If JAH, or its Sublicensee or Affiliate, undertakes to sell a Product together with another product for a single price (i) that consists of a Product combined with an another pharmaceutical product (i.e., whether or not other active pharmaceutical ingredients are formulated as a single prescription), or (ii) that consists of a Product combined with a Nutraceutical, in either case, for purposes of calculating Net Sales for determining royalties due to Napo, the Product shall be deemed to be have been sold for an amount equal to the following:

 

(X divided by Y) multiplied by Z

 

(X divided by Y) multiplied by Z where X is the average sales price during the applicable reporting period generally achieved for the Product in the country in which such sale or other disposal occurred when the Product is sold alone and not with other pharmaceutical products; Y is the sum of the average sales prices of the component products during the applicable reporting period generally achieved in that country when sold alone (including the Product) included in the combination of products that is sold for the single price; and Z equals the single price at which the combination of products represented in Y was actually sold.

 

An example of the foregoing calculation is set forth, for illustrative purposes, on Appendix 1.37.

5.1                               License Fee.  In consideration of the development work conducted by Napo prior to the Effective Date with respect to the Napo Technology and Napo IP, and in consideration of the Napo Supplies, JAH shall pay to Napo a one-time, non-refundable license fee in an amount equal to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), less the fee of One Hundred Thousand Dollars that JAH already paid to Napo for the option to take this License (the “License Fee”). JAH shall remit the License Fee after JAH has first achieved a benchmark in Net Sales, which cumulatively exceeds $2,000,000, of one or more Products in the Territory.

11

 

used as a treatment.  No milestone payment will be due for subsequent approvals where the subsequent approval is for a Product that is a combination of CRO-Products and/or Non-CRO-Products previously approved by FDA/CVM for any indication.

 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5.2 and 5.3, in the event that JAH consummates an IPO (as defined above) while Napo is a major shareholder of JAH, JAH shall thereafter have no further obligation to pay Napo any milestone payments. For clarification, the License Fee defined above in Section 5.1 is not considered a milestone payment and shall remain payable to Napo.

 

5.4                               Royalty Payments to Napo.  Until the expiration of the Royalty Term (as defined in Section 5.7 below), and except as set forth in this Section, JAH shall also pay to Napo, within thirty (30) days after the end of each Calendar Quarter:

 

5.4.1                     an eight percent (8%) royalty on annual Net Sales of all CRO-Products in the Territory (based upon the Net Sales of Product(s) still subject to royalties on a Product-by-Product, country-by-country, basis as set forth in Section 5.6 below), cumulatively, up to $30,000,000, and, then, on annual Net Sales of all CRO-Products in the Territory, cumulatively, of $30,000,000 or more, a royalty of ten percent (10%).  However, in the event that, at any time prior to December 31, 2015, JAH consummates a firmly underwritten initial public offering of its common stock while Napo is a major shareholder of JAH, from which the net proceeds to JAH are at least ten million dollars ($10,000,000) (“IPO”), the royalties on Net Sales shall be reduced; and, thereafter,  for the duration of the Royalty Term, JAH shall pay to Napo, within thirty (30) days after the end of each Calendar Quarter, a two percent (2%) royalty on annual Net Sales of all Products that are pharmaceuticals approved by the FDA/CVM or the equivalent regulatory agency in another country in the Territory (or are combined with approved pharmaceuticals); and, a one percent (1%) royalty on annual Net Sales of all Products that are Nutraceuticals (or are combined with Nutraceuticals). The foregoing reduced royalties shall be based upon the Net Sales of Product(s) which are then-still subject to royalties on a Product-by-Product, country-by-country, basis as set forth in Section 5.6 below.

 

5.4.2                     a two percent (2%) royalty on annual Net Sales of all pharmaceutical Non-CRO-Products approved by a Regulatory Authority in the Territory (based upon the Net Sales of Product(s) still subject to royalties on a Product-by-Product, country-by-country, basis as set forth in Section 5.6 below); and, a one percent (1%) royalty on annual Net Sales of all Nutraceutical Non-CRO-Products in the Territory (based upon the Net Sales of Product(s) still subject to royalties on a Product-by-Product, country-by-country, basis as set forth in Section 5.6 below). However, in the event that, at any time prior to December 31, 2015, JAH consummates an IPO, there shall be no further royalties due to Napo on Net Sales of any Non-CRO-Products for the duration of the Royalty Term.

 

5.5                               Sales Royalty Reductions.  If JAH, in its reasonable business judgment, determines that it is desirable to obtain a license or other rights to any Blocking Patents in order to develop or commercialize a Product in any given country, JAH shall notify Napo to such effect. For purposes of this Section 5.5, “Blocking Patent” means any patent issued to a third party that might present a commercial obstacle to the development, manufacture, use or sale of such Product in a particular country.

 

5.5.1                     Upon execution of a final agreement with such third party, JAH shall provide an executed copy to Napo. The documented costs paid to such third party (including royalties upfront, initial, milestone and periodic payments, court awarded damages and settlement payments) associated with obtaining such license or other rights shall be shared equally by the Parties in the following manner: all costs shall be paid by JAH to such third party, provided that fifty percent (50%) of such costs shall be reimbursed to JAH by crediting at any one time (until such time as JAH has recovered such fifty percent (50%) of such costs) such costs against up to twenty-five percent (25%) of any sales royalty payments due pursuant to Section 5.4;

 

12

 

and such credit shall be made only on a country-by-country and Product-by-Product basis for the Net Sales of Products which are covered by such third party’s Blocking Patents and the related royalties payable under Section 5.4; and JAH may carry forward any unreimbursed amount to be credited against future payments until the full fifty percent (50%) of such costs (including royalties upfront, initial, milestone and periodic payments, court awarded damages and settlement payments) paid by JAH have been fully recaptured by JAH.

 

5.5.2                     For clarification, the sales royalty reductions specified in Section 5.5.1 shall apply only to payments made to third parties that are not Affiliates or Sublicensees of JAH for the purpose of acquiring rights to the Blocking Patents. Such sales royalty reductions shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the sales royalties due under Section 5.4 during any one Calendar Quarter related to the sales of the Product in that given country, and any excess sales royalty reductions shall be carried over to the succeeding Calendar Quarters until the sales royalty reductions are taken to allow JAH to recover in full fifty percent (50%) of such costs. Such sales royalty reductions shall not be applied retroactively and shall be applied only on a going forward basis against future sales royalties to be paid to Napo on a country-by-country and Product-by-Product basis.

 

5.5.3                     If Napo disagrees with JAH’s assessment in Section 5.5, regarding whether a third party patent is a Blocking Patent, the Parties shall obtain an opinion of independent patent counsel reasonably acceptable to both Parties to make such determination, and such opinion shall be binding on both Parties. In the event that such opinion indicates that there is a Blocking Patent, then the Parties shall immediately proceed in the manner provided in Section 5.5.1.  The Party making the incorrect assessment shall be solely responsible for the fees of such independent patent counsel incurred in connection with this Section 5.5.3.

