Regulatory Compliance Cooperation (a) CIT/VC agrees to use commercially reasonable best efforts to avoid the occurrence of a Regulatory Problem. In the event that CIT/VC determines that it has a Regulatory Problem, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to take all such actions as are reasonably requested by CIT/VC in order (A) to effectuate and facilitate any transfer by CIT/VC of any Securities of the Company then held by CIT/VC to any Person designated by CIT/VC (subject, however, to compliance with Section 3 of this Agreement), (B) to permit CIT/VC (or any Affiliate of CIT/VC) to exchange all or any portion of the voting Securities of the Company then held by such Person on a share-for-share basis for shares of a class of non-voting Securities of the Company, which non-voting Securities shall be identical in all respects to such voting Securities, except that such new Securities shall be non-voting and shall be convertible into voting Securities on such terms as are requested by CIT/VC in light of regulatory considerations then prevailing, and (C) to continue and preserve the respective allocation of the voting interests with respect to the Company arising out of CIT/VC's ownership of voting Securities of the Company and/or provided for in this Agreement before the transfers and amendments referred to above (including entering into such additional agreements as are requested by CIT/VC to permit any Person(s) designated by CIT/VC to exercise any voting power which is relinquished by CIT/VC upon any exchange of voting Securities for nonvoting Securities of the Company); and the Company shall enter into such additional agreements, adopt such amendments to this Agreement, the Company's Charter and the Company's By-laws and other relevant agreements and taking such additional actions, in each case as are reasonably requested by CIT/VC in order to effectuate the intent of the foregoing. If CIT/VC elects to transfer Securities of the Company to a Regulated Holder in order to avoid a Regulatory Problem, the Company shall enter into such agreements with such Regulated Holder as it may reasonably request in order to assist such Regulated Holder in complying with applicable laws, and regulations to which it is subject. Such agreements may include restrictions on the 39. redemption, repurchase or retirement of Securities of the Company that would result or be reasonably expected to result in such Regulated Holder holding more voting securities or total securities (equity and debt) than it is permitted to hold under such laws and regulations.
Reporting Obligations and Regulatory Approvals Applicable laws and regulations may require holders and beneficial owners of Shares, including the Holders and Beneficial Owners of ADSs, to satisfy reporting requirements and obtain regulatory approvals in certain circumstances. Holders and Beneficial Owners of ADSs are solely responsible for determining and complying with such reporting requirements and obtaining such approvals. Each Holder and each Beneficial Owner hereby agrees to make such determination, file such reports, and obtain such approvals to the extent and in the form required by applicable laws and regulations as in effect from time to time. Neither the Depositary, the Custodian, the Company or any of their respective agents or affiliates shall be required to take any actions whatsoever on behalf of Holders or Beneficial Owners to determine or satisfy such reporting requirements or obtain such regulatory approvals under applicable laws and regulations.
Legal and Regulatory Compliance The issuance of Shares shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. If at any time the Company determines, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary as a condition to the issuance of Shares to Participant (or his or her estate), such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval will have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. If the Company determines that the issuance of any Shares will violate federal securities laws or other applicable laws or regulations or the requirements of any exchange or market system upon which the Shares are listed, the Company may defer issuance until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the issuance of Shares will no longer cause such violation. The Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any such state or federal law or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority, but the inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any Shares shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the issuance of Shares, the Company may require Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.

FDA and Regulatory Matters Except as set forth in the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, there is no legal or governmental proceeding to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any officer or director of the Company, in their roles as such, or any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company, is the subject, including any proceeding before the United States Food and Drug Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (the “FDA”) or comparable federal, state, local or foreign governmental authorities (it being understood that the interaction between the Company and the FDA and such comparable governmental bodies relating to the clinical development and product approval process shall not be deemed proceedings for purposes of this representation), which is required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement or a document incorporated by reference therein and is not described therein, or which, singularly or in the aggregate, if determined adversely to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and to the Company’s knowledge after reasonable investigation (“Knowledge”), no such proceedings are threatened by governmental authorities. The Company is in compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, regulations, orders and decrees governing its business as prescribed by the FDA, or any other federal, state or foreign agencies or bodies engaged in the regulation of pharmaceuticals or biohazardous substances or materials, except where noncompliance would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. All preclinical and clinical studies conducted by or on behalf of the Company to support approval for commercialization of the Company’s products have been conducted by the Company, or to the Company’s Knowledge by third parties, in compliance with all applicable federal, state or foreign laws, rules, orders and regulations, except for such failure or failures to be in compliance as could not reasonably be expected to have, singularly or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and each of its subsidiaries possess all licenses, certificates, authorizations and permits issued by, and have made all declarations and filings with, the appropriate local, state, federal or foreign governmental or regulatory agencies or bodies (including, without limitation, those administered by the FDA or by any foreign, federal, state or local governmental or regulatory authority performing functions similar to those performed by the FDA) that are necessary for the ownership or lease of their respective properties or the conduct of their respective businesses as described in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement (collectively, the “Governmental Permits”), except where any failures to possess or make the same would not, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its subsidiaries are in compliance with all such Governmental Permits and all such Governmental Permits are valid and in full force and effect, except where the noncompliance, validity or failure to be in full force and effect would not, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any subsidiary has received notification of any revocation, modification, suspension, termination or invalidation (or proceedings related thereto) of any such Governmental Permit and to the Knowledge of the Company, no event has occurred that allows or results in, or after notice or lapse of time or both would allow or result in, revocation, modification, suspension, termination or invalidation (or proceedings related thereto) of any such Governmental Permit and the Company has no reason to believe that any such Governmental Permit will not be renewed, except where such revocation, modification, suspension, termination, invalidation or nonrenewal would not, singularly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its subsidiaries, and to the Company’s Knowledge, its directors, officers, employees or agents, each in their respective roles with the Company, are and have been in compliance in all material respects with applicable federal, state, local and foreign health care regulatory laws, including without limitation, laws related to fraud and abuse, payment transparency, and privacy and security of protected health information (collectively, “Health Care Laws”). The Company and its subsidiaries have not received written notice of any claim, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, enforcement, investigation, arbitration or other action from any court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority or third party alleging that the Company, its subsidiaries or its personnel have violated any applicable Health Care Law, nor, to the Company’s Knowledge, has any such claim, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, enforcement, investigation, arbitration or other action been threatened, which, individually or in the aggregate, might result in any Material Adverse Effect. The studies, tests and preclinical or clinical trials conducted by or on behalf of the Company that are described in the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement (the “Company Studies and Trials”) were and, if still pending, are being conducted in all material respects in accordance with experimental protocols, procedures and controls pursuant to, where applicable, accepted professional scientific standards; the descriptions of the results of the Company Studies and Trials contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement are accurate in all material respects; the Company has no knowledge of any other studies or trials not described in the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, the results of which are inconsistent with or call in question the results described or referred to in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement; and the Company has not received any notices or correspondence from the FDA or any foreign, state or local governmental authority exercising comparable authority requiring the termination, suspension or material modification of any Company Studies and Trials that termination, suspension or material modification would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and, to the Company’s Knowledge, there are no reasonable grounds for the same. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, the Company has not granted rights to develop, manufacture, produce, assemble, distribute, license, market or sell its products or product candidates to any other person and is not bound by any agreement that affects the exclusive right of the Company to develop, manufacture, produce, assemble, distribute, license, market or sell its products or product candidates.
