4

***Confidential Treatment Requested


acquisition of such Additional Right, or as otherwise reasonably requested by a Party, the Controlling Party must notify each other Party (each, a “Non-Controlling Party”) of such acquisition or invention. If a Non-Controlling Party wishes to include such Additional Rights under the licenses granted pursuant to Sections 2.2, 2.3 or 5.6 (as the case may be), such Non-Controlling Party will notify the Controlling Party of its desire to do so, the Controlling Party will provide the Non-Controlling Party a summary of all material restrictions on the scope of the licenses granted, and all material payment obligations owed, under any Third Party Agreement applicable to such Additional Rights and the Non-Controlling Party may, upon written notice to the Controlling Party, obtain a license under such Additional Rights and will assume all financial and other obligations to, and be subject to all restrictions imposed by, the Controlling Party’s licensors or collaborators, if any, arising from the grant to such Non-Controlling Party of such license (including, to the extent access to such terms have been made available to such Non-Controlling Party in unredacted form (provided, however, that such Non-Controlling Party has not failed to request such access in accordance with Section 2.4(e)), all other terms of such Third Party Agreements applicable to the licenses granted to such Non-Controlling Party hereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Additional Rights that do not carry financial or other obligations or restrictions will be automatically included under the licenses granted pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.3 or 5.6. If the Controlling Party pays any upfront payments or similar acquisition costs to access Additional Rights, the Controlling Party and relevant Non-Controlling Party(ies) will negotiate in good faith regarding sharing such acquisition costs and payments. When acquiring or creating such Additional Rights pursuant to any agreement entered into after the Effective Date, each Party will endeavor in good faith to secure the right to sublicense such Additional Rights to the other Parties.

(e) Applicable Agreements. Each Party agrees to provide, upon the request of a Party, access to each Third Party Agreement that is the subject of any provision of this Section 2.4; provided, however, that the Parties agree and acknowledge that (i) the Third Party Agreements so provided may, to the extent necessary to protect confidential information of the relevant Third Party or financial information of the relevant Party, be redacted, and (ii) if so redacted, the Party assuming any obligations or accepting any limitations under a Third Party Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.4, will only be liable to the extent access to such terms have been made available to such licensed Party in unredacted form.

2.5 Sublicenses.

(a) Subject to Third Party Rights, Regulus will have the right to grant to its Affiliates and Third Parties sublicenses under the licenses granted in Sections 2.2(a) and (b).

(b) Subject to Third Party Rights, the Opt-In Party will have the right to grant to its Affiliates and Third Parties sublicenses under the rights granted to such Licensor in Section 5.6(a).

(c) Each such sublicense will be subject and subordinate to, and consistent with, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and will provide that any such Affiliate and Sublicensee will not further sublicense except on terms consistent with this Section 2.5. Regulus or the Opt-In Party, as applicable, will provide the other Parties with a copy of any sublicense granted pursuant to this Section 2.5 within 30 days after the execution thereof. Such copy may be redacted to exclude confidential scientific information and other information

 

5

 


required by a Sublicensee to be kept confidential; provided that all relevant financial terms and information will be retained. Regulus or the Opt-In Party, as applicable, will remain responsible for the performance of its Affiliates and Sublicensees, and will ensure that all such Affiliates and Sublicensees comply with the relevant provisions of this Agreement. In the event of a material default by any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees under a sublicense agreement, Regulus or the Opt-In Party, as applicable, will inform the other Parties and will take such action, after consultation with such other Parties, which, in Regulus’ or the Opt-in Party’s (as applicable) reasonable business judgment, will address such default.

3. TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER

3.1 Technology Transfer to Regulus. At each meeting of the Collaboration Working Group the representatives will discuss new Know-How and Patent Rights of Isis and Alnylam that are included in such Licensor’s Licensed Patents and Licensed Know-How hereunder at the level of detail necessary to enable Regulus to effectively practice such Patent Rights and Know-How.

3.2 Technology Transfer from Regulus; Identification and Improvements. At each Collaboration Working Group meeting Regulus will present a description of all Regulus IP developed by it or on its behalf, or over which Regulus otherwise acquired Control, since the last meeting. The description will be at a level of detail necessary to enable Isis, Alnylam or both, as appropriate, to effectively practice such Regulus IP in accordance with their respective licenses under Section 2.3.

4. DILIGENCE

4.1 General Diligence. Except to the extent a Licensor receives a license from Regulus pursuant to this Agreement to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize miRNA Therapeutics, Regulus will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to Develop, and Commercialize miRNA Compounds and miRNA Therapeutics in the Field.

4.2 Compliance with Laws. Each Party will, and will ensure that its Affiliates and Sublicensees will, comply with all relevant Laws in exercising their rights and fulfilling their obligations under this Agreement.

4.3 Reporting. By January 31st of each year, Regulus will prepare and furnish each Licensor with a written report summarizing Regulus’ activities conducted during the prior calendar year to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize miRNA Therapeutics in the Field and identifying the results obtained or benchmarks achieved since the last report to the Licensors.

4.4 Designation of Research Programs and Development Projects. Regulus’ officers will be responsible for reviewing the results of Research and Development activities under the Operating Plan and designating (subject to the approval of the Managing Board) from time to time Research Programs and Development Projects. A “Research Program” will begin upon the commencement of discovery or characterization activities focused on one or more specific miRNA(s) after preliminary validation of the biological function of such miRNA(s) has been identified (i.e., compound discovery, not target validation) and will include all activities with respect to the Development, Manufacturing and Commercialization of miRNA Compounds and

 

6

 


miRNA Therapeutics directed to such miRNA(s). A Research Program will become a “Development Project” (and thereafter will no longer be a Research Program) when Regulus’ officers recommend, and the Managing Board agrees, that a sufficient portfolio of data exists to support the initiation of a [...***...] on a miRNA Compound drug candidate targeting such miRNA(s). Regulus will maintain a written list of the then-current Research Programs and Development Projects (each, a “Program/Project List”).

5. RIGHT TO OPT-IN

5.1 Notice of Development Project Status. Concurrently with the conversion of a Research Program into a Development Project, Regulus will notify each Licensor of such conversion and whether or not Regulus will continue to pursue the Development and Commercialization of such newly designated Development Project.

5.2 Continued Development by Regulus of Development Projects. If Regulus notifies Licensors pursuant to Section 5.1 that Regulus will continue to pursue the Development and Commercialization of such Development Project, then, without limiting the generality of Section 4.1, Regulus will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to Develop and Commercialize the relevant Development Compounds and Development Therapeutics in the Field. Regulus will also (a) pay to each Licensor a royalty of [...***...]% of Net Sales of such Development Therapeutics which are Royalty-Bearing Products, during the relevant Royalty Term (provided, however, that, for the remainder of the relevant Royalty Term following the end of the relevant Exclusivity Period, the royalty rate will be [...***...]%) and (b) be responsible for all milestones, royalties and other payments payable to Third Parties in respect of the Development, Manufacture and Commercialization of such Development Therapeutics in the Field, by Regulus, its Affiliates and Sublicensees, including any amounts payable by either Licensor to Third Parties under the Third Party Rights. The Parties will use reasonable efforts to [...***...]. Regulus agrees that the royalty described in clause (a) of this Section 5.2 is payable to each Licensor, regardless of whether a particular Royalty-Bearing Product is covered by such Licensor’s Licensed IP. Each Party agrees and acknowledges that such royalty structure (i) is freely entered into by such Party, (ii) is a fair reflection of the value received by Regulus from the licenses granted by the Licensors, and (iii) is a reasonable allocation of the value received by Regulus from each Licensor, due to the difficulty of determining the extent to which Licensor’s Licensed IP covers or has enabled each Royalty-Bearing Product.