 

5.6                               Obligation to Pay Royalties.  The obligation to pay royalties to Napo under this Section 5 is imposed only once with respect to the same unit of Product regardless of the number of Valid Claims pertaining thereto. Payments due under this Section 5 shall be deemed to accrue when sale of Products is recognized by JAH in a manner consistent with GAAP.

 

5.7                               Royalty Term.

 

5.7.1                     Napo’s right to receive royalties under Section 5.4 shall expire on a country-by-country and Product-by-Product basis upon the later of (i) ten (10) Calendar Years from the date of First Commercial Sale of a Product in such country on an animal by animal basis and (ii) the first date on which there is no longer (A) a Licensed Patent Right that includes at least one Valid Claim that covers the use, manufacture or sale of such Product or (B) any data exclusivity conferred by the applicable Regulatory Authority, with respect to such Product in such country, and, in the instance of either (ii)(A) or (ii)(B), a competitive product has been introduced into the market in such country (such period, the “Royalty Term”).

 

5.7.2                     Upon expiration of the last Valid Claim that covers a Product in any given country, the royalty rate on Net Sales of such Product in that country as calculated by Section 5.4 shall be decreased by twenty-five percent (25%) until the end of the Royalty Term for such Product. The royalty paid pursuant to this section is in recognition of the value of the Know-how licensed from Napo to JAH.

 

Upon expiration of each such Royalty Term, on a country-by-country and Product-by-Product basis, the licenses set forth in Section 2 shall be fully paid up and JAH shall have perpetual licenses with respect to such Products in such countries.

 

5.8                               Payments and Financial Reports.

 

5.8.1                     License Fee and Milestone Payments: The payment to be made by JAH to Napo

 

13

 

pursuant to Section 5.1 shall be made within thirty (30) days after JAH first recognizes, according to GAAP, cumulative Net Sales, exceeding $2,000,000, of one or more of its Products in the Territory. JAH shall promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days) following the occurrence of any event triggering a milestone payment under Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 above, notify Napo in writing of such occurrence, and, within ten (10) days thereafter, pay the triggered License Fee or milestone payment, as the case may be.

 

5.8.2                     Royalty Payments and Reports: Royalty payments and reports for the sale of Product(s) shall be calculated and reported for each Calendar Quarter after the First Commercial Sale. Each payment of royalties, pursuant to Section 5.4, shall be accompanied by a report of Net Sales of Product(s) in sufficient detail to permit confirmation of the accuracy of the royalty payment made, including, without limitation and on a country-by-country basis, the Net Sales of Product(s) in U.S. Dollars, the deductions pursuant to the definition of Net Sales, the applicable royalty rate, the royalties payable in U.S. Dollars, the method used to calculate the royalty, the taxes withheld, the exchange rates used, and the payment due Napo (“Quarterly Royalty Report”). All such Quarterly Royalty Reports shall be treated as Confidential Information of JAH pursuant to Section 12 below.

 

5.9                               Exchange Rate, Manner and Place of Payments. All fees payable to Napo under this Section 5 are due on the dates specified and shall be payable in U.S. Dollars. The calculation of royalties payable on Net Sales outside the United States shall be converted to U.S. Dollars, using either (i) the quarterly conversion rate for each foreign currency of the country in which the Net Sales are made calculated as the average of the conversion rate for such currency as published in the Exchange Rate table of The Wall Street Journal (Eastern edition) for the first business day of each month of the Calendar Year for which royalties are payable; or (ii) such other currency calculation method consistently used by JAH, or its Affiliate or Sublicensee in such country.  All payments owed under this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer to a bank and account designated in writing by Napo, unless otherwise specified in writing by Napo.

 

5.10                        Taxes.  Napo shall be responsible for the payment of any levies or taxes demanded by any governmental authorities resulting from payments received by Napo under this Agreement. In the event that JAH is required to withhold any tax and to pay such tax to the tax or revenue authorities regarding any payment to Napo due to the applicable laws, such amount shall be deducted from the payment to be made by JAH to Napo, and JAH shall pay Napo the amount that would have been otherwise payable under this Agreement, less such deductions. If JAH is required to withhold any tax in any country (i) JAH shall pay such tax in the name of Napo, and (ii) JAH shall provide appropriate documents for Napo to use in claiming the foreign tax credit for such taxes paid or withholding. Each Party agrees to reasonably cooperate with the other Party in claiming exemptions from such deductions or withholdings under any agreement or treaty from time to time in effect. JAH shall furnish to Napo written evidence of all such withholding tax as paid to the tax or revenue authorities. For avoidance of doubt, any such withholding taxes shall not be used as a deduction for calculating the Net Sales.

 

5.11                        Late Payment Charge. In the event that any payment, including the license fee, royalty or milestone payments, due hereunder is not made when due, the payment shall accrue interest from the date due at the annual rate of two percent (2%) over the prime rate of interest reported in The Wall Street Journal (Eastern edition) for the date such amount was due; provided, however, that in no event shall such rate exceed the then-current maximum legal annual interest rate for the State of California. The payment of such interest shall not limit a Party from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of the delay of the payment; provided, however, that any late payment will not be considered a material breach of this Agreement unless such payment is more than three (3) months overdue.

 

5.12                        Prohibited Payments.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if JAH is prevented from paying any such royalty by virtue of the statutes, laws, codes or governmental regulations of the country from which the payment is to be made, then such royalty shall be paid

 

14

 

by depositing funds in the currency in which accrued, to Napo’s account in a bank acceptable to Napo in the country whose currency is involved.

 

5.13                        Payments in Equity.  JAH may, at its discretion, elect to remit the License Fee, and any milestone payments and/or royalties in the form of JAH common stock, the value of which shall be the fair market value of such common stock, as shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of JAH, on the date such common stock is issued; and, the Parties may, at that time, or at any time thereafter, negotiate a single, lump-sum payment representing the net present value of all anticipated future payments of License Fee, and any milestone payments and/or royalties.

 

5.14                        Effect of a Sale of Napo’s Assets.  At any time during the term of this Agreement, immediately upon consummation of the sale to a third party of all assets related to the use, production or exploitation of CRO-Products, any and all rights and licenses granted to JAH by Napo in this Agreement pertaining to the use, production or exploitation of CRO-Products, shall be deemed to be exclusive in the Field of Use, perpetual, fully paid-up, royalty-free and irrevocable, with the right to grant sublicenses.

 

6                   FINANCIAL REPORTS; AUDITS.

 

6.1                               Annual Reconciliation.  Within thirty (30) days following the last business day of each Calendar Year, JAH shall reconcile the aggregate royalty payments remitted to Napo quarterly on Net Sales during the immediately preceding Calendar Year with the royalties due Napo on Net Sales annually pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

 

6.2                               Audit Rights.  At the request and expense of Napo, JAH (and its Affiliates and Sublicensees, if applicable) shall permit an independent, certified public accountant appointed by Napo and reasonably acceptable to JAH, which is bound by a duty of confidentiality no less protective of JAH’s Confidential Information than Section 12 of this Agreement, during JAH’s regular business hours and upon no less than ten (10) business days written notice, to examine such records as may be necessary for the sole purpose of verifying the calculation and reporting of Net Sales, and the correctness of any royalty payment or other payment made or payable under this Agreement for any period within the current Calendar Year and the preceding two (2) Calendar Years; provided, however, Napo shall be permitted only one (1) such audit for a particular country or countries in any twelve (12) month period.  The accountant shall not disclose to Napo or any other person any information, except that such accountant may disclose to Napo the fact of a deficiency, the lack of a deficiency or the fact of any overpayment, and the degree thereof, including the dollar amount. All results of any such examination shall be promptly made available to JAH.

