			(c) Janssen US shall keep complete and adequate records with respect to the proceeds of Products on which it has to pay royalties payable hereunder for at least two (2) years after expiry of the year they concern. Medisorb shall have the right to have such records of Janssen US inspected and examined, at Medisorb's expense, for the purpose of determining the correctness of royalty payments made hereunder.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Such inspection shall be made by an independent, certified public accountant to whom Janssen US shall have no reasonable objection.  Such accountant shall not disclose to Medisorb any information other than that necessary to verify the accuracy of the reports and payments made pursuant to this Agreement.  It is understood that such examination with respect to any quarterly accounting period shall take place not later than two (2) years following the expiration of said period.  Not more than one examination per year shall take place.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Based upon the verification of such reports and whenever there is reasonable doubt about the accuracy of the sales of Product realized by an Affiliate or sublicensee, Medisorb may reasonably request Janssen US to audit the books of such Affiliate or such sublicensee in accordance with any applicable contractual provision, in order to confirm the accuracy of such reports.

			(c) In the event that at any time during the term of this Agreement Medisorb is unable for any reason whatsoever to supply the Medisorb Polymers required by Janssen for use in Products, then the license granted under paragraph 2(a) above shall be expanded to include the Medisorb Technology required to make and use the Medisorb Polymers.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(3) Royalties:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a) Janssen shall pay or cause to be paid to Medisorb a running royalty with respect to all Products sold to customers by Janssen, its Affiliates and Sublicensees, payable quarter-annually in arrears within sixty (60) days following the end of each three (3) month period ending on March 31, June 30, September 30 or December 31 in any year during the term hereof, as follows:  (i) 2.5% of the Net Sales of each unit of Product sold during the preceding calendar quarter during the term hereof, if such unit of Product was manufactured by Medisorb pursuant to a written contract for the supply of Product; or (ii) 5.0% of the Net Sales of each unit of Product sold during the preceding calendar quarter during the term hereof, if such unit of Product was not manufactured by Medisorb pursuant to a written contract for the supply of Product.  Any withholding or other tax that Janssen or any of its Affiliates are required by statute to withhold and pay on behalf of Medisorb with respect to the royalties payable to Medisorb under this Agreement shall be deducted from said royalties and paid contemporaneously with the remittance to Medisorb; provided, however, that in regard to any tax so deducted Janssen shall furnish Medisorb with proper evidence of the taxes paid on its behalf.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b) In the event that, in a country where Product is not claimed in a valid Patent, a similar product obtains a market share greater than [   ]% of the total market revenues for Products and similar products in such country, the parties agree to meet and negotiate in good faith an appropriate reduction in the royalty rate then in effect.  In no event shall a reduction in royalty rates pursuant to this section result in royalty rates [ ] of the rates specified under  Section 3(a)(i) and 3(a)(ii) of this Agreement. For the purposes of this section, "similar product" shall mean a generic version of the Product(s) where: (i) the active agent is [             ], or a chemical analogue thereof and  (ii) the excipient is comprised of lactic and/or glycolic acids.  In the event that patent protection for Product(s) becomes available subsequent to a royalty reduction pursuant to this section, the parties agree to (i) reinstitute the royalty otherwise applicable, and (ii) in the event that any recovery is obtained for prior infringement of the subsequently issued patent, the parties will first apply such recoveries to reimbursing Medisorb for royalties it would otherwise have received.

			(c) Janssen shall keep complete and adequate records with respect to the proceeds of Products on which it has to pay royalties payable hereunder for at least two (2) years after expiry of the year they concern. Medisorb shall have the right to have such records of Janssen inspected and examined, at Medisorb's expense, for the purpose of determining the correctness of royalty payments made hereunder.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Such inspection shall be made by an independent, certified public accountant to whom Janssen shall have no reasonable objection.  Such accountant shall not disclose to Medisorb any information other than that necessary to verify the accuracy of the reports and payments made pursuant to this Agreement.  It is understood that such examination with respect to any quarterly accounting period shall take place not later than two (2) years following the expiration of said period.  Not more than one examination per year shall take place.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Based upon the verification of such reports and whenever there is reasonable doubt about the accuracy of the sales of Product realized by an Affiliate or sublicensee, Medisorb may reasonably request Janssen to audit the books of such Affiliate or such sublicensee in accordance with any applicable contractual provision, in order to confirm the accuracy of such reports.