5.3 Opt-In Election. If Regulus notifies Licensors pursuant to Section 5.1 that it will not continue to pursue the Development and Commercialization of such Development Project, each Licensor will have the right, exercisable by providing written notice to Regulus and the other Licensor within [...***...] days following receipt of such notice (“Initial Opt-In Election Period”), to elect to continue to pursue the Development and Commercialization of such Development Project (“Opt-In Election”).

(a) Opt-In by One Licensor. If only one, but not both, of the Licensors (the “Opt-In Party”) makes an Opt-In Election with respect to such Development Project within the Initial Opt-In Election Period, the High Terms set forth in Section 5.4 and the terms of Section 5.6 will apply following the end of such Initial Opt-In Election Period and the Licensor who did not elect to opt-in will waive its right to opt-in with respect to such Development Project.

***Confidential Treatment Requested


(b) No Opt-In; Second Opt-In Election. If, within the Initial Opt-In Election Period, neither Licensor makes an Opt-In Election (or both Licensors fail to submit any response), then Regulus will use diligent efforts to negotiate and finalize, within [...***...] months following the end of the Initial Opt-In Election Period, a term sheet with a Third Party pursuant to which such Third Party will Develop and Commercialize, either by itself or with or on behalf of Regulus, such Development Project in the Field.

 

  (i) If, despite diligent efforts, Regulus is unable to finalize such term sheet with a Third Party with respect to the Development Project within such [...***...] month period, or Regulus is able to finalize such term sheet with a Third Party with respect to the Development Project within such [...***...] month period, but Regulus is unable to execute a definitive agreement substantially in conformance with such term sheet within [...***...] months after finalizing such term sheet, Regulus will notify Licensors thereof and each Licensor will again have the right, exercisable by providing written notice to Regulus and the other Licensor, within [...***...] days following Regulus’ notice (“Second Opt-In Election Period”), to elect to continue to pursue the Development and Commercialization of such Development Project on the Low Terms set forth in Section 5.5.

 

  (ii) If only one, but not both, of the Licensors, makes an Opt-In Election within the Second Opt-In Election Period (the “Opt-In Party”), the Low Terms set forth in Section 5.5 and the terms of Section 5.6 will apply following the end of such Second Opt-In Election Period and the Licensor who did not make an Opt-In Election, within such Second Opt-In Election Period, will have waived its right to opt-in with respect to such Development Project.

 

  (iii) If, within the Second Opt-In Election Period, neither Licensor makes an Opt-In Election (or both Licensors fail to submit any response), then Regulus will retain all rights to such Development Project.

(c) Opt-In by Both Licensors. If, within the Initial Opt-In Election Period or Second Opt-In Election Period, both Licensors submit an Opt-In Election with respect to such Development Project, then the Parties will, to the extent mutually agreed, work together to amend the Operating Plan to support Regulus in Developing and Commercializing the Development Project, including, as applicable, creating a funding and early development plan, and the designation of roles and responsibilities of each Party in the execution of such Operating Plan.

5.4 Opt-In on High Terms. In the event that an Opt-In Election is made by only one of the Licensors during the Initial Opt-In Election Period pursuant to Section 5.3(a), the following terms will apply (“High Terms”):

5.6 Other Terms Applicable to Opt-In Party.

(a) License Grant.

 

  (i) Regulus will, and hereby does, grant to the Opt-In Party, subject to and limited by the Third Party Rights, a worldwide, royalty-bearing, sublicenseable (in accordance with Section 2.5), (x) license under all Regulus IP, and (y) sublicense under all Licensed IP (within the scope of the license granted to Regulus under such Licensed IP pursuant to Sections 2.2(a) and 2.2(b)), solely for purposes of Developing, Manufacturing and Commercializing the relevant Development Project’s Development Compounds and Development Therapeutics in the Field on the terms set forth in this Section 5.6. Regulus shall comply with the provisions of Section 2.4 with respect to the disclosure of information with respect to the relevant Third Party Rights.

 

  (ii) Subject to Third Party Rights, the rights granted under Section 5.6(a)(i) to the Opt-In Party will be exclusive, to the fullest extent possible, under Regulus IP and under Licensed IP. For the sake of clarity, this means that Regulus IP will be exclusively licensed by Regulus to the Opt-In Party with respect to the relevant Development Project, and Regulus’ rights under the Licensed IP will be exclusively sublicensed by Regulus to the Opt-In Party with respect to the relevant Development Project, but any non-exclusive licenses grant by the relevant Licensor to Regulus with respect to Licensed IP shall not be deemed to have been expanded to exclusive licenses to Regulus.

(b) Diligence. The Opt-In Party will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize the relevant Development Compounds and Development Therapeutics, at such Opt-In Party’s own expense, in the Field, either by itself or with or through its Affiliates or Sublicensees.

(c) Non-Compete. The non-Opt-In Party with respect to a Development Project will not, itself or through its Affiliates or with Third Parties, Develop, Manufacture or Commercialize Development Compounds or Development Therapeutics with respect to such Development Project during the period (i) [...***...] of a Royalty-Bearing Product with respect to such Development Project anywhere in the world as long as such Opt-In Party reasonably believes that a Development Therapeutic would be a Royalty-Bearing Product upon first commercial sale, and (ii) [...***...] of a Royalty-Bearing Product with respect to such Development Project anywhere in the world, until the expiration of [...***...] for such Development Project; provided, however that each Party will be entitled to grant Permitted Licenses.

(d) Third Party and Inter-Licensor Payments. In addition to the royalties and milestones payable under Section 5.4 or 5.5 above, the Opt-In Party will be responsible for all

 

12

***Confidential Treatment Requested


 

milestones, royalties and other payments payable to Third Party Licensors and assumed under Section 2.4. The Parties will use reasonable efforts to [...***...]. In addition, the Opt-In Party will be responsible for any other payments to the Third Parties in respect of the Development, Manufacture and Commercialization of such Development Compounds and Development Therapeutics in the Field. In addition, the Licensors agree that any amounts otherwise owed by one Licensor to another pursuant to a Previous Agreement is hereby waived with respect to such Development Project.

(e) No Longer a Development Project. If one, but not both, Licensors make an Opt-In Election with respect to a Development Project, such Development Project will be permanently removed from the Program/Project List.

(f) Credit for Prepaid Amounts. The Parties agree that, with respect to any Development Project, the relevant Opt-In Party should pay the greater of the cumulative Guaranteed Payments and the cumulative Sublicense Income Payments as of the end of each calendar quarter, and, because the timing of the Guaranteed Payments and the Sublicense Income Payments with respect to any given Development Project may not align, the Parties agree that the relevant Opt-In Party will not, with respect to any calendar quarter, be required to pay more than the amount necessary to bring the cumulative payments made by such Opt-In Party with respect to such Development Project up to the greater of the cumulative Guaranteed Payments and the cumulative Sublicense Income Payments with respect to such calendar quarter. Therefore, with respect to any calendar quarter, the relevant Opt-In Party shall pay the difference (if positive) between (i) the Cumulative Amount Owed as of the end of such calendar quarter, minus (ii) the Cumulative Amount Owed (if any) as of the end of the immediately prior calendar quarter. Several examples are provided in Schedule 5.6(f).

 

  (A) Cumulative Amount Owed” means, with respect to a Development Project and a calendar quarter, the greater of (1) the cumulative Guaranteed Payments as of the end of such calendar quarter, and (2) the cumulative Sublicense Income Payments as of the end of such calendar quarter.

 

  (B) Guaranteed Payments” means, with respect to a Development Project and a calendar quarter, (1) if High Terms apply, the payments paid or payable pursuant to Sections 5.4(a) and 5.4(c) with respect to such calendar quarter, and (2) if Low Terms apply, the payments paid or payable pursuant to Section 5.5(a) and 5.5(c) with respect to such calendar quarter.

