Item 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
• | In May 2014, we and AstraZeneca announced that the phase 3 AMAGINE-1TM study evaluating brodalumab in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis met all primary and secondary endpoints for both evaluated doses. |
• | In May 2014, we announced that the FDA has approved Vectibix® for use in combination with FOLFOX, an oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy regimen, as first-line treatment in patients with wild-type KRAS (exon 2) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). |
• | In July 2014, we announced that the FDA has granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to investigational bispecific T cell engager (BiTE®) antibody blinatumomab, for adults with Philadelphia-negative (Ph-) relapsed/refractory B-precursor ALL, a rapidly progressing cancer of the blood and bone marrow. |
• | In July 2014, we announced that a phase 3 study evaluating AMG 416 for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic kidney disease receiving hemodialysis, met its primary and all secondary endpoints. |
• | In July 2014, we announced that we submitted a New Drug Application for chronic heart failure in the United States. |
• | In July 2014, we announced that we submitted a BLA in the United States for regionally and distantly metastatic melanoma. |
• | In August 2014, we and our subsidiary Onyx announced that a planned interim analysis demonstrated that the phase 3 clinical trial ASPIRE (CArfilzomib, Lenalidomide, and DexamethaSone versus Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone for the treatment of PatIents with Relapsed Multiple MyEloma) met its primary endpoint of progression-free survival. Patients treated with Kyprolis® for Injection in combination with Revlimid® (lenalidomide) and low-dose dexamethasone (KRd) lived significantly longer without their disease worsening (median 26.3 months) compared to patients treated with Revlimid and low-dose dexamethasone (Rd) (median 17.6 months). While the data for overall survival, a secondary endpoint, are not yet mature, the analysis showed a trend in favor of KRd that did not reach statistical significance. The safety profile observed in this study is consistent with the current U.S. Kyprolis® label, including the rate of cardiac events. Treatment discontinuation due to adverse events and on-study deaths were comparable between the two arms. No new safety signals were identified. |
• | In July 2014, we announced a restructuring plan under which we will reduce staff by 2,400 to 2,900 by the end of 2015 and close our facilities in the states of Washington and Colorado. We will also reduce the number of buildings at our headquarters in Thousand Oaks, California. These actions will result in pre-tax accounting charges in the range of $775 million to $950 million, primarily incurred in 2014 and 2015. |

3. | GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT |
3.1. | Mutual Cooperation. The Parties’ intent with regard to their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement is to effect a complete and timely transition that ensures reasonable continuity in the promotion and commercialization of Ivory in the Collaboration Scope in each country of the Transition Territory and the maintenance of key customer and stakeholder relationships during the Transition. The Parties and their respective Affiliates shall reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the performance of the Transition activities contemplated in this Agreement, including making available on a timely basis to the other Party such personnel, information or records (or copies thereof) as may be reasonably requested with respect thereto (as well as any material updates to any information previously provided), provided that such cooperation shall not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Parties and their respective Affiliates. |
3.2. | GSK Obligation. GSK shall provide (and/or cause one or more of its Affiliates to provide) to Amgen or its Affiliates the following services during the Term: GSK will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to effect a smooth and orderly transition of Material Activities and Other Activities to Amgen or its Affiliates, as set forth in this Agreement and the Transition Plan by the date set forth for each country in Schedule 3.2 (each such date, an “Anticipated Transition Date”) or by December 31, 2014 (the “Transition”). GSK will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to meet its obligations to execute Designated GSK Activities within the Collaboration Scope solely if, and to the extent, provided in the Transition Plan or otherwise in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Country Plans implementing the 2014 Brand Plan provide the maximum level of GSK Designated Activities that GSK will be required to perform under the Transition Plan with respect to the applicable country, and under no circumstances, including amendments to the Transition Plan in accordance with Section 3.4.2, shall GSK be required to conduct Details in any country of the Transition Territory in excess of those set forth in such Country Plans. If GSK and its Affiliates perform some or all of their services hereunder through Third Parties, to the extent permitted under this Agreement, GSK will be responsible for compliance by its Affiliates and such Third Parties with this Agreement and will be responsible for all acts and omissions of such Affiliates and Third Parties as if committed or omitted by GSK. |
3.3. | Amgen Obligation. Amgen Inc and Amgen will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to meet their respective obligations as further outlined in this Agreement and the Transition Plan, in cooperation with GSK, to ensure that the Transition is effected in a smooth and orderly manner and within the timeframe specified therein. Without limiting the foregoing, if GSK is required to complete a task in a specified timeframe in the Transition Plan or this Agreement, and such timing is subject to agreement of, or actions or responses by Amgen or Amgen Inc., then Amgen or Amgen Inc., as applicable, shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to agree, act or respond in a manner that does not impact GSK’s ability to carry out its obligations under the Transition Plan and this Agreement in the timelines agreed by Amgen Inc and GSK. Amgen or Amgen Inc and their respective Affiliates shall have the right to perform |
3.4. | Transition Plan. |
3.4.1. | As of the Effective Date, the Parties have mutually agreed to the Transition Plan attached hereto as Schedule 3.4(a) that governs the conduct of Material Activities and Other Activities by GSK, Amgen Inc and Amgen across all countries in the Transition Territory. In addition, the Parties have agreed to country-specific budgets applicable to the conduct of the Transition in such country, which are attached hereto as Schedule 3.4(b) (the “Transition Budget”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Country Teams may agree to conduct activities in addition to the requirements of the Transition Plan, which additional activities will be communicated to the Transition Managers; provided, that (a) non-performance of any additional activities agreed by a Country Team shall not affect payment of the Termination Payment to GSK, which shall be based solely on completion of the Material Activities that have been defined as of the Effective Date as provided in Section 9.1, and such additional activities shall not be included in the Transition Budget; and (b) the Service Payment payable to GSK under Section 9.2 shall be deemed to cover all items in the Transition Budget, regardless of the actual amounts budgeted or spent. |
3.4.2. | None of the Parties may make unilateral changes to the Transition Plan; provided that the Parties may from time to time make such changes to the Transition Plan as they mutually agree in writing as described in this Section 3.4.2. If a Party desires to amend the Transition Plan, then the Transition Manager for such Party shall discuss such change with the Transition Manager from the other Party. If the Transition Managers agree to amend the Transition Plan, then Amgen’s Transition Manager shall promptly notify the Country Teams of the same in writing as approved by GSK’s Transition Manager. The Transition Managers are not required to agree to any amendment to the Transition Plan, and in the event the Transition Managers cannot agree to any particular amendment, the status quo shall apply save as provided below in this Section 3.4.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Material Change occurs in a country of the Transition Territory prior to the Anticipated Transition Date that was not reasonably foreseeable as of the Effective Date, then either Amgen or GSK may request the other Party to amend the Transition Plan, solely with respect to the country or countries that are affected by such Material Change, in a manner that reasonably addresses the changed circumstances and that seeks to achieve their respective intentions in entering into this Agreement, and the Party to whom such request has been made shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to the requested amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, the decision-making provisions of the Collaboration Agreement do not apply to the amendment of the Transition Plan. |
3.4.3. | GSK shall provide a report to Amgen not later than June 15, 2014 setting forth the estimated budget allocated by GSK to conduct the Transition in respect of the third calendar quarter of 2014; for the avoidance of doubt, the column entitled “Q2” in the Transition Budget covers such information for the second calendar quarter of 2014.

3.5. | Other. The following provisions shall apply in respect of the Parties’ activities within the Collaboration Scope and the Transition during the Term: |
3.5.1. | the provisions of this Agreement, including certain provisions of the Collaboration Agreement that are stated in Schedule 2.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement to survive and are accordingly incorporated by reference herein (including as amended by this Agreement), shall apply to all countries within the Transition Territory; |
3.5.2. | to the extent that there is any inconsistency between the Transition Plan and the remaining provisions of this Agreement, the remaining provisions of this Agreement will control; and |
3.5.3. | the PV Agreement shall remain in full force and effect during the Term of this Agreement and thereafter in accordance with section 11.7 of the PV Agreement. |
3.6. | Determination of Transition Date; Milestones. The date on which completion of all of the Material Activities set out in the Transition Plan with respect to a particular country has occurred, as agreed in writing by the Transition Managers based on the recommendation of the applicable Country Team, shall be deemed the “Transition Date” for such country. The Parties will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to align the Transition Date for such country with the Anticipated Transition Date for such country. GSK shall notify Amgen in writing when it reasonably believes that it has completed all of the Material Activities set out in the Transition Plan with respect to a country. If, after receipt of such notice the Country Team or Transition Managers cannot agree that the Material Activities have been completed, then Amgen shall provide written notice in sufficient detail to GSK explaining what Material Activity has not been completed. If GSK receives such written notice and GSK disagrees with Amgen’s assertion, then GSK, Amgen or Amgen Inc may refer such disagreement for resolution in accordance with Section 15.1. “Milestone A” shall be deemed to have been achieved upon occurrence of the Transition Date in respect of all the countries set forth on Schedule 9.1.1.2 (as determined by the Transition Managers or in accordance with Section 15.1) and “Milestone B” shall be deemed to have been achieved upon occurrence of the Transition Date in respect of all the countries set forth on Schedule 9.1.1.3 (as determined by the Transition Managers or in accordance with Section 15.1). |
4. | SPECIFIC TRANSITION ACTIVITIES |
4.1. | Transition Activities. GSK, Amgen and Amgen Inc and/or each of their respective Affiliates shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to conduct the Material Activities and Other Activities set forth in the Transition Plan as described in Article 3, and in accordance with the specific provisions of this Article 4. |
4.1.1. | Transfer of Product Data. |
4.1.1.1. | GSK will transfer to Amgen or its designee, at no cost, all Product Data that is specifically described in the Transition Plan with the goal of completing such transfer by the Anticipated Transition Date and in accordance with this Section 4.1.1. Transfers of Product Data will be in electronic format reasonably usable by Amgen, unless otherwise agreed between the Parties, acting reasonably, and will include original hardcopies or duplicate copies thereof if legally required. For Product Data in electronic format, the Parties shall use such system as may be mutually agreed by the Parties for such purpose and such system shall remain active until all Material Activities are completed in all countries of the Transition Territory. Product Data will be exchanged via common industry-standard interchange formats wherever possible, and the final form and format shall be agreed between the Parties prior to each data transfer; provided, that GSK shall be permitted to return Product Data to Amgen in the same format in which it was provided to GSK (solely where such format was not subsequently materially amended by GSK), without further modification or discussion with Amgen. |
4.1.1.2. | Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Transition Plan, GSK shall be responsible for transfer of Product Data to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, including data privacy laws applicable in each country of the Transition Territory. Where such Applicable Laws require either consent of an individual or notification to or approval of a local data privacy authority to transfer such Product Data, then GSK shall use the specific efforts as set forth in the Transition Plan to obtain such consent or approval or to make such notification; provided, that Amgen or its Affiliates shall provide reasonable assistance as requested by GSK. GSK shall provide to Amgen within two (2) Business Days of the Effective Date copies of the Transition Territory country-specific data privacy consent forms that GSK sends to Physicians in those countries. Where consent or approval cannot be obtained using the efforts set forth in the Transition Plan, such Product Data shall not be transferred to Amgen, and GSK’s obligation with respect to such Material Activity shall be deemed satisfied. |
4.1.1.3. | GSK shall have no obligation to take steps to transfer Product Data that is in the possession of Amgen or Amgen Inc (as promptly confirmed in writing by Amgen or Amgen Inc., as applicable, or as determined as set forth in the Transition Plan), or resides on the existing Sharepoint site or Amgen Media Portal. |
4.1.1.4. | Amgen will comply with Applicable Laws, including data privacy laws, with respect to the processing and storing of Product Data received from GSK under this Agreement. |
4.1.2. | Detailing Activities. In accordance with the Transition Plan and this Agreement, GSK shall continue to Detail Ivory in each country of the Transition Territory within the Collaboration Scope and to conduct the Designated GSK Activities until the Transition in respect of such country is completed in accordance with this Agreement. GSK shall ensure that representatives of GSK and/or its Affiliates and/or any CSO (as defined below) engaged by or on behalf of GSK and/or its Affiliates fulfill and document completion of all Details per representative that is stipulated in the Transition Plan, which number of Details shall not be more than GSK would be obligated to conduct in the same period in the same country under the existing agreed 2014 Brand Plan as implemented by the applicable Country Team, and no new coverage or frequency shall be required. |
4.1.3. | Customer Introduction. GSK will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to facilitate a face-to- face introduction between each Physician to which it Details Ivory and an Amgen Rep; provided that such Physician consents to such introduction in accordance with Section 4.1.1.2, as further described in this Section 4.1.3 and the Transition Plan. After transfer of Product Data described in Line Refs. 1 and 2 of the Transition Plan to Amgen or its Affiliates, the Country Teams shall meet to agree on prioritization of introductions and a schedule for such introductions. If the Country Team cannot agree on prioritization, Amgen shall have the final decision with respect to which Physicians to prioritize. For the avoidance of doubt, if introductions are not possible because consent was not obtained, then GSK’s obligation to facilitate such meeting shall be deemed satisfied. Further, if any Physician provides consent in accordance with Section 4.1.1.2 after the time period for response set out in the Transition Plan, then GSK shall nevertheless use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to facilitate an introduction between the Amgen Rep and such Physician. In addition, GSK shall provide to Amgen the Product Data for which it has consent to transfer regardless of when consent is received, until December 31, 2014. In all cases, the meeting schedule shall take into account the number of introductions that can reasonably occur within the time period remaining before the Anticipated Transition Date for the applicable country, and the number of Details to be performed during that period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Amgen shall instruct all Amgen Reps that attend a face-to-face introduction that they are not permitted to be in attendance with a GSK Rep for such portion of any Detail call during which the GSK Rep is Detailing products other than Ivory (e.g., the Amgen Rep would step out of the call or meeting during that portion), and all such Amgen Reps shall not be permitted to attend such portion of any Detail call during which the GSK Rep is Detailing products other than Ivory. |

2. | GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES |
2.1. | Promptly after the Execution Date, the Parties shall enter into good faith negotiations with respect to the terms of the Australia Agreement, with the intention of keeping the main principles of the Collaboration Agreement but with amendments to reflect appropriate adjustments for a single country collaboration in a manner aimed at maximizing the benefits of collaboration in Australia to both Parties, and taking into consideration each of the Party’s contributions to establishment of the Ivory business in Australia under the Collaboration Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Australia Agreement shall incorporate the Substantive Provisions. |
2.2. | The Parties shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts (as defined in the TTA) to procure that the Australia Agreement shall be entered into between the Parties on or before 1 September 2014. |
3. | SCOPE AND GOVERNANCE |
3.1. | General. The governance structure set out in the Collaboration Agreement shall continue to apply, subject to the amendments set out in this Section 3. |
3.2. | Governing Bodies. The collaboration will be primarily governed by the Australia Country Team, with decisions made by consensus. The following bodies shall no longer exist, unless otherwise agreed between the Parties: the CRC, the JSC, the JBT and the JDC, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 3.3, their activities shall be carried on as the Australia Country Team shall determine. |
3.3. | Escalation. In the event of a deadlock, the decision will be made by the members of the Country Team appointed by Amgen, provided that members appointed by either Party will have the right to require that such issues be escalated to the designated senior representative from GSK and the designated senior representative from Amgen in Australia (being the General Manager for Australia for each such Party unless otherwise notified in writing to the other Party) for determination. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by the aforementioned senior representatives within 10 Business Days (as defined in the TTA) may be escalated by either Party to a senior management member from each Party (being a Regional Vice President (or his or her designee) in the case of Amgen and the SVP & General Manager, Asia Pacific and Emerging Markets (or his or her designee) in the case of GSK). Any dispute that cannot be resolved by the aforementioned senior management members within 10 Business Days will be finally decided by Amgen; provided, that the following parameters shall apply to such final decision-making authority: if the Parties cannot mutually agree (i) with respect to an annual sales forecast, then such annual forecast shall not exceed the previous year’s forecast by more than ten percent (10%); and (ii) with respect to Performance Metrics, then such Performance Metrics shall be based substantially on industry standard for the Australia osteoporosis market as determined by a reputable service such as Cegedim Promotional Monitor.

6.3. | Termination. If the sales of Ivory during any two (2) year period of the Term are less than sixty (60%) percent of the total amount forecast for such period (as set forth in the relevant Business Plan), then either Party shall have the right to terminate the Letter of Intent or the Australia Agreement during the Term (as applicable) upon six (6) months’ written notice.

The final arbitration award will be final and binding upon both parties and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement. The arbitrators will have the power to grant monetary damages as well as injunctive or other specific relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party will have the right to seek, without establishment of the arbitral tribunal, injunctive or other provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction that may be necessary to avoid irreparable harm or preserve the subject matter of a dispute. Each Party will bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees, and the Party that does not prevail in the arbitration proceeding will pay the arbitrators’ fees and any administrative fees of arbitration. |

3.1. | Allocation of Operational Responsibility. The JSC will be responsible for allocating non-country-specific commercial activities within the Collaboration Scope to Amgen and/or GSK and for determining whether operational responsibility for any such activity should be transferred from GSK to Amgen or vice versa. The Country Teams will be responsible for allocating country-specific commercial activities within the Collaboration Scope to Amgen and/or GSK in the applicable country or region overseen by such Country Team, and for determining whether operational responsibility for any such activity should be transferred from GSK to Amgen or vice versa. The Country Teams will keep the JSC informed of the initial allocation of country-specific activities and transfers thereof between the Parties. Unless and until determined otherwise by the JSC or the relevant Country Team in accordance with the foregoing, the Parties’ initial commercial responsibilities will be as set forth in the Country Plans referenced in Section 3.2 (Country Plans), and in Sections 3.3 (Designated GSK Activities) and 3.4 (Designated Amgen Activities). |
3.2. | Country Plans. Allocations of commercial operational responsibility for countries and regions within the Collaboration Scope will be set forth in country plans developed by the relevant Country Team (as such plans may be updated or modified from time-to- time by the relevant Country Team and approved by the JSC), the “Country Plans”). Country Plans will be developed by the relevant Country Team promptly upon request by the JBT, taking into account the planned launch timing for the relevant country. |
3.3. | Designated GSK Activities. GSK will be responsible for providing primary care sales representatives for Detailing Ivory within the Collaboration Scope in accordance with the Brand Plan, and conducting other activities assigned to the GSK by the JSC (with respect to non-country-specific activities) or the relevant Country Team (with respect to country-specific activities). |
3.4. | Designated Amgen Activities. Amgen will have operational responsibility to perform itself or through its designee (subject to Section 4.5 (use of Affiliates and Third Party Contractors)), all activities related to the commercialization of Ivory within the Collaboration Scope (including sales, pricing, access, coverage (including risk sharing arrangements and any health technology assessment submissions), reimbursement, presentation, ancillary items or devices, contracting, launch timing, distribution, marketing messaging, product positioning, development of training materials, sales tracking and auditing, market research and product usage surveys, provision of medical affairs support staff, scientific and medical advisory boards (including any global medical conferences regardless of whether such conferences are within or outside the Collaboration Territory) and provision of specialty care sales representatives), except for activities that are assigned to GSK by the JSC pursuant to Section 3.1 (Allocation of Operational Responsibility), assigned to GSK in the Country Plans pursuant to Section 3.2 (Country Plans) or activities that are Designated GSK Activities pursuant to Section |
3.5. | Collaboration in Commercialization Activities. The allocation of operational responsibility for commercialization activities hereunder as well as the conduct of such activities by the Parties will be subject to comprehensive discussion by the JSC, JBT and Country Teams, as applicable, where each Party will consider the input of the other with respect to the conduct of such activities. The commercial activities will be allocated on a country-specific and non-country specific basis by such committees and/or teams taking into consideration all relevant factors, including the capabilities of each Party to deliver the highest quality product in the most cost-effective manner, without duplication of efforts between the Parties. Each of the JBT and Country Teams, as applicable, will endeavor to meet the goals of the Brand Plan and Country Plans within the parameters of the Collaboration Budget established by the JSC. |
3.6. | Amgen Participation Increase and Transition. |
3.6.1. | Participation Increase. Commencing January 1, 2016, Amgen will have the right, but not the obligation, to contribute up to fifty percent (50%) of the minimum number of full-time primary care sales representatives for Detailing Ivory in one (1) or more countries in the Collaboration Territory. Amgen will provide written notice to GSK via the JSC at least six (6) months prior to the date on which Amgen desires to increase its participation, such notice to set forth the level of Amgen’s participation and the country or countries of the Collaboration Territory in which Amgen will participate. The Country Teams will be responsible for amending the Country Plans to provide for such reallocation of resources, which will be subject to review by the JSC. |
3.6.2. | Potential Quid. No later than six (6) months from the Effective Date, GSK will discuss with Amgen the potential for Amgen’s sales force to promote one (1) or more of GSK’s products on terms mutually acceptable to the Parties. If the Parties fail to agree on an arrangement for Amgen to promote such product(s), then GSK will consider in good faith engaging in discussions with Amgen, from time-to-time, if additional product quid opportunities become available. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein obligates Amgen to promote, or obligates GSK to engage Amgen to promote one (1) or more of GSK’s products, and any such agreement must be in a writing duly executed by each of the Parties. |
3.7. | All Sales by Amgen. This Agreement does not authorize GSK, its Affiliates or their respective agents or employees to sell Ivory. Amgen will have the sole right, in Amgen’s discretion, to price Ivory (including with respect to trade, quantity or other discounts), determine the launch conditions and terms of sale for Ivory, take orders for and returns of Ivory, issue credits for Ivory, sell Ivory and book sales thereof and GSK will have no rights with respect to Ivory outside the Collaboration Scope. GSK will promptly forward to Amgen all orders for, and requests to order, Ivory. Amgen will have the right to refuse or cancel any order for Ivory without liability to GSK.

