(ii)the right to Manufacture or have Manufactured Licensed Products anywhere in the world for Development and Commercialization in the Field in the Genfit Territory; and

(iii)the right to practice and license the Genfit Technology and Genfit Licensed Trademarks outside the scope of the license granted to Ipsen under Section (a), provided that in no event shall Genfit Develop or Commercialize the Licensed Compound or any Licensed Products in the Ipsen Territory whether within or outside the Field. [***].

2.2Genfit Partners in the Genfit Territory.

(a)Genfit has the right to enter into one or more agreements with Third Parties and grant such Third Parties the right, and has entered into the Terns Agreement with Terns and granted Terns the right, to Develop, Manufacture and/or Commercialize Licensed Products in one or more countries in the Genfit Territory (Terns or any other Third Party which would fall into this Section shall be referred to as “Genfit Partner(s)”); provided that (a) Genfit shall remain solely responsible for any Genfit Partner’s activities, (b) the grant of such rights to such Genfit Partner shall not affect Genfit’s obligations under the Agreement, (c) Genfit Partners (including Terns) shall be required to promptly provide to Genfit any Product Materials generated by or on behalf of Genfit Partners, and (d) Genfit Partners, shall consent in writing to the provision of such Product Materials by Genfit to Ipsen as set forth in Section 4.7.

(b)So long as Ipsen is not actively developing, manufacturing or commercializing a Competing Product or any product containing the Licensed Compound in the Genfit Territory, (i) Genfit shall disclose to Ipsen all Information solely regarding Licensed Products (which, for clarity, shall exclude any Information relating to any combination including one or more Licensed Products), including all Regulatory Materials relating thereto, disclosed by Terns to Genfit under the Terns Agreement or by another Genfit Partner, for use by Ipsen in its Development, Manufacture and Commercialization of Licensed Products in the Ipsen Territory; provided, however, that (A) all such Information disclosed to Ipsen by Genfit shall be deemed the Confidential Information of Genfit, and (B) Ipsen shall be obligated to abide by restrictions on disclosure as set forth in Section 12.1.

2.5Exclusive Right of First Negotiation and Opt-in Right.

(a)Ipsen’s Right of First Negotiation. In consideration of the payments to be paid by Ipsen to Genfit pursuant to Sections 8.1 and 8.2, Genfit hereby grants to Ipsen a right of first negotiation (the “ROFN”) with respect to:

(i)any and all Genfit Additional Products during the Term;

(ii)any and all programs or products other than the Genfit Additional Products that: (x) are Controlled by Genfit or its Affiliates as of the Effective Date and are in Development, Manufacture or Commercialization by Genfit or (y) become Controlled by Genfit or its Affiliates during the Term (“Other Product”) for the period starting from the Effective Date and until:

(A)the [***] of the Effective Date for any Other Product in any indication other than the PBC Indication;

(B)the expiry of the Term for any Other Product in the PBC Indication;

((i) and (ii), collectively, the “ROFN Term”).

To perfect its obligation under this Section 2.5, in the case of programs or products that fall under sub-sections (ii)(x) and (y) which are licensed to Genfit from any Third Party, Genfit

Execution Version

shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the right to sublicense such other programs or products.

If, at any time during the ROFN Term, Genfit decides to enter into any collaboration with a Third Party with respect to any Genfit Product Opportunity, whether through license, assignment, joint venture or otherwise, Genfit shall promptly provide Ipsen with written notice requesting whether Ipsen wishes to enter into such collaboration, together with any material data generated by, or on behalf of, Genfit with respect to such Genfit Product Opportunity as would be reasonably useful for Ipsen to determine its interest in such Genfit Product Opportunity for all or part of the Ipsen Territory or the Genfit Territory (the “ROFN Offer Notice”). Within [***] following Ipsen’s receipt of such ROFN Offer Notice (the “ROFN Exercise Period”), Ipsen may exercise its ROFN by providing Genfit with written notice of its intent thereto (the “ROFN Exercise Notice”). Upon Genfit’s receipt of such ROFN Exercise Notice, Ipsen shall have the right to exclusively negotiate in good faith with Genfit for a period of [***] from date of the ROFN Exercise Notice, or within a time-period as may be extended by written agreement of the Parties, (the “ROFN Negotiation Period”) the terms of a license for such Genfit Product Opportunity. If (A) Ipsen does not provide Genfit with a ROFN Exercise Notice within the ROFN Exercise Period, or if (B) Ipsen provides Genfit with a ROFN Exercise Notice within the ROFN Exercise Period but the Parties fail to reach a definitive agreement on the terms of a license with respect to such Genfit Product Opportunity during the ROFN Negotiation Period, the ROFN will expire and Ipsen shall have no further rights with respect to such Genfit Product Opportunity; provided that, in the case of clause (B) above, Genfit shall not enter into a definitive agreement with a Third Party with respect to such Genfit Product Opportunity on terms that are more favorable to such Third Party than those offered to Ipsen during such ROFN Negotiation Period. For clarity, except for any ROFN that has expired pursuant to the terms and conditions above, Ipsen shall retain its ROFN with respect to any other Genfit Product Opportunity in the Ipsen Territory. For further clarity, if Genfit seeks to enter into a collaboration with a Third Party with respect to any Genfit Product Opportunity for an Other Product that is not then in development in the PBC Indication after the [***] of the Effective Date, Genfit will have the right to collaborate with such Third Party, whether through license, assignment, joint venture or otherwise, in any and all indications (including the PBC Indication) without any obligation to provide Ipsen a ROFN Offer Notice.

(b)Ipsen’s Exclusive Opt-in Right in the Genfit Territory. In the event the entirety, or portion of, the Genfit Territory that is licensed to Terns as of the Effective Date becomes available and Genfit decides to grant an exclusive license to Develop, Manufacture and/or Commercialize the Licensed Products in any or all of the countries of the Genfit Territory to a Third Party, Ipsen shall have the exclusive right (but not the obligation) to exercise an exclusive option to have any such countries of the Genfit Territory be included into the Ipsen Territory as set forth in this subsection at its sole discretion (“Opt-in Right”). Once any such country becomes available, Genfit shall promptly provide Ipsen with a written notice informing Ipsen of such availability and inquiring whether Ipsen wishes to include any such country into the Ipsen Territory, together with any data generated by, or on behalf of, Terns as would be reasonably useful for Ipsen to determine its interest in such country. Ipsen shall exercise its Opt-in Right by notifying Genfit of its decision within [***] from receipt of Genfit’s written notice. Upon Genfit’s receipt of Ipsen’s decision to exercise its Opt-in Right, any such country or countries of the Genfit Territory shall become part of the Ipsen Territory. [***].

