Technology Transfer Subject to the terms of the Development Supply Agreement, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date, Alnylam shall initiate a technology transfer to MedCo, or to its Third Party manufacturer(s) of Licensed Product, selected by MedCo and reasonably acceptable to Alnylam, of Alnylam Know-How that is reasonably necessary or useful for the Manufacture of the Licensed Product, and shall make available its personnel on a reasonable basis to consult with MedCo or such Third Party manufacturer(s) with respect thereto, all at MedCo’s expense, including the Costs reasonably incurred by Alnylam in connection with such technology transfer activities. MedCo shall reimburse Alnylam such Costs incurred with respect to such Manufacturing technology transfer within [***] days after receipt of an invoice therefor. Alnylam and its Affiliates shall keep complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to enable the payments payable hereunder to be determined. Alnylam shall not be required to perform technology transfer to more than one Third Party manufacturer for each stage of the Licensed Product supply chain (i.e., Bulk Drug Substance, Bulk Drug Product and Finished Product). Promptly after MedCo’s written request, Alnylam shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to assign to MedCo any manufacturing agreement between Alnylam and a Third Party that is solely related to the manufacture of Licensed Products. Such assignment shall be subject to the terms and conditions of such agreement, including any required consents of such Third Party and MedCo’s written agreement to assume all the obligations of Alnylam under such agreement to be undertaken after such assignment, but Alnylam shall remain solely responsible for its obligations under such agreement arising prior to such assignment. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, MedCo shall be solely responsible for contracting with such Third Party manufacturer (and any other Third Party manufacture to whom Alnylam has initiated technology transfer as set forth in this Section 5.3) for the supply of such Licensed Product and Alnylam shall have no obligations under such agreement between MedCo and such Third Party manufacturer. Alnylam shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain any such consent in a form reasonably acceptable to MedCo.
Notice and Procedure Promptly after the Indemnified Party receives any claim or notice of the commencement of any action, administrative or legal proceeding, or investigation as to which the indemnity provided for in Sections 23.1 through 23.3 may apply, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such fact; provided, however, that the rights of the Indemnified Party shall not be forfeited by the failure to give the Indemnifying Party notice to the extent that said failure does not have a material and adverse effect on the defense of the matter. The Indemnifying Party shall assume on behalf of the Indemnified Party, and conduct with due diligence and in good faith, the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such action or investigation unless approved by the Indemnified Party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be represented in any such action or investigation by advisory counsel of its own selection and at its own expense, and (b) if the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that (i) there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from, or additional to, or inconsistent with, those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (ii) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, then, in either case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on its own behalf and the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnified Party for the fees and expenses of such separate counsel. If any claim, action, proceeding or investigation arises as to which the indemnity provided for in Section 23.1, 23.2 or 23.3 applies and the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of such claim, action, proceeding or investigation, then the Indemnified Party may, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, contest or settle such claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall remain obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party for any and all losses, damages, and liability (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) associated therewith. The payment of the indemnity pursuant to this Section 23.5 shall not be predicated on the Indemnified Party having made payment on any suit, action, loss, damage, claim or liability.
