For any other amounts owed by XOMA under the First Amended and Restated Agreement (including XOMA’s share of the U.S. Commercialization Costs incurred between October 1, 2004 and December 31, 2004), Genentech may offset such amounts against royalties owed by Genentech under this Agreement. Such offset will be on a dollar-for-dollar basis until all amounts owed by XOMA under the First Amended and Restated Agreement have been paid in full.

 

3.4 Royalties. This Article 3 sets forth the only consideration due to XOMA regarding the subject matter of this Agreement.

 

-6-


(a) Initial Period Royalty.

 

(1) Royalty for Sales in the United States. As consideration to XOMA for the licenses and other rights granted to Genentech under this Agreement, beginning as of the Effective Date and continuing for the first [*] from the date of the first commercial sale of a Licensed Product approved for commercial sale in the United States (i.e., [*] from November 17, 2003) (such period, the “Initial U.S. Royalty Period”) Genentech shall make royalty payments to XOMA as follows:

 

(A) Genentech shall pay a royalty of [*] percent ([*]%) for the portion of Aggregate Annual Net Sales of each Licensed Product in the United States that is less than [*] dollars (US$[*]).

 

(B) Genentech shall pay a royalty of [*] percent ([*]%) for the portion of Aggregate Annual Net Sales of each Licensed Product in the United States that is equal to or greater than [*] dollars (US$[*]).

 

(2) Royalty for Sales in the Genentech Territory. As consideration to XOMA for the licenses and other rights granted to Genentech under this Agreement, beginning as of the Effective Date and continuing on a country by country basis for the first [*] from the date of the first commercial sale of a Licensed Product approved for commercial sale in each such country in the Genentech Territory (each such period an “Initial Ex-U.S. Royalty Period”), Genentech shall pay a royalty of [*] percent ([*]%) of Net Sales of each Licensed Product in such country in the Genentech Territory. Without limiting Genentech’s obligations hereunder, it is understood that such an amount may be a pass-through royalty from one or more Ex-U.S. Genentech Partners.

 

(b) Royalties after Initial Period.

 

(1) Royalty After Initial Period for Sales in the United States. As consideration to XOMA for the licenses and other rights granted to Genentech under this Agreement, for sales inside the U.S. (i.e., sales outside the Genentech Territory) after the Initial U.S. Royalty Period and for the remainder of the Term, Genentech shall pay a royalty of either:

 

(A) if there is at least one FDA-approved indication for Licensed Products and a Third Party has obtained Regulatory Approval in any such indication to market either (i) an anti-CD11a product or (ii) a Non-Anti-CD18 Anti-LFA1 Protein Product, then [*] percent ([*]%) of Net Sales in the U.S.; or

 

(B) if not, then [*] percent ([*]%) of Net Sales inside the U.S. (i.e., outside the Genentech Territory).

 

For purposes of this subsection, “Non-Anti-CD18 Anti-LFA1 Protein Product” means an antibody or other protein that binds to LFA1, provided it is not an antibody that binds to CD18.

 

(2) No Royalty After Initial Period for Sales Outside the United States. On a country by country basis, after the end of the applicable Initial Ex-US Royalty Period, Genentech shall not owe any payments to XOMA for sales in such country in the Genentech Territory. After the Initial Ex-U.S. Royalty Period for each country within the Genentech Territory, Genentech shall have an exclusive, paid-up, irrevocable license under the XOMA Patents and XOMA Know-How to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have sold and import Licensed Product(s) in that country within the Genentech Territory.

