expense to document and/or perfect the assignment of such inventions and intellectual property. 
  
         10.1.2. Ownership of XcellerateTM Technology and Jointly-Invented Inventions Related Thereto. All right, title
and interest to the XcellerateTM Technology shall
(subject to any licenses explicitly granted hereunder) at all times remain with and be vested in XCYTE. Any invention or other intellectual property made, and data derived, jointly by FRESENIUS or its respective employees, consultants or agents and
XCYTE or its respective employees, consultants or agents arising out of the Research Program or out of any technology transfer performed by XCYTE in accordance with Sections 3.2 or 3.3 that relates to the XcellerateTM Technology shall be owned by XCYTE. FRESENIUS shall promptly notify XCYTE of
any such invention or other intellectual property, and cooperate with XCYTE at XCYTE’s request and expense, in the preparation, filing, prosecution, and defense of patent applications and patents relating thereto. Subject to the terms of this
Article 10, at XCYTE’s request, FRESENIUS shall assign, and hereby assigns, to XCYTE, all right, title and interest to joint FRESENIUS and XCYTE inventions that relate to the XcellerateTM Technology, and shall in a reasonably timely manner execute those documents, as
requested by XCYTE, necessary to document and/or perfect the assignment of such inventions and intellectual property. If XCYTE decides to request assignment from FRESENIUS pursuant to this Section 10.1.2, XCYTE shall reimburse FRESENIUS for all
payments that may be due to FRESENIUS employees who are inventors based on the commercial use of such jointly-made invention pursuant to FRESENIUS’ obligations under the German Act governing employee inventions (Arbeitnehmererfindungsgesetz),
provided that XCYTE shall be entitled to a good faith estimate of such payments prior to its decision. 
  
         10.1.3. Grant-Back License to XCYTE. FRESENIUS hereby grants to XCYTE a perpetual,
irrevocable, non-exclusive, fully paid worldwide license, with the right to sublicense, inventions or other intellectual property invented solely by FRESENIUS or its respective employees, consultants or agents that directly relate to the
XcellerateTM Technology and which have been
conceived in the course of the collaboration under this Agreement to develop, make, have made, use, import, sell, and offer for sale products. Such license shall neither include the Field for subject matter nor the Territory for geographic purposes.
FRESENIUS shall in a reasonably timely manner execute any documents, as requested by XCYTE, necessary to further document such license. 
  
  

 -23- 








 10.2. Patent Prosecution and Maintenance. 
  
         10.2.1. XCYTE shall be
responsible for and shall control the preparation, filing, prosecution, grant and maintenance of all XCYTE Patents, including patents covering joint inventions pursuant to Section 10.1.2. XCYTE shall prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such XCYTE
Patents in good faith consistent with its customary patent policy and its reasonable business judgment, and shall consider in good faith the interests of FRESENIUS in so doing. 
  
         10.2.2. XCYTE agrees to furnish to FRESENIUS copies of all relevant
documentation and any proposed filing in the Field in the Territory so that FRESENIUS may be currently and promptly informed of the continuing prosecution. XCYTE shall in good faith periodically consult with FRESENIUS with regards to FRESENIUS’
patent strategy in the Field and in the Territory. FRESENIUS shall bear its own costs relating to its monitoring of XCYTE’s patent activities. XCYTE will not withdraw, terminate, invalidate or otherwise modify all or any part of the XCYTE
Patents licensed to FRESENIUS under this Agreement or any claims thereof (including, without limitation, cause the XCYTE Patents or any part thereof to be reissued, reexamined, opposed or part of an interference, except as required by law), without
the prior written consent of FRESENIUS. [*] of all costs that XCYTE incurs after August 1, 2003 in filing, prosecuting and maintaining XCYTE Patents in the Territory shall be borne by XCYTE and shall be promptly reimbursed by FRESENIUS;
provided, however, that FRESENIUS shall have the right to determine which countries in the Territory it will reimburse the costs of filing, prosecuting and maintaining the XCYTE Patents. To the extent FRESENIUS does not reimburse the costs of
filing, prosecuting and maintaining XCYTE Patents in any country in the Territory within [*] days after FRESENIUS’ receipt of a written notice from XCYTE of FRESENIUS’ failure to timely pay such costs, then FRESENIUS’ right and
license to such XCYTE Patent under this Agreement shall terminate in such country. Should XCYTE elect to abandon or otherwise forfeit a pending patent application or granted patent right, each with regard to the Field and the Territory, it will (a)
provide FRESENIUS with written notice as soon as reasonably possible after making such election but in any event no later than [*] days before FRESENIUS would be faced with a possible loss of rights, (b) give FRESENIUS the right, at
FRESENIUS’ discretion and sole expense, to prepare and file the priority application(s) (but only to the extent that such are related to Product), and (c) offer reasonable assistance in connection with such preparation and filing at no cost to
FRESENIUS except for reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by XCYTE in rendering such assistance. FRESENIUS, at its discretion and cost, will prosecute such application(s) and maintain any patents derived therefrom; provided,
however, that any such patents application or patents prosecuted or maintained by FRESENIUS will in no way be included, or be deemed to be included, in the XCYTE Patents. 
  
