			Straddle Periods    All property and ad valorem taxes and assessments on the Acquired  Assets for any taxable period that begins on or before and ends after the Effective Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be prorated between the Debiopharm and ImmunoGen, as of the close of business on the Effective Date based on the best information then available, with (a) ImmunoGen being liable for such Taxes attributable to any portion of a Straddle Period ending prior to the Effective Date and such Taxes shall be allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period and (b) Debiopharm being liable for such Taxes attributable to any portion of a Straddle Period beginning on or after the Effective Date.  Information available after the Effective Date that alters the amount of property taxes due with respect to the Straddle Period will be taken into account and any change in the amount of such taxes shall be prorated between Debiopharm and ImmunoGen.  All prorations under this Section 7.10 shall be allocated so that items relating to the portion of a Straddle Period ending on or prior to the Effective Date shall be allocated to ImmunoGen based upon the number of days in the Straddle Period on or prior to the Effective Date and items related to the portion of a Straddle Period beginning after the Effective Date shall be allocated to Debiopharm based upon the number of days in the Straddle Period after the Effective Date.  The amount of all such prorations shall, if able to be calculated on or prior to the Effective Date, be paid on the Effective Date or, if not able to be calculated on or prior to the Effective Date, be calculated and paid as soon as practicable thereafter.

				 8.4
			Indemnification Claims and Dispute Resolution.  




			
	
			
				 (a)
			Third Party Actions. A Person seeking indemnification under Article 8 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notification to the Party from which recovery is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the commencement of any Third Party Action. Such notification shall be given within twenty (20) days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such Third Party Action, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Action and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure. Within twenty (20) days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that (i) the Indemnifying Party may only assume control of such defense if (A) it acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party that any damages, fines, costs or other liabilities that may be assessed against the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Action constitute Damages for which the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified pursuant to this ARTICLE 8 and (B) the ad damnum is less than or equal to the amount of Damages for which the Indemnifying Party is liable under this ARTICLE 8 and (ii) the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of Third Party Action involving criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the  Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not permitted under the terms hereof to, so assume control of the defense of a Third Party Action, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. The non-controlling Party may participate in such defense at its own expense. The controlling Party shall keep the non-controlling Party advised of the status of such Third Party Action and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The non-controlling Party shall furnish the controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such Third Party Action (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the controlling Party in the defense of such Third Party Action. The reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party with respect to a Third Party Action shall be considered Damages for purposes of this Agreement if the Indemnified Party controls the defense of such Third Party Action pursuant to the terms hereof. The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that the consent of the Indemnified Party shall not be required if the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a complete release of the Indemnified Party from further liability and has no other adverse effect on the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.




			
	
			
				 (b)
			Other Claims.




			
	
			
				 (a)
			In order to seek indemnification under this ARTICLE 8 other than in connection with a Third Party Action, an Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party. Within twenty (20) days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a response, in which the Indemnifying Party shall: (A) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the claimed amount (in which case the response shall be accompanied by a

	payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the claimed amount, by check or by wire transfer), (B) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive part, but not all, of the claimed amount, or (C) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the claimed amount. 




			
	
			
				 (b)
			During the thirty (30)-day period following the delivery of the response that reflects a Dispute, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use good faith efforts to resolve the Dispute. If the Dispute is not resolved within such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall resolve the Dispute in accordance with Section 9.16.




			
	
			
				 8.5
			Limitations.    




			
	
			
				 (a)
			Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, except as otherwise set forth in Section 8.5(b), (i) the aggregate liability of a  Party for Damages (excluding Damages resulting from Third Party Actions indemnifiable under this Agreement) under Section ‎8.2(a) or Section ‎8.2(b) shall not exceed [***] of the Aggregate Consideration actually paid to ImmunoGen, and (ii) except for payments due under ARTICLE IV, a Party shall not be liable under this ARTICLE 8 unless and until the aggregate Damages (excluding Damages incurred resulting from Third Party Actions indemnifiable under this Agreement) for which it would otherwise be liable under this ARTICLE 8 exceeds [***] (at which point such Party shall become liable for the [***] under this ARTICLE 8).  




