that complies with Sections 11.8 or 11.10. 
 4.3 Most Favored Customer. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, if any term or condition set forth in this Agreement is less favorable to Athenex than an analogous term or condition offered by Avalon to any of its other customers of goods (an “Alternative Term”), such

business hours, to such of the records of Avalon as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the Prices for any year ending not more than twenty four (24) months prior to the date of such request. The accounting firm shall disclose

conclusion, then Avalon shall pay the amount overpaid by Athenex to Athenex, together with interest at the Prime Rate on the amount of such additional payments, within thirty (30) days of
the date Athenex delivers the Audit Report to Avalon. In the event that Avalon disagrees with the accounting firm’s conclusion, Avalon shall not have the obligation to make any additional payments to Athenex until there is a mutual agreement of
the Parties regarding the amount owed by Avalon. For the avoidance of doubt, Avalon is not obligated to pay any interest for the period during which the Parties were in dispute of the accounting firm’s conclusion and amount owed thereunder. The
fees charged by such accounting firm shall be paid by Athenex, provided, however, that if the report shows that Athenex overpaid Avalon by more than five percent (5%) of the payments due hereunder for the period being reviewed is discovered,

Arrangements. The Parties understand that the covenants related to the supply of Goods set forth in this Agreement are based on the parties current understanding of the likely commercialization of the Goods and Licensed Services. Therefore,

Study or any Development under the Agreement or who receive materials relating to a Licensed Service or Know-How from a Party, to assign or grant a sublicensable exclusive license on a fully paid-up, royalty-free basis to all inventions and corresponding Patent Rights that are developed, made or conceived by such Third Parties during the Agreement Term to Avalon and/or Athenex according to the ownership

prosecution, application or other proceedings and to furnish Athenex, per its request, with copies of office actions received by Avalon from any Regulatory Authority within the Territory concerning Avalon Patent Rights. Athenex may request that
Avalon make additional patent application filings within the Territory for the Avalon Intellectual Property. If Avalon elects not to make such filings within a period of thirty (30) days from the date of such request, Athenex shall have the

 (b) Athenex Patent Rights. Athenex shall have the sole right to file,
prosecute and maintain the Athenex Patent Rights in Athenex’s name, by retaining patent counsel selected by Athenex and shall be responsible for the payment of all costs and fees relating to patent prosecution and maintenance. Athenex agrees to

related thereto. Each Party shall execute all documents and take all actions as are reasonably requested by the other Party with respect to any filings and registrations. 

7.3 Third Party Intellectual Property. 

(a) In the event that a Party becomes aware of any claim that the practice by either Party of
Know-How or Patent Rights or manufacture, import, use or sale of any Good or Licensed Service hereunder infringes the intellectual property rights of any Third Party in the Territory, such Party shall promptly

appropriate course of action in the Territory, Avalon shall have the obligation to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Athenex in connection with any action in the Territory related to the intellectual property rights of any Third Party or to
initiate and prosecute legal action in the Territory related to the intellectual property rights of any Third Party in the name of Avalon and/or Athenex. Avalon shall keep Athenex reasonably informed as to the progress of any such action. Athenex
shall render, all assistance reasonably requested in connection with any action taken by Avalon. However, the control of such action, including whether to initiate any legal proceeding and/or the settlement thereof, shall solely be under the control
of Avalon; provided that Avalon shall not settle any such claim or proceeding in a manner that materially adversely affects Athenex’s rights under this Agreement or which results in any monetary payment by or financial loss to Athenex,
without Athenex’s written consent. Athenex shall pay for all costs and expenses incurred by Avalon in such defense. In addition, Avalon shall pay all damages awarded or settlement payments made (including future royalty or similar payments) to
such Third Party. 
 7.4 Patent Term Extensions. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in obtaining patent term
extensions or restorations or supplemental protection certificates or their equivalents in any country in the Territory where applicable and where desired by Athenex. Elections with respect to obtaining such extension or supplemental protection

disclosed unless there have been material developments relating to any Licensed Service since the date of the previous disclosure; provided, further, that each Party shall provide to the other Party reasonable advance notice of any such
subsequent disclosure. Without limiting the generality of any of the foregoing, it is understood that the Parties or their Affiliates may make disclosure of this Agreement and the terms hereof in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC,

Either Party may, without prejudice to any other remedies available to it under this Agreement or at law or in equity,
terminate this Agreement prior to expiration of the Agreement Term in the event that any of the following occurs:

set forth in this Agreement), and has not cured such breach within (i) thirty (30) days after notice of such breach is provided to the Breaching Party in case the breach is a non-payment of any amount due
under this Agreement that is not being disputed in good faith (which shall be deemed a material breach of a material obligation) or (ii) sixty (60) days after notice of such breach is provided to the Breaching Party for other cases of breach
(or, if such default cannot be cured within such sixty (60) day period, if the Breaching Party does not commence and diligently continue actions to cure such default during such sixty (60) day period). The termination shall become
effective at the end of the (i) thirty (30) day period in case the breach is a non-payment of any amount due under this Agreement that is not being disputed in good faith if the Breaching Party has not
cured such breach by such date, or (ii) for other cases of breach, sixty (60) day period unless (a) the Breaching Party cures such breach during such sixty (60) day period, or (b) if such breach is not susceptible to cure

not be terminated unless the Breaching Party fails to use its best commercially reasonable efforts to prevent a similar subsequent breach). The right of either Avalon or Athenex to terminate this
Agreement as provided in this Section 9.2(c)(i) shall not be affected in any way by such Party’s waiver or failure to take action with respect to any previous breach or default.

possession of the whole or a major part of its assets or major undertaking.

