Each of the amounts set forth above shall be determined from the books and records of Zai, its Affiliate or Sublicensee, maintained in accordance with GAAP or in the case of Sublicensees, such similar accounting principles, consistently applied, and any amounts that are deducted from Net Sales pursuant to one subsection may not be deducted pursuant to another subsection (i.e., a deduction may only be taken once).

The transfer of a Product to an Affiliate, Sublicensee, or other Third Party (i) in connection with the Development or testing of a Product (including the conduct of clinical studies), (ii) for purposes of distribution as promotional samples, (iii) for indigent or similar public support or compassionate use programs, or (iv) by and between Zai and its Affiliates or Sublicensees shall not, in any case, be considered a Net Sale of a Product under this Agreement.

For clarity, in the event the Product is sold in an arms-length transaction to a governmental agency, a group purchase entity or any other entity having the bargaining power to negotiate the purchase price below normal retail price in transactions of lesser volume, Net Sales shall be calculated based on the actual price negotiated and agreed to for such agency or entity and not be based on the price charged in other arms-length sales transactions.

To the extent that Zai or any of its Affiliates, or Sublicensees, provides to the purchasing Third Party discounts or allowances that are applicable to purchases of the Product and one or more other products (such as in a “bundled sale” arrangement), such discounts and allowances shall be allocated between the Product (for purposes of the deductions used in calculating Net Sales as above) and such other 


10

92975109_3



243114426 v7

 
 


 



products in an equitable and commercially reasonable manner that does not unfairly or inappropriately bias the level of discounting against the Product (as compared to the other products).

If Zai or any of its Affiliates, or Sublicensees, sells a Product as a Licensed Component of a Combination Product in the Territory in any Calendar Quarter, then Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying the Net Sales of the Combination Product during such Calendar Quarter by the fraction A/(A+B), where A is the average Net Sales per unit sold of the Licensed Component when sold separately in the Territory during such Calendar Year (calculated by determining the Net Sales of the Licensed Component during such Calendar Quarter in accordance with the definition of Net Sales set forth herein and dividing such Net Sales by the number of units of the Licensed Component during such Calendar Quarter) and B is the average Net Sales per unit sold of the Other Component(s) included in the Combination Product when sold separately during such Calendar Quarter (calculated by determining the Net Sales of such Other Component(s) sold during such Calendar Quarter by applying the definition of Net Sales set forth herein as if it applied to sales of such Other Component(s) and dividing such Net Sales by the number of units of such Other Component(s) sold during such Calendar Quarter).  In each case, A and B shall be adjusted on a pro rata basis to account for dosing differences between the amounts of Licensed Component and Other Component(s) included in the Combination Product relative to the amounts of Licensed Component and Other Component(s) included in the separately sold product.

For purposes of calculating the average Net Sales per unit sold of a Licensed Component and Other Component(s) of a Combination Product, any of the deductions described herein that apply to such Combination Product shall be allocated among sales of the Licensed Component and sales of the Other Component(s) included in such Combination Product as follows: (1) deductions that are attributable solely to the Licensed Component or one of the Other Component(s) shall be allocated solely to Net Sales of the Licensed Component or such Other Component, as applicable, and (2) all other deductions shall be allocated among sales of the Licensed Component and sales of the Other Component(s) in proportion to Zai’s and TPTX’s mutual agreement of the fair market value of the Licensed Component and the Other Component(s).

In the event that no separate sales of the Licensed Component or any Other Component(s) included in a Combination Product are made by Zai or its Affiliates, or Sublicensees, during a Calendar Quarter in which such Combination Product is sold, the average Net Sales per unit sold in the above described equation shall be replaced with Zai’s and TPTX’s mutual written agreement of the fair market value of the Licensed Component and each of the Other Component(s) included in such Combination Product.

(a)Subject to permitted disclosures under Section 10.1(b) or under Section 10.2(c), each of the Parties agrees not to disclose to any Third Party the terms and conditions of this Agreement without the prior approval of the other Party, except to (i) advisors (including consultants, financial advisors, attorneys and accountants), (ii) bona fide potential and existing investors, acquirers, merger partners or other financial or commercial partners on a need to know basis for the sole purpose of evaluating an actual or potential investment, acquisition or other business relationship, in each case under circumstances that reasonably protect the confidentiality thereof, (iii) to the extent necessary to comply with the terms of agreements with Third Parties, or (iv) to the extent required by Applicable Laws, including securities laws and regulations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree upon the initial press release(s) to announce the execution of this Agreement as contained in Schedule 10.2(a); thereafter, TPTX and Zai may each disclose to Third Parties the information contained in such press release(s) or in any other press releases or disclosures made in accordance with this Section 10.2, without the need for further approval by the other.  

