3.4
Forecast and ordering
 
 
(1)
Not less than 3 months prior to the Supply Start Date for a Product and on or before the 1st date of each calendar month thereafter, OcuSense must submit to MiniFAB a non-binding forecast of the quantity of each of the Products that OcuSense expects to purchase in each of the 3rd through the 6th month following the month for which the forecast is due (e.g., the forecast due on January 1, 2010 would contain a forecast for April through June of 2010).
 
 
(2)
OcuSense must order the Products 45 days prior to their requested deliverydates (as determined in accordance with clause 3.6) by sending binding written purchase orders to MiniFAB stating the Product, unit quantities and any other information reasonably required by MiniFAB from time to time (Purchase Orders). OcuSense may begin placing Purchase Orders for any particular Product commencing with the Supply Start Date for that Product. OcuSense shall use reasonable endeavours to ensure that the quantities of Products set forth in its Purchase Orders are consistent with the then-current forecast.
 
 
(3)
A Purchase Order constitutes an irrevocable offer made by OcuSense to MiniFAB for the supply of the Products specified in the Purchase Order on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Once received by MiniFAB, the Purchase Order is firm and may not be cancelled or modified without MiniFAB's prior written consent.
 
 
(4)
Subject to clauses 3.4(5) or 3.5, MiniFAB must accept a Purchase Order if the quantity of the Product the subject of the Purchase Order is between 80% and 150% of the most recent forecast. In addition, MiniFAB agrees to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to accept and satisfy Purchase Orders exceeding 150% of the most recent forecast. In the event that OcuSense places a Purchase Order that exceeds 150% of the most recent forecast, MiniFAB shall (i) accept the Purchase Order with respect to quantities at least equal to 150% of the most recent Purchase Order, and (ii) notify OcuSense in writing of those quantities (if any) exceeding 150% of the most recent forecast with respect to which MiniFAB is rejecting the Purchase Order.
 
 
(5)
If MiniFAB believes, on reasonable grounds, that a Purchaser Order is materially incorrect or, to the extent a Purchase Order exceeds 150% of forecast amounts, it is not capable of satisfying the Purchase Order with respect to excess amounts so ordered, then MiniFAB may reject the Purchase Order and must notify OcuSense as soon as possible. If MiniFAB does not reject to a Purchaser Order within 5 Business Days of receipt of the Purchase Order, then MiniFAB is deemed to have accepted the Purchaser Order. Any rejection by MiniFAB of a Purchase Order that is not provided for in this clause 3.4(5) or 3.5 is deemed to be a material breach of this Agreement for the purposes of clause 15.2(1).
 
3.5
Annual Production Capacity
 
(1)
Despite clause 3.4(4), MiniFAB may, in its absolute discretion, refuse to accept any Purchase Order for a particular Product if the Purchase Order would require MiniFAB to exceed the Annual Production Capacity of that Product during that year.

 
 

 
 
 
(2)
The parties may, from time to time, vary the Annual Production Capacity of a particular Product by agreement in writing. If OcuSense requests MiniFAB to increase the Annual Product Capacity, the parties shall promptly confer and discuss such matter in good faith, and MiniFAB shall endeavor to inform OcuSense within thirty (30) days whether MiniFAB will agree to the requested increase in the Annual Production Capacity.

In the even that any two or more consecutive shipments ordered by OcuSense in accordance with clause 3.4 are delivered more than five (5) business days after the delivery date indicated in the first sentence of this clause 3.6, then OcuSense shall be entitled to a thirty percent (30%) discount on the Price of the actual Products in such shipments which were not actually delivered by the required delivery date. The parties acknowledge and agree that such discount is independent of, and without prejudice to, other applicable remedies that may be available to OcuSense for failures of MiniFAB to supply Products in accordance with this Agreement.
 
