15. TERM AND TERMINATION

15.1. Term.

The term of this Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and, unless terminated pursuant to Section 15.2, shall continue in full force and effect, on a Product-by-Product and country-by-country basis, until such time as the Royalty Term expires in such country (the “Term”).

15.2. Termination.

This Agreement may be terminated as follows:

(a) Termination for Breach.

(i) General. Subject to Section 15.2(a)(ii), if either Xxxxxxx or MeiraGTx is in material breach of this Agreement, the non-breaching Party must give written notice to the breaching Party within [***] following the alleged breach specifying the claimed particulars of such breach in sufficient detail to put the allegedly breaching party on reasonable notice of the nature of the alleged breach, and in the event such material breach is not cured within [***] after such notice (or in the case of any undisputed payment obligations, [***] after such notice), the non-breaching Party shall have the right thereafter to terminate this Agreement immediately, in whole or with respect to the applicable Product (except with respect to a material breach by Xxxxxxx arising under Section 6.1(e), Section 6.2(a), Section 8.4(a), Article 9 and Section 19.4, which must be terminated on a Product-by-Product basis), by giving written notice to the breaching Party to such effect; provided, however, that if such breach is capable of being cured but cannot be cured within the period referenced above and the breaching Party initiates actions to cure such breach within such period and thereafter diligently pursues such actions, the breaching Party shall have such additional period as is reasonable under the circumstances to cure such breach; it being understood that no such extension shall apply with respect to any undisputed payment obligations. If arbitration is commenced with respect to any alleged breach hereunder pursuant to Section 18.1, no purported termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 15.2(a)(i) shall take effect until: (A) a final resolution of such arbitration; and (B) the losing Party in such arbitration fails to satisfy the arbitration award within the cure time frames referenced above.

(ii) Xxxxxxx Special Remedy. If Xxxxxxx would have the right to terminate this Agreement under Section 15.2(a)(i), in whole or in part, for an uncured material breach by MeiraGTx in connection with a Product, then Xxxxxxx may, in its sole discretion, elect: (A) to either exercise such termination right or (B) in lieu of exercising such termination right, and without limiting Xxxxxxx’x rights otherwise set under this Agreement, subsequently reduce any payment amounts due to MeiraGTx under [***] for such Product by [***] percent ([***]%) as a result of this Section 15.2(a)(ii).

15.3. Rights in Insolvency.

The Parties agree that this Agreement constitutes an executory contract under Section 365 of the Code for the license of “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101 of the Code and constitutes a license of “intellectual property” for purposes of any similar laws in any other country in the Territory. The Parties further agree that Xxxxxxx, as licensee of such rights under this Agreement, will retain and may fully exercise all of its protections, rights and elections under the Code, including under Section 365(n) of the Code, and any similar laws in any other country in the Territory and that Xxxxxxx cannot be compelled to accept a money satisfaction of its interests in the intellectual property licensed pursuant to this Agreement, and that any such sale therefore may not be made to a purchaser “free and clear” of Xxxxxxx’x rights under this Agreement and Section 365(n) without the express, contemporaneous consent of Xxxxxxx. The Parties further agree that, in the event of an Insolvency Event by or against MeiraGTx under the Code and any similar laws in any other country in the Territory, Xxxxxxx may be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual property and all embodiments of such intellectual property (including Materials and Research Results), and the same, if not already in its possession, will be [***] delivered to it: (a) upon any such commencement of an Insolvency Event upon its written request therefor, unless MeiraGTx elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement; or (b) if not delivered under clause (a) above, following the rejection of this Agreement by or on behalf of MeiraGTx upon written request therefor by Xxxxxxx. Whenever MeiraGTx or any of its successors or assigns provides to Xxxxxxx any of the intellectual property licensed hereunder (or any embodiment thereof including Materials and Research Results) pursuant to this Section 15.3, Xxxxxxx shall have the right to perform MeiraGTx’s obligations hereunder with respect to such intellectual property, but neither such provision nor such performance by Xxxxxxx shall release MeiraGTx from liability resulting from rejection of the license or the failure to perform such obligations. MeiraGTx and Xxxxxxx each acknowledges and agrees that Option Fees, Development Milestone Payments, Commercial Milestone Payments and Royalties constitute royalties within the meaning of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.

