respect to any Licensed Product (which assignment or right of reference may also be provided directly to Gilead prior to any such termination), but solely to the extent such assignment and transfer, or right of reference, would be required of Gilead under Section 15.6, and (ii) the assignment of, or a freely sublicensable exclusive license to, all intellectual property (including Patents) Controlled by such Sublicensee that covers or embodies a Licensed Product or its respective use, manufacture, sale, or importation and was conceived, discovered, developed or otherwise made by or on behalf of such Sublicensee during the exercise of its rights or fulfillment of its obligations pursuant to such Sublicense Agreement, but solely to the extent such assignment or exclusive license would be required of Gilead under Section 15.6(a). Each Sublicense Agreement shall be subject to the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement.

7.3 Distributorships and Co-Promotion Rights.

(a) Distributorships. Gilead shall have the right to appoint its Affiliates, and Gilead and its Affiliates shall have the right, in their sole discretion, to appoint any other Persons, in any country(ies) in the Territory in accordance with Gilead’s typical practices for its proprietary products, to distribute, market, and sell Licensed Products in the Territory. If Gilead or any of its Affiliates appoints such a Person and such Person is not an Affiliate of Gilead, that Person shall be a “Distributor” for purposes of this Agreement.

If the 7.6 Acquiring Party provides notice as described in clause (A) of the preceding sentence, the 7.6 Acquiring Party and its Affiliates, if applicable, will use […***…] to divest such rights to such 7.6 Acquired Product within […***…] after provision of such notice, and if the 7.6 Acquiring Party provides notice as described in clause (B) of the preceding sentence, the 7.6 Acquiring Party, and its Affiliates if applicable, will use […***…] to cease such […***…] of such 7.6 Acquired Product as soon as reasonably practicable, giving due consideration to […***…]. If the 7.6 Acquiring Party or its Affiliates (x) provides notice under clause (A) of the second preceding sentence but is unable to divest such rights to a 7.6 Acquired Product within the […***…] period specified above despite the use of […***…] or (y) provides notice under clause (B) of the second preceding sentence but is unable to cease such […***…] despite the use of […***…], then in either such case such rights to the 7.6 Acquired Product will be included (or in the case of a 7.6 Acquisition Transaction by Galapagos or its Affiliates, at Gilead’s sole option will be included) as if it were a “Licensed Product” under this Agreement with respect to […***…]. In the case of a 7.6 Acquisition Transaction by Galapagos or its Affiliates, if Gilead does not opt to include the 7.6 Acquired Product as a “Licensed Product” under the previous sentence, then Galapagos shall have the right to […***…] such 7.6 Acquired Product, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.6.

46


Amended and Restated License and Collaboration Agreement

 

(i) Share of Operating Profits and Operating Losses. Galapagos and Gilead shall share all Operating Profits and all Operating Losses (as applicable) for each Licensed Product and Gilead Combination Products for each country in the Shared Territory on the basis of fifty percent (50%) to Gilead and fifty percent (50%) to Galapagos.

(ii) Calculation and Payment.

(A) Within […***…] Business Days after the end of each calendar quarter beginning with the calendar quarter in which the JSC approves the applicable Shared Territory Commercialization Plan and Budget, each Party shall provide to the other Party (using the form to be attached to the applicable Co-Commercialization Agreement) in reasonable detail of any Costs of Goods Sold for the Shared Territory, its Net Sales and any Joint Commercialization Costs incurred by such Party in such calendar quarter for each Licensed Product and Gilead Combination Product. Any subsequent adjustments made to the figures reported by each Party pursuant to the foregoing sentence will be reflected in the next quarter’s profit share calculation and invoice.

(B) Within […***…] Business Days after the end of each calendar quarter beginning with the calendar quarter in which the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product or Gilead Combination Product occurs in the Shared Territory, Gilead shall report to the finance officer designated by Galapagos and the finance officer designated by Gilead (the “Finance Officers”) the Parties’ Net Sales in the Shared Territory, the Parties’ Cost of Goods Sold for the Shared Territory and the Parties’ Joint Commercialization Costs incurred in such calendar quarter for each Licensed Product or Gilead Combination Product. Each such report shall specify in reasonable detail (1) for each country in the Shared Territory, the gross amount billed or invoiced for commercial sales of each Licensed Product or Gilead Combination Product, the Net Sales, and all deductions allowed in the calculation of such Net Sales and (2) all expenses included in such Cost of Goods Sold and Joint Commercialization Costs.

(C) If requested by a Party, the other Party shall promptly provide any invoices or other supporting documentation for any payments to a Third Party that individually exceed […***…] dollars or with respect to which documentation is otherwise reasonably requested. Each report prepared in accordance with this Section shall be prepared using the form to be attached to the applicable Co-Commercialization Agreement.

(D) The Finance Officers shall compare each Party’s Joint Commercialization Costs against the budget for the applicable activities assigned to such Party in the Shared Territory Commercialization Plan and Budget. The Finance Officers shall confer and, subject to Section 8.9(a)(ii)(E), agree in writing on a consolidated financial statement setting forth the Operating Profit or Operating Loss for such calendar quarter for such Licensed Product or Gilead Combination Product in the Shared Territory based on the numbers reported by the Parties and calculating each Party’s share of such Operating Profit or Operating Loss within […***…] Business Days after receipt of the consolidated report from Gilead.

(E) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is a cost overrun by a Party that, in the aggregate for the then-current calendar year, is greater than […***…] percent ([…***…]%) of the aggregate amounts budgeted for such Party’s activities for the calendar quarter in the Shared Territory Commercialization Plan and Budget, or the reports contain items not in the Shared Territory Commercialization Plan and Budget, the Finance Officers shall deduct any amounts in excess of such […***…] percent ([…***…]%) or related to items not in the Shared Territory Commercialization Plan and Budget (such that the incurring Party bears the excess), and thereafter until the end of the then-current calendar year shall not include any further overrun amounts in such Party’s share of the Joint Commercialization Costs.