			(a) Janssen shall use its reasonable efforts to commercialize and market Product, or to have the same commercialized and marketed.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b) In the event that Janssen determines to manufacture Product itself or have Product manufactured by a third party, Medisorb shall transfer to Janssen all relevant Technical Information, and provide such technical assistance, upon mutually agreed terms and conditions, as is required by Janssen in order to enable the manufacture of Product by Janssen or its designated third party manufacturer. However, with respect to such third party manufacturers, except as limited by a written Product manufacturing agreement between Janssen and Medisorb, Medisorb will have a right of first refusal as to the manufacture and supply to Janssen of all Product(s), and component bioabsorbable polymers utilized in such Product(s). Medisorb will have a period of thirty (30) days following written notice from Janssen of terms it is offering to, or prepared to accept from, a third party manufacturer to notify Janssen of its intention to exercise its right of first refusal to supply Product and/or component bioabsorbable polymers thereof to Janssen, its Affiliates and Licensees on terms no less favorable to Janssen than those offered by such third party manufacturer. Such third party manufacturer cannot be an in-kind competitor to Medisorb and must be reasonably acceptable to Medisorb with respect to confidential protection of

			Medisorb's Technical Information. In the event that at any time during the term of this Agreement Medisorb is unable for any reason whatsoever to supply the Medisorb Polymers required by Janssen for use in Products, then the right of first refusal under this paragraph respecting the supply of the component bioabsorbable polymers shall be eliminated. For the purposes of this section, an "in-kind" competitor shall mean any organization which regularly engages in the contract development and/or contract manufacture of injectable controlled release drug delivery systems comprising a polymeric excipient based on lactic and/or glycolic acids and/or other closely related monomers. This Section 4(b) specifically supercedes Section 7(B) of the Development Agreement, which Section 7(B) shall be of no further force or effect.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c) The right of first refusal granted to Medisorb pursuant to Section 4(b) above shall be contingent upon: (i) Medisorb and Janssen reaching an agreement concerning the financing, scheduling and construction in Europe of a Medisorb manufacturing facility within twelve (12) months of the date first above written or the initiation of Phase III human clinical trials, whichever is later, and (ii) prior to the qualification of Medisorb's European manufacturing facility, Medisorb using reasonable efforts to supply from its United States manufacturing facilities all of Janssen's commercial requirements for Product pursuant to the Product Supply Agreement anticipated by Section 7(A) of the Development Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(5) Proprietary Rights
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a) Medisorb will retain title to and ownership of all technology (including, without limitation, all patents, inventions, and data relating thereto) relating to absorbable polymers, controlled release of active agents, and/or manufacturing methods or processes relating to such polymers and the controlled delivery systems for active agents based on such polymers previously owned by Medisorb or developed by Medisorb as a result of the Development Program or otherwise. Medisorb will pay its own costs and expenses in connection with the protection of any such technology, including all patent application and maintenance costs and Janssen agrees to provide Medisorb with any necessary utility information.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Medisorb shall inform Janssen of any patent application it wishes to file to protect proprietary rights defined in Article 5, resulting from either the Development Program or the preliminary Development Program and shall forward a copy of any such patent application to Janssen at least one month prior to filing.

