For clarity, however, if a discrepancy is identified by the accountant during the course of an audit and the Parties do not agree upon a resolution of such discrepancy, then the auditing Party’s accountant may re-inspect the books and records to the extent reasonably relevant to resolving such discrepancy.

7.6.2 The report of the independent certified public accountant shall be shared with the audited Party prior to distribution to the auditing Party solely for the audited Party to review the report and provide written feedback to the independent certified public accountant. The audited Party shall provide to the auditing Party any such feedback and such report shall be distributed to the auditing Party at the time the audited Party provides such feedback, and in any case [***] after sharing the report with the audited Party. The audited Party shall not otherwise correspond with the independent certified public accountant about such report prior to such report being provided to the auditing Party. The final audit report shall specify whether the amounts paid to the auditing Party during the audited period were correct or, if incorrect, the amount of any underpayment or overpayment. The audit report shall only contain the information relevant to support the statement as to whether the amounts due under this Agreement were calculated and paid accurately and shall not include any confidential or additional information that is ordinarily not included in the reports to the auditing Party disclosed to the auditor during the course of the audit and not necessary to convey information relevant to support the statement as to whether the amounts due under this Agreement were calculated and paid accurately.

7.6.3 If the review of such records reveals that the other Party has failed to accurately report information pursuant to Section 7.3 and 7.4, or the Reconciliation Procedures, or make any payment (or portion thereof) required under this Agreement, then the other Party shall pay, [***] after receipt of the final audit report by the audited Party, to the auditing Party any underpaid amounts due under Sections 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4, or the Reconciliation Procedures, or otherwise due under this Agreement, together with interest calculated in the manner provided in Section 7.10. If any such discrepancies are an underpayment of amounts due under this Agreement [***] of the amounts actually due for any Calendar Year, the other Party shall pay all reasonable costs incurred in conducting such review. If the audited Party disagrees with the findings of the audit report, the Parties will first seek to resolve the matter between themselves, and in the event they fail to reach agreement, the dispute resolution provisions set forth in ARTICLE XIII shall apply.

Any such Tax, to the extent withheld and paid to the appropriate Governmental Authority, shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Payee.

If the withholding tax rate is reduced according to the provisions of an applicable double tax treaty or regulations applicable thereto, no deduction or withholding shall be made (or a reduced amount shall be deducted or withheld), in each case as applicable, only if the Payor is timely furnished with necessary documents or certification by the Payee issued by the tax authority certifying that the payment is exempt from tax or subject to a reduced tax rate or the Payee otherwise satisfies the requirements to obtain the treaty benefit in question.

7.7.3 If Payor had a duty to withhold Taxes in connection with any payment it made to Payee under this Agreement but Payor failed to withhold, and such Taxes were assessed against and paid by Payor, then Payee will indemnify and hold harmless Payor from and against such Taxes, except to the extent such Taxes resulted from Payor’s negligent failure to withhold; provided, however, that Payor shall only be responsible for such Taxes to the extent such Taxes do not exceed the amount of Tax that Payor Would have withheld if it had received from Payee the documentation necessary to secure any available reduction in the rate of applicable Taxes. If Payor makes a claim under this Section 7.7.3, it will comply with the obligations imposed by Section 7.7.1 as if Payor had withheld Taxes from a payment to Payee.

7.7.4 The Parties acknowledge that Legend has provided to Janssen an IRS Form W-9 with respect to Legend US and agree that no Tax will be withheld from the US Upfront Payment. [***].

(d) is now, or hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act on the part of the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates in violation of this Agreement, generally known or available to the public, either before or after it is disclosed to the Receiving Party by the Disclosing Party; or

If and whenever any Confidential Information is disclosed in accordance with this Section 9.3, such disclosure shall not cause any such information to cease to be Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement, except to the extent that such disclosure results in a public disclosure of such information (other than by breach of this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Party intends to make a disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to Section 9.3(c) or Section 9.3(d) (other than to comply with Securities Disclosure Obligations, which disclosures are covered by Section 9.4.2), it will, except where impracticable or not legally permitted, give [***] days’ advance notice (or, if [***] days’ notice is not possible under the circumstances, reasonable advance notice) to the other Party of such disclosure, give the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to take whatever action it deems necessary to protect its Confidential Information and use not less than the same efforts to secure confidential treatment of such information as it would to protect its own confidential information from disclosure (but no less than reasonable efforts).

