operation of law, by statute or otherwise, and both Parties specifically disclaim any and all

have liability or responsibility to the other Party for any such failure in the research and
development, Agency approval, manufacturing, marketing or sales efforts, except to the extent such
failure results from the Party’s willful misconduct or gross negligence.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

     8.1. Indemnification.

          (a) Acuity Indemnification. Acuity agrees to indemnify and hold forever harmless Pathogenics
and its Affiliates and each of their agents, directors, officers and employees from and against any
loss, damage, action, proceeding, expense, liability, physical or emotional injury or death, or
loss of service or consortium, including reasonable attorney’s fees (“Loss”) arising from or in
connection with (i) the research, development, manufacture, use, offer for sale, sale or
importation by Acuity or its Affiliates of Licensed, except for any Loss for which
Pathogenics has agreed to indemnify Acuity pursuant to Section 9.1(b) below; (ii) the breach or
inaccuracy of any representations, warranties or covenants made by Acuity in this Agreement; and
(iii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Acuity or its Affiliates or any of their
agents, directors officers or employees.

          (b) Pathogenics Indemnification. Pathogenics agrees to indemnify and hold forever harmless
Acuity and its Affiliates and each of their agents, directors, officers, and employees from and
against any Loss arising from or in connection with: (i) Pathogenics’ or its Affiliates’ research
and development activities in connection with any pharmaceutical product or the activities of any
Pathogenics personnel in connection with the research, development, manufacture, use, sale, storage
or handling of pharmaceutical products, except for any Loss for which Acuity has agreed to
indemnify Pathogenics pursuant to Section 9.1(a) above; and (ii) the breach or inaccuracy of any
representations, warranties or covenants made by Pathogenics in this Agreement, (iii) the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Pathogenics or its Affiliates or any of their agents,

     8.2. Procedure. A Party seeking indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly
notify the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) upon being notified or otherwise made aware of a
suit, action or claim; provided that failure to provide such notice shall not affect the obligation
of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is
materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall defend and control any proceedings,
and the Indemnified Party shall be permitted to participate at its own expense, unless there shall
be a conflict of interest which would prevent representation by joint counsel, in which event the
Indemnifying Party shall pay for the Indemnified Party’s separate counsel pursuant to Section 11.1
above. The Indemnifying Party may not settle the suit or otherwise consent to any judgment in such
suit without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). The Parties shall cooperate in the defense of any Third Party claim.

either Party prior to such termination (including without limitation Acuity’s obligation to pay all

and including the effective date of such termination), all of which shall survive such

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

     10.1. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall lose any rights hereunder or be liable to the other

act of God, or any other similar cause beyond the reasonable control of the defaulting Party,
provided that the Party claiming force majeure has exerted all reasonable efforts to avoid or
remedy such force majeure and given prompt notice to the other Party.

     10.3. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution.

          (a) This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, as such laws are
applied to contracts entered into and to be performed within such state, as though made and to be
fully performed therein without regard to conflicts of law principles thereof. The Parties agree
to submit to the personal jurisdiction in any Federal or State court of competent jurisdiction
seated in the State of Delaware, and waive any objection as to venue or inconvenience of forum.

          (b) The Parties shall initially attempt in good faith to resolve any significant controversy,
claim, allegation of a Default or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement (hereinafter
collectively referred to as a “Dispute”) through negotiations between senior executives of Acuity
and Pathogenics. If the Dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days (or such other period of
time mutually agreed upon by the Parties) of notice of the Dispute, then the Parties agree to
submit the Dispute to non-binding mediation on terms and procedures to be mutually agreed to for a
period of ninety (90) days. Any mediation proceedings shall be treated as settlement discussions
and therefore shall be confidential, and no mediator may testify for either Party in any later
proceeding relating to the dispute. No recording or transcript shall be made of the mediation
proceedings. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses of mediation, and the Parties shall
share equally the fees and expenses of the mediator.

          (c) If the Dispute is not resolved through negotiations or mediation as set forth above, then
either Party may commence litigation; provided, that this Section 10.3 shall not be construed to
prevent a Party from seeking injunctive relief without observing the requirements of Section
10.3(b).

     10.4. Non-waiver of Rights. Except as specifically provided for herein, the waiver from time
to time by any of the Parties of any of their rights or their failure to exercise any remedy shall
not operate or be construed as a continuing waiver of same or of any other of such Party’s rights
or remedies provided in this Agreement.

     10.5. No Agency. Neither Party shall by virtue of this Agreement have any power to bind the
other to any obligation nor shall this Agreement create any relationship of agency, partnership or
joint venture.

     10.6. Severability. If any term, covenant, or condition of this Agreement or the application
thereof to any Party or circumstance shall, to any extent, be held to be invalid or unenforceable,
then (i) subject to clause (ii) of this Section 13.6 the remainder of this Agreement, or the
application of such term, covenant or condition other than those as to which it is held invalid or
unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each term, covenant, or condition of this
Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law and (ii) the
Parties hereto covenant and agree to renegotiate any such term, covenant, or application thereof in
good faith in order to provide a reasonably acceptable alternative to the term, covenant, or
condition of this Agreement or the application thereof that is invalid or unenforceable.

     10.7. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the exhibits and schedules hereto as in
effect from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof, sets forth all the covenants,

Page 17 of 20

 

promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions, and understandings between the
Parties hereto in the scope of the collaboration, and supersedes and terminates all prior
agreements and understanding between the parties under this Agreement. 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.

     10.8. Assignment. No Party shall, without the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) of the other Party having been obtained, assign or transfer this Agreement to
any Third Party, provided, however, that any Party may assign or transfer this Agreement to any
Affiliate, provided that the assigning Party shall guarantee the performance of that Affiliate, or
to any successor by merger of such Party, or to the Purchaser of all or substantially all of such
assets of its business, without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their successors
and permitted assigns.

     10.9. Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in facsimile counterparts each of
which is hereby agreed to have the legal binding effect of an original signature. The Parties
hereto agree to forward the original signatures by overnight mail to the other Party upon
execution.

     10.10. License Survival During Bankruptcy. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant
to this Agreement to the Pathogenics Intellectual Property are, and shall otherwise be deemed to
be, for purposes of Paragraph 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, licenses of rights to
“Intellectual Property” as defined under Paragraph 101(35A) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The
parties agree that Acuity, as a licensee of such rights under this Agreement, shall retain and may
fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, subject to
performance by Acuity of its obligations under this Agreement. The parties further agree that, in
the event Pathogenics elects to terminate this Agreement because of a Bankruptcy Event and Acuity
elects to continue the licenses under this Agreement as contemplated by the preceding sentence,
then Acuity shall be entitled, upon reasonable request, to have access, in confidence, to such of
Pathogenics Intellectual Property not already in Acuity’s possession, as shall be reasonably
necessary to make use of the license rights under this Agreement without participation by
Pathogenics.
