(d)               Applicability of Bankruptcy Code. For the avoidance of doubt, rights granted under this Article III shall be deemed to be a license of rights to “intellectual property” as defined in Section 101 (35A) of the Bankruptcy Code and shall otherwise be subject to Section 2.3.

(e)               Transfer of Regulatory Filings. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bausch Health will own all Regulatory Approvals for Licensed Products in the Licensed Territory, including the Transferred IND. On the Effective Date or such later date as requested by Bausch Health (not to exceed [ ]), Eyenovia shall (or shall cause its Affiliate to) assign and transfer to Bausch Health (or Bausch Health’s designated Affiliate) the Transferred IND (and all of Eyenovia’s and its Affiliates rights, interest and title therein, free and clear of all Encumbrances).

(ii)              Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the assignment or assumption of all or any portion of any rights or obligations under any Assumed Contract shall require the consent of any other party thereto or any other Third Party that has not been obtained prior to the Effective Date, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or otherwise transfer any rights or obligations under any such Assumed Contract if an attempted assignment without any such consent would constitute a breach or violation thereof. If any such Third Party consent is not obtained prior to the Effective Date, Eyenovia will continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Third Party consents after the Effective Date. Pending assignment to Bausch Health, Eyenovia shall use good faith efforts to cooperate with Bausch Health after the Effective Date to provide to Bausch Health substantially equivalent benefits under or with respect to the applicable Assumed Contract as to which the requisite Third Party consent has not been obtained or for which Eyenovia has, pursuant to Section 3.1(f)(i) requested that the assignment occur within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after the Effective Date.

(c)               If Bausch Health determines to have Eyenovia Manufacture its commercial supply of the Licensed Product (including the Atropine Product and/or the Device), then the Parties shall promptly negotiate in good faith and enter into a commercial supply agreement (the “Commercial Supply Agreement”) for the supply by Eyenovia to Bausch Health of the Licensed Product (or component thereof) for Commercial use in the Licensed Territory (the “Commercial Supply”). The Commercial Supply Agreement shall include such terms and conditions as are reasonable and customary for similar commercial supply agreements in the pharmaceutical industry; provided, that the Commercial Supply Agreement shall in no event require Bausch Health to pay Eyenovia any amounts in excess of [ ].

If Bausch Health does provide its consent and Eyenovia declines to file, prosecute, or maintain any Licensed Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights in any country of the Licensed Territory, or desires to allow any Licensed Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights to lapse in any country of the Licensed Territory, then:

(i)               Eyenovia shall provide Bausch Health with reasonable written notice of such decision so as to permit Bausch Health to decide whether to file, prosecute, or maintain such Licensed Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights in the Licensed Territory and to take any necessary action.

(ii)              Following notice from Eyenovia pursuant to Section 6.2(b)(i), Bausch Health may, by providing prompt written notice thereof to Eyenovia, assume control of the filing, prosecution, and/or maintenance of such Licensed Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights in the name of the owner(s) of such Licensed Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights, at Bausch Health’s expense.

(b)               Enforcement. Eyenovia shall have the first right to determine and control a course of action designed to curtail such Third Party Infringement, whether legal or commercial in the Licensed Territory, in connection with the Third Party Infringement, at its own expense, as it reasonably determines appropriate; provided that, in all cases, Eyenovia shall consult with Bausch Health prior to taking any material action and shall consider Bausch Health’s reasonable comments in making a determination to commence such material action and in its strategy with respect to such material action. In the event such course of action includes litigation, Eyenovia shall keep Bausch Health reasonably informed (and shall consult with Bausch Health and shall consider Bausch Health’s reasonable comments) as to any legal or commercial courses of action it pursues pursuant to this Section 6.4(b). In addition, in the event such course of action includes litigation, at the reasonable request of Eyenovia, Bausch Health shall be obligated to join as a party to such proceedings, to be represented by Eyenovia’s counsel (other than to the extent that Bausch Health cannot reasonably be jointly represented by Eyenovia’s counsel because of a conflict that leaves Bausch Health without representation and requires that Bausch Health obtain its own counsel). If Bausch Health elects to engage its own counsel, it shall have the right to do so, at its sole cost, provided that, if Bausch Health engages its own counsel at the request of Eyenovia or because of a conflict, the reasonable fees and related costs of one such separate counsel as such separate counsel is reasonably approved by Eyenovia shall be reimbursed by Eyenovia. At the request of Eyenovia, Bausch Health shall provide reasonable assistance to Eyenovia in connection therewith, including by executing reasonably appropriate documents and cooperating in discovery. Any recoveries resulting from such an action relating to a claim of Third Party Infringement first shall be applied to reimburse the Parties’ costs in connection with the Third Party Infringement, with the balance retained by Bausch Health and deemed Net Sales for the purpose of calculating the split of Gross Profits due to Eyenovia pursuant to Section 7.3.

