*CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

7.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States of America, without regard to the choice of law principles that might otherwise be applied in such jurisdiction.

7.3 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Negotiation and Notice. In the event of any dispute, claim, controversy or disagreement (each, a “Dispute”) arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Agreement including any question regarding this Agreement’s existence, validity or termination, the Parties shall first seek resolution of such Dispute by negotiation between their respective senior management. Such negotiation shall be deemed to commence upon the service by either Sanofi or BMS upon the other of a written notice (a “Dispute Resolution Notice”) under this Section 7.3(a).

(b) If a Dispute subject to negotiation under Section 7.3(a) is not finally resolved within thirty (30) days following receipt by either Sanofi or BMS of a Dispute Resolution Notice, the Dispute shall be finally resolved by arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”). The arbitral tribunal shall be composed of three (3) arbitrators. Each of Sanofi and BMS shall nominate one (1) arbitrator. The two (2) arbitrators so nominated shall nominate the presiding arbitrator. If either Sanofi or BMS fails to nominate an arbitrator in its Request for Arbitration or within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice of the nomination of an arbitrator by the other Party, such arbitrator shall be appointed by the ICC Court. If the two (2) arbitrators to be nominated by Sanofi and BMS fail to agree upon a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the nomination of the second arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the ICC Court. The place of arbitration shall be Paris, France and the language of the arbitration shall be English. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the ICC Rules of Arbitration, each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses relating to such arbitration and all related proceedings, including fees for legal representation. Each Party shall continue to perform its respective obligations under this Agreement and this Agreement shall remain in effect while the Dispute is being resolved. The Parties agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Definitive Agreement, or the Settlement Agreement (including the China Opt-Out Letter) or any Alliance Agreement (as such terms are defined in the Definitive Agreement) shall be resolved in a single arbitration before the ICC, regardless of how many parties or agreements are implicated, and specifically waive any argument that a dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be resolved in multiple arbitrations before the ICC.

7.4 Specific Performance. Each Party agrees that the Developed Know-How is unique, and each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the other Parties would be damaged irreparably if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each Party shall be entitled to seek specific performance and/or interim relief, and agrees that the arbitral tribunal constituted under Section 7.3(b) shall have the power to order specific performance or grant provisional, interim, or conservatory measures, including but not limited to provisional injunctive relief. The Parties undertake to comply forthwith with any such provisional, interim, or conservatory

*CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

measures ordered by the arbitral tribunal and agree that such measures may, to the extent not precluded by applicable law, be enforceable as a final award in any court of competent jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this provision shall prevent any Party from seeking conservatory or interim measures, including, but not limited to, temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions or their equivalent, from any court of competent jurisdiction before the arbitral tribunal is constituted under Section 7.3(b) or, thereafter, upon the order of the arbitral tribunal.

7.5 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties (including the partners of the SNC Partnership, each in its capacity as partner thereof) and permitted sub-licensees and assigns, and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to, or shall confer upon, any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever.

7.6 Assignment.

(a) No Party hereto may assign any of its rights or obligations to a Third Party under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties and any assignment without such consent shall be null and void and of no effect. Each Party may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate of such Party without the written consent of the other Parties, provided that the assigning Party shall remain liable for its Affiliate’s performance hereunder.

(b) In no event shall the SNC Partnership or its Affiliates be restricted in their ability to appoint distributors for Products or to sublicense their rights hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof, so long as such appointment or sublicensing does not or would not reasonably be expected to result in an assignment in violation of this Section 7.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sanofi and its Affiliates shall be permitted to assign this Agreement without BMS’s consent in connection with any divestiture permitted under Section 12.7 of the Definitive Agreement.

7.7 Severability. If any term or other provision hereof is held to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by applicable law or public policy, all other terms and provisions hereof shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic effect or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

7.8 Waivers and Amendments. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement shall be valid unless (i) in a writing signed by the Parties referring specifically to this Agreement and stating the Parties’ intention to modify or amend the same and (ii) BMS has provided its prior written consent to such modification or amendment. Any waiver of any term or condition

*CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

of this Agreement shall be in a writing signed by the Party sought to be charged with such waiver referring specifically to the term or condition to be waived, and no such waiver shall be deemed to constitute the waiver of any other breach of the same or of any other provision hereof.

7.9 Headings. All titles and captions contained in this Agreement are for the convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation hereof.

7.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and all prior agreements relative thereto which are not contained herein are hereby terminated.

7.11 No Partnership or Joint Venture.

Such Party shall give the other Party prompt notice of any interruption of performance on account of Force Majeure, and of the resumption of such performance, and shall keep the other Party informed on a current basis as to the steps being taken to remove, and the anticipated time of removal of, the circumstances resulting in such Force Majeure.
