14.2.Arbitration. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, should the Parties fail to agree within two months after such dispute has first arisen, it will be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) as in force at the time when initiating the arbitration. The tribunal will consist of three arbitrators. The place of arbitration will be New York City, New York, US and the arbitration will be governed by the Laws of the State of New York. The language to be used will be English. Documents submitted in the arbitration (the originals of which are not in English) will be submitted together with an English translation.

(a)Arbitrators.

(i)Licensors collectively, on the one hand, and Licensee, on the other hand, will each nominate one arbitrator who are retired judges, attorneys or those with applicable experience in the relevant area (i.e., safety with respect to recalls) with at least 10 years of relevant experience in the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industry, each of whom will be impartial and independent. Should the claimant fail to appoint an arbitrator in the request for arbitration within 30 days of being requested to do so, or if the respondent should fail to appoint an arbitrator in its answer to the request for arbitration within 30 days of being requested to do so, any other Party will request the AAA to make such appointment.

(ii)The two arbitrators nominated by the Parties will, within 30 days from the appointment of the arbitrator nominated in the answer to the request for arbitration, and after consultation with the Parties, agree and appoint a third arbitrator, who will act as a chairman of the three arbitrator committee (the “Arbitral Tribunal”). Should such procedure not result in an appointment within the 30 day time period set forth in Section 14.2(a)(i) (Arbitrators), any Party will be free to request the AAA to appoint the third arbitrator.

(iii)Where there is more than one claimant or more than one respondent, the multiple claimants or respondents will jointly appoint one arbitrator.

(iv)If any Party-appointed arbitrator or the third arbitrator resigns or ceases to be able to act, a replacement will be appointed in accordance with the arrangements provided for in this clause.

(b)Decisions; Timing of Decisions.

(i)The arbitrators will render a written opinion setting forth findings of fact and conclusions of law with the reason therefor stated, within no later than six months from the date on which the arbitrators were appointed to the dispute. A transcript of the evidence adduced at the arbitration hearing will be made and, upon request, will be made available to each Party.

(ii)The time periods set forth in the AAA Arbitration Rules will be followed; provided, however, that the arbitrators may modify such time periods as reasonably necessary to render a written opinion in accordance with this Section 14.2(b) (Decisions; Timing of Decisions).

(iii)The Arbitrator is empowered to award any remedy allowed by law, including money damages, prejudgment interest and attorneys’ fees, and to grant final, complete, interim, or interlocutory relief, including injunctive relief.

(iv)This arbitration agreement does not preclude any Party seeking conservatory or interim measures from any court of competent jurisdiction including the courts having jurisdiction by reason of such Party’s domicile. Conservatory or interim measures sought by any Party in any one or more jurisdictions will not preclude the Arbitral Tribunal granting conservatory or interim measures. Conservatory or interim

36


CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS BOTH (I) NOT MATERIAL AND (II) IS THE TYPE THAT THE REGISTRANT TREATS AS PRIVATE OR CONFIDENTIAL.

measures sought by any Party before the Arbitral Tribunal will not preclude any court of competent jurisdiction granting conservatory or interim measures.

(v)In the event that any such dispute will arise that is not clearly provided for in this Section 14.2(b) (Decisions; Timing of Decisions), the matter will be resolved in accordance with the AAA Arbitration Rules.

(vi)Any arbitration proceeding hereunder will be confidential and the arbitrators will issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard each Party’s Confidential Information. Except as required by Applicable Law or in a proceeding to enforce the results of the arbitration, no Party will make (or instruct the arbitrators to make) any public announcement with respect to the proceedings or decision of the arbitrators without prior written consent of the other Parties. The existence of any dispute submitted to arbitration, and the award, will be kept in confidence by the Parties and the arbitrators, except as required in connection with the enforcement of such award or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

(vii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any and all issues regarding the scope, construction, validity or enforceability of any Patent will be determined in a court of competent jurisdiction under the local patent laws of the jurisdictions having issued the Patent in question.

(viii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any and all issues regarding a breach or alleged breach of a Party’s obligations under Section 10 (Confidential Information and Publicity) will be determined in a court of competent jurisdiction under the laws of the State of New York, with express exclusion of its conflict of laws principles.

(ix)Fees, costs and expenses of arbitration are to be divided by the Parties in the following manner: Licensors will pay for the arbitrator Licensors choose; Licensee will pay for the arbitrator it chooses; and the Parties will share payment equally for the third arbitrator.

14.3.Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of laws principles that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.

