15.7Severability; Reformation.  If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement or any portion of such a provision to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be reformed to the extent required to make the provision valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

15.8Entire Agreement.

15.12.1Subject to Section 7.1 and 7.2, if a dispute arises between the Parties in connection with or relating to this Agreement, including disputes that arise within the scope of the JGC, or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith (a “Dispute”), it shall be resolved pursuant to this Section 15.12.  Any Dispute shall first be referred to the Chief Executive Officers of the Parties, who shall confer in good faith on the resolution of the issue.  Any final decision mutually agreed to by the Chief Executive Officers shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties.

Each Party shall choose one (1) arbitrator within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of the intent to arbitrate.  Such arbitrators shall thereafter choose a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days of their appointment.  Any arbitrator chosen by the Parties or arbitrators will not have a material financial interest in any Party and will have significant experience with the arbitration of similar large, complex, commercial disputes between pharmaceutical companies.  Each Party in any arbitration proceeding commenced hereunder shall bear such Party’s own costs and expenses (including expert witness and attorneys’ fees) of investigating, preparing and pursuing such arbitration claim.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed as preventing either Party from seeking injunctive relief (or any other provisional remedy) from any court having jurisdiction over the Parties and the subject matter of the dispute as necessary to protect either Party’s name, intellectual property or Confidential Information.  If the Dispute involves scientific or technical matters, any arbitrator chosen hereunder shall have educational training and/or experience sufficient to demonstrate a reasonable level of knowledge in the applicable field.  The award rendered by the arbitrators with respect to such Dispute shall be written, final and non-appealable, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.  The existence and contents of the arbitration shall be kept confidential by each Party except to the extent that disclosure may be required to fulfil a legal duty, protect or pursue a legal right, or enforce or challenge an award in legal proceedings.