3.9. | Information Concerning Ivory. |
3.9.1. | Public Statements. GSK will ensure that no claims or representations in respect of Ivory or the characteristics thereof are made by or on behalf of it or its Affiliates (by sales force members or otherwise) that have not been approved by Amgen and neither Party will make any claim or representation that does not represent an accurate summary or explanation of the labeling of Ivory. |
3.9.2. | Ownership. GSK will not represent to any Third Party that it has any proprietary or property right or interest in Ivory (or the Product Trademarks or any Patents claiming or covering Ivory or its manufacture, use or sale), except for the rights expressly granted to GSK hereunder. Furthermore, GSK acknowledges that it does not have any right, title or interest in Ivory or the Product Trademarks. |
3.10. | Promotional Materials. All written sales, promotion and advertising materials relating to Ivory (collectively “Promotional Materials”) (including translations) will be produced by Amgen in accordance with the Brand Plan developed by the JBT and reviewed and approved by the JSC. Any Promotional Materials will include, if permitted by Applicable Law, the Amgen Housemarks and the GSK Housemarks (provided, however, that Amgen will be entitled a reasonable transition period after any required legal approval is obtained to design, order, receive and implement Promotional Materials revised to include the GSK Housemarks). Materials that include the GSK Housemarks will use such GSK Housemarks in accordance with any reasonable usage guidelines provided by GSK, and any usage not conforming with such guidelines will require GSK’s prior approval as to the use of such GSK Housemarks. GSK will respond to any such requests for approval within ten (10) business days. In the absence of such response within such period, the request will be deemed approved. Unless otherwise determined by the JSC, Amgen will be responsible for the printing and delivery to GSK of Promotional Materials for use in GSK’s Detailing obligations hereunder, and costs therefor will be included as Amgen Costs for purposes of Collaboration Profit (Loss). Other than GSK’s use and distribution of Promotional Materials that are approved by the JSC and used and distributed in connection with GSK’s Detailing of Ivory within the Collaboration Scope, GSK will not produce or modify (other than as concepts for consideration by Amgen), or distribute or otherwise use any promotional or communications material relating to Ivory. If so instructed by Amgen, GSK will immediately cease to use any Promotional Materials and will collect and destroy any such materials from its sales representatives (and record and document such collection and destruction (and provide a copy of such documentation to Amgen upon request)). Amgen will own all right, title and interest in and to any and all Promotional Materials including applicable Copyrights and trademarks (except with respect to any GSK Housemarks included in any Promotional Materials), and GSK will |
3.11. | Detailing Reports and Audit Rights. |
3.11.1. | Reporting. Each Party will provide the other Party with a report (each a “Detail Report”), in such form and manner as determined by the JSC, within twenty (20) calendar days after the end of each calendar month included in the Term, setting forth the following information regarding the efforts of the reporting Party’s sales force in Detailing Ivory during the preceding month: (i) the total number of Details made by such sales force, including a breakdown of First Position Details, Second Position Details and Other Details by target and frequency of Detail by customer priority; and (ii) such other information as may be specified by the JSC or JBT. |
3.11.2. | Audits. Each Party will keep complete and accurate records of its Detailing of Ivory in sufficient detail to permit the other Party to audit its performance of Details hereunder. During normal business hours and with not less than ten (10) days’ advance written notice, a Party will permit the other Party or its authorized representatives to: (i) have access to the records of Detailing activities maintained by such Party for purposes of verifying the accuracy of reports described in Section 3.12.1 (Reporting); and (ii) audit such records; provided, that such audits may not be performed by a Party more than once per calendar year. Any and all audits undertaken pursuant to this Section 3.11.2 (Audits) will be performed at the sole and exclusive expense of the auditing Party and will not be included in Amgen Costs or GSK Costs, as the case may be, for purposes of calculating Collaboration Profit (Loss). If an audit reveals an overstatement of Details of greater than five percent (5%) of the correct amount for the audited period, then the audited Party will pay the reasonable out-of-pocket cost of such inspection. |
3.12. | Medical Inquiries and Product Inquiries. GSK will comply with the directions and policies which Amgen may formulate concerning responses to be made to medical questions or inquiries from members of the medical and paramedical professions and consumers regarding Ivory (including, if so directed, by referring such questions or inquiries to Amgen) and will, if so requested by Amgen, provide Amgen with details of inquiries received and responses given (including reporting regulatory and safety information as provided in Section 10.1.5 (Regulatory and Safety Information). For questions which GSK and its professional sales representatives have not received prepared answers or which are not answered by then existing Ivory information provided by Amgen (including with respect to technical information such as identification, ingredients or stability/storage), GSK will refer such questions to Amgen. For medical inquiries related to Ivory, including those related to information outside of labeling or which GSK and its professional sales representatives are unable or not authorized under accepted national and international pharmaceutical industry codes of practices to answer, GSK will redirect such inquiries to Amgen. Unless otherwise determined by the JSC, all responses to such medical inquiries from patients, medical professionals, or other third Parties will be provided solely by Amgen. GSK will |
3.13. | Samples. The JBT will determine and specify in the Brand Plan whether and in what manner and quantities of samples of Ivory (“Samples”) will be provided to customers. If the JBT determines that Samples will be provided through the sales force, Amgen will provide GSK with such Samples which GSK will use solely in Detailing Ivory in accordance with the Brand Plan. The Parties will maintain such records with respect to Samples as are required by Applicable Law and applicable national and international pharmaceutical industry codes of practices and will allow representatives of the other Party to inspect such records on reasonable request. Amgen will be solely responsible for the filing of any necessary or required reports to Governmental Authorities with respect to Samples, and GSK will reasonably cooperate with Amgen with respect thereto. If Samples are to be provided through sales representatives, Amgen will ship the Samples to one central warehouse of GSK, as designated by GSK, and the risk of loss and responsibility for handling and warehousing of Samples will pass to GSK upon delivery to a carrier designated by GSK. GSK will be responsible for distributing Samples to its sales representatives in a timely manner. If Amgen determines that another method of Sample distribution is more appropriate, then the Parties will reasonably cooperate to facilitate such distribution. Each Party will be responsible for securing the return of and reconciling existing Sample inventories from its own discontinued field sales representatives and other personnel. Within thirty (30) days after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, or as otherwise requested by Amgen, GSK will return, or otherwise dispose of in accordance with instructions from Amgen, all remaining Samples provided by Amgen and will provide Amgen with a certified statement that all remaining Samples have been returned or otherwise properly disposed of and that GSK is no longer in possession or control of any such Samples. |
3.14. | Non-Commercial Activities. Unless otherwise determined by the JDC, Amgen will have the sole right to perform, itself or through its Affiliates or designees, all non- commercialization activities with respect to Ivory in the Collaboration Scope. In addition, Amgen will have the sole right to perform activities with respect to Ivory outside the Collaboration Scope and GSK will not promote or conduct any activities with respect to Ivory outside the Collaboration Scope except as may be expressly agreed pursuant to a written agreement between the Parties. Activities to be conducted by Amgen with respect to Ivory in the Collaboration Scope include: |
3.14.1. | Research and Development. Global research and development activities in accordance with the Development Plan, including Phase IV Trials, generation of health economics information, and approval of requests to perform ISS; |
3.14.2. | Regulatory. Seeking, obtaining and holding all Regulatory Approvals and holding and controlling all Regulatory Filings for Ivory in each of the Collaboration Territory countries, as well as responsibility for all regulatory interactions and communications in the Collaboration Territory; |
3.14.3. | Safety. Maintaining the global safety database and core data sheet for Ivory, assessing and reporting adverse events, and handling any product complaints and/or recalls; and |
3.14.4. | Manufacturing.

GSK will have the right to audit Amgen’s manufacturing facilities and any Third Party manufacturing facilities used for the manufacture of Ivory in the Collaboration Scope on a periodic basis, not to exceed once every eighteen (18) months for routine audits (“Routine Audits”) or as defined below with respect to for-cause audits (“For Cause Audits”) (provided such request is made within sixty (60) days of GSK being informed of or becoming aware of an event that would permit a For Cause Audit in GSK’s reasonable opinion). GSK will bear the cost of all Routine Audits and For Cause Audits of Amgen manufacturing facilities conducted by GSK and such costs will not be subject to cost-sharing between the Parties under this Agreement. The costs of any Routine Audits and For Cause Audits of any Third Party manufacturing facility requested by GSK will be included in GSK Costs and will be subject to the cost-sharing principles under this Agreement, unless otherwise provided below. GSK will notify Amgen in writing if GSK desires to conduct any manufacturing audit, and the Parties will mutually agree upon reasonable audit agendas in advance and reasonably cooperate in the conduct of such audit. If GSK notifies Amgen that GSK desires to conduct either a For Cause Audit or Routine Audit of a Third Party manufacturer, Amgen will notify GSK if Amgen’s contract with such Third Party manufacturer permits GSK to conduct such audit, in which case Amgen will allow GSK to conduct such audit (with Amgen’s participation, if it chooses). If Amgen’s contract with such Third Party manufacturer does not permit GSK to conduct audits, then Amgen will conduct such audit and share the results with GSK to the extent permitted under Amgen’s contract with such Third Party manufacturer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties will cooperate to coordinate and achieve reasonable efficiencies with respect to audits of Third Party manufacturers as follows: (i) if GSK requests a Routine Audit of a Third Party manufacturer, and Amgen has conducted a Routine Audit of such manufacturer in the previous eighteen (18) months, then Amgen will share with GSK the results of any Routine Audit of such Third Party (to the extent permitted under Amgen’s contract with such Third Party manufacturer), (ii) if after sharing the results described under (i), GSK would like to proceed with a Routine Audit of such Third Party, then, to the extent permitted under Amgen’s contract with such Third Party manufacturer, GSK may conduct such Routine Audit (or, to the extent permitted under Amgen’s contract with such Third Party manufacturer, Amgen will conduct such Routine Audit if GSK is not permitted to do so under the applicable Third Party manufacturing contract) and the costs of such Routine Audit will be borne by GSK and will not be subject to cost-sharing under this Agreement. Any audit of a Third Party manufacturer will be subject to the terms and conditions of Amgen’s contract(s) with such manufacturer and GSK will cooperate and coordinate with Amgen to comply with all reasonable terms and conditions communicated by Amgen in connection with the performance of such audit. Any audit of an Amgen |

The minimums will be subject to periodic adjustments by the applicable Country Team (subject to approval by the JSC). Unless otherwise determined by the JSC or the relevant Country Team, GSK will Detail at least those primary care prescribers who in the aggregate are expected to prescribe eighty percent (80%) of PMO prescriptions in such country (provided, however, that in Germany GSK will Detail no less than the top three (3) deciles of prescribers), and at least sixty percent (60%) of GSK’s Details of Ivory in the Collaboration Territory will be First Position Details; provided, that the first sleeve of sales representatives will Detail Ivory only as First Position Details, unless otherwise determined by the relevant Country Team). The Parties will not Detail Ivory in the Collaboration Scope except as expressly set forth in the Brand Plan (including with respect to Detailing only to those types of healthcare professionals as set forth in the Brand Plan) and the applicable Country Plan and GSK will not promote or Detail Ivory outside the Collaboration Scope. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that to achieve the maximum effect of increasing prescribing preferences of Ivory, the JSC or JBT may determine that there will be sales representatives of each Party that are solely dedicated to Detailing Ivory in the Collaboration Scope, and that, for the first three (3) years following the Effective Date, the Amgen sales representatives are expected to promote only Ivory unless otherwise determined by the JSC. |
4.3.2. | Sales Force Minimum. Each Party will only use its employees to perform sales activities under this Agreement, including as sales representatives and sales managers, and will not utilize a contract sales organization to fulfill its obligations to Detail Ivory in the Collaboration Scope. Each sales representative of GSK that will Detail Ivory and each sales manager for Ivory of GSK will have comparable educational qualifications and experience as Amgen requires for its own sales representatives and sales managers for Ivory; provided, that if GSK requires stricter standards applicable to its sales representatives pursuant to its codes of practice, then those additional standards will also apply to GSK’s sales representatives.

The JSC will have the right to require the removal of any personnel that materially violates Applicable Law or applicable national or international pharmaceutical industry codes of practices from performing activities contemplated under this Agreement with respect to Ivory in the Collaboration Scope. |
4.5. | Use of Affiliates and Third Party Contractors. GSK will perform the Designated GSK Activities itself or through a wholly-owned Affiliate, and any proposed use of a Third Party to conduct Designated GSK Activities will be subject to Amgen’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

Each Party will provide the day-to-day management of its sales representatives and other personnel, including furnishing administrative support, financial resources, equipment and supplies. |
4.8. | COGS. Amgen will supply Ivory for the Collaboration Scope in a manner consistent with its general corporate practice for supply. Amgen will not systematically supply Ivory for the Collaboration Scope from higher-priced Inventory Layers for the purpose of increasing costs chargeable within the Collaboration Scope.

