SERVICES; STANDARD OF PERFORMANCE
SECTION 2.1 Services. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Pfizer agrees to perform for and provide to the Company and the applicable members of the Company Group the services identified in Exhibit A hereto, as such Exhibit A may be from time to time supplemented or modified in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (the “Services”). It is understood that the Services do not include, and Pfizer will not be obligated hereunder to perform or provide to the Company or any members of the Company Group, any services not expressly set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the “Excluded Services”). The provision to the Company or any member of the Company Group of the Excluded Services shall be discontinued on the Effective Date.
SECTION 2.2 Standard and Manner of Performance.
(a) Pfizer shall provide the Services with reasonable skill and care. Notwithstanding the foregoing and without limiting any other provision of this Agreement (including any schedule, exhibit or appendix hereto) unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, the standard of care for provision of Services shall be no less than the level of skill and care as is currently being provided to the Animal Health Business and has been provided in the twelve (12) months preceding the Effective Date.
(b) Pfizer shall have the right to perform its obligations under this Agreement through one or more of its Affiliates, and each of the foregoing may hire third party service providers, subcontractors and consultants to perform any of Pfizer’s obligations hereunder, including to provide all or part of any Service hereunder; provided, however, that Pfizer shall in all cases retain responsibility for the provision to the Company Group of the Services in accordance with this Agreement.

2






(c) As between the Parties, except as otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, Pfizer shall have sole discretion and authority with respect to designating, employing, assigning, compensating and discharging personnel and third party service providers in connection with performance of the Services. All such personnel and third party service providers so assigned to perform the Services shall be appropriately skilled and qualified to do so as reasonably determined by Pfizer.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no member of the Pfizer Group shall be required to expand or modify any facilities, incur any capital expenditures, acquire any additional equipment or software or retain any specific personnel or third party service providers in connection with its obligation to provide Services hereunder.
SECTION 2.3 Protection of Pfizer Information Systems.
(a) In providing information technology Services to the Company Group, Pfizer shall have the right to implement reasonable processes under which there will be no greater threat to Pfizer’s information technology operating environment than would exist in the absence of the provision of such Services.
(b) If, in connection with the provision of any Services under this Agreement, Pfizer implements any information technology connections, firewalls or the like (“Information System Additions”) specifically in connection with the provision of such Services and that would not have otherwise been implemented in the absence of the provision of the Services, the costs of implementing such measures shall be borne by the Company, unless specifically provided otherwise in a schedule, exhibit or appendix hereto or otherwise agreed to in writing by Pfizer.
SECTION 2.4 Service Functional Leads and TSA Manager. Each Party shall designate individuals to be the primary representatives for such Party with respect to each of the functional areas of the Services (e.g., information technology, etc.) (each, a Service Functional Lead”). Each Party shall also designate one individual to be the primary liaison between the Parties for the provision of and the transfer of responsibility for the Services (each, a “TSA Manager”). A Party may replace any of its Service Functional Leads or its TSA Manager at any time upon written notice to the other Party. The Parties agree that any issues arising under this Agreement in relation to a particular Service will be raised first between the Service Functional Leads responsible for the functional area of the relevant Service before being referred to the TSA Manager. All of the Service Functional Leads, under the direction of the TSA Managers, shall meet regularly in person, telephonically, or as they otherwise agree at regular intervals agreed by the TSA Managers during the Term, to discuss any issues arising under this Agreement that have not been resolved by the Service Functional Leads and the need for any modifications or additions to this Agreement. Each Party shall designate a senior executive to supervise the activity of the relevant TSA Managers (the “TSA Executive”). The TSA Executives shall meet at least quarterly during the Term in person, telephonically or as they otherwise agree to review delivery of Services and assess requests for modifications or additions to the Services, resolve disputes (in accordance with Section 9.1) and perform such other activities as the TSA Executives may agree.
SECTION 2.5 Service Changes.
(a) Pfizer shall be required to provide the Services only for the benefit of the members of the Company Group, only to the same scope, and only for the same volume of Services (plus any organic internal growth in such volume that is reasonably expected as of the Effective Date), and only to the same locations, that such Services were provided by Pfizer to the Animal Health Business in the ordinary course as of the Effective Date.  If the Company desires to have any Service provided to any member of the Company Group increased in scope or volume in a material way beyond the manner in which such Service is provided by Pfizer to the Animal Health Business in the ordinary course as of the Effective Date (plus any such reasonably expected organic internal growth in volume), the Company shall provide a written request to Pfizer for such increase in scope or volume of the Services, and Pfizer shall only be required to provide such increase in scope or volume of the Services if (i) such increase arises from organic internal growth (as opposed to mergers, acquisitions, consolidations or reorganizations), (ii) in Pfizer's sole judgment, Pfizer considers it commercially reasonable and the provision of such increase in scope or volume does not materially adversely affect any of Pfizer's other obligations and commitments and would not require Pfizer to provide any Services that it cannot provide using its then-current ordinary course resources and capabilities and (iii) all Costs incurred in providing such increased scope or volume of Services shall be borne by the Company.  Except in connection with relocations expressly contemplated in connection with the Transactions, if the Company desires to change the location to which any Service is provided to any member of the Company Group from the location to which such Service was provided by Pfizer to the Animal Health Business in the ordinary course as of the Effective Date, the Company shall provide a written request to Pfizer for such change of locations, and Pfizer shall only be required to provide the applicable Service to the new location if in Pfizer's sole judgment, the change in location does not materially adversely affect Pfizer's ability to provide the applicable Service.  All Costs incurred in changing the location of any Service shall be borne by the Company.
(b) To the extent that either Party desires a change to the term and/or scope of a Service (a “Service Change”) and such proposed Service Change is not governed by the foregoing Section 2.5(a), such Party may submit such proposed Service Change in writing to the TSA Manager of the other Party. Any Service Change may only be implemented upon the mutual 