(c)               Nothing herein shall restrict Bausch Health, at its own expense, from exercising any right to bring proceedings against any Third Party in the event that Eyenovia elects not to pursue an alleged Third Party Infringement, in which case any recoveries resulting from such an action relating to a claim of Third Party Infringement first shall be applied to reimburse the Parties’ costs in connection with the Third Party Infringement, with the balance retained by Bausch Health and deemed Net Sales for the purpose of calculating the split of Gross Profits due to Eyenovia pursuant to Section 7.3; provided that, to the extent the Third Party Infringement relates to a Licensed Patent covering the Device (other than a Third Party Infringement involving a Generic Product of the Licensed Product), then Bausch Health shall be entitled to retain [ ]% of such balance (and such amounts will not be deemed Net Sales). At the request of Bausch Health, Eyenovia shall provide reasonable assistance to Bausch Health in connection therewith, including by executing reasonably appropriate documents, cooperating in discovery, and joining as a party to the action. In the event that Eyenovia elects not to pursue an alleged Third Party Infringement and Bausch Health elects to pursue such Third Party Infringement, then Eyenovia covenants that it will not (and will direct its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, licensees and sublicensees not to) sue or otherwise seek damages or other recourse from Bausch Health (or its affiliates and its and their officers, directors, employees or advisors) in connection with Bausch Health’s conduct of any proceedings involving such Third Party Infringement and/or any losses, costs, damages, fees, or expenses incurred by Eyenovia as a result of such Third Party Infringement or the result thereof, provided that, this sentence shall not limit Eyenovia’s rights to reimbursement of its costs in connection with the Third Party Infringement as set forth in this Section.

6.5              Defense of Infringement Claims.

(a)               If a Party becomes aware of any actual or potential claim alleging that the actual or planned Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Licensed Product in the Licensed Territory infringes, misappropriates, or otherwise violates any Intellectual Property Rights of a Third Party (or would if carried out) (each, an “Infringement Claim”), then such Party will notify the other Party as promptly as possible following the receipt of service of process in such action, suit, or proceeding, or the date on which such Party becomes aware that such action, suit, or proceeding has been instituted.

(b)               Defense. As between the Parties, Eyenovia shall have the first right to defend against any such Infringement Claim (irrespective of whether such Infringement Claim was brought against Bausch Health, Eyenovia or any of their respective Affiliates, subcontractors, suppliers, licensors, (sub-)licensees or customers), including directing all aspects, stages, motions, and proceedings of litigation, as well as bringing any counter-claims against the Infringement Claim (collectively, “Defense”).

(c)               The Parties shall cooperate in relation to any such Defense as follows:

(i)                Prior to undertaking any action of Defense, Eyenovia shall notify Bausch Health in writing and shall, upon Bausch Health’s request, discuss with Bausch Health in good faith the applicable Infringement Claim and the Defense strategy Eyenovia wishes to pursue;

(ii)              Eyenovia shall give due consideration to Bausch Health’s comments with respect to any items discussed pursuant to Section 6.5(c)(i) above, but shall have the final decision-making authority on all aspects of such Defense;

(iii)              If Eyenovia decides to undertake a Defense after giving due consideration to Bausch Health’s comments, Eyenovia shall control the Defense against the Infringement Claim;

(iv)             Eyenovia shall keep Bausch Health reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such Infringement Claim or Defense, including providing Bausch Health with copies of draft and filed filings, motions, pleadings and other material submissions and communications (including oral communications) with the relevant judicial authority relating to such Infringement Claim or Defense, sufficiently in advance, where reasonable, for Bausch Health to comment on such Infringement Claim or such Defense;

