Lead Identification Clause Samples

The Lead Identification clause defines the process and criteria by which potential business opportunities, or 'leads,' are recognized and documented between parties. Typically, this clause outlines the information required to qualify a lead, such as contact details, business needs, or other relevant data, and may specify the method for submitting or acknowledging leads. Its core practical function is to ensure both parties have a clear, consistent understanding of what constitutes a valid lead, thereby reducing disputes and streamlining the process of pursuing new business.
Lead Identification. The term
Lead Identification. PTC shall screen the Research Compounds using the assays as set forth in the Research Plan. PTC shall provide the results of the screening assays to the JRC and CVT. The JRC shall review the results of the screening assays, determine which Research Compounds shall be designated as Lead Compounds and submit its recommendations to the JMC for written approval. No more than [*] days after the JRC’s recommendation is presented to the JMC, the JMC shall determine under Section 2.3(c)(iv) whether such Research Compounds merit further study and if so, shall designate such Research Compounds as Lead Compounds in writing. Any Research Compounds that are not designated as Lead Compounds shall remain in the PTC compound library, and shall continue to be part of the Research Collaboration and subject to the exclusivity provisions of Section 3.11 until [*] days after the end of the Collaboration Term. After such [*] day period, if CVT does not take an exclusive license to such compounds pursuant to Section 4.6, then such Research Compounds shall be deemed Non-Collaboration Compounds, and PTC shall have the right to screen such Non-Collaboration Compounds and to develop and commercialize products incorporating such Non-Collaboration Compounds with no royalty or milestone obligations to CVT for such products under this Agreement.
Lead Identification. (a) During the applicable Exclusivity Period, upon Roche’s exercise of a Validated SM Option for a Small Molecule Validation Program, subject to Section 4.2.7, the applicable JPT will promptly draft a Research Plan setting forth the hit-to-lead activities for the up to [***] Validated Small Molecule Series from such Small Molecule Validation Program with the goal of developing at least [***] and up to [***] Lead Series therefrom (each such program following exercise of the Validated SM Option, a “Stage 3 Small Molecule Program”). Such Research Plan shall be approved by the applicable JRC and will include the Lead Series Criteria and Target Candidate Profile for such Stage 3 Small Molecule Program. The applicable JPT will identify up to [***] prioritized Validated Small Molecule Series for which (unless otherwise agreed by the Parties) such hit-to-lead activities will initially be conducted in parallel to develop small molecule(s) that satisfy such Lead Series Criteria; provided that any of the other Validated Small Molecule Series from such Small Molecule Validation Program may be included in such hit-to-lead activities if one or more of the initial prioritized Validated Small Molecule Series fails. Promptly following approval of such Research Plan by the applicable JRC, Recursion will conduct the activities as set forth therein. Within [***] days following the earlier of completion of the Research Plan activities for such Stage 3 Small Molecule Program and the applicable Completion Date, Recursion will deliver to Roche, to the extent not previously provided by Recursion to Roche during conduct of the program, (a) a list, including structures and synthesis protocols, of each of the small molecules identified and synthesized by Recursion in the conduct of such Stage 3 Small Molecule Program, specifically identifying those within each Lead Series identified by Recursion (if any); and (b) a copy of [***] and a description of all Program IP and Joint Collaboration IP, in each case in this clause (b), generated by or on behalf of Recursion (solely or jointly) in the conduct of such Research Plan, specifically noting all such Data that demonstrate achievement of the Lead Series Criteria (a “Lead Activities Report”). (b) Roche shall notify Recursion in writing within [***] days of receipt of the Lead Activities Report if Roche does not in good faith agree that Recursion has identified and synthesized small molecules in at least [***] different series that meet th...
