(b) Paste Supply Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Kamada’s obligation to supply Product to Baxter under this Agreement shall be subject to Baxter supplying sufficient quantities of Paste meeting the Paste Specifications in a timely fashion. Consequently, Kamada shall not be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement to the extent that Kamada’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement directly results from: (A) Baxter’s failure to supply sufficient quantities of Paste meeting the Paste Specifications in a timely fashion (unless Baxter has withheld delivery of Paste as a result of a material breach, by Kamada, of the terms of the Paste Supply Agreement including, without limitation, payment of any amounts due thereunder) or (B) any material delay in the fulfillment of Baxter’s obligations under the Paste Supply Agreement, including, but not limited to, as a result of Kamada’s agreement to grant any extension or waiver of the terms of the Paste Supply Agreement in Baxter’s favor. Further, all representations, warranties and covenants made by Kamada hereunder, the accuracy or fulfillment of which depends on Baxter’s supply of sufficient quantities of Paste meeting the Paste Specifications, shall be deemed qualified such that if sufficient quantities of Paste meeting the Paste Specifications are not supplied by Baxter in a timely fashion (subject again to Baxter’s ability to withhold shipment of Paste as a result of Kamada’s material breach of the terms of the Paste Supply Agreement) Kamada shall not be in breach of such representation or warranty or covenant and shall be granted an extension in fulfilling such covenant for a period equal length to the delay caused by Baxter’s failure to deliver the corresponding Paste. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Kamada shall be obligated to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain an alternative supply of paste for the production of Product.

At the beginning of each calendar month during the Term, Baxter shall provide Kamada in writing a good faith monthly forecast of Baxter’s expected requirements for delivery of Product (consistent with the Specifications (including then current packaging requirements)), for each month in the following [*****] period (each, a Forecast). Until [*****], the first [*****] included in each such Forecast shall constitute a binding commitment on Baxter’s behalf to purchase the quantities of Product set forth in such Forecast. Thereafter, the first [*****] included in each such Forecast shall constitute a binding commitment on Baxter’s behalf to purchase the quantities of Product set forth in such Forecast. Except as provided in Section 6.4, Baxter shall not be obligated to purchase nor shall it have any liability in respect of the remaining [*****] of any Forecast. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Baxter’s ability to modify the quantities set forth in the Forecast shall be limited by the following:

(b) Pharmacovigilance Agreement. The Parties shall enter into a separate pharmacovigilance agreement. Such pharmacovigilance agreement should be executed no later than ninety (90) days from the Effective Date and shall thereafter be attached to this Agreement as Exhibit 11.4(b) and shall then be considered as incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

Further, the Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to, within ninety (90) days following the Effective Date but in any event prior to the First Commercial Sale, enter into a written agreement regarding adverse event reporting system and procedures acceptable to the Parties. The system shall be operational no later than the first sale of an A1PI IV Product in the Baxter Territory by Baxter or its sub-distributors and Affiliates (as applicable).

 

(d) Notification of Complaints. Upon any Party receiving or becoming aware of any complaint involving the possible failure of the A1PI IV Product, in any location in the world, to meet any requirement of applicable law or regulation, and any serious or unexpected side effect, injury, toxicity or sensitivity reaction or any unexpected incidents associated with the distribution of the A1PI IV Product, whether or not determined to be attributable to the A1PI IV Product (i) such Party shall notify the other Party about such complaint and provide initial information about such complaint to the other Party within [*****] and shall provide all information about such complaint within [*****], (ii) promptly provide to the other Party copies of any complaints, and provide at the time of submission copies of any submissions to any Regulatory Authority regarding such complaints and (iii) with respect to adverse events, comply with the provisions of Section ‎11.4(c) above.

(e) Notification of Threatened Action. Each Party shall immediately notify the other Party of any information it receives regarding any threatened or pending action, inspection or communication by or from any party, including, without limitation, a Regulatory Authority which may affect the safety or efficacy claims of the A1PI IV Product or the continued marketing of the A1PI IV Product.

11.5 Audits.

 

(a) Baxter Access. Kamada will give Baxter reasonable access to its records and manufacturing facilities to allow Baxter to conduct full compliance audits relating to Kamada’s role and obligations as the U.S. BLA holder for the A1PI IV Product, at Baxter’s expense, as reasonably deemed necessary by Baxter, but no more frequently than once in any [*****] period unless any such audits reveal a material failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or failure to comply with any law, rule or regulation related to the manufacturing, handling, storage or transport of the A1PI IV Product in which case there shall be no limitation of the frequency of such compliance audits until such material compliance problems have been corrected at which time the frequency shall be restored to once in any [*****] period. The audit shall be conducted by Baxter personnel and any of its designated third party Representatives each of whom shall, in connection with their participation in such audit, agree to execute a confidentiality agreement in favor of Kamada. The audit may include, without limitation, records relating to manufacturing compliance with the specifications, compliance with quality control and inspection reports procedures, compliance with cGMP, Title 21 Parts 210 and 211 or other applicable regulations. Such audits will be conducted during Kamada’s normal business hours, after [*****] written notice to Kamada by Baxter, and at times mutually agreeable to the Parties. Kamada will make its regulatory compliance and quality assurance personnel (and such personnel of any sub-contractors, if applicable) reasonably available to Baxter in connection with such audits. If Baxter recommends any corrective actions to Kamada in connection with such audits, Kamada shall take any corrective action reasonably recommended by Baxter within [*****] of receipt of any corrective action recommendations, if possible, or will inform Baxter in writing of the reasons why Kamada believes such corrective action is not required or necessary, or cannot be completed within such [*****] period and if such reasons are not accepted by Baxter, such dispute shall be resolved through the dispute resolution process in this Agreement. Baxter shall be given access to audit any corrective action.

(b) Kamada Access. Baxter will give Kamada reasonable access to its records and facilities (and will obtain sufficient rights to give Kamada reasonable access to the records and facilities of its Permitted Sublicensees and Affiliates), to allow Kamada to conduct full compliance audits relating to the A1PI IV Product (including with respect to its manufacture, quality systems, complaint handling, maintenance of adequate documentation, etc.), at Kamada’s expense, as reasonably deemed necessary by Kamada, but no more frequently than once in any [*****] period unless any such audits reveals a material failure to comply with this Agreement or failure by Baxter (or its sub-distributors and Affiliates, if applicable) to comply with any applicable law relating to its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the A1PI IV Product in which case there shall be no limitation of the frequency of such compliance audits with respect to the entity for which the material failure was identified, until such material failures have been corrected at which time the frequency shall be restored to once in any [*****] period. The audit shall be conducted by Kamada personnel and any of its designated third party Representatives each of whom shall, in connection with their participation in such audit, agree to execute a confidentiality agreement in favor of Baxter. In furtherance of this right, Baxter agrees that it shall specifically obtain from any and all third-party or Affiliate distributors of the A1PI IV Product a right of Kamada to conduct audits of such party’s records and facilities as set forth herein.

Baxter will make its regulatory compliance and quality assurance personnel (and such personnel of any sub-distributors, if applicable) reasonably available to Kamada in connection with such audits. If Kamada recommends any corrective actions to Baxter in connection with such audits, Baxter shall take any corrective action reasonably recommended by Kamada within [*****] of receipt of any corrective action recommendations, if related to the BLA or BLA Supplement, or, if such corrective action is not related to the BLA or BLA Supplement (i) will take such corrective action within [*****] of receipt of any corrective action recommendations, if possible, or (ii) will inform Kamada in writing of the reasons why Baxter believes such corrective action is not required or necessary, or cannot be completed within such [*****] period and if such reasons are not accepted by Kamada, such dispute shall be resolved through the dispute resolution process in this Agreement. Kamada shall be given access to audit any corrective action. In the event that Baxter is not manufacturing or distributing the A1PI IV Product and is using third parties to manufacture or distribute the A1PI IV Product, Baxter shall obtain all rights necessary from such third parties to enable Kamada to exercise all of its rights under this Agreement at such third party manufactures’ facilities.

 

11.6 Regulatory Inspections.

14.7 Third-Party Infringement; Failure of Kamada to Enforce Patents.

 

(a) Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any infringement or violation by any third party of any Kamada Intellectual Property rights related to the Product of which it becomes aware. In the case of any infringement or violation by any third party in the Baxter Territory of any Kamada Intellectual Property rights related to the Product, Kamada shall have the right but not the obligation, at its sole expense, to exercise its rights (including, without limitation, common law and statutory rights) to cause such third party to cease such infringement and to otherwise enforce such rights. If Kamada determines that Baxter is an indispensable party to the action, Kamada shall provide written notice to Baxter and Baxter hereby consents to participate in such action. In such event, Baxter shall have the right to be represented in such action using counsel of its own choice, at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Kamada agrees that it shall not enter into any settlement, consent, order, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any action it brings under this Section 14.7 relating to the Field and the Baxter Territory without the prior written consent of Baxter (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

 

(b) If Kamada (i) fails to bring an action for infringement within the Field and within the Baxter Territory by a Third Party of a Patent within the scope of the Kamada Intellectual Property Rights within a period of [*****] after providing written notice to or receiving written notice from Baxter of the possibility of pursuing such an action, including the evidence supporting such possible action; (ii) notifies Baxter in writing prior to the expiration of such [*****] period that Kamada declines to bring an action for infringement within the Field; or, (iii) notifies Baxter in writing that it will not defend a declaratory judgment action brought by a Third Party alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any Kamada patent(s) within the Field and the Baxter Territory; then, Baxter shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any such action using counsel of its own choice, at its own expense on no less than [*****] prior written notice (the “Enforcement Notice”) to Kamada (the “Enforcement Notice Period”).

 

(c) If Baxter determines that Kamada is an indispensable party to the action, Baxter shall provide written notice to Kamada and Kamada shall consent to participate in such action. To the extent that Kamada participates in such action and Kamada consents to be represented by counsel of Baxter’s choosing, Baxter shall pay Kamada’s reasonable expenses resulting from such action. In the event that Kamada participates in such an action, but does not consent to representation by counsel selected by Baxter, Kamada shall have the right to be represented in such action using counsel of its own choice at its own expense. Baxter shall have no right to bring an action for infringement by a Third Party outside the Field or outside the Baxter Territory of any patent within the scope of the Kamada Intellectual Property rights.

 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Baxter agrees that it shall not enter into any settlement, consent, order, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any action it brings under this Section 14.7(d) without the prior written consent of Kamada (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

14.8 Infringement Defense. In the event either Party receives notice of any claim that the manufacture, use or sale of the Product infringes the rights of a third party, it shall give prompt notice to the other Party and shall discuss in good faith alternative strategies for addressing the matter and cooperate with each other to terminate such infringement without litigation. After such discussion, Kamada shall have the right and obligation, at its sole cost and expense, to defend against such claim. Baxter shall provide, at Kamada’s sole expense, such assistance and cooperation to Kamada as may be reasonably necessary to defend any such action, and Kamada shall have the right to settle such action for monetary damages, provided such settlement includes a complete and absolute release of Baxter. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Kamada may not settle any claims for fines, penalties or the like or in any way adverse to Baxter without the prior written consent of Baxter, which shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed.

 

14.9 Cooperation as to Indemnified Liability. Each Party hereto shall reasonably cooperate with other Party with respect to access to witnesses, books, records, or other documentation within such Party’s control, if deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by any Party in the defense of any claim, which may give rise to indemnification hereunder.

(b) Either Party may terminate this Agreement, in whole or solely with respect to one or more countries in the Baxter Territory, by giving notice in writing to the other Party in the event of the granting of a winding-up order in respect of the other Party, or upon an order being granted against the other Party for the appointment of a receiver over all or substantially all of such other Party’s assets, or if such other Party passes a resolution for its voluntary winding-up, or if a temporary or permanent liquidator or receiver over all or substantially all of such other Party’s assets is appointed in respect of such other Party, or if a temporary or permanent attachment order is granted on all of such other Party’s assets, or a substantial portion thereof and is not cancelled within [*****], or if such other Party shall seek protection under any laws or regulations, the effect of which is to suspend or impair the rights of any or all of its creditors, or to impose a moratorium on such creditors, or if anything analogous to any of the foregoing in this Section 15.2(b) under the laws of any jurisdiction occurs in respect of such other Party; provided that in the case that any such order or act is initiated by any Third Party, the right of termination shall apply only if such order or act as aforesaid is not cancelled within [*****] of the grant of such order or the performance of such act.

Either Party may initiate arbitration with respect to the matters submitted to negotiation by filing a written demand for arbitration at any time following the initial negotiation session.

 

(b)To the extent not resolved by mediation, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration conducted in the English language. The arbitration shall take place in New York, New York. The arbitration shall be administered by CPR pursuant to its Arbitration Rules and Procedures.

The two Party-appointed arbitrators will select the third, who will serve as the panel’s chair or president. All three (3) arbitrators shall have experience in the area under dispute. This arbitration provision, and the arbitration itself, shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, and the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16.

 

(c)Consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration, each Party will, upon the written request of the other Party, promptly provide the other with copies of documents on which the producing Party may rely in support of or in opposition to any claim or defense. At the request of a Party, the arbitrators shall have the discretion to order examination by deposition of witnesses to the extent the arbitrator deems such additional discovery relevant and appropriate. Depositions shall be limited to a maximum of five per Party and shall be held within 45 days of the grant of a request. Additional depositions may be scheduled only with the permission of the arbitrators, and for good cause shown. Each deposition shall be limited to a maximum of one day’s duration. All objections are reserved for the arbitration hearing except for objections based on privilege and proprietary or confidential information. The Parties shall not utilize any other discovery mechanisms, including international processes and U.S. federal statutes, to obtain additional evidence for use in the arbitration. Any dispute regarding discovery, or the relevance or scope thereof, shall be determined by the arbitrators, which determination shall be conclusive. All discovery shall be completed within 60 days following the appointment of the arbitrators. All costs and/or fees relating to the retrieval, review and production of electronic discovery shall be paid by the Party requesting such discovery.

 

 
 

 

(d)The panel of arbitrators shall have no power to award non-monetary or equitable relief of any sort. The arbitrators will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing Party’s actual damages, except as may be required by statute. Each Party expressly waives and foregoes any right to consequential, punitive, special, exemplary or similar damages or lost profits. The arbitrators shall have no power or authority, under the CPR Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration or otherwise, to relieve the Parties from their agreement hereunder to arbitrate or otherwise to amend or disregard any provision of this Agreement. Subject to the provisions set forth in subsection (e) below, the award of the arbitrators shall be final, binding and the sole and exclusive remedy to the Parties. Either Party may seek to confirm and enforce any final award entered in arbitration, in any court of competent jurisdiction. The cost of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrators, shall be borne by the Party the arbitrator determines has not prevailed in the arbitration.

 

(e)If an arbitral award does not contain an award of money damages in excess of [*****], then the arbitral award shall not be appealable and shall only be subject to such challenges as would otherwise be permissible under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. In the event that the arbitration results in an arbitral award, which imposes a monetary award in excess of [*****], such award may be appealed to a tribunal of appellate arbitrators via the CPR Arbitration Appeal Procedure, whose determination shall be final.

 

(f)Except as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties.

