Each Party shall provide reasonable assistance to the other Party in minimizing or claiming exemptions from, or refunds of, any such applicable withholding taxes, upon the other Party’s written request. |
9.5 | Records and Audit Rights. |
(a) | Each Party (the “Paying Party”) shall keep and cause its applicable Affiliates to keep (and, in the case of Infinity, Infinity shall cause the Infinity Related Parties to keep) complete, true and accurate books and records in accordance with its Accounting Standards in sufficient detail for the other Party (the “Paid Party”) to determine the payments due and costs incurred under this Agreement, including the Royalties and, as applicable, Profit-or-Loss payments. Each Paying Party will keep such books and records for at least three (3) years following the date of the payment to which they pertain. |
(b) | Upon the written request of the Paid Party and not more than once in each calendar year, the Paying Party shall permit an independent certified public accounting firm of nationally recognized standing selected by the Paid Party and reasonably acceptable to the Paying Party to have access during normal business hours to such of the records of the Paying Party and its applicable Affiliates (and, as applicable, the Infinity Related Parties) as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the payments due and costs incurred under this Agreement, including the royalty or Profit-or-Loss reports under this Agreement, for any period ending not more than three (3) years prior to the date of such request. The accounting firm shall disclose to the Paid Party only whether the payments due and costs incurred, including any payment reports (as applicable), are correct or incorrect and the specific details concerning any discrepancies. No other information shall be provided to the Paid Party without the prior consent of the Paying Party unless disclosure is required by law, regulation or judicial order. If the Paid Party determines that disclosure is required by law, regulation or judicial order, it shall, if permitted, give the Paying Party prior notice thereof reasonably sufficient for the Paying Party to seek a protective order against or limiting such disclosure. The Paying Party is entitled to require the accounting firm to execute a reasonable confidentiality agreement prior to commencing any such audit. |
38
(c) | The fees charged by such accounting firm shall be paid by the Paid Party;provided,however, that if the audit uncovers an underpayment by the Paying Party that exceeds five percent (5%) of the total payment owed, then the fees of such accounting firm shall be paid by the Paying Party unless the reason for such underpayment was a miscalculation on the part of the Paid Party. Any underpayments or unpaid amounts discovered by such audit or otherwise will be paid promptly by the Paying Party within thirty (30) days of the date the Paid Party delivers to the Paying Party such accounting firm’s written report, or as otherwise agreed upon by the Parties, plus interest calculated in accordance with Section 9.7 unless the reason for such underpayment was a miscalculation on the part of the Paid Party. In the event of an overpayment by the Paying Party, the Paying Party shall be entitled to credit such overpayment against any subsequent payment due to the Paid Party under this Agreement. |
9.6 | Payment. Payments shall be made by electronic wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Paid Party, as designated in writing to the Paying Party. |
9.7 | Late Payments. Subject to Section 9.5(c), interest shall be payable by the Paying Party on any amounts payable to the Paid Party under this Agreement which are not paid by the due date for payment. All interest shall accrue and be calculated on a daily basis (both before and after any judgment) at a rate per annum equal to three (3) percentage points above the then current “prime rate” in effect published inThe Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition (but in no event in excess of the maximum rate permissible under applicable law), for the period from the due date for payment until the date of actual payment. The payment of such interest shall not limit the Paid Party from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the lateness of any payment. |
9.8 | Other. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if at any time legal restrictions prevent the prompt remittance of part or all of the payments required hereunder in any country, payment shall be made through such lawful means or methods as the Parties may agree. The Parties hereby acknowledge that the value contributed by Intellikine to any Product developed and/or commercialized by or on behalf of Infinity and its Affiliates, licensees and sublicensees is the access to the Intellikine Intellectual Property and that the upfront payment and Milestone Payments described above in Article 8 and Profit-or-Loss will be payable by Infinity in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof regardless of whether or not a Product is covered by an Intellikine Patent or, as applicable, Navy Patent Right or UCSF Patent Right. |
10. | INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS |
10.1 | Ownership of Inventions. |
(a) | Ownership of all inventions arising from research, development or commercialization activities conducted by or on behalf of the Parties as |
39
contemplated by this Agreement, including Patent Rights and other intellectual property rights covering such inventions (collectively, “Inventions”), shall be as set forth in this Section 10.1. All Inventions made solely by employees, agents, contractors or consultants of a Party or its Affiliates (in the case of Infinity) or Intellikine Program Affiliates (in the case of Intellikine) shall be owned by such Party or its Affiliates. All Inventions made jointly by one or more employees, agents, contractors or consultants of Intellikine or Intellikine Program Affiliates, on the one hand, and Infinity or its Affiliates, on the other hand, shall be owned jointly by the Parties. Determination of inventorship of Inventions shall be made in accordance with U.S. patent laws. |
(b) | Intellikine’s rights in any Inventions, including its interest in any Inventions owned jointly by the Parties, shall be included in the Intellikine Intellectual Property for the purposes of this Agreement. Infinity’s rights in any Inventions, including its interest in any Inventions owned jointly by the Parties, shall be included in the Infinity Intellectual Property for the purposes of this Agreement. “Joint Patents” means all Patent Rights included in Inventions owned jointly by Intellikine and Infinity. “Joint Know-How” means all Know-How in Inventions owned jointly by Intellikine and Infinity. |
(c) | In the event of any disagreement between the Parties regarding the inventorship or ownership of any Invention, the Parties shall refer such dispute to a neutral Third Party patent attorney or other appropriately qualified person who is neither a current or former employee or director of, nor a current or former consultant or outside counsel to, either Party and who is mutually agreed upon by the Parties. |
(d) | The provisions of Sections 10.2 through 10.7 are subject to the terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Third Party licensed any of the relevant Intellikine Patents to Intellikine. If Infinity exercises the Navy Sublicense Option or the UCSF Sublicense Option in accordance with Section 2.6(a) or 2.6(b), references in Sections 10.2 through 10.7 to Intellikine Patents will include the Navy Patent Rights or the UCSF Patent Rights (but not the UCSF Other Patent Rights), as applicable, subject to the rights of Navy under the Navy Agreement and to the rights of The Regents under the UCSF Agreement, respectively. Intellikine shall use reasonable efforts to cause such licensors to reasonably cooperate with Intellikine and Infinity with respect to such provisions and to join any suit brought by Infinity with respect to any Third Party Infringement. |
10.2 | Patent Prosecution. |
(a) | Intellikine and Infinity will form a patent committee (“Patent Committee”) composed of one (1) representative from each Party and one (1) representative from each Party’s internal or outside patent counsel, as a forum for (i) regular review, discussion and approval of the filing, prosecution and maintenance activities and strategies for Intellikine Patents, (ii) the Prosecuting Party to provide the non-Prosecuting Party draft substantive patent submissions for Intellikine Patents and consider in good faith timely comments from the |
40
non-Prosecuting Party on such drafts, (iii) keep the non-Prosecuting Party regularly and reasonably informed of the status of Intellikine Patents, and (iv) provide the non-Prosecuting Party with copies of all substantive documentation submitted to, or received from, the patent offices in connection therewith. The Patent Committee shall meet as frequently as necessary for such purposes. Decisions of the Patent Committee shall be made by unanimous vote, with Infinity’s representatives to the Patent Committee collectively having one (1) vote and Intellikine’s representatives to the Patent Committee collectively having one (1) vote. In the event of a disagreement at the Patent Committee relating to a filing strategy or the prosecution or maintenance of [**]. To the extent that Intellikine wishes to have external patent counsel participate as one of its representatives on the Patent Committee, which counsel is not the then-current mutually acceptable outside patent counsel described in Section 10.2(b), Intellikine shall bear all expenses with respect to its external patent counsel’s participation as a representative on the Patent Committee. |