(e) Royalty Payment Reports. For each month during which any royalties are to be paid under this Agreement, Genentech shall (i) provide to XOMA an initial report with a good faith estimate of Net Sales and royalties for Net Sales in the U.S. (i.e., outside the Genentech Territory), within ten (10) business days after the end of the applicable month, and (ii) provide to XOMA an initial report with a good faith estimate of Net Sales and royalties for Net Sales inside the Genentech Territory, to the extent available to Genentech, within fifteen (15) business days after the end of the applicable month. In addition to the initial report, each royalty payment under subsection 3.4(d) must be accompanied by a final report summarizing the Net Sales during the relevant calendar quarter on a regional basis, or such other basis as available to Genentech. Royalties due will be promptly reconciled as necessary with reported Net Sales and Annual Aggregate Net Sales, including as a result of Genentech obtaining new or additional information from an Ex-U.S. Genentech Partner, whether as a result of an audit of that Ex-U.S. Genentech Partner or otherwise.

 

(f) Audits. Genentech shall maintain its books of accounts for, and records of Net Sales for, Licensed Product for [*] after such Net Sales occur. During the [*] period for records of Net Sales, XOMA may examine such records with respect to determining appropriate amounts of Net Sales as follows: Genentech shall permit an independent certified public accountant selected by XOMA (and reasonably acceptable to Genentech) to examine such books of account and records kept by Genentech as may be necessary to determine the correctness of any report or payment related to such royalty payments. Any such accountant shall enter into a confidentiality agreement with both parties. Such examination shall be made at reasonable times during regular business hours and upon at least twenty (20) business days’ prior notice. In addition, such examination may be conducted not more often than once each year and may cover only periods not previously subject to such examination. After Genentech’s review of the accountant’s examination report and its agreement with such report, or after a final determination pursuant to Article 11, Genentech shall immediately pay all understated royalty payments due to XOMA for Net Sales of Licensed Products by Genentech, together with interest on such amounts due from the date accrued, at the interest rate described in Section 3.4(g). XOMA shall be solely responsible for the expenses of an examination under this Section unless there is a final determination that royalty payments under this Agreement have been, [*] in the aggregate. In that case, Genentech promptly shall reimburse XOMA for the reasonable costs of the examination. Results of any such examination shall be provided to both Parties. Those results, along with any records or accounting information, are Confidential Information of Genentech and subject to Article 5. The foregoing clause survives expiration or termination of the royalty obligations under this Agreement for the period of time Genentech is required to maintain its relevant books and accounts, but no more than a total of [*].

 

(g) Late Payments. Any late payments under this Agreement shall bear interest at a rate of [*] (defined as the rate published in the U.S. Federal Reserve Bulletin H.15 or any successor bulletin thereto) plus [*] percent ([*]%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less.

 

(h) Taxes. XOMA shall pay any and all taxes levied on account of, or measured exclusively by, payments, including royalties, it receives under this Agreement. If laws or regulations require that taxes be withheld, Genentech shall (i) deduct those taxes from the remittable royalty, (ii) timely pay the taxes to the proper taxing authority, and (iii) send proof of payment to XOMA within sixty (60) days following that payment.

 

3.5 Blocked Currency. In any country where the local currency is blocked and cannot be removed from the country, royalties shall continue to be accrued in such country and Net Sales in such country shall continue to be reported, but such royalties will not be paid until they may be removed from the country. At such time as Genentech is able to remove such blocked currency from such country it shall also remove and pay any royalties accrued during such blocked period on XOMA’s behalf.

 

3.6 Foreign Exchange. For the purpose of computing Net Sales for Licensed Products sold in a currency other than United States Dollars, such currency shall be converted into United States Dollars in accordance with Genentech’s customary and usual translation procedures consistently applied.

Any payment required under any provision of this Agreement to be made to either Party or any report required to be made by any Party shall be made to or by an Affiliate of that Party if designated by that Party as the appropriate recipient or reporting entity.

 

3.8 Sublicensees. Any licenses or sublicenses granted by Genentech shall include an obligation for the licensee or sublicensee to account for and report its Net Sales of Licensed Product using the same accounting standards used to determine royalties owed on Net Sales of Licensed Products and Genentech shall pay royalties to XOMA as if the Net Sales of the sublicensee were Net Sales of Genentech.

 

3.9 Development Costs.

 

(a) Approved Budgets. Within ten (10) business days after the Signature Date, XOMA shall provide to Genentech an estimated budget of Development Costs for XOMA’s activities to transition the [*] Trial and to continue the [*] Trial under Section 2.1.