			Medisorb shall consider any suggestions made by Janssen for amplifying such application and shall accordingly amend the application where in Medisorb's opinion it is appropriate.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Nine months after the first filing, Medisorb shall propose a list of countries in which it intends to file foreign equivalents. Janssen shall be given the opportunity to propose further countries to be added to the list. In case the adding of some or all of these further countries is unacceptable  to Medisorb, Janssen shall have the right to file patent applications in those countries, in Medisorb's name and at Janssen expense. Medisorb shall assist in the transfer of rights for the latter patent applications and shall provide all information necessary to file and prosecute such patent applications.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Medisorb shall not abandon part or whole of any of the patents or patent applications without having first consulted Janssen, which shall have the right to further pursue any patents or patent applications which Medisorb wishes to abandon, or parts thereof, in its own name and at its own expense.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b) Janssen and/or its Affiliate will retain title to and ownership of all technology (including, without limitation, all patents, inventions, and data relating thereto) relating to Risperidone or any chemical analogues of Risperidone with similar physiological activity previously owned by Janssen and/or its Affiliate or developed by Janssen as a result of this Agreement or otherwise. Janssen and/or its Affiliate will pay its own costs and expenses in connection with the protection of any such technology, including all patent application and maintenance costs and Medisorb agrees to provide Janssen with any necessary utility information.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c) Any inventions, other than those falling under either section 5(a) or 5(b) hereof, having an inventorship jointly between at least one employee of Janssen or an Affiliate of Janssen and one employee of Medisorb or an Affiliate of Medisorb shall be jointly-owned by Janssen and Medisorb. Each party will cooperate fully in the filing and prosecution of such patent applications.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Janssen and Medisorb shall agree on which of both shall be responsible for the filing, prosecution and maintenance of any such joint patent applications and patents (hereinafter referred to as the "Responsible Party"). In principle, the party having contributed the most to the invention to be protected shall be the responsible party, unless agreed upon differently. Upon mutual consent, the responsible party may select an agent for drafting, filing and prosecuting a joint application. However, both parties shall agree who shall be the agent and to what extent this agent shall be used.

			The Responsible Party shall consult the other party when drafting any new jointly owned patent application. The final draft shall be forwarded to the other party at least one month prior to filing to give the opportunity to make final comments.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The Responsible Party shall propose a list of countries in which it intends to file such patent applications. The other party shall be given the opportunity to propose further countries to be added to the list. In case the adding of some or all of these further countries is unacceptable to the Responsible Party, the other party shall have the right to file patent applications in those countries, in its own name and at its own expense. The Responsible Party shall assist in the transfer of rights for the latter patent applications and shall provide all information necessary to file and prosecute such patent applications.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The Responsible Party shall not abandon part or whole of any of the patents or patent applications without having first consulted the other party, which shall have the right to further pursue any patents or patent applications which the responsible party wishes to abandon, or parts thereof, in its own name and at its own expense.
		

		
			 
		

		
			All out-of-pocket costs made in relation to joint patent applications and patents shall be shared equally by Janssen and Medisorb. A statement of costs shall be made up on a quarterly basis and invoiced to the other party.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Medisorb shall grant to Janssen an exclusive fully-paid up royalty free license with the right to sublicense to make, have made, use and sell under any such patents or patent applications for the duration of the patents, any continuations, continuations in part, divisions, patents of addition, reissues, renewals or extensions thereof or any supplementary protection  certificates granted with respect thereto, in respect of any claims concerning the application of Risperidone or any chemical analogues of Risperidone with similar physiological activity. However, nothing contained in this paragraph shall obviate Janssen's obligation to pay royalties under Section 3 hereof with respect to any Products developed hereunder.

			(6) Patent Infringement
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a) In the event that either party becomes aware that any third party is infringing any patents included within the Patents in any country or countries, the party becoming aware of such infringement shall promptly give notice of such infringement to the other party. Any possible action against such alleged infringement of the Patents will be carried out by either or both of the parties in accordance with the provisions specified hereinafter in paragraphs (b), (c), (d) and (e).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b) Whenever it would concern a patent or patent application falling within the definition of Patents and of which Medisorb retains full title and ownership pursuant to Article 5 a), Medisorb shall use all reasonable efforts to take action against such infringement in its own name, at its own expense and on its own behalf.
		

		
			 
		

		
			If Medisorb fails to take action against such infringement, or if Medisorb does not use reasonable efforts in carrying out such action after commencement thereof, within thirty (30) days after the notice referred to in paragraph (a) above or after having become aware of such infringement, Janssen shall be entitled at its own discretion and at its own expense, to take immediate action against such infringement in its own name, at its own expense and on its own behalf. If Janssen commences or assumes such action, Janssen may credit [                             ] of any royalty otherwise due to Medisorb for sales in such country or countries against the amount of the expenses and costs of such action, including without limitation, attorney fees actually incurred by Janssen.  The amount of expenses so deducted shall be paid to Medisorb out of the recoveries, if any, received by Janssen as a result of such action.  Except for such repayment of royalties deducted, Janssen shall be entitled to retain all recoveries therefrom.
		

