AMENDMENT NO. THREE
TO
THIS AMENDMENT NUMBER THREE TO LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR INTERFERON GAMMA (“Amendment”) is entered into effective April 27, 1999 (the “Amendment Effective Date”), by and between Genentech, Inc. (“Genentech”) and Connetics Corporation (“Connetics”). Genentech and Connetics may each be referred to herein as a “Party” and jointly as the “Parties.”
RECITALS
| A. | The Parties have previously entered into that certain License Agreement for Interferon Gamma, dated May 5, 1998, as amended on December 23, 1998 and on January 15, 1999 (the “License Agreement”). |
| B. | Pursuant to Section 2.3(c) of the License Agreement, Connetics has the right to sublicense certain of its rights under the Agreement to InterMune Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“InterMune”), and has in fact entered into such sublicense to that effect dated August 21, 1998. |
| C. | The Parties have entered into that certain letter agreement dated January 5, 1999 and revised on March 1, 1999 (the “Letter Agreement”), documenting the intent and agreement of Connetics and Genentech with respect to certain additional rights to be granted to Connetics and its sublicensees under the Genentech License, pending the preparation of an amendment to the License Agreement. |
| D. | In consideration of such additional rights, InterMune will issue to Genentech shares of Genentech Series A-1 Preferred InterMune stock on the terms and conditions set forth in that certain stock purchase agreement between Genentech and InterMune of even date herewith. |
| E. | The Parties now desire to enter into a definitive amendment to the License Agreement, as of the Amendment Effective Date, through which Genentech shall grant, and Connetics and InterMune shall accept, such certain additional rights under the License Agreement. |
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and conditions herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties mutually agree as follows:
| 1. | Terms not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings defined in the License Agreement. |
| 2. | A new Section 1.7.1 is hereby added to read in its entirety as follows: |
1.7.1 “Combination Product Adjustment” shall mean the following: in the event that a Licensed Product is sold in the form of a combination product containing one or more active ingredients or components in addition to such Licensed Product, Net Sales for such combination product will be adjusted by multiplying actual Net Sales of such combination product by the fraction A/(A + B) where A is the invoice price of the Licensed Product, if sold separately, and B is the invoice price of any other active ingredient(s) or component(s) in the combination, if sold separately. If, on a country-by-country basis, the other active ingredient(s) or component(s) in the combination are not sold separately in said country, Net Sales shall be calculated by multiplying actual Net Sales of such combination product by the fraction A/C where A is the invoice price of the Licensed Product if sold separately, and C is the invoice price of the combination product. If, on a country-by-country basis, neither the Licensed Product nor the other active ingredient(s) or component(s) of the combination product is sold separately in said country, Net Sales allocable to the Licensed Product shall be determined by mutual agreement reached in good faith by the Parties based on an equitable method of determining such Net Sales that, among other considerations, takes into account, on a country-by-country basis, variations in potency, the relative contribution of each active ingredient or component in the combination product and the relative value to the end-user of each active ingredient or component.
| 3. | Section 1.12 of the License Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety as follows: |
1.12 “Field of Use” shall mean the administration to humans of Licensed Protein Product for the treatment or prevention of any human disease or condition, […***…]. Each “indication” listed on Exhibit E attached hereto shall be referred to herein individually as an “Area of the Field of Use” and collectively as “Areas of the Field of Use.”
| 4. | A new Section 1.15.1 is hereby added to the Agreement to read in its entirety as follows: |