3






written consent of both Parties (including, if applicable, an agreement in writing by both Parties of the increase or decrease in costs for such Service Change).
SECTION 2.6 Changes to the Manner of Performance. Pfizer may make changes from time to time in the manner of performing the Services if Pfizer is making similar changes in performing services for itself and/or its Affiliates; provided that Pfizer (a) may not terminate any Service, except pursuant to Article IV, and (b) will provide the Company with at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of any such changes that are material to the Company’s operation of its business. Except as provided in subsection (a) of the preceding sentence, nothing in this Agreement shall require Pfizer to provide Services at a level that is greater than the level at which Pfizer is then providing comparable services to itself and/or its Affiliates; provided, however, that if Pfizer ceases to provide such a comparable service to itself and/or its Affiliates, then Pfizer shall continue to provide such Services to the Company at the same level at which such Services are then being provided to the Company.
SECTION 2.7 Third Party Terms and Conditions; Consents. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Services provided by Pfizer through third party service providers, subcontractors or consultants, or using third party assets, including Intellectual Property, are subject to the terms and conditions of any applicable agreements with such third parties. Additionally, all members of the Company Group shall cooperate with and assist Pfizer in obtaining any consent, authorization, order or approval of, or any exemption by, any third party required to be obtained or made by Pfizer (or its Affiliates or third party service providers or subcontractors) for the performance of Pfizer’s obligations under this Agreement; provided that neither Party shall be obligated to incur any cost to obtain any such consent, authorization, order, approval or exemption, except that if any monies must be expended to pay for a consent, authorization, order, approval or exemption, or for the assignment of or for the purchase of any Intellectual Property or other assets to provide the Services to the Company Group, such costs shall be borne by the Company. If Pfizer is unable to obtain any required consents, authorizations, orders, approvals or exemptions, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) negotiate in good faith reasonable modifications of the Services such that such consents, authorizations, orders, approvals or exemptions are not required and (b) implement such modifications. Pfizer will not be in breach of this Agreement as a result of any non-performance of, or other effect upon, any applicable Services as a result of any failure to obtain any such consent, so long as it has otherwise complied with this Section 2.7. For the avoidance of doubt, if any consent, authorization, order, approval or exemption is required to be obtained or made with respect to any third party relationship for the receipt of Services, the Company shall be solely responsible for obtaining any such consent, authorization, order, approval or exemption, at its sole cost and expense.
SECTION 2.8 Transitional Nature of Services; Exit Plan and Assistance. The Parties hereto acknowledge the transitional nature of the Services.  Accordingly, as promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, the Company agrees to use reasonable best efforts to make a transition of each Service to its own internal organization or to obtain alternate third party sources to provide the Services.  In connection therewith, the Company shall comply with all provisions of the detailed written exit plan which sets forth how all members of the Company Group will transition from each of the Services provided hereunder in a timely and efficient manner without material risk or disruption to either the Company or to Pfizer and no later than the date for such Services specified on Exhibit A (the "Exit Plan").  The Exit Plan for each Service shall be prepared by the Company and provided to Pfizer no later than:  (i) March 1, 2013, for Services with a Service Period of six (6) months or less; (ii) May 1, 2013, for Services with a Service Period of between seven to twelve (7-12) months; and (iii) June 1, 2013, for Services with a Service Period of more than twelve (12) months.  Each Exit Plan shall be subject to Pfizer's written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Pfizer shall, at the Company's cost, provide the Company with assistance reasonably necessary to transition the Services to the Company in accordance with the Exit Plan; provided that Pfizer shall only be obligated to provide such assistance that is set forth in the Exit Plan.  The specific services and timing in connection with such Pfizer assistance shall be as mutually agreed to by the Parties.  Any Costs incurred by Pfizer in connection with providing such assistance shall be a Service Exit Cost and shall be paid by the Company in accordance with Section 5.1(a).  For clarity, notwithstanding the foregoing, Pfizer shall not be obligated to provide any services that either (a) Pfizer cannot provide using its then-current ordinary course resources and capabilities, giving due consideration to other obligations or (b) the Company is reasonably able to provide to itself or that are reasonably obtainable from third party service providers.  The foregoing assistance is deemed a "Service" for purposes of this Agreement.
SECTION 2.9 Cooperation.
(a) The Company agrees that it shall timely provide to the Pfizer Group, at no cost to Pfizer, access to such personnel, facilities, assets and information, books and records of the Company Group, and provide timely decisions, approvals and acceptances, in each case as may be reasonably necessary to enable Pfizer to perform its obligations under this Agreement in a timely and efficient manner.
(b) Without limiting the foregoing in this Section 2.9, each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other Party in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services and to minimize the expense, distraction and disturbance to each Party, and shall perform all obligations hereunder timely and in good faith and in accordance with 

