Licenses





	
2.1.1
	
Patents and Know-How




Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, FMI hereby grants to Roche a right and license, including the right to sublicense solely as permitted in Section 2.1.2, under FMI’s interest in the FMI Patent Rights and FMI Know-How to use, have used, import, have imported, export, have exported, market, have marketed, distribute, have distributed, sell and have sold Products in the Territory. Subject to Section 2.2 and the other terms of this Agreement, the foregoing license shall be exclusive (even as to FMI).

 


	
2.1.2
	
Sublicenses




The licenses granted by FMI to Roche in Section 2.1.1 and 2.1.3 may be sublicensed by Roche to any Affiliate of Roche for so long as such Affiliate remains an Affiliate. Any such sublicense automatically terminates if such Affiliate Sublicensee ceases to be an Affiliate of Roche. In addition, the licenses granted by FMI to Roche in Section 2.1.1 and 2.1.3 (and any sublicense by Roche to an Affiliate of Roche) may be sublicensed (through one or more tiers) by Roche (and its Affiliates) to a Third Party (i) without the prior written consent of FMI in countries where Roche customarily utilizes such Third Party to conduct commercialization activities on behalf of Roche or its Affiliates or (ii) otherwise with the prior written consent of FMI, not to be unreasonably withheld. Roche shall be liable for any act or omission of any such Sublicensee that is a breach of any of Roche’s obligations under this Agreement as though the same were a breach by Roche, and FMI shall have the right to proceed directly against Roche without any obligation to first proceed against such Sublicensee.


	
2.1.3
	
Trademarks




Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, FMI hereby grants to Roche a right and license, including the right to sublicense solely as permitted in Section 2.1.2, under FMI’s interest in the FMI Trademarks to use, have used, import, have imported, export, have exported, market, have marketed, distribute, have distributed, sell and have sold Products in the Territory.

Exclusive Right to Commercialize Products




Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Roche and its Sublicensees shall have the exclusive right (even as to FMI) to market, distribute and sell Products in the Territory, subject to activities designated for FMI to conduct under a Tactical Plan approved by the JOC. To the extent applicable, the foregoing right shall be subject to the rights granted under the Existing Third Party Rights.

Existing Third Party Rights. Notwithstanding the above, if there is any termination fee, penalty or similar fee, Roche shall have the right to pay such termination fee, penalty or similar fee to terminate any or all of the Existing Third Party Rights. Moreover, Roche shall have the right, in coordination with FMI, to engage in negotiations with the Third Parties to which the Existing Third Party Rights pertain, with the intent of allowing Roche to intervene to terminate such Existing Third Party Rights.

 

Unless otherwise agreed expressly by the Parties, for any companion diagnostic assay Product, that is also for use in indicating a therapeutic or referencing a clinical trial of a Third Party (“Universal CDx Product”), such Third Party shall have the right to recommend use of such Universal CDx Product in the Territory to the extent allowable under Applicable Law, including using or referencing such Universal CDx Product name, logo and trade dress in such Third Party therapeutics label, package insert, or in its promotional and regulatory materials.  Without limiting the foregoing, Third Parties with Regulated Claims on a Universal CDx Product, including F1CDx, in any country shall be permitted, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, to recommend the use of and promote a Universal CDx Product, including F1CDx, to their customers, including as a companion diagnostic for such Third Party’s therapeutics.  To the extent that FMI enters into any in vitro diagnostic development agreement with any Third Party that contemplates a Regulated Claim on F1CDx in the Territory, and to the extent such Third Party desires to promote F1CDx in the Territory, FMI will include in its in vitro diagnostic development agreement with such Third Party an obligation that any promotion of F1CDx by such Third Party will comply with Applicable Laws and be consistent with the F1CDx brand and product messaging guidelines provided by FMI and the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

FMI will provide a copy of any material modifications to any Product specifications (other than F1CDx) to Roche prior to such implementation.  FMI shall consider in good faith any and all comments or concerns timely raised by Roche in connection with its review of such draft specifications or such modifications (in each case, excluding Third Party confidential information relating to F1CDx).  FMI shall only be authorized to adopt modifications to the First Year Product specifications that result in a diminution to the analytical performance as measured by the metrics set forth in Appendix 2.3, either (i) with the prior written consent of Roche or (ii) without such consent if FMI has or is adopting the same modification to the specifications for the same Product as it has developed and commercialized in the US. In the event that clause (ii) above is applicable for an Initial Product, the JOC may reset the Minimum Revenue Requirement in such year in accordance with Section 7.4.1.2.

6.1.1
	
Responsibility for Products Other than F1CDx




Subject to Roche’s obligation under Section 7.4.1.4 to satisfy the Product Documentation Requirements, unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, FMI, [...***...], shall be responsible for, in consultation with Roche, and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts in the preparation of applications for Regulatory Approvals, as well as all governmental approvals required to market, import, have imported, sell and have sold Products (other than F1CDx, which is addressed in Section 6.1.2) in the Territory. FMI shall be responsible for pursuing and compiling all regulatory filing documentation, and Roche shall reasonably assist FMI in preparing and submitting such regulatory filing documentation and interacting with Regulatory Authorities, for Products (other than F1CDx) in the Territory. FMI or its Affiliates shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to prepare, or have prepared for it, all regulatory filings and Regulatory Approvals for all Products (other than F1CDx) that are required to be submitted in each country of the Territory where Roche intends to Commercially Launch such Product or has Commercially Launched such Product. Roche shall reasonably assist FMI in submitting all such regulatory filings and Regulatory Approvals in FMI’s name, unless prohibited by Applicable Law, in which case, to the extent required under Applicable Law, Roche shall file such regulatory filings and Regulatory Approvals in Roche’s name. Each Party shall promptly supply the other Party with a copy of all material communications related to such Product to or from any Regulatory Authority in the Territory, including (i) communications with respect to any visits by any governmental authority or Regulatory Authority to any facilities at which any Product is manufactured or sold in the Territory and (ii) any written or oral inquiries about, any procedures in connection with any Product in the Territory.


	
6.1.2
	
Responsibility for F1CDx 




FMI shall control (a) all regulatory filings for F1CDx, including all submissions, applications and documents in connection with obtaining a Regulatory Approval, and (b) all regulatory strategy, including (i) determination of the filings, data and documentation to submit to the applicable Regulatory Authorities, (ii) the timing of submitting regulatory filings, including any data and documentation, to the applicable Regulatory Authorities, and (iii) any communications with the applicable Regulatory Authorities in connection with F1CDx.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Subsequent Claim Filing relates to [...***...], then Roche (or its Affiliate or Sublicensee, as applicable) will be responsible [...***...] as set forth herein based upon contracted terms agreed upon by Roche (or its Affiliate or Sublicensee, as applicable) and FMI for such [...***...]. 


	
6.1.2.3
	
Firewall




In a Regulated Market, Roche agrees to establish, or cause to be established, a firewall to protect Third Party information not in the public domain (the “Firewall”).  At a minimum, such Firewall will ensure that: 


	
 
	
(i)
	
individuals receiving Third Party confidential or proprietary information, including data, related to the F1CDx regulatory filing from FMI on either (a) an Initial Launch, including a F1CDx Initial Launch Plan or the Initial Filing, or (b) a Subsequent Claim Filing, including any documentation submitted in connection with such Subsequent Claim Filing (such individuals, the “F1CDx Personnel”), will be the only persons at Roche (or its Affiliate or Sublicensee, as applicable) to receive such Third Party confidential or proprietary information, including data, related to the F1CDx regulatory filing (“Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information”);
	
 





	
 
	
(ii)
	
the names and titles of the F1CDx Personnel will be disclosed to FMI and other F1CDx Personnel prior to such persons’ working on any such regulatory filings;
	
 





	
 
	
(iii)
	
the F1CDx Personnel will be available for meetings, either in person or by tele-/video-conference, to discuss the Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information and the regulatory strategy in connection with pursuing the Regulatory Approval for F1CDx; 
	
 





	
 
	
(iv)
	
the F1CDx Personnel will only use the Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information for the F1CDx regulatory filing and will not use or rely upon the Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information for any other purpose; and 
	
 





	
 
	
(v)
	
the F1CDx Personnel will not disclose any Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information to persons other than other F1CDx Personnel and the applicable Regulatory Authority in connection with the regulatory filing.  
	
 




 

 

FMI will identify any Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information to the F1CDx Personnel (a) at the time such information is provided to the F1CDx Personnel or (b) if FMI inadvertently fails to so identify such information at the time FMI provides such information to the F1CDx Personnel, provided that if FMI subsequently identifies such information as Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information, then Roche will not be liable under this Section 6.1.2.3 for any failure to comply with its obligations related to such information prior to such subsequent identification by FMI. For clarity, FMI shall by solely liable for any damages caused by its failure to identify any Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information to the F1CDx Personnel at the time such information is provided to the F1CDx Personnel. 

 

Roche agrees to execute, and shall cause any Affiliates or Sublicensees to execute, any additional documentation reasonably requested by FMI to confirm the Firewall has been implemented and maintained in a Regulated Market in the Territory.

***Confidential Treatment Requested***




 



 

In the event that any portion of Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information becomes generally known to the public other than as a result of a breach by the Roche Group or any F1CDx Personnel of the Firewall obligations contained in this Section 6.1.2.3, such Firewall obligations will no longer apply to such portion of the Third Party F1CDX Regulatory Information.  For clarity, in such event, the Firewall obligations will continue to apply to the remainder of the Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information.

 

Roche shall make available (and shall require its Affiliates or Sublicensees to make available) policies, and procedures relating to the Firewall and the use of Third Party F1CDx Regulatory Information (collectively, “Firewall Policies”) to FMI during regular business hours in such a manner as to not unnecessarily interfere with Roche’s (or its Affiliate’s or Sublicense’s, as applicable) normal business activities.  FMI or its agents shall have the right to audit such Firewall Policies and relevant records to confirm that the Firewall has been implemented and maintained in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in a given Regulated Market in the Territory. FMI shall use the Firewall Policies only for the purpose of confirming compliance with the Firewall requirements herein, and such Firewall Policies and records shall be considered Roche’s Confidential Information. 

 

Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to FMI (including pursuant to Section 14.1), if Roche fails to fulfill its obligations under Section 6.1.2.3(i), (iv) or (v), upon notice from FMI of such failure, Roche will have a [...***...] cure period.  If, after such fifteen (15) Business Day cure period, Roche has not cured its failure to fulfill such obligations, FMI may, in its sole discretion, elect to either (a) remove such country from the Territory upon written notice to Roche or (b) convert the licenses under Section 2.1 to non-exclusive (either of clause (a) or (b), a “Territory Revision Event 1”).  Upon a Territory Revision Event 1, Roche shall comply with its obligations under Section 17.3.1 (Termination by FMI for Breach by Roche or by Roche without a Cause, or Expiration of the Agreement Term).

 


	
6.1.2.4
	
 Regulatory Partner




FMI may elect to designate Roche as its local regulatory partner in a given country in the Territory (“Regulatory Partner”) to fulfill any portion of the responsibilities of FMI pursuant to Section 6.1.2 (Responsibility for F1CDx) and, upon such election, Roche shall collaborate with FMI on any regulatory filing (including an Initial Filing, Subsequent Claim Filing, CE marking or any other activity in connection with obtaining Regulatory Approval or any other governmental approvals in a given country in the Territory) and will perform such requested regulatory activities in accordance with an agreed upon timeline (“Roche Regulatory Support”).  

 

If FMI does not designate Roche as its Regulatory Partner in a given country in the Territory and instead seeks to use a Third Party for such regulatory support services for such country, before engaging such Third Party, FMI shall first offer Roche the right to become its Regulatory Partner for such country on the same terms and conditions (including with respect to the scope of regulatory support services and any fees associated therewith) as were offered by the applicable Third Party.  Roche shall have [...***...] during which to provide written notice to FMI accepting such offer (“Regulatory Partner Notice”). If Roche does not accept such offer within such [...***...] period, FMI shall be permitted to engage any Third Party as its Regulatory Partner for such country on terms and conditions substantially similar to the terms and conditions offered to Roche.  If Roche provides the Regulatory Partner Notice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Roche shall be the Regulatory Partner for such country.

***Confidential Treatment Requested***




 



 

 

If Roche is the Regulatory Partner in accordance with Section 6.1.2 (Responsibility for F1CDx) for a given market in the Territory, Roche shall perform such Roche Regulatory Support in a diligent manner and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to perform such Roche Regulatory Support in accordance with the regulatory strategy and instructions provided by FMI and within the time period specified by FMI. 

 

For any Non-Regulated Market, Roche will be responsible for the Roche internal FTE costs for providing the Roche Regulatory Support pursuant to this Section 6.1.2.4, and FMI will be responsible for any FMI internal FTE costs.

 

Any Roche Regulatory Support performed by Roche to file a Subsequent Claim Filing and obtain Regulatory Approval on such Subsequent Claim Filing on behalf of a Third Party pursuant to Section 6.1.2.2 (Subsequent Claim Filing) that is subject to payment by FMI shall be reimbursed by [...***...], provided that Roche provides an estimate of the anticipated costs for the Roche Regulatory Support in a given country. The actual costs that FMI shall reimburse Roche shall not exceed such estimate by more than [...***...] without FMI’s prior approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.  

 

 

Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to FMI (including pursuant to Section 14.1), if Roche fails to fulfill  the Roche Regulatory Support obligations as set forth in this Section 6.1.2.4, including by failing to make a timely filing (or response) in order to obtain Regulatory Approval, and there is a delay in the process for obtaining Regulatory Approval or for the Commercial Launch of the therapeutic product and/or the companion diagnostic claim, upon notice from FMI of such failure, Roche will have a [...***...] period to cure its failure and make the relevant filings or response, as applicable.  In the event that Roche fails to make the relevant filing or response, as applicable, within such [...***...] period, Roche shall pay FMI the following amounts: (x) in the case of a Critical Core Country, [...***...] for such failure or (y) in the case of a Core Country that is not a Critical Core Country, [...***...].  If, after an additional [...***...] cure period, Roche has not provided the Roche Regulatory Support, FMI may, in its sole discretion, elect to either (a) remove such country from the Territory upon written notice to Roche or (b) convert the licenses under Section 2.1 to non-exclusive (either of clause (a) or (b), a “Territory Revision Event 2”).  Upon a Territory Revision Event 2, Roche shall comply with its obligations under Section 17.3.1 (Termination by FMI for Breach by Roche or by Roche without a Cause, or Expiration of the Agreement Term).

Clinical Trials




The Parties shall discuss at the JOC and consider any clinical research (including, without limitation, any investigator sponsored studies and studies with key opinion leaders) to be conducted for the Products during the Agreement Term that may be necessary or reasonably useful in furtherance of market development and access for Products in the Territory. Except as otherwise agreed to by the Parties or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, Roche shall have the right to conduct local clinical studies (including investigator sponsored studies and clinical studies with key opinion leaders) where such clinical research is for such local country or Region, provided that Roche shall consult with FMI through the JOC and consider in good faith any comments provided by FMI with respect to such strategy and conduct of such local clinical

Except as otherwise agreed to by the Parties or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, with respect to any global clinical studies, FMI shall have the right to conduct, [...***...] and shall be responsible for the strategy and conduct of such global clinical studies, provided that FMI shall consult with Roche through the JOC and consider in good faith any comments provided by Roche with respect to such strategy and conduct of such global clinical studies. If the Parties do not mutually agree to conduct additional global clinical research for the Territory, FMI shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pursue such global clinical research in its sole discretion and shall be responsible for [...***...].

 


	
6.3
	
Reporting Adverse Events




If the development or commercialization or a given Product mandates the mutual reporting of Adverse Events, then the Parties will establish procedures for tracking and informing each other concerning such Adverse Events as required by Applicable Law, and shall maintain such databases and execute such agreements as needed for this purpose.

 

If in the course of the activity covered by this Agreement, FMI employees (i) in FMI’s medical affairs group or pathology group or (ii) who are client services representatives or sales account executives, become aware of a suspected Adverse Events/special situation report (pregnancy, breastfeeding, lack of efficacy, overdose, misuse, abuse, off-label use, medication errors (including intercepted and potential), occupational exposure, suspected transmission of an infectious agent via a medicinal product, death, quality defect or falsified medicinal product) associated the use of a Roche medicinal product, this should be reported to the Roche Drug Safety department at welwyn.pds-pc@roche.com promptly.  As used herein, “Adverse Event” means any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.  An Adverse Event can therefore be any unfavorable or unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to the medicinal product.

 


	
6.4
	
Reimbursement




Roche will be responsible, [...***...] in cooperation with FMI, for all activities related to reimbursement approval for Products in the Territory. Prior to submission, Roche shall discuss its proposed filings for reimbursement approval of Products at the JOC and shall consider in good faith any comments provided by FMI with respect to such filings. After those materials have been submitted to the appropriate pricing authority, Roche shall permit FMI to obtain copies of such materials, including in electronic format, at reasonable times. However, if FMI or its Affiliates or sublicensees (other than any sublicensees that have been approved by Roche) have sales forces in a country/Region outside of the FMI Territory for a FMI clinical diagnostic product, then Roche shall have the right to redact from such filings competitively sensitive information on reimbursement approvals to FMI for any Product in such country/Region. Roche shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to file submissions for reimbursement approval in each country where it intends to, or has, Commercially Launched a Product. For clarity, submissions for reimbursement approval in the Territory shall be consistent with the [...***...] agreed upon by the Parties.

F1CDx Initial Launch Plan, Subsequent Claim Filings, and Non-Regulated Updates





	
7.3.1
	
F1CDx Initial Launch Plan 




During the Agreement Term, FoundationOne will be replaced with F1CDx, in each market in the Territory, following notice from FMI that FMI desires to Commercially Launch F1CDx in a given market (“F1CDx Launch Notice”).  The timeline of implementing the updated F1CDx bait set will be determined by FMI. FMI will be responsible for the preparation of a plan with respect to the timing of the Initial Launch for F1CDx in a given country or region in the Territory (each, an “F1CDx Initial Launch Plan”), which will be agreed upon by the JOC pursuant to Section 4.4.  

 

Each F1CDx Initial Launch Plan shall include, at a minimum, the following, in each case, as related to the specific country or region in the Territory: (i) the projected timeline of the Initial Launch of F1CDx (either a target date or by reference to the date on which the required approvals have been received), (ii) the date by which the Parties anticipate that the FoundationOne Product will no longer be commercially available in such country and will instead be fully replaced by F1CDx, and (iii) the appropriate size for the Dedicated Sales Force.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that FMI will use the same F1CDx bait set in the Territory that it uses in the US (based on the F1CDx Product approved by the FDA), as the same may be modified over time, with any modifications to the bait set to be reviewed by the JOC pursuant to Section 4.4.  The F1CDx Initial Launch Plan will be in addition to the Tactical Plan and Post Approval Plan for F1CDx in a given country in the Territory.

 

As of the date FMI provides the F1CDx Launch Notice for a given country or region in the Territory: (a) if Roche has not Commercially Launched the FoundationOne Product in such country or region, Roche shall not Commercially Launch the FoundationOne Product and shall instead Commercially Launch F1CDx in such country or region in accordance with the applicable F1CDx Initial Launch Plan, (b) if Roche has Commercially Launched the FoundationOne Product in such country or region, and such country or region is a Regulated Market, Roche shall continue to make the FoundationOne Product commercially available until the necessary Regulatory Approvals have been received to commercialize F1CDx in such country, after which time Roche

shall Commercially Launch F1CDx in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable F1CDx Initial Launch Plan (and following Commercial Launch of F1CDx in such country, Roche will stop commercializing FoundationOne in such country), and (c) if Roche has Commercially Launched the FoundationOne Product in such country or region, and such country or region is a Non-Regulated Market, FMI shall incorporate the F1CDx bait set on the timeline outlined by FMI in the F1CDx Initial Launch Plan for such country or region (which shall be subject to FMI’s sole discretion), after which incorporation, Roche shall Commercially Launch F1CDx and stop commercializing FoundationOne in such country.  Appendix 7.3.1 lists all of the countries in which Roche has launched FoundationOne as of the Restatement Date.  

 

During the Agreement Term, Roche will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to Commercially Launch F1CDx (1) in each country in the Territory for which FMI has delivered an F1CDx Launch Notice and (2) in accordance with the timelines set forth in the applicable F1CDx Initial Launch Plan for each Core Country.  Roche shall ensure that F1CDx is Commercially Launched in each country or region in the Territory: (a) by the target date set forth in the F1CDx Initial Launch Plan or (b) in the absence of a launch target date as set forth in the F1CDx Initial Launch Plan, within [...***...] following the Parties’ agreement that all required Regulatory Approvals have been received in such market (either of clause (a) or (b), the “Initial Launch Requirement”).  

 

In a given country in the Territory, (a) if Roche determines not to commercialize F1CDx in such country, or (b) subject to Section 7.3.2 (Subsequent Claim Filings and Non-Regulated Updates) and 7.4.1.4 (Commercial Launch Obligations), if Roche fails to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to satisfy its commercialization obligations with respect to F1CDx (including a Subsequent Claim Filing or Non-Regulated Update, as applicable) in such country, FMI may, in its sole discretion, elect to either (i) remove such country from the Territory upon written notice to Roche or (ii) convert the licenses under Section 2.1 to non-exclusive (either of clause (i) or (ii), a “Territory Revision Event 3”).  Upon a Territory Revision Event 3, Roche shall comply with its obligations under Section 17.3.1 (Termination by FMI for Breach by Roche or by Roche without a Cause, or Expiration of the Agreement Term). 

 

Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to FMI (including pursuant to Section 14.1), if Roche does not satisfy the Initial Launch Requirement with respect to a given country, FMI shall provide written notice to Roche identifying such non-compliance in the given country, and Roche shall have a period of [...***...] after such notice is provided to cure such non-compliance.  If Roche has not cured such non-compliance within such [...***...] period, Roche shall pay FMI [...***...] for any country that is a Critical Core Country and (ii) [...***...] for any Core Country that is not a Critical Core Country.  Following such [...***...] cure period, Roche will have an additional [...***...] period to ensure compliance with the foregoing requirements in this Section 7.5.1.  If Roche has not cured such non-compliance within such additional [...***...] period, FMI may, in its sole discretion, elect to either (x) remove such country from the Territory upon written notice to Roche or (y) convert the licenses under Section 2.1 to non-exclusive (either of clause (x) or (y), a “Territory Revision Event 4”).

Subsequent Claim Filings, and any updates to F1CDx in a Non-Regulated Market (“Non-Regulated Updates”), are Commercially Launched in such market in the time period mutually agreed to by the Parties.  In the absence of a mutually agreed date, Roche will ensure that (a) any updates to F1CDx that include Subsequent Claim Filings are Commercially Launched in the applicable market following the Parties’ agreement that all required Regulatory Approvals have been received for such Subsequent Claim Filing within a time period that is consistent with the time period that Roche would apply if the companion diagnostic claim in such Subsequent Claim Filing were for a Roche Group therapeutic (but no longer than [...***...] following the issuance of all required Regulatory Approvals for such Subsequent Claim Filing), and (b) any Non-Regulated Updates are Commercially Launched within a time period that is consistent with the time period that Roche would apply if the companion diagnostic claim in such Non-Regulated Update were for a Roche Group therapeutic (but no longer than [...***...] following the proposed addition by FMI of the Non-Regulated Update).  

 

Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to FMI (including pursuant to Section 14.1), if Roche does not satisfy the timing of the Subsequent Claim Filing or the Non-Regulated Update set forth in this Section 7.3.2 with respect to a given country in the Territory, FMI shall provide written notice to Roche identifying such non-compliance in the given country, and Roche shall have a period of [...***...] after such notice is provided to cure such non-compliance.  If Roche has not cured such non-compliance within such [...***...] period, Roche shall pay FMI (i) [...***...] for any country that is a Critical Core Country and (ii) [...***...] for any Core Country that is not a Critical Core Country.  Following such [...***...] cure period, Roche will have an additional [...***...] period to ensure compliance with the foregoing requirements in this Section 7.3.2 for any country in the Territory.  If Roche has not cured such non-compliance within such additional [...***...] period, FMI may, in its sole discretion, elect to either (x) remove such country from the Territory upon written notice to Roche or (y) convert the licenses under Section 2.1 to non-exclusive (either of clause (x) or (y), a “Territory Revision Event 5”).  Upon a Territory Revision Event 5, Roche shall comply with its obligations under Section 17.3.1 (Termination by FMI for Breach by Roche or by Roche without a Cause, or Expiration of the Agreement Term).


	
7.3.3
	
FMI’s Decision Not to Offer F1CDx in a Country in the Territory




Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.3.1, if the Commercial Launch of  F1CDx in any country in the Territory requires the conduct of any Service Activities for F1CDx in such country (for example, establishing new infrastructure such as a wet and/or dry laboratory) or establishes or maintains requirements that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on FMI’s business or operations, FMI may, in its sole discretion, decide: (i) not to offer F1CDx in such country in the Territory, or (ii) to otherwise work with Roche on mutually agreeable terms to make F1CDx available in such country.

providing sufficient customer service support for such Product to support such Product’s customers in such country or region, as applicable. 
	
 




 

Roche shall satisfy the ongoing obligations required for the Commercial Launch of each Product (as set forth in this Section 7.4.1.4).  Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to FMI (including pursuant to Section 14.1), if, during the Agreement Term, following the Commercial Launch of a Product, Roche no longer satisfies any of its ongoing obligations for the Commercial Launch of such Product (as set forth in this Section 7.4.1.4) with respect to a given Product in a given country, FMI shall provide written notice to Roche identifying such non-compliance in the given country, and Roche shall have a period of  [...***...] after such notice is provided to cure such non-compliance.  If Roche has not been cured such non-compliance within such [...***...] period, FMI may, in its sole discretion, elect to either (x) remove such country from the Territory upon written notice to Roche or (y) convert the licenses under Section 2.1 to non-exclusive (either of clause (x) or (y), a “Territory Revision Event 6”).  Upon a Territory Revision Event 6, Roche shall comply with its obligations under Section 17.3.1 (Termination by FMI for Breach by Roche or by Roche without a Cause, or Expiration of the Agreement Term).

Equitable Adjustments




Where either Roche or FMI has an obligation under this Agreement (each such a “Dependent Obligation”) that can only reasonably be fulfilled if the other Party first performs one or more of its specific contractual obligations hereunder (each, a “Precedent Obligation”), then, any deadline for the performance by Roche or FMI, as applicable, of such Dependent Obligation shall be tolled (i.e., the deadline shall be extended) for a period of time equal to the delay in the performance by such other Party of the relevant Precedent Obligation. For avoidance of doubt, each such deadline shall be similarly tolled to the extent achievement of an obligation under this Agreement is prevented by an event of force majeure as and to the extent provided in Section 19.16.

For each Product, FMI will provide the JOC with the average time between receipt by FMI of a processable sample meeting minimum tissue or other specimen requirements as set forth in FMI’s standard operating procedures (such sample, a “Qualified Sample”) and delivery by FMI of the results of testing for such Product (the “Average Delivery Time Metric”).  Such Average Delivery Time Metric will initially be [...***...] for FoundationOne® and F1CDx, and [...***...] days for FoundationOne® Heme and FoundationACT®, in each case, solely to the extent Service Activities for such Product are conducted by FMI at FMI’s laboratory and facilities in the US. Periodically, the Average Delivery Time Metric may be revised by mutual written agreement of the Parties for differences in logistical, regulatory and other relevant factors.  For a given Product, if FMI fails to achieve the Average Delivery Time Metric for at least [...***...] of the Qualified Samples received from Roche in the Territory in [...***...] Calendar Quarter (a “Quarterly Average Delivery Time Failure”) and such failure exists [...***...], then prior to the end of such [...***...], the JOC shall prepare a plan for improving such performance, which plan will be implemented in the [...***...].  The JOC will monitor the implementation and effectiveness of such plan with a goal of achieving and maintaining compliance on a consistent basis for such Average Delivery Time Metric. If, following the implementation of a plan by the JOC to improve such performance, FMI is unable to improve performance, and there is a Quarterly Average Delivery Time Failure for an additional [...***...] (a “Material Average Delivery Time Failure”), then this shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement by FMI.

 

To the extent feasible and permitted by Applicable Law and regulatory guidelines of applicable Regulatory Authorities, the initial sequencing will be conducted by FMI at FMI’s laboratory and facilities in the US.

 

FMI shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to conduct or have conducted genomic sequencing locally (i) for its FoundationOne Product [...***...] and (ii) for its other First Year Products [...***...].  FMI shall provide Roche with a written plan for the set-up of such [...***...] laboratories, and shall consider Roche’s reasonable comments thereto.  FMI shall update Roche on the progress of the establishment of local testing.  Such [...***...] activities shall be provided in at least the same quality and standards as the [...***...] testing in effect as of the Effective Date. To the extent that local Third Party costs are passed through to Roche, such costs shall be negotiated in good faith and at arms’ length with no benefits being given to FMI to the advantage or FMI, its Affiliates, sublicensees or customers that cause a disadvantage or do not similarly benefit the Roche Group and its customers.

 

FMI will be solely responsible, [...***...], for the establishment of such laboratories and all Regulatory Approvals necessary for the establishment and operation of such laboratory(ies). Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties expressly acknowledge that FMI may choose to work with [...***...].

 

Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Parties, data and final analysis, including medical curation and report generation will be conducted by FMI.  Final reports for the First Year Products will be provided from FMI in English or in the local language, to the extent requested by Roche and agreed to by FMI.  If FMI is unable to provide local sequencing on the timeline set forth in this Section 7.4.2.3, or if FMI is unable to provide the NGS sequencing necessary to meet Roche’s commercial requirements for a period of [...***...], then the JOC shall meet to determine a plan for improving such performance and the JOC will monitor the implementation and effectiveness of such plan, and FMI will provide reasonable support, with a goal of ensuring ongoing access to sufficient local sequencing, which may include Roche (itself or with or through a Third Party acceptable to FMI) performing such local sequencing in a manner approved by FMI that meets FMI’s requirements for performing subsequent Service Activities.

Product Promotional Materials and Promotional Obligations




The Parties will collaborate and coordinate around development of any promotional or educational materials to be utilized for Products in the Territory leveraging FMI’s existing materials.

 

Roche shall be responsible for the preparation of all product promotional material for use with the Products by Roche in the Territory. All such Product promotional material shall be consistent with reasonable brand and Product guidelines provided to Roche by FMI. Any Product promotional materials not consistent with such approved guidelines shall be subject to review and approval by FMI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Product promotional guidelines and materials approved by FMI to be used by Roche will be subject to final review and approval by Roche.

 

To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Roche’s sales and commercial representatives who promote Roche therapeutics shall be permitted to promote F1CDx, provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that this shall not relieve Roche of its obligation to maintain a Dedicated Sales Force as provided herein.

 


	
7.7
	
F1CDx Report




The content of the F1CDx report generated for any customers, whether in paper or electronic format (the “F1CDx Report”), shall contain the following:


	
 
	
(a)
	
in a Regulated Market: (i) a section reviewed and approved by the applicable Regulatory Authority, including any companion diagnostic claims and associated approved therapies (the “Regulated Claims”); and (ii) a section describing professional services, including variants, associated therapies, and clinical trials, based on the professional services section used in the United States (the “Professional Services”).  For clarity, the F1CDx Report in a Regulated Market will be developed based on the requirements of the applicable Regulatory Authority.  





	
 
	
(b)
	
in a Non-Regulated Market: the Professional Services section only.  For clarity, the F1CDx Report in a Non-Regulated Market shall not include a Regulated Claims section.




 

If (i) required by the applicable Regulatory Authority for a country in which Roche Commercially Launches F1CDx or (ii) FMI otherwise elects to, FMI will generate an F1CDx Report that only includes Regulated Claims as approved in such country, subject to Roche providing localized content on approved companion diagnostics and approved therapies in the English language as set forth below.  All of FMI’s expenses and internal FTE costs (based on the then-current FTE Rate pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement) to develop, implement and maintain the Regulated Claims section of the F1CDx Report with localized reporting in a given country in the Territory will be borne [...***...] by Roche and [...***...] by FMI, as such country is a Regulated Market.

If (a) requested by Roche and approved by FMI or (b) FMI otherwise elects to, FMI will localize, in accordance with the “in scope” localization provisions set forth on Appendix 7.7, the Professional Services section, and if applicable (according to the preceding paragraph in this Section 7.7), the Regulated Claims section, of the F1CDx Report to generate a report with localized content including approved therapies.  In such event, Roche will, at its cost, provide localized content in the English language, and FMI will implement the localized reporting of the Professional Services section, and if applicable (according to the preceding paragraph in this Section 7.7), the Regulated Claims section.  All of FMI’s expenses and internal FTE costs (based on the then-current FTE Rate pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement) to develop, implement and maintain such localized reporting in a given country in the Territory (i) will be shared equally be FMI and Roche if such country is a Non-Regulated Market and (ii) will be borne [...***...] by Roche and [...***...] by FMI if such country is a Regulated Market. If the applicable Regulatory Authority in a Regulated Market requires a localized Professional Services section, and such requirement will have a material adverse impact on Roche (other than on account of competitive products being developed or becoming available in a given market), then FMI and Roche shall discuss in good faith an alternative plan. 

 

If neither Roche nor FMI elects to localize the F1CDx Report content on approved therapies in a given country, FMI will provide to Roche a copy of the then-current US version of the F1CDx Report template.

 

Roche shall be solely responsible for providing FMI with any F1CDx Report localized content on approved companion diagnostics and approved therapies in the English language.   Subject to Applicable Law, Roche, in its sole discretion, may perform translation of parts of, or the whole, F1CDx Report into local languages, and Roche will be required to perform such translation into local languages to the extent required by Applicable Law or a Regulatory Authority. Roche will be responsible and liable for (i) ensuring the accuracy and completeness of any localized content provided in English to FMI and any translation of the F1CDx Report into the local language, and (ii) all cost associated with providing such content and translation.  If Roche, in its sole discretion, elects to, or is required to, provide a translation (into the local language) of the F1CDx Report to customers, Roche must also provide a copy of the version in the English language to the customers, unless the same would be prohibited by Applicable Law.

Neither Party may have communications (either written or oral) with the Panel other than for the sole purpose of engaging the Panel or as expressly permitted in this Section 8.3.5. Within [...***...] after the Panel’s receipt of each Party’s Rebuttal (or the expiration of the period for the Parties to submit a Rebuttal, if earlier), the Panel will select, between the proposals provided by the Parties, the proposal that the Panel believes most accurately reflects an equitable result for FMI and Roche (the “Selected Agreement”). The Panel shall not have the authority to modify a proposal initially submitted by a Party.

The Panel will have reasonable discretion to request additional information, hold a hearing, and extend the time frame for reaching a decision regarding the dispute at issue. The Experts’ fees and expenses will be paid by the Party whose proposal is not selected by the Panel.

A Party (“Non-Breaching Party”) shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety or on a country-by-country or Product-by-Product basis in the event the other Party (“Breaching Party”) is in breach of any of its material obligations under this Agreement.