During that [*] period Genentech may examine those records with respect to determining appropriate costs and expenses, as follows: XOMA shall permit an independent certified public accountant selected by Genentech (and reasonably acceptable to XOMA) to examine any such records. Any such accountant shall enter into a confidentiality agreement with both parties. Such examination shall be made at reasonable times during regular business hours and upon at least twenty (20) business days’ prior notice. In addition, such examination may be conducted not more often than once each year and may cover only periods not previously subject to such examination. After XOMA’s review of the accountant’s examination report and its agreement with such report or after a final determination pursuant to Article 11, XOMA shall immediately pay to Genentech all additional payments due to Genentech under the First Amended and Restated Agreement or this Agreement, together with interest on such amounts due from the date accrued, at the interest rate described in Section 3.4(g). Genentech shall be solely responsible for the expenses of an examination under this Section unless there is a final determination that the expenses incurred by XOMA under the First Amended and Restated Agreement or this Agreement have been, [*] in the aggregate.

6.3 Patent Filings.

 

(a) Initial Responsibility. Genentech, at its sole discretion, responsibility and expense, shall file, prosecute and maintain Patents in the United States to cover Genentech Inventions, Joint Inventions and XOMA Inventions relating to any Licensed Product. The determination of the countries in the Genentech Territory in which to file any patent applications on Genentech Inventions, Joint Inventions and XOMA Inventions relating to any Licensed Product shall be made by Genentech, and Genentech shall be responsible for such filings in such countries. Genentech shall have the right, at its expense, to direct and control all material actions relating to the prosecution or maintenance of Genentech Patents, Joint Patents and XOMA Patents in the United States and Genentech Territory, including without limitation, interferences, oppositions, appeals and revocation proceedings.

 

(b) XOMA Patents and Joint Patents. If Genentech elects not to file a XOMA Patent or a Joint Patent, it shall so inform XOMA. XOMA may then file, prosecute and maintain any such XOMA Patent or Joint Patent at its sole responsibility and expense. The Party responsible for filing such a XOMA Patent or Joint Patent will be termed the “filing Party.” The filing Party shall keep the other Party reasonably apprised of the status of each XOMA Patent and Joint Patent and shall seek the advice of the other Party with respect to patent strategy and draft applications and shall give reasonable consideration to any suggestions or recommendations of the other Party concerning the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance and defense thereof.

(c) Initial Filings if Made Outside of the United States. The Parties agree to use reasonable efforts to ensure that any Patent that relates to the subject matter of this Agreement and is filed outside of the United States prior to a U.S. filing will be in a form sufficient to establish the date of original filing as a priority date for the purposes of a subsequent U.S. filing.

 

6.4 Enforcement Rights.

 

(a) Enforcement. Genentech shall have the right, but not the obligation, to institute, prosecute and control at its own expense any action or proceeding with respect to infringement of any of the Genentech Patents, Joint Patents and XOMA Patents by counsel of its own choice. XOMA shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any action for infringement of XOMA Patents or Joint Patents by counsel of its own choice. If Genentech elects not to institute such action or proceeding with respect to any XOMA Patent, XOMA shall have the right at its sole expense to institute such action or proceeding, and Genentech shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any action by counsel of its choice. In the event of an infringement of a Joint Patent, the Parties shall decide the best way to proceed. If one Party brings any such action or proceeding, the other Party agrees to be joined as a party plaintiff if necessary to prosecute the action or proceeding and to give the first Party reasonable assistance and authority to file and prosecute the suit. Any damages or other monetary awards recovered pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall be allocated first to the costs and expenses of the Party bringing suit, then to the costs and expenses, if any, of the other Party. Any amounts remaining shall be retained by the Party bringing suit.