4






principles of fair dealing. Such cooperation shall include (i) the execution and delivery of such further instruments or documents as may be reasonably requested by the other Party to enable the full performance of each Party’s obligations hereunder and (ii) notification of the other Party in advance of any changes to a Party’s operating environment or personnel, and working with the other Party to minimize the effect of such changes.
SECTION 2.10 Compliance.
(a) The Services provided hereunder may be provided to all members of the Company Group and the receipt of the Services may involve the Company Group's third party service providers, subcontractors and consultants.  The Company shall be responsible for its Affiliates', and its and their third party service providers', subcontractors' and consultants', compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(b)The Company acknowledges and agrees that Pfizer shall not, and may refuse to, provide any Service to the extent that the provision of such Service would require any member of the Pfizer Group, or any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or Subsidiaries, to violate (i) any applicable Laws (including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K. Bribery Act 2010) or (ii) any Pfizer policies and/or procedures.  Pfizer and the Company shall at all times comply with all applicable Laws in connection with the Services.
(c) Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, the Company shall and shall cause each member of the Company Group receiving Services hereunder to follow the policies, procedures and practices with respect to the Services followed by Pfizer, including those in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date and any changes to such policies, procedures and practices required due to changes in applicable Law (or changes in the interpretation or enforcement of applicable Law) or due to the Transactions following the Effective Date.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall and shall cause each member of the Company Group receiving Services hereunder to continue to follow Pfizer Corporate Policy 202 (Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption), Pfizer Corporate Procedure 215 (International Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption) and any local implementing Standard Operating Procedures (“SOPs”) with respect to the Services. Where the Company or any member of the Company Group lacks access to specific Pfizer systems or resources identified in Pfizer Corporate Procedure 215 or implementing SOPs, the Company shall make reasonable efforts to create and maintain substitute systems or resources.  Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with Services related to reimbursement of personnel time or expenses, the Company agrees that it shall audit and monitor such reimbursements for improper activity.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall comply with all Pfizer policies, procedures and regulations relating to continuity of business, computer and network security measures and data encryption, including any security requirements reasonably requested by Pfizer.  The Company shall comply with and shall cause each member of the Company Group to comply at all times with all applicable Laws in connection with the Services and the operation of the AH Business from and after the Effective Date.  Any Costs associated with any Compliance-related audit of the Company or any member of the Company Group shall be borne by the Company.
(d) During the Term, the Company shall not incorporate in any database to which the Company is provided with access hereunder any data or other information regarding any compounds that are owned by, or otherwise subject to the rights of, any Third Party.
(e) Prior to the Distribution, if effected, the Parties shall discuss in good faith, any amendments or modifications of this Section 2.10 reasonably requested by either the Company or Pfizer in light of the Services then being performed and the relevant compliance policies and procedures adopted and implemented by the Company.
SECTION 2.11 Internal Audits of Pfizer Managed Controls and Processes.
The Parties acknowledge and agree that Pfizer will, in the ordinary course of its business, conduct audits and testing of certain controls, processes and procedures that relate to the Services provided to the Company under this Agreement (a "Pfizer Managed Control or Process").  Pfizer agrees that as soon as reasonably practicable following the completion of such audit and testing, Pfizer will provide the Company with reasonable access to the audit or controls testing documentation for any such Pfizer Managed Control or Process that is material to the Company's business.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pfizer's responsibility shall be limited to providing reasonable access to audit or controls testing documentation it creates in the ordinary course of its business and Pfizer shall have no responsibility to conduct any particular audit or testing, create any specific documentation or to provide any interpretation of testing results, determination of the level of any potential deficiencies, risk assessments or materiality determinations (and, for clarity, the use of any such information provided by Pfizer is solely the Company's responsibility, without limiting the last sentence of this Section 2.11).  To the extent required by the Company in connection with its auditing requirements, the Company shall have the right to perform or have Pfizer perform, in each case at Pfizer's option and upon reasonable written notice, an audit and testing of any Pfizer Managed Control or Process.  If Pfizer agrees that the Company may perform such audit and testing then, upon reasonable written notice to Pfizer, Pfizer shall permit the Company representatives access during reasonable business hours and such audit may include reasonable testing procedures to cover key Financial and IT Controls within Pfizer 