All rights, powers and remedies of Xxxxxxx provided herein are in addition to and not in substitution for any and all other rights, powers and remedies now or hereafter existing at law or in equity (including the Bankruptcy Code) in the event of the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to MeiraGTx. The Parties agree that they intend the following rights to extend to the maximum extent permitted by law, and to be enforceable under Bankruptcy Code Section 365(n):

(i) the right of access to any intellectual property rights (including all embodiments thereof) of MeiraGTx licensed to Xxxxxxx hereunder, or any Third Party with whom MeiraGTx contracts to perform an obligation of MeiraGTx under this Agreement, and, in the case of the Third Party, which is necessary for the Manufacture, use, sale, import or export of Products; and

15.4. Effects of Expiration or Termination.

For clarity, upon any termination in part of this Agreement, the licenses granted under Article 4 shall survive with respect to the Products not affected by such partial termination.

(b) Confidential Information. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, in whole or in part, each Party will destroy all written, electronic, or other materials containing Confidential Information of the other Party, including all copies thereof relating to such Terminated Product within [***] of such termination and provide certification of such destruction to the owning Party; provided, that: (i) a Party may retain one (1) copy of any materials containing Confidential Information of the other Party in its archives solely for the purpose of monitoring its ongoing confidentiality obligations hereunder; and (ii) a Party will not be obligated to destroy such materials containing Confidential Information of the other Party that are necessary for the Party to exercise any other license or right of such Party that survives such termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that the receiving Party’s use of such Confidential Information will continue to be subject to the requirements and restrictions set forth in Article 12.

(c) Wind-Down Activities. Upon any termination of this Agreement, in whole or in part, by MeiraGTx for Xxxxxxx’x uncured material breach under Section 15.2(a), by MeiraGTx under Section 15.2(b) or Section 15.2(c), or by Xxxxxxx under Section 15.2(d), then the following shall occur:

(i) Xxxxxxx hereby grants to MeiraGTx, with respect to the Terminated Product(s), a non-exclusive, perpetual and irrevocable right and license, with the right to grant sublicenses (through multiple tiers), under Xxxxxxx’x Sole Inventions as necessary to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize such Terminated Product(s) in the Field in the Territory;

(ii) Effective as of such termination date, Xxxxxxx hereby assigns, and shall [***] transfer (at MeiraGTx’s reasonable expense, unless MeiraGTx terminated this Agreement, in whole or in part, for Xxxxxxx’x uncured material breach under Section 15.2(a), in which case such transfer shall be at Xxxxxxx’x reasonable expense) on an as-is, where-is basis, to MeiraGTx or MeiraGTx’s designee possession and ownership of all governmental or regulatory correspondence, conversation logs, filings and approvals (including all Regulatory Approvals and Pricing Approvals), and global safety database, in each case relating to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Terminated Product(s) and to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, and Xxxxxxx shall reasonably cooperate, at no additional out-of-pocket cost to Xxxxxxx, with requests by MeiraGTx for assistance necessary to facilitate MeiraGTx’s assumption of regulatory responsibilities for the Terminated Product(s) in the applicable countries in which direct transfer is not permitted during the [***] following such termination date;

(iii) Effective as of such termination date, Xxxxxxx hereby assigns (and shall ensure that its Affiliates or Sublicensees hereby assign) to MeiraGTx all Trademarks used solely with respect to the Terminated Product(s) in the Territory (together with the goodwill associated with the foregoing); and

(iv) Effective as of such termination date, Xxxxxxx shall [***] provide MeiraGTx with a summary of all Third Party agreements relating to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Terminated Product(s) to which Xxxxxxx is a party (other than those to be assigned to MeiraGTx) and shall assign to MeiraGTx any Third Party agreements solely relating to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Terminated Product(s), and MeiraGTx shall accept such assignment, including responsibility for all liabilities and obligations accruing under such agreements from and after the date of termination, in each case to the extent permitted thereunder. With respect to each agreement relating to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Terminated Product(s) that is not transferred to MeiraGTx, at MeiraGTx’s request, Xxxxxxx shall use reasonable efforts to facilitate a direct introduction between MeiraGTx and the Third Party counterparty to such agreement.