5.7 Payment of Royalties. Following any dissolution or winding-up of Regulus that results in no successor entity to Regulus, any royalties, milestones and/or sublicense fees due to Regulus by a Licensor in connection with an Opt-In Election under this Agreement, will be reduced by [...***...] percent ([...***...]%) and this amount will instead be payable by the Licensor required to pay such fee directly to the other Licensor (the “Receiving Licensor”); provided, however, if the Receiving Licensor has pass-through obligations with respect to a royalty

 

13

***Confidential Treatment Requested


 

payment, milestone or sublicense fee, the payment to the Receiving Licensor will not be reduced to an amount less than the amount of the pass-through obligation.1

8. PAYMENT TERMS; REPORTS; RECORD-KEEPING AND AUDIT RIGHTS

8.1 Reports and Payments. The Party paying any royalties, milestones or Sublicense Income Payments hereunder (the “Paying Party”) to another Party (each, a “Payee Party”) will deliver to such Payee Party(ies), within 15 days after the end of each calendar quarter, a report with a reasonably detailed written accounting of Net Sales of Royalty-Bearing Products that are subject to royalty payments due to the Payee Party(ies) for such calendar quarter, milestones payable and Sublicense Income received or accrued during such period. Such quarterly reports will indicate gross sales on a country-by-country and Royalty-Bearing Product-by-Royalty-Bearing Product basis, the deductions from gross sales used in calculating Net Sales and the resulting calculation of the royalties due to the Payee Party(ies). Royalties or other payments accrued for the period covered by each such quarterly report will be due and payable 45 days after the end of each relevant calendar quarter. All amounts in this Agreement are expressed in U.S. Dollars and all payments due to the Payee Party(ies) hereunder will be paid in U.S. Dollars. If any conversion of foreign currency to U.S. Dollars is required in connection with any such payments, such conversion will be made by using the conversion rate existing in the United States (as reported in The Wall Street Journal) on the last Business Day of the reporting period to which such payments relate, or such other publication as the Parties agree.

8.2 Tax Withholding. The Paying Party will use all reasonable and legal efforts to reduce tax withholding with respect to payments to be made to the Payee Party(ies). Notwithstanding such efforts, if the Paying Party concludes that tax withholdings are required with respect to payments to the Payee Party(ies), the Paying Party will withhold the required amount and pay it to the appropriate governmental authority. In any such case, the Paying Party will promptly provide the Payee Party(ies) with original receipts or other evidence reasonably sufficient to allow the Payee Party(ies) to document such tax withholdings for purposes of claiming foreign tax credits and similar benefits.

8.3 Late Payments. Any payments that are not made on or before the due date will bear interest at the lesser of (a) 1.5% per month or (b) the maximum permissible rate under applicable law, for the period from the date on which such payment was due through the date on which payment is actually made.

8.4 Financial Records. Unless otherwise required by the Investor Rights Agreement, the Paying Party will maintain, and will require its Affiliates and Sublicensees to maintain, for 3 years after the relevant reporting period all financial records relating to the transactions and activities contemplated by this Agreement in sufficient detail to verify compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

8.5 Audit Right. Once during each calendar year, each Payee Party may retain an independent certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to the Paying Party to audit the financial records described in Section 8.4, upon reasonable notice to the Paying Party, during regular business hours and under an obligation of confidentiality to the Paying Party. Such Payee Party will bear all of the costs of such audit, except as provided below. The results of such audit will be made available to all Parties; provided, that, such results will be deemed the Confidential Information of the Paying Party hereunder. If the audit demonstrates that the payments owed under this Agreement have been understated, the Paying Party will pay the balance to the Payee Party, together with interest in accordance with Section 8.3. Further, if the amount of the understatement is greater than 5% of the amount owed to such Payee Party with respect to the audited period, then the Paying Party will reimburse the Payee Party for the reasonable cost of the audit. If the audit demonstrates that the payments owed under this Agreement have been overstated, the Payee Party will refund to the Paying Party the amount of such overpayment. All payments owed by the Paying Party or Payee Party under this Section 8.5 will be made within 30 days after the results of the audit are delivered to the Parties unless the Paying Party is disputing in good faith the results of the audit in which case the payment will be made within 30 days after resolution of such dispute.

9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

9.1 Ownership.

(a) As among the Parties, (i) all of Alnylam’s Licensed IP will be owned solely by Alnylam, (ii) all of Isis’ Licensed IP will be owned solely by Isis, and (iii) subject to the Buy-Out process, all Work Product, and the Intellectual Property therein, will be owned by Regulus, and each Licensor hereby assigns, and will cause its Affiliates to assign, to Regulus all Work Product and the Intellectual Property therein.

(b) If Regulus enters into an agreement (other than the Services Agreement) with one of its Affiliates, a Licensor, an Affiliate of a Licensor or a Third Party pursuant to which Regulus IP could be developed, Regulus will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to require such Person to assign to Regulus all right, title and interest to Regulus IP developed by such Person, or otherwise ensure that Regulus Controls all such Regulus IP.

9.2 Prosecution and Maintenance of Patent Rights.

(a) Regulus IP. As among the Parties, Regulus will have the sole right to file, prosecute and maintain Patent Rights covering any Regulus IP, at Regulus’ own expense.

(b) Licensor IP.

 

  (i) As among the Parties, each Licensor will have the initial right to file, prosecute and maintain such Licensor’s Licensed Patent Rights. Such activities will be at such Licensor’s expense.

 

  (ii)

Subject to any Third Party Rights, in the event that a Licensor declines to file, prosecute or maintain such Licensor’s Licensed Patent Rights, elects to allow any such Patent Rights to lapse, or

 

15

 


  elects to abandon any such Patent Rights before all appeals within the respective patent office have been exhausted, then:

 

  (A) Such Licensor will provide Regulus with reasonable notice of its decision to decline to file, prosecute or maintain any such Patent Rights or its election to allow any such Patent Rights to lapse, or its election to abandon any such Patent Rights, so as to permit Regulus to decide whether to file, prosecute or maintain the same, and to take any necessary action.

 

  (B) Regulus may assume control of the filing, prosecution and/or maintenance of such Patent Rights in the name of such Licensor, at Regulus’ expense.

 

  (C) Such Licensor will, at Regulus’ expense and reasonable request, assist and cooperate in the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such Patent Rights.

 

  (D) Regulus will provide such Licensor, sufficiently in advance for such Licensor to comment, with copies of all patent applications and other material submissions and correspondence with any patent counsel or patent authorities pertaining to such Patent Rights.

 

  (E) Regulus will give due consideration to the comments of such Licensor, but will have the final say in determining whether or not to incorporate such comments.

 

  (F) Regulus and such Licensor will promptly provide the other with copies of all material correspondence received from any patent counsel or patent authorities pertaining to such Patent Rights.

9.3 Enforcement.

(a) Competitive Infringement. Subject to any Third Party Rights, the terms of this Section 9.3(a) will apply with respect to any actual or suspected infringement of a Licensor’s Licensed Patent Rights or Regulus Patent Rights by a Third Party making, using or selling a therapeutic product that contains or consists of (y) a miRNA Compound as an active ingredient [...***...] or (z) if clause (y) does not apply, an oligonucleotide(s) that falls within the field of a Party’s exclusive license under Section 2.3 of this Agreement. In the case of (z) above, the Party with the exclusive license in the field where the infringing product most reasonably falls will be considered the relevant Commercializing Party for purposes of this Section 9.3(a).

 

  (i)

Each Party will promptly report in writing to the other Parties any such infringement of which it becomes aware, including, without limitation, receipt of any certification received under the United States Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of

 

16

***Confidential Treatment Requested


  1984 (Pub. Law 98-471), as amended (the “Hatch-Waxman Act”), claiming that any of the Licensed Patent Rights or Regulus Patent Rights is invalid, unenforceable or that no infringement will arise from the manufacture, use or sale of such product (a “Paragraph IV Certification”).