5






Managed Controls or Processes, provided that, if any such audit or testing could provide or result in the Company having access to any sensitive Confidential Information of Pfizer (including tax and transfer pricing information), Pfizer may request that the Company appoint an independent third party audit firm reasonably acceptable to Pfizer to conduct such audit and testing.  All Costs of any such audits, including the Costs of a third party audit firm, shall be borne by the Company.  Within thirty (30) days of completing such audit, the Company shall submit a report to Pfizer with its findings.  Any information obtained or observed by the Company during an audit shall be subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in Section 6.09 and 6.10 of the Separation Agreement.  For clarity, unless the remediation or modification is necessitated by a change or discontinuation in service or other action by Pfizer, Pfizer shall have no responsibility to conduct any remediation or modification of any Pfizer Managed Control or Process unless otherwise agreed to by Pfizer in advance in writing in each instance, and, if any such remediation or modification (to the extent so agreed by Pfizer) is primarily for the benefit of the Company, the Company shall reimburse any Costs incurred by Pfizer or its Affiliates in connection therewith.
SECTION 2.12 Transition Employees
(a) With respect to each individual identified on Schedule 12 to Exhibit A (each a "Transition Employee"), subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Pfizer shall continue to employ such individual for his or her usual and customary function in connection with the applicable Service during the applicable Service Period until such individual becomes an employee of the Company or otherwise ceases to be an employee of Pfizer (the "Employee Transition Term").  The Company shall offer to continue such employment as of the day immediately following the expiration of the Employee Transition Term to each Transition Employee.  All Costs associated with the Transition Employees shall be borne by the Company and reimbursed by the Company to Pfizer in accordance with Section 5.1(a), Section 6.1, and Section 6.2.
(b) All Transition Employees shall, and the Company shall ensure that all Transition Employees do, comply with (i) all of policies and practices of and contractual obligations to Pfizer or its Affiliates, if any, applicable to such Transition Employee, and (ii) all terms and conditions of employment applicable to such Transition Employee.
ARTICLE III
CONFIDENTIALITY
SECTION 3.1 Confidentiality. Subject to Section 10.1(c), the confidentiality obligations of the Parties and each member of their respective Groups hereunder shall be governed, mutatis mutandis, by Section 6.09 and Section 6.10 of the Separation Agreement.
ARTICLE IV
TERM; TERMINATION
SECTION 4.1 Term. The Parties agree that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all Services commenced on the Service Commencement Date shall terminate at the expiration of the “Service Period” set forth in Exhibit A with respect to such Service, unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 4.2 (the "Term").  This Agreement shall expire upon the expiration or termination of the last Service to expire or be terminated.
SECTION 4.2 Termination.
(a) Any Service may be terminated, in whole or in part, by either Party by obtaining the written agreement of the other Party.
(b) The Company may terminate, in whole only, the provision of any Service by notifying Pfizer in writing at least ninety (90) days (or any longer period that may be set forth in Exhibit A with respect to a given Service) in advance of such termination; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided otherwise in a schedule, exhibit or appendix hereto, no such notice may be given until the sixtieth (60th) day following the Effective Date. For clarity, partial reduction in the provision of any Service may only be made with the prior written consent of Pfizer pursuant to Section 4.2(a).
(c) Either Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) may terminate this Agreement at any time upon prior written notice to the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) if the Breaching Party has failed (other than pursuant to Section 10.8) to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement, and such failure shall have continued without cure for a period of thirty (30) days (or with respect to any failure by the Company to make any payment as provided for under this Agreement five (5) days) after receipt by the Breaching Party of a written notice of such failure from the Non-Breaching Party seeking to terminate this 

