In consequence, as soon as possible after Genmab’s 50% Election, the Parties will agree on certain criteria that the JSC will apply to decide in good faith on any proposed changes to the Clinical Work Plan, including timing and budget. The JSC shall be responsible for making any changes and updates to the Clinical Work Plan. In the event of a disagreement between members of the Joint Steering Committee regarding the Clinical Work Plan, each Party may request that the CEOs of the Parties meet to seek to come to a resolution.

Any such 50% Election shall be subject to the reimbursement obligation contained in Section 3.4. In the event that the 50% Election is made by Genmab, Genmab further agrees to pay fifty percent (50%) of all future Development Costs; or
 
(ii)          Elects not to make the payment specified in Section 5.1.2(a)(i), in which case Genmab’s interest shall be reduced to twenty-five percent (25%) (the “25% Election”).

6.3         The Parties’ Obligations under the Clinical Work Plan. Each Party shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to perform its obligations with respect to the Development of the ADC in accordance with the Clinical Work Plan and budget and all such activities shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable laws, including as applicable, GCPs, GLPs and GMPs. As part of such efforts, each Party shall commit the personnel and facilities necessary to carry out its obligations under the Clinical Work Plan. Neither ADCT nor Genmab shall be required to undertake any activity relating to the Development of the ADC that it believes, in good faith, may violate any applicable law. The Parties acknowledge and agree that neither Party guarantees the success of the Development tasks undertaken hereunder.
 
6.4          Development Costs. The Parties will share equally all Development Costs for the ADC (which have been set forth in the Clinical Work Plan) with respect to the Development activities hereunder. The Parties are obligated to each fund [**] of costs associated with the Development of the ADC up until the final report for the Qualifying Phase I/II Clinical Trial. The JSC shall review on a [**] basis the Development Costs against the budget for such expenses in the applicable calendar year. If in the course of such [**] review the JSC determines that the actual amounts incurred for Development Costs are likely to be higher than budgeted, the JSC shall review the reasons for such potential overrun and determine whether such overrun is appropriate. The JSC may, if appropriate, amend the Clinical Work Plan to permit such overrun or to reduce such activities such that no overrun is incurred. If any costs for the Development activities result in a budget overrun of the applicable and approved annual joint budget in excess of [**], the JSC shall have the discretion to review such costs and designate them as Development Costs. Where the JSC does not so designate excess Development Costs, any such unapproved excess Joint Development Costs shall be borne by the Party incurring them. However, if the budget overrun is due to a delay or an advance in timing as to the planned activities, which activities are in accordance with the Clinical Work Plan, then such excess Development Costs shall be shared equally by the Parties regardless of which Party has incurred such costs. ADCT agrees at payments under the Spirogen Agreement, if any, shall not be part of the Development Costs and shall be borne solely by ADCT.
 
6.5        FTE Rate. The Parties agree that the mutual annual rate per FTE of either Party who performs Development, consultation or support work for the ADC as set forth in the Clinical Work Plan and to be used when calculating the Development Costs is [**].

(b)           The Development Cost Reports will be in such form as the JSC may reasonably agree from time to time.
 
(c)         Within [**] days of the receipt of both Parties’ Development Cost Reports, the JSC (or a Party’s Finance Manager or accountancy firm appointed by the JSC) shall provide to each Party one consolidated financial report for the Development Costs. The total costs incurred by both Parties shall be divided equally, with a subsequent balancing payment by one Party to the other to the extent necessary so that each Party bears its appropriate share of such Development Costs. The Party that is due for reimbursement of Development Costs in the preceding Calendar Quarter shall invoice the other Party. Such balancing payments by one Party to reimburse the other Party’s expenditures for Development Costs for the purposes of cost sharing under this Agreement shall be paid within [**] days following receipt of the invoice. Genmab shall be entitled to deduct from any payments to ADCT, its Out-of-Pocket Expenses to hedge currency risk pursuant to Section 6.7.2. In the event that Parties disagree with the reported costs and any over/under spend, approval shall be required by the JSC following receipt of the report by the JSC. A decision by the JSC shall be required within [**] days following its receipt of the consolidated report. Based on the JSC’s decision the Party due for reimbursement shall invoice the other Party and payment shall be made within [**] days of receipt of the invoice. Where the JSC does not so agree with the reported costs or over/under spend, any such unapproved spend can be referred to dispute resolution procedures provided in Article 16 by the Party having incurred such spend.
 
(d)         The Parties should provide proper support for expenses included on the invoice. Reasonable support documents for Out-of-Pocket Expenses include invoice or pro forma invoice from the Third Party vendors or subcontractors.

Where there is a payment to be made between the Parties to equilibrate expenditures under this Agreement, such payments shall be made in United States Dollars, assuming that the amount due was incurred on a straight line basis in the period between the last equilibration payment and the payment currently due. A cost equivalent to the Out-of-Pocket Expenses, if any, of hedging the exchange rate risk for this period may be claimed by Genmab at a rate equal to the USD:Euro [**] forward rate published in the Financial Times during such period plus a margin of [**] of that rate.
 
6.8          Audits and Records. Upon the written request of a Party (the “Requesting Party”) and not more than [**] in each calendar year, the other Party (the “Responding Party”) will permit an independent certified public accounting firm of national recognized standing, selected by the Requesting Party and reasonably acceptable to the Responding Party, at the Requesting Party’s expense, to have access during normal business hours to the records of the Responding Party as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the reports provided under Section 6.6.1, for any year ending not more than [**] prior to the date of such request.

6.9         Other Payments. Unless otherwise expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, payment due from one Party to another under this Agreement shall be paid within [**] days of receipt of invoice or from a date specified in the Agreement, whichever is earlier.

Any penalties or other charges imposed by a governmental authority as a result of a failure by the withholding party to pay such taxes, levies or other duties shall be the responsibility of the withholding party. The other Party will give the withholding Party any information necessary to determine such taxes, levies or other duties. No deduction shall be made, or a reduced amount shall be deducted, if the other Party furnishes a document from the appropriate governmental authorities to the withholding Party certifying that the payments are exempt from such taxes, levies or other duties or subject to reduced tax rates, according to the applicable convention for the avoidance of double taxation.