The Parties will use reasonable efforts in connection with such disclosure to seek the confidential treatment of any such provision or information. The Parties shall cooperate, each at its own expense, in such disclosure, including without limitation such confidential treatment request. The Parties will reasonably cooperate in responding promptly to any comments received from the Securities Authority with respect to such disclosure in an effort to achieve confidential treatment of redacted provisions or information; provided, however, that a Party shall be relieved of such obligation to seek confidential treatment for a provision or information requested by the other Party if such treatment is not achieved after the second round of responses to comments from the Securities Authority.

Each Party may, but is not obligated to, make a public announcement of the execution of this Agreement in the forms attached as Schedule 9.5.1A and Schedule 9.5.1B to this Agreement, which shall be issued in a mutually agreed way, after the Effective Date, while adhering to both Parties’ obligations under the respective local stock market and other legal regulations.

9.5.2 Further Publicity. Except as required to comply with applicable Law or as permitted by Section 9.3, 9.4 or 9.5.1, (i) if either Party intends to issue any press release or make other public statement disclosing any results or developments regarding the Products in the Field or other activities in connection with this Agreement, it shall give the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment [***] and shall consider any such comments in good faith and in the case of press releases, (ii) shall not issue such press release without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If a Party intends to issue such a press release or other public statement as required to comply with applicable Law, such Party will, except where impracticable or not legally permitted, give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, once information relating this Agreement has been publicly disclosed as permitted under this Agreement, neither Party shall be required to obtain the other Party’s consent or provide notice of its further public disclosure, provided that such information remains accurate and not misleading in all material respects at the time of such further public disclosure. The Parties shall not proactively or reactively make any statements to the media on [***] unless both Parties agree. If both Parties intend to issue press releases or make other public statements with respect to the same event or matter, then the Parties shall cooperate in good faith with respect to the timing of such releases or statements.

9.6 Prior Non-Disclosure Agreement. As of the Effective Date, the terms of this ARTICLE IX shall supersede the Mutual Confidentiality Agreement by and between Janssen Research & Development, LLC and Legend Biotech Co. Ltd. dated as of June 6, 2017 and the confidentiality terms of that certain letter agreement between the same entities dated on or about August 28, 2017. Any information disclosed pursuant to either of such agreements by a Party or its Affiliates that was deemed “Confidential Information” under either of such agreements shall be deemed Confidential Information of such Party under this Agreement.

9.7 Equitable Relief. Given the nature of the Confidential Information and the competitive damage that may result to a Party upon unauthorized disclosure, use or transfer of its Confidential Information to any Third Party, the Parties agree that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this ARTICLE IX. In addition to all other remedies, a Party shall be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief as a remedy for any breach or threatened breach of this ARTICLE IX.

9.8 Publications.

9.8.1 Global Publication Strategy. The JDC shall develop, and the JSC shall approve, a global publication strategy for the Development, CMC Development and Commercialization activities related to the Products in the Field (the “Global Publication Strategy”) that is consistent with the GDP, CMC Development Plans and the Commercialization Plans. The Parties agree that the Global Publication Strategy shall permit the Parties to publish the results of the Clinical Studies for the Product in the Field in scientific journals and to provide public notice consistent with industry practices including at least as much notice as stated in the Johnson & Johnson Policy of the Registration and Reporting of Results of Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Company Sponsored Clinical Studies. The publication and presentation of the results of Development and CMC Development carried out on the Products in the Field shall be governed by the Global Publication Strategy, and the Parties shall conduct such publication activities in accordance with the Global Publication Strategy. The Parties acknowledge that Legend has entered into agreements with Third Party clinical investigators prior to the Effective Date which permit such Third Parties to make publications regarding Products, and agree that the Global Publication Strategy shall reasonably accommodate the ability of Third Party clinical investigators, academic institutions and other similar entities to make such publications. Notwithstanding the foregoing (or Section 9.8.2 below), the Global Publication Strategy shall not be construed to limit a Party’s rights to make disclosures pursuant to Section 9.5 above.