(v)               Eyenovia shall give due consideration to Bausch Health’s comments with respect to the Infringement Claim or the Defense given under Section 6.5(c)(iv) above, but shall have the final decision-making authority as to whether to incorporate such comments;

(vi)             Upon Eyenovia’s request, Bausch Health shall cooperate in any such Defense, including, if requested by Eyenovia, by being joined as a party and hereby agrees to be joined;

(vii)             Eyenovia shall not enter into a settlement that imposes a financial obligation upon Bausch Health or any of its Affiliates, subcontractors, suppliers, licensors or (sub- )licensees or which limits any of their rights in any Licensed IP without Bausch Health’s prior written consent, and in any such settlement Eyenovia shall always take into consideration the interest of Bausch Health; and

(viii)        Bausch Health shall be jointly represented in any Defense by Eyenovia’s counsel (such counsel to be mutually agreed upon by both Parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, provided that, if the Parties are unable to agree on a counsel, Eyenovia shall have the right to appoint such counsel); provided that Bausch Health has the right to be represented in any Defense by its own counsel, at its sole cost; provided that if Bausch Health cannot reasonably be jointly represented by Eyenovia’s counsel because of a conflict that leaves Bausch Health without representation and requires Bausch Health to obtain its own counsel, subject to Eyenovia’s reasonable approval of such counsel, in which case the reasonable attorney fees and costs for Bausch Health shall be reimbursed by Eyenovia.

(d)               Nothing herein shall restrict Bausch Health, at its own expense, from exercising any right to defend against any such Infringement Claim in the event that Eyenovia elects not to defend any Infringement Claim. In the event that Eyenovia elects not to defend an Infringement Claim and Bausch Health elects to defend such Infringement Claim, then Eyenovia covenants that it will not (and will direct its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, licensees and sublicensees not to) sue or otherwise seek damages or other recourse from Bausch Health (or its affiliates and its and their officers, directors, employees or advisors) in connection with Bausch Health’s conduct of any Defense of such Infringement Claim and/or any losses, costs, damages, fees, or expenses incurred by Eyenovia as a result of such Infringement Claim or its Defense or the result thereof, provided that, this sentence shall not limit Eyenovia’s rights to reimbursement of its costs in connection with an Infringement Claim in accordance with Section 6.5(e).

(e)               All monies recovered upon the final judgment or settlement of any Infringement Claim or Defense shall accrue to Bausch Health and shall first be allocated to reimburse the Parties for their respective costs and expenses in making such recovery (other than those costs and expenses expressly required to be paid by a Party itself). Any remainder after such reimbursement shall be regarded as Net Sales for the purposes of Section 7.3; provided that, where Bausch Health has exercised its right to defend any such Infringement Claim, to the extent the Infringement Claim relates to the Device (other than an Infringement Claim involving a Generic Product of the Licensed Product), Bausch Health shall be entitled to retain [ ]% of any such remainder (and such amounts will not be deemed Net Sales).

6.6              Third Party Licenses.

(a)               If Bausch Health or its Affiliates or sublicensees are subject to any claim or proceeding (including an Infringement Claim) and Bausch Health (after consultation with Eyenovia) in good faith reasonably believes that it is necessary to obtain a license under any Patent Rights or Know-How of a Third Party that would be infringed or be deemed misappropriated or otherwise violated by the Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of the Licensed Products in the Licensed Field in the Licensed Territory (including as a result of a decision by the applicable court or arbiter that such Third Party Intellectual Property Rights have been infringed), then Bausch Health shall have the right to negotiate and execute a license agreement (a “Third Party License”). The mere existence of a claim or proceeding alone shall not constitute the basis for a good faith, reasonable belief of Bausch Health that such Third Party License is required; provided that Bausch Health may consider, among other things, the merits of such claim and/or the relative economic benefit of pursuing a proceeding or obtaining a license.

