B.XOMA is willing to grant VIVENTIA such a non-exclusive license, on the terms and conditions set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants hereinafter recited, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1 — DEFINITIONS
In this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth in this Article.
1.1“Affiliate” means any corporation or other entity which is directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with a party hereto. For the purpose of this Agreement, “control” shall mean the direct or indirect ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding shares or other voting rights of the subject entity to elect directors.
1.2“BLA” means a Biologics License Application (or, if applicable, a Product License Application), as defined in the U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and any corresponding U.S. or foreign application, registration or certification.
1.3.“Confidential Information” shall mean (i) any proprietary or confidential information or material in tangible form disclosed hereunder that is designated as “Confidential” at the time it is delivered to the receiving party, or (ii) proprietary or confidential information disclosed orally hereunder which is identified as confidential or proprietary when disclosed and such disclosure of confidential information is confirmed in writing within thirty (30) days by the disclosing party.
1.4“Field” shall mean the treatment or prophylaxis of a human or animal disease state or condition and shall exclude Phage Display.
1.5“Immunoglobulin” means any molecule that has an amino acid sequence by virtue of which it specifically interacts with an antigen and wherein any chains of the molecule contain a functionally operating region of an antibody variable region including, without limitation, any naturally occurring or recombinant form of such a molecule.
1.6“IND” shall mean an Investigational New Drug application, as defined in the U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder for initiating clinical trials in the United States, or any corresponding foreign application, registration or certification.
1.7“Know-How” means unpatented and/ or unpatentable technical information, including ideas, concepts, inventions, discoveries, data, designs, formulas, specifications, procedures for experiments and tests and other protocols, results of experimentation and testing, fermentation and purification techniques, and assay protocols owned by XOMA as of the Effective Date which may be necessary for the practice of the Patent Rights, which XOMA has the right to license, and which have been transmitted to VIVENTIA. Know-How shall not include the Patent Rights. All Know-How shall be Confidential Information of XOMA.
1.8“Licensed Product” will mean any product within the scope of a Valid Claim or produced using any method within the scope of a Valid Claim, or which incorporates or is made using any Know-How, provided however, that the term Licensed Product shall not include Phage Display Materials or any Product which is discovered, isolated, characterized or produced by the use of Phage Display.
1.9“Licensed Technology” means the Patent Rights and Know-How.
1.10“NDA” shall mean a New Drug Application, as defined in the U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, or any corresponding U.S. or foreign application, registration or certification.
1.11“Net Sales” shall mean revenues received by VIVENTIA or its Affiliates as follows: the invoice price of Licensed Products sold by VIVENTIA or its marketing partner(s) to third parties, less, to the extent included in such invoice price the total of: (1) ordinary and customary trade discounts actually allowed; (2) credits, rebates and returns (including, but not limited to, wholesaler and retailer returns); (3) freight, postage, insurance and duties paid for and separately identified on the invoice or other documentation maintained in the ordinary course of business, and (4) excise taxes, other consumption taxes, customs duties and compulsory payments to governmental authorities actually paid and separately identified on the invoice or other documentation maintained in the ordinary course of business. Net Sales shall also include the fair
market value of all other consideration received by VIVENTIA or its marketing partner(s) in respect of Licensed Products, whether such consideration is in cash,
payment in kind, exchange or another form, but shall not include any payments received for reimbursement of research expenses, including but not limited to the conduct of clinical trials, or for the purchase of debt or equity of VIVENTIA. In the case of pharmacy incentive programs, hospital performance incentive program chargebacks and/or similar programs or discounts on “bundles” of products, VIVENTIA may, with notice to XOMA, discount the bona fide list price of a Licensed Product by the average percentage discount of all VIVENTIA products in a particular “bundle,” calculated as follows:
Average percentage discount on a particular “bundle” | = | A | X 100 |
B |
where A equals the total discounted price of a particular “bundle” of products, and B equals the sum of the undiscounted bona fide list prices of each unit of every product in such “bundle.” VIVENTIA shall provide XOMA documentation, reasonably acceptable to XOMA, establishing such average discount with respect to each “bundle.” If a Licensed Product is not sold separately and no bona fide list price exists for such Licensed Product, the parties shall negotiate in good faith an imputed bona fide list price for such Licensed Product.

For the avoidance of doubt, Phage Display Materials shall include any such materials wherein the polypeptide in an Immunoglobulin.

or created by or arose out of or is related to use of Licensed Materials, and is made or sold under conditions which, if unlicensed, would constitute infringement of the XOMA Patent Rights.
1.17“Third Party” means any person or entity other than VIVENTIA or XOMA.

ARTICLE 9 — TERM AND TERMINATION
9.1Term. The term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and remain in full force and effect until the expiration of the last patent within the Patent Rights, or the tenth anniversary of the first commercial sale of a Licensed Product, whichever is later, unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Article 9.
9.2Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement in the event the other party has materially breached or defaulted in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder, and such default has continued for sixty (60) days after written notice thereof was provided to the breaching party by the nonbreaching party. The parties hereby agree that a breach of Section 2.5 is considered to be a material breach of this Agreement. Any termination shall become effective at the end of such sixty (60) day period unless the breaching party has cured any such breach or default prior to the expiration of such period.

It is understood and agreed that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement and that the non-breaching party may be entitled to injunctive relief as a remedy for any such breach. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for any such breach of this Agreement, but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity.
(b)Return of Confidential Information. Upon any termination of this Agreement, VIVENTIA and XOMA shall promptly return to the other party all Confidential Information, including without limitation, any Know-How received from the other party (except XOMA may retain copies of any reports or records referred to in Article 4 or 5).