 

  (ii) The relevant Commercializing Party will have the initial right, at such Commercializing Party’s expense, to initiate a legal action against such Third Party with respect to such infringement of the Regulus Patent Rights and, if such Commercializing Party is a Licensor, such Commercializing Party’s Licensed Patent Rights. At the Commercializing Party’s reasonable request and expense, the relevant Licensor(s) (if Regulus is the Commercializing Party) or the other Licensor (if a Licensor is the Commercializing Party) will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to initiate a legal action against such Third Party with respect to an infringement described in clause (y) of this Section 9.3(a) of such other Licensor(s)’ Licensed Patent Rights. Each other Party will join in any such action(s) as a party at the Commercializing Party’s request and at the Commercializing Party’s expense in the event that an adverse party asserts, the court rules or other Laws then applicable provide, or the Commercializing Party determines in good faith, that a court would lack jurisdiction based on such other Party’s absence as a party in such suit. Each other Party may also at any time join in the Commercializing Party’s action and may be represented by counsel of its choice, at such Party’s expense; but in any event control of such action will remain with the Commercializing Party. At the Commercializing Party’s or enforcing Licensor’s reasonable request and expense, the other Parties will provide reasonable assistance to the Commercializing Party or enforcing Licensor, as the case may be, in connection with any such action. Without the prior written consent of the relevant other Party(ies), the Commercializing Party or enforcing Licensor, as the case may be, will not enter into any settlement admitting the invalidity of, impacting the scope or interpretation of or otherwise impairing such other Party(ies)’ rights, as the case may be, in any such Patent Rights.

 

  (iii) Any recoveries resulting from an action brought under Section 9.3(a)(ii) in connection with an infringement described in clause (y) of Section 9.3(a) (whether undertaken by the Commercializing Party or the enforcing Licensor) will be applied as follows:

 

  (A) First, to reimburse each Party for all litigation costs in connection with such proceeding paid by such Party (on a pro rata basis, based on each Party’s respective litigation costs, to the extent the recovery was less than all such litigation costs); and

 

17

 


  (B) The remainder of the recovery will be retained by the Commercializing Party and [...***...].

Any recoveries resulting from an action brought under Section 9.3(a)(ii) in connection with an infringement described in clause (z) of Section 9.3(a) will be retained by the Commercializing Party.

 

  (iv) If the Commercializing Party does not, within 6 months of written notice from another Party or otherwise becoming aware of such infringement (or within 30 days of the Commercializing Party’s receipt of a Paragraph IV Certification), commence and reasonably pursue a legal action to prevent such infringement with respect to the Regulus Patent Rights, Regulus will be entitled, at its expense, to commence the action in its name. Each Licensor will join in such action as a party at Regulus’ request and expense in the event that an adverse party asserts, the court rules or other Laws then applicable provide, or Regulus determines in good faith, that a court would lack jurisdiction based on such Licensor’s absence as a party in such suit, but control of such action will remain with Regulus. Any recoveries resulting from such an action will be retained by Regulus.

(b) Non-Competitive Infringement.

 

  (i) As among the Parties, except as provided in Sections 9.3(a), Regulus will have the sole right to protect Regulus Patent Rights from any actual or suspected infringement or misappropriation, at Regulus’ own expense. Any recoveries resulting from such an action will be retained by Regulus [...***...].

 

  (ii) As among the Parties, except as provided in Section 9.3(a), each Licensor will have the sole right to protect such Licensor’s Licensed Patent Rights from any actual or suspected infringement or misappropriation. Such activities will be at such Licensor’s expense. Any recoveries resulting from such an action will be retained by such Licensor.

9.4 Invalidity Claims. Subject to any Third Party Rights, if a Third Party at any time asserts a claim that a Licensor’s Licensed IP or the Regulus IP is invalid or otherwise unenforceable (an “Invalidity Claim”), whether as a defense in an infringement action brought by a Party pursuant to Section 9.3 or in an action brought against a Party under Section 9.5, the general concepts of Section 9.3 will apply to such Invalidity Claim (i.e., each Party has the right to defend its own intellectual property, except that the Commercializing Party will have the initial right, to the extent provided in Section 9.3(a), to defend such Invalidity Claim, and Regulus will have a step-in right, to the extent provided in Section 9.3(a), to defend such Invalidity Claim).

***Confidential Treatment Requested


9.5 Claimed Infringement.

(a) Regulus will promptly notify the Licensors of the receipt of any claim that the Development or Manufacture of miRNA Compounds or miRNA Therapeutics or Commercialization of miRNA Therapeutics infringes the Patent Rights or misappropriates Know-How of any Third Party or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding with respect thereto, enclosing a copy of the claim and all papers served.

(b) If a Party becomes aware that the Development or Manufacture of miRNA Compounds or miRNA Therapeutics or the Commercialization of miRNA Therapeutics in the Field, by a Commercializing Party, its Affiliates or Sublicensees, infringes or misappropriates, or is likely to or is alleged to infringe or misappropriate, the Patent Rights or Know-How of any Third Party, such Party will promptly notify intellectual property counsel to the other Parties, and such Commercializing Party will have the sole right and responsibility to take any action it deems appropriate with respect thereto; provided, however, that, to the extent that any action would involve the enforcement of another Party’s Licensed IP or the Regulus IP (if the Commercializing Party is a Licensor), or the defense of an Invalidity Claim with respect to such other Party’s Licensed IP or the Regulus IP, the general concepts of Section 9.3 will apply to the enforcement of such other Party’s Licensed IP or the Regulus IP or the defense of such Invalidity Claim (i.e., each Party has the right to enforce its own intellectual property, except that the relevant Commercializing Party will have the initial right, to the extent provided in Section 9.3(a), to enforce such Licensed IP or Regulus IP or defend such Invalidity Claim, and Regulus will have a step-in right, to the extent provided in Section 9.3(a), to enforce such Patent Right or defend such Invalidity Claim).

9.6 Additional Right. Notwithstanding any provision of Section 9, Isis will actively participate in the planning and conduct of any enforcement of Regulus IP or Isis IP and will take the lead of such enforcement to the extent that the scope or validity of any Licensed Patent Right Controlled by Isis [...***...].

The Collaboration Working Group will agree upon the form and timing of any publication or presentation or other disclosure (such as an abstract, manuscript or presentation) to the public of the Research Results subject to the Collaboration Working Group’s approval. For clarification, this Section 10.2 and Section 10.3 will not apply with respect to the use and disclosure of another Party’s Confidential Information as specifically provided for in the Investor Rights Agreement or Section 10.1 of this Agreement or for disclosure of any Party’s own information to comply with Law.

10.3 Disclosures Regarding Royalty-Bearing Products. In addition, each Commercializing Party may, without the Collaboration Working Group’s approval, make

 

19

***Confidential Treatment Requested


disclosures pertaining solely to its Royalty-Bearing Products; provided, however, that, (i) Regulus will immediately notify (and provide as much advance notice as possible to) the other Parties of any event materially related to its Royalty-Bearing Products (including any regulatory approval) so that the Parties may analyze the need to or desirability of publicly disclosing or reporting such event and (ii) any press release or other similar public communication by any Party related to efficacy or safety data and/or results of a Royalty-Bearing Product will be submitted to the other Parties for review at least [...***...] Business Days (to the extent permitted by Law) in advance of such proposed public disclosure, the other Parties shall have the right to expeditiously review and recommend changes to such communication and the Party whose communication has been reviewed shall in good faith consider any changes that are timely recommended by the reviewing Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in each case such right of review and recommendation shall only apply for the first time that specific information is to be disclosed, and shall not apply to the subsequent disclosure of information that (A) is substantially similar to a previously reviewed disclosure and (B) in the context of the subsequent disclosure, does not carry a substantially different qualitative message than that carried by the previously reviewed disclosure.