3.7
Inspection and Nonconforming Goods
 
(1)
OcuSense must inspect the Products within 14 days after delivery (or such longer time as provided in the Technical Agreement) and must accept the Products if they meet the Specifications, the requirements of the Technical Agreement, and the Regulatory Requirements. If OcuSense fails to object in writing within the applicable period, then OcuSense must accept the delivered Products. OcuSense may reject the delivered Products only if the Products fail to meet the Specifications, the requirements of the Technical Agreement,and/or the Regulatory Requirements. If OcuSense rejects the delivered Products, OcuSense must provide MiniFAB in writing the reasons for the rejection and the reasonably available evidence to substantiate those reasons.
 
(2)
If OcuSense rejects the relevant Product, then MiniFAB shall promptly supply conforming replacement Products as soon as possible, whether or not MiniFAB agrees that OcuSense properly rejected such Products. MiniFAB agrees to notify OcuSense in writing if such replacement Products will not be shipped within five (5) business days.
 
(3)
If OcuSense properly rejected the original Products, then OcuSense's payment for the rejected Products shall be deemed payment for the replacement Products. If OcuSense was not entitled to reject the original Products, then OcuSense shall pay for both the rejected Products and the replacement Products.

14.3
Non exclusive arrangement
 
Nothing in clause 14.2 prevents either party from contracting with Sensortec independently for purposes unrelated to this Agreement.
 
14.4
Evaluation and licensing of other third party technology
 
If the parties agree or MiniFAB recommends (pursuant to the provision of R&D Services) that a particular technology is necessary to manufacture any New Product, then OcuSense will evaluate such recommendation, and if OcuSense determines in its sole discretion that licensing of such technology is desirable, OcuSense will be solely responsible for procuring (at its own cost and expenses) the requisite licences from the owner of that technology for the purposes of including the relevant technology in the New Product.
 
14.5
Technology Ownership and Licensing; Technology Transfer
 
(1)
OcuSense shall retain ownership of any pre-existing intellectual property rights in materials and information provided by OcuSense to MiniFAB for use by MiniFAB for the purposes of undertaking activities under this Agreement. MiniFAB shall retain ownership of any pre-existing intellectual property rights in materials, information, tools and methodologies provided by MiniFAB for the purposes of undertaking activities under this Agreement (and any improvements to them, except to the extent that those improvements comprise patented or unpatented intellectual property owned or controlled by OcuSense or that have application in the field of measuring osmolarity or osmolality of, or other characteristic of or any biomarker in, human tear fluid) (collectively, "MiniFAB Background IP") and MiniFAB hereby grants OcuSense a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license (with the right to grant and authorize sublicenses) to make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell and otherwise exploit MiniFAB Background IP as may be required to make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell and otherwise exploit Licensed Products or incorporated into processes or procedures for manufacturing or testing Licensed Products. As used herein, "Licensed Product" means any article, item, product, equipment, process, data, report or other deliverable designed or developed in whole or part for OcuSense by MiniFAB under the Development Agreement or this Agreement, whether or not such development or design is completed or successfully meets intended criteria, including without limitation the First Product, Second Product and any other New Products developed in whole or part under the Development Agreement or in R&D Services performed by MiniFAB under this Agreement.
 
 
 

 
 
(2)
Subject to clause 14.5(1) and the requirement for OcuSense to pay MiniFAB all outstanding fees and charges due to MiniFAB, MiniFAB agrees to assign and hereby assigns to OcuSense all right, title and interest in and to any trade dress, trademarks and design registrations or design patents, and any inventions, whether patentable or not, and any other discoveries, trade secrets or know-how which:
 
(a)
are embodied in a Licensed Product; and
 
(b)
were made, developed, conceived or first reduced to practice by or for MiniFAB as a direct result of MiniFAB undertaking activities under the Development Agreement or this Agreement
 
along with all patents, copyrights, and any other intellectual property rights therein, including the right to apply for and maintain the rights described in this clause 14.5(2) in all countries worldwide (such rights comprising the 'Project IP') and MiniFAB will (at the OcuSense's request and cost) do those things that may be reasonably necessary to effect the registration of such intellectual property. OcuSense must provide to MiniFAB full details (including copies of all relevant documentation) of any application for registration (whether as a registered patent, a registered design or otherwise) of the Project IP or any part of it.
 