In addition to the initial transfer set forth in subsection (a) above, the Parties shall work together in good faith to develop a transition services agreement, within [***] of the Effective Date, pursuant to which Genfit shall, in each case as may be required by Ipsen to enable Ipsen to prepare for the ELATIVE Part B Study and file the NDA (including the Accelerated Approval), agree to make available to Ipsen, under terms and conditions, including financial remuneration to Genfit for such services, to be negotiated in good faith and set forth in such transition agreement, those of Genfit’s employees who have knowledge and expertise in connection with Developing, or obtaining Regulatory Approval for the Licensed Product.

(b)Royalty Term. Royalties payable under Section 8.5(a) shall be paid by Ipsen (on a country-by-country basis) from the period beginning on the date of the First Commercial Sale of the Licensed Product in a given country in the Ipsen Territory and

Execution Version

continuing until the later of: (i) ten (10) years from the date of First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country, and (ii) expiration of the last Valid Claim of a Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent or Joint Patent Covering such Licensed Product in such country (the “Royalty Term”). For clarity, if a Valid Claim of a Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent or Joint Patent Covers the Manufacture of such Licensed Product in such country, then regardless of whether such Licensed Product is actually Manufactured in such country, such Licensed Product shall be deemed to be Covered by a Valid Claim of a Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in such country.

(c)Royalty Reduction for No Valid Claim. Starting from the first Calendar Quarter that a Licensed Product is not Covered by a Valid Claim of a Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in a country where such Licensed Product is sold, the applicable royalty rate set forth in Section 8.5(a) with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country shall be reduced by [***].

(d)Generic Entry. If, on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product, Calendar Quarter-by-Calendar Quarter, and country-by-country basis, there is a sale of one or more Generic Products with respect to a Licensed Product in a country in a Calendar Quarter and the aggregate units of such Licensed Product sold in that country during that Calendar Quarter following introduction of such Generic Products have fallen by at least:

(i)[***] in that country as compared to the average quarterly total aggregate units of such Licensed Products sold in such country during the last [***] full Calendar Quarters immediately prior to the Calendar Quarter in which such Generic Products were first introduced, then the Royalty Payments due to Genfit pursuant to Section 8.5 for such Licensed Product in such country will be reduced by [***] in such Calendar Quarter; or

(ii)[***] in that country as compared to the average quarterly total aggregate units of such Licensed Products sold in such country during the last [***] full Calendar Quarters immediately prior to the Calendar Quarter in which such Generic Products were first introduced, then the Royalty Payments due to Genfit pursuant to Section 8.5 for such Licensed Product in such country will be reduced by [***] in such Calendar Quarter.

(e)Third Party Licenses.

(i)Blocking Third Party Rights. If, during the Term, Ipsen or Genfit identifies any Blocking Third Party Rights (including any Blocking Third Party API Rights), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party. In such instance, the Parties shall cooperate and shall mutually agree upon an appropriate course of action. In the absence of agreement, the matter will be referred to the JSC.

(A)If the Parties agree to take administrative or legal action against such Blocking Third Party Rights, then Genfit will have the first right to lead the action. Genfit will keep Ipsen reasonably informed regarding such action and will provide Ipsen with reasonable opportunity to review and comment on draft filings in connection with such action and will consider in good faith Ipsen’s requests and suggestions. Costs for such administrative or legal action shall be shared [***] by Genfit and [***] by Ipsen for Blocking Third Party API Rights, and [***] by Genfit and [***] by Ipsen for any other Blocking Third Party Rights.

(B)If the Parties agree to obtain rights to any Blocking Third Party Rights (including any Blocking Third Party API Rights), Genfit will have the first right to acquire rights to any such Blocking Third Party Rights from such Third Party (whether by acquisition or license) and if Genfit intends to acquire such rights, then Genfit

Execution Version

will notify Ipsen of such intention within [***] of receipt of Ipsen’s written request to obtain rights. If Genfit so acquires such rights, then such Blocking Third Party Rights will be included in the Genfit Licensed Know-How or Genfit Licensed Patents, as applicable and, subject to any available offset pursuant to Section 8.5(e)(ii) (Offset for Third Party Payments) or Section 8.5(e)(iii) (Blocking Third Party API Rights), Ipsen will be solely responsible for all payments owed to such Third Party in consideration for the acquisition of rights to such Blocking Third Party Rights (whether by acquisition or license) or the practice thereunder by or on behalf of Ipsen. If Genfit fails to so notify Ipsen (or notifies Ipsen of its intention not to so acquire such rights) within such [***] period or otherwise fails within [***] after the date of Ipsen’s written request to acquire rights under such Blocking Third Party Rights, then Ipsen will have the right to acquire rights under such Blocking Third Party Rights from such Third Party. If thereafter Ipsen so acquires such rights, then such Know-How or Patent rights will be included in the Ipsen Licensed Know-How or Ipsen Licensed Patent Rights, as applicable and, subject to any available offset pursuant to Section 8.5(e)(ii) (Offset for Third Party Payments) or Section 8.5(e)(iii) (Blocking Third Party API Rights), Ipsen will be solely responsible for all payments owed to such Third Party in consideration for the acquisition of rights to such Blocking Third Party Rights (whether by acquisition or license) or the practice thereunder by or on behalf of Ipsen. Except with Ipsen’s prior written consent, Genfit will not obtain a license to Blocking Third Party Rights for use in the Ipsen Territory, unless it obtains the right to sublicense such rights to Ipsen.

(ii)Offset for Third Party Payments. If Genfit or Ipsen obtains a license or other rights under Blocking Third Party Rights (other than Blocking Third Party API Rights) in accordance with Section 8.5(e)(i)(B), then Ipsen may offset against the Royalty Payments due to Genfit for the exploitation of the Licensed Products covered by such license or rights an amount equal to [***] of the royalties paid to such Third Party under such agreement, subject to Section 8.5(f).

(iii)Blocking Third Party API Rights. If Genfit or Ipsen obtains a license or other rights under Blocking Third Party API Rights in accordance with Section 8.5(e)(i)(B), then Ipsen may offset against the Royalty Payments and/or Commercial Milestone Payments due to Genfit for the exploitation of the Licensed Products covered by such license or rights an amount equal to [***] of the royalties or any other cash consideration such as upfront payments or license annuities paid to such Third Party under such agreement, subject to Section 8.5(f).