 

47


Amended and Restated License and Collaboration Agreement

 

(1) If a Party reasonably believes that it will exceed its budgeted Joint Commercialization Costs, it shall promptly notify the other Party. The Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts, as appropriate, to mitigate any cost overrun.

(2) The foregoing shall be without limitation to the Parties’ other rights and remedies.

(F) Within […***…] days after the Operating Profit or Operating Loss are finally determined, (i) Galapagos or Gilead, as applicable, shall make a payment to Gilead or Galapagos respectively, as applicable, so that each of Galapagos and Gilead has been compensated for its respective share of such Operating Profits or has borne its respective share of such Operating Loss in such calendar quarter, and (ii) the Party to receive any such payment shall invoice the other Party for such amounts, provided that, where applicable, any such invoices shall be separated into one invoice covering all jurisdictions for which the paying Party is the Co-Commercialization Selling Party and one invoice covering all jurisdictions for which the paying Party is the Co-Commercialization Non-Selling Party; provided, however, that in the event of any disagreement with respect to the calculation of such payment, any undisputed portion of such payment shall be paid in accordance with the foregoing timetable and the remaining, disputed portion shall be paid within […***…] days after the date on which Galapagos and Gilead, using good faith efforts, resolve the dispute.

(G) In addition, following the Amendment Effective Date, each Party shall consider in good faith other reasonable procedures proposed by the other Party for sharing financial information in order to permit each Party to close its books periodically in a timely manner. For the avoidance of doubt, no cost or expense shall be counted more than once in calculating the Cost of Goods Sold for the Shared Territory or Joint Commercialization Costs, even if such cost or expense falls into more than one of the cost categories that comprise the Cost of Goods Sold for the Shared Territory or Joint Commercialization Costs.

(iii) Consistency with Accounting Treatment. All calculations of Joint Commercialization Costs and Operating Profit and Operating Loss hereunder shall be made in accordance with GAAP, including the provisions thereof regarding expense recognition, as applied by Galapagos and Gilead consistently with their application in their respective financial reporting. For any costs and expenses charged to the other Party that are to be used in the calculation of Operating Profit and Operating Loss, if they include a mark-up on the applicable cost, the Parties will confirm the manner for treating the mark-up in such calculation so as to ensure the intended 50%/50% sharing of the Operating Profit (or Loss). Any amounts paid by one Party to the other Party for services or supply activities in connection with the Co-Commercialization will be submitted by the Party that made such payments and not by the Party providing the applicable supply or service, provided that the Party providing the applicable supply or service reports the amount of mark-up included, if any.

(iv) The FTE Rates for certain categories of personnel (including individual contractors) that participate in the Co-Commercialization under a Co-Commercialization Agreement and the method for determining FTE Rates for other personnel shall be set forth in the applicable Co-Commercialization Agreement. Such FTE Rates shall be increased annually by […***…] percent ([…***…]%), with each annual adjustment effective as of January 1 of each calendar year, with the first such annual adjustment to be made as of January 1, 2020. For the avoidance of doubt, the FTE Rates in any country shall be the same for each Party.

(v) If requested by either Party, the Parties shall work together in good faith to reconcile Net Sales between the Licensed Territory and the Shared Territory arising out of the importation of Licensed Products or Gilead Combination Products into or out of the Shared Territory, to the extent reasonably feasible based on available data (e.g., IQVIA). Each such reconciliation may be requested one (1) time for a calendar year, within […***…] days after the end of such calendar year. The Parties will reasonably adjust the royalties (for the Licensed Territory) and Operating Profit (or Loss) (for the Shared Territory) for such calendar year to reflect such reconciliation; provided that, at the request of either Party, the Parties will discuss in good faith the extent to which such adjustment would be reasonable given any limitations in available data.

8.11 Taxes

(a) Taxes on Income. Each Party shall be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes imposed on its share of income arising directly or indirectly from the collaborative efforts of the Parties under this Agreement.

(b) Tax Cooperation. The Parties agree to cooperate with one another and use reasonable efforts to avoid or reduce tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of royalties, milestone payments, and other payments made between the Parties under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Galapagos shall provide Gilead any tax forms and other information that may be reasonably necessary in order to support its claim of no-withholding or reduced withholding based on an applicable treaty. Each Party shall provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by Applicable Law, of withholding taxes, value added taxes, or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such withholding tax or value added tax.

(c) Payment of Tax. It is understood and agreed between the Parties that any payments made by Gilead under this Agreement are exclusive of any value added tax (“VAT”) or similar tax imposed upon such payments. Where VAT is properly added to a payment made under this Agreement, Gilead will pay the amount of VAT only on receipt of a valid tax invoice issued in accordance with Applicable Law. In addition, to the extent Gilead is required by Applicable Law to deduct and withhold taxes on any payment to Galapagos, Gilead shall pay the amounts of such taxes to the proper Governmental Authority in a timely manner and promptly (within […***…] days of payment) transmit to Galapagos an official tax certificate or other evidence of such withholding sufficient to enable Galapagos to claim credit for such payment of taxes.

8.12 Foreign Exchange. All payments shall be paid in US Dollars. For purpose of computing such payments, the Net Sales of Licensed Products in countries other than the United States shall be converted into US Dollars in accordance with Gilead’s standard practices used in preparing its audited financial statements for the applicable quarter. Gilead’s standard worldwide currency conversion methodology on the Effective Date is […***…]. Gilead shall inform Galapagos of any changes to its standard worldwide currency conversion methodology prior to any such changes becoming effective.

8.13 Late Payments. If a Party does not receive payment of any sum due to it on or before the due date therefor, simple interest shall thereafter accrue on the sum due to such Party from the due date until the date of payment at a per-annum rate of […***…] percent ([…***…]%) above the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, or the maximum rate allowable by Applicable Law, whichever is less.

