, or otherwise adversely affects the rights of Purchaser with respect to its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

 

 

24


 

(iii)In the event that the Seller Parties do not defend and/or enforce any of the Product Related IP against infringement, misappropriation or interference by any other Person, or against any claims of invalidity or unenforceability (or, if after initiating any such action, at any time thereafter fails to diligently and vigorously pursue such action), in each case to the full extent of the Seller Parties’ rights (in accordance with, and, subject to, the Product Agreement), the Seller Parties shall so notify Purchaser as soon as possible and in any event at least 30 days before the time limit for bringing or otherwise maintaining such action or proceeding, and the parties shall discuss in good faith the reasons for the Seller Parties’ decision within three (3) Business Days of Purchaser receiving such notice. In the event after such discussion Purchaser disagrees with the Seller Parties’ decision, then Purchaser may commence or continue such defense and/or enforcement of any of such Product Related IP against infringement, misappropriation or interference by any other Person, and against any claims of invalidity or unenforceability, and the Seller Parties shall cooperate fully with Purchaser in any such defense and enforcement, including, to the extent required, the furnishing of a power of attorney or joining such action as a necessary party, and executing all papers and instruments as reasonably requested by Purchaser. Purchaser may not enter into a settlement in connection with such defense and/or enforcement action or proceeding brought by Purchaser relating to the Product without Licensee’s written consent.

 

(b)Costs. All costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Seller Parties or Purchaser in connection with the prosecution, maintenance, defense or enforcement of the Product Related IP (including any Outstanding Litigation) shall, to the extent not reimbursed by a Counterparty pursuant to the applicable Product Agreement, be borne by the Seller Parties.

 

(c)Allocation of Proceeds. The Proceeds (if any) of any enforcement or defense of the Product Related IP, without deduction for any costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Seller Parties in connection therewith, shall belong to the Seller Parties. In the event the Proceeds include payment in respect of the Purchased Receivables and any other amounts, the parties agree to allocate the Proceeds between Purchaser and Seller in the proportion following the nature of the Proceeds and the rights under this Agreement.

 

(d)Monitoring. Purchaser shall have the right to retain, at its sole expense, outside counsel, who shall be permitted (together with Purchaser), where and when reasonably practical, to consult with the Seller Parties and their counsel regarding the prosecution, maintenance, enforcement and defense of the Product Related IP (including the Outstanding Litigation) and any actions taken or proposed to be taken by the Seller Parties in respect thereof. The Seller Parties and their counsel shall (i) give reasonable consideration to the views of Purchaser and their counsel with respect to the subject matter of this Section 6.13(d) and (ii) provide Purchaser with such information with respect to the subject matter of this Section 6.13(d) as Purchaser may, from time to time, reasonably request.

 

Section 6.14 Additional License Agreements.

 

(a)Consultation. The Seller Parties shall provide Purchaser a copy of any proposed Additional License Agreement as soon as practicable and in any event not less than ten

 

25


 

(10) Business Days prior to the date such Seller Party proposes to execute such Additional License Agreement. The Seller Parties agree to consult with Purchaser regarding any such proposed agreements and neither Seller Party shall, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, execute or agree to execute any proposed Additional License Agreement. Promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, following receipt by either Seller Party of a fully executed Additional License Agreement, such Seller Party shall furnish a copy of such agreement to Purchaser.

 

(b)Payment Direction. Any Additional License Agreement, or notice and acknowledgment letter that shall be executed in connection therewith among the applicable Counterparty, either Seller Party (or any of their Affiliates) and Purchaser, shall contain payment instructions for the payment of the Purchased Receivables to Purchaser.

 

(c)Replacement. In the event of the termination of any of the Licensee Agreements, the Seller Parties agree that Purchaser shall have the right to negotiate a replacement agreement to grant a license to the Product Related IP on substantially the same terms to those in the Licensee Agreements, which the applicable Seller Parties shall execute. Purchaser understands the risk, and agrees, that the Seller Parties have no obligation or liability to Purchaser in the event that the Product becomes obsolete or the market for the Product declines or disappears.