			
	
			
				 (b)
			Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, except for Damages resulting from Third Party Actions indemnifiable under this Agreement, the aggregate liability of a Party for Damages under this ARTICLE 8 for breach of any representation or warranty by such Party contained in Sections [***] shall not exceed [***] of the Aggregate Consideration actually paid to ImmunoGen.




			
	
			
				 (c)
			Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, ImmunoGen shall have no liability for Damages arising from a breach of [***], if such breach is the result of the fact that an ImmunoGen agent or a Person involved in the manufacture or development of IMGN529 other than an officer or employee,  [***], and ImmunoGen did not [***]. 




			
	
			
				 (d)
			EXCEPT FOR EITHER PARTY’S BREACH OF SECTION 7.4 OR IMMUNOGEN’S BREACH OF SECTION ‎7.5, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT UNDER ANY CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR (i) ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR LOSS OF GOODWILL), OR (ii) COSTS OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS, TECHNOLOGY OR SERVICES, EVEN IF EITHER PARTY IS INFORMED IN ADVANCE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF THE REMEDIES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.  NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT UNDER ANY CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES.    For purposes of clarity, an Indemnified Party’s monetary liability under a Third Party Action for such Third Party’s special, incidental, indirect or consequential damages, or for any exemplary or punitive damages payable to such Third Party in connection with such Third Party Claim, shall be deemed to be the direct damages of such Indemnified Party for purposes of this ARTICLE 8.  No breach by ImmunoGen hereunder shall permit Debiopharm the right to rescind this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

				 (e)
			No limitation or condition of liability provided in this Section 8.5 shall apply to any Damages resulting from fraud.




			
	
			
				 (f)
			Each Party shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) [***] to take such actions, and pursue such legal rights and remedies available, in order to mitigate Damages (or potential Damages) for which indemnification is provided to it under this Agreement.  




			
	
			
				 8.6
			Right to Set-Off.  Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to Debiopharm, Debiopharm may set-off the amount of any Damages for which indemnification has been finally determined or agreed pursuant to Section 8.4 against any Contingent Payments or other amounts payable by Debiopharm under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements.  If any Contingent Payment becomes due and is not yet paid and Debiopharm submits a Claim Notice or there exists a Third Party Action pursuant to which Debiopharm is entitled to indemnification under Section 8.2, Debiopharm may pay such Contingent Payment, up to the amount of the Damages claimed in the Claim Notice or Third Party Action, into an escrow account pursuant to an escrow agreement reasonably acceptable to the Parties pending resolution of such Claim or Third Party Action. 




			
	
			
				 8.7
			[***] Remedy.  Except as provided in [***], the rights of the Indemnified Parties under this ‎ARTICLE 8 shall be [***] of the Parties with respect to claims resulting from or relating to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements.

			No Strict Construction. This Agreement has been prepared jointly and will not be strictly construed against either Party.




			
	
			
				 9.5
			Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party,  except that a  Party may make such an assignment or transfer without the other Party’s consent (a) to the assigning Party’s Affiliates or (b) to the successor to all or substantially all of the business or assets of such Party (or with respect to Debiopharm only, all or substantially all of the business or assets to which this Agreement relates), whether by merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or other transaction. Any permitted successor or assignee of rights or obligations under this Agreement will, in a writing to the other  Party, expressly assume performance of such rights or obligations, but the assigning Party will remain primarily liable and responsible for the performance of all of its obligations under this Agreement and for causing its assignees to act in a manner consistent with this Agreement. Any permitted assignment will be binding on the successors of the assigning Party.

				 9.7
			Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments, and to do all such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.




			
	
			
				 9.8
			Severability. Each provision in this Agreement is independent and severable from the others, and no provision will be rendered unenforceable because any other provision may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part. If the scope of any restrictive provision in this Agreement is too broad to permit enforcement to its full extent, then such restriction will be reformed to the maximum extent permitted by law.