(b)Baxter’s Rights upon Cessation of Prosecution/Maintenance. In the event that Kamada reasonably decides that it will not continue to prosecute a Patent Application and/or maintain a Patent within the scope of the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights in a jurisdiction, then Kamada shall provide written notice to Baxter. If requested by Baxter, the Parties will meet to discuss the Kamada position, which discussions will include outside patent counsel for either or both Parties at the request of either Party. Kamada agrees to reasonably consider the position of Baxter with respect to Kamada’s decision not to continue prosecution/maintenance. If, following such discussions, Kamada declines to change its position with respect to prosecution/maintenance, then Baxter, in its discretion, may elect to continue to prosecute such Patent Application and/or maintain such Patent in such jurisdiction at its own cost and expense. Baxter shall notify Kamada in writing of Baxter’s election to file and/or continue to prosecute such Patent Application and/or maintain such Patent in any such jurisdiction, at Baxter’s expense. In the event of a Baxter election pursuant to this Section 3.1 to prosecute/maintain any Patent Application and any Patents resulting therefrom, then such Patent Application and any Patents resulting therefrom shall be included within the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights for all purposes of this Agreement and such Patent Application and any Patents resulting there from shall be owned by Kamada and added to Exhibit 1.39. Nothing in this Section 3.1(b) shall relieve Kamada of its obligation to maintain the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights once granted, nor allow Kamada to discontinue prosecution of Kamada Licensed Patent Rights for the sole reason of the cost of prosecution.

 

(c)Assistance; Baxter Right to Comment.

 

(i)          Kamada shall provide to Baxter a copy of any Patent Application that is within the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights that is being prepared for filing with any patent office in the Baxter Territory no later than [*****] prior to filing of said Patent Application. Baxter shall have the right to comment on any Patent Application received from Kamada. Baxter shall provide any such comments reasonably in advance of the filing date to permit Kamada to consider such comments and complete the filing in a timely manner. Kamada shall reasonably consider Baxter’s comments in preparing said Patent Application for filing but will have discretion whether to accept or reject Baxter’s comments.

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(ii)         Kamada shall provide to Baxter a copy of all substantive paper(s) received from any patent office anywhere in the world related to the prosecution and maintenance of any Patent Application within the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights in the Baxter Territory. If Kamada fails to provide a substantive paper(s) in a timely manner, Kamada shall provide to Baxter a reasonable explanation for such failure and such failure, standing on its own, shall not be considered a material breach. No later than [*****] prior to filing a substantive response related to any Patent Application within the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights, Kamada shall provide to Baxter a draft response, and afford Baxter an opportunity to provide any comments Baxter may have. Baxter shall provide any such comments reasonably in advance of the filing date to permit Kamada to complete the filing in a timely manner. Kamada shall reasonably consider Baxter’s comments prior to finalizing and submitting the response but will have discretion whether to accept or reject Baxter’s comments.

 

3.2Patent Enforcement. Within and outside the Field, Kamada shall have the primary right, but not the obligation, to carry out actions against any Third Party arising from such Third Party’s actual or anticipated infringement of any Patent(s) within the scope of the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights or defend against a Third Party’s declaratory judgment action alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any Patent(s) within the scope of the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights, at Kamada’s expense. If Kamada determines that Baxter is an indispensable party to the action, Kamada shall provide written notice to Baxter and Baxter hereby consents to participate in such action. In such event, Baxter shall have the right to be represented in such action using counsel of its own choice, at its own expense. If Kamada brings an action within the Baxter Territory for infringement by a Third Party within the Field that results in a Litigation Award, then the Litigation Award shall be shared by the Parties as provided in Section 5.4. Any recovery against a Third Party by Kamada in an action relating to infringement outside the Field and/or outside the Baxter Territory shall be retained by Kamada to the extent such recovery addresses such infringement outside the Field and/or outside the Baxter Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Kamada agrees that it shall not enter into any settlement, consent, order, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any action it brings under this Section 3.2 relating to the Field and in the Baxter Territory without the prior written consent of Baxter (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

In the event that Kamada participates in such an action, but does not consent to representation by counsel selected by Baxter, Kamada shall have the right to be represented in such action using counsel of its own choice at its own expense. Baxter shall have no right to bring an action for infringement by a Third Party outside the Field or the Baxter Territory of any Patent within the scope of the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights.

 

(c)If Baxter brings an action for infringement or misappropriation by a Third Party under Section 3.3(a)(i) or (ii), or defends a declaratory judgment action brought by a Third Party alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any Patent(s) within the scope of the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights under Section 3.3(a)(iii) (in either case, with or without participation by Kamada), that results in a Litigation Award for damages within the Baxter Territory and the Field, then the Litigation Award shall be shared by the Parties as provided in Section 5.4. Any Litigation Award, or portion of a Litigation Award, which is for damages outside the Field or Baxter Territory shall be, as between the Parties, the exclusive property of Kamada.

 

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, Baxter agrees that it shall not enter into any settlement, consent, order, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any action it brings under this Section 3.3 without the prior written consent of Kamada (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

If, as the result of an action brought by Baxter under Section 3.3, a Third Party raises a defense or otherwise alleges the invalidity or unenforceability of any of the Patent rights contained within the scope of the Kamada Licensed Patent Rights being asserted in such action, Baxter shall consult with Kamada regarding the defense of the invalidity claim and Baxter shall reasonably consider Kamada’s comments in defending such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Baxter agrees that it shall not enter into any settlement, consent, order, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any action referred to under this Section 3.4 without the prior written consent of Kamada (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

6.5If Baxter requires additional Kamada resource time or requires consultancy and advice after using the [*****] personnel hours, which are for no additional consideration, or after [*****] from the Effective Date, the Parties may mutually agree on reasonable support. Whenever support including support provided under Section 6.2(c) requires Kamada personnel to travel to Baxter’s facilities or any other facility determined by Baxter, Baxter shall bear all reasonable travel expenses (including accommodation) and a per diem [*****] per day for meals.

11.3Claims for Indemnification. Whenever any indemnification claim arises under this Agreement, the Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis of such claim; provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation hereunder unless and to the extent that such failure substantially prejudices the Indemnifying Party.

 

11.4Third-Party Claims. In the event of a third party claim giving rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnifying Party may, upon prior written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and shall thereafter be liable for all expenses incurred in connection with such defense, including attorneys’ fees and expenses; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claim, the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense and with counsel of its choice; provided further, however, that if there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party or there exists any other conflict of interest, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such claim but the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party and to participate in the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party elects to control the defense of such claim, it shall do so diligently and shall have the right to settle any claim for monetary damages, provided such settlement includes a complete and absolute release of the Indemnified Party and shall not admit any fault or liability on the part of the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party may not settle any claims for fines, penalties or the like or in any way adverse to the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

11.5Insurance Requirements. Each Party will, at its own cost and expense, obtain and maintain in full force and effect, during the Term, General Liability insurance including Completed Operations, and Product Liability, including Standard US’ Form Contractual Liability, with limits of liability of not less than [*****] per event and in aggregate per annum, and naming the other Party as an additional insured. Any independent insurance carriers must be rated at least A by A.M. Best Company. If the insurance policy is written on a claims-made basis, then the coverage must be kept in place for at least [*****] the termination of this Agreement. Any and all policy deductibles shall be assumed by the Party obtaining such insurance policy. Policies held by a Party shall be considered primary and bear no relationship to any policies held by the other Party. Each Party will furnish the other Party with a certificate of insurance within [*****] of the Effective Date of this Agreement evidencing that such insurance is in effect and that a minimum of [*****] notice must be given to the other Party prior to any cancellation or material changes to the policy. Baxter has the right to self-insure.

11.7Cooperation as to Indemnified Liability. Each Party hereto shall reasonably cooperate with other Party with respect to access to witnesses, books, records, or other documentation within such Party’s control, if deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by any Party in the defense of any claim, which may give rise to indemnification hereunder.

ARTICLE 14.         MISCELLANEOUS.

 

14.1Relationship of Parties. The relationship of the Parties established by this Agreement is solely that of independent contractors, and nothing shall be deemed to create or imply any employer/employee, principal/agent, partner/partner or co-venturer relationship, or that the Parties are participants in a common undertaking. Neither Party shall have the right to direct or control the activities of the other Party or incur or assume or create any obligation, representation, warranty or guarantee, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party or bind such other Party to any obligation for any purpose whatsoever.

 

14.2Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the exhibits and schedules attached hereto and incorporated as an integral part of this Agreement, and the Related Agreements, constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all previous proposals, oral or written, and all negotiations, conversations or discussions heretofore had between the Parties related to this Agreement.

 

14.3No Waiver; Amendment. No waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement shall be valid or binding on any Party unless agreed to in writing by the Party to be charged. The failure of either Party to enforce at any time any of the provisions of the Agreement, or the failure to require at any time performance by the other Party of any of the provisions of this Agreement, shall in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provisions, nor in any way affect the ability of either Party to enforce each and every such provision thereafter. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by the written agreement of the Parties.

 

14.4Assignment.

 

(a)Except as provided in subsection (b), neither Party may assign or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party. Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of this provision shall be null and void.

 

(b)Unless prohibited by law, either Party may assign or otherwise transfer (whether by operation of law, change of control or otherwise) its rights and obligations under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party, (A) to an Affiliate, provided that the assigning Party remains responsible for the performance of this Agreement by such Affiliate or (B) in connection with a sale of all or substantially all of the assets or equity of the business entity, division or unit, as applicable, that conducts the Party’s activities under this Agreement, provided that in the case of such an asset sale such assignee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Prior to or promptly after any assignment not requiring consent of the other Party, the assigning Party shall give the other Party notice of the assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Kamada proposes to assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to a Competitor, Kamada and Baxter agree to work together in good faith prior such assignment to amend this Agreement to limit, to Baxter’s reasonable satisfaction, Baxter’s obligation to disclose to such Competitor any Confidential Information or other sensitive or proprietary information.

 

44
 

 

(c)All terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties.

 

14.5Force Majeure. Except for each Party’s confidentiality and indemnity obligations, any delay in the performance of any of the duties or obligations of either Party hereto (except the payment of money), to the extent caused by an event outside the affected Party’s reasonable control, shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement, and unless provided to the contrary herein, the time required for performance shall be extended for a period equal to the period of such delay. Such events (hereinafter referred to as “Force Majeure” events) shall include without limitation, acts of God; acts of public enemies; war, terrorism, insurrections; riots; injunctions; embargoes; labor disputes affecting third parties providing services to a Party under this Agreement (including strikes, lockouts, job actions, or boycotts); fires; explosions; floods; shortages of material or energy; acts or orders of any government or agency thereof or other unforeseeable causes beyond the reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of the Party so affected. The Party so affected shall give prompt written notice to the other Party of such cause and a good faith estimate of the continuing effect of the Force Majeure condition and duration of the affected Party’s nonperformance, and shall take whatever reasonable steps are appropriate to relieve the effect of such causes as rapidly as possible.

 

14.6Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, and enforcement of this Agreement and all matters arising directly and indirectly from this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to any conflicts or choice of law rules.

 

14.7Dispute Resolution. Except with respect to claims for equitable relief, which the Parties agree may be pursued in any court of competent jurisdiction, any dispute, controversy, claim or other matter in question between the Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including all issues of fact and law, shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the Alternative Dispute Resolution provisions set forth in Exhibit 14.7.

 

14.8Remedies. The exercise of any remedies hereunder shall be cumulative and in addition to and not in limitation of any other remedies available to such Party at law or in equity.

14.10            Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in more than one counterpart, each of which constitutes an original and all of which together shall constitute one enforceable agreement. For purposes of this Agreement and any other document required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, facsimiles or electronic reproductions of signatures shall be deemed to be original signatures. In addition, if any of the Parties sign facsimile copies of this Agreement, such copies shall be deemed originals.

 

14.11            Construction; Interpretation. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Any article, section, recital, exhibit, schedule and party references are to this Agreement unless otherwise stated. No Party, nor its counsel, shall be deemed the drafter of this Agreement for purposes of construing the provisions of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with their fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any Party. Except where the context otherwise requires, where used, the singular shall include the plural, the plural the singular, the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders and the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense (and/or). The term “includes” and “including” as used herein means including, but not limited to. Unless otherwise noted, “days” shall refer to calendar days and not business days. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Distribution Agreement or, if not defined therein, the Paste Supply Agreement.

 

14.12            Press Releases and Announcements; Use of Names. Neither Party may issue any press release or make any public announcement concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a press release or other public announcement with respect to the subject matter herein is required by applicable law or any listing agreement with a securities exchange or quotation system, the Party required to make such announcement may do so provided that such Party has provided reasonable notice and a copy of such announcement to the other Party as promptly as practicable in advance of such announcement and, to the extent practicable, take the views of the other Party in respect of such announcement into account prior to making such announcement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Baxter or Kamada shall not be prevented from mentioning the name of the other Party, or from disclosing any information if, and to the extent that, such mention or disclosure is to competent authorities for the purposes of obtaining Regulatory Approval or permission for the exercise of the License.

 

14.13            Severability. Each Party hereby agrees that it does not intend, by its execution hereof, to violate any public policy, statutory or common laws, rules, regulations, treaty or decision of any government agency or executive body thereof of any country or community or association of countries. Should one or more provisions of this Agreement be or become invalid, the Parties hereto shall substitute, by mutual consent, valid provisions for such invalid provisions which valid provisions in their economic and other effects are sufficiently similar to the invalid provisions that it can be reasonably assumed that the Parties would have entered into this Agreement with such valid provisions. In case such valid provisions cannot be agreed upon, the invalidity of one or several provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity of this Agreement as a whole or the validity of any portions hereof, unless the invalid provisions are of such essential importance to this Agreement that it is to be reasonably assumed that the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement without the invalid provisions.

 

46
 

 

14.14            Non-Solicitation. Each Party agrees that it shall not, during the Term and for one year afterwards, directly or indirectly, solicit the services, as employee, consultant or otherwise, any employee of the other Party; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 14.14 shall prohibit a Party or any Affiliate of such Party from: (a) hiring any employee that has responded to a general advertisement or solicitation made to the general public or the industry in general or (b) soliciting the services, as employee, consultant or otherwise, or hiring any such employee after the date that is [*****] after the date on which such employee leaves the employ of such other Party. In the event of a violation of this non-solicitation obligation, the violating Party shall pay to the other Party a penalty in the amount of the [*****] last annual salaries (including bonuses) of the respective employee/personnel; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the non-violating party from seeking other equitable relief (including, but not limited to, an injunction) to stop the solicitation or other violation and such other damages as determined in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 14.14 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Exhibit E

 

Alternative Dispute Resolution

(a)The Parties shall attempt to resolve any and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement promptly by negotiation between executives who have authority to settle the controversy. If such disputes, claims or controversies are not resolved through such negotiation, then they shall be submitted to CPR for mediation, and if the matter is not resolved through mediation, for final and binding arbitration pursuant to the arbitration clause set forth below. Either Party may initiate arbitration with respect to the matters submitted to negotiation by filing a written demand for arbitration at any time following the initial negotiation session.

 

(b)To the extent not resolved by mediation, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration conducted in the English language. The arbitration shall take place in New York, New York. The arbitration shall be administered by CPR pursuant to its Arbitration Rules and Procedures. References herein to any arbitration rules or procedures mean such rules or procedures as amended from time to time, including any successor rules or procedures, and references herein to the CPR include any successor thereto. The arbitration shall be before three (3) arbitrators. Each Party shall designate one arbitrator in accordance with the “screened” appointment procedure provided in Rule 5.4 of the CPR Rules. The two Party-appointed arbitrators will select the third, who will serve as the panel’s chair or president. All three (3) arbitrators shall have experience in the area under dispute. This arbitration provision, and the arbitration itself, shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, and the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16.