 

11. INDEMNIFICATION

11.1 Indemnification by Regulus. Regulus agrees to defend each Licensor, the Affiliates of each Licensor, and their respective agents, directors, officers and employees (the “Licensor Indemnitees”), at Regulus’ cost and expense, and will indemnify and hold harmless the Licensor Indemnitees from and against any and all losses, costs, damages, fees or expenses (“Losses”) relating to or in connection with a Third Party claim arising out of (a) any actual or alleged death, personal bodily injury or damage to real or tangible personal property claimed to result, directly or indirectly, from the manufacture, storage, possession, use or consumption of, treatment with or sale, any miRNA Compound or miRNA Therapeutic (other than as set forth in Section 11.2(a) or in the Investor Rights Agreement), regardless of the form in which any such claim is made or whether actual negligence is found, (b) any actual or alleged infringement or unauthorized use or misappropriation of any Patent Right or other intellectual property right of a Third Party with respect to the activities of Regulus, its Affiliates or Sublicensees under this Agreement or the Services Agreement, (c) breach by Regulus of its representations, warranties or covenants made under this Agreement or the Services Agreement, or (d) any negligent act or omission or willful misconduct of Regulus, its Affiliates or Sublicensees or any of their employees, contractors or agents, in performing its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement or the Services Agreement; provided, however, that, with respect to each Licensor and its related Licensor Indemnitees, the foregoing indemnity will not apply to the extent that any such Losses (i) are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Licensor or its related Licensor Indemnitees, or (ii) are otherwise subject to an obligation by such Licensor to indemnify the Superset Indemnitees under Section 11.2(a)-(d).

11.2 Indemnification by Licensor(s). Each Licensor agrees to defend Regulus and its Affiliates, and their respective agents, directors, officers and employees (the “Regulus Indemnitees”) and the other Licensor, and its related Licensor Indemnitees (the Regulus Indemnitees, such other Licensor and its related Licensor Indemnitees, collectively, the “Superset Indemnitees”), at such Licensor’s cost and expense, and will indemnify and hold harmless the Superset Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses, relating to or in connection with a Third Party claim arising out of (a) any actual or alleged death, personal

***Confidential Treatment Requested


bodily injury or damage to real or tangible personal property claimed to result, directly or indirectly, from the manufacture, storage, possession, use or consumption of, treatment with or sale, any miRNA Compound or miRNA Therapeutic Developed, Manufactured and/or Commercialized by such Licensor, its Affiliates or Sublicensees pursuant to Section 5, regardless of the form in which any such claim is made or whether actual negligence is found, (b) any actual or alleged infringement or unauthorized use or misappropriation of any Patent Right or other intellectual property right of a Third Party with respect to the activities of such Licensor, its Affiliates or Sublicensees under this Agreement or the Services Agreement, (c) any breach by such Licensor of its representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement or the Services Agreement given to the other Party seeking indemnification hereunder, or (d) any negligent act or omission or willful misconduct of such Licensor or its Affiliates, or any of their employees, contractors or agents, in performing its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement or the Services Agreement; provided, however, that with respect to Regulus or the indemnified Licensor, and the relevant Superset Indemnitees, the foregoing indemnity will not apply to the extent that any such Losses (i) are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Party or its Superset Indemnitees, or (ii) are otherwise subject to an obligation by such Party to indemnify the Licensor Indemnitees under Section 11.1(a)-(d).

11.3 Notification of Claims; Conditions to Indemnification Obligations. A Party entitled to indemnification under this Section 11 will (a) promptly notify the indemnifying Party as soon as it becomes aware of a claim or action for which indemnification may be sought pursuant hereto, (b) cooperate with the indemnifying Party in the defense of such claim or suit, and (c) permit the indemnifying Party to control the defense of such claim or suit, including without limitation the right to select defense counsel; provided that if the Party entitled to indemnification fails to promptly notify the indemnifying Party pursuant to the foregoing clause (a), the indemnifying Party will only be relieved of its indemnification obligation to the extent prejudiced by such failure. In no event, however, may the indemnifying Party compromise or settle any claim or suit in a manner which admits fault or negligence on the part of the indemnified Party, or which imposes obligations on the indemnified Party, other than financial obligations that are covered by the indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligation, without the prior written consent of the indemnified Party. The indemnifying Party will have no liability under this Section 11 with respect to claims or suits settled or compromised without its prior written consent and the indemnified Party may not, without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, compromise or settle any claim or suit in a manner which admits fault or negligence on the part of the indemnifying Party, or which imposes obligations on the indemnified Party.

11.4 Allocation. In the event a claim is based partially on an indemnified claim under this Agreement or the Investor Rights Agreement and partially on a non-indemnified claim or based partially on a claim indemnified by one Party under this Agreement or the Investor Rights Agreement and partially on a claim indemnified by another Party(ies) under this Agreement or the Investor Rights Agreement, any payments in connection with such claims are to be apportioned between the Parties in accordance with the degree of cause attributable to each Party.

15. TERMINATION

15.1 Term. This Agreement will become effective as of the Amendment Effective Date, and will remain in effect until the earlier of (a) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 15.2, (b) the cessation of all Development of potential Royalty-Bearing Products prior to the first commercial sale of a Royalty-Bearing Product anywhere in the world, or (c) following the first commercial sale of a Royalty-Bearing Product anywhere in the world, the expiration of the Royalty Terms for Royalty-Bearing Products on a country-by-country and a Royalty-Bearing Product-by-Royalty-Bearing Product basis.

15.2 Termination for Breach.

(a) If Regulus breaches any material provision of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty), and fails to remedy such breach within sixty (60) days after written notice from the Licensors, acting jointly, then the Licensors, acting jointly, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to initiate the Buy-Out. In such event, the Licensors will determine which Licensor will be considered the “Initiating Founding Investor” (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) for purposes of the Buy-Out.

(b) If an Opt-In Party breaches any material provision of this Agreement with respect to the relevant Development Project, and fails to remedy such breach within 60 days after written notice from Regulus, then Regulus will have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate such Opt-In Party’s rights and licenses with respect to such Development Project and the breaching Opt-In Party will promptly return to the aggrieved Party(ies) all related tangible Know-How and Confidential Information of such aggrieved Party(ies).

(c) Except as provided in Section 15.2(b), if a Licensor breaches any material provision of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty), and fails to remedy such breach within sixty (60) days after written notice from any other Party, then (i) if such other Party is a Licensor, such Licensor may initiate the Buy-Out, (ii) if such other Party is Regulus, Regulus may not terminate this Agreement, and (iii) whether such other Party is Regulus or a Licensor, such other Party has the right to seek other legal or equitable remedies with respect to such breach.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 15.2(b) or 15.2(c)(i), if a non-breaching Party gives the allegedly-breaching Party a notice pursuant to this Section 15.2 of a material breach by such alleged-breaching Party, and, as of the end of the cure period specified above, two or more Parties are engaged in an arbitration pursuant to Section 16.7 in which such allegedly-breaching Party is in good faith disputing the occurrence of the alleged material breach or the sufficiency of the cure with respect thereto, then the non-breaching Parties may not (i) initiate the Buy-Out in the case of Section 15.2(c)(i) or (ii) terminate the applicable license in the case of Section 15.2(b), as a result of such breach unless and until the arbitrator issues an award that such breach occurred (if that issue was in dispute) and/or that the cure was insufficient (if that issue was in dispute), following which the breaching Party shall have 60 days to cure such breach (or unless

 

24


and until such allegedly-breaching Party is no longer disputing such issues in good faith, if earlier).