(b) | Subject to Section 10.2(d), (i) [**] (ii), in such capacity, the “Prosecuting Party”), in either case at Infinity’s expense (which, with respect to Intellikine’s activities, shall be limited to Intellikine’s Out-of-Pocket Expenses), to file, prosecute and maintain the Intellikine Patents (including, for the sake of clarity, the Joint Patents), using mutually acceptable outside patent counsel. As of the Effective Date, Intellikine’s current patent counsel, Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati P.C., is mutually acceptable to the Parties. The non-Prosecuting Party will assist the Prosecuting Party in connection with the filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Intellikine Patents, including by providing access to relevant persons and executing all required documentation. |
(c) | Infinity will have the sole right to file, prosecute and maintain any Infinity Patents (other than the Joint Patents, for which the provisions of Sections 10.2(b) and 10.2(d) shall apply) at its own expense. Intellikine will have the sole right to file, prosecute and maintain any Patents Rights within the Intellikine Additional Patents and the Intellikine Background Technology at its own expense. Each Party will keep the other Party regularly and fully informed through the Patent Committee of the status of such patents and patent applications. |
(d) | In the event that (i) the Prosecuting Party wishes to cease prosecution and/or maintenance of any Intellikine Patent (including, for the sake of clarity, any Joint Patent) in a country(ies) or (ii) Infinity does not wish to bear the costs with respect to the filing, prosecution or maintenance of an Intellikine Patent in a country(ies), the Prosecuting Party or Infinity, as applicable, shall provide the non-Prosecuting Party (in the case of clause (i)) or Intellikine (in the case of clause (ii)) with prompt written notice thereof, and the non-Prosecuting Party or Intellikine shall have the right, in its discretion and at its own expense, to assume responsibility for the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such Intellikine Patent in such country(ies). If Intellikine assumes responsibility for the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such Intellikine Patent in such country(ies) or retains such responsibility, at its own expense, the license granted to Infinity |
41
under Section 2.1 under such Intellikine Patent in such country(ies) shall terminate. If Infinity assumes responsibility for the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such Intellikine Patent in such country(ies) or retains such responsibility, at its own expense, the license granted to Infinity under Section 2.1 under such Intellikine Patent in such country(ies) shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms. The Prosecuting Party or Infinity, as applicable, will provide such written notice to the non-Prosecuting Party or Intellikine in sufficient time (but no less than thirty (30) days before any statutory bar date) to permit the non-Prosecuting Party or Intellikine to file, prosecute or maintain such Intellikine Patent at its own expense. |
(e) | Subject to the exclusive license of Intellikine’s joint ownership interest in the Joint Patents and Joint Know-How included in the Intellikine Intellectual Property granted to Infinity to the extent set forth in Section 2.1 during the Term and to the exclusive license of Infinity’s joint ownership interest in the Joint Patents and Joint Know-How included in the Infinity Intellectual Property granted to Intellikine to the extent (if any) set forth in Section 15.2(b), each Party may use, or license to any Third Party, any of its joint ownership interest in the Joint Patents or Joint Know-How for any other purpose without the other Party’s prior written consent and without any duty of accounting to the other Party,provided that neither Party shall assign to any Third Party its interest in any Joint Patent or Joint Know-How (except as contemplated by Section 18.1) without the other Party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). |
10.3 | Patent Infringement. |
(a) | Each Party will promptly notify the other Party in writing of (i) any actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation by a Third Party of any Intellikine Patent (including, for the sake of clarity, any Joint Patent) or any Infinity Patent of which it becomes aware, as a result of such Third Party’s research, development, manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale, other commercialization or importation of Licensed Compounds or Products in the Field in the Territory, including any certification filed by a Third Party pursuant to 21 U.S.C. §355(b)(2)(A)(iv) or 355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV) or any notice under comparable U.S. or foreign law (a “Paragraph IV Certification”), which references the foregoing; or (ii) an actual or threatened challenge to any Intellikine Patent or Infinity Patent by a Third Party. The Parties will consult with each other through each Party’s patent attorneys to determine the response to any such infringement or challenge by a Third Party of any Intellikine Patent (including, for the sake of clarity, any Joint Patent), including any Paragraph IV Certification which references the foregoing (collectively “Third Party Infringement”). |
(b) | To the fullest extent possible under applicable law, Infinity will have the first right, but not the obligation, to initiate proceedings or take other appropriate action in connection with the Third Party Infringement as it reasonably determines appropriate, and Intellikine shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice. Infinity may exercise such right itself or through any Infinity Related Party. |
42
(c) | If Infinity fails to initiate proceedings or take other appropriate action with respect to, or to terminate, Third Party Infringement of any such Intellikine Patent (i) within ninety (90) days following Infinity’s receipt of the notice of alleged infringement or (ii) solely with respect to a Paragraph IV Certification, within forty (40) days following Infinity’s receipt of notice thereof, Intellikine shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any such action at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice, and Infinity shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice. |
(d) | The Party conducting such action shall have full control over its conduct, including settlement thereof;provided,however, that, in no event shall either Party, through any court action or proceeding, any settlement arrangement or any proceeding, filing or communication with any patent office, admit the invalidity of, or otherwise impair the other Party’s rights in, any Intellikine Patent (including, for the sake of clarity, any Joint Patent) without the other Party’s prior written consent. |
(e) | At the request of the Party controlling a Third Party Infringement action, the other Party shall provide reasonable assistance and cooperation in connection therewith, including by executing any required documents, participating in discovery (including producing laboratory notebooks and other documentation and providing access to employees or relevant persons), and joining as a party to the action if required. The Party controlling such Third Party Infringement action shall reimburse the reasonable Out-of-Pocket Expenses of such other Party incurred in providing such assistance within thirty (30) days after receipt of a detailed and accurate invoice therefor. |
(f) | Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties as part of any cost sharing arrangement, any recoveries resulting from an action relating to a claim of Third Party Infringement (after payment of Out-of-Pocket Expenses related to such action incurred by each Party) will be retained by the Party that brought and controlled such action;provided,however, that, if Infinity brought and controlled such action, any portion of such recovery (after payment of each Party’s Out-of-Pocket Expenses related to such action) that is attributable to lost profits with respect to Products shall be subject to a royalty payment to Intellikine in accordance with Section 8.3 equal to the amount that would be due if such amount were Net Sales under this Agreement or, if relating to a Shared Product in the United States, shall be included in Net Sales for purposes of calculation of Profit-or-Loss underExhibit 5. |
(g) | Intellikine will have the sole right, but not the obligation, to initiate proceedings or take other appropriate action, as it reasonably determines appropriate, in connection with any actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation by a Third Party of any Intellikine Additional Patent or Intellikine Background Patent at its own expense, shall have full control over its conduct, including settlement thereof, and shall retain any recoveries resulting from such action or proceeding. |
43
