(a)Either Party may terminate this Agreement in its entirety at any time upon written notice to the other Party if the other Party is in material breach of this Agreement and such material breach is not cured within [*] (in the case of a payment breach) or [*] days (in the case of all other breaches) after written notice thereof is delivered to the defaulting or breaching Party; provided, however, if such breach (other than a payment breach) is not reasonably curable within [*] days and if the breaching Party is making a bona fide effort to cure such breach, such termination shall be delayed for a time period to be agreed by the Parties in order to permit the breaching Party a reasonable period of time to cure such breach (but in no event will such additional time period be more than [*] days).  Any notice provided pursuant to this Section 13.2 shall identify with particularity the alleged breach and state the non-breaching Party’s intent to terminate this Agreement if such breach is not cured.
(b)If the allegedly breaching Party disputes in good faith the allegation that there has been a material breach, then such Party may contest the allegation in accordance with Section 14.3 and, provided that the allegedly breaching Party gives written notice to the other Party of such dispute and initiates dispute resolution procedures under Section 14.3 during the applicable cure period, such cure period will toll upon the initiation of such dispute resolution procedures.  If, as a result of such dispute resolution process, it is finally determined pursuant to Section 14.3 that the breaching Party committed a material breach of this Agreement, then the applicable cure period will resume and if the breaching Party does not cure such material breach within the remainder of such cure period (as such cure period may be extended pursuant to Section 13.2(a)), then this Agreement will terminate effective as of the expiration of such cure period.  This Agreement will remain in full force and effect during the pendency of any such dispute resolution proceeding and the applicable cure period.  Any such dispute resolution proceeding will not suspend any obligations of either Party hereunder and each Party will use reasonable efforts to mitigate any damages. If, as a result of such dispute resolution proceeding, it is determined that the breaching Party did not commit such material breach (or such material breach was cured in accordance with Section 13.2(a)), then no termination of this Agreement will be effective, and this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.

Agreement, in which case such Know-How or Patent will be “Controlled” by ObsEva for purposes of this Agreement.
(c)In the event of a Change of Control of ObsEva or other assignment of this Agreement by ObsEva to a Third Party pursuant to Section 14.9(a) that involves [*], then (i) at the request of Organon, (x) the JAC shall be disbanded, (y) any or all provisions of this Agreement providing for any delivery by Organon to ObsEva of information relating to activities contemplated by this Agreement shall terminate, save only for the provisions of Section 8.1, and (z) ObsEva and its acquirer in the Change of Control will adopt reasonable procedures to be agreed upon in writing to prevent disclosure of Confidential Information of Organon to such acquirer; and (ii) any information, documents or reports provided by Organon that ObsEva is otherwise required to provide to Merck Serono pursuant to this Agreement shall be provided directly to Merck Serono by Organon.  As used herein, “Change of Control” means, with respect to ObsEva, a transaction with a Third Party(ies) involving, (A) the acquisition, merger or consolidation, directly or indirectly, of ObsEva, and, immediately following the consummation of such transaction, the shareholders or other owners of ObsEva, immediately prior thereto hold, directly or indirectly, as applicable, shares of capital stock of the surviving company representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding shares of such surviving or continuing company, (B) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets or business of ObsEva, or (C) a Person, or group of Persons acting in concert, acquire more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting equity securities or management control of ObsEva.

14.3Dispute Resolution. Any dispute between the Parties in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith (a “Dispute”) shall first be referred to the Executive Officers of the Parties, who shall confer in good faith on the resolution of the Dispute.  Any final decision mutually agreed upon by the Executive Officers shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties.  If the Executive Officers are not able to agree on the resolution of a Dispute within [*] (or such other period of time as mutually agreed by the Executive Officers) after such Dispute was first referred to them, then such Dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce in force on the date on which the Notice of Arbitration is submitted (the “Rules”). The arbitration will be conducted by a panel of three (3) arbitrators appointed in accordance with the Rules; provided that each Party will, [*] after the institution of the arbitration proceedings, appoint an arbitrator, and such arbitrators will together, within [*], select a third (3rd) arbitrator as the chairperson of the arbitration panel.  The seat of the arbitration shall be Geneva. The arbitral proceedings shall be conducted in English. Except as may be required by Applicable Law or to protect or pursue a legal right, neither a Party nor any arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties. Each Party shall bear its own legal costs for its counsel and other expenses, and the Parties shall equally share the costs of the arbitration; provided that the arbitral tribunal shall have the discretion to provide that the losing Party is responsible for all or a portion of such arbitration and legal costs, and in such case the arbitral award will so provide.  The arbitrators shall have no power to award damages excluded pursuant to Section 12.5.  The

