ARTICLE  9.
NON-CONFORMING PRODUCT

            9.1       Notice of Non-Conformance.

                        9.1.1      In the event that Genentech, in good faith, reasonably determines through review of Batch Records and other Manufacturing Data provided by Wyeth and/or testing of the Product by Genentech that a Batch from a Qualification Run or Commercial Run is Non-Conforming Product, Genentech may reject such Batch on the grounds that such Product is Non-Conforming Product by giving written notice thereof to Wyeth [*] after samples of such Product are delivered to Genentech for testing in accordance with Section 5.6.

                        9.1.2      In the event that, after the Acceptance Date, Genentech determines, in good faith, that any Batch from a Qualification Run or Commercial Run is determined to have been Non-Conforming Product as of the Warranty Date, and the cause of such non-conformance as of the Warranty Date is not a Pre-existing Defect, Genentech may reject such Batch by giving prompt notice thereof to Wyeth, [*] after the Warranty Date for such Batch.

                        9.1.3      In the case of any rejection under Section 9.1.1 or 9.1.2 above, the notice of rejection shall state with particularity all of the reasons for such rejection and specify the manner in which such Product is alleged to be Non-Conforming Product and shall be accompanied by any test results or reports evidencing such non-conformity. Alternatively, rather than initially issuing a notice of rejection under Section 9.1.1 above, Genentech may give written notice to Wyeth within the time period set forth in Section 9.1.1 above of a Genentech decision to investigate whether a Batch is potentially non-conforming, which notice shall include, for Wyeth's review and comment, a written plan for investigating and resolving such potential non-conformance, which investigation shall be completed in accordance with the procedures established pursuant to the Quality Agreement. For the sake of clarity, Genentech shall not have the right to reject any Batch and require Wyeth to refund any Success Fee if such Non-Conforming Product is non-conforming due to any action or omission of Genentech or its employees or agents or Genentech's Designated Carrier after delivery of such Product to Genentech's Designated Carrier.

            9.2       No Wyeth Liability. After rejection of a Batch or Batches in accordance with Section 9.1.1 or 9.1.2, if it is determined by agreement of the members of the JQT (or in the absence of such agreement, by a mutually acceptable qualified independent Third Party whose fees shall be paid by the non-prevailing Party) that either (i) an alleged Batch (or Batches) of Non-Conforming Product was not in fact Non-Conforming Product as of the Warranty Date, or (ii) an alleged Batch (or Batches) of Non-Conforming Product was in fact Non-Conforming Product as of the Warranty Date and such non-conformity was not caused by Wyeth (or its agents) but by a Pre-existing Defect, then Wyeth shall have no liability to Genentech with respect thereto, and Genentech shall pay to Wyeth [*] after such determination the Conversion Fee and/or Success Fee (as applicable) for such Product, if not already paid.

Subject to Section 15.1.3(g) below, Wyeth shall retain ownership of Wyeth's interest in any Dual Use Improvements as to which Wyeth is a sole or joint inventor, and any intellectual property rights therein.

                                  (g)      Wyeth hereby grants to Genentech under its interest in any Dual Use Improvements and any intellectual property rights therein, the following license and option rights:

                                            (i)      an exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid (subject to Genentech's obligation to reimburse Wyeth for any payments Wyeth is required to make to any Third Party as a result of Wyeth granting such license to Genentech and Genentech's practice thereof) worldwide license to use such Dual Use Improvement solely for the manufacture of Herceptin or any anti HER-2 antibody that, under applicable United States laws and regulations, is substitutable for Herceptin as a generic product; and

                                            (ii)      an option to negotiate a nonexclusive, nontransferable license, on commercially reasonable terms and conditions, to use such Dual Use Improvement for the manufacture of proteins other than either Herceptin or any anti HER-2 antibody that under applicable United States laws and regulations is substitutable

 