(b)               Without limiting Bausch Health’s rights under Article IX and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Bausch Health shall be entitled to deduct up to [ ] ([ ]%]) of the damages, royalties, milestone payments, or other payments paid or payable to such Third Party in respect of such claim or proceeding or pursuant to such Third Party License from the royalties and milestone payments payable by Bausch Health to Eyenovia hereunder; provided that, in no event shall any royalties, milestone payments or other payments payable by Bausch Health to Eyenovia hereunder be reduced by more than [ ] ([ ]%) (the “Floor”). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Floor shall not apply to the extent such damages, royalties, milestone payments, or other payments paid or payable to such Third Party in respect of such claim or proceeding or pursuant to such Third Party License relate to Patent Rights or Know-How of a Third Party that would be infringed or be deemed misappropriated or otherwise violated by the Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of the Device itself, [ ]. Any damages, royalties, milestone payments, or other payments paid or payable to such Third Party which cannot be deducted in accordance with this Section 6.6 in a given Calendar Quarter shall be carried forward and Bausch Health shall be entitled to deduct such amounts from payments to Eyenovia in future Calendar Quarters in accordance with this Section 6.6(b).

ARTICLE VII

 
Financial Provisions

7.1              License Fee. In partial consideration of the rights granted to Bausch Health hereunder, within three (3) Business Days following the Effective Date, Bausch Health shall pay to Eyenovia, via electronic wire transfer in immediately available funds, a one-time, non-creditable, non-refundable license fee of Ten Million U.S. Dollars (US $10,000,000).

7.2              Milestone Payments.

(a)               Bausch Health shall pay Eyenovia the following non-refundable, non-creditable, one (1)-time milestone payments after the first achievement by Bausch Health, its Affiliates, or its sublicensees of the corresponding milestone events set forth below:

(b)               Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of the payments listed in this Section 7.2, shall be payable more than once, and, subject to the foregoing, each shall be payable at the first achievement of a milestone event for a Licensed Product and shall not be payable again if subsequently another Licensed Product achieves the same milestone event.

(c)               Bausch Health shall pay to Eyenovia, by wire transfer to an account designated by Eyenovia, any milestone payment(s) required under Section 7.2 within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after the end of any Calendar Quarter in which the corresponding milestone event(s) is achieved.

(a)               During the Gross Profit Split Term, with respect to each Calendar Year, Bausch Health shall pay to Eyenovia a portion of the Annual Gross Profit for such Calendar Year based on the following percentages:

For clarity, each gross profit rate set forth in the table immediately above shall only be applied to the Annual Gross Profits within the applicable gross profit split range. For example, Gross Profit split due to Eyenovia for Annual Gross Profits of $[ ] would be calculated as follows:

(b)               Negative Gross Profit. In the event that, in any Calendar Quarter, there is applicable Negative Gross Profit, then, in calculating the Gross Profit in subsequent Calendar Quarter(s), the Gross Profit for such subsequent Calendar Quarter shall be reduced by an amount equal to any applicable Negative Gross Profit that has not been previously applied to reduce Gross Profit.

(c)               Gross Profit Split Term. On a country-by-country and Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, Bausch Health shall make the payments under Section 7.3(a) on the Gross Profit of such Licensed Product in such country in the Licensed Territory during the period of time beginning on the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country in the Licensed Territory and ending on the later of (i) the date of expiration of the last Valid Claim of the Licensed Patent Rights that Covers such Licensed Product in such country in the Licensed Territory, and (ii) ten (10) years after First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country in the Licensed Territory (the “Gross Profit Split Term”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Gross Profit Split Term continues in a country solely due to Section 7.3(c)(ii) (i.e., in such country the Licensed Product is no longer Covered by a Valid Claim of the Licensed Patent Rights), then the portion of the Gross Profit in such country for such Licensed Product payable by Bausch Health to Eyenovia under Section 7.3(a) shall be reduced by [ ] ([ ]%). Upon the expiration of the Gross Profit Split Term with respect to a Licensed Product in a country in the Licensed Territory, the licenses granted by Eyenovia to Bausch Health pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be deemed to be fully paid-up, perpetual, and irrevocable with respect to such Licensed Product in such country.

(b)               Payments of the applicable Gross Profit split shall be made by Bausch Health, on a quarterly basis, to the bank account indicated by Eyenovia within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after the end of the applicable Calendar Quarter.