 

6.3                               Adjustments.  In the event that any reconciliation or audit reveals an overpayment or an underpayment in the amount of any payments that should have been paid by JAH to Napo, then the overpayment or underpayment amount shall be paid, in the case of an accounting reconciliation, within five (5) business days and in the case of an audit by Napo, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the final audit report, plus interest, in either case, at the annual rate of eight percent (8.0%) of any underpayment. In addition, notwithstanding the allocation of audit expenses to Napo in Section 6.2 above, if the underpayment is in excess of five percent (5.0%) of the amount that actually should have been paid for the records so audited, then JAH shall promptly reimburse Napo for the documented cost of such audit.

 

6.4                               Conclusive Determination.  Except in the case of circumstances which would have prevented an error or anomaly from being disclosed during an audit performed under this Section 6, such as fraud, misrepresentation or other willful misconduct or gross negligence to provide accurate information, upon the expiration of three (3) years following the end of any Calendar Year, the calculation of royalties payable with respect to such Calendar Year will be binding and conclusive

 

15

 

upon each Party and JAH will be released from any liability or accountability with respect to royalties for such Calendar Year.

 

7                   TITLE TO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

 

7.1                               Existing and Future Technology. Other than as explicitly set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as granting either Party any right or license to the other Party’s existing or future Intellectual Property Rights. However, the Parties understand and foresee that continued research and development pursuant to this Agreement or other agreements between the Parties may result in the creation of future Intellectual Property Rights having application within the Field of Use and outside the Field of Use. It is the intent of the Parties, as expressed in the definitions of Jaguar IP, Napo IP and Joint IP, for JAH to own or have an exclusive license to all Intellectual Property Rights developed pursuant to this Agreement that pertain to the Field of Use; and for Napo to have exclusive license to all intellectual property rights developed pursuant to this Agreement outside the Field of Use.

 

7.2                               Napo IP.  All Napo IP will be owned continuously and exclusively by Napo and shall be subject to the License granted hereunder. Subject to the licenses granted to JAH pursuant to Sections 2.1, and 2.2, and the terms of Sections 2.3 and 2.4, and to certain third party licenses outside the Field of Use, Napo has and shall retain all rights, title and interest in and to the Napo IP (including, without limitation, the Licensed Patents Rights set forth on Appendix 1.29).

 

7.3                               Jaguar IP.  JAH shall own all rights, title and interest in the Jaguar IP and Napo shall not have any ownership interest in Jaguar IP. JAH grants Napo and its Affiliates a non-exclusive, paid up, irrevocable, worldwide license to Jaguar IP outside the Field of Use.

 

7.4                               Joint IP.  JAH shall own all rights, title and interest in the Joint IP and Napo shall not have any ownership interest in Joint IP. To the extent that a Napo employee or agent or anyone else with an obligation to assign his or her rights in intellectual property to Napo has contributed to any Joint IP, then Napo shall, and hereby does, assign any right, title and interest in such intellectual property to JAH and shall take any necessary actions, including executing any documents, to perfect JAH’s ownership rights in same. JAH grants Napo and its Affiliates an exclusive, paid up, worldwide license to Joint IP outside the Field of Use.

 

7.5                               Regulatory Filings and Documents.  JAH and its Affiliates and Sublicensees have and shall retain all right, title and interest in and to any and all registration applications, registrations and other regulatory filings and approvals relating to Napo Technology and/or Product(s), filed pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation any INADs, NADAs, MUMS Waivers and Regulatory Approvals (the “Product Registration Documents”), except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement.

 

8                   PROSECUTION AND PROTECTION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

 

8.1                               Patent Filing and Prosecution.

 

8.1.1                     Napo IP.  Napo, either itself or its third party licensee, shall have responsibility for the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance and defense (for example in a reexamination, reissue, opposition, post grant review or inter partes review proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or foreign counterpart) of Patents within Napo IP throughout the Territory. To the extent requested by Napo and as necessary, JAH will assist and cooperate with Napo, or a third party licensee, in the preparation, prosecution, maintenance and defense of the Napo IP. To the extent reasonably practicable, Napo shall share copies of applications, patent office correspondence and patent office filings and permit JAH to offer comments on draft submissions. If, in the case of any issued patent within Napo IP, Napo plans to abandon such Patent, Napo shall notify JAH in writing at least thirty (30) days in

 

16

 

advance of the due date for making a payment or taking a routine administrative action (not including filing a substantive response in a post-grant proceeding in a patent office or court), and JAH may elect, upon written notice to Napo, to take such action on behalf of Napo or its third party licensee who has the right to take such action.

 

8.1.2                     Jaguar IP.  JAH shall be responsible, at its sole expense for the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance and defense (for example in a reexamination, reissue, opposition, post grant review or inter partes review proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or foreign counterpart) of all Patents included in Jaguar IP throughout the Territory. Unless and until there occurs a Change In Control of Napo, JAH shall provide Napo copies of applications, patent office correspondence and patent office submissions related to Jaguar IP generated pursuant to this Agreement and, to the extent necessary or practicable, provide Napo with an opportunity to comment on draft submissions and will take any comments into account. Upon JAH’s request, Napo shall cooperate with and assist JAH in the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance and defense of Patents within Jaguar IP.

 

8.1.3                     Joint IP.  JAH shall be responsible for the preparation, filing, prosecution, and maintenance and defense (for example in a reexamination, reissue, opposition, post grant review or inter partes review proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or foreign counterpart) of all Patents included in Joint IP throughout the Territory. JAH shall provide Napo copies of applications, patent office correspondence and patent office submissions related to Joint IP generated pursuant to this Agreement and, to the extent necessary or practicable, provide Napo with an opportunity to comment on draft submissions and will take any comments into account. Upon JAH’s request, Napo shall cooperate with and assist JAH in the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance and defense of Patents within Joint IP.

 

8.2                               Patent Enforcement.

 

8.2.1                     In the event that either Party becomes aware of any infringement, unauthorized use, misappropriation or ownership claim or threatened infringement or other such claim, including an ANDA or ANADA filing, in the Territory by a third party with respect to the Napo IP or Jaguar IP or Joint IP, such Party (the “Notifying Party”) will promptly advise the other Party of all the relevant facts and circumstances known by the Notifying Party in connection with the infringement, misappropriation or claim.