The Parties will promptly provide the JSC and JDC all reasonably requested information to facilitate the preparation or updating of each Collaboration Budget or Development Budget, as applicable, including detailed estimates of GSK Costs and Amgen Costs for the following calendar year. |
6.1.6.2. | Overruns. Each Party will provide prompt, written advance notice to the other Party if it becomes aware of any anticipated costs to be incurred by such Party in excess of the applicable Collaboration Budget or Development Budget. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in advance, in writing, costs reported by a Party pursuant to Section 6.1.1 (GSK Costs) or 6.1.2 (Amgen Costs) incurred in excess of one hundred and five percent (105%) of any aggregate amounts budgeted to be incurred by or on behalf of such Party for its activities for such calendar year in the then-current Collaboration Budget or Development Budget will not be included in the calculation of profit (or loss) pursuant to Section 6.1.8 |
6.1.7. | Ivory Net Revenues. Within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, Amgen will provide GSK with a reasonably detailed report of Ivory Net Revenues for such calendar quarter. |
6.1.8. | Calculation of Profit (or Loss). The total profit (or loss) for a calendar quarter will be calculated by Amgen by first deducting from Ivory Net Revenues for such quarter a percentage of such Ivory Net Revenues equal to the Inventorship Margin, which will be paid to Amgen to reflect Amgen’s inventorship of Ivory; and then deducting from the remaining Ivory Net Revenues the GSK Costs and Amgen Costs reported by the Parties pursuant to Sections 6.1.1 (GSK Costs) and 6.1.2 (Amgen Costs). The resulting amount will be the “Collaboration Profit (Loss)” for such quarter, which will be shared by the Parties equally. |
6.1.9. | True-up. Within ninety (90) days of the end of each calendar quarter, Amgen will calculate and provide to GSK a report of the Collaboration Profit (Loss) for such quarter, and a balancing payment will be made between the Parties such that each Party bears one half of the sum of GSK Costs and Amgen Costs, and each Party receives one half of Ivory Net Revenues, after deducting the amount allocated to Amgen under Section 6.1.8 (Calculation of Profit (or Loss)) above. The net paying Party will make a payment pursuant to this Section 6.1.9 (True- up). Payments pursuant to this Article 6 will be made in accordance with the provisions of Article 7. |
6.1.10. | Calculation of Sales Force Costs. Sales force FTE costs for each of the Parties will be determined by including in GSK Costs or Amgen Costs, as the case may be, a pro rata portion of each Party’s sales representative’s FTE Rate as follows: (i) one hundred percent (100%) if such sales representative Details only Ivory with the approval of the JSC, (ii) sixty percent (60%) if such sales representative Details two (2) products with Ivory as the First Position Detail or Details only Ivory without the approval of the JSC, (iii) forty percent (40%) if such sales representative Details two (2) products with Ivory as the Second Position Detail, (iv) thirty percent (30%) if such sales representative Details three (3) or more products with Ivory as the Second Position Detail, and (v) ten percent (10%) if such sales representative Details three (3) or more products with Ivory as the Third Position Detail. For the avoidance of doubt, if a sales representative Details Ivory in more than one (1) position, then a pro rata share of the foregoing percentages, to be calculated based on the time spent by such sales representative on Detailing Ivory in each such position, will be included in GSK Costs or Amgen Costs, as the case may be. For periods in which sales representatives are performing activities in support of the collaboration but are |
6.2. | Example. The Profit (Loss) True-up Schedule sets forth an example of calculation and true-up of the quarterly Collaboration Profit (Loss). |
6.3. | Calculation of Net Revenues. In calculating Ivory Net Revenues for the purposes of this Article 6 (Profit/Expense Sharing): |
6.3.1. | Free Products. Any disposal of Ivory at no charge for, or use of Ivory without charge in, clinical or preclinical trials, given as free samples, or distributed at no charge to patients unable to purchase the same will not be included in Ivory Net Revenues. |
6.3.2. | Bundled Products. Where Ivory is sold in a Bundle, then for the purposes of calculating the Ivory Net Revenues under this Agreement, such Ivory will be deemed to be sold for an amount equal to X ÷ (X + Y) × Z, where: X is the average sales price during the applicable reporting period generally achieved for such dosage form of Ivory in the Collaboration Scope; Y is the sum of the average sales price during the applicable reporting period generally achieved in the Collaboration Territory, when sold alone, by each pharmaceutical product in the relevant dosage form included in the Bundle (excluding Ivory); and Z equals the price at which the Bundle was actually sold. In the event that Ivory or one or more of the other pharmaceutical products in the Bundle are not sold separately in the relevant dosage form, the Ivory Net Revenues from the sale of such Bundle will be reasonably allocated between Ivory and the other product(s) in such Bundle based upon their relative values and the JSC will determine an equitable fair market price to apply to such bundled Ivory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Ivory will not be sold in a Bundle if such sale would violate Applicable Law. |
6.4. | Attribution of Costs. Unless otherwise set forth herein, for costs not specific to the Collaboration Scope or the activities to be performed hereunder (including FTE costs for personnel not solely devoted to Ivory in the Collaboration Scope (but not including sales force FTE costs for sales force Detailing Ivory, which will be calculated in accordance with Section 6.1.10 (Calculation of Sales Force Costs)), the portion of such costs allocable to the collaboration may be determined based upon percent of effort, resource utilization or other reasonable measure, in each case calculated and allocated in accordance with the applicable Party’s accounting procedures, consistently applied. For clarity, no particular cost will be allocated to the collaboration more than once. |
6.5. | Collaboration Losses. Each Party understands the risks attendant to the business of Ivory within the Collaboration Scope. Losses related to the Collaboration Scope that arise out of the development, manufacture, regulatory activities, commercialization or other exploitation of Ivory undertaken by or on behalf of a Party in the exercise of its rights or performance of its obligations under this Agreement in good faith (“Collaboration Losses”) will be charged to the Collaboration Profit (Loss); provided, that Collaboration Losses will not include Losses that are: (i) caused by a breach of this Agreement; or (ii) subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 13.1 (Indemnity by GSK), Section 13.2 (Indemnity by Amgen) or Section 13.3 (Specific Indemnity) |
7. | PAYMENTS |
7.1. | Appropriate Measure of Value. Each of the Parties acknowledges that the value provided by the other hereunder is comprised of many related items, including performance of various services, access to development and commercial expertise, clinical data and other financial and non-financial consideration and that the amount of the Inventorship Margin, and the ratio of profit and expense sharing set forth herein are intended to capture such value as an aggregate. Therefore the increase, decrease or lapse of any particular items or rights (including Patents), including allocation of operational responsibilities between the Parties, will not affect the amount of such payment, or the ratio of profit and expense sharing and the Parties agree that both the amount and duration of such payment or the ratio of profit and expense sharing are reasonable. |
7.2. | No Other Compensation. Other than as explicitly set forth (and as applicable) in this Agreement, neither Party will be obligated to pay any additional fees, milestone payments, royalties or other payments of any kind to the other hereunder. |
7.3. | Payment Method. All payments made hereunder between the Parties will be made in U.S. Dollars except as set forth in Section 7.5 (Blocked Currency) or as otherwise agreed by the Parties. Each Party will pay all sums due hereunder by wire transfer, or electronic funds transfer (EFT) in immediately available funds. If the EFT option is chosen by Amgen or GSK, a completed electronic funds transfer form will be provided in a timeframe that facilitates timely payment. Each Party will promptly notify the other Party of the appropriate account information to facilitate any such payments. |
7.4. | Audits. Each Party will keep complete and accurate records pertaining to the activities to be conducted hereunder in sufficient detail to permit the other Party (the “Auditing Party”) to confirm the accuracy of all payments due hereunder, including the Tail Payments set forth in Section 14.11, and such records will be open (in such form as may be available or reasonably requested) to inspection for three (3) years following |
7.5. | Blocked Currency. If Applicable Law in the Collaboration Territory prevent the prompt remittance of any payments with respect to sales therein, the paying Party will have the right and option to make such payments by depositing the amount thereof in local currency to the other Party’s account in a bank or depository in such country. |
7.6. | Withholding. If Applicable Law requires a Party to pay or withhold Taxes with respect to any payment to be made pursuant to this Agreement, the paying Party will notify the other in writing of such payment or withholding requirements prior to making the payment and provide such assistance to the receiving Party, including the provision of such documentation as may be required by a tax authority, as may be reasonably necessary in such Party’s efforts to claim an exemption from or reduction of such Taxes. Each Party will withhold any Taxes required by law to be withheld from the amount due, remit such Taxes to the appropriate tax authority, and furnish the other Party with proof of payment of such Taxes promptly following payment thereof. If Taxes are paid to a tax authority, each Party will provide the other such assistance as is reasonably required to obtain a refund of Taxes withheld, or obtain a credit with respect to Taxes paid. In the event that the governing tax authority retroactively determines that a payment made by a Party to the other pursuant to this Agreement should have been subject to withholding (or to additional withholding) for Taxes, and such Party (the “Withholding Party”) remits such withholding Taxes to the tax authority, the Withholding Party will have the right to offset such amount, including any interest and penalties that may be imposed thereon, against future payment obligations of the Withholding Party under this Agreement (or, at the option of the Withholding Party, the Withholding Party will have the right to invoice the other Party for such amount, and the other Party will pay such amount within sixty (60) days of the receipt of such invoice); provided however, that the Withholding Party may also pursue reimbursement by any other available remedy. |
7.7. | VAT. All payments due a Party pursuant to this Agreement will be paid exclusive of any VAT and other indirect Taxes (which, if applicable, will be payable by the paying Party upon receipt of a valid VAT invoice). If such amounts of VAT are refunded by the applicable Governmental Authority or other fiscal authority subsequent to payment, the Party receiving such refund will transfer such amount to the paying Party within forty-five (45) days of receipt. |
7.8. | Late Payment. Any payments or portions thereof due hereunder which are not paid when due will bear interest at the Contract Interest Rate, compounded annually, calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent. This Section 7.8 (Late Payment) will in no way limit any other remedies available to either Party. |
7.9. | Change in Accounting Periods. From time to time, either of the Parties may change its accounting and financial reporting practices from calendar quarters and calendar years to fiscal quarters and fiscal years or vice versa. If a Party notifies the other in writing of a change in its accounting and financial reporting practices from calendar quarters and calendar years to fiscal quarters and fiscal years or vice versa, then thereafter, beginning with the period specified in the notice, the Parties will cooperate to determine a way to report and reconcile each Party’s accounting periods so as to facilitate payments to be made hereunder. |
8. | DISTRACTING PRODUCTS |
8.1.1. | GSK will not, during the Term and for one (1) year thereafter, itself, through its Affiliates or any other entity which is controlled by GSK, conduct or participate in, or advise, assist or enable any Third Party to conduct or participate in, any Distracting Program; |
8.1.2. | Amgen will not, during the Term, itself, through its Affiliates or any other entity which is controlled by Amgen, conduct or participate in, or advise, assist or enable any Third Party to conduct or participate in, any Distracting Program in the Collaboration Territory. |
8.2. | Post-Effective Date Affiliates. If a Party enters into a Distracting Transaction then it will provide notice to the other Party, within five (5) business days of the closing of the Distracting Transaction, describing in reasonable detail, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and without disclosing any proprietary information, the Distracting Program. During the pendency of any potential Distracting Transaction, and until the provisions of Section 8.3 (Termination or Divestiture) are fully implemented, the Party entering into the Distracting Transaction will Segregate the Distracting Program from Ivory. |
8.3. | Termination or Divestiture. The notice provided pursuant to Section 8.2 (Post- Effective Date Affiliates) will include a notification as to whether the Party entering into the Distracting Transaction intends to Divest or terminate the Distracting Program in accordance with this Section 8.3 (Termination or Divestiture): |
8.3.1. | Divestiture. If a Party elects to Divest the Distracting Program, then it will Segregate such Distracting Program from the Ivory program and Divest such Distracting Program within six (6) months of the closing of the Distracting Transaction. The divesting Party and its Affiliates (including the Affiliate with the Distracting Program) will not directly or indirectly assert any intellectual property or proprietary right embodied in the Distracting Program and under the control of the divesting Party or its Affiliates as a result of the Distracting Transaction, against or with respect to Ivory or otherwise obstruct the Parties’ (or their Affiliates, sublicensees’, contractors’ or agents’) efforts under this Agreement or the Expansion Agreement or, if GSK is the divesting Party, Amgen’s (or its Affiliates, sublicensees’, contractors’ or agents’) efforts with respect to Ivory outside the Collaboration Scope. If the Party fails to complete a divestiture within six (6) months of the closing of the Distracting Transaction, then such Party will be deemed to have chosen to terminate the Distracting Program, effective as of such six (6) month anniversary, and will promptly comply with the requirements of Section 8.3.2 (Termination); provided, that if at the expiration of such six (6) month period, the divesting Party has agreed terms with a Third Party to Divest the Distracting Program then such six (6) month period will be extended as required for the divesting Party and such Third Party to consummate the transaction, but in no event will such extension exceed an additional ninety (90) days. |
8.3.2. | Termination. If a Party elects to terminate such Distracting Program, it will terminate all activities of such Distracting Program within ninety (90) days of the closing of the Distracting Transaction, during which period it will Segregate such Distracting Program from the Ivory program. The terminating Party and its Affiliates will not directly or indirectly assert any intellectual property or proprietary right of the Distracting Program against or with respect to Ivory or otherwise to obstruct the Parties’ (or their Affiliates, sublicensees’, contractors’ or agents’) efforts under this Agreement or the Expansion Agreement or if GSK is the terminating Party, Amgen’s (or its Affiliates, sublicensees’, contractors’ or agents’) efforts with respect to Ivory outside the Collaboration Scope during such termination period or thereafter. |
8.4. | Pre-Effective Date Programs. |
8.4.1. | GSK has advised Amgen that GSK is currently a party to the Roche Agreement. |
8.4.2. | For the avoidance of doubt, Amgen’s current and future anti-sclerostin programs will not be considered “Distracting Programs.” |
8.5. | Reasonable Restrictions. Each of the Parties acknowledges the provisions of this Article 8 (Distracting Products) are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the other Party and to encourage the free sharing of information between the Parties with respect to Ivory, and each of the Parties agrees not to contest such limitations in any proceeding. Each Party acknowledges that the other Party would not have entered into this Agreement absent the restrictions set forth in this Article 8 (Distracting Products) and that a breach or threatened breach of this Article 8 (Distracting Products) would be likely to result in irreparable harm to such Party for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Therefore, the Parties will be entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction injunctive relief, specific performance, and an equitable accounting of any earnings, profits or benefits arising out of any such breach without the requirement to post a bond or to demonstrate irreparable harm, balancing of harms, consideration of the public interest or inadequacy of monetary damages as a remedy. Nothing in this Section 8.5 (Reasonable Restrictions) is intended or will be construed to limit in any way either Party’s right to equitable relief or any other remedy for breach of this or any other provision of this Agreement. |
8.6. | Amgen Restrictions. During the Term, Amgen and its Affiliates will not Detail Ivory in the Excluded Field in the Collaboration Territory in any presentation that is not indicated for use in the Excluded Field in the Collaboration Territory. |
8.7. | Segregation of Programs. GSK will Segregate any Distracting Product being developed or manufactured by GSK from Ivory. |
9. | INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY |
9.1. | Invention Ownership. Each Party will own all right, title, and interest in and to all Inventions that are made by or on behalf of such Party, solely or independent of the other Party, and all intellectual property rights related thereto (including in the case of GSK, GSK Inventions), and any Invention that is jointly made will be owned jointly by the Parties (each a “Joint Invention”). Inventorship will be determined according to United States Patent Law (without reference to any conflict of law principles). |
9.2. | Copyright Ownership; Certain Confidential Information. Except as set forth below, each Party will own all right, title, and interest in and to all Copyrights created pursuant to this Agreement that are authored by or on behalf of such Party, solely or independent of the other Party, and all intellectual property rights related thereto; provided that any Copyrights pertaining to Ivory (including any clinical trial protocols, investigator brochures and informed consent forms, and including the product labeling, package inserts, core data sheet and all marketing and promotional materials and including the Brand Book) will be owned solely by Amgen. The Parties will jointly own all right, title, and interest in and to all Copyrights that are authored by or on the behalf of the Parties jointly; provided that any Copyrights pertaining to Ivory will be owned solely by Amgen whether created jointly by the Parties or by either Party independent of the other Party. In addition, all Confidential Information to the extent pertaining to Ivory will be the Confidential Information of Amgen (and not of GSK), regardless of which Party created such information (and will not be subject to the exclusion under Section 11.1.1 or 11.1.4). Any Copyrights created by GSK or its Affiliates and specified in this Section 9.2 (Copyright Ownership) as being owned by Amgen will be considered a work for hire. To the extent any such Copyright is not considered a work for hire, GSK and/or such Affiliate will assign and does hereby assign to Amgen all of its right, title and interest in and to such Copyright and intellectual property rights therein and thereto. Each Party will duly execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the other all such further papers, including assignments and applications for copyright registration or renewal, as may be reasonably requested and/or necessary to enable such other Party to publish or protect said Copyrights in any and all countries and to vest title to said Copyrights in such other Party (or its nominees, or its or their successor or assigns) in accordance with this Section 9.2 (Copyright Ownership), and will render such reasonable assistance, at such other Party’s expense, as such other Party may reasonably require in any proceeding or litigation involving said Copyrights. |
9.3. | Joint Ownership. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, it is understood that neither Party will have any obligation to obtain any approval or consent of, nor pay a share of the proceeds to or account to, the other Party to practice, enforce, license, assign or otherwise exploit Inventions or intellectual property (including Copyrights) owned jointly by the Parties hereunder, and each Party hereby waives any right it may have under the laws of any jurisdiction to require such approval, consent or accounting. Each Party agrees to cooperate with the other Party, as reasonably requested, and to take such actions as may be required to give effect to this Section 9.3 (Joint Ownership) in a particular country within the Collaboration Territory. |
9.4. | License Grant by Amgen. Amgen hereby grants and causes its Affiliates to grant to GSK and its Affiliates during the Term a non-exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free license |
9.5. | License Grant by GSK. GSK hereby grants and causes its Affiliates to grant to Amgen and its Affiliates a non-exclusive, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free, world-wide license under all Know-How and Patents owned or controlled as of the Effective Date or during the Term (including GSK Inventions) by GSK or its Affiliates solely to use, make, have made, sell, offer for sale and import Ivory for all uses, and for performing Amgen’s rights and obligations hereunder. Such license is sublicensable by Amgen or its Affiliates solely to Third Parties to whom Amgen or its Affiliates also grant a license to Know-How or Patents owned or controlled by Amgen claiming Ivory, its formulation or the use thereof; provided, that such sublicense will terminate no later than the date on which the license to the Third Party to Amgen Know-How or Patents described above terminates. |
9.6. | Prosecution and Maintenance. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.14 (Patent Coordinators), Amgen will control, itself or through outside counsel, and have final decision making authority (after consultation with GSK in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement) with respect to the Prosecution and Maintenance of the Patents and Product Trademarks within the Ivory Intellectual Property in the Collaboration Territory (the “Ivory Patents and Trademarks”), and with respect to preparation and filing for any patent term extensions or similar protections therefor. Through the Patent Coordinators: (i) Amgen will provide GSK with copies of and an opportunity to review and comment upon the text of the applications relating to the Ivory Patents and Trademarks at least thirty (30) days before filing; provided, that if it is not reasonably practicable to provide such application in such thirty (30) day period, then Amgen will provide either a draft copy of such application or a statement of intent to file such application in such thirty (30) day period; (ii) Amgen will provide GSK with a copy of each submission made to and document received from a patent authority, court or other tribunal regarding any Ivory Patent and Trademark reasonably promptly after making such filing or receiving such document, including a copy of each application for each Ivory Patent and Trademark as filed together with notice of its filing date and application number; (iii) Amgen will keep GSK advised of the status of all material communications, actual and prospective filings or submissions regarding the Ivory Patents and Trademarks, and will give GSK copies of and an opportunity to review and comment on any such material communications, filings and submissions proposed to be sent to any patent authority or judicial body; and (iv) Amgen will consider in good faith GSK’s comments on the communications, filings and submissions for the Ivory Patents and Trademarks. With respect to any filings or other materials provided to GSK under this Section 9.6 (Prosecution and Maintenance), Amgen will have the right to redact any manufacturing information and any information relating to any product other than Ivory from any such filings and materials. |
9.7. | Defense and Settlement of Third Party Claims of Infringement. If a Third Party asserts that Patents, Know-How or other rights owned or controlled by it are infringed by the activities hereunder of either of the Parties, then defense of such claim (an |
9.8. | Enforcement. Except as expressly set forth in this Section 9.7 (Enforcement), each Party will retain all its rights to control the enforcement of its own intellectual property. Amgen will have the sole right to enforce the Ivory Intellectual Property. GSK will reasonably assist Amgen with respect to any such enforcement in the Collaboration Territory, including, in the event that it is determined that the GSK is an indispensable Party to such action, by being named as a Party in such action, and cooperate in any such action at Amgen’s request. Without limiting the foregoing, Amgen will keep GSK advised of all material communications, actual and prospective filings or submissions regarding such action, and will provide GSK copies of and an opportunity to review and comment on any such material communications, filings and submissions (provided that Amgen will have the right to redact any manufacturing information and any information relating to any product other than Ivory from any such materials). All Recoveries will be retained by Amgen, but included in Ivory Net Revenues for the period in which such Recovery is made. |
9.9. | Patent Term Extensions. GSK will provide reasonable assistance to Amgen in connection with obtaining supplemental protection certificates for Patents within the Ivory Intellectual Property or otherwise licensed or assigned hereunder as determined by the Patent Coordinators. To the extent reasonably and legally required to obtain any such supplemental protection certificates in a particular country, GSK will make available to Amgen copies of all necessary documentation to enable Amgen to use the same for the purpose of obtaining the supplemental protection certificates in such country. |
9.10. | Employee Agreements. Prior to beginning work relating to any aspect of the subject matter of this Agreement and/or being given access to Ivory Intellectual Property or Confidential Information of the other Party, each employee, consultant and/or agent of Amgen and GSK will have signed or will be bound to a commercially reasonable non- disclosure and/or invention assignment agreement. Each Party will be responsible for any compensation or payment to its employees, contractors or agents in connection with the invention of any patent right. |
9.11. | Trademarks. |
9.11.1. | Title. Amgen will own all right, title and interest in and to the Product Trademarks, and GSK agrees to assign and hereby assigns to Amgen all right title and interest that GSK has or may acquire in connection with the Product Trademarks. All goodwill arising out of the use of the Product Trademarks or otherwise related to Ivory will inure to the benefit of Amgen. GSK will not, |
9.11.2. | Required Use and Compliance. |
9.11.2.1. | Promotional Materials for Ivory in the Collaboration Scope will display the Amgen Housemarks and the GSK Housemarks to the extent allowed by Applicable Law and in accordance with the Brand Plan.