         10.2.3. All right, title and interest to inventions made in course of the
Research Program solely by FRESENIUS, FRESENIUS’ Affiliates, and/or Sublicensees (the “FRESENIUS Patents”) shall (subject to any licenses explicitly granted hereunder) at all times remain with and be vested in FRESENIUS.
FRESENIUS shall promptly disclose and provide a copy of all relevant documentation on FRESENIUS patents that relate to the XcellerateTM

 Technology to XCYTE. Subject to Section 10.2.1, FRESENIUS shall be responsible for and shall control the preparation,
filing, prosecution, grant and maintenance, of any patents and patent applications having as subject matter inventions owned solely by FRESENIUS. FRESENIUS shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its sole discretion and expense, prepare,
file, prosecute and maintain such patent rights in good faith consistent with its customary patent policy and its reasonable business judgment. Should FRESENIUS elect to abandon or otherwise forfeit a pending patent application or granted patent
right, each with regard to the Field and the Territory, it will (a) provide XCYTE with written notice as soon as reasonably possible after making such election but in any event no later than [*] days before XCYTE would be faced with a
possible loss of rights, (b) give XCYTE the right, at XCYTE’s discretion and sole expense, to prepare and file the priority application(s) (but only to the extent that such are related to Product), and (c) offer reasonable assistance in
connection with such preparation and filing at no cost to XCYTE except for reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by FRESENIUS in rendering such assistance. XCYTE, at its discretion and cost, will prosecute such application(s)
and maintain any patents derived therefrom. Furthermore, XCYTE shall have the right to assume responsibility for prosecuting and maintaining any FRESENIUS Patent that relates to the XcellerateTM Technology that FRESENIUS intends to abandon or otherwise cause or allow to be
forfeited. FRESENIUS shall give XCYTE notice thereof within a reasonable period prior to allowing such patents or certain claims therein to become abandoned or otherwise forfeited. 
  
         10.2.4. The Parties shall at all times fully cooperate in order to
reasonably implement the foregoing provisions. 
  
 10.3.
Enforcement of XCYTE Technology. 
  
         10.3.1. In the event that a Party becomes aware that any of the XCYTE Patents or XcellerateTM Technology in the Field in the Territory is infringed or misappropriated by a Third Party, such Party will promptly notify the other Party in
writing. The notice shall set forth the facts of such infringement or misappropriation in reasonable detail. FRESENIUS will have the first right, but not the obligation, to institute, prosecute and control any action or proceeding with respect to
any claim of infringement of any Third Party patents (as provided above) or any of the XCYTE Patents and XcellerateTM Technology, however, solely in the Field in the Territory, using counsel of its choice and at its cost. For purposes of clarity, XCYTE shall have the
first right, but not the obligation, to institute, prosecute and control any action or proceeding with respect to any claim of infringement of any Third Party patents or any of the XCYTE Patents and XcellerateTM Technology in all other cases, including infringement of the XCYTE Patents or
XcellerateTM Technology where the Field and/or the
Territory is part of the scope of infringement alleged. If FRESENIUS does not institute, prosecute and control any action or proceeding within [*] days after giving or receiving notice (as set forth above), then XCYTE, after notifying
FRESENIUS in writing, will be entitled but will have no obligation to institute, prosecute and control any action or proceeding with respect to any claim of infringement of any Third Party patents or any of the XCYTE Patents and XcellerateTM Technology, or otherwise abate the offending activity
using counsel of its choice and at its cost. The latter sentence shall apply

