Further, any combination of Confidential Information shall not be considered in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party merely because individual elements of such Confidential Information are in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party unless the combination and its principles are in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party.

10.2. Permitted Disclosures.

10.2.1. Each Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is:

With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 12.4.1, the indemnifying Party shall have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, make any admissions that would adversely affect the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss; provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless such compromise or settlement involves (a) any admission of legal wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, (b) any payment by the Indemnified Party that is not indemnified under this Agreement, or (c) the imposition of any equitable relief against the Indemnified Party (in which case, (a) through (c), the Indemnified Party may withhold its consent to such settlement in its sole discretion). If the indemnifying Party does not assume and conduct the defense of a Third Party Claim as provided in Section 12.4.1, the Indemnified Party may defend against such Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 13.2.4 provided that the Indemnified Party shall not settle any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

12.4.4. Cooperation. Regardless of whether the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause each indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include access during normal business horns afforded to the indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnified Patties and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.

12.4.5. Expenses. Except as provided above, the costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any Third Party Claim shall be reimbursed on a Calendar Quarter basis by the indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund if the indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.

12.4.6. Subrogation. All rights an Indemnified Party may have against any Third Party who asserts a Third Party Claim that is paid by the indemnifying Party under this ARTICLE 12 shall be subrogated to the indemnifying Party.

12.5. Special, Indirect, and Other Losses. EXCEPT (A) FOR NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, (B) FOR A PARTY’S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER ARTICLE 9 OR ARTICLE 10, OR (C) TO THE EXTENT ANY SUCH DAMAGES ARE REQUIRED TO BE PAID TO A THIRD PARTY AS PART OF A THIRD PARTY CLAIM FOR WHICH A PARTY PROVIDES INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS ARTICLE 12 OR AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, NEITHER PARTY NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, HOWEVER CAUSED, IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE BREACH OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

Following the expiration of the Term (but not the termination of this Agreement), the grants in Section 7.1 shall survive and become fully-paid [***] royalty-free and perpetual. Licensor shall upon expiration of the Term (but not the termination of this Agreement) endeavor to continue any supply of Licensed Products to Licensee in accordance with its ongoing supply obligations under the Commercial Supply Agreement, all as to be further specified in the Commercial Supply Agreement.

(a) Subject to Section 13.2.1(b), either Party (the “Non- Breaching Party”) shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety immediately upon written notice if the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) has materially breached this Agreement and the Breaching Party has not cured such breach within [***] days (or [***] days for breach of payment obligations) after receiving written notice from the Non-Breaching Party identifying such material breach with particularity (a “Default Notice”).

(b) If the alleged Breaching Party disputes in good faith the existence or materiality of a breach specified in a Default Notice provided in accordance with Section 13.2.1(a), and such alleged Breaching Party provides the other Party notice of such dispute and submits such dispute for resolution in accordance with Section 15.5.2 within [***] after receipt of the Default Notice, the Non-Breaching Party shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under Section 13.2.1(a) unless and until (i) the arbitrator(s), in accordance with Section 15.5.2, has determined that the alleged Breaching Party has materially breached this Agreement and the Breaching Party fails to cure such breach within [***] days following such arbitrators’ decision, or (ii) if the alleged breach is in regards to a Party’s diligence obligations under this Agreement, the Breaching Party fails to implement the measures contemplated in the last sentence of this Section 13.2.1(b).

13.2.2. Termination for Bankruptcy, Insolvency or Similar Event. If either Party (a) becomes the subject, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding, and, in the event of an involuntary case under the bankruptcy code, such case is not dismissed within [***] days upon filing for such proceeding; (b) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (c) appoints or suffers appointment of a receiver or trustee over substantially all of its property; (d) files for or is subject to the institution of bankruptcy, liquidation or receivership proceedings; (e) admits in writing its inability to meet its obligations as they fall due in the general course; or (f) becomes subject to a warrant of attachment, execution, or distraint or similar process against substantially all of its property, then the other Party may terminate this Agreement in its entirety, effective immediately upon written notice to the other Party.

13.2.3. Additional Termination Right by Licensee. Licensee may terminate this Agreement in its entirety for any or no reason, upon [***] days’ prior written notice to Licensor.

MISCELLANEOUS

15.1. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party or be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement when such failure or delay is caused by or results from events beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing Party, including files, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, embargoes, shortages, epidemics, quarantines, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), terrorist acts, insurrections, riots, civil commotion, strikes, lockouts, or other labor disturbances (whether involving the workforce of the non-performing Party or of any other Person), acts of God or acts, omissions or delays in acting by any governmental authority (except to the extent such delay results from the breach by the nonperforming Party or any of its Affiliates of any term or condition of this Agreement). The nonperforming Party shall notify the other Party of such force majeure within [***] days after such occurrence by giving written notice to the other Party stating the nature of the event, its anticipated duration, and any action being taken to avoid or minimize its effect. Following this notification, the Parties shall enter into good faith discussions on how to limit the negative impact of any such force majeure to the extent possible. The suspension of performance shall be of no greater scope and no longer duration than is necessary and the non-performing Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remedy its inability to perform. Without limitation to the foregoing, if Licensee is the non-performing Party and the force majeure event specifically impacts Licensee (i.e., it does not also impact all or substantially all competitors of Licensee in the Territory), and if the suspension of performance continues for a consecutive period of [***] after the date of the occurrence, Licensor shall have the right to terminate this Agreement [***] upon written notice to Licensee, in its sole discretion, and [***]. In the event that Licensor terminates this Agreement in accordance with the aforementioned sentence, the Parties shall enter into discussions on any compensation to be paid by Licensor to Licensee for such termination taking into account the harm/costs to the Parties as a result of such termination and force majeure, to the extent agreed between the Parties and for which agreement the Parties shall make reasonable good faith efforts.