(b)The Parties acknowledge the importance of supporting each other’s efforts to publicly disclose results and significant developments regarding a Product for use in the Field in the Territory and other activities in connection with this Agreement, beyond what may be strictly required by Applicable Laws and the rules of a recognized stock exchange, and each Party may make such disclosures from time to time with respect to a Product in the case of TPTX, with prior notice to Zai, and in the case of Zai, with the prior written approval of TPTX, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  Such disclosures may include achievement of significant events in the Development (including regulatory process) or Commercialization of a Product for use in the Field in the Territory.  Unless otherwise requested by the applicable Party, Zai shall indicate that TPTX is the licensor of a Product and Licensed Technology in each public disclosure issued by Zai regarding a Product.  When Zai elects to make any public disclosure under this Section 10.2(b) or TPTX elects to make any public disclosure regarding results and significant developments regarding a Product for use in the Field in the Territory under this Section 10.2(b), the disclosing Party shall give the other Party reasonable notice to review and comment on such statement, and, in the case of proposed disclosures by Zai, (i) if TPTX does not notify Zai in writing within [***] days or such shorter period if required by Applicable Laws of any reasonable objections, as contemplated in this Section 10.2(b), such disclosure shall be deemed approved, and (ii) if TPTX does notify Zai in writing within the time period set forth in clause (i) above, and reasonably determines that such public disclosure would entail the public disclosure of TPTX’s Confidential Information or of patentable Inventions upon which patent applications should be filed prior to such public disclosure, such public disclosure shall be delayed for such period as may be reasonably necessary for deleting any such Confidential Information of TPTX, or the drafting and filing of a patent application covering such Inventions; provided that such additional period shall not exceed [***] days from the proposed date of the public disclosure, and, in any event, TPTX shall work diligently and reasonably to agree on the text of any proposed disclosure in an expeditious manner.  The principles to be observed in such disclosures shall be accuracy, compliance with Applicable Laws and regulatory guidance documents, and reasonable sensitivity to potential negative reactions of applicable Regulatory Authorities.

(c)The Parties acknowledge the need to keep investors and others informed regarding such Party’s business under this Agreement, including as required by Applicable Laws or the rules of a recognized stock exchange.  To the extent a Party is publicly listed or becomes publicly listed, and subject to Section 10.2(b) as applicable, such Party may issue press releases or make disclosures to the SEC or other applicable agency as it determines, based on advice of counsel, as reasonably necessary to comply with laws or regulations or for appropriate market disclosure; provided that each Party shall provide the other Party with advance notice of legally required disclosures to the extent practicable.

Zai.  A Party shall own all Inventions (in the case of Zai, other than Improvements) that are invented, discovered, generated or made solely by it, its Affiliates, or its or its Affiliates’ employees, agents or independent contractors (“Sole Inventions”), and (i) TPTX’s Sole Inventions shall be included in the Licensed Technology (if within the scope of such definition) and included in the licenses and rights granted to Zai by TPTX hereunder; and (ii) Zai’s Sole Inventions (which are not Improvements) shall be included in the Zai IP (if within the scope of such definition) and included in the licenses and rights granted to TPTX by Zai hereunder.  The Parties shall jointly own all Inventions (other than Improvements) that are made jointly by a Party, its Affiliate, or its or its Affiliate’s employees, agents or independent contractors together with the other Party, its Affiliates, or its or its Affiliate’s employees, agents or independent contractors (“Joint Inventions”).  Patents claiming the Joint Inventions shall be referred to as “Joint Patents.”  Each Party shall own an undivided equal interest in the Joint Inventions and Joint Patents, without a duty of accounting or an obligation to seek consent from the other Party for the exploitation or license of the Joint Inventions or Joint Patents (subject to the licenses granted to the other Party under this Agreement).  