6






Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s obligations under Section 2.10 shall be deemed to be material obligations under this Agreement.
SECTION 4.3 Effect of Expiration and Termination; Accrued Rights; Survival.
(a) Expiration and termination of this Agreement, in part or in its entirety, shall not extinguish any rights or obligations that have accrued to the benefit of either Party prior to such expiration or termination (as applicable), including any rights of Pfizer to receive payment under Section 5.1 hereof.
(b) The following provisions of this Agreement, together with all other provisions of this Agreement that expressly specify that they survive, shall survive expiration and termination of this Agreement, in part or in its entirety: Article III, Article VIII, Article IX and Article X, and Sections 4.3, 5.2, and 7.1. For the avoidance of doubt, Pfizer shall be under no obligation to provide any technical support for any migrated data, systems or applications following the termination date of any Service in respect thereof except to the extent that the need for technical support is a direct result of Pfizer’s breach of this Agreement.
ARTICLE V
COMPENSATION
SECTION 5.1 Compensation
(a) The Company shall pay to Pfizer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement:  (i) the Set-Up Costs, (ii) the Service Exit Costs, and (iii) beginning on the Service Commencement Date, a monthly fee for each Service provided to the Company and its Affiliates hereunder in accordance with the charges for such Service set forth in Exhibit A (the "Monthly Service Fees", and together with the Set-Up Costs, Service Exit Costs, the "Service Fees").  To the extent that any Third-Party Costs are not reflected in Pfizer's calculation of the Service Fee under this Section 5.1(a), such Third-Party Costs shall be in addition to the Service Fee.  For clarity, all Third-Party Costs will be passed through to the Company at Pfizer's or its Affiliates' cost without markup in accordance with this Article V.
(b) Pursuant to Section 5.1(a), it is the intent of the Parties that, for the first two years during which Pfizer provides the Services to the Company under this Agreement, the Service Fees set forth in Exhibit A reasonably approximate the Costs of providing the Services, including the cost of employee wages and compensation, without any intent to cause Pfizer to receive profit or incur loss. For each Service that Pfizer continues to provide to the Company beyond such two-year period, Pfizer may also introduce into the relevant Monthly Service Fee a mark-up on Internal Costs of seven percent (7%), which percentage shall remain in effect unless and until amended upon the mutual written consent of the Parties. If at any time Pfizer believes that the Monthly Service Fee contemplated by a specific Service in Exhibit A is materially insufficient to compensate it for the Cost of providing the Services it is obligated to provide hereunder, or the Company believes that the Monthly Service Fee contemplated by a specific Service in Exhibit A materially overcompensates Pfizer for such Services (taking into account, after the first two years during which Pfizer provides the Services to the Company under this Agreement, the seven percent (7%) mark-up on Internal Costs), such Party shall notify the other Party as soon as possible, and the Parties hereto will commence good-faith negotiations toward an agreement in writing as to the appropriate course of action with respect to pricing of such Services for future periods. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that additional employee hiring or retention costs not reflected in Exhibit A may be reasonably incurred by Pfizer to hire or retain necessary employees to provide Services, which costs shall be for the account of the Company and shall be reimbursed by the Company to Pfizer in accordance with Section 5.1(a), Section 6.1, and Section 6.2, and shall be subject to prior written approval of the Company if they exceed $50,000 individually or $250,000 in the aggregate.
(c) Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, if following the second anniversary of the Effective Date, the Company requests that the Term of a Service be extended for three (3) months or more, or the Company fails to exit a Service upon the expiration of the Term of such Service, then all Service Fees payable on or after the original termination date of, and with respect to, such Service, shall be subject to a ten percent (10%) surcharge for six (6) months and a fifteen percent (15%) surcharge thereafter. For the avoidance of doubt, such surcharge shall also be applied to any mark-up on Internal Costs pursuant to Section 5.1(b). This Section 5.1(c) shall not be construed to create any obligation on Pfizer to provide any Service beyond the Term of such Service set forth on Exhibit A.
SECTION 5.2 Taxes.
(a) Service Fees set forth on Exhibit A are exclusive of any VAT chargeable with respect to the supply of the Services to the Company or a member of the Company Group under this Agreement, and VAT, as appropriate, shall be added to the amount invoiced pursuant to this Agreement. In the event of any amendment to VAT legislation or for any other reason the sums invoiced without VAT in accordance with this Agreement become or are subject to VAT, then the applicable invoices shall be 

