Shared Contracts Clause Samples
The Shared Contracts clause establishes the terms under which multiple parties jointly enter into and are bound by a single contract. In practice, this clause outlines how responsibilities, rights, and obligations are distributed among the parties, and may specify procedures for decision-making, liability sharing, or dispute resolution. Its core function is to ensure clarity and coordination among all involved parties, reducing the risk of misunderstandings and facilitating effective collaboration under a unified agreement.

Shared Contracts. (a) With respect to Shared Contractual Liabilities pursuant to, under or relating to a given Shared Contract, such Shared Contractual Liabilities shall be allocated, unless otherwise allocated pursuant to this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement, between the Parties as follows:
(i) first, if a Liability is incurred exclusively in respect of a benefit received by one Party or its Group, the Party or Group receiving such benefit shall be responsible for such Liability;
(ii) second, if a Liability cannot be exclusively allocated to one Party or its Group under clause (i) above, such Liability shall be allocated among both Parties and their respective Groups based on the relative proportions of total benefit received (over the term of the Shared Contract, measured as of the date of allocation) under the relevant Shared Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party and its Group shall be responsible for any or all Liabilities arising out of or resulting from such Party’s or Group’s breach of the relevant Shared Contract.

Shared Contracts. The Parties shall, and shall cause the members of their respective Groups to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to work together (and, if necessary and desirable, to work with the third party to such Shared Contract) in an effort to divide, partially assign, modify and/or replicate (in whole or in part) the respective rights and obligations under and in respect of any Shared Contract, such that (a) NBI is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the obligations related to that portion of such Shared Contract relating to the NBI Business (the “NBI Portion”), which rights shall be a NBI Asset and which obligations shall be a NBI Liability and (b) a member of the Neurotrope Group is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the obligations related to such Shared Contract not relating to the NBI Business (the “Neurotrope Portion”), which rights shall be a Neurotrope Asset and which obligations shall be a Neurotrope Liability.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Seller and Buyer shall be responsible for any or all Liability or obligation arising from its (or its Subsidiary’s) breach of the relevant Shared Contract to which this Section 5.21 otherwise pertains; provided, however, that each of Seller and Buyer shall be entitled to indemnification from the other for the portion of any Liability or obligation arising from any breach of the relevant Shared Contract by the other party (or its Subsidiary), which indemnification shall be separate from and not subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.7.

Shared Contracts. The Parties will use their reasonable best efforts (and each Party shall cooperate with the other Party) to separate the Shared Contracts into separate Contracts effective as of the Distribution so that from and after the Distribution, Spinco will have the sole benefit and Liabilities with respect to each Shared Contract to the extent related to the Spinco Business and the Harbor Group will have the sole benefit and Liabilities with respect to each Shared Contract to the extent not related to the Spinco Business. Upon such separation of a Shared Contract, the separated Contract that is related to the Spinco Business will be a Spinco Asset and the other separated Contract will be an Excluded Asset. The obligations to separate any Shared Contracts set forth in this Section 2.5 will terminate on the date that is twenty-four (24) months following the Distribution Date. If any Shared Contract is not separated prior to the Distribution Date, then such Shared Contract shall be governed under Section 2.2, including the Parties agreeing to use reasonable best efforts (and each Party agreeing to cooperate with the other Party) to establish arrangements at no charge to Spinco under which the party which is a party to such Shared Contract will use reasonable best efforts to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder to enable each Group to continue to receive the benefits and assume the obligations, in each case, that it received or assumed prior to the Distribution Date, until such Shared Contract expires in accordance with its terms. Harbor and Spinco shall share equally any and all third party fees and out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ and other third party fees) that may be reasonably required in connection with obtaining, whether before or after the Distribution, any such separation of a Shared Contract. Harbor will use its reasonable best efforts to deliver a list of the Shared Contracts to Voyager as soon as practicable after the date hereof and in any event within thirty (30) days after the date hereof. No member of either Group will amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Shared Contract without the consent of the applicable member of the other Group to the extent such amendment, renewal, extension or modification would adversely affect or impose any material obligations on any member of such other Group.