9.8.2 Approval of Publications. Prior to publishing or presenting the results of any Clinical Studies involving the Products, each Party (the “Publishing Party”) shall provide to the other Party (the “Reviewing Party”) a copy of any proposed abstracts, manuscripts or summaries of presentations that such Publishing Party intends to publish or present (“Proposed Publications”). Each Party shall designate a Person or Persons who shall be responsible for reviewing (or having reviewed) all Proposed Publications submitted by the other Party. [***] a Reviewing Party’s designated Person shall notify the Publishing Party in writing whether the Reviewing Party has an objection to the Proposed Publications because the Reviewing Party reasonably believes it needs to seek patent protection. If a Reviewing Party notifies a Publishing Party that it has such an objection, the Publishing Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Reviewing Party to address such concern and, upon the Reviewing Party’s request, shall delay publication in order to enable the preparation and filing of a patent application on any patentable subject matter described in the manuscript for [***]; provided, however, that such delay shall not prejudice a Party’s timely prosecution and maintenance of its intellectual property rights hereunder. The Publishing Party shall reasonably consider any other suggestions of the Reviewing Party that are provided in a timely manner and, after doing so and after [***] requested for filing of a patent application, may proceed with the Proposed Publication. With respect to any proposed abstracts, manuscripts or summaries of presentations that investigators or other Third Parties propose to publish or present, such materials shall be subject to review under this Section 9.8.2, to the extent that Legend or Janssen, as the case may be, has the right to do so.

The controlling Party shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Products Liability Action without the consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

ARTICLE XIII

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

13.1 Exclusive Dispute Resolution Mechanism. The Parties agree that the procedures set forth in this ARTICLE XIII shall be the exclusive mechanism for resolving (i) any dispute that arises out of or in relation to or in connection with this Agreement, excluding any Committee Matter (which shall be subject to resolution under Section 2.8); and (ii) any issue relating to the interpretation, application, enforcement, termination or validity of this Agreement (any dispute or issue described in clause (i) and (ii), a “Dispute”). For clarity, a dispute regarding any of the following shall constitute a Dispute: (a) whether a matter is a Committee Matter; or (b) whether an exercise of final decision-making authority is made in accordance with Sections 2.8.3 and 2.8.5. Any Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with this ARTICLE XIII.

13.2 Resolution by Executive Officers. Except as otherwise provided in this ARTICLE XIII, in the event of any Dispute, the Parties shall first attempt in good faith to resolve such Dispute by negotiation and consultation between themselves. In the event that such Dispute is not resolved on such basis, either Party may, by written notice to the other Party, refer the Dispute to the Executive Officers for attempted resolution by good faith negotiation within [***] after such notice is received (unless otherwise agreed by the Parties). Each Party may, in its discretion, seek resolution of any and all Disputes that are not resolved under this Section 13.2 in accordance with Section 13.3.

13.3 Arbitration.

13.3.1 Arbitration. Any Dispute that has been referred to the Executive Officers for resolution in accordance with Section 13.2 and has not been resolved within the time specified in Section 13.2, will be submitted for final, binding resolution to arbitration pursuant to the Non-Administered Arbitration Rules then in effect for the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR”) (available at http://www.cpradr.org), or successor, except where those rules conflict with these provisions, in which case these provisions control. The arbitration will be held in [***].

13.3.2 Panel. The panel shall consist of three arbitrators chosen from the CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals (unless the Parties agree on the selection of the arbitrators) each of whom shall be [***]. In the event the aggregate damages sought by the claimant are stated to be [***], then a single arbitrator shall be chosen, having the same qualifications and experience specified above. Each arbitrator shall be impartial and independent of the Parties and shall abide by the Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes (available at http://www.adr.org/EthicsAndStandards).

