16.2                           No Waiver.  The failure by either Party to take any action or assert any right hereunder shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such right, nor in any way be deemed to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof, or the right of a Party to thereafter enforce each and every provision of this Agreement.

16.3                           Drafting.  This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one Party than the other because it may have been drafted by one of the Parties or its counsel, each Party having contributed through its counsel substantially and materially to the negotiation and drafting thereof.

16.4                           Assignment.  This Agreement and the Parties’ rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable except with the prior written consent of the other Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) GMN may transfer to any Affiliate all or part of its obligations hereunder without the consent of PDL, and (b) PDL may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate or to a Third Party that acquires all or substantially all of the assets of PDL related to this Agreement or one or more Products, whether by sale, merger, consolidation, acquisition, transfer, operation of Law or otherwise, without the consent of GMN [****]*.

16.5                           Relationship of the Parties.  In making and performing this Agreement, the Parties are acting, and intend to be treated, as independent contractors and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed or implied to create an agency, partnership, joint venture, or employer and employee relationship between or among any of the Parties.  Except as otherwise provided herein, no Party may make any representation, warranty or commitment, whether express or implied, on behalf of or incur any charges or expenses for or in the name of any other Party.  No Party shall be liable for the act of any other Party unless such act is expressly authorized in writing by such Party.

16.6                           Notices.

16.7                           All notices and other communications given or made pursuant hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given:  (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) when sent by confirmed facsimile, (iii) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid or (iv) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt.  All communications shall be sent to the respective parties at the addresses set forth below (or at such other addresses as shall be specified by notice given in accordance with this Section), other than notices and communications related to technical and manufacturing matters, which shall be sent to the responsible persons identified in the Technical Agreement:

24

16.8                           Entire Agreement; Amendments.  This Agreement and its Annexes contain the entire understanding between the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior agreements, understandings and arrangements, whether written or oral, between the Parties relating to such subject matter and to the extent relating to Product.  No amendments, changes, modifications, waivers or alterations of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding upon either Party hereto unless in writing and signed by both Parties.

16.9                           Force Majeure.  If and to the extent that either Party is prevented or delayed by a Force Majeure Event which is not reasonably preventable by taking industry standard precautions (provided that such industry standard precautions shall not require GMN to have Product manufactured at other facilities or by a third party manufacturer) from performing any of its obligations under this Agreement and promptly so notifies the other Party, specifying the matters constituting a Force Majeure Event together with such evidence in verification thereof as it can reasonably give and specifying the period for which it is estimated that the prevention or delay will continue, then the Party so affected shall be relieved of liability to the other for failure to perform or for delay in performing such obligations (as the case may be), but shall nevertheless use its best endeavours to resume full performance thereof, provided that if the Force Majeure Event continues for a period of [****]* days or more following notification, the Party not affected by the Force Majeure Event may terminate this Agreement by giving not less than [****]* days prior notice to the other Party and the provisions of Section 13.4 shall then apply.

16.10                     Headings.  The captions to the Sections hereof are not a part of this Agreement, but are merely guides or labels to assist in locating and reading the several Sections hereof.

16.11                     Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed an original hereof.
