	5	Licence Grant 

  

	5.1	 Jagotec hereby grants to Nitec the royalty bearing exclusive and sub-licensable right and licence to market, distribute, sell, offer for sale and use
the Product in the Territory and to use the Patents, GEOMATRIX® Technology and Skye Know How exclusively for
that purpose. 


  

	5.2	 Furthermore, subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, Jagotec hereby grants to Nitec the option (the “Option”) to acquire the exclusive
and sublicenseable right and licence (hereinafter referred to as the “Nitec Manufacturing Licence “) to make or have made Product in the Territory and to use the Patents, GEOMATRIX® Technology and Skye Know How exclusively for that purpose at any time on twenty four month notice to expire no earlier than five years after the First Launch of the
Product in the Territory. The Option may be exercised in accordance with Section 6.2 below. For the avoidance of doubt, no royalty in addition to that set out in Section 7 shall be payable by Nitec to Jagotec in respect of the Nitec
Manufacturing Licence. The Nitec Manufacturing Licence shall be co-terminus with the licence granted under Section 5.1. 


  

	5.3	Subject to the provisions of Section 5.5, the rights of Nitec to grant any sub-license under the Licence and/or the Nitec Manufacturing Licence, as the case may
be, in any part of the Territory shall not require Nitec to receive the written approval of Jagotec. 

  

	5.4	 In any event, Nitec shall be responsible for any and all acts, deeds and undertakings of its sub-licensee(s) and shall continue to be bound by all
terms and provisions under this Agreement throughout its term. In case that Nitec sub-

licenses rights and/or the Licence and/or the Nitec Manufacturing Licence, as the case may be, to any sub-licensee(s), such sub-licensee(s) shall agree in writing to any and all of Nitec’s
obligations and undertakings under this Agreement, including but not limited to its confidentiality obligations set out below. Furthermore, Nitec undertakes that any and all sub-licence agreements shall provide for inspection and audit provisions
identical to the provisions set forth below in order to enable Jagotec to control and audit and receive any and all Royalties due as provided in this Agreement. Nitec shall provide Jagotec promptly with appropriate information on its sub-licensee(s)
and, subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions, copies of all agreements with such sub-licensee(s). 


  

	6	Manufacturing and Product Liability 

  

	6.1	 Subject to the exercise by Nitec of its rights under Section 6.2, Jagotec shall exclusively manufacture, package and supply, or have manufactured,
packaged and supplied by an Affiliate, Product in bulk in accordance with the terms and conditions to be agreed upon in the Jagotec Manufacturing Agreement, which Jagotec Manufacturing Agreement shall contain provisions (i) that Nitec shall
supply to Jagotec or its Affiliate free of charge all Active Drug in quantities required for such manufacturing of Product, and (ii) on manufacture and packaging of Product in bulk and reimbursement of cost at [...***...] of
Jago’s fully allocated manufacturing cost therefore (calculated in substantially the same manner as Jago’s other manufactured products of similar production process, run and complexity) as required by the Parties. If Jagotec wants to have
the product manufactured, packed and supplied by an affiliate other than SkyePharma SAS, the costs of the manufacturing site change to such an affiliate (including but not limited to technical transfer, process validation, bioequivalence study and
regulatory expenses) shall be borne by Skye. Furthermore, the Jagotec Manufacturing Agreement shall contain provisions on lead times, order quantity and supply and purchase obligations of such quantities ordered (or part thereof), as may be mutually
agreed upon by the Parties and in the event of a failure by the Parties to agree by 31 March, 2005, each Party shall submit the matter to be resolved by an expert, to be appointed by

a single arbitrator appointed under ICC Rules. With the exception of the principles applied in calculating the fully allocated manufacturing cost referred to above, in relation to any particular
proposed clause of the Jagotec Manufacturing Agreement on which the Parties are unable to agree, each Party shall propose terms, only one of which, subject to such amendments specified by the expert as shall be required to ensure that the Jagotec
Manufacturing Agreement operates as a whole, shall be selected by the expert as the relevant clause of the Jagotec Manufacturing Agreement binding on the Parties. In the case of the principles applied in calculating the fully allocated manufacturing
cost referred to above, the expert shall not be bound only to select terms proposed by one Party or the other as described above but shall be free to make such amendments to proposed terms as the expert shall think fit. 