(d) Clinical Studies. If Xxxxxxx is conducting any Clinical Study on the date of notice of termination for any reason under this Agreement, then MeiraGTx shall notify Xxxxxxx within [***] after the notice of termination with regard to any Clinical Study, whether MeiraGTx elects to have Xxxxxxx (i) complete such Clinical Study on behalf of MeiraGTx (unless Xxxxxxx reasonably believes there is a material safety issue that should prevent the continuation of such Clinical Study), (ii) wind down such Clinical Study as soon as practicable, subject to compliance with ethical and legal requirements, or (iii) transfer such Clinical Study to MeiraGTx as soon as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Xxxxxxx terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 15.2(a) or 15.2(b), then this Section 15.4(d) shall not apply and Xxxxxxx, at its sole discretion, shall determine whether to continue or wind down any ongoing Clinical Study, subject to compliance with ethical and legal requirements; and each Party shall bear its own expenses incurred pursuant to such wind down. In addition, and subject to the foregoing:

(i) If MeiraGTx notifies Xxxxxxx of its election to have Xxxxxxx complete a Clinical Study on behalf of MeiraGTx, Xxxxxxx and MeiraGTx will, as necessary, negotiate in good faith a separate agreement pursuant to which Xxxxxxx would complete such Clinical Study. If the Parties fail to reach agreement within [***] after MeiraGTx makes such election, Xxxxxxx may wind down such Clinical Study, subject to compliance with ethical and legal requirements or, if requested by MeiraGTx, transfer such Clinical Study to MeiraGTx.

(ii) If MeiraGTx notifies Xxxxxxx of its election to have Xxxxxxx wind down such Clinical Study (or fails to provide notice within such [***] period), then Xxxxxxx shall wind-down such Clinical Study as soon as practicable, subject to compliance with ethical and legal requirements.

For clarity, termination of this Agreement, in whole or part, will not affect a Party’s rights to freely exploit CMC Development Inventions or CMC Development Patents in accordance with Article 11. In addition, upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement after the Effective Date, in whole or in part, each Party shall not undertake any further actions under this Agreement following such expiration or termination except in accordance with this Section 15.4.

(c) Xxxxxxx’x Research, Development or Commercialization activities with respect to any Xxxxxxx Research IRD Product pursuant to Section 2.2(a), Section 6.2(a), Section 7.2(a) or Article 9;

(d) Xxxxxxx’x Development or Commercialization activities with respect to any Clinical IRD Product, including conducting its Clinical Development Plan Activities pursuant to Section 6.1(c) and Section 6.1(e), regulatory activities after [***] pursuant to Section 7.1(a) and Commercialization activities pursuant to Article 9; or

except that Xxxxxxx shall not be obliged to so indemnify the MeiraGTx Indemnitees for any Claim to the extent that MeiraGTx has an obligation to indemnify Xxxxxxx Indemnitees pursuant to Section 17.1 for such Claim.

17.3. Indemnification Procedure.

(a) For the avoidance of doubt, all indemnification claims in respect of a Xxxxxxx Indemnitee or MeiraGTx Indemnitee shall be made solely by Xxxxxxx or MeiraGTx, respectively.

(b) A Party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) shall notify the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing reasonably [***] after the assertion against the Indemnified Party of any Claim or fact in respect of which the Indemnified Party intends to base a claim for indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”); provided, that the failure or delay to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation or liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that its ability to defend or resolve such Claim is adversely affected thereby. The Indemnification Claim Notice shall contain a description of the Claim and the nature and amount of the Claim (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Claim is known at such time). Upon the request of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall furnish [***] to the Indemnifying Party copies of all correspondence, communications, and official documents (including court documents) received or sent in respect of such Claim.

(c) Subject to Section 17.3(d) and Section 17.3(e), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice given to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense and handling of such Claim, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense, in which case Section 17.3(d) shall govern. The assumption of the defense of a Claim by the Indemnifying Party shall be construed as acknowledgement that the Indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify any Indemnitee with respect to the Claim, and shall constitute a waiver by the Indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against any Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Until the Indemnifying Party gives such written notice to the Indemnified Party, Section 17.3(e) shall govern. An Indemnifying Party will not have the right to conduct the defense of any Claim (a) brought by a Governmental Authority, (b) where such Claim involves injunctive relief (which cannot reasonably be severed from the proceeding for damages) or (c) where the Indemnified Party reasonably believes that the Indemnifying Party does not have the financial resources to discharge its indemnification obligation in full, unless the Indemnifying Party posts a bond to cover such potential indemnification obligations.

(d) Upon assumption of the defense of a Claim by the Indemnifying Party: (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to and shall assume sole control and responsibility for defending and handling the Claim; (ii) the Indemnifying Party may, at its own cost, appoint as counsel in connection with conducting the defense and handling of such Claim any law firm or counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party which is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party informed of the status of such Claim; and (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle such Claim on any terms the Indemnifying Party chooses; provided, however, that it shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), agree to a settlement of any Claim which could lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement or which admits any wrongdoing or responsibility for the Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party or which involves a conduct restriction or obligation of any kind. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. In particular, the Indemnified Party shall furnish such records, information, and testimony, provide witnesses, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials, and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include access during normal business hours by the Indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Claim, and making the Indemnified Party, the Indemnitees, and its and their employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any records or information provided.