7.5              Financial Records. Bausch Health shall maintain, and shall ensure that its Affiliates maintain, records, in sufficient detail to support calculations, which shall be complete and accurate and shall fully and properly reflect all Net Sales, Cost of Goods and Gross Profits (and Negative Gross Profits) indicated in the quarterly reports described in Section 7.4(a). Bausch Health will maintain such records for at least [ ] ([ ]) [ ] following the end of the Calendar Year to which they pertain. Such books of accounts shall be kept at the principal place of business of the financial personnel with responsibility for preparing and maintaining such records. With respect to Gross Profit split, such records shall be in sufficient detail to support calculations of the split of Gross Profit due to Eyenovia. The provisions of this Section 7.5 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for [ ] ([ ]) [ ].

7.6              Audit Rights. Upon reasonable written request of Eyenovia, no more than once per Calendar Year, Bausch Health shall make all records reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of its reports pursuant to Section 7.4(b) for up to the [ ] ([ ]) [ ] immediately prior to the date of such request available for inspection by an independent auditor of an internationally recognized auditing firm during standard business hours, selected by Eyenovia and agreed to by Bausch Health, acting reasonably. The same records may not be audited more than once pursuant to this Section 7.6. If the auditor concludes that additional amounts were owed by Bausch Health to Eyenovia during the audited period, then Bausch Health shall pay any such additional amounts to Eyenovia within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after delivery of the audit report (subject to the right of Bausch Health to dispute such findings), plus interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the time such payment was due. If the auditor concludes that amounts were overpaid by Bausch Health to Eyenovia during the audited period, then Eyenovia shall repay such overpaid amounts within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after delivery of the audit report (subject to the right of Eyenovia to dispute such findings). Eyenovia shall pay all audit expenses, provided, however, that in the event the audit reveals a greater than [ ] ([ ]%) payment shortfall in the amounts owed to Eyenovia by Bausch Health during the relevant period, Bausch Health shall be responsible for the reasonable costs of the audit. Eyenovia shall treat all financial information subject to review under this Section 7.6 as confidential and shall cause its accounting firm to retain all such financial information in confidence under Article 11 below. The provisions of this Section 7.6 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for [ ] ([ ]) [ ].

7.7              Tax Matters. The royalties, milestones, and other amounts payable by Bausch Health to Eyenovia pursuant to this Agreement (“Payments”) shall not be reduced on account of any taxes unless required by Law. Eyenovia alone shall be responsible for paying any and all taxes (other than withholding taxes required by Law to be deducted and paid on Eyenovia’s behalf by Bausch Health) levied on account of, or measured in whole or in part by reference to, any Payments it receives. The Parties will cooperate in good faith to obtain the benefit of any relevant tax treaties to minimize as far as reasonably possible any taxes which may be levied on any Payments. Bausch Health shall deduct or withhold from the Payments any taxes that it is required by Law to deduct or withhold. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Eyenovia is entitled under any applicable tax treaty to a reduction of the rate of, or the elimination of, applicable withholding tax, it may deliver to Bausch Health or the appropriate Governmental Authority (with the assistance of Bausch Health to the extent that this is reasonably required and is expressly requested in writing) the prescribed forms necessary to reduce the applicable rate of withholding or to relieve Bausch Health of its obligation to withhold tax, and Bausch Health shall apply the reduced rate of withholding tax, or dispense with withholding tax, as the case may be; provided, that Bausch Health has received evidence of Eyenovia’s delivery of all applicable forms (and, if necessary, its receipt of appropriate governmental authorization) at least [ ] ([ ]) [ ] prior to the time that the Payment is due. If, in accordance with the foregoing, Bausch Health withholds any amount, it shall make timely payment to the proper taxing authority of the withheld amount, and send to Eyenovia proof of such payment within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] following that latter payment.

7.8              Currency Exchange. All payments under this Agreement shall be payable in United States Dollars. When conversion of payments from any foreign currency is required to be undertaken by Bausch Health, the United States or Canadian Dollar equivalent shall be calculated using Bausch Health’s then-current standard exchange rate methodology as applied in its external reporting.

7.9              Late Payments. A paying Party shall pay interest to the other Party on the aggregate amount of any payments that are not paid on or before the date such payments are due under this Agreement at the Interest Rate, calculated on the number of days such payments are paid after the date such payments are due; provided, that with respect to any disputed payments, no interest payment shall be due until such dispute is resolved and the interest which shall be payable thereon shall be based on the finally-resolved amount of such payment, calculated from the original date on which the disputed payment was due through the date on which payment is actually made.

