During the Term and for three (3) years after this Agreement has expired or been terminated in its entirety, upon written notice to such Pfizer Licensee, such Company Licensor shall have the right, at its own expense, using an independent certified public accounting firm (that has been retained on an hourly or flat fee basis and receives no contingency fee or other bounty or bonus fee) selected by such Company Licensor and reasonably acceptable to such Pfizer Licensee to audit such Pfizer Licensee's, its Affiliates', and its Sublicensees' books and records during normal business hours not more than once during any Calendar Year, solely to verify the accuracy of any payments made or required to be made hereunder in respect of any Calendar Year ending not more than three (3) years prior to the date of such notice (provided that such restriction on the number of permitted audits per Calendar Year shall not apply to the extent that (a) such Company Licensor has a reasonable, good faith belief that such Pfizer Licensee or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees failed to comply with any of their obligations hereunder or (b) a prior audit demonstrates that such Pfizer Licensee or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees failed to comply with any of their obligations hereunder).  Each Pfizer Licensee shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to, reasonably cooperate with each such audit.  The independent certified public accounting firm shall prepare a report based on each such audit, a copy of which shall be sent or otherwise provided to the applicable Pfizer









 Licensee at the same time that it is sent or otherwise provided to the applicable Company Licensor, and such report shall contain the conclusions of such accounting firm and will specify that the amounts paid pursuant thereto were correct or, if incorrect, the amount of any underpayment or overpayment.  The opinion of said independent accounting firm in connection therewith shall be binding on the Company, Pfizer, each of their respective Affiliates, and with respect to Pfizer, all Sublicensees, other than in the case of manifest error.
5.3.2     Audit Fees and Expenses. Each Company Licensor shall be responsible for any and all fees and expenses it incurs in connection with an audit conducted in accordance with Section 5.3.1; provided that, in the event that such an audit reveals an underpayment by the applicable Pfizer Licensee of more than five percent (5%) as to the period subject to such audit, such Pfizer Licensee shall reimburse the applicable Company Licensor for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such audit within thirty (30) days of such Company Licensor’s invoice therefor.
5.3.3     Payment of Deficiency/Overpayments.
(a)If any audit conducted in accordance with Section 5.3.1 establishes that a Pfizer Licensee underpaid any amounts due to a Company Licensor or any of its Affiliates under this Agreement, such Pfizer Licensee shall pay such Company Licensor any such deficiency within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, such payment shall be considered a late payment, subject to Section 5.2.
(b)If any audit conducted in accordance with Section 5.3.1 establishes that a Pfizer Licensee has overpaid any amounts due to a Company Licensor or any of its Affiliates under this Agreement, such Company Licensor shall, at such Pfizer Licensee’s sole discretion, (i) refund the excess payments to such Pfizer Licensee within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice thereof or (ii) offset all such excess payments against any outstanding and future amounts owed to such Company Licensor hereunder.
6. RIGHTS OF REFERENCE
6.1     Pfizer Rights. Upon a Pfizer Licensee’s reasonable written request, the applicable Company Licensor shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide each applicable Regulatory Authority with a letter of authorization that allows such Regulatory Authorities to access such Company Licensor’s and its Affiliates’ Reference Filings submitted as of the Effective Date with respect to the Licensed Products solely to the extent necessary for such Regulatory Authority to approve the INDs, Regulatory Approval Applications and any necessary updates thereto that are submitted by or on behalf of such Pfizer Licensee, its Affiliates or any of its Sublicensees for any Licensed Products in the Pfizer Field in the Territory (to the extent that the applicable Pfizer Licensee, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees has rights hereunder with respect thereto) (collectively, the “Pfizer Submissions”).