(3)
At any time during the term of this Agreement, or in the event of any termination of this Agreement, OcuSense shall have the right to require MiniFAB:
 
  
(a)
to provide all reasonable assistance as requested by OcuSense, including without limitation transfer of technology, materials, information and documentation, to enable OcuSense to manufacture the Products internally or to secure the production and supply of the Products by a third party contractor (whether or not all or part of such technology, materials, information and documentation falls within the MiniFAB Background IP owned by MiniFAB); and
 
   
(b)
to provide OcuSense with the consultancy services of all key engineering personnel of MiniFAB to effect or support such transfer of technology and/or the license to MiniFAB Background IP.
 
OcuSense shall pay MiniFAB for the time spent by MiniFAB's key personnel in conducting such technology transfer activities as may be requested by OcuSense, at MiniFAB's reasonable and customary rates for similar consultancy, and shall reimburse MiniFAB's out-of-pocket expenses incurred in conducting such technology transfer.
 
(4)
All MiniFAB Background IP shall be treated by OcuSense and its sublicensees  and their third party manufacturers as Confidential Information of MiniFAB;  provided, however, that (i) OcuSense may disclose the MiniFAB Background  IP to actual and potential investors, sublicensees, advisors and/or contract  manufacturers of Licensed Products, in each case under reasonable and  customary terms of confidentiality; and (ii) OcuSense and its sublicensees and  contract manufacturers may disclose such information as is reasonably  necessary in seeking regulatory approvals in connection with the manufacture,  clinical development, use or commercialization of Licensed Products. For clarity, this clause 14.5(4) shall not be construed to prevent the use of MiniFAB Background IP in under authority of the license set forth in clause 14.5(1) above.

 
 

 
 
(5)
This clause 14.5 will survive termination of this Agreement.
 
15.

(1)
This Agreement commences on the Commencement Date and continues for an initial period of ten (10) years after the Commencement Date.
 
(2)

Notwithstanding clause 15.1, either party may terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon the giving of written notice to the other party (Defaulting Party) if:
 
(1)
the Defaulting Party commits a material breach of this Agreement and fails to correct the breach within 30 days after written notice to do so;
 
(2)
the Defaulting Party fails to carry out any material provision of this Agreement and the failure is not capable of remedy; and/or
 
(3) 
an Insolvency Event occurs in relation to the Defaulting Party.

15.3
Effect of termination
 
(1)
Upon termination or expiry of this Agreement for any reason other than for material breach by MiniFAB or due to an Insolvency Event in relation to OcuSense, MiniFAB will complete the delivery of all outstanding Purchase Orders.
 
(2)
Upon termination of this Agreement for material breach by MiniFAB, OcuSense may elect to cause MiniFAB to complete the delivery of all outstanding Purchase Orders or to cancel any or all outstanding Purchase Orders (in whole or in part).
 
(3)
Upon termination or expiry of this Agreement for any reason
 
(a) 
OcuSense must pay all outstanding undisputed invoices for allcompleted Purchase Orders;
 
(b)
all Development Orders are deemed to be discontinued and:
 
(i)
if this Agreement is terminated under clause 15.2 and MiniFAB is the Defaulting Party, then MiniFAB will be responsible for all Development Expenses incurred; and
 
(ii)
if this Agreement is terminated for any other reason, then OcuSense must pay MiniFAB all Development Expenses incurred and any other unavoidable costs incurred by MiniFAB in connection with the termination, as set forth in clause 5.12; and

 
 

 
 
(c)
each party must immediately return the Confidential Information of the other party to the other party.
 
(4)
Except as provided in clause 15.4, termination is without prejudice to the rights of either party for any prior breach.
 