 

8.2.2                     Napo shall have the sole right and responsibility (as to JAH and subject to rights of Napo’s third party licensees) to enforce the Napo IP against any third party with respect to any such infringement, misappropriation or claim. Napo shall have the full right to make decisions regarding whether to enforce any Napo IP and shall have full control over the prosecution, maintenance and settlement of any enforcement actions at its own cost. All proceeds from any such enforcement action shall be allocated to Napo (subject to reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred by JAH as necessary, and if requested by Napo to institute and prosecute the enforcement action).

 

8.2.3                     JAH shall have the sole right and responsibility (as to Napo) to enforce the Jaguar IP and Joint IP against any third party with respect to any such infringement, misappropriation or claim. JAH shall have the full right to make decisions regarding whether to enforce any Jaguar IP and Joint IP and shall have full control over the prosecution, maintenance and settlement of any enforcement actions at its own cost. All proceeds from any such enforcement action shall be allocated to JAH (subject to reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred by Napo as necessary and if requested by JAH to institute and prosecute the enforcement action).

 

8.2.4                     If, with respect to Napo IP, Napo elects not to take any action to initiate enforcement for such alleged infringement or misappropriation, Napo shall notify JAH with its election and

 

17

 

JAH may, at its own expense, enforce any of the Intellectual Property Rights in Napo IP against such infringement or misappropriation, bring an action against any third party suspected of infringement or misappropriation of same and control the defense of any counterclaim or declaratory judgment action (or other action) relating thereto.  For clarity, this provision does not apply if a third party licensee of the Napo IP elects to take action against the suspected infringer for enforcement of Napo IP and JAH’s right to institute, prosecute, maintain and settle such an action is subject to rights of Napo’s third party licensees. Any recovery obtained as a result of such action shall be applied first to the documented legal fees and other costs and expenses actually incurred by JAH in connection with the action and those reasonably incurred by Napo as necessary for the filing and prosecution of the action on a pro-rata basis, and the remainder, after recovery of all such costs and expenses, shall be allocated to JAH.

 

8.3                               Patent Infringement.

 

8.3.1                     In the event that during the term of this Agreement a suit or action is brought against either Napo or JAH, or both of them, by a third party alleging that the development, manufacture, use or sale of the Napo Technology in the Field of Use and/or the Product(s) in the Field of Use in the Territory infringes upon any Intellectual Property Rights of such third party, the Party being so sued shall immediately give the other Party notice of same.

 

8.3.2                     Except for suits or actions covered by Napo’s indemnification obligation pursuant to Section 11.2 (which shall be handled as provided in Section 11), JAH shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend against such action, on behalf of JAH or both Parties.

 

8.4                               General.

 

8.4.1                     At the request and reasonable expense of the other Party, Napo and JAH will reasonably cooperate in the prosecution of any enforcement action brought by either Party against a suspected third party infringer or defense of any claims brought against the other Party pursuant to this Agreement and shall voluntarily join any such litigation if so required by law. Napo and JAH will execute all documents reasonably necessary for the relevant Party to prosecute and/or defend against such action, and shall provide documents and help with making contacts to witnesses that are, or were, their employees, consultants or otherwise connected to them, whose testimony, in the judgment of the attorneys handling the law suit (or Napo’s or JAH’s counsel in the event the proceedings will be brought only on the name of one Party), is necessary to allow such litigation to go forward. Each Party, in litigating any such infringement actions, shall keep the other Party reasonably informed as to the status of such actions. Each Party has the right to be represented by counsel of its choice at its own expense except for reasonable, necessary expenses reimbursable hereunder.

 

9                   WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS

 

9.1                               General. Each Party hereby represents and warrants that: (i) it has the full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and to convey the rights herein conveyed, and to perform the obligations as set forth in this Agreement; (ii) entering this Agreement and performance thereof shall not constitute a breach of any agreement, contract, understanding and/or obligation that it is currently bound by, the breach of which would have a material adverse impact on such Party’s ability to perform hereunder; and (iii) it has the financial capacity, as well as the necessary experience and expertise, to carry out all its obligations hereunder, and that in carrying out its undertakings and responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement, it shall obtain all necessary approvals and consents and shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations, licenses, permits, and approvals.

 

9.2                               Additional Napo Representations. As of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Napo represents, warrants and covenants that:

 

18

 

9.2.1                     The Napo Technology and Napo IP in the Field of Use are and shall remain solely owned or exclusively controlled by Napo (subject to the terms of this Agreement) through a valid, enforceable and fully paid license, during the term of this Agreement.

 

9.2.2                     It has not granted, and during the term of this Agreement, it shall not grant, any rights to the Napo Technology, Napo IP, Joint IP or the Jaguar IP that may derogate from the rights granted to JAH hereunder, and further that no third party has any rights to the Napo Technology, Napo IP, Joint IP or Jaguar IP that could be asserted against JAH or could prevent JAH from exercising its rights hereunder.

 

9.2.3                     Napo has not received any notice or other communication from any third party, including any Regulatory Authority or any other governmental authority, but not including an Office Action received during the course of patent prosecution, which contests the ownership, validity or enforceability of the Napo IP or any part thereof.

 

9.2.4                     There has been no ex parte or inter partes proceedings (such as oppositions, interferences, reexaminations, reissues, or nullity actions) known to Napo anywhere in the Territory, regarding any of the Licensed Patent Rights.

 

9.2.5                     Napo has obtained the assignments of all interests and all rights of any and all third parties (including but not limited to present or former employees) with respect to the Napo IP.

 

9.3                               Napo Covenant.  During the term of this Agreement, Napo agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall develop, manufacture or sell, or enter into an agreement, contract or arrangement to provide services (or to otherwise provide such services) to any third party that could be used to develop, manufacture or sell, a Product within the Field of Use in the Territory or any other product containing any Napo Technology for use within the Field of Use. This covenant shall be binding on any Napo Acquiror only with respect to those Intellectual Property Rights of Napo which are actually acquired by such Napo Acquiror.

 

9.4                               DISCLAIMER.  EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH ABOVE, (I) EACH PARTY HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS, SUCH AS THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND (II) ALL NAPO TECHNOLOGY, INFORMATION AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS PROVIDED BY EITHER PARTY HEREUNDER ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT WARRANTY.

 

10            LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

 

NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE EXERCISE OF ITS RIGHTS HEREUNDER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN PUT ON NOTICE OF SUCH DAMAGES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS SECTION 10 SHALL NOT APPLY TO THE PARTIES’ (I) RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS REGARDING CONFIDENTIALITY UNDER SECTION 12; AND (II) INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 11.

 

11            INDEMNIFICATION

 

11.1                        Indemnification by JAH. JAH shall defend, indemnify and hold Napo, its Affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, consultants, contractors and agents of each of them, harmless from and against any losses, costs, damages, liabilities, fees and expenses (including reasonable fees of attorneys and other professionals) arising out of any third party claim to the extent relating to (i) gross negligence or willful misconduct of JAH or its Affiliates (other than Napo) or

 

19

 

Sublicensees and their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants, contractors and agents, in performance of this Agreement; or (ii) any breach by JAH of any of its covenants, representations and warranties hereunder, or (iii) the manufacture, sale or use of the Product(s) (unless such claim is subject to indemnification by Napo pursuant to Section 11.2).