6.3.2 If submission of a Regulatory Dossier as described in Section 6.3.1 is not permitted by Applicable Law, then the Filing Party will provide the applicable Company Licensor (if the Filing Party is a Pfizer Licensee) or the applicable Pfizer Licensee (if the Filing Party is a Company Licensor) (such Company Licensor and Pfizer Licensee, the "Dossier Controlling Party") with a copy of the Regulatory Dossier solely for disclosure to the applicable Regulatory Authorities to the 









extent necessary for the applicable Regulatory Authorities to approve, with respect to a Company Licensor, the Company Submissions and, with respect to a Pfizer Licensee, the Pfizer Submissions.  For clarity, the Dossier Controlling Party shall ensure that the Regulatory Dossier is disclosed to the Regulatory Authorities without any modifications except for translations to the local language required by Applicable Law.
6.3.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.3.3, in the event that a Dossier Controlling Party has a reasonable, good faith belief that the Regulatory Authority to whom the applicable Regulatory Dossier will be disclosed will not maintain the confidentiality of any Confidential Information of the Dossier Controlling Party, the Dossier Controlling Party shall notify the other Party and (a) the Parties shall promptly discuss how to address such issue and (b) in no event will such Confidential Information be disclosed to the applicable Regulatory Authority against the reasonable, good faith objection of the Dossier Controlling Party.

7.1.3 information that becomes available to the Receiving Party or its Affiliates following the Effective Date on a non-confidential basis from a Third Party who is not bound directly or indirectly by a duty of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party; provided that, in each of the foregoing Sections 7.1.1 through 7.1.3, such information shall not be deemed to be within the foregoing exceptions merely because such information is embraced by more general knowledge that is publicly known or in the Receiving Party’s possession, and no combination of features shall be deemed to be within the foregoing exceptions merely because individual features are publicly known or in the Receiving Party’s possession, unless the particular combination itself and its principle of operations are in the public domain or in the Receiving Party’s possession without the use of or access to Confidential Information.
7.2     General Obligations.  The Receiving Party shall protect all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (including the Company Know-How) against unauthorized uses and disclosures, and disclose to Third Parties, using the same degree of care as the Receiving Party uses with respect to its own similar information (which in no event shall be less than a reasonable degree of care); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Pfizer Licensees shall keep strictly confidential, and shall not disclose to any Person, the Confidential Information that, from time to time, the Parties identify as, and agree in writing is, Confidential Information that shall be kept strictly confidential.

Subject to the foregoing, the Person that received such a request or determined that it is required to disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party may thereafter disclose or provide such Confidential Information to the extent required by such Applicable Law (as so advised by counsel) or requested or required by such Governmental Authority; provided, however, that such Person provides the Disclosing Party, to the extent legally permissible, upon request with a copy of the Confidential Information so disclosed.

Each Party shall comply, and shall cause its Affiliates (including, with respect to the Company, the Company Licensors and their Affiliates and, with respect to Pfizer, the Pfizer Licensees and their Affiliates) and with respect to Pfizer, all Sublicensees to comply, with all Applicable Laws in performing its and their obligations and exercising its and their rights pursuant to this Agreement.  









8.4     FCPA.
8.4.1 With respect to the performance of its obligations hereunder and without limiting the generality of Section 8.3, each Party shall comply, and shall cause its Affiliates (including, with respect to Pfizer, the Pfizer Licensees and their Affiliates and, with respect to the Company, the Company Licensors and their Affiliates) to comply, with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (as modified or amended and equivalent laws through the world, including the UK Bribery Act 2010) (the “FCPA”).

9.1     Indemnification.  Except as provided in Section 9.2, each Party shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the other Party, its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all Losses of the Indemnitees relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the following items (without duplication and including any such Losses arising by way of setoff, counterclaim or defense or enforcement of any Lien): (a) the research, development, manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale, import or export following the Effective Date of Licensed Products by such Party, its Affiliates or with respect to Pfizer, any of its Sublicensees, (b) such Party's, its Affiliates' or with respect to Pfizer, any of its Sublicensees' (as applicable) exercise of any of its rights or performance of its obligations pursuant to the terms hereof (including for clarity, Section 2.4), (c) any personal injuries, death and/or property damages (including Losses associated with damage, disease or illness to livestock, or resulting from exposure or contact (through physical proximity, consumption or otherwise) to such livestock) resulting from the use of any Licensed Product of such Party, any of its Affiliates or with respect to Pfizer, its Sublicensees, following the Effective Date, (d) the fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct of such Party, its Affiliates or with respect to Pfizer, its Sublicensees (as applicable) following the Effective Date, or (e) breach by such Party, its Affiliates or with respect to Pfizer, any of its Sublicensees (as applicable) of any provision of this Agreement, except to the extent any of the foregoing (a) through (e) was caused by any of the other Party's Indemnitees' fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct following the Effective Date or any Action for which the other Party has an obligation to indemnify such Party pursuant to this Section. 
9.2     Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts.









