(B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the deductions permitted in Clause 18.2(A) shall not cause the royalty rate payable on Net Sales to Genmab to be lower than [***] percent [***] of those relevant Net Sales (or [***] percent [***] of the relevant Net Sales where the operation of Clause 17.2 also applies), regardless of the total amount of such Net Sales. Subject to the foregoing, any amount that has not been effectively deducted pursuant Clause 18.2(A) for whatever reason in a particular Calendar Quarter may be rolled over into subsequent Calendar Quarters until the full amount has been fully credited against royalties due in subsequent Calendar Quarters.