(f)Anti-Stacking. On a country-by-country basis, the maximum amount of royalty reductions for the Licensed Products permitted under Section 8.5(c) (Royalty Reduction for No Valid Claim), Section 8.5(d) (Generic Entry), Section 8.5(e)(ii) (Offset for Third Party Payments) and Section 8.5(e)(iii) (Blocking Third Party API Rights)), alone or together, shall not reduce the Royalty Payments due to Genfit for the Licensed Products pursuant to Section 8.5(a) (Royalty Rates) in a country in a given Calendar Quarter as follows:

(A)by more than [***] of the applicable Royalty Payments that would otherwise be owed on the Net Sales of such Licensed Products in the event there are no payments for Blocking Third Party API Rights; and

(B)by more than [***] of the applicable Royalty Payments that would otherwise be owed on the Net Sales of such Licensed Products in the event there are payments for Blocking Third Party API Rights.

In the event that the provisions of this Section 8.5(f) prohibit Ipsen from fully deducting the amounts permitted under Section 8.5(e)(ii) (Offset for Third Party Payments) or Section

Execution Version

8.5(e)(iii) (Blocking Third Party API Rights), then Ipsen shall have the right to carry forward such excess amount for use to offset Royalties payable to Genfit in subsequent Calendar Quarters to the extent not previously credited against Royalty Payments and against Royalty Payments and/or Commercial Milestone Payment in the event there is any cash consideration other than royalties such as upfront payments or license annuities that are paid by Ipsen to the Third Party to obtain a license or other rights under the Blocking Third Party API Rights.

8.6Royalty Payments; Reports. Royalties under Section 8.5 shall be calculated and reported for each Calendar Quarter during the Royalty Term and shall be paid within [***] after the end of the applicable Calendar Quarter, commencing with the Calendar Quarter in which the First Commercial Sale of a Licensed Product occurs. Each payment of royalties shall be accompanied by a report of Net Sales of Licensed Products by Ipsen, its Affiliates and their respective Sublicensees in sufficient detail to permit confirmation of the accuracy of the royalty payment made, including: (a) the amount of gross sales and Net Sales of Licensed Products in the Ipsen Territory on a country-by-country basis, (b) an itemized calculation showing the deductions from gross sales (by major category as set forth in the definition of Net Sales) to determine Net Sales, and (c) a calculation of the amount of royalties due to Genfit in Euros (€), including the application of any exchange rate used.

8.7Payment Method; Foreign Exchange. All payments owed by Ipsen under this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a bank and account designated in writing by Genfit. For clarity, all payments by Ipsen to Genfit pursuant to Sections 8.1, 8.3 and 8.3 shall be in Euros (€) and all payments by Ipsen to Genfit pursuant to Sections 8.4 and 8.5 stated in US$ shall be converted in Euros as set forth in this section. All payments by Genfit to Ipsen pursuant to this Agreement shall be in Euros (€). When conversion of payments from any foreign currency (e.g., such as US$) is required to be undertaken by Ipsen, the currency exchange rate to be used for conversion to the Euros will be the average exchange rate for the period of [***] prior to the payment becomes due, as published by the Wall Street Journal. For the calculation of the Net Sales in US$ for Commercial Milestone Events and Royalties, when Net Sales are made in a different currency than US$, the currency exchange rate to be used for conversion to US$ will be the average exchange rate for the period of [***] prior to the payment becomes due, as published by the Wall Street Journal to determine whether Commercial Milestone Events have been met and the appropriate royalty tiers.

8.8Interest on Late Payments. If Genfit does not receive payment of any sum due to it on or before the due date, interest shall thereafter accrue on the sum due to Genfit until the date of payment at the per annum rate of [***] or the maximum rate allowable by applicable Laws, whichever is lower, with such interest compounded [***].

8.9Records; Audits. Ipsen shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective Sublicensees to, maintain in accordance with Accounting Standards, reasonably complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to permit Genfit to confirm the accuracy of the calculation of royalty payments and the achievement of the milestone events. All payments and other relevant amounts under this Agreement shall be accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards. Upon reasonable prior written notice, in any event no less than [***]-prior written notice, such records shall be available for examination during regular business hours and in a manner that does not interfere with Ipsen’s business activities for a period of [***] from the end of the Fiscal Year to which they pertain, and not more often than once each Fiscal Year, by an independent certified public accountant selected by the auditing Party and reasonably acceptable to the audited Party (“Auditor”), for the sole purpose of verifying the accuracy of the financial reports related to Royalties furnished by Ipsen or the Out-of-Pocket Expenses furnished by Genfit under Section 4.3(a) of any payments made, or required to be made by the audited Party pursuant to this Agreement. Any such Auditor shall not

Execution Version

disclose the audited Party’s Confidential Information, except to the extent such disclosure is necessary to verify the accuracy of the financial reports furnished by Ipsen or the amount of payments due under this Agreement. Any amounts shown to be owed but unpaid shall be paid within [***] from the accountant’s report, plus interest (as set forth in Section 8.8) from the original due date. If an underpayment or overpayment of more than [***] of the total payments due hereunder for the applicable Fiscal Year is discovered, then the fees and expenses charged by the Auditor will be paid by the audited Party (or reimbursed to the auditing Party).

8.10Taxes.

(a)Taxes on Income. Except as set forth in this Section 8.10, each Party shall be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes imposed on its share of income arising directly or indirectly from the efforts of the Parties under this Agreement.

(b)Withholding Taxes. As applicable, either Party (a “Withholding Party”) may withhold from payments due to the other Party (a “Non-Withholding Party”) amounts for payment of any withholding tax that is required by Applicable Law to be paid to any taxing authority with respect to such payments, which will be remitted in accordance with Applicable Law. The Withholding Party will provide to the Non-Withholding Party all relevant documents and correspondence, and will also provide to the Non-Withholding Party any other cooperation or assistance on a reasonable basis as may be necessary to enable the Non-Withholding Party to claim exemption from such withholding taxes and to receive a refund of such withholding tax or claim a foreign tax credit. The Withholding Party will give proper evidence from time to time as to the payment of any such tax. The Parties will cooperate with each other in seeking deductions under any double taxation (if applicable) or other similar treaty or agreement from time to time in force. The Parties acknowledge that, as of the Effective Date, no withholding taxes are expected to be made on payments due under this Agreement.

