5.           Data, Records, Access and Audits.

	
5.1  

	
Compliance.  US Bio and Dyax acknowledge and agree that Dyax is not a “covered entity” as defined by 45 C.F.R. §160.103, that US Bio is a “hybrid entity” as defined by HIPAA, and that the Hub Services are not “covered entity” functions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall comply with HIPAA and any laws relating to the identity of the Patient or prescriber to the extent applicable, and in any case, (i) shall not use or further disclose patient information created or obtained in the course of providing Hub Services under this Agreement for any purposes other than providing Hub Services under this Agreement; and (ii) shall institute reasonable administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect the privacy, security and integrity of such information.

	
5.2  

	
Ownership and Use of Data.  Subject to Applicable Laws, with respect to the activity and other data generated in connection with the Hub Services (which shall be captured in the Hub Services database and reported to Dyax pursuant to this Agreement) (the “Data”), Dyax shall own and have the exclusive right to use all such Data (provided, that US Bio may use such Data to the extent required in its performance of the Hub Services or as otherwise necessary for internal business operations related to the Hub Services) and all such Data shall be deemed to be Dyax Confidential Information. For clarity, (a) US Bio shall not use any Data in connection with any specialty pharmacy services performed by US Bio or any of its Affiliates except to the extent necessary to perform the Specialty Pharmacy Services in accordance with the Specialty Pharmacy Services Agreement between US Bio and Dyax dated December 19, 2012, and, (b) US Bio shall provide any Data that relates to specialty pharmacy services provided by a third party only to those of its employees who have a need to know such information solely for providing the Hub Services hereunder; and (c) US Bio shall not disclose any Data to any of its or its Affiliates’ employees who perform specialty pharmacy services.

	
5.3  

	
Records.  US Bio shall keep complete and accurate books and records pertaining to US Bio’s activities under this Agreement.

5.4  

	
Access and Audits.  US Bio shall permit Dyax employees to access US Bio’s facilities at any mutually agreed upon time during normal business hours to oversee the operations pertaining to the Hub Services provided hereunder.  Dyax, at its expense, may perform, or have an independent third party auditor (subject to execution of a mutually agreeable nondisclosure agreement) perform, audits of the records maintained pursuant to Section 5.3 and may observe, or have an independent third party auditor observe, the performance by US Bio of its activities hereunder to ensure compliance with the terms of this Agreement.  Dyax shall provide US Bio with at least [*****] business days advance written notice of such audits, and shall conduct any audit during normal business hours in a manner that does not interfere with US Bio’s normal business operations.  US Bio shall make available relevant records that do not contain information pertaining to US Bio’s other clients or products and permit such observations.

6.2

6.5  

	
Injunctive Relief.  Each party acknowledges that the failure by the receiving party to comply with any of the provisions of this Section 6 will result in irreparable injury and continuing damage to the disclosing party for which there will be no adequate remedy at law and that, in the event of a failure of the receiving party so to comply, the disclosing party shall be entitled to seek such preliminary and permanent injunctive relief as may be necessary to ensure compliance with all the provisions of this Section without having to prove actual damages or to post a bond.

7.           Use of Marks.

(c)

(iii)  

	
the other party’s dissolution.

 

	                                         (d)	Supervening Illegality.

 

	
(i)  

	
This Agreement shall terminate if both:  (A) as a result of the enactment of any new applicable federal or state law or regulation, or any change in any existing applicable federal or state law or regulation or any new interpretation of any applicable federal or state law or regulation by any legislative body, court or regulatory agency, the performance by a party of any material obligation under the Agreement would be rendered illegal or any material provision of the Agreement would be rendered invalid or unenforceable, and (B) the parties are unable to negotiate a mutually acceptable amendment to the Agreement pursuant to Section 10.2(d)(iii) below.

	
(ii)  

	
The parties agree that the party affected by the new law or regulation or the change in law or regulation or the interpretation of a law or regulation shall use reasonable efforts to give the other party at least [*****] days prior written notice of the effective date of such new law, change, or interpretation.

	
  

	
         (iii)

	
The parties agree that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, either party may, within [*****] business days of giving or receiving notice of the new law, change or interpretation, notify the other party of its wish to renegotiate the applicable terms of the Agreement (“Renegotiation Notice”), in which event the parties shall negotiate in good faith, for a period of [*****] days from delivery of the Renegotiation Notice, an amendment to the Agreement that addresses the portion of the Agreement rendered illegal, invalid or unenforceable by the new law, change or interpretation while preserving to the greatest extent possible the original intent of the Agreement.  If the parties successfully conclude such negotiations prior to the effective date of the new law, change or interpretation, the Agreement shall not terminate and shall be amended to reflect the negotiated terms.  If the parties are unable to successfully conclude such negotiations prior to the effective date of the new law, change or interpretation and such effective date is within the [*****] negotiation period, the Agreement shall be deemed amended to delete such portion rendered illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such amendment to apply only with respect to the operation of the Agreement in the particular jurisdiction in which such portion is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, and the remainder shall remain in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms.  In the event the parties are unable to successfully conclude such negotiations within the [*****] day negotiation period, the Agreement shall terminate at the end of the [*****] day negotiation period.

Dyax shall reimburse US Bio for its reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred with in connection with providing such transition services; provided that, in the event of a termination due to US Bio’s breach, neither the existence of this provision nor the fact of Dyax’s agreement to pay for such transition services shall in any way effect or limit Dyax’s rights or remedies with respect to such breach.

Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve either party of obligations incurred prior to termination.

11.2  

	
Arbitration.  If chief executive officers (or their representatives, it being agreed that the chief executive officer of either party may designate a representative, provided such representative is empowered with decision making in the dispute)  of the parties fail to resolve any dispute as provided in Section 11.1 within [*****] days, then such dispute shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration as follows:

	
(a)  

	
Any dispute that might arise between the parties relating to or arising from this Agreement shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the then-prevailing Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), except where those rules conflict with this provision, in which case this provision controls. Arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator selected from the AAA’s National Roster of Arbitrators, each of whom shall be a lawyer with at least 15 years experience with a law firm or corporate law department of over 25 lawyers or who was a judge of a court of general jurisdiction.  Each party shall have the right to meet and interview the potential arbitrator for no more than one hour each prior to the selection of an arbitrator.  The arbitration shall be held, and Dyax and US Bio irrevocably consent to arbitrate, in a mutually agreeable location.  The arbitration shall be conducted in English.  In rendering the award the arbitrator must apply the substantive law of the State of Delaware (except where that law conflicts with this clause); however, the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.  The arbitrator shall render a written opinion setting forth findings of fact and conclusions of law with the reasons therefor stated.  Under no circumstances shall the arbitrator award damages in excess of or inconsistent with any limitations of liability contained in this Agreement.  Any court with jurisdiction shall enforce this clause and enter judgment on any award.  US Bio and Dyax will agree upon, within [*****] days after the arbitrator is selected or, if they fail to agree, the AAA will design, procedures that they will follow to assure that the arbitration will be concluded and the award rendered within no more than eight months from selection of the arbitrator.

	
(b)  

	
The arbitration proceedings shall be confidential, and neither party shall publicize the nature of any dispute or the outcome of any arbitration proceedings except to the extent required by law, provided in such case the party required to make any disclosure informs the other party of such requirement to allow the other party to seek a protective order.  The arbitrator shall issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard each party’s Confidential Information.

	
(c)  

	
Each party has the right before or during the arbitration to seek and obtain from the appropriate court provisional remedies such as attachment, an injunction, replevin, etc., to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo or preserve the subject matter of the arbitration.
