Upon the occurrence of the applicable events under Sections 5.1 and 5.2, Par shall (i) promptly provide written notice thereof to IntelGenx and, (ii) within fourteen (14) days following the receipt of an invoice therefor provided by IntelGenx, remit the fee payments payable to IntelGenx under Sections 5.1 and/or 5.2 (as applicable) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated in writing by IntelGenx.





5.4              Expenses. Each party shall bear all costs and expenses associated with its responsibilities under this Agreement, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.





5.5              Royalties.





5.5.1           Royalty Rates. Par shall pay to IntelGenx a royalty equal to [***] of the Net Profits of each Product and AG Product during the Term.





5.5.2           Payment of Royalties. Following Commercial Launch of a Product or commercial launch of an AG Product, within thirty (30) days of the end of each Calendar Quarter during the Term, Par shall, for such Product or AG Product sold by Par during such Calendar Quarter, (i) compute in accordance with





13


GAAP, the Net Sales and Net Profit and (ii) pay IntelGenx's share of the Net Profit payable pursuant to Section 5.5.1. Each payment shall be accompanied by a written report (in the format attached as Exhibit D hereto) outlining the details surrounding the calculation of Net Profits.





5.5.3           Records and Audits. Par and its Affiliates shall keep and maintain or cause to be maintained books and records pertaining to the calculation of Net Profits during the Term and for three (3) years thereafter. Such books and records shall be maintained in accordance with GAAP and with all records and details necessary to enable IntelGenx to verify the foregoing. All factors included in the determination of the Net Profits shall be specific to each Product and/or AG Product, reasonably documented, and available for independent audit purposes. IntelGenx shall have the right once per calendar year, at its own expense, during the Term and for three (3) years thereafter, to have an independent public accountant, reasonably acceptable to Par, audit the relevant financial books and records of account of Par for up to the preceding three (3) years during normal business hours, upon reasonable advance notice, to determine or verify the applicable Net Profits. If errors are found, any deficiency shall be paid promptly following delivery of written documentation reasonably substantiating such deficiency, subject to Par having a reasonable period to verify the accuracy of such figures, and if errors are discovered as a result of such audit in IntelGenx's favor exceeding the greater of five percent (5%) and Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) for the period audited (which shall be no less than one (1) year), Par shall reimburse lntelGenx for the reasonable expense of such audit.





5.5.4           Accounting. The Parties acknowledge that any expenses or costs deducted in determining Net Sales and Net Profits under this Agreement may be based upon accruals, which accruals will be compliant with GAAP; provided, however, that when the actual results become known relative to any accrued amount, any difference between the actual results and the accrual shall be accounted for in the subsequent payments due hereunder (subject to customary processing delays). To the extent that the difference between such accruals and the actual results has led to an underpayment, Par shall pay IntelGenx the amount of such underpayment on the next date payment is due to IntelGenx hereunder. To the extent that the difference between such accruals and the actual results has led to an overpayment to IntelGenx, Par may at its option set-off such overpayments against subsequent payments to be made to IntelGenx or issue an invoice for the overpayment, which shall be paid by lntelGenx within forty-five (45) days after IntelGenx's receipt thereof. By the date that is forty-five (45) days after the end of the sixth month following the expiration of the last lot of a Product and/or AG Product for which a sale was made pursuant to this Agreement, Par shall reconcile (and give to IntelGenx a report of such reconciliation) all accrued calculations and deductions used in the calculations of Net Sales of such Product or AG Product with actual processed credits. If the report shows an underpayment to IntelGenx, Par shall pay IntelGenx the amount of the underpayment at the time it gives the report to IntelGenx. If the report shows an overpayment to IntelGenx, IntelGenx shall pay Par the amount of the overpayment within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such reconciliation.