- 41 -


 

for Herceptin as a generic product (the "Dual Use Improvement Option"). The Dual Use Improvement Option may be exercised by Genentech by providing written notice to Wyeth within sixty (60) days after Wyeth provides Genentech written notification of the existence of such Dual Use Improvement. In the event that Genentech notifies Wyeth of its desire to negotiate for such a license, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to arrive at commercially reasonable terms and conditions for such license for a period of one-hundred eighty (180) days. In the event that the Parties are unable to reach agreement on commercially reasonable terms by the end of such one hundred eighty (180) day period despite good faith efforts to do so, the matter shall be submitted to a Third Party expert in the field who is mutually acceptable to the Parties, which Third Party shall review the positions of both Parties and shall conclusively establish the final, binding commercially reasonable terms and conditions for such license by (i) applying standards consistent with comparable industry licenses that have been negotiated between independent parties conducting arms-length negotiations (i.e., without giving regard to Wyeth and Genentech's relationship under the Transaction Agreements) and (ii) not granting terms that would materially alter the terms of any Wyeth license of the Dual Use Improvement that has been granted to a Third Party prior to the commencement of negotiations between the Parties and that contains a "most favored nation" or comparable provision requiring adjustment of the terms of such Third Party license to match any more favorable terms later granted by Wyeth under a separate license of the Dual Use Improvement; provided, however, that the Parties shall have no obligation to submit the unresolved terms of a license to a Dual Use Improvement to such expert in the event that the Dual Use Improvement to be licensed was conceived and reduced to practice without use of or reference to the Genentech Confidential Information. The costs of such Third Party expert shall be paid for by Genentech. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as set forth in Section 15.1.3(g)(i) above, Wyeth shall have no obligation to grant to Genentech any license or other right, title or interest in or to any Dual Use Improvement to the extent doing so would be prohibited by any agreement in existence between Wyeth and any Third Party at the time such Dual Use Improvement is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the Effective Date, Wyeth shall not knowingly enter into any agreement with a Third Party that would materially diminish Genentech's rights to take a license to a Dual Use Improvement under a Dual Use Improvement Option.

                                  (h)       Subject to Sections 14.2 and 14.3, Wyeth shall have no obligation to assign or otherwise grant to Genentech any right, title or interest in or to any Wyeth Other Invention (as defined below). For purposes of this Section 15.1, "Wyeth Other Invention" means any invention, development or discovery (including any intellectual property rights therein) that was made by or on behalf of Wyeth or any of its Affiliates, or which otherwise came into the control of Wyeth or any of its Affiliates prior to the Effective Date or during the term of any of the Transaction Agreements, provided any such invention, development or discovery (including any intellectual property rights therein) (i) is not a Herceptin Improvement or a Dual Use Improvement, (ii) did not arise from the use of Genentech Confidential Information and (iii) did not arise from the performance of Wyeth's obligations under the Transaction Agreements.

                        15.1.4      Survival. The terms of this Section 15.1 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Parties. The Parties will continue to reasonably cooperate with each other to perfect the rights granted in this Section 15.1.

            15.2       Ownership of Equipment.

                        15.2.1      Genentech Equipment. Genentech shall own all right, title and interest in and to any and all equipment [*] materials, and other assets purchased by Genentech and provided to Wyeth for use under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the equipment listed in Exhibit D of the Technology Transfer Project Plan, the Portable Equipment specified in Section 5.7 and Non-Portable Equipment (collectively, the "Genentech Equipment"), free and clear of any right or claim of Wyeth. All Genentech Equipment shall be maintained in good repair by Wyeth.

                        15.2.2      Facilities; Wyeth Equipment. Wyeth or one or more of its Affiliates shall own all right, title and interest in and to any and all facilities improvements, [*] and any and all equipment, materials, and other assets purchased by Wyeth or such Affiliates hereunder (including, without limitation, the Wyeth Equipment).

                        15.2.3      Purchase of Genentech Equipment by Wyeth. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, at the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Wyeth may, upon mutual agreement of the Parties (including

 

- 42 -


 

mutual agreement as to the amount Wyeth shall reimburse Genentech thereof to retain such Genentech Equipment), retain some or all of the Genentech Equipment. In addition, all of the Genentech Equipment shall also be subject to the provisions of Section 21.9 below.

                        15.2.4      Removal of Genentech Equipment. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, if Wyeth fails to timely arrange for the removal, at Genentech's expense, of the Genentech Equipment (other than the Genentech Equipment that the Parties have mutually agreed that Wyeth shall retain and reimburse Genentech for) from the Facility, Genentech shall send written notice requesting such removal. If such removal has not occurred within thirty (30) days after such notice, then Genentech shall be entitled to hire a qualified Third Party at Genentech's expense to enter the Facility with written notice at least five (5) business days in advance and remove such Genentech Equipment, which shall be removed in a reasonable manner without damage to the Facility. For clarification purposes, removal of the Genentech Equipment shall not in and of itself be considered damage to the Facility.

Expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not exempt any Party from paying to any other Party any amounts (other than amounts in dispute in accordance with procedures set forth in Section 6.9) owing to such Party at the time of such expiration or termination (and after resolution of such dispute, from paying such previously disputed amount, if applicable). Except as expressly stated otherwise herein, remedies under this Agreement are cumulative, and nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any Party, in the case of a material breach (after expiration of the applicable Cure Period and notice periods), from terminating this Agreement and seeking to enforce its rights under this Agreement.

Upon any termination of this Agreement, Genentech shall pay Wyeth at the prevailing Conversion Fee for all Batches that have been manufactured but not yet delivered to Genentech as of the effective date of such termination and at a price to be agreed upon (but in no event to exceed the Conversion Fee) for all Batches that are otherwise in-process Runs as of the effective date of such termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, any Runs that were scheduled to be initiated on or after the effective date of such termination shall be canceled. Runs that are in-process at the [*] scale as of the effective date of any such termination shall not be cancelled without the mutual agreement of the Parties, and the Agreement shall continue to survive with respect to those in-process Runs.

                        21.9.3      Return of Raw Materials. Subject to Wyeth's obligation upon receipt of a notice of termination to place no further orders for Raw Materials, intermediates or packaging components except as may be necessary for completion of any portion of Wyeth's services hereunder that are not immediately terminated, upon expiration of this Agreement or termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Article 21, Wyeth shall either destroy or transfer to Genentech, at Genentech's option and expense, all remaining usable Raw Materials ordered from the [*] for the manufacture and packaging of Product under this Agreement. Wyeth shall invoice Genentech for Wyeth's cost of all such Raw Materials destroyed or delivered to Genentech under this Section 21.9.3 upon the date of destruction or delivery of such Raw Materials, and Genentech shall pay such invoice in accordance with the terms of Section 6.9.

                        21.9.4      Return of Genentech Proprietary Materials and of Genentech Confidential Information, Transfer of Genentech Equipment. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, unless otherwise directed by Genentech, Wyeth shall, within thirty (30) days after such expiration or termination: (i) either destroy or transfer to Genentech, at Genentech's option and expense, all quantities of Product and all quantities of the Cell Line, Master Cell Bank, and Working Cell Bank received by Wyeth under this Agreement or the Quality Agreement, with any such destruction to be certified in writing to Genentech by an authorized Wyeth officer, (ii) return all Genentech Confidential Information to Genentech, provided that Wyeth may keep one (1) copy of the Genentech Confidential Information for its legal records with such Confidential Information continuing to be subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement, and (iii) return to Genentech all retention and reserve samples of Product being held by Wyeth pursuant to Section 13.8 hereof.

                        21.9.5      Return of Wyeth Confidential Information. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, and at Wyeth's written request, Genentech shall promptly return all Wyeth Confidential Information to Wyeth; provided that Genentech may keep one (1) copy of such Wyeth Confidential Information for its legal records with such Confidential Information continuing to be subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.

                        21.9.6      Accrued Rights. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, any termination or expiration of this Agreement shall be without prejudice to any right which shall have accrued to the benefit of either Party and shall not relieve either Party of any warranties or obligations that have accrued prior to the effective date of such termination or expiration including, without limitation, any liability for breach of this Agreement, which obligations or warranties shall remain in full force and effect for the period provided therein or, if no period is provided therein, then such obligations shall remain in full force and effect indefinitely.

ARTICLE  22.
ASSIGNMENT

            22.1       Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Parties and the name of a Party appearing herein shall be deemed to include the names of its successors and assigns. Neither Party may assign its interest under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, either Party may assign its interest under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party, (a) to an Affiliate, so long as such Party guarantees the obligations of such Affiliate, or (b) subject to Section 21.8, to a successor of such Party's business by reason of merger, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the business to which this Agreement relates or other form of acquisition. Any purported assignment without a required consent shall be void. No assignment shall relieve any Party of responsibility for the performance of any obligation that accrued prior to the effective date of such assignment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Wyeth may use one or more of its Affiliates to perform all or a portion of its obligations hereunder, but Wyeth will not thereby be relieved of any obligation under this Agreement.