		
			 
		

		
			In no event shall Medisorb settle with such infringing third party in the Field without the prior written consent of Janssen.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c) Whenever it would concern a patent or patent application falling within the definition of Patents and of which Janssen retains full title and ownership pursuant to Article 5 B), Janssen shall have the right but not the obligation to take action against such infringement in its own name, at its own cost and on its own behalf.

			in paragraph (a) above or after having become aware of such infringement, Medisorb shall be entitled at its own discretion and at its own expense, to take action against such infringement. Medisorb shall be entitled to retain all recoveries, if any, therefrom.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d) Whenever it would concern a patent or patent application falling within the definition of Patents and of which Janssen and Medisorb jointly retain full title and ownership pursuant to Article 5 (c), and whenever in such case the infringing product would be a drug product falling within the definition of the Field, Janssen shall have the right but not the obligation to take action against such infringement in its own name, at its own cost and on its own behalf. If Janssen fails to take action against such infringement, or if Janssen does not use reasonable efforts in carrying out such action after commencement thereof, within thirty (30) days after the notice referred to in paragraph (a) above or after having become aware of such infringement, Medisorb shall be entitled at its own discretion and at its own expense, to take action against such infringement, it being understood that Janssen will have a continuing right to take over any such action at its own expense and shall pay to Medisorb from any recoveries Janssen receives (i) Medisorb's expenses and (ii) from any sums remaining after deduction of Medisorb's and Janssen's expenses, an amount proportionate to Medisorb's expenses in relation to Janssen's expenses.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Whenever it would concern a patent or patent application falling within the definition of Patents and of which Janssen and Medisorb jointly retain full title and ownership pursuant to Article 5 (c), and whenever in such case the infringing product would be a drug product falling outside the definition of the Field, Medisorb shall have the right but not the obligation to take action against such infringement in its own name, at its own cost and on its own behalf.  If Medisorb fails to take action against such infringement, or if Medisorb does not use reasonable efforts in carrying out such action after commencement thereof, within thirty (30) days after the notice referred to in paragraph (a) above or after having become aware of such infringement, Janssen shall be entitled at its own discretion and at its own expense, to take action against such infringement, it being understood that Medisorb will have a continuing right to take over any such action at its own expense.  If Janssen commences or assumes such action, Janssen may credit [                 ]of any royalty otherwise payable to Medisorb payable hereunder against the amount of the expenses and costs of such action, including without limitation, attorney fees actually incurred by Janssen. The amount of expenses so deducted shall be paid to Medisorb out of the recoveries, if any, received by Janssen as a result of such action. Except for such repayment of royalties deducted, Janssen shall be entitled to retain all recoveries therefrom.

			(e) Each party agrees to cooperate reasonably with the other party in such litigation, including making available to the other party records, information, and evidence relevant to the infringement of the Patent.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(7) Third Party Intellectual Property Rights
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a) Medisorb warrants that to the best of its current knowledge and belief the Products to be developed hereunder will not infringe the patent rights of any third party.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b) In the event that the manufacture, use or sale of the Product would constitute an infringement of the rights of a third party in a country because of the use of the Patents or Medisorb's know how, each party shall, as soon as it becomes aware of the same, notify the other thereof in writing, giving in the same notice full details known to it of the rights of such third party and the extent of any alleged infringement.  The parties shall after receipt of such notice meet to discuss the situation, and, to the extent necessary attempt to agree on a course of action in order to permit Janssen to practice the license granted hereunder.  Such course of action may include:  (a) modifying the Product or its manufacture so as to be noninfringing; (b) obtaining an appropriate license from such third party; or (c) fight the claimor suit.  In the event that within a short period of time, the parties fail to agree on an appropriate course of action Janssen may decide upon the course of action in the interest of the further development, manufacturing or commercialization of the Product.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c) In the event that the parties cannot agree on modifying the Product or in the case that such modification would not be economically viable or regulatorily feasible, Janssen, whenever it relates to know how, whether patented or not, owned by Janssen in accordance with the provisions of Article 5 (b) and (c), or Medisorb, whenever it relates to know how, whether patented or not, owned by Medisorb in accordance with the provisions of Article 5 (a), will have the right to negotiate with such third party for such license.  Both parties hereto will in any event in good faith consult with each other with respect to such negotiations and the party negotiating such license as indicated above, will make every effort to minimize the amount of license fees and royalties payable thereunder.  In no event shall either party as a result of such settlement, grant a sublicense or cross license to the third party to settle the suit, without the prior written approval of the other party.  In the event that such negotiations result in a consummated agreement, any license fee and/or royalties to be paid thereunder shall be paid by the party responsible for the negotiations as indicated above, [                           ] of any license fees or royalties paid by Janssen under such license will be creditable against royalties due to Medisorb with respect to such country or countries.