 

	6.2	In the event that Nitec wishes to manufacture the Product under the Nitec Manufacturing Licence rather then having Jagotec manufacture the Product under the Jagotec
Manufacturing Agreement, then Nitec shall exercise its Option under Section 5.2 above by serving notice on Jagotec to that effect in writing. Subject to the proviso to this sentence, the right of Nitec under Section 5.2 shall not take
effect for a period of [...***...] from the date of notice and during such period, (i) all pending orders for Product shall be satisfied by Jagotec in accordance with the Jagotec Manufacturing Agreement, and (ii) the Parties will
agree the terms of the royalty free Manufacturing Licence to include such provisions as are customary in the circumstances, failing which either Party may refer the matter to an expert for determination. Jagotec agrees that it shall provide
technical assistance in connection with such transfer to a third party manufacturer as set out in Section 3.4. The costs of the manufacturing site change (including but not limited to technical transfer, process validation, bioequivalence study
and regulatory expenses) shall be born by Nitec. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, following exercise of the Option, the Manufacturing License shall be an irrevocable worldwide, fully paid-up, royalty-free license, pursuant
to which Nitec and its licensees shall have a right of sublicense. 

  

	6.3	 Nitec shall indemnify, defend and hold Jagotec and its Affiliates, directors, officers and shareholders harmless from and against any losses, claims,
liabilities,

 EXECUTION COPY 

 


	 	 
costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) that may be imposed upon or asserted against Jagotec and/or its Affiliates, directors, officers and shareholders as a result of the
manufacture of Product under the Manufacturing License, or the marketing, distribution, use or sale of Product under the License by or on behalf of Nitec, its Affiliates, agents or sub-licensee(s), except for those claims, liabilities, costs and
expenses arising from negligence or intentional misconduct on the part of Jagotec or its Affiliates and except for claims to the extent any relate to the Patents, GEOMATRIX® Technology and Skye Know How. 


  

	6.4	In the event that Jagotec wishes to cease to manufacture the Product under the Jagotec Manufacturing Agreement, Jagotec shall be permitted to do so by serving notice on
Nitec to that effect in writing. The termination under this Section 6.4 shall not take effect for a period of twenty four (24) months from the date of notice and in any event no earlier than five years after the First Launch of the Product in
the Territory and during such period all pending orders for Product shall be satisfied by Jagotec in accordance with the Jagotec Manufacturing Agreement. Jagotec agrees that it shall provide technical assistance in connection with transfer of
manufacturing rights to a third party manufacturer as set out in Section 3.4. The costs of the manufacturing site change (including but not limited to technical transfer, process validation, bioequivalence study and regulatory expenses) shall
be born by Nitec. 

  

	7	Royalties 

  

	7.1	In consideration of the License granted by Jagotec to Nitec hereunder, the royalty (the “Royalty”) payable by Nitec to Jagotec shall be:


  

	 	7.1.1	in the case of all countries of the Territory (other than North America): 

  


	 	(a)	[...***...] of Net Sales of Product in the Territory (other than North America), and 


 

	 	(b)	[...***...] of sublicensing income in the Territory (other than North America) being any payment not calculated based on Net Sales (to include, without
limitation, licence fees, lump sums and milestone payments.).

	 	7.1.2	in the case of North America: 

  

	 	(a)	[...***...] of Net Sales of Product in North America, and 

  

	 	(b)	[...***...] of sublicensing income in North America being any payment not calculated based on Net Sales (to include, without limitation, licence fees, lump sums
and milestone payments.). 