ARTICLE 6. EXCLUSIVITY AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY





6.1              Exclusivity. During the Term, neither Party, by itself, its Affiliate or through any Third Party, shall develop, seek regulatory approval for, manufacture, import, market, sell, distribute, or otherwise commercialize in the Territory any Drug Product that is a Therapeutic Equivalent to any Brand Product or otherwise work on the development of, or supply of any Product, any AG Product, or any Drug Product that is a Therapeutic Equivalent to any Brand Product, except for the development and commercialization of any Product or commercialization of any AG Product pursuant to this Agreement.


14


6.2              Right of First Negotiation. In the event lntelGenx successfully completes a [***] is a Therapeutic Equivalent to a branded pharmaceutical product (the "[***]"), IntelGenx shall promptly provide Par with written notice thereof. Par shall have the exclusive right, for a period of forty-five (45) days after receipt of such notice, to negotiate with IntelGenx to agree upon and execute a definitive agreement for Par to become the co-marketer, co-distributor or exclusive marketer and/or distributor in the Territory, as the case may be, for the [***]. The Parties shall each negotiate in good faith with each other during such period. If, prior to the end of such forty-five (45) day period (or such longer period as may be mutually agreed upon by the Parties), a definitive agreement in respect thereof has not been executed by the Parties, IntelGenx shall thereafter owe no further obligation to Par with respect to the commercialization of the [***], and may negotiate and execute a definitive agreement with a Third Party in respect of the development and/or commercialization of the [***], but only if the terms and conditions of such agreement, taken as a whole, are not materially more favorable to such Third Party than the terms and conditions set forth in the last best written offer provided to Par by lntelGenx.





6.3              General Ownership. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, each Party shall own its own Intellectual Property consistent with United States or other applicable international patent, trademark, and copyright law.





6.4              Product Intellectual Property.





6.4.1           lntelGenx shall have the exclusive right to enforce Intellectual Property that is Controlled by IntelGenx covering each Product against Third Parties that may (or may attempt to) make, have made, use, have used, sell, have sold, import or have imported, or otherwise market or commercialize any Drug Product containing the API of such Product and having the same dosage form as such Product, including the tight to collect damages.  Par shall, at IntelGenx's cost and expense, cooperate with IntelGenx in good faith in connection with the foregoing, as IntelGenx may reasonably request. In the event that IntelGenx elects not to enforce such Intellectual Property, Par shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enforce such Intellectual Property as set forth in this Section 6.4.1, and IntelGenx shall cooperate with Par in connection therewith.




6.4.2           Intellectual Property that is jointly invented or conceived during the Term under this Agreement shall be jointly owned by the Parties, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Employees of lntelGenx, whether serving as advisors or consultants to Par or serving Par in any other capacity, shall be considered employees of IntelGenx for the purpose of determining ownership of Intellectual Property.





6.4.3           For the avoidance of doubt, Intellectual Property covering inventions or improvements that are created or conceived in the course of developing a Product shall be owned solely by a Party if only its employees create or conceive such invention or improvement.





6.5              License Grant.





6.5.1           IntelGenx hereby grants to Par a limited, exclusive (even as to IntelGenx), irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free license under the Intellectual Property that is Controlled by IntelGenx or its Affiliates to manufacture, have manufactured, use, sell, have sold and import and/or otherwise for the sole purpose of the commercialization of each Product and/or AG Product in the Territory (including all components thereof).





15


6.5.2           The license granted to Par under Section 6.5.1 is sublicensable (and further sublicensable), in whole or in part, to Third Parties in arm's-length transactions, subject to the following terms: (i) Par shall provide IntelGenx with written notice of any intended sublicense, including the name of the intended sublicensee and the material terms thereof; and (ii) IntelGenx shall, within ten (10 business days (or such shorter period as is reasonably specified by Par to address the exigencies of negotiation of an agreement with such sublicensee) after delivery of Par's written notice to IntelGenx, provide written notice to Par indicating whether it approves the sublicense proposed by Par, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, it being acknowledged and agreed by IntelGenx that it shall consider in good faith the need to sublicense a substitute Third Party manufacturer in the event of any supply disruption involving the Manufacturer. The failure of lntelGenx to deliver such written notice to Par within such ten (10) business day period shall be deemed to be an approval of such proposed sublicense. Any sublicense approved or deemed approved under this Section 6.5.2 shall be consistent with the terms of this Agreement, including an obligation for such sublicensee to comply with obligations similar to those set forth in this Agreement.