ARTICLE  23.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION

 

            23.1       Intellectual Property Disputes. Any dispute relating to the determination of validity of a Party's patents or other issues relating to a Party's intellectual property and which dispute arises under this Agreement shall be submitted exclusively to any federal court having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter, or to a state court in such jurisdiction if the applicable rules of civil procedure preclude federal court jurisdiction, and the Parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts, and therefore Section 23.1 below shall not apply to any such disputes.

            23.2       Dispute Resolution.

                        23.2.1      Disputes. The Parties recognize that a bona fide dispute as to certain matters may from time to time arise during the term of this Agreement that relates to a Party's rights and/or obligations under the Transaction Agreements. Unless otherwise specifically recited in this Agreement, disputes arising under the Transaction Agreements will be resolved as recited in this Section 23.1. In the event of the occurrence of such a dispute, either Party may, by written notice to the other Party, have such dispute referred to their respective executive officers designated below, or their respective successors or designees, for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations within thirty (30) business days after such notice is received. Such designated officers are as follows:

            For Genentech -- Vice President, Global Supply Chain

            For Wyeth -- Executive Vice President and General Manager, BioPharma Business Unit

In the event the executive officers, or their respective successors or designees, are not able to resolve such dispute within such thirty (30)-day period, or such other period of time as the Parties may mutually agree in writing, either Party may pursue any legal or equitable remedies available to it by filing a claim exclusively in the federal courts of the state of Delaware, provided, however, that if there is no federal court jurisdiction over such claim, either Party may pursue such claim exclusively in Delaware state court and, in the case of each of the foregoing, each Party hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such court and each Party hereby irrevocably waives its right to a jury trial before any such court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 23.1 (including the duty to engage in good faith negotiations between the Parties' executive officers) shall prohibit a Party from seeking provisional or equitable relief, including, without limitation, attachment, replevin, or preliminary or temporary injunctive relief from any state or federal court having jurisdiction over the matter to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, or preserve the subject matter of the dispute pending the resolution of a dispute in accordance with the provisions of this Section 23.1.

ARTICLE  24.
FORCE MAJEURE

            24.1       Effect of Force Majeure Event. Neither Party shall be in breach of this Agreement if there is any failure of its performance under this Agreement (except for payment of any amounts due under this Agreement) as a result of any reason beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Party affected thereby, including an act of God (including, without limitation, fire, earthquake, flood, storm or other natural disaster), act of government or state or an agency thereof (including without limitation, any changes to applicable laws or regulations, order or injunction, that has a material adverse affect on a Party's ability to perform its obligations hereunder), war, acts of terrorists, civil unrest, insurrection, embargo, lack of viability of any biological materials provided by Genentech and a failure of Genentech to replace such biological materials, an infectious virus or other contaminant which causes a shutdown for a substantial period of a large portion of Wyeth's Andover facility or all or part of the Facility itself due to contamination despite Wyeth's use of Commercially Reasonable Diligent Efforts to prevent such occurrence, prevention from or hindrance in obtaining energy or other utilities, a market shortage of or other failure of Third Party suppliers to supply Raw Materials or other necessary components of the Manufacturing Process (other than due to Wyeth's failure to satisfy its obligations under Section 4.9.2), or labor disputes (including work stoppages resulting therefrom) of whatever nature (each, a "Force Majeure Event"). Nothing in this Section 24.1 shall, however, release such Party from using its Commercially Reasonable Diligent Efforts to avoid or remove all such causes. Upon cessation of such Force Majeure Event, the affected Party shall promptly resume performance under this Agreement.

            24.2       Notice of Force Majeure. Each Party agrees to give the other Party prompt written notice of the occurrence of any Force Majeure Event, the nature thereof, and the extent to which the affected Party will be unable fully to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Each Party further agrees to use Commercially Reasonable Diligent Efforts to correct the Force Majeure Event as quickly as practicable and to give the other Party prompt written notice when it is again fully able to perform such obligations.

            24.3       Target Dates and Milestones. In the event of any Force Majeure Event, the Target Dates specified in Section 4.3 and/or the dates for completion of milestones set forth in Section 6.3 shall be extended by the period of time during which such Force Majeure Event exists.

            24.4       Termination. Subject to Sections 21.8 and 21.9, either Party may terminate this Agreement if a Party is unable to substantially perform its obligations hereunder as a direct result of a Force Majeure Event that remains unresolved for a period of six (6) months despite efforts to correct the Force Majeure Event in accordance with Section 24.2.

ARTICLE  25.
