2.02       Subdivision Approval:  In the event subdivision approval is required in order to convey the Property which is the subject of this Contract, the Purchaser agrees to diligently pursue at its own cost and expense the obtaining of such subdivision approval from the appropriate governmental authority.

In the event such subdivision approval has not been obtained prior to the Closing date, the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by so notifying the Seller in which event the contractual relationship between the Parties shall be at an end and any payments made by the Purchaser to the Seller shall be refunded.

2.03       Right of Assignment:  Seller may assign its rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement to Seller's principal or subsidiaries, affiliates or subsidiaries of its principal. Said assignment shall be effective upon Seller’s sending written notice to Purchaser.  Any other assignment shall require the written consent of Purchaser, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.  Purchaser shall have the right to assign its interest in this Agreement to an affiliate of Purchaser upon written notification to the Seller.

2.04       Zoning & Environmental Contingency:  This Agreement is expressly made contingent upon the Purchaser obtaining zoning relief which will permit the Purchaser's use of the Property as a storage facility.  Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to assist in obtaining land use or zoning relief for the Property that Purchaser may seek.  Seller agrees to execute documents reasonably necessary to petition the appropriate public body for zoning relief required for Purchaser's intended purposes.  All such activities are to be at the expense of Purchaser.  This Agreement is further made contingent upon the Purchaser receiving a satisfactory environmental study which discloses that the Property is completely free from all types of environmental contamination, and further, in compliance with all local, State and Federal environmental laws.  In the event the Purchaser does not obtain prior to the Closing Date all necessary zoning and governmental approvals to permit the Purchaser's use of the Property as Purchaser intends, including but not limited to a storm water permit, and a satisfactory environmental study as set forth above, the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by so notifying the Seller in which event the contractual relationship between the Parties shall be at an end and any payments made by the Purchaser to the Seller shall be refunded.

 Seller will be responsible for all obligations of compliance with any and all environmental laws, including any regulations, guidelines, standards, or policies of any governmental authorities regulating or imposing standards of liability or standards of conduct with regard to any environmental conditions or concerns as may now or at any time hereafter be in effect, that are or were in any way related to activity now or formerly conducted in, on, or in any way related to the Property, unless such conditions or concerns are caused by the activities of the Purchaser.

 

Seller shall hold Purchaser harmless and indemnify Purchaser from and assume all duties, responsibility and liability at its sole cost and expense, for all duties, responsibilities, and liability (for payment of penalties, sanctions, forfeitures, losses, costs, or damages) and for responding to any action, notice, claim, order, summons, citation, directive, litigation, investigation or proceeding which is in any way related to:  a) failure to comply with any environmental law, including without limitation any regulations, guidelines, standards, or policies of any governmental authorities regulating or imposing standards of liability or standards of conduct with regard to any environmental concerns or conditions as may now or at any time hereafter be in effect that are or were in any way related to activity now or formerly conducted in, on, or in any way related to the Property, unless such conditions or concerns are caused by the activities of the Purchaser; and b) any environmental conditions arising out of or in any way related to the condition of the Property or activities conducted thereon, unless such environmental conditions are caused by Purchaser.

2.05       Condemnation, Damage or Destruction:  If all or any part of the Property is condemned, damaged or destroyed prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option of terminating this Agreement.  In the event of such termination, Seller shall repay all sums theretofore paid by Purchaser; providing, however, that if Seller shall have in force and collectible sufficient fire and extended coverage insurance to cover any such damage or destruction of the Property, and the proceeds of such insurance shall be paid to Purchaser, then Purchaser may elect to continue this Agreement in full force and effect.

2.06       Ingress and Egress Easement: The Parties agree and acknowledge Seller is reserving an ingress and egress easement (the “Easement”) across the Property.  The Easement is further described in the Warranty Deed.   As stipulated in the Warranty Deed, Purchaser shall pay for all costs incurred in connection with the creation of this Easement; however, subsequent to Purchaser’s initial improvements as provided for herein, the responsibility for all necessary maintenance and improvements in the Easement shall be allocated as set forth in the Warranty Deed.

The Parties agree and acknowledge that Seller may be required to make certain improvements to and/or remove obstructions or trees from the property Seller is retaining in order to make use of the Easement.  Seller shall be solely responsible for all costs incurred for any such improvements and/or removals.  The foregoing notwithstanding, the Parties agree and acknowledge Purchaser included a request for removal of three (3) trees on Seller’s property in applicable permit applications for the Easement.

Seller shall provide Purchaser and its agents with reasonable access to the Property to conduct any and all inspections and items of due diligence review contemplated herein.

exchange rate utilized to convert a local currency to U.S. Dollars. Chiva shall maintain complete and accurate records sufficient to enable accurate calculation of royalties and other payments due Ligand hereunder. Such records and books of account
shall be preserved by Chiva for a period of [* * *] after

 12.10 Governing Law. The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall be
governed, and shall be interpreted, construed, and enforced, in all respects by the Law of the State of California, without giving effect to any conflict of Law rule that would result in the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the
internal Law of the State of California to the rights and duties of the Parties. 
 12.11 Dispute Resolution. The Parties
agree that the procedures set forth in this Section 12.11 shall be the exclusive mechanism for resolving any bona fide disputes, controversies or claims (collectively, “Disputes”) between the Parties that arise from time
to time pursuant to this Agreement relating to any Party’s rights and/or obligations hereunder that cannot be resolved through good faith negotiation between the Parties. 

(a) Executive Mediation. Any Dispute shall first be referred to an Executive from each Party for attempted
resolution by good faith negotiations. Any such Dispute shall be submitted to such Executives no later than [* *
*] following such request by either Party. Such Executives
shall attempt in good faith to resolve any such Dispute [* * *] after submission of the Dispute. In the event the Executives are unable to resolve the Dispute, the Parties shall otherwise negotiate in good faith and use reasonable efforts to settle.

 (b) Arbitration. If the Parties are not able to fully settle a Dispute pursuant to Section 12.11(a) above,
and a Party wishes to pursue the matter, each such Dispute that is not an Excluded Claim shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Large Complex Disputes of
the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

portions.

 (1) The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three persons
experienced in the pharmaceutical business: within [* * *]
after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall select one person to act as arbitrator and the two Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within [* * *] of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are
unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA. The place of arbitration shall be [* * *], and all proceedings and communications shall be in English. 

(2) Either Party may apply to the arbitrators for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy
is otherwise resolved. Either Party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any injunctive or provisional relief necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party pending the
arbitration award. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a Party’s compensatory damages. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees and [* * *].

 (3) Except to the extent necessary to confirm an award or as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may
disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both Parties. In no event shall an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute,
controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable California statute of limitations. 
 (c) As used in this Section,
the term “Excluded Claim” shall mean a Dispute that concerns (a) the validity or infringement of a patent, trademark or copyright; or (b) any antitrust, anti-monopoly or competition law or regulation, whether or not statutory.
For all Excluded Claims, the Parties hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California, in and for the County of San Diego, or of the United States of America for the Southern District of California. 

12.12 Headings. The article, section and subsection headings contained herein are for the purposes of convenience only and are not
intended to define or limit the contents of the articles, sections or subsections to which such headings apply. 
 12.13
Severability. When possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Law, but, if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under Law, such provision
will be ineffective but only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or of this Agreement. The Parties will make a good faith effort to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with
a valid one which in its economic effect is most consistent with the invalid or unenforceable provision.