Articles 4, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and shall continue in effect after the date of expiration or termination for the longer of (i) five (5) years or (ii) the respective periods

Indemnified Parties from and against all suits, claims, actions, demands, complaints, lawsuits or other proceedings, (collectively, “Claims”), that are brought by a Third Party, and shall indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest
extent permitted by law the Avalon Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses, that arise out of or are attributable to, (i) Athenex’s negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct in exercising or performing any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement; or (ii) a material breach by Athenex of any of its obligations, representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement; provided, however, that Athenex shall not be obligated under this
Section 10.2, to the extent it is shown by evidence acceptable in a court of law having jurisdiction over the subject matter and meeting the appropriate degree of proof for such Claim that the Claim arose out of the negligence or wrongdoing on
the part of Avalon. 
 10.3 Avalon Indemnification. Avalon shall defend the Athenex Indemnified Parties from and
against all Claims, in each case that are brought by a Third Party, and shall indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law the Athenex Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses that arise out of such Claims that
are attributable to, (i) Avalon’s negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct in exercising or performing any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; (ii) a material breach by Avalon of any of its obligations,

the Goods; provided, however, that Avalon shall not be obligated under this Section 10.3, to the extent it is shown by evidence acceptable in a court of law having jurisdiction over
the subject matter and meeting the appropriate degree of proof for such Claim that the Claim arose out of the negligence or wrongdoing on the part of Athenex. 

10.4 Indemnification Procedure. 

(a) Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any Claim. Concurrent with the provision of notice pursuant
to this Section 10.4(a), the Indemnified Party shall provide to the other Party copies of any complaint, summons, subpoena or other court filings or correspondence related to such Claim and will give such other information with respect thereto
as the other Party shall reasonably request. The Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall meet to discuss how to respond to such Claim. Failure to provide prompt notice shall not relieve any Party of the duty to defend or indemnify unless such
failure materially prejudices the defense of any matter. Each Party agrees that it will take reasonable steps to minimize the burdens of the litigation on witnesses and on the ongoing business of the Indemnified Parties including making reasonable
accommodations to witnesses’ schedules when possible and seeking appropriate protective orders limiting the duration and/or location of depositions. 

(b) Should either Party dispute that any Claim or portion of a Claim (“Disputed Claim”) of which it receives
notice pursuant to Section 10.4(a), is an indemnified Claim, it shall so notify the other Party providing written notice in sufficient time to permit such other Party to retain counsel and timely appear, answer and/or move in any such action.
In such event, such other Party shall defend against such Claim; provided, however, that such other Party shall not settle any Claim which it contends is 

  
 47 









 FOIA CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

Triple asterisks denote omissions 
  

 
an indemnified Claim without providing the Indemnifying Party ten (10) Business Days’ notice prior to any such settlement and an opportunity to assume the defense and indemnification of
such Claim pursuant to this Agreement. If it is determined that a Disputed Claim is subject to indemnification, the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, of the Indemnified Party. 

(c) Settlement of Indemnified Claims. The Indemnifying Party under Sections 10.2 or 10.3, as applicable, shall have the
sole authority to settle any Indemnified Claim without the consent of the other Party; provided, however, that an Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the other Party, as part of any settlement or compromise
(i) admit to liability on the part of the other Party; (ii) agree to an injunction against the other Party; or (iii) settle any matter in a manner that separately apportions fault to the other Party. The Parties further agree that as
part of the settlement of any Indemnified Claim, an Indemnifying Party shall obtain a full, complete and unconditional release from the claimant on behalf of the Indemnified Parties. 

10.5 Insurance. 

(a) Athenex shall maintain in the Territory, commencing as of the Effective Date, commercial general liability insurance
(including coverage for product liability, contractual liability, bodily injury, property damage and personal injury), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Avalon and in accordance with reasonable industry standards, with minimum limits
of $5,000,000 per occurrence or, in case of Clinical Studies, $5,000,000 per occurrence during the period when such Clinical Studies are being conducted (the “Insurance”). If such Insurance is written on a claims-made form, it shall
continue for three (3) years following termination of this Agreement. The Insurance shall have retroactive date to or coinciding with the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Athenex may satisfy the foregoing obligation with respect
to the Insurance through self-insurance.

Insurance and/or the Agreement without reasonable prior written notice that shall be sent by registered mail to Avalon. Upon request Athenex shall provide certificates of insurance to Avalon evidencing the coverage specified herein. 

(c) Except as expressly stated herein, a Party’s liability to the other is in no way limited to the extent of the
Party’s insurance coverage. 
 (d) The Insurance shall contain an explicit clause, stating that each Party and its
insurer waive their rights of subrogation against the other Party and its directors, employees and/or any one on its behalf with respect to the Insurance. Such waiver shall not apply in the event of a malicious act. 

(e) The Insurance shall be primary to any other insurance maintained by each Party and each Party hereby waives any claim or
demand as to participation in any such other insurance.