 -25- 








 mutatis mutandis where XCYTE has the first right to enforce the XcellerateTM Technology, but only to the extent that the claim of infringement directly and
materially affects FRESENIUS’ rights in the Field and/or the Territory pursuant to this Agreement. In any event, XCYTE and FRESENIUS will provide reasonable assistance to one another and will reasonably cooperate in any such litigation at the
other’s request without expense to the requesting Party. FRESENIUS shall consider in good faith all of XCYTE’s concerns with regards to actions of FRESENIUS in any enforcement activity that may risk the invalidity of the XCYTE Patents. No
settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of a suit may be entered into without the consent of the other Party if such settlement would subject the other Party to an injunction or if such settlement or judgment would
materially diminish or limit the rights and activities of the other Party (which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably). XCYTE and FRESENIUS will recover their respective actual out-of-pocket expenses, or equitable proportions thereof,
associated with any litigation or settlement thereof from any recovery made by any Party but only to the extent that such recovery is associated with a claim of infringement that directly and materially affects FRESENIUS’ rights in the Field
and/or the Territory pursuant to this Agreement. Any excess amount attributable to infringement of any patent or patent application included within XCYTE Patents that directly and materially affects FRESENIUS’ rights in the Field and/or the
Territory pursuant to this Agreement, will be shared between XCYTE and FRESENIUS and distributed proportionately between XCYTE and FRESENIUS (calculated on the basis of the Parties’ respective financial interest in the sales of Product that
were the subject of the litigation had such sales been made by FRESENIUS, or its Affiliates or Sublicensees as provided in this Agreement), provided in no event will XCYTE’s share of the excess amount exceed the royalties which would otherwise
be due to XCYTE for the sales of Product that were the subject of the litigation had such sales been made by FRESENIUS or its Affiliates or Sublicensees. 
  
 10.3.2. FRESENIUS shall have the right, at its sole expense, to determine the appropriate course of action to enforce the FRESENIUS Patents or otherwise
abate the infringement thereof, to take (or refrain from taking) appropriate action to enforce the FRESENIUS Patents, to control any litigation or other enforcement action and to enter into, or permit, the settlement of any such litigation or other
enforcement action with respect to the FRESENIUS Patents. All monies recovered upon the final judgment or settlement of any such suit to enforce any FRESENIUS Patents shall be retained by FRESENIUS. XCYTE and FRESENIUS shall fully cooperate with
each other in any action to enforce the FRESENIUS Patents. If FRESENIUS fails to take any action to enforce any FRESENIUS Patent that relates to the XcellerateTM Technology or control any litigation with respect to such FRESENIUS Patents within a period of [*] days after
reasonable notice of the infringement of such FRESENIUS Patents, then XCYTE shall have the right to bring and control any such action by counsel of its own choice, and in such case, all monies recovered upon the final judgment or settlement of any
such suit to enforce such FRESENIUS Patents shall be retained by XCYTE. In such a case, FRESENIUS shall cooperate fully with XCYTE, at XCYTE’s expense, in its efforts to enforce the FRESENIUS Patents, including being joined as a party to such
action if necessary.

 10.4. Prior Patent Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with
respect to any XCYTE Patents that are subject to the XCYTE In-Licenses, the rights and obligations of the Parties under Section 10.2 and 10.3 shall be subject to XCYTE’s licensors’ rights to participate in and control prosecution,
maintenance and enforcement of such XCYTE Patents in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable XCYTE In-License. 
  
 ARTICLE 11—INFRINGEMENT ACTIONS BY THIRD PARTIES. 
 Subject to the obligations of each Party pursuant to Article 16, if FRESENIUS, XCYTE or their respective Affiliates, or FRESENIUS’ Sublicensees, is sued by a Third Party for infringement of a Third Party’s patent because of the
use of the XcellerateTM Technology in the Field in
the Territory, the Party which has been sued shall promptly notify the other Party in no event later than [*] days of the institution of such suit. The notice shall set forth the facts of such infringement and provide evidence of such
infringement that is within the notifying Party’s control. If FRESENIUS or its Sublicensees are sued, FRESENIUS shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to control the defense of such suit at its own expense, and XCYTE shall have the right
to be represented by advisory counsel of its own selection, at its own expense, and shall cooperate fully in the defense of such suit and furnish to XCYTE all evidence and assistance in its control. If FRESENIUS does not elect within [*] days
after receipt of such notice to so control the defense of such suit, XCYTE may undertake such control at its own expense, and FRESENIUS shall then have the right to be represented by advisory counsel of its own selection and at its own expense, and
FRESENIUS shall cooperate fully in the defense of such suit and furnish to XCYTE all evidence and assistance in FRESENIUS’ control. The Party controlling the suit shall keep the other Party reasonably informed of the status of the suit under
this Article 12. In no event may the Party controlling the suit settle or otherwise consent to an adverse judgment in such suit that diminishes the rights or interests of the non-controlling Party without the express written consent of the
non-controlling Party. Any judgments, awards, settlements or damages payable with respect to legal proceedings covered by this Article 12 shall be paid by or to the Party which controls the litigation; provided, however, that if the
other Party has elected to be represented by advisory counsel, the other Party shall receive the actual reasonable cost of its legal fees for such advisory counsel. 
  