10.4 | Defense of Actions. In the event that a declaratory judgment or similar action alleging the invalidity or non-infringement, or any request for, or filing or declaration of, any interference, opposition, reissue or reexamination, of any Intellikine Patent (including, for the sake of clarity, any Joint Patent) or Infinity Patent is initiated by any Third Party, each Party will promptly notify the other and the rights and responsibilities for defending against any such action shall be determined in the same manner as prosecution and maintenance of the relevant Intellikine Patents and Infinity Patents pursuant to Section 10.2. Intellikine shall have the sole right to defend against any declaratory judgment or similar action alleging the invalidity or non-infringement, or any request for, or filing or declaration of, any interference, opposition, reissue or reexamination, of any Intellikine Additional Patent or Intellikine Background Patent. |
10.5 | Trademarks. Infinity shall have the right to brand the Products using Infinity related trademarks and trade names and any other trademarks and trade names it determines appropriate for the Product, which may vary by country or within a country (“Product Marks”). Infinity and, if applicable, certain Infinity Related Parties, shall own all right, title and interest in and to the Product Marks and Infinity or the Infinity Related Parties may file, seek registration and maintain the Product Marks in the countries and regions they determine reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) with respect to any Product sold in the United States after receipt of Marketing Authorization for such Product in the United States, Infinity shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law and if reasonably practicable, include the Intellikine name or logo (“Intellikine Mark”) on the commercial packaging for such Product, and a disclosure that such Product is licensed from Intellikine, and (ii) Infinity and Infinity Related Parties may otherwise include the Intellikine Mark on the Product or any packaging, labels, containers, advertisements and other materials related thereto;provided,however, that any use of the Intellikine Mark shall be in compliance with Intellikine’s then-current reasonable trademark guidelines provided to Infinity. Intellikine hereby grants Infinity a non-exclusive, sublicenseable, royalty-free, transferrable (in accordance with Section 18.1) right to use the Intellikine Mark in connection with the foregoing. Intellikine or an Affiliate of Intellikine shall retain the ownership of the entire right, title and interest in and to the Intellikine Mark, and all goodwill associated with or attached to the Intellikine Mark arising out of the use thereof by Infinity, its Affiliates and sublicensees shall inure to the benefit of Intellikine. Infinity agrees that it will not contest, oppose or challenge Intellikine’s ownership of the Intellikine Mark. Infinity agrees that it will not at any time do or suffer to be done any act or thing that will in any way impair Intellikine’s ownership of or rights in and to the Intellikine Mark or any registration thereof or that may depreciate the value of the Intellikine Mark or the reputation of Intellikine. |
10.6 | Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act. |
(a) | Intellikine shall cooperate with Infinity in an effort to avoid loss of any Intellikine Patents which may otherwise be available under the provisions of the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 or comparable United |

States or foreign laws, including by executing any documents as may be reasonably required. In particular, Intellikine shall cooperate with Infinity in obtaining patent term restoration or supplemental protection certificates or their equivalents in any country and region (“Patent Term Extensions”) where applicable to the Intellikine Patents (including, for the sake of clarity, Joint Patents). Intellikine shall provide all reasonable assistance to Infinity, including permitting Infinity to proceed with applications for such in the name of Intellikine, if so required. |
(b) | After consultation by Infinity with Intellikine, Infinity shall have the sole right to determine, if applicable, for which, if any, of the Intellikine Patents the Parties will attempt to seek Patent Term Extensions for any Licensed Compound or Product. |

Infinity shall indemnify and hold Intellikine and its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents and assigns (each, an “Intellikine Indemnified Party”), harmless from and against Indemnified Losses incurred by any Intellikine Indemnified Party as a result of any Claims against any Intellikine Indemnified Party to the extent arising or resulting from: (a) the research, development or commercialization of the Licensed Compounds and/or Products by Infinity, any Infinity Indemnified Party or any Infinity Related Party; (b) the negligence or willful misconduct of Infinity or any Infinity Related Party in performing Infinity’s obligations or exercising Infinity’s rights under this Agreement; (c) the breach of any of the covenants, warranties and representations made by Infinity to Intellikine under this Agreement; or (d) if Infinity does not exercise the Navy Sublicense Option or the UCSF Sublicense Option under Section 2.6(a) or 2.6(b), respectively, the practice, use, infringement or misappropriation of any Navy Patent Rights or any UCSF Intellectual Property or UCSF Other Patent Right, as applicable, in the research, development or commercialization of the Licensed Compounds and/or Products. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Infinity shall not be responsible for the indemnification of any Intellikine Indemnified Party: (A) to the extent that the Indemnified Losses of such Intellikine Indemnified Party were caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of such Intellikine Indemnified Party, or (B) to the extent that the Indemnified Losses of such Intellikine Indemnified Party were caused by any breach by Intellikine of its covenants, obligations, warranties or representations pursuant to this Agreement. |
17.3 | Indemnification Procedure. |
(a) | Any Infinity Indemnified Party or Intellikine Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder (“Indemnified Party”) shall notify the Party against |
61
whom indemnification is sought (“Indemnifying Party”) in writing reasonably promptly after the assertion against the Indemnified Party of any Claim in respect of which the Indemnified Party intends to base a claim for indemnification hereunder, but the failure or delay so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation or liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend or resolve such Claim is adversely affected thereby. |
(b) | Subject to the provisions of Sections 17.3(d) and (e) below, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice given to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice from the Indemnified Party of any Claim, to assume the defense and handling of such Claim, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense, in which case the provisions of Section 17.3(c) below shall govern. |
(c) | If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense and handling of such Claim: The Indemnifying Party shall select counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party in connection with conducting the defense and handling of such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall defend or handle the same in consultation with the Indemnified Party, and shall keep the Indemnified Party timely apprised of the status of such Claim. The Indemnified Party shall not settle such Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, agree to a settlement of such Claim which could lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, or would involve any admission of wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party, at the request and expense of the Indemnifying Party, and shall be entitled to participate in the defense and handling of such Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Indemnifying Party fails to conduct the defense and handling of any Claim in good faith after having assumed such, then the provisions of Section 17.3(e) below shall govern. |
(d) | If the Indemnifying Party does not give written notice to the Indemnified Party, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice from the Indemnified Party of any Claim, of the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense and handling of such Claim, the provisions of Section 17.3(e) below shall govern. |
(e) | Unless Section 17.3(c) applies: The Indemnified Party may, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, select counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party in connection with conducting the defense and handling of such Claim and defend or handle such Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate;provided,however, that the Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party timely apprised of the status of such Claim and shall not settle such Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle such Claim |
62
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party defends or handles such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnified Party’s request but at no expense to the Indemnified Party, and shall be entitled to participate in the defense and handling of such Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. |
(f) | In the event a Claim is based partially on an indemnified claim and partially on a non-indemnified claim or based partially on a claim indemnified by one Party and partially on a claim indemnified by the other Party, any payments in connection with such Claim shall be apportioned between the Parties in accordance with the degree of cause attributable to each Party. |