 

(c)Consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration, each Party will, upon the written request of the other Party, promptly provide the other with copies of documents on which the producing Party may rely in support of or in opposition to any claim or defense. At the request of a Party, the arbitrators shall have the discretion to order examination by deposition of witnesses to the extent the arbitrator deems such additional discovery relevant and appropriate. Depositions shall be limited to a maximum of [*****] per Party and shall be held within [*****] of the grant of a request. Additional depositions may be scheduled only with the permission of the arbitrators, and for good cause shown. Each deposition shall be limited to a maximum of one day’s duration. All objections are reserved for the arbitration hearing except for objections based on privilege and proprietary or confidential information. The Parties shall not utilize any other discovery mechanisms, including international processes and U.S. federal statutes, to obtain additional evidence for use in the arbitration. Any dispute regarding discovery, or the relevance or scope thereof, shall be determined by the arbitrators, which determination shall be conclusive. All discovery shall be completed within [*****] following the appointment of the arbitrators. All costs and/or fees relating to the retrieval, review and production of electronic discovery shall be paid by the Party requesting such discovery.

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

 
 

 

(d)The panel of arbitrators shall have no power to award non-monetary or equitable relief of any sort. The arbitrators will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing Party’s actual damages, except as may be required by statute. Each Party expressly waives and foregoes any right to consequential, punitive, special, exemplary or similar damages or lost profits. The arbitrators shall have no power or authority, under the CPR Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration or otherwise, to relieve the Parties from their agreement hereunder to arbitrate or otherwise to amend or disregard any provision of this Agreement. Subject to the provisions set forth in subsection ‎(e) below, the award of the arbitrators shall be final, binding and the sole and exclusive remedy to the Parties. Either Party may seek to confirm and enforce any final award entered in arbitration, in any court of competent jurisdiction. The cost of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrators, shall be borne by the Party the arbitrator determines has not prevailed in the arbitration.

 

(e)If an arbitral award does not contain an award of money damages in excess of [*****] then the arbitral award shall not be appealable and shall only be subject to such challenges as would otherwise be permissible under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. In the event that the arbitration results in an arbitral award, which imposes a monetary award in excess of [*****] such award may be appealed to a tribunal of appellate arbitrators via the CPR Arbitration Appeal Procedure, whose determination shall be final.

 

(f)Except as may be required by law, neither a Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties.

In the event of a Third Party claim giving rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnifying Party may, upon prior written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and shall thereafter be liable for all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such defense, including attorneys’ fees and expenses; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claim, the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense and with counsel of its choice; provided further, however, that if there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party or there exists any other conflict of interest, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such claim but the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party and to participate in the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party elects to control the defense of such claim, it shall do so diligently and shall have the right to settle any claim for monetary damages, provided such settlement includes a complete and absolute release of the Indemnified Party and shall not admit any fault or liability on the part of the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party may not settle any claims for fines, penalties or the like or in any way adverse to the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed.

THIS LIMITATION SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY PROVIDED FOR HEREIN. THE PARTIES AGREE, HOWEVER, THAT NONE OF THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS OF THIS SECTION 13.5(a) APPLY TO ANY AMOUNTS PAID OR PAYABLE DUE TO ANY THIRD-PARTY RELATED CLAIM, DEMAND, PROCEEDING, SUIT OR ACTION FOR WHICH A PARTY IS OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY THE OTHER PARTY PURSUANT TO SECTION 13.1 OR 13.2, AND ANY SUCH AMOUNTS WILL BE CONSIDERED COMPENSATORY OR DIRECT DAMAGES AND NOT INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, COLLATERAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES.

 

13.7        Third-Party Infringement.

 

(a)          Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any infringement or violation by any Third Party of any Kamada Intellectual Property rights related to the Product of which it becomes aware. In the case of any infringement or violation by any Third Party in the Territory of any Kamada Intellectual Property rights related to the Product, Kamada shall have the right but not the obligation, at its sole expense, to exercise its rights (including, without limitation, common law and statutory rights) to cause such Third Party to cease such infringement and to otherwise enforce such rights. If Kamada determines that Chiesi is an indispensable party to the action, Kamada shall provide written notice to Chiesi and Chiesi hereby consents to participate in such action. In such event, Chiesi shall have the right to be represented in such action using counsel of its own choice, at its own expense. No settlement of any such action or proceeding will be entered into by Kamada relating to the Field and the Territory without the prior written consent of Chiesi, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

(b)          If Kamada (i) fails to bring an action for infringement within the Field and within the Territory by a Third Party of any Kamada Intellectual Property within a period of [*****]provided, however, that Chiesi’s right below shall not be prejudiced by a time barring of the action within the said [*****] period, after providing written notice to or receiving written notice from Chiesi of the possibility of pursuing such an action, including the evidence supporting such possible action; or (ii) notifies Chiesi in writing prior to the expiration of such [*****], provided, however, that Chiesi’s right below shall not be prejudiced by a time barring of the action within the said [*****] period, that Kamada declines to bring an action for infringement within the Field and within the Territory; then, Chiesi shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any such action using counsel of its own choice, at its own expense on no less than [*****] prior written notice to Kamada.

(c)          If Chiesi determines that Kamada is an indispensable party to the action, Chiesi shall provide written notice to Kamada and Kamada hereby consents to participate in such action. To the extent that Kamada participates in such action and Kamada consents to be represented by counsel of Chiesi’s choosing, Chiesi shall pay Kamada’s reasonable expenses resulting from such action. In the event that Kamada participates in such an action, but does not consent to representation by counsel selected by Chiesi, Kamada shall have the right to be represented in such action using counsel of its own choice at its own expense. Chiesi shall have no right to bring an action for infringement by a Third Party outside the Field or outside the Territory of any Kamada Intellectual Property.

 

(d)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chiesi agrees that it shall not enter into any settlement, consent, order, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of any action it brings under this Section 13.7 without the prior written consent of Kamada (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

 

13.8        Infringement Defense. In the event either Party receives notice of any claim that the manufacture, use or Commercialization of the Product infringes the rights of a Third Party, it shall give prompt notice to the other Party and shall discuss in good faith alternative strategies for addressing the matter and cooperate with each other to terminate such infringement without litigation. After such discussion, Kamada shall have the right and obligation, at its sole cost and expense, to defend against such claim. Chiesi shall provide, at Kamada’s sole expense, such assistance and cooperation to Kamada as may be reasonably necessary to defend any such action, and Kamada shall have the right to settle such action for monetary damages, provided such settlement includes a complete and absolute release of Chiesi. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Kamada may not settle any claims for fines, penalties or the like or in any way adverse to Chiesi without the prior written consent of Chiesi, which shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed. In any event any payment relating to Kamada's Intellectual Property, to be made to such Third Party (either awarded or through the above settlement) shall be fully borne by Kamada, other than if the provisions of Section 13.2(d) above apply.

 

13.9        Cooperation as to Indemnified Liability. Each Party hereto shall reasonably cooperate with the other Party with respect to access to witnesses, books, records, or other documentation within such Party’s control, if deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by any Party in the defense of any claim, which may give rise to indemnification hereunder.

(a)          Either Party may terminate this Agreement, in whole or solely with respect to one or more countries in the Territory (as applicable), by giving notice in writing to the other Party if the other Party is in material breach of this Agreement and shall have failed to cure such breach within [*****] after receipt of a written notice from the non-breaching Party specifying the breach in detail from the non-breaching Party.

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

36
 

 

(d)          Kamada may terminate this Agreement, in whole or solely with respect to one or more countries in the Territory, upon [*****] written notice to Chiesi in the event that:

 

(i)          the EU Centralized Approval has been withdrawn and/or the Regulatory Approval in one or more countries has been withdrawn (in such event only with respect to such country or countries) or the application for the EU Centralized Approval has been rejected and/or Regulatory Approval in such country or countries has been rejected (in such event only with respect to such country or countries) and such decision has not been reversed within [*****] of its issuance, in each case by the applicable Regulatory Authority, and in each case provided that such withdrawal or rejection was not caused primarily by the breach by Kamada or any of its Affiliates of its obligations hereunder and provided, further, that Kamada’s termination right under this Section 14.2(d)(i) shall be limited to the affected geography.

 

(ii)         Chiesi fails to meet the Minimum Purchase Levels in all countries in the Territory pursuant to Section 6.3 above and such failure remains uncured for [*****] following written notice of such failure to Chiesi.

 

(e)          Kamada may terminate this Agreement, in whole or solely with respect to one or more countries in the Territory, upon written notice to Chiesi (effective immediately), if Chiesi or any Affiliated Party infringes, in any manner, any portion of Kamada’s Intellectual Property, unless such infringement is definitively ceased within [*****] following written notice thereof to Chiesi.

 

14.3        Rights and Obligations on Termination.

 

(a)          Upon any termination of this Agreement by Kamada with respect to one or all countries within the Territory pursuant to Sections 14.2(a), 14.2(b), 14.2(d) or 14.2(e) above, or by Chiesi pursuant to Section 14.2(c) above, Chiesi shall (i) immediately cease Commercializing or otherwise using the Product in such countries, (ii) cooperate with Kamada and use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to assist the integration of the entity that will assume Chiesi's responsibilities hereunder and (iii) furnish Kamada with: (x) a list of all of the patients treated by the Product in such countries, (y) the details of all sub-distributors and subagents who Commercialize the Product, and (z) copies of any agreements entered between Chiesi and any such sub-distributors and subagents.

 

(b)          Upon (i) any termination of this Agreement by Chiesi with respect to all countries within the Territory pursuant to Sections 14.2(a) or 14.2(b) above, and (ii) in the case of a termination by Chiesi pursuant to Section 14.2(a), the final arbitral determination pursuant to Section 16.6 below that Kamada in fact actually materially breached the Agreement, then Kamada shall be obliged to reimburse Chiesi, within [*****] any and all payments made by Chiesi up to such termination date under Sections 5.4 above (the Total Milestone Payments) as adjusted as follows (such adjusted amount the Material Breach Amount):

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

37
 

 

the [*****] by [*****] the [*****] of which represents the [*****] until the [*****] of the [*****] and the [*****] being [*****] (representing the [*****]). Thus, if Chiesi terminates this Agreement for material breach by Kamada [*****] following the [*****], and at the time of such termination, [*****] had actually been [*****] as the [*****], then [*****] shall be [*****], pursuant to the following calculation: [*****].

 

Chiesi shall have [*****] following the final arbitral determination pursuant to Section 16.6 below that Kamada in fact actually materially breached the Agreement to file a claim for damages incurred as a result of such material breach. If Chiesi does not elect to file such claim then the Material Breach Amount shall represent Chiesi's sole and exclusive and final remedy and the sole and exclusive liability of Kamada under this Agreement.

 

If Chiesi elects to file a claim for damages incurred as a result of such material breach by Kamada within such [*****] period, and a final arbitral award determines that the damages actually suffered by Chiesi as a result of the aforesaid material breach (the Actual Damages) are [*****] then Kamada shall pay to Chiesi [*****]. Thus if the final arbitral award determines that the Actual Damages amount to [*****] then Kamada shall pay to Chiesi an amount of [*****].

 

If Chiesi elects to file a claim for damages incurred as a result of such material breach by Kamada within such [*****] period, and a final arbitral award determines that the Actual Damages are [*****] then Chiesi shall pay to Kamada [*****]. Thus (in the above example) if the final arbitral award determines that the Actual Damages amount to [*****] then [*****] shall pay [*****] an amount of [*****] (using the above example) minus [*****] = [*****].

 

(c)          Upon the expiration of this Agreement, in the event Kamada offers to Chiesi any Agreement renewal on the same terms as set forth in this Agreement, and Chiesi refuses such renewal, then the transfer of the Trademark ownership provisions of Section 6.9 above shall also apply.

 

14.4        Effect of Termination. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement:

 

(a)          Termination or expiration of this Agreement, in whole or solely with respect to one or more countries in the Territory, shall not release either Party from the obligation to make payment of all amounts due and payable as of the applicable expiration or termination date.

 

(b)          If Kamada terminates this Agreement pursuant to Sections 14.2(a), 14.2(b), 14.2(d), or 14.2(e) above, Kamada shall have the right, at its option, to cancel any or all purchase orders that provide for delivery after the effective date of termination.

 

(c)          If Kamada terminates this Agreement pursuant to Sections 14.2(a), 14.2(b), 14.2(d), or 14.2(e), Chiesi shall reimburse Kamada at its actual cost therefore for any in-process materials and Product specific labels and inserts not otherwise useable or saleable by Kamada after exercise, by Kamada, of Commercially Reasonable Efforts to mitigate any such loss.

(d)          If Kamada terminates this Agreement pursuant to Sections 14.2(a), 14.2(b), 14.2(d), or 14.2(e) above, at Kamada’s election (i) Chiesi shall be permitted to resell any inventory of the Product on hand or en route or which has been ordered from Kamada at the time of termination and the license granted pursuant to Section 11.2 shall continue for [*****] or until all such units of Product have been sold, if earlier, or (ii) Kamada shall purchase Chiesi’s inventory on hand, provided that such inventory complies with the Specifications and that the expiration date on each unit of the Product shall allow Commercialization thereof, at the Transfer Price paid by Chiesi plus all shipping and other costs reasonably incurred by Chiesi in handling and storing such Product.

 

(e)          Chiesi’s and Kamada’s respective indemnification obligations and their other respective obligations pursuant to Sections 2.3, 5.4, 5.8 and 10.2, and ARTICLE 8, ARTICLE 11, ARTICLE 12, ARTICLE 13 (provided however, that the obligations under Section 13.5 shall be for the time period set forth therein), ARTICLE 15 and ARTICLE 16 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 16
MISCELLANEOUS

 

16.1        Relationship of Parties. The relationship of the Parties established by this Agreement is solely that of independent contractors, and nothing shall be deemed to create or imply any employer/employee, principal/agent, partner/partner or co-venturer relationship, or that the Parties are participants in a common undertaking. Neither Party shall have the right to direct or control the activities of the other Party or incur or assume or create any obligation, representation, warranty or guarantee, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party or bind such other Party to any obligation for any purpose whatsoever.

 

16.2        Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the exhibits and schedules attached hereto and incorporated as an integral part of this Agreement, the Quality Agreement and the SDEA constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all previous proposals, oral or written, and all negotiations, conversations or discussions heretofore had between the Parties related to this Agreement.

 

16.3        No Waiver; Amendment. No waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement shall be valid or binding on any Party unless agreed to in writing by the Party to be charged. The failure of either Party to enforce at any time any of the provisions of the Agreement, or the failure to require at any time performance by the other Party of any of the provisions of this Agreement, shall in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provisions, nor in any way affect the ability of either Party to enforce each and every such provision thereafter. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by the written agreement of the Parties. All purchase orders are subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and any attempt by such purchase order to alter or modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be void.

 

16.4        Assignment.

 

(a)          Except as provided below, neither Party may assign or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party. Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of this provision shall be null and void. Unless prohibited by law, either Party may assign or otherwise transfer (whether by operation of law, change of control or otherwise) its rights and obligations under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party, (A) to an Affiliate, provided that the assigning Party remains responsible for the performance of this Agreement by such Affiliate, or (B) in connection with a sale of all or substantially all of the assets or equity of either Party, provided that in the case of such an asset sale such assignee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Prior to or promptly after any assignment not requiring consent of the other Party, either Party shall give the other Party notice of the assignment.