 ARTICLE 12—REGULATORY ASSISTANCE. 
 Each Party will provide the other Party access to all of its regulatory filings (and underlying data), relating to the products using the XcellerateTM Technology, to the extent such filings and data (including raw data and relevant
analyzed data generated) are necessary to support comparable filings by such other Party with regulatory authorities in other jurisdictions, and such Party is legally and contractually able to provide such access. Each Party may cross-reference the
regulatory filings of the other Party, to the extent allowed under applicable laws. FRESENIUS shall keep XCYTE reasonably informed on any filings and procedures with local Regulatory Agencies relating to Products. For the avoidance of doubt,
FRESENIUS shall not file, or take any action related to filing, for Regulatory Approval in any country outside the Territory without the prior written consent of XCYTE, and XCYTE shall not file for Regulatory Approval

 The Parties recognize that each may perform some or all of its obligations under this Agreement through Affiliates, provided, however, that
each Party shall remain responsible and be guarantor of the performance by its Affiliates and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. 
  
 ARTICLE 14 – TERM AND TERMINATION. 
 14.1. Term. 
  
 Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Article 14, the term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall remain in full force and effect until the
expiration of the Royalty Term. If FRESENIUS agrees to license in any New Technology, the term of FRESENIUS’ obligation shall extend until the later of (i) the last to expire Valid Patent Claim covering such New Technology, or (ii) [*]

 14.2. Termination by FRESENIUS. 
  
 If (i) FRESENIUS determines in good faith that it cannot develop a commercially viable Product or (ii) FRESENIUS is required, without a reasonable
alternative, by an applicable regulatory authority in the Territory to audit the manufacturing facility of the XcyteTM Dynabeads®, and such manufacturer does not allow FRESENIUS or the applicable regulatory authority to perform such audit during normal business hours, then so long as FRESENIUS had provided to such
manufacturer at least [*] days’ advance written notice of its request to audit the facility, then FRESENIUS shall have the right at any time to terminate this Agreement by providing not less than [*] days prior notice to XCYTE of
such termination. 
  
 14.3. Termination by XCYTE upon
Failure to Meet Milestone. 
  
 If FRESENIUS does not meet
the diligence obligations set forth in Section 5.3, then XCYTE may terminate this Agreement immediately without prior written notice. 
  
 14.4. Termination for Cause. 
  
 Either Party may terminate this Agreement for material breach by the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) of any material provision of the
Agreement, if the Breaching Party has not cured such breach within [*] days after notice thereof; provided, however, that neither Party shall be deemed to be in material breach of this Agreement for purposes of a termination
hereunder during any period in which a good faith dispute between the Parties exists regarding performance of breach of its obligations hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, it shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement if XCYTE terminates the
XCYTE In-Licenses or if at least one of the licensors of the XCYTE In-Licenses effectively terminates the XCYTE In-Licenses.

shall file in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any state, country or jurisdiction, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of that
Party or of its assets, or if such other Party proposes a written agreement of composition or extension of its debts, or if such other Party shall be served with an involuntary petition against it, filed in any insolvency proceeding, and such
petition shall not be dismissed within [*] days after the filing thereof, or if such other Party shall propose or be a party to any dissolution or liquidation, or if such other Party shall make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors.