(g) | Nothing in this Section 17 will act to negate any obligation under common law of either Party to mitigate damages with respect to any Claim for which such Party is seeking indemnification from the other Party hereunder. |
17.4 | Special, Indirect and Other Losses. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSS OF PROFITS SUFFERED BY THE OTHER PARTY, EXCEPT FOR LIABILITY FOR (A) BREACH OF ARTICLE 12, OR (B) TO THE EXTENT ANY SUCH DAMAGES ARE REQUIRED TO BE PAID TO A THIRD PARTY PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 17.1 THROUGH 17.3 AS PART OF A CLAIM (AS DEFINED IN SECTION 17.1). IN NO EVENT WILL PAYMENTS DUE UNDER SECTIONS 5.5, 5.7, 7 AND 8 BE CONSIDERED LOST PROFITS. |
17.5 | Insurance. Each Party, at its own expense, shall maintain liability insurance (or self-insure) with respect to its activities hereunder in an amount consistent with industry standards during the Term and for six (6) years thereafter. Each Party shall provide a certificate of insurance (or evidence of self-insurance) evidencing such coverage to the other Party upon request. |
18. | GENERAL PROVISIONS |
18.1 | Assignment; Change of Control. |
(a) | Neither Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the other Party’s prior written consent, except that (i) either Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any part hereof to one or more of its Affiliates without the consent of any other Party,provided that the assigning Party shall remain liable and responsible to the non-assigning Party for the performance and observance of all such duties and obligations by such Affiliate; and (ii) either Party may assign this Agreement in its entirety to a Third Party successor to all or substantially all of its business relating to Licensed Compounds and Products, whether by merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or otherwise and whether this Agreement is actually assigned or is assumed by the acquirer by operation of law, including in the context of a reverse triangular merger and in the |
63
case of Intellikine, if there is an Intellikine Holding Company, such a transaction effected through such Intellikine Holding Company. The assigning Party shall provide the other Party with prompt written notice of any such assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any attempted assignment in contravention of the foregoing shall be void. |
(b) | In connection with a transaction described in Section 18.1(a)(ii): (1) the “Acquired Party” means the Party that is a party to such transaction; (2) the “Acquired Party Pre-Existing Affiliates” means the Affiliates of the Acquired Party existing immediately prior to the closing of such transaction; (3) the “Acquirer” means the acquiring Third Party in such transaction; (4) the “Acquirer Affiliates” means all Affiliates of the Acquirer other than, following such transaction, the Acquired Party and the Acquired Party Pre-Existing Affiliates; and (5) “Non-Acquired Party” means the Party that is not a party to such transaction. In the event of a transaction described in Section 18.1(a)(ii): (i) intellectual property rights of the Acquirer and the Acquirer Affiliates shall not be included in the technology subject to the rights and licenses granted hereunder, and (ii) the Acquirer and the Acquirer Affiliates shall not obtain rights or access to the Patent Rights or Know-How of the Non-Acquired Party or its Affiliates which are subject to the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement, unless such rights are sublicensed by the Acquired Party to the Acquirer or the Acquirer Affiliates to the extent permitted herein. If, following such transaction, the Acquired Party assigns or causes the assignment to one of its Affiliates (including the Acquirer or any Acquirer Affiliate) of the Patent Rights and Know-How of the Acquired Party or the Acquired Party Pre-Existing Affiliates, which Patent Rights and Know-How are subject to the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement to the Non-Acquired Party (the “Assigned IP”), (A) any such Assigned IP shall remain subject to the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement to such Non-Acquired Party, (B) the Patent Rights subject to the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement to the Non-Acquired Party shall include any Patent Rights of the Acquirer or any of its Affiliates (including any Acquirer Affiliate) that cover, generically or specifically, inventions necessary or useful to develop, manufacture, use, sell, offer to sell or import Licensed Compounds or Products in the Field, which inventions (x) are developed by any individuals who were employees of the Acquired Party or any Acquired Party Pre-Existing Affiliates as of the closing of such transaction, (y) are developed after the closing of such transaction during any period that such individual remains an employee of the Acquired Party or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquirer or any Acquirer Affiliate) and (z) claim priority to any Patent Right within the Assigned IP, and (C) the Know-How subject to the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement to the Non-Acquired Party shall include any Know-How necessary or useful to research, develop, manufacture, use, sell, offer to sell or import Licensed Compounds or Products, which Know-How is developed by any individuals who were employees of the Acquired Party or any Acquired Party Pre-Existing Affiliates as of the closing of such transaction, which Know-How is developed after the closing of such transaction during any period that such |
64
individual remains an employee of the Acquired Party or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquirer or any Acquirer Affiliate), and the Patent Rights (if any) claiming or disclosing such Know-How shall be subject to the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement to the Non-Acquired Party. |
(c) | Intellikine Change of Control. |
(i) | In the event that Intellikine or an Intellikine Holding Company enters into an agreement with any Acquirer pursuant to which an Intellikine Change of Control would occur upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by such agreement and, as of the date of such agreement, such Acquirer or any Acquirer Affiliate has an active clinical development or commercialization program directed to a Target(s), then Intellikine will notify Infinity of such agreement and, during the [**] day period following such notice, upon written notice by Infinity to Intellikine during such [**] day period, Infinity may elect to have the following occur effective only upon the occurrence of such Intellikine Change of Control: (A) Intellikine’s right to conduct a clinical trial under Section 5.8 shall terminate; (B) the right to Detail under Section 7.2(d) and any Co-Detailing Agreement shall terminate; and (C) the JRC and JDC, and subcommittees thereof, shall be disbanded (provided that decision making with regard to matters set forth in Section 4.7 shall continue as set forth therein);provided that if such agreement is subsequently terminated without the occurrence of the related Intellikine Change of Control, then such elections made by Infinity shall have no effect. |
(ii) | For the avoidance of doubt, Infinity shall be entitled to make the elections provided for in Section 18.1(c)(i) upon each occurrence of an Intellikine Change of Control. |
18.2 | Performance by Affiliates. Any obligation of Infinity under or pursuant to this Agreement may be satisfied, met or fulfilled, in whole or in part, at Infinity’s sole and exclusive option, either by Infinity directly or by any Affiliate of Infinity that Infinity causes to satisfy, meet or fulfill such obligation, in whole or in part. Any obligation of Intellikine under or pursuant to this Agreement may be satisfied, met or fulfilled, in whole or in part, at Intellikine’s sole and exclusive option, either by Intellikine directly or by any Affiliate of Intellikine that Intellikine causes to satisfy, meet or fulfill such obligation, in whole or in part. With respect to any particular action, the use of the words “Infinity will” or “Infinity shall” also means “Infinity will cause” the particular action to be performed, and the use of the words “Intellikine will” or “Intellikine shall” also means “Intellikine will cause” the particular action to be performed. Each of the Parties guarantees the performance of all actions, agreements and obligations to be performed by any Affiliates of such Party under the terms and conditions of this Agreement. |
18.3 | Severability. Should one or more of the provisions of this Agreement become void or unenforceable as a matter of law, then this Agreement shall be construed as if such provision were not contained herein and the remainder of this Agreement shall be in full |
65
force and effect, and the Parties will use their best efforts to substitute for the invalid or unenforceable provision a valid and enforceable provision which conforms as nearly as possible with the original intent of the Parties. |
18.4 | Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York, USA, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provision thereof. |
18.5 | Dispute Resolution. |