 

40
 

 

(b)          All terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties.

 

16.5         Force Majeure. Except for each Party’s confidentiality and indemnity obligations and its obligations to make any payments in accordance with this Agreement, any delay in the performance of any of the duties or obligations of either Party hereto (except the payment of money), to the extent caused by an event outside the affected Party’s reasonable control, shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement, and unless provided to the contrary herein, the time required for performance shall be extended for a period equal to the period of such delay. Such events (hereinafter referred to as Force Majeure events) shall include without limitation, acts of God; acts of public enemies; war, terrorism, insurrections; riots; injunctions; embargoes; labor disputes affecting Third Parties providing services to a Party under this Agreement (including strikes, lockouts, job actions, or boycotts); fires; explosions; floods; shortages of material or energy; batch rejections (even though such events are typically foreseeable in the pharma industry), acts or orders of any government or agency thereof or other causes beyond the reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of the Party so affected. The Party so affected shall give prompt written notice to the other Party of such cause and a good faith estimate of the continuing effect of the Force Majeure condition and duration of the affected Party’s nonperformance, and shall take whatever reasonable steps are appropriate to relieve the effect of such causes as rapidly as possible. If the circumstances of Force Majeure affect the other Party’s performance herein or delays performance for more than [*****] consecutive days, then the other Party may terminate this Agreement upon [*****] advance written notice with such termination to be effective as of the first day of such force majeure event.

Unless the Parties can mutually agree on one neutral arbitrator, the arbitration shall be conducted by three (3) neutral arbitrators nominated as follows: each Party shall nominate one (1) arbitrator and the third arbitrator shall be selected by the first two (2) arbitrators; provided that if the first two (2) arbitrators do not make a selection within thirty (30) calendar days after the appointment of the second arbitrator, then the third arbitrator shall be selected by ICC under its standard selection procedures.

41
 

 

(c)          Any final arbitral award shall be in writing and shall state the reasons for the award. It will be final and binding on each of the Parties (and their permitted successors and assigns, if any) and shall be enforceable anywhere in the world. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the signatories hereto agree that any final arbitral award may be enforced in any of the courts located in Israel or in the Territory, in accordance with the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. For the purpose of the enforcement of such final arbitral award in any court located in Israel or in the Territory only: each signatory hereto consents and submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts situated in Israel or in the Territory and further waives any claim or defense based on any alleged lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, forum non conveniens or other similar challenge in such courts, and waives trial by jury. The cost of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrators, shall be borne by the Party the arbitrator determines has not prevailed in the arbitration.

 

(d)          All arbitral proceedings shall be confidential and the Parties agree that neither the Parties nor the arbitrators may disclose the existence or content of the arbitration. The Parties further agree that the results of the arbitration will remain confidential and shall not reveal the final award to any Third Party, except: (i) to enforce a final arbitral award; (ii) as required by Applicable Law and Guidelines, including but not limited to applicable disclosure requirements imposed by the laws, regulations, or rules of any jurisdiction or stock exchange to which a Party is subject to or discovery requests by Third Parties in subsequent litigation (provided that the Party subject to any such requirement shall provide advance written notice thereof as soon as practicable and shall not contest or object to any efforts by the other Party to seek protective arrangements); (iii) as is reasonably necessary to be disclosed to the Parties’ employees, investors, potential investors, Representatives, or bondholders (provided that such parties are advised of the confidentiality of the information and are bound to maintain the confidentiality of such information); or (iv) as is reasonably necessary to the defense of any action to which the final award may apply.

 

(e)          Notwithstanding the above, either Party may seek injunctive relief, or obtain any other provisional remedy, from any court of competent jurisdiction, to prevent irreparable harm or preserve the status quo, as may be necessary in its sole judgment, to protect its rights.

 

16.7         Remedies. The exercise of any remedies hereunder shall be cumulative and in addition to and not in limitation of any other remedies available to such Party at law or in equity.

 

16.8         Further Assurances. Each Party agrees to cooperate fully with the other and execute such instruments, documents and agreements and take such further actions to carry out the intents and purposes of this Agreement.

 

42
 

 

16.9         Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in more than one counterpart, each of which constitutes an original and all of which together shall constitute one enforceable agreement. For purposes of this Agreement and any other document required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, facsimiles or electronic reproductions of signatures shall be deemed to be original signatures. In addition, if any of the Parties sign facsimile copies of this Agreement, such copies shall be deemed originals.

 

16.10         Construction; Interpretation. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Any article, section, recital, exhibit, schedule and party references are to this Agreement unless otherwise stated. No Party, nor its counsel, shall be deemed the drafter of this Agreement for purposes of construing the provisions of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with their fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any Party. Except where the context otherwise requires, where used, the singular shall include the plural, the plural the singular, the use of any gender shall be applicable to all genders and the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense (and/or). The term “includes” and “including” as used herein means including, but not limited to. Unless otherwise noted, “days” shall refer to calendar days and not business days.

 

16.11         Press Releases and Announcements; Use of Names. Neither Party may issue any press release or make any public announcement concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any public announcement with respect to the subject matter herein is required by Applicable Laws and Guidelines or any listing agreement with a securities exchange or quotation system, the Party required to make such announcement may do so provided that such Party has provided reasonable notice and a copy of such announcement to the other Party as promptly as practicable in advance of such announcement and, to the extent practicable, take the views of the other Party in respect of such announcement into account prior to making such announcement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chiesi or Kamada shall not be prevented from mentioning the name of the other Party, or from disclosing any information if, and to the extent that, such mention or disclosure is to competent authorities for the purposes of obtaining EU Centralized Approval or Regulatory Approval or permission for the exercise of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

16.12         Severability.

Any update of the Budget, and any deviation of more than [*****] from any Budget item shall be subject to the written prior approval of both Project Directors, subject to Section 4.6 Any such joint decision and/or approval shall bind the parties.

 

4.10.Notwithstanding Section 4.7, neither party shall be reimbursed by the other party for, and such other party shall solely bear, any out-of-pocket expense, which is not itemized in the Budget or which exceeds the corresponding Budget item by more than [*****] unless such expense was approved in writing by the Project Directors pursuant to Section 4.9.

 

4.11.The parties acknowledge and agree that if the actual aggregate out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the parties in performing the Project exceed the Cap Amount, Kamada may, at its sole discretion, continue with the Project. In such event, and unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, Kamada shall be responsible for the out-of-pocket expenses beyond the Cap Amount. The reimbursement of PARI or any other third party for any such exceeding expenses shall be subject to Kamada's prior written approval of such exceeding expenses.

4.12.Should Kamada determine in writing, with respect to any country, that it will not, directly or indirectly (a) seek registration of the Drug Product with the Competent Regulatory Authority in such country; or (b) offer for sale Products to end user patients in such country, then Kamada must promptly notify PARI in writing and upon PARI's request, the parties shall negotiate in good faith and agree in writing on the terms and conditions under which PARI shall purchase the Drug Product from Kamada, and Kamada shall supply the Drug Product to PARI, for distribution in such country. Such supply and distribution agreement, if executed, shall include, inter alia, the grant to PARI of a sublicensable (subject to the terms and conditions of Section 3.3, mutatis mutandis), limited in time, right and license to seek approval from and/or registration with the Competent Regulatory Authorities, import, use, sell, have sold, offer for sale, market and/or promote the Drug Product for use with the Device, in such country, and other provisions as customary in the pharmaceutical industry in agreements of that kind. Such supply and distribution agreement shall be automatically renewed for additional periods as shall be agreed on by the parties unless Kamada notifies PARI in advance of its wish to take upon itself the distribution of the Drug Product in such country (either directly or through a third party distributor or sub-licensee); and upon such notification to PARI, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith, on a case-by-case basis, Kamada’s appropriate compensation to PARI in consideration for PARI’s market development up to the time Kamada assumes distribution in the relevant country. PARI’s efforts consistent with the terms and conditions of such supply and distribution agreement shall not be deemed a violation of Section 3.2 or any other provision of this Agreement. In the event PARI avails itself of the rights set forth in this Section 4.12 with respect to any country, Kamada shall, at its own expense, provide PARI with any and all information, data and documentation, including without limitation reference to any Drug Product registration file, in English, as shall be required by any such Competent Regulatory Authority for the registration of any Product in such country, and PARI shall be entitled to incorporate any such information, data and/or documentation in the registration file of any Product for the exclusive purpose of filing and registering such Product with the Competent Regulatory Authority in such country. PARI shall be the exclusive title holder of the marketing license of any such Product in any such country as contemplated by this Section 4.12, which rights shall not be assigned or transferred by PARI to any third party without Kamada's prior written consent (except in cases where such assignment or transfer is to an Affiliate of PARI, in which cases no prior written consent shall be required), and shall automatically revert to Kamada upon the termination or expiration of such supply and distribution agreement. It is clarified that Kamada shall not pay to PARI any Royalties or other payments with respect to the sales of any Products in any such country.

 

4.13.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Kamada shall pay (i) all costs and expenses associated with any [*****] performed in connection with this Agreement, and (ii) any and all [*****] in connection with this Agreement to the extent that the relevant consultation services pertain solely to the Drug Product.

PARI shall fully cooperate with Kamada and provide Kamada with any assistance and/or information and/or documentation, as shall be reasonably required in order to obtain such pre-ruling.  If the foregoing request for pre-ruling is conditioned or rejected by the ITA, in whole or in part, Kamada shall so inform PARI in writing, and the parties shall work together, basing on their tax consultants' advise, to fulfill the conditions stipulated by the ITA or to find another legitimate way that will bring to the same results (i.e. – enabling Kamada to credit input VAT on its Reimbursable Expenditures and/or exempting any reimbursements paid by PARI to Kamada from VAT).

 

5.6. All payments hereunder made in any currency other than United States Dollars or Euros shall be converted to US Dollars or Euros using an exchange rate equal to the exchange rate for the purchase of United States Dollars or Euros, as reported by the European Central Bank on the date of the respective invoice.

 

6.The Device and its Supply

 

6.1.PARI, at its own cost, will develop and implement such adjustments and Improvements (including, without limitation the eKey system) to the Present Device pursuant to this Agreement (including without limitation the development work and the Improvements that are explicitly described in Appendix ‘D’ in order to meet the target performance characteristics and specifications set forth in Appendix ‘D’), including without limitation the target specifications of the eKey System, and as shall be reasonably required for the clinical development (phases II & III), registration with Competent Regulatory Authorities and/or marketing of any Product by Kamada and/or any of its distributors and/or permitted sublicensees in any country in the Territory for the First Two Indications. It is clarified that PARI shall not be required to implement any such adjustments and Improvements prior to the Phase I Clinical Trials (i.e. the Present Device shall be used in the Phase I Clinical Trials as is, in compliance with the performance characteristics ascribed to it in Appendix ‘D’).

 

13
 

 

The values/ranges of the performance characteristics ascribed to the Present Device in Appendix 'D' are final and binding on the parties. The target values/ranges of MMD and GSD ascribed to the Device in Appendix 'D' are final and binding on the parties; the other target performance characteristics ascribed to the Device in Appendix 'D' (i.e. delivered dose and output rate) are of a non-binding nature. Nevertheless, PARI undertakes to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Device developed under this Agreement will comply with such non-binding target performance characteristics as well. Without derogating from PARI's foregoing undertaking, it is agreed that in any event shall the actual values/ranges of the Device's performance characteristics be at least equivalent (if not better) to the respective values/ranges of the Present Device (as set forth in Appendix 'D'). Upon their update in accordance with Section 1.40, the Specifications will become completely binding on the parties, including without limitation the values of all performance characteristics.

Following the update of the Specifications by the parties pursuant to Section 1.40, PARI shall conduct, at its own cost, breath simulation tests of the Device with the Drug Product to (i) ensure the Device's compliance with the Specifications; and (ii) characterize the performance of the Device to the satisfaction of the Competent Regulatory Authorities. Such tests shall be conducted in compliance with the Competent Regulatory Authorities' standards and requirements as shall be in effect from time to time. Any documentation with respect to the updated Specifications, including, without limitation, the performance characteristics of the Device required by any Competent Regulatory Authority, including, without limitation, any agreed upon design modifications, shall be completed by PARI no later than the Phase II Target Date, so that Kamada can include the description of the Device that meets the updated Specifications in the application for approval of the Phase II/III clinical trial of the Drug Product with the Device (the IMPD) for the First Two Indications. Kamada shall supply to PARI such quantities of the Drug Product and perform analyses as may be required for the foregoing tests.

PARI shall provide Kamada, at PARI's own cost and expense, with Devices (including, without limitation, the Cleaning Method and/or any accessory based on the Cleaning Method, all upon mutual agreement of the parties), replacement parts and regulatory, R&D and other technical support, as shall reasonably be requested by Kamada and/or any permitted sublicensee thereof for the successful completion of the clinical trials (Phase I, II and III) and registration (including any renewals of registration) of any such Product with any Competent Regulatory Authority, including without limitation, training of Kamada's or Kamada's permitted sublicensee’s sub-contractor's designated personnel in using the Device during the Products' clinical trials (phases I, II and III), which training shall be reasonable and coordinated in advance with PARI. PARI shall provide Kamada with first free samples of the Device complying with the updated Specifications no later than [*****].

Without derogating from the above, PARI hereby undertakes to continue the development of an option for cleaning or cleaning method for use with the Device that may or may not consist of or include a cleaning device, which cleaning method shall meet the regulatory requirements of the Competent Regulatory Authorities (the "Cleaning Method"). The Cleaning Method shall effectively clean [*****].The parties agree to work together in determining the final performance specifications for such Cleaning Method and thereafter PARI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the development of a Cleaning Method prior to the Phase II/III clinical trials for the first of the First Two Indications. In the event such Cleaning Method is not completed by such Phase II/III clinical trials, then PARI shall provide a commercially reasonable alternative for use with the Device that otherwise meets all requirements established by parties hereunder (including, without limitation, meeting the requirements of the Competent Regulatory Authorities as shall be in effect from time to time).

 

6.2.During the Royalties Period, PARI shall continue providing Kamada and/or Kamada's permitted sublicensees, at PARI's own cost and expense, with regulatory and technical support beyond clinical trials and registration, as may be reasonably requested by Kamada with respect to the marketing, distribution and sales of Products, worldwide. Such support shall include, inter alia, training of the designated personnel of Kamada and/or Kamada's distributors and/or sub-licensees, as the case may be, as shall be reasonably necessary to qualify such personnel to provide Device related maintenance and support services to end user patients.

 

6.3.Kamada may, at its sole discretion, but shall not be obliged to, register any Product with any Competent Regulatory Authority, worldwide; provided that Kamada shall be obligated to use reasonable efforts to register a Product with a Competent Regulatory Authority in at least a Major EU Country and the United States of America. Without derogating from Section 6.1, PARI shall provide Kamada, at PARI's own cost and expense, with any and all information, data and documentation, including without limitation reference to the Device registration file, in English, or make such registration file to the Competent Regulatory Authority, as shall be required by any such Competent Regulatory Authority for the registration of any Product for the First Two Indications, and Kamada shall be entitled to incorporate any such information, data and/or documentation in the registration file of any Product. Kamada shall exclusively own any and all title and right in and to any registration file of any Product, excluding any registration file pertaining solely to the Device.

