18.3 Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy, or claim between the Parties that may arise from time to time pursuant to this Agreement relating to either Party’s rights or obligations hereunder that is not resolved through good faith negotiation between the Parties shall be resolved in accordance with Article 14 of the License Agreement.
18.4 Audits. Each Party will maintain complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to permit the other Party to confirm the accuracy of the calculation of any amounts due under this Agreement. In accordance with Section 9.6 of the License Agreement, each Party shall have the right to have an independent certified public accountant verify the accuracy of the calculation of such amounts due under this Agreement. In addition, in accordance with the Quality Agreement, Myovant shall have the right, upon at least [***] Business Days’ notice to Takeda, and such date to be reasonably agreed upon by the Parties, either by itself or through independent outside auditors or consultants, not more than [***] per Fiscal Year during the Term of this Agreement, unless reasonable cause is shown, to inspect and audit, at its sole expense and during normal business hours and in a manner that does not interfere unreasonably with operations, any areas in Takeda’s Manufacturing facility or any other facilities of Manufacturer or its Affiliates in which any portion of the Manufacturing, packaging or other activities with respect to any Drug Substance or Drug Product is performed. The information obtained during the course of such audit shall be considered Confidential Information and subject to Section 3.4 (Subcontractors) and the provisions of Article 12 (Confidentiality) of the License Agreement.
18.5 Relationship of the Parties. It is expressly agreed that Takeda, on the one hand, and Myovant, on the other hand, will be independent contractors and that the relationship between the two Parties will not constitute a partnership, joint venture or agency. Neither Takeda nor Myovant will have the authority to make any statements, representations or commitments of any kind, or to take any action which will be binding on the other, without the prior written consent of the other Party to do so. All persons employed by a Party will be employees of that Party and not of the other Party and all expenses and obligations incurred by reason of such employment will be for the account and expense of such Party.
18.6 Designation of Affiliates. Each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any rights hereunder through delegation of its obligations or rights to any of its Affiliates. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and will cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement will be a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate.
18.7 Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other except that: (a) each Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in whole or in part to one or more of its Affiliates without the consent of the other Party; and (b) each Party may assign this Agreement in connection with the sale or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the business to which this Agreement relates (whether such transaction occurs by way of a sale of assets, merger, consolidation or similar transaction), but, with respect to assignment by Myovant, only if such assignment is consistent with Sections 5.5 and 5.6 of the License Agreement. Any successor or assignee of rights or obligations permitted hereunder will, in writing to the other Party, expressly assume performance of such rights or obligations. Any permitted assignment will be binding on the successors of the assigning Party. Any assignment or attempted assignment by either Party in violation of the terms of this Section 18.7 will be null, void and of no legal effect.
18.8 Severability. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be or is taken, the provision will be considered severed from this Agreement and will not serve to invalidate any remaining provisions hereof. The Parties will make a good faith effort to replace any invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable one such that the objectives contemplated by the Parties when entering this Agreement may be realized.
18.9 Waiver and Non-Exclusion of Remedies. Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver will be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition. The waiver by either Party hereto of any right hereunder or of the failure to perform or of a breach by the other Party will not be deemed a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by such other Party whether of a similar nature or otherwise. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and do not exclude any other right or remedy provided by Applicable Law or otherwise available except as expressly set forth herein.

FIRST AMENDMENT
TO THE
AGREEMENT FOR THE MANUFACTURE & SUPPLY OF CLINICAL TRIAL MATERIAL
This First Amendment to the Agreement for the Manufacture and Supply of Clinical Trial Material (the “Amendment”) is entered into effective August 19, 2016 (the “Amendment Date”) by and between Myovant Sciences Ltd. (“Myovant”) and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (“Takeda”). Each of Myovant and Takeda may be referred to individually herein as a “Party” and jointly as the “Parties”.
WHEREAS, Myovant and Takeda are parties to that certain Agreement for the Manufacture and Supply of Clinical Trial Material dated June 7, 2016 (the “Supply Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, Myovant and Takeda wish to clarify certain matters relating to the Supply Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Myovant and Takeda, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. | Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed in the Supply Agreement. |
2. | Section 17.1 of the Supply Agreement is hereby superseded and replaced in its entirety to read as follows: |
17.1 Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until the termination of the License Agreement, unless terminated earlier in accordance with subsection (a) or (b) below (the “Term”).
(a) | Termination for Material Breach. |
(i)Either Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) may terminate this Agreement in its entirety in the event the other Party (the “Breaching Party”) has materially breached this Agreement and such material breach has not been cured (A) within [***] Business days of receiving notice thereof with respect to any breach of any undisputed payment obligation under this Agreement and (B) within [***] days of receiving notice thereof with respect to any other breach (as applicable, the “Cure Period”). The written notice describing the alleged material breach will provide sufficient detail to put the Breaching Party on notice of such material breach. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 17.1 will become effective at the end of the Cure Period, unless the Breaching Party has cured any such material breach prior to the expiration of such Cure Period.
(ii)If the Parties reasonably and in good faith disagree as to whether there has been a material breach, including whether such breach was material and whether such breach has been cured, the Party that disputes whether there has been a material breach may contest the allegation in accordance with Article 14 of the License Agreement. The Parties agree that the failure to deliver at least [***] of any Drug Substance or Drug Product ordered via a Purchase Order issued in accordance with Section 5.1.3 in any [***] month period shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement; provided that Myovant can establish that such delivery shortfall caused, or is reasonably likely to cause, a material delay in the timelines contemplated in the then-current Development Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 17.1, the Cure Period for any Dispute will run from the date that written notice was first provided to the Breaching Party by the Non-Breaching Party through the resolution of such Dispute pursuant to Article 14 of the License Agreement, and it is understood and acknowledged that, during the pendency of a Dispute pursuant this Section 17.1, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement will remain in effect, and the Parties will continue to perform all of their respective obligations under this Agreement.
(iii)If Myovant terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 17.1(a) for Takeda’s material breach, then Section 17.2.1 of this Agreement shall apply. If Takeda terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 17.1(a) for Myovant’s material breach, then Section 17.2.2 of this Agreement shall apply, except that Myovant shall not be permitted to cancel any pending Purchase Orders where Takeda either: (1) has Manufactured the Drug Product or Drug Substance to be delivered pursuant to the Purchase Order prior to the effective date of the termination, or (2) cannot, despite good faith efforts, re-allocate to a different program any Manufacturing slot that was scheduled to be used for a pending Purchase Order.
(b) | Termination for Convenience. Myovant may terminate this Agreement at will, in its sole discretion, on not less than [***] prior written notice to Takeda. If Myovant terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section |
1
17.1(b), then Section 17.2.2 of this Agreement shall apply; except that Myovant shall not be permitted to cancel any Purchase Orders where [***].
3. | Except as expressly set forth herein, all terms and conditions of the Supply Agreement remain in full force and effect. |
4. | This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Amendment may be executed by facsimile, .pdf or other electronically transmitted signatures and such signatures will be deemed to bind each Party hereto as if they were the original signatures. |