(a) | The Parties shall negotiate in good faith and use reasonable efforts to settle any dispute, controversy or claim arising from or related to this Agreement or the breach thereof. If the Parties cannot resolve the dispute, controversy or claim (other than any such matter to be resolved by the JRC, JDC, JCC or Patent Committee, which shall not be subject to this Section 18.5 but shall be resolved solely pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article 4 (except with respect to any disputes not resolved as a result of Sections 4.7(a) through 4.7(h)) within thirty (30) days of a written request by either Party to the other Party, the Parties agree to hold a meeting, attended by the Senior Officers (or their designee with executive authority), as appropriate in light of the subject matter of the dispute, to attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the dispute prior to pursuing other available remedies. If, within thirty (30) days after such written request, the Parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the dispute, and a Party wishes to pursue the matter, each such dispute, controversy or claim that is not an Excluded Claim shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Large Complex Disputes of AAA as then in effect, and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof;provided,however, that a Party may pursue any matter described under Section 18.6 as described therein. The decision rendered in any such arbitration will be final and not appealable. If either Party intends to commence binding arbitration of such dispute, controversy or claim, such Party will provide written notice to the other Party informing the other Party of such intention and the issues to be resolved. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice, the other Party may by written notice to the Party initiating binding arbitration, add additional issues which meet the criteria in the second (2nd) sentence of this Section 18.5(a) (and are not Excluded Claims), to be resolved. |
(b) | The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) persons experienced in the pharmaceutical business, none of whom shall be a current or former employee or director, or a then-current stockholder, of either Party, their respective Affiliates or any other Infinity Related Party. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the original notice of binding arbitration (the “Notice Date”), each Party shall select one person to act as arbitrator and the two Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within ten (10) Business Days of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York, and all proceedings and communications shall be in English. |
66
(c) | It is the intention of the Parties that discovery, although permitted as described herein, will be limited except in exceptional circumstances. The arbitrators will permit such limited discovery necessary for an understanding of any legitimate issue raised in the arbitration, including the production of documents. No later than thirty (30) days after selection of the third arbitrator, the Parties and their representatives shall hold a preliminary meeting with the arbitrators, to mutually agree upon and thereafter follow procedures seeking to assure that the arbitration will be concluded within six (6) months from such meeting. Failing any such mutual agreement, the arbitrators will design and the Parties shall follow procedures to such effect. |
(d) | The arbitrators will, in rendering their decision, apply the substantive law of the State of New York, without giving effect to its principles of conflicts of law, and without giving effect to any rules or laws relating to arbitration. |
(e) | Either Party may apply to the arbitrators for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or provisional relief necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the arbitration award. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or any other non-compensatory damages, except as may be permitted by Section 17.4. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees and an equal share of the arbitrators’ and any administrative fees of arbitration. |
(f) | Except to the extent necessary to confirm or enforce an award or as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. In no event shall an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable New York statute of limitations. |
(g) | As used in this Section, the term “Excluded Claim” shall mean a dispute, controversy or claim that concerns the validity, enforceability or infringement of a patent, trademark or copyright. |
18.6 | Injunctive Relief. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, due to the unique and valuable nature of the other Party’s Confidential Information, there would be no adequate remedy at law for any breach by such Party of Section 11.1(c), the proviso in Section 16.4(g), Article 12 or Article 13, that any such breach may result in irreparable harm to the other Party for which monetary damages would be inadequate to compensate such party and that the other Party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights available under applicable law, to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction injunctive relief |
67
to restrain any breach or threatened breach of, or otherwise to specifically enforce, any covenant or obligation of such Party under such provisions, without the necessity of posting any bond or security. |
18.7 | Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be responsible to the other for any failure or delay in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement or for other nonperformance hereunder (excluding, in each case, the obligation to make payments when due) if such delay or nonperformance is caused by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident, war, act of terrorism, act of God or of the government of any country or of any local government, or by cause unavoidable or beyond the reasonable control of such Party. In such event, the Party affected will use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance of its obligations. |
18.8 | Waivers and Amendments. The failure of any Party to assert a right hereunder or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse a similar subsequent failure to perform any such term or condition by the other Party. No waiver shall be effective unless it has been given in writing and signed by the Party giving such waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified other than by a written document signed by authorized representatives of each Party. |
18.9 | Relationship of the Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a partnership, joint venture, or legal entity of any type between Intellikine and Infinity, or to constitute one as the agent of the other. Each Party shall act solely as an independent contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to give any Party the power or authority to act for, bind, or commit the other. |
18.10 | Notices. All notices, consents, waivers, and other communications under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when (a) delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) sent by fax (with written confirmation of receipt),provided that a copy is sent by an internationally recognized overnight delivery service (receipt requested), or (c) when received by the addressee, if sent by an internationally recognized overnight delivery service (receipt requested), in each case to the appropriate addresses and fax numbers set forth below (or to such other addresses and fax numbers as a Party may designate by notice): |

Profit-or-Loss
This Exhibit sets forth the proposed terms of sharing of Development Costs and Profit-or-Loss by the Parties as of the Effective Date. The Parties agree to further discuss and in good faith refine the definitions and calculations set forth in this Exhibit as appropriate in light of further information about Shared Products. For clarity, if Infinity sublicenses any rights with respect to a Shared Product, the relevant Infinity Related Party will be solely responsible for paying to Infinity any consideration with respect to such sublicense and such consideration shall in no event be included in Development Costs or Shared Commercial Expenses.
1.1 | Definitions. |
“Profit-or-Loss” means, with respect to a Shared Product and with respect to a Calendar Quarter:
(a) the Net Sales of such Shared Product sold or otherwise disposed of by Infinity and Infinity Related Parties during such Calendar Quarter in the United States, minus
(b) Shared Commercial Expenses for such Shared Product for the United States during such Calendar Quarter;
in each case, (y) to the extent such deductions have not already or otherwise been deducted, and (z) determined from the books and records of Infinity, the Infinity Related Party, Intellikine or its Affiliate in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of clarity, it is understood that (i) Shared Commercial Expenses shall not include any costs which have been included in Development Costs, (ii) there shall be no double-counting of expenses within the definition of Profit-or-Loss and (iii) the Profit-or-Loss shall be calculated and payable in accordance with Section 1.4 of thisExhibit 5 even if there are no Net Sales and prior to the first Commercial Sale. For clarity, it is the intent of the Parties that costs and headcount for any commercial activities with respect to a Shared Product that have or may have benefit in the United States and outside the United States shall be appropriately allocated by agreement of the JCC between costs allocable to the United States, which shall be included in Shared Commercial Expenses, and costs not allocable to the United States, which shall not be included in Shared Commercial Expenses.