 

6.4.The parties shall enter into a definitive supply agreement providing for the supply of Devices (including, without limitation, the Cleaning Method and/or any accessory based on the Cleaning Method, all upon mutual agreement of the parties) and replacement parts, improved and adjusted for use with the Drug Product in accordance with Section 6.1, from PARI or its contract manufacturer to Kamada and/or any of its distributors and/or permitted sublicensees (the "Supply Agreement"), and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute such Supply Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than [*****], which deadline may be postponed by mutual written consent of the parties. The parties shall negotiate with one another in good faith with respect to the Supply Agreement, which shall incorporate the terms set forth on Appendix 'G' hereto and other customary terms for a supply relationship of this nature.

6.5.Subject to termination of this Agreement and until such termination, the cost of the Devices for use in clinical trials and regulatory efforts and the support services provided by PARI to Kamada and/or Kamada's permitted sublicensees as mentioned in this Section 6 shall be exclusively incurred by PARI in addition to its share in funding the out-of-pocket expenses related to the Project pursuant to Section 4 above, and the cost of the Drug Product/Kamada’s API for use in clinical trials shall be exclusively incurred by Kamada in addition to its share in funding the out-of-pocket expenses related to the Project.

 

6.6.The cumulative quantity of the Device (including, without limitation, the Cleaning Method and/or any accessory based on the Cleaning Method, all upon mutual agreement of the parties) required for the clinical trials of Products for the First Two Indications, combined, is estimated by the parties to be [*****] (of both the Device and the Cleaning Method and/or any accessory based on the Cleaning Method, all upon mutual agreement of the parties) + replacement parts as necessary. Kamada, on its part, undertakes to supply, at its expense, such quantity of its Drug Product, as shall be required for the same purpose. The foregoing is a non-binding estimation and the parties may, from time to time, discuss and mutually agree on extending the quantity of clinical trial supplies, if needed, to such quantities and timelines as actually required according to the clinical trial plan, including, without limitation, if the clinical trial is extended to additional indications (beyond the First Two Indications) and/or in the event that additional trials are required by any Competent Regulatory Authority.

 

6.7.PARI will (1) notify Kamada in writing, reasonable time in advance and, to the extent covered under the same regulatory marketing authorization for the Device (510(k), CE-marking, or similar), of any planned changes and/or Improvements in or to the Device (including, without limitation, the Cleaning Method) that potentially affect (w) the quality requirements established by a Competent Regulatory Authority, or (x) the compliance of the Device with the Specifications (including, without limitation, the performance characteristics of the Device and/or eKey System set forth in Appendix 'D' as shall be updated according to Section 1.40) or (y) the user interface (including the eKey System) or (z) the useful lifetime of the Device or any part thereof as stated in the Device Specifications (as shall be updated according to Section 1.40), and (2) supply to Kamada, at Kamada's request, any and all such improved models of the Device (including, without limitation, the Cleaning Method and/or any accessory based on the Cleaning Method, all upon mutual agreement of the parties), on an exclusive basis, for use with the Drug Product under the License and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. PARI shall not implement any changes and/or Improvements in or to the Device (including, without limitation, to the Cleaning Method) to be used with the Drug Product, without Kamada's prior written consent, if the improved model of the Device (following such changes and/or Improvements) might not fully comply with the finally agreed upon Specifications, the preliminary target specifications which are set forth in Appendix 'D,' and/or if such approved model might not comply with then existing registration and/or require additional trial.

6.8.Throughout the Term hereof and with reasonable advance written notice, PARI and its respective suppliers and sub-contractors shall permit, during normal business hours, an audit inspection of their development, manufacturing and control facilities by personnel of, or designated representatives of, Kamada.

 

6.9.PARI hereby undertakes to make commercially reasonable efforts to continue developing the Device and implementing additional Improvements thereto (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the next paragraph of this Section 6.9), during the Phase II/III clinical trial of the Drug Product and thereafter, as may be necessary from time to time to keep the Device competitive with other devices with comparable configuration and performance charactertistics, provided that the improved Device comprising of such additional agreed on Improvements (an “Upgraded Device) (x) is still based on the eFlow platform, (y) that the marketing and sale of such Upgraded Device, for use with the Drug Product, is allowed under the then existing regulatory approvals of the Device in the United States of America and/or a Major EU Country, or, (z) includes performance specifications consistent with the Device used in the clinical trials conducted under this Agreement (Phases II/III) that are acceptable to the relevant Competent Regulatory Authority. Subject to the provisions of the next paragraph, PARI shall perform such additional development work at its own cost and expense in compliance with a time table as shall be agreed upon in writing by the parties. In the event that PARI develops such Upgraded Device and Kamada accepts the Improvements in accordance with the procedures set forth in the next paragraph, the definition of the Device set forth in Section 1.8 shall be automatically extended to include the Upgraded Device and all the provisions of the Agreement applying to the Device shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the Upgraded Device as well.

 

17
 

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if PARI develops an Improvement to the Device, PARI shall immediately notify Kamada in writing of such Improvement and offer Kamada an opportunity to review such Improvement, providing it with all documentation and information related thereto, for a period [*****] days following such notice, in order for Kamada to determine whether it wishes to license such Improvement. If Kamada determines (by giving written notice to PARI) within such [*****] day period that it desires to license such Improvement and include such Improvement in the Device, the parties shall negotiate in good faith and agree on the terms and conditions under which such Improvement shall be included in the Device and become subject, together with all related know-how and intellectual property, to the terms and conditions applying to the Device and/or the Device Related IP hereunder. If Kamada does not give written notice to PARI within the [*****] day period of its desire to license such Improvement, Kamada shall be deemed to have rejected the Improvement and PARI shall have no obligation to include the Improvement in the Device. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if PARI develops an Improvement and desires to obtain patent protection for such Improvement, PARI shall be free to obtain such protection and may take all steps necessary, appropriate or advisable thereto, provided that Kamada's rights under this Agreement shall not be restricted or limited in any way. It is clarified that this paragraph shall not apply to any Improvements developed and/or implemented at any time by PARI pursuant to Section 6.1, which Improvements shall be deemed as part of the Device for the purpose of this Agreement, and therefore will not require Kamada to obtain any new license beyond the License. It is further clarified that neither the Royalties Period nor the Royalties rate shall be affected by the filing of any patent application and/or the issuance of any patent in connection with such Improvements pursuant to Section 6.1.

11.1.As a total consideration for the License and for the fulfillment of PARI's other obligations under this Agreement, Kamada shall pay PARI with respect to each Drug Product, during the Royalties Period (on a country-by-country basis), royalties at a rate of (i) [*****] of Net Sales for the annual Net Sales up to [*****] during any given year during the Royalties Period, and (ii) [*****] of Net Sales with respect to that portion of Net Sales in excess [*****] and up to [*****], and (iii) [*****] of Net Sales with respect to that portion of Net Sales in excess of US $250 Million, during such year (the "Royalties"). In the event that, after [*****] years following the First Commercial Sale of a Product in a given country, the Device is not covered by any of PARI's Essential Patents in such country, the Royalties rate to be paid by Kamada on Net Sales of the Drug Product in such country going forward during the Royalties Period shall in no event be higher than [*****] and if, in addition to the foregoing, Kamada can demonstrate by reasonably sufficient evidence that there is a competitive nebulizer being sold in such country that includes a feature or component covered by PARI’s Essential Patents, Kamada shall pay PARI with respect to each Drug Product, going forward during the Royalties Period, royalties on Net Sales of the Drug Product in such country equal to [*****] of the foregoing rates, provided, however, that as long as a Joint Patent remains valid the royalty rate under (iii) above will only be reduced by [*****] (which means a [*****] royalty rate). In the event that a Product commercialized in a country is only covered under the claim(s) of a Joint Patent, Kamada shall pay PARI with respect to each Drug Product, during the Royalties Period, royalties at a rate of [*****] of Net Sales of the Drug Product in such country. Following the expiration of the Royalties Period, the License shall turn into a non-exclusive, royalty free license, and Kamada may continue to exploit the rights granted to it under the License without paying any royalties or other consideration to PARI in connection therewith; provided, however, that PARI shall no longer be obligated to adhere to the provisions of Section 3.2 hereof.

 

11.2.In the event that Kamada desires to sublicense and determines in good faith that it would be economically unfeasible to sublicense given the Royalties rate set forth in Section 11.1, then upon the request of Kamada, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith, on a case-by-case basis: (i) an adjustment of the Royalties rate, and (ii) additional compensation for PARI as a result of such sublicense (which may include a one-time up-front payment to PARI), all in order to permit such a sublicense on commercially feasible terms taking into account the relative contributions of the parties until such time of sublicense. However, no such adjustment would be effective unless mutually agreed upon in writing.

11.3.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is clarified that neither party hereto shall be entitled to any royalties or other consideration in connection with any income that the other party might generate as a result of contract manufacturing of its own product(s) (the Drug Product by Kamada, or the Device by PARI), granting manufacturing rights related to its own product(s) and/or as a result of transferring and/or licensing technology and/or know-how and/or providing technical support services in relation to such products to such licensees. If either party intentionally entered into such a transaction in order to avoid any payment to the other party hereunder, and any payments received by such party within the framework of such transaction come in lieu of and/or shift revenue from sales of such party's product(s), which would otherwise be subject to payment of royalties or any other payments to the other party hereunder, then the parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 11.3 shall not apply. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, PARI shall not be entitled to any royalties or other consideration with respect to any income generated by Kamada in connection with Kamada's API to be given by intravenous route.

 

11.4.PARI will pay to Kamada during the Royalties Period (on a country-by-country basis and provided that Kamada and its sublicensees pay Royalties to PARI in accordance with this Agreement) royalties at a rate of [*****] of PARI's annual Net Sales of the Device (excluding replacement parts) for use with the Drug Product for the amount of such Net Sales in excess of [*****].If the parties agree to collaborate with respect to additional indication(s) beyond the First Two Indications, the Net Sales of the Device for use with the Drug Product for such additional indication(s) shall aggregate to the Net Sales of the Device for the purpose of this Section 11.4 and Section 12. Following the expiration of the Royalties Period, PARI may continue to exploit its rights in the Device, subject to Section 3.2, without paying any royalties or other consideration to Kamada in connection therewith.

21.2.1.be declared bankrupt or insolvent, or request or suffer the appointment of a receiver for its assets, or make a composition with its creditors or take or suffer any similar action in consequence of debt; or

 

21.2.2.fail to make any payment due to the other party under this Agreement for a period of [*****] days following notice from the terminating party that such payment is due; or

 

21.2.3.otherwise breach any material provision of this Agreement, and fail to cure such breach within [*****] days following its receipt of a corresponding notice from the terminating party.

 

21.3.Either party may terminate this Agreement, without raising any claim against the other party, in the event that the other party fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement due to circumstances of force majeure, as provided in Section 22.1, which circumstances continue for more than [*****].

21.5.At PARI's request upon the occurrence of any of the following events, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to determine whether or not they wish to proceed with the collaboration under this Agreement. If the parties fail to agree on the continuation of such collaboration within one hundred and eighty (180) days from Kamada receipt of PARI's request, then PARI shall be entitled to (x) make the License non-exclusive, in which case the restrictions set forth in Section 3.2 shall no longer apply to PARI, or (y) terminate this Agreement, and neither party shall raise any claim against the other party with respect to occurrence of any of the following events and/or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 21:

 

21.5.1.The EMEA or other Competent Regulatory Authority, as the case may be, requires extending the scope of the Drug Product's clinical trials in a manner that is expected to cause the actual out-of-pocket expenses related to the Project to exceed the Cap Amount, except if such exceeding expenses are fully incurred by Kamada and/or any third party.

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

21.5.2.Phase II of the clinical trials of any Drug Product for the first of the First Two Indications shall not have commenced by the earlier of (x) June [*****] or (y) [*****] receiving the relevant approval from any Competent Regulatory Authority for the first indication included in the First Two Indications, unless the reason for such delay is beyond Kamada’s reasonable control. Without derogating from the foregoing, it is agreed that any delay resulting from new requirements of a Competent Regulatory Authority and/or failure to recruit subjects to the clinical trial despite of Kamada's best efforts shall be deemed beyond Kamada's control.

 

21.5.3.No Drug Product is successfully registered with any Competent Regulatory Authority within [*****] years following the Effective Date, except if such failure to register is due reasons or circumstances under PARI's control.

 

21.5.4.First Commercial Sale of any Drug Product shall not have commenced anywhere within [*****] from the first registration of a Drug Product with any Competent Regulatory Authority.

 

21.5.5.In the event that Kamada ceases the development of the Drug Product for use with the Device hereunder, including, without limitation, any clinical and/or regulatory development work and any development work by any of its Affiliates and/or sublicensees, for a continuous period exceeding [*****].

 

21.6.Kamada may terminate this Agreement, in whole or with respect to any specific country, by giving a [*****] advance written notice to PARI, in the event of:

 

(i)a non-appealable final order or judgment that the Device infringes a third party’s rights is issued; or

 

(ii)an injunction barring PARI’s use of the Device is issued and remains in place for more than [*****]; or

 

(iii)the clinical trial of the Drug Product (Phase I, II or III), is terminated or fails solely as a result of (x) the Device not conforming to the Specifications as set forth in Appendix ‘D’ or (y) PARI’s inability to supply the Device to Kamada for purposes of the clinical trial of the Drug Product that prevents Kamada from being able to timely conduct such clinical trial, and the reasons set forth in subparagraphs (x) and (y) have not been cured by PARI within [*****] of (a) PARI having been notified by Kamada in writing of the termination or failure of the clinical trial and (b) PARI having received reasonable evidence to its reasonable satisfaction that the clinical trial was terminated or failed solely or mainly as a result of the reasons described in subparagraphs (x) or (y) above; or

 

(iv)in the event PARI fails registering and maintaining (subject to a [*****] month cure period) the registration of the Device under the EU Medical Device Directive (CE marking) and the FDA 510(k) marketing authorization within [*****] from the final report of Phase III clinical trial of the Drug Product for the first indication included in the First Two Indications.

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

33
 

 

Without derogating from Kamada's right to terminate this Agreement as stated in options (i) and (ii) above, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, as long as a judicial order or judgment that the Device infringes third party's rights or injunction barring use of the Device is not cancelled or reversed, Kamada shall be exempted from paying any Royalties or other payments to PARI with respect to sales of the Drug Product in such country. PARI will update Kamada in writing, on a [*****] basis and upon Kamada's request, regarding the status of any such judicial process. Once a judicial order or judgment that the Device infringes has been cancelled or reversed by a non-appealable final order or judgment, however, Kamada shall (x) immediately resume payment of all Royalties due to PARI hereunder, and (y) within [*****] of such cancellation or reversal, pay to PARI all back Royalties previously due to PARI that accrued during the period Kamada did not pay Royalties, plus interest equal to the interest rate then quoted by Bank Leumi Le'Israel Ltd. for [*****] deposit of US Dollars or Euros, as the case may be, in accordance to the respective currency in which such Royalties should have been originally paid pursuant to Section 12.3, calculated from the date Kamada stopped paying royalties through the date of payment hereunder.