15.4
Termination Fee
 
(1)
If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, other than where MiniFAB is the Defaulting Party, and the Minimum Orders requirements set forth in clause 3.3(7) have not been satisfied on or before the effective date of termination (other than as a result of the inability or failure of MiniFAB to timely supply conforming Products in quantities ordered by OcuSense), then OcuSense shall be deemed to have failed to meet the Minimum Orders requirement, and shall pay MiniFAB the amounts specified in clause 3.3(8) (Termination Fee); provided, however, the Termination Fee shall not include any amounts with respect to Minimum Orders requirements for Second Products as set forth in clause 3.3(7)(c) and 3.3(8)(c) unless such termination is effective after the date MiniFAB notifies OcuSense pursuant to clause 3.2(2) that MiniFAB has put in place the necessary plant and equipment to manufacture the Second Product to meet the Minimum Orders of that Product.
 
(2)
The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Termination Fee is a genuine pre-estimate of the anticipated loss or damage which would be suffered by MiniFAB as a result of the early termination of this Agreement, (ii) the agreed upon Termination Fee shall be in lieu of any actual or alleged damages, losses or harm to MiniFAB resulting from such Termination and/or from any failure of OcuSense to order or purchase Products from MiniFAB under this Agreement (Termination Losses), and (iii) MiniFAB waives its right to seek recovery or reimbursement of all Termination Losses other than the Termination Fee.
 
15.5

All clauses that by their nature survive expiration or termination of this Agreement will remain in force. For the avoidance of doubt, clauses 1, 5.6, 6.3, 6.4(2), 11.1, 11.4, 13, 14.5, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21 and 22 survive termination.
 
16. 
Liability and indemnity
 
16.1 
Indemnity by OcuSense
 
OcuSense shall indemnify MiniFAB and its Representatives against all Lossesincurred by them as result of claims by third persons against MiniFAB arising directly or indirectly as a result of:
 
(1) 
any grossly negligent, unlawful, fraudulent or wilful misconduct committed byOcuSense or its Representatives in the performance of this Agreement;
 
(2) 
the marketing, promotion, sale or supply of the Product by OcuSense; or
 
(3)
OcuSense's failure to obtain, maintain or comply in any respect with any Registrations,
 
except, in each case, to the extent Losses result from any event described in clause 16.2.
 
 
 

 
 
16.2
Indemnity by MiniFAB
 
MiniFAB shall indemnify OcuSense and its Representatives against all Losses incurred by them as a result of claims by third persons against OcuSense arising directly or indirectly, to the extent resulting from:
 
(1)
any grossly negligent, unlawful, fraudulent or wilful misconduct committed by MiniFAB or its Representatives in the performance of this Agreement;
 
(2)
any manufacturing defect in any Product supplied by MiniFAB to OcuSense, or any failure of any such Product to conform to the Specifications or the Regulatory Requirements therefor; or
 
(3)
MiniFAB's failure to obtain and maintain all necessary governmental permits for the development and manufacture of Products hereunder.
 
16.3
General provisions applicable to indemnities
 
A party (the "Indemnitee") that intends to claim indemnification under this clause 16 shall promptly notify the other party (the "Indemnitor") of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding for which the Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification. The Indemnitor shall have the right to assume and control the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnitor; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel to participate in the defense, subject to Indemnitor's right to control the defense. The indemnity obligations under this clause 16 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Loss if such settlement is effected without the prior express written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The failure to deliver notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time after notice of any relevant claim, or the commencement of any such action or other proceeding shall not relieve such Indemnitor of all liability to the Indemnitee under this clause 16 with respect thereto, but if such failure is prejudicial to the Indemnitor's ability to defend such claim, and if such prejudice results in Losses that otherwise would likely have been avoided or reduced if timely notice had been given, then the Indemnitor shall be relieved of said part of the Losses. The Indemnitor may not settle or otherwise consent to an adverse judgment in any such claim, that diminishes the rights or interests of the Indemnitee without the prior express written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (it being understood that no consent by the Indemnitee is required for the Indemnitor to obtain a full release of all claims by a third person against an Indemnitee in exchange solely for the payment of a settlement amount by Indemnitor). The Indemnitee, its employees and agents, shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the investigation of any claim covered by this clause 16. The indemnities contained in this clause 16 do not negate the obligation of the party having the benefit of such indemnity to mitigate its losses; and are continuing obligations on each party, separate and independent of any other obligation.
 