(c)Zai shall and hereby does assign to TPTX all right, title and interest in and to all Improvements.  Zai shall take (and cause its Affiliates, Sublicensees and their employees, agents, and contractors to take) such further actions reasonably requested by TPTX to effectuate such assignment and to assist TPTX in obtaining Patent and other intellectual property rights protection for the Improvements.  Zai shall obligate its Affiliates, Sublicensees and contractors to assign all Improvements to Zai (or directly to TPTX) so that Zai can comply with its obligations under this Section 13.1(c), and Zai shall promptly obtain such assignment.

13.2.Disclosure of Inventions.  Each Party shall promptly disclose to the other Party all Inventions, including all invention disclosure or other similar documents submitted to such Party by its or its Affiliates’ employees, agents, or independent contractors relating to such Inventions, and shall also promptly respond to reasonable requests from the other Party for additional information relating to such Inventions.

13.3.Patent Prosecution.  

(a)Licensed Patents and Joint Patents in the Territory.  TPTX shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to conduct Patent Prosecution and maintenance of (i) the Licensed Patents in the Territory and (ii) Joint Patents in the Territory, at its sole cost.  TPTX shall consult with Zai and keep Zai reasonably informed of the Patent Prosecution or maintenance of the Licensed Patents and Joint Patents in the Territory and shall provide Zai with all material correspondence received from any patent authority in the Territory in connection therewith.  In addition, TPTX shall provide Zai with drafts of all proposed material filings and correspondence to any patent authority in the Territory in connection with the Patent Prosecution or maintenance of the Licensed Patents or Joint Patents for Zai’s review and comment prior to the submission of such proposed filings and correspondence.  TPTX shall consider in good faith Zai’s comments on such Patent Prosecution or maintenance but shall have final decision-making authority under this Section 13.3(a).  Further, TPTX shall notify Zai of any decision to cease Patent Prosecution or maintenance of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in the Territory at least [***] days before any due date for filing, payment or other action to avoid loss of rights, in which case Zai shall have the right to continue the Patent Prosecution or maintenance of such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in the Territory at Zai’s discretion and expense.  If Zai decides to take over Patent Prosecution or maintenance of a Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in such region(s) in the Territory, then TPTX shall promptly deliver to Zai copies of all necessary files related to such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in such region(s) in the Territory and shall take all actions and execute all documents reasonably necessary for Zai to assume such responsibility.  For the avoidance of doubt, Zai’s assumption of responsibility for Patent Prosecution or maintenance of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in any region(s) in the Territory pursuant to this Section 13.3(a) shall not change the Parties’ respective ownership rights with respect to such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent.

(b)Zai Patents.  Zai shall, at its sole cost and expense, have the sole right, but not the obligation, in the Territory and the first right, but not the obligation, outside the Territory, to conduct the Patent Prosecution and maintenance of any Patents within the Zai IP (the “Zai Patent”).  Zai shall keep TPTX reasonably informed of the status of all actions taken, and shall consider in good faith TPTX’s recommendations with respect to the Zai Patents prosecuted by Zai worldwide.  Further, Zai shall notify TPTX of any decision to cease Patent Prosecution or maintenance of any Zai Patent outside the Territory at least [***] days before any due date for filing, payment or other action to avoid loss of rights, in which case TPTX shall have the right to continue the Patent Prosecution or maintenance of such Zai Patent outside the Territory at TPTX’s discretion and expense.  If TPTX decides to take over Patent Prosecution or maintenance of a Zai Patent outside the Territory, then Zai shall promptly deliver to TPTX copies of all necessary files related to such Zai Patent outside the Territory and shall take all actions and execute all documents reasonably necessary for TPTX to assume such responsibility.  For the avoidance of doubt, TPTX’s assumption of responsibility for Patent Prosecution or maintenance of any Zai Patent outside the Territory pursuant to this Section 13.3(b) shall not change the Parties’ respective ownership rights with respect to such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent.

(c)Joint Patents Outside the Territory.  TPTX shall have the sole decision-making authority, at its sole cost and expense, over the Patent Prosecution and maintenance of Joint Patents outside the Territory.

13.4.Enforcement.

(b)Zai shall have the first right to bring and control any legal action in connection with such Product Infringement in the Territory at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.  If Zai does not bring such legal action prior to the earlier of: (i) [***] days following Zai’s receipt or delivery of the notice under Section 13.4(a), or (ii) [***] days before the deadline, if any, set forth in the Applicable Laws for the filing of such actions, or discontinues the prosecution of any such action after filing without abating such infringement, TPTX shall have the right to bring and control any legal action in connection with such Product Infringement at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.