(c)Tax Cooperation. Without limiting Section 8.10(b), the Parties agree to cooperate with one another and use reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate Tax Withholding or similar obligations in respect of payments made by Ipsen to Genfit under this Agreement (including pursuant to Sections 8.1, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.5). To the extent Ipsen is required to make any Tax Withholdings for any payment to Genfit, Ipsen shall pay the amounts of such taxes to the proper Governmental Authority in a timely manner and promptly transmit to Genfit an official tax certificate or other evidence of such withholding sufficient to enable Genfit to claim such payment of taxes from any applicable Government Authority. Genfit shall provide Ipsen any tax forms or other similar documentation that may be reasonably necessary in order for Ipsen not to make any Tax Withholdings or to make Tax Withholdings at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty, and shall update such forms and documentation from time to time as necessary to reflect changes in facts. Each Party shall provide the other with reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by applicable Laws, of Tax Withholdings, VAT or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing such withholding tax or VAT.

(d)VAT. All payments due to Genfit from Ipsen pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid exclusive of, and without reduction for, any value-added tax (including, for greater certainty, any goods and services tax, harmonized sales tax and any similar taxes) (“VAT”) (which, if applicable, shall be payable by Ipsen). Ipsen shall be responsible for the payment of all VAT applicable to the payments made by Ipsen to Genfit under this Agreement and shall file all applicable VAT tax returns. Genfit shall cooperate, to the extent reasonably required, with the filing of any such VAT tax returns. Ipsen shall

Execution Version

indemnify Genfit for any VAT imposed on Genfit with respect to the payments made to it by Ipsen under this Agreement and if Genfit directly pays any VAT, Ipsen shall promptly reimburse Genfit for such VAT including all reasonable related costs. If Genfit determines that it is required to report any such tax, Ipsen shall promptly provide Genfit with applicable receipts and other documentation necessary or appropriate for such report. For clarity, this Section 8.10(d) is not intended to limit Ipsen’s right to deduct VAT in determining Net Sales.

Any Invention generated, developed, conceived or reduced to practice (constructively or actually) jointly by or on behalf of Ipsen and Genfit, their Affiliates and respective Sublicensees, including their employees, agents and contractors (“Joint Inventions”) shall be jointly owned by the Parties, and, subject to the licenses set forth in this Agreement, each Party hereby consents that the other Party may freely practice, license, assign and otherwise Exploit its interest under such Joint Inventions without any duty to account to the other Party. Each Party shall disclose in writing to the other Party all Joint Inventions promptly following the generation, development, conception or reduction to practice thereof. For clarity, and as allowed by article L.613-32 in the French Code de la propriété intellectuelle, the Parties expressly agree to depart from the statutory default regime for patent co-ownership as provided under articles L.613-29 to L.613-31 of the French Code de la propriété intellectuelle and will negotiate in good-faith a co-ownership agreement to effectuate the intent of the Parties set forth in this Section 9.1.

9.2Patent Prosecution.

(a)Definition. For the purpose of this Article 9, “prosecution” of Patents shall include, without limitation, all communication and other interaction with any patent office or patent authority having jurisdiction over a Patent application throughout the world in connection with any pre-grant proceedings and post-grant proceeding, including opposition proceedings.

(b)Genfit Licensed Patents; Joint Patents. Except as set forth in Section 9.2(d), as between the Parties, Genfit shall have the first right to prepare, file, prosecute, defend and maintain or abandon the Genfit Licensed Patents in the Ipsen Territory. In addition, Genfit will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to prepare, file, prosecute, defend and maintain all Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents in the Ipsen Territory, with the understanding that Genfit does not represent or warrant that any patent will issue or be granted based on patent applications contained in the Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents. Except as set forth in Section 9.2(d), as between the Parties, Genfit shall have the first right to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain or abandon the Joint Patents on a worldwide basis. Genfit will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to prepare, file, prosecute, defend and maintain all Joint Patents in the Ipsen Territory. Genfit will utilize outside counsel reasonably acceptable to Ipsen and will keep Ipsen informed of all substantive steps with regard to the status of such filing prosecution and maintenance of the Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents and Joint Patents, including by providing Ipsen with (i) copies of all material correspondence and material communications sent to or received from any patent office or agency in the Ipsen Territory, (ii) a draft copy of all priority patent applications sufficiently in advance (and no less than [***] in advance) of filing to permit reasonable review and comment by Ipsen, and (iii) upon the request of Ipsen, a copy of applications as filed in the Ipsen Territory, together with notice of its filing date and serial number. During the Term, upon Ipsen’s request, Ipsen’s and Genfit’s patent counsel (and other personnel, as necessary) will meet, in-person or telephonically at a mutually agreeable time and location, to discuss the status and strategy regarding the filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents and Joint Patents. Before Genfit submits any material filing, including a new patent application in the Ipsen Territory, or substantive response to patent authorities in the Ipsen Territory with respect to the Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents and Joint Patents, Genfit will provide Ipsen with the opportunity to review and comment on such filing or response (no less than [***] in advance, to the extent reasonably practicable) and will consider in good faith Ipsen’s requests and suggestions in connection with the filing thereof. For clarity, Ipsen shall not have any rights pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Genfit Licensed Patents in the Genfit Territory (including any Step-In Rights relating thereto).

Execution Version

(c)Ipsen Patents. Except as set forth in Section 9.2(d), as between the Parties, Ipsen shall have the first right to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain or abandon the Ipsen Patents. Ipsen shall provide Genfit with a copy of the draft prepared for the filing of a Ipsen Patent, before the filing of such Ipsen Patent and will consider in good faith comments thereto provided by Genfit in connection with the filing thereof. Ipsen shall provide Genfit with regular updates on the prosecution of the Ipsen Patents in the Field in the Ipsen Territory and the Genfit Territory.

(d)Step-In Rights. Either Party may cease prosecution and/or maintenance of any Patent that such Party is responsible for prosecuting and maintaining pursuant to this Section 9.2 on a country-by-country basis by providing the other Party written notice reasonably in advance of such due date. If the responsible Party elects to cease prosecution or maintenance of the relevant Patent in a country, the other Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its sole discretion and cost, to continue prosecution or maintenance of such Patent and in such country (“Step-In Rights”); provided, that Ipsen’s right to continue prosecution or maintenance of Genfit Licensed Patents shall be limited to Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents and Joint Patents. If the other Party elects to continue prosecution or maintenance or elects to file additional applications following the responsible Party’s election to cease prosecution or maintenance pursuant to this Section 9.2(d), the responsible Party shall transfer the applicable patent files to such other Party or its designee and execute such documents and perform such acts at the other Party’s expense as may be reasonably necessary to allow the other Party to initiate or continue such filing, prosecution or maintenance at the other Party’s sole expense.