If the Device becomes or is likely to become the subject of a suit or claim of patent or copyright infringement, PARI at its option and expense shall (x) obtain the right for Kamada to use the Device, or (y) replace or modify the Device so it becomes non-infringing subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. PARI may choose option (y) above, only if: (i) such replacement or modification of the Device by PARI is completed within [*****] of cessation by Kamada of Drug Product commercialization due to such alleged infringement as a result of an injunction barring PARI’s use of the Device or an order or judgment that the Device infringes a third party’s rights; and (ii) the replacement Device performs in accordance with the established Specifications set forth in Appendix D as shall be finalized by the parties during the Term hereof, and (iii) as long as the replacement Device complies with the requirements of any Competent Regulatory Authority (to the extent the infringing Device did); and (iv) the parties reach an agreement, acting in good faith, regarding Kamada's reimbursement, if any, by PARI for any reasonable additional costs and expenses incurred by Kamada as a result of additional or new clinical studies and/or tests required by the Competent Regulatory Authority as a direct result of such replacement or modification of the Device.

 

21.7.Termination shall not relieve either party of any obligations (including payment obligations) which have accrued prior to the effective date of such termination. In the case of any breach of the terms of the License, a decision not to terminate does not reduce or eliminate any recourse otherwise available to either party. Except as set forth in Section 21.9 below, upon any termination of this Agreement, all rights under the License shall automatically terminate and revert to PARI.

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

21.8.Those provisions of this Agreement which are intended to survive the termination, expiration or nullification of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 3.2, 3.4, 10, 11.1 and 11.4 (both Sections - only with respect to the royalty-free non-exclusive license following the expiration of the Royalties Period), 12 (only with respect to royalties accrued during the Term), 15, 17.2, 17.3, 18, 20, 21.5, 21.6 (only with respect to pay back of Royalties to PARI following cancellation or reversal of judgment that the Device infringes), 21.7, 21.8, 21.9, 23, 24, 25, 26 and 27, shall so survive and shall be enforceable according to the terms set forth herein.

 

21.9.If this Agreement is terminated by Kamada pursuant to Section 21.2, Kamada shall retain its rights under the License, provided all Royalties survive and are paid.

 

22.Force Majeure

 

22.1.Each party shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that fulfillment of such obligations shall be prevented by strikes, embargoes, riots, fires, floods, war, terror attacks, hurricanes, windstorms, acts or defaults of common carriers, governmental laws, acts or regulations, contamination, shortages of materials or any other occurrence, whether or not similar to the foregoing, that is beyond the reasonable control of the party whose performance is affected thereby.

 

22.2.If any party is prevented from fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement by reason of a circumstance covered by this Section 22, such party shall, upon the occurrence of any such circumstance, promptly notify the other party of such circumstance and of the likely duration thereof, use its reasonable commercial efforts to alleviate each circumstance and promptly continue performance hereunder upon the cessation of such circumstance.

 

23.Confidentiality

 

23.1.Each of the parties shall retain in strict confidence all Confidential Information heretofore or hereafter obtained from the other party pursuant to, or in connection with, this Agreement. Neither party shall disclose any Confidential Information of the other to any person, firm or corporation nor use any such Confidential Information for any purpose not contemplated by this Agreement.

 

"Confidential Information" means, in this Section 23, any and all information or materials maintained or transferred in oral, written, pictorial, magnetic, graphic or in any other media , which have been previously disclosed or may hereafter be disclosed by one of the parties (in this Section 23, the "Disclosing Party") to the other (in this Section 23, the "Recipient"), relating to the financial, technological and business information, products, services and/or operations of the Disclosing Party, including, but not limited to, business plans, agreements, trade secrets, know-how, patents, formulae, data, source code, object code, product plans, product specifications, technical information, customer lists, and all other information of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether or not contained or incorporated in drawings, photographs, memoranda, operational documents, models, prototypes, designs, quality control and test charts, lists, manuals and methods, whether or not labeled as confidential or proprietary, and including, without limitation, all copies, excerpts, modifications, translations, enhancements and adaptations of all the foregoing, whether made by the Recipient or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, Confidential Information shall be deemed to include information and data exchanged between the parties prior to the Effective Date, including, without limitation, under the Memorandum of Understanding dated as of January 15, 2006, as amended, and other preceding agreements between the parties.

 

35
 

 

23.2.Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties may disclose Confidential Information of the other:

 

23.2.1.to its, or its Affiliates', directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors, to the extent, if any, required for the performance of their duties in connection with this Agreement, provided each such person is individually and personally obligated to comply with confidentiality undertakings no less stringent than the provisions of this Section 23 and that the Recipient shall remain liable to the Disclosing Party for any breaches thereof committed by its Affiliates, or its Affiliates', directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors;

 

23.2.2.to the extent necessary to obtain regulatory approvals of any Competent Regulatory Authority under this Agreement;

 

23.2.3.to the extent required by law, regulation or judicial order, provided that prior to disclosure pursuant to this clause the Recipient gives to the Disclosing Party prompt notice of such required disclosure and fully cooperates with the Disclosing Party's efforts to obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy; and provided further that any such disclosure shall be in writing, shall, to the extent possible, be designated confidential at the time of disclosure, and shall be held by the recipient in accordance with the provisions of this Section 23.

 

23.3.The obligations of nondisclosure and nonuse pursuant to this Section 23 shall not apply to any party with respect to any Confidential Information of the other party that such party can establish by written record:

 

23.3.1.was known to such party prior to the disclosure thereof by the other party, as can be demonstrated by written records of the Recipient; or

 

23.3.2.was in the public domain prior to the disclosure thereof to such party or subsequently entered the public domain by some means other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by such party; or

 

23.3.3.was subsequently disclosed to such party by a third party having a lawful right to make the disclosure.

 

23.4.Due to the unique confidential, proprietary and valuable nature of the Confidential Information, the parties acknowledge and agree that in the event that either party fails to comply with its obligations hereunder, monetary damages may be inadequate to compensate the Disclosing Party. Accordingly, the parties agree that the Disclosing Party shall, in addition to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity, be entitled to seek injunctive relief to enforce the terms of this Section 23.

 

23.5.The terms and conditions of this Section 23 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement, for any reason whatsoever.

 

36
 

 

24.Sale of Business

 

In the event Kamada sells or transfers, directly or indirectly, all of its rights in the Drug Product to a third party, excluding Affiliates of Kamada (the “Third Party Purchaser”) during the Term but after the Phase I Clinical Trials (excluding any sublicense to the Drug Product and/or Kamada's IP, subject to Section 3.3 of this Agreement) (a "Sale of Business Transaction"), Kamada shall pay to PARI, either directly or through such Third Party Purchaser (at Kamada’s sole discretion), a lump sum payment equal to [*****] of the total sale price attributed to the Drug Product related business plus [*****] of any future royalties received by Kamada in connection with sales of the Drug Product within the framework of such transaction, within the minimum and maximum total amounts (of both the lump sum payment and royalties, in aggregate), subject to the timing of such transaction, as indicated below in the table. The Third Party Purchaser may deduct any such amounts paid to PARI from future Royalties payments to PARI, whether such payments were made by Kamada or by such Third Party Purchaser.

 

Should a dispute arise between the parties as to the total sale price and/or the portion of the total sale price that should be attributed to the Drug Product, such dispute shall be resolved by an agreed on third party assessor selected jointly by the parties without delay. The fee and other expenses paid with respect to the work of such assessor shall be equally borne by the parties.

After [*****]  

Minimum [****] (not to exceed, at any given time, [*****] of the aggregate amount actually received by Kamada by such time for the Drug Product related business)

 

Maximum [*****]

 

* If the amount is not paid in full to PARI at the time of the consummation of the transfer between Kamada and the Third Party Purchaser, because of the threshold restrictions set forth above, Kamada shall promptly pay to PARI the difference upon receipt of additional payments from the Third Party Purchaser.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is clarified that PARI's entitlement to the foregoing compensation shall be conditioned on: (i) at least one of PARI's Essential Patents is valid in the United States of America, Germany and any of France or Italy; (ii) there is no legal and/or regulatory prevention from marketing and/or selling the Device embodying PARI’s Essential Patents in the United States of America, Germany and any of France or Italy; and (iii) PARI's fulfillment of its obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, timely supply of the Device and all related parts and accessories set forth in the Supply Agreement). If any of the foregoing conditions ceases to be fulfilled following such transaction, PARI shall not be entitled to payment out of the royalties incurred from that time onward until the condition is fulfilled again.

 

Change of control in Kamada shall be deemed a Sale of Business Transaction for the purpose of this Section 24 only in the event that the control is acquired by a Third Party Purchaser in a private allocation against an investment in Kamada (i.e. not in any of the following events: (1) in the course of trade in any stock exchange in which Kamada's shares are, or shall be, traded, or (2) within the framework of a public offering of Kamada's securities, or (3) as a result of sale or transfer of shares by one or more, but not all, existing shareholders in Kamada).

 

If the Third Party Purchaser wishes to continue the collaboration with PARI under this Agreement, it shall undertake in writing to PARI to fulfill all of Kamada’s undertakings under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligations to diligently pursue clinical development of the Drug Product using the Device (the form of which undertaking is set forth in Appendix I attached hereto). If no such form of undertaking is executed by such Third Party Purchaser at the time of consummation and closing of such Sale of Business Transaction, this Agreement and the Supply Agreement shall be automatically terminated.

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

For the purpose of this Section 24, a corporation or other entity shall be deemed to control another corporation if it owns, directly or indirectly, more than 50% (fifty percent) of the voting shares, or has the power to elect more than half the directors, of such other corporation.

 

25.Governing Law; Arbitration

 

25.1.This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, USA without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions therein.

 

25.2.In the event of any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, or alleged breach of this Agreement (the "Dispute"), prior to instituting any arbitration on account of such Dispute, the parties shall attempt in good faith to settle such Dispute first by negotiation and consultation between themselves, including referral of such Dispute to the top executives of Kamada and the top executives of PARI. In the event said executives are unable to resolve such Dispute or agree upon a mechanism to resolve such Dispute within [*****] of the first written request for dispute resolution under this Section 25.2, then the parties shall resolve all such Disputes in accordance with Section 25.3.

 

25.3.If any Dispute has not been resolved by good faith negotiations between the parties pursuant to Section 25.2 above, then the parties shall endeavor to settle the Dispute by submitting the matter to binding arbitration in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules. The arbitral tribunal shall be composed of three arbitrators whereby each party shall appoint one arbitrator and the arbitrators so appointed shall appoint the third, subject to recourse to the UNCITRAL rules for such appointments if they are not made within the time limits specified therein. The arbitration will be held in New-York City, USA. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. As part of their award, the arbitrators will assess all costs of the arbitration, including without limitation, legal fees and other expenses of the prevailing party, against the losing party. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed as preventing either party from seeking injunctive relief (or any other provisional remedy) from any court having jurisdiction over the parties and the subject matter of the Dispute as necessary to protect either party’s name, proprietary information, trade secrets, Know-How or any other proprietary right. If the Dispute involves scientific or technical matters, any arbitrator chosen hereunder shall have educational training and/or experience sufficient to demonstrate a reasonable level of knowledge in the field of respiratory disorders. The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be written, final and non-appealable, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

To the License Agreement of November 16, 2006 (the "Agreement")

 

between

 

PARI Pharma GMBH ("PARI")

 

and

 

Kamada Ltd ("Kamada")

 

This Addendum No. 1 to the Agreement (this “Addendum”) is made and entered into as of February 21, 2008 (the "Effective Date") by and between PARI PHARMA GMBH, a German corporation, with a principal place of business at Moosstrasse 3, 82319 Starnberg, Germany ("PARI"), and Kamada Ltd.), an Israeli company with principle offices at 7 Sapir St., Kiryat Weizmann Science Park, Ness-Ziona – ISRAEL ( “Kamada”).

 

Whereas, Kamada and PARI collaborate in the development of aerosolized use of Kamada's Alpha-1 Antitrypsin drug (AAT, also known as Alpha-1 Proteinase Inhibitor or API) (the "Drug Product") for AAT replacement therapy and treatment of exacerbation caused by AAT deficiency, using PARI's e-Flow based inhalation device, according to a license agreement of November 16, 2006 (the "Agreement"); and

 

Whereas, the parties wish to extend the said collaboration to two additional indications, namely Cystic Fibrosis and Bronchiectasis (the "Additional Indications");

 

Therefore, it is agreed as follows:

 

1.Unless otherwise expressly stated herein, all capitalized terms used in this Addendum shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

 

2.The parties shall jointly conduct the clinical development of the Drug Product for use with the Device for the Additional Indications (the "Additional Development"). The allocation of responsibilities between the parties shall be as set forth in the Agreement with respect to the First Two Indications (i.e. – Kamada shall be responsible for the performance of, and supply of the Drug Product for, the clinical trials; PARI shall be responsible for the adjustment of the Device (including, without limitation, for aerosol characterization studies involving the use of the Device as may be required by any Competent Regulatory Authority for the registration of any Product for the Additional Indications), supply of Devices for the Additional Development and technical and regulatory support). For the avoidance of any doubt, it is clarified that the License granted to Kamada pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Agreement, as well as PARI's obligations in Section 3.2 (subject to Section 3.4) of the Agreement, shall apply also to the Additional Indications.

 

 
 

 

3.Unless explicitly agreed herein, the terms and conditions of Sections 4.6-4.11 and 5 of the Agreement related to the Project and/or the Budget, except the terms of Section 4.9 relating to the identity of the Project Directors and their replacement procedure, shall not apply to the Additional Indications. Except if otherwise set forth in this Addendum, all other terms and provisions of the Agreement applying to the First Two Indications shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the Additional Indications too.

 

4.Each party shall bear all costs and responsibility related to any modification(s) to its own product (i.e. Kamada – the Drug Product; PARI- the Device), which might be required during the Additional Development. Subject to the foregoing, Kamada shall bear all other out-of-pocket expenses related to the Additional Indications.

 

5.PARI shall provide Kamada, at PARI's own cost and expense, with Devices (including, without limitation, the Cleaning Method and/or any accessory based on the Cleaning Method, all upon mutual agreement of the parties), replacement parts and regulatory, R&D and other technical support, as shall reasonably be requested by Kamada and/or any permitted sublicensee thereof for the successful completion of the clinical trials (Phase I, Phase II, Phase III and, if required by a Competent Regulatory Authority, Phase IV) and registration (including any renewals of registration) of any Product for the Additional Indications with any Competent Regulatory Authority, including, without limitation, training of Kamada’s or Kamada’s permitted sublicensee’s sub-contractor’s designated personnel in using the Device during the Product’s clinical trials (phases I, II, III and, if required by a Competent Regulatory Authority, IV), which training shall be reasonable and coordinated in advance with PARI.

The parties estimate that the cumulative quantity of the Device (including the Cleaning Method and/or any accessory based on the Cleaning Method, all upon mutual agreement of the parties) that shall be required for the clinical trials of Products for the Additional Indications is [*****] (of both the Device and the Cleaning Method and/or any accessory based on the Cleaning Method, all upon mutual agreement of the parties) + replacement parts as necessary. This is in addition to the number of Devices that may be required for the clinical development of the Drug Product for the First Two Indications. The foregoing is a non-binding estimation and the parties may, from time to time, discuss and mutually agree on extending the quantity of clinical trial supplies, if needed, to such quantities and timelines as actually required according to the clinical trial plan, including in the event that additional trials are required by any Competent Regulatory Authority.