(c)TPTX shall have the exclusive right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any legal action in connection with any alleged or threatened infringement by a Third Party of any of the Licensed Patents (other than Joint Patents) that is not a Product Infringement, and any related declaratory judgment, opposition, or similar action by a Third Party alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any of the Licensed Patents (other than Joint Patents), at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.

(d)Zai shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to enforce the Joint Patents in the Territory for any infringement that is not a Product Infringement at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.  TPTX shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to enforce the Joint Patents outside the Territory for any infringement at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.  If the Party with the first right of enforcement in respect of Joint Patents under this Section 13.4(d) decides not to bring such legal action in any jurisdiction(s) subject to its first right, it shall so inform the other Party promptly and the other Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any legal action in connection with such infringement in such jurisdiction(s) at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.

(e)TPTX shall have the first right to bring and control any legal action in connection with any alleged or threatened infringement by a Third Party of any of the Zai Patents (other than Joint Patents), which infringement adversely affects or is expected to adversely affect any Product in the Field outside the Territory, and any related declaratory judgment, opposition, or similar action by a Third Party alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any of the Zai Patents (other than Joint Patents) outside the Territory, at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.  If TPTX does not bring such legal action prior to the earlier of: (i) [***] days following receipt or delivery of notice between the Parties regarding such alleged infringement, or (ii) [***] days before the deadline, if any, set forth in the Applicable Laws for the filing of such actions, or discontinues the prosecution of any such action after filing without abating such infringement, Zai shall have the right to bring and control any legal action in connection with infringement at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 13.4(e), Zai shall have the exclusive right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any legal action in connection with any alleged or threatened infringement by a Third Party of any of the Zai Patents (other than Joint Patents), and any related declaratory judgment, opposition, or similar action by a Third Party alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any of the Zai Patents (other than Joint Patents), at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate.  

(f)At the request of the Party bringing an action related to Product Infringement or otherwise as described in this Section 13.4, the other Party shall provide reasonable assistance in connection therewith, including by executing reasonably appropriate documents, cooperating in discovery and joining as a party to the action if required by Applicable Laws to pursue such action, at each such Party’s sole cost and expense.  In connection with an action related to Product Infringement or otherwise as described in this Section 13.4, the Party bringing the action shall not enter into any settlement admitting the invalidity or non-infringement of, or otherwise impairing the other Party’s rights in the Licensed Patents, Zai Patents or Joint Patents, as applicable, without the prior written consent of the other Party.  The enforcing Party shall keep the non-enforcing Party reasonably informed of the status of any action it brought in connection with such Product Infringement or otherwise as described in this Section 13.4.  The non-enforcing Party shall be entitled to attend any substantive meetings, hearings, or other proceedings related to any such action pursued by the enforcing Party.  The enforcing Party shall provide the non-enforcing Party with copies of all pleadings and other documents to be filed with the court reasonably in advance and shall consider in good faith reasonable and timely input from the non-enforcing Party during the course of the action.  

(g)Any recoveries resulting from enforcement action relating to a claim of Product Infringement or otherwise as described in this Section 13.4 shall be first applied against payment of the enforcing Party’s costs and expenses in connection therewith and then the non-enforcing Party’s costs and expenses in connection therewith.  Any such recoveries in excess of such costs and expenses shall [***].  

13.5.Defense.  

(a)Each Party shall notify the other in writing of any allegations it receives from a Third Party that the Development, Manufacture, use, Commercialization or other exploitation of any Licensed Compound or Product or any embodiment of any technology or intellectual property licensed by a Party under this Agreement infringes the intellectual property rights of such Third Party.  Such notice shall be provided promptly, but in no event after more than [***] days following receipt of such allegations.

243114426 v7

 
 


 



15.2.Continuance of Rights and Obligations during Pendency of Dispute Resolution.  If there are any Disputes in connection with this Agreement, including Disputes related to termination of this Agreement under ARTICLE 14, all rights and obligations of the Parties shall continue until such time as any Dispute has been resolved in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 15.

15.3.Escalation.  Any Dispute shall be referred to the Executive Officers for attempted resolution.  In the event the Executive Officers are unable to resolve such Dispute within [***] days of such Dispute being referred to them, then, upon the written request of either Party to the other Party, the Dispute shall be subject to arbitration in accordance with Section 15.4.