(e)Cooperation. Each Party shall provide the other Party with all reasonable assistance and cooperation in the patent prosecution efforts set forth in this Section 9.2, including providing any necessary powers of attorney and executing any other required documents or instruments for such prosecution.

9.3Patent Term Extensions in the Ipsen Territory. The JSC will discuss and recommend for which, if any, of the Patents within the Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents, Ipsen Patents and Joint Patents in the Ipsen Territory the Parties should seek patent term extensions. If after reasonable discussion and good faith consideration of each Party’s view on a particular matter before the JSC, the representatives of the Parties cannot reach an agreement as which Patents such extensions should be sought for, Ipsen shall have the final decision-making authority with respect to applying for any such patent term extension in the Ipsen Territory, and will act with reasonable promptness in light of the development stage of Licensed Products to apply for any such patent term extension, where it so elects; provided that, if Ipsen determines that an application for patent term extension of a Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent should be filed in the Ipsen Territory, then (i) Ipsen shall have the right, but not the obligation, to request Genfit to apply for such patent term extension at Ipsen’s sole discretion, and (ii) upon Genfit’s receipt of such request, Genfit shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to apply for such patent term extension. Each Party will cooperate fully with the other Party in making such filings or actions, for example and without limitation, making available all required regulatory Data and Information and executing any required authorizations to apply for such patent term extension. All expenses incurred in connection with activities of each Party with respect to the Patent(s) for which such Party seeks patent term extensions pursuant to this Section 9.3 shall be borne equally by the Parties.

9.4Patent Enforcement.

(a)Notification; Information Sharing. If either Party becomes aware of any existing or threatened infringement of any Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent, Ipsen

Execution Version

Patent or Joint Patent (“Infringement”), it shall promptly notify the other Party in writing to that effect and the Parties will consult with each other regarding any actions to be taken with respect to such Infringement. Each Party shall share with the other Party all Information available to it regarding such alleged Infringement, pursuant to a mutually agreeable “common interest agreement” executed by the Parties under which the Parties agree to their shared, mutual interest in the outcome of any suit or other action to enforce the Genfit Product Specific Licensed Patents, Ipsen Patent and Joint Patent against such Infringement.

(b)Enforcement Rights.

(i)Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents; Joint Patents.

(A)Ipsen shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to bring an appropriate suit or other action against any Person engaged in the Infringement of any Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in the Ipsen Territory, at Ipsen’s cost and expense. If Ipsen elects to commence a suit or other action to enforce the applicable Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent or Joint Patent against such Infringement in the Ipsen Territory, then Genfit shall have the right to join such enforcement action upon written notice to Ipsen, and the Parties shall share the cost and expense of such enforcement action equally. If Ipsen notifies Genfit in writing that it does not intend to commence a suit or other action to enforce the applicable Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent or Joint Patent against such Infringement or to take other action to secure the abatement of such Infringement, or fails to take any such action after a period of [***] following either Party’s receipt of the notice of Infringement pursuant to Section 9.4(a), then, to the extent that such Infringement is resulting from a Third Party’s use or sale of a product that competes with a Licensed Product in the Field in the Ipsen Territory, Genfit shall have the right, but not the obligation, after taking into reasonable consideration Ipsen’s reason for not initiating such enforcement action including any identified risks to the Licensed Patents, Joint Patents, or Licensed Products, to commence such a suit or take such action, at Genfit’s cost and expense; provided that, in the event the Person engaged in the Infringement of any Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in the Ipsen Territory is also engaged in such Infringement in the Genfit Territory, and Genfit has commenced a suit to secure the abatement of such Infringement in the Genfit Territory, then Genfit shall promptly notify Ipsen thereof and Ipsen shall not have the right to commence such suit or action without the prior written consent of Genfit. In such case, Genfit shall take appropriate actions in order to enable Ipsen to commence a suit or take the actions set forth in the preceding sentence.

(B)Neither Party shall settle any such suit or action under 9.4(b)(i)(A) in any manner that would negatively impact the Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents or Joint Patents or that would limit or restrict the ability of Ipsen to sell the Licensed Products in the Ipsen Territory, without the prior written consent of the other Party. For clarity, Ipsen shall not have the right to commence any such suit or action against any existing or threatened infringement of the Genfit Product-Specific Licensed Patents or Joint Patents outside the Ipsen Territory.

(ii)Ipsen Patents. Ipsen shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to bring an appropriate suit or other action against any Person engaged in the Infringement of any Ipsen Patent, at Ipsen’s cost and expense. If Ipsen elects to commence a suit to enforce the applicable Ipsen Patent against such Infringement, where such Infringement relates to the Commercialization in the Ipsen Territory of unauthorized products containing the Licensed Compound, then Genfit shall have the right to join such enforcement action upon notice to Ipsen, and in this case the Parties shall share the cost and expense of such enforcement action equally. If Ipsen notifies Genfit that it does not intend to commence a suit to enforce the applicable Ipsen Patent against such Infringement or to take other action

Execution Version

to secure the abatement of such Infringement, or fails to take any such action after a period of [***], then Genfit shall have the right, but not the obligation, after taking into reasonable consideration Ipsen’s reason for not initiating such enforcement action including any identified risks to the Ipsen Patents, Licensed Patents, Joint Patents, or Licensed Products, to commence such a suit or take such action, at Genfit’s cost and expense. In such case, Ipsen shall take appropriate actions in order to enable Genfit to commence a suit or take the actions set forth in the preceding sentence.

(c)Collaboration. Each Party shall provide to the Party bringing a claim, suit or action under Section 9.4(b) (the “Enforcing Party”) with reasonable assistance in such enforcement, including joining such action as a party plaintiff if required by applicable Laws to pursue such action. The Enforcing Party shall keep the other Party regularly informed of the status and progress of such enforcement efforts, and shall reasonably consider the other Party’s comments on any such efforts. The non-enforcing Party shall be entitled to separate representation in such matter by counsel of its own choice and at its own expense, but such Party shall at all times cooperate fully with the Enforcing Party.