9.2.1 The Parties intend that any Loss subject to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Article 9 will be net of Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of the Loss. Accordingly, the amount which any Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any Indemnitee will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds theretofore actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of the related Loss. If an Indemnitee receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Loss and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds, then the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made.
9.2.2 An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other Third Party shall be entitled to a "wind-fall" (i.e., a benefit such insurer or other Third Party would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate any Person in any Group to seek to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds.
9.2.3 Any Indemnity Payment made by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after making all payments in respect to Taxes imposed on or attributable to such Indemnity Payment, each Pfizer Indemnitee receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such Taxes been imposed. Any Indemnity Payment made by Pfizer shall be increased as necessary so that after making all payments in respect to Taxes imposed on or attributable to such Indemnity Payment, each Company Indemnitee receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such Taxes been imposed.
9.3     Procedures for Indemnification of Third Party Claims.
9.3.1 If an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by a Third Party (including any Governmental Authority) of any claim or of the commencement by any such Third Party of any Action with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 9.1, or any other Section of this Agreement (collectively, a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as promptly as practicable (and in any event within forty-five (45) days) after becoming aware of such Third Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnitee or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 9.3 shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article 9, except to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice.
9.3.2 An Indemnifying Party may elect (but shall not be required) to defend, at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee), any Third Party Claim; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to defend and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for all Indemnitees if the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal action, indictment or allegation. Within forty-five (45) days after the receipt of notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with Section 9.3.1 (or sooner, if the nature of such Third Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnitee of its election whether the Indemnifying Party will assume responsibility for defending such Third Party Claim, which election shall specify any reservations or exceptions to its defense. After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnitee; provided, however, in the event that (a) the Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim but has specified, and continues to assert, any reservations or exceptions in such notice or (b) the Third Party Claim involves injunctive or equitable relief, then, in any such case, the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for all Indemnitees shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party.
9.3.3 If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending a Third Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election as provided in Section 9.3.2, such Indemnitee may defend such Third Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. Any legal fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with defending such claim shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party at the then applicable regular rates charged by counsel, without regard to any flat fee or special fee arrangement otherwise in effect between such counsel and the Indemnitee.
9.3.4 Unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, no Indemnitee may settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party. If an Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim within the time period specified in Section 9.3.2 above, it shall not be a defense to any obligation to pay any amount in respect of such Third Party 