 

11.2                        Indemnification by Napo. Napo shall defend, indemnify and hold JAH and its Affiliates and Sublicensees, and the officers, directors, employees, consultants, contractors and agents of each of them, harmless from and against any losses, costs, damages, liabilities, fees and expenses (including reasonable fees of attorneys and other professionals) arising out of any third party claim to the extent relating to (i) gross negligence or willful misconduct of Napo or its Affiliates or its licensees (in either case, other than JAH) or its sublicensees and their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants, contractors and agents, in performance of this Agreement, or (ii) any breach by Napo of any of its covenants, representations and warranties hereunder.

 

11.3                        Notice of Indemnification. As soon as reasonably possible after an indemnified party becomes aware of any potential liability hereunder, such indemnified party shall deliver written notice to the indemnifying party, stating the nature of the potential liability; provided, however, that the failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent that the indemnifying party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. The indemnifying party shall have the right to assume the defense of any suit or claim related to the liability if it has assumed responsibility for the suit or claim in writing; provided, however, if in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party, such suit or claim involves an issue or matter which could have a materially adverse effect on the business, operations or assets of the indemnified party, the indemnified party may waive its rights to indemnity under this Agreement and control the defense or settlement thereof, but in no event shall any such waiver be construed as a waiver of any indemnification rights such indemnified party may have at law or in equity. In the defense of any claim or litigation, the indemnifying party shall not, except with the prior written consent of the other Party, enter into a settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such other Party a complete release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.

 

11.4                        Participation in Defense. If the indemnifying party defends the suit or claim, the indemnified Party may participate in (but not control) the defense thereof at its sole cost and expense.

 

11.5                        Complete Indemnification.  As the Parties intend complete indemnification, all costs and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses, actually incurred by an indemnified party in connection with enforcement of Sections 11.1 or 11.2 shall also be reimbursed by the indemnifying party.

 

12            CONFIDENTIALITY

 

12.1                        Confidentiality Obligations. Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement, each of JAH and Napo (each a “Recipient”) (a) shall hold the other Party’s (the “Discloser”) Confidential Information in strict confidence, (b) shall not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party and shall implement practices and procedures as necessary to prevent such disclosure, which steps shall include at least those taken by the Recipient to protect its own confidential information of like kind, and (c) shall use such Confidential Information only as expressly authorized by this Agreement unless the Parties shall have agreed otherwise in writing.  Both Parties agree that in order to ensure that each Party understands which information is deemed to be confidential, all Confidential Information will be in written form and clearly marked as “Confidential,” and if the Confidential Information is initially disclosed in oral or some other non-written form, it will be confirmed and summarized in writing and clearly marked as “Confidential” within thirty (30) days of disclosure. The Recipient shall hold such Confidential Information in confidence and shall treat such information in the same manner as it treats its own confidential information but not less than with a reasonable degree of care. The Recipient may disclose the Discloser’s Confidential Information to the Recipient’s Affiliates, Sublicensees, and

their respective directors, officers, employees, consultants, agents, subcontractors and/or any other person or entity acting on Recipient’s behalf, individually or collectively (collectively “Representatives”) who have a bona fide need to access the Confidential Information, but only to the extent reasonably necessary to exercise the Recipient’s rights and fulfill the Recipient’s obligations under this Agreement. Each Recipient (i) shall inform all those Representatives to whom Confidential Information is disclosed that such Confidential Information is, in fact, confidential and is not to be disclosed to third parties, (ii) shall obligate all Representatives in writing to abide by nondisclosure and nonuse obligations reasonably comparable to those set forth in this Agreement, and (iii) shall be responsible for, and indemnify the Discloser from and against, any noncompliance by its Representatives. In addition, the Recipient shall promptly notify the Discloser in writing of any unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Information.

 

12.2                        Exclusions.  The undertakings and obligations under this Section 12 shall not apply to any part of the Confidential Information of the Discloser which:

 

(i)             was known to the Recipient prior to disclosure by the Discloser;

 

(ii)          was generally available to the public prior to disclosure to the Recipient;

 

(iii)       is disclosed to Recipient by a third party who is not bound by any confidentiality obligation, having a legal right to make such disclosure;

 

(iv)      has become through no act or failure to act on the part of the Recipient public information or generally available to the public; or

 

(v)         was independently developed by Recipient without reference to or reliance upon the Confidential Information, as evidenced by reliable written records.

 

12.3                        Exceptions.  The obligations of this Section 12 shall not apply to Confidential Information that:

 

(i)             is submitted to a Regulatory Authority to facilitate the issuance of, or otherwise in connection with, correspondence and/or submissions filed for any Regulatory Approval of a Product, provided, that, reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information;

 

(ii)          is provided by the Recipient to third parties under confidentiality agreements having provisions at least as stringent as those in this Agreement, for consulting, manufacturing development, manufacturing, external testing and marketing research with respect to any of the subject matter of this Agreement; and, with respect to JAH, to third parties who are actual or potential Sublicensees or other development/marketing partners of JAH;

 

(iii)       is provided by the Recipient to actual or prospective investors, or to a Party’s accountants, attorneys and other professional advisors, and in the case of disclosure to such prospective investors, accountants, attorneys and advisors, in each such case, only under confidentiality terms having provisions at least as stringent as those in this Section 12;

 

(iv)      is otherwise required to be disclosed in compliance with Applicable Laws or regulations (including, without limitation and for the avoidance of doubt, the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or any other stock exchange on which securities issued by a Party are traded) or order by a court or other governmental authority having competent jurisdiction; provided, that, if a Recipient is required to make any such disclosure of a Discloser’s Confidential Information, the Recipient will give reasonable advance written notice to the Discloser of such disclosure requirement and, except to the extent inappropriate in the case of patent applications, will use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information required to be disclosed; or

 

21

 

(v)         is submitted to a patent-granting government authority/agency in connection with the Patents related to a Product, provided, that, reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information.

 

12.4                        Injunction.  JAH and Napo acknowledge that the respective Confidential Information of the other Party is of special and unique significance to each of them and that any unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential Information could cause irreparable harm and significant injury to the Discloser that may be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge that money damages are an inadequate remedy for a breach of this Section 12, and that a Party shall be entitled to specific performance or injunctive relief against the breach of any provision hereof, without posting any bond (unless such bond is required by statute and the statute mandating the bond does not permit such bond to be waived) and without showing actual damages. No right or remedy reserved to either Party is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy and each right or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any right or remedy existing at law or in equity or by statute.

 

12.5                        Survival Term.  The provisions relating to confidentiality in this Section 12 shall remain in effect during the term of this Agreement and for a period of ten (10) years after its termination.

