Common use of Maintenance and Enforcement of Existing Third Party Agreements and Existing Liens Clause in Contracts

Maintenance and Enforcement of Existing Third Party Agreements and Existing Liens. During the Term, Arvinas shall not terminate, amend, waive or otherwise modify (or provide consent with respect to any termination, amendment, waiver or modification of) the rights under any Existing Third Party Agreement or Existing Lien in any manner that materially diminishes the licenses or rights granted to Licensee hereunder, materially impairs Licensee’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder or otherwise materially adversely affects, or is likely to materially adversely affect, Licensee’s rights hereunder; in all cases, without the prior consent of Genentech (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In the event of any notice of breach by Arvinas or its Affiliates, as applicable, given under the provisions of any Existing Third Party Agreement or Existing Lien, Arvinas shall immediately notify Licensee in writing and if Arvinas fails to cure such breach, Licensee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such breach on behalf of Arvinas or its Affiliates, as applicable, and to offset any reasonable amounts incurred or paid by Licensee in connection with the cure of such breach against any amounts otherwise payable by Licensee to Arvinas under this Agreement until fully offset. In the event Arvinas receives notice of any breach by the other party of the applicable Existing Third Party Agreement or Existing Lien in a manner that will or is likely to materially adversely affect Licensee’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, Arvinas shall immediately notify Licensee in writing, and Arvinas shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as reasonably requested by Genentech to enforce such Existing Third Party Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event an Existing Third Party Agreement terminates during the Term, any sublicense(s) granted from Arvinas to Licensee under any such Existing Third Party Agreement hereunder shall survive and any amounts that Licensee shall pay to such Third Party under such sublicense(s) for activities performed in accordance with this Agreement may be offset against any and all amounts otherwise payable by Licensee to Arvinas hereunder until fully offset. Specifically, with respect to the Yale Agreement, any and all sublicense(s) granted from Arvinas to Licensee under the Yale Agreement hereunder shall survive termination of the Yale Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect as a direct license from Yale to Licensee under terms and conditions consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement that are applicable to the Yale Agreement, except that (i) Yale’s obligations and responsibilities shall not be materially different than its obligations and responsibilities under the Yale Agreement; (ii) the scope of Licensee’s rights with respect to the Yale Agreement shall remain the same as set forth hereunder, provided that such rights are not in conflict with (i) above, in which event (i) above shall prevail; and (iii) Licensee shall be responsible to Yale for payments otherwise payable to Yale by Arvinas under the Yale Agreement solely based upon the development and commercialization of Licensed Products by Licensee, its Affiliates or Sublicensees pursuant to this Agreement and to the extent not previously paid by Arvinas (but excluding any payments based upon SUBLICENSE INCOME as set forth under Article 7.3 of the Yale Agreement). Payments shall be made to Yale in accordance with Sections 7.3, 7.4.2, 7.7, 7.8, 7.9 and 7.11 of this Agreement, but to Yale and for the benefit of Yale, and to an account designated by Yale in writing; and any amounts that Licensee shall pay to Yale under such direct license may be offset against any and all amounts otherwise payable by Licensee to Arvinas hereunder until fully offset. For clarity, any sublicense from Yale that continues after termination of this Agreement pursuant to this subsection (j) shall continue during the negotiation of the terms and conditions of a direct license as contemplated in the above between Yale and the relevant Licensee, and Licensee’s obligations and responsibilities under any such direct license shall not be materially different than its obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement, provided that Licensee shall be responsible for a prorata share (based on the number of other licensees under the LICENSED PATENTS (as defined in the Yale Agreement) obligated to make such payments) of the license maintenance royalty due under Article 5.2 of the Yale Agreement and of patent expenses due under Article 10 of the Yale Agreement to the extent not previously paid by Arvinas.