8.14 Financial Records; Audits. Each Party and its Affiliates shall use all reasonable efforts to maintain complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to permit the other Party to confirm the accuracy of the amount to be reimbursed, pursuant to this Article 8, with respect to Development Costs, Joint Commercialization Costs, or other amounts to be reimbursed, credited, offset or shared hereunder incurred or generated (as applicable) by such Party’s or Affiliate’s achievement of sales milestones, royalty payments and other compensation or reimbursement payable under this Agreement. Upon reasonable prior notice, such records shall be open during regular business hours for a period of […***…] years from the creation of individual records for examination at the auditing Party’s expense, and not more often than once each calendar year, by an independent certified public accountant selected by the auditing Party and reasonably acceptable to the audited Party or Affiliate for the sole purpose of verifying for the auditing Party the accuracy of the financial statements or reports or sales milestone notices furnished by the audited Party or Affiliate pursuant to this Agreement or of any payments made, or required to be made, by or to the audited Party or Affiliate to the other pursuant to this Agreement. Any such auditor shall not disclose the audited Party’s or Affiliate’s confidential information to the auditing Party, but shall, instead, report that there was or was not a discrepancy uncovered by the audit and if such a discrepancy was uncovered, the amount and direction of it. Any amounts shown to be owed but unpaid, or overpaid and in need of reimbursement, shall be paid or refunded (as the case may be) within […***…] days after the accountant’s report, plus interest (as set forth in Section 8.13) from the original due date (unless challenged in good faith by the audited Party, in which case any undisputed portion shall be paid in accordance with the foregoing timetable, any dispute with respect to such challenge shall be resolved in accordance with Article 14, any remaining disputed portion shall be paid within […***…] days after resolution of the dispute, and interest shall not accrue with respect to the disputed portion during the period of time the dispute is being resolved). The auditing Party shall bear the full cost of such audit unless such audit reveals an overpayment to, or an underpayment by, the audited Party or Affiliate that resulted from a discrepancy in a report that the audited Party or Affiliate provided to the other Party during the applicable audit period, which underpayment or overpayment was more than […***…] percent ([…***…]%) of the amount set forth in such report, in which case the audited Party or Affiliate shall bear the full cost of such audit. Each Party, at the request of the other Party, shall make available to the other Party the results of any audit performed by the non-requesting Party on such non-requesting Party’s Sublicensees hereunder.

(b) Enforcement Rights. Without the prior written consent of the other Party, neither Party shall have a right to bring suit or other action to abate an infringement of a Galapagos Patent (excluding the […***…]), Joint Patent or Gilead Foreground Patent (collectively, the “Program Patents”), which infringement is not a Product Infringement. Gilead shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to bring a suit or other action to abate any Product Infringement, under the Program Patents (other than the […***…]). With respect to the […***…], Galapagos shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to bring a suit or other action to abate any Product Infringement. Galapagos shall cooperate fully as may be reasonably requested by Gilead, upon reasonable notice, to maintain such suit or other action, by executing and making available such documents as Gilead may reasonably request, and by performing all other acts which are or may become reasonably necessary to vest in Gilead the right to institute any such suit or other action, including by being joined in such action and using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any necessary joinder or cooperation in any such suit or other action from any applicable Third Parties. Gilead shall not enter into any settlement or transaction agreement with a Third Party that reduces the scope of or admits invalidity or unenforceability of any Program Patent claims in a manner that will cause material harm to Galapagos, without the prior written consent of Galapagos. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Gilead does not inform Galapagos that it intends to take such measures with respect to such Product Infringement within […***…] days after Gilead’s receipt of a notice of infringement pursuant to Section 9.3(a), then Galapagos will have the second right, but not the obligation, to initiate such Product Infringement action or take other measures.

(c) Gilead shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to bring a suit or other action to abate any infringement, under the Gilead Combination Patents. To the extent such action is a Product Infringement, Galapagos shall cooperate fully as may be reasonably requested by Gilead, upon reasonable notice, to maintain such suit or other action, by executing and making available such documents as Gilead may reasonably request, and by performing all other acts which are or may become reasonably necessary to vest in Gilead the right to institute any such suit or other action, including by being joined to such action if so requested and by using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any necessary joinder or cooperation in any such suit or other action from any applicable Third Parties.

(d) Settlement. Without the prior written consent of the other Party, neither Party shall settle any claim, suit or action that it brought under Section 9.3(b) involving Program Patents in any manner that would materially limit the rights or materially expand the obligations of the other Party under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or would expressly admit any liability by the other Party.

(e) Expenses and Recoveries. A Party bringing a claim, suit or action under Section 9.3(b) against any person or entity engaged in Product Infringement of the Galapagos Patents shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred by such Party as a result of such claim, suit or action, except that where Gilead requests Galapagos to bring suit under the […***…], and Galapagos agrees to do so, then Gilead shall be responsible for all costs and expenses of any such suit or other action. If such Party recovers monetary damages from such Third Party in such suit or action, such recovery shall be allocated first to the reimbursement of any expenses incurred by the Parties in such litigation, and any remaining amount shall be distributed as follows: […***…].

9.4 Defense of Program Patents. To the extent any Party receives notice by counterclaim, or otherwise, alleging the invalidity or unenforceability of any Program Patent, it shall bring such fact to the attention of the other Party, including all relevant information related to such claim. The Parties, through the JSC, shall discuss such claim. Where such allegation is made in a Inter Partes Review, Post Grant Review, interference, or other patent office proceeding other than an opposition in the European Patent

 

54


Amended and Restated License and Collaboration Agreement

 

Office, or where such allegation is made in a counterclaim to a suit or other action brought under Section 9.3, the provisions of Section 9.3 as applicable to a Product Infringement shall apply, and in the case of an opposition in the European Patent Office, the provisions of Section 9.2 shall apply. In the event Gilead does not elect to defend an action with respect to any Program Patent under this Section 9.4, it shall so notify Galapagos in writing, and Galapagos shall have the right to so defend such action, at Galapagos’ expense. Each Party shall provide to the Party defending any such rights under this Section 9.4 all reasonable assistance in such enforcement, at such defending Party’s request and expense. The defending Party shall keep the other Party regularly informed of the status and progress of such efforts, and shall reasonably consider the other Party’s comments on any such efforts.