arbitral award shall be final and binding on the Parties and the Parties shall carry out the award without delay.  Judgment on the award so rendered may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 14.3 shall preclude either Party from seeking interim or provisional relief, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim equitable relief concerning a Dispute in any court of competent jurisdiction before or after the initiation of an arbitration as set forth herein, if necessary to protect the interests of such Party. The Parties agree that any dispute concerning the propriety of the commencement of the arbitration or the scope and applicability of the agreement to arbitrate shall be determined by the arbitrators.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that a Reversion Royalty Dispute shall be resolved by arbitration administered by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules and the Final Offer Supplementary Arbitration Rules, and the number of arbitrators in such arbitration shall be one (1).
14.4Entire Agreement; Modification.  This Agreement, including the Schedules hereto, is both a final expression of the Parties’ agreement and a complete and exclusive statement with respect to all of its terms.  This Agreement supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and communications, whether oral, written, or otherwise, concerning any and all matters contained herein (including [*].  This Agreement may only be modified or supplemented in a writing expressly stated for such purpose and signed by the Parties to this Agreement.

14.7Waiver.  The waiver by either Party of any right under this Agreement or of the failure to perform or of a breach by the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by such other Party whether of a similar nature or otherwise.  Any waiver by a Party of a particular term or condition will be effective only if set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition.
14.8Further Assurances. Each Party shall duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts and things, including the filing of such assignments, agreements, documents, and instruments, as may be necessary or as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with this Agreement or to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes hereof, or to better assure and confirm unto such other Party its rights and remedies under this Agreement.
14.9Assignment.  Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred by either Party, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); except that each Party may assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder without the other Party’s consent as follows:

14.10Accounting Standards.  Each Party shall calculate all amounts hereunder and perform other accounting procedures required hereunder applicable to it in accordance with the Accounting Standards normally used by such Party to calculate its financial position, in each case consistently applied by such Party.
14.11Severability.  If, for any reason, any part of this Agreement is adjudicated invalid, unenforceable, or illegal by a court of competent jurisdiction, such adjudication shall not affect or impair, in whole or in part, the validity, enforceability, or legality of any remaining portions of this Agreement.  The Parties will in such an instance use their best efforts to replace the invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision(s) with valid, enforceable, and legal provision(s) that best implement the original intent of the Parties and purposes of this Agreement.
14.12Notices.  Any notice to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and delivered either in person, or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid) requiring return receipt, or by internationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case to the Party to be notified at its address given below, or at any other address such Party may designate by prior written notice to the other in accordance with this Section 14.12.  Notice shall be deemed sufficiently given for all purposes upon the earliest of: (a) if personally delivered, the date of actual receipt; (b) if delivered by registered or certified mail, five (5) Business Days after the date of postmark; or (c) if delivered by overnight delivery service, the next day the overnight delivery service regularly makes deliveries.

14.13Force Majeure.  Neither Party shall be liable to the other for failure or delay in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement for the time and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by acts of God, earthquake, riot, civil commotion, terrorism, war, strikes or other labor disputes, fire, flood, epidemics, pandemics, the spread of infectious diseases, quarantines, failure or delay of transportation, default by suppliers or unavailability of raw materials, governmental acts or restrictions or any other reason which is beyond the control of the respective Party (“Force Majeure”). A Force Majeure may include reasonable measures affirmatively taken by a Party or its Affiliates to respond to any epidemic, pandemic, or spread of infectious disease, such as requiring employees to stay home, closures of facilities, delays of Clinical Trials, or cessation of activities in response to an epidemic or other Force Majeure event, to the extent such measures cause a failure or delay in the performance of a Party’s obligations under this Agreement.