			(d) In the event that either or both parties would further to such notification under Paragraph 7 (b) decide to defend such suit or claim in which a third party alleges that the manufacture, use or selling of the Product infringes said third party's patent in a country, Janssen shall have the right to apply [                              ] of the royalties due to Medisorb on the sales of the allegedly infringing Product against its litigation expenses.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(8) Term:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement and the term of the license granted to Janssen hereunder shall commence on the date first written above and shall expire (i) upon expiration of the last to expire Patent in such country or (ii) fifteen (15) years after the date of the first commercial sale of Product in such country, whichever is later; provided, that in no event shall the license granted hereunder expire later than the twentieth anniversary of the first commercial sale of Product in any country with the exception of the following countries where the fifteen (15) year minimum shall pertain regardless: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain and the United Kingdom. After expiration of the license granted to Janssen hereunder, Janssen shall retain a fully paid-up non-exclusive license to manufacture, use and sell Products in the Field in the Territory.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b) Medisorb may convert the exclusive license granted under this Agreement to non-exclusive if Janssen does not maintain the following minimum annual royalty payments to Medisorb:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i) With respect to the entire Territory, excluding Japan, the minimum royalty obligation will first apply to the twelve month period following the anniversary of the end of the month in which the Product was launched in the third major country. For the purpose of this Article only, major country shall mean France, Germany, United Kingdom or Italy. During the first twelve month period that such minimum royalty obligation is applicable, the minimum royalty amount to be paid by Janssen will be calculated by multiplying the applicable royalty rate by [       ] percent of the actual aggregate net sales of other [          ] products during such twelve month period in the three major countries referred to above.
		

		
			 
		

		
			As from the subsequent twelve month period the minimum annual royalty amount to be paid by Janssen will be calculated by multiplying the applicable royalty rate by [  ]% of the aggregate net sales of other [                  ] products during such period in all countries where Product has been launched and marketed for a period of minimally twelve months prior to the actual reference twelve month period; and

			(ii) In Japan the minimum royalty obligation will be first applied to the twelve month period following the anniversary of the end of the month in which the Product was launched.  The minimum annual royalty amount to be paid by Janssen will be calculated by multiplying the applicable royalty  rate by an amount representing [  ]% of the aggregate net sales of other [       ] products in Japan during such period.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Janssen shall have the right to make up any shortfall in minimum royalty payments from Product sales, both in Japan and in the rest of the Territory provided, such  make-up payment is made at the same time and in the same manner as required for the underlying minimum royalty obligation.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Janssen may elect to have its exclusive rights converted into non-exclusive rights on a country by country basis.  As a consequence thereof, such country's other [                ] products sales will no longer be taken into account for calculating the above minimum royalty obligation.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c) In the event that either party shall enter or be put into voluntary or compulsory liquidation or have a receiver appointed or default in the observance or performance of its obligations under this Agreement and shall fail to remedy such default within ninety (90) days after the delivery of written notice from the other party, the other party shall be entitled upon giving written notice to terminate this Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d) Janssen may terminate this Agreement without cause upon 30 days prior written notice. Thereafter, Janssen shall have no further rights or privileges with respect to the use of Medisorb Technology in Products and Medisorb shall be under no further obligation of non-competition or exclusive dealing.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e) Any early termination of the Agreement shall be without prejudice to the rights of either party against the other accrued under this Agreement prior to termination.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f) Upon any termination of this Agreement, any remaining inventory of Product may be sold, provided all royalties otherwise due hereunder are paid with respect to such sales.