9.5 Defense of Gilead Combination Patents. To the extent any Party receives notice by counterclaim, or otherwise, alleging the invalidity or unenforceability of any Gilead Combination Patent, it shall bring such fact to the attention of the other Party, including all relevant information related to such claim. The Parties, through the JSC, shall discuss such claim. Gilead shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to respond to any such challenge. Galapagos shall provide Gilead all reasonable assistance in such enforcement, at Gilead’s request and expense. Gilead shall keep Galapagos regularly informed of the status and progress of such efforts.

9.6 Defense of Infringement Actions. During the Term, each Party shall bring to the attention of the other Party all information regarding potential infringement or any claim of infringement of Third Party intellectual property rights in connection with the development, manufacture, use, importation, offer for sale, or sale of Licensed Products in the Territory. The Parties shall discuss such information and decide how to handle such matter, with Gilead having final authority to decide in the event of a disagreement. Subject to Article 11, Gilead shall have the first right to defend any such action that relates to a Licensed Product or Gilead Combination Product, and otherwise, each Party shall be solely responsible for defending any action, suit, or other proceeding brought against it alleging infringement of Third Party intellectual property rights in connection with its activities under this Agreement, and the other Party shall reasonably cooperate with such Party (including by being joined to such action if so requested and by using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any necessary joinder or cooperation in any such suit or other action from any applicable Third Parties) in connection with defense of such action, suit or proceeding, and if an action, suit or other proceeding is brought against both Parties, then Gilead shall be responsible for defending such action, suit or other proceeding. This Section 9.6 shall not be interpreted as placing on either Party a duty of inquiry regarding Third Party intellectual property rights.

9.7 Patent Marking. Gilead shall, and shall require its Affiliates and Sublicensees to, use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to mark Licensed Products sold by it hereunder (in a reasonable manner consistent with industry custom and practice) with appropriate patent numbers or indicia to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, in those countries in which such markings or such notices impact recoveries of damages or equitable remedies available with respect to infringements of patents.

9.8 Personnel Obligations. Prior to beginning work under this Agreement relating to any research, preclinical development, Development or Commercialization of a Licensed Compound or Licensed Product, each employee of Gilead or Galapagos or of either Party’s respective Affiliates shall be bound by non-disclosure and invention assignment obligations which are consistent with the obligations of Gilead or Galapagos, as appropriate, in this Article 9, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, including: (a) promptly reporting any invention, discovery, process or other intellectual property right; (b) assigning to Gilead or Galapagos, as appropriate, all of his or her right, title and interest in and to any invention, discovery, process or other intellectual property right; (c) in the case of employees working in the United States, taking actions reasonably necessary to secure patent protection; (d) performing all acts and signing, executing, acknowledging and delivering any and all documents required for effecting the obligations and purposes of this Agreement; and (e) abiding by the obligations of confidentiality and non-use set forth in Article 12.

All uses of the Marks shall be reviewed by the JCC and shall comply with Applicable Law (including those laws and regulations particularly applying to the proper use and designation of trademarks in the applicable countries). Neither Party shall, without the other Party’s prior written consent, use any trademarks or house marks of the other Party (including the other Party’s corporate name), or marks confusingly similar thereto, in connection with such Party’s marketing or promotion of Licensed Products under this Agreement, except as may be expressly authorized in connection with activities under Section 5.2 or any Co-Commercialization Agreement and except to the extent required to comply with Applicable Law, Gilead shall own all Marks with respect to the Licensed Products.

9.10 Confirmatory Patent Licenses. Each Party shall, if so requested by the other Party, promptly enter into confirmatory license agreements, in a form consistent with the terms of this Agreement and reasonably acceptable to the Parties, for purposes of recording the licenses granted under this Agreement with patent offices in the Territory. Each Party shall bear its own filing costs and any costs of outside counsel or experts required with respect to such recordations.

9.11 Patent Committee. Promptly (but no later than […***…] days) after the Effective Date, the Parties will establish a patent committee (the “Patent Committee”). The purpose of the Patent Committee is to facilitate the discussion and coordination of (a) strategies regarding intellectual property, and (b) prosecution and maintenance, enforcement and defense matters in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement. The Patent Committee will meet on a quarterly basis or as otherwise agreed by the Parties.

(a) Title; Encumbrances. Galapagos owns or has a valid right to use the Galapagos Technology existing as of the Effective Date, including the Existing Galapagos Patents, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not constitute a representation or warranty of non-infringement of a Third Party’s intellectual property rights. Galapagos has the right to grant the licenses to Gilead as purported to be granted pursuant to this Agreement.

Galapagos has properly recorded in the relevant U.S. and foreign patent offices the assignments, or other necessary documents, supporting its legal title to the Galapagos Patents. To the Galapagos’ Knowledge, Galapagos and its Affiliates have presented, or will present prior to the pertinent patent office deadlines, all relevant references, documents, or information of which it and the inventors are aware to the relevant patent examiner at the pertinent patent office, in connection with the prosecution of the pending patent applications included in the Existing Galapagos Patents.

(c) To Galapagos’ Knowledge, there are no claims, judgments, or settlements against, or amounts with respect thereto, owed by Galapagos or any of its Affiliates relating to the Existing Regulatory Documentation, the Existing Galapagos Patents, or the Galapagos Know-How. No claim or litigation has been brought or threatened in writing by any Person against Galapagos alleging, and Galapagos has no Knowledge of any reasonable basis for any such claim or allegation, whether or not asserted, that (i) the Galapagos Patents or the Galapagos Know-How are invalid or unenforceable, or (ii) the Existing Regulatory Documentation, the Galapagos Patents, or the Galapagos Know-How, or the disclosing, copying, making, assigning, or licensing of the Existing Regulatory Documentation, the Galapagos Patents, or the Galapagos Know-How, or the Development, Manufacture, Commercialization or other Exploitation of the Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products as contemplated herein, does or will violate, infringe, misappropriate or otherwise conflict or interfere with, any Patent or other intellectual property or proprietary right of any Third Party.