14.4.Award. Any award to be paid by one Party to another Party as determined by the arbitrators as set forth above under Section 14.2 (Arbitration) will be promptly paid in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset; and any costs, fees or taxes incident to enforcing the award will, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the Party resisting enforcement. Each Party agrees to abide by the award rendered in any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 14 (Dispute Resolution), and agrees that, subject to the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, judgment may be entered upon the final award in the Federal District Court for the State of New York and that other courts may award full faith and credit to such judgment in order to enforce such award. The award will include interest from the date of any damages incurred for breach of this Agreement, and from the date of the award until paid in full, at a rate fixed by the arbitrator.

14.5.Injunctive Relief; Remedy for Breach of Exclusivity. Nothing in this Section 14 (Dispute Resolution) will preclude any Party from seeking equitable relief or interim or provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim equitable relief, concerning a dispute either prior to or during any arbitration if necessary to protect the interests of such Party or to preserve the status quo pending the arbitration proceeding. Therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies otherwise available at law, including the recovery of damages for breach of this Agreement, such non-breaching Party will be entitled to seek (a) equitable relief, specifically including both interim and permanent restraining orders and injunctions and (b) such other and further equitable relief as the court may deem proper under the circumstances. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 14.5 (Injunctive Relief; Remedy for Breach of Exclusivity)

37


CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS BOTH (I) NOT MATERIAL AND (II) IS THE TYPE THAT THE REGISTRANT TREATS AS PRIVATE OR CONFIDENTIAL.

will otherwise limit a breaching Party’s opportunity to cure a material breach as permitted in accordance with Section 14.2 (Arbitration).

14.6.Confidentiality. The arbitration proceeding will be confidential and the arbitrator will issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard each Party’s Confidential Information. Except as required by law, no Party will make (or instruct the arbitrator to make) any public announcement with respect to the proceedings or decision of the arbitrator without prior written consent of the other Parties. The existence of any dispute submitted to arbitration, and the award, will be kept in confidence by the Parties and the arbitrator, except as required in connection with the enforcement of such award or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

14.7.Survivability. Any duty to arbitrate under this Agreement will remain in effect and be enforceable after termination of this Agreement for any reason.

14.8.Jurisdiction. For the purposes of this Section 14 (Dispute Resolution), the Parties acknowledge their diversity (Licensee having a principal place of business in the State of California and Licensors having their principal places of business in the State of Connecticut and the State of New York), and except as provided in Section 14.9 (Patent and Trademark Dispute), agree to accept the jurisdiction of any United States District Court located in New York for the purposes of enforcing or appealing any awards entered pursuant to this Section 14 (Dispute Resolution) and for enforcing the agreements reflected in this Section 14 (Dispute Resolution) and agree not to commence any action, suit or proceeding related thereto except in such courts.

14.9.Patent and Trademark Disputes. Notwithstanding Section 14.2 (Arbitration), any dispute, controversy or claim relating to the scope, validity, enforceability or infringement of any Licensed Patents, Licensee Collaboration Patents, Joint Collaboration Patents, or Product Marks covering the manufacture, use, importation, offer for sale, or sale of Licensed Products will be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction in the country in which such Patent or trademark rights were granted or arose.

Section 15.General Provisions.

15.1.Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, including the Schedules hereto, and the Ancillary Agreements set forth the complete, final and exclusive agreement and all the covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral and including the Confidentiality Agreement; providedthat all “Confidential Information” disclosed or received by a Party thereunder will be deemed “Confidential Information” disclosed or received by such Party under this Agreement and will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

No Party will be held liable to the other Parties nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in performing any obligation under this Agreement to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by or results from causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party that are not reasonably foreseeable or avoidable, potentially including embargoes, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), insurrections, riots, civil commotions, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, fire, earthquakes, floods, pandemics, or other acts of God (providedthat such failure or delay could not have been prevented by the exercise of skill, diligence, and prudence that would be reasonably and ordinarily expected from a skilled and experienced person engaged in the same type of undertaking under the same or similar circumstances) (each a “Force Majeure Event”). The affected Party will notify the other Parties of such force majeure circumstances as soon as reasonably practical and will promptly undertake all reasonable efforts necessary to cure such force majeure circumstances and resume performance of its obligations hereunder. If the failure to perform due to such Force Majeure Event continues for a period of 180 days or more, then the unaffected Parties may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other Parties.

15.5.No Strict Construction; Headings. This Agreement has been prepared jointly and will not be strictly construed against any Party. Ambiguities, if any, in this Agreement will not be construed against any Party, irrespective of which Party may be deemed to have authored the ambiguous provision. The headings of each Section in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to limit or expand on the meaning of the language contained in the particular Section.

15.6.Assignment.