15.3 Effects of Termination.

(a) Any of Regulus’ direct Sublicensees may, by providing written notice to the Licensors within the 60 day period immediately following termination of this Agreement with respect to Regulus, in whole or in part, obtain from each Licensor a direct license from such Licensor, on the same terms as the sublicense granted by Regulus to such Sublicensee with respect to such Licensor’s Licensed IP, except to the extent that any such terms are inconsistent with the rights granted by such Licensor to Regulus under this Agreement, in which case any terms in this Agreement which are more protective of such Licensor’s rights will instead apply. If a Sublicensee provides such notice, the Licensors will negotiate in good faith with such Sublicensee a written agreement to reflect such terms; provided, that, (i) such Sublicensee is, at the time of termination of this Agreement, in compliance with its sublicense agreement with Regulus, and (ii) such Sublicensee cures any payment default of Regulus hereunder, with respect to any royalties or Sublicense Income Payments due to the Licensors with respect to the sublicense granted by Regulus to such Sublicensee hereunder.

15.4 Survival. Upon termination of this Agreement, the following sections of this Agreement will survive: Sections 2.1, 2.3, 8, 9.1(a), 9.3, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15.2, 15.3, 15.4 and 16, and, to the extent related to Section 9.3, Sections 9.4, 9.5 and 9.6. In addition, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to a Buy-Out, then, with respect to each Development Project for which an Opt-In Party has obtained a license under Section 5.6 before the initiation of the Buy-Out, the following sections of this Agreement will survive with respect to such Development Project: Sections 5.4 or 5.5 (as applicable), and Section 5.6, unless and until terminated pursuant to Section 15.2(b), subject to Section 15.2(d) (with Regulus’ role in such termination sections being played by the other Founding Investor following the dissolution of Regulus). Upon any expiration of this Agreement with respect to a Royalty-Bearing Product under Section 15.1(c), the license granted under any Know-How that is part of the Licensed IP and/or Regulus IP to a Party with respect to such Royalty-Bearing Product will become a fully paid-up and perpetual license to Manufacture, import, use, sell or otherwise Commercialize such Royalty-Bearing Product.

16. MISCELLANEOUS

Except (a) for matters of intellectual property law concerning the existence, validity, ownership, infringement or enforcement of intellectual property, which matters will not be subject to the terms of this Section 16.7, and (b) as other dispute resolution procedures are expressly provided herein, in the event of any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Parties will try to settle such dispute, controversy or claim amicably between themselves, including referring such dispute, controversy or claim to the Executive Officers of the Parties. If the Parties are unable to so settle such dispute, controversy or claim within a period of 60 days from the date of such referral, then upon notice by any Party to the other Parties, any such dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to any provision of this Agreement, or the interpretation, enforceability, performance, breach, termination or validity hereof, will be finally resolved under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association by a single arbitrator appointed in accordance with such rules. The Parties will be entitled to the same discovery as permitted under the U.S. Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; provided that the arbitrator will be entitled in its discretion to grant a request from a Party for expanded or more limited discovery. The place of arbitration will be New York, New York. The language of the arbitration will be English.

In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, unless the absence of the invalidated provision(s) adversely affect the substantive rights of the Parties. The Parties will in such an instance use their best efforts to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) with valid, legal and enforceable provision(s) which, insofar as practical, maintains the balance of the rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement.

16.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all schedules and exhibits hereto), the Investor Rights Agreement and the Services Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter herein and supersedes all previous agreements (other than those listed in Schedule A (the “Previous Agreements”)), whether written or oral, with respect to such subject matter, including without limitation the Original License Agreement.

16.11 No Implied Waivers. The waiver by a Party of a breach or default of any provision of this Agreement by any other Party will not be construed as a waiver of any succeeding breach of the same or any other provision, nor will any delay or omission on the part of a Party to exercise or avail itself of any right, power or privilege that it has or may have hereunder operate as a waiver of any right, power or privilege by such Party.

16.12 Export Compliance.

1.67 “Net Sales” means, with respect to a Royalty-Bearing Product, the gross invoice price of all units of such Royalty-Bearing Products sold by the relevant Commercializing Party, its Affiliates and/or their direct Sublicensees to any Third Party, less the following items: (a) trade discounts, credits or allowances, (b) credits or allowances additionally granted upon returns, rejections or recalls, (c) freight, shipping and insurance charges, (d) taxes, duties or other governmental tariffs (other than income taxes), (e) government-mandated rebates, and (f) a reasonable reserve for bad debts. “Net Sales” under the following circumstances will mean the fair market value of such Royalty-Bearing Product: (i) Royalty-Bearing Products which are used by such Commercializing Party, its Affiliates or direct Sublicensees for any commercial purpose without charge or provision of invoice, (ii) Royalty-Bearing Products which are sold or disposed of in whole or in part for non cash consideration, or (iii) Royalty-Bearing Products which are provided to a Third Party by such Commercializing Party, its Affiliates or direct Sublicensees

without charge or provision of invoice and used by such Third Party except in the cases of Royalty-Bearing Products used to conduct clinical trials, reasonable amounts of Royalty-Bearing Products used as marketing samples and Royalty-Bearing Product provided without charge for compassionate or similar uses.

Net Sales will not include any transfer between or among a Party and any of its Affiliates or direct Sublicensees for resale.

In the event a Royalty-Bearing Product is sold as part of a Combination Product (as defined below), the Net Sales from the Combination Product, for the purposes of determining royalty payments, will be determined by multiplying the Net Sales (as determined without reference to this paragraph) of the Combination Product, by the fraction, A/A+B, where A is the average sale price of the Royalty-Bearing Product when sold separately in finished form and B is the average sale price of the other therapeutically active pharmaceutical compound(s) included in the Combination Product when sold separately in finished form, each during the applicable royalty period or, if sales of all compounds did not occur in such period, then in the most recent royalty reporting period in which sales of all occurred. In the event that such average sale price cannot be determined for both the Royalty-Bearing Product and all other therapeutically active pharmaceutical compounds included in the Combination Product, Net Sales for the purposes of determining royalty payments will be calculated as above, but the average sales price in the above equation will be replaced by a good faith estimate of the fair market value of the compound(s) for which no such price exists. As used above, the term “Combination Product” means any pharmaceutical product which consists of a Royalty-Bearing Product and other therapeutically active pharmaceutical compound(s).

TEKMIRA

License and Collaboration Agreement between Tekmira Pharmaceuticals Corporation (formerly INEX Pharmaceuticals Corporation) (“Tekmira”) and Alnylam, dated January 8, 2007 (“Effective Date”) (“Tekmira Agreement”)

Brief Summary of Technology Covered by License:

 

 

Tekmira (f.k.a. Inex Pharmaceuticals Corp.) granted Alnylam a license relating to liposomal delivery of siRNA and miRNA products. Alnylam granted Tekmira (i) an option to obtain exclusive, royalty-bearing, worldwide licenses under its fundamental siRNA intellectual property for 3 genetic targets and (ii) an exclusive, royalty bearing license to certain intellectual property relating to immunostimulatory RNA oligonucleotide compositions (“IOC Technology”). Alnylam retained certain rights to participate with Tekmira in commercialization of IOC Technology. In addition, Alnylam provided funding for a 2-year formulation development collaboration with Tekmira, a multi-year loan for capital expenditure purposes, and Tekmira will provide exclusive manufacturing services for Alnylam’s development programs up until completion of Phase 2 clinical studies.