 

13            PUBLICATION

 

The Parties acknowledge that scientific lead-time is a key element of the value of the Jaguar IP, Napo IP and/or Joint IP, and further agree that scientific publications must be strictly monitored to prevent any adverse effect from premature publication of results of the activities conducted hereunder. At least thirty (30) days prior to submission of any material related to the development of Jaguar IP, Napo IP and/or Joint IP for publication or presentation, the submitting Party shall provide to the other Party a draft of such material for its review and comment. Such other Party shall provide any comments to the submitting Party within twenty (20) days after receipt of such materials and the publishing Party shall consider such comments in good faith and shall respond reasonably regarding requested changes. No publication or presentation with respect to Jaguar IP, Napo IP and/or Joint IP and/or to development activities relating to Jaguar IP, Napo IP and/or Joint IP, in the Field of Use or outside the Field of Use, as the case may be, shall be made by either Party without prior written approval of the other Party, and unless and until any information determined by the non-publishing Party to be Confidential Information has been removed. If requested in writing by the non-publishing Party, the publishing Party shall withhold material from submission for publication or presentation for an additional thirty (30) days to allow for the filing of a patent application or the taking of such other measures as may be required to establish and preserve proprietary rights in the information in the material being submitted for publication or presentation.

 

Publications and presentations are permissible by either Party under those identified circumstances set for above in Section 12.3 (Exceptions to Confidentiality), to the extent applicable.

 

14            TERM AND TERMINATION

 

14.1                        Term. This Agreement shall be effective from the Effective Date and shall continue in full force and effect and shall terminate (i) on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis at the end of the Royalty Term set forth in Section 5.7 and (ii) in its entirety on the expiration of all Royalty Terms for all Products in all countries in the Territory, unless earlier terminated, in accordance with this Section 14.

 

14.2                        Termination for Cause. Without derogating from any other remedies that any Party may have under the terms of this Agreement or at law or in equity, each Party shall have the right, upon a thirty (30) day prior written notice, to terminate this Agreement forthwith upon the occurrence of any of the following:

 

22

 

14.2.1              The commission of a material breach by the other Party of its obligations hereunder, and such other Party’s failure to remedy such breach within ninety (90) days after being requested in writing to do so; or

 

14.2.2              The other Party’s liquidation or bankruptcy, whether voluntarily or otherwise, or if it makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, if such proceeding is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after the filing thereof;

 

14.3                        Termination by JAH without Cause. Notwithstanding the foregoing, JAH shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement without cause and without penalty or any compensation obligation at any time during the term of this Agreement by providing a ninety (90) days prior written notice to Napo.

 

14.4                        Accrued Obligations. Except as otherwise specified herein, the termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not relieve either Party of any obligations which shall have accrued prior to such termination, including the payments owed under Section 5.

 

14.5                        Effect of Termination.

 

14.5.1              Upon any termination of this Agreement (A) by Napo under Section 14.2, or by JAH under Section 14.3, in which case the costs and expenses incurred by either Party to execute on the following shall be paid by JAH, or (B) by JAH under Section 14.2, in which case the costs and expenses incurred by either Party to execute on the following shall be paid by Napo: (i) the License granted by Napo to JAH under the Agreement shall cease immediately; (ii) any unpaid license fee under Section 5.1 shall be paid and any other payments which had accrued or become payable prior to the date of termination shall survive termination of this Agreement and shall be paid; (iii) each Party shall return to the other Party within thirty (30) days of termination the other Party’s Confidential Information including any Confidential Information shared with Representatives pursuant to Section 12.1, or shall certify that, to such Party’s knowledge, any Confidential Information not returned to the Discloser has been destroyed; (iv) upon the payment of reasonable consideration to be negotiated, JAH shall transfer to Napo, ownership of all Product Registration Documents made or filed for the Product(s) in the Territory, if permitted by applicable laws and regulations; (v) all Sublicenses granted to Sublicensees by JAH  under this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect if permitted by the terms and conditions of the respective Sublicense agreements, and, if permitted under the terms and conditions of such Sublicense agreements, JAH will assign to Napo such Sublicense agreements; except that if said Sublicense agreement has terms which are not at least as favorable to Napo as are the terms of this Agreement for the applicable continuing business of such Sublicense, then such Sublicense will need to either be (i) modified to achieve such favorable terms, or (ii) terminated.

 

14.5.2              In the event of any termination or expiration of this Agreement, if such termination or expiration occurs after the First Commercial Sale of Product in the Territory, during the nine (9) month period following termination or expiration of this Agreement, JAH may sell its then-existing inventory of Products in the Territory and complete the manufacture of and dispose of any Products constituting work-in-progress then being manufactured, and will pay all amounts due to Napo hereunder with respect to any Net Sales of such inventory occurring during such nine (9) month period. Additionally, the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement will continue during such nine (9) months after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, to the extent applicable to such sales.

 

14.5.3              Following the expiration of the term of this Agreement with respect to a Product in any country in the Territory pursuant to Section 14.1, any and all rights and licenses granted to JAH by Napo in this Agreement shall be deemed to be non-exclusive, perpetual, fully paid-up and irrevocable, with the right to grant sublicenses, to continue to make, have made, market,

 

23

 

distribute and sell the Products in such country, using the Napo IP, Joint IP and the Jaguar IP in connection therewith.

All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement are and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code, licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined in Section 101(56) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Parties shall retain and may fully exercise all of their respective rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code. Upon the bankruptcy of any Party, the non-bankrupt Party shall further be entitled to a complete duplicate of, or complete access to, any such intellectual property, and such, if not already in its possession, shall be promptly delivered to the non-bankrupt Party, unless the bankrupt Party elects to continue, and continues, to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

15            DISPUTE RESOLUTION, GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

 

15.1                        Dispute Resolution.  Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination or validity thereof (hereinafter referred to as “Dispute”), shall be referred promptly for decision to a senior executive of each Party not involved in the Dispute. If no resolution is reached between such senior executives within thirty (30) days of the initiating request by one of the Parties, then the aggrieved Party shall be at liberty to proceed with legal or equitable action at such Party’s election. Consistent with the American Rule, each Party shall pay all of its own expenses in any legal or equitable action, including without limitation, its own attorneys’ fees, court costs, expert and consultant expenses.

 

15.2                        Governing Law.  This Agreement and the rights of the Parties shall be interpreted and governed by the laws of California without reference to its conflicts of law principles.

 

15.3                        Jurisdiction and Venue.  The Parties hereto hereby agree that all actions and proceedings relating directly or indirectly to such dispute shall be brought and maintained in any state or federal court located in San Francisco County, California. The Parties hereby consent to jurisdiction and venue in any such court in California.

16            GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

16.1                        Headings. The headings in this Agreement are intended solely for convenience or reference and shall be given no effect in the interpretation of this Agreement.

 

16.2                        Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement (including the appendices attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter otherwise set forth in this Agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements, dealings or writings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter set forth in this Agreement (including this Agreement as originally executed, which original version is hereby amended, superseded and replaced by the version signed by the Parties as of the Restatement Date).  No subsequent alteration, amendment change or addition to this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties hereto unless reduced to writing and signed by the respective authorized officers of the Parties.

 

16.3                        Counterparts and Facsimile Signatures.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement (and each amendment, modification and waiver in respect of it) by facsimile or other electronic transmission, if identified, legible and complete, will be regarded as an original signature and shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart of each such instrument.