16.4
No consequential damages
 
Except for any liability under clause 18 or the indemnity provided under clauses 16.1 or 16.2, to the extent permitted by law, neither party will be liable to the other party in any circumstances for any special, incidental, punitive, exemplary, consequential or any other indirect loss or damage, or in any event for any loss of revenue, loss of production, loss of profit or loss of data.

 
 

 
 
17.
Goods and services tax
 
17.1
In this clause 17:
 
(1)
GST means GST as defined in A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 as amended (GST Act) or any replacement or other relevant legislation and regulations;
 
(2)
words or expressions used in this clause which have a particular meaning in the GST law (as defined in the GST Act, and also including any applicable legislative determinations and Australian Taxation Office public rulings) have the same meaning, unless the context otherwise requires;
 
(3)
any reference to GST payable by a party includes any corresponding GST payable by the representative member of any GST group of which that party is a member;
 
(4)
any reference to an input tax credit entitlement by a party includes any corresponding input tax credit entitlement by the representative member of any GST group of which that party is a member; and
 
(5)
if the GST law treats part of a supply as a separate supply for the purpose of determining whether GST is payable on that part of the supply or for the purpose of determining the tax period to which that part of the supply is attributable, such part of the supply is to be treated as a separate supply.
 
17.2
Unless GST is expressly included, the consideration to be paid or provided under any other clause of this Agreement for any supply made under or in connection with this Agreement does not include GST.
 
17.3
To the extent that any supply made under or in connection with this Agreement is a taxable supply, the GST exclusive consideration otherwise to be paid or provided for that taxable supply is increased by the amount of any GST payable in respect of that taxable supply and that amount must be paid at the same time and in the same manner as the GST exclusive consideration is otherwise to be paid or provided. A party's right to payment under this clause is subject to a valid tax invoice being delivered to the recipient of the taxable supply.
 
17.4
To the extent that one party is required to reimburse or indemnify another party for aloss, cost or expense incurred by that other party, that loss, cost or expense does notinclude any amount in respect of GST for which that other party is entitled to claim aninput tax credit.
 
18.
Confidentiality
 
18.1
Prohibited acts
 
Neither party may, without the other party's prior written consent, copy or disclose or cause to be copied or disclosed any Confidential Information of the other party other than to the extent that such Confidential Information must be disclosed:
 
(1)
to the party's sub-contractors, employees, legal advisers, auditors, investors or other consultants in order for this Agreement to be performed, provided that the recipients of the information undertake in writing to the party to keep that information strictly confidential; or
 
(2)
to Regulatory Authorities as required to obtain or maintain any regulatory approvals.

 
 

 
 
18.2
Permitted uses

(1)
was in the public domain when it was disclosed to the receiving party;
 
(2)
becomes, after being disclosed to the receiving party, part of the public domain, except through disclosure contrary to this Agreement;
 
(3)
was already in the receiving party's possession when it was disclosed to the receiving party and was not otherwise acquired from the other party directly or indirectly; or
 
(4)
was lawfully disclosed to the receiving party by a third party having the unrestricted legal right to disclose that information without requiring the maintenance of confidentiality.
 
Prior to making a disclosure of information which the receiving party alleges is no longer or never was Confidential Information by virtue of falling within one of the above exceptions, the receiving party must give to the other party 10 Business Days notice of the proposed disclosure and the reasons for the exception applying.
 
18.4
Compulsory disclosures
 
The obligations of confidentiality in this clause do not apply to a receiving party where the receiving party is required under the lawful compulsion of any court, tribunal, authority or regulatory body to disclose any Confidential Information of the other party. Provided that before a party discloses any Confidential Information pursuant to the foregoing it must provide the other party with reasonable notice to enable it to seek a protective court order or other remedy in respect of the Confidential Information, and it must provide the other party with all assistance and co operation which the other party considers necessary to obtain such protective court order or other remedy.
 
