2

 

2.4                               Section 5.3.2 of the Agreement - Rest of World Royalty shall be deleted and replaced with the following:

 

5.3.2 (i)  Rest of World Royalty . During the applicable Royalty Period, subject to Section 5.3.2 (ii)     (iii),  (iv) and (v), AstraZeneca shall pay to Hutchison, [**] basis, royalties at a rate equal to (i) the rates outlined below (“ Base ROW Royalty ”)  plus (ii) to the extent set forth below, [**] of Net Sales in each Calendar Year (or portion thereof) of such Collaboration Product in the Field in the ROW Territory (“ Additional ROW Royalties ”):

 

(a)                   [**] of Net Sales in each Calendar Year (or portion thereof) for the portion of annual aggregate Net Sales of such Collaboration Product in the Field in the ROW Territory below or equal to [**] plus

 

(b)                   [**] of Net Sales in each Calendar Year (or portion thereof) for the portion of annual aggregate Net Sales of such Collaboration Product in the Field in the ROW Territory greater than [**] and less than or equal to [**]; plus

5.3.2 (ii) For clarity, in the event that the PRCC Phase III Costs are less than $50,000,000, then provided that (a) Hutchison has paid all the PRCC Phase III Costs and (b) no Additional PRCC Registrational Trials Funding is required, then the Additional ROW Royalties will continue to be paid and Hutchison shall have no obligation to provide further funding.

 

3

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties will negotiate in good faith the value of any data generated through Hutchison having funded the PRCC Phase III Clinical Trial which is then subsequently used by AstraZeneca or its Sublicensees for Development of the Collaboration Product in any other indication (other than PRCC) and to what extent this would justify paying Hutchison reduced Additional ROW Royalties.

 

2.                   To the extent that (a) the PRCC Phase III Clinical Trial does not meet its key end points and (b) further trials are required to secure a Regulatory Approval for commercialization of the Collaboration Product in the PRCC indication in the first Major Market (“Additional PRCC Registrational Trials”)  and (c) Hutchison and/or AstraZeneca elects to provide such funding, the Revised Additional ROW Royalties will be revised proportionately on the basis set out in Section 5.3.2(v).