6.6              Reserved Rights. Subject to Sections 6.1 and 6.5 hereof, Par acknowledges and agrees that IntelGenx may, now or in the future and without obligation to Par, develop, use or employ Intellectual Property that is Controlled by IntelGenx for other products, including formulation and process, various analytical methods, stability protocols and other methods, techniques or information similar to those used in connection with the Product hereunder (excluding Par's Confidential Information) to pursue other business and product development activities that are part of lntelGenx' business without obligation to Par.





6.7              Authorized Generic Product. Par shall be permitted, without requiring license or approval from IntelGenx, to enter into an agreement with the owner of any Brand Product under which Par may sell an AG Product (an "AG Agreement"), and Par may thereafter acquire, use, sell and otherwise market such AG Product pursuant to such AG Agreement in the Territory. Par shall be allowed to sell such AG Product in place of, or in addition to, the Product to which such AG Product relates; provided, however, that in the event that Par enters into an AG Agreement, Par shall continue to be bound by its royalty obligations to IntelGenx under Section 5.5.1 during the Term, and will pay the applicable percentage of Net Profits as set forth in Section 5.5 on the sales of both AG Product and Product.  For purposes of clarification, if Par enters into an AG Agreement related to a Product, Par shall remain obligated to pay any unpaid development fees in respect of such Product that were earned by IntelGenx in accordance with Section 5.1 prior to Par’s entry into such AG Agreement.





6.8              Notification. The Parties shall promptly notify each other of any allegation that any activity undertaken pursuant to this Agreement that infringes or may infringe the Intellectual Property rights of any Third Party. Each Party shall assist and cooperate with the other Party in the defense of any suit, action, Proceeding or claim relating to a Product (including consenting to being named as a nominal party thereto).





6.9              Patent and Regulatory Litigation.





6.9.1 Par's legal counsel shall be responsible for managing any litigation brought by the Parties or by a Third Party seeking a judicial determination of whether the submission of Par's ANDA or the importation, manufacture, use, sale or marketing of a Product infringes the patent rights of such Third Party ("Patent Litigation"). Par's legal counsel shall also be responsible for managing the Parties' participation in any Proceedings and litigation related to citizen's petitions filed with the FDA regarding a





16


Product or any claims based on or related to the Parties' or a Third Party's attempt to secure, challenge or appeal an FDA decision concerning such Product or competitive products (collectively, "Regulatory Litigation"). Par shall control and manage Patent Litigation and Regulatory Litigation and any other matters relating to Intellectual Property rights of a Third Party in its discretion, using counsel of its choice. In connection with such Patent Litigation, Regulatory Litigation or such other matters, each Party shall cooperate with each other at its own expense.





6.9.2            In connection with any Patent Litigation and/or Regulatory Litigation, Par's legal counsel shall keep IntelGenx's legal counsel (retained at IntelGenx's option and expense) reasonably informed with respect to material events in the progress and settlement of such Proceedings and litigation. IntelGenx's counsel may provide input relating to the management of Patent Litigation and Regulatory Litigation, and Par shall consider the suggestions of lntelGenx' counsel in good faith and take such suggestions into account to the extent that, in the judgment of Par's in-house counsel, such suggestions do not adversely affect Par's position in any Intellectual Property and Regulatory Litigation.





6.9.3            IntelGenx's legal counsel shall be permitted to monitor the progress of the Intellectual Property and Regulatory Litigation, and Par shall keep IntelGenx informed of any intended settlement. IntelGenx shall fully cooperate with Par in connection therewith.