 
18.5
Protection of information
 
Each party must notify the other party in writing immediately upon the discovery of any apparent unauthorised use or disclosure of any Confidential Information and take all reasonable steps to enforce the confidentiality obligations imposed or required to be imposed by this clause 18 including diligently prosecuting at its cost any breach or threatened breach of any such confidentiality obligations by any person to whom it has disclosed or allowed access to the Confidential Information or at the other party's option making all reasonable efforts to assist the other party to help regain possession of the Confidential Information and prevent any further unauthorised disclosure or use.
 
 
18.6
Confidentiality of agreement
 
The parties must maintain absolute confidentiality concerning the existence and subject matter of this Agreement and no public announcement or communication relating to the negotiations of the parties or the existence, subject matter or terms of this Agreement may be made or authorised by a party without the prior written approval of the other party except that the following disclosures may be made in relation to this Agreement:

 
 

 
 
(1)
by either party to its sub-contractors, employees, auditors, consultants, professional advisers, bankers, financial advisers, financiers, investors and potential investors upon those persons undertaking to keep confidential any information so disclosed; or
 
(2)
to comply with any applicable law or requirement of any Governmental Agency or of any public stock exchange on which shares of the disclosing party are listed.
 
18.7
Return of Confidential Information
 
Each party agrees that on termination or expiration of this Agreement it will deliver to that other party any and all materials containing or embodying that other party's Confidential Information and any copies thereof; provided that each party shall be entitled to retain one (1) copy of the other party's Confidential Information, to be kept at such party's legal files for use solely for the purpose of ensuring continued compliance with the terms of this Agreement.
 
19.
Disputes
 
19.1
Attempt to Settle
 
If a dispute arises between the parties in connection with this Agreement then the parties must use all reasonable endeavours acting in good faith to settle the dispute as soon as practicable.
 
19.2
Limitations on Court Proceedings
 
A party must not commence court proceedings in relation to a dispute arising in connection with this Agreement until it has exhausted the procedures in this clause 19, unless the party seeks urgent interlocutory relief.
 
19.3
Disputes relating to Product
 
If the dispute relates to whether or not a particular Product meets the Specifications and the Regulatory Requirements, then the parties must submit the dispute to an independent laboratory, which will act as an expert in determining whether or not the Product meets the Specifications and the Regulatory Requirements; provided, however, that if it is not technically feasible to make such independent laboratory determination in connection with a particular dispute (e.g., if insufficient number of samples of a relevant batch of Products is available), then such dispute shall be determined by arbitration under clause 19.5
 
19.4
Other disputes
 
If a dispute does not relate to whether or not a particular Product meets the Specifications and the Regulatory Requirements and the parties are unable in good faith to settle the dispute within 20 Business Days after the dispute arose, then either party may submit the matter to arbitration under clause 19.5.
 
19.5 
Arbitration
 
(1)
If any dispute arises under, or in connection with, this Agreement and/or any Development Order, or in connection with any breach or alleged breach of this Agreement or any Development Order, and such matter is not resolved pursuant to clause 19.1 or 19.3 or by other agreement of the parties, such matter shall be finally resolved through binding arbitration as set forth in this clause 19.5. Either party may initiate arbitration of such a matter, and the party initiating arbitration of such dispute must give to the other party or parties to the dispute notice specifying the dispute and requiring its resolution under this clause 19.5 (Notice of Dispute). Such Notice of Dispute shall be given in accordance with the arbitration rules specified under this clause 19.5.

 
 

 
 
(2)
Each such dispute is by this clause 19.5 referred to binding arbitration for final resolution. The arbitration must be conducted in:
 
(a)
Melbourne, Australia if the Notice of Dispute is given by OcuSense; and
 
(b)
San Diego California, USA, if the Notice of Dispute is given by MiniFAB.
 