 

16.4                        Assignment. Neither Party may assign this Agreement or its rights and/or obligations hereunder in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that either Party shall be entitled, at any time, to assign this Agreement or any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate of such Party or to a third party which acquires all or substantially all of that Party’s business related to this Agreement (which, for purposes of JAH, shall mean the assumption of the obligations of this Agreement, taken as a whole), whether by merger, sale of assets or otherwise, provided that the assignee shall assume performance of any and all financial liabilities hereunder of the assigning Party.

 

16.5                        Subcontracting.  JAH may subcontract any responsibility under this Agreement that it reasonably deems necessary or useful without obtaining the consent (written or otherwise) of Napo. Napo may not subcontract any responsibility under this Agreement unless it obtains JAH’s prior written consent. In any event, the subcontracting Party shall at all times remain primarily responsible and liable for all such activities.

 

16.6                        Waiver. No waiver of a breach or default hereunder shall be considered valid unless in writing and signed by the Party giving such waiver; and no such waiver shall be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default of the same or similar nature. No failure by any Party hereto to take any action against any breach of this Agreement or default by another Party hereto shall constitute a waiver of the former Party’s rights to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to take action against such breach or default or any subsequent breach or default by such other Party.

 

16.7                        Severability. Should any part or provision of this Agreement be held unenforceable or in conflict with the Applicable Laws of any applicable jurisdiction, the invalid or unenforceable part or provision shall, provided that it does not go to the essence of this Agreement, be replaced with a revision which accomplishes, to the extent possible, the original commercial purpose of such part or provision in a valid and enforceable manner, and the balance of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and binding upon the Parties hereto.

 

16.8                        Independent Contractors. This Agreement shall make neither JAH nor Napo the agent or legal representative of the other Party. Each Party shall be an independent contractor, not an

 

25

 

employee or partner of the other Party, and the manner in which each Party renders its services under this Agreement shall be within its sole discretion. Neither JAH nor Napo is granted any right or authority to assume or to create any obligation or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf of or in the name of the other, with regard to any manner or thing under this Agreement, unless otherwise specifically agreed upon in writing.

 

16.9                        Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further documents and instruments and do any other acts, from time to time, as may be reasonably necessary, to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

 

16.10                 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be responsible to the other Party for failure or delay in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement or for other non-performance hereof to the extent that such delay or non-performance is occasioned by a cause beyond the reasonable control and without fault or negligence of such Party, including, but not limited to earthquake, fire, flood, explosion, discontinuity in the supply of power, court order or governmental interference, acts of God, strike or other labor trouble, act of war or terrorism, and provided that such Party will inform the other Party as soon as is reasonably practicable, and that it will entirely perform its obligations immediately after the relevant cause has ceased its effect.

 

16.11                 Notices. Notice or other communication required or authorized to be given by any Party under this Agreement to the other Party shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered, sent by facsimile transmission or electronic mail, (with a copy by ordinary U.S. Mail in either case), or by registered or certified U.S. Mail with postage pre-paid, or dispatched by a nationally recognized private courier addressed to the other Party at the address set forth in the preamble of this Agreement, or such other address as shall be specified by the Party by notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 16.11.

 

16.12                 Interpretation; Singular; Plural; Use of Words.  The Preamble, Definitions, and Appendices hereto form an integral part of this Agreement. In the event of any discrepancy between the terms of this Agreement and any Appendix hereto, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. The definitions of the terms in this Agreement shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation” (regardless of whether it is actually written there (and drawing no implication from the actual inclusion of such phrase in some instances after such terms but not others)). The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise: (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document in this Agreement shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth in this Agreement); (b) any reference in this Agreement to any person shall be construed to include the person’s successors and assigns; (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision of this Agreement; and (d) all references in this Agreement to Recitals, Sections or Appendices shall be construed to refer to the recitals, sections and appendices of this Agreement.

ILLUSTRATION OF CALCULATION OF NET SALES FOR COMBINED PRODUCTS

 

If JAH, or its Sublicensee or Affiliate, undertakes to sell a Product together with another product for a single price (i) that consists of a Product combined with an another pharmaceutical product (i.e., whether or not other active pharmaceutical ingredients are formulated as a single prescription), or (ii) that consists of a Product combined with a Nutraceutical, in either case, for purposes of calculating Net Sales for determining royalties due to Napo, the Product shall be deemed to be have been sold for an amount equal to the following:

 

(X divided by Y) multiplied by Z, where W, X, Y and Z have the following values (W is defined for clarification purposes only).

 

W= $50 per unit, the average sales price generally achieved for another product in the country in which such sale occurred for the Calendar Quarter

 

X= $100 per unit, the average sales price generally achieved for the Product in the country in which such sale occurred for the Calendar Quarter

 

Y= $150, the sum of W and X, when W and X are each sold separately, during the Calendar Quarter in the country in which such sale occurred

 

Z= $130 the price of the combined product, W and X sold together as a single unit

 

EXAMPLE:

 

W= $50

 

X= $100

 

Y= $150

 

Z= $130

 

The imputed price of the Product shall be equal to:  (X/Y)*Z or ($100/$150)* $130 = $86.67

EMPLOYEE LEASING AND OVERHEAD ALLOCATION AGREEMENT

 

This EMPLOYEE LEASING AND OVERHEAD ALLOCATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated July 1, 2013, is made and entered into by and between Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Napo”), and Jaguar Animal Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“JAG”), with reference to the following facts:

 

1.                                      Napo has Licensed (the “License”) to JAG certain intellectual property and other rights of Napo related to the development and commercialization of crofelemer for animals (the “JAG Business”) in exchange certain other consideration as detailed in the License.

 

2.                                      Napo currently employs those individuals identified on Exhibit A, each of whom has been providing services in connection with the JAG Business prior to the License (the “Leased Employees”).  JAG desires to receive the benefit of the Leased Employees’ services and other overhead costs of Napo during the Transition Period (as defined below) pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

3.                                      Napo and JAG desire to enter into this Agreement in order to set forth the terms under which Napo will lease the Employees to JAG and be reimbursed for certain overhead costs identified on Exhibit A during the Transition Period.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.                                      Term; Transition Period.  The transition period (“Transition Period”) shall commence on the date hereof and shall terminate on February 28, 2014.  The term (“Term”) of this Agreement shall be for the Transition Period unless it is extended by mutual written agreement of the parties or earlier terminated pursuant to Paragraph 5 hereof.