(d)Expenses and Recoveries. The Enforcing Party shall be solely responsible for any expenses it incurs as a result of such enforcement action, except that the Parties shall share equally the cost and expense of the enforcement action when the other Party elects to join the enforcement action. If the Enforcing Party recovers monetary damages in such claim, suit or action brought under Section 9.4(b), such recovery shall be allocated first to the reimbursement of any documented expenses incurred by the Parties in such enforcement action, and any remaining amounts shall be shared by the Parties as follows:

(i)if Ipsen is the Enforcing Party under Section 9.4(b) and Genfit elects to join the enforcement action and share the cost and expenses related thereto: [***] of the remaining amounts shall be retained by Ipsen, and [***] of the remaining amounts shall be paid to Genfit;

(ii)if Ipsen is the Enforcing Party under Section 9.4(b) and Genfit does not elect to join the enforcement action and share the cost and expenses related thereto: [***] of the remaining amounts shall be retained by Ipsen, and [***] of the remaining amounts shall be paid to Genfit;

(iii)if Genfit is the Enforcing Party under Section 9.4(b): [***] of the remaining amounts shall be retained by Genfit, and [***] of the remaining amounts shall be paid to Ipsen.

(e)Sections 9.4(c) and 9.4(d) shall survive the termination of this Agreement solely with respect to any pending enforcement action initiated during the Term under this Section 9.4.

9.5Third Party Infringement Claims. If the Development, Manufacture, use or sale of the Licensed Products in the Field in the Ipsen Territory pursuant to this Agreement results in a claim, suit or proceeding alleging patent infringement against Genfit or Ipsen (or their respective Affiliates, licensees or Sublicensees) (collectively, “Infringement Actions”), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party hereto in writing. Subject to Article 11, the Party against which the Infringement Action is brought (the “Accused Party”) shall have the right to direct and control the defense of such Infringement Action, at its own expense with counsel of its choice; provided, however, that the other Party may participate in the defense and/or settlement thereof, at its own expense with counsel of its choice. In any event, the Accused Party agrees to keep the other Party reasonably informed of all material

Execution Version

developments in connection with any such Infringement Action for which the Accused Party exercises its right to direct and control the defense. The Accused Party agrees not to settle such Infringement Action, or make any admissions or assert any position in such Infringement Action, in a manner that would adversely affect the rights or interests of the other Party, without the prior written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Subject to Article 11, if the Accused Party does not exercise its right to direct and control the defense of an Infringement Action that also is brought against the Accused Party, then the other Party shall have such right and it shall agree to keep the Accused Party reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with such Infringement Action and it shall not settle such Infringement Action, or make any admissions or assert any position in such Infringement Action, in a manner that would materially adversely affect the rights or interests of the Accused Party, without the prior written consent of the Accused Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

9.6Trademarks.

(a)Subject to Section 9.6(c) below, Ipsen shall Commercialize the Licensed Products in the Field in the Ipsen Territory under a Genfit Licensed Trademark or any trademark owned or Controlled by Ipsen (the “Ipsen Product Mark”); provided that, prior to finalizing any Ipsen Product Mark, Ipsen shall provide Genfit with such proposed trademark and related trade dress and shall reasonably consider in good faith Genfit’s comments with respect thereto. Ipsen shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to, use the Ipsen Product Mark solely in connection with the Development, Manufacturing, and Commercialization of the Licensed Products in the Field in the Ipsen Territory. Ipsen shall own all rights in the Ipsen Product Mark, and all goodwill in the Ipsen Product Mark shall accrue to Ipsen. Ipsen shall register and maintain, at Ipsen’s cost and expense, the Ipsen Product Marks in the Ipsen Territory.

(b)Subject to Section 9.6(c) below, Ipsen shall have the right to brand the Licensed Products in the Field in the Ipsen Territory with those trademarks of Ipsen that are associated with Ipsen’s name or identity (“Ipsen Housemarks”). Ipsen shall own all rights in the Ipsen Housemarks, and all goodwill in the Ipsen Housemarks shall accrue to Ipsen.

(c)In connection with Ipsen’s use of any Ipsen Product Mark or Ipsen Housemark, subject to Section 9.6(d), Ipsen shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective Sublicensees to not: (i) make any use of trademarks that are confusingly similar to any trademarks or housemarks of Genfit or its Affiliates (including the corporate name of Genfit or any of its Affiliates), without the prior written consent of Genfit; or (ii) use any trademarks, other than the Ipsen Product Marks and the Ipsen Housemarks, in connection with the Commercialization of Licensed Products in the Field in the Ipsen Territory, without the prior written consent of Genfit.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the extent required by applicable Laws, (i) Ipsen may include Genfit’s name and corporate logo on the Licensed Product label, packaging, promotional/marketing materials to indicate that the Licensed Product is in-licensed from Genfit, and shall display Genfit’s name and corporate logo with equal prominence and comparable size, resolution, print quality, and location, as instructed by Genfit from time to time, as Ipsen’s name and corporate logo is displayed, and (ii) Genfit hereby grants to Ipsen a non-exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty free, sublicensable license to use Genfit’s name and corporate logo for the Commercialization of the Licensed Product in the Ipsen Territory, to the extent consistent with the foregoing. In addition to the foregoing sentence, each Party hereby grants to the other Party, a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, license (at no additional cost to the other Party), to use the other Party’s corporate name and logo, solely on corporate website, corporate or partnering presentations

Execution Version

in the event the licensee Party wishes to make reference to the licensor Party as its licensor or licensee related to this Agreement; provided that the licensee Party shall not use the licensor Party’s corporate name and logo in a manner that will diminish or otherwise damage the licensor Party’s goodwill, image and reputation.

(e)Genfit shall have the first right, at its sole cost, to register and maintain the Genfit Licensed Trademarks in the Ipsen Territory, utilizing outside counsel reasonably acceptable to Ipsen. Genfit shall keep Ipsen informed of material progress with regard to the registration, prosecution, maintenance and defense, if any, of the Genfit Licensed Trademarks in the Ipsen Territory, including content, timing and jurisdiction of filing, sufficiently in advance for Ipsen to be able to review any material documents, and Genfit shall consult with, and consider in good faith the requests and suggestions of, Ipsen with respect to strategies for filing, prosecuting and defending the Genfit Licensed Trademarks in the Ipsen Territory. Should Genfit elect not to continue the registration, prosecution, maintenance and defense of any Genfit Licensed Trademark in the Ipsen Territory, it will so notify Ipsen. Upon Ipsen’s request, Genfit shall assign such Genfit Licensed Trademark to Ipsen so that Ipsen can continue the registration, prosecution, maintenance and defense of such Genfit Licensed Trademark at its sole costs; provided, that Genfit shall assign such Genfit Licensed Trademark to Ipsen only when such Genfit Licensed Trademark is used in the Exploitation of a Licensed Product.