6.9.4            In the event of any patent litigation brought by a Third Party solely against IntelGenx for inducement to infringe or contributory infringement as a result of the obligations set forth in this Agreement, IntelGenx shall have the right to defend such litigation using legal counsel selected by Par, in its sole discretion ("Appointed Legal Counsel"), and at Par's cost and expense.





(a)          In the event of such litigation and selection by Par, each Party shall cooperate with each other in connection therewith, including entering into appropriate joint defense and/or joint privilege agreements.  In the event that Par makes a determination to join a party to such litigation, IntelGenx shall, at Par's written request, move to implead Par as a party thereto.





(b)          In connection therewith, IntelGenx shall ensure that the Appointed Legal Counsel shall keep Par informed with respect to the defense of such litigation (including access to all material documentation with regard thereto) and shall disclose to Par all material correspondence with the courts and adverse parties. If lntelGenx wishes to be represented with respect to such litigation by counsel of its own choosing (which counsel shall act in an advisory role only and shall not participate in the defense of such litigation), such representation shall be at IntelGenx's sole cost and expense.





(c)          Par shall, subject to Applicable Laws, make available its employees and relevant records in its possession or control, as applicable and to the extent reasonably necessary to assist in the defense of such litigation.





6.10             Settlement and Assertion of Rights. Par shall be entitled to settle or compromise any claim with respect to Patent Litigation or Regulatory Litigation, and to enter into any agreement in respect thereof, without the prior written consent of IntelGenx. IntelGenx shall not enter into any settlement agreement, other agreement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any Proceeding, threatened Proceeding, litigation or threatening litigation relating to a Product without the prior written consent of Par. Both Parties shall have the right to assert all Intellectual Property rights related to a Product against Third Parties, subject to mutual consultation. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any text to the contrary contained herein, with respect to matters relating to Intellectual Property rights of any Third Party other





17


than Patent Litigation or Regulatory Litigation, neither Party shall, without the consent of the other Party, enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to any judgment in respect of any claim and/or proceeding related to rights licensed to Par under this Agreement, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the other Party from all liability arising out of the claim, if any, and does not otherwise limit or impair the other Party's rights.





ARTICLE 7. CONFIDENTIALITY AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE





7.1               Treatment of Confidential Information. A Receiving Party shall retain in strict confidence, and not disclose, divulge or otherwise communicate to any other Person, any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, whether received prior to or after the Effective Date, and shall not use any such Confidential Information for any purpose, except pursuant to the terms of, and as required to carry out such Receiving Party's obligations, under this Agreement, except that each Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the officers, directors, employees, agents, accountants, attorneys, consultants, subcontractors or other representatives of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates (the "Representatives"), who, in each case, (a) need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of the implementation and performance by the Receiving Party of this Agreement, (b) will use the Confidential information only for such limited purposes, and (c) are bound by confidentiality obligations no less protective than those set forth in this Agreement.





7.1.1            A Receiving Party hereby shall use at least the same standard of care in complying with its confidentiality obligations hereunder as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of comparable sensitivity and to prevent and restrain the unauthorized disclosure of such Confidential Information by any of its Representatives, but no less than a reasonable standard of care. The Receiving Party shall be jointly and severally liable for any breach by any of its Representatives of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement.





7.1.2            Without limiting the generality of any of the foregoing, the Parties shall not make any disclosure of Confidential Information that would be reasonably likely to preclude the Disclosing Party from obtaining U.S. or foreign patents on any patentable invention or discovery described or otherwise embodied in such Party's Confidential Information.





7.1.3            The Confidential Information of each Party includes information from Third Parties subject to confidentiality restrictions and disclosed by one Party to the other Party.