9.11.2.2. | GSK agrees that it and its Affiliates will: (i) ensure that each use of the Product Trademarks and/or the Amgen Housemarks by GSK is accompanied by an acknowledgement that the Product Trademarks and Amgen Housemarks are owned by Amgen; (ii) not use the Product Trademarks or Amgen Housemarks in a way that might materially prejudice their distinctiveness or validity or the goodwill of Amgen therein; and (iii) not use any trademarks or trade names so resembling any of the Product Trademarks or Amgen Housemarks as to be likely to cause confusion or deception. Amgen agrees that it and its Affiliates will ensure that each use of the GSK Housemarks by Amgen is accompanied by an acknowledgement that the GSK Housemarks are owned by GSK. |
9.11.3. | Licenses. |
9.11.3.1. | To GSK. Amgen hereby grants to GSK a non-exclusive, royalty- free license to use the Product Trademarks and Amgen Housemarks as set forth in the Promotional Materials and other materials provided to it by Amgen, solely to Detail Ivory in the Collaboration Scope in accordance with the Brand Plan, Country Plans and this Agreement during the period that GSK has rights to Detail Ivory hereunder. GSK’s right to use the Product Trademarks and the Amgen Housemarks will terminate, on a country-by-country basis, when GSK’s rights to Detail Ivory in such country are terminated or expire. GSK will take all such steps as Amgen may reasonably request to give effect to the termination of the license to the Product Trademarks and Amgen Housemarks in such country and to record any documents that may be required to evidence the termination of such license. |
9.11.3.2. | To Amgen. GSK hereby grants to Amgen a non-exclusive, royalty- free license to use the GSK Housemarks as set forth in the Promotional Materials solely to Detail Ivory in the Collaboration Scope in accordance with the Brand Plan, Country Plans and this Agreement.

9.11.4. | Respect of Trademarks. GSK will not have, assert or acquire any right, title or interest in or to any of Product Trademarks or Amgen Housemarks or the goodwill pertaining thereto, and Amgen will not have, assert or acquire any right, title or interest in or to the GSK Housemarks or the goodwill pertaining thereto, in each case by means of entering into or performing under this Agreement, except in each case for the limited licenses explicitly provided in this Agreement. |
9.11.5. | Infringement Amgen will monitor the Product Trademarks against infringing uses within the Collaboration Scope. GSK will give Amgen prompt notice of any infringement or threatened infringement of any of the Product Trademarks of which it becomes aware. Amgen will determine in its sole discretion what action, if any, to take in response to any such infringement or threatened infringement of any Product Trademark. |
9.12. | Community Of Interest. From time-to-time it may be desirable or beneficial to the Parties to share between each other and their respective outside counsel privileged and/or work product information with respect to certain Patents and/or Know-How related to Ivory, and legal matters relating thereto, and that they share a common interest in the prosecution, defense and enforcement of such Patents and Know-How, including such Patents and Know-How owned or controlled by Third Parties. Therefore, the Parties agree to execute the Joint Community Of Interest Privilege Agreement (attached hereto as the Privilege Agreement Schedule) concurrently with this Collaboration Agreement. |
10. | REGULATORY AND SAFETY |
10.1. | Regulatory Matters. |
10.1.1. | Regulatory Communication and Filings. Amgen will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to prepare, submit and maintain all Regulatory Filings and to obtain all Regulatory Approvals for Ivory in the Collaboration Scope, including making all Regulatory Filings necessary for the development of Ivory in accordance with the Development Plan. Amgen will use Commercially |
10.1.2. | Regulatory Meetings. Amgen will consult with GSK reasonably in advance of the date of any anticipated meeting with a Governmental Authority in the Collaboration Scope and will consider in good faith any timely recommendations made by GSK in preparation for such meeting. Amgen will consider in good faith permitting GSK to attend particular meetings between Amgen and the applicable Governmental Authority that pertain to the Collaboration Scope. Where Amgen so agrees, it will request that the applicable Governmental Authority allow at least one (1) GSK representative to attend, as an observer, such meetings; provided, that the foregoing will not apply to informal meetings or teleconferences that are unscheduled or intended by the Governmental Authority to be between it and Amgen representatives only (such as interactions with EMEA rapporteurs). Amgen will timely inform GSK of any such meetings. GSK will strictly follow Amgen’s instructions with respect to any such meeting, and will not discuss the contents of any such meeting with any Governmental Authority except as required by Applicable Law or authorized by Amgen in writing. |
10.1.3. | GSK Obligations. Except as expressly provided in Section 10.1.1 (Regulatory Communications and Filings) GSK will cooperate with Amgen, at its request, with respect to any regulatory matters related to Ivory. GSK will not without the consent of Amgen or unless so required by Applicable Law (and then only pursuant to the terms of this Section 10.1.1 (Regulatory Communication and Filings)), correspond or communicate with any Governmental Authority, whether within the Collaboration Territory or otherwise, concerning Ivory or otherwise take any action with any Governmental Authority concerning any authorization or permission under which Ivory is sold or any application for the |
10.1.4. | Labeling and Packaging Materials. Amgen will have sole authority and responsibility, and will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to, seek and/or obtain any necessary governmental approvals of any labeling, package inserts or packaging for Ivory and Promotional Materials, and to determine whether the same requires governmental approval; provided, that Amgen will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain any Governmental Authority approval required to include the GSK Housemarks on the labeling, packaging and package inserts for Ivory in the Collaboration Scope within six (6) months of the Effective Date. All filings and communications with Governmental Authorities in connection therewith will remain under the control of Amgen. No labeling, package inserts, or packaging for Ivory may be used or distributed by GSK unless such labeling, package inserts or packaging has been approved in advance by Amgen. GSK will not modify or alter any labeling, package inserts or packaging for Ivory, without the express prior approval of such modification or alteration by Amgen. Amgen will provide GSK with prompt notice of, and copies of, any changes in the Ivory labeling, package inserts or packaging. |

10.3.2. | Recalls or Other Corrective Action. Amgen will have the sole right to undertake, and will make all decisions with respect to, any recall, market withdrawals, field alerts or any other corrective action (including letters to health care professionals) related to Ivory.