At its option, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Claim for which indemnity is being sought by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within […***…] days after receipt of the notice of the Claim.

The Indemnified Party may participate in and monitor such defense with counsel of its own choosing at its sole expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume and conduct the defense of the Claim with counsel of its choice.

If the Indemnifying Party does not assume and conduct the defense of the Claim as provided above, (a) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party may deem reasonably appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), and (b) the Indemnified Party reserves any right it may have under this Article 11 to obtain indemnification from the Indemnifying Party.

Nothing contained in this Section is intended, or shall be construed, to limit either Party’s indemnity obligations.

(e) Automobile Liability insurance for bodily injury, property damage and automobile contractual liability covering all owned, hired and non-owned autos with a combined single limit of liability for each accident of not less than $[…***…].

If, at any time during the Term (i) a case is commenced by or against either Party under Title 11, United States Code, as amended, or analogous provisions of Applicable Law outside the United States (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and, in the event of an involuntary case under the Bankruptcy Code, such case is not dismissed within […***…] days after the commencement thereof, (ii) either Party files for or is subject to the institution of bankruptcy, liquidation or receivership proceedings (other than a case under the Bankruptcy Code), (iii) either Party assigns all or a substantial portion of its assets for the benefit of creditors, (iv) a receiver or custodian is appointed for either Party’s business, or (v) a substantial portion of either Party’s business is subject to attachment or similar process; then, in any such case ((i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v)), the other Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the extent permitted under Applicable Law.

13.5 Effects of Termination of the Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement with respect to one or more countries of the Territory or in its entirety (the “Terminated Regions”; with the entire Territory being the Terminated Regions in the event of termination of this Agreement in its entirety), the following shall apply with respect to the Terminated Regions (in addition to any other rights and obligations under this Article 13 or otherwise under this Agreement with respect to such termination):

(a) Licenses. The licenses granted in Article 7 shall terminate with respect to the Terminated Regions, except that limited license rights shall remain in effect in the Terminated Region(s) solely for the limited purpose of allowing Gilead to Develop or Manufacture Licensed Product(s) (including any intermediate thereof or any active pharmaceutical ingredient or other material contained therein) in the Terminated Region(s) for sale or distribution thereof in any country which has not been terminated. Subject to the foregoing, effective upon the effective date of termination of this Agreement with respect to any Terminated Region, Gilead hereby grants to Galapagos, effective only upon such termination, an exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-bearing license, with the right to grant multiple tiers of sublicenses, under (i) the Gilead Foreground Know-How and any Patent claiming Gilead Foreground Know-How, (ii) the Joint Patents, and (iii) any other Patents Controlled by Gilead that, absent a license, as such Reversion Product as it exists in the applicable Terminated Region as of the applicable date of termination, would be infringed by the manufacture, use, sale or import of a Reversion Product in a Terminated Region, (the “Gilead Background Patents”) as such Patents and interests in such Patents exist as of the effective date of termination, to research, develop, make, have made, use, import, export, offer for sale, and sell Reversion Products in the Field in the applicable Terminated Regions. For clarity, the foregoing license under Gilead Background Patents extends solely to those elements of a Reversion Product that incorporated as of the Termination Date any technology claimed in the applicable Patent and shall not be construed as a right to modify such elements or to incorporate additional technology that would infringe a Gilead Background Patent. The foregoing license shall […***…].

(b) Marks. Gilead shall assign to Galapagos all right, title and interest in and to those Marks used exclusively with Reversion Products and used exclusively in the Terminated Regions (excluding any such Marks that include, in whole or part, any corporate name or logo of Gilead or its Affiliate or Sublicensee).

(c) Regulatory Materials. Gilead shall grant to Galapagos a right of reference under all Regulatory Materials and Regulatory Approvals for Reversion Products in the Terminated Regions that are Controlled by Gilead or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, unless and until assigned to Galapagos pursuant to any Transition Agreement.

(d) Conduct During Termination Notice Period.

(i) Following any notice of termination permitted under this Article 13 other than any termination pursuant to Section 13.4, during any applicable termination notice period (the applicable “Termination Notice Period”), each Party shall continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement, including performing all activities allocated to it pursuant to the Development Plan and Shared Territory Commercialization Plan and Budget, respectively, then in effect in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In such circumstances, each Party shall also continue to bear its share of all Development Costs and Joint Commercialization Costs in each case incurred during the Termination Notice Period.

(ii) During the applicable Termination Notice Period, neither Party shall […***…].

(e) Transition Agreement. In connection with the termination of this Agreement in its entirety or with respect to one or more countries, the Parties shall enter into a written agreement (the “Transition Agreement”) that would effectuate the terms and conditions of this Section 13.5(e) and would include other reasonable terms and conditions, including terms allocating costs and expenses, describing the Parties’ indemnification obligations, setting forth the Parties’ obligations with respect to unauthorized sales, and setting forth other coordination obligations. If, despite such efforts, the Parties are unable to agree upon such terms and conditions within […***…] days from the effective date of the termination, either Party may refer the dispute for resolution by arbitration in accordance with Section 14.2, and the arbitrator shall have the authority to require the Parties to execute a Transition Agreement in the form approved by the arbitrator.