(f)Ipsen shall have the sole right, at its sole cost, to register, prosecute, maintain, and defend the Ipsen Product Marks.

11.1Indemnification by Genfit. Genfit shall defend, indemnify, and hold Ipsen and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (the “Ipsen Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, actually incurred expenses and costs, including reasonable legal expense and attorneys’ fees (“Losses”) to which any Ipsen Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any claim, demand, action or other proceeding by any Third Party (collectively, “Claims”) arising out of, based on, or resulting from (a) the Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of Licensed Products in the Ipsen Territory by or on behalf of Genfit or its Affiliates prior to the Effective Date, (b) the Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of Licensed Products in the Genfit Territory, (c) the breach of any of Genfit’s obligations under this Agreement, including Genfit’s representations, warranties or covenants set forth herein, (d) the conduct of any pharmacovigilance-related activities set forth in Section 5.8 by or on behalf of Genfit (except to the extent that such Claim arises from Ipsen’s provision of false, misleading, inaccurate or incomplete information to Genfit under Section 5.8 or Ipsen’s breach of its obligations under the Pharmacovigilance Agreement) or (e) the willful misconduct or negligent acts of any Genfit Indemnitee. The foregoing indemnity obligation shall not apply to the extent that (i) the Ipsen Indemnitees fail to comply with the indemnification procedures set forth in Section 11.3 and Genfit’s defense of the relevant Claim is materially prejudiced by such failure, or (ii) any Claim arises from, is based on, or results from any activity or occurrence for which Ipsen is obligated to indemnify the Genfit Indemnitees under Section 11.2.

11.2Indemnification by Ipsen. Ipsen shall defend, indemnify, and hold Genfit and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (the “Genfit Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all Losses to which any Genfit Indemnitee may become subject as a result of any Claims arising out of, based on, or resulting from (a) the Development, Manufacture, or Commercialization of Licensed Products by or on behalf of Ipsen or its Affiliates or Sublicensees on or after the Effective Date (except to the extent that any such activities are conducted by or on behalf of Genfit or its Affiliates) (including any Infringement Actions), (b) the breach of any of Ipsen’s obligations under this Agreement, including Ipsen’s representations, warranties, or covenants set forth herein and its covenants set forth in Section 10.6, or (c) the willful misconduct or negligent acts of any Ipsen Indemnitee. The foregoing indemnity obligation shall not apply to the extent that (i) the Genfit Indemnitees fail to comply with the indemnification procedures set forth in Section 11.3 and Ipsen’s defense of the relevant Claim is materially prejudiced by such failure, or (ii) any Claim arises from, is based on, or results from any activity or occurrence for which Genfit is obligated to indemnify the Ipsen Indemnitees under Section 11.1.

Execution Version

and shall offer control of the defense of such Claim to the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with reasonable assistance, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, in connection with the defense of the Claim for which indemnity is being sought. The Indemnified Party may participate in and monitor such defense with counsel of its own choosing at its sole expense; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume and conduct the defense of the Claim with counsel of its choice. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, unless the settlement involves only the payment of money. So long as the Indemnifying Party is actively defending the Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume and conduct the defense of the Claim as provided above, (a) the Indemnified Party may defend against, consent to the entry of any judgment, or enter into any settlement with respect to such Claim in any manner the Indemnified Party may deem reasonably appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), and (b) the Indemnifying Party shall remain responsible to indemnify the Indemnified Party as provided in this Article 11. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 11.3, the provisions of Section 9.5 shall govern the defense of any Infringement Actions. Additionally, in the event that Genfit has elected to defend any such Infringement Action, then Ipsen shall not be obligated to indemnify Genfit for any Claims related to such Infringement Action; rather, the Parties shall share equal responsibility for any Losses resulting therefrom.

11.4Limitation of Liability. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 11.4 IS INTENDED TO OR SHALL LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF ANY PARTY UNDER SECTION 11.1 or 11.2, OR DAMAGES AVAILABLE FOR A PARTY’S BREACH OF ITS EXCLUSIVITY OBLIGATIONS IN SECTION 2.7 OR ITS CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS IN ARTICLE 12.

11.5Insurance. Each Party shall procure and maintain during the Term at their own expense, insurance policies, including comprehensive general public and after Regulatory Approval, product liability insurance, adequate to cover each Party’s obligations hereunder and consistent with industry standards.

The product liability insurance will have a territoriality in line with Each Party’s territory and will remain in force until [***] after this Agreement. Each Party will also maintain Clinical Trial insurance in compliance with all Applicable Law pertaining to the jurisdictions in which such Clinical Trials are conducted. These insurance policies shall be obtained from reputable and financially secure insurance carriers having a minimum “A.M. Best rating (or equivalent) of A- VIII”. Each Party shall provide the other Party a certificate of insurance evidencing such insurance coverage upon request. It is understood that such insurance shall not be construed to create a limit of either Party’s liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Article 11.

For the avoidance of doubt, following the delivery of such written notice pursuant to this Section 13.2, Ipsen shall not be obligated to take any actions with respect to the Development of the Licensed Compound or a Licensed Product that would cause Genfit to be entitled to receive any Development Milestone payment under Section 8.3 that was not already due and payable prior to the delivery of such written notice.

Execution Version

(b)Ipsen may terminate this Agreement on a country-by-country basis and/or Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, upon prior written notice to Genfit if a Regulatory Authority in a country has ordered Ipsen to stop all sales of a Licensed Product in such country due to a safety concern.

13.3Termination by Genfit. Genfit may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Ipsen, if Ipsen ceases [***] (including through Sublicensees and contractors) for a period of [***], unless Development of Licensed Products was prevented throughout such period by a force majeure for which Ipsen provided notice pursuant to Section 15.2 prior to or at the start of such period and that persisted throughout such period despite Ipsen’s Commercially Reasonable Efforts to remove or mitigate it. Such termination shall go into effect on the date specified in the applicable termination notice. [***]. Additionally, Genfit may terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon [***]-prior written notice to Ipsen, if Ipsen or its Affiliates or their respective Sublicensees (directly or indirectly, individually or in association with any other Person) challenges the validity, enforceability or scope of:

•any Genfit Licensed Patents included in Exhibit A-1, as may be subsequently amended from time to time,

•any Genfit Licensed Patents included in Exhibit A-2 as of the Effective Date, or

•any Genfit Licensed Trademarks,

unless during such [***]-period the subject challenge is permanently dismissed or withdrawn and is not thereafter reinstituted or continued; provided that in the event a Sublicensee of Ipsen initiates such challenge, Genfit may not terminate this Agreement if (i) Ipsen successfully causes such Sublicensee to abort such challenge within such [***]-period, or (ii) Ipsen provides Genfit a written notice of its intent to terminate its sublicense with such Sublicensee within such [***]-period.