(e) If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of the Indemnified Party in accordance with Section 17.3(c), the Indemnified Party may, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, select counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party in connection with conducting the defense and handling of such Claim and defend or handle such Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate. In such event, the Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the status of such Claim and shall not settle such Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. If the Indemnified Party defends or handles such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnified Party’s request but at no expense to the Indemnified Party, and shall be entitled to participate in the defense and handling of such Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense.

(f) Neither Party shall have the obligation to indemnify the other Party in connection with any settlement made without the Indemnifying Party’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

17.4. Mitigation of Loss.

Each Indemnified Party will take and will procure that the other Xxxxxxx Indemnitees (where Xxxxxxx is the Indemnified Party) or the MeiraGTx Indemnitees (where MeiraGTx is the Indemnified Party) take all such reasonable steps and actions in order to mitigate any potential Damages under this Article 17.

17.5. Limited Liability.

NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY SPECULATIVE OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NEGOTIATION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED HEREUNDER, OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES NOT REASONABLY FORESEEABLE AS A PROXIMATE RESULT OF THE BREACH OF A PARTY OF THIS AGREEMENT, ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE), REGARDLESS OF ANY NOTICE, AWARENESS OR ADVICE OF THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 17.5 IS INTENDED TO OR SHALL LIMIT OR RESTRICT INDEMNIFICATION FOR DAMAGES OF THE NATURE DESCRIBED ABOVE THAT ARE PAYABLE TO A THIRD PARTY FOLLOWING A FINAL ADJUDICATION OF THE MATTER IN QUESTION OR A SETTLEMENT EFFECTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

17.6. Insurance Obligations

Each Party, at its own expense, shall procure and maintain during the Term and for a period of [***] thereafter product liability insurance adequate to cover the activities to be conducted by such Party and its obligations under this Agreement that are consistent with normal business practices of prudent companies similarly situated; provided, however, that in no event shall such product liability insurance be written in amounts less than [***] per claim or per occurrence and annual aggregate. All such insurance shall include worldwide coverage. Prior to the initiation of any Clinical Study of a Product, the Party responsible for such Clinical Study shall secure, and maintain in full force and effect, clinical trial insurance as required by Applicable Law in those territories where such Clinical Study shall be conducted. It is understood that such insurance shall not be construed to create a limit of either Party’s liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under Section 17.1 and Section 17.2. Each Party shall provide the other Party with written evidence of such insurance upon request. Each Party shall provide the other Party with written notice at least [***] prior to the cancellation, non-renewal or material change of such insurance that could materially adversely affect the rights of such other Party hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party’s failure to maintain adequate insurance shall not relieve that Party of its obligations set forth in this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Xxxxxxx may meet its obligations under this Section 17.6 through self-insurance consistent with the levels set forth herein with prior written notice to MeiraGTx. In such event, Xxxxxxx shall provide a written certification of such self-insurance to MeiraGTx upon request.

If, after negotiating in good faith pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the Parties fail to reach agreement within [***] (or such longer period as agreed in writing by the Parties), then the Dispute may be referred to the Executive Officers for resolution at the request of either Party. If, after negotiating in good faith, the Executive Officers fail to reach agreement within [***] of submission to the Executive Officers (or such longer period as agreed in writing by the Parties), then either Party may upon written notice to the other submit the Dispute to non-binding mediation pursuant to Section 18.1(b).

(b) Mediation.

(i) If the Parties fail to resolve the Dispute pursuant to Section 18.1(a), the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute by confidential mediation in accordance with the then-current Mediation Procedure of the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR Mediation Procedure”) (xxx.xxxxxx.xxx) before initiating arbitration. The CPR Mediation Procedure shall control, except where it conflicts with these provisions, in which case these provisions control. The mediator shall be chosen pursuant to CPR Mediation Procedure. The mediation shall be held in New York, New York.

(ii) Either Party may initiate mediation by written notice to the other Party of the existence of a Dispute. The Parties agree to select a mediator within [***] of the notice and the mediation will begin [***] after the selection. The mediation will continue until the mediator, or either Party, declares in writing, no sooner than after the conclusion of [***] of a substantive mediation conference attended on behalf of each Party by a senior business person with authority to resolve the Dispute, that the Dispute cannot be resolved by mediation. In no event, however, shall mediation continue more than [***] from the initial notice by a Party to initiate meditation unless the Parties agree in writing to extend that period.