15.4.Arbitration.

(a)If the Parties fail to resolve the Dispute through escalation to the Executive Officers under Section 15.3, and a Party desires to pursue resolution of the Dispute, the Dispute shall be submitted by either Party for final resolution by arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC Rules”), excepted as modified herein.  Any disputes concerning the propriety of the commencement of the arbitration or the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate shall be finally settled by the arbitral tribunal.  The arbitration shall be conducted by a tribunal of three (3) arbitrators, each with at least fifteen (15) years of pharmaceutical industry experience.  An arbitrator shall be deemed to meet this qualification unless a Party objects within [***] days after the arbitrator is nominated.  Within [***] days after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall nominate one (1) arbitrator and the two (2) Party-nominated arbitrators shall nominate a third arbitrator, who shall serve as the chairperson of the tribunal, within [***] days of the second arbitrator’s appointment.  The seat of arbitration shall be [***] and the language of the proceedings, including all communications, shall be English.

(b)The Parties agree that any award or decision made by the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon them and may be enforced in the same manner as a judgment or order of a court of competent jurisdiction, and the Parties undertake to carry out any award without delay.  The arbitral tribunal shall render its final award or decision within nine (9) months from the date on which the request for arbitration by one of the Parties wishing to have recourse to arbitration is received by the ICC Secretariat.  The arbitral tribunal shall resolve the Dispute by applying the provisions of this Agreement and the governing law set forth in Section 16.5.  

(c)By agreeing to arbitration, the Parties do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue, at the request of a Party, a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment or other order to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, preserve the subject matter of the Dispute, or aid the arbitration proceedings and the enforcement of any award.  Without prejudice to such provisional or interim remedies in aid of arbitration as may be available under the jurisdiction of a competent court, the arbitral tribunal shall have full authority to grant provisional or interim remedies and to award damages for the failure of any Party to the dispute to respect the arbitral tribunal’s order to that effect.

(d)EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES: (I) ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL OF ANY ISSUE BY JURY, AND (II) ANY CLAIM FOR ATTORNEY FEES, COSTS AND PREJUDGMENT INTEREST.

(e)The arbitrators will be authorized to award compensatory damages, but will not be authorized to (i) award non-economic damages, (ii) award punitive damages or any other damages expressly excluded under this Agreement, or (iii) reform, modify or materially change this Agreement or any other agreements contemplated hereunder; provided, however, that the damage limitations described in clauses (i) and (ii) will not apply if such damages are statutorily imposed.  Each Party shall bear its own attorney’s fees, costs, and disbursements arising out of the arbitration, and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the administrator and the arbitrators; provided, however, that the arbitrators shall be authorized to determine whether a Party is the prevailing party, and if so, to award to that prevailing party reimbursement for any or all of its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and 


57

243114426 v7

 
 


 



disbursements (including, for example, expert witness fees and expenses, photocopy charges, travel expenses, etc.), or the fees and costs of the administrator and the arbitrators.

(f)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 15.4, in the event of a Dispute with respect to (i) the validity, scope, enforceability or ownership of any Patent or other intellectual property rights, (ii) a matter for which this Agreement assigns decision-making to the Parties or to the JSC or requires the consent of one or both of the Parties, (iii) the necessity of obtaining a Third Party license by Zai in the Territory in accordance with Section 9.4(c)(iii), or (iv) any antitrust, anti-monopoly or competition law or regulation, whether or not statutory, and such Dispute is not resolved in accordance with Section 15.3, such Dispute shall not be submitted to an arbitration proceeding in accordance with this Section 15.4, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, and instead, either Party may initiate litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction in any country in which such rights apply.

ARTICLE 16

Miscellaneous

16.1.Force Majeure.  Neither Party shall be held liable to the other Party nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in performing any obligation under this Agreement to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party including embargoes, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), insurrections, riots, civil commotions, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, fire, floods, pandemics, epidemics or other acts of God or any other deity (or orders of any Governmental Authority related to any of the foregoing), or acts, omissions or delays in acting by any Governmental Authority.

16.3.Severability.  If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, unless the absence of the invalidated provision(s) adversely affects the substantive rights of the Parties.  The Parties shall in such an instance use their best efforts to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) with valid, legal and enforceable provision(s) which, insofar as practical, implement the purposes of this Agreement.