“Development Costs” means, with respect to a Shared Product in the United States, the following costs incurred by a Party on or after the first day of the month in which the Oncology Product Option with respect to such Shared Product is exercised in accordance with Section 7.1(c) of the Agreement, which costs are incurred directly in connection with the development of such Shared Product in the Field in the United States in accordance with the Agreement and the Development Plan: (a) all Out-of-Pocket Expenses of either Party, its Affiliates or Infinity Related Parties payable to Third Parties (excluding manufacturing costs but including any filing or registration fees paid to a Regulatory Authority or other governmental authority in the United States), which shall be without markup, (b) COGS for clinical supply of such Shared Product for development activities for the United States, which shall be without markup, and (c) all direct and reasonable internal costs incurred by either Party, its Affiliates or Infinity Related Parties (determined using the applicable FTE rate in the definition of FTE Costs);provided, that for any development activities with respect to a Shared Product that are used or may be used in order to obtain
78
Marketing Authorization both in the United States and outside the United States, costs for such development activities shall be appropriately allocated by agreement of the JCC between costs allocable to the United States, which shall be included in Development Costs, and costs not allocable to the United States, which shall not be included in Development Costs. For clarification, Development Costs shall not include any costs incurred with respect to (A) any country-specific studies required by a Regulatory Authority solely in order to obtain Marketing Authorization in a country other than the United States, (B) any study that cannot reasonably be used to obtain Marketing Authorization in the United States, or (C) registration fees specifically required by or for Marketing Authorization in any country other than the United States.
“COGS” means, with respect to a Shared Product, the aggregate of internal and external costs of Infinity and Infinity Related Parties to manufacture such Shared Product for the United States (including any drug delivery device sold, or, as applicable, reasonably intended to be sold, for a single price with such Oncology Product), calculated as follows: (a) to the extent that Infinity or Infinity Related Parties performs all or any part of the manufacturing of such Shared Product for the United States, the direct material costs and direct labor costs for, plus manufacturing overhead reasonably allocable to, such manufacturing of such Shared Product (which may include facilities’ start-up costs, the costs of audits, all directly incurred manufacturing variances, the costs of failed batches of such Shared Product, manufacturing administrative and facilities costs (including depreciation)), all calculated in accordance with GAAP; and (b) to the extent that manufacturing of such Shared Product for the United States is performed by a Third Party, the Out-of-Pocket Expenses of Infinity or Infinity Related Parties for such manufacturing activities (including, to the extent included in the fees charged by such Third Party, costs for failed batches of such Shared Product) for the United States from such Third Party, and the reasonably allocated direct labor costs incurred by Infinity or any Infinity Related Parties in managing and overseeing the Third Party relationship, determined in accordance with GAAP. COGS shall also include royalties, license or other fees paid by Infinity or Infinity Related Parties to Third Parties to license Patent Rights or other intellectual property rights specifically for the manufacture of such Shared Product for the United States (to the extent not already included in the Out-of-Pocket Expenses under clause (b) above);provided, that any such amounts that are included in COGS will not be included in any other category of Shared Commercial Expenses so as not to double count such amounts. This definition shall also apply to Reverted Products, for purposes of Section 15.2(f) of the Agreement, as if references herein to Shared Product were references to Reverted Products.
“Shared Commercial Expenses” means, with respect to a Shared Product and with respect to a Calendar Quarter, the sum of the following items incurred by the Parties, their Affiliates or Infinity Related Parties, in each case to the extent directly attributable to commercialization of such Shared Product in the Field in the United States in such Calendar Quarter in accordance with the Commercial Plan:

1.2Sharing of Development Costs.
(a) The development of each Shared Product shall be governed by a Development Plan, including a rolling three (3) year budget of Development Costs, approved by the JDC. The initial Development Plan shall be delivered by Infinity to Intellikine pursuant to Section 7.1(b) of the Agreement. With regard to the rolling three-year budget included in the Development Plan for any Shared Product, a budget described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) shall be an“Approved Development Budget”: (i) the budget for each of the three years included in the initial Development Plan delivered by Infinity to Intellikine
83
pursuant to Section 7.1(b) of the Agreement, (ii) for each year after such first three years, the first budget for such year included in the Development Plan provided that such budget does not exceed [**] percent ([**]%) of the then-current Approved Development Budget for the immediately preceding year and, if the budget exceeds [**] percent ([**]%) of the then-current Approved Development Budget for the immediately preceding year, such budget shall only be an Approved Development Budget to the extent of [**] percent ([**]%) of the then-current Approved Development Budget for the immediately preceding year unless agreed to in writing by Intellikine, and (iii) any revised budget for a given year included in the Development Plan that provides for Development Costs that exceed the Development Costs in the then-current Approved Development Budget for such year, which revised budget is agreed to in writing by Intellikine. With regard to the rolling three-year budget included in the Development Plan for any Shared Product, a budget described in clause (A) or (B) shall be a“Revised Development Budget”: (A) for a given year after the first three years included in the initial Development Plan delivered by Infinity to Intellikine pursuant to Section 7.1(b) of the Agreement, if the budget exceeds [**] percent ([**]%) of the then-current Approved Development Budget for the immediately preceding year and such budget has not been agreed to in writing by Intellikine, such budget shall be a Revised Development Budget to the extent such budget exceeds [**] percent ([**]%) of the then-current Approved Development Budget for the immediately preceding year, and (B) any revised budget for a given year included in the Development Plan that provides for Development Costs that exceed the Development Costs in the then-current Approved Development Budget for such year, which revised budget is not agreed to in writing by Intellikine. For example, if the Development Plan includes a rolling three-year budget for 2013, 2014 and 2015, such budget will be the Approved Development Budget for such years. When the Development Plan is updated to include the rolling three-year budget for 2014, 2015 and 2016, (x) if the revised budget for 2014 does not exceed the Approved Development Budget for 2014, then such revised budget shall be deemed the Approved Development Budget for 2014, (y) if the revised budget for 2015 exceeds the Approved Development Budget for 2015, then such revised budget shall be the Revised Development Budget for 2015, unless Intellikine agrees in writing to such budget, in which case it shall be deemed the Approved Development Budget for 2015, and (z) if the budget for 2016 does not exceed [**] percent ([**]%) of the then-current Approved Development Budget for the immediately preceding year or is otherwise agreed to in writing by Intellikine, the budget for 2016 shall be the Approved Development Budget for 2016.