7.2               Release from Restrictions.





7.2.1            A Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such Confidential Information disclosure is made in response to a valid order or subpoena of a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority of a country or any political subdivision thereof of competent jurisdiction or otherwise required by law, in the opinion of counsel to the Receiving Party; provided, however, that, to the extent practicable, the Receiving Party shall first provide written notice to the Disclosing Party reasonably in advance under the circumstances in order to give the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to quash such order or subpoena or to obtain a protective order requiring that the Confidential Information or documents that are the subject of such order be held in confidence by such court or Governmental Authority or, if disclosed, be used only for the purposes for which the order or subpoena was issued; and provided further that whether a disclosure order or subpoena is quashed or a protective order is obtained, the Confidential Information disclosed in


18


response to such court or Governmental Authority order or subpoena shall be limited to that information that, in the opinion of counsel to the Receiving Party, is legally required to be disclosed in such response to such court or governmental order or subpoena. Par may also disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is made to (i) a Governmental Authority as required in connection with any filing, application or request for Regulatory Approval with respect to a Product or under the reporting requirements of any securities exchange on which the securities of Par or its Affiliates are traded or (ii) a Third Party to which Par has a contractual obligation related to a Product, but only to the extent such information is required by such contractual obligation, provided that in each case (clauses (i) and (ii)) reasonable measures are taken to assure confidential treatment of such information.





7.2.2            A Receiving Party may disclose this Agreement to a Third Party in connection with or in conjunction with a proposed merger, consolidation, sale of assets that includes those related to this Agreement, a permitted assignment of this Agreement or loan financing, raising of capital, or sale of securities, provided that the disclosing Party obtains an agreement for confidential treatment thereof on terms no less protective than those contained herein.





7.3               No Implied Rights. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, nothing herein shall be construed as granting any Receiving Party any right, title, interest in or ownership of the Confidential Information, proprietary information or Intellectual Property of the Disclosing Party. For the avoidance of doubt, specific information disclosed as part of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be in the public domain or in the prior possession of the receiving Party merely because it is embraced by more general information in the public domain or by more general information in the prior possession of the receiving Party.





7.4               Survival of Confidentiality Obligations. The confidentiality obligations of the Parties contained in this Article 7 shall remain binding on both Parties during the Term and for a period of five (5) years after the expiration of the Term or the termination of this Agreement, regardless of the cause of such expiration or termination.





7.5               Use of Name and Disclosure of Term. No press release, public announcement, confirmation or other communication to the public or Third Parties regarding the existence or terms of this Agreement or related matters shall be made by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, including with respect to the form, content and timing of such press release, public announcement, confirmation or other communication to the public or Third Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any text to the contrary contained herein, those communications required by applicable law, regulation or securities exchange rule (including, but not limited to, a public offering prospectus), disclosures of information for which consent has previously been obtained, and information of a similar nature to that which has been previously disclosed publicly with respect to this Agreement, will not require advance approval, but will be provided to the other Party as soon as practicable after the release or communication thereof.





7.6               Third Party Information.





7.6.1            IntelGenx shall not (i) violate or misappropriate the trade secrets, know­ how, or confidential information, or knowingly violate or misappropriate any other proprietary rights, of any Third Party in developing a Product, and will not communicate any Third Party trade secrets to Par in connection with its rights and obligations under this Agreement without receiving permission from such Third Party and


19


informing Par of communication of such trade secrets or (ii) provide or disclose any documents or information to Par unless IntelGenx is the owner thereof, or otherwise has the full and legal right to do so.





7.6.2            Par shall not (i) violate or misappropriate the trade secrets, know-how, or confidential information, or knowingly violate or misappropriate any other proprietary rights, of any Third Party in connection with its rights and obligations under this Agreement, and will not communicate any Third Party trade secrets to IntelGenx in connection with its rights and obligations under this Agreement without receiving permission from such Third Party and informing IntelGenx of communication of such trade secrets or (ii) provide or disclose any documents or information to IntelGenx unless Par is the owner thereof, or otherwise has the full and legal right to do so.





7.7               Remedies. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that: (i) it will be too speculative to measure the damages that would be suffered by the other Party if such Party fails to comply with the obligations set forth in this Article 7 and that, in the event of any such failure, the other Party will be irreparably harmed and will not have an adequate remedy at law; (ii) the other Party shall, therefore, be entitled, in addition to any other rights and remedies, to obtain specific performance of such Party's obligations and to obtain immediate injunctive relief without having to post a bond; and (iii) such Party shall not assert, as a defense to any proceeding for such specific performance or injunctive relief, that the other Party will not be irreparably harmed or that the other Party has an adequate remedy at law.