Claim that the Indemnifying Party was not consulted in the defense thereof, that such Indemnifying Party’s views or opinions as to the conduct of such defense were not accepted or adopted, that such Indemnifying Party does not approve of the quality or manner of the defense thereof or that such Third Party Claim was incurred by reason of a settlement rather than by a judgment or other determination of liability.
9.5 In the case of a Third Party Claim, no Indemnifying Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of the Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnitee if the effect thereof is (a) to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other non-monetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against any Indemnitee or (b) to ascribe any fault on any Indemnitee in connection with such defense.
9.2.6 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a written release from all Liability in respect of such Third Party Claim.
9.4     Additional Matters.
9.4.1 Any claim on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnitee to the related Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30) day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30) day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such Indemnitee as contemplated by this Agreement.
9.4.2 In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.
9.4.3 In the event of an Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party shall so request, the Parties shall endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant or otherwise hold the Indemnifying Party as party thereto, if at all practicable. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the named defendant shall allow the Indemnifying Party to manage the Action as set forth in this Section, and the Indemnifying Party shall fully indemnify the named defendant against all costs of defending the Action (including court costs, sanctions imposed by a court, attorneys’ fees, experts’ fees and all other external expenses), the costs of any judgment or settlement, and the cost of any interest or penalties relating to any judgment or settlement with respect to such Third Party Claim.
9.5     Remedies Cumulative.  The remedies provided in this Article 9 shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Section 18.4, shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.
9.6     Survival of Indemnities. The indemnity contained in this Article 9 shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (a) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee; and (b) the knowledge by the Indemnitee of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Party and their respective Indemnitees under this Article 9 shall survive the termination of any license granted hereunder.
9.74     Intellectual Property.  Notwithstanding the foregoing Sections 9.1 through 9.6, in the event and to the extent that any Third Party Claim relates to or may affect or otherwise impair either Party's or a Third Party's ownership of or rights in or the validity or enforceability of or rights to use Intellectual Property hereunder, the prosecution and defense of such aspects of such Third Party Claim shall be governed by Article 12, Article 13 and Article 14 to the extent that such Article addresses such prosecution or defense.
10. LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY
10.1     Consequential Damages Waiver.  NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES (INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPANY, ANY COMPANY LICENSORS OR ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES AND WITH 









RESPECT TO PFIZER, ANY PFIZER LICENSEES OR ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES) BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS SUFFERED BY AN INDEMNITEE, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DAMAGES ARISING HEREUNDER; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT TO THE EXTENT AN INDEMNITEE IS REQUIRED TO PAY ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS TO A PERSON WHO IS NOT THE OTHER PARTY OR AN AFFILIATE OF THE OTHER PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH A THIRD PARTY CLAIM, SUCH DAMAGES WILL CONSTITUTE DIRECT DAMAGES AND NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 10.
11. INSURANCE
11.1     Obligations to Maintain Insurance.  Pfizer shall maintain during the Term and for five (5) years after termination or expiration of this Agreement, commercial general liability insurance from a minimum "A-" AM Best rated insurance company, including contractual liability and product liability or clinical trials, if applicable, with coverage of not less than Five Million US Dollars (US$5,000,000) per occurrence and Five Million US Dollars (US$5,000,000) in the aggregate.  Pfizer has the right to provide the total coverage required by any combination of primary and umbrella/excess coverage.  Each such insurance policy shall name the Company and its Affiliates as additional insured and provide a waiver of subrogation in favor of the Company and its Affiliates.  Such insurance policies shall be primary and non-contributing with respect to any other similar insurance policies available to the Company or its Affiliates.  Pfizer shall be responsible for its own deductibles or retentions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, Pfizer shall be permitted to satisfy the foregoing obligations to maintain insurance through self-insurance.  For clarity, the minimum level of insurance set forth herein shall not be construed to create a limit on Pfizer's liability hereunder.
11.2     Policy Notification. Pfizer shall provide the Company with original certificates of insurance (which, for clarity, may be provided in electronic form) evidencing the insurance requirements set forth in Section 11.1 (a) prior to execution by both Parties of this Agreement, and (b) on an annual basis. The Company shall be provided at least thirty (30) days (ten (10) days in the case of cancellation for non-payment of premium) written notice prior to cancellation, termination, or any material change to restrict the coverage or reduce the limits afforded.