Without prejudice to Amgen’s indemnity obligations pursuant to Section 13.2 (Indemnity by Amgen), Amgen will be under no liability whatsoever to compensate GSK or make any other payment to GSK based on any decision to recall, initiate a market withdrawal, issue a field alert or take any other corrective action with respect to Ivory, unless such action results from Amgen’s failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement. |
10.3.3. | Returns. If any quantities of Ivory are returned to GSK, GSK will promptly notify Amgen and ship them to the facility designated by Amgen.

11.3. | Confidential Treatment of Terms and Conditions.

11.5. | Prior Agreement. This Agreement supersedes the Confidential Disclosure Agreement between the Parties dated January 28, 2009, including any written requests thereunder (the “Prior Agreement”) with respect to information disclosed thereunder relating to Ivory and activities related thereto.

Amgen will keep the relevant committee or team informed of its general publication strategy and presentation calendar. In addition, Amgen will deliver to GSK a copy of any proposed written publication or outline of presentation with respect to Ivory in the Collaboration Scope in advance of submission for publication or presentation at least thirty (30) days in advance of submission (or, where a copy of such publication or presentation is not available at such time, a draft or outline of such publication or a description of such presentation), and GSK will have the right to: (i) require a delay in submission of not more than sixty (60) days to enable patent applications protecting each Party’s rights in such information to be filed; and (ii) prohibit disclosure of any of its Confidential Information in any such proposed publication or presentation.

The |
11.8. | Injunctive Relief. Given the nature of the Confidential Information and the competitive damage that may result to a Party upon unauthorized disclosure, use or transfer of its Confidential Information to any Third Party, the Parties agree that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Article 11 (Confidentiality, Publications and Press Releases). In addition to all other remedies, a Party is entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief (without the need to post a bond) as a remedy for any breach or threatened breach of this Article 11 (Confidentiality, Publications and Press Releases). |

Subject to the remainder of this Article 13 (Indemnification), GSK will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Amgen, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, “Amgen Indemnitees”), at GSK’s cost and expense, from and against any and all liabilities, losses, costs, damages, fees or expenses (including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees incurred by or on behalf of any of the indemnitees until such time as the indemnification obligation is acknowledged and assumed hereunder with respect to the applicable claim) (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of any Third Party Claims brought against any Amgen Indemnitee to the extent such Losses result from: (a) the negligence or willful misconduct of GSK or its Affiliates (or any employees, agents or representatives of any of them (other than Amgen or its Affiliates)) in performing under this Agreement; or (b) a breach by GSK of this Agreement, including the failure of GSK’s representations or warranties in Article 12 (Representations and Warranties) to be true in any material respect but excluding such Losses to the extent they arise from (w), (x), (y) or (z) below in Section 13.2 (Indemnity by Amgen). |
13.2. | Indemnity by Amgen. Subject to the remainder of this Article 13 (Indemnification), Amgen will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless GSK, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, “GSK Indemnitees”), at Amgen’s cost and expense, from and against any and all Losses arising out of any Third Party Claims brought against any GSK Indemnitee to the extent such Losses: (w) result from personal injury (regardless of theory of liability) arising out of administration of Ivory in clinical trials conducted by or on behalf of Amgen or its Affiliates and for which dosing of patients was completed before the Effective Date; (x) result from acts or omissions of any Amgen Indemnitee with respect to Ivory outside the Collaboration Scope (other than activities conducted for the benefit of the Collaboration Scope, or within the Expansion Scope or for the benefit of the Expansion Scope unless otherwise provided in the Expansion Agreement), including the development, manufacturing, marketing, advertising, promotion, distribution, selling, storage, handling or usage of Ivory outside the Collaboration Scope anywhere in the world; (y) result from the negligence or willful misconduct of Amgen or its Affiliates (or any employees, agents or representatives of any of them (other than GSK or its Affiliates)): (i) in performing under this Agreement; or (ii) in performing activities with respect to Ivory prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement; or (z) result from a breach by Amgen of this Agreement, including the failure of Amgen’s representations or warranties in Article 12 (Representations and Warranties) to be true in any material respect, but excluding such Losses to the extent they arise from Section 13.1(a), (b) or (c). |
13.3. | Specific Indemnity. GSK will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Amgen Indemnitees, at GSK’s cost and expense, from and against any and all Losses arising out of any Roche Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Amgen will be entitled to be indemnified by GSK under this Section 13.3 (Specific Indemnity) with respect to any Loss only to the extent Amgen is not indemnified with respect to such Loss pursuant to Section 13.1 (Indemnity by GSK), |
13.4. | Claim for Indemnification. Whenever any Third Party Claim or Loss arises for which a GSK Indemnitee or an Amgen Indemnitee (the “Indemnified Party”) may seek indemnification under this Article 13 (Indemnification), the Indemnified Party will promptly notify the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the Third Party Claim or Loss and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for the Third Party Claim; provided that the failure by an Indemnified Party to give such notice or to otherwise meet its obligations under this Section 13.4 (Claim for Indemnification) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnifying Party will have exclusive control of the defense and settlement of all Third Party Claims for which it is responsible for indemnification and will assume defense thereof at its own expense promptly upon notice of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party will not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim for which it is entitled to indemnification without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, unless the Indemnifying Party is in breach of its obligation to defend hereunder. In no event will the Indemnifying Party settle any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party if such settlement does not include a complete release from liability on such Third Party Claim or if such settlement would involve undertaking an obligation by the Indemnified Party other than the payment of money, would bind or impair the Indemnified Party, or includes any admission of wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party or that any intellectual property or proprietary right of the Indemnified Party is invalid or unenforceable. The Indemnified Party will reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and will make available to the Indemnifying Party reasonably requested information under the control of the Indemnified Party, which information will be subject to Article 11 (Confidentiality, Publications and Press Releases). The Indemnifying Party will permit the Indemnified Party to participate in (but not to control) the Third Party Claim through counsel of its choosing to the extent it has the ability to do so (at the Indemnified Party’s expense). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and to control its own defense of the applicable Third Party Claim if: (i) there are or may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable; provided that, in no event will the Indemnifying Party be required to pay fees and expenses under this sentence for more than one (1) firm of attorneys in any jurisdiction in any one (1) legal action or group of related legal actions. |
13.5. | Defense of Third Party Claims. Except as otherwise provided in Section 13.4 (Claim for Indemnification), each Party (such Party referred to as the “Defending Party”) will have the sole right, but not the obligation, to defend against any Third Party Claims made against it with respect to its activities hereunder. Each Party will notify the other Party (the “Assisting Party”) as promptly as practicable if any Third Party Claim is |
13.6. | Insurance. Each of the Parties will, at their own respective expense (and not subject to cost sharing hereunder) procure and maintain during the Term, insurance policies adequate to cover their obligations hereunder and consistent with the normal business practices of prudent pharmaceutical companies of similar size and scope (or reasonable |

14.1. | Term. This Agreement will become effective on the Effective Date and will terminate at the end of the Term unless and until sooner terminated pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. |
14.2. | Termination for Breach. |
14.2.1. | In the event of a material breach of this Agreement, the non-breaching Party will have the right to terminate this Agreement (either as a whole or in the country or countries in which such breach occurred, at the terminating Party’s option) by written notice to the breaching Party, which notice will specify the nature of such breach in reasonable detail. Such termination will become effective on the date specified in the notice (which will not be earlier than sixty (60) days after the delivery thereof to the breaching Party or, in the case of a failure to pay amounts due hereunder, thirty (30) days) unless, during the sixty (60) day (or thirty (30) day) period after delivery of such notice to the breaching Party, the breaching Party has cured such breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the non-breaching Party. |
14.2.2. | Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.2.1, the following will apply in the event of multiple breaches by the same Party: (i) in the event of three (3) material breaches of this Agreement by the same Party within a thirty-six (36) month period, the non-breaching Party will have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the breaching Party, which notice will specify the nature of such third breach in reasonable detail, effective (regardless of whether such third breach is cured) as of the date specified in such notice (which will not be earlier than thirty (30) days from receipt thereof by the breaching Party), and (ii) if a Party commits at least two (2) material breaches of this Agreement and such breaches are with respect to the same obligation or activity hereunder, then the non-breaching Party will have the right, but not the obligation, to call a special meeting of the JDC with respect to development breaches or the JSC with respect to any other breach (a “Special Meeting”), by written notice to the breaching Party. Such notice will state with particularity the obligations that the non-breaching Party believes have not been satisfied and the basis for such belief. The Special Meeting will be convened within ten (10) business days of the breaching Party’s receipt of such notice. At the Special Meeting, the JSC or JDC, as applicable, will discuss the non-breaching Party’s concerns, the breaching Party’s efforts in such area of concerns and any additional actions the breaching Party should take to alleviate the non-breaching Party’s concerns. The JSC or JDC, as applicable, will develop a plan describing the actions that the Parties reasonably believe the breaching Party should take to meet its applicable obligations under the Agreement (the “Remediation Plan”); provided, that the Remediation Plan may provide that the non-breaching Party will assume responsibility for such obligation or activity and the breaching Party will cooperate with the non-breaching Party to effect such transition to the |
14.3. | Termination for Insolvency. Either Party will have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice, if: (i) the other Party becomes insolvent; (ii) the other Party files a petition in bankruptcy, or if an involuntary petition in bankruptcy is filed against the other Party and such involuntary petition is not dismissed within seventy-five (75) days and the other Party (a) fails to assume this Agreement in any such bankruptcy proceeding within thirty (30) days after filing or (b) assumes and assigns this Agreement to a Third Party, or (iii) a receiver or guardian has been appointed for the other Party who is not discharged within seventy-five (75) days after appointment. |
14.4. | Early Termination by Amgen. Amgen will have the right to terminate this Agreement by at least eighteen (18) months prior written notice to GSK (a “Termination Buyout Notice”), such termination to be effective no sooner than January 1, 2021 with respect to either: (i) all countries in the Collaboration Territory; or (ii) one, any or all of the Russian Federation, Mexico, Australia and/or New Zealand. In the event of any such termination, Amgen will pay GSK the fair market value of GSK’s remaining interest so terminated (i.e., a one-time payment of the risk-adjusted net present value of the net profits GSK would be expected to receive from such terminated interest over the remainder of the Term (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Tail Period) in the event the Agreement had not been so terminated with respect thereto (a “Termination Buyout Payment”) (but not less than zero)). Within forty-five (45) days following Amgen’s provision of the Termination Buyout Notice, the Parties will meet and negotiate the amount of such Termination Buyout Payment. If the Parties agree on the amount of the Termination Buyout Payment within ninety (90) days following the provision of the Termination Buyout Notice, then Amgen will pay GSK the Termination Buyout Payment within thirty (30) days following the effective date of such termination. If the Parties fail to agree on an amount of a Termination Buyout Payment within ninety (90) days following the provision of the Termination Buyout Notice, then GSK will propose to Amgen in writing four (4) Third Party valuators (two (2) top-tier, internationally-recognized investment banks and two (2) top-tier, internationally recognized accounting firms) with relevant expertise to determine the appropriate amount for the Termination Buyout Payment. Within ten (10) days of the receipt of such proposal, Amgen will select one (1) of the proposed valuators by written notice to GSK and the Parties will engage the selected valuator to determine the amount of the Termination Buyout Payment, at Amgen’s sole cost. Each of the Parties will provide to such valuator such information as it deems pertinent for the valuation and any information requested by such valuator. Such selected valuator will promptly (and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the selection of such valuator) determine the Termination Buyout Payment amount and provide notice of the Termination Buyout Payment amount (and underlying assumptions and methodology) to each of the Parties. Amgen will have thirty (30) days from receipt of notice of the Termination Buyout Payment amount from the valuator to provide written notice to GSK of whether |
14.5. | Termination Discussion. If the sales of Ivory during any three (3) year period are less than fifty (50%) percent of the total amount forecast for such period (as set forth in the Sales Forecast Schedule) (or if either Party reasonably determines that facts and circumstances pertaining at any time during the Term indicate a very high likelihood that the foregoing will occur, including by reason of label or other access limitations or safety events), then the Parties will meet and discuss whether it may be appropriate to terminate this Agreement, provided that no such termination will be effective unless expressly agreed in writing by the Parties. |
14.6. | Valid Safety Issue. Either Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice following either: (i) the voluntary withdrawal by Amgen of Ivory from any country in the Collaboration Territory as a result of a final decision by Amgen after discussion at the CRC, that Ivory is harmful under normal conditions of use or the risk- benefit balance is not positive under normal conditions of use; (ii) the voluntary withdrawal by Amgen of Ivory for a period of two hundred (200) consecutive days from any country in the Collaboration Territory as a result of a decision by Amgen after discussion at the CRC, that Ivory is harmful under normal conditions of use or the risk- benefit balance is not positive under normal conditions of use; (iii) the second complete recall by Amgen of Ivory from any country in the Collaboration Scope within a two (2) year period as a result of a determination by Amgen after discussion at the CRC, that Ivory is harmful under normal conditions of use or the risk-benefit balance is not positive under normal conditions of use; (iv) the final decision to withdraw Regulatory Approval of Ivory with respect to the Collaboration Field by the European Commission (or a successor thereto) as a result of the decision that Ivory is harmful under normal conditions of use or the risk-benefit balance is not positive under normal conditions of use; or (v) the suspension of the Regulatory Approval of Ivory with respect to the Collaboration Field by the European Commission (or a successor thereto) for a period of more than two hundred (200) consecutive days as a result of bona fide concerns that Ivory is harmful under normal conditions of use or the risk-benefit balance is not positive under normal conditions of use or is unsafe for administration to humans (with respect to each of the foregoing (i) through (v), not including any such occurrence due to manufacturing or distribution errors, or product tampering) (any of the foregoing, a “Valid Safety Issue”). To be effective, such notice must be given no later than thirty (30) days following the notification by Amgen that such Valid Safety Issue has occurred. |
14.7. | Failure to Supply. GSK may terminate this Agreement on thirty (30) days prior written notice if Amgen is unable to supply for reasons other than Force Majeure, at least sixty- six percent (66%) of the lower of: (i) the then-current monthly forecast requirements for Ivory in the Collaboration Scope as a whole; and (ii) the actual demand for Ivory in the Collaboration Scope as a whole, in each case for each of six (6) consecutive calendar months. To be effective, such notice must be given no later than thirty (30) days following the sooner of notification by Amgen or GSK otherwise becoming aware that such failure to supply has occurred. |
14.8. | Termination for Challenge. Either Party will have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other Party, if such other Party, its Affiliates or licensees bring or join any challenge to the validity or enforceability of (i) if Amgen is the challenging Party, any Know-How or Patents licensed to Amgen pursuant to Section 9.5 (License Grant by GSK) (including GSK Inventions); and (ii) if GSK is the challenging Party, any Ivory Intellectual Property (or any intellectual property corresponding to any such Ivory Intellectual Property outside the Collaboration Scope). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 14.8 (Termination for Challenge) will either: (i) prevent either Party from asserting any defense or counterclaim in an action for infringement of intellectual property, brought against such Party or its Affiliates, or any Third Party that such Party or any of its Affiliates is obligated to indemnify, or responding in any other manner to such an action for infringement; or (ii) allow a Party to terminate this Agreement in the event the other Party asserts any such defense or counterclaim or otherwise responds in any such action for infringement. |
14.9. | Effects of Expiration or Termination Upon the expiration or termination of this |
14.9.1. | Accrued Obligations. Expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason will not release either Party from any liability (including any payment obligations) that, at the time of such expiration or termination, has already accrued to the other Party or which is attributable to activities prior to such expiration or termination. |