			
	
			
				 9.9
			Headings. The headings for each Article and Section in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to limit or expand on the meaning of the language contained in the particular Article or Section.




			
	
			
				 9.10
			No Waiver. Any delay in enforcing a Party’s rights under this Agreement, or any waiver as to a particular default or other matter, will not constitute a waiver of such Party’s rights to the future enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, except with respect to an express written and signed waiver relating to a particular matter for a particular period of time.




			
	
			
				 9.11
			Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one (1) and the same instrument. For purposes of executing this Agreement, a facsimile copy of this Agreement, or .pdf copy, including the signature pages, will be deemed an original.




			
	
			
				 9.12
			Public Announcements.  Either Party may make any public disclosure relating to the subject matter of this Agreement that it believes in good faith is required by applicable law, regulation or stock market rule; provided that such Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the other Party with notice of the contents of each such public disclosure at least ten (10) days prior to issuing such public disclosure, and shall consider in good faith any comments provided by the other Party prior to making such public disclosure.  Except as contemplated by the prior sentence, each Party must get the prior approval of the other Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, prior to making any public announcement, or issuance of a press release, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 




			
	
			
				 9.13
			No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in ARTICLE 8 hereof, this Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.




			
	
			
				 9.14
			Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each of the Parties. No waiver by either Party of any right or remedy hereunder shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Party giving such waiver. No waiver by either Party with respect to any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

			Expenses. Except as set forth in ‎ARTICLE 8, each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.




			
	
			
				 9.16
			Dispute Resolution.  Each Party shall provide the other Party with written notice of any claim of breach under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement and such other Party shall have a reasonable period of time (of not less than 30 days) to cure such breach if curable.  The Parties recognize that a bona fide dispute as to certain matters may from time to time arise relating to either Party’s rights or obligations hereunder or under the Ancillary Agreement, or otherwise relating to the validity, enforceability or performance of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, including claims for indemnification under this Agreement.  In the event of the occurrence of any such dispute, the Parties shall, by written notice to the other Party, have such dispute referred to their respective senior officers designated below, for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations commencing promptly after such notice is received.  Said designated senior officials of the Parties are as follows:




		
			For Debiopharm:Chief Executive Officer; and
		

		
			For ImmunoGen:Chief Executive Officer.
		

		
			If the designated senior officials are not able to resolve such dispute within 60 days following delivery of the notice referring the dispute to the Parties’ respective senior officers designated above, then such dispute shall be finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR”) Rules for Administered Arbitration by three independent arbitrators, of whom each Party shall designate one, with the third arbitrator to be designated by the two Party-designated arbitrators.  The arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§1 et seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered by any court having competent jurisdiction thereof.  The place of arbitration shall be the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, New York, and all proceedings shall be conducted in English.
		

			
	
			
				 9.17
			Equitable Relief; Submission to Jurisdiction.  Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if a Party reasonably requires relief on a more expedited basis that would be possible pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 9.16, such Party may seek a temporary injunction or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction, without posting a bond, pending the resolution of the Dispute in accordance with Section 9.16.  Solely with respect to a Party seeking a temporary injunction or other equitable relief, each Party (a) submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Southern  District of the State of New York in any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, (b)  waives any claim of inconvenient forum or other challenge to venue in such court, (c) agrees not to bring any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements in any other court, and (d) waives any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements.  The Parties agree that with respect to any arbitration of a Dispute, the arbitrators shall resolve all threshold issues relating to the validity and applicability of the arbitration provisions of this Agreement,  contract validity, applicability of statutes of limitations and issue preclusion, and such threshold issues shall not be heard or determined by such court. Each party agrees to accept service of any summons, complaint or other initial pleading made in the manner provided for the giving of notices in this Agreement, provided that nothing in this Section 9.17 shall affect the right of either Party to serve such summons, complaint or other initial pleading in any other manner permitted by law.