 

(d)Manufacture of Product by Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that either Seller Party and or their Affiliate engages in any direct sale, manufacture or other transfer of the Product (other than pursuant to a Product Agreement), the definitions of Net Sales and Royalty Payments shall include any and all amounts received by such Seller Party and/or their Affiliate in relation thereto and the subject matter of this Agreement shall be deemed to cover the amounts received by such Seller Party and/or their Affiliate in connection therewith. In the event that either Seller Party and/or their Affiliate engage in any such direct sale, marketing or transfer of the Product, the Seller Parties and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate to amend this Agreement accordingly.

 

Section 6.15 Receipt by Seller of Purchased Receivables. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, the Seller Parties agree to transfer to Purchaser (within three (3) Business Days of receipt thereof) by wire transfer in United States dollars to the deposit account set forth on Exhibit B hereto, any and all amounts received by Seller that represent the Purchased Receivables.

 

Section 6.16 Further Assurances.

 

(a)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each party hereto will use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary under applicable Laws to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents to which either Seller Party or Purchaser, as applicable, is party, including to perfect the sale, contribution, assignment, transfer, conveyance and granting of the Purchased Receivables to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement. Purchaser and the Seller Parties agree to execute and deliver such other documents, certificates, instruments, agreements and other writings and to take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary or

 

26


 

desirable, or reasonably requested by the other party hereto, in order to consummate or implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by any Transaction Document to which either Seller Party or Purchaser, as applicable, is party, and to perfect, protect, more fully evidence, vest and maintain in Purchaser good, valid and marketable rights and interests in and to the Purchased Receivables free and clear of all Adverse Claims (other than those Adverse Claims created in favor of Purchaser by the Transaction Documents) or enable Purchaser to exercise or enforce any of Purchaser’s rights under any Transaction Document to which either Seller Party or Purchaser, as applicable, is party, including following the Closing Date. If requested by Buyer, the Seller Parties will arrange a sweep account to receive the Purchased Receivables in the event the Licensee continues to pay EyePoint despite the terms of the Notice and Acknowledgment Letter.

(b)The Seller Parties, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall cooperate and provide assistance as reasonably requested by the other party hereto, at the expense of such other party hereto, in connection with any litigation, arbitration or other proceeding (whether threatened, existing, initiated or contemplated prior to, on or after the date hereof) to which the other party hereto, any of its Affiliates or controlling persons or any of their respective officers, directors, equityholders, controlling persons, managers, agents or employees is or may become a party or is or may become otherwise directly or indirectly affected or as to which any such Persons have a direct or indirect interest, in each case relating to any Transaction Document, the Purchased Receivables or the transactions described herein or therein but in all cases excluding any litigation brought by the Seller Parties against Purchaser or brought by Purchaser against the Seller Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, if and to the extent there is any overlap between the provisions of this Section 6.16(b) and the provisions of Sections 6.4, 6.6, 6.7 or 6.13, the provisions of Sections 6.4, 6.6, 6.7 and 6.13 shall govern.

 

(c)The Seller Parties shall comply with all applicable Laws with respect to the Transaction Documents to which it is party, the Product Agreements, the Purchased Receivables and all ancillary agreements related thereto, the violation of which would reasonably be expected to result in a Seller Material Adverse Effect.

 

(d)The Seller Parties shall not enter into any contract, agreement or other arrangement (whether written or oral), or exercise any of its rights under any Product Agreement in any manner, that could reasonably be expected to conflict with the Transaction Documents or serve or operate to limit or circumscribe any of Purchaser’s rights under the Transaction Documents (or Purchaser’s ability to exercise any such right).

 

(e)Subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions and securities laws, the Seller Parties shall make available such other information in such Seller Party’s possession, as Purchaser may, from time to time, reasonably request with respect to the Purchased Receivables, the Product Agreements, or the Product and the Product Related IP.

 

ARTICLE VII

 

Indemnification

 

Section 7.1 Obligation of Seller to Indemnify. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VII, the Seller Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, defend and hold harmless,

 

27


 

Purchaser, its Affiliates and their respective employees, officers, directors and agents (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”) against any and all losses, liabilities, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any third party action, suit or proceeding) and damages (collectively, Losses”) incurred by any of them, to the extent arising or resulting from any of the following:

 

(a)any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Seller Parties in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document delivered to Purchaser in connection herewith;

 

(b)any breach of any covenant of the Seller Parties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document delivered to Purchaser in connection herewith; and

(c)any obligations of the Seller Parties in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof.