Except as set forth in Section 14.10 (Transition), upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement: (i) GSK’s right to promote Ivory in the Collaboration Scope will terminate; (ii) all licenses to GSK hereunder will terminate; and (iii) GSK will immediately cease all of its promotional and marketing activities for Ivory in the Collaboration Territory and discontinue all use of Amgen Housemarks and Product Trademarks. Amgen’s right to use the GSK Housemarks pursuant to Section 9.11.3.2 will survive expiration or termination of the Agreement until such time as any existing inventory of labeling, package inserts or outserts, monographs or packaging materials or Promotional Materials for Ivory in the Collaboration Territory that contain the GSK Housemarks have been depleted. |
14.9.3. | Product Data and Amgen Confidential Information. GSK will promptly transfer to Amgen, at no cost, copies of all data, reports, records and materials in its possession or control that relate to Ivory (“Product Data”). Such Product Data will be in electronic form reasonably usable by Amgen and, if reasonably |
14.9.4. | Return of Samples and Materials. GSK will promptly return to Amgen, or destroy at Amgen’s request (and certify such destruction to Amgen), all Samples, Promotional Materials, sales training materials and any other documents, or materials primarily intended for use in commercialization of Ivory in the Collaboration Territory. |
14.9.5. | Assignment of Filings and Registrations. GSK will, at its own expense (other than with respect to any fee payable to the relevant Governmental Authority in connection with the relevant assignment, which will be borne by Amgen), assign to Amgen all Regulatory Filings and Regulatory Approvals in the Collaboration Territory related to Ivory that are in GSK’s name (if any), and all trademark and copyright registrations related to Ivory (or to labeling, package inserts or outserts, monographs or packaging materials or Promotional Materials for Ivory) that are in GSK’s name, if any. The foregoing is not meant to imply any right of GSK to own any filing or intellectual property except as may be expressly set forth herein or agreed in writing between the Parties. |
14.9.6. | Survival. Articles 5 (Up-Front Payments and Milestones) (with respect to periods prior to expiration or termination), 6 (Profit/Expense Sharing) (with respect to periods prior to expiration or termination), 7 (Payments) (with respect to periods prior to expiration or termination), 8 (Distracting Products) (only with respect to such continuing periods as expressly referenced in such Article), 13 (Indemnification and Insurance) (with respect to periods prior to expiration or termination), and 16 (Miscellaneous) and Sections 3.10 (Promotional Materials) (with respect to the termination of use of and destruction of existing Promotional Materials), 3.11 (Detailing Reports and Audit Rights) (with respect to periods prior to expiration or termination), 3.13 (Samples) (with respect to the return or destruction of Samples), 9.4 (License Grant by Amgen) (with respect to the transition period referenced in Section 14.10 (Transition)), 9.5 |

During all applicable notice periods prior to termination under Sections 14.1 (Termination for Breach), 14.3 (Termination for Insolvency), 14.4 (Early Termination by Amgen), 14.7 (Failure to Supply) and 16.9 (Force Majeure) (provided; that with respect to transition following termination pursuant to Section 16.9 (Force Majeure), the Party subject to such Force Majeure or Judicial Force Majeure will not be liable for activities to the extent prevented from performing such activities due to the Force Majeure or Judicial Force Majeure giving rise to such termination. GSK will continue to meet its obligations to promote Ivory within the Collaboration Scope, in accordance with the applicable Country Plan and this Agreement, unless otherwise requested by Amgen or agreed by the Parties. Except for termination pursuant to Section 14.4 (Early Termination by Amgen), during such period as the Parties determine is reasonably necessary (up to six (6) months) following the effective date of such termination, GSK will undertake reasonable efforts to effect a smooth and orderly transition of all commercial activities and responsibilities of GSK under this Agreement to Amgen, as soon as reasonably possible, to enable Amgen to continue the promotion and commercialization of Ivory in the Collaboration Scope after termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties will use reasonable efforts to effect the transition as quickly as possible within the time periods referenced above. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of termination in accordance with Section 14.6 (Valid Safety Issue) GSK will have no obligation to Detail or commercialize Ivory, or take any other action that it reasonably believes presents a safety risk to patients (and GSK’s decision to not take such action will not be subject to Amgen’s final decision-making authority under Article 2 (Scope and Governance), but will carry out its other obligations pursuant to Section 14.8 (Effects of Expiration or Termination). During any transition period subsequent to the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Amgen will reimburse GSK’s reasonable costs incurred at Amgen’s request in connection with the transition of responsibilities for Ivory in the Collaboration Scope to Amgen. |
14.11. | Tail Payments. Upon expiration of the Term pursuant to Section 14.1 (Term) Amgen will make a tail payment to GSK in each of the two (2) years of the Tail Period (i.e., |
14.11.1. | No later than March 1, 2024, Amgen will pay GSK a Tail Payment in an amount equal to forty percent (40%) of Ivory Net Revenues for 2023 multiplied by the GSK 2022 Profit Share. |
14.11.2. | No later than March 1, 2025, Amgen will pay GSK a Tail Payment in an amount equal to thirty percent (30%) of Ivory Net Revenues for 2024 multiplied by the GSK 2022 Profit Share. |
14.11.3. | “GSK 2022 Profit Share” means fifty percent (50%) of that percentage that is determined by dividing an amount equal to (Ivory Net Revenues, less the Inventorship Margin, GSK Costs and Amgen Costs) by (Ivory Net Revenues for |
2022). | If the GSK 2022 Profit Share equals zero (0) or a negative number, then GSK will not be entitled any Tail Payments pursuant to this Section 14.11 (Tail Payment). |
14.11.4. | An example of the calculation of the payment to be made pursuant to this Section 14.11 (Tail Payment) is set forth on the Tail Payment Schedule. The provisions of Article 7 will apply to the Tail Payments. |
14.12. | No Limitation of Rights. The rights provided in this Article 14 (Term and Termination) will be in addition and without prejudice to any other rights which the Parties may have with respect to any default or breach of the provisions of this Agreement. Termination is not the sole remedy under this Agreement and, whether or not termination is effected, all other remedies at equity or law will remain available to the Parties except as expressly agreed otherwise herein. |
15. | CHANGE OF CONTROL |
15.1. | Change of Control of GSK. GSK will give Amgen written notice within five (5) days after the public announcement or disclosure of, or if earlier the signing of any agreement for, a proposed Change of Control of GSK. In the event of the occurrence of, signing of an agreement for, or public announcement or disclosure of, any proposed Change of Control of GSK, Amgen will have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety (subject to Section 14.8 (Effects of Expiration or Termination) by buying out GSK’s remaining interest (including the value of any Tail Payments) in this Agreement at fair-market value. If Amgen exercises such right, it will provide written notice to GSK (a “Change of Control Buyout Notice”) of such termination within sixty (60) days following the Change of Control. Such termination will be effective ninety (90) days thereafter. In the event of any such termination, Amgen will pay GSK the fair market value of GSK’s remaining interest so terminated (i.e., a one-time payment of the risk-adjusted net present value of the net profits GSK would expect to receive hereunder over the remainder of the Term (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Tail Period) in the event the Agreement had not been so terminated (a “Change of Control Buyout Payment”) (but not less than zero)). Within twenty (20) days following Amgen’s provision of the Change of Control Buyout Notice, the Parties will meet and negotiate the amount of such Change of Control Buyout Payment. If the Parties agree on the amount of the Change of Control Buyout Payment within such twenty (20) day |
15.2. | Change of Control of Amgen. Amgen will give GSK written notice within five (5) days after the public announcement or disclosure of, or if earlier the signing of any agreement for, a proposed Change of Control of Amgen (a “Change of Control Notice”). In the event of the occurrence of a Change of Control of Amgen, if the entity acquiring ownership of Amgen is in the top five (5) pharmaceutical companies in the European Union by sales in the full calendar year immediately prior to the year in which such Change of Control occurs then GSK will have the right to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion upon written notice to be delivered to Amgen within sixty (60) days receipt of such Change of Control Notice. In the event of any such termination, GSK will reasonably cooperate with Amgen for a period of up to one year from the date of termination (as requested by Amgen (or its successor)) to effectuate a smooth transition of the activities being conducted by GSK to Amgen. During such one (1) year period, GSK will continue to perform in accordance with the applicable Country Plans, Brand Plan and Development Plan in effect as of the date of the Change of Control Notice (except as reasonably necessary to effectuate the transition), and the activities of the committees and teams hereunder will be limited to those reasonably necessary to effectuate such smooth transition. If GSK does not exercise its right to terminate the Agreement due to a Change of Control of Amgen as described herein, then the Agreement will continue unimpaired and in full force and effect. |
16. | MISCELLANEOUS |
16.1. | Affiliates.

16.2. | Arbitration. In the event of any controversy or dispute arising out of or relating to any provision of this Agreement, the construction, validity or breach thereof, the Parties will try to settle the same amicably between themselves.

The arbitrators will have the power to grant monetary damages as well as injunctive or other specific relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party will have the right to seek, without establishment of the arbitral tribunal, injunctive or other provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction that may be necessary to avoid irreparable harm or preserve the subject matter of a dispute. Each Party will bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees, and the Party that does not prevail in the arbitration proceeding will pay the arbitrator’s fees and any administrative fees of arbitration. |
16.3. | Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred (whether by operation of Applicable Law, general succession or otherwise) by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided that either Party may assign this Agreement, or rights and obligations hereunder, without prior written consent to any Affiliate, and Amgen may assign this Agreement without prior written consent in connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of the business of Amgen to which this Agreement relates.