(i) Transition Assistance. The Transition Agreement shall require Gilead to, […***…], provide reasonable consultation and assistance for a period of no more than […***…] days for the purpose of disclosing and providing to Galapagos, all […***…] that is relevant to the Reversion Products and the applicable Terminated Regions, and, at Galapagos’ request, all then-existing commercial arrangements to the extent relating solely and specifically to the Reversion Products and the applicable Terminated Regions that Gilead is able, using reasonable commercial efforts, to disclose and provide to Galapagos, in each case, to the extent reasonably necessary or useful for Galapagos to commence or continue researching, Developing, Manufacturing or Commercializing the Reversion Products with respect to the applicable Terminated Regions. The foregoing shall include assigning, upon request of Galapagos, any agreements with Third Party suppliers or vendors to the extent they solely and specifically cover the supply or sale of Reversion Products in applicable Terminated Regions. If any such contract between Gilead and a Third Party is not assignable to Galapagos (whether by such contract’s terms or because such contract does not relate specifically to Reversion Products or the Terminated Regions) but is otherwise reasonably necessary or useful for Galapagos to commence or continue researching, Developing, Manufacturing, or Commercializing Reversion Products with respect to the Terminated Regions, then Gilead shall reasonably cooperate with Galapagos in Galapagos’ efforts to obtain from such Third Party the assignment of such contract or of that portion of such contract that solely relates to researching, Developing, Manufacturing, or Commercializing Reversion Products with respect to the Terminated Regions. Unless and until the necessary Third Party Manufacturing agreements are assigned to Galapagos pursuant to the preceding sentences, or if Gilead Manufactures the Reversion Products itself (and thus there is no contract to assign), the Transition Agreement shall require Gilead to supply such bulk finished Reversion Product, as applicable, to Galapagos for a reasonable period (not to exceed […***…] months) to enable Galapagos to establish an alternate, validated source of supply for the applicable Reversion Products. The cost to Galapagos for such supply shall be the cost of goods for such Reversion Products calculated in accordance with industry standards (excluding […***…]) plus […***…] percent […***…]%.

(ii) Regulatory Materials. The Transition Agreement shall require Gilead to transfer and assign to Galapagos all Regulatory Materials and Regulatory Approvals in and for the benefit of the Terminated Regions solely relating to Reversion Products that are owned by Gilead or its Affiliates. The Transition Agreement shall contain terms governing the coordination of the Party’s ongoing regulatory responsibilities with respect to Licensed Products.

(f) Third-Party Agreements. To the extent that any payments would be owed by Gilead to any Third Parties (including royalties, milestones and other amounts) under any Third Party agreements that are applicable to the grant to Galapagos of any (sub)license, right of reference or other right provided in this Section 13.5 or the Transition Agreement, or that are applicable to the exercise by Galapagos or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees of any sublicense or other right with respect thereto, Gilead shall notify Galapagos of the existence and anticipated amounts of such payments and Galapagos shall have the right either to decline such (sub)license, right of reference or other right provided in this Section 13.5 or the Transition Agreement or to take the same, in which case Galapagos agrees to comply with any obligations under such agreements of Gilead that apply to Galapagos and of which Galapagos was informed by Gilead and to make such payments.

(g) Remaining Inventories.

(i) Gilead shall be entitled, during the […***…] days following termination of this Agreement, to finish any work-in-progress and to sell in the Terminated Regions any inventory of Licensed Product that remains on hand as of the effective date of the termination. Gilead shall pay Galapagos the royalties applicable to such sales in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(ii) At any time within […***…] days after the effective date of termination with respect to any Terminated Region(s), Galapagos shall have the right, upon written notification to Gilead, to purchase from Gilead any or all of the inventory of Reversion Products held by Gilead with respect to such Terminated Region(s) as of the date of such notice solely for distribution in the Terminated Region(s) and not for distribution in other countries (that are not committed to be supplied to any Third Party or Sublicensee as of such date) at a price equal to the cost of goods for such Reversion Products calculated in accordance with industry standards (excluding […***…]) plus […***…] percent […***…]%.

13.6 Other Remedies. Termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason shall not release either Party from any liability or obligation that already has accrued prior to such expiration or termination, nor affect the survival of any provision hereof to the extent it is expressly stated to survive such termination. Termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason shall not constitute a waiver or release of, or otherwise be deemed to prejudice or adversely affect, any rights, remedies or claims, whether for damages or otherwise, that a Party may have hereunder or that may arise out of or in connection with such termination or expiration.

13.7 Rights in Bankruptcy. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement by Galapagos and Gilead are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, licenses of right to “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Parties agree that each Party, as licensee of certain rights under this Agreement, shall retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Parties further agree that, in the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against a Party (such Party, the “Bankrupt Party”) under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the other Party shall be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any intellectual property licensed to such other Party and all embodiments of such intellectual property, which, if not already in such other Party’s possession, shall be promptly delivered to it (a) upon any such commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding upon such other Party’s written request therefor, unless the Bankrupt Party elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement or (b) if not delivered under clause (a), following the rejection of this Agreement by the Bankrupt Party upon written request therefor by the other Party. The Parties acknowledge and agree that of the milestones and royalties to be paid pursuant to Article 8, only the sales milestones contained in Sections 8.2(c) and the royalties contained in Section 8.3 shall constitute royalties within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code § 365(n) with respect to the licenses of intellectual property hereunder.

13.8 Survival. Termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not affect rights or obligations of the Parties under this Agreement that have accrued prior to the date of termination or expiration of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the following provisions shall survive and apply after expiration or termination of this Agreement in its entirety: Article 1, Article 11, Article 12, Article 14, Article 15, Sections 3.7, 4.8, 8.5, 8.7, 8.9, 8.11, 8.12, 8.13, 8.14, 8.15, 9.1, 10.5, 10.6, 13.5, 13.6, 13.7, and 13.8. In addition, the other applicable provisions of Article 8 shall survive such expiration or termination of this Agreement in its entirety to the extent required to make final reimbursements, reconciliations or other payments incurred or accrued prior to the date of termination or expiration. For any surviving provisions requiring action or decision by a Committee or an Executive Officer, each Party will appoint representatives to act as its Committee members or Executive Officer, as applicable. All provisions not surviving in accordance with the foregoing shall terminate upon expiration or termination of this Agreement and be of no further force and effect. If this Agreement is terminated with respect to one or more Terminated Regions but not in its entirety, then following such termination the foregoing provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to the Terminated Regions (to the extent they would survive and apply in the event the Agreement expires or is terminated in its entirety), and all provisions not surviving in accordance with the foregoing shall terminate upon termination of this Agreement with respect to the applicable Terminated Region(s) and be of no further force and effect (and for the avoidance of doubt all provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to any countries that are not terminated).