15.2. Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned or otherwise transferred by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that each of the Parties may, without such consent, but with notification, assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates or to a successor, whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or any other transaction, of all or substantially all of the portion of its business to which this Agreement relates. In case of an assignment by Licensee to an Affiliate, such Affiliate must agree in writing that in case such Affiliates ceases to be an Affiliate of Licensee, the Agreement, or in case of an assignment of rights or obligations, such assigned rights shall automatically be re-assigned and transfer back to Licensee, and that the parties to such assignment agreement will do all acts that are required to effectuate such re-assignment and transfer back to Licensee. Any attempted assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 15.2 shall be void and of no effect. All validly assigned and delegated rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by and against the successors and permitted assigns of Licensor or Licensee, as the case may be. The permitted assignee or transferee shall assume all obligations of its assignor or transferor under this Agreement.

15.3. Change of Control.

15.3.1. Change in Control of Licensee. If Licensee enters into an agreement that results or that, if the transaction contemplated thereby is completed would result, in a Change of Control of Licensee, Licensee shall provide Licensor with prompt written notice describing such Change of Control in reasonable detail. Licensee shall provide such notice prior to the execution of such agreement, or, if not permitted by Applicable Law or third party confidentiality obligations, as soon as practicable thereafter and in any event not later than [***] following the consummation of the transaction contemplated by such agreement.

15.3.2. Change in Control of Licensor. Patents and Information that are Controlled by an Acquiring Person prior to a Change of Control of Licensor or that become Controlled by an Acquiring Person after a Change of Control of Licensor (without use of any Licensed Technology existing prior to such Change of Control) shall not be included within the Licensed Patents or Licensed Know-How except to the extent (a) such Patents or Information cover technology used by Licensor or its Affiliates or then respective (sub)licensees in the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products and (b) such Patents or Information are necessary or reasonably useful for the Development or Commercialization of the Licensed Compound or the Licensed Products in the Field in the Territory.

15.4. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under any present or future law, and if the rights or obligations of either Party under this Agreement will not be materially and adversely affected thereby, (a) such provision shall be fully severable, (b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom, and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid, and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and reasonably acceptable to the Parties. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Party hereby waives any provision of law that would render any provision hereof illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in any respect.

15.5. Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Service.

15.5.1. Governing Law. This Agreement or the performance, enforcement, breach or termination hereof shall be interpreted, governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction; provided, however, that all questions concerning the construction or effect of Patent applications and Patents shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which the particular Patent application or Patent has been filed or granted, as the case may be.

15.13. Counterparts; Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Except where the context otherwise requires, wherever used, the singular shall include the plural, the plural the singular, the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders and the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense (and/or). Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, unless otherwise specified, such number refers to calendar days.

The term “including,” “include,” or “includes” as used herein shall mean including, without limiting the generality of any description preceding such term. Any reference to “demonstrable” costs and expenses means those costs and expenses can be evidenced in writing. Whenever this Agreement refers to a “jurisdiction”, (a) the PRC, (b) Hong Kong, (c) Macau, and (d) Taiwan shall each be deemed a separate jurisdiction and any part of (a), (b), (c) or (d) shall not be deemed a separate jurisdiction.

Each Party represents that it has been represented by legal counsel in connection with this Agreement and acknowledges that it has participated in the drafting hereof. In interpreting and applying the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Parties agree that no presumption will apply against the Party which drafted such terms and provisions.

15.16. Parent Guarantee.

Parent agrees that such obligations of Licensee and this Agreement may be extended, modified or renewed, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (without notice or further assent from Parent). This guaranty is an irrevocable guaranty of payment and performance (and not just of collection) by Licensee and shall continue in effect until [***], notwithstanding any extension, modification or renewal of the terms of this Agreement. This guarantee is primary and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that Licensor first attempt to collect or enforce any guaranteed obligation from or against Licensee. The obligations of Parent hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall not be affected by or contingent upon (i) the liquidation or dissolution of, or the merger or consolidation of Licensee with or into any corporation, any sale or transfer by Licensee or all or any part of its or their property or assets, or any assignment of this Agreement, (ii) the bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceedings involving or affecting Licensee, or (iii) any modification, alteration, amendment or addition of or to the Agreement; provided that, if Licensee is no longer an Affiliate of Parent, Parent has approved any such alteration, amendment or addition which would materially impact Parent’s obligations hereunder. Parent’s obligations under this Section 15.16 shall terminate upon [***]. Parent acknowledges that each of the waivers set forth in this Section 15.16 is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences and under the circumstances the waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy.