17.2.4     Pfizer's Right to Terminate Without Cause.  Upon sixty (60) days written notice to the Company, Pfizer may terminate this Agreement on a Patent-by-Patent or Know-How-by-Know-How basis or in its entirety without cause.
17.3     Effect of Expiration and Termination; Accrued Rights; Survival.
17.3.1     Payment. Within thirty (30) days of expiration or termination of this Agreement in part or in whole (or such later date with respect to those costs that are incurred but cannot be reported as of such date), Pfizer shall pay the Company all amounts due to the Company with respect to the Licensed Product(s) as of the effective date of such expiration or termination.
17.3.2     Inventory. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 17.3, if this Agreement terminates pursuant to a Pfizer Termination Event after the first commercial sale of a Licensed Product, the applicable Pfizer Licensee shall have the right to sell its remaining inventory of such Licensed Product(s) so long as Pfizer has fully paid, and continues to pay fully when due, any and all Third Party Payments owed to the Company hereunder based on such sales. For purposes of this Section 17.3, “Pfizer Termination Event” means termination (a) in accordance with Section 17.2.1, (b) by the Company in accordance with Section 17.2.2, (c) based on, or related to, Pfizer or a Pfizer Material Indebtedness in accordance with Section 17.2.3, or (d) in accordance with Section 17.2.4.
17.3.3     Accrued Rights.  Upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to a Pfizer Termination Event, in part or in its entirety: (a) all licenses and rights granted to the applicable Pfizer Licensee with respect to the Intellectual Property to which such termination relates shall immediately terminate and (b) any sublicenses that have been granted to a Sublicensee with respect to the Patent Rights or Know-How to which such termination relates shall immediately terminate.  Termination of this Agreement, in part or in its entirety, shall be without prejudice to any rights which shall have accrued to the benefit of either Party prior to such expiration and termination (as applicable).  In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 17.2 for any reason that is not a Pfizer Termination Event, the licenses granted to the Pfizer Licensees as of the date of such termination shall survive such termination and all provisions of this Agreement (including, for clarity, Sections 17.1 and 17.2) to the extent related thereto shall survive, as if this Agreement with respect thereto has not terminated.
17.3.4     Surviving Obligations.  Without limiting any other provisions in this Article 17, the following Sections and Articles (along with the provisions herein that expressly specify survival terms or that would, by their nature, survive termination) shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason (collectively, the "Surviving Provisions"): 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 4.1 and 4.2 (each, for the periods of time set forth in such Sections), 5.1 (along with any provisions governing payment of such amounts hereunder), 5.3 (for the period of time set forth in such Section), 6 (but only with respect to Reference Filings and Regulatory Dossiers submitted prior to expiration or termination of this Agreement), 7, 8.2, 9, 10, 11 (for the period of time set forth in such Section), 12, 14.8, 14.9, 17.3 and 18.  Without limiting any of the rights or remedies otherwise available to either Party, each Party acknowledges and agrees that each of its obligations with respect to the Surviving Provisions shall continue, remain binding, and survive termination of this Agreement (and, without limiting the 









foregoing, shall not be dischargeable in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or similar proceeding); and that each of its obligations with respect to the Surviving Provisions is and shall be specifically enforceable under Applicable Law.
18. MISCELLANEOUS
18.1     Compliance with Laws. Neither Party nor any of their Affiliates will be required by this Agreement to take or omit to take any action in contravention of any Applicable Law, including any applicable national and international pharmaceutical industry codes of practices. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither Party nor any of their Affiliates shall be required to promote or otherwise commercialize a Licensed Product, or incur any expense in connection with any activity under this Agreement, that it reasonably believes, in good faith, may violate any Applicable Law (including any applicable national and international pharmaceutical code of practice) or “corporate integrity” or similar agreement with any Governmental Authority to which it is a party.
18.2     Assignability. For clarity, the rights, benefits, and obligations of the Pfizer Licensees under (or relating to) this Agreement (including any licenses or sublicenses granted pursuant to this Agreement) are personal to the Pfizer Licensees. Pfizer may not assign (including in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding) or assume in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding this Agreement or any rights, benefits, or obligations under or relating to this Agreement, in each case whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the Company’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that Pfizer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any part hereof to one or more of its Affiliates, or to a successor to all or substantially all of its business and assets to which this Agreement (or part thereof that is assigned) relates, without the Company’s consent. In the event of a permitted assignment, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns. Any attempted assignment that contravenes the terms of this Agreement shall be void ab initio and of no force or effect.
18.3     Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof that would result in the application of any law other than the laws of the State of New York and, to the extent applicable to Intellectual Property, the applicable federal laws of the United States of America (without regard to conflict of laws principles).
18.4     Dispute Resolution.
18.4.1 General. The following procedures shall be used to resolve any dispute, controversy or claim that may arise out of or relate to, or arise under or in connection with this Agreement or the breach, termination, or validity thereof (each, a “Dispute”):
(a)Promptly after the written request of either Party (“Request”), the Senior Executives shall meet in person or by telephone to attempt to resolve any Dispute. If, for any reason, the Senior Executives do not resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt by a Party of such Request, then the Senior Executives shall meet in person or by telephone to review and attempt to resolve the Dispute.
(b)If, for any reason, the Senior Executives fail to resolve the Dispute within sixty (60) days of receipt by a Party of a Request in accordance with Section 18.4.1(a), the Parties shall attempt to resolve the Dispute with the assistance of a mediator agreed upon by the Parties or, in default of such agreement, within seventy-five (75) days of receipt by a Party of a Request, at the request of any Party, such mediator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The mediation shall be held in New York, New York and in accordance with the then-prevailing Commercial Mediation Rules of the AAA.
(c)All negotiations and mediation in connection with the Dispute shall be conducted in strict confidence and without prejudice to the rights of the Parties in any future legal proceedings. Except for any Party’s right to seek interlocutory relief in the courts, no Party may commence any form of arbitration in accordance with Section 18.4.2 until twenty (20) Business Days after the appointment of a mediator or until one hundred twenty (120) days after the receipt by a Party of a Request, whichever occurs sooner.
(d)If, with the assistance of the mediator, the Parties reach a settlement, such settlement shall be reduced to writing and, once signed by a duly authorized representative of each of the Parties, shall be and remain binding on the Parties. The Parties shall bear their own legal costs of the mediation, but the costs and expenses of the mediator and the AAA shall be borne by the Parties equally.