Organon and ObsEva Enter Global License Agreement to Develop and Commercialize Ebopiprant (OBE022), an Investigational Agent Being Evaluated as a First-in-Class Treatment for Preterm Labor

Every year, an estimated 15 million babies are born preterm (before 37 completed weeks of gestation)i ; agent is being studied in an area of significant unmet need

Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 LR of the SIX Swiss Exchange

Jersey City, N.J., Geneva, Switzerland, July 27, 2021 - Organon (NYSE: OGN), a global women’s health company and ObsEva (NASDAQ: OBSV) (SIX: OBSN), a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving women’s reproductive health, today announced that the companies have entered into an agreement whereby Organon will license the global development, manufacturing and commercial rights to ebopiprant (OBE022). Ebopiprant is an investigational, orally active, selective prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) receptor antagonist being evaluated as a potential treatment for preterm labor by reducing inflammation and uterine contractions. If approved, it has potential to be a first-in-class innovation for this common and serious condition with no approved therapies for acute treatment of preterm labor in the United States.

“This development-stage asset is being studied in one of the most crucial unmet needs for women globally. As we build Organon’s women’s health research and development portfolio, the agreement strengthens our path to long term growth,” said Kevin Ali, Organon’s Chief Executive Officer. “Organon and ObsEva share a commitment to improve the lives of women around the world. Through Organon’s strong development, scientific and medical capabilities, our goal is to change the future for millions of mothers and babies.”

Organon intends to work with the scientific and medical communities and regulatory authorities in major markets, including the United States, to advance the clinical development and registration of ebopiprant.

Brian O’Callaghan, CEO of ObsEva, commented, "Organon is the ideal partner for the development and commercialization of ebopiprant and we see this agreement as an important step in advancing this investigational agent. Although preterm birth rates are on the rise, there are currently no other known compounds in development. That is why we are focused on evaluating this agent in an important area of unmet need. Together with the data generated to date, this agreement underscores the value of our program, and we look forward to executing on our shared vision."

Under the terms of the agreement, Organon will gain exclusive worldwide rights to develop and commercialize ebopiprant. ObsEva is entitled to receive tiered double-digit royalties on commercial sales as well as up to $500 million in upfront and milestone payments including $25 million to be paid at signing, up to $90 million in development and regulatory milestones and up to $385 million sales based milestones. Goldman Sachs acted as exclusive financial advisor to ObsEva.

About Ebopiprant

In November 2020, ObsEva announced positive results from PROLONG, the Phase 2a proof-of-concept, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of ebopiprant in preterm labor. In this study, 113 women with spontaneous preterm labor (gestational age between 24 and 34 weeks) were randomized and treated with atosiban (ex-U.S. standard of care) plus ebopiprant or atosiban plus placebo for 7 days. There were 83

(73%) women with singleton pregnancies and 30 (27%) with twin pregnancies. One hundred and forty-one neonates were born.

In the PROLONG study, ebopiprant reduced delivery in singleton pregnancies at 48 hours after the start of dosing by 55% compared to atosiban alone. Overall, 7/56 (12.5%) of women receiving ebopiprant delivered within 48 hours of starting treatment compared to 12/55 (21.8%) receiving placebo (OR 90% CI: 0.52 (0.22, 1.23)). In singleton pregnancies, 5/40 (12.5%) of women receiving ebopiprant delivered within 48 hours compared to 11/41 (26.8%) receiving placebo (OR 90% CI: 0.39 (0.15, 1.04)).  A modest effect on delivery at 7 days was seen in the singletons.

The incidence of maternal, fetal and neonatal adverse events were comparable between subjects in the ebopiprant group and the placebo group.

Ebopiprant (OBE022) was licensed from Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, in 2015.