7.10          Third Party Agreements.

(b)               Termination for Material Breach.

(c)               Material Breach Specific to a Country.

11.3       Publicity; Attribution; Terms of this Agreement; Non-Use of Names.

(a)          Except as required by judicial order or applicable Law or as set forth below, neither Party shall make any public announcement concerning this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall only apply in the first instance that specific information is to be disclosed. The Party preparing any such public announcement shall provide the other Party with a draft thereof as far in advance of its scheduled release as reasonably practicable. Neither Party shall use the name, trademark, trade name, or logo of the other Party or its Affiliates or their respective employees in any publicity or news release relating to this Agreement or its subject matter, without the prior express written permission of the other Party.

(b)          Notwithstanding the terms of this Article XI,

(i)             either Party shall be permitted to disclose the existence and terms of this Agreement to the extent required, in the reasonable opinion of such Party’s legal counsel, to comply with applicable Laws, including the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC or any other Governmental Authority or securities exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing, before disclosing this Agreement or any of the terms hereof pursuant to this Section 11.3(b), the Parties will coordinate in advance with each other and in a reasonable manner in order to allow the Party seeking disclosure to make such disclosure within the timelines required by applicable Laws (including the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC or any other Governmental Authority or securities exchange) or as reasonably requested by the Party seeking disclosure, including in connection with the redaction of certain provisions of this Agreement with respect to any filings with the SEC, Nasdaq, or any other stock exchange on which securities issued by a Party or a Party’s Affiliate are traded, and each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to seek confidential treatment for such terms as may be reasonably requested by the other Party; provided, that each Party will ultimately retain control over what information that Party discloses to the SEC and their relevant exchange.

(ii)            Either Party may disclose the existence and terms of this Agreement in confidence to its attorneys and advisors, and to potential acquirers (and their respective professional attorneys and advisors), in connection with a potential merger, acquisition, or reorganization and to existing and potential investors or lenders of such Party, or to existing and potential licensees or sublicensees or to permitted assignees, in each case under an agreement to keep the terms of confidentiality and non-use substantially no less rigorous than the terms contained in this Agreement and to use such information solely for the purpose permitted pursuant to this Section 11.3(b).

(c)          For clarity, either Party may issue a press release or public announcement or make such other disclosure relating to this Agreement if the contents of such press release, public announcement, or disclosure have previously been made public other than through a breach of this Agreement by the issuing Party or its Affiliates.

11.4       Publications. Each Party and its Affiliates shall have the right to make disclosures pertaining to the Licensed Products to Third Parties in Publications in accordance with the following procedure: The publishing Party shall provide the non-publishing Party with an advance copy of the proposed Publication, and the non-publishing Party shall then have [ ] ([ ]) [ ] prior to submission for any Publication in which to recommend any changes it reasonably believes are necessary to preserve any Confidential Information, Patent Rights or Know-How belonging in whole or in part to the non-publishing Party. If the non-publishing Party informs the publishing Party that such Publication, in the non-publishing Party’s reasonable judgment, could be expected to have a material adverse effect on any patentable invention owned by or licensed, in whole or in part, to the non-publishing Party (other than pursuant to a license granted under this Agreement), or on any Confidential Information or Know-How which is Confidential Information of the non-publishing Party, the publishing Party shall delay or prevent such Publication as follows: (a) with respect to a patentable invention, such Publication shall be delayed sufficiently long (not to exceed [ ] ([ ]) [ ]) to permit the timely preparation and filing of a patent application; and (b) with respect to Know-How which is Confidential Information of such non-publishing Party, such Know-How shall be deleted from the Publication.

11.5       Term. All obligations under this Article XI shall expire [ ] ([ ]) [ ] following termination of this Agreement.