ARTICLE 9. INDEMNIFICATION





9.1           Indemnification by IntelGenx. Subject to Section 9.3, IntelGenx shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless each of Par and its Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers and employees (each, a "Par Indemnitee") from and against any and all liabilities, damages, settlements, penalties, fines, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses of litigation) (collectively, "Liabilities") arising, directly or indirectly, out of or in connection with Third Party claims, suits, actions, demands or judgments to the extent relating to or arising out of (i) any breach or alleged breach by IntelGenx of any representation, warranty, undertaking or covenant under this Agreement or (ii) any alleged negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct by IntelGenx or its Affiliates, past or present employees or agents; except, in each case, for those Liabilities for which Par has an obligation to indemnify the IntelGenx Indemnitees pursuant to Section 9.2, as to which Liabilities each Party shall indemnify the other Party to the extent of its respective liability for such Liabilities.


21





9.2           Indemnification by Par.  Subject to Section 9.3 and 11.4.4, Par shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless each of IntelGenx and its Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers and employees (each, an "lntelGenx Indemnitee") from and against any and all Liabilities arising, directly or indirectly, out of or in connection with Third Party claims, suits, actions, demands or judgments to the extent relating to or arising out of (i) any breach or alleged breach by Par of any representation, warranty, undertaking or covenant under this Agreement, (ii) any alleged negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct by Par or its Affiliates, past or present employees or agents, and (iii) Patent Litigation or Regulatory Litigation; except, in each case, for those Liabilities for which IntelGenx has an obligation to indemnify the Par Indemnitees pursuant to Section 9.1, as to which Liabilities each Party shall indemnify the other Party to the extent of its respective liability for such Liabilities.





9.3           Notice and Procedures. If an IntelGenx Indemnitee or a Par Indemnitee (the "Indemnitee") intends to claim indemnification under this Article 9, it shall promptly notify the other Party (the "Indemnitor") in writing of any such alleged Liabilities. In the event that the Indemnitor does not assume and pursue in a timely and diligent manner the defense of any Third Party claim (but in no event later than thirty (30) days, or such shorter period as required under Applicable Laws), then the Indemnitor shall be deemed to have ceded control of such claim and the Indemnitee shall be entitled to appoint counsel of its own choice for such defense, at the cost and expense of the Indemnitor. The Indemnitor shall have the right to control the defense thereof with counsel of its choice, provided that such counsel is reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee; and provided further that any Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense, for any reason, including if representation of any Indemnitee by the counsel retained by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnitee and any other Party reasonably represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnitee, its employees and agents, shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any Liabilities covered by this Article 9. The obligations of this Section 9.3 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnitor (unless the Indemnitor is deemed to have ceded control of the applicable Third Party claim under this Section 9.3). The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve the Indemnitor of any obligation to the Indemnitee under this Article 9 to the extent that the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by such delay. It is understood that only IntelGenx or Par may claim indemnity under this Article 9 (on its own behalf or on behalf of its Indemnitees), and other Persons may not directly claim indemnity hereunder.





9.4           Other Product Liability Claims. To the extent either Party incurs any Liabilities arising from or in connection with any product liability claim with respect to a Product to the extent arising from the actions not subject to the indemnity obligations set forth in Sections 9.1 or 9.2 (a "Product Claim"), each Party shall be liable for such portion of the Liabilities in accordance with such Party's allocation of the Net Profits pursuant to Section 5.5.1; provided, however, that such Liabilities shall be shared initially by offsetting against the portion of Net Profits otherwise payable or retained pursuant to Section 5.5.1 and in the event of any shortfall thereafter, each Party's share thereof shall be paid in accordance with such allocation. Par shall have sole control in addressing, defending, managing and conducting any negotiations, litigation, threatened litigation or settlement regarding such Product Claim, using counsel of its choice. In the event that Par does not respond to any Product Claim against IntelGenx within (a) sixty (60) days following the notice of such claim or (b) ten (10) days before the time limit, if any, set forth in the appropriate laws and regulations for the filing of a response to such Product Claim,