 

-104-


13.3.3 Procedures if Arbitrator(s) Not Agreed. In the event the Parties cannot agree upon selection of the arbitrator(s), CPR will select arbitrator(s) as follows: CPR shall provide the Parties with a list of no less than [***] proposed arbitrators ([***] if a single arbitrator is to be selected) having the credentials referenced above. Within 25 days of receiving such list, the Parties shall rank at least [***] of the proposed arbitrators on the initial CPR list, after exercising cause challenges. The Parties may then jointly interview the [***] candidates ([***] if a single arbitrator is to be selected) with the highest combined rankings for no more than [***] each and, following the interviews, may exercise one peremptory challenge each. The panel will consist of the remaining three candidates (or one, if one arbitrator is to be selected) with the highest combined rankings. In the event these procedures fail to result in selection of the required number of arbitrators, CPR shall select the appropriate number of arbitrators from among the members of the various CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals, allowing each side challenges for cause and one peremptory challenge each.

13.3.4 Timing. The Parties agree to cooperate (i) to attempt to select the arbitrator(s) by agreement within [***] of initiation of the arbitration, including jointly interviewing the final candidates; (ii) to meet with the arbitrator(s) within [***] of selection; and (iii) to agree at that meeting or before upon procedures for discovery and as to the conduct of the hearing which will result in the hearing being concluded within no more than [***] after selection of the arbitrator(s) and in the award being rendered within [***] of the conclusion of the hearings, or of any post-hearing briefing, which briefing will be completed by both sides within [***] after the conclusion of the hearings. In any event, the Parties shall endeavor in good faith to complete any arbitration under this Section 13.3 within [***] months following the initiation of such arbitration.

13.3.5 Discovery. In the event the Parties cannot agree upon procedures for discovery and conduct of the hearing meeting the schedule set forth in Section 13.3.4, then the arbitrator(s) shall set dates for the hearing, any post-hearing briefing, and the issuance of the award in accordance with the Section 13.3.4 schedule as closely as practical. The arbitrator(s) shall provide for discovery according to those time limits, giving recognition to the understanding of the Parties that they contemplate reasonable discovery, including document demands and depositions, but that such discovery will be limited so that the schedule set forth in Section 13.3.4 may be met without undue burden. The arbitrator(s) shall determine what discovery will be permitted, consistent with the goal of limiting the cost and time which the Parties must expend for discovery, provided that the arbitrator(s) shall permit such discovery as the arbitrator(s) deem necessary to permit an equitable resolution of the dispute, which may in the arbitrator(s)’ discretion include requests for admission or interrogatories. The arbitrator(s) shall not order or require discovery against either Party of a type or scope that is not permitted against the other Party. The arbitrator(s) shall have power to exclude evidence on grounds of hearsay, prejudice beyond its probative value, redundancy, or irrelevance and no award shall be overturned by reason of any ruling on evidence. A transcript of the testimony adduced at the hearing shall be made and shall, upon request, be made available to either Party.

13.3.6 Motions; Independent Expert. The arbitrator(s) are expressly empowered to decide dispositive motions in advance of any hearing, including motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment, and shall endeavor to decide such motions as would a Federal District Judge sitting in the jurisdiction whose substantive law governs as set forth in Section 13.3.7. The arbitrator(s) may engage an independent expert with experience in the subject matter of the dispute to advise the arbitrator(s), but final decision-making authority shall remain in the arbitrator(s).

 

-105-


13.3.7 Decision of the Arbitrator(s). The arbitrator(s) shall decide the issues presented in accordance with the substantive law of New York and may not apply principles such as “amiable compositeur” or “natural justice and equity.” The arbitrator(s) shall render a written opinion stating the reasons upon which the award is based. No punitive or exemplary damages may be granted by the arbitrator(s).

In the event of a conflict between the GDP, CMC Development Plan, Manufacturing Plan or a Commercialization Plan, on the one hand, and this Agreement, on the other hand, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

For all purposes, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Janssen’s legal relationship under this Agreement to Legend shall be that of independent contractor and shall not constitute a partnership (except to the extent provided in Section 7.8.1), joint venture or agency.