 

6.Kamada shall provide, at its own cost and expense, the Drug Product for the Additional Development.

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

7.During the Royalties Period, PARI shall also provide Kamada and Kamada's sublicensees with post-registration regulatory and technical support with respect to any and all Product(s) registered for the Additional Indications, as may be reasonably requested by Kamada or such sublicensee with respect to the marketing, distribution and sale of such Product(s), worldwide.

 

8.As consideration for the extension of the collaboration under the Agreement to the Additional Indications and for the fulfillment of PARI's obligations in connection with the Additional Indications and the Additional Development as indicated above, Kamada shall pay to PARI during the Royalties Period, on a country-by-country basis, Royalties out of Net Sales of the Drug Product for the Additional Indications, according to Section 11.1 of the Agreement. For the purpose of calculating the royalty rate under Section 11.1 of the Agreement, the Net Sales of the Drug Product for all indications shall be aggregated.

 

9.Section 8.1 of the Agreement shall be amended to read as follows:
"Kamada shall, or shall direct any permitted Affiliate or any sublicensee of Kamada to, use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue the development, registration, marketing, distribution and sale of the Drug Product (i) for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin deficiency replacement therapy, in the event Kamada selects the same as the first indication included in the First Two Indications, or (ii) for (a) (1) treatment of exacerbations caused by Alpha-1 deficiency and/or (2) Cystic Fibrosis and/or (3) Bronchiectasis and (b) in the event that Kamada does not select Alpha-1 Antitrypsin deficiency replacement therapy as the first indication included in the First Two Indications, Alpha-1 Antitrypsin deficiency replacement therapy, in each case for use with the Device in any country in which Kamada decides to register, market and sell any Drug Product. Notwithstanding option (ii) above, if the annual Net Sales of the Drug Product for treatment of exacerbations caused by Alpha-1 deficiency, Cystic Fibrosis, Bronchiectasis and off-label use, combined, have actually exceeded [*****] in any given year for any of the foregoing indications (i.e. treatment of exacerbations caused by Alpha-1 deficiency, Cystic Fibrosis or Bronchiectasis), then from the beginning of the following year Kamada shall not be obliged to pursue the development, registration, marketing, distribution and sale of the Drug Product for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin deficiency replacement therapy or any additional indication(s) not included in such Annual Net Sales."

 

10.Section 21.5.2 of the Agreement shall be amended by deleting the words “June [*****] and inserting instead the words “March [*****]”.

 

11.In light of the execution of the Commercialization Agreement entered between the parties simultaneously with this Addendum (the "Commercialization Agreement"), it is agreed to add a new sub-section 21.6A to the Agreement, as follows:
"This Agreement shall be automatically terminated upon the termination of the Commercialization Agreement by Kamada pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2.2(iii) of the Commercialization Agreement".

 

12.All other terms and conditions of the Agreement, which are not expressly amended hereby, shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

Should Kamada decide not to complete the BLA submission process, for any reason whatsoever, other than (a) a negative Clinical Trial outcome, which negative outcome arises solely as a consequence of Kedrion’s failure to follow the approved Protocols for the Clinical Trials, or (b) the Parties’ mutual agreement that a negative Clinical Trial outcome has occurred without either Party’s direct fault, or (c) major regulatory changes in FDA guidelines that pose considerable difficulties on BLA submission, then Kamada shall reimburse Kedrion upon demand, subject to Kedrion’s providing Kamada with applicable documentation to support its reimbursement demands, for all of the third party out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Kedrion from the execution of this Agreement and related to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, up to a maximum amount of [*****], provided, however, that Kedrion is not in material default in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, it being understood and agreed that once Kedrion cures such material default, Kamada shall be required to make the reimbursement contemplated herein. If Kamada fails to maintain the Biologics License, except if such failure arises directly from (a) a breach by Kedrion in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement beyond any applicable notice and cure period, or (b) failure to achieve the expected results in the Clinical Trials due to Kedrion’s default (e.g. Kedrion’s failure to follow the approved Protocol(s)), and further provided that Kedrion has provided Kamada all reasonable assistance required by Kamada in connection with such purpose, or (c) the Parties’ mutual agreement that the Biologics License should no longer be maintained, then Kamada shall reimburse Kedrion on demand for all of Kedrion’s third party out-of-pocket expenses incurred from the execution of this Agreement and related to the performance of Kedrion’s obligations under this Agreement, up to a maximum amount of [*****], provided, however, Kedrion is not in material default in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, it being understood and agreed that once Kedrion cures such material default, Kamada shall be required to make the reimbursement contemplated herein, unless Kamada did not maintain the Biologics License solely as a consequence of such uncured default by Kedrion, in which case, Kamada shall not be required to make such reimbursement. In the event of a dispute concerning whether Kedrion or Kamada is responsible for a negative Clinical Trial outcome (or that a negative Clinical Trial outcome has occurred without either Party’s direct fault), the matter shall be resolved further to the provisions of Article 19, however, the arbitrators shall have the additional right/remedy of apportioning between the Parties the responsibility for the negative Clinical Trials outcome. Notwithstanding the above, the Parties agree that there may be certain instances where a negative Clinical Trial outcome may occur without either Party’s direct fault.

Kamada reserves the right to cancel, suspend, refuse, or delay fulfillment of any pending purchase orders if (x) Kedrion fails to make payment when due as required in Section 6.6 below, or (y) otherwise fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement beyond any applicable notice and cure period, or (z) ABS is unable to provide sufficient Plasma, which complies with the Plasma specifications, on a timely basis, to meet applicable purchase orders under the terms of the Plasma Supply Agreements, unless such inability arises from (i) an event of force majeur; or (ii) default by Kamada in the performance of its obligations under the Plasma Supply Agreements. Kedrion reserves the right to suspend and refuse any pending payment if Kamada fails to deliver the agreed quantities of the Product further to binding purchase orders for which payments are due, in which case Kedrion may suspend payment only for the shortfall, or if Kamada otherwise is in material breach of this Agreement beyond any applicable notice and cure period specified under Section 13.2(b) below, in which case Kedrion may suspend all payments hereunder until Kamada cures such breach.

5.9.Acceptance/Rejection.

 

5.9.1.Kedrion shall visually inspect each shipment of the Product for external damage or loss in transit and notify Kamada of any such damage or loss within a commercially reasonable period of time following discovery, not to exceed [*****] after delivery. Should any Product delivered by Kamada to Kedrion be received in damaged condition that is ascertainable upon visual inspection, except if Kedrion is responsible for such damage, Kedrion shall (i) note on the delivery slip the apparent damage, (ii) provide the cold change record to Kamada, (iii) request that Kamada, at Kamada’s own cost, accept prompt return of such Product and replace it with undamaged Product; and (iv) not be responsible for payment for the damaged Product. Damage noted on a delivery slip, and any other latent damage caused during shipment that becomes apparent thereafter, shall be reported promptly to Kamada’s customer service department to determine the disposition instructions further to Section 5.9.2 below. Kedrion shall hold such damaged Product for inspection by the insurer, the carrier, or Kamada’s designated representative for up to [*****] business days after notifying Kamada of the damage. If Kamada is unable to remedy or replace the defective Product, it shall so notify Kedrion, and Kamada shall promptly reverse the invoices for the defective Product or, if payment for the defective Product has been made by Kedrion, credit to Kedrion the amount paid by Kedrion to Kamada for such defective Product, if any, or if this Agreement has expired or been terminated, reimburse Kedrion. Kamada shall not be responsible for Product that is damaged, altered, lost or otherwise tampered with, after receipt by Kedrion.

 

5.9.2.Should Kedrion reject any defective Product pursuant to Section 5.9.1 because the Product fails to comply with the Manufacturing Specifications and should Kamada, after good faith negotiation, fail to agree that such rejection was justified, the Parties shall jointly appoint an independent qualified third party to test samples of the units of the Product at issue and to review any pertinent records and information developed by either Party relating thereto in order to ascertain the validity of the rejection. If the Parties are unable to agree on the independent qualified third party, the matter shall be submitted to arbitration further to Section 19 hereof. The findings of such third party or arbitration panel shall be final and binding upon both Parties. If the Product is found to meet the Manufacturing Specifications in all material respects, Kedrion shall pay the costs of such tests and shall be deemed to have accepted the Product as of the date such findings are furnished and if more than [*****] days have expired since delivery, payment of the Purchase Price for the Product shall be made immediately by Kedrion. If the Product is found not to meet Manufacturing Specifications in any material respect, Kamada shall pay the costs of such tests and shall promptly replace the defective Product or credit Kedrion’s account, at Kamada's sole discretion, or if this Agreement has expired or been terminated, reimburse Kedrion. The obligations of Kamada under this Section 5.9.2 shall not apply to the extent that the independent qualified third party determines the Product has been subject to storage, use or other conditions caused by Kedrion or any third party on its behalf, not in accordance with the applicable Handling Specifications, or has otherwise been the subject of mishandling, misuse, neglect, alteration, or damage by Kedrion or any third party on its behalf, in which event, Kedrion shall be deemed to have accepted such Product as of the date of delivery by Kamada and if more than [*****] have expired since the delivery of the Product, payment of the Purchase Price shall be made immediately by Kedrion.

5.9.3.Kedrion shall remove and review the temperature records for each shipment of Product to ensure that cold chain requirements were met. In the event that there was a deviation from the temperature limits (as defined in the shipping validation study and attached specification sheet) or the Handling Specifications, Kedrion should notify Kamada in writing as soon as possible (not more than [*****]) of any deviations from the shipping temperature limits. Kedrion shall hold the shipment under quarantine until instructions are received from Kamada as to the disposition of the shipment.

 

5.9.4.Any defective Product shall, with Kamada's prior written authorization, either be destroyed or be returned to Kamada, or any third party designated by Kamada. Prior to returning any Product, Kedrion must first obtain a Return Materials Authorization (“RMA”) number from Kamada. Should the Product prove defective prior to receipt by Kedrion, Kamada will remedy or replace, at its discretion, the defective Product when it is returned to Kamada. Kamada shall invoice Kedrion for replacement Product and payment for such replacement Product shall be made under the terms specified herein.

 

5.10.Shelf Life. To the greatest extent commercially practicable, and in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.8.2 above, Kamada agrees to deliver Product to Kedrion with the then longest shelf life available to Kamada, but nothing contained herein shall require Kedrion to accept delivery of Product with less than [*****] shelf life, stored in accordance with the applicable Handling Specifications, unless specifically agreed upon by the Parties.

5.13.2.In the event that Kedrion orders Product units equal to, or greater than, the Minimum Amount (as defined below) during any Fiscal Year occuring during the Minimum Order Period (as defined below), and, if applicable, during the Extended Term and Kamada fails to deliver Product units equal to the Minimum Amount for such Fiscal Year (a “Supply Shortfall”) then, assuming (a) that Kedrion is not in material breach of its obligations hereunder and fails to cure such breach within sixty [*****] following receipt of a written notice of such default from Kamada or (b) ABS is not in default in the performance of its obligations under the Plasma Supply Agreements and has failed to cure such breach within [*****] days following receipt by ABS of a written notice in that respect from Kamada and with respect to a failure to supply sufficient Plasma to Kamada (i) Kamada has been unable, despite commercially reasonable efforts, to acquire Plasma on the spot market; and (ii) Kedrion or ABS has not reimbursed Kamada for the excess cost of such spot market purchases (it being understood and agreed that unless Kedrion or ABS timely cured any such defaults described above, Kamada’s failure to supply the Minimum Amount shall not be regarded as Kamada’s default to comply with its Minimum Amount requirements), as Kedrion’s sole and entire remedy, Kamada shall have the discretion to either (x) supply to Kedrion in the following Fiscal Year upon the terms set forth herein and at the Purchase Price applicable to the Product for the fiscal year within which the Supply Shortfall occurred, an amount of the Product equal to the difference between the Minimum Amount and the amount of the Product actually delivered by Kamada (it being understood and agreed that such supply shall not change the obligation of Kamada to supply Product equal to the Minimum Amount for such following Fiscal Year) or (y) paying to Kedrion, within [*****] after the expiration of the Fiscal Year in which the Supply Shortfall occurred, an amount equal to the amount obtained by multiplying the difference between the number of Product units actually supplied by Kamada for such Fiscal Year and the number of Product units representing the Minimum Amount for such Shortfall Year, by fifty percent (50%) of the Purchase Price of the Product at the end of the Fiscal Year during which the Supply Shortfall occurred. Failure by Kamada to cure a Supply Shortfall in accordance with the above provisions within one Fiscal Year of the end of the Fiscal Year in which the Supply Shortfall occurred, shall be considered as breach of this Agreement by Kamada, and Kedrion may, but shall not be required to, terminate this Agreement. Upon Kedrion’s termination of this Agreement, based on failure by Kamada to timely cure a Supply Shortfall as provided above, Kamada shall pay to Kedrion, [*****], an amount equal to [*****], up to a maximum amount of [*****]. If the Supply Shortfall occurs in the last Fiscal Year during the Minimum Order Period and, if applicable, during the last year of the Extended Term, the sole remedy of Kedrion shall be as set forth in clause (y) of this Section 5.13.2. The provisions of this Section 5.13.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

5.14.Minimum Orders.

 

5.14.1.During the [*****] Fiscal Year period (the “Minimum Order Period”) beginning [*****] business days from the date that Kamada notifies Kedrion that Kamada has printed FDA approved packaging on a batch approved by CBER and is able to ship the Product, Kedrion shall be obligated to order from Kamada for each Fiscal Year during the Minimum Order Period, an amount of the Product which represent at least [*****] (the “Market Share”) of the US anti-rabies immunoglobulin market (the “Market”) for such Fiscal Year (the “Minimum Amount”). Should Kedrion exercise its option to extend the original Term, as provided further to the provisions of Section 13.1, then the Market Share for the first Fiscal Year of the Extended Term, shall be changed to [*****] and for the second Fiscal Year of the Extended Term, shall be changed to [*****] and the Minimum Amount for each such Fiscal Year shall be calculated using the foregoing Market Share. It is understood and agreed that during, or prior to, each Fiscal Year, Kamada shall place purchase orders for Plasma with ABS in such amounts as may be required to produce Product units representing not less than the applicable Market Share for such Fiscal Year. The Market Share shall be determined by reference to the publications of the Market Research Bureau (“MRB”) or such other independent third party acceptable to both Parties. If the MRB no longer publishes data regarding the Market, the Parties shall select another independent party for such purpose and if they are unable to agree in writing, as to the person or entity to replace MRB within [*****] days following first raising the subject, the determination will be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 19 hereof.