22


whichever comes first, IntelGenx shall have the right to control any such Product Claim, using counsel of its own choice. In the event of a Product Claim, IntelGenx shall cooperate fully with Par, including, if a party in such Product Claim, the furnishing of a power of attorney to defend IntelGenx in such litigation in IntelGenx name and/or being named as a party for the purposes of any cross claim or counterclaim, and Par shall keep IntelGenx and/or IntelGenx designated legal counsel reasonably informed as to the progress of such action. Neither Party shall enter into any settlement of a Product Claim, without the prior written consent of the other, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.





9.5           Exclusive Remedy. The rights of the Par Indemnitees and the IntelGenx Indemnitees under this Article 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Par Indemnitees and the IntelGenx Indemnitees, as the case may be, with respect to matters covered hereunder.





ARTICLE 10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Article 11, the term of this Agreement in respect a Product or AG Product, as applicable, shall continue in force from the Effective Date until the latter of (a) the end of the commercial life of such Product or AG Product or (b) the date that is ten (10) years following the earlier of Commercial Launch of such Product and the first commercial sale of such AG Product by Par, its Affiliate or a permitted sublicensee (the "Term").





11.2           Termination for Breach. Either Party may terminate this Agreement, or suspend performance under this Agreement upon written notice to the other Party at any time during the Term of this Agreement, if the other Party is in material breach of this Agreement and such other Party has not cured such material breach within forty-five (45) days after notice requesting cure of the breach; provided, however, that if the pertinent breach is not capable of cure within forty­ five (45) days, but is capable of cure, and the breaching Party has promptly commenced, and is and continues diligently pursuing in good faith the remedy of any such breach, then such cure period shall be extended for such period as may be reasonably required to effectuate such cure; provided further, however, that if such breach is not capable of cure, the non-breaching Party may terminate this Agreement, or suspend performance under this Agreement immediately by delivery of written notice thereof to such breaching Party.





11.3           Termination by Par.





11.3.1 Par may terminate this Agreement in respect of a Product upon delivery of written notice to IntelGenx if:





(a)             the [***] for such Product is deemed unsuccessful in accordance with Section 2.4.3, and IntelGenx conducts an additional [***] for such Product Study that is also unsuccessful (as determined in accordance with Section 2.4.3).


23





(b)             the Pivotal Bioequivalence Study for such Product fails to demonstrate that such Product is bioequivalent to the applicable Brand Product and (i) Par does not elect to conduct an additional Pivotal Bioequivalence Study for such Product pursuant to Section 2.4.4 within sixty (60) days after such failure or (ii) after such election, such additional Pivotal Bioequivalence Study for such Product fails again to demonstrate that such Product is bioequivalent to the applicable Brand Product;





(c)             Par is not the sole First Applicant with respect to the Product ANDA for such Product;




(d)             at any time after the conclusion of Patent Litigation for such Product, such Product has become economically unviable; or





(e)             following Commercial Launch of such Product, total Net Profits of such Product reach a level that is equal to or less than fifteen percent (15%) of Par's (and its Affiliates') Net Sales of such Products and such conditions persist for a period of two (2) or more consecutive Calendar Quarters;





and, in each case, Par is not, at the time, pursuing the commercial sale of an AG Product in respect of such Product.





11.4           Effect of Expiration or Termination. Expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement for any reason shall be without prejudice to:





11.4.1 IntelGenx's right to receive all payments due and payable from Par as of the effective date of such termination, if any, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;





11.4.2 Par's right to sell, at its option, the Product remaining in its inventory at the time of termination (in which event, Net Profits on such sales shall continue to be shared as set forth above in Section 5.5); and
