Section 16.1, any and all sublicenses granted by Memory similarly shall become fully paid up as to NPS.

ARTICLE 3

DILIGENCE

3.1 Diligence. Memory shall use reasonable diligence in proceeding with the development, including: pursuing a clinical candidate; conducting safety and efficacy trials; obtaining required Regulatory Approvals; manufacturing; marketing; and sale of Products and/or Memory Products, at Memory’s option, in the Major Market Countries.

Reasonable diligence as used in this paragraph shall mean the same standard of effort as used by Memory, or in any case not less than common in the industry taken as a whole, in the research, development, clinical testing, manufacturing, marketing and sale of a product which (i) must receive regulatory approval in Major Market Countries and (ii) has similar potential as the Product or Memory Product, as the case may be, taking into account scientific, business and marketing and return on investment considerations. It is understood that such Product or Memory Product potential may change from time to time based upon changing scientific, business, marketing and return on investment considerations. The Parties also acknowledge that, even within the Major Market Countries, Memory (and its Affiliates) does not always seek to market its own products in every such country or seek to obtain regulatory approval in every such country or for every potential indication. As a result, the exercise by Memory of reasonable diligence is to be determined by judging its efforts taken as a whole in the following regions on a region-by-region basis (the regions being [*]).

[* ]

In the event of a dispute between the Parties with respect to whether Memory has complied with its obligation under this Section 3.1, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Article 17. The consequences of any termination under this Section shall be as set forth in Sections 16.3(e), 16.5 and Article 17.

ARTICLE 4

PAYMENTS TO NPS

4.1 Milestones. Memory shall pay NPS $[*] ([*] dollars) upon [*].

Notwithstanding the above, for each NPS Compound and Memory Compound, Memory shall pay NPS the following milestones for Products and Memory Products being developed by Memory, which shall be non-refundable and non-creditable, and due and payable as follows:


		Event	Payment (US$)

A.	(i)	*[]**	$*[]**

[*] CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT IS REQUESTED


		Event	Payment (US$)

	(ii)	*[]**	$*[]**

	(iii)	*[]**	$*[]**

	(iv)	*[]**	$*[]**

B.	(i)	*[]**	$*[]**

	(ii)	*[]**	$*[]**

	(iii)	*[]**	$*[]**

Each payment in this Section 4.1 shall be due and payable by Memory within [*] days after occurrence of the applicable event, with the exception of [*] events, in which the payments shall be due and payable by Memory within [*] days after occurrence of the [*] event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Memory will make each of such payments only once, for each NPS Compound and/or Memory Compound for a given indication upon the first occurrence of a respective event, regardless of how many times the event may be achieved. For the avoidance of doubt, if a product constitutes both a Product and a Memory Product, each such payment shall be due only once with respect to such product.

In the event a milestone payment for a given event for a given NPS Compound or Memory Compound and indication becomes due, and Memory has not made payment for such NPS Compound or Memory Compound in such indication for a milestone listed prior to the milestone payment due, then Memory shall pay the milestone that is due and all prior listed milestones that were not previously paid.

The costs Memory incurred for the validation of the patents in European countries for European patent application no. [*] or no. [*] pursuant to Section 13.2(b)(v) (which costs totaled, in the aggregate, $[*]) will be directly subtracted from owed milestone payments, starting with the [*] and including subsequent milestones due until validation costs incurred by Memory equals withheld milestones. For the avoidance of doubt, as a result of such subtraction, (a) Memory has not and shall not be required to make payment of the [*], and (b) the milestone payment due with respect to the [*] shall be reduced from $[*] to $[*]. As set forth in Section 13.2(b)(iii), Memory shall not incur or be required to pay any additional costs in connection with the validation of the patents in European countries for European patent application no. [*] or no. [*] and, accordingly, no further subtraction beyond the subtraction described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be applied.

18.8 No Agency. Nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute either Party as the agent or representative of the other Party. Each Party shall be an independent contractor, not an employee or partner of the other Party. Each Party shall be responsible for the conduct of activities at its own facilities and for any liabilities resulting therefrom. Neither Party shall be responsible for the acts or omissions of the other Party, and neither Party will have authority to speak for, represent or obligate the other Party in any way without prior written authority from the other Party.

18.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Schedules hereto (which Schedules are deemed to be a part of this Agreement for all purposes) contain the full understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior understandings and writings relating thereto. No waiver, alteration or modification of any of the provisions hereof shall be binding unless made in writing and signed by the Parties.

18.10 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered in construing this Agreement.

18.11 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it is invalid or in conflict with any law of any relevant jurisdiction, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected, and the Parties shall negotiate a substitute provision that, to the extent possible, accomplishes the original business purpose. During the period of such negotiation, and thereafter if no substituted provision is agreed upon, any such provision which is enforceable in part but not in whole shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

18.12 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, except to an Affiliate of the assigning Party or to any other party who acquires all or substantially all of the pharmaceutical business of the assigning Party by merger, sale of assets or otherwise, so long as such Affiliate or other party agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

18.13 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns under Section 18.12.

18.14 Interpretation. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” All references herein to Articles, Sections, and Schedules shall be deemed references to Articles and Sections of, and Schedules to, this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with international accounting standards (“IAS”), as in effect from time to time. Unless the context otherwise requires, countries shall include territories.