ARTICLE 14

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

14.1 Disputes. It is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of disputes arising under this Agreement in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation and without resort to litigation. In the event of any disputes, controversies or differences which may arise between the Parties out of or in relation to or in connection with this Agreement (including disputes relating to the matters that can be referred to the Executive Officers pursuant to Section 2.4(b) but excluding any other disputes arising from a Committee), including any alleged failure to perform, or breach, of this Agreement, or any issue relating to the interpretation or application of this Agreement, then upon the request of either Party by written notice, the Parties agree to meet and discuss in good faith a possible resolution thereof, which good faith efforts shall include at least one in-person meeting between the Executive Officers of each Party. If the matter is not resolved within […***…] days following the written request for discussions, either Party may then invoke the provisions of Section 14.2 or Section 14.9, as appropriate, provided, however, that the provisions of Section 14.2 shall not be invoked and rather Galapagos shall have the right to invoke its decision-making authority if the dispute relates to the preparation, filing, prosecution or maintenance of the Galapagos Patents pursuant to Section 9.2(a). For the avoidance of doubt, any disputes, controversies or differences arising from a Committee pursuant to Article 2 shall be resolved solely in accordance with Section 2.4.

14.2 Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy, difference or claim which may arise between the Parties and not from a Committee, out of or in relation to or in connection with the License and Collaboration Agreement or this Agreement (including arising out of or relating to the validity, construction, interpretation, enforceability, breach, performance, application or termination of this Agreement) that is not resolved pursuant to Section 14.1, except for a dispute, claim or controversy under Section 14.9 or as otherwise noted in Section 14.1, shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance

 

72


Amended and Restated License and Collaboration Agreement

 

with the applicable rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC Rules”) by three (3) arbitrators, one each chosen by the respective Parties and the third chosen by mutual agreement of the first two, and otherwise in accordance with the ICC Rules. The arbitrators shall have significant experience and shall have expertise in licensing and partnering agreements in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Either Party, following the end of the […***…] day period referenced in Section 14.1, may refer such issue to arbitration by submitting a written notice of such request to the other Party. The place of arbitration shall be New York and the language (including all testimony, evidence and written documentation) shall be English. The arbitrators shall establish procedures to facilitate and complete such arbitration as soon and efficiently as practicable. Unless the arbitrators expressly determine otherwise, neither Party shall be required to give general discovery of documents, but may be required only to produce specific, identified documents which are relevant to the dispute. The Parties shall have the right to be represented by counsel. Any judgment or award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and binding on the Parties, and shall be governed by the terms and conditions hereof, including the limitation on damages set forth in Section 11.5. The Parties agree that such a judgment or award may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The statute of limitations of the State of New York applicable to the commencement of a lawsuit shall apply to the commencement of arbitration under this Article 14. The arbitrators shall determine the allocation of costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees in the arbitration to be borne by each Party. All proceedings and decisions of the arbitrators shall be deemed Confidential Information of each of the Parties, and shall be subject to Article 12.

14.3 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the substantive laws of the State of New York, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.

14.4 Award. Any award to be paid by one Party to the other Party as determined by the arbitrator as set forth above under Section 14.2 shall be promptly paid in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset; and any costs, fees or taxes incident to enforcing the award shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the Party resisting enforcement. Each Party agrees to abide by the award rendered in any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Article 14, and agrees that, subject to the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, judgment may be entered upon the final award in the U.S. Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York and that other courts may award full faith and credit to such judgment in order to enforce such award.

14.5 Injunctive Relief; Remedy for Breach of Exclusivity. Nothing in this Article 14 will preclude either Party from seeking equitable relief or interim or provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable relief, concerning a dispute either prior to or during any arbitration if necessary to protect the interests of such Party or to preserve the status quo pending the arbitration proceeding. Therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies otherwise available at law, including the recovery of damages for breach of this Agreement, upon an adequate showing of material breach, and without further proof of irreparable harm other than this acknowledgement, such non-breaching Party shall be entitled to seek (a) immediate equitable relief, specifically including, but not limited to, both interim and permanent restraining orders and injunctions, and (b) such other and further equitable relief as the court may deem proper under the circumstances. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 14.5 shall otherwise limit a breaching Party’s opportunity to cure a material breach as permitted in accordance with Section 13.4.

14.6 Confidentiality. The arbitration proceeding shall be confidential and the arbitrator shall issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard each Party’s Confidential Information. Except as required by law, no Party shall make (or instruct the arbitrator to make) any public announcement with respect to the proceedings or decision of the arbitrator without prior written consent of the other Party. The existence of any dispute submitted to arbitration, and the award, shall be kept in confidence by the Parties and the arbitrator, except as required in connection with the enforcement of such award or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

Amended and Restated License and Collaboration Agreement

 

14.7 Survivability. Any duty to arbitrate under this Agreement shall remain in effect and be enforceable after termination of this Agreement for any reason.

14.8 Jurisdiction. For the purposes of this Article 14, the Parties acknowledge their diversity (Gilead having its principal place of business in the State of California and Galapagos having its principal place of business in Belgium), and except as provided in Section 14.9, agree to accept the jurisdiction of any United States District Court located in New York for the purposes of enforcing or appealing any awards entered pursuant to this Article 14 and for enforcing the agreements reflected in this Article 14.

14.9 Patent and Trademark Disputes. Notwithstanding Section 14.2, any dispute, controversy or claim relating to the scope, validity, enforceability or infringement of any Galapagos Patents, Gilead Patents, Gilead Combination Patents, Joint Patents or Marks covering the manufacture, use, importation, offer for sale or sale of Licensed Products or Gilead Combination Products shall be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction in the country in which such patent or trademark rights were granted or arose.

ARTICLE 15

MISCELLANEOUS

15.1 [Intentionally Omitted]

15.2 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, including the Exhibits hereto, and the Ancillary Agreements set forth the complete, final and exclusive agreement and all the covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties existing as of the Effective Date with respect to the subject matter hereof, including the Materials Transfer Agreement and Existing Confidentiality Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between any plan hereunder (including the Development Plan or Shared Territory Commercialization Plan and Budget) and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. There are no covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions or understandings, either oral or written, between the Parties other than as are set forth herein and therein. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties unless reduced to writing and signed by an authorized officer of each Party. The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that this Agreement amends and restates the License and Collaboration Agreement as amended by the First Amendment in its entirety, and the License and Collaboration Agreement as amended by the First Amendment is replaced with, and superseded by, this Agreement.