11.6       Return of Confidential Information. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, the Receiving Party shall return to the Disclosing Party or destroy (and certify as to the destruction of) all Confidential Information received by the Receiving Party from the Disclosing Party (and all copies and reproductions thereof). In addition, the Receiving Party shall destroy: (a) any notes, reports, or other documents prepared by the Receiving Party which contain Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party; and (b) any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (and all copies and reproductions thereof) which is in electronic form or cannot otherwise be returned to the Disclosing Party. Nothing in this Section 11.6 shall require the alteration, modification, deletion, or destruction of archival tapes or other electronic back-up media made in the ordinary course of business; provided, that the Receiving Party shall continue to be bound by its obligations of confidentiality and other obligations under this Article XI with respect to any Confidential Information contained in such archival tapes or other electronic back-up media. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) the Receiving Party’s legal counsel may retain one (1) copy of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information solely for the purpose of determining the Receiving Party’s continuing obligations under this Article XI; and (ii) the Receiving Party may retain the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and its own notes, reports, and other documents (A) to the extent reasonably required (1) to exercise the rights and licenses of the Receiving Party expressly surviving expiration or termination of this Agreement; (2) to perform the obligations of the Receiving Party expressly surviving expiration or termination of this Agreement; or (B) to the extent it is impracticable to do so without incurring disproportionate cost, provided, that the Receiving Party shall continue to be bound by its obligations of confidentiality and other obligations under this Article XI with respect to any Confidential Information retained for any of the foregoing reasons. Notwithstanding the return or destruction of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the Receiving Party shall continue to be bound by its obligations of confidentiality and other obligations under this Article XI.

ARTICLE XII

 
GOVERNANCE; Dispute Resolution

12.1       Joint Steering Committee. Within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after the Effective Date, the Parties shall establish a joint steering committee (the “JSC”), composed of [ ] ([ ]) senior employees of each Party, to oversee and guide the coordination of the Parties under this Agreement with respect to Development activities. The JSC shall act as a joint consultative body. The JSC shall in particular:

(a)           review and discuss the strategy and progress of the Development of the Licensed Product in and outside the Licensed Territory;

(b)           review and discuss the strategy and progress of the Development of the Second Generation Device;

(c)           oversee and facilitate the Parties’ communications and activities with respect to Publications;

(d)           establish joint subcommittees as it deems necessary or advisable to further the purpose of this Agreement; and

(e)           perform such other functions as appropriate to further the purposes of this Agreement, as expressly set forth in this Agreement or allocated to it by the Parties’ written agreement.

12.2       General Purpose. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, as of the Effective Date and unless and to the extent later agreed in good faith by the Parties in writing, the JSC’s general and sole purpose shall be for information sharing and advisory purposes, and the JSC shall not have any decision-making power under this Agreement with respect to either Party’s Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of any products (including any Licensed Products).

12.3       JSC Membership and Meetings.

(a)           Committee Members. Each JSC representative shall have appropriate knowledge and expertise and sufficient seniority within the applicable Party to make decisions arising within the scope of the JSC’s responsibilities. Each Party may replace its representatives on the JSC on written notice to the other Party. Each Party shall appoint one of its JSC representatives to be a co-chairperson of the JSC. The co-chairpersons shall prepare and circulate agendas to JSC members at least [ ] ([ ]) [ ] before each JSC meeting and shall direct the preparation of reasonably detailed minutes for each JSC meeting, which shall be approved by the co-chairpersons and circulated to JSC members within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after such meeting. The Parties shall determine their respective initial members of the JSC within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] following the Effective Date.

(b)           Meetings. The JSC shall hold meetings at such times as it elects to do so, but in no event shall meetings of the JSC be held less frequently than once every [ ] ([ ]) [ ], unless otherwise agreed to by both Parties. The first JSC meeting shall be held within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after the Effective Date or such other date as mutually agreed to by both Parties. JSC meetings may be held in person or by audio or video teleconference, or any combination thereof. In-person JSC meetings shall be held at locations alternately selected by the Parties. Each Party shall be responsible for all of its own expenses of participating in any JSC meeting. No action taken at any JSC meeting shall be effective unless at least [ ] ([ ]) representative of each Party is participating. In addition, upon written notice to the other Party, either Party may request that a special ad hoc meeting of the JSC be convened for the purpose of resolving any disputes in connection with, or for the purpose of reviewing any material subject-matter within the scope of the JSC, the review of which cannot be reasonably postponed until the following scheduled JSC meeting. Such ad hoc meeting shall be convened at such time as may be mutually agreed by the Parties, but no later than [ ] ([ ]) [ ] following the notification date of request that such meeting be held.