18.4.2 Arbitration.
(a)All Disputes that for any reason are not timely resolved by the Parties in accordance with Sections 18.4.1(a) through 18.4.1(d) shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration to be administered by the AAA in accordance with the then-prevailing Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA (the "Rules").  The seat of the arbitration shall be in New York County, New York.  The arbitration shall be held and the award shall be issued in the English language.  If the amount in controversy is Three Million US Dollars (US$3,000,000) or less (including all claims and counterclaims), there shall be one arbitrator who shall be agreed upon by the Parties within twenty (20) days of receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration.  If the amount in controversy is more than Three Million US Dollars (US$3,000,000) (including all claims and counterclaims), there shall be three (3) neutral and impartial arbitrators, one of whom shall be appointed by each of the Parties within thirty (30) days of receipt by respondent of the demand for arbitration, and the third (3rd) arbitrator, who shall chair the arbitral tribunal, shall be appointed by the Party appointed arbitrators within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the second (2nd) arbitrator.  If any arbitrator is not appointed within the time limit provided herein, such arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the listing, striking, and ranking procedures in the Rules.  Any arbitrator appointed by the AAA shall be a retired judge or an attorney with no less than fifteen (15) years of experience with commercial cases and an experienced arbitrator, who shall, if practicable, have experience with transactions or disputes related to the field of pharmaceutical development and technology and/or, if applicable, intellectual property (including Patent Rights and trade secrets).
(b)    All arbitrators shall be neutral and impartial and shall not be officers or employees of either Party. The cost of the arbitration, including the fees and expenses of the arbitrator(s), will be shared equally by the Parties. The arbitrator(s) shall have the right to award damages and other relief but will not have the authority to award any damages or remedies not available under the express terms of this Agreement. The arbitration award will be presented to the Parties in writing and will include findings of fact and, where appropriate, conclusions of law. The award may be confirmed and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.
(c)    Prior to the appointment of the arbitral tribunal, either Party may seek injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce compliance with the provisions of this Section 18.4.2 or otherwise in aid of arbitration or to maintain the status quo or prevent irreparable harm. The Parties hereby submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and State courts located in New York, New York (the “New York Courts”) for such purpose. Without prejudice to such provisional remedies as may be available under the jurisdiction of the New York Courts, the arbitrator(s) shall have full authority to grant provisional remedies and to direct the Parties to request that any New York Court modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary relief issued by any such New York Court, and to award damages for the failure of any Party to respect the arbitrator’s(s’) orders to that effect.
18.5     Specific Performance.  In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the Party or Parties who are or are to be thereby aggrieved shall have the right to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief of its rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.
18.6     Force Majeure. No Party shall be deemed in default of this Agreement to the extent that any delay or failure in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement results from any cause beyond its reasonable control and without its fault or negligence, such as acts of God, acts of civil or military authority, embargoes, epidemics, war, riots, insurrections, fires, explosions, earthquakes, floods, unusually severe weather conditions, labor problems or unavailability of parts, or, in the case of computer systems, any failure in electrical or air conditioning equipment. In the event of any such excused delay, the time for performance shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay.
18.7     Advisors. It is acknowledged and agreed by each of the Parties that Pfizer, on behalf of itself and the other members of the Pfizer Group, has retained each of the Persons identified on Schedule 11.11 to the Global Separation Agreement to act as counsel in connection with this Agreement, the Global Separation Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Contribution and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and that the Persons listed on Schedule 11.11 to the Global Separation Agreement have not acted as counsel for the Company or any other member of the Company Group in connection with this Agreement, the Global Separation Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Contribution and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and that none of the Company or any member of the Company Group has the