15.3 Force Majeure. Both Parties shall be excused from the performance of their obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such performance is prevented or delayed by force majeure and the nonperforming Party promptly provides notice of the prevention to the other Party. Such excuse shall be continued so long as the condition constituting force majeure continues and the nonperforming Party takes reasonable efforts to remove the condition. For purposes of this Agreement, force majeure shall mean conditions beyond the control of the Parties, including an act of God, war, civil commotion, terrorist act, labor strike or lock-out, epidemic, failure or default of public utilities or common carriers, destruction of production facilities or materials by fire, earthquake, storm or like catastrophe, and failure of plant or machinery (provided that such failure could not have been prevented by the exercise of skill, diligence, and prudence that would be reasonably and ordinarily expected from a skilled and experienced person engaged in the same type of undertaking under the same or similar circumstances). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party shall not be excused from making payments owed hereunder because of a force majeure affecting such Party.

15.5 No Strict Construction; Headings. This Agreement has been prepared jointly and shall not be strictly construed against either Party. Ambiguities, if any, in this Agreement shall not be construed against any Party, irrespective of which Party may be deemed to have authored the ambiguous provision. The headings of each Article and Section in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to limit or expand on the meaning of the language contained in the particular Article or Section.

15.6 Assignment; Industry Transaction; Acquired Programs.

(a) Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, except that a Party may make such an assignment without the other Party’s consent to an Affiliate or to a successor to substantially all of the business to which this Agreement relates, whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale of assets, reorganization or other transaction. Any permitted successor or assignee of rights or obligations hereunder shall, in a writing to the other Party, expressly assume performance of such rights or obligations (and in any event, any Party assigning this Agreement to an Affiliate shall remain bound by the terms and conditions hereof). Any permitted assignment shall be binding on the successors of the assigning Party. Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section 15.6 shall be null, void and of no legal effect.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) no material, Information, Patent, Regulatory Materials or Regulatory Approvals Controlled by a Drug Company transaction counterparty of Galapagos or any of such counterparty’s Affiliates prior to an Industry Transaction of Galapagos shall be deemed Controlled by Galapagos for purposes of this Agreement after such Industry Transaction. For the purposes of this Agreement, (A) “Industry Transaction” of a Party shall mean that (1) such Party shall be controlled directly or indirectly by, or merged into, a Drug Company where such Drug Company is the surviving entity, or (2) any sale, license or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all or substantially all of such Party’s assets or that portion of such Party’s business pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement shall have occurred to a Drug Company, and (B) “Drug Company” shall mean any entity that conducts research and development in the biotechnology or pharmaceutical industry or develops or commercializes therapeutic or diagnostic products.

(c) In addition, upon an Industry Transaction of Galapagos, Gilead shall have the right to (i) terminate Galapagos’s Co-Commercialization rights for any and all Licensed Products and Gilead Combination Products following such Industry Transaction and the Operating Profit and Operating Loss sharing pursuant to Section 8.7 in favor of royalties pursuant to Section 8.3, by providing written notice to Galapagos; and (ii) disband the JSC, JDC, JCC, Shared Territory JCC, Joint Team, any internal Gilead committee involvement of Galapagos and the Patent Committee, and terminate the activities thereof and thereafter undertake all activities assigned by this Agreement thereto solely and exclusively by itself, provided, however, in each case that Gilead shall have no right to exercise such rights under (i) and/or (ii) if the Industry Transaction of Galapagos is with respect to a Drug Company with a market capitalization that does not exceed […***…] percent ([…***…]%) of Galapagos’ market capitalization, as measured immediately before the public announcement of such Industry Transaction.

(d) Acquired Programs.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of an acquisition of a Party or its business after the Effective Date by a Third Party (an “Acquirer”) whether by merger, asset purchase or otherwise and such Acquirer controls any program(s) that but for this Section 15.6(d), would violate Section 7.6(a) (each such program, a “Competing Program”), then the Acquirer and any Affiliate of the Acquirer that becomes an Affiliate of the acquired Party as a result of such acquisition (but excluding the acquired Party), shall not be subject to Section 7.6(a) as to any such Competing Programs in existence prior to the closing date of such acquisition, or for the subsequent development and commercialization of such Competing Programs (including new products from any such Competing Programs); provided, however, that no Information or Patents of the other Party are used by or on behalf of the Acquirer of the acquired Party (or any Affiliate of such Acquirer) in more than a de minimis fashion in connection with such subsequent development and commercialization of any Competing Programs.

(ii) Reserved.

15.7 Performance by Affiliates. Subject to the limitations of Section 7.2, each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any right hereunder through any of its Affiliates. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate.

15.8 Compliance with Applicable Law. Each Party shall comply with Applicable Law in the course of performing its obligations or exercising its rights pursuant to this Agreement.

15.9 Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments, and to do all such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

15.10 Severability. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or by any court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be or is taken, the provision shall be considered severed from this Agreement and shall not serve to invalidate any remaining provisions hereof. The Parties shall make a good faith effort to replace any invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable one such that the objectives contemplated by the Parties when entering into this Agreement may be realized.

15.11 No Waiver. Any delay in enforcing a Party’s rights under this Agreement or any waiver as to a particular default or other matter shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s rights to the future enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, except with respect to an express written and signed waiver relating to a particular matter for a particular period of time.

15.12 Independent Contractors. Each Party shall act solely as an independent contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to give either Party the power or authority to act for, bind, or commit the other Party in any way. Nothing herein shall be construed to create the relationship of partners, principal and agent, or joint-venture partners between the Parties. Additionally, the Parties expressly agree that this Agreement is not intended to be treated as a partnership for Taxation purposes and that the Parties will reflect such agreement in all relevant Tax filings.