Limitations on Scope of License (Sections 6.1 and 6.4)

• The license granted to Alnylam is limited to an exclusive, royalty-bearing, worldwide license under Inex Technology, Inex Collaboration IP and Tekmira’s interest in Joint Collaboration IP to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize Alnylam Royalty Products in the Alnylam Field, subject to (a) Tekmira’s non-exclusive license under Alnylam’s rights in Inex Technology and Collaboration IP for purposes of performing Tekmira’s obligations under the Collaboration with respect to Alnylam Royalty Products, and the Manufacturing Activities, and (b) Tekmira’s exclusive, worldwide license under Alnylam’s rights in Inex Technology and Collaboration IP to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize Inex Development Products (as defined below) in the Alnylam Field.

• Any license granted by Alnylam to a Third Party under Alnylam RNAi Technology and Alnylam Collaboration IP would be subject to a non-exclusive, worldwide license granted to Tekmira for purposes of performing Tekmira’s obligations under the Collaboration with respect to Alnylam Royalty Products, and the Manufacturing Activities.

• Any license granted by Alnylam to a Third Party under Alnylam Core Patent Rights, Alnylam Lipidoid Patent Rights, Alnylam Collaboration IP and Alnylam’s interest in Joint Collaboration IP would be subject to an exclusive, worldwide license granted to Tekmira to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize RNAi Products directed to up to three (3) Targets (each such Target, an “Inex Development Target,” and such RNAi Products, the “Inex Development Products”) which Tekmira may select (as described below) in the Alnylam Field. During the Selection Term, Tekmira has the right to nominate a Target, subject to (a) Alnylam’s contractual obligation to a Third Party that would be breached by the inclusion of such Target as an Inex Development Target under

 

Page 7 of 61

 


the Tekmira Agreement, and (b) Alnylam’s determination after good faith review of its ongoing or planned scientific and/or business activities that such Target is a Target of interest to Alnylam. If neither of these criteria apply, the Target is deemed to have been successfully nominated as an “Inex Development Target” and Alnylam is obligated to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts consistent with the terms of the Novartis Agreement to obtain Novartis’ consent to such selection. If an Inex Development Target is not available for license, then Tekmira may nominate an additional Target, until an aggregate of 3 Inex Development Targets have been identified and approved for selection. If all 3 Inex Development Targets have not been approved for selection by the expiration of the Selection Term, the Selection Term will be extended until the earlier of (i) the date on which an aggregate of 3 such Inex Development Targets have been identified and approved for selection, and (ii) January 8, 2014.

• Any license granted by Alnylam to a Third Party under Alnylam IOC Technology, Alnylam Collaboration IP and Alnylam’s interest in Joint Collaboration IP would be subject to an exclusive license granted to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize IOC Products in the Inex IOC Field in and for the United States.

Restrictions on Sublicensing by Alnylam (Sections 6.2 and 6.4)

• Alnylam may grant sublicenses to Third Parties to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize Alnylam Royalty Products; provided, that (i) with respect to any sublicense of Alnylam’s rights under Section 6.1.1(a) (i.e., the exclusive license under Inex Technology to develop and commercialize Alnylam Royalty Products in the Alnylam Field) of the Tekmira Agreement in respect of any Alnylam Royalty Product for which Tekmira has not initiated Manufacturing of batches of finished dosage form for GLP toxicology studies, Alnylam is required to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to facilitate a business discussion between Tekmira and Alnylam’s Sublicensee (other than Tekmira or its Affiliates) with respect to the provision of manufacturing services by Tekmira to such Sublicensee; and (ii) with respect to any sublicense of Alnylam’s rights under Section 6.1.1(a) of the Tekmira Agreement in respect of any Alnylam Royalty Product for which Tekmira has initiated Manufacturing of batches of finished dosage form for GLP toxicology studies, Alnylam’s Sublicensee (other than Tekmira or its Affiliates) will be required to obtain its requirements of the bulk finished dosage form of such Alnylam Royalty Product from Tekmira on the terms set forth in Article 5 of the Tekmira Agreement. However, Tekmira agrees to negotiate in good faith with Alnylam and/or Alnylam’s Sublicensee either an alternate or modified supply arrangement or the release of such Sublicensee from such exclusive supply obligation in return for reasonable compensation to Tekmira.

• Each license and/or sublicense granted by Alnylam under the Tekmira Agreement to develop, manufacture and commercialize Alnylam Royalty Products must be subject and subordinate to the terms and conditions of the Tekmira Agreement and must contain terms and conditions consistent with those in the Tekmira Agreement, including, without limitation, the requirements of Section 6.4 of the Tekmira Agreement (see below). Commercializing Sublicensees are also required to: (i) submit applicable sales or other reports consistent with those required under the Tekmira Agreement; (ii) comply with an

 

Page 8 of 61

 


audit requirement similar to the requirement set forth in Section 7.6 of the Tekmira Agreement; and (iii) comply with the confidentiality and non-use provisions of Article 8 of the Tekmira Agreement with respect to both Parties’ Confidential Information. If Alnylam becomes aware of a material breach of any sublicense by a Third Party Sublicensee, Alnylam is required to promptly notify Tekmira of the particulars of same and take all Commercially Reasonable Efforts to enforce the terms of such sublicense.

• Section 6.4 of the Tekmira Agreement states that all licenses and other rights granted to Alnylam with respect to Inex Technology under Article 6 of the Tekmira Agreement are subject to (i) the rights granted to Tekmira, and to Tekmira’s ability to grant rights to Alnylam under the Inex In-Licenses, and (ii) the provisions of the UBC Sublicense Documents governing or relating to the rights sublicensed to Alnylam.

Diligence and Annual Reports (Section 6.7)

• Alnylam is required to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to Develop and Commercialize an Alnylam Royalty Product.

• Alnylam is required to deliver to Tekmira an annual report, due no later than December 31 of each Contract Year during the Agreement Term, which summarizes the major activities undertaken by Alnylam during the preceding 12 months to Develop and Commercialize its Royalty Products in the applicable field. The report will include an outline of the status of any such Royalty Products in clinical trials and the existence of any sublicenses with respect to such Royalty Products which have not been previously disclosed.

• In-Licensing IP: To the extent applicable, Alnylam must comply with Sections 2.6(b) and (c) when acquiring or licensing rights from Third Parties. In the course of acquiring or licensing additional Broad RNAi Intellectual Property or any other Alnylam Intellectual Property covering a Collaboration Product, Alnylam must use its best efforts to ensure that such rights include the right to sublicense to Novartis such Broad RNAi Intellectual Property or other Alnylam Intellectual Property. (Sections 2.6(d), 3.1(f))

• Technology Transfer: Alnylam will periodically deliver to Novartis all Alnylam Intellectual Property specifically relating to the Discovered RNAi Compounds, relating to the Research Collaboration, or otherwise necessary or useful to the Discovery, Development, Commercialization or Manufacture of Discovered RNAi Compounds or Collaboration Products. Once Novartis acquires the Adoption License, Alnylam will periodically deliver to Novartis all Broad RNAi Intellectual Property. The deliveries will include un-redacted copies of agreements that directly or indirectly grant or restrict rights in Alnylam Intellectual Property, which may be redacted to comply with confidentiality obligations and to exclude terms that do not relate to Novartis’s rights or obligations; provided, that Alnylam will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Novartis is granted access to un-redacted copies of such agreements.

• Alnylam may not assign, license or otherwise grant any rights or dispose of any Broad RNAi Intellectual Property or other Alnylam Intellectual Property covering a Collaboration Product without making such disposition expressly subject to Novartis’s rights. (Section 3.1(g))

IP Ownership, Prosecution and Enforcement (Section 6)

• Novartis owns all IP jointly created by the parties in the Research Collaboration. Novartis grants Alnylam a worldwide, non-exclusive, sublicenseable (solely to Controlled Contractors) license under such jointly-created IP that is Broad RNAi Intellectual Property, to engage in any and all research activities directed to human, veterinary or agricultural applications.

