Such determination shall be binding upon the parties.  Interest on the Advance shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed.  In the event that SERVIER is unable to determine EURIBOR, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to determine a substitute rate.  At the end of each six month period, the unpaid interest will be added to the outstanding principal amount for the calculation of interest for the next six month period.
  (b)  Default Interest. Notwithstanding the above Section 3.1.(a) from and during the continuance of any failure by XOMA Ireland to pay any principal and accrued interest due and payable to Servier, the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest of the Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to five hundred (500) basis points above the EURIBOR on the EURIBOR Determination Date. This remedy is in addition to the other remedies set forth in Article 8 below.
  (c)  Interest Payments.  From the Disbursement Date to the Repayment Commencement Date,  accrued interest shall not be due or payable; provided, however that interest will accrue and be added to the outstanding principal as provided in Section 3.1(a).  On the Repayment Commencement Date, all accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, such date, shall be  paid by XOMA Ireland to Servier and thereafter, accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable .at the end of each six month period.
  (d)  Acceleration of Repayment Commencement Date.  In the event of any termination of the Collaboration Agreement in its entirety by Servier pursuant to Section 11.2 or Section 11.3 of the Collaboration Agreement prior to the date which is [*] months prior to the Repayment Commencement Date, the Repayment Commencement Date shall be accelerated, and the Repayment Commencement Date shall be defined thereafter as the date that is [*] months following the effective date of such termination, at which time interest payments shall commence as provided in Section 3.1(c), at the interest rate provided in Section 3.1(a).
  
  4.
  
 3.2  Principal Repayment.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, all outstanding principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, shall be due and payable by XOMA Ireland on the Maturity Date.
  3.3  Right of Offset.  From and after the Repayment Commencement Date, Servier may, at its election upon written notice to XOMA Ireland, withhold from XOMA Ireland and apply to the principal amount of the Advance an amount up to [*]% of any milestone payment owing from Servier to XOMA Ireland under the Collaboration Agreement and any royalty payment owing from Servier to XOMA Ireland under the Collaboration Agreement.  Upon such application, Servier shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to pay the withheld amount to XOMA Ireland in respect of the applicable milestone payment, and XOMA Ireland shall be deemed to have discharged the principal amount of the Advance in the amount so applied. Servier shall have the right to set-off or apply any amounts owed by Servier or any of its Affiliates to XOMA Ireland or any of its Affiliates against the Indebtedness hereunder in case of Event of Default. Except as expressly permitted under this Section 3.3, Servier shall not have any right to set-off or apply any amounts owed by Servier or any of its Affiliates to XOMA Ireland or any of its Affiliates against the Indebtedness hereunder.
  3.4  Mandatory Prepayment.  From and after the Repayment Commencement Date, upon receipt by XOMA Ireland or any of its Affiliates of any upfront, milestone or royalty payment in cash from any Third Party Partner within the Retained Territory, XOMA Ireland shall (a) promptly provide Servier written notice thereof, and (b) within [*] days of the actual receipt of such payment, prepay the Indebtedness in an amount equal to [*] percent ([*]%) of such payment.
  3.5  Payments on Non-Business Day.  In the event that any payment of any principal, interest, fees or any other amounts payable by XOMA Ireland under or pursuant to this Loan Agreement, or under any other Loan Document shall become due on any day which is not a Business Day, such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, provided that no interest shall accrue for and during any such extension.
  3.6  Payment Procedures.  All sums payable by XOMA Ireland to Servier under or pursuant to this Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Document, whether principal, interest, or otherwise, shall be paid, when due, directly to Servier bank account designated in writing by Servier to XOMA Ireland, in immediately available funds denominated in Euros, and without setoff, deduction or counterclaim.
  3.7  Optional Prepayments. XOMA Ireland may prepay the outstanding Indebtedness, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time and from time to time.
  3.8  Application of Prepayments or Repayments.  Any partial prepayment or repayment shall be applied first to any Indebtedness consisting of amounts other than principal and interest, second to accrued but accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid and finally to outstanding principal.
  
  5.
  
 3.9  Collection Costs.  All amounts payable by XOMA Ireland under any of the Loan Documents shall be payable with all collection costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.
  3.10  Tax Cooperation.
  (a)  The Parties agree to cooperate with one another and use reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of payments of interest and other Indebtedness made by XOMA Ireland to Servier under this Loan Agreement.  XOMA Ireland agrees that under current French/Irish Laws, payments made by XOMA Ireland  to Servier under this Loan Agreement are not subject to withholding tax in Ireland so long as Servier files appropriate documentation with the Republic of Ireland evidencing its eligibility for an exemption from withholding tax.  XOMA Ireland shall provide to Servier, who shall complete any required portions of, any tax forms that may be reasonably necessary in order for Servier not to withhold tax or to withhold tax at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty, including Forms 5000-EN and 5003-EN.To the extent XOMA Ireland is required to deduct and withhold taxes on any payment to Servier, XOMA Ireland shall pay the amounts of such taxes to the proper Governmental Authority in a timely manner and promptly transmit to Servier an official tax certificate or other evidence of such withholding sufficient to enable Servier to claim such payment of taxes. Servier shall provide XOMA Ireland any tax forms that may be reasonably necessary in order for XOMA Ireland not to withhold tax or to withhold tax at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty.  Each Party shall provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by applicable Laws, of withholding taxes, value added taxes, or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Loan Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such withholding tax or value added tax.
  (b)  If XOMA Ireland is required to make a payment to Servier that is subject to a deduction or withholding of tax, then (i) if such withholding or deduction obligation arises as a result of any action by XOMA Ireland or any failure on the part of XOMA Ireland to comply with applicable Laws or filing or record retention requirements, that has the effect of modifying the tax treatment of the Parties hereto (a “XOMA Withholding Tax Action”), then the sum payable by XOMA Ireland (in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made) shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that Servier receives a sum equal to the sum that it would have received had no such Servier Withholding Tax Action occurred, and (ii) otherwise, the sum payable by XOMA Ireland (in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made) shall be made to Servier after deduction of the amount required to be so deducted or withheld, which deducted or withheld amount shall be remitted to the proper Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws.