(iii) Any period of limitations that would otherwise expire between the initiation of mediation and its conclusion shall be extended until [***] after the conclusion of the mediation.

(c) Arbitration. If the Parties fail to resolve the Dispute pursuant to Section 18.1(a) or Section 18.1(b), and a Party desires to pursue resolution of the Dispute, subject to Section 18.5, the Dispute shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration as follows:

(i) The Dispute shall be finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the then-current CPR Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration Rules (“CPR Rules”) (xxx.xxxxxx.xxx), except where they conflict with these provisions, in which case these provisions control. The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York. All aspects of the arbitration shall be treated as confidential.

(ii) Whenever a Party decides to institute such arbitration proceedings, such Party shall as [***] as practicable, give written notice to that effect to the other Party. The law of this arbitration clause shall be the law of New York, USA, the seat and venue of the arbitration shall be New York, USA, and the arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in the English language. The arbitrators will be chosen from the CPR Panel of Distinguished Neutrals, unless a candidate not on such panel is approved by both Parties. Each arbitrator shall be a lawyer with at least fifteen (15) years’ experience with a law firm or corporate law department of over twenty-five (25) lawyers or who was a judge of a court of general jurisdiction. There shall be three (3) arbitrators for the Dispute, selected as follows: each Party shall select an arbitrator in accordance with the “screened” appointment procedure provided in CPR Rule 5.4, and the chair will be chosen in accordance with CPR Rule 6.4. If, however, the aggregate award sought by the Parties is less than [***] and equitable relief is not sought, a single arbitrator shall be appointed in accordance with the CPR Rules. Candidates for the arbitrator position(s) may be interviewed by representatives of the Parties in advance of their selection, provided that all Parties are represented.

(iii) The hearing on the merits shall be concluded within [***] after the initial prehearing conference and the award shall be rendered within [***] of the conclusion of the hearing, or of any post-hearing briefing, which briefing shall be completed by both sides within [***] after the conclusion of the hearing, unless the arbitrator(s) determine(s), in a reasoned decision, that the interest of justice or the complexity of the case requires that the time limit for concluding the hearing on the merits or rendering the award be extended. In the event the Parties cannot agree upon a schedule, then the arbitrator(s) shall set the schedule following the time limits set forth above as closely as practical.

(iv) The hearing on the merits will be concluded in [***] or less, unless the arbitrator(s) determine(s), in a reasoned decision, that the interest of justice or the complexity of the case requires that the time limit for concluding the hearing on the merits or rendering the award be extended. Multiple hearing days will be scheduled consecutively to the greatest extent possible. A transcript of the testimony adduced at the hearing shall be made and shall be made available to each Party.

(v) The Parties shall allow and participate in discovery in accordance with the United States Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Unresolved discovery disputes shall be submitted to the arbitrator(s).

(vi) The arbitrator(s) shall decide the merits of any Dispute in accordance with the law governing this Agreement, without application of any principle of conflict of laws that would result in reference to a different law. The arbitrator(s) may not apply principles such as “amiable compositeur” or “natural justice and equity.”

(vii) The arbitrator(s) are expressly empowered to decide dispositive motions in advance of any hearing and shall endeavor to decide such motions as would a United States District Court Judge sitting in the jurisdiction whose substantive law governs.

(viii) The arbitrator(s) shall render a written opinion stating the reasons upon which the award is based. The Parties consent to the entry of judgment on any award rendered hereunder. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(ix) The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and the prevailing Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award. When any Dispute occurs and when any Dispute is under arbitration, except for the matters in Dispute, the Parties shall continue to fulfill their respective obligations and shall be entitled to exercise their rights under this Agreement. Except in a proceeding to enforce the results of the arbitration or as otherwise required by Applicable Law, neither Party nor any arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each Party to the Dispute shall be entitled to seek provisional remedies, interim measures of protection and emergency relief, if possible, such as attachment, preliminary injunction, replevin or other equitable relief, from the arbitral tribunal or any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the Applicable Laws of that jurisdiction in order to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, preserve its status and priority as a creditor or preserve the subject matter of the Dispute.

