Common use of Reduction of Royalties Clause in Contracts

Reduction of Royalties. If CTI initiates legal proceedings under Section 6.4 of the License Agreement and TGTX joins pursuant to this Section 6.4, then TGTX shall have the same rights as CTI has under Section 6.4(c)(iii) of the License Agreement. Additionally, if TGTX prosecutes pursuant Section 6.4(i) of this Agreement after CTI decides not to prosecute and neither DFCI nor CTI independently join the proceeding, then TGTX may deduct up to * percent (*%) of TGTX’s documented costs and expenses of the proceeding (including reasonable attorney fees) from running and minimum royalties payable to CTI under Section 5.7(a) of this Agreement from sales of Licensed Products covered by the patent(s)-in suit. However, TGTX may not reduce CTI’s royalty payments by more than fifty percent of the amount otherwise due under Article V. If * percent (*%) of TGTX’s costs and expenses exceed the amount of royalties deducted by TGTX for any calendar year, TGTX may, to that extent, reduce the royalties due to CTI in succeeding calendar quarters for so long as TGTX is actively engaged in legal proceedings to terminate the Substantial Infringement. However, TGTX may not reduce total royalties due to CTI in a given calendar quarter by more than * percent (*%). TGTX’s right to reduce royalty payments to CTI under this paragraph 6.4(c)(iii) applies only for so long as the Substantial Infringement continues.