  
 14.6. Termination of XCYTE In-Licenses. XCYTE
shall not terminate or enter into modifications of the XCYTE In-Licenses if such modification would materially and adversely affect the rights of FRESENIUS hereunder without FRESENIUS’ prior written consent. All rights and obligations under an
XCYTE In-License sublicensed under this Agreement shall terminate upon [*] days prior written notice by XCYTE if FRESENIUS breaches any material provision of such XCYTE In-License Agreement and fails to cure such breach within such [*]
day period; provided, however such cure period may be extended by consent of the Parties. All rights and obligations under an XCYTE In-License sublicensed under this Agreement shall terminate upon termination of such XCYTE In-License; subject to
FRESENIUS’ right, if any, under such XCYTE In-License to enter into a direct license with licensor upon the terms and conditions set forth in such XCYTE In-License.

 accordance with this Agreement to XCYTE with respect to such Product(s) within [*] days following the expiration
of such [*]-month period (“Sell Off Right”). 
  
 14.7.3 In the event this Agreement is terminated by FRESENIUS under Section 14.2, then, upon request of XCYTE, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith a commercially reasonable license to XCYTE under the FRESENIUS Patents, FRESENIUS
know-how and Regulatory Approvals or submissions, at royalty rates to be determined by good faith negotiations of the Parties at the time of such termination, taking into account factors including, but not limited to, the financial investment by
FRESENIUS during the term of the Agreement, the relative contributions of the Parties to the pre-clinical and clinical development of, and the regulatory efforts relating to, the product or products subject to royalties, the degree of protection
that the FRESENIUS Patents and FRESENIUS know-how afford against unlicensed competition, the potential market size for such product or products, and the then current “market rates” for royalties on licenses of similar scope for programs at
a similar stage of development; provided, however, that in no event shall the rate of such royalties be more than the rates set forth in Section 6.1. 
  
 14.7.3. Upon the expiration of the Royalty Term for each Product pursuant to Section 14.1, XCYTE hereby grants FRESENIUS a
royalty-free, perpetual, license in the Field within the Territory to use the XcellerateTM Technology for that Product.

 16.1.1. Each Party shall indemnify and hold harmless, and hereby forever releases and discharges the other Party from and
against all claims, demands, liabilities, damages and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and costs (collectively, the “Liabilities”) arising out of (i) the breach of any material provision of this Agreement by the indemnifying
Party (or the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by such Party in this Agreement), except to the extent such Liabilities resulted from the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the other Party; or (ii) the gross
negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the indemnifying Party.

 16.1.2. FRESENIUS shall indemnify and hold harmless, and hereby forever releases and discharges XCYTE
from and against all Liabilities suffered or incurred arising out of any Third Party claims for personal injury, death or disability or any product recall to the extent caused by (a) the use, promotion, manufacture, sale, lease, consumption or
advertisement of any Product or other exercise of its rights under this Agreement including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement of claims, proceedings, or investigations; except in each case to the extent such Liabilities resulted from
the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct by XCYTE or the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by XCYTE in this Agreement, and agrees to bear all costs and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable
attorney’s fees incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of any such claim, proceeding or investigation as such costs and expenses are incurred in advance of judgment. 
  
 16.2. Procedure. 
  
 A Party (the “Indemnitee”) that intends to claim indemnification under this Article 16 shall promptly provide notice to the other Party
(the “Indemnitor”) of any Liability or action in respect of which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification, which notice shall include a reasonable identification of the alleged facts giving rise to such Liability, and
the Indemnitor shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Indemnitor so desires, jointly with any other Indemnitor similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnitor; provided,
however, that the Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnitor, if representation of such Indemnitee by the counsel retained by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnitee and any other Party represented by such counsel in such proceedings. Any settlement of a Liability for which any Indemnitee seeks to be reimbursed, indemnified, defended or held
harmless under this Article 16 shall be subject to prior consent of such Indemnitee, such consent shall be withheld unreasonably. 
  
 ARTICLE 17- FORCE MAJEURE. 
 No Party (or any of
its Affiliates) shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party (or any of its Affiliates) nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached the Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of the Agreement when such
failure or delay is caused by or results from causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party (or any of its Affiliates) including fire, floods, embargoes, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), insurrections, riots, civil
commotions, acts of God or acts, or omissions or delays in acting by any governmental authority (collectively, “Events of Force Majeure”); provided, however, that the affected Party shall exert all reasonable efforts
to eliminate, cure or overcome any such Event of Force Majeure and to resume performance of its covenants with all possible speed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that an Event of Force Majeure continues for a period in excess of six
(6) months, the affected Party shall promptly notify in writing the other Party of such Event of Force Majeure and within four (4) months of the other Party’s receipt of such notice, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith either (i) to
resolve the Event of Force Majeure, if possible, (ii) to extend by mutual agreement the time period to resolve, eliminate,

 cure or overcome such Event of Force Majeure, (iii) to amend this Agreement to the extent reasonably possible, or (iv) to
terminate this Agreement.