Whenever the context may require, any pronoun will include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The Parties each acknowledge that they have had the advice of counsel with respect to this Agreement, that this Agreement has been jointly drafted, and that no rule of strict construction will be applied in the interpretation hereof. Unless the context requires otherwise: (i) a reference to a Party’s costs includes both internal FTE costs at the FTE Rate and reasonable Third Party costs; (ii) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein will be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein or therein); (iii) any reference to any Applicable Law herein will be construed as referring to such Applicable Law as from time to time enacted, repealed or amended; (iv) any reference herein to any person will be construed to include the person’s permitted successors and assigns; (v) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, will be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof; and (vi) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Schedules or Exhibits, unless otherwise specifically provided, will be construed to refer to Articles, Sections, Schedules or Exhibits of this Agreement. This Agreement has been executed in English, and the English version of this Agreement will control. |
16.7. | Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts with the same effect as if both Parties had signed the same document. All such counterparts will be deemed an original, will be construed together and will constitute one and the same instrument. Signature pages of this Agreement may be exchanged by facsimile or other electronic means without affecting the validity thereof. |
16.8. | Currency. With respect to amounts required to be converted into another currency for calculation or payment, hereunder, such amounts will be converted using a rate of exchange which corresponds to the rate used for conversion between the relative currencies by whichever Party recorded the relevant receipt or expenditure, for the respective reporting period in its books and records that are maintained in accordance with GAAP or IFRS, as the case may be.

16.9. | Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the attached Appendices, Schedules and Exhibits constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties as to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes and merges all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, |
16.10. | Force Majeure. Neither Party will be liable for delay or failure in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder (other than the payment of money) to the extent such delay or failure is due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, fires, floods, earthquakes, labor strikes, acts of war, terrorism or civil unrest (“Force Majeure”); provided, that the affected Party promptly notifies the other Party in writing (and continues to provide monthly status updates to the other Party for the duration of the effect); and provided, further that the affected Party uses its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to avoid or remove such causes of non-performance and to mitigate the effect of such occurrence, and will continue performance with reasonable dispatch whenever such causes are removed. If the performance of any obligation or activity of either Party that is fundamental to the commercial success of Ivory in the Collaboration Scope is prevented by such Force Majeure event for a period of more than one (1) year, then either Party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days written notice, unless such obligation is performed within such thirty (30) day notice period. In addition, neither Party will be liable for delay or failure in the performance of any material obligations assigned to it pursuant to Section 3.3 (Designated GSK Activities) or 3.4 (Designated Amgen Activities) to the extent such delay or failure is due to a judicial injunction issuing within three (3) years of the Effective Date and prohibiting such performance (a “Judicial Force Majeure”); provided, that, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the affected Party: (i) promptly notifies the other Party in writing (and continues to provide monthly status updates to the other Party for the duration of the effect); (ii) uses reasonable efforts prior to and during litigation to mitigate the effect of or appeal such injunction (but in no event will such Party have any obligation to take any actions to the extent deemed unadvisable by such Party’s litigation counsel); (iii) cooperates with the JSC to create contingency plans in advance of any threatened injunction; (iv) cooperates with the JSC to determine a plan to provide substitute or remedial performance to the extent substitute or remedial performance is reasonably possible (which plan may provide for either or both Parties to undertake some or all of such substitute or remedial performance); and (v) performs in accordance with any contingency or substitute or remedial performance plans adopted by the JSC. The costs of such substitute or remedial performance will be included GSK Costs and/or Amgen Costs as the case may be. In the event of a Judicial Force Majeure that, by its terms, would prevent the performance by a Party of any obligation assigned to it pursuant to Section 3.3 (Designated GSK Activities) or 3.4 (Designated Amgen Activities) the performance of which is fundamental to the commercial success of Ivory in the Collaboration Scope for a period of more than six (6) consecutive months, and no reasonable substitute or remedial performance can be provided by either Party on its own or the Parties working together, then: (a) the Parties will promptly (and, in any event, within ten (10) business days of the request of the other Party) meet to discuss the situation; and (b) if the Parties are unable to reach a mutually acceptable solution within fifteen (15) days after initiation of such discussions (and the Judicial Force Majeure has not been eliminated by such time), then either Party will have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other, given within fifteen (15) days |
16.11. | Further Assurances. Each Party agrees to do and perform all such further acts and things and will execute and deliver such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents necessary or that the other Party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and to evidence, perfect or otherwise confirm its rights hereunder. |

16.15. | Relationship of the Parties. Each Party is an independent contractor under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein will be deemed to create an employment, agency, joint venture or partnership relationship between the Parties or any of their agents or employees, or any other legal arrangement that would impose liability upon one Party for the act or failure to act of the other Party.

16.16. | Severability. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Parties waive any provision of Applicable Law that would render any provision in this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in any respect or to any extent, then in such respect and to such extent such provision will be given no effect by the Parties and shall not form part of this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the Parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a provision in replacement of the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is consistent with Applicable Law and achieves, as nearly as possible, the original intention of the Parties. |
16.17. | Standstill. GSK agrees that, for a period commencing on the Effective Date and expiring on the fifth (5th) anniversary thereof, except pursuant to the terms of a specific written invitation in writing by the Chief Executive Officer of Amgen, or except as otherwise approved by Amgen’s Board of Directors, neither GSK nor any of its Affiliates will in any manner, directly or indirectly: (a) effect or seek, offer or propose (whether publicly or otherwise) to effect, or announce any intention to effect or propose (whether publicly or otherwise) to effect, or cause or participate in, or in any way assist, facilitate or encourage any other Person to effect or seek, offer or propose (whether publicly or otherwise) to effect, or cause or participate in: (i) any acquisition of Voting Securities (or beneficial ownership thereof) of Amgen or its Affiliates, or rights or options to acquire any Voting Securities (or beneficial ownership thereof) of Amgen or its Affiliates, or any assets, indebtedness or businesses of Amgen or its Affiliates; (ii) any tender or exchange offer, merger or other business combination involving Amgen, any of its Affiliates or assets of Amgen or its Affiliates constituting a significant portion of the consolidated assets of Amgen and its Affiliates; (iii) any recapitalization, restructuring, liquidation, dissolution or other extraordinary transaction with respect to Amgen or any of its Affiliates; or (iv) any “solicitation” of “proxies” (as such terms are used in the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission) or consents to vote any Voting Securities of Amgen or any of its Affiliates; (b) form, join or in any way participate in a “group” (as defined under the Exchange Act), with respect to Amgen or otherwise act in concert with any person in respect of any Voting Securities of Amgen or any of its Affiliates; (c) otherwise act, alone or in concert with others (including by providing financing for another person), to seek representation on or to control or influence the management, Board of Directors or policies of Amgen or to obtain representation on the Board of Directors of Amgen; (d) take any action which would reasonably be expected to force Amgen to make a public announcement regarding any of the types of matters set forth in (a) above; or (e) enter into any discussions or arrangements with any Third Party with respect to any of the foregoing. |
16.17.1. | GSK and its Affiliates hereby acknowledge that they do not beneficially own any Voting Securities of Amgen or have other rights or options to acquire such Voting Securities (or beneficial ownership thereof). Notwithstanding any of the foregoing restrictions, nothing will prohibit GSK and its Affiliates from: (i) individually and collectively purchasing, beneficially owning or selling any Voting Securities that represent in the aggregate less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding Voting Securities of Amgen; and/or (ii) entering into and participating in any other existing and future commercial relationships and arrangements between Amgen and/or its Affiliates and GSK and/or its Affiliates in the ordinary course of business (i.e., collaboration, licensing, research, development, marketing and other comparable relationships). |
16.17.2. | GSK will be relieved of the foregoing standstill obligations in the event: (i) Amgen publicly announces that is has entered into a definitive agreement relating to a Change of Control of Amgen; (ii) Amgen publicly announces a formal decision of Amgen’s Board of Directors (or a committee thereof) to conduct a process to sell all or substantially all of the assets of Amgen and its Affiliates on a consolidated basis; provided, that the standstill obligations will be automatically reinstated if Amgen publicly announces a termination of such process; (iii) a Third Party commences a tender offer for more than fifty percent (50%) of the Voting Securities of Amgen and Amgen has publicly recommended acceptance of such tender offer; provided, that the standstill obligations will be automatically reinstated in the event such tender offer is terminated; and (iv) upon the completion of a Change of Control of Amgen. |
16.17.3. | The provisions of this Section 16.17 (Standstill) will not be construed or interpreted to prohibit GSK in any manner from making any bid or offer to license or acquire rights to any asset(s) of Amgen (other than substantially all of the assets of Amgen and its Affiliates) as opposed to acquiring securities of Amgen if such bid or offer is solicited from GSK by Amgen. The foregoing standstill obligations will not prohibit GSK from confidentially communicating to Amgen’s Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board of Directors a non-public indication of GSK’s interest in pursuing a potential transaction involving Amgen in such a manner that would not require Amgen to make public disclosure. Neither the ownership nor purchase by an employee benefit plan of GSK or GSK’s Affiliates in any diversified index, mutual or pension fund managed by an independent advisor, which fund in turn holds, directly or indirectly, securities of Amgen will be deemed to be a breach of GSK’s standstill obligations under this Section 16.17 (Standstill). If GSK, or GSK’s Affiliates, acquires securities of, or other ownership interest in, a Third Party that directly or indirectly owns any securities or property of Amgen, such acquisition will not be deemed to be a breach of GSK’s standstill obligations under this Section 16.17 (Standstill), subject to GSK’s compliance with all other terms of this Agreement and provided that, if GSK and its Affiliates then beneficially own in the aggregate five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding Voting Securities of Amgen, GSK will notify Amgen thereof promptly following such acquisition and will dispose of Voting Securities of Amgen, in sufficient number so that GSK and its Affiliates no longer beneficially own |
16.18. | Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided with respect to Amgen Indemnitees or GSK Indemnities in Article 13 (Indemnification), there are no Third Party beneficiaries intended hereunder and no Third Party will have any right or obligation hereunder. |
16.19. | Waivers and Modifications. The failure of any Party to insist on the performance of any obligation hereunder will not be deemed to be a waiver of such obligation. Waiver of any breach of any provision hereof will not be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or any other provision on such occasion or any other occasion. No waiver, modification, release or amendment of any right or obligation under or provision of this Agreement will be valid or effective unless in writing and signed by all Parties hereto. |

GRAS Safety Studies- 20090286 - Denosumab Methodology and Background Assessment (DMBA) | Qualified Amgen R&D | The overall purpose is to design and execute analyses based upon data from the pre- launch period to support the validity of the denosumab post- marketing pharmacovigilance study in post- menopausal osteoporosis (PMO). | This is a retrospective cohort study to be conducted using Nordic Country National Health Registry System databases, including data from Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Norway. The study period (over which data from the pre-launch period will be collected) will begin January 1, 2005, and will continue through December 31, 2009. Depending upon data availability, this study period may vary over the selected countries. Patients will be followed for at least one year and up to five years. The study will be completed by the end of 2010. Findings from this study will inform the design and implementation of the denosumab post-marketing safety assessment based on Nordic Country National Health Registry Systems. | N/A | Based on census data from the four countries, there are approx 2.4 million women aged 65 years or older. If the study includes female population between 55 and 64 years old, the sample size will be more than 3 million. Given the expected large sample size, this study will be able to evaluate incidence of rare events. | PMO women, enrolled in one of the four Nordic Country National Health Registry Systems, and meeting the pre-defined PMO diagnostic between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2009 will be eligible for inclusion in these analyses. | 72-months | 1/1/2005 | 12/31/2010 | ||
GRAS Safety Studies - 20090287 - Denosumab Post-Marketing Global Safety Assessment (DPMGSA) | Qualified Amgen R&D | The proposed study will be conducted in two phases. Objectives of the Phase 1 studies are to: 1. Characterize potential denosumab users in PMO populations and likely comparator groups. 2. Establish and test the validity of algorithms for identifying PMO populations, determining PMO | Cohort analyses in 3 US data systems and 4 Nordic countries will be proposed. In Phase 1, data will be analyzed for the period January 2005 until the launch of denosumab (or a 5 year period) in the respective countries. For Phase 2, data will be collected for a 5 year period starting 6 months after launch. | N/A | The number of dmab- exposed patients in the five year post- launch period can be estimated as the sum of: (i) 62,500- 125,000 women aged 65 | Eligibility will be limited to post- menopausal women with a diagnosis of osteoporosis. Identification of such women will be based on a validated algorithm developed during Phase 1, which will generally include diagnostic | 72-months | Unfunded | 1/1/2005 | 12/31/2010 |
severity and ascertaining the occurrence of study events of interest. 3. Describe background incidence rates of study events of interest using validated case ascertainment algorithms among potential denosumab exposed populations and likely comparator groups. The results from Phase 1 will support the evaluation of events of interest in Phase 2. Objectives of the Phase 2 studies are to: 1. Describe and compare, after appropriately adjusting for relevant confounding factors, incidence rates of events of interest in denosumab exposed and unexposed PMO women. 2. Describe denosumab utilization patterns (dosage, frequency, length of utilization, stop / switch treatment) in PMO women receiving denosumab therapy. 3. Describe patient characteristics and clinical features of PMO women treated with denosumab. | years and older within Medicare; (ii) approx 30,000 within Kaiser; (iii) approx 50,000 in United HealthCare ; and (iv) approx 240,000 in the Nordic registries.