(b) During the Share Period for a Shared Product, subject to Section 1.2(e) below (i) the Parties shall share the Development Costs for such Shared Product in the United States according to the Share Percentage for all Development Costs within the then-current Approved Development Budget for the Calendar Quarter or a variance of up to not more than [**] percent ([**]%), and (ii) Infinity shall bear all Development Costs that exceed the then-current Approved Development Budget for such Calendar Quarter by more than [**] percent ([**]%) (including all Development Costs in the Revised Development Budget for such Calendar Quarter that exceed [**] percent ([**]%) of the Development Costs in the then-current Approved Development Budget for such Calendar Quarter);provided, that each Party shall bear such excess costs to the extent its actions that were inconsistent with the Development Plan caused the Development Costs to exceed the budgeted amount in the then-current Approved Development Budget.
84
(c) Development Costs shall initially be borne by the Party incurring the expense, subject to reimbursement as provided herein. Each Party shall calculate and maintain records of Development Costs incurred by it in accordance with procedures to be established by the JDC. Each Party shall report to the other Party on their Development Costs each Calendar Quarter, with such reports to be submitted within sixty (60) days after the end of each of the first three Calendar Quarters and ninety (90) days after the end of the calendar year. The Parties shall seek to resolve any questions related to such accounting statements within ninety (90) days following receipt.
(d) The Party that incurs more than its Share Percentage of the total actual Development Costs for the applicable Shared Product shall be paid by the other Party an amount of cash sufficient to reconcile to its Share Percentage of actual Development Costs in each Calendar Quarter,provided that total actual Development Costs for the year to date have not exceeded the Development Costs within the then-current Approved Development Budget for such year by more than [**] percent ([**]%) for the year to date. If actual Development Costs exceeded Development Costs within the then-current Approved Development Budget for such year by more than [**] percent ([**]%) for the year to date (including all Development Costs in the Revised Development Budget that exceed [**] percent ([**]%) of the Development Costs in the then-current Approved Development Budget for such year), the reimbursing Party shall pay the other Party an amount of cash sufficient to cause the reimbursing Party to have borne its Share Percentage of [**] percent ([**]%) of the Development Costs within the then-current Approved Development Budget for such year, and Infinity shall bear all Development Costs that exceed [**] percent ([**]%) of the Development Costs within the then-current Approved Development Budget for such year;provided, that each Party shall bear such excess costs to the extent its actions that were inconsistent with the Development Plan caused the Development Costs to exceed the budgeted amount in the then-current Approved Development Budget. Reconciling payments under this Section 1.2(d) shall be made within thirty (30) days of receipt of the other Party’s quarterly report.
(e) The actual accumulated amount of Development Costs that exceeded the then-current Approved Development Budget for any year by more than [**] percent ([**]%) and are borne solely by Infinity pursuant to this Section 1.2 (excluding any such excess costs to the extent the actions of Infinity or any Infinity Related Party that were inconsistent with the Development Plan caused the Development Costs to exceed the budgeted amount in the then-current Approved Development Budget), plus simple interest on such excess amount from the time incurred at the rate of [**] percent ([**]%) per annum, shall be reimbursed from any positive Profit-or-Loss amount determined under Section 1.4(f) (i.e., only if there is net Profit) before making any payment to the Parties;provided that in no event shall any such amount be reimbursed in any Calendar Quarter that would result in a reduction of the payment otherwise due to Intellikine under Section 1.4(f) for such Calendar Quarter by more than fifty percent (50%), and, for the sake of clarity, any amount not reimbursed within a particular Calendar Quarter due to such proviso may be carried over to future periods until fully reimbursed.
85
1.3Sales and Distribution. Regardless of whether Intellikine exercises its Oncology Product Option, Infinity or an Infinity Related Party shall be responsible for selling and booking all sales and for warehousing and distribution of Shared Products in the United States. If Intellikine receives any orders for Shared Products in the United States, it shall promptly refer such orders to Infinity. In addition, without intending to limit in any way Infinity’s overall rights and responsibility for commercialization of Shared Products in the United States, the Parties agree that Infinity or an Infinity Related Party shall be solely responsible for the following with respect to Shared Products in the United States, at Infinity’s cost: (a) handling all returns, it being understood that if a Shared Product is returned to Intellikine, it shall promptly be shipped to the facility designated by Infinity; (b) handling all aspects of order processing, invoicing and collection, distribution, inventory and receivables; (c) making recall or market withdrawal decisions, and conducting such recall or market withdrawal; (d) handling all medical questions or inquiries; and (e) setting the price and discounts;provided, that, in each case of (a)-(e), in the event Intellikine has exercised its Oncology Product Option, Infinity’s and Infinity Related Parties’ costs in performing such activities with respect to the relevant Shared Product in the United States shall be included as Selling and Promotion Expenses.
1.4Profit-or-Loss. The following provisions shall apply with respect to each Shared Product (if any):
(a)Commercial Plan. The commercialization of each Shared Product shall be governed by a Commercial Plan, including a rolling three (3) year budget of Shared Commercial Expenses, approved by the JCC. The initial Commercial Plan shall be delivered by Infinity to Intellikine pursuant to Section 7.1(b) of the Agreement. With regard to the rolling three-year budget included in the Commercial Plan for any Shared Product, a budget described in clause (i) or (ii) shall be an“Approved Commercial Budget”: (i) the budget for each year included in the Commercial Plan to the extent that total Shared Commercial Expenses under all such budgets (or, with respect to any completed years, actual Shared Commercial Expenses) do not exceed [**] US dollars (US$[**]) in the aggregate or (ii) any budget for a given year included in the Commercial Plan that would not be an Approved Commercial Budget under clause (i), but which budget is agreed to in writing by Intellikine. With regard to the rolling three-year budget included in the Commercial Plan for any Shared Product, a budget described below shall be a“Revised Commercial Budget”: any budget for a given year included in the Commercial Plan to the extent that such budget provides for Shared Commercial Expenses that exceed the Shared Commercial Expenses in the then-current Approved Commercial Budget for such year.
(b)Profit-or-Loss Share. During the Share Period for a Shared Product, each Party shall share in Profit-or-Loss for such Shared Product in the United States according to such Party’s Share Percentage, subject to Section 1.4(e) below.
(c)Profit-or-Loss Statement. The reporting and determination (subject to the provisions of thisExhibit 5) of Profit-or-Loss shall be governed by a joint profit and loss statement (the “Profit-or-Loss Statement”) to be prepared by Infinity and submitted to Intellikine in substantially the form attached hereto asExhibit 5-A. Such Profit-or-Loss Statement shall be prepared and delivered consistent with the provisions of this Section 1.4, and all other relevant terms and conditions of the Agreement and thisExhibit 5.
86
(d)Reporting on Sales. Infinity shall report to Intellikine and to the JCC sales of Shared Products in the United States in the following manner:
(i) Within fifteen (15) days of the end of each of the first three (3) Calendar Quarters of each calendar year, Infinity shall report Net Sales for each Shared Product accrued in the United States for the preceding Calendar Quarter; and
(ii) Within twenty-five (25) days of the end of the fourth Calendar Quarter of each calendar year, Infinity shall report Net Sales for each Shared Product accrued in the United States for the preceding calendar year.