5.14.2.Should Kedrion, during any given Fiscal Year occurring during the Minimum Order Period and, if applicable, during the Extended Term, fail to order an amount of Product which is equal to or exceeds the Minimum Amount for such Fiscal Year (an Order Shortfall”), then Kedrion shall be allowed to cure such Order Shortfall by either (a) ordering from Kamada, in the following Fiscal Year, an amount of the Product equal to the Order Shortfall (it being understood and agreed that such order shall not change the obligation of Kedrion to order the Minimum Amount for such following Fiscal Year), subject to Kamada’s commercially reasonable efforts to manufacture units of the Product in excess of the Minimum Amount for such following Fiscal Year (it being understood and agreed that the manufacture of Product units to meet the Order Shortfall shall take reasonable priority over the manufacture of the Product units for customers outside of the Territory), or (b) paying to Kamada within [*****] after the expiration of the Fiscal Year in which the Order Shortfall occurred (a Shortfall Year”), [*****]. If Kedrion fails to cure an Order Shortfall in accordance with the above provisions within one Fiscal Year of the expiration of the Shortfall Year during which such Order Shortfall occurs, then Kedrion shall (x) lose the exclusivity rights granted to it under Section 3.1 above and (y) immediately transfer, and be deemed to have transferred the Clinical Results and all rights related thereto to Kamada provided, however, that Kamada is not in material breach of its obligations hereunder and has failed to cure such breach within [*****] following receipt of a written notice from Kamada. Without derogating from the foregoing, If Kedrion fails to meet the Minimum Amount in any Fiscal Year and does not make up for the Order Shortfall during the subsequent Fiscal Year as provided above, such failure shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement by Kedrion and will allow Kamada to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.2. The Minimum Amount shall be adjusted on a pro-rata basis to compensate for any suspension of the Biologics License. Notwithstanding the minimum order provisions of this Section 5.14, Kamada shall use commercially reasonable efforts to meet Kedrion requirements for the Product in excess of the Minimum Amount. If the Order Shortfall occurs during the last Fiscal Year of the Term, the sole remedy of Kamada shall be as set forth in clauses (b), (x) and (y) of this Section 5.14.2. The provisions of this Section 5.14.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

5.15.If Kedrion fails to order Products equal to, or in excess of, the Minimum Amount during any Fiscal Year during the Minimum Order Period (or, if applicable, the Extended Term), then, subject to Kedrion’s right to cure under Sections 5.14.2, Kamada will not be obliged to meet its Minimum Amount obligations hereunder or reimburse Kedrion for all of its third party out-of-pocket expenses in accordance with the provision in Section 3.2.1 above, should Kamada decide not to maintain the Biologics License solely as a consequence of such failure.

Exhibit 10.18

 

 

 

FRACTION IV-1 PASTE SUPPLY AGREEMENT

 

This Fraction IV-1 Paste Supply Agreement is entered into, and effective as of this 3rd day of December, 2012 (“Effective Date”), by and between Baxter Healthcare S.A., a Swiss entity, having a place of business at Postfach, 8010 Zurich, Switzerland (“Baxter”) and Kamada Ltd., having a place of business at 7 Sapir St. Kiryat Weizmann, Ness-Ziona 74036, Israel (“Kamada”).

 

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, Kamada wishes to purchase filter-aid derived Fraction IV-I Paste (“Product”) from Baxter for further manufacturing of Alpha 1 Antitrypsin and/or human Transferrin derived from the Product for clinical and commercial purposes; and

 

WHEREAS, Baxter desires to sell available Product to Kamada for further manufacturing of Alpha 1 Antitrypsin and/or human Transferrin derived from the Product for clinical and commercial purposes upon the following conditions;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

 

TERMS

 

1.          Purpose. Baxter will supply and Kamada will purchase Product that meets the requirements of the Certificate of Analysis for Fr. IV-1 specified under Exhibit A, the form thereof will be attached to the Quality Agreement (as defined below) (the "Certificate of Analysis"), and that fits for further process for human use in accordance with EMA regulations and guidelines. Kamada further agrees that the Product will not be used for any other purpose than that stated above nor sold to any third party for any reason.

 

The parties shall enter, within [*****] following execution of this Agreement, into a quality agreement which shall be attached as Exhibit D hereto and incorporated herein by way of reference (the “Quality Agreement”).

 

2.          Orders and Supply. During the term of this Agreement Baxter shall make available to Kamada, yearly quantity of Products according to the table in Exhibit B (the "Basic Amount"). Upon agreement with Kamada Baxter may adjust the “Basic Amount” in Exhibit B annually by end of September.

  

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Page 1
 

 

Kamada shall provide Baxter in writing, on a [*****] basis, a non-binding forecast of Kamada’s expected requirements for delivery of Products (including then current packaging requirements), for each month in the following [*****] period (the "Forecast").

Kamada shall deliver binding purchase orders from time to time by written or electronic purchase orders (or by any other means agreed to by the parties) to Baxter, at least [*****] to the desired date of delivery (the "Binding Forecast"). Baxter shall either: (i) acknowledge and accept or (ii) reject any purchase order in writing within [*****] of receipt, provided that Baxter shall not reject any purchase order below the agreed monthly amount of [*****] of the Basic Amount as described in Exhibit B. If this minimum amount cannot be reached due to foreseeable reasons such as shutdowns, maintenance or supply reasons, Baxter will inform Kamada about not meeting a specific order quantity as soon as the information is available and shall make its best efforts to provide Kamada with the shortage, as soon as possible. All Products ordered by Kamada under this Agreement shall be delivered on or, subject to prior coordination between the parties, before the delivery date set forth in the applicable purchase order.

 

If Baxter does not provide an acknowledgement to Kamada within [*****] of its receipt of a purchase order, and the aggregate quantities set forth in the purchase orders for delivery in the applicable month do not exceed, in the aggregate, the Basic Amount (unless Baxter has otherwise affirmatively agreed in writing to meet the excess quantities ordered), Baxter shall be deemed to have accepted each purchase order from Kamada.

 

3.          Payment. The price and payment terms that Kamada and Baxter have agreed upon are listed in Exhibit B. Kamada shall pay a late fee of [*****] for any invoices paid beyond [*****] of Baxter’s invoice date. Any shipment of Product composed and invoiced by Baxter and accepted by Kamada shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (except to the extent otherwise explicitly agreed to in writing). Any use of the Product shall be in accordance with this Agreement and the label of the Product. There are no expressed or implied warranties, including any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose accompanying the sale of this Product, except with respect to the compliance of the Product to the Certificate of Analysis. Neither party shall be liable for any, incidental or consequential damages arising from or in connection with this Agreement or from the use of the Product by Kamada and shall only be liable for direct damages to the extent that such damages are attributable to the negligence or wrongful conduct of such party.

 

4.          Warning Notice. Kamada specifically acknowledges that when products prepared from human blood or plasma (including the Product) are administered, the potential for the transmission of infectious agents (such as viruses or other infectious particles, and including infectious agents that may not have been discovered or characterized at this time) cannot be totally eliminated, despite stringent controls applied in the selection of blood and plasma donors and prescribed manufacturing standards used at blood and plasma collection centers, testing laboratories and fractionation facilities. Kamada agrees that any claims resulting from or alleging such transmission of infectious agents, are intended to be covered by the indemnification provisions of Article 9.

5.          Recall. If, in Baxter’s sole discretion, or as a consequence of regulatory requirements, Baxter decides to undertake a recall of certain lots of the Product or other fractions processed from the same plasma units as the Product, due to the derivation of the fractions being from the same plasma sourcing or associated with a specific plasma donor whose plasma was used in the manufacture of the Product, Baxter shall notify Kamada of such recall and Kamada shall make the determination of whether or not to initiate a recall of its own products manufactured with the Product from its own customers. If Kamada initiates a withdrawal or recall for any of the reasons specified above or upon proof that the Product used in the manufacture of Kamada’s product caused safety of quality problems in Kamada's product, then Baxter shall reimburse or provide Kamada with the cost of the Product used by Kamada in the production of Kamada’s products or provide equivalent replacement Product. [*****]

 

6.          Change Control. Any changes to the Certificate of Analysis will require Kamada’s prior written approval, in accordance with an approval mechanism to be agreed upon under the Quality Agreement. Such approval mechanism will set reasonable and customary notice time frames which will enable Kamada to make all the required arrangements for such change.

 

7.          Acceptance/Rejection.     Kamada shall have a period of [*****] from date of its receipt of a shipment of the Product and accompanying documentation at Kamada’s Israel plant to inspect and reject all or part of the corresponding shipment of the Product for nonconformity with the Certificate of Analysis, that has not been manufactured, processed, stored, tested, transported internally, disposed of or otherwise handled in accordance with applicable SOPs, cGMPs and/or the Regulations, as such terms are defined in Exhibit B hereto, and in accordance with the Quality Agreement. If Kamada rejects all or part of such shipment, it shall promptly notify Baxter and the provisions of this Article 8 shall apply. In the event that Kamada rejects all or part of any shipment of the Product as above said, Baxter will, at no cost to Kamada, and within [******] replace such nonconforming Product with an equivalent amount of conforming Product depending upon availability of Product. Kamada shall provide Baxter with a proof of destruction notice for all Product rejected by Kamada before any replacement conforming Product is made available to Kamada, depending upon the availability of such replacement product.

 

Latent Defects. If, after accepting a shipment of the Product, Kamada discovers latent defects that do not conform to the Certificate of Analysis and that are not reasonably discoverable during the [*****] days acceptance period set forth above, Kamada may revoke its acceptance of such shipment of the Product by giving written notice and disclosing the nature of any defects to Baxter as soon as practicable after discovering such defects. In such event, Baxter will conduct further testing to confirm specification nonconformance on the Product. Should Baxter’s test results confirm specification nonconformance, then the Product delivered in such shipment shall be considered a nonconforming Product, and the provisions set forth in this Article 8 shall apply.

 

 

[*****] Confidential portions of this document have been redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

8.          Term and Termination. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall remain in full force and effect until December 31, 2021 (the “Initial Term”), unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms herein. The Initial Term may be renewed for two consecutive two (2) year periods (each an “Additional Term”) upon mutual agreement of both parties by giving written notice to the other party at least [*****] in advance of the expiration of the Initial Term or any Additional Term. Either party may terminate the Agreement for any reason with twelve (12) months prior written notice to the other party, provided that as a condition to such termination by Baxter, Baxter shall be obligated to provide Kamada, upon Kamada's request, with Products at the amount equivalent to the previous year's total amount of Products sold to Kamada in addition to the Products to be sold during the last year of the Agreement; such Products, to be sold and delivered under the terms of this Agreement. In the event that either party materially breaches the Agreement, the breaching party upon [*****] days prior written notice shall make a good faith attempt to cure the breach. If the breaching party fails to cure the breach during the [*****] day cure period, the non-breaching party may terminate the Agreement. Articles 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 14 and 16 shall survive termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall also be terminated in accordance with the provisions of Article 13 below (Revocation of Product License). Upon termination for any reason, all Products ordered under any purchase orders issued by Kamada prior to such termination shall be supplied to Kamada.

 

9.         Indemnification. Kamada shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Baxter, its successors, assignees, affiliates, directors, officers, agents and employees (collectively referred to in this Article 9 as “Baxter”), from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) actually borne by Baxter as the result of claims, demands, costs or judgments which have been made or instituted against any of them by third parties arising out of Kamada’s purchase, possession, packaging, distribution, use, testing, sale or other disposition of products which were manufactured with the Product, and whether or not resulting from the actual or alleged acts or omissions of Baxter. This indemnity shall not apply, however, to the extent any such liabilities, losses, damages or expenses are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Baxter.

 

Baxter shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Kamada, its successors, assignees, affiliates, directors, officers, agents and employees (collectively referred to in this Article 9 as “Kamada”), from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) actually borne by Kamada as the result of claims, demands, costs or judgments that may arise out of Baxter’s breach of its warranties under this Agreement or the Quality Agreement or from its negligence or willful misconduct.

The indemnifying party under this Section 9 (the “Indemnifier”) shall have the right to control the defense of any action which is to be indemnified by it hereunder, including the right to select counsel reasonably acceptable to the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) to defend the Indemnitee, and to settle any claim. The Indemnifier will not enter into any settlement that would admit any fault of the Indemnitee or place any blame on the Indemnitee’s products without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee. The provisions of Articles 3, 5 and 9 shall survive and remain in full force and effect after any termination, expiration or cancellation of this Agreement and Kamada’s obligation hereunder shall apply whether or not such claims are rightfully brought.

 

The Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Indemnifier of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect of which the Indemnitee intends to claim indemnification under this Article 9, and the Indemnifier shall assume the defense thereof at the Indemnifier’s expense. The Indemnitee shall fully cooperate with the Indemnifier and its legal representatives in the investigation and defense (including settlement negotiations) of any matter that is the subject of indemnification. The Indemnitee may elect to be represented by additional counsel of its choosing at its own expense. Both parties shall cooperate fully with each other in the investigation of any action, claim or liability covered by this indemnification.

 

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES FOR ANY SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS OR LOST REVENUES.

 

10.         Insurance: Kamada shall, to the extent permitted by law, secure and maintain in full force and effect during the term of any clinical trial conducted with Kamada’s product manufactured from the Product and for a period of [*****] following termination of any and all such clinical trials, a Clinical Trials Liability insurance policy in an amount of at least [*****] per occurrence and [*****] in aggregate per annum. A Certificate of Insurance evidencing the appropriate Clinical Trials Liability insurance coverage shall be made available to Baxter within [*****] following Baxter’s request. Upon Kamada’s initial commercial distribution of a final product manufactured by Kamada from the Product supply, Kamada shall, to the extent permitted by law, acquire a Product Liability insurance policy with a coverage limit of [*****] per occurrence and in aggregate per annum. Kamada shall maintain such policy in full force and effect throughout the performance of this Agreement and for a period of [*****] following termination of this Agreement. A Certificate of Insurance evidencing the appropriate Product Liability insurance coverage shall be made available to Baxter within [*****] following Baxter’s request. Baxter shall, to the extent permitted by law, secure and maintain in full force and effect throughout the performance of the Agreement and for a period of [*****] following termination of this Agreement, General Liability Coverage, either by way of an insurance policy and/or self insurance program, in an amount appropriate to assume the risk and provide sufficient coverage for the Product.

11.         Use of Names. Neither party shall use the name of the other party or the names of that party’s officers, affiliates, agents or employees in any commercial or noncommercial advertising, article, press release, or any other form of writing without the prior written permission of the party whose name is to be used. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) Kamada may disclose the name of Baxter as the manufacturer and supplier of the Product, to the extent required for the transportation and/or importation of such Product to Kamada’s facilities in Israel, and/or as shall be required by any competent regulatory authority, and/or in connection with any due diligence checks by any third party who is bound by customary non-disclosure requirements; and (ii) neither party will be prevented from complying with any duty of disclosure it may have pursuant to applicable laws (including without limitation applicable securities laws or stock exchange regulations), provided however, that such party shall first inform the other party of such request or legal requirement for disclosure.

 

12.         Force Majeure. Should Baxter be precluded from supplying all or part of the Product provided for in this Agreement temporarily, indefinitely, or permanently due to acts of God or new legislation such as, riots, strikes, war, act of terror, natural disasters, shortage of plasma due to industry constraints or should Kamada be precluded from further manufacture using all or part of the Product provided for in this Agreement temporarily, indefinitely, or permanently due to acts of God or new legislation such as, riots, strikes, war, act of terror, and natural disasters, then this Agreement shall be suspended to the extent necessary and for the time necessary to allow for the remedy of the situation causing the disruption of sale or use of the Product, provided that the delay in performance shall not exceed [*****] for any reason unless the parties agree in writing to a longer period. If any of the above acts occurs, the affected party will immediately notify the other party by fully disclosing the problem, the date the problem occurred, and the date that production can restart. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that a force majeure event does not relieve any party from fulfilling its obligations under sections 2, 4, 5, 7 and 8 of the Agreement. If such circumstances of force majeure continue beyond 3 months (or a longer period agreed on in writing by the parties), the non affected may terminate this Agreement immediately by a written notice to the affected party.

 

13.         Revocation of Product License.