 

(b) Settlement with a Third Party. The Party that controls the prosecution of a given claim with respect to a Licensed Product shall also have the right to control settlement of such claim; provided, however, that if one Party controls, no settlement shall be entered into without the written consent of the other Party if such settlement would materially and adversely affect the interests of such other Party. If there is no agreement between the Parties, then the dispute will be resolved pursuant to Article 11.

 

-13-


6.5 Infringement Defense. If a Third Party asserts that a Patent or other right owned by it is infringed by any Licensed Product, Genentech will be solely responsible for deciding how and whether to defend against any such assertions at its cost and expense. XOMA shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its choice. No settlement of such an action shall be entered into by Genentech without XOMA’s written consent if such settlement would materially and adversely affect XOMA’s interests.

 

ARTICLE 7: REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

Representations and Warranties. Each of the Parties hereby represents and warrants as follows:

8.1 Contribution of Information. XOMA shall disclose to Genentech all preclinical, clinical, regulatory, commercial and other information that is obviously useful to the development and commercialization of Licensed Products and that is either (i) known by XOMA as of the Effective Date, or (ii) becomes known by XOMA as a result of activities related to a Clinical Trial (“Relevant Information”). Within [*] after the Signature Date, XOMA shall provide to Genentech a list of all such Relevant Information then existing, and, promptly upon written request by Genentech thereafter, transfer to Genentech a copy of any such requested Relevant Information, including (if so requested) a copy of XOMA’s own database of data from any and all Clinical Trials of a Licensed Product for which XOMA was responsible. XOMA shall transfer to Genentech copies of additional Relevant Information at the end of any Clinical Trial and upon request by Genentech. Unless otherwise agreed, the Parties will use the same procedure regarding transfer of Relevant Information as had been used in the most recent project. However, at the option of Genentech, Relevant Information shall be provided in a computer readable format by XOMA, to the extent available, and XOMA shall also assist in the transfer to Genentech and the validation of data within Relevant Information.

 

8.2 Compliance with Privacy Laws. Notwithstanding Section 8.1, XOMA has no obligation to make disclosures prohibited by law or contract. XOMA shall use Commercially Reasonable and Diligent Efforts to obtain all necessary consents required for disclosure of the data and reports which XOMA is required to provide to Genentech pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that any such consent can not be obtained, XOMA shall provide to Genentech data and documentation that have been redacted to make disclosure lawful.

 

8.3 Complaints.

8.5 Adverse Drug Events. The Parties recognize that the holder of a Drug Approval Application may be required to submit information and file reports to various governmental agencies on compounds under clinical investigation, compounds proposed for marketing or marketed drugs. Such information must be submitted at the time of initial filing for investigational use in humans and at the time of a request for market approval of a new drug. In addition, supplemental information must be provided on compounds at periodic intervals and adverse drug experiences must be reported at more frequent intervals depending on the severity of the experience. Consequently, XOMA shall provide Genentech with the following information and reports of which it has knowledge:

 

(a) for initial and/or periodic submission to government agencies, significant information relating to Licensed Product from preclinical laboratory, animal toxicology and pharmacology studies, as well as adverse drug experience reports from Clinical Trials and registries with a Licensed Product, to the extent XOMA has such information in its possession or control;

 

(b) all adverse drug event information for any Licensed Product of which XOMA is or becomes aware;

 

(c) in connection with a Licensed Product in a Clinical Trial conducted for approval by a regulatory agency, reports of any Unexpected Adverse Event (defined below) or Serious Adverse Event (defined below), within [*] of the initial receipt of a report of such event or sooner if required for Genentech to comply with regulatory requirements; and

 

(d) for a Licensed Product that has received Regulatory Approval, a report of any adverse event for that Licensed Product that is a Serious Adverse Event and or an Unexpected Adverse Event, within [*] of the initial receipt of a report or sooner if required for Genentech to comply with regulatory requirements.

 

Serious Adverse Event” is any event that suggests a significant hazard, contraindication, side effect or precaution, or any event that is fatal or life threatening, is permanently disabling, requires or prolongs inpatient hospitalization or is a congenital anomaly, cancer or overdose.