(a)No Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Parties; providedthat a Party may assign or transfer this Agreement without the other Parties’ consent (but with written notice to the other Parties promptly following such assignment or transfer) to an Affiliate, or to a successor to all or substantially all of the business or assets to which this Agreement relates, whether by merger, sale of stock, sale of assets, reorganization, consolidation, royalty factoring or other similar transaction or series of transactions. Any permitted successor or assignee of rights or obligations hereunder will, in a writing to the other Parties, expressly assume performance of such rights or obligations (and in any event, any Party assigning this Agreement to an Affiliate will remain bound by the terms and conditions hereof). Any permitted assignment will be binding on the successors of the assigning Party. Any assignment or attempted assignment by any Party in violation of the terms of this Section 15.6 (Assignment) will be null, void and of no legal effect.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 15.6(a) (Assignment) or elsewhere in this Agreement, a Licensor may assign to a Third Party, in whole or in part, such Licensor’s right to receive the Milestone Payments or Royalties payable to such Licensor under Section 8 (Payments) (such assignment, a “Securitization Transaction”). In

40


CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS BOTH (I) NOT MATERIAL AND (II) IS THE TYPE THAT THE REGISTRANT TREATS AS PRIVATE OR CONFIDENTIAL.

connection with an actual or contemplated Securitization Transaction, such Licensor may disclose to such Third Party the terms of this Agreement, [*], notices of achievement of Milestone Events to be provided by Licensee under Section 8.2(b) (Notice; Payment) or Section 8.3(b) (Notice; Payment), Royalty Reports, audit reports contemplated under Section 8.6(d) (Records and Audits), and any other reports reasonably requested by such Third Party, in each case, without the prior written consent of Licensee, to enable such Third Party to evaluate, or exercise its rights with respect to, such Securitization Transaction; providedthat such Third Party is under obligations of confidentiality and non-use with respect to such Confidential Information that are no less stringent than the terms of Section 10 (Confidential Information and Publicity) (but of duration customary in confidentiality agreements entered into for a similar purpose).

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 15.6(a) (Assignment) or elsewhere in this Agreement, Licensee may, without the prior written consent of Licensors, collaterally assign, pledge, hypothecate, or grant a security interest in this Agreement and any or all of Licensee’s rights hereunder to one or more lenders, agents, or trustees providing financing to Licensee or any of its Affiliates (each, a “Secured Party”), solely as collateral security for indebtedness or other obligations of Licensee or its Affiliates. No such collateral assignment will release Licensee from any of its obligations under this Agreement.

15.7.Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver (or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered) such further instruments, and to do (or cause to be done) all such other acts, as may be necessary or appropriate or as any other Party may reasonably request in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

15.8.Compliance with Applicable Law. Each Party will comply with Applicable Law in the course of performing its obligations or exercising its rights pursuant to this Agreement, including Anti-Corruption Laws. Each Party will take no action that would cause another Party to be in violation of Anti-Corruption Laws. Further, each Party will notify the other Parties if such Party has any information or suspicion that there may be a violation of Anti-Corruption Laws in connection with the performance of this Agreement.

15.9.Interpretation. The captions and headings to this Agreement are for convenience only, and are to be of no force or effect in construing or interpreting any of the provisions of this Agreement. Unless specified to the contrary, references to Sections or Schedules mean the particular Sections of, or Schedules to, this Agreement and references to this Agreement include all Schedules hereto. Unless context otherwise clearly requires, whenever used in this Agreement: (a) the words “include” or “including” will be construed as incorporating, also, “but not limited to” or “without limitation;” (b) the word “day” or “year” means a calendar day or year unless otherwise specified; (c) the word “notice” means notice in writing (whether or not specifically stated) and will include notices, consents, approvals and other written communications contemplated under this Agreement; (d) the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and derivative or similar words refer to this Agreement (including any Schedules); (e) the word “or” will be construed as the inclusive meaning identified with the phrase “and/or;” (f) provisions that require that a Party or the Parties hereunder “agree,” “consent” or “approve” or the like will require that such agreement, consent or approval be specific and in writing, whether by written agreement, letter or otherwise and that consents not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; (g) words of any gender include the other gender; (h) words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively; (i) the words “shall” and “will” have the same meaning and may be used interchangeably; and (j) unless expressly stated, dollar amounts set forth herein are U.S. dollars. Ambiguities and uncertainties in this Agreement, if any, will not be interpreted against any Party, irrespective of which Party may be deemed to have caused the ambiguity or uncertainty to exist. This Agreement has been prepared in the English language, and the English language will control its interpretation. In addition, all notices required or permitted to be given hereunder, and all written, electronic, oral or other communications between the Parties regarding this Agreement will be in the English language.