			(b) Except as may be otherwise provided herein, the confidentiality obligations as set out in this Section shall continue so long as this Agreement remains in force and thereafter for a period of seven (7) years.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c) Janssen shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to abide by the obligations of confidentiality with respect to unpublished information within the Patents and Technical Information.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d) Any confidential information relating to the subject matter of this Agreement imparted to the other party prior to the execution of this Agreement shall be considered to fall under the terms of this Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(10) Disclaimer of Warranty: Medisorb makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, with respect to the Medisorb Patents and Technical Information licensed to Janssen hereunder, including without limitation any warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(11) Liability
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a) Janssen agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Medisorb from and against any liability, loss, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) Medisorb may suffer as the result of claims, demands, costs or judgments which may be made or instituted against Medisorb by reason of personal injury or damage to property arising out or caused by Janssen's promotion, use and sale of the Product, except where such liabilities claims, demands, costs or judgments are caused by Medisorb's  failure to provide Janssen with any information as specified in Section 12 (c) and Article 13.  Medisorb will notify Janssen as soon as it becomes aware of any such claim or action and agrees to give reasonable assistance in the investigation and defense of such claim or action it being understood that it shall allow Janssen to control the disposition of the same.

			(c) In no event shall either party be liable for loss of profits, loss of goodwill or any consequential or incidental damages of any kind of the other party.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(12) Product Information and Adverse Drug Events
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a) As Janssen has superior knowledge of the end-use applications to which Products licensed hereunder will be put, Janssen is responsible for providing third parties with adequate information as to the medical profile of such Products. Janssen will provide Medisorb with copies of the IPID (International Product Information Document) and the IPPI (International Patient Package Insert), which are all part of the IRF for the Product. For the purpose of this Agreement IPID refers to the document that summarizes all medically relevant features of the Product, including the instructions for use meant to inform the medical profession, whereas the IPPI is a patient-oriented document, based upon the IPID that summarizes all relevant information on the Product in lay language. Janssen will keep Medisorb informed of any revisions or amendments in the IPID and IPPI of the Product.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b) Medisorb does not claim the expertise to judge whether Product(s) will perform acceptably in Janssen's application(s). Janssen is the sole judge as to whether Product(s) will perform acceptably in Janssen's application(s). Janssen represents and warrants on an on-going basis during the term of this agreement that it has the capability to assess the suitability of Product(s) in Janssen's application(s) and agrees to conduct adequate testing to confirm the safety and efficacy of Products prior to commercialization.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c) Medisorb will provide to Janssen promptly after its discovery by Medisorb, any information in its possession which indicates adverse effects in humans associated with the Products, including the bioabsorbable polymeric components thereof, licensed hereunder. For the purpose of this Agreement "adverse event" shall mean an experience which is noxious and unintended and which occurs at doses normally used in man for the prophylaxis, diagnosis or therapy of a disease or for the modification of a physiological function and any report of an overdose.

Medisorb will authorize Janssen at its request to cross-reference any Medisorb Drug Master Files relating to the Medisorb Polymers.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(14) Force Majeure:  Neither party shall be liable for its failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder if such failure is occasioned by a contingency beyond its reasonable control including, but not limited to, occurrences such as strikes or other labor disturbances, lock out, riot, war, default by a common carrier, fire, flood, storm, earthquake, other acts of God, inability to obtain raw materials, failure of plant facilities or government regulation, act or failure to act. Each party shall notify the other immediately upon occurrence or cessation of any such contingencies. If such contingency continues unabated for at least 180 consecutive days, either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without further obligation beyond those actually incurred prior to such termination.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(15) Press Communications:  Neither party shall originate any publicity, news release or public announcement, written or oral relating to this Agreement, including its existence, without the prior written approval of the other party.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(16) Notices:  Any legal notice required or permitted hereunder shall be considered properly given if in writing and sent by first class mail, certified mail or by telefacsimile to the party being notified at the respective address of such party as follows:
