and in addition to any milestone payments payable to Licensor pursuant to Section 4.1, during the term of this Agreement Licensee
shall pay to Licensor an intellectual property royalty payment in an amount equal to Ten Percent (10%) of Net Sales within the
Territory of Licensed Products. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the royalty rates and structure set forth in this Section
4.2 (including the reduction in royalty rates provided for herein) (a) have been adopted after good faith negotiation and for
the convenience of the Parties; and (b) are payable whether or not a Licensed Product is covered by Licensed Patent Rights.





4.2.2
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.2, Licensee shall have no obligation to pay royalties to Licensor on
sales of Licensed Products between Licensee and its Affiliates or Sub-licensees, where such Licensed Products will be resold to
an unrelated third party; provided that, in such instances, the obligation to pay royalties hereunder shall arise upon the sale
(or resale) of Licensed Products by Licensee's Affiliate or Sub-licensee to unrelated third parties. If, however, Licensee's Affiliate
or Sub-licensee is the commercial end user of such Licensed Products (for uses other than research, development or testing purposes),
then royalties shall be due hereunder on the greater of (a) Licensee's Net Sales resulting from Licensee's sale of such Licensed
Products to such


Affiliate
or Sub-licensee, and (b) Net Sales determined using the average sales price of Licensed Products in arms' length sales to unrelated
third parties during the current Royalty Reporting Period or, if there were no such sales during such Royalty Reporting Period,
during the most recent Royalty Reporting Period when there were such sales.


 


4.2.3
In the event that Licensee is obligated to pay a royalty under one or more third-party license agreements with respect to a Licensed
Compound component of a Licensed Product, then Licensee may reduce the royalty rate payable to Licensor (as set forth in Section
4.2.1) by an amount equal to one-half the total royalties payable to such third-party licensors; provided, however, that application
of this Section 4.2.3 shall not reduce the royalty rate payable by Licensee to less than Four Percent (4.0%).

defined as any product containing as an active pharmaceutical ingredient one or more Licensed Compounds, which product is has
the same pharmaceutical purpose as a Licensed Product) or a generic version of a Licensed Product, if a Licensed Product was covered
by Licensed Patent Rights in the Territory at or prior to the time of such Competitive Product Approved Sale, but is no longer
covered by Licensed Patent Rights (whether due to expiration, abandonment, a final, Lin-appealable adjudication of invalidity
or otherwise); or





(b)    
the date of first Approved Sale of a Competitive Product in the Territory, if a Licensed Product was not covered by Licensed Patent
Rights in such country at or prior to the time of such sale;


 


the
royalty rate payable by Licensee with respect to such Licensed Product shall be reduced to Four Percent (4.0%), unless and until
such Licensed Product shall subsequently be covered by Licensed Patent Rights in the Territory.





4.2.5
Licensee shall keep, and shall obligate each of its Affiliates and Sub-licensees, if any, to keep, full and accurate books of
account containing all particulars that are reasonably necessary for the purpose of calculating the royalties and other amounts

its Affiliates and Sub-licensees that are necessary to verify the payment of royalties and other amounts in compliance with this
Agreement shall be available for inspection by Licensor during normal business hours of Licensee, for three (3) years following
the end of the calendar half year to which they pertain (but Licensor may not perform such inspection more than once per twelve
(12)-month period). Any such inspection shall be performed by an independent certified public accountant retained by Licensor
(and reasonably acceptable to Licensee) for the sole purpose of verifying reports and payments by Licensee hereunder.





4.2.6

(d)    
gross sales revenues, deductions from gross sales and Net Sales made or reported during such calendar half year, by Licensed Product
and by country (or by region, but only if regional reporting is consistent with the Net Sales information kept by Licensee in

(e)     
names and addresses of all Affiliates and Sub-licensees of Licensee involved in the distribution or sale of Licensed Products
in such calendar half year, if Licensee has not previously provided such information to Licensor; and





(f)      
total royalties payable to Licensor for such calendar half year.





4.2.7
Simultaneously with the delivery of each half year royalty report, Licensee shall pay to Licensor the royalty calculated for the
Royalty Reporting Period covered by such report. If no royalties are due, it shall be so reported by Licensee. Each such royalty
payment shall be made in Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Licensor account designated Exhibit B

be paid to the appropriate fiscal or tax authorities on behalf of Licensor. Licensee shall promptly provide to Licensor receipts
from the government or taxing authority evidencing payment of such taxes, if available, or other proof of payment if official
receipts are not available, and shall provide reasonable assistance to Licensor to obtain tax credits therefor. To the extent
Licensor actually uses any such tax credits for withholding taxes, as determined by it in its reasonable discretion, Licensor
shall refund to Licensee the amount of such credits used; provided that Licensor shall not be required to refund any payment of
such withholding tax to Licensee to the extent such payment would result in Licensor being in a worse after-tax economic position
(as determined by Licensor in its reasonable judgment) than if such withholding tax had never been imposed.

ninety (90)-day (or thirty (30)-day, if applicable) period, then such notice of termination shall be null and void; otherwise,
this Agreement shall be terminated on and after the expiration of said ninety (90)-day (or thirty (30)-day, if applicable) period.