7






deemed to be exclusive of VAT (if any) and the Company or the member of the Company Group receiving such invoices shall, in addition to the sums payable, pay Pfizer, or its invoicing Affiliate, on receipt of a valid VAT invoice, the full amount of VAT chargeable thereon.
(b) The Company or the applicable member of the Company Group shall be responsible for all goods and services, value added, sales, use, gross receipts, business, consumption and other similar taxes, levies and charges (other than income taxes) imposed by applicable taxing authorities attributable to the supply of Services to the Company Group or any payment hereunder, whether or not such taxes, levies or charges are shown on any invoices. If Pfizer or its applicable Affiliate is required to pay any part of such taxes, levies or charges, the Company shall, or shall cause the applicable member of the Company Group to, reimburse Pfizer or its applicable Affiliate for such taxes, levies and charges.
(c) In the event that applicable Law requires that an amount in respect of any taxes, levies or charges be withheld from any payment by the Company (or the applicable member of the Company Group) to Pfizer (or its applicable Affiliate) under this Agreement the amount payable to Pfizer (or its applicable Affiliate) shall be increased as necessary so that, after the Company (or the applicable member of the Company Group) has withheld amounts required by applicable Law, Pfizer (or its applicable Affiliate) receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such withholding been required, and the Company (or the applicable member of the Company Group) shall withhold such taxes, levies or charges and pay such withheld amounts over to the applicable taxing authority in accordance with the requirements of the applicable Law and provide Pfizer (or its applicable Affiliate) with a receipt confirming such payment. Pfizer shall reasonably cooperate with the Company to determine whether any such deduction or withholding applies to the Services, and if so, shall further reasonably cooperate to minimize applicable withholding taxes.
(d) Each Party shall, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all members of its respective Group to, cooperate and reach mutual agreement with the other Party in all matters relating to (i) identification of the jurisdiction(s) in which each Service provided under this Agreement is performed or received, (ii) any allocation required by applicable Law between the site of performance and the site of receipt with respect to each such Service and (iii) timely notifying the other Party with respect to any changes to such jurisdiction(s) with respect to each such Service. Further, Pfizer and the Company will reasonably cooperate with one another to reduce any applicable withholding Tax to the extent allowed under applicable Law.