 status of a client of the Persons listed on Schedule 11.11 to the Global Separation Agreement for conflict of interest or any other purposes as a result thereof. The Company hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and each other member of the Company Group that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Effective Date in connection with this Agreement, the Global Separation Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Contribution and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby between Pfizer and the Company or any of the members of their respective Groups, each of the Persons listed on Schedule 11.11 to the Global Separation Agreement may represent any or all of the members of the Pfizer Group in such dispute even though the interests of the Pfizer Group may be directly adverse to those of the Company Group. The Company further agrees, on behalf of itself and each other member of the Company Group that, with respect to this Agreement, the Global Separation Agreement, the other Ancillary Agreements, the Contribution and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to Pfizer or the applicable member of the Pfizer Group and may be controlled by Pfizer or such member of the Pfizer Group and shall not pass to or be claimed by the Company or any member of the Company Group. Furthermore, the Company acknowledges and agrees that Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP is representing Pfizer, and not the Company, in connection with the Transactions.

No provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed waived, amended, supplemented or modified by any Party, unless such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification is in writing and signed by the authorized representative of the Party against whom it is sought to enforce such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification.
18.11     Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the









 remaining provisions hereof or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.
18.12     Further Assurances.

18.14     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 Pfizer and the Company, or to constitute one Party as the agent of the other. Moreover, each Party agrees not to construe this Agreement, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, as a partnership for any tax purposes. 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 Party.
18.15     No Construction Against Drafter. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement and all the terms and conditions contained herein have been fully reviewed and negotiated by the Parties. Having acknowledged the foregoing, the Parties agree that any principle of construction or rule of law that provides that, in the event of any inconsistency or ambiguity, an agreement shall be construed against the drafter of the agreement shall have no application to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Article, Section, Exhibit, Schedule and Appendix references are to the Articles, Sections, Exhibits, Schedules and Appendices to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. The word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall mean “including, without limitation”, unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified.

Execution of this Agreement or any other documents pursuant to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic copy of a signature shall be deemed to be, and shall have the same effect as, executed by an original signature.
18.18.2 This Agreement, the Global Separation Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, and the exhibits, the schedules, and appendices hereto and thereto contain the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, supersede all previous agreements, negotiations, discussions, writings, understandings, commitments and conversations with respect to such subject matter and there are no agreements or understandings between the Parties with respect to such subject matter other than those set forth or referred to herein or therein.









18.18.3 If, a Company Licensor and the applicable Pfizer Licensee are parties to a Local Separation Agreement entered into prior to the Effective Date, any license of Company Patent Rights, Company Know-How, or Company Future Patent Rights pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as occurring pursuant to such Local Separation Agreement on the effective date of such Local Separation Agreement.