 

Page 23 of 61


• Novartis has a step-in right to prosecute Alnylam Patent Rights that pertain to a Discovered RNAi Compound or a Licensed Product.

• Alnylam will promptly report in writing to Novartis any known or suspected infringement or misappropriation of Alnylam Intellectual Property and will provide Novartis with all available evidence supporting such infringement or misappropriation.

• Alnylam has the right to protect the Alnylam Intellectual Property, and Alnylam will consult with Novartis regarding the status of any such action and will provide Novartis with copies of all material documents relating to such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Novartis has the sole and exclusive right to initiate a suit under Alnylam Intellectual Property to protect a Discovered RNAi Compound, a Licensed Product or IP created solely by Novartis or jointly by Novartis and Alnylam in the Research Collaboration; Alnylam must provide reasonable assistance at Novartis’ request. Recoveries will be shared in a specified manner.

• Novartis and Alnylam will cooperate in responding to a claim challenging the validity of any Alnylam Patent Right covering a Discovered RNAi Compound or a Licensed Product.

Scope of License (Section 1.1)

• Alnylam’s non-exclusive, world-wide, sublicensable license is limited to a license to research, develop, make, have made, use, have used, import, have imported, sell, offer for sale and have sold Licensed Products for human and animal therapeutics.

• Rockefeller Patent Rights were developed with funding from the U.S. National Institutes of Health. The United States government retains rights in such intellectual property, including, but not limited to, requirements that products, which result from such intellectual property and are sold in the United States, must be substantially manufactured in the United States.

Certain Sublicense Terms (Section 1.5)

 

  Alnylam will only have the right to grant sublicenses if such sublicense (a) is granted in conjunction with a license or sublicense of Alnylam’s rights under proprietary intellectual property that is in addition to the Rockefeller Patent Rights, and (b) is granted in connection with a bona fide collaboration with one or more third parties established by written agreement that is for purposes of research and/or development of products under a jointly prepared research plan.

 

  Alnylam will prohibit the sublicensee from further sublicensing and require the sublicensee to comply with the terms and conditions of the Tuschl Agreement (other than Alnylam’s payment and reporting obligations).

Brief Summary of Technology Covered by License:

M.I.T. granted Alnylam exclusive rights to develop and commercialize for human RNAi therapeutics certain technology relating to novel lipid compositions that are potential components of cationic liposomal formulations for cellular delivery of oligonucleotides. The technology was developed in the laboratory of Professor Robert Langer.

Limitations on Scope of License (Sections 2.1, 2.3 and 2.5)

• The license granted to Alnylam is limited to a exclusive (for the Exclusive Period), worldwide license under the Patent Rights to develop, make, have made, use and import Library Products and Licensed Processes to develop, make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, lease, and import Licensed Products in the Field and to develop and perform Licensed Processes in the Field.

• Alnylam does not have the right to sell or offer for sale the Library Products separately from a sale or offer for sale of a Licensed Product.

• MIT retains the right to practice under the Patent Rights for research, teaching, and educational purposes. The U.S. federal government retains a royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to practice any government-funded invention claimed in any Patent Rights as set forth in 35 USC 201-211, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, including the requirement that Library Products, whether or not part of Licensed Products, used or sold in the U.S. must be manufactured substantially in the U.S.

• The Patent Rights may not be asserted against non-for-profit research institutions that practice the Patent Rights for research funded by (i) the institutions themselves, (ii) not-for profit foundations, or (iii) any federal, state or municipal government. Alnylam may assert the Patent Rights against not-for-profit research institutions only if the infringement activity of the not-for-profit research institution was performed in the fulfillment of research sponsored by a for-profit entity and the assertion of infringement must be limited to those specific activities.

Restrictions on Sublicensing by Alnylam (Sections 2.1 and 2.3)

• Alnylam may grant sublicenses under commercially reasonable terms and conditions only during the Exclusive Period. Any sublicenses by Alnylam may extend past the expiration date of the Exclusive Period, but any exclusivity of such sublicense will expire upon the expiration of the Exclusive Period.

 

Page 46 of 61


• The sublicense must incorporate terms and conditions sufficient to enable Alnylam and its Affiliates to comply with the MIT Agreement. Such sublicenses will also include provisions to provide that if Sublicensee brings a Patent Challenge against MIT (except as required under a court order or subpoena), Alnylam may terminate the sublicense.

• Upon termination of the MIT Agreement, any Sublicensee not then in default will have the right to seek a license from MIT, and MIT agrees to negotiate such licenses in good faith under reasonable terms and conditions.

• Alnylam may permit third parties (i) to use Library Products and Licensed Processes for the purpose of research with academic or nonprofit institutions and contract research, including for the conduct of clinical trials of a Licensed Product, and (ii) to sell Licensed Products under an agency, consignment or equivalent arrangement, wherein such rights are not sublicense rights.

• Alnylam will promptly furnish MIT with a fully signed photocopy of any sublicense agreement, which copy may be redacted except with respect to terms directly relevant to Alnylam’s obligations under the MIT Agreement.

Diligence and Reporting (Sections 3.1 and 3.2)

• Sublicensees are required to use diligent efforts to develop Library Products and Licensed Products and to introduce Licensed Products into the commercial market; thereafter Sublicensees are required to make Licensed Products reasonably available to the public. Specifically, the following obligations must be fulfilled:

• First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product within [...***...] for each such Licensed Product.

• If any Sublicensee is determined to have failed to fulfill any obligation under Sections 3.1(a) and 3.1(c) — (g) above, MIT may treat such failure as a material breach, subject to any changes to such diligence requirements as may be mutually-agreed by the parties below.

• If Alnylam anticipates a failure to meet an obligation set forth in Section 3.1(c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) above will occur, Alnylam will promptly advise MIT, and representatives of each party will meet to review the reasons for anticipated failure. Alnylam and MIT will enter into a written amendment to the MIT Agreement with respect to any mutually agreed upon change(s) to the relevant obligation. If, after good faith discussion, Alnylam and MIT are unable to agree upon an amendment to the obligation, Alnylam, at its discretion, may elect to extend the due date to meet the obligation for such diligence obligation by one year by providing written notice to MIT along with payment in the amount of $[...***...].

• If a Patent Challenge is brought against Alnylam by a third party, MIT, at its option, will have the right within 20 days after commencement of such action to take over the sole defense of the action. If MIT does not exercise this right, Alnylam may take over the sole defense of such action.

• So long as Alnylam remains the exclusive licensee of the Patent Rights in the Field, Alnylam will have the sole right to sublicense any alleged infringer in the Field for future use of the Patent Rights in accordance with Alnylam’s rights under and the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any upfront fees as part of such sublicense will be shared equally between Alnylam and MIT; other revenues to Alnylam pursuant to such sublicense will be treated as set forth in Article 4 of the MIT Agreement.

Consequences of a Patent Challenge by Sublicensee (Sections 12.5 and 4.3)

• If a Sublicensee brings a Patent Challenge against MIT (except as required under a court order or subpoena), MIT may send a written demand to Alnylam to terminate the sublicense. If Alnylam fails to so terminate such sublicense within 30 days of MIT’s demand, MIT may immediately terminate the MIT Agreement and/or the license granted thereunder.

• Notwithstanding the foregoing, if MIT decides not to terminate the MIT Agreement and the Patent Challenge is successful, Alnylam will have no right to recoup any royalties paid during the period of challenge. If the Patent Challenge is unsuccessful, Alnylam will reimburse MIT for all of its costs and expenses it incurred as a result of such Patent Challenge, including without limitation attorneys fees, court costs, litigation related disbursements, and third party and expert witness fees (collectively, “Litigation Costs”). Reimbursement for Litigation Costs will be made within thirty (30) days of receipt of one or more invoices from MIT for such Litigation Costs.
