9.10.4 Changes in Domicile.

If either Party is seeking indemnification under Section 13.1 (Indemnification by Ionis) or Section 13.2 (Indemnification by Otsuka) (the “Indemnified Party”), then it will inform the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the Third Party Claim giving rise to such indemnification obligations within [***] after receiving written notice of the Third Party Claim (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure or delay by an Indemnified Party to give such notice of a Third Party Claim will not affect the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party will have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure or delay to give notice).

If the Licensed Compound is sold separately in an applicable reporting period in a country in the Otsuka Territory, but the Other Product(s) are not sold separately in the same country in the same reporting period, then Net Sales of such Combination Product will be calculated by multiplying the Combination Product Net Sales by the fraction A/C where A is the average selling price of the Licensed Compound sold separately in such country during such reporting period, and C is the average selling price of the Combination Product in such country during such reporting period. If neither the Licensed Compound nor the Other Product(s) are sold separately in the same country in the same reporting period, then Net Sales of such Combination Product will be calculated by multiplying the Combination Product Net Sales by a fraction that reflects the value of the Licensed Compound relative to the value of the Other Product(s) in such Combination Product, which fraction shall be determined by Otsuka in its reasonable judgment, and reasonably acceptable to Ionis, and in such event, Otsuka shall provide Ionis with supporting documentation for such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that the Licensed Product Manufactured and supplied by Ionis pursuant to the Supply Agreements in the form of an autoinjector pre-filled with Licensed Compound will not be subject to the terms of this paragraph, and such autoinjector will not be deemed an Other Product for purposes of calculating Net Sales.