(c)           Non-Member Attendance. Each Party may from time to time invite a reasonable number of participants, in addition to its representatives, to attend JSC meetings in a non-voting capacity; provided that if either Party intends to have any Third Party (including any consultant) attend such a meeting, such Party shall provide reasonable prior written notice to the other Party and obtain the other Party’s approval for such Third Party to attend such meeting, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Such Party shall ensure that such Third Party is bound by written confidentiality and non-use obligations consistent with the terms of this Agreement.

12.4       Decision-Making; Limitations on Authority. The Parties agree that the JSC has no decision-making power. The JSC shall have only such powers as are expressly assigned to it in this Agreement, and such powers shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the JSC will not have the power to amend this Agreement or waive any provision of this Agreement, and no JSC decision may be in contravention of any terms and conditions of this Agreement.

12.5       Discontinuation of the JSC. The activities to be performed by the JSC shall solely relate to governance under this Agreement and are not intended to be or involve the delivery of services. The JSC shall continue to exist until [ ], or earlier if either (i) the Agreement is terminated or expires, or (ii) the Parties mutually agree in writing to disband the JSC. Thereafter, each Party shall designate a contact person for the exchange of information under this Agreement or such exchange of information shall be made through the Alliance Managers.

12.6       Dispute Resolution Process. Any controversy, claim, or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be settled, if possible, by the JSC or through good faith negotiations between the Parties. If the Parties are unable to settle such dispute through the JSC, and a Party wishes to pursue the matter, the matter may be referred by either Party to designated senior officers of each Party (the “Senior Officers”), who shall meet to attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith. Such resolution, if any, of a referred issue shall be final and binding on the Parties. All negotiations pursuant to this Section 12.6 are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.

12.7       Arbitration. If the Senior Officers are not able to agree on the resolution of a dispute within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] (or such other period of time as mutually agreed in writing by the Senior Officers) after such dispute was first referred to them, then, if a Party wishes to pursue further resolution of such dispute, such dispute shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 12.7. Such dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the [ ] pursuant to [ ] then in effect (the “Rules”), except as otherwise provided herein and applying the substantive law specified in Section 13.2. The arbitration will be conducted in [ ], by [ ]; provided that each Party will, within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] after the institution of the arbitration proceedings, [ ], within [ ]. Each arbitrator must have significant business or legal experience in the pharmaceutical business. [ ]. After conducting any hearing and taking any evidence deemed appropriate for consideration, the arbitrators will be requested to render their opinion within [ ] ([ ]) [ ] of the final arbitration hearing. The arbitration shall be conducted, and all documents submitted to the arbitrators shall be, in English. No panel of arbitrators will have the power to award damages excluded pursuant to this Agreement and any arbitral award that purports to award such damages is expressly prohibited and void ab initio. Each Party shall bear its own legal costs for its counsel and other expenses, and the Parties shall equally share the costs of the arbitration; provided that the arbitral tribunal shall have the discretion to provide that the losing Party is responsible for all or a portion of such arbitration and legal costs, in such case the arbitral award will so provide. Decisions of the panel of arbitrators that conform to the terms of this Section 12.7 shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and the Parties undertake to carry out any award without delay. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Except to the extent necessary to confirm, enforce, or challenge an award of the arbitration, to protect or pursue a legal right, or as otherwise required by applicable Law or regulation or securities exchange, neither Party nor any arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, in no event shall an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy, or claim would be barred by the applicable [ ] statute of limitations. Any disputes concerning the propriety of the commencement of the arbitration shall be finally settled by the arbitral tribunal. Nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver by either Party of any expedited process available under the Rules.

12.8       Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XII, in the event of a breach of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, money damages may be inadequate and, in such case, the other Party would not have adequate remedy at law and that the non-breaching Party, in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, may apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance, injunctive relief, and/or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of such covenants or agreements (without posting a bond or other security), and the breaching Party will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance, and other equitable relief on the basis that the non-breaching Party has an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

12.9       Continuance of Rights and Obligations During Pendency of Dispute Resolution. If there are any disputes in connection with this Agreement, including disputes related to termination of this Agreement, all rights and obligations of the Parties shall continue until such time as any dispute has been resolved in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