 This Agreement may not be assigned or otherwise transferred, nor, except as expressly provided hereunder, may any right or obligations
hereunder be assigned or transferred to any Third Party by either Party without the consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that FRESENIUS may assign this Agreement to EUFETS, and
that either Party may, without such consent but with notification, assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates or in connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of its business, or in

invalid provisions that it can be reasonably assumed that the Parties would have entered into this Agreement with such provisions. 
  
 In case such provisions cannot be agreed upon, the invalidity of one or several provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity of this

 The Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, U.S.A., without
regard to the conflict of law principles thereof. 
  
 21.3.
Dispute Resolution. 
  
 The Parties agree that if
any dispute or disagreement arises between FRESENIUS on the one hand and XCYTE on the other in respect of this Agreement, they shall follow the following procedure in an attempt to resolve the dispute or disagreement. 
  
 (a) The Party claiming that such a dispute exists shall give notice in
writing (“Notice of Dispute”) to the other Party of the nature of the dispute; 
  
 (b) Within fourteen (14) business days of receipt of a Notice of Dispute, a nominee or nominees of FRESENIUS and a nominee or nominees of XCYTE shall meet
in person and exchange written summaries reflecting, in reasonable detail, the nature and extent of the dispute, and at this meeting they shall use their reasonable endeavors to resolve the dispute; 
  
 (c) If, within a further period of fourteen (14) business days, the dispute
has not been resolved, the President of XCYTE and the President of FRESENIUS or their respective designees shall meet at a mutually agreed upon time and location for the purpose of resolving such dispute; 
  
 (d) If, within a further period of thirty (30) business days, the dispute has
not been resolved or if, for any reason, the required meeting has not been held, then the same shall be submitted by the Parties to expedited arbitration with the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) in Paris, France, such
arbitration to be conducted in the English language in accordance with the then-current commercial arbitration rules of the ICC except as otherwise provided herein. Each Party shall choose one (1) arbitrator within twenty (20) days of receipt of
notice of the intent to arbitrate and the two (2) arbitrators so selected shall choose a third arbitrator by mutual agreement within twenty (20) days of the selection of the initial two (2) arbitrators; provided that if any of the arbitrators are
not selected within period of time stated herein or any extension of time that is mutually agreed upon, the ITI shall make such appointment within twenty (20) days of such failure. The costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally by the Parties;
provided that the judgment rendered by the arbitrator shall include reimbursement of the prevailing parties’ costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. Nothing in this Agreement
shall be deemed as preventing either Party from seeking injunctive relief (or any other provisional remedy). If the issues in dispute involve scientific, technical or commercial matters, any arbitrator chosen hereunder shall have educational
training and/or industry experience sufficient to demonstrate a reasonable level of relevant scientific, medical and industry knowledge. 
  
 (e) In the event of a dispute regarding any payments owing under this Agreement, all undisputed amounts shall be paid promptly when due and the balance,
if any, promptly after resolution of the dispute.

 21.4. Entire Agreement. 
  
 This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. All express or
implied agreements and understandings, either oral or written, heretofore made are expressly superseded by this Agreement. This Agreement may be amended, or any term hereof modified, only by a written instrument duly executed by both Parties hereto.

  
 21.5. Independent Contractors. 
  
 XCYTE and FRESENIUS each acknowledge that they shall be independent
contractors and that the relationship between the two Parties shall not constitute a partnership, joint venture or agency. Neither XCYTE nor FRESENIUS shall have the authority to make any statements, representations or commitments of any kind, or to
take any action, which shall be binding on the other Party, without the prior consent of the other Party to do so. 
  
 21.6. Affiliates. 
  
 Each Party shall cause its respective Affiliates to comply fully with the provisions of this Agreement to the extent such provisions specifically relate
to, or are intended to specifically relate to, such Affiliates, as though such Affiliates were expressly named as joint obligors hereunder. 
  
 21.7. Waiver. 
  
 The waiver by either Party hereto of any right hereunder or the failure to perform or of a breach by the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any
other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by said other Party whether of a similar nature or otherwise. 
  
 21.8. Counterparts. 
  
 This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and
the same instrument.