(d) Waivers. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES: (I) ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL OF ANY ISSUE BY JURY AND (II) ANY CLAIM FOR ATTORNEY FEES, COSTS AND PREJUDGMENT INTEREST; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING WILL NOT LIMIT A PARTY’S OBLIGATIONS IN RESPECT OF DAMAGES CLAIMED BY A THIRD PARTY.

18.2. Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts or choice of laws provision thereof (“Governing Law”). The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (1980) shall not apply to the interpretation of this Agreement.

18.3. Exclusions.

Nothing in this Article 18 shall preclude a Party from: (a) seeking and obtaining in any competent court injunctive or equitable relief to preserve the status quo or prevent immediate harm to the Party; or (b) submitting any dispute, controversy or Claim relating to the scope, validity, enforceability or infringement of any Patents or Trademarks to adjudication in accordance with the Applicable Laws of the country or jurisdiction in which the relevant patent is pending or has been issued, including before any patent or trademark administrative body in the country in which such Patent or Trademark was granted or arose.

district court sitting in New York, New York or an appellate body of such court, and for a patent pending in or issued by any other country, any competent court having jurisdiction over the subject of the Patent controversy or Claim sitting in the capital of such country (or if there is not any such competent court in the capital, a location reasonably proximate to the capital), and each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts or administrative bodies.

18.4. Cumulative Remedies.

Unless expressly stated otherwise in this Agreement, no remedy referred to in this Agreement is intended to be exclusive, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy referred to in this Agreement or otherwise available to either Party under Applicable Law.

18.5. Injunctive Relief.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Parties each stipulate and agree that given the nature of the Confidential Information and Intellectual Property Rights and the competitive damage and irreparable harm that may result to a Party upon unauthorized disclosure, use or transfer of its Confidential Information or Intellectual Property Rights to any Third Party, monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of Section 4.4, Article 11, Article 12 or Article 13 by a Party. In the case of any such breach or threatened breach, in addition to all other remedies, the non-breaching Party will be entitled to seek equitable relief (including temporary or permanent restraining orders, specific performance or other injunctive relief) for any such breach or threatened breach from any court of competent jurisdiction without first submitting to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 18.1.

19. GENERAL PROVISIONS

19.1. Assignment.

Subject to Section 4.6(d) and Section 4.6(e), neither Party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the other Party’s prior written consent, except that either Party may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the other Party’s consent to: (a) an Affiliate of the assigning Party; or (b) any Third Party successor or purchaser of all or substantially all of its business or assets to which this Agreement relates, whether in a merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or other similar transaction. In addition, Xxxxxxx may, without the prior written consent of MeiraGTx, assign its rights and obligations, in whole or in part, under this Agreement to a Third Party, where Xxxxxxx or its Affiliate is required, or makes a good faith determination based on advice of counsel, to divest any Products in order to comply with Applicable Law or the order of any Governmental Authority as a result of a merger or acquisition or similar transaction. In any such case, Xxxxxxx shall provide MeiraGTx with advance notice of any such assignment. Any permitted assignee will assume all obligations of its assignor under this Agreement (or related to the assigned portion in case of a partial assignment). For clarity: (i) an assignment to an Affiliate will terminate, and all rights so assigned will revert to the assigning Party, if and when such Affiliate ceases to be an Affiliate of the assigning Party; and (ii) sublicensing of any licenses granted under this Agreement will be governed by Section 4.1(c) and Section 4.3. Any attempted assignment in contravention of the foregoing will be null and void. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

19.2. Extension to Affiliates.

Each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any rights under this Agreement through delegation of its obligations or rights to any of its Affiliates. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and will cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement will be deemed a breach by such Party. Any reference to performance by a Party hereunder includes any performance by its Affiliates.

19.3. Severability.

If any of the provisions of this Agreement become void or unenforceable as a matter of law, then this Agreement shall be construed as if such provision were not contained herein, the remainder of this Agreement shall be in full force and effect, and the Parties will negotiate in good faith to substitute any invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable provision such that this Agreement conforms as nearly as possible with the original intent of the Parties.

19.4. Force Majeure.

If either Party is prevented from performing its obligations under this Agreement due to any contingency beyond its reasonable control (“Force Majeure”), including acts of Governmental Authorities, any war, terrorism, hostilities between nations, civil commotions, riots, national industry strikes, sabotage, fire, floods and acts of nature such as typhoons, hurricanes, earthquakes, or tsunamis, the Party so affected shall not be responsible to the other Party for any delay or failure of performance of its obligations hereunder, for so long as and to the extent that such Force Majeure prevents such performance.