 

2.                                      Description of Services.  During the Term:

 

(a)                                 Napo shall provide JAG with the Leased Employees to perform the same or substantially similar work for JAG with respect to the JAG Business as the Leased Employees were performing for Napo with respect to the JAG Business up through the date of the License;

 

(b)                                 JAG shall have the sole right to control and direct the Leased Employees as to the performance of their duties and the means by which such duties are performed; and

 

(c)                                  Other than to lease the Leased Employees to JAG, Napo shall not make any material changes in the terms and conditions of employment of the Leased Employees, including without limitation, in their salaries, wages, bonuses or employee benefits, except (i) in the ordinary course of business, (ii) as required by law or regulation, or (iii) with respect to which Napo has obtained the prior written consent of JAG, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

3.                                      Fees and Expenses.  Napo is providing Leased Employees to JAG at the rate of $65,811 per month equal to the dollar value of each of the following items: (i) such Leased Employee’s gross wages and/or salary owed by Napo during each calendar month during the 

 

 

Term (before any tax withholdings or other deductions) multiplied by the percentage of such Leased Employee’s total hours worked during such calendar month that consisted of services performed for or on behalf of JAG which the parties agree shall be the “approximate percentage of time to be spent rendering services to or for the benefit of JAG” as shown on Exhibit A (the “Applicable Percentage”) the “Employment Costs”), and (ii) $6,000 per month for overhead and office expenses.  JAG shall pay to Napo, in cash, $71,811 per month for the months of December 2013, January 2014 and February 2014.  The amounts recognized as Employment Costs for the months of July 1, 2013 to the end of November 2013 shall be borne by Napo.  Napo has received 4,000,000 shares of JAG common stock.

 

4.                                      Status of Employees and Responsibility for Taxes.  Napo is the employer of the Leased Employees and will be responsible for payment of federal, state, and local income, social security, unemployment, and other payroll taxes, employment taxes and other taxes for which Napo is responsible with respect to the Leased Employees, and shall withhold, file, and pay such taxes for each Leased Employee’s wages and other taxable compensation to the extent required by law.  Napo shall indemnify and hold JAG harmless for any and all tax liabilities that JAG may incur arising out of, relating to, or resulting from this Agreement.

 

5.                                      Termination.  Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated: (a) by either party upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other; or (b) by mutual agreement of Napo and JAG.  Expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the parties of any obligation accruing prior to such expiration or termination.

 

6.                                      No Agent Authority.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to treat either party as the other party’s partner, co-employer, joint employer, employee or agent, or to give either party the actual or apparent authority to bind the other party in any respect.

 

7.                                      Duties of JAG.  With respect to the Leased Employees, during the Term JAG shall:

(c)                                  provide the Leased Employees with any protective or safety equipment, as required to perform work by federal, state or local law, rule, regulation, ordinance, directive, or order;

 

2

(e)                                  maintain adequate personnel records and related employment documentation, including but not limited to records regarding all documents relating to any accident, injury, or illness that is, is claimed to be, or may be attributable to any Leased Employee’s work, and make all such records and documentation available to Napo upon request;

(g)                                 execute and complete any and all documents required to perform its obligations under this Agreement within a reasonable time; and

 

(h)                                 cooperate with Napo on employment matters related to the Leased Employees.

10.                               Ownership of New Technology.

 

(a)                                 New Technology.  Any and all (i) inventions (whether or not reduced to practice and whether or not patentable), (ii) works of authorship, (iii) trade secrets, know-how, confidential information (including but not limited to confidential ideas, research and development, technology, discoveries, methods, formulas, compositions, manufacturing processes, designs, specifications, clinical trial protocols, statistical analyses and other regulatory information, customer and supplier lists, pricing and cost information, and business and marketing plans and proposals) and all other proprietary information and data (including but not limited to technical and safety, efficacy and other clinical data) conceived, developed or reduced to practice by JAG or Napo, either jointly or individually, in whole or in part, after the date hereof and during the Term (collectively, “New Technology”) shall be owned by (i) Napo to the extent such New Technology is within the Napo Field of Use defined as XXXX                    and (ii) JAG to the extent such New Technology is outside the Napo Field of Use.  Each party shall disclose to the other party any New Technology promptly after it has been conceived, developed or reduced to practice.  For the purposes of this Section 10, all determinations of inventorship shall be made in accordance with United States patent law.  For no additional consideration, each party (the “Assignor”) hereby assigns to the other party (the “Assignee”) all of the Assignor’s right, title and interest, worldwide, in and to any New Technology (including without limitation all intellectual property rights associated therewith and all copies and tangible embodiments thereof, in whatever form or medium) consistent with the ownership allocation described above so that sole and exclusive ownership therein resides in Napo to the extent such New Technology is within the Napo Field of Use and in JAG to the extent such New Technology is outside the Napo Field of Use.  Assignor shall, at Assignee’s request and expense, execute documents and 

 

5

 

perform such acts as Assignee may deem necessary, to confirm in Assignee, all right, title and interest throughout the world, in and to any New Technology consistent with the ownership allocation set forth herein, and all patents, trademarks, copyrights and other applicable statutory protections thereon, and to enable and assist Assignee in procuring, maintaining, enforcing and defending patents, trademarks, copyrights and other statutory protections throughout the world in and to any such New Technology.  Each party shall cause each of its employees, contractors and consultants to execute and deliver an agreement assigning all of their respective right, title and interest in and to any New Technology consistent with the above ownership allocation so that sole and exclusive ownership therein resides in Napo to the extent such New Technology is within the Napo Field of Use and in JAG to the extent such New Technology is outside the Napo Field of Use.

 

11.                               Confidentiality.

 

(a)                                 Use of Confidential Information.  From time to time prior to the commencement of and during the Term, each party hereto has disclosed or may disclose its confidential information (e.g., information regarding a disclosing party’s business and operations, research and development activities, pre-clinical and clinical data, regulatory strategies and submissions, products, customers, employees, financial results, contractual relationships, etc.) to the other party.  In addition each party may, from time to time during the Term, obtain or have access to the other party’s confidential information.  As used herein, the term “confidential information” does not include information that (i) is in or comes into the public domain through no fault of the receiving party or any of its affiliates or their representatives, or (ii) is lawfully acquired without confidentiality obligations to the disclosing party from sources having the right to make such disclosure or (iii) was developed independently by the receiving party without use of any confidential information of the disclosing party.  Each party shall maintain (and cause its affiliates and subcontractors to maintain) the confidentiality of the other party’s confidential information and not to use or disclose such confidential information except as required to perform its obligations in accordance with this Agreement or as permitted hereby or by the disclosing party in writing.  If compelled to disclose any confidential information by judicial or administrative process or by requirement of law, the receiving party shall promptly notify the disclosing party in writing and, if legal protection is not obtained, may disclose only that portion of such information that is legally required to be disclosed as advised by counsel; provided that the receiving party shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.  Because of the unique nature of the confidential information, the parties understand and agree that the disclosing party will suffer irreparable harm in the event that a party which receives such disclosing party’s confidential information fails to comply with any of its obligations hereunder and that monetary damages will be inadequate to compensate disclosing party for such breach.  Accordingly, each party agrees that the disclosing party shall, in addition to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity, be entitled to seek injunctive relief to enforce the terms hereof.

 

(b)                                 Return of Confidential Information.  Upon termination of this Agreement, unless a party has a continuing right to use such confidential information pursuant to a license granted hereunder, upon request of the other party, each of the parties hereto agrees to return to the other all such confidential information of the other, or, at its option destroy such 

 

6

 

confidential information and, thereafter, certify immediately to the disclosing party that all such confidential information has been returned or destroyed.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their authorized representatives as of the day and year first above written.