11.2.2
This Agreement may be terminated at any time by a Party upon the filing or institution of bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation
or receivership proceedings by or against the other Party, or upon an assignment of a substantial portion of its assets for the
benefit of creditors by such other Party; provided, however, that in the event of any involuntary bankruptcy or receivership proceeding,
such right to terminate shall only become effective if the proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the filing
thereof.





11.2.3
At any time after eighteen (18) months following the Effective Date, this Agreement may be terminated in Licensee's sole discretion
on sixty (60) days prior written notice to Licensor.


 



11.3
Effect of Termination or Expiration


 


11.3.1
Termination of this Agreement under any provision herein shall not affect the obligation of Licensee to pay Licensor any royalty
or other payments which have accrued and are unpaid as of the date of termination, nor shall the same prejudice any other accrued
right of Licensor or Licensee under this Agreement. For the sake of clarity, if a payment obligation has not accrued as of the
effective date of termination of this Agreement, then, except as expressly set forth herein, any subsequent event or achievement
that would have resulted in accrual of such payment obligation — if the Agreement had not been terminated — shall
have no effect on any payment(s) hereunder. Within ninety (90) days after termination, Licensee shall render to Licensor a written
statement of the kind required by Section 4.2.6 hereof with respect to any due and unpaid royalties, and shall accompany such
a statement with payment to cover same.





11.3.2
In the event of termination of this Agreement, other than a termination of this Agreement by Licensee pursuant to Section 11.2.3
or a termination of this Agreement by Licensor pursuant to Section 11.2.1 or Section 11.2.2, Licensee, its Affiliates and Sublicensees
shall be entitled, for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, to sell Licensed Products existing or being manufactured on
the date of termination; provided that Net Sales from sales of such Licensed Products shall be subject to royalty payments under
Section


4.2.





11.3.3
If either party has a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section I I .2.1 or 11.2.2, then such party may elect (in
its sole discretion) to do one of the following: (a) terminate this Agreement and retain its right to pursue any and all remedies
permitted at law or in equity (including contract damage remedies), or (b) continue the Agreement while simultaneously pursuing
any and all remedies permitted at law or in equity (including contract damage remedies). Maybe we could suspend payments until
adjudication.


 


11.4
Survival


 


Expiration
or termination of this Agreement, whether in whole or in part, shall not relieve the Parties of any obligation accruing prior
to such expiration or termination. Any expiration or termination of this Agreement shall be without prejudice to the rights and
the legal and equitable remedies of the Parties accrued or accruing under this Agreement prior to expiration or termination, subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the right to enforce the terms and conditions
set forth herein without terminating this Agreement, and further including any obligations of a Party that are expressly identified
in this Agreement as surviving, or that by their nature or context logically survive, termination, relinquishment or expiration
of this Agreement). Without limiting the foregoing sentence, the provisions of Article 1 (to the extent definitions are embodied
in the following listed Articles and Sections of this Agreement) and Articles 5, 10 and 13, and Sections 6.1, 11.3, 14.5, 14.6,
14.9, 14.10 shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement. Except as set forth in this Article I l, upon termination
or expiration of this Agreement all other rights, licenses and obligations of the Parties shall cease.







12.
ASSIGNMENT


Neither
Party shall have any right or ability to assign or transfer this Agreement or any obligations or benefit under this Agreement
(whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the written consent of the other Party (and any unauthorized purported assignment
will be void). Any Change of Control of Licensee shall be deemed an assignment of this Agreement for purposes of this Section.
Notwithstanding the foregoing Licensee may assign this Agreement, without the consent of Licensor, to an Non-Afflliate Acquirer
in connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of its assets or business to which this Agreement relates
to such Non-Affiliate Acquirer, or in the event of its merger or consolidation with, acquisition by, or sale to such a Non-Affiliate
Acquirer; provided that such Non-Affiliate Acquirer (a) agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement;
and (b) has the financial and other resources to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this
Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and the successors and permitted assigns of Licensee and/or
Licensor.