 

Section 7.2  Limitations of Liability.   The liability of the Seller Parties for any Losses  for which a Purchaser Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification shall not exceed an amount equal to the Purchase Price plus, as calculated on the date of any claim for Losses, an annual rate of return of 10% (compounded annually) through such date, less the amount of all payments received by Purchaser hereunder from the Seller Parties, including indemnification payments, and any Royalty Payments actually received by Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Seller Parties shall not have any liability for indemnification under this Section 7.1(a) (other than with respect to breaches of Fundamental Representations) until the Purchaser Indemnified Party has an aggregate amount of Losses under this Agreement in excess of $500,000 (the “Deductible”) in which event the Seller Parties shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible.

 

Section 7.3 Procedures Relating to Indemnification for Third Party Claims.

 

(a)Notice of Third Party Claim. In order for a Purchaser Indemnified Party to be entitled to any indemnification under this Article VII in respect of Losses arising out of or involving a claim or demand made by any Person other than Purchaser against a Purchaser Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Purchaser Indemnified Party must notify Seller (the Indemnifying Party”) promptly in writing (including in such notice a brief description of the Third Party Claim, including damages sought or estimated, to the extent actually known or reasonably capable of estimation by the Purchaser Indemnified Party); provided, however, that the failure to promptly provide such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided under this Article VII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all documents (including court papers) received by the Purchaser Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim.

 

(b)Defense of Third Party Claims. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof, at its own expense, with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party (so long as such counsel is not reasonably objected to by the Purchaser Indemnified Party) if: (i) the Indemnifying Party acknowledges its obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Party for any

 

28


 

indemnifiable Losses resulting from such Third Party Claim; (ii) such Third Party Claim does not relate to or arise in connection with any criminal action; (iii) the Indemnifying Party makes reasonably adequate provision to satisfy the Purchaser Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend, satisfy and discharge such Third-Party Claim; (iv) no defense exists for the Purchaser Indemnified Party which is not available to the Indemnifying Party; and (v) if the named parties to such Third Party Claim (including impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Party and the Purchaser Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would not be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them (as determined by the Purchaser Indemnified Party in its reasonable discretion) (collectively, the “Defense Conditions”). If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Party for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if (i) the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third Party Claim within five (5) Business Days after receiving written notice from the Purchaser Indemnified Party that the Purchaser Indemnified Party believes the Indemnifying Party has failed to take such steps, (ii) the Indemnifying Party has not undertaken fully to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Party in respect of all indemnifiable Losses relating to the matter, or (iii) if any of the Defense Conditions cease to be satisfied for any reason, the Purchaser Indemnified Party may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith, and the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall have the right to compromise or settle such Third Party Claim with the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and, if settled with such consent, or if there is a final judgment against the Purchaser Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. In the event the Indemnifying Party has assumed control of the defense of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Purchaser Indemnified Party to participate in, but not control, the defense of any such action or suit through counsel chosen by the Purchaser Indemnified Party; provided that such counsel is not reasonably objected to by the Indemnifying Party and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Purchaser Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Purchaser Indemnified Party in the defense of a Third Party Claim for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during the period prior to the time the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall have notified the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim).

 

(c)Cooperation. The parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of any Third Party Claim, with such cooperation to include (i) the retention of and the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim and (ii) the making available of employees on a mutually convenient basis for providing additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability (if any) in connection with such Third Party Claim and which (i) does not include a statement as to or admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any such Purchaser Indemnified Party, (ii) includes an

 

29


 

unconditional release of such Purchaser Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Third Party Claim and (iii) does not provide for injunctive relief or other relief relating to such Purchaser Indemnified Party other than monetary damages.

 

Section 7.4 Procedures Relating to Indemnification for Other Claims. In order for a Purchaser Indemnified Party to be entitled to any indemnification under this Article VII in respect of Losses that do not arise out of or involve a Third Party Claim, the Purchaser Indemnified Party must notify the Indemnifying Party promptly in writing (including in such notice a brief description of the claim for indemnification and the Loss, including damages sought or estimated, to the extent actually known or reasonably capable of estimation by the Purchaser Indemnified Party); provided, however, that the failure to promptly provide such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided under this Article VII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.

Section 7.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date solely for purposes of this Article VII indefinitely.

 

Section 7.6 Exclusive Remedy.