(3)
If the parties have not agreed upon the arbitrator within 7 days after the Notice of Dispute is given, the arbitrator is the person appointed by the Chair of the Victorian Chapter of the Institute of Arbitrators and Mediators Australia (Principal Appointor) or the Principal Appointor's nominee, acting on the request of any party to the dispute.
 
(4)
The arbitrator must not be a present or former member, officer, employee or agent of a party to the dispute or a person who has acted as a mediator or advised any party in connection with the dispute.
 
(5)
The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the then-current rules of the International Centre for Dispute Resolution by one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with such rules. The arbitrator shall determine what discovery will be permitted, consistent with the goal of limiting the cost and time which the parties must expend for discovery; provided the arbitrator shall permit such discovery as the arbitrator deems necessary to permit an equitable resolution of the dispute. The arbitrator shall not order or require discovery against either party of a type or scope that is not permitted against the other party. The costs of the arbitration, including administrative and arbitrators' fees, shall be shared equally by the parties, and each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys' and witness' fees incurred in connection with the arbitration. Any arbitration subject to this Article shall be completed within one (1) year from the filing of notice of a request for such arbitration. No punitive damages may be granted by the arbitrator. The arbitration proceedings and the decision shall not be made public without the joint consent of the parties, and each party shall maintain the confidentiality of such proceedings and decision unless otherwise permitted by the other party, except to the extent (and solely to the extent) either party is required to disclose such information by applicable securities or other laws. The parties agree that the decision shall be the sole, exclusive and binding remedy between them regarding any and all disputes, controversies, claims and counterclaims presented to the arbitrator. Any award may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction for a judicial recognition of the decision and applicable orders of enforcement, and either party may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for appropriate temporary injunctive relief pending resolution of any arbitration proceeding. The arbitrator shall provide a written arbitration award setting forth the arbitrator's findings on material questions of law and of fact, including references to the evidence on which the findings of fact were based. Each party may be represented by a qualified legal practitioner or other representative.
 
(6)
This clause 19.5 applies even where the Agreement is otherwise void or voidable.

 
 

 
 
19.6
Continuing Obligations
 
19.7
Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the parties must continue to perform their obligations under this Agreement despite the existence of a dispute or any steps being taken under this clause 19.
 
20.
Force Majeure
 
20.1
Party not liable
 
Where a party is required under this Agreement to perform an obligation or do any act or thing by a designated time or date (Obligation), the party is not liable for any delay in performing or for failure to perform an Obligation where the delay or failure arises from Force Majeure and that party has complied with this clause.
 
20.2
Notice of Force Majeure
 
A party who claims Force Majeure must:
 
(1)
give the other party prompt notice of the Force Majeure with reasonably full particulars and an estimate of the extent and duration of its delay in performance, or inability to perform; and
 
(2)
use all possible diligence to resume normal performance of the delayed obligations as quickly as possible.
 
20.3
Termination in case of Force Majeure
 
If the delay continues beyond 30 days after the notice given under clause 20.2, the parties must meet to discuss in good faith a mutually satisfactory resolution of the problem and, if unable to achieve such a resolution within a further 60 days, either party may elect to terminate this Agreement by 30 days prior written notice to the other.

General
 
22.1
Further assurance

22.2
Entire understanding
 
This Agreement is the entire agreement and understanding between the parties on everything connected with the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes any prior agreement or understanding on anything connected with that subject matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Development Agreement continues to govern the development of the First Product; provided, however, that in the event of a conflict between any provision of the Development Agreement and any provision of this Agreement, the relevant provision of this Agreement shall govern.
 
22.3
Variation
 
An amendment or variation to this Agreement is not effective unless it is in writing and signed by the parties.
 
22.4
Waiver
 
A party's failure or delay to exercise a power or right does not operate as a waiver of that power or right. The exercise of a power or right does not preclude either its exercise in the future or the exercise of any other power or right. A waiver is not effective unless it is in writing. Waiver of a power or right is effective only in respect of the specific instance to which it relates and for the specific purpose for which it is given.
 
22.5
Costs and outlays
 
Each party must pay its own costs and outlays connected with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement.