It is understood and acknowledged that during the pendency of such a dispute, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in effect and the Parties shall continue to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder. [***].

13.5Termination Due to Bankruptcy. Either Party may terminate this Agreement if, at any time, the other Party files in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any state, country or jurisdiction, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of that Party or of its assets, or if the other Party proposes a written agreement of composition or extension of its debts (accord de conciliation), or if the other Party is served with an involuntary petition against it, filed in any insolvency proceeding, and such petition is not dismissed within [***] after the filing thereof, or if the other Party proposes or becomes a Party to any dissolution or liquidation, or if the other Party makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors.

Execution Version

13.6Effect of Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement, the following shall apply (in addition to any other rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to such termination), provided that, in the event such termination is limited to a specific country or Licensed Product, then the following shall only apply to such country or Licensed Product:

In lieu of exercising the termination right under Section 13.4 (Termination by Ipsen for Breach), in the event of material breach by Genfit of its obligation under Section 4.2 [***], if such failure is not cured by Genfit within [***] of written notice by Ipsen, Ipsen shall have the right (but not the obligation) to [***].

(b)Wind-Down. Ipsen will (i) responsibly wind-down, in accordance with accepted pharmaceutical industry norms and ethical practices, any on-going Clinical Trials for which it has responsibility hereunder in which patient dosing has commenced or, (ii) unless if this Agreement is terminated by Ipsen pursuant to Sections 13.2(b), 13.4 or 13.5, at Genfit’s reasonable request, (A) transfer to Genfit of its designee such Clinical Trial to the extent permitted under applicable Laws and accepted pharmaceutical industry norms and ethical practices, or (B) if reasonably practicable and not adverse to patient safety, complete such Clinical Trials and Genfit shall reimburse Ipsen its reasonable, out-of-pocket costs associated therewith. For clarity, except as provided for above, Ipsen may transfer to Genfit or its designee or wind-down any ongoing Clinical Trials prior to the date of termination in accordance with accepted pharmaceutical industry norms and ethical practices and Ipsen will be responsible for any costs associated with such transfer or wind-down. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is terminated by Ipsen pursuant to Sections 13.4 or 13.5, then [***].

(c)Regulatory Materials; Data.

(i)Except if this Agreement is terminated by Ipsen pursuant to Sections 13.4 (i.e., termination by Ipsen due to Genfit’s breach) or 13.5 (i.e., termination due to bankruptcy), Ipsen shall (A) provide and assign to Genfit or its designee all Regulatory Materials, including Regulatory Approvals, for the Licensed Products to the extent possible under applicable Law in the Ipsen Territory, (B) promptly provide to Genfit all Data (to the extent not already provided to Genfit), including pharmacovigilance data, generated by or on behalf of Ipsen, (C) grant to Genfit a worldwide license (subject to the following sub-section (ii)) under the Ipsen Licensed Know-How or Ipsen Licensed Patent Rights with respect, and to the extent they pertain, to the Licensed Product for which the Agreement is terminated, as such License Product existed at the time of termination, which shall be negotiated in good faith between the Parties at the time of termination of the Agreement and (D) promptly return or destroy, at Genfit’s election, all Confidential Information of Genfit.

Execution Version

(ii)The worldwide license granted by Ipsen to Genfit under the preceding sub-section (i) shall be: (A) irrevocable, perpetual, fully-paid up and royalty-free in the event the Agreement is terminated by Genfit due to Ipsen’s breach pursuant to Sections 13.3 or 13.4 and (B) [***].

(d)Trademarks. Except if this Agreement is terminated by Ipsen pursuant to Sections 13.2(b), 13.4 or 13.5, upon Genfit’s written request, Ipsen shall grant to Genfit, effective as of the date of such request, an exclusive, transferable, fully paid-up, royalty free, sublicensable license to use Ipsen Product Marks in connection with the Commercialization of Licensed Products in the Ipsen Territory (and excluding, for clarity, any Ipsen Housemarks).

(e)Transition Assistance. Upon Genfit’s reasonable request, (i) Ipsen shall provide such assistance as may be reasonably necessary or useful for Genfit to continue the Development and Commercialization of Licensed Products in the Ipsen Territory, to the extent Ipsen or its Affiliate is then performing or having performed such activities, including upon the reasonable request of Genfit, assigning (to the extent Ipsen has rights to assign) or using Commercially Reasonable Efforts to amend as appropriate any agreements or arrangements Ipsen or its Affiliate have with any Third Party for the Development, distribution, sale or otherwise Commercialization of Licensed Products; and (ii) Ipsen shall provide Genfit with copies of any promotional and marketing materials generated by or on behalf of Ipsen with respect to Licensed Products prior to the effective date of termination. If this Agreement is terminated by Ipsen pursuant to Sections 13.2(b), 13.4 or 13.5, Genfit shall bear all costs arising out of any of the transition assistance activities set forth in clause (i) or (ii) performed by Ipsen for a period of no more than [***] after termination (and in any case not to exceed a total of [***] of working time.

(f)Inventory. In the event that this Agreement is terminated in its entirety, Genfit shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase any and all of the inventory of Licensed Products held by Ipsen or its Affiliates as of the date of termination, at a price equal to the transfer price paid by Ipsen to Genfit for such inventory. Ipsen shall also have the right to continue to sell such inventory for up to [***] after the effective date of termination of this Agreement so long as Ipsen pays to Genfit the royalties that are applicable to such subsequent sales in the applicable country in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

13.7Survival. Any expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not affect rights or obligations of the Parties under this Agreement that have accrued prior to the date of expiration or termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the following provisions shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement: Article 1 (Definitions, as applicable), Article 11 (Indemnification), Article 12 (Confidentiality), Article 14 (Dispute Resolution), and Article 15 (Miscellaneous), and Sections 2.5 (No Implied Licenses), 4.5 (Development Records), 8.7 (Payment Method; Foreign Exchange), 8.8 (Interest on Late Payments), 8.9 (Records; Audits), 8.10 (Taxes), 9.1 (Ownership; License Grants), 10.7 (No Other Representations or Warranties), 13.6 (Effects of Termination), 13.7 (Survival) and 13.8 (Termination Not Sole Remedy).