  

	7.2	All Royalties shall be payable on a quarterly basis. Nitec shall remit to Jagotec within [...***...] days after the end of each calendar quarter the amount of
Royalties, if any, due in respect of the preceding quarter, beginning with the calendar quarter in which the First Launch takes place. Nitec shall deliver to Jagotec, along with such remittance of Royalty payments a detailed statement (hereinafter
referred to as the “Royalty Report’) of Net Sales of Product and sublicensing income received on a country-by-country basis to which the Royalty payment relates. 


 

	7.3	All Royalty Reports shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied from applicable period to period and shall be
certified by an officer of Nitec as being so prepared, true, accurate and correct. 

  

	7.4	Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, all payments of Royalties shall be made in EURO and to such place or account as Jagotec reasonably requests from time
to time in writing. Any conversions into EURO from the currency in which the corresponding Net Sales for such Royalties and sublicensing income were made, are to be calculated by using the average closing buying rate for such currency quoted in the
continental terms method of quoting exchange rates (local currency per EURO 1) published by the Financial Times on the last business day of the applicable reporting period covered by such Royalty Report. 


 

	7.5	 In the event that Nitec is required to withhold any tax to the tax or revenue authorities in the Territory regarding any payment to Jagotec, such
amount shall be deducted from the payment to be made by Nitec, and Nitec shall promptly notify Jagotec of such withholding and, within a reasonable amount of time after making such deduction, furnish Jagotec with copies of any tax certificate or
other documentation evidencing such withholding. Each Party agrees to cooperate

with the other Party in claiming exemptions from such deductions or withholdings under any agreement or treaty from time to time in effect. 



 

	8	Inspection and Audit 

  

	8.1	During the term of this Agreement and during a period of twelve (12) months after its expiration or termination for any reason, upon the written request of Jagotec
and not more than once each calendar year, Nitec shall permit an independent certified public accountant of internationally recognized standing selected by Jagotec, to have access during regular business hours to such of the records of Nitec and its
Affiliates and sub-licensee(s), if any, as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the Royalty Reports for any year ending not more than twenty-four (24) months prior to the date of such request. The accounting firm shall disclose
to Jagotec only whether the Royalty Reports and records of Nitec and its Affiliates and sub-licensee(s), if any, and the amount of Royalties, if any, actually paid are correct or not and the specific details concerning any discrepancies; no other
information shall be shared. The Parties agree to accept such written audit report as final and binding upon them. 

  

	8.2	If such independent accounting firm correctly concludes that additional Royalties were owed during any such period audited, Nitec shall pay such additional Royalties
within thirty (30) days of the date Jagotec delivers to Nitec such accounting firm’s written report so concluding. The fees and expenses charged by such accounting firm with respect to such audit shall be paid by Jagotec, provided however,
if any such audit discloses that Royalties payable by Nitec for the audited period are more than [...***...] of the Royalties actually paid for such period, then Nitec shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses charged by such
accounting firm with respect to such audit. 

  

	8.3	Jagotec shall treat all financial information subject to review under this Section 7 as confidential and subject to the confidentiality obligations in Article 8
below.

need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement and has previously signed a written confidentiality agreement or has otherwise agreed to such confidentiality obligation with the receiving Party which contains substantially
the same obligations of confidentiality and non-use as set forth in this Section 8, and which is broad enough to cover disclosures of Confidential Information from the originally disclosing Party.

countries, USA, UK and Germany, with [...***...] prior notice, provided that such terminating Party, prior to having the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance herewith, has in all detail disclosed such determination and the
underlying reasons to the other Party and has taken in due consideration any comments of the other Party on such determination; and 

  

	(b)	by Nitec, if the first application for Registration of Product or any material part thereof is finally rejected or denied, or if any Regulatory Authority in the
country, where the first Registration of Product is applied for, imposes restrictions on or conditions for the commercialization of the Product which have a material negative impact on the marketability of the Product, or if all Registrations of
Product in all countries are withdrawn or cancelled by the competent Regulatory Authorities, with [...***...] prior written notice.