15.10.Severability. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or by any court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be or is taken, the provision will be considered severed from this Agreement and will not serve to invalidate

41


CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS BOTH (I) NOT MATERIAL AND (II) IS THE TYPE THAT THE REGISTRANT TREATS AS PRIVATE OR CONFIDENTIAL.

any remaining provisions hereof. The Parties will make a good faith effort to replace any invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable one such that the objectives contemplated by the Parties when entering into this Agreement may be realized.

15.11.No Waiver. Any failure or delay in enforcing a Party’s rights under this Agreement or any waiver as to a particular default or other matter will not constitute a waiver of such Party’s rights to the future enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, except with respect to an express written and signed waiver relating to a particular matter for a particular period of time. No waiver will be effective unless it has been given in writing and signed by any authorized representative of the Party giving such waiver.

15.12.Relationship of Parties. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or will be deemed to constitute a partnership, agency, employer-employee or joint venture relationship between the Parties. No Party will incur any debts or make any commitments for the other, except to the extent, if at all, specifically provided therein. There are no express or implied Third Party beneficiaries hereunder (except for Licensor Indemnitees and Licensee Indemnitees for purposes of Section 12).

15.13.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via electronic mail, including Adobe™ Portable Document Format (PDF) or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. Federal SIGN Act of 2000, and any counterpart so delivered will be deemed to be original signatures, will be valid and binding upon the Parties, and, upon delivery, will constitute due execution of this Agreement.

Section 16.Government Approvals.

16.1.Each of Arvinas and Licensee will, within [*] after the execution of this Agreement file with the United States Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and the Antitrust Division of the United States of America Department of Justice (“DOJ”) any HSR Filing required of it under the HSR Act, together with all other applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to antitrust and competition law and compliance (such laws, rules and regulations, the “Competition Laws”) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Arvinas and Licensee will cooperate with one another to the extent necessary in the preparation of any such HSR Filing and Competition Law Filings. [*] In the event that Arvinas and Licensee make an HSR Filing under this Section 16 (Government Approvals), this Agreement will terminate (a) at the election of either such Party, immediately upon notice to the other Party, in the event that the FTC or the DOJ obtains a preliminary injunction under the HSR Act against Arvinas and Licensee to enjoin the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (b) at the election of either such Party, immediately upon notice to the other Party, in the event that the Antitrust Clearance Date will not have occurred on or prior to [*] after the effective date of the HSR Filing (the “Outside Date”); providedthat the Outside Date may be extended by Licensee upon written notice to Arvinas prior to the expiration of the then-applicable Outside Date for a period of [*]. As used herein: (x) “Antitrust Clearance Date” means the date on which all applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act and Competition Law with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have expired or have been terminated; (y) “HSR Act” means the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; and (z) “HSR Filing” and “Competition Law Filing” means a filing by Arvinas and Licensee with, and that has been accepted by, the FTC and DOJ of a Notification and Report Form for Certain Mergers and Acquisitions (as that term is defined in the HSR Act) and under Competition Law with respect to the matters set forth in this Agreement, together with all required documentary attachments thereto.

16.2.Each of Arvinas and Licensee will, in connection with any HSR Filing, (a) reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with any communication, filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party; (b) keep the other Party or its counsel informed of any communication received by such Party from, or given by such Party to, the FTC, the DOJ or any other U.S. or other Governmental Authority and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (c) consult with each other in advance of any meeting or conference with the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Authority or, in connection with any

42

proceeding by a private party, with any other Person, and to the extent permitted by the FTC, the DOJ or such other Governmental Authority or other Person, [*]. Arvinas and Licensee, as each deems advisable and necessary, may reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material to be provided to the other under this Section 16.2 as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material.” Such materials and the information contained therein will be given only to the outside antitrust counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Arvinas or Licensee, as the case may be) or its legal counsel.

16.3.To the extent Licensors agree to conduct any pre-Effective Date activities to assist with day one readiness, such agreement must be in writing and Licensee will reimburse Licensors for such agreed activities, even if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 16.

16.4.If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 16, then, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Party will have any further obligation to the other Party with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except that the Parties hereto will remain bound by the provisions of this Section 16.4, Section 10 (Confidential Information and Publicity), Section 12.5 (Limitation of Liability), Section 15 (General Provisions) and Section 16.3; provided, that nothing herein will relieve a defaulting or breaching party from any liability or damages arising out of its breach of any provision of this Agreement that was effective prior to the Effective Date as set forth in Section 13.1.