(e)Shared Commercial Expenses.
(i) Within six (6) Business Days after the end of each Calendar Quarter during the Share Period for each Shared Product, each Party shall provide the other Party with a report of such Party’s Shared Commercial Expenses incurred (each, a “Shared Commercial Expense Report”) setting forth the following information relating to the preceding Calendar Quarter and comparisons of such information to the then-current Approved Commercial Budget for such Calendar Quarter: such Party’s Shared Commercial Expenses showing each specific type of cost included in the definition of Shared Commercial Expenses separately and listing the project relating to each such cost, if applicable.
(ii) Each such Shared Commercial Expense Report shall be delivered in a mutually-agreeable electronic format to the extent possible or in hard copy form. Each Shared Commercial Expense Report shall be treated as Confidential Information of the reporting Party and, subject to applicable laws, shall not be disclosed to Third Parties without such Party’s prior written approval or direction;provided,however, that either Party may disclose such information as permitted by Section 12.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent Infinity from using the data in any Shared Commercial Expense Reports in connection with its compliance with its price reporting obligations under applicable laws (provided,however, that each Party shall use Diligent Efforts to protect Confidential Information of the other Party).
(iii) The Profit-or-Loss Statement shall include Shared Commercial Expenses;provided that total actual Shared Commercial Expenses for the year to date have not exceeded the Shared Commercial Expenses within the then-current Approved Commercial Budget for such year by more than [**] percent ([**]%) for the year to date. If actual Shared Commercial Expenses exceeded Shared Commercial Expenses within the then-current Approved Commercial Budget for such year by more than [**] percent ([**]%) for the year to date (including all Shared Commercial Expenses in the Revised Commercial Budget that exceed the Shared Commercial Expenses in the then-current Approved Commercial Budget for such

INFINITY AND INTELLIKINE ENTER AGREEMENT TO DEVELOP
ORAL THERAPIES TARGETING PI3 KINASE DELTA, GAMMA
– Infinity Uses Scientific Expertise and Financial Strength to Enter New Therapeutic Area –
– Intellikine Retains Strategic Development and Commercial Rights in Oncology in Deal Valued Up to $488 Million –
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. and LA JOLLA, Calif. – July 8, 2010 – Infinity Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: INFI), an innovative drug discovery and development company, and Intellikine, Inc., a leader in the development of small molecule drugs targeting the PI3K/mTOR pathway, today announced an agreement under which Infinity obtained global development and commercialization rights to Intellikine’s portfolio of inhibitors of the delta and gamma isoforms of phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K). Among these inhibitors is INK1197, an orally available dual delta/gamma-specific inhibitor of PI3K for which clinical development in inflammatory diseases is expected to commence in 2011.
Under the terms of the agreement, Intellikine will receive $13.5 million in initial license payments, committed research funding over the first two years of the relationship to identify additional novel delta, gamma and dual delta/gamma-specific inhibitors of PI3K for future development, up to $25 million in success-based milestones for the development of two distinct product candidates, and up to $450 million in success-based milestones for the approval and commercialization of two distinct products. In addition, Intellikine will be entitled to receive royalties upon successful commercialization of products licensed to Infinity. For products directed primarily to oncology indications, Intellikine will have the option, at the end of Phase 2 clinical development and upon payment of an option fee, to convert its royalty interest in U.S. sales into the right to share in 50% of profits and losses on U.S. development and commercialization, and to participate in up to 30% of the detailing effort for these products in the United States.
The PI3Kdelta/gamma program licensed from Intellikine will be a part of Infinity’s existing strategic alliance with Mundipharma International Corporation Ltd. and will be governed by the same terms as Infinity’s internally-discovered programs. Such terms include Mundipharma’s funding of Infinity’s research and development expenses for the PI3K program through the later to occur of December 31, 2013 and the commencement of Phase 3 development, subject to aggregate funding caps across the partnered portfolio under a three-year rolling plan, and reimbursement of 50% of research and development expenses thereafter. In addition, Mundipharma will have commercialization rights outside of the United States to any successfully developed products, subject to the payment of royalties of up to 20% on net sales.
“This agreement is emblematic of Infinity’s strategy to use our scientific expertise and financial strength to expand our portfolio of high-quality development programs in areas where there is a significant unmet
97
medical need and for which Infinity is well positioned to reveal – and then realize – the potential of such programs. We expect to seek additional opportunities to broaden our portfolio of innovative product candidates in the future,” said Adelene Q. Perkins, president and chief executive officer of Infinity. “We are excited to develop INK1197 in inflammation and to work closely with the Intellikine team to identify additional differentiated PI3Kdelta/gamma inhibitors for both inflammation and oncology,” said Julian Adams, Ph.D., president of research and development at Infinity. “Targets such as PI3Kdelta and PI3Kgamma have broad applicability across inflammatory and oncology indications, creating many opportunities to make a meaningful impact for patients.”
“Intellikine has rapidly assembled a leading pipeline of drug candidates against the PI3K/mTOR pathway,” said Troy Wilson, Ph.D., J.D., president and chief executive officer of Intellikine. “We are excited to work with our colleagues at Infinity, who share our strong scientific culture and sense of urgency to advance this program forward. Additionally, this collaboration provides us with significant resources to advance our own TORC1/2 and PI3Kalpha drug candidates. The opportunity to co-develop and co-detail PI3Kdelta/gamma drug candidates in oncology with Infinity is a key component of our strategy to build an oncology business.”
By virtue of the expansion of Infinity’s portfolio to include the PI3Kdelta/gamma program, Infinity expects to exceed the $65 million cap for 2010 set forth in the research plan under the Mundipharma/Purdue Pharma alliance. As a result, Infinity now projects a 2010 cash burn of between $35 and $45 million and a year-end cash balance of between $85 and $95 million, not including amounts that may be drawn by Infinity under the $50 million line of credit available from Purdue. Infinity continues to expect that its current cash and investments, together with research and development funding from Mundipharma and Purdue and proceeds from the line of credit, are sufficient to fund the company’s operations into 2013 and enable the company to reach key development milestones and evaluate additional external opportunities to strategically enhance its pipeline.
About PI3K and INK1197
The phosphoinositide-3-kinases (PI3Ks) are a family of enzymes involved in cellular functions, including cell proliferation and survival, cell differentiation, intracellular trafficking and immunity. The delta and gamma isoforms of PI3K are strongly implicated in immune-mediated inflammatory and allergic disorders. Restricted primarily to cells of the immune system, these two isoforms regulate diverse cellular functions of the immune system. INK1197 is an orally-available, small molecule, dual-selective inhibitor of PI3Kdelta and PI3Kgamma. INK1197 has demonstrated activity in preclinical models of rheumatoid arthritis, allergy and inflammation. Infinity intends to develop INK1197 in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. Beyond INK1197, Intellikine will contribute its collection of novel PI3Kdelta-selective and PI3Kdelta/gamma dual-selective compounds, providing multiple opportunities for Infinity to develop differentiated therapies against inflammatory and autoimmune diseases as well as hematologic cancers.
