The indemnifying party shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of counsel and other professional advisors (including accountants) employed by the indemnified party; provided that in no event shall the indemnifying party be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances; provided, however, that if any indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded (based on the advice of counsel) that its representation by counsel for the indemnified parties creates a conflict of interest for such counsel, the indemnifying parties shall be liable for the fees and expenses of a separate counsel for such indemnified party.

(ii)The indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of a Third Party Claim, individually or jointly, through its counsel, at its own expense; provided that with respect to any Third Party Claim, the indemnified party shall control all proceedings in connection with such Third Party Claim and, without limiting the foregoing, may in its sole discretion pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any Governmental Authority with respect thereto, and, subject to Section 6.5(a)(iii), may, in its sole discretion, either pay the amount claimed and sue for a refund where applicable Law permits such refund suits or settle or contest the Third Party Claim.

(iii)So long as the indemnifying party is participating in the defense of a Third Party Claim in good faith, the indemnified party shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party by providing records and information to the indemnifying party that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim. The indemnified party shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such settlement contains a full release of the indemnifying party.

(b)Procedures for Direct Claims. In the event any indemnified party should have a claim against any indemnifying party under this Agreement that does not involve a Third

​

​

​

Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such indemnified party (a “Direct Claim”), the indemnified party shall deliver notice of such Direct Claim with reasonable promptness to the indemnifying party. The failure by any indemnified party to so notify the indemnifying party hereunder shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent (and only to the extent) that the indemnifying party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure. If the indemnifying party does not notify the indemnified party within 30 calendar days that it disputes its liability to the indemnified party, such Direct Claim specified by the indemnified party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party and the indemnifying party shall pay the amount of such liability to the indemnified party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the Direct Claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such Direct Claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined.

Section 6.6.Limitations on Indemnities from Seller and Seller Parent. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article VI:

(a)Seller and Seller Parent shall not be liable for any Losses indemnifiable pursuant to Section 6.2(a) (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations) (i) unless the claim (or series of related claims arising from substantially the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) to which such Losses relate involves Losses in excess of [***] Dollars ($[***]) (the “De Minimis Amount”) and if such claim for Losses does not exceed the De Minimis Amount, such claim for Losses shall not be applied to or considered for purposes of the Deductible or otherwise for purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of the Buyer Indemnitees’ Losses under this Section 6.6(a) and (ii) until the aggregate amount of the Buyer Indemnitees’ Losses exceeds $[***] (the “Deductible”), after which Seller and Seller Parent shall only be obligated for such Losses of the Buyer Indemnitees in excess of the Deductible; provided, however, that the cumulative indemnification obligation of Seller and Seller Parent under Section 6.2(a) (other than the indemnification obligation of Seller and Seller Parent with respect to the Fundamental Representations) shall in no event exceed $[***];

(b)Seller and Seller Parent shall not be liable for any Losses indemnifiable pursuant to Section 6.2(a) with respect to Fundamental Representations in excess of an amount equal to $[***]; and

(c)The Parties acknowledge and agree that if any Buyer Indemnitee has any indemnification claims under Section 6.2 for which such Buyer Indemnitee may seek recovery of the relevant Losses from a Third Party under an AstraZeneca Contract or an Assumed Contract, such Buyer Indemnitee shall seek recovery with respect to such claims as follows (i) first, from the applicable Third Party under the applicable AstraZeneca Contract or Assumed Contract and (ii) second, to the extent recovery from the Third Party under Section 6.6(c)(i) has been exhausted or is otherwise unavailable, from Seller and Seller Parent pursuant to the terms of this Article VI.

Section ▇.▇.▇▇▇ Treatment. Any payments made pursuant to this Article VI shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal and all applicable state or local income Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by a change in

​

​

​

applicable Law after the date hereof or the good faith resolution of an income Tax audit or other Tax proceeding.

Section 6.8.Exclusive Remedy. Except with respect to Fraud, an indemnified party’s right to indemnification under this Article VI constitutes such indemnified party’s sole and exclusive monetary remedy for Losses from any indemnifying party with respect to any inaccuracy in, or breach of, any representation or warranty or breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation or undertaking in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement.

Section 8.4.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by electronic transmission), all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party.

Section 8.5.Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the other Related Documents constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Related Documents. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and is not intended to and does not confer upon any Person other than the Parties any legal or equitable rights or remedies hereunder.

Section 8.6.Specific Performance and Equitable Remedies. Each of the Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if the Parties do not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof and that the non-breaching counterparty shall be entitled to equitable remedies, including, but not limited to, obtaining an injunction and/or specific performance to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which it is entitled at Law or in equity.

performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction.

Section 8.7.Assignment. Seller and Seller Parent may not assign any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Buyer, and any assignment without such consent shall be null and void.

Section 8.8.GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THEREOF.

Section 8.9.Enforcement.

(a)Each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of (i) the state courts of New York located in New York County, and (ii) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions. Each Party agrees to commence any such action, suit or proceeding either in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or if such suit, action or other proceeding may not be brought in such court for jurisdictional reasons, in the state courts of New York located in New York County. Each Party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by the U.S. registered mail to such Party’s respective address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in New York with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 8.9. Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions in (x) the state courts of New York located in New York County, and (y) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and hereby and thereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b)EACH PARTY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL OF ANY ISSUE BY JURY. Each Party (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of the other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such Party would not, in the event of any action, suit or proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other Party has been induced to enter into this Agreement, by, among other things, the mutual waiver and certifications in this Section 8.9(b).

(c)The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise

breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the state courts of New York located in New York County, and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity and as further set forth in this Section 8.9.

Section 8.10.Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement or any Related Document is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement or such Related Document shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement or such Related Document so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 8.11.Amendment; Waiver. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Party against whom enforcement of any such modification, amendment or waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of either Party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance by the other Party with any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation contained herein. The waiver by either Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. Neither the failure of either Party to enforce, nor the delay of either Party in enforcing, any condition or part of this Agreement at any time shall be construed as a waiver of that condition or part or forfeit any rights to future enforcement thereof.

Section 8.12.Bulk Transfer Laws. Buyer hereby waives compliance by Seller and its Affiliates with the requirements and provisions of any “bulk-transfer” Laws or similar Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets to Buyer.
